Jackie Robinson (1919-1972) is legendary for his pioneering role as the first black professional baseball player in the major leagues. He was born in Cairo, Georgia, on January 31, 1919 and raised in Pasadena, California. Robinson's success was foretold at the University of California at Los Angeles, where he became the first student to earn letters in four sports: baseball, basketball, football and track. He then played football for the Los Angeles Bulldogs, before serving in the army during World War II. After the war, Robinson played baseball in the Negro Leagues for the Kansas City Monarchs. His talent was soon recognized by Branch Rickey, general manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, who signed Robinson on August 28, 1945 to join the Montreal Royals in the International League. The Royals were the Dodgers' top farm team.

The Chevrolet Silverado HD, Ford Super Duty and Dodge Ram compete every year for weight rating superiority and bragging rights.The 2013 Chevrolet Silverado fares well with Super Duty and has Ram lightly beat on conventional towing and payload maximums, but the Ram bests Ford and Chevrolet by more than three tons on max fifth-wheel or gooseneck ratings.
2013 Silverado HD can be configured to carry 7,222 pounds in 3500 dual-rear wheel configuration or 4,212 pounds in 2500.Properly equipped, a Silverado 3500 can tow a trailer of 23,100 pounds.(Note: No full-size pickup can carry peak payload and tow peak rating simultaneously.)
Chevrolet Silverado HD was completely redesigned for the 2007 model year and re-engineered for 2011.Changes for the 2013 model year are minimal.Among them: a 2500 Extended Cab CNG model, the full 397-hp rated Duramax option on Chassis Cabs and box-delete pickups, and new Deep Ruby and Blue Topaz paints.
The 6.0-liter V8 gas engine and 6-speed automatic are fully capable, but the big towing numbers require the 6.6-liter Duramax diesel with 397 hp and more than twice the torque of the gas V8.Everything in the suspension, steering, brakes, frame and ancillary systems is built to complement the diesel power.As a result, anyone with $40,000 and a driver's license can buy a pickup capable of towing an 11-ton trailer.
Although it's a work truck, the Silverado HD offers conveniences owners may now need as part of their work or their hobby, including Bluetooth, USB inputs, rearview cameras, navigation, and OnStar.
A choice of interiors is available, with different dashboards rather than merely varied finishes.You can have it sweep-out simple, or served up with heated leather, navigation, and an expensive-looking opaque shade for the moonroof.Regular cabs are roomy enough for three, Extended Cabs are ideal for younger families, while the Crew Cab is suitable for work gangs or full-grown families or lots of interior cargo space.
A well trimmed Silverado HD is the most car-like of big pickups in driving feel, yet it carries and tows like other heavy-duty pickups.With enough cab, box, trim, powertrain choices and option sheets to fill many pages, there should be an example to fit your needs and preferences.Alternatives are limited to the Ford Super Duty and Ram Heavy Duty pickups, as well as the mechanically identical GMC Sierra HD.
The 2013 Silverado HD offers five wheelbases in 2500 (3/4-ton) trim.It comes as a Regular Cab long bed (8 feet), an Extended Cab with standard bed (6-foot, 7-inch) or long bed, or Crew Cab with standard bed or long bed.The 3500-series (1-ton) is all long-bed except for a 3500 Crew Cab standard bed with single rear wheels.All dual rear wheel models have the long bed.Some models are available with a pickup box-delete for mounting an aftermarket setup or your own.Fuel capacities range from 26 to 36 gallons on most versions.
Standard Silverado HD power is a 6.0-liter gasoline V8 rated 360 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque in 2500 pickups and 322 hp, 380 pound-feet in all 3500 and box-delete 2500.The 6.0-liter comes solely with a 6-speed automatic transmission and 3.73:1 or 4.10:1 axle ratio.
A 6.6-liter diesel (LML) is an option ($8395) for nearly every model and rated at 397 hp and 765 lb-ft of torque.The diesel comes with the superb Allison 6-speed automatic transmission and 3.73:1 ratio.The diesel is B20-biodiesel approved.
Three trim levels are available, WT, LT and LTZ, though not every configuration is available.LTZ is limited to Extended and Crew Cab models.Expect to add $2,000-$3,000 to move from regular cab to Extended or Extended to Crew Cab, about $200 from standard bed to long bed, and about $3,000 for 4WD.
Silverado HD LT versions are upgraded with cloth upholstery, carpeting (though the WT floor is available), 40/20/40 front seat with locking console storage, split-fold rear seat, AM/FM/XM/CD/MP3 RDS stereo, OnStar with six months' service, aluminum wheels, power heated mirrors, power windows, power door locks, visor vanity mirror/lights, side moldings and electric-shift for 4WD.LT options include everything available on the WT not already standard, plus a convenience package ($545) with adjustable pedals, rear park assist, universal remote, remote start, electric rear window defrost), bucket seats and console; an interior plus package with 6-way power driver seat, USB input, steering wheel audio controls, Bluetooth, locking EZ-lift tailgate, fog lamps, dual-zone climate control, backup camera in mirror, navigation with rearview camera, power passenger seat (3500 Crew), steering wheel controls, power sliding rear window ($250), power heated camper mirrors, 20-inch wheels and tires, locking differential, Z71 off-road package and skid plates.
Silverado HD LTZ upgrades to leather upholstery, 10-way power heated front seats and two-person driver memory, dual-zone climate control, Bose DVD audio system, Bluetooth, console, auto-dimming mirrors, steering wheel controls, fog lamps, paint-matched trim, power folding mirrors w/signals, 18-inch polished forged aluminum wheels, locking differential, trailer equipment and integrated trailer brake controller.LTZ options include a universal garage door opener, locking EZ-Lift tailgate, adjustable pedals, rear park assist, rear wheelhouse liners, navigation/camera, rear-seat entertainment system ($1,480), moonroof ($995), power sliding rear window, power heated camper mirrors and 20-inch wheels on 2500.
Optional on all trim levels are roof marker lamps ($55), skid plates ($150), snow-plow prep for 4WD and camper/fifth-wheel wiring ($35).Dual 125-amp alternators ($270), fast-idle switch ($200) and radiator covers ($55) for cold states are optional on diesel models.
Safety equipment includes frontal airbags, front seat belt pretensioners, and StabiliTrak on single-rear wheel models.Optional equipment includes front-side airbags and front side-curtain airbags (2500), OnStar, backup cameras and integrated trailer brake controller.
From the windshield back the body panels haven't changed for five years; only different wheels and some minor differences to the rear styling show.The front of the truck was revised for the 2011 model year, and the result made the truck look bigger, with a big grille and cooling duct in the bumper to cool the more powerful diesel.The hood is taller than pre-2011 models and has domes on the outer sides, along with faux louvers to carry the Vortec or Duramax engine badges.
Dual-rear-wheel pickups use a sheetmetal pickup box with integrated fenders for the double rear wheels, resulting in a smoother look and finish (though potentially higher repair bills if you ding one).Where not standard as they are on duallies, the roof marker lamps, one each side and three in a pod in the center, are optional.The single rear wheel trucks have slightly flared rear fenders that mimic those of the dual-rear-wheel versions.
Styling differences distinguish the Chevrolet Silverado HD from the GMC Sierra HD.
With the big chrome crossbar and bow-tie logo the Silverado HD heavy-duty pickup is immediately recognized as a Chevrolet and maintains visual relationships to the Silverado 1500 light-duty pickup.Ram and Chevy owners may argue whose bodywork is the sleeker; the Ford Super Duty is the squarest without argument.
Useful features include an optional tailgate lock and lift assist (EZ-Lift) that helps make the heavy tailgate feel like it weighs a lot less (don't make the mistake of trying to remove it yourself), dual-element towing mirrors that can be folded in at the touch of a button, various cargo management systems, fifth-wheel prep, and a 2.5-inch receiver hitch (with insert for Class III/IV two-inch setups).
The Silverado HD matches up against other heavy-duty pickups in most dimensions as they all carry the proverbial 4x8 sheet of plywood flat in long-box models.However, the Silverado tends to have a slightly lower roofline and higher load deck, especially on 4WD models, worth noting if you visit commercial garages or climb in the bed a lot.
We found no obvious difference in build quality between the cabin designs, and the apparent level of luxury imparted in LTZ models varies by interior color.Materials are mission-appropriate, and on the WT version that implies easy-to-clean plastic.In fact, the only finish item we noted not up to par was on the molding flash at the seam on the center console in high-line models.
Seats in the Silverado are supportive and are easily adjusted.A tilt wheel is standard, closer to the seat centerline than previous-generation models, and adjustable pedals are available.If you plan on accessorizing or adding switchgear for auxiliary lights, remote winch control, a CB radio or similar, the lower-level cabin makes a better blank; the LTZ looks like one of those cabins you just don't want to mess up.The Ford Super Duty offers an optional set of upfitter switches.
Outward visibility is good because you're nearly six feet off the ground and the low-profile dash gives a good view over it.The hood lines make defining the front corners for close-quarter maneuvering or tight trails a bit more difficult.The telescoping mirrors and the available rearview camera, which we recommend getting, make up for anything you can't see out the back window.
The Extended Cab back seat is suited for small adults and kids.For good access the side doors swing 170 degrees for easier loading in tight parking spaces.And the windows in those small doors roll down (completely) for more comfort and venting options.Models with the moonroof option have a solid shade rather than partially opaque so a broiling mid-day sun does not seep through.
Crew Cab rear-seat accommodations are better, able to handle most adults.There is no center headrest and the outer ones rise only a few inches, so taller riders have nothing between their head and the glass.While the Silverado HD Crew Cab is big, the Ford Super Duty Crew Cab and Ram's MegaCab both have more room in back.
All controls are plainly laid out, the only nitpick being the number of similarly shaped and sized black buttons on loaded models, some of which large-fingered individuals might find hard to push without hitting the adjacent one by mistake.Instrumentation is complete, responsive, and easy to see at a glance.Upper models have a driver information center for trip computer data, warning messages and the like; since it's smart enough to know a trailer is connected we think it should also automatically switch off the rear parking assist.
Dual-temperature climate control supporting a side-to-side delta of 30 degrees (Fahrenheit) is offered on many models (diesels get a fast warm-up function).Heated and ventilated front seats and rear-seat entertainment are among popular options.
The navigation system is offered on a wider array of models, and you can get a rearview camera without navigation.The best rearview camera is, of course, the more expensive one that comes with the navigation system.A rearview camera can help you spot that short post, or perhaps a child, that might not otherwise see.It will help speed the parking process.It can also help you line up your tow ball below your trailer hitch, greatly reducing the number of times you have to jump in and out of the truck.Turning on the navigation system automatically switches on the audio system as with a Mercedes, press mute to turn the volume all the way down.
OnStar turn-by-turn navigation is included, though there is a monthly service charge.We've had good experiences with the OnStar operators and recommend it.If you get in a wreck that sets the airbag off, the OnStar operator will come on over the speaker system and ask you whether you're okay.If you don't respond, the operator will direct emergency responders to your exact location, handy when no one notices you just plummeted down a ravine.OnStar can direct police to your car if it's stolen, unlock the doors if you lock yourself out.OnStar Hands-Free Calling is available, along with traffic reports, weather updates, stock updates.
The Duramax diesel is a 6.6-liter V8 with 397 hp and 765 lb-ft of torque coupled to an Allison 6-speed automatic transmission.The Duramax and Allison add about $8400 to the bottom line, but the diesel engine more than doubles the torque of the gas engine, the payoff being superior towing ability, better at-altitude performance and better fuel economy: We managed 10 mpg in a dually crew cab pulling an 8000-pound trailer through the interstates of Appalachia, 14.5 mpg with a single-rear truck pulling a much smaller, more aerodynamic box trailer.Over the same stretch, a single-rear-wheel Crew Cab, gas engine, without a trailer averaged 12.2 mpg with the same personnel count on board.Note the diesel does use a DEF (diesel exhaust fluid) additive that must be replenished (usually at service intervals, and available at many service stations and most truck stops); Ford's Power Stroke and Ram's Cummins uses a similar system.The Duramax is B20-biodiesel approved.
A Silverado HD drives heavy, as in a solid feel and deliberate control inputs.It is confident empty or with a maximum load on board, the added frame stiffness making suspension tuning easier for GM engineers.We drove a Regular Cab empty over some marginal roads and the ride wasn't punishing at all.On longer cabs a special body mount is used at the back for even better ride quality, but as is always the case the wrong wheelbase on the wrong set of expansion joints can still result in some bobbing; this situation is not unique to GM pickups.
The Silverado HD is not a play truck for cowboy posers, it's designed to work.Everything underneath was changed in 2011 with a focus on doing more work.If you want light controls, quiet, and a smoother ride get a half-ton pickup.Standard tires on Silverado 3500 dually are 17-inch Michelins, but 2500-series trucks offer a choice of 18-inch Bridgestone/Firestone or 20-inch Goodyears; our choice for ride, quiet, work, and replacement cost are the 17- or 18-inch wheels and tires.
As the only heavy-duty pickups with independent front suspension on 4WD models, the 4WD Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD steer with more precision and absorb front-end road impacts better than do the Ram and Super Duty.GM has an adjustable trim height for the torsion bars to adjust ride height for added weight such as a snow plow, but most torsion bar vehicles are adjustable.Any Silverado HD may be equipped with a snow-plow package but we'd check with your dealer about front-end alignment if adding a camper or plow for many miles.
Brakes are all new with bigger vented discs and better pedal feel and reaction than prior years.If you tend to drive quickly note that empty HD pickups don't generally stop any better, often worse, than those carrying some load on the rear wheels.
Single-rear-wheel models have StabiliTrak electronic stability control.The system includes hill-start assist, which means the truck won't roll backward on an incline if you take your foot off the brake to put it on the gas.Generations of automatic-owners who left-foot brake may never notice the feature.
An integrated trailer brake controller is available to slow your trailer much more comfortably and more controlled than most aftermarket controllers can.Be sure to get it.The diesel has a built-in exhaust brake function (matching Ford and Ram now) and the transmission has grade control logic that will, with cruise control or a tap of the brake pedal, work automatically to maintain or slow your speed.If you push the right buttons the truck will more or less take care of everything else.
A 2.5-inch receiver hitch allows conventional trailer ratings to 18,000 pounds, eclipsing any competitive pickups at post time; the maximum for fifth-wheel trailers on properly equipped Silverado HD models is now 23,100 pounds.The strongest Silverado HD will haul more than 30,000 pounds of truck, cargo, people and trailer.As with virtually all full-size pickup ratings, the HD with the highest payload may not pull the heaviest trailer, and it won't do max load and trailer at the same time.

A couple of weeks have past since the World Championships and we are now taking an opportunity to look back at the biggest World Championships in the history of ITF with over 1,000 black belts competing. We take this opportunity to chat to the Chiarman of the Organising Committee, Mr. Paco Ferrando, who undertook the task of leading the team to organise this historical event.
What are your feelings looking back at the ITF World Championships that had over 1,000 black belts coming from 60 countries and all continents?
At the beginning we expected to get 800 competitors for us this was a great number of competitors but in September when the competition was coming closer and closer we saw that day by day more countries and teams were joining the tournament and we were very proud when we saw that we crossed the line of over 1000 competitors and we became the biggest ITF World Championship ever held.
.From the organization teams point of view we have tried to help all the countries to get the information they requested in the correct time, trying to make it easier for them to meet all the requirements, and to be able to join the ITF Worlds Championship.
What are your most memorable moments from the championships?
It is too difficult to say one moment, when I look back I remember some special moments. When we started the tournament all the teams were excited, and pleased to be there participating in the WC, the first day when everyone came to the stadium the people came to me and said "well done, this is what we expect for our ITF Championships", "Fantastic hall, and it seems that will be a very good tournament", there were many nice words from all giving us congratulations and thanks, this was very special when you see that all your work done during long build up to the event finally has come to fruition and we have reached our goal.
Of course that there was some others, the opening ceremony with all delegations and countries present, the presentation for first time of some countries in one ITF Championship, the level of the competitors and the quality of the matches, the presidents speech and of course the special visit of some very special guests.
Organising the biggest event on the ITF's calendar takes massive work. Can you give us on overview of the work involved leading up to the championships, the main tasks, the people involved behind the scenes, the day to day preparation that people do not see but are key components in making this championships a success?
Since the ITF gave us the confidence to host the World Championships, we started first of all to build the team to work on these World championships. Behind the scenes there are nearly 75 volunteers that have worked with us, each one on their own tasks, making it easier for us to complete all the work, and of course that with out any of them the organization could not work in the same way.
Just to give you an idea, we started working in April 2012, in the Euros in Slovenia Master Viudes and myself got the idea for the poster and just when we came back home we started working with that, we saw maybe 20 different options of logos and designs and finally we decided on one different, never seen before idea, and we expected that the people would like it. In October 2012 we presented the big poster in Brighton during the World Cup and everyone was giving us compliments about it, this was the first step where we created expectation for the event by giving information in a very visual and impacting way. When we came back from the World Cup we started working with the ITF Director, Grandmaster Bos, the Tournament and Umpire Committees of the ITF, the AETF committee responsible for the online registration, and our local teams and committees to prepare the information for the event and the website.
After the information was ready and all delegations were emailing us and asking for some details for their delegation we started to work hard with our head organization team, we divided the team work into several areas; administrative, organizational, building, protocol and press.
All the teams worked very hard to make it possible to have a very successful and the biggest ITF World Championships in our History.
You and FEST have great experience in organising a World Cup and several European Championships in the past, how did these past experiences help this time around?
Yes, FEST has hosted the Euros three times (one Junior an two times Junior and senior) and one time the ITF World Cup, and this experience helped us a lot in building the organising structure and of course past experiences helped us not to make the same mistakes as before but this time to create an event that surpassed everyone's expectations. Experience is always a key in everything we do.
Once the championships started what was your role and the role of the committee?
15 days before the tournament I said to all of the team , from my experience the biggest work and effort has already been done , now there is no chance to go back, and there are a few days to reach our goal that we have aiming for for a long time . Our work was 75% complete when the competition started and after that everything is easier once it is up and running.
Our Role was to prepare the sports hall and all details required by the committees, we tried to help and make the work of the committees easier and I can say on reflection that we did.
One of the most important things is to be always ready to improvise in any moment to solve any unexpected events. From my experience even when you try to have all details of the organization ready, there are always changes in the last moments or on the spot and you have improvise and find a solution. You must be ready always to move!!
What were the biggest challenges, what have you learned most from this experience?
In this kind of huge events you always learn a lot. When you have the experience in these events it always makes you open your eyes and learn. Each time an event is different and each time we learn a lot .
The biggest challenge was to make this big event with over 1000 participants successful and to make sure that all delegations enjoyed their visit to our country.
Any final words or thoughts?
On behalf of our team and I would like to thank the ITF to give us the opportunity to organize the biggest ITF World Championship of our history and to all delegations to trust us with the organization
We hope that with this successful event we will have helped to build the ITF Taekwon-Do community one step forward.

- Larkspur Ferry at 'crossroads:' Ridership outgrowing parking
Changes are likely coming to the Larkpur Ferry Terminal, including added ferry service, a shuttle bus from the Ross Valley and paid parking as the system grapples with its growing ridership stimulated by a rebounding economy.
Larkspur ferry ridership is growing at a rate of about 6 to 8 percent when compared recent months to the same period last year, according to ferry officials. There are about 5,300 daily weekday riders, though that figure has reached 5,800 on certain days in the past two months.
The growing ridership has led to crowded boats and a dearth of parking during peak commuter periods.
To help relieve the pressure, Larkspur ferry officials are now looking at adding a seventh morning commute run at 7:30 a.m.
"We are trying to figure out ways to accommodate the growing ridership and adding service is an obvious one," said Mary Currie, Golden Gate Bridge district spokeswoman.
It would be part a nine-month demonstration project that would begin Sept. 3. The plan will be heard Thursday by the district's Transportation Committee and could get final approval by the full bridge board Friday.
The pilot project would also include a shuttle service during commute hours connecting the Ross Valley/Sir Francis Drake Boulevard corridor to the ferry terminal to help relieve parking. It would have five runs from the Ross Valley in the morning and six return trips in the evening. It would also begin Sept. 3 and be free to ferry riders. The added ferry and shuttle would cost the district about $540,000 over the life of the pilot program.
On the parking front, ferry planners are working with the Ross Valley Sanitary District and Marin Country Mart to use their land near the terminal for commuters.
The district is also looking at conducting an analysis of charging a $1 or $2 daily parking fee, as well as studying a monthly prepaid pass. A paid parking program would go into place in January and could generate up to $417,000 annually, although the cost of a fee collection system has not been determined.
A member of the district's Ferry Passengers Advisory Committee was not completely sold on the plan.
"I would be concerned about losing passengers if they charge for parking," said Dwight Steeves of San Rafael. "You also may see people trying to park up and down Sir Francis Drake Boulevard (outside of the terminal)."
The district will also look again at construction of a parking structure. An old proposal called for a 969-space structure, which would net the district an additional 569 spaces because it would be built in the existing lot atop 400 spaces. It would cost about $25 million.
Contact Mark Prado via email at email@example.com
The Golden Gate Bridge district's Transportation Committee will consider changes to the Larkspur Ferry when it meets at 10 a.m. Thursday at the Toll Plaza Administration Building in San Francisco.

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.

that repeated Pres. Obama's call in August for Assad to step down, as she
illustrated that Bashar Al Assad must leave from power. Clintona**s
statements were issued the same day as the US State Department's
announcement that US Ambassador Robert Ford is returning to Syria. The
State Departmenta**s official announcement explained that the return of
Ford to Damascus is one of the most effective ways to show US support for
the people of Syria.
Since August the US stance on Syria has projected that Al-Assad cannot
continue in his presidency however official US remarks condemning Syria
have not gone too much further than that. The US and other Western
countries are very careful not to engage too deeply with the Syrian
opposition, limiting interaction thus far to dialogue while only
acknowledging the SNCa**s legitimacy as an interlocutor, instead of
officially recognizing and endorsing it as the legitimate representatives
of the Syrian people <LINK>. Despite some rumors detailing the active
development of plans for a buffer or no fly zone in Syria, Turkey and
western nations have not yet taken steps that would even suggest that the
implementation of such a move has been decided on and at this moment they
remain merely contingency plans. <Link to piece on no fly/buffer zone>.
Meeting with the Syrian National Council
During Clintona**s Dec. 6th visit to Geneva she met with Syrian exiled
leaders of the umbrella Syrian National Council (SNC) including president,
Burhan Ghalioun. This served as Clintona**s second meeting with members
of the Syrian opposition and follows the US desire to remain engaged with
elements of the opposition as a contingency in case the opposition becomes
united and proves adept and also serves to stem domestic criticism against
US inaction. During the discourse Clinton made it clear to the SNC that
they need to engage with and include Syrians of every ethnicity and gender
into the opposition organization. Since the beginning of the SNC's
inception in September there have been concerns that the SNC is not
sufficiently representative of the entire Syrian opposition. As an
opposition group based outside Syria, despite some reports of protesters
chanting in support of the SNC, the amount of real support the SNC garners
from Alawites, Druze, Kurds, Christians and Sunni anti-regime protesters
within Syria is unknown.
Due to the strength of the Alawite regimea**s military forces, the
protestors face severe impediments in their attempts to overthrow or
fracture the regime. It is thus one of the key interests of the SNC to
portray itself to the international community as the united front of the
Syrian opposition in efforts to gain international recognition and
support. Furthermore it is in the necessary interest of the greater
Syrian opposition including protesters, SNC members and supporters, and
soldiers in the Free Syrian Army (FSA), to tilt the scales in their favor
by winning the support of the international community though the media and
propaganda. Foreign governments are cautious for a reason and thus the
opposition strategy is two-fold; make them less afraid by showing you are
unified, and force them to act by creating domestic political pressure at
home for them to act. If the opposition can force the western nations to
recognize a severe humanitarian crisis as well as present a unified
contingency plan for Assada**s ouster, only then can international
intervention truly be considered.
Propaganda War Continues
In the midst of the propaganda war that has ensued since February, Assad
gave his first interview with US media since that time, though European
media has interviewed him more recently, and it consisted of carefully
crafted answers including his firm pronouncement that he maintains the
overwhelming support of the Syrian people. On a similar note, when asked
about the reports of the numerous human rights abuses attributed to Syrian
security forces and Shabiyha -pro regime plain clothed militia- Al-Assad
assured that such accounts and video footage cannot be trusted. In some
ways Assad's statement on the media is true, in that claims from both the
media and the opposition should be take with a grain of salt considering
the intentions of both sides and that such claims cannot be independently
Assada**s interview aired just one day after the apparent crackdown in
Homs Dec. 5 a** 6th according to several Syrian opposition groups
including the Syria based Local Coordinating Committee (LCC). The LCC
claims to receive their information from members of numerous LCC groups
throughout Syria and has proved to be fairly consistent during the course
of the unrest compared to many other opposition organizations based
outside Syria who tend to heavily inflate and even invent claims. Even in
the case that LCC reports are inflated, their consistent daily reports
serve as a trend line that can be monitored. According to the LCC, during
the span of the two days, of the 65 reportedly killed across Syria, 53 of
them were reportedly killed in Homs. On average 20-25 deaths are reported
throughout Syria daily, the majority of which are scattered between the
main restive cities, and on Friday the numbers can swell up to 30-35.
During the course of the unrest crackdowns such as the one reported in
Homs do happen occasionally, roughly every 1-1/2 to 2 months a crackdown
in a particularly restive city like Homs, Hama, Deraa, and Idlib is
Role of the Free Syrian Army
Another key player in the propaganda war, in addition to SANA and Syrian
activist groups, is the Free Syrian Army (FSA), a group that appears to
consist of mainly mid- to low-ranking Sunni soldiers who defected from the
Syrian army who announced their formation via video in late July <LINK>.
In early October, the FSA began to claim responsibility for military-style
operations against armored vehicles, checkpoints and blockades manned by
Syrian forces and Shabiha a** a plainclothes pro-regime militia <LINK>.
Just as the SNC needs to appear as the united front of the opposition, the
FSA needs to appear as protectors of the innocent in order to counter
daily claims by the Syrian regime regarding attacks by the FSA as being
the work of 'armed terrorists.' In efforts to acheive the downfall of the
regime the FSA is calling for foreign military intervention and therefore
needs international powers to perceive the FSA as a capable military force
that could magnify and fortify efforts of international forces in the case
of such an intervention.
It should be noted that the unity of the FSA and effectiveness of their
communication capabilities are unknown, and that the FSA has not claimed
every attack that State media and activist groups report has occurred.
During the past few weeks, of the attacks reported by Syrian activist
groups and Syrian State media (SANA), the FSA has claimed nowhere near all
of them, possibly due to three different reasons. One, it could be that
the attack carried out was not caused by FSA soldiers but rather other
defectors from the Syrian Army who are not affiliated with FSA, or simply
anti-regime individuals. Two, it could be that claiming the attack would
impair the international image of the Free Syrian Army. Three, the
attacks could have been fabricated by Syrian state media.
During the past few weeks the FSA has appeared to make a greater effort to
appeal to the international community as it has formed a joint commission
with the Syrian National Council and solidified an official relationship
which helped to send the message that if the Syrian regime is brought
down, the opposition military would not seek utilitarian power.
Additionally the commission serves to create a unified plan and vision
between the FSA and SNC, which is a key factor in the equation of foreign
military intervention, though the degree the FSA will follow this plan
remains to be seen.
The most recent example of the absence of FSA claims and reports occurred
Dec. 8 when SANA reported that an armed terrorist group opened fire on a
crude oil transfer pipeline to the northwest of the Homs refinery. The
Syrian Observatory for Human Rights a** a Syrian activist group based in
the UK a** also reported that an oil pipeline in Homs was bombed, but
offered no details on the perpetrators. No individual or group has claimed
responsibility for the attack, but the fact that both sides are reporting
it, and the images of the fire provided by both the opposition and SANA,
indicates that an explosion on pipeline did occur. In this case it is
possible that the FSA, defectors, or anti-regime individuals could have
been responsible for the attack or even that the attack was accidental and
occurred during a crackdown on protesters in the area.
Turkey/Syrian Border
Another incident not claimed by the FSA has been the skirmishes reported
by SANA and other independent claims on the Turkey/Syria border. Dec. 6
SANA claimed that Syrian border security forces clashed with an a**armed
terrorist groupa** and that the group eventually fled back to Turkey,
however this was not claimed or reported by FSA, Syrian activists groups,
or the Turkish government. Reuters, citing SANA, made the claims of
Turkish military support but that those claims dona**t appear on SANA
website itself. One day earlier, Dec. 5 SANA reported that Syrian
vehicles crossing into Turkey were attacked by a group of individuals with
knives and stones. Dec. 7 Turkish Foreign Ministry sources denied both
claims, but in spite of these denials Turkish governor Murat Girgin closed
one of its border gates with Turkey in the town of Nusaybin. Girgin
stated that Syrian officials indicated the gate was closed due to
maintenance and that it would be reopened upon completion of the
maintenance. Whether or not any of these claims are true, it is important
to remember that in many cases perception is reality and that during the
past week relations between Ankara and Damascus have remained strained to
say the least.
Turkey has played an important role during the Syrian unrest as well and
hosts 5 Syrian refugee camps, and openly hosts FSA leadership including
leader Colonel Riyad Al Asaad. Turkey has been the most vocal in
pressuring al Assad, with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on
Nov. 22 calling for al Assada**s resignation and on numerous occasions
threatening to implement a buffer zone extending into Syrian territory
<LINK reva's piece>. However, intervening militarily is not Turkeya**s
primary interest, it is instead to ensure that instability in Syria does
not cause a refugee crisis or encourage Kurdish separatist activity within
Turkeya**s borders. Though strong in their words, Turkey has been careful
to avoid direct involvement in with Syrian forces and has refuted claims
of arming FSA soldiers. At this point Turkey will likely remain reluctant
to get involved militarily in the Syrian conflict as it faces numerous
constraints, and such a military commitment will not even be contemplated
without the support, financially and militarily, of western nations.
It is important to remember that thus far Syrian protesters have not been
able to overwhelm Assada**s forces just as the crackdowns by Syrian forces
on demonstrators has not been able to silence protesters and quell the
unrest. As long the largely Alawite forces remain united and loyal to
Assad, the unity of the Al Assad clan ensues, and the Baath party monopoly
holds strong, Assad will continue to hold a grasp on power. If one of
those pillars falters, Assad will render exposed and even more
vulnerable. Until the elements of the opposition can overwhelmingly tip
the scales of the international community in their favor, the western
approach to Syria will remain the same, relying mostly on discourse with
the opposition while only verbally condemning the human rights abuses
conducted by the regime.

"Gemstones have a beauty unlike anything else," explains David Yurman. He is known for his use of brilliant colored stones in bold dimensions and unconventional combinations. What makes them radiate is the designer's signature faceting. David Yurman has developed exclusive cuts that reveal a stone's fullest brilliance and color. Unique settings further highlight the beauty of the gems—proving once again that when this sculptor's skilled artistry meets nature's most beautiful materials, beautiful things happen.
In antiquity, the island of Great Britain was known as Albion. For the ancients, it referred to the white cliffs of Dover that line the coast and served as a marker for returning sailors. For the great Romantic poet William Blake, the name represented the liberation of humanity and the dawn of a new day. And for David Yurman, it inspired a collection of radiant bezel-set designs, capturing both the sense of a journey's end and the brilliant beginning of something new.

So DISH is the only bad job on the planet? There are no other places where people could "do some time" in a job where they are overworked, underappreciated, overstressed and underpaid? Really?As far as the employer/employee relationship and the platitudes there; unless you're willing to put in some time at DISH, stick to the facts. Opinions are not served here unless you've done some time.
There are a lot of people making the best of the job they have. And yes, putting a year or two at a job you hate (if the hiring manager lets you in the door) is better than joining the 99 week unemployed and getting no benefits population (which with unemployment cutbacks is less than 99 weeks in many states).
The facts are that there are people to take those unwanted jobs. Perhaps they would be happier somewhere else but we're not in a position as a nation to have everyone in their dream job getting paid for what they love to do. We're in a position as a nation where many are simply looking to get paid for something they can tolerate - for a while.
Unfortunately there is also a lot of unfilled jobs that people don't want to do ... not enough to completely wipe out unemployment but enough to notice when one is looking at the problem as a whole.
