Cody McLeod and Erik Johnson both scored their first goals of the season, and Jean-Sebastian Giguere had 25 saves as the Colorado Avalanche beat the Washington Capitals 2-1 on Saturday night for their fifth straight home victory. Washington's Alexander Semin forged a 1-1 tie with a shot from the center of the right circle that sailed into the net over Giguere's left shoulder at 13:09 of the second period. Just 54 seconds later, Johnson put Colorado back on top with a slap shot from the right point that zoomed past goalie Michal Neuvirth, going inside the left post for the decisive score in the teams' only meeting of the season. With less than a minute to go, the Capitals pulled Neuvirth for an extra attacker and were on the power play for the final 13 seconds, but Giguere turned away both of their shots. McLeod gave Colorado a 1-0 lead just 2:49 in when his shot from near the blue line found its way past Neuvirth, just inside the right post. Alex Ovechkin, who had the game's on...

Nobody could make sense out of what happened to Mark Kilroy. It was all mixed up with black magic, white magic, drugs, mestizo superstition, gringo hedonism, coincidence, and random selection. We had warned ourselves about this sort of thing many times and still didn't believe. It was the curse of el otro lado — the other side. Antonio Zavaleta, an expert on curanderismo who teaches at Texas Southmost College in Brownsville, was sometimes called to the other side of the border to supervise ghostbusting. "Look," said Zavaleta, who had taught sociology and anthropology to two members of the murderous gang responsible for Kilroy's death, "I'm a scientist. I have a Ph.D. in anthropology from the University of Texas. But when I went over there, I put a cross around my neck."
By the time Mark Kilroy's body was found on April 11 at Rancho Santa Elena, his disappearance had been the subject of fascinated media speculation for a month. The 21-year-old junior at the University of Texas had gone to South Padre Island along with thousands of other students during spring break and had simply vanished one night in the border town of Matamoros. From the beginning his disappearance seemed like an eerie and arbitrary event — a true mystery. When Kilroy's fate was finally known, the mystery was even greater, because few of us were conditioned to accept the reality of human sacrifice to Satan.
Officials on both sides of the border had begun to suspect black magic a couple of weeks before the bodies of Kilroy and fourteen others were discovered. A psychic had reported a vision in which Kilroy's body appeared alongside what looked like a witch's caldron. A satanist in Brownsville had confessed to murdering Kilroy and burying his body on the beach — though under questioning, he recanted. When lawmen finally began to sort things out, the ritual killings seemed almost predestined. A map drawn two years ago by confessed mass-killer Henry Lee Lucas had predicted with inexplicable accuracy that the bodies of victims of satanic rituals would be found about where Kilroy and others were found.
The beginning of the end of the search for Kilroy was suitably bizarre. Serafin Hernandez Garcia, a nephew of the cruel and clever gangster boss Elio Hernandez Rivera, ran a routine roadblock on Sunday afternoon, April 9, and stupidly led federales to the ranch that his family used for its smuggling operations. Serafin was no towering intellect — he displayed none of the savvy that had made his uncle the leader of a gang of smugglers and pistoleros who had terrorized Matamoros and the state of Tamaulipas for years — but he was no dummy either. Yet he went through that roadblock as if he believed himself to be invisible and bulletproof.
Later that same day federales started searching the Hernandez ranch, Rancho Santa Elena. They had turned up thirty kilos of marijuana when one of them made a discovery that chilled his blood. To the unpracticed eye of a norteamericano, it appeared to be an ordinary storage shed with some melted candles, cigar butts, and empty bottles on the floor and some greasy caldrons in the yard. But the Mexican cops saw something else. They saw a devil's temple, a place where black magic had been practiced. When they reported this astonishing news to their comandante, Juan Benitez Ayala, the investigation came to a screeching halt — much to the distress of American lawmen who believed that the smugglers knew something about the disappearance of Mark Kilroy. But Benitez was adamant: The search could not resume until the black magic had been neutralized.
Mexico has always been a country with a rich legacy of magic, born of the dynamic fusion between Christianity and ancient Indian religions. A visit to any marketplace reveals a tradition tracing back to the Aztecs — an enormous variety of strange and powerful herbs, potions, and amulets. Brujos, or shamans, work the villages, casting spells or relieving them for small fees. Even in cities as large as Matamoros ancient superstitions are a way of life; a maquiladora recently was spared being shut down only because a curandero was able to dehex a piece of expensive machinery with which a worker had been seriously injured. Magic is omnipresent; the plot of a popular mid-eighties prime-time soap opera in Mexico, El Maleficio ("The Evil One"), revolved around the premise that a wealthy businessman in Oaxaca was able to sustain power by praying nightly to Satan. Magic is also double-edged; for every evil there is a counterbalancing good. American lawmen who had visited the office of the comandante in Matamoros had noticed strings of garlic, strings of peppers, and white candles, articles commonly used in Mexico to ward off evil. It was no surprise then that Benitez called off the search until a curandero could be summoned to the ranch to cast out the demons.
After the curandero did his magic, things happened fast. On Monday afternoon a caretaker at the ranch identified a photograph of Mark Kilroy and remembered seeing him handcuffed in the back of a Suburban in the equipment yard. In an interrogation room of the Matamoros jail, Elio Hernandez Rivera, Serafin Hernandez Garcia, and two other suspects who had been arrested at the ranch confessed to kidnapping Kilroy and witnessing his ritual sacrifice.

Washington, DC
Anna Downs spent her EDF Climate Corps fellowship at the Smithsonian Institution, the world's largest museum and research complex. She focused on opportunities to improve energy efficiency with lighting upgrades in 19 museums around the National Mall in Washington, D.C., as well as the National Zoological Park. Together, these facilities host 30 million visitors annually.
Downs looked specifically at the potential for lighting upgrades in the public spaces of Smithsonian museums, in part because a single art museum can turn on more than 10,000 gallery lights every day. Downs found that by investing about $200,000 in carefully selected light-emitting diode (LED) retrofits in several museums, more than $175,000 could be saved each year. These retrofits would pay for themselves in less than 18 months.
In total, the projects identified by Downs could reduce Smithsonian's energy use by more than one million kilowatt hours annually, saving the institution more than $620,000 over five years.

John Harrigan: Warming trend and ticks spelling trouble for moose
Not so very long ago, in my lifetime in fact, and I'm not that old (it says here), New Hampshire's moose were almost gone. Due to a number of factors - subsistence hunting, sport hunting, ignorance of population dynamics, devastation of habitat - the moose count during my growing-up years, the '50s, was 15 to 75, depending on your sources. But who can count moose?
In the interim, New Hampshire's moose management program has been one of the most talked-about success stories in the country.
Now New Hampshire's moose are facing new foes. The foes are a warmer climate and ticks. Warm weather stresses moose, built for cold climes. And warm weather, and especially milder winters, favor the multiplication of ticks. Ticks of several varieties are now being seen in parts of New Hampshire where they've never been seen before.
Yearling cow moose have to be at least 440 pounds in the fall to produce calves the next spring, and need to be 550 pounds the next fall to produce spring twins. In recent years, their weights have been falling short.
New Hampshire is not alone here. All across the northern states, cow weights are declining. Northern Maine and (maybe) far-northern New Hampshire seem to be exceptions.
There can be as many as 160,000 ticks on one lone hapless moose.
The loss of blood to ticks can bring a moose to its knees. More ticks have been surviving winters because winters have been getting milder. Visit a checking station during moose season and ask any biologist or helper weighing and checking moose for age and general condition, as I have and anyone from the public can too, and you'll get a quick education about what the average moose hauls around in its pelt. It is not a pretty sight.
Lately I've been hearing from hunters who, concerned about the moose population, would rather see the hunting season shut down outright than risk the long-term health of the herd. On the face of it, this is a heartening thing.
Not so very long ago, a century ago, not a long time in the long scheme of things, hunters would have been crying, "Damn the resource, full speed ahead." The turnaround is a manifestation of how far we have come since Theodore Roosevelt and other giants of conservation led the way into a new era of protection, preservation and enhancement.
I've known Kris Rhines, who runs Fish and Game's moose management program, for 35 years or so. She says that while the moose in the White Mountains region and south are feeling the effects of warming climate enough to cause concern, moose in northern Coos are doing fairly well. "There's a decline," she says, "but it's happened before."
The number of moose permits from the lottery will be adjusted, as always, according to other factors affecting the moose population. There is a time lag here because people have already sent in their money to enter the lottery, and the permit-holders are announced in the spring. Kris says that any necessary adjustments can be made for the following season.
What about lacing salt-blocks with anti-tick ingredients and scattering them here and yon? This is a well-meant suggestion, and Kris has received it before, and it might work, but (there's always a but):
"When they need salt the most is in the spring," Kris said. "They tend to ignore salt during summer. Ticks get on them in the fall." So moose might ignore the tick-repellant-laced salt-bocks when they would do the most good.
Finally, there is the often heard complaint that people are not seeing as many roadside moose as in years before. This is a complaint that I often hear, from tourist lodging businesses and from people who have camps, and from people who drive all the way up here from Manchester and Nashua to go cruising for moose-sightings.
Kris says it's because the roadside clearcuts, whose low-growing hardwood saplings and their nutritious buds drew moose, have grown too high for moose to reach, and they have gone on to newer and more remote clearcuts.
The suggestion is that if you want to see moose, get away from the main roads and drive the back roads, or better, put a fanny pack on and take a hike.
However, I've heard from many people who often do just that, get well into the back country, and they say there are just plain fewer moose. And I'm hearing the same from the guys who are out there full time, the loggers and truckers.
There are, Kris agrees, fewer moose, but another way to look at it is that the fewer the moose, the harder it is for ticks to feed and multiply.
"It comes down to whether you want to see a lot of unhealthy moose," she says, "or fewer healthy moose."
Well, Kris is indeed a longtime friend, and I don't want to go against her. But in fact I don't think even she likes the line she's touting. She didn't say that. I'm guessing.
The line I'm hearing, not from Kris, is that Fish and Game cannot refund lottery applicants' money because the department has already spent it. That's hogwash.
Fish and Game should jump through hoops to refund the application money and shut the season down for at least a couple of years.
It's the right thing for the resource, which is what we've been saying for more than a century is what we're all about.

Lila Walter would like to thank the kind residents of Thurman who dropped off a gift basket on her porch last week. Lila says the bowl was filled with lovely items and she truly appreciated the gesture.
This time of year is when many families clean out their children's bedrooms to make room for more age-appropriate items. Please remember those who are less fortunate when you do this. An item that is no longer used in your household could be dropped at North Country Ministrieson Main St. in Warrensburg just across from the post office.
Recently, the Thurman Station Association donated $125 to the food pantry in Thurman. We hear that they are planning on contributing 5 percent of their profits throughout the year from their events to the pantry, which so many local residents depend on to feed their families.

PGP Universal Server 3.x

I am new to PGP and i am trying to configure the PGP Universal Server, I was lead to believe that you can deploy the WDE package from the Uni Server to clients but i cannot seem to find where this is or how to achieve this. Can anyone assist in this? Thanks
Discussion Filed Under:

I recomend to use Altiris or similar deloyment tools to distribute the package over the network to your clients.
From within the universal server you can create an install package from the "Consumers>Groups" page. Select "Download Client" to download a .msi installation package. You can then deploy this using whatever means you normally use for software deployment.
If you had PGP WDE Workgroup edition then you could use that to push out desktop clients.

Over the past few weeks I have been dipping in and out of the portfolio of Blakes London for kitchen inspiration. Today I'm back again with a streamlined design that mixes old and new, light and dark all with accents of on trend brass and a touch of retro.
Neither Kim nor I have kids. It goes a long way to explaining why we don't feature children's rooms on Desire to Inspire. (Besides which Kim's twin sister Julia has a great kid's design blog the boo and the boy so why compete :) The trouble is when I came across Petite Vintage Interiors by Belinda Kurtz I started oohing and aahing and gushing. I stopped short of wanting to have a child. I'll just have me some of the gelati spotted, vintage fun instead. I wish my room had looked like this when I was little.
I admittedly spend alot of what little free time I have on Instagram. It is a wonderful place to virtually meet all kinds of creative people. I came across the Instagram account of designer/stylist/artist Maaike Koster of My Deer a while back and was smitten with her home and her style. Here is a selection from her interior/styling portfolio (she also specializes in concept design/branding).
I have two huge days at work ahead of me. A wedding, a breakfast, a birthday high tea with a complete reset for each. It's times like these I wish I worked in an office again instead of catering and events planning. Cue the daydream music ... perhaps an office like this one by Danish design firm Søren Rose Studio.

Who says you can't get anything for free? You can, if you know where to look. "Good Morning America" Consumer Correspondent Elisabeth Leamy appeared on the show today to tell you how to find a range of products -- from medication to credit monitoring to wireless phone service -- all for free.
Prescription Drugs
Prescription drug costs are rising even as many people are out of work and losing their health care coverage, but big pharmaceutical companies give away more than $200 million in prescription medication each year to the uninsured.
The Partnership for Prescription Assistance works with pharmaceutical companies to provide free medicines to people with too much money to qualify for Medicaid but not enough to afford health insurance.
Rules on free prescriptions vary, but typically a person who makes less than $21,000 a year, or a family of four that lives on less than $44,000, would be eligible, Leamy said.
There's no time limit for program. As long as your budget remains tight, you'll continue to qualify. The paperwork is easy to fill out.
Click HERE to visit the Partnership for Prescription Assistance.
Free Credit Monitoring
People are worried about identity theft, but it costs money to use a credit monitoring program, which can cost as much as $300 a year.
Consumers are entitled to three free credit reports per year -- one from each of the big credit bureaus. If you order one from Experian in January, another from Equifax in May and the other from TransUnion in September, you'll be checking up on your credit year round.
Credit reports may be free, but the all-important credit scores aren't free yet. There is serious talk in Congress about requiring that each American be given a free peek at their credit score once a year. We'll keep you posted.
Click HERE to visit AnnualCreditReport.com.
Free Cable
Cable is another big expense. The average American family spends more than $800 a year on cable, but there is a way to get TV broadcasts for free through a combination of old-school ingenuity and cutting-edge technology.
Here's what to do: Use an indoor antenna, or put an antenna on your roof -- and you'll capture the digital signals sent out by the over-the-air broadcast signals.
Since the digital changeover, many more channels are available with just the indoor antenna. Leamy said she gets about 40 channels just with the indoor antenna, and she doesn't have cable or satellite television service.
You'll capture even more channels with an antenna on the roof.
Anything that's not available that way can usually be found online. There are many websites where you can watch your favorite shows, sports and movies for free.
Of course, it's not so much fun to watch shows on your computer, but there are alternatives. You can connect your computer to your TV and watch anything that's on the Internet on your TV screen. Hook-up procedures vary depending on your equipment, but there are dozens of tutorials online that will show you the various configurations.
Click HERE to learn more about alternatives to cable.

Life is a journey...
I think life is to be enjoyed, and I typically do just that. I'll try about anything once, and keep a very positive outlook. I love to laugh and experience new things, and I'm looking for someone who shares that outlook! I love to travel, and work very hard to be able to play hard! I'm fiercely independent, but also very social, so while I will gladly do an activity on my own, I'd love to have someone that enjoys some of the same things I do. My interests are varied... I mentioned my love of travel and new experiences... some of my favorite places to visit... Kauai (lived there for 6 years), Yosemite, Paris... I love the outdoors, and being active. I run / hike at least 5 days a week, and health and wellness are definitely a priority to me. I love to cook, and have recently had fun modifying some of my favorite recipes to make them healthier and free of carbs! I come from a wine background, so a day of wine tasting is high on my list of favorite activities! I like sports... (Niners, Giants - let's just get that out there, I'm loyal to my SF teams, but we can still be friends if your loyalty is elsewhere!). Not the kind of girl that is going to swap stats with you, but definitely love to spend the day watching a game, either live or on television, especially in a crowded sports bar! I absolutely love music, and will rarely pass up an opportunity to see a live band. I like everything from Jazz to RB, Country, Alternative, Rock, Hip Hop... and pretty much anything in between. Nothing moves or motivates me the way music does. I love to dance, and intend to learn to Salsa this summer. I'm not a fan of television, so am unlikely to be up on popular culture, so if that's the basis of many of your conversations, we likely won't have much to talk about! I'm a bit of an adrenaline junkie... I like things that go fast, cars, boats, motorcycles... I've jumped out of a plane, whitewater rafted, bungie jumped, zip lined, and would do them all again in a heartbeat! There's still a lot I haven't done, and every day is an opportunity to make a new memory... Life is not about the number of breaths that you take, rather the number of moments that take your breath away. If you find yourself intrigued, and wanting to know more, let me know... I will say, that I'm not interested in endless online communication, I'm interested in meeting people. So please be serious about actually meeting in short order if you contact me... Cheers!

Telework could unleash a currently untapped 'incredible amount' of efficieny, said ATF CIO Rick Holgate. (FCW photo)
There are still untapped savings and productivity gains to be had for the government through increased use of telework, argued federal IT leaders speaking at the Mobile Work Exchange Town Hall on Sept. 12.
"As a federal workforce, as a federal organization, we are still inordinately attached to real estate," said Rick Holgate, CIO and assistant director for science and technology at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. "We, as an organization, have a huge amount of real estate still, even though frankly on a daily basis most of our workforce, if they're being productive, are nowhere near an office."
Holgate cited surveys performed by AOL Government and MeriTalk that estimate mobility could save the government seven work hours per employee per week and between $12 billion and $14 billion annually.
"That's an incredible amount of untapped efficiency in the federal space," Holgate said.
The Telework Enhancement Act was signed into law in 2010 and mandates that agencies establish telework policies.
"And yet we still find ourselves, as individuals, having to build a business case," said Rebecca Ayers, manager for performance management solutions at Office of Personnel Management.
Cultural bias against telework is one of the chief roadblocks to wider implementation, whether in the form of employees who feel more comfortable in the office or managerial reluctance.
"It's not really about recreating the office experience of somewhere else," Holgate said. "It's about thinking differently about how we get work done."
And that thinking may prove critical at a time when sequestration and furloughs are embedded in the federal vernacular.
Bill Powers, senior advisor on business continuity and mobility programs at the National Protection and Programs Directorate at the Department of Homeland Security, said telework "has really emerged as a driver for how we can be more engaged and more productive," important with so much emphasis on efficiency in the current budget climate.
Powers said that a case study on a DHS pilot program revealed that teleworking would save employees an average 168 hours of commuting annually.
An increase in workforce mobility could decrease the need for travel subsidies, decrease the amount of workspace needed, increase employee work time and decrease commuter carbon emissions.
Holgate said a major catalyst to increase workforce mobility is creating a security baseline between agencies. Some agencies, including Justice, Defense and DHS, have done this.
"We need to act more like a federal government as opposed to numerous independent department and agencies," Holgate said.

Texting while driving is becoming more of an issue in Mississippi courtrooms, with a Marshall County judge being asked to make public a video allegedly showing a driver texting as his vehicle collided with another.
And in Massachusetts, the state's first texting-while-driving case is unfolding this week, with jurors deciding whether an 18-year-old was not just speeding but texting when he struck a car, killing its driver and severely injuring a passenger.
The list of 38 states banning texting while driving doesn't include Mississippi, with Alabama being the latest to take up a ban. Only drivers with a learner's permit or behind the wheel of a school bus in Mississippi are barred from texting while driving, thanks to a scaled-back law passed in 2010.
State Sen. Billy Hudson, R-Purvis, one of several lawmakers who this spring unsuccessfully drafted bills that would make it a crime to use a hand-held device to call or text while behind the wheel, hopes the court cases will give new life to his efforts.
Gaps in pay shrinking as union eyes Nissan plant
With renewed talk of unionization at Nissan's Canton plant, an automotive analyst says the gaps between pay and benefits at union and nonunion automotive facilities is shrinking.
Bill Visnic, senior analyst with automotive website Edmunds.com, says the trend is especially true among newer hires in a post-recession landscape where labor unions have made significant concessions to "The Big 3" domestic automakers, particularly General Motors and Chrysler.
A new hire starting work at a nonunionized facility like the Canton plant can earn a comparable wage to someone beginning a job at a unionized plant, Visnic says.
"That (gap) has narrowed to almost nothing," he said.
Supporters of unionization at the Nissan plant allege civil rights and human rights violations at Nissan's U.S. plants. They say the workers should be given a choice, free from employer pressure, on whether to unionize and a greater say in the plant's future.
Puckett Machinery leaving Jackson for Flowood
A staple of south Jackson's business community will leave the city it's called home for 71 years.
Puckett Machinery announced Tuesday it's moving its headquarters - and about 200 employees - from U.S. 80 near J.R. Lynch St., its home since 1941, to Flowood.
That's where the Caterpillar heavy equipment/rental services/engine dealer will build a $20 million to $30 million facility on Flowood Drive across from Nucor Steel. Site work started this week.
The new, 150,000-square-foot facility is expected to open in fall 2013.
"My daddy started working here in March 1953. I started coming here in 1970," said Richard Puckett, Puckett Machinery's chairman/CEO. "It's bittersweet, but we're also very excited about the new location."
Suicides surging among active duty troops
WASHINGTON (AP) - Suicides are surging among America's troops, averaging nearly one a day this year - the fastest pace in the nation's decade of war.
The 154 suicides for active-duty troops in the first 155 days of the year far outdistance the U.S. forces killed in action in Afghanistan - about 50 percent more - according to Pentagon statistics obtained by The Associated Press.
The numbers reflect a military burdened with wartime demands from Iraq and Afghanistan that have taken a greater toll than foreseen a decade ago. The military also is struggling with increased sexual assaults, alcohol abuse, domestic violence and other misbehavior.
Because suicides had leveled off in 2010 and 2011, this year's upswing has caught some officials by surprise.
Jury orders new election in Ward 3, tossing results
On Friday a 12-person jury unanimously awarded Joyce Jackson a new election, throwing out the results of a Jackson City Council runoff race because it was tainted by illegal behavior at the polls.
Councilwoman LaRita Cooper-Stokes' runoff victory on Feb. 28 was immediately questioned by Jackson, who filed a lawsuit contesting it just four days later - the same day her opponent was sworn in. Jackson and a group of her supporters testified at length over the weeklong trial that poll workers illegally assisted voters, coached them to vote for her opponent and allowed Cooper-Stokes' supporters to campaign within 150 feet of polling precincts.
Abortion clinic aiming to prevent closure on July 1
The state's only abortion clinic is scrambling to secure hospital admitting privileges for its three doctors before a law going into effect July 1 shuts it down.
Lawmakers who supported the measure have said they hoped it would close the Jackson Women's Health Organization, located in Fondren, by creating abortion regulations the clinic could not meet.
The law, signed recently by Gov. Phil Bryant, requires that abortion providers be board certified or eligible in obstetrics and gynecology as well as possess privileges at a local hospital.

Welsh fly fisher and fly tyer
By Paul Slaney
Paul introduces himeslf like this:
Paul Slaney, Caerwent, South Wales, UK.
Born in 1963, Ive been flyfishing and tying flies to catch Sea Trout, Trout and Grayling since my early teens.
In this small, over populated, over stocked country its still possible to find fantastic scenery, solitude and the challange of wild fish.
Indeed I count myself as a very lucky bloke as Im able to find all this within a short drive of my home near the Brecon Beacons ( a small national park and range of mountains).
My love of lake fishing developed in the Beacons over the past ten years but the patterns and techniques I use here and other parts of the UK have worked for me in such far flung places as Oregon, Montana, Slovenia, France, and Holland. Im allways interested to hear of lake patterns and lake fishing techniques and stories from round the world so please feel free to get in touch...

Hi Paul, Can you let me know the location of the lake that you had your photos taken fishing the little red devil on one of your sites. This has been debated with my friends on its exact location. I have tried to google it but failed to find it.

Hi Paul, i just read your Andros story, good stuff.

If Americans Knew
|This article relies too much on references to primary sources. (January 2012)
If Americans Knew is a nonprofit organization that focuses on the Arab–Israeli conflict and the foreign policy of the United States regarding the Middle East, offering analysis of American media coverage of these issues. Its mission, according to the group's website, is to provide "what every American needs to know about Israel/Palestine."[1] The site is generally critical of U.S. financial and military support of Israel. It has accused The New York Times and other mainstream news organizations of being biased against Palestinians.[2][3]
In addition to the freelance journalist and founder Alison Weir,[4] board members include[4] Paul Findley, a former United States Representative, and Andrew Killgore, a former ambassador of the United States to Qatar.[5]
According to the organization's website, founder Alison Weir traveled independently throughout the West Bank and Gaza Strip in 2001 and found a situation she considered to be different from what was being reported by the American media. She stated that the U.S. press portrayal was significantly at odds with that reported by media throughout the rest of the world, and that American citizens were being misinformed and uninformed on one of the most significant issues affecting them today. Weir therefore founded an organization that would reflect what she considered to be a more objective viewpoint.[6]
If Americans Knew states that it produces materials, assists in organizing public forums, and provides speakers and written materials to hundreds of events across the United States, including events hosted on the campuses of Harvard Law School, Stanford University, Columbia University, the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, the University of California, Berkeley, Washington State University, Northwestern University, along with the Palestine Center, the National Press Club, the Naval Postgraduate School, and other university campuses, churches, libraries, and civic organizations.[7] Its website carries information and allegations about Israel and Palestine from a wide variety of sources.
The organization's stated goal is "to inform and educate the American public on issues of major significance that are unreported, underreported, or misreported in the American media," going on to say: "It is the goal of If Americans Knew to inform the American public accurately about [Israel-Palestine]. Most of all, it is to inform Americans about our enormous, and too often invisible, personal connection to it.".[8]
If Americans Knew maintains that US media are consistently Israeli-centric in their reporting, finding that a great many of the journalists reporting on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have family and personal ties to the Israeli military."[9] The organization has conducted statistical studies on a variety of news organizations,[10] finding that they reported on Israeli deaths at rates many times greater than they reported on Palestinian deaths.[10]
If Americans Knew holds that United States' support of Israel should be reduced on the grounds that it is not in American interest[11] — that it interferes with American relations with the oil-producing nations, costs American taxpayers billions, is increasingly imperiling American lives, and prevents peace.
Executive Director Alison Weir writes that ending U.S. military aid to Israel would "help bring peace to the Middle East, build a safer world and alleviate massive misery."[12] Another article concludes: "...US aid to Israel has destabilized the Middle East; propped up a national system based on ethnic and religious discrimination; enabled unchecked aggression that has, on occasion, been turned against Americans themselves; funded arms industries that compete with American companies; supported a pattern of brutal dispossession that has created hatred of the US; and resulted in continuing conflict that last year took the lives of 384 Palestinians and 13 Israelis, and that in the past seven and a half years has cost the lives of more than 982 Palestinian children and 119 Israeli children. By providing massive funding to Israel, no matter what it does, American aid is empowering Israeli supremacists who believe in a never-ending campaign of ethnic cleansing; while disempowering Israelis who recognize that policies of morality, justice, and rationality are the only road to peace."[13]
The organization published a handout defending Helen Thomas's comments when she contended that Jews should "get the hell out of Palestine" and go back to "Germany, Poland, America, and everywhere else." When Israel partisans attacked Thomas, Weir wrote: "Many commentators evince particular anger at Thomas's inclusion of Germany and Poland as places to which Israeli colonists should return, suggesting that Hitler is still in control and waiting to pounce.
"The happy fact is, however, that World War II and the Nazi holocaust ended well over half a century ago. In Poland today there is a vibrant Jewish revival with a 10-foot tall Menorah being lit in the center of Warsaw during Hanukah, and Germany has become, according to the New York Times, 'a country where Jews want to live.' In fact, in recent years more Jews have chosen to immigrate to Germany than to Israel." [14]
Weir also suggested that the outrage against Thomas was disproportionate, given the fact that so few of the writers had condemned Israel's far more serious actions, writing: "In Thomas's lifetime Israel has ethnically cleansed over a million people, replaced them with colonists from around the world, committed dozens of massacres, tortured thousands of people, killed and maimed untold numbers of children, mangled limbs, and committed outrages on women, old people, the weak and the infirm.
"It has assassinated people throughout the world, invaded numerous countries, spied on the U.S., killed and injured 200 American servicemen (the anniversary is this week), and tortured and imprisoned Americans. All while receiving more American money than any other country on earth."[14]
The site's homepage shows charts comparing the number of children killed from both sides since year 2000; it also shows the number of killed and injured people from both sides.[15]
It asserts that U.S. support of Israel has long been driven by lobbying on behalf of a foreign government, often via AIPAC, over the objections of State Department and Pentagon experts,[16] and in recent years by the efforts of a "growing number of individuals with close ties to Israel (known as neoconservatives)" in high-level U.S. Government positions.[11]
If Americans Knew published a study critical of The New York Times coverage of Israeli and Palestinian deaths, and met with then New York Times Public Editor Daniel Okrent to discuss their study.[2][17] In subsequent column Okrent mentioned the meeting but dismissed IAK's conclusions.[18]
The Anti-Defamation League has criticized IAK's connections to the Council for the National Interest (of which IAK's board member Paul Findley is a founder) for disseminating what it considers to be anti-Israeli propaganda and for defending what it considers anti-semitic statements made by others in the media [19]
The Anti-Defamation League has called If Americans Knew one of several "anti-Israel organization[s]",[20] and further asserts that "Weir's criticism of Israel has, at times, crossed the line into anti-Semitism." They cited Weir's use of a quotation by Israel Shahak that characterized beliefs of certain Israelis as "such a ruthless and supremacist faith."[21] Weir herself stated that she considered this quoted characterization as not pertaining to the mainstream of Judaism,[22] and has demanded that the ADL correct what she termed "defamatory and inaccurate statements."[23] The ADL voiced concern about an article written by board member Paul Findley in which he blamed America's relationship with Israel for the September 11 Attacks.[24]
Andy Newman, in an Op-ed in The Guardian, stated that "an article by Alison Weir... defends the unsubstantiated and implausible claims made by the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet about Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinians in Gaza to harvest their organs. Weir implied, with no evidence, that Israel is at the centre of international organ smuggling. She then explicitly argued that the medieval "blood libel" – that Jews kill Christian children – has a basis in fact."[25] The 'Aftonbladet claims' refer to Donald Boström's accusations of Israeli organ harvesting. Weir responded in a letter to the editor, stating: "I quoted a speech on international organ trafficking by Dr Nancy Scheper-Hughes – Chancellor's professor of medical anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley, the founder of Organ Watch, and the world's foremost expert on organ trafficking – in which she stated: 'Israel is at the top. It has tentacles reaching out worldwide.'"
Her letter in the Guardian continued: "My article contains considerable additional information on Israeli organ trafficking and its subsidy by the Israeli government, many of its 37 citations from Israeli media. Perhaps for Mr Newman this constitutes 'no evidence'."[26] She added that, at the end of one[27] of her two articles on Israeli organ trafficking[27] she had included a short section in which she quoted Israeli media reports that a prominent Israeli professor of medieval Jewish history had published a book on the subject, referring to Ariel Toaff's book, which had argued that the medieval blood libel may have had a basis in purported medieval Jewish ritual murders.[27]
If Americans Knew has been lauded by the liberal[28] media monitoring organization Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR).[29]
Weir was given honorary membership in the Phi Alpha Literary Society at Illinois College in 2004, the award citing her as "Courageous journalist-lecturer on behalf of human rights. The first woman to receive an honorary membership in Phi Alpha history."[30]
The New York Times reported about a speech given by Weir to approximately 300 people in Greenwich, Connecticut: "When the speech ended, Ms. Weir was met with thunderous applause, and across the room there was a widespread sense of satisfaction that someone was saying what needed to be said."[31]
