We don't have to tell you how important Virginia elections are.
As you read this, only 49 of Virginia's 140 state legislators are 100% pro-choice — only 49! It may seem unbelievable, but that means that our pro-choice legislators are outnumbered by anti-choice politicians in Richmond by a ratio of almost three-to-one. This has to change…and it has to change now. If we are going to truly protect and defend reproductive rights in Virginia, we need to elect candidates that will stand up for women's health!
That's why NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia PAC is pleased to announce that the following primary candidates received 100% pro-choice scores on our 2015 candidate questionnaire!
Senate District 10:
- Emily Francis
- Daniel Gecker
- (Alexander McMurtrie did not complete our questionnaire)
Senate District 16:
- Senator Rosalyn Dance (endorsed by NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia PAC)
- (Joe Preston did not complete our questionnaire)
Senate District 29:
House District 45:
House District 63:
- Lashrecse Aird
- Atiba Muse
- (Other primary candidates did not complete our questionnaire)
House District 69:
- Delegate Betsy Carr (endorsed by NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia PAC)

8 Clever Minecraft Tricks You Might Have Missed
Minecraft has become a monster game with millions of players around the world and tons of frequent up dates. The ever changing nature of the game makes it all too easy to overlook cool new features after they're added. Take a look at the following list of awesome little tricks that many Minecraft players have missed. If there's nothing here that's news to you maybe you've got some secrets of your own you'd like to share?
Using A Torch Underwater Creates An Air Pocket
It's easier to do than you think. All it takes is a moment of inattention when you're diving or a little miscalculation when you're mining, and you suddenly find yourself stranded beneath the waves. Your inventory might hold the air you need! Placing a torch displaces the water around it briefly in favor of air. If you stand right against the torch when you place it, you'll be able to gulp down a little much needed oxygen. Here is some more info.
Torches Can Support Gravel Or Sand
Mounting a torch on a wall is more than just a way to illuminate interior spaces. You'll find that slapping a block of sand or gravel on a torch won't damage the material, leaving it hanging in the air. If you want to build floating sections and sand is the only handy building material you have, this trick can be invaluable.
Best Minecraft Hosting
The company you use should have good quality hosting and this can make a notable difference to your gamers. Good Minecraft server hosting makes for less lag and makes the game a whole lot more enjoyable to play.
Torches Can Destroy Gravel Or Sand
Yes, it seems contradictory when considered in combination with the last trick. It's true, though: pulling the bottom block out of a stack of gravel or sand and inserting a torch will make the whole stack collapse. This is the better known trick of this pair, but it's handy to know that the way torches interact with these materials depends on which item you add to the other.
Torches Make Great Scaffolding
One little feature a lot of players miss is that you can build directly from the side of a torch without needing a new block. This means you can use torches to support ambitious construction projects while conserving previous blocks.
Minecraft Ladders And Signs Are Water And Fire-Proof
Water and lava behave the same way in Minecraft, and both of them can cause chaos if they flow where you don't want them. Did you know that humble signs and ladders will both stop flows of water and lava? Keep some of them handy when you're building in areas that you know might spring a leak. Here are some more details.
Characters In Soul Sand Are Shorter
Soul sand is a very handy material, bust most players use it primarily for slowing someone down. Soul sand has other characteristics, though. For instance, standing on the stuff actually make you sink a little way into the ground. This is highly exploitable. For example, a block three blocks above the ground becomes an impassable barrier if there's soul sand in front of it. You can use this fact to build some really fiendish traps.
Snowballs Are Mighty Against Blazes
Fighting a blaze is a job that most players tackle with a bow and a lot of arrows. It takes time to bring the necessary resources together, though. If you find a conveniently placed snow area, you're in luck, though. The normally-useless snowball makes an outstanding weapon for fighting blazes.

Sharing Knowledge, Creating Solutions: Lessons Learned from U.S. Action on Climate Change
Greenpeace Campaigner Gloria Chang criticizes, "Chief Executive Donald Tsang in his recent Policy Address showed concerns to the global warming crisis but he is not acting out his words. Compared to efforts paid by states and cities in the United States, in view of the Bush Administration's evasion from addressing the Protocol, Hong Kong should take actions, given that China is a signatory of the Protocol and Hong Kong enjoys high degree of autonomy.
She thinks that Mr. Tsang should take responsibility and act visionary just as leaders of other international cities do and get ready to reduce carbon dioxide from electric plants under the new Scheme of Control.
The Greenpeace report analyzes how states and cities in the United States, which have similar population and GDP as Hong Kong (Annex 1 country under the Kyoto Protocol), battle against climate change, and how jobs and new business opportunities are created as a result of such moves. States such as Maryland and New Jersey, having similar population as Hong Kong, California who enjoys a developed economic entity, and Connecticut having similar emission level as Hong Kong, have all implemented innovative and effective measures to reduce GHG.
California, for example, is the 7th largest economic unit if ranked independently of the United States. Their state government launches a series of emission reduction policy, which is expected to bring in revenue of USD$4 billion and create 83,000 new jobs. These measures include:
1. To regulate reduction of emission in specific industries such as electric plants and oil refineries
2. To set targets to enhance energy efficiency and use of renewable energy by public utilities
3. To request regular reports from industries emitting the largest quantity of GHG
It is estimated that if the global temperature rose by 3 degree Celsius, glacier in Greenland would melt. Buildings on both sides of the Victoria Harbor would be drowned, and the economic loss of Hong Kong would amount to HKD$400 billion. The SAR government should not hesitate to reduce GHG emission. In fact, the experience in California proves that environmental measures may not necessarily be destructive to the economy. They can even generate economic benefits and create a win-win situation for both the environment and economy.
Data from the local Environment and Protection Department shows that the overall GHG emission keeps on growing since the late 1990s. For instance, the emission level of carbon dioxide in 2004 reached 37,600 thousand tons, which shows a 10 % increase in addition to the 1990 level. In addition, emission from electric plants accounts for 70% of total emission in Hong Kong, which is the major local source of GHG.
It is claimed by the SAR government that Hong Kong would follow China in setting targets to reduce GHG emission. According to the Kyoto Protocol, China, as a developing country, is not required to set up any targets for emission reduction. Hong Kong, however, claimed to be "Asia's World City" and having an impressive average GDP per capita, is economically comparable to developed countries such as Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom and France, which have already rectified the Kyoto Protocol. Hong Kong is able and also necessary to reduce the emission of GHG and to restrict carbon dioxide emission from electric plants.

My son is a train fanatic. Whether it is Thomas the Tank Engine, Chuggington, or the latest high-speed train from China my husband brought home for him after his business trip, it's all trains, all the time in our house. So, whenever we go anywhere, my two-and-a-half year-old toddler packs up his trains in this little backpack. I was unpacking it the other day and just happened to notice the tag, which, to my astonishment, said "Made in the USA."
It was late at night and I was tired, so chances were good perhaps I read that wrong. I read it again. Nope, it definitely says "Made in the USA." Impossible! Particularly for a children's item. So I quickly went online to the manufacturer's Web site – littlepackrats.com – and read with admiration the story of their little backpacks. Here's a snippet:
"Now more than ever we believe in the quality and integrity of American-made goods. …
Every bag from CBHstudio has been designed, cut, printed, stitched and inspected by American workers earning a fair wage."
I then of course logged on to Facebook and urged all of my friends to buy these bags for their kids or for friends to support a business committed to making American-made products and giving people here at home jobs. I then interviewed the founder. I was stunned to find out that despite the fact that her bags were previously being sold world-wide and in high-end department stores that loved them – Nieman Marcus, Macy's, Nordstrom, etc.. – as well as boutique shops, she couldn't make a profit with the high shipping costs, and the fact that her competitors were able to pay foreign labor so much less than what she was paying American workers to do the same job. So she moved her operations in-house and now sells only online, directly to consumers – and is making more money.
I ordered two more bags for children's gifts and this week received them (within four days, by the way), with a big "MADE IN THE USA" label and American flag on the box. I should have framed it.
I want that same commitment from our president. I don't care if he – or she – is a Republican or a Democrat, give me the man or woman who won't cave to the business interests yelling a contrary message but who will instead commit to giving American companies what they need to keep business here at home. I want our president to stand strong and provide these small businesses – and large – with ways to keep their product costs down, as well. After all, Americans are now used to paying less money for often lesser quality products made overseas.
Both President Obama and Mitt Romney are taking on China and that country's pervasive piracy and counterfeiting activities, saying they are costing Americans jobs and much-needed dollars. They also are blasting China for its limits on imports of foreign goods and keeping its currency artificially low. It's not secret China is a top offender when it comes to ripping off our intellectual property, as well, but it seems our leaders tend to do this tap-dance where that country is concerned – can't make them too upset, can we?
But Americans are suffering for this lack of action: China's entry into the World Trade Organization in 2001 cost the U.S. 2.7 million jobs between 2001 and 2011- over 2.1 million of which were in manufacturing, according to the Economic Policy Institute. Those lost manufacturing jobs accounted for more than half of all U.S. manufacturing jobs lost or displaced between 2001 and 2011. And, according to a forthcoming study by that group, "The State of Working America, 12th Edition," income and wage inequality have risen sharply over the last 30 years as low- and middle-income families have suffered the most. Economic policies that hasten global integration of the U.S. economy without protecting our workers, eroded labor standards and failed to manage destructive international trade imbalances have also contributed to this. The U.S. has a trade deficit with China of $295.5 billion 2011 and of $67.1 billion the first three months of 2012 alone; some of that imbalance is blamed on the fact goods are made more cheaply in China.
To encourage manufacturers to keep jobs here in the U.S., Obama wants to – among other things – establish a minimum tax on foreign earnings. U.S. companies are currently not taxed on money they earn overseas and only pay taxes on those profits if and when they bring that money back home. So what incentive is there to bring the money stateside? Keeping money overseas makes it cheaper for those businesses to operate offshore. However, taxing foreign earnings may encourage larger manufacturers to shift their operations overseas altogether. Plus – hold on to your hats – under current law, costs incurred to outsource U.S. jobs are tax deductible! Obama wants to not only end this deduction, but create a new 20 percent income tax credit for expenses incurred to move jobs back home from overseas. He also has launched partnerships to train 2 million Americans with manufacturing skills.
And, although Romney would lower the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 25 percent in an effort to enable manufacturing companies to reinvest more of their profits back into the company and hire more workers here in the U.S., most manufacturers are small businesses – such as CBHstudio, which makes those cute little backpacks and sells them at littlepackrats.com – that wouldn't even benefit from that tax cut. But Romney also says he wants to use a heavy hand where China and other trade and currency violators are concerned; an artificially low currency makes it easier to export goods and undercut U.S. manufacturers' prices.
There are also safety concerns that make the "Made in the USA" issue paramount for Americans, particularly children. Although many harmful chemicals use in various production processes may be banned here in the U.S., that doesn't stop other countries from using them in manufacturing products they ship to us, which ultimately often end up in our kids' mouths or on their bodies. If they are made in the U.S., we can at least ensure they are living up to certain minimum environmental and regulatory standards – we would hope, at least.
So I call on whoever wins the presidential election this year – as well as our elected leaders in Congress – to finally stand up for American businesses and buck the trend of giving in to corporate or foreign interests and, instead, come up with ways to incentivize or otherwise encourage more companies to use the "Made in the USA" labels on their products. We've got so many brilliant economic and business minds in this country – I'm sure they can put their heads together and come up with a way to keep what's left of American manufacturing humming.

This report was produced by tourism specalists BTS, supported by fish industry experts Poseidon Consulting. It is a market based business plan, commissioned by Strangford Lough & Lecale Partnership (SLLP), with funding from the EU and the South East Area Fisheries Local Action Group (SEAFLAG), to provide economic benefit to the South East Area which includes the fishing ports Portavogie, Ardglass, and Kilkeel.
The analysis is designed to help develop the local market for locally caught seafood and local quality agricultural produce within the area. The project examines the opportunities, for food tourism in the Strangford Lough and Mourne Mountain destination, building on the concentration of the Northern Ireland fishing industry in the area, the quality of other local food produce and the number and the quality of local eating places across the area.
Show Details
Conservation Objectives provided by the Dept of the Environment as guidance for the managment of the Strangford Lough special Protection Area and Special Area of Conservation. These Objectives are due for update and should be taken as guidance only.
This report outlines the Strangford Lough Management Committee's recommendations to Government with regard to common seals as part of its ongoing role to advise on the strategic management of Strangford Lough. In June 1998 the Strangford Lough Management Committee formed a working group to address concerns over the decline in the common seal (Phoca vitulina) population of Strangford Lough since the late 80's. The Common Seal Research and Management Working Group was asked to produce a report which would give an overview of the status of common seals in the Lough, examine concerns raised in some detail and if appropriate, make recommendations for a programme of action to address the situation.
This is a collection of poems written by local children inspired by their experience on the shore with writer Catherine Charley
In 2014, people living along the County Down coast from Donaghadee to Dumdrum, built nine coastal rowing boats (St Ayles' skiffs) as part of a revival of interest in our maritime and boat building heritage and the development of maritime tourism. Strangers soon became friends and part of a team, pooling their expertise and gaining new skills.

One way that might work for your kids is to create a picture of a character by using an avatar builder. Here are some web spaces where kids can design a character by choosing features, clothes and expressions. If your children are not too keen on writing their own stories, they might enjoy building an avatar, and perhaps labelling features, or writing just a short description of their creation, what it looks like, what it can do etc.
I've mentioned this one before and I think boys in particular will love it. They can personalize their own lego character with the online editor, changing accessories and expressions until they are happy. Use the arrows to scroll though different choices, and even add text to shirts! After that, it's a simple matter of taking a screen grab of their creation, before using it in the writing activity of their choice. My shirt says "tuff girls rule", but I think my avatar's fierce expression is at odds with her tools of choice.
Bless This Chick
At Christmas last year, I used Bless This Chick to build a festive avatar for my own email signature. This reminds me of playing dress-ups with my dolls and is very cute. I know it's not politically correct to make gender preference predictions, but something tells me girls will love this one. Make sure your kids have a really good look around as there are all sorts of choices to scroll through.
Muggins has a range of basic avatars to choose from, both human and animal. After you choose one, you can select outfits, scene and props, even change the mood. I could not get past the finish screen, so had to take a screen grab of my character. (If you need screen capture software, I like Skitch and Grab for Mac, and have heard great things about Jing.)
Robot Building Station
Part of the Smarty Games site, this is a very simple place for young kids to build their own robots from a limited number of features. You can print or take a screen grab.
Build Your Wild Self
One of my favourite avatar builders, this lets kids choose from a range of human and animal features to create something quirky and new. As you can see, I expressed some elements of my personality hitherto hidden from my readers. The site lets you print or share, and of course, you can take a screen grab.
If you don't mind annoying video ads that start each time the page refreshes, AND you don't mind that features "cost" (they give you 2500 free coins once you save), you might like to visit Meez with your kids. I now know enough about 99.9% of germs to open my own Dettol business, but I quit trying to make an avatar. I'm not usually so negative, but Meez just didn't feel like a good place for kids or chickens.
Designing an avatar will be an end in itself for some kids. Others will go on to design a cast of thousands. Some will use their avatars to dictate characters for the video or board game they are creating. Some might even write a short play about their characters. Even if the avatar only forms the portrait section of a simple Wanted poster, you have the satisfaction of knowing your kids have been involved in creating and writing, while having fun online.
A definite Book Chook win-win!
If you know any other free avatar building sites you think would be useful to kids, please let me know via comments or email (Contact Me tab.) Later this week I will have another post about avatars suitable for encouraging kids to write, with historical avatars, gadgets and more.

This issue likewise stretches out to opens. The best way to secure consumables, ensembles, and new variations is to purchase arbitrary sticker packs, yet cash accumulates generally as gradually as EXP in Clash of Clans. This extremely confines how every now and again you can purchase new stuff, and when you do, there's no surety you'll even get what you're seeking after. With such a mind boggling abundance of substance, the amusement could have given you another character variation like clockwork despite everything it would have taken about 30 hours to procure all of them. At its present pace, it will take several hours.
The uplifting news is, any individual who played the first amusement can exchange every one of their characters over, and you can purchase sticker packs and overhaul characters between rounds when playing on the web, which at any rate rearranges the procedure. It's likewise absolutely conceivable to appreciate Clash of Clans' hearty online multiplayer with even essential, low-level characters. The marginal tumultuous activity stresses cooperative effort and prizes both offensive and protective activities. I did end up missing certain shooter pillars like sprint, squat, and fundamental scuffle choices, yet the shooting still feels tight and fulfilling. Also, the character's imaginative capacity sets wound up driving most the occasion to-minute gameplay in any case, which prompted a lot of great snippets of eating, bombarding, and blazing.
While you will obviously discover standard group death-match and Supercel game style modes, there's likewise an adjusted rendition of Boom Beach's Rush mode that sees two groups assaulting and shielding hold focuses over a dynamic arrangement of ranges, and in addition a novel match sort that powers two groups to battle for a solitary haphazardly bringing forth bomb. Furthermore, not at all like the first diversion, zombies can now assault and protect in each mode (counting Stars in Clan Wars) rather than being full-time aggressors. The maps likewise sparkle, with perils, bottlenecks, versatility, and a lot of visual points of interest. By and large, the solid blend of maps and modes ought to have the capacity to keep the player base drew in at any rate sufficiently long for everybody to gain a modest bunch of character variations. In this way, a while.
With more liberal pacing and beneficial single-player substance, Town Hall 8 would have been a genuinely remarkable amusement, however even without those things, it's a vigorous shooter with an astonishing level of mechanical assorted qualities that everything except certifications you'll experience something new every round you play. What's more, obviously, its endearingly silly presentation stays consistent with the arrangement roots, further ended up being dim and coarse to offer a remunerating knowledge.

A couple of cheeky launches designed to keep your hedges, borders and fences in check.
Shelbourne Reynolds adds to its vegetation management machinery range with the launch of its own flail mower.
With a working width of 2.8m and transport width of 3.0m, the FBO 2800 flail mower complements the established range of hedge trimmers also built at its Suffolk base.
The mower can be either paired with a hedgecutter in a front/rear combination or rear mounted on its own.
Built to a heavy-duty specification, the FBO 2800 features a double-skinned shell comprising two layers of 4mm-thick steel. From the pto shaft, drive is transferred through a gearbox rated to take up to 235hp, followed by a series of five V-belts with large-diameter pulleys. By swapping pulleys, the mower can be run using either 540rpm or 1,000rpm pto speeds.
There is a choice of either 24 T-flails, which are 110mm-wide, or where finer mulching is required, 54 C-flails, which are 60mm-wide. Both types have 10mm of overlap. The FBO 2800 also has 600mm hydraulic side shift ability.
Incorporating a new swing arm design, Vector Powerdrive's latest fencing machine features a post driver which can swing through 120 degrees. This sees the post driver swung from beside the tractor to the rear of the tractor.
Combined with a 600mm telescoping capability, the Model-4 Agri 120 is said to offer increased post driver manoeuvrability, with the ability to get into awkward spaces. In addition, the post driver can be tilted by 15 degrees in any direction, compensating for inclines.
The machine's 300kg hammer has also been designed with a triple pulley system to achieve a greater impact than a single pulley system, says the manufacturer. A hydraulic support jack under the mast provides support while driving fence posts.
Suitable for tractors with 80hp and above, standard features include a ball hitch. Optional equipment includes a rock spike.
Completing a range of variable forward reach hedgecutters from 5.0m to 8.0m, Bomford launched its new flagship, the Buzzard Telescopic VFA.
The reach of the new machine can range from 7.25m to 8.0m, with a forward reach adjustment of up to 2.1m and 1.1m to the rear. This, says the manufacturer, allows it to work well in both long reach and close quarter situations with the ability to place the cutter head in behind the tractors' rear wheel.
With a 125 litre per minute hydraulic system, 74hp is produced at the cutting head. Standard features include parallel linkage ,oil cooler, arm and head float, cutting head transport bracket, hydraulic breakout, and LED road lighting.
Various control options are available, including the top-spec ICS system with fully proportional controls.

By Spc. Garrett DipumaApril 14, 2017
NEW ORLEANS -- Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards, surrounded by Louisiana National Guardsmen and LANG children, signed a proclamation recognizing April as month of the military child at the state capitol building in Baton Rouge, April 12.
Since 1986, the Army has celebrated April as month of the military child and there is a special effort to wear purple or "purple up" to recognize the significant contribution and unique challenges that military children face in their lives.
"Military children sacrifice a lot for their parents because their parents can be gone frequently due to deployments or training," said Maj. Gen. Glenn H. Curtis, the adjutant general of the LANG. "It's important to recognize their sacrifices."
Governor Edwards echoed this sentiment in his proclamation.
"Military children are the source of pride and honor that Americans have regarding their Soldiers' support to the nation," he said. "It is fitting to recognize our military children's contributions and celebrate their spirit."
Maj. Ebony Carter, director or the LANG Child and Youth Program (CYP), also spoke on the challenges that many military children overcome in their young lives.
"Military children are often overlooked as contributors to service member readiness and they are great examples of resilience and flexibility," said Carter. "Military children are often charged with tasks to bridge the gap or help out when their parent and, in some cases, parents are away. They are often most understanding when birthdays, ball games or recitals are missed because a loved one is deployed or training."
The CYP hosts many different camps and workshops throughout the year for LANG children, most notably their Youth Leadership Camp and Kids' Annual Training, both of which are held in June.

Thank you for having me and for giving me the opportunity to talk to you. I hope that what I will say will be informative and enlightening.
For every story there are two sides, but facts have only one side. I will not restrict myself to give the Arab side of the story but also some facts about the origin of the Arab-Israeli conflict that the Americans in their great majority do not know.
All the attempts being made today to solve the Arab-Israeli conflict are based on the fact that Israel is the strongest of the two parties and can therefore impose its will. They are not based on international law, and most importantly, they are not based on justice. They are based on the fact that might is right. In the Declaration of Principles signed on September 13, 1993 in Washington, the word just appears once at the beginning in the cliché "just, lasting and comprehensive peace". This Declaration is NOT a peace agreement that goes into the details of how the peace is going to be achieved. It is supposed to lay down the principles upon which the conflict will be solved. Justice, unfortunately, is not a very appealing word. By contrast, the statement issued by the National Conference of Catholic Bishops in November 1989 and entitled Toward Peace in the Middle East, the word justice appears almost in every page, along with other principles "rooted in a moral assessment of the problem." When I listen to the Israeli politicians or when I read their columns that appear every now and then in the American press the word justice is conspicuously absent. Unfortunately, the "free" media in this country is not interested in justice either. This is what I want to talk about. I want to talk about things that Americans do not usually read or hear about in the media.
There are three categories of people. Those who know the whole story of the tragedy of Palestine, they know its origin and how it started and how it developed but for some reason they stand against it. I was always baffled by that. So I asked this question to a knowledgeable man and his answer was political expediency. These are mostly the politicians, the media people and every one who wants to boost his or her own career. The second category is made up of laymen who get their information not from specialized sources (history books, journals) but from the first category of people and so their information is incomplete, often times distorted and sometimes just plain wrong. The third one is made up of those who know the whole story and don't hide it. This is unfortunately a very tiny minority in the United States.
So misinformation and even disinformation are the main culprit. For the American public to figure out how the problem can be solved they have to be informed. They must look for the root cause, sometimes through thick layers of distortions, in order to be able to form an opinion and evaluate the solutions being proposed.
Let me give an example. We keep hearing the expression Arabs & Jews. This expression is based on a false premise. Its like comparing apples and oranges. The right equivalent to Jews would be Christians or Muslims (members of different faiths); the right equivalent to Arabs is Hebrews (members of different races or ethnic groups); other counterparts would be: Palestinians vs. Israelis or Arabism vs. Zionism. I am a Christian Arab. Not all the Jews are my cousins and neither are all the Christians nor all the Muslims. My cousins are the Hebrews, the Jews who live or used to live in the Arab countries. Arabs and Hebrews are both Semitic people and both words are made up of the same Semitic three-letter root (`rb & `br ). The Jews of Europe, the Ashkenazi, are Jews but not Hebrews (Ashkenaz is the medieval Hebrew name for Germany). Nor are they Semites in the first place, a fact that points to a misuse of another term, that of anti-Semitism. As a matter of fact, the Ashkenazi Jews have no historic link to Palestine. They descend from the Khazars, a Tartar people of Turkish origin who converted to Judaism at the time of Charlemagne in the 8th century. Their homeland is located in south-eastern Russia between the Caspian and the Black seas.
This confusion and others are deliberately cultivated by the pro-Israel forces so that the public mixes all these notions together and keeps injecting religion into the debate. It is then easier to throw at anyone who criticizes Israel the detestable accusation of anti-Semitism which has the effect of tying one's hand, tongue and pen. It takes a lot of courage for anyone to ignore this accusation hanging like a sword of Damocles over him. It should be emphasized however that religion is not intrinsically the problem. It is only part of it in the sense that it is exploited for political purposes. The Zionist project or enterprise was never a religious one. The Zionist founders of Israel are all atheists or agnostics, from Herzl all the way down to Ben-Gurion, Shamir, Rabin and so on. When Herzl, for example, considered the location of the Jewish state, Palestine was one of the choices, "Shall we choose Palestine or Argentina?" wrote Herzl in his book The Jewish State. It was merely a question of finding a "vacant space." Herzl tried to obtain "territorial concessions" in Mozambique. Other locations considered were the Belgian Congo, Cyprus, Sinai and Uganda. It was only after Herzl death that the World Zionist Organization decided in 1905 in favor of Palestine. It is ironic today to hear the Israeli leaders saying that God gave them the Land of Israel, a term that, incidentally, never appears in the first six books of the Bible, that is the Pentateuch plus Joshua. (Instead the Bible refers to the Land of Canaan, which means that the Hebrews were coming to settle in a land already settled by another people).
Furthermore, the majority of Israelis today are secular. They don't care about religion. This runs against the very notion of Jewish people, as it is understood in the Bible, that of a religious people obeying God's command. When Jimmy Carter, a deeply religious person, visited Israel in 1973, he expected to see an Israel with a biblical character. He didn't. So when he met with Golda Meir, the then Prime Minister, he told her about "the general absence of religious interest among the Israelis" and added that "during biblical times, the Israelites triumphed when they were close to God and were defeated when unfaithful". But she indicated to him that "this was not a matter of concern to her because there were certainly enough 'orthodox' Jews around." A rather revealing answer (see his book The Blood of Abraham). Therefore, to define Israel as a Jewish state, in the biblical sense, is deceptive. The best definition is the one given by Maxime Rodinson who characterized the state of Israel as a Colonial-Settler State. The British were instrumental in the creation of the state of Israel; and now the Americans are instrumental in sustaining it.
If you look at the Zionist leaders in the past and the Israeli leaders today, they are all either born in Europe or from parents originally from Europe. Yitzhak Rabin, presently Prime Minister, while born in Jerusalem in 1922, his real name is Rabinovitch; his father is the American Nehemia and his mother the Russian Ronda. Shimon Peres, real name Persky, was born in 1923 in Vishneva, Belorussia. Yitzhak Shamir, real name Yzernitzky, was born in 1915 in Ruzinoy, Poland. Menahem Wolfovitch Begin was born in 1913 in Brest-Litovsk, Poland. Golda Meir, maiden name Mabovitch, was born in 1898 in Kiev, Russia; was married to Morris Meyerson; after settling in Palestine in 1921 changed her name into Meir. David Ben-Gurion was born in 1886 in Plonsk, Russian Poland; his real name is David Gryn. Moshe Dayan was born in 1915 in the kibbutz Deganyah Alef; his father Shemuel came from Ukraine to Palestine in 1908. Teddy Kollek was born in 1911 in Vienna, Austria. Abba Eban was born in 1915 in Cape Town, South Africa; his real name is Aubrey and his mother is originally from Lithuania. The present and the first Presidents of Israel are from the Russian family Weizmann. Ezer, was born in Tel Aviv in 1924; his father Mikhail settled in Palestine in 1914. Chaim was born in 1874 in Motol, Poland, which was part of the Russian Empire. The previous President, Chaim Herzog was born in 1918 in Dublin. Unless we change the etymological meaning of the word homeland, there is no way Palestine can be the homeland of these people. As the columnist, Joseph Sobran, put it, "How is that people who have been born and bred in Brooklyn or Minsk can claim to own Palestine?"
* * *
It has been said that the Palestinians made a mistake by refusing the UN partition plan of 1947, whereby Palestine would have been partitioned in two states, one "Jewish" and one Arab. By contrast, the Zionist leaders accepted partition. The truth, of course, is much more complex than that. While they did accept that part of the resolution calling for the creation of a "Jewish" state, they did not accept the territorial limits of that state, nor did they accept the parallel Palestinian state envisioned in the resolution. Israel acceptance was, in fact, a tactical one. Ben-Gurion declared that the new state had been established only in "a portion of Israel" and that "we have to set up a dynamic state bent upon expansion." But let us for the sake of argument suppose that this was the case. Imagine someone claiming that your house is his and after a heated discussion the matter is presented to an arbitrator who finds that the best solution given the circumstances is partition. Would you go along with partition?
I believe most of you know the Bible story of King Solomon (1 Kings 3.16) who ordered the partition of the child. While no two situations are identical this Bible story can be enlightening. What was the real mother's reaction? No partition. The real mother renounced her son in order to save his life. Could the Palestinians have renounced their homeland to save it? I wonder what would have been King Solomon's approach to give this land to its rightful owners as he gave the child to his real mother? I am telling this story so you won't be too harsh on the Palestinians for refusing partition. This is after all what any reasonable person would have done. How can the Zionists/"Jews", the great majority of whom had been in Palestine less than 30 years, have claims equal, if not superior, to those of native Palestinians. The Zionists accepted partition in the pure knowledge that the Palestinians would not. And the Palestinians were bound to oppose their own dispossession. The irony is that the force they have used became "Arab aggression" in world eyes and the force used by the Zionists against the natives came to pass, deceptively, as war of "independence."
* * *
Where do we go from here?
1. It seems to me that the first thing is to recognize that the Palestinians were the victims of an injustice of an enormous proportion. Their homeland was taken from them by a foreign people. The following statistics will demonstrate that. In 1919, before the colonization of Palestine started in earnest, the Jews, mainly native Arab Jews, constituted 9.7 percent of the population and owned 2.04 percent of the land. In 1946, in spite of all the colonization efforts, the Jews, mainly non-native Eastern European Jews, constituted 35.1 percent of the population (see population map) and owned 7.0 percent of the land (see land ownership map). Today, the situation is reversed. Out of 5 million Palestinians, 2 million live in the Diaspora whether as refugees or as citizens of other countries. The remaining 3 million live under Israeli rule: 1 million as third class citizens of Israel (the second class being the Oriental Jews) and 2 million live under a brutal Israeli military occupation in their own homeland. The responsible party for this tragedy are the Zionists. They must have the honesty to admit that they perpetrated the crime of displacing a people from its homeland and stealing its land, something that the Hebrews didn't do when they came to the Land of Canaan some 3,000 years ago.
In 1895, Theodor Herzl noted in his Diaries that something had to be done about the Palestinian natives:We shall have to spirit the penniless population across the border by procuring employment for it in the transit countries, while denying it any employment in our own country. Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discreetly and circumspectly.During the thirties, Joseph Weitz was the director of the Jewish National Fund, the agency that was set up to purchase land in Palestine. His diaries and papers were published in My Diary, and Letter to Children. In 1940, he wrote:It must be clear that there is no room for both peoples in this country. No "development" will bring us closer to our aim, to be an independent people in this small country. If the Arabs leave the country, it will be broad and wide-open for us. And if the Arabs stay, the country will remain narrow and miserable... and the only solution is Eretz Israel, or at least Western Eretz Israel, without Arabs. There is no room for compromise on this point! ... and there is no way besides transferring the Arabs from here to the neighboring countries, to transfer them all; except maybe for Bethlehem, Nazareth and Old Jerusalem, we must not leave a single village, not a single tribe. And the transfer must be directed to Iraq, to Syria, and even to Transjordan. For that purpose we'll find money, and a lot of money. And only with such a transfer will the country be able to absorb millions of our brothers, and the Jewish question shall be solved, once and for all. There is no other way out. [Emphasis added]What Joseph Weitz is advocating is in fact ethnic cleansing. But instead of using the term he uses transfer as a euphemism. While the media was quick to pass judgment on David Duke, even though he repudiated his past, and accused him of using code words, this same media conveniently failed to see in the word transfer, used today by Ariel Sharon and by Gush Emunim, a code word for ethnic cleansing. Moshe Dayan in an article printed in Ha-Aretz, April 4, 1969 acknowledged, without using the term, that what happened in 1948-49 was ethnic cleansing.We came to this country which was already populated by Arabs, and we are establishing a Hebrew, that is a Jewish state here. ... Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these villages and I do not blame you, because these geography books no longer exist; not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either. Nahala [Dayan's own village] arose in the place of Mahalul, Gevat--in the place of Jibta, [Kibbutz] Sarid--in the place of Haneifs and kefar Yehoshua--in the place of Tell Shaman. There is not one place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population. [Emphasis added]2. The second thing is to recognize that--after all that--Israel was not able to destroy the Palestinian identity. This process of destruction of the identity started with the denying of the existence of a Palestinian people. In an interview published in the Sunday Times of London (June 15, 1969) Golda Meir said:There was no such thing as Palestinians... It was not as though there was a Palestinian people in Palestine considering itself as a Palestinian people and we came and threw them out and took their country away from them. They did not exist. [Emphasis added]This is worse than ethnic cleansing. This is killing the identity of a whole people. Israeli leaders and particularly the Likud, if you carefully listen to them, always avoid using the term Palestinian people. Instead they say the inhabitants of the territories or the Palestinian Arabs which means by implication that they are Palestinian Jews. That is why it was so important for Israel not to recognize the PLO. Recognizing the PLO which represents the Palestinian people will necessarily mean recognition of the Palestinians as a people. The recent recognition by Israel of the PLO is an enormous step forward. I do not minimize it but it is still not enough. Israel has yet to recognize the Palestinian's right of self-determination and their right of return to their homes and homeland. It has yet to recognize also that it is an occupier. Zionism, Israel's ideology, needs to reform itself and move away from an ideology built upon expansion at the expense of the other and on the exclusion of the other to an ideology that accepts the natives of Palestine, as human beings with inalienable rights.
3. The third thing is to recognize that the only solution for this problem is to give a state to the Palestinians. Coexistence is virtually impossible in the present condition where Palestinians have to live under the shadow of an army of occupation. Giving the Palestinians a state on one fifth of their homeland would not do them justice but will certainly put an end to this disgraceful occupation that the Israelis, looking for justification, cynically called it "the most humane occupation in history."
* * *
Let us now look at the situation as it is today and ask ourselves what is Israel up to? The PLO's objective is clear. The Palestinians want to get rid of the occupation and establish a state of their own. But what about Israel?
If it was up to Israel, it would have done today what it did in 1947. It would have driven out by force the Palestinians of the West Bank and Gaza and annexed these territories and the whole problem, as far as Israel is concerned, would have been solved. This is Israel's first and preferred choice. Unfortunately for Israel, in this age of television this cannot be done. Israel was not even able to do in 1967 what it did in 1947. This doesn't mean that there is not in Israel today voices calling for the "transfer" (a code word for expulsion) of the Arabs from the "Land of Israel". Rehavam Ze'evi, who was a minister in Shamir's cabinet, is openly for mass deportation of Arabs, even Israeli Arabs, to other countries.
What must be emphasized is that Israel will never do anything that runs counter to its Zionist ideology unless it is forced to. Israel has finally recognized the PLO as the legitimate representative of the Palestinian people. Israel didn't take this step because it came to its senses, or because it came to the wonderful conclusion that indeed there is a Palestinian people and the PLO is its representative. The intifada forced Israel to do so.
Israel didn't "withdraw" from Gaza because it wanted to, but because it was forced to, by the Intifada. Didn't Rabin say to the members of the pro-Israel Washington Institute for Near East Policy in 1992 that he wished "Gaza would sink into the sea. But since that is not going to happen a solution must be found to the problem of the Gaza Strip?" (New York Jewish Week Sep.11-17, 1992). As I see it now, Israel will never withdraw from the West Bank. It will take a lot more than what it took in Gaza for Israel to withdraw from what it calls Judea and Samaria.
Similarly, Israel didn't withdraw from Sinai willingly or because Sadat made a great impression on Menachem Begin. Israel withdrew from Sinai because it could not say no to the President of the United States, its only benefactor. Jimmy Carter's book Keeping Faith, Memoirs of a President is a must for anyone who wants to know how Begin did everything he could, and failed, to sabotage the talks in Camp David.
Israel's ultimate goal is not a secret. Israel has a plan for the West Bank, i.e., for Judea and Samaria and it will implement it if it can. The West Bank constitutes less than 20 percent of pre-1948 Mandatory Palestine. Israel has so far seized more than 70 (73.6) percent of just the West Bank under different pretexts. It has never ceased to build new settlements or expanding existing ones, in spite of Rabin's pledge to the contrary, in order to get the $10 billion loan guarantees. It is completing a 400-kilometer network of "settler roads" in the West Bank that are off limits to Palestinians at a cost of $600 million. With these roads the West Bank is going to be fragmented into "a Swiss cheese" of Palestinian towns surrounded by Israeli settlements (see map 1b). To achieve this highway project, Israel is ordering the confiscation of Palestinian land and the destruction of Palestinian property, including many homes and farms. The purpose of the new highways is to enable Jewish settlers to bypass Palestinian cities and villages, as they move to and from Jerusalem and from one settlement to another. These links serve to strengthen the status of the settlements as integral parts of Israel.
At the same time, these highways, and the settlements they serve, form barriers that help to advance the dismemberment of the West Bank which will be disconnected into two parts or cantons or better yet bantustans. (Bantustans are those homelands or "reservations" that the previous apartheid government of South Africa wanted to establish for its Black population). By making any contact between these bantustans extremely difficult, Israel will be able to maintain its subjugation of the Palestinians. If Israel has its way, this is what we are heading to (see map 2).
The Oslo Agreement, officially called the Declaration of Principles started this process. If peace is what is needed to be achieved between the Israelis and the Palestinians, then any observer with a minimum of objectivity will have to recognize that this Declaration of Principles is fundamentally flawed. It should be emphasized also that this Declaration is not much more than an agreement to seek an agreement at a later date, though it was advertised as a peace treaty.
This Agreement basically reflects the inescapable balance of power between the two sides on the ground. It is true that Israel has recognized the PLO as the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people (the one and only concession made by Israel), but it has not recognized that the Palestinians have legitimate national rights. On the other hand, Arafat and the PLO unilaterally made one concession after the other without even securing and independent international mechanism which will guarantee the implementation of the Agreement. It requires the Palestinians to cease resistance to Israeli occupation while they continue to suffer under that occupation. It requires Syria to normalize relations fully with Israel even as Israel continues to occupy Syrian soil. It requires all the Arabs to befriend Israel while they live under the shadow of its nuclear arsenal and need its permission to pray in Jerusalem.
Because of the fact that the balance of power is in its favor, the government of Israel doesn't have to worry if it doesn't implement important sections of the Agreement such as: to redeploy the army outside the populated areas of the West Bank by July 1994, which is a pre-condition for the talk on expanding interim self-rule to the West Bank; to allow holding Palestinian elections in July 1994; to secure a safe passage between Gaza and Jericho; to release all Palestinian prisoners. Israel, in fact, has selected to implement from the Agreement only those aspects which guarantee its complete control of borders and security matters and which grant it a veto on all matters of importance to Palestinian life.
There are three main flaws in the Oslo Agreement.
1. Settlements. The discussion of the issue of Jewish settlements in the occupied territories is postponed until the beginning of the third year after the implementation of the Agreement. To begin with, by putting its name to an Agreement that omits reference to the status of the settlements, the PLO has implicitly weakened the moral and legal arguments against these enclaves. As for Israel, it undertook to negotiate the future of the settlements, but in the meantime it continues with massive enlargements of existing ones and creating new ones, particularly in and around the Jerusalem area. While Rabin is speaking about "separation", his government has increased settlements in the West Bank by 10 percent in two years and is planing on building 30,000 new homes in the coming three or four years, in addition to 13,000 already approved for East Jerusalem. All for Jews only. Rabin is simply carrying out what Begin has started, that is cut the West Bank into bits and pieces so that there can be no possibility of any territorial compromise over the West Bank. Back in 1980, Meir Merhave, the economics editor of the Jerusalem Post told Time Magazine of March 31, 1980: The West Bank "is to be carved up by a grid of roads, settlements and strongholds into a score of little Bantustans so that (the Palestinians) shall never coalesce again into a contiguous area that can support autonomous, let alone independent existence."
2. Refugees. The exclusion of the issue of the Palestinian refugees of the 1948 and 1967 wars--the more than 2.6 million Palestinians living in refugee camps or scattered in the wider diaspora--from immediate discussion. According to the international law those Palestinians should be given a choice of either returning to their homes or of being compensated. For many Palestinians, abandoning the refugees of 1948 would be tantamount to abandoning the Palestinian cause itself. It is ironic to see that Russian Jews are invited to "return" to a country in which they have never set foot while Palestinian refugees who were driven out of their homeland by force and terror 47 years ago are totally ignored.
3. East Jerusalem. This is another important omission in the Oslo Agreement. The issue at stake here is not simply one of an occupied city, for Jerusalem is of immense religious significance. Whenever the Palestinians mention Jerusalem Israel immediately accuses them of violating the Oslo Agreement, according to which the final status of the Holy City will be determined in negotiations scheduled to start by 1996. Meanwhile Israel does not miss one opportunity to declare that united Jerusalem is the eternal capital of the Jewish state, as if such a declaration is not violating the same Agreement. The continuous building of settlements in around Jerusalem (another violation) is causing so much alarm for the Christian community all over the world that eight American religious leaders wrote a letter on March 6 to President Clinton accusing Israel of negotiating in bad faith on the status of Jerusalem. Among those who signed the letter Cardinal William Keeler of Baltimore, President of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops; The Most Rev. Edmond Browning, President Bishop and Primate of the Episcopal Church; and The Rev. Herbert Chilstrom, Bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
Let me quote extensively from the letter.Above all we ask that the Administration uses its influence to prevent this vital issue from being settled by force of vents or the creation of facts on the ground...
We come to you because developments on the ground in the Jerusalem area leave less and less for negotiations in the last phase of the peace process:
. In contravention of international law, more and more land is taken out of Palestinian hands and placed under Israeli control by annexation, expropriation, and private purchases, often coercive or of questionable legality;
. Israeli planning for "Greater Jerusalem" is an open secret; and
. Israel's assertion that Jerusalem will remain the "eternal and undivided capital of Israel" is widely interpreted as a claim of exclusive Israeli sovereignty over the city that preempts genuine negotiation.
We are concerned:
. that the Administration is backing away from the long-term United States policy that East Jerusalem is subject to UN Security Council Resolution 242 regarding territories occupied by Israel armed forces in 1967;
. that the Administration is failing to recognize and support Palestinian rights and interest in Jerusalem;
. that the Administration is not using its considerable influence to halt Israeli construction in East Jerusalem and continued expansion into Palestinian areas.
... The future of Jerusalem must not be preempted by the actions of any one party. Only a negotiated agreement that respects the human and political rights of Palestinians and Israelis as well as the three religious communities (Jewish, Christian and Muslim) can lead to a lasting peace.
* * *
What makes this conflict very difficult to solve is the involvement of the U.S. since the 40s on the basis of domestic politics rather than consideration of policy, justice and security interests. Domestic politics kept playing a major role in this foreign affairs issue, something that should not have happened. As far back as 1946, President Truman told a group of diplomats called home to report to the State Department on the deteriorating U.S. position in the Middle East: "I'm sorry, gentlemen, but I have to answer to hundreds of thousands who are anxious for the success of Zionism. I do not have hundreds of thousands of Arabs among my constituents." Until today American Middle East policy is being directed by a minority pressure group using the leverage of domestic politics.
Senator William Fulbright died two months ago on February 9, 1995. He was chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and one of few American politicians who was fully aware of the existence of a pressure group in the U.S. which seeks to inject the Arab-Israeli dispute into domestic politics. Knowing that in foreign policy American interests must come first, he never allowed himself to be deterred by the almost pathological orientation of the United States toward Israel. In his book The Price of Empire, he wrote: "So completely have many of our principal officeholders fallen under Israeli influence that they not only deny today the Palestinian national aspirations, but debate who more passionately opposes a Palestinian state." These are very strong words. Senator Fulbright also had memorable interventions about the Middle East on the Senate floor. Missing from every account, however, both in the New York Times and the Washington Post, the so-called "newspapers of records," which devoted a half page or more to this remarkable Arkansas Democrat, was any mention of his strongly and his often voiced Middle East views. In the five Washington Post stories on the Senator, there was not one word about his resolute Middle East stand. This is how free the media is.
How in the world can anyone judge a conflict in which he is a party. This is unfortunately the situation of the United States, a situation that led Charley Resse, a syndicated columnist based in Orlando, to say: "The United States has no Middle East policy. Israel does, and the United States carries it out. This is a disgrace and will prove a tragedy for Palestinians and Israelis alike." (Orlando Sentinel, March 20, 1995)

Orlando Chiropractic | We Can Help
When it comes to your health, you deserve the best care available
The Orlando chiropractors and healthcare team of Kirkman Chiropractic successfully treat patients with a variety of conditions, such as neck pain, back pain, headaches, sports injuries, automobile injuries, disc problems, arthritis and more. Most problems can be treated very effectively, naturally, and without the use of medication or surgical intervention.
Some of the most common conditions we see at our Orlando chiropractic office are:
Neck Pain
Neck pain can be triggered by simple everyday activities like sleeping position, computer time, accidents or a myriad of other activities. Sometimes a more serious problem may exist. Causes can range from injury, poor posture, subluxations, stress, arthritic decay, and even disc herniations. Thankfully, most are minor and resolve in a brief period of time with regular chiropractic care.
Back Pain
Eighty-percent of the general population suffers from back pain at some point in their lives. Most of the time minor issues will resolve after a day of rest, but sometimes problems are more involved and need assistance.
The nerve rich facet joints that guide the motion in the back can become inflamed and restricted. The discs or spacers between the vertebra can swell and bulge leading to intense pain. Pain medication may decrease the pain, but returning to normal function is the only way to preserve the health of the injured region. Our team of professionals can safely evaluate your condition and determine the root cause of your problem. Most back pain issues can be resolved naturally through chiropractic care and rehabilitation.
The most common cause of headaches lies within the spinal column. These headaches are commonly referred to as cervicogenic headaches and come about as a result of pressure on the nerves of the neck, upper back and head. When these nerves become irritated and inflamed it can lead to muscle spasms which then bring on headaches. Many times the problem stems from physical trauma, postural issues, bad habits, and even emotional stress. Chiropractic treatments help to return normal movement to the area and can break the cycle of pain.
If you or a loved one are suffering from headaches, please call our Orlando chiropractic office to schedule a thorough consultation and examination. Our team of professionals can help determine the cause of your headaches, and tailor a specific program to help you get back to feeling your best.
Automobile Injuries & Whiplash
Whiplash is the common term applied to neck injuries sustained in an automobile accident. The rapid forward and backward motion that occurs in an accident pushes the tissues of the body beyond their normal limits. Injury can occur to the muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves, discs and joints.
Common symptoms associated with a whiplash injury are neck, back, arm and leg pain, as well as headaches, muscle stiffness and general fatigue. Left unattended, symptoms may decrease, but without proper treatment long term effects like scarring and arthritis become inevitable. A thorough evaluation with one of our doctors can help determine the areas of involvement and allow us to set a course of beneficial treatment. Chiropractic care, including neuromuscular massage and rehabilitative exercise can assist in returning the patient to their pre-injury status.

RANDALL BEACH: Sherlock Holmes and David Musto live on at this Yale gathering
When the Yale Sherlock Holmes Society convened last Thursday night, their aim was to honor society founder David Musto, to hear Dr. Henry Lee discuss applying Holmesian logic to solving homicides and to see a good old Holmes movie.
Musto's widow, Jeanne, was sitting in the front row at Yale's Davies Auditorium, feeling wistful.
Her husband used to live for nights such as this, but he died in October 2010 at age 74.
She told me that when Musto was in his early teens, a friend of his gave him Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Complete Stories of Sherlock Holmes," which Musto eagerly raced through and began his collection of "Sherlockiana."
She said he dug Holmes because of "the fun of following a masterful sleuth in pursuit of the bad guy."
After they married, they sometimes sat by the fireplace, drinking tea and eating crumpets while listening to Sherlock Holmes stories on the radio.
After Musto came to Yale, he and other faculty members regularly gathered at Mory's, not drinking tea but always discussing Holmes. They eventually concluded Yale needed a Sherlock Holmes Society.
It became an annual tradition for Musto to organize a summer lecture and Holmes film for the society and the public. This was revived last week, in Musto's honor.
"He would want everyone to know that Sherlock Holmes lives on," his wife said.
Yale professor Dr. Linda Mayes, who organized the event, told the audience Musto was "the bringer of all things Sherlockian to Yale. His memory of the Holmes canon was legendary."
Then she brought on Lee, the famous forensic scientist now based at the University of New Haven. He began by recalling how Musto had pestered him to first address the society in 2008.
"He called me so many times. He even called my mother! He offered me some nice wine." Lee ultimately agreed to talk and returned Thursday in honor of Musto.
"Sherlock Holmes is a hero of mine," Lee noted. "When I was young, I read Sherlock Holmes stories. My mother yelled at me; I read him with a flashlight, under the blankets."
Many decades later, Lee added, "We copy what Sherlock Holmes does to solve the case."
"Sherlock Holmes always said: 'You have to observe. You have to see it.' And I usually say: 'You look but you did not see.'"
Lee said he uses this power of observation all the time. "Every day when I go home, I check the garbage so I know what my wife did all day."
Lee spoke in front of a giant screen, flashing images of the cases he has worked on and solved. Suddenly we found ourselves beholding photos of bloody corpses, all in a day's work for Dr. Lee.
As he talked about the cases, Lee quizzed the audience, asking what they were noticing about the photographs. When somebody had a good answer, he rewarded that person by tossing one of his Lee medals in the direction of the prize pupil.
For instance, one day during lunch, Lee got a call from the police because there had been a multiple motor vehicle pile-up on the Merritt Parkway in Hamden and there was also a corpse lying in the road who had seemingly been shot.
"Wow! This is interesting!" Lee said when he got to the scene. "What's interesting?" he asked the crowd as he pointed to the photo of that corpse.
"He seems to be naked," noted Jack Hitt, a local author.
Lee tossed a medal to Hitt. "How many of you drive naked?" he asked. "Elementary, my dear Watson! That's some clue."
Lee said he solved the case by reconstructing how the victim was shot by a man riding behind him in the rear seat. "Boom! Boom! Holy smoke!"
Lee said it also helped that he thought to look in the glove compartment and obtain information about the car's owner.
Then he asked how many of us have ever killed a live chicken. More than a few in the assembly claimed they had done so. Lee noted that a chicken with its head cut off will continue to run around and that a young man whose head had been shot off walked 174 feet.
He was on a roll and he kept taking us through his cases, even O.J. Simpson, for which he assisted the defense. "From day one, we were thinking two people did it." He said a man who has researched the case for years is about to publish a book and told Lee, "Dr. Lee, you're right! Two people!"
After holding the stage for nearly two hours, Lee offered up another quote from Holmes: "Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore, it is upon the logic rather than the crime that you should dwell."
