RANA HUSSEINI with Robert S. Eshelman
by Robert S. EshelmanIn Murder in the Name of Honor (Oneworld), Jordanian journalist Rana Husseini describes how she became a leading voice against so-called honor killings, first, investigating the issue for the Jordan Times newspaper and, then, helping to found a grassroots movement seeking to end the practice. Robert S. Eshelman spoke with Husseini during her recent North American book tour.
Robert S. Eshelman (Rail): What are so-called honor killings and how prevalent is the practice in Jordan, across the Middle East, and in other parts of the world?
Rana HUSSEINI: So-called honor killings occur when a family member of a female relative believes that she has tarnished the image or reputation of the family and they kill her. Usually, this is because the woman went out with a strange man or became pregnant out of wedlock, was a victim of suspicion or rumor, or was raped. Sometimes, a woman might be killed for going out with a man of her own choosing or even going missing for a period of time. Other times it is for financial reasons—for inheritance. So the family finds no solution but to kill her to reclaim their family honor. Now, in Jordan, there are about 20 to 25 cases a year. But this is a global problem; it is not a problem that is restricted to one country, religion, or class. The killing of women occurs all over the world. These so-called "honor killings" have occurred in several countries, among Muslims, Christians, Yazidis, Hindus, and Sikhs.
RAIL: How did you begin to investigate this issue?
HUSSEINI: I was working as a reporter for the Jordan Times. In 1993, six months into my journalism career, I came across a very sad story of a 16-year old school girl, who was killed by her family because she was raped by one of her brothers. Now this was not a typical story that one came across every day. I discovered that her brother threatened to kill her if she told anyone about the rape. She had to tell her family because she became pregnant. Then she underwent a secret abortion and was married to a man who was 34 years older than her. Then six months later this man divorced her. The day he divorced her, her family killed her and blamed her for the rape. When I went to discuss the issue with her relatives, they basically blamed her for the rape and said that she seduced her brother to sleep with her. This story really shocked me and I reported it for the Jordan Times. The following day, we received a phone call from a prominent female intellectual, who was screaming at my editors because of my reporting of these crimes, saying this is not part of our society. At the time, the issue was taboo and no one wanted to talk about it. So I said that I was going to document each and every case in the hopes that someone would hear me. Then, I went to the courts and found that men who commit these crimes get away with very lenient sentences—three months, six months, a year—for taking a woman's life. No one was writing about this. Finally, I went to the prison and found that the women who somehow survived attempts on their lives were put in prison, supposedly for their own safety. Some of them had been there for a very long time, locked up for indefinite periods without charge. The only people that can secure their release are their families and usually when they do this it is in order to kill them.
RAIL: In your book, as much as you discuss the particular murders that you covered for the Jordan Times, you also discuss the incredible grassroots movement that emerged as a result of your reporting. Describe that campaign and what impact it has had in Jordan.
HUSSEINI: Of course, readers of the Jordan Times started writing letters expressing their objection to these crimes. In 1998, I won the Rebook Human Rights Award, which put a lot of focus on Jordan because there were a lot of television stations that produced documentaries about so-called honor killings. When I returned to Jordan, a group of young men and women approached me and said: let's do something on the grassroots level. So we formed an organization called the Jordanian National Committee to Eliminate So-called Crimes of Honor. We were seven women and four men, meeting on a weekly basis, trying to figure out what we needed to do. So we decided that we would collect 50,000 signatures for a petition that we would present to Parliament demanding that they change the laws concerning crimes. At the same time, we handed out pamphlets and talked to people about the issue. Of course our activities were heavily discussed in the newspapers—debates ensued—people opposing us, people supporting us. It was really an exciting time because we were able to break two social taboos. The first was the taboo of this subject of so-called honor killings and the second taboo was signing petitions, being politically active. For the longest time people were skeptical or worried about signing a petition, fearing that security forces might arrest them. So we were able, as citizens, to express our demands and our desires by signing a petition. And this was something very important I think. We're seeing some results now. In 2000, the British government backed a five-year project to train judges, prosecutors, police, forensics experts—basically everyone dealing with domestic violence issues—on how to how to detect a suicide or accidental death and how to tell when it is a murder. We're seeing a big change of attitude and they are taking the murder of women much more seriously. Recently the criminal court sentenced a man to 15 years for killing a relative, which is the most severe sentence ever given in Jordan. So change has happened, but we are always looking for more. The number of women being killed has remained the same but awareness is increasing of these crimes and the penalties are increasing.
RAIL: Just in the past few weeks there was another killing in Jordan, which was widely reported. Can you discuss this incident?
HUSSEINI: I read about this while in the U.S. a man killed his daughter using a sword for reasons related to family honor. There have been 19 cases this year. A sociologist I spoke with believes the number of killings will go up before they go down because women are going out much more then they used to; social norms are changing. This has caused a lot of suspicion on the part of male relatives, who seemed to be monitoring women's movements much more closely. Again though I think the most important thing to pay attention to is the change of attitudes. Even the government is now admitting there is a problem. Everyone is trying to make a difference on this issue. I think things will pay off later on. When I started, really, no one was talking about the issue. People either ignored it or didn't want to discuss it. They considered it taboo or a family problem. So I think things will change in the future.
RAIL: The issue of women's rights has been used, in part, in the U.S. to legitimize the invasions and occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq as well as, more generally, attack Arab and Muslim culture. In what ways do you think someone can support the struggle of women in the Middle East without unwittingly becoming an accomplice to these anti-Arab and anti-Muslim attacks?
HUSSEINI: I believe organizations, governments, anyone concerned about domestic violence should address the issue from a global perspective. I think it is unwise to pinpoint a particular nation or religion as the culprit. If you want to fight domestic violence it has to be global. Women are being killed all over the world. They are being killed by their husbands, by their fathers, by their brothers, and other male family members. So this is really not a problem pertaining to one society or religion. If certain governments or non-governmental organizations keep pinpointing this problem as happening in only one particular country or among one specific religious group, then that shows that they are politicizing the issue. So that is why we have to be very careful, very sensitive, in addressing the issue if we want to see change. It is a global problem. There are some countries where people are really struggling with this issue—women in Jordan, in Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Palestine. People think that these countries have the highest rates of these murders, when they really don't.
RAIL: One aspect of your book that seems especially important is that your present Jordanian women not solely as victims of these crimes but also as agents for change. Yes, many women are killed by their relatives or husbands but thousands of women are breaking the taboo, as you say, by beginning to discuss the issue openly and fight to change social mores and the laws that perpetuate this violence.
HUSSEINI: In my book I document the struggles of these people because I think it is important for readers to understand how each society handles the issue of so-called honor killings—the successes in fighting these crimes and the horrors of each woman's story. I want readers who seek to work on the issue of ending violence against women to understand this issue, to learn from other's experiences, to know that there is work going on around the world and change could happen, and will happen, actually.

FIX: nvidia 8756 fullscreen not stretching in games
Keywords: quake 3, quake 4, games, 8756, fullscreen, black borders, occupying, window, bottom left, scaling
Just thought I'd pass along this solution that worked for me... I'm a linux newbie running Fedora Core 5 with the latest nvidia driver (8756), and whenever I loaded games like Quake 3 in fullscreen, the window wouldn't fill my viewport. The 800x600 in-game resolution I normally run would only fill the bottom left corner of my screen which runs at 1280x1024 on the GNOME desktop. I found a workaround by manually adding available resolutions to my X config: Code:
su - gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf Code:
Modes Code:
Section "Screen" SubSection "Display" Code:
Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 16 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "960x720" "800x600" "640x480" "512x384" "400x300" "320x240" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "960x720" "800x600" "640x480" "512x384" "400x300" "320x240" EndSubSection EndSection It works like a charm now... I hope this helps everyone else suffering from the same issue. Cheers. |

PIC: Radiant Kim Richards Steps Out Post-Rehab
Kim Richards seems to be in much better spirits since leaving an undisclosed rehab facility earlier this week.
The 47-year-old reality star was all smiles when she and older sister Kathy Hilton emerged from Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills Wednesday evening. Wearing matching black and white ensembles, the siblings happily posed for photographers outside the famous Chinese restaurant.
PHOTOS: Celebrity rehab centers
Still, one sibling was noticeably missing from the outing: Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards-Umansky, who turned 43 that same day. "So many loving birthday wishes!" Kyle tweeted. "Thank you all so much for your kind words!"
VIDEO: Lisa VanderPump impersonates Kim Richards
As Us Weekly first reported, Kim's month-long stint in rehab wasn't easy for the Bravo star. "She tried to leave and ended up coming back," one insider revealed in December, adding that the former child actress was "very defiant."

"Kim's alcohol addiction along with other substance abuse problems has been obvious for quite some time," a close pal told Us in early December, shortly after the TV star sought treatment. "It's really good that she's finally getting help."

Title: | REPRESENTING LAYOUT INFORMATION IN THE CMSD SPECIFICATION |
Published: | July 09, 2008 |
Abstract: | Developing mechanisms for the efficient exchange of information between simulations and other manufacturing tools is a critical problem today. For many areas of manufacturing, neither representations for the information nor mechanisms for exchanging the information have been agreed upon. One area that has this problem is manufacturing plant layout. The Core Manufacturing Simulation Data (CMSD) specification is being developed to address some of these issues, through the definition of neutral representations for some of the core manufacturing entities that need to be exchanged between simulations and other applications, through the creation of an United Modeling Language (UML) information model that defines the relationships between the core manufacturing entities, and through the definition of eXtensible Modeling Language (XML) Schemas based on the UML information model to facilitate the exchange of information that adheres to the model. In this paper, an effort to extend the CMSD specification to cover the definition and exchange of layout information is discussed. |

No Icenetwork for us Europeans. Again. I can understand that Icenetwork isn't interested in more European subscriptions, but it's really really sad that they just don't bother to think about us. Now Eurosport abondened figure skating the season suddenly looks a bit glum. Depending on online streams is stressful. I really wish there was a solution to this all. Anyone know how to hack IPadresses so my laptop can pretend it's located in Alabama or something...
The Canadian SkateBuzz site (www.skatebuzz.com) is apparently streaming the complete TEB competition. I just registered (it's free), although I don't know if registration is necessary to view the stream. The registration process involved entering my address and that required me to pick my country from a long list of choices. So you could certainly access the site and register without a problem. However, I don't know if you can see the stream if you are outside Canada. I suppose it is worth trying though.
Good news from Fsvids. NTV will show GP! http://www.rutelevision.com/index-en.asp
yes 3 free days work i think it works from everywhere, no?
We can only hope that everything goes well and we can watch it!
By the same token, those of us in the US that are not near the Canadian border can't get CBCs awesome coverage. Lately we're lucky if we can get anything - but at least NBC has come across with SOMEthing. I'd/we'd be totally lost without Icenetwork. Hopefully fans everywhere will find SOME way to watch this season.
It seems I lost all my hopes for watching TEB this year. I suddenly realised I don't have media player on my MAC. I'm wondering how I coped without it before! I tried to get one but I can't download anything on my computer plus ntv channel does not work for Mac's at all. Additionly I'm in UK so have no idea what else I can do. I'm devostated. Any advise or technical help, please?
I actually have the same problem. I went Linux a few months ago - and then found out that the Russian TV only works for Windows. Now I got WINE, which is a Linux program, that imitates Windows parametres, but I am still not sure if the webtv is working with that one - and I don't want to buy a subscription before I know that it's really working.
I got nothing. Except for waiting till a certain website has all the vids up. That often has the advantage that I can have a look at the results first and if I see e.g. Joubert 110 points for LP with -4 deductions - I don't have to watch that.
Or I make a new partition on my harddisk and install a Windows version there. But I don't want to, I wanted to get rid of that commercial nonsense.
wait--you mean NTV doesn't work for mac? there's nothing you can download to adapt it to work for mac? i was hoping to use NTV to record some webstream...
if anyone can help figure out NTV and mac, tell us which programs we can download to make it compatible, please do share. thank you

If you have no problems waiting untill the next patch I'd wait if I were you. I believe the next patch will resolve enough bugs and issues to make the game quite a bit better, so it would give you a much better impression. For instance, the next patch will update the AI, so the weird situations many experience now might be gone.
Still, I'm loving the game now and will untill and after the next patch comes, so the issues aren't big enough to stop the fun. I just hope savegame corruption and so on will end in the next patch, as that will reduce the risk of being extremely frustrated.

When Betty Chetcuti had her first child seven years ago, she survived on other people's advice. Except, that is, when it came to co-sleeping. "I felt there was overwhelming pressure to have children sleep in a separate bed without any justification for it," she says. "I was in love with my little boy and just didn't want to let go, I just wanted to watch him." Despite the anxieties that come with being a first-time mother, Ms Chetcuti, 37, followed her instinct and allowed Nicholas, now seven, to share a bed with his parents for more than a year. Her desire to do this was as much about being close to her first-born, as improving the quality of sleep for herself and Nicholas. "I was better able to help him settle and then the sleep process was less traumatic for him," she says. "And I was less stressed about 'what if my child is not breathing', or feeling that I really wanted to be with him." She did the same with her second son Liam, now five, who stayed for about six months. Both boys now sleep in their own beds, but return every now and then for a visit. Ms Chetcuti says the benefits of co-sleeping go beyond the practicalities of being able to monitor the baby. "It's such a natural thing to do," she says. "The skin-to-skin contact and sensing that the parent is near makes them feel safer." Ms Chetcuti, now 24 weeks pregnant with her third child, says co-sleeping also makes breastfeeding more convenient and it allows the father to become more aware of the demands of a baby while cementing a bond. And when it comes to moving the child to a bed, she says if parents can monitor the family's needs, a child will not feel pushed out

Ecowatts Miracle Tube —
The Mail on Sunday reports that a British company called Ecowatts claims to have created a device that seems to create energy from virtually nothing. It's a 12-inch tube that you plug into your electrical outlet. The device then creates more heat energy than the electrical energy put into it can account for. They hope to market this revolutionary tube as a home-heating device.
Sounds like another free-energy scam to me. If the device really did output more energy than is put into it,…

Blacklight Power and Hydrinos —
Status: Most likely a free energy scam An article in the Guardian about Dr. Randall Mills, founder of Blacklight Power, has been generating a lot of debate in the blogosphere. For instance, there's discussion of the article over on Slashdot, and a link to it also got posted in the hoax forum. I wanted to add a few comments here because, although many people might be hearing about Mills for the first time (thanks to the Guardian article), the guy has actually been lurking around since…

Yet Another Solution for the World's Power and Energy Needs —
The GMC Holding Corporation sure isn't bashful about what it believes to be the potential market value of its new technology. According to this press release, its technology will solve the world's energy needs, providing pollution-free power to any kind of motorized product (car, boat, golf cart, etc.). And here's the best part: "The overall market value is expected to exceed a trillion dollars over the next 10 years and these estimates are more than likely to be low." Wow! A trillion…

Water From Air —
Shea Cockrum thinks that extracting water from air is the solution to the world's water shortage. Honestly, I'm not sure whether he's a nutcase, or if his theories could actually work. He claims that he was extracting one or two gallons of water an hour from an "air well" that he constructed in his backyard consisting of buried PVC pipe through which hot air was blown. One or two gallons of water an hour, if he was really getting this, isn't bad at all. And according to Cockrum, this…

Jydsk Atomic Power —
Here's a hoax website from Denmark. It's Jydsk Atomic Power (in bad English via automatic translation here). I discovered the site through an article in a Danish newspaper (bad translation) that mentioned it, and also linked to my site. My Danish is a little rusty (nonexistent actually), but from what I can make out Jydsk Atomic Power claims to be overclocking their atomic reactor, thereby producing electricity with twice as much power. All electric devices drawing this double-strength…

Hoax Industries Enoon Car —
Since I'm on the subject of free-energy cars, here's the ENOON Car by Hoax Industries. "The ENOON*-device is able to power a car for an
unlimited time period without the need of refuelling!" ENOON stands for 'energy out of nowhere.'

Water-Fueled Car —
Earth2012 this month announced the launch of a major new project: they're going to build a water-fueled car. And they're soliciting donations to help them achieve this ambitious dream. Of course, a water-fueled car might raise a few skeptical eyebrows, but Earth2012 says the science behind their project is all very sound. The tank of their car will be filled up with water, but the water will then be converted onboard into hydrogen. So it's really a hydrogen-powered car, not a…

Japanese Magnetic Fan —
Kohei Minato, a Japanese inventor, has built an incredible new kind of magnet-powered electric motor. As this article on Japan.com explains, "Minato's motors consume just 20 percent or less of the power of conventional motors with the same torque and horse power. They run cool to the touch and produce almost no acoustic or electrical noise. They are significantly safer and cheaper (in terms of power consumed), and they are sounder environmentally." Sounds really great. Until you read…

Joseph Papp and his Submarine —
Infinite Energy, 'The Magazine of New Energy Science and Technology,' has devoted its entire current issue to analyzing the work of Joseph Papp, the Hungarian inventor who claimed to have built some kind of fusion-powered engine that used noble gases as fuel (i.e. we're talking 'free-energy' technology here). In the 1960s he also claimed to have built a submarine that could travel at 300 mph, and in a test run of this craft he said that he travelled from Canada to France in 13 hours…

Joseph Papp —
A visitor named Heinz Klostermann sent me quite a bit of info about Joseph Papp, a Hungarian-born inventor who first claimed that he had built a submarine capable of traveling at 300 mph, and later claimed to have built a car engine that could run for six months without refueling. Heinz sent an article about Papp that appeared in the San Jose Mercury News in 1989, as well as an article apparently written by the physicist Richard Feynman describing a demonstration of Papp's engine. It…

The Hunt For Zero Point —
Anti-gravity technology has been getting a lot of attention lately, on the heels of the news that Boeing is testing some kind of anti-gravity device. Salon reviews THE HUNT FOR ZERO POINT by Nick Cook, an editor at Jane's Defense Weekly. It's all about the US Government's classified research into anti-gravity technology. Sounds interesting, but it also sounds like the author got seduced by the idea that such technology might exist and began making some pretty far-fetched assumptions.

Satchel's Rising Costs
At an annual art festival tonight, supporters are sounding the drumbeats of support for Satchel's.
It's empty now; but according to Michala Jones, it'll pick back up.
"Satchel's has great pizza, they have great service, you know they're a well known business here in town," she said.
Satchel's owner, Satchel Raye, is worried about his employees.
"Getting everything done right and trying to make it more efficient instead of just putting it back the way it was, is just going to take more time," he said.
Up to three months, according to Raye; three months that his 50 employees will be out of a job.
"This is bigger than we thought, its going to take longer and cost more than we thought, but we don't have a choice," he said.
The price tag- Raye estimates up to $100,000.
"We're not covered for any loss of the product, any loss of equipment, or business, we're covered for the building only," he said.
However Raye says the community's assurance gives the Satchel's crew hope.
"It really gets me through the day knowing that people are out there that care, and that really want us to reopen, and want to help us in
any way they can," he said.
Raye says people donated $20,000 for his employees today alone.
The festival will continue on Saturday and Sunday, nine to three at Thornbrook Village.
Raye says it doesn't look like there's anything he could have done to prevent the fire- the studs behind the oven were very old and dry, and started to ignite from the heat coming from the ovens

ESPN Parts With Commentator Who Questioned Robert Griffin III's "Blackness"
Rob Parker will not return to "First Take."
Rob Parker will not return to ESPN after calling Robert Griffin III a "cornball brother," and questioning his "blackness." ESPN did not fire Parker outright, but instead simply let his contract expire at the end of 2012 and decided not to renew it, according to a very short ESPN statement. Parker was formally suspended by ESPN on December 20th for 30 days after his controversial rant on the December 13th episode of ESPN's "First Take."
Evaluating our needs and his work, including his recent RG III comments, we decided not to renew his deal.
4. Parker tweeted this apology for the segment the day before he was suspended by ESPN.
Parker has since been very quiet on his Twitter account, which is still registered as @RobParkerESPN, usually only tweeting thanks to followers who compliment him.

A comparison of work ethic descriptors among technical college advisory committee members, instructors, and students
Abstract (Summary)
The purpose of this study was to identify the perceived importance of work ethic
descriptors of technical college advisory committee members, instructors, and students to
aid in work ethic curriculum planning and subsequent instruction. Data was collected
using the Occupational Work Ethic Inventory (OWEI) with a revised stem. The
independent variable for this study was the position of respondents. The dependent
variables were the four dimensions of occupational work ethic represented by the
subgroups on the OWEI of dependable, considerate, ambitious, and cooperative.
The population for this study consisted of members of a technical college in the
South East. A purposive sample was taken from advisory committee members, faculty
and students of the selected college, comprising a sample that was believed to be
representative of the population.
The methodology used for this research was parameter estimation. This type of
research is conducted on samples to estimate the level of one or more population
characteristics. A survey instrument was utilized to obtain the data used in the
Data analysis involved both descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive
statistics were used to summarize the demographic data information on the sample. A
series of one way analysis of variance procedures were used to determine whether there
was a significant difference between the means on the OWEI subscale scores. The
Scheffe` post-hoc test was conducted to control for experiment-wise error rate and reveal
where group differences fell.
The results indicated a discrepancy between advisory committee members,
students, and faculty on all four subgroups of the OWEI. Whereas faculty and students
were most aligned in their perceived level on the subscales of dependable, ambitious, and
cooperative, they did differ on their perceived level of considerate.
Recommendations for future study include replication of this study utilizing all of
the technical colleges within the Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education.
Also, indications were clear that advisory committee members, faculty, and students need
to be actively and continuously involved in the work ethic curriculum development

While yogurt is more commonly used as a tenderizing marinade for lamb kebabs, in this recipe from Crete it is mixed with cinnamon and spread on a leg of lamb during only the last 15 minutes of roasting. Surprisingly, the yogurt forms a wonderful savory crust.
- One 5- or 6-pound leg of lamb on the bone
- 6 cloves garlic plus 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons plus 3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- Salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 1 1/2 cups whole or low-fat plain yogurt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon all-purpose flour
Using a small, sharp knife, cut about 12 slits, each about 1/2 inch deep, in the leg of lamb, spacing them evenly. Cut 3 of the garlic cloves into thin slivers and place in a small bowl with the 2 teaspoons of rosemary. Mix well and insert the garlic mixture in the slits.
Finely chop the remaining 3 garlic cloves and place in a small bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of the rosemary, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice. Mix well. Rub this mixture all over the leg of lamb. Cover and let marinate for 2 hours at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator.
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the lamb in a roasting pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, the remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice, the remaining 1 tablespoon rosemary and the 2 teaspoons minced garlic. Roast the lamb, basting every 20 minutes with the oil-lemon mixture, for 1 1/4 hours.
Whisk together the yogurt, cinnamon and flour in another bowl. Spoon the mixture over the lamb and continue to roast until the yogurt sauce sets up and the lamb is done to your liking, about 15 minutes longer for medium-rare. Insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part of the leg away from the bone to test. It should register 145-150 degrees F for medium-rare.
Transfer the lamb to a warm serving platter and let rest for 8-10 minutes. Carve and serve hot.

A Spokane couple trying to rebuild their lives and remodel their home has become the target of brazen burglars.
In the past month, Billington and his wife Pam, moved everything they own into their detached garage to make room for church volunteers to remodel and repair their home on North Addison Road.
On Monday, the Billington's discovered thieves broke into the garage and stole several items including a flat screen television and grandfather clock.
"It just floors us because we don't know where to go now or what to do because we just don't have the money to replace any of this stuff," said Billington
The thieves then returned three more times over the course of three days. In all, the bold burglars got away with several thousand dollars worth of electronics, gardening tools and a brand new toilet.
"That's pretty low in my opinion. I don't understand that kind of thing," said Pam Billington
She said she called Lowe's, where she bought the toilet, to give customer service employees a heads up in case the thieves tried to return it for cash.
A Lowe's employee called her back and said the thieves tried to get a refund but they were denied because they didn't have a receipt.
Billington now hopes surveillance video from the home improvement store will help police nab the burglars.
The burglary is just one of many traumatic experiences for the Billington's over the past year.
In January, John survived triple bypass heart surgery. A few months earlier he won his battle with prostate cancer.
"I'm a cancer survivor, I'm a cardiac arrest survivor. But, I don't know if I can survive this," he said
"If it wasn't for our faith in God we wouldn't have the strength to do anything," said Pam.
The Cheney Community Church is helping the Billington's get back on their feet. If you'd like to help contact Garth Steele 270-1106

Rated 5 / 5 stars
Karl motherfucking Pilkington
If I was a few years younger, got a terminal illness, and got the whole 'make a wish foundation' thingo, I would want this man to sit by my bed and hold my dainty hand, and share his world views with me. Then I could most certainly die happy.

Flip Zooming
Abstract (Summary)
This thesis describes the development of a Focus+Context information visualization technique called Flip Zooming. Based on two initial examples of the technique, the work reported here expands the description and functionality of the technique by the development of a number of applications as well as by some theoretical contributions. The thesis consists of six papers and a frame. The first paper describes The Digital Variants Browser, which supports comparative studies of variants of texts. The second paper, Hierarchical Flip Zooming, describes how the technique can be generalized to support hierarchical visualization by use of nested instances of Flip Zooming. The third paper describes WEST (a WEB Browser for Small Terminals), an application of Flip Zooming for the visualization of web pages on hand-held computers. The fourth paper, PowerView, describes another application designed for hand-held computers; this application supports tasks that require several different types of information. The fifth paper introduces a framework for describing Flip Zooming and other Focus+Context visualizations as higher-order visualizations. The sixth paper identifies preconceptions about Focus+Context techniques that have become apparent during the work on Flip Zooming, and shows how these preconceptions can be transgressed to create novel visualizations. The frame relates the Flip Zooming technique to other information visualization techniques and describes the development of the technique by using Mackay and Fayard's model for research within Human-Computer Interaction. It concludes by presenting specific guidelines for developing future Flip Zooming applications, as well as general guidelines for developing other information visualization techniques.

Terminally ill cancer patients, and people undergoing chemotherapy, are being threatened with benefit cuts if they do not attend back-to-work interviews, warn leading charities, Macmillan Cancer Support and Citizens Advice.
A new report by the two charities has found the Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) process, introduced last October to encourage 'job ready' people to return to work, is failing seriously ill and disabled people, despite assurances from the government that they would be safeguarded from the system.
Findings from the report, Failed by the system , show:
Patricia Watson from London was on a career break and about to start a new job when she was diagnosed with terminal bowel cancer. She said:
'I was so shocked when I received a letter asking me to go to an assessment centre during my third cycle of chemotherapy. I was told that if I didn't attend the interview my benefits would be stopped. No one was thinking about my condition or applying any common sense, I just felt part of a conveyor belt system."
According to the report, poor knowledge of ESA rules among Jobcentre Plus and DWP medical staff, inadequate administration systems and a lack of understanding about cancer and the effects of treatment, is resulting in ESA claims being incorrectly handled. Some terminally ill people are dying before they get the financial support they needed.
Since April 2008, Citizens Advice Bureaux in England and Wales have dealt with over 85,000 enquiries about ESA and Macmillan's benefits helpline has taken over 600 calls about the benefit since May this year.
Mike Hobday, Head of Campaigns at Macmillan Cancer Support, said:
'It's cruel and completely unacceptable that people who are terminally ill or going through gruelling treatment are being made to jump through hoops to get money they should receive automatically. The safeguards to protect cancer patients clearly aren't working, and the ESA system is riddled with problems. The DWP must address these issues without delay to make sure people living with cancer are spared unnecessary distress and financial hardship.'
Lizzie Iron, Head of Welfare Policy at Citizens Advice, said:
'Citizens Advice Bureaux are reporting significant evidence of a range of problems with delivery of the ESA system which are causing real hardship to the most vulnerable when things go wrong. People claiming ESA are frequently seriously ill with urgent needs. It is important that the claiming process works smoothly so that people do not get stuck in the system or are unable to get through on the phone. DWP and Jobcentre Plus must rectify these problems quickly and put more safeguards in place so people do not continue to suffer.'
Citizens Advice also publishes the first of a series of papers on ESA today. Limited capability sets out concerns that the number CAB enquiries relating to poor administration of the new benefit is higher than expected, and that there has been an accompanying sharp increase in CAB qualitative evidence on these issues.

This is my version of a scarf or kerchief that was all over the
Norwegian blogs in 2008.
The principle is to take one or a couple of skeins, and knit a triangle using your exact amount of yarn. A good way to use up one of those single skeins of sock yarn in bright colours.
It works with any kind of yarn, but I prefer a less than bulky yarn.
I used one skein of Hello Yarn sock yarn.
Choose needles that go well with the yarn you use.
To be able to know when I had used up half of my skein, I used a
I weighed my yarn before casting on. Weighing the skein every now and
then, I started decreasing when I had about 50% of the skein left.
How to knit:
Cast on 4.
Row 1: Knit 1, YO, knit the rest of the row.
Row 2: Knit, make sure you knit the YO through the back loop.
Rows 3 and 4: Knit.
Repeat rows 1 through 4 until you have used up half your yarn, or until your scarf is 50% of desired length.
Then decrease 1 every 4th row:
Row 1: Knit 1, knit 2 stitches together through the back loop. Knit
the rest of the row.
Rows 2, 3 and 4: Knit.
When you have 4 stitches left, bind off.
You can increase and decrease in a number of ways, use the ones you

Tack för mönstret, det här var ett roligt mönster. Såg Karius och Baktus när jag var liten och grät floder för jag tyckte så synd om dom. Det var nog inte riktigt tanken bakom filmen, men jag vägrade borsta tänderna länge efteråt :)
Thanks for sharing this, I haven't knitted for many years but seeing this project got me picking my needles back up!
It' nice to see so many people using this pattern!

Mossad blows up bus in Tel-Aviv, blames it on Hamas | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1327987 United States 11/21/2012 09:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't think the fact that the bus was empty necessarily points to Mossad. For a start tptb don't hesitate to kill their own in order to create a false flag. And what's a few own goals in the interests of stopping a peace settlement!! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27746809 Israel already proved they don't want peace by assassinating a major player who had just received a long term peace proposal during a truce. Not saying it couldn't be Mossad. In fact I think it very likely could be. But if the bus was empty at the time of the blast, this probably just points to wrong timing by the perpetrator - whoever that was. Your first sentence shows you've got a bit reasoning left. But the rest of your sentences were somehow FALSE FAGGOT tainted. You FALSE FAGS believed Mossad was the main operator behind that great 911 operation, which means, if you have some brain, they can do it perfectly in their timing. Now how come that perfected god Mossad was so lame in their timing to just blow up a tiny speck of bus? Please false faggers, Mossad as the perfect creator of every terrorism in this galaxy is definitely offended by your lame portrayal. Please do not make sweeping generalizations. We all know that CIA created Al Qaeda. We all know that the men who perpetrated 911 had lots of cover from the inside. It is actually so much as to be ridiculous. We all know that those responsible went overboard with distractions to lead people away from the truth that yes "Al Qaeda" hijacked the planes and yes CIA knew all about it from inception. The distractions ranged from blue beam to aliens. Any and every story to make the truth look ridiculous. We all know that Operation Northwoods was a fact and is proof as to what the gov is capable of. We all know that people like you who ignore established facts are bottom of the barrel fools. I guess that Operation Paperclip never happened either. It is just "too out there". hiya death parrot (of false faggerism), when a false fagger proclaiming Mossad executed the grand 911, it means Mossad is near perfect sophisticated agency. When a false fagger also proclaim Mossad blew up bus but can't kill one in a very tiny operation, a healthy skeptic may question your consistency, is Mossad sophisticated or sloppy? Well, you false faggers apparently don't care about consistency. Your dead parroting of the phrase "we all know" is showing your true color. It's nothing but a code word for "we false faggers blindly believe". Now let's give an example of brain damaged logic: - Statement: We all know (have blind faith) Operation Northwoods is proof as to what the gov is capable of - Conclusion: every terrorism in this whole universe are Mossad's operation. Based on that brain damaged logic, I hereby proclaim the new religion: false faggerism. or false faggotism. Pick one. |

Meanwhile, Arafat's Fatah Movement for National Liberation as well as the Palestinian Left were subjected to the most brutal form of repression and intimidation Let us not forget that it was Israel, which in fact created Hamas. According to Zeev Sternell, historian at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, "Israel thought that it was a smart ploy to push the Islamists against the Palestinian Liberation Organisation (PLO)". Ahmed Yassin, the spiritual leader of the Islamist movement in Palestine, returning from Cairo in the seventies, established an Islamic charity association. Prime Minister Golda Meir, saw this as a an opportunity to counterbalance the rise of Arafat's Fatah movement. .According to the Israeli weekly Koteret Rashit (October 1987), "The Islamic associations as well as the university had been supported and encouraged by the Israeli military authority" in charge of the (civilian) administration of the West Bank and Gaza. "They [the Islamic associations and the university] were authorized to receive money payments from abroad." The Islamists set up orphanages and health clinics, as well as a network of schools, workshops which created employment for women as well as system of financial aid to the poor. And in 1978, they created an "Islamic University" in Gaza. "The military authority was convinced that these activities would weaken both the PLO and the leftist organizations in Gaza." At the end of 1992, there were six hundred mosques in Gaza. Thanks to Israel's intelligence agency Mossad (Israel's Institute for Intelligence and Special Tasks) , the Islamists were allowed to reinforce their presence in the occupied territories. Meanwhile, the members of Fatah (Movement for the National Liberation of Palestine) and the Palestinian Left were subjected to the most brutal form of repression. In 1984, Ahmed Yassin was arrested and condemned to twelve years in prison, after the discovery of a hidden arms cache. But one year later, he was set free and resumed his activities. And when the Intifada ('uprising') began, in October 1987, which took the Islamists by surprise, Sheik Yassin responded by creating the Hamas (The Islamic Resistance Movement): "God is our beginning, the prophet our model, the Koran our constitution", proclaims article 7 of the charter of the organization. Ahmed Yassin was in prison when, the Oslo accords (Declaration of Principles on Interim Self-Government) were signed in September 1993. The Hamas had rejected Oslo outright. But at that time, 70% of Palestinians had condemned the attacks on Israeli civilians. Yassin did everything in his power to undermine the Oslo accords. Even prior to Prime Minister Rabin's death, he had the support of the Israeli government. The latter was very reluctant to implement the peace agreement. The Hamas then launched a carefully timed campaign of attacks against civilians, one day before the meeting between Palestinian and Israeli negotiators, regarding the formal recognition of Israel by the National Palestinian Council. These events were largely instrumental in the formation of a Right wing Israeli government following the May 1996 elections. Quite unexpectedly, Prime Minister Netanyahu ordered Sheik Ahmed Yassin to be released from prison ("on humanitarian grounds") where he was serving a life sentence. Meanwhile, Netanyahu, together with President Bill Clinton, was putting pressure on Arafat to control the Hamas. In fact, Netanyahu knew that he could rely, once more, on the Islamists to sabotage the Oslo accords. Worse still: after having expelled Yassin to Jordan, Prime Minister Netanyahu allowed him to return to Gaza, where he was welcomed triumphantly as a hero in October 1997. Arafat was helpless in the face of these events. Moreover, because he had supported Saddam Hussein during the1991 Gulf war, (while the Hamas had cautiously abstained from taking sides), the Gulf states decided to cut off their financing of the Palestinian Authority. Meanwhile, between February and April 1998, Sheik Ahmad Yassin was able to raise several hundred million dollars, from those same countries. The the budget of The Hamas was said to be greater than that of the Palestinian Authority. These new sources of funding enabled the Islamists to effectively pursue their various charitable activities. It is estimated that one Palestinian out of three is the recipient of financial aid from the Hamas. And in this regard, Israel has done nothing to curb the inflow of money into the occupied territories. The Hamas had built its strength through its various acts of sabotage of the peace process, in a way which was compatible with the interests of the Israeli government. In turn, the latter sought in a number of ways, to prevent the application of the Oslo accords. In other words, Hamas was fulfilling the functions for which it was originally created: to prevent the creation of a Palestinian State. And in this regard, Hamas and Ariel Sharon, see eye to eye; they are exactly on the same wave length. |

"Specifically, I wonder whether something is wrong with quarterback Philip Rivers' throwing arm, and I know some league executives and coaches who have similar suspicions," Silver wrote.
Rivers struggled during Sunday's loss against the Browns. He completed just 18-34 passes for 154 yards. Through the Chargers first seven games this season, Rivers is averaging career-worst 6.8 yards per attempt. On top of that, he has also turned the ball over 12 times.
Last year, there was a lot of speculation that Rivers was playing hurt, but he insisted that he was 100 percent. Rivers will need to find a way to right the ship as the Chargers have lost three games in a row and four of their last five.
