Technical Details
3rd Rack
The 3rd rack offers easy-loading silverware tines for cleaning flatware.
Flexible Silverware Basket
This basket splits along its length, resulting in two halves that may be placed in a variety of positions in the lower rack, greatly increasing the lower rack�s loading versatility. The basket snaps together either back to back or end to end.
AquaStop� system contains leaks through a precisely engineered tub and sensor system that works with our solid molded base. If a leak has occured, it shuts down operation and automatically pumps out water to avoid contact with the floor.
Full Size Stainless Steel Tall Tub
Bosch is the only major manufacturer to offer a full size stainless steel tub that installs perfectly flush to cabinetry.
ExtraShine� Option
Used in combination with a wash cycle (except Rinse),the Extra Shine option helps dishes and glassware come out exceptionally clean with perfect shine by raising the temperature and extending the drying time.
Bosch dishwashers are so quiet, you may forget they�re on. InfoLight� projects a red light onto the floor during the wash cycle that turns off when dishes are ready.

Player Type: All Round Stroke Player, Developed for players who demand an ultra lightweight bat with supreme balance.
Construction: English Willow, Quality hand selected English Willow expertly handcrafted by our master bat makers.
Profile: Low-Mid Blade, New and improved profile with concave crafted spine ensures maximum edge thickness and side profiling for destructive precision.
Handle: Semi-Oval 12 Piece Cane, Specially selected cane delivers an optimal combination of power, control and flexibility.
Edge: Xtreme TAS Edge Profile, Contoured edges complete with revolutionary TAS inserts will take your game to the next level. TAS maximises edge protection to improve bat durability and edge performance.
Bow: Standard, A subtly bowed blade generates a perfectly balanced pick up to deliver increased power and control.
Toe: Tapered, New for 2013, a tapered toe as standard provides a superior stance position. Willow is distributed across the toe inline with a concaved profile for a better pick up.
Face: Flat/Rounded, The perfect combination of durability and power; edges are hand rounded for better performance.
Weight: 2lb 7oz - 2lb 10oz, Carefully handcrafted blade with sharp spine helps concentrate weight within the sweet spot.
Grip: Octoplus, New and improved for 2013 to offer superior upper hand grip and increased lower hand cushioning for exceptional feel and control.
Finish: Pre Knocked In with Slazenger IPS Toe Guard, All models are pre knocked in with selected models featuring the Slazenger IPS Toe Guard.
Improved for 2013, the OctoPlus grip combines different gradients of Octopus texture to deliver exceptional grip for the top hand and extra cushioning for the bottom hand resulting in a perfect balance of control and feel.
Classic style concave spine with maximum edge profiling provides superior bat stability across the hitting zone.
Toe taper profiling follows the natural lie angle of the bat improving stance positioning and grounding therefore providing superior bat durability.
TAS (Torsioned and Sprung) is a revolutionary edge technology designed to lift an average bat to a new level of performance and durability. The patented technology uses scientifically machined, pre-bent oak inserts which are reverse bent and twisted on installation to vastly improve edge strength and durability.
The oak inserts are installed down both sides of a routed blade and act like a spring upon ball impact which has the effect of increasing the sweet spot across the face, enabling ball rebound velocity in testing to increase by up to 27%. Additionally, TAS inserts improve the torsional stiffness of a bat, reducing overall twist in the blade by 10% when a ball is struck off centre.
TAS Inserts give the bat qualities of which there has never been.

Prairie South School Division candidate Darrell Markin wants quality education and teaching to flourish.
Markin is owner of Cross Canada Flooring and has three children presently in the public school system.
"I have one in pre-kindergarten, grade 3 and 6, and I'm thankful for the great quality in the system, but want to be involved further," Markin told the Times-Herald.
Markin said he wants to strive at getting the best value for families towards education. "I want to work with staff, children and all stakeholders at always getting better."
Markin said he's interested in early childhood education and is pleased with the change from a three year trustee term to a four. "It allows people who are voted in to keep building momentum for programs, it's a step in the right direction."

Choosing to eliminate animal products from your plate is one of the most powerful and effective things you can do to fight the cruelties inflicted on farmed animals, to improve your own health, and to help create a long-lasting, healthy environment. Your dollar is your voice. Use it to purchase only cruelty-free products.
As you are making your compassionate transition, IDA is here to help and support you. In our vegan starter kit you can find easy, delicious recipes and great information to help you start enjoying a plant-based diet. Join hundreds of thousands of people worldwide who have decided that they can– and will –improve the world by simply altering what they eat.
Help Spread the Word
You can organize or participate in a full-fledged demonstration, pass out leaflets, or set up an information table. IDA is here to help! We can send you materials, alert activists in your area, and send out a media release if you are doing a demonstration. Here are some tips and ideas for action:
Choosing a Location
Ideally, your event should be held in a busy public area.
Get Permission
Once you have chosen a location, you should check with the local police to learn whether or not permits are required for the event you planned.
The possibilities for vegan demonstrations are limited only by your imagination. Remember to be polite and professional at all times. Make sure to prepare talking points if you plan to send out a media release. It is a priority to have good literature and background information available for the media. The Demonstration Checklist will help you organize and coordinate your event.
Leafleting can be a great way to educate the public. Leafleting is less formal and involved than a demonstration. Gather some friends and hand out fliers in a well-trafficked area. Remember to always be polite and professional.
Setting up an information table in a public place is a simple and relatively easy outreach activity. Please see our Tabling Checklist to help you get started. And again, always be polite and professional.
Host a vegan potluck
Connect with your community to show them how good vegan food can be. You can organize one every month!
Join or start a vegan club in your school and plan events that will educate people about the benefits of a vegan diet. Write a paper on veganism, hand out vegan literature on campus, or help get vegan meals into your school's cafeteria.
Always be respectful and polite when talking about veganism. We want to win people over and show them how great the vegan lifestyle can be for animals, for the environment, and for our health. If you have any questions or require further assistance, please contact Christy Griffin at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Background:: Inflammatory bowel diseases are characterized by the presence of CXCL8 at the site of lesions resulting in neutrophil recruitment and loss of tissue functions. We report that P2Y6 receptor activation stimulates CXCL8 expression and release by intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). In this context, we investigated if uridine 5′‐diphosphate (UDP) enemas stimulate neutrophil recruitment to the mucosa of mice suffering from colitis‐like disease and we characterized the signaling events linking P2Y6 to CXCL8 expression in IEC.
Methods:: Neutrophil recruitment was monitored by immunofluorescence and FACS analysis. Expression of Cxcl1, a mouse functional homolog of CXCL8, was determined by quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Pharmacological inhibitors and interfering RNAs were used to characterize the signaling pathway. The outcomes of these treatments on protein phosphorylation and on CXCL8 expression were characterized by western blots, qPCR, luciferase, and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays.
Results:: Mutation of the AP‐1 site in the CXCL8 core promoter abolished the UDP‐stimulating effect. The c‐fos/c‐jun dimer was identified as the AP‐1 complex regulating CXCL8 in response to UDP stimulation. Regulation of CXCL8 expression by P2Y6 required PKCδ activation upstream of the signaling pathway composed of MEK1/2‐ERK1/2 and c‐fos. UDP administration to mice suffering from colitis‐like disease increased the number of neutrophil infiltrating the mucosa, correlating with Cxcl1 increased expression in IEC and the severity of inflammation.
Conclusions:: This study not only describes the P2Y6 signaling mechanism regulating CXCL8 expression in IEC, but it also illustrates the potential of targeting P2Y6 to reduce intestinal inflammation. (Inflamm Bowel Dis 2012)

A huge win, it's also just a hit on the pause button. Here's some context and ideas about paths forward.
With scarcely a mention in the mainstream media, President Bush has ordered up a plan for responding to a catastrophic attack.
Under that plan, he entrusts himself with leading the entire federal government, not just the Executive Branch. And he gives himself the responsibility "for ensuring constitutional government."
He laid this all out in a document entitled "National Security Presidential Directive/NSPD 51" and "Homeland Security Presidential Directive/HSPD-20."
The White House released it on May 9.
Other than a discussion on Daily Kos led off by a posting by Leo Fender, and a pro-forma notice in a couple of mainstream newspapers, this document has gone unremarked upon.
The subject of the document is entitled "National Continuity Policy."
It defines a "catastrophic emergency" as "any incident, regardless of location, that results in extraordinary levels of mass casualties, damage, or disruption severely affecting the U.S. population, infrastructure, environment, economy, or government function."
This could mean another 9/11, or another Katrina, or a major earthquake in California, I imagine, since it says it would include "localized acts of nature, accidents, and technological or attack-related emergencies."
The document emphasizes the need to ensure "the continued function of our form of government under the Constitution, including the functioning of the three separate branches of government," it states.
But it says flat out: "The President shall lead the activities of the Federal Government for ensuring constitutional government."
The document waves at the need to work closely with the other two branches, saying there will be "a cooperative effort among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of the Federal Government." But this effort will be "coordinated by the President, as a matter of comity with respect to the legislative and judicial branches and with proper respect for the constitutional separation of powers."
Among the efforts coordinated by the President would be ensuring the capability of the three branches of government to "provide for orderly succession" and "appropriate transition of leadership."
The document designates a National Continuity Coordinator, who would be the Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism.
Currently holding that post is Frances Fragos Townsend.
She is required to develop a National Continuity Implementation Plan and submit it within 90 days.
As part of that plan, she is not only to devise procedures for the Executive Branch but also give guidance to "state, local, territorial, and tribal governments, and private sector owners and operators of critical infrastructure."
The secretary of Homeland Security is also directed to develop planning guidance for "private sector critical infrastructure owners and operators," as well as state, local, territorial, and tribal governments.
The document gives the Vice President a role in implementing the provisions of the contingency plans.
"This directive shall be implanted in a manner that is consistent with, and facilitates effective implementation of, provisions of the Constitution concerning succession to the Presidency or the exercise of its powers, and the Presidential Succession Act of 1947 (3 USC 19), with the consultation of the Vice President and, as appropriate, others involved."
The document also contains "classified Continuity Annexes."

By Wendell Berry
Manifesto: The Mad Farmer Liberation Front
Love the quick profit, the annual raise, vacation with pay. Want more of everything ready made. Be afraid to know your neighbors and to die. And you will have a window in your head. Not even your future will be a mystery any more. Your mind will be punched in a card and shut away in a little drawer. When they want you to buy something they will call you. When they want you to die for profit they will let you know. So, friends, every day do something that won't compute. Love the Lord. Love the world. Work for nothing. Take all that you have and be poor. Love someone who does not deserve it. Denounce the government and embrace the flag. Hope to live in that free republic for which it stands. Give your approval to all you cannot understand. Praise ignorance, for what man has not encountered he has not destroyed. Ask the questions that have no answers. Invest in the millennium. Plant sequoias. Say that your main crop is the forest that you did not plant, that you will not live to harvest. Say that the leaves are harvested when they have rotted into the mold. Call that profit. Prophesy such returns. Put your faith in the two inches of humus that will build under the trees every thousand years. Listen to carrion—put your ear close, and hear the faint chattering of the songs that are to come. Expect the end of the world. Laugh. Laughter is immeasurable. Be joyful though you have considered all the facts. So long as women do not go cheap for power, please women more than men. Ask yourself: Will this satisfy a woman satisfied to bear a child? Will this disturb the sleep of a woman near to giving birth? Go with your love to the fields. Lie easy in the shade. Rest your head in her lap. Swear allegiance to what is nighest your thoughts. As soon as the generals and the politicos can predict the motions of your mind, lose it. Leave it as a sign to mark the false trail, the way you didn't go. Be like the fox who makes more tracks than necessary, some in the wrong direction. Practice resurrection.

free perf gauge
[Home][About Us][Membership][Member List][Links][Kids][Feedback][Magazines][Dealers][Societies][Articles][WhatsNew]
|What is a perforation
gauge? The earliest stamps did not have holes or
perforations on them so that you could tear out the stamp
before sticking them to the envelope. These stamps are
called imperforate. They were cut with scissors or blade.
The Irishmen Henry Archer is considered to be the
inventor of perforation. He sold his patent to the
British Ministry of Finance. The number of perforations
in a 2 cm length of stamp is called the perforation
number or Perf. They are a good way of identifying stamps.
If you sit and measure the perforation number, by
counting the holes in 2 cm, for all your stamps, you will
give up philately in a day.
Perforation gauges are used to measure the perforation number of a stamp. There are two types of perf gauges (i) a line type and (ii) spot type ( see tools and tips ). This perf gauge I have designed has the advantage of being FREE :) and the advantages of the line type (basically accuracy) and the spot type (basically ease of use). Try it out !
Download the PDF format Perforation Gauge. You require the Adobe Acrobat reader to print this file. You can download the reader from the Adobe site ( Download Adobe Acrobat Reader ) if you do not have one already installed on your PC.
Using the Perf Gauge is easy. Align the stamp such that the perforation on the extreme left is aligned with the 0.0 vertical line. Move the stamp up or down till all the perforation lines coincide with the perforations of the stamp as shown below. Observe the extreme right hand side perforations. Read out the perforation Number from the right hand side. Easy ?
No? If
you still have doubts don't hesitate to email me.

Hank Newman doesn't want anything special in life. Having survived two wars and many smaller confl icts around the globe as a United States Marine, he is content with being an unemployed drunk struggling with his violent past. Hank's is a simple life; drink each night to lessen the burden of his memories and run each morning to minimize the effects of his daily hangovers. The only problem is that he's short on cash and would do just about anything for money.
Growing up in a sleepy Colorado mountain town, Finn enlisted in the United States Marine Corps as a young man. After serving four years as an infantryman he went back to school and earned a degree in Business from the University of Colorado at Boulder. Upon graduation he choose a career with the Military opposed to one slugging it out in the offi ce cubicles of corporate America.
Jimmy Santos strode down the street maneuvering along the crowded sidewalk. The smell of fried chilies, corn and chicken mixed with exhaust fumes from a procession of passing faded late model cars and trucks. It was a hot day which made the heavy smog hanging above the city seem all that more ominous.

Here we are approximately halfway through the year for those businesses that adhere to a calendar year for business planning. The summer is upon us and for some businesses, this is the time when they take stock of where they are versus where they expected (hoped?) to be by now. Sadly, a good number of entrepreneurs will shake their head and wonder, "where did the first half of the year go?" And, then, they will ruefully admit to themselves that they are nowhere close to accomplishing what they had established as their objectives for the year.
All is Not Lost
Of course, while half of the year may be gone, that does not mean that the entire year can be dismissed or that business owners need to wait until next year to execute what they had planned to do this year. Below are some recommendations that can help entrepreneurs salvage a poor start to the year, or help extend the strong beginning to the year that may be showing signs of waning:
- Prioritize Goals – rather than chase numerous outcomes, only to fail to reach any of them or maximize results in any one goal – choose a select few goals to focus your attention (three would be the maximum). Choose true business building initiatives that will contribute to success and are worth the effort to pursue.
- Create intermediate goals – it can be rather daunting to try to capture the entire year's goal in one fell swoop. Rather, break the major goal into components or timed sections (quarter/month/week). That way, you can both track progress, but also feel a sense of accomplishment and reward as you move toward the larger goal.
- Have concrete measurements – rather than just establish as a goal, "increase sales" or "decrease bad debt" or other amorphous target, be very specific in how the goal will be assessed or evaluated (increase margin by 5%, reduce absenteeism by 3% by start of 4th quarter, etc.).
- Collaborate with others – whether it be employees, vendors, customers, or others familiar with the business, rely on others to provide perspective, assistance, ideas, referrals, etc. No one person can have a monopoly on the best ideas or the best practices. Sometimes, stepping out of the conventions common to your business and observing or learning from those in difference businesses can spark an innovative idea or introduce a method that would not have ordinarily occurred to the business owner.
- Manage yourself and your time – many business professionals have fallen prey to the evil email inbox. The email application allows for constant and ongoing communication, but it comes at the expense of distracting the recipient from what may be far more critical. The email system does not distinguish between what is "urgent" and "important" nearly as consistently as one's own calendar. If you have to choose, rely on the calendar to guide your behavior. What do you want to accomplish? By when? What tasks will be required to initiate that? Who else has to be involved? Etc. Responding to emails as a higher priority than managing one's pre-selected goals and objectives will rarely lead to success. Allow yourself a block of time to respond to emails (early in the morning, at lunch time, end of day) – and then turn it off. It is far too distracting to have the application open and teasing the recipient to engage with it (the same goes for text messages!).
Lastly, the piece of advice that I would offer to entrepreneurs is this – "exhale – you control you and therefore, you control the business – and not the other way around." You may feel some discomfort initially, however, you have climbed far steeper hills than this, and done so successfully.

As a companion to my post about Rock Band 3 from a few minutes ago, I want to let you know about a bunch of new tracks that were just revelaed for Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock. I have to say I'm impressed. The tracks contain a couple of just re-recorded tracks from personal heroes of mine (The Runaways doing "Cherry Bomb" and Alice Cooper's amazing "No More Mr. Nice Guy") as well as songs from The Ramones, Blue Oyster Cult, Styx, and Bad Brains.
Overall, it's a hard-ass collection of songs from real rockers -- In the words of The Replacement (not announced for Guitar Hero), color me impressed. Full list is under the break.
- No More Mr. Nice Guy (Album Version) Alice Cooper
- Ties That Bind Alter Bridge
- Ravenous Atreyu
- Re-Ignition Bad Brains
- Burnin' For You Blue Oyster Cult
- Machinehead Bush
- Burn (Remastered LP Version) Deep Purple
- Free Ride The Edgar Winter Group
- Hard To See Five Finger Death Punch
- Move It On Over (Live) George Thorogood and the Destroyers
- Call Me The Breeze (Live - (Fox Theater 2001 Deluxe Editi... Lynyrd Skynyrd
- I'm Broken Pantera
- Unskinny Bop (2006 Digital Remaster) Poison
- Spiderman Ramones
- Savior Rise Against
- Cherry Bomb The Runaways
- Speed Steve Vai
- Calling Strung Out
- Renegade Styx
- Motivation Sum 41
- Scumbag Blues Them Crooked Vultures
- Seven Nation Army The White Stripes
I think this list of songs kicks Rock Band 3's ass... and I say this as a confirmed Rock Band fanboy. Could it be the introduction of a keyboard and harmonies is softening Rock Band's spine?

Grandparents Week: Lucky at Cards
6 Jul
Grandparents are a treasure, whether they live nearby or they're very far away. This week we'll talk about ways to foster closeness between your children and their grandparents. It's Grandparents Week at The New Parents Guide!
My younger son and my mom have enjoyed playing cards together since he was big enough to hold several cards in his little hands without scattering them all over the floor. While he still hasn't perfected his poker face, my ten-year-old's favorite activity at his grandparents' (besides pilfering Vanilla Wafers from the pantry) is playing cards with his grandmother.
It's taken this long for him to learn that one of his favorite games is not called "GOLD Fish," but that doesn't diminish his delight in the game. He and my mom vie for the title of "Most Competitive" as they duke it out over a pair of Jacks.
Mom keeps those decks of cards handy in a drawer in the living room, but the animal-themed "Go Fish" cards as well as the "Old Maid" set are more than a little shopworn, and the only instruction cards that haven't been lost are in Spanish. It might be time to set my mom up with some new playing cards. Here's a set of 3 games that will be a hit with grandparents and grandkids alike!
Looking for board games? We've got plenty that will delight kids (and grandparents) of all ages.

Say it ain't so, Warner Bros., please, say it ain't so. Despite the fact that no film franchise seems to be immune from the modern remake machine, we go about our daily lives hoping that studios will exhibit a modicum of decency and leave some films and franchises untouched. So, imagine our horror when news leaked that Warner Bros. is attempting to reboot the Gremlins franchise.
News broke late yesterday (via Vulture) that Warner Bros. Pictures is currently negotiating with Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment about rebooting the classic, subversive 1984 film in which an adorable Mogwai inadvertently gives birth to an insane brood of evil green monstrosities called Gremlins. Gremlins was a tremendous hit, and was followed by Gremlins 2: The New Batch in 1990.
Don't panic just yet, however—it appears that in order for the reboot to happen, Warner Bros. has to get Spielberg onboard (likely as a producer), and apparently he's simply too expensive, as Warner Bros. has attempted this reboot many times before and has never been able to afford Spielberg's asking price. Here's hoping this gets shot down again before it even begins. No word yet as to whether or not Joe Dante, director of the two Gremlins films, is being involved/ discussed in any capacity.
What do you think of the Gremlins news?

His sidekick has special memory
By Michael O'Sullivan
Friday, August 24, 2012
Robots aren't particularly known for their sense of humor.
That's why the gentle laughs produced by "Robot & Frank" -- a clever, unexpectedly touching dramedy about the relationship between an aging former cat burglar (Frank Langella) and his robotic caregiver -- catch you a bit off guard. Some of the laughs come just from hearing the robot's voice (provided by Peter Sarsgaard) as he negotiates with the increasingly forgetful Frank, who's none too happy to have a babysitter. Sarsgaard delivers such throw-away lines as "If you let go of me, I'll do the dishes" with a delicious deadpan that's halfway between the blandishments of a psychopath and the wry observations of a shrink.
In fact, Robot, as he is called, is a little of both.
The automaton comes courtesy of Frank's son (James Marsden), who has reluctantly bowed to his father's wishes to avoid institutionalization, but who nonetheless believes the old man could use a little help around the house. Robot is programmed to act as Frank's personal chef, housekeeper and professional nudge, making sure that his client eats right, stays active and keeps out of trouble.
It turns out he's not so good at that last part. Frank quickly discovers that one thing Robot lacks is an ethical chip, making him an ideal companion for an ex-con whose hobbies include petty theft. Long retired from active breaking and entering after two stints in prison, Frank still has a bad shoplifting habit, compulsively stealing soap and knickknacks from the neighborhood store. When Frank discovers that Robot's hard drive includes a comprehensive database of all applicable local laws -- but no directive to actually obey any of them -- Frank enlists him as a high-tech accomplice. Soon the two are planning to burglarize the home of the wealthy techie (Jeremy Strong) who is overseeing the conversion of the town's library to digital.
Their victim is the film's true villain, who's seen as desecrating one of the last repositories of real memories: the old-fashioned kind that you find in books.
See, despite the plot, "Robot & Frank" isn't a heist film. Its theme is the impermanence of memory, and it's subtly articulated by director Jake Schreier, working from a smart script by Christopher D. Ford that grounds its futuristic conceit in the concerns of today.
Frank's memory is mutable, but so is Robot's. What Robot "remembers" of the crime that he helps Frank commit, and its potential as criminal evidence that can be lost or saved, is only part of how that theme plays out. Frank's significant relationships -- his friendship with Robot, his flirtation with a sympathetic librarian (Susan Sarandon) and his fractured connections with his son and daughter (Liv Tyler) -- all figure prominently in the film as things that are not just lived but remembered. "Robot & Frank" contains one of the best twist endings, produced by Frank's faltering memory, that I've seen this year. It isn't mind-bending, only heartstring-tugging.
Just about the time that Robot starts to grow on his curmudgeonly client, so may this movie -- a sci-fi fantasia that's surprisingly sweet and old-fashioned -- win over any skeptics.
Contains some obscenity and lawbreaking.,/p>

Sheik of Araby
Trombonist Jack Teagarden is undoubtedly a big reason for the songs jazz standard status, first with his 1930 recording with cornetist Red Nichols and again in 1939 with his own big band version.
- Chris Tyle
The Sheik was introduced in late 1921 on a Victor record by the Club Royal Orchestra. The following year, their recording and Ray Millers landed in third place in the charts.
Tin Pan Alley was ever vigilant to cash in on popular trends, whether it be automobiles, airplanes, radio or motion pictures. A 1921 film The Sheik, starring Rudolph Valentino, was perfect fodder, and on the heels of its release music publishers Waterson, Berlin and Snyder published The Sheik of Araby, sometimes known as just The Sheik.
Valentinos movie appearance solidified his status as a screen icon, especially among women who were known to swoon during his film appearances. The Sheik was based on a 1919 romance novel by English writer Edith Maude Hull and relates the story of an English girl who is kidnapped and seduced by an Arab sheik. The girl eventually falls in love with him and they marry. She discovers in reality that he is a British aristocrat. Valentino starred in a follow-up, The Son of the Sheik, in 1926, prior to his untimely death.
The Club Royal Orchestra was led by saxophonist Clyde Doerr, who had risen to fame through his work with Art Hickmans Orchestra. The group performed at the Club Royal and substituted for Paul Whiteman at the Palais Royal in New York. Whiteman, who was a friend of Doerrs from their days working in San Francisco, secured a contract for the saxophonist to record for Victor Records. Their first recording was The Sheik. Whiteman resented the records success and severed his ties with Doerr, although he continued to record with the Club Royal Orchestra for Victor and under his own name for Columbia. Eventually he severed his ties with the band and became involved with freelance recording and radio work.
Popular vocalist/actor Eddie Cantor performed The Sheik in a short-lived Broadway show, Make It Snappy. In true Tin Pan Alley fashion publishers came out with a number of offspring, including Shes My Sheba, Im Her Sheik and another success for Cantor, Lovin Sam, the Sheik of Alabam.
Chris Tyle - Jazz Musician and Historian
This is a classic early example of Ellington arranging existing material, as he crafts a sophisticated and intricately textured performance for his Orchestra at a relaxed tempo. The whole band shines, though the spotlight is brightest on Lawrence Brown, who plays a creative and nimble solo on trombone. Johnny Hodges and Barney Bigard are prominently featured as well.
A young Tatum provides a harmonically rich solo piano performance here that belies both his age and the basic simplicity of the tune itself. His playing is fluid, effortless and features some stunningly fast stride playing in his left hand.
This upbeat Tommy Dorsey performance of Sheik of Araby is slickly arranged, yet manages to capture a strong sense of Dixie-esque urgency, in large part due to the spirited playing of his Clambake 7. .
This performance showcases some great, muscular playing by Hawkins on the tenor saxophone. Other featured soloists here include J.C. Higganbotham on trombone and Benny Carter, putting down his saxophone for a turn on trumpet.
This sextet performance has a couple different grooves and features some unusually raw clarinet by Goodman. Vibraphonist Lionel Hampton and guitarist Charlie Christian eventually take the spotlight, both contributing fabulous solos.

"The fish goes nicely with this light salsa. I left out the cayenne to make it for my kids. Excellent dish. Grilling the tilapia outside left no fish smell in my house which was a nice bonus."

"I love this one. It's simple and light, yet very delicious. Pineapple was on sale at the grocery story yesterday. I immediatly thought of this recipe. I can't use the outside grill now but I broiled the fish in the oven and topped with the salsa and it was just as great as it was in the summer. I served over couscous. Yum!"

UCLA Officially Protects Promotion of Anti-Israel Boycott
A professor of World Arts and Culture who specializes in Native American cultures at the University of California at Los Angeles, David Delgado Shorter, has been given the official green light to continue using university resources to promote the boycott of Israel by the university's Committee on Academic Freedom.
Several months ago a California-based group focused on protecting Jewish students from academic anti-Semitism, AMCHA, learned from UCLA students that Shorter prominently features links to the U.S. Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel on his official class website. The students who brought the anti-Israel concerns to AMCHA were too worried about retribution to complain either to Shorter or to anyone else at UCLA.
The founders of the U.S. Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel have openly stated that their ultimate goal is the dismantling of the Jewish State. Hannah Rosenthal, the U.S. State Department's former Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism, has called their campaign anti-Semitic. It is AMCHA's position that all boycotts of Israel are deliberate assaults on the Jewish state and the Jewish people.
AMCHA took the students' information and approached UCLA administrators, asking whether UCLA considered it within the parameters of academic freedom to promote the academic and cultural boycott of Israel. According to Tammi Rossman-Benjamin, Lecturer in Hebrew and Jewish Studies at University of California Santa Cruz, and co-founder of AMCHA's Investigative Taskforce on Campus Antisemitism, there was never any intention to either censor or punish Shorter. They simply wanted to know, on the record, the answer to their question.
And now they do.
In a letter to Shorter dated July 9, 2012, the UCLA Academic Senate CAF determined that promoting the boycott of Israel on a professor's class website was "consistent with professional standards," and therefore that Shorter's promotion of that boycott, in the context of his classroom, would be protected by UCLA.
AMCHA points out that such a position conflicts with the UCLA Regents Policy on Course Content, which states that the misuse of the classroom for "political indoctrination" constitutes misuse of the University as an institution. Shorter's promotion of the academic boycott of Israel on his UCLA class website also appears to be a clear violation of the California Education Code , which prohibits the use of the name of any UC campus for the support, endorsement, or advancement of political or partisan activity or program, with "boycott" specifically named.
But the UCLA CAF was not content to simply exonerate Shorter. Instead, much of its two page letter to Shorter excoriated Leuchter for listening to an "outside group." Apparently the UCLA CAF imposes the same stringent standards for filing complaints as do United States courts: "The only parties who should have the standing to complain about whether the content of a course threatens academic freedom are members of the University directly affected by the content of a course (e.g., students or teaching assistants)."

THis Hitler professor, is the most disgusting piece of on earth.
Does this piece of know the truth, or has he distorted everything?
Israel will be here, long after that drek dies, which, hopefully, wont be too long.
zeig heil Ucla why don't you just change your offical emblem to a swastika and and show your true agenda.
David Shorter–is promoting hatred and murder among other things; this man and the leaders of UCLA are evil–they are hurting the student body and the school–obviously far more than they know!
I think he is an ally of Iran ! may his tribe be erased from the face of the earth!
I always say, "follow the money." do you know where UCLA's next large endowment comes from? $5 it's a saudi!
if you give money to UCLA, now is the time to stop.

Protecting The Rights Of Settlers And Activists: An Interview With Moshe Eyal of the Legal Forum for the Land Of IsraelTuesday, April 14th, 2009
In the aftermath of the forcible evacuation of thousands of Jewish settlers from Gush Katif in 2005, legal protection for settlers and right-wing activists in Israel was virtually non-existent. Meanwhile, legal organizations dedicated to the defense of basic rights for Arabs and left-wing Jews were thriving.
Stepping in to fill the vacuum was the Legal Forum for the Land of Israel, whose volunteer staff, comprised of Israel bar-certified attorneys and legal and financial experts, sought government accountability in cases involving the violation of settlers' basic legal rights.
The director of development of the Legal Forum for the Land of Israel, Moshe Eyal, recently discussed the accomplishments and objectives of his organization with The Jewish Press.
The Jewish Press: What prompted the creation of the Legal Forum?
Eyal: The Legal Forum was established in September 2004 in response to the changing policies of the Sharon government and the dangers such policies presented to the basic human rights of Jewish settlers in Judea, Samaria and Gaza.
My brother Nachie Eyal is the founder and director of the Legal Forum, and it was our view that a watchdog group of attorneys needed to be formed to challenge the laws of the Israeli government as it pertained to the rights of settlers.
While Israel lacks a bill of rights, we still felt it was inherently unconstitutional to evict Jews from their homes as was done in Gush Katif in the summer of 2005. We now have a staff of 40 volunteer attorneys and more than 200 members – including economists, academics and other professionals.
Before we arrived on the scene, the displaced settlers of Gush Katif had virtually no legal rights. We made it possible for them to sue for damages, both psychological and those relating to their property losses, in Israeli courts. Acting as legal counsel to those adversely affected by government policy, we took our cases to the Israeli Supreme Court and successfully sued for fair and equitable compensation for more than 600 families expelled from Gush Katif.
We have also lobbied the High Court of Justice for one billion shekels in compensatory payments for Gaza expellees and have filed more than 25 motions in the High Court, 15 of which regard the unjust government action during the disengagement.
What other issues does your organization consider of paramount importance from a legal perspective?
We are seeking to create alliances with other human rights organizations to fight against rampant political corruption, to champion environmental issues, and to safeguard human rights.
Subsequent to the recent evacuation of Jews from the Beit HaShalom building in Hebron, we filed a complaint against Avshalom Peled, the Hebron police commander, and the regional IDF spokesman for deliberately circulating a false rumor asserting that a Jewish activist had sprayed a police officer with acid and caused serious injuries.
An investigation revealed that neither the ambulance drivers called to Hebron nor other medical officials had treated an officer for acid wounds. These false allegations made against Jewish activists were part of a government-orchestrated campaign of incitement against the settlers.
In early December, before the launching of Operation Cast Lead, we entered an urgent appeal to the Supreme Court to stop the transfer of money to Gaza. The defense minister had approved the transfer of 100 million shekels to Gaza and we told the court that according to the law forbidding the financing of terrorism, this money transfer was neither legal nor ethical.
In late October we stood up for the residents of Sderot by publicly condemning Attorney General Mazuz's decision to suspend the move to limit the supply of electricity to Gaza. We felt the decision would help the residents of Gaza but ignore the suffering children of Sderot.
You mentioned the plight of settlers in Hebron. What can be done to stop further police violence?
Last August, our organization held a protest in which we sought unfettered access to Kever Rachel in Bethlehem. The demonstration was forcibly halted by the Border Police. During the scuffle that ensued, a correspondent for Israel National News was beaten, detained and questioned by police for filming a policeman hitting a young protestor. The correspondent's camera was smashed as well.
We sent an urgent letter to the chief of police, to the Judea and Samaria District commander, and to the head of the police internal affairs department demanding an immediate investigation. We stated emphatically that the arrest of and violence against a journalist crossed all red lines and represented a danger of descent into dark regimes.
Is there a role for American Jews in the work of the Legal Forum?
We want American Jews to know they can play a vital role in supporting a legal rights organization that is dedicated to crafting legislation to preserve Jewish land ownership in Israel. Those who support us should know that we work within the framework of the Israeli legal and political systems.
We also lobby Knesset lawmakers on a regular basis with the aim of achieving social and political progress, and we've set up legal aid offices for the sole purpose of assisting Israeli citizens of the former Gaza and northern Samaria communities.
