Obama, Tell the Truth About the Armenian Genocide Monday, 08 Mar 2010 11:59 AM By: Pamela Geller
Another stunning rebuke to Barack Obama: Armenian-American groups have for decades sought congressional recognition as genocide of the murder of just under 2 million Armenian Christians by the Islamic Ottoman Empire. [...]
Above all, we must not forget that the Nazis were inspired by the Armenian genocide.
The Turks used primitive gas chambers and developed other murderous templates that were later adopted by the Nazis.
Hitler was inspired by the mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Amin al-Husseini, who was an officer of the Ottoman Empire who participated in the Armenian genocide, and who during World War II met with Hitler and frequently with high Nazi officials.
During the Nuremberg Trials in July 1946, Adolf Eichmanns assistant, Dieter Wisliczeny, testified that mufti was a central figure in the planning of the genocide of the Jews: The Grand Mufti has repeatedly suggested to the Nazi authorities -- including Hitler, von Ribbentrop and Himmler -- the extermination of European Jewry...
"The Mufti was one of the initiators of the systematic extermination of European Jewry and had been a collaborator and adviser of Eichmann and Himmler in the execution of this plan... He was one of Eichmanns best friends and had constantly incited him to accelerate the extermination measures."

Why is the Armenian Genocide commemorated on April 24?
On the night of April 24, 1915, the Turkish government placed under arrest over 200 Armenian community leaders in Constantinople. Hundreds more were apprehended soon after. They were all sent to prison in the interior of Anatolia, where most were summarily executed. The Young Turk regime had long been planning the Armenian Genocide and reports of atrocities being committed against the Armenians in the eastern war zones had been filtering in during the first months of 1915. The Ministry of War had already acted on the government's plan by disarming the Armenian recruits in the Ottoman Army, reducing them to labor battalions and working them under conditions equaling slavery. The incapacitation and methodic reduction of the Armenian male population, as well as the summary arrest and execution of the Armenian leadership marked the earliest stages of the Armenian Genocide. These acts were committed under the cover of a news blackout on account of the war and the government proceeded to implement its plans to liquidate the Armenian population with secrecy. Therefore, the Young Turks regime's true intentions went undetected until the arrests of April 24. As the persons seized that night included the most prominent public figures of the Armenian community in the capital city of the Ottoman Empire, everyone was alerted about the dimensions of the policies being entertained and implemented by the Turkish government. Their death presaged the murder of an ancient civilization. April 24 is, therefore, commemorated as the date of the unfolding of the Armenian Genocide.
...Dadrian has always been unafraid to identify the uniquely Islamic institution of jihad as a critical etiologic factor in the Armenian genocide. Indeed, the most revealing interlude of that April 2nd evening, for me, was his blunt recapitulation of a massacre as depicted in Reverend K. Balakian's eyewitness narrative Hai Koghota (The Armenian Golgotha)the major literary work affecting Dadrian's decision to study the genocide. In a 2003 essay collection, Dadrian recounted the harrowing details of this particular slaughter, its Islamic religious motifs unexpurgated. Six thousand four hundred Armenian children, young girls, and women from Yozgad, were decamped by their Turkish captors at a promontory some distance from the city...
...of 282 Christian churches transformed into mosques; of 21 Protestant preachers and 170 Gregorian (Armenian) priests who were, after enduring unspeakable tortures, murdered on their refusal to accept Islam.
The Armenian genocide: news accounts from the American press, 1915-1922 By Richard Diran Kloian, page 19
Attack them from every side. Whenever you meet them, kill them. Quicken the failing proclamation of the Unity by the fire of your rifles and cannon, and by the blows of your swords and knives. cause the minarets and mountains and wildernesses to resound once more with the cry. "Allah! Allah!" Jihad! Jihad! Oh, Moslems, blow the trumpet everywhere, of people of the Unity. The great God is ordering you to fight with your foes everywhere.
A "Jihad" Appeal to Moslems -mr191507b, JULY 1915 "Kill them: God will punish them in your hand and put them to shame; and ye will overcome them. He will rejoice the hearts of believers, and take away the wrath from the hearts unbelievers." (Text of the Koran.) ...Jihad! Jihad! Oh, Moslems...
British Reports on Ethnic Cleansing in Anatolia, 1919-1922: The ArmenianGreek Section
"Dr. Tavitian reported that the same state existed everywhere, at Everek (Caesarea) boycottage of Christians was being carried on, and the Mufti was preaching in the Mosque ordering his people not to sell to Christian. From Sivas and Samsoun many reports of outrages, cruelty and brigandage had been received, thus confirming the reports of Relief Officer in those districts."

Amin Al-Husseini. Born in Jerusalem under Ottoman rule
Husseini's First Taste of Jihad
Allegiance to Ottoman Empire .
Amin Al Husseini: Ottoman Empire Officer. Amin Al-Husseini swears allegiance to the Ottoman Empire during the Armenian genocide .
He is an officer stationed in Smyrna and participates first-hand in the Armenian genocide. One and a half million Christians are slaughtered under the sword of Islamic Jihad by the Ottoman Army. Allegiance to Ottoman Empire and Islamic world take-over will be echoed by Osama Bin Laden in his post-September 11th declaration
The Father of Islamists, Amin Al Husseini, the man who officialized Islamic hate, declared Holy War on the West and the Jews. Before Amin Al Husseini, there was no hatred between the Jews and the Arabs. Before Al Husseini, there was no Pan-Islamic Jihad against the West and non-Muslims. Bin Ladin and many other terror chiefs are believers in Al Husseini and have dedicated their life to his ideology.
Amin Al-Husseini, was born in Jerusalem under Ottoman rule. Al-Husseini swears allegiance to the Ottoman Empire during the Armenian genocide. He was an officer stationed in Smyrna and participates first-hand in the Armenian genocide. One and a half million Christians are slaughtered under the sword of Islamic Jihad by the Ottoman Army. Allegiance to Ottoman Empire and Islamic world take-over will be echoed by Osama Bin Laden in his post-September 11th declaration.
1917 Amin Al-Husseini returns to Palestine. He brings with him lessons of genocide and the vision of leading a Pan-Islamic empire, where Jews and Christians are not acceptable. 1920/1921 Amin Al-Husseini becomes lead figure in organizing riots against locals. Al-Husseini begins life-long campaign of inciting hate between Jews and Muslims under British Mandate of Palestine. He begins rule of terror over local Muslim leaders, who denounce him as an ignorant thug.
Anguished hope: Holocaust scholars confront the Palestinian-Israeli conflict By Leonard Grob, John K. Roth - 2008 - Page 117
It was perhaps a tragedy for Palestinians and for Jews that the Husseini clan gained hegemony and influence over more moderate Nashashibis and other effendi (highly educated) families. Haj Amin Husseini, given sole religious and secular auhtority and vast unsupervised funds by the British in the early 1920s, held an ideological hatred of Jews and formented mass violence against them from 1920, culminating in thee Great Revolt of 1936-39, deadly terror against his Palestinian opponents, and affirmation of Nazi genocide of Jews...
But I suggest that a key additional factor in the grand mufti's experience may well have been the Armenian genocide . While training in the Ottoman Military Academy in Constantinople from late 1914 to mid-1915, Haj Amin must have been aware of the deportations and mass murders of Christian Armenians both in Constantinople and within the army itself...
He is a man who desires the destruction of Israel, for goodness sake. Justice for Armenians is not on his plate.
Heck, a lot of folks here will agree that he may even desire the destruction of the United States.
His policies are certainly destructive.
I pray every day that God would remove the evil that afflicts our country. I hope He does it in a way that demonstrates His displeasure with Obama.
Earlier the Brits had devised "concentration camps" where they placed Boor women, children and elderly people ~ I gather the idea was to hold them hostage until the men gave up.
What happened is just this side of Hades ~ as had happened earlier when the Brits put the Acadian settlers on board prison barges tens of thousands of innocent people died in the camps ~ of disease, of mistreatment, of whatever it is that happens to people kept in miserable conditions with bad food and no modern medicine or toilet facilities.
The Brits invented and practiced genocide against Acadians and Boors long before the Nazis started doing the same.
The Ottomans did something equally evil ~ they "transported" millions of men, women and children on foot through desolate countryside over inadequate roads and paths without food, water, normal civilized comforts and so forth.
When that happens people die in great numbers and all military commanders know it.
In brief, to bring you all up to date on the "Theory and Practice of Hell" you can kill vast numbers of innocent people by taking them out of their homes and setting them in miserable camps. You can kill vast numbers of innocent people by putting them on the road on foot for hundreds of miles.
There are other methods. Those two are apparently the least costly.
Some of my Scottish ancestors were put on board prison barges, transported to America, and dumped into Smugglers Creek just off the Potomac River ~ they were naked and still in chains at the end of the trip. Most of their fellows had died on the way.
That was circa 1702.
The Brits breought a lot of evil and suffering into the world.
At the same time, they gave us our political system.
But the Armenian genocide - which ALSO included attackes on Greeks and Chaldean and Assyrian Christians was despicable and the Turks, if they were honest, would disavow the actions of the pre-Atturk Muslims - but, being Muslims, in their heart of hearts, approved.
It seems that only Germany has apologized for the actions of former governments in genocide, the Turks - and the Japanese - have yet to step up to the plate and do so - as well as the Russians for the Ukrainian genocide.
"Heck, a lot of folks here will agree that he may even desire the destruction of the United States."
For those who don't believe it my question is, what would he do differently if he DID?
It's like none of us will apologize for the crimes commited by Obama and his running dog lackeys.
Sholzenytsen argued that the Russian people were the first captives taken by the Communists for example.
The Turks were just one of a number of different ethnic groups who were part of the Ottoman Empire. Yet, you don't see the Iraqis, Iranians, Afghanis, Pakistanis, Uzbeks, Kazakhs, Israelis, Greeks, Serbians, Croatians, Montenegrans, Albanians, Egyptians, Tunisians, Algerians, Moroccans and Spaniards issuing apologies for crimes commited by the Islamic Caliphate, or "Ottoman Empire" as it later became known.
Maybe they should all apologize eh!
The Turks ran the Ottoman Empire.
They were Muslims.
They tried to exterminate the Armenians, as well as the Greeks, and Chaldean Christians and Assyrian Christians in Anatolia - nobody else. And they did it over religion and "ethnic cleansing" giving us the first "modern" holocaust. Ukrainains were next.
Those other people were oppressed by the Ottoman Turks, but no attempt was made to exterminate them.
There is no analogy between them and the Armenians/ Chaldean Christians/ Assyrian Christians and Greeks in Anatolia.
You became a "Turk" by learning the language, becoming a Moslem, and paying whatever taxes were due. That lead to an influx of Arabs, Berbers, Copts, Greeks, Slavs and Persians ~ over a very long period of time.
The original Celtic population occupying Anatolia at the time of the coming of the Seljuk Turks didn't get exterminated ~ they were assimilated. From that point on, as the Empire expanded into territory formerly ruled by Greeks, Arabs, Persians and Egyptians, you had a spread of the language, culture and ethnic affiliations.
Even Armenians turned into good little Turks over the centuries of nominally Turkish rule.
If we are to hold the present day population of the core Turkish speaking area solely responsible for the misdeeds of the ancient regime, we do a grave injustice to them. We must hold their close DNA relatives equally guilty and demand apologies from them ~ even from the Greeks!
Mentions the Grand Mufti — one of the never-prosecuted war criminals of WWII and actually some years before that.
That's your quote.
You become a Turk by becoming a Muslim.
So much for Turkey's phony vaunted claim of being a sectarian state.
Like all Islamic backwaters, citizenship and equality as a Human Being is denied to non-Muslims.
That is why the Ottomans tried to exterminate the Christian Muslims and Christian Assyrians, and Christian Greeks, etc.
Because they were Christians and not Muslims they were Non-Turks and Non-Persons.
And this is a pattern replicated in every area where the indigenous population was originally non-Islamic and Muslims intruded. The persecution of non-Muslims becomes so severe as the percentage of Muslims increases, that more and more non-Muslims are forced to become Muslims in order to be treated as human beings.
That happened to all the indigenous people of Turkey.
And that will happen in the west and in the U.S. if we continue to extend to this virulent political, social, and economic cult the protection we extend to other pure religions.
Before the Seljuks were "converted" you'd probably had have to have had become a pagan of some kind though.
You did know the Arabs were Moslems long before the Turks, and even Greek speaking Byzantine military units converted en mass to Islam (from both Mithrist and Christian traditions).
If you want to blame someone for why the Turks are what they are I'd point first to Byzantium.
I can only presume the earlier arrivals from Greece, etc. had been eaten for dinner by the fierce Celtic warriors who controlled the heartland.
Be interesting to do some DNA studies to see which Turks are what ~ right? Odds are good that the Celts are still in there.
"I was referring to the cultural requirements ~ not the legal requirements. "
In Islamic societies - and Turkey IS an Islamic society - culture, legalities, and religion are all enmeshed and not distinguished.
"Before the Seljuks were "converted" you'd probably had have to have had become a pagan of some kind though."
Unlike most monotheistic religions, pagans are generally pretty tolerant of other beliefs and more than willing to incorporate other people's God's into their own pantheon or practises if they feel they have useful powers.
"You did know the Arabs were Moslems long before the Turks,"
"and even Greek speaking Byzantine military units converted en mass to Islam (from both Mithrist and Christian traditions)."
Perhaps, but under what circumstances? Losing their heads?
"If you want to blame someone for why the Turks are what they are I'd point first to Byzantium."
Hardly. The Byzantines put up a truly heroic rear-guard action against Islam, blocking its expansion into Europe before the rape of Constantinople. If there is any blame to be assigned to Byzantium, it was thier intolerance of other Christian religious streams which differed from the Orthodox, and led some non-Orthodox Christian popualtions to intially welcome Islamic overlords. In time, they learned that their initial pleasure was misplaced.
Later on they were driven from India and returned to Yakutia, now part of Russia. By 560 AD they were invading Korea and Japan.
There is a large Turkish element in both Korean and Japanese languages.
The Seljuks were just another bunch of Turks from the steppes and plains of Western Asia, not much different than the Yakuts. At some point they managed to encounter the dominant population of Anatolia and became a serious threat to the Middle East.
They were then "converted to Islam" by Moslem missionaries. I do believe that tamed them down a bit.
In fact, as they moved West they managed to disrupt the tourist trade Egypt maintained for Moslem and Christian visitors to Jerusalem. One thing led to another and next thing you know the French sent in an army This period is called The Crusades (just a minor historical point). The important thing was the Seljuks arrived in the Middle East anyway and started screwing up stuff right off the bat and were not beyond stepping on Moslem toes.
The Byzantine Armies the earlier Arab Moslems had encountered (in the 700s) converted because the Arabs, crafty devils that they are, PAID them ~ something Byzantium had neglected to do for over a century!
Well, I agree with most of what you are saying.
Some central Asian Turks actually formed a large contingent of Genghis Khan's armies and the armies of his successors.

Wikimedia Is Clear To Sue the NSA Over Its Use of Warrantless Surveillance Tools (engadget.com) 58
The Wikimedia Foundation has the right to sue the National Security Agency over its use of warrantless surveillance tools, a federal appeals court ruled. "A district judge shot down Wikimedia's case in 2015, saying the group hadn't proved the NSA was actually illegally spying on its communications," reports Engadget. "In this case, proof was a tall order, considering information about the targeted surveillance system, Upstream, remains classified." From the report: The appeals court today ruled Wikimedia presented sufficient evidence that the NSA was in fact monitoring its communications, even if inadvertently. The Upstream system regularly tracks the physical backbone of the internet -- the cables and routers that actually transmit our emoji. With the help of telecom providers, the NSA then intercepts specific messages that contain "selectors," email addresses or other contact information for international targets under U.S. surveillance. "To put it simply, Wikimedia has plausibly alleged that its communications travel all of the roads that a communication can take, and that the NSA seizes all of the communications along at least one of those roads," the appeals court writes. "Thus, at least at this stage of the litigation, Wikimedia has standing to sue for a violation of the Fourth Amendment. And, because Wikimedia has self-censored its speech and sometimes forgone electronic communications in response to Upstream surveillance, it also has standing to sue for a violation of the First Amendment."

The question of sex after surgery is a common one, yet it is one that many patients hesitate to ask. The answer is this: it depends on you and the type of surgery you are having. Some patients may able to have sex the day after surgery, for others a wait of weeks or months may be advisable.

General Guidelines for Sex After Surgery

After relatively simple surgeries, you should be able to have sex when you are able to return to work and full physical activity. Most surgeons provide this time frame for patients, they just don't specifically mention sex. "You should be able to return to your normal activity in ___ days/weeks" is an excellent guideline for resuming your sex life.

What to Expect During Recovery

For an outpatient surgery, it may be safe to have sex within a few days of surgery. For extensive inpatient surgery, it could be four to six weeks or longer, depending on the type of surgery. The more invasive and serious the surgery, the longer it will be before sex is advisable.

One suggestion is to let pain be your guide. You may feel like you have recovered from surgery, but pain is present when you attempt to have intercourse. This is your body's way of saying you are not ready, that you need to heal more before having sex. However, in some cases, pain can be avoided with some minor changes. For example, a patient who has had breast surgery may be particularly sensitive to bouncing type movements. For her, the woman on top position may cause too much movement and pain, but alternative positions may be pain free.

Types of Surgery That May Require a Longer Wait Before Sex

After some surgeries, such as open heart surgery, you may feel fully recovered but you are at risk when you exert yourself too much. If your doctor cautions you against strenuous activity, such as running, brisk aerobic activity or shoveling snow, you should consider that a caution regarding having sex.

Surgeries that affect the reproductive organs, such as inguinal hernia repairs, hysterectomies, prostate surgeries or any surgery directly involving the penis or vagina may require additional healing time prior to engaging in sex. Childbirth can also delay the return to sexual intercourse, with or without a caesarian section. In these cases, it is best to consult your surgeon and ask specifically "when is it safe to have sexual intercourse?"

The Type of Sex Matters

Vigorous, athletic sex is not the ideal way to ease back into your sex life after surgery. If you are a man who had an abdominal surgery, you may want to try a position that keeps pressure off of your abdomen. If you are had colon rectal surgery, you will want to wait before resuming anal sex until your surgeon says it is safe. If you are a woman who just had a hip replacement, the pressure of being on the bottom in missionary position could be painful.

Generally speaking, start slowly, think ahead to attempt to minimize any pain or discomfort, and enjoy yourself. If you experience pain, stop and change positions or try something different. Remember that pain is a sign that you are doing too much too soon, and should be considered a warning sign.

Questions For You and Your Partner Before Having Sex

Do I feel like having sex? Do I have the energy at this time?

Is anal sex safe at this time?

Are there certain positions that may be more comfortable than others?

Do I need to avoid putting pressure on a certain area, such as an incision line?

Will we need to take any special measures? Some surgeries, such as vaginal surgeries, may cause dryness and make a lubricant necessary. Other surgeries, such as prostate surgery, may make an erection difficult to obtain and/or maintain, and may require medication or an additional procedure in order to maintain an erection.

Is there any reason to avoid pregnancy? Does my surgery, medications I am currently taking or my condition make contraception important?

Are there other sexual activities we could try such as kissing, petting or oral sex before progressing to intercourse?

Newly renovated, modern, welcoming, and equipped with all the amenities you need to make your stay a comfortable one. A large backyard with plenty of space for dinner parties or lounging with a good book.

Muy linda la casa , calida y el barrio genial , excelwnte ubicacion y seguro !volvería a alojarme nuevamente muchas gracias stacey por todo!!
We stayed 5 nights and everything was excellent. Stacy made sure we got on ok, everything was to our liking and provided wine and snacks. The bungalow is clean and neat. Ample supply of cooking implements and utensils. Will definatley stay there again when we return.
This is a return visit for us. Last year we were here for Thanksgiving and this year for Christmas. We have 2 sons who live in LA and this little gem is just blocks from one of them. And this year my son's in-laws rented the bungalow next door. This place is perfect in every way..decor, size, amenities, location, noise level (as in NONE). Parking on the street is always available. The kitchen is stocked like a normal kitchen. This now feels like our home away from home.
My husband & I traveled from Virginia to visit our first grandchild. Our son & his family live right around the corner and it was so convenient for us to walk for a visit. When we arrived Stacey had a nice welcome basket for us & a very informative book w/house instructions & information about the area, shopping, restaurants, etc. The accommodations were clean, spacious and there is a full kitchen with everything you would need. We did a lot of walking and were able to see a lot of the area. The next time we visit we plan to contact Stacey, the location of this house made our visit very enjoyable. Bill & Susan Bowles, Midlothian, VA
I booked this place for my parents; they were coming to LA for a week from the East Coast, they're on the older side, and I've struggled to find a place near us in Silverlake that suits their needs. This bungalow is very cozy, very clean and stylish, and quite convenient. Only downsides: 1) The bedroom is quite small, smaller than you can see in the pictures. The queen bed takes up nearly all the space. 2) It's a bit of a walk from coffee shops (10 min or so, with several hills), which isn't a huge deal unless you're not driving (my parents weren't). Anyway, the place is lovely and Stacey was very accommodating. Highly recommend!
What an amazing experience our family had at Stacey's Silver Lake home. The house is perched on a small hill giving you a nice view with tons of light yet privacy. The decor is modern yet warm with a comfortable bed and all the kitchen amenities one would need for a stay. Stacey was extremely welcoming, paid great attention to detail and very responsive to our needs. The location was perfect allowing us to walk to several restaurants and explore the city with ease. We would highly recommend her home for anyone visiting L.A. Thank you, Stacey, for hosting us!

Firms and households across the UK should be braced for interest rate rises despite global uncertainty, Bank of England Governor Mark Carney warned today.
Addressing the TUC conference in Liverpool against the backdrop of the Ukraine crisis and a potential Scottish vote for independence, the Governor said: "There is as always uncertainty about the future.
"But uncertainty does not mean stasis. You can expect interest rates to begin to increase."
Carney stressed that the exact path of rate rises was not set, and that "policy will of course be adjusted if geopolitical events have a material impact on the outlook".
But he also stressed that the "point at which interest rates… begin to normalise is getting closer" with a "more balanced" decision for the Bank's monetary policy committee as the economy recovers.
Two of the nine-member MPC called for a quarter-point rise in August, the first vote for dearer money among rate-setters for three years. Interest rates have been held at their present record low of 0.5% since March 2009, although the UK has now passed its pre-recession peak and unemployment is falling rapidly.
The Canadian — addressing the theme of this week's TUC conference that "Britain deserves a pay rise" — stressed that Britain's workers had "borne many of the consequences" of the "calamity" of the recession as wages trail far behind inflation.
Threadneedle Street is placing heavy emphasis on the weak wage growth as a signal that low rates are in little danger of fuelling inflation.
According to the Bank's forecasts, anaemic wage growth will only begin to outstrip the cost of living again during the middle of 2015, heralding almost a year more of real-terms pay cuts for the nation's workforce.
But Carney underlined that pay rises could only be paid for through improving the country's productivity to fund "sustainable" increases.
He said: "Monetary policy cannot do it alone. Others — including trade unions, government and businesses — will determine the potential of this economy. You will determine the size of Britain's pay rise.
"Skill levels need to be raised continually. That is of course first and foremost about education. But crucially it also means access to lifelong learning, both on and off the job."
But the Governor's speech fell short of the hopes of some union leaders in the audience. Paul Kenny, General Secretary of the GMB, said "We want Mark Carney to say that he will hold interest rates low until pay makes up some of the ground lost in the six years from the start of the downturn.Reuse content

Abandoned dog was living in a knothole
Ever have one of those days when it seems like humanity isn't treating you with the proper respect — the kind that makes you just want to crawl into a hole and hide?
Apparently that was the case with Boo, a Chihuahua mix who was spotted a couple of weeks ago in a rural area in Sonoma County, California, living inside a hole in a large tree.
A call to Sonoma County Animal Control led Shirley Zindler and other officers to the spot.
It was an area, they say, where people commonly abandon dogs.
It took a few hours, but the small dog was finally coaxed out of the knothole.
The officers named her Boo — after the To Kill A Mockingbird character, Boo Radley, who left gifts for children in an oak tree's knothole.
Boo Dogley, as she is now known, was dirty and underweight when she was found. Officers estimated she was about one year old and had been living in the tree at least a week.
Possibly, she picked the hiding place because she was about to deliver a litter of pups. Unfortunately, none survived.
Zindler says Boo is skittish around people and was likely mistreated.
"She thinks the world's out to get her," Zindler, who is also the author of The Secret Life of Dog Catchers, told The Huffington Post.
Zindler is caring for Boo now, while seeking a "very, very patient person" to give her a forever home.
Boo's recovery is being documented on Zindler's Facebook page,The Secret Life of Dog Catchers.
"She'll stay with me until the right home is found," said Zindler, noting it's not the first time she has taken an unwanted dog home. She has four others.
"I take them home and fix them up so they can find a forever home."

Port Authority cop helps save choking dog
A Port Authority police officer may have saved a choking dog's life when he invited the dog's owners into his patrol car for a ride to a veterinary clinic.
Julius, a 10-year-old Maltese, was chewing on a treat when he began to choke inside of his Jersey City home on Easter Sunday.
His owners, Michael and Lindsay Torres, after unsuccessfully trying to dislodge the treat, borrowed their building concierge's car to rush to Manhattan in hopes of finding a vet's office that might be open on the holiday.
But traffic on the New Jersey side of the Holland Tunnel was barely moving, and Julius' tongue was turning blue. As their car crept toward the toll booth they told Port Authority police officer Thomas Feuker about their plight.
"I really need your help. He's choking. We need to go to an animal hospital," Lindsay Torres says she told the officer.
Feuker tried to clear the dog's airway. Unable to do that, he let the couple and their dog into his car and drove them seven miles to an emergency veterinary clinic.
"It definitely made it faster. He knew the easiest way to go and they were actually blocking off some roads (on the route)," she told the New York Daily News. A motorcycle cop from Rutherford, N.J., also joined the emergency motorcade.
A vet was able to clear the treat from the dog's esophagus, and Julius is back home.
"He's doing great. He's eating, he's drinking, he's really looking good," Lindsay Torres said Monday.
She said she was grateful for the officer's assistance.
"Without him, I don't know if Julius would be here."

Baltimore cop who slit dog's throat was being heroic, his attorneys say
Lawyers for a Baltimore police officer who slit the throat of a sharpei on a city street in June tried to put a new spin on his actions in court last week, entering a not guilty plea and suggesting Officer Jeffrey Bolger was heroically trying to save the unborn child of the pregnant woman the dog had bitten.
Fortunately, the judge didn't immediately buy it, and declined a request from defense lawyers to dismiss the animal cruelty charges filed against Bolger.
The pregnant woman, meanwhile, is calling bullshit.
"Don't try and make yourself a hero when you made a grave mistake," she said in a a radio interview last week, after Bolger's initial court appearance. "Try and say I'm sorry."
In court on Thursday, lawyers for the 22-year veteran of the police force said Bolger was "legally authorized" to kill the dog, named Nala, and that he was acting to protect the unborn child of a woman the dog had bitten.
He entered a not guilty plea to two counts of animal mutilation, one count of animal cruelty and one count of misconduct in office. Both Bolger, 49, and a second officer, who held Nala while Bolger slit her throat, have been suspended.
His attorney's reasoning went like this: Had the dog escaped from police, the woman would have had to undergo a series of rabies shots, putting her baby at risk. Due to that, and the dangers the attorney said the dog posed to citizens nearby, Bolger made the decision to "euthanize" Nala in the safest manner possible.
"Bolger considered using his firearm, but he determined that there was too much danger of a ricochet bullet injuring bystanders," his lawyers said. "Instead, he used his knife in a fashion intended to cause the dog the least amount of pain and place the public in the least amount of danger."
What's underplayed in attorney's brief is that, when that decision was made, the dog had already been subdued with a catch pole.
The attorneys said Bolger and other officers struggled with the dog for more than an hour, the Baltimore Sun reported.
And they said Bolger didn't say "I'm going to gut this (expletive) thing," as some witnesses reported. Instead, they submit, he said he was going to have to "cut" the dog because of the lack of other available options.
Among those who found the attorney's statements ludicrous was Sandy Fleischer, the pregnant woman who was trying to help the dog and keep police from harming her. She spoke out after the incident — and she did so again after Bolger's hearing.
"To say that you were helping me and trying to save my life? I was there to help the dog," Sandy Fleischer said. "I can't believe they are using me for the defense."
In an interview Thursday on WBAL Radio's C4 Show, Fleischer said she was upset that the fact she was pregnant — something she confided only to the paramedic treating her — had made its way to police and into the courtroom.
Fleischer was nipped by the dog as she tried to get a look at her collar, so she could get in touch with the dog's owner.
When she first recounted the incident on the radio show, months ago, Fleischer said the officers who first arrived on the scene used sticks to try and corral the dog, which only served to intensify the situation. She said officers calling the dog a pit bull.
She said police had her ushered to the ambulance "because they didn't want me seeing the dog being killed."
A second officer, Thomas Schmidt, 53, is accused of holding the dog down while Bolger cut her throat and is scheduled to appear in court later this month.
The judge, while declining to immediately grant the request for a dismissal requested by Bolger's attorneys, didn't rule out further arguments and consideration of the motion.
Bolger's trial date is scheduled for Nov. 7.

Idaho officer violated policy when he shot dog through van window, review says
Two investigations have concluded that an Idaho police officer used unnecessary force when he shot a dog who lunged at him as he snuck up to a van's partially open window.
Coeur d'Alene Police Chief Lee White said an internal review found that the shooting of Arfee by officer Dave Kelly — the bullet went through the window glass —was unjustified.
A separate Use of Deadly Force Review Board unanimously concluded that Kelley's actions "were in violation of the department policies reviewed."
Officer Kelly remains on duty, though, and city officials aren't saying what disciplinary action, if any, he might face, according to the Associated Press
"An argument can be made that Officer Kelley's decision to shoot was reasonable when the dog lunged through the partially open window mere inches away from his face and throat," White said. "However, given the totality of the circumstances, the use-of-force reviews found Officer Kelley's use of force to be out of policy in this incident."
The department initially reported that an officer shot and killed a "vicious pit bull" that lunged at him from inside a van on July 9 — but later corrected the breed. Arfee was a lab mix. Kelly was not identified by name by the department until last week.
The dog's owner, Craig Jones, had left Arfee parked in the shade with the windows partly open while he went to a coffee shop.
City Attorney Mike Gridley declined to comment on whether any disciplinary action would be taken against Kelley, who has 17 years of law enforcement experience, the last seven with the Coeur d'Alene Police Department.
Officer Kelley, in an incident report filed immediately after the incident, said the van was being checked due previous reports in the area of a person in a similar van trying to entice children. He said he drew his weapon as he approached the driver's side door of the van.
"I was at the driver's side door/window, when suddenly I saw a black dog's head and neck lunge through the open window," Kelley wrote. "The dog was aggressively barking and growling, and its mouth was within inches of my face. I had the split second thought that this dog is going to bite me, and bite me immediately."
The use-of-force investigation said that, even if Arfee's head was outside the window, Kelley's response — firing a bullet, that went through the window glass — was not reasonable.
"Officer Kelley, a seasoned officer of over 15 years of experience, was in an open parking lot with an open business, in the middle of the day, with citizens around and (another) officer … on the other side of the van. This was a case where Officer Kelley did not have anything behind him to prevent him from gaining distance," police Lt. Robert Turner wrote in the report.
Police Chief White said the shooting has shaken the community's confidence in the police department, but added, "… The relationship between our community and our department will ultimately be strengthened as a direct result of how we respond to the situation and how we improve our agency to prevent similar situations from occurring."

Mayor apologizes for Arfee's shooting
The mayor of Coeur d'Alene publicly apologized for a police officer's fatal shooting of a dog in a parked van last week, and promised a full investigation into the dog's death.
"We as a city again want to offer our complete apology to Mr. Jones," Mayor Steve Widmyer said at last night's City Council meeting.
Widmyer said the city will "take full responsibility" for the death of the 2-year-old black Lab mix, named Arfee, if the investigation determines mistakes were made.
Arfee was alone in a parked van when a police officer — as yet unnamed — approached it from the rear during an investigation. The officer says the dog lunged at him when he neared the partially opened window. He fired one shot — through the window glass — hitting Arfee in the chest and killing him.
Police Chief Ron Clark also spoke at the start of last night's council meeting, calling the shooting "a regrettable tragedy." He said he has spoken to the dog's owner, Craig Jones, a former Coeur d'Alene resident now living in Colorado who was visiting the Idaho city during the 4th of July weekend.
"I told him how sorry I was about this incident," the chief said. "And we had a good conversation. We discussed the entire situation and also about how it was unintended."
Jones left Arfee in the van while he went out to breakfast and returned to find a bullet hole through the window, according to the Spokesman-Review.
In a news release after the shooting, police said they were responding to a report of a suspicious van, possibly containing someone watching young children. When an officer approached the van on the driver's side, "a vicious Pit Bull dog lunged out the open driver's side window toward the Officer's face," the release said.
Police removed the dog's body and left before Jones returned to this van. Police later said the dog was a Lab mix, not a pit bull.
A witness to the shooting also spoke at last night's council meeting.
"Everything that I witnessed appeared to be a complete cover-up," Jessi Johnson told the council. "Everybody watched and nobody did the right thing."
Police Chief Clark said the department's investigation will be reviewed by the city's legal department, the administration and an outside authority yet to be identified. The results will he shared with the public, he said.
"I'm going to do everything I can to avoid anything like this happening in the future," he added.
The officer involved will be reassigned from patrol to office duty until the investigation and reviews are completed, Clark said. The city has withheld the officer's name and the officer's report on the incident, according to the Spokesman-Review.

"I'm going to gut this thing," Baltimore cop allegedly said before slitting dog's throat
A Baltimore City police officer has been charged with slitting the throat of a dog that had been running loose — even though the dog had already been restrained.
"We have no words to describe this. To say that we are appalled at this allegation is an understatement," Baltimore police Deputy Commissioner Jerry Rodriguez said.
Officer Jeffrey Bolger has been charged with felony animal cruelty, police officials announced Wednesday afternoon.
Police were called Saturday morning to Grundy Street in southeast Baltimore for a report of a stray dog that had bitten someone trying to rescue it.
Police had secured the dog using a catch pole, but after that Bolger, an officer assigned to the emergency services division, used a knife to cut the dog's throat, police said.
"Unfortunately, at some point after the dog was contained, one of our officers used a knife and cut the dog's throat. This is outrageous and unacceptable breach of our protocol," Baltimore police Deputy Commissioner Dean Palmere said.
WJZ in Baltimore reported that charging documents quote Bolger as saying, "I'm going to gut this thing."
The dog later died.
Police officials said they knew of no reason for the officer to use such force on a dog that was already under control.
The dog had run off from her home nearby. She was a 7-year-old shar-pei named Nala, whose owner was searching for her and had posted her pictures on a community Facebook page.
"She was just the sweetest dog and would never hurt anyone," Sarah Gossard told 11 News. "She was just scared that day and through all of those events — scared and lost, thirsty, hungry — yes I'm very sure that she bit someone, but the actions after that were not OK," the dog's owner,
Bolger been suspended without pay.
"I don't want him to have his job, I don't want him to be able to go out on calls and react like that to a person, to a dog, to anything. That's not OK, that's not OK," Gossard said.
An investigation into the incident will also look at other officers who, though aware of what happened, had not reported it,.
Police commanders said they "caught wind of it Monday" — two days after Nala was killed.

Officer saves dog from submerged pickup
A "dog-loving" police officer dived into a Massachusetts pond to save a pooch trapped in the cab of a submerged pick-up truck.
Police in Carver received a call Saturday after the truck went into the murky pond.
By the time Officer David Harriman arrived, one of two dogs had escaped and was standing on shore with the owner. But the other hadn't surfaced, according to Boston.com
"Instead of waiting for the dive team, I decided to go in and try and get the dog," Harriman explained.
"Seconds mean a big difference for animals, and people for that matter, under water," he said.
The owner of the dogs, Debra Titus, 59, of Plymouth, stopped the vehicle next to a pond that provides water to the local fire department to argue with a man about dogs, South Coast Today reported.
"She thought she threw it in park but in fact threw it in reverse," Sgt. Raymond Orr said. "It backed up and went into the pond."
According to a police department press release, Harriman "removed his gun belt and dove into the murky water … He then managed to open the door and enter the vehicle and retrieve the dog. The dog was returned to its owner in good health but a little frightened."
A photo of Harriman standing on the roof of the submerged Toyota Tacoma, with the tiny dog in his arms, is racking up the likes on Facebook.
Harriman, who described himself as a dog lover, has an 8-month old bulldog named Jaxx.

Profession: Visual merchandiser at H&M.
Favorite film: Almost Famous. I like the time, the era, the style, the story and the music in that film.
2013 jam: Right now I love Charlie XCX's song "Nuclear Seasons."
Style inspirations/icons: I love San Francisco; it's one of my favorite cities, style-wise. I'm from Texas, so I love Austin style, too. Some people are Chloe Sevigny, Charlie XCX, Marina from Marina and the Diamonds, and the model Chloe Norgaard.
Favorite color: Red.
Favorite accessory: My daisy rosary necklace thingy.
Style mantra: It depends on what I am doing that day, but I try to stay true to my style. I wear a lot of hippie, bohemian things, '90s stuff, and I think about my inspirational people while I'm getting dressed, too. I try to plan ahead and pick out my clothes the night before as well.
Shops at: Mostly thrift stores -- Unique Thrift store, Buffalo Exchange. Goldmine Vintage in Boulder is good. Free People and Anthropology are nice.
Here Williams sports a sharp manicure, a mixture of bracelets and ten rings. "People can put their own unique spin on things here and it's not really looked down at," she says of Denver's style.
Williams purchased her favorite accessory at a thrift store back in Texas.
"I'd like to see people get dressed everyday. I'd like to see the thought process in their choices, and a little more effort in their clothes," Williams says of street style -- fashion with everyday use. Here she uses a pair of brown boots that match her shirt.
Style analysis: As a newcomer to Denver, Williams is bringing her own flair to the local street-style scene. Her brown boots and bleach-tone shirt work complement her neon orange hair. The daisy necklace represents home, and is a key item for Williams. Her circular shades are very Penny Lane from Almost Famous , her favorite film. Williams remains inspired by her personal vision.
Always have your own vision and fashion thought process, Denver.

She/they could have been killed. Didn't have her means of defense with her and she worried about firing warning shots. All the while, she and her child were confronted with multiple known armed men.Hunley came into the living room, saw what was happening, returned to her bedroom for a .357-caliber handgun and fired a warning shot into the ceiling.
Another good example of how quickly these things can blow sideways. Solution? Keep it on you. Armed, always.
But, serious Kudos! to her for surviving and protecting her child. Nothing is so resolute as a perturbed and threatened momma bear.

Iraqi support of Baloch rebels
|This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (April 2010) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Balochistan is divided between three nations Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan. The relationship between the Baloch and Arab nationalist leaders began at the start of 20th century but became stronger during the 1950s–1980s. The support came from the Ba'ath Party of Iraq, due to its conflict with Iran.
In the 1950s, Iraq provided support for the Baloch against Tehran. Rebel leader Dad Shah was very famous in Iraq's media. He was killed in 1957 but Iraqi support continued. Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran, was unable to stop the civil war in Iranian Balochistan immediately after the death of Dad Shah. Iranian forces successfully put down the rebellion at the start of the 1960s. Many Baloch went underground and reorganized. In 1968, with the help of Iraq and other Arab nationalist leaders, the Baluch once again revolted. The revolt ended in 1975 when the Shah persuaded one of the main Baluch nationalists and tribal chiefs to negotiate. In the 1970s, ties with Iraq became stronger by supporting Baluch separatist groups on both sides of border. From 1973 to 1977 Iraq aided the Baloch revolt in Pakistan, the Balochistan conflict. In February 1973, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto dismissed the Balochistan provincial government and arrested three main Baloch nationalist leaders because of arms discovered in Iraqi embassy. Pakistan's government also announced an Iraqi/Soviet plan to break up Pakistan and Iran. With the help of the Shah, Pakistan crushed the insurgence in Balochistan in 1977 and exiled Baloch nationalist leaders who had been in prison since 1973; some migrated to Afghanistan, Gulf states and the United Kingdom. In the 1980 Iran–Iraq War, Iraq once again supported the Baluch to keep Iranian forces busy on their eastern front aiding Iraq on the western front. In June 1991, Saddam Hussein removed one of his commanders General Wafiq Samarrai because of his ties with Tehran. In 1994, General Samarrai revealed that Iraqi Intelligence Service relations were very well established on both sides of the border. During the Iran–Iraq War, Iraqi intelligence had an office in Dubai run by Baloch.

McKnight, who stayed in Los Angeles the past two days to aid USC's compliance office in answering any questions surrounding his use of an SUV, was cleared to practice and rejoined his teammates in San Francisco.
While the junior tailback is still awaiting official word on his eligibility for the Emerald Bowl, the fact that he has been cleared to practice is a very encouraging sign.
"Joe did everything he needed to do compliance-wise in L.A., so it was the right thing to get him up here right away," Carroll said. "Compliance hasn't made a final ruling, but this is a most favorable sign."
McKnight flew up to San Francisco Wednesday night and will take part in USC's practice on Thursday.
"We'll just play it out and see what happens from here," Carroll said. "In the meantime, it's great to have Joe back with us."
McKnight is the Trojans' leading rusher with 1,014 yards and 8 touchdowns on 164 carries in 2009.
SCPlaybook will have more on McKnight following USC's practice on Thursday.

Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Dungeon
Footsteps followed Lorda as he ran through the darkness of the hallway, winding anti-clockwise, down steep stairwells that were invisible in the poor light.
More than once, he found himself coming to the beginning of a staircase and experiencing the sickly feeling of loss of footing. But he ran on. He would not be found.
The echoes of followers were all that filled the surroundings now, and as Lorda ran, using the stairs as his guide, he occasionally was illuminated by the dull and blurred torches that seemed to be the only sources of light in the entire tower. He had passed no windows since entering, and assumed that the one he had used to access had been the sole method of allowing natural light into the structure.
After being shrouded in darkness for so long, Lorda's eyes stung as he ran through a doorway into the most well-lit of all the areas he had yet encountered. It looked almost regal; torches now lined the walls, and a single red rug led from the mighty gate on his right, up the hallway, ascending a small staircase and leading into a dark room.
This was obviously the key point of entrance, and now that he knew where it was, he could use it to escape when the time was right. Along with Jonrah.
Hardly slowing, he jogged through the hallway to a doorway opposite, similar to the one he had just entered from. He had obviously descended several floors, and if his theory was correct, as he continued anti-clockwise around the tower, he would eventually arrive at the basement, which he had overheard to be the dungeons. That would most certainly be where Jonrah was being held.
Continuing in the dark, it was not long before the stairs ended their seemingly infinite descent, and all that lay in Lorda's path was a wooden, rotting door.
Engulfed in fire ... the wooden house shakes ... debris falls from the roof ... a burning beam falls from overhead ... a woman screams ... a thump as the wood connects with the ground ... the crushing of bones ... thump ... thump ... thump ... the beam falls again and again.
Jonrah slowly opened his eyes, expecting to be home, in his bed, Karlin sleeping by his side, Jodar only downstairs, playing innocently.
This had been his only rest since his journey had began, and as fitful and horror-ridden as it had been, he felt refreshed. Jonrah sighed, however, as he took in his surroundings.
Thump ... thump ... thump.
The sound from his dream continued.
Murdul was pressed against the bars, but instead of simply looking from side to side, he was looking intently to the left - the source of the repetitive sound that had plagued Jonrah's sleep.
As a red-cladden guard walked by the cell, he stopped by Murdul and pulled back his fist threateningly. Murdul reclined, letting the guard pass the cell, and then he went back to his gawking position.
'What's that sound?' asked Jonrah, still covered by the soft blanket of slumber.
Looking quickly to Jonrah, Murdul replied, 'The door.' He looked back to the door and watched intently. Jonrah joined him.
Jonrah could smell Murdul's breath from next to him. Being locked up for several weeks, personal hygiene was obviously thrown to the wind.
Jonrah let his eyes adjust to the slight light that illuminated the hallway, taking in his surroundings for the first time since being here. The dark, poorly built walls surrounding him, obviously crafted swiftly. The bland hallway, with a simple stool at the far right, obviously for the guard on duty.
The guard approached the door as the loud thumps increased in volume and frequency. Drawing his sword, he was equally as puzzled as the prisoners who watched.
Although weak in appearance, the door that stood between Lorda and Jonrah was putting up a damn good fight.
No doubt the followers were closing the gap, and despite the low population of the tower, it was definite that there was a guard waiting to cut Lorda through once he got the door down.
He would have to be careful; not just barge in, especially since he was now weaponless.
Putting his all into it, Lorda kicked hard against the door, which was shaking violently, and occasionally creating a vertical crack in the centre, but it was still holding up.
As the sound of the footsteps increased, Lorda knew that time was running out. Kicking again and again, however, Lorda was unable to make a difference. It would take some force to get through here. Kick... Thump. Kick... Thump. He was making slow progress, but progress nonetheless.
As another crack appeared in the door, Lorda heard the footsteps halt.
Turning around, Lorda looked into the eyes of his follower. A young man, only around twenty, wielding a sword which looked to be of no use to him. His stance alone was enough to tell Lorda that this would be over before it began, even without a weapon to match his attacker's.
As the man in red charged towards him, screaming at the top of his lungs, Lorda steadied himself, ready to accept his challenge.
Lorda watched the blade rise above the man's head, bending in half, keeping his legs straight but his back horizontal, letting the attacker continue to run into him, still with the sword poised for the first cut.
The follower lost his footing as he hit Lorda's back, and it was a simple matter of correcting his posture for Lorda to send the man flying head over heels and straight into the door, which proceeded to bend and break, sending the upside-down attacker through, landing awkwardly on his neck. Alive, but not getting up in a hurry.
The dungeons awaited.

Montes first attracted widespread attention through broadcasts she made in 1938 when she was still very young. Later, she became a recording artist and performed extensively at concerts throughout Mexico. She was recognized as an exceptionally gifted interpreter of the compositions of Agustín Lara. In 1993 a 25-minute documentary film, Amparo Montes, directed by Maricarmen de Lara and written by Leopoldo Best and Alfonso Morales, traced aspects of her career. In 2001, a tribute concert was held at Mexico City's museum at which Pepe Jara Y José Amado performed. Shortly thereafter, Montes was taken ill with pneumonia and hospitalized.

3 Myths of Concussions in youth, young adults
LearningRx Chicago-Naperville clears up myths about concussions and how concussions can be critical for young adults and children.
Concussions of adults are serious, but the concussion of a high school cheerleader who falls from the top of a pyramid, or the junior high hockey player who gets slammed against the rink, can be dire.
Their concussions can result in life-altering damage, said Mia Tischer, executive director of LearningRx Chicago-Naperville, . In fact, because the brain doesn't fully mature until at least the mid-20s, any damage during its development can have a significant impact on cognition and day-to-day functioning.
"Luckily the brain is pliable and the earlier that an assessment is done, the quicker that training can begin to get back to day-to-day functioning,"
Here are three myths about concussions in children and young adults:
MYTH #1: The two most dangerous high school sports in terms of concussion rates are football and hockey.
Although high school football accounts for around 250,000 concussions each year[1] (http://#_ftn1), the second most dangerous sport isn't hockey; it's girls' soccer. Other school sports known for their concussion rates include boys' wrestling, girls' basketball, boys' ice hockey, and boys' lacrosse[2] (http://#_ftn2). In addition, cheerleading has the highest rate of catastrophic injury.[3] (http://#_ftn3)
MYTH #2: The best predictor of post-injury symptom severity and neurocognitive deficits is loss of consciousness. On-the-field amnesia is actually the most predictive symptom, and loss of consciousness occurs in fewer than 10 percent of concussions. In terms of general concussion symptoms, watch for: headache, confusion, lightheadedness or dizziness, blurred vision or tired eyes, memory loss, ringing in the ears, bad taste in mouth, convulsions or seizures, numbness or poor coordination in limbs, fatigue or lethargy, agitation or restlessness, changes in sleep patterns, mood swings and behavior changes, and trouble with concentration, attention, or thinking.
MYTH #3: MRIs, CTs and EEGs are the most useful tools in identifying the effects of concussion.
MRIs, CTs, and EEGs are not always useful at identifying the effects of a concussion. "Concussions are usually metabolic, not structural injuries," explains Tanya Mitchell, co-author of "Unlock the Einstein Inside; Applying New Brain Science to Wake Up the Smart in Your Child" (www.unlocktheeinsteininside.com)
Did you know?:
• According to one study of the 1.6 to 3.8 million sport-related concussions that occur in the United States each year, around 250,000 are due to high-school football alone.
• Between 4 and 20 percent of players will sustain a concussion in a single season.
• The second most dangerous sport (after football) is girls' soccer.
• Other sports with high concussion rates include boys' wrestling, girls' basketball, boys' ice hockey and boys' lacrosse.
