Latest 2004–05 San Antonio Spurs season Stories
Michael Finley beat the game clock, but not the shot clock, with a 3-pointer that officials let stand Sunday in the San Antonio Spurs 95-92 win over Sacramento. With the game tied 92-92, Finley collected a pass from a driving Tony Parker and fired the 3-pointer with 1.3 seconds left to play.
Tony Parker scored 18 points Friday and was one of seven San Antonio players in double figures, lifting the Spurs to a 111-98 win over the Los Angeles Clippers. San Antonio won its third in a row and increased its lead in the Southwest Division to 1 ½ games over idle Houston. Manu Ginobili added 14 points and both Tim Duncan and Michael Finley had 13.
A 42-point performance by Tony Parker Wednesday allowed San Antonio to pull away in the fourth quarter and down Atlanta 102-92. The Spurs increased their lead over idle Houston at the top of the Southwest Division to a full game. Parker took 25 shots from the field -- a third of San Antonio's total -- and made 18 of them.
Tony Parker made 7-of-9 shots Friday night, scoring 19 points to lead the San Antonio Spurs to a 100-78 blasting of Washington. Ime Udoka paced a busy effort by the Spurs' bench with 13 points.
Tony Parker again picked up the slack for injury-riddled San Antonio Wednesday, scoring 39 points in the Spurs' 99-84 win over Portland. With Manu Ginobili out for at least two more weeks with an ankle injury and center Tim Duncan suffering a sore right quadriceps muscle, Parker has been called upon to carry the load. He scored 37 points in a win over Dallas Tuesday and hit 17-of-27 shots from the field against the Trail Blazers.
Carmelo Anthony scored 35 points Tuesday, pacing Denver to a 104-96 win over shorthanded San Antonio. Anthony also grabbed nine rebounds.
Tony Parker scored 25 points Saturday, boosting the San Antonio Spurs to a 106-93 victory over the New Orleans Hornets. Manu Ginobili added 22 points and Michael Finley 20 for the Spurs, who have won eight of nine home games against the Hornets.
San Antonio used a 10-0 spurt early in the fourth quarter Tuesday to grab the lead and held on to send Utah to its fourth straight loss, 106-100. Tim Duncan and Tony Parker each scored 24 points to power the Spurs to their fifth win in six outings.
Manu Ginobili scored 21 points and Tony Parker had 20 Saturday night to lead the San Antonio Spurs to a 92-87 victory over the Chicago Bulls. Tim Duncan added 18 points and 14 rebounds and Matt Bonner had 12 points and 11 rebounds for the Spurs, who have won six of their last eight games. Ben Gordon had 20 points for the Bulls, who have lost three of five.
Tim Duncan had 20 points and Tony Parker 19 Friday night in leading the San Antonio Spurs to their sixth win in seven games 91-80 over Memphis. The teams finished their four-game series for the season and the Spurs won them all.

Bypassing Apple\'s MacBook Pro wait time
updated 01:30 pm EST, Tue February 14, 2006
MacBook Pro buying tips
Mac users can bypass the current 3-4 week waiting period for their new MacBook Pro by upgrading their laptop with a faster 7,200 rpm version of the included 100GB laptop drive. Though BTO configuration increases the price by about $100, users can receive the BTO configured MacBook Pro in 1-3 business days, according to AppleInsider, which first noted the shopping tip. Apple's BTO (built-to-order) has been used in the past to bypass long shipping times, according to the same report. "In a similar situation, observant customers learned over the holiday shopping season that ordering iPods with an engraving allowed them to bypass weeks of backorders for the same models that did not ship with an engraving (standard configurations)." [Apple has since corrected the ordering glitch]

Search abandoned for missing Antarctic fishing vessel
Published on Apr 1, 2014 11:07 AM
SYDNEY (AFP) - The search for a fishing boat missing near Antarctica was called off on Tuesday, with officials saying there was no chance anyone aboard had survived in the harsh polar environment.
The 75-metre vessel issued a distress signal early on Sunday which showed it was in the southern Indian Ocean about 650 kilometres north of the Antarctic mainland, the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) said.
An Australian air force P3 Orion plane and a civil aircraft were sent to find the boat, which is suspected of being involved in illegal fishing, but they spotted only debris in the area where the distress beacon was activated, with no signs of a life raft or people in the water.
"Based on medical advice... in the current weather conditions there is no chance of survival," AMSA said, calling off the search in the iceberg-studded waters.

I am currently wondering the same thing. I have had 3 ovulation test done in the pst 5 days and all 3 of them have come back positive. I just got over my period on the 8 of August. I started testing on the 11th which put me on day 8 of my cycle and it came back as a equal line then I did another test on the 13th and today the 15. Again those 2 were also positive.

I have been trying to get pg for 5 yrs and are now having a positive ovulation test for seven days now and are worried it has never done this before and I have took more pregnancy test than I am old. I may take one this weekend just scared to get yet another no. So if you all can help it would be greatposted 09/29/2008 by SeannaTryingfor5yrs.
My period was due on the 8th. I had a small amount of bright red bleeding on the 8th and spotted a very small amount on the 9th thru the 12th. I had no signs of starting my period what so ever. Just moody! I have been taking pregnancy test and they have been negative. I took a ovulation test today and it showed a faint line. I am not due to ovulate until the 22nd. Does anyone have an idea that this could mean?posted 04/14/2010 by sweet_melisa29
As in a previous comment, I also went to http://www.peeonastick.com/opkhpt.html, and the website was very helpful. I am kind of going thru the same thing. I have been using ovulation tests for over a month and not one time has it been positive. I am due for my period in a few days and now have a positive ovulation test. I have done some research and it is VERY likely that you will have a positive ovulation test if you are pregnant because the ovulation test reads both LH and HCG.posted 09/01/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
You could be like my sister. She has a double utereus. I that is the case, you can concieve in one and ovulate in the other. At least that's how her doctor explained it.posted 02/15/2008 by mcdanielindigo
I was a week late on the Saturday morning just gone and i did a pregnancy test and sure enough i was pregnant :) ! I had loads of ovulation sticks left in the house so.. I remember reading online before that they give a positive if pregnant so i did 3 and ALL shown positive .. so yes I believe they do work! J xposted 06/17/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
Ive taken 3 ovulations test and they are dark as can be. Is that normal? I feel like i could already be pregnant but im not sure. I dont want to take a test yet cause i dont want to waste it.

McDonald's 4Q net income jumps 11 pct
NEW YORK Budget-conscious diners continue to flock to McDonald's, but investors are beginning to worry about the fast food giant's higher prices and upcoming expenses.
After the company reported Tuesday that net income jumped 11 percent in the fourth quarter on Tuesday, CEO Jim Skinner said his company can perform well in any economy.
But Skinner also noted that the struggling global economy, volatile costs for ingredients and low consumer confidence present a challenge for the world's biggest burger chain.
McDonald's, which serves as a bellwether for the fast-food industry, has done well throughout the recession and its aftermath with a two-pronged strategy. It's continued to attract a base of cash-strapped customers by keeping prices low, while also luring in new customers with offerings like smoothies, lattes, and remodeled restaurants.
In the fourth quarter, McDonald's net income of $1.38 billion translated to $1.33 per share, beating the $1.29 predicted by analysts polled by FactSet. Revenue jumped 10 percent to $6.82 billion, slightly above expectations of $6.81 billion.
But the profit margin fell slightly at company-operated stores. The company blamed higher commodities costs, as well as rising costs for rent and labor in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Its effective tax rate for the year increased to 31.3 percent from 29.3 percent, which the company indicated was partly from higher taxes in Europe.
On the news, McDonald's shares were down 2.2 percent to $98.75 Tuesday.
Foreign currency exchange rates, which helped in previous quarters, did not boost this quarter's results. Such rates were neutral during the quarter as the dollar strengthened. When the dollar is weak, revenue that McDonald's makes overseas translates into more dollars in the U.S.
Higher costs for ingredients also continue to be an issue, even though costs for some ingredients, like wheat and corn, have leveled off. McDonald's said it expects costs for most of its commodities in the U.S. to increase 4.5 to 5.5 percent in 2012, in line with 2011's 4.9 percent increase. Last year, McDonald's raised menu prices three times, for a total price increase of about 3 percent, in March, May and November.
Chief financial officer Pete Bensen said the company would continue to "strategically take increases to offset some but not all of our higher costs."
Bensen added that McDonald's would take "a balanced approach to growing traffic and average check" as it mulled further price increases. The company doesn't want to raise prices too much and risk driving away customers or causing them to trade down to cheaper items.
Like many companies, McDonald's is looking for revenue growth in emerging markets like China and Africa, where fast-growing populations present both high risk and high potential rates of return. Skinner said McDonald's plans to open a net of 900 new restaurants in the coming year, concentrated in Asia, the Middle East and Africa, to add to the current roster of 33,500-plus locations around the world.
About 22 percent of McDonald's revenue comes from Asia Pacific, Africa and the Middle East, up from 14 percent five years ago. That region grew revenue 13 percent over the year, faster than any other.

A Final New York Moment With Ed Koch
A dispatch from Hizzoner's funeral
Let's start with one axiomatic truth: The only truly qualified person to eulogize Ed Koch is Ed Koch.
Despite this, thousands of New Yorkers packed the pews at Manhattan's Temple Emanu-El yesterday and stood within its soaring Neo-Romanesque walls–the 5th Avenue analog of the Basilica di San Petronio–to hear others try. And, of course, to spend one final New York moment with the Hizzoner.
"We began talking about his death in the 80s and his plans for it," former Koch chief of staff Diane Coffey told the crowd. "Who else plans every detail of a burial?"
The details included an honor guard, a flyover of NYPD helicopters, and a parade of New York mayors, senators, and governors–past, present, and future–hemmed into the temple by the city's kith and kin, a mix of business suits, police caps, blue jeans, winter coats, white faces, black faces, and everything in between.
New Yorkers watched as the casket, draped in the tricolore city flag, was carried in, past the rolling cameras, on the shoulders of six of New York's finest. Winter sunlight pierced through the ridges of the temple's stained glass windows (you knew Koch had planned this too) and the coffin was set. The flag was removed, leaving an oak box, stubbornly plain except for the large Star of David–an emblem for the Hizzoner himself.
The prayers began, the family spoke, and the politicians read their lines with conviction, led by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a fellow three-termer, who, for a rare moment was able to make English sound like his first language.
"A Polish Jew in an Episcopal graveyard in a largely Dominican neighborhood. What could be more New York, or even more Ed Koch?"
Reading from an iPad, Bloomberg called Koch New York's Moses "but with less hair" and added that Koch had "convinced us we could be great again." Where liveliness and ebullience were required for Bloomberg to meet the moment, former President Bill Clinton–who flew home early from Japan–knew that he owed the day a small dose of gravitas and told of the many letters he received from Koch over the years.
"We miss you so much," Clinton said in his lean-in voice. "Because we all know we are doing a lot better because you lived and served."
Then there was Ido Aharoni, the Israeli consul general, would have made Koch blush as he relayed the most elusive of honorific an Israeli can bestow upon a man of the Diaspora, calling Koch "one of us." He spoke about the lifelong friendship between Koch and Jerusalem Mayor Teddy Kollek, whom Koch referred to as "the mayor of all mayors"–quite a sobriquet considering the source.
Aharoni also explained that Koch had "literally bled for the Jewish state," after being struck with a rock thrown by a Palestinian protestor during one of his many visits to Israel. (Koch had quipped to his Israeli counterparts that the rock had been aimed at them.)
But speeches from coworkers and staff members did the best at capturing Koch at his headstrong best. During a video for Mayor Bloomberg's State of the City, Koch was famously filmed on the Queensboro Bridge–which had been renamed the Ed Koch Queensboro Bridge–shouting "Welcome to my bridge!" to the rush of oncoming traffic.
One coworker told of how Koch, for 20 minutes after the filming had concluded, simply kept waving and shouting at the passing cars. Koch also frequently made known his demand that there never be any tolls on the Ed Koch Queensboro Bridge. Apparently Koch believed that the bridge was actually his. He wanted to make sure everyone else thought so too.
Just when you thought nothing could top the tributes, there was still a New York ending to be had. The prayers all said, the six svelte policemen reconvened to carry out the casket and load it for the short journey to Koch's resting place, the Trinity Church Cemetery, the last legal place a body can still be buried in Manhattan. As Coffey noted, it was chosen partially because of its easy subway accessibility. Even in the afterlife, Ed Koch expects your attention.
As the men lifted the coffin, Temple Emanu-El's 10,000 pipe organ–one of the largest, if not the largest organ to ever be built–began softly playing out a tune immediately familiar to everyone there: Frank Sinatra's "New York, New York."
It was hammy perfection, the mourners chuckled and sighed. By the time the coffin was halfway down the grand aisle, the song was blasting and the crowd had broken out into loud applause. Out went Koch on the highest of notes.

5.0 out of 5 stars "This book has changed my life",
Keith Pratt (Mississauga, On, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America (Hardcover)
Never before have I been so moved by an author and her work, to find myself compelled to the point of obligation, to post this review. My very first. Many authors have written fine observations, some from first hand experience, such as Ayaan Hirsi Ali and her book "The Caged Virgin". Ms. Gabriel, an Arab Christian, will take you through her life as a little girl, growing up in South Lebanon, then thrust you suddenly into the true horrors, of what we all know happened during that time. If you are a parent, read what this child endured. If you are a compassionate soul, you will be moved to tears. If the sound of your child, screaming in distress for your help, rips your heart out, then find out why this happened to this little girl, and thousands more like her. Ms. Gabriel reminds us all, of what we should already know, but refuse to acknowledge. As of this reading, I know of no other author, who qualifies more to set us straight on this very simple question, who is the victim, and who is the aggressor? This strong, courageous women has survived what we cannot possibly imagine, and is now sharing her truth, to help us find ours. Regardless of your politics, we all owe her our respect. Please read her book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Diary and Dossier on Muslim Extremism,
Gaboora "Honest Reviews Help Sincere Seekers" (Red Deer Alberta Canada) - See all my reviews
I am the same age as Brigitte Gabriel. I remember being baffled at the war in Beirut during the '70's when I was a kid. It is no wonder that I was to remain puzzled for years about a conflict that was featured nightly on the news. The news was not as honestly covered on my three channels as it is in this book. While I sat on the couch trying to fathom the spin that was being put on the war, Brigitte Gabriel was living through the war that she would eventually spin out the truth of for my benefit. The trouble in Beirut, I now learn, was caused by the influx of Muslims into Lebanon who were bent on waging 'holy war' against the professing Christian populace there (pp. 35, 125.) "Lebanon was the first country to fall to Islam in modern times" (p. 124.) Lebanese Christians, according to what the author was taught and which she does not question, are of Phoenician descent. They are of Aramaic origin, meaning Canaanite, not Arabic (p. 10.) The majority of these are Maronite, as is the author (p. 11.) The Maronite religion is a Catholic sect whose focus is ritualistic and moralistic rather than theological (pp. 15, 114.) It seems a religion that one is born into, not 'born again' into.
Brigitte Gabriel grew up with a strong sense of purpose. This was due to her surviving the war in Lebanon as an only child born to aging parents in a culture that looks upon the birth of a girl with disdain. By adulthood, having lived like a rat in a bomb shelter for seven years, she emerged a determined woman destined to effect some change for the good. An act of courage got her her first job (p. 95.) An act of kindness led to her second job (p. 99.) Chance took care to hand her the third one (p. 104.) It was thus that this woman came out of obscurity all of a sudden as a young reporter of world news.
Where does the courage come from to walk right up to a general to ask for a job? It comes from having practiced courage before. Asking a general for a job is not that daunting for a girl who had to crawl through ditches to avoid bombs on the way to school. "Come shells or high water in the shelter, we were going to continue our education" (p. 55.) Where did her kindness come from? It came from the example of her parents: her mother taking care to make the weeds taste good that they had to eat (p. 45), and her father scavenging wire from blown up telephone poles to provide his daughter with working material for crafts (p. 70.)
When it became apparent that English language skills were necessary to her improvement in the world, Brigitte taught herself English by studying television programs that she accessed from the bomb shelter (p. 62.) Shows like Dallas and The Love Boat are not completely without merit, then, to my surprise. Brigitte Gabriel is all character. Too bashful to say that she hadn't eaten in five days (p. 81.) Entering the war zone on a regular basis to help her parents who were stuck there (p. 104.) Ensuring to bury them, not in backward, racist Lebanon, but in enlightened, respectful Israel in order to 'honor them and their legacy' (pp. 122, 123.) I marveled at how this woman I saw on youtube could be so articulate, correct, confident, and fiery in the face of any opponent. Now I understand. She had cultivated her character and mind before coming on the scene. She is not average. It is understandable that a woman escaping a culture that views girls as having nothing to offer but virginity would disparage her own chastity (pp. 94, 194.) In the world that nearly swallowed her up, Muslim men rape girls in order to convince them to become bombing 'martyrs' for the recovery of their honor (p. 197.) In consideration of the evil that surrounded and oppressed her, it is easy to forgive this woman her faults.
Before Beirut was overrun and ruined by the jihadists in the '70's, it was one of the more fashionable, advanced cities of the world (pp. 13, 14.) The reason why these Muslims went about massacring Christians in Lebanon decades ago is the same reason why their descendants carried out the attacks of 9/11: 'because they hate' (p. 33.) They hate the Western way of life, democracy, freedom, Christians, Jews, infidels—everything that, and everyone who, does not conform to their interpretation of the Koran (p. 145.) This hatred is more widespread among Muslims than most people are willing to admit or even consider. Case in point: after being tenderly treated by Israeli doctors and nurses, a Muslim woman has nothing to say to them except, "I hate you all. I wish you were all dead" (p. 80.) We saw the same spirit all around the Arab world on 9/11, dancing and celebrating to the mass murder of innocent 'infidels.' 'Because they hate' is the reason for the 'holy war' we are in. If you ask me, the reason why certain journalists cover war in an unfair pro-Palestinian fashion (p. 85) is the same: because they hate. These mainstream journalists blow into a war zone looking for a shot that will toe 'the network editorial policy line' (p. 119.) But why do they choose to toe that line by portraying the instigating Palestinians as victims? Because of love of money, career, and fame; but at bottom, it is because they hate. That is my, not necessarily Gabriel's, opinion.
Since the Koran commands its faithful to 'kill the infidels,' the Muslims who flew planes into buildings on 9/11 are the faithful Muslims (pp. 202, 203.) The Muslim 'fanatics' are the 'devout followers of Muhammad' (p. 205.) I don't agree that a large percentage of Muslim Americans unwilling to back America's war to protect Kuwait from Saddam Hussein proves anything though (p. 207), for a war could be opposed on many grounds by many voters. But because of what the Koran commands, I agree that every level of the Muslim community at home should be profiled (pp. 214, 215.) Just as Arabs 'envied and despised' Lebanon when it was free (p. 13), they envy and despise the free nations that they emigrate to. They are determined to cling to savage, primitive rituals (pp. 194, 195) and to import them. Their 'honor killings' now happen in North America.
The Arab culture, even that one in Lebanon before the war which included Christians and Muslims living together in some sort of peace, exists under a pall of ignorance and misinformation (p. 88.) Arabs are fed hatred for Jews from birth (p. 105.) Without a free press (p. 106) they grow up believing outrageous, bizarre lies about those they have been tutored to hate (pp. 171, 191.) Example: "For ritual purposes, Jews use the blood of Muslim (and Christian) children in Passover matzoh and Purim pastries" (p. 170.) An uneducated person will believe a tale like that. How backward is the Arab world? It claimed a total of three technological patents in 1998 as compared to the 779 that were claimed by the little Republic of Korea (p. 187.)
The most striking differences between civilized people and the Arab culture come from the author's experiences with both. She was taught to hate Jews while a child in Lebanon (p. 15.) As she began to circulate in Israel more and more, it dawned upon her that that people had been misrepresented. She observed that, unlike Arab men, Israeli men respected women (pp. 82, 98, 99.) In her six years living in Jerusalem, Brigitte often observed adults reading books, but not once did she see this done by a Muslim man (p. 103.) She saw that Israel was generous with health care services (unlike the Lebanese driver who had taken a fee even though the ambulance that he drove was a gift from Israel, pp. 61, 76.) She saw Israelis providing medical care even to 'Palestinian and Muslim gunmen' (p. 77.) An Arab is safe in a Jewish hospital. You can't say, though, that a Jew is safe in an Arab hospital. A Jew would never make it to an Arab hospital. Arabs can live safely in Israel; Israelis are targets when living among Arabs. I say, if you don't love Israel after reading this book, you must be an anti-Semite who deserves to live among the Muslims under a mullah.
Israel is rational about the threat she continually faces. But in America, mainstream media and the politically correct politicians that they serve stand in the way of recognizing and opposing the very same jihad. Terrorist cells are scattered all across the United States, from Boston to San Francisco and from Boca Raton to Detroit (p. 134.) Mosques are seedbeds for terrorists (p. 146.) Muslim charities are connected to terrorist groups (pp. 132, 136-139.) If CAIR is not terrorist-related, why did it demand the removal of a billboard calling bin Laden 'the sworn enemy'? (p. 140.) The deduction could not be more perceptible. Addressing grievances is ridiculous when the underlying grievances are freedom of religion, the democratic process, and the non-Muslim right to life (pp. xiii, 22, 214.) There are some reasons for soft-peddling the Islamic threat. (1) Reporting honestly could jeopardize the lives of journalists in hot zones (p. 108.) (2) Leading universities like MIT, Cornell, Harvard, Berkeley, Princeton, Columbia, and UCLA benefit from millions of 'Saudi petrodollars' (pp. 161-168.) Some, maybe all of that money, by the way, comes from the most militant wing of Islam: the Wahhabis (p. 161.) Canada's national newscaster, the CBC, is as soft on Islamic terrorists as any group or agency that I've ever heard conversing on the subject. Its ideological heroes are the professors of such universities below the border. Thanks to Brigitte Gabriel, the reason why CBC leftists go easy on the Muslim extremism that would crush it if it could has come into view. Falling in line with their southern gurus who are beholden to Islam is not the whole answer. But it is certainly a partial one. CBC Radio hosts will not judge their ideological masters. These masters will not judge the religion of the country that their grubby gratuities come from. But "it is by not judging others that you end up with evil people like bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, and suicide bombers" (p. 186.) Brigitte Gabriel goes so far as to say that the mainstream media's handling of Islamic terrorism is treasonable, which implicates the political personnel that the media go to bat for (pp. 219, 220.) Multiculturalism means 'multi-anythingism' (p. 216.) It is that indiscriminate allegiance to anything but the truth that led a CBC host to vocalize his hope that the terrorist attack in Ottawa in October 2014 would serve to promote unity and tolerance. Translation: more politically correct blindness in the face of Muslims no matter what their stripe. That is what the practice of multiculturalism looks like. And this is how you apply a good book that you've just read. What Brigitte says in Because They Hate may be substantiated just by turning the radio on for a few minutes.
It should already be plain that even the moderate Muslims take a hit in this book. But that, for good reason. Though moderate Muslims are intimidated by their violent brethren, yet they should protest, especially in the West where they are just as protected as the rest of us who do speak up (p. 155.) Not all of them can claim to have close ties to persons overseas whose lives would be hazarded for their speaking out. Moderate Muslims won't address the Koran's teachings that call for 'the killing of infidels' (p. 157.) Almost without exception they won't join a rally condemning terrorism, and are even defensive about being asked to participate in one (pp. 211, 212.) Their balky silence begs us to ask a legitimate question. "Are the majority of Muslims living in America today who practice Islam loyal to the United States or loyal to its enemy?" (pp. 206, 207.) When the moderates do speak up, it is to argue that someone like this author is 'making Muslims look bad' (p. xix.) There is a viral youtube video showing this. And I just ear-witnessed this claim for myself. During the Cross Country Check-up program about the recent attack on the soldier in Ottawa, a call was received from a Muslim woman. What input did she offer? She wanted the other callers to focus on other details than the salient fact that the terrorist had become a convert to Islam before executing his dirty deed. That was her chief, if not sole, reason for calling in to the show.
September 11th could be "the beginning of the end of the American civilization" (p. 135.) This reminds me of what the towers coming down suggested to me: the symbol of the imminent disintegration of the USA as the superpower of the world. Because of what she witnessed and lived through in Lebanon, the dire possibility of America as we know it coming to an end struck this woman the moment she saw the world trade center implode (p. 2.) What happened in Lebanon is eerily similar to what we may now observe in America. Lebanon was multicultural and diverse (p. 13.) Intolerant Islam gained strength there by steady degrees. Its border was open (p. 14.) Palestinian refugees poured in (p. 17.) The enemy exploited race issues and old rivalries (p. 18.) People pretended that tension caused by Muslims was imaginary (p. 19.) Terrorists shouted 'Allahu Akbar' before killing the infidels (p. 24.) The enemy ended up targeting its leftist allies (p. 20.) The American leftists are not spared for their support of Islam, for terrorists kill en masse. They were not spared on 9/11. Lebanon and America: "Different generation, different nationality, different continent, twenty-five years apart. Same enemy: radical Islam" (p. 33.) Moreover, 'Islamic riots' are common in Europe. "The U.S. is…not far behind" (p. 152.) Jesus told those who were having trouble believing on him to believe the works that he did. What the author says on page 221 reminds me somewhat of this. If you don't know whom to believe, believe the ones who say they want to kill and who then follow through. Who the enemy is must be known (p. 218.) With that in mind, page 200 should be read as page one, and over and over again by those who are in denial. It's the most important and convincing page of the whole book. Obedience to what is said there could change the course of this world war with terrorists that we are engaged in. Because They Hate should be one of the premier training manuals for every agency entrusted with protecting the nation.
The object of Because They Hate is to show, by experience, history, and facts, that Islamic fundamentalism will overwhelm America just like it overtook Lebanon unless American citizens wake up and act decisively against it (pp. xiv, 23, 36.) Islam 'is awakening from centuries of slumber to reignite its wrath against the infidel' in an effort to dominate the world (p. 110.) Islam's initial spread was done by the sword (p. 151.) And it is spreading like that again. "In the Muslim world, extreme is mainstream" (p. xiii.) Whatever measures are taken against 'Islamo-fascism,' they must be gotten through in a democratic system where 'dissent and protest' will hinder an ability to win (p. 112.) Civilized people have obstacles to surmount that barbarians need take no thought of. Another formidable obstacle for America to get past is the UN, which has a history of favoring terrorist groups (pp. 54, 59, 71, 181, 182.) Brigitte Gabriel finishes her book with a list of measures that the average citizen can engage in. Monitoring college/university lectures (p. 230) may be best one. Spreading the word about what students are being taught has stopped radical professors before.
There are some faults committed that one could mention. The name of God is given out in exclamatory fashion a couple of times (pp. 52, 65.) I always note this because taking God's name in vain is the great sin that everyone allows to pass without notice. Someone should take notice. I volunteer to be the policeman on that. Furthermore, that sin tells us something about the religion of the one who commits it, especially when it is done in writing, for in writing one must even pause and meditate on the fault that is being committed. She gives a nod to wind energy, which I do not like (p. 227.) The style mounts up above average just rarely (pp. 74, 75, 154.) But the spirit of this book is such that style is an unnecessary bauble. Her brand of dogmatism regarding the menace of our time (global jihad) is well backed up, and well gotten on its way, too, by a biographical preliminary that drifts off at about half way through.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arresting autobiography and a warning to the West,
Peter Uys "Toypom" (Sandton) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America (Hardcover)
This disturbing book is similar in structure to Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Now They Call Me Infidel by Nonie Darwish, being part autobiography and part warning to the West. The autobiographical section deals with the author's childhood in Lebanon which was happy and idyllic until the war broke out in 1975. Her family experienced seven years of hell as the political war soon became a religious war against Christians waged by the PLO and Lebanese radical Islamists.
It became a nightmare of murder, atrocity and destruction. She also witnessed at first hand how the terrorists manipulate the media, for example by launching missiles from Christian towns then blaming Israel for the retaliation that followed. They played the victim card very well, exploiting the clueless or complicit mass media at every turn. A good analysis of this phenomenon is available in The Other War by Stephanie Gutmann. When the Israelis invaded in 1982, the family finally managed to escape the horror by finding refuge in Israel. There they experienced kindness and compassion; she eventually became a journalist, married an American and moved to the USA.
The second part examines the history of the global jihad and how its hydra heads are sprouting in the West. The author considers Lebanon the early testing ground for the global ambitions of the Jihadis. In this section she delves into the Koran and compares the Western with the Islamist concepts of, among others: truth, life and human dignity. Pointing out the major differences, she shows how the radicals are using Western values like tolerance, the rule of law and free speech against the West. What happened in Lebanon is starting to happen in Europe and the USA while the demonization of Israel and the USA is getting worse in the mass media of the Islamic world. For gruesome examples of this, please see Peace: The Arabian Caricature Of Anti-Semitic Imagery by Arieh Stav.
Ignorance and political correctness are contributing to the escalating danger and the fifth column in our midst are those self-loathing westerners - mostly tenured termites in academia - who blame the democracies and talk piously of the "legitimate" grievances of the terrorists. The author says we must not appease but face facts: their grievances include our freedom of speech and religion, the democratic process, rule of law and the gender equality in our societies. She also claims that moderate Muslim organizations in the USA are not as moderate as they pretend. A very important point Gabriel makes is that although most Muslims are peaceful, Islam itself is not a moderate religion. Islamic Imperialism by Efraim Karsh and The Truth About Muhammad by Robert Spencer explore the historical facts in more detail.
The book concludes with recommendations for policymakers in the West, such as the banning of hate education where it is occurring now, stricter border and immigration controls, security profiling of radical organizations and a serious effort to find alternative energy sources. Other warnings to the West include The Force Of Reason by Oriana Fallaci, Londonistan by Melanie Phillips, Unholy Alliance by David Horowitz, Menace In Europe by Claire Berlinski and While Europe Slept by Bruce Bawer. On account of her first hand experience, Brigitte Gabriel's book is a must-read for all those who care about the future of our civilization.

5.0 out of 5 stars Know Your Enemy!,
This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about his/her country. Do you want to live under Sharia law that chops the right hand and left foot off anyone who steals? That gives a raped victim to her rapist as his wife, if he pays a fine to the family? Do you want to live in a country where "dress police" beat anyone who shows some hair or a bare ankle?
This is the way it will be if Hamas, ISIS, the PLO, Hezbola and all the other Islamic terrorists get their way. They are determined to convert or destroy every infidel (read non-Muslim) in the world and create an Islamic Caliphate worldwide. By the year 2050, they just might accomplish that evil goal here in North America. Do you want your great grandchild ruled by such an evil entity? Read the book and find out for yourself what they are up to and how to stop them!! Knowledge brings power!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read,
This book is a real eye opener for those wanting to better understand some reasons for the unrest in the Middle East, and elsewhere.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, Well Written,
This is a first hand account of a Lebanese girl who survived Islamic terror, literally living in a small underground cellar for 7 years. It is a story of courage and of the struggle to survive during some very
difficult times. This book offers fact filled insight into the mindset of the followers of Islam. Certainly a very pertinent book for these times. Highly recommended.
5.0 out of 5 stars Several book and DVD reviews,
What not to love these books and DVDs? I love them that is why I ordered them. On the other hand amazon.ca had a great job to deliver them on time as promised - I guess this is really what you want to know. Your service and prices are good, this is why I keep coming back to amazon.ca.
Thanks! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Book series can foster a child's lifelong love of reading
Learning to read is the first step. Loving to read is the next. For so many students, the latter is the more difficult of the two.
Once a student finds a topic or storyline that sparks an interest, reading for hours ceases to be difficult. For many students, the key is finding a series of books that interests them. With a series, the reading doesn't have to stop once one book is read.
A series of books will typically share genres, settings and characters. Sometimes storylines will carry over from one book to the next. However, timelines are not always chronological according to when the books are published. Many times readers will enjoy several of the books in the series if they're interested in one of them.
Many teachers will agree that finding a book series will encourage an interest in reading. Once that interest in a certain genre is discovered, a similar book series or author can usually be found.
There are some simple ways to help children select a book that is just right. Make sure they are interested in the story. Make sure they can read and figure out almost all the words. Also, make sure they understand the story and can tell you what it is about. Listen to them read. They should be able to read smoothly; if they're stumbling over words, they will not be able to focus on reading for understanding.
The following 2012 New York City Library Summer Reading list can be used as a guideline to find a book series. Reading and interest level will also determine where your child's interest may be found.

The 57th annual United Way of Union County campaign kicked off Aug. 26, seeking to raise $1 million for the second straight year.
The community-wide fall fundraiser achieved record-level giving of $960,000 last year, a 4 percent increase from 2012. It will take another 4 percent increase for United Way to achieve the milestone mark.
"This is a very aggressive goal and we know that," said Mike Rose, controller at Union Rural Electric, who is serving as the campaign chair this year. "But the needs of Union County continue to grow. Every year when we meet to determine funding to our agencies, we go in knowing that we cannot meet every request. It is very tough to look those people in the eye and tell them we don't have enough to go around. Those of us involved with United Way would love to have a time where we could meet every request for every agency."
Officials stress that the $1 million goal is not just a nice, round number for the organization, but represents a cross between true community needs and perceived fundraising capacity. United Way's Partner Agencies are requesting a 13 percent increase in funding this year.
United Way of Union County serves all of the 43064 zip code — including the portion on the Madison County side. As such, there are several Funded Partners specific to Plain City, including the Plain City Food Pantry, Plain City Free Clinic, Pleasant Valley Seniors, and the Memorial Hospital Meals Site serving out of Bickham Center.
Money given to United Way stays in Union County to support its mission to bring neighbors and resources together to improve lives. A single gift supports six pantries, four senior centers, two shelters, an after-school youth center, a homeless prevention program, disaster relief, prescription medication, hospice care, cancer support, youth activities, and more.
Donors may choose to designate their gift to a specific Impact Area or a program. In that case, dollars are earmarked specifically for those programs.
Giving via payroll deduction at work has been a Union County tradition since 1958. Businesses that have already committed to offer payroll deduction to employees for United Way include Huntington, Jerome Township, John Deere Training Center, Jonathan Alder Schools, Kroger, Liberty National Bank, Loving Care Hospice, Mental Health & Recovery Board, PNC, Richwood Banking Company, Select Sires, Tolles Career & Technical Center and Walmart. Those interested in establishing a United Way campaign in a workplace not listed are encouraged to call United Way at 937-644-8381.
Additional giving opportunities abound. Giving fliers will be mailed to every address in Union County next week. Donors could write a check and mail it to P.O. Box 145, Marysville, OH 43040. Easy online giving is available at www.unitedwayofunioncounty.org.
United Way of Union County has raised more than $18 million for local needs since it was established in 1958.

|EFFICIENT CONVERSION OF VOICE MESSAGES INTO TEXT - A system and method for efficiently transcribing verbal messages transmitted over the Internet (or other network) into text. The verbal messages are initially checked to ensure that they are in a valid format and include a return network address, and if so, are processed either as whole verbal messages or split into segments. These whole verbal messages and segments are processed by an automated speech recognition (ASR) program, which produces automatically recognized text. The automatically recognized text messages or segments are assigned to selected workbenches for manual editing and transcription, producing edited text. The segments of edited text are reassembled to produce whole edited text messages, undergo post processing to correct minor errors and output as an email, an SMS message, a file, or an input to a program. The automatically recognized text and manual edits thereof are returned as feedback to the ASR program to improve its accuracy.

Airhead Airbox, R90S on an R90/6, should it fit?

Why did you buy this? Was it because of the holes in the back?
Or did you just not have one?
I needed an airbox because mine was broken where it attaches at the right transmission stud. I put up an ad looking for a new one and lots of offers came in. My broken one had the holes, but they were drilled by hand. I don't know why i bought it, the price was right and I was use to looking at the holes I guess.
Anyway, I had thoroughly checked this thing out and it looks perfect, not modified in any way. the 2 halves mate well, and as a pair they match the engine and transmission very well, except for this one spot. I can understand variations between castings and such, but this is really way off and doesn't seem like BMW would have left it this way. I am just confused by it.
Could my transmission be something different?

What is Film Studies?
- Film Studies Fact Sheet (pdf)
Think of your favorite film or TV show. What did you like about it? The story? The characters? The action? The overall look? If audiovisual culture means more to you than just entertainment, this may be the right major for you.
Students in UWM's Film Studies program learn about the history, theory and criticism of film and television. We discuss and write about these areas critically; make connections between these media, historical themes and cultural change; analyze the impact of film and television on individuals and society; and compare different media formats.
Film Studies at UWM
UWM's Film Studies program offers a cross-department major and minor that blends courses in Film Studies with classes from English, Art History, Comparative Literature, French, Italian, and Japanese. The program promotes the study of cinema and television in their aesthetic, social, cultural, political and technological contexts and expands students' understanding of cinema and television as essential components of our global culture.
Career Opportunities
Students who go into Film Studies often pursue careers that value strong communication and critical thinking skills. Popular jobs include teaching, writing, festival management and programming, advertising, art direction, graphic design, and production management.
A UWM Film Studies degree also provides excellent preparation for graduate study. In recent years, students have joined prestigious graduate programs in Film Studies, Cinema Studies, Media Studies, or Screen Studies at UCLA, Northwestern University, American University, Boston University and the University of Chicago. We have also placed students in graduate programs in Law, Business, and Education.
Students are encouraged to obtain practical experience while in college. Recent UWM film studies students have completed for-credit internships at Milwaukee Film (the organization that presents the annual Milwaukee Film Festival), The Ford Modeling Agency, Disney Corporation, and The Nielsen Company.
Major Requirements
Thirty-nine credits are required for the major, at least 15 in upper-level courses taken in residence at UWM. The following required courses are all taught by core faculty.
|Course #
|Course Title
|ArtHist/FilmStd 205
|History of Film I: Development of an Art
|English/FilmStd 290
|Introduction to Film Studies
|English/FilmStd 390
|Classical Film Criticism and Theory
|FilmStd 690
|Seminar in Contemporary Film Theory
The remaining courses are electives chosen from a list of approved course on the Film Studies website. Recent course options include: Cult Films, Introduction to Television Studies, Cinema and Digital Culture, Japanese Cinema, Special Effects, Contemporary Women Directors, Horror Cinema, Film Noir, History of Animation, and Rock and Roll Cinema.
In addition to the array of courses offered in Fall and Spring semesters, Film Studies courses are available online during Summer and and UWinteriM sessions.
Undergraduate Minor in Film Studies
The minor in Film Studies (18 credits) is open to all students in any UWM undergraduate degree program and provides students with critical skills and multiple perspectives on historical and contemporary media forms. It promotes the study of fi lm and media in their aesthetic, social, cultural, political and technological contexts and expands students' understanding of media as essential elements of our global cultural environment.
Film Studies in Milwaukee
Wisconsin has a growing reputation as a destination for cinema culture and a long history of valuing independent and art house fi lm. As members of the Film Studies program, students have numerous opportunities to be active participants in this community.
The city is home to the annual Milwaukee Film Festival, which screens more than 250 feature and short films from across the global cinema landscape. In addition, Milwaukee is one of eight cities with a chapter of The Cinema Club, the nation's premier sneak preview fi lm society. Gilberto Blasini and Patrice Petro, two of the Film Studies program core faculty, serve as moderators.
On campus, UWM regularly screens notable domestic and international films and hosts a number of film festivals like the French Film Festival, the Latin American Film Series, the LGBT Film Festival, the Milwaukee Underground Film Festival, and the UWM Student Film and Video Festival.
Digital Arts and Culture Certificate
The Certificate Program in Digital Arts and Culture prepares students to creatively produce digital art and media content, critically analyze work produced by others and theoretically understand cultural interactions between digital technologies and society. Nine Film Studies courses count toward the certificate and it is a popular addition to the Major in Film Studies.

Watch America's Got Talent
America's Got Talent, produced by Simon Cowell, has been billed as the world's largest talent show. Now in its seventh season on NBC, the show continues to provide audiences with the widest variety of acts imaginable. The series premiered in 2006 with politician turned controversial talk show host Jerry Springer hosting. Although there have been some personnel changes across the seven seasons, the show has maintained the original format which features three judges who provide colorful and constructive commentary on acts ranging from ensemble clogging to magic to trained animals. The original three America's Got Talent judges were Sharon Osbourne, David Hasselhoff, and Piers Morgan.
Current host, actor/musician Nick Cannon, joined the show in 2009 at the start of the fourth season. The host's charisma, combined with the entertaining acts and the unique mix of personality provided by the judges continue to draw audiences to NBC each summer. Comedian and game show host Howie Mandel joined the judging panel for the show's fifth season, replacing David Hasselhoff. And comedian/radio talk show host Howard Stern took over the judge's seat previously occupied by Piers Morgan for the start of the seventh season. Sharon Osbourne has remained the one constant throughout the show's history, occupying the middle judge's chair and providing her own kind of gentle criticism to contestants since the first season.
Although the judges continue to offer their opinions after the audition period has ended, it is the TV audience who has the final say as to who wins America's Got Talent. After each week's show, America is able to vote via phone and internet to determine which contestants will remain in the running. And the prize is no small potatoes. The winner of America's Got Talent receives an annuity worth one million dollars and a stint as a head-lining act in Las Vegas.

William Owen Roberts
William Owen Roberts (born 1960) is a Welsh language novelist and writer of plays for radio, television and theatre.
He was born in Bangor, Gwynedd, and studied Welsh Literature and Theatre Studies at the University of Wales from 1978 to 1981.[1]
His writing is characterised by its originality and daring, dealing with subjects and ideas new to Welsh-language literature. For example, his first novel, Bingo!, is a reworking of the diaries of Franz Kafka. His second novel, Y Pla (lit. 'The Plague', translated into English as Pestilence) is perhaps his best known and has been translated into multiple languages including English, Dutch and German.[2]
Unlike many Welsh-language writers, much of his writing deals with areas of history not directly related to Wales, for example, his 2001 novel Paradwys is about the Atlantic slave trade, as is his most recent novel, Petrograd, set during the Russian Revolution, which went on the win the Wales Book of the Year award.[3]
His work has been described as an example of the postmodern tradition.
His novels include:
- Bingo! (1985)
- Y Pla (1987)
- Hunangofiant (1990)
- Paradwys (2001)
- Peenemunde (2004)
- Cymru Fach (2006)
- Petrograd (2008)

Taiwanese filmmaker Chang Jung-chi has gained notice for his documentaries, but he's ready to show the world a different side to his work.
Mr. Chang won best new director at Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards last month for "Touch of the Light," which tells the story of Huang Yu-siang, a blind piano prodigy. The movie is Taiwan's entry for a foreign-language Oscar this year.
But his next project, still in the planning stages, is an entirely fictional thriller about the death of a high-school kid. The director also has his sights set on action movies, the kind made famous by his hero, Jackie Chan.
"I don't define myself at this stage. I'm still experimenting," Mr. Chang said. "Down the road, I would like people to see a versatile me."
Discovered by "In the Mood for Love" director Wong Kar-wai in 2008, Mr. Chang was then offered $1 million by Mr. Wong's Jet Tone Films to make "Touch of the Light," an expansion of a short film of his that screened that year.
