Dale Looney, with the Carthage Kiwanis Club, said the hot weather is forcing the club to open Kiddieland later in the day.
Looney said Kiddieland will open at 5 p.m. and volunteer club members will remain until kids and family members have left, or 8 p.m., which ever is later.
"We'll stay open until everyone has had a chance to ride, but if no one is around and it doesn't look like anyone else is coming around 7 p.m., we'll go ahead and go home," Looney said.
Normal days of operation are Saturday and Sunday and holidays in the summer.
The classic amusement park, located at Carthage's Municipal Park on West Oak Street, will be open on Thursday, July 4 for kids to ride the train and the other classic rides. Looney said volunteers will open the park at 5 p.m. on July 4.
All rides are 50 cents each and the proceeds are used by the Kiwanis Club to support a variety of causes for young people, including the Cerebral Palsy Center of Tri-County, Jasper County Widowed Women and Associates baby quilt program and others.

Thor-ah-sick A-or-tick An-your-is-um
A thoracic aortic aneurysm repair is a surgery to fix a problem in the aorta. The aorta is the largest blood vessel in the body. It starts at the heart and passes down through the chest and abdomen. The thoracic aorta is the part of the aorta in the chest. The aorta carries blood from the heart to blood vessels that supply the lower body.
This is a major surgery.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
This surgery may be needed if you have an aneurysm of the aorta. An aneurysm is a weakened area of the blood vessel. It can cause the blood vessel to bulge out. A large aneurysm may burst and cause severe bleeding.
Your doctor will review potential problems, like:
Smoking and heavy alcohol use may increase the risk of problems.
Talk to your doctor about these risks before the procedure.
Before surgery, your doctor may ask for:
Your doctor may also ask you to:
Let your doctor know about any medications or supplements you may be taking.
General anesthesia will be used. It will block pain and keep you asleep during the surgery.
The surgeon will make an incision in your chest. Clamps will be placed on the aorta above and below the aneurysm. The damaged part of the aorta will be removed. A graft will replace the damaged part of the aorta. The graft is a type of man-made tube. It will be stitched into place. Blood will be able to flow through the graft. When the aorta is repaired, the clamps will be removed. Your doctor will look for any leaks.
If you need additional heart surgery, it may be done at this time. The chest incision will then be closed with stitches or staples
After the operation, you will be taken to the recovery room. Your heart, blood pressure and other vital signs will be monitored.
2-4 hours
Anesthesia prevents pain during surgery. You will be given pain medication to help manage pain during recovery.
The usual length of stay is 7 days. If you have any problems, you may need to stay longer.

The reaction of an antibody with an antigen other than the one that gave rise to it.
Example sentences
- Cross reactions occur between retroviral glycoproteins and lymphocyte surface receptors.
- Participants with a history of adverse reactions to peas, beans, or peanuts were excluded because of possible cross reactions to soya protein.
- Prions exist in very low concentrations in the body, and the cross reaction with other proteins makes the identification of these prions difficult.
cross-react verb
- Example sentences
- The putative motor protein, cross-reacting with antimyosin antibodies, was shown to be associated with the surface of isolated Lemna chloroplasts.
- It was necessary to supplement blood with human fibrinogen because the antibody does not cross-react with canine fibrin.
- However, studies have shown that native DNA might actually be the cross-reacting antigen whereas modified nucleic acid polymers stimulate antibody response.
cross-reactive adjective
- Example sentences
- In contrast, more cross-reactive antibodies are believed to be more flexible and involve less specific contacts.
- Those results led the authors to believe that either patients were exposed simultaneously to the 3 molds, or that these antibodies were the result of cross-reactive antigens.

With a unique serial number to mark its position among 2000 select frames, each Collectors Edition will be one of a kind. Sport professionals demand nothing less than the best, and Oakley has answered their challenge for decades. World-class athletes have driven them to create innovation after innovation, including interchangeable lens designs with unbeatable optical clarity. FLAK JACKET takes that to the next level with the latest in performance technology. FLAK JACKET features Oakley HYDROPHOBIC, a permanent lens coating that prevents rain and sweat from building up on the lens. It also repels skin oils and other contaminates, so the lens is smudge resistant and easy to keep clean. It even eliminates static electricity, so dirt and dust particles won't cling. Choose the nose pads that give you the best fit, two sizes are included with every frame. Like the stem sleeves, they're made of UNOBTAINIUM to increase grip with perspiration. Oakley's Three-Point Fit optimizes comfort and holds the lenses in precise optical alignment for superior clarity. FLAK JACKET is made of lightweight O MATTER for all-day comfort. Pure PLUTONITE lens material filters out 100% of all UV, and FLAK JACKET meets ANSI Z87.1 standards for impact protection. The semi-rimless design means there's no frame rim to block downward view. Optical clarity exceeds all ANSI Z87.1 standards, and XYZ OPTICS extends razor-sharp vision all the way to the lens periphery.

RECORDS: Stanford 8-2, 6-1 Pac-12 North; Oregon 10-0, 7-0 Pac-12 North
KICKOFF: 5 p.m. at Autzen Stadium
SERIES HISTORY: Stanford leads 44-30-1; Oregon has won nine of the past 10.
STORYLINES: Nothing at stake except the Pac-12 North crown, a spot in the league title game and perhaps a berth in the Rose Bowl (for Stanford) or the BCS championship game (for Oregon). ... The Ducks have won the past two meetings by a combined 105-61, dominating the second half each time. ... How will Stanford's freshman quarterback, Kevin Hogan, who is making the first road start of his career, respond to the atmosphere? Autzen is the rowdiest stadium in the conference. . . . This will be the toughest test this season for Stanford's stout defense, which must contain a warp-speed Oregon attack that averages 54.8 points per game and contains an array of playmakers (quarterback Marcus Mariota, tailback Kenjon Barner, the versatile De'Anthony Thomas and receiver Josh Huff).
INJURY UPDATE: Stanford -- No injuries of consequence. Oregon -- NG Wade Keliikipi (undisclosed) and S Avery Patterson (knee) are out. DE Dion Jordan (shoulder), DT Taylor Hart (foot) and DT Isaac Remington (ankle) are probable.
MATCHUP TO WATCH: Stanford's offensive line against Oregon's front seven. The Cardinal will attempt to control the tempo by sending tailback Stepfan Taylor into the heart of a defense that allowed 236 rushing yards last week at Cal. If Taylor succeeds and Stanford avoids long-yardage situations, then Hogan should settle into a comfort zone. But the Ducks' quickness discombobulated Stanford last season. If that scenario repeats, it will be a long evening for the Cardinal.
STATS THAT MATTER: Stanford leads the nation in run defense (58.6 yards per game), sacks (4.2 per game) and tackles for loss (9.1 per game). ... Oregon is No. 1 in scoring (54.8 points) and third in rushing (325.1 yards). ... The Cardinal is 2-2 on the road, with wins over Cal (3-8) and Colorado (1-9). ... Oregon has lost one home game in the past four years. ... Mariota leads the nation in passing efficiency with a rating of 177. He has thrown 28 touchdown passes and only five interceptions.

Universal Family
I recently had the honor of attending a family wedding in France. The groom was French and brought up in the Catholic tradition. The bride was born in California and raised in the Jewish tradition.
The family and friends from both sides assembled in a small town in the south of France and the celebration began. There was lots of food, wine, and joyous gatherings. The groom's family exhibited the most amazing hospitality. Here is the interesting thing: It seemed perfectly natural that the French and the Americans were in the same place honoring the love of this beautiful young couple. Some spoke only English. Some spoke only French. Others had varying degrees of language learnings. It didn't seem to matter. Somehow, we all found a way to connect and get to know each other.

Buy, Hold, Sell: Taking Stock of Vacation Days
With just three and a half months until the end of the year, now's a good time to take stock of your remaining vacation days.
Perhaps you wish you had more time off, or perhaps you're sitting on too many days to use.
In an effort to remedy such dilemmas, some companies have vacation "buy-sell" programs that allow employees to do just that – buy days for the following year, or sell off days from the current year, usually through payroll deductions or credits. The enrollment process generally takes place in the fall.
The practice has caught on as more employers lump together vacation, personal and sick days as "paid time off," giving workers more freedom to manage their schedules. Fifty-one percent of companies currently offer PTO plans, up from 42% in 2009, according to the Society for Human Resource Management's annual benefits survey of 550 human resources professionals, released in June.
Many firms have found that vacation buy-sell programs are a good retention and recruitment tool, says Brittany Cullison, a human resource advisor at G&A Partners, an HR outsourcing company. "It offers employees flexibility."
At USAA, a San Antonio-based financial services provider for members of the military community, the share of employees purchasing vacation time has grown every year since the company introduced a buy-sell program in 2005. Forty-one percent of employees bought extra vacation time last October for use this year, up from 38% in 2008, according to Jeff Weiss, senior vice president of employee benefits.
Many employees buy time to tend to personal obligations, like a wedding, birth of a child or a family reunion, he says. The share of employees selling vacation days, meanwhile, has remained level at between 11% and 12%. The vast majority of workers buy vacation in a one-week chunk (the maximum is one week) while selling individual days, he says.
USG Corp., a Chicago-based manufacturer of building materials with 8,700 employees, introduced a buy-sell program for employees nearly two decades ago. The program became so popular that management had to scale back the maximum vacation purchase to one week, from two, says senior vice president of human resources Brian Cook.
Now, about half of employees buy one week of vacation every year – a cost that is then deducted in installments from the worker's paycheck. Selling vacation time is considerably less popular, with less than 10% of the workforce taking advantage of this option, he says.
"People are obviously wanting to spend more time at home with families," Cook says.
But chances are you aren't using up your vacation days. While the median full-time American worker receives just 2.6 weeks of vacation a year, according to a recent PayScale analysis of data from 465,000 employees, most Americans – 57% — don't use up their allotment, according to a recent Harris Interactive study, which polled 2,534 adults in 10 U.S. cities.
Readers, does your employer offer a program like this? Either way, would you be more likely to buy more vacation or sell off your unused days?

Apple Earnings Reaffirm Post-PC Era
"Apple Magic Wears Thin as Its Earnings Disappoint," reads the headline for the WSJ's story on Apple's earnings, but don't tell that to CITEWorld's Matt Rosoff, who sees yesterday's report as affirmation that the post-PC era is nigh, with Apple in line to gain the most. Mr. Rosoff is a former analyst with independent IT consulting firm Directions on Microsoft.
Apple was right when it predicted a big shift in the personal computing market. It was the first to capitalize on that shift, and consumers are still lapping up post-PC products from the company. That means that shift is going to be rippling through IT departments for many years, and Apple will continue to gain — not lose — relevance.
Despite "a flurry of competition" from competitors like Google and Amazon.com, iPad sales were up nearly 50% from last year, coming in at 22.9 million. Apple also sold 47.8 million iPhones, up from 37 million from the year-earlier period which, Mr. Rosoff notes, was one week longer than this year's quarter. "The device that kicked off the smartphone revolution nearly five years ago is still as vital to consumers — and enterprises — as it's ever been," he writes.
The numbers did not meet Wall Street's expectations and as of this morning, Apple shares are down 10%. But this doesn't matter to consumers or to IT, Mr. Rosoff says. "Apple also mentioned Barclays Bank buying more than 8,000 iPads for use in branches," he writes. "That's a rare acknowledgment of the iPad's impact in the enterprise. At CITEworld, we're hearing and seeing more of these stories every day." Indeed, CIO Journal reported in April that SAP has deployed 15,000 iPads to its workforce.
Factoring in the continued success of Apple's mobile devices, alongside a corresponding decline in PC demand, including Apple's own Mac which saw a drop of 20% last quarter, Mr. Rosoff can only draw one conclusion: "Steve Jobs was right. The post-PC era is here."

The talent search will be held at Club Vibe, on Sandflat Road off Highway 19 South, starting at 8pm. The Syndicate ATL has songs titled "Polo Down," "Bring it Bacc," and "All I See is Money." For those who want to take part, they are looking for some specific qualities.
"I'm looking for someone, couple people that got good stage presence, good stage presence, good lyrics, because right now to me, the rap game is flooded with a whole bunch of people that's saying anything on tracks," says J.A.C Danielz, a member of The Syndicate. "We want to see people that love their music, that believe in them self, first and foremost."
Club Vibe is expected to be full of local talent later on tonight. Now this talent is not just limited to rappers and singers, but if you have a talent of anything in entertainment, they want to see you out here tonight.
"If you can rap, if you can't rap, if you can sing, if you can dance, I mean anything works right now because it's entertainment. You want to be out there. You want to be known. You want somebody to see you, so if you want to try it, come on. We're right here," another group member, Southside Dunny, tells us.
For those who win tonight, they will get the chance to see what life in the entertainment industry is like.
Southside Dunny describes what winners will get to do. "Most likely we're going to take you through the regime of take you to a couple of shows, get a couple of recordings up under your belt, get you on the stage, maybe get you a couple of web pages. Web pages is definitely coming. That's the first the we have to do."
For The Syndicate, this is a way to give back for the opportunities they were given.
"Without having somebody to grab my hand and bring me along and say, 'Hey, this is how things go,' I probably would have never see it myself, so we just want to give the opportunity to somebody else," says Holiday.
The Syndicate will also be in concert next Friday, July 13 at Club Vibe.

2 slow untimed miles at the track this morning, sunny and 75 degrees.
Not my day to overachieve.
That being said, my plan calls for another visit to the track later today.
Bought a new pair of shoes: Saucony motion control shoes, similar to what I have been using for years. For now, I'm leaving the radical minimalist shoes to other people. In some ways I am a cautious, conservative fellow. My wife has said to me, "You don't like any food that your mother wasn't serving in 1965."
Dark Horse
I'm a dark horse, running on a dark race course.
Uh DH, that one's got me scratchin' my head... lol
Checked my resting heart rate this morning, that was 51. Checked my weight, still 169. And checked my blood pressure, 112 over 66. A buddy of mine used to say, "I feel so good it's scary." I'm not scared, but it does feel good to feel good.
6 miles today. I started out thinking I'd run 8 on a course that includes a decent hill in mile 5, but once I got underway, scrapped those plans in favor of a shorter run. I'd forgotten about yesterday's intervals, but my legs hadn't.
Anyway, I still ran a decent hill in the third mile and finished in 57:48, or a 9:38 pace.
If there's any part of this training cycle where I came up short, it would be running hills. I know they're important, I just couldn't get enough of 'em in.
Enjoy life, this ain't a rehearsal...
Funny how Mom's meals are more or less comfort foods.
Rich I can only wish my BP was that low. Don't know what it is these days, misplaced my BP machine. Last checkup (earlier this year) it wasn't technically high, but - I'm in the watch list...sigh.
Sounds like today was an off day for everybody. 6 miles today in 57-58 minutes (watch missed the first .2 miles - measued 54:29 and 5.83 miles. 83F today and definitely felt it - from mile 3 onward it was "can I stop now?" Not sure what are hills for you, but my fitbit registered 25 floors (250 Ft). Legs feel tired but otherwise ok.
2 more slow plodding miles at the track, untimed. Sunny and 84 degrees.
The new shoes didn't turn me into Prefontaine.
Maybe it takes a day or two for the magic to kick in.
By the way, while I was walking back to my car, the secret of success in running came to me. It's very simple:
1. Put in the miles.
2. Don't get hurt.
3. Race.
4. Repeat.
Dark Horse
I'm a dark horse, running on a dark race course.
Ray, NH's got its share of hills, but 250 feet is a good climb. I used to run a 10 mile loop that had 600 feet of elevation gain and drop, what a great workout that was. There's just no way I could take on a run like that without dropping something else during this last training cycle, so I left it out. It's not like I didn't run ANY hills, but most schedules have you running hill repeats and that's where I came up short.
DH, I've always felt that racing is what makes running fun. Like you said, put in the miles and don't get hurt. Only another runner can relate.
I love the atmosphere of a race and 5K's are totally different from a marathon. Marathoners are a serious bunch, with a big task ahead of them. 5K'ers on the other hand, are the YeeHaw crowd, just over 3 miles and they're done. Half marathoners are somewhere in between...
Enjoy life, this ain't a rehearsal...
Ran 6 today in 70's temperature. 19 for the week with 6 planned for Saturday for 25.
DH, your rules for successful running are so TRUE. I had to push myself out the door today and felt dead legged, but ended up feeling great as the run went on. Now all I need to do is the repeat step
How long have you been running in Vibram's Ray? I might try them down the road, or Merrill like you son. I don't miss the heavier shoes I used to run in.

The Creation of the World
Illustrated Manuscripts from the Braginsky Collection
René Braginsky has compiled his spectacular collection of Hebrew manuscripts over a period of more than three decades. It includes medieval documents, artfully prepared wedding contracts, richly illustrated scrolls, illuminated manuscripts, and rare prints.
The collection is characterized by a particular connection between text and art, as these Hebrew scriptures were often decorated with very elaborate illustrations. The focus is on illustrated manuscripts that originated in central and northern Europe of the 18th century showing high points of Jewish manuscript art. All the major Jewish calligraphers and illuminators of the period are represented with outstanding works in René Braginsky's collection.
The precious manuscripts of this private collection testify to the importance in Judaism of writing down sacred texts and biblical comments. During the persecutions throughout the centuries, Hebrew manuscripts and books were often damaged or even destroyed. This makes René Braginsky's collection with its outstanding examples of Jewish calligraphy all the more precious. As the largest private collection of objects from different areas of the Western and Eastern Diaspora, it also gives a comprehensive impression of the diversity of Jewish book history.
Torah scribe rabbi Reuven Yaacobov wrote five days a week on a Torah scroll.
In the exhibition, different calligraphers had demonstrating their skills in Arabic, Asian, and Latin script.
- Khat art and Arabic calligraphy with Murad Kahraman from 14–22 April and 1–4 May at 2–4 pm.
- Chinese calligraphy and Chinese painting with Prof. Ding Yuan from 29–31 May 2014.
- Arabic calligraphy with Lahsen Azougaye from 6–7 June 2014.
4 April – 3 August 2014

In the app store you can find the app "Braginsky Collection Berlin" (it requires iOS 6.0 or later). In English and German, it shows all objects of the Braginsky Collection in the exhibition "The Creation of the World" at the Jewish Museum Berlin.
Mishneh Torah (Law Code)
© Braginsky Collection, Zürich. Photo: Ardon Bar-Hama.
Mishneh Torah is the name of the extensive law codex of Moses Maimonides, the eminent Jewish scholar, who was born in Cordoba in 1135/38 and died in Cairo/ Fustat in 1204. It is considered today to be one of the central and fundamental books of Judaism. In the Mishneh Torah, Maimonides classified the existing laws according to their central themes. He did not cite – as was the convention at the time – the various strands of discussion of rabbinic authorities, but arranged the body of law in a new way which met with resistance in his contemporaries.
The notes and inscriptions in this manuscript indicate that this book passed through many hands and was read by major Ashkenazi rabbis. Moreover, the entries of the owners suggest that this Mishneh Torah traveled long distances to different parts of the world such as the Ottoman Empire, Kurdistan, England, and Jerusalem.
Ketubah (Wedding Contract)
© Braginsky Collection, Zürich. Photo: Ardon Bar-Hama.
Roman wedding contracts are known for their elegant Hebrew calligraphy and decorative design. Biblical episodes, allegorical scenes, and delicate micrographs (texts written in the tiniest space) are represented.
The bride and groom, Angelica and Menachem, both belonged to the Paliano family, one of the most respected and wealthiest Jewish families in Rome. On the outer ring, the Paliano family emblem with a palm branch, column, and three lilies can be found twice.
The inner oval contains the wedding contract in a uniform square script. A perfectly executed ornamental micrograph featuring the text of the books of Song of Songs, Ecclesiastes, and Ruth in full length can be found in the outer oval.
Megillat Esther (Esther Scroll)
© Braginsky Collection, Zürich. Photo: Ardon Bar-Hama.
This Esther Scroll links Western and Eastern traditions in a unique way. It served the private ritual use of the Sassoon family in Baghdad, some of whose members relocated to Bombay in 1832. The melding of Jewish scribal traditions and Indian artistic design in this megillah reflects the family's deep involvement in the cultural life of India. All marked with names, some of the figures wear Western clothes and some Indian.
The website www.braginskycollection.com provides comprehensive insights into the collection.
Events Accompanying the Exhibition
The museum offers a tour through the exhibition on Sundays at 2 pm (duration: 1 hour; admission: 11 euros, reduced rate 6 euros).
Educational Program
Our accompanying educational program can be found in the website area for kids, students, and teachers. This exhibition is accompanied by a storytelling workshop on biblical stories, a student workshop on the culture of writing, and a tour on marriage and contracts in religions and cultures. In addition, the nationwide competition "Lyrix" will be held at the Jewish Museum Berlin this year and is dedicated to a ketubah from the Braginsky Collection.
"bios [torah]" Installation
10 July 2014 - 11 January 2015
While the Sofer guarantees the sanctity of the Scripture, the installation highlights its industrial reproducibility.
An industrial robot writes a Torah. It does not use digital printing techniques to do this, but mimics the human act of writing. Using pen and ink, it writes at the speed of a human a total of 304,805 Hebrew letters on an 80-meter roll of paper.

Holocaust Denial on Trial, Trial Judgment: Electronic Edition, by Charles GrayTable of Contents
|< Introduction
|Irving's response >
Defendants' case
5.225The Defendants contend that in all three speeches Himmler is speaking in brutal terms of the murder of the Jews. Irving did not dissent from this. But for present purposes, the primary significance of this trilogy of speeches is that they shed light on the question whether Hitler knew of the killing. As to the first of these speeches the Defendants say that Himmler would not have spoken in such explicit terms if Hitler was unaware of the killings. Himmler would have realised that members of his audience would or might raise the matter with Hitler. In relation to the speech on 5 May 1944 the Defendants contend that the reference to a "soldierly order" must signify that Himmler had taken his order as to the solution to the Jewish problem from Hitler since he is only person in a position to give orders to Himmler. Similarly, in relation to the speech of 24 May, the Defendants assert that the "orders" must connote orders from Hitler. Read together, the Defendants maintain that the terminology of the speeches by Himmler in May 1944 demonstrate Hitler's knowledge of and responsibility for the murders of Jews including women and children.
5.227The Defendants direct particular criticism at Irving for the way in which he deals at p630 of Hitler's War (1977 edition) with the speech of 5 May. He there paraphrases what Himmler in such a way as to conceal the uncompromisingly brutal language used by Himmler. After the reference to Himmler's speech, Irving adds:The Defendants reply that it is pure surmise on Irving's part that the relevant passage was not shown to Hitler but it is presented by him to the reader as established fact. They point out that in the 1991 edition the reference to Himmler's speech of 5 May has been omitted altogether. The Defendants maintain that it is an important part of the narrative because it casts light on Hitler's role in the extermination of the Jews. The inescapable inference is that Irving was determined to avoid compromising Hitler.
"Never before, and never after, did Himmler hint at a Fuhrer order, but there is reason to doubt that he showed this passage to his Fuhrer".
5.228The reader is directed to a footnote in which Irving claims that the page containing the key sentence referring to a military order was "manifestly" retyped and inserted in the transcript at a later date. Irving suggested that this indicates that the version of the speech which was shown to Hitler was sanitised so as to exclude any reference to Himmler having been ordered by Hitler to carry out a bloody solution to the Jewish problem. It is Irving's argument that Himmler did this because he knew very well that Hitler had given him no such order.

|Irving's response >


text:
Many Christians ascribe to a theology that teaches that the Jews have a divine right to a piece of real estate and thus, uncritically support the Israeli government's policies that privilege any Jew without any historical tie to the land at the expense of the indigenous Palestinians, and this is the fuel of much of today's Anti-Semitism and distrust of and anger at America.
The heretical religious fundamentalism espoused by the likes of John Hagee and the tedious Left Behind series of pap combined with a limp and fawning Corporate Media, have colluded to deceive good Christians and has lead to 63 years of suffering and human rights abuses inflicted upon Palestinian Christians and Muslims which threatens Israel's and America's security!
Everywhere but in America the 43 years of Israeli Occupation of Palestine is viewed as a USA-Israeli collaboration and the empire's claims of supporting democracy, freedom, equality and justice while enabling misery and death is blatant hypocrisy and nothing more than blowing idiot wind!
Known and very popular cialis coupon which gives all the chance to receive a discount for a preparation which has to be available and exactly cialis coupons has been found in the distant room of this big house about which wood-grouses in the houses tell.
Dr. Ilan Pappe, an Israeli born historian said:
"On March 10,
1948, eleven men had a meeting in the Red House headed by Ben Gurion. The
eleven decided to expel one million Palestinians from historical Palestine. No
minutes were taken, but many memoirs were written about that fateful meeting. A
systematic ethnic cleansing of Palestine began and within seven months the
Zionists managed to expel one half of all the Palestinian people from their
villages and towns.
"The New York Times followed Israeli troops and reported the truth of the expulsion and separation of men and women, and of the many massacres. The world was well informed in 1948, but a year later not a trace was reported in the USA press or books. It was as if nothing ever happened.
"From March to October 1948 the USA State Department stated what was happening was a CRIME against humanity and ethnic cleansing. When ever one ethnic group expels another group they should be treated as War Criminals and the victims should be allowed to return. This is never mentioned in the USA about Palestine.
"Israel is so
successful in their ethnic cleansing because the world doesn't care! The ethnic
cleansing continues via the apartheid policies of the Israeli government and
because of the denial of the truth by the USA media.
"To claim Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East is bullshit!"[2]
Both Israel and
Hamas should be investigated for war crimes perpetuated during the 22 days of
assault on Gaza which began two days after Christmas day 2008, when the Israeli
military launched Operation Cast Lead, that killed 1,400 Palestinian and 13
Over 5,000 Palestinians were injured, 400,000 were left without running water, 4,000 homes were destroyed, rendering tens of thousands who are still homeless because of Israel's targeted attacks upon them, their schools, hospitals, streets, water wells, sewage system, farms, police stations and UN buildings.
The 22 days of Israel's attack on the people of Gaza was enabled by US-supplied weapons and we the people of the US who pay taxes provide over $3 billion annually to Israel although Israel has consistently misused U.S. weapons in violation of America's Arms Export Control and Foreign Assistance Acts.
Just before
Christmas 2009, President Obama, signed into law the biggest aid pledge of the
year. NOT for we the people or for struggling countries on the World Bank's
list, but for another $30 billion to Israel over the next decade.
During the 22 days of Israeli assault on Gaza, "Washington provided F-16 fighter planes, Apache helicopters, tactical missiles, and a wide array of munitions, including white phosphorus and DIME. The weapons required for the Israeli assault was decided upon in June 2008, and the transfer of 1,000 bunker-buster GPS-guided Small Diameter Guided Bomb Units 39 (GBU-39) were approved by Congress in September. The GBU 39 bombs were delivered to Israel in November (prior to any claims of Hamas cease fire violation!) for use in the initial air raids on Gaza. [3]
In a 71-page report released March 25, 2009, by Human Rights Watch, Israel's repeated firing of US-made white phosphorus shells over densely populated areas of Gaza was indiscriminate and is evidence of war crimes.
"Rain of Fire: Israel's Unlawful Use of White Phosphorus in Gaza," provides eye witness accounts of the devastating effects that white phosphorus munitions had on civilians and civilian property in Gaza.
"Human Rights Watch researchers found spent shells, canister liners, and dozens of burnt felt wedges containing white phosphorus on city streets, apartment roofs, residential courtyards, and at a United Nations school in Gaza immediately after hostilities ended in January.
"Militaries officially use white phosphorus to obscure their operations on the ground by creating thick smoke. It has also been used as an incendiary weapon, though such use constitutes a war crime.
"In Gaza, the Israeli military didn't just use white phosphorus in open areas as a screen for its troops," said Fred Abrahams, senior emergencies researcher at Human Rights Watch and co-author of the report. "It fired white phosphorus repeatedly over densely populated areas, even when its troops weren't in the area and safer smoke shells were available. As a result, civilians needlessly suffered and died." [Ibid]
During the 22 days of attack on Gaza, the UN Security Council, Amnesty International, International Red Cross, and global voices of protest rose up and demanded a ceasefire, but both houses of Congress overwhelmingly endorsed resolutions to support a continuation of Israel's so called "self defense."
As President Lincoln said, "Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side."
Porter Speakman, Jr., the Director and Executive Producer of "With God on Our Side" wrote:
"Good intentions can still have devastating effects. Some of the most tragic events in history have occurred from a bad interpretation of biblical texts and understanding of who God is. Any approach to the Middle East must be one that sees the needs of all people, not just one, because at the heart of who God is, is a God of love who commands us to love one another, whether that be our neighbor or someone we consider our enemy." [4]
Coming to America is his film, "With God on Our Side" which illuminates a biblical alternative for Christians who love and want to support the people of Israel and to promote peace and reconciliation for both Jews and Palestinians.With God on Our Side (2010)
Jewish Zionism began with the hope that all Jewish people would have a safe and peaceful dwelling place, but it has become an ideology of superiority, which has corrupted the faith of Judaism!
In 1948, American Mark Braverman was born into a devoutly religious and Zionist home, but the scales fell from his eyes when he experienced life in the West Bank. In FATAL EMBRACE he speaks as a Jewish prophet and also explains Walter Brueggemann's analysis of 'the land' as a metaphor:
"On the ninth of Av, when I stood on the outskirts of Jerusalem, a Jerusalem I now saw marching to its own destruction. I felt like the prophet Jeremiah and like Jesus eight centuries later, overcome with grief…[Jeremiah mourns] for the brokenness and imminent disaster awaiting the people. But the mourning is not about victimhood: it is about the self-inflicted nature of disaster to come." [5]
For Brueggemann, the land is a "core metaphor for the drama of God's people struggling to come to terms with the divine imperative to live justly…it is at once the promise and the problem…Possession of the land is totally conditional on obedience to God's plan as expressed in the covenant…The land…is a powerful force for well-being characterized by social coherence…security and freedom…the land is a vast metaphor about home, homelessness, loss, transgressions, forgiveness and redemption…God's promise of land to Israel…is at the heart of the covenant…Christians cannot speak seriously to Jews unless we acknowledge land to be the central agenda. [It is] the locus of meaning [and] the issue of identity…there is an entitlement that must be acknowledged…What would the prophets say?" [6
"From Moses to Jeremiah and Isaiah, the Prophets taught...that the Jewish claim on the land of Israel was totally contingent on the moral and spiritual life of the Jews who lived there, and that the land would, as the Torah tells us, 'vomit you out' if people did not live according to the highest moral vision of Torah. Over and over again, the Torah repeated its most frequently stated mitzvah [command]:
"When you enter your land, do not oppress the stranger; the other, the one who is an outsider of your society, the powerless one and then not only 'you shall love your neighbor as yourself' but also 'you shall love the other.'" [7]
Christians are called to be peacemakers, to forgive and love their enemies and to try to reconcile with all people. And the cross is also a metaphor!
2,000 years ago the cross had no religious symbolic meaning and was not a piece of jewelry. When Jesus said: "Pick up your cross and follow me" everyone back then understood he was issuing a POLITICAL statement, for the main roads into Jerusalem were lined with crucified agitators, rebels, dissidents and any who disturbed the status quo of the Roman Empire and Military Occupying Forces.
Christians could indeed change the world; if they would only pick up that cross!

Definition of flea in English:
1A small wingless jumping insect that feeds on the blood of mammals and birds. It sometimes transmits diseases through its bite, including plague and myxomatosis.
- Order Siphonaptera: several families and many species, including the human flea (Pulex irritans) and the cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis).
Example sentences
- Plague mostly affected rodents, but fleas could transmit the disease to people too.
- Plague is transmitted by fleas that live on rodents.
- It put poison in his blood that killed fleas after one bite.
1.1 short for flea beetle.
1.2A water flea (see daphnia).
a flea in one's ear
- A sharp reproof: she expected to be sent away with a flea in her earMore example sentences
- And if anybody asks when we will be having children they will go away with a flea in their ear.
- 'He was sent away with a flea in his ear,' said one Labour backbencher.
- A few weeks ago at another tournament in England, such assumptions saw one mouthy opponent dispatched with a flea in his ear.
Old English flēa, flēah, of Germanic origin; related to Dutch vlo and German Floh.
The first use of flea is recorded as early as the 8th century. Fleas are jumping insects, and since the late 19th century we have used fit as a flea to describe an active, healthy person. People have been sent away with a flea in their ear since the 15th century, and the idea dates back earlier in France. The telling-off or rejection is so 'sharp' that it is likened to the pain of a flea bite. Flea markets (early 20th century) and fleapits (mid 20th century), or scruffy cinemas, get their names from the idea that they are places which harbour fleas.

CORPUS CHRISTI – For the second straight year the Texas A&M - Corpus Christi men's and women's tennis teams have advanced to the finals of the Southland Conference Tournament. The No. 1 seed men's team (18-9, 6-0 SLC) secured a 4-0 win over No. 4 New Orleans (6-11, 2-4 SLC) in the semifinals and will face No. 3 seed Lamar in the championship match at 11 a.m. on Sunday.
The No. 2 seed Islanders women's team (21-5, 11-1 SLC) garnered a tight 4-2 win over No. 3 McNeese State (16-7, 10-2 SLC), and will face Northwestern State in a rematch of last season's championship match.
"Unbelievably good battles," Director of Tennis Steve Moore said. "New Orleans played an incredible match against some tough seniors that really fought hard today. It was windy, we had to really pay the price and really suffer with our legs. I'm pride our guys and how they rose up at the end. It was a match that could have slipped away from us. A lot of respect for New Orleans.
"Lamar is going to be super tough tomorrow. It's a team that we know how good they are. They are healthy again, but it's our home court, so we are going to come out and control the things we can control, and that means fighting as hard as we can humanly fight one point at a time in the present."
The men's team came out strong to win the doubles point on courts one and three to take a 1-0 lead. The tandem of Peter Nagy and Guillaume Rauseo cruised to an 8-2 victory over Timo Kranz and Gonzalo Garcia in No. 1 doubles before the sophomore pair of Ricardo Mayagoitia and Javier Pujol grinded out an 8-5 win over Chris Appelgren and Rui Silva in No. 3 doubles.
The Islanders kept fighting to win three straight in singles play to clinch the match. Freshman Paul Cook padded the Islanders lead to 2-0 after topping Appelgren in a straight-set match in No. 6 singles. Cook rolled past Appelgren 6-1 in the first before winning a tight 7-6 tiebreaker in the second. Cook fell behind 4-0 in the second set before fighting his way back to win a 9-7 tiebreaker and his sixth straight match. Nagy then followed with a 7-5, 6-4 victory over Kranz in No. 1 singles. The two-time Southland Conference Player of the Year opened with an early 5-2 lead before Kranz answered with three straight games to knot the set at 5-5. Nagy then secured the win after winning two straight games. In the second set, the junior built an early 4-2 lead before earning the Islanders their third point of the day with a 6-4 second-set win. Nagy has won seven straight matches for an overall record of 19-3 at the No. 1 slot.
With the Islanders in front 3-0, Rauseo squeezed out a third-set tiebreaker at No. 5 singles to clinch the match for the Islanders. The sophomore breezed past Romain Lefevre, 6-0, in the first set before dropping a 7-6 (3) second set. In the third, Rauseo fell behind 5-4, before battling his way back to force a tiebreaker. In the tiebreaker, Rauseo jumped out early and maintained his lead to win 7-4 and clinch the match for the Islanders.
In the other three singles matches, Mayagoitia was leading 5-4 in the third set over Garcia in No. 2 singles, while Pujol was also in a third set, trailing Silva, 2-1, in No. 3 singles. In the final singles match, Westmoreland was going neck-and-neck with Gregor in the No. 4 slot in a third set. After a 28-point tiebreaker in the first set that led Gregor to a first-set win, Westmoreland garnered the second set, 6-4. In the third, Westmoreland was ahead 2-1 when the match was clinched.
The men's team returns to the finals for the second straight year for a chance to make their fifth trip to the NCAA Team Championships in the last seven years. The Islanders will face the Cardinals, who topped Nicholls 4-1 in the semifinal round.
On the women's side, the Islanders will also return to the finals after fighting out a 4-2 win over McNeese State. After falling behind 2-0, the Islanders clinched their next three singles matches to push ahead 3-2. In the final two singles matches the Islanders were forced to a third set after winning the first set on both courts. With Maider Martin ahead 5-4 in the third set in No. 3 singles, freshman Judit Vives clinched the match for the Islanders in the No. 2 slot after her opponent Sara Castellano was issued with a code violation in the third set.
"I can't begin to tell you how proud I am of our girls," Moore said. "I feel bad at how it ended, McNeese has had an amazing season. We beat them in a position that people would have given us the least chance at. They are great at one and two. They have superstars at one and two, and to win out there fighting and grinding like we did. Judit and Maider they never quit fighting. For our seniors, I think that everyone fought a little extra for those four special seniors, and you can't ask a team to fight harder than how we fought today. We beat a really, really good team and we beat them the hard way.
"We will see tomorrow, it's a rematch of last year's finals. Patric DuBois is good as a coach as there is in women's tennis in the country. Last year I thought we played a little tight in the finals and this year we are wiser, ready to fight one point at a time."
The women's team lost the doubles point after dropping two out of the three matches. The sophomore duo of Martin and Celia Rodriguez took care of business in No. 2 doubles with an 8-0 sweeping victory over Anastasia Surkova and Vivien Borbely. However, the Cowgirls answered back with consecutive wins on courts one and three to clinch the doubles point. Julia Kral and Annabelle Peacock defeated the Islanders duo of Stefania Nicolae and Kerry Galhos, 8-1, in the No. 3 slot, before Klaudia Gawlik and Castellano topped the senior-freshman pair of Sandra Burges and Vives, 8-1, in No. 1 doubles.
McNeese State built a 2-0 lead after Gawlik sealed a 6-3, 6-0 victory over Nicolae in No. 1 singles. The Islanders didn't give up though as they fought their way back with three straight-set singles wins. Galhos picked up a 6-4, 6-3 victory over Peacock in No. 6 singles before Rodriguez posted her 14th consecutive singles win in the No. 4 spot. The sophomore powered past Surkova, 6-2, 6-2, to improve to 21-3 and a perfect 17-0 in No. 4 singles. Burges then kept the rally going with a straight-set win over Borbely in No. 5 singles to push the Islanders in front 3-2. The senior won her sixth straight match to improve to 20-5 and 14-2 in the No. 5 spot.
The match then came down to the final two singles matches on courts two and three. Vives edged Castellano, 7-6 (1) in the first set before falling 6-1 in the second set. In the third, the Southland Conference First Team honoree broke serve to go ahead, 5-4, before Castellano slammed the ball against the back of the court for her second code violation, which resulted in a game penalty, and awarded Vives her sixth point of the set and the match. The Barcelona, Spain native has now won 13 straight matches for an impressive 19-1 singles record in her first year.
In the final singles match, Martin propelled to a 6-1 first-set win over Kral in No. 3 singles, before falling 6-4 in the second set. In the third, Martin pushed ahead 5-4 when the match was clinched.
The Islanders will take on the defending Southland Conference Tournament Champions Northwestern State in the finals at 2 p.m. on Sunday. The Islanders and Lady Demons shared the regular-season title after they both tallied an 11-1 record.

SARASOTA - A man who reportedly thought he was about to meet a mother who offered to let him have sex with her child was sentenced to 20 years in prison and 10 years probation.
Stephen Mizner, 43, of Sarasota, was found guilty of computer pornography, soliciting a parent to consent to sex with a minor, traveling to meet a minor and attempted sexual battery.
Mizner was also designated as a sexual predator.
Sheriff's detectives reported that Mizner thought he was responding to an Internet ad by a woman with a child offering "discreet family fun." The Florida Department of Law Enforcement reportedly posted the ad.
Through the Internet and by phone, Mizner said he wanted to have sex with the mother and daughter. He agreed to meet the mother in a parking lot in the 5400 block of Clark Road and bring Skittles candy and condoms.
The woman, who was an undercover detective, reportedly said she would take him to her home to be with the girl.
Sheriff's detectives arrested Mizner when he arrived.

Hey Islander Fans,
As you all know Wednesday's game against UTA was the last game Myeisha Myles and Zoe Vega-Vega played on Stripes Court. Our beloved seniors will be greatly missed on the court in the upcoming seasons. Below is an interview between Mye, Zoe, and I recapping on their experiences here as an Islander basketball player. There is also a video of Mye and Zoe, who are the closest on the team, together just reminiscing about their time together at the Island University. Thank you all for the support that you have given us this past season, it's been a bumpy ride, and you have been there the whole step of the way!
To The Seniors: It's disappointing to see you graduating and leaving us to venture out in the world. I've known Mye for about four years and Zoe for three and to see you two mature and become leaders just amazes me! I still have pictures of me and Mye from my recruiting visit my senior year in high school lol we went through a GREAT season, a BAD season, and a ROUGH season together but it just goes along with the territory. Zoe was my HOMIE until Mye came into the picture lol ;) but she's always made me laugh and has been just a cool person to be around. She's super goofy and outgoing too so that will definitely be missed next year. Congratulations to both of you for making through college alive and well (even with a few broken knees and bunions lol). I wish you all the best of luck in the future and much success on whatever it is that you want to do in life! From the team: We Love You!

The exact cause of sarcoidosis is unknown. Granulomas appear to be the result of an immune system response to an unidentified trigger. Infections agents as well as environmental exposures are thought to be possible precipitants for this immune response; however, no clear triggers or causes have been identified. Genetic mutations in white blood cell proteins (called human leukocyte antigens, or HLA) as well as chemicals that control inflammation (called cytokines) have also been linked to sarcoidosis.
