Thank you Kineret Spector for sending in this beautiful inspiring story about the importance of carrying on our wonderful Jewish holidays and traditions! Marlene
The Reason for Everything
It was Sunday night dinner in our Sukkah. Family and good friends totaling 20 were gathered around the table, already a beautiful sight! I beamed at my guests for a minute and thanked everyone for being there, before turning to go in for the soup. Suddenly, my friend Jody's daughter spoke up."I want to say something!" she announced. We all turned to look at Gilda, 6 years old, a normally reserved and serious child, and shy around adults – definitely not one to speak up at a table of 20. But Gilda showed no sign of hesitation as she continued, "I just want to say how happy I am to be here in this Sukkah, and it is so beautiful in here, and I really love it. I am so happy." Her eyes glistened as she looked around the Sukkah.
I was speechless. Years of hosting, cooking, decorating, inviting. Every Shabbat and holiday, as we say, Eem kol ha lev - with our whole heart. And always to a happy, satiated, and appreciative crowd. But Gilda's pure and genuine compliment, in all its simplicity, instantly reminded me (and provided a case in point to my whole family), why we do this at all. For our children. For the next generation of Jews.
Every Shabbat and Holiday is ultimately for them, but especially Sukkot. We know the symbolism of a sukkah and retell it every year. But for children, it's even more than that. It's a fort! A little hut! A small house! An enchanted little getaway. And we get to have this in our driveway every year because we're Jewish! While the Sukkah is being erected, the kids are hard at work at the decoration table, making paper chains, paper lanterns, and welcome signs. They get to decide where it goes. It's their own little Sukkah fort. Truly, the party starts that evening, as it all starts to come together.
For Gilda, the magical appeal of a sukkah may have been just that spark that evoked the gush of appreciation and awareness. I'm so lucky. I'm so happy. I'm Jewish. I'm part of something. Our kids do as we do. We tell them we're Jewish, we model the rituals and tradition, we tell and retell stories of our ancestors, we explain and we teach. But to witness the moment when the first burst of genuine spirituality is stirred in a child – that is just a transcending experience. From oldest to youngest, we were all touched by a little bit of sukkah magic that night.

Thanks Karen Tawil for sharing your GOLD table setting for your holiday table!
I've been getting tired of the same old silver, and I'm so ready for for some matte and polished GOLD inspiration! Marlene
"Hi Marlene, I'm loving all the brushed gold that I've been seeing, so I got in the mood to set my table using gold accessories,which I haven't used in a while. My house is contemporary so a lot of my old things are too traditional. I updated with a few new items, and as they say, "mix the old with the new".
By the way the tablecloths are all custom sizes which my daughter Rachel is selling. I have two square tables and she got me gorgeous 90 by 90 squares which I have a hard time finding in a store. So to all the Jewish Hostesses, bring out your gold table decor, because "Gold is Back"!!! Karen T :-)"

As the weather turns from kind of cold to really chilly, there's nothing we love more than turning to our trusty slow cooker for tonight's heart-warming meal. Whether you call it by its brand name (Crock-Pot) or haven't actually heard of this really handy device, we're here to tell you that it is THE must-buy kitchen tool. There's just something magical about putting all of your ingredients in the pot, setting it to cook for hours, and coming home after work to a house smelling wonderfully like dinner. Oh, and we bet your family will appreciate the easy home-cooked meal, too!
If you're curious (and we know you are), here's what you need to know on how to pick the right one for your family, how to make sure you're using it safely (and it doesn't burn down the house!) and how to convert all of mami's recipes into slow cooker suppers. Plus we've got our 6 favorite slow cooker recipes ever. Now dig in!
1. Slow Cooker: Pick the Right One
How to pick the right one for you
Choosing the right slow cooker for your family is a big deal. If you're cooking for a small brood (think 2-3 people), then it's best to opt for a 3.5 quart pot versus a 6 quart pot that may be best suited for large families. If you're single, you can also try the 1.5 quart kind—but we prefer the 3.5 to make big batches and save them for lunch later on.
2. Slow Cooker: Safety Tips
Slow Cooker safety tips & tricks
Buying a programmable slow cooker, meaning the kind you can set for 6 hours on low and it will automatically switch to the "keep warm" option, is the key to making things easy and safe. If you're concerned about leaving the device on its own, try making your first few meals on a Saturday or Sunday when you are home so that you can test the safety and temperature. In general though, if you buy a good-quality slow cooker from brands such as Cuisinart, Crock-Pot, Hamilton Beach and KitchenAid, your slow cooker is safe. If you're still worried, make sure that the slow cooker is placed on a dry, stable surface and that its' not touching the walls of any other item on your counter.
3. Slow Cooker: Convert Your Traditional Recipes
Converting your traditional recipes
Making your mami's secret recipe for carnitas in the slow cooker is, in fact, possible. It will mean less time for you since putting everything in the slow cooker, setting it and waiting will free up some time for you to clean (or, let's face it, catch up on last week's telenovelas). Try these 5 conversion tips from The Kitchn and the food'll be ready in no time.
4. Slow Cooker: Love the Versatility
Learn to love the versatility
One of the reasons why we're so obsessed with the slow cooker is that it's not just a machine to make soups and stews for your family (though it certainly can do that). Instead, try experimenting with different types of recipes—whether they're for dinner, breakfast (coconut-banana oatmeal, anyone?) or even dessert.
5. Slow Cooker: Our Favorite Latin Slow Cooker Recipes
Our favorite Latin slow cooker suppers
While we love converting some of our traditional meals into slow cooker dinners, we're also big fans of The Latin Kitchen's 6 scrumptious slow cooker recipes. From beef brisket tacos to pork and black beans to roasted pernil with moros, these are the slow cooker suppers we guarantee your family is bound to love.

Nulato Hills, Kuskokwim Mountains, Nushagak-Big River Hills, 55,000 mi2 (142,400 km2)
Land-surface form.--This area includes low mountains and hills interspersed with valleys. Elevations range from 980-1,970 ft (300-600 m) on ridges in the north to 4,920 ft (1,500 m) in the south. Much of the area exhibits glacial features, but in the north only the higher peaks were once covered by glaciers. Deep, narrow valleys are prevalent.
Climate.--The climate is transitional from maritime to extreme continental. Winters are milder and summers cooler than in the interior. The average January temperature is about 4F (-16C), and the average July temperature is just above 50F (10C). The growing season is 4 months. Average annual precipitation is about 16 in (400 mm); precipitation is heaviest in late summer, when there are heavy rains. Snowfall ranges from 59 to 78 in (1,500 to 2,000 mm).
Vegetation.--Black spruce forest vegetation is dominant in this area. Many hills and ridges, however, support only a tundra vegetation consisting of sedges and shrubs. There are forests of white spruce and paper birch on the hills overlooking the Yukon and Kuskokwim Rivers. Alpine meadow vegetation is predominant at higher elevations.
Soils.--The dominant soils are Inceptisols.
Fauna.--The fauna of the lowland forests are similar to those in surrounding tayga regions. There are low to moderate populations of brown bears. River otters are found throughout major river drainages. Northern bog lemmings populate wet alpine and subalpine meadows.
Alpine tundra provides habitat for horned larks, surfbirds, and white-tailed ptarmigan. Sharp-shinned hawks and golden eagles are common avian predators.

More people than ever are living abroad
More people around the world than ever are living abroad and the United States remains the most popular destination, according to new U.N. data released Wednesday.
The U.N. Population Division reported that 232 million people, or 3.2 percent of the world's population, were living outside their homeland in 2013 - a significant increase from the 175 million in 2000 and 154 million in 1990.
"Migration broadens the opportunities available to individuals and is a crucial means of broadening access to resources and reducing poverty," Undersecretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs Wu Hongbo said.
Nearly two-thirds of all international migrants live in Europe and Asia, with Europe hosting 72 million and Asia 71 million in 2013, the U.N. report said.
The new estimates found that developed countries in the north are home to 136 million international migrants, compared to 96 million in the developing south.
Between 1990 and 2013, the north gained a larger number of international migrants than the south. But since 2000, the growth in the south has been more rapid than in the north.
Nonetheless, international migration remains highly concentrated, with half of all international migrants living in 10 countries this year.
The United States hosts the largest number, 45.8 million, and it gained the largest number of international migrants between 1990 and 2013 - nearly 23 million which is equal to one million additional migrants per year, the report said.
Russia was second with 11 million international migrants, followed by Germany with 9.8 million, Saudi Arabia with 9.1 million, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom with 7.8 million, France with 7.4 million, Canada with 7.3 million, and Australia and Spain with 6.5 million, it said.
John Wilmoth, director of the Population Division, said "new sources and destinations of migrants are emerging, and in some cases, countries have become important points of origin, transit and destination simultaneously."
Asia saw the largest increase of international migrants between 2000 and 2013, adding some 20 million migrants, mainly as a result of increasing demand for foreign labor in the oil-producing countries of western Asia and in Southeast Asian countries with rapidly growing economies such as Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand, Wilmoth said.
According to the new data, released ahead of a high-level U.N. event on International Migration and Development on Oct. 3-4, nearly 75 percent of international migrants are of working age, between 20 and 64, and 48 percent are women.

Shengavit settlement
The Shengavit settlement is one of the most significant archaeological monuments in Armenia dating from the early Bronze Age. It is situated in the south-west of Yerevan, on the left bank of the Hrazdan River. The hill occupies an area of 6 acres and lies 30 metres above the level of the river.
Between 1936 and 1938, archaeologist Yevgeny Bayburdyan made observations and conducted excavations excavations at the site ceased for almost two decades. In 1958, archaeological observations and excavations restarted, under the direction of Sandro Sardaryan. Between 1958 and 1980, he excavated the central preserved section of the settlement. Since August 2000, further excavations have taken place, undertaken by a joint Armenian-American archaeological expedition under the direction of archaeologist Hakob Simonyan. These archaeological excavations have shown the settlement was surrounded by a high wall built with rough stones, had an underground, tiled tunnel to the Hrazdan River, and that the tombs had spread outside the wall.
The ancient Shengavit settlement belongs to the period of the primitive communal tribal society. The basic settlement consists of four sequential archaeological and cultural layers, built on top of each other, each measuring four metres deep. These can be classified as follows:
First layer: late Neolithic (3500-3000 BC)
Second layer: early Eneolithic (3000-2700 BC)
Third layer: middle Eneolithic (2600-2300 BC)
Fourth layer: late Eneolithic (2300-2000 BC)
The clay vessels, discovered in the first layer and dating from the late Neolithic period, are roughly decorated on a white surface. Pieces of bowls, cups and plates were likewise located alongside. The objects found from the first layer were primarily made of stone – obsidian, flint and basalt. Also found were roughly-hewn stone axes, and tools made of bone such as needles, heads of spindles and arrowheads, evidencing a developed textile industry. Small and large cattle were kept indicating a cattle breeding industry. Further, the spindle heads discovered in Shengavit provide evidence of a highly-developed textile industry making materials and dresses. During the last excavation, traces of cane mats were also excavated.
To this day, the reasons for the collapse of this early agricultural settlement are subject to discussion and debate among specialists. The majority believe there are three major factors which contributed to the settlement's collapse:
a) ecological changes in the last quarter of the third millennium BC;
b) economic conditions; and
c) ethnic replacements and invasions.
As a result of this, the Shengavit settlement was abandoned by the last quarter of the third millennium BC.
According to archaeological materials, in the late third millennium BC and the first half of the second millennium BC, people occasionally used this abandoned site for graves. Later, in the Middle Ages, a small village was also founded on the site.
On the basis of these excavated materials, the Shengavit Culture-Preserve was opened in 1968 as a branch of the Erebuni Historical & Archaeological Culture-Preserve. In 2003, the museum was renamed the Shengavit Historical & Archaeological-Preserve. Today, some of these items are exhibited in the History Museum of Armenia in Yerevan.
Shengavit museum
The Shengavit branch of the Erebuni Historical & Archaeological Culture-Preserve was founded on May 24, 1968 according to Resolution 225, passed by the Government of the Republic of Armenia. The discoveries from the famous archaeological site of Shengavit, spanning 18 collections, make up an inextricable part of the museum's Historical & Archaeological Culture-Preserve collection.

Fast & Furious 6 held on to its number one berth in a second weekend for Universal while Lionsgate's mystery Now You See Me arrived in second place and Sony had to settle for third with Will and Jaden Smith starrer After Earth.
Fast 6 generated a further $34.5m to propel the running total to $170.4m. The action thriller ranks as the second biggest earner in the franchise and at this rate could overtake the $209.8m set by Fast Five within a couple of weeks.
Lionsgate-Summit's ensemble heist thriller Now You See Me debuted well enough at number two on $28.1m and stars Jesse Eisenberg, Michael Caine, Woody Harrelson and Isla Fisher.
Will Smith is not used to anything other than number one summer launches but the star has been an infrequent sight in recent years – prior to Men In Black 3 last summer he has not been seen since Seven Pounds in 2008 – and it showed as sci-fi After Earth mustered a so-so $27m.
Jaden Smith is the film's real lead and appears on the big screen opposite his father for the second time after The Pursuit Of Happyness in 2006.
Warner Bros' The Hangover Part III pulled off a mighty international launch this weekend, however its North American appeal is not as potent. After two weekends the comedy trilogy finale ranks sixth on $88.1m. 2011's The Hangover Part II finished on $254.5m while the 2009 original ended on $277.3m.
Stablemate The Great Gatsby ranks eighth on a excellent $128.3m after four.
Mud is sticking around and Jeff Nichols' Southern drama starring Matthew McConaughey ranks ninth on $16.9m through Roadside Attractions after six weekends.
In the limited release arena, Sundance premiere The East starring Brit Marling opened well through Fox Searchlight on $75,600 for an $18,900 average while another Park City premiere, The Kings Of Summer, debuted through CBS Films on $58,000 from four for a $14,500 average.
Next weekend's wide releases are Fox comedy The Internship starring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn and Universal's genre thriller The Purge from producer Jason Blum starring Ethan Hawke.

And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God [B'nai Elohim] saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants [Nephilim] in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God [B'nai Elohim] came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
(Genesis 6:1-4 KJV)
The sons of God (B'nai Elohim) is a term that appears throughout the Tanakh (Old Testament). In Genesis and many apocryphal books we read that they "took them wives of all which they chose" from the daughters of men and produced a hybrid offspring known as the Nephilim. This doctrine used to be taught in most seminaries. It is now a doctrine that has gained much interest and debate. The subject of this article is the question of if fallen angels can produce offspring. It is beyond the scope of this article to debate the Nephilim hybrid issue. There are many great resources that debate this issue at length. I suggest Rob Skiba, Michael Hoggard, Chuck Missler, Gary Stearman, Steve Quayle and Tom Horn.
Most of those who are opposed to the fallen angels that sinned and produced offspring use one passage in the Brit Chadashah (New Testament) Book of Matthew which says, "The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him, Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother. Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother: Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh. And last of all the woman died also. Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her. Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living" (Matthew 22:23-32 KJV).
Those who use this passage in the Book of Matthew claim that Yeshua's answer indicates that the angels in heaven are without gender and cannot reproduce. Clearly, this passage does not state that angels are without gender. Nor does it state that they cannot reproduce. To use this passage to suggest that angels are without gender and incapable of procreation also creates another problem. It would suggest that all believers will become "transgender" or "transhuman" after death
Carmen Welker (therefinersfire.org) states that, "Angels are HOLY beings. Sex is not in the equation because they are all about YHWH, not themselves. Sex is a human desire which fulfills the command for mankind to "be fruitful and multiply" (Genesis 1:28). Nowhere in the entire Bible will you see YHWH giving that command to angels, nor do we ever see that the number of angels increases or decreases."
The problem with Carmen Welker's conclusion is that the fallen angel doctrine does not speak of holy angels, it speaks of fallen angels that intentionally sinned against God (YHWH). Furthermore, angels are all masculine (demonstrated later), which is one reason why we never see the number of angels increase. Even the Prophet Daniel distinguished between holy and fallen angels in the interpretation of King Nebuchadnezzar's dream (Daniel 4:1-37).
I will not bring the books of the apocrypha into this article as they are not currently canonized in Scripture in most of the world (although some of them used to be and some of them still are in canonized in parts of the world). There are plenty of additional references throughout the Tanakh and Brit Chadashah that clearly indicate that the fallen angel doctrine is correct and that this is exactly what the Book of Genesis is referring to in the passage (Genesis 6:1-4).
Almost all believers I know believe that the Bible is the inerrant and infallible Word of God. I personally believe this is true as well.
Since we can establish that the Bible is inerrant and infallible, we need look no further than to the canonized Scriptures within the Bible to determine if fallen angels can reproduce. I am using the King James Version throughout this article as it is the "gold standard" among translations in the opinions of most scholars.
In the Book of Genesis, immediately after the fall of man, God passes judgement upon Adam, Eve and Satan in the Garden of Eden. The passage says, "And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed [H2233] and her seed [H2233]; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel" (Genesis 3:14-15 KJV).
This is the first Messianic prophecy in the text of the Bible. The seed of a woman is a reference to the coming Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ). Women have no "seed" and this makes the prophecy clear that the promised Messiah will be born to a virgin. The lexicon clearly defines seed as semen, offspring, descendants, posterity or children. I think it would be fair to include DNA in our definition of seed. Apparently, Satan and fallen angels have seed.
There is no doubt that every reference to angels in Scripture refers to them in the masculine gender. The Greek word for "angel" in the Brit Chadashah, "angelos," is in the masculine form. In fact, the feminine form of "angelos" does not exist. There are three genders in grammar, masculine (he, him, his), feminine (she, her, hers), and neuter (it, its). Angels are never referred to in any gender other than masculine. In the many appearances of angels in the Bible, never is an angel referred to as "she" or "it." Furthermore, when angels did appear, they always appeared dressed as human males (Genesis 18:2; Genesis 18:16; Ezekiel 9:2). No angel ever appeared in Scripture dressed as a female.
There are some that argue that all species reproduce "after their own kind" and that this is a law established by God that cannot be broken like the law of physics. In the first chapter of the Book of Genesis, the phrase "after their kind" appears ten times. God made all plants and animals to naturally reproduce after their kind.
Is there anything in the first chapter of Genesis that says that prevents mankind or spiritual beings from tampering with the natural order? Is there anything that prevents mankind or spiritual beings from forcing things to reproduce in such a way that they will not reproduce after their own kind? Absolutely not, there is nothing stated that prevents mankind from tampering with the natural order or tampering with the way things reproduce.
Today we know that there are many genetic engineering projects with food, animals and humans occurring around the world. Mankind has learned how to genetically engineer living organisms (watermelons, squash, tomatoes, sheep, goats, etc.). Furthermore, these genetically engineered organisms are also capable of reproduction.
The Torah states that, "Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee" (Leviticus 19:19 KJV) and "Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest the fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard, be defiled. Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together. Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen and linen together" (Deuteronomy 22:9-11 KJV).
Living organisms do reproduce after their own kind when left alone, but that is not to say that these organisms cannot be made to not reproduce after their own kind if they are tampered with by genetic engineering. Satan and other fallen angels cannot create matter, they can only manipulate matter.
In conclusion, we have clearly demonstrated that all angels are masculine and (according to Genesis 3:14-15) Satan and fallen angels have "seed" and are capable of procreation.

As you've no doubt heard, Rep. Joe Wilson shouted, "you lie" during Obama's health care speech to a joint session of Congress. He immediately apologized and Obama accepted the apology. End of story, right? No way, the Democrats were determined to cynically milk these two words for their political advantage. First, for the first time in House history, the Democrats wasted legislative time and taxpayer money admonishing Wilson, a totally futile gesture that carries no real punishment.
But wait, there's more. The Democrats weren't satisfied with just an admonishment, no, somewhere along the line 2 + 2 suddenly equaled 652 and "you lie" magically became a racist slur, an opportunity for the Democrats to exercise one of their favorite pastimes, playing the race card, and this time they disgustingly dealt it from the absolute bottom of the deck.
Keep in mind the two words Wilson actually said, "you lie", and then check out this despicable gem from Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Georgia).
Joe Wilson shouts "you lie" at Obama during a speech and that inevitably leads to white folks in white KKK hoods riding through the countryside intimidating black people, that's the logical conclusion, REALLY?
And, not to be outdone, Jimmy Carter, the most ant-Semitic U.S. President in modern history, trots out from under his rock to lay down the royal flush of race cards.
So, in the space of a week, because Democrats can't control themselves when it comes to playing the race card in furtherance of their political goals, we've gone from Joe Wilson shouting "you lie" at Obama, apologizing and having his apology accepted, all the way to most white people in America are racists and don't like Obama just because he's black. Anyone who criticizes Obama is motivated by racism because, you know, it's absurd to think that someone might actually disagree with Obama's policies! Yes, there is racism in this country and it exists in all directions, not only white on black. Blowing Joe Wilson's two word outburst this far out of proportion is absolutely ridiculous, enough is enough already! Even Obama himself thinks this latest Democrat race card game has gone well beyond far enough.
Obama team keeps distance from Carter's charges of racism
On Wednesday, the White House distanced itself from Carter's remarks. "The president does not believe that the criticism comes based on the color of his skin," Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said during a briefing for reporters.
Michael Steele hit the nail on the head.
Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, who is African American, said in a prepared statement: "Characterizing Americans' disapproval of President Obama's policies as being based on race is an outrage and a troubling sign about the lengths Democrats will go to disparage all who disagree with them."

Remember what started all this, Joe Wilson blurting out "you lie" in response to Obama's assertion that the "health care reform" bill wouldn't cover illegal immigrants. Although Wilson's outburst was extremely rude and inappropriate, considering the setting, he was correct, Obama wasn't telling the truth. H.R. 3200 says that illegal immigrants aren't covered, but there's no enforcement mechanism to keep them from receiving the insurance and all the enforcement mechanism amendments the Republicans proposed were voted down by the Democrats. Theoretically, illegal immigrants can't legally receive government health insurance under H.R. 3200, but if there's no way to enforce it by verifying citizenship, what's to stop them? It's like don't ask don't tell, wink wink, nudge nudge, say no more, guarding the hen house blindfolded.
Nothing in health care bill will prevent illegal aliens from seeking coverage
Section 246, convincingly titled "NO FEDERAL PAYMENT FOR UNDOCUMENTED ALIENS", within H.R. 3200 says: "Nothing in this subtitle shall allow Federal payments for affordability credits on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States." Couldn't be clearer right? Wrong!
The Annenberg Public Policy Center dances around to say Obama was correct in his speech when he insisted illegal aliens wouldn't receive coverage. Factcheck.org even refers to the argument: "conservative critics object to a lack of specific enforcement measures in the bill" and then says "Republicans have a point here." Still, factcheck.org ultimately affirms "the president is correct."
However, it turns out that Joe Wilson was right when he blurted out "you lie!" to the president. Republicans certainly have a point – there is no provisioning within the bill that asks would-be members of the public option if they are citizens of the United States. There can be all sorts of sections stating that illegal aliens won't be covered but if there's no enforcement the text is no more than words on a page.
The issue was particularly sensitive to Wilson because in July an amendment was proposed that would have required applicants for subsidized insurance to proof their citizenship. The Democrat majority voted down the amendment and voted instead to appoint a federal official to make up rules that will prevent illegal immigrants from joining the "public option."
That's the extent of enforcement – a vague promise to appoint a government bureaucrat charged with keeping undocumented citizens from enrolling in government-run health care and the text of section 246.
The Congressional Research Service, a division of the Library of Congress charged with thinking proposed policy through before it is enacted, said in mid-July, before the recess and the August town hall outbursts that:
"Under H.R. 3200, a 'Health Insurance Exchange' would begin operation in 2013 and would offer private plans alongside a public option…H.R. 3200 does not contain any restrictions on noncitizens – whether legally or illegally present, or in the United States temporarily or permanently – participating in the Exchange."
The loophole is glaring – so much so that Senate committees are now hard at work trying to "correct" the problem – or perhaps their motivation is to save face for the president. Either way, no details have been provided on just how this will be accomplished.
Oh, and after Wilson's outburst, look what happened, the Democrats suddenly scrambled to include enforcement provisions in the Senate Finance Committee bill that was released today.
Senate committee tackles illegal-immigrant healthcare concerns
Key members of the Senate Finance Committee moved Friday to quell the latest furor over President Obama's healthcare overhaul, discussing added identification and enforcement requirements intended to prevent illegal immigrants from receiving federal benefits.
Committee members ended their closed-door deliberations without reaching agreement on a response, but they are scheduled to work into the weekend.
The concern is whether the proposals being worked out by congressional Democrats with Obama's support would make benefits available directly or indirectly to people who are in the United States illegally.
The controversy centers primarily on plans to provide government funds to help low-income workers get affordable insurance coverage.
Though drafters of the evolving healthcare bills have been considering the issue for months, it was catapulted into the national spotlight Wednesday night during Obama's address to a joint session of Congress.
When the president said that his blueprint would not aid illegal immigrants, Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) shouted, "You lie!" Wilson has since apologized for his breach of congressional courtesy, but the episode touched off a vociferous debate over the issue.
Democrats note that both the House and Senate versions of the bill already contain language that specifically bars illegal immigrants from receiving federal help to purchase healthcare coverage.
Republicans counter that a written ban means little without tough enforcement provisions, which they say Democrats have refused to include. At their meeting Friday, members of the Senate Finance Committee discussed adding enforcement safeguards to their bill, which will be presented as soon as Tuesday.

As it turns out, Joe Wilson yelling "you lie" had absolutely nothing to do with racism and had everything to do with calling Obama out on his false assertion that the proposed health care legislation would exclude illegal aliens from coverage. Granted it was the wrong way to go about it but, guess what, after Wilson's outburst, the issue got enormous attention and the Democrats were forced to include identification and enforcement mechanisms to insure illegal aliens wouldn't be able to obtain coverage, a major victory for taxpayers along the road to one of the biggest government boondoggles of all time, otherwise known as the Democrat plan for health reform.

Basic Requirements Overview
The following information is a brief overview of the basic requirements. Specific information must be obtained by contacting the Building Department.
The Uniform Construction Code (NJAC 5:23)
The purpose of the Uniform Construction code is to encourage innovation and economy in construction by the use of modern technical methods and devices. The Uniform Construction Code also eliminates, restrictive, obsolete, conflicting and unnecessary regulations that tend to increase construction cost. It also insures adequate maintenance of buildings and structures throughout the State to protect the health, safety and welfare of the public.
Plans are required for most applications. Plans must be drawn by a licensed architect or engineer. However, a homeowner can draw plans for their owner-occupied dwelling. For specific information about construction plan requirements, contact the Building Department. A Flood Elevation Certificate is required. A Zoning permit is also required.
Penalty notices shall be sent to a property owner or contractor for: failure to obtain construction permits; occupying a new or altered structure without a certificate of occupancy; giving false information; or failure to comply with a notice issued by the Building Department. Appeals for a notice of penalty or a notice of violation can be brought before the Ocean County Construction Board of Appeals. In the cases where a penalty notice is ignored, the Building Department is forced to issue a summons through the municipal court. The summons is for the collection of the accumulated penalties only, not for the code violation.
Interior Alterations
Plans and Permits are normally required for the alteration of interior spaces. This may consist of: the removal of walls; additions of walls; the renovation of unfinished space; the installation of sheetrock of 25% or more of the wall area of any room; the addition of doors or windows; and the installation of paneling. In general, modifications of plumbing and electrical systems always require permits.
Mechanical Equipment
Mechanical equipment in existing single-family homes, both new installation and replacement, requires permits. Mechanical equipment consists of: boilers, furnaces, hot water heater, air conditioning units, wood stoves, fireplace etc… The installation of appliances must be in conformance with the manufacturer's installation instructions and also the mechanical code. When a gas or oil fired appliance is connected to an existing chimney or vent; the chimney or vent must be certified as to its size, that it is properly lined, and free of obstruction, by the installing contractor. A Flood Elevation Certificate is required. A Zoning permit may also be required.
Smoke Detectors
Smoke detectors save lives. The State of New Jersey requires battery operated or hardwired smoke detectors be installed one on every level as part of every permit issued. On applications for additions to single family homes, the smoke detector requirements are based on the percentage of the addition compared to the area of the largest existing floor of the dwelling. Contact the Building Department for more information.
The requirements for pool barriers and access have been updated as well as the electrical requirements. Additional specific information can be obtained by contacting the Building Department. A Zoning permit is also required.
Decks, new or replacement, must conform to the current Building Codes for structural loads, and life safety requirements such as, guard rails, handrail and stairs. Plans are required with an application. Additional information can be obtained by contacting the Building Department. A Zoning permit is also required.
Sheds do require a building permit, as well as a zoning permit. Contact the Zoning Department. Sheds must be anchored to the ground.
Siding and Roofing
Permits are required for residing if more than 25% of the total wall area is being resided in a twelve-month period. Roofing permits are required for re-roofing if more than 25% of the total roof area of a building is being re-roofed in a twelve-month period.
Tents do require a zoning permit, and any tent in excess of 900 square feet with a side dimension greater than 30' lineal feet shall require a permit from the Fire Official also. An electrical permit shall be required if temporary lights and exit signs are installed.
A zoning permit is required before the installation and/or replacement of any fence in the Borough of Mantoloking.
Modular Temporary Storage Units
A zoning permit is required before the delivery of any Modular Temporary Storage Units (PODS and equivalent) in the Borough of Mantoloking. There is a 30 day time limit for these units.
Steps for Obtaining A Construction Permit
- Determine what prior approvals (if any) are needed by checking with the following:
Ocean County Soil Conservation – 609-971-7002
Zoning Department (Setback Requirements)
Engineer Department (Lot Development Plan/Soils/Driveway, etc.)
- Stop by the Building Department to pick up your Construction Permit Application and forms. You can also pick up various handouts applicable to your job.
- If your application requires various prior approvals, determine whether or not you want a simultaneous review on your various applications.
- Building Department will go through your Construction Permit Application with you so you will know how to fill out your application and what is required for your specific job.

Reasons for Delays in the Permit Process
(Most Common Causes for Delays)
- Not having the required seals by architect, plumber and/or electrician on their required documents.
- Construction plans not showing enough details.
- Construction plans not drawn to scale.
- Plumbing plans do not show riser diagram.
- Changing the nature of work being done in the middle of the review.
- Not replying quickly to the corrections list after the permit review is done. Or having only partial answers instead of replying once to the whole correction list.
- Leaving highlighted areas on the application form blank. The highlighted area is information required for processing of the construction permit.
- Failure in obtaining all prior approvals.
– Zoning Permit (Land Use Department)
– Surface Water Management Plan (Borough Engineer)
– Ocean County Soil Conservation
– Any other approvals that may apply
- True cost of work not on applications. (Cost of material and labor – if material and/or labor is free then the customary cost must be put on the application.)
- Square footage and cubic volume for new construction or an addition is either calculated incorrectly or omitted from the application.
- If you are unsure of the code requirements, hire a professional architect and contractors.

The eye-catching temporary pavilion for the Bavarian State Opera in Munich was designed by the Austrian architectural practice Coop Himmelb(l)au. Its radical facade is made from perforated and close aluminium sheet. Due to the peaked structure it absorbs the sound of the passing traffic and sets a strong contrast to the neo-classical principal building of the opera. The pavilion was designed for this year's Opera Festival which goes on until 31 July 2010.

A new report says men in North Korea are being forced to cut their hair in the fashion of leader Kim Jong Un, but there's reason for suspicion.
A trio of experts interviewed by the Washington Post said they were skeptical of Wednesday's report, which seems to originate with a Radio Free Asia story that's online only in Korean.
Not only does such a diktat not make much sense, the experts said, but also Kim's haircut — which appears to split the difference between a high-top fade and a fauxhawk — is distinctive in his country.
But such stories' allure just underscores how little reliable information the rest of the world has on the reclusive country.
North Korea's over-the-top reverence for its leaders (where else names flowers after them?) and stranglehold on independent news media leave the country ripe for fantastic rumors and help blur the line between rumor, reporting and state propaganda.
Here are three other tales of North Korea's leaders that could be too outlandish to be true.
"Unicorn lair"
Remember the report that North Korean archaeologists had claimed had found a unicorn lair? They hadn't found one, obviously — and never really claimed they had, either, despite an odd story from North Korea's state media. File that report under Unfortunate Mistranslations of State Propaganda.
The "unicorn lair" in question was actually a mistranslation of the name of Kiringul, a historical site associated with the founder of an ancient Korean kingdom.
Essentially, experts told both the Guardian and i09, North Korea was claiming to have discovered that ancient site — and suggesting, in true state propaganda fashion, that North Korea might be the inheritor to that ancient kingdom's greatness, as Foreign Policy magazine explained.
Corpse-eating dogs
It was shocking enough that Kim Jong Un had his own uncle Jang Song Thaek executed, so plenty of news outlets — NBC News among them — also cited a report that the purged uncle, once a close advisor, had been fed alive to 120 hungry dogs.
But the story originated with a single Hong Kong-based newspaper, in a report that didn't cite a source, the Washington Post noted. One U.S. official told NBC News at the time that the report wasn't "ringing any bells here."
It was not picked up by the mainstream South Korean news media, which often does report many other stories out of the North, often citing defectors as sources in light of the northern neighbor's media blackout, The New York Times explained in its Lede blog. Chinese media didn't report it, either, despite their relatively close ties with North Korea, the Washington Post added.
How many holes-in-one?
Then there are the supposed claims that Kim Jong Un's late father, former North Korean leader Kim Jong Il, was some kind of golf prodigy — a narrative that news site NK News calls the "granddaddy" of North Korea rumors.
Of all the fabulous claims about the eccentric former leader, the supposed claims about his prowess at golf are some of the hardest to pin down and trace to their origins.
Some reports have North Korea claiming that Kim recorded five holes-in-one on his first-ever round of golf back in 1994. Other reports say it was 11 holes-in-one. Reports of how many under par his country claimed he putted varied widely, too.
The trouble is, none of the mentions seems to cite an actual source. Instead, stories cite each other or else North Korean media generally. Nothing about the late Kim's golf record can be found on state news agency KCNA's website.

The various sections of Art History Topics focus on different and more narrowly defined themes, rather than a broad historical survey. Topics may include the Art of Egypt, the meeting of Eastern and Western Art, 20th-Century American and European Art, and others. Periodically, a visiting scholar may teach a section on the art, architecture, and archeology of cultures such as those of pre-Columbian Central and South America; the indigenous peoples of North America; and the various societies of Africa, Asia, or the Middle East. The focus of these special sections would include the material artifacts and the interpretations, debates, and methodological approaches to these objects within the literature of the field. All sections of this course present individual topics. Individual course descriptions are available to registering students at http://www.berklee.edu/liberal-arts/courses/liberal-arts-topics-courses.
This course covers the prehistoric to the Gothic period. It is a survey of painting, sculpture, and architecture from prehistory, the ancient Near East, Egypt, Greece, Rome, Byzantium, the early Middle Ages, and the Romanesque and Gothic periods. Slide lectures are supplemented by works viewed at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
This course covers the late Gothic period to the early 20th century. It is a survey of European art from the end of the Middle Ages through the Renaissance, mannerism, the baroque, rococo, neoclassicism, romanticism, realism, impressionism, postimpressionism, and early abstraction; also American art from the colonial period to the early 20th century. Slide lectures are supplemented by works viewed at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.
This course is designed to introduce students to a comprehensive study of the principal thoughts, concepts of beauty, and aesthetics in the art of Japan. The articulation of Japanese art reveals the relevance of the philosophies of Buddhism, Zen tradition, and Daoism. Students explore a sociohistorical approach to the understanding of Japanese art and culture. Students also examine brief histories of Eastern civilizations as frameworks for the understanding of their aesthetic and philosophical concepts as presented in works of art. Students will also compare Japanese works with the Western tradition. In addition, students will relate Japanese art to their own creative practice.
This course exposes students to the dynamic world of theft, forgery, destruction, and the restoration of works of art. Through readings and museum visits, students engage questions of authenticity, ownership, commercialism, and the cultural role of works of art in the world today and throughout history. Students learn how works of art are forged; they also learn the history and theories of museum collection building. In addition, they explore concepts of artistic expression and authenticity. When is a work of art real? What does it mean for art to be forged? Does restoration of art works affect authenticity? Students also explore concepts of and the complex history of art ownership.
This course explores the critical and theoretical approaches to understanding the meanings we make of images, icons, and visual representations. Visual culture refers to what has traditionally been thought of as the fine arts as well as more popular forms of visible media such as comics, advertising, television, film, decorative arts, video, installations, performance art, and digital and new media art. Assignments will be both analytical and creative, incorporating writing, drawing, and collage. Readings and classroom discussions will be supplemented by viewings of Boston art collections. Note: LAHS-231 or LAHS-232 are also recommended as prerequisites but are not required.
This course explores the changing and multiple roles of art and the artist in society as these have evolved from classical antiquity to the contemporary period. We begin by exploring how the Greek and Medieval ideas of the artist as imitator and craftsman were questioned and altered during the Renaissance and later periods, when the Modern idea of the artist as individual creator, and avant-garde figure, began to take hold in Western artistic, philosophical, and political culture. The course places special emphasis on the role of the artist today, by locating a key moment of change in the late eighteenth century, when the French and American revolutions altered the political landscape of the West in fundamental ways by questioning the authority of the church and the monarchical state, and by establishing democratic institutions that, in theory at least, stressed the equality of all individuals. It is out of this crux of political and social change that the avant-garde—and our modern notion of the artist as a kind of free agent, pursuing his/her own creative, social, and political impulses—was born. The texts we will read, and the examples of visual art and music we will explore, span the period from Greek antiquity to contemporary times, and include works by Plato, Aristotle, Leonardo da Vinci, Descartes, Kant, Hegel, Gustave Courbet, Marcel Duchamp, John Cage, Cindy Sherman, and others.
In this course, students will explore and expand their understanding of musical composition, improvisation, and performance by responding musically to works of painting, photography, sculpture, and hybrid works of art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Thoroughly interdisciplinary in approach, this course is conducted as a series of guided conversations centered on existing works of visual art the MFA, in conjunction with in-class discussions of relevant examples drawn from the history of music. These conversations will form a springboard for student musical explorations, to be conducted in a workshop setting in class, and based on works of art at the MFA. Over the course of the semester, each student will have the opportunity to workshop two pieces, based on specifically chosen works from the MFA's collections. Specific composers and artists to be discussed and studied include Franz Liszt, Hector Berlioz, Modest Mussorgsky, Guillaume Dufay, Arnold Schoenberg, John Cage, van Gogh, Rembrandt, Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Andy Warhol, Cindy Sherman, and others.

If Rip Van Winkle were to read A Foreigner Carrying in the Crook of His Arm a Tiny Bomb upon waking, he would most likely shake his head and dismiss it as farce.
Alas, you'll only find this title in the "non-fiction" section of bookstores and libraries; it's published by an esteemed academic press and written by a respected professor of English at an elite American college. Indeed, "truth is stranger than fiction," and "you just can't make this stuff up." (Although, coincidentally, journalist/novelist/poet/professor Amitava Kumar also had a novel – "Nobody Does the Right Thing" – published on the same day as "Foreigner.")
Novel aside, "Foreigner" is part contemporary history, part investigative journalism, part political treatise, part memoir – and an absolute must-read. My greatest fear is that the readers who most need to read this book will not.
Kumar is an excellent storyteller. He's also immensely convincing. Drawing on his vast, voracious knowledge of literature, film, television, and breaking headlines, Kumar makes a case that post-9/11 fear has created a not-so-brave new world of bullies and fools.
Moving fluidly between his adopted US home and his birthplace of India – another country altered by concerns over terrorism – Kumar carefully exposes what he sees as the senseless abuse of power justified by the "war on terror": "[M]uch of my reportage here is in the service of presenting the anti-terrorism state as the biggest bungler," Kumar writes in his acknowledgements as he thanks "the non-experts," "the losers," and "the small people."
Kumar first focuses on two ineffectual men, each of whom he classifies as an "accidental terrorist." He demonstrates in rich detail the ways in which both men were victims of legal entrapment, more guilty of stupidity than actual terrorism, manipulated into crime by others who were mostly concerned with saving themselves in the eyes of an already nervous US government.
The first "accidental terrorist" is Hemant Lakhani, a nearly-70-year-old failed businessman with delusions of grandeur, who was convicted of trying to sell a missile to a would-be terrorist. The missile was a dud, shipped to a New Jersey hotel room by the FBI, and brokered by a "terrorist" who proved to be FBI informant Habib Rehman. Rehman – also a failed businessman – had considerable debts, a self-confessed track record as a liar, and a history of tax evasion. His handsome salary was funded by US taxpayers.
The second terrorist manqué is Shawahar Matin Siraj, a 24-year-old Pakistani American, convicted of conspiring to bomb a NYC subway station. Kumar wryly questions the validity of "prosecut[ing] an individual as a bomber when there is no bomb on the scene." The lead witness against the unsophisticated Siraj – who is caught on tape insisting on "No killing" and wants to "ask [his] mother's permission" – was Osama Eldawoody, an Egyptian-born nuclear engineer. Eldawoody was paid $100,000 by the New York Police Department to spy on fellow mosque-goers in Brooklyn and Staten Island. He became an informant via the FBI who literally arrived at his front door because a neighbor reported "suspicious-looking packages on the doorway" (clothing purchased online). The unemployed Eldawoody just "wanted to help."
Over and again, Kumar attempts to demonstrate that, as a character in Sir David Hare's play "Stuff Happens" proclaims: "On September 11, America changed. Yes. It got much stupider." Hasan Elahi, a California artist and teacher who was detained for questioning and endured a six-month FBI investigation, now uploads a constant stream of location-tracked, time-stamped photographs on his website TrackingTransience.net, in effect creating an irrefutable alibi for himself should he be picked up again.
Graduate student Mohamed Yousry, the court-appointed interpreter in the controversial conviction of blind Egyptian cleric Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman, is serving his one-year-and-eight-months-sentence for having provided "material support" to terrorists by translating Sheik Omar's Arabic words into English for defense attourney Lynne Stewart.
Art professor Steve Kurtz was illegally detained by the FBI on his way to the funeral home to bury his wife and investigated for bioterrorism stemming from a $256 purchase of harmless, legally-purchased bacteria for an art installation, "... and even his wife's body [was] seized."
Again and again, Kumar makes a case that the "red zone of a terrorist threat" has blinded post-9/11 courts to blatant injustice, condemnation without evidence, and even torture: "[T]his new definition of public interest, where the argument is made in terms of national security," writes Kumar, "will trump all other claims every time."
That national security threat at home, Kumar argues, keeps citizens distracted from the "greater horror of the other war [in Iraq] from our eyes." We fail to see "[the] crying girl in front of us ... her dead parents, [her] father's skull collapsed because he has been shot so many times."
For Kumar, our failure to fully process such scenes becomes a "lesson in cultural awareness" : for the Iraqi family, the carnage is murder; for the US military, stopping the unfamiliar vehicle is potential self-preservation.
Kumar sums up: "the larger point is that the war on terror is obscuring from our sight the war in Iraq and its human cost." Then he asks the most important question of all: "In the end ... who will teach the other to be human?"

Recurring Event I Just Want to Watch: Warhol's Film, Video, and Television
The Warhol celebrates Andy Warhol's work in film and video with the inauguration of a long-term exhibition showcasing the largest installation of his media works.
Warhol's most important films, including The Chelsea Girls (1966) and Screen Tests (1964-66), will be continuously projected on more than 20 large screens. Two newly restored films, Face (1965)with Edie Sedgwick and The Velvet Underground in Boston (1967) unseen since the 1960s, will be premiered as part of the installation.
In addition, all of the episodes of Warhol's three television series, Fashion (1979-80), Andy Warhol's T.V. (1980-83), and Andy Warhol's Fifteen Minutes (1985-87), will be simultaneously shown in the galleries contextualized with other little known work including numerous informal Factory Diaries; Warhol's soap opera-like experimental dramas, Vivian's Girls (1973), Phoney (1973), and Fight (1975); the artist's only intentionally-produced piece of "video art," Water, commissioned by Yoko Ono for an exhibition in 1971; and three short comedy pieces broadcast on Saturday Night Live in 1981.
Made possible by a generous gift of equipment from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc., this new installation will allow viewers to experience a comprehensive range of Warhol's influential media work surrounded by his archives, paintings, drawing, photographs, and other art.
Made possible through a generous grant from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc
