To use rap music as a means for sparking conversations on contemporary issues such as violence, drug use and abuse, sex, and education.
Borgman, D. (2002, August 20). What to Believe? S. Hamilton, MA: Center for Youth Studies.
Some things on economics should be written by those outside the discipline or practice—by those bound neither by ideology nor profit interest to a particular view or practice of economics. For those of us who care but don't fully understand, the articles in the Business section of the New York Times (2002, August 8) serve a basic education.

Anguiano, S. (1997, March). Contextualized ministry to ethnic communities. A latin legacy. Ministry to Hispanic-Americans. Theology, News, and Notes, pp. 21-22.
Today, Latinos are the fastest growing ethnic minority in America. Hispanic children to comprise a majority in many public schools of Los Angeles. The Hispanic population is diverse; they converge in the U.S. from many different countries. However, there are cultural similiarities among most Latinos. For example, the cohesion in the nuclear family and the use of Spanish as primary language in the first and second generation families.
Although the Latino population enjoys preserving and celebrating its culture, even within the U.S., Latino and Anglo families need each other—especially in the church. In fact, adolescents of third generation Hispanics desire more diversity in the congregations. This yearning is more clearly understood through the words of the article's author:
The third-generation family is usually English speaking—responding to the need to secure a place in the American culture. What is important to remember, however, is that while the mother language may be lost, the cultural norms of family organization and family values may not be lost.
U.S. churches are trying to serve Hispanic families by planting predominantly Hispanic churches. However, many Hispanics would rather assimilate into established congregations; they would feel more comfortable in a ethnically diverse congregation which better reflects a multicultural America.
It is very important that the Church supports and builds diversity in order to reach out to the adolescents of third generation Hispanics.

Morgan, R.J. (2000, February 6). Salving the pain of the streets, Honduran youth go to glue. The Boston Globe, p. A15.
In cities around the world, poor children hang out, begging, ready to do simple tasks, committing petty crimes…and often sniffing glue. They are called street children, parking boys, dump kids, and other local names. There are 1,500 children living on the streets of Comayaguela, Honduras, and an estimated 5,000 nationwide. This article describes three years in the life of one of them, Charlie Reyes, as "incredibly simple but dangerous."
He would wake up on the hilly traffic-congested, smoke-filled streets of Tegucigalpa, and he would begin begging for money. "I would accumulate around 40 lampiras" or $2.70, said Reyes, who is now 7. The money would go for baby-food jars filled with Resistol, a shoe-solvent glue.
His day would be spent in the cloud of a glue high, his eyes glazed over and unfocused. It killed the hunger pains, erased the cold at night, and made the blows of the other children easier to withstand.
Those blows would come, sooner or later, every day. 'It was a very ugly life,' he said. 'The big people would always beat me. There were a lot of thieves.'
When he needed food, Charlie could scrounge a few scraps at a Burger King. 'I never spent money on food,' he said. The glue demanded every cent he could get.
Six months ago, Charlie walked into the medical clinic at the Casa Alianza—the Latin American branch of New York-based Covenant House. He was soon out of his glue stupor and safe from street predators. Now his eyes are shiny and clear, and Charlie mixes schooling and athletics in a home-like environment at an Alianza shelter.
The article goes on to tell how Charlie's place on the streets will be replaced by one or two incoming kids a day. Many come as victims to Hurricane Mitch, which devastated the country—killing 6000 and leaving 1.5 million homeless. There is a 15% increase in the number of street children in Tegucigalpa and Comayaguela since then.
Another young person who found hope in a shelter is Marvin Matute Martinez, 15.
'My family life wasn't bad. I was beat at times, but I knew how to handle it. I got drawn to the streets by my friends. But really they weren't my friends. They were nothing.'
Marvin was on the streets from age 6 to 9—when he was accepted into a shelter where he can stay until the age of 18.
'Thank God it happened, because I have learned a lot about getting ahead. I'm studying now, and I'm going to try for a profession. If I had stayed on the streets I probably would have died. Who knows what would have happened.'
Marijuana and crack cocaine are also a problem among—especially the—older street kids. Ones Italia Garcia, head psychologist at Casa Alanza explains:
'The youths that mention use of this drug (crack cocaine) are between 16 and 18 years old. And they are youths that usually have gone to other countries, especially Guatemala. The children from the streets of Tegucigalpa talk more of glue and marijuana.'
The glue business is run by adults or older youth. It is bought for about 100 lempiras ($7) per gallon, and then sold in baby-food jars for 10 lempiras ($.70). Dealers thus make about $35 a gallon. Even though selling glue to children was made criminal in 1996, the business still goes on near market places or under bridges clearly visible to those interested. Most street children (an estimated 95%) sniff glue—most going through one to five jars in a day.
Along with crime and drugs, prostitution is always present among homeless youth. According to Garcia:
'Seventy to eighty percent of the (young people) we see have been involved in prostitution. The boys don't like to talk about it. But over times it comes out.'
The pressures upon girls to become involved in prostitution are overwhelming. Misaela Mejia is an outreach worker for Casa Alianza. Twice a day, she and a male coworker visit 42 areas of the city where street kids hang out. " 'Most of the girls don't sleep on the street,' " she said. " 'Prostitution gives them money for a room, food, and drugs.' "
A real danger for street children are the police. Goaded by merchants, they are tempted to scare or even kill those seen to be public nuisances. Fifty unsolved murders of street children occurred in 1998. Casa Alianza is not only serving kids; they are advocates on their behalf. They are working for the prosecution of those exploiting them sexually in bars or selling them glue. Along with the United Nations, they have pushed for a new kind of training for police officers. Mejia describes the difference that has made:
They (the police) would do things to the kids like take their glue and pour it over their head and hurt them. Now we have more police sending kids to Casa Alianza.
There is also a campaign to get manufacturers of Resistol to create a nontoxic, water-based glue—and to add mustard oil making it more difficult to inhale.

Tillman, J.A., Jr. with Tillman, M. Why America Needs Racism and Poverty: An Examination of the Group Exclusivity Compulsion in America as the Natural Enemy of Rational Social Change in Race and Poverty Relations.
Bristol, MA: Four Winds Press.
(Download Why America Needs Racism & Poverty overview as a PDF)
The authors suggest that
The conflict between America's avowed policy of equality of opportunity and her institutionalization of arbitrary group exclusivity motifs which are designed to build a closed, not open, society is at the bottom of what has been called the perennial American dilemma in intergroup relations.
James Tillman, a social scientist and the director of several anti-poverty programs, disavows membership in either liberal or conservative approaches to racism and poverty. Neither is he an equalitarian, but he believes that social stratification can be just. He sees himself as an American pragmatist.
What is unique about this work among books on racism is that it begins with an anthropology that is theological in nature. The heart of racism is seen as the tendency of human nature to secure its identity by endowing its social group with an exclusivity denying entrance and implying inferiority to negative reference groups.
Liberalism's dogma of man's perfectibility is rejected. "The rhetoric of optimistic liberalism is dangerously deceptive...man is manageable, but not perfectible." The "self-defeating optimism and naïveté of contemporary liberalism" must be replaced with "social realism." (pp.iii, xi)
The conservative's belief in the righteousness of the system leads to the use of force and suppression to maintain order. Those "have nots" who rebel should be "viewed and treated as negative tokens." (pp.6-7).
The liberal works to help the "have nots" in a way that may "tinker with the system" but will not threaten the privileged status of liberals themselves. Liberalism's help ensures that the poor will not become rebels while the means encourages their remaining marginal members of society needing continuing aid.
What the Tillmans believe (James Tillman is now deceased) is that racism is only extinguished when individuals find that their identity is a higher reality than social comparison. The social class in America that is most oppressive and that needs most to change its mind is the middle class.
This particular book is primarily about neighborhood action. It argues for power at the grass roots. "To both the blacks and the poor, the central message of this book is direct, simple and clear: organize yourselves and take power if you must" (p. 255). This is the American way, as the authors see it. Only a coalition of interests in the lower class, with good will where it can be found among the middle and upper classes, can bring about effective change.
"America has a few years...to rid herself of the idolatries of racism and economic exclusivity..." Otherwise "she is doomed to an early and certain death as a democracy" (p. 260). It is the authors' belief, however, that
Black community viability—initiated and controlled by blacks and...ASSISTED by America's white remnant—will improve, extend and consolidate the American experiment....Blacks who are produced by such contemporary peoplehood may often be called ambitious, clannish, arrogant and pushy. Only such people, however, can make and keep whites sane and honest. Interaction between such blacks and America's whites can only produce a stronger and more vital and more vigorous America! (pp.266-67)
Stapells, Cathy. (May 16, 1999) 'When teens venture to the Dark Side — A parents guide to Satanism, cults and violent music.'
One study indicates 3% of teens are involved in Satanism. Another places the number as high as 20%.
Colin, age 18, says "Satanism fits into today's materialistic culture. It's stupid to put faith into something. we can't see. Satanism puts the individual first and teaches and teaches us not to be mindless followers."
"Sociologists say teen rebellion is a part of what draws some teenagers to satanic cults."
One social worker states — "Some_ experimenters are looking for something different. They're bored or they want to do something to get their parents' attention, and this certainly shakes up people."
The Internet opens doors to teens that they would have no know otherwise.
Teens. that are generally drawn to deviant subcultures tend to be outcasts from the mainstream teen subculture.
"It's a phase some kids go through, a fascination with different kinds of music. The music's a way to find a different meaning of life and to determine a value system,"

2. Should the church be doing more to educate parents in prevention?
3. How can fill the spiritual void of our teens?
Winfree, L.T., Jr. (1985). Peers, parents and adolescent drug use in a rural community: a two-way panel study. Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 14(6), 499-512.
This study investigates the way in which parent and peer relationships affect drug use patterns in adolescents. Throughout the past 20 years of drug research, links between adolescent drug use and peer and parent influence have been consistent. It has been established, without recorded exception, that drug using peers provide a supportive framework—a drug subculture—in which experimentation occurs more easily and frequently than normal (Bowker, 1974; Lawrence and Vellman, 1974). Research also concludes that general peer values, especially those related to drug use, result in detachment from parents as well as rejection of their values (Kandel, 1974; DeFleur and Garrett, 1970). Another related study indicates that, during the teen years, parental influence decreases while peer influence rises. The same researchers note that it is within this time that there is a greater incidence of adolescent drug involvement (Kandel and Adler, 1982). Factors of parental influence—particularly the drug-use patterns of parents—were shown to be important only when teens moved toward drugs other than alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana, but especially toward polydrug use (Kandel et al., 1976).
There is an empirical link between adolescent drug use and parent and peer influences. What these findings fail to reveal and what this researcher attempts to discover is the manner in which these factors of influence affect drug-use patterns.
The researcher asked, "What is the impact of changes in peer and parental relationships on youthful drug use?" In order to examine changes in relationships, it was necessary to collect data over an extended period of time. To meet this need, the researchers employed a design with a three-year interval between data collections.
The subjects of the study were student volunteers enrolled in all 12 grades of a rural Rocky Mountain public school district. The focus of the study was on a smaller sampling of these youths, those who took the survey while in grades 7-9 during 1979. Three years later (1982), students in grades 10-12 were surveyed again and were then matched with their prior responses. Only 94 students remained in the study through this process of elimination.
The three variables in this study were drug involvement, parental influence, and peer influence. The method of study involved a survey that asked questions in each of these areas.
The students were asked to select one from several drug patterns (varying from "never used" to "40 times or more" that year) that best represented their level of involvement with the drug in question (alcohol or marijuana). Three questions measured parental influence. The respondents were asked to rate the degree of difference that existed between their views on drugs and their parents' views. Next, they were asked to indicate the frequency with which they and their parents discussed drug oriented issues. Finally, they were asked to check the responses most accurately reflecting the content of their drug related discussions with parents. The answers provided as options on the survey limited the respondents to pro-drug or anti-drug discussions. To allow for response beyond these limited categories, an "other topics" category was provided. The students were allowed to check all topics that applied to their conversations with parents since it was recognized that parents and children might address more than one drug-related issue.
In regard to the peer variable, the survey used questions identical to those of the parental influence survey except that the respondents were then answering on reference to the influence of their close friends.
The study had a two-part analysis. First, the researcher sought to reveal the significant changes between 1979 and 1982 in both attitudes and behavior in relation to parents and peers. Second, the analysis examined the changes in alcohol or marijuana use during this three-year period.
This study had two goals. The first was to examine the extent to which drug use orientations and behaviors of a panel of teens had changed over a three-year period. The results indicated that the use rates of both alcohol and marijuana increased significantly between 1979 and 1982. While at the middle school level 36.2% of the panel claimed not to have had a drink in the previous year, in 1982 only 21.3% were still abstainers. Among those who drank in 1979 (60), far more increased their involvement (37) than remained at the same level (10) or drank less (13). On the other hand, 20 of the 1979 abstainers were drinking alcohol in 1982, accounting for 35.1% of those reporting increases in alcohol use over the three-year period.
Changes in marijuana use were similar. Non-involvement was the rule in both 1979 (85.1%) and 1982 (76.2%). Most 1979 abstainers (75%) were still abstaining in 1982 (95.2%). The indication here is that non-use in the middle school years is a greater protection against later marijuana use than the same status is a protection against later alcohol use. At the same time, most (83.3%) of the panelists who reported increased involvement with marijuana were drawn from the ranks of the uninitiated.
The survey included two types of drug discussions with parents (pro-drug and anti-drug). In both 1979 and 1982, it appeared that drug discussions with parents were a rarity. In 1979, almost two thirds of the children reported that they had never or rarely discussed drugs with their parents. Three years later, over one half (52.l%) still reported the same levels of inactivity. These increases were significant and outnumbered decreases two to one. Of discussions held with parents, most were anti-drug related with fewer than 10% of the children reporting any level of pro-drug discussion with their parents.
Conflict with parental view on drugs increased significantly from 1979 (36.2%) to 1982 (47.9%). Most (54) of the participants, though, did not change their observations from 1979 to 1982 with 72% of them reporting no differences.
The statistics that surprised this author regarded the change in peer drug oriented discussions over the three-year period. Both pro-drug and anti-drug discussion rates changed significantly. The surprising fact was that the increases in anti-drug discussions with peers outnumbered decreases 8 to 1. On the other hand, decreases in producing discussions outnumbered increases 2 to 1. Both sets of 1979 peer-discussion rates failed to be strong indicators of 1982 rates.
Although changes on the rate of drug discussion tended to include both positive and negative aspects of drug use, the level of youth/peer conflicts did not change significantly over the three years. This openness of discussion with little resulting conflict opposes the results for parental drug discussions where conflicts arose with limited discussion of the topic of drugs.
The second goal of the study was to examine the influence of the changes in orientation on current levels of drug involvement. It was found that the single best predictor of alcohol use in 1982 was alcohol use in 1979. Results indicated that though past behavior is a good predictor of future behavior, such links are apparently behavior specific: The level of 1979 marijuana use did not reveal much about 1982 alcohol involvement. Marijuana use in 1982 was best predicted by the level of involvement in 1979.
In terms of parent and peer influences on drug use, the outcome definitely fell in line with the author's predictions. Children with increased levels of conflict with parents regarding drugs were among those most heavily involved with alcohol in 1982. Both pro- and anti-drug discussions with peers seemed to indicate significant and positive effects on the current level of involvement. While it was anticipated that increased pro-drug discussions with close friends would be found among those heavily involved with marijuana, it was not expected that negative discussions would also impact on the current level of marijuana use.

In 1889, when the banker and financier Charlton Yarnall married Anna Brinton Coxe, he was marrying up. Coxe was living on the wealth generated by the family's massive mining concern, which had gotten its start here in the 1670s when Daniel Coxe began speculating in land. The Yarnells, slackers that they were, only began arriving here from Worcestershire, England in 1683. They noodled in at 580 acres in Delaware County and kept buying from there.
If you were Old Money in the late 19th century, you were quite the ruffian if you didn't have a city house near Rittenhouse Square. Charlton and Anna must have felt the pressure. Just four years into marriage Yarnall commissioned architect Frank Miles Day to design him a house at 17th and Locust Streets that would beat out any other in the neighborhood–a tall order to say the least. Day came back with a silky four and a half story, 35 room, 18,000 square foot collegiate revival monster that would make the mansions nearby seem like overwrought carriage houses.
Years later, The Yarnall mansion would become the site of a pioneering act of interior preservation.
Impressed by the artist Violet Oakley's murals recently completed at the state capitol building in Harrisburg, Charlton Yarnell hired her to create a mural series for his house's foyer. Oakley worked with architect Day to fit the murals into the pre-existing architecture of the great house. Inspired by Renaissance art, Oakley put together a plan that would inject murals into every dome, pendentive, lunette, and octogonal panel she could find in there. Called The Building of the House of Wisdom, the murals tell the story of the rise of education and knowledge.
The murals quickly became the talk of the town and the envy of every other wealthy family. They seemed to be the only part of the house anybody cared about and when the house went up for sale in 1927, the public was concerned that a new owner would destroy them. To prevent this, the Philadelphia Republican Women's Club purchased the house and made it the headquarters of the Republican Women of Pennsylvania and named it the "Hannah Penn House" in honor of William Penn's wife, who was said to "embody the spirit and ideals of Republican women." For the next 14 years, the Republican Women rented the Hannah Penn House's dining room and ballroom for special events. The space's biggest selling point was the Oakley mural series.
By 1940, the building was in a pretty sorry state–a total renovation and upgrade was in order. The Republican Women sold the mansion to another female-founded organization, the Philadelphia branch of the United Service Club. Kenneth MacKenzie Day, son of the original architect, was commissioned to design the remodel.
The United Service Club was like a YMCA for enlisted men. The Philadelphia branch was founded by the Philadelphia Army and Navy Camp Committee of the National Congress of Mothers in 1917. At this new location, enlisted men could use the dormitory, recreation center, and cafeteria services offered by the organization. In wartime, these clubs were often used as a farewell place between officers and their families before leaving for war. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s the Yarnall house was the local American Red Cross throughout the 1950s and 60s.
In 1973, when the house was being converted for the Institute of Paralegal Training, the murals became endangered once again. Edith Emerson, first director of the Woodmere Museum (and Violet Oakley's partner), took possession of the murals and put them on display in the Chestnut Hill museum, where they still reside today.
The Institute of Paralegal Training only stayed in the building until 1982, but used the building for its Institute of Employee Benefit Training for years thereafter. After spending the 1990s as law offices, the building became Urban Outfitters/Anthropologie/Free People headquarters before the advertising agency Star Group purchased the building in 2005 for $4 million. The old dining room is now the company's conference space.

Kermit's Green Apples with Peanut Butter Dip
Fun Food, Healthy Snacks, Kermit, Apples Slices, The Muppets, Frogs, Eating Healthy, Peanut Butter, Kids Food
cute Print 1 Comment Share Apples and peanut butter are a classic snack, and an unexpected treat when the apple looks like everyone's favorite frog. Kermit comes alive when you carve a green apple to look like the world famous frog and you add marshmallow eyes and a red apple slice for his mouth. Serve the apple with a tasty peanut butter dip. You'll need: For Kermit: 1 green apple 1 red apple 1 marshmallow Black edible marker Sharp paring knife For peanut butter dip: 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff 2 teaspoons lemon juice Instructions: 1. Slice a green apple in half, from the stem to the end. 2. Place half of the apple on your plate and reserve the other half. 3. Trim two diagonal slices from the tapered end of the apple, making one end of the apple narrower. 4. Use a sharp knife to carve a half moon-shaped smile into the center of the apple. 5. Trim a slice of red apple into a matching half moon shape. Cut away most of the white of the red apple slice so that the skin is easy to bend. 6. You will need to press the red apple slice into the opening in the green apple. Trim the skin until it fits snugly. 7. Cut a marshmallow into 4 quarters. You will use two of the half circles for Kermit's eyes. 8. Use the black edible marker to draw on pupils. 9. Press Kermit's eyes onto the apple. The sticky marshmallow acts like glue, holding the eyes in place. 10. Take your reserved green apple and trim a few triangle shapes. Place these around Kermit's neck, as his ruffle. 11. Mix the peanut butter and marshmallow fluff in a small bowl. 12. Add 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. The lemon juice will help loosen up the peanut butter and marshmallow, giving it a creamy consistency. It will also balance the sweetness of the marshmallow.

Is 'Senioritis' Catching?
"Senioritis" is described as decreased motivation for studies evidenced by students who are nearing graduation. In its most serious form, it can lead to failed courses and delayed graduation or deflated grades which can have on-going negative effects for those seeking to go on to graduate work.
Seniors are carrying more than their share of emotional concerns during their last semester. The initial step in easing the symptoms is to simply recognize that the causes are real. Accepting those realities, talking about them and facing them head on with your senior student is much more effective than having them try to hide from these realities or "partying" them away.
Is "Senioritis" catching? The answer is yes, as we are all susceptible to being influenced by the moods of those around us. Happy people make us happy, sad people make us feel sad, etc. Seniors need to stick together and support each other in the fight against senioritis.

Both the Muskego-Norway and the New Berlin school districts have won places on the College Board AP District Honor Roll, a distinction achieved by only 6 percent of school districts in Wisconsin, and only 539 school districts nationally.
The honor is given for both increasing the number of students taking advanced placement college-level courses while maintaining a high learning level enabling the students to score high enough on AP exams to be eligible for college credit.
This is the first year Muskego-Norway has been named to the honor roll. New Berlin has been on it before.
The goal is to have students able to score at least a three out of five on AP exams. More than 90 percent of colleges and universities across the country offer college credit, advanced placement or both for that score. High schools preparing their students at the college level through AP classes save students and families thousands of dollars in college tuition.
To earn the honor, districts must among other things, increase participation or access to AP classes by 4 to 6 percent, depending on their size and make sure that the percentage of minority students taking AP exams doesn't drop by 5 to 10 percent, again, depending on district size.

Republicans Come Together To Kick Off A Jobs-Focused Legislative Session
This week marked the beginning of the second half of the 108th General Assembly, with the House of Representatives gaveling into session on Tuesday at "high noon" in accordance with the Tennessee Constitution.
Having now officially convened, a number of issues await legislators in Nashville, with House Republicans vowing to make private sector job creation the top priority for the General Assembly.
Tennesseans can also expect Republicans to take up measures that will solidify the state's ranking as a business-friendly, right-to-work state. In addition, the House Majority will work together to pass a number of proposals to continue improving both the state's economic outlook and education.
With regard to the state budget, officials say revenues have come in below expectations, meaning there will have to be some trimming to how much the state can spend this year. Nevertheless, Republicans have committed themselves to once again crafting a fiscally responsible, balanced budget that does not raise taxes. Just as Tennesseans across the state must live within their means, House Republicans have promised to continue managing taxpayer dollars in a thoughtful, fiscally prudent manner.
Tennessee Named '2013 State Of The Year' For Economic Development
Earlier this week, Business Facilities magazine, a national economic development publication, officially named Tennessee as its '2013 State Of The Year' for economic development, based on the state's huge success over the last twelve months in recruiting new business and promoting economic development across Tennessee.
Cited in the magazine's report were the state's top five economic development projects of 2013, which created a total of 6,900 jobs, $3.2 billion in capital investment, and included seven expansions and three new recruitments.
This new award comes on the heels of other recent accolades for Tennessee, including being named #1 state in the nation for automotive manufacturing strength for an unprecedented four years in a row. Tennessee was also ranked in the top five states with the best business climate by Site Selection magazine and as the fourth best state in the U.S. for business in Chief Executive Magazine's Annual Best & Worst States for Business Survey.
The top economic development projects for number of jobs created and amount of capital invested named by Business Facilities include:
, aimed at helping families across the state more easily find and navigate information and resources related to state government.
The website, described as a "one-stop shop" for families, gathers important information from across different state agencies, making it more convenient for families to find exactly what they need. It also gives individuals a platform to search for various state-related content areas, especially programs related to children's health, education, and development.
Through www.kidcentraltn.com, parents can receive recommendations for relevant articles and services that might benefit their family. In addition, the website offers families the ability to download a mobile app to search for needed services as well as a directory of all state services available. For more information, visit www.kidcentraltn.com.
House Of Representatives Undergoes Annual Ethics Training
The House of Representatives participated in their annual ethics training this week, with the Executive Director of the Tennessee Ethics Commission, Drew Rawlins, leading the training session.

As Purim approaches, thousands of Israeli children and families grapple with poverty
With October becoming the most deadly month for U.S. troops in Iraq in nearly two years, Palestinian preachers in several major mosques in the West Bank and Gaza Strip are celebrating the anti-American violence as a gift from Allah bestowed upon Muslims during the holy month of Ramadan. Terror leaders told WorldNetDaily that they believe the insurgency in Iraq has exposed U.S. weakness and will soon force an American withdrawal, citing as proof the "many" people in the U.S. who are comparing the war in Iraq to Vietnam. Abu Ayman, a leader of the Islamic Jihad terror group in the northern West Bank city of Jenin, said, "We saw in Iraq [during] this month [of Ramadan] how Allah helped the mujahedeen fighters to mark a great victory, a victory that brought the Americans to speak for the first time seriously and sincerely that Iraq is becoming a new Vietnam and that they should fix a schedule for their withdrawal from Iraq." Similarly, in Hebron this past weekend a popular Palestinian Islamist political party, Hizb A-Tahrir, distributed a pamphlet celebrating the American deaths as a Ramadan gift and petitioning Allah to "keep cooling our hearts and souls with more and more American soldiers killed." In several Internet chat rooms associated with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah party, which is partially funded by the U.S., users this weekend spoke of an American withdrawal from Iraq as imminent. One user hailed the "good and divine news that comes from Iraq," referring to the high number of deaths. The user wrote it is "only a question of time" before the U.S. withdraws from the country. 'Major Attacks Against Israel On The Way' Terror groups allied with Hamas in the Gaza Strip are planning a series of large-scale attacks against Israeli positions near Gaza "within the coming days," including rocket attacks, suicide bombings and raids on Israeli military posts, according to several senior terror leaders in Gaza. "The Israelis have misunderstood the period of calm in last few weeks and months. This was the calm before the storm," said Abu Abir, spokesman of the Gaza-based Popular Resistance Committees. "The Palestinian resistance will carry out very soon a big offensive that will include shootings of rockets for a distance farther then until recently; it will include tunnel attacks and suicide attacks inside Israel," he said. Abir, one of several terror leaders to claim upcoming attacks from Gaza, urged Israel to respond with a Gaza assault. "We wish Israel will come in (to Gaza) in a bigger way because we will turn the entire area of the Israeli operation into a big cemetery filled with Zionist soldiers," he said. Palestinian and Israeli security officials said they are aware of the attack plans. Israel said it has beefed up security at Gaza border crossings. The Palestinian officials said the threatened large-scale attacks, which they claimed may be imminent, are meant to provoke an Israeli military response in Gaza that would unite the Palestinians and thwart any attempt by Abbas to dissolve the Hamas-led alestinian government. Israel To Step Up Operations In Gaza The Israel Defense Forces will in the coming days expand its military operations against terrorists in the Gaza Strip, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told the Knesset this week. Olmert did not publicly specify the new measures for operations in Gaza, which he approved after a meeting with the senior IDF leadership. Last week this column reported that the Israeli military, concerned about the massive amount of weaponry recently smuggled into the Gaza Strip and the regular firing of rockets at nearby Jewish communities, would present battle plans for approval by the government for a large-scale Gaza offensive. The Israeli assault, a version of which includes reoccupying parts of Gaza, is aimed at blocking Egypt-Gaza smuggling routes, confiscating weaponry already transferred into Gaza, halting the rocket-firing at Jewish communities and badly damaging Gaza's terrorist infrastructure. The IDF officials said the offensive is "crucial" for Israel's security and would be the largest military operation launched against Palestinian terrorist groups in Gaza since Israel evacuated the territory last year. But the officials last week said they worried the Gaza assault may be "watered down" or not approved at all by Olmert for political reasons. Indeed, IDF officials now say Olmert only approved stepped-up, isolated operations in Gaza and not the large-scale offensive they assert is needed. Hamas, Fatah Training For Civil War Security organizations and militant groups associated with Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah party are currently undergoing training for the possible breakout within weeks of large-scale clashes with Hamas. The possible infighting, which Palestinian leaders speaking to WND warned could result in a "Palestinian civil war," is feared if Abbas follows through with recent threats to dismantle the Hamas-led Palestinian government. Israeli officials are worried that any major Palestinian clashes could spill over into attacks against the Jewish state.

Last evening looking at images on my webmail account thnere was a white bar across the page aout two thirds down. As the images scrolled so they passed through the blank zone.
As this was on an ancient Toshiba Portage- I conluded -'old age'
Thismorning However not only the mail images bit other images abd textx- this time on a rather new and little used ACER.
So I assume there fore not the computers- but what is the cause?
Also when conducting a search many sites - especially those near the top of a page will 'Reset' whilst others further down- Wiki for example will load- What is going on here?

Have you tried booting into Safe Mode and is the problem the same?
Please first go into Safe Mode (Restart computer, press the F8 key when the boot menu pops up, select [Safe Mode], and boot up) and check if the issue still occurs. If the issue does not occur in Safe Mode, please try uninstalling the display card by the steps below:
Click the Start Button, type Device Manager in the Search bar and press "Enter". Click Continue if necessary.
Double click to expand the Display adapters.
Right click on (your Display Adapter) and click Uninstall.
Restart the computer.
Please check if the issue occurs. If the issue does not occur after uninstalling the display card, please run Windows Update to install the driver.

Thank you northumbria61 But I dont think you havw fully comprehended what I was writing. The event was happening on two computers at the same time one old and one fairly new, so it had to be external and to exemplify this- it is not happening now as I write this. Likewise the frequent 'page resets' it is a am sure another external thing. But what?

Prosreliable, fun, stylish. ConsNo boost, but maybe thats a positive too?
Slicktop — I miss this car to death! My first of many Z32's. This beauty was dubbed "the slicktop", as it was the hardtop model 300zx.

ProsGood all-rounder, comfortable and surprisingly nimble ConsThat V6 Bottom end.....weak if not meticulously maintained
Sleek Sleeper! — Had one of these for about 4 years, fell in love with it instantly and proceeded to spend many 10000s tuning it. Was a totally standard car when i got it that went very well. Handling was good for a big heavy car (~1600kg kerb weight) althought braking was sometimes and event. After Id emptied my wallet a few times, the end result ws a fairly standard looking motor with almost 600hp...good times! |
