Fla. Govt. DeSantis' new election crimes unit makes its first arrests
Leave a comment on this story
Fort Lauderdale, Fla. – Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced the first arrests made Thursday by the state's new election police department: Twenty people previously jailed for murder or sexual assault who said they voted illegally in the 2020 election.
The GOP-led Florida Legislature earlier this year passed a bill creating the Office of Election Crimes and Protection at DeSantis' behest. Although Florida's 2020 election went smoothly — DeSantis called it the "gold standard" for elections — the governor said there were still problems, and conservative lawmakers sought to tighten voting rules.
The governor – who is widely considered a 2024 presidential candidate – announced the arrests, saying "this unit has sprung up to hold individuals accountable for voter fraud". DeSantis said they were arrested for violating provisions of a constitutional amendment passed by Florida voters in 2018, which allows those previously incarcerated to register to vote — except for those convicted of aggravated sexual assault or murder.
"This is just the opening salvo," DeSantis said. "It's not the 2020 total."
But early arrests indicate that Florida's election system is robust and crime is rare, if polling teams and experts are anything to go by. Some worried that the new section could have a chilling effect on particularly vulnerable voters, including those previously incarcerated and legally eligible to vote.
"It's 20 out of millions of voters," said Michael MacDonald, a polling expert and political science professor at the University of Florida. "These arrests are inconsistent with the integrity of the electoral system."

DeSantis made the announcement by law enforcement officials in Broward County, which has the most registered Democrats of any county in Florida. They were arrested six weeks after the office opened Five days before the state primaries.
In recent years, Florida has introduced new voting regulations. A law passed in 2021 reduced the number of ballot boxes again this year, making it an offense to have more than two ballots. DeSantis said he aimed to eliminate "ballot harvesting." Voting rights advocates say it criminalizes a once-common practice in places like black churches where volunteers collected and distributed ballots.
For those convicted of felonies, the process of renewing voter rights can be complicated. A law signed by DeSantis requires them to pay all fines and fees stemming from their convictions, a process that is confusing because there is no central database for citizens and election supervisors to consult.
"To this day, we believe that if the state can't stop its decision, they should be reluctant to affect an individual's liberty," said Desmond Mead, executive director of the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition. "The system of government is broken. These people should never have been registered.
U.S. Rep. Charlie Crist (D), former Florida governor is running against DeSantis in the upcoming gubernatorial electionHe said Thursday's arrests were "playing politics" and intimidating voters instead of securing elections.
"Ron DeSantis likes to say that we had one of the best-run elections in 2020," Crist said. "So why is he spending millions to change the system, including making it harder for people to vote?"

The arrests come at a time when election workers and officials are struggling Constant barrage of reviews and personal attacks in response to Donald Trump's false claims that the 2020 White House race was tainted by fraud — a lie that fueled distrust among his followers in the veracity of the nation's electoral system.
DeSantis has defended and continues to defend the accuracy and efficiency of Florida's election offices, but he said voter fraud still occurs. The Florida Department of State received 262 election fraud complaint forms in 2020 and forwarded 75 to law enforcement or prosecutors. About 11 million Floridians voted for president that November.
"Before I proposed this, it was my idea because people weren't being prosecuted. There were only examples where things seemed to fall through the cracks," DeSantis said.
Thursday's event, held in a courtroom in a public building, had a partisan tone. Attendees had to be on a list to enter the courtroom, and a woman who identified herself as a Palm Beach County Republican Party volunteer kept track of who could enter.
At least one Democrat, Fort Lauderdale's vice mayor and congressional candidate Ben Sorensen, tried to gain access to the event but was denied entry. Inside, DeSantis staff seated the media in the back of the room. Invited guests, including Republican supporters and officials from across South Florida, sat in the jury box. Several held signs reading "My Vote Count" moments before DeSantis entered the room.
Jasmine Burney-Clarke, founder of the Equal Ground Education Fund, which advocates for voting rights, said the arrests would spark fear among people who had recently regained their right to vote.

"It's very scary for people who have already voted," Burney-Clarke said.
McDonald, a University of Florida professor, expressed concern that Thursday's arrests are targeting specific voters — particularly those who have been previously incarcerated.
He pointed out that Trump should Correct his voter registration When he said his address was the White House in 2020, that made him ineligible to vote in Florida.
"I'm not going to go after Donald Trump for that. He made a mistake and he corrected it," MacDonald said. "I think other people should be given the same consideration that was given to Donald Trump."

For Many Undocumented Workers, There's No Such Thing As Minimum Wage
BY Sebastián González de León
Share TweetReddit41 EmailPrint
Immigrants and people of color tend to get more low paying jobs, placing them at more risk of facing any wage violation.(wavebreakmedia / shutterstock.com)
Wage violations are commonplace in Chicago. They affect low-paid workers in industries like construction, food service and retail. Immigrants and people of color are especially vulnerable because they tend to work in more low-income jobs. David, who requested a pseudonym to protect his safety, told In These Times his story.
Twenty-three-year-old David migrated to Chicago in late 2017. His first job was as a busboy at a restaurant on the Northeast Side. His job was to clean tables and bring water to customers. He said at the gig, where he worked earlier this year, he was being paid $6 dollars per hour plus tips.
According to David, he wasn't receiving tips directly from customers. Instead, he was told he would get a percentage of net sales. This tipping method was never fully explained and left him in a vulnerable position. Some days, he says, he would receive no tips at all. He would be taken off the floor by the owner to clean the apartments above the restaurant during his shift. "She made me clean every apartment. Yet they had nothing to do with my job. Besides, they were not even part of the restaurant," David recalls.
Although coworkers told him to object to unrelated work requests, they also warned him that refusing could cost him his job.
In mid-February, David said he was sick and the only employee on the restaurant floor. His boss told him that he had to clean the windows of the apartments from the outside. "There was a snow storm that week. I had a pretty bad and noticeable cold," David says. Despite protesting that he was too sick, David says the owner of the restaurant made him work outside.
Knowing he was in a precarious position, David continued to clean all of the apartments and their respective outdoor windows. As such, he was unable to collect tips because he didn't work the restaurant floor. As a result of being outside, his sickness worsened and he became feverish, he says. This proved to be too much ,so he could not go to work the next day. The retaliation for his absence was swift. His shifts were cut, and sometimes management would fail to tell him until he arrived at his scheduled time—after a one-hour commute. He never received an explanation, he says.
David quit. But he argues that he was technically forced out when his employer cut his shifts to one day a week. Unfortunately for him, he still had to keep in contact with his employer because they had not paid him for all of his work to date. When he received his paycheck, he says a coworker told him that he should make sure that he was being paid for all of his work because he suspected that his hours were not fully accounted for, but he did not want to engage any longer with management. He took his $450 paycheck for one month's work and used it all to pay his rent.
David commented that, between tips and paycheck, he never received close to a complete minimum wage.
The wage-theft epidemic
Wage theft is an-all-too common phenomenon in immigrant communities in Chicago. Individuals born outside the United States are 1.5 times more likely to experience a labor violation.
Three ordinances are active in Chicago to avoid wage violations. The first one dictates that if an employer commits wage theft, they can lose their commercial license. The second states that minimum wage in Chicago must increase every year until 2019. The third ordinance grants one hour of sick leave, per every 40 worked hours.
Unfortunately, these ordinances have not been fully able to dissuade business owners from stealing wages or violating labor laws. A study published by the Center for Urban Economic Development of the University of Illinois at Chicago found that the labor laws are regularly and systematically violated. This makes David's case commonplace among low-income workers: 15 percent of the tipped workers in Chicago that were interviewed never received a full minimum wage.
Low-income workers are the ones who face a bigger risk. Immigrants and people of color tend to get more low-paying jobs, placing them at more risk of facing any wage violation. The problem, though, affects all low-income workers. Twenty-six percent of all the respondents were paid less than the required minimum wage and 23 percent had to perform "off-the-clock" tasks, among other violations.
Jorge Mújica, the Strategic Campaigns Organizer from Arise Chicago, argues that wage theft can happen in every industry. Yet he points out three particular ones: construction, restaurants and retail. Mújica says that wage theft is an "epidemic."
"It happens a lot, for example, in small laundry businesses, small restaurants, small stores, and family-owned places," explains Mújica.
David never raised his voice. He said he did not want any trouble because he feared retaliation from management. The numbers in the University of Illinois study show that reprisal from employers is frequent. Firing, suspension, threats to call immigration authorities, slashing work hours or payment are common for immigrants and those in low-income jobs.
Taking action is difficult. The dismissal rate of wage violation cases that are filed, is rather high: 41 percent in 2010 to 58 percent in 2014. "Our famous ordinance against wage theft, has never been enforced," Mújica tells In These Times. The frustrations of activists like Mújica or fears like the ones David has are not unfounded. "[I would like] that workers were aware and had knowledge [of their rights] and were organized," Mújica adds, "and that the government had the means to enforce and oversee the laws."

Can and has, but with what success rate? And what does that have to do with the people in general?
I don't know that the mass majority has never, or never will, but I am the one who said it ain't that likely.
What the fuck does what you said have to do with honest dialog? I am the one who said it ain't easy.
Though you are way off the rail on the: " this corrupt, totalitarian, police-state and those who control it, and the salient actions that can cause it's demise."
That's pure radical but not very connected to reality BS.
What the hell does your last sentence have to do with anything I said? And I am still pissed at Israel for the USS Liberty.

You ramble incoherently, and try to tie your faulty thinking in one area to other areas of your faulty thinking/rambling/made-up musings. Did you have a point? History has proven many times that a determined minority, as little as 3-5% of the population, can and has defeated the most powerful enemy. Contrary to popular opinion, the mass majority has never overthrown/eradicated their oppressors, and never will. They allow it, get it, and get it increasingly, as tyranny is not static, and increases over time. That is a prime reason that tyranny is so prevalent, and is so difficult to abolish. Only 3-5% of the population just so happens, are the ones that possess the qualities that are needed to eradicate their oppressors. And some of those qualities are, integrity, principles, a moral-imperative, strong will and determination. It's never easy to eradicate the most powerful enemy, but always necessary. To use the U.S. as an example, 3-5% of the population is roughly 9.5-16 million people. But you're not here to indulge in honest dialog are you. You are here to deflect, derail, circumvent, change-up, honest dialog that in your handler's opinion get's too close to pinpointing the exact nature of this corrupt, totalitarian, police-state and those who control it, and the salient actions that can cause it's demise. You and folks like you are usually degenerate provacatur morons from the CIA or Israel, with hidden agendas.

It's so easy to organize into guerilla armies and overthrow the oppressor, why it was a walk in the party for George Washington.
Tell me all about how you joined a guerilla army to overthrow an oppressor. I will be thrilled to hear about your heroism and valor.
I assume you blame the slaves for being slaves. After all, the fact that the slave owners had the guns really should not count.
Your solution is so simple, if we are attacked by the Taliban just wipe the nation of Afghanistan off the face of the earth, after all, they are all guilty. Wonderful theory, kill em all, let God sort em out.
I'm sure you can explain how that works when Afghanistan was one of the most heavily armed places in the world, but the Taliban disarmed the population within two years of taking over.
Only problem is, if the great majority of the people are not willing to overthrow the government, then, by your reasoning, the government must not be a tyranny. So, the most brutal racist government must be accepted as valid if the people do not overthrow it.
So, again, tell me about your valor, your courage, your efforts to overthrow what you perceive as a tyrannical government.
Now, give Trump just a few years and he will accomplish his goal of becoming emperor, but I'm sure you will prevent that.
My thinking is correct. It is your lack of knowledge and therefore faulty logic stemming from it. Only 50% of the blame can be layed at the doorstep of the oppressor, because the other 50% of the blame must dwell with the people that allow tyranny by not organizing into guerilla armies, and eradicating oppression. It deosn't matter whether you're directing your attention to South American Dictatorships, or the 100% corrupt, Inverted-Totalitarian, Police-State of the West, predominately N. America. Duh.
Construction work low paid?
Decades ago a leader of FLOC said we do not need any immigrant labor, we have enough in this country to do the work.
Immigrant labor was imported and employed illegally, thus pulling down wages to the point where they drove out American and legal resident workers.
Now it seems it is construction work that is going that way.
Don't arrest the immigrants, arrest the employers. A few employers going to prison will put Americans back to work faster than all the immigrant crack downs you can imagine.
I was agreeing with you about dictatorships being responsible for the problems, until you went off on the citizens allowing it. The Citizens get little choice, the rich are the criminals.
However, since your comment does not distinguish between the USA and South American dictatorships, you really do need to get your thinking straight.
This type of oppression is consistent, among hundreds of thousands of other oppressive, impoverishment, and murdering of citizens, and not merely citizens of color or immigration status, but all citizens in a country with a 100% corrupt, Inverted-Totalitarian, Police-State Government. And, this tyranny will not only continue, but will continue to increase, as long as it's citizens allow it, out of their total worthlessness.

The tunnels are not only used as a crossing path, but also as a hub for residential advertisements on a harmless, yet partially illegal level. Many new expats in these neighbourhoods go looking for a new home through the tunnels, and old residents advertise there for roommates under self-imposed conditions, with hopes to locate others of similar interests and qualities, such as religious views, gender and career.

Mason Hunt Named to Ray Guy Award Preseason Watch List
Published 2:14 pm Wednesday, July 27, 2022
Augusta, Ga. — The Augusta Sports Council is pleased to announce the preseason watch list for the 2022 Ray Guy Award, which honors the nation's top collegiate punter in the FBS, including Southern Miss redshirt senior Mason Hunt (Wiggins, Miss.).
The 49 candidates on the list, including Hunt, incorporate a broad spectrum of Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) punters. The 2022 watch list was compiled based on the 2021 Ray Guy Award Semifinalist List, the top ten NCAA Punters from 2021, the 2021 All-Conference teams, the 2021 All-American Teams, the 2022 pre-season All-Conference Teams and eligible punters on the 2021 watchlist.
Hunt averaged 43.6 yards over 71 punts last season, including a career-best 63 yarder against UTEP. His punting average was the highest since Tyler Sarrazin notched 44.7 yards per punt in 2016.
The end results of his punting encompassed 40 fair catches, 18 inside the opponent's 20-yardline and 15 of 50 or more yards as he was selected honorable mention All-Conference USA.
The number of eligible candidates for this season will grow when the award opens nominations on July 28. The complete list of candidates will be released on November 2nd. In mid-November, the Ray Guy Award committee will meet to select the ten semifinalists, who will be announced on November 8th. A national body of Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) sports information directors, media representatives and previous Ray Guy Award winners will then vote for the top three finalists to be announced on November 18th. After the finalists are named, the voting body will cast ballots again to select the nation's top punter. The winner will be announced live during The Home Depot College Football Awards airing on ESPN in December 2022.
About the Ray Guy Award
The Augusta Sports Council created the Ray Guy Award in 2000 to honor Thomson, Georgia native and College and Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee, Ray Guy. Among the statistics used to identify the winner is net punting average, number of times punt is downed or kicked out of bounds inside the opponents 20-yard line, total yardage punted, average returned yardage and percentage of punts not returned with particular emphasis placed on net punting average. The winner must display team leadership, self-discipline and have a positive impact on the team's success. Guy is a graduate of Southern Miss.

Traditionally,publishers have viewed websites as content destinations, challengingmarketers to drive traffic to specific websites in order to engageconsumers with relevant content.
Today, the model has changed.Increasingly, publishers are uncoupling online content from its hostsite; marketers are learning to syndicate this content online orencouraging others to do so virally. Jupiter Research has defined this trend as "website deconstruction".
Moreover, emerging andestablished content platforms, including news aggregators, videosharing and social bookmarking sites, enable content to exist on itsown in the online world and allow users to have greater control overits distribution.
Active distribution:Publishers need to first distribute content to multiple users via RSSfeeds to readers, widgets, personalized home pages, news aggregatorsand even mobile devices. A broad list of readers and aggregators can be found here.
Publishers can also syndicatecontent to users by seeding bloggers or by distributing assets tothird-party websites through platforms such as Blogburst, Voxant and Magnify. Each one has a different distribution mechanism. Blogburst facilitates distribution of blog content through 200 established news channels such as Reuters and FoxNews, for example.
Voxant, in contrast,syndicates news from mainstream sources to third-party websites;Magnify distributes video. Magnify provides a widget that can be easilycustomized (based on content preferences) and downloaded ontothird-party sites. Publishers can make their content available for distribution simply by creating a channel on Magnify to do so. Currently, Magnify offers 119 channels of content relating to "Nature and Environment".
Passive or viral distribution:In addition to actively pushing content out to a variety of sources,marketers need to ensure they position their content to be furtherdistributed by consumers.Today, users increasingly share and recommendcontent to their peers. By doing so, individuals not onlyshare content with other users, but they empower these users to makerecommendations to friends and contacts in their networks. Formarketers, such a network effect can have an exponential impact indriving reach; it also costs marketers virtually nothing to achieve.
Examples of users facilitating passive content distribution include sending viral emails, posting video content on YouTube and veoh, bookmarking an article on Digg and del.cio.us or linking to personal pages within MySpace.
While all general interestsites host content related to the environment, there are many websitesthat focus exclusively on the green space. Examples include video sharing sites ecolive.tv, emPivot, Green.tv, GreenEnergyTV, RiverWired and URTH.tv; bookmarking sites ecoblogs, Hugg and hunuh; and a multitude of social networking sites including Care2 and Zaadz.(See also Marketing Green's "Green Marketing on Social Networks" and "Sharing Green Videos Online" postings).
In a conversation with Marketing Green earlier this week, Shmuel Benhamou, a founder of the recently launched ecolive.tv,makes the case for green vertical sites: "Videos are one of the mostefficient and interesting ways to spread the 'green' message throughoutthe world. Yet, today, it is very hard to find goodgreen videos on YouTube and others user generated content sites.Ecolive.tv wants to promote green videos to a targeted audience."
Notably, syndication blurs the lines between publisher and user, as everyone has the chance to distribute content. Moreover, it also blurs the distinction between content, either professionally or user-generated, and advertising. Increasingly, content serves as advertising and advertising is enjoyed as content.
One great example of advertising distributed as content in the green space is a commercial for a European wind energy company, Epuron, syndicated on YouTube.
Marketers:Think differently about your digital strategy. Uncouple content fromspecific websites and distribute directly to users or throughintermediary sites. Encourage consumers to share content with theirpeers and across social networks. If done right, syndication can act asa digital channel accelerator by driving reach and generating impactfar beyond the cost required to facilitate it. It is a must for most marketers today. You scarcely can afford not to.

Are You Ready for Feng Shui Period 9?
Kartar Diamond March 31, 2021 1 Comment
If you are familiar with the classical school of Feng Shui known as Xuan Kong Fei Xing (Flying Star School), you may be aware that we currently live in "Period 8" which ends in February of 2024. Immediately, Period 9 begins then and lasts until February 2044. Just like the last big shift from Period 7 to Period 8, this can bring both excitement and questions for those who adhere to Feng Shui principles.
What are Feng Shui Flying Star "Periods"?
Each new 20-Year Era, called a "Period," instigates a shift in how the unseen energies in all homes and buildings will influence people residing or working inside. Some of the inherent, unseen energies will have a more positive influence and some will have a more negative influence. There are 9 Periods and they each last for 20 years, so the biggest cycle is 180 years in length (9 Periods x 20 years), before the cycles repeat.
When a house is built, energies from the earth below and the Sun above co-mingle to create a defined magnetic field, which is sealed in the structure when the ceiling and roof go on. This time frame is also called a Construction Period. And while there are some Feng Shui practitioners who do calculations based on when the occupant moves in, just as many or more adhere to the traditional Xuan Kong Fei Xing principles which prioritizes the blending of these immense earthly and celestial forces.
The flying star chart is based on year built and compass alignment instead of date of occupancy. This means that if a house does not undergo any radical remodel changes, the same magnetic field will endure in a house or building, decade after decade.
Timely vs. Untimely Stars
What changes over time is the influence of those energies call "flying stars." Each of the eight basic directional zones will have a set of numerical coding called the flying stars and they will "mature" as time goes by.
In any given Period, only one star will be considered "timely" and inherently positive. It is the star which matches the Period. So, in Period 8, the 8 star is considered the best star wherever it lands in a house. The location of the 8 stars (there are two for each chart) will be different depending on the direction of the house's sitting and facing (back and front directions). In Period 9, the location of the two 9 stars in the chart take over as "kings" and become known as the timely or "wang" stars.
Trailing behind the 9 star will be star 1 and 2, which will be in a "shen" or fairly positive phase. The shen stars can be powerful, like a prince waiting to become a king. All the other stars are in a more declining, waning phase called "untimely" because more of their negative features can come out and influence the occupants.
Period 9 is About to be "King"
The change over from one Period to the next will influence everyone. The energies in your own home and work place will shift in their influence, not their location.
As one example: Let us say that you have been sleeping in a bedroom with a permanent 2 earth star. This star has been in a downward cycle for over a hundred years. The last Period 2 we had on this planet was 1884-1904. That was the last time the 2 star was "king" and had the ability to attract wealth and support good health for the occupants.
However, after the last Period 2 ended in 1904 (which began Period 3), the 2 star took on more of the concerning attributes of sickness, loneliness, bleeding, or accidents. The 2 star can also trigger issues with the abdominal area, digestion or miscarriage. This has been a concerning energy for many decades.
The 2 star, however, is about to make a big shift. In Period 9, the 1 and 2 stars both go up a notch and become more positive, second in command to the 9 star. The 2 star in particular will change like being reborn, and will help support good health and well-being, instead of being associated with the exact opposite.
How to Boost the 9 Star to Your Advantage
The 9 star has been steadily getting more positive since Period 7 when it went from being very "untimely" to a better "shen" cycle. Now the 9 star is on the cusp of taking over as the "wang" best star.
Compare this to whenever the 9 star is untimely and associated with fire accidents, explosions and even insanity. Instead of wanting to temper or calm down the 9 fire energy, we practitioners will be recommending that people enhance or nurture the 9 fire star with the Wood element. This is in sync with traditional Five Element Theory. Wood strengthens Fire. More live plants and an abundance of green color will be used in Period 9 with interior décor compared to recent past Periods. If you're wondering why that is, read this article about the elemental association of live plants and how it's used in flying stars.
Predictions for Period 9
Feng Shui practitioners often make predictions about what may happen in certain Periods on a global level. The 9 Fire star is related to the eyes and heart. We could expect some medical advances or breakthroughs related to those body areas. Perhaps they will be monitored or enhanced by A.I. (artificial intelligence).
The 9 star is also related to the mind, so perhaps we will see other powerful shift with A.I. and human interactions. Hopefully a cure for mental illnesses and brain disorders like schizophrenia will come to pass. The 9 fire star is also symbolic of aircraft (tubes propelled by fire energy in the sky), so we may see more advances in aircraft and spacecraft.
Unfortunately, the 9 fire star is still associated with explosions and fires in the destructive sense; even during Period 9 we are not exempt from those events, which includes nuclear energy. The 9 Fire (Li trigram) is also symbolic of a middle-aged woman and a matriarchy in general. While other parts of the world have had female presidents or prime ministers for decades, it is likely that in Period 9 the USA will finally have its first female president.
Preparing for Period 9 When Building or Remodeling Home
When a person is considering building or remodeling a home in these last few years before the shift from Period 8 to Period 9, it is important to work with a highly trained and experienced practitioner who can consider all the factors of how a Period 8 construction will fare throughout Period 9.
Sometimes when I work with clients to design a house using Feng Shui, and we know definitively what direction the new house or building has to face, it becomes fairly easy to decide whether to hurry up and build before the Period shifts, or to wait until after the new Period begins. This influences how the interiors should be laid out, as well as critical outside features like the placement of a pool.
Absolutely love Kartar! She's a Feng Shui Master like none other. I haven't met that many, mind. But, love her way of writing, and explanation.

UAE Delegation Meets Pope
VATICAN CITY // A UAE delegation met Pope Benedict XVI yesterday in the highest-level visit to the Vatican by Emirati officials since the establishment of diplomatic relations with the city state last year.
Abdul Aziz al Ghurair, the speaker of the Federal National Council, who led the delegation, told Pope Benedict, leader of the world's Roman Catholic Christians, the UAE was committed to religious freedom.
"I told His Holiness that the UAE is based on religious tolerance and that we pay great respect to all religious symbols and figures," said Mr Ghurair. "People from more than 200 nationalities live in the UAE and I said that we don't discriminate between religions."
The Vatican and the UAE established diplomatic ties at ambassadorial level in June 2007. The Government is expected to appoint an ambassador soon.
Mr Ghurair told the pope the UAE embraced peace between all nations and religions and the two men discussed building churches in the country, and the UAE's efforts to ensure this could be done.
When Mr Ghurair told Pope Benedict that Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, had given land this month for construction of a church for the Marthoma Christian community in Al Ain, the pope said he knew of the donation.
"I am aware of the construction of churches in the Emirates," the pontiff said. "I respect the efforts of your leadership to promote tolerance."
"I was surprised that he knew about everything I told him about the UAE," Mr Ghurair said.
The few Roman Catholic churches in the UAE are often overcrowded. They have to hold many services in different languages to accommodate the large numbers of Catholic faithful, mainly from the Philippines, India, the Middle East and western Europe, who wish to attend weekly worship. On major Christian feast days, thousands of worshippers have to listen to services from outside.
Mr Ghurair said he told the pope the UAE wanted to establish a strong relationship with the Vatican and to enhance civil and religious contacts. "We expect this relationship to materialise soon," he added.
At present, Archbishop Mounged el Hachem is the Vatican's nuncio or envoy to the country. He resides in Kuwait where he also represents the Vatican.
The UAE delegation's visit comes against the backdrop of a region-wide commitment to interfaith dialogue.
King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia last year became the first Saudi monarch to hold talks at the Vatican when he met Pope Benedict in a move criticised by some Saudis. Commentators said the meeting was hugely symbolic and particularly important to those who believed there should be greater dialogue between Islam and Christianity.
King Abdullah convened Muslim, Christian and Jewish clerics in Madrid in July for talks on reducing religious intolerance. The UAE was represented at the forum.
At an interfaith conference at Yale University in July, religious and political leaders warned that much needed to be done to reach accord between the two faiths. Prince Ghazi bin Muhammad bin Talal of Jordan warned that Muslims and Christians often mistrusted, disrespected and disliked one another.
"Sixty per cent of Christians harbour prejudice against Muslims, and 30 per cent of Muslims reciprocate," he said, citing an international Gallup survey.
The last UAE official to meet the pope was the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan, the nation's founder, who met Pope John Paul II unofficially nearly two decades ago, according to Italian officials.
Mr Ghurair also met Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Vatican secretary of state, who welcomed the Emirati delegation to the Vatican.
Cardinal Bertone said the UAE was a model for co-existence among various religions, adding that dialogue between faiths was possible and that extremists only constituted a limited number of followers of religious faiths.
He also reiterated the importance of paying respect to religious figures and symbols, saying the action of a Danish cartoonist who portrayed the Prophet Mohammed in a manner that caused offence to Muslims could not be considered a case that should be protected by press freedoms.
Paolo Dionisi, Italy's ambassador to the UAE, accompanied the UAE delegation, which also included Dr Mohammed al Mazrouei, the secretary general of the FNC.
Mr Ghurair is heading an FNC delegation to a number of European countries including Italy, Spain and Poland. He is scheduled to meet senior officials, including presidents and prime ministers.
The visit to Italy comes only a few days after Franco Frattini, the Italian foreign minister, visited Abu Dhabi and met his UAE counterpart, Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed, and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi.

then a 4 year old building. My dad and Grandfather insisted the city buy a house across the street at 180 S. Madison owned by Mr. Contopolis, demolish that house and at City expense relocate their building there.
The building was jacked up and then nearly 1000 railroad ties were stacked to make a platform to roll the building across the street on 2 inch solid steel bars (above photo). Amazingly enough the mostly elderly female tenants found the procedure exciting and requested to stay until it was absolutely necessary to go to the hotel. This was way before OSHA was ever thought of and the city only required the tenants to be out while the building was actually moving across the street and being turned around.
It was supposed to take for of 5 days to get the building to its new site but very heavy March rains. While parked on the railroad tie turn table (photo #1) in the middle of the intersection there was a 2 week delay while things dried. I remember the railroad ties at one end sinking 6 inches through the street surface. The building passed the structures to the north and south with only 4 feet clearance (photos 2 & 3). Once lined up on the new site, the tenants moved back in while new foundation walls and piers were formed and poured and I was amazed how everything lined up perfectly when the building was lowered. I was under the building every step of the way.
