In a sidebar introduction to Ketcham's piece, the editors write:
Yes, when it comes to Israel and the U.S. press we are familiar with obstructions to raising edgy topics. That's why we're glad we have CounterPunch, to welcome good reporters like Ketcham in from the cold.
But more importantly, Christopher Ketcham has put together a phenomenal synthesis of the highly suspicious Israeli intelligence activities in the U.S. on and before 9/11. An enormous network of "art students", many of whom were located just blocks from the (alleged) 9/11 hijackers; and a small group of five or six Israeli intelligence operatives who were witnessed by many celebrating on a rooftop, with surveillance equipment, very soon after the first plane hit the Trade Center.
Normally, we'd throw caution to the wind, copyright-wise, and reprint an article like this in its entirety, but this particular issue is, thus far, for paying CounterPunch subscribers. We urge you to email or call Counterpunch to see about purchasing this single issue, as it will be a valuable part of any 9/11 library. Meanwhile, we bring you some important chunks.The running of this story shows how, as the tonnage of evidence begins to weigh on people's minds, the media is creeping into covering the serious 9/11 questions. Many who have publically derided the "truth movement" — like Counterpunch co-editor Alexander Cockburn — now deliver the goods on back roads, or with pretexts that trump their previous diatribes. Had the focus of Christopher… Continue reading

The trouble with thinking 9/11 was an inside job staged by George W. Bush & Co. is that it defies belief any president might be capable of such an iniquitous crime against his own people.
Yet, subsequent Bush actions, such as lying the nation into war, makes one wonder if the man didn't earlier create the 9/11 massacres to justify his aggressions. After all, his record reveals him to be a serial liar, warmonger, tyrant, torturer, and usurper of civil liberties. Here are a few illegal actions that betray what Bush is really about.
# Bush lied the U.S. into what former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan called an "illegal" war on Iraq. This conflict has killed 650,000 civilians, wounded over a million more, drove nearly 2-million from their country, and turned life into a living hell for the rest. The death toll there is already equal to about 240 WTC massacres, yet Bush persists in waging the war.
# Bush okayed $1.5-trillion for new weapons' research including grisly weapons that would thrill mad scientists, such as sound waves that crush a victim's internal organs. Another gem is "rods from god" to hurl tungsten poles down from Earth orbit down upon its victims at 7,200 miles an hour, striking with the atomic fury. He is illegally militarizing space. These are not the actions of a humanist.
# Bush has allowed illegal radioactive ammunition fired in Afghanistan and Iraq that poison civilian populations and U.S.… Continue reading

Debunking 9/11 Myths: Why Conspiracy Theories Can't Stand Up to the Facts
by The Editors of Popular Mechanics (Author), John McCain (Foreword), David Dunbar (Editor), Brad Reagan (Editor)
Publisher: Hearst (August 15, 2006)
Maybe the life of the nation is at stake, and maybe it isn't. Maybe this is a time of unprecedented tyranny, and maybe it is simply what was just out of view on the same road we have been traveling for the last seventy years. Maybe this was a sea change and a quantum leap, or maybe it was neither. Regardless of the proper description of the event and this time in history, 9/11 has become an opportunity for enormous hope, great change, and an entirely new perspective.
Whether one is inclined to indulge, or even consider, the theoretical justifications for the massacre of 9/11 (the need to awaken a sleeping nation to the requirements of global hegemony), or not, the nature of the act and its perpetrators are matters of importance from every conceivable standpoint. The progress of the debate about that nature and those perpetrators has been enhanced by Debunking 9/11 Myths, edited by David Dunbar and Brad Reagan of Popular Mechanics magazine. Maybe not in ways the writers had hoped.
To the world at large, to the hungry masses yearning for points to be refuted or sustained, answers given, questions acknowledged if not answered, the appearance of a book by the mainstream which purports to establish, as the subtitle declares, "… Continue reading
September 11, 2001: The French Knew Much About It
By Guillaume Dasquié
Le Monde
Monday 16 April 2004
It's an impressive mass of documents. From a distance, one would imagine a doctoral thesis. On closer inspection: nothing of the kind. Red stamps "Confidential-Defense" and "Strictly National Usage" on every page. At the top on the left, a royal blue logo: that of the DGSE, Direction générale des services extérieurs [General Directorate for Foreign Services], the French secret services. In total, 328 classified pages. Notes, reports, syntheses and summaries, maps, graphs, organization charts, satellite photos. All exclusively devoted to al-Qaeda, its leaders, its seconds-in-command, its hide-outs and training camps. Also to its financial supports. Nothing less than the fundamentals of the DGSE reports compiled between July 2000 and October 2001. A veritable encyclopedia.
At the end of several months of investigation of this very special documentation, we contacted DGSE headquarters. And on April 3, the present chief of staff, Emmanuel Renoult, received us there, within the confines of the Tourelles garrison in Paris. After thumbing through the 328 pages that we set on his desk, he can't keep himself from deploring such a leak, all the while allowing us to understand that the packet represents virtually the entirety of DGSE production on the subject for this crucial period. On the other hand, it was impossible to draw the least comment from him on the substance of the material. Too sensitive.
It's true that these secret services chronicles about al-Qaeda, with their various revelations, raise many questions.…Continue reading
Democrats in America are evenly divided on the question of whether George W. Bush knew about the 9/11 terrorist attacks in advance. Thirty-five percent (35%) of Democrats believe he did know, 39% say he did not know, and 26% are not sure.
Republicans reject that view and, by a 7-to-1 margin, say the President did not know in advance about the attacks. Among those not affiliated with either major party, 18% believe the President knew and 57% take the opposite view.
Overall, 22% of all voters believe the President knew about the attacks in advance. A slightly larger number, 29%, believe the CIA knew about the attacks in advance. White Americans are less likely than others to believe that either the President or the CIA knew about the attacks in advance. Young Americans are more likely than their elders to believe the President or the CIA knew about the attacks in advance.
However, just 8% of voters say the CIA was Very Truthful before the War in Iraq. Another 33% believe the CIA was Somewhat Truthful. Most, 52%, believe the CIA was Not Very Truthful or Not at All Truthful before the War.
Still, 57% have a favorable opinion of the CIA. Thirty-six percent (36%) have an unfavorable view.
Former CIA Director George Tenet doesn't fare so well. He is viewed favorably by 29% of voters and unfavorably by 49%.
Just 12% have followed news stories about Tenet's new book Very Closely. Another 29% have followed the stories Somewhat… Continue reading

In late August 2001, when aggressive presidential action might have changed the course of U.S. history, CIA Director George Tenet made a special trip to Crawford, Texas, to get George W. Bush to focus on an imminent threat of a spectacular al-Qaeda attack only to have the conversation descend into meaningless small talk.
Alarmed CIA officials already had held an extraordinary meeting with then-national security adviser Condoleezza Rice on July 10 to lay out the accumulating evidence of an impending attack and had delivered on Aug. 6 a special "Presidential Daily Brief" to Bush entitled "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US."
"A few weeks after the Aug. 6 PDB was delivered, I followed it to Crawford to make sure the President stayed current on events," Tenet wrote in his memoir, At the Center of the Storm. "This was my first visit to the ranch. I remember the President graciously driving me around the spread in his pickup and my trying to make small talk about the flora and the fauna, none of which were native to Queens," where Tenet had grown up.
Tenet's trip to Crawford — like the July 10 meeting with Rice and the Aug. 6 briefing paper for Bush — failed to shock the administration out of its lethargy nor elicit the emergency steps that the CIA and other counterterrorism specialists wanted.
While Tenet and Bush made small talk about "the flora and the fauna," al-Qaeda operatives put the finishing touches on their plans.…Continue reading
Even I question the 'truth' about 9/11
By Robert Fisk
Published: 25 August 2007
Each time I lecture abroad on the Middle East, there is always someone in the audience — just one — whom I call the "raver". Apologies here to all the men and women who come to my talks with bright and pertinent questions — often quite humbling ones for me as a journalist — and which show that they understand the Middle East tragedy a lot better than the journalists who report it. But the "raver" is real. He has turned up in corporeal form in Stockholm and in Oxford, in Sao Paulo and in Yerevan, in Cairo, in Los Angeles and, in female form, in Barcelona. No matter the country, there will always be a "raver".
Robert Fisk, award winning journalist, for the Independent in London; described by the NY Times as "the most famous foreign correspondent in Britain"; frequent contributor to Amy Goodman's Democracy Now, a man so famous he has become a verb in his own lifetime, and he's is a 9/11 truther!
In this article, Fisk complains about the ill-behaved 9/11 truthers who shout out questions about the 9/11 cover up at various speaking venues, but this complaint may be just to give himself some cover. Without that shield, he would be immediately denounced and marginalized, (he may be anyway) but he goes on to mention the dirth of plane parts at the Pentagon,… Continue reading

Evidence Suggests CIA Purposefully Spiked Investigations
Dear Members of the Press:
A grave miscarriage of justice is afoot. After years being withheld the Administration finally is forced to release the CIA's IG Report on 9/11. While earlier news accounts said the report would be released in early September it was released in the middle of a Congressional recess, in the middle of a Summer break, thus insuring it will not receive the attention it deserves. Worse still is the conclusion in most press reports since its release that bolsters the official narrative, i.e., that all the myriad failures were simply due to 'systemic failure' and/or incompetence.
The circumstantial evidence running contrary to this conclusion is compelling and convincing.
It appears that Al-Hazmi and Al-Mihdhar were being protected by higher ups in the CIA. Respected author Joe Trento has reported that they were working for Saudi Intelligence. Others reported the two were removed from the watchlist two days before 9/11. I don't know if either was the case. It is clear, however, that there was a concerted effort to protect them, similar in some respects to the way authorities in FBI HQ refused to allow Rowley and company in Minnesota to go into Mousaoui's laptop computer or how higher ups prevented Robert Wright in Chicago from going after the money trail of Yassin Al-Kadi (Qadi) who financed the software company Ptech and the terrorist group Hamas and who was later named a "Specially… Continue reading

It has been nearly three years since I wrote a letter to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), about their World Trade Center investigation.[1] Shortly after firing me for writing this letter, my former employer, Underwriters Laboratories (UL), began making some suspicious statements.
These included the following three claims related to the question of whether or not UL performed fire-resistance testing of materials used in the WTC. [2]
One might wonder why UL felt the need to claim that there was "no evidence" if they simply do not do such work. But what is the truth about UL's involvement in testing materials for the WTC, in terms of the fire resistance the buildings required, but apparently did not have according to the government's fire-based "collapse" hypothesis?
UL's first claim
Apart from steel column assemblies, there were several other materials used in the WTC towers… Continue reading

There's a wonderful optical illusion which involves a graphic of a ballerina spinning around on one leg. It's called:
"The Spinning Silhouette Optical Illusion"
This illusion elucidates a very important principle concerning subjective reality, and helps to illustrate a point about the vastly differing views people can hold about events such as 9/11. Some people who look at the spinning figure will first affirm that she is bouncing on her left leg while twirling in a clockwise direction. Others may avow that she is instead bouncing on her right leg and spinning in a counterclockwise direction. Indeed, you can have many people looking at this animated graphic at the same time and not agree as to what is happening. This idea is not really foreign to many people who have made the journey from one belief about 9/11 to its diametrical opposite.
First – we must try and deconstruct the illusion and find out what is going on. When you look at a silhouette of a figure it is not possible to determine if it is facing you, or facing away from you. There is no depth to the figure, it's just an outline – our Left/Right designation of what we visually perceive will set the stage for our belief of what follows. If the human cut-out is interpreted to be facing you then you will assume it is her left foot touching the ground, and vice versa if not. The information is not sufficient when viewing a black and white silhouette, our brain makes an assumption at first glance and then proceeds toward a logical eventuality based upon that assumption.…Continue reading

9/11 family member and "Jersey Girl" Patty Casazza has just revealed that whistleblowers told her that — before 9/11 — the government knew the day, the type of attack, and the targets.
Why is this important? Because, previously, whistleblowers such as Sibel Edmonds had given more vague information on the government's foreknowledge. For example, Ms. Edmonds had hinted that the government only knew of a general timeframe for the attacks, and that they had a list of potential targets, on which the World Trade Center was just one of many potential targets.
Casazza further stated that these whistleblowers saw how Sibel Edmonds was being harrassed and gagged, and were fearful that the same thing would happen to them. So they approached the Jersey Girls to ask them to demand the 9/11 Commission subpoena the whistleblowers. The Jersey Girls tried to bring the whistleblowers before the 9/11 Commission, and the Commissioners agreed, but then never let the whistleblowers testify, let alone subpoena them.
Why is this important? Because defenders of the official government story have argued that 9/11 couldn't have been an inside job or else whistleblowers would have come forward. Ms. Casaza confirms what many have said: there are a lot of 9/11… Continue reading

Nathan Janes, a Port Clinton native, painted "With Liberty and Justice for All." He describes the painting as an expression of America's unwillingness to question the findings of the 9/11 Commission Report.
Nathan Janes' painting could create some controversy, but all he wants to do is get to the truth.
Janes, a Port Clinton native, recently completed a painting of a dog wearing a blindfold with "911" and "truth" above and below the dog.
Janes said the painting represents America's inability to question the events surrounding the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
"It's kind of hard for people to question whether the government lied or had a part in it," he said. "I'm not say anything's a hoax. I'm saying there's information that's not been released or told."
Janes started researching conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 last summer and said he felt he was just getting more questions and not enough answers.
*"I just felt kind of compelled to because the issue needs to be out there," Janes said. "People might find themselves asking the same questions I'm asking."
Janes, a 1997 graduate of Port Clinton High School, said the "all-seeing eye" and the silhouettes of three B-2 stealth bombers represent the government's power over the people in modern times.
Jeannie Radloff, a retired art teacher at Port Clinton High School, said Janes has always had artistic talent.
"He was an art machine," Radloff said. "He's high energy. He has a… Continue reading

These explosive and revealing comments about 9/11 have been completely ignored by the Mainstream Media. While talking about the 9/11 commission, 9/11 family member Patty Casazza reveals that FBI translator and whistleblower Sibel Edmonds had incriminating insider information about the 9/11 attacks:
The Government knew… other than the exact moment… they knew the date, and the method of which the attacks were supposed to come … And none of this made it to mainstream media. None of it made it into the Commission.
And yet, again, all of your Representatives, on the day that the Commission book came out, were on their pulpits saying, "What a fabulous job this Commission has done. A real service to this nation." And it was anything but a service. It was a complete fabrication.
Family member Patty Casazza is not alone in her belief that we do not have the whole truth about 9/11 .
The lack of Mainstream news coverage of these views is very apparent. Fox News in a secret memo implicitly admits that there is a problem with the 'official story' of 9/11:
"The so-called 9/11 Commission has already been meeting. In fact, this is its eighth session. The fact that former Clinton and both former and current Bush administration officials are testifying gives it a certain tension, but this is not ' what did he know and when did he know it' stuff. Don't turn this into Watergate."
In fact, a similar… Continue reading
Title: "Transcript Of Japanese Parliament's 911 Testimony"
Author: Benjamin Fulford
January 14, 2008
Student Researchers: Kyle Corcoran, Alan Scher, Bill Gibbons, and Elizabeth
Faculty Evaluator: Mickey S. Huff, MA
Testimony in the Japanese parliament, broadcast live on Japanese television in January 2008, challenged the premise and validity of the Global War on Terror. Parliament member Yukihisa Fujita insisted that an investigation be conducted into the war's origin: the events of 9/11.
In a parliament Defense and Foreign Affairs Committee session held to debate the ethics of renewing Japan's "anti-terror law," which commits Japan to providing logistical support for coalition forces operating in Afghanistan, Fujita opened the session by stating, "I would like to talk about the origin of this war on terrorism, which was the attacks of 9/11, . . . When discussing these anti-terror laws we should ask ourselves, what was 9/11? And what is terrorism?"
Fujita pointed out that, "So far the only thing the government has said is that we think it was caused by al-Qaeda because President Bush told us so.
We have not seen any real proof that it was al-Qaeda." He reminded parliament that twenty-four Japanese citizens were killed on 9/11, yet the mandate of a
criminal investigation by the Japanese government never followed. "This is a crime so surely an investigation needs to be carried out," said Fujita
(Censored 2008, #16).
Fujita went on extensively to ask "about the suspicious information being uncovered and the doubts people worldwide are having about… Continue reading

Sibel Edmonds is the FBI translator turned whistleblower who decided to go public late in 2002 and has been seeking to tell her story about high level corruption in the United States government involving Turkey and Israel. What makes her story particularly compelling is that the corruption relates to the theft and sale of United States defense secrets, most particularly nuclear technology. Sibel obtained her information while translating Turkish language telephone intercepts directed against several Turkish lobbying groups who had contact with senior officials in the Bush Administration, both at the Pentagon and in the State Department. Many of the officials involved are apparently the same neoconservatives who cooked the books to enable the rush to war against Iraq and who are continuing to urge more wars in the Middle East, most notably against Iran and Syria. Several of them are close allies of leading Republican presidential candidate John McCain.
To stop Sibel from telling her story, then Attorney General John Ashcroft subjected her to a state secrets privilege gag order after her appearance on CBS's 60 Minutes in October 2002 that not only forbade her providing details of her employment with FBI but also made the ban retroactive so that anything relating to her case would be considered a state secret. Edmonds had been discouraged by her experience with CBS as her most important points wound up on the cutting room floor. Then came the gag order, which she has observed while working assiduously to get… Continue reading

Calallen donates blood by gallons
CORPUS CHRISTI - Calallen High school is the bloodiest school in the Coastal Bend -- which will earn it an international award Tuesday for having donated enough blood last year to fill 16 5-gallon buckets.
The school's junior and senior class, presently totaling 550 students, along with faculty and administration donated 669 pints of blood between May 2006 and May 2007 -- more than 44 other area high schools. Calallen High School has participated in the Coastal Bend Blood Center's High School Challenge for about 20 years, and it's the third consecutive year it was first in total volume of blood donations.
Sean Hoelscher, a 2007 graduate, gave at each of the school's five blood drives in the past year. During baseball season he donated in the mornings so he could practice later in the day.
"It's good to give back to the community and you get to miss a little bit of class time," said Hoelscher, chuckling. "Seriously, one day you might be the one who needs the blood and hope someone does it for you."
On Tuesday, the school will receive the American Association of Blood Banks Award of Merit in the Education category, vying against schools serving 1,800 blood bank institutions in the U.S. and 80 other countries. Winners are chosen based on years of participation, percentage of donation and ability to gain community support for blood drives.
"This international award is the first for the Coastal Bend Blood Center," said Leticia Mondragon, center spokeswoman.
The school was motivated by a staff member's 2-year-old grandchild and other students' family members who needed blood, said Patti Lee, head nurse in charge of the challenge drive.
"These students knew the crisis," Lee said, "and they felt great helping out, especially realizing that they are truly giving the gift of life to people they know."
Lee will travel with Principal Yvonne Neth and representatives of the blood center to Anaheim, Calif., to receive the award at the association's international conference.
"We encourage civic commitment," said Assistant Principal Lynn Dodge. "The bloodmobile is an easy way to do that."
Lee divulged one secret that helps the school maximize blood donations.
"More than a dozen students and staff donated double red," she said. "They can donate up to two units at the same time and be replenished with saline, but they can't donate again for 16 weeks instead of the usual eight weeks."

I purchased mask to replace a broken Hawaii 2 mask. purchased several for me and my boys. for my face I found that the frame of the mask would press against my my face over the bridge of the nose, especially in more than 15 feet of water. no adjustment could fix this. my boys did not experience the same problem. I am looking for a new hawaii 2 mask again.

Comments about XS Scuba Fusion 2 Mask MA200:
I bought this mask on sale because I need to test out low volume masks; this fits me well enough to use so I will. It is one of 2 low-volume masks that have ever fit me (Hawaii 2 is the other). I wish the seal were better for me but cannot say that means it's low quality: most low volume masks are unusable because the frame hits my nose. My use is 99% underwater hockey.

My subscription will expire on 1/12/13, but I may renew in May or for the summer. I am a down-to-earth girl who wants a guy who enjoys spending time with me, whether it be going out or staying in, but I also need some time to myself. I would like a guy who still enjoys going out to dinner and a movie. I would love to find a guy who's still a gentleman and will open doors for me - even the car door. I want a guy who likes to spend some time outdoors doing things like running, walking, cycling, hiking, grilling, or just sitting on the patio. Since I am a dog-lover, the guy I'm looking for must like dogs. I will be honest and say that I have to feel a spark within the first few dates or it just won't work for me. I know looks aren't everything, but I must feel a connection.

HOUSTON (AP) — Jacksonville backup quarterback Chad Henne picked apart the Houston Texans' highly regarded defense for about three quarters on Sunday.
Texans' D comes through vs Jags, but Lions next
The Texans clamped down at the end, finally, and that's what defensive coordinator Wade Phillips will take away from Houston's dramatic 43-37 victory.
Houston (9-1) gave up 458 yards and four touchdown passes, a stunning reversal for a defense that had allowed only one touchdown in the previous three games. The defense returned to form just in time to allow Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson to rally the Texans to their first overtime win at Reliant Stadium.
"The most important stat is winning," Phillips said. "The next most important thing with a football team is how you play under pressure."
Houston's coaches didn't spend much time dwelling on the defensive mistakes in Sunday's game. The Texans have a quick turnaround before they face Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson and the NFL's second-ranked offense in Detroit (4-6) in the early game on Thanksgiving.
Calvin Johnson leads the league in yards receiving (1,117) and in receptions covering at least 20 yards (24), an ominous sign after the Jaguars completed passes of 63, 67, 39 and 81 yards on Sunday. And Houston's secondary could be short-handed in Detroit, with top cornerback Johnathan Joseph nursing a sore hamstring. Joseph sat out practice on Monday and Tuesday and will decide on Thursday if he's ready to play.
"Am I helping or hurting the team?" he said. "For me, it's just making sure I can go out there and hold up to the task and do my job completely at a top level, where there wouldn't be any dropoff in the level of play."
Houston's defense started the Jaguars game looking just fine. The Texans led 7-0 three minutes into it, and safety Danieal Manning sacked Blaine Gabbert and forced a fumble. Gabbert left the game with a bruised right elbow and didn't return.
But Henne found Blackmon for a 63-yard reception later in the first quarter, then threw to tight end Marcedes Lewis for the tying touchdown. He completed 13 of 17 passes for 250 yards through three quarters and started the fourth with an 81-yard touchdown pass to Blackmon.
"We were trying hard the whole game," defensive end J.J. Watt said. "We just weren't having much success. You keep trying things and trying things and eventually, something starts to work."

IBEROSTAR Paraíso Beach
Our guests reviewsIBEROSTAR Paraíso Beach
Paul Greenwood says: 12 months
Our whole stay was excellent and we would all highly recommend this hotel.
"We recently stated at the Iberostar Parasio Beach Hotel in Mexico, the hotel was amazing, and resulted in one of the best family holidays we've ever had. The grounds are stunning with varied wildlife, from Peacocks, Lizards, Parrots and Turtles which the kids loved. The gardens are kept immaculate by a rawly hard working team. The food was excellent as well with amazing choices at the buffet, especially the choices of Mexican food. We visited a number of the specialist restraunts and the Japanese and Steak restraunts are well worth a visit. The bars were great with an abundance of choices on the cocktail lists and the bar staff were always ready to make anything you wanted, our favourite bar was the lobby bar which was really relaxing both during the day and in the evening. We arranged various tours through the hotel staff which made the experience all the more special, with trips to Chichen Itza, Xel Ha, and a day swimming with Whale Sharks. A special mention has to go to Ishmael in the lobby bar who was always pleasant and made the best Mojitos, Alex who went out of his way to make sure all our trips went without a hitch and Mario and Karla part of the entertainment team who made our young daughter Carys feel so special every evening at the carousel in the shopping centre, I would also like to thank all the other staff too, as they couldn't do enough to help and always had a smile whatever time of day you saw them. "Rating: 9,0
Jeanette Hanratty says: 12 months
Well done to the Management and staff of the Iberostar Paraiso Beach, Playa del Carmen, Mexico
"The Management of the Iberostar Paraiso Beach, Playa del Carmen should be very proud of their staff. The receptionists, Bellboys, maids, waiters we could not have been treated better. We have travelled a lot i.e. Kenya, Thailand to name but a few and the staff of the Iberostar Paraiso Beach, Playa del Carmen we among the best we encountered. Their professionalism, friendliness was second to none. Once again the management should be very proud of their staff."Rating: 10,0
Isabelle says: about 1 year
Very nice family vacations!!!!
"Our Vacations were absolutely great! Food is excellent, drinks also! Very clean resort. People from the resort very nice and polite. Negative part: Very small section of beach. It's share with 4 other part of Iberostar but we cannot be served when We go out of the paraiso beach... We should be allowed to have the use of the 3 at least. The food in the a la carte restaurant is just ok.... We were expecting lot better... We preferred the food at the Buffet ... It should not be like that! But , other than that , we really enjoy our family Vacations!"Rating: 9,0
Jane says: about 1 year
The restaurants and buffets were fabulous as well as the wait staff. The hotel is lovely and well maintained. The beach and pools are also very nice.
"This was our 1st time in Rivera Maya and our 2nd time at an Iberostar. Our stay was very nice. The resort is quite large which made it difficult for getting around. The golf carts were only available some of the time. There are only 2 issues we had. The first night there were spiders and ants in our room. Our children were bit several times. We notified staff and the room was treated immediately. Secondly, the reception/front desk staff were not very friendly or efficient. After asking 2 different times for Easter Sunday church service times they were given incorrectly so we were late. (the church is on Iberostar property) Just frustrating, and the staff just blew us off. Concierge is rude as well. "Rating: 10,0
Marie Claire David says: about 1 year
"I thought the hotel and the grounds were very beautiful, lots of lush vegetation and the workers were great! The service was excellent! The only thing that I didn't like was the beach. The water was oily and it was very noisy because of the great number of sea-coos going back and forth and other motorboat activities. I only swam at the beach once because of that problem. The Brazilian restaurant was excellent but the Mexican and the Meditterean were not great. I preferred the buffet where I could choose Mexican specialties better."Rating: 9,0

City commissioners plan to vote Monday on a proposal to raze the Keller Building on West Shoreline Drive.
"It's necessary that it comes down now," commissioner Wes Poole said. "The building has reached the point where we haven't had any viable offers to utilize it. It is deteriorating from exposure to the weather, and we have made a decision that it's going to come down."
Keller Building bits
• Sandusky city commissioners plan to vote Monday on a proposal to demolish the Keller Building.
• The demolition costs, including environmental work, are estimated at $550,000.
• At the earliest, the condemned West Shoreline Drive building will come down in 2014.
If a majority of commissioners approve the vote, officials will then seek out contractors and obtain project costs. The condemned structure could fall as early as 2014, Sandusky engineer Aaron Klein said. Engineers are still working with project consultants to hammer out a construction timeline.
Klein, in a memo to commissioners, estimated the demolition cost and related environmental work would run about $550,000. A bond would cover $400,000, while city funds would cover the remaining $150,000.
Earlier this year, city commissioners agreed to borrow up to $2.7 million in bonds to help pay for the Keller Building's demolition.
In the past, city officials have leveraged these funds to make various improvements in this area, such as:
• Building a public walkway around the Chesapeake Lofts.
• Repairing the emergency breakwall.
• Establishing the Paper District Marina.
In the recent past, city officials have addressed some Keller Building concerns. They spent $19,000 in September 2012 to tear down the crumbling chimney, then $26,000 in April for a preliminary demolition plan.
Meanwhile, a portion of West Shoreline Drive by the Keller Building will remain closed until the building comes down, Klein said.
Fears about safety risks peaked in February 2012, when a brick fell from the building's chimney and plummeted several stories onto West Shoreline Drive. No one was injured, but the situation still concerns nearby residents, who say they'd be pleased to see the building torn down.
"It's a deathtrap," said West Shoreline Drive resident Bob Gentzel, who represents a group of residents at the nearby Chesapeake Lofts.
Since February 2012, officials blocked off the area, a main corridor leading from the Paper District Marina to the downtown business district.
Another mystery revolves around the building's iconic water tower.
"We have had phone calls requesting to have it and to buy it," Klein said. "At this point, it's going to be the contractor's responsibility."

A quick google search turns up this gem: Air Ball Comes to Olympic Stadium In Montreal By JOSEPH DURSO, SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TIMES Published: April 6, 1988 LEAD: Prof. Bob Moore of the Physics Department of McGill University calculated today that Darryl Strawberrys skyrocket home run on opening day would have carried about 525 feet if it hadnt struck the rim of lights just below the roof in Olympic Stadium. If you click the link you'll get the full story. As absurd as it sounds I think 525 feet underestimates that shot. It hit the top of Olympic Stadium and it looked like it was still on the way up. Surely the most monstrous shot I've ever seen. Look at this skinny man (found on flickr) - imagine if he had a cousin named Yuri what he might have accomplished. www.metspolice.com The Mets Police at www.metspolice.com

Christmas Truce 1914 – 100th Anniversary - Page 1
This year we remember the centenary of the World War I. Most of us know how it started and how the killing of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife became the direct reason of war. However, not many of us are aware that there was also a Christmas Truce in 1914 – the first year of the war. Through the week leading up to Christmas, parties of German and British soldiers began to exchange seasonal greetings and songs between their trenches; on occasion, the tension was reduced to the point that individuals would walk across to talk to their opposite numbers bearing gifts. On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, many soldiers from both sides—as well as, to a lesser degree, from French units—independently ventured into "no man's land", where they mingled, exchanging food and souvenirs. As well as joint burial ceremonies, several meetings ended in carol-singing. Troops from both sides were also friendly enough to play games of football with one another, in one of the truce's most enduring images.
How did the Christmas Truce actually happen? In the lead up to Christmas 1914, there were several other peace initiatives. The Open Christmas Letter was a public message for peace addressed "To the Women of Germany and Austria", signed by a group of 101 British women suffragettes at the end of 1914 as the first Christmas of World War I approached. Also Pope Benedict XV, on 7 December 1914, had begged for an official truce between the warring governments. He asked "that the guns may fall silent at least upon the night the angels sang." However, this attempt was officially rebuffed.
After five months of war on the western front, and the battles of the Marne and the Aisne, fighting changed into a stalemate, as neither of the sides (the Allies and the German) could get control and was willing to give ground. By November, it changed into continuous front line from the North Sea to the Swiss frontiers, which was occupied on both sided by armies in defensive positions. Because of this non-activity, the fraternisation started to appear. It was either passive inactivity or regular conversations, and even visits from one trench to another. In early November, first and short truces were recorded – short friendly visits from one army members to another, evening truces to recover the dead soldiers for burials, or truces enforced by adverse weather conditions.
Christmas Truce 1914 – 100th Anniversary - Page 2
The first truce started on Christmas Eve, 24 December 1914, when German troops began decorating the area around their trenches in the region of Ypres, Belgium, by placing candles on their trenches and on Christmas trees, then continued the celebration by singing Christmas carols. The British responded by singing carols of their own. The two sides continued by shouting Christmas greetings to each other. Soon thereafter, there were excursions across No Man's Land, where small gifts were exchanged, such as food, tobacco and alcohol, and souvenirs such as buttons and hats. The artillery in the region fell silent. The truce also allowed a breathing spell where recently killed soldiers could be brought back behind their lines by burial parties. Joint services were held. Such fraternisation carried risks, as some soldiers were shot by opposing forces. In many sectors, the truce lasted through Christmas night, but it continued until New Year's Day in others. There were also opponents to the Christmas Truce, such as Adolf Hitler, who at the time was a young corporal of the 16th Bavarian Reserve Infantry, and General Sir Horace Smith-Dorrien, commander of the British II Corps, who issued orders forbidding friendly communication with the opposing German troops.
On Christmas Day, football matches were played – mainly by men of the same nationality, but also by the troops from the opposing forces. One of these matches was played by the Lancashire Fusiliers, based near Le Touquet on the northern French coast, against German soldiers, using a ration tin as the "ball".
Unfortunately, the Christmas Truce did not have much effect on the next years of war. The following year, a few units again arranged ceasefires with their opponents over Christmas, such as in November 1915, when a Saxon unit briefly fraternised with a Liverpool battalion, but these truces were not nearly as widespread as in 1914; and this was, in part, due to strongly worded orders from the high commands of both sides prohibiting such fraternisation. In 1916, after the unprecedentedly bloody battles of the Somme and Verdun, and the beginning of widespread poison gas use, soldiers on both sides increasingly viewed the other side as less than human, and no more Christmas truces were sought.

This Christmas, let us take a minute to think about all soldiers killed in conflict and pray to the Almighty God to end all conflicts in the world. Let us remember all who gave their lives for others and for peace and let us never forget about their sacrifice.
There are some interesting facts about the Christmas Truce:

[Texas Revolution]. Broadside Condemning General Vicente Filisola for the Retreat of the Mexican Army....

Santa Anna's second in command, General Vicente Filisola, was left with the Herculean task of withdrawing all Mexican forces from Texas despite the opposition from his fellow officers. Ever the soldier, Filisola dutifully carried out the orders of his superior. Naturally, the Mexican government did not recognize the Treaties of Velasco, citing Santa Anna's status as a prisoner of war voided all authority he had to make any deals, and ordered Filisola to remain on any land previously taken, but it was too late. Filisola had ratified the treaties and Mexico's troops had already crossed the Nueces River. The exhausted army would continue its retreat until it crossed the Rio Grande, finally stopping at Matamoros.
On June 12, 1836, Filisola was replaced by General José de Urrea. Three days later, this broadside was issued by the Mexican government publicly condemning Filisola for his retreat in an effort to assuage the blow to "national honor." Titled "News From Texas," it begins with an official statement from the government which reads, in full and in translation:
"Just when we thought things were going so well with the war and we had practically succeeded in winning it, the vanguard division led by our General President was defeated and our General President captured. This demoralized the army and it retreated, thereby losing all the territory it had gained thus far. General Vicente Filisola blindly followed the General President's orders to retreat, and the Supreme Government forces arrived too late to prevent this from happening. It is hard to believe that our General President actually wanted the army to retreat, just when we were at the point of winning the war, as he was much too honorable for that. It is disgraceful that General Filisola ordered the retreat, knowing full well that he had the advantage. The enemy would interpret this as though our forces had fled the battle. But what is even more outrageous, is that General Filisola accepted the enemy's cunningly-crafted terms when he had no obligation to do so, unlike our General President, who was a prisoner in fear for his life and recognized the Texan rebels as a legitimate 'Government,' retreating from Texas without attempting a second assault that would certainly have been successful. The Government will bring General Filisola to justice and let the Courts decide his guilt or innocence.
"The Government is doing its duty to the public by publishing this news, terrible though it may be, in addition to the following strict resolutions it has considered itself honor-bound to pass. The Government believes there is yet time to bring matters to a successful conclusion.
"The meritorious conduct of Generals José Urrea and Francisco Vital Fernandez is worthy of recognition: the nation will be ever grateful for their distinguished service, for as long as it has subjects as faithful and devoted to the performance of their duties, the nation may rest in the knowledge that its glory remains intact."
Following the report are sixteen letters and military orders dated May through June 1836 regarding Filisola's actions with responses from his fellow generals and news of the appointment of General Urrea to replace Filisola as head of the army. In a response to a letter from Filisola, dated June 1, explaining to Urrea the plan of action, Urrea asks, "What will people say about us when they hear that the Mexican army failed to do anything but beat a cowardly and disgraceful retreat," exclaiming, "I do not approve of your actions, and have only followed your orders out of military obedience as you are my superior." Urrea is lauded by the Minister of War in a June 10 letter for "...refusing to follow the orders of a captured, though illustrious, general , and for informing us of the orders issued by another general who has apparently forgotten his duty to serve the nation's honor." In his response to the same letter Urrea received from Filisola, Fernandez writes to Filisola that he is "...extremely distressed by your retreat...[and] Regarding the agreement or treaty you mention, in spite of my continued regard for General Santa Anna, I am unable to comply with it...because the President would not have the authority to make this agreement without the participation of the Congress, even if he were free. I therefore refuse to release the prisoners until the Supreme Government makes an informed decision regarding them."
Several folds which have weakened in places, causing some separation at the intersections of the lower horizontal and vertical folds resulting in minor loss of paper and text. Edges are uneven with chipping in areas. There appears to be very light to moderate staining along the main vertical fold as well as the upper left corner; spots of foxing scattered throughout. There is a .5" x 9.75" section of paper removed from along the lower half of the left edge, but not affecting the text.
This is an extremely important Texas broadside. While not actually found in Streeter, Streeter 903 does bear the following note regarding this copy: "A reprint of the Diario was published in broadside form at Puebla in 1836 with the imprint, Puebla: 1836. Reimpresas en la oficina del Gobierno."
Upon his return to Mexico, Filisola published a written defense of his actions in Texas. He was brought up on charges and tried, but successfully defended his actions and was ultimately cleared of all wrongdoing. He was reinstated in 1841 and commanded one of the three divisions of the Mexican army during the Mexican War.
More Information:
According to Texas historian, Eugene C. Barker, in his article, "The San Jacinto Campaign," in the April 1901 issue of Quarterly of the Texas State Historical Association: "From San Jacinto Santa Anna was taken with the other prisoners to Velasco, and there on May 14 the treaty of that name was arranged between himself and the government of Texas. The public treaty provided, among other things, for a cessation of hostilities; the immediate withdrawal of the Mexican forces beyond the Rio Grande; the restoration of property taken by the Mexicans; and, finally, that the Texan army should not approach nearer than five leagues to the retreating Mexicans. At the same time a secret agreement was made with the captive dictator in which the government promised, in return for his solemn pledge to use his influence in securing an acknowledgment of Texan independence, to immediately liberate him and send him to Vera Cruz. On May 26th, General Filisola ratified the public treaty and fulfilled its provisions by abandoning Texas; but through the interference of the enraged army the Texan government was compelled to break the secret articles, and Santa Anna was detained a prisoner until late in 1836, when he was sent to Washington, D. C. Quite naturally he felt himself absolved from his promise to labor for Texan independence."

With its bay views from Point Loma to the Coronado Bridge, this upscale seafood house is just right for memorable evening. The romantic teak-paneled dining room and a deck that sits over the water are popular spots for visitor splurges and locals celebrating special occasions. Starters include smoked fish samplers or a chilled seafood platter with a half Maine lobster, Dungeness crab, clams, prawns, and oysters, shared with sips of champagne. The star among salad offerings is the Oregon Dungeness crab Louie. For mains, choose from mesquite-grilled Pacific Coast fresh fish or specialties like the Dover sole, zesty cioppino, or ink linguini with prawns and scallops. Do not confuse this with the tourist-oriented Fish Market downstairs, which can offer an uneven dining experience.

The crab cakes were tasty, but held lots of filling. So, not a good value. Wine by the glass is delivered in small glasses, so it too, it not a good value. The portions were small, but the salad was good. Our server was very attentive. The place was clean, but based upon what a basic lunch costs (about $100 with tip), we won't go back. (Plus you have to pay $0.25 for every 12 minutes of parking.)
No Thanks

Little Gringo is an American company dedicated to creating educational children's books in Portuguese. The company was founded by a Brazilian Mom, determined to teach Portuguese to her Little Gringa.
The company's founder, Ana Cristina Gluck, is also the graphic artist and author of the first collection "Palavras" (Words), which consists of four books: Alfabeto (Alphabet), Animais (Animals), Cores (Colors) and Números (Numbers).
The Palavras Collection is designed to help young children to learn their first words in Portuguese through association with realistic photographs. Each book includes carefully selected images, vibrant colors and a simple layout, allowing babies and toddlers to enjoy the pleasure of learning and discovery!
Ana Cristina Gluck was born and grew up in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. She moved to the United States in 1999, where she completed her college education, got married, and began a successful graphic design career in New York City. In early 2013 she became an Art Director.
Following the birth of her first daughter in 2011, Ana Cristina realized how important it was that she pass on her native language and culture to her children. However, she quickly learned that, within the United States, it was difficult to find educational children's books in Portuguese. As a result, she decided to create her own line of books and founded Little Gringo.
Ana Cristina plans to create additional children's books in Portuguese, as well as in other languages. She believes that bilingual children have advantages in life when it comes to education, professional career and relationships.

Lord Faulks said uploading sexually explicit pictures and videos of an ex-partner to the internet was "cowardly and despicable".
His comments came as peers pushed for a new clause in the Criminal Justice and Courts Bill to deal with the growing problem.
The campaign for new laws on the issue has been led in the House of Commons by former culture secretary Maria Miller, who this month gained the backing of Prime Minister David Cameron in her attempt to clamp down on the abuse.
Lord Faulks said: "The Government is carefully considering what more needs to be done about this very damaging behaviour."
