Martin Kettle: The Full Story of the British Empire is Yet to be Told
Martin Kettle is an associate editor of the Guardian.
The first things the visitor sees are the treasure chests. Strong and functional yet ornately decorated, the ranks of chests against the wall are a silent reminder of an eloquent truth. The building of a global empire is principally about the commodity the original owners of these imposing boxes hoped to fill them with: money.
In Amsterdam, the city museum has just opened a fascinating new exhibition. They call it simply De Gouden Eeuw (The Golden Age). The age in question is the one that followed the 16th-century Dutch revolt against Spanish rule. The Netherlands became a world power within the space of not much more than a generation. It was also an age of Dutch enlightenment, the age of Rembrandt, Spinoza, Grotius and Huygens. In those years, Amsterdam was the capital of the world.
That era has long been called the Dutch golden age by historians. Yet an exhibition like this raises wider questions for all postcolonial European nations, including Britain. Can any age of empire, which this certainly was for the Netherlands, be described in something like an exhibition as a golden age? And, how should modern European nations like Britain and the Netherlands present their imperial past to the public? These are not just academic questions. Amsterdam's answer is full of lessons...

News Czech PM says higher level of sanctions against Russia unlikely at this stage
Czech Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka says the EU is unlikely to go beyond the framework of targeted sanctions against Russian officials in response to the country's aggression in Ukraine. Arriving at a two-day summit of EU leaders in Brussels on Thursday, Mr. Sobotka said he did not expect the alliance to reach agreement on a higher level of sanctions, be it economic sanctions or an arms embargo which some EU members have been pushing for. The Czech prime minister said he himself did not consider the time to be ripe for an arms embargo. The strength of the EU's response to developments in Ukraine have divided the alliance with some urging strong measures while others advocating a more prudent policy.

Elite units cooperate on car theft case
Elite police units from the regions of Karlovy Vary, Ústí, and Central Bohemia, as well as in neighboring Germany, succeeded after a several-month-long operation in uncovering a gang of car thieves who caused at least five million crowns in damages. Three men in their 40s have been arrested. Searches of the suspects' premises uncovered parts from at least 40 vehicles.
Cooler temperatures expected only shortly before Christmas
According to the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute and a long-term forecast released on Saturday,temperatures in the run-up to this year's Christmas holidays are expected to be milder than usual. In December, daily temperatures should on average around six degrees Celsius in the days before the holidays, only dropping to zero around Christmas Eve.
Police track down priceless 16th and 17th century statues
Czech police have revealed and returned to the original owners two priceless wooden statues dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. The statues, of two saints, Jan Nepomuk and Vojtěch, were stolen around 20 years ago, from a church and a historic monuments depository. The discovery was made in April in neighboring Austria.
Transport train cars derail near Ostrava
Two cars of a Polish transport trained derailed on track near Ostrava late Friday and were dragged 1.5 kilometres along the side of the route before the vehicle stopped, broken into three pieces. No one was hurt on the incident. Damage to the railways, including utility poles which were struck down, has been tabulated at 5.6 million crowns. Use of the route will be limited for the next few weeks as repairs are conducted.
PM against 14 percent wage increase for politicians
The Social Democrat leadership has come out against a proposed monthly wage increase for members of the legislature and the executive branch proposed by the budget committee of the lower house. If passed, MPs would see their monthly salary jump by more than 8000 crowns to 64 thousand. Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka wants to meet with party MPs to discuss the matter. He is reportedly in favour of an increase of 3.5 percent, the same as for state employees.
Washington Post slams President Zeman in editorial
The editorial board of the US daily the Washington Post published a
scathing editorial on Friday slamming leaders in the former eastern bloc,
specifically Czech President Miloš Zeman and Hungary's Prime Minister
Viktor Orban. The daily, reflecting on notable pro-Russian statements in
the face of EU sanctions and the crisis in Ukraine, described the Czech
president as a "virtual mouthpiece for Russian President Vladimir
Putin" and maintained as worrying that the current Czech government
had distanced itself from a human rights agenda laid out in the 1990's
by the former president Václav Havel. The late Mr Havel was honored in
Washington this week with a ceremonial bust unveiling. But his legacy has
been questioned by some Czech ministry officials as well as long criticised
by former president and rival Václav Klaus and associates.
In its piece, the Washington Post noted as positive that the behavior of both Mr Orban and Mr Zeman had led to protests in their respective countries. On November 17th, the Czech head-of-state was jeered by students during a plaque unveiling and his security detail had to open umbrellas to prevent the president from being pelted with eggs. Mr Zeman told the people in the crowd he was unafraid of them as he was unafraid to protest 25 years ago.
Median: two-thirds of Czechs say the president is dividing society
A new poll commissioned by Czech Radio, conducted by the Median agency, suggests that two-thirds of the population thinks the Czech president, Miloš Zeman, has divided society and the same number is unsatisfied with how the head-of-state has represented the Czech Republic abroad. The survey comes on the heels of an earlier poll which found that public trust in Mr Zeman had dropped by a record number over the course of a single month. Public dissatisfaction with Mr Zeman's handling of the office has increased in relation to a marked pro-Russian stance and pro-Russian interpretation of events in Ukraine, the use of vulgar language in a recent traditional radio interview where he attacked the activist band Pussy Riot, and a questionable approach to China on a recent official visit. The president's office has maintained that foreign policy steps taken by Mr Zeman were in line with the government's foreign policy plans but critics have suggested otherwise. The prime minister is to discuss the matter with the president in mid-December.
Opening of Prague's Blanka tunnel complex postponed until spring
The controversial Blanka tunnel complex in Prague will open in late March or early April, the Metrostav construction firm said on Friday. The tunnel, whose construction started in 2007, was originally to open in 2011 but has been hit by many delays, with the latest deadline set for December. The tunnel complex, which should channel through traffic from parts of Prague's historic centre, has come under criticism for massive costs overruns which reached 37 billion crowns.
Survey: Public trust in President Zeman falls sharply
Public trust in President Miloš Zeman has fallen sharply, according to a survey by the CVVM agency released on Friday. Some 37 percent of people who took part in the poll said they trusted the president, down from 58 percent recorded last month, a record one-month decline. Trust in the president has been greatly affected by a series of controversial moves by Mr Zeman, including his visit to China, his comments on the crisis in Ukraine and on Russia's role in the conflict, and an expletive-ridden radio interview, among others.
Missing men's remains found at ammo explosion site
The remains of two men missing since last month's explosion at an ammunition storage site in eastern Moravia have been found, the head of the police in Zlín, Jaromír Tkadleček, told a news conference on Friday. The men were employees of the firm that administered the storage facility destroyed by a massive explosion on October; the site was inaccessible for weeks due to continuing explosions of ammunition. The police boss also told reporters that the costs of clearing the area were likely to reach hundreds of millions of crowns.

GLAMOR Acceleration Might Work On Newer X.Org
Published on 12 March 2013 03:08 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
26 Comments
The widely-believed thought was X.Org Server 1.13 (or newer) wasn't working with the
GLAMOR acceleration library
run 2D over OpenGL
. GLAMOR is explicitly needed for AMD Radeon HD 7000 series acceleration support while it's an optional feature to the Intel driver. It turns out, however, that GLAMOR might already work with the latest X.Org Server.
AMD's Michel Dänzer wrote on
the xorg-devel list
an interesting message on Monday: "This is rather interesting news: So far the assumption has been that glamor cannot work at all with current xserver. However, I cannot reproduce the problem I reported a while ago even with xserver 1.13.0, let alone newer versions, though I still can with the pre-1.13 Git snapshot I reported the problem for. Apparently the problem was fixed before the final 1.13.0 release. Was I really the only one who ever tried this, and everyone else just took my word for it? :\"
So surprisingly, GLAMOR apparently works on the current X.Org Server but it wasn't realized for months... Many months. X.Org Server 1.13.0 was
released last September
. But sadly, the GLAMOR acceleration library isn't vigorously developed nor used, so it's surprising compatibility went unnoticed.
With GLAMOR now working atop X.Org Server 1.13 (and hopefully X.Org Server 1.14), plus work continuing to go into Mesa/Gallium3D for
AMD HD 7000 series open-source driver benchmarks
will hopefully be here soon on Phoronix.
For information on how to setup the AMD RadeonSI open-source driver, see

Workers already busy collecting Toys for Tots
Written by Michael Feely Wednesday, November 26, 2014 12:57 pm
BRIGANTINE–The Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program, in partnership with Brigantine's True Spirit Coalition, is collecting toys for families that have been hit hard by Sandy, the economy and the recent impact of four (and maybe five) casinos closing.
Requests for assistance are increasing, and the program needs additional support, according to organizers.
Last year the Marine Corps Reserve's Toys for Tots program distributed more than 42,000 toys to more than 8,000 children in Atlantic County.
"This year, with our present depressed economy, the need is greater," Ron Powell said.
FEMA clarifies 'substantial damage' with regard to ICC benefit

BRIGANTINE- Alex Hersonski, an attorney with South Jersey Legal Services in Atlantic City, attempted this week to clarify details of a Federal Emergency Management Agency bulletin dealing with whether a Hurricane Sandy claim meets the "substantial damage" requirement for homeowners filing for Increased Cost of Compliance benefits.
"There is a recent FEMA bulletin (W-14056) that permits Sandy homeowners to use a town's estimate of the home's market value and then submit that to the … insurer in order to determine if the property meets the substantial damage requirement," Hersonski said.

Police recommend Nixle for weather updates
BRIGANTINE- An early winter is devastating parts of the country as extreme weather and early snow has covered parts of western New York up to 7 feet. This heavy snowfall, coupled with a warming trend, could produce unprecedented flooding for that region.
Brigantine is missing the impact of that storm, but the city has been preparing for the possibility of a weather incident. The city manager has been meeting weekly with the Office of Emergency Management department heads to put an action plan together.
A major snowfall is part of that plan, as residents need to get to jobs and children to school. Public Works is preparing for the possibility of snow.

Free cubs tickets every once in a while (since they have the same owners). Their services are easy to sell as it is easy becoming more popular to place employment advertising online as opposed to the newspaper.
The job is very, very boring. You sit in a cubicle all day and talk to people on the phone all day. The only relief comes when you have a client base after a few months and you can spend a little more time posting their advertisements on the website. Other than that, the job is pure monotany.
Don't make the meetings so boring.

Great people to work with and great experience selling to C level executives. The salary was just above average but definitely not bad. Work with quite a few people in the same age bracket but definitely not in experience levels.Cons
Commission structure was horrible...if you sold an account and then 3-4 months later that account couldn't pay their bills anymore it not only set your commissions back but you then had to make up for that account times 2 in order to stay on plan for the year.
Management doesn't look at the big picture when it comes time to advancement opportunities...it's strictly a numbers game with them.Advice to ManagementAdvice

Flexible everything. Hours, pay, benefits, work from home, vacations, dress code. Everything. The people here are great and everyone gets along really well. I hope to work here for a long time. Its really fun to work for a company that has super bowl advertisements, and even better to work for one that is at the top of its industry.Cons
The flexibility leads to a lack of accountability late in the day and early in the morning. The economy stinks right now so this industry is getting killed due to the lack of jobs available for people to apply for on the site.Advice to ManagementAdvice

A weekend for entrepreneurs and creative individuals to launch their bright ideas has resulted in the creation of PhenomScout.
Winnipeg's Ramp Up Weekend wrapped up on Sunday, and PhenomScout was one of the successful ideas brought to fruition. The website is a comprehensive database of high school athletes that simplifies the university sport recruiting process.
"As a former college athlete, I know firsthand how hard it is to connect with recruiters and scouts, especially being from a smaller province with a smaller pool of players" said Patricia Romeo, who is leading the PhenomScout team. "I'm thrilled to be part of this game changing platform that will make it easier for recruiters to find athletes."
Prime Minister Stephen Harper has put the wheels in motion to begin the process of selecting a new Lieutenant Governor for Manitoba.
A five-member advisory committee on vice-regal appointments has been put in place to begin the search for appropriate candidates to fill the position.
Philip Lee is Manitoba's current Lieutenant Governor, having assumed the role since being sworn-in on August 4, 2009. Lee, 70, was preceded by John Harvard.
The advisory committee will consult with a wide range of stakeholders on prospective candidates and provide advice to Harper on the progress of committee deliberations. The committee will then present a reporter to the Prime Minister with a shortlist of proposed candidates for consideration.

WINNIPEG — The Winnipeg-born and raised duo of Alexander Steen and Ryan Reaves — both sons of Winnipeg sports legends in hockey and football, respectively — were in on all three St. Louis Blues goals as the Winnipeg Jets dropped another home date, 3-2 on Sunday afternoon.
Reaves, the son of 1980s-era Blue Bombers running back Willard Reaves, notched the game-winning goal early in the third period, while Steen, son of 1980s and 90s-era Winnipeg Jets forward Thomas Steen recorded primary assists on the Blues' two goals with the man-advantage.

According to Health Canada figures, in 2012, just over 2,000 Canadians received new organs through organ donation. Those transplants covered a fraction of the 4,500 Canadians currently on the waiting list. Sadly, in 2012, 256 Canadians died before they received a transplant.
Last month, after living with ongoing kidney failure for close to a decade, Neepawa-area resident Darryl Kulbacki received a new kidney. Kulbacki's new kidney came from his sister Karla Hall. Had a donor not stepped forward, Kulbacki would have had to wait about five years for a new kidney. With kidney disease on the rise, 72 per cent of Canadians waiting for a new organ are waiting for a kidney.
Winnipeg police have tracked down an alleged jewel thief after his third reported robbery.
Police say the man stole cash and items from several businesses on three separate occasions beginning last month.
On October 31, the suspect allegedly made off with an undisclosed amount of cash from a hotel in the 700 block of Main Street. Police say he waited for hotel staff to leave the cash register unattended and then reached over the counter.
An 18-year-old man is in police custody after allegedly stabbing a 22-year-old man at a drinking party early Saturday.
The two men had been at the party in the 400 block of Maryland Street when they became involved in a dispute. Police say the 18-year-old took out a knife and stabbed the other man multiple times.
The victim was taken to hospital in unstable condition, but later upgraded to stable.

Cuban calls NBA players in Olympics "epitome of stupidity"
Jan 24, 2012, 5:27 PM EST
In the ongoing "club vs. country" debate that rages through soccer, basketball and other sports, Mark Cuban has long been clearly on the side of the clubs. Which makes sense because he owns one. He pays a lot of money, hypothetically, to a tall German forward who went and played for his national team this summer and now is sitting out at least four games to get his knee and the rest of him right.
With the Olympics coming up in London this summer, you can bet you're going to hear a lot more of this from Mark Cuban and others over the coming months. Here is his latest rant on the subject, told to ESPNDallas.com.
"It's just the epitome of stupidity that we would allow ourselves to be used so other corporations" — as Cuban calls the Olympics — "can make tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars," Cuban said. "There's some guys sitting at the Olympic headquarters going, 'Those dumb-asses, we're taking all their best guys for nothing.' "
Cuban knows he's unlikely to bring change to the system, but he said he will continue "fighting so that we'll pull out."
We can pick apart the problems with Cuban's argument — starting with that he does not own these employees and if they wish to use their off-season to play for their country for pride and to promote their brand (to pump up their personal corporations) they should be free to do so — but it's all kind of moot. Because David Stern isn't buying it. Stern knows he has to grown the game and the NBA brand globally and the Olympics are a major stage to do that. Stern gets the big picture.
"The commissioner's office won't open it up to discussion. They just make a unilateral call," Cuban said Monday. "They'll take calls about it, but won't put it up for a vote. Hopefully, I can get him to move it to a vote at some point."
Cuban won't have to worry about Dirk Nowitzki playing in the Olympics in London — Germany did not qualify.
Of course, if his master plan of finding a way to land Deron Williams and Dwight Howard as free agents pans out, he will be sweating out the Olympics like the most patriotic of American hoop fans. Just for a different reason.
- charlutes - Jan 24, 2012 at 5:32 PM
He makes a compelling argument. That said, selfishly I'd rather watch NBA ballets in the Olympics. Gotta love Cubes though.
- goforthanddie - Jan 24, 2012 at 5:40 PM
I cared (more) when it was amateurs-only.
- bozosforall - Jan 24, 2012 at 7:28 PM
Amateurs? When? The Russians always used pros. So did the East Germans. And Cubans. And Chinese…the list goes on and on.
- Justin - Jan 24, 2012 at 5:45 PM
"It's just the epitome of stupidity that we would allow ourselves to be used so other corporations" — as Cuban calls the Olympics — "can make tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars," Cuban said. "There's some guys sitting at the Olympic headquarters going, 'Those dumb-asses, we're taking all their best guys for nothing.' "
Replace "Olympics" with "NCAA" and you have an even more legitimate argument.
- willardj - Jan 24, 2012 at 5:56 PM
I don't think Cuban understands the point of the Olympics.
It's about representing your country and playing the sport for the love, not for the money. The reason players join is because they want to represent the U.S. and they love basketball.
If they got paid to play, then that would ruin it. In fact that's the reason why the Olympic committee took so long to allow professionals to play.
- goforthanddie - Jan 24, 2012 at 6:20 PM
I think he understands it better than you. The Olympics were originally amateur-only and worked just fine that way. Why add pros? Money, dear boy.
If the players REALLY cared about repping America, why do so many refuse to play the qualifying tournaments? That's representing America too, and in a pretty crappy light. Lose those tournaments, there's no guarantee we even make the Olympics. But that doesn't matter. Too many just want the personal glory with as little effort as possible. You know, just like in the NBA.
- willardj - Jan 24, 2012 at 6:54 PM
They added pros because the pros are better than amateurs. You want the best people representing your country. The best athletes competing will always generate more money so those two things go hand in hand.
Many don't participate in the qualifying tournaments because they have an extremely tight schedule. It's very difficult to play a season of NBA basketball after participating in the Olympics in the off-season. Manu Ginobili has aged so quickly because of all of the Euro league tournaments he's participated during the offseasons. And it's pretty much guaranteed that the US will qualify anyway.
Do you honestly think that the players are upset that they're not being paid for playing in the Olympics?
- bozosforall - Jan 24, 2012 at 7:28 PM
Amateurs? When? The Russians always used pros. So did the East Germans. And Cubans. And Chinese…the list goes on and on.

All these people saying that the players dont receive money are blind. They might not get a check from the US, but they make tons of cash for appearances and endorsements. So yes they get paid and get paid well.

Cuban – you're a communist
- muhangis - Jan 25, 2012 at 8:44 AM
Amazing how many miss the point. To these players its about the pride of representing your country, going against the very best in the world, teaming with the very best in the world, and the chance to win a gold medal. They love it and so do the fans. What's so hard to get about that? And strangely hypocritical that Cuban talks about corporate greed. Cuban is ignorant, always is and always was.

Is Amazon.com an online bully?
Online retail
Send this to a friend
- Business Journal staff
The New York Times is weighing in on the question of whether Amazon.com is an online bully.
In a Business Day report published Sunday, the Times quoted e-shoppers who seem to think so, and who are patronizing smaller, local online retailers that are finding it difficult to compete with the Seattle online retailing giant.
The Times reported that Amazon's reputation as a bully was solidified by its price-check app plan, which asked customers to scan prices at local stores and report their findings back to Amazon. A few customers told the Times that they're supporting local online sellers in response to Amazon's bullying tactics.
Featuring Harold Pollack, a Chicago professor who used to spend $1,000 a year on Amazon but switched to smaller online sellers last fall, the story highlighted efforts by small retailers wishing to capitalize on their underdog status:
The little sites are fighting back with some tactics of their own, like preventing price comparisons or offering freebies that an anonymous large site can't. And in a new twist, they are also exploiting the sympathies of shoppers like Dr. Pollack by encouraging customers to think of them as the digital version of a mom-and-pop shop facing off against Walmart: If you can't shop close to home, at least shop small.
TechFlash previously reported on retailers' anger over Amazon's Price Check app, which allows consumers to scan an item's bar code at a physical retailer and compare the price to Amazon's prices. The move that outraged brick-and-mortar merchants was Amazon's holiday-season offer to give customers $5 off a purchase just for using the new Price Check app.

Economic leadership vs. popular leadership
US President Obama with PM Netanyahu at White House 370.
(photo credit:REUTERS/Ibraheem Abu Mustafa)
It was Barack Obama's clear social-demographic advantage – the support of a
"minority" (Hispanics, African Americans and women) turned a "majority" – that
brought on his reelection.Binyamin Netanyahu, too, is likely to earn
reelection by virtue of the social demographics of the "rightist bloc" that
supports him.Obama will be remembered in his first term as a "popular"
leader – a politician who championed compromise, espoused cooperation, and
sought the kind of commonality that usually rests on the lowest shared basis.
Obama made no meaningful breakthrough in his first term in office; he played the
role of conciliator and mediator. Even in these functions, he posted no
glittering success abroad or in "domestic" issues vis-à-vis the Republican
majority in Congress.Popular leadership and economic leadership
inherently conflict. The former rests on short-term calculus and immediate
gratification of the public's wishes; the latter hinges on long-term vision and
the choice of lengthy demarches at the expense of popularity and fast-and-easy
public gratification.A true and stable economic agenda is based on
long-term thinking and processes that take time to pay off. The electorate
cannot always see or understand the long-term utility of a given economic
policy. The problem in an economic debate is that it hits everyone's pocket,
meaning that every citizen has an opinion about it, but it comprises a set of
complex parameters and entails economic knowledge that rank-and-file citizens
rarely have.As a case in point, consider the issue of reforming and
competitivizing Israel's ports. Such a reform requires the restructuring of port
workers' remuneration so that they will generate more output by working longer
hours more efficiently. In the short run, it's an unpopular cause to tackle
because it involves layoffs, wage cuts and heightening of
expectations.Farther out, however, streamlining the ports will lower
unloading costs, reduce import prices and cut export costs to make Israeli goods
more competitive in international markets. This is a long-term process that
entails a short-term "price"; as such, it will not earn its engineer any
popularity despite its necessity.There you have it: the electorate is
unlikely to award "extra credit" for a complex economic agenda.If so,
what image should a head of state seek – the Homo Economicus or the popular?A
LEADER who knows that his/her term in office is in the public's hands must weigh
the merits of a popular strategy – showering voters with pleasing promises –
against those of a responsible one. The dilemma takes an especially trenchant
turn at election time. To curry favor, candidates for leadership have to appeal
to the lowest common denominator. Conversely, leaders who wish to offer an
economic vision and spearhead genuine, meaningful economic reforms may have to
wipe the "nice guy" smile off their faces.It takes a broad range of
skills and capabilities to be head of state. Generally, such a person focuses on
three main areas of activity that may not necessarily be related:1. Vision and
national leadership – leading the public at large, offering the public and the
state a vision, mobilizing the citizenry behind confidence in their leadership,
and playing the role of "national patriarch."2. Political leadership –
guiding a party through the political maze, taking political initiatives, and
"cooking deals" in the corridors with politicians at various levels.3.
National CEO – managing and carrying out the state's affairs and keeping all
those campaign promises.Few are the leaders who can display strong
prowess in all these arenas concurrently.DURING HIS first term, Barack
Obama proved his strength as a visionary. However, he displayed weakness as a
political leader by failing to pass through Congress the gamut of programs he
had promised his voters. He also showed weakness as a national CEO whose task it
is to implement his programs.Obama's political history thus far has no
chapter in which he surmounts the obstacles by really "getting something done"
and managing an organization at the macro level.Like Obama, Netanyahu is
known as a public leader and a visionary. Moreover, Netanyahu is gifted with
political leadership strengths that allow him to attain his political objectives
time after time.As finance minister, unlike Obama, Netanyahu proved
himself to be a "doer" and economic leader who made tough decisions and carried
out economic moves even if they entailed cutting living flesh to the
bone.Before being elected to his first term, Barack Obama persuaded the
public that "Yes we can" – that he had a vision.Once in office, however,
he failed to elevate his vision to the practical plane.The necessity now
is to focus on defining and implementing the contents of the vision: "What is it
that we 'can'?" Obama needs to realize that if meaningful economic reforms are
to go ahead, his neutral, popular positions have to go. The two might coexist at
a time of economic strength and efflorescence.However, given the state
of the global and, particularly, the American economy, Obama should stop being
the nice guy. He should take an example from Netanyahu and become an economic
leader.In his most recent term as prime minister, Netanyahu reinforced
his stature as a popular leader. In the next term, however – which is also
shaping up as Netanyahu's – the balance for the Israeli economy needs to tilt
toward "economic leadership." To bring this about, Mr. Netanyahu should recruit
executives graced with leadership, professionals who will forego "popularity"
and be men and women of vision and action – people who, acting on his and
Israel's behalf, will take unpleasant but essential measures for the Israeli
economy today.Dr. Hana-Muriel Setteboun is vice president of Business
Development and Finance at FK group, Israel.

'Resurrection': Not your usual zombies
A review of the new ABC drama, "Resurrection," premiering Sunday, March 9, 2014, and developed from a book by Jason Mott, "The Returned."
Philadelphia Daily News
On TV
9 p.m. Sundays on ABC.
They're baa-aack. Again.
Science, religion and just plain logic all take a bit of a beating in ABC's new drama "Resurrection," but if you prefer your zombies more esthetically pleasing than those on "The Walking Dead," this story about how a small town reacts when some of its long dead residents start returning might be for you.
Developed from a book by Jason Mott, "The Returned" (which, confusingly enough, has no relation to Sundance's French zombie series of that name), "Resurrection" begins with the discovery of an 8-year-old American boy (Landon Gimenez) in rural China.
When he's returned by an immigration agent (Omar Epps) to his hometown of Arcadia, Mo., he finds the people he identifies as his parents (Kurtwood Smith and Frances Fisher) have aged more than 30 years, or just about the length of time their son Jacob has been dead.
The first two episodes depart considerably from Motts' book, which I'm inclined to think is a good thing. I'm just not sure where "Resurrection" will be going instead.
Is it a dream? Or a nightmare?
If not for Epps — and Fisher and Smith, who are terrific as two people trying to come to terms with the impossible — I might have preferred this one had stayed buried.
As it is, I'll probably be watching with one eye on the exit.

and his nails like birds' claws.
DAN 4:34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine
eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed
the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever,
whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from
generation to generation:
DAN 4:35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing:
and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the
inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him,
What doest thou?
DAN 4:36 At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory
