The parliamentary memo described Dagamseh as a "hero," calling for a special pardon to release him.
This is yet another reminder that meaningful peace of any kind is utterly impossible. The issue isn't territory. It's bone deep hatred to a degree that is inconceivable among normal human beings.
Peace is impossible.
The Island of Peace massacre was a Mass murder attack that occurred at the Island of Peace site in Naharayim on March 13, 1997 in which Ahmed Daqamseh, a Jordanian soldier opened fire at a large group of Israeli schoolgirls from the AMIT Fuerst School in Beit Shemesh who were on a class field trip, killing seven of them and injuring six others.
The shooter, who expressed pride for his actions, was imprisoned by Jordanian authorities, but was later called a "hero" by the Jordanian Justice Minister and Parliament, who called for his release.
Speaking on Al Jazeera in May 2001, Ahmed Daqamseh's mother said, "I am proud of my son, and I hold my head high. My son did a heroic deed and has pleased Allah and his own conscience. My son lifts my head and the head of the entire Arab and Islamic nation. I am proud of any Muslim who does what Ahmad did.
"When my son went to prison, they asked him: 'Ahmad, do you regret it?' He answered: 'I have no regrets.' He treated everyone to coffee, honored all the other prisoners, and said: The only thing that I am angry about is the gun, which did not work properly. Otherwise I would have killed all of the passengers on the bus."
In an interview Daqamseh gave in 2004 to Jordanian weekly a-Shahed, he expressed pride in his actions and said that "if I could return to that moment, I'd behave exactly the same way. Every day that passes, I grow stronger in the belief that what I did was my duty."
But that's just the killer and his mother talking. They don't represent a larger segment of Jordanian society. Right? Wrong.
In February 2011, Jordanian Justice Minister Hussein Mjali, who previously served as Daqamseh's defense lawyer during the 1997 trial, called Ahmed Daqamseh a hero and added that "if a Jew murdered Arabs, they'd [the Israelis] build him a statue."
An overwhelming 110 members of the Jordanian House of Representatives signed a petition demanding a pardon for a Jordanian soldier who shot and killed seven Israeli schoolgirls in 1997.
That's 110 out of 120. As close to unanimous as you can get in the lower house of Jordan's parliament.
The parliamentary memo described Dagamseh as a "hero," calling for a special pardon to release him.
Maxims added by the MPs themselves included "We are all Ahmed Daqamseh", "pardon based on justice" and "freedom for the soldier hero."
The effort is led by Ali Sneid, briefly a leftist hero.
Statements like these give some of the flavor of the political rhetoric by Islamists in Jordan.
"Not only does the Jordanian regime protect the Jewish entity usurper and maintains it by making our sons in the military border guards for this entity artificially on the land of Muslims, but beyond that to provide full protection for the herds of the brothers of apes and pigs that roam our land.
"Making of your sons the servants and guardians of those who humiliated Allah who created the Jews as brothers of monkeys, makes the blood of your sons worthless.
"We have described the outrage previously done by the (king) to the soldier-hero Ahmed Daqamseh that and disgrace to the Jordanian Armed Forces by kneeling on his knees at the feet Jews (the families of the murdered girls), comforting and apologizing, and then sentenced that hero to life imprisonment."
Peace. Impossible.

Jennie Garth: 'Being self-conscious is sort of a rite of passage'
By Molly McGonigle
Ever since her claim to fame as Kelly Taylor on the original "90210," Jennie Garth has been a style and pop culture icon for girls everywhere. And now as a mom, Garth is using her style knowledge to encourage kids to have positive self-esteem, something she admits is not always easy. The actress chatted with Wonderwall about back-to-school fashion trends, raising her kids with "Twilight"'s Peter Facinelli and why having a good smile is so important.
Wonderwall: Tell us a little bit about your campaign with the American Association of Orthodontists.
Jennie Garth: Well I'm here in New York with my daughter and were hosting the the Style 'N Smile fashion show which is hosted by the American Association of Orthodontists. And it's all about promoting self-esteem and displaying the latest back-to-school fashions. And also the most important fashion trend, the beautiful, healthy smile that never goes out of style.
RELATED: Read more tidbits on Jennie Garth
WW: You were still pretty young on the original "90210." Were you ever self-conscious about your looks or teeth?
JG: Yes, unfortunately, being self-conscious is sort of a rite of passage. It's something we all deal with. And even when you're more older I think that when we look in the mirror and there's something we don't like, we think about it. That's why giving children and young people the opportunity to go see an orthodontist and improve their smile is so important. It really goes hand in hand with self-esteem. Because when you meet someone your smile is the first thing they see. And a lot of people go at great lengths to hide their smiles and they're embarrassed by their teeth. There are lots of new options out there for braces and the cost of braces. Things are a lot different than they used to be when I was younger.
WW: What do you tell teenagers/kids who are nervous about getting braces and being made fun of?
JG: Well, my daughter got her braces when she was 11 or 12. And she was nervous at first, thought they would hurt, but she really had a great experience with them. She's really happy with the results and she has a lot more self-confidence now. And she feels really good about her smile. And I feel really fortunate to be able to provide that for her. And you know, her dentist at the biyearly checkup said we had to take Luca to an orthodontist and they gave us a referral and we went and saw one. And we followed the recommendations and were very happy with the results. I think it's important for kids to get the information and for parents to take their kids to get that information about orthodontics. Get a referral from your dentist. Or visit braces.org, it's a website to locate orthodontists in your area.
RELATED: Niecy Nash shares potty talk
WW: How do you encourage positive self-esteem in your daughters?
JG: You know Peter and I try to be really involved with our girls on just about every level. You know promoting in them to do things that they're passionate about. Finding things that they really love doing so they can do something wholeheartedly. Teaching them how important it is to be involved with the community and feel like they're giving back in some way. And just supporting them. We go to every ball game, recital and performance. We have family dinner with them. Just try to instill that sense of family morals because that's really the backbone of who they are and what they're going to go off and be in life.
WW: What are some back-to-school fashion trends that your kids are particularly loving?
JG: Well as I said I have a 13-year-old girl, she's got a really great sense of style. She loves layering T-shirts. And wearing little skirts with Converse or flats. I loved the layered look, though, and throwing on accessories. She's really into rings and little jewelry right now. But there's lots of great ideas, if people need ideas, to go to the braces.org and it will show you some of the styles we are showing at the fashion show.

Tries came from Adam Rooney (2), Gary Mitchell and Greg Frost, with Mitchell kicking three conversions and forward Rob Black named man of the match. The score of the match saw Denver Bennett dance through several tackles before finding Mitchell, who powered forward and then fed Frost to touch down.

You know what the problem is with this country? Well I'll tell you what's wrong with this country — convenience store clerks, supermarket cashiers, pool cleaners, shoe salesmen, those dreadfully greedy public school teachers and, well, you. • You're the problem, you're the one we want. You should be ashamed of yourself. • If only you paid more taxes and stopped being the deadbeat tightwads that you are — yeah, you — why America could at last realize its Manifest Destiny, its unique exceptionalism and all that shining city on the hill stuff.
But nooooooo! All you moochers prefer to wallow in the conspicuous consumption of your lousy, stinking $40,000- or $50,000-a-year jobs, wasting time on your two-week camping vacations when you could be spending that moolah by paying the federal government more money in taxes.
It's only the proper thing to do — if you truly love your country.
And that's why you have to admire patriots like Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-What's Mine Is Mine, What's Yours Is Mine Too, who had the courage of a thousand Limbaughs to speak the unspeakable.
During last week's Senate floor debate on a nonbinding resolution calling upon the wealthiest citizens to pay more in taxes to help reduce the nation's debt, Hatch, doing his best Amy Winehouse impersonation, said: "No, no, no."
The real freeloaders, Hatch insisted, are the poor and the middle class. "They also need to share some of the responsibility," he noted. After all, they evade their fair share of the tax burden by taking advantage of irresponsible tax breaks for things like, children and mortgages on $100,000 homes.
Hatch, who has a net worth between $2 million and $5 million, is also locked in a tough re-election bid back in Utah from the tea party, which also ousted longtime uber conservative Republican Sen. Robert Bennett in 2010 after accusing him of not loving the U.S. Constitution enough.
You know, when your political future is in the hands of a tea party star chamber who thought Robert Bennett was whistling The Internationale in the shower simply because he once said good morning to a Democrat, perhaps you might turn into a lawn jockey for the silk stocking set.
It is a good thing Hatch is standing up for the top 10 percent of affluent Americans in opposing Obama administration proposals to bump the top two tax rates from 33 and 35 percent to 36 and 39.6 percent. Oh, the socialism of it all.
Imagine the chaos if the tax rates were raised a whopping 2 percent?
You could see the potential for financial Armageddon during a recent vacation down in Sanibel Island where we rented a small cottage for a few days. One evening the Bombshell of the Balkans and I were taking a walk when we stumbled on a massive mansion overlooking San Carlos Bay.
According to the Lee County Property Appraiser's Office, the 13,418-square-foot property, which our cottage owner told us is used as a winter getaway home by a Michigan couple, has an assessed value of $3.6 million.
Clearly, if the Marxist in the White House had his way, these poor people might have to downsize to a 13,000-square-foot second home, setting off a domino effect of downsized extra mansions ruining the property values of Sanibel and Captiva Islands.
Where does it all end? It wouldn't be long before, now robbed of that additional 2 to 3 percent in income taxes, these put-upon folks might not be able to afford the $209,000 Mercedes-Benz, being forced into the embarrassingly declasse $198,000 model.
How can anyone be expected to live like this?
So won't you do your part? For your country? For the besieged winter mansion owners of Sanibel/Captiva? For Orrin Hatch? What should we call this? The Free the Fortune 500 Telethon?
If you are a plumber, or paralegal, or insurance adjuster, or machinist, it's not too late to avert a national crisis. Call your senator, or member of Congress or that communist in the White House and tell them you want to pay more in taxes, much more, even it means taking on a second job to do the right thing if it will help ease the persecution of wealthy part-time Florida residents.
And while we're at it, isn't it time for those layabout children of yours to go out and get jobs as professional street urchins, before another swell has to cancel their vacation to Gstaad? What's right is only right.
You've gotten away living off the fat of the land evading your fair share of income taxes more than Al Capone for far too long and Orrin Hatch is onto you, Bunky.
A grateful nation thanks you for your understanding and cooperation.

Indignation at the electoral government of U. S. cities has flared up this summer all across the land. New York, Chicago, Dallas have had scandals laid at their mayoral or aldermanic administration doors. Detroit ousted its mayor on graft charges, elected a reform mayor after discussing city managership (TIME, Sept. 22).
In Dallas, fortnight ago, citizens went to the polls and voted to have a city manager instead of their picturesque Mayor J. Waddy ("Hot Dog") Tate. Thus on May 1 they will join Cleveland, Cincinnati, Rochester (N....

"_______" Alfred called. You walked out of the kitchen rubbing you small baby bump affectionately.
"Yea hun!" You looked up and saw Al looking at a piece of paper that was in one hand and holding an envelope in the other. "Is… everything okay?" you asked hesitantly. He looked up at you and grinned that goofy grin you loved so much.
"Yea, definitely. I just wanted to know if you wanted to go on a walk with me," he said sweetly. You smiled brightly and ran towards him. His eyes widened slightly behind his glasses and he caught you. "Careful babe, the baby." You kissed his cheek giggling.
"I blame the hormones," you whispered seductively in his ear. He shook his head and set you down. "Do you wanna go now?" you asked. He nodded and grabbed your hand.
"Only if you're up for it." He pressed a large hand to your stomach. You rolled your eyes and walked towards your room to get your shoes.
"I'm hardly three months pregnant. Of course I'm up for it!" Alfred chuckled and grabbed his coat and cap. "Ready," you announced, now wearing your favorite pair of sandals. Al pulled his jacket on sat his cap on his head.
"Then let us go," he said and slipped an arm through yours and walked out the door.
"Alfie," you said softly as the two of you strolled down one of the many piers in Savannah. He looked over at you and saw you shivering. He quickly slipped his jacket off and wrapped it around your shoulders.
"Yea _______," he replied. You fiddled idly with the hem of your shirt. You stopped walking and leaned against the railing of the pier. Al followed suit and jumped precariously up and sat on the thin bars.
"What… what were you looking at earlier?" you asked, worried about what he might say. You looked up at him and saw his bright blue eyes watching you closely. The setting sun brought out the highlights in his sandy hair and made his eyes pop. He braced his feet against the railings to balance himself and grabbed one of your hands in both of his.
"Babe…" he trailed off. You looked at him, knowing bad news was coming. "I got drafted." You stopped breathing as your heart shattered into a million pieces. No… no, no, no, no!!!
"Al." Your bottom lip quivered as tears started to blur your vision. "No, Al… y-you can't," you said desperately. "You can't g-go. You j-just can't." He hopped off the railing and grabbed your arms.
"_______, sweetheart," he said quickly. He reached a hand up and wiped at the tears pouring from your eyes. Barely even a year into your marriage and Alfred was already being drafted for the military.
"W-what if something h-happens to y-you?" you asked him. "W-we n-need you. Y-your brothers, your family, t-the baby. M-me… I need you," you sobbed, choking on your tears. Alfred immediately pulled you close and enveloped you in a tight hug.
"Shh, babe," he murmured, trying to sooth you. "Everything'll be alright." You cried into his chest while he gently petted your hair. He kept whispering soothing nonsense into your hair until you eventually calmed down a bit. You pulled away and Alfred couldn't help but smile. Your eyes were red and teary and you, unfortunately, had some snot running from your nose. He pulled out a hand kerchief out of his pocket and held it to your nose.
"Blow." You giggled despite your tears and blew your nose.
"Thanks," you muttered as he gently wiped away the rest of your tears.
"Everything will okay, I prom-!" You cut him off, leaping up and kissing him on the lips. You hiccupped and backed away.
"Just come home in one piece, kay'?" you demanded, staring fiercely into his eyes. He put his hand up in a fake salute.
"Yes ma'am," he said grinning like the complete goof he was. You wrapped your arms around his waist and sighed unhappily.
"You'd better, I don't know what I'd do if I lost you."
"P-p-please. Just d-don't get yours-s-self killed." You tried to stem the flow of tears but to no avail. Alfred pulled you into a hug and kissed the top of your head.
"I'll be back before you know _______ (nickname), I swear it," he told you. "And when I do, we're gonna start over right and raise that youngin' together, understood?" You sniffed slightly and saluted your husband.
"Y-yes sir," you said through a constricted throat. He scooped you up again into another big hug and spun you around, burying his face into your neck. His older brother Arthur walked up as he set you down.
"You take care of her, ya hear Artie?" he told his brother. Arthur nodded and the two hugged.
"Just keep yourself out of trouble," he told Al. Alfred nodded and listened as they called for all the men. Your eyes welled with tears again as you watched him walk towards his plane.
"Al…" you choked as the tears spilled from your eyes. You took off running to him. "Alfred!" you cried loudly. He looked over his shoulder and turned. You leapt into his arms and cried softly into his shoulder.
"It's gonna be okay," he whispered softly. He pulled you away to look at you. "I have to go. I am the hero after all." You smiled weakly and kissed him.
"You're my hero," you told him. "I love you Al." He kissed your forehead and wiped the rest of your tears. He started to walked away, never letting his eyes leave yours.
"I love you _______! More than anything!" he called. He blew you a kiss and turned, running to meet his fellow soldiers. You jumped as a light hand touched your shoulder.
"He'll be back soon." Arthur said. You sighed shakily and leaned into the Brit.
"I sure hope so Arthur. I really, really hope so," you prayed into his chest, trying to keep from blubbering all over you brother-in-law.
"Arthur! Could you get the mail?" you yelled to your brother-in-law from the kitchen.
"Yes love!" he called. You rolled your eyes. Ever since Artie had moved in with you to help with the pregnancy, he'd started calling you love. You figured it was just because you two were related now. As you listened to the front door slam closed you waddled your way into the living room. It had been 5½ months since Alfred had left for the war and you and the baby had both grown in his absence.
"To bad your daddy won't be here to see you," you said, looking down and rubbing your very pregnant belly.
"There's a letter!" Arthur chimed from the door. You tried to walked to Arthur but he saw you and gently guided you back to the sofa. "You need to be resting," he told you, handing you the letter from Al. You stuck your tongue out at him and tore the letter open.
Dear _______,
I'm comin' home! I know it's early but we were out scoutin' for landmines and I was near one that went off. I didn't lose anything', but my leg's broke. They can't do anything with a soldier with only one good leg so they're sending me home! I can't wait see you and the baby. I'll be home within the next forty-eight hours.
Love you,
You couldn't contain your excitement. Alfred was coming home early!!
"Arthur!" you cried, standing up quickly. "Arthur! He's coming home!" Arthur smiled and grabbed the letter. Your face went slack as he read the letter, feeling something running down your legs. Alfred's brother looked up grinning but noticed your worried expression.
"_______. What's wrong?" he asked quickly.
"My… my water just broke," you told him, stunned. The Brit's eyes widened and suddenly he was gently, but hurriedly shoving you towards the door.
"We need to get to the hospital! Now!" he said. You looked at him, your breath accelerating.
"B-but… but what about Al? He could be home any minute!" Arthur helped you into his car and ran to the other side.
"We'll call him when we get there, but right now we need to get you to the hospital." He cranked the car and headed as fast as he could to the hospital.
Alfred leaned back and sighed as the wind whipped his sandy hair around. Finally coming home. He thought that he'd be fighting for at least another year or so, but one of his fellow soldiers had been throwing stones in the minefield and accidently set one off The idiot, he thought as he shifted his casted leg into a more comfortable position.
"Happy to be home?" his friend asked. His buddy had picked him up at the airport and was driving him home. He was so ready to see you.
"Yea. I feel kinda bad for leavin' behind my men, but I'm glad to be home. My wife's just had our kid and I'm dyin' to see em' both," he said excitedly. His phone started ringing, shouting the Mission Impossible theme song to the world. He pulled it out of his pocket and flipped it open. "Hello."
"Alfred! Where are you?" his brother yelled at him through the phone.
"I'm on my way home of course," he laughed.
"Well you need to make your way to the hospital," Arthur panted. Alfred's eyes widened and the grin fell from him face.
"Why? What's wrong? Is _______ alright?" he asked quickly, trying not to imagine the worst.
"She's fine, but she is giving birth to your child! Hurry and get to the hospital!" he replied. He hung up the phone, leaving a very stunned Alfred on the other end.
"Everything okay?" his friend asked.
"W-would you mind driving me to the hospital instead of my house?" he asked, closing his phone.
"Sure. Somethin' happen to your girl?" he asked as he changed lanes and headed in the direction of the hospital.
"Artie said _______'s only just now havin' the baby." He looked at his friend. "I thought she'd already had it. It seems about the right time," he muttered. His buddy's eyes also widened before he grinned and pressed his foot hard to the gas pedal.
"Then I guess we'd better hurry up then."
"Arthur!" you yelled, trying to ignore the growing pain in you lower abdomen. "Arthur hurry up!" Arthur rushed back into the hospital room.
"I'm right here _______," he said and grabbed your hand. You squeezed it until he winced as tears poured down your face.
"Where… where is he?!" you gasped. "Artie… I'm not havin' this baby… until Al gets here," you cried loudly as another contraction hit.
"Uh, _______ love. I don't think that's the way this works," Arthur tried to tell you. You shook your head and groaned in pain.
"He has to be here," you told him stubbornly. He sighed and looked at you.
"He's on his-" He was cut off as the doors to your room opened and both yours and your brother-in-law's head turned.
"Al!" you yelled happily.
"Hey babe," he grinned at you. You looked him over, momentarily forgetting your current situation in your happiness. He had a few scrapes and bruises on his face and arms, but his leg! Your jaw dropped at the sight of his left leg. It was encased in a long white cast and he was walking with the aid of a pair of crutches.
"Alfred F. Jones! I thought we told you to stay out of- ahh!!" You cut off in the middle of your reprimand to cry out.
"_______, honey," Alfred said and hobbled over to you quickly. More tears squeezed their way out from under your eyes and Al sat down next to you and grabbed your hand. "It's okay _______, you can do this," he told you and pushed your hair away from your face. "I know you can." The doctors came rushing in and surrounded you.
"Alright Mrs. Jones. I need you to push," the doctor instructed. You pushed, trying your hardest not to shout. You squeezed your husband's and his brother's hand until your knuckles were white. You saw Alfred trying not wince. Good. That's not even an ounce of the pain I'm going through.
"You're so close _______," Alfred whispered, kissing your sweaty forehead. After what seemed like forever, the cry of a new born baby broke the air and you sighed with relief.
"It's a boy," the doctor said, handing the baby to one on the nurses. Al looked you, his bright blue eyes shining with happiness.
"You hear that _______(nickname). It's a boy," he said and leaned down and kissed you softly. Your heart fluttered at the warm contact. He pulled away when someone tapped him on the shoulder.
"Here you are sir. He's absolutely precious," the nurse said, handing him the bundle of blue blankets. Al smiled and took the baby. He set him in the crook of his arm and pulled the cloth away from the infant's face.
"You're beautiful," he whispered to the child. You tried to sit up and see your baby in your husband's arms.
"Alfred!" Arthur said, noticing your strain to see the baby," let the woman see her baby!" Al chuckled and gently handed you the swaddled infant. More tears rolled down your cheeks as you looked at your baby.
"You're gonna look just like you daddy," you cooed gently, leaning forward and kissing his small nose. Arthur looked tentatively over your shoulder to look at his nephew. You smiled and turned your head. "Do you want to hold him Artie?" you asked quietly. He pulled back to look at you with his bright, green eyes wide.
"I-I… I… well… if you d-don't…" he stuttered nervously. You laughed softly and held the baby out to him. He took his nephew in his arms and held him close. It reminded him of when Alfred had been nothing but an infant himself.
"Hi there," he said softly, rubbing one of the child's cheeks. You giggled and Alfred wrapped his arms around your shoulders.
"So, did you miss me Artie?" he asked, grinning at his older brother. You and Al watched as Arthur ran his finger under his eyes.
"Yes… I missed you, you git," he said, not taking his eyes away from his nephew. "And _______'s right you prat. We told you to stay out of trouble." Al laughed and kissed your cheek.
"You know that's impossible," he told the both of you. You shook your head and leaned back into him. "Is this the happy ending you've always wanted?" he asked you softly, still watching Arthur and his son. You turned to look at him. He looked back at you and you smiled gently. You kissed him softly.
"It's more," you whispered. "More than I ever could've asked for."

Since you you are open to correction, as you did welcome it, it should be "look just like your daddy," not "you". Hope this helped, and thank you for writing an amazing story!~

Should I or Shouldn't I? - Winnipeg, MB
So I've been really considering this for a while now, totally still on the fence! Like so many I've always had a small chest and have never felt very feminine. All I want is another one or two cup sizes! That's it! My main concern is I'm 23 yrs old and have not had children yet and am planning on it in another 2-3 yrs. If I get this done, what will my breasts look like after breast feeding?... READ MORE

Techdocs is one hitch; article generation/editing needs to be handled by some kind of online text editor. Otherwise we limit contributors to the current WWW team and nothing gets written. Of course, it would also be a really good idea to have any part of the site requiring significant maintenance .... such as the list of GUIs, the contributor list, or consulting companies ... to be editable via simple text editor or html form instead of via raw XHTML. This would allow the general pool of documentation volunteers -- which is 5x large than WWW volunteers -- to maintain these areas. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

There is a war raging and it has been a long time coming. The whole country is in a state of flux and it would be wise for all parties concerned to take heed of the changing tides. The military has launched a full-scale offensive in North Waziristan, the hotbed of militants in the country be they homegrown or foreign terrorists — for example, the Uzbeks alleged to be involved in the attack on Karachi airport. The civilian government has exhausted all options for avoiding this confrontation, no matter how naïve they may have been. The jingle of peace talks and negotiations kept echoing through the PML-N government's power corridors for the past many months while the military played its cards patiently but kept its powder dry because it — and, it seems, many in the rest of the country — knew that talks just would not deliver, giving instead the militants time to regroup and strengthen themselves. The brazen attack on the country's largest airport proved that point and forced the military's hand. Now that that hand has rocked the cradle, what is needed is political and national will to see Operation Zarb-e-Azb through to a successful conclusion where we see the terrorists wiped out and our sovereignty restored.
So far, the offensive has limited itself to airstrikes that have become more precise and surgical, eliminating as many as 55 militants in one attack. Two drone attacks on Wednesday killed a further five militants. The double pounding that the militants are receiving by the army and the US drones should be cause for celebration but, as usual, the civilian government has started raising the usual hue and cry about how drone strikes violate our sovereignty but, at the end of the day, it must be made to realise that our integrity and territory were compromised the moment we allowed jihadists safe havens on our soil. While drone attacks have tapered off in number, the army could use all the help it can get. Speaking of international aid, it is beyond comprehension why the federal government has seemingly refused help from foreign donor agencies to assist the many thousands of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) who are making their exodus out of North Waziristan and into other areas. The government is saying that it can help and support its own people but reality suggests otherwise. This government finds itself in the midst of a severe financial and crippling energy crisis where it is unable to help the people generally — what then of the IDPs? Sindh has said that it will not host the IDPs because it is afraid that militants will enter Karachi under the guise of Pahtun IDPs to integrate with the large Pashtun community in the port city, gaining access and causing mayhem. While one understands the qualms of the Sindh government, this is a rather impossible declaration as it is just not acceptable that one's own country shun its citizens.
Zarb-e-Azb has just begun. After the airstrikes, a ground offensive will be ready to kick in with ground troops joining the battle. The only reason behind the wait has been the final date given to the IDPs to evacuate — that date being today. There is no turning back now, no matter how many 'olive branches' are extended by the terrorists. The army has taken a brave and long awaited step, and the people have left their homes and hearths to rid themselves of the militant monsters in their midst. The government and army must stand side by side now for there is no alternative. *

It's bananas!
Before Megan Fox got starring roles in flicks like Transformers, she had a much less glamorous gig.
"I only had one job growing up. I worked at a smoothie cafe," the actress, 23, tells Nylon magazine. "I used to have to dress up as a banana.
"I had the option of apple or banana," Fox goes on. "I always went with banana because it was thinner."
Fox -- who shows off her body in short shorts for the mag's photo shoot -- says people have misconceptions of her.
"People think I'm, like, a wild child. I have a really, normal subdued life. I never leave my house," swears the star, who is currently on-again with beau Brian Austin Green.

Along with my
personal tasks list in SharePoint I can also be assigned tasks to complete
through another list we call the Bright Ideas and Project Tracker.
Whilst these are
being assigned I will or should have the opportunity to set a timescale for
when these need to be completed or when I am able to complete them.
There is no need to
add these to my own personal task list although i can do so if i wish but it
works quite well to simply set reminders against them by using outlook by
synchronizing this list.
My personal Task
As mentioned before
I can set timescales for when tasks need to be completed by and can update this
as needed.
As you can see from
this screenshot I can set a start date and a due date for the task which can
easily be updated and changed at any point.
To help keep track
of the task I can mark the percentage complete and set the priority.
Discuss with your
boss as precisely as possible what you have to do – either
verbally or in
writing if it's a bit more complicated.
If you don't fully
understand what you have to do, ask.
Pick your time.
Don't choose the beginning of an important meeting or at the end of a very
fraught day.
Be positive. Say
that you really want to do a good job but you need to be clear that you are
going about it the right way.
Try to establish a
series of progress checks if the target looks quite
Go back to the boss
if things are beginning to go wrong and,
if necessary, try to
renegotiate a target.
SharePoint has the
built in functionality to be able to set priorities against tasks as well as
allowing you to set a due date against each of the tasks.
The Gantt chart view
allows you to see a visual representation of each task timeline giving you a
quick overview of the progress of each task.
I regularly use both
the standard list view and the Gantt view to help me keep track of my workload.
This allows me to keep my line manager up to date and to give a forecast of
sorts as to how well or how badly I'm doing. Using this information helps if i
need to change targets and timescales for tasks or a project.
Using my own
personal task list I am able to set a priority and timescale to each task
– which often tends
to be the completion of a certain number of jobs during
a specific period.
Don't be tempted to
put everything into a 'pending' or 'jobs to do' file.
Classify your
targets into those that are
■ both urgent and important (class 1)
■ urgent (class 2)
■ important (class 3)
■ neither (class 4).
Highlight any
specific deadline dates.
Set certain
'milestones' along the route. The more you manage to break
down the work
involved in achieving a target into manageable periods of
time, the more in
control you will feel.
At the outset,
identify any targets that may be difficult to achieve and will
take extra time and
At the start of each
day plan to tackle your targets in 'class' order.
Make an early check
on resource issues or people you need to speak so that
you can then have a
clear pathway.
Try not to panic if
you have to re-order targets because an even more urgent
one suddenly crops
up. Just slot it into the most appropriate place on the list
and then keep going.
At the end of the
day always reschedule your targets for the next day.
Make sure that you
move forward targets with specific deadline dates and
try, if possible, to
complete at least some of them one day in advance of the
In theory you should
follow a four-step approach in which you:
Like many things,
it's easier said than done. What follows is one suggested
Stage one: Find the key factors
Start by writing down every key factor associated with the problem.
Stage two: Look for related areas
The next stage is to find 'sub areas' that fit in with the factors
you've listed.
Stage three: Analyse your notes
Study what you have
written, being as honest as possible with yourself
Stage four: Find any common factors
You might find that
you can spot a recurring theme.
Stage five: Ask someone else
You might want to
talk the problem over with a friend.
Stage six: Communicate
You might want to
think about approaching your colleagues directly
Stage seven: Find some common ground
I regularly send
emails to the business to keep them informed of progress relating to changes to
the various software systems we use.
I also put together
presentations and online training tutorials on a regular basis which goes into
detail about any new changes such as the one in this example:

OAKLAND, Calif. — A billboard near the main entrance to an Oracle Arena parking lot still features a life-size picture of Monta Ellis with his white No. 8 Golden State jersey. He's pumping his right fist in celebration.
In real life, Ellis is coming to the arena for Friday night's game to suit up and start as a new member of the Milwaukee Bucks, three days after the Warriors traded him, Ekpe Udoh and Kwame Brown for injured center Andrew Bogut and Stephen Jackson. On Thursday, Golden State turned around and dealt Jackson to the San Antonio Spurs for Richard Jefferson.
Ellis was expected to receive a warm welcome from his old fans, saying after a shootaround earlier in the day, "They loved me here and I loved them back."

The New York City-based band will be preparing for live dates and working on a new record which will mark the first hardcore/punk material recorded and/or performed by Mr. Jim since the original MISFITS era.For more information, visit THE VON FRANKENSTEINS Facebook page. "Mr. Jim" Catania last fall made his long-awaited return to the underground scene — this time as an independent store owner. With Mr. Jim's House of Video in Belleville, New Jersey, Catania is determined to introduce the new generation of rock and punk music fans to the forgotten charm of brick-and-mortar stores. Mr. Jim's House of Video stocks a huge selection of DVDs, new and used vinyl and independent CDs by local and regional acts. Additionally, the store boasts a vast array of adult merchandise including DVDs, VHS tapes, toys and magazines. Best of all, the new store has given Catania a chance to connect with MISFITS fans, who continue to show their support 30 years after he last performed with the band. "The MISFITS 'fiends' are the best," he said. "They really love the band and love meeting me, and it's really flattering to know that something I did all those years ago still gets people excited. I'm always happy to touch base with them, sign autographs and share stories about the old days. I really look forward to meeting many more 'fiends' at the store!" Mr. Jim's House of Video is located at 143 Washington, Ave., Belleville, NJ. For more information, visit www.mrjimshouseofvideo.com.

Christmas would not be the same without the parsnip.
It is one of those vegetables that people love to serve along with their turkey and stuffing. However, did you know that in Scotland the parsnip is often called the white carrot?
Loading article content
I think that parsnips are seen by most people as a bit of a mystery because they don't know what to do with them, but they should not be. They are the best vegetable you can get, followed closely by cauliflower and Swedes and, for me, they stand up for themselves.
They are also a very interesting vegetable. They came here from Eurasia and in the 15th and 16th centuries people used to use them in desserts, boiling them with honey, sugar and porridge. It sounds revolting but it's not, I know because I've tried it.
Nowadays, everyone chucks parsnips in oil with brown sugar and roasts them but that is not the way to treat them, they are sweet already and doing this to them will only make them sweeter.
What you need to do is boil them. This way they cook very quickly, they are not big on calories and carbohydrates and you get 100% of their pure flavour.
You can also puree your boiled parsnips, add milk and butter to them and simmer them on the stove to make a fantastic parsnip soup. They are even fantastic mashed and, in my opinion, better than mashed potatoes.
Parsnips are wonderful and should not be seen as a second class vegetable. For some reason, they seem to fall into the Brussels sprouts league but, although they are not native to our shores, they are a bit of an unsung hero and they should be up there with the top vegetables.
Every time they come in season it gets me down a bit because you can't get them anywhere unless they are roasted. You need to forget roasting them and boil them instead, they don't need a sauce and you don't even need to peel them or take the roots out.
I love eating them hot or cold, they go well with just about anything. They are fantastic with cottage cheese because the hot and cold just goes so well together. I even like dipping the parsnip and cottage cheese in ketchup because the sweet and vinegar works really well. It sounds weird but it is wonderful.
Parsnips are an under-rated vegetable so please give them a go.
Here are 10 more fascinating facts that you might not know about parsnips
1 Parsnips were made into wine and jam and added to flour for sweet cakes in 16th century Europe
2 Whilst growing, parsnips use the first cold frost to convert their starch into sugar. This gives them their sweet flavour.
3 Parsnips were considered a luxury item in ancient Rome and were served sweetened with honey or in fruit cakes and desserts
4 There are only four types of parsnip currently grown; the All-American, Andover, Avonresister and Gladiator
5 People used to believe that eating parsnips could relieve toothache or tired feet
6 Half a cup of parsnip counts as one of your five fruit and vegetables a day
7 Parsnips can grow up to 18 inches long
8 They are a good source of fibre, and vitamins B, C and E
9 The Romans believed that the parsnip could be used as an aphrodisiac
10 The parsnip is a member of the umbelliferae family and a close relative of the carrot and celery

Congressman Rich Nugent (FL-05) announced today that he will be hosting his first annual Lake County Veterans Resource Fair on October 15th, 2011.
Who: Rep. Rich Nugent and his District Staff
U.S. Rep. Rich Nugent (R-District 5) said his District Office in Brooksville will continue providing special assistance to veterans who wish to be registered with the National World War II Memorial.
During September, World War II veterans were invited to stop by the Congressman's District Office for assistance registering with National World War II Memorial. The response was overwhelming. More than 120 World War II veterans took Nugent up on his offer.
The Traveling Vietnam Memorial Wall will be in Crystal River from Sunday, Oct. 2 to Sunday, Oct. 9 at the Holcim Property on U.S. 19 a mile north of C.R. 488. Other military tributes will also be open free to the public 24 hours a day. All veterans, families and school groups can also visit the Florida Military of the Order Purple Heart Mural Memorial, the Korean War Memorial, and the Moving Tribute to those dead in the Global War on Terror and 9/11.
WWII veterans meeting
All World War II veterans are invited to join us for lunch on Thursday October, 13th at 11:30 a.m. at Melanie's Restaurant in Williston. Our WW II veterans come from 5 different counties so we switch our meeting places around to accommodate all of you. Melanie has catered us in the past so we know your lunch will be excellent. The restaurant is at 112 East Noble Ave. which is Hwy 27. Bring your spouse, a friend or a fellow veteran and join the camaraderie.
Veterans who served aboard U.S. Navy and Coast Guard ships operating on the waters of Vietnam between January 9, 1962, and May 7, 1975, may be eligible to receive Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) disability compensation for 14 medical conditions associated with presumptive exposure to Agent Orange.
The Friends of the Luther Callaway Public Library (FLCPL) Board of Directors will hold its monthly meeting at the Library, 104 N.E. 3rd Street, Chiefland, at 11 a.m. on Thursday, Oct. 13.
For more information, call call FLCPL president Tom Reitz at 493-1896 or 949-5413. For an agenda, email email@example.com.
The Log Cabin Quilters met Thursday, Sept 29, at the Levy County Quilt Museum. We had dozens of quilt, knit and crochet magazines brought in so everyone enjoyed looking for future projects. We still have some left.
Many people think that all we do is quilt and have good lunches. This year we gave our 25th quilt to the Central Florida Electric Company. We met at their building for many years before the museum was built.
Carl and Amanda Colson of Fanning Springs proudly announce the upcoming wedding of their daughter, Burgandy Colson to Christopher "Red" Arrington, the son of Randy and Jeanne Arrington of Trenton. The wedding will be held at Pine Grove Baptist Church on Oct. 22, 2011 at 4 p.m. Reception will immediately follow.
Jamie Baker is praying that the stands at Williston's Booster Stadium will be filled to capacity Friday night.
He's not alone.
Jason Cason's praying, too.
"I really believe that attendance at this event will rival the glory days of WHS football games back in the late '80s," Cason said. "Back then, the entire stadium was filled, and fans filled both of the vacant areas at each end of the stadium."

The banking crisis in Cyprus dominated the news this week as the market sold off 3 days in a row after being up 10 days in a row. The selloff was blamed on what was going on in Cyprus but that was not the real story. Globally Cyprus is pretty insignificant, most people probably don't even know where it is. The real story is that markets just don't go up for 10 straight days without needing a breather from time to time, Cyprus was just an excuse to take some profits. We told a reporter last week that we expected the Fed meeting to be an excuse to take profits, Cyprus just beat Bernanke to the punch.
Equity Markets
Our momentum indicators are still extremely bullish on the stock market. Our positive reading on stocks does not mean that the market is guaranteed to rise from here. There are still many risks on the horizon (Poor corporate earnings, problems in Europe, slowing economy, partisan bickering in Washington, etc) that could cause a selloff. However, our research suggests that when our momentum indicators are bullish the rewards of being invested outweigh the risks.
In the US we are now heavily weighted towards small cap stocks as they are showing the strongest momentum.. Globally, we have sold our international developed stocks and shifted to US Stocks. The three day selloff has brought the market closer to equilibrium. We have been buying Small Cap Stocks and US Dividend Paying stocks into the recent weakness.

How Wen Stays Healthy
It wasn't all politics and economy at Sunday's annual press conference with Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao.
At the end of a multipart question on relations between Hong Kong and mainland China, a reporter from Hong Kong's Sing Tao Daily inquired about Wen's personal well-being.
"Premier, you have been extremely busy for the past several years and many people pay attention to your health. Can you talk about how you continuously maintain your energy for the job?" the reporter asked.
Wen replied with a touch of humor. "As far as my health is concerned, everyone can see that I still have lots of energy," he said, about 90 minutes into the question-and-answer session, drawing smiles from the assembled press corps.
The 67-year-old Wen emphasized the role of regular physical activity in keeping him strong, despite his lack of much free time.
"Even though I'm a person who basically doesn't have holidays, I still like to exercise, whether it's taking a walk or going for a swim. It helps me to relax so that I can maintain my vigorous energy to deal with the weighty work," he said (see here for the transcript in Chinese).
Known colloquially across China as "Grandpa Wen" and the "People's Premier," Wen has cultivated an image as an approachable everyman that is rare among China's top leadership. Ahead of the legislative meetings this year, Wen participated in lengthy online chat in which he answered questions submitted by Internet users for the second year in the row, instituting what's set to become an annual tradition.
In the chat, Wen discussed some personal matters, such as that his mother suffered a cerebral hemorrhage after seeing a televised report of Wen having a shoe thrown at him by a German student at Cambridge University last year, and that she still has trouble walking and with her eyesight as a result.

I know a famous person...my friend Kathy is a guest blogger today at
Because of her witty fun style of writing she was asked to write for another blog.
I am so proud of her. She is her own guest blogger at her own fun site.
We started blogging and picture taking together. Last year about this time we both went to see the movie Julie and Julia. We both left pretty inspired. We decided we wanted to eat more and start a blog !!
We have had a lot of fun this year doing those 2 things together. She is really good at cooking, writing and picture taking...I am really good at copying her.
Another thing I am good at is inviting myself over her house so I can take pictures, eat her food and enjoy her company. Which reminds me..
Kathy, can we come over today after school and celebrate your big day of guest blogging? I promise we will eat whatever you bake us.Great job my friend !!

Rotations around some arbitrary axis are essential for any computer study of plate tectonics, but it can be astonishingly hard to find out how to do it. Since the mathematics were worked out long ago, most books on plate tectonics simply refer readers to mathematics texts, but since this is not a very widely-used operation, mathematics texts and references tend to omit it.
In order to describe a rotation on a sphere, we need to know the location of the rotation axis and the rotation angle. We will find it most useful to describe the rotation axis in terms of its x-, y- and z- coordinates. Call the x-, y- and z- coordinates of the axis c1, c2 and c3, respectively. For simplicity we will do everything on a unit sphere; if we need real-world values we can multiply the final results by the actual radius of the sphere. On a unit sphere:
c12 + c22 + c32 = 1
All the points rotated will also be described in terms of their three-dimensional coordinates. Use the formulas above to convert the coordinates of those points to Cartesian coordinates as well.
We are going to transform points (x,y,z) to new coordinates (x',y',z') using formulas:
Since this sort of thing happens so frequently in mathematics, a shorthand notation for it has been developed called matrix algebra. We can write the coefficients a1, b1 ... c3 in a square array. The operation of matrix multiplication is defined thus:
|a1 b1 c1||x| (x',y',z') = |a2 b2 c2||y| |a3 b3 c3||z|
To find x', take each term in the first row of the array, multiply it by the corresponding term in the original coordinate array (written vertically) and sum the result. That is, x' = a1x + b1y + c1z. We do the same thing for the y' and z' terms.
Multiplying a matrix by a constant or expression simply means multiplying everything in the matrix by the same term. Adding matrices means adding the terms.
|a1 b1 c1| |ka1 kb1 kc1| k|a2 b2 c2| = |ka1 kb1 kc1| and |a3 b3 c3| |ka1 kb1 kc1| |a1 b1 c1| |d1 e1 f1| |a1+d1 b1+e1 c1+f1| |a1 b1 c1|+|d1 e1 f1| = |a2+d2 b2+e2 c2+f2| |a1 b1 c1| |d1 e1 f1| |a3+d3 b3+e3 c3+f3|
For a simple 3 x 3 matrix, matrix notation may not seem like much of an improvement over just writing the equations. But for more complex situations, the improvement can be pretty substantial. However, my personal opinion is that, for situations where the user is going to have to write the equations in a program anyway, authors do a disservice (call it laziness) by simply stopping at the matrix forms.
Let the coordinates of the rotation axis be (c1,c2,c3) and the rotation angle be a. Any point (x,y,z) will be rotated into new coordinates (x',y',z') by the following matrix:
|1 0 0| |c1c1 c1c2 c1c3| | 0 -c3 c2| cos a|0 1 0| + (1 - cos a)|c2c1 c2c2 c2c3| + sin a| c3 0 -c1| |0 0 1| |c3c1 c3c2 c3c3| |-c2 c1 0|
In the middle term the coefficients are written c1c1, c2c2 and c3c3 partly to avoid exponents but also to show the pattern of the terms more clearly.
This form starts off with terms that are a bit more complex but leads to a simpler single matrix. We define k = c1 sin a/2, m = c2 sin a/2, n = c3 sin a/2, p = cos a/2. Note that:
2 2 2 2 k + m + n + p = 1
The rotation matrix is:
| 2 2 2 2 | |k -m -n +p 2(km-np) 2(nk+mp) | | | | 2 2 2 2 | | 2(km-np) m -m -m +p 2(mn-kp) | | | | 2 2 2 2| | 2(nk-mp) 2(mn+kp) m -m -m +p |
Here's where matrix algebra has an advantage. If we have two rotations, each represented as a matrix, the result of both rotations is the product of their two matrices. If, for example, you're doing a plate tectonic reconstruction where one source gives you the North America-Pacific rotation, and another gives you the North America-Eurasia rotation, you may want to determine the rotation between Eurasia and the Pacific.
The formulas for b, c, and d are just the formulas for converting latitude and longitude to Cartesian coordinates, but we need a different notation here because we have to distinguish two sets of coordinates. The result of the two rotations is:
We have a rotation with pole at latitude L, longitude W, Rotation angle A, and:

Beijing Capital International Airport is the 2nd busiest airport in the world
Chinese leaders have given final approval for a long-awaited new $11.2 billion international airport in Beijing to ease crushing congestion at the existing facility, state media said on Monday.The state-run China Daily
newspaper reported the decision, made Sunday, citing a spokesman for the country's State Council, or cabinet.
The existing international airport, which saw a major expansion in the run-up to the 2008 Olympics, is the world's second-busiest, reflecting China's relentless economic rise.
The new airport is likely to be in the south of the sprawling capital but other details including a start date for construction and its design were still being decided, the China Daily said, quoting spokesman Li Shengbo.
The newspaper also reported, citing CAAC News, a paper affiliated with the country's aviation administration, that large-scale construction would begin next year, with the airport due to open by the end of 2018.
CAAC News, quoting an aviation administration official, said the new airport would cost at least 70 billion yen ($11.2 billion), with six runways for civilian aircraft and a seventh for military use.
Beijing Capital International Airport, in the north of the city, has been ranked as the world's second biggest airport for three years, the China Daily said, handling 81.8 million passenger movements in 2012.
It ranks second globally behind Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta in the United States.
A new airport would put Beijing alongside the likes of New York, London, Paris and Tokyo as cities with more than one major facility.
Passengers in Beijing have long complained of delays, with another complicating factor being airspace distribution between civil and military flights.

Stroke experts are reporting a major advance: Stents similar to the ones used to open clogged heart arteries also can be used to clear a blood clot in the brain, greatly lowering the risk a patient will end up disabled.
Feeling cynical and hostile toward others may double the risk of having a stroke in middle-aged and older adults, according to a study out Thursday.
A high-tech scanner can help tell whether a brain-injured patient who appears to be in a vegetative state has a chance of regaining some consciousness, a study said Tuesday.
Men who love eating tomatoes may have lower odds of suffering a stroke, according to a Finnish study.
Among smokers, people who prefer mentholated cigarettes tend to have more strokes than non-menthol smokers -- and this seems to be especially true for women and non-African Americans, according to a North American study.
Women who regularly eat citrus fruits such as oranges and grapefruit may have a lower risk of blood-clot related stroke, according to a U.S. study published on Thursday.
Living in a crowded city or near a busy highway where the air quality is poor might lead to a higher chance of stroke or memory loss, according to two U.S. studies.
A drug discovered nearly four years ago that builds muscles in "lazy" mice may also prevent heatstroke, according to lab research reported on Sunday.
Six months ago, Singaporean retiree Soon Eng Sam, 70, suffered a stroke that paralyzed the left side of his body.
Women who enjoy a daily dose of coffee may like this perk: It might lower their risk of stroke.

A 51-year-old bicyclist was struck Monday night on West Orange Grove Road near North La Cholla Boulevard, authorities said.
The man was treated by paramedics before being taken to University of Arizona Medical Center with serious injuries, said Capt. Adam Goldberg, a Northwest Fire District spokesman.
The crash between the bicyclist and a truck was reported at 7:30 p.m., Goldberg said. The bicyclist was not wearing a helmet, and his bicycle did not have reflective lights, he said.
Goldberg said the bicyclist was exiting a shopping center parking lot onto Orange Grove and failed to stop at a stop sign, and was struck by the truck traveling eastbound.
The driver of the truck remained at the scene and cooperated with Pima County Sheriff's Department deputies, said Goldberg.

Service marks new Coptic year
A special service has taken place in Westminster this week to mark the Coptic Feast of Nayrouz and the new Coptic year.
The service at St Margaret's Church was attended by members of the House of Lords, the Speaker of the House of Commons, as well as church leaders, including the Reverend Canon Andrew Tremlett, rector of St Margaret's church.
A message from the Archbishop of Canterbury was read to the congregation by his personal secretary, Canon Jonathan Goodall.
The service was the first of its kind to be held by the Coptic community in the United Kingdom.
Bishop Angaelos, General Bishop of the Coptic Orthodox Church in the United Kingdom, spoke of the challenges facing Egypt and the Middle East, and the papal selection process taking place this week.
"At this significant time in the contemporary history of the Coptic Orthodox Church, we are prayerfully waiting for the announcement of the 118th Pope of Alexandria while at the same time hopeful that God can use this opportunity of change in Egypt to provide a heart for all where the rights, liberties, entitlements, and responsibilities of every person are considered equally before society and the law," he said.

History of the Shrine
From its inception, Saint Rita's has served as a spiritual, educational, social and cultural center within the South Philadelphia community. The generous donation of one individual, Mr. Lucas Burke, the eagerness of the then Archbishop, Patrick Ryan, and the leadership of the Augustinian Friars, came together in 1907 to provide a setting in which the spiritual, social and educational needs of the poor immigrant families could be addressed. These immigrants came not only to receive, however; they had much to offer as well. Their creativity, talent,
patience and industry built a monumental church whose beauty and spirit continue to encourage, inspire and enthrall believers and non-believers alike to our day.
Through its parish school, devotions and social activities, Saint Rita's became recognized quickly throughout Philadelphia. Over the years the parish served many communities. First came the immigrant families seeking a new life in a new country, reliant on their centuries-old faith. As they became part of the American fabric, the church shifted its concern to the ever-changing neighborhood and the city. By the early 1990s it seemed as if this remarkable community center might close. However, a faith-based initiative to revitalize Saint Rita's began and soon gained widespread support. The mission to rejuvenate this place of reconciliation and peacemaking began in 1993 as the result of a newsletter mailing to just 600 people. By the year 2000, the Bishops of the United States designated it the National Shrine of Saint Rita of Cascia, incorporated as a non-profit, civil corporation in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Since then, several additional phases of the renovation project have been completed, and popular support has increased. Saint Rita's is once again alive. New enthusiasts have joined longstanding parishioners to make Saint Rita's their spiritual home.
The years of rebuilding gave rise to the refurbishing of the upper church, a complete renovation and remodeling of the lower shrine and an installation of an elevator to reach both areas above and below ground level. Today our Peacemaker magazine reaches over 20,000 households nationwide, and the constant care to maintain and enhance the beauty of the church and shrine is clearly evident to visiting pilgrims and local devotees who frequent St. Rita's.
Tens of thousands over the years have come to call Saint Rita's their spiritual home, a unique place of spirituality and ministry. The soul of the church and its many accomplishments are embodied in the life of its patroness, Saint Rita, the 15th Century wife, mother, widow and nun who is renowned as Peacemaker, Advocate of Reconciliation and Helper in the most difficult of situations. Untold numbers of men and women from outside the community have also been drawn by the message and example of this wonder-worker saint over the course of the years to visit her church, invoke her aid, and sing her praises. Thus, the patrons of Saint Rita are distributed far and wide.
One very special event has continued uninterrupted since 1907, which brings people back to Saint Rita's: the Feast of the Saint herself on May 22, preceded by the Solemn Novena from May 13 to 21. In addition, since its revitalization as a National Shrine, there has been a steady rebuilding of interest and enthusiasm for Saint Rita's as a place of prayer, devotion and pilgrimage. Busloads of visitors come to the shrine, the newsletter's circulation is growing, and services to the community are expanding. There is a renewed sense of diversity and vitality, and a willingness to meet new needs as they arise. In discerning these needs and building upon what has already been realized, we look for the same spirit of generosity, enthusiasm and creativity that characterized our early history to continue, in order that we might meet the challenges of the future most effectively.

During the operation 96 abusive chats with children were analysed and 39 people were arrested, 17 of whom were in Spain. Investigations took place in 18 countries.

Researchers from the University of California, San Diego, and Yale University found that we have more DNA in common with the people we pick as friends than we do with strangers in the same population.
"Looking across the whole genome, we find that, on average, we are genetically similar to our friends," said James Fowler, professor of medical genetics and political science at UC San Diego.
"We have more DNA in common with the people we pick as friends than we do with strangers in the same population," Fowler said.
The study is a genome-wide analysis of nearly 1.5 million markers of gene variation, and relies on data from the Framingham Heart Study.
The researchers focused on 1,932 unique subjects and compared pairs of unrelated friends against pairs of unrelated strangers.
The same people, who were neither kin nor spouses, were used in both types of samples. The only thing that differed between them was their social relationship.
Fowler and Nicholas Christakis, professor of sociology, evolutionary biology, and medicine at Yale, found friends are as "related" as fourth cousins or people who share great-great-great grandparents. That translates to about 1 per cent of our genes.
"One per cent may not sound like much to the layperson but to geneticists it is a significant number," Christakis said.
Researchers found that friends are most similar in genes affecting the sense of smell. The opposite holds for genes controlling immunity. That is, friends are relatively more dissimilar in their genetic protection against various diseases.
Researchers said why we might be most similar in our olfactory genes needs further research.
It could be, Fowler said, that our sense of smell draws us to similar environments. It is not hard to imagine that people who like the scent of coffee, for example, hang out at cafes more and so meet and befriend each other.
Researchers have also developed what they call a "friendship score," which they can use to predict who will be friends at about the same level of confidence that scientists currently have for predicting, on the basis of genes, a person's chances of obesity or schizophrenia.
Genes that were more similar between friends seem to be evolving faster than other genes, said researchers, adding that this may help to explain why human evolution appears to have speeded up over the last 30,000 years.
The study is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
