But at least he doesn't burst into tears irrationally.
Nyeh. Again, just kinda okay. Though compared to some pasos on this show, it could have been worse.
However if Chad makes the final and any of the remaining three don't...well, I'd have to be happy Nicole got cut but I'd still say take away football fans' voting privileges.
I've liked Erin as a person all through this season but I'm not crazy about her dancing tonight. Maks has recycled the paso costume for the second time and the moves looked all over the place to me.
And I know it's bad, but I really like Nicole and Derek's tango.
I can't wait to see what Evan is wearing for his Paso. I can't get his Espana Cani costume out of my head for some reason, so it'll be nice to see what he's actually got on tonight.
The Parent Company of This Network would like to remind you that "Ohana means nobody gets left behind", buy Lilo and Stitch merchandise and videos.
Ack!! I accidentally gave a vote to Chad when I was trying to hover to see what his next dance was going to be.
quick, go register another account.
That was...profoundly lacking in actual cha cha content.
oh, whiny nicole with her pussy cat dance background.
Sexy cha cha from Nicole. A bit overdone, but sensational.
Did not like that dance at all.
I think Evan has some kind of vampire or phantom theme for his Paso
Was I the only one one who was underwhelmed by Nicole and Derek?
Why is Nicole dressed like Prince?
If Evan wasn't on the show, I'd vote for Nicole, but I just can't. That could have been a pussycat doll routine. Len will give her a 9 and give Evan 10s to keep them in the top two.
Evan shirtless
Love Prince, love that song, didn't love that dance.
It had no. Cha cha. Content. It took more than 45 seconds to get to basic locks (and her knees were too soft, but the music was slow enough I suppose they could say it's American Ch Cha.) She did the same swivels as in all the other Latin dances she's done. It was a good Pussycat show, but it was not a cha cha.
Well, that's my thing every week, more footwork, more content, but the judges don't insist on it.
I thought she looked tentative and the choreography was a little on the trashy side for this show. Was the spank at the end really necessary?
If Derek has a neck injury, it's from preening like a peacock for the camera.
I called it. Now, Evan will get all 10s unless they totally screw it up then he and Nicole will be even and Chad and Erin will be even so the viewers will decide who's out.
Ah, but I already gave in and registered my last address last week. The only ones I have left are my work addresses! I gave Erin one more vote than I was planning to in order to try and counteract my error, so I hope that Evan's not in danger.
How old is Chad? I thought he was really, really young.
I'm underwhelmed by Nicole. She has some dance experience? That's putting it mildly.
Chad's kids are too cute for words! Especially the girls in those little dresses.
Chad's Samba actually good, except for the solo. Better vote for Evan big time, this guy scares me.
85 may not be the best dancer, but he's got killer abs.
Again, I say Chad has improved. To be honest, I don't see a ton of separation between Chad and Erin. *shrug*
Bruno will never take his clothes again
Chad deserves to win just for that.

Your Child's Checkup: 9 Months
What to Expect During This Visit
Your doctor and/or nurse will probably:
1. Check your baby's weight, length, and head circumference and plot the measurements on the growth charts.
2. Administer a screening (test) that helps with the early identification of developmental delays.
3. Ask questions, address concerns, and offer advice about how your baby is:
Eating. Your baby should be eating a variety of baby foods, in addition to regular feedings of breast milk or formula. Your baby can probably drink from a cup and may try to self-feed with his or her fingers.
Peeing and pooping. You may notice a change in the color and consistency your baby's poopy diapers as you introduce new foods. Tell your doctor if your baby has diarrhea or has stools that are hard, dry, or difficult to pass.
Sleeping. The average amount of daily sleep is about 14 hours. Your baby is probably still taking two naps a day — one in the morning and another sometime after lunch — but every baby is different. Waking at night is common at this age.
Developing (milestones). By 9 months, it's common for many babies to:
- say "mama" and "dada" (not specific to parents)
- understand "no"
- sit without support
- pull to stand
- walk along furniture ("cruising")
- start to use thumb and forefinger to grasp objects (pincer grasp)
- wave bye-bye
- enjoy playing peek-a-boo
There's a wide range of normal, and children develop at different rates. Talk to your doctor if you're concerned about your child's development.
4. Perform a physical exam with your baby undressed while you are present. This will include an eye exam, listening to your baby's heart and feeling pulses, checking hips, and paying attention to your baby's movements.
5. Update immunizations. Immunizations can protect babies from serious childhood illnesses, so it's important that your child receive them on time. Immunization schedules can vary from office to office, so talk to your doctor about what to expect
6. Order a blood test. Your doctor may check for lead exposure or anemia.
Looking Ahead
Here are some things to keep in mind until your next routine visit at 12 months:
- If you are breastfeeding, continue for 12 months or for as long as is mutually beneficial. Breastfed babies weaned before 12 months should be given iron-fortified formula. Wait until 12 months to switch from formula to cow's milk.
- If you give juice, limit it to 4 ounces (120 ml) a day. Always give juice in a cup.
- Introduce combinations of foods previously given as single foods.
- If there's a history of food allergies in your family, talk to your doctor before introducing new foods.
- Pay attention to signs your baby is hungry or full.
- Pull the highchair up to the table during meals. Your baby will start to show interest in table foods. Give your baby a variety of tastes and textures, including foods that are pureed, mashed, and in soft lumps.
- Give your child soft finger foods. Avoid choking hazards, including:
- raw vegetables, hard fruits, chunks of meat, or hard cheese
- whole grapes or cherry tomatoes (OK to peel and cut in quarters)
- raisins, popcorn, pretzels, or nuts
- hot dogs or kiddie sausages (OK to peel and cut in very small pieces)
Routine Care & Safety
- If your baby wakes up at night and doesn't settle back down, offer reassurance that you're there, but try not to pick up, play with, or feed your baby.
- Separation anxiety often starts around 9 months. Keep good-byes short but loving. Your baby may be upset at first, but will calm down soon after you're gone.
- Continue to keep your baby in a rear-facing car seat in the back seat until age 2, or whenever your child reaches the weight or height limit set by the car-seat manufacturer.
- Avoid sun exposure by keeping your baby covered and in the shade when possible. You may use sunscreen (SPF 30) if shade and clothing don't offer enough protection.
- Brush your child's teeth without toothpaste twice a day. Schedule a dentist visit soon after the first tooth appears or by 1 year of age.
- Be vigilant about childproofing:
- Install safety gates and tie up drapes, blinds, and cords.
- Keep locked up/out of reach: choking hazards; medicines; toxic substances; items that are hot, sharp, or breakable.
- Keep emergency numbers, including poison control, near the phone.
- To prevent drowning, close bathroom doors, keep toilet seats down, and always supervise around water (including baths).
- TV viewing (or other screen time, including computers) can interfere with the brain development of young children. Therefore, TV is not recommended for those under 2 years old.
- Limit your child's exposure to secondhand smoke, which increases the risk of heart and lung disease.
- Protect your child from gun injuries by not keeping a gun in the home. If you do have a gun, keep it unloaded and locked away. Ammunition should be locked up separately. Make sure kids cannot access the keys.

This is a blog to chronicle this portion of the life of Staff Sgt. Jason Ross, my son, as he mends, after an I.E.D. explosion, on March 7, 2011, while serving his country in Afghanistan.
Monday, March 11, 2013
We're almost out of food, so tonight we had Taco Bell, though I still have some Oatmeal and Cream of Wheat for breakfasts, but only a couple. Tomorrow is going to be spent packing up a bunch of the stuff, though not all of it. I need to do a load of laundry or two, and then that will be the last of that, I think. If we are able to we might be able to get out to go see our friend Shauna do a dance performance, but right now we simply don't know.
All of the packed boxes were shipped out today, and it was a bit more pricey than I thought it would be. I guess I should have just sent them parcel post and let them get there when they did, but we also wanted to be sure we had the stuff, since most of it is being used, or is gifts for the girls. If there isn't a post tomorrow, or maybe the next day, assume it is because we're traveling, and I wasn't able to get it done, though I think I should be able to get something in... Stay tuned for the continuing excitement. Thank you, all for your continued prayers and all the support.

Our mission: To protect and enhance the quality of life for domestic, farm and wild animals in B.C.
Guinea pigs make wonderful companions. They are vocal, enjoy being around people and rarely bite. They will even make "purring" sounds when they are being petted and feeling content on your lap. While most guinea pigs are friendly, some are afraid of humans and will have to be trained over time with patience and care to trust you.
5-7 years
Guinea pigs are herbivores, which means they eat grasses, vegetables and fruits. Give them a small amount of a variety of fruits and vegetables that are high in vitamin C (for example, peppers, parsley, spinach, kiwi and papaya) every day along with guinea pig pellets from the pet supply store. Pellets must be specific to guinea pigs because they include vitamin C, which is important for guinea pig health. You must also include an unlimited supply of Timothy hay as part of their daily diet. To keep their constantly growing teeth worn down, guinea pigs need to have apple or aspen branches to chew on.
Guinea pigs should always have fresh water available to them through a sipper bottle. Change the water daily and clean the bottle with soap and water once a week.
Guinea pigs need a living area that is at least 65 cm by 65 cm per guinea pig with 30 cm high walls. Guinea pigs like company so two guinea pigs can live together as long as they are the same sex and have a large enough living space. Never bring a new adult guinea pig into the cage unless they have grown up together. Adult guinea pigs will fight. It is best to introduce a six-week-old guinea pig to adult guinea pigs.
Your guinea pigs' cage can be open on top and can be made out of wood, metal or plastic. The floor bottom should be flat, not mesh. Cover the flooring of the "cage" with aspen wood shavings (cedar and pine can cause health problems) or "CareFresh" (bedding made from recycled paper). Scoop soiled shavings daily and clean the complete cage at least once a week with soap and water. Add small "hiding" boxes and cardboard or plastic tubes in the enclosure - guinea pigs love to run and play. Learn how to build a large, inexpensive guinea pig enclosure.
Guinea pigs need plenty of exercise. They love to run along walls and hide under furniture. In a safe enclosed area provide daily exercise out of your guinea pigs' enclosure.
Long-haired guinea pigs need to have their fur brushed regularly. They also need to have their nails trimmed every four to six weeks. Clipping should be done by an adult or you can have the nails trimmed at your vet clinic or by a dog groomer. Learn how to how to clip guinea pig nails.
Guinea pigs do groom themselves but you can periodically give your guinea pig a bath if he is smelly or greasy. Use mild shampoo from a pet supply store and bathe your guinea pig in a bathroom sink filled half-way with warm water. Make sure you keep your guinea pig's face dry and rinse out all of the shampoo by pouring water from a cup all over his body until there is no shampoo left in his fur. Dry him off with a towel. Do not use a blow dryer because the heat can burn his skin.
Call or take your guinea pig to the vet if you notice he has diarrhea, difficulty breathing, hair loss, increased thirst, or if he is not moving around much, not eating or doing anything else you think is unusual. Injuries due to falls or other accidents should be treated by a veterinarian right away.
When you first get your guinea pig give him a few weeks to get used to you before you start holding him and playing with him. He may scurry and hide to avoid being caught. Start by talking to him and then feeding him from your hand. Try offering a spinach leaf or piece of apple. Gently stroking his head as he eats will show you can be trusted. Over a few days your guinea pig will anticipate and enjoy the contact.
Always pick up your guinea pig with two hands: one hand under his hind end and the other around his chest. Don't let your guinea pig wander on tabletops or anywhere he can fall off. When holding your guinea pig, be gentle - don't squeeze him or grab him. Guinea pigs can be scared of humans until they get used to being held. Hold your guinea pig while sitting down with a towel on your lap. Gently petting may result in you hearing a "purr" of contentment!

"on 02 Dec 1658 John Hill, of Guilford, sued Thomas Clark for slander. The plaintiff declared that the defendant hath slanderously reported that he John Hill laid violent hands upon him and shook him and offered to strike him with his fork and another while with his fists, which the said Hill denied, and so looks upon himself as wronged, and desires satisfaction for the slander. Mr Clark gave the truth in evidence, which he fully sustained, so the court awarded that the Defendant was not guilty of slandering Hill and awarded the Defendant his costs."
His parents are not known.
- Frances ? in England, who died May 1673. [4] Her parents are not known.
- Katharine Post probably the widow of Alexander Chalker at her age of 16 on 23 Sep 1673 in prob Guilford, New Haven Co, Connecticut.

- Sarah died before 1680 m. Henry Allen. (daughter Frances Allen b 1676)
- Elizabeth died before 1680
John Hill came from Northamptonshire, in England, as early as 1654, and settled upon the north side {n.b. or south side: see below} of the green, on the place now [in 1877] occupied by E. C. Bishop and Tabor Smith. [6] It is stated that he was by trade a carpenter, and came early to Guilford, but not in the first company; that he was at Branford in 1646, but came with his family soon after to Guilford, the thought being that the Hill family were "North Britons."
He was a freeman in Guilford before 1657. Suits against him for slander are discussed in 'Steiner's History of Guilford' page 95: On the 14th of May, 1655. John Hill and Goodwife Hill testified in court at Guilford.
John Hill was one of the lesser planters, being known as Goodman Hill. His home lot was on the south side of the Green, and contained about an acre and three-fourths. In addition to this, he had other lands.
Of his English ancestry and date of birth nothing is known, but there is a family tradition of Welsh origin.
Will was proved June 17, 1689, and names his wife Katherine, his sons John ,and James, his daughter Tapping, and the children of his deceased daughters Sarah and Elizabeth, of whom Frances Allen was to receive a double portion. On the second Monday of June, 1695, the following record was made (New Haven County Court Records, I., 232): "The legacies yet due out of ye estate of John Hill of Guilford deceased is 9 lb 20s which is to be distributed to 13 grandchildren of the deceased the eldest of them viz. Frances Allen to have I lb 5s 5d as a double portion, and each of the rest to have 12s 20d as a single portion to every of them."
For More Information
Those interested in this family might like to know that Dr. Alvan Talcott's manuscript genealogies of Guilford families contain quite an extended account of the descendants of John (1) of Guilford. The original is in the library of the New Haven Colony Historical Society at New Haven, Conn., and a copy is filed in the office of the town clerk of Guilford. Papers of the New Haven Colony Historical Society (1865)||New Haven Museum Manuscript Collections
History of Guilford, New Haven County, CT
In May of 1639, a band of puritans, led by the Reverend Henry Whitfield, left England to seek religious freedom in the New World. They set sail for Quinnipiac (now called New Haven) and arrived there later that Summer.
After negotiating with the local Native Americans, who were represented by their squaw sachem (female chief) Shaumpishuh, the group purchased land halfway between New Haven and Saybrook. There they established the plantation of Menuncatuck, which would later be known as Guilford.
Like most 17th century New England towns, Guilford was organized around a common or green. The first houses were small huts with thatched roofs, wooden walls, and dirt floors. Guilford, unlike other villages, had no protective palisade fence surrounding the community; instead they build four large stone houses for the leaders of the plantation. These homes were strategically located and used for shelter during times of danger. Life in Guilford was extremely primitive and resembled a medieval village for several generations.
Later in the 17th century, Guilford became part of the New Haven Colony and then Connecticut Colony. By the 18th century, the town had become a thriving coastal community with agriculture and the sea supporting the economy.
re: Ebenezer b: ABT 1644 in Dorchester, Massachusetts [5] died 1696 in Bridgewater, Litchfield, CT.
He shows as the son of John Hill (1606-1664) and Frances Tilder (1608-1676). However John Hill of Guilford died in 1683 and John Hill of Dorchester is known to be the son of John Hill (1571-1635) and Frances Gaud (1575-1682), who seem well documented. Therefore I am removing any links or associations.

Network if you can get it…
Theresa's team, Issue 1444
Over recent years Timothy has shuttled between working for May at the Home Office and being a director of the New Schools Network (NSN). He was her special adviser when she was home secretary, moved to the NSN in July 2015 and then took a sabbatical to help run May's leadership bid last summer before moving into Number 10 with her as co-chief of staff.
£1.2m DfE grant
The NSN calls itself "an independent charity" which helps those starting a free school. But its latest accounts, published in January, show that 89 percent of the NSN's £1.2m income comes from a grant from the Department for Education (DfE). Accounts available on the Charity Commission website show it has received £5.1m from the DfE since 2012, totalling 65 percent of income. Far from being "independent", the NSN, which promotes the government's free schools policy, largely depends on a government grant.
Timothy doesn't speak much in public, but as a columnist for ConservativeHome he attacked Labour in 2015 for its commitment to "more spending", "more taxes" and "renationalisation" – all while employed by a "charity" largely reliant on government money. The Network's accounts show top directors' salaries range between £70,000 and £90,000.
Timothy is not the only Tory to have been on the NSN payroll. Ex-teacher Mike Crowhurst, who became Theresa May's education adviser in January, has worked for NSN since 2011, most recently as director of education. With Timothy and Crowhurst gone, the NSN has kept up its Tory links: Conservative propagandist Toby Young took up his new post as one of its two directors in January. Young says he is in favour of the academy and free school programme because it "reduces the involvement of politicians and bureaucrats in taxpayer-funded education". But his position running a taxpayer-funded "charity" makes him look like a government-funded, politically influential bureaucrat.
'Big Society'
The NSN has much in common with other "Big Society" ideas like the Big Society Network or National Citizen Service. The initiative was supposed to see charities supplementing the state – but it turns out to mean politically-connected charities being funded by the state. The NSN does admit it is in part a political organisation involved in "campaigning to win public and political support for free schools".
In its latest accounts the NSN says the DfE grant "will end in 2017 and will be subject to a re-tendering process". However, it is "confident" it will "submit a strong application". With Young, Timothy and Crowhurst as cheerleaders, no doubt the confidence is well-placed.
The Eye asked the NSN about its funding and Tory links. Young said he was appointed after a "rigorous, open recruitment process", and that the NSN only won its grant "after a robust tendering process, with the final decision being made by senior civil servants, not politicians". He added: "If you look at NSN's accounts going back to its formation in 2009, the Department for Education's contribution to our budget has been less than 50 percent". So that's all right, then.
More top stories in the latest issue:
With no new money on offer and a pisspoor record over the last seven years, the Tories' promise of 'a new generation of social housing' is hard to swallow.
The government's no-show in Brussels to discuss the fate of 3m Europeans living in the UK won't help future negotiations over Brits who live in the EU.
Tory housing minister Gavin Barwell has a tiny majority in Croydon – but did he really have to accept endorsement from a once knife-wielding armed robber?
How the Lib Dem party hierarchy has again stopped local activists fielding a candidate against loathed Commons speaker John Bercow.
More on the Eye's old friend Kevin Horkin, Tory candidate in Hyndburn. As his leaflet says: 'Kevin Horkin – Hyndburn Needs Better.' How very true.
Tory MPs have been flocking to Saudi Arabia courtesy of the oppressive but generous regime – despite its bloody intervention in Yemen.

Who here has regular massages?
What type of massages do you have?
How much do they cost?
Who here has regular massages?
What type of massages do you have?
How much do they cost?
I used to see a physio every week when i was training x2 every day. Think it was like £10 for back shoulders and neck. And £15 for full body.
Alternatively, get yourself a girlfriend who knows how! You save so much money lol.
This is not a gif. It is an actual video of Fedor doing infinate press ups.
Are physios and osteopaths the best people to give massages? What about just garden variety masseurs/massueses?
I have to say that although I'd prefer to receive a massage from a woman, I have found that their hands are usually not strong enough to get stuck into the really knotted areas.
My chiropractor used to do sports massage for me, was savage in my calves but felt so much looser the next day.
Think it used to cost £20. Worth finding one that does or knows your sport if you can, help them focus on the right areas and give the right type of massage/intensity
I see an osteo every 4-6 months for routine maintenance, and have a deep tissue massage every 4-6 weeks to help with any general muscle soreness or stiffness.
You get what you pay for.
In our game (bjj/mma/general man-cuddling), drilling, sparring & competing take their toll. Stretching will assist your longevity, but you will need professional help to keep you off the sidelines & on the mat.
Paying a non-specialist physio/chiro a couple of shekels will be nothing more than a placebo for you. A waste of your time and money. Invest in yourself & use the best. A good massage from a sports masseur/masseuse hurts like hell, & you feel the benefits extremely quickly - particularly if done regularly.
For london/south-east try www.olympianmassage.co.uk
Best advice is to be recommend to someone.
In my experience a woman with good technique is more than capable of getting into problem areas.
It is definitely worth a while shopping around though to make sure you get what you need.
(a customer of mine was away and suffered from a stiff back, so he looked in the local directory and found a guy who sounded right. Things started off fine, but then the guy asked:"Do you want me to keep my clothes on?" :0

Tropical cyclone history – part II: Paleotempestology still in its infancy
There is a correlation of the proxies to major Atlantic hurricane activity over the period 1946-1995, however, the large activity increase already starts more than 5 years earlier in the proxies than in the hurricane record. The authors explain this time lag by the El Niño in the early 1990ies, however, since the influence of El Niño partly works over wind shear, this influence should be already included in the proxies.
Neither the reconstruction nor the calibration period covers the strong increase in major hurricane activity in the 1990ies, but it is obvious from observed wind shear, and recognized by the authors, that this increase cannot be explained by wind shear and is probably due to the increase in SSTs as several studies have pointed out (e.g. Hoyos et al. 2006). Since the training period of their reconstruction model covers a phase, where the main variation of hurricane activity seems to be mostly through wind-shear (1946-1990), but not the following phase, where SST changes are the most important factor, the model probably does not represent the influence of SSTs very well.
Now we come back to the question of the reliability of the hurricane record. One of the big problems of the Nyberg et al. reconstruction is, that it is far off the hurricane record before 1944 (Figure 3 in Nyberg et al). For the period 1850-1944, the reconstruction shows more than 3 (about 3.3) major hurricanes per year on average, while the hurricane record has less than 1.5 per year. Nyberg et al (2007) explain this discrepancy by the unreliability of the hurricane record. This explanation seems too simple. There are, as discussed above, uncertainties in the hurricane record. These are, however, not infinitely large. I have tried to estimate an upper error bar for major hurricane activity. Since there are no estimations of underreporting biases of major hurricanes, I assumed a constant proportion of major hurricanes to total tropical storm number. As Holland and Webster (2007) have shown, this proportion has some multidecadal variation, but these variations are not very large on the 50 year time scale, and there seems to be no significant long-term trend. I used the highest reporting bias estimations of tropical storms by Landsea (2004, 2007) – which are probably too high, as discussed in 'Tropical cyclone history – Part I', i.e. 1851-1885 plus 3 tropical storms per year on average; 1885-1965 plus 2; 2003-2006 minus 1; see Figure 2, black line).
Figure 2. Major hurricanes compared to the total number of tropical storms. The red line shows the 5-year moving average of the ratio between major hurricanes and the total number of tropical storms calculated from the best track data of the NOAA National Hurricane Center (HURDAT). The black line shows the ratio after correction of the observational bias proposed by Landsea et al. The green line shows the ratio after correction for a possible observational bias of major hurricanes before 1910.
Nyberg et al. claim that Landsea suggests 0-6 additional storms per year before 1885 and 0-4 per year before 1900 and thus the 'upper limit' correction should be 6 and 4 storms, respectively. However, the range given by Landsea represents the annual variation of the bias, not an uncertainty range of the average (I very much doubt that Landsea thinks a zero correction on average to be possible).
The average ratio from 1910 to 1965, i.e. before the satellite area, is the same as after 1965 (21%). Thus there is no evidence to assume a significant underestimation of major hurricanes. However, for the period before 1910 a correction of plus 1 major hurricane per year is needed to attain a similar mean ratio (21% major hurricanes) as in the satellite period (Fig. 2, green line). The adjusted record has a mean of just 2 major hurricanes per year between 1851 and 1940. Thus even if taking into account a high observation bias, the Nyberg et al (2007) reconstruction overestimates major hurricane frequency before 1940 by at least 50%. Observation uncertainties therefore do not explain the mismatch of reconstruction and observation as supposed by the authors.
Even if using an extreme correction of plus 5 TCs before 1900, the corrected record does not overlap the error bars given by Nyberg et al (2007). Or, looking the other way round, to get major hurricane frequency as shown by the reconstruction, the observational bias prior to 1900 would have to be in the order of 10 tropical storms per year on average, which is not very likely.

The Holocaust Centre of New Zealand was picked by Culture Trip as one of their New Zealand Local Favourites 2017/one of Wellington's must-visit museums. Here is a link to their review.
Paul Seideman, a survivor of 5 different camps, has established a competition for Year 10 and Year 11-13 students at New Zealand secondary schools that teach the Holocaust. As a Jewish Czech youth, Paul suffered grievously but managed to survive for years in the Nazi German concentration and labour camps during World War II. After liberation he emigrated to Australia and then New Zealand. He now lives in a Wellington retirement home. To commemorate the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau by the Soviet Army, on 27 January 1945, Paul has funded this annual competition.
Entries are now called for the Paul Seideman 10th Anniversary Competition. Details are available on requirements and applications are available here.

I have been coming to annual Holocaust Memorial services since I was appointed Race Relations Commissioner.
A year ago I shared a taxi van up here with Vera Egermayer and several other women who are here today.
Our driver was a rude man. Impatient and grumpy.
And yet at the end of our trip, instead of moaning about him Vera turned to me and said:
This is clearly an unhappy man. I feel sorry for him and his sadness.
I'm sharing this story with you all today because Vera's empathy for a stranger is the kind of thing the world needs more of today.

At Temple Sinai, Wellington, Sunday 23 April (27 Nisan) 2017
by Rick Sahar
After getting back from Israel, I crossed paths with an acquaintance who asked, had I been away, to which I answered, yes, I'd been to Israel with a group of NZ High School Teachers at a 17-day Seminar to study at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem the lessons learnt from the Holocaust, to which he looked me straight in the eye, and startled me by saying… "It never happened".
A couple of days later, I was at a fund-raising concert, and introduced to a couple attending. When someone else there asked me what I've been up to, I mentioned recently returning from Israel, you know the rest; but I was surprised by what was said by one of the couple, "now the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians exactly what the Nazis did during WW2 to the Jews".
Oh, and then there was someone else, who after I mentioned The Yad Vashem Seminar informed me, "it wasn't just the Jews' Holocaust; there were a lot of the Litvaks also killed" and when challenged about his revisionist view, told me that I'm the one "out of touch"…
Media release
26 April, 2017
New Zealand's Holocaust Centre strongly supports the concept of free speech, but works to make young people question what they read online and be aware of the dangers of false news, the Centre said on the occasion of its tenth anniversary.
Holocaust deniers and falsifiers have no barriers to publishing false news through the Internet and other digital media.
"We aim to teach young people to go back to the source material that we can provide through survivor testimonies and links with databases, such as the one collected from the concentration and death camps by the International Red Cross. The 30 million records housed at Bad Arolsen in Germany, and now available online, are indisputable evidence recorded by the Nazi perpetrators themselves," the Centre said.
Read about it here.

There's a new Spider-Man movie out (no, I won't link to it — if you haven't already been slimed by the promos, you probably don't live close enough to a theatre anyway). And like seemingly every work of fiction since the Bible (no comments, please), the bad guy just has to be someone with a disability. In the current case, the real trouble begins when the character attempts to do something about his missing arm. So the message is … leave half-well enough alone? Stay tuned for the accessible technology remakes: wheelchairs become Transformers that swallow their riders whole; Chucky as an AAC device that whispers and kills; JAWS terrorizes web surfers.

Worst circus ever! Do not waste your money on this!!!!!!
Fantastic outing and a real highlight for our visiting interstate family: 8 of us aged four to 54. The ...
We saw the show last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. We laughed so hard at the clowns and the amazing acts of the talented troop! The man who fits his entire body into a bottle was incredible! We loved every second of the show.
First of all, if you want to purchase this, do not buy the VIP tickets. Buy the cheapest one. There is no point at all, there is only like 6 rows of seat and sitting at VIP is a huge waste of money. Sitting at the front is not comfortable at all, since we have to lift our head up to watch (just like being at the front in cinema). You can see clearly at the very back, trust me. Second of all, the seats are cheap plastic portable chair on top of grass. So, dont expect it to look like a stage at all. Lastly, the performance is boring. The clown act is cliche and the people who are supposed to accrobatic stuffs look like bunch of amateurs. The things they are doing are amazing if you saw one of your friends doing that. We clapped our hands just because we have to, not because we are amazed by the show. The man who can fit on a box, is the only amazing stuff about the performance. I watched a circus at caufield couple of years ago. I paid $35 for mid row seats (same price with pointcook latino VIP) and I was amazed by the show. They're highly entertaining, very skilfull and so much fun to watch. It's even held in big proper stage with proper seats. I dont know whether the caufield price is too cheap or this latino show is too expensive. For me, to call this thing circus is an overstatement. In conclusion, don't expect anything from this show. If you want to watch, grab the last row. They're half the price + you dont have to lift your head to watch.

Mountain Lion/Panthers in East Alabama
Posted in the Ellijay Forum

#1 Mar 10, 2011
A gentleman who lives in Marshall County, AL which is just over the line out west I-20 caught a photo last night on his hunting camera he had set out about 1/4 mile from his house to watch for deer activity. Last night, he caught the distinct photograph of a mountain lion/panther. I saw the photo and there is no mistaking. It is not a bobcat or dog or anything else but a panther. I knew that some which Florida had release had gone up into south Alabama but I thought they had rounded all those up.
Also, a friend who pastors a church over near Albertville in AL also builds houses and he saw one cross the 431.
Have any been sited here in the mountains? I know the wildlife folks in AL claim there are none in Alabama, which there is proof now there is, but I'm wondering if there are some here too.
Has anyone heard of anyone seeing any?

I though all these stories that old timers told about "painters" were a bunch of bull. That is until about 4 years ago. I was standing outside my home in Ellijay when I got that hair stand up on the back of your neck feeling. I turned to find a mountain lion, panther, whatever you want to call it in the woods about 25 yards away. No mistaking it for a bobcat. While the DNR does not believe my story, there was no mistaking what I saw. Scared the crap out of me!

I have a home at carters lake and I was on my front porch smoking a cigarette one night when a very,very large cat,no bobcat,it stood tall had a big long tail walked right along the side of my porch.I was paralized with fear as it walked slowly up to the road and into the woods.Being from Fla I have seen Fla panthers and this is exactly what it looked like.The next night there was a fawn laying at the bottom of the porch steps that had been completely gutted and not a drop of blood on it.Being afraid to dispose of it in the dark we left it there till morning.By morning it was completly gone!When I told neighbors and locals they said wildlife commissioner would tell me that I was wrong that they do not exist in gilmer county.All I know is I know what I saw and it was large cat,panther,mountain lion or whatever!!

While sitting behind my house in Mt.meigs Alabama looking out over my neighbors pond I heard what I thought was a small deer. When I turned to see what it was I couldn't believe what I saw. A small black cat came creeping through the woods. This cat was so black it was purple looking. HAD to be a panther. I know house cats and this wasn't one for sure. Defined muscle and long bodied liked I have never seen. This cat was young and I hope momma isn't around.

November 6, or Election Night, I was sitting outside late in the freezing cold wrapped in a quilt with a *gun to my head.
In the not too far distance, extremely not too far distance, I listened for about 10 minutes to unhuman-type screams.
I just sat there listening, knowing what I was hearing was a cat or cats. Not regular cats either.
So this is my contribution to the Panther stories. It or they had to be the Panther. Normally I would have been terrified, but you know, the election thingy. Overroad all.
*Not really, but felt like it.

Does this photo invoke visions of big tall hats and ice cold lemonade for anyone else??? If it doesn't you're probably too young to remember Hot Dog on a Stick at the mall.
I have been eyeing this homemade corn dog recipe that I tore out of Food Network magazine for quite some time. It was a great lunch for a lazy Sunday. I used my ancient FryDaddy and it worked perfectly except that it was a little too small for frying bun length dogs………
Oops. So from here on out I cut the hot dogs in half and fried them without the stick and added the stick later.
- hot dogs
- sticks (skewers)
- oil
- 1/2 c. flour
- 1/2 c. cornmeal
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp dry mustard
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 c milk
- 1 egg
Mix flour and cornmeal. Add baking powder, sugar, dry mustard and salt. I had to add extra salt because my first corn dog came out really bland so test it after your first one.
Whisk in milk and egg.
Dredge in flour. I actually messed this part up and didn't dredge. The batter had a hard time sticking to the dog. We had some pretty cool shaped corn dogs though.
Dip into batter.
Fry until golden brown.
Stick a stick in it and enjoy!

85 Scrambler build
Hey dudes. I thought I would share the progress on the scrambler I am building. Well, I started out with an 85 scrambler that ran really well and all of the gauges, etc worked.
Here it is Pre-tear down.
I started loosening all of the body mount bolts (and they were all completely rusted through). This took some doing, but once I had these out, we were able to start on the front clip. We removed the fenders, the grill, radiator (which was rotten so we bought a new one), undid all of the electrical that was still fastened to the body, unbolted the steering shaft, unbolted the clutch linkage, and basically anything that hooked into the front clip.
We ended up with this.
We then unhooked the gas lined from the rear filler, diconnected the brake brackets from the body, took out the shifters, disconnected the speedo cable, etc. had some friends come over and we lifted the body off. (note: if you do not leave the top or doors on, due to the length of the scrambler, the area in between the bulkhead and the dash is very weak and can fold in).
the body:
The frame with my 5 yr old neighbor "helping out"
We then began to patch up the bottom of the body. The body mount plates were all rusted out, so we welded in new 1/8" plate on the frame and the body. There was also a small hole in the floor of the drivers side.
We then began to run new brake and fuel lines on the frame. We are switching from manual brakes to power brakes. I bought a power brake booster off of a YJ for this.
The frame is almost done, the body is done.
More pictures to come soon. I have a set of 1.5" rubicon express YJ springs that we are installing. I also have some Dana 44's with ARBs and 4.56 gears that are currently having spring perches welded on the top over at ARC spring. We will be installing all of this within the next week or so.

I always cringe when I hear about someone hacking into a Scrambler. But, it looks like you are doing it nicely in a non-hacking sort of way.
Fellow CJ-8 owner here....even though its really just a tub and roof on a frame n the garage being used as parts storage....

Shawn, its got the stock 4.2L for now with the dana 300 transfer case.
Bill, my AIM is jeephazard. I will make the next set of pictures bigger When is your's going to be done? Promise me you won't cry if mine is bigger
Pavement pounder, I wouldn't dream of hacking up the scrambler. The whole reason that I bought one was that they are unique. I hate it when people bob the rear end on these!!! Its almost a form over function issue with these to an extent (although mine will be very functional!!)

I wouldn't go much bigger than mine, and i like the way my ass looks

Yeah, I knew yours was bobbed. I was waiting to see your reaction That definitely makes them more functional, and with that longer wheelbase of 103" they can be unstoppable. Did you see the last issue of Four Wheeler? The scrambler won their top truck challenge.
I just leave the tail on so I can carry more ho's in the back....giggity giggity giggity. :cool:

Nice write-up & sequence of pics, 87'YJ. You should post up the same thing over on cj-8.com...the guys there would definitely like to see this. Good to see you on that forum, BTW.
I'm a big Scrambler fan myself. Click here for pics of the Inca Gold Scrambler I built (but sold this Summer).
Much to your dismay, I may consider bobbing the tub/frame on my next Scrambler project (which already has some rear end damage). See this thread for pics. I'll be posting its own project thread shortly.
Side note...
If you haven't checked out the details on the SOA charity Scrambler (see link in my sig), take a look. We'll be raffling it off for charity when it's done. It has a new AFW frame, rust-free OEM Scrambler tub, and other sponsors including Rancho, M.O.R.E., Austin Jeeps, Five Star Auto, Herculiner, and the earlycj5.com guys.

Craig, That scrambler looks like it will be fun to build! I had to deal with so much stinkin rust on mine. I will be nice to start basically rust free (Thats how I feel about that YJ I'm selling). I'm on CJ-8.com all the time, I'll go ahead and post this over there. And yes, I have checked out the scrambler for charity....its very cool! I hope that ends up raising some serious funds!
I almost cried when you said you were bobbing the frame Don't do it!!! I like driving down the street and having people point and say..."what is that thing?!!" The scramblers are so unique! but either way, we deffinitely need to go wheeling together when we're both done! That goes for you to Bill!
P.S.- You still have that junker scrambler tub/ frame for sale? Did you decide to build it? (I'm guessing no from the pictures I'm seeing)

I'm not certain about bobbing yet...we'll see.
A buddy of mine from Kentucky just drove up last night and picked up the junker frame/tub. It was basically a title with a set of axles & rollbar. He's going to build it into a future project once he completes the Scrambler he's currently working on.
And yes, we'll definitely have to meet up to wheel. : )

All right dudes. Here is an update to the scrambler build!
I got the axles newly rebuilt back from ARC Spring. he ground off part of the housing (which is on the scout axles) and welded spring perches on the top as well.
We then preped the frame for the new YJ springs. As many of you are aware, CJs are 2 1/2" springs in the rear, but only 2" in the front where as YJs are 2 1/2" all the way around. We needed all new bushings in the spring hangers and because the bolts in YJ shackles are larger, we removed the metal sleeve in the bushings to allow for room.
We then constructed outboard spring mounts for the front (due to the wider Dana 44 scout axles) using the existing hangers. We at the same time did a shackle reversal in the front. As you can see, we didn't get the angle quite right. I will go with a smaller shackle and a lower front mounting point.
Here is what it looks like with the axles mounted.
We put tires on to get the droop corect so we could find pinion angles. Here is what she'll look like when shes got wheels!!
the next step will be the steering (deciding between hy-steer or something else) I can't seem to get a straight answer from anyone on which flat top knuckles will work for my scout axles. They have the Dana 30 knuckles (6 bolt knuckles, not the 8 bolt scout knuckles) and would like to get some good flat tops for it. brakes come after that then gas lines.
More to come soon!!

YJ renegades had a run of less than 10,000 total in comparison. Many people think they are ugly, and on aspects I would agree. Just like I think everything behind the rear tires of a scrambler is not only ugly but right out there where the rocks can tear the crap out of it. What is better... a bobbed CJ8? Or a stock tub that is beat to crap :)
My point being? No one cries when people cut up Renegades, or sell the flares on eBay... which is good. Mostly because Jeeps aren't collectors items. They are utility vehicles. If every Scramber and Renegade disapeared from the earth tomorrow i would not shed a tear (as long as mine was still behind the shop as a regular YJ :tonka:)
Sometimes I want to start buying Scramblers and Waggies and cut the frames in half and send them off to scrap... just to make Jeep people "cringe"

BTW dave you have came a long way from that lift install last year at the shop. Looks great

About the high steer, this is a D44, so any D44 knuckle with fit it, you just need the knuckles that are capable of putting high steer arms on them.
I have a scout II 44, did you fix your caster and/or d/s angle yet? I did it on mine, not realy easy, but worth it.
|December 5th, 2005, 07:44 PM
he still doesn't have the pinion angle worked out yet, so caster is still a ways out.
defenetly a lot of progress. I'll be interested to see how fast the "little things" come together

Really, I have not heard of this. I am using a Scout II front, with Waggy Knuckles, and the Ford hub/rotor chevy bearing set up. I didn't know some knuckles/"C's" where different than others when it comes to D44/10 bolts.

I believe you can get the flat tops with a 90deg (to the spindle) surface also...

Another day of delicious recipes from Daniella Germain! Don't forget to leave a comment before 10pm Thursday for the chance to win a copy of My Abuela's Table, and be sure to pop over to Daniella's really cute blog too! – Jenny x
Christmas eve is a very special date for Mexicans (95% of the population is Catholic), even more celebrated than Christmas day itself. As with all special occasions it involves the getting together of family and friends, who begin the night's celebration singing traditional Mexican carols and the breaking of a piñata. Mexican piñatas are traditionally made from a large clay pot covered in colourful pieces of tissue paper and usually shaped like a star. The pot is filled with fruit, pieces of sugar cane, peanuts in their shell and small toys. When the pot breaks children rush to collect the fallen goodies while the adults drink ponche (hot punch) – recipe below! The evening culminates in a wonderful feast consisting of Bacalao a la vizcaina (Spanish Cod), Pierna de puerco a la Navidena (leg of pork in cider), Ensalada Navidena (Christmas salad) and of course Pavo enchilado Noche Buena (Turkey in spicy adobo) – see the recipe below!
Pavo Enchilado Noche Buena (Christmas Turkey)
Serves 8
For the turkey:
4 onions
3 peppercorns
6 garlic cloves
1 slice bread, toasted
1 cup chipotle sauce
125 ml chicken stock
1 x 3 kg whole turkey
For the stuffing:
1 slice bread
125 ml milk
500g minced beef
500g minced pork
4 rashers middle bacon
2 chicken stock cubes
¼ cup semi-sweet sherry
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves
¼ cup walnuts
½ teaspoon black pepper
8 pitted prunes, chopped finely
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
- The night before: In a blender or food processor, blend the onions, peppercorns, garlic, bread, chipotle sauce and chicken stock until smooth and thick. Rub this paste all over the turkey (inside and out). Cover with foil and place in the refrigerator overnight.
- The next day: Preheat the oven to 220°C. For the stuffing, place the slice of bread on a plate. Cover with the milk and allow to absorb into the bread.
- In a saucepan, fry all the stuffing ingredients (except the bread) in 2 tablespoons oil until brown. Add ¼ cup water and cover, allowing to simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- When cool, stuff the turkey with this mixture. Place the slice of bread at the end of the turkey to seal the cavity. Tie the legs together with cooking twine.
- Bake in oven for 1 hour. Reduce the heat to 190°C and cook for a further 1½ hours or until done. To achieve a golden bird, remove foil 30 minutes before the cooking time is complete.
- Serve with roasted vegetables and chipotle sauce.
Ponche Navideño (Christmas punch)
Makes 6 litres
5 litres water
½ cup rosella fruit* (optional)
8 pieces sugar cane (optional)
2 cinnamon sticks, whole
200 g guava (or quince) paste
4 small apples, cubed
6 guavas (or pears), cubed
6 plums, left whole
5 prunes, stoned
½ cup raisins
¼ cup dried apricots
1 kg brown sugar
500 ml brandy, rum or red wine
*You can find rosella fruit at some speciality or health food stores.
- In a large saucepan, boil the water with the rosella fruit, sugar cane, cinnamon and the other fruits.
- Bring to the boil, and simmer for 10–15 minutes.
- Add the sugar and brandy just before you are ready to serve.
- Serve very hot in mugs. This drink is perfect for cold winter days!

Where do you live and why?
I live in Barnes. Everywhere in London refers to itself as a village but Barnes really does feel like one. It would be perfect if it had its own cinema.
How long have you lived there?
Four years. I've always lived in South London.
What advice would you give to a tourist?
Walk faster. And don't go to We Will Rock You. I went with my sister, who is a big Queen fan. She was only just a Queen fan when she left.
Who is in your secret address book?
Two Peas in a Pod, which is my local fruit and veg place. Channel Films for DVDs - you feel like you are walking on to an Indie movie set. I go to Wigmore Sports to get my tennis racket restrung, Shelley's on Dean Street for chicken sandwiches and John Lewis for everything else.
What is your earliest London memory?
I used to come to London with my mum's amateur theatre group. I also came to town with my dad in 1978 to watch QPR beat Burnley 7-0.
What are your extravagances?
My membership of the Harbour Club in Chelsea. I play tennis there and recently played Tony Hawks, Jonathan Ross, David Baddiel and Jimmy Carr. I suppose there's a bit of a 'comedy tennis circuit'.
What would you do if you were Mayor for the day?
I would introduce a £5,000 fine for urinating in the street. I find it pathetic, irresponsible, childish and disgusting. All the money could go to funding fully staffed public toilets.
What is your life philosophy?
Treat people as you would be treated and be responsible towards the planet.
Do you have a favourite pub?
I love going for a drink at the Riverside theatre bar in Hammersmith. It's got a nice indie arts' vibe. I also like the Red Lion in Barnes. I don't drink beer, though, I think it tastes foul. I always drink ginger ale on TV as a prop.
What aftershave do you wear?
I adore perfume on women, especially Chanel, but can't stand aftershave.
What are your current projects?
I'm writing a film script at the moment --a biopic of a historical figure. It's very different to writing sketches - there's loads of research and I'm not getting paid! I also went to Prague recently to take a small role in a film with Elijah Wood, called Everything is Illuminated. I play a rabbi.
What was the last CD you bought?
I liked the UNKLE album, Never, Never, Land. I actually have a pretty small collection of CDs as I just skip around the radio - normally Virgin FM until the ads get too irritating (after all, I do a lot of them).
Where were the last three places you went on holiday?
Québec, which was fascinating and very beautiful. Before that, I went to Dorset cycling with my girlfriend and to Isle de Ré, off La Rochelle in France. The food was amazing.
What were the last books you bought?
Mark Billingham's Sleepy Head. He does stand-up, but he's also written this superb detective novel. And Maggie O'Farrell's After You'd Gone.
What was the last play you saw in London and did you enjoy it?
The last musical I went to see was Singin' in the Rain with Ronni Ancona. That was marvellous - I was very proud of Ronni. The last play I went to see was Journey's End, which was a phenomenal experience.
What have been your most memorable London meals?
I have never had a bad meal at J Sheekey. It has a great atmosphere and lovely grub - I always go for the fish pie. Monzil does the best curries in Barnes.
What items are in your summer wardrobe?
I got a lot of Banana Republic stuff in America recently. I also go to Questionnaire in Barnes, which stocks designers such as Joseph and Paul Smith. I got some Paul Smith linen trousers from there the other day.
How do you get around town?
I love cycling on my Ridgeback mountain bike, but in town I get a lot of taxis. I was banned from my local minicab firm, as I kept criticising their drivers - they were cutting up cyclists.
What are your favourite home comforts?
Apple juice. I buy Ringden Farm juice from the farmer's market in Barnes. If I am away, I end up yearning for it. I'm also very fussy about my pillows. I have to have feather ones.

Christmas 2013
I've just come home from a three day Ski-ing trip to Hakuba, which gave me the chance to ski down some of the same runs used in the 1998 Nagano winter Olympics. After so many years off the snow, it was a thrilling and somewhat humbling experience to be on skis again.
The conditions were amazing (only iPhone snapshots this time). Hakuba is renowned for its great snow and it was thrilling to arrive in town and hear there had been 50cm+ of snow overnight at the base of the runs and even more on the top of the mountain. The snow continued to fall for the first two days of the trip, before the skies opened into glorious sunshine on the final morning.
As I've written about before, I used to love Ski-ing for the same reasons I loved golf, it is a sport you can enjoy socially and yet is largely a personal experience. Ski-ing is a deeply creative activity, the way you approach the mountain, the line you ski, the way you ski it and yet, it requires a degree of real discipline and mastery of technique.
It was an extraordinary end to an amazing year. In January I was sweltering in tropical heat in Singapore and by December I was enjoying a snowy winter wonderland in my new home country of Japan. It's the nature of this time of year to reflect back on where we've been and be thankful for those who've helped us along the way.
I hope wherever you are and however you spend this time of year, it is filled with light, hope, peace and joy. Thank you for reading this blog and for all your support over the past year. 2014 is just around the corner and I hope you find it be a year full of creativity, adventure and fulfilment.

Articles about reggae music, reviews, interviews, reports and more...
Reggae music is for many people synonymous with the teachings of Rastafari and Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie, crowned Ras Tafari in November 1930. If you dig a little deeper in this philosophy you'll find Jamaican Marcus Garvey (1887-1940), an important figure in the U.S. Civil Rights Movement as well as for the ideas behind Rastafari.
French film maker and director Hélène Lee has however dug way deep in the Rasta movement and made a documentary about a well-travelled Jamaican preacher called Leonard Percival Howell (1898-1981), contemporary with Marcus Garvey and perhaps the most important figure behind the creation and rise of the Rasta movement in Jamaica.
'The First Rasta' follows in the footsteps in Leonard Howell and contains interviews with his family, academics, co-workers, musicians, politicians and ordinary people.
In his late teen Leonard Howell boards a boat in Jamaica and travels the world. Upon his return to his home island after almost 20 years he has lots of ideas and criticizes the western way of living. He is regarded by the authorities as a revolutionary and refuses to pay taxes to King George VI of the United Kingdom and is in 1933 arrested for treason and blasphemy.
He's jailed, ridiculed and treated as insane, but manages to establish the first Rasta community in 1939. In Pinnacle, as the community is called, the first ideas concerning Rasta are formulated.
Pinnacle is isolated from the rest of society and frowned upon by the authorities. The camp is raided several times before it is finally shut down in 1959. The Rasta followers start to spread all over Jamaica and many settles down in the Kingston ghetto areas, and contrary to what the authorities wanted the movement starts to gain followers, where some of the most well-known ones are Burning Spear and Bob Marley.
This is a well-researched documentary that goes beyond the mere obvious – marijuana, reggae and dreadlocks. Hélène Lee manages to present a movement and a complex person with inspiration ranging from spirituality and black awareness to communism.
Even though the Rasta's lives were made difficult in the early years, the movement and the ideas behind Rastafari have spread all over the world, and have had a strong and positive impact on many people lives. And all of this thanks to a man regarded as a threat to society.

President Ahmadinejad is fighting for his political life just days before the election of a new president in Iran. The mouth that spews anger and hatred directed it towards important clerics such as Rafsanjani, a former president, which elicited furious reactions and letters directed to the Supreme Leader Khamenei urging him to intervene and halt the ongoing verbal assault by Ahmadinejad against anyone who dares oppose him. In a recent debate, the Iranian president accused past leaders of being corrupt and even charged the wife of his opponent had used false credentials to become a college administrator. There is no doubt millions of young people, particularly women, are fed up with the authoritarian rule of Ahmadinejad and want someone who is in tune with the future of their country rather than a leader who seeks to return life to what it was in the early days of the glorious revolution which drove out the Shah.
There are three possible scenarios as a result of the presidential election. If reformer Mousavi wins, intellectuals, urban groups, and college students will be invigorated with the hope of change. If Ahmadinejad wins, he will confront a radicalized youth which is prepared to go into the streets with mass demonstrations in support of their right to individual liberty. A third scenario is the intervention of clerics to establish stability in society regardless of who is the president. Hopefully, youth can achieve their goals in the coming days for the right to enter the 21st century and share the new world along with their fellow students all over the world.
