I wanted to post some photos of the pendants in the macramed bracelets/anklets, as a "serving suggestion" on each model page to show how they can be adapted fairly cheaply for summer (the number of wooden beads and length of hemp cord used cost me less than £1.60 altogether, thats about $2-$3). I'm also thinking about writing up a tutorial so others can make this same style. But anyway, on to the matter at hand! I played around with levels and curves and ended up with a clear original version and three different vintage looking versions of two different pendants. Which style do you think would be best for me to use on the model pages? (and for featuring elsewhere... hint hint!

A team of six full-time Orange County district attorney's investigators and one supervising investigator were assigned to the Kelly Thomas case.
District Attorney Tony Rackauckas described the conduct of six Fullerton police officers involved in the fatal beating of the mentally ill transient at a packed news conference earlier this week.
Two of the six officers have been charged in connection with his death and all of the officers remain on paid administrative leave.
The death certificate lists the cause of death for Thomas as asphyxia caused by "mechanical chest compression with blunt cranial-facial injuries sustained during physical altercation with law enforcement."
The district attorney said Thomas died because of the weight of the officers on his chest, which made it impossible to breathe.
Here's a look at the role each of the six played in the death of Thomas, according to the district attorney:
Name: Officer Manuel Ramos
Age: 37
Experience: 10 years
Charges: Second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter
Role: Ramos is accused of launching a lethal assault on Thomas with words that had him fearing for his life on the evening of July 5 at the Fullerton Transportation Center.
According to prosecutors, Ramos at 8:37 p.m. went to investigate reports of a homeless man looking in car windows and pulling on handles of parked cars. Ramos spotted Thomas and ordered him to sit on the curb with his hands on his knees and his legs outstretched. Ramos then stepped away to speak with officer Joseph Wolfe, went back to Thomas and made a deliberate show of pulling on latex gloves.
Ramos is accused of repeatedly instructing Thomas to sit with his hands on his knees and his legs outstretched. Thomas would temporarily comply and then move his hands behind him in order to lean back on them.

After the decimated performance of the Congress-Nationalist Congress (NCP) in the Lok Sabha polls and ahead of the state assembly election, the Congress-NCP run state govt closed down its 44 toll collection centres on Monday, across the state.
Ajit Pawar, the deputy chief minister in the legislature, said that the state govt has decided to scrap the centres that include 34 toll collections on the Public Works Department's (PWD) roads and 10 on the Maharashtra State and Road Development Corporation's roads across the state. "It will put an additional Rs346 cr financial burden over the state exchequer. We will also appeal to the central govt to close the down the toll centres on its national highways so people will get significant relief. The state transport buses are also exempt from paying the toll charges now," said Pawar.
Vinod Tawade, BJP leader, said that the state has taken the decision quite late. "We want all toll centres in state to be closed down and will continue our agitation," he said.
There are a total of 166 toll centre across Maharashtra, out of which 73 are owned by the PWD, 53 by the MSRDC and 40 by the central govt (National Highways).
He said that they will take the all-party leaders delegation to meet the union road and transport ministers Nitin Gadkari and will request him to exempt the state transport buses from paying the toll charges on national highways. "The union should also shut down unnecessary tolls centres which are on national highways. We have done our job, now the central has to do theirs," said Pawar.
The 44 shut down centres are located at Nasik, Amarawati, Nagpur, Jalgaon, Dhule, Aurangabad, Pune, Sangali, Solapur, Satara, and Raigad.
The BJP leaders had earlier said that if they come to power in the state, they will make Maharashtra toll-free. Even MNS chief Raj Thackeray raised the issue and received an overwhelming response from the people.
However, the Congress-NCP run state govt felt that the high toll charges are one of the reasons for its shameful defeats in the Lok Sabha polls. Sources close to NCP leaders told dna that the state govt has decided to initiate corrective measures which can help them to gain the ebbing ground, ahead of the state assembly polls, scheduled in October.

Avoid resume content that makes a recruiter laugh
As an executive recruiter, I have seen literally thousands of resumes over the course of my career.
With all of the free advice available on writing an effective resume, you would think many would be comprehensive, concise and persuasive, and professional in appearance with no grammatical or spelling errors. Most of all, you would think that the content of the resumes that cross my desk (or computer screen) would be relevant to the jobs for which the candidate is applying.
Not always so.
Recently, a resume circulated across our offices that made me laugh, then shudder. The candidate, (whose name has been changed to "Mary" to conceal her identity) had put together a resume that seemed to meet all of the criteria for appearance and content. It described Mary's work experience, education, skills and other credentials. There were no unexplained gaps in employment, and Mary's background perfectly matched the requirements for a mid-level job in finance.
Mary made it through an initial screening and two interviews for a job that appeared to suit her perfectly. In fact, the employer was prepared to make an offer when someone noticed that Mary's personal qualities and interests, listed at the bottom of the resume, were, let's just say, ill chosen.
Describing her work ethic, Mary wrote "works harder and smarter" and "plays well with others." While this wording was enough to raise a few eyebrows, it probably would not have been sufficient to eliminate Mary as a top candidate for the job. But then Mary went on to say that she was a "beer enthusiast" and a "scrapbook queen."

Industry sources quoted by Digitimes claim that HP is going to release its first Android smartphone in the second half of 2013 "at the earliest".
A new report says that an affordable $99 HP Android tablet will be available from Walmart in time for back-to-school sales. Read on for more details!
The HP Slate 7 saw a price drop today of $30, bringing the overall price down to $140. Is this HP trying to be more competitive with other Android tablets, or is the tablet doing badly? That's what we're going to take a look at.
An HP executive told the press that the company is working on a smartphone that will bring a new experience to users, when it eventually launches.
The HP Slate 7 has finally arrived at a very attractive and affordable price point. Curious to know more? Read on to find out!
Previously it was believed that the HP Slate 7 wouldn't arrive in April, and instead would arrive sometime in June. The good news is that the Slate 7 isn't delayed after all, available now for just $170.
The HP Slate 7, the company's first Android tablet, will be launched in the UK on May 1 for £129.
Delayed in the US from April to June, the HP Slate 7 is now available for pre-order on a French retailer's website. Unfortunately, Europe won't be getting earlier, either.
Itching to get your hands on the HP Slate 7 this April? Bad news, it looks like you are going to being waiting a little longer. HP's product page now indicates its $169 tablet won't be arriving until June.

Not entirely a ripoff
Don't know if it makes you feel any better but this idiot was not a ripoff. He's just a plain moron who had a good business and he fucked it up.
I'm saying this because I did see some of his bags and they looked to be good stuff. He started fabricating these manually in a tiny workshop. He did come on to a Romanian Bulletin Board at that time to ask for advice. We've actually seen him design, fabricate and sell his first kit. He's actually a good handyman.
His business picked up, he increased prices (he overcharged you heavily, his entire set used to cost around $800 in the spring) but he got in trouble with the orders he received.
He's just very poorly organised, he says he also has some personal troubles (wife died he says) and it's a total mess. Unfortunately he lives about a day's travel away from me, otherwise I would have met him in person by now. He also screwed up a buddy of mine's trip up north by eventually delivering the bags 5 months late, with no supports. We managed to find somebody to fabricate the bars and that was that, I think he also sent some money back.
Sorry you had to go through this, I think eventually you will be receiving the money. Threaten him that you made friends on the Romanian forum and they're coming for payback. He will eventually cave in, probably with money he received in advance from other people's ruined rides until his business goes truly under.
Cheer up, in case you don't get the money you will eventually get a good set of bags.

Article: Pomalidomide plus low dose dexamethasone is active and well tolerated in bortezomib and lenalidomide refractory multiple myeloma: IFM 2009-02.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The combination of pomalidomide and dexamethasone can be safely administered to Multiple Myeloma (MM) and has significant efficacy although the optimal regimen remains to be determined. MM who progressed after multiple lines of therapy have limited treatment options. We designed a multicenter phase 2 randomized study assessing 2 different dose regimens of pomalidomide and dexamethasone in advanced MM. Treatment response was assessed centrally. Pomalidomide (4 mg) was given orally on days 1 to 21 (arm 21/28) or continuously (arm 28/28) over a 28-day cycle, plus Dexamethasone given weekly. Eighty four patients (43 arm 21/28 and 41 arm 28/28) were randomized. The median number of prior lines was 5. ORR was 35% (arm 21/28) and 34% (arm 28/28), independent of the number of prior lines and level of refractoriness. Median DOR, TTP and PFS was 7.3, 5.4 and 4.6 months, similar across cohorts. At 23 months follow up, median OS was 14.9 months, with 44% of the patients alive at 18 months. Toxicity consisted primarily of myelosuppression, which was manageable. The efficacy and safety data presented here, along with data from other phase 2 trials, suggest that pomalidomide 4 mg/day on days 21/28 with dexamethasone should be investigated in future trials. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (No. NCT01053949).Blood 01/2013; 121(11). DOI:10.1182/blood-2012-09-452375 · 9.78 Impact Factor
Article: Long-Term Analysis of the IFM 99 Trials for Myeloma: Cytogenetic Abnormalities [t(4;14), del(17p), 1q gains] Play a Major Role in Defining Long-Term Survival[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In multiple myeloma, many prognostic parameters have been proposed. However, all of these predict shorter survival. To identify patients with a longer life expectancy, we updated the data of patients treated in the IFM (Intergroupe Francophone du Myelome) 99-02 and 99-04 trials. A series of 520 patients was analyzed. Median follow-up was 90.5 months. To perform a comprehensive analysis of the major prognostic factors, we reanalyzed all patients for 1q gains [in addition to updating del(13), t(4;14), and del(17p) analyses]. It was possible to identify a subgroup of patients (representing 20% of total patients) with an 8-year survival of 75%. These patients were defined by the absence of t(4;14), del(17p), and 1q gain and β(2)-microglobulin less than 5.5 mg/L. We propose that all patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma be evaluated for these three chromosomal changes, not only to define high-risk patients but also to identify those with a longer life expectancy.Journal of Clinical Oncology 04/2012; 30(16):1949-52.

Article: Bortezomib plus dexamethasone versus reduced-dose bortezomib, thalidomide plus dexamethasone as induction treatment before autologous stem cell transplantation in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The Intergroupe Francophone du Myelome conducted a randomized trial to compare bortezomib-dexamethasone (VD) as induction before high-dose therapy (HDT) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) to a combination consisting of reduced doses of bortezomib and thalidomide plus dexamethasone (vtD) in patients with multiple myeloma. Overall, a total of 199 patients were centrally randomly assigned to receive VD or vtD. After 4 cycles, the complete response (CR) rate was the same in both groups (13% in the vtD arm, 12% in the VD arm, P = .74). However, the CR plus very good partial response (VGPR) rate was significantly higher in the vtD arm (49% vs 36%, P = .05). After ASCT, the CR plus VGPR rate was significantly higher in the vtD arm (74% vs 58%, P = .02). The reduced doses of bortezomib and thalidomide translated into a reduced incidence of peripheral neuropathy (PN): grade ≥ 2 PN were reported in 34% in the VD arm versus 14% in the vtD arm (P = .001). vtD, including reduced doses of bortezomib and thalidomide, yields higher VGPR rates compared with VD and can be considered a new effective triplet combination before HDT/ASCT.Blood 08/2011; 118(22):5752-8; quiz 5982.

ABSTRACT: Deletion of the 17p13 chromosomal region [del(17p)] is associated with a poor outcome in multiple myeloma. Most of the studies have targeted the TP53 gene for deletion analyses, although no study showed that this gene is the deletion target. In order to address this issue, we sequenced the TP53 gene in 92 patients with multiple myeloma at diagnosis, 54 with a del(17p) and 38 lacking del(17p). At least one mutation was found in 20 patients, all of them presenting a del(17p). The analysis of the mutation location showed that virtually all of them occurred in highly conserved domains involved in the DNA-protein interactions. In conclusion, we showed that 37% of the myeloma patients with del(17p) present a TP53 mutation versus 0% in patients lacking the del(17p). The prognostic significance of these mutations remains to be evaluated.Haematologica 11/2010; 95(11):1973-6. DOI:10.3324/haematol.2010.023697 · 5.87 Impact Factor
Article: Heterogeneity of t(4;14) in multiple myeloma. Long-term follow-up of 100 cases treated with tandem transplantation in IFM99 trials[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: One hundred de novo multiple myeloma patients with t(4;14) treated with double intensive therapy according to IFM99 protocols were retrospectively analyzed. The median overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were 41.4 and 21 months, respectively, as compared to 65 and 37 for patients included in the IFM99 trials without t(4;14) (P<10(-7)). We identified a subgroup of patients presenting at diagnosis with both low beta(2)-microglobulin <4 mg/l and high hemoglobin (Hb) >/=10 g/l (46% of the cases) with a median OS of 54.6 months and a median EFS of 26 months, respectively, which benefits from high-dose therapy (HDT); conversely patients with one or both adverse prognostic factor (high beta(2)-microglobulin and/or low Hb) had a poor outcome. The achievement of either complete response or very good partial response after HDT was also a powerful independent prognostic factor for both OS and EFS.Leukemia 10/2007; 21(9):2020-4.

The Mirror says Manucho, who signed a three-year deal with United in January after impressing for Angola at the African Nations Cup, has spent the past five months on loan at Panathinaikos. But United fear that the 25-year-old may not get a work permit for the Premier League so are looking to loan him out again.
Deportivo, who have qualified for the UEFA Cup, told United he will be a regular.
Club president Augusto Cesar Lendoiro said: "It would be very good for his development."

The Road to War
Brother Ash
Brother Ash is a devout follower of Pelor but left the Church of Light after the Witchcross incident, or purification. Feeling that the destruction of the Keepers of Eth, a local druidic group, was an unwarranted and overly severe reaction to the situation. He also subsequently stood against the church and its local leader Archbishop Skern, for their mistreatment of locals who were sympathetic to the Keepers of Eth. Called before the Archbishop from his post at the Monastery of the Purifying Flame, and was asked to leave the order.
That night as he lay awake in his bed unable to sleep the wall of his room suddenly exploded in a brilliant flash of light. A band of local adventurers in the room adjacent to his had accidentally set of a magical device of great power, an Arcane Engine. After helping to stop the raw destructive power of the engine, he spent the night with these men and decided to travel with them for a time working as a mercenary, until Pelor reveals to him what his destiny is to be.
While in the city of Overlook Brother Ash traveled through an area of town know as the Divine Knot. To his amazement, he found that the temple of Pelor was not only located in the filthiest and immoral section of the city, but that it had been abandoned and boarded up. After chasing away several street walkers who were working from the great temples steps, he entered the temple through a side entrance. He found the temple to harbor several creatures, two imps and a gargoyle.
Currently Brother Ash is contemplating a plan to restore the temple and to find out what happened to the priests who once attended the temple.

Monogrammed Coco Border Half-Round Door Mat 15 17
Perfect This was just what I was looking for. The door mat is very thick. Monogram is very nice, love the size and shape ( half-moon). March 31, 2015
Second try--time will tell This is the 2nd Coco Border Half-Round Door Mat I've purchased. After two years of use in an outdoor area that is not totally exposed to the elements, the first one frayed at the rounded end. I've decided to try again, however this newly purchased mat looks as though it may do the same thing. I'm going to give it a shot, hoping it will last longer than two years. February 27, 2015
Excellent Quality I am totally satisfied with this purchase. The mat was larger than expected and it is very thick. The monogram is great. I am highly satisfied with my purchase. It seems to be of excellent quality so it should last. January 29, 2015
Coco mats excellent quality, shipped here in a large box so they were not rolled up tight. very pleased December 29, 2014
Impressive entry! This mat is plush and so handsome. I've ordered this mat as a house warming gift and have had 2 for my own home! December 23, 2014
Disappointed The rug is lovely and just what I expected - almost. It is the right width but is NOT the shape I ordered. I ordered the half-round rug and got the full rectangular rug. I almost sent it back but since it was monogrammed and I could use it I decided to just keep it. It is very nice but really doesn't fit the space to which it is allocated. March 14, 2014
One perfect door mat Our costal home in Brunswick county faces southwest and is in full sun most of the day. We have worn through a number of mats over the years and have even had what we thought was a high quality mat turn soft and loose shape. After looking at a number of options, we found this coco fiber mat at Grandinroad. They were very helpful and answered all of our questions without delay. Once the mat arrived we knew it was the right choice and it size was a perfect fit to protect the entrance. It looks great, the quality is apparent and it exceeded our expectations. March 3, 2014
Beautiful Door Mat! Just placed this beautiful door mat at my front door and it's excellent! The coir is very think, and the black insets are well-placed and clear. Would recommend using it in a covered area (which mine will be), but very pleased with the purchase! August 19, 2013

With the Winter 2015 Release, Informatica Cloud Advances Real Time and Batch Integration for Citizen Integrators Everywhere
The first of these is in the area of connectivity and brings a whole new set of features and capabilities to those who use our platform to connect with Salesforce, Amazon Redshift, NetSuite and SAP.
Starting with Amazon, the Winter 2015 release leverages the new Redshift Unload Command, giving any user the ability to securely perform bulk queries, and quickly scan and place multiple columns of data in the intended target, without the need for ODBC or JDBC connectors. We are also ensuring the data is encrypted at rest on the S3 bucket while loading data into Redshift tables; this provides an additional layer of security around your data.
For SAP, we've added the ability to balance the load across all applications servers. With the new enhancement, we use a Type B connection to route our integration workflows through a SAP messaging server, which then connects with any available SAP application server. Now if an application server goes down, your integration workflows won't go down with it. Instead, you'll automatically be connected to the next available application server.
Additionally, we've expanded the capability of our SAP connector by adding support for ECC5. While our connector came out of the box with ECC6, ECC5 is still used by a number of our enterprise customers. The expanded support now provides them with the full coverage they and many other larger companies need.
Finally, for Salesforce, we're updating to the newest versions of their APIs (Version 31) to ensure you have access to the latest features and capabilities. The upgrades are part of an aggressive roadmap strategy, which places updates of connectors to the latest APIs on our development schedule the instant they are announced.
The second major platform enhancement for the Winter 2015 release has to do with our Cloud Mapping Designer and is sure to please those familiar with PowerCenter. With the new release, PowerCenter users can perform secure hybrid data transformations – and sharpen their cloud data warehousing and data analytic skills – through a familiar mapping and design environment and interface.
Specifically, the new enhancement enables you to take a mapplet you've built in PowerCenter and bring it directly into the Cloud Mapping Designer, without any additional steps or manipulations. With the PowerCenter mapplets, you can perform multi-group transformations on objects, such as BAPIs. When you access the Mapplet via the Cloud Mapping Designer, the groupings are retained, enabling you to quickly visualize what you need, and navigate and map the fields.
Additional productivity enhancements to the Cloud Mapping Designer extend the lookup and sorting capabilities and give you the ability to upload or delete data automatically based on specific conditions you establish for each target. And with the new feature supporting fully parameterized, unconnected lookups, you'll have increased flexibility in runtime to do your configurations.
The third and final major Winter release enhancement is to our Real Time capability. Most notable is the addition of three new features that improve the usability and functionality of the Process Designer.
The first of these is a new "Wait" step type. This new feature applies to both processes and guides and enables the user to add a time-based condition to an action within a service or process call step, and indicate how long to wait for a response before performing an action.
When used in combination with the Boundary timer event variation, the Wait step can be added to a service call step or sub-process step to interrupt the process or enable it to continue.
The second is a new select feature in the Process Designer which lets users create their own service connectors. Now when a user is presented with multiple process objects created when the XML or JSON is returned from a service, he or she can select the exact ones to include in the connector.
An additional Generate Process Objects feature automates the creation of objects, thus eliminating the tedious task of replicating hold service responses containing hierarchical XML and JSON data for large structures. These can now be conveniently auto generated when testing a Service Connector, saving integration developers a lot of time.
The final enhancement for the Process Designer makes it simpler to work with XML-based services. The new "Simplified XML" feature for the "Get From" field treats attributes as children, removing the namespaces and making sibling elements into an object list. Now if a user only needs part of the returned XML, they just have to indicate the starting point for the simplified XML.
While those conclude the major enhancements, additional improvements include:
- A JMS Enqueue step is now available to submit an XML or JSON message to a JMS Queue or Topic accessible via the a secure agent.
- Dequeuing (queue and topics) of XML or JSON request payloads is now fully supported.
3 Ways to Simplify SAP Connectivity Protocols
SAP's Jam social platform has generated a great deal of buzz since its release last May – and for good reason. As detailed by Alan Lepofsky in his coverage for ZDNet, the new Jam reboot included the kind of things, such as out-of-the-box integration, workflow templates and simplified developer tools, that make both IT and business users very happy.
However, the complexity of SAP's Business Suite (or ECC as it's called) does not easily lend itself to integration with other applications. The code underlying it is built on a proprietary language called ABAP – a combination of COBOL and Open SQL with some object-oriented features– that requires specialized knowledge and skill not easily found outside of the SAP ecosystem. Up until now, the typical integration project required the involvement of a specialized SAP consultant to develop custom ABAP code or map complex BAPI/IDoc structures as well as a BASIS administrator to transport the ABAP code from development to QA to production. The result was expensive and manually intensive. Integration projects took a few months or longer to complete and were not agile enough to handle ongoing requirements or even field changes.
Today, Informatica Cloud offers business a more innovative approach to SAP data extraction – ultimately, promoting agile development and enabling rapid deployment with the following three important features.
Automatically Generating ABAP Code
At the core of Informatica's solution is the Cloud Connector for SAP. While the face of the Connector is a simple, wizard-based, drag-and-drop interface, under the hood it uses a Remote Function Call (RFC) to dynamically generate ABAP code (based on user choices) to connect with SAP and access the data through the application layer.
Drag and Drop Design Palette
The wizard guides the user through the steps necessary to extract the data from SAP and send it to any application where it is needed. Using Informatica Cloud's drag-and-drop design palette, one can simply choose SAP – like any other application endpoint – and select what is needed to connect to the target, without ever having write specialized code.
Because of the dynamically generated ABAP code, SaaS application administrators trying to connect to SAP don't have to deal with the SAP transports (and the lengthy development cycle) for each extract, reducing the time from months to weeks for an individual project, as well as the load on the BASIS administrators. The increased agility enables end users to respond to business demands by acquiring related data extracts, field and feature changes and/or additions – in near real time. Informatica also reduces the load on both the admin and the server – even further by eliminating the need for transports and sending the data in packets, and by running the extracts in the background. And since no data is staged or buffered on the SAP server, there is never a risk of compromising the system's or online users' performance.
Speedy Development Through Vibe Integration Packages
Informatica's solution also includes a technology bundle to speed up development time and reduce the user's learning curve. The bundle, or Informatica Vibe integration package, consists of downloadable templates that help the user to understand and use the complex SAP interfaces. Future roadmap releases will contain resources for additional SAS endpoints.
In his review mentioned above in the opening, Lepofsky notes the importance of integration and the partner ecosystem to the Jam platform. The same can be said of the SAP Business Suite and the specialized LOB cloud apps that orbit it. Without ready and real-time access to SAP's data, even the most feature-rich app is of little use to anyone. With Informatica's Cloud Connector for SAP, business users, like Informatica customer Addivant, now have a simple and efficient way to solve the most pressing problems presented by SAP to cloud app integration.

We have a U-Line icemaker model ULN-5598-03. (just happen to have our survey on the table for an insurance application) The ice maker is one of those things that we never knew we needed. Now that we have it, I don't think I would ever want to be without it again. Runs on 110V. The ice bucket inside makes a ton of ice, we've never used it all, and its as cold as your freezer at at home. We set up its own 3 gallon reservoir, which we fill with bottled water.
The trick is to leave the dock with it completely full so the temp doesn't decline too much during the day. It will obviously be off all day long. If we run the genset an hour at night and in the morning, it all refreezes fine. Because the ice just skins over with a little water, the cubes freeze together, but are very easy to break back up with the scoop. If you only run the genset once during each day, it will melt a bit on the bottom and after a few days, you need to dump it and start over. If you return the dock each night, you'll go weeks before enough melts to notice.
We just thought of this trick which we will try this summer. Bury some Ben and Jerry's ice cream under all the ice. At the dock, its a huge freezer. The ice should keep it in reasonable shape for the day and the quick runup in the evening should put us back in the ice cream business for dessert. Probably the biggest thing my wife misses on the boat.

Israeli Says Jews Shouldn't Celebrate the Fourth
Americans are apparently not in God's country
"Hearing which song gives you more goose pimples and a greater feeling of patriotism? The Star Spangled Banner or HaTikva?"
"If there was a war between the United States and Israel, which army would you join?"
"Which of these foods do you consider your nation's favorite?" (Pictured: a cheeseburger and a falafel sandwich.)
These are some of the questions Israeli novelist and provocateur Tzvi Fishman asks in his "Jewish Identity Quiz" in The Jewish Press, the Brooklyn-based Modern Orthodox newspaper. It's a follow-up to his screed against Jews celebrating the Fourth of July. "Yom HaAtzmaut is Independence Day for the Jews, not the 4th of July," he wrote. "Boker tov, my friends, but Israel is our nation, not America."
You should read the whole thing, and give Fishman a piece of your mind (with civility!) in the comments if you like. I'd only observe that it's striking and scary to me how those who subscribe to the mutated, radical Zionism of Fishman—the belief not merely that Jews have the right to a state of their own in the Holy Land, but that it is the sole state of all Jews whether they like it or not—can sound like the anti-Zionists. "Thank you for giving me wonderful children who are all growing up as Jews from the tip of their kippot down to their sandals and Crocs, without dual loyalties and schizophrenic identities," Fishman writes, and here is betting that if blogs like Mondoweiss see this article, they will highlight it, too: Fishman is making their point for them.
Here is the first radio broadcast of "God Bless America," a great American song written by Irving Berlin.

By Matthew Hurley, photo by Tom Casino: As the anticipation continued to build for the rubber match between Israel Vazquez, 43-4 with 32 KOs and Rafael Marquez, 37-5 with 33 KOs nearly everyone in the boxing community assumed the third match-up would more than live up to the hype. Their first two bouts provided relentless action of the highest order and gave each fighter a win over the other. Tonight they did not disappoint with WBC super bantamweight champion Vazquez taking the rubber match with a twelve round split decision victory..
The official scores were 114-111, 113-112 for Vazquez while the third judge scored it 114-111 for Marquez. I scored the bout 114-110 for Vazquez. Their epic three bout series will now go down alongside such other legendary trilogies as Erik Morales Marco Antonio Barrera, Tony Zale Rocky Graziano and Micky Ward Arturo Gatti.
In an intense battle controlled early by Marquez the bout stepped into epic status in a remarkable fourth round in which Marquez dropped Vazquez to the canvas with two beautiful right hands with fifty seconds left in the round. Earlier in the round an accidental head butt seemed to stun Vazquez. Once he regained his feet however the champion stormed forward and wobbled Marquez. At the end of the round Vazquez was cut over the left eye.
The bout, fought at a tremendously high level of technical skill, became more tactical in the middle rounds with Marquez moving to his left and striking with a superior jab but in the sixth and seventh rounds Vazquez began to connect more consistently and backed Marquez up. There were instances in rounds seven through nine where Marquez seemed to be slowing down from Vazquezs relentless pressure.
In the tenth round, after three previous warnings for slightly low blows, referee Pat Russell deducted a point from Marquez in a round in which Rafael was doing very well. In the eleventh round Marquezs left eye was closing while Vazquez was now suffering from a cut over the right eye.
The twelfth and final round would prove pivotal as a tiring Marquez began to clinch as Vazquez walked him down. With under a minute remaining in a round where it appeared that Marquez would hit the canvas Vazquez connected, driving his rival backwards. Marquez grabbed for the top rope to steady himself and was immediately punched flush in the face by a Vazquez right hand. Pat Russell then jumped in and correctly gave Marquez a standing eight count. Marquez, shaking his head then parried a charging Vazquez in the final seconds before the bell finally ended this amazing rivalry.
One question on nearly everyones lips was Should they fight a fourth time? The two fighters are so evenly matched that they couldnt possibly disappoint but one would assume that neither man wants to see the other immediately. The punishment both absorbed in their twenty-five scintillating rounds would be enough to alter any mans career. A tremendously disappointed Marquez, who insisted that he deserved the decision, was too upset in the ring to commit to a fourth match or even discuss his future. Vazquez however nodded when asked if he would be willing to engage his most intense rival yet again.
Whatever happens in the future Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez gave boxing fans three fights that define boxing at its best. The reverence the crowd showed them at the final bell was more than well deserved and a long rest for both fighters would seem the best course of action in the immediate future. They have given so much in such a short period of time.

A Visual Display of the Toll of Syrian Conflict on Refugee Women & Girls in the Heart of Washington DC
2014 Recap: A Dire Year for Syrian Refugees
CARE looks back on the last 12 months working with Syrian refugees.
SYRIA: Images From Inside
An illustration of the life Syrian refugees left behind, images shared with CARE Syrian refugee volunteers, as captured by their family who have remained behind.
Young Voices From Syria
We asked five young Syrian refugees to share their dreams and a message to the world. What they had to say was both heartbreaking and inspiring.
More than 2.8 million people have fled the country

Country Info
CARE began work in Jordan in 1948 to meet the needs of Palestinian refugees displaced with the creation of Israel. Currently, economic participation of women remains lower here than in other countries in the region despite comparatively higher educational attainment. Traditional values that restrict women's rights are compounded by discrimination in the workplace. Jordan also has one of the lowest levels of water resource availability per capita in the world.
As the population doubles over the next two decades, water scarcity will become an even greater problem and will challenge farmers to improve food security through environmentally sustainable agricultural practices.
Jordan has been host to an estimated 450,000 refugees fleeing violence and insecurity in Iraq and 580,000 refugees to date from the Syria conflict. We are working to meet the needs of poor farmers, women, and these refugees, all affected by conflict, economic disparity, discrimination or a fragile resource base.

CARE Jordan has a program where refugees from Iraq come together to learn literacy, form creative teams, and work with the elderly. Women are taught team-building and skills like embroidery and cooking, and create products that can be sold to help generate revenue for their family.
The ongoing armed conflict in Syria has affected more than 8.6 million people, including 4 million children. We're working to help the more than 2 million Syrian refugees struggling to survive.
CARE joins Jordanian Government, Partners to Open Azraq Refugee Camp
Jordan opens new camp to cope with increasing numbers of Syrian refugees
Azraq, Jordan - The Government of Jordan officially opened the Azraq Refugee Camp today. The camp, which is located some 100km east of Amman and 20km west of the town of Al Azraq in Zarqa Governorate, has been established to provide protection to Syrian refugees who continue to cross into Jordan in search of safety.

CARE International ready to support newly arrived Syrian refugees in Azraq camp, Jordan
Amman, Jordan - CARE is ready to provide much needed support to newly arrived refugees when they reach Azraq camp, Jordan's sixth Syrian refugee camp. Azraq camp will start receiving refugees after the 21st of April whilst the camp's official opening day is on the 30th of April.
Syrian Humanitarian Crisis Growing More Dire
More than three years after the start of the Syrian war, the humanitarian plight of more than 6 million people displaced inside Syria and the 2.5 million refugees scattered in the region is growing more dismal by the day and is currently considered the worst humanitarian crisis in the world. In the latest sign of the increasingly troubled outlook, a new refugee camp is scheduled to open in Jordan later this spring. The new Azraq camp is expected to relieve some of the pressure from the sprawling Za'atari camp.
Urban Syrian Refugees Struggle to Make Ends Meet in Jordan
CARE releases new study on situation of urban refugees

Hastings police are seeking a scam artist who has been making
money out of convincing people looking to earn some money to
hand over $50.
The man has been moving around the greater Hastings area over
the past month approaching people under the guise of someone
who has connections in the employment industry and who can
find them a job - if they hand over a weekly fee of $50.
Flaxmere Community Constable Greg Andrew said he had caught
out "several" people who were desperate to find work and had
collected money from them.
"He comes across as very plausible - he knows what he's
doing," Mr Andrew said.
As well as locals he had been approaching overseas visitors
at backpackers and telling them he could find them some
holiday work - for a fee.
Mr Andrew said one of the man's popular spots was the Work
and Income carpark in Hastings as people arrived and left, as
well as making approaches to people in the central city and
even orchards.
"Several people have lost money after paying him in the
belief that he would find a job for them," Mr Andrew said.
"These are people who are trying to do the right thing and
find work - and it is particularly distressing for them as
they not only lose their money but they are given a false
hope that they will have a job," he said.
The man is described as Maori, in his early 50s, about 1.8m
(5 feet 11) tall, of solid build and balding.
He has been seen driving a silver Subaru sedan and on some
occasions he was accompanied by a woman when he approached
Mr Andrew said police were "very keen" to speak to the man
and offered some simple advice to anyone who found themselves
offered the opportunity of work in exchange for a $50 fee.
"Don't pay him any money and send him on his way."
Mr Andrew said there had been a scam running along the same
lines about two or three years ago.
He was not sure exactly how many people had been duped this
time around although the man had been active in many areas.
Anyone who has had dealings with the man, or thinks they may
know who he is, is asked to contact Mr Andrew at Flaxmere
Police Station on 831 0700.

Owners of residences annexed by Mount Airy in recent years who haven't connected to the municipal utility system are scheduled to be discussed during a meeting of the city board of commissioners Thursday afternoon.
The meeting will begin at 2 p.m. in the Municipal Building.
There is concern on the board about some property owners not meeting deadlines for hookups that became mandatory after their neighborhoods were taken in to the city. In 2012, 260 certified letters were mailed to those who had not connected to the water and sewer service as required by city ordinance.
They were given deadlines to have connections made to both utilities by the end of the year.
However, some have not complied, according to figures supplied Monday by Pam Stone, interim city finance director, whose department handles water and sewer operations.
"We have not run the numbers for that recently," Stone said.
But at last report, in May 2013 when former Finance Director John Overton prepared a follow-up memo from the 2012 letters, 148 locations were identified in the city limits with no water or sewer hookups.
Another 409 active customer accounts were identified in May 2013 as having water service, but not sewer.
"We have not have a lot of response since," Stone added of the period since the last tally.
The board's discussion Thursday afternoon will be limited to mandatory water hookups and those who have not connected, based on the agenda for the meeting.
In anticipation of that discussion, commissioners asked that letters sent to individual property owners and related information be assembled, along with the applicable ordinances regulating connections.
The history of the situation dates to July 2007 when the Hollyview Forest and Sandy Level subdivisions were annexed, which were joined by the Cross Creek and Laurel court subdivisions in July 2008. Residents were notified of deadline schedules for the utility connections.
When the letters were mailed in 2012, the target was property owners in all four neighborhoods who had not complied. They were threatened with further action, "including legal action if necessary."
The holdup in some cases could be financial in nature, which also has surfaced with people who can't afford to make building repairs to homes so that they meet minimum building codes.
For example, one resident of Burgundy Lane who got one of the letters in the summer of 2012 has said it cost her more than $1,000, just to begin receiving water service. That expense would have been higher had a neighbor not donated the labor, she said. The largest part of the cost was an $800 fee for her residential service tap.
However, city officials have said that the situation with people not hooking up isn't fair to those who have complied with the regulations.

Last week I covered new and substantially different, or newish economy cars for 2012 from Chevy to Honda alphabetically. This week I'll cover from Hyundai to Yugo. Actually lets start with Yugo: There haven't been any new Yugos since 1985. But no news is good news, especially if you have ever driven one of them.
Hyundai: The big news here is an all new Accent. It starts at little more than $13k and tops out near $17k. It continues Hyundai's attempt to beat the Japanese car makers the way they beat the rest of the world back in the 70s–by making better cars, and making them cheaper. You get a 1.6 liter 4-cylinder motor, a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission and up to 40 miles per gallon on the highway. You also get a car that makes the original 1980s Hyundai Excel look like it was made in East Germany.
Nothing really new with the Elantra, which was all new last year. There is a new "ECO" button to help you get better mileage by changing throttle and transmission settings in low speed in town driving.
The bigger news is the Veloster, a sporty 3-door hatchback with similar drive train as the Accent, but with a dual clutch sporty automatic. It will be priced above the top of the line Accent. The Veloster also marks the return of cars with different sized door on either side. The driver's side is a bit longer, but the passenger side has a shorter door and an extra rear door to aid getting into the rear seats. I think the AMC Pacer was the last car to try this.
Kia: There's an all new Rio at Kia, with 1.6l direct injection 4-cylinder engine and much more interesting styling. Since Kia and Hyundai are corporate cousins, I expect it shares quite a few parts and specifications with the Accent.
It starts at about $12k ($15k for the hatchback) and also gets 40mpg.
Not much changed on the Kia Soul, but it does have more power. So here's "A Little Bit of Soul" by the Little Darlings.
Mazda: Mazda also gives you a choice of 2 or 3, for your small car dollar. I think they must have fired the guy who used to come up with the names in a cost-cutting move. The 3 gets a minor facelift and a new motor option called the Skyactiv-G, which is just a 2.0l 4 cylinder with direct injection and every other trick in the book and a few new ones to give you a few more MPGs. With this moto,r your new 3 will get 40 mpg on the highway. 3s start at about $16k.
The 2 is based on the same platform as the Ford Fiesta, or vice-versa. Because the 2 does not get the fancy new motor, it can only get up to 35 mpg, but it is supposed to be great fun to drive. It gets a 1.6l 4 cylinder and a 4-speed auto or 5-speed stick for $14k and up.
Mini: Not a lot has changed here, though there is a new 2-seater. It weighs more, and costs more, plus gets worse mileage.
Nissan: For some reason there is an all new Versa sedan, but the hatchback is still the same old, same old. It is still one of, if not the cheapest, new cars you can buy. It starts at under $11k! According to the ads they have been running, now it also has more interior room than a Mercedes E class. If you are looking for the cheapest to buy, cheapest to drive new car out there, I think this is it. It still has a 1.6l 4cyl and 5-speed stick or CVT automatic. You'll get 36-38 mpg for your money.
Scion: It's been delayed by the recent earthquake and flooding in Japan, but soon you'll be able to buy the 3 1/2 seat iQ. It has an offset driver/passenger seat and so can only fit 1 full sized rear seat passenger and a child or pet. It's got a 1.3l motor and a CVT automatic. No idea what mileage it will get yet, but it should cost $15k or so, and be very easy to park. Imagine a Smart car as built by Toyota and you get the idea.
Suzuki: Nothing new, but I just wanted to remind people that they are still out there making cars and selling them in the USA. An SX4 starts at $14k and is like a mini Suburu Impreza with all-wheel drive an option and a great fun to drive factor.
Toyota: The Yaris does the opposite of the Nissan Versa: the hatchback is all new, but the sedan is all the same. The drive trains all carry over, but the body is redone. It's much cuter, starts at $13k, and gets 36mpg hwy out of its 1.5l 4cyl and 5 speed stick or 4 speed automatic.
By the way, if you need a cheap truck, with the Ford Ranger gone the Tacoma now is your cheapest new truck on the market. The Tacoma starts at $16.4k and undercuts the Chevy Colorado by $1000.
Traditionally Volkswagen ought to be at the end of the list, but the all new Jetta (and Golf, for that matter) are decidedly mid-sized cars these days. Plus even with the "dumbing down" and cheapening of them for the American market they still start at $16.5k for the Jetta, $18k for the Golf. Why VW doesn't bring in a model smaller and cheaper than this I don't know. They certainly build them for other countries and I'm sure they could be made safe and emissions-legal for the USA. It's an odd business move for a company that want to be as big as Toyota.
So that's it–now you know what's new and what's not at your new car dealer.

Marine Harvest ASA : MHG - WAY FORWARD AFTER TERMINATING THE CERMAQ PROCESS Further to the termination of the Cermaq process Marine Harvest has successfully completed the divestment of its remaining holding in Cermaq. The total holding, which constituted 5,053,544 shares, was sold at an average price of NOK 105.6 per share and provided a total gain of NOK 133.5 million. Marine Harvest will, in line with what we have communicated earlier, focus its resources on the development of green field feed capacity in Norway, expansion within Norwegian and Chilean farming as well as the forthcoming integration of Morpol. The increased financial flexibility created by the sale of the Cermaq shares, termination of the transaction and the current strong salmon prices is likely to lead to a reintroduction of a quarterly dividend payments commencing from Q2 reporting.

Letter from Chicago
After the Blowup

It took the combined creative energy of 12 women from the Five-Town area of Vergennes, Addison, Ferrisburgh, Panton and Waltham to turn a community service dream into a business reality in Vermonts Small City. Thanks to the womens business acumen and a shared belief in the simple philosophy of recycle, reuse, restore and resell, Vergennes dynamic dozen came together to open an exciting new kind of thrift shop in the Ryan Block of downtown Vergennes.
Sweet Charity, located at 141A Main St. next to Luigis Restaurant, is the latest incarnation of the nonprofit resale shop in Addison Countya county where secondhand shops are just about as popular with female shoppers as are area boutiques. And dont be fooled by the old labels. Sweet Charity is a far cry from your mothers mothball-scented thrift shop.
Affiliated with Hospice Volunteer Services of Addison County and Women of Wisdom, Sweet Charity is a first-class home-goods resale venture that will fund good works for the community for Women of Wisdom and Hospice Services.
While it is decidedly upscale in attitude and presentation, Sweet Charitys bottomline prices should appeal to nearly everyonefrom low-income shoppers and college students to wardrobe bargain hunters and saavy interior decorators. Theres truly something for everyone at Sweet Charity.
According to Liz Ryan, one of the shops founding members, We resell preloved goods for the home. This includes furniture, art, glassware, kitchen goods and decorative home accessories along with donated pieces that have been revitalized by the creative genius of our local artists.
According to Ryan and fellow shopowners Liz Markowski and Patty Paul, Sweet Charitys continued success will depend on local shoppers as well as volunteers.
Our salaried manager position is shared by two Women of Wisdom who are very successful Vergennes businesswomen, Ryan said. And the volunteers are from Women of Wisdom, Hospice Volunteers Services; they also include several individuals from the community who believe in what we are doing here.

Texas HS football state champs offering commemorative ring
FEB 12, 2014 12:54p ET
If you didn't know already, football is king in Texas.
And at arguably the state's biggest high school football powerhouse with a $60 million stadium, every student can now be a part of the back-to-back 5A Division I State Champions.
Class rings aren't enough anymore in the Dallas suburb of Allen. For $299, every Allen High School student can have their own commemorative championship ring.

Week Two of Open Enrollment Sees Glitches Continue -
Technical problems continue to plague healthcare.gov in the second week since the online Health Insurance Marketplace was launched.

By James Slater - In what was a very slow weekend for the sport of boxing, one big news story emerged: one that tells us the eagerly-awaited light-welterweight showdown between unbeaten talents Tim Bradley and Devon Alexander will go ahead as planned on January 29th.
For a time it looked like the WBC/IBF/WBO 140-pound clash might not happen, but yesterday, Kevin Cunningham, trainer of Alexander, told Fightnews.com that his man has indeed signed to fight the WBO champ, and that the fight will take place at the end of January in either Las Vegas or Miami. Neither fighter will get hometown advantage then..
A great match-up that will surely lead to a superb fight, perhaps of the chess-match variety, the winner of Bradley Vs. Alexander will emerge as the number-one of the talent-rich light-welterweight division. WBA ruler Amir Khan is sure to say something on this claim, if he can get past Argentine banger Marcos Maidana in December, and the ultimate plan is for the Khan-Maidana winner to square off with the Bradley-Alexander victor. Great times indeed for the 140-pound division!
Bradley, currently 26-0(11) and four years older than Alexander at age 27, has shown how good he is. Earning wins over tough foes like Junior Witter, Kendall Holt, Lamont Peterson and, last time out up at 147-pounds, Luis Carlos Abregu, the man known as Desert Strom can box and he can bang, he can fight on the outside, he can fight on the inside. Thus far, Bradley really has looked like a fighter who can do it all.
Alexander, currently 21-0(13) has also proven his worth along with his talent. A slick southpaw who can also hit with authority, The Great has picked up fine wins over the likes of Junior Witter (who Devon stopped, whereas Tim won on points), Juan Urnago (another sensational stoppage) and, in his last fight, Andriy Kotelnik. This last fight for Alexander, back in August (a month after Bradley beat Abregu) was of a controversial nature, with some people feeling Kotelnik was hard done by with regards to the scoring. In some ways one of Alexanders least impressive showings, the win certainly led Bradley to feel he has the beating of him.
Still, Alexander - and Bradley himself - will surely enter the January 29th fight with a perfect mindset, and both men will be up for this fight like no other. Indeed, the upcoming battle should bring out the best in both men.

John Bielenberg and his work with PieLab aren't new to Alabama Chanin, or our blog. We were curious what John has been up to, so we caught up with him between his travels to learn more about Project M, PieLab, and recent goings on in Greensboro, Alabama.
We also got our hands on a delicious recipe from the pop-up café, PieLab, for our Wednesday Recipes.
Their Tart Apple Pie with White Cheddar Crust has a beautiful lattice top that looks like the pies I ate growing up. Combining the tartness of the apples with the savory of the white cheddar makes for a fabulous slice of pie. If only it weren't a three hour drive down to Greensboro to get a slice. Recipe then Q&A with John to follow:
