US vows to veto UN resolution for protection of Palestinians
The US will "unquestionably veto" a UN draft resolution which calls for "the consideration of measures to guarantee the safety and protection" of Palestinian civilians.
US Ambassador Nikki Haley called the Kuwait-sponsored resolution "grossly one-sided" and "morally bankrupt".

The draft resolution "deplores" and calls for a halt to "the use of any excessive, disproportionate and indiscriminate force" by the Israeli military. It also "deplores the firing of rockets from the Gaza Strip at Israeli civilian areas".
It asks UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres for a report on a potential "international protection mechanism".
A vote on the draft resolution is expected to take place on Friday.
For more than two months, Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have been protesting along the fence with Israel, demanding their right to return to the homes and land their families were expelled from 70 years ago.

The dispute appears to mark the worst diplomatic crisis between the two regional powers since Israeli marines stormed an aid ship to enforce a naval blockade of Gaza in 2010, killing 10 Turkish activists and prompting a downgrade in diplomatic ties that lasted until 2016.
Hamas leader vows to keep demanding right of return
Marking the 70th anniversary of Nakba, or the catastrophe, Hamas' leader Ismail Haniyeh visited protesters east of Gaza City, vowing to continue weeks of protests along Israel's border.
"Our message today is the Return March and siege-breaking is going on and that the massacre, the Israeli occupation committed against our revolting and returning youths will only increase our steadfastness, determination and sticking to the right of return," said Haniyeh.
"We are coming to tell the whole world: no to the deal of the century and no to the moving of the embassy to Jerusalem and Jerusalem is our eternal capital, the capital of Palestinian state and Jerusalem's identity will not be changed by a resolution from Trump nor Netanyahu."

Palestinian right of return 'means Israel's destruction'
Danny Danon, Israel's ambassador to the UN, has described the longstanding Palestinian demand for the right of return of refugees who fled their homes during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war as a call to destroy Israel.
"Let me be very clear," Danon told an emergency session of the UN Security Council. "When the Palestinians say right of return, they mean destruction of Israel."
He also accused Hamas of using a strategy of "orchestrated riots" and "planned casualties" to seek international sympathy.
Hamas activists were using civilians as human shields in the ongoing protests along Gaza's border with Israel, in an attempt to breach the fence and stage attacks on Israel, he added.

"Is it possible that you did not hear our calls? Is it possible that you did not take our warnings seriously?"
Calling for a transparent and investigation into the killings along the Israel-Gaza border, he said: "Let us investigate what is happening on the ground. We will accept the outcome of such an investigation."

Speaking to reporters at a White House briefing, Shah also declined to join with other countries - including France and Britain - in calling for Israel to exercise restraint in its response to the demonstrations.
The White House instead reiterated the Trump administration's refrain that Israel had a right to defend itself.
"The responsibility for these tragic deaths rests squarely with Hamas," Shah said. "Hamas is intentionally and cynically provoking this response."

"As we speak, about 52 Palestinians have been killed, a number which is likely to increase. This is an indication of the level of Israeli brutality."
"Today Israel is celebrating the opening of the US embassy. They allege that the occupied land of Jerusalem is the land of their forefathers. That is a falsification of history.
"Palestinians have been living continuously on this land. Our people will not give up their peaceful demonstrations until we reach victory with Jerusalem as our capital.
"By this move [of the embassy] the US has excluded itself from the peace process in the Middle East. It can no longer act as mediator and its role will no longer be valid."

Foreign Office minister Alistair Burt also expressed concern that peaceful protests were being exploited by extremist elements, while adding: "(I) urge restraint in use of live fire."
The prime minister's spokesman said: "We are concerned by the reports of violence and loss of life in Gaza. We urge calm and restraint to avoid actions destructive to peace efforts.
"The prime minister had made her views clear in December that we disagreed with the decision (to move the US embassy). We believe it's unhelpful in terms of prospects for peace in the region."
The spokesman also reiterated Britain's commitment to a two-state solution between the Israelis and Palestinians with Jerusalem as the shared capital.

"Those wounded are lying on the floor - there are no more beds to accomodate them. The hospitals are overflowing," Humaid added.

Egypt meanwhile "expressed its strong condemnation for the targeting of unarmed Palestinian civilians by the Israeli occupation forces", according to a foreign ministry statement.

Palestinians in Gaza prepare to cross fence with Israel
Organisers of the Great March of Return say they are expecting as many as one million people to join the demonstration and attempt to cross the fence with Israel from various points across the border.
A leaflet circulated by the organisers reads: "The national committee for the Great March of Return invites you to participate in the peaceful popular protest, One Million of Return and Breaking the Siege".
A spokesperson for the Great March of Return, Ahmad Abu Artema, said that the goal of trying to cross the fence is to "send a message the Palestinian people have not and will not adapt to 70 years of being refugees, estrangement and difficult conditions."
"We are adamant to return, no matter what happens. This is what the people of Gaza want - it's about popular will. And this is their right."
The Right of Return is enshrined in United Nations Resolution 194.
Israeli officials have accused Hamas of being behind the protests, saying the movement exploits Palestinians and deliberately exposes them to danger near the border fence.
The organisers behind the Great March of Return have rejected these claims.
Early on Monday, the Israeli military, which has imposed a land, sea and air blockade on the Gaza Strip for more than a decade, dropped leaflets warning Palestinians to stay away from the border.

"People are very enthusiastic to come and take part in the protests because they know without participating in this non-violent form of resistance they can't achieve their objective," Abu Shariek said.
When asked whether the protests would lead to any tangible concessions by the Israelis, Abu Shariek said: "We are implanting an idea in the minds of people across the world that Palestinians have rights and they hope for the right of return.
"We want the world to impose a military embargo on Israel and the BDS [Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions] strategy. South Africa used this method and they emerged victorious and I think we will be no exception."
Death toll reaches 37 Palestinians killed
- Ahmed Rashad, 24, was pronounced dead by the Palestinian Ministry of Health after being hit by a live bullet fired by Israeli forces. This brings the death toll to 37 Palestinians since protests began on March 30.
- Ahmed Abu Akil, 25, died in the hospital after being shot with a live bullet, according to the Palestinian health ministry.
Palestinians fly kites over fence into Israel
Palestinian protesters along the Gaza border have sent kites over the fence into Israel, including some carrying notes telling Israelis: "There is no place for you in Palestine."
40 Palestinian protesters wounded
- At least 40 Palestinians have been wounded by Israeli use of live fire and tear gas during protests along the Gaza-Israeli border, reported the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
- Among the wounded is Ahmed Abu Akil from Jabaliya. He has been moved to the intensive care unit after being injured in the head by live bullets fired by the Israeli forces, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
- Another two Palestinians have also been reported injured in the Gaza Strip after Israeli forces fired live bullets at protesters.
Israel drops leaflets in Gaza: 'Stay away from border fence'
- Israel dropped leaflets in the Gaza Strip warning Palestinians not to approach its border fence as the military braced for fresh Palestinian protests along the eastern borders of the Gaza Strip.
- It was the first time leaflets have been dropped in the recent round of demonstrations.
- "The IDF [Israel Defense Forces] is prepared for all scenarios. Stay away from the fence and do not attempt to harm it," said the leaflets, which were scattered by Israeli aircraft in the early morning in areas along the border.

Friday, April 6th
For a second week, thousands of Palestinians protested along the eastern borders of the Gaza Strip, as part of the Great March of Return movement.
Israeli forces have killed 29 Palestinians during the past week, including 21 during and after the March 30 protests, which wounded more than 1,600 others.
Eight Palestinians died last Friday, including one who succumbed to his wounds after being shot last week.
Two more died from their wounds the following day, including journalist Yaser Murtaja.
Local media: Eight killed by Israeli forces
- The Palestinian Shehab News Agency is reporting that the death toll in Friday's protests has risen to nine, after Alaa Yahya al-Zamali, 17, was shot dead by Israeli forces in Rafah.
Local media: Six killed by Israeli forces
- The Palestinian Safa Press Agency is reporting that the death toll has risen to eight, with Sidqi Abu Outewi, a 45-year-old from Nuseirat, and Mohammed Hajj Saleh, a 33-year-old from Rafah, joining the growing list of fatalities.
Fifth Palestinian killed, health ministry says
- The Palestinian Ministry of Health says the death toll has risen to six, with 20-year-old Ibrahim Al-Ourr killed.

- "Yaser was filming with his camera next to me when we heard the sound of gunfire," Salem said. "He just fell on the ground and said, 'I've been shot, I've been shot'."
- "He needed eight units of blood," Salem continued. "The hospital moved him from the operations room to the ICU where his situation remains critical."
- Another journalist, Ibrahim Zanoun, was shot in the arm while covering the protests in Jabaliya, northern Gaza.
Half an hour ago the occupation army shot my brother, journalist, Ibrahim Zanoun in the arm!— Ezz zanoon (@EzzZanoon) April 6, 2018
Health officials: Two killed, 250 injured
- The Palestinian Ministry of Health says protester Majdi Ramadan Shbat has been killed east of Gaza City by Israeli forces.
- The number of those wounded has risen to at least 250, according to the ministry.
- Shbat's death brings the total number of protesters killed on Friday to three, after Thaer Rab'a, who was shot by Israeli forces during the March 30 demonstrations, succumbed to his wounds earlier in the day.
Palestinian killed in Gaza
- The Palestinian Ministry of Health has confirmed that 38-year-old Osama Qdeih has been killed by Israeli live fire east of Khan Younis.
- The number of wounded has increased to at least 150, the ministry added.
Ministry of Health: 40 wounded by live fire and tear gas
- Palestinian health officials say at least 40 protesters have been wounded.
- According to Ashraf al-Qidra, the health ministry's spokesperson, five are in critical condition after being shot in the head or in the upper body.
- Mahjoob Zweiri, a professor at Qatar University, said that the protests are the outcome of "years and years of frustration" by the residents of the Gaza Strip.
- "If you look at the past 60 years there has always been delayed action from the Arab League and the international community [with regards to] the Palestinian question," he said.
- "That delay of action is an indication that there is no serious attempt to stop Israel from doing what it is doing now."
UN warns Israeli forces to respect 'right of peaceful assembly'
- UN High Commissioner for Human Rights spokeswoman Liz Throssell has expressed concern over further violence during Friday's demonstrations and in the weeks ahead.
- Speaking at a press conference in Geneva, Throssell said: "We remind Israel of its obligations to ensure that excessive force is not employed against protesters and that in the context of a military occupation, as is the case in Gaza, the unjustified and unlawful recourse to firearms by law enforcement resulting in death may amount to a willful killing, a grave breach of the Fourth Geneva Convention."
- Earlier, Gaza's Ministry of Health confirmed the death of Thaer Rab'a, 30, who succumbed to his injuries after he was shot by Israeli forces last Friday.
- This brings this week's death toll to 22 Palestinians.
Friday of 'Burning Tyres'
- Palestinians have gathered hundreds of spare tyres and plan on setting them on fire in order to create a smokescreen to obstruct the vision of Israeli snipers.
- The situation is calm at the moment, despite five Palestinians so far being wounded by live ammunition
- "[At the five encampments along the border] you have entire families with their children dressed in traditional Palestinian clothes," she said. "They are having picnics, they are sitting on the floor, and there's a lot of vendors on the side.
- "It is a completely different atmosphere and that's where the vast majority of people are."
Hamas internal security called for peaceful protest
- On Thursday night, the internal security of Hamas released a statement calling on all protesters to "avoid friction with the Israeli occupation forces, and cooperate with the instructions of the organizers of the events."
- The statement also called on participants to avoid wearing distinctive clothes and to not take photos or use their mobile phones.
Organisers of the march
- "The march is organised by refugees, doctors, lawyers, university students, Palestinian intellectuals, academics, civil society organizations and Palestinian families," Asad Abu Sharekh, the spokesperson of the march, said.
- "Using these claims of Hamas being behind the protests, Israel is trying to sabotage the idea of the march to justify its escalation against protesters."
Protests begin
- The planned protests, which started on March 30, or Land Day, will continue until the Nakba anniversary on May 15, which marks 70 years since 750,000 Palestinians were expelled from their villages and towns by Zionist militias in 1948.
- Makeshift tents have been erected 700 metres away from the Israeli fence, symbolising the right of return for Palestinian refugees, who make up 70 percent of the Gaza Strip's population of two million.

Physicians at St. Louis Children's Hospital believe strongly in partnering with referring physicians to ensure the best possible outcomes in patient care. All medical treatment plans are sent to the referring physician and consultations are on-going after hospitalization and treatment, if necessary.
The medical team fosters a partnership with parents and schools to ensure positive strides are made in both home and classroom environments. During hospitalization, individual bedside tutoring is available. The hospital's school liaison and Child Life Specialists work directly with teachers and school administrators to help children keep up with class work and educational skills.
Rehabilitation, including speech, occupational and physical therapy, is offered as part of the program's after-care services. As some children may be impacted with developmental or quality of life impairments as a result of treatment for brain or spinal cord tumors, St. Louis Children's Hospital also operates the Late Effects Clinic in partnership with Washington University School of Medicine. This program provides comprehensive care for patients who may experience medical, emotional and quality of life difficulties as a result of any cancer therapies. Services include regular medical evaluations, psycho-social assessments and evaluations by a psychologist experienced in the stresses of cancer survivorship and pastoral care support.

Helping others is a wonderful way to brighten lives, celebrate season
Recently I stopped at the Everhard McDonald's drive-through, which is crazy busy at 8:30 on a Friday morning. At the payment window, the lady said that the customer in the car ahead of me had paid for my meal.
She said that the customer in front of him or her had paid for the next customer's meal, and on up the chain.
I thought that was just great and paid for the customer behind me. I wonder if the kindness continued.
A couple of bucks can make someone's day brighter. A mother and her little girl were behind me in line at Wal-Mart. That little girl was quiet as a mouse and kept looking at the candy along the wall. I got $1 in change and turned around and gave it to the little girl. You'd think I gave her a TV!
A friend and I had breakfast at IHOP and shared the cost of the meal of the couple at the next table. My friend regularly picks up and delivers items from Wal-Mart, along with doughnuts, to the Humane Society.
I know it's rough out there, but it doesn't take much to put a smile on someone's face. And it makes you feel really good.
Do something for our two-legged and four-legged friends, for our seniors in assisted living facilities and nursing homes. Hand a $1 scratch-off Lottery ticket to the cashier who just served you. Take doughnuts to the people where you get your gas or to your mail carrier. Put a box of doggie or cat treats under the giving trees at the mall.
Have a super-duper holiday season, and smile — it's catching.

How many of you are familiar with a certain animal named a sloth? Well, if you seen the movie "Ice Age", then you remember Sid who happened to be a giant sloth which was also a prehistoric animal like his two buddies Manny, who happened to be a Wooly Mammoth, and Diego, the untrustworthy saber tooth tiger. This first tutorial of the day is going to show you "how to draw a sloth, step by step". Sloths are probably one of the more weirdest looking animals in existence, at least to me they are. There are two different species of sloth, the two-toed and three toed. Both of these species however can be found in the same places, Central and South American rainforests. Like the turtle, sloths are incredibly slow creatures that move like one mile an hour it seems. Unlike their cousins the giant sloth, these mammals are only the size of a small dog like a maltise or a Boston terrier. To describe this odd looking animal is very simple. They have heads that are just plain out flat, and they have long rope like arms that enable them to live in their tree or trees. Sloths also hang upside down quite a bit and they even sometimes give birth while hanging in this position. The hair on a sloth should look like a greyish brown or even sometimes a greyish green color. When they have a green tone to their hair, this means that algae has grown on them which aids as a camouflaging disguise. Did you know that sloths will sometimes live in the same tree for years? It true, these rainforest animals have been known to keep living in the same tree, sitting or hanging in the same spot for as much five years. Now being a tree dwelling creature, naturally their diet is mainly vegetative. They feed on fruit, leaves, bugs, and sticks. They are also a nocturnal species, which means they sleep in the day, and travel around at night. When they sleep they will curl up with it's head between the arms, and the feet close together. Sloths sleep in this odd position to look like they are a part of the tree which also hides their true identity and keeps jaguars ways. A recognizable characteristic about this animal is it's long sharp toes which also happens to be their nails. I think you will have fun learning "how to draw a sloth, step by step". They are incredibly interesting animals which is why I chose to draw one. I will be back in a bit to upload some other fun drawings. Peace out for now, and have a happy day!
