I have noticed spire takes up a considerable amount of RAM (around 40-50MB) so spire might be a bit system heavy for iPod touch users
Um duh stay on 5.0.1 cause there is also no jailbreak in this idea kinda pointless article
spire has not been working for me lately. im using assistantconnect and it's loading the token, but when i try to use it all it does is spin. any ideas?
Spire slowed down my iPod Touch like crazy.
It was like after all the tweaks loaded up I only had around 10-15mb RAM left out.
Got rid of it now! Even though the installer was pretty great but Siri still has lot of flaws..
When will there be an unlock???????Hackers are actively working on finding exploits for Apple's newest firmware, iOS 5.1.
You guys NEVER mention that!!!

Did you know?
Elim is surrounded by an extraordinary diversity of rare fynbos plants, many of them medicinal.
The first slave monument in South Africa was built at the Elim Moravian Mission Station, a village owned and managed by the Moravian Church. It is home to 2 500 people, all of them coloured, and most of them of slave descent.
The mission station at Elim was established in 1824, when German missionaries arrived at the Cape.
Biblically, Elim is the place the Israelites rested after crossing the Red Sea. It was a place of cooling waters and palm trees.
In the Cape, Elim was also a refuge, a place of safety, initially for the indigenous Khoi people and later for hundreds of destitute freed slaves.
The Elim Moravian Church was built in 1835, and is one of a few places of worship built in the Cape Dutch style.
The mission station was established by Bishop Hallbeck on May 24, 1824 in what is now the Overberg region of the Western Cape. Fynbos abounds, and fig trees line the entrance to the village.
Elim residents were taught trades and skills by the missionaries. The country's first slave monument was built in 1938, a century after emancipation, in homage to the people who had become the majority of the Elim community.
The monument was "re-unveiled" in 2004 after falling into disrepair in the 1990s. It was rebuilt in time to mark the United Nations declaration that 2004 was the year to celebrate the victory of humanity's struggle against slavery. From 1837 to 1840 the population of Elim doubled from 350 to to 715, and in 1854 it rose to 1 241 as more and more freed slaves sought refuge there.
All three Moravian mission stations, Elim, Genadendal and Mamre, opened their doors to freed slaves. It has been estimated that there were up to 60 000 slaves in the Cape at the time of emancipation on 1 December 1834.
Following their emancipation, many slaves were left destitute by their former masters. Some found refuge at the mission stations, where they were baptised and their names were changed. Each family was given a plot to build their homes, as well as garden plots and a subsidy to start off with.
Many of the cottages are still whitewashed every year, the brilliant white offset by the dark thatch roofs, a skill at which Elim men are still very adept. Their thatching skills are sought the world over.
The working water mill, which used to grind the flour for the local bakery, was restored to its original state and declared a national monument in 1974.
Elim is still owned by the Moravian Church and the village has national heritage status.
Even today whitewashed houses sparkle in the sun, most of the roofs are neatly thatched and all roads, still, lead to the beautiful Moravian Church. The church clock, which is more than 240 years old, was installed in 1914. The clock was built in Germany and was initially installed in a church in Herren, Germany in 1764.
The old Mission Shop has been converted into a museum, filled with hand-crafted pieces and many photographs chronicling the community's history.
A water mill dating back to 1833, boasting the largest wooden water wheel in South Africa, was restored in 1990. The mill can still be used for grinding wheat.
A trip to Elim will not be complete without enjoying the local hospitality at the Old Mill Tearoom. The tearoom forms part of the heritage centre, where visitors can also learn more about the community's history.
Church plays an integral part of life in Elim. Many people who have moved to Cape Town, go back regularly, to spend time with their family or to observe Easter and Christmas. The Moravian Brass Band also has a proud musical tradition.

Anti-Stretch Mark Lotion
Hi guys, I wonder why some anti-stretch mark lotion cannot be used from the beginning of pregnancy, just from 3rd month or 4th month upward. Some product doesn`t even mention what month of pregnancy it can be used. What is the reason behind this? Why can`t it be used from the beginning of pregnancy?
Thank you for contacting Net Wellness. Pregnancy changes a woman's body in many ways including changes to your skin, nails and hair. Your belly and breast will enlarge during pregnancy -
that will cause stretching and may cause red marks. Most all women will develop stretch marks by the third trimester on their belly, bottom or thighs. Creams, lotions and oils are marketed toward preventing or making these go away. There is little evidence that any of these treatments work. Using these products will help your skin to stay soft, but it will not make the marks go away. Most of the marks will fade after birth, but some may remain.
Without knowing the exact product ingredients, it is difficult to make a recommendation. As long as you are not allergic to any of the ingredients in an over-the-counter (without a prescription) product, it should be safe for you to use during your pregnancy. Make sure to check with your obstetrician, pharmacist or nurse mid-wife about a particular product if you have specific concerns.
NetWellness may also have some general information available that you can access through our search feature (choose pregnancy). Feel free to write back if you still have questions or need an explanation.

Bright green and full of goodness, one cup dishes up 30 calories, 2 grams of fiber, 3 grams of protein and more than a day's worth of vitamins C and K. The varieties you'll find at the farmers' market are sweet and more tender than anything at the grocery store. What ever you do – please EAT THE STALKS, they are packed with nutrients and way too delicious to throw away.

Mosaic Birdhouse Black and White Retro by VibrantMosaics at Etsy
This black, white and red 1950-style birdhouse will make those retro birds feel right at home. You know those retro birds – the ones who sing Elvis songs and hang out at the local soda shop. They would love to call this birdhouse home. Just hang this cozy birdhouse on a tree and bring some beautiful color to your yard.

To compare a woman's natural curves to nature makes perfect sense to me. It's exactly what photographer Miguel Reveriego did with stunning model Tara Lynn. In the November 2012 issue of Document Journal you'll find the editorial, Document No. 190-The Landscape of Human Nature.
I know I'm a little late, being that this came out this past November. I just had to share it with you. The photo below is my favorite, you may have seen it on my Tumblr account Chaotic Gaze. Natural beauty at its best. View the rest of them here.
Stated in Document Magazine:
Beauty is more than palettes and brushes. Inspired by Ansel Adams' graphic photographs of nature, contours of the human body represent the textures, colors and moods of the earth's rugged surfaces. Beauty is realized through color and effect, and makeup is left behind.– Beauty Editor Tara Poesy

Dota 2 amateur tournament
Hello there Dotims and Doters,
Dota is a team game played by two teams of five people and involves spending the best part of an hour swearing at pixels.
You may be aware of it.
Dota is also an incredibly popular esport, where - for surprisingly large prizes - two teams of five people spend an hour playing a game exactly nothing like the game you play with your friends.
You may also be aware of this.
I've been playing many hours of Dota in the last six months and I am now good enough to be not very good at all. I've also played enough to know that I will never be a pro-esportsman.
You may have drawn similar conclusions.
I've spent quite a lot of time telling people recently that Dota is like five-aside football. I tell people that it's like spending every night having a kickabout with your mates, except that you're up against a team of genetically-engineered, spetsnaz-trained psychopaths. I tell them that this is a lot of fun.
You may have have your own favourite analogy.
This is a hugely long winded way of saying that I love Dota, I love it as an esport and that I want to organise a tournament just for us amateurs, just like a five-aside football tournament.
Is anyone remotely interested?
My idea is that it will operate as a round robin tournament over a couple of months, with teams gaining points for their wins and, after the full tournament, a champions' knock out tournament for the final winner. I'm also hoping that we can get teams from the RPS and PCG communities.
I'm also super interested to hear from anyone who fancies chancing their hand at some amateur casting.
If you're interested in taking part, give me a shout. My twitter is @tom_obedlam and my steam name is "tom o'bedlam", my avatar is red bear on a yellow background.
I'm hoping they'll be enough interest to start the tournament in February. I'd imagine it goes without saying that there's unlikely to be any kind of prize for the winner, but I'm going to have a bash at it anyway.
(I'm also totally open to any ideas, comments or suggestions on this. I've never organised anything like this before and I'm completely winging it.)
PCG forum thread http://www.pcgamer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24600
Edit : Ok then dotafans, today's update
I've put together a spreadsheet for people to sign their teams up, this is really early as it will be at least a month until the tournament kicks off, but I want to get a good idea of how many teams I'm likely to be accomodating.
The Spreadsheet (for soon it will deserve its own capital letters) has four sections:
1. Team sign up.
This should be self explanatory.
2. Ronins.
This is for players who like the idea of our tournament but don't yet have a team. I encourage people to put their names in here and use this as a bulletin board to find the missing fifth team mate you need or, hell, put together a team of five ronins
3. Casters.
If you fancy casting, put your details in here and I'll work out a way for you gents to cast
4. Admins.
It's been pointed out to me that not everyone who plays Dota online is a "Good Sport". This came as something of a surprise to me. I want this to be a friendly tournament with a ruthlessly competitive streak (emphasis squarely on FRIENDLY though), but this means that I'm going to need a team of admins to help me out and observe the games in a broadcast channel to make sure that people respect pauses for d/cs and are generally friendly.
I'm still trying to work out the details of the tournament structure, how I'll actually use my team of admin warlocks and how many I'll need, but if this is something that you would be interested in, then I'll love you eternally. I have to sleep occasionally.
Fill your boots, you're at your grandmother's house
Edit 2: The Rules Update
The Rules
- Teams consist of at least five and up to seven players. These five to seven players are the only players who will be able to compete for their team. .
- If any player disconnects during a match, the game will be paused (default is F9) until the player has reconnected. Pausing is not used for any other reason and only the admin or caster may resume the match.
- All games will be in Captains Mode and will be played by default on the Western Europe Server, unless the teams captains have agreed with an admin that they will be played on a different server. We want to try to accommodate as many teams as possible, so if you are not in Europe please inform us ASAP so we can work out the best way of achieving this.
- Once confirmed, changes to the timetable can only be made if all parties involved (teams, admin, caster) agree. The timetable must then be updated.
- Captains are responsible for ensuring their team are present. If a team does not have enough players 15 minutes before the game, they must forfeit the match.
- If there is an issue during the game, captains must contact the admin.
- After the match, an admin will update the bracket with the results. Teams are encouraged to screen-cap the final results screen for their own record.
- Team captains must have Skype to contact admins.
The Set up
Captains are responsible for the rounding up of their own teams thirty minutes before the game start time. They will then need to check-in with the match admin to confirm their presence and receive the password for the lobby. Fifteen minutes before the start of the match, both teams will connect to the lobby. At match time the admin will confirm that both teams are ready before launching the match.
Edit 3: The annoucement
The inaugural Absolute Bedlam Amateur Dota 2 Tournament will kick off on the 11th of February. Registration will end at midnight 28th of January.

I will happily run this via/with the RPS Casual DOTA Chums group because we've been thinking about doing exactly the same thing in the next couple of weeks? we could easily get 3-4 teams up I reckon and use the mumble server :)
I'm HexagonalBolts on steam if you want to chat to me about it?

Jacque here, I'd be more than happy to play in an amateur league, and I'm sure most of the more active members of the Casual Dota Chums would be interested, so I'm going to put a link to this on their steam discussion board.

'Tis a grand idea Tom! As the most esteemed Hex just said, I'm sure we can find a lot of interested folks over at Chums. I would certainly be up for it depending on the format and general good natured-ness of it.Easy (nCore) likes Braaaains

I'd join in, though I'd be scared of ruining my friendships with people by failing in a SERIOUS GAME. Though, I could always pull of something incredible and become a hero among DOTA men.
As for amateur casting I hope this sort of thing is acceptable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWAWF-EwlPY We're endearingly inept, you see?
I'm interested.Twitter! Occasional impressions on random sim games.
I'm definitely interested! I've not played much with the chums thus far, but I've played a lot with a few RPSers, mostly the ones over from the unofficial RPS Minecraft server, and I'd definitely be up for helping with some sort of small prize, be it dota keys, a game on steam or whatever, I'd be up for helping setting something up.

Tis a great idea! I'll abstain, though, on account of never having played an online match and not having a team. :P
Hopefully I'll make it to the next RPS Dota group outing.I think of [the Internet] as a grisly raw steak laid out on a porcelain benchtop in the sun, covered in chocolate hazelnut sauce. In the background plays Stardusts Music Sounds Better With You. Theres lots of fog. --tomeoftom
You ruined his point by putting it in context thats cheating -bull0
If I could commit... I would totally be down for casting... Oh, well... Good luck!

Having not played in months and not for more than a few matches total I would be interested. Guess I need to reinstall and relearn the control differences between this and LoL.

Hmm... how amateur do you have to be to qualify? I've been playing for years, yet I still consider myself an amateur - especially since I haven't played much at all (besides at lan parties) before Dota 2, although I'm close too 300h of Dota 2 now. For the most part I know what the heroes do, but I don't play most of them particularly well. I know the items, the terms and all the basics, but lack some awareness and good decision making.
So I guess I'd qualify - as would my brother - but how much is too much? Some of my friends are at 1000+ hours, maybe not really pro, but surely better than me. Could we participate as a team?
Anyway, I'd love to participate if I may. Sounds like a fun event.
Or I could try commentating... We should do a test beforehand to determine if I'm fit I guess.

That's a good question. I don't want to say anyone is excluded, but I will have to have a think about details so we don't get na'vi show up
Casting though, seriously even if you've got the worst stutter in the world like me, give it a go. It'll be great!
I'm going to put a google spread sheet up tomorrow for sign ups

Each organization will receive up to $15,000 to support students doing service-learning projects to benefit wildlife and the environment. The students will address priorities in the Texas Wildlife Action Plan, a blueprint to "keep common species common" and avoid more species from becoming threatened and endangered. Texas is believed to be the first state offering grants for student service projects to support a state wildlife action plan. The grants are being administered by the Texas Center for Service-Learning, made possible with a donation from EnCana Oil & Gas (USA) Inc. to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation. Texas Parks and Wildlife Department scientists met with student-teacher teams on Aug. 14 in Austin, and TPWD experts will continue to guide grant projects as they unfold over the next year. Students will research and define a local environmental issue, investigate public and organizational policies related to the issue, design and implement a service-learning project in collaboration with at least two community partners (including TPWD staff), evaluate and publicize the results to public officials and community members, and develop Web profiles for each project that will be integrated into the TPWD and TxCSL Web sites. Students will likely plan projects this fall and do field work in spring. Earlier this year, EnCana donated $486,000 to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation. The donations supports the Healthy Habitats grants program, plus two other projects-control of giant salvinia and other invasive plants choking Toledo Bend reservoir in East Texas, and facilities for the new Texas Game Warden Training Center in Hamilton County. Since 1991, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation has been the official non-profit partner of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. By bringing together companies, corporations, communities and individuals, the foundation has raised more than $60 million benefiting a wide variety of projects. EnCana is one of North America's largest independent natural gas producers. The company has a long history of supporting conservation and education causes. For the past two years EnCana has been on both the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index and the North American Index. Inclusion in these groups demonstrates high environmental, social, and business standards. The Texas Center for Service-Learning is a statewide initiative of Region 14 Education Service Center and the Texas Education Agency that seeks to improve student achievement through service-learning, the thoughtful integration of community service with academic learning. The center assists students, teachers, administrators, and communities in Texas with training, technical assistance, and resources to develop and strengthen service-learning. It is generously supported by the Learn and Serve America program of the Corporation for National and Community Service. Below are descriptions of grant recipients and their proposed projects, listed by metropolitan area or region. Austin Area Camp Fire USA Balcones Council - Coordinator Contact: Lavert Rodgers, (361) 442-5291, email@example.com -- Camp Fire USA Balcones Council, The Griffin School, and the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center are partnering in a project to eradicate or control invasive species and restore natural habitat along Waller Creek, which flows through urban Austin into the Colorado River. Ambleside School of Fredericksburg - Teacher/Coordinator: Tony Watson, (830) 990-9059, email@example.com -- The future site of the private Ambleside School of Fredericksburg is a 55-acre tract just outside the city on the Pedernales River. Students will transplant trees, forbs, and grasses in the upland pastures; build structures and/or install plants that provide favorable habitat for birds, mammals, butterflies, and hummingbirds; and transplant grasses in the riparian zone along the river to help reduce runoff and improve water filtration in this ecologically sensitive area. Lake Travis High School, Lake Travis ISD -- Teacher/Coordinator: Peter Brunet and Bruce Hall, (512) 350-5122, firstname.lastname@example.com -- Students will examine the relationship between riparian (waterside) zone habitat health and biodiversity, study endangered songbirds and other wildflife, monitor water quality, and provide public environmental education in the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve. Project parters include Travis County and Concordia University. Lockhart Independent School District - Teacher/Coordinator: Jennifer Lickert, (512) 398-0606, email@example.com -- Students from Carver Kindergarten, Plum Creek Elementary, and Lockhart Junior High School will remove non-native plants and replant natives to increase wildlife and plant variety along the Town Branch of Plum Creek, help restore and protect the creek and its wetlands, help reduce runoff and filter out pesticides and fertilizers before they reach the city park pond, restore Blackland Prairie, map area springs, and educate the community about all of these topics. Therapeutic Family Life - Teacher/Coordinator: Leon Smith, (512) 695-4229, firstname.lastname@example.com -- This East Austin-based nonprofit places troubled children in healing settings. The project will focus on grassland habitat deterioration causing the decline of bobwhite quail and other prairie birds. Children will learn to survey rural land and recommend habitat restoration needs, working with several private landowners in Southeast Texas. Project partner is Wildlife Biologist Robert Perez, TPWD quail expert. Dallas Area Benjamin Franklin Middle School, Dallas Independent School District - Teacher/Coordinator: Holly Gentry, (972) 502-7100, firstname.lastname@example.com -- At least 200 school students will help create a school habitat garden using plants native to the area to help restore Blackland Prairie. The garden will conserve water by collecting rain and using it to water the plants, which should also result in less water runoff flooding streets and less pollution ending up in creeks and rivers. Project partners include the Texas AgriLife extension office in Dallas and TPWD Urban Wildlife Biologist Brett Johnson. Dallas Environmental Science Academy, Dallas Independent School District -- Teacher/Coordinator: Brenda Thomas, (972) 794-3950, firstname.lastname@example.com -- This is a Community Sustainability Campaign to educate school students and citizens about air and water quality and pollution, energy alternatives to preserve the natural environment, habitat destruction, overpopulation of certain wildlife species, invasive species and concerns about the native Blackland Prairie. Fort Worth Area Aledo Middle School -- Teacher/Coordinator: Terry Snow, (817) 441-5198, email@example.com -- Dozens of 9th and 8th grade students will conduct native grassland prairie restoration and related conservation education to improve water retention and water quality at Bear Creek Ranch, a 2200-acre private ranch near the school. Project partners include Dixon Water Foundation, Native Prairies Association of Texas, and Fort Worth Nature Center. Fort Worth Country Day School -- Teacher/Coordinator: Perri Carr, (817) 239-3421, firstname.lastname@example.com -- This private school project will conserve and restore a 3-to-5 acre piece of school property which is a hillside fragment of increasingly rare native prairie. The site will soon experience habitat loss due from new highway construction and related development. Students will also demonstrate the benefits of building a green roof using native plants on a small shed.

GLAUCOMA patients in Worcestershire along with their families and carers are invited to a support group in Worcester next week.
The next meeting of the Worcestershire Glaucoma Support Group led by clinical director for ophthalmology at Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust Tarun Sharma will be held from 10am until 1pm on Friday, March 7 at the headquarters of Sight Concern in the Bradbury Centre in Sansome Walk.
Mr Sharma will be discussing new surgical options to treat the condition – which affects about 15,000 across the country – as well as answering patient's questions.
He said: "Receiving a diagnosis for such conditions can instil many worries and concerns in patients and some find it difficult to focus on the questions they need to ask at the time of their consultation in hospital.
"This may lead to problems such as taking their medication incorrectly.
"Previous meetings have proved really successful with good feedback from those who attended.
"The overall aim is to help improve outcomes of glaucoma interventions and improve the quality of life of all glaucoma patients and their relatives."
The free event is supported by Sight Concern and the International Glaucoma Association.

Remove the colons, and that is your wep key.

Here's an example of how to connect to it if DHCP is not working quite right.
If you can't ping Google after that, try doing command #2 twice in a row before moving on to set your IP. My card does that sometimes /shrug.

Construction of a Church in Pakistan
Tuesday, October 23, 2012
Success Story
Thanks to the generosity of ACN's donors, the Catholics of Hasilpur are overjoyed, forthey now have a new parish church.
Hasilpur, in the Diocese of Multan, is not far from the Indian border. When the new nation of Pakistan was born in the year 1947, many Indians came over the new border to live here. Today there are 300 Catholic families living here, most of them extremely poor and earning a precarious living as day laborers. For many years the Catholic faithful here longed for a solid church of their own, since the old mud brick chapel where they used to pray together was built back in 1950and had been badly damaged by the years of heavy rainfall. In 2005, the authorities banned all further use of the building, since it was in imminent danger of collapsing. As a result, the people were obliged to gather out in the open, every Sunday and every Tuesday, for Holy Mass. But the summers here are extremely hot, and the winters can be very cold. And so, on their owninitiative, they began to build a new church.
Sadly, following the catastrophic flooding of 2010, building materials became prohibitively expensive, since people were striving to rebuild their ruined buildings. Finally the parishioners turned to ACN for help. Now their parish church is finished!
There is also another reason for their joy: This year one of their own, a young man from Hasilpur by the name of Benjamin, was ordained to the priesthood. The Diocese of Multan covers an area of over 38,000 square miles, making it larger than Maine; yet it has just 15 diocesan priests.The parish priest in Hasilpur has to minister to 3 parishes, and the distances are considerable. Yet he manages to celebrate Holy Mass every Sunday and every Tuesday in all three parishes. After Mass, which is always well attended, many of the faithful stay on to pray at the Shrine of Our Lady situated in the church grounds. Devotion to the Mother of God is deeply rooted here, and almost every church in Pakistan has a Marian shrine in its grounds where many of the faithful, especially the women and children, stand deep in prayer, both before and after Holy Mass. The grotto of Our Lady belonging to the new church which ACN supported is adorned with ayellow and white Vatican flag, a visible symbol that even here in Hasilpur the people feel themselves a part of the worldwide Catholic Church.
This project is an example of our work. Your donation will be attributed either to this or to another similar project that accords with the pastoral needs that ACN witnesses.

Israeli Terror Attacks: Day 8
Israeli Terror Attacks: Day 8
by Stephen Lendman
What can't go on forever, won't. As long as world leaders let Israel get away with murder, killing Palestinians won't stop.
Wednesday marks Operation Pillar of Cloud day 8. Ceasefire deals don't stop Israel's killing machine. It's a weapon of mass destruction.
It specializes in slaughtering civilians. On November 21, The International Middle East Media Center (IMEMC) headlined "Israeli air force bombs government buildings, media overnight; Israel refuses truce terms" after accepting them.
Overnight bombing targeted civilian sites. Pipelines delivering gas from Egypt were bombed. Gaza City's Yarmouk sports stadium was struck.
Tuesday afternoon, leaflets were dropped. Gaza City area residents were warned to leave their homes. Over 10,000 Palestinians sought shelter in UNWRA schools.
Gaza has no safe havens. During Cast Lead, UN facilities were bombed. On January 6, 2009, missiles and shells targeted a UN school. Hundreds of Palestinians sheltered there. Over 40 were killed. Many others were injured.
UN officials said the school was clearly marked. Its location was reported to Israeli authorities. It had no military significance. Israel deliberately targeted civilians. Most were children. Israel called them terrorists.
Separate same day attacks struck another UNWRA school and a civilian home. Twelve Daya family members were killed. Seven children and three women died. Israel called them Hamas and Islamic Jihad fighters.
On November 21, Gaza City's AFP headquarters was hit. Al Jazeera's office was damaged. Press TV correspondent Akram al-Sattari was injured.
Civilians were targeted near Shafi mosque. No one's sure how many died. Around midday Wednesday, numbers approach 160. Many missing haven't been accounted for.
Dozens more for sure are dead. Others gravely injured will die. Many Palestinians will be maimed for life. Numbers injured top 1,000. It's hard keeping up with total casualties. One by one they mount.
IMEMC said, "only six" Palestinians were "identified as being resistance fighters." Others are civilians. Many are women, children infants, and the elderly.
Al Shifa Hospital staff said most victims admitted are women and children. Nurses never saw so many bombing casualties over an eight-day period.
They're stressed to the limit treating them. Medications and other supplies are running out fast. Life-saving ones have been exhausted. Catastrophic describes conditions they're dealing with.
Israel hijacked the Al-Quds Palestinian satellite channel. Propaganda reports told viewers that Hamas leaders were hiding in sewers like "mice and rats."
Israel bombed media sites multiple times. On Sunday, two buildings were struck. At least six journalists were injured. Al-Quds TV cameraman Khader al-Zahhar lost a leg. Severe injuries required amputation.
On Wednesday, more attacks followed. Israel wants truth silenced. On November 21, the Palestinian Center for Development & Media Freedoms (MADA) said Israel killed Aqsa TV cameramen Salamah and Al-Komi.
They were traveling in a clearly marked Al-Aqsa TV car. Israel willfully targeted them. MADA called killing them a "heinous crime." Over the past decade, Israel murdered 20 regional journalists. Four were killed during Cast Lead. So far, three died during Pillar of Cloud.
MADA demanded an international investigation. It wants Israel held accountable. Impunity encourages more crimes.
Bombing destroyed a Khan Younis police headquarters and nearby buildings. Gaza's Interior Ministry building was destroyed. So was a major bridge linking Gaza City with southern Gaza.
Cyber attacks target Israel. A massive campaign continues. Israel admitted war is being waged on three fronts: on the ground, social networks and cyberspace. Add scoundrel media reports. They're consistently pro-Israeli.
Since November 14, Israeli Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz said over 60 million cyberattacks targeted government web sites. Countermeasures foiled most of them, he claimed.
The online activist group Anonymous said it hacked dozens of Israeli state agency sites and a major bank. It claims 650 were disabled or defaced.
Anonymous #OpIsrael declared cyberwar. It retaliated against Israel's "barbaric, brutal and despicable treatment of the Palestinian people" and for "publicly threaten(ing) to sever all Internet and other telecommunications into and out of Gaza."
"NO ONE shuts down the Internet on our watch," it added. A YouTube video said:
"We call on the Anonymous Collective to hack, deface, docks, hijack, database leak, admin takeover, four oh four and DNS terminate the Israeli Cyberspace by any means necessary."
"To the Israeli Government, Anonymous has grown tired of your bullying, and now you will see the result of your actions. Cyber war has been declared on Israel cyber space and you will see exactly what we are capable of."
Pre-dawn Wednesday, Anonymous hijacked Deputy Prime Minister Silvan Shalom's Twitter account. It tweeted "END THE OCCUPATION. FREE PALESTINE. PALESTINE WE LOVE YOU."
On November 20, Mondoweiss published a letter from Khan Yunis to the world. Maissa Abdul-Halim wrote it. She's an Al-Aqsa University student. She could die any moment, she said. She wanted others to hear her words and act.
"Our blood is being shed every day," she said, "and the world has yet to learn that we are human beings."
November 20 was UN Children's Day. It was day 7 of Israeli terror bombings. Innocent civilians are dying. Many are children. "What crime have they committed to deserve what is happening to them?!!"
"For all the world: we don't need your tears. We can cry all the day ourselves. We need you to act, to act against your governments which support Israel, act now against your silence."
"WE ARE NOT NUMBERS….We are human beings. We have feelings and passions. We have blood. We have hearts in our chests. We have families. We deserve to live just as you do."
Palestinian deaths don't matter. Media scoundrels don't keep count. One Israeli fatality makes headlines. Terrorism, they scream.
Mossad-connected DEBKAfile (DF) headlined "Day 8: Terrorists bomb Tel Aviv bus, again miss Jerusalem."
When Israel terror bombs Gaza, kills civilians, and ruthlessly threatens an entire 1.7 million population, it's called self-defense. When counterattacks kill Jews, it's "terrorism."
On November 21, a Tel Aviv bus was struck. An explosive device may have been placed on board. Haaretz reported at least 21 hurt. Maan News said at least 10. DF said 25, "five seriously." A later DF report said 27, "three" seriously.
IDF spokesman, General Yoav Mordecai, said Cairo talks haven't slowed Israeli attacks and possible ground operation preparations.
Chief of Staff General Benny Gantz said military priorities will continue no matter what happens politically. In other words, diplomacy won't deter Israel's belligerency and occupation harshness.
Peace isn't won on battlefields. It's when both sides prefer dialogue to belligerence. Israel shuns it. Violence and instability serves its imperial agenda.
Peace defeats it. Strategy calls for assuring it doesn't erupt. Bombing continues conflict. Ground operations sustain it longer. On November 20, Israel National News gave Efraim Inbar and Max Singer op-ed space.
Both urge invasion. "A thorough terrorist cleanup is necessary to ensure the Jewish state's ability to stand against the rising tide of Islamist militancy," they said. "Let the international community oppose it as much as they want to."
Confront Hamas "head-on." Do it sooner, not later. Wipe out resistance. Ignore criticism about civilian casualties. Expand the current offensive. "Clear-cut victory needs boots on the ground."
Deterrence will be achieved if Hamas and Islamic Jihad "are decimated….The bottom line is that Israel is surrounded by enemies who will spare no efforts to kill as many Israelis as possible."
It bears repeating. Conflicts beget more of them. An endless cycle of violence is self-destructive. It benefits no one. Peace depends on prioritizing diplomacy over confrontation.
Inbar teaches at Bar-Ilan University. His students should think twice before enrolling in his courses. Singer is Hudson Institute (HI) senior fellow/trustee emeritus. HI is hawkish, neoliberal, and pro-Israeli.
Policies perhaps benefitting them harm most others. Their "bottom line" is one peace advocates should resolutely oppose.
The choice is simple. Get along or risk destroying ourselves. Odds so far look grim.
A Final Comment
Here we go again. At minutes past noon EST, Reuters headlined "Hamas, Israel agree truce: Palestinian source," saying:
An unnamed Palestinian close to Egyptian mediators provided no details. Official confirmation didn't follow. Haaretz said Clinton will announce it.
The Financial Times reported that an unnamed Egyptian official said terms were agreed. It's to take effect at 2PM EST.
Minutes past 1PM EST, Maan News said Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Kamel Amr and Clinton jointly announced it. It's to take effect within the hour.
"These efforts….have resulted in understandings to cease fire and restore calm and halt the bloodshed that the last period has seen," said Amr.
An Israeli statement said:
Netanyahu "spoke a short while ago with President Barack Obama and agreed to his recommendation to give the Egyptian ceasefire proposal a chance, and in this way provide an opportunity to stabilize the situation and calm it before any more forceful action would be necessary."
In other words, Israel reserves the right to resume hostilities any time for any reason or none at all. It'll take full advantage.
Expect little more for Palestinians than short-term conflict cessation. For over 64 years, belligerence has been official Israeli policy. Occupation harshness exceeded 45 years.
Cairo talks changed nothing. Short-term relief excludes fundamental long-term injustices. Palestinian liberation depends on resolving them.

FIREFIGHTERS are to stage another series of strikes starting next week in a long-running row over pensions.
Members of the Fire Brigades Union (FBU) will walk out between midday and 2pm and again between 10.59pm and 11.59pm eight days in a row between Saturday, August 9 and Saturday, August 16.
This is the latest in a long-running campaign against government proposals which union members say could see firefighters forced to work until they are 60 or face dismissal if they cannot meet fitness requirements.
FBU general secretary Matt Wrack described the plans as "absolutely ludicrous".
"This is unsafe and unrealistic for both firefighters and the public," he said.
"We know it and the public know it but the government will not listen to the evidence based case we have made to them".
FBU national officer Sean Starbuck said it was "extremely disappointing" that the union had felt forced to stage more strikes.

As a Basketball Team, being a champion is a title that you have to keep as long as your team exists and to be able to do that you have to be the strongest among your enemies. Every team trains very hard to enhance their skills and to be more competitive but only one of that team will be entitled or awarded as champion.

And the V-Tek™ micromesh lining keeps your hands from getting all clammy and gross. See how that works? Why, it's Bonafide genius!

6/25/12 by Andrew | South Jersey, Philadelphia area.
Yes, I recommend this product.
"The Warrior Bonafide X Glove is an excellent buy.
I chose this glove for a few reasons.
1) The 14" glove has a short open cuff with moderately deep fingers.
2) The fit of the glove combines an old school design with an ergonomic fit.
3) The reinforced protection is excellent.
Also I'd like the say that looks don't matter, but this glove is sharp and still subtle (I have the black on black).
It only took about 30 minutes of wearing them to forget they were even new. I expect to have these gloves for many years."

A Chippenham woman has admitted fraudulently claiming more than £30,000 in benefits.
Georgina Bennett, 42, of Market Place Chippenham, pleaded guilty to making false representations on claim forms for income support, housing benefit and council tax benefit at North West Wiltshire Magistrate's Court last Thursday.
Over a four-year period she failed to declare income from a cleaning company, and that she was in receipt of disability benefit from the state of Guernsey, which she said was a donation for her dog rehabilitation charity.
She was granted unconditional bail and will be sentenced at Swindon Crown Court at a later date.
Anyone with information about suspected benefit fraud can contact Wiltshire Council anonymously on 01249 706256, or at the website www.wiltshire.gov.uk/benefit fraud

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 27/3/2013 (1605 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A former gang member with a criminal record is going back to prison after a jury found him guilty of a brutal rape of a 17-year-old girl in September 2011.
Richard Rondeau, 28, displayed no emotion when the verdict was read out by the jury foreman late Wednesday afternoon -- guilty of all five charges: sexual assault, forcible confinement, choking, uttering threats and assault.
Rondeau's sentencing will take place later this year, after a pre-sentence report is prepared for the court.
The jury spent only one afternoon weighing the evidence, following six days of testimony.
Rondeau had admitted he had sex with the young girl but his defence rested on his claim that it was consensual.
Rondeau claimed the girl made up the story about the attack because she was fearful of reprisal from her boyfriend — a friend of Rondeau's described as a violent member of the Native Syndicate gang who is behind bars — when he found out she had been unfaithful.
Crown prosecutor Daniel Chaput said the defence claim made no sense, explaining that if the girl had wanted to keep an affair quiet all she had to do was to remain silent.
Chaput reminded the jury that Rondeau had repeatedly lied to police when he was being questioned following his arrest, first denying he had any sex with the girl, before coming up with the story he presented to the jury.

First Impressions
Well, this is the start of my fourth week here at MOPA. I must say I am impressed by this museum. Truth is I never had any ambitions of working in a museum. My former world was in the music industry and the main reason I worked there was simply because I love music. And everyone that worked in the music business also loved music.
Throughout my life, I have been a fan of photography as well. When I was a kid I owned a Pentax K1000 all manual 35mm camera (still do actually). I loved it, but my shots never did turn out all that great. Occasionally I would get the image I was hoping for, but it was rare. I would look at other people's photos and wonder how they did it. How come I could not do that? I was always fascinated by great photography.
So when I saw a job opening at MOPA, I figured I had to check it out. And now here I am. What I am thrilled about is the passion that exists here. Much like the music industry, people that work at MOPA really appreciate everything that goes on here – from the exhibitions to the education programs to the films that are shown. It is a positive and energized atmosphere.
Plus I now get to see an incredible range of photographic works. Some, like the Ruud Van Empel show that recently ended, challenge me with their digital manipulation (more on this next time), whereas others, like the Jessica Lange: unseen exhibition going on right now, are more traditional but just as intriguing. In fact, she still shoots with film, a rarity these days and rather impressive.
Although coming to the museum world from the music industry is a bit of a cultural swing, I am excited to see the many different "lens-based" exhibits that MOPA has to offer. I have already seen the creative ideas flowing throughout the halls here and think it is going to be an interesting place to work.
Stay tuned for weekly updates on my random MOPA musings…

From a friend of mine who has flown in that area for many, many years and knows some of the principals:
"I talked to Gene a few years ago and he took me outside the FBO there at MCW and pointed to its path and where it went out'a his sight that night. Spooky! You remember what Waylon J. told Buddy that bothered W. the rest of his life? Well, if you'll remember, Waylon had a cold and he was first gonna go along on that chartered flight to Fargo (remember back then when charter pilots only needed a commercial and didn't need an instrument rating?), in the end decided that Waylon would ride on the old bus (think swapped seats with the the Big Bopper) and Buddy told him something to the effect of "Hope your old bus freezes" and Waylon told Buddy back "And I hope your danged old airplane crashes".
...and, of course, it did.

Just 45 minutes drive from Toowoomba, and 10 minutes from Hampton, the Ravensbourne area features Ravensbourne National Park, two attractive lakes and some very appealing accommodation options.
The beautiful natural landscape and vistas from the eastern escarpment, the Piccabeen palm groves of Ravensbourne National Park, and the rugged scenery of Lake Cressbrook offer opportunities for bushwalking, boating, fishing, bird watching and picnicking.
Ravensbourne National Park is a lush pocket of rainforest, with bushwalks varying from very short to longer hikes. The park preserves one of the few examples of rainforest that originally covered much of the local area. This day-use park has short walks through rainforest and open eucalypt forest, which support an amazing array of native birdlife.
The various walking tracks allow you to view features of the rainforest and open forest. While the walks are short - only one is longer than a kilometre - you can spend a full day exploring the park. You can discover some of the forest's more interesting features on the Cedar-block self-guiding walk. This starts at the picnic area near Gus Beutels Lookout, which provides a panoramic view of the range towards Toowoomba and the Lockyer Valley.
Ravensbourne Escape, Ravensbourne Forest Chalets and Cloudlake Mountain Retreat offer superior accommodation in self-contained houses set in picturesque surrounds.

Sprinkle the shoyu or ume plum vinegar over the tofu, cover and reduce the flame to medium-low. Cook for 5 minutes or until the tofu fluffs up like scrambled eggs. Remove the cover, turn the flame to high, mix in the red pepper, scallions, black pepper and turmeric. Cook another 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently until all liquid from the tofu evaporates.

Corn Estimated Fund Position
Trends – December Contract
Short Term:Down Net Long Futures and Options: -146916
Long Term: Down Change: -6000
Overnight Trade: Z -3 @7:30 AM
The December corn fell to a new low for the move overnight due to the favorable forecasts. The trading funds keeps setting records for the size of their net short position, but we really have no idea how large that position could get. Export sales were ok with old crop showing new cancellations of 27,900 MT and new crop sales of 515,900 MT. With production expectations increasing, the exports are going to have to improve to keep stocks in control. Sell rallies.
Wheat Estimated Fund Position
Trends – September Contract
Short Term: Down Net Long Futures and Options: -74402
Long Term: Down Change: -1000
Overnight Trade: Chicago: U -2 KC: U -1 @7:30 AM
The wheat keeps hanging on, at least is Kansas City. Export sales were good again at 661,400 MT, which is exactly what this market needs to keep separated from the corn market. The September KW is still struggling with trend line resistance, which is just above the market and buyers won't step in aggressively unless we clear some technical hurdles like that. I believe that the biggest problem with the wheat is still the corn.
Soybeans Estimated Fund Position
Trends – August Contract
Short Term: Down Net Long Futures and Options: 67190
Long Term: Down Change: -6000
Overnight Trade: X -21 @7:30 AM
August soybeans are plummeting thanks to falling cash prices. Suddenly we have plenty of soybeans on hand. Export sales were good with 128,300 MT of old crop and 665,000 MT of new crop sales. USDA will have to increase the export estimate for the old crop and probably to new crop as well at some point. The charts look bearish and the November beans look like they are trying to play catch up with the corn. The next downside target is at $12.25.
Live Cattle
Short Term: Up
Long Term: Up
Opening Calls: Mixed
Live cattle futures failed to hold morning gains once again, with the majority of the contracts closing moderately lower. Cash trade developed in Kansas, with about 10,000 head reported at $119. The steady bid at midweek looked supportive until it was accepted by feed yards in the area. Other regions remained quiet, with a majority of northern cattle already mailed in. Texas trade will be important, with smaller show lists and a higher resolve to hold for better money. Cutout values may be bottoming, with higher prices on Wednesday.
Feeder Cattle
Short Term: Up
Long Term: Up
Opening Call: Mixed
Feeder cattle futures took their lead from the live cattle rather than the corn on Wednesday. Futures closed with moderate losses in spite of new contract lows in the corn. Cash index levels fell for the second day in a row, creating more doubt about the August contracting being able to hold its' current premium to the index. Overnight corn values are off another 3-5 cents, with feeders gaining 15-20 points.

Our beautiful boy
Grief is an excrutiatingly awkward place to live. It's like being surrounded on all sides, within an inch of your flesh, by razor sharp iron spikes. It is anvil heavy and has an overwhelming way of convincing you that it is insurmountable. Of all the emotional hollows I have found myself in, grief is the most disturbing. Perhaps mourning is so eerie because you are thrust there by something you cannot control -- death. And you are held hostage by something you cherish -- love.
This day we celebrated his graduating from the DACC Wind Turbine Technician program. One semester he was on the President's List, straight A's. He was looking forward to climbing high in the turbines. You have to be physically fit to perform this task, and he was good at it and enjoyed it.
This was on Brandon's birthday in 2015. Bill and I had just gotten home from Tablerock Lake. Brandon had never driven my dad's SSR. He drove us to the Sidney Dairy Barn and then around the countryside. Let me just say that the mph that night exceeded any that I have experienced thus far!!
I don't even have any words........
Mother's Day 2015. Brandon and Lindsey took me out for lunch. I loved those times so much. It was one of the best Mother's Days ever!!
This was at the Fairmount Quarry where we have a campsite. Brandon was the best tour guide of the Quarry, and Lindsey had asked him to give her friend Courtney a tour on the golf cart. Looks like a good time, huh??
Bean Blossom, IN June 2016 at a bluegrass festival. My great-niece Finley and Brandon had a beautiful bond. This picture melts my heart.
Bluegrass festival in Bean Blossom, June 2016. Brandon asked me to go the outdoor bar with he and Heather. It was raining at the time so I said "Why not?" We were drinking whiskey and lemonade. It was so much fun.

As fashion weeks proliferate around the world (I blame IMG, which alone owns 14 different fashion weeks from Milan to Mumbai), and it gets harder and harder to get excited about them or even remember why we should care, I have been struck by the way, of all the fashion weeks not on the original NY-London-Milan-Paris calendar, Copenhagen Fashion Week alone has both understood and attempted to solve the problem. They've made a big bet on an identity differentiator that – and this is key – actually doesn't have anything to do with design. Think that's ridiculous? it's actually very clever.
