Articles 2
During the last two decades in particular, the concept of "Islamic terror" has been often discussed. In the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks on targets in New York and Washington which caused the death of tens of thousands of innocent civilians, this concept has once again returned to the top of the international agenda.
As Muslims, we completely condemn these attacks and offer our condolences to the American people.
In this article, we will explain that Islam is by no means the source of this violence and that violence has no place in Islam.
One point that should be stressed at the outset is that the identities of the perpetrators of the acts of terrorism which targeted the United States are not yet determined. There is a chance that these horrible attackers are linked to quite different centres. It may well be a communist organisation harbouring rage and hatred against American values, a fascist organisation opposing federal administration or a secret faction in another state. Even though the hijackers have Muslim identities, the questions regarding by whom and for what purposes these people were used will remain to be a mystery.
The fact remains however, that even if the terrorists have Muslim identities, the terror they perpetrated cannot be labelled "Islamic terror", just as it would not be called "Jewish terror" if the perpetrators were Jews or "Christian terror" if they were Christians.
That is because, as we will examine in the following pages, murdering innocent people in the name of religion is unacceptable. We need to keep in mind that, among those who were killed in Washington or New York, there were people who loved Jesus (Christians), Prophet Moses (Jews) and Muslims. Unless forgiven by God, murdering innocent people is a great sin that brings torment in Hell.
Thus, a religious person who has fear of God can never commit such an act.
The aggressors can commit such violence only with the intention of attacking religion itself. It may well be that they carried out this violence to present religion as evil in the eyes of people, to divorce people from religion and to generate hatred and reaction against pious people. Consequently, every attack having a "religious" facade on American citizens or other innocent people is actually an attack made against religion.
Religion commands love, mercy and peace. Terror, on the other hand, is the opposite of religion; it is cruel, merciless and it demands bloodshed and misery. This being the case, while looking for the perpetrators of a terrorist act, its origins should be sought in disbelief rather than in religion. People with a fascist, communist, racist or materialist outlook on life should be suspected as potential perpetrators. The name or the identity of the triggerman is not important. If he can kill innocent people without blinking an eye, then he is a disbeliever, not a believer. He is a murderer with no fear of God, whose main ambition is to shed blood and to give harm. For this reason, "Islamic terror" is quite an erroneous concept which contradicts Islam's message. That is because, the religion of Islam can by no means concur with terror. On the contrary, "terror" (i.e. murders committed against innocent people) in Islam is a great sin and Muslims are responsible for preventing these acts and bringing peace and justice to the world.
Terror, in its broadest sense, is violence committed against non-military targets for political purposes. To put it in another way, the targets of terror are entirely innocent civilians whose only crime is, in the eyes of terrorists, to represent "the other side".
Terror means subjecting innocent people to violence, which is an act bereft of any moral justification. This, as in the case of murders committed by Hitler or Stalin, is a crime committed against "mankind".
The Qur'an is a Book revealed to people as a guide to the true path and in this Book, God commands man to adopt good morals. This morality is based upon concepts such as love, compassion, tolerance and mercy. God calls all people to Islamic morals through which compassion, mercy, peace and tolerance can be experienced all over the world.
You who believe! Enter absolutely into peace [Islam]. Do not follow in the footsteps of Satan. He is an outright enemy to you. (Surat al-Baqara: 168)
The values of the Qur'an hold a Muslim responsible for treating all people, whether Muslim or non-Muslim, kindly and justly, protecting the needy and the innocent and preventing the "dissemination of mischief". Mischief comprises all forms of anarchy and terror that remove security, comfort and peace. As God says in a verse, "God does not love mischief makers". (Surat al-Qasas: 77)
Murdering a person for no reason is one of the most obvious examples of mischief. God repeats in the Qur'an a command He formerly revealed to Jews in the Old Testament thus:
So We decreed for the tribe of Israel that if someone kills another person—unless it is in retaliation for someone else or for causing corruption in the earth—it is as if he had murdered all mankind. And if anyone gives life to another person, it is as if he had given life to all mankind. Our Messengers came to them with Clear Signs but even after that many of them committed outrages in the earth. (Surat al-Ma'ida: 32)
As the verse suggests, a person who kills even a single man, "unless it is in retaliation for someone else or for causing corruption in the earth", commits a crime as if he had murdered all mankind on earth.
This being the case, it is obvious what great sins are the murders, massacres and, attacks, popularly known as "suicide attacks", committed by terrorists are. God informs us how this cruel face of terrorism will be punished in the hereafter in the following verse:
There are only grounds against those who wrong people and act as tyrants in the earth without any right to do so. Such people will have a painful punishment. (Surat ash-Shura: 42)
All these reveal that organising acts of terror against innocent people is utterly against Islam and it is unlikely that any Muslim could ever commit such crime. On the contrary, Muslims are responsible for stopping these people, removing "mischief on earth" and bringing peace and security to all people all over the world. Being a Muslim cannot be reconciled with terror. Just the contrary, it is the solution and prevention of terror.
This being the case, how did the popular term "Islamic terror" emerge?
What has been examined so far reveals that it is not possible to talk about an "Islamic" terror. Indeed, a closer look at the characteristics of the perpetrators explicitly reveals that this terror is not a religious but a social phenomenon.
The true message of a religion or another system of belief can be at times exposed to distortion by its pseudo-adherents. The Crusaders, who constitute a dark episode of Christian history, set a good example of this.
Crusaders were European Christians who undertook the expeditions at the end of the 11th century to recover the Holy Land (the area around Palestine) from the Muslims. They set out with a so-called religious goal, yet they laid waste each acre of land they entered with fear and violence. They subjected civilians to mass executions and plundered many villages and towns.
The Bible
Their conquest of Jerusalem, where Muslims, Jews and Christians lived under Islamic rule in peace, became the scene of immense bloodshed. They violently killed all Muslims and Jews by striking their necks. The Crusaders' barbarism was so excessive that, during the Fourth Crusade, they plundered Istanbul, also a Christian city, and stole the golden objects from the churches.
No doubt, all this barbarism was utterly against Christian political doctrine. That is because, Christianity, in the words of the Bible, is a "message of love". In the Gospel according to Matthew, it is said that Jesus said "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" to his followers (Matthew, 5/44) In the Gospel according to Luke, it is said that Jesus said "If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also." (Luke, 6/29) No doubt, in no part of the Gospels, is there reference to the legitimacy of violence; murdering innocent people, on the other hand, is unimaginable. You can find the concept of "murdering the innocent" in the Bible; yet, only in the cruel Jewish King Herod's attempt to kill Jesus while he was a baby.
While Christianity is a religion based on love that accommodates no violence, how did Christian Crusaders carry out the most violent acts of history? The major reason for this is that, Crusaders were mainly made up of ignorant people who could better be defined as "rabble". These masses, who knew almost nothing about their religion, who had never read or even seen the Bible once in their lifetime, and who were therefore completely unaware of the moral values of the Bible, were led into barbarism under the conditioning of Crusaders' slogans which presented this violence as "God's Will".
It is worth mentioning that in that period, Eastern Christians—the people of Byzantium, for instance—who were culturally far ahead of Western Christians, espoused more humane values. Both before and after the Crusaders' conquests, Orthodox Christians managed to live together with Muslims. According to Terry Johns, the BBC commentator, with the withdrawal of the Crusaders from Middle East, "civilized life started again and members of the three monotheistic faith returned to peaceful coexistence."1 The example of the Crusaders is indicative of a general phenomenon: The more the adherents of an ideology are uncivilised, intellectually underdeveloped and "ignorant", the more likely they are to resort to violence. This also holds true for ideologies that have nothing to do with religion. All communist movements around the world are prone to violence. Yet the most savage and blood-thirsty of them was the Red Khmers in Cambodia. That is because they were the most ignorant.
Just as ignorant people may take a violence-ridden opinion to the point of insanity, so they may confuse violence with an opinion against violence (or to religion). The Islamic world also experienced such cases.
In the period of our Prophet, there existed two basic social structures in Arabia. City-dwellers and Bedouins (Desert Arabs). A sophisticated culture prevailed in Arab towns. Commercial relations linked the towns to the outer world, which contributed to the formation of "good manners" among Arabs dwelling in cities. They had refined aesthetic values, enjoyed literature and, especially poetry. Desert Arabs, on the other hand, were the nomad tribes living in the desert who had a very crude culture. Utterly unaware of arts and literature, they developed an unrefined character.
Islam was born and developed among the inhabitants of Mecca, the most important city of the peninsula. However, as Islam spread to the peninsula, all tribes in Arabia embraced it. Among these tribes were also Desert Arabs, who were somehow problematic: Their poor intellectual and cultural background prevented them from grasping the profundity and noble spirit of Islam. Of this God states the following in a verse:
The desert arabs are more obdurate in disbelief and hypocrisy and more likely not to know the limits which God has sent down to His Messenger. God is All-Knowing, All-Wise. (Surat at-Tawba: 97)
The Desert Arabs, that is, social groups who were "obdurate in disbelief and hypocrisy" and prone to disobey God's commands, became a part of the Islamic world in the Prophet's time. However, in latter periods, they became a source of trouble for the Islamic world. The sect called "Kharijis" that emerged among Bedouins was an example. The most distinctive trait of this perverse sect (which was called "Kharijis" the rebels because they greatly deviated from Sunni practises), was their extremely vulgar, wild and fanatical nature. The "Kharijis", who had no comprehension whatsoever of the essence of Islam or of the virtues and the values of the Qur'an, waged war against all other Muslims and based this war on a few Qur'anic verses about which they made distorted interpretations. Furthermore, they carried out "acts of terrorism". Ali, who was one of the closest companions of the Prophet and was described as the "gate of the city of knowledge", was assassinated by a Kharijite.
In latter periods, "Hashashis", another brutal organisation, emerged; this was a "terrorist organisation" made up of ignorant and fanatical militants bereft of a profound understanding of the essence of Islam and thus who could be readily influenced by simple slogans and promises.
In other words, just as the Crusaders distorted and misinterpreted Christianity as a teaching of brutality, some perverted groups emerging in the Islamic world misinterpreted Islam and resorted to brutality. What is common to this sect and the Crusaders was their "Bedouin" nature. That is, they were ignorant, unrefined, uncultivated, vulgar, and isolated people. The violence they resorted resulted from this social structure, rather than the religion to which they claimed to adhere.
These examples from history are enlightening for a better understanding of the phenomenon, the so-called "Islamic terror", which is nowadays on the top of the international agenda. That is because those who emerge and carry out acts of terrorism in the name of Islam or those who back such acts—these people, no doubt, represent a minority in the world of Islam—stem from this "character peculiar to Bedouins", not from Islam. Failing to understand the essence of Islam, they try to make Islam, essentially a religion of peace and justice, a tool of barbarism, which is simply an outcome of their social and cultural structure. The origin of this barbarism, which may well be called the "Third World Fanaticism", is the benighted initiatives of people who are devoid of love for humans.
It is a fact that, for the last few centuries, Muslims in all corners of the Islamic world, are being subjected to violence by Western forces and their affiliates. The colonialist European states, local oppressive regimes or colonialists backed by the West (Israel, for instance) caused great suffering for Muslims at large. However, for Muslims, this is a situation that has to be approached and responded to from a purely Qur'anic stance.
In no part of the Qur'an does God command believers to "respond to violence with violence". On the contrary, God commands Muslims to "respond to evil with goodness":
A good action and a bad action are not the same. Repel the bad with something better and, if there is enmity between you and someone else, he will be like a bosom friend. (Surat al-Fussilat: 34)
It is no doubt a legitimate right of Muslims to react against this cruelty. However, these reactions should never turn into a blind hatred, an unjust enmity. God warns about this in the following verse:
... Do not let hatred for a people who debar you from the Masjid al-Haram incite you into going beyond the limits. Help each other to goodness and heedfulness. Do not help each other to wrongdoing and enmity. Heed God (alone)... (Surat al-Ma'ida: 2)
Carrying out terrorist acts against the innocent people of other nations under the pretence of "representing the innocent nations in the world", is by
no means compatible with Islam.
Consequently, carrying out terrorist acts against the innocent people of other nations under the pretence of "representing the innocent nations in the world", is by no means compatible with Islam.
Another point that deserves a special mention here is that all Western nations cannot be held responsible for the aforementioned violence and oppression against Muslims. Actually, the materialist, irreligious philosophies and ideologies that prevailed in the 19th century are responsible for these dismal acts. European colonialism did not originate from Christianity. On the contrary, anti-religious movements opposing the values of Christianity led the way to colonialism. At the roots of the greatest brutalities of the 19th century lies the Social Darwinist ideology. In the Western world today, there are still cruel, mischievous and opposing factors as well as a culture dominated by peaceful and just elements that have its roots in Christianity. As a matter of fact, the main disagreement is not between the West and Islam. Contrary to the general opinion, it is between the devout people of the West and of the Muslim world on the one hand, and the people opposing religion (materialists, atheists, Darwinists etc.) on the other.
Another indication that Third World Fanaticism has nothing to do with Islam is that, until recently, this fanaticism has been identified with communist ideology. As is known, similar anti-West acts of terror were carried out in 1960s and 70s by USSR-backed communist organisations. As the impact of the communist ideology faded, some of the social structures which gave birth to communist organisations have turned their attention to Islam. This "brutality presented under the guise of religion", which is formulated by the incorporation of some Islamic concepts and symbols into the former communist literature are entirely against the moral values constituting the essence of Islam.
A last remark about this issue is that Islam is not peculiar to a particular nation or geography. Contrary to the dominant Western perception, Islam is not an "Eastern culture". Islam is the last religion revealed to mankind as a guide to the true path that recommends itself to all humanity. Muslims are responsible for communicating the true religion they believe in to all people of all nations and cultures and making them feel closer to Islam.
Consequently, there is a unique solution for people and groups who, in the name of Islam, resort to terror, form oppressive regimes and turn this world into a dreadful place instead of beautifying it: revealing the true Islam and communicating it so that the masses can understand and live by it.
Today, the Western world is concerned about the organisations that use terror under the guise of Islam and this concern is not misplaced. It is obvious that those carrying out terror and their supporters should be punished according to international judicial criteria. However, a more important point to consider is the long-term strategies that have to be pursued for viable solutions to these problems.
The assessments above reveal that terror has no place in Islam and that it is a crime committed against humanity. They further show the inherently contradictory nature of the concept of "Islamic terror". This provides us with an important vantage point:
1) The Western world, especially the United States, will surely take the most dissuasive measures to cope with terror and it has the right to do that. However, it has to state explicitly that this is not a war waged against Islam and Muslims but, on the contrary, a measure serving the best interests of Islam. The "Clash of civilisations", the dangerous scenario envisioned in the 90's should be at all costs prevented.
2) Support should be provided for the spread of "True Islam", which is a religion of love, friendship, peace and brotherhood, and for its true understanding by Islamic societies. The solution for radical factions in Islamic countries should not be "compulsory secularisation". On the contrary, such a policy will incite more reaction from the masses. The solution is the dissemination of true Islam and the appearance of a Muslim role-model who embraces Qur'anic values such as human rights, democracy, freedom, good morals, science and aesthetics, and who offers happiness and bliss to humanity.
3) The source of terrorism is ignorance and bigotry and the solution to terrorism is education. To the circles who feel sympathy with terror, it should be said that terror is utterly against Islam, that terror only does harm to Islam, Muslims and to humanity at large. Besides, these people have to be provided with education in order to be purified of this barbarism. The United States' support to such an education policy will yield very positive results.
Our hope is that these measures will help to the world get rid of terrorism and all other bigoted, brutal, barbarous structures. With its Christian-dominated population, the United States, that defines itself as "a country under God's protection", is in fact a real friend of the Muslims. In the Qur'an, God draws attention to this fact and informs us that Christians are those who are "most affectionate to those who believe". (Surat al-Ma'ida: 82)
In history, some ignorant people (for instance, Crusaders) failed to understand this fact and caused conflicts between these two religions. To prevent the repetition of this scenario, true Christians and Muslims need to come together and co-operate.

You might check out the book, Raising Your Spirited Child. My first was increadibly intense for his first 4 years, and many of the things you talk about were him. He has a very persistent personality, so night weaning took quite a while. DH would take him back to bed, and usually end up spending the rest of the night sleeping with him. It helped that he was the only child in the house at the time, so when he was crying and wailing with Dad there weren't any other children kept awake. And, I ever "went back" because of illness or whatever, we went though night weaning all over again. While you won't find a "method" for helping with sleep in the book, it can help you to understand your child better and why the things that work for others aren't working for the two of you. DS nursed until he was 3 1/2 (and I thought he would never wean). One day he announced that he was going to nurse for 3 more days, and that is what he did. I was shocked. In the end, I'm (mostly) glad a stuck things out with him, we we had imposed several rules along the way to make nursing tolerable for me. One of them was to count to 10 when I was ready to be done. I could count fast or slow, starting when he started nursing or 10 minutes into a session or whenever. He could then ask for the other side, but after a while, he didn't. This helped to get rid of some sessions. I nursed then handed him off to dad to finish putting him to bed. Eventually, he could nurse in the morning after I showered, at nap, and at bed time. Then, it was just 2 times a day. Although he constantly pushes at rules, having them is important to him and helped both of us. Before he night weaned, I could even count in the night and he would come off, roll over, and go to sleep.
Two can be a time of seperation anxiety and a lot of developmental changes that might life for momma tough for a while. Hang in there! Making changes, especially with a child like your son, is never easy, but when you reach the point where dealing with the protests is worth it, you can make progress. BTW, DS is almost 6 now, very bright, loving school, generally a joy to be around, sleeps in his own bed all night, and even goes to sleep without a parent right there most nights. There is hope.

On the latest edition of Phillies Nation TV, we talk, who else, Chase Utley. What's with the lack of communication within the organization? Kind of odd that Ruben Amaro says one thing, Utley another. We discuss.
Also, I got a chance to talk with John Timberlake (yes, Justin's uncle), the Clearwater Threshers GM and Director of Florida Operations. We discussed looking over the youngsters and expanding on Bright House Field.
Also, questions and comments with the lovely Natalie Egenolf. Plus, fan reactions from Clearwater that are hilarious.

Corey sure nailed the Juan Pierre question.
Starks was on the radio today. Right on the money. There is no way this team will make the playoffs. I am so glad he said it. The scouts are even down on this team. He said if Pence goes down there in trouble. He said they have no offense. Ultey keeps everything to himself. Teamates are upset. Howard who knows with that injury. He said Ruin tomorrow has no money to play with and no prospects. They are so done. Miami and Washington will be the teams to beat. Sorry the truth hurts. Who scares you on this team…BYE
This deserves a billboard — during the playoffs.
When I win the MegaMillions tomorrow night, I'm going to set aside some of my winnings to purchase this billboard somewhere along 95 during September and October.
Wait just a minute! I was planning on winning. I have it all planned out, but I won't be stingy, I'll fit the billboard into the budget.
Jeff the angry Mets fan….
Any fans that think this team has no problems -live in a fantasy land… But anyone that thinks this team will not contend -is just as crazy
Jeff i think they will still compete. It be tougher for them but i believe they will find ways to win. Expect a lot of 3-2 games and a lot of nail biting, cursing, heart palpitations that sort of thing. Utley has always been Utley no surprise there. We all wish he would be more upfront but it just wont happen. I sure hope the Phils dont trade any of the baby aces for Theriot. The Phillies have added cheap potential power guys in Wiggy, Nix and Thome but none of these guys has hit for high average recently. Wasnt this the problem before Cholly waiting for the big hit. Oh and Cody F'ing Ross…
Mets fan. LOL. I do not think so. You guys come on here and god forbid you say anything negative about this team. They have many problems. Forget the injuries. Salaries? Long term deals? No propects that any team wants? Come on
We agree there — they have many problems. Some of which they may be able to spend their way out of, and some note.
The question is what it all means for 2012 — you'll get a pretty wide range of opinions on that, and yours is at one extreme of the range.
off topic, but D. Brown's stats since going back to AAA camp. 12 ABs, 6 hits, 1 3B, 2 HRs. I know sample size, but we don't need defense on the phillies (we have Vic, Galvis, Ruiz, Rollins), we need offense.
D. Brown should of been traded by now. We have seen him play and he is lazy. Bad defense. Jogging to the ball. You cant teach that. Blanton should of been gone a long time ago. This team needs offense and they go out and bring in a big time closer for a fortune. We did not need to spend that kind of money for him. Utley is done. Howard who knows how he will react when coming back. Thats a huge injury for a big man. Polly, come on. The guy will be lucky to play 85 games this year. write it down. rollins has be declining. This team does not look good.
I don't think so (applies to every sentence).
You lost me after your non-ironic "should of."
The "should of traded Brown" gave it away for me.
I think that Thome would do better in the fourth spot rather than fifth unless there's certain matchups. Other than that, looking great.
It is interesting to hear that Rollins is batting 3rd and not leadoff.
Corey – with respect – Ryan Howard makes every scoop at first base? Not only doesn't he do that, but he is also good for missing one or two balls thrown directly at him by infielders at least three times a season. I'm not saying he is a horrible fielder, but i had to take umbrage with your scoop observation. Nice rainbow collar on the polo shirt, though. Go Phils. Here is your lineup:
The Dipsy
make that "two or three balls a season thrown directly at him a season". Thanks to the Department of Redundancy Department for catching that.
The Dipsy
@The Dipsy: Nice line-up for opening day. However, Charlie Manuel has a notebook written containing a hundred variations of a lineup for every occasion just in case of injuries, slumps, opposing pitchers, etc. (chuckles)
The keyword/password for this season is…"smallball."
Hey, I'll give the guy props for a keen fashion sense.
The Dipsy
so, you're in the bar doing the show. where are the beers?
naturally like your web site however you need to check the spelling on quite a few of your posts. Many of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very troublesome to tell the reality nevertheless I will surely come back again.
This is perhaps the most insulting bot-spam I've ever seen. WTF?
I believe this is among the so much important info for me. And i am satisfied reading your article. But wanna observation on some general issues, The site style is great, the articles is truly great : D. Excellent job, cheers

The Darlington Police Department is asking for the public's help in locating a missing 14-year-old girl who they believe might have left the state with a man.
Police said Adriana Andrade has been missing since early Monday morning.
According to police, the investigation revealed she likely left Darlington willingly with a 22-year-old acquaintance, identified as Marcos Mermudez-Sanchez. Police said he's suspected of interference with custody of a child.
"Even though she may have went with him willingly, it's concerning being we don't know whether there was any type of intimidation or coercion to get her to go, and the reality is she's a 14-year-old girl whose parents did not consent for her to leave our community, and so the family is obviously concerned about her well-being," said Darlington Police Chief Jason King.
The vehicle likely used in this case was a maroon 2000 Chevy Blazer with Wisconsin registration 389-UWM, according to the Darlington Police Department.
Police said all attempts to reach either of the two subjects by family and authorities have been unsuccessful.
Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the Darlington Police Department at 608-776-4981.

Im curious about the term so-called and its proper usage. In the past I seemed to only notice it when it was used with condescension or for somewhat dubious concepts. However, I have noticed it used more often for seeming well know concepts.
Does anyone have an opinion on this?
OH and what's up with the Hyphen?

I'd say your perception of the condescension or dubiousness is correct. Can't say off-hand that I've seen it used less pejoratively, though. Have any citations?

It's another example of what I call smearing and what others call semantic shift, diluting the Mother Tongue as a term takes on more and more new meanings. Eg, "Beg a question" meant asking in such a way as to imply or suggest a predetermined answer. "Drive" used to be a mechanical device
The time is coming when any word can come to mean anything at all and so it doesn't matter how you say it. These things used to bother me before I turned in my credentials as a prescriptivist. I am firstname.lastname@example.com_________________________

i think the new usage dates back to the TV show (mid 1990's) with claire dane, "my so-called life' about teen age angst.
(tough times in an uppermiddle class home, with lots of spending money, lots of things, and professional career parents, who still had time to sit and have long talks with their teens (who didn't experiment with drugs, sex or other life style choices. )_________________________

I saw it this morning, but I have seen it other times as well that I can't quote.
(NBC Nightly News With Brian Williams narrowly overtook World News With Charles Gibson on ABC to become the most-watched of the three network evening newscasts in November, a so-called sweeps month regarded by advertisers and the networks as a bellwether of the broadcasts fortunes.)
I have heard of sweeps and have seen them widely labled WITHOUT "so-called" being attached. But seeing it this morning made me really wonder when it should or should not be used.

as you can see, using it 'merely to call attention' has been going on for a while.
edit: it should be noted that in predicative use, so called by grammarians, it is properly wtihout hyphen and means 'called or designated by that name.'
well, it's easy to see how that became so-called "smeared".

As usual, Wikipedia leaves out the salient jus du mot. Beppo is the Italian hypocoristic form of Giusepe 'Joseph', hence 'Joe'. No shmir intended (on my part). As for G-d's chimp, talk to the Colbert about it.)

The hyphen makes the two words into an adjective.
"The book is well-known."
Sometimes the distinction is necessary.
"He drank from a well known to be poisoned."
"He couldn't remember my name, and so called me thingamabob."

Mayo Clinic Health System is offering new medical services in Holmen.
The health system recently completed renovations to the existing clinic.
The renovation added 12 new exam rooms, two procedure rooms, one ultrasound room and provided space to expand the existing rehabilitation services.
The addition is an effort to be more convenient to patients. "What we have to think about is this is not just Holmen. We serve communities north of Holmen and then traveling even farther south past Holmen, this gives them a bit of a break. The ability to have physical therapy here and not have to travel. Even though Onalaska has wonderful services, people in this community like to stay within the community," said MCHS Patient Care Director Deb Cholewa.
The Holmen Clinic is also starting to provide prenatal care as well as a range of gynecology services.
The new gynecologist says while major surgeries will still have to be done in La Crosse, he is able to perform minor procedures. "Here people are much much younger. They do have a job that they can not come all the way down to La Crosse. So we're trying to target those young females to come over here with the convenience that doesn't need to travel so much," said Jun Koike, OBGYN.
The patient care director at Mayo says they are already researching what types of services they may add in the future.

5 Days in the Slickrock Wilderness 5/24 - 5/28
Back by popular demand....
The boys and I haven't been on a long backpacking trip in a while. A few short one nighters, but nothing big. We were supposed to do a big 4 day trip on Forney creek back in March, but was cut short after the first night by a death in the family. So I was determined to get a BIG trip in so 5 days over Memorial Day weekend seemed like a good way to go big. Since Julie was coming along as well, that meant the dogs too, so it was off to the National Forest instead of the Smokies. The plan was to start at Big Fat Gap (3060'), hike to the Hangover (~5200') for views of the sunrise, over to Naked Ground where we would take the Slickrock trail down the second nights camp by the creek. The next day we camp just below Wildcat falls, and though we had planned originally to keep going, we decide to stay at Wildcat two nights, and head out via Big Fat Gap Trail Monday.
We got a late start Thursday, so I didnt get many pictures on the way up. It was getting dark by the time we got near, and since I hadn't been here before and I didn't have time to scout around for the actual "Hangover" we found a campsite on the mountaintop and setup for the night. The next morning, Nolan and I climbed a tree in camp and snapped a few pictures of the sun rising over North Carolina.
Our camp viewed from the tree.
The sunrise.
When we were coming down from Naked Ground we passed though another amazingly beautiful azalea bald (which the boys affectionately dubbed "Purple Death Land", and Jack asked if it was possible to die from claustrophobia.) I had to stand on a rock and hold the camera over my head to get this picture. The rest of the trail was a blur of purple, green, and bees.
Then we had the rest of the slickrock trail to get down. There isn't much to say or show about that trail. It is unmaintained, overgrown, steep, miserable, with a couple of steep 6-8' dropoffs thrown in for fun. Somehow though, the boys pushed through it all without a single complaint! We've been on much easier trails that I had to drag them along, I almost thing it was the fact that the trail was so challenging that kept them engaged the whole time. Even going downhill, it was the worst, and most exhausting trail I've ever been on.
We made camp near the confluence of Slickrock and Hangover creeks. The next morning Jack and I went fishing. Jack was the first one to hookup, and I was happily surprised to see that he had caught a brookie on a yellow neversink. I was curious whether brookies existed in the upper Slickrock drainage, and searching online, I never found a definite answer, though i saw opinions both ways. Now I know.
From here we packed up and hiked down below Wildcat Falls. We decided to take it easy and spend two nights there. We found a wonderful campsite, well off the trail. right on the water with plenty of room for all all five of us.
And the boys did what boys do... swam, caught salamanders and crayfish, made hiking sticks with their names carved in them, played stickwars, read books, swung in their hammocks, and ate, ate, ate.
to be continued.....
The next morning, I woke up early before everyone, and went off to go fishing. I just worked the short section up between camp and the falls. The trip was more about family time than fishing, but I had to get a little in. I managed two browns, both 10", which were nice fights on the 3wt. The second one I caught in the tail of the pool below the falls, and for some reason he didn't want to swim off when I released him, so I kept him.
Since we weren't going anywhere, I made a huge breakfast of cheese biscuits with gravy, pancakes, and that brown trout was SOOO good mixed in with the gravy and biscuits.
Jack and I did try some fishing downstream from camp that evening, but neither of us had any luck that round. Didn't matter though, it was still a great time rock hopping up and down the streams, sharing pools, and watching my boy cast to that rock a hundred times refusing to leave because he "just knows there's one hiding on the other side of it." I didn't have the heart to tell him he'd probably spooked the fish to death by now.
Finally Monday morning had arrived, and still none of the boys were ready to go, but we had to. We packed up camp, headed back across the creek, and up Big Fat Gap. The trail was surprisingly easy, but I think all of our expectations of "easy vs hard" trails have been raised since doing the upper slickrock trail.

Wow great report it is cool to have your whole family out backpacking for that long you have some real troopers there JayB. It is good to know there are folks like you out there doing things like this with your kids.
Adam Beal
Hey Jack (JAB)...
Nice report Jay. I like the family photo.
I left that creek a bit frustrated a few weeks ago.
I will second both Grannyknots and Crocketts comments. Really great report and thanks for sharing. Spending time in the backcountry with family makes it unforgetable.
Great report! It is good to see families out backpacking. You are a blessed man.
We came down Slickrock Creek trail once and only once. It was in 1980 and even back then someone had had carved "Abandon hope all ye who enter here" into the trail sign at the bottom.
Awesome report. I can't wait until my crew is old enough to do that kind of trip,
Outstanding report JayB. What a great time with your family. Those were some nice campsites and fish as well Thanks for sharing with us all.
Wyatt Walker
I am jealous. I wish that I could have spent that many days on Slick Rock. Those are some great pictures. I was up there the day before you all started your trip. I will make it up to the brookie water some day. Did you happen to see all of the big rocks that someone had managed to balance on their ends? I didn't notice any above Wildcat falls the day that I was up there but, there were some not far below it.
I wish I had more time to fish it more thoroughly, but I enjoyed the time I had. I didn't notice any balanced rocks. We made it down as far as the first crossing below Wildcat, which is less than ~15 minutes on the trail, and worked out way all the way back from there. Did see the big indian cave and all the trees and rhodo that were sliding off the cliffs down into the water in that area. Craziest thing seeing a huge tree sitting rootball first in the middle of the stream, and a big bare spot of rock up on the cliffside.

Almost every facet of a manual press is as important to productivity and print quality as the next. Consider the features and functions described here when shopping for a new manual press.
By Screen Printing's Solution Sourcebook
No matter how large your garment-printing operation, chances are that manual presses play an important role. In larger shops, these presses may be used to handle sampling and overflow work, while in smaller shops manual models may be the backbone of production. But regardless of what part manual presses play in your facility, the machines must be sturdy, accurate, and reliable.
Ease of use is the first thing to look for in a manual press. You do not want a machine that takes excessive effort to use. Some believe that the heavier a press is built, the stronger and better it is. This is not necessarily true. For example, some presses are built like tanks but have weak registration systems. On the other hand, there are plenty of solid manual presses that require twice the effort to operate.
Start your search for manual garment presses by polling your fellow printers in the industry. Ask for their general opinions on the performance of units they've used. Developing a general consensus can help steer you in the right direction. In addition to getting user feedback about different press models, here are some other features and considerations to keep in mind:
Number of colors The number of colors supported by the press you plan to purchase is always an important concern. If you operate a fledgling company, you may want to plan for expansion from the standpoint of colors. Although you may be satisfied initially with a six-color press to keep things simple, you might instead want to consider an eight-color unit that will accommodate future jobs.
Microregistration Design movement during a job run is one of the most frustrating aspects of manual screen printing. To reregister an image, you typically have to wipe the screens clean and print your registration marks. Having a good microregistration system will enable you to make small adjustments to get the print back in register without having to clean the screens. When assessing a press's microregistration, determine whether the system is easy to work with, accurate, and able to hold its position well once you've tightened down your screens.

2 bodies found in rural Oneida Co. house fire
State fire marshal's office assists with investigation
Authorities have found two bodies in the ruins of a large house destroyed by fire in rural Oneida County.
Crews were called just before 4:30 a.m. Tuesday to the house about 20 miles west of Rhinelander. When firefighters arrived, they found the house engulfed in flames.
Sheriff's Lt. Lloyd Gauthier said authorities believe the couple who lived at the home may have died in the fire. Their vehicles were found in the garage, but the husband and wife could not be found.

New Gear From Garage Snowboards This Season
|Garage is laying low for 2007-2008. Are we building? Yes, but only for existing customers in limited number. What's up? Well, since every board we make seems to turn into 10 more we have to make, we're just not interested in working that hard right now.
Garage Snowboards - Their Specialties
|At Garage we're riders first. We only make snowboards, but we're driven to do it because our thirty-year design foundation and uncompromising technical insights create boards noticeably better than anything we could buy. Our niche is an incredibly small minority of riders who recognize that the performance and durability of the "best" boards out there really isn't that great, and that it doesn't have to be that way. Garage is in business on our own terms: we own everything in the factory, free and clear. We designed our tooling and equipment in SolidWorks and built everything on CNC equipment. We build our snowboards in a small shop in Montana. We have enough presses and tooling to make 40,000 boards a year, but we won't. We also don't farm out production. Our stuff is fundamentally different, so it's really not possible for us to have boards built elsewhere without sharing secrets we'd rather keep.

Our new isolationismSeptember 11,2013The United States has just spent thousands of American lives in a distant land for a victory that now seems hollow, if indeed it can be called a victory at all. Our own country, moreover, is emerging from a recession, dispirited and self-absorbed, worried about the fragility of the recovery and the state of our democracy. Idealism is in short supply.
So, as another far-off war worsens, Americans are loath to take sides, even against a merciless dictator, even to the extent of sending weapons. The voices opposed to getting involved range from the pacifist left to the populist right. The president, fearful that foreign conflict will undermine his domestic agenda, vacillates.
This is the United States in 1940. Sound a little familiar?
Ive been reading two engrossing new histories of that time Those Angry Days by Lynne Olson and 1940 by Susan Dunn both focused on the ferocious and now largely forgotten resistance Franklin D. Roosevelt had to navigate in order to stand with our allies against Hitler.
Of course, 2013 is not 1940. The Middle East is not Europe. President Barack Obama is not FDR. But America is again in a deep isolationist mood. As a wary Congress returns from its summer recess to debate Syria, as Obama prepares to address the nation, it is instructive to throw the two periods up on the screen and examine them for lessons. How does a president sell foreign engagement to a public that wants none of it?
The cliché of the season is that Americans are war-weary from our long slogs in Iraq and Afghanistan. That is true, but not the whole story. To be sure, nothing has done more to discredit an activist foreign policy than the blind missionary arrogance of the Bush administration. But the isolationist temper is not just about the legacy of Iraq.
Economic troubles and political dysfunction have contributed to a loss of confidence. Add to the mix a surge of xenophobia, with its calls for higher fences and big-brotherly attention to the danger within. (These anxieties also helped give rise to the expanding surveillance state, just as nativism in that earlier period gave license to J. Edgar Hoovers obsessive eavesdropping.)
Isolationism is strong in the Tea Party, where mistrust of executive power is profound and where being able to see Russia from your front yard counts as mastery of international affairs. But sophisticated readers of The New York Times are not immune, or so it seems from the comments that arrive when I write in defense of a more assertive foreign policy. (In recent columns Ive advocated calibrated intervention to shift the balance in Syrias civil war and using foreign aid to encourage democracy in Egypt.) Not our problems, many readers tell me.
Isolationism is not just an aversion to war, which is an altogether healthy instinct. It is a broader reluctance to engage, to assert responsibility, to commit. Isolationism tends to be pessimistic (we will get it wrong, we will make it worse) and amoral (it is none of our business unless it threatens us directly) and inward-looking (foreign aid is a waste of money better spent at home).
We are not the worlds policeman, nor its judge and jury, proclaimed Rep. Alan Grayson, a progressive Florida Democrat, reciting favorite isolationist excuses for doing nothing. Our own needs in America are great, and they come first.
At the margins, at least, isolationists suspect that our foreign policy is being manipulated by outside forces. In 1940, as Olsons book documents, anti-interventionists deplored the cunning British plutocrats and imperialists, who had lured us into the blood bath of World War I and now wanted to goad us into another one. In 2013, it is supposedly the Israelis duping us into fighting their battles.
Many pro-Israel and Jewish groups last week endorsed an attack on Syria, but only after agonizing about a likely backlash. And, sure enough, the first comment posted on The Washington Post version of this story was, So how many Americans will die for Israel this time around? This is tame stuff compared with 1940, when isolationism was shot through with shockingly overt anti-Semitism, not least in the rhetoric of the celebrated aviator Charles Lindbergh.
Both Lynne Olson and Susan Dunn, in interviews, were wary of pushing the analogy too far. The Middle East, they point out, is far murkier, far less familiar.
In 1940 everything was black and white there was no gray, Dunn told me. On one side, Adolf Hitler and ruthless, barbaric warfare; on the other side, democracy, humanism, morality and world civilization itself. Yes, at least so it seems in hindsight, but the choice was not so clear in 1940. Both books offer copious examples of serious, thoughtful people who had real doubts about whether Hitler was a threat worth fighting: Cabinet members and generals, newspaper publishers and business leaders. At Yale, Dunn reports, an antiwar student movement that included such future luminaries as Gerald Ford, Potter Stewart and Sargent Shriver drafted a petition demanding that Congress refrain from war, even if England is on the verge of defeat. Olson told me she was startled to hear Secretary of State John Kerry inveighing against armchair isolationism last week in his testimony on Syria. I think to be skeptical now does not mean youre an isolationist, said Olson, who is herself skeptical about taking sides in Syria. Its become a dirty word.
Fair enough. But can we dial down the fears and defeatist slogans of knee-jerk isolationism and conduct a serious discussion of our interests and our alternatives in Syria and the tumultuous region around it?
The event that ultimately swept the earlier isolationists off the board was, of course, Pearl Harbor. But even before the Japanese attack the public reluctance was gradually giving way, allowing the delivery of destroyers to the British, the Lend-Lease program, a precautionary weapons buildup and the beginning of military conscription.
One factor that moved public opinion toward intervention was the brazenness of Hitlers menace; Americans who had never given a thought to the Sudetenland were stunned to see Nazis parading into Paris. Another was a robust debate across the country that ultimately transcended partisanship and prejudice.
Most historians and popular memory credit Roosevelts leadership for the countrys change of heart, but Olson points out that for much of that period Roosevelt was to borrow a contemporary phrase leading from behind. He campaigned in 1936 on a pledge to shun political commitments which might entangle us in foreign wars and to seek to isolate ourselves completely from war. It was a vow he renewed repeatedly as Hitler conquered country after country: there would be no American boots on the ground.
Olson argues that while Roosevelt resolved early to send aid to Britain, it is not at all clear that he would have taken America into the war if it had not been forced upon him by Pearl Harbor. But by December 1941, she writes, the American people had been thoroughly educated about the pros and cons of their countrys entry into the conflict and were far less opposed to the idea of going to war than conventional wisdom has it.
Obviously we got into it because of Pearl Harbor, but that debate made a crucial difference, Olson told me. And I think that is whats called for now.
Congress in recent years has not won much respect as an arena of policy debate, but it was heartening last week to hear leaders of both parties moving a little beyond petty obstructionism and bitter partisanship and inviting a serious discussion.
I hope that Congress can elicit from the president this week a clear and candid statement of Americas vital interests in Syria, and a strategy that looks beyond the moment. I hope the president can persuade Congress that the U.S. still has an important role to play in the world, and that sometimes you have to put some spine in your diplomacy. And I hope Americans will listen with an open mind.
