Pay Attention To This Gym Teacher To Understand The
Arab-Israeli Conflict...
Pay Attention To This Gym Teacher To
Understand The Arab-Israeli Conflict...
By Gerald A. Honigman for ekurd.net
Indeed, Salah al-Din, a
Kurd, became the terror of Christendom. Religion
served as a cover for political conquest of millions
of native peoples.
For millennia, Turks of various stripes, Iranians, and Arabs largely ruled
most of the region. By the 19th century, however, a
new wind began to blow in the region bringing with
it renewed dreams of independence among various
subject populations. By the end of World War I,
statesmen such as Britain's Lord Cecil and Sir Mark
Sykes, America's President Woodrow Wilson, and
others were calling for Arabia for the Arabs,
Armenia for the Armenians, Judea for the Jews, and
Kurdistan for the Kurds .
While some might say that this was just a foreign
imperial ploy to divide and conquer the region for
their own benefits, while this ingredient may indeed
have some truth attached to it, there is also no
doubt that native imperial powers were also acting
solely to further their own interests.
Seeing itself as the only real legitimate heir to
the Turks' centuries of imperial rule, Arab
nationalism, in its own various stripes, proclaimed
the entire area simply to be "purely Arab
patrimony," and none--besides Arabs--were to be
allowed to see their own dreams of independence
fulfilled in the new age of nationalism fast coming
into this region and elsewhere with the
disintegration of former empires.
The following oft-quoted (by myself) excerpts of
statements by a major, native, non-Arab "Berber" (Amazigh)
spokesman from North Africa hits the nail square on
the head. Please pay close attention to this Special
Dispatch of MEMRI on May 3, 2007, written by
Belkacem Lounes of the World Amazigh Congress, as he
responded to Libya's Mu'ammar Qaddafi's denial of
the very existence of the Amazigh people:
The people of whom you speak...speak their own
Amazigh language daily...every day live their
Amazigh identity...What worse offense to elementary
rights is there than denying the existence of a
people...30 million in North Africa? You menace the
Amazigh, warning that whosoever asserts his identity
will be a traitor...identical problems in Algeria
and Morocco...There is no worse colonialism than
internal colonialism--that of the Pan-Arabist claim
that seeks to dominate our people. It is surely
Arabism--an imperialist ideology that refuses
diversity--that constitutes an offense to history
and truth...
Or, check out how these excerpts and paraphrases
from the New English Review on January 18, 2008 and
reported in the former North-of-Africa.com on July
3, 2009:
In Algeria, Berbers were forbidden to use their own
language, Tamazight...riots erupted, reported in
France but ignored elsewhere in the West...America,
of course, had been sufficiently subject to ARAMCO
(the Arabian American Oil Company) propaganda, a
payoff to the Saudis by Big Oil, to allow the latter
to produce and market Arab oil. So, ARAMCO's message
to America was that there is just an Arab world in
this region in which there are no Copts, Armenians,
Assyrians, Chaldeans, Turkmen...and, of course, no
Berbers and no Jews--they all came to Israel, you
see, from Europe for everyone in this region is just
The American State Department has been in bed with
ARAMCO since its creation...Does its historical
animosity towards Israel now become a bit clearer?
So, what we have seen over the last century has
actually been a combination of internal and external
imperial forces colluding for their mutual,
parochial interests at the expense of other native
peoples. This has led to such things as the forced
Turkification, suppression, murder, and/or
subjugation of scores of millions of Copts, black
Africans (not only in the Sudan), Imazighen/"Berbers,"
Kurds, native kilab yahud ("Jew dogs"), Assyrians,
and so forth. Kurds and Berbers are often not even
allowed to practise their own culture, speak their
own language, etc. and so forth. Imagine Israel
doing this sort of thing to Arabs living in its
territory. No doubt, there would be hell to pay by
the Jews on the international scene, yet who is
demanding justice for those folks mentioned above?
Which brings us to the present...
As Marshall Tito kept the violently antagonistic
populations of "Yugoslavia"--forged together by
others after World War I's break up of the
Austro-Hungarian Empire--from slitting each others'
throats (literally), there was never a real question
that when he died the nation would implode into
murderous chaos.
Saddam Hussein served as an even more brutal uniter
of Great Britain's own earlier creation, Arab Iraq.
The latter was forged, upon the break- up of another
empire (the Turk's), by shafting the Kurds after the
favorable Mosul Decision by the League of Nations in
1925 uniting the oil of their northern areas with
the other Arab regions of the new British Mandate to
make the whole entity more economically viable.
With Saddam gone, Iraq seemed/seems destined to go
the way of Yugoslavia. This remains to be seen...
There has always been competition between those who
espouse a more tolerant, more encompassing Iraqi
nationalism versus Arab nationalism in the state.
The latter has always won out in the long run.
The semi-autonomous situation Kurds find themselves
in today is, at best, a temporary necessary evil in
most, if not all, Arab eyes.
The Kurds are seen as a necessary buffer Shi'a Arabs
can--and have--used against Sunni Arabs who like to
blow both of the former folks apart.
Sunni Arab leaders declared the Kurds to be a thorn
in their sides in the past, declared the potential
birth of Kurdistan to be "another Israel," and
launched the Anfal Campaign a while back which
slaughtered, gassed, and so forth hundreds of
thousands of them. And a look at how Shi'a Iran
treats its own millions of Kurds is probably a fair
gauge of what the Shi'a in Iraq have in mind as well
after they feel they have gotten a better handle,
one way or another, on the Sunni problem. Oh yes,
the latter slaughtered tens of thousands of Shi'a
too not that long ago.
In the meantime (prior to the emergence of Iran's
sister state, the Shi'a Islamic Republic of Iraq?),
America has helped to create a delicate balancing
act in the country. What will happen, however, when
America has largely exited is not too promising to
those who are students of the area.
Under this balancing act, the three main
populations--Shi'a Arabs, Sunni Arabs, and
Kurds--share power, to one extent or another, and
hold the top positions in government.
Largely a symbolic position, the Kurds have come to
occupy the President's position, Jalal Talabani the
current office holder. But, as a March 13, 2010 New
York Times article on this subject (and more recent
ones) points out, even this symbolic postion is a
bone in Arab's throats.
Muqdad Jaafar, a professor of physical education at
Baghdad University, put it this way:
I prefer him to be an Arab...We're an Arab country,
surrounded by the Arab world.
Once again, as we've seen earlier, scores of
millions of non-Arab peoples in the region simply
don't exist or are to be merely discounted in Arab
On a similar note, Egypt's late President Sadat's
Foreign Minister, Dr. Boutros Boutros Ghali, told
visiting Israeli author, Amos Elon, that for Israel
to be "accepted" in the region, it must do what he
did--accept Arabization...or else.
Read all of this yet again very carefully, for, in
this, you will indeed discover the real root cause
of the Arab-Israeli conflict...the inability of most
Arabs to grant anyone else but themselves even a
tiny sliver of the very rights they demand for
themselves. http://q4j-middle-east.com

This animated visualization of precession, eccentricity, and obliquity is simple and straightforward, provides text explanations, and is a good starting place for those new to Milankovitch cycles.
In this classroom activity, students analyze visualizations and graphs that show the annual cycle of plant growth and decline. They explore patterns of annual change for the globe and several regions in each hemisphere that have different land cover and will match graphs that show annual green-up and green-down patterns with a specific land cover type.
An interactive that illustrates the relationships between the axial tilt of the Earth, latitude, and temperature. Several data sets (including temperature, Sun-Earth distance, daylight hours) can be collected using this interactive.
In this activity for undergraduates, students explore the CLIMAP (Climate: Long-Range Investigation, Mapping and Prediction) model results for differences between the modern and the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and discover the how climate and vegetation may have changed in different regions of the Earth based on scientific data.
This activity engages learners to investigate the impact of Earth's tilt and the angle of solar insolation as the reason for seasons by doing a series of hands-on activities that include scale models. Students plot the path of the Sun's apparent movement across the sky on two days separated by three months of time.
This Motions of the Sun Lab is an interactive applet from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Astronomy Applet project.
This animation demonstrates the changing declination of the sun with a time-lapse animation. It shows how the shadow of a building changes over the course of a year as the declination of the sun changes.
This classroom activity is aimed at an understanding of different ecosystems by understanding the influence of temperature and precipitation. Students correlate graphs of vegetation vigor with those of temperature and precipitation data for four diverse ecosystems, ranging from near-equatorial to polar, and spanning both hemispheres to determine which climatic factor is limiting growth.
This short video, adapted from NOVA, explains how Earth's position relative to the Sun might be responsible for the dramatic shift in the climate of what is now the Saharan nation of Djibouti.
This video segment, from the 'Earth: The Operators' Manual' featuring climate expert Richard Alley, shows how ice cores stored at the National Ice Core Lab provide evidence that ancient ice contains records of Earth's past climate - specifically carbon dioxide and temperature.

"Guardians of the Galaxy" scribe Nicole Perlman has shut down rumors that the '80s cult classic film "Labyrinth" is being rebooted in the wake of David Bowie's death.
The rumors started on Friday with a report from The Hollywood Reporter that claimed TriStar had closed a deal with The Jim Henson Co. to remake the film, with Perlman responsible for the script. The information came less than two weeks after Bowie's death in the wake of an 18-month battle with liver cancer.

Keywords: Beach house
This is a little slice of heaven. The house is a nice 3 bed 2 bath beach house. It is older and has some wear and tear but that is the beauty of the house. Great for families looking to relax on the north side of town. Patio is very relaxing and sleeping to the sounds of crashing waves is a plus. The house manager Martin is very attentive to all your needs. Golf cart for getting around town is a bonus. We will definitely rent this again!!
Photos don't really do this place justice- just a beautiful beach and the sunsets....WOW. I would say the house really only sleeps 6, but we made do with air mattresses for 2 bigger kids. Kitchen is tiny- but totally worked. Owner and his wife were very responsive to any need and the location could not be beat! Best of all- our kids totally unplugged while we were there. Hours of playtime on the beach and exploring the darling town was enough- we did not want to leave!
Casa Tranquilo is a great beachfront property on the quite north end. We spent many hours sitting on the patio enjoying the views. Just a few steps down to the beach…we swam daily. The house was clean and plenty of hot water. The kitchen is on the small side but has all the amenities needed. The back bedroom and TV room was a little stuffy, I image it would be quite hot during the hot/humid season. Not a real problem because the main reason to rent this place is the oceanfront. The golf cart was handy but not a necessity.
The location of this home cannot be beat. The gorgeous panoramic view from the huge deck (where we spent many many hours) has to be the best on the beach. It is on a quiet stretch of the beach but close enough to get to restaurants and the main beach (surfing area) in a short walk. My husband and sons actually easily swam from the house to the main beach several times. This spot had everything. A short walk or ride in the golf cart to restaurants and shops, fishing in the ocean, swimming, quiet time on the deck watching the waves roll in and great walks on the beach. The house was spacious and had everything we needed, was clean and well appointed. This was a perfect place for us, with our 2 adult sons with us - any of us could do whatever we wanted at any time as everything was right there! The photos shown are exactly as it is - a beautiful location. We loved it and highly recommend it!!
we had in Sayulita! The house is perfectly located on the north side of the beach (more quite) it sits right above the beach with a stunning view of the bay. The beds are amazing and the kitchen is very well equipped. The owner and his wife are more then helpful and very fast to respond. The description is very accurate and the kids had a blast on the golf cart!!!We will definitely be back!
My wife and i usually go to cabo but this year decided to try Sayulita as the place has been getting alot of press. Our friends told us to stay on the north side. After being here for a week I can see why. The beach in front of the plaza is just a bit crowded for us and we dont like all the action. It was close enough (5 minute walk) but we prefered the house location to almost any other that we saw in town.
The house itself is a great place to hang out. Nice kitchen, the beds were clean and great linens and pillows. Bathrooms were very clean as well an that is a big one for us.
We loved just hanging out on the terrace and found myself reading and sleeping alot. Could not have been a better spot the sunsets where just incredible. The best part is that the property is so big that there is nothing to obstruct your view up or down the beach and its sits just high enough over the sand as to see everything going by, be it people horses, couples or joggers.
We are coming back. No more cabo.
Thanks for all

D.A.R.E. Ain't What It Used To Be Around Houston
D.A.R.E. was designed to keep a kid off drugs, but that's a tough feat without adequate funding. In the last five years, waning support from the state has forced some school districts to pull the plug on the program and forced others to downgrade considerably.
The Houston school district and the Alief school district abandoned the D.A.R.E program altogether. Cy-Fair school district participates on a school-by-school basis, and the Fort Bend school district nixed the program for a cheaper version called Kids and Cops.
The Pasadena school district still has a large program, but Katy school district is by far the largest.
KISD has its own D.A.R.E. unit, headed by Sergeant Tom Donalson, and a D.A.R.E. advisory board made up of parents and an officer liaison.

In the past, school districts received funding from state government for the costly program, but now the money is being used to upgrade security hardware and procedures as required by law.
"There's only a limited amount of grant money and I think the emphasis has swayed to securing the schools, which is a necessary thing because of terrorism and the age we live in," Donalson told Hair Balls. "It's unfortunate because you need to level things out. You need to still keep the preventative programs in place because that's part of it too."
The school district provides Donalson with a D.A.R.E. budget to cover basic program needs such as booklets, t-shirts and the officers' salaries. Anything else such as teaching aides, certificates and graduations are paid for by the advisory board.
As more money was needed elsewhere, cuts were made. For many school districts that meant the D.A.R.E. program. Cops were removed from D.A.R.E. assignments to patrol the streets, and very few school districts maintained a community service unit. KISD is an exception.
"What I like about Katy I.S.D. is that we have done it uniformly across the board. Every school gets the same thing when it comes to D.A.R.E.," Donalson says. "The school district sees the benefits of the D.A.R.E. program."
The parents see it too, which is key to keeping the program alive.
"The school districts will want to do it if the parents demand it," Donalson says. "It's kinda like the squeaky wheel. If they want it bad enough they're gonna find the money to do it."

The Middle East is largely Muslim but it's also the birthplace of Christianity, Judaism, and many other religions. Many non-Muslims have left in recent decades, leaving relatively small populations of non-Muslims and Muslim minority sects. Now, the rise of Islamist political parties in the Mideast raises questions about the rights and protections such minorities can expect or whether they can expect them at all. In this edition of America Abroad, we'll learn about the Jewish population in Tunisia, and how they're faring under a new Islamist government there. We'll hear from Egypt about the Christian community and their reactions to a new president. And we'll provide a primer on Alawites, the minority Muslim sect to which Syria's president Bashar al-Assad belongs. Advent Voices By Lynne Warfel • Dec 24, 2012 Airs Monday, December 24 at 2:00 p.m. Advent is a time of quiet contemplation and waiting. It's waiting for darkness to become light and for hopes to be realized. Throughout the centuries Advent has been observed musically in sacred and secular ways. Join us for an hour of the most beautiful vocal music inspired by and written for Advent. Mormon Tabernacle Choir presents Thanksgiving Blessings & Songs of Thanksgiving By Mormon Tabernacle Choir • Nov 22, 2012 Airs Thursday, November 22 at 2:00 p.m. Join the renowned Mormon Tabernacle Choir as they celebrate Thanksgiving in song and spoken word with Gently Raise the Sacred Strain, For the Beauty of the Earth, the Shaker Song Simple Gifts, Thou Fount of Every Blessing, As the Dew from Heaven Distilling, Thanks be to God, Look at the World, We Gather Together, Because I Have Been Given Much, and Come Ye Thankful People. Giving Thanks with John Birge By John Birge • Nov 22, 2012 Airs Thursday, November 22 at 12:00 noon New for 2012: With music and stories for Thanksgiving, host John Birge creates a thoughtful, contemporary reflection on the meaning of the holiday. This year, a grateful tribute to the great writer Nora Ephron, with a warm and funny highlight of her Giving Thanks visit last year. Original Thanksgiving music in the studio with pianist Jacqueline Schwab, heard by millions for her piano music for Ken Burns' "The Civil War." A Thanksgiving blessing from Baxter Black, and a visit from poet and former NEA chairman Dana Gioia. For listeners in the kitchen, on the road, or relaxing after the feast, Giving Thanks provides the perfect atmosphere for Thanksgiving: the warmth of great music, and truly memorable words. Birthday of the World Part 2: Yom Kipur By Leonard Nimoy • Sep 24, 2012 Airs Monday, September 24 at 1:00 p.m. Music and Liturgy for Yom Kipur, (The Day of Atonement) Sung by The Western Wind with Guest Cantors, Narrated by Leonard Nimoy.

Blame Internet for Waukesha stabbing? Or Judy Blume?

Can you remember those heady days in November 2010 after the midterm elections? The GOP had won a majority in the US House, and changed the US Senate from the 2008 result of 60 Democrats and 40 Republicans to a more manageable 53 Democrats and 47 Republicans. The new freshmen congressmen did not expect a hero's welcome from the Democrats or the national media when they showed up in January 2011, but they were not prepared for the fear and disdain from their own colleagues. They thought they would be welcomed instead of getting the bum's rush. Michele Bachmann and Jim DeMint did welcome them, and just about no one else.
I remember the 2011 Republican presidential primary debate in South Carolina. Cain noted that he is proud of his lack of public office and political experience, and asked, (since America had consistently elected a politician to the nation's highest office), "How's that working for you?" The Frank Luntz focus group was very impressed with Herman Cain, and the fear and disdain by the Republican establishment grew larger. Anyone who has a lack of elected public office experience needed to be put down in their opinion.
I believe the GOP has blown an opportunity that only happens about once every 60 years. Several individuals, who had had successful careers before entering politics, gave up those careers to become citizen legislators. They did not do it because it was an upgrade from a previously held political office, and they did not do it for the money. They stepped out of their comfortable careers because they had a sense of duty and honor to the nation, and they could remain silent no longer. Below are the pictures and bios of several of these men and women who had never before been elected to public office. You might be disappointed with some of these people who "failed" to change Washington, but I don't share your disappointment - because I know that it is going to take more than one election cycle to get Washington moving in the right direction.

The Big Orange trotted out to Haslam Field for the first day of their final week of spring workouts on Tuesday morning.
"It was a really good practice," Dooley said. "I think the players came off that second scrimmage. We got after them pretty good yesterday in the meetings, just about trying to make the game a little more personal.
"I told the team it's one thing to play hard, give effort and all of that stuff but there's a zero-sum element to this profession. There's a winner and a loser. You have to at that moment of truth have that mentality that you refuse to lose. That's what has to drive you. They did a really good job today and we'll see how they respond on a back-to-back tomorrow."
The Vols are slated to start popping the pads again on Wednesday morning at 9.

I needed an adapter to use my BRAVO 12volt air compressor on my inflatable SUP to get to 15psi. The BRAVO came with adaptors but you have to hold them on the SUP air connection and it sometimes slips off and you cannot walk away while it pumps. I am able to put this adaptor on the pump and it fits securely on my SUP so I can now get other things ready while it pumps up.
I did have to modify the adaptor so it would compress the push valve on the SUP's air connector otherwise for the pump to get the air in, it would always go to stage two of high pressure and low volume and would heat up.
Where the adaptor's rubber ring gaskett is I drilled holes and put a 2mm aluminum rod cut to size. Now when you twist the adaptor on it pushes in on the push valve and allows the pump to work more effeciantly.

I tried to use this adapter with my 12v pump to pump up an inflatable kayak (Aquaglide). But no air goes in the chamber unless the valve is open. Which means, of course, as soon as you disconnect the adapter, the air escapes.
The connector that came with the boat has a small bar in the middle that depresses the valve for filling. These do not.

Service and delivery comments:
If I had a company, I would want my customer service to be exactly like yours. A person answered my phone calls (no machine) in one or two rings. Staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. My order was back ordered and your staff explained the situation fully. I added an additional item to the back order and that was done smoothly and sent with the original order as I requested. I got an email stating when to expect delivery and it arrived as stated. All was in perfect condition. Thanks for such great service.

Comments about New Short H-R Fill Adapter:
Negative reviews are from folks with no ingenuity. Five minutes with a small drill will fix the auto valve open to close deal. Remove the seal drill two small holes opposite one another, tread a small wire through the holes and fold them over, replace seal. Can modify it faster than talk about it. Some folks may not want to use that feature so it's for everyone. Perfect in every way!

Q:I have both a two stage K-Pump and an old NRS Wonderpump(which still works well on Leafield valves after 15 plus years and occasional maintenance). I now own a SUP(Badfish MCIT) with the new short Halkey Roberts valves. My KPump has a universal adaptor which works but the pump has to be held perfectly straight to ensure a proper fit. The Wonderpump doesn't fit at all. Looking for advice in adapting Wonderpump for use in filling the SUP and for enhancing use of the KPump. Will this adapter work with either/both pumps and how do I attach it to my pump?Asked on 11/30/2014 by Bob from Charleston, WV
2 answers
A:It will work fine with the kpump. Had that valve and own a kpump. I just had to attach the adapter with a string so I wouldn't drop it in the water
Sent from my iPadAnswered on 11/30/2014 by Anonymous
A:Yes, Bob, this adapter locks into the New Short and you should be able to adapt it to both of those pumps. The Wonder Pump won't be able to reach the high pressure your SUP requires, but your K-Pump should do the job.Answered on 11/30/2014 by Clyde from NRS

Q:My air pump came with an adapter which looks like yours and snaps into my H-K valve but has no internal piece with which to depress the valve spring and allow air to enter. Does your adapter have such an internal valve spring depressor?Asked on 9/22/2013 by chas from CO
7 answers
A:No there is nothing in the middle...
Sent from my iPhoneAnswered on 9/22/2013 by Anonymous
A:Chas, sounds like you've got the right adapter for your H-K valve. The adapter doesn't have to push the plunger and spring down; the air pressure from the pump will push it down and let air in. Then when you quit pumping the valve will seal and hold the air in. Booyah!Answered on 9/22/2013 by Clyde from NRS
A:The valve is designed to allow air to enter without the internal spring being depressed. None of my adapters engage the spring. The spring is there for deflation purposes.
Sent from my iPadAnswered on 9/22/2013 by Anonymous
A:No. You push and turn the valve before inserting the air pump adapter to keep it open for the initial fill, then close it when it feels full. Then top it off with the valve closed - the air pressure depresses it.Answered on 9/22/2013 by Anonymous
A:This adaptor may or may not push the spring depressor down, depending upon the height of the valve. This adaptor twists onto the valve stem to secure it while you inflate through the valve and does sometimes push the depressor down so when you detach it, you have to immediately push on the depressor to stop air from escaping. This was too long for my valves, so I had to use a hack saw and remove about 1/8" from the end and it fits my valves perfectly.Answered on 9/23/2013 by Anonymous
A:No, the valve doe not have the cross piece you speak of. Have seen this on
some adapters, but the pump air pressure is enough to force air in and open
the valve. Works great.Answered on 9/23/2013 by Anonymous

A:John, the New Short is the only current Halkey-Roberts valve, but they made others previously. Use our H-R valve ID page to determine the right adapter - http://www.nrsweb.com/repair/hrvalves.aspAnswered on 6/17/2013 by Anonymous
A:I know this adapter works with the Fish Cat "Cataraft" I own. There are two adapter that are very similar. One will work with both valve, one with only it's own design. Buy a couple of extra ones and use a key ring to secure it to the frame of your raft. People will "borrow" them if they get a chance. RB

A Delta Air Lines flight from Minneapolis to New York City landed safely in Milwaukee after it was diverted.
Delta spokeswoman Kate Modolo says the crew chose to divert the flight Saturday morning out of an abundance of caution after the pilots detected a smoky odor on board.
She says the 148 passengers are being placed on another flight and will arrive at La Guardia in New York on Saturday afternoon.
Ryan McAdams is a spokesman for General Mitchell International Airport in Milwaukee. He said the flight landed safely at about 11:15 a.m.
Modolo says the source of the smoky odor is being investigated.

[CONCACAF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE]Before it begins defending its last two MLS Cup titles, Houston needs a result to stay in the game internationally. The Dynamo is in San Salvador to play Luis Angel Firpo Tuesday (10 p.m. ET, Fox Soccer Channel) in the first of a home-and-home exchange that is spread across four weeks and will decide the runner-up spot in Group B of the Concacaf Champions' League.
Houston lost to UNAM, 3-1, at home last week and with a 1-1-2 (W-L-T) record and five points, needs four more points to pass Firpo, which upset San Francisco FC of Panama, 3-2, to raise its record to 2-1-1 (7 points).
The Dynamo-Firpo match in Houston, originally scheduled for Oct. 7, had to be rescheduled because of Hurricane Ike. It will be played Nov. 26, three days after MLS Cup, but if Firpo wins Tuesday the match will be meaningless and could well be canceled.
Firpo stunned San Francisco with a barrage of goals after falling behind. Dennis Alas tied the game two minutes before halftime, Christian Sanchez put Firpo ahead four minutes into the second half and Patricio Gomez made it 3-1 only two minutes later. The defeat eliminated San Francisco; UNAM has already clinched a spot in the quarterfinals.
Jorge Sanchez and Mauricio Quintanilla are suspended for Tuesday game. No Houston players are suspended, which leaves Coach Dominic Kinnear with all of his options available.
"That's going to be difficult for us, going all the way to El Salvador," said Kinnear. "We've traveled a lot this year with the Champions Cup, SuperLiga and now the Champions League in addition to our MLS schedule and the [U.S.] Open Cup, but for the most part the guys have handled it well, so I'm looking for a big effort in an important game."
On Sunday, Houston plays New York at the Meadowlands in the first leg of their conference semifinal, so Kinnear is hoping to rest at least a few regulars and save them for what will be a rigorous match on artificial turf.
Group C action resumes Tuesday with CD Olimpia hosting Joe Public FC in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, and Montreal facing Atlante in Cancun, Mexico. Atlante and Montreal have clinched advancement.

Poundbury is an experimental new town or urban extension on the outskirts of Dorchester in the county of Dorset, England.
The development is built on land owned by the Duchy of Cornwall. It is built according to the principles of Prince Charles, who is known for holding strong views challenging the post-war trends in town planning that were suburban in character.
The development is built to a traditional high-density urban pattern, rather than a suburban one, focused on creating an integrated community of shops, businesses, and private and social housing. There is no zoning. The planners say they are designing the development around people rather than the car, and they aim to provide a high-quality environment, from the architecture to the selection of materials, to the signposts, and the landscaping. To avoid constant construction, utilities are buried in common utility ducts under the town. Common areas are maintained by a management company to which all residents belong.[1]
To some degree, the project shows similarities with the contemporary New Urbanism movement, except that the design influences are European. The design of the houses are in traditional and new classical styles, with period features such as bricked-up windows, a feature found on many old British buildings, due to the window tax.[2]
The overall plan was developed in the late 1980s by the Luxembourgian architect Leon Krier, and construction started in October 1993. Krier's plans have been criticised for mixing too many different continental styles and the use of non-local building materials, which are not consistent with the traditions of Dorchester. It is expected that the four plan phases will be developed over 25 years with a total of 2,500 dwellings and a population of approximately 6,000.
Greetings card entrepreneur Andrew Brownsword sponsored the £1 million development of the market hall at Poundbury, designed by John Simpson and based on early designs, particularly the one in Tetbury.[3]
Following New Urbanist principles, Poundbury was intended to reduce car dependency and encourage walking, cycling, and public transport. A survey conducted at the end of the first phase, however, showed that car use was higher in Poundbury than in the surrounding (rural) district of West Dorset.[4] Nonetheless, the community is receiving positive recognition from New Urbanist publications such as Better Cities and Towns.[5]
One notable local employer since 2000 is the breakfast food manufacturer and exporter Dorset Cereals, which employs more than 100 people at its purpose-built barn factory.[6]

Good stuff. Key take-away for me is that so many RSC sellers have no idea what they're selling, and don't really care.
I bought from a specialty store, and while I didn't spend megabucks, I know what I have.
October 11, 2012, 06:56 PM
Good video. Thankfully they let the safe guy do the talking. Fort Knox rules, BTW.
October 13, 2012, 12:03 AM
The only problem I have with these types of videos, and the types of guys that are making them, is that they usually aren't the authorities that they're putting themselves out to be.
People assume that because somebody sells safes, or even makes safes, that they know something about them. Many manufacturers, and many gun safe retailers, have little experience in the security business, and little hands on experience.
I know how a safe keeps somebody out, because I break into them. I know what it takes for a bad guy to haul a safe out of your house, because I move them. I know good design vs. bad design because I repair those that were poorly designed. I'm intimately familiar with the differences from one type/brand/model to another, because I work on all of them.
If a "safe guy" doesn't do these things, I would take anything he says with a grain of salt. The guy on this video certainly says some truthful things, but they said at the beginning of the video that he is the most knowledgeable safe guy in the US. I know a lot of guys that know a lot about safes. I've never heard this guy's name. He doesn't appear to belong to any of the professional organizations that knowledgeable safe guys belong to.
One easy test for a self proclaimed "safe company" is to ask the salesman what happens when you have a warranty issue with your new safe. If they tell you to call the manufacturer, they probably do not do the warranty work for the very product that they are selling. That says a lot.
It's still an OK video that makes some good points. I just don't trust these gun safe manufacturers or salesmen that try to come across as the experts that they certainly are not. Maybe one of these days, I'll make some Youtube videos. ;)
October 13, 2012, 12:32 AM
but they said at the beginning of the video that he is the most knowledgeable safe guy in the US
I expect that everyone takes that as hyperbole as opposed an objective informed position. Everyone here would be expected to recognize the overstatement simply because they can read the discussions here.
That aside, the value in the video is that it illustrates and drives home that there's much more knowledge about safes needed to make a decision on what to purchase and that there are clear signs the clerk selling an RSC in a big box retailer knows enough to sound convincing to the uninformed, but not the prepared shopper.
Maybe one of these days, I'll make some Youtube videos.
I wish you would. It would be of great benefit to others.

R Coronae Borealis is a peculiar low-mass yellow supergiant star, and is the prototype of the rare RCB class of variable stars, which fade by several magnitudes at irregular intervals. R Coronae Borealis itself normally shines at approximately magnitude 6, just about visible to the naked eye, in the constellation of Corona Borealis, but at intervals of several months to many years fades to as faint as magnitude 14. Over successive months it gradually returns to its normal brightness, giving it the nickname "Fade-Out star," or "Reverse Nova".[11]
The variability of R CrB was discovered by the English astronomer Edward Pigott in 1795.[12] It was known as Variabilis Coronae,[13] "Variable of Corona". In 1935 it was the first star shown to have a different chemical composition than the sun via spectral analysis.[14]
R Coronae Borealis is a variable star and the prototype of its class. It is one of only two R Coronae Borealis variables bright enough to be seen with the naked eye, along with RY Sagittarii.[15] Much of the time it shows variations of around a tenth of a magnitude with poorly defined periods that have been reported as 40 and 51 days. These correspond to the first overtone and fundamental radial pulsation modes for an extreme helium star slightly under one M☉.[7]
At irregular intervals a few years or decades apart R Coronae Borealis fades from its normal brightness near 6th magnitude for a period of months or sometimes years. There is no fixed minimum, but the star can become fainter than 15th magnitude in the visual range. The fading is less pronounced at longer wavelengths. Typically the star starts to return to maximum brightness almost immediately from its minimum, although occasionally this is interrupted by another fade. This irregular fading is the defining characteristic of the R Coronae Borealis variables and is thought to be due to the condensation of carbon into "soot" surrounding the star.
In August 2007, R Coronae Borealis began a fade to an unprecedented minimum. It fell to 14th magnitude in 33 days, then continued to fade slowly, dropping below 15th magnitude in June 2009. It then began an equally slow rise, not reaching 12th magnitude until late 2011. This was an unusually deep and exceptional long minimum, longer even than the deep five year minimum of 1962-7. However, R Coronae Borealis then faded again to near 15th magnitude and as of August 2014 it had been below 10th magnitude for 7 years. In late 2014, R Coronae Borealis brightened quickly to 7th magnitude but then began to fade again. As of May 2015 it is around 8th magnitude.[16]
R Coronae Borealis at maximum light shows the spectrum clearly of a late F or early G yellow supergiant, but with marked peculiarities. Hydrogen lines are weak or absent, while carbon lines and molecular bands of cyanogen (CN) and C2 are exceptionally strong. Helium lines and metals such as calcium are also present as expected.[17]
The spectrum is variable, most obviously during the brightness fades. The normal absorption spectrum is replaced by emission lines, especially HeI, CaII, NaI, and other metals. The lines are typically very narrow at this stage. Helium emission lines sometimes show P Cygni profiles. In deep minima, many of the metal lines disappear although the Ca doublet remains strong. Forbidden "nebular" lines of [OI], [OII], and [NII] can be detected at times.[16]
The spectrum at maximum indicates that hydrogen in R Coronae Borealis is strongly depleted, helium is the dominant element, and carbon is strongly enhanced. At minimum, the spectrum shows the development of carbon clouds that obscure the photosphere, leaving chromospheric lines visible at times.
R Coronae Borealis is about 90% helium and less than 1% hydrogen. The majority of the remainder is carbon.[18] The qualifies as a carbon-enhanced extreme helium star.
Modelling the pulsations suggests that the mass of R Coronae Borealis is 0.8-0.9 M☉. The temperature at maximum is reasonably well known at 6,900K and appears to decrease during the fades as the photosphere is obscured by condensing dust. The distance of R Coronae Borealis is not known exactly, but is estimated at 1.6 kiloparsecs. The luminosity is estimated from helium star models to be 19,000 L☉ and the star has a radius around 100 R☉. The absolute magnitude of −5 is consistent with R CrB variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud whose distances are known quite accurately.[8]
There are two main models for the formation of R CrB stars: the merger of two white dwarfs; or a very late helium flash in a post-AGB star. Models of post-AGB stars calculate that a star with the appearance of R CrB would have a mass around 0.6 M☉ so it is thought to have formed by the merger of a carbon-oxygen white dwarf and a helium white dwarf.[19] The detection of significant lithium in the atmosphere is not easily explained by the merger model, but is a natural consequence of a late helium flash.[8] Evolutionary models of post-AGB stars give a mass of 0.66 M☉ for R CrB, but with a considerable margin of error.[20]
The declines[edit]
The cause of this behaviour is believed to be a regular build-up of carbon dust in the star's atmosphere. The sudden drop in brightness may be caused by a rapid condensation of dust, resulting in much of the star's light being blocked. The gradual restoration to normal brightness results from the dust being dispersed by radiation pressure.
Direct imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope shows extensive dust clouds out to a radius of around 2000 astronomical units from the star, corresponding with a stream of fine dust (composed of grains 5 nm in diameter) associated with the star's stellar wind and coarser dust (composed of grains with a diameter of around 0.14 µm) ejected periodically.[21] The obscuration appears to happen closer to the star as clouds of carbon condense at shock regions in an expanding front.[16] A shell about 4 pc wide containing 2 M☉ of dust at 25 K has been detected around R CrB.[8]
