This quote came through my inbox this morning in a message from my Art&Design group on LinkedIn, "SLA Metrics: You Can�t Manage What You Don�t Measure".
The article (by Nicholas Colisto & linked to, below) started with, "Many IT departments pay lip service to establishing metrics used to measure support services. When they do create the metrics, they often just describe services without providing any methods of measurement. "
Now I'll be the first to admit that my eyes began to glaze over at the words "SLR Metrics", because I didn't have a clue what they meant. My caffeine levels were very near empty, and I considered hitting "Delete", but that quote in the title caught my attention so I kept skimming the article to see just how the IT world could possibly be linked on such a fundamental level to the weight-loss world.
The next string of words to stand out were, " It's worth taking the time to establish a comprehensive Service Level Agreement (SLA) that states the expected levels of service, how services will be measured, and how IT will communicate actual results."
I stopped weighing myself during my "break" because the scale and I had developed a VERY unhealthy relationship, but this article about IT business practices reminded me of the basic common sense of weight loss... "You can't manage what you don't measure".... Without weighing myself with any regularity, I pretty much made it inevitable that I would gain so much weight back because it allowed me to keep living in Obliviousland with my head stuck happily in the sand.
My bathroom brain lies to me... I HATE the way I look in most photos of me but when I'm getting ready in front of the mirror, I don't usually see with honest eyes all the weight on my face. It's sort of like reality TV vs. reality... Just like you can't believe everything you see on reality TV (edited for ratings), I cannot believe everything (good or bad) I see in the mirror (also edited for ratings)... So as much as I hate the idea of it - as much as it frightens me to re-introduce myself to the scale and regular weigh-in days, I realize it is a necessity.
What I need is to write up my own personal comprehensive Service Level Agreement (SLA) a sort of contract with myself that states MY expected levels of service to myself, how services will be measured, and how I will interpret and communicate the actual results.
So here is my personal Service Level Agreement:
Mission Statement:
I will focus on activities that lead to success rather than be consumed by the tools of measurement.
Management Responsibilities:
- I will weigh in every Monday & log for management
- I will ONLY weigh in once per week
- I will take my measurements once a month & log for management
- I will walk a minimum of 3x week (45 min. each) & log for management
- I will measure all servings
- I will monitor my water intake and increase it to a minimum of 6 cups/day.
Communication Responsibilities:
- I will blog on Sparkpeople at least once per week.
- I will not let my self confidence (or mood) be dictated BY the scale
- I will applaud every # lost
- I will applaud every # not gained
I'm sure I will be adding to this as I go on, but for now I think it's a good start
Has it really been more than a YEAR since my last blog post? My granddaughter is now take taking her first steps and I haven't blogged since she was born. A lot has happened since then - We've been traveling or having company at least every few months or so in an effort to see BabyKates more often, and I've kept pretty busy with my art business but not SO busy to excuse a year-long silence!
I'm still struggling to re-make the changes that lead to successful weight loss, gained strength and happiness back in 2008. I now realize part of my falling off the wagon, so to speak, was that I was so discouraged by the year+ plateau that I stopped visiting with Sparkers and I'm certain the final straw that took me from maintaining to gaining weight back was that I stopped logging and measuring my food and water intake. I was just really burned out on it all and without regular check-ins with Spark-friends, my "break" quickly became a way of life again.
I came across this quote on the SINGLE DAD LAUGHING blog today and thought it was a great one to share here too...
�The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.� ~Anna Quindlen
~ Kim
A fresh new reason to get/live/stay healthy... Little Katielynn...
Okay, no more reasons - no more excuses... I made the move to Whidbey Island, I enjoyed myself at my son's wedding, and the taxes are paid... Now it's officially my turn again to put the focus back on what I NEED to do for ME.
I remember back to what the big motivator was for me in 2008 - I HATED the photos of me at my niece's 2007 wedding - I somehow had not noticed the reality of just how much weight I'd put on. Now I have photos of me at my son's wedding from this month, 3 years and 54 lbs lighter... and yet, I believe these new wedding photos will be my motivator for the 2nd half of the journey to my goal...
I'm taking stage-one baby-steps again to focus on re-establishing the little habits I know make a big difference (moving, drinking lots of water, and being mindful of the calories and value of what I'm putting into my body).
I've lost 61 lbs so far and yes, I've gained a few lbs back... I am finally feeling "adjusted" enough to the smaller size that it NO-longer feels small enough (which is fine considering I'm still considered "obese" by medical standards and as of today, I still have about 48 lbs I'd like to lose).
So onward and upward -- scratch that -- DOWNward we go!
"Keep your thoughts positive, because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive, because your words become your behaviors. Keep your behaviors positive, because your behaviors become your habits. Keep your habits positive, because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive, because your values become your destiny."
~ Mahatma Gandhi

A march and rally was held in Brooklyn Saturday to draw attention to the unsolved murder of a local teen.
Chanel Petro-Nixon, 16, was last seen on Father's Day 2006 in Brooklyn when she left her parents' home to fill out a job application at a local restaurant.
Her body was later found in a garbage bag on Kingston Avenue in Crown Heights.
During an appearance on NY1's "Inside City Hall," Nixon's parents pleaded for anyone with information to step forward.
"Somebody out there know who murdered Chanel. I believe that from the bottom of my heart either they are afraid to say something or they think it's not important to say something," said Chanel's mother, Lucita Petro-Nixon.
The march, which ran from Fulton Street to Kingston Avenue, was organized by the Brooklyn Anti-Violence Coalition.

extension feeding tube use
- 0Sep 27, '11 by luvmyboysHi,
Quick question regarding the extension tubing that attaches to an indwelling NG tube. The NG tube can be left in for up to 30 days per the manufacturer although they rarely last that long. We currently use one extension tube per shift but our CNS recommeded using one per feed which seems wasteful since we flush them between feeds. Just wanted to see what was happening in the NICU community - and if anyone has any available research that would be great too! Thanks!
- 0Sep 27, '11 by luvmyboysThanks for the reply. It just seems strange to me that it would need to be changed that often when the tube actually going into the patient is used for so much longer. We also use our kangaroon bags for 24 hours and rinse every four. Some nurses choose to hang a new kangaroo bag every shift (12 hours). I'm all for policy changes that protect the patient but also would like to protect the environment if there is no real evidence that it is necessary. Surely the manufacturer would like them changed every feed!
thanks again,
- 0Sep 28, '11 by NICU_babyRNOur policy is to actually change the tubes every 7 days! We used to use the tubes for 30 days but found we were having a higher incidence of NEC. We discard all syringes and extension tubing after each feed as well.
- 0Oct 4, '11 by BittyBabyGrowerSyringes get changed every feed, tubing is good for 4 hours. We use the 30 day tubes and haven't seen an increase in NEC.
- 0Oct 4, '11 by cindee7our policy in the nicu where I work is to use a new extension feeding tube with each feeding. Seems wasteful to me as well. Flushing with sterile water after each feeding and using the extension tube for an 8 hr shift is something we used to do. I'm not sure why its changed. Perhaps nicu is following manufacturers recomendations (manufacturers playing it safe)
- 0Oct 5, '11 by EyeknitMy experience - extension tubing every feed or at a max every four hrs. NG/OG tube was silastic, changed every 30 days per manufac. guidelines. Haven't worked anywhere yet that discriminated between breastmilk and formula although as a nurse I know that formula was more prone to clog the tubing . . . . so it makes sense to change it more frequently.
- 0Nov 5, '11 by NeoNurseTXQuote from BittyBabyGrowerSyringes get changed every feed, tubing is good for 4 hours. We use the 30 day tubes and haven't seen an increase in NEC.
Same on my unit. And Kangaroo bags are changed q4h if it's continuous and with every feed if they're on bolus. However, when they go home, they get a bag a day or something of the sort... ??

Can anyone please tell me if there any difference between the homest2d of this code and the Normalized NDLT (Hartley and Zisserman: Multiple View Geometry in Computer vision)?
Hi Mr SasiKanth
I am needed to find estimation for the homography 2D that can relate a big number of points (100, 250...)
And i found this code is very interesting, especially the function homest2D
But if you may I have some question about homest2D:
1) Why you are using approximately the same approach of Fundamental Matrix? and what this can help?
2) if we have 2 sets of points, is homest2D enough to calculate the homography?
3) did you do any experimentation with homest2D? or any comparison with other algorithm, like Normalized DLT (Hartley and Zisserman: Multiple View Geometry in Computer vision)?
Thank you in advance for any help, and if you may have any document that explain each step of the algorithm, i will be very thankful
Thank you again

We stayed for two nights at the Elliot House on our seventeen day trip to New England to see the fall colors. I was very surprised to see such a beautiful home waiting for us at such a great price. The owners have set the house up beautifully and you really felt a part of the family. This might have been due to the fact that we had similar backgrounds and interests, but even so I think they were just super nice people. The grounds are fantastic and I got a photo of the most magnificent sunrise from my bedroom window! The location is perfect for visits to Burlington and the Shelburne Museum, as well as other beautiful areas in the vicinity. Well worth a stay for sure!

Anne and George are delightful hosts, generous, accommodating, and well-informed about their beautiful area of Vermont. Clean, comfortable rooms; tasty breakfast and afternoon tea and cookies; quiet location, convenient to Shelburne/Burlington activities. Beautiful vistas from the rooms at the back of the inn.

Great hosts, great rooms, great food, everything exceeded our expectations. This is what B&B's are all about. I unconditionally recommend them to all.

Anne and George go out of their way to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The way a bed and breakfast should be.

We truly enjoyed our stay at the beautifully restored Elliot House. Anne & George were terrific hots. Anne was particularly helpful as a "tour director" with suggestions & directions for places to eat and to visit. The setting, the rooms - including a library & sitting room-, and the breakfasts were superb! Neil, Cathy & Laurie
4.2 on October 30, 2008
My spouse and I always enjoy our stays at the Elliot House when we are in the Burlington area. We feel at home here. The accommodations are quite comfortable - an old farm house that is charming but certainly not pretentious. George & Anne are down to earth hosts. The breakfast table is practically situated right in the kitchen allowing for interaction during the food preparation process. The country breakfasts are always wonderfully filling.
4.4 on July 28, 2008
This was a first for my husband & me ... and what a wonderful experience. Anne & George are lovely & warm people and made us feel very comfortable in their beautiful B&B this past May '08. We'll be back!

A beautiful property and home. Our room & bathroom were very clean. The owners and their dog were very friendly. Would highly recommend! The B&B is also very close to all the attractions.

can anyone bring out the difference between what is expected from a Data Center Manager and a Data Center Administrator?
closed as not a real question by kce, voretaq7♦ Jan 10 '13 at 17:33
It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Titles vary by every place you might work...
Regardless, the DC Manager is probably responsible for the entire data center, has multiple supervisors and others below them. May only be responsible for certain aspects of the DC such as only cabinets and servers, or could actually be responsible for the entire facility, much like a General Manager type of position. Again this all varies.
The DC administrator is someone who would report to one of the aforementioned supervisors or managers. This person is often responsible for actually making changes to things, monitoring devices and deploying new stuff.
Again, this all varies across the board but should give you a good separation of responsibilities from a general view point.

Public Funding for Higher Education Declines 8 Percent from FY08 to FY13
April 30, 2014
The economic recession that began in 2008 has led to dramatically reduced state and local government revenue support of public colleges and universities, according to the FY13 edition of the State Higher Education Finance Report (SHEF). Over the past five fiscal years, state and local appropriations for higher education fell by 8 percent, from $88.8 billion to $81.6 billion. This decline in public support occurred at the same time as total full-time equivalent (FTE) enrollment at public two- and four-year colleges rose from 10.3 million to 11.3 million. However, total enrollment fell 2.4 percent from fall 2011 to fall 2012. When adjusted for inflation, state and local government appropriations for higher education fell from $7,924 per FTE in FY08 to $6,105 in FY13.
The annual SHEF report, produced by the State Higher Education Executive Officers (SHEEO), is based on data collected on all state and local revenues used to support higher education, including state and local tax dollars, lottery receipts, earnings from state-funded higher education endowments, and other sources. The SHEF report also identifies how institutions used these public revenues, including general institutional operating expenses, student financial assistance, and support for centrally-funded research, medical education, and extension programs.
According to the SHEF report, of the $81.6 billion in state and local support during FY13, the vast majority (76.5 percent) was allocated to the general operating expenses of public higher education, while special purpose or restricted state appropriations for research, agricultural extension, and medical education accounted for another 12.2 percent. About 7.9 percent of the funds were used for state and local government financial aid programs for students attending public institutions (up from 5.6 percent in 2008), and the remaining 3.4 percent was used for other expenses, such as financial aid for students attending four- and two-year private nonprofit institutions; college and university additional operating expenses, and non-credit and continuing education expenditures.
Increase in Net Tuition Revenue
While the share of state and local government funds devoted to financial assistance for students is up, net tuition revenue (total revenue minus financial aid expenditures) rose sharply as a percentage of total funding. In FY13, net tuition as a percentage of total educational revenue per FTE reached 47.5 percent, compared with 32.4 percent in 2008. This finding suggests that public institutions raised student tuition and fee charges in part to make up for declines in support from state and local governments.
A copy of the report is posted on the SHEEO Web site.

Just what a choice of machines, i thought we could have a forum vote of bike of show, the choice is immense and i would vote (and want) at least a dozen of the beauties, but my vote (maybe bias as i am currently doing a c90) goes to the deus replica c90, show us your bike of the show

I've not got a picture handy, but for sheer engineering, the Lamb Norton was my bike of the show.25/05/2014 at 9:41 pm #22560
This for me it just works o every level25/05/2014 at 11:48 pm #22567
For me it was the orange 900 Ducati by redmax26/05/2014 at 5:53 am #22569
This little fella. Subtle and perfectly executed, a credit to the builder.
26/05/2014 at 12:31 pm #22577
plus 1 on that 'figaro'
That little 125 'Brat' was perfectly portrayed. Attention to detail superb, – Clean , precise – perfect.26/05/2014 at 1:51 pm #22583
+1 on Lambs Cafe Rouge, lookin good now he's ditched the clear acrylic tank & seat. His 'Son of a Gun' goldie is still hard to beat though26/05/2014 at 4:28 pm #22587
Plus another on that 125…. The little end cap on the exhaust, the horn tucked under the seat, lovely, lovely, lovely!
I also liked the Motopunks CB…. Again great attention to detail and beautifully executed.26/05/2014 at 5:18 pm #22593

Great weekend guys..keep up the good work. We came up from Southend from Kursaal
Klassics and Kustoms to see the Bikeshed first hand..we weren't disappointed26/05/2014 at 7:00 pm #22597
James McModerator
I really loved the little bikes actually, that 125 above along with the CMBL and Deus Surfboard carriers.
So, so difficult to pin down a favourite, the usual suspects all produced outstanding work, as did many shed guys (the line between Pros and Sheds is very blurry!)
But the two biggest pleasant surprises for me were the KTM Bobber
and the Mokka bike.
Still sorting through my photos, didn't get as many as I hoped as I was so darn busy!26/05/2014 at 8:08 pm #22602
The Mokka was really pro finished… Real quality, but I have to say the KTM was a real feast! Spanners welded on the frame and even used on the paddock stand!
I was surprised to see so many bikes wearing Heidenau K60s… I put these on my Tenere for my Morocco trip this month! Saying that they wear really well, and having worn the chicken strips down to just a few mm on the rear whilst navigating the twisties in Spain, they stick really well too! Good chunky looks but better for the road and last longer than TKCs.

I might be a little bias (as I'm building a Z400) but oily rags little green Zed was well cute. Shame the builder hadn't sorted the motor out as well.27/05/2014 at 9:17 am #22614
Tough choice. So many really good bikes.
That KTM bobber was awesome but I think my favourite (another member swayed by his own build) was the pale green and cream Super Dream. Sorry, no pics. Forgot my camera.27/05/2014 at 10:34 am #22632
the best bike was the redmax flat tracker by a country mile.
the best paint was the absolutely stunning old orange BMW also by a country mile.
I have started to load my photos onto my site here if you want to look
I wrote this on facebook I think you will see what I mean when you compare photos from various people lol
["Photography at motorcycle shows" i can now predict which things will be photographed and in which manner.
i was telling someone about this on Saturday and i was right, it means i have to try even harder to find something different or at least take the same photo to a higher standard.]

Current Projects
Conceptual Innovations in Environmental Policy
This is a joint project led by James Meadowcroft of Carleton University and Daniel Fiorino of the Center for Environmental Policy at American University. It is funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities of Canada.
Partnership on Technology Innovation and the Environment: Water Technology Initiative
In this project, the Center for Environmental Policy provides management and analytical support for the Partnership on Technology Innovation and the Environment and its first initiative on water technology innovation. The water technology initiative began in January 2014 and will conclude its initial phase with a workshop in June 2014.
Collaborative Environmental Governance Annotated Bibliography
This project is evolutionary and will be updated periodically to reflect developments in the field. Please feel free to email Jenny Biddle with a suggestion of a literary papers or books that are essential in advancing the study and practice of collaborative environmental governance.
Collaborative Governance Mapping Project
This project seeks to map the connections between concepts related to collaborative governance in an effort to promote advancement in the field by connecting literature across academic disciplines. The lack of concise terminology describing collaborative governance phenomena is a barrier for theory building. Research assessing collaboration as a governance strategy frequently fails to include relevant studies due to the lack of a common vocabulary. This project begins to address this issue by distinguishing collaborative governance terminology and drawing linkages between scholars who are using different terms to describe the same thing.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- It isn't every day that more than half the Democrats in the Senate vote to repeal part of President Barack Obama's health care law.
But that's what happened Thursday night when the Senate voted 79-20 to repeal a 2.3 percent sales tax on medical devices such as catheters, pacemakers and MRI machines, which was intended to help to finance coverage for the uninsured that starts next year.
The medical device industry, a technology leader that provides lots of well-paying jobs around the country, has been lobbying all-out to repeal the tax. And Republicans were hoping Friday that the vote signals a new willingness by Democrats to defy the president on unpopular provisions of his signature law.

Between the enthusiasm of internship and the expectation of retirement, there lies the great expanse of midcareer. We define "midcareer" as the period between, roughly, the early 30s and the late 40s, a time of life when architects are starting to make career choices akin to crossing the Rubicon: strategizing how to make partner; leaving behind familiar colleagues and routines to launch a solo practice; finding ways to reconcile growing work responsibilities with the work of raising a family. Stay put? Stay nimble? Get out? These are the pressing questions. To give some perspective, ARCHITECT asked nine midcareer architects from around the country to describe how they're finding fulfillment (and paying the mortgage).

PJ's and Gracie's join forces on a nightly basis to saturate Southeastern Michigan with rotating genres of live and recorded music. Travel between the establishments without paying double cover, enjoying Gracie's eclectic mix of acts and PJ's spacious dance floor. Depending on the night, you may swing to a big band, sway to a rock group, or juggle the rave ball to the sounds of a DJ. Check the website for upcoming ear enticers. With your bucket of beers, you can raise a glass to a gleeful guitar solo or toast to a toe-tapping tympani roll. Scoop up this side deal for a cover-charge-less jaunt through two of Ann Arbor's most aurally aware bars.
At Elegance in Motion, friendly and talented dance instructors encourage movers and shakers of all ages to step into the limelight during a range of dance lessons. From within the spacious 2,400-square-foot studio, teachers guide singles, couples, and groups through ballroom, rhythmic, and social dances, such as the waltz, samba, and lindy hop. Once a week, the studio opens its door to social gatherings, allowing currently enrolled students to strut their stuff with teachers, students, or their own shadows.
Since its inception in May of 2002, The Corner has become recognized as The Birmingham Lounge. Located adjacent to The Townsend Hotel, The Corner serves unique cuisine with a light fare menu, and an extensive selection of award-winning cocktails, martinis, and premier spirits.
Vegas-style drag shows. DJ-helmed dance parties. At Stilettos, there is no such thing as a dull moment?the hot spot has been entertaining the Detroit metropolitan area, particularly the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender community, for almost two decades. On any given day, performers take the stage to incite revelry, backed by a host of drink specials, making the nightclub an ideal locale for bachelorette parties and birthdays. Both female and male impersonators strut their stuff, showcasing their best Cher, Reba McEntire, or Michael Jackson performance. Bands such as singer-songwriter duo Mama's Black Sheep croon blues-tinged tunes, and DJs pump infectious hits to move the crowds without periodically pulling the fire alarm.
We are a full service ballroom dance school that believes that everyone can dance. We have sometining for everyone.
Louie's Bar & Rocket Lounge BBQ are two adjacent hangouts with complementary moods and menus. Nightly drink specials and live music get the party going at Louie's, where bar goers can step out on the dance floor or cheer on their favorite sports team by playing catch with the HD televisions. Those with increasingly loud stomachs can commission a cornbread pulled-pork slider or other snack from Rocket Lounge, where chefs specialize in a one-of-a-kind genre of fusion barbecue. Unable to decide on a single style, Rocket cooks marry the spicy sweetness of Texan fare to the smokiness of Kansas City kitchens, yielding tender brisket, rib tips, and chopped beef. Savored by the bar at Louie's or in the checkered-tile interior of Rocket, each bite of barbecue satisfies while pairing well with frothy, cold brews.

Urulu Readies New EP for Let's Play House
- Words: James Eaton
- Photo: Jolanta Valeniece
Berlin-by-way-of-London-by-way-of-Los Angeles producer Urulu will return to the NYC-based Let's Play House imprint with the four-track Moon Unit EP next month. Set to include three originals from the budding artist, alongside a remix from Ben La Desh, Urulu's upcoming effort is said to be a "a spacier, loopier, and looser offering" than his previous outing for the label, last year's Left Coast EP. To that point, Moon Unit's title cut is described as a "dense, syncopated, seven-minute-long jam," while EP track "Sounds Like Sumo" is said to be "more noodling and melodious," and the following "Lunar Larry" as the record's "most luscious and most abstract" production.
Urulu's Moon Unit EP is scheduled to see an official release in vinyl form on June 16, with a digital release following on June 30. In the meantime, the upcoming record's artwork and tracklist are included below.

Gaining access to affordable dental care can be tough, especially in the current economy. An estimated 130 million Americans do not have dental insurance, according to the Senate Subcommittee on Primary Health and Aging. This is why it's important for there to be alternatives ways to obtain dental care, such as discount dental plans. Recently, WebMD published an article offering suggestions on how to reduce the cost of dental care.First, talk to the dentist. According to the news source, if you let your dentist know that cost is an issue, he or she may be able to discuss alternative treatments that are less expensive but just as effective. Next, the information provider suggested discount dental plans."Join a discount plan. Dental discount plans are not insurance. Instead, they offer rates reduced by as much as 10 percent to 60 percent on a range of dental procedures provided by participating dentists. To search for a plan, you can enter your zip code at DentalPlans.com," according to the news source.Finally, people who want to save on dental care should check online first to see what the average cost of the procedure they are requesting is in their area, to make sure that they are not getting ripped off.For more information on discount dental plans, call

Signor Paolita told his son of this, and that he was to give littio Lud^ Mona, as she was still culled, the ehoiue between his lovo und the love und duty she owed a mother, Eugene won to make known to her that her mother had "'umo to claim hur.

"My father said you wore to choose between us, and I love yuu mure than ever tliut you choose u mother's love in povurty, rather than wealth iu u buubund's home."

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
UNITED STATES/AMERICAS-Syrian Grand Mufti Maintains Al-Asad Has Reformist Intentions
Released on 2012-10-12 10:00 GMT

Interview with Syrian Grand Mufti Sheikh Hassoun by unidentified
interviewers in Aleppo; date not given: "''Al-Asad Could Resign'" - Der
Spiegel (Electronic Edition)
Monday November 7, 2011 13:06:56 GMT
In the West, Sheikh Hassoun, a Sunni legal scholar with a degree from
Egypt's Al-Azhar University and a Parliament member for eight years, has
always found conciliatory words. Before the European Parliament he
denounced the concept of "holy war": "Only peace is holy." At the
Ecumenical Kirchentag in Munich, he impressed people with a plea for
inter-religious dialogue and astonished German bishops with the proposal
that for reasons of secularism the CDU (Christian Democratic Union) should
delete the C from its name.
Now in October, in his homel and Hassoun has struck a very different tone.
From his funeral speech for his son Saria, who was murdered by militant
opponents of the regime, the following sentences became known: "The moment
the first (NATO) rockets hit Syria, all sons and daughters of Lebanon and
Syria will set out to become martyrs in Europe and on Palestinian soil. I
say to all those in Europe and the USA: we will prepare those who seek
martyrdom for this, they are already among you now. As of now the rule is:
eye for eye, tooth for tooth."
Last week SPIEGEL was able to accompany the Grand Mufti through Aleppo; a
rare opportunity to get a local picture of the dramatic changes in the
country, about which US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger once said that
without this key state peace will never be possible in the Middle East.
Syria lives in a state of emergency. For eight months an uprising has been
raging in which the UN says at least 3,000 people have lost their lives.
But thes e days Syria is also disintegrating into a surreal coexistence.
Cities like Homs, Hama, and Latakia report bloody clashes, Amnesty
International reports of torture even in hospitals, of abductions and
collective guilt of family members. Aleppo, the 4,000-year old metropolis,
intersection of the legendary Silk Road, looks like a city nervously
paused, hunching down for what may come: peace on probation.
In the winding alleys under the citadel, a World Culture Heritage site,
workers and merchants defiantly demonstrate normality while simultaneously
exchanging the domestic currency for dollars on the black market. Ghostly
emptiness reigns in the lovingly restored Ottoman manor houses now serving
as boutique hotels.
Church bells sound at almost the same time as the call of the muezzin.
Around the numerous mosques stand Catholic and Orthodox Christian
churches. In the markets, fully-veiled women are found next to women in
miniskirts and high heels. Armed struggle se ems infinitely far off yet
suddenly comes quite near as sirens wail and both dead and wounded are
delivered from a bloody clash only 15 km from the city center.
Are the faiths now being played off against each other in the charged
atmosphere? Is there a threat of retaliation by the Sunni majority, 71% of
the population, against the Shiite minority of the Alawites (12%), to
which the president's clan belongs that has now imposed 40 years of
authoritarian rule?
Last Wednesday (2 November) the government approved a peace plan of the
Arab League but there can be no talk of the situation growing calmer:
There were again bloody battles after the Friday prayers.
The Grand Mufti receives visitors in the office of his residence near the
university in front of a large wall of books interrupted only by an
engraved calligraphy: "God teaches us everything, including how to
correctly handle language," it says. The talks with him extend over two
afternoons, s ometimes interrupted when he speaks of the death of his son
and sadness overcomes the Mufti; more rarely disturbed by a visitor who
hands over a letter and in accordance with tradition kisses the hand of
the religious leader. The interpreting is provided by a friend of the
house who everyone calls simply George: not a Muslim, but an Armenian
(Spiegel) Sheikh Hassoun, there are at least 3,000 dead in Syria since
March. Can a civil war still be prevented?
(Hassoun) It is possible, but all sides must also truly want peace. The
government has just approved a concession: It will withdraw the army and
all tanks from the city centers. But you have to realize how everything
began in order to understand how far the path to reconciliation still is:
Many forces, especially abroad, have an interest in a further escalation.
(Spiegel) What do you mean by that?
(Hassoun) In March, in Daraa there was a fully legitimate, peaceful
demonstration against t he governor of the region, he had thrown
schoolchildren into prison. Daraa is a town near the Jordanian border
known for smuggling. I went there immediately and had already calmed down
the situation, promising the people an independent investigation. At my
suggestion the president replaced the governor. But then imams infiltrated
in from Saudi Arabia especially heated up the situation with their
inflammatory slogans. The news stations Al Jazeera and Al-Arabiya,
headquartered in the Gulf States, helped by wrongly asserting that the
clergy are on the side of the anti-Asad demonstrators.
(Spiegel) The uprising against Al-Asad was not triggered by the regime's
repression but controlled from abroad?
(Hassoun) Look at the second stronghold of unrest besides Daraa: Homs.
This town too is very close to the border, the Lebanese one. Unpleasant
elements also streamed into it: Iraqis, Afghans, Saudis, Yemenis. All with
a radical, fundamentalist agenda. The provocateurs ev en attacked police
chiefs and soldiers in their private homes.
(Spiegel) That sounds like a conspiracy theory with which you want to
whitewash the failure of the Al-Asad regime.
(Hassoun) The government is not the way you describe it. But it has made
political and economic mistakes and not liberalized fast enough and
extensively enough. The president bears accountability for that.
(Spiegel) Do you also tell him that in your private conversations?
(Hassoun) It is known that I generally support the president's policy. But
if I think I must criticize and correct then I also do that; for example,
on the necessary improvement in the living standards of poor segments of
the population and handling of dissidents. There is an old guard in our
government circles, these people are stepping on the brakes and must be
(Spiegel) And the president listens to you? To us he seems resistant to
(Hassoun) I think he is not so much atta ched to his office.
(Spiegel) Under what circumstances do you then feel Al-Asad would be
prepared to resign, a condition that many insurgents set and that is
shared by US President Barack Obama and European politicians?
(Hassoun) I am convinced he will gradually introduce reform steps, allow
free and fair elections with independent parties, and then after a
peaceful transition he could be prepared to step down. He is not a
president for life. The former ophthalmologist Bashar al-Asad would like
to go back to his own profession: I can fully imagine that, he has already
told me multiple times of his dream of running an eye clinic.
(Spiegel) But this time he has been very hesitant in deciding on reform
steps, under the massive pressure of the Arab League he has been willing
to end the violence within the next two weeks. Has Al-Asad underestimated
the revolutionary awakening in the Middle East? Did you also fail to see
it coming that the authoritarian rulers of the region could be swept away?
(Hassoun) Ah, the Arab League an d the so-called Arab Spring. In my
opinion the League is deeply divided into a wing that sees itself
primarily in resistance to Israel and another one taking a position
against a supposed Iranian hegemony. If the League is so worried about
Syria, where is its outcry against much worse situations in Yemen, in
Bahrain? And what has truly grown better in Egypt? Should we welcome the
rise of Islamist parties? I believe in the strict separation of church and
(Spiegel) Not all Islamists are enemies of democracy. The election winners
in Tunis have committed to pluralism, the AKP in Ankara largely practices
(Hassoun) I was in Turkey nine months ago and met with almost all leading
politicians. And I must confess I was very taken.
(Spiegel) Your northern neighbor has taken the side of the Al-Asad
opponents. Turkey allows the so-called Free Syrian Army to organize
attacks against northern Syria from its soil. It also shelters the Syrian
National Council, the joint organization of the opposition that announced
its formation a few months ago in Istanbul.
(Hassoun) Yes, that greatly surprised and angered me. There is not even a
political program yet of the so-called National Council. I say to them:
Present something, negotiate with the Al-Asad government on a realistic
timetable, and then let the people decide who has the more persuasive
(Spiegel) At least some of the Al-Asad opponents now appear to want a
Libyan scenario, one of armed struggle...
(Hassoun) ...that has no chance. Al-Asad is not Al-Qadhafi, Syria is not
comparable to Libya. We are a large cultural nation, bloody revolutions do
not suit us. Furthermore, we have a functioning and loyal army aware of
its tradition.
(Spiegel) That is what you say. Many soldiers have joined the resistance.
(Hassoun) How many, 50 or 55? We are talking about an army wi th tens of
thousands of men. But many of the radical Sunni preachers in Saudi Arabia
and the Gulf region incite the people; unfortunately, they find some
kindred spirits among Sunni imams in my homeland. They have issued a fatwa
against me because they believe I betray religion, I am too moderate. But
I am not the only one on the death list.
(Spiegel) Who else?
(Hassoun) They put my innocent son Saria in their sights, a 22-year-old
student who was always friendly to everyone, who studied international
relations and did not want to make religion his career: So much for the
collective guilt attacked by you in a different connection! If only the
four attackers had found only me instead of him!
(passage omitted on 100-word report about Sheikh Hassoun paying visits of
condolence to Christian, Muslim families, and his own family's mourning
about the death of his younger son, Saria)
(Spiegel) In your funeral speech, why did you threaten Europe and the US A
with suicide attacks?
(Hassoun) I did not threaten suicide attacks, but instead depicted a
scenario like the one that can easily develop from the situation, and
warned of what could happen. People took sentences out of context and gave
them a different color. Furthermore, the connection to which my statement
was related was a self-defense situation: a possible NATO attack on
(Spiegel) ...which former American presidential candidate John McCain and
also some opposition Syrians acting abroad have already suggested.
(Hassoun) If it comes to that, the world will explode. Then there will be
a very large bloodbath that will also affect you in the West. That is why
Europe should be more engaged in the region: The Europeans would be better
peace mediators than the Arab League.
(Spiegel) Back to your funeral speech...
(Hassoun) ...the nature of which was distorted by the sentences quoted by
you. For me it was not about warmongering but ab out reconciliation, even
with the murderers of my son Saria. "For those who have killed him, I ask
God that they not have to drink from the same glass as me, this glass of
suffering," I sai d. "I ask God to forgive you." And I called on all
parents whose sons are bearing weapons: "Make sure that they no longer use
their guns."
(Spiegel) But you also asserted that what the murderers were aiming at was
"not Saria, but Syria. You want Syria to kneel before Zionism and
America." If you see the perpetrators as being among extreme Sunnis, why
do you then accuse Israel and the USA?
(Hassoun) There is a close connection between the Saudi royal house and
the American White House. The Americans are very frequently on the side of
the oppressors. I am always on the side of the oppressed.
(Spiegel) And that means what for your role in Syria?
(Hassoun) I feel myself to be the Grand Mufti of all 23 million Syrians,
not jus t the Muslims but also the Christians and even the atheists. I am
a man of dialogue. Who knows, if some day an agnostic persuades me with
better arguments then I will become a non-believer. And if an opposition
political program should fill me with enthusiasm, then I will also change
(Spiegel) What should be your legacy as a scholar of religion?
(Hassoun) The bloodshed must stop! If I could succeed in bringing about
peace then my enemies are welcome to kill me: I would be happy to give my
life for that!
(Spiegel) Sheikh Hassoun, we thank you for this interview.

Unsuccessful Republican Senate candidate Clint Didier will hold a press conference Friday morning in Seattle. To announce what isn't exactly clear.
Candidates who finish out of the winners' circle in the primary often announce within the week that they are endorsing the party's winner. It usually involves grasping the winner's hand, patting him or her on the back, and announcing that "whatever our differences may have been during primary, they are minor — miniscule, infinitessimal in fact — compared to our differences with the incumbent." This is followed by a promise to do everything possible to see the former opponent who is now a trusted ally and valued friend, applause, kind words from the former opponent, smiles, more handshakes, raising grasped hands overhead and the blessing of party elders who have prevailed upon the two former enemies to make nice and bury the hatchet for the good of the party.
So is that what's going to happen on Friday? …
The press release doesn't give a hint as to the nature of the announcement, but it seems likely that even if Didier does endorse Dino Rossi, it won't go that far.
First, the post-election message on his campaign website gives no hint of endorsing Rossi:"And you've told me your votes aren't just an automatic 'gimme'
because of the letter next to a candidate's name. Anyone who wants to represent
you wonderful people needs to hear – no, make that really listen to - what you
have to say. To listen to the wisdom of the people, and to make commitments
that will be kept. You need to see some fire in the belly and some real
conviction to get your votes.
"I'm going to make sure that your voices aren't drowned out as we head into the election. I promise my supporters that I'll be with you all the way to Election Day – and beyond."
Second, the announcement is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. in Seattle, and Rossi is scheduled to be in Othello at that time, so they can't do the shake hands, hug, wave maneuver.

Terror Firmer is a 1999 comedy horror film directed by Lloyd Kaufman, written by Patrick Cassidy and Douglas Buck, and starring Will Keenan, Alyce LaTourelle, and Kaufman. The film was produced by the Troma Entertainment company, known for distributing campy exploitation films. The film features several direct references to the previous Troma films, such as The Toxic Avenger, and includes famous Troma props, like the 'Penis Monster' (referred to, in the film, as "Thor, the God of Love") and a severed leg. It was loosely based, in that respect, on Kaufman's and James Gunn's book All I Need to Know about Filmmaking I Learned from the Toxic Avenger.
