She can kill with a kiss. But can assassin Tyree also heal one man's grief, and bring peace to a galaxy threatened by war?
For Tyree of the Su, being an assassin isn't simply something she was trained for. It's the sole reason for her existence. A genetically enhanced clone—one of many in Refuge—she's about to learn her secluded lifestyle, and that of all her kind, is under threat by a race capable of neutralizing their special talents to leave them defenseless.
For Zander D'joren, being a diplomat has not only cost him his appearance, but also the love of his life. Scarred, grieving, he must nonetheless continue in his role as co-delegate to the fearsome Tier-vane or risk a conflict that could only end one way.
Now both of them need to keep each other alive and maintain a perilous deception long enough to renegotiate the treaty with the Tier-vane, or throw their people into a war that could wipe out Terrans and Inc-Su alike. But there's more at stake than humanity, whether true or modified. Can the love growing between them save them both? Or merely hasten their destruction?
As a teen I was a practicing witch and interested in alternative therapies. I studied aromatherapy, and was a firm believer in spiritualism, life after death, and the concept of auras. Later, that idea of auras bled into my love for scifi and the theory behind the Jedi religion—how the Force was an energy field binding all living things. That was something I could still believe in even when I lost my faith in everything else and having never been what most would consider as religious.
A lot of my stories feature psi abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis, and even teleportation (though this involves wormhole theory). A strange mixture of science in the form of SF, and what might be considered magical, or at least paranormal elements. But then, Star Wars, with its mix of fantasy in the scifi, has been a huge influence on my writing.
So when I decided I was going to write a story about a very succubus-like heroine but set in a far future out in space, I guess that same mixture of paranormal and scifi was inevitable. And rather than my succubus being a demon sent to seduce men in their sleep and suck them dry of energy, Tyree became a cloned assassin, capable of stealing the energy—the living aura—from any target she was sent after. While auras are considered more a luminous halo representing the spiritual holiness of a particular person, I've depicted them as a living energy field much like the description of the Force, with colours representing the emotions of the person concerned. Tyree considers the taking of them a perk of her trade, uses them to judge people in the same way others might use body language, and feels the need of them for comfort when away from her own kind and home. But when it came to what different colours signify, some of the information conflicts, so I went with what they meant to me personally.
Green – cool, calm and relaxed, like summer grass or sunlight through trees.
Red – bright red for fury and fear, deep crimson for passion
Silver – sharp and bright=pain, hazy=drugs, stupor
Yellow – fear
Gold/brown – warmth, steadiness
Grey – shielded
Black – death, injury, grief
Ragged aura=chaos, lack of control, emotional turmoil
Steady aura=strength, confidence, control
Perhaps not the most logical or technically correct in terms of parapsychology and spiritual practice, but it works for me. So Tyree sees the universe defined in a rainbow of color that she not only uses to evaluate her world, but feeds from as well. An energy field that ties her to all the living things in the universe. But sometimes, it just makes life more confusing for her.
Do you think being able to see someone's emotions as colors would be a help or a hindrance?

Another period of Daylight Savings Time has expired, and we return to what my mother always referred as God's time. We all have stories about daylight time miscues, misadventures, and (as my granddaughter calls them) mess-ups.
In the November 9, 2010 Kansas City Star, there is an article entitled "When Your Family Gathers for Holiday, Create a Family Health History." [page A1] The Associated Press article talks about the value of spending some holiday family time to question your relatives about your family's health history.
I am a big fan of the Antiques Road Show. Once in a while I take a look at the things that I have collected over the years and wonder if anything may be of value to someone one day. Well, the Antiques Road Show has only been to town a few times, and who knows when they'll be back. However, there are other sources at the library to tell me how much I can hope to see from Great Aunt Edna's Pickle Castor.
Belated congratulations to the MCPL Book Cart Drill Team and Independence Branches for winning First Place in the "Commercial-Other" Division at the Independence Halloween Parade. The Independence Halloween Parade is a rite of passage for many students in the area. Every student that has ever played in an Independence School band can tell you their own thrilling or chilling story of marching in the parade. It may be another parade to some, but for others, it's a tradition. The team did a great job, thanks for representing!

One thing I've learned since working at Mid Continent Public Library is that there are books written on all kinds of subjects. Some are amusing and some are just, well, out there.
Here's a list of books that made us cock an eyebrow or run for our library cards:
Famous author, radio personality, and lecturer Dave Ramsey stresses knowing where your money goes, day by day and month by month. The purchase of things like books, magazines, music CD's, and other "library-like" materials fall under a budget category called Miscellaneous, Recreation and Entertainment in the book Total Money Makeover by Ramsey.
Thanksgiving is a terrific time to rest up, have some fun, and of course, overstuff on turkey. Our staff who lead storytimes also need a break, and they get one during Thanksgiving week. Since many families are traveling and schools are themselves only in session for two days that week, Boardwalk Branch will have no storytimes during the week of November 22nd.
We all hope you will have a great Thanksgiving holiday.

Tomatito Radio
One of the best guitarists associated with the nuevo flamenco generation, Tomatito (born Jos+¬ Fern+índez Torres in Almer+¡a, Spain in 1958) grew up in a family of prestigious flamenco lineage, and at only 12 he had managed to impress none other than Paco de Luc+¡a. Still in his teens, Tomatito began to accompany famous cantaores, such as Enrique Morente and La Susi, but he attained definitive flamenco stardom as the great El Camar+¦n de la Isla's guitarist of choice. Tomatito became Camar+¦n's inseparable sidekick during the late singer's last 18 years of life, and took part in legendary tours and recordings such as La Leyenda del Tiempo. Tomatito also developed a solo career, dazzling audiences at festivals in Spain and abroad, playing at some of the world's most renowned venues, and winning countless accolades, as well as composing music for films and orchestra and collaborating on various projects by other artists. By 2013 he had released seven solo albums and one anthology. ~ Mariano PrunesPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool.
I have a dream, that one day Al Sharpton will apologize for the Tawana Brawley hoax. I have a dream that one day, Jesse Jackson will step behind a pulpit and confess his sins, ask forgiveness and return all the money he got by shaking down people over the years.
Getting closer though the cons are trying to drag us back to Jim Crow days.
No, your dream is for everyone to fall in lockstep with your beliefs.
You are wrong on two counts. This country has been racially divided for over 200 years; this animosity has been gradually declining, but it is still very much present (as the reactions to the Trayvon Martin trial demonstrate). And electing any president may increase or decrease racial tensions, but cannot eliminate them. Only time, economic justice and equality can do that. Integrated marriages are a good sign, but a small one.
"My dream is for everyone to get along and not be racially or politically divided."
And yet you do your best everyday to subvert your dream.
And I have a dream that RWNJs like you will one day stop with the ignorance and lies in pursuit of your partisan agenda and one day seek the betterment of ALL people, not just those who think like you. Or rather who don't think, like you.
Whereas I find your patronization and racially targeted characterization highly offensive, I do agree with what you wrote. Just not what you implied. There are white women who pop out babies "because it's fun and I gets another welfare check." There are Native American children born out of wedlock, Caucasian "bastards," illegitimate Hispanic children. So to imply that is a "black only" issue is disingenous. But like I said, I agree with the concept that MLK would not like the state of affairs of his race, nor would he like the very same issues or the state of affairs of society in general.
I still claim that the best path forward (and that's what we all want, isn't it?) is for there to be jobs for people.
If Republicans truly wanted to help minorities without using welfare, they would support jobs programs or come up with their own.
Unless they do not want to move forward.
Did you really say "We've got to start calling a spade a spade again." Did you really?? Oh, my gosh, she did.

Israeli entrepreneurship and the developing world
Agriculture in Africa 311.
(photo credit:Courtesy No Camels)
As we enter 2013, it seems like a fitting time to question what lies in store
for the "Start-Up Nation" in the coming years. A long-standing debate exists on
the source of entrepreneurial opportunities.With Israel's strong ties to
America and Europe, it is unsurprising that most of the opportunities Israelis
pursue involve developing gizmos and gadgets that answer recognized needs in the
Western world. In this respect Israel the "Start-Up Nation" is certainly at the
forefront of the types of innovative technologies that improve Western
consumers' lives by making them simpler and more convenient or
entertaining.However, Europe and North America comprise only 15 percent
of the world's population and its share in global GDP is constantly shrinking.
Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia, on the other hand, are seen as strategically
significant and rapidly growing new markets with annual average real GDP growth
rates of 5.7% and 7.9%, respectively, compared to the OECD average of 1.65% in
the past decade.These countries are also places where a multitude of
crucial basic needs – ranging from food and water to basic sanitation and
medical care – remain largely unfulfilled.In some parts of the world
there is huge competition in the development of smartphone applications to read
the calorie count of a QR code, while in other regions people are still not
receiving enough calories to meet their daily needs. On a global level, it seems
that Adam Smith's "invisible hand" does not seem to reach far
enough.However, finding solutions to the challenges faced by world's
four billion poorest people need not necessarily call for ethically driven
interventions such as increased foreign aid or charitable donations that often
breed dependency. Rather, it is becoming more and more recognized that some of
the solutions may lie in imparting the information and knowledge that could
allow entrepreneurs to overcome these market failures and turn the world's vast
needs into profitable and mutually beneficial
opportunities.INCREASINGLY, BUSINESSES are becoming aware of such
opportunities and shifting their focus to emerging markets, which are seen to be
the source of future growth opportunities. There are innumerable examples of
successful ventures in this field, from Safaricom – which together with local
partners developed M-Pesa, a mobile banking system in Kenya that is now
generating revenue of $203 million and directly employing over 50,000 people –
to Sproxil, a company that has developed a text-message-based drug verification
system that is saving thousands of lives and millions of dollars on counterfeit
drugs each year.But it's not only hi-tech. Companies such as
Procter&Gamble or Unilever have for many years been focusing on their
expansion into the developing world. Even products as simple as soap can prevent
diarrhoea, which causes over 2.6 million deaths each year.A few Israeli
companies are also active in the developing world. For example, Netafim, with
its drip-irrigation systems, has been selling Israeli technologies to farmers in
developing countries for over 40 years. Other companies, such as Arava Power,
are realizing the opportunities that the developing world offers for renewable
energy technologies. These businesses are not doing this because it's good
corporate social responsibility, although they do have dual social and profit
motives. They are doing it because they understand that targeting these
populations makes good sense financially.INSTEAD OF designing another
expensive hi-tech product for the tiny fraction of the world that can afford
such items, re-focusing Israel's entrepreneurial ability on solving these
problems provides far more exciting opportunities. With its close proximity to
Africa and Asia and its expertise in water, agriculture, renewable energy and
medical technologies, Israel has the potential to be one of the leading sources
of innovative solutions to problems facing the developing world.Of
course, "doing well by doing good" is no easy task and many such ventures have
failed in the past. However, this is the nature of entrepreneurship and for
those that succeed, there is a potentially sizable pay-off, both financially and
socially.Such a task demands not only innovative technologies, but also
inventive business models to accompany them. Businesses need to find ways to
generate revenues despite the limited budgets and volatile earnings of their
target population. This is a challenge not only for the Israeli hi-tech word but
also for Israeli businesspeople who need to understand how to commercialize
these products in often challenging market conditions.For example,
pay-as-you-go solar power or single-sachet packaging have been found to be
solutions to the poor's small and volatile cash flow patterns and lack of
savings.NGOS AND aid agencies with experience in these countries who
understand the local context and social practices also have an important role to
play in identifying these needs and helping to generate appropriate solutions.
For example, the Jewish Heart for Africa organization, which works to bring
sustainable Israeli technologies to African villages, has accumulated much
experience since its establishment in 2008, experience that can be utilized by
Israeli companies looking to enter these markets while expanding the JHFA's
potential reach.Although priorities may differ, the general goals of
these different players can be aligned as the efforts required to make such
businesses viable are similarly important for generating systemic and
sustainable social change, desired by NGOs.Internationally, these
different worlds are beginning to merge. All the top business schools feature
classes on social entrepreneurship or "business model innovation for the base of
the pyramid," and divisions focussing on private-sector-led development have
become a feature of most leading international development agencies. The
question is, where does Israel stand in this burgeoning
"business-for-development" movement?THIS IS the question that will be posed at
the ID2 (Israel Designed, International Development) conference that will be
taking place from January 7-9 in Mitzpe Ramon, which will focus on bringing
together leaders from the private sector, government agencies and
non-governmental organizations to brainstorm on harnessing Israeli innovation to
solve international development challenges.Knowledge of the developing
world and the needs of its people is going to be a crucial element for future
success on a global level and the sooner Israeli entrepreneurs understand this,
the sooner they will begin to reap the financial and social rewards that these
development opportunities provide.The writer holds a master's degree in
international development from the London School of Economics and is working as
a financial analyst. She is the conference coordinator of the ID2 conference.

This greatly depends on your relationship to the bride and groom. Though you're never technically required to bring a gift, it's highly recommended you do and it's considered a sign of congratulations and thanks to the couple for involving you in their special day.
As a rule of thumb, spend less than $100 if you're not a close friend. The same rule applies if you're a plus-one. Since you are attending, it would be very kind to get something small. Consider going in on a gift with your date, or buying something complimentary. For instance, if your date buys those nice salt and pepper grinders off the couple's registry, consider buying some organic sea salt and whole peppercorns to go with it. It's not a very expensive gift, but it's a small gesture that will go a long way with the bride and groom (and your date).

Mercury set to reach 31C in parts of the UK
Britain is set to bask in more sunshine and maximum temperatures of 31C in some parts of the country, according to forecasters.
Tuesday was the hottest day of the year so far with the mercury tipping 30C.
The warmest temperature was recorded at Eton Dorney Lake in Buckinghamshire, where the thermometer soared to 30.2C (86F), while St James's Park in central London and Charlwood, close to Gatwick Airport in Surrey, saw temperatures hit 30.1C and 30C respectively.

Rhodes and Symi
Very beautiful old city and ruins. 300 days of sunshine a year. Visited the Knights of St John castle. We have now visited the 7 wonders of the Ancient Greek and Roman world without really trying! Very warm day again but moderately cooler at 31 than they had 3 days ago - 47c. Sailed to Symi this afternoon, a very beautiful town with colourful houses perched on the side of the harbour. Had to have a banana ...

Back in Monolithos for the night, we delighted in yet another fantastic dinner in Greece at a small taverna there. We laughed and laughed the rest of the day and night about the tow truck driver's terseness but were grateful to be back on track with an operating car and a great place to stay with amazing views from high above the sea.
The Colossus of Rhodes is a medieval walled city
I chew the human to bits and then swallow the bits of flesh floating under the water. I swim under the water searching for more stuff to eat. As I swim across the large expanse of water I run into a few submarine mines and they explode the moment I hit them burning my flesh, but the mines don't kill me so I swim to the surface to regain some of my health by eating another unlucky person. Out of nowhere a huge great white shark swims out of the depths of ...

Next, we were off to the airport to pick up our Avis rental car. I mention the company name only because it was a lousy experience from the beginning to (nearly) the end. ...

Rhodes town sits at the nothernmost tip of the island.

Thus, its historic center, seemingly surrounded by water, is ...

KIMBALL, MN (KARE/CNN) - In her first year as a teacher, Katie Pettit quickly figured out cell phones in the middle of her math class are a greater challenge than any algorithm she could assign.
"It gets to the point where they're on the constantly and most of them are playing games and that kind of stuff," Pettit said.
At Kimball Area High School in Kimball, MN, students can have their phones in class and it's up to the teachers to decide the rules.
On Monday, Ms. Pettit offered her more than 70 students a choice: hand in your phones for a week and she would not hand out a final exam.
As you can imagine, all but a few signed on, with cell phone signals stuck in a box on Pettit's desk for a week.
"Let's check what's going on Twitter or something, and Instagram," student Ariel Laabs said. "[Then] I'm like, 'oh, I don't have my phone, I can't.'"
It didn't take long for some students to improvise. A fan of country music classics, junior Jake Leither broke out the old Walkman as hundreds of tunes sit trapped.
You would think students would feel trapped as well, but they don't.
While the grade is important, they also learned one of life's other equations – students minus phones equal a life lesson.

The #1 source for fashion inspiration from real people around the world.
HYPE the looks you like to make them hot —or post your own! learn more or sign up now!
My uniform of choice in the case of an apocalypse consists of none other than Dr. Martens' acid, oil, fat, petrol and alkali sole repellent boots. They guarantee survival from either a zombie or alien invasion, with a a steel cap ensuring your position as group leader. Maybe I have been watching too much Walking Dead. Nonetheless I'm still adamant on the fact that these are scenarios that are not that unlikely and I would prefer to be prepared.
A pair of heavy leather trousers with side zips, preferrably by Balmain, are essential; adaptable to your shoewear without compromising the aesthetic appeal, as well as offering protection from fatal zombie bites and cold nights.
Since 80% of survival consists of fleeing from imminent death you will be running a lot. A perforated sports jersey will offer optimum ventilation, keeping you looking and feeling cool.
Lastly but not least, a homage to humanity and its tragic demise: the ghetto bomber. The colour trio of black, red and gold not only makes me feel and appear patriotic but would also appeal to the Gods of hip hop, which are always beneficial to have on your side in the event of such a horror scenario. Just think of Shaun of the Dead; it could happen.

Doors Drummer John Densmore Opens Up About Legal Battle With Bandmates
Doors drummer John Densmore has been making the publicity rounds for his new tell-all memoir, 'The Doors: Unhinged -- Jim Morrison's Legacy Goes on Trial.'
Doors drummer John Densmore has been making the publicity rounds for his new tell-all memoir, 'The Doors: Unhinged -- Jim Morrison's Legacy Goes on Trial.'
Should the remaining members of the Doors reunite (it seems unlikely), drummer John Densmore knows who he'd want to fill Jim Morrison's space in front of the microphone. It's not clear if he's being cute or funny, but during a recent radio interview he said Jimmy Fallon could get the job done.
He's been dead for decades -- and the subject of countless retrospectives ever since -- but that doesn't mean we've heard and seen everything Jim Morrison committed to tape before he passed away. The latest example? A newly unearthed candid interview the Doors front man gave to director and journalist Howard Smith in 1969.
The Doors may be reflecting on the 'Live at the Bowl '68' DVD and live album, but for Robby Krieger it's a little bit bittersweet considering the rift that he and Ray Manzarek have with the band's longtime drummer John Densmore.
Rock legends The Doors are about to release a concert that's been fully restored from 1968, and you can check it out on Facebook.
Live At The Bowl '68 captures the band at it's peak, in a never before seen concert from the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles
In advance of the Oct. 23 release of the 'Live at the Bowl '68,' a clip of the the Doors performing 'Moonlight Drive' has been uploaded to YouTube. The three-minute-plus long video (seen below) shows off the high quality of the 20-song set, remastered for this special DVD and Blu-ray. Even songs thought lost to technical troubles have been restored to give fans the complete concert.
In the spring of 1969, Doors frontman Jim Morrison allegedly exposed himself to a concert audience. Over a year later, on Sept. 20, 1970, the long arm of the law finally caught up to him, and he was arrested.
If you're looking for a reason to stay in tonight, PBS has it as their 'My Music' series served up 'Ed Sullivan's Top Performers.' The special, airing on PBS stations across the country, takes a look back at the longtime variety show host's top music acts.
The long-lasting appeal of the Doors is evident in the 40th anniversary edition of their album 'L.A. Woman' that was released earlier this year. In a new interview, guitarist Robbie Krieger spoke about how having longtime engineer Bruce Botnick produce the record instead of Paul A. Rothchild, who had helmed the band's first five albums, positively affected the sessions, in particular the mindset of singer Jim Morrison.

France Bans Muslim Street Prayers
"An Occupation Without Tanks and Soldiers"
The French government has enacted a new law prohibiting Muslims from praying in the streets, but on the first day of the ban hundreds of Muslims defied the law by taking over streets and sidewalks in Paris and other French cities to pray.
The ban, which took effect on September 16, is the government's response to growing public anger in France over the phenomenon of Muslim street prayers.
Every Friday, thousands of Muslims from Paris to Marseille and elsewhere close off streets and sidewalks (by doing so, they close down local businesses and trap non-Muslim residents in their homes and offices) to accommodate overflowing crowds for midday prayers. Some mosques have also begun broadcasting sermons and chants of "Allahu Akbar" via loudspeakers in the streets.
The weekly spectacles, which have been documented by dozens of videos posted on Youtube.com (here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here), have provoked a mixture of anger, frustration and disbelief. But despite public complaints, local authorities have until now declined to intervene, largely because they have been afraid of sparking riots.
The issue of illegal street prayers was catapulted to the top of the French national political agenda in December 2010, when Marine Le Pen, the charismatic new leader of the far-right National Front party, denounced them as an "occupation without tanks or soldiers."
During a gathering in the east central French city of Lyon on December 10, Le Pen compared Muslims praying in the streets to Nazi occupation. She said: "For those who want to talk a lot about World War II, if it is about occupation, then we could also talk about it [Muslim prayers in the streets], because that is occupation of territory. It is an occupation of sections of the territory, of districts in which religious laws apply. It is an occupation. There are of course no tanks, there are no soldiers but it is nevertheless an occupation and it weighs heavily on local residents."
Many French voters agree: the issue of Muslim street prayers – and the broader question of the role of Islam in French society – has become a major issue ahead of the 2012 presidential elections.
According to a recent survey by Ifop for the France-Soir newspaper, nearly 40% of French voters agree with Len Pen's views that Muslim prayer in the streets resembles an occupation.
Moreover, an opinion poll published by Le Parisien newspaper shows that voters view Le Pen, who has criss-crossed the country arguing that France has been invaded by Muslims and betrayed by its elite, as the candidate best suited to deal with the growing problem of runaway Muslim immigration.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy, whose popularity is at record lows less than one year before the first round of next year's presidential election, is worried about Le Pen's advance in the opinion polls. He now seems determined not to allow Le Pen to monopolize the issue of Islam in France.
Sarkozy recently called Muslim prayers in the street "unacceptable" and said that the street cannot be allowed to become "an extension of the mosque." He also warned that the overflow of Muslim faithful on to the streets at prayer time when mosques are packed to capacity risks undermining the French secular tradition separating state and religion.
French Interior Minister Claude Guéant told Le Figaro newspaper that Muslims who continue to pray in the street will be arrested: "My vigilance will be unflinching for the law to be applied. Praying in the street is not dignified for religious practice and violates the principles of secularism. If anyone happens to be recalcitrant we will put an end to it."
At the same time, the French government has tried to appease angry Muslims by announcing that they can pray in an abandoned fire station in the Goutte d'Or district in Paris until a new, larger mosque is built in 2013.
According to the terms of the lease agreement, two mosques located in northern Paris will rent the 2,000 square meters (21,000 square feet) barracks on Boulevard Ney from the French state for €30,000 ($40,000) per year for a period of three years. Around 5,000 Muslim worshippers are expected to turn up for prayers there.
Islamic mosques are being built more often in France than Roman Catholic churches. Nearly 150 new mosques are currently under construction in France, home to the biggest Muslim community in Europe. The mosque-building projects are at various stages of completion, according to Mohammed Moussaoui, the president of the Muslim Council of France (CFCM), who provided the data in an August 2 interview with the French radio station RTL.
The total number of mosques in France has already doubled to more than 2,000 during just the past ten years, according to a research report "Constructing Mosques: The Governance of Islam in France and the Netherlands."
France's most prominent Muslim leader, Dalil Boubakeur, who is rector of the Grand Mosque of Paris, recently called for the number of mosques in the country to be doubled again – to 4,000 – to meet growing demand.
Boubakeur said the construction of even more mosques – paid for by French taxpayers – would ease the "pressure, frustration and the sense of injustice" felt by many French Muslims. "Open a mosque and you close a prison," Boubakeur said. About 70% of all inmates in the French prison system are Muslim.
In August, a new mega-mosque for 2,000 worshipers was inaugurated in Strasbourg, where the Muslim population has reached 15%. Construction also continues apace of a new mega-mosque in Marseille, France's second-largest city where the Muslim population has reached 25% (or 250,000). The Grand Mosque – which at more than 8,300 square meters (92,000 square feet) will accommodate up to 7,000 worshippers in a vast prayer hall – is designed to be the biggest and most potent symbol of Islam's place in modern France.
The ban on street prayer is the latest attempt by the French government to remove Islam from the public square, amid rising frustration that the estimated 6.5 million Muslims in France are not integrating into French society
In April 2011, for example, France's much-debated "burqa ban" took effect. The new law prohibits the wearing of Islamic body-covering burqas and face-covering niqabs in all public spaces in France.
Also in April, Sarkozy's center-right Union for a Popular Movement (UMP) party held a controversial debate on the compatibility of Islam with the rules of the secular French Republic. The three-hour roundtable discussion, the title of which was altered to remove any reference to Islam, resulting in the anodyne "Secularism: To Live Better Together," was held at the upscale hotel Pullman Paris Montparnasse in the presence of some 500 religious leaders, legislators and journalists.
Organized by UMP leader Jean-François Copé, attendees discussed 26 ideas aimed at preserving France's secular character, enshrined in a 1905 law separating church and state. Participants discussed modern-day quandaries about issues such as halal food being served in schools and Muslim street prayers, as well as a proposal to enact a new law that would prohibit citizens from rejecting public service employees because of their sex or religion.
Other proposals discussed at the event include: banning the wearing of religious symbols such as Muslim headscarves or prominent Christian crosses by day care personnel; preventing Muslim mothers from wearing headscarves when accompanying children on school field trips; and preventing parents from withdrawing their children from mandatory subjects including physical education and biology.
In February, Sarkozy denounced multiculturalism as a failure and said Muslims must assimilate into the French culture if they want to be welcomed in France. In a live-broadcast interview with French Channel One television, Sarkozy said: "I do not want a society where communities coexist side by side … France will not welcome people who do not agree to melt into a single community. We have been too busy with the identity of those who arrived and not enough with the identity of the country that accepted them."

Comment on this item
Jihad Comes To Europe
by Guy Millière
Belgian security services have estimated that the number of European jihadists in Syria may be over 4000.
European leaders have directed their nastiest comments against the Jewish state, none of them has asked why Palestinian organizations in Gaza put their stockpiles of weapons in hospitals, homes, schools and mosques, or their command and control centers at the bottom of large apartment buildings or underneath hospitals. None of them has even said that Hamas is a terrorist organization despite its genocidal charter.
The majority of them are wedded to the idea of redistribution. Their policies are anti-growth, do not afford people any economic opportunity, and are what caused these economic crises in Europe in the first place. The United States seems to be following these thoroughly failed policies as well.
"Europe could not stay the same with a different population in it." — Christopher Caldwell, Reflections on the Revolution in Europe.
Raped and Slaughtered: Muslim Persecution of Christians, April, 2014
by Raymond Ibrahim
"I abducted your girls. I will sell them on the market, by Allah... There is a market for selling humans. Allah says I should sell." — Abubakar Shekau, leader of Boko Haram.
Hillary Clinton repeatedly refused to designate Boko Haram a terrorist organization.
In Malaysia -- regularly portrayed in the West as a moderate Muslim nation -- any attempt to promote religions other than Islam is illegal.
"The reason they want to kill me is very clear -- it is because of being a convert to Christianity." — Hassan Muwanguzi, Uganda.
A "Captive Mouthpiece" Demonizes Israel
by Dexter Van Zile
Rev. Hanna Massad does not mention that perhaps Hamas actually wants the blockade to end so it can bring in more weapons and cement to build attack-tunnels so it can "finish the job."
Hamas does not just admit to using human shields, it brags about using human shields. Why does Massad have to inject an air of uncertainty about Hamas's use of human shields when no such uncertainty exists?
The problem is that any self-respecting journalist would confront Massad with a follow-up question about Hamas's ideology and violence, but not the folks at Christianity Today.
Sorry to Remind You, but Golda Meir Was Right - Part IV of IV
by Burak Bekdil
In Turkey however, the protests were not peaceful. They included smashing a sculpture than was neither Jewish nor Israeli.
It was the usual "We-Muslims-can-kill each other-but-Jews-cannot" hysteria.
If Turkish crowds were protesting against Israel in a political dispute, why Koranic slogans? Why were they protesting in Arabic rather than their native language? Do Turks chant German slogans to protest nuclear energy?
Sorry to Remind You, but Golda Meir Was Right - Part III of IV
by Burak Bekdil
So in the EU-candidate Turkey, a pianist should be punished for his re-tweets, but a pop-singer should be congratulated for her first-class racist hate-speech. This is contagious.
No reporter present at Mr. Ihsanoglu's campaign launch speech thought about asking him if his commitment to the "Palestinian cause" included any affirmation of the Hamas Charter, in particular a section that says, "…The stones and trees will say, 'O Muslims, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.'"
Turkey is also the country where a few years earlier, a group of school teachers (yes, school teachers!) gathered in a demonstration to commemorate Hitler.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Today's Horoscope
Saturday, May 4, 2013
MOON ALERT We have the all clear to do business and make important decisions. The moon is in Pisces.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Hidden energies can help you. Something going on behind the scenes, perhaps a meeting of other people or a decision being made, might ultimately promote your earnings or make you more powerful in the eyes of someone. (Fascinating.)
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
A discussion with a female, probably in a group situation, might transform your views about something. Do not be rigid. Be open to new ways of looking at things because ultimately, this will benefit you. This discussion might relate to travel, publishing, religion or politics.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Certain details about your private life are public. They might relate to shared property, taxes or debt. They might also have something to do with something going on behind the scenes. In other words, that which is hidden could be revealed.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Exotic ideas, new places and people from different backgrounds will intrigue you. Make a point of doing something different and broadening your horizons. Explore ideas and learn something new. Whatever you learn might change an important relationship. "Luke, I am your father."
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
You will be able to skilfully use shared resources, shared property or shared wealth to benefit yourself and others. You might see a new way to divide something or make it helpful to others. Get the assistance of a boss or someone in authority to do this.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Relations with partners or close friends are interesting. Above all, be flexible and be prepared to go more than halfway. Tolerance is important. Listen carefully to what others say because your relationship might be transformed for the better -- but you have to hear what is said. (The obvious is not always easy.)
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Work closely with others because some kind of joint effort can improve your job or your health or something. In other words, you stand to benefit if you choose to benefit others and also to be open to their input. Also, someone might give you something.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
This is a playful, flirtatious day! Get out and do something just for fun. Enjoy sports, a movie, mini-vacation or playful times with kids. Romance will be energized! This is a great date night -- lots of pixie dust and allure.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Family discussions, especially with a female, will be significant. The point of it all might be to improve something at home or improve a relationship. Someone powerful will give their input, that's for sure. (Focus on bathrooms, plumbing and garbage or recycling areas.)
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You are a powerful communicator, which means this is an especially good day for those of you in sales, marketing, teaching, acting and also those of you who drive for a living. You're in a playful mood but you're also prepared to drive your point home.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Trust your money-making ideas. You might make money related to real estate or you might buy something for your home or a family member. You might also see a new way to earn money by working behind the scenes or working from home.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
This quite a powerful day for you and you can feel it. Not only are you eager to reach out and talk to others, you'll attract them to you as well. Someone might be powerful, but even so, you will not be cowed. You're going to speak your mind.
Actress/humanitarian Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993) shares your birthday. Without intending to, you make a strong impression on others. You are warm, caring and always professional. People sense that you are stable and reliable. (Even though you are a risk taker.) Your friendly exterior hides a steely resolve. You are dedicated to your cause. Good news. Your year ahead might be one of the most powerful years of your life. Dream big!

"Wendy Lesser's extraordinary alertness, intelligence, and curiosity have made her one of America's most significant cultural critics," writes Stephen Greenblatt. In "Why I Read," Lesser draws on a lifetime of pleasure reading and decades of editing one of the most distinguished literary magazines in the country, "The Threepenny Review," to describe her love of literature. As Lesser writes in her prologue, "Reading can result in boredom or transcendence, rage or enthusiasm, depression or hilarity, empathy or contempt, depending on who you are and what the book is and how your life is shaping up at the moment you encounter it."
Here the reader will discover a definition of literature that is as broad as it is broad-minded. In addition to novels and stories, Lesser explores plays, poems, and essays along with mysteries, science fiction, and memoirs. As she examines these works from such perspectives as "Character and Plot," "Novelty," "Grandeur and Intimacy," and "Authority," "Why I Read "sparks an overwhelming desire to put aside quotidian tasks in favor of reading. Lesser's passion for this pursuit resonates on every page, whether she is discussing the book as a physical object or a particular work's influence. "Reading literature is a way of reaching back to something bigger and older and different," she writes. "It can give you the feeling that you belong to the past as well as the present, and it can help you realize that your present will someday be someone else's past. This may be disheartening, but it can also be strangely consoling at times."
A book in the spirit of E. M. Forster's "Aspects of the Novel "and Elizabeth Hardwick's "A View of My Own," "Why I Read "is iconoclastic, conversational, and""full of insight. It will delight those who are already""avid readers as well as neophytes in search of sheer""literary fun.""

A little inspirations for you hot-hot-summer.
Some favourites from the title season, chosen on the basis of total or partial merit (i.e. colour, shape, cut, fabric). Mostly younger looks, a few slides transcend age. Many looks are wearable, in compliance with the nature of resort collections...
My picks for resort 2010. Living in a tropical climate makes everything easy-breezy.
Great timeless looks that can accompany you on your international journey across the globe.
My personal favorites from the Resort 2010 season.
Best resort 2010
All clothes I could die for
Only two dresses here but they do say "quality not quantity". I love the close fitting shape of these dresses and the metallics are beautiful.
