After a considerable amount of thinking, the best word I can use to describe the newest cinematic incarnation of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" is… "EH."
It wasn't the most horrible film I've ever witnessed and it certainly wasn't the greatest. It was sort of in the middle of the road — kind of like one of those real-life turtles you see trying to cross the street when you take a ride down to one of the shore points in New Jersey — just sitting there, oblivious to the fact it's backing up traffic, not knowing whether to go one way or another. In a way, I guess it's an apt metaphor for a film filled with masked, human-sized turtles who study martial arts and love pizza.
It's such a simple juvenile concept. In fact, I still remember the first time I heard about the unorthodox franchise with the weird-sounding name. I was still an impressionable whipper-snapper who was already used to watching cartoons featuring little blue beings that lived in mushrooms, as well as talking dogs who fixed themselves sandwiches and solved mysteries and I STILL thought that the concept behind "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" sounded silly and far-fetched. Sure enough, it definitely was, nevertheless it worked. It had an interesting mythology, memorable characters and a unique style. Like many of my fellow impressionable whipper-snappers, I was hooked.
However, that was decades ago.
Therein lies the problem with this tired franchise and also with this film — it simple hasn't changed enough to remain relevant.
What started out as a whimsical idea by co-creators Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman has morphed into a legitimate pop culture icon during the three
decades since its meager inception at Mirage Studios back in 1984. Having said that, these teenage turtles are starting to show cracks in their facade at age thirty. Even though the screenwriting tandem of Andre Nemec, Josh Appelbaum and Evan Daugherty tried their best to give the franchise a 2014 makeover — even going so far as limiting well-known franchise catchphrases to only certain, special occasions within the context of the film — the whole thing seems so… well, how do I put this?
Simply put, these teens have refused to grow up while the rest of the world have passed them by.
Really, it's a shame that such a fantastic, near perfect summer action flick like "Guardians of the Galaxy" had to come out only a week before "Turtles" was released and steal the show, but them's the breaks. While "Guardians" highlighted a largely unknown group of characters and provided them with witty banter, top-notch CGI effects, and a hipster-oriented, "wink-wink" sense of humor, "Turtles" took a bunch of well-known, beloved characters and gave them a script full of fart jokes and tired genre cliches to work with.
If you had to break it down, the turtles aren't really to blame for this muck-up. Now, I'm a die-hard sports fan and it kind of reminds me of the same problem the Philadelphia Phillies are going through at the moment. While the easy route would be to use past-their-prime players like Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley as scapegoats, I see the owners and management as the guilty party. If old and broken-down veterans are expected to play like eager, spritely rookies AND you also surround them with various tools that turn out to be dull and blunt then success would be awfully hard to come by.
The same case can be made regarding the "Turtles" movie. Aging franchises that used to be funny aren't always AS funny in present times. In a way, management surrounded Donatello, Raphael, Michelangelo and Leonardo (in case you didn't know, these are the Turtles' names) with the same pun-filled, bad writing and lackluster, humdrum characters that used to be fresh and new when they first started and expected it to continue to work with very few changes. That is NOT exactly the recipe for success.
Granted, the aesthetic look of the Turtles and some of the other main characters (like their rat sensai Splinter and the film's primary villain Shredder) might have received a slight makeover, but their nostalgic, yet worn-down core still remains intact. It's an uninspiring and lazy way to make movies and might be the reason why the Turtles are always getting a "reboot" every few years. For some reason, SOMEBODY thinks this franchise should be reintroduced to the American public every once in a while and THIS particular time that "somebody" is Hollywood producer/director extraordinaire (or at least he thinks so) Michael Bay.
It didn't surprise me that Bay (who only produced this go-round) is trying to take a stab at returning another once-relevant franchise to its former
glory. I mean, ever since his success with the "Transformers' films it's seemingly been his obsession to recreate this particular brand of Hollywood makeover magic. He tried to do it with "Friday the 13th" — failure. He tried with "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" — semi-failure. He EVEN added three sequels to his Transformer legacy, which have increasingly gotten worse with every addition. Now, he's trying to cinematically resurrect the "Turtles," which wouldn't be a problem if Bay just paid attention to his main audience is.
Now, there were two types of audience members at the screening I attended who were the MOST excited to see the new "Turtles" film. The first type were small children — ages 4 thru, let's say, 10 (as well as their not-so-excited parents) — who carried around "Turtles" action figures and practiced their karate moves while waiting in-line. I guarantee that the majority of these tikes ended up liking the film and weren't too concerned with any of the plot, dialogue or character depth. So, for the first type, the film was most likely a glorious success.
The second type were grown-up versions of kids who had been exposed to one variation or another of the Turtles franchise during the formative years of their lives and came to watch the new "Turtles" film for nostalgic purposes. Basically, fans (or some refer to them as "fanboys") who love them some old school… ummh… stuff. I guarantee that a majority of this type of audience member (including me) ended up HATING this new direction that Bay and company have taken the Turtles to.
I know, I know. You can't please everyone, but in Bay's attempts to cater to the second type — the fanboys — he completely alienated the first type — the small children (and their not-so-excited parents). For some odd reason, Bay was okay with churning out a film with a PG-13 rating. Now, my niece is 6 yars-old and her parents would not let me take her to this film BECAUSE of its PG-13 rating. In other words, they were convinced it would be too violent and it frightened them away EVEN though the ad campaigns make it seem like it's child-friendly.
It's really an exercise in futility — young kids are going to want to see this film, because it looks funny, silly and entertaining, but their parents aren't going to let them. I mean, there's a "Turtle" cartoon that airs on Nickelodeon as we speak. For goodness sake, this newest film was BACKED by Nickelodeon, but it's still rated PG-13. It makes ZERO sense. The only thing I can think of is that Bay wanted to duplicate the success he had with the Transformers franchise and he didn't think the fanboys would show up for a PG film, so he upped the violence a little and added a few questionable situations and phrases to cater towards a more adult audience. Any way the katana slices it, this "ratings" decision is going to hurt this film immensely and will ultimately be its downfall — mark my words.
The actual film itself, well, it's really not even worth talking about. Just picture any AND every action movie cliche and I guarantee it makes an appearance in this movie. It's not TOTALLY the fault of the writers. Some of the bigger cliches are a result of the original character traits created by Eastman and Laird all those years back, but mostly it IS the writers. Sorry, I call 'em like I see 'em.
For example, the hard-nosed, eager TV journalist April O'Neill (played by Megan Fox — who, like Bay, is trying to regain her former "Transformers" glory) embodies this cinematic stereotype perfectly. She's not happy with her fluffy, human interest story gig, so she puts herself in harm's way to get the scoop. Later, this character transforms (pun intended) into an Emma Stone/Gwen Stacy archetype (from "The Amazing Spider-Man") and becomes the fighting damsel-in-distress. In fact, this film borrows a number of elements from "Spider-Man" — including Whoopi Goldberg (she's back!!!) and her very J. Jonah Jameson turn as O'Neill's jerky boss Bernadette Thompson.
"Turtles" borrows and pilfers from a lot of films and licenses — like Batman and James Bond — but sometimes the writers seem to be aware they ARE
doing this and it reflects in some of the dialogue choices. This doesn't make it right, but it does soften some of the more blatant acts of larceny and at least it shows that they know their film is wholly unoriginal.
The action is also uninspired, but it still ends up being fun to watch — especially a fairly long "sledding" sequence where our heroes do their best impression of Indiana Jones (from "Raiders of the Lost Ark") and Shaun White at the same time. There are some impressive fight scenes as well, but a lot of them are courtesy of CGI-based characters, so I'm not sure what's real and what's not, which makes them slightly less impressive. I guess I'd have to give the animators a pat on the back then. I mean, it's no "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes," but the Turtles themselves did look pretty fantastic throughout — especially some of the more close-up scenes.
Back to more of the real-life actors. Will Arnett was adequate in his role as Vernon — April O'Neill's cameraman/sidekick/possible love interest. Basically he was there for comic relief purposes. I CAN say that a few of Arnett's less contrived lines managed to garner a chuckle from the audience. However, I can also say that all of his jokes combined wouldn't hold a nunchuck to just ONE of Chris Pratt's (Star Lord) lesser jokes in "Guardians." I can honestly say that Dave Bautista was funnier as Drax than Arnett was in this film. Again, it's not entirely the player's (Arnett) fault when management (Bay, the writers, and director Jonathan Leibesman) gives them nothing to work with. In this case, the "nothing" is the boring, watered-down screenplay.
On the flip side, William Fichtner is quite effective (as usual) as self-made businessman and philanthropist Eric Sacks. That being said, Fichtner has absolutely perfected the role of the slimy, creepy, untrustworthy type and his performance in "Turtles" is no different from any of his previous work. If you've seen him in "The Lone Ranger" (that is, if you've actually even SEEN "The Lone Ranger"), you'll know what I'm talking about. If you've seen him in "The Longest Yard," you'll know what I'm talking about. If you've seen him in "Heat" (my personal favorite Fichtner performance), you'll know what I'm talking about. Here, I'll make this even simpler. If you saw him play the cold and calculated rich guy in "Elysium," then you can easily picture him as Eric Sacks, because it's pretty much the same character with a little bit more screen time.
Now, Megan Fox as April O'Neill. What can I say about her? Well… uhhh… she's… uhhh… Megan Fox is really a good-looking woman.
While the CGI-rendering of the actual Ninja Turtles themselves might not be as funny as Rocket Raccoon (from "Guardians") and might not be as
impressive looking as Caesar (from "Apes"), they still do the trick, but that's part of the problem though. ALL they do is tricks. Somehow, they still manage to come off like amphibious versions of X Games rejects, which might have been ahead of its time in the 1980's, trendy in the 1990's, and retro in the 2000's, but it's simply played-out by today's standards. Even without the constant catch-phrases ("cowabunga" anyone?), which the screenwriters tried their best to ignore, the turtles end up being sad and tired. Dare I say it? They're simply shells of their former selves (sorry, I had to).
Again, it won't really matter. Kids will LOVE the good old "turtle power" anyway, as most of the jokes are aimed towards those with juvenile senses of humor, but — guess what? — most of these kids won't make it to theaters in the first place, due to the aforementioned ratings snafu. And that, my friends, is what they call a "catch-22." Or should I say, a "catch turtle-2″ (now, that one I REALLY apologize for).
As you can probably tell, I was NOT that big of a fan of this cliche-ridden, predictable and fairly unspectacular "summer spectacular." But let me be totally fair, I'm not exactly a fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise in general, so take my negativity with a grain of salt (and a sprinkle of sherry, because THAT'S what makes a great snapper soup).
However, the person that WILL end up digging this flick is your young son and/or daughter or maybe even your niece and/or nephew. As long as they're under 13, they'll find it appealing. Actually, I'll put my reputation on the line and guarantee that there is nothing TOO inappropriate for young people in this film, especially those over 6 or 7. This makes that PG-13 rating even more of an awful shame, doesn't it?, "Turtles" is aimed towards the under-13 crowd, but it ended up with a rating that assures youngsters can NOT get in without a guardian. What a mess.
And wouldn't cha know it, "Guardians" have trumped the Turtles once again.

A full-blown salary war has erupted in India in response to increased local and international competition for talent, resulting in pay increases of more than 50 per cent at most top Indian law firms in the last year.
Indian law school graduates can now earn around £15,000 per annum at firms such as FoxMandal Little, while Luthra & Luthra has hiked its base salary for the third time in a year by a total of nearly 80 per cent.
Abhishek Saxena, a partner at Trilegal, with which Allen & Overy (A&O) has a non-exclusive referral arrangement, said: "It's because there are competing forces for a short supply of good-quality lawyers.
"Good-quality lawyers are not only being hired by law firms in India, but various international firms have started hiring lawyers straight from law school or from Indian firms."
In recent years A&O, Clifford Chance, Herbert Smith, Linklaters, Olswang and SJ Berwin have recruited many Indian law school students and laterals. Clifford Chance is understood to have received more than 100 applications and has taken on more than 10 trainees from India in the latest round.
One UK firm partner said: "I feel a bit sorry for [Indian firms]. It's a bit like it was with us when the Americans first came to London."

New Brunswick Spring Bear Season Open
Spring bear-hunting season opened in New Brunswick on Monday, April 21, and runs until Saturday, June 28. It is illegal for hunters to harvest female bears accompanied by one or more cubs.
A bear licence is valid for all three 2008 bear-hunting seasons: the spring season, fall bow-hunting season, and the regular fall season. The bag limit for each hunter is one bear per year.
Resident bear-hunting licences are available at Natural Resources district offices and several Service New Brunswick centres. Residents may hunt in any wildlife management zone (WMZ) open for bear hunting. Non-resident licences are available directly from qualified outfitters and guides, or the Department of Natural Resources, Fish and Wildlife Branch. Non-residents are restricted to hunting bear in the WMZ indicated on their licences.
Outfitters and guides are reminded of the federal regulation restricting movement of black-bear trophies and parts across international borders. This regulation was implemented by Canada in 1992 to comply with the listing of the North American black bear by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). Although the North American black bear is not endangered, it has been listed to help control the illegal trade of several bear species that are endangered.
The regulation states that any international exports of live or dead black bears, as well as their parts or derivatives, must be accompanied with a valid CITES export permit. This regulation will affect non-Canadian black-bear hunters in New Brunswick, who must obtain a CITES export permit if they want to leave the country with any part of a black bear. Some exemptions may apply. Contact Natural Resources offices for more information. CITES export permits are available at Natural Resources district offices during regular business hours.
Bear hunters are encouraged to concentrate on sportsmanship, hunter safety and ethics. New Brunswick has many excellent hunting opportunities, and it is up to each hunter to help manage wildlife resources in a responsible manner.

What About Water Baptism?
I received two requests today for information on water baptism. One request came via our Ask the Pastor site. The other request is from a member of DepartingUPC. In this study I will deal with both questions. Let's discuss the issue of water baptism.
This is Bible Study DU007 - What About Water Baptism?
(1) Here is the question from our Ask the Pastor page: "Why did the church stop baptizing in the name of Jesus, as it was in the book of the Acts of the Apostles?"
(2) Here is the request from a member of DepartingUPC: "Could you discuss the role of baptism in terms of the early church. As you know; in 'apostolic' circles, baptism is tied to salvation using Peter's response to the question: what must we do, and the statement that baptism doth also now save us."
Let's look at (1). Here is my response to our Ask the Pastor question. (Edited for clarity.):
"According to the earliest Christian writings the Church baptized both ways. It appears that most did not see any distinction between baptizing in the name of Jesus or baptizing in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. To them it was all about authority. Keep in mind that when reading the Acts of the Apostles you are reading a limited rendition of early church history.
"When you see the term 'name' in Scripture, it generally speaks of authority. So if Jesus told the disciples to baptize in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, He would have been giving them the express authority to do so. This is how the triune baptism was considered. It was done in and by the authority of Jesus.
"Actually water baptism could just have easily have been stated as, 'By the authority of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.'" It would not have really mattered. The issue comes back to the One who authorized water baptism and under whose authority does it come?
"There is another issue that needs to be considered. Calling upon the name of the Lord is something that the candidate does. What the minister says is not some magical formula in water baptism. According to Scripture, salvation is always in the mouth of the one coming to Jesus. For this reason the crucial issue is not with what the minister says, but what the candidate says."
That was my Ask the Pastor response. Now for more thoughts.
Think about it. Is a person's salvation to be placed in the mouth of the one doing the baptizing? Or, is salvation wholly a matter of the person being baptized? This is not a trite question. It reaches into the very heart of Biblical redemption.
If we say that our salvation is contingent upon the words that a minister speaks over us in baptism, then we then have placed ourselves in the same category as is found in the Roman Catholic Church, that is, with the doctrine of transubstantiation.
In this doctrine the priest has the 'supposed' power to change the wine and bread into the real blood and body of Christ, by simply saying the words, 'hoc est corpus.' Suddenly the elements are magically changed. Do we want to think that a minister has the power to cause a person to be saved by saying something over them? Hardly.
When is a person actually saved? Is he saved before baptism, during baptism, or after baptism? The answer is that baptism is for a person who had already accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Water baptism is a rite of affirmation, that is, it has to do with a covenant walk. As believers we are commanded to be baptized in water.
Now to the second issue (2). The question here involves what Peter meant in saying that baptism now saves us. Here is the Scripture in question:
"Corresponding to that [flood of Noah], baptism now saves you -- not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience - - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ." (1Pe 3:21)
This is probably the most abused water baptism Scripture used today. The simple side of this is that Peter is pointing to the affirmation of our faith in the death, burial, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus. This is why he said that water baptism represents our faith in Jesus, that it serves as an open appeal to God for a good conscience.
Lets now look at what Peter clearly defines as salvation. It is not fair to seclude one Scripture from the body of Scriptures to try and create a doctrine. This is what all eisegesis based, restrictive religions do. Listen carefully: (Eisegesis means 'reading into.')
At the council of the church in Acts 15, it was called to determine how to handle all the Gentiles who were being saved. Not one time is water baptism ever mentioned. But what Peter has to say places salvation where it needs to be. Here are excerpts of statements made by Peter:
"And God, who knows the heart, testified to them giving them the Holy Spirit just as He also did to us; and He made no distinction between us and them, CLEANSING THEIR HEARTS BY FAITH..." (Keep the statement in caps in view. It applies to what Peter said about baptism having to do with our appeal for a cleansed conscience as an appeal for our faith.)
Peter then says, "But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way as they also are." (Cf. Acts 15)
Peter is pointing to the fact that Cornelius and his household were saved before they were baptized in water. The command of water baptism came after they were saved. And this is where the confusion comes in on what Peter is talking about in his statement, "baptism now saves us."
The apostle is dealing with types and symbols that are found in the Old Testament. Notice carefully how Peter begins his statement concerning 'baptism now saves us.' He says, 'Corresponding to that.' This is a single Greek term that speaks of an antitype that takes the place of the type.
In dealing with types and symbols, Peter is saying that water baptism alone is not the saving element. Water baptism is equal to a type in that it serves to confirm or reaffirm our faith in Jesus Christ. Thus water baptism is an appeal to God for a good conscience, in saying that we truly believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Water baptism is a follow through of our faith. It is here that we fully and openly express our faith in Jesus Christ.
If this seems difficult to grasp, let me add something that many believers are unacquainted with. For the Jewish people, water baptism was a covenant rite. It expressed that the believer had entered into a covenant relationship with the God of Israel. In this sense no believer should feel that water baptism is not a necessary part of our walk with the Lord. It should never be downplayed. Water baptism is actually the first commandment of faith that follows our having received the blood atonement.
This is why Paul speaks of the mystical side of water baptism in that the old man (or, the old master) is cut off in water baptism, and we now come fully under our new Master, the Lord Jesus Christ.
All the Jewish apostles placed a high premium on water baptism, but not in the sense that the blood is applied in water baptism. The blood is to be applied before baptism. Water baptism had to do with covenant authority, with the obedience of faith, with fellowship and communion. It had to do with community. No person was accepted into the community of faith without water baptism.
One of the best examples we have with regard to types and shadows of the former testament involves Israel coming out of Egypt. The blood had been applied to their homes. This disallowed any judgment from God. They were saved in the sight of God. They actually belonged to Him. But there was a problem. They needed to identify more fully with Moses and not with Pharaoh. It could be said that they were still in Pharaoh's territory.
Something had to happen before Pharaoh would completely release his hold on the people of God. What happened to produce this effect? Israel passed through the Red Sea. In the passing through the sea, the old life, the old master, and the old way of living were cut off. It was through the waters that they came fully under the authority of Moses.
Here is what Paul said: "For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea, and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea." (1Co 10:1,2)
Yet the point must be made. They were God's people before they came through the sea. Water baptism is an act of faith and any acting on our faith will have spiritual ramifications. (Every step of obedience does.) Peter is making a similar statement with regard to 'baptism now saves you.'
It is not my desire to weary you by saying too much. I recommend that members view our Hebraic-Foundations studies. Skim through the list. You will find studies that deal with a great variety of subjects. (156 studies at present.) Go to:
One study in particular speaks to the subject at hand. See HF021 - Bodies Washed With Pure Water.
On a personal note, I have always baptized people in the name of Jesus. I do this out of tradition. Sometimes I will say something like this, "I baptize you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, who represents all that God is as Father, Son and Holy Spirit." However, I never discount another believer's baptism. The issue for me is if the person has truly accepted Jesus Christ as their own Lord and Savior.
Here is one way that Jewish believers are baptizing in Israel. They say, "I baptize you in the name of Jesus Christ, who brings us to the heavenly Father, who graciously gives us the Holy Spirit."
Does it really matter? Think this through for yourself and let the Lord help you with a better understanding.

Theresa May accuses Labour of 'turning a blind eye' to anti-Semitism
Prime Minister Theresa May has accused Labour of "turning a blind eye" to anti-Semitism, as she announced new measures to "call out" perpetrators of hatred against Jewish people.
Speaking at a private lunch of the Conservative Friends of Israel in London, Mrs May announced the UK is adopting an international formal definition of anti-Semitism as part of its efforts to eradicate the prejudice.
And she said it was "disgusting" that anti-Semitic views were found in British politics, making clear to her audience that she believed this happened mainly within "the Labour Party and their hard-left allies".
Labour has backed the Government's adoption of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of anti-Semitism, and a spokesman for Jeremy Corbyn said the party believed that "language or behaviour that displays hatred towards Jews is anti-Semitism, and is as repugnant and unacceptable as any other form of racism".
But Mrs May said it was the Conservatives who were taking "the firmest stand" against anti-Semitism.
"Let me be clear: it is unacceptable that there is anti-Semitism in this country," she said. " It is even worse that incidents are reportedly on the rise.
"And it is disgusting that these twisted views are being found in British politics. Of course, I am talking mainly about the Labour Party and their hard-left allies."
Labour's deputy leader Tom Watson made a declaration of support for Israel by singing the anthem Am Yisrael Chai - The People of Israel Live - at a Westminster lunch last month.
But Mrs May said: "N o amount of karaoke can make up for turning a blind eye to anti-Semitism.
"No matter what Labour say - or sing - they cannot ignore what has been happening in their party."
Her comments are the latest in a series of accusations that the Labour Party has failed to tackle anti-Semitism within its ranks.
A report into the claims by the former director of civil liberties organisation Liberty, Shami Chakrabarti, was denounced as a ''whitewash'' by Jewish groups, and there was further controversy when she was made a life peer by Mr Corbyn.
The Government is set to publish its response to a Home Affairs Select Committee inquiry into anti-Semitism. The report was described as biased by Mr Corbyn after it found he had failed to provide ''consistent leadership'' in tackling the problem within his party.
In a comment released before Mrs May's speech, a spokesman for the Labour leader said: " Jeremy has consistently spoken out against all forms of anti-Semitism and condemned all anti-Semitic abuse, and set up the Chakrabarti inquiry into anti-Semitism and other forms of racism.
"Its recommendations have already led to far-reaching changes to the rules and practice of the Labour Party. He has also taken decisive disciplinary action over allegations of anti-Semitism, including a series of suspensions and exclusions from membership."
In May this year the IHRA - an intergovernmental organisation backed by 31 countries - agreed a definition of anti-Semitism it hopes will become widely adopted globally.
It states: "Anti-Semitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of anti-Semitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities."
Police already use a version of the definition but it will now be used by councils, universities and other public bodies.
Mrs May said its adoption in the UK " means there will be one definition of anti-Semitism - in essence, language or behaviour that displays hatred towards Jews because they are Jews - and anyone guilty of that will be called out on it".
The move was saluted by Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, who said he hoped it would " provide a clarity which will herald a far more effective discourse on the ways that we can highlight and challenge anti-Semitism wherever it is found".
He added: "I would also like to welcome the Labour Party's support for the definition and call upon other political parties and organisations worldwide to do likewise."
The chief executive of the Holocaust Educational Trust, Karen Pollock, said: "This definition will leave people in no doubt when a line has been crossed - a crucial step in the fight against anti-Semitism."
Mrs May said that the UK regarded Israel as a "crucial" partner in its future outside the European Union, and would mark "with pride" the centenary of the 1917 Balfour Declaration of British support for a national home for the Jewish people.
She restated UK support for a two-state solution to the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians and warned that the construction of illegal settlements on Palestinian land was "wr ong (and) not conducive to peace and it must stop".
But she hailed Israel as " a thriving democracy, a beacon of tolerance, an engine of enterprise and an example to the rest of the world for overcoming adversity and defying disadvantages".
And she denounced the BDS campaign for boycott, divestment and sanctions against Israel as "wrong (and) unacceptable", adding: "T his Government will have no truck with those who subscribe to it. Our focus is the opposite - on taking our trading and investing relationship with Israel to the next level."

Episode Summary: Hiruma realizes that Eyeshield 21 has good acceleration but bad stamina, so he asks all Deimon students to hunt down Eyeshield 21 or he will spread scandalous information about them. He also promises his Zokugaku slaves that he will release them if they find out who Eyeshield is. Mamori, who also wants to find out Eyeshield's identity, follows him around and is abducted by Hibashira and his gang to be bait for Eyeshield. Sena reveals his identity, but Hiruma makes every Devil Bat member put on #21 uniforms and eyeshields to make Hibashira believe that Sena is a fake. Since Hibashira cannot find out who Eyeshield really is, their slavery is extended for another three months.

THE Kookaburras will play England in the Champions Trophy quarter-finals after an unconvincing 1-0 victory against Pakistan in their final group game.
In a rough match with plenty of niggle, a dogged Pakistan threatened to upset the Kookaburras until a Kieran Govers goal in the 50th minute.
A yellow card to Shafqat Rasool led to an Australian penalty corner and Govers broke an Australian scoring drought of more than 120 minutes with a powerful drag flick.
Pakistan had not beaten Australia at the Champions Trophy since 2002 but in the first half it looked like an upset was brewing.
Pakistan did all the early attacking, and Haseem Khan missed a golden opportunity in the eighth minute when he found himself one on one with keeper George Bazeley, but shot wide.
Simple turnovers in midfield were causing problems for the Kookaburras as their passes were continually intercepted going forward.
Shakeel Abassi earned a penalty corner 19 minutes in but, after a bit of push and shove between he and Govers, Pakistan squandered its first chance of the match from the set play.
Australia had beaten Pakistan 4-2 in a warm-up tournament in Perth last month, but did not show the same impetus in the first half of this match.
A Trent Mitton attempt went just wide with seven minutes left in the half and a Jason Wilson effort on the reverse was blocked just a minute later.
Pakistan's determination was evident when Muhammad Rizwan Senior suffered a stray ball to the face but played on, while Fareed Ahmed was forced from the field after a heavy collision.
The Kookaburras lifted the tempo after Govers' goal but looked bereft of confidence in attack without the pace and finishing skills of the sidelined Simon Orchard.
They manufactured a chance for Jake Wheton in the last 10 minutes and Jamie Dwyer earned another penalty corner but Pakistan goalkeeper Imran Shan defiantly kept Australia from scoring again.
Earlier, India secured top spot in Pool A despite losing 3-2 to Germany, while England and New Zealand drew 1-1.
Belgium scored three goals in eight minutes in the second half against Holland, but lost 5-4.
In tomorrow's other quarter-finals, India - who finished top of Pool A despite a 3-2 loss to Germany - will play Belgium.
Germany plays Pakistan, and the Dutch play New Zealand.

Our first visit to Eleuthera was in 1992. We fell in love with the breathtaking beauty and warm welcoming residents. We knew that Eleuthera was a very special untouched island, and we are excited to open our home to you. We wish you a visit that is filled with much love, laughter, and beautiful memories.
From our family to yours – Welcome to Eleuthera!
Michael and Katy Broderick
p.s. Be sure to…see a sunrise, see a sunset, see the stars at night, walk the beaches, explore, make new friends, read a good book, do absolutely nothing…return again to Eleuthera!
My family had a fantastic week at this house. It is spacious, immaculate, expertly equipped, private, and in the perfect location. We spent time all over the island and the location made our trips extremely convenient. I will bring significantly more food to the island next time because of the homes large fridge / freezer and gas stove. The house is isolated and on a quiet street. We could have asked for a better experience.
Thank you.
Picture perfect in every way! We will be returning for our 3rd stay in the near future!
This place is amazing! I have rented houses many times and I never stayed at a nicer home. Island breeze villa is well named. You feel a breeze through out the whole house. The villa has everything you could want!Amazing comfortable bedding & towels. The kitchen has everything ( I mean everything) and great quality appliances.
The view is gorgeous from every room and you can hear the ocean in bed.
The house is meticulous & clean. The beach is gorgeous and you won't want to leave the house. They even have two phones you can use for local and long distance calls!!! That is such an unexpected amenity.
The people that live here are so friendly kind and warm.
I was so lucky to be here with a wonderful friend and a beautiful home.
You will jump for joy when you walk into the island breeze Villa! I know I did!
My stay at the Island Breeze Villa was no less than fantastic. This home is stunning. It sits on the ocean and my favorite part is the ocean waves lull you to sleep. The tranquility of the setting and friendliness of the Bahamian people made the get away perfection. I would highly recommend the villa for anyone wanting a peaceful and relaxing vacation with luxury accommodations.
My Wife and I really love Eleuthera. Talk about Peace and Quiet, we love it here. This rental was great. We could've had better directions there but once we found the road it was pure magic. The property is beautiful. It's set atop a small cliff like area with about 25 steps down to the beach. On top of the cliff (for lack of a better word) there's a small deck with 2 chaise lounges that were perfect for relaxing, reading, or just sunning. The house has two master suites with outstanding bathrooms. The main area of the house is a wide open space that flowed into a VERY modern kitchen, and a Family Room with a nice sized TV and VERY comfy couches. The kitchen has almost everything you can think of. We do a lot of our own cooking and the quality of the stove, ovens, convention, coffee maker, microwave and that nice big Stainless steel Fridge were super nice. Lots of dishes, pans and even a dishwasher. Out the back door led to another deck that overlook a small pond/lake. There was a BBQ grill, 2 Adirondeck chairs and a table to relax for morning coffees and late afternoon drinks. There's a wrap around porch that has perfect views of the ocean especially during the early morning sunrises (the wife told me). The house is very secluded-perfect for relaxation. My wife and I are in our mid 50's and love to unwind and do as little as we want. This was perfect. Another great part about the area was the ocean breezes. At times the were strong, mostly at night. But that just cooled the house off nicely. We slept with our windows open all night. Matter of fact our windows were open all the time. There's not a lot of crime on the Island. It's super safe.
We went to several beaches. We love Lighthouse beach but the road getting there can be pretty rough. It's well worth the trip. Our other favorite is Rainbow beach and also the Pink sand beach on Harbour Island.
The only disappointing part of our vacation was the first couple of days it was a little cool and overcast. Last year when we went to Eleuthera it was during April and it was a lot warmer and the ocean/Caribbean sea were warmer.
We still had a nice, quiet, peaceful time. I would highly recommend the Villa at Island Breeze.
BTW, I'd change the directions to read that when you turn by the sand store and drive down the road where the paint store, schools, etc, drive until the road ends at a T junction, turn right.....I guess you could add the Big Banyun Tree (wouldn't apply at night).
Thanks Anne - Property Manag
My wife and I stayed in the Villa for Island Breeze for a week in February, 2016 to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Our stay was great. This was our third stay on Eleuthera and by far the best. The Villa is located on a quite stretch of the Atlantic Ocean. Every morning we would get up, exercise on the deck over the beach and take a long beach walk. The swimming and snorkeling from the beach were fantastic. We would occasionally see another couple on the beach but this was rare. The Villa is well designed and equipped. We had everything we needed including a good wifi connection and local telephone service. The bedrooms were very large with ample storage space. The bathrooms were well appointed with a double shower head in the walk-in master bath shower. The house was well supplied with all the bath and kitchen supplies we needed. We did our grocery shopping in Governors Harbor which is 20 minutes north and at Island Farms just south of Palmetto. Excursion to the beaches at Double Bay, Ten Bay and French Leave were easy trips from the villa.
We spent a lot of our time at the Villa and the beach in front of the Villa. It was hard to leave.

Welcome To Mrs. Brown's Grade 3 Classroom Blog
Look here for pictures and information about our classroom
skating with our reading buddies!
The grade 3 students in Mrs. Brown's class and the grade 8 students in Ms. Grodecki's class had a fabulous time this morning skating together! I wonder what our 2 classes can do together next!
building structures
Our new Science unit has us learning about structures. What better way to introduce it then to build a structure with playing cards! :)
We all knew that we could eat our vegetables but did you also know that we can DRINK our vegetables?! Today we harvested our Tower Garden and took those vegtables and made juices with them. Students worked in small groups to create different recipes. Then they brought in extra fruits and vegetable to help bulk up and sweeten up our juices. Then all that was left was to juice and drink. THe students were amazed at how yummy their juices tasted. Check out our pictures to see how our day went!
So did your child come home today telling you that they played with REAL BONES!?! If they did they weren't lying! Hands-on learning is always fun and exciting so we try to do it as often as possible.
Country research project
Check out the countries my students and researched. Maybe you can learn something from them!
learning about soil through art
It's always fun to learn, but when you can learn by being creative it's even more fun. Over the past 2 weeks we have had a local artist visit our classroom to teach us about soil layers through art. The results were amazing!
happy halloween
muffins and books...books and muffins
To help celebrate Education Week, Hawrylak students in grades 3 and under took party in a Muffins and Books morning. Parents and students were invited to come to the school to have a muffin and a juice box (of coffee) and to sit together and read. We had a fabulous turn-out. Thank you to all who were able to attend.
harvest time!
It has been just over a month since we planted the seeds for our Tower Garden and today was the day we got to do our first harvest. We grew different kinds of lettuce and kale this time so what better way to eat them than at a Salad Party! All the students were given a job, whether it was to harvest the salad greens, wash and prepare the salad greens, or set the table. The fourth job was to help bake bannock which we thought was another wonderful treat to have with our salads. The students really enjoyed this day and so did the many parents that came to help. Please enjoy the slide showing exactly how much fun we had!!
happy thanksgiving!
Learning about plants and animals
Today we are showing our learning using a Venn Diagram! We are looking at what both plants and animals need to survive.
Our Tower Garden
The first thing you might be wondering is "What IS a Tower Garden?" Well, if you ask the students in my classroom they will tell you it is a vertical aeroponic growing system. This means that we are growing using air, water, and sunlight but NO SOIL! Our class is one of very few in the city that are getting the opportunity to use this new futuristic way of growing and we get to do it ALL YEAR! Check out the pictures below of us getting the Tower Garden ready. First we take a basket and put a square piece of rockwool in it. The rockwool has a small hole in the top to hold the seeds. We place the seeds in the hole and then cover them with vermiculite. We then take the basket and place it into the tower. Our tower is set on timers so that the water runs for 15 minutes and then switched of for 45. We also have lights on our tower to act as sunlight. The lights are set to shine on the plants for 14 hours a day. You can see our Tower Garden any time as it is located int eh schools Shared Learning Area for all to enjoy!
Welcome Ms. A! She is the new Educational Assistant who is working in our classroom!
Hello! I'm Mrs. Brown and this is my beloved dog Jake! Welcome to my classroom!

p53 mutation in hepatocellular carcinoma after aflatoxin exposure.
Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center.
Mutations of the p53 gene are found in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common form of primary liver cancer. Specific mutations might reflect exposure to specific carcinogens and we have screened HCC samples from patients in 14 different countries to determine the frequency of a hotspot mutation at codon 249 of the tumour suppressor p53 gene. We detected mutations in 17% of tumours (12/72) from four countries in south Africa and the southeast coast of Asia. There was no codon 249 mutation in 95 specimens of HCC from other geographical locations including North America, Europe, Middle East, and Japan. Worldwide, the presence of the codon 249 mutation in HCCs correlated with high risk of exposure to aflatoxins and the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Further studies were completed in two groups of HBV-infected patients at different risks of exposure to aflatoxins. 53% of patients (8/15) from Mozambique at high risk of aflatoxin exposure had a tumour with a codon 249 mutation, in contrast with 8% of patients from Transkei (1/12) who were at low risk. HCC is an endemic disease in Mozambique and accounts for up to two thirds of all tumours in men. A codon 249 mutation of the p53 gene identifies an endemic form of HCC strongly associated with dietary aflatoxin intake.

Presenters/Participating Organizations
Here is a list of the 2017 Jewbilee Presenters. Presenters list for 2018 coming soon!
(Please note this is a partial list and is subject to change)
Session 1 (1:30 – 2:30)
Ian Maksin – Cello Concert.
Having shared the stage with artists such as Andrea Bocelli and Sting, equally fluent in many genres from classical to jazz and world music, Russian-born cellist and composer Ian Maksin has created his own organic and soulful sound blend and developed a unique augmented way of using the cello as a lead and accompanying instrument at the same time. For his 2017 international solo tour, Maksin is shredding everything up from unaccompanied cello suites by J.S. Bach to blues, and from his original music infused with traditional flavors from Russia, Macedonia, Georgia to his own funky takes on songs by Nat King Cole, Bill Withers, Eric Clapton, Jacques Brel, backed up by his powerful one-man-cello-band.
Rabbi Dana Magat – Responding to the Hatred of our Times. CANCELLED
How do we cope with the rise of anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, prejudice and hatred? Is Israel in danger? Are things really as bad as they seem? In this session, we will process how we are feeling and talk about ways to respond to what is happening around us. How does our tradition respond to these threats? We will look to our tradition as well as discuss opportunities to respond to what is happening around us.
Rabbi Joey Felsen– Taking Personal Prayer to a Higher Level.
Join Rabbi Joey Felsen of the Jewish Study Network for an in-depth look at the pinnacle of Jewish prayer, the Amidah. Gain insights as well as practical tools for making your synagogue experience more meaningful and for enhancing your relationship with G-d.
Lewis Aptekar – Book Discussion of Moonglow by Michael Chabon.
Join us in a discussion of Michael Chabon's new book, Moonglow which is described in various places as "a novel," a "memoir" and a "pack of lies." Truth or fiction, won't matter to us as we talk about his book. What will matter is the story we hear from our Jewish progenitors and what stories of ourselves we tell our children and children's children. Even if we can't match Chabon's beautiful use of language we will find plenty of truths and fabrications to describe our Jewish families.
Rabbi Leslie Alexander – Sexuality in Rabbinic Texts.
Rabbi Me'irah Iliinsky – Mapping the Journey of the Mourner.
We are familiar with the idea that the mourner goes through a process after the death of a loved one, but did you know that, in Jewish tradition, the soul does too? Being a rabbi and artist, Rabbi Me'irah created a "map" of the journey of the mourner AND the journey of the soul, set into four periods of Jewish time during the first year of mourning. Be prepared for a visual/experiential/spiritual approach.
Phil Spiegel – How 2,000,000 Jews Regained Their Identity.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Six-Day War. For Jews in the former Soviet Union, this event had enormous significance. It proved that Israel was a viable nation and sparked their interest in learning about Judaism, being Jewish and emigrating to Israel. The class will look at the lives of several Soviet Jews who were inspired by the Israeli victory in 1967 and courageously fought for the right to "become Jews again".
Victoria Tenenbaum – Sleep Challenges for Parents of Young Children
Donna Frankel – Israeli Folk Dancing
Session 2 (2:40 – 3:40)
Shaya Bernstein – The Kabbalah of Jewish Foods.
The Kabbalah of Jewish Foods - exploring various Jewish and biblical foods and their meaning and messages.
Gordon Gladstone – Israel Right Now.
Each week brings a new, confusing and often worrying news from Israel and the greater Middle East. This update on the situation will bring you up to date on the developments inside the Israeli government, the American political scene and the near east.
Interfaith Panel - Learning to Listen: The Role of Interfaith Relations in Healing Our Nation.
Following the elections, it has become clear that Americans on all sides of the debates need to develop the skills and methods for listening to each other and discovering ways to work together to address shared needs. What role can Interfaith dialogue play in making the connections and developing the relationships that can move us beyond hostility and conflict? Rev. Andrew Kille, Chair of of the Silicon Valley Interreligious Council will moderate a panel discussion among members of the SiVIC board: Girish Shah (Jain), Steve Herrera (Catholic), Dolat Bolandi (Zoroastrian), Rev. Joy-Ellen Lipsky (Unitarian Universalist) and Rabbi Hugh Seid-Valencia (Jewish).
Betsy Cohen – An Exploration of Desire in The Song of Songs.
In this discussion, each member will receive a handwritten parchment copy of the Song of Songs, erotic love poetry from the Hebrew Bible. Rabbi Akiba, (ca. 50 – ca 135AD), the founder of Rabbinic Judaism, defended the Song's inclusion in the canon. Not only did he find desire holy, but claimed the Song, an exploration of desire, "the Holiest of Holies." That's impressive!
This expression of human love and passion and has been interpreted in Midrash and commentary for centuries, as love between God and Israel, and between woman and man. We shall read some of the erotic passages in unison. As a psychoanalyst, I have been able to incorporate the Song into my therapeutic practice. We will share how the Song has helped heal people and we shall find our own meanings of the Song of Songs.
Shir Kochavi – Looted Art during World War II and Post-War Restitution Efforts.
The lecture will describe the main art events taking place in Germany between 1933-1945 and their affect on the art world in Europe and around the world, followed by introducing some of the major restitution cases that have taken place since the 1990s.
Rabbi Ilana Baird – Learning with Rabbi Ilana. In Russian
Есть женщины в наших Талмудах
Session 3 (3:50 – 4:50)
Moshe Goodman – The Text of the Heart and the Heart of the Text.
The Text of the Heart and The Heart of the Text: This session will begin with a performance of a monologue based on one of the more heart wrenching human stories in the Hebrew Bible. Following the performance, we will study the relevant biblical text together in order to discover and evaluate the interpretive choices embedded in the performance.
Rabbi Philip Ohriner – Our Inner Impulses: Exploring the Purpose of Power of the Yetzer Hara in early Rabbinic Literature.
How did the rabbis of the talmud and midrash understand the human capacity to act in dissonance with our values and beliefs? How did the rabbis understand the impulse to do so and direct that impulse in positive ways?Join Rabbi Ohriner as we explore an understanding of the Yetzer Hara.
Sarah Lefton – Open Studio with BimBam in Club J.
Join the creative director of BimBam (formerly G-dcast) to contribute to the soundtrack and artwork for a new "music video" for Adon Olam, a liturgical poem that is very familiar to regular synagogue goers. We will explore the themes of this powerful text together, do some expressive painting and finally, record ourselves singing. From these assets, Sarah will produce a video after today's program and launch it on the BimBam YouTube channel. All are welcome...adults as well as families with kids 8+.
Rabbi Katie Mizrahi – Truth and Lies in Scripture, Liturgy and the Media -- a Jewish Take on our Post-Truth Era.
Explore ancient and contemporary texts about the virtues and limits of truth telling. Are there limits to the virtue of honesty? What is the ethical problem with deception? If it's possible to see Truth from different perspectives, how can we stop the spread of misinformation and create a trustworthy public discourse? Text study and discussion led by Rabbi Katie Mizrahi of Or Shalom Jewish Community in San Francisco.
Jacqueline Regev – Not your Grandmother's ADL: Civil Rights Work in 2017.
Learn first-hand how ADL is mobilizing local schools to create communities where there is "No Place for Hate." Description: Utilizing case studies from local communities, Jacqueline Regev, Education Director, will share best practices and real-life strategies that students, parents, and communities can use to disrupt bias-based bullying.
Documentary Presentation – A screening of the documentary film Strangers No More.
A story of welcoming immigrant children. The film is in Hebrew with English subtitles.
Stella Filler – Jewish Mime and Song.
Luba Perlov – About Challah – And Why go Kosher?
Session 4 (5:00 – 6:00)
Rabbi Melanie Aron – A Lesson from History – Is Today's American Politics Unprecedented?
Periodically the United States experiences a wave of populism with a paranoid tinge. The goal is to bring down the elite who are ruining the nations, "to be left alone, but not to leave others alone," as one historian put it. Jonathan Sarna has drawn parallels between our current politics and the "America First" slogans of President Warren G. Harding, while Kenneth Weisbrode examines the role that Poujadism played in the tax revolt and anti-foreigner feelings of the 1950's. Join me as we consider the extent to which our current situation represents a break from the past or a new incarnation of an enduring meme in American politics.
Doug Brook – Rear Pew Mirror
The front row is reserved for the righteous and the pure of heart. Come enjoy reflections from the back row, safely out of earshot from the Torah or rabbi. No Jewish topic is safe, but you'll be safe from lightning bolts. Probably. Doug Brook has been featured humor columnist for Southern Jewish Life magazine for over twenty years. He's artistic director of APJCC's Theatre Chevruta, a longtime synagogue instructor, and writer of such biblical plays as "Original Synergy," "Flood for Thought," "Lot in Life," "Yosef and Sound," "The Big Fish Story," and "What Ever Happened to HanuClaus?"
Donna Frankel – Jewish Communities of India
Rabbi Josh Berkenwald - Vashti vs. Esther: Who is the Greater Feminist?
Modern readers of the Megillah try to redeem Vashti as a proto-feminist hero for standing up for herself and saying "no" to the King. Meanwhile, Esther is critiqued for using her sexuality to manipulate the men around her. But the truth is quite the opposite. Esther is the true hero of the Purim story, shattering the social and political conventions of her day with wisdom and courage.
Come and find out how.
Rabbi Hugh Seid-Valencia – Igniting a Values Conversation.
What does it mean to be a Jewish Community Center that welcomes people of all backgrounds? What does it mean to be in Jewish community at this political and cultural moment-- when many Jewish values suddenly feel countercultural? It means that we organize ourselves around a series of core values that are deeply rooted in Jewish tradition and are directly relevant to all people interested in living engaged lives of meaning and purpose. In this session, we will explore the values conversation currently taking root at the APJCC.
Dror Sinai - "Desert Roots" -- Jewish music from around the world. In Hebrew and English.
Dror Sinai will take us on a relaxing, meditative, trance and joyful tour around the world, singing Jewish songs of various cultures including Israel, Yemen, Morocco,Turkey, Tunisia in Hebrew, Arabic, Aramaic…
While playing hand drums such as Frame Drum, Riq and Darbuka.

Radio legend Sir Terry Wogan has presented his final Radio 2 breakfast show, bowing out after 27 years.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown paid an unexpected on-air tribute to the DJ and famed television presenter, saying he had "shaped the popular imagination of British viewers and listeners"
Brown paid tribute: "Five decades at the very top of British broadcasting is a towering, indeed an unparalleled achievement.
"As you move on from Wake Up To Wogan, I wanted to let you know how very dearly you'll be missed and how delighted we all are you'll be returning with another venture before too long."
Brown's comments were aired during the 08:00 news bulletin to the apparent surprise of Wogan, who responded: "How dare you slip that across me. Are you all trying to make me cry?"
As the programme came to a close, the 71-year-old veteran presenter said: "The years together with you have not only been a pleasure but a privilege.
"You've allowed me to share your lives with you. When you tell me how important I've been in your lives, it's fairly moving. You've been every bit as important in mine.
"If anybody embodies the generous, warm spirit of this country it's you, my listeners.
"Now, I'm not going to pretend that this is not a sad day - you can probably hear it in my voice. I'm going to miss the laughter and the fun of our mornings together.
"I know you're going to welcome Chris Evans with the same generosity of spirit that you've always shown me.
"I'm going to miss you - till we're together again in February. Have a happy Christmas. Thank you. Thank you for being my friend."

February 20, 2006
Hurricane Katrina motivated Senators Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) and Max Baucus (D-Mont.) to propose the Grassley/Baucus bill, which will give $9 billion to 29 states to fund costs related to uninsured evacuees. Unfortunately, this will increase federal spending on Medicaid, and thus contribute to the negative aspects of the program, say Michael Tanner and Michael Cannon of the Cato Institute.
- The money would last for only about five months, after which, states would have to pressure Congress to keep the money flowing.
- The new bill forces states to expand Medicaid eligibility in order to spend all the funds. As a result, some people who are privately insured can enroll in Medicaid.
- New enrollees will be entitled to the full Medicaid package, including services now considered optional, as well as additional new benefits such as broad mental health benefits.
The real purpose of the bill is not just to help with Katrina, but to expand the Medicaid program dramatically, say Tanner and Cannon. An expansion of Medicaid may seem like a good idea to some, but when it comes to high quality and affordable medical care, Medicaid is the problem, not the solution:
- Overwhelming evidence from other nations, and Medicaid itself, shows that government involvement leads to poor-quality medical care.
- As Medicaid grows, it makes private medical care more expensive and even crowds out private health insurance.
- Medicaid creates a serious disincentive to work, save and escape poverty.
