Traffic signal project moving forward slowly in Waterbury
WATERBURY -- A plan to modernize the city's antiquated traffic-control system is moving ahead -- at a crawl.
In August 2012, the city received a $3 million federal grant to synchronize traffic signals in the city's downtown. Originally, the city said the design would be finished between March 2014 and June 2014, and construction would occur from September 2014 to September 2015.

I slid on ice and knocked a curb going about 10 mph with my front right passenger tire, and the back left passenger tire (I spun). It knocked the car slightly out of alignment (steering wheel turns to the left) and there is a whirring vibration that I can feel in the back of my car at low speeds. I am going to take it in for the alignment problem, because the tire is wearing on the back right passenger side. Will the alignment fix the whirring problem or is that something else that happened when I slid? Thanks so much for the help!

The alignment will not likely fix any noises, but when they inspect the vehicle they may find the cause of the noise. Be careful out on those icy roads!

When people lose hope they will ever get another good night's sleep, their risk of suicide spikes, according to a new study.
Insomnia and nightmares, which are often confused and may go hand-in-hand, are known risk factors for suicide, according to Dr. W. Vaughn McCall, chair of the Medical College of Georgia at Georgia Regents University.
He notes the new study reaffirms that link and adds another element: Hopelessness about sleep independent of other types of hopelessness, such as those about personal relationships and careers.
"It turns out insomnia can lead to a very specific type of hopelessness, and hopelessness by itself is a powerful predictor of suicide," he said.
The likelihood of being suicidal at least doubles when insomnia is a symptom, McCall added.
"If you talk with depressed people, they really feel like they have failed at so many things. It goes something like, 'My marriage is a mess, I hate my job, I can't communicate with my kids, I can't even sleep.' There is a sense of failure and hopelessness that now runs from top to bottom, and this is one more thing," McCall said.
For the study, researchers assessed the mental state of 50 depressed patients between the ages of 20 and 80. More than half had attempted suicide and most were taking an antidepressant.
The testing enabled the researchers to filter out other suicide risks, such as depression itself, and hone in on the relationship between insomnia and suicide risk, with researchers asking specific questions about dysfunctional beliefs about sleep, such as: Do you think you will ever sleep again?
"It was this dysfunctional thinking — all these negative thoughts about sleep — that was the mediating factor that explained why insomnia was linked to suicide," said McCall, who specializes in depression and sleep disorders.
He said he's seen insomnia patients spiral downward with increasingly negative and unrealistic thoughts about not sleeping; thinking, for example, that their immune system is being irrevocably damaged.
McCall challenges such thoughts and asks other doctors to consider doing the same: To disagree, strongly stating there is no scientific evidence for the thoughts, but there is hope and help. "People have choices," he said.
Once insomnia has been diagnosed, some fairly rigid guidelines can help turn the exhausting and potentially deadly tide, he said. These include:
The study is published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine.

On January 20, 2008, CRY (Child Rights & You) will run the Mumbai Marathon to start a campaign for free and equal education for all children. Powered by the same belief, nearly 170 others from varied backgrounds are also running with CRY. This is the second consecutive year that CRY is part of the Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon.
CRY believes that education enables each child to grow and explore her potential to the fullest. CRY�s education campaign reiterates the Constitutional promise to children to provide equal, free education to all (Sabko Shiksha, Saman Shiksha).
CRY points out that the poor quality of government schools often forces parents to opt for private schooling. In other words, people are paying for what should come free of cost. In Mumbai, the BMC schools are supposed to provide free education and also 27 other articles, including books, bags, uniforms and even a midday meal, free to all schoolchildren.
The BMC budget for education just for Mumbai exceeds Rs 1000 crores per year. CRY puts across a valid question �Why are we not making government schools work?�
This campaign is part of a larger call to action across the Maharashtra and Gujarat. CRY is committed to mobilize citizens to demand equity and quality education for all children and thus it demands universalization of quality education.
CRY says �At the Mumbai Marathon, let every footfall count to make education free and equal for all children�

Hedge Funds' Best Picks Show the Way for 2012
BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- Hedge fund managers tend to outperform during stock-market rebounds when individual investors are playing it safe. After this year's slump, analysts are expecting a brighter 2012, and hedge funds are gearing up with riskier bets.
Hedge funds, which cater to wealthy investors by chasing higher returns for bigger fees, haven't been living up to high investor expectations this year. Hennessee Group, an adviser to hedge fund investors, said its own hedge fund index is down 3% this year through October, compared with a 0.4% dip on the S&P 500.
|John Paulson (Paulson & Co.)
"Renewed optimism about the U.S. economic recovery, Europe's ability to address its debt problems, and China's ability to avoid a hard landing resulted in a remarkable 'risk-on' phase," Charles Gradante, co-founder of Hennessee Group, said in an emailed statement. "It has been an extremely challenging investment environment. We have seen managers get whipsawed due to headline risks, especially related to the eurozone sovereign debt crisis."Though returns have been poor and redemptions have been piling up since July, performance is starting to pick up, and investors might find guidance in picking stocks by following where the smart money moved during the third quarter. Heavyweights in the hedge fund world are licking their wounds this year. John Paulson of Paulson & Co., whose haul of reportedly $5 billion last year was a record for a hedge fund manager, has seen his Advantage Plus fund drop 47% this year through September, according to several media reports that cite investors in the fund. Even Paulson's bet on gold has worked against him, with his gold fund reportedly down about 30% this year. There have been some signs of a turnaround for hedge fund managers like Paulson. Hennessee Group said its hedge fund index rose 2.5% in October, the best monthly gain this year thanks to a rebound in riskier assets. However, the broader-market index S&P 500 jumped almost 11%, the biggest jump in two decades. TrimTabs has more optimistic news for hedge funds in this riskier climate. Though popular perception may be to the contrary, hedge funds actually have beaten the performance on the S&P 500 over the previous six months, losing only 6.4% to the drop of more than 10% for the broader market. Although TrimTabs says its survey of hedge fund managers reveals they remain downbeat on U.S. equities, sentiment is improving. Bearishness on the S&P 500 decreased to 41% in October from 57% in September, the highest of the year. Meanwhile, bullishness rose to 35% from 16%, the lowest level of 2011. If the worst of 2011 is over for hedge funds, it may pay to look at how these managers have positioned their portfolios through recently released 13F filings. Hedge fund and investment managers who manage more than $100 million are required to disclose their equity holdings, options and convertible debt on a Form 13F filed to the Securities and Exchange Commission within 45 days of the end of a quarter. Funds aren't required to report short positions betting on declines, derivatives, bonds or currency bets. TheStreet pored over more than 40 third-quarter regulatory filings by some of the biggest hedge fund managers to examine where the smart money is moving. The most important trends for the quarter, broken down by sector, are highlighted on the following pages.

They were a MASH (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital) unit stationed three miles from the front. Incoming helicopters full of wounded brought the horrors of war to them daily and sometimes bullets flew right outside the operating room door. Occasional hilarity and constant hijinks were all that kept them sane.Loosely based on real-life MASH unit 8055, life at the 4077 revolved around the day-to-day routines of Captain "Hawkeye" Pierce, Captain "Trapper" McIntyre, Lieutenant Colonel Henry Blake, Major Margaret Houlihan, Major Franklin Burns and Corporal "Radar" O'Reilly. Through these characters, viewers traveled beyond the long hours and the horrors of the operating room to a place where friendships were forged, laughter was found and drinks were served.Specs: Audio: English & French: Mono (English without laugh track)Language: Dubbed: English, Spanish, & French / Subtitled: English & SpanishTheatrical Aspect Ratio: Full Screen: 1.33:1Bonus Features: Disk 1: M*A*S*H - The Pilot; To Market, To Market; Requiem For A Lightweight; Chief Surgeon Who?; The Moose; Yankee Doodle Doctor; Bananas; Crackers and Nuts; CowboyDisk 2: Henry, Please Come Home; I Hate A Mystery; Germ Warfare; Dear Dad; Edwina; Love Story; Tuttle; The RingbangerDisk 3: Sometimes You Hear The Bullet; Dear Dad...Again; The Longjohn Flap; The Army-Navy Game; Sticky Wicket; Major Fred C.

In addition, the show's writers were more experienced with the TV format and had more in-depth knowledge of the characters. By this time they could also gauge how much serious material the audience would accept mixed in with their comedy.But most importantly, between the second and third seasons Larry Gelbart and Gene Reynolds visited Korea, a trip that they say affected the stories in the third season.Specs:Audio: English, French, & Spanish: MonoLanguage: Dubbed: English, French, & Spanish / Subtitled: Spanish & EnglishTheatrical Aspect Ratio: Full Screen: 1.33:1Bonus Features: Disk 1: The General Flipped At Dawn; Rainbow Bridge; Officer Of The Day; Iron Guts Kelly; O.R.; Springtime; Check-Up; Life With FatherDisk 2: Alcoholics Unanimous; There's Nothing Like A Nurse; Adam's Rib; A Full Rich Day; Mad Dogs And Servicemen; Private Charles Lamb; Bombed; Bulletin BoardDisk 3: The Consultant; House Arrest; Aid Station; Love And Marriage; Big Mac; Payday; White Gold; Abyssinia, HenryM*A*S*H: Season FourAs the fourth season opens, Hawkeye returns from a 3-day R&R pass in Tokyo to find Trapper has been sent Stateside. Hawkeye races to the airport but arrives just as Trapper's plane takes off. Too late to tell his friend good-bye, he in nevertheless just in time to welcome Trapper's replacement, Captain B.J. Hunnicutt. Once Hawkeye gets over his anger and disappointment, he realizes B.J. is a worthy ally and takes the newcomer under his wing. "The first thing you learn here, B.J., is that insanity is no worse than the common cold. You've heard of a military post? Ours is a compost. Only the wounded are new. The tedium is relieved only by the boredom. So pitch in, muddle through, pip-pip. Never mind the reason why, ours is but to do and not let 'em die."Then Colonel Sherman T. Potter arrives to take over command of the 4077. Not only are Frank and Hot Lips outraged that Frank has lost his command so quickly, but Hawkeye and B.J. know that a "lifer" Army commander could spell big trouble for them. But then a single reminiscence from Potter puts the docs at ease: "Had a still on Guam in World War II. One night it blew up. That's how I got my Purple Heart."Specs: Audio: English, French, & Spanish: MonoLanguage: Dubbed: English, French, & Spanish / Subtitled: Spanish & EnglishTheatrical Aspect Ratio: Full Screen: 1.33:1Bonus Features: Disk 1: Welcome To Korea; Change Of Command; It Happened One Night; The Late Captain Pierce; Hey, Doc; The Bus; Dear Mildred; The KidsDisk 2: Quo Vadis, Captain Chandler?; Dear Peggy; Of Moose And Men; Soldier Of The Month; The Gun; Mail Call Again; The Price Of Tomato Juice; Dear MaDisk 3: Der Tag; Hawkeye; Some 38th Parallels; The Novocaine Mutiny; Smilin' Jack; The More I See You; Deluge; The InterviewM*A*S*H: Season FiveAs the fifth season opens, the Chinese are getting too close for comfort and the 4077 has been ordered to bug-out. Unfortunately, Hawkeye, B.J. and Margaret are in the middle of critical surgery and have to keep going even as the bombing starts. The rest of the 4077 find themselves in an equally dangerous situation upon discovering that the new location that HQ has chosen for them is actually in occupied territory. Luckily the Chinese are driven back and the 4077 get to bug back to their old location.But the real bomb, as far as Frank Burns is concerned, is when Margaret returns from a medical conference in Tokyo engaged to Lieutenant Colonel Donald Penobscott. "How'd Burns take it?" a concerned Colonel Potter asked. "Hard," Hawkeye replied. "He was clucking like a chicken last night. For nine straight hours." Potter shook his head. "He's heading for a Section Eight."

From his fur-trimmed coat to his shiny French horn, he almost makes B.J. and Hawkeye wish Frank were still there. Almost.But as Winchester slowly finds his place within the OR, things get back to normal – or as normal as they ever get. Radar goes off in search of the perfect tattoo. Black marketeers steal all the unit's penicillin. Hawkeye and B.J. refuse to shower unless Charles stops blowing his horn.

He jumps in a jeep and roars off to the talks, and although he makes it onto the speaker's floor, his rant does little to speed up the negotiations. His discontent isn't helped by the return of war correspondent Clete Roberts who has came back to the 4077 to tape another one of his television talks for the folks back home.Yet Hawkeye isn't the only one feeling the pressures of war. BJ nearly drives himself to exhaustion trying to help a poor Korean family, Father Mulcahy almost gets himself killed trying to get a promotion, Charles falls in love with a working girl at Rosie's Bar, and Margaret's divorce is finally made official.

The news quickly has Radar shipping stateside, followed by a period of adjustment as everyone tries to get used to a nervous and bumbling Klinger being in charge as company clerk. Things go from bad to worse as both Colonel Potter and Charles have to be quarantined with mumps. Then Hawkeye decides to stop drinking after receiving a bar bill so big that he's shocked into realizing, "I could have bought a used Studebaker for this!" Aside from incoming wounded, the 4077 is besieged by congressional aides, doctors demonstrating new techniques, inspecting colonels and a return visit from psychiatrist Sidney Freedman. Now if only everyone would just go away so the docs could get some sleep!M*A*S*H: Season NineAs the ninth season begins, Hawkeye's well-earned R&R goes awry after he's taken prisoner in order to save the life of an enemy soldier. Margaret also becomes a prisoner of sorts after a wounded Italian soldier proclaims his love for her and refuses to be shipped back to his unit. If only Margaret's visiting father, Colonel "Howitzer Al" Houlihan, would express his love so freely! Love, or the lack of it, continues to plague the rest of the 4077 as well. Klinger is devastated when he learns his ex-wife is remarrying, Hawkeye is equally despondent that he canÄ't get a date, and B.J. prepares to spend another wedding anniversary without his wife.For Colonel Potter, the biggest problem is that his high blood pressure will cause him to be reassigned from active duty to a "weenie job" sitting at a desk somewhere, while Charles becomes obsessed with death after he's nearly killed by an enemy sniper.

As the war drags on, it begins to take a toll on the docs and nurses who, day after day, fight to save the incoming wounded helicoptered in directly from the front lines. But as much as the gang of the 4077 cared for the wounded soldiers, they also cared about each other. And that camaraderie, coupled with a liberal dose of hijinks and hilarity, served to make their tour of duty in Korea an experience none of them would ever forget.Specs: Audio: English: Mono (Has Option of being viewed with or with out laugh track) / Spanish & French: MonoLanguage: Dubbed: French & Spanish / Subtitled: Spanish**The "Identity Crisis" episode on Disc 1 has no French audio, but has French subtitlesTheatrical Aspect Ratio: Full Screen: 1.33:1Bonus Features: Disk 1: That's Show Biz; Identity Crisis; Rumor at the Top; Give 'em Hell, Hawkeye; Wheelers and Dealers; Communication Breakdown; Snap JudgmentDisk 2: Snappier Judgment; Twas the Day after Christmas; Follies of the Living - Concerns of the Dead; The Birthday Girls; Blood and Guts; A Holy Mess; The Tooth Shall Set You FreeDisk 3: Pressure Points; Where There's a Will, There's a War; Promotion Commotion; Heroes; Sons and Bowlers; Picture This; That Darn KidM*A*S*H: Season ElevenAs the eleventh season begins, rumors are running rampant around camp.

This second rumor gets Margaret thinking after Charles mentions how a Los Angeles skyscraper had a time capsule built into its cornerstone. Although he thinks the idea is insane, Margaret decides to make a time capsule of her own to bury in camp. "We could put something in the ground to remind people we were here," she suggested. With Hawkeye's help, items from around camp were gathered up for the capsule: a chopper's broken fan belt, Radar's teddy bear, one of Henry Blake's fishing flies, a bottle of Charles's cognac and Father Mulcahy's boxing gloves.And finally, the gang of the 4077 hears the announcement they've been waiting for:"This is Robert Pierpoint speaking to you from nearby Panmunjom. It is one minute before ten p.m. We can still hear the sound of nearby artillery. At some point during the next few seconds, the guns should go silent, as the cease-fire officially goes into effect…There it is. That's the sound of peace."Specs: Audio: English & French: MonoLanguage: Dubbed: French / Subtitled: SpanishBonus Features: Disc 1: Hey, Look Me Over; Trick or Treatment; Foreign Affairs; The Joker is Wild; Who Knew?; Bombshells; Settling Debts; The Moon is Not BlueDisc 2: Run For the Money; U.N., the Night and the Music; Strange Bedfellows; Say No More; Friends and Enemies; Give and TakeDisc 3: Goodbye, Farewell and AmenM*A*S*H (The Movie)One of the world's most acclaimed comedies, MASH focuses on three Korean War Army surgeons brilliantly brought to life by Donald Sutherland, Tom Skerritt and Elliott Gould.

JewishIsrael's Counter-Missionary of the Month Award Goes to Missionary Cody Archer
Cody Archer, a missionary working for Revive Ministries, inadvertently outed his boss, Asher Intrator, as a missionary targeting religious Jews.
Archer sent JewishIsrael an email requesting that we remove the word "missionary" from one of our videos which features Intrater being interviewed by the International Director of ICEJ. JewishIsrael staff responded by asking Archer, " why the panic about the word "missionary"? We received an incredible and revealing response ...more
Jewish Business News Slams Evangelical Publication Israel Today for Deceiving Israelis
Kudos to Tibi Singer, columnist for Jewish Business News, for outing the messianic missionary publication Israel Today and their toxic agenda. Singer's article, "Come To Israel For The Most Virulent, Anti-Rabbinic Videos, In Hebrew", denounces Israel Today (of no affiliation to Israeli newspaper Yisrael Hayom) for promoting "what amounts to an aggressive messianic endeavor, complete with angry attacks on the rabbinic tradition, lies about the content and purpose of Talmudic passages, and open invitations for Jews to convert to Christianity—all of it in fluent, eloquent Hebrew, delivered by two clean cut, bona fide Israeli salesmen."…more
JewishIsrael Responds to Pastor Robert Stearns' Article in the Jerusalem Post
Evangelical Pastor Robert Stearns has a lengthy opinion piece in today's Jerusalem Post (December 9, 2014) which attributes Jewish skepticism toward Evangelicals to Jewish fears of proselytizing and historic anti-Semitism. The reality is far more complex and Stearns' missionary agenda was evident at recent events in Jerusalem. JewishIsrael has responded with a letter to the editor.
Community Alert: Christian Evangelicals Offering Shabbat Retreat for Har Nof Orphans

When in Jerusalem, Israel's Evangelical Pilgrims Feast, Prey and "Love"
In this Post-Feast report, which includes an extensive and disturbing video sampling, JewishIsrael covers some of the "Christian Zionist" and "interfaith" events and activities that took place in Israel over the recent Jewish holidays.
JewishIsrael feels that the Chief Rabbinate, which issued a ban on Jewish participation in an ICEJ sponsored prayer vigil last month, was more than justified in its concerns. We ask that our readers please take the time to view the related video clips and excerpts...more
Israel's Chief Rabbis Reaffirm Halacha Prohibiting Interfaith Worship
With throngs of evangelical pilgrims and ministries assembling in Jerusalem to celebrate various Christianized versions of the Jewish Feast of the Tabernacles (Sukkot), Israel's Chief Rabbinate has issued a statement prohibiting Jews from participating in an ICEJ prayer vigil scheduled to take place at the Southern Wall of Har Habayit.
The rabbis and political leaders in the Jewish state are faced with a formidable challenge. Will they be able to take a wise and firm stand on behalf of the Torah, and uphold the integrity – the sanctity - of Eretz Yisrael without totally alienating visitors of other faiths?...more
Christian Missionary Joel Rosenberg and Family Make Aliyah
Joel Rosenberg, a renowned "end-times" author and missionary, who promotes proselytizing the Jewish people and dedicates resources to targeting Israelis for conversion, has managed to make Aliyah with his family
Rosenberg was able to immigrate to Israel as a practicing Christian missionary via a loophole in Israel's Law of Return.
Just five months ago JewishIsrael reported that the Chief Rabbi of Efrat, Shlomo Riskin, granted legitimacy to Rosenberg by sharing the podium with him at New York's West Side Lincoln Square Synagogue in an interfaith theological exchange sponsored by Ohr Torah Stone's Center for Jewish-Christian Understanding and Cooperation...more
JewishIsrael Gives Presentation at "Cancelled" Counter-Missionary Event
After the Eshel Hashomron Hotel in Ariel unexpectedly cancelled a counter-missionary conference scheduled to take place on September 10th 2014, the organizers of the event did their best to recoup and held the conference in Kiryat Netafim.
Despite the widely publicized cancellation and the controversy that ensued, a diverse and thoughtful audience of rabbis, professors, residents and students attended at the alternative venue...more
UPDATE: The JI presentation can now be viewed on YOUTUBE (in Hebrew)
Tell It to Jackie Mason: Hamas is No Laughing Matter for Some Liberal Jewish Comediennes
There is something significant in the air that has not been detected by conservative Jewish leaders. It seems that the relentless rocket attacks and abominable acts by Hamas have set off a surprising firestorm of protest and activity on behalf of Israel by a number of notable liberal Jews - from Hollywood no less. And a number of those personalities are at the zenith of their careers and have gone out on a limb in voicing support for the Jewish State at this particular time.
It will be a missed opportunity if diehard Jewish conservatives do not take note of a possible awakening, and take time out from the tea party and their twisted affair with evangelicals in order to embrace a moment of commonality with their own people...more
Financially Transparent Deception and Honorable Deceit
Michael Decker is an Israeli Evangelical attorney. Decker and his partner Calev Myers of the Jerusalem Institute of Justice (JIJ) are in the forefront of the battle for messianic aliyah and "Judeo-Christian" rights in Israel. They are among those Evangelicals determined to change the Jewish nature of the State of Israel and the very definition of Judaism. In the name of "civil rights, freedom of religion, and social justice" they regularly offer pro bono advice to those hoping to advance a messianic Christian and missionary agenda in Israel. Most recently Michael Decker provided information in the messianic publication "Israel Today" which paves the road for those missionaries who strive to establish legal non-profit proselytizing entities in the Jewish state…more
Messianic Madness: A New Twist on Anti-Semitism a la Asher Intrater
Certain evangelizing organizations have recently taken their grotesque game of distortion and deception to new depths as they toy with and attempt to commandeer the sensitive topic of anti-Semitism. But missionary Asher Intrater of Revive Ministries may have just broken the absurd-o-meter with a recently published article in Charisma Magazine, "What is the Root of anti-Semitism?".It goes without saying that Intrater will not win any converts or friends with his outrageous theological acrobatics and revisionism. ...more
Mike Huckabee: Respect and Suspect
For those Israeli activists, politicians and rabbis who were busy cozying up to Mike Huckabee in a no holds barred embrace, respect yet beware of friendly pastors and presidential hopefuls who may love Israel to death.
While JewishIsrael welcomes the friendship, warmth, and moral and political support from Mr. Huckabee, this report documents some good reasons why the order of the day should remain "respect and suspect"…more
Q: Does the Vatican Have a Political Agenda for Israel? A: Is the Pope Catholic?!
In this comprehensive wrap-up of the Pope's three-day pilgrimage to the "Holy Land", JewishIsrael explores the Vatican's politically and theologically loaded agenda for Israel and compares the grim and alarming assessments of Jewish leaders and columnists with the heady predictions of those involved in interfaith ventures with the Catholic church. Included is an update on the Vatican's claims of rights to, and historic ownership of, the Upper Room (Cenacle) above the Tomb of King David…more
Is the End Near…For Evangelical Support? Old and New Voices Weigh In
In a spate of recent articles appearing in major Jewish, Christian and mainstream publications, there appears to be a consensus acknowledging a significant weakening of evangelical support for Israel. Christian Zionist leaders are writing about a new and disturbing anti-Israel trend among evangelicals, while Jewish writers across the political and religious divide are warning about the dangers of faith-based alliances with zealous Christians. Is it time for Jewish leadership to switch strategies?...more
OurCrowd Is Messing With the Wrong Crowd at Jerusalem Passover Breakfast
OurCrowd, Jon Medved's venture capital platform encouraging investment in Israel, is hosting a Passover Breakfast at the Waldorf Astoria in Jerusalem. Israeli Attorney Calev Myers is scheduled as the guest speaker. Jon Medved may be unaware that Myers is a messianic Christian leader and an active advocate for messianic Christian rights in Israel.
It is important that Jewish investors and leaders carefully consider the costs involved in giving a messianic leader and activist such as Myers legitimacy, knowing that he has an agenda to establish a serious Christian foothold in Israel and is determined to change the nature of Judaism and the Jewish state...more
Rabbi Riskin and Ohr Torah Stone Host Missionary Joel Rosenberg at New York's Lincoln Square Synagogue with Shocking Consequences
Chief Rabbi of Efrat, Shlomo Riskin, recently shared the podium at New York's West Side Lincoln Square Synagogue with Christian missionary Joel Rosenberg in an interfaith theological exchange sponsored by Ohr Torah Stone's Center for Jewish-Christian Understanding and Cooperation (CJCUC).
The event was a coup for Rosenberg who openly and enthusiastically supports the proselytizing of Jews.
Even more disturbing is the enormous promotional boost Rabbi Riskin has given to major missionary organizations such as Chosen People Ministries (CPM), which closely rivals Jews for Jesus in the race to convert Jewish souls...more
Community Alert :Israeli Grassroots Organizations and Leaders Collaborating with Missionaries Targeting Jews. Focus: Larry Huch and Daystar TV
In recent months, JewishIsrael has met with a number of Jewish community leaders in Israel in an attempt to prevent these leaders' further collaboration with active missionaries who are operating in the Jewish state. To their credit, a number of these leaders have cut ties with such problematic missionary entities. Yet others have chosen to disregard JewishIsrael's concerns...more
Questions Continue to Loom Over Mount Zion as Pope Prepares to Visit Israel
The Pope is coming to town and an historic agreement between Israel and the Vatican seems imminent. Reports and rumors are rife concerning the status of a Catholic shrine (the Cenacle) which sits directly above the traditional Tomb of King David. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's Office (PMO) released a statement affirming that Israel will not, despite earlier reports, give away Mount Zion -- including King David's tomb -- to the Vatican.
JewishIsrael hopes that the government denials of relinquishing land and control do not amount to red herrings, as there remain unanswered questions regarding numerous reports that the Franciscans will be granted "administrative control" of the Cenacle including the rights to hold regular Catholic Mass above the Tomb of King David...more
JewishIsrael Reports on the Shomron Advocacy Conference: Attracting or Alienating Jewish Support?
Two months ago in JewishIsrael's report, Evangelists, Politics and Shomron PR – The Pew of It All, we outlined a number of concerns regarding the November 2013 Shomron Regional Council's Israel advocacy conference in New York.
Representatives from JewishIsrael attended the conference and this report is based on their observations...more
Tourism Minister Uzi Landau Denies Having Endorsed Jesus Statue for Nazareth's Mount Precipice
This is a continuing update to JewishIsrael's report of December 22nd, "Cast a Giant Jesus over Israel". JewishIsrael's Rabbinic Director Rabbi Dr. Sholom Gold met with Tourism Minister Uzi Landau. At the meeting Landau was emphatic in his denial of having ever endorsed such a project. Landau personally told Rabbi Gold that such a project "will never happen". MK Moshe Feilgin also contacted JewishIsrael after speaking with Landau…more
Café Forte and the Missionary Kashrut Controversy see UPDATE
In addition to its offices and numerous shops, Mercaz Clal on Jerusalem's Jaffa Street serves as a sort of "messianic central" with a very active, top to bottom Christian missionary presence under the auspices of King Of Kings Community (KKCJ). But the location recently became somewhat like "comedy central" when a member of the staff of the KKCJ affiliated Café Forte, allegedly tried to missionize the restaurant's kashrut supervisor. This activity reportedly resulted in the withdrawal of the Rabbinate's kashrut certification from the premises.
Café Forte may be a new venture but new testaments and proselytizing over coffee at the Clal Center are an old story. JewishIsrael has an update that takes some very intriguing twists and turns...more
George Bush Joins the Lineup of Illustrious Christian "Friends of Israel" Who Support Efforts to Convert Jews
Former President George W. Bush was the featured keynote speaker at this year's Messianic Jewish Bible Institute (MJBI) Banquet in Dallas. That organization, headed by "Rabbi"/Pastor Jonathan Bernis, clearly proclaims their vision and mission to convert Jews to Christianity.
While the Bush appearance at the 2013 MJBI Banquet made a lot of waves, what is not widely known is that in recent years some of Israel's "best friends" have been the stars at these very same annual MJBI banquets...more
Evangelists, Politics and Shomron PR – The Pew of It All
The Shomron Regional Council's Israel Advocacy Conference and Wine Tasting Reception will take place in New York on November 17th. Everybody knows that Israel is in need of good hasbara. JewishIsrael understands that nobody needs or deserves it more than the farmers and residents living in Yehuda and Shomron. BUT the evangelical personalities featured on the flyers and in PR reports, and their agendas, raise serious concerns.
JewishIsrael outlines some of the pitfalls and offers some suggestions…more
JewishIsrael Responds to Rav Eliezer Melamed's View of the Christian Role in Prophecy (Part 1)
In part one of JewishIsrael's rebuttal to Rabbi Eliezer Melamed's article,"Christians Fulfilling the Prophecy of Isaiah", we challenge his perception of Christian love for "God's Chosen People".
Indicative of the misreading of the situation was Rabbi Melamed's and the Shomron Regional Council's hosting and promoting of a Mega-Church leader who teaches Replacement Theology to millions of evangelical followers (it becomes downright embarrassing).
As this full report unfolds, it will draw attention to practical, spiritual and ethical problems, as well as to a lack of appropriate caution being exercised among those who are advising Rabbi Melamed on Jewish-Christian relations. Part 2 of this report will challenge Rabbi Melamed's view of Tommy Waller and Hayovel Ministries, and will expose Hayovel's past and present missionary agenda...more
Director of Rabbi Riskin's Interfaith Center Appeals for Funding to Build Church in Jerusalem
David Nekrutman, executive director of Rabbi Shlomo Riskin's Center for Christian-Jewish Understanding and Cooperation (CJCUC), located in Efrat, has made an urgent appeal for funding to establish a church in Jerusalem.
The obvious question which comes to mind to Torah observant Jews is why in the world would an organization founded and directed by the Chief Rabbi of Efrat and staffed by Orthodox Jews enter into the church-building business?...more
Journalist Judy Lash Balint Cuts Through the Fluff on Evangelist Mike Evans
When evangelist Mike Evans' Jerusalem Prayer Team Weekly Update proclaimed, "Bomb Shelter at Righteous Gentile Heritage Center Gets National Recognition", he surely didn't expect journalist Judy Lash Balint's account of the grand opening of the shelter, which was published in the Times of Israel, under the headline "Christian love: Buying their way into Jerusalem". In addition to an accurate account, and photos of the event, Balint did the unexpected – she penned the truth about missionary Mike Evans...more
A JewishIsrael Statement of Concern: Regarding Rav Melamed's Position in Support of Messianic Christian Volunteers
On Thursday, October 10th, 2013, JewishIsrael board members met in Har Bracha with a representative, whom Rabbi Melamed assigned the task of meeting with JewishIsrael and listening to what we had to say. The meeting lasted for over an hour, during which time JewishIsrael gave a presentation of what we viewed as the problems caused by the deployment of Hayovel Ministries' volunteers in Israel...more
"Jumping the Geula Gun" - a Response by Rabbi Sholom Gold to Rabbi Eliezer Melamed
JewishIsrael's Rabbinic Director, Rabbi Sholom Gold, responds to Rabbi Eliezer Melamed's article, "Christians Fulfilling the Prophecy of Isaiah":
"It is crucial at this time that such rabbis stop hosting and promoting those messianic driven Christian ministries and individuals who are determined to destroy the theological boundaries between Judaism and Christianity. The rabbis involved are accomplishing nothing less than contributing to, inspiring, and establishing a first century type Christian Restoration cult in Eretz Yisrael."..more
Shomron Leaders Court Christian Missionaries Who Target Jews for Conversion
Official fundraising bodies for the Shomron Regional Council, such as Shuva Israel, as well as private charitable endeavors, like the Shiloh Children's Fund, regularly solicit and encourage some of the very same evangelical organizations which are actively engaged in missionary activities in Israel and involved in efforts to proselytize Israel's most vulnerable sectors.
Under the circumstances, "shmad" would not be an incorrect term to use for what is being allowed to occur in Israel. It is most tragic that Torah observant leadership in Israel has unabashedly chosen to partner with and embrace those who are determined to draw Jews away from their faith…more
U.S. Christian leader "rabbi" Jamie Cowen establishes messianic law firm in Israel
Infamous U.S. Christian leader "rabbi "Jamie Cowen, who managed to make aliyah, has changed his name to Cohen and established the messianic law firm Cohen, Pex and Brosh. The firm is the latest of a growing number of legal organizations meeting the demands of evangelizing Christians who are looking to establish a foothold in the Jewish state. JewishIsrael contacted professionals working in the counter-missionary field who are familiar with Jamie Cowen and his activities. We received a concerned and immediate response. On the eve of Tisha b'Av 5773, Cowen's messianic deception and ability to breach Israel's gates as a "friend and lover" should jar the Jewish soul…more
The Religious Freedom Follies: State Department levels accusations at Israel
The U.S. State Department has released its annual International Religious Freedom Report. The Jewish state fell short of the standards that have been set by America, an overwhelmingly Christian nation. Israel didn't make the grade when it came to accepting "messianic Jews", welcoming missionaries and embracing proselytizing.
According to the report, the population of "Messianic Jews" in Israel has apparently taken a quantum leap over the past three years – growing from 10,000 adherents in 2009 to 20,000 in 2012. JewishIsrael reviews this State Department report and takes a look at those intriguing demographics...more
MISSIONARY ALERT: Chosen People Ministries targets Israelis for conversion (Part1)
Chosen People Ministries (CPM) is a large, international Christian missionary organization whose stated purpose is to evangelize Jews. CPM has a growing network of missionary centers in Israel and currently runs evangelistic activities in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Ariel, Netanya and Sderot. In recent years CPM's missionary teams have been reaching out to very young Jewish children in Israeli orphanages - taking them to messianic venues and attempting to establish long-term relationships with them. more…
The Day Jimmy Carter Saved the Jews from Mike Evans
Jewishisrael is no friend of Jimmy Carter. Yet in the aftermath of this month's brouhaha over the incongruous decision by the editors of Cardoza Law School's Journal of Conflict Resolution to honor the former president, JewishIsrael felt it timely to recount an episode also plagued with absurdity which still has serious repercussions for both Israeli and Diaspora Jewry.
In 1978, President Jimmy Carter, under pressure from the American Jewish community, intervened to save countless numbers of Jewish youth from Christian missionary Mike Evans, who was effectively working to "save" [sic] as many young Jewish souls as possible.
This report is no parody, but it is a terrible paradox, as both Evans and Carter have caused irreparable damage to Am Yisrael, but now find themselves being acclaimed by leading American Jewish and Israeli institutions. How the Jewish community got to this absurd juncture is worth exploration…more
Reflections on Michael Freund's article on Christians and Repentance
"When Christians Repent", is an article by Michael Freund, currently featured on Aish HaTorah's website. The article also appeared in the Jerusalem Post. With all due respect to Mr. Freund and the extraordinary work that he does, Jewishisrael has repeatedly taken issue with his unreserved approach to embracing evangelical Christians. We again feel Mr. Freund has missed the mark, as it is neither anti -Semitism, replacement theology, or missionary activity which is the primary reason for Jews maintaining a respectful and necessary distance from zealous Christians. JewishIsrael takes a profound look at the issue …more
Eckstein's IFCJ continues to be a source of controversy for Jewish Charities : focus on Netanya
Conflicting reports have appeared in the Jewish Press as to whether or not Netanya's largest charity, Kupat Tzedaka Merkazit, has rejected a 100,000 shekel donation from Yechiel Eckstein's organization, IFCJ (Keren L'Yedidut -The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews). Jewishisrael investigated to get the real the story. In addition, we explore why Eckstein's approach to fundraising and his methods continue to cause discomfort among Jews across the religious and political spectrum.
And yes, it seems rabbis and community leaders in Netanya have good reason to be suspect of Christian generosity….more
Rabbinic Committee Formulates Policy Regarding the Acceptance of Assistance from Christian Sources
A document of principles regarding the acceptance of monetary and manpower assistance from Christian organizations or individuals has been formulated by the Committee of Binyamin Region Rabbis. The halachic document which can be read here in Hebrew should be reviewed by any Jew in Israel who is involved in any way with Christian sources. It is very thorough, clear, and addresses many of the concerns which JewishIsrael has brought to the attention of the public over the years. The document enjoys the endorsement of an impressive list of prominent rabbinic leaders in Israel…more

Come into a world that's been here long before you. Overexposed and unemotional, Cavidad unravels the complexities of love, fear, and attraction. Lose yourself in the movement with fluorescent light sculptures in a cold environment that reflects the people in it. A dance experience unlike any other.
Enza DePalma, originally from Chicago, has been performing and producing original choreography for the last eight years. She received a BFA in Modern Dance from the University of The Arts. Upon graduating Enza received the Pennsylvania Ballet Award for Choreography and was commissioned to create an original work for the second company's 2012 season. Enza has created works for PA Ballet's "Shut Up and Dance" 2012 and 2013, presented by the dancers of PA Ballet and Manna at the Forrest Theater.
E|N|Z|A is the contemporary dance company of Enza DePalma based in New York City. It is E|N|Z|A's artistic mission to present work that showcases the intricacies and possibilities of a dancer. The work shines light into the intimate, more personal experiences of life, giving the audience a moment to connect with. Entangled gestures and fluid motions tell a story and evoke emotion. It is the company's objective to make dance a more sustainable art form, by always reinventing and investigating collaboration within the art world and with other artists.
CAVIDAD is a world that's been here long before you; a place that is untouched and unexplored. It exists on it's own whether you're here or not, and will continue to be this way, unchanged and unaffected for all time. Overexposed and unemotional, CAVIDAD unravels the complexities of love, fear and attraction with entangled gestures and physical partner work. Strangers to this unfamiliar setting enter and navigate the new space. Dancing and moving with the beings that already exist there. Can these new comers be welcomed into CAVIDAD or will their presence be too much for the local inhabitants.
Lose yourself in the movement with fluorescent light walls built by fellow UArts alum Brittany Papale. These moving light walls manipulate the space; combined with the dance they create a stark, cold environment that reflects the people in it. The sculptures are a collaborative element between two young artists. Enter an environment you've never seen before and have a dance experience unlike any other.

5 More Stocks to 'Like' When Facebook Goes Public
2. American Tower
As mobile usage for Facebook grows at rapid speeds, mobile networks strain, which benefits companies that own and lease wireless infrastructure towers, such as
American Tower (AMT).American Tower recently raised tower revenue guidance following first-quarter earnings, and converted into a real estate investment trust (REIT) to become more shareholder-friendly. "We believe AMT has both the ability and desire to grow its dividend in terms of absolute amount per share (growth in the business) as well as percent AFFO (adjusted funds from operations) payout. The company believes its long-term AFFO growth rate is double digits and dividend growth should actually exceed AFFO growth," wrote Raymond James analyst Ric Prentiss in his research report following the earnings release. He rates American Tower "outperform" with a $71 price target. Shares of American Tower have gained 12.9% this year.

Introduction Patriot being in the memory game for some time always has some tricks up its sleeve so to see them join the "Low profile" game is really cool. Now to clarify obviously these are not the low profile spec in terms of PCB or sub 18mm sticks, these are simply low profile heatspreaders compared to the standard version viper series. This low profile cooler design does shave 11mm off the total height giving over 25% smaller module which should mean good things for those running larger air coolers as we all know what happens when 2 pieces of matter attempt to occupy the same space. Just like the Black Mamba kit I looked at recently these sticks are MFR modules as well so i will be putting this on my Haswell based rig to see exactly how far it can go. Being that its a 4 stick high density ... Read More »

this book is very realistic .... as sula is snooping around and having sex with nels husband the society sula lives in begins to turn against her ... what many people didnt understand is that sula cared for her child and even spent long nights with plum
and the only thing that people didnt like was the fact that she was a prostitute...(kinda) at the end of the story nel cries and she realises how much she misses her child-hood friend SULA
Wrong book given. NYPL gave me "Interpretations of Toni Morrison's Sula which I now have to return to library and order Sula AGAIN.
I find it difficult to feel sympathetic for these characters except for Nel. The violence they exhibit, their remorseless deceptions, their cruelty to others and themselves are unexcusable whatever the circumstances and seem unnatural in any (civilized?) society. The style though is beautiful, lyric at points as in the description of the Bottom and its gentrification.
Oprah's book club. I don't know why people like this. I think Sula is a sociopath.

Wear a skirt: You can do it without flashing people. A-line or wider styles work best. Equip your bike with a skirt guard or fashion a garter out of a headband and safety pin. Skirt weights keep hems in check.
Wear heels: Pedaling in heels is easier than walking in them. Just make sure they fit properly.
Suit up: Invest in a pannier bag made to carry a suit without wrinkling it.
Stay dry: Invest in fenders if you commute year-round.
Safety first: Always wear a helmet (hopefully a stylish one), plus reflective tape and lights.
Don't sweat: Racing around like you're in the Tour de France will only make you perspire. Slow down and savor the views.

The Queen of Hill Stations!
- Submitted by: Carol Nettar
- Submission Date: 02nd May 2008
My wife and I got the opportunity to visit the Queen of Hill Stations, Darjeeling, The Land of the Thunderbolt, in 2006. We had been looking forward for a good, relaxing break and Darjeeling turned out to be our best vacation till date!!! I will share some of our experiences with all of you.
We had gone to Bhutan in December 2005, celebrated the new year there and then traveled to Kalimpong and Darjeeling in January 2006. Kalimpong is a small town before Darjeeling. Kalimpong is good for relaxing and nothing else. Not much sight seeing there.
We traveled to Darjeeling by taxi from Kalimpong. The view on the way was amazing. There were so many tea estates on the way. The narrow road leading to Darjeeling is very dangerous. There are lots of hairpin bends, blind curves, etc. Make sure you call an experienced driver for the trip.
We saw the mighty and majestic Himalayas again. We have seen the Himalayas in Bhutan and in Himachal, during our honeymoon in Shimla and Manali. The view of the Himalayas takes my breath away each and every time. The sheer beauty and grandeur of the mighty Himalayas makes me feel so nostalgic every time I see it! And I thank God for giving me the wonderful opportunity to be closer to him (height wise!!!!)
It was my dream to travel by toy train to Darjeeling, but we were so tired after the bone-jarring trip from Bhutan, that we decided to go by road, as it was much faster. The train travel takes a lot of time and we had to take the road way. The train tracks and the road run close to each other. School children can be found taking joy rides on the train. They jump on and off the train with so much expertise. The train chugs along through markets and houses at just about 10 km per hour. Vehicles on the road stop for the train to cross the road at many points.
We came across Ghum just before reaching Darjeeling. It is the highest railway station in India at an altitude of over 7000 ft. The towns major attraction is the Sampten Choling Monastery. It has a 15 ft statue of Buddha. The famous Batasia Loop is also in Ghoom. There is a war memorial in Batasia Loop in honor of our soliders, who have laid down their lives. The view of the memorial is wonderful, with the mighty Himalayas acting as the perfect background.
We reached Darjeeling by evening and immediately checked into a good hotel. All types of accommodation are available near the Mall road. Darjeeling is a tourists and trekkers dream destination. There are so many ways to explore Darjeeling, but the best and the most effective way, is by foot. We spent the entire evening exploring the Mall road and the city. The Mall road is very clean and tidy. We did a lot of shopping there. I bought my first Khukri from the Mall and it was my constant companion from then on. Khukri is the traditional weapon of the Goorkhas and it is extremely sharp and effective for self defense. We had our dinner from the Shangrila restaurant in the Mall. The temperature was freezing in the evening.
We visited the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute, The Everest Museum and The Padmaja Naidu Zoo the next day. They are situated in the same compound. Many courses of varying duration are conducted for aspiring mountaineers in the Mountaineering institute by experts and the Indian army also participates in their training. The mountaineering equipments used by Tenzing and Hillary can be seen in the Everest Museum. This museum is a Must-see for all. There is so much to see and learn there.
We saw the Red Panda, The Snow Leopard, found only in Ladakh and the Tibetan Snow Wolves and the Siberian Tiger for the first time in our lives. We were informed by our guide that this is only place in the world, where Snow Leopards and Tibetan Wolves were bred in artificial environment. It was really a wonderful experience seeing these beautiful creations of God. I still cannot forget the Himalayan Black Bear and the Golden Pheasant. They were so very beautiful.
We arranged a cab for us to visit Tiger Hill the next day. It is one of the most famous tourist spots in Darjeeling. We left our hotel by 4.30 am to see the sun rise in Tiger Hill. The temperature was below freezing and we were packed from head to toe in warm clothes and jackets.
As the first rays of the sun crept through the Himalayas, at the crack of dawn, we saw Mount Kanchenjunga and we were extremely lucky to see Mount Everest. We were told that there were clouds covering the peak for the past 4 days and the peaks were not visible.
Later that day we visited the Japanese Buddhist temple. It is a wonderful work of architecture. The towering Buddha Pagoda is awesome. The temple is covered by lots of trees on all sides and the early morning sunrays falling on the temple, through the trees was an amazing sight.
We then visited St. Josephs School, where the Shah Rukh Khan starrer Main Hoon Na was shot. The school was very beautiful and if I had a chance, I would definitely join St. Josephs to do my schooling again!!! The church in the school premises is very beautiful and the Himalayas act as the background for the church.
We also visited the Ganga Maiyya Park, Happy Valley Tea Garden and the Rock Garden. The famous Darjeeling Tea can be bought here. The prices are high, but the tea is superb. Darjeeling tea is much stronger than any other tea and is famous the world over. Makaibari tea produced in Kurseong holds the world record for the costliest tea @ Rs. 22,000/- per kg. I have come across articles stating that Darjeeling Tea was sold for Rs. 50,000 per Kg.
The local community in Darjeeling is a mix of Goorkhas, Tibetans, Sikkimese, Anglo Indians, Chinese, Biharis, etc. Nepali is the dominant language, though Hindi, English and Bengali are also widely spoken and understood.
We spent four days in Darjeeling, trekking and exploring different places. It has been one of the most wonderful holidays of my life.

"This is a modification from Sexymommalucas's Yummy Cinnamon Rolls for the Bread Machine, which I wanted to modify to reduce the fat and use whole wheat flour. Her recipe sounded so good that I had to try it! :)"
Serving Size: 1 (57 g)
Servings Per Recipe: 16
"I made this dough last night & the only change I made was to add 4t of vital wheat gluten. I used a different filling & made my own glaze, but this dough was GREAT! It was easy to work with and rose beautifully! I ended up with 16 rolls, but they rose so much that they ran out of room in the pan & popped up in the middle, so next time I think I'll divide the dough in half and then make 10 rolls from each half. These are NOT your Cinnabon rolls....the dough definitely tastes like whole wheat. But my whole family liked it and I feel better giving them whole wheat flour rather than white. Thanks for sharing!"

Canonical has had a rocky relationship at times with the rest of the open source community. The company has sometimes gone in its own direction and rather blithely disregarded criticism from others in free software. Datamation takes a look at the root of Canonical's problem and thinks that it's more about relationships than it is about specific software issues.
Admittedly, the larger community can be slow to change and quick to defend the way things are. You could argue with some success that an attempt to innovate and to do things differently is long overdue. But while Canonical has helped to transform the Linux desktop, at times its rashness has made its failures (and partial successes) as significant as its successes.
The bottom line is that Ubuntu and Canonical's relationship with the rest of free software is severely dysfunctional -- and that no one on either side appears to have the will to fix it.More at Datamation
For some reason Canonical has always reminded me of Apple. There's a certain level of arrogance in both companies, with both behaving to one degree or another as though every decision they make is the right one and those who don't agree are somehow beneath concern. This has the potential to really turn off some users who then make it a point to avoid products and services from such companies.
We saw some of this when Unity was first released, and many Ubuntu users balked at using it. Some fled to Linux Mint, while others embraced Debian or other distributions. And there was an enormous amount of angry and negative feedback in various online forums and sites across the Internet. Such is the risk a company runs when it boldly disregards user feedback in favor of following its own internal compass.
Apple's iOS 7 update caused a similar reaction among some of its customers. iOS 7 freaked out a lot of people who could not believe that the company would make such drastic changes in one release. Apple and Canonical are similar in the sense that neither company did a very good job in preparing users for big changes in user interfaces.
I suppose that strong conviction can be a good thing in some ways since it lets a company move forward aggressively toward fulfilling a larger vision, but it can also turn around and bite the company in the rear end if the vision they are working toward is flawed. There's just no way to guarantee a positive end result with companies like Apple or Canonical.
All of this can sometimes have the effect of leaving users feeling that a company they formerly trusted has become high-handed and arrogant. In the case of Canonical it seems that that feeling may have also taken root among some other free software developers and companies. And that's probably not a good thing for Canonical's long term reputation or business relationships.
Canonical should remember, however, that they are not Apple. Apple exists in its own universe, at the very top of the premium market. It can mostly do as it pleases, and it can get away with doing things other companies could never do. Canonical's situation is very different, and it's a good idea for them to remember that and act accordingly.
At this point I think Ubuntu is a take it or leave it affair. You either like and support what Canonical has done with Ubuntu or you don't. Fortunately there are plenty of fantastic alternatives to Ubuntu, and nobody is forced to embrace Canonical's vision of what Linux should be on desktop computers or mobile devices.
I don't know if Canonical will ever be able to fix its relationships with the rest of the open source community at this point. I suppose time will tell though and we'll just have to wait and see. Much may depend on the future leadership of Canonical, as times goes by there may be a generational change that could work toward improving the company's relationships with the rest of the open source community.
In the short term it looks as though things will more or less stay the same.
Should Microsoft open source Windows?
Wired has an intriguing editorial today that suggests that Microsoft should open source its Windows desktop and mobile operating systems.
Yesterday, with permission from Microsoft, Silicon Valley's Computer History Museum published the source code for MS-DOS, the text-based operating system that ran so many personal computers in the '80s and turned Microsoft into one of the industry's dominant software companies. For computer geeks, the move can provide a bit of fun — a glimpse into how software was built in the past — and it provides a nice metaphor for a Microsoft that's evolving with the times. Microsoft was once vehemently opposed to open source software, believing that it would cut into its core business, but in a modern world where open source is so very important, the company is changing its tune.
But the company shouldn't stop at symbolic gestures. We love that the MS-DOS code is now available to the world at large (even if you can't distribute your own changes to it, as with truly open source software). And we love that Microsoft has also released the code behind another seminal piece of software: Microsoft Word for Windows, originally released in 1990. But if the company is to regain its place at the head of the tech table, it needs to start open sourcing operating systems that are used today, not 30 years ago. Microsoft needs to open up the Windows Phone mobile OS — and maybe even desktop Windows.More at Wired
I admire Wired for making this suggestion, but I doubt anybody in Redmond will take it seriously. It took the company thirty years to release the source code for MS-DOS, so I can't imagine they'd even consider doing so for Windows Mobile or Windows on the desktop.
It's just not in Microsoft's DNA to act in such a way. The company has made billions and billions of dollars by keeping its code closed, and I doubt the new CEO will be bold enough to reconsider that policy. Still, you just never know. Stranger things have happened and it's possible that Microsoft could change someday.
