Muslim Cleric: Mickey Mouse must Die
First Palestinian children are subjected to Farfur, the mouse character made for the TV Tomorrow's Pioneers. Then they show Farfur beaten to death by an Israeli agent on that same children's show.
But now Sheikh Muhammad Al-Munajid has decided to simplify things by just killing all mice.
Mickey Mouse must die for the good of Islam, a leading Saudi cleric said last month in a broadcast on al-Majd TV.
On Aug 27 Sheikh Muhammad Al-Munajid told viewers of a religious affairs programme that mice were agents of Satan and that Sharia law called for the extermination of all mice: from the common house mouse (Mus musculus) to cartoon mouse (Mickey Mouse).
A former diplomat attached to the Islamic Affairs Department at the Saudi embassy Washington, al-Munajid appears regularly on Saudi television to discuss religious and ethical topics.
On Aug 10 he denounced the Beijing Olympics as the "bikini Olympics," saying the immodest dress of women athletes was "satanic" and earlier issued a fatwa, or religious edict, against women's participation in the Olympics as the games were also "satanic".
Al-Munajid's aversion to sports is not new. In 2005 he denounced soccer, saying the short pants worn by players "reveal nakedness." He called for a ban on women's sports and public exercise as to do so would require them to don "tight fitting, short" tunics that were offensive to Muslim decorum.
According to a translation of the broadcast prepared by the Middle East Media Research Institute, al-Munajid was asked to state the Islamic legal teaching on mice. He responded that mice were called "little corrupters" in Sharia and it was permissible to kill them at all times.
"The mouse is one of Satan's soldiers and is steered by him," he explained, adding that should a mouse come in contact with food, the food must be disposed of as the mouse is an impure creature.
"According to Islamic law, the mouse is a repulsive, corrupting creature," al-Munajid said, adding that he was concerned that popular culture had given mice an undeserved positive image.
"How do you think children view mice today – after Tom and Jerry?" he asked.
"Even creatures that are repulsive by nature, by logic, and according to Islamic law have become wonderful and are loved by children. Even mice. Mickey Mouse has become an awesome character, even though according to Islamic law, Mickey Mouse should be killed in all cases."
Good luck trying to kill a cartoon.

Saudi Judge wants to kill satellite TV owners
It's been mentioned to me many times that "you could easily make a list of things that offend Christians." You sure could, but the difference is that zealots of the non-Muslim variety don't openly make death threats expecting their followers to carry them out. The verse of the sword (9:5) enables Muslim clerics and leaders to issue these threats without retribution from their own community.
BBC-The most senior judge in Saudi Arabia has said it is permissible to kill the owners of satellite TV channels which broadcast immoral programmes.
Sheikh Salih Ibn al-Luhaydan said some "evil" entertainment programmes aired by the channels promoted debauchery.
Dozens of satellite television channels broadcast across the Middle East, where they are watched by millions of Arabs every day.
The judge made the comments on a state radio programme.
He was speaking in response to a listener who asked his opinion on the airing of programmes featuring scantily-dressed women during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
"There is no doubt that these programmes are a great evil, and the owners of these channels are as guilty as those who watch them," said the sheikh.
"It is legitimate to kill those who call for corruption if their evil can not be stopped by other penalties."
Royal dilemma
Given his position as the country's most senior judge, the sheikh's views can not be easily dismissed, says BBC Arab affairs analyst, Magdi Abdelhadi.
Clerics like Sheikh al-Luhaydan represent a huge dilemma for the Saudi royal family, our correspondent adds.
On the one hand, Saudi rulers need their support to claim that they rule in the name of Islam.
But on the other hand, fighting militant Islam can be difficult when the country's top judge calls for the beheading of those he views as immoral broadcasters.

Paul McCartney offends Muslims
Omar Bakri, who once said,
"We are talking about a cancer in the heart of the Muslim world. It must be eradicated and removed"
"We don't make a distinction between civilians and non-civilians, innocents and non-innocents. Only between Muslims and unbelievers. And the life of an unbeliever has no value. It has no sanctity."
Is now saying,
SIR Paul McCartney has been threatened that he will be the target of suicide bombers unless he abandons plans to play his first concert in Israel.
Self-styled preacher of hate Omar Bakri claimed the former Beatle's decision to take part in the Jewish state's 60th anniversary celebrations had made him an enemy of all Muslims.
Sources said Sir Paul was shocked but refused to be intimidated.
In an interview with Israeli media yesterday he said: "I was approached by different groups and political bodies who asked me not to come here. I refused. I do what I think and I have many friends who support Israel."
Sir Paul, 65, should have gone to Israel with the Beatles in 1965 but they were barred by the Jewish nation's government over fears they would corrupt young people.
Yesterday a number of websites described him as an infidel and suggested he was going to Israel only because of the reported £2.3m fee for the one-off concert.
A message posted on one website said: "Shame on you Paul McCartney for day trippin' to apartheid Israel" and vowed never to buy his music again.
Bakri, who made his weekly internet broadcast to fellow extremists from his home in Lebanon, where he has lived in exile since being banned from returning to Britain, said Sir Paul was "making more enemies than friends".
Syrian-born Bakri, 48, went on: "I heard today that the pop star Paul McCartney is playing as a part of the celebrations.
"If you speak about the holocaust and its authenticity never being proved historically in the way the Jewish community portray it, people will arrest you. People will you say you should not speak like this. Yet they go and celebrate the anniversary of 60 years of what? More.
How about 60 years of the only democracy in the Middle East? I'm glad to see McCartney standing up for his rights, and not running from terror.
I'm really very sorry.

911 at NORTHCOM - The Marines and the Babies Seven Years Ago
I couldn't pass up this great post from Backfive.
Mr Wolf sent this as he cannot post right now:
Wolf- Just came from the memorial ceremony here at NORTHCOM. LTC (CH) Robert Leivers led the group in a ceremony here at the headquarters. During the ceremony, he relayed this little-known story from the Pentagon on 9/11:
"During a visit with a fellow chaplain, who happened to be assigned to the Pentagon, I had a chance to hear a first-hand account of an incident that happened right after Flt 77 hit the Pentagon. The Chaplain told me what happened at a daycare center near where the impact occurred.
"This daycare had many children, including infants who were in heavy cribs. The daycare supervisor, looking at all the children they needed to evacuate, was in a panic over what they could do; there were many children, mostly toddlers, as well as the infants that would need to be taken out with the cribs. There was no time to try to bundle them into carriers and strollers.
"Just then a young Marine came running into the center and asked what they needed. After hearing what the center director was trying to do, he ran back out into the hallway and disappeared. The director thought, 'well, there we are- on our own.' About 2 minutes later, that Marine returned with 40 others in tow. Each of them grabbed a crib with a child, and the rest started gathering up toddlers. The director and her staff then helped them take all the children out of the center and down toward the park near the Potomac and the Pentagon.
"Once they got about 3/4 of a mile outside the building, the Marines stopped in the park, and then did a fabulous thing- they formed a circle with the cribs, which were quite sturdy and heavy, like the covered wagons in the West. Inside this circle of cribs, they put the toddlers, to keep them from wandering off. Outside this circle were the 40 Marines, forming a perimeter around the children and waiting for instructions. There they remained until the parents could be notified and come get their children."
Wolf: The NORTHCOM chaplain then said- "I don't think any of us saw nor heard of this on any of the news stories of the day. It was an incredible story of our men there.''
I must say- there wasn't a dry eye in the room. The thought of those Marines and what they did and how fast they reacted- could we expect any less from them?? It was one of the most touching stories from the Pentagon I've EVER heard.

Remembering John P O' Neill
Reposted from last year.
Part of the 2,996 tribute. List of participants.
John P O' Neill was born on February 6, 1952, in Atlantic City, New Jersey. At an early age, he professed a desire to become an FBI agent. Staying true to his dream, O' Neill obtains a master's degree in forensics and starts out as a fingerprint clerk for the FBI. While in his first year of college, John marries his high school sweetheart, Christine O' Neill. By 1976 , O' Neill is a full fledged FBI agent.
After 15 years of experience, O' Neill is promoted to assistant special agent in charge of the Chicago field office. O' Neill established the Fugitive Task Force in an effort to increase communication skills between the FBI and local agencies.
In 1995 he returned to the Nation's capital and took charge of counter-terrorism. The World Trade Center had been bombed a few years before and the man behind the attack, Ramzi Yousef, was the most wanted terrorist of the time. O'Neill continued to gather information on Islamic terrorists and was noted for his communication skills.
""In a (11/96) speech at the Explosives Detection Symposium and Aviation Security Technology Conference in New Jersey, O'Neill tells the audience that "interesting times lie ahead" and that the main terrorist threat now comes from transnational groups not backed by national governments. He also warns, "We see the intent is for a large number of casualties.""" But his style and personal frustration with officials who didn't seem receptive to the idea of a growing threat of Islamic terror may have cost O' Neill in the eyes of some.
Barry Mawn; ""Probably it would be his James Bond-type style, as opposed to the substance. The sharp elbows and being abrasive, this didn't particularly bother me. But I think it bothered some people. John liked to be viewed as the guy in charge. I had heard stories, probably before I got there, that he was "Mr. New York." He was the FBI in New York. If you needed anything or wanted anything, you had to go through John. I think he also enjoyed having the contacts, liaison, being a power broker, the Elaine's.""
O'Neill continued to warn of growing threats of terrorism, saying that modern groups are not supported by governments and that there are terrorist cells operating within the United States. He also complained that Soviet war in Afghanistan had unwittingly produced a security threat, and cautioned that the millinium had left the agency with too few resources to cover the threats.
After the bombing of the USS Cole in Yemen, O' Neill has the forsight to warn the agency of domestic threats and reccomends that New York be named the lead office of the investigation. Three years before 9/11, O' Neill was obsessed with Osama Bin Laden, three US embasssy's are attacked in 1998 Fran Townshend: """John completely throws himself into this. He's reading everything he can get his hands on about radical fundamentalism. So I think it was probably before World Trade Center that this issue of radical fundamentalism sort of raises itself on his scope. He's already beginning to focus on it before the first World Trade Center, and think about it and look at the implications of it.
By the time the first World Trade Center bombing happens, from things he said to me, he's already got in his mind this is a major and long-term problem for us that we are ill-equipped to deal with. Not because we lack the commitment to deal with it, but because it's a mindset he's now read, he's studied it. He really believes this is a mindset that will be so difficult to us to counter because it's so alien to us, the whole thinking of it, that he's not sure we're well prepared to deal with it. ...""
Dr Janet Parker; ""One of John O'Neill's most important contributions to counter terrorism investigation was his wonderful ability to maintain communication with a wide range of contacts. I was, just one, of these seemingly inconsequential contacts. This extensive network of personal contacts contributed to his full understanding of the evil he faced. Through my contact with John O'Neill I gained a more fuller appreciation of the hard work and sacrifices of those who gather intelligence about terrorists.""
Watch Frontline's "The Man Who Knew"
In July of 2001, O' Neill hears that the World Trade Center needs a new security chief and retires from the FBI, knowing full well what he was getting into;
""According to Chris Isham, O'Neill recognized the threat still posed to the World Trade Center. "When he had first gotten the job at the World Trade Center, he told me, 'I've got this great job. I'm head of security at the World Trade Center.' And I joked with him and said, 'Well, that will be an easy job. They're not going to bomb that place again.' And he said, 'Well actually -- he immediately came back and he said, 'actually they've always wanted to finish that job. I think they're going to try again.""
John P O' Neill was a visionary investigator who's dedication to the security of his fellow Americans cost him his life on September 11, 2001.
O'Neill is in his 34th floor office in the North Tower at 8:46 a.m. when American Airlines Flight 11 crashes into it. Among others, O'Neill calls Valerie James once he is outside the building. He asks her what hit the building and tells her, "Val, it's horrible. There are body parts everywhere." A few seconds later he tells her, "Okay, I'll call you in a little bit." O'Neill also sends a text message to Fran Townsend to report that he is okay.
In the minutes after the attack, O'Neill makes his way to the command center that had been set up. There he sees FBI agent Wesley Wong. Wong would tell Esquire magazine later, "He was in FBI mode. Then he turned and kind of looked at me and went toward the interior of the complex. From the time John walked away to the time the building collapsed was certainly not more than a half hour or 20 minutes." Wong is the last person to see him alive.
A week after his body is found in the debris of the South Tower, about a thousand mourners attend John O'Neill's service in Atlantic City. Barry Mawn, one of the speakers, tells the gathering that O'Neill didn't resign from the FBI because of the briefcase incident. Mawn says that he felt it was important to clear up some of the things people were saying about O'Neill's departure. "He didn't run from a fight. He didn't retire because this was a serious matter. He retired because circumstances were right and it was a good job," Mawn tells FRONTLINE.
Following the service, John O'Neill is buried in the churchyard of St. Nicholas of Tolentine Church, the church where he once served as an altar boy.

Andrew Lloyd Webber bemoans Political Correctness
Why keep a List of things that offend Muslims? It's not just to stem the tide of appeasement, but to make people aware of where that appeasement eventually leads. The concepts of sharia, dhimmitude and jihad are designed to crush dissent and have no place in a free society.
DW-Together with Tim Rice, Lord Lloyd-Webber began his theatre career with two shows that drew on Christian tradition - Jesus Christ Superstar and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
Now theatreland's most successful composer, who is currently planning a new BBC talent search to find a Dorothy for a West End production of The Wizard of Oz, has spoken of his fears that political correctness is stifling creativity.
In an interview looking back on his triumphs, Lord Lloyd-Webber said: "I'm lucky to have had such a successful career. I'm actually lucky enough to have always done as I want.
"I look back at when I was younger and ask myself would I have written an opera with Tim Rice? So many people nowadays are obsessed with things offending people. Today people say you can't do this because it will offend that community, and then you can't say this because the Muslims will be offended by it and we'll end up being talked out of it. Talked out of ideas. Whereas when I was 20 I didn't think about those things - you could just do it." Read on.
How long will Webber's "luck" hold out?

The property gardens are vast and feature an extraordinary rose garden which can be illuminated at night and is ideal for a dreamy picture backdrop. On the grounds, you will also find an impeccably restored Gothic chapel, where 50-70 people can be seated at a traditional ceremony, but nuptials can also be held anywhere on the grounds. The on-site wedding coordinator is happy to help you figure out the details.
Understated yet grand, The Secret Hamlet is a venue that never ceases to impress. Weddings are held here in true fairytale fashion. The estate is covered in creeping vines and situated on top of a hill with grounds sloping down to the River L'Anglin. The days leading up to your wedding can be a time of calm reflection in this peaceful little corner of France.
The grounds are home to six dwellings apart from the main chateau, each with private gardens, unique personalities and storybook atmospheres (one house has a terrace overlooking the river).

Chateau des Marquis has a private chapel on its expansive grounds, as well as a Banquet Hall and bar. It truly makes an exceptional wedding venue.
At Chateau des Joyaux you can have fairy-tale castle entirely suited to your own vision, from low-key and romantic to a large-scale, high-end celebration.

Completed in 1854 as a private residence, this miniature castle is an architectural wonder invoking an era of glamour that is perfect for a truly romantic French wedding.
Imagine your wedding party dancing on a lakeside terrace under a star-encrusted sky, by a vast magical lake lit up to reflect the century-old trees and the fairy tale white castle in the background. Chateau Crystal is the venue where you can have all that and more.
The chateau has a small private chapel on the rounds for a more intimate affair, or similarly, an outdoor ceremony can be organised on the magical private island.

Alternatively, host your celebrations on the superb 105-acre grounds.

A Man Leaves His Island
HUMANITARIAN AFFAIRS : Climate Change, Water, Population, Migration, Oceania, Oceans, Risk
2013•10•30 Eilif Ursin Reed Center for International Climate and Environmental Research

Recently a news story about a man seeking asylum in New Zealand as a climate change refugee made headlines all over the world. His original appeal to the Immigration and Protection Tribunal of New Zealand was dismissed in June 2013 because, according to the tribunal, he is not a considered a refugee under the terms laid out in the international Convention and Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees. He is now asking the New Zealand High Court to let him appeal this case.
"There's no future for us when we go back to Kiribati," Ioane Teitiota told the appeal tribunal, adding that a return to his tiny Pacific atoll would pose a risk to his children's health, according to Reuters.
The relationship between climate change and migration is complicated. And pointing to climate change as the main factor affecting the living conditions on small island states is difficult.
People such as inhabitants on small island states, in many cases find themselves caught between wrongs of the past and the future consequences of these wrongs, explains Ilan Kelman, Reader in Risk, Resilience and Global Health at University College London.
Kelman points out that many island states are still struggling with the effects of colonialism, post-colonialism, modernism, forced relocation efforts and misguided aid, as well as the consequences of greenhouse gas emissions, mainly from the rich countries of the world.
No matter how the New Zealand High Court concludes on Mr. Teitiotas' appeal, his story is also a story about the nation of Kiribati, as an icon for other islands regarding the challenges they face concerning overpopulation, resource management, poverty, sea level rise and climate change.
The following text is adapted from the official decision from the Immigration and Protection Tribunal of New Zealand.
Ioane Teitiota was born in the 1970s on an islet situated three days journey by boat, or two hours by plane, north of Tarawa, the main island and capital of Kiribati.
As is common in the Kiribati island group, his home island is a low-lying atoll with houses built on coral debris which has accreted over time. When in his early teens, he was sent to school on a nearby island.
The Republic of Kiribati is a vast island nation in the Pacific Ocean comprising 32 atolls and one raised coral island, Banaba, dispersed over 3.5 million square kilometres. The population of just over 100,000 inhabits an area approximately 800 square kilometres. Map: Wikimedia.
In 2002, Teitiota married his wife and moved in with her family in another village situated on Tarawa. He lived there with his wife's family in a traditionally constructed dwelling which had been built on coral, which had accreted on a sea wall built some years previously. The dwelling was situated on ground level and had electricity. Water was obtained from a well and from supplies provided by the Government. There were no sewerage facilities.
Over time, the villages on Tarawa in which Teitiota resided became overcrowded. People travelled to Tarawa from outlying islands because this was where most government services such as the main hospital were located. Land was purchased from existing landholders or acquired through kinship ties to Tarawa.
As the villages became overcrowded, tensions were generated and there were often physical fights in which people were injured, and on occasion, killed. When this happened, the police intervened, taking the injured to the hospital and arresting those responsible.
Life generally became progressively more insecure on Tarawa as a result of sea level rise. From the late 1990s onwards, Tarawa suffered significant amounts of coastal erosion during high tides. Also the land surface was regularly flooded and land could be submerged up to knee-deep during king tides. Transportation was affected as the main causeway separating north and south Tarawa was often flooded.
This caused significant hardship for Teitiota, his wife and family as well as other inhabitants on Tarawa. The wells upon which they depended for water became salty. Salt water was deposited onto the ground destroying crops. Crops were difficult to grow and the land was stripped of vegetation in many places.
The Government's supplies of water are coming under pressure through overpopulation and because people can increasingly no longer rely on well water for an alternative source. The sea wall in front of the Teitiota's parents-in-law's house was often damaged and required constant repair. The family existed largely by subsistence fishing and agriculture. One of the appellant's brothers-in-law works at a local government port agency and provides cash income for the whole family as best as he is able. However, life is generally becoming more difficult.

Teitiota and his wife wished to have a family. However, they were concerned that the information they were receiving from television, media and from other sources meant that there would be no possibility of living on Tarawa. They therefore decided to emigrate to New Zealand. The appellant's parents live on his home island but they face similar environmental pressures and population pressures.
He was aware that the Government was taking what steps it could. The Government has bought land in Fiji to grow crops to sustain the livelihoods of the people in Kiribati. In his area the Government has also built sea walls but these are ineffective and are prone to frequent damage. However, it was powerless to stop sea level rise.
He also accepted that his experiences were common to people throughout Kiribati. He had been in contact with his family and understood they were facing similar problems in his home island. His relatives whom he had lived with when he initially moved to Tarawa moved to another island and they too were experiencing similar problems. There was simply no land anywhere in Kiribati for the family to relocate and avoid the onset of sea level rise.

Politics|Obama Signs Overhaul of Student Loan Program
Obama Signs Overhaul of Student Loan Program
By PETER BAKER and DAVID M. HERSZENHORN MARCH 30, 2010
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — President Obama signed legislation on Tuesday to expand college access for millions of young Americans by revamping the federal student loan program in what he called "one of the most significant investments in higher education since the G.I. Bill."
Mr. Obama went to a community college where the wife of his vice president teaches to draw attention to the student loan overhaul attached to the final piece of health care legislation that passed last week. In signing the bill, Mr. Obama put the final touches on his health care program but used the occasion to highlight the education provisions.
"That's two major victories in one week," he told students and guests at the Alexandria campus of Northern Virginia Community College, where Jill Biden teaches English. While he praised the health care overhaul, the president said, "what's gotten overlooked amid all the hoopla, all the drama of last week, is what's happened with education."

The new law will eliminate fees paid to private banks to act as intermediaries in providing loans to college students and use much of the nearly $68 billion in savings over 11 years to expand Pell grants and make it easier for students to repay outstanding loans after graduating. The law also invests $2 billion in community colleges over the next four years to provide education and career training programs to workers eligible for trade adjustment aid after dislocation in their industries.
The law will increase Pell grants along with inflation in the next few years, which should raise the maximum grant to $5,975 from $5,550 by 2017, according to the White House, and it will also provide 820,000 more grants by 2020.
Students who borrow money starting in July 2014 will be allowed to cap repayments at 10 percent of income above a basic living allowance, instead of 15 percent. Moreover, if they keep up payments, their balances will be forgiven after 20 years instead of 25 years — or after 10 years if they are in public service, like teaching, nursing or serving in the military.
Mr. Obama portrayed the overhaul of the student loan program as a triumph over an "army of lobbyists," singling out Sallie Mae, the nation's largest student lender, which he said spent $3 million on lobbying to stop the changes. "For almost two decades, we've been trying to fix a sweetheart deal in federal law that essentially gave billions of dollars to banks," he said. The money, he said, "was spent padding student lenders' pockets."

But Sallie Mae said the law would cost jobs, telling news outlets that it may have to eliminate a third of its 8,500 positions nationwide. Senator Lamar Alexander, a Republican whose state of Tennessee is home to big players in the private student lending industry, said the changes over all would cost 31,000 private-sector jobs.
In a statement, Mr. Alexander said students would be overcharged on their loans with the proceeds to be used to pay for the health care law, and he bemoaned the government's getting more deeply into the lending business. "The Obama administration's motto," he said, "is turning out to be: 'If we can find it in the Yellow Pages, the government ought to try to do it.' "
The House Republican leader, Representative John A. Boehner of Ohio, criticized both the health and education components of the bill, calling them "two job-killing government takeovers that are already hurting our economy."
Mr. Boehner added, "As the White House continues to 'sell' this new law, we are seeing the same pattern we've seen for the past year: the more the American people learn about it, the less they like it."

More reminiscent of the Rhône Valley than California, this blend of Grenache Blanc, Viognier and Roussanne comes from a small Sonoma vineyard within the Pangloss family. As the name suggests, this wine is our way of showing gratitude to Optimist Society Members.
If you're on the hunt for an adventurous flavor profile that offers something more exciting than conventional white wines, this is your answer. Perfect for foodies, this is a versatile choice with a variety of dishes because of its crisp acidity.
Ever since our friends Bill and Nancy Charles began farming their Anderson Valley vineyard in 2001, it has become one of the most sought-after sites for Pinot Noir in California. This wine is a particular favorite of ours, as its earthy complexity stands out as one of the signatures of outstanding Pinot Noir from this idyllic outpost.
Anderson Valley has vaulted rapidly to the forefront of New World Pinot Noir. True North serves as a reference point for the style of Pinot Noir we pursue at Pangloss – one with layers of savory ripeness tempered by precise acidity, and the promise to age with grace and delicacy.
For the dedicated Rhône wine lover, the discovery of a compelling California Grenache is an unexpected delight. Perched above the fog line at nearly 2,700 feet, Alder Springs Vineyard produces a Grenache with a layered flavor profile anchored by crisp acidity and luscious fruit.
Like the wines of Châteauneuf-du-Pape that inspired it, Tenacity is anchored by Grenache's bright fruit and acidity. Moving in tandem with its savory companion Mourvèdre, this wine showcases the impressive potential of Rhône-inspired wines in Sonoma soil.
Our inaugural release of this single-vineyard Syrah from Alder Springs Vineyard makes us wish this pristine, isolated site produced a lot more fruit. Spicy and rich, this wine captures the purity and structure of one of the most unique vineyards in California.
The extraordinary 2014 vintage and an iconic vineyard combined to produce an exceptional wine that truly celebrates Sonoma. This Cabernet Sauvignon displays all the gorgeous character we've come to expect from Monte Rosso, including dense structure, balanced acidity and a long finish.
This is our first Optimism with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc combined into a Bordeaux-style blend, and we're proud to say it reflects the refinement and complexity of the legendary French wines that inspired it.

The Origin of Truverra
By Supreme DigitalAugust 14, 2019November 12th, 2020No Comments
Mr. Brad Stott, a co-founder of Truverra Inc., was diagnosed with stage three prostate cancer in 2010. "At that time there was very little research being done in this field," Brad commented. Inspired by his own success, an approach that included diet, specialized supplements, exercise, and cannabinoid therapy, Mr. Stott became passionate about scientific developments in cannabinoid and terpene R&D. He is now leading partnership initiatives for Truverra
Inc. in Canada, liaising with academic institutions and patient advocacy groups as well as government to bring Truverra's name and research ambitions to the fore.
Truverra (Europe) BV is pleased to announce the launch of its higher-quality Cannabidiol (CBD) portfolio of Supplements, Medical Devices, and Cosmetics in the UK and Netherlands – all of these extracted from Certified prime quality European hemp. (Cannabis Sativa L). In addition to its 'made in Europe' approach, many of these formulations have been developed to ensure consumers receive the maximum potential from their CBD products by utilizing a liposomal delivery system that allows a higher percentage of CBD to reach the endocannabinoid system in a shorter period of time.
Dr. Colin Jennison, a former organic chemistry professor at Ryerson University and VP of Laboratory Operations for Truverra Inc, stated, "there are over 140 cannabinoids and over 200 terpenes that have been discovered in the past 50 years. We are only beginning to understand the ways that these remarkable compounds interact with the body and how they can help in a wide range of medical conditions. More research is needed in this exciting area and Truverra is pleased to be at the forefront of this effort with like-minded partners in Europe."
Over the coming months, Truverra plans to open up its product range to other countries.

Pollineering
Bringing stability and predictability to crops and farmers through environmentally-friendly electrostatics pollination
You are here: Home / Archives for China
A Need, A Problem & A Solution
Food is essential for life, and a desperate need to better secure the global food supply exists. "Some 795 million people in the world do not have enough food to lead a healthy active life", about one in nine. "Poor nutrition causes nearly half (45%) of deaths in children under five—3.1 million children each year." The global nature of the need is very large.
China dwarfs all other markets both in production, need and consumption. With one-sixth of the world's population lives in China, Chinese authorities are already concerned about the fate of bees and other pollinating insects. Asia is already the continent with the most hungry people with two-thirds of the world's under-nourished. Internally, China is the largest consumer of food crops in the world. China has the fastest growing middle class in the world. China's national consumption of fruits and vegetables is growing rapidly as their dietary demands are changing and increasing in proportion to their increasing prosperity.
In the last 50 years, the global human population has nearly doubled, while the average calories consumed per person has increased by about 30%. Predictions state that 70% more food will be needed by 2050. At the same time, farmable land is being lost at more than a million acres a year. Drought and unusual weather causes pollination gaps which traditional farming cannot solve, no matter how many bees are brought in. Suffice it to say, there are many challenges to global food security.
Without pollination, plants don't bear fruit. Insects are vital for the pollination of many kinds of plants. One-third of all the food we eat is insect pollinated which translates into a yearly food crop market of about US$270 billion worldwide. The USA market is US$19 billion.
Other non-food markets, such as cotton and alfalfa, can benefit from better pollination. Bees, the chief insect pollinator, have been dying off at record numbers around the world due to Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD).
Source: USGS Bee Inventory and Monitory Lab
In addition to the loss of crop yield due to CCD, prices for bee-based pollination have been on a sharp upswing. In the USA, the costs for pollinating crops, such as almonds, has increased by 400% since 2004. In response this last year, almond farmers moved 1.6 million bee hives into California almond orchards from around the USA and as far away as Australia.
CCD is a syndrome wherein all of the adult bees in a bee colony suddenly die leaving a live queen, larva, and immature bees behind. Without the adult bees, who are the workers, these survivors soon die, as well. While several theories exist, no one specific scientific cause for CCD has been proven.
However, this is not the only risk faced by bee colonies. The United States Department of Agricultural Research Services has stated:
[CCD] is far from the only risk to the health of honey bees and the economic stability of commercial beekeeping and pollination operations in the United States. Since the 1980s, honey bees and beekeepers have had to deal with a host of new pathogens from deformed wing virus to nosema fungi, new parasites such as Varroa mites, pests like small hive beetles, nutrition problems from lack of crop diversity or availability in pollen and nectar sources, and possible sub-lethal effects of pesticides. These problems, many of which honey bees might be able to survive if each were the only one, are often hitting in a wide variety of combinations, and weakening and killing honey bee colonies. CCD may even be a result of a combination of two or more of these factors and not necessarily the same factors in the same order in every instance.
CCD, drought, temperature differentiations from climate change, construction and plant disease are some of the risks farmers face globally. Because we depend on farmers for food, all other segments in the society suffer from these losses through increased food costs, poverty and hunger.

Pollineering is a agricultural company fundamentally transforming agriculture by giving farmers direct control over pollination, thus enabling greater yields while decreasing risk. Th is is done through an innovative mechanical pollination technology that addresses a large number of pollination concerns held by farmers.
Without pollination, plants cannot bear fruit. Bee colonies are vital for the pollination of many kinds of plants. A plant cannot produce more than its level of pollination, which is a major limiting factor. CCD has led to steady decline of bees at an alarming rate. Other factors, such as unusual weather or temperatures, can cause pollination gaps in cross pollinated crops, even when adequate pollinators are available. Pollineering provides the technology, products and services to optimize pollination (with or without bees) in spite of weather-caused pollination gaps. Additionally, it allows farmers to consolidate the harvest by pollinating all the plants at the same time during the blossom season.
Source: Dartmouth Electron Microscope Facility
Pollineering sources 100% natural (non-GMO) pollen for each variety of crop from outstanding suppliers which can ensure high quality and disease-free products. We use the highest quality control to insure pollen viability and purity. We then mix this pure pollen into our proprietary slurry.
Pollineering uses specially equipped electrostatic sprayer technology to spray the pollen slurry mixture on the crop. The electrostatic charge helps the pollen attach to the stigma of the flower, much like lint to a suit, to efficiently pollinate the flowers. Our licensed slurry also protects the pollen, allows a greater electrostatic charge to increase stigmatic receptivity and adhesion, and nourishes the pollen, enhancing pollen tube growth.

Nick Viall And Rachel Bilson Are Flirting On Instagram
By: Dylan Hafer / September 16, 2019
Honestly, every single Bachelor alum needs to chill out. This morning, I was in the middle of writing an article about how Mike Johnson is hanging out with Demi Lovato, when someone sent me a brand new story about how Nick Viall and Rachel Bilson might be a thing. It's a tough time when I have to interrupt thinking about Bachelor Nation's next power couple to think about Bachelor Nation's next next power couple. Seriously, it's too much.
Out of all the Bachelor guys who have been linked to more famous women, Nick might make the most sense. After his appearance on four different Bachelor shows, he's one of the best-known people in the franchise, and he's always had kind of a celeb energy. He even dated January Jones, way back when Tyler Cameron was just a twinkle in Gigi Hadid's eye.
But in the year and a half since Nick and January split up, he's mostly just been single. Enter: Rachel Bilson. In the past, she famously dated her The OC costar Adam Brody, and she was engaged to Hayden Christensen until approximately two years ago. Since then, she's kept her personal life low-key, and we don't really know anything about who she's been seeing for the last couple of years.
Back in July, Rachel Bilson was a guest on Nick's podcast The Viall Files, which wasn't really suspicious. He often has pretty good guests, and their conversation didn't suggest that they were dating. Rachel said that she was dating, but hadn't met anyone that she would introduce to her daughter. She said that "It would have to be a very serious relationship," and that it's a major red flag for her if a guy doesn't seem enthusiastic about her daughter.
Her podcast appearance itself didn't raise a lot of questions, but Nick's Instagram post about the episode definitely made me raise an eyebrow.
Will we choose to forgo our individual rooms…
A post shared by Nick Viall (@nickviall) on Jul 23, 2019 at 5:35pm PDT
How dare he tease us with a caption about fantasy suites?! This is unacceptable! But while Nick's caption was funny, Rachel's comment on the post sent me into a full-blown stress spiral.
Oh. My. God. The thing is, this could purely be two friends joking around, or it could be public foreplay. The flirty comments worked for Mike and Demi! While this happened a couple months ago, these two have still been interacting on Instagram more recently. Nick comments on a lot of her photos, and he commented on her most recent pic this weekend.
Most of Nick's comments 0n Rachel's photos are like this. It's the kind of thing a middle school boy would say to his crush, and then she's not sure if he hates her or wants to be her boyfriend. Honestly, this checks out for Nick Viall, because I feel like he exudes the emotional maturity of a middle school boy.
While these comments aren't enough to assume that they're officially dating or anything, I could definitely see it happening. This stuff would be kind of typical if they were seeing each other, but wanted to keep it low-key. Because of her appearance on his podcast, they don't have to keep it a secret that they know each other, and now we all have to keep guessing about whether something more is going on.
So yeah, Nick Viall and Rachel Bilson may or may not be dating, and at this point we just don't know. At this point, I'm already on the look out for the next next next Bachelor/celeb pairing, because it's only a matter of time. Will Blake date a country music star? Will someone date Scheana from Vanderpump Rules? It's a new world, and these are just the rules now.

These are strong words: "How foolish you are, and how slow to believe … !" Words like these can make people defensive.
Jesus spoke these words to wake up the disciples and give them a new understanding of life. The disciples needed to move from a place of blindness to a place of sight. They saw the death of Jesus as an obstacle and a loss, while it actually was the greatest victory in history. They had heard that Jesus was alive again, risen from the dead, but they were stuck in a place of complaint and were unable to see that Jesus had enabled them to receive the gift of life. They needed strong medicine to heal their blindness.
God's Word is needed in our lives too. As God's people, we are part of a sacred story. Yet we often live as if this world is all there is. We are so captured by what we can see that we miss the unseen. A spoken word is needed from the One who is the fulfillment of prophecy. As he joins us on the road and explains Scripture to us, his presence sets our hearts burning.
New possibilities open up for us as we recognize Jesus and all he has done for us to give us new life. In thankfulness we welcome into our lives the one who makes our hearts burn.
Jesus, we confess that our hardened hearts have blocked you out. "Open the eyes of our hearts, Lord," so that we can see who you are and that you want us to fully live. Receive us, we pray, in your name. Amen.


Love the door stickers, was thinking bout putting another variation of them on the rzr doors.
You'll like those tires. The sweet spot seems to be 6-8 lbs with them. Got a few buddies that run them. I tries to buy them when they first came out for my jeep but 35s were on back order for 3 months. Ended up going with BFG KM2 since I thought I would drive my Jeep. Should of just stuck with swampers and kept a trailer queen.
"...tears up the dirt road in her duallie, dangerous, absolutely....she aint right"


Q: What went through your head when you saw some space after you made that cut?
A: You're just so locked in the moment and you're just living in the moment that you really don't even notice what's going on in your head, but the offensive line did a great job with blocking up front, creating space. Evan (Engram) made an unbelievable block there and I was able to create some space and get a big gain.
Q: Eli has been quizzing you on routes. Was that something that had been drawn out before for you?
A: You mean some other quarterbacks I've played with? No. I've never really been quizzed on routes. He actually does quiz me like he's my teacher. It's been very helpful to me, just sort of checks and balances, making sure where I need to be, my mindset is where it needs to be, know where I need to be at especially in the route formation and the route scheme, just to help other routes open up.
Q: I know this wasn't a game that counted, but it was your first time under the lights in the pros. What was your emotion coming in and what did it feel like during the game?
A: It was kind of weird. I was talking to a lot of guys there. For some reason I didn't get nervous, I didn't really get anxious. It was kind of a weird feeling. They said it would probably hit me when the national anthem goes off, but I kind of just got locked in so quick, I just have been preparing for this moment for my whole life and being able to play in the NFL, and I didn't want any other thing to ruin it. If I had broken a long run, no, I just wanted to go out there and enjoy, and have fun, and take advantage of every rep and every opportunity I got.
Q: Did you expect to feel nervous? Did you want to be nervous?
A: Yeah, I expected to be nervous because since high school on, I was nervous in high school – not nervous, I think anxious is the word, because nervous is kind of like you're scared. I just needed that first hit, I was just so ready for that moment, it was kind of weird. One of the coaches told me that he said it's going to get worse, don't worry, so definitely preparing for that. Just excited to live my life and live the dream I planned.
Q: You only get one shot to make a first impression. Is it satisfying that that is how Giants fans saw you for the first time?
A: I think it was more satisfying to me just because of the scenario. We were backed up tight, to be able to get us out running from, I think we were on the 12-yard line, and then to break out a 40-yard run really [helped] our offense out and we had a great drive. We just got to find a way to finish it. It was more exciting in that it was helping the team out, we were getting a drive started, starting off quick, more than making a first impression.
Q: What are two or three aspects of the game you really focused on?
A: One definitely was pass [protection], knowing what I needed to do and seeing my guys. I didn't really get a chance to pick up a block today. I didn't have one to pick up really, it wasn't my responsibility, and being patient in the run game, creating a pull, setting up pulls. The third thing was being me, go back to being me. I have so many people outside of my family saying I've got to do this, I've got to be this, they have expectations for this and that, but the main focus was just to put that all aside, put that all to rest and not even focus on it. Just go out there and be a little kid again and play football.
Q: What are you looking forward to [moving forward]?
A: Learning. Learning throughout the whole game, even though I wasn't in the second, third, or fourth quarter, and I split reps with [Jonathan Stewart] in the beginning and learn from his reps, learn from [Robert Martin] who played amazing, and [Simmons] who played amazing, learn from Wayne [Gallman Jr.] and continue to grow as a player.
...(electrifying) run in the NFL.
We had double TEs to the right**, and although neither TEs nor the Guard/Tackle tandem got any real movement, they all were able to stay on their blocks.
And that's what makes Saquon so scary. Just get a hat on someone and he'll do the rest.
**And they were both in 3-point stances... how about that!!!
...Patrick Omameh was uncovered and managed to get a very nice seal block on Cleveland's left inside LB, Joe Schobert.
Schobert stepped to the inside because the play was designed to go inside, so he made it easy for Omameh to seal him off when Barkley bounced it outside and up.

Wetgevende Vergadering (Qonunchilik palatasi) - lagerhuis, 150 leden;
Senaat (Senat) - hogerhuis, 100 leden.

Tot 2005 was de Oliy Majlis (1994-) de benaming van het eenkamerparlement van Oezbekistan. Van 1938 tot 1991 kende de Oezbeekse SSR de Opperste Sovjet als parlement, opgevolgd (na de onafhankelijkheid in 1991) door de Opperste Raad van de Republiek Oezbekistan (1991-1994).

Freddy and the Dreamers are back on Elm Street, and something tells me they're into nothing good. Unfortunately that's also true of director Stephen Hopkins, who never gets hold of "A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child" with anywhere near the ferocity old Pizza Face (Robert Englund) displays when he gets hold of disposable teenagers. As a result, "5" has none of the pizazz of "1" and "3" and is only marginally better than "2" and "4," the worst of the "Elms."
This time around, the plot is more confusing than ever, though Hopkins visualizes the Bedlam-born legend of Freddy Krueger and Sister Amanda before getting around to the usual nightmare/murders that fuel this series' box office killings. They're not particularly interesting, except for the demise of a punkish comic book illustrator. In two all-too-brief scenes here, Hopkins segues to animation styles without extending them far enough. One good touch: After the artist has transformed himself into an action hero, Super Freddy renders him into a cardboard cutout, and as he's slashed to pieces, the colors drain out of him.
On the downside: An attempt to bring M.C Escher's famous multi-planed stairwell print to life during the finale.
The connecting thread between "4" and "5" is Dream Master Alice (Lisa Wilcox), who seemed to have Freddy well in hand in the previous finale (though she's forgotten all her psy-fi karate). This time around she's pregnant by a soon-to-be-late boyfriend, and don't you just know Freddy figures out he can do his dirty deeds through the fetus's dream state. Actually this makes no sense at all, but that doesn't save Alice's high school clique. There's also a creepy 10-year-old boy (Whitby Hertford) who's part dream, part premonition and all plot facilitator.
As for Englund, he still looks as if he's been working at Domino's too long, and he still sounds as if he's stealing his material from Don Rickles (though the jokes are minimal this go-round). Those who wondered what Mr. Krueger looked like as a tiny terror may appreciate David Miller's Baby Freddy, but most of the dream sequences and special effects are as flat as the wave patterns on the filmmakers' brain scans.
"A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child" is rated R and contains the usual profanity, art-gore and subtle nudity.

This does not mean that there was no grace under Moses, or that there was no truth under Moses. Nor does it mean that there is no law under Jesus Christ. We have already seen that grace is not license. Paul says that he was not without law to God, but under the law of Christ (1 Cor. 9:21).
God had never wanted animal sacrifices or sin offerings above all else. He had simply wanted people to carry out his will! But even the most pious and faithful Jew had always failed to do God's will (because that is what we have seen to be the universal state of fallen humans), and had to offer sacrifices for sin instead. Jesus did not come to offer more animal sacrifices. He came to do what God had always wanted but what no person had ever yet done: TO DO THE WILL OF GOD! As a MAN, He would do what NO OTHER had done. God gave Jesus a body for that purpose.He came to do the will of God. Not only that, He DID the will of God perfectly in his human body. Jesus then offered that body for OUR sins.
Here is the grace of God! It is a great swap-out! It comes through Jesus Christ. In Jesus of Nazareth, the God of the universe became man — made in the likeness of man — came to be like sinful flesh. He was actually and really one of us, though he was still deity. But, unlike us, Jesus did not sin. Instead he did the will of God perfectly in his human body. Then the only sinless man who ever lived died a cruel death for sinners like you and me who will never deserve anything else than death.


A lot of computer users on campus believe that they don't have any sensitive data on their computers. Some of them no doubt are correct, but many of them are mistaken.
PII can lurk in many places on a user's computer: in the browser cache; in the 'downloads' folder if they've downloaded lists or other data; and in folders that have been copied forward for years whenever the person gets a new machine, just to name a few examples.
Running an Identity Finder scan is a relatively painless way to find out if your computer contains sensitive data. You have likely already heard from your LSP about running a scan, but if you haven't, you can feel free to contact him or her directly to inquire about it. Identity Finder is available for free to all SAS faculty and staff. If you think you don't have any PII on your computer, scanning it with Identity Finder is a good way to make sure.


That was no Mance heliograph - how Lt. Haynes signalled to Ekowe by "heliographer"
The most popular depiction of the sun-mirror signaling to the besieged British troops in Ekowe in March 1879 shows signalling performed by a Mance heliograph - a round tripod-mounted mirror with a diameter of roughly 5 inches, with a crosshairs aimer on a short arm from the head of a tripod.
a flag in a frame used as a shutter for creating the flashes beyond that.
Lieut Haynes described his device in detail in a Nov. 1879 letter to an Australian correspondent. This letter was not published until Nov. 1899, and is reproduced with his correspondents' cover letter below ( http://goo.gl/hWLwXS ).
Note that Haynes refers to his instrument as a "heliostat", not a "heliograph". British signal manuals described two types of sun-mirror telegraphs: heliographs (like Mance's) where the flashes were produced by rocking the mirror, and heliostats (like Hayne's) where the flashes were produced by interrupting the sunbeam.
This engraving saw wide republication, and and used for postcards to this day. Little wonder Haynes complained that: "the report that was current in the English newspapers was entirely unauthorised and erroneous".
This initial error is somewhat understandable - most of the accounts I've seen that correctly mention that Haynes employed a bedroom mirror and crude construction were published after April 26. However, many such accounts had appeared by Sept. 1879, when the Illustrated London News persisted in stating that the Mance heliograph was employed "by Lord Chelmsford to flash messages to Colonel Pearson when shut up in Ekowe".
"Thereupon it occurred to Lieutenant Charles Haynes, of the Royal Engineers, that by means of the heliograph the rays of the sun might be made to do duty. On suggesting this to Lord Chelmsford the general was far from sanguine, while his staff were more than incredulous. Nevertheless permission to try was given. The difficulties were formidable. In the first place no mirrors were obtainable, and a small bedroom looking-glass had to do duty. There were no mechanical workers at hand, and all the apparatus was of the roughest. " [4-6].
Bosun Henry William Eason, diary 16 March 1879: "We used a bedroom looking-glass"
" But the most successful means of communication has been by flashing the sun upon Ekowe with a looking-glass. This has been so far perfected within the last few days, that now we hold conversation with Ekowe all day when the sun shines. We signal from a hilltop in about two miles in advance of this.
From the hilltop Ekowe can be distinguished with a telescope, sixteen miles distant, in a straight line.
It is done in this way. A frame with two wires crossing in the centre is set up, and behind it a looking-glass fixed upon a stand by a screw, as well as vertically upon its own hinges. Then a little hole is scraped in the mercury, at the centre of the looking-glass, and the stand is arranged so that on looking through the hole in the mercury, the cross-wires and Ekowe are in one line. Then the glass is moved, so that the sun is reflected on the cross-wires, and we are sure then that it is reflected on Ekowe. One man keeps altering the glass as the sun moves, so as to keep it reflected on the cross-wires; and another, by passing a screen across in front, makes long and short flashes, by which letters of the alphabet are made, as in the telegraph code."
It is a nice image, though.
C.E. Haynes, Lieut. R. E.
Note.—The description is I am afraid rather crude, but all my notes etc. are with my heavy baggage a few hundred miles away and so I have to trust entirely to my memory.

I have seen it before, but never noticed the signalling set-up at back.
That article includes a rendering of the watercolor, and points out that Hayne's apparatus is visible.
Mulllineaux's article also reproduces the wonderfully detailed sketch of the setup that Haynes included in the St. Andrews Signalling Station Message book, together with a log of the messages sent to and received from Ekowe, which is held at the museum of the Royal Engineers. That's a document I'd like to see digitized and made available!

While wonderfully thorough, Mulllineaux's article does not mention the fairly detailed descriptions I found in  and . It occurs to me that I should cite this article in mine, for completeness - I'll do so if editing is still open to me.
