How to Give a 9/11 Interview
Kevin Barrett Appears On 'For The Record'
By Adam Malecek, Staff Writer
This article is quite fine, but watch the absolutely splendid interview video! Barrett's lengthy, warm and compelling tour de force should be seen and studied by anyone facing civil questioning of their 9/11 beliefs. Like Dr. Stephen Jones, Kevin brings an extremely sympathetic and human voice to what are essentially horrific conversations and gives listeners both courage and hope in the process. The video can be downloaded for podcasting and other forms of sharing, and we urge you to share it widely. - Ed.

Colbert roasts Ralph Reed and the Christian Coalition
By John Amato on Religious Right
Colbert skewers Ralph Reed and the entire Christian Coalition in this segment. Ralph says that his values will win in November, which brings us to–The Word:
Video-WMP Video-QT
There are a few people that have received an A ratings from the CC and are in a wee bit of trouble with the law.
Wikipedia: Following a well-funded but failed bid for the U.S. presidency in 1988, Pat Robertson used the remains of his campaign machinery to jump-start the creation of a voter mobilization effort dubbed the Christian Coalition. Under the leadership of Robertson and Ralph Reed, the Coalition quickly became the loudest voice in the conservative Christian movement, its influence culminating with an effort to support the election of a conservative Christian to the presidency in 1996. Ralph Reed took control of day-to-day operations of the Coalition in 1989.

Israel, Iran and the US: Who Will be Blamed for Nuclear War?
Prof. Jorge Hirsch, Globalresearch.ca
The war on Lebanon may well escalate to the point where the US will use nuclear weapons against Iran, in what would be the first use of nuclear weapons in war since Nagasaki. And the world may well blame the Jewish State. Israel's bombing campaign which is causing immense suffering, is in blatant violation of the Geneva conventions, and deserves the strongest of condemnations. It is especially important for the Jewi! sh community today to distance itself from Israel's immoral government policies and US's support for them. Many Jews are doing this, unfortunately, many are not...

Dan Halutz: Target Civilians in Retribution
Kurt Nimmo
IOF chief of staff Dan Halutz "has given the order to the air force to destroy 10 multi-storey buildings in the Dahaya district (of Beirut) in response to every rocket fired on Haifa," reports Khaleej Times, citing IOF radio. One can't help but think of the Nazis when hearing this news. Not unlike the Ordungspolizei and Wehrmacht in Eastern Europe, the Israeli military has signaled its desire to take collective punishment to a new and horrific level, but then! , since few complain and the corporate media cheers them on, this should be expected. Dan Halutz appears to be a modern Erich von dem Bach, SS-Obergruppenführer, responsible for reprisal actions against partisans (terrorists, of course) and the shooting of POWs during the September Campaign (Fall Weiß), or invasion of Poland and Eastern Europe in 1939...
UK government sources confirm war with Iran is on
Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed, Online Journal Contributing Writer
In the last few days, I learned from a credible and informed source that a former senior Labour government minister, who continues to be well-connected to British military and security officials, confirms that Britain and the United States " . . . will go to war with Iran before the end of the year." As we now know from similar reporting prior to the invasion of Iraq, it's quite possible that the war planni! ng may indeed change repeatedly, and the war may again be postponed. In any case, it's worth noting that the information from a former Labour Minister corroborates expert analyses suggesting that Israel, with US and British support, is deliberately escalating the cycle of retaliation to legitimize the imminent targeting of Iran before year's end...
Back to Hariri's murder
Roas to Iraq
...The murder of Hariri was the beginning of a large scale destabilization plan of all Lebanon, and it tracks, lead to the Lebanese civil war and ends in the Washington, New York and Jerusalem in recent days. It was a cooperation work between the US, Israeli Mosad and Anti-Syria Lebanese in exile, among the people quoted by the German journalist is Moustafa Al-Nasser, former adviser of M.Hariri, which said: "The assassination of Hariri is the work of the Israeli secret service! , Mossad, the purpose of which is to create political tensions in Lebanon"...
Time interviews Izzat al-Douri
Eli Stephens, Left I on the News
...Time forgot to mention one subject in their questions or the accompanying article -- al-Douri's family. In November, 2003, the U.S. illegally arrested his wife and daughter, in contravention of the Geneva Conventions, in order to pressure al-Douri into surrendering. As late as June 2004 their detention continued, and I know of nothing to indicate that that has changed (although it may well have). Are his wife and daughter still in detention? How d! id he feel about the U.S. imprisoning them for at least a half year, if not for many years? We don't know the answer...
"Israel is defending the whole world. She's doing all the dirty work." - 12-year-old Jonathan Sapir, an Israeli living in the U.S., at a pro-Israel rally in San Jose yesterday. "Dirty work" indeed. Out of the mouths of babes. Some of the other quotes from the article are equally interesting. Jonathan's mother Sima says this: "9/11 happened once here. But 9/11s happen almost every week, everywhere in Israel. We are not free." Well, let's see. Isra! el's population is 7 million people; even considering a "proportionality" of deaths compared to the US' 300 million, a "9/11 every week" would amount to 70 Israelis being killed every week. In the last six years, 1100 Israelis have been killed in conflicts with Palestinians and now Lebanese. That's 3.5 people a week, or 5% of a 9/11 every week. Let's contrast that to Lebanon. With a population of 3.8 million (two weeks ago, anyway), a "9/11 every week" would amount to 38 people killed a week. Israel has been bombing Lebanon for 12 days now, and killed at least 380 people, or 221 people a week. That's nearly six "9/11's every week."...
Exclusive: Insurgent Ba'athist In His Own Words
Interview with Izzat al-Dourii
...The Ba'ath's position on negotiations, especially with the American and [British] sides, is clear. It rests on principles that cannot be prejudiced or impaired by any individual or party. They are: 1. Recognition of the resistance in all its forms — Islamist, patriotic, and nationalist — any group whose aim is to liberate Iraq from the invasion forces. 2. An announcement of withdrawal of U.S. forces, without re! striction or condition. 3. Complete cessation of raids, round-ups, and operations involving killing and destruction. 4. Release of all captives, detainees, and prisoners. 5. Restoration of the [old] army and national security forces. There have been no negotiations with the Americans, merely attempts by the American side to make contact with the Ba'ath Party and to negotiate with it in order to draw it into the political game. Similar attempts have taken place with other anti-occupation parties. No dialogue will take place — with any party — that is not on the basis of these principles...
Lebanon...What I pity
Samah Idriss, Online Journal Guest Writer
...What I pity about you, Lebanon, is that you should be afflicted by a leadership that did not take advantage of the liberation in 2000 to fortify the South and other areas against future Israeli aggressions. (And anyone who took into consideration Israel's history and ambitions in this region could have seen that more aggression was not long in the waiting.) The successive Lebanese cabinets failed to build shelters, pave roads, or invest in the ins! titutions that contribute to a populace's steadfastness (such as hospitals, schools, universities, etc), despite the millions of dollars that were received from Arab regimes after each Israeli attack and were passed on to the Council for the South....
White House release calls for Israel to hit Syria
David DeGraw, Alternet
On Meet the Press, Tim Russert points out a stunning press release from the White House Communications Office. The release, titled Setting The Record Straight, endorses an LA Times Op-Ed that calls for Israel to attack Syria: "It's time to let the Israelis take off the gloves…. Israel needs to hit the [Syrian] Assad regime. Hard." It's difficult to not interpret this as the White Communications Office officially endorsing an Israeli ! attack on Syria...
Israel's "Breathing Space" Occupation on Schedule
"OC Northern Command Maj.-Gen. Udi Adam acknowledged in a briefing at Northern Command headquarters in Safed on Sunday afternoon that the commander of the IDF's civil administration unit had already begun preparations toward the possibility of instituting a military administration in areas captured by the IDF over the last week," reports the neocon-friendly Jerusalem Post. "According to Adam, 'Certain units who will give us breathing space have been cal! led up, including the commander of that unit.' The unit's activation, however, would only take place following comprehensive consultations, he said." In other words, regardless of all the flimsy assurances offered by the corporate media, waist-deep in the process of sanitizing (or ignoring) Israel's war crimes in Lebanon, the Zionist state will once again occupy southern Lebanon. It has nothing to do with "breathing space" and everything to do with kleptomania, a prominent feature of the Israeli state since its inception...

Israel to get U.S. "bunker buster" bombs - report
The United States will soon provide Israel with some 100 "bunker buster" bombs to kill the leader of Lebanon's Hizbollah guerrilla group and destroy its trenches, Asharq al-Awsat newspaper reported on Monday. Quoting unidentified informed sources in both Washington and Tel Aviv, the Saudi-owned Arabic daily said the bombs, which can penetrate up to 40 metres (130 feet) under ground, would be shipped to Israel from a U.S. military base in Qatar...
US, UN give Israel green light for Lebanon slaughter
Larry Chin, Online Journal Associate Editor
Israel has begun a massive invasion and possible reoccupation of Lebanon, with the enthusiastic support of the Bush administration, and the "international community." As the world "evacuates" Lebanon, Israeli forces were massing for a major ground offensive, having already been given the green light to kill as it pleases. New reports reveal that an Israeli war has been planned, simulated and rehearsed since 2000, and ! disseminated on an "off record" basis to high-level US officials (and policy think tanks, and journalists) by senior Israeli army officers for the past year. This confirms that every aspect of this Israel-led holocaust has been deliberate and orchestrated, coordinated with full Washington foreknowledge and assistance. According to Gerald Steinberg, professor at Bar-Ilan University, "Of all of Israel's wars since 1948, this was the one for which Israel was most prepared."...
Israeli Warplanes target Red Cross and UN in southern Lebanon
Commentary by Michel Chossudovsky
This report published by the Malaysian Sun confirms that Israeli war planes are now targeting the UN and the Red Cross. No doubt, we will be told that this is "collateral damage". The underlying objective is criminal. Israel seeks, in blatant violation of international law, to prevent the flow of humanitarian aid to Lebanese civilians. If the United Nations Security Council does not imple! ment sanctions against Israel, when UN sponsored missions and accredited humanitarian organizations are the target of Israeli war planes, what can we conclude? Is this end of the United Nations as an international body? The arrogance and criminality of Israel is beyond bounds...
Lebanon accuses Israel of using "internationally prohibited weapons against civilians"
Phosphorus incendiary bombs and vacuum bombs
The Jurist
Israel is using "internationally prohibited weapons against civilians" in Lebanon as the country faces "real annihilation," according to a statement from Lebanon Information Minister Ghazi Aridi Sunday after an emergency cabinet meeting. Lebanese media reports state that Israel used phosphorus incendiary bombs and vacuum bombs that suck up air and facilitate bui! lding collapses. The use of incendiary weapons against civilians has been banned by Protocol III to the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons ] since 1980...
Iraqi Resistance Report for events of Monday, 24 July 2006

According to an announcement posted on the patriotic Iraqi albasrah.net website, a spokesman for the Iraqi Baath Party declared on Sunday that the deterioration in the health of the General Secretary of the Party and President of Iraq Saddam Husayn and his admission to hospital as a result of his hunger strike was all due to the failure of the occupation to ! respond to the President's demands that his defense team be provided proper protection. The Baath Party spokesman "emphatically warned" the American Administration against the response that would be mounted should any harm befall the President. The Party, the spokesman said, "will be obligated to respond with all available means against the American Administration and its stooge officials for this crime, should anything bad happen" to the President...

ICRC - Bulletin No. 3 - Lebanon
International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC
Heavy bombing has continued in the south of the country over the past three days. Medical staff from the Lebanese Red Cross Society continue evacuating the wounded and sick under very difficult and dangerous conditions. The Society reported five security incidents in recent days affecting ambulances, events that highlight the obligation to spare those engaged in medical work. The latest of these incidents occurred on 23 July, at 11.15 ! pm in Cana, a village in southern Lebanon. According to Lebanese Red Cross reports, two of its ambulances were struck by munitions, although both vehicles were clearly marked by the red cross emblem and flashing lights that were visible at a great distance. The incident happened while first-aid workers were transferring wounded patients from one ambulance to another...
Israeli Cluster Munitions Hit Civilians in Lebanon
Report, HRW
...Israel has used artillery-fired cluster munitions in populated areas of Lebanon, Human Rights Watch said today. Researchers on the ground in Lebanon confirmed that a cluster munitions attack on the village of Blida on July 19 killed one and wounded at least 12 civilians, including seven children. Human Rights Watch researchers also photographed cluster munitions in the arsenal of Israeli artillery teams on the Israel-Lebanon border. "Cluster muniti! ons are unacceptably inaccurate and unreliable weapons when used around civilians," said Kenneth Roth, executive director of Human Rights Watch. "They should never be used in populated areas."...
GI Special 4G25: "This War Is Lost" - July 25, 2006

GI Special 4G24: The Staff Sgt. - July 24, 2006
The son of a former administrator at Stockton's University of the Pacific was killed this week in a bomb blast while on tank patrol in Baghdad, Iraq, a Department of Defense spokesman said Tuesday.
Staff Sgt. Jason M. Evey, 29, died immediately Sunday afternoon when the Bradley tank he commanded ran over an improvised explosive device on a road, said Maj. Nathan Banks, an Army spokesman.
John Evey said his son wasn't shy about stating his opinion against the United States' war in Iraq, but he nonetheless led with dedication and honor.

News Hounds : Hanity Poll Shows His Fans Out of Sync with the FOX Message
This morning Sean Hannity began running a poll on Hannity.com asking the question "Do you believe Israel is justified in attacking Hezbollah?" At this point the poll numbers are as follows:
1. Yes, Israel has a right to defend itself...........29.26%
2. No, Israel is going too far ............................70.74%
On his site Hannity boasts that he's "Tuned into America". Looks like he needs to change the radio dial on this one. Or bring in a whole bunch of ringers to vote the approved FOX way.
A big "thank you" to Trac for the heads up on this story.

Why am I not surprised the ACLU is defending a bunch of anti-troop Democrats:
KANSAS CITY, Mo.—A Kansas church group that protests at military funerals nationwide filed suit in federal court, saying a Missouri law banning such picketing infringes on religious freedom and free speech.
The American Civil Liberties Union filed the lawsuit Friday in the U.S. District Court in Jefferson City, Mo., on behalf of the fundamentalist Westboro Baptist Church, which has outraged mourning communities by picketing service members' funerals with signs condemning homosexuality.

Keeping Our Minds Supple
Questioning Everything
A lot of people feel threatened if they feel they are being asked to question their cherished beliefs or their perception of reality. Yet questioning is what keeps our minds supple and strong. Simply settling on one way of seeing things and refusing to be open to other possibilities makes the mind rigid and generally creates a restrictive and uncomfortable atmosphere. We all know someone who refuses to budge on one or more issues, and we may have our own sacred cows that could use a little prodding. Being open-minded means that we are willing to question everything, including those things we take for granted.
A willingness to question everything, even things we are sure we are right about, can shake us out of complacency and reinvigorate our minds, opening us up to understanding people and perspectives that were alien to us before. This alone is good reason to remain inquisitive, no matter how much experience we have or how old we get. In the Zen tradition, this willingness to question is known as beginner's mind, and it has a way of generating possibilities we couldn't have seen from the point of view of knowing something with certainty. The willingness to question everything doesn't necessarily mean we don't believe in anything at all, and it doesn't mean we have to question every single thing in the world every minute of the day. It just means that we are humble enough to acknowledge how little we actually know about the mysterious universe we call home.
Nearly every revolutionary change in the history of human progress came about because someone questioned some time-honored belief or tradition and in doing so revealed a new truth, a new way of doing things, or a new standard for ethical and moral behavior. Just so, a commitment to staying open and inquisitive in our own individual lives can lead us to new personal revolutions and truths, truths that we will hopefully, for the sake of our growth, remain open to questioning.

Bloglines - The Fog of War
THE BLOVIATOR...home of the well reasoned rant
Cutting through the obfuscation of the mainstream media and the information glut of the blogosphere, in a one-man quest for Partial Information Awareness.
By akeelshah74@hotmail.com (Akeel Shah)
Just wanted to share a very very good documentary that you can watch in its entirety on google video. The documentary is Errol Morris' The Fog of War. It's basically a 2 hour interview with Robert McNamara, Secretary of Defense in the Kennedy administration, one of the architects of the Vietnam war. A really fascinating and likeable guy, and suprisingly sharp for an 85 year old. Sit back and soak up McNamara's rules of war gained from a lifetime of experience as a strategist. Too bad he's not in charge of the Department of Defense today, I'm pretty sure he'd be a vast improvement.
From Wikipedia, here's a list of McNamara's lessons:
The film's eleven lessons
1. Empathize with your enemy.
2. Rationality will not save us.
3. There's something beyond one's self.
4. Maximize efficiency.
5. Proportionality should be a guideline in war.
6. Get the data.
7. Belief and seeing are both often wrong.
8. Be prepared to reexamine your reasoning.
9. In order to do good, you may have to engage in evil.
10.Never say never.
11.You can't change human nature.
McNamara's additional ten lessons
These were written as a companion to the film and were included in the Special Features of the DVD.
1. The human race will not eliminate war in this century but we can reduce war, the level of killing, by adhering to the principles of a just war, in particular of proportionality.
2. The indefinite combinations of human fallibility and nuclear weapons will lead to the destruction of nations.
3. We are the most powerful nation in the world - economically, politically, and militarily - and we are likely to remain so for decades ahead. But we are not omniscient.
4. If we cannot persuade other nations with similar interests and similar values of the merits of the proposed use of that power, we should not proceed unilaterally except in the unlikely requirement to defend the continental US, Alaska and Hawaii.
4.Moral principles are often ambiguous guides to foreign policy and defense policy, but surely we can agree that we should establish as a major goal of U.S. foreign policy and, indeed, of foreign policy across the globe : the avoidance in this century of the carnage--160 million dead--caused by conflict in the 20th century.
5. We, the richest nation in the world, have failed in our responsibility to our own poor and to the disadvantaged across the world to help them advance their welfare in the most fundamental terms of nutrition, literacy, health, and employment.
6. Corporate executives must recognize there is no contradiction between a soft heart and a hard head. Of course, they have responsibilities to their employees, their customers and to society as a whole.
7. President Kennedy believed a primary responsibility of a president--indeed "the" primary responsibility of a president--is to keep the nation out of war, if at all possible.
8. War is a blunt instrument by which to settle disputes between or within nations, and economic sanctions are rarely effective. Therefore, we should build a system of jurisprudence based on the International Court--that the U.S. has refused to support--which would hold individuals responsible for crimes against humanity.
9. If we are to deal effectively with terrorists across the globe, we must develop a sense of empathy--I don't mean "sympathy" but rather "understanding" to counter their attacks on us and the Western World.
10. One of the greatest dangers we face today is the risk of mass destruction as a result of the breakdown of the Non-Proliferation Regime. We--the U.S. are contributing to that breakdown.
11 Lessons from Vietnam
The origin of the film's lesson concept, these eleven came from McNamara's book In Retrospect: The Tragedy and Lessons of Vietnam:
1. We misjudged then — and we have since — the geopolitical intentions of our adversaries … and we exaggerated the dangers to the United States of their actions.
2. We viewed the people and leaders of South Vietnam in terms of our own experience … We totally misjudged the political forces within the country.
3. We underestimated the power of nationalism to motivate a people to fight and die for their beliefs and values.
4. Our judgments of friend and foe alike reflected our profound ignorance of the history, culture, and politics of the people in the area, and the personalities and habits of their leaders.
5. We failed then — and have since — to recognize the limitations of modern, high-technology military equipment, forces and doctrine…
5. We failed as well to adapt our military tactics to the task of winning the hearts and minds of people from a totally different culture.
6. We failed to draw Congress and the American people into a full and frank discussion and debate of the pros and cons of a large-scale military involvement … before we initiated the action.
7. After the action got under way and unanticipated events forced us off our planned course … we did not fully explain what was happening and why we were doing what we did.
8. We did not recognize that neither our people nor our leaders are omniscient. Our judgment of what is in another people's or country's best interest should be put to the test of open discussion in international forums. We do not have the God-given right to shape every nation in our image or as we choose.
9. We did not hold to the principle that U.S. military action … should be carried out only in conjunction with multinational forces supported fully (and not merely cosmetically) by the international community.
10. We failed to recognize that in international affairs, as in other aspects of life, there may be problems for which there are no immediate solutions … At times, we may have to live with an imperfect, untidy world.
11. Underlying many of these errors lay our failure to organize the top echelons of the executive branch to deal effectively with the extraordinarily complex range of political and military issues.

Description Rare tractate of the Babylonian Talmud, 9th edition. The printing of the Babylonian Talmud was a difficult and perilous endeavour in the 15th and 16th centuries. Difficult because of the complicated text and its enormous size, perilous because of the animosity of the Roman Catholic Church and its censors in the Iberian peninsula, and in Italy, the most important countries of early Hebrew printing. The first three editions, which appeared before 1553, were destroyed for the greater part in 1553. In that year Pope Julius III ordered the destruction by fire of all copies of the Talmud which could be found. His orders were obeyed in many Italian cities with Jewish congregations.

Do You Know Your U.S. States?

A south Mississauga high school is offering a first-of-its-kind football prep program in the Canadian public school system, starting in September.
Clarkson Secondary School will be home to Football North Canada's prep program.
"Our goal is to attract top Canadian talent and keep them in Canada, and we found a great partner in the Peel board," said FNC head coach and director of football operations Larry Jusdanis.
"Working together, we want to provide student athletes with the opportunity to specialize in year-round football training and compete against the top high school teams and coaches in North America," while they earn their diploma.
Between 35 and 50 athletes are expected to participate in the program's first year.
"Just as their coaches are committed to helping them achieve athletic excellence, we too are equally committed to helping these student athletes be a part of a school where they will be supported to learn, achieve academically and contribute as valued members of the Clarkson community," said Peel District School Board superintendent of curriculum and instruction support services Poleen Grewal.
Students in the Football North Canada prep program will be coached by its employees, and won't compete in any Region of Peel Secondary School Athletic Association (ROPSSAA) sanctioned games.
Clarkson will continue to field its Chargers football team, which will compete in ROPSSAA.
Families and players must contact Football North Canada directly to learn more about their recruitment process, which they run independently.
Training camp begins Aug. 15.

The Internal Revenue Service reminds taxpayers with expiring Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs) to submit their renewal applications as soon as possible. Failing to renew them by the end of the year will cause refund and processing delays in 2018.
The IRS mailed letters over the summer to more than 1 million taxpayers whose ITINs are set to expire at the end of the year – those with middle digits 70, 71, 72 or 80. In addition, any ITIN that has not been used on a federal tax return at least once in the last three consecutive years will also expire at the end of the year. Affected taxpayers who expect to file a tax return in 2018 must submit a renewal application by the deadline.
Taxpayers with ITINs set to expire at the end of the year and who need to file a tax return in 2018 must submit a renewal application. Others do not need to take any action.
Taxpayers have the option to work with Certified Acceptance Agents (CAAs)authorized by the IRS to help them apply for an ITIN. CAAs can certify all identification documents for primary and secondary taxpayers and certify that an ITIN application is correct before submitting it to the IRS for processing. A CAA can also certify passports and birth certificates for dependents. This saves taxpayers from mailing original documents to the IRS.
In advance, taxpayers can call and make an appointment at a designated IRS Taxpayer Assistance Center instead of mailing original identification documents to the IRS. When making an appointment, be sure to indicate that this involves an ITIN renewal application.
The ITIN renewal requirement is part of a series of provisions established by the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act enacted by Congress in December 2015. These provisions are outlined in IRS Notice 2016-48.

This property was upgraded into a mid-century design which we have a special attraction. The layout of the place, its lighting outward views and expansive glass openings was just ideal. We were a large family group. Frank and Kaelyn were excellent hosts, took care of our every concern and most gracious with their accommodations. Kids (grown) made ample use of kayaks and paddle boards. Cruising bikes were ideal for our ride to the end of Fifth Avenue. Kitchen was well stocked as well and the bar setup was especially keen. Can't wait to book a return!
Everything was new! We have an 8 month old and it was great to let her crawl around on the new & clean carpets. The finishes were impressive, marble bathrooms and loved the rain shower. Overall we had a great stay and really enjoyed Naples.
My family and I stayed in the home for 3 days. It's spacious, clean, modern, and the kids had a fabulous time in the pool!!
The owners were efficient with their communication. It was great!!
We had a great experience with this property! This property easily accommodated 5 of us! Great central location close to the beach and shopping centers. The owners were very friendly and quick to accommodate our needs. Beautiful views of the sunset from the living room area. We loved the covered swimming pool area. We will be staying here again in the future.
This house is great! We stayed with our whole family and it was so much better than a hotel. The bedrooms are nice with a TV in every bedroom. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, plates, etc. Walking distance to the 5th avenue shops. The pool is well kept and clean. The bikes were fun to ride around on. Thank you for letting us enjoy your home, we'll definitely be back.
Beautiful, comfortable, open living with easy access to shopping, dining, and beach.
We stayed for a week and thoroughly enjoyed it. The house was clean, spacious, and well set up for privacy or togetherness. The doors open all the way in the back, which was lovely, as we were able to share indoors/outdoors. The bedrooms were comfortable, and the bathrooms were a nice size. The open kitchen was perfect for entertaining.
The attention to detail at this property is astonishing. The lush tropical landscaping upon entering combined with gorgeous ceramic pots and a fountain create the ambience one looks for when on vacation! We are used to staying at 5 star hotels like the ritz carlton and W hotels, but the high end finsishes and furniture at this property are unparalleled for vacation rental homes. We particulary enjoyed the complete privacy in the back pool area with the screened lanai - as there is no house directly behind this house. We would have liked another bathroom as there are only 2- but both of them are stunning with great water pressure marble through and rain shower sytems! Being across the water, roughly a mile from 5th avenue and under 2 miles gave the property even more appeal. Overall we give the property 5 stars and look forward to book during season next year.

Which divorce model is best for me?


We got married on the 15th October 2016 and it was the most magical of days! A picture tells 1000 words, so here's a roughly 12,000 word blog post for you!
The day was perfect. Everything went according to plan until the final moments when my Dad and I were due to leave for the ceremony and I realised I had given the car keys to my friend who had already left. Of course there always has to be a little story though so at least it wasn't anything too serious. We just got in my dads car and we're only 5 minuntes late.
Roly and I were both nervous about saying our vows in front of everyone in the lead up to the day but in the moment it was like we were the only 2 people there. It was so special and I'm so proud and lucky to be Mrs Glendon.

So You are the DIY type, huh? Book Yourself here.
Let me give you a little bit of truth about Online Travel Agencies.
Do the resort credits match what's usually offered?
OTAs often package your vacay differently to make the rate more enticing, so you always need to read the fine print. The biggest thing to look for is the no refund or trip cancellation protection—spending $3,000 on a romantic getaway that you can no longer go on and then losing the $$$ in the process, sounds like a SMH situation and I would be PISSED!
That's why I am telling you, play it smart, use this link and avoid the potential headaches of an OTA (while still getting a great deal)!
Why Book Using Our Funjet Link?
It doesn't cost you anything. These services are free to our site visitors. Use our booking tool like any other out there.
We can match other online pricing with suppliers.
We can help you update your bookings, upgrade your trip and take care of any add-ons you might have.
Save time: why spend hours looking for the best deals and resort? Using our preferred suppliers for your vacation guarantees they have been properly vetted and held to the highest standards.
We know about the fine print—meaning, after you book, we can help you because many people do not read and do not understand the implications. We know rules, terms and conditions.
Priceless advice: once you are booked, stay connected. We will make recommendations and are here to answer all of your questions—from the pre-planning process until after you return home.
Prevent hassles: we love our DIY clients, however, sometimes they don't realize if the hotel they book does not live up to their expectations, they are left at the mercy of the hotel. Paying the cheapest rate for your room may mean you will be the first to have your room denied if hotels are over-booked. Not with us, you get the confidence of a VIP at a great rate.
We will follow-through on your reservation. We'll make sure everything goes smoothly.


"...The only way to effectively relate to others is to share with them something… some commonality… that allows you to be parties on an equal footing.
This commonality may be space / location… it may also be interest. All my passions above, if taken seriously, are opportunities for such commonality.
And from this commonality comes community.../"

Grateful to Johnny for the opportunity and, more importantly, the challenge. However, please note, I did not receive any money for the complements I showered him with.

Plans approved for new education centre at Maitland
Maitland Council has unanimously approved plans submitted by the Diocese to transform the former Maitland Ex-Services Bowling Club site into a home for a new 70-place St Nicholas Early Education Centre and a 20-place vocational training centre.
John Kingsley-Jones PUBLISHED November 21, 2017
Sean Scanlon, Vice Chancellor Administration, said the Diocese has identified Maitland as a key focus for early education in coming years.
"We know parents throughout Maitland value the quality of education provided by our Catholic schools and we plan to build on this by opening a new early education centre at Maitland in 2019," he said.
"We will need to further fine-tune plans for both this centre and for the vocational training facility which will be for those interested in a career in early education," he said.
In more good news for St Nicholas Early Education, its recent advertising campaign seeking to fill 74 full-time educator roles at early education centres Cardiff, Lochinvar and Chisholm – scheduled to open in 2018 – attracted hundreds of applications.
Sean said he was delighted by the response to the advertising campaign – but had experienced a similar response previously.
"When we recently advertised a range of positions for our centre at Chisholm, which is opening in January 2018, we had well over 100 applications.
"Once we fill the positions we have just advertised for Cardiff, Lochinvar and Chisholm, we will have more than doubled the number of educators at our St Nicholas early education centres – which currently stands at 50.
"Opening new quality and state-of-the-art early education centres in 2018 and 2019 is all part of the Diocese's plan to meet the demand for high-quality education in the Hunter-Manning region," he added

Mauritania Travel Wiki
Travel to Mauritania
The Islamic Republic of Mauritania can be found in West Africa, bordered by Mali, Algeria, and Senegal. The nation has its roots in the ancient Berber Kingdom, which ruled the area for about 1,000 years – until around the 7th century. About 90% of the country is part of the Sahara Desert, so most of the population ca be found along the coast and southern border.
Along the coast, you will find the Banc d'Arguin National Park. Millions of migrating birds fly through this are each year, making it a birdwatching paradise. As an extra bonus, one can often see the local fisherman working with dolphin pods to round of schools of fish so they can be netted and processed in the shallows.
A visit to Oualata, a world heritage site, should also be on the itinerary. It was on the ancient trans-Sahara trading routes of the Middle Ages and features numerous geometric designs with its buildings. One of the more unique museums in the city features an exhibit of ancient scrolls where you can see the calligraphy used in generations before.
The world's longest train can be found in Mauritania as well. The total length of the train averages about 3km and its route from Zouerate to Nouadhibou takes about 12 hours to cover nearly 700km of distance.
Certain areas of Mauritania are heavily mined, so be wise about travel plans. Political instability is common. Stick to the main roads, do a little research, and keep your wits about you. Do that and you will find that Mauritania is an honest, welcoming, and interesting African destination.
Nouakchott, capital of Mauritania
Nouakchott Travel Wiki Travel to Nouakchott Nouakchott is the capital of Mauritania and is called the "place of the winds." Until 1958, it was a small village along the coast that helped to support the local fishing industry. Over the years, as the deserts have creeped closer, more and more people have begun calling this deep-water port their home. The fishing wharf and beaches are one of the main attractions of the city.

Travesty of Justice: Incarceration of Tariq Ramadan

The unjust incarceration of Dr Tariq Ramadan, Professor of Contemporary Islamic Studies at Oxford University, demeans and disgraces the French legal system.
Tariq has been detained in a solitary cell in the high security wing of Paris's Fleury-Merogis prison since the 2nd of February 2018. It is alleged that he raped two women in Lyon and Paris in 2009 and 2012 respectively. A criminal investigation is being carried out in order to build a case against him. He has no access to his family and is not even allowed to communicate with them through the phone.
It should be emphasised that it was Tariq who voluntarily went to the police in Paris on the 31st of January to answer the allegations against him. He has cooperated fully with the investigating authorities. And yet he has been treated harshly.
The way he has been treated should be weighed against the scurrilous allegations hurled at him. In the Lyon incident, the accuser alleges that she was raped in a hotel in the afternoon of 9th October 2009. Tariq's attorney has provided the prosecution with evidence that shows that Tariq's flight from London did not arrive in Lyon until 6.35 pm and he was in a hall by 8.30 pm to deliver a lecture to hundreds of attendees. The French police which confirmed receiving this piece of evidence later "claimed that it was "missing" from the case file because it had been lost." This in itself is a gross travesty of justice.
What makes it even more suspicious is a meeting between the accuser and a high-ranking French magistrate, Michel Debacq, in 2009 " with the apparent intention of bringing a case against Prof Ramadan, with the assistance of notorious Islamophobes Caroline Fourest and Antoine Sfeir. Debacq would thus appear to have unethically colluded with Fourest and "Christelle" (the accuser) against Prof Ramadan nine years ago. Debacq who now serves in France's Court of Cassation did not disclose his previous involvement either with "Christelle" or the current case, which is illegal according to French law."
The Paris incident which allegedly took place in April 2012 further undermines the veracity of the claims made by Tariq's accusers. In this incident, the accuser, one Hendra Ayari, "sent Prof Ramadan no fewer than 280 messages via Facebook between June and August 2014," more than two years after the alleged rape. It has been disclosed that
"Ayari recently admitted to French media that she did send these messages through a second Facebook account she had created — after Prof Ramadan had blocked her first account because she was harassing him — in the hope that she could seduce and entrap him. These recent revelations may be the reason why Ayari did not appear when French police summoned her last week."
Though allegations from both women appear so utterly baseless, the prosecution continues to detain Tariq with the aim of dragging him to court. The mainstream French media has been complicit in this. Not only does it present ludicrous allegations as facts, it has even gone further and repeated lies about Tariq designed to discredit him. For instance, several media outlets had reported that
"Prof Ramadan has an Egyptian passport, which he might attempt to use in order to flee to Egypt. Prof Ramadan does not have an Egyptian passport, and is a citizen of Switzerland only."
The French media's smearing of Tariq Ramadan and the legal system's skewed attitude reflect a larger problem. Dominant French society does not take kindly to those who have the courage to criticise its bias against Islam and its followers. This is what Tariq has been doing for a long while. He has been forthright about of how French state and society have discriminated against Muslims. Islamophobia in Europe as a whole and the increasing marginalisation of the poor and powerless in the continent have also been abiding concerns of the man. Tariq has also been vocal about the dogmatism of ultra-conservative Muslims and the authoritarianism of Muslim regimes.
In other words, there are different groups that would want to nail Tariq Ramadan to the wall. This is why his persecution in France is not just about antagonism towards Islam and Muslims and the determined drive to stifle rational voices that seek to expose French prejudice and bigotry. It also reveals the hypocrisy that surrounds the noble French and European ideal of the right to dissent, especially when it comes to certain fundamental issues. Or, is Tariq's ordeal also obliquely related to Muslim authoritarianism and its ability to reach far beyond its own shores?
Given all these forces at work, how can we expect a fair and just trial for Professor Tariq Ramadan? Hence the demand of the Free Tariq Ramadan Campaign and other civil society groups and individuals for his immediate and unconditional release.
Dr. Chandra Muzaffar is the President of the International Movement for a Just World (JUST).

The second installment of a piece devised by myself and Sara Jane Munford, performed at McCarren Park on September 24th, 2017. This iteration was dedicated to Houston after Hurricane Harvey devastated the city. Sara Jane is from Houston so we decided to both pay tribute to our hometowns.
We laid the clay grid the same way we did in the first iteration. This time we used a red clay.
We walked along the grid tracing the Houston highway map. Sara Jane traced the concentric circles while I traced the 10 freeway which goes across the country from Los Angeles to New York.
We repeated the mantra, "Take what you need, leave what you don't."
We tore up the pieces, trapping ourselves in a circle of clay. The pieces collected dirt, grass, acorns, and sticks.
I built a small Austin, for the year I spent there.
Then we built New York together.
We then flooded our cities with water that contained flower essences for regrowth (fireweed), for home and family (saguaro), for feminine creativity (pomegranate), and for embracing both masculine and feminine parts of the self (calla lily).

How Time Warner Cable and Comcast might reassure the feds
Nancy Marshall-Genzer Apr 21, 2015
If Comcast and Time Warner Cable go ahead with their planned merger, they'd control almost 30 percent of all the cable TV subscribers in the U.S., possibly raising fears that they'd own too much of the market. They will reportedly sit down with Justice Department officials this week.
So, how do you reassure the regulators that you're not out to rule the cable world? For starters, sell some stuff, experts say. Get smaller.
"Cable properties, television properties, channels," says David Klein, managing partner at Klein Moynihan Turco. "It could even be radio or print publications as well."
Klein says Comcast and Time Warner could also start offering a la carte pricing, something cable customers have been clamoring for. Comcast could also throw in internet deals for libraries or schools.
"They might, for example, offer to provide higher speed services to some schools in their footprint," says former Republican FCC commissioner Harold Furchtgott-Roth.
Or Comcast could agree to hand over some of its customers to a competitor.


The 1st amendment and freedom of religion aside for a moment, even if it were OK to impose religion in the schools and courthouses, it still comes down to whose religious or even whose Christian view.
If we are going to impose biblical commandments, why the 10 Commandments in the Old Testament instead of what Jesus himself said were the two greatest commandments: to love your God with all your heart and the second was to love your neighbor as yourself.
Why the harsh judgment of the Old Testament instead of the love, grace and salvation of the New Testament?
Let's be honest, this not a matter of being religious, or being Christian, this is picking which part of Christianity with which to judge and condemn others.

The Penny Dreadfuls
Santa Susana High School
Website: Santa Susana High School
The Penny Dreadfuls are orphans and runaways who spend their nights and days working for the dastardly Professor as pickpockets and thieves. They've got far more than mischief up their sleeves! Their stolen goods always ends up at a pawn shop run by the despicable Bethesda Nightsoil and Dorthea Sprockett. The Professor's partnership with these ladies has been very profitable until Mad Aggie, a former Penny Dreadful now disguised as the town lunatic, vows revenge on the Professor for sending him to jail for ten long years. And revenge was never sweeter! First, the Professor gets a bottle of potion he believes will cure his baldness. It does. There's hair everywhere and there's no stopping it. Then Scuttlebutt, the leader of the Penny Dreadfuls, gets himself arrested. The others are certain the Professor will do whatever it takes to get Scuttlebutt out of jail, but Mad Aggie knows better: "I know a Penny Dreadful he left in a cell. He's done it before. He did it to me! To save his own neck, any song he'd gladly sing. And he'll lose no sleep if from the gallows you swing!" Meanwhile, the Professor's bizarre family, who thinks he's a respectable businessman, comes for an unwelcome visit. To hide his hairy condition, the Professor mysteriously disappears. His family becomes suspicious and so does his girlfriend, the vamp Lolita Foxglove. They all suspect Bethesda and Dorthea of doing him in. "They've murdered him and buried him under the floor! I smell maggots!" exclaims Eunice, the Professor's slightly deranged niece. When the Professor finally does make an appearance, his desperate cruelty shocks even Dorethea and Bethesda. This is a fast-paced, darkly comic play reminiscent of Dickens' "Oliver Twist." As in Dickens' novel, all villains get their due. This makes a great non-musical alternative to "Oliver!"

No one writes about cars - and the ways of the world - quite like Jeremy Clarkson
Jeremy Clarkson puts the pedal to the floor in Don't Stop Me Now, a collection of his Sunday Times motoring journalism.There's more to life than cars. Jeremy Clarkson knows this. There is, after all, a whole world out there just waiting to be discovered. So, before he gets on to torque steer and active suspension, he takes time out to consider:
* The madness of Galapagos tortoises
* The similarities between Jeremy Paxman and AC/DC's bass guitarist
* The problems and perils of being English
* God's dumbest creation
Then there are the cars: whether it's the poxiest little runabout or an exotic, firebreathing supercar, no one does cars like Clarkson. Unmoved by mechanics' claims and unimpressed by press junkets, he approaches anything on four wheels without fear or favour. What emerges from the ashes is rarely pretty. But always very, very funny.
Praise for Jeremy Clarkson'Brilliant . . . laugh-out-loud' Daily Telegraph
'Outrageously funny . . . will have you in stitches' Time Out
'Very funny . . . I cracked up laughing on the tube' Evening Standard
Jeremy Clarkson began his writing career on the Rotherham Advertiser. Since then he has written for the Sun, the Sunday Times, the Rochdale Observer, the Wolverhampton Express & Star, all of the Associated Kent Newspapers and Lincolnshire Life.

Employers Must Engage Workforce at the Human Level to Gain Competitive Advantage in War for Talents
posted 30 Jan 2011, 06:50 by Mpelembe [ updated 30 Jan 2011, 06:55 ]
Manpower Inc. Introduces the Human Age With Thought-Provoking World Economic Forum Discussion on How Companies and Individuals can Win in the New Reality
DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan. 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Manpower Inc. (NYSE: MAN), world leader in innovative workforce solutions, has warned that companies must tap into employees' full range of talents to succeed in the Human Age. Manpower kicked off the 2011 World Economic Forum Annual Meeting inDavos, Switzerland with a panel discussion with CNBC, "Entering the Human Age — unleashing and leveraging human potential in the new reality."
Manpower announced before the discussion that the company has identified that the world is now entering the Human Age, where employers will be awakened to the power of humans as future drivers of economic growth. While previous areas were defined by the materials that transformed them — Stone, Iron and Bronze, then by ever-evolving technology — industry, space and information, in the Human Age access to key talent will become the key competitive differentiator. It will matter less if countries and companies can access capital and more if they can attract and retain the talent they need to win.
"Those individuals with the skills and the talent are actually changing the swagger in their step," saidJeffrey A. Joerres, Manpower Inc. Chairman and CEO. "When there is so much global competition, every person has to be very good. Employers need to work with their people to unleash their full spectrum of skills, engaging them on a human level and retaining those high-quality people to succeed in the new age."
Joerres was joined in the debate by moderator Frank Brown, Dean of INSEAD; Sharan Burrow, General Secretary of the International Confederation of Trade Unions; Don Tapscott, Chairman of Moxie Insight and best-selling author of Macrowikinomics; Kris Gopalakrishnan, CEO and Managing Director of Infosys, Jim Quigley, CEO of Deloitte, and Dan Brutto, President of UPS International.
Quigley echoed Joerres' sentiment, saying companies need to provide employees with a working environment where they can excel. "We the organization are responsible for you to perform at your very best," he said.
With the Human Age accentuated by demographic shifts such as aging workforces, worsening talent mismatches, the collaborative power of fast-evolving technologies and the need for companies to do more with less, discussion panelists agreed that having an adequate talent pipeline is as challenging as it is critical. It's about employers looking for specificity of skills and the need for employers to adopt a "one-size-fits-one" approach to employee engagement on a human level.
"If you're turning over the people in your company on a rapid basis you're not going to be successful in the market place," said Brutto.
The panel also focused on the problem of long-term unemployment, which is adding to the imbalance between the talent needed and the talent available because skills deteriorate when a person is out of work for an extended period of time. Collaboration is the key to tackling this problem, but individuals must ensure they commit to lifelong learning to get ahead in the Human Age.
"It's the biggest challenge ever to put unemployed people back to work," said Burrow. "We've got to invest in jobs and investment in jobs needs to be blended with investment in skills."
Brown added that so-called "industry migrants" – workers who are moving to a different industry – are one key to solving the skills mismatch but they need adequate transition support from employers. "This is about transitioning from one industry to another," he said.
Tapscott said that protectionist attitudes to immigration would exacerbate the talent mismatch because it will make it difficult for individuals with the required skills to relocate to where they are needed. He also added that more entrepreneurs need be assisted to create more jobs. "We should be encouraging entrepreneurship because most 80 percent of new jobs come from companies that are five years old," he said.
Gopalakrishnan said the velocity of change in the Human Age also poses massive challenges for the individual. "The nature of work and the areas in which work is being done are changing. Today, a person will probably change jobs five or six times. If an employee doesn't have the skills, they're at a disadvantage."
"The topics we've discussed are complicated and we're in the middle of the transition," said Joerres. "We are entering the Human Age."
Manpower Inc. is proud to be a strategic partner of the World Economic Forum 2011 Annual Meeting. Jeff Joerres, Manpower Inc. Chairman and CEO; David Arkless, Manpower Inc. President of Corporate and Government Affairs; Francoise Gri, Manpower Inc. President of Southern Europe; and Jonas Prising, Manpower Inc.
