The wildly popular game's latest installment bears the hallmarks of a culture of defeat.
What is the legacy of an Iliad-long war? Has it changed us?
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is a wildly popular end-of-war game. Millions of copies were sold within hours of its November release, with Americans alone snapping up 9 million copies that month. The official trailer for its new expansion, Face Off, is worth one minute and 50 seconds of your time even if, like me, you are not a habitual gamer. It is a remarkable portrait of America's love affair with war, and a deeply troubling glimpse into how war changes national identity.
A camera pans across a hilltop firebase as music plays that could be right out of an Ennio Morricone film. Hesco gabions are stacked so close that it's as if you could reach out and touch the wire mesh. Two men face off in full battle-harness where only digicam is standard issue. Their heavy gear is all medieval man-at-arms: pauldrons, cuisses, and greaves. One wears a gas mask, the other a hockey goalkeeper's mask. This is not combat but rather the warrior test of the duel. It is over in an instant.
These are not American soldiers as we know them today, nor are they even like legionnaires of old. These are our All-American version of Ghazi warriors—in Arabic, "the makers of war." They are the imagined spiritual brothers of our presumed enemies, across the mountains and deserts and cities of the Dar al-Islam.
Today's gamers are not simply dressing up in cool fighting fashion. They are adopting enemy fashion and battle style.
Their faces are covered as an act of intimidation and a sign of divine righteousness. The reflector shades from the early stages of our adventure have been tossed away for the goalkeeper's mask of Jason. The weapons are as sacred as any ancient named blade, and the duel's winner (hero?) has chosen perhaps the most iconic American changeling for the sword: the barrel-ribbed, big-frame revolver.
Yet Faceoff merely extends the overriding motif for all combat in Call of Duty MW3: War itself is back to the face-to-face of warrior-to-warrior. Even big battles here ignore U.S. infantry tactics and combined-arms doctrine.
Just a handful of years ago, great game franchises had a far different function. In Halo, American space marines, "the armies of the West," fought for the fate of Earth. The enemy was inhuman, and thus good and evil were etched purely and plainly. The fight was for not just a nation but for all of mankind, just as it was in World War 2. The story was the same in the early war on terror too, and it echoed in the reigning film of the day, Lord of the Rings. So many soldiers I knew then played Halo religiously. Many still do.
But things were changing. The new war was fought not by the people but by the state alone. Its battles soon were shown to be impure, and its warriors lost innocence in the eyes of the world. The wreckage of battle filled those eyes each day. The new war became old. What we feel in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is the result of that transformation, what Wolfgang Schivelbusch calls The Culture of Defeat.
The surface story of what happens in defeat is easy. The big loser is stripped of its claim on military fashion. When North and South made war in 1861, they raised scores of Zouave regiments that paid homage to the oriental-garbed Muslim units of French colonial Algeria. But when France was defeated by Germany in 1871, the US Army threw away its képis and put on the Prussian pickelhaube.
In MW3, we see the same sort of adoption of enemy fashion and battle style. It represents an acknowledgement—as it has since ancient times—that the enemy are now top warriors and own the future of war. This is no different than Late Romans putting off their fabled lorica segmentata and putting down old gladius and scutum, and putting on Gothic trouser and spangenhelm and picking up long sword and round shield—Latin homage to Barbaricum. Today's gamers are not simply dressing up in cool fighting fashion. Rather, they are appropriating and internalizing the transcendental promise of a badder enemy other.
But there is a suggestively deeper level too. American first-person shooters have always offered a rush of combat transcendence, as described by Ernst Junger in his World War I memoir, Storm of Steel:
Bravery, fearless risking of one's own life, is always inspiring. We too found ourselves picked up by this wild fury, and scrabbling around to grab a few hand grenades, rushed to form part of this berserker's progress.
In MW3, the berserker's fury unfolds in the familiar wreckage where we fought our long war, but it also, thrillingly, comes to our own cities. Civilization everywhere hangs by a thread. But here the "good guy" player joyously engages in the wrecking as much as the enemy. Vicariously, MW3 players are living out the experience of German soldiers like Junger—defeated berserkers bringing their wild fury home. As Schivelbusch tells:
The decisive element and defining criterion of the front line was fire. By passing through it, the so-called generation of the front underwent its baptism, its salvation ritual, or, to use on of the more popular terms of nationalistic literature, its "purification" of the illusions, deformities, and pieties of prewar society.
The very texture of MW3 gameplay seems to revel in ruin, lovingly defacing and tearing down the structures of modernity with every jerk of the trigger. Our great cities are torn apart with tall towers toppling like Troy's. In the Faceoff "launch trailer," there is a lavish shoot-out in a solemn Pompeian temple, beneath an angry Vesuvius. Yet astonishingly it is not an archaeological ruin but rather ancient-pristine, at least until our fighters scar and trash its frescoed walls.

Ref: WS-Addressing 1.0 Core (http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-ws-addr-core-20050331) The Editorial Note on page 2 of the specification (at the bottom of the section "Status of the Document") states: "The Web Services Addressing Working Group has decided to use XML Schema, where appropriate, to describe constructs defined in this specification. Note that this restricts use of Web Services Addressing to XML 1.0." However, later towards the end of section 1.2 it stated, "Examples in this specification use an XML 1.0 [XML 1.0 <http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-ws-addr-core-20050331/#XML10>] representation but this is not a requirement."

Two tea-party heroines
Sarah and Michele
ALL this could change in an instant, but so far the media organisations trawling Sarah Palin's email trove for some fatal "gotcha" have come up with zilch. If anything, the former governor of Alaska emerges as an industrious and rather endearing figure. Politico's assessment gets it about right:
The Palin that emerges from the first cut at nearly 25,000 emails released by the state of Alaska Friday is touchingly authentic, responding to the news she's been tapped for the national ticket with the words, "Can you flippinbelieveit?!"

The real thing
By Wes the do it yourselfer
from North Reading, MA
Comments about 95,000 BTU Output Cast Iron Oil Boiler (No Burner):
I bought the 5 section version of this boiler for my home 5 years ago and could not be happier. Easy to clean and very efficient. Cast iron firebox is a long term plus. Bought this one to replace my daughter's 16 year old refractory based boiler that had degraded to hazard. Actually bought this as a package with Riello burner. The package also had a Becket Aquasmart controller, relief valve, and flex oil line - a real package - included.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not enough whiz or Bang
By Sugar maker
from Jeffersonville, Vt
We are replacing a twenty +++ year Weil McClain boiler. Our new boiler is light weight and compact. It was a very easy install that I was able to do myself. This boiler heats our house using much, much less oil. In this day and age that was a big reason for our purchase of the Buderus. We would recommend this product to our family and friends. Pex Supply was a an exchange that I will use as comparison to our experience with other vendors; working with the people at Pex Supply was informational and enjoyed.

Items Needed:
Sheet metal
Bezel wire of same or similar material
Jewelers saw
Flat and half round needle nose pliers
Nippers (ask anyone, that's an acceptable term)
Files, needle fils or larger hand files - it all depends on the size of the piece you are making
Sanding sticks
Bezel roller
Step 1: Measure bezel wire to stone
-wrap the wire around the stone
-cut where it looks right
-shape the bezel to hold at the right position for the stone
-make adjustments as neccessary
Step 2: Solder bezel closed
Step 3: Solder bezel to back plate
Step 4: Remove extra metal and sand
I love sanding disks for this part but if you prefer hand tools, start with your coarsest file and go to your finest. Then continue with sandpaper in the same order. I usually go as far as 2/0 sandpaper before polishing.
Step 5: Set stone
Have set a few stones this way. By far the best method I use. A good Instructable.
Before you lay the stone into the metal bezel for the first time, lay a piece of dental tape (not dental floss) across the bottom of the metal plate so the ends extend onto the work surface on both sides.. Lay the stone on top to see if it fits right. If you then need to remove the stone for a final adjustment, it's easy to do by lifting the dental tape.

Do Ads Really Need to Be Clicked On, Anyway?
M.J. Rose has some thoughts about online advertising after yesterday's post on whether clicking on ads really helps the blogs you read. Rose says she agrees with Seth Godin about creating "the most robust ad environment" possible, but she's got a slight twist.
Godin emphasizes a scenario where advertisers have more opportunities to convert slightly interested consumers into purchasers, while Rose argues that conversion isn't even the point—it's about the increased exposure that comes with cheaper ad rates for online eyeballs. Most books, except for a handful written by established bestselling writers or dealing with hot topics, "won't sell via an ad," she says. "They will interest a reader via an ad," though, and that should be enough: "Why are we suddenly judging ads by the most difficult criteria when for years publishers didn't have any way to judge their ads at all?"
Anybody in the online marketing departments got any thoughts on this? And, circling back to the issue that started this whole discussion, is this vision of affordable ad territory really Good for the Bloggers?

NEW RELEASE: Schumann: Kinderszenen & Waldszenen; Janáček: On the overgrown path I
Marc's latest disc on Hyperion is the GRAMOPHONE JUNE 2014 RECORDING OF THE MONTH AND BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE RECORDING OF THE MONTH
'In Hamelin's latest disc of music by Janáček and Schumann, he shows himself a virtuoso in a deeper sense, a virtuoso in sound, colour and poetic empathy, one who, to quote Liszt, 'breathes the breath of life'. Using his prodigious command in music of a transcendental difficulty—the Chopin-Godowsky Études, the major works of Alkan, Albéniz's Iberia, etc—he displays gifts which show him as first and foremost a musician's musician' (Gramophone).
The New York Times writes that "The pianist Marc-André Hamelin brings commanding technique, elegant musicianship and imaginination..."

Firefighter Gets 4 Years In Fatal Drunken-Driving Crash
Updated On: May 08 2007 05:27:43 AM EDT
A Cincinnati firefighter will spend four years in prison for killing a woman in a December crash.
Joseph Dance was arrested after he drove a sport utility vehicle up an exit ramp onto Interstate 71 and hit an oncoming car.
The driver of the other car, Lisa Kreutzer, 26, died at University Hospital a short time later.
Police said Dance admitted that he'd been drinking, had trouble with a field sobriety test and refused a Breathalyzer test at the scene.
Last month, Dance pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated vehicular homicide.
On Tuesday, a judge sentenced Dance to four years in prison. He could have been sentenced to serve between two and eight years.
Dance told the court that he can't take back what happened and he wished it never happened. Dance also apologized to Kreutzer's family.

I've been working from home for a couple years now but somehow I can never seem to take advantage of any "home office" deductions or credits. I think it's because I don't really have a big,separate office space- just a small section of the living room, lol. In the past, whenever I've tried to add up the expenses and do an itemized deduction, it never comes out better than me just taking the standarized deduction.
Am I missing something? Everyone I talk to thinks there should be some great tax benefits from working at home but I'm just not seeing it.

Just updated the AV software on the Director of Music's laptop after installing Vista SP2. Upon launching Sibelius 5.x (5.2.5 to be precise, affects all versions).
Splash screen gets stuck on "Creating Tool Windows : ToolName"
Upon removing Sophos it was back to normal, reinstall sophos from the Enterprise Console and it dies again.
Rang up Sibelius and they were aware of the problem, (but you only get support for 30days after registering the serial).
Just a heads up for anyone.

Publisher: Hohm Pr
OncoLink Rating:
Chia Martin was diagnosed with colon cancer in 1998. Her daughter, Carrie, was seven at the time. Children often have difficulty expressing their emotions, and Carrie was no different. Carrie, like many children, likes to draw. It is through her artwork that she is able to express the emotions she has experienced during her mother's battle with cancer. This book is a collection of Carrie's artwork and interpretations of her feelings, created by the mother and daughter team.
"Creating this book was one of the best things Carrie and I ever did together," says Chia Martin, "it unfolded because we both needed it to." Chia found that these pictures acted as a springboard to discussions about Carrie's feelings. This book is a good tool for those who care for and about the children of cancer patients. Reading the book with a child will surely open a dialogue for them to share their own feelings. Carrie's drawings and interpretations can let children know that it is okay to say what you are feeling and that other people feel the same. This book is best for children ages through 8.
Aug 11, 2010 - Canadian oncologists and those from the United States have similar attitudes and concerns about the costs and cost-effectiveness of cancer drugs as well as related health policies, according to research published online Aug. 9 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

¼ cup Yacon or Agave or Honey
1 teaspoon Vanilla

Melt coconut oil stir in sweetner and vanilla, then add half to one cup of cacao powder till thick and difficult to stir… Sometimes I also add a tablespoon or two of cinnamon for it's glycemic benefit…

If you stir it too much, it gets grainie... I use a fork and stir it until it is just mixed... Usually looks shinny and smooth and tastes that way... Good luck!!!

IS there any way to get that powder texture out when making things with cacao powder?

The First Word in Protective & Marine Coatings
A Product of Technology Publishing / PaintSquare
JPCL | PaintSquare News
| Durability + Design
| Paint BidTracker
Main News Page
Wednesday, April 21, 2010
The U.S. Coast Guard late Wednesday continued the search for 11 missing crew members from the mobile offshore drilling unit Deepwater Horizon off the coast of Louisiana, the site of an explosion and fire Tuesday night.
News reports quoted the rig's owner, Transocean Ltd., as saying the unit was drilling but not in production. The rig was under contract to BP Plc. A spokesman for BP was quoted as saying all company personnel were safe. There were no immediate reports of personnel on board who may be connected to contractor functions, such as painting or protective-coating operations.
At a news conference late Wednesday, Transocean Vice President Adrian Rose said that of the 126 on board the offshore unit at the time of the incident, 79 were Transocean employees, six were BP employees, and the remaining 41 were "third-party service providers." He did not provide details on the service-provider workers, their affiliations, or the type of work they were engaged in.
Rose said the explosion and fire occurred during an operation involving the cementing of production casing. He said there was no indication of problems, and the cause of the explosion and fire were not known. He said Transocean was cooperating with government and regulatory agencies in the investigation, and he expressed regret about the injured and missing crew members.
In reply to a question from PaintSquare News, Rose said he could not say what type of activities the third-party service providers were engaged in. Typical activities of third-party workers include casing and cementing operations, he said.
The oil fire was still burning late Wednesday, and the cause of the explosion remained under investigation. Initial indications show that the explosion was not a terrorist incident, the Coast Guard said.
The Coast Guard District Eight command center in New Orleans received a report at approximately 10 p.m. Tuesday of an explosion and fire aboard the drilling unit, located approximately 42 miles southeast of Venice, La. Reports indicate that there were 126 people on board the MODU at the time of the explosion. The Coast Guard said late Wednesday that 115 crew members had been accounted for. Of those, 17 were med-evacuated from the scene; 94 were being transferred to shore at Port Fourchon, La., aboard an offshore supply vessel, with no major injuries to these personnel; and four crew members had been transferred to another vessel.
The Coast Guard said it was actively searching for all unaccounted personnel, with rescue helicopters, a rescue plane, and four cutters.
Spokesman for BP referred questions from PaintSquare News to Transocean Ltd. Calls to the company were not immediately returned.

This is great guys. I love the new tips and techniques section. And also that you have the products listed right under the video. All I need to do is add to my cart. Saves looking around the site to find what ends match with the cord. Loving the changes to the site. Great video and photos – shows really good close ups so you can see exactly what to do and how to do it.
Thanks! We're going to keep making the section better and better
Everything looks great, but the sound could be a bit louder. I checked my computer and all sound systems and speakers were at 100% so I'm guessing it's the sound of the video. Otherwise, great addition to the Lima Beads site!
Love the How to sections & videos ~
Limabeads has grown soooo much since I first visited…You have a great site & team!
Just moved and haven't beaded. so was poking around and discovered this new section. It's fantastic! Thanks for adding this, can't wait to learn more!
Just found u site today, and luv u tips section and wonderful patina products. U gota a friend in me… Thanks
I have a project that would benefit from this – thanks!
What a find Lima Beads is!! Wow- the set-up is very good. I also like having the products available along with the tutorial. I can watch as many times as I wish…just wish I could add a ? and get an answer. is that possible using this method??
Off subject, but her watch looks so cool…
Thanks, I get that a lot Sometimes people think its a sundial, but it is just a cuff bracelet. Kevin got it for me as a surprise from this amazing artist Elaine Rader. She came to the Ann Arbor Art Fair and since then I am in love with all of her work.
This is my first time on your site. I look forward to meeting others and sharing tips. I have seen some awesome pieces, very inspiring. Here's two of my designs.
This will be my first time glueing leather into a crimp end or end cap, if the item description says the crimp end is 4mm, does that mean the inside diameter is equivalent to 4mm? If not, how can I know what size cord will fit into the end cap?
This is a tricky one SMJ. In this instance with the crimp cord end featured above you would use a 4mm cord. Unfortunately this is not always the case. What is really important is knowing the measurement of the inside diameter of the cord end you would like to use.
Add your thoughts!

Lindsay was reportedly attacked and choked after clubbing in Manhattan — read on for the scary details. Plus, HollywoodLife.com spoke EXCLUSIVELY to a source close to Lindsay, who gave us an update on her condition.
Lindsay Lohan is allegedly the victim of assault, as police arrested the man she claimed hit her after they met at a New York City nightclub. This drama comes less than two weeks after Lindsay, 26, was arrested for an alleged hit and run at a different NYC hotel.
Lindsay told police she was attacked by 25-year-old Christian LaBella at the W Hotel near Union Square, WNBC reports. The altercation, which took place around 4:30 a.m. on September 30, was allegedly the result of an argument between the pair about cell phone pictures Christian took of Lindsay.
Lindsay told police that Christian was so upset at the accusation that he threw her down on the bed, scratching her hands in the process. She ran away in fright, but soon returned to the room and claims she was further attacked, with her assailant choking her, throwing her to the ground and getting on top of her.
She was reportedly saved by a friend staying at the hotel who got Christian off of her. Lindsay then pulled a fire alarm as the Christian tried to escape, and he was taken into police custody and charged with assault and harassment.
A NY Police spokesperson tells HollywoodLife.com that Christian was handcuffed, charged for assault and taken from the scene around 6:30 a.m. on Sept. 30. But once he was brought in to the station, his assault charge was dropped to harassment because "the investigation revealed that the incident didn't rise to the level of an assault."
Neither Christian or Lindsay are required to appear in court regarding the incident, the NYPD tell us.
HollywoodLife.com spoke EXCLUSIVELY to a source close to Lindsay, who gave us an update on her condition.
"She's OK — a little shaken up but good," our source said. "It's so scary. Trouble just seems to follow her everywhere."
Meanwhile, Lindsay declined medical treatment for her injuries.
Lindsay had met Christian earlier that night at a 1 Oak, a club in Chelsea.
Do YOU think Lindsay will ever be able to avoid trouble, HollywoodLifers?

LAWRENCE, Kan. -- Matchups with 11 schools that finished last season in the ITA National Rankings, including seven 2007 NCAA Tournament teams, highlight the University of Kansas' 2007-08 schedule.

Google Checkout Glitches
Updated from 11:22 a.m.
Some users of Google's (GOOG) online payment processing system Google Checkout are experiencing technical glitches.
The service, which some analysts say poses a competitive threat to eBay's (EBAY) PayPal, sometimes takes longer than anticipated to process orders. The delays are caused by Google Checkout's fraud protection features.
"Occasionally, these procedures result in brief delays for a small percentage of users," the Mountain View, Calif.-based company says in a statement. "We are continually working to make the process as efficient as possible to ensure that Google Checkout is secure and convenient for both merchants and buyers."In addition, some shoppers have complained that orders through Google Checkout have been canceled without justification, according to IDG News Service, a trade publication that earlier reported the glitches. Customers have complained to merchants, IDG says. Google Checkout, which is accepted at sites owned by Starbucks (SBUX), Timberland (TBL) and Jockey, lets people store their credit card information with Google so that they don't have to continually provide it to online merchants while they shop. The problems with the payment processing feature underscore the weakness with Google's product development outside of search. Google often brags about how it releases products "early" and fixes them later after receiving feedback from users. The company has argued that this approach to product development keeps it nimble.

MF Global Bonuses: You Need to Spend Money to Make Money
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Paying bonuses to top executives MF Global (MFGLQ.PK) sounds like a gross injustice, so small wonder we see senators Jon Tester (D., Mont.) and Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) writing letters to former FBI chief Louis Freeh, trustee of the bankrupt company, expressing outrage about reports that Freeh wants to do just that.
According to a report in The Wall Street Journal citing an email from Frank Piantidosi, an adviser to Freeh, bonuses would go to chief operating officer Bradley Abelow, General Counsel Laurie Ferber and CFO Henri Steenkamp.
According to the report, the three executives could get "performance-related bonuses" of "as much as several hundred thousand dollars each."
Tester calls the request "outrageous," since, according to his letter, "Montana farmers and ranchers...suffered significant losses following the disappearance of hundreds of millions of dollars" from MF Global.Klobuchar makes similar statements in her letter. But why is it necessarily outrageous? The Wall Street Journal's report also includes an interview with Frank Piantidosi, an adviser to Freeh's firm, who argues keeping the trio around is "saving a considerable amount of the estate's resources." Won't the senators admit that this at least sounds plausible? How do you find missing money without relying, at least to an extent, upon the people who saw it last? Unless Abelow, Ferber and Steenkamp are charged with a crime (which they haven't been) what incentive do they have to help find the money unless you pay them. Sad to say it, a few hundred thousand dollars is a relative pittance for these people. Instead of insisting that no bonuses should be paid out, why don't the senators simply insist that Freeh and co. prove the executives were helpful in increasing the payout to Tester's farmers and ranchers? Is this so difficult? If they can prove they helped, they get to keep some of the money. If they can't, they don't. I know populist outrage is in fashion these days, but c'mon senators: use some common sense. -- Written by Dan Freed in New York. Follow this writer on Twitter.

Challenging the LVN board
- 0Dec 11, '07 by anaranjo81I have been a Medical Assistant for 7 years and attending college to become an RN. One of the PA's I work with said I could challenge the board if I take an Pharmaceutical class. Does anyone know if this is possible? This is my first semester in college and I have a long way to go. Any help? I probably need to make this a little more clear. I would like to challenge the LVN board to become an LVN. I know I need to attend school to become an RN no doubt about that. So my question is if there's a chance I can challenge to become and LVN?Last edit by anaranjo81 on Dec 11, '07
- 0Dec 11, '07 by megananne7I don't know much about challenging the boards but I can see facilities being hesitant to hire someone who hasn't completed nursing school...
- 0Dec 11, '07 by AntFlip7395In some states, RN students may challenge the LPN/LVN boards after completing the first year, however, in your current position as an MA, I am certain that you cannot. In order to take a state board test, you must complete a state approved curriculum with a certain number of both didactic and clinical hours.
- 0Dec 11, '07 by Fiona59Hospitals often hire RN students into various types of positions. Usually first years wind up working as NAs. At the end of second and third years my hospital hires them as something along the lines of "employed nursing students". They have roughly the same scope as a PN but do not have a license and I'm not even sure how insurance covers them.
To write the PN exam up here you must be a graduate of a recognized educational programme for PNs.
- 0Dec 11, '07 by L&D_2bIf you are located in California, then yes, I have heard of it. However, you have to have X amount of experience as a CNA in different nursing areas (ie, pediatrics floor, med surg, etc). I think that is what your friend is referring to since she said you would need a pharmacology course. I know if you plan on challenging the LVN boards in CA you would need a formal course in pharmacology. Now, can you still do that program as a medical assistant, I don't know. You would have to ask the CA Board of Nursing that question.
Also, please keep in mind that that program is limited to CA only. You cannot transfer a license out of that state.
If I find more info on it, I'll post it here.
Good luck,
- 1Dec 11, '07 by L&D_2bAs promised, here's the link:
Good luck,
- 0Dec 11, '07 by caliotter3If you are a resident of CA the information is given on the BVNPT website under Method 3. They list all the criteria. This has been discussed on the site in the past. It is a lot more involved than taking the Pharmacology course. Read what they say on the site. Good luck.
- 0Dec 12, '07 by anaranjo81Thank you so much for the info!

Sri Lankan forces have renewed their offensive against the rebel Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) after a 48 hour pause in fighting to allow civilians to escape the war zone.
The latest assualt launched on Tuesday is aimed at capturing a Tamil Tiger naval installation on the northeast coast, the army said.
The military claims it has killed dozens of LTTE fighters in the latest battles, and is in the final stage of operations to defeat the group.
Meanwhile, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said that at least three civilians were killed and another 10 injured when a hospital in the war zone in the country's north was shelled for the fourth time in two days.
The repeated attacks on the hospital in Puthikudiyiruppu has led to the deaths of 12 people in total, according to the ICRC.
The military is said to have surrounded LTTE rebels in the Puthikudiyiruppu jungle region.
Also on Tuesday, the Sri Lankan army said that its forces had captured the LTTE's seventh and final airstrip, effectively grounding the rebel's small air force.
Trapped civilians
Aid agencies said on Sunday that 250,000 civilians were trapped in areas where heavy fighting was raging. The government puts the number of trapped civilians at about 120,000.
Civilians trapped in Sri Lanka fighting
It is unclear how many people have managed to flee the area since then.
The Sri Lankan government has said it cannot guarantee the safety of civilians living among LTTE separatists in the north of the country.
Lakshman Hulugalle, a government spokesman, urged civilians to seek shelter in a government "safe zone", but did not say how the civilians would be able to flee if they were being held against their will as human shields, as claimed by the government's military.
The LTTE denies holding civilians against their will, saying that people were refusing to go since they feared that the army would abuse them.
The shelling of the Puthikudiyiruppu hospital has raised fears for civilians.
'Acute stress'
Sophie Ramanens, an ICRC spokesperson, told Al Jazeera: "Humanitarian law has to be respected ... we call on both parties to respect their obligations to spare medical facilities."
Morven Murchison-Lochrie, an ICRC medical co-ordinator at the hospital, told the AFP news agency that the staff was "under acute stress, surrounded as they are by the sound of the ongoing fighting and the influx of new patients".
"Ambulances are constantly arriving, but people are also being brought in by wagon, pick-up truck, tractor and even motor scooter."
Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara, a military spokesman, said that the army was not responsible for the attacks.
"Now the LTTE is firing very desperately everywhere artillery ... one of these shells may have fallen into that area," he said.
The army has declared that rescuing civilians trapped by its offensive against the Tigers is one of its top priorities.
Mahinda Rajapaksa, the Sri Lankan president, had given the LTTE 48 hours to free trapped civilians inside the area, which the LTTE ignored.
The government said it would guarantee safety to people moving during that period, but that it could not ensure that those people who remained among the rebels would be free from danger.
Hundreds of civilians, including children, have been killed or wounded in fighting since last week, the Red Cross has said. Colombo disputes the figures.
The rebel Tamil Tigers have been fighting government forces since 1983, alleging marginalisation by Sinhalese-dominated Colombo.The group is seeking a separate homeland for ethnic Tamils in the north and east of the country. More than 70,000 people have so far been killed in the civil war.
