Fabio Capello's vision must still pass the final test
Related Articles
Published: 11 September 2009
For Simon Kuper, writing in the Financial Times, part of Capello's success can be attributed to his inability to speak good English. "It limits his opportunities for communicating with tabloids," he writes.
Continuing this theme, I've often thought that Capello's thick, dark, well-groomed hair must help to provide an aura of sophistication in a dressing room of young, body-conscious style icons. He just wouldn't be Capello if he was bald or grey. In fact, for a man of 63, his hair is luxuriant; he's a kind of Melvyn Bragg of football.
Yet, not so long ago, I and many others thought the appointment of Capello signified a final surrender by the Football Association, definitive acceptance that, after the debacle of Steve McClaren, the England team could not be coached by an Englishman. At the time of his appointment, Capello could speak no more than a few sentences in English - at least in public, at press conferences when he should have been communicating his urgent vision for renewal.
Listening to Capello at his first press conference, wrote Martin Samuel in The Times, the nature of the surrender was unequivocal. "The appointment made by Brian Barwick, chief executive of the FA, was not a victory after all, not the triumph it had been painted, but a terrible, hollow defeat. England lost, Italy won - again. Lost the way, lost the plot, lost all knowledge of what had been invented within these shores, with no clue how to get it back." Now England are on their way to the World Cup finals in South Africa, with a disciplined team and with Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard working in harmony. But England teams have qualified impressively for major tournaments in the recent past, only to fail when it mattered most, in the usual traumatic circumstances: botched penalty shoot-outs and star players sent off.
Like Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger or Guus Hiddink, Capello knows who he is, exactly what he wants and how to go about getting it, both on and off the pitch. As soon as the England job became available, he let it be known that he was interested.
"It would be a beautiful challenge," he said, of a position that is the highest-paid of its kind in the world.
Like Sven-Goran Eriksson before him, Capello is worldly. Like Sven, he has a hinterland: the Swede liked opera and Tibetan poetry, the Italian likes opera and fine art. Both men chased the money - and why not?
But Sven, on his way to becoming a figure of fun, was also chasing secretaries and TV celebrities while no hand of Capello has strayed on to an FA secretary's leg at a Christmas party. Nor have his hand-made shoes been left outside one of Ulrika's bedrooms.
For now, the Italian in the Marxist specs is master of all he surveys. But the defining test for him will come next summer in South Africa when - let us imagine - England, through to the quarter-finals, come up against an exceptional passing side, such as Spain, Brazil or Italy. Only then will we know whether England's best under Capello is good enough for the rest of us.
Tories won't rush to play the football game like Blair's team
The emergence of the Premier League as world football's most glamorous, profitable and admired occurred during the high point of the New Labour years.
The rise of New Labour was coterminous with the rise of the New Football.
"The Premier League was held up by Tony Blair as a modernisation model for the rest of British industry to follow," says John Williams of Leicester University's football unit.
"It's a bust to boom economic, global entertainment miracle."
The architects of New Labour — Blair, Gordon Brown, Alastair Campbell — were football fans. Sir Alex Ferguson, a close friend of Campbell's, is a robust Labour man.
Blair and Brown once invited the cameras into Downing Street while they were drinking beers and watching a game during a football tournament.
Look at us, was the message, we're just regular guys! Blair was filmed playing head tennis with Kevin Keegan.
More recently, David Beckham was strategically filmed by the BBC as he left Downing Street after a late night audience with Gordon Brown. And Rio Ferdinand went in to Number 10 to interview the Prime Minister for a sports magazine.
Labour understood the allure of football and, when the party had better control of their media operations, wanted to be associated with it.
Now the country is facing a change of government but it is unlikely that David Cameron and his mostly patrician front bench will rush to embrace the people's game in quite the same way as Labour.
So which sports, or sporting events, will find favour under the Tories? The Eton wall game? Fives? The Henley Regatta? National Hunt racing?
I'll be monitoring this one closely in the months ahead.
Reason to be cheerful
The seven-match one-day series with the Aussies has proved to be a dismal coda to the Ashes triumph. The only joy is that this wretched, tedious, cynical and overlong non-event will soon be at an end.

AB de Villiers, Mignon du Preez to lead Proteas in World T20
Johannesburg: A B de Villiers will lead South Africa at the ICC World Twenty20 to be held in Sri Lanka next month, while the Proteas women`s team will be captained by Mignon du Preez, CSA announced on Thursday.
The announcement marks the return of De Villiers, Jacques Kallis, Dale Steyn and Morne Morkel to the men`s squad after being rested for the triangular T20 series against Zimbabwe and Bangladesh in June.
"We have had basically the same squad together for the past year and many of them also produced stand-out performances at the Indian Premier League (IPL)," said CSA selection convener Andrew Hudson, adding that they were unable to consider Marchant de Lange because of injury.
"The Proteas will also have an excellent preparation for the World Twenty20 by finishing the England tour with three matches there, even though, they may be playing on a different surface to that they will find in Sri Lanka," Hudson said.
CSA National Proteas coach for women, Yashin Ebrahim, meanwhile, announced that Preez would lead the 14-member squad in the competition.
"She (du Preez) will be backed by some fine individual performers like vice-captain, Trisha Chetty, who is one of the best wicketkeepers in the world and is also ranked among the top-10 specialist batsmen, Shandre Fritz who is our only player to have scored a century in this format and Sunette Loubser, last year`s SA Women`s Cricketer of the Year," Ebrahim said.
Men`s squad: AB de Villiers (capt), Hashim Amla, Farhaan Behardien, Johan Botha, JP Duminy, Faf du Plessis, Jacques Kallis, Richard Levi, Albie Morkel, Morne Morkel, Justin Ontong, Wayne Parnell, Robin Peterson, Dale Steyn, Lonwabo Tsotsobe.
Womens` squad: Mignon du Preez (capt), Trisha Chetty, Susan Benade, Dinesha Devnarain, Shandre Fritz, Alison Hodgkinson, Shabnim Ismail, Marizanne Kapp, Ayabonga Khaka, Marcia Letsoalo, Sunette Loubser, Sune Luus, Yolandi van der Westhuizen, Dane van Niekerk.

Lol) The stewards were basically running up and down the aisle giving and taking trays.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
28 Jul 2014 08:04 GMT | Guinea, Liberia, Niger, Nigeria, Sierra Leone
The Liberian government has closed most of the West African nation's border crossings and introduced stringent health measures to curb the spread of the deadly Ebola virus that has killed at least 660 people across the region.
The new measures, announced by the government on Sunday, came as Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone struggle to contain the worst outbreak yet of the virus.
Speaking at a task force meeting, Liberia President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf said the government was doing everything to fight the virus, including inspecting and testing all outgoing and incoming airline passengers.
"All borders of Liberia will be closed with the exception of major entry points. At these entry points, preventive and testing centres will be established, and stringent preventive measures to be announced will be scrupulously adhered to," she said.
Live Box 2014529134439622746
Ebola can kill up to 90 percent of those who catch it, although the fatality rate of the current outbreak is around 60 percent. The outbreak has placed a great strain on the health systems of some of Africa's poorest countries.
Highly contagious, especially in the late stages, its symptoms include vomiting and diarrhoea as well as internal and external bleeding.
Under the new measures, public gatherings such as marches and demonstrations will also be restricted.
"No doubt, the Ebola virus is a national health problem. And as we have also begun to see, it attacks our way of life, with serious economic and social consequences," Sirleaf said in a statement.
But despite efforts to fight it, the virus continues to spread. Samuel Brisbane, a senior Liberian doctor, who was also treating infected patients, has died after contracting the virus, authorities said on Sunday.
In Nigeria's commercial capital Lagos, a Liberian man who tested positive died on Friday.
A 33-year-old American doctor working for the relief organisation Samaritan's Purse in Liberia tested positive for the disease on Saturday.
The charity said on Sunday that a second American, who was helping a team treating Ebola patients at a case management centre in Monrovia, had also tested positive.

Romney Wins Michigan Primary
Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney has propelled himself back into the Republican presidential race with a primary victory in Michigan. Romney won Tuesday's contest with thirty-nine percent of the vote.
Mitt Romney: "You know only a week ago a win looked like it was impossible, but then you got out and told America what they needed to hear. You said we would fight for every job. You said we would fight to get health care for all Americans. You said we would fight to secure our borders. You said you would fight for us to be able to lower taxes for middle-income Americans. And Michigan heard, and Michigan voted tonight. Congratulations."
Arizona Senator and New Hampshire victor John McCain came in second with thirty percent. Iowa winner and former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee was third at sixteen percent. With no candidate taking more than one state so far, the three-way split is fueling talk of the most wide-open Republican race in decades. By nightfall, McCain was already campaigning in South Carolina, the site of the next Republican primary on Saturday.
Sen. John McCain: "Tonight, my friends, we congratulate another candidate's campaign, but tomorrow we get up and fight. Now it's your turn, South Carolina. We're going to fight for your votes, we're going to win this primary and the nomination of our party, and we're going to be proud of the way we do it."
Huckabee: Amend Consitution in "God's Standards"
Meanwhile, Mike Huckabee's religious views are coming under more scrutiny after he called for the Constitution to be re-written in "God's standards."
Mike Huckabee: "I have opponents in this race who do not want to change the Constitution. But I believe it's a lot easier to change the Constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God. And that's what we need to do is amend the Constitution so it's in God's standards, rather than trying to change God's standards so it lines up with some contemporary view of how we treat each other and how we treat the family."
Huckabee was speaking Monday in Michigan. On the Democratic side, Senators Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and former Senator John Edwards squared off in a debate last night in Nevada. Missing from the stage was Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich, who lost a last-minute legal fight with NBC over his inclusion. Kucinich had sued the network after it disinvited him from participating. He'll join us later in the broadcast.
19 Palestinians Killed in Israeli Attack on Gaza
In Israel and the Occupied Territories, the Palestinian death toll from Israel's latest attack on the Gaza Strip has hit nineteen. It was the highest single-day Palestinian toll in more than a year. Another fifty Palestinians were reportedly injured. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas described the assault as a "massacre."
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas: "Today there was a massacre and butchery against our people, and we say to the world, to Israel and to all the people, crimes such as these, one can not remain silent over, and in no way whatsoever can it bring peace."
The fighting came just days after President Bush visited both Israel and the West Bank to promote U.S.-brokered negotiations. At least 115 Palestinians have now been killed in Israeli attacks since the Bush administration launched the latest phase of talks in Annapolis two months ago. Dismissed Palestinian Prime Minister and Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh said the Palestinian Authority was partly responsible for the ongoing attacks.
Ismail Haniyeh: "These attacks are the gifts from Bush, the gifts to who clapped for Bush, and the gifts for the people who sold their nation just for Bush. But we tell them, Bush is leaving, and you are leaving, but this case, this nation, this power, and this dignity will stay forever."
Meanwhile, several Israelis have been wounded in Palestinian rocket fire on nearby Israeli towns. Hamas said it took part in the rocket-firing for the first time since seizing power in Gaza last year. An Ecuadorian national working on an Israeli farm was also killed by Palestinian sniper fire. Israeli President Shimon Peres said Israel was acting to prevent Palestinian attacks.
Israeli President Shimon Peres: "We left Gaza completely. We took out our army, we took out our settlements. There is no single Israeli in the Gaza Strip. It's totally in the hands of the Palestinians, and we don't understand exactly why they are the shooting, what do they want to achieve. But as long as they are shooting, we are left without a choice but to answer and stop it."
Israel has continued attacks on Gaza after rejecting a truce offer from Hamas last month. Israel has also cut fuel, water and electricity supplies, barred almost all Palestinians from leaving, including those needing medical care, and cut off staples, including food and bottled water.
Sri Lanka Bombing Prompts Fears of Violent Outbreak
In Sri Lanka, at least twenty-four people have been killed in a roadside bombing on a civilian bus. The attack is renewing fears of a new outbreak of violence as a six-year ceasefire between the government and Tamil rebels formally expires.
3 Killed in Lebanon Bombing Targeting U.S. Vehicle
In Lebanon, at least three people were killed Tuesday in a bomb targeting a U.S. embassy vehicle in Beirut. Another twenty bystanders were reportedly wounded. Speaking from Saudi Arabia, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice condemned the attack.
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice: ''The United States will of course not be deterred in its effort to help the Lebanese people, to help the democratic forces in Lebanon, to help Lebanon resist foreign interference in their affairs and to uphold the many security resolutions that have been passed in the past of a stable and democratic Lebanon.''
Doctors: Suharto Developing Life-Threatening Condition
In Indonesia, doctors for the former dictator Suharto say he is developing a life-threatening blood infection. Suharto oversaw the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, most coming during his rise to power in the late 1960s and in Indonesia's invasion and occupation of East Timor. Suharto was also charged with stealing billions of dollars in public funds. On Tuesday, a group of students rallied in Solo, the site of the Suharto family home, to call for returning Suharto's fortune to the Indonesian people.
Protester: "We are consistently striving against Suharto, and and his assets should be given to the people for their welfare."
Scientists Take to Hill to Protest Admin Interference in Environmental Science
In Washington, more than two dozen scientists have come to Capitol Hill this week to protest the Bush administration's alleged interference in science linked to the environment. Members of the Union of Concerned Scientists and the Endangered Species Coalition are calling for congressional probes and better oversight of how the administration interacts with government scientists. The administration has been accused of censoring reports highlighting global warming and of gutting the Endangered Species Act. The Endangered Species Coalition says at least fifty different species decisions have appeared to be motivated by politics rather than environmental science.
FDA OKs Cloned Meat
The Food and Drug Administration has declared food from cloned animals safe to eat. Despite the announcement, the Department of Agriculture is asking farmers to continue withholding cloned meat from the market in order to give consumers time to accept the idea. The Washington Post reports there's new evidence showing the cloned meat ban has already been violated. Several major cattle-cloning companies admitted Tuesday they've been unable to keep track of the number of clone offspring that have entered the food supply.
New York Ends Solitary Confinement of Mentally Ill Prisoners
And here in New York, state lawmakers have approved a bill that would bar holding seriously mentally ill prisoners in solitary confinement. Under the measure, the prisoners will now be transferred to secure treatment facilities rather than kept in twenty-four-hour solitude. The measure caps a four-year campaign by mental health and prisoner advocates. They've argued that solitary confinement of mentally ill prisoners is inhumane and has led to increased suicides and declining mental health.

I guess you could call "Yours, Mine and Ours" a family comedy with a vengeance, since there are 18 kids in the family. Eight belong to Lucille Ball, a widow, and ten belong to Henry Fonda, a widower.
Introduced to each other by Van Johnson, a matchmaker with a sense of humor, they fall in love and get married. Then there are 20 in the family, counting Mom and Dad.
Uh, make that 21. Lucy gets pregnant.
The movie was directed by Melville Shavelson, whose "The Seven Little Foys" (1956) and "Room for One More" (1952) must have been warm-ups. He also directed "Cast a Giant Shadow" and "Always Leave Them Laughing."
The newlyweds move into a big, old, Victorian house which blessedly has four bathrooms. Fonda (a Navy officer) organizes the brood along shipboard lines, assigning every kid a number, a bathroom, a bedroom and a place at the table.
The kids line up for their week's ration of clean sheets and toothpaste in scenes reminiscent of "Cheaper by the Dozen" (1950), and there are other ingredients suggested by that splendid picture. The older daughters have troubles with unbashful beaus; the youngsters get in pillow fights; there is a suspected case of the flu; jealousies grow between the two sets of children, and there are four small visitors (all under 5 years of age) who invite themselves to their parents' wedding night and crawl under the covers.
Lucy is a master of the sight gag, and no one can be quite so helpless in the face of confusion. During a cocktail party, she loses a false eyelash in the Irish coffee: and her methods of supervising breakfast for 20 people are a reminder of her hilarious attempt to fry an egg in "The Long, Long Trailer."
Fonda is an appropriately wise, patient, bewildered father. And young Eric Shea, who plays Phillip, steals more than one scene as he gets squeezed out in the rush. Ignored at breakfast, he invents the oatmeal sandwich in desperation.
"Yours, Mine and Ours" is in the "Cheaper by the Dozen" tradition; it has none of the sharp-edged social comment of last summer's "Divorce American Style," But as a genuinely amusing family film, it will do nicely.
The audience on opening day exuded a collective sigh of rapture when Lucy held up her newborn child, and that's a good sign, if only for Bobby Kennedy.

In my state at least, everyone's insurance policy includes coverage against accidents from uninsured drivers. So our insurance would repair our car, and it's up to them to go after the other guy for the repairs.
"Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless." - Mother Teresa
is there a reason not to total out the car and take the money and get it fixed? if you aren't planning on selling it i don't think a totaled title is an issue?
i could be wrong of course.
and, embarassingly enough, i was an uninsured driver and i pulled in front of someone and she hit me. i did get a ticket and a suspended license (i'm really surprised they didn't do this?!?) but her insurance company never contacted me at all regarding payments. s i don't really know why?
Why? It seems like any judge would side in your favor. I'd try.
my mom had a car totalled after a drunk hit-and-run driver damaged the side. she got insurance to pay her the "total" value of the car minus what they would get for the car if it was scrapped. And she kept the car.
I always thought you can buy back your own totalled car from your insurance company. I know my dad did something similar to what SleeplessMommy described (except no drunk driver involved, but black ice with two insured drivers) I clearly remember my dad on the phone with some insurance person negotiating the "salvage price" of the car. I think I would buy it back, drop the comp and collision, and then just drive it in is current condition until it useful life was used up. (I am a person that doesn't get to hung up on the asthetics of vehicles )
The whole uninsured driver part stinks, is unfair, and I know would be annoying to me as well. But in the long run I just don't think I'd be willing to devote the time and emotional energy necessary to do anything about it.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
12 Jun 2014 09:08 GMT | Asia
A court in southern port city of Karachi has ordered Pakistan's government to lift a travel ban on former military ruler Pervez Musharraf in 15 days' time, his lawyer has said.
"The court has allowed our appeal and ordered to strike down Musharraf's name from the Exit Control List. The order will be executed after 15 days," lawyer Farogh Naseem told the AFP news agency on Thursday.
The delayed execution of the order "will give time to the government to appeal in a superior court if they so desire", he added.
Musharraf, 70, has been battling several court cases since he returned to Pakistan last year to fight national elections. In March a court charged him with treason for imposing emergency rule in 2007, stoking tensions between civilian authorities and the powerful military.
His exit from Pakistan could help ease those tensions at a time when the country is fighting a resurgent Taliban following a deadly attack on Karachi's airport this week that left more than 30 people dead.
Musharraf flew to Karachi in April to undergo medical tests. He has said he wanted the travel ban lifted so he could visit his sick mother in Dubai, but many in Pakistan see it as a ruse to flee the country and avoid the litany of criminal cases against him dating back to his 1999-2008 rule.
He also faces several murder cases. The former military ruler has been staying with his daughter in Karachi where he travelled for the tests at a navy-run hospital.
He has been having medical treatment since January, when he was rushed to hospital after suffering heart problems on his way to court for a hearing.
The former general, who seized power in 1999 and resigned in 2008, has pleaded not guilty to the treason charges.
Musharraf, however, has been granted bail in three other major cases linked to his time in power, including the 2007 assassination of opposition leader Benazir Bhutto in a gun and suicide attack, and the murder of Baloch nationalist leader Nawab Akbar Bugti in 2006.

A lot of the time, Girls annoys the shit out of me and I do spend so much
of the time watching it, rolling my eyes. But what got me last season was
the fact they showed someone (Hannah) struggling with mental illness, and
aside form the dumb-ass cotton bud/ear scene, I found that really
relatable. It felt as if it was portrayed in a real way, and I watched
Hannah going through a lot of the things I went through (when she hides
from Marnie, especially) and just found that really reassuring, in a way,
that this kind of thing was actually getting airtime now; because usually
mental illness is just portrayed as something that goes hand in hand with
like, criminals, murderers and rich white old men who just got fired from
their six figure banking job. I guess my point, which might have got lost
in all that rambling, is that mental illness is real and real people go
through it and it felt good to see it on television.

Stephen Colbert Flawlessly Mocks Republican Heartbreak In Wake Of Obamacare Success
On Tuesday nights episode of Comedy Centrals The Colbert Report, Stephen Colbert began the show with a bang. The mock conservative host lampooned Republicans by lamenting the fact that millions of Americans now have health insurance. He then showed clips from earlier in the day revealing that due to Obamacare, 7.1 million people have been able to obtain a private health insurance plan in the marketplace.
After playing those clips, Colbert complained about how crowded his doctors office will be now that there will be 7.1 million other patients in line before him. He then pointed out that in recent weeks, conservatives had assured him that there was no way that the ACA would meet its goal. This was followed by clips from right-wing pundits, mostly on Fox News, stating with absolute certainty that Obamacare would fall far short of its intended target.
The clips Colbert played included some priceless statements from notable conservatives, such as John Sununu saying on March 11th that the enrollment figures would top out at 4-1/2 million. Another funny one was Karl Rove using his white board about a week ago to demonstrate how it was impossible for the ACA to reach this target. This led to a funny bit where Colbert referred to Rove and Boardy as a couple and pondered how they could get this wrong after calling Ohio for Romney back in 2012.
Colbert revealed that he didnt want to rain on anyones parade, pointing out that he had to cancel his Obamacare = Failure parade. He also stated that he had to cancel another event,Stephen Colberts Rockin Enrollment Failure Eve which was to be co-hosted by T.I. and Ryan Seacrest. Their plan was to drop an uninsured person at midnight and not take him to a hospital since he wouldnt have insurance.
After that, Colbert highlighted how a late influx in young people led to the surge in enrollments in the end. He then said that nobody could have foreseen college students waiting until the last minute to get something done. This was followed by clips of conservative news hosts in denial. Colbert playfully mocked these pundits by claiming that numbers are just abstract concepts and that we use Arabic numerals. Obviously there is a conspiracy at foot!
Colbert then brought the segment to a close by playing video of the Presidents remarks Tuesday afternoon in the Rose Garden, where he ripped into Republicans for actively trying to deny millions of people the chance to get health insurance. The Report host felt that was dirty politics, as pointing out that Republicans dont want people to have insurance could hurt their chances to retake the Senate in these midterms, and then they wouldnt be able to take away peoples insurance. He then concluded that this was all a big April Fools Day joke four years in the making. Seriously, Colbert asked, do you really think conservatives wanted America to be the only Western industrialized nation without affordable health care?
As always, Colbert used his faux-conservative shtick to masterfully shine the mirror at Republicans and show just how foolish they are. In this instance, he ridiculed right-wingers for constantly campaigning against the law and openly rooting for it to fail. By stating that it was all an April Fools Day joke at the end, Colbert is divulging to viewers the long-term plan for many Republicans when they finally realize that theyve completely lost on this issue. They will merely turn around and say that theyve supported this law all along.

One State/Two States: Rethinking Israel and Palestine
By Danny Rubinstein - Summer 2010
Against the background of Barack Obamas attempt to defend the idea of two states for two peoples in Israel/Palestine, consider a recent talk given by the Palestinian Sufian Abu-Zayda. Abu-Zayda is fifty years old. He was born in the Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza, the largest of the Palestinian camps, and he is considered the Palestinian spokesman most fluent in Hebrew, which he learned during the fourteen years that he spent in an Israeli prison on charges of participating in terrorist activities. After his release in 1993, he was one of the senior Fatah leaders in Gaza and was appointed to various positions in the Palestinian government. Among other activities he has been active in the Israeli-Palestinian Geneva Initiative, in which moderates from both sides argue that it is possible to find a just two-state solution.
It was quite surprising, therefore, that Abu-Zayda, in his talk to an Israeli audience, announced that he had changed his mind. Like other Palestinians who spoke to the Israeli media over the last months, he was responding to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahus speech at Bar Ilan Universityitself a response of sorts to President Obamas June 2009 speech at the University of Cairo. With some drama, Netanyahu had agreed that a Palestinian state should be established in territory of the Land of Israel to the west of the Jordan River. This was a significant change for Netanyahu, whose roots are in the nationalist movement that has given up its earlier sloganThere are two banks to the Jordan, this one is ours, and so is that onebut that still demands Israeli rule in the Greater Land of Israel west of the Jordan. Commentators talked of a fissure on the Israeli Right; it was widely believed that as long as Ben Zion Netanyahu is still alive, his son wouldnt dare rebel against the nationalist traditions of the family.
But what might have seemed unbelievable a short time ago has become a reality. Netanyahu, at the head of the nationalist, right-wing government with members like Benny Begin (son of Menachem Begin) who have consistently rejected all concessions, has accepted the idea of a Palestinian state.
In his talk at Tel Aviv University, Abu-Zayda responded to what the prime minister had said:Many thanks to Benjamin Netanyahu. After twenty years of the peace process [since the Madrid Conference in 1991], and after the mutual recognition of Israel and the PLO [in the Oslo Accords], he finally agrees to a Palestinian state. There was irony in his voice as he continued,Do you think you are doing us a favor when you agree to two states? No favor at all. From my side, from the Palestinians sidelet there be one state, not two . I was introduced to you as Sufian Abu-Zayda from the Jabalya camp, but Im not from Jabalya. I might have been born there, but my family had been exiled in 1948 from a village named Breer, where Kibbutz Bror Hayill now stands, near the Gaza border. If there will be one state, Ill be happy to rent or buy a house near the kibbutz and live there. And then Abu-Zayda said in a loud voice,You are doing yourselves a favor by establishing two states, not us.

Fox News: Obamacare Numbers Are 'Phony'
#1108773 Apr 2, 2014
WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down the aggregate campaign contribution limits, thereby opening the door to even more money in the political system.
The 5-4 ruling in McCutcheon v. Federal Election Commission was penned by Chief Justice John Roberts and joined by justices Anthony Kennedy, Samuel Alito and Antonin Scalia. The decision relies heavily on the assertion in the 2010 Citizens United ruling that influence and access are not a corruption concern.
Justice Clarence Thomas wrote a separate opinion that agreed to strike the aggregate limits, but also called for an end to the entire campaign finance reform system.
The victory for the Alabama businessman and major Republican Party donor Shaun McCutcheon, who was joined by the Republican National Committee in his challenge, means that a single donor will soon be able to contribute millions of hard dollars -- in limited contributions -- to political parties, candidates and political action committees.

So if you want to blame Bush, why has spending increased by nearly $200 billion since Obama's presidency?
Did you know, combined with state and local spending, the federal government spends $20,610 for every poor person in America - or $61,830 per poor family of three.
I didn't.
And given the poverty line for that family is just $18,530, we should have theoretically wiped out poverty in America many times over?
But Obama is inviting more people to get on welfare by spending even more money on ads. You don't have to be working at any job or take a drug test. And to receive ObamaCare subsidies, you don't even have to verify your income.

Combative YoungHeart come up trumps
Relevant offers
YoungHeart Manawatu have a chance of evading bottom place in the national league after their fighting 3-2 win over Waikato FC in hot conditions at Hamilton yesterday.
The three points from the win see them equal on six points at the tail of the ladder.
But Manawatu play Canterbury United away on the artificial pitch in Christchurch next weekend and host Auckland City at Memorial Park in the last game of the season.
It is a big call against the second-placed side but coach Stu Jacobs would love to get something from the Auckland City game in front of the home fans.
Although yesterday's win at Porritt Park wasn't pretty, to use Jacobs' words, it was a long time since the only other victory, at the start of the season over Otago United.
It arrested a run of 10 straight defeats for Manawatu.
"It was nice to get a result in our favour for once," Jacobs said.
"We'll enjoy this one. All in all it was a good day.
"We had no wins last year and we have had two wins this year as well as the win against the Phoenix.
"For me it has been the performances that have improved."
Jacobs said he didn't expect a great influx of money into the franchise next year so the young players would have to go away and develop over the winter and come back better players next season.
After two weeks away from the team, Adam Cowan came back to play a dominant role yesterday.
Jacobs always believed the result would come down to the team which defended the best.
"We were a bit more resilient at the back," he said.
"It wasn't going to be a draw."
Goalkeeper Matt Borren came up with important saves, none more so that in the 93rd minute when he saved a long-range screamer from Raymond How that would have tied the match.
"That was a great save because it went through a crowd of players," Jacobs said. "They are the kind of opportunities that in the past would have gone in."
Manawatu deserved their 2-1 lead at halftime because Waikato had failed to deal with striker Seule Soromon.
He slotted a header for the first goal off a Matt Higham corner kick and finished off the second nicely after Cowan played him through.
Sam Redwood was given a run in the starting outfit and he scored the winner off a corner kick with 19 minutes to play. It bounced around in the box and Redwood poked it home.
Waikato had equalised at 1-all only four minutes after Soromon's first. Their second equaliser came when Manawatu's Nathan Cooksley had inadvertently headed into striker Gurjeep Singh's path.
Scorers: YoungHeart Manawatu 3 (Seule Soromon 4', 18'; Sam Redwood 84') Waikato FC 2 (Rory Turner 8', Gurjeep Singh 54') HT 2-1.
Other scores: Otago 1 Waitakere 4, Hawke's Bay 1 Canterbury 1, Wellington 2 Auckland 3.
