Surf City HostelLos Angeles, USA
This hostel is really well located, right in the middle of the hustle on Pier Avenue. For that reason though it is hard to sleep before 3 am, especially if your bedroom faces the bars. If you are on the first floor, forget about it since there is a bar downstairs with music going on until 2 am. The atmosphere is great though, very friendly people and staff, right in front of the beach. Good place to party if you are alone. If you are traveling with more people, you can get a hotel for the same $

Palmers Lodge - Hillspring at Willesden GreenLondon, England
Probably the best cost/benefit hostel I've ever been to, great staff and facilities, super clean and organized, definitely worth the tube ride. Also serve by some night buses, so no problems if you wanna party in the center.

Plug-Inn Boutique HostelParis, France
Staff simply threw away my friend's clothes since it was near the garbage and refused to give us a refund or even a discount. They also charged us wrongly. The night guy was really sullen and spoke poor English. Normal breakfast, bathroom REALLY small and with no ventilation, beds really noise. Poor security, a guy was sleeping in our bedroom even though he had booked another one, only one key per bedroom. Anyone could come in and out of the hostel without control.
Hostel Alessandro Palace & BarRome, Italy
Very good hostel, got a triple bed to share with my parents. Great bar, relatively cheap drinks, especially on happy hour, great staff, only 'bad' thing was the deposit of 5 euros for the key and 10 euros for the remote control of the TV. Anyway, one of the best until now...

Albergo La PerlaSiena, Italy
Very small bathroom, and the water leaked all over, on a triple room that was the only problem... oh, also if you\'re going by car you better call the hotel first to ask for directions, and the center can be insanely busy depending on the hour, which may complicate your way... Clean rooms, Wi-Fi for 5 euros was a little expensive but worth it...
Archi Rossi HostelFlorence, Italy
Nice young hostel, great breakfast, location could be better, but it is not that bad, everything can be done by foot if you're willing... No car parking, had to pay 15 euros for a guy to pick up the car and bring it back the next day, but he was on time so I guess it was not that bad either...
Airone Pisa ParkPisa, Italy
Clean and spacious, large rooms, good bathroom, but the heater wasn't working. Good location if your travelling by car, large parking, but a little difficult to find on the road. Overall, very good price for a good hotel, would stay again.
Youth Station Hostel - Rome -Rome, Italy
Staff totally useless, nice accomodations, comfy beds, some lockers broken and 3 of 4 computers broken. Excelent location, a 100m walk from Bologna Station and a bar on the corner that sells cheap and cold beer lol ;D Recommended, but the staff sux :/

On January 26, Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) introduced language on the Older Americans Act Reauthorization (S. 2037).

Four members of Congress - Dan Benishek (Mich.), Patrick Tiberi (Ohio), John Lewis (Ga.) and Rosa DeLauro (Conn.) - were educated by Academy staff members on the importance of medical nutrition therapy for people with prediabetes.

In addition to education, the members of Congress were asked to support the bill.
The Congressional Research Service recently released a report on "The Role of Local Food Systems in U.S. Farm Policy." This report explains that there is no established definition for a "local food," with varying meanings between consumers and producers and a wide range of farm businesses may be involved in local food production.
The House and Senate are expected take different approaches and timetables on reauthorizing the Farm Bill. The Senate Agriculture Committee has stated it will begin hearings in February and bill language should be complete in March. The House is not expected to start hearings until late March into April. This version of the bill may not be complete until May.

The February 22 webinar Bariatric Surgery: Time to Standardize Nutritional Care will present an overview of the procedures and their impact on nutritional status and present rationale for standardizing the nutritional care of bariatric patients. Where there is no empirical data, recommendations should be based on "expert opinion" and the registered dietitian is the "nutrition expert."

This is a very cute stool. It is more of an orange color, not red. I have it sitting next to a white chair, and it looks great. Very happy!
great price for a cool accent piece in my house. I'm using it as a stool but it could also be a side table. Beautiful patter with dark orange color.
Looks beautiful in my sun room with all my plants. I use it as a place to set my coffee or cold beverage while I rock and read.
I was a little thrown by the "red" color, but when it came, it looks more orange...like the picture. I am happy because orange is what I was hoping for! I love it, and it looks great on our Juliette balcony! Yea!!
This stool is gorgeous. I was thinking it could be used as a side table but it's a little too short, but it's sturdy enough to be used as a stool. The painted detail is beautiful.
Love this garden stool - the color is more of a subtle orange than red - thought I would clarify that for future buyers - it is very pretty - striking and yet not too bright - a good accent piece for a living room. Very pleased. Packed perfectly and delivery was fast.
We love this. It looks great in the garden and it creates a nice place to sit and relax. The material allows for easy cleaning just hit it with a hose. Just love it
Arrived timely, and is just as the picture shows. Very satisfied........not a sale or bargain, but I am enjoying having it on my patio.
This is just like many Asian ceramic stools offered by other high-end vendors. I highly recommend this, and it shipped out quickly. Love OVERSTOCK!
Looks great. It is working out well. Very happy with the purchase.

Cyprus Locked in Tough Talks (Update1)
Conflicting reports of progress emerged during the talks Saturday.
Late Saturday night, a finance ministry official said an accord was "very close," and would likely include a hefty tax of a fifth to a quarter of deposits over 100,000 euros at the country's troubled largest lender, Bank of Cyprus. But a banking official with knowledge of the talks said no deal was in the offing and wouldn't likely arrive before Sunday.
Both spoke on condition of anonymity because negotiations were ongoing and they were not authorized to release details.
According to a second finance ministry official, who also spoke on condition of anonymity because he's not authorized to speak about the negotiations, new laws may not be needed if negotiators opt for a "voluntary contribution" from Bank of Cyprus savings accounts above 100,000 euros, which is the insurance limit.Another option being considered is smaller tax on all bank deposits above 100,000 euros. Cyprus took significant steps toward cementing a new plan Friday night, when its lawmakers approved nine bills, including three crucial ones that will restructure ailing banks, restrict financial transactions in emergencies and set up a "solidarity fund" that will act as the vehicle for raising funds from investments and contributions. The bank restructuring will include the country's troubled second largest lender, Laiki, which suffered heavy losses after being exposed to toxic Greek debt. Cypriot banks have been shut this past week while the plan was being worked out, and are not due to reopen until Tuesday. Cash has been available through ATMs, but many run out quickly, and those machines for the troubled Laiki Bank are only dispensing 260 euros a day. Thousands of angry bank employees afraid of losing their jobs marched through the center of Nicosia to the Finance Ministry and Parliament, some with placards around their necks reading: "No to the bankruptcy of Cyprus." "We are protesting for our jobs, and jobs of all in Cyprus," bank employee Zoei Koiachi said. Worried about her job after 36 years at Laiki, Eleni Koutsourdou said lawmakers should have approved the initial plan for the 10% deposit grab for the sake of protecting the financial sector. "It's unfair. They pocketed everything and we end up paying for it," she said.

Check your logs nginx, uwsgi and mail.log. If everything looks legit there, then you're good to go.
For Clamd, you should just remove and purge it and reinstall it using the guide.
This is by far the best setup I've come up with. Everything is running really smooth and fast.
You can start by backing up baruwa's db, mailscanner.conf, baruwa.conf and baruwa.ini. If the system crashes, you'll be able to import those files back into a build for a quick restore. Otherwise, if you're running a vm, you can just export the whole vm as a backup. Therefore, you'll be able to restore it in working order, with all the settings already applied.

Student Obligations:
You are obligated to speak loudly enough for others to hear.
You are obligated to listen for understanding.
You are obligated to agree or disagree (and explain why) in response to other people's ideas.
Once the rules have been discussed, Ms. Carter consistently reminds her students of them, pointing out any infractions. Ms. Carter uses a color-coded discipline system in conjunction with these rights and obligations. Each student starts the day on green. A warning is given for misbehavior, and a further infraction results in a change to yellow. After one more warning, another infraction puts a student on red and the parent is called after school. If there is a serious infraction, she stops the class and has everyone turn to their Green Sheets to find the right or obligation that relates to that particular infraction. She then discusses that right or obligation at length with her students. Disrespectful comments get a warning. Repeat offenses get the offender a color change. Over a period of weeks, the rules become thoroughly internalized by her students and Ms. Carter rarely needs to refer to the Green Sheet. It remains a resource, however, available for review if discussions get off track.
Students know that she will keep enforcing the norms consistently, week in and week out. As a result, Ms. Carter's class is known for its good behavior. In
addition, her students appear to be willing to ask questions, put forward their ideas, and respond fully and respectfully to each other's questions. These are all signs that Ms. Carter has succeeded in making her classroom a safe place for students to engage in challenging academic thinking, problem posing, theorizing, and problem solving—by making their thinking visible to one another and to themselves.

[grabs book to refresh memory]
The RID Master, Schema Master and Domain Naming FSMO's CAN NOT be transfered back if you force transfer them to another DC. Very important (as in can screw up AD big time) DO NOT reactivate a server if you have force transfered any of these roles away from it.
If you have force transfered these roles then you will have to rebuild the DC from scratch.
Also, I'm not 100% if you can make (or should) make another server a GC if the original GC is off line and/or there are no other active GC's on the network. Does it not have to copy the data from them? Can this cause replication problems if a new GC is created and creates a new version of this data?
EDIT: just to be clear this is an issue with force transfering or siezing FSMO roles. If you cleanly transfer the roles without seizing them then you don't have this problem and AFAIK you can transfer the roles back. Of course the existing server with these roles needs to be up for you to cleanly transfer the roles.

DIY Ombre Button Monogram
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
This fun DIY Ombre Button Monogram from Lelanie Denso is a great way to decorate a little girl or boy's room. Made with felt and a variety of buttons, this is a quick and easy project that's great for using up fabric scraps and your favorite colored buttons.
- Felt or fabric pieces (with different shades that will give an ombre effect)
- Embroidery hoop (I used one with 17 cm. diameter)
- Buttons of different sizes
- Elastic ruffled trim (or any other trimming)
- Fabric glue/hot glue or any other strong glue
- Sewing machine
First, cut the felt (I used 4) into 5.5 cms If you use more felt pieces/colors, then you will have to adjust the measurement. I mased this measurement on the 17 cms (diameter) embroidery hoop which I used for this project.
Join the felt pieces by sewing them together 1/8" away from the seam. If you don't have a sewing machine, use fabric glue or any other stronger glue to attach the felt pieces together.
Now, we have one felt piece with ombre effect. Pretty!
Fit the felt in the embroidery hoop. Cut excess felt. I left 1/2" so I could glue it to the hoop using hot glue.
I traced a nice letter A (my daughter's initial) on a felt piece and cut it.
Glue the monogram to the felt in the hoop and glue on the felt monogram buttons of different sizes to fill the letter A.
I used buttons of different sizes and shades. I even used small rose beads to fill smaller spaces.
I glued an elastic ruffled gingham trim on the hoop.
Hide the raw edge by folding once 1/8" down and apply glue.
I used gingham trim to hang the hoop art on my daughter's bedroom's door. She loved it!
- It was so easy, quick and fun to make!

Big Tent Judaism Initiative Comes to Hartford, CT Thanks to the Jewish Community Foundation
This week, JOI staff will be in the Greater Hartford, CT area consulting with over 30 Jewish organizations, made possible by the Jewish Community Foundation's New Initiative Grants Program. Over the next three days, Executive Director Rabbi Kerry M. Olitzky, Associate Executive Director Paul Golin, and Senior Director of Training Eva Stern will visit with staff from local Jewish organizations, including area synagogues and community centers to help them affect positive change in the Greater Hartford Jewish community by ensuring that their institutions are open and welcoming.
The first step will be a presentation this evening, Tuesday, June 11th at the Mandell JCC at 6:30 PM. JOI staff will be presenting a community outreach scan on how welcoming and inclusive Greater Hartford Jewish community organizations are. The next step will be individual consultations with each organization over the next few days, and continuing work in the months to come.
The Big Tent Judaism Initiative, a program of the Jewish Outreach Institute, takes its lead from the values and vision of our Biblical forbearers Abraham and Sarah's tent, which was open on four sides to welcome all who approach. Individuals and organizations that practice a Big Tent Judaism seek to engage, support and advocate for all those who would cast their lot with the Jewish people, regardless of prior knowledge or background. For more information on Big Tent Judaism, and to join the coalition of over 500 organizations, click here.

Bard's Model United Nations Team Competes in Northeast Regional Model Arab League
: The Bard College Model United Nations team participated in the Northeast Regional Model Arab League tournament at Northeastern University in Boston, November 7–9. The conference—sponsored by the National Council on U.S.–Arab Relations—simulates the structure, proceedings, and committees of the Arab League, based in Egypt and representing 22 countries across the Middle East and North Africa. Bard students represented Egypt, Libya, and Saudi Arabia on topics including defense, environmental and social issues, and Palestinian affairs. Bard Model UN president Gabriel Matsakis '15 served as head delegate at the conference and played the role of a member of the Egyptian cabinet. He was awarded Outstanding Cabinet Member for his excellent work. Alison Brundrett '16 and Erind Disha '16 won Honorable Mention awards for their work representing Egypt on the Palestinian Affairs committee. "This conference takes students beyond the dramatic headlines that dominate the news about the Middle East and allows them to tackle the details of a wide variety of issues in the region," said faculty adviser James Ketterer. "The students learn about things like water resources, refugees, and education, along with defense and diplomacy—all while having to deeply understand the country they are representing."
History Professor Richard Aldous's Bestselling Biography of Ryanair Founder Tony Ryan Published in United Kingdom
: Bard history professor Richard Aldous's acclaimed account of the life of Tony Ryan, founder of Europe's biggest airline, Ryanair, was published in the United Kingdom on November 3. Originally published in August 2013, the book was lauded as "a masterful job ... with a highly readable and compelling style" (the
of Ireland) and was a
Sunday Times
bestseller. Richard Aldous says, "What made Tony Ryan exceptional was that he turned the dreams he shared with his generation into reality. That came about not because he wanted to make a fortune—although he was happy when he did—but because he had the vision to see where the market was imperfect, the courage to stake his claim, and the tenacity to see the job through. In that regard Tony Ryan was the epitome of what it meant to be an entrepreneur."

text: 4.5 A Good Start but Missing what Made the First Season Special drlowdon | 02/05/2011 | See all drlowdon's reviews (468) The first season of Prison Break was a breath of fresh air in the ever repetitive TV schedules with edge of your seat moments every episode and this second season starts in much the same vein.We initially follow the exploits of each of the escaped convicts and are introduced to the ingenious methods of FBI Agent Mahone who is tasked with capturing them. Unusually for a TV show Agent Mahone is every bit the equal of the main star Micheal Schofield and this makes for some excellent television.Unfortunately as the series progresses we become more and more wrapped up in the slightly dull conspiracy behind Lincolns original imprisonment and we start to lose what made the first series so entertaining and so different to everything else on TV. It seems as though outside the prison walls Prison Break is just not the same show.

Or, the Anthropocentrism of Western PaganismOccasionally, within pagan circles, I happen across a troubling component of the western centric world view, and one that I find particularly antithetical to pagan values: anthropocentrism. The belief that human-persons are the most significant species on the planet, plays out within paganism in subtle and tricky ways. Most of us would balk at the outright notion that our species is superior, yet I often hear how humans have a divine role as m … [Read more...]

Urban Witchcraft: The Power of Place in the City
This article is a reprisal of one of my first on Patheos. It's my "Top 10 Tips" for cultivating a sense of Place in an urban environment; a feat that did not come easy for me. I was reared on a family farm with hundreds of acres as my garden. I roamed barefoot from sun-up till sun-down, engaging in more risk-taking behavior than my parents would ever want to know about! Snake spoke to me, coyote sang his eerie song, and bobcat warned me about what happens when you meet Other, out past your be … [Read more...]
Urban Witchcraft: The Power of Words
There was a time, not so long ago, when information was shared by word of mouth. Most of us were illiterate. That word has such a nasty taste in the mouth now, doesn't it? It conjures all sorts of images, from gross ignorance to the cruel acts committed by those same ignorant individuals. I don't like those conjurings, so I'm going to make-up my own reference phrase (which may have been thought of already by scholars who also ponder such things). Let's begin again…There was a time, not … [Read more...]
Urban Witchcraft: The Power of Rot
In Ireland, the chthonic energy of decay is experienced as Crom Dubh, the dark, bent one who takes the grain under the ground. He was a sacrificial god heavily associated with Lughnasadh. In fact, while many Irish people may never have heard of the 'festival of Lughnasadh' (apart from the movie), they have certainly heard of Crom Dubh's Day: Dé Domhnaigh Crum-Dubh. This is a day of pilgrimage to the high places: a custom maintained with the yearly climb of Croagh Patrick. More anciently, Cro … [Read more...]

Where are the Women in the National Anthem: The Case of Cameroon
- Comments (7)
- Recommended (1)
- View profile
Like any nation on this planet, its national anthem is symbolic. A national ritual representing the values and beliefs of that nation. The reason it is sung during most official and some informal occasions.
The Cameroon Anthem is however no exemption to these national rites. For it is sung countless time in one day, especially during school devotions, or in the military camps/ barracks or each moment the country's flag is raised up. Asides from the college and military environment, it is also a must-sang song before any official and semi-official events would start or closed. Therefore, making it becomes a national mantra which is always incarnated.
Though Cameroon anthem exists in both French and English, it is worth noting that the content is different, except for the rhythm which is the same.
Personally I find the Cameroon national anthem more complicated than what it implies. Nonetheless, my main concern is not about its multifaceted versions but how it fosters equal representation and integration.
In my view, the Cameroon national anthem whether the French or English version privileges maleness; I am referring to the ascribed attributes of masculinity which represents 'manhood' to be - power, authority and influence, with the she being the subordinate.
For example, in both versions (French and English), the only mention of women is found in one of the last verses which is seldom sang. –and there it advocates to "Foster, for Mother Africa, a loyalty". -
While, in the first verse of the anthem, the most or commonly sang rhyme glorifies maleness, as legendary visionaries and liberation fighters. And also on how no tongue can ever appreciate the greatness and wonders of their works. For Cameroonians and all will work to make his sons and men prosperous.
Thus the reason our national struggle for equal rights and equal opportunities for all, especially between women and men successes are slow, because the national mantra empowers maleness to maintain power.
What do you think?
True, but
Dear Zioh
Sometimes, touching upon itself can be a symbolic move forward. So, by spotting the absent women in the anthem you have kind of broke a taboo. Congrats on that and thanks for letting us know,as well as provoking us to look for similar emptiness elsewhere.
But, I would also go one step ahead and ask, what is the solution here? The songs were obviously not written today (for that matter, there are hundreds of other literature where women are missing), and since they were first written, the world has changed, at least its women have. Does that mean we demand a new national anthem? or an edited version?
Just trying to know your opinion.Because to come up with a solution adds more brilliance to highlighting a problem. And I know you have that in you to be a provider of a solution!

Good luck in this journey sister.

Hi Ziwoh,, thank you for
Hi Ziwoh,, thank you for letting us know about . I appriciate your courage to raise such strong voice and good luck for your journey to change !!!
Live and Let Live
Great post
You young lady are a very perceptive individual. Indeed we reinforce negative perceptions through things that we never really take note of such as national anthems yet we could also foster positive mindsets and attitudes towards women and their value in society if we include these things. Great post. I miss you :-(

In the May newsletter of Coeur d'Alene Charter Academy, principal Nicklay addresses Common Core:
" … the newly-adopted standards don't tell us what or how to teach. The state has so far implemented only the math and language arts standards. If you take the time to read the standards, you will find nothing that dictates what materials or techniques teachers are to employ to get their students to proficiency. I encourage you to view the standards on the Department of Education's website (http://www.sde.idaho.gov/site/ICS/index.html). Regardless of the source of the standards or the process by which they were adopted, there's nothing in them to cause us concern. I'll let you know if that changes."

Can a Jew believe in Jesus?
I was accosted at the beach today by a guy from Jews for Jesus. He offered me a New Testament in Yiddish and said that many Jews have been "saved" by accepting Jesus as the messiah. I just ignored him. Then I saw a big ad in the newspaper from the same people. My question: Can a Jew believe in Jesus?
Of course a Jew can believe in Jesus. Just like a vegetarian can enjoy a rump steak, a peace activist can join a violent demonstration, and a dictator who preaches martyrdom can surrender himself to his enemies. As long as logic and clear thinking are suspended, anything makes sense!
I think your response to that missionary was the best one - to ignore him. Missionising is not a new phenomenon. Certain Christian sects believe that their messiah will only return when the Jews accept him. Throughout history Jews have been threatened with death, torture and expulsion if they don't convert. More recently, missionaries targeted the weak of our community - the elderly, new immigrants, and the underprivileged - in an attempt to exploit their vulnerability. All these attempts have had little or no success. Whether religious or not, Jews are reluctant to give up their Jewishness.
So they came up with a new ploy. Rather than demand conversion, they offered Jews to remain Jewish, and even "complete" their Jewishness by accepting Jesus. Thus Jews for Jesus was born.
This is a movement of non-Jews who pose as Jews by taking on Jewish names. They do usually have a token Jewish member, who is invariably either ignorant of Judaism at best or psychologically imbalanced at worst. They are a sham.
All religions are free to present their beliefs in the open market of ideas. But if they have to resort to slimy tactics like Jews for Jesus does, then they obviously have nothing to offer a thinking person.
Editor's Note: Visit Jews for Judaism for a comprehensive counter-missionary handbook.
As a side note...It is worth discussing the pressures on Judaism through the lens of sociology and history rather than dogma. I don't see how the above arguments about Jews for Jesus has any bearing on if a Jew decides to acclaim Jesus. A cursory view of the many Jewish sects in the world would garner more heresy than following someone who, to paraphrase previous comments, brought Torah law to the gentiles. It makes much more sense to view the problem brought up by Aron Moss through a much less, and needless, snarkiness and instead view the issue through the context of the 1st and 2nd century Jewish wars which alienated Christianity away from Judaism.
Los Angeles
So said the Chinese philosopher more than 2,000 years ago.
There are many different races, but we are all the same under the skin.
Diversity can lead to tribalism, and too much individualism to anarchy. After all, it is the same God we are all praying to.
One day, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism and Judaism with unite to become one universal belief. We will all be better for it.
Blackpool Lancs
Yes, Christians have done bad things in disobedience to their faith, but Western Civilisation, probably the greatest source of freedom and benefit in history, is founded in Christianity which, in turn, is founded in Judaism. I do believe Christianity, and in turn Western civilisation, is diminished without Judaism.
I come here to Chabad every day and read the various articles by the Rebbe and commentary.
Much of it is aimed squarely at Jews but much of it speaks to a wider audience. This is what I mean by Jews being confident they have something to say to everyone. It's not proselytising Judaism, it's just realising you have something spiritually unique that believing gentiles see as a source of benefit. I hope Jews will one day perceive this.
All the best.
Separation of powers, by the way, was a Jewish concept that was firmly established long before Jesus, in the form of the division between king and priest.
Many have suffered at the hands of Christians, particularly Jews, but we may have entered into a new epoch of increased understanding and tolerance. However, that can always change at a moment's notice -- as the recent rise in European anti-semitism has demonstrated.
Los Angeles
The original question was can a Jew believe in Jesus?
I think a Jew can believe in the historically attested fact of his existence.
I think a Jew can accept that he was and died a Jew. He was not the first Christian.
I think a Jew might be able to accept that the less legalistic faith he inspired ultimately brought billions of gentiles to morals as founded in Torah.
A Jew cannot by definition believe he was the Messiah.
Consider where Europe was prior to Christianity. Pagan, Roman and Greek deities, druids and mistletoe. What would Europe look like had we not moved on from that to something monotheistic and essentially Jewish? I doubt we would have industrialised. I doubt we'd have discovered the Americas. All our modern courts and institutions were founded on the Jewish compulsion to create them. Separation of powers is a Jewish concept given to us through Jesus. Secularism was unknown to pagans. I've run out of characters....
Moral truth, if not relativistic, is founded squarely on Torah. That much is obvious to you and to believing Jews, but not as obvious to Christians who embrace the replacement theology promulgated in the NT, in Paul's writings particularly. The problem -- or the truth -- is that one cannot ultimately get around Torah. Even if a Christian believes that the Law does not save, sinfulness and morality is defined there.
Los Angeles
I really do.
The march of secular materialism in Europe has been relentless and leaves a spiritual void of exactly the apathetic people you describe. Entire societies become 'post christian' in a generation. That void will be filled by something and we don't know what it will be. History suggests personality cults, consumerism, cynicism posing as rationality, cultural weakness. Whatever it is, it is unlikely to be good.
Judaism, G-d's first revealed, has something to say about this to Jews and to all of us. I firmly believe this.
Example. Rabbi Lord Sacks over in the UK is a man whose writings everybody in search of G-d should read.
I started as an atheist and have come from that to some understanding of G-d and I don't believe G-d works in human logical ways. This is the mistake atheists make - they assume if G-d loved us G-d would do things like a human would - e.g. flick ISIL into the sea.
G-d doesn't give literally true theologies as a human would. Judaism has various branches, the Talmud etc. Each authored by men. Likewise Christianity's new testament was written by men decades after Jesus's ministry and church doctrine is the product of christian sanhedrins
What IMO you can find in a theology is a moral truth leading to G-d. People find G-d through Judaism. We have to assume that if Judaism dies people who would find God through it may be lost. Therefore we should protect it.
This outlook is not relativist, because morals remain absolute. And Christian and Jewish morals are shared.
Which leads me to your question as to why Judaism shies away from seeking converts. The Torah indicates that there were many converts living in ancient Israel, and subsequent times saw many converts. But that disappeared with the rise of Christian antisemitism.
Proselytism is not the key to our numbers, however. The ones we need to convert the most are Jews themselves -- the uneducated (in scripture), unaffiliated, and apathetic. They often become alienated -- or intermarry, and within three generations the 3000 year Jewish lineage ends in those families.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Authorities say they found about 100 pounds of gift-wrapped marijuana in suitcases that were to be loaded onto a flight from Los Angeles International Airport to Atlanta.
City News Service reports the marijuana was found Wednesday in four checked suitcases.
Transportation Safety Administration officials say it was wrapped in gift paper covered with a cupcake print.
They estimate its value at about $300,000.
TSA agent Nico Melendez says the people who checked the bags never bothered to get on the AirTran flight to Atlanta.
Authorities are still searching for the bags' owners.

Man creates his own solar-powered death ray
If you want to watch a man melt coins, ignite gasoline, cook an egg, boil water and burn hotdogs, then just go ahead and skip the words here and check out the video below.
If you're curious why this man is doing these things, read on. It's because Grant Thompson had a 13-year old Toshiba 50-inch flat screen TV and nothing to do with it. Well, nothing but turn it into a solar-powered death ray, that is.
Thompson took the TV and cracked it open and tore through layer after layer until he reached the plastic sheet that he calls a "giant virgin Fresnel lens." By hoisting them on a wooden frame, he managed to make it focus the sun's ray's in a miniscule point (like a magnifying glass).
That spot reaches 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit, which allows him to do everything listed in the first paragraph. But writing about this doesn't truly capture the fun of having a solar-powered death ray in your backyard. So check out the video below.
