PM: Half the elected Hamas government is in prison. So there are Hamas prisoners, there are Hamas sympathizers, there are Hamas militants. You name it, there is every range of them. They're not all entirely Hamas, but there is a good number of Hamas representatives of the other Palestinian factions and also of Fatah. But every time Israel feels that it needs to make a gesture to the Fatah leadership, what they do is they release a handful of Fatah prisoners—never Hamas prisoners.
KB: My sense has been that everyone who is identified as a member of Hamas is automatically categorized as a member of the militant arm of the organization, as opposed to people who might be part of the public service branch.
PM: That's very true. In the writing of the narrative, the objective of the spin on all sides is to cast the other side in simple, bad terms. Make it all black, make it all white, try to airbrush out the gray. Now there's a lot of gray that has to be dealt with and has to be considered.
Look at some of the names of the people who before and after the recent Gaza crisis have said that Hamas has to be allowed a seat at the table, Hamas had to be brought into the negotiating process. You're talking about people like Efraim Halevy, former head of Mossad. Not a fly-by-night or a shallow man. He makes a very clear and careful distinction between Hamas as national patriots, as opposed to an Al Qaeda-type terrorist group. People like Tony Blair this week, people like Colin Powell before this whole crisis, people like Prince prince Turki Al-Faisal, former head of Saudi intelligence, who is not a lightweight in the region.
These are people, and I'm giving you names from all sides there, who have weight and reputation and savvy in their sense of what's happening on the ground or what needs to happen. But one of the things that has happened in the Middle East for the last sixty years is that people have been talking about what has to happen, and nobody has ever made it happen.
KB: What is the conversation like in Australia?
PM: It varies. There is a range of opinion and levels of sympathy for Hamas or for Israel. There's an attempt to tell both sides of the story. I've had the luxury of writing a book and immersing myself in the twenty years of Hamas's existence. So for me, I've been able to come to it with this broad sense of the history as opposed to the daily cut and thrust. And reporters and commentators, a lot of them writing about it these days get locked into that bigger narrative that is being crafted around them and, in quite in a deliberate way, for them.
KB: Talk about what it's like to report in Gaza. What are the challenges for a reporter working there?
PM: I work with an interpreter, as do most of my colleagues. Gaza is, as a journalist, a rare place. Just because, because it's so small, it's very difficult for you not to find the people you want. It's an easy patch to work for the journalists. People can't leave. If you go to their office or you go to their home, chances are you're going to find them. Because they're all locked in, they're happy to talk at length about their circumstances and the circumstances of the Palestinian people and what it means. There's an incredible resilience of the people, and you would have to say that's one of the traits of the Palestinian people that we have seen over and over. I mean, look at what they have been through in sixty years and they're still refusing to fall over.
There's a quote in the book from Yasser Arafat before he died, a hundred years after the Balfour conference. It was a few weeks before he died, Arafat told a reporter, "One-hundred-seven years after the founding of the global Zionist movement at the Balfour conference, Israel has failed to wipe us out. We are here, in Palestine, facing them." And then he added, and this is the line that would have had great resonance in the U.S., he said, "We are not red Indians." And that's what you see in Gaza, you see it in the daily lives, the daily existence of the people. They are still there, despite decades of privation. And they're not going anywhere. Someday, they're going to have to be reckoned with. That's what their history says. One of the lines that many Israeli commentators use is that Israel is still fighting the seventh day of the Six-Day War, with good reason.

Reviews of Beho Beho
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Beho Beho review
wonderful to be back. Hospitality , game viewing-drives and walks food and company all brilliant
Read more about the whole safarirepeat trip better than the first
Beho Beho is like our African family. The guides and staff are simply exceptional . We were in Banda 5, the "honeymoon suite" with a spectacular new outdoor bathtub.
Read more about the whole safariBeho Beho lives up to its reputation
We had great expectations of Beho Beho and these were fully met. The Selous combined perfectly with Ruaha, providing different and contrasting scenery and excellent game viewing, while maintaining the feeling of complete isolation. For example we had long game drives to Lakes Tagalala and Manze without seeing another vehicle all day.
While the location of other camps on the Rujifi river in the Selous may have some advantages, particularly in the dry season, the location and views from Beho Beho are stunning and the easy access to the lakes allows tremendous game viewing as the animals move in to drink and the predators follow - we saw 4 separate lion prides. The guiding (Salum and Sean) was top class and evening walks from the camp with Sacha were a particular highlight for us and led to close encounters with elephant, buffalo, giraffe, etc.
The bandas are exceptional and the food and variety of dinner and lunch locations was excellent allowing continual game viewing in the valley below and at the local waterhole where we were lucky enough to see a leopard during dinner. The atmosphere in the camp was excellent and Tam and Sacha's easy manner made us feel very welcome. Beho Beho is luxury in the bush and for us combined very well with the more earthy Mwagusi in the Ruaha.
There are special places in the world and this is a very special place with very special people. The variety of game viewing is outstanding but it is the people that make this an exceptional place. Sasha and Tam are a couple made in heaven who spread their happiness to every corner of the camp.
The game viewing is splendid, the walking fantastic and the visit to the lake stunning, add to this some of the best food in Africa and you start to understand why it really is a must visit place
If there ever was a "once"... this would be it. A once in a lifetime holiday, in a once in a lifetime location, with amazing scenery, wildlife and importantly fantastic characters. Attention to detail was impeccible, we felt spoilt for our entire stay. Thanks to Sacha and Tam for ensuring all ran smoothly and to Sean, Onesmo and Salum for their expert guiding.
Memories of this stay will be etched on our minds forever...

Very comfortable.Welcoming staff. Amazing location with excellent guiding. Huge flexibility - everything arranged around your wishes. Very thoughtful. Delicious food especially the Swahili lunch. Rooms excellent - beautifiully decorated.
Walking safari a great and new experience for us.
Breafast a bit weak by comparison - saved by amazing bacn & egg rolls.
Tam & Sacha run a very good and considerate team.
Would definitly go back and recommend.
Beho Beho review
sacha and tam doing a marvellous job all staff entertaining and superb. thank you for a wonderful experience
Read more about the whole safari"excellent" is too weak a word for it
Beho Beho is an unforgetable experience! First of all, its location is breath-taking - the views are fabulous. The camp itself is a very stylish, yet an absolutely unpretentious place - it is luxurious in many respects, but paradoxically it does feel like home.
The drives and walks were fantastic - we cannot imagine a better first safari trip... The guides we had were very professional and knowledgeable, they always went out of their way to show and tell us as much as possible.
The whole place is run impeccably. The staff was very friendly, competent and always smiling. Every part of the service - from the laundry to the cleaning - was just perfect.
As for the food, it was always delicious and served in a lovely way. The wake-up tea is a great idea - it's an excellent way to wake up before the morning drive. The idea of serving lunch and dinner at several locations makes every meal special. And the surprise breakfast at Tagalala Lake is unforgettable.
It's a very special place and we are definitely going to go back there one day. The only worry is we are always going to compare every other place to Beho Beho from now on and the result will always be the same: Beho Beho rules! ;)
Beho Beho review
Sacha and Tam were delightful and managed everything so well. A superb swimming pool.
We will return.

Clinical psychologist Cynthia M. Bulik is an expert on binge eating and has written a new book on how to conquer food cravings.
In "Crave," Bulik discusses just how much genetics play a role in the disorder and explain why people crave the foods they do.
Read an excerpt of "Crave" below and click here to visit Binge Eating Disorder Association's Web site. .
~ HealthDay News
It's a common scenario played out in millions of households around the country every single day: a woman eats her favorite ice cream straight from the carton until she reaches the bottom, or a man goes to his favorite sports bar and practically inhales 20 buffalo wings — each is simply trying to satisfy intense, at times overwhelming, cravings. Some crave sweets; others crave pasta — whatever the target — it finds it's way from hand to mouth.
Every binge is different, just as every craving is different and every binge eater is different, but the scenario is most often the same: binge-eaters like to be alone with their behavior, often turning to late-night, early morning or even what I call "backseat" binges to ensure that no one sees their so-called "shameful" activities. Maybe the kids are asleep, the parents are out of town, the spouse is still at work, or the roommate just left for that big business trip or is still taking her semester exam.
My patients have told me countless horror stories of how far they went to conceal a binge; driving across city, county, or even state lines so no one they know will witness them driving from fast food restaurant to convenience store, or binging from drive-thru to drive-thru in record time. Some have even hidden in a closet with a grocery bag full of clandestine food.
For those willing to look a little more deeply past the carefully constructed façade, some telltale signs of a classic binge eater might be: snack cake wrappers wedged between sofa cushions, "caches" of food hidden throughout the house, fast food receipts stacked like Monopoly money in glove boxes and greasy wrappers littering the car floorboards. But not everyone leaves a trail; some binge eaters spend as much time covering their tracks as they do shopping for the binge itself.
Regardless, the cravings can seem insatiable. Day or night, alone or with someone just in the other room, the binge-eater can hardly refuse the cravings that cause him or her to ingest 500, 1,000 or even sometimes as many as 3,000 or more calories in a single sitting.
The urges to eat are often as intense as they are spontaneous; we will talk later in this book about what triggers a mere craving or a full-fledged binge episode, but patients have told me that when it happens, for whatever reason, they feel "powerless" to resist the urge and often "zone out" while eating. So while the initial craving may be for a certain food group, restaurant, snack cake, or donut shop, what happens during the binge itself has very little to do with taste. Recently a colleague of mine confessed to me that she was concerned that her husband might be a closet binge eater. When I asked her why she thought that, she admitted that she had caught him feasting on a rather peculiar binge of saltine crackers and mayonnaise in the middle of the night!

Trade Analysis: Tokarski Dealt to Habs
Submitted by chad on February 14, 2013 - 11:15Longtime Tampa Bay Lightning prospect goaltender Dustin Tokarski was traded this morning to the Montreal Canadiens for former Lightning goaltender Cedrick Desjardins.
Desjardins, 27, has appeared in 22 games this season with the Hamilton Bulldogs of the American Hockey League, compiling a record of 7-13-2 with a 2.94 goals-against average and .905 save percentage. The Edmundston, New Brunswick, native has played in two career NHL games, both with the Lightning during the 2010-11 season, picking up a pair of victories while recording a 1.00 goals-against average and .968 save percentage.
Prospect of the Week: February 11, 2013
Submitted by chad on February 12, 2013 - 16:35We continue our Prospect of the Week award, an honor (virtually) given to one Tampa Bay Lightning prospect for their recent contributions on and off the ice.
The Prospect of the Week for February 12 is … Alex Killorn, C/W, Tampa Bay (NHL – USA)
More than five years after his draft day, Alex Killorn made his NHL debut for the Tampa Bay Lightning at the world's most famous arena.
Killorn, a third round pick of the Bolts in 2009, had an assist on Sunday in the Lightning's 5-1 loss to the Rangers at Madison Square Garden. Killorn started on the third line, but worked his way up to a scoring line with Vincent Lecavalier and Teddy Purcell by game's end. He brought grit on the forecheck and his willingness to play in front of the net resulted in an assist.
The Lightning brought Killorn to the big club to add size and skill to the Bolts' third line. Dana Tyrell was waived and assigned to AHL Syracuse.
Panik Brings Size, Skill to Lightning
Submitted by chad on February 11, 2013 - 19:38For the second time in two days, the Tampa Bay Lightning recalled one of their top prospects from the AHL's Syracuse Crunch.
On Sunday, the Bolts announced that center/winger Alex Killorn would join the NHL club for his NHL debut against the New York Rangers. Killorn had an assist and played well in a 5-1 loss to the Rangers.
On Monday, the NHL club put forward Ryan Malone on injured reserve and called-up second year pro Richard Panik. The Slovakian winger is expected to make his NHL debut at home against the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday.
Panik is second on the Crunch in goals with 21 and fourth in points with 35 in 43 games. His plus-19 rating is tied for second on the club and third in the league. He sits fourth in the AHL in goals.
He is a logical replacement for Malone, who plays a power forward role with the big club. Panik is a skill forward in a power forward's body and exhibits a power forward's mentality in traffic. While listed at 6-1, his strength is impressive as players frequently bounce off him when trying to make a hit. He's not shy about dropping the gloves and he's already blown last year's penalty minute total of 62 out of the water (79).
AHL Game Night: 2-10-13 Crunch at Phantoms
Submitted by pete on February 10, 2013 - 17:33Last night's collapse continues into today's match.
Riku Helenius allowed 4 goals on 14 shots for the loss before giving way to Dustin Tokarski, who allowed 2 on 12 shots the rest of the way. At some point you'd like one of your two championship pedigree goaltenders to step up and act like it and steal you a game rather than getting lit up like Roman candles.
First Period
ADK Gustafsson, (4) , 7:02
Second Period
ADK Mangene, (2) (Sim), 0:37
ADK Dimmen, (3) (Mangene, Sim), 10:56
ADK Laliberte, (2) (Syvret, Akeson), 12:34 (PP)
Third Period
ADK Eddy, (2) (Wellwood, Lauridsen), 1:30
ADK Laliberte, (3) (Akeson, Noebels), 13:21
SYR Johnson, (23) (Connolly, Neilson), 18:38 (PP)
This is the kind of embarassing loss where you'd expect Julien BriseBois to start looking to make some moves, now. The Crunch let some valuable veteran components like Segal, Smith, and Jackson walk over the offseason with the thought there was enough good youth to handle it. And, yes, there is a lot of good youth. But, in my mind, a piece needs to be added to, at the very least, try to fill some of what was lost between Conacher and now, possibly, Alex Killorn, to Tampa Bay.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the Andrea Bocelli song, see Melodramma (song).
Not to be confused with melodrama.
Melodramma (plural: melodrammi) is an Italian term for opera, used in a much narrower sense by English writers[1] to discuss developments in the early 19th-century Italian libretto. Characteristic are the influence of French bourgeois drama, female instead of male protagonists, and the practice of opening the action with a chorus.
It should not be confused with Victorian stage melodrama (drama of exaggerated intensity), to which it seems to be, however, related, or with melodrama (spoken declamation accompanied by background music) (in Italian, melologo), both of which are spelled without a double m. [2]

EAST PROVIDENCE — Dennis Bell is sweaty and red-faced. Leading a spin class at HealthTrax fitness center, he pedals his bike furiously, thrusts his clenched fist into the air and screams over loudspeakers blaring Queen's "We Will Rock You."
"Pick it up!" he yells in the darkened, windowless room early one recent Sunday morning. "Go, go, go!"
Bell looks nothing like a typical spinning instructor. He is neither young nor slim. He wears neither Spandex nor muscle-revealing tank tops. He's a 59-year-old guy in a loose T-shirt and baggy shorts with salt-and-pepper hair and matching beard.
Drawn by his energy and charisma, Bell's classes are usually full.
"Take a nice, deep breath," he calls out. "Stay with me!"
Six months earlier, it was the other way around: Bell's class was pleading for him to take a deep breath and stay with them.
Bell doesn't remember any of it. Not his plummet from the bike. Not the rush of people toward him. Not the chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth breaths his students administered.
It was Thanksgiving morning, and Bell was in full cardiac arrest. He all but died right in front of them.
The odds say he should have.
They call him Wildman.
In front of his classes, Bell is all rock and roll. He plays Elvis Presley and The Clash. He sings along while gesturing with his arms, sometimes to emphasize certain lyrics.
"Ohh yeah!" he calls out.
He's also a motorcycle racer, no sport for the faint of heart. He's still not ready to give it up. It was his racing, in fact, that got him to exercise. As he got older, he realized that to stay competitive, he'd have to stay fit.
So while working as a business director for East Side Clinical Laboratory and raising a son in Rehoboth with his wife, he began strength training and aerobic exercise. Soon he found himself instructing others.
When he was introduced to spinning — cycling in a group on stationery bikes — he was immediately hooked.
"The effect I got from it was dramatic," he says. "I became very competitive in [motorcycle racing] later in life."
About five years ago, Bell got certified to teach spinning and was leading classes six days a week. He noticed a big change in his health. His weight dropped and his blood pressure fell. His resting pulse rate was 47 and his cholesterol level was 127.
Apart from a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease a year ago, for which he began to take medication for tremors, he was feeling good.
On Thanksgiving morning, Bell and his students were eager to burn some calories before the big feast.
"We were having a great class," says Dawn Breman, a regular. "He was standing and spinning. All of a sudden, he tipped over. It was just a thud. He didn't make a sound. I knew it was bad."
The class sprang into action. Some ran for help. Some turned off the music and turned on the lights. Some moved bikes to make a path for the paramedics soon to arrive.
Fortunately for Bell, three people in the class trained in CPR rushed to his side: cosmetic surgeon Yoash Enzer, prison guard Kyle Cordeiro and retired Providence police information officer Gene Riccio.
"He was unresponsive. His color was terrible," says Cordeiro.
He and Riccio took turns performing mouth-to-mouth.
"It was a very frightening situation," Riccio says.
In the rush of events, an automated external defibrillator at the club was never used. Then East Providence paramedics arrived. They used their defibrillator and rushed Bell to the hospital, where he was shocked again.
"He was gray and ashen and flaccid," said Melissa Curran, who was in the Thanksgiving class and is a pediatric nurse practitioner. "All I could think is, 'Oh my God, my friend just died.' The likelihood of survival is very slim."
Indeed, the odds of surviving cardiac arrest are long.
Unlike a heart attack, which may be preceded by chest pain or shortness of breath, cardiac arrest strikes without warning. The coronary electrical system abruptly malfunctions and the heart stops beating normally.
Chester Hedgepeth, one of Bell's cardiologists, suspects Bell's heart rate spiked to 250 beats a minute or more. At that point, "it's fluttering — no blood is moving." And without blood circulating through his brain, Bell instantly passed out.
Only about 8 percent of people who go into cardiac arrest outside of a hospital survive, according to the American Heart Association. Fewer than a third are even given CPR by a bystander.
Hedgepeth, executive chief of cardiology for Care New England, said Bell's tale of survival is "amazing on so many different levels."
"He's fortunate that the cardiac arrest happened in a public place where people could start CPR and call 911," says Hedgepeth. "He's lucky to have made it to the hospital. He's fortunate that his heart function remained normal despite having no blood flow for several minutes. He's fortunate that he was in the good shape he was in; he has a good amount of reserves. The better shape your body is in when it's under stress, the better it handles it."
Bell didn't resume consciousness until later that night at Rhode Island Hospital.
"My wife and family were around me. I remember thinking this doesn't look like the Thanksgiving table to me," he says. Learning that his heart had quit on him "was a shock to me and everyone else."
Despite the role CPR played in saving Bell, it's far less helpful than a defibrillator, "which can really change the course of cardiac arrest," Hedgepeth notes.
A few days after collapsing, Bell had triple-bypass heart surgery.
Hedgepeth, who wasn't Bell's doctor until after the operation, later explained to him that he had been living with arterial blockages for years. Having low cholesterol and being fit couldn't inoculate him against a family history of heart disease, he told him.
"All of my mom's brothers died of this," Bell says.
Bell was determined to regain his fitness, but his recovery was slower and more difficult than he had expected.
"All of the tremendous ability I had to breathe was all gone in a moment," he says. "Just walking from the hospital bed to the door was a chore. I couldn't believe I had fallen that far."
An artery from his arm and veins from his legs were used to repair his heart, and so those areas took a while to heal. And with it being winter, his doctors confined his activities to the indoors. His outlook darkened.
"Because I'm a trainer, I knew the things I had to fix. One was my attitude," he says. "You are either going to get onto the saddle again or be a cardiac cripple for the rest of your life, waiting for the next bad thing to happen."
He began walking indoors and bought a stationary bike for his house. Things improved, but Bell still felt he couldn't exercise vigorously.
By then he was seeing Hedgepeth, who recommended a change in one of his key medications — a beta blocker. To protect Bell, it was actually limiting his heart rate and interfering with his ability to exert himself. Hedgepeth switched him to another drug with a subtler effect on heart rate.
It made all the difference. Soon Bell had his sights set on getting back in front of his old spinning class.
That day arrived June 29.
"There was a lot of cheering and handshakes and hugs," he says. "I said 'Happy Thanksgiving.' It was fairly emotional at times. I apologized to everyone. I said I didn't mean to die in front of you like that. It was traumatic for some of them."
A week later, during his second class back, his good humor is in full display. When a photographer gets on the floor near where he landed, he quips, "Hey, that's my spot."
People laugh knowingly.
But there is work to do, sweat to be sweated. Bell urges the class to stand, sit and stand again. And to spin faster, push harder.
"Add some more resistance!" he tells them, flashing a thumbs-up sign. "Get out of your comfort zone. Oww, yeah!"
At one point, he gets off the bike and goes around the room, encouraging each rider with a quick look or touch.
"This guy means a lot to a lot of people. He's a leader. He's an inspiration," says Cordeiro, who followed Bell to the hospital.
Says Breman, "It goes to show you the shape he's in and the drive he's got."
To learn about the importance of CPR and how to do it, go to the American Heart Association's website: www.heart.org
About cardiac arrest
Sudden cardiac arrest occurs when electrical impulses in the heart become scrambled, causing the heart to stop beating.
A heart attack, which is different, happens when the blood flow to part of the heart muscle is blocked. That can cause cardiac arrest.
Nearly 383,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur every year in the United States.
Many victims appear healthy and have no known heart disease.
For every minute without life-saving CPR and defibrillation, chances of survival decrease 7 to 10 percent.
Fewer than 8 percent of victims who suffer a cardiac arrest outside of a hospital setting survive.
Only 32 percent of cardiac arrest victims get CPR from a bystander.
About 70 percent of Americans lack up-to-date CPR training.
Home is the setting for 88 percent of cardiac arrests.
Eighty-eight percent of cardiac arrests occur at home

"It's drier than the banana breads with butter/eggs, but this is an excellent heathier alternative that's full of flavor!"
"This was delicious! We served this over rice. The only addition was some fresh thyme and italian parsley. Thanks for posting!"
"These were tasty. Very simple to make too. I did have problems with the carmelized sauce and had to take it out of the oven after 10 minutes so that it didn't burn. I'll probably roast the cashews before coating them in the sauce when I make these in the future. Roasting the cashews on the stove might also work. Thanks!"
"These were really good. I marinated the tomatoes for about an hour and added the spice to the marinade (didn't use mayo). Very tasty - just the right amount of balsamic."
"This was a really good shrimp recipe. I was unsure about the brown sugar, but it worked well. I would like more pepper in this to contrast the sweetness though. Thanks, Sherry, and congrats on the football pool win!"
"Jim, this was great. The chicken came out very moist, and there was a delicious crunchy layer on the outside from the potato flakes. Congrats on the football pool win :-D"
"I agree with most of the other reviewers - this drink was just too strong. All that I could taste was the brandy. I had to add more apple cider, and then the drink was much better. Sorry, I hate to leave bad reviews.. I actually liked this drink a lot with the extra apple cider."
"This is a delicious sweet bread! I like the apple-maple flavor, and the nutty topping adds an extra wow factor. Thanks Jim!"

Garden club plants new Cottage Grove City Hall garden
After several cloudy, rainy days, sunshine and warm weather made planting the Cottage Grove garden that much brighter.
The Pineridge Garden Club has planted the city's garden annually for the last 25 years but members shared their excitement last week about planting the garden in front of the new City Hall on Ravine Parkway.
"It's a fun experience because we get to start from scratch this year," garden club member Claudia Glass said. "It's a whole new concept."

Angelina Jolie as ''Cyborg''? Paul Rudd as peroxide-blond ''Gen-Y Cop''? Daniel Craig as a ''Mr. Miyagi'' type? Faves in roles you won't believe!
Costarring Donovan Leitch and Jill Schoelen
Tagline: ''Some people would kill to fit in''
In 2001, we asked Brad Pitt which movie he would wipe off his résumé. Without pausing he said, ''I did a teen horror movie. I'll give you that one. It's called Cutting Class. Actually, I've never seen it.'' Well, we have and it's atrocious. Not just because Pitt was 25 when he starred in this teen-slasher dud as a horny high school jock who appears unable to dribble a basketball convincingly. And not because it's a whodunit where you know exactly who did it in the first five minutes. No, it's mostly because when Pitt winds up with his head clamped in a vise during the film's climax, the audience knows exactly how he feels.
Most Embarrassing Moment Pitt dresses in one of his girlfriend's father's suits and tells her that while her dad is bigger than he is, he's bigger ''where it really counts.''

Dear Americans,
Can we please come together for the common good?
Can we please not be Democrat or Republican for just a while?
Can we please return to the values we once learned when we were small and untainted?
Can we please be kind to one another? Listen to one another without blaming each other and calling each other names that hurt our feelings and degrade our self worth?
Can we plese learn again to listen without prejuduce, without scorn, without judgement?
Can we please communicate in a manner that shows respect for all beliefs, opinions and a right to think and espress our deepest feelings without reproach?
Can we please be liberal with love, respect, generosity, understanding, empathy, trust, openess, innocence and fairness?
Can we please be conservative with ill feelings, snap judgment, hurtful remarks, visciousness, exageration and hate for those who are different?
Can we please put all labels aside, stop defining the beliefs of others as ignorant, false or otherwise without solid foudation or factual by our own definition?
Can we please put aside our own egos, belief systems and dictates until we can all learn again how to put our combined energies to work for the common good for all?
Can we once again grasp the meaning of being an American? Born in a country that honors freedom, individual rights, respect for our neighbors, communities and the generosity that allows for all people in our country to come together in times of crisis and times of joy?
Can we please recognize the division that weakens us as a nation and threatens us as a whole?
Can we please, please, just be one people, under God, strong, focused, determined and undaunted by the challenges we face at home and in the world?
I respectfully ask you: Can we please be Americans first and define what it is to be amoung the luckiest, safest, most privlidged, blessed and genuinely good people on this planet?
Please help us all to define this important role, undivided, standing together, in good times and in bad, honoring our flag, our forefathers, our families and our lives.
As soon as you sell this idea to the likes of Newt Gingrich, Tom Delay, Karl Rove, Richard Armey, and all the other Republicans who purposely drove wedges between the parties, making bipartisanship a near impossibility, I'll be happy to get on board.
When Vandals are tearing down the gates of your city, you don't get them to stop by appealing to sweet reason.
ALL of us need to just stop and think---on our own.
The demonization of liberals and of Democrats in general was instituted by Gingrich, and carried forward by Armey, Delay, Rove and others to a large extent well before some Democrats joined in such efforts. Sad to say, the bankrupt nature of Democrat ideals contributed to the poisonous atmosphere which, I predict, will not be easily nor quickly reversed.
My psyche felt brusied from so much negativity all around and longs for just a bit of wisdom from the heart and soul of my beloved countrymen. Dare I say, ala Reagan?
Should I say, pretty please?
There are two kinds of people in the world: People who think there are two kinds of people in the world, and people who don't.
There is a struggle for power right now between those who would be pluralistic (indulging freedom) and those who would be coercive (forcing people to be like them on pain of criminal penalty).
Civil language is only half of it. If you know what it is to be passive aggressive, you know why it is a trap to agree to be civil. The Republicans have been laying a lot of passive aggressive traps and that can be done with a civil tone. Bring that into the bargaining equation and then you might have something.
I think people should be civil, but I don't think they should agree to be. I think they should merely aspire to do it voluntarily. Because sometimes you have to raise your voice without giving your opponent the right to say you're a hypocrite for doing so.
Civil Democrat: John McCain seems to be misrepresenting himself, and he's telling truly offensive lies about Obama.
Civil Republican 1: That can't be; John McCain is a former POW, and he wouldn't tell lies.
Civil Republican 2: All politicians tell lies--Obama is just as much at fault in this regard.
Uncivil Republican: John McCain is only telling the truth about a terrorist sympathizer who will destroy this country if he becomes President.
What do you do to come together when the leader of one side really is bad news?
Thanks very much for your honest perspectives and taking the time to chime in. You make your points without the slash and trash verbiage for the party or candidate you oppose, for the most part.
I appreciate the passion of both perspectives, all parties and the differences that make us all thinkers, participants in life and full of energy for our beliefs. Putting the dial on mute would be a far worse alternative.
Anyone who has paid attention to the campaign itself should clearly understand it as a justifiable poke in the eye after the way the McCain campaign tried to paint Obama as one who wants to teach sex education to kindergartners.
And what's with the "taxpayer money" beef? How about the "taxpayer money" used to line the pockets of KBR and Blackwater? Their take dwarfs what PP gets from us taxpayers.
Please, indeed.
1. How do you define the "common good"? How can we all agree to come together for it if we have differing definitions of it?
2. I'm OK without the partisan labels. Personally I find them constricting.
3. "Values" is kind of a dicey word, Cathy, and I don't know what you mean by it. My small kids and my neighbors' small kids are learning different values. I teach mine to think independently, to listen more and talk less, to respect differences, to refrain from judging others, and many more. My neighbor teaches hers things that are more achievement oriented and rigid, like never be late, work for the reward, there is an absolute moral code and it's found in the bible, etc.
4. Totally with you on this one.
5. Yes.
6. Yes again.
7. Yes on the liberal thing.
8. Did you mean this or is there a typo here?
9. Yes again, but I find that you're repeating yourself.
10. Again with the common good. What is it and when have we ever come together for it?
11. Hmmm. "Once again grasp the meaning of being American." Wow. I don't know what "being American" means. It doesn't mean one thing. I don't know it and you don't know it. And early Americans most certainly didn't know it. Hence the enslavement of an entire race of people born here, a ton of panic-driven laws to assimilate newly minted Americans who spoke funny and wore foreign clothes in the 1850's, and a virtual kidnapping and internment of Japanese-Americans in the 1940's, just to name a few.
12. As for recognizing the division that weakens us as a nation: what division is that, precisely? The one of partisan politics? If yes, then I'm sort of with you. The founders never really wanted the two-party system, or at least didn't codify it. But since we have it, I'm not sure what to do about people with polar views. I mean, which of your bedrock beliefs will you give up for unity's sake? Abortion? taxes? the environment? (I don't know what your hot-button issues are or if you have any. Maybe unity itself is what you like best. I know what you mean, if that's it. That's why I like Barack Obama. I like diplomacy and dialogue. But it feels simplistic to expect people to just "come together" as you ask.)
13. On being "one people:" I like being me. And you know what? I like diversity. There's just nothing to learn from an echo chamber, which is why I avoid listening to talk shows and engaging in too much conversation where they're preaching to the choir. And the "Under God" thing might elicit a few objections from some salon and OS members. I'm OK with it.
14. I'm a humanitarian first. A person first. THEN an American. I just don't see why some guy I don't know in Detroit should take mental priority over some guy I don't know in Egypt. I never did get that sentiment. When I talk about nationalism and love of country, I'm mostly, like Teddy Roosevelt, talking about the place. Also, I think it's insulting to people all over the world to suggest that Americans are the most "genuinely good" people on the planet. The millions of protesters to the Iraq War in Italy and France and the Scandinavian countries may have something to say about our "goodness." Americans voted twice for a President who started an immoral and illegal war that has taken, in addition to around 4,000 American lives--over a million Iraqi lives. As for luckiest, safest, etc., I'm not sure why Switzerland or whatever doesn't qualify for those adjectives too.
15. I do appreciate when citizens come together for common cause--and the immediate aftermath of 9/11 comes to mind. I don't mean the week later when plans to turn the thing into a war were already happening and people were being criticized for showing even a modicum of curiosity about why certain Muslims hated us--I mean the very first few hours and days. Yes, that felt good.
I hope this doesn't come across as snarky. I just find this post rather simplistic.
Thank you for all the time you put into this response as it is much appreciated and noted.
But "simplistic," no. Simply expressed, yes.
This was not meant to be a science project and dissected to this degree, however, I am awed by your detail and desire to reframe this simple piece.

BMW Z3 Replacement Head Gasket Information
The unique appeal of a high-class BMW is the embodiment of top-notch know-how, design and function. A magnificent BMW fully utilizes an efficient engine plus its superb powertrain. Supercharged sets of wheels, like the powerful BMW Z3, were meant to be pushed to the limit, but afterwards given proper repairs. It's no shock that highly-skilled vehicle owners have it right about how to turbocharge the power of their BMW Z3 with high-end auto parts. BMW sells cars that are designed around high performance, and that means the Z3 simply won't deliver as intended without first-rate performance parts and accessories. The BMW you chose was assembled with care and craftsmanship; it should get replacement components with a similar high level of quality. Preserve your vehicle's critical systems by purchasing only the best top-notch parts and accessories. Your vehicle has a place in your heart due to its high performance and awesome style, so to have it running in top condition you need the acme in replacement parts. If BMW Z3 Head Gaskets cease functioning, it is most frequently because of engine overheating; it may also result from improper ignition timing. The most important task of the BMW Z3 Head Gasket is to furnish a good seal between the motor head and the main block, preventing contact between motor coolant and crankcase oil. The automobile's BMW Z3 Head Gasket is the most critical seal in the engine and needs to be as strong as the combustion assembly mechanism.

Qt Quick Components
Qt Quick Components provide an app framework and UI component library for Qt Quick. This article provides an overview of the available components.
Qt Quick Components provides a set of QML components for building user interfaces. These include components for managing pages (views) or tabs and the transitions between them, and also for user interface elements (e.g. listboxes, buttons etc) that can be used in those pages.
Separate Qt Quick Components libraries are provided for Symbian and MeeGo, and within these platforms there are also "Extras" components which are not part of the core sets. The current and future intention is to align the components as closely as possible.
The components are well documented in the developer library (see the #References below).
Porting apps written using Qt Quick Components for different platforms can be fairly straightforward - in some cases as simple as changing the import library. Note however that even in simple applications there can be subtle differences, and of course the design guidelines for the platforms are quite different.
One of the best porting guides on the wiki is Porting Symbian Qt Apps to Nokia N9. There are other guides on the Internet.

Jerry A. Coyne has been a professor at the University of Chicago in the department of ecology and evolution for twenty years. He specializes in evolutionary genetics and works predominantly on the origin of new species. He is a regular contributor to The New Republic, the Times Literary Supplement, and other publications. His most recent book is Why Evolution Is True.
In this discussion with D.J. Grothe, Jerry Coyne talks about extent and breadth of the evidence for evolution and how the reasons for believing in evolution are not as clearly argued in today's textbooks as they were fifty years ago. He contends that professional evolutionists may take evolution on faith, or on the authority of their intellectual forerunners. He explains how evolution is both a theory and a fact. He details the various kinds of evidence for evolution, including evidence from the fossil record, molecular biology, embryology, the existence of vestigial organs, biogeography, and from bad design. He explores how Darwin discovered evolution by natural selection without the evidence from the fossil record. He explains how sexual reproduction is the key to evolution, and talks about sexual selection. He discusses the Intelligent Design movement and exactly how many scientists are actually proponents of ID. He lists some genuine controversies within evolution, and states that they are indeed taught in the schools. He discusses the relationship of belief in evolution to disbelief in God. And he explains why he feels the need, as a scientist, to publicly speak out in defense of Darwinism.

Electro-acupuncture neurostimulation for voiding dysfunction –urge-frequency syndrome, urge incontinence, stress incontinence and unobstructive urinary retention by Prof.Siyou Wang Shanghai research insititte of acupuncture and meridian |
Date : TBC | Time: 10 am-4:30 pm | Full Price: £75.00 |
The Lecture:
- urge-frequency syndrome
- urge incontinence
- stress incontinence
- unobstructive urinary retention
About Lecture:
Electroacupuncture neurostimulation (EANS) is valuable in the situations above. EANS is a combination of acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine and electrical neuromodulation in Western medicine. It includes "four sacral points" EANS (electrical pudendal nerve stimulation, EPNS) and "four abdominal points" EANS (electrical iliohypogastric nerve stimulation, EINS). Strong EPNS can simulate pelvic floor muscle training to treat stress incontinence. Moderate EPNS or EINS can induce a strong inhibition of the micturition reflex and detrusor hyper-reflexia to treat urge-frequency syndrome and urge incontinence. Moderate EPNS or EINS may also interfere with the increased afferent activity arising from the urethral sphincter, restore the sensation of bladder fullness and reduce the inhibition of the detrusor muscle contraction to treat unobstructive urinary retention.
About Porf. Siyou Wang:
Wang Siyou graduated in combined traditional Chinese and Western medicine from Shanghai College of traditional Chinese medicine in 1986 and obtained a master's degree. He got Sasakawa medical scholarship and studied at Kitasato University medical school in Japan 1996-1997. He is now a professor and the director of neurobiological research section in Shanghai research institute of acupuncture and meridian and the director of third-level brain neurobiology laboratory of national TCM administration. Wang Siyou has worked for a long time on clinical and experimental studies of acupuncture treatment for chronic voiding dysfunction. He invented electro-acupuncture neuro-stimulation therapy of combined traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Electrical pudendal nerve stimulation for the treatment of stress incontinence and urgency-frequency syndrome has accepted by the international medical circles. A speech about electrical pudendal nerve stimulation for stress incontinence was delivered at 39th annual meeting of the international continence society in 2009. The research results on stress incontinence were published in BJU Int. and Neurourol Urodynam, and website UroToday. The research results on urgency-frequency syndrome were published in Int Urogynecol J. "Clinical and experimental studies of kidney-reinforcing and yang-warming acupuncture and moxibustion for female urethral syndrome" was awarded 2ed science and technology prize of national TCM administration in 1996. "The mechanism of action and clinical efficacy of electrical pudendal nerve stimulation in treating female stress incontinence" was awarded Shanghai 2nd science and technology prize of combined traditional Chinese and Western medicine in 2012. "Mechanism and clinical application of electroacupuncture neurostimulation treatment for urethral syndrome" was awarded Shanghai 3rd prize of medical science and technology in 2004.

my uncle gave me this mini 14 for my birthday, i shot it yesterday at his ranch. i hit the x on the silhouette target 28 times and had 2 more rounds in the 9 ring at 100 yards its freaking accurate, it doesn't hurt that i was taught to shoot by the worlds best instructors when i was a marine. i have read a lot of people say that they are not accurate and that it takes a lot of money to make them accurate. i say bull! you just need to know how to shoot.

Very nice rifle! Let's see some targets!!
People get the government they deserve.
stereotyping is wrong just because yours is accurate, dont paint them all with that brush. and afa me not knowing how to shoot, maybe, but ive got a wall full of awards that says otherwise. never the less, they are nice little guns. i still wont get rid of mine even though it wount hit the broad side of a barn from the inside! its still a fun gun to shoot and built off of a nice design. im glad you got a good one!
ruger said the reason they were inaccurate was they were being machined with old tools so they completely revamped everything all the newer models are supposed to be pretty accurate mines pretty good at a 100 yds.
I have a mini ranch stainless with composite stock and I dont miss much at 100 yrd with the iron sights and it does well with the scope out to 200yds I love it
Live free or die. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding what is for dinner. Liberty is a well armed lamb. I will give up my guns but I insist on being the last man to do so. John 3:16,10:10 Acts 11:7
I have a mini-14 and it's pretty accurate. 75 to 100 yards is were I find it to perform best. Not the most accurate .223 weapon out there, but still decent.
Great looking mini! Is it a 180 or 181 series? I really like the wood hand guard. I've got a couple mini's myself, one that has been modified and one is bone stock. They are great guns, however some start doing some funky things when the barrels get hot. But there's some neat stuff on the market to combat that nowadays. One thing is for sure; they are one of the most fun guns I've ever owned to shoot. Enjoy it!
nice rifle, wish i had family that gave me guns.
DON'T BUY DELL!!!!! BEWARE!!! The toes you step on today may be connected to the ass you kiss tomorrow. PM Tango about his upcoming SHARTFOO courses.
I had a Mini 14 and I loved it. The only negative was that it liked to throw brass for about a half a mile.
I've owned three Mini's over the years. I have one of the newer tactical models and LOVE it. I'm even starting to like it more than my AR's (though it will never replace my SOCOM 16).

Photos: Sandy Nguyen joins our list of alleged local cancer fakers
In its coverage of Sandy Nguen, who allegedly scammed $25,000 from friends and neighbors by pretending her son had cancer, 7News describes the alleged crime as "unbelievable."Photos, video and more below.
In truth, however, it's all too easy to believe someone would perpetrate such a hoax -- since it's happened several times in Colorado over recent years. Look below to see our coverage of three previous cancer hoaxes, followed by the details of allegations against Nguyen.
"Tausha Marsh, cancer faker: MySpace donation page still online even as she heads to jail"
Originally published September 1, 2010
In April 2009, we told you about Gunnison's Tausha Marsh, accused of faking cancer to collect thousands in donations.Tausha Marsh.
When she pleaded guilty to this crime in February, Marsh's MySpace and Facebook pages begging for bucks were still online. And even as she prepares to serve 36 days in jail, the MySpace page still lingers, complete with a pitch that looks more pathetic with each passing day.
The "About Me" portion of the MySpace page reads:
Thanks for Supporting Tausha!Tausha Marsh, 28, has been fighting bone cancer for four years and has been recently diagnosed with cervical cancer. Doctors in the U.S. have not given her a positive outlook, however she has been accepted as a patient by a cancer specialist in Amsterdam. This doctor specializes in alternative cancer treatments. She will be moving to the clinic early July 2008 and anticipates staying for 1 year for treatments. Cancer treatments are very expensive, and her doctor here in the U.S. estimates she will need $300,000 to cover treatments in Europe and to pay off her past medical bills. She needs all the support that she can get: thoughts, prayers and monetary donations are greatly appreciated. Tausha is a loving, energetic woman who is full of life. She graduated from Western State College of Colorado in 2004. Throughout her four years there, she was a scholarship player on the intercollegiate volleyball team, a walk-on for the basketball team for a year, and was very involved in the art department where she studied photography, painting, and graphic design. After graduation, she moved to Ft. Collins where she owns a photography business. In addition to her company, Tausha is frequently called to share her understanding and love for Special Education students and challenged groups within the area high schools. As an advid volleyball player, Tausha shares her talents through coaching at Loveland High School and in the Colorado State University Club Volleyball program. We will be hosting fundraising events on the Front Range of Colorado and in Gunnison, CO - stay tuned for dates and times. Thank you for your support. Let's help Tausha beat this and become healthy again!
Removing evidence of Marsh's admitted fraud from the public view would probably aid the healing process, too.
