Did the Pulitzer Prize miss the season of change in the Middle East?
A few days ago, I was in Ankara having a conversation with a senior advisor to Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. As we were talking, I heard a loud bang outside his office window, as if someone had fired a gun nearby. Needless to say, I was startled, but my friend and his assistant remained unmoved by the noise. "[It was] just a sound bomb", he said. Apparently, things like this often happened. We stood near the window and watched the rushing police cars and listened to their sirens. I comforted my disturbed heart by whispering, "Relax!, this is Ankara, not Kabul or Baghdad."
Explosions are a new normal in our world. Violence, indeed egregious violence, has become such a big part of our lives that in some ways we are even beginning to celebrate it.
Massoud Hossaini, an Afghan news photographer, was taking pictures at a Kabul shrine on 6 December, 2011, when he too heard a loud explosion. A few shocking moments later he was photographing a 10-year-old girl, Tarana Akbari, standing in the midst of dead men, women and children. A suicide bomber had struck a Shia shrine in Kabul that killed 70 people. Tarana's soul and Hossaini's camera were eye-witnesses to this gory reality.
One of the pictures that Hossaini took of Tarana was awarded a Pulitzer Prize. People like Hossaini deserve every reward that society can bestow upon them for their service and bravery. The stories that they tell today become our history tomorrow.
Yet despite its importance I do not feel that the photo deserves a Pulitzer Prize at this moment. My feelings are not related to Hossaini's own accomplishments but to the larger issues at play in determining what we value.
There is a proverb that a picture is worth a thousand words. And award-winning pictures are full-fledged narratives. Hossaini's picture has now become another episode in the never-ending Western fascination with the horrors of the Muslim world. I can understand that the dramatic nature of the picture makes it a strong candidate for an award, but the story behind the picture is unworthy of recognition at this time.
Awards like the Oscars, Nobels and Pulitzers determine how we frame history. These awards do recognise merit but they are also political markers and reflect how the West wishes to understand and portray the world. US President Barack Obama's Nobel Prize for peace in 2009 is one of those striking examples that remind us that these awards are narratives and not just prizes. President Obama had until then done little to earn the prize, but his victory in the 2008 elections was seen by many as a promise that American discourse on world affairs would change and promote peace internationally; a message reinforced by this award.
However, in 2011, the most prominent narrative was not terrorism but the quest for democracy. 2011 did not stand out because of Muslim violence; indeed it was special for the collective Muslim cry for freedom and liberation: the Arab Spring. Pictures of Tahrir Square, full of fervour, promise and hope, deserve recognition more than pictures of what is left behind after bombs have exploded, missiles have landed and drones have struck.
In 2011, I think the Nobel Prize for Peace committee followed the momentum of history by recognising the role women peace-makers were playing, awarding the prize to Liberia's Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Leymah Gbowee, and Yemen's Tawakkol Karman. Unfortunately, though, I believe that the Pulitzer Prize this year missed a season of change.

Hear a New Led Zeppelin Cover Featuring the Late Frankie Banali
Hookers & Blow, featuring Guns N' Roses keyboardist Dizzy Reed and Quiet Riot guitarist Alex Grossi, released a heavy cover of Led Zeppelin's "Trampled Under Foot." The track features a posthumous appearance by Quiet Riot drummer Frankie Banali, who died earlier this month from pancreatic cancer.
The track, here titled "Trampled Underfoot," recreates the hard funk attack of the Physical Graffiti tune, with Reed replicating John Paul Jones' jerky clavinet. "Tramped Underfoot," which also features W.A.S.P. bassist Mike Duda, was recorded individually and largely mixed this year during quarantine.
You can listen to it below.
"Tramped Underfoot" is the fourth single from the group's upcoming covers record, which comes out later this year. The track follows recently shared versions of Eddie Money's "Shakin'," the Rolling Stones' "Rocks Off" and David Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust."
The band dedicated the new cover to Banali, with a portion of the single's proceeds benefiting the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN), Blabbermouth reports.
"This song was added into our live set during our first residency at the Whisky A Go Go in 2013 for Frankie Banali to come down and jam on," Grossi said in a statement. "When it came time to picking songs to cover for this record, naturally we had this one on the list with Frankie on drums.''
Hookers & Blow have utilized a rotating crew of touring members since their founding in 2003. The current lineup also includes Johnny Kelly (Type O Negative, Danzig), Robbie Crane (Black Star Riders) and Nadja Reed.

Auto Body Shop Hail Damage Repair Minnetonka MN
Hail Damage Repair 55305
Paintless Dent Repair (PDR), additionally referred to as paintless damage elimination, describes an approach of getting rid of small dents from the body of an automobile. A wide variety of damages can be repaired making use of Paintless Dent Repair as long as the paint surface is intact. Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) may be used on both aluminum and also steel panels.
The most typical sensible usage for Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) is the repair service of hail storm damage, door dings, minor creases, huge damages and also bodylines damages.
The method can also be utilized to prepare a damaged panel for repainting by minimizing the use of body filler. This technique is currently known as "push to paint" or "push to prep".
Limiting aspects for an effective fixing using Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) include the flexibility of the paint (most of today's refined auto paint finishes enable successful PDR) and the level to which the metal has actually been extended by the damage, which depends on the thickness of the metal, the curvature or monotony where the damage took place as well as the intensity of the effect. Usually speaking, the shallower the dent, the better the possibility of paintless dent repair being an appropriate choice. Also damages a number of inches in size can be repaired by this approach as long as the steel as well as paint are not extended. The majority of experienced professionals can fix a superficial huge damage or fold to an acceptable degree, but really sharp dents as well as creases might not appropriate for Paintless Dent Repair (PDR)..
Paintless Dent Removal Technics | Hail Damage Repair Minnetonka MN
The most common PDR techniques utilize metal rods and body picks to push out the dents from the underside of the body panel. Glue and specially designed tabs may be used to pull out the dents from the outside of the panel. Fine tuning the repair often involves tapping down the repair to remove small high spots. Quality service technicians can mix high spots to match the texture of the paint called orange peel. Pressing too hard can produce high spots that cause the clear coat and also paint to crack or divide. Experienced specialists can avoid fracturing or chipping with using warm, although a re-painted surface has a greater likelihood of cracking. Moreover, it is reckless to "adhesive pull" a repainted panel, because you take the chance of also pulling non manufacturing facility paint off. When damage is so terrific that body filler is needed, a Paintless Dent Repair professional might "press to paint", resolving a lot of the damage prior to minor dental filling, fining sand, and also paint, thereby saving time as well as expense.
Hail Damage Repair Process
The Hail Damage Repair procedure of paintless dent repair requires a professional to control specific places of steel to the correct height, which can only be observed by the use of a Paintless Dent Repair analysis tool such as a paintless dent repair light. Fluorescent or LED illumination, or in many cases a representation board, might be utilized to imagine the deformation of the dent as well as to help the service technician in locating the idea of the tool being utilized to press the steel. Without a reflection from a light or board to read the damage, the fine information of the process might not appropriate for the specialist.
A Smart Auto Body Shop To Repair Your Car When Necessary.
An auto repaired using Hail Damage Repair techniques can be returned to its original shape without using paint or fillers, and the repair can be done more quickly and less expensively than with body shop techniques.

No string sex is one of the best things that can happen to you. You get to have sex with local women without all of the burdens of a real relationship, like remembering birthdays or anniversaries. All you have to do is remember where to meet and fuck. Here are some tips on making no string sex even more fun:
1. Always remind yourself that this is no strings sex. Remember to remind your partner as well. Both of you are just looking for some sex, and not some attachment. Remember to be clear with your intentions as well. Also, it may be perfectly fine to be friends with your casual fuck buddy, but remember to draw the line there.
2. Your fuck buddy is not your wife or your girlfriend, and she probably isn't the first person you should run to when you need to talk. When you are in a no string sexual relationship remember to make it all about sex and not all about you. Nobody wants to listen to you about your ex-wife or your problems at home. Like you, she is there for sex, so make sure to keep it that way.
3. No strings attached sex is the best way to live out a fantasy and to try new things in bed. Always remember, however, to be respectful of her wants. Remember to try everything. If you both want a threesome, why not? If she wants you to tie her to the bed, go for it. Make the most of your time to experiment and make the most out of sex, but don't cross the line.
4. Don't get stuck with just one girl, try out a few. The best way to have fun casual sex is to rotate sexual partners frequently. This will keep your levels on confidence high, and will make it easier for you to remain discrete and avoid attachment. Who knows, you might even be able to get all the girls to fuck you at the same time :).
Here are some do's and don'ts to help you make sure you're having a good time, staying safe and being a good fuck buddy:
DON'T: Don't text her at all hours of the evening. Just because she is having casual sex with you doesn't mean you should be bugging her all the time. She might be married...
DO: Always use a condom and make sure to get tested for STD's regularly. Also, look out for cold sores and don't have casual sex with women who look like they may have had a lot of unprotected sex.
DON'T: Don't stay too long. You're there for casual sex and not a relationship. Remember, she might have just fucked you, but her husband or boyfriend could be coming home any minute.
DON'T: Don't cuddle after sex. Remember you are trying to keep this a no string attached night. You're there for sex, and once you are done you should not be giving her the wrong impression.
DO: Keep repeating to yourself before, during and after sex, that this is just about sex and not love. That good feeling you are getting while she is riding you or giving you a blowjob is not love...
DO: Experiment and keep things wild. You're not there to make love, you're there for crazy sex, so make it crazy. Ask her if you can tie her to the bed, or ask her if you can cum on her face. Chances are she is meeting you for local casual sex because she wants to try new things too!
DON'T: Don't be mean to your casual sex partner. Remember, this could be the first time she has ever had sex with a random local stranger too. She could be nervous, and you probably are too. The goal is to have fun and have sex and to go home laid, not to go home angry.
Avoid sex parties and large gatherings. If you do attend large gatherings or decide to have sex in a group setting, please be sure to follow COVID-19 precautions.
Limit your sex partners and hookups to people in your social bubble and people that you know and trust.
If there are not enough sex partners in your social circle, then enjoy sex virtually. Things such as online adult dating sites, video dates, sexting, sexy Zoom parties or chat rooms are a great way to find someone to hookup with. You can still have a lot of fun with virtual sex, and you can stay safe not just from Covid, but also from other sexually transmitted diseases. Also, it's easier to have virtual sex with more partners ;)
If you do meet for sex in person, wear a face mask, even during sex! Wearing a face mask over your nose and mouth adds a layer of protection.
Make it kinky. Be creative with sexual positions and physical barriers that allow sexual contact while preventing close face-to-face contact.
Masturbate together. Use distance and face masks to reduce the risk of getting sick while you help each other get off!
Wash up before and after sex. Wash hands and sex toys with soap and warm water. Disinfect keyboards and touch screens you
share with others.You've just gotten out of a serious relationship and now you've decided to try a casual adult dating. Where do you start? Are you rusty? There are a few things that you can keep in mind that will help to ensure that your casual relationship remains safe, fun, and most of all, casual.
1. Always make sure to be honest about wanting to keep the relationship casual. After all, you do not want to mislead your partner into thinking you want more when you're really just looking for casual sex.
2. Remember to never spend the night, because this gives your partner the impression that you want to move beyond a casual relationship into a more serious one.
3. Remember that you are not the only one in a casual relationship. You're looking for a local girl that will have sex with you, and chances are that she is just looking for sex too. You're going to talk to hot, sexy women and she will probably end up talking to sexy men or woman as well. This is a casual sex date.
4. Always take care of yourself. Make sure that, when you meet up, you are clean and ready for sex. With casual adult dating, she will be more likely to refuse sex if you do not look clean and ready to go.
5. Remember that she is a fuck buddy, and that you are looking for hot sex and nothing more. Always, ALWAYS, wear protection.
6. Casual dating lets you try new things. Maybe you've always wanted a threesome, or maybe you have never had sex with a blonde. Maybe, you want to be tied up by a hot MILF. Remember to have fun and be adventurous.
There is probably nothing better than hooking up with a hot local girl or meeting up for a one night stand while your travelling or while the wife is away (nobody is judging...) but there are a few things you should always keep in mind:
1. If you live in a large city and you are looking for local girls for sex, you might accidentally see someone you know. If you do, hit her up and see if she wanted to have sex with you, but remember that she is local and you might have the same friends or know the same people.
2. Never spread rumors or share information about the local women you are talking to. They are simply looking for a good time and should be comfortable doing so. By spreading rumors or sharing private information about the girl, you might scare her into deleting her profile. Always respect the girls that are online looking for local hookups, just as you would want them to respect you.
3. Chances are, that if you are trying to meet local women for hookups, dates, casual sex, or even serious relationships, you might end up bumping into them again. Some of these girls might be the girl next door, or a co-worker, nurse, doctor, or anything in your area. You could easily run into past and present casual sex partners, hookups, fuck buddies and friends with benefits in public. Remember to be discrete and respectful.
4. Be discrete! This is very important! When you are online using a casual or adult dating service, discretion is very important. Chances are, you don't want everyone to know you are cheating on your wife, and most girls don't want half the town knowing she has a profile on an adult or casual dating site.

Oral cancer is a growing health concern with cases rising annually around the globe. Although there are several contributing factors, one of the most important is the lack of routine screening. Sadly, a large percentage of diagnosed cases are late stage disease which, if caught earlier, could have been largely curable. The survival rate continues to hover around 50% due to the overall lack of screening that contributes to late stage diagnosis.
Spotting oral cancer in the early stage is the goal of Severna Park, MD dentist Dr. Morgan. We perform an oral cancer screening during routine preventive dental care in an effort to find disease in the early stage and give patients the greatest chance for a full recovery.
It is also important to be aware of the common signs of oral cancer and understand the risks that certain lifestyle habits can present: patients who use tobacco products of any kind have an increased risk of developing oral cancer. If you use tobacco products or have a family history of oral cancer, mention this to Dr. Morgan so that we may educate you further on possible health concerns and be aware of your higher risk status.
Common signs of oral cancer
- Sore or red/white patch in the mouth that does not heal
- Persistent hoarseness
- Lump in the back of the mouth or neck area
- Difficulty swallowing
Oral cancer screening is quick and painless- many patients do not even realize that their dentist has performed the screening while they did a thorough dental exam. Twice yearly visits with Dr. Morgan in Severna Park will enhance our ability to spot early signs of cancer as we develop a more in depth knowledge of your oral health.
Routine dental care not only supports a good quality of life, but can be life saving!

Is Apple's New iPad Mini Worth It? The Pros and Cons for Business Apple just announced its latest tablet. Here, we break down what to consider before you buy.
By Amy Gahran
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.
At an event today in San Jose, Calif., tech giant Apple launched its widely anticipated iPad Mini.
In terms of other tablets, the iPad Mini's main competitors in the small tablet market are Google's Nexus 7, the smaller Samsung Galaxy Tab models and Amazon's Kindle Fire HD. But the Kindle Fire is primarily a consumer media device, so it might not be ideal for most business users.
Is this smaller tablet a good choice for small business owners? That depends on how and where you'd like to use it. Here's a look at some of the iPad Mini's pros and cons:
Pro: Fast functionality
The iPad Mini has the reasonably fast Apple A5 dual-core processor -- the same chip that was in the iPhone 4S. It comes with up to 64 GB of memory and a high-resolution display, but not a Retina display. It has powerful front- and rear-facing cameras. Prices start at $329 for the 16GB Wi-Fi only model.
Con: 4G costs extra
If you need LTE network access, the 16GB iPad Mini costs $459. Plus you'd be paying for a data plan every month.
If you don't absolutely need LTE connectivity or a lot of memory on a small tablet, the Galaxy Tab and Nexus 7 Wi-Fi only models are worth consideration for business use. They're both slightly bulkier than the iPad Mini, and their specs aren't quite as high-end, but they do cost considerably less, starting at $199 (8GB).

Pro: Portability
As with any smaller tablet, you can hold it in one hand. The iPad Mini display measures 7.9 inches diagonally, and the entire device is 7.87 inches tall by 5.3 inches wide by a slim 0.28 inches thick. It weighs 0.68 pounds -- less than half the weight of the current iPad model.
It is small enough to fit easily into a pocket or purse. This enhanced portability could make it worthwhile for some people to pay extra for an LTE-capable model and data plan.
Con: Seven inches might be awkward for some users
The iPad Mini is just a bit too large to comfortably hold and also type on it with your thumb using just one hand, as many people do with smartphones.
Related: 5 Things to Consider Before Buying a Smartphone or Tablet
Pro: A decent display
The iPad Mini screen size is about 18 percent smaller than a standard iPad display but its aspect ratio -- the proportions between its width and height -- is the same for both iPad models. That's important, since it means apps that are customized for the standard iPad should display and function reasonably well on the iPad mini.
Of course, the vast majority of iOS apps do not yet offer an iPad-optimized version. But on the iPad mini, it's possible that iPhone apps might feel more comfortable -- giving iOS users the best of both worlds.
Will you consider using Apple's new iPad Mini for business? Let us know why or why not in the comments below.

Review Purpose
In order for a new container Layered Image to be added to Fedora, the container layered image must first undertake a formal review much like the RPM Package Review process.
The purpose of this formal review is to try to ensure that the container layered image meets the quality control requirements for Fedora.
Reviews are currently done for totally new container layered images, container layered image renames, old container layered images that were once deprecated returning to the collection, and containers merged from the old Fedora image repository.
Container Layered Images are not required to share a 1:1 relationship with RPM Packages but can instead deliver multiple RPM Packages (such as dependencies) in order to distribute a fully functional container. However naming of the container should be based on the main service or software it aims to deliver.
There are two roles in the review process, that of the contributor and that of the reviewer. In this document, we'll present both perspectives.
A Contributor is defined as someone who wants to submit (and maintain) a new Container Layered Image in Fedora. To become a contributor, you must follow the detailed instructions to Joining the Package Maintainers.
As a Contributor, you should only be creating containers out of pre-existing software in the Fedora RPM repositories which adheres to the Guidelines.
Put your Dockerfile, accompanying configuration files, and control scripts somewhere on the Internet where it can be directly downloaded (just HTTP(s), no registration pages or special download methods, please). If you have no access at all and would like space, please visit The sponsors ticket system, log in, and file a ticket with component "Initial package hosting request". You will be given access to Fedorapeople.
Fill out a request for review in bugzilla. Summary field needs to be in format of
Container Review Request:..
. If the:
is omitted the fedpkg tool's request-repo will error out. -
If you do not have any package or container layered image already in Fedora, this means you need a sponsor and to add FE-NEEDSPONSOR (Bugzilla id:177841) to the bugs being blocked by your review request. For more information read the How to Get Sponsored into the Packager Group page.
Wait for someone to review your Dockerfile! At this point in the process, the '''fedora-review flag''' is blank, meaning that no reviewer is assigned.
If nobody comments on your review request, you might want to mail to a mailing list (email@example.com) asking for a "review swap". This is an offer to do a review of someone else's Dockerfile in exchange for them reviewing your Dockerfile. This is usually one-for-one, or can be some other private arrangement depending on the difficulty of the respective packages.
There may be comments from people that are not formally reviewing the package, they may add NotReady to the Whiteboard field, indication that the review request is not yet ready, because of some issues they report. After you have addressed them, please post the URLs to the updated Dockerfile and associated files and remove it from the Whiteboard. It is expected that you will respond to commentary, including updating your submission to address it; if you do not, your ticket will be closed.
A reviewer takes on the task of reviewing your package. They will set the '''fedora-review flag''' to '''?'''
The reviewer will review your Dockerfile. You should fix any blockers that the reviewer identifies. Once the reviewer is happy with the package, the '''fedora-review''' flag will be set to '''+''', indicating that the package has passed review.
At this point, you need to make an SCM admin request for your newly approved Layered Image. If you have not yet been sponsored, you will not be able to progress past this point. (You will need to make sure to request the container namespace in src.fedorproject.org)
Checkout the package using "fedpkg clone container/<container-name>" do a final check of Dockerfile, etc.
When this is complete, you can add relevant container files into the SCM. Required files should be:
help.md file
Request a build by running "fedpkg container-build".
Repeat the process for other branches you may have requested. (NOTE: The FROM line in the Dockerfile for each branch will need to reflect which Fedora release distgit branch it is in or else the builds will collide in koji)
You should make sure the review ticket is closed. You are welcome to close it once the Container Layered Image has been built on the requested branches, or if you built for one of the Fedora release branches you can ask Bodhi to close the ticket for you when it completes the process. If you close the ticket yourself, use '''NEXTRELEASE''' as the resolution.
You do not need to go through the review process again for subsequent Container Layered Image changes for this Layered Image.
The Reviewer is the person who chooses to review a package.
Other people are encouraged to comment on the review request as well. Especially people searching for sponsorship should comment other review requests to show, that they know the Container Guidelines.
The Reviewer can be any Fedora account holder who is a member of the packager group. (If the Contributor is not yet sponsored, the review can still proceed to completion but they will need to find a sponsor at some point.)
Search for a review request that needs a reviewer: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=Container%20Review&list_id=9912775&product=Fedora%20Container%20Images
If you notice some issues that need to be solved before you want to start a formal review, add these issues in a comment and set the Whiteboard of the bug to contain NotReady. This helps other possible reviewers to notice that the review request is not yet ready for further review action.
if you want to formally review the Dockerfile, set the '''fedora-review''' flag to '''?''' and assign the bug to yourself.
If you want to step back from the review for any reason, reset the fedora-review flag to be blank '''and''' reassign the bug to the default owner of the component, which is '''firstname.lastname@example.com'''
Review the package
Go through the MUST items listed in Container Guidelines.
Go through the SHOULD items in Container Guidelines.
Include the text of your review in a comment in the ticket. For easy readability, simply use a regular comment instead of an attachment.
Take one of the following actions:
'''ACCEPT''' - If the container layered image is good, set the '''fedora-review''' flag to '''+'''
If the Reviewer is also acting as Sponsor for the Contributor, then this is the time to sponsor the Contributor.
'''FAIL, LEGAL''' - If the container layered image is legally risky for whatever reason (known patent or copyright infringement, trademark concerns) close the bug WONTFIX and leave an appropriate comment (i.e. we don't ship mp3). Set the '''fedora-review''' flag to '''-''', and have the review ticket block FE-Legal.
'''FAIL, OTHER''' - If the container layered image is just way off or unsuitable for some other reason, and there is no simple fix, then close the bug WONTFIX and leave an appropriate comment (i.e. we don't package pornography for redistribution, sorry. Or, this isn't a specfile, it's a McDonald's menu, sorry.) Set the '''fedora-review''' flag to '''-'''.
'''NEEDSWORK''' - Anything that isn't explicitly failed should be left open while the submitter and reviewer work together to fix any potential issues. Mark the bug as NEEDINFO while waiting for the reviewer to respond to improvement requests; this makes it easier for reviewers to find open reviews which require their input.
Once a package is flagged as '''fedora-review +''' (or '''-'''), the Reviewer's job is done although they may be called upon to assist the Contributor with the import/build/update process and to ensure that the Contributor closes the ticket out when the process is complete.

Imagine you're eight and you're given a dog. The first thing your parents say is that you need to take care of him: feed him, play with him in the backyard, and train him so that he doesn't do bad things in the house. You and the new dog quickly become "the dog and his master." That well-worn phrase can tell us something about our human instincts. Once something is put under our care, often our kneejerk reaction to "taking care of it" is to rule it or conquer it.
It's no different with space. And the event of the final shuttle launch of Atlantis is yet another example of our human enthusiasm for conquering what's before us. This launch, bittersweet as it was, marks the end of one program of curiosity and adventure, as well as the beginning of a new era of space exploration. This new era could include the privatization of programs to continue doing what shuttles like Atlantis have been doing, like replenishing supplies on the International Space Station, as well as take on other new space ventures. There will be debate about the next steps, I'm sure, just as there has always been debate about the space programs themselves.
But between the arguments concerning the pros and cons of space exploration, I believe it's safe to say that there is general agreement that space has always given us that sense of grandeur and awe which inspires us to explore and conquer. I think it's also fair to say that our zeal for exploration of creation is an impulse given by God, and one that's directly in line with being created in the image of the Divine. Joan Vernikos, a member of the Space Studies Board of the National Academy and former director of NASA's Life Sciences Division, comes close to this truth in her answer to Stephen J. Dubner, author, journalist and blogger, about the worth of space exploration:
Why explore? Asked why he kept trying to climb Everest, English mountaineer George Mallory reputedly replied, "Because it was there." Exploration is intrinsic to our nature. It is the contest between man and nature mixed with the primal desire to conquer. It fuels curiosity, inspiration and creativity.
This desire to conquer, like all of our tendencies, is tainted with sin, but it has its origins in the characteristics of God. We know historically that the urge to conquer has been coupled with other horrors which we hope we will not repeat as we venture into space. And we also know that God commanded his people to conquer other peoples and also to "fill the earth and subdue it" (Gen.1:28, NIV), which can perhaps be translated into "conquer it."
Which side of this "primal desire" will lead us into space? We've made great strides in our ability to conquer; case in point, the space shuttle Atlantis. But like any great power, it comes with great responsibility, and for Christians, our responsibility is wrapped up in God's creation, which extends all the way out to the infinity of the cosmos. What's to be done with it? The coverage of Atlantis has brought lots of ideas concerning this back into the news. We already hear about space property law and space tourism offering "unbeatable views." There may be interesting and important implications here for the possibility of entrepreneurial growth and encouragement through private companies picking up from where NASA is leaving its retired space shuttles, things that might be explored in another blog post.
In a piece a few years ago, Jordan Ballor mentioned the emerging ideas about property ownership in space and how private companies would like to offer space as a tourist attraction, and what the real purpose of space might be. Speaking of the views of the sixteenth-century reformer Philip Melanchthon, Ballor writes:
Even if Melanchthon's views were founded on assumptions that subsequent advances in astronomy have disproved, his theological vision is a salient reminder that every part of the created cosmos fills a specific purpose within God's created order. While we may be uncomfortable with Melanchthon's belief that "the stars were created by God to tell men what God intended," we should acknowledge that there are created purposes for the heavenly bodies and seek to understand them.
When we discuss "stewardship of the cosmos," as Jordan Ballor called it, we must ask whether conquering and stewardship compatible. Valid questions like this arise when we are faced with questions concerning the private ownership of space and the possibility of colonizing other planets. I have no hard and fast answers, except that for Christians, perhaps "conquering" isn't the best characterization of what we're doing in space. Our God-given tendencies towards adventure and understanding are compatible with his love of beauty, creativity, and complexity. But where does conquest fit?
Another writer recently posted that maybe the best way to think about it to think of space exploration as worship. Josh Larson discusses how that sense of awe we share when we see shuttles launch into space and see photos from the International Space station of galaxies and stars can be akin to worship. Maybe we can think about coupling them all together: conquering, being a steward, and worshiping, in order to think about how best to approach the discovery and development of the final frontier.

Not to mention, it was a bumper year for excellent boxes at our house. My sister, alone, sent three boxes, one inside another, thanks to some confusion with the shipping guy. The children snatched those immediately...
...claiming to be making some sort of snowman disguise.
I have yet to see the finished product, but the project has provided quite a few hours of engrossing entertainment for them all.
I've been busy myself, taking down the tree, and boxing up the Christmas decorations. But, I couldn't resist taking a few hours to make use of the children's scraps, along with a few smaller boxes...
...to try out a 3d dinosaur puzzle template I spotted over at instructables.com.
The template is actually for a 6 foot, wooden, dinosaur puzzle. I printed it half-sized to make allowance for the amount of cardboard, and floor space I had to use.
Wood would probably be more stable. The boys helped me sure up some of the weak, bendy spots on our dinosaur's legs, and spine with craft sticks and duct tape, and we were able to get it to stand - if not very well.
As for the puzzle itself, it was very much like putting together one of those little boxed sets, only without all the splinters, broken pieces, and sanding. And, the large size made it a lot of fun to pose and play around.
So, what did you do for Boxing Day?

The disgrace of David Petraeus has ended more than a great military career. It is also the symbolic end of a major chapter in American security strategy. The fall of the former Iraq and Afghanistan commander adds a tawdry exclamation point to the decline of counterinsurgency, the military theory for which Petraeus offered a heroic public face.
Flash back to the mid-2000s. The Iraq war was an unmitigated disaster, with no apparent hope in sight. Confronted with a potent insurgency, the occupying U.S. forces often fought back with a brute force that backfired, further alienating a hostile population. Along came the Princeton-educated Petraeus, preaching the gospel of counterinsurgency. Defeating an indigenous resistance, the thinking went, required a unique approach to warfare. To oversimplify, it was less about killing the enemy than winning over and protecting the local population; less about guns and bombs than about hearts and minds. That meant forging personal relationships, training local security forces and investing in expensive development projects. In short, it meant nation building. It was often described as the Petraeus Doctrine.
As Iraq began to stabilize in 2007 and '08, counterinsurgency got much of the credit. Soon the theory caught fire in Washington: think tanks hired and the media spotlighted some of the doctrine's many well-educated (and combat-tested) proponents. The U.S. military developed more counterinsurgency training programs for its troops, offering tips on things like making nice with village elders and knowing when to let the enemy escape rather than risk high civilian combat casualties. This was a form of warfare that even many liberals (perhaps misguidedly) saw as kinder and gentler enough than the usual shock and awe to tolerate.
Petraeus and the counterinsurgency he waged as George W. Bush's top general in Iraq probably get too much credit for turning around that war. Other factors, including the way disgusted Sunni sheiks in Iraq's Anbar province turned against al-Qaeda fighters, were at least as important. But plenty of people, including military and political leaders in Washington, wanted to believe that what Petraeus had done for Iraq could also be done in Afghanistan. Soon after Barack Obama took office, his commander there, General Stanley McChrystal, devised an ambitious counterinsurgency strategy for the country. The White House seemed to accept the idea. Later that year, Obama sent 30,000 more troops to the country — fewer than what McChrystal had requested, but perhaps close enough. When Obama dispatched Petraeus to replace McChrystal in 2010 after the latter's firing, some people wondered if the Petraeus Doctrine might salvage another wrenching conflict.
It wasn't to be. The final chapter of the Afghanistan war has yet to be written, but the U.S. seems to have run out of patience — both with that war and with the expensive and grinding work of counterinsurgency. In the 2012 election, Mitt Romney agreed with Obama that the U.S. should aspire to be out of the country by 2014. A few weeks ago, the New York Times published a long editorial calling for an even faster end to the war and warning against more such interventions. ("America's global interests suffer when it is mired in unwinnable wars in distant regions," the Times wrote.) In his third debate with Romney, Obama delivered a memorable sound bite that seemed to complete Washington's abandonment of counterinsurgency: "What I think the American people recognize is that after a decade of war, it's time to do some nation building here at home."
Even before he was sworn in as CIA director in September 2011, Petraeus was bending the rules of his own doctrine in Afghanistan. He reversed McChrystal's counterinsurgency-inspired limits on air strikes, which can cause heavy civilian casualties, and bombed the hell out of the Taliban. He also oversaw a steep increase in Special Forces raids and armed drone strikes. Petraeus brought that attitude to the CIA, fighting to expand the spy agency's drone fleet so that it can more easily kill suspected terrorists from Pakistan to Yemen to North Africa.
Those sort of targeted assassinations aren't quite the opposite of counterinsurgency. (That would be carpet bombing.) But they fly in the face of the doctrine in multiple ways. Drone strikes — which often kill unlucky civilians — enrage local populations in countries like Pakistan and Yemen and risk "damaging and counterproductive" effects for U.S. interests. At least one recent would-be terrorist who plotted to attack the U.S. said he was motivated by drone attacks in Pakistan. Counterinsurgency requires huge numbers of troops to protect and build relationships with local populations. Drone-based counterterrorism strategy requires few if any boots on the ground. Death is rained down anonymously, usually with no explanation or apology for collateral damage.
This is the new American strategy. Hearts and minds have been replaced by drones and SEALs. Working a tribal council is a less valuable skill than piloting a Predator. By the end of his career — in a country exhausted by war and slashing its budget — Petraeus had embraced that shift. He had lowered his profile too far to become the drone war's public face. But to those watching closely, the Petraeus Doctrine had morphed into something different. Counterinsurgency was finished. Much like the general's career.

The Ultimate Caesar Recipe: How to Make Canada's Cocktail
Invented in Alberta, the Caesar is arguably one of Canada's most patriotic drinks. You can certainly try to order it outside of the country, but it's rare that the bartender is able to truly capture this Canadian concoction. Why the rest of the world fears Clamato juice, Worcestershire sauce, and horseradish, we may never know, but one thing is for sure, the Bloody Mary doesn't come anywhere close to as good – no matter how many slices of pizza it's garnished with.
And so, in honour of Canada Day and the imminent hangovers many of you face, we present the ultimate Caesar recipe. Drink up, proud Canadians, drink up.
- Ice
- Vodka
- Worcestershire sauce
- Horseradish
- Pepper
- Hot sauce
- Pickle juice (optional)
- A pickle (optional)
- Celery salt
- Clamato
- Garnish of your choice - most common are celery stalks and limes (optional)
Step 1: Rim your glass with celery salt.
Step 2: Add ice to you glass (we usually put in 4-6 cubes, depending on their size and the size of the glass).
Step 3: Pour a shot (or two, if you're feeling bold) of vodka over the ice.
Step 4: Add several shakes of Worcestershire sauce. We're talking 5-8 shakes; you want the colour of the beverage to be a nice, murky brown. (There's no such thing as too much Worcestershire sauce, in our opinion).
Step 5: Add a bit of hot sauce (use your discretion on this; make it as spicy as you can handle).
Step 6: Add a forkful of horseradish.
Step 7: Add a dash of pepper (two or three twists of your mill).
Step 8: Stir.
Step 9: Add your pickle juice (approximately a shot, depending on how much you like pickles).
Step 10: Stir again.
Step 11: Fill the glass halfway with Clamato juice
Step 12: Add your pickle.
Step 13: Stir again.
Step 14: Fill the rest of the glass with Clamato.
Step 15: Stir again (no, really – it's important to get all those flavours mixed together!) and garnish it if you'd like.

Probate refers to the court proceedings that conclude all the legal and financial matters of the deceased. The probate court acts as a neutral forum in which to settle any disputes that may arise over the estate. This isn't always as simple as it sounds. The probate process can be expensive and time-consuming, and it is completely public. Many people would prefer to avoid it, if possible. What Is Probate? • Probate can be expensive. Costs vary depending on the state in which probate is carried out, and attorney fees could add to the cost. • Probate often takes a few months to a year or more. And the more complex your estate (will, assets, and debts), the longer it could take. Your beneficiaries may have to wait until probate is concluded to receive the bulk of their inheritance. • In most states, the proceedings of the probate courts are a matter of public record. Unless you take specific steps to safeguard your privacy, almost anyone can go to the county courthouse after your death and find out the value of your estate, as well as how much you owed and to whom.

Rather than traveling to Europe for the weekend, we brought European style and comfort to us. Situated at 4,118 feet, Old Edwards Inn sits in the Western North Carolina Mountains with its welcoming ambiance of relaxed luxury. Consistently voted a top travel destination, this meandering mountain hotel graces the rolling hills in the charming town of Highlands, NC. The town offers breathtaking vistas and waterfalls in abundance, while the hotel provides accommodations ranging from spacious guestrooms to spa suites, and cottage lodging, a world-class spa, locally-inspired cuisine, and a top-notch fitness center. It's an ideal location for weddings, corporate events, and family and romantic getaways.
Comfortable yet luxurious surroundings awaited us at Old Edwards Inn. Our room featured a plasma television, dual-line telephones, wireless internet, and an in-room safe. European bedding and fine Italian linens blanketed us and plush robes and slippers, a rainfall shower, heated-tile floors, and towel racks spread the warmth throughout the room. Our private patio opened up to captivating views and thoughtful touches including champagne arrival, evening turn-down, room service, and a 24-hour Butler's pantry with Dove Bars and refreshments completed the welcome home feel.
Voted #1 Hotel Spa in North America by Condé Nast Traveler's readers in 2010, The Spa at Old Edwards Inn is superb.The minute I entered the building, I felt relaxed and at ease. Nestled among welcoming architectural elements of fine wood and local stone, The Spa invited me to a rejuvenating facial and a therapeutic environment. My facial was performed by a highly-trained therapist in a private treatment room. Using only the finest organic ingredients, I enjoyed a deep cleanse, masque, and deeply relaxing facial massage created specifically for my skin needs. Then, I melted into luxury as the therapist treated my hands, arms, and neck with a soothing massage. The hour was gone in a blink and I emerged stress-free, hydrated, and rejuvenated.
The restaurants at Old Edwards Inn offer the freshest and most innovative cuisine in the North Carolina Mountains. We reveled in a culinary experience at the AAA Four-Diamond Awarded Madison's restaurant on Saturday night.The award-winning cuisine of Chef Johannes Klapdohr uses sustainable ingredients that bring out the most abundant flavors nature has to offer. Trying Soft Poached Quail Eggs, Seared Diver Scallops, Sage Roasted Carolina Pheasant, Cast Iron Seared Pork Chop, and Truffled Macaroni was like eating for the first time. The bursts of flavor made even simple ingredients like carrots taste like something new altogether.
After such an extensive dining awakening, the Fitness Center became a necessity. Old Edwards Inn features an on-site fitness center with state-of-the-art equipment. Although I only tested the elliptical cycle and the exercise bike, the options were endless. With a gym like that at my fingertips, I might not mind such elaborate dining experiences more often.

Originally Published on OpEdNews
October 17, 2008
The truth about 9/11 continues to emerge. War-crimes charges are presently being prepared against President Bush by an eminent legal steering committee (https://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article21022.htm).
While not initially on 9/11, it is just a question of time before the inquiry takes that subject in as well. And, when it does, the whole scenario that has represented Muslims as terrorists will collapse as well.
I am not a Muslim, but a Jew. Supposedly, I should somehow be antipathetic to Muslims. Supposedly too, by merely being a Jew I should somehow be a "Zionist neocon," a militarist, etc.
I am in fact nothing of the sort. Neither are millions of my fellow Jews – any more than "Muslims" are terrorists.
In this election year, when the American public is as open and focussed as it will ever be, I consider it the right time to reissue this article. Its intent is to bring to the attention of the American people and the world the fact that the "secret state" has waged a campaign to paint Muslims as the "enemy within" when "Muslims" had nothing to do with 9/11.
Yes, a small number of Muslims worked as paid participants in the plot (Mohhamed Atta, for instance, and officials of the Pakistani ISI); yes, Al-Qaida was a CIA creation and played its part in the drama.
But 9/11 itself was solely the creation of the Bush administration and unknown accomplices in the CIA, FBI, military, other government agencies, and operatives, I believe, from other governments (including Mossad).
If I were to write this article today, I would change some of the factual statements in it. For instance, I now believe that an A-3 Skywarrior drone hit the Pentagon. But these alterations do not affect the main message here, which is that the world owes Muslims an apology.
People of America, it is time to ask the forgiveness of Muslims of America for years of stereotyping and mistreatment. It is time to realize that there was no "terrorist conspiracy" in 2001 (whether we have created one since then by our own actions is a different question). It is time to see that we were all stampeded and fooled. All the terror alerts, heightened security, and loss of civil rights are part of a drama to keep us hoodwinked and compliant. It has nothing to do with Muslims or "terrorism."
Let me be the first to apologize to Muslims of America, Canada, Britain, and the rest of the world, for buying into the false accusations that they were in any way implicated in the events of 9/11. They were not. I ask your forgiveness.
I pray that we may all come together in love and understanding and create a new and united future, free from the same folly of stereotyping any group or people.
I also pray for the day when the example of the global elite, military-industrial complex, or secret state, which committed the mass murders and high treason of 9/11 and numerous other evil acts, will be rejected by us all and a normal, freedom-loving life returned to on this planet.
A growing consensus of Americans (and, in my case, Canadians) believe that 9/11 was a "false flag" operation carried out by the Bush administration and their agents in the American military and intelligence communities. (1)
According to people who have studied the situation, 9/11 was not caused by 19 Middle-Eastern hijackers with boxcutters; it was an inside job like the Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964 and the bombing of the U.S.S. Liberty in 1967. (2)The conspiracy seems to have been aimed at frightening the American people into agreeing to attacks on Afghanistan, Iraq, and Iran. The aim appears to be to capture Middle-East oil and establish American hegemony before the American economy itself collapsed from debt and the greenback fell as the world's premier currency [As they both are now. SB]. (3)
According to Michael Meacher, former British cabinet minister, the administration had been negotiating with the Taliban for a pipeline right-of-way through Afghanistan. They had offered a carpet of gold or a carpet of bombs and the Taliban refused the gold. (4) Some say that the plans for the invasion of Afghanistan were already in place before 9/11; that the troops were already positioned. They allege that, prior to 9/11, George Bush had the necessary papers to go to war ready for signing on his desk. (5)
In my view, a view which is not shared by all others in the 9/11 Truth Movement, the North and South Towers were not hit by passenger planes, but by remote-controlled drones. These allegations explain the pod the proponents of this view point to on the belly of the aircraft that hit Tower 2, the testimony of an eyewitness that the plane that hit Tower 2 had no passenger windows and was not a passenger jet, and the tight flight manouevres that would have rendered a pilot unconscious and would have been overridden by the plane's onboard computer. (6)
The people I have found convincing point out that all the aircraft involved in 9/11 were followed from the first indications of abnormality by air traffic controllers, but that neither NORAD nor the Pentagon responded to the emergencies. Certainly the FAA knew by 8:30 a.m. on Sept. 11 that an emergency was playing out, a time well before the first crash. This time allowance would have been sufficient for NORAD to have launched interceptors and have brought down the "airliners." (7)
Again, the people I have found convincing argue that the North and South Towers, as well as World Trade Center Building 7, were brought down by thousands of thermate cutter charges. This explanation accounts for the explosive auras bursting outwards as they collapsed and the demolition "squibs" observable in the news coverage. The fact that the buildings were brought down by controlled demolition is also inferable from the time it took the buildings to collapse (around 8 seconds), and corroborated by reputable architects, engineers, emergency responders, and demolitions experts. (8)
To bring a building down by controlled demolition takes extensive planning over days, if not weeks, moving the date of preparation well back before 9/11. Nineteen Middle-Eastern hijackers with boxcutters could not possibly have engaged in the extensive planning required or have installed thousands of explosives in the three WTC buildings. (9)
According to the view I hold with, the Pentagon was hit by a guided missile, as Donald Rumsfeld himself affirmed in a subsequent magazine interview. (10) Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski worked at the Pentagon and went outside on 9/11 to look at the damage. What she saw shocked her. There was no wreckage on the scene (wings, tail, engines, seats, luggage, bodies). There was an entry hole only 20 feet wide. No adjacent windows were smashed. The lawn was not damaged or scorched. She thought the scene consistent with a missile attack, but not with an airplane crash. (11) Government involvement would explain why the FBI confiscated all film footage and released only five inconclusive frames from all the footage available. (12)
Hani Hanjour, alleged to have piloted the "aircraft," may have been part of the government's plot insofar as he trained at an American flight school. His instructor said he was incompetent at flying. The instructor could not imagine Hanjour piloting a 757. When one adds to that the fact that the flight data recorder shows a rapid descent and a bank which a passenger jet could hardly have made and then a precision hit on the first floor of the building which military pilots have said they would find difficult, the hypothesis that Hani Hanjour flew whatever hit the Pentagon becomes too improbable to be believed. (13)
As for the rest of the "hijackers," the theory is that some of them were paid money to attend flight school, but that is the extent of their role. Mohammed Atta was paid $100,000 on Sept. 11, the payment being made in Washington through a Pakistani ISI general. On 9/11, Atta entered the United States and was photographed at the airport, following which he took a connecting flight back out of the United States. (14) No Arab names appear on any of the flights' manifests. (15)
The serendipitous survival and discovery of a "hijacker's" passport in excellent condition near Ground Zero after the total destruction of the North and South Towers is too improbable to accept. (16) The lack of credibility of such an event must implicate the agents who put the story forward.
At least six of the "hijackers" were found alive and well after 9/11; one was surprised to see his name in the news. This element of the official story is so important that I shall quote at length the evidence refuting it:
"The New Pearl Harbor reported evidence that at least six of the alleged hijackers are still alive. David Harrison of the Telegraph interviewed two of the men who supposedly died on Flight 93, which crashed in Pennsylvania, one of whom said that he "had never even heard of Pennsylvania," let alone died there. The Associated Press reported that Waleed al-Shehri, supposedly on Flight 11, contacted the U.S. embassy in Morocco about two weeks after 9/11. The 9/11 Commission Report, nevertheless, suggested that al-Shehri was responsible for stabbing one of the flight attendants shortly before Flight 11 crashed into the North Tower." (17)
"Saeed Al-Ghamdi, Mohand Al-Shehri, Abdul Aziz Al-Omari and Salem Al-Hazmi 'are not dead and had nothing to do with the heinous terror attacks in New York and Washington,' the Saudi Arabian embassy told the Orlando Sentinel."
"Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal told the Arabic Press after meeting with President George W. Bush on Sept. 20th [that] "it was proved that five of the names included in the FBI list had nothing to do with what happened." (18)
Some news reports point out that Osama bin Laden stayed in the American military hospital in Dubai and was visited by the local CIA chief in June/July 2001. (19) At that time, he was wanted for the African embassy bombings, but no one attempted to arrest or harm him.
Others point out that, on Sept. 10, 2001, Osama bin Laden was admitted into a Pakistani hospital for his renal condition. He was closely guarded by the Pakistani military, though no explanations were furnished as to why. Surely the U.S. would have been aware of bin Laden's whereabouts on Sept. 11. (20)
Again, one has to notice that the FBI is not actively pursuing bin Laden for 9/11, as their spokesmen have said and as their website wanted poster demonstrates. (21) Last January, the CIA shut down its team dedicated to finding bin Laden. (22)
Why would they do that if bin Laden was the author of the worst crime in U.S. history?
One of the frustrations of investigating events that are being covered up is that the investigator can say what sounds untrue (contradictory, improbable, implausible, etc.), but one cannot say what is true. I therefore have no idea if Osama bin Laden actually played some role in 9/11, but, if he did, increasingly that role comes to resemble a part paid for by the CIA.
Now why do I bring up these events? I do not bring them up because I want you to subscribe to my view of them as what really happened on 9/11. I do not know what really happened. I'm not sure anyone does, with the exception that scientists who have looked at physical remains and others like them can with some assurance say what events happened at the chemical and physical level.
I write this article to say that it does seem clear to me that 9/11 was made in America and made by what appear to be officials at the highest levels of power.
Following these events, these same officials dictated that a policy of rounding up American Muslims, racially-profiling them at airports, and treating the community with suspiciousness should prevail, even though they themselves had caused the catastrophe and not the American Muslim community.
I acknowledge here that I know practically nothing about the American Muslim community. I know very, very little about world Islam. I am not an expert on 9/11 either. It was not my intention to write on any of those themes.
It was my intention to offer my apologies to the American Muslim community for having bought the official story of 9/11 for so long and shared in the suspiciousness towards it.
Looking from the vantage point I do now, I see no grounds for blaming Muslims for 9/11.
It may be that the actions of the American government have created a "war on terror" where none existed as of 2001 – I don't know. Unjust and illegal wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have killed millions of people and made the U.S. many new enemies. But again I do not claim to be an expert on these circumstances.
But I do believe that the "war on terror," along with 9/11 itself, was "made in America." Every time I hear of a terror alert, I do suspect that I am being manipulated.
Recently Vice-President Cheney, CIA Director Gen. Michael Hayden, and other major and minor political figures have hinted that a second 9/11 could be expected. I also think that, should it occur, this event too will be an inside job and will have nothing to do with the American Muslim community. And I feel a need to say that before an event like it occurs.
In my mind, George Bush, Dick Cheney and unknown other shadowy figures whom I cannot name are the real terrorists. They are guilty of mass murder and high treason. And we are complicit through our silence and in accepting as the explanation their false charges against Muslims.

'More Fish… Less Alzheimer's,' Says New Research — Health Check
Researchers have narrowed down the task of warding off Alzheimer's disease into a simple one — eating more fish.
In a new study, 260 people with an average age of 71 were followed to see how much fish they ate and how it was prepared. The results showed those who ate baked or broiled fish on at least a weekly basis were much less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease or mild mental impairment.
"The new study is the first to establish a direct relationship between fish consumption, brain structure, and Alzheimer's risk," said Cyrus Raji, MD, PhD, of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. The benefit is thought to come from the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish, but Dr. Raji added not all fish is healthy. Some contain toxins that could raise the risk of dementia, and fried fish has no benefit for preserving memory at all.
William Thies, PhD, chief medical and scientific officer of the Alzheimer's Association, says Dr. Raji's study supports his group's recommendation to eat a diet rich in cold-water fish — such as halibut, mackerel, salmon, trout and tuna — that contain beneficial omega-3 fatty acids.
Dr. Raji, who presented his findings at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America, summed up the results succinctly: "More fish, more brain, less Alzheimer's."
