ADL Survey Shows Iran Least Anti-Semitic Middle East Country
by Marsha B. Cohen
The results of a new survey released by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), as deplorable as they are, show that Iran is the least anti-Semitic country in the Middle East.
Not that the ADL is doing anything to point this out in their just-released report entitled, Global 100: An Index of Anti-Semitism. This surprising fact can only be uncovered by comparing Iranian responses with those of other Middle Eastern countries.
According to the index scores of the more than 100 countries around the world included in the survey, the most anti-Semitic place on earth is the West Bank and Gaza (93%). Iraq isn't far behind the Palestinian territories, which are, of course, under Israeli occupation. But Iran doesn't even make it into the survey's worldwide top 20 anti-Semitic hotspots.
The first of the eleven statements to which respondents were asked to categorize as "probably true" or "probably false" was Jews are more loyal to Israel than to [this country/to the countries they live in]. While 56% of Iranians responded in the affirmative, in other MENA countries the percentage of respondents agreeing with this assertion were significantly higher: Saudi Arabia 71%; Lebanon 72%; Oman 76%; Egypt 78% Jordan 79%; Kuwait 80%; Qatar 80%; UAE 80%; Bahrain 81%; Yemen 81%; Iraq 83%; West Bank and Gaza 83%. (It's too bad that Israel was not among the countries surveyed. It would be interesting to know what Israelis believe on this point.)
The other indicators of anti-Semitic attitudes were:
Jews have too much power in the business world. Iran 54%; Saudi Arabia 69%; Oman 72%; Egypt 73%; UAE 74%; Lebanon 76%; Qatar 75%; Bahrain 78%; Jordan 79%; Kuwait 79%; Yemen 82%; Iraq 84%; West Bank and Gaza 91%.
Jews have too much power in international financial markets. Iran 62%; Oman 68%; Egypt 69%; Saudi Arabia 69%; UAE 71%; Qatar 71%; Jordan 76%; Bahrain 76%; Lebanon 76%; Kuwait 77%; Yemen 78%; Iraq 85%; West Bank and Gaza 89%.
Jews still talk too much about what happened to them in the Holocaust. Iran 18%; Yemen 16%; Saudi Arabia 22%; Egypt 23%; Kuwait 24%; Lebanon 26%; Jordan 29%; Iraq 33%; Oman 42%; UAE 45%; Bahrain 51%; Qatar 52%; West Bank and Gaza 64%.
Jews don't care what happens to anyone but their own kind. Iran 50%; Egypt 68%; Oman 70%; Lebanon 71%; Kuwait 73%; UAE 73%; Saudi Arabia 74%; Jordan 75%; Qatar 75%; Bahrain 75%; Iraq 76%; Yemen 80%; West Bank and Gaza 84%.
Jews have too much control over global affairs. Iran 49%; Oman 67%; Saudi Arabia 70%; Egypt 71%; Qatar 73%; UAE 73%; Bahrain 76%; Iraq 77%; Lebanon 77%; Jordan 78%; Kuwait 80%; Yemen 80%; West Bank and Gaza 88%.
Jews have too much control over the United States government: Iran 61%; Oman 67%; Saudi Arabia 70%; UAE 72%; Jordan 73%; Lebanon 73%; Qatar 73%; Egypt 74%; Bahrain 77%; Kuwait 78%; Yemen 79%; Iraq 85%; West Bank and Gaza 85%.
Jews think they are better than other people: Iran 52%; Lebanon 61%; Egypt 66%; Oman 66%; Qatar 67%; Bahrain 68%; UAE 68%; Saudi Arabia 69%; Kuwait 71%; West Bank and Gaza 72%; Jordan 73%; Yemen 76%; Iraq 80%.
Jews have too much control over the global media: Iran 55%; Bahrain 61%; Oman 65%; Egypt 69%; Saudi Arabia 69%; Qatar 70%; UAE 70%; Kuwait 72%; Lebanon 73%; Iraq 77%; Jordan 77%; Yemen 79%; West Bank and Gaza 88%.
Jews are responsible for most of the world's wars: Iran 58%; Qatar 64%; Lebanon 65%; Oman 65%; UAE 65%; Kuwait 66%; Saudi Arabia 66%; Egypt 66%; Jordan 67%; Bahrain 71%; West Bank and Gaza 78%; Yemen 84%; Iraq 85%.
People hate Jews because of the way Jews behave: Iran 64%; Lebanon 76%; Bahrain 77%; Kuwait 80%; Egypt 81%; Oman 81%; Iraq 81%: Saudi Arabia 81%; Qatar 82%; UAE 82%; Jordan 84%; West Bank and Gaza 87%; Yemen 90%.
Iran has a complicated relationship with its Jewish community, and has a long way to go before it can be considered a safe haven for Jews, even if some Persian Jews may disagree. Still, the ADL's data makes it clear that Iran is not only the least anti-Semitic country in its region, it also scores far better on every one of the ADL's eleven survey indicators by a statistically significant margin. That's something worth thinking about.

10 Responses to ADL Survey Shows Iran Least Anti-Semitic Middle East Country
Dear Marsha, Awsome work! As an Iranian, I am not surprised of the result. As you know, Iran is very multifaceted society and diverse ….For thousands of years we as Moslem, an Armanian, an Assyrian, an atheist, a Jewish, a Zoroastrian, and … lived and living side by side and formed Iranian culture, language, national identity. Iranian are peace loving peoples that have no hate against any ones or any peoples. It does not means that as a nation we have no problems or not critical of the Islamic Republic but our national security, solidarity is cardinal to our national unity. Thank you for your work and ADL. keep up with your future good work. Regards.
Iranian Jews have stayed and lived in Persia(Iran) from the time of
Cyrus the Grate and when Israeli government offered substantial cash
to encourage them to migrate to Israel, they refused. They have total
freedom, and engaged in economic sector of the country.
As a Palestinian, I find the survey plain dumb. The questions in the survey may indicate "antisemitism" but it discards the conditions which leads to such beliefs. When the Palestinian economy is depended on Israeli authorities which is overwhelmingly Jewish then of course they are going to think that Jews have way too much power because in there world a seventeen year old can determine whether or not a Palestinian can get medical treatment or deliver a baby in the hospital. The ADL survey is just a propaganda piece that is devoid of any critical analysis.
No, Iranians don't hate Jews at all. Even the clerics. If you tell them that you are Jewish they will do their best to show you that "they can distinguish between Judaism and Zionism", as they put it. They look at Israel as a "state" rather than a "Jewish state". And they perceive it to be an "oppressive" state and that is the root cause of their negative attitude toward Israel. It doesn't have anything to do with any religion.

It's hard to believe that the council majority is still holding the region's taxpayers hostage over the "responsible bidder" ordinance, which should be more aptly titled the "union payback" ordinance. This ordinance was simply contrived by Chris Seelbach to pay back his union supporters by requiring city contractors to participate in apprenticeship programs that only […]

What's Cooking This Weekend?
Weekend of September 22-23, 2012
Happy weekend, everyone! What are your cooking plans? Is the weather cooling off? Is it time for soup yet? We enjoyed Sandwich Week enormously (we hope you did too) and next week we'll be back to good fall cooking and stocking the freezer for the busy month ahead. Is that in your plans this weekend? Have something delicious planned? Happy weekend, and tell us: What's cooking in your kitchen?

I'm finishing up leftover veggie burgers with sriracha mayo tonight, defrosting some leftover sage biscuits tomorrow from the freezer for breakfast, and thinking about some red wine spaghetti with broccoli rabe or more spicy crab pasta for dinner tomorrow. I might make some of my favorite chocolate chip cookies on Sunday if I feel ambitious!!
I just got my wisdom teeth taken out, so I'm drinking fruit smoothies and eating lots of soup. I've got a pot of vegetable soup (carrot, celery, tomato, onion, and broccoli stem) cooking on the stove now. The softer, the better!
Wow, after seeing that chicken fajitas photo I might have to put that on the list for the weekend! Great way to use some of the end-of-season peppers from the farmer's market, plus use the grill. Also planning to make a crumble/crisp, or maybe clafouti, using market peaches. And roast up tomatoes to make a huge batch of sauce, some for a pizza this weekend, the rest to freeze.
At the other end of the spectrum, I've got several hunks of cheeses that need to be used up, and the cooler weather is starting to make me crave comfort foods like mac & cheese... : )
Oh, and I took some short ribs out of the freezer earlier with plans to braise this weekend. But now rethinking, given all my other ideas above...
A simple pizza (fresh tomato sauce, a bit of pancetta, and pecorino cheese, following a Jim Lahey recipe) and a big salad is going to be dinner tonight.
The plan right now (assuming the husband and I both recover from the cold we seem to have picked up) is to clear some space in our (tiny) freezer, and then fill it back up with a batch of chili and/or beef empanadas. Freezer-clearing will involve making a simple, comforting vegetable soup with the blocks of frozen tofu and homemade stock that are currently lurking there, flavoured with five-spice powder, ginger and garlic; I'll probably serve that on Sunday, when the temperature's supposed to drop into the low teens. I'm also thinking about doing either a quinoa porridge or whole grain crepes with apple compote for a tasty brunch.
I'm making -- again! -- the milkiest chocolate ice cream in the world from "Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Home," so I can bring it to my best friend's tomorrow night. MMMmmm.
Seattle is cooling down after a long stretch of sunshine, and tonight I was reminded of the upside of saying goodbye to summer as I ate my favorite kale salad with apples and gorgonzola. Soon I'll be warming up the house baking pizzas and simmering pots of soup, but in the meanwhile I'm going to squeeze in as many perfect tomato sandwiches as I can!
Just about make some chocolate and dried cherry biscotti and homemade focaccia with herbs de Provence!
I made a pot of kohlrabi soup (don't knock it til you've tried it--very creamy & delicate), celery root remoulade, and now I have a pork butt braising. Thank goodness for cool days!
It was my youngest daughter's birthday party this weekend, so I made a triceratops cake, and served nuggets and veggies. Everything had to be from a box so all the parents could verify ingredients for allergies, so it was not stressful and not perfect.
Sunday I hope to be able to bake apple pies with my visiting sister in law. I miss her so much most of the time and we can't wait to get into the kitchen together!
My partner made a pear clafoutis this morning, and I prepared caufliflower gratin and celeriac remoulade (both recipes from Jacques Pepin and Julia Child), and simmered chicken broth from last night's bird.
Spicy eggplant dip for lunch then eggplant curry for dinner. I'll feed the freezer some breaded eggplant rounds as well. Then cross my fingers that the garden tomatoes ripen before the frost!

F@#K Plastic Bags!
The most amazing thing happened to me at CVS today. As always, when I was checked out I told the women I did not want a bag and her response made me ecstatic!
"I do not have a plastic bag to give you" she said, as she pointed to the empty rack below her, where the single use bags once hung.
It's super exciting to see the ban on single use plastic bags in Los Angeles finally in effect! This will really reduce the amount of plastics that are going into Southern California waterways and the environment!
Q: I'm interested in becoming a vegan, but embarrassed to say that my diet has pretty much consisted of meat and dairy at least twice a day. I'm totally lost on what a balanced and yummy vegan diet should include. I want this to be part of a lifestyle change and not just something I say I'm gonna do, but never commit to. I don't want my daughter to have the same eating habits as I've had and I might as well start now, right? Where do I even start?! I definitely need guidance.
A: You're headed in the right direction! If you keep in mind veganism is a lifestyle change and that change usually happens slowly over time, you wont panic yourself or have any doubts. Slowly your body will detox from all the toxins in your system from the meat and dairy, and you will mentally and physically start to feel amazing! I just celebrated my 1 year anniversary being vegan and will never look back! It only took me 20 years of being a vegetarian to finally become a vegan, I am proof change can be slow, but it's worth it. If you want to read more about my personal path to plant based check out my blog post: http://theplurvegan.tumblr.com/post/74403092916/my-one-year-vegan-anniversary-evolution-to-vegan, Here are some tips on being vegan and transitioning your diet to be more plant based, in no particular order:
1. Eating a bag of vegan cookies is just as bad a regular cookies. Just because it's vegan doesn't mean its healthy…. Yes, Oreo's are vegan, just in case you were wondering. The Trader Joe's vegan cookies and rice crispy treats are amazing! A must try! Of course I had to start out my tips with cookies, vegan food is fun! Check out our vegan gingerbread house from this past December as all the candy is vegan! http://theplurvegan.tumblr.com/post/73462566115/vegan-gingerbread-house
2. Read Skinny Bitch by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin. Its quick read that covers everything you will need to know about a plant based lifestyle. I can't recommend this more! A couple holidays back, I give it to all my friends, family and coworkers (they have a guys version too) and it was received very well by meat eaters and non alike! You will learn something every time you read or reread it!
3. Buy Skinny Bitch book of Vegan Swaps. Great resource for all general alternative product options, but I think you will really like the meat alternatives and faux meat products section.
4. Read the label. You would be really surprised what they put in food. Personally, if its made on machinery that has touched eggs, dairy, and such I still consider it vegan. Trader Joes recently changed manufacturing locations and many of the boxes now say made on machinery that touched… but the ingredients are to me still vegan. I also consider white sugar and some honey vegan. Again its like the machinery, the process is not vegan but the product is. I only eat honey that I buy from bee hoteling or my local farmer's market bee keeper who treats the bees as a pet. Reading labels can be made easier with technology, especially thanks to smart phones. These days all you have to do is scan a barcode and the app will tell you if its vegan: Animal free, Is it Vegan, Cruelty Free, and there's also a Veg Kickstart app. Speaking of apps, check out happy cow too. great for local restaurants. Another great restaurant guide is: http://www.cok.net/wp-content/uploads/literature/VegLosAngelesFall2013.pdf
5. Bring snacks. You never know when you'll be hungry and need "fast" food. Hummus and carrots come in handy…. or those individual serving nut packets.
6. Make the easy swaps. Non dairy milk has like a zillion of options. If you don't like one keep trying (did you know at Trader Joes if you don't like a product they will refund your money within 7 days, so go ahead and try something new)… soy milk, almond milk, rice milk, coconut milk and so on. I know it not a really the healthiest option, but get the vanilla variety for dairy drinkers as it makes everything taste like sugared cereal and everyone loves dessert. Its always an option to start flavored and then switch to plain once you get ues to it. No one's judging, give yourself whatever you want! You're in transition, transitions are always hard, but in time it will all come to you! Swap your butter for earth balance. And know in a pinch margarine is actually vegan. Swap your cream cheese for tofutti cream cheese or Trader Joes vegan option. Daiya cheese also has some good cheese options. They have a yummy shredded cheese mozzarella too! Nut cheese are amazing!!! And last on to meat swaps. Get one of everything that looks good to you! Feel free to keep trying. Faux products have come a long way since the cheese that melts like plastic to the faux meats that turn white when you cook them. If you don't like something its okay. Just keep trying as they are a lot of options out there and more every day!
7. Lots of food you currently eat might already be vegan and you just don't know it. Also, packaging lies. If it says extra buttery popcorn, it probably doesn't actually have any butter in it…vegan! Check out this list: http://www.peta.org/living/food/accidentally-vegan/
8. Fight ignorance and negativity with education and tolerance. You are taking the high road with each and every vegan choice you make! You are not just thinking about yourself; you have compassion and respect for animals, the planet and for future generations. Personally, I believe too strongly in peace, equality, and non violence to not be a vegan. Once I open my eyes to the truth, I morally could not just be a vegetarian any more. However most people are totally unaware of what they eat and question veganism because they have no idea what it really is. Honestly for a long time I thought everyone would want to feed themselves healthy, clean foods that are packed with nutrients and make their minds and bodies strong. Unfortunately that isn't always the case, but I feel strongly that everyone should have a primarily plant based diet. I understand that a vegan lifestyle is not for everyone, but adding more and more plant based foods into your diet will only benefit you and the world around you in the long run. I have friends who eat lots of fast food and then ask me where I get my protein. This always baffles me as the person standing in front of you, who I'm sure hasn't had all their veggies for the day or any truly nutritious food, is questioning protein. Please know, its not all about protein, and there are plenty of plant based proteins out there. Here's a post if you want to know more: http://theplurvegan.tumblr.com/post/65388205982/q-a-sources-of-plant-based-proteins
9. Know your pal Google is always there. Most ingredients can be substituted with a vegan alternative and lots have more than one. Just ask Google your question and you will be so surprised at how quickly you can find all the info you need. Vegan recipes are plentiful and there is lots of vegan outreach/education material available. (not all pertinent, but check out these links: http://theplurvegan.tumblr.com/reference-links )
10. Check out these other resources:

Girlfriends in God - Feb. 9, 2007
February 9, 2007
Secrets of the Heart
Angela L. Craig
Today's Truth
Psalm 44:21: "He knows the secrets of your heart."
Friend to Friend
Throughout the Bible we are taught the truth that God knows the inner parts of our hearts better than anyone; even ourselves. He knows when we are honest and transparent and He knows when we hide behind a make-believe persona.
Think of your innermost parts as rooms in a house. What are you hiding in these rooms? Is there fear in the kitchen or shame in the bedroom? What about anger, revenge, self-doubt, fear, pride, abuse or addiction?
In this world, we are accepted by other people's perceptions of us. We are accepted when we are pretty enough, thin enough, talented enough, and rich enough. Being judged by the world's standards leaves us feeling inadequate and alone. Worldly judgment isolates us from authentic relationships with other people and the truth of God's word.
But God has a different perception of you and of me. We are His masterpiece, designed for a purpose! We were made to be loved by God and to share in authentic and loving relationships with Him and other people.
God wants the places of your heart to be filled with Him! He is waiting for you to reach for His hand, allowing Him to lead you through each secret place, proclaiming His Name and His power as ruler over the things you are hiding. He wants you to know that He is guarding and protecting you on this journey as He commands the darkness to leave and the light to return. He wants you to feel the freedom of a bird let loose from its cage.
He is waiting…
Waiting for you.
Reach for His hand, my friend. You can do it!
Let's Pray
Father, I need you. I proclaim in the Name of Jesus Christ that you are ruler of my heart. Lord, free me from those things I have tried to hide and open my eyes to areas where I still need to overcome. Give me wings of an eagle to fly and free me from isolation and feelings of inadequacies. For You are with me Lord; You will not forsake me or leave me. For this, I am so grateful.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Now it is Your Turn
1) What are the rooms of your heart filled with? Take some time to explore the good and the bad.
2) Find an old magazine you can cut up. Find one picture of where you feel you are right now and one picture of where you think God wants you to be. Journal your thoughts about these pictures.
3) Write an affirming Bible verse on the second picture (where you think God wants you to be) and tape it to your bathroom mirror.

Hailing from Finland, Husky Rescue is a deliciously arty collision of folk and electronica that is masterminded by Marko Nyberg. Country Falls, the nifty debut, was recorded by Nyberg with the help of 20 musicians and singers and finally saw stateside release in 2005. Songs such as "Sweet Little Kitten" and "New Light of Tomorrow" distinguish Husky Rescue as purveyors of a strangely brilliant take on alt-country. Slow tempos, atmospheric shadings and breathy singing (by Reeta-Leena Korhola) combine for a wonderfully organic effect: music for an acid rodeo. Reflective of the art and climate of his native country, Nyberg writes songs that conjure up images of frosty plains and contemplative, lonely nights. When the mood lightens up, as on the playful "Summertime Cowboy," Nyberg and his Finnish cohorts spin away from the Goldfrapp comparisons and into a singular world all their own.

Genzebe has company at the top!
The women's 1500 is officially the most insane event on the track this year!!!
Could be very interesting to see what the Ethipoians do over 800/1500 in the next few years. They've never taken these events too serious but a lot of Ethiopian speed demons popping up these days.
Women's 800 NR tonight too!
Aman bursting onto the scene..
Gebremedhin 3:31 this year is 2nd fastest Ethopian of all time in 1500m. Bekele I think is 4th?
|serious question to ponder
Question - will these super women be able to sustain such fast times for the next 2.5 months?
I'm just wondering if they will still have it in them when the Olympics roll around.
|twitter bird
"super" women...hmm...
|money cake
Well I made the prediction that she would do this. She Ia the smoothest 1500 runner and trains in sweeden.. ideal. Imagine what ethiopians can do with proper training
|i know im a dick, the original
if it were up to me that little dibaba would have it in her when the olympics roll around if you know what im sayin! damn she fine.
Uceny looked very fit. These Ethiopians are definetly on something. She wanna do likewise to keep up.
It looks like the w. 1500 is finally being dragged out of the doldrums that its been lying in the past few years. There's no reason for a sub-4 to be as hard as some of these women have been making it look recently. You'd be fooled for thinking its the equivilent of a sub 3:30 for men - it isn't.
It was always clear that once the Africans started taking the event seriously we'd start seeing the 3:55 barrier being approached again. It's about time as the 1500 has been lagging behind the 5000 for along, long time.
A great day for women's middle distance!
You mean once people started doping again we'd start seeing ~3:55s again.
I hate to break it to you - but this chick is dirty as sin.
|i know im a dick, the original
ooooooooh i hope dibaba is dirty and sinful.
|herp derp
-- 3:56.54 --
17th fastest women of all time
28th fastest performance of all-time.
fastest performance since 2006 - although Jamal ran 3:56.55 in 2009.

A competition for Royal Jet's new 7-star business airport in Abu Dhabi is attracting high profile interest from major players including WS Atkins, Pascall + Watson and Reid. Scope of the project includes terminal, hangers and offices. Reid's proposal (pictured) is conceived as, "An oasis of shade, calm and rest. A leaf shaped canopy covers the whole route from drop off to embarkation. It is supported on a row of columns that branch out like trees." A decision is expected late 2005.

The Fray
From WikiMusicGuide, the free music guide. Your music wiki.
The Fray formed their four-piece alternative rock band in Denver, Colorado in 2002. Current members are Isaac Slade on lead vocals and piano, Joe King on guitar and vocals, Dave Welsh on guitar, Ben Wysocki on drums and percussion, and Jimmy Stofer on bass, though they have no official bassist at the moment. Their music is reminiscent of other bands like Coldplay, Better Than Ezra, and Counting Crows. But they have their own distinctive sound and music that makes them who they are today.
Schoolmates Isaac Slade and Joe King met in a local music store and began two-jam sessions and writing songs to the style of bands such as U2 and Coldplay. The duo soon recruited Welsh, Wysocki and Slade's brother Caleb to be part of their band. But tensions flew between Slade's bother and the rest of the band, leaving Caleb Slade to be asked to leave. The incident was apparently the inspiration for their first hit single Over My Head (Cable Car).
The band chose their name after picking through a suggestion bowl that was placed at a graduation party for one of Slade's brothers. In spite of this, the band claims that the name is apt because of the frequent fights over the lyrics in their songs. Though, the band is in good terms with each other while composing music and acknowledges other contributions from all of its members.
In 2002, the band released Movement EP. Four songs collated that the band had written There is only a handful of this EP were released, and currently there is no available copy to be purchased. The following year, they released Reason EP and garnered critical acclaim and notoriety, particularly from Westword Alternative News Weekly'. Though they received rave reviews, the band was still struggling to find a radio station that would launch their EP. Finally, after eight songs were rejected, the band decided to release Cable Car on a KTCL radio show.
Soonafter, the station was flooded with calls requesting for the song. The song eventually became one of the stations top 30 most played songs of 2004, helping their popularity to grow locally. That same year, The Fray were voted Best New Band by Denver readers in Westwood. Word of mouth reached the execs of Epic Records and sparked interest of A&R man Mike Flynn. By the end of 2004, the band was officially signed for the company. The release of their debut album, How To Save A Life in September 2005 made them famous overnight. They decided to change the name of the carrier single Cable Car to Over My Head (Cable Car), and by the end of 2005, the single became KTCL's Most Played Song of the Year.
In July 2005, The Fray opened for Weezer for ten concerts. At the conclusion of the Weezer tour, the band opened for Ben Folds for twelve shows. The Fray headlined their own tour in January 2006, playing with Mat Kearney and Cary Brothers. To date, the band's singles Over My Head (Cable Car) has been certified Double Platinum and their new release How To Save A Life has gained Gold status all across America and making its way to be hits as well in other countries.

Last week, reports came out about the impending end to Sting's TNA contract. Well, now two more reports have come out, both hint towards a Sting move to WWE.
Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that Sting worked two live events last week. Sting rarely works these events and it is believed that he did this because he owed two appearances on his expiring contract.
Wrestling Observer Newsletter also reports that WWE officials have believed for months that this is the year that Sting will finally have a run in WWE, and talk recently has made it seem even more like it's going to happen.
This is extremely good news for all sides. Sting has never worked for WWE, thus he has never worked at WrestleMania. Sting's fantastic career has definitely earned him the right to have one match at the biggest spectacle in wrestling.
There are many possibilities for Sting in WWE, if he comes over. Sting could reasonably face anybody. He could face The Undertaker at WrestleMania, or put over a younger talent.
My guess is Sting would want to do everything he never did as a member of WCW and TNA. He would want to go to WrestleMania, Raw, pick up a few wins in his time here before losing a few big matches to younger talents. It's unlikely, but if his contract were up in time, Sting might want to enter this Sunday's Royal Rumble as a surprise entrant.
Sting is 54 years old, and he has slowed down considerably, but he still wants to be a wrestler. In recent years, he hasn't done many live events, but he does a good amount of TV and pay-per-views. With the WWE Network coming out, and Sting's long history with WCW, WWE would be getting plenty of bang for their buck in this deal.

Police in Southeast Texas have fatally shot an 80-year-old man who refused to drop his rifle after a woman reported being shot at by her landlord.
Beaumont police on Wednesday identified the man as Stanley Leger (LAY'-zhay), who was a taxidermist in Beaumont.
Sgt. Rob Flores Jr. said a woman called 911 on Tuesday night to say a man across the street fired at her as she was outside a residence. She wasn't hurt.
Police say Leger carried a rifle as officers arrived and refused to drop the weapon. Leger was shot after pointing the rifle at an officer, who was not injured.
Leger died at a Beaumont hospital.
The officer has been placed on administrative duty.
Flores had no information on whether the woman and Leger had a dispute.

Adobe has announced a new suite of mobile applications for content creators that will allow users to do graphical work on tablet devices like the iPad. Adobe is also launching a new Web service called Adobe Creative Cloud that can be used to sync and share content between devices.
The Adobe Touch suite consists of six tablet applications, including a photo editor, a collage toool, a Creative Suite file presenter, a vector drawing program, a social color palette manager, and software for designing wireframes. Although the flagship mobile photo editing application is called Adobe Photoshop Touch, it's not a fully-featured port of its namesake—it's a lightweight tool that offers a selection of "core" Photoshop features with a finger-friendly user interface.
Unlike the expensive Adobe Creative Suite, which is intended largely for a professional audience, the new tablet tools are designed to be more accessible to mainstream users. They are also priced accordingly: Adobe's website indicates that the Android version of Photoshop Touch will sell for $9.99 at launch.
The Android application is built for Honeycomb and is shown running on the Motorola Xoom in videos on Adobe's website. The software will also be available on Apple devices, though Adobe hasn't yet announced the price of the iOS version.
Five of the six applications in the Adobe Touch suite are new, but the vector art program—called Adobe Ideas—has already been out for over a year and is currently available for purchase from the iOS App Store. The other tablet applications are not yet available. Adobe plans to release the Android versions next month and will disclose a release schedule for the iOS versions early next year.
Alongside the new tablet applications, Adobe also announced the Creative Cloud, a hosted storage, synchronization, and sharing service for users of Adobe Touch applications or Adobe Creative Suite. The Creative Cloud will allow content creators to easily move their work between desktop computers and mobile devices. It will also have social features and integration with Adobe's digital publishing technologies.
Adobe also revealed today that it has acquired TypeKit, a company that hosts fonts in the cloud and serves them to users through the HTML5 @font-face feature and sIFR. The company's services will presumably become part of Adobe's Creative Cloud offering.
Adobe hasn't yet announced the pricing for Creative Cloud, but promised that more details will be available next month. The service will initially offer users 20GB of storage capacity in the cloud.

The former Governor of Maharashtra P.C. Alexander was buried at the cemetery attached to the Puthiyakavu St. Mary's Orthodox Cathedral here on Saturday with full State honours. A large number of people turned up at the cemetery to pay their last respects to Alexander who had a distinguished career spanning about six decades as a bureaucrat, member of the Rajya Sabha and Principal Secretary to Prime Ministers Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi.
He was buried in a vault, prepared nearly two years ago on his instructions. The funeral service was led by Catholicos Baselios Mar Thoma Paulose II of the Orthodox Church. Senior Bishop of the Church Geevarghese Mar Osthathios was among those who offered prayers for the departed.
Brief commemorative speeches recalled Mr. Alexander's contributions to the country and the Orthodox Church.
Maharashtra Minister for Public Health and Protocol Suresh Shetty, who placed a wreath on the body on behalf of the people of the State, recalled the involvement of the State's longest serving Governor in improving the lot of the poor, especially those in the backward regions of Marathwada and Vidarbha.
Speakers recalled that Alexander was being laid to rest on the day of the Nehru Trophy Boat Race in Alappuzha, an event he was directly responsible in establishing, in 1953.
Finance Minister K.M. Mani; Minister for Labour Shibu Baby John; Speaker G. Karthikeyan; Union Minister of State for Power K.C. Venugopal; UDF Chief Whip P.C. George; Mavelikara MLA R. Rajesh; chairman of the municipality K.R. Muraleedharan; and the former Minister of State for Railways O. Rajagopal; were among those who placed wreaths on the body of Mr. Alexander and offered condolences to the family members.
District Collector P. Venugopal placed wreaths on behalf of the Chief Minister, Kerala and Maharashtra Governors and Union Minister of State for Food and Civil Supplies K.V. Thomas.
The body of Mr. Alexander was brought to his hometown by road from Kochi at 10 a. m. Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee president Ramesh Chennithala and Kodikkunnil Suresh, MP, were among those who received the body at Harippad from where it was brought in a procession to his ancestral home at Puthiyakavu, where a large 'pandal' was erected at the spot where his ancestral home once stood.

Learning at Home {Elements of a Playroom}
With so many amazing playrooms and design for little ones floating around on Pinterest, it's hard not to feel inspired. Take these rooms for example: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (as you can see, I have a slight obsession with Teepees!). However, as much as I would love to create a little playroom for Eva, it's just not viable in our three bedroom townhouse. So instead, I've taken elements of various playrooms and created "spaces" within our living room as well as being "creative" about storage.
1. A Reading Teepee/Corner
Eva loves her teepee — she not only reads in it, but loves to play hide-and-go-seek as she closes each of the velcro straps before ripping it open again! I try to rotate her books often — keeping some of her favourites and adding new ones to explore. This has been was one of the best purchases we have made, in fact, since we're in the process of changing Eva's room we've decided to move it there.
2. Toy Kitchen
Eva's little Ikea mini-kitchen has been the perfect toy to promote imaginative play and practical life skills. Not only does she love to pretend to cook, eat food or sip tea, she loves to pretend wash her toy puppy dog in the sink too.
3. Puzzels
Taking advantage of the space under the television, is a collection of puzzles and small toys. These puzzles are fantastic for promoting critical thinking, patience and problem solving skills. Eva has complete access to these items and will often actively seek them out.
4. Music Box
I'm the first to admit that most of the time I keep this box hidden in the cupboard, but every time I bring it out, Eva loves to sit and explore every musical toy — shaking, banging, ringing. Whenever this occurs I have to remind myself of the benefits of playing music.
5. Art and crafts
Eva has a table and chair set, easel and craft cupboard in the kitchen. This cupboard it filled with various activities — play-doh, stamps, paints, stickers, various types of paper, puzzles, craft supplies, busy bags (boxes) and a number of early learning reference books.
6. Blocks and Toys
Blocks are excellent for promoting fine motor skills as well as spatial awareness, although I have to admit Eva doesn't use them very often and only when Johnny or I introduce them. On the other hand, Eva absolutely loves these plastic toys. They would have to be some of her most played with toys. She loves lining them up, laying them down to sleep and matching them with pictures in books.
7. Dress-ups
At the moment, Eva loves to pretend play — dressing up like a dinosaur or bunny rabbit. She will also make us dress up too and chase her around the house. Although we don't have the space for much more, I would love to expand our collection as she gets older and begins to enjoy imaginative play more.
Both of these last two boxes are kept in Eva's cupboard; however, like most toys, I try to rotate them as often as possible to keep Eva interested and engaged.
I hope this post goes to show that you don't have to have a designated room for play, but rather prove that you can integrate play within your home without it looking too much like a childcare centre!

How to Install a Self-Closing Deck Gate
Dress up your deck and add security with a gate.
Print OptionsClose
E-mail This Page to Your Friendsx
A link to %this page% was e-mailed
Materials and Tools:
six pressure-treated 2x2x8-inch boards
four pressure-treated 1x4x8-inch boards
two self-closing gate hinges
gate latch
polyurethane glue
clear wood sealer
air compressor with hoses
galvanized finish nails
measuring tape
pattern bit for router
pneumatic finish-nail gun
power miter box
1. Measure the opening. Be sure to allow for any obstructions such as handrails and post-caps.
2. Make a full-scale sketch of the gate on a piece of particleboard to act as a template.This will help you to visualize the gate and make the form later.
3. Using the power miter saw, cut all the straight pieces. Label them and set aside.
4. Using the template, cut a piece of particleboard to form the curve of the gate top. Make a total of three of these, using the first one as a template, cutting the others with a router with a pattern bit.The template should be a rectangle with the arch cut through it. Allow ¾-inch for the arch.
5. Cut 3/16-inch strips of the wood to form the arched top of the gate. If these aren't flexible enough, cut them thinner. The strips should be wider and longer than necessary — they'll be trimmed to fit later.
6. Apply a liberal coating of polyurethane glue to each side of all the strips. Stack the strips on top of each other.
7. Put the bottom of the form with the convex curve on the table, followed by the stack of strips, then the top of the form with the concave curve.
Clamp the two forms and tighten until the strips curve around the bottom of the form and bend into place. Clamp tightly and let sit at least eight hours.
8. After the glue has set, remove the form. Trim the sides to remove excess material and glue. Use a circular saw or a table saw to remove the excess. After the sides are trimmed, put the curve on the template and mark the ends. Cut to fit with a miter saw.
9. Assemble the gate with the polyurethane glue and the finish nailer, following the template.
10. Leave the gate flat until the glue sets.
11. Hang the gate with spring-loaded self-closing hinges. Once it's secure, install the latch.
12. Stain the gate if desired, and seal with a water-repelling sealer.

Welcome to our church - we invite you to look around and get a feel for our church. Feel free to share any comments or questions that might be on your mind through our online guest book. If you're not currently a member of our church - we'd like to take this opportunity to invite you to one of our weekly services. And of course, feel free to reach out and call one of our Pastors or Ministry Leaders. Feel free to stop by the church. Our regular hours of operation are Monday - Thursday from 9:00am - 3:00pm.
We hope you and your family will have a warm and spirit-filled experience with us as we worship and fellowship together at our services, events, and ministries.
We'd also like to invite you to make an online prayer request. You're prayer request opens the door, and God is waiting patiently on the other side of that door, at all times, in all situations, to join with you.
Many blessings to you,
Pastor Gail Bellamy
