North and South Korea reach agreement to defuse tensions
North and South Korea have reached an agreement following two days of talks to end hostilities between the two sides.
Under the accord, North Korea expressed regret over a landmine incident that wounded two South Korean soldiers earlier this month. South Korea, in return, agreed to stop anti-North propaganda broadcasts along the border from midday tomorrow.
In a joint statement, the two sides agreed to hold follow-up talks aimed at improving ties. North Korea has ended the "quasi-state of war" it had declared.
Last week an exchange of artillery fire across the border had pushed the Korean peninsula to the brink of armed conflict.
"It is very meaningful that from this meeting North Korea apologised for the landmine provocation and promised to work to prevent the recurrence of such events and ease tensions." Kim Kwan-jin, South Korea's national security adviser said in a televised statement.
North and South Korea envoys strike deal after talks
North and South Korean officials have struck a deal after negotiations to end tensions on the peninsula.
South Korea is expected to announce a joint statement on the agreement with North Korea shortly.
S. Korea 'will continue broadcasts unless North apologises'
South Korea's anti-North propaganda broadcasts will continue to be blared across the border unless Pyongyang apologises, the country's president has said.
Park Geun-hye said the South deserved an apology after two South Korean soldiers were wounded by landmines along the border.
A statement released by her office reveals Park reportedly told her top aides:
We need a clear apology and measures to prevent a recurrence of these provocations and tense situations.
Otherwise, this government will take appropriate steps and continue loudspeaker broadcasts.
It comes amid lengthy inter-Korean talks aimed at easing tensions that have brought the peninsula to the brink of armed conflict.
In 2004, North and South Korea agreed to stop blaring propaganda at one another across the border, but such broadcasts have resumed in recent days as relations between the two countries deteriorate.
North and South Korea officials continue talks
Senior aides to the leaders of North and South Korea are continuing talks aimed at easing tensions that have brought the peninsula to the brink of armed conflict.
The meeting at the Panmunjom truce village began on Saturday evening, shortly after North Korea's deadline for loudspeaker propaganda broadcasts along the border to stop or face military action.
The envoys, shown on TV exchanging handshakes at the start of their meeting, are discussing ways to resolve tensions and improve ties, South Korean officials said.
Talks between North and South Korea to continue tomorrow
Talks aimed at ending a standoff between North and South Korea are due to continue tomorrow after being adjourned for the day.
The talks, which have seen top aides to the leaders of both countries meet in an attempt to defuse mounting tensions and try to avert possible military action, are being held at the Panmunjom truce village.
According to South Korea's presidential spokesman Min Kyung-wook the meeting adjourned at 4.15am but will resume at 3pm on Sunday. No details about the talks have been disclosed.
North and South Korean officials agree to 'hold contact'
Top aides to the leaders of North and South Korea have agreed to "hold contact" after talks aimed at ending a standoff between the two countries.
The meeting was held at the Panmunjom truce village after an exchange of artillery fire on Thursday strained relations between the two sides.
North Korea had issued an ultimatum with a deadline demanding that the South halt its loudspeaker propaganda broadcasts along the border or face military action.
That deadline passed without any reported incidents.
"The South and the North agreed to hold contact related to the ongoing situation in South-North relations," Kim Kyou-hyun, South Korea's deputy national security adviser, said in a televised briefing.
North and South Korean officials to meet amid tensions
Top aides to the leaders of North and South Korea will meet at the Panmunjom truce village close to the military border on Saturday to discuss the situation on the Korean peninsula, the South's presidential office said.
It comes amid high tensions following an exchange of artillery fire on Thursday.
The meeting is due to take place half an hour after North Korea's previously set ultimatum demanding that the South halt its loudspeaker propaganda broadcasts along the border or face military action.

North Korea warns of war after latest border dispute
North Korea has moved its front line troops into "wartime state" after a recent exchange of shellfire with neighbouring South Korea, according to state media in the country.
This potential escalation in regional tensions comes after North Korea opened fire at a series of propaganda loudspeakers operated by its neighbour that were broadcasting propaganda messages across the border.
South Korea retaliated by firing artillery rounds towards North Korea, reportedly provoking Pyongyang to raise military readiness.
Seoul has promised to "powerfully counter-attack any North Korean provocations", the Yonhap news agency report.

EarthLED ZetaLux 2 Pro High Performance Lamp Light Bulb
EarthLED's bulb got high scores in the lab: Compared with an incandescent bulb, it provided even more total light output. And, like other LEDs, it reached 100% brightness instantly, so you won't have to sit in the dark while your light warms up. Unfortunately, our consumer testers were unimpressed with the color temperature of the light as well as how unevenly it lit up our test lamp. In our test the lab validated this impression, as it tended heavily skew light toward the top of the bulb — not good if you hope to use it in, say, a reading lamp.
Type: LED
Watts: 7
Lumens: 450
Reviewed: January 2012
Price When Reviewed: $14.49
- Reaches full brightness instantly after turned on
- Comparably bright to 60 Watt incandescent
- Poor light distribution
- Consumer testers did not like the color temperature or light distribution from this bulb

#1 is EOS which has a 9% divi and a 18% mkt price gain for 20013 ads up to 27% reinvest those monthly divis and if every investment you ever made ,would give you 1/2 that kinda return, wow a hero you would be.
i for one would hire some one to help me spend my money.
CEFL, IMHO should and most likley generate north of 18% so at the end of the year it dropped 10% you will still have made 8% on your money.
Not bad for so called "fixed income" UBS has had good track record on etn's look at MLPL, BDCL
They have done well for me in the past year.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Bot 2X MORL 1/2 July, 1/2 Aug avg $20. Closed @ $19.75 today. Distributions equals to $17.35 if bot today. Nothing like the power of steady paychecks. lol
morl is on a steady uptrend i am a holder and adding more paid out over $4 a share last year i think it will pay even more this year.
Looking for .14 divy for Feb
REIT mkt on an up swing
i am also forcasting .12 divy on cefl this month
Sentiment: Buy
EOS is still at an 8.6% discount, a product like this may help close that some
ETY is also one of the Top Holdings in CEFL ..and it trades at a 10% discount to NAV ...provides a current yield of about 9% ...returned + 27% in 2013 and +15% in 2012 ...( Total return ) ...and EV is buying back shares on a monthly basis ...over 2.8 million thus far ...reducing the discount to NAV form 14% to the present level ...
ETY paid out about a dollar per share in 2013 ...but earned $1.93 ....so their large dividend distribution looks to be sustainable ..at least for a few quarters ....
Looks to me like the UBS placed most of the so called option income CEFs in this product ...at least the ones sporting a 10% discount to NAV and a high monthly yield ....
The weakness I see ....well ...the funds they purchased typically have a 1.1% annual fee built in ..and UBS is tacking on their .5% or so fee ....so now you are paying 1.6%-1.75% per year ...off the top ...its a bit pricey ....but the big monthly yield should more than make up for that ...

For some, it comes naturally. Being green that is. I mean if you're an animal and it's your color, that's a no brainer. You are green. But if you're an Earth-friendly green human like many of us claim to be during Earth Week this week, we are all thinking of ways of being nice to this planet we ALL have to live on.
In fact, there are several ways we can all be the same shade of green. When considering different ways to do this, the selection of actual environmentally-friendly products from cleaning to paint to clothing is, well, pretty cluttered. So, in my mind, it begs the question, are the products advertised living up to the standards of being green?
BBB® says you should read the product label carefully before buying it. The Code of Advertising recommends there should be ample amounts of competent and reliable scientific evidence to back up claims, along with recommendations for when to use words like "degradable" and "recyclable" in advertising and packaging. But take it a step further: the manufacturer should have also taken legitimate steps to actually test these claims. Think about this for a moment. What's worse than buying a product you think will actually break down like it's supposed to or be recycled into another product only to learn later that it will languish in a landfill like all the other trash?
So before snatching up the first earth friendly product you see at the store or putting items you think are recyclable in with your recyclables, think about the following:
Biodegradable doesn't always mean the product won't be headed for a landfill. There should be a substantiated claim behind it the manufacturer has in fact determined the material is biodegradable based on industry standards.
Check with your city or county government that handles your recycling services. You may or may not be able to recycle an item, even though it says it is recyclable.
Just because you see a picture of a globe with the words "Earth Smart" on a product, it could mean nothing unless the package tells you more. Read the verbiage on the product or look up the company's website to learn more about the research or materials they used in making it.
BBB has an excellent resource in reviewing advertising claims made by manufacturers. By following our Code of Advertising, we encourage advertisers to be prepared to substantiate any claims or offers they print or broadcast and present their claims when requested. This protects consumers and builds trust in the marketplace.
In fact, if you see an ad for a product claiming to be "Green" you think might not be up to snuff, let us know. Really. Send us the ad by mail or email, along with your concerns, or just give us a call at 513-639-9114 to talk about it.
Remember, you can always contact your BBB at bbb.org to find out if there is any truth behind what's being advertised.
**By the way, if you really want to clear out some clutter in your part of the world, join us Saturday, April 26 for Secure Your ID Day, 8 a.m. to Noon at UC Blue Ash.

Demography may not be destiny, but it sure is close. As minorities, who reliably vote for Democratic candidates, begin to outnumber whites, who often vote for Republicans, will we see a tipping point where Republican presidential candidates stand little chance of winning?
Despite the attempts by many to portray the opposition to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) as "absurd," the ranks of the resistance to this tyrannical act grow larger day by day.
On May 26 at 10:00 a.m. at a park across the street from the Northumberland County Courthouse in Sunbury, Pennsylvania, State Constable Ed Quiggle, Jr. will add his name to that noble roster by signing a resolution he proposed that calls for the nullification of the NDAA.
Now that census data show — for the first time in American history — the number of white babies born exceeded by the number of babies born to non-white minorities the question is: What does this mean for the future of American society?
In the effort to recall Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, much has been said about his record to date, but politics being what it is, many of the claims simply aren't true.
Pro-lifers were concerned to find GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney attending a fundraiser at the Miami home of Phil Frost, CEO of Teva Pharmaceuticals, the company that manufactures the Plan B or "Morning After" abortion pill.
As Ron Paul's legion of dedicated supporters march to victory in state convention after state convention, there is evidence that the libertarian-leaning Texan's influence might be felt in the Senate, as well. Reports in several news outlets are chronicling the nationwide success of several anti-establishment Republican candidates in bringing down the GOP's vaunted "big tent."
Late last week, U.S. District Court Judge Frank Zapata denied Tombstone, Arizona's motion for an emergency injunction against the government of the United States and the Forest Service that would have given the city the green light to use heavy machinery to repair water pipelines located in "protected areas."
Backing President Obama's "evolution" on the issue, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) has passed a resolution recognizing same-sex marriage as a civil right. The announcement was seen by political experts as a move to shore up support for President Obama in the black community, which has been at odds with the President over his aggressive efforts on behalf of the homosexual lobby.
A recently uploaded YouTube video showed a North Carolina teacher telling a student that disrespecting President Obama is a criminal offense.
If you cast a ballot for Barack Obama, is it possible to know what you're voting for? Upon digging into the president's personal history, everything about Obama seems a composite fabrication. With Mr. Barack Barry Hussein Soetoro Obama (PBUH), nothing is as it seems.

Culture Shock
By Steven Robert Allen
A couple months ago, SolArts, the art and performance space located along Central between Downtown and the University, expanded its operations by opening a new theater thrift store. The organizers opened the store partly because they needed a place to store their largish collection of theatrical costumes. As a way to help generate funds, the organizers intend to place as many costumes as possible from SolArts productions in the store following the run of the show. Right now, they mainly have women's attire, much of it vintage, but they also have wigs, feather boas, gloves, books, some freaky props and other theatrical accessories. Weird and wacky stuff, and none of it is priced over $15. They've also got a rack of rentals with each costume costing only $10 per night. For details, call SolArts at 244-0049, or stop by on Friday and Saturday afternoons. SolArts is located at 712 Central SE, one block west of I-25.

I saw a lot of fantastic shows at this year's Revolutions International Theatre Festival, but the best of the lot, in my opinion, was Splinters, a brilliant theatrical metaphor for the conflict between religion and science created by the Tricklock Company's Kevin R. Elder and Summer Olsson. Elder is back with a new one-man show called Tangential that's directed by Olsson. I'm willing to bet the farm that this one will kick your butt. The show opens this Friday, March 18, with a special catered gala at 8 p.m. at the Tricklock Performance Space (112 Washington SE). $18. Tangential then runs Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., and Sundays at 6 p.m. through April 10. $12 general, $9 students/seniors. 254-8393.

Although it's deeply unfortunate that this production won't feature a topless Uma Thurman, Les Liaisons Dangeureses should be a rollicking good show nonetheless.

This staging boasts lavish period costumes, a suspiciously phallic set and a cast of notable local performers. Les Liaisons Dangeureses runs through April 10 at the Vortex Theatre (2004 1/2 Central SE). Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. Sundays at 6 p.m. 247-8600.

The third thing you should know is that the Pajama Men will be performing a new sketch show called Stop Not Going at the Q-Staff Theatre (4819 Central NE) starting this weekend. The show will run Fridays and Saturdays at 9 p.m. through April 9. $15 general, $12 students. They'll also be doing a fully improvised show called Dirty Thursdays on, yes, Thursdays at 9 p.m. through April 14. $9. You will be amused. 255-2182.

Carlson will exhibit this piece starting this week at Factory on 5th Art Space along with an undulating canvas work created by Christy Kay Lopez called The Observer Effect.

i should think that even coach wooden, a private man of faith, back in the day wouldnt have endorsed this sort of thing. wishing k.a.j. good health and every happiness. we do pray daily for his good health.
my point is that somehow i doubt mr. abdul jabbar would have posted his pic with the aforementioned men. why do it with "rabbi schmuely". k.a.j is far too smart to have done something this, well..stupid.
the rev jeremiah wright or the rev.louis farrahkhan, somehow the media absolves itself of responsibility when giving him yet another forum?
rabbi schmuely is to religion what his friend uri gellar is to science: a fraud, a huckster, a schemer. and because he's a rabbi and not say
themselves into where they do not belong as titled clerics. this isnt iran. we arent a theocracy. hence what the hell is this rabbi doing, hawking, all the time?
and is most distubring to the secular world, the civic life, where in this country we cringe when ministers, priests, rabbis and imams thrust
religion is a most private and personal matter. and it, and its self-proclaimed leaders, should tend to matters of conventional religious
laws and service. being on cnn or talking trash in any medium on celebrity is not within the confines of religious
albeit of another religious variation? he had his imam exploitation issues that ended badly for all involved.
as far my incredulity at mr. adbul jabbars alacrity in taking this photo, did he not learn from what these types did to him earlier in his life?
religion is a means to line his own pocket, living very well and as a poser while those in need are brushed aside for his avarice of celebrity and money
within his own jewish community. so much for the "peacemakers". colloquially put, he's a hustler. and like rev ike, and so many others before the rabbi
this rabbi never saw a camera he didnt gravitate to like a laser beam. he opines on issues he knows nothing about, and has created strife and rancour
income myseteriously quadrupled in those years. who was paying for his importated cigars, upscale vehicles, and very comfortable housing exactly?
edmund safra as well as the litigation of missing money within the lubavitch litagation matter that seemed to have "disappeared" once the rabbi's
saving tapes of private phone calls and publishing them? its called being a social parasite. why not explore the "missing" money of the late
cleric of ANY religious affiliation?
what is the relationship between being a rabbi and servicing michael jackson's "emotional needs" only to write about it in a book after mj's death? what kind of code of conduct, breach of privacy, is this considered acceptable in the world of a so-called

TripAdvisor Reviews Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis - Chesterfield
Travel Blogs from Chesterfield
Quick stop to St. Louis
... looking at my phone when it happened! When we got almost to St. Louis, we got off the highway to go to a place called Malcolm W. Martin Memorial Park. I read this was the best spot to get a picture of the Arch and the St. Louis skyline. When we got there we had the place to ourselves so we got some great photos! We then got back on the road since we still had about 2 1/2 hrs ahead of us before our campsite for the night in the Mark Twain state park near Hannibal, ...
Day 8 - Visiting Butterflies in the Frozen Tundra
... great riding day. Routes US-60E and MO-34E were nothing special, but the scenery improved significantly when we hit MO-21N. We even ran into a working Drive-In Theater on Route 21 called, originally enough, the "21 Drive In". For $8.00 you could see not only Perfect Pitch 2, but also Paul Blart Mall Cop 2. Talk about your culture overload!
Then on to MO-49N and MO-32W which were as scenic as MO-21N, but much more hills and ...
6th entry
... In the book, The Hobbit, hobbits are portrayed as unadventurous and live just simple lives. They enjoy six meals a day if they could get them. They enjoyed simple foods which is an example of Oxfordshire style such as bread, cake, and tea. They invented the art of smoking pipes which is found all over middle earth. Most hobbits live in underground homes found in hillsides or banks which have round doors and ...

... were glad we did it in the morning while we could.
There was also a skateless skate board park, a juggling show, indoor tree house and cage structures that you could crawl in which we did for several hours before deciding to call it a day. The kids said this was one of the most fun places they were ever at.
It was mid afternoon and we still had not had anything to eat since breakfast and since we had missed out on Kansas ...
Final Thoughts

Now, that doesn't mean we will never visit Mexico again in our lives but the Mexican Riviera is ravaged with drug wars, poor people, ripoffs, and cheap trinkets aka souvenirs.

Board votes against an agreement Eddy County
The Chaves County Commission voted against a mutual assistance agreement between Eddy and Chaves counties, on Thursday. Commissioner Kim Chesser noted that law enforcement agencies of the two counties often aided each other. He wondered if it was necessary to have a formal written agreement between the counties.
Commissioner Kyle "Smiley" Wooton asked Sheriff Rob Coon if all law enforcement agencies across the state took an oath to assist other agencies. Wooton quipped: "Does that not mean anything to Eddy County?"
Coon affirmed that the oaths were uniform and the training was the same as that taught by the New Mexico State Law Enforcement Academy in Santa Fe.
Chesser suggested the county write a Login to read more

McAfee Total Protection 2010
McAfee Total Protection 2010 : Lengthy Install The setup program is tiny because it always downloads the latest code and virus signatures from McAfee's web site. That means the install can take quite a while, but on completion the product is fully up to date.
4 / 36
Bottom Line
The latest McAfee suite has a brand-new user-friendly interface and a much smaller impact on performance than its predecessor. It's better in almost every area, though parental control is still weak. What it needs now is a bulletproof installer and even better malware cleanup.

QUOTE(Lottie @ May 16 2005, 03:09 PM)
The toursit industry is going to be no different whether Scotland is independent or not. Whisky exports are more or less it...
I don't entirely agree with you there. The SNP for example proposed that with an Independent Scotland and I quote:
..."will have at its disposal the powers to make Scotland a more competitive place to do business, for example the power to cut business taxes."
Which in my opinion would have an HUGE effect on tourism.
As for summarizing Scotland's exports as "Whisky exports are more or less it... " is just ignorance.
Scotland has a other industries such as agriculture, fishing, textiles, oil fabrication as well as Whisky production and tourism. I'm sure there are plenty more. All of these industries would / could play a HUGE part in Scotland independence.

Christmas Stockings - Family of 4 Christmas Ornament
Personalized Christmas Ornament
Each member of the family has their own unique style and flair, reflected in their own Christmas stocking choice. This personalized family of four ornament or personalized four friends ornament is a beautiful red matte finished glass ball with a ribbon tied on the top in a bow. Each of the four stockings is hand-painted on the glass ball, so each ornament will end up looking slightly different. The top left Christmas stocking is blue with white polka dots, the top right Christmas stocking is green with a white patch, the bottom left Christmas stocking is yellow with purple swirls and the bottom right stocking is red with white polka dots and trim. This personalized family ornament is the ideal gift for a family of 4 or 4 friends who love to get together for the holidays and have an ornament exchange.
Material: Glass
Ornaments shown on our site are personalized, as examples only, so you can see where we put the words/names you give us. Some ornaments allow you to select hair or uniform color. If there is no color choice, it is not available on that particular ornament. We will do everything possible to catch any mistakes in spelling, etc., but are not responsible if we do as you request, and it is then not correct. The ornament you see above is the way it will look when you get it, except for the personalizing instructions you give us and any optional attributes you select.

Basic fire pit Tina from Amherst, OH on 04/21/2015
This is a very basic fire pit and I must admit I have had it for a year and haven't used it. I expected something much more sturdy and durable. It is very light weight. It's not bad - just very basic and I wish I purchased something very sturdy and easy to move around. Pros: Comes with cover Cons: Thin metal and comes apart easily

Good for what it is Jason from New York on 07/23/2014 – Verified Buyer
The fireplace is a little flimsy, but works very well for what it is, and for the price. And easy to use, portable, somewhat small fire pit to hang out around, make smores, etc. The copper discolors quickly and the top bends with the heat. But it does work well, and is really nice to have around for nighttime fires.

Copper Pagoda Fireplace San from Lambertville, NJ on 04/28/2014 – Verified Buyer
The fireplace was very inexpensive, that being said, you get what you pay for. They are nice in that the fire is viewable from all 4 sides, I used them outdoors twice and the copper tops have faded as though they were years old. They still work great, and they are easy to clean out.

How Long Can You Hold Your Breath?
Their result for How Long Can You Hold Your Breath? ...
115 Seconds
As you know, you held your breath for 115 seconds. Well done!
In case you're wondering why I've made a computerized test out of this: (1) computers are almost never underwater, so if you pass out during my game, you'll be ok, and (2) you can compare how you did against everyone else just by passing the test's address along. As far as I know, this test is an original idea. To see a graph of your performance against others, scroll down to the section "Compared to Other Test Takers" - there's a green graph there and a couple stats about you.
Some quick breath-holding tips, in case you want to try again:
1. Seriously, don't practice holding your breath underwater unless you're a trained professional and with a partner. You can pass out down there.
2. Right before starting, perform a few brief big inhalations and exhalations, to get your lungs cleared of stale air and ready.
3. Minimize movement during the test. Sit still and stay cool.

SearchAll Refuges
HUNTING New Requirement for all Refuge hunters begins September, 2015
Hunting on the Refuge is allowed. Refuge rules and regulations vary from state regulations.Predominant species hunted are quail, turkey, and white-tailed deer. Squirrel and rabbits are hunted to a lesser extent. Waterfowl hunting is generally limited to small farm ponds, mine ponds, and the Marais des Cygnes River. However, during flood events, as much as 2,000 additional acres of flooded timber and old fields may become available for hunting.
Deer and spring turkey hunting are open only to those possessing a valid Refuge Access Permit. Contact the Refuge office for information on how to apply for a permit.
Spring Hunting is underway. Please note that during this time refuge staff has conducted and will conduct more prescription burning for the health of the tallgrass prairie and bottomland hardwood ecosystems. Please see the map for the locations of the burn operations.
"The application period for the Marais des Cygnes archery deer hunt is open from July 12-August 11, 2015. The drawing will be conducted through the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism's website under "Special Hunts". http://kdwpt.state.ks.us/Hunting/Special-Hunts-InformationSeventy-five access permits will be issued during the archery deer season.

The story of Jose Padilla, continuing through the events of yesterday, expresses so much of the true nature of the War on Terror and especially America's justice system. In 2002, the American citizen was arrested at Chicago's O'Hare Airport, publicly labeled by John Ashcroft as The Dirty Bomber, and then imprisoned for the next three years on U.S. soil as an "enemy combatant" without charges of any kind, and denied all contact with the outside world, including even a lawyer.…

CIA's Maneuver: A Case of Bluffing? Buying Time? Or Something More?
Last week we broke the story of the CIA issued legal threats against producers Ray Nowosielski and John Duffy on their discovery of the identities of the two key CIA analysts who executed the Tenet-Black-Blee cover-up in the case of two key 9/11 hijackers. The analysts were referred to only by first names initially, but were going to be fully named in a follow up segment.…Continue reading

9/11 remains one of the most misunderstood events in modern history. The first myth is that it came out of the blue on an unsuspecting America. In fact it is known that 11 countries provided advance warnings to the US about the 9/11 attacks, including Russia and Israel which sent 2 senior Mossad experts to Washington in August 2001 with a list of terrorist suspects that included 4 of the 9/11 hijackers, none of whom was arrested.…
By Kevin Fenton
Although the story of the CIA's actions in the run-up to 9/11 is complicated, at a fairly early point in any examination of them it becomes clear the agency committed multiple failures, and that these failures enabled the attacks to go forward. The key issue that remains in dispute ten years on is whether these "failures" were deliberate or simply the product of overwork and incompetence. Making an informed judgment means taking the time to look at all the failures, put them in order, and analyze what it all means.…

Newly published audio this week reveals that Vice President Dick Cheney's infamous Sept. 11, 2001 order to shoot down rogue civilian aircraft was ignored by military officials, who instead ordered pilots to only identify suspect aircraft.
That revelation is one of many in newly released audio recordings compiled by investigators for the 9/11 Commission, published this week by The Rutgers Law Review. Featuring voices from employees at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and American Airlines, the newly released multimedia provides a glimpse at the chaos that emerged as the attack progressed.…

August 24, 2011 Information Clearing House — — -In a few days it will be the tenth anniversary of September 11, 2001. How well has the US government's official account of the event held up over the decade?
Not very well. The chairman, vice chairman, and senior legal counsel of the 9/11 Commission wrote books partially disassociating themselves from the commission's report. They said that the Bush administration put obstacles in their path, that information was withheld from them, that President Bush agreed to testify only if he was chaperoned by Vice President Cheney and neither were put under oath, that Pentagon and FAA officials lied to the commission and that the commission considered referring the false testimony for investigation for obstruction of justice.…

Just one of the Legacies of 9/11
by Kevin Fenton Boilingfrogs
Two of the terrorist hijackers who flew a jet into the Pentagon, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar, communicated while they were in the United States to other members of al Qaeda who were overseas. But we didn't know they were here, until it was too late.
The authorization I gave the National Security Agency (NSA) after September the 11th helped address that problem in a way that is fully consistent with my constitutional responsibilities and authorities.

WASHINGTON — The last-minute deal that Congress is considering to raise the federal debt limit probably will mean trillions of dollars in government spending reductions for most agencies. But one department stands to gain: the Pentagon.
Rather than cutting $400 billion in defense spending through 2023, as President Barack Obama had proposed in April, the current debt proposal trims $350 billion through 2024, effectively giving the Pentagon $50 billion more than it had been expecting over the next decade.…

I knida know what you mean. I've had the same thing happen to some of my posts. I finally broke down and tried this new site. Now that I am getting the hang of it, it's not too bad. I do miss the siggys and birth announcement thread!
I agree! I know what you mean. I don't post on many threads anyways. So much drama over there too~
YAY!!! I am loving that more people are trying this site out and giving it a shot! Sorry you had no one respond to your post, what was it about?? Post it here!
I thought I would hate this site after all the talk but when I first tried it I did n't mind it at all and I love the faster speed and daily digest. I hate that I may not know where to find my old favorite threads though. I have been using both for awhile. And I ditto the election talk fatigue!!!!! Just wait til all the phone clals after the baby, My advice, learn how to turn off your ringers before the baby comes! I had a new phone and didn't when my last baby was born in October of an election year! Grrr! My fleeting naps were sure interupted between them and grandmothers
I switched over to NBBC a while ago, but I still check the Birth Announcements on OBBC. I noticed most of the threads have titles like "I HATE THE NBBC" or "NEW SITE SUCKS." I'm glad I switched when I did. I'm tired of the foot stomping and complaining!
Mama of one silly boy and one on the way...4 more weeks!
I still go to OBBC sometimes to check on threads that I had been following, but for the most part I made the switch. I figured I might as well, since eventually the other way will go away. And yes, I like the threads here too.

Grantmakers East Forum
Creating equal opportunities: Overcoming divides
30 September – 2 October 2015
Istanbul, Turkey
We are delighted to invite you to the 20th annual Grantmakers East Forum (GEF) from 30 September to 2 October in Istanbul, Turkey, generously hosted by Vehbi Koç Foundation.
The 2015 GEF will give you an unforgettable experience from Istanbul addressing the issue of "Creating equal opportunities: Overcoming divides". Representing the intersection between Asia and Europe, Istanbul seemed like a perfect place to host this year's GEF and to reflect this current and global theme in a historical context. Turkey is an excellent example of a variety of different cultures cohabitating and has a vibrant civil society striving for social progress, democratic changes and greater transparency.
Following last year's successful collaboration, the GEF will once again work with EFC thematic networks on Gender and Environment to design a rich content driven programme and rive common agendas. Sessions will focus on Youth employment; Social entrepreneurship; Gender-sensitive grantmaking; Fair access to resources, Freedom of expression; Social fabric in contested territories. Two workshops will also provide ideas and solutions to achieve successful storytelling and to assess impact of initiatives.
GEF will be organised in two venues located close to one another; the Koç University Research Centre for Anatolian Civilizations and the Pera Museum. Inaugurated in June 2005, Pera Museum is a private museum founded by the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation. Since its inauguration, Pera Museum collaborates annually with national and international institutions of art and education to hold exhibitions that support young artists. Koç University was established by Vehbi Koç Foundation in 1993 with the objective to increase the quality of higher education and raise well-equipped individuals with broad perspective. Since then, it has become one of the prominent universities of Turkey. Koç University's Research Centre for Anatolian Civilizations aims to develop and facilitate research on art, architecture, archaeology and history of Turkey from the Neolithic through the Ottoman era.
With a packed programme, plenty of networking time and lots of opportunities to learn, reflect and connect with peers, we hope that you will not only expand your knowledge about the issue of creating equal opportunities but also take away the beginnings of a new project or partnership to help support civil society even further.
We very much look forward to seeing you in Istanbul in September!

WARREN — A homeowner reportedly shot an armed robber three times and suffered deep cuts to his face during an encounter on Norma east of Hoover and just north of 11 Mile Road at about noon Sept. 17.
"It looks like the homeowner answered the door, and a guy at the door says, 'Is John home?' That's his brother," Warren Police Commissioner Jere Green said. "John's not home. He lets the guy come in and wait for John to come home. It looks like John sells gold out of the house."
Green said the suspect then allegedly produced a weapon and demanded gold and cash but was shot twice in the chest and once in the side by the 68-year-old resident, who retrieved a handgun from an upstairs bedroom.
"He starts to give him some of the stuff and says there's more in the bedroom under the bed," Green said. "The homeowner reaches under the bed to get more gold and comes out with his weapon."
The homeowner told police a struggle ensued after he shot the suspect and that the two men fought for a few minutes. The resident suffered deep lacerations on his face when he was beaten with the suspect's handgun.
Green said the suspect allegedly made it to a waiting car and that the driver dropped the suspect off at Warren's St. John Macomb-Oakland Hospital before he sped away. Police continued to search for the suspect vehicle at press time. The suspect's condition was not immediately known.
Green said the homeowner was also transported to a hospital for treatment.
Police reportedly recovered two weapons at the home and were still in the process of executing a search warrant at 2 p.m. Sept. 17.

Mehdi Hasan exposes misconceptions about the continent
Explore Japan through its offbeat train culture
20 Dec 2012 13:28 GMT | Israel
Ben White is a freelance journalist, writer and activist, specialising in Palestine/Israel.
At the main checkpoint to enter Bethlehem there is a large sign placed on the Separation Wall by Israel's ministry of tourism which says "Peace be with you". An appropriate symbol for Israel's colonial strangling of the "little town", this propaganda for pilgrims is a crude microcosm of Israel's habit of talking "co-existence" while pursuing apartheid.
Over decades of Israeli military rule, more and more land around the city has been annexed, expropriated and colonised, with 19 illegal settlements now in the governorate. Eighty percent of an estimated 22 square kilometre of land confiscated from the north of the Bethlehem region was annexed to the Jerusalem municipality in order to expand settlements (see this briefing).
Beit Sahour, home of the Shepherds' Fields where it is said the
At the main checkpoint to enter Bethlehem there is a large sign placed on the Separation Wall by Israel's ministry of tourism which says "Peace be with you". An appropriate symbol for Israel's colonial strangling of the "little town", this propaganda for pilgrims is a crude microcosm of Israel's habit of talking "co-existence" while pursuing apartheid.
Beit Sahour, home of the Shepherds' Fields where it is said the angels announced the birth of Jesus, has been hit hard by Israel's colonial regime, losing 17 percent of its land to the expansion of Jerusalem's municipal boundaries. The Wall loops around 10 percent of the Bethlehem region's land, and the UN estimates that only 13 percent of the governorate is available for Palestinian use. In and around the city, there are over 30 physical barriers to Palestinian freedom of movement imposed by the Israeli military. Bethlehem has been isolated and fragmented in a way that would devastate any town or community the world over.
Palestinians from Bethlehem, of course, must apply for permits to enter occupied (and illegally annexed) East Jerusalem - while the Israeli citizens living in the neighbouring Jewish settlements come and go as they please. The two cities are increasingly disconnected, with plans for Israeli colonies like Givat Hamatos intended to "complete the ring that will cut off East Jerusalem completely from the southern West Bank".
Live Box 201211181287839480
Bethlehem continues to suffer from severe challenges when it comes to developing its tourism-dependent economy. For example, Palestinian tour guides have not been able to enter Israel since 2000, while Israeli tour operators shape itineraries in a way that favours hotels in Jerusalem and means visitors simply dash in and out of Bethlehem. The current unemployment rate stands at around 21 percent, the highest of any West Bank region.
Keen to distract from the impact of years of Israeli colonial control, Israel's defenders try to make out that the city's Christian Palestinians are the target of a "jihad" by their Muslim neighbours - and that "persecution" is the reason for the Christian population's shrinking numbers. Yet surveys - see here, here and here - consistently bear out the logical conclusion that the main emigration "push" factors are economic, political and rooted in Israeli occupation. A 2006 poll of Bethlehem residents found that 78 percent of Christian respondents cited "Israeli aggression and occupation" as "the main cause of emigration".
Instead of just an annual reminder of the city's plight, there are ways that people around the world, including or perhaps especially churches, can support Bethlehem and the rights of its inhabitants. One way is to go there and stay there, building into a group itinerary time to sleep in the city's hotels and visit the various historical and religious sites, restaurants and artisan shops.
You can also help Bethlehem by listening to the voices like those of Kairos Palestine, who recently released a statement to mark three years since the Christian Palestinian call for action from churches worldwide. They ask supporters of human rights to heed the call for boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) until Israel complies with international law and all the Palestinian people's rights are realised.
At a time of year when platitudes and wishes for peace are common place, the words of Kairos remind us that the little town of Bethlehem, like the rest of Palestine, needs a lot more than sentiment:
The aim of BDS is not revenge but rather achieving justice, equality and ending the injustice imposed on the Palestinian people. Edward Said said: "Either equality or nothing."
