George Habash (Arabic: جورج حبش) also known by his laqab "al-Hakim" (Arabic:الحكيم — the wise one or the doctor) (2 August 1926 – 26 January 2008) was a Marxist and Palestinian Christian who founded the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Habash served as Secretary-General of the Palestine Front until 2000, when ill health forced him to resign.
Early life[edit]
Habash was born in Lydda (today's Lod) to an Eastern Orthodox Palestinian family in 1926.[1][2] As a child, he sang in the church choir.[3] Habash, a medical student at the American University of Beirut, was visiting his family during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. In July 1948, the Israeli Defence Force captured Lydda from Jordanian and Arab Liberation Army forces, expelling all of the town's Arab residents and killing Habash's sister. Habash and his remaining family became refugees and were not allowed to return home.
Political thinkers who were influences on Habash at this period included Constantin Zureiq, whose lectures at AUB on 'Arab nationalism and the Zionist danger' in the late 1940s and early 1950s Habash had attended, and Sati' al-Husri an Arab Muslim intellectual who emphasized national cohesiveness, territorial patriotism, and loyalty to the state, and gave priority to Arab unity over Islamic unity. [4]
In 1951, after graduating first in his class from medical school, Habash worked in refugee camps in Jordan, and ran a clinic with Wadie Haddad in Amman. He firmly believed that the state of Israel should be ended by all possible means, including political violence.[5] In an effort to recruit the Arab world to this cause, Habash founded the Arab Nationalist Movement (ANM) in 1951 and aligned the organization with Gamal Abdel Nasser's Arab nationalist ideology.
He was implicated in the 1957 coup attempt in Jordan, which had originated among Palestinian members of the National Guard. Habash was convicted in absentia, after having gone underground when King Hussein proclaimed martial law and banned all political parties. In 1958 he fled to Syria (then part of the United Arab Republic), but was forced to return[why?] to Beirut in 1961 by the tumultuous break-up of the UAR.
Habash was a leading member of the Palestine Liberation Organization until 1967 when he was sidelined by Fatah leader Yasser Arafat. In response, Habash founded the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine[edit]
In 1964 he began reorganizing the ANM, regrouping the Palestinian members of the organization into a "regional command." After the Six-Day War in 1967, disillusion with Nasser became widespread. This prompted the foundation, led by Habash, of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) as a front of several Palestinian factions, like the "heroes of return" and "Palestinian Liberation Front", along with the ANM on 11 December, when he also became its first Secretary-General. Habash was briefly imprisoned in Syria in 1968, but escaped. In the same year, he also came into conflict with long-time ally Wadie Haddad, but both remained in the PFLP.
At a 1969 congress the PFLP re-designated itself a Marxist-Leninist movement, and has remained a Communist organization ever since. Its pan-Arab leanings have been diminished since the ANM days, but popular support for a united Arab front has remained, especially in regard to Israeli and western political pressures. It holds a firm position regarding Israel, demanding its complete eradication as a racist state through military struggle and promotes a one-state solution (one secular, democratic, non-denominational state).
The 1969 congress also saw an ultra-leftist faction under Nayef Hawatmeh and Yasser Abd Rabbo split off as the Popular Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PDFLP), later to become the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP). During Habash's time as Secretary-General, the PFLP became known as one of the most radical and militant Palestinian factions, and gained world notoriety after a string of aircraft hijackings and attacks against Israel affiliated companies as well as Israeli ambassadors in Europe mostly planned by Haddad. The PFLP's pioneering of modern international terror operations brought the group, and the Palestinian issue, onto newspaper front pages worldwide, but it also provoked intense criticism from other parts of the Palestine Liberation Organization. In 1970, Habash was evicted from Jordan due to the key role of the Popular Front in the Black September clashes. In 1974, the Palestinian National Council adopted a resolution recognizing a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict[citation needed] and Habash, who opposed this, formed the Rejectionist Front from several other opposition parties.
Habash aligned the PFLP with the PLO and the Lebanese National Movement, but stayed neutral during the Lebanese Civil War in the late 1970s. After a stroke in 1980, when he was living in Damascus, his health declined and other PFLP members rose to the top.
After the Oslo Agreements, Habash formed another opposition alliance consisting of Rejectionist Front members and Islamist organizations such as Hamas and the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine, that became prominent during the First Intifada. In 2000, he resigned from his leadership post of the PFLP due to poor health and was succeeded by Abu Ali Mustafa. He continued to be an activist for the group until 2008, when he died of a heart attack in Amman.
Black September[edit]
The PFLP ignored tensions with the mainstream leadership of Yasser Arafat's Fatah faction, and instead focused on bringing about revolutionary change in Jordan. Habash expressed the opinion that what proceeded was not "only military but also psychological warfare" and one had to "hold the Israelis under permanent pressure".[6]
In 1970, Habash masterminded the hijackings of four Western airliners over the United States, Europe, the Far East and the Persian Gulf. The aircraft were blown up, after the passengers and crews were forced to disembark.
The Dawson's Field hijackings of 1970 were instrumental in provoking the Black September crackdown, which came close to destroying the PLO. The hijackings led King Hussein of Jordan to carry out a major offensive against militant strongholds in his kingdom resulting in the deaths of thousands of Palestinians.[7] In autumn 1970, Habash visited Beijing. After Black September, the PLO fedayeen relocated to Lebanon.
In 1972, Habash experienced failing health, and gradually began to lose influence within the organization. The Palestinian National Council's (PNC) adoption of a resolution viewed by the PFLP as a two-state solution in 1974, prompted Habash to lead his organization out of active participation in the PLO and to join the Iraqi-backed Rejectionist Front. Only in 1977 would the PFLP opt to rejoin, as the Palestinian factions rallied their forces in opposition to Anwar Sadat's overtures towards Israel, pro-U.S. policies and fragmentation of the Arab world. During the Lebanese Civil War that broke out in 1975, PFLP forces were decimated in battle against Syria Later, the PFLP would draw close to Syria, as Syria's government shifted, but PFLP involvement in the Lebanese war remained strong until the U.S.-negotiated evacuation of PLO units from Beirut in 1982, and continued on a smaller scale after that.
Oslo agreement[edit]
After the signing of the Oslo Peace Accords in 1993, Habash and the PFLP again broke completely with Arafat, accusing him of selling out the Palestinian revolution. The group set up an anti-Arafat and anti-Oslo alliance in Damascus, for the first time joined by such non-PLO Islamist groups such as Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, which had grown to prominence during the First Intifada. After finding the position sterile, with Palestinian political dynamics playing out on the West Bank and Gaza areas of the Palestinian National Authority (PNA), Habash carefully sought to repair ties to Arafat, and gain a hold in post-Oslo politics without compromising PFLP principles. However, there is no indication that he ever accepted the two-state solution. This balancing act could not save the PFLP from being eclipsed by the militant Islamist factions on the one hand, and the resource-rich Fatah with its PNA patronage network on the other. The significance of the PFLP in Palestinian politics has diminished considerably since the mid-90s. The PFLP participated in the Palestinian legislative elections of 2006 as Abu Ali Mustafa won 4.2% of the popular vote.
In the late 1990s, Habash's medical condition worsened. In 2000 he resigned from the post as Secretary-General, citing health reasons. He was succeeded as head of the PFLP by Abu Ali Mustafa who was assassinated by Israel during the Second Intifada. Habash went on to set up a PFLP-affiliated research center, but he remained active in the PFLP's internal politics. Until his death he was still popular among many Palestinians, who appreciate his revolutionary ideology, his determination and principles, the rejection of the Oslo Agreements and his intellectual style.
Habash died on 26 January 2008, at the age of 82 of a heart attack in the Jordan Hospital, Amman where Habash was a cancer patient.[8] The President of the Palestinian National Authority, Mahmoud Abbas called for three days of national mourning.[5] Habash was buried in a suburban cemetery of Amman with processions by the Eastern Orthodox Church.[9] Abbas said Habash was a "historic leader" and called for Palestinian flags to be flown half-mast. Abdel Raheem Mallouh, PFLP deputy Secretary-General, called Habash a "distinguished leader... who struggled for more than 60 years without a stop for the rights and the interests of his people".[5] Hamas leader and dismissed Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh sent his condolences, saying Habash "spent his life defending Palestine".[9]

Vayne, Trynd, Graves, Cait, Xin ( very underrated champ imo)
For melee carries, hands down it's Tryndamere. For ranged, it's a tie between Vayne and Caitlin, Vayne for her massive damage output and Cait for her Early Game lane dominance.
Depends on the lane and role? Check out Elementz tier list give you a pretty good idea. Bot lane: Vayne, Graves, Trist, Cait, Kog.... etc? Top lane: Tryn, Riven, GP, Yorick, Irelia..... etc? Some of the jungle can carry too like Skarner, but i dunno if he is AD. Technically bot lane ranged AD is the one that is most likely to carry late game. I think Vayne is generally recognized as the super-carry. She can destroy a whole team with her true dmg given someone is tanking for her (and she needs cleanse).
Vayne and Cait. I personally love cait though.
if you ask me its vayne and ezreal for the ranges and cait gets raped up by ezreal for the meele i reckon yi and tryn and possibly gp close behind
wtf is ppl going on about cait? she sucks and shes not compared to carries like ez and vayne
tier list tier 1, vayne graves, tristana tier 2 ashe, cait, kog corki thier 3 (still amazing with the right player) urgot,miss fortune, ezreal, twitch, teemo and any others i forgot. .
xXCFXx Avenger
rofl....no, the most widley played ranged AD in high elo now is Corki, but, he is one of the hardest, u get good with him u carry every game, but he is soo much harder than the others. So Corki is the best, but takes a lot of skill that few ppl have so u don't see that many.

I noted that Volquez and Masset were traded for in my list. But the bottom line is they're part of the organization.
I meant to add on the 25-man roster or ready to make an appearance soon (hence when I said about to start filtering in over the next 12-18 months).
You're using Bailey and Mesoraco as examples that the system has not turned the corner. No mater how good a system is, you're always going to have guys who don't develop. That's not a surprise.
But when's the last time you could honestly say the Reds had a system on the brink of being used for 25-man depth and in many cases, options for future starters? I've been following the Reds pretty closely since the 1990's, and I don't remember this much talent up and down through the organization. Not saying all these players will turn into stars and that some won't flame out, but the system is on the verge of helping the big league club in a big way.
It's for that reason I don't think a 2010 plan will require too much heavy lifting. Some maintenance, a few signings and unloading a bad contract or two and I think the Reds are in a position to make a good run.

Company, which sells tech online via TigerDirect, CompUSA, and Circuit City sites, announces the resignation of Gilbert Fiorentino, CEO of its technology products group.
The computer vendor is bringing CompUSA back to life, and now it looks like it might be doing the same for Circuit City. But why stop there, Systemax?
Despite its tough name, the Assault is not built to military specifications. In fact, many of its features--a magnesium alloy case, antishock design, and a spill-resistant keyboard and touch pad--can be found on corporate models from Dell and Lenovo.
After closing its stores, electronics retailer gets a Web relaunch that closely resembles the sites of CompUSA and TigerDirect, also run by Systemax.
The prolonged death spiral of its retail stores have been well-documented, but the Circuit City story seems to have added yet another chapter.
The retailer went bankrupt in late 2007, but the new owner is trying to revive the brand.
The electronics retailer selects a new chief executive, president, and chairman while it tries to turn itself around.
The Systemax Pursuit 4155 pairs a competitive feature set with decent performance for the budget-minded home user.

I bottled my first batch (from extract, Muntons Anniversary Ale) a little over a month ago, after 2.5 weeks in the carboy, and from what I've read, it should be getting to the point of tasting good about now... but the beer is still very bitter, with a harsh aftertaste, some bottles bordering even on undrinkable (I've been drinking about one a week, and wound up pouring out the one I opened yesterday). Is it just a matter of just waiting longer, or should I start to worry about something being wrong with the batch? The biggest error I think I made in the brewing was leaving the glass carboy exposed to sunlight, could that be the culprit? Like I said, this is my first attempt, so I'd like to figure out how to get a better result next time.
the sunlight would give it a skunky flavor so if yoru beer is overly bitter it could be many thinks my suggestion is to sit it some where and don't touch it for another month or so the flavors might mellow out some by then
Did you taste the beer at bottling? I always taste the sample I pull for checking specific gravity, could give an idea of where a potential problem originated. Can you be specific about what you are tasting(acetone, banana, skunk, sweaty feet, etc..) If your beers each taste different, I am wondering if you may have a sanitation issue!
I don't drink beer all the time but I can drink (a) beer anytime" - Me
I'm not familiar with this extract kit, but after 1 month of bottle conditioning and 2.5 weeks in primary this beer should be ready to go, so I don't think waiting longer is going to help. What was your OG and FG readings? Exposing the fermenting carboy to sunlight can't be good...
my first brew experience sounds similar. the taste of mine was astringent. reading the boards, i found that i boiled the specialty grain "tea bag" at too high of a temperature and sparged the grain bag (another no no) which both released tannins and caused a very dry bitter (and horrible taste). it was undrinkable for about 1 month after bottling. i thought about throwing it out on multiple occasions, but read several posts suggesting you keep it. the beer started to get slightly better for the next 2 weeks (still bad)....and then changed very quickly at 1.5 months or so. ultimately the beer became one of the best and most unique beers i've brewed to date. i saved one bottle for posterity. i'd start another batch, and wait it out with your first brew. unless it was an infection, i think you will be surprised in May!
but, every beer is different! good luck!
skunky like bad heineken? I keep a black sweatshirt over my glass ferm. are you a "hop-head" if not... let's see your recipe... was the anniversary ale kit-pre-hopped? did you add more hops? pre-hopped kits usually only need flavor hops at 20 min and aroma hops late boil 0-10 min. I stopped using hopped extracts early on because I couldn't get the control of bitterness I liked, and I used to be a crazy hop-head!
I made a batch that was way way astringent and undrinkable. It's pretty god not but it took over a year for it to calm down. Typically a normal beer (brown, stout, hefe, amber . . ect) are drinkable after 3 weeks but get better OR worse from there.

PHOENIX -- Our streak of pleasantly warm afternoons is continuing into the weekend across the Valley.
A dip in the jet stream is keeping a northwesterly flow of dry and mild air into Arizona.
Friday morning, look for temperatures to start out in the mid 50s Valley-wide under clear skies. Phoenix should bottom out at 55. The high country will see lows in the 20s and 30s, with Flagstaff dipping to 30.
The Valley will see abundant sunshine during the afternoon and top out in the mid 80s. Phoenix should reach a high of 85. Seasonal average for this time of year is 88. The high country will reach the 50s and 60s, with Flagstaff topping out at 58.
Expect very little change into the weekend, with highs Saturday and Sunday in Phoenix reaching 86 both days.
High pressure begins to build in from the west to kick off the new work week, but don't expect to notice a difference in the weather. 80-degree highs and 50-degree lows under clear skies will continue their reign.

The Body Shop White Musk EDT
Average Rating 3.8/5 |
Review by reikigoddess
Been looking for a musk scent. I've tried Narcisso, Les Nereides, Musc Ravageur (that's a whole different animal) and some others and then this. This is my fav. I'm shocked at how much I really like this! As far as staying power...no problem for me...it lasts all day and into the night. The price is ridiculously low but the packaging sucks. I was never a big TBS shopper but I do recall better pkg. in the past. All the products in the line look really cheap. I'm planning on buying the EDT (I like it a lot better than the EDP) and putting it in a spray atomizer. UPDATE: check out profumo.it re: toxic perfumes. Greenpeace apparently did a big scientific study & this was on their list of 36 most toxic perfumes. There's a chance it's been reformulated since then though (2004 study).

Tom Brady vs. Mark Sanchez: By the numbers
Tom Brady, the NFL's No. 1 QB, and the New England Patriots take on the NY Jets, the No. 1 defense, with quarterback Mark Sanchez. Each team is battling to be the best in the AFC East. Who has the edge?
Rich Kane/Icon SMI 781/Newscom
As the New England Patriots face off against the New York Jets Monday night, both teams lead the AFC East with nine wins and two losses.
Yet if you look at the Patriots' quarterback, statistically Tom Brady stands head and shoulders above Jets QB Mark Sanchez.
Brady currently has the highest passing rating (105.8 ) in the NFL. He hasn't thrown an interception since October. Sanchez (81.9 passing rating) shows up somewhere around No. 20 in NFL. Brady exceeds Sanchez on almost every other measure.
But the passing rating is a fairly narrow window, and arguably isn't the best way to judge a quarterback's success in the NFL.
If you look at total passing yardage, Brady and Sanchez are not so far apart. Brady's at No. 12 among NFL field generals, and Sanchez at No. 18.
May be the Patriots do a better job of protecting their passer? Yes, but not by much. Sanchez has been sacked 19 times, and Brady 15 times.
There's no question that in professional football today, it's all about The Arm. But, in Monday night's game, is Brady likely to be the winning difference for the Pats or will other factors be more important? And if you believe that the Patriots can beat the Jets, are they good enough to win the Super Bowl?

This is interesting. Phoenix lengthened its Spring race by 63 miles to 375 laps and miles. This is probably to get the race more into prime time. California, or Auto Club Speedway, will shorten the fall race there to 400 miles. This is probably to make it more like Michigan, which is a similar track where the races are also 400 miles. The race in February will remain 500 miles, although that could also change soon. This could be the beginning of NASCAR getting back to what everyone really likes. It will be fascinating to follow how these changes work.

American Financial Group, Inc. Announces Preliminary Estimate Of Long Term Care Charge Driven By Continued Low Interest Rate Environment
American Financial Group, Inc. (NYSE/NASDAQ: AFG) today released preliminary results of its periodic review of its closed block of long-term care insurance, including the impact of the previously announced external actuarial study. Preliminary results indicate the Company will be required to record an after-tax charge of $80 to $100 million ($0.88 to $1.09 per diluted common share) to write off deferred acquisition costs and strengthen reserves on this block of business. This charge is primarily due to lower projected future investment rates resulting from the continued low interest rate environment and assumes no material change in the interest rate environment between now and when full year 2012 results are announced. This charge will be excluded from core net operating earnings. As a result, AFG reaffirmed its previously announced 2012 core net operating earnings guidance of $3.10 to $3.30 per share.
The charge also reflects changes in claims, expense and persistency assumptions, including the impact of data from the external study, which supplemented the Company's internal analysis of claim experience relative to broader industry trends. After the charge, the Company expects that its long-term care subsidiaries will continue to remain adequately capitalized and will not require a capital contribution from AFG.
Full year core net operating earnings will include the results of the review ("unlocking") of major actuarial assumptions, including investment rates, on the Company's annuity business. Preliminary results indicate this review will result in an after-tax charge of less than $15 million ($0.16 per diluted common share), which is reflected in the earnings guidance above.
Final results of both the long-term care periodic review and the annuity DAC unlocking will be included in the announcement of full year 2012 results to be issued in January 2013.
About American Financial Group, Inc. American Financial Group is an insurance holding company, based in Cincinnati, Ohio with assets in excess of $35 billion. Through the operations of Great American Insurance Group, AFG is engaged primarily in property and casualty insurance, focusing on specialized commercial products for businesses, and in the sale of fixed and fixed-indexed annuities in the education, bank and individual markets. Great American Insurance Group's roots go back to 1872 with the founding of its flagship company, Great American Insurance Company.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Bourne's Journal: The Christmas Dragon Awakes
December 18, 2013. Posted by Michael Bourne.
Add new comment | Filed under: michael bourneGlenn Dicker, my son-in-law, is nuts about Christmas, and his Christmas "Dickerations" on the family's house in Chapel Hill are the most spectacular for miles around. Here's me, with my daughter Elizabeth, with last year's centerpiece, a Christmas Kong.
I knew that Elizabeth was marrying a cool guy when I first saw his record collection, including about a foot-wide of Slim Gaillard CD's. I was amazed all the more that there were that many Slim Gaillard CD's.
Glenn is enjoying great success as one of the owners of a record distributor, RedEye -- they distribute the labels of Branford Marsalis and Dave Holland -- and a record label, YepRoc -- named for one of Slim's classic songs, "YepRoc Heresy." Glenn's label puts out an extraordinary variety of music, from the Mexican-wrestler-mask-wearing instrumental rockers Los Straightjackets to several British pop stars: Robyn Hitchcock, Paul W eller, and especially Nick Lowe. WBGO is playing one of YepRoc's newest blues albums, Tony Joe White's "Hoodoo."
"Black Friday" is when most people go nuts shopping. On the day after Thanksgiving, Glenn lights up his Christmas extravaganza. There's always something new and flabbergasting. This year, there's a secret weapon: a lawn-wide Christmas DRAGON!

Here's a phenomenal number: 143. That's how many musicians or groups got votes. He's a top-ten of WBGO blues listener favorites.
Muddy Waters and BB King were even at the beginning of Wednesday's blues hour, and surges of votes for both happened during the hour. Muddy was up, then BB was up, then Muddy, then BB, then Buddy Guy vaulted up to pass BB, and Muddy jumped even higher. Fifth year at #1 for Muddy Waters.

Sheba (series)
- Posted by Johanna on March 12, 2006 at 8:19 am
- Category: Graphic Novel Reviews
- CREDITS: by Walter S. Crane IV
- PUBLISHER: Sick Mind Press; $17.95 US
A distinctive visual style anchors this combination of mythology, history, and religion. At the time of The Sands of Seth, Egypt has been taken over by followers of Islam, so the outdated gods are hanging out in bars in limbo bemoaning their fate. Sheba, Cleopatra's mummified cat, is woken by some tomb-robbers and heads off to confront Anubis, the jackal-headed god of the underworld, in order to attain her promised afterlife. He explains that her heart has to be weighed against the feather of truth, which promptly blows away. As Sheba sets off to find it, Seth, god of chaos and sandstorms, wakes the Sphinx in an attempt to recapture Egypt.
On her journey, Sheba meets Buraq, an Islamic goddess/peacock/mule hybrid who carried Mohammed to visit Allah, and starts showing her around. Along the way, we learn more about the history of Isis, Osiris' two deaths, and the general arrangement of the Egyptian pantheon. Then Astarte (Phoenecian fertility goddess and Seth's ex-wife), Hathor (who's moved to India; where better for a cow-headed goddess?), Shiva, Ganesh, and Krishna are added to the picture. Meanwhile, Seth has succeeded in creating an "interfaith incident" when he attacks the followers of Islam.
In the second book, The Falcon and the Flame, we learn more about all the characters' backgrounds, including flashbacks to Sheba's life as Cleopatra's favorite pet during the fall of Egypt to the Romans. There's lots of misadventures, various gods and goddesses rehash old grudges, and we even visit the Mayans. This isn't a quick read; scenes cut back and forth rapidly, and there are a lot of characters to keep track of. Still, if the reader pays attention, it's worthwhile.
Echoes of the Gods is set 1200 years after the events of the previous books, as Napoleon brings his troops into Egypt. His plans for conquest are upset by his stomach ailments, for which his physician prescribes ground mummy powder, while the soldiers are using Egyptian artifacts for target practice. Sheba is tasked with protecting the location of the mummies of the kings, all hidden in a secret location. Her only helper is the Ushabti of Moving-Really-Large-Limestone-Blocks. (Ushabti were little statues of servants, buried with mummies to take care of their needs in the afterlife.)
We then flash back to meet Sheba as a kitten, when she first encounters Cleopatra. Coincidentally, this happens as Cleo is first meeting Caesar. The overwhelming splendor of history is minimized by the way the author dialogues the characters with slang and casual speech. Crane sets the stage with a series of double-page spreads that both establish the Egyptian setting and contrast the flower of its civilization with the later conquest by Napoleon. The art is as moody and evocative as ever, with lots of crosshatching and shading.
The wide variety of non-human characters throughout the series demonstrates Crane's skill with unique body language. Sheba is a particularly interesting case; as a kitty mummy, the character is a head on a stubby bandage-wrapped body. Her only appendage is her tail, yet she definitely expresses her personality. It's cute to watch her try and get anywhere: hop, hop, hop. Flashbacks before her death fill in the gaps; she acts like a real cat, stalking and pouncing.
Crane's art is densely detailed. His penwork uses a lot of blacks and crosshatching for depth, and the resulting pages are heavy with detail. There are a number of nitpicky things that somewhat bothered my reading experience. The typos in the text, including my pet peeve, "it's" for "its", should have been corrected. A few places had confusing panel and/or balloon flow. Overall, though, I applaud Crane's experimentation and artistic reach.
It's a unique way to experience the history of belief, and the stories put a lot of things in perspective. No matter the culture or religion, there are certain aspects of human nature (and the nature of belief figures created by humans) that remain the same. Whether it's the desire to be remembered or to exercise your skills to the best of your ability, a "live and let live" philosophy, like that expressed by these gods, seems wisest. Apparently, being immortal gives you a certain acceptance of spins of the great wheel of life.
Certain of the characters are evil by nature, but for most of the cast, the terms "evil" and "good" are too simplistic. For instance, Buraq is often intolerant of the gods she meets, calling all of them demons and expressing her belief that Allah is the one true god. At the same time, she is clearly doing her best to make things right and protect others, and loyalty to her friends is one of her strongest virtues. Although she has moved from feeling uncomfortable about the pantheists to questioning her beliefs, she holds true to her faith.
We're also reminded of the catastrophe of knowledge lost. As one culture replaces another through war and invasion, all kinds of information disappears, whether it's the purpose of the pyramids or minor inventions, simply because such items aren't considered important until long after they're gone.
The Pantheon Special, published by Sirius' Dog Star Press, combines character profiles with reprints of the original Sheba comic strips. (It ran weekly in a college paper from 1992-1994.) Having a reference for the various gods and their relationships is helpful, but the strips range from creating chuckles to generating groans, and the art obviously had a way to go. This one-off issue is currently out of print.

September 23, 2014 at 1:24 AMActually, I've heard that the artist has been very busy and no longer goes by that name any more.. and as such has been creative in other areas, and is currently working on a graphic novel about something else, which when it comes out, you'll be like "whatever happened to the artist who did Sheba?"
The URL of Sheba website at shebacomic.com had been lost a few years ago to cypersquatters, and the new URL was http://www.sheba.tv, which though the link is dead, is owned by the intellectual property owner of the comic book.

They are pretty to look at and the size of all the bowls is perfect. However, they chipped within the first month and two of the bowls are unusable after less than a year. Disappointed
A little pricey but I love them! Great pattern and colors.
This is a beautiful set which is very functional not only for pasta but for other meals with a sauce that might overflow regular plates. My only minor complaint is that the edging is dark brown and if you get the tiniest chip in them, it is white underneath. For this reason, I would recommend either hand washing or being extra careful about how you place them in the dishwasher. I still love the set and would recommend it.
Love the pasta sets made by ****. I have given thm as gifts to several friends and everyone has been happy. I have 2 sets of my own in different patterns. This is the pattern I like the best.
The colors are crisp and rich. The product craftsmanship is beautiful. This is my first pasta set, and I really love it. Can hardly wait to use. Washed up great in the dishwasher.

Harris: Q&A with Hines Ward
Harris: Q&A with Hines Ward
By John Harris TRIBUNE-REVIEW Sunday, November 5, 2006 Hines Ward is the Steelers' career receptions leader with 608. He's also second all-time in receiving yards with 7,489 and touchdown catches with 57. Ward has led the Steelers in receiving seven consecutive years (he tied Troy Edwards with 61 catches in 1999) and currently leads the team in receptions (34), yards (459) and touchdown catches (five). Last year's Super Bowl MVP, Ward believes the Steelers can rebound from their surprising 2-5 start in 2006 beginning with today's 4:15 p.m. game against the Denver Broncos at Heinz Field. Q: What do the Steelers need to do to turn things around? A: We can't fumble the ball; we can't turn the ball over. We have to all go out and play better. Until it gets rectified, we're going to continue to lose ballgames. We don't try to turn the ball over. Things happen. Everybody can improve. Nobody's playing perfect right now. We've all got to get on the same page and find a way to rectify this. Q: The Steelers need to get hot if they want to make the playoffs. Is the team capable of going on a long winning streak considering the way the season has gone so far? A: I don't look at the big picture. I just want to win. The thing is to beat the Denver Broncos, and that's all that matters. Throw out whoever's in the lead. We've just got to beat the Denver Broncos. That's our main focus. Q: What's been the biggest difference this season in the Steelers losing close games after winning the majority of them last season? A: We didn't become a bad team overnight. A lot of teams are right there in it, but there comes a play, and it seems like this year we're not coming up with those plays. Q: You and Denver cornerback Champ Bailey go all the way back to your playing days together at the University of Georgia. How does he rank among the top cornerbacks in the league? A: Champ's a great cornerback, but we can't really worry about Champ. We have to worry about what we can do. He has ball skills. You throw it over there, he's like a receiver playing cornerback. They say the difference between cornerbacks and receivers is cornerbacks can't catch. He can catch. He's a great student of the game. I've played against him since college. We've had our battles. He's still one of the better corners in the league. I brought him into Georgia. I'm kind of like a big brother to him. He wanted to play both ways, so he's always trying to learn to play wide receiver. He kind of knows what we're thinking at times. It makes it even harder. http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pitt.../s_477971.html

We are Tiny Specks
As we continue to pick our way down the northeast face of Mount Rainier, weaving between yawning crevasses and building-sized blocks of ice, I can't help but think to myself, "So, THIS is what a storm feels like." I have been in bad weather before. I've been cold, hungry, and wet more times than I can begin to count. Years of winter mountaineering and ice climbing have jaded my opinion of what bad weather is and have created in me a strange fondness for misery.
But being at 13,500 feet and exposed on the massive Emmons Glacier seems to bring about this epiphany. Our position, along with the thin air and raging wind, makes this particular storm, despite being in early June, feel of a more violent disposition than others I've encountered. It feels bigger – like everything else on this hill, the storms feel massive, too. It feels like we're toys caught in the grasp of a cold, glaciated machine. We are tiny specks, completely insignificant in the grand scheme of the mountain.
Despite our seemingly miserable position, something odd was afoot in our collective psyche. During a brief lull in the wind, I catch a glance of my partner. He's a few feet below me, picking his way between two small crevasses while I traverse above him. He looks up. I smile and hold up my ice-laden ax. He answers with a hearty laugh. "This is perfect," I think. It's exactly what we came up here for. As many alpinists will agree, this is why we get up in the morning. We are having a full-on adventure – getting our collective butts kicked by a big, powerful mountain.
And the best part is we didn't have to fly halfway around the world or hire porters to get here. This mountain is an American treasure. Surrounded by a national park, it's open for adventure every day of the year.
As we continue our descent, the harsh conditions begin to abate. The wind stops gusting so fiercely, and visibility improves to the point where I can see my partner. We emerge into clearer weather at around 10,000 feet. From here it's a relaxed walk down to Camp Schurman and the comfort of our high camp.
Another memorable trip is in the books.
Author Scott Hotaling has worked as a volunteer climbing ranger on Mount Rainier and has been to the summit 17 times. Recreation aside, Subaru-owner Hotaling is a graduate student (his research is focused on high-elevation ecosystems) and landscape photographer.
Climbing Route Information
With 41 primary climbing routes covering a wide range of difficulty and commitment, Mount Rainier can offer challenge and excitement to even the most seasoned mountaineer. For detailed information, along with great aerial imagery and mountain commentary, a would-be Rainier climber should pick up a copy of Mount Rainier: A Climbing Guide, by Mike Gauthier.
Gauthier is credited with founding the climbing ranger program at Mount Rainier and has spent much of his career climbing, rescuing, and living in the park in all seasons.
In addition to information about the primary climbing routes up Mount Rainier, the guide also contains route details pertaining to Little Tahoma, a spur of the Rainier massif to the east, which is also Washington's third highest peak.

A book by Nicholas Sparks
My name is Sam Sutlive and I have read a lot of books. I read anything and everything that catches my eye/looks interesting. I recently read H.M.S. Unseen by Patrick Robinson. I think people who are interested in mysteries, submarines, and a dynamic character would enjoy this book. This book is mostly set in the Middle East. H.M.S. Unseen starts out with a prologue, which grabs your attention by starting in the middle of the book. (Of course it then starts with chapter one). This book has to do with a smart man who is introduced as Eliat One who has the ability and the resources to change his cultural status level. He is able to represent himself as a man who is a well to do businessperson but who has kept his deep cultural roots. He also can become a worn out old beggar. He knows a lot about the Middle East especially Iraq and Iran. He knows about these country's military's work. His knowledge in the history and the military of Iran and Iraq allow him to pose as a patriot of either country. He is a very slippery character that even makes deals with some (or one) of his enemies. The basic plot without giving out a spoiler is that Eliat One chooses to leave his home country, joins another country, and accomplishes four main goals. Three of the four main goals wreck havoc on two developed countries. An important theme is submarines and submarine/military technology. Who has what resources and capabilities? What are the possibilities based on what is available? Who would suspect what is going on? What can Eliats One's current leaders get away with? Who knows about Eliat One in the two developed countries that are attacked, if anyone?
As a reader gets more involved with H.M.S. Unseen they will see the personality and learn the beliefs of Eliat One. He is very unemotional but has two things that he has a deep attachment too. As the book progresses the reader is able to delve deeper into the consciousness of Eliat One.
If you have read Tom Clancy's book The Hunt for Red Octoberor seen the movie version and liked it you will enjoy H.M.S. Unseen. H.M.S. Unseen has the same feeling or sense of adventure as Red October. The character types and their development are different in these two books. The idea of an enemy and what is the so-called enemy going to do/ how much is he a threat to us? Is asked in both of these books. If you read H.M.S. Unseen I hope you enjoy it. I want to warn you that if you are strict about reading books in order you should start with Nimitz Class and then read Kilo Class and thenH.M.S. Unseen. I did not know they were a series when I read H.M.S. Unseen but I still enjoyed it and you will not be lost if you start with the last book in the series.

4.5 breaking dawn donna37kibble | 01/03/2011 | See all donna37kibble's reviews (1) watched all the movies and breaking dawn has to be the best read it once to myself ,then read it to my children as they like the films it was amazing . it is a must if yr a twilight fan hope the film is just as gd cant wait .......
4.5 Poor Ending and a little morbid EggyBreadHead | 07/02/2011 | See all EggyBreadHead's reviews (2) General idea of the baby killing her from the inside, and Jacob falling in love with a baby was just a bit creepy.I feel like Meyer has created all those characters, but I don't care about any of them. She introduces all these new people, but they are undeveloped, and the ending is such an anti-climax. I have read all of the Twilight books, and honestly don't think they are worth the hype.She just isn't a good author in my eyes, and her writing does nothing to inspire me to care about her characters. She could kill some of them off and I wouldn't care - they lack personality.
4.5 Easily the best in the saga! redvamp09 | 21/01/2011 | See all redvamp09's reviews (36) I really enjoyed this book and have to admit it was my favourite. I know that people are critical of the ending, but I personally thought it was the most logical and happiest way to end, and Bella deserves to be happy after all she's been through. The characters are so relatable in various ways! Really great book and an absolute essential to fans!
4.5 Breaking dawn kincher | 04/12/2010 | See all kincher's reviews (3) After watching Twighlight i was hooked and couldn't wait for the next film so i bought the 4 books as after reading a review that said the books were better than the film i thought ok , i will start at the beginning and read all 4 , i started with Twighlight (amazing) then straight onto New Moon (amazing) then Eclipse (amazing) and finally Breaking Dawn omg after reading the books i couldn't wait to see how the films would capture this enthralling story and was not disappointed well maybe a little but only because you get so much more in the books, with breaking dawn it even has part from Jacobs point of view which is great , this like all the others is a must read even if you are just getting acquainted with this saga. I know you won't be disappointed, just finished the short life of Bree Tanner another great book from Stephenie Meyer and can't wait for Edwards Journal Midnight Sun
4.5 Great ending to the twilight SAGA! Gemize | 16/11/2010 | See all Gemize's reviews (1) Fan of twilight well worth the read.. fantastic ending to the saga! Hooked from beginning to end.

After I had watched the movies I couldn't wait to see what happened next so bought this.WOW! I was engrossed from beginning to end. I am not an avid reader but once I had started reading I couldn't stop.I can't wait to see how this is made into a movie. Hopefully it wont get ruined.BRILLIANT!!!

This research brief from Relating Research to Practice (RR2P) explores place-based learning to promote inquiry and engagement.
At the 2015 Citizen Science Association inaugural conference, scientists, educators & others met to discuss the field at large.
Private Foundation focused on many areas of scientific research. Each member brings there own expertise to the table and is given individual research for a certain period of time. Meetings every month go over recently completed research and assign new task + talk about upcoming issues. Friendly, hard-working common-sense people wanted. Drop me an application on firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll get back ASAP.
Welcome to the first national workshop in support of the Multi-Institution Science Center Effects Study. This NSF-funded project, which includes two workshops and two online forum discussions, is designed to directly support a national research effort to advance understanding of the effects science centers have on their communities. On October 17, 2014, a group of research and science center experts from across the country will convene for the first of two workshops to learn more about the multi-institution research study and discuss how the research can best address science center questions, issues, and concerns. The goal of this first online forum is to begin these conversations and prepare participants for the upcoming workshop.The project is led by John Falk, Oregon State University, Institute for Learning Innovation. The workshop and forum will also be moderated by: Scott Pattison, Institute for Learning Innovation, Oregon Museum of Science and Industry; Kate Tinworth, ExposeYourMuseum; David Bibas, California Science Center; Steve Fifield, Franklin Institute; and Sharon Kortman, Arizona Science Center.
This Group builds on and proposes to sustain the conversations that have taken place in convenings on media-related STEM learning, including the CAISE Media Convenings in July 2011 and March 2012, as well as the Open Space discussions at the recent PI meeting. Our goal is to understand and leverage the rapid changes in media and technology today to improve informal STEM learning. Our goal is to be inclusive rather than exclusive, because media and technology today have the potential to intersect with and enhance every form of informal science education. So we include traditional mass media, short and long-form television, radio, film, large format and digital media. We also include online learning platforms, computer-based games, social media, affinity spaces and mobile technologies. We hope the discussion will inform the application of these technologies to museums, zoos and science centers, just as the development of new types of interactive technologies in these spaces, such as immersive 3D, is informing other media applications. Content from the existing site at www.caisemedia.org will be added here in the coming weeks.
