Is there a DTD for HTML?
Is there a DTD for HTML? If so, can an XML parser parse HTML documents with it? I'm looking for a simple way to parse HTML documents the same as I can parse XML documents with JAXP.
HTML is an SGML application and although it has a DTD (http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/), SGML DTDs are different from XML DTDs.

An SGML system can work with all XML DTDs (in theory at least) but XML systems cannot work with all SGML DTDs.
The big problem is that HTML parsers need to infer the structure of the document when tags (such as </p>) are missing. This is hard and not all tools give you the same result.
There are two tools worth looking at for getting your HTML into shape to be parseable as XML: Dave Ragget's HTML Tidy and James Clark's SGML to XML conversion.

Sounders FC's Jeff Parke unhappy with being benched
Sounders FC defender Jeff Parke hasn't played in the first two games of the MLS season, and he's not happy about it.
Seattle Times staff reporter
San Jose @ Sounders FC, 7 p.m., KONG
Latest from the Sounders FC blog
New York Red Bulls sign USMNT midfielder Sacha Kljestan NEW - 1/28, 01:04 PM
TUKWILA — Jeff Parke, Sounders FC's reigning Defender of the Year, hasn't played a single minute this MLS season.
He's not injured, and he's not happy sitting on the bench.
"It's the coach's decision," said Parke of Seattle coach Sigi Schmid. "He's the one with the answers."
"Do I agree with it? No. Do I think that's the reality of it? No. But that's his take. Everybody's entitled to their own opinions and their own thoughts. I'm going to try my best to keep the frustration and anger down. ... I guess it's a part of the game."
Seattle has started Jhon Kennedy Hurtado and Patrick Ianni at center back in its first two MLS games, and the defense has allowed just one goal in back-to-back wins. Schmid has long maintained that the team has three capable starters and the position has seen some rotation the past couple years.
Asked if he felt he proved his worth last season, starting a career-high 28 league games, Parke said: "I thought I did."
The 30-year-old was named in December the team's best defender after the 2011 season. A couple of weeks after that honor, he was called up by the U.S. national team for the first time.
Fast forward a couple of months, and Parke knows it'll take hard work to get back into the Sounders' lineup. The Sounders' starting defense for Saturday's 7 p.m. home game against San Jose will be determined later in the week, according to Schmid.
"That's how sports are sometimes," Parke said. "It's not always in your favor. You're not always in the coach's favor. It's the tough thing about sports, but you got to keep working and keep pushing. As long as the team is doing well, that's all that matters to me, really. But in the back of mind, I also want to play."
Parke started both of the team's games in a season-opening CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal against Mexico's Santos Laguna. Seattle lost the series 7-3 on aggregate goals, and the defense was particularly poor in a 6-1 road defeat.
Schmid replaced Parke with Ianni after the CCL, saying the move was mostly about getting fresh legs on the field for the start of the MLS season. But the backline stayed the same in Friday's 2-0 win against Houston, which happened to be Parke's 30th birthday.
Days later, Parke was still not in the mood for celebration.
"It's frustrating, but the only thing I can do is go out and play and push for the spot," he said.
Clark suspended for gay slur
MLS has suspended Houston Dynamo midfielder Colin Clark three games for directing a gay slur toward a ball boy in Friday night's 2-0 loss to Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field.
Clark, 27, was also fined an undisclosed amount and must attend diversity and sensitivity training.
"Major League Soccer will not tolerate this type of behavior from its players or staff at any time, under any circumstances," said commissioner Don Garber in a news release.
Clark has apologized to the ball boy and said in a statement that he accepts the punishment. He is believed to be the first American professional athlete to be suspended by his league for anti-gay behavior since former MLB pitcher John Rocker in 1998, according to Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD).
• Visiting fans from Vancouver and Portland will be allocated 1,500 tickets for rivalry games at CenturyLink Field, according to Sounders FC general manager Adrian Hanauer. The entire stadium will be open for visits from the Whitecaps (Aug. 18) and Timbers (Oct. 7). Seattle's traveling fans get 800 tickets for rivalry games this season, but the total allocation is close to even since the Sounders play twice at both Vancouver and Portland.
• As a result of an embarrassing 7-0 loss to Manchester United last year, Hanauer said the team has discussed changing its strategy to be more competitive for its July 18 friendly against Chelsea FC.

Once you make your yogurt pour it into a cheesecloth-lined colander. Use about a quart of yogurt. Let it set all day or overnight until the whey drains off and the yogurt becomes a light, creamy cheese. Use at once in place of cream cheese or refrigerate it for up to a week. You can also freeze it for up to 6 months or so. It has never lasted that long in our house! Use as you would regular cream cheese.
You can also combine three cups of yogurt, three tablespoons of honey, and one teaspoon vanilla or grated orange peel. Stir until smooth. Pour into a 9 inch pie pan with or without a shell. Chill 24 hours before serving. You can add favorite fruit toppings for extra flavor and decoration!

Hope you had a good flight; and laying somewhere at a Pacific beach right now...
Umas picous pas pepes papeires !!
(I tried to give you a farewell call last Friday, but i guess biz mobile was already disconnected)
Bye Europe
Trip Start
Dec 14, 2007
Trip End
Nov 04, 2008
We are very exited, and the food of our favourite restaurant in Paris ("Chez Fred and Chouchou", Rue Acacias, food from Auvergne) feels a little heavy in the stomach.
I am sure we will never forget the flight we had to take down those stairs, and the poor waiter was green in the face clearing up this table! Marcos insists he didn't do it, and it wasn't me, so that leaves actutally only Don - or Alex :). Anyone who knows Marcos, knows what I am referring to!
The flight to Santiago is tonight, and we will let you know how it all went once we get internet access over there.
The weatherforecast is brutal news for you: 30 degrees, sunshine. So we will probably head to the beach very soon.
Talk to you soon guys!

A.P.C. + Nike: The Sold-Out Collab Is Back for Round Two!
Remember when the masterminds of French cool at A.P.C. teamed up with the athletic experts at Nike on a capsule of sneakers last fall? If you don't, it's probably because the collection sold out within hours of landing online. (According to A.P.C.'s U.S. PR team, inquiring calls and emails about the shoes continued for the following year.)
Well, good news for those who missed out on the first team-up: A.P.C. + Nike is back for a second go! Once again, it's Nike's Dunk and bubble-cushioned Air Max styles that are getting the Gallic treatment, with each reworked in minimalist suede and canvas for both men and women. As of right now, all sizes and colors appear to be available in both styles—but judging by the collab's last installment, that won't last very long. Click through to shop A.P.C. + Nike's women's offerings now!

Development of Fully Approved Site Will Fill Gap in Urban Fabric That Has Persisted for 45 Years; Creating 1,000 Housing Units, Hundreds of Thousands of Square Feet of New Commercial Space, 1,000 Permanent Jobs and 5,000 Construction Jobs
New York City, January 9, 2013 – New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) and Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) today announced the next major step in transforming the largest parcel of under-developed City-owned land in Manhattan below 96th Street into vibrant, mixed-use space in one of New York's most dynamic, diverse and historic neighborhoods. With the release of a Request for Proposals (RFP) today, nine sites located near the intersection of Essex Street and Delancey Street are on their way to becoming a 1.65-million-square-foot development including 1,000 units of housing with half of the units being permanently affordable. In addition, the RFP calls for new commercial space, a new and expanded Essex Street Market, open space, and the potential for a school and other community space. The development will create approximately 1,000 permanent jobs and 5,000 construction jobs.
"The community-driven redevelopment of Seward Park will be an historic opportunity to bring new housing, jobs and private investment to the Lower East Side," Deputy Mayor Robert K. Steel said. "Seward Park is the latest example of Mayor Bloomberg's commitment to revitalizing neighborhoods in all five boroughs."
"Today marks another historic milestone for the Lower East Side generally and Seward Park in particular," said New York City Economic Development Corporation President Seth W. Pinsky. "With the transformation of six acres of underutilized land into new housing, commercial and open space, we will not only create much-needed neighborhood amenities, but also generate thousands of new jobs. The release of this RFP is the culmination of an unprecedented community planning process, and we look forward to receiving a robust set of proposals that will ultimately reintegrate these sites back into this vital community."
"The collaborative and grassroots nature of this process has borne fruit, and we are excited to be taking this critical step in the development of this Lower East Side community," said HPD Commissioner Mathew M. Wambua. "The affordable housing that will be built here represents an opportunity for the area's residents and working-class New Yorkers to continue to grow with the neighborhood, to help define its character, and add to its stability. The Community Board, elected officials, and the Task Force have shown extraordinary resolve in coming to a consensus that creates a plan that puts these sites into productive use and allows for a reasonable and carefully planned development to take place."
"This RFP is great news for the Lower East Side community and for our local economy and goes a long way to support both new and existing merchants, said Council Speaker Christine C. Quinn. "I'm proud the Council was able to secure many provisions in the RFP, including greater community involvement in the process as well as increased permanent affordable housing units and reserved land for a potential school. I want to thank Council Members Chin and Mendez and the Bloomberg administration for working together to ensure this is a transparent process that best benefits the community and city."
"I am proud to be a part of the historic development of the Seward Park Urban Renewal Area," said Council Member Margaret Chin. "As a member of the task force that helped to shape this RFP, I want thank the Bloomberg Administration and Community Board 3 for ensuring that the Lower East Side community's voice was a part of this process. I also want to thank Seth Pinsky, the Economic Development Corporation, and Commissioner Wambua, for incorporating the community priorities into this RFP. I know that the development of SPURA will be even more successful because it is responsive to the community's needs, as well as the City's at large."
"This is a major step forward in our effort to create a vibrant, mixed-use community at the Seward Park Urban Renewal Area" said Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver. "The development plan is the result of an open, inclusive process that brought together stakeholders from throughout our Lower East Side community. With the RFP going out today, we are writing a new and exciting chapter in the rich, diverse history of this wonderful neighborhood. I want to thank Mayor Bloomberg, the members of Community Board 3, and my fellow Lower Manhattan elected officials for their tireless efforts on behalf of this project."
"The Lower East Side community has been waiting 45 years for today. Community board 3's land use committee and SPURA taskforce have worked tirelessly for the past 4 years to ensure that the RFP released today reflects the priorities of this community, which include mixed income housing, former site tenant preference, and local partnerships," said Gigi Li, Chair of Community Board 3. "We are proud to have worked with Councilmembers Chin and Mendez, HDP, and EDC on Seward Park, and look forward to the site further enriching our neighborhood."
"After all these years, it's fitting that a community-driven process moved SPURA forward," said Senator Daniel Squadron. "From new affordable housing that is so critical to the continued vibrancy and diversity of the Lower East Side, to multi-use development that will provide jobs and vital community use and bring new businesses into our neighborhood, we've worked long and hard to reach this point. Working together with my colleagues in government and our tireless community leaders, we all made this possible."
"Today, we take an important step forward in terms of implementing our collective vision for Seward Park rebirth and renewal, through the official release of the Seward Park Mixed-Use Development Project RFP," said Council Member Rosie Mendez. "Given the scope and substance of this project—including essential affordable housing, open space, community facility, commercial and educational cornerstones—this RFP process represents a singular opportunity to shape our community landscape and the lives of successive generations of New Yorkers. As we move forward, I urge respondents to understand the unique history of this site, pay close attention to the recommendations of the Seward Park Task Force, and to submit plans that will manifestly benefit our connected communities."
"The release of this RFP brings the Lower Eastside neighborhood one step closer to revitalizing the large vacant lots south of Delancey Street with badly-needed affordable housing and other targeted development," said Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer. "As this process continues, and as part of the Community Taskforce, our office looks forward to selecting a program that best meets the goals of this project's many stakeholders. By engaging multiple community groups and stakeholders, SPURA has set an example for community-based planning that could be a model for future development of public land in our City."
"The announcement of the RFP for the Seward Park Mixed-Use Development Project is welcome news for the Lower East Side, heralding a future that will include an appropriate mix of affordable and middle income housing, commercial development, and desperately needed new public spaces that can meet the community's critical need for more open space and public classroom seats," said Rep. Maloney.
"Redeveloping this area promises additional affordable housing and commercial real estate options," said Rep. Nydia M. Velázquez (D-NY). "As this process moves forward, my focus will be ensuring continued involvement from the local community."
The Seward Park Mixed-Use Development Project, which has already received all necessary public land use and environmental approvals, grew out of extraordinarily cooperative grassroots community leadership, focused on consensus building and working in partnership with the City. The guidelines for the plan were forged over the past four years, with monthly meetings led by the Community Board, in coordination with a team of representatives from the Bloomberg Administration, in order to come to an agreement on this historic plan. As a result of this extensive collaboration, sites that have largely sat vacant for more than four decades will finally be developed and reintegrated into the vital, urban fabric of the Lower East Side. Additionally, as part of the RFP process, the City has been meeting with a Task Force designated by the Community Board, who have included their priorities for the project in the RFP itself, thereby continuing the partnership with the local stakeholders during the RFP process.
The RFP includes the following provisions and requirements:
One or multiple developers may be selected to develop any or all of the sites, and it is anticipated that a designation will be made by the end of 2013. Proposals must be submitted by Monday, May 6, 2013. For more information and to download the RFP, visit: www.nycedc.com/sewardpark
Five of the sites included in the RFP were acquired as part of a 1965 federal urban renewal plan that called for commercial and housing development, with demolition of the sites beginning in 1967. While portions of the plan were implemented, five sites remained undeveloped and have been used largely for surface parking. Several attempts were made to develop the sites over the years, but proposals ultimately failed to move forward due to lack of consensus on the best use of the sites. The original Seward Park Extension Urban Renewal Plan expired in 2005, 40 years after its adoption. Additionally City-owned sites in the vicinity incorporated into the new plan include the Essex Street Market and related market buildings.

Inside the Box
The three separate boxes inside slide out like trays. It makes it easy to get out just what you want as you are building without making a mess everywhere.
The top of the Platimax 1350W features the I/O specification label. You can also get an idea of the rough textured black finish on the unit.
Both sides features the same Platimax and arrow logos with the opposite side being inverted.
The front of the Platimax unit features all of the modular connections. My only complaint is that there are no labels here.
There isn't anything out of the usual here on the back of the Platimax. It features your standard honeycomb mesh grill along with on/off rocker switch and AC input. It is nice to see that Enermax has gone with the standard C14 style connector instead of C20 style that many of the higher wattage units use.
The bottom features the 140mm fan with wire grill that covers it. Surrounding the fan is a chrome bezel to add a bit of flair.
All of the modular cables are fully sleeved with nylon mesh and secured with heat shrink on each end to prevent it from coming undone.
Also included in the box are mounting screws, reusable Velcro straps, AC input cord and rail distribution card. Also included, but not present, is the user manual and CordGuard clip.

Honoring Our Nation's Veterans
November 11, 2013
To Lockheed Martin U.S. Employees:
Today our country celebrates Veterans Day – a day to honor the men and women who have served in our armed forces.
Since the founding of our nation, we have relied on exceptional individuals who answered the call to defend our country "against all enemies, foreign and domestic."
Often they were sent to faraway places with names etched in history, where they fought courageously in the name of freedom. They stepped forward in times of crisis to come to the aid of those who needed it most. From natural disasters to global conflict, veterans have helped people around the world recover and rebuild their lives.
Here at home, they're an embodiment of enduring values – like honor, integrity and service – that have made this country great.
For this and so much more, veterans have earned America's heartfelt gratitude.
In Lockheed Martin, we have 24,293 U.S. veterans among our ranks – nearly one-quarter of our workforce. To all of you, on this special day, I want to express my deep appreciation for all you've done for our nation and for Lockheed Martin.
I hope all of you will join me today – and every day – in saying to veterans everywhere: Thank you for your service. You have helped to make the world a better place.
Marillyn A. Hewson,
Chief Executive Officer and President
Lockheed Martin

Call to new USAID chief to do more on infectious killers of children
Comments (0)USAID - the US government's overseas development assistance agency - has a new chief. Dr Rajiv Shah was sworn in on 7th January - see USAID press release.
Dr Shah is sure to be hearing from many people who would like to see changes in USAID policy, particularly as regards health. Amongst them will be Dr Orin Levine Executive Director of the International Vaccine Access Center at Johns Hopkins University. Writing in the Huffington Post, Dr Levine says USAID's health policies should be more "child friendly". He refers in particular to the two biggest killers of children, both of them the result of infections - pneumonia and diarrhoea. He notes that USAID funding has tended to focus more on diseases that kill adults, particularly AIDS. Interventions are available, proven by research to be effective, that USAID should fund in order to save children's lives.

I decided to buy SBCG4AP (Strong Bad) on DVD instead of a download (actually, my parents got it for my birthday). I installed the game with the latest WINE perfectly, but when I try running one of the games, it says it cannot detect my CD drive. Should I have gone with a download? Is there a patch to remove "the virus known as SecuROM", or to let the game work on Linux correctly? Thank you in advance!
PS: I bought Sam and Max season 1 as a download, and the installers and games work perfectly with the latest WINE; SBCG4AP shouldn't be much different. If it wasn't for SecuROM I'd be playing by now :\.

Gwynne Dyer: The other Cuban Missile Crisis
This month is the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis (October 16 to 28, 1962), so we're going to hear a great deal about the weeks when the world almost died. But the past is a foreign country, a place where everything was black and white and men still wore hats, so it's just scary stories about a long-gone time. Or so it seems.
The outlines of the tale are well known. It was 17 years since the United States had used nuclear weapons on Japan, and the Soviet Union now had them too. Lots of them: the American and Soviet arsenals included some 30,000 nuclear weapons, and not all of them were carried by bombers anymore. Some were mounted on rockets that could reach their targets in the other country in half an hour.
Both Washington and Moscow therefore had some version of a "launch on warning" policy: if you think the other side's missiles are inbound, launch your own missiles before you lose them. There couldn't be a more hair-trigger situation than that, you might think—but then things got a lot worse.
At the start of the 1960s Moscow had gained a new Communist ally in Fidel Castro, but the United States kept talking about invading Cuba. So Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev moved some nuclear-tipped missiles to Cuba to deter the United States from attacking the island. However, from Cuba the Soviet missiles would be only five minutes away from their American targets. That caused panic in Washington.
Early in October 1962, the first Soviet SS-4 missiles arrived in Cuba, and American U-2 spy planes discovered them almost at once. President John F. Kennedy knew about them by October 16, but he did not go on television and warn the American public of the risk of nuclear war until the 22nd.
He then declared a naval blockade of Cuba, saying that he would stop Soviet ships carrying further missiles from reaching Cuba by force if necessary. That would mean war, and probably nuclear war, but at least the blockade gave the Russians some time to think before the shooting started.
The Soviet leaders were now desperately looking for a way out of the crisis they had created. After a few harrowing days, a deal was done: the Soviet SS-4 missiles would be withdrawn from Cuba in return for a public promise by the United States not to invade Cuba. The crisis was officially over by October 28, and everybody breathed a sigh of relief. It was closest the world ever came to an all-out nuclear war.
Even so, they weren't really scared enough. They thought that a couple of hundred million people would die in a "nuclear exchange". At that time, nobody yet knew that detonating so many nuclear warheads would cause a "nuclear winter": the dust and smoke put into the stratosphere by firestorms in a thousand stricken cities would have blocked out the sunlight for a year or more and resulted in a worldwide famine.
What almost nobody knew until very recently is that the crisis did not really end on October 28. A new book by Sergo Mikoyan, The Soviet Cuban Missile Crisis: Castro, Mikoyan, Kennedy, Khrushchev, and the Missiles of November, reveals that it continued all the way through November.
U.S. intelligence was unaware that along with the SS-4s, the Soviet Union had also sent more than a hundred shorter-range "tactical" nuclear missiles to Cuba. They weren't mentioned in the Soviet–U.S. agreement on withdrawing the SS-4s from Cuba, so technically Khrushchev had not promised to remove them.
Fidel Castro was in a rage about having been abandoned by his Soviet allies, so to mollify him, Khrushchev decided to let him keep the tactical missiles. It was crazy: giving Fidel Castro a hundred nuclear weapons was a recipe for a new and even bigger crisis in a year or two. Khrushchev's deputy, Anastas Mikoyan, who was sent to Cuba to tell Castro the happy news, quickly realized that he must not have them.
The second half of the crisis, invisible to Americans, was Mikoyan's month-long struggle to pry Castro's fingers off the hundred tactical nuclear missiles. In the end, he only succeeded by telling Castro that an unpublished (and in fact non-existent) law forbade the transfer of Soviet nuclear weapons to a foreign country. In December, they were finally crated up and sent home.
So it all ended happily, in one sense—but the whole world could have ended instead. As Robert McNamara, Kennedy's defence secretary in 1962, said 40 years later, "we were just plain lucky in October 1962—and without that luck most of you would never have been born because the world would have been destroyed instantly or made unlivable in October 1962."
Then he said the bit that applies to us. "Something like that could happen today, tomorrow, next year. It will happen at some point. That is why we must abolish nuclear weapons as soon as possible." They are still there, you know, and human beings still make mistakes.
The sub incident as well is worth noting. The US navy spotted a Soviet sub and McNamara suggested they drop some depth charges as a warning - they didn't know however that the Naval commander had no radio contact with Moscow and since the sub was a boomer (nuclear armed) he had the authority to launch if threatened. In the end he did not. So in some sense that Russian Sub commander saved the world.
But one thing we all agree is the Nazi Germany as did the US
would not have hesitated to use it too.
It doesn't work like that in America.
New 'gunslingers' ride into town and we're never safe.
Currently up to bat, the evils of Islamic Jihad, to be followed by the threat of the Yellow Peril.
The current coterie of 'leaders' seem to be working up to a 'real' war, and their level of imagination is only matched by a dwindling ability to do diplomacy.
The missiles weren't armed, and the Russians hadn't the troops to protect them:
Propaganda and Disinformation:
How the CIA Manufactures History
'Secrecy is maintained not to keep the enemy from knowing what's going on, because the enemy usually does know. Secrecy exists to keep the American public, from knowing what is going on - the real enemy.'
In the European war, there were a few accidental firestorms. British operations research noted that these raids were far more effective at damaging German production. They concluded that the British air raids would be more effective if they added incendiary bombs to the mix and created firestorms regularly. British command decided not to pursue this course because of the excessive damage to the civilian population. Presumably the German analysts made exactly the same observations.
In the USA air raids on Japanese centers, they used incendiary bombs and create firestorms routinely, not by accident. When US command decided whether or not to use the new nuclear weapons, they were not discussing a new level of destruction. They knew these bombs would give them a regular air raid's damage, but with a single plane. It was perhaps not as difficult a decision as we would like to imagine.
The Japanese did some pretty nasty stuff as well, Nanking where they slaughtered hundreds of thousands of civilians, even having beheading competitions, their treatment of prisoners - including medical experimentation, and biological warfare. When I lived in Japan I went to Hiroshima and they've made shrine out of it. I also went to the Yasukuni military museum. From the displays there, one gets the feeling they were innocently dragged into war by the US. My Japanese friend and I watched TORA TORA TORA on he 50th anniversary of Pearl Harbour and halfway through the movie she turned to me in amazement and said, - you mean Japan started the war? All their high school books dwell on Hiroshima and but try to find a mention of Nanking, or the Korean women that were sent around as prostitutes for the troops.
They also had their versions of internment camps for Westerners.
I agree though, using atom bombs was a no-brainer to the conventional wisdom of the type. The Japanese were extremely hated and portrayed as simian-like subhumans in American propaganda, similar to the dehumanizing of Slavs and Jews by the Nazis.

MSC in Jerusalem claims rocket fire, demands Hamas release jihadists
On April 2, the Mujahideen Shura Council in the Environs of Jerusalem (MSC), an al Qaeda-linked group, claimed credit for two rocket attacks against Israel. According to the first statement, which was released by the Ibn Taymiyyah Media Center to jihadist forums as well as the Center's Facebook and Tumblr pages, the attack was in response to the death of Hamas' Maisara Abu Hamdiyeh.
Abu Hamdiyeh died of esophageal cancer on Tuesday at Beersheba's Soroka Medical Center in Israel. A press release from Hamas praised Hamdiyeh for "training the Mujahideen" since 1989 and working tirelessly "to supply the Mujahideen with weapons and explosives." He was sentenced to life in prison in 2002 for attempted murder, among other charges.
The statement from the MSC, which was obtained and translated by the SITE Intelligence Group, said that "when the Muslim prisoners increase in the prisons of the brothers of pigs and monkeys, there is no room for statements of condemnation or denouncement that don't even deserve the ink with which they are written. We must follow the command of Allah to defend the weak and deter the aggression of the disbelievers and the criminals."
According to the MSC, it fired two rockets towards the Nir Oz kibbutz in the Eshkol Region Council at 3:20 p.m. on April 2. However, an IDF spokesperson said those rockets landed short of Israel in Gaza. Approximately five hours later, the MSC fired three more rockets towards Israel, according to a second statement released by the Ibn Taymiyyah Media Center on April 2. At least one of those rockets landed in the Eshkol Regional Council.
In response to the rocket fire, the Israeli Air Force struck a couple of targets in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli airstrikes were the first in Gaza since the end of Operation Pillar of Defense in late November 2012.
In addition to claiming responsibility for the attack, the first statement from the MSC also called on Hamas to release Salafi jihadists currently being held in prisons in Gaza. "In the event of any treacherous escalation that the criminal Jews might carry out, we demand from the reasonable people in the Hamas Movement to pressure their government security agencies to release the Salafist Jihadist mujahideen who are held unjustly in their prisons," the statement said.
Last week, Hamas forces reportedly arrested two Salafi jihadists in Zawaida, raided the home of a member of the Popular Resistance Committees, and kidnapped a Salafi jihadist in Rafah. Press reports suggest that the two jihadists in Zawaida were connected to the MSC, which took credit for a rocket attack on Israel on March 21. On March 30, the Ibn Taymiyyah Media Center warned on its Facebook page that preparations were being made by Hamas to launch a mass campaign of arrests against Salafi jihadists in the Gaza Strip.
Mujahideen Shura Council in the Environs of Jerusalem
The Mujahideen Shura Council in the Environs of Jerusalem (MSC) is a consolidation of a number of Salafi jihadist groups operating in the Gaza Strip including, but not limited to: Tawhid and Jihad Group in Jerusalem, and Ansar al Sunnah. Sheikh Anas Abdul Rahman, one of the group's leaders, has said that the group aims to "fight the Jews for the return of Islam's rule, not only in Palestine, but throughout the world."
The MSC has taken responsibility for a number of rocket attacks against Israel, as well as the June 18, 2012 attack that killed one Israeli civilian. The group said that the attack was "a gift to our brothers in Qaedat al Jihad and Sheikh Zawahiri" and retaliation for the death of Osama bin Laden. In early February 2013, the MSC released a martyrdom video branding one of the terrorists killed in the June 2012 attack as an al Qaeda "martyr."
On Oct. 22, 2012, the MSC released a 32-minute-long video detailing some of its rocket attacks against Israel and threatening to "fight you [Israel] as long as we hold...weapons in our hands."
In November 2012, the group carried out joint rocket attacks with the Army of Islam. Following the institution of a ceasefire that ended Israel's Operation Pillar of Defense, the MSC said that they were not truly a party to the ceasefire.
In 2012, the Israeli Air Force targeted a number of MSC members. On Oct. 7, the IDF killed Tala'at Halil Muhammad Jarbi, a "global jihad operative," and Abdullah Muhammad Hassan Maqawai, a member of the MSC. Maqawai was likely a former member of Palestinian Islamic Jihad. On Oct. 13, Israel killed Abu al Walid al Maqdisi, the former emir of the Tawhid and Jihad Group in Jerusalem, and Ashraf al Sabah, the former emir of Ansar al Sunnah, in an airstrike. The two men were said to be leaders of the MSC.

Posted by Maverick at April 4, 2013 6:23 PM ET:
The only way to end this is by eradication of the problem, hoping for peace will only allow the problem to continue and more innocent people will continue to die. Fight it out to the end and be done with it and then there will finally be peace. other wise this will continue for another two thousand years

I have been excited to see the Gallagher-plekanec-galchenyuk line. They were clicking really good by 3 rd period. Still can't believe people were suggesting Plekanec be traded to make room for kids? You don't replace a player like him, with his many strong points in both ends of the ice. I can guarantee you every GM around the league will tell you that. Some of the comments on this site make me laugh- to trade our personnel like plekanec to give more ice to the youth is exactly why the oilers are at the bottom of the standings every year. You HAVE to insulate youth with experience, it is a balance. Again the Oilers will be expecting huge results from their two of three of their centres- R N Hopkins and Rookie Drisiatel? Great players not yet ready for Plekenec like minutes and responsibility in this league. Might work on the XBox but not in the real nhl people.

Up 3 games to none all the haters must be cringing right now! I was thinking earlier today as well - explain this to me...... J.Quenville gets a 25,000 dollar fine for a inappropriate gesture that if you blinked you missed it- Lucic totally sticks a guy in the " you know where" and lays him out poor D Dekeyser, seen on national television and he gets only a 5000 dollar fine???????

Yes Steve Simmonds is a idiot! He has also said on a couple occasions though I don't recall him saying it this yr that Toronto would finish with more points by seasons end. Then Toronto goes and has he back half season melt down and it makes me laugh. And seriously can't stomach that guy! javascript:showThumb(5); - Comment on Habs will open playoff series Wednesday night in Tampa (2014-04-13 23:47:37)
Hey all! Excited for playoffs , I think if MTL takes just 1 of the first two games they ll take the series. Our boys have been feeding on momentum since the Ott come back with the exception of the last couple of games. If they steal one or both MTL will hurt Tampa at home. That being said I can honestly see the team misses Chucky, something they ll have to contend with. His creativity on the second pp unit also missed. Oh, the Boston-Detroit series will be fun. I do feel the booins will take it but not with out a fight. I have enjoyed watching the Red Wings this yr, Tatar,Nyquist even Sheahan are fun to watch and are smart players. And now Datsyuk is back!

gravros7--what you hate the Steelers for man? Tell my you don't cheer for the Ravens !!! - Comment on Habs call up Tinordi from Bulldogs (2014-02-23 20:09:27)
I watched a Bulldogs -Marlies game shortly before the Olympic Games. Beaulieu was the only player that stood out to me and created opportunities for the team when he was on the ice. The game was close with not much happening but when Beaulieu had the puck the Dogs were getting shots and breaking the offensive zone.One PP in particular stood out for me, the second unit came out first and could get nothing done, Beaulieu came off the bench and went end to end twice and quarter backed beautifully! By far he was the best player on both sides and is farthest along in progression as far as Habs prospects are concerned IMO - Comment on Liveblog: Olympic Games, gold-medal game: Canada 3, Sweden 0 (2014-02-23 17:29:33)
Happy to watch Canada capture the gold. Been reading all your posts and i can't help but laugh as i do after each Habs game. love all you guys,tons of passion.My thoughts on Carey-he did his job and was solid! If he let in even just 1 bad goal, Canada may have had a different outcome with the way the game is played on big ice, they did win 3 games by 1 goal one of which in OT. But he didn't allow that goal ,and, all of Canada now is not going off on him questioning his skill set and his ability to perform on the big stage including many posters on this site! That being said- he did not in anyway have as difficult a job as some of the other goaltenders due to the team in front of him. Much like Brodeur in Jersey for over a decade did not face more than 18 or 20 shots a night with 90% or more coming from perimeter areas of the ice.Brodeur was really rarely called upon to win games over a 10 year period he just needed to do his job,which he did and they won-alot. Congrats to this remarkable team with its many Allstars in their varied roles including my favourite player on this team PK Subban! ready to read your replies lol

DVD review
Pavement—Slow Century
The quintessential '90s indie band take a creditable tilt at posterity on this two-disc set. Thirteen delightfully silly videos and two live sets provide the bulk, but the real gem is a detailed and affectionate documentary (reminiscent of Fugazi's Instrument) tracing Pavement from shambolic beginnings to nominally slicker stardom, of a kind. For connoisseurs: plenty of lunatic first drummer Gary Young and Stephen Malkmus interviewed in a sauna.
Rating: 4 / 10

The 25 Best Soccer Cleats of All Time
No. 21 – Stylo Matchmakers
Weight: N/A
Released: Circa 1970's
Highlight: George Best boot of choice when he played.
This is the only selection on the list where we choose a company rather than a particular boot. Why? Well, not only did George Best wear the Style Matchmaker for large parts of his career, he also played a role in designing the boot. And with other players like Kevin Keegan, Trevor Francis and Steve Heighway swearing by the performance offered by the boots through their careers, the company deserves a shoutout. Most of their designs were cutting edge for their time and they pushed the boundaries with side lacing rather than center, with the intent of "maximizing comfort, better ball control and more shooting power".

Army Condemned for Recruitment Practices
Anti-recruitment and anti-war groups have condemned the US Army for its recruitment practices following a $2m sponsorship deal with the Global Gaming League website.
The groups are concerned about the Army's glamorous portrayal of military life, and view this latest recruitment practice as an unethical invasion of popular culture.
Project on Youth and Non-military Opportunities co-founder Rick Jahnkow said, "It is part of this campaign for the last 20 years to invade youth culture with militarism. It affects the way young people think. It affects their world view. That is a very dangerous thing. Soldiering is being popularized when in fact we are supposed to be teaching people from an early age that civilian democratic rule is the ideal.
"The emphasis went from asking people to join military as a patriotic gesture to more along the lines of the ways companies sell tooth paste," added Jahnkow.
Oskar Castro (pictured), a representative of anti-war American Friends Service Committee, said that depictions of Army life conveyed by military organizations were far from truthful.
"If it is virtual reality, why don't you see people screaming for their mother while they die?" he said. "If you are going to show what war is like you should show what war is like. You don't have 'game over' and start again. 'Game over' means you come home in a body bag and a casket."
As revealed earlier this month, the US Army announced it was set to sponsor the Global Gaming League website in a bid to heighten recruitment of young males aged 17-24. The website is frequented by 9.2m players on a monthly basis.

You may find this little timballo of pasta in bars and diners in Palermo that goes with the most classic Sicilian ragout made of minced meat, tomato sauce, onions and pieces of vegetables like carrots and peas.
As this recipe is usually very rich we normally eat it in winter, while for summer we have a different version, considered absolutely "lighter" :-)
It is made of tomato sauce, fried eggplants or aubergines and Sicilian primosale cheese.
My family and I love this version of baked anelletti a lot more than the one with meat and we also add another ingredient: thin slices of Napoli salami, while other people prefer to add ham.
This preparation takes a while (about 3 hours plus baking time), but the result is a scrumptious mouthwatering baked pasta that we normally have for the most important summer festivity: August the 15th, which is called Ferragosto (mid August term) but it is also a Catholic festivity that celebrates the Assumption of Our Lady, the Virgin Mary.
Baked pasta is something you do in layers, so read and follow the recipe carefully.
Ingredients and preparation for about 6 people:
600 gr. anelletti
2 aubergines or eggplants
200 gr. Napoli salami
250 gr. Sicilian primosale cheese
100 gr. Grated Sicilian caciocavallo cheese
1 bottle tomato sauce (about 750 ml)
olive oil
1. First turn on the heat and put on a big pot for cooking the pasta. In the meantime 2. cut the eggplants in slices, not too thin, place them on a colander with salt on and leave them aside for about 15 minutes. It will make them release the bitterness and taste sweeter. After the time has passed just wash them under running water and they are ready to be fried in olive oil.
3. By the time you have finished frying, water in the pot will be boiling, so cook the anelletti as normal pasta, putting some salt in the water. They need about 20 minutes of cooking. 4. Stir the anelletti from time to time and prepare the tomato sauce in an appropriate sauce pan. 5. Cut the primosale cheese in slices or thin pieces and also the salami (you can either leave it in slices or cut it into pieces as well).
6. When the pasta is cooked (but careful not to overcooked it because it has to go in the oven as well!), drain it and add the tomato sauce plus the grated caciocavallo cheese.
Now it's time to start building the layers:
7. Take a large oven dish or tray with high rims and cover the space with some olive oil first, and breadcrumbs after, then put half the amount of anelletti mixed with tomato sauce and grated caciocavallo cheese on the bottom of the tin, then cover with a layer of fried eggplants, then primosale cheese and finally the third one with salami, just as shown in the picture below.
8. Put the rest of anelletti on top and finally cover with some more spoons of tomato sauce to avoid the pasta becoming too dry in the oven, then a drizzle of olive oil and a bit of breadcrumbs again to make the crust in the oven.
9. Bake for about 35 minutes or a little more, until it is golden and crusty.
9. Bake for about 35 minutes or a little more, until it is golden and crusty.
10. Serve hot! On the right the final picture of how the whole thing should look before the baking phase. This is one of the best first dishes of all times... enjoy it!!!

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Ellie May!
Facts about Ellie May
- Breed: Dachshund/Miniature Pinscher Mix
- Color: Black - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Ellie May's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Ellie May is a small and sweet little girl. We are pretty sure she is a Dachshund/Miniature Pinscher mix as she is very smart and affectionate with occasional pogo sticks for legs. Don't let the white on her muzzle fool you about her age, it's simply her markings. Ellie May is only around one and a half years old, and she's only around eight pounds.
Ellie May is amazing on leash. She walks at a heel without needing correction! Of course, she wouldn't mind at all if she were carried most of the time, but she does love following that nose of hers so likes to walk at least part of the time.
Ellie May does very well in a crate all night long and to travel, though she may protest for a little bit at first. She loves to play with the other dogs at her foster home and even likes the cat. Ellie May is small and so needs to go to a home where any children are at least 10 and older.
Please email email@example.com to request and application and/or more information about Ellie May.
Other Pets at Throw Me A Bone Dog Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Ellie May, a Oakley Dachshund/Miniature Pinscher dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Dachshund/Miniature Pinscher for sale in Oakley, or seeking a Dachshund/Miniature Pinscher dog from a breeder in Oakley.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Oakley already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Oakley breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Dachshund/Miniature Pinscher breeders who help with Dachshund/Miniature Pinscher rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Oakley paves the way for another one to be saved.

Adult Daily Activity Limitations, by Age Group and Type
Caring for an older adult? Be aware that those over age 75 are three times more likely to need help with daily activities.
Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian, noninstitutionalized U.S. population. Persons with unknown limitation status were excluded from the denominators.
Based on response to the question, "Because of a physical, mental, or emotional problem, does [person] need the help of other persons with personal care needs, such as eating, bathing, dressing, or getting around inside the home?
Based on response to the question, "Because of a physical, mental, or emotional problem, does [person] need the help of other persons in handling routine needs, such as everyday household chores, doing necessary business, shopping, or getting around for other purposes?"
In 2006, adults aged >75 years were nearly three times as likely as those aged 65--74 years to require the help of another person in performing activities of daily living (e.g., eating, dressing, or bathing) and instrumental activities of daily living (e.g., household chores or shopping).
