Was recommended by health shop to take this and so glad to find this at iherb. I have not tried other brand probiotics so can't compare... Garden of Life products is always my 1st choice as is organic and from whole food source and raw.
Crohn's supplement
Posted by 5324077134647419475 on Aug 30, 2013
I bought this for my Crohn's disease, which is mainly in my large intestine. It was just okay, and at least it didn't make me sick as many others do. I was buying it because I had been on Saccharomyces boulardii and 24 hour yogurt with yogourmet starter and a bit of lactobacillus gg mixed into the starter. I wanted to get the dairy out and this seemed like a good way, but I have switched back to my old regime and noticed its better. Still.... I think for somebody that isn't taking any probiotics at all, this would be beneficial.
Posted by Reviewer1500889 on Jan 26, 2009
Excellent probiotic formula, one of the best on the market for its essential and clean ingredients made with high standards.

On Tap Today: Thursday see-thaw ride
No, we're not up in the attic trying to find our checkered blankets to slam down on Bradford Beach Thursday. But we do like January Thaws, and ours is set to continue today.
That forecast gives us "happy feet," just in time to hook up with The Happy Dutchmen playing at The Domes "Music Under Glass" tonight. Our Lederhosen might be a bit tight after all the holiday feasting, but we'll polka off the poundage when the band gears up its German sounds. It's also Poinsettia Giveaway Night, so bring some paper towels to wrap your freebie flora in. »Read Full Blog Post

'Sign Painters' trailer by Faythe Levine and Sam Macon released
There was a time when signs in storefronts and on murals, banners and billboards were all lettered by hand by artists. Local artist and gallery owner Faythe Levine and filmmaker Sam Macon have created a documentary about the crafts people who never gave up the lettering trade and the artists who've picked up the traditional practice.
Today, the trailer and premiere date were released. The film will screen at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, DC, on March 30. No information is available yet about a Milwaukee screening, but Levine hopes it will be soon after the Smithsonian showings. Here's the trailer. »Read Full Blog Post
The Case of the Mysterious Author Who Took Her Children to Bookstores all over the Country
Jenny Milchman, you are either the coolest mother this side of the Pecos, or a completely crazy woman, possibly both.
Milchman, who recently published the suspense novel "Cover of Snow" (Ballantine), is driving around the country visiting independent bookstores to promote her novel -- with her husband AND their two children. "During the tour, we are 'car-schooling' our first- and third-grade children. Part of their education will be seeing the landscape change as the bookstores do," Milchman, who lives in New Jersey, wrote in an article for the bookseller trade e-newsletter Shelf Awareness. »Read Full Blog Post

Mayor Barrett could use better counsel on culture
Over the weekend, Jim Stingl published a column in the paper about a "sudden burst of color" at the former Palms nightclub. In it, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett extolled the idea of quick paintings on boarded up buildings, calling it "window dressing."
Barrett, who also talked about art in his State of the City address, giving a prominent shoutout to the energies of Art Milwaukee, a networking and marketing organization, and who recently spent the better part of a day talking up artists to celebrate the city's ArtPlace designation, seems to have gotten religion about the power of art to transform blighted areas and create economic development. »Read Full Blog Post(10)
Wauwatosa considers North Ave. chain restaurant limits
The Wauwatosa Common Council is considering an ordinance that would ban chain restaurants from the east end of North Ave.

See Soundgarden rocking Segways in Dave Grohl-directed music video
Soundgarden is about as serious as rock bands get these days, so its fun to see the Chris Cornell-fronted group loosen up a little bit in the music video for its latest single "By Crooked Steps."
The Dave Grohl-directed video opens with the guys finishing up a poker game and slipping on Crooked Steps biker jackets as they head out into the night. But just when you expect to see them revving their Harleys, a medium shot reveals the guys doing their best tough guy expressions while cruising along on some Segways. »Read Full Blog Post
Yo La Tengo swings from calm to full-on rocking
Yo La Tengo's show at Turner Hall on Saturday showed that in music, there are different types of Zen.
The Hoboken, N.J.-based indie rock darling began a nine-song opening acoustic set with a meditative variation of "Ohm," the first track off "Fade," its lovely and relaxed 13th full-length studio album released in January. Georgia Hubley gently tapped the drums with brushes, her husband Ira Kaplan glided the song toward a subdued Middle Eastern-influenced guitar jam, and the couple along with primary bassist James McNew sang sweetly, quietly, together. »Read Full Article

Milwaukee Rep's 'Clybourne Park' an electrifying production
Because "Clybourne Park" is so good and because it explores issues that aren't going away, it's easy to agree with Mark Clements' prediction - made in his director's notes for the new Milwaukee Repertory Theater production - that Bruce Norris' play is built to last.
It's much harder to imagine watching the inevitable revival, 10 or 20 years from now, without hearkening back to the electrifying performance I saw Friday night, in which Clements' all-star cast gave "Clybourne" the treatment it deserves. »Read Full Article(1)

Cotto did not look great, but....
I'm seeing people act like it wasn't a one sided fight. I saaw people in the live thread give Mayorga the first round? Is that a joke? Mayorga won MAX 3 rounds, 2 on my card.
Still, it was an underwhelming performance. I used to think Cotto had a shot at Martinez styles wise, but I was dead wrong. Martinez puts a serious beating on Cotto at this point.

Cotto clearly won, but Mayorga landed a lot more punches than he should have, and also, Cotto showed he has problems with pressure and fighting backwards once again.

You can't teach old dog new tricks. As much as i was hoping Steward would make a huge difference with Cotto, It seems he's still making a lot of the same mistakes he used to. Mayorga was hitting him way too often, and he was just fighting in bursts once or twice a round with no real pop left in his punches at this stage of career.
I still haven't seen anything that would suggest that he could win a rematch against Marg, Pac or a fight against Martinez.

Behind Enemy Lines is a 2001 thriller war film directed by John Moore and starring Gene Hackman and Owen Wilson. Its fictional plot is centered on the story of uncovering a massacre in the Bosnian War of 1992-1995 by an American naval aviator. The movie bears some resemblance to the experiences of former USAF Captain Scott O'Grady, who was shot down on June 2, 1995, over Bosnia. He managed to survive for six days before being rescued. He reportedly filed suit against the producers of this film for defamation of character and making a film about his ordeal without his permission. The characters and events the film portrays are, however, almost entirely fictional. O'Grady never entered populated areas, interacted with civilians, or was pursued by Serb forces. In this respect, the film more closely resembles the experiences of Royal Navy pilot, Lt Nick Richardson, shot down over Gorazde on 16th April 1994, whose story is told in the book No Escape Zone.

I just came across this:
Cruel Italian buffalo farms that'll put you off mozzarella for life* | Daily Mail Online
Appalling, isn't it?
Next time I want some mozarella, I'll look around for a locally-made product. I don't think farmers would be allowed to get away with that in England: animal husbandry standards are quite high here, as I think they are for our neighbours in Ireland. This just won't do.
It's not even so much the "health" questions here - the possible health questions for consumers eating the product when the animals are kept in insanitary conditions and, if the old lady in Italy who was interviewed is to be believed, there's a "toxic dump" nearby, too. It's the treatment of the animals that distresses - indeed, annoys - me.
And this is what POD status in the EU amounts to? Who cares where it comes and how "authentic" it is supposed to be in face of that suffering.
I want to say a couple more things. Maybe others won't agree with me, but here goes:
1. I think we have to be prepared to pay more for food. So in this case if I were to get mozarella from the happy free-range buffalo at Laverstock Park in England I'd probably have to pay rather more. So be it. And I think this goes in general. I fully appreciate that "do the best you can with the money you've got" is a good approach and people shouldn't be put off buying less than ideal raw ingredients if that's all their budgets allows and lapse into packaged food-like-substances. But there are limits to that. I think "be prepared to spend more on food and less on other things" might be a good motto, too. I think we're in the state we're in as a culture partly because food producers/supermarkets have concentrated on driving down prices before anything else.
2. I don't think we can separate human health, care for farm animals and care for the land. I think it's all tied together. I haven't got space or time to try to prove that, and someone like Joel Salatin would do it so much better than me that it's not worth my trying. But is it worth saying again?
I think that what goes round comes round. So take the example of farmers who feed antibiotics to their cows not for any medical reason but merely to promote fattening - or arsenic to chickens (for the same reason), which incredibly happens in some parts of the world. Maybe that puts a little more money in a farmer's pocket, but he and his family have to eat the food with the harmful residues in. And if he's savvy enough to avoid his own food, like enough it's getting in his drinking water. What goes round comes round. It's just short-sighted. And when you've degraded your land far enough, what do you do then?
I think that people don't realise this because they have a wrong conception of the nature of the world. They see everything as a zero-sum game - and it's not. They would probably see their cynicism as intelligent, as realistic - and it's not.

And no less than twice in eight days. Don't, however, expect a raving tirade in favor of cycling from the future president of the metropolis.[read more]

6 Foundations for Building Community Resilience
It's all too easy to look at the news these days and find an instant reminder of how vulnerable, and in some cases broken, our communities are — whether the risks they face are due to terrorism, natural disasters, economic struggles, dilapidated infrastructure, or a dozen other disruptive forces. I could quickly provide some examples, torn from this week's headlines, but if you're reading this a month, a year, or decade from now, it's likely the task will be just as easy.[read more]

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Let's take a quick look at how the Chicago Bulls pulled out win over the Sacramento Kings on Thursday night at Power Balance Pavilion.
How it happened: Carlos Boozer played his best game of the young season scoring 16 points and grabbing 15 rebounds. Derrick Rose added 19 and Rip Hamilton chipped in with 16. The Bulls made enough defensive plays to win the game at the end, although Tom Thibodeau still won't be particularly happy with the way his team played.
What it means: Yes, the Bulls won, but Thibodeau is going to find plenty of reasons to be upset with his team. They still aren't playing as consistently as they did last year. Granted, a lot of that probably has to do with rust from the lockout, but Thibodeau and his players have set a higher standard for themselves. The Bulls started off this game running up and down the floor and attacking the rim like they did last season. But, there were too many stretches in which the Bulls played sloppy.
Stat of the night: The Bulls had 25 assists on the night. Joakim Noah (who had nine points) was the only Bulls' starter not in double figures.
What's next: The Bulls get right back to work Friday night when they face off against former coach Vinny Del Negro and the Los Angeles Clippers.

Smith looking vulnerable as Boucher era comes to end
By Paul Newman for the Daily Mail
It has been the cricket we have been waiting for all through this sodden summer but the severe eye injury that has led to the retirement of Mark Boucher has already taken some of the gloss off the build-up to England's Test showdown against South Africa.
Not only that but it is the beginning of the end of an era for South Africa as Boucher, along with Graeme Smith and Jacques Kallis, have formed a successful and powerful triumverate who have had a huge influence over their team for more than a decade.
Smith was clearly shaken at Taunton on Tuesday when he read out his great friend Boucher's retirement statement, which talked of him facing 'an uncertain recovery'. He will visit a specialist in Cape Town to determine if he has permanent blindness in his left eye.
Shaken up: Graeme Smith reads out a statement on behalf of Mark Boucher announcing the wicketkeeper's retirement in Taunton
It is a massive blow for a South Africa captain who offered to resign ahead of this series but was persuaded not to by coach Gary Kirsten, who still thinks of Smith as the best man to lead his side.
Smith has seen off two England captains in Nasser Hussain and Michael Vaughan on South Africa's last two tours of England but, without trusty lieutenant Boucher by his side, it is the tourists' skipper who looks much more vulnerable this time.
The immediate consequence is that Boucher bows out with 999 international catches and stumpings to his name — plus one wicket — and South Africa have lost one of their most significant players ahead of a three-Test series that will see the best two teams in the world do battle for the No 1 Test ranking.
And it appears they are going to take a big gamble by asking AB de Villiers to take over Boucher's duties in the first Test at The Kia Oval next week rather than hand the gloves to his deputy Thami Tsolekile, who played a Test against England in 2004 when the Proteas rather unwisely attempted to oust Boucher.
Horror injury: Mark Boucher, in a wheelchair and with an eye patch, at Cape Town airport on Wednesday
De Villiers is one of the world's best batsmen and is crucial to South Africa's hopes of success here. He is a more-than-adequate keeper but it is asking a lot for him to assume an all-round role and could take away some effectiveness with the bat.
What it does do, however, is give South Africa a huge amount of depth, with JP Duminy expected to come in at No 7 in Boucher's place, while Kallis's underestimated ability with the ball gives them a balanced five-man attack.
The series remains, then, a prospect to savour with the only shame, as this column has said before, being that we have only three Tests to look forward to rather than the four or five of which this series should consist of.
Whoever comes out on top — it really could go either way — there will be as many questions as answers, and the No 1 side in the world will be left feeling that they have not quite proved themselves the undisputed champions. Never mind. Three is better than nothing. All we need now is for the sun to shine.

Ravi deserves a shot at six
The England selectors should have another quick and easy meeting this week as they finalise their team for the first Test.
Nine players pick themselves while a 10th, Tim Bresnan, will almost certainly be preferred to Steven Finn and Graham Onions as long as the elbow injury that kept him out of the final one-day international has healed.
The only big decision England must make is over who bats at No 6 after Jonny Bairstow's struggles against the short ball against West Indies.
Ravi Bopara had been earmarked for a spot in that series before he succumbed to injury, and he has looked a more mature player on his return for the one-day contests against Australia.
Bopara, whose up-and-down Test career has left him in danger of not fulfilling his potential, should get the nod now and be given an extended run in the Test team. His time has surely come.
Impressive form: Ravi Bopara his 182 runs - seven behind top scorer Ian Bell - across the one-day series
Reserving judgement
It remains difficult to warm to Old Trafford, however much is spent on the long-overdue rebuilding programme that is taking place there.
The old ground was more like a building site than an appropriate venue for an international match this week while the two new stands that were opened for Tuesday's one-day international are little more than concrete slabs that are far from easy on the eye. Lord's or Trent Bridge this ain't.
Lancashire are adamant that Old Trafford is going to be world class when it is finally finished but I, for one, am not holding my breath.
Under construction: Old Trafford
Bumble's final word
Mickey Arthur has said that Australia have been bullied in their one-day series against England and need 'a bit of mongrel', which is a complete role reversal of what it was like for years.
When Australia had iconic players such as Steve Waugh, Glenn McGrath, Shane Warne and the rest they were able to play with complete arrogance and confidence but if the current side are going to do that they have to be at least as good as their opponents.
And Australia, on the evidence of this series, are clearly not anywhere near as good as England. They have been absolutely dominated here by England and that can only augur well for next year.

With the highly-anticipated release of two King Hu masterpieces on home video by the Masters of Cinema organization, as well as the critical success of Hou Hsiao-hsien's The Assassin last year, it seems like the wuxia film is making some inroads into the Western critical consciousness. So I thought I'd put together a guide to some of the essential films of the genre. - 30 Essential Wuxia Films
"The food is authentic in spirit."
"It was Asian enough for my immigrant parents and American enough for my sister and me." In the PBS feature documentary, Off The Menu, filmmaker Grace Lee traverses the US into the kitchens, factories, temples and farm of Asian Pacific America that explores how our relationship to food reflects our evolving communities.

Television viewers in China were shocked last Friday when state broadcaster CCTV aired V for Vendetta unedited in prime time. Previously, Chinese search engines would not even return results for the anti-totalitarian 2006 film; CCTV-6 did at least harmonize the title by translating it as "V Special Forces", rather than the more common translation given in pirated DVD editions, "V the Revenge Killing Squad".

Michelangelo Antonioni's "Chung Kuo"
[Michelangelo Antonioni's Chung Kuo] as a documentary film was one which was draped with fascination for both filmmakers as well as an audience, rather than championing anti-whatever sentiments from either side of the world. Not having seen many movies, either features, shorts or documentaries made during the Cultural Revolution era or about that era in question (propaganda included), I think this Antonioni film has more than made its mark as a definitive documentary that anyone curious about the life of the time, would find it a gem to sit through.
Josef von Sternberg's "The Shanghai Gesture"
The other places are like kindergartens compared with this. It smells so incredibly evil! I didn't think such a place existed except in my own imagination. It has a ghastly familiarity like a half-remembered dream. *Anything* could happen here... any moment... Pauline Kael called it "hilariously, awesomely terrible". Others consider it "a forgotten gem of a film that set the gold standard for noir films to come". It was Josef von Sternberg's last major film - The Shanghai Gesture (1941).

Eye-D partner BlinkSpot's biometric solution for identifying, monitoring and reporting students as they board and exit school buses is now available nationwide.
Developed in conjunction with 3M Cogent's biometric identification systems, BlinkSpot's iris scanning technology has an over 99% accuracy rate and is operated by Eye-D through a private, secure and dedicated Verizon data portal, according to the company.
"Every school year there are too many reports of students getting on the wrong bus, getting off at the wrong locations or, worse yet, not getting on or off the bus at all," said Michael Hagan, vice president of BlinkSpot. "We recognized that our technology could have a positive impact and deliver a fast, simple and safe solution for parents, administrators and school bus operators."
When children board or exit the bus, the BlinkSpot iris scanning technology recognizes the child and sends real-time reports to the school along with an individual e-mail to each parent verifying the location of their child and the time.
BlinkSpot said that it also provides nonintrusive sponsorship opportunities to augment technology acquisition and school budgets.

Diablo 2
Where can I find a Diablo 2 trainer?
rushdown posted on Jul 19, 2010 1:42:59 PM - Report post
I have version 1.13 of Diablo 2. I googled it and so far, all I've found are things called editors. Are they the same thing as trainers?
I downloaded an editor and I don't know how to use it. The problem is, I don't know where the character files (*.d2s files) are saved so I cannot open my character and edit his stats.

Thanks, but I found the it.
I also got the editor to work! It's pretty cool.
AdmiralP posted on Sep 04, 2010 3:17:11 PM - Report post
So I was thinking of reinstalling this and giving it a go again. However, when I played this eight or nine years ago the editor seemed to the game near the end. I was so miffed that I did not even bother starting over. Perhaps it was just a fluke, but it may be worth your while to look into conflicts with the editor. Forums were not nearly as prevalent when I played Diablo II initially, so I had the files with no feedback on them whatsoever... this would seem downright foolish these days. Still have the files though... unless they have been updated that is.
That is the smartest thing I have ever heard anyone say about anything.

Heading into the 2011 NFL Draft, many college players are already thinking about which teams might take them and which teams they would like to play for.
But for some, the road is tougher. They have to worry about impressing scouts at the NFL Draft Combine due to injuries, character issues, or just the emergence of other players who have performed well lately, either at private workouts (Cam Newton) or the Senior Bowl.
Here are the top ten players who are ready to breakout at the 2011 NFL Combine.

Sergio Martinez Signs: Says Chavez-Lee is 50-50 Bout
By Rick Reeno
BoxingScene.com reached out to boxing adviser/promoter Sampson Lewkowicz, and spoke directly to middleweight king Sergio Martinez (49-2-2, 28KOs), who confirmed that he officially signed, at 7PM PST, an agreement to face the winner of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. vs. Andy Lee - on the tentative date of September 15th. Lewkowicz, along with his wife, held a meeting with Martinez at the Bel Air Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.
As BoxingScene first reported on Tuesday, a deal was reached for Chavez Jr. (45-0-1, 31KOs) to defend his WBC middleweight title against Lee (28-1, 20KOs) in an HBO televised fight on June 16th at the Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas.
The World Boxing Council positioned Martinez as the mandatory challenger at last December's convention in Las Vegas. The sanctioning body expects all of the required parties to sign this agreement.
"I have officially signed the agreement. [WBC President] Jose Sulaiman expects everyone involved to sign this agreement - including Chavez, Lee, [Top Rank CEO Bob] Arum and [Martinez/Lee promoter] Lou DiBella. If they don't sign the document [prior to June 16th], Jose Sulaiman has made a promise that the WBC title will not be on the line on June 16, because they will take the title away," Martinez said to BoxingScene.com.

Several food related crises, such as BSE and toxic chemical contamination from various sources, have caused Europeans to be wary about the food they consume. Questions arise about the safety of the food they eat, putting pressure on authorities to provide solutions. One such contentious question is, How are Europeans dealing with the GMO food issue? Unresolved and in the spotlight for ten years, the European Commission has launched a project to investigate this matter.
The ConsumerChoice proposal involves 11 Member States, and includes natural and social scientists, retailers and consumer groups, formed to discover the facts about Europeans and genetically modified food. Going beyond the traditional opinion polls, the project investigates actual reactions when citizens are provided a choice between GMOs and traditional food types. Specifically, this is to explore the discrepancy between what consumers actually do and what such polls suggest they do.
ConsumerChoice began by assessing what GM food types are available in the various countries and how readily they are purchased in comparison to their non-GM type equivalents. These observations are supplemented with the findings of targetgroup specific opinion polls and focus-group studies.
To further enhance these findings, the project undertakes a continued observation on both the national political climate surrounding GM products, as well as the nature of media exposure that might influence European trends.
Currently, several studies suggest that while some consumers oppose GMOs, many, perhaps most, remain indifferent. Furthermore, price has a direct relevancy to purchasing habits. A case in point is a series of studies carried out in various European cities in 2004. Fake GM foods were sold at cheaper prices alongside non-GM foods at regular prices. Consumers willingly purchased more GM foods than they did the non-GM counterparts.
An additional finding indicates that consumer positions are also influenced by such factors as ethical, existential and epistemological issues. On average, the European public is more sceptical when it comes to GM food than they are with respect to biotechnology for medicine.
Undoubtedly, how consumers view genetic engineering will influence the existing and future development of health-promoting food using gene technology. The results for labelled GM foods that emerge from the ConsumerChoice study will help to shape the actions of Europes food industry in a multitude of ways.
In order to comply with EU regulations, GM food products containing more than 0.9% GM content in any one component must be labelled. Experts claim that Europe will see a surge in the number and in the variety of GMOs that will become available. With a budget of 707 752, ConsumerChoice offers researchers and industry evidence of actual consumer behaviour as opposed to assumptions based on opinion polls asking about attitudes and intentions. If Europeans accept GM foods, the majority of food SMEs will be able to find solid footing in the market and will increasingly cooperate with larger companies in a publicly agreed common policy of handling GMO issues with transparency.
However, the situation is not a simple matter. Variance in regional and national consumer behaviour complicates matters. Retailers often respond with a range of reactions. If GM foods are widely acceptable, the food industry will doubtless act accordingly. However, if they are not, Europe is still able to go forward successfully as an area largely devoid of agricultural biotechnology and its products.
The point is to be informed. The European Commission has worked diligently to boost resources for biosafety research. Over a 15-year period, the EU spent some 70 million on 80 projects involving more than 400 laboratories across the continent. Making well informed decisions is imperative, for both the public and authorities alike.

An attorney said Friday that seven young men he represents have finalized deals with Penn State over claims of abuse by the school's former assistant football coach, Jerry Sandusky.
Lawyer Matt Casey said his clients include Sandusky's son, Matt Sandusky, as well as the young man known as "Victim 2" in court records and three other victims who testified last summer against Jerry Sandusky at his criminal trial. Victim 2 was the boy whom then-graduate assistant Mike McQueary said he saw being attacked by Jerry Sandusky in a campus shower in 2001.
Casey didn't disclose the settlement terms. The university has not announced the deals.
Gay-marriage licenses ordered
The county clerk in Santa Fe, N.M., began issuing marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples Friday, a court-ordered move that came just two days after a county clerk on the other end of the state decided on his own to recognize same-sex marriage.
The first couple to get a license was Santa Fe County Commissioner Liz Stefanics and Linda Siegle, a lobbyist for Equality New Mexico, a gay-rights group. Stefanics is a former Democratic state senator.
The couple walked into County Clerk Geraldine Salazar's office shortly after 1:30 p.m., and asked if they were still denying licenses to same-sex couples.
"Not today," Salazar said.
In a ruling late Thursday, District Judge Sarah Singleton ordered Salazar to grant the marriage licenses or appear in court Sept. 26 to tell her why that shouldn't happen.
By the end of the day, 49 licenses had been issued.
Gun discharges in kindergarten
No charges have been filed against a Tennessee kindergartner or his mother after a gun discharged inside the child's backpack in a school cafeteria, but the shooting has led to metal-detecting wands being provided to the district's elementary schools, officials said Friday.
Memphis police said the child, 5, and his mother were released from custody late Thursday, hours after the gun went off as students were waiting for the opening bell in the Westside Elementary School cafeteria. No one was hurt, and security officers quickly took control of the backpack. .
Investigators determined the child obtained the gun from a closet at home and placed it in the backpack, police spokeswoman Karen Rudolph said Friday. Rudolph said later Friday that the district attorney's office is still investigating the matter.
Hafiz Khan, 78, a Muslim cleric from Miami, was sentenced Friday to 25 years in prison after being convicted on terrorism support charges for sending tens of thousands of dollars overseas to finance the Pakistani Taliban.

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is expected to announce whether he will run again for the leadership of his Kadima Party, now that his party's election committee set an August 24 deadline for candidates vying for the chairmanship.
The prime minister is being investigated for alleged corruption, bribery, fraud and breach of public trust.
According to Jerusalem Post political analyst Gil Hoffman, colleagues close to Olmert said he would have to make a decision soon.
Contenders for Kadima party chairman include Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, Transportation Minister Shaul Mofaz, and Public Security Minister Avi Dichter.
Should none of the candidates receive the 40 percent needed to win the election, a runoff will take place on September 24.
Tension has been building among contenders for party leadership, especially because the winner will lead the party's ticket in the next general election. Livni disagreed with remarks by Mofaz that she lacks experience in security-related matters.
"We need a good defense minister and there will be a good defense minister, but security doesn't mean only that you served in the army. It is how you make decisions, plan strategy and think things through," Livni said.
"I am ready to be tested, not only on what I say, but also on what I have done," she said.
Meanwhile, Mofaz said that with the Olmert coalition on the verge of collapse, all further negotiations with the Palestinians should stop.
"At this time of change in the government, we must not reach agreements on the core issues, such as future borders or the status of Jerusalem, in negotiations with the Palestinians," Mofaz said.
"Anything that is decided now is very problematic because it is happening before the change in the government against a background of instability on the Palestinian side," he said.
Mofaz's remarks were directed at Livni, who heads the Israeli delegation in negotiations with the Palestinian Authority, and at the Bush administration, which continues to push Israel into signing a document before the end of his tenure.

Posted on 02/02/2011 3:59:10 PM PST by wagglebee

Rodger Winn ought to DEMONSTRATE for us what this means ~ just give him some pills and a bottle of pristine mountain water ~ he chugalugs it all down ~ we'll be the judge of whether or not it works.
I know of a woman who bragged that she sat by and watched her own father being killed because he had Alzheimer's. People were shocked at her attitude, and she was surprised that everyone didn't praise her for it. Later, she became her mother's care giver when her mother developed Alzheimer's. When her mother died, she was very quiet about the circumstances. I've often wondered.
I've noticed that people who support killing off vulnerable people usually have personal reasons for that support.
This is evil.
My grandma had alzheimer's. We let her disease run it's course, as awful as it was. And she died with me in her bed snuggled up to her as she drew her last breath. I hated how out of it she was, and I know she would have been embarrassed if she had any clue how she behaved in those final days. But I'm not God. Neither is my dad; there was never any talk of "pillow treatment" or anything like that So, we just had to deal with the cross we were given to carry. And that's what we did. She was treated with respect & dignity until she died a NATURAL DEATH.
Death is rarely dignified; but dignity is the way we live and a large part of that is treating the dying with dignity. There is NO dignity is hastening a person's death.
Death is almost always painful, in various ways. Love and respect, like that shared by your family, helps to mitigate some of that pain. Killing only magnifies the pain. The best any of us can hope for is to be surrounded by loving people when our time here is done.
Barfing Oregon Ping list.
Please everyone, Pray for Oregon. It may well be the most messed up state in the Union.
I am not a supporter of euthanasia at all, but I've been grappling with a difficult question lately.
People are living longer with today's medical care, but not necessarily healthier. In many cases, it seems that we're just spending money to keep people with irreversible medical conditions alive another week (so to speak).
I mean, what's the point of living to one's 80s or 90s if you're in such poor condition? Some enjoy excellent health into their old age, but all too many don't.
If living to 100 means that I'm senile, have poor mobility, bad hearing, or anything like that, and can't enjoy life or contribute anything productive to society, forget about it. I'd rather just go at 70 of a quick heart attack or whatever.
People who are mentally impaired are not able to make decisions regarding life and death. This is wrong from every possible perspective.
I hope that as you continue to grapple with all of the questions and issues of life you will find that it is as precious as it is short. May God bless you, FRiend.
Right to Die = Duty to Die
There's a strange detachment there, which seems to be more widespread in our society than might have seemed possible twenty or thirty years ago.
"A heart attack is not the same as "assisted suicide"
That's true; it's not. William F. Buckley got it right, in my opinion. Had a quick heart attack while writing a column for his magazine. Not a bad way to go.
"we often find that reading a good book, going to a good movie, or sitting in the garden at twilight with a friend or loved one over a cup of tea or a glass of wine can be as wonderful as those things that we enjoyed as children and young adults."
You can enjoy that if you're in good health, not if you're suffering all kinds of debilitating medical conditions.
Do you know that half of all medical expenditures in the United States are for persons over the age of 75?
"I hope that as you continue to grapple with all of the questions and issues of life you will find that it is as precious as it is short. May God bless you, FRiend."
This particular question has really been nagging at me lately. Given that we're all going to die eventually, it would be better to be healthy and active to the end. Unfortunately, all too many are not.
Is that your real concern here? Do you know that someone over the age of 75 is still a human being? Do you know that despite not being in the good health of a 20 year old, that they may still find life worth living?
Do you have a point in all of this?
Do you know that the overwhelming majority of the medical expenditures in the US are paid for by the patient's insurance or Medicare (which they have also paid for)?
Do you know that your "concerns" aren't exactly new?
I'm 60 and have scoliosis with herniated disks. I'm also going blind in one eye. Are you suggesting that I'm useless?
I have 40 rose bushes that I planted in clay and rocks. It is a thing of beauty. Who are you to say who is "useful"?
Beautiful. :)
Yes and if they show up at my house they'll get a face full of a shovel. :-)
Imho, it's due to a combination of fear and contempt. Fear of aging and death, and contempt for others. Such elitists seem to be somewhat detached and lacking in empathy, although they often express their opinions as concerns for others.
Sometimes the direct approach is best. :)
This is why is it soooo critical that we NEVER institute national health care. Once your health becomes the property of "the people", then your right to live becomes subject to consensus.
Assisted Suicide is a simple way to accomplish a holocaust. Just declare people incompetent and then the state can make the decision to assist them in their suicide.
Socialism will ultimately always end in holocaust. When people go on the public dole, they become the property of the state, and when you become a burden to your owner, you the owner can always find a way to gently put you out to pasture... and shoot you to put you out of your misery.
Liberalism Kills. Never forget that.
I have often found that to be true. It saves time too.
We all have such busy lives these days. :)
My mother is very ill. Congestive heart failure, other complications, etc. She has made it clear and in no uncertain terms that she wants her DNR enforced. No ventilators for assisted breathing either. She's only 66. She's a nurse and spent the bulk of her 35 plus years working with the elderly. She has seen literally hundreds of terminally ill patients waste away over the last few months of their lives and wants no part of that for herself. She's of sound mind and made her preferences clear. Who am I to act against them? Still, this is a struggle.
The difference comes when measures are taken (deliberate overdoses or other medications designed to end life, removal of nutrition and hydration) that will only result in death.
My M-i-L had polio as a child. Her parents were told that she'd never walk again but she did. She "burned new pathways". She broke her ankle when she was 82. She was in a wheelchair for 6 weeks. When they tried to stand her up again, the 79 year old "new" pathways had stopped working. She never walked again. When she contracted pneumonia they wanted to put her on a ventilator. We said an emphatic "NO". The reasoning was that her legs had quit working so we had no way of knowing if she'd ever be able to breath without the ventilator again. She made it until she was 88. There is NOTHING that isn't pro-life in the choices we made. We were not trying to actively kill her and we absolutely were thinking of her future and quality of life.
That include shovels. lol
Well said.
Our entire culture is so super saturated with death, it is beyond depressing!!
Choose life, PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!! That you and your descendants might live!!!
Not only do they want the slippery slope, they want the great leap off into the abyss. But they want it for others, not (just) themselves.
So, government assisted murder, in other words? Hasn't that been tried in places like Germany and the USSR. I think China practices this..
"Do you know that despite not being in the good health of a 20 year old, that they may still find life worth living?"
I know. I just feel sad that so many suffer. I wish something could be actually done for them more substantially than just patching the person up, so to speak. Please don't get me wrong. I don't believe in assisted suicide. Your life is between you and the man upstairs.
"A person has every right to have a DNR or medical directive against ventilators. This IS NOT incompatible with being pro-life because they do not necessarily end a person's life."
True. Although you could end up like Ariel Sharon (ie. braindead, but your organs still function without life support machines attached). What then? There's no real answer to a situation like that.
Not at all. You're still able to be active and do something you love doing.
Ah, that was a heartbreaking episode. Here was a woman that maybe couldn't speak, but otherwise was fully conscious and aware of her surroundings. We could have saved her, but sadly failed.
"Do you know that someone over the age of 75 is still a human being?"
Absolutely. Unfortunately, society doesn't value people that age the way they should. An example would be the mandatory retirement age of 65 that many companies have, which is essentially equivalent to euthanizing someone.
I admire anyone who can still work and be productive into their old age. To me, it means you did something right with your life and aren't a quitter.
