This frame was specially designed for genuine power women. Graceful design and expressiveness are interspersed with classical chic. Eyewear is in. Full rim is extremely popular, because you feel that you get more eyeglass for your money.

The oval shape suits almost any type and is a particularly good choice for those who prefer unobtrusive eyeglasses. This oval frame is particularly suitable for heart-shaped faces, but also suits every other face shape, because the LJ638S is a real all-rounder. Plastic is a very lightweight and flexible material. This ensures a long life and a high level of comfort. The bold colour blue is the perfect choice for self-confident personalities. With this colour you quickly become the centre of attention. You can rely on the guaranteed UV400 protection, for all the sunglasses in our shop.
The model has already been ordered and will shortly be back in stock. If you order now, you will get the reduced price and once the goods arrive, we will send you your new Liu Jo on the same day.

This was a great show, I've never had more respect for Ishe. I'm pulling for Surgar Shay in a fight I wasn't really looking forward too. I don't always agree with you guys but tonight was a great show. Thanks…Comment by killakali on 02-05-2013

i dont get these comments,,this is a crazy story that keeps you guessing throughout, i wish more films were like this and make you think outside the box but i guess most people have small attention spans and need a very basic easy to follow storyline with pretty actors and special effects, sigh*

Pretty bad acting and it was long and boring in parts. Good luck finishing this one
|Posted by one4daplayas 5 years, 2 months ago
Titles lasted 5 mins. and the nae of the film should be spelt 15 'til midnight. The main character was not convincing as a heterosexual man.
|Posted by Alan074 5 years, 2 months ago
I am apt to agree with one4daplayas. The main guy must have been sleeping with the director or something because he came off as a straight man as much as RuPaul would. Bad acting, I couldn't finish it. Skip this one. 1/5

The lead actor looked better when wearing a bennie - without one his forehead was too big. And his nose was too red. Apart from that is was a strange movie.

There is one mode in which history may be most easily, perhaps most usefully, approached. Let him who desires to find profit in it, begin by knowing something of the lives of great men. Not of those most talked about, not of names chosen at hazard; but of the real great ones who can be shown to have left their mark upon distant ages. Know their lives, not merely as interesting studies of character, or as persons seen in a drama, but as they represent and influence their age. Not for themselves only must we know them, but as the expression and types of all that is noblest around them. Let us know those whom all men cannot fail to recognise as great —the Caesars, the Charlemagnes, the Alfreds, the Cromwells, great in themselves, but greater as the centre of the efforts of thousands.

We have done much towards understanding the past when we have learned to value and to honour such men. It is almost better to know nothing of history than to know with the narrow coldness of a pedant a record which ought to fill us with emotion and reverence. Our closest friends, our earliest teachers, our parents themselves, are not more truly our benefactors than they. To them we owe what we prize most — country, freedom, peace, knowledge, art, thought, and higher sense of right and wrong. What a tale of patience, courage, sacrifice, and martyrdom is the history of human progress! It affects us as if we were reading in the diary of a parent the record of his struggles for his children. For us they toiled, endured, bled, and died; that we by their labour might have rest, by their thoughts might know, by their death might live happily. For whom did these men work, if not for us?

Werner Laurie, 1914), p. 214:

There comes a time when nothing seems worth while; when gaiety palls, and even sorrow dulls instead of stirs; when nothing seems of any use, and one feels inclined to give up, to give up. — To such I would say, pull on thick boots, clutch a stout stick, and go for a country walk — rain or shine. — It sounds a preposterous remedy, but try it. Nature never gives up. Not a pygmy weed, trodden under foot of man, and covered up and overwhelmed with rival growths, but battles for its life with vim. Nor does it ask for what it battles. Neither does it question why more favoured plants are so carefully nurtured, and it, poor thing, is dragged up by the roots. — Take a country walk, and look at the weeds if at nothing else.

If you want to be remembered as a clever person and even as a benefactor of humanity, don't write a novel, or even talk about it: instead, compile tables of compound interest, assemble weather data running back seventy-five years, or develop in tabular form improved actuarial information. All more useful than anything "creative" most people could come up with, and less likely to subject the author to neglect, if not ridicule and contempt. In addition, it will be found that most people who seek attention and regard by announcing that they're writing a novel are actually so devoid of narrative talent that they can't hold the attention of a dinner table for thirty seconds, even with a dirty joke.

Let us imagine a small colony of mice in a great cathedral, getting a poor livelihood out of Communion crumbs and taper-droppings. Could any of them by much deep speculation comprehend the origin, the plan, the purpose of the cathedral, the meaning of the altar, the significance of the ritual, the clashing of the bells, the ringing of the chants, the thunderous trepidations of the organ? Yet a mouse explaining the final causes of all these things would be incomparably less absurd than is a divine or sage expounding the mysteries of Nature or God. The discreeter mice would limit themselves to noticing and remembering that certain periods and ceremonies were marked by more numerous tapers burning, whence came more grease on the floor, and by noting the spots where grease did more abound. These would be the practical philosophers among the mice, positivists or utilitarians; and if while grease was to be had, other mice lost their time in demonstrating that the final cause of a great Church festival was to increase the harvest of taper-droppings for their species, these shrewder mice would not stay to dispute the point with them, but would be off to their jolly feast of Candlemas.

Thomas Common (New York: Macmillan, 1911), pp. 78-79:

Work and Ennui. — In respect to seeking work for the sake of the pay, almost all men are alike at present in civilised countries; to all of them work is a means, and not itself the end; on which account they are not very select in the choice of the work, provided it yields an abundant profit. But still there are rarer men who would rather perish than work without delight in their labour: the fastidious people, difficult to satisfy, whose object is not served by an abundant profit, unless the work itself be the reward of all rewards. Artists and contemplative men of all kinds belong to this rare species of human beings; and also the idlers who spend their life in hunting and travelling, or in love-affairs and adventures. They all seek toil and trouble in so far as these are associated with pleasure, and they want the severest and hardest labour, if it be necessary. In other respects, however, they have a resolute indolence, even should impoverishment, dishonour, and danger to health and life be associated therewith. They are not so much afraid of ennui as of labour without pleasure; indeed they require much ennui, if their work is to succeed with them. For the thinker and for all inventive spirits ennui is the unpleasant "calm" of the soul which precedes the happy voyage and the dancing breezes; he must endure it, he must await the effect it has on him: — it is precisely this which lesser natures cannot at all experience!
Die fröhliche Wissenschaft is in Vol. 12 of the Musarion edition of Nietzsche's works but it is one of the volumes I have yet to find online. So for the original, see Vol. 5 of Alfred Kröner's edition (Stuttgart, 1921), pp. 78-79.

Ce qui est vraiment indispensable [when writing], c'est d'avoir à sa disposition un arsenal de mots assez fourni pour que l'on puisse y trouver, à point nommé, l'expression la plus appropriée à sa pensée et traduire les nuances les plus délicates du sentiment. L'écrivain qui sait tirer le meilleur parti de sa langue est celui qui en a dévoilé tous les secrets. Elle ressemble à une mine qui ne consent à livrer ses richesses qu'au prix des plus grands efforts. Mais dès qu'on a trouvé le filon et extrait le métal précieux, dès que les trésors s'offrent à profusion, l'Art sort triomphant des luttes qu'il a fallu soutenir. Le lecteur se doute rarement des fatigues intellectuelles qui sont cachées dans chaque ligne, dans chaque mot des œuvres qu'il admire le plus. Il n'a pas assisté au labeur déployé, à la lente préparation, à la ciselure patiente! Il ignore les veilles et les insomnies que ces pages ont parfois coûtées à leur auteur. Mais qu'importent les déboires et les souffrances qu'entraîne cette culture intensive de l'esprit si l'on sent en soi les forces voulues pour créer une belle floraison littéraire?

Dentu, 1851), translated and quoted by William Blades in The Enemies of Books (London: Trübner & Co., 1880), pp. 43-44:

The Poet Boccacio, when travelling in Apulia, was anxious to visit the celebrated Convent of Mount Cassin, especially to see its library of which he had heard much. He accosted, with great courtesy, one of the Monks whose countenance attracted him, and begged him to have the kindness to show him the library.

'See for yourself,' said the Monk, brusquely, pointing at the same time to an old stone staircase, broken with age. Boccace hastily mounted in great joy at the prospect of a grand bibliographical treat. Soon he reached the room which was without key or even door as a protection to its treasures. What was his astonishment to see that the grass growing in the window sills actually darkened the room, and that all the books and seats were an inch thick in dust. In utter astonishment he lifted one book after another. All were manuscripts of extreme antiquity, but all were dreadfully dilapidated. Many had lost whole sections which had been violently extracted, and in many all the blank margins of the vellum had been cut away. In fact, the mutilation was thorough.

Grieved at seeing the work and the wisdom of so many illustrious men fallen into the hands of custodians so unworthy, Boccace descended with tears in his eyes. In the cloisters he met another Monk, and enquired of him how the MSS. had become so mutilated. 'Oh!' he replied, 'we are obliged, you know, to earn a few sous for our needs, so we cut away the blank margins of the Manuscripts for writing upon, and make of them small books of devotion which we sell to women and children.'

Translations must be attempted; they have their uses, but their value must not be over-estimated. In scientific, historical, and philosophical works their value is in proportion to the faithfulness with which they translate the exact language and intention of the original; and there are literal translations of poems, the sole aim of which is to render as exactly and literally as possible the words and meanings of the originals, but such translations are not in themselves works of art. The translator may delight in what he is so ploddingly and accurately and conscientiously accomplishing, but he delights not in either the thought or the manner of expressing the thought. There are, however, translations which are works of art, translations in which the translator delighted in both the thought and its expression, in which his own individuality is given full play. Such a translation is Fitzgerald's rendering of the "Rubaiyat" of Omar Khayyam. That Khayyam lived at Nishapur in the beginning of the twelfth century is known; that he was a tent-maker and an astronomer is also known; but what he really believed no man knows, and whether he belonged to this sect or that sect no man can tell; according to some, his poems contain mystic allusions to the Deity; according to others, he meant simply what he said and sang, the Epicurean philosophy, eat, drink, for to-morrow ye die. But what the Persian tent-maker really thought was of less importance to Fitzgerald than his own reflections suggested by the original. The original appealed to him; he accepted the old tent-maker at his word, and took delight in rendering in his own manner the original as he understood it; and yet with his translation he took infinite pains. He himself said, "I suppose very few people have ever taken such pains in translation as I have, though certainly not to be literal."

Jeremy Taylor, "The Epicure's Feast," Selections From the Works of Jeremy Taylor (Boston: Little, Brown, and Company, 1865), pp. 93-95:

Maximus Tyrius considers concerning the felicity of Diogenes, a poor Sinopean, having not so much nobility as to be born in the better parts of Greece: but he saw that he was compelled by no tyrant to speak or do ignobly; he had no fields to till, and therefore took no care to buy cattle, and to hire servants; he was not distracted when a rent-day came, and feared not when the wise Greeks played the fool and fought who should be lord of that field that lay between Thebes and Athens; he laughed to see men scramble for dirty silver, and spend ten thousand Attic talents for the getting the revenues of two hundred philippics; he went with his staff and bag into the camp of the Phocenses, and the soldiers reverenced his person and despised his poverty, and it was truce with him whosoever had wars; and the diadem of kings and the purple of the emperors, the mitre of high priests and the divining-staff of soothsayers, were things of envy and ambition, the purchase of danger, and the rewards of a mighty passion; and men entered into them by trouble and extreme difficulty, and dwelt under them as a man under a falling roof, or as Damocles under the tyrant's sword, sleeping like a condemned man; and let there be what pleasure men can dream of in such broken slumbers, yet the fear of waking from this illusion, and parting from this fantastic pleasure, is a pain and torment which the imaginary felicity cannot pay for.

All our trouble is from within us; and if a dish of lettuce and a clear fountain can cool all my heats, so that I shall have neither thirst nor pride, lust nor revenge, envy nor ambition, I am lodged in the bosom of felicity; and, indeed, no men sleep so soundly as they that lay their head upon nature's lap. For a single dish, and a clean chalice lifted from the springs, can cure my hunger and thirst; but the meat of Ahasuerus's feast cannot satisfy my ambition and my pride. He, therefore, that hath the fewest desires and the most quiet passions, whose wants are soon provided for, and whose possessions cannot be disturbed with violent fears, he that dwells next door to satisfaction, and can carry his needs and lay them down where he pleases, — this man is the happy man; and this is not to be done in great designs and swelling fortunes.

Frank Hunter Potter (New York: Harper and Brothers, 1922), pp. 188-189:

The Emperor was infinitely fond of reading. The Greek and Roman historians were often in his hands, especially Plutarch. He could appreciate this excellent author more than anyone else. Therefore The Lives of Illustrious Men always appeared on the shelves of his campaign libraries. He often read Rollin. The history of the middle ages, modern history, and particular histories occupied him only casually. The only religious book which he had was the Bible. He liked to read over in it the chapters which he had heard read in the ruins of the ancient cities of Syria. They painted for him the customs of those countries and the patriarchal life of the desert. It was, he said, a faithful picture of what he had seen with his own eyes. Every time that he read Homer it was with a new admiration. No one, in his view, had known what was truly beautiful and great better than this author; consequently he often took him up again and read him from the first page to the last.
Ibid., p. 190:

If the Emperor had in his hands a book which interested him he would never lay it down till he knew it thoroughly. He read with his thumb, as the Abbé de Pradt said, yet nothing of its contents escaped him, and he knew it so well that long afterward he could make a detailed analysis of it, and even cite textually, so to speak, the passages which had struck him the most. If he heard anything spoken of with which he was not familiar, or of which he knew nothing, he would have all the books in his library in which it might possibly be treated of brought to him at once. He was not satisfied with a superficial knowledge; he went into the matter as deeply as possible. This was the way in which he proceeded to enlighten himself and to furnish his mind.

Paul V. Cohn (London: George Allen & Unwin Ltd., 1924), p. 310:

§220 REACTION AGAINST THE CIVILISATION OF MACHINERY. The machine, itself a product of the highest mental powers, sets in motion hardly any but the lower, unthinking forces of the men who serve it. True, it unfetters a vast quantity of force which would otherwise lie dormant. But it does not communicate the impulse to climb higher, to improve, to become artistic. It creates activity and monotony, but this in the long run produces a counter-effect, a despairing ennui of the soul, which through machinery has learnt to hanker after the variety of leisure.
Ibid., p. 342:

§288 HOW FAR MACHINERY HUMILIATES. Machinery is impersonal; it robs the piece of work of its pride, of the individual merits and defects that cling to all work that is not machine-made in other words, of its bit of humanity. Formerly, all buying from handicraftsmen meant a mark of distinction for their personalities, with whose productions people surrounded themselves. Furniture and dress accordingly became the symbols of mutual valuation and personal connection. Nowadays, on the other hand, we seem to live in the midst of anonymous and impersonal serfdom. We must not buy the facilitation of labour too dear.

We like you, Glorious Dead:
You are so amiable, amenable.
For two moments a year
We share your creditable silence,
It is so profitable and so profound,
You help us to think thoughts peaceful and holy,
And we are dumb,
Ecstatically insane.

But you, Insuperable Residuum,
What is to be done with you
Who died a threefold death and yet survive?
You are anachronisms,
Unpeaceable things like Russians and Irishmen.
Do not speak of ideals, do not shout of triumph,
(Before whose smoking gun
Bloodless as a reed the dead one lies):
No one has ever seen a vision without fear,
And we who are whole need not to see visions,
We need only peace and humility.
Once having lived the life of the dead
Why can't you hawk your collar studs in silence
And vend your matches with a meeker air?
We can praise, O devoutly we can praise
The glorious death of the dead,
But the death of the living why should we magnify?
If we cannot think our peaceful and holy thoughts
We must vomit;
And remember,
We have truncheons for you, guns for you,
Ah, we can give you bayonets and beans!

We are what we read almost as much as we are what we think. When we express an opinion of a book we label ourselves. The romantic will hunt through books for romance, the historian for statistics and facts, the statesman for policy and methods, the poet for beauty and ideals, and the philosopher for everything. We take from the author mainly the gift of our sleeping selves — some portion of us so quiescent we hardly recognise it till some one of the great band of embodiers brings it up to the rim of consciousness. We draw out a clearer, better-defined outline of our blurred and dim perceptions. After all, even in books, the statement holds true that we receive but what we give. Or at best, we receive what we are fitted to extract.

There is no human relation which walking cannot promote: with whomsoever you would be friends, you must first do the things in which walking so conspicuously assists — that is, you must clear the brain of feathers and fireworks, settle the mind well back on itself, and link the present firmly on to the past. For some, maybe, the aged and infirm, the walking days are over; and to these you can only talk. But you will find, if you are fortunate, that you are not debarred from their friendship. It is not only that they may speak to you of the walks of their youth, enlarging the distances and diminishing the times, for the abasement of the present generation, while you sit admiring the kindly law of nature by which memory passes so easily into imagination. Even if they have not been walkers, there is still a kinship between you; for the sixtieth year is like the eighteenth mile — the point at which you settle into your stride for the last stage, and the essence of the preceding miles begins to distil itself in your brain, emerging clear and translucent from the turbid mass of experience. Remember the metaphor which Socrates used to Cephalus. 'I love,' he said, 'talking to the very old; for, it seems to me, we ought to ask them, as men far advanced on a track which we too may have to walk, what it is like, rough and difficult or easy and smooth.'

In our utilitarian age people have said and repeated in every way that higher education, as it has been constituted since the sixteenth century, no longer meets the needs of democracy, which lives, they say, upon industry, trade, and agriculture. This is only true up to a point; it has not been demonstrated that the study of letters, properly understood, is inappropriate for these three sources of wealth. Nor has it been shown that a scholar, blessed with a sharp mind, is unsuited to business. However, these are two ways of misunderstanding the question. Besides the fact that man does not live by bread alone, our opponents forget the paramount thing, namely that college does not and should not claim to prepare students to take up lucrative careers immediately. That is the job of technical schools. College only seeks to accomplish one thing, namely the regular and concurrent development of all the faculties. For the mind as for the body it should be a plain gymnasium in the Greek sense of the word, where the wrestler prepares himself for the struggle of life. In the simplest terms, it is a training ground where the mind learns to learn. It need not be concerned about the immediate application of knowledge, which is the responsibility of graduate or professional schools. The humanities are intended to form what in the seventeenth century was known as l'honnête homme, which is to say a gentleman in the literary and moral sense, one able to take his place in a society he is called to serve according to his own lights. Let us ask no more of them.

Wanting to have children is wanting to take revenge for one's past. For a woman it is to make a gift of her hate to her own mother and for a man it is to compete with his father or with God in the idiotic fantasy of posterity. And for each couple it is a remedy for despair. When life has failed to live up to our expectations, when we have given up on our own self-creation, when we have the foreboding thought that everything is screwed, instead of heading off to the morgue we gather our family and those who are close to us in a place that is even more sinister because it is more vulgar: motherhood.

Vouloir des enfants, c'est vouloir se venger de son passé. C'est pour la femme faire don à sa propre mère de sa haine et pour l'homme rivaliser avec son père ou avec Dieu dans le fantasme imbécile d'une postérité. Et c'est pour chaque couple un remède au désespoir. Quand la vie a trompé nos attentes, quand on a renoncé à se créer soi-même, quand on pressent que tout est foutu, alors plutôt que de se rendre à la morgue, on convie sa famille et ses proches dans un lieu plus sinistre encore, parce que plus kitsch : la maternité.

But if we could from one of the battlements of Heaven espy how many men and women at this time lie fainting and dying for want of bread, how many young men are hewn down by the sword of War, how many poor Orphans are now weeping over the graves of their father, by whose life they were enabled to eat; if we could but hear how many Mariners and Passengers are at this present in a storm, and shriek out because their keel dashes against a Rock or bulges under them, how many people there are that weep with want, and are mad with oppression, or are desperate by too quick a sense of a constant infelicity; in all reason we should be glad to be out of the noise and participation of so many evils. This is a place of sorrows and tears, of great evils and a constant calamity: let us remove from hence, at least in affections and preparation of mind.

Each artist must find an individual solution to the dilemma which is implicit in his acceptance of society. To a few who are favoured by tradition and wealth the solution may come easily; they have probably nothing to fear but the uneasy conscience of the rentier and the envy of their colleagues. But for most artists some form of sacrifice or renunciation is involved: they must surrender their isolation; they must subordinate their artistic ideals to the baser demands of entertainment. Or they may prefer to keep their ideals and curtail their ambitions. But this alternative is apt to bring with it an occasional bitterness of the spirit. One willingly throws ballast overboard so long as it consists of replaceable things; but when we come to the children of our imagination, then the hand is reluctant.

Literature consists of all the books — and they are not so many — where moral truth and human passion are touched with a certain largeness, sanity, and attraction of form. My notion of the literary student is one who through books explores the strange voyages of man's moral reason, the impulses of the human heart, the chances and changes that have overtaken human ideals of virtue and happiness, of conduct and manners, and the shifting fortunes of great conceptions of truth and virtue. Poets, dramatists, humorists, satirists, masters of fiction, the great preachers, the character-writers, the maxim-writers, the great political orators — they are all literature in so far as they teach us to know what makes literature, rightly sifted and selected and rightly studied, not the mere elegant trifling that it is so often and so erroneously supposed to be, but a proper instrument for a systematic training of the imagination and sympathies, and of a genial and varied moral sensibility.

Horace's Epistles are a mine of genial, friendly, humane observation. Then there is none of the ancient moralists to whom the modern, from Montaigne, Charron, Ralegh, Bacon, downwards, owe more than to Seneca. Seneca has no spark of the kindly warmth of Horace; he has not the animation of Plutarch; he abounds too much in the artificial and extravagant paradoxes of the Stoics. But, for all that, he touches the great and eternal commonplaces of human occasion — friendship, health, bereavement, riches, poverty, death — with a hand that places him high among the wise masters of life. All through the ages men tossed in the beating waves of circumstance have found more abundantly in the essays and letters of Seneca than in any other secular writer words of good counsel and comfort. And let this fact not pass, without notice of the light that it sheds on the fact of the unity of literature, and of the absurdity of setting a wide gulf between ancient or classical literature and modern, as if under all dialects the partakers in Graeco-Roman civilisation, whether in Athens, Rome, Paris, Weimar, Edinburgh, London, Dublin, were not the heirs of a great common stock of thought as well as of speech.

In a company of learned men there was talk about posthumous fame. Some said that it was a strong motive to exertion with many persons. Others maintained that its potency as a motive was very small indeed, except with a few half-crazy people, like Alexander the Great. All agreed that it was a foolish motive as applied to the mass of men, because anything that was worthy of the name of "fame" was unattainable for them.

A man writes an elaborate work upon a learned subject. In a few years' time, another man writes an elaborate work upon the same learned subject, and is kind enough to allude to the former author in a foot-note. Twenty or thirty years afterwards, this second man's work is also absorbed in a similar manner; and his labours, too, are chronicled in a foot-note. Now, the first man's fame, if you come to look at it carefully, is but small. His labours are kindly alluded to in a foot-note of a work which is also kindly alluded to in a foot-note of a work published forty or fifty years hence.

Surely this fame in a foot-note is not much worth having.

All round amazing
As a first time customer to Sportsbikeshop I was first of all attracted by the great prices. Looking for a new AGV helmet their site came up top from a quick online price check. Just about everything I looked at was in stock, placed an order and received it two days later. Brilliant. My new helmet also came with a free tinted race visor which was a bonus! The helmet itself is just awesome, really comfy fit and nice and light. In use the helmet is quiet and the ventilation works really well, it's a joy to use. The 50% smoke race visor is actually darker than it first appears and works superbly well in bright sunshine. The front visor opening button is a little tricky to get used to (always has side ones on Arai and Shoei helmets) but I'm sure it will become second nature after a bit more use. Foggy anti fog 'nose cones' for some reason the Velcro won't stick to the inside of the AGV helmet, so don't bother buying one like I did! The helmet comes with an anti fog visor insert anyway so this shouldn't be a problem. The service is also spot on. I called to ask a few questions on other products and I received really friendly & helpful advice without having to wait on hold for ages! Couldn't recommend highly enough.Read more
Super light
Fits so much better in a S compared to my previous M AGV. A little tight initially around the temples but once broken in fits snugly. Very very light and so much more aerodynamic-much less wind buffeting. A tad hot and noisy with the vents open but no big deal and ear plugs solves the wind issue. The included Pinlock, breath guard and chin curtain are all great. Looks better quality than the Arai's I also looked at.Read more
Superbly subtle replica
Bought this as my 1st helmet so don't really have anything to compare it too, but very comfy and fits great, possibly a tad tight around the cheek bones but having tried the next size up this is definitely the right size. Looks awesome, great design and very subtle for a replica. And the discount makes it even better. Arrived exactly when SBS said.Read more

The Obama Doctrine is Ravaging the Middle East
There can never be a free Palestine without Palestinians first freeing themselves from factional repression, for which only they are ultimately responsible.
Yes, I am a Muslim, but I don't love the America you stand for and represent…
This article is based on interviews with Palestinian refugees from Syria.
ISIS is only a component of a much larger and disturbing course of violence that is rooted in foreign intervention.
I, like millions of Palestinians, know precisely what racism is and what oppression feels like.
Business as usual will return to the Turkish-Israeli relations, while Gazans are trapped behind fences, walls and barbered wire.
One can only hope that, after Brexit, the efforts of pro-peace countries will work to end Israel's military occupation and demand justice for Palestine.
While Israelis, including illegal West Bank settlements, use the vast majority of it, Palestinians are sold their own water back at high prices.
Gaza remains a place of poets, artists, dabka dancers and untamable spirits of utterly resilient and refreshingly stubborn people.
The Palestinian Authority's enthusiasm about the French initiative shrouds its role as Israel's collaborator regime in occupied Palestine.
When the likes of Moshe Ya'alon becomes the face of morality in Israel, once can understand why Israel's future brings little hope.
Palestinians must demolish many years of Israeli disinformation predicated on a make-believe historical discourse that has been sold to the world as fact.
The Palestinian 'Nakba' must be understood as part and parcel of the larger western designs in the Middle East dating back a century.
Criticizing violent political movements and the behavior of any state that violates international law and human rights is a moral duty.
His statue may now stand in Ramallah, but Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian Authority do not embody the spirit of Nelson Mandela.
The outcome of the ill-fated 'Arab Spring' was a massive letdown, if not betrayal, not just of Palestinians, but of most Arabs.
Mahmoud Abbas is but one member of a class of usurpers who collaborate with Israel to help it manage its continued occupation of Palestine.
The world needs to act to end Israel's impunity for its violent crimes against the Palestinians.

Callaspo back, others close for Angels
Alberto Callaspo is back and Scott Downs might be back sooner than later: It was an afternoon of good news for the Angels following their 5-1 series-opening loss to Baltimore on Thursday night.
Oh, and Jerome Williams is taking Garrett Richards' spot in the rotation. He'll take the ball Sunday against the Orioles.
Friday night at Angel Stadium, left-hander Jason Vargas will go for his third straight solid start against Baltimore right-hander Miguel Gonzalez. Callaspo is in the lineup, hitting seventh and playing third for the first time since he strained his right calf April 11.
"The soreness is gone," Callaspo said Friday. "Everything's gone."
With shortstop Erick Aybar atop the lineup for the fourth straight day, Mike Scioscia's squad is starting to look more like it was supposed to look this year. Only Peter Bourjos (hamstring) is missing, and J.B. Shuck continues to step in for him in left field Friday.
The bullpen is still another story, although Downs' right rib cage was feeling much better Friday, according to Scioscia, and right-hander Mark Lowe could be activated as soon as Saturday.
Albert Pujols is playing first base again, but Scioscia said that doesn't mean he's feeling his plantar fasciitis is feeling significantly better -- Pujols is just fighting through it.
Struggling slugger Josh Hamilton is the designated hitter. It sounds like he'll be back in the outfield for Saturday's day game, with Pujols probably DHing.

32% discount at 16. I don't get it.alf
Usually right when someone says "It's time to move on" or "I'm done with this POS" is exactly when it's time to buy.
#NGD (When it hit the 7s),
#BRLI (When it hit 12s after a hit piece from the sweeper)
#MAKO (When it hit 12s),
#GEOY (When it dropped below 20, and even hit 15s)
#AFFY (During consolidation periods after each jump)
So what?
So his $6M investment doubles and the NAV increases by the amount he's already lost but not reported post June in Facebook and Intevac.
The logic on this board is bizarre.
SolarCity also has a commercial solar-power business and is planning an initial public offering later this year, which could value the company at $1.5 billion.
I think Solar City will do an IPO within 9 months unless the market tanks.
BDCs that pay little or nothing in the way of a dividend (ACAS, MVC, SAR) etc trade between 25 and 40% below value. It is just the way it is.
I guess corporate finance people would say it is the discount of future management costs.
Why didn't they invest much this quarter?
They haven't invested much since inception 16 months ago. They have never had less than 70% of their money in cash while taking a 2% rake on that cash.
Would you invest the cash if you didn't have to? Wouldn't a wiser strategy be to sit on 100% cash, take 2%, pare operations to nothing, and thrive on a dependable big revenue stream?
Yeah, the price makes no rational sense, people must just assume they're going to lose all their cash investing in what is perceived as a bursting bubble in the social media space, when in reality they'll be able to put this cash to work when prices are lower.
90% of closed end funds trade at discounts. 25% trade at discounts greater than 25%. Very few closed end funds charge a 2% management fee ON CASH, which is what they're doing AND take 20% off the top on any gains. Do you realize they took a management fee of $850K last quarter to manage no more than $35M invested? That's an annualized 10% management fee!!!! And that doesn't consider the fund managers annualized 9% loss for the decade 2000 - 2010 nor the -50% return on invested capital since the fund started in April 2011. You do realize that the fund lost ~50% of the average daily invested capital in the past 15 months, right? And the next report will include another $6M or so loss on Facebook as the stock price was around $30 on 6/30 and is now around $20 = 600,000 shares X $10/share loss.
So what is it you boneheads don't get? If they invest it, they'll lose it as they've done for many years and most recently with Facebook. If they keep the cash, then they're just raking 2% for doing nothing and will be forced by shareholders and the board to invest it and lose it.
Pretty simple.

A toxin that can irritate skin and potentially kill dogs has been identified in three Manawatu rivers.
Caused by blue/green algae, cyanobacteria has been found in the Oroua River near Feilding, at Horseshoe Bend near Tokomaru and in the Mangatainoka River at State Highway 2.
Horizons water quality spokesman Barry Gilliland said it was not yet known whether this particular strain of cyanobacteria was toxic but preliminary testing was under way.
"The slimy, black algae can bloom very quickly in warmer weather and will appear as a shiny black mat on the rocks," Gilliland said.
Warning signs would be erected at the two spots and swimmers were advised to check for the algae before swimming in other areas.
"If you are concerned your dog may have eaten the algae it is recommended you contact your veterinarian immediately," he said.
Blue/green algae is present in small quantities in most of the region's rivers year round. In favourable conditions, such as during periods of warm water temperature and low flow, it can become a health risk at some sites.
On Thursday, MidCentral District Health Board health protection officer Peter Wood warned conditions were right for the algae to grow.
Horizons yesterday confirmed the algae at the three locations and was monitoring other swimming spots.
Wood said the algae often had a strong, musty smell.
"Swimming and contact with the water is not advisable when these mats are visible and covering more than half the river bed. Boiling water does not remove toxins produced by the cyanobacteria and drinking of the water should be avoided at all times."
