A Palestinian human rights group has gone to the British courts in an effort to force the government to adopt sanctions against Israel.
Al-Haq seeks a ruling from the High Court that British policy towards Israel is in breach of international law.
In an application for a judicial review filed in London on Tuesday, it named Foreign Secretary David Miliband, Business Secretary Lord Mandelson and Defence Secretary John Hutton as defendants.
A local council is looking into concerns raised by parents over the fees being charged by a Jewish nursery.
Barnet Council confirmed it had been contacted by two sets of parents about Rosh Pinah Nursery in Edgware, which charges £950 a term and requires a £500 deposit within two weeks of offering a place.
Pippa Singer, whose son James has been offered a place at the nursery in September, wrote to its chairman of governors on Monday: "We are very concerned, both by the level of fees being charged, and the timescale that payment is due."
The General Teaching Council has dissociated itself from calls to boycott two Israel science days for schoolchildren next month.
Two of the 382 signatories of a letter to the Guardian last week calling on the Science Museum and Manchester's Museum of Science and Industry to cancel the events were described as being from the GTC, an independent body for the teaching profession.
Addressing a barmitzvah boy at the New North London Synagogue on Shabbat, Rabbi Jonathan Wittenberg recalled his trip during the week to West Wales. He had popped in to a local hairdressers' for a beard trim, where underneath the driers were two old dears in curlers, whose conversation went something like this:
"Youngsters grow up so fast these days," said Number One. "They know things at seven that I didn't know until I was 20."
The decision of the Council of Christians and Jews to create three new Jewish presidents is noteworthy for this: it represents growing recognition of the religious diversity of British Jewry.
The interfaith organisation can now muster a minyan of presidents, five Christians and five Jews. But for many years, there was just a single Jewish seat at the top table, exclusively reserved for the Chief Rabbi.
I finally got to Judaism this week in the BBC2 series Around the World in 80 Faiths (currently showing on Monday nights or via BBC iPlayer). It's a religious travelogue fronted by the personable figure of Peter Owen Jones, a wandering, and slightly raddled, Protestant vicar from Sussex.
He wants Israel to disappear; he has questioned the Holocaust; he believes Zionists pull the financial strings in the world. Many Jews would probably rate him public enemy number one. But could President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad be hiding a secret?
Swift action by synagogue members brought a last-minute halt to the deportation of a 62-year-old grandmother to the Democratic Republic of Congo last week.
Marie-Jeanne Elumba Ngolo, from Kinshasa, who has been in the UK for nine years, was a regular visitor to the New North London Synagogue's drop-in centre for asylum-seekers.
But when she was suddenly arrested and told she was being sent back to her homeland, supporters of the centre lobbied the authorities and secured a temporary reprieve.
Leaders of the United Synagogue, Reform, Liberal and Masorti movements have made a fresh pledge of commitment to the Stanmore Accords, the 1998 agreement to avoid infighting and promote co-operation.
The Stanmore Accords recognised that British Jewry was "damaged by infighting and mutual recrimination".
Yet the future of the agreement had been in doubt amid growing dissatisfaction among the non-Orthodox bodies with the progress achieved.
The first national campaign launches next week to persuade Jews to buy fair trade goods.
It has been timed to run during Fairtrade Fortnight, the annual promotion by the Fairtrade Foundation, which labels approved products from Third World exporters.
The campaign has the backing of a wide coalition of groups across the religious spectrum, including the United Synagogue, the Reform, Liberal and Masorti movements, the UJIA, the Jewish Community Centre (JCC), the Board of Deputies, Tzedek and the Pears Foundation.
I don't think we should be unduly concerned about the latest missionary talk coming out of the Church of England. It is an axiom of traditional Christian belief that Jesus uniquely represents the fulfilment of messianic promise: and you can no more expect traditional Christians to resile from it than traditional Jews to stop saying asher bachar banu micol ha'amim ("who has chosen us from all peoples").
The electoral success of Avigdor Lieberman's right-wing party, Yisrael Beiteinu (Israel, Our Home) in Tuesday's Israeli elections has caused consternation among British Jews.
The party emerged as Israel's third most popular, winning a projected 15 seats. It wants a compulsory oath of loyalty by all Israeli citizens and the transfer of heavily populated Arab areas of Israel to the Palestinian Authority in return for the annexation of West Bank settlements.
The BBC is under new pressure to publish a five-year-old report into the fairness of its Middle East coverage after a decision this week by the Law Lords.
Steven Sugar, who has been campaigning for four years for the corporation to disclose the Balen Report under the Freedom of Information Act, overturned one of the main obstacles against its release.
After his 3-2 victory in the Lords, Mr Sugar, a commercial solicitor from London, said that there was now a strong case for issuing the report — written by the senior BBC editorial adviser, Malcolm Balen.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office remained tight-lipped this week after the arrest of a senior official for an alleged antisemitic outburst.
Rowan Laxton, head of its South Asia desk, reportedly shouted "F*** Jews, f*** Israelis", after watching pictures of Israeli action in Gaza on TV last month. He allegedly made his outburst while exercising in the gym of the London Business School.
The diplomat denied making anti-Jewish remarks, according to the Daily Mail, which had reported the allegations.
The Church of England has rejected claims from the Palestine Solidarity Campaign that it had withdrawn investments from an international corporation as a protest against Israel.
Pro-Palestinian campaigners have made several attempts to persuade the Church to pull out of the engineering firm Caterpillar, saying that the company's bulldozers were used by Israel to support the occupation of the West Bank.
But a Church spokesman insisted that a decision, taken in October, to sell its stake in Caterpillar was made on "financial" and not ethical investment grounds.
"You are leading the Crime Scene Investigation Team to investigate the first murder in the history of humanity," the students are told.
A class for trainee detectives, perhaps? Not quite. It's the opening of a pilot programme about Cain and Abel for secondary schools — part of a project intended to transform Jewish studies teaching in the UK.
The United Jewish Israel Appeal and the United Synagogue's Agency for Jewish Education are hoping to create a national Jewish studies curriculum in mainstream Orthodox schools for children from five to 18.
A renowned international philatelist who died in London last year has left his entire stamp collection to two Israeli charities.
Sotheby's is to auction the collection, worth around £500,000, bequeathed by David Barton to the Weizmann Institute and Shaare Zedek Medical Centre.
Mr Barton, who died aged 67 in March, was a scientist at Westminster University and a member of the Liberal Jewish Synagogue, St John's Wood. He left his entire estate, of which the stamp collection is the centrepiece, to the two charities. The auction is on March 6.
If you are looking for a novel half-term activity, then it would be hard to beat the ancient art of demon-trapping. On Tuesday and Thursday next week, the British Museum in London, in association with the Jewish Museum, is running family workshops where you can make an incantation bowl like the ones used by our Babylonian ancestors to keep unwanted spirits at bay.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, briefly alluded to recent events in Gaza in his presidential address to the Church of England Synod today. This is what he had to say:
Here's one reason why some Christians perhaps struggle to understand Jewish identification with Israel. It's a short passage (para 81) from a report on interfaith relations and Christian mission due to be discussed at the Church of England Synod on Thursday. I should add the context is nothing to do with Jews and Israel but it is revealing, nonetheless:

Utah, USU game to debut college football coverage on new Fox Sports 1 network
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
WALNUT CREEK, Calif. — Pac-12 officials announced Wednesday morning that the Pac-12 Networks, ESPN and FOX will combine to televise the entire 80-game 2013 Pac-12 home football schedule. The Pac-12 Networks will air 35 Pac-12 home games, while ESPN and FOX will televise a total of 45 games from Pac-12 sites, including the Pac-12 Championship Game.
The networks announced their picks for the first three weeks of the 2013 season, in addition to all Thursday and Friday games hosted by Pac-12 schools.
Utah's season-opener against Utah State, set for Thursday, Aug. 29, will kick off at 6 p.m. MT and will mark the first college football game broadcast on FOX Sports 1, FOX's new national, multi-sport network. FOX Sports 1 will replace what is currently called the Speed Channel in the cable and satellite lineups in August.
The kick time and networks for three other Utah home games was also revealed: Weber State on Sept. 7 (noon/Pac-12 Networks); Oregon State on Sept. 14 (8 p.m./Fox Sports 1) and UCLA on Thursday, Oct. 3 (8 p.m./FOX Sports 1).
All remaining television selections and start times for games hosted by Pac-12 institutions will be announced 12 or six days in advance. Non-conference road game times and TV will be released by those institutions or conferences, including Utah's Sept. 21 game at BYU. The expectation is that every Pac-12 football game will be televised this season.
"Today's announcement assures Pac-12 fans will once again enjoy the best television coverage of their favorite teams," said Commissioner Larry Scott in a released statement. "Through Pac-12 Networks, and our partners ESPN and FOX, all 80 Pac-12 home games will be available to passionate Pac-12 fans all across the country."

By Jeanine Prezioso
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Enbridge Energy Partners said it may be forced to shut down an 80,000 barrel-per-day (bpd) oil-loading rail terminal in North Dakota unless the amount of potentially deadly hydrogen sulfide in crude oil delivered to the facility can be reduced.
Last week, Enbridge asked for a ruling in one day from the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to restrict the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the delivered crude. That request came after a very large concentration of the gas was discovered in a tank at Berthold, North Dakota, on May 5.
Plains Marketing, part of Plains All American Pipeline LP, objected to Enbridge's request and asked FERC to reject it. The company ships crude oil on Enbridge's North Dakota system and into the Enbridge rail terminal.
In a filing late on Tuesday, Enbridge countered Plains' objections, arguing that without the new limits its employees who stand on top of rail tank cars to pump crude at its terminal could be exposed to harmful vapors.
In small doses, hydrogen sulfide will irritate eyes, nose and throat, the Enbridge filing said. But the company said it found 1,200 ppm (parts per million) in one of its tanks.
"Exposure at 50 ppm or above could cause shock, convulsions, coma or death," Enbridge said in the filing, noting that at levels above 200 ppm, "respiratory failure can occur within seconds after only a few inhalations."
The company is seeking to limit the amount of the harmful gas in the delivered crude to 5 ppm. Other pipeline companies have a threshold of 10 ppm, Plains argued.
"....if the hydrogen sulfide continues to be present at the levels found on May 5, 2013, the downstream rail facility served by Enbridge North Dakota's Berthold terminal would have to shut down its rail facility with 80,000 barrels a day of capacity," Enbridge said in the filing.
Tesoro High Plains Pipeline Co, which sits downstream of the Enbridge North Dakota system, said last year it would reject any crude with hydrogen sulfide content greater than 5 ppm, Enbridge noted.
Rail shipment of crude has become an option for moving oil out of high production basins with little pipeline access. It has added to the recent narrowing of the spread, or price differential, between the benchmark U.S. crude, West Texas Intermediate, and global crude oil benchmark Brent, to its smallest range in more than two years.
Phillips 66 signed up in March to ship 40,000 barrels per day of crude by rail from the Enbridge Berthold terminal.
North Dakota oil production hit a new high in March at 782,800 barrels a day, state government data showed on Wednesday.

August catch-up: architecture, suitcases and 'pathetic figures'
Our political columnist rounds up things of interest that you may have missed
1. Here is the house where Sir Basil Spence lived, in Islington, north London. The blue plaque is his. He is the chap who gave us the old Home Office building in Petty France, Kensington Town Hall and Hutchesontown C, the Gorbals, Glasgow, and who is therefore a leading nominee for the Dead Prize for design awfulness, about which I wrote yesterday. Thanks to Ken Wing for the information and the photo.
2. The funniest article about architecture that you are likely to read this week is this, Great Mistakes in English Medieval Architecture, by James Alexander Cameron. Thanks to Ian Leslie.
3. Two good articles on British anti-Semitism yesterday, from David Aaronovitch in the Jewish Chronicle ("Jewish lobby? Great idea, when does it start?") and Danny Finkelstein in The Times (pay wall). They both mention the "suitcase" but they both dismiss it. Here is Finkelstein's conclusion:
"This is a great country to live in and in many ways it is getting better. After all, Sainsbury's in Holborn even has a kosher food counter that it can close down. Yet most of us Jews, wherever we are in the world, have a niggling feeling that perhaps it might be a good idea to keep a suitcase packed, and many of us have had, at least once, a conversation about where we would go if we had to.
"I don't have such a suitcase. I won't need it, I know I won't. But If I told you that I didn't understand it, I'd be lying."
4. And two good articles on British jihadis. Shiraz Maher in the Daily Mail on how one person goes to Syria or Iraq and then persuades friends back home to join them.
And Mehdi Hasan in Huffington Post says that jihadis are disturbed young men for whom a perverted and politicised form of Islam acts as an "emotional vehicle". He argues that jihadism should not be seen as an extreme or ultra-devout form of Islam. He quotes Chris Morris, "Terrorism is about ideology, but it's also about berks," and comments:
"Berks, not martyrs. 'Pathetic figures', to quote the former MI6 chief Richard Dearlove, not holy warriors. If we want to tackle jihadism, we need to stop exaggerating the threat these young men pose and giving them the oxygen of publicity they crave, and start highlighting how so many of them lead decidedly un-Islamic lives."
5. Another fine question answered by What If? "If I shot an infinitely strong laser beam into the sky at a random point, how much damage would it do?" Part of the answer was that it might settle an old argument:
6. This has been knocking around Twitter for six months now, but has only just swum across my timeline. From Ben (@0point5twins):

Former Ute, St. Louis Cardinal Larry Wilson to be honored in hometown
Deseret News archive
CANTON, Ohio — Former Utah Ute and pro football standout Larry Wilson will be recognized by the Pro Football Hall of Fame and Allstate Insurance Company in Rigby, Idaho on March 29, as part of "Hometown Hall of Famers," a national program honoring the hometown roots of the sport's greatest players with special ceremonies and plaque dedication events in local communities.
An eight-time Pro Bowl selection as free safety for the St. Louis Cardinals, Wilson will be presented with his "Hometown Hall of Famer" plaque.
Wilson played both offense and defense at Utah before he was drafted in the seventh round by the Cardinals. During his 13-year professional career, Wilson grabbed 52 interceptions and 14 fumble recoveries.
Wilson was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1978.

What every woman should know about long-term care
(NewsUSA) - With women generally outliving men, planning for long-term care becomes more urgent for them in their pre-retirement years. After all, while longevity definitely has its upside -- including more time to enjoy travel and family -- there's no denying its biggest potential downside: the increased risk of health problems that can make caring for oneself difficult.
Today, seven in 10 nursing home residents are women.
They also represent a whopping 76 percent of assisted living residents, according to the latest statistics, and two-thirds of all home-care recipients.
And that care isn't necessarily what many would consider "affordable" -- unless you perhaps have the opportunity to enroll in the likes of the Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program (FLTCIP).
How Will You Pay for Care?
The most recent John Hancock Cost of Care Study puts the national average cost of a licensed home health aide at $20 per hour, with private and semiprivate nursing home rooms going for $235 and $207, respectively, a day.
Those costs aren't generally covered by health plans such as Medicare, the Defense Department's TRICARE, TRICARE for Life, or even the regular Federal Employees Health Benefits Program.
The Advantages of the FLTCIP
Established by an act of Congress in 2000 and overseen by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, the program is tailored exclusively to meet the budgetary and lifestyle needs of what's referred to as "the federal family."

evas_textblock_cursor_word_end do not move cursor to word's end instead it
moves it to a character before.
for eg: if "wonderful" is the word and evas_textblock_cursor_word_end is
used to move cursor to end of the word and similarly
evas_textblock_cursor_word_start is used to move the cursor to start of
now when text between these two cursors is taken the result is "wonderfu"
instead of wonderful.

* status: new => closed

Yeah, because evas_textblock_cursor_word_end makes the cursor point to the
last character in the word, if you want to do selection, you probably need
to call cursor_char_next afterwards. See edje_entry.c:1265.
Even if I wanted to change this behaviour, I couldn't as it's an already
released API.

(photo credit:Oklahoma State Legislarure)
NEW YORK – A local Republican lawmaker in Oklahoma received national attention
after using the term "Jew me down" while speaking about small business owners to
his colleagues.The phrase, objectively characterized as anti-Semitic,
refers to age-old stereotypes of Jews as cheap moneymen, haggling for lower
prices.Representative Dennis Johnson, co-majority leader of the Oklahoma
House of Representatives, was arguing during a floor debate last week that the
quality of service was key to the success of small businesses, before noting
that some customers "try to Jew me down" on pricing, in his own experience,
according to The Tulsa World.Johnson earned chuckles from his fellow
lawmakers as he issued a curt apology just seconds later, when an aide handed
him a note pointing out the indiscretion."I apologize to the Jews," he
said. "They're good small businessmen as well."After the story gained
national traction, Johnson expanded on his apology in the Oklahoman newspaper,
saying that the slur came from the "wrinkles of [his] brain" and that he would
never say it again.Johnson collected $29,361 in donations in 2010 when
he was up for reelection. One of his largest benefactors was former vice
presidential nominee Paul Ryan's political action committee, Prosperity
PAC.The state lawmaker earned the votes of just under 10,000 people– a
near two-thirds majority in the election.

Mayor Menino Has a Brand New Job At Boston University—And a Customized Cane
He talked about both of them at Boston University, where he will soon begin working.
Mayor Tom Menino had his pick of educational institutions where he could have worked after his 20-year stint as an elected official, but he picked Boston University, where he will become the co-director of the Initiative on Cities.
"I wanted to stay right here in Boston," Menino said at a press conference Wednesday, where he quipped that he "didn't have a passport" to cross the river to get to Harvard.
While people have been joking that Menino will now be known as "professor," rather than mayor, he won't be picking up chalk (do they still use that in schools?) when working with students at BU.
Instead, he will have an open-door policy at his office on Bay State Road and will make frequent appearances in the classroom setting to talk about urban initiatives and urban growth.¬Ý'ÄúIf they want me to go to classes, I'Äôll go to classes … I'Äôm in the business to make a difference in peoples'Äô lives. That'Äôs what it'Äôs all about,'Äù Menino said, sitting alongside BU president Robert Brown.
Menino'Äôs role, which officially starts in February, will be co-directed by¬ÝGraham Wilson, chairman of the school's political science department. The aim of the project is to connect¬Ýpolicymakers, residents from other cities, and examine the development of infrastructure and community services, Brown said.
When asked why Menino was specifically offered the role as director of the Initiative on Cities, Brown said the mayor has an ability to bring elected officials from around the country together to share ideas about urban mechanics.¬Ý'ÄúThe mayor is a great convener. He is great at bringing cities together,'Äù he said.
Until he gets situated at his new digs, moving from City Hall'Äîwhere he admittedly didn'Äôt spend much time behind a desk'Äîto his new office, Menino will work in conjunction with the university to prepare for the position.¬Ý'ÄúI won'Äôt sit around until then,'Äù said Menino.
His new job wasn't the only thing Menino was flaunting during the announcement at BU on Wednesday. Still reeling from a Red Sox World Series win here in Boston, the mayor was getting around with a brand new cane that was shaped like a Louisville Slugger baseball bat. The bat, given to him by close friends, has each Red Sox World Series win engraved on the base. Menino, who swapped out his regular cane for the new customized bat on Sunday, was happy to show it off.
"Here you go buddy," he said holding it up for photographers. "A friend of mine gave it to me."
New cane. New job. Same Menino.
