Here's a couple of interesting films you might want to watch.
1. Roar Like Lions. While millions of people worldwide joined the Occupy movement, this movie show just how powerful the media was at destroying it...
2. Psywar. I had no idea that a U.S. based PR firm hired actors to cheer when they pulled down Saddam's statue, plus all other kinds of psyops the government runs on the people...

Despite the prevention plans and education programs coming into place, the vermin siege on New York City continues, hitting 1 Time Warner Center, at Columbus Circle, where Time Warner's offices are located, and also the Brooklyn District Attorney's office this weekend. Reps for Time Warner and the Brooklyn D.A. confirmed that bedbug issues have been uncovered, but claim it hasn't affected productivity. Meanwhile, it's as if the bedbugs know that attacking high-profile places will really make a statement! [WSJ, Gothamist]

For the past 8 months, I've been using different versions of MVNOs. MVNOs are mobile virtual network operators, they run on top of traditional wireless carriers, providing access for a fraction of the typical mobile network costs. MVNOs come in many different varieties, from Wal-Mart's Straight Talk to T-Mobile's Solavei. My experiments with these have led me to the following conclusions;
- traditional mobile network services are overblown and a waste of money
- CDMA networks (Sprint/Verizon) are a waste of money
- the booming second-hand smartphone market combined with the way Google is selling Android smartphones provides freedom from traditional contract schemes
- MVNO's are smarter than regular operators, they provide incentives and flexibility
- there is a difference in service between AT&T/Verizon, Sprint/T-Mobile and then MVNOs (and you pay for it)
- a dedication to MVNOs requires some hard work, it requires some technological know how but it's not impossible
So why might this year be the year of the MVNO?
Assertion 1: traditional mobile network services are overblown and a waste of money - Traditional mobile networks in the US require a commitment of $80-100 a month, to start. You pay for data, minutes and text messages, often a fee for each service. Carriers do not give you a break for underusing, but will charge you an arm and a leg for any overages. While T-Mobile and Sprint will offer you "unlimited" for around $80, their service is somewhat lacking, AT&T and Verizon no longer have any unlimited plans, and charge a ton for data, and a criminal amount for SMS.
Assertion 2: CDMA networks (Sprint/Verizon) are a waste of money - These networks use proprietary coding, so that the smartphones can only be used on their networks. If you only have CDMA (not 4G LTE) your data speeds are incredibly poor, and battery life suffers due to technological limitations. This vendor lock in has forced people to stick to bad contracts, and bad service. Global networks are possible on CDMA smartphones, but you cannot just jump from provider to provider, or get services anywhere you choose. Yes, Verizon does offer 4G LTE, but I only believe you need those services for Streaming and Tethering, and not much else.
Assertion 3: the booming second-hand smartphone market combined with the way Google is selling Android smartphones provides freedom from traditional contract schemes - You can find a used Galaxy Nexus GSM for around $200, a used Samsung Galaxy S3 for $300 and an iPhone 4S for the same price. Google is selling the best smartphone for $299/349 right now (when they are available). It is no longer a requirement to get contract reduced prices to get a good phone, but if you are willing to tinker, you will get the latest and greatest capabilities. Purchasing a subsidized/contract type phone just is not worth it anymore, the benefits do not out weigh the cost of being on a contract.
Assertion 4: MVNO's are smarter than regular operators, they provide incentives and flexibility - Most MVNOs have a variety of ways in which the operate. One, gives you credits for adding other users, another, lets you add things such as tethering. They can be used for only a few days a month, or in one lump fee for the year (with a savings tacked on). T-Mobile even allows you to take out insurance on your smartphone, on a pay as you go basis. By making you a part of the marketing and sales team, you can save yourself money (or make it!).
Assertion 5: there is a difference in service between AT&T/Verizon, Sprint/T-Mobile and then MVNOs (and you pay for it) - You won't have a store you can go into to get your phones to work, it's unlikely you'll have insurance, and there isn't always quality customer service available. Most MVNOs offer zero roaming, because they only are attached to a single carrier. If you're a rural user, this can ruin your experience. Similarly, if you have to have service all over, you are best off with AT&T/Verizon, if you need to save the money, Sprint/T-Mobile are decent, but if you are adventurous MVNOs can work, and work well. When you go the MVNO route, you take customer service into your own hands, with Google/Titter and more, you need it.
Assertion 6: a dedication to MVNOs requires some hard work, it requires some technological know how but it's not impossible - Pretty much any device can be activated on MVNOs, but only if you work at it. I had to put a fake IMEI into one service just to get a simcard. Sometimes you're searching the internet for proper APNs, or just taking hours to get things going. It happens, but I've found it to be relatively worth it. I have used a variety of them (all on GSM variants) and think each one has its own merits.
So is it?
I think so, everyone has heard about Cricket or Boost Mobile, but there are variants for every carrier and (pretty much) every device. MVNOs offer the ability to make your own decisions about your smartphone carrier, and with the device you use most often, you should have flexibility.
How am I doing it?
Right now I'm on Solavei, you can find more details about it via this link, or you can just straight enroll via this one. Solavei is an MVNO that runs on T-Mobile, and gets true HSPA+ speeds (which do not quite rival 4GLTE, but are more than enough). The service is the same as T-Mobile, just without roaming. Is it the perfect solution, no, but it does allow me to cut in half a monthly bill that just was not cutting it.
If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments, or find me on Twitter, right here.

Grovetown, Ga. --- Neighbors said they thought a yard sale would be the most unlikely place for something like this to happen. Four houses on Fall Creek Lane in Grovetown had yard sales Saturday. Neighbors said sometime between 8:00 A.M. and 12 noon, someone passed counterfeit money.
Donna Myers said there were several people that came to her house and would buy one and two dollar items and pay with a twenty dollar bill. Myers said she was constantly running in the house to get more change. She said later on, they were looking at the money and it was obvious that the money was thicker and even had the same serial numbers. That's when the neighbors discovered the bills were counterfeit. Neighbors said there were a lot of people coming and going throughout the day, but don't remember seeing anything suspicious.
"Because I happened to get the most. Lost the most of the neighbors. And it's just really a sad thing. It is just really a sad thing that people would do that," Donna Myers said.
"We're just trying to do a good thing. Get rid of some things. Everybody was having a good time and to find out that people are actually doing this kind of thing at a yard sale is just unbelievable," Maria Harvey said.
About $130 was stolen from all four yard sales. Both neighbors said people need to be on the lookout, and said the next time they have a yard sale, they'll use a detector pen to check the 10's, 20's, and 50 dollar bills to make sure they're real.
If you have any information on the counterfeiters, you are asked to call the Columbia County Sheriff's Office.

Oak Alley Plantation
Vacherie, Louisiana
If these 300-year-old oak trees could talk, what tales would they tell? Stroll the grounds of this old antebellum mansion from 1839 -- when sugarcane reigned supreme upon the back-breaking toil of slaves -- and you may just chance something spooky. It's been known to happen: an invisible touch of the arm, a ghostly man in gray, the billowing dust and sound of a horse-drawn carriage … that never materializes. Scared yet?

Book Description:
Tennessee Legal Research is a practical and comprehensive book devoted to the resources and strategies needed to research Tennessee state law. Taking a process-oriented approach, the book explains research in Tennessee cases, statutes, legislative history, constitutional law, and administrative law. Additional chapters describe the research process, secondary sources and practical guides, and online research. An appendix provides a quick reference guide to finding Tennessee law in print, on the Internet, and on LexisNexis and Westlaw.Tennessee Legal Research was designed specifically for teaching legal research to first-year law students. Others who will find it helpful include practitioners, paralegals, librarians, college students, and even laypeople. It is clearly written, making even complex ideas accessible.Outlines of the research process and short excerpts from Tennessee resources make the book easy to use. Web addresses point researchers to the many sources for finding free Tennessee legal material online.Concise explanations of resources needed for researching federal law and the law of other states are provided throughout. Thus, Tennessee Legal Research can be used as a stand-alone text or in conjunction with a research text concentrating on federal law.

This is very easy to make, and tastes excellent!! My husband said it's the best fish I've ever made. :) I did have to substitute some things, like balsamic vinagrette (instead of balsamic vinegar) and a ginger salad dressing (instead of grated fresh ginger). It still turned out great, so it'd probably be even better if I made it with the correct ingredients!
Excellent. I had never made mahi mahi before so I was a bit worried but this recipe turned out excellent!
Really good, we'll use this recipe again.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - The state's annual report on workers' compensation insurance says Florida's market is "competitive," and its availability is not a significant problem.
The Office of Insurance Regulation issued the report Wednesday on the coverage employers buy for workers who are hurt on the job.
The clean bill of health contrasts with problems plaguing Florida's auto and property insurance systems.
The former is riddled with fraud and the later has viability and availability issues despite high rates.
The report notes Florida's workers compensation insurance rates this year are 58.6 percent lower than they were in 2003. That's even though an 8.9 percent rate increase went into effect Sunday.
The rate reductions followed legislation that made a number of changes in the system including lowering the cap on lawyer's fees.

Incarcerated Political Prisoner in Urgent Need of Treatment
Farah Vazehan incarcerated Iranian citizen behind bars at Evin prison is in urgent need of furlough in order to receive medical treatment. Judicial officials however, continue to ignore her dire condition.
Vazehan who is currently serving a 17 year prison sentence, is suffering from a tumor in her feet. Her physical well being is in grave danger and she is unable to perform mundane, daily tasks.
According to the Human Rights House of Iran (RAHAHA) despite suffering from an internal infection and her dire physical condition, her medical needs have been neglected to date. Vazehan's family have requested that the prosecutor's office grant her furlough from prison in order to receive medical treatment, but have not yet received a response to their request.
It is worth mentioning that despite complaints by human rights activists in the recent years regarding the lack of access to appropriate medical treatment for political prisoners in Iran's notorious prisons, judicial officials have continued to ignore their health and well being.
Farah Vazehan was arrested on December 29, 2009 at home in Tehran. Her arrest took place two days after the Ashura uprising and mass protests by citizens against the election results in Iran. She was transferred to solitary confinement at Evin's ward 209.
On August 4th, 2010, Vazehan was sentenced to death after eight months of temporary detention. The ruling was rendered by Judge Salavati of the Revolutionary Court's 15th branch and Vazehan was charged with "participating in street protests", "being a Mohareb [enemy of God] as a result of "collaboration with the Mojahedin Khalgh (MKO)"
Vazehan denied these charges in court. Though her death sentence was initially upheld by the appeals court, it was later over ruled by the 28th branch of the Revolutionary Court in January 2010. She was later sentenced to 17 years imprisonment and exile to Rajai Shahr prison.

Right after quite a long time associated with holidays, all of us decided to cover the actual a few previous game titles that have been in a very excessive demands.
healthcare providers to patient population-specific preparation for communication with the end goal of improving markers of better delivery of care including greater patient satisfaction and referral and reduce incidents of malpractice.
At the end of the day, I believe it's the consumer's responsibility to do their own due diligence before investing in any program, but I definitely want to share with you what I've discovered during my own research in case it helps.https://www.rebelmouse.com/texttheromancebackmichaelfiore/
Learning how to talk dirty to a guy is a surprisingly hot topic and there just isn't a lot of good stuff out there if you want to learn how to do it without feeling stupid, embarrassed, or totally awkward in the process.
Every man in this world wants to date the hottest woman. However, that will never be possible if no woman finds you attractive. If you are trying to get your 'special' girl but don't have a clue how to approach her then you're not alone. Many men want to hear 'YES' from the girl that they're attracted to but have no idea where to start. This is where Joshua Pellicer's The Tao of Badass shines.the tao of badass review

so bloody tired of all these stupid advertisement spammers.

My captcha word was position62. What is that? 69 last week?
Cleavage 8/10
'Thank you!' 10/10
he looked down her shirt XD
And yet most people wouldnt care if he was. Man she is like really cute…...wonder what her email is…..
Kinda looks like the dude is looking down her shirt as he compliments her work.
thank you my friend. Its good to see someone else on this site has at least a little sense
Good one…very astute take on the pink ghetto.
Shes hot…... dude its hard69….. duh
Nearly see-through bra? hard63
Good work Kelsie. You didn't know you had a second job did you?
Lol are you holding a gun? upside down no less XD
Oh yes keep taking deep breaths uhh oh yes
... I actually feel the same way. I'll feel slighted, and be plotting my hideous revenge and fantasizing about a serial killing hut filled with torture devices, but then the person will apologize or compliment me, and I'm all sunshine and they're my favorite person in the world!!!
She's definitely a cutie. The insta-smile and "thank you!" is hilarious. I sincerely hope she never reads some of these comments, or 5SF might lose some of its color some time.
That bra color looks good on you Kelsey.
Was that a gun?
This is great, and another reminder of how incredibly gorgeous all of the 5SF women are.
Nice undershirt.
Perverted-comments aside, this is hilarious. Absolutely true.
Nice stapler, Brian.
Sounds like me at my job…
Looks like she won't be following up with her plans
@Derek: might be a sneak peak at a future 5SF. I'm guessing Dude-Bro Party Massacre 4: The Stapling.
why is brian holding an open stapler so close to his face?
i would piss her off just to she that face she makes
it would make my day until she murders me with a keyboard
i always laugh when you guys use your real name…
Never piss off the secretary. She can destroy your business from within. God help them if they forget to give her the praise.
So I assume she distributes the empty three ring binders? Fantastic
Haha, that was funny.
Wow, she's cuter when she's evil.
this always stops my revenge plans.
Fuck, you beat me to the punch, Steve.
That's exactly what I was going to say. So I second it!
Story of my life.
Revenge FIRST, glowing with happiness at being praised later.
Those things aren't mutually exclusive, right?

A desktop Chrome OS PC - but can it cut the mustard?
By Matt Hanson from TechRadar
TechRadar's verdict
"The Chromebox makes a lot of sense for Chrome OS because desktops are always online. Chrome OS is far from perfect, but this is a feasibly and cheap second computer."
- Easy to set up
- Snappy web browsing
- Chrome OS improvements
- Small and attractive
- No HDMI
- Poor built-in speakers
- Still underpowered

2014 PacTrans Regional Transportation Conference: The IOUs of Safety – Infrastructure, Operations and Users
The 2014 PacTrans Regional Transportation Conference brings together the Pacific Northwest's transportation community to network and share current research results for technology transfer and ideas for future collaboration. This year's conference focuses on transportation safety; we will discuss research needs and developments in designing safe infrastructure, safe operations, and safe users. Showcasing research products completed in the 2013-2014 academic year and initiating possible technology transfer processes are important objectives of this conference. We'll also focus on workforce development and education and how PacTrans is involved in training and identifying the transportation industry's needs.
The conference will start with a plenary session featuring public and private sector views of the state of transportation safety. A lunchtime poster session will include a presentation of current PacTrans research. Afternoon sessions will focus on the changing educational needs of the transportation workforce and the secrets for moving research into practice, and we'll conclude the day with a discussion of PacTrans' future directions. All conference attendees will have a chance to participate.

Peer Exchange Visit Brings Tennessee DOT to the PacTrans STAR Lab
On July 23, officials from the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) visited the Smart Transportation Applications and Research (STAR) Lab to learn about its research and technologies regarding transportation data collection, management, and analytics tools. As part of a larger exchange event between Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and TDOT, Dr. Yinhai Wang, STAR Lab director, introduced the TDOT visitors to the lab's facilities and recent research focuses, including data quality control, mobile device based data collection and knowledge discovery, and DRIVE Net.
A test drive through DRIVE Net (Digital Roadway Interactive Visualization and Evaluation Network) revealed a robust capability to access and analyze datasets from WSDOT, including traffic detector data, incident data, INRIX data, and weather data. The network has the potential to answer important transportation questions, including how many congestion spots exist in a certain area, when they occur, and the ability to determine congestion patterns from the data.
The TDOT traveled to a number of Washington agencies, programs, facilities and partners in the exchange visit, and the stop at STAR Lab raised a great deal of interest in the lab's work. "Very impressive," said one TDOT representative. "I'm very happy to see your operations."

All you need to read in the other general journalsBMJ 2010; 340 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/bmj.c1476 (Published 16 March 2010) Cite this as: BMJ 2010;340:c1476
Old treatments have a low profile in leading medical journals
Between 2008 and 2009, six leading medical journals published 328 studies evaluating drug treatments for disease. Less than a third (104/328) compared one established treatment with another, or otherwise helped doctors and patients make everyday decisions about which treatment to use, which dose to prescribe, how to avoid side effects, or how long to treat. Researchers trawled through the six journals to try and quantify a much publicised blind spot in biomedical research—comparative effectiveness studies evaluating existing treatments and informing real world choices.
Among the 104 comparative effectiveness studies they found, few compared drug treatments with non-drug treatments such as behaviour change (11/104), and even fewer included a cost effectiveness analysis (2/104). One in six (16/104) compared different dosing strategies, and only one in five (20/104) focused on drug safety.
Nearly all studies relied on non-commercial funding (90/104), because commercial organisations are necessarily more interested in evaluating new drugs against placebos, for the regulators. The US government recently pledged more than $1bn (£0.66bn; €0.73bn) for research dedicated to helping doctors and patients get the most out of existing treatments. This snapshot should help direct the money where it is needed most. Used wisely, the new money has the potential to transform health care in the US, adds one observer (p 985).
Donating a kidney looks safe in a large study from the US
Live kidney donors are one answer to the chronic shortage of kidneys for transplantation⇑. But is it safe to donate a kidney to a relative? The most reassuring data so far come from a large cohort of more than 80 000 adult donors who had a nephrectomy between 1994 and 2009 in the US. Just 25 died within 90 days of surgery—an associated mortality of 3.1 per 10 000 donations, which is substantially lower than the mortality associated with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (18/10 000).
Long term survival was excellent. Donors were no more likely to die during six years of follow-up than matched controls from the general population. In fact, they were less likely to die, although this advantage was probably caused by residual differences in health and fitness that were unaccounted for by matching and adjustments. Donors are carefully selected after a battery of tests, say the authors. Controls were selected using basic demographic and comorbidity information from a less detailed national survey. The donors were probably healthier.
Surgery was riskier for men than for women (mortality 5.1 v 1.7 per 10 000 donors; risk ratio 3.0, 95% CI 1.3 to 6.9), and black donors had a higher surgical mortality than white or Hispanic donors (7.6 v 2.6 and 2.0 per 10 000 donors; 3.1, 1.3 to 7.1). These subgroups should be counselled accordingly, say the authors. The small minority of donors with hypertension (2%) had the highest risks of all.
An oral drug for hard to treat head lice
Head lice are becoming resistant to commonly used topical insecticides, and researchers have begun to look for alternatives. The oral drug ivermectin, which is known to be active against other ectoparasites such as scabies, cured more head lice infestations than topical malathion in a cluster randomised trial (95.2% (378/397) v 85% (352/414); P<0.001; number needed to treat 9.8, 95% CI 6.4 to 21.7). The authors randomised 376 families with persistent infestations of head lice despite at least one treatment with a topical insecticide. Affected family members had a mean age of 10 and had two treatment sessions eight days apart, in a double dummy design. The active component was either 400 µg per kg of oral ivermectin or a lotion containing 0.5% malathion, which was applied to dry hair and left in for 10-12 hours. The trial was paid for by companies with a commercial interest in ivermectin.
The ivermectin seemed to work significantly better after 15 days and caused no more side effects than the malathion lotion. One 7 year old girl had a convulsion six days after taking ivermectin. After investigation, the seizure was attributed to an eplileptogenic focus in the right centrotemporal area. She made a full recovery.
Elective coronary angiography is poorly targeted
People with suspected coronary artery disease go through a variety of tests and assessments before they get as far as coronary angiography, but selection remains poor. In one large cohort from the US⇑, only 37.6% (149<thin739/398 978) of adults tested with angiography had clinically relevant coronary artery disease. The rest were exposed to the risks and radiation unnecessarily, say the authors.
The study looked at 398 978 adults with suspected heart disease. They had elective angiography prompted by a combination of symptoms, risk factors, and diagnostic work-up that could include any non-invasive test. More than a third (39.2%) had effectively clean coronary arteries, defined by the authors as less than 20% stenosis in all coronary vessels. The usual risk factors—including male sex, age, diabetes, smoking, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, and peripheral vascular disease—independently predicted obstructive coronary artery disease on angiography. So did typical chest pain (adjusted odds ratio relative to no symptoms 1.91, 95% CI 1.78 to 2.05).
Most of the cohort (84%) had non-invasive tests before their angiography. Two thirds had positive results, but non-invasive tests didn't add much to prediction models using just risk factors and symptoms.
Improving the diagnostic performance of preliminary investigations such as computed tomography, echocardiography, and stress tests may help target angiography better, say the authors. Clinicians should also think carefully before recommending angiography for people without symptoms (30% of this cohort). Relief of symptoms is the main goal of treatments for coronary artery disease.
Variations in blood pressure matter too
Chronically unstable blood pressure is a bad sign for people with treated hypertension or a previous transient ischaemic attack (TIA). A series of analyses has confirmed that long term variability is associated with an increased risk of stroke, and that the excess risk is independent of average systolic blood pressure⇑.
Four cohorts of people with TIA or minor stroke and one cohort of people with treated hypertension contributed to the analyses. All the cohorts came from large published randomised trials. The authors focused on variation in blood pressure between clinic visits. Adults with TIA who were in the top 10th of variability were six times more likely to have a stroke than those in the bottom 10th (hazard ratio 6.22, 95% CI 4.16 to 9.29). The corresponding hazard ratio for people with treated hypertension was 3.25 (2.32 to 4.54).
A commentary says these data could explain why some antihypertensive drugs are better than others at preventing stroke (p 867). In a linked systematic review, calcium channel blockers and non-loop diuretics were significantly better at controlling variations in blood pressure than other drug classes. They were also better at preventing strokes. Because none of the trials recorded variation in blood pressure within individuals, the authors used variation between individuals as a proxy.
A link between variable blood pressure and stroke is not new, says the commentary, but these analyses make it clear that we should be thinking beyond "usual" or average blood pressure when making treatment decisions. Peak systolic blood pressure also predicted stroke in the TIA cohorts. Again, the effect was independent of mean systolic blood pressure.
Light drinking linked to slower weight gain for middle aged women
Middle aged women who reported a light or moderate alcohol intake were less likely than non-drinkers to become overweight or obese during a 13 year study. Nearly 20 000 female healthcare workers had a normal body weight when recruited to the Women's Health Study in the early 1990s. The cohort gradually gained weight over the next 13 years—41.3% (7942/19 220) became overweight and 3.8% (732/19 220) became obese. The authors modelled their self reported drinking habits against risk of weight gain and found a clear and significant trend—those who drank most gained least, up to a threshold of around 30-40 g of alcohol a day (three half pints of beer or three small glasses of wine). After extensive adjustments to account for the different lifestyles and diets of women who drink more or less alcohol, the relative risks for becoming overweight or obese fell from 1.00 for non-drinkers (reference) to a low of 0.78 (95% CI 0.67 to 0.90) for the small number of women who drank at least 30 g alcohol a day. The link survived sensitivity analyses and seemed the same for women of all ages.
The authors can't confidently explain their findings, although others have reported similar associations in female nurses. The evidence so far points to a distinct difference between the sexes. Alcohol is generally associated with weight gain in men, possibly because they drink on top of their usual dietary intake. In this study, as in others, women who drank more tended to eat less.
Smart tax incentives could improve a nation's diet
Pizza and sugary drinks are getting cheaper in real terms, and a growing number of experts think policy makers should tax unhealthy food and drink in an attempt to reduce consumption. One team of researchers recently calculated that an 18% surcharge on pizza and soda would reduce overall daily energy intake by 56 kcal (234 kJ) a person, causing an average weight loss of 2.25 kg for each person each year.
These final estimates came from a study that modelled the changing price of various foods, both healthy and unhealthy, with the diet and body metrics of 5115 US adults who were surveyed at regular intervals over 20 years. A $1 (£0.66; €0.73) increase in the price of both pizza and soda was associated with significantly lower consumption, lower daily energy intake, and lower body weight.
The data weren't perfect, and the results for hamburgers were unconvincing, but a linked comment (p 405) says this study adds to other evidence supporting the case for taxing unhealthy food and drink, particularly sweet fizzy drinks such as cola. The extra revenue could pay for subsidies to cut the price of fruit and vegetables, tax incentives to encourage good retailers to open in low income communities, and measures to freshen up the nation's frozen and well travelled school dinners.

Hi: 6° Lo:5°
By Ian Dipple Thursday 14 August 2014 Updated: 15/08 09:08
MORE than 100 people have backed an open letter to the town's MP calling for her to do more to push the Government to increase its role in ending the conflict in Gaza.
Redditch Palestine Solidarity Campaign gathered the signatures in less than a week on a letter urging Karen Lumley to put pressure on ministers to do all they can to prevent the Israeli government engaging in collective punishment of the civilians of Gaza. It also urges her to push the Foreign Office to prevent the sale of arms to Israel and to remind the Prime Minister of his acknowledgement of Israel's economic blockade on Palestine as a major cause of the conflict.
The current conflict began over a month ago with Israel stating the aim was to stop rocket attacks from Gaza which killed one and seriously injured at least four other Israeli citizens.
More than 1,800 Palestinians have been killed since the fighting began - the vast majority of them civillians - with at least 400 children losing their lives and another 200 being injured.
A fragile ceasefire was in place at the time the Standard went to press as talks continued to negotiate a long-term settlement.
Mike Bennett, of Redditch Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), said Mrs Lumley had been sympathetic to the group's concerns and pledged to act on them.
"This is just a beginning for Redditch PSC. We are now making plans to formally establish a branch and ensure that actions are being taken in the town on a regular basis to raise awareness of the occupation, the siege and bombardment of Gaza and the campaign for peace and justice in Israel-Palestine."
Residents are now being urged to write to Mrs Lumley to thank her for listening to the group's concerns, press her to join other MPs in pushing for an arms embargo and remind her of the importance of ensuring the blockade on Gaza is lifted as part of a genuine negotiated settlement.
The group also plans to hold its first public meeting in the near future which will include a showing of the film Five Broken Cameras.
Mrs Lumley has already written to the Prime Minister to voice her concern about the current situation.
She said while she supported Israel's right to defend its territory, some of the state's recent actions had been 'simply indefensible'.
"The current situation is harmful to prospects for the Middle East Peace Process and Britain must do all it can to condemn it."

Livr App: Breathalyzer Drunk Social Network
Finally a Social Network for drunken people has been created. The Livr App has created a way for inebriated internet users to access a network of drunken fun. The Livr app has many features, some morally questionable, such as geotagging popular bars where there is high user activity, rewarding users with unlocked features that have a high blood alcohol content and a blackout button that permanently clears out the information stores about your night out (this actually sounds useful!) The app will be live for public consumption in spring 2014.
"LIVR™ isn't just another tired social network. It's an online party at all times… guaranteed. No baby photos. No puppies. Mom isn't here. Just a global network of similarly buzzed people looking to have a good time. Join the LIVR Life™!"

Bulgarian Greco-Roman coach starts hunger strike
Mar 4, 2013, 8:51 AM EST
Bulgarian national wrestling coach Armen Nazaryan has begun a three week hunger strike to protest the IOC's decision to recommend his sport's removal from the 2020 Olympic Games.
The 39-year-old Greco-Roman coach, who won Olympics gold for Armenia in 1996 and for Bulgaria in 2000, said he'll "only take juices" until the Euro Championships in Georgia March 22.
Nazaryan's protest follows that of Bulgarian countrymen Valentin Yordanov, who returned his Atlanta gold to the IOC last month, Russia's Sagid Murtazalie of Russia, who returned his Sydney heavyweight gold last week.
Both men called it one of the hardest things they've ever had to do, but hope their acts will bring awareness to the cause. Wrestling can still earn its spot in the Games back if it can survive two IOC votes this year against the other prospective sports vying for Olympics status.

Date of record
The date of record is the date on which you must be the owner of stock in order to receive a dividend payment.
Expanded Definition
When a company declares a dividend, they also state on which day you must be the owner of the stock in order to receive that payment. Because of the delay between buying stock and the settlement and recording of that purchase, you must actually purchase the shares at least two days prior to the day of record (that is, before the ex-dividend date) in order to own those shares in time.

Connacht got the new season off to a promising start as they beat Zebre 25-16 at the Sportsground in the opening round of the RaboDirect PRO12 campaign.
Tries from Nathan White, Matt Healy and Fionn Carr, coupled with 10 points from the boot of Dan Parks, ensured new coach Pat Lam got off to a winning start.
Prop White, who turned 32 on Wednesday, accepted a belated birthday present in the form of an intercept try as he sent Connacht ahead in the fourth minute.
Luciano Orquera replied with a penalty but Connacht pushed 12-3 in front when Healy scored a classy converted try on the half hour.
Parks added three more points to Connacht's tally before half-time, as their scrum continued to impress.
Zebre improved on the restart with Luciano Orquera kicking two penalties to one from Parks, before Connacht got their counter-attacking game going and Carr flew in for their third try.
The visitors added a deserved consolation score from Luca Redolfini in the final minute, despite losing fellow replacement Matteo Pratichetti to the sin-bin.Full-back Dion Berryman, one of five debutants in the Italians' starting line-up, tested out Robbie Henshaw's defence before Connacht seized an early lead.
White was alert to a quickly-taken Zebre line-out, intercepting the throw to canter in from 25 metres out. Parks' conversion attempt went wide.
Orquera closed the gap to 5-3 after Connacht were pinged for not rolling away and amid a scrappy error-strewn start, Parks missed two penalties set up by Connacht's forceful maul and scrum.
The game lulled along until Parks spread play intelligently with a skip pass in the 29th minute, Carr came in off his wing and linked superbly with fellow winger Healy who shimmied and then beat his man on the outside.
Parks' kicking radar was bang on target from the touchline conversion, the seven points lifting Connacht's confidence and their forwards took their cue.
The westerners turned over a Zebre scrum with George Naoupu doing well to control possession at the base, and that good work led to a first successful penalty from Parks and a 15-3 interval lead.
Zebre had done very little wrong in defence, working hard and maintaining their shape and discipline for the most part.
An instinctive break from 13-times capped All Black Leonard also gave a glimpse of their attacking potential.
The Italian outfit opened the scoring in the second half, winning a scrum penalty which Orquera stuck over with six minutes gone.
The territory swung in improving Zebre's favour during the third quarter, the tension increasing for the home support in the 4,083 crowd as Orquera cut Connacht's lead to six points.
Parks snapped back three points as Lam looked to his bench, with young Kiwi Jake Heenan making his mark with a couple of useful turnovers.
Man-of-the-match Henshaw and pacey replacements Tiernan O'Halloran and Paul O'Donohoe also lifted the province late on, the latter releasing Carr for his 75th minute try just to the right of the posts.
Parks and Gonzalo Garcia had missed penalty attempts before that and Pratichetti's sin-binning for foul play left Zebre with 14 men for the closing seven minutes.
Park's conversion took Connacht 25-9 clear before reserve prop Redolfini rumbled over for a try his team's second half efforts merited.Grand Final 2013/14. Click here to bet.
