Feb 29, 2012
Small cells and especially the so-called femtocells that are currently used by mobile phone carriers to give their customers an option to fix bad reception in their homes.

West Brom striker Matej Vydra has called for manager Pepe Mel to partner him with Victor Anichebe in attack, according to Sky Sports.
The pair came off the bench in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Fulham, a move that proved vital as Vydra grabbed the late leveller.
The 21-year-old believes that he could form a great partnership with former Everton man Anichebe if they are given the chance.
"If me and Victor play together that is better for me because he is strong and I am quick," said Vydra.
"It is good for me but it is the coach's call. For me it is always better if I play with a strong striker. The goal was a big moment for me. I went on the pitch and it was important to score a goal."
Despite the dropped points at Fulham, the Czech forward believes that it was an important result for the Baggies.
West Brom currently sit just in seventeenth place, just one point above the relegation zone, and four points away from bottom club Fulham.
"Before the game we needed three points, but we only got one," added Vydra.
"But if we'd lost to Fulham and they'd taken three points they would have been closer to us, so in that way it's a good result. We dropped two points but after the game it is a good point for us."

Men's Soccer Falls to UMW in Regular Season Finale
Wednesday, October 27, 2010
Fredericksburg, Va. – Marymount University's men's soccer team fell 1-0 to Mary Washington in Capital Athletic Conference action on Wednesday afternoon. The Saints close out the regular season and snap a three-game winning-streak with the loss.
Mary Washington (9-5-2, 4-3-1 CAC) jumped on the board with an early goal in the 10th minute before holding on the victory. T.L. Tutor scored the only goal of the game for UMW with an assist from Robby Davis.
The Saints (8-8-2, 2-4-2 CAC) outshot the Eagles 10-9 but couldn't find the back of the net. Philippe Millogo and Kjell Crooke each tallied three shot apiece for Marymount.
In goal, William Brahmstedt collected three saves for MU while his counterpart Blake Weiss grabbed four in the shutout.
Marymount's future is in the hands of a pair of rescheduled CAC contests on Thursday. The Saints are still in contention for one of the final two CAC Tournament spots depending on the outcomes of the Stevenson/Frostburg State and Wesley/St. Mary's (Md.) games.

Wayward footballer turns to iPod cure
Australian Rules footballer Sam Reid of the Sydney Swans may turn to technology in an attempt to repair his wayward kicking. Reid plays as a key forward, a position in which his job* is to launch his 195cm frame over the top of other players, catch the ball and then kick a goal. Reid's problem is that, in 2012, he's been doing …
You get a point for missing...
...everyone's a winner, baby!!
Oh, you Australians!! What with calling Fosters and Castlemaine lager and now this!! When will you guys quit kidding around?
Re: You get a point for missing...
Darts must really confuse you then.
Re: You get a point for missing...
you're right: I always try to miss the point with darts!! Ouch!!
Fat blokes, swigging lager and throwing pointed sticks at a board. Not quite a sport now is it.
<<Paris cos' she's always up for team sports - allegedly!!>>
Of course
there's an App for that.
As a pom who has actually watched Aussie footy I am not sure your comment 'it all makes sense when you see the game' is entirely accurate.
You should try understanding the Oz vs Paddy compromise rules then :)
"It all makes sense when you see the game"
We get said 'sport' here on Canadian TV, and let me tell you authoritatively: it really, really doesn't.
Now, give me a sport with nice simple rules everyone can understand. Like Canadian football...
Re: No.
Actually, Adam - we can't talk... The CFL gives the kicker a point for missing too, as long as the ball travels through the end zone and out of bounds....
Re: No.
That was meant to be a joke. Point being, the rules of all football codes are similarly impossible to understand intuitively.
Just about every major sports team in the US runs practices with loud speakers blaring artificial crowd noise. Some of them even change the recordings depending on how loud individual stadiums get.
You get a point for just missing
Other than that, your explanation of what this bloke does for a living is not simplified in the least.
[Insert comment about American Football being better]
Happy Friday :D

CBS is asking stars not to bare too much skin at the Grammy Awards on Sunday.
The network requests that "buttocks and female breasts are adequately covered" for the televised award show. The memo sent out Wednesday also warned against "see-through clothing," exposure of "the genital region" and said that "thong type costumes are problematic."
Representatives for CBS and the Recording Academy declined to comment on Thursday. Deadline Hollywood first reported the memo.
CBS broadcast the infamous 2004 Super Bowl halftime show that included Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction." The network was initially fined by the Federal Communications Commission, though the fine was later overturned.
The 55th annual Grammy Awards will be held Sunday at 8 p.m. EST at Los Angles' Staples Center.

The purpose of this study was to quantify postimplantation migration of percutaneously implanted cylindrical gold seeds ("seeds") and platinum endovascular embolization coils ("coils") for tumor tracking in pulmonary stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR). We retrospectively analyzed the migration of markers in 32 consecutive patients with computed tomography scans postimplantation and at simulation. We implanted 147 markers (59 seeds, 88 coils) in or around 34 pulmonary tumors over 32 procedures, with one lesion implanted twice. Marker coordinates were rigidly aligned by minimizing fiducial registration error (FRE), the root mean square of the differences in marker locations for each tumor between scans. To also evaluate whether single markers were responsible for most migration, we aligned with and without the outlier causing the largest FRE increase per tumor. We applied the resultant transformation to all markers. We evaluated migration of individual markers and FRE of each group. Median scan interval was 8 days. Median individual marker migration was 1.28 mm (interquartile range [IQR] 0.78-2.63 mm). Median lesion FRE was 1.56 mm (IQR 0.92-2.95 mm). Outlier identification yielded 1.03 mm median migration (IQR 0.52-2.21 mm) and 1.97 mm median FRE (IQR 1.44-4.32 mm). Outliers caused a mean and median shift in the centroid of 1.22 and 0.80 mm (95th percentile 2.52 mm). Seeds and coils had no statistically significant difference. Univariate analysis suggested no correlation of migration with the number of markers, contact with the chest wall, or time elapsed. Marker migration between implantation and simulation is limited and unlikely to cause geometric miss during tracking.

TRENTON, Ga. -- An investigator testified in a 19-year-old man's murder trial that the defendant said he had hit the victim after being threatened with a gun during a drug deal.
But former Dade County Sheriff's Detective Brittany Gilleland told jurors Wednesday that authorities never found a gun and Johnathan Ellison later admitted he made up the story.
Gilleland testified for the prosecution during Ellison's trial in the stabbing death of 35-year-old Antwane Hyatte. Ellison is charged with two counts of felony murder and one count each of malice murder, aggravated assault and armed robbery.
John Oglesby, 27, faces the same charges in the case. His trial is set for next year.
On Wednesday, the jury was shown a video of Ellison's interview by Gilleland and former Detective Nathan Lee hours after he was arrested March 17.
The defense had tried to keep the two-hour video from being shown on the grounds that the interview was improperly conducted, but Superior Court Judge Brian House allowed it.
On the video, Ellison, 19, appears nervous. He keeps his head down and can barely be heard whispering throughout the interview.
After being asked multiple times by investigators if he was only defending himself, Ellison says Hyatte pulled a gun when they were exchanging marijuana during a drug deal at Ellison's home. With more coaxing, Ellison tells investigators he punched Hyatte in the face, then stabbed him several times in the stomach.
"I didn't want him to be hurt," Ellison whispered. "I just wanted him to get off me."
The tape shows Ellison reluctant to answer questions about Oglesby, who was in Ellison's home when Hyatte was killed.
Georgia Bureau of Investigation medical experts testified earlier Wednesday about Hyatte's autopsy results and the DNA found on two knives in the house.
Forensic analyst Kanesha Leiu testified that one knife contained DNA from Hyatte, but the other blade had DNA that wasn't from Hyatte, Ellison or Oglesby.
Later, another forensic expert testified that she found the tip of a knife lodged inside Hyatte's back when she examined him.
GBI Medical Examiner Dr. Stacey Desamours testified that she identified 16 stab wounds on Hyatte's body, one that had pierced his heart and another that left the knife tip embedded in his back.
But no explanation was given in court for where the knife came from or to whom it belonged.
Testimony will continue today with more recorded interviews with Ellison.

My Alcoholic Holiday Season
December 21, 2011
If you're like most folks, you'll be spending a fair chunk of this month in a tipsy haze as you flit from one holiday party to the next in a halcyon glow of seasonal intoxicants. And who can blame you? December in America is when we happily mistake the Christmas spirit for the Christmas spirits. Spiked eggnog, of course, flows as freely as organically farmed pine needles across your living room floor. Hot toddies welcome flushed cheeks in from the cold and novelty tipples—from winter ales to peppermint punch—dot the holiday landscape.
The Establishment vs. Newt: A Long List of Republicans Who Want Anybody But Gingrich
December 09, 2011
As a former Republican House speaker and veteran of the culture wars of the 1990s, Newt Gingrich understandably earned his share of liberal detractors. But who knew how many enemies he'd made among the Republican political elite? As Gingrich's recent surge in the polls moves ever closer to bearing electoral fruit in the Iowa Caucuses, it's fair to say that the GOP political establishment is freaking out.

Super Committee Fails?
November 20, 2011
On Friday I said we'd probably get a "ticktock" of how the super committee failed Thanksgiving weekend. I was off by five days. In Politico today Mike Allen has a rough-draft ticktock of how the super committee failed. This is testament, I guess, to Politico's slightly insane commitment to getting the news before it happens; to Allen's particular skill at doing so; and to the heretofore unacknowledged apparent reality that the super committee was pretty much destined to fail from the beginning. Allen reports that two members--Rep.
How Iowa's Social Conservatives Lost Their Influence
November 18, 2011
This weekend's "Thanksgiving Family Forum" at a Des Moines megachurch probably seemed like a great idea to Iowa social conservatives when it was first developed. You'd have the presidential candidates arrayed around a "Thanksgiving table," obediently waiting for a symbolic serving of activist support. In the pews would be thousands of stolid Iowans of the sort most likely to show up at the January 3 caucuses. Wielding the microphone would be focus-group king Frank Luntz, probing the worldviews of the candidates to determine their fidelity to a teavangelical, big-God, small-government creed.
More Super Committee Chicken-Littleism
November 14, 2011
The only thing that's alarming about the super committee's struggle to reach a deal on $1.2 trillion in deficit reduction is the eagerness of reporters and Washington chin-pullers to be alarmed. What exactly will happen if Thanksgiving comes and no deal is reached? "If the panel falls short," Robert Pear explains in the Nov. 14 New York Times, "a series of automatic cuts, split evenly between military and civilian programs, would take effect, starting in 2013." This might be cause for alarm if the current month were Nov.
Influential Me
November 07, 2011
Never in my life have I written anything that made so little impression on the reading public as my last TRB column ("Trigger Happy"), wherein I explained that it doesn't matter that the super committee won't meet its eve-of-Thanksgiving deadline to find $1.2 trillion in budget cuts and/or tax increases. (I include in that calculus the three years I spent writing for and eventually editing Highlights, my high school newspaper, 1973-1976.) Indeed, I wrote in my column, blowing the deadline would likely be best for all concerned. Let me repeat that. Forget about the super committee deadline.
Trigger Happy
October 26, 2011
Everybody agrees that the bipartisan deficit super committee had better hurry up and strike a deal to cut the federal budget by $1.2 trillion so it can meet its November 23 deadline. If it doesn't, then all hell will break loose. Except it won't. You may have lost track of the deficit story after Congress and President Obama averted catastrophe at the end of July by agreeing to raise the debt ceiling. Perhaps I can help.
September 28, 2011
In the good old days, they were called "the cardinals," because the chairmen of the appropriations committee were so powerful. An insular group, they met behind closed doors, and, without wasting their time with input from anyone, they decided how the government should spend precious tax dollars. The most legendary example of the appropriator's might is Charlie Wilson, the Texas representative who launched a covert war against the Soviets in Afghanistan in the 1980s, simply through canny use of the power of the purse. How times have changed.
Hope and Change: Meet the Ex-Obama Staffers Getting Arrested in Front of the White House
September 03, 2011
Each morning for the past two weeks, scores of respectable-looking protestors ushered themselves into single file lines, walked determinedly through Washington's Lafayette Park, sat down on the sidewalk in front of the White House, arranged themselves in rows as if for a class photo, and waited patiently to be arrested (the violation: blocking pedestrian traffic).

[High-tech stuff like MRIs and particle accelerators rely on it, and the Sun is full of it, but we are running out – so what happened to all our helium?]
THE UNIVERSE WAS BORN as a roiling soup of energy about 13.8billion years ago in the event known the 'Big Bang'. When things had cooled down a bit, the energy condensed into the first particles and, for the first few hundred million years or so, the entire Universe was a vast cloud of hydrogen and helium gas. Today, despite the best efforts of the stars to convert them into heavier elements, hydrogen and helium still dominate the mass of the cosmos.
Helium the second lightest, and second most common, element (behind hydrogen) still accounts for about 24 per cent of the mass of the entire Universe (that almost a quarter of everything everywhere). Yet here on Earth, it is incredibly rare – making up just 0.00052 per cent of our atmosphere – and our supplies are running out. By some estimates, the Earth's helium reserves could be exhausted within just 30-50 years.
Now, we all know the 'hilarity' that ensues when a party balloon-toting joker uses the gas to perform dubious Micky Mouse impressions, but, believe it or not, helium has a serious side.
FOR MOST OF US, the last time we wondered how fast we could make something spin was probably as a child on one of those lunch-exorcising tea-cup rides you find at underfunded fair grounds. But, for one group of scientists at least, the quest for spin didn't end in childhood.
A team of researchers at the University of St Andrews has succeeded in creating the world's fastest spinning man-made object – a teeny tiny crystalline sphere set spinning at an astonishing 600 million revolutions per minute.
But they didn't do it just for larks, the stunt did have a serious research goal. You see, physicists have a very good framework of rules that governs how macroscopic objects behave (laid out by the likes of Newton and Einstein) and they have a good framework that describes how the quantum world of smaller-than-an-atom-type stuff works, but they don't really know what happens with stuff than sits on the border between them.
[Above: Elon Musk's proposed 'Hyperloop' transport system would travel at speeds of up to 768mph and complete a journey of 380miles in just 30minutes – a positively glacial pace when compared with a similar proposal from 1825. Image: Tesla Motors]
LET'S FACE IT, at one time or another, we've all wished we could travel in tiny capsules that are sucked along tiny claustrophobic vacuum tubes at hundreds or thousands of mile an hour. Well, if recent headlines are to be believed, you might get that chance sooner than you think.
Last week, PayPal, SpaceX and Tesla Motors founder, Elon Musk, announced his ambition to build a solar-powered vacuum tube, called Hyperloop, that will be able to syphon commuters to their destination at a head-spinning 768mph. At that speed you could cover the 380-mile journey between San Francisco and Los Angeles (where he proposes it be built) in just 30 minutes – all for the bargain price of £4.8billion.
The announcement was greeted by fevered media coverage, which announced that the 'future of transportation has arrived, and quickly followed by blogging naysayers, who derided it as over-ambitious and likely to cost at least twice his estimate.
Maybe they're right – traveling through tubes at the speed of sound certainly sounds like a deluded futurist's science-fiction fantasy.
Imagine then, the reaction if someone was to pipe up and announce their plans to build a vacuum-based, tubular transport system that would whisk you along the same near-400-mile journey, not in a glacial 30 minutes, but in fewer than five minutes. Now that's futuristic fantasizing.
WHEN SCIENCE FICTION WRITERS first imagined humanity's spacefaring future, they gave their protagonists spacecraft that could take off, pop into space, land and then take off again. No sensible futurist would imagine a successful space-traveling culture that has to travel in a spacecraft that, as they ascended, would drop 90 per cent of its structure and reach space in a teeny-tiny pod that can do little more than float around for a while before dropping back to Earth on the end of a parachute.
Imagine how dull the likes of Star Wars would be if, upon landing, Han Solo had to send the Millennium Falcon back to the factory to be rebuilt, or, an episode of Star Trek where Kirk could only leave the planet if it wasn't too cloudy? By anyone's standards we are not a spacefaring race – space-visiting perhaps, but not spacefaring.
True, with the likes of Virgin Galactic offering space tourism experiences, you could argue that we are taking our first tentative steps towards a plausible sci-fi future, but even this falls short. Virgin's spacecraft, SpaceShip Two, however impressive, doesn't really qualify as space travel – there is a huge technological difference between sub-orbital flights and actually breaking free of Earth's gravitational shackles and entering space proper.
SO YOU'RE LISTENING to the hit parade on the radio and bustin' some moves on the rug-clad dance floor of your sitting room.
A quick glance at your reflection in the glass of your patio doors confirms the true extent of your awesomeness, so, overcome with exuberance, you perform a spectacular pirouette (or whatever the cool kids call them).
Unfortunately, the surprisingly high frictional coefficient between your 'Totes Toastie' socks and the rug causes it to gather up beneath your feet and, before you know it, you have a rug wrapped around your leg. Everything that was on the rug is likewise dragged violently inwards and half a sitting room's worth of remote controls, discarded socks and one confused cat is hurled towards you. Yup, sometimes spinning sucks.
But if you think that cat has it bad, spare a thought for anything unfortunate enough to be too close to a black hole when one of these cosmic Travoltas does the Twist. Because, instead of messing up a mere woven floor covering, a black hole drags the very fabric of the Universe along with and you can imagine what that does to anything unfortunate enough to be occupying that particular region of the spacetime rug.
If you are of a certain age, you'd be forgiven for thinking that the metre was some new-fangled thing imposed on us sometime during the 1970s. Well, this week, the humble metre celebrates its 220th birthday and the chances are that you really couldn't care less. But, whether you care or not, the story of how this mundane, yet elegant and efficient unit of measurement, which arguably helped to build the modern world, came to be is really quite remarkable.
THE CLOSING DECADES of the 18th century were, to say the very least, a little bit turbulent.
The Enlightenment was reaching its zenith, and the world was in the grip of revolution with millennia of political, social and philosophical doctrine being questioned and cast aside.
The American people were revolting against British rule; the French were revolting (no we won't end the sentence here) against the decadence of their monarchy and, after 400 years of power, the Ottoman Empire was crumbling faster than a digestive dropped in tea.

More planning goes into an average vacation, than for one's life in retirement. Yes, that's a pretty bold statement, however, it is unfortunately so. While pre-vacation planning encompasses thinking, budgeting and a lengthy list of executable actions, most people, besides contributing to their company's 401(k) program do very little real work towards success on what can be a lengthy segment of their life.
Think about it, one's work life might extend from early to mid-twenties to mid-sixties; around forty years. As our mortality increases, the time in retirement become increasingly longer and rife with challenges and the need for some of that planning. There's way more pleasure in buying those airline tickets and imagining yourself flying away to some exotic location than there is in trying to map out what is, from every aspect, a mine field of decisions about an uncertain future.
There seems to be very little logic in the energy put into R&R vs. one's post career years. But if you scrap away some of the indignation, you can see that there's joy and pleasure in idea of travel, rest, adventure and a respite from work. Retirement for many, on the other hand, is scary and far away into a future that is untouchable. It's a great unknown of what to do, how much it will cost and sometimes, where to even begin.

COLUMBUS ÔÇö It was almost over before it had barely begun.
Now it is over.
And the Waynesfield-Goshen Tigers girls 400-meter relay team is the fastest in the land.
The Tigers erased the memory of an almost disastrous district preliminary race that could have ended their tournament run with a dominant performance in the Division III state final Saturday at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium in Columbus.
W-GÔÇÖs foursome of senior Abbey Gray, junior Morgan Horn, senior Frankie James and junior Ivy Horn was virtually flawless.
ÔÇťOur handoffs were probably the best theyÔÇÖve ever been,ÔÇŁ Gray said.
Their time of 48.93 was almost a full second ahead of second-place Creston NorwayneÔÇÖs 49.81 and just two-tenths off of the Division III state-meet record. It was also a personal best for the team.
ÔÇťIt was a pretty convincing victory I think,ÔÇŁ W-G coach Jim Epperly said. ÔÇťWeÔÇÖre happy with that.ÔÇŁ
Two weeks earlier in the district meet at Spencerville High School, Gray and Morgan Horn almost collided on the first exchange of their preliminary race.
The team recovered to advance and win the district final. The next week they posted a regional meet record to enter the state meet as the favorite.
On Saturday, all three exchanges were smooth. Ivy Horn took the final exchange from James with a slight lead and exploded down the home stretch, leaving the field behind.
ÔÇťMy freshman year we actually dropped the baton at districts because of our handoff,ÔÇŁ Morgan Horn said. ÔÇťSo I was just really nervous. I didnÔÇÖt want that to happen. I struggled with not wanting to take off too fast. But we got it down.ÔÇŁ
Said Gray, ÔÇťWe worked on it a lot that past week or so. We worked on Morgan getting out faster. SheÔÇÖs a nervous handoff person. It went really well.ÔÇŁ
The Tigers finished fifth overall in the team standings with 29 team points. But W-G was just two points behind third-place Liberty-Benton (31).
ÔÇťI think we performed well,ÔÇŁ Epperly said. ÔÇťThis is the best-of-the-best level. ... We knew we would have to have a great day to be one of the top two teams. We had a very good day. Yesterday (Friday) we had our ups and downs.ÔÇŁ
In addition to gold in the relay, Ivy Horn took second in the 100 dash and third in the 200 dash.
Horn got an unexpected boost in her chances in both events when Gates Mills Gilmour AcademyÔÇÖs Candice Longino-Thomas, the prohibitive favorite in both events, pulled out after the preliminaries due to an injury.
ÔÇťYesterday, right after the 200 ÔÇö she was in Heat 1 and I was in Heat 2 ÔÇö I crossed the finish line and saw her under the tent crying," Horn said. "You hate to see an athlete like that go down.ÔÇŁ
Gray medaled in the long jump (sixth) and the 300 hurdles (seventh).

US officials understood the Israeli reliance on force to expand and control territory, which they criticized while recognizing Israel's military superiority as compared to that of surrounding Arab states. It was on the basis of such force that Israel altered the balance of power in the Middle East in 1948. And it was on the basis of such developments that Washington calculated that Israel could be useful in the protection of US regional interests.
Ten years ago, Aisha Mershani began a project to document the lives of everyday Palestinians non-violently resisting Israeli occupation. Since 2003, she have photographed and gathered testimonies from Palestinian communities that have resisted the building of the Wall. After six years away, she is returning to the West Bank in the summer of 2013 to complete this project. Thus far, Aisha has self-funded her work; she is now asking for your support with the completion of the last stage of this ten-year project.
IOA Editor: We highly recommend supporting Aisha's work.
In an interview on IDF Radio, Pundak confirmed that forces under his command razed Arab villages in 1948. "My conscience is at ease with that, because if we hadn't done so, then there would be no state by now. There would be a million more Arabs," he said.
In 1948, some 750,000 Palestinians were expelled from more than 400 villages as the new state of Israel was declared on a large part of their homeland – an event known to Palestinians as the nakba, or "catastrophe". The refugees – mostly descendants of those driven from their homes – now number around five million, according to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency.
Six mass grave sites dating back to the 1936 Palestinian uprising and the 1948 Nakba were discovered around the Jaffa cemetery, the al-Aqsa Foundation for Endowment and Heritage reported Wednesday, revealing hundreds of bodies of Palestinians killed by Zionist forces.
"The Nakba did not begin in 1948. Its origins lie over two centuries ago…." So begins this four-part Al-Jazeera series on the 'Nakba' (the 'catastrophe'), about the history of the Palestinian exodus that led to the first Arab-Israeli war in 1948 and the establishment of the state of Israel.
The number of Palestinians who remained in their towns and village in 1948 after the Nakba was estimated at 154,000. Their number is now estimated as 1.4 million on the 65rd anniversary of the Nakba. In 1948, 1.4 million Palestinians lived in 1,300 Palestinian towns and villages in historic Palestine. The Israelis controlled 774 towns and villages and destroyed 531 Palestinian towns and villages during the Nakba.
When the government tries to silence a history, a light is shed on the nation's biggest taboo. This is the story of those who fought to erase Palestine and created an Israeli landscape of denial.
[L]et's face it. It isn't that we don't know what happened in 1947-1948. It's that we've chosen not to see or hear anything that jars our thinking on the subject. Certain words and ideas have remained taboo, certain questions have been sidelined as suspect and certain histories – ours and theirs – have been excised, the better to educate us to numbness and indifference. The result is that we prefer to think of Israeli-Arab wars as instances of the much lamented 'clashes of civilization' that pit our civilized allies against the violence-prone 'other,' As long as our side wins, there is no need to look into the face of the 'enemy,' or to ask ourselves why and why again? Admittedly, doing so risks discovering that 'they' are like us, which is as disconcerting as learning that what the 'experts' have taught us about our history and theirs is often plain wrong, leaving us to discover that deception can be dangerous.
A new documentary by frequent IOA contributor Israeli-Canadian journalist Lia Tarachansky aims to decipher some of the anxiety that accompanies the Israeli debate over the events of 1948.
Upcoming documentary profiles Israeli journalist Lia Tarachansky's return to the settlement where she grew up, to uncover a buried history and a landscape of denial. The film tells the stories of four veterans of the 1948 war that erased from the Israeli landscape hundreds of Palestinian villages and connects their stories to the modern-day Palestinian dispossession through the occupation and settlements.
Our beloved Tel Aviv, whose reputation for enlightenment and openness is world renowned, is built in part on ruined Palestinian villages – and refuses to acknowledge it.
One can conclude from Grossman's article, probably contrary to his intent, that in theory things could have been different. In theory the occupation could have been sustained with the upholding of the law – that is, in an enlightened and democratic manner, without dumping an entire people by the side of the road. Furthermore, one can also conclude that if and when we annul the corrupting occupation we will be able to continue the enlightened existence of the small and just State of Israel of the pre-1967 era. [Not so.]
If anything can be said about the inhabitants of the many refugee camps in Jordan it is that they have shown remarkable resilience in the face of unspeakable injustice. The people at Gaza camp are warm and welcoming, albeit curious. Numbers haunt the life of every refugee; on one hand, there are passport numbers, national identification numbers, and social security numbers that are denied to them. On the other hand, you have the statistics that their lives have been reduced to: 24,000 refugees, 2,000 makeshift shelters, 50% unemployment, 0.75 square kilometers.
Every year the US allocates $250 million to UNRWA, which provides food as well as health, education and employment services to millions of Palestinians in Jordan, Lebanon, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. For years Congressional representatives have been trying to reduce U.S. contributions to the agency, on the grounds that UNRWA was born in sin and that its policies are anti-Israeli.
In fact, it is rarely useful to compare the Holocaust and the ordeal of the Palestinians; it does not help us understand the reality of either. Sixty-four years have elapsed since the Nakba, 64 years during which Palestinians have been subjected to further wars, expulsions, and dispossession. They have been denied political, economic, and human rights… This is not genocide, but what name is there for it?
Tuesday, 15 May 2012, is the 64th Anniversary of Palestinian Nakba Day. This date commemorates the end, on 15 May 1948, of the so-called "Mandate" over Palestine "granted" to Britain by the League of Nations (the UN's predecessor) following the end of World War I. The Mandate system was devised by the victorious powers, chiefly Britain and France, to give a veneer of legality to their post-war military occupation and rule over the former Middle Eastern Arab provinces of the defeated Ottoman Empire.
"When you grow up you will understand how injustice was brought upon your father and upon thousands of Palestinians whom the occupation has put in prisons and jail cells, shattering their lives and future for no reason other then their pursuit of freedom, dignity and independence. You will know that your father did not tolerate injustice and submission, and that he would never accept insult and compromise, and that he is going through a hunger strike to protest against the Jewish state that wants to turn us into humiliated slaves without any rights or patriotic dignity."
"My beloved Lamar keep your head up always and be proud of your father, and thank everyone who supported me, who supported the prisoners in their struggle, and don't be afraid for God is with us always, and God never lets down people who have faith and patience. We are righteous, and right will always prevail against injustice and wrong doers."
Safi Kadaan: "We're talking about a new idea, a new campus framework in which there will be a ceremony not just for Arab students, but for everyone."
Members of the left wing organization Zochrot were attempting to distribute flyers containing the names of Palestinian villages that were evacuated or destroyed in 1948, when they were held indoors by police for almost four hours.
IOA Editor: The Only Democracy in the Middle East in action…
The Simon Wiesenthal Center is planning to build a Museum of Tolerance on the Muslim Mamilla cemetery. This project is a grotesque attempt to erase the well-established history of a continuous Muslim presence in the city that dates back over a millennium… There is no justification for these desecrations. If they were occurring in any other place on earth, the outcry would be deafening. Unfortunately, the treatment of Mamilla is not an anomaly; Muslim and Christian sites of cultural, religious and historical significance continue to be systematically disrespected by Israeli authorities. The Protection of Holy Sites Law in Israel now covers 137 sites. Not one of these is Christian or Muslim.
Benny Morris: "Of course. Ben-Gurion was a transferist. He understood that there could be no Jewish state with a large and hostile Arab minority in its midst… There are circumstances in history that justify ethnic cleansing… A Jewish state would not have come into being without the uprooting of 700,000 Palestinians…There was no choice but to expel that population. It was necessary to cleanse the hinterland and cleanse the border areas and cleanse the main roads. It was necessary to cleanse the villages."
In late 2011, the self-appointed media watchdog CAMERA informed the Journal of Palestine Studies of an incorrect citation in an article by Ilan Pappé referring to a quotation by Israeli founding father David Ben-Gurion which supports the expulsion ("transfer") of Arabs from Palestine. Rashid Khalidi discusses the case, its implications and historical context.
We managed to delete Mount Hermon's original, Syrian name as if it had never existed. Precious few Israelis have ever heard the name, or are aware of the 200 towns and villages that were obliterated in the Golan Heights. Most Israelis, we might assume, aren't aware that they were ever there, since Israeli collective consciousness also erased the existence of their 120,000 residents – refugees that no one knows or cares about.
Rashid Khalidi: 'This book is the most comprehensive and penetrating analysis available of the catastrophe that befell Arab Palestine and its people in 1948, known as the nakba. It shows how the expulsion and physical obliteration of the material traces of a people was followed by what Masalha calls 'memoricide': the effacement of their history, their archives, and their place-names, and a denial that they had ever existed.'
The Road to Tantura is a gripping documentary film that follows a Los Angeles woman as she delves into the history of her family's past. In 1948, her family was ripped from their homeland of Palestine, forced into refugee camps in Syria, and years later landed as immigrants in Ann Arbor, Michigan. By telling the story of one woman's journey to her family's past, this documentary offers a microcosm of the collective Palestinian experience that has been kept buried along with those who perished in Tantura that fateful day in 1948.
IOA Editor: For over 50 years, Tantura has been one of Israel's most popular beaches; few Israeli-Jews are aware of its history.
The Jewish National Fund (JNF), that ownes 13% of Israeli lands, forbids the sale or lease of its lands to any but Jewish owners. Many are now joining a global campaign against this policy whose roots come from expropriated Palestinian Land. The Real News' Lia Tarachansky looks at the history of JNF land acquisition from the land taken from 1948 refugees in the village of Ma'alul, 1967 refugees on whose land Canada Park was built, and the Bedouins of Al Araqib on whose land the JNF is attempting to build the Ambassador's Forest.
IOA Editor: An outstanding report by Lia Tarachansky where she puts current events in their historic, political, institutional, and legal context: How the repeated destruction of the Beduin village of al-Araqib fits in the Palestinian history of the Nakba, post-1948 confiscation of Palestinian lands within Israel, and the destruction of the Latroun villages after the 1967 War — all with the full involvement of the Jewish National Fund (JNF), a tax-exempt organization in the US.
False Prophets of Peace refutes the long held view of the Israeli left as adhering to a humanistic, democratic and even socialist tradition, attributed to the historic Zionist Labor movement. Through a critical analysis of the prevailing discourse of Zionist intellectuals and activists on the Jewish-democratic state, it uncovers the Zionist left's central role in laying the foundation of the colonial settler state of Israel, in articulating its hegemonic ideology and in legitimizing, whether explicitly or implicitly, the apartheid treatment of Palestinians both inside Israel and in the 1967 occupied territories.
Ran Greenstein: How to fight the Israel-Apartheid analogy in four easy steps – a guide for useful Hasbara idiots
Start with fragmentation. When talking about Israel refer to a mythical state that existed between November 1966 and June 1967, the only period during which the majority of Palestinians living under Israeli control were NOT subject to military rule.
US Likudniks, who had remained relatively restrained on [book talks] until now, could not stand it any longer. They launched a massive attack against me in the form of a smear article … written by two Campus Watch vigilantes and first published on FrontPageMag… From there, the article was reproduced by countless websites and blogs belonging to the same ideological swarm, and distributed by them to their extensive email lists.
Gilbert Achcar is Professor of Development Studies and International Relations at the School of Oriental and African Studies of the University of London; his latest work is The Arabs and the Holocaust: The Arab-Israeli War of Narratives. Achcar discusses what he calls the "Nazification" of the Arabs, what implications this narrative has had on the past and present political situation in the Middle East, and some of the context from which anti-Semitism and Holocaust-denial has taken root in a segment of Arab society.
The US and Israel have both been intent on forestalling the appearance of the Palestinian Authority before the UN, in case it succeeded in winning support for its unilateral declaration of Palestinian independence. This is a reversal of history: in 1948, the US regarded the prospect of an Israeli declaration of independence as a threat to its interests in the region, and the State Department, Defence Department and CIA were worried about such an outcome.
Bedouins in the Negev continue to be targeted by Israeli efforts to displace them. The Israeli government has now approved a plan that would uproot 30,000 Palestinians and place them in "recognized villages."
Yasmin Dahr and Eilat Maoz put Israel's July 14 Movement in its proper historical, social, and political context – something the protest movement's loosely structured leadership has, so far, insisted on avoiding. Important analysis. (HEBREW)
What will the Palestinians do at the UN in September? The question appears to haunt Washington and Tel Aviv as they prepare to block Palestinian attempts to obtain UN recognition, as though the very idea of such action represents a form of political impudence that merits the harshest international rejection. Sober accounts by Palestinians of what they may expect from a trip to the UN have done little to allay the dark cloud of suspicion that is fostered in mainstream accounts.
A new report of UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is highly critical of Israel for its handling of incidents on the border with Lebanon on May 15 – Nakba Day. It concludes that the Israeli soldiers used disproportionate force against Lebanese demonstrators, which resulted in seven deaths.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo probably plays with more pressure heap upon his shoulders day in and day out, then any other quarterback in football. Troy Aikman is a Hall of Famer, a legend in Dallas for all his productivity and three Super Bowl wins, and a big Tony Romo fan. Aikman was on 105.3 The Fan, and said that it's frustrating to him, "that the average NFL fan doesn't realize how good a quarterback Tony Romo really is." "I'm a big fan of his and I've said it all along," Aikman said, via the Dallas Morning News. "He's a special player. Unfortunately, not enough people recognize that." "I'm a big fan of his and I've said it all along," Aikman said. "He's a special player. Unfortunately, not enough people recognize that."

TUESDAY, June 3, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Teen boys who recently started smoking are more likely to quit than teen girls. And, both boys and girls who are frightened by cigarette warning labels or play team sports are more likely to quit, new research shows.
The study included 620 boys and girls in Montreal, aged 12 and 13, who had recently started smoking at least occasionally. Just over 40 percent of the teens said their parents smoked, nearly 90 percent had friends who smoked and about 80 percent said they often saw their teachers or other school staff smoking.
Over the five-year study period, 40 percent of the teens quit smoking. Boys were 80 percent more likely to quit than girls, and older teens were 30 percent more likely to quit than younger ones, the investigators found.
Teens who said cigarette warning labels scared them were 44 percent more likely to quit, and those who played team sports were 40 percent more likely to quit, according to the study released June 3 in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.
Factors that reduced the likelihood that teens would quit smoking included family stress, weight concerns, being overweight, illicit drug use and cravings for cigarettes, the study authors noted.
"Overall, these results support that healthy family habits, which include nonsmoking as the norm as well as positive exchange and functioning, will help novice smokers discontinue smoking," study author Jennifer O'Loughlin, a professor in the department of social and preventive medicine at the University of Montreal, said in a journal news release.
"Parents who smoke should understand the effects of their smoking on their children, and families should work together or with professionals to identify and reduce sources of family stress. Parents should engage their children in sports and other healthy activities," she advised.
"It is imperative that we better understand the factors that promote smoking discontinuation in girls compared with boys, so that we can design gender-specific interventions," O'Loughlin noted in the news release.

DEAR CHERYL: In January, my wife bought a new iPhone. We downloaded an app that locates the phone if it gets lost. At the same time, she switched her workout location and began working out every night after work and on the weekends.
One night she mentioned that she might have a meeting after her gym class. I was home with the kids cooking dinner. I expected her home around 5:30. By 6, she still wasn't home, and she hadn't called to say if she was going to her meeting.
I thought I'd use one of the kids' phones to locate my wife's phone to see if she was at her meeting. The phone was nowhere near her gym, her work or her meeting. It was in a secluded parking lot.
After a month of monitoring her phone and other activities, I confronted her. She confessed that she had been sleeping with one of her co-workers since October 2011.
We're still together and going to therapy. She still sees this guy at work and at the gym. They still work out together. They don't text each other because his wife found out and monitors his phone. My wife says she still wants him.
I don't want to lose her because she's the love of my life. What should I do?
DEAR WLGTDWI: You call your wife the love of your life. What does that mean? She cheated on you. She may still be cheating. What is there to love?
You need to stand up for yourself. While you're trying to save your marriage, which I assume is the point of therapy, you must demand that your wife stop working out at the gym and — if at all possible — that she get a new job.
Unless she's willing to do these things, your marriage is over. You may stay together but the marriage is over. If she's willing to make a clean break with him, you have a chance. Marriages can survive an affair, but both parties have to be willing to work really, really hard.
Your wife may be using therapy as a stalling mechanism while she figures out what she wants. Don't put your future in her hands. You may be better off seeing a therapist by yourself right now. He or she may help you accept what might be inevitable.
DEAR CHERYL: I have a teenage granddaughter who's somewhat overweight. She has a pair of pants she wears often that have a large over-all print. She really looks bad in them, especially from the back. They make her look so much larger than she is. How do I tell her without hurting her feelings?
DEAR GRANNY: If you can afford it, tell your granddaughter you want to get her some back-to-school clothes and a wardrobe makeover. Ask her to bring some of her favorite things with her and take her to a store like the Gap or Old Navy at a time when it isn't busy. Ask one of the salesgirls — they're usually very well-dressed — to help you pick out some things. Ask the salesgirl for some advice on what is most flattering for your granddaughter.
Let's hope your granddaughter will take the expert's advice.
Got a problem? Send it to email@example.com.
