Back to the Future to get the Lego treatment, DeLorean set coming mid-2013
A Back to the Future Lego set will be coming in mid-2013. As part of the Lego Cuusoo scheme, which saw the Minecraft set greenlit earlier this year, Team BTTF's fan-based project has been given the thumbs up by the Lego review team and will therefore appear in a one-off product. For now.
"It is with great pleasure we reveal that the next Lego Cuusoo set will be the Back to the Future Time Machine, based upon the project by M. Togami and Sakuretsu," the company said on its blog post.
"The final product is still in development in co-ordination with our licence partner, Universal Partnerships & Licensing. We'll show the final model and you'll be able to order your own copy when it becomes available in mid-2013 (exact dates and pricing to be determined)."

It is also believed that, should the set prove popular, the door is open to release further additions to the Back to the Future line-up.
To have a project reviewed by the Lego Cuusoo team, it needs to accrue 10,000 votes of support on its dedicated page on the portal - something the DeLorean Time Machine managed in April this year.
Other projects looked at by the Lego team as part of its summer review include ones based on games EVE Online and The Legend of Zelda. Sadly, neither passed the final test, with Zelda being turned down because it would have required new moulds being built at the Lego factory - an expensive process for a small project.

Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
Has Russia saved the Assad regime from collapse?
Asad Ziar | 04 Mar 2013 16:15 GMT | Sport
The aim of the Afghanistan Rugby Federation is to support youngsters who participate in sport against a backdrop of violence, conflict and suffering.
The Federation does not make judgments about the war, or about any individual's participation in the war, but simply hopes to encourage young people to do something positive, fun and competitive, in the hope that they will avoid becoming part of the violence and avoid the temptation of drugs.
Sport is a powerful tool to promote peace, tolerance and understanding, bringing people together across boundaries, cultures and religions. Its intrinsic values such as teamwork, fairness, discipline and respect are understood all over the world and can be utilised in the advancement of solidarity and social cohesion.
We aim to encourage these attributes within our young players, and people from around the globe are supporting us in our endeavours. Until recently we did not have supporters from any country but today we can say that there are many people willing to help us and even mobilise others to support us.
We do understand that sporting initiatives alone cannot stop or resolve conflict, but sport gives us an engaging and cost-effective medium for post-conflict relief work and peace building as well as future conflict prevention.
We do have some examples of the positive influence of sport that we can mention here; Japan suffered extensive damage in the second world war. Essential items such as housing and food were scarce and people struggled just to survive. However, even at this time of extreme poverty, sporting activities began to spring up nationwide. It was as if people's eagerness to participate in sport, which had been suppressed during the war, suddenly exploded.
Afghans are not different from Japanese but we were playing sport during the wars and civil unrest too. Afghans always have respect for sport if opportunities are created for them.
Bringing stability
There were many projects and programs implemented by United Nations for bringing stability and peace.
The Disarmament, Demobilisation & Reintegration strategy is one such example. Through this method the UN managed to collect arms but could not mange to bring peace and stability because handing over the arms does not necessarily bring an end to conflict.
I have worked as a program supervisor in one of the UNICEF Demobilization & Reintegration for under-aged soldiers in Afghanistan and I have been to almost all the provinces, districts and even villages of Afghanistan.
One thing I noticed is that there were no social or sport activities designed for the reintegration of the participants, and that is one of the biggest reasons why today we can't see peace.
Since peace building, as a field of study, lends itself to practical approaches that seek to address the underlying sources of violent conflict, it is surprising that despite knowing the value of sport, the role of sport in post-conflict peace-building remains poor, especially in grassroots models.
Sporting initiatives permit encounters in an environment where aggression can be controlled, regulated and transformed, with the aim of fostering reconciliation and respect between opponents.
On 28 November 2012 the UN General Assembly passed its latest Resolution on Sport, reaffirming the use of sport to bring about positive social change. The resolution, entitled "Sport as a means to promote education, health, development and peace", encouraged the use of sport as a vehicle to foster development and strengthen education, prevent disease, empower girls and women, promote the inclusion and well-being of persons with disabilities, and facilitate conflict prevention and peace-building.
But still we have not witnessed any changes in the design of programs implemented by the non-governmental and non-profit organisations in Afghanistan.
There are still provinces in Afghanistan with the population numbering in the millions but they do not have a single sports stadium. The facilities available for Afghan sportsmen and women are nothing compared to a stable country in the rest of the world, but still the ratio of the sportsmen and women is on the rise. It shows the interest of the Afghans that they love to play sports instead of fighting, especially, as we are seeing, the sport of rugby.
Force of change
One of the things I have come to appreciate most about rugby is its resemblance with Buzkashi (goat grubbing by horsemen), football and wrestling. All these three sports are the most popular sports in Afghanistan and some of the horsemen, footballers and wrestlers have already joined our Federation.
We are trying to introduce rugby as a force in bringing about cultural change and democracy in a social situation.
Today we can assure our supporters that we will be able to encourage the popularity of rugby and make it the most played sport in Afghanistan, but only if we get the support of the international community, since, as a new sport in Afghanistan, it is not possible to find sponsors for our events and training clinics inside and outside the capital city.
The cultural situation in Afghanistan must also be kept in mind. We receive calls from girls who want to play rugby and we want to develop a women's rugby team, but of course women in Afghanistan still face discrimination from a cultural and social standpoint.
It will not be entirely groundbreaking if we start a women's rugby team, since we have examples of the Afghan women's cricket team and the women's football team to follow, but soon the world will witness the foundation of our Afghan women's rugby team. Sport allows us to create awareness about the issues of women's participation in sport. Indeed sport works in the same way that art and philosophy work to pave the way for a huge shift in social thinking.
Looking forward
The Afghanistan national rugby squad is preparing itself for the UAE International 7s Tournament which hosted by the UAE Rugby Federation.
The tournament will be played over the weekend of March 15 and 16 at the Dubai Sports City.
The aim of the tournament is to provide developing teams with the opportunity to compete at an international level and aims to cater for teams who do not participate in the HSBC sponsored Asian Sevens Series. The participating Federations will be announced in the next few days.
Our national squad has been selected and has started training for the event. This tournament is the first of its kind for our team, but we expect to do our best. If we manage to get into the top three among the eight teams, this will boost the support from around the world to the development of rugby in Afghanistan.
The players should keep in mind that it is time to raise the name of their war-torn country and make the 30 million Afghans proud of them.

Search Month: December 2008 Search News, In Review
Search Month is an exclusive monthly newsletter for Search Engine Land premium members that recaps stories covered on Search Engine Land over the past month. Below, our 10 most popular stories from December 2008, then a major story for various search topics along with other stories related to those topics covered during December.
Top 10 Most Popular Stories: December 2008
1) Santa Tracker 2008: Google & NORAD Team Up Again – My favorite Christmas activity is tracking Santa's route around the world. Once again, NORAD and Google are making it easy. The NORAD Tracks Santa 2008 site is now up, and a countdown for your iGoogle home page can now be downloaded. Google just blogged the news today. Below, what to expect.
2) 8 Santa Trackers For Christmas Eve 2008, From NORAD Santa To Twitter – It's Christmas Eve, and that means Santa Claus is out doing his run. But where is Santa right now? Thanks to the internet, there's a huge number of ways to get Santa sightings. Below, a summary that covers online video sightings, Santa's phone number (apparently he can talk while driving), email updates, tracking him via your mobile phone and yes, even getting Twitter updates.
3) Tough Love For Microsoft Search – Back in June, I spoke at Microsoft as part of a regular series for those involved with its webmaster tools group and anyone generally interested in search. My talk was called "Tough Love For Microsoft Search," and I covered various reasons why I felt the company has generally failed to make headway in the space. The core premise is that Microsoft as a company isn't succeeding at search because it views search as a task it has to do, rather than one it really wants to do. The article below is an adaptation of that presentation. There's even a movie.
4) Google Search Suggest Get Ads, Links & Answers – Earlier this year, Google Suggest finally made it to the Google home page. The feature suggests queries as you begin typing in the search box. Now Google is testing providing links to web sites, direct answers and even ads that appear within the Google Suggest list.
5) Google Book Search Puts Magazines Online – First Google digitized books, then newspapers, then historic Time-Life photos and now — magazines. Today through Google Book Search, people can search the full-text of millions of articles from more than 10 magazine with hundreds more to come, the company has announced. Eventually, content from the magazines will be available to those doing Google News Archive searches or show up in "regular" Google searches via Universal Search. For now, however, the content lives only within Google Book Search. How do you access the magazines? Ideally, Google wants you to find them in response to a search for anything at Google Book Search. For example, a search for hank aaron catching babe ruth should bring up a listing tagged as "Magazine" that leads to a 1973 Ebony magazine article about Aaron nearing Ruth's home run record (note, search functionality doesn't seem to be live yet but should be enabled shortly).
6) Google Testing Enhanced Listings, "Pagelinks" & Auto-Spelling Correction – Google is testing a number of changes to its search results, including a way for select publishers to enhance their page descriptions, a way for searchers to jump to sub-sections of a web page and automatically correcting misspelled queries, to some degree.
7) Do Search Engines Use Bounce Rate As A Ranking Factor? – Your web site's bounce rate may be a significant factor in your search engine rankings. If the bounce rate on your site is high, you could end up with lower rankings in the search engines. Correspondingly, lower bounce rates may actually offer meaningful ranking boosts. (Don't know what a bounce rate is? Hang on—definitions below.) Don't believe that bounce rate is a serious ranking factor? You should.
8) "You Could Go To Google," Says Yahoo — But Why Not Stay Here? – Yahoo has changed the way they handle a query for a competing search engine. Now, if you search at Yahoo for google, live or ask.com, Yahoo will tell you, "You could go to [Search Engine Name Goes Here]. Or you could stay here and get straight to your answers."
9) Ask.com Plays The Google AdWords Arbitrage Game – Ah, Ask.com. Since I wrote their obituary in March, not much has got me thinking they'll make a comeback. Sure, there was the gimmick of kind of bringing back Jeeves himself. But the spate of "hotels.ask.com" ads I see them running on Google makes me think they're dropping further from being a search engine and more into a search arbitrage play.
10) Yahoo Layoffs Happening Live Online – The Yahoo layoffs are underway, and are happening live online. Blogs, news sites, and social sites like Twitter are filled today with live reports about what's going on inside Yahoo's offices. Here's a rundown of what we've found. Silicon Alley Insider is posting updated comments from the now ex-Yahooers, who are describing the scene at various Yahoo offices around the country.
Search Engine Land News
Search Engine Land's New Look – Search Engine Land turned two years old this month. In that time, our content has blossomed. We run nearly 20 columns on search marketing issues, routinely post multiple brief items per day about breaking search news along with regular long, in-depth analysis or "How To" stories. Our old design didn't serve to present this content well. So today, we present a fresh new face to Search Engine Land. See also:

AOL Debuts Bebo "Social Inbox" – AOL is repositioning or perhaps enhancing Bebo as a kind of dashboard for the internet using the concept of a "social inbox." The Wall Street Journal has coverage of what's at stake for AOL and the challenges facing social media ad revenues. The social inbox idea is about aggregation of content and services (e.g., email) from a range of third parties and partners in one place.
Best of B2B Search Marketing 2009 – Articles and blog postings on B2B search marketing are often hard to find. At Search Engine Land, we're fortunate to have a stable of experts who regularly contribute great content and make the Strictly Business column a success. But during the year, I've found a lot of other great content, too. I chose 30 of my favorite B2B search and internet marketing posts from 2009. To that I added three of my own articles that were especially popular or helpful to people. I know I've missed some great content. If you know of others, please add them via comments. Just as the search landscape has changed greatly in 2009, so has the economic landscape. There are a lot of people hurting out there, many who never dreamed they would be in situation they are now. If you've been blessed this year, be thankful. See also:

Jeff Weiner (Ex-Yahoo) Lands At LinkedIn – TechCrunch is reporting that former Yahoo Network chief Jeff Weiner is taking on the role of interim President at LinkedIn. Weiner left Yahoo this summer and took an executive role at venture capital firms Accel Partners and Greylock Partners. He was one of Yahoo's top executives, overseeing all of the company's consumer-facing products. Just last week, LinkedIn added Dipchand "Deep" Nishar from Google. Weiner's addition at LinkedIn is one of a couple management changes. TechCrunch says founder Reid Hoffman is retaking the CEO job, and current CEO Dan Nye will leave next month. See also:

Google: AdSense
Google Expands AdSense For Domains – Enough Already – The Google AdSense Blog announced they have begun rolling out the AdSense for Domain product to US based publishers and will continue to roll this feature out to all publishers in the future. AdSense for Domains allows publishers to place ads on domains that have not yet been developed yet, also known as parked domains. Google said they would show "ads, links, and search results on the pages, and may add other useful information in the future," on these pages. You have to understand that AdSense for Domains, formerly known as Domain Park, is a product that has always been extremely controversial in the ad space market. Since 2005 and likely before then, Danny Sullivan has called for major reform of the product, because it delivered poor quality traffic sparked huge controversy. Not only that, we have reported lawsuit after lawsuit over the product and even with the reformed opt out feature, it still has resulted in more lawsuits.
Google: AdWords
Court Rules Google Not Liable For Bad Products Sold Through AdWords – Feel like you got defrauded by someone who lured you to their site through an ad on Google? Don't expect that you'll be able to go after Google itself for running the ad. A US federal court ruled that Google wasn't liable in a case involving ringtones, which would also seem applicable to any type of product or service. Court Clears Google In Ringtone Ad Suit from MediaPost covers the case. New Jersey resident Jenna Goddard claimed that she was billed for a ringtone subscription she didn't want, after visiting a site she found through Google's ads and leaving her number with the site.

Google: Blog Search
Google Blog Search: Now With Full-Text Post Indexing – It's been about two months since Google Blog Search was relaunched with a new front page that summarizes stories. I talked with Google more about some of the inner workings at the end of October and finally am getting around to posting this, spurred by one of the planned changes becoming official. Google Blog Search now uses the full-text of posts (in most cases), rather than using whatever was in a blog's feed (which could often be only part of a post).
Google: Business Issues
Google Cancelled Yahoo Search Deal To Avoid "Monopoly" Designation – Fearing a protracted legal battle, damage to its reputation/brand and perhaps even to its stock price, Google abruptly pulled out of the proposed Yahoo paid search deal. It was revealed at the time that the US Justice Department was planning to file an action against the deal. Now in an interview in AmLaw Daily, the attorney spearheading the potential case against Google, Sanford Litvack discusses what happened. See also:

Japanese Lawyers, Professors Try To Block StreetView – Google StreetView has been a controversial offering since its launch, with privacy at the core of both individual and regulatory concerns. It's also enormously practical and useful in many cases. But governments from Canada to Europe have sought to gain privacy concessions from Google in its international rollout. Google has also been sued a couple of times by private parties over alleged trespassing by StreetView vehicles and imagery. Now a group of academics and attorneys in Japan is trying to fight StreetView on privacy grounds as well. See also:

Google Webmaster Help Group: Version 2 – Today, Google relaunched several of their help forums, moving them from Google Groups to a new help-specific platform.

Google: YouTube & Google Video
YouTube Continues To Dominate Growing Video Landscape – Google continues to dominate the online video market in much the same way it dominates search. Google properties set a record in October with more than 100 million video viewers — 99.5 million of whom watched videos on YouTube. Those are some of the numbers issued this afternoon by comScore from its Video Metrix service. Google's video market share represents more than two-thirds of the estimated online video watching audience for the month. As the chart below shows, Fox Interactive and Yahoo ranked second and third, respectively, in audience share. See also:

Chrome Comes Out of Beta with 10 Million Users – As was reported yesterday, Google's browser Chrome is coming out of beta — a mere 100 days after it was introduced. When I commented to Sundar Pichai, Product VP, that this had to be one of the fastest exits from beta for Google in recent memory he explained that "Google has a very traditional approach to our client software products," meaning it accelerates the process of getting them to a general release.

Link Building
Link Smart Or Die In 2009 – The recession is more than just news fodder these days, it's a reality many of us as service providers are feeling. At Alliance-Link we're watching our clients cut back their on and offline advertising expenditures which makes it difficult for us to build custom linking programs. All of our programs use offline elements to drive links and without the advertising budgets, we've had to regroup and seriously rethink our strategies. I've never been one to shrink from a challenge but even this has given me cause to pause. Our situation made me think about a quote I read a short while ago which said: "Perception is strong and sight weak. In strategy it is important to see distant things as if they were close and to take a distanced view of close things." How true and smart! So smart we've taken the quote to heart and decided the key to our linking success in 2009 depends on our ability to look at long-term search trends and incorporate them into our linking mix as a key element now rather than an add-on or after thought later.

Local Search & Maps
Local News Roundup: Google Shuts Down LBRR, G-Maps' Double Coverage, Yelp Updates iPhone App & Yellow Pages – Think of this post as a SearchBiz for Local, Maps & Mobile today; there was enough news to do a bit of a roundup. First up is Google's announcement that it has dramatically expanded ("doubled") the coverage available via StreetView, including many new states such as Maine, West Virginia, North Dakota, and South Dakota.
Local Search Marketing
Importance of Rankings In Local Listings – There are plenty of reasons besides user experience when adding categories to your internet yellow pages (IYP) listings on various sites. This simple step can result in supplying you with great results in Yahoo! Local, Google Local, increased web references, and potential increased rankings in Google web search. See also:

Live Search Adds Malware Warnings To Search Results – MSN's Live Search has announced the addition of malware warnings to their search results pages. In doing so, Live Search joins Google and Yahoo in taking a proactive stance against potentially dangerous sites; Google began adding malware warnings in early 2007. Yahoo added SearchScan alerts in May of this year. The Live Search implementation is different from how the other two search engines show malware warnings. When a potentially harmful page shows up in the Live Search results, users see no warning until they actually try to click on the link. When they do click, a small "pop-up" box appears to the far right of the listing. See also:

Has Microsoft Live Search Detected Malware On Your Site? – Recently, Microsoft Live Search added malware warnings to their search results. If a searcher clicks a result that Microsoft has detected contains malware, a popup warns then not to proceed to the site. As Matt noted yesterday, Google and Yahoo! also provide malware warnings to searchers. How can you find out if Microsoft has flagged your site for malware and how can you let them know you've fixed the problem? As part of this update, Microsoft Live Search also launched an update to their Webmaster Center that added alerts about malware. You can generate a report of all pages on your site that have malware on them, see if you link to any external pages that contain malware, and submit a review request once you've fixed any issues.

Mobile Search
Local Searches Set to Flip to Mobile Phone – Given the continuing growth in the smartphone market, mobile phones are poised to become the first source people turn to when searching for local business information. Until widespread adoption of smartphones occurs, though, there will be a gap that smart businesses will seek to fill. There were some especially telling findings in comScore's presentation, "New Takes on Local Audience Targeting," at the Interactive Local Media 2008 conference hosted last month by the Kelsey Group.

This is particularly true with long-sales-cycle campaigns, high touch lead generation campaigns, and campaigns that are designed to drive phone sales. Often, such campaigns track the cost of a lead or another metric that doesn't necessarily tie them back to actual sales figures to get a sense of true conversions. This poses a problem in that uneven lead quality can lead to poor decisions in bidding, keyword selection, and so on. In this article, I will discuss several ways companies can effectively attribute sales (or close the loop) in lead generation and phone sales campaigns. See also:

Yahoo One-Ups Google With 90 Day Data Retention Policy – Yahoo has announced they will be anonymizing their user log data to 90 days, compared to Google's policy of 9 months. The data policy is not just inclusive of their search data but also their page views, page clicks, ad views and ad clicks. Yahoo does reserve the right to retain data longer than 90 days based on the exceptions for fraud, security and legal obligations. Those exceptions will typically be held for 6-months, but possibly longer based on legal requirements. See also:

Search Marketing Tactics
Who Owns The Search Page? – We have a recurring argument with clients. See if this sounds familiar: Us: You have no search visibility for "keyword" Client: We don't want visibility for "keyword" Us: Why? Client: Because that's not us. We don't use "keyword" to describe ourselves. That's not what we're about. Us: Yes, but that's what the searcher is looking for. They're using "keyword" to express their need. Client: But we don't offer "keyword". We offer an alternative. Us: But they're not searching for the alternative. They're searching for "keyword". You get the idea. If I combined all the time spent in having this circular argument over the past several years, I'd have enough banked to spend a good portion of the next year in some sunny location, preferably with a beach. I realized that central to this argument is the question of ownership of the search results page. This requires a bit of a shift in thinking, so bear with me. See also:

SEO / Natural / Unpaid Search
SEO & The CMO: Why Analytics & Communication Is Crucial To Success – How many times have you heard the question from a key decision-maker: "So, after we do this optimization, what will our rankings be?" The answer is complex, and requires much more than simply "better than it was before" for your reply to be meaningful to the CMO tasked with moving the needle on a billion dollars in sales. Rankings are certainly one tangible way to measure SEO's success, but at Agency.com we are working to move clients away from focusing on rankings and towards focusing on positive results that can be more accurately measured. In today's search environment, placement is completely dynamic and state-dependent. Everyone is looking at different data centers for starters. Add in search history, geotargeted results based on IP and universal search, and then compound that with Google's SearchWiki, and pretty much everyone is going to get measurably different results when looking for the same terms.

Those who have are ahead of the game. If you haven't given the new year much thought, start now. Successful online marketing is about developing the right combination of strategies (thinking) and tactics (doing). In this column, I'm going to focus on a short list of the latter — quick things you can do now to help set the stage for a successful 2009.

Search Engines Release Most Popular Search Trends of 2008 – As 2008 comes to a close, the annual tradition of gathering up the most popular search trends continues. Breaking down billions of search queries into concise Top 10 lists isn't an easy task but among the major search engines. Still, obvious trends emerge nearly every year, and typically revolve around international news stories, major events, celebrity news, gossip and natural disasters. (Quite often, those last few can be grouped together). Natural curiosity about political leaders, well known entertainers and amazing athletes typically fuel the daily buzz on every search engine, but major events like the 2008 Olympics and US Election always add extra fuel to the search frenzy. This year's lists collect the best of the best, and the best of the worst.

Growing up, if my family had taken a vote on the member most likely to end up moving to Israel, I would have come in last – after our dog, Barney, who considered chewing on dried pig's ears life's ultimate pleasure.Indeed, to my mother's horror, when I was a boy I spent more time in my Hebrew school's principal's office for insubordination than in the classroom, and had to be physically forced to attend services on any given Shabbat or holiday, let alone my bar mitzva (which in retrospect, was something of a miracle, on par with Balaam's talking donkey).Furthermore, when my family got together to observe the High Holy Days, I was infamous for staging epic meltdowns in defiance, resulting in me being quarantined in my room until I could bring myself to behave like a quasi-human being, which sometimes just didn't happen.This, of course, doesn't take into account my once relative apathy for Israel, which in my ignorance, I dismissed as little more than a chronic headache inhabited by "difficult" people, portrayed in the media as trouble-making zealots – who, if they were smart, would move away.In short, I was to Jewish tradition and pride what Mike Tyson is to pronouncing the letter S, and Kim Kardashian is to Mensa. (Just kidding, "Iron" Mike. Not so much with you, Kim.) So, clearly, when I made aliya in July 2010, there was enough perplexed headshaking going on in the mishpucha to induce mild whiplash, and possibly a couple fainting spells.MY REFORMATION from a apathetic Jew to a proud Jew, Zionist and Israeli citizen living in the country's capital, is entirely the result of my beloved grandmother, Carola Iserowski Greenspan, a Holocaust survivor, who did something unprecedented: helped me finally connect my heart with my mind.This, in turn, recalibrated and jump-started my soul, which up to that point felt like it was stuck in neutral, languishing in a rat-race-infested purgatory, with an overpriced New York City backdrop.To be sure, just a few years ago, my heart and mind worked in decidedly different directions, and in many ways, were mutually exclusive.In my heart, like most people, I always thought it would be "nice" to dedicate my life to a meaningful cause that inspired me far more than the soulless jobs I worked at ever could, but intellectually considered such a pursuit impractical and foolish.In my mind, activism, while fulfilling, would undoubtedly necessitate a dramatic pay cut, which in turn would preclude me from living "the good life" – which at the time I believed was defined by my fancy apartment, corporate expense account, European vacations and dinner reservations at the best restaurants in Manhattan.Therefore, leaving a relatively lucrative job that I didn't have passion for, but gave me this "good life," to instead listen to my heart and give it all up to live a modest and challenging material existence to improve my soul, felt like a sucker's bet – especially in a culture that prizes wealth and grandeur above all else.It wasn't until I was faced with Carola's delicate mortality several years ago, following a stroke, and her request for me to embrace my Jewish identity and move to Israel to contribute any way I could, that I was forced to reconsider my cynical logic.I simply couldn't say no to the person I respected and loved so profoundly.DESPITE THE initial fear I felt when the time came for me to follow through on my promise to her, and some difficult struggles as a stranger adjusting to a strange land, I have come to realize that she did me the biggest favor of my life.This is because she helped me combine the two most powerful things I know, which I never thought of putting together: My love and admiration for her and her legacy, and my intellectual reverence for the written word.Over two years after immigrating to the country that made my grandmother so happy and proud – and having the privilege to write about the experience in a world-class newspaper – I have never felt more alive and connected to her and the history she desperately wanted me to embrace.All this, with virtually none of the material bells and whistles I once thought defined "the good life" that I was so vacuously and self-defeatingly striving for.And while I still don't keep kosher, don't like to wear yarmulkas unless absolutely necessary, and frequently feel stupid at services fumbling through basic prayers that I never bothered to learn when I was a child, I can say unequivocally that I'm a reformed Jew.I'M REFORMED in the sense that a country and tradition I once thought of as a nuisance are now things I would give my life to honor, protect and support.Initially, this was because Israel became a metaphor for Carola. However, now that I have lived and worked here as a citizen, and fallen in love with its people and culture, I would fight for it even without her – a miracle that dwarfs my bar mitzva.Indeed, when my mom and I have one of our regular conversations over Skype, we both can't help but laugh when rhetorically asking one another what my grandparents would say if they could see me now. Usually the words "pass out" or "shocked" suffice as the most realistic answers.Of course, none of this would have happened without Carola's influence, and what she stood for, which occupies my heart more than any other memory – and taught me that true meaning in life could only be achieved by combining that love with my mind.THIS ROSH Hashana, as I joined one of the two special families that "adopted" me in a country where I initially didn't know a soul, but now feel profoundly connected to on every level, I thought quite a bit about my grandmother, who passed away on March 26 at the age of 90, too afflicted with Alzheimer's disease to fully grasp what I have done in her name.Most importantly, as I reflected on her beautiful life, and the awe-inspiring legacy she left behind, I thanked her for teaching me that the only life worth living – or legacy worth leaving – is one that infuses what I once thought were mutually exclusive entities: the heart and mind.My greatest hope for all of you this New Year is that they come together for you as well, and inspire you in ways you never thought possible.May you all be inscribed in the Book of firstname.lastname@example.com

Jobs contemplated creating own cell network, says colleague
updated 03:25 pm EST, Tue November 15, 2011
Tech would have used Wi-Fi spectrum
Former Apple CEO Steve Jobs initially wanted to create his own wireless network, rather than turn to existing carriers, according to John Stanton. Stanton is the chairman of venture capital outfit Trilogy Partners, and explains that he spent time with Jobs between 2005 and 2007. "He wanted to replace carriers," Stanton said at Monday's Law Seminars International event in Seattle. "He and I spent a lot of time talking about whether synthetically you could create a carrier using Wi-Fi spectrum. That was part of his vision."
Jobs is said to have eventually given up on the idea around 2007. He nevertheless had a large impact on cellular carriers, Stanton suggests. "If I were a carrier, I'd be concerned about the dramatic shift in power that occurred," he claimed yesterday. The statement is a reference to the fact that prior to the iPhone, carriers often had the upper hand, controlling branding and services for devices. Apple, Google, and other companies now sell services where revenue bypasses carriers entirely.

DEFINITION of 'WIR Bank'
A complementary currency system based in Switzerland that serves local businesses. The WIR Bank specifically works with small and medium-sized businesses, and allows these businesses to circulate their inventory through the WIR Bank's bookkeeping system in order to maintain sales volume. It started with only 16 members but has now grown to over 62,000.
BREAKING DOWN 'WIR Bank'
WIR Bank ("wir" means "we" in German) was created in response to the lack of available hard currency in the wake of the stock market crash of 1929. The bank allows inventory to continue to be exchanged even during times in which currency cannot be accessed. Businesses have to be members of the organization in order to participate.

We've all seen the articles and statistics, Elder Abuse is on the rise in America. Elder abuse is not limited to any income bracket or gender. It can happen to anyone and the best way to avoid it is to be informed. If you are an older American you need to educate yourself, if you are the adult child of older parents they need your support and vigilance.
Elder abuse comes in many forms but a broad definition involves the improper use of funds, property or assets belonging to someone over the age of 60. The most common types include credit card fraud, annuity scams, identity theft, abuse of powers of attorney, reverse mortgage scams, telephone and internet phishing scams and the use of undue influence by trusted individuals to swindle seniors out of their property and money.
In the Costco Connection web & print publication this month David Horowitz and his daughter Amanda Horowitz have penned an article on this timely subject. Amanda is the CEO of Fight Back, a consumer advocacy institution started by her father. The article is well worth your time and some of the finer points are listed below. This is not a new subject to our blog and most of these points have been voiced in other posts but we are convinced it is impossible to talk about this subject too much.
Unreported Cases: Elder abuse often goes unreported because of embarrassment or fear that the victim will lose autonomy. The victims may even choose not to report the abuse because they want to protect the guilty party which is often a family member.
Safeguarding a Loved One: In the words of David Horowitz, "Since elder financial abuse is correlated highly with isolation one way you can prevent the possibility of it happening is to make sure an elderly relative has regular social interactions and outings." We should also point out that is a caregiver is a paid relative their needs to be a Caregiver's Agreement in place. This legal contract needs to be as detailed as possible delineating remuneration, duties, hours and spending limits.
Spotting the Signs:
- Changes in spending patterns
- Helping "friends" with their finances
- Tips or extra payments to caregivers or family
- Persons newly added as signees on accounts
- Unexplained changes in professional advisors such as bankers, attorneys or accountants
- Checks made out to "Cash"
- Unexplained disappearance of valuables, cash, medications or personal items
- Large and/or unexplained transfers between accounts
- Unexplained changes to a will or power of attorney
- A caregiver, friend or relative that keeps trying to isolate the senior from others

Call it what you want but I am going for the gusto. I want to make a sensational splash on national TV. I want the world to know what I know. Anyone that tries to stop me is depriving the families of the last possible piece of closure. They are as horrible of a human being as Helen. No Helen is worse. She's trying to run a scam on the families. Argue all you want but polygraphs expose the truth.
Your whiney azzes can't stop this runaway train.

I am a regular who-re too. But I am cheap and I give senior citizen discounts. Business is a little slow right now but I expect it to pick up after Easter.

Pull his thing and LES will wink at you, Hes your puppet
Hell do funny things if you want him too, Hes your puppet
Mmmm. Hes yours to have and to hold Helen, you've got full control of your puppet. Pull that little thing and hell kiss your lips, hes your puppet
Rub your fingers and hell turn you some flips, hes your puppet
Mm, your every wish is his command
All you got to do is stroke with your little hand
Hes your puppet, Hes your puppet Hes just a toy, just a funny boy
That makes you laugh when you're blue
He'll be wonderful, do just what hes told
He'll do anything for you. Hes your puppet, Hes your puppet.
Just pull his ding a ling and hell do anything. Hell sing you a song, Hes your puppet
Make him do right or make him do wrong, hes your puppet.
Mm, make him feel good and hell do anything.
Hes just a puppet and you hold his thing, hes your puppet. Your walking, talking, kissing, loving puppet hes hanging on a string,
Hell do anything, love you 'n' kiss ya at the flick of your wrist.
Hes your puppet.

Remember the day Kathy Coomer admitted knowing me?
Well I am going to have a hundred times more fun with what is coming up. Les don't lie about anything! PS Kathy I wish I would have met you in a better time. I would have never let you get away. You are gourgeous woman.

Helen I recommend marinara sauce for all of those LOLs that you will be eating but perhaps you would perfer to shove them somewhere else.
I pray for you Helen that you spent eterity with the maggots and there is no hell.

Helen, I post under this name because it is not relevant what my real name is. I can tell you this though, If I had a web site of my own I would not be using a 30 year old photo of myself on there. Get my drift?
I've seen your web site. It is about as useful as a Dr. Seuss book. With the exception that the Dr. Seuss book is easier to follow.
You do post on here all the time. Not like this idiot Les, but just the same don't be delusional. I noticed that you skipped over my main point, that you need to stop giving this moron attention.
I am sure you will respond with another childish rant, but keep this in mind. I could easily make a fool out of you, but I am much too late.
Now go back to your site and update that 30 year old photo.
#14647 Mar 24, 2013
Les is wrong.
Helen is wrong.
Dan is wrong .
Tim's family is partially right.
Lets call the following account fiction .
Allegedly.......The killings stopped after Chris Bush was ushered off to Europe with a new identification as was common and easy to accomplish in the days before the internet and even possible now albeit more difficult . French foreign legion did it all the time and still does today , but less frequently . it was necessary coz the fat boy was just not gonna quit . The laws were lax on the continent in those days and he could indulge without repercussions , and so no need to murk anyone else . No harm no foul they concluded . His dad was big time and had his own demons. Apples don't fall far from trees. It snowballed and snowballed and too much was covered up to ever go back . Even now its to tangled a web , a well protected web . The suicide scene was theater .

Les says I WANT THE WORLD TO KNOW WHAT I KNOW.-- SORRY LES, THERE`S NO KNOWN WAY TO REDUCE EVERYONE`S I.Q. TO WHAT YOURS IS. That would be called HAVING LES INTELLIGENCE!!!
#14649 Mar 24, 2013
Jessica Cooper publicly squashed Busch as a suspect and squashed some major aspects of my claims. Ray Anger squashed John as a suspect. I was told by a MSP commander that Dan is a nut job. That he personally investigated Dan's claims. He has met Dan. I have that in writing. I am the only one claiming to be an eye witness. LE claims that today's polygraphs are fail safe. That detect brain waves more than body signals. They have proved thats lies come from a different part of the brain than signals when the person is honest. If you had been through what I have been through you may think extreme behavior is needed to get through to these knuckleheads. As long as this media source does not chicken out the public will learn some dramatic information. The media source and myself both agree we would rather have LE step up to the plate than to publicly embarrass them. That could be playing a part in the slowness of this process.
LE knows who killed these children.
#14650 Mar 24, 2013
My IQ is 136. Helen probably can't break 100 but I think your IQ being difficult to guess is definitely higher than Helen's but lower than mine. Since you brain is damaged I can't know how much it effects your IQ. Your brain damage would probably disqualify you from taking a polygraph. I only know that based on LE statements nothing you have ever claimed regarding crimes can be verified.
#14651 Mar 24, 2013
Damn your good. You got six people to agree that Chris Busch is alive and his fake murder was covered up as a fake suicide. That's the biggest open ended pipe extention I have seen on here yet. That tops John's fake passport. Good entertainment. Now let's get back on topic. ME.
#14652 Mar 24, 2013
Leslie thats because the story is provocative and compelling , it gets the people going . Think bout it for jus a sec . From the perspective of the gov they stopped the killing. They did their job . They weren't going to embarrass one of the barons of the metro area . They weren't going to take down GM with a major scandal . Nevertheless they took care of it in a manner of speaking . The killings stopped . They avoided embarrassment . They stifled opposition . VIctory on all fronts . Chris was expelled , provided a new identity , declared persona non grata and left to his own devices in Europe , where the laws were lax and his compulsions did not necessitate murder . That the fat boy was involved is only half the story . He's been living it up on the continent for decades now .

You seem to know a lot about Busch. Do you know whether his father was a member of the Birmingham High Twelve?

What's kind of interesting is they had Chris' funeral and everything all at the funeral home. When the parents died, they did the funeral home, church, cemetery thing.

Ok, this is probably not PC but I'm just going to put this out there. I am inquiring in relation to the question of cover-up only, and am not implying thus person is a killer, okay? What the heck is known about Robertson, the Lieutenant? His background, such as where grew up, where he lived back then, his parents and other relatives, education, etc....please. I'm working on something and it may be important.
#14656 Mar 25, 2013
Now what you have to go and call me Leslie for?
In the past few hours I have been called a moron, an idiot, a scum bag, a who-re and a mental case.
Your going to turn me into a kind softie gorilla. Grrrrr SNARL.
#14657 Mar 25, 2013
So let me see if I have this right. You claim that I am insane but you are going to report me to the government for not being insane.

diva2000 added a post in a topic Does Anyone Get Upper Back Spasms When Glutened?I had this happen to me really bad this week. I was getting back spasms for 3 days when I thought about taking an allergy pill. Just store brand chloriphenirine maleate, and it started relieving the spasms. I took it every 4 hours, and it got better and better. When I would forget, the back spasms would start up. After about 3 days of the allergy meds, it is getting to the point where I don't get the spasms when I forget a pill. Saved me big time! I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital.

The appearance of carpet beetles varies depending on their stage in life; young larvae resemble millipedes, while adults have dark brown to black shells and have distinct oval shapes. Beetles grow quickly, and as such, move rapidly through different stages of appearance. They shed their shells and skin as they grow, and they change shapes and colors frequently.Know More
Larvae appear like millipedes from birth through the end of the larvae phase. These juveniles have long, round bodies and are red-tinted or light brown in color. Some species have short hairs, and others have distinct tufts of fur growing from their backsides. Adults are dark-brown to black in color, and they have hard outer shells. Some have colored scales with different patterns, and they all have long antennae.Learn more about Beetles
The term "powderpost beetle" describes several small beetles that bore into wood and produce a fine, flour-like powder as a result of their efforts. Beetle larvae damage the wood as they eat through it, making tunnels before they emerge as adults one to five years later.Full Answer >
Beetles are eaten by predators such as wasps, spiders, ants, mice, rats, moles shrews, salamanders, frogs, toads, birds, skunks and other beetles. In order to avoid being eaten, beetles run or hide in a tunnel when they are still larvae. A number of beetles have hard shells and can bite when defending themselves and others release toxic chemicals to discourage predators.Full Answer >
When they are not consuming aphids, lady beetles may prey on another kind of soft-bodied insect that is closely related to aphids. Some lady beetle species feed on fungal spores, while other types of lady beetles eat bean plants and pollen. In massive swarms, lady beetles can cause major damage to crops or agricultural farms.Full Answer >
Christmas beetles live in Australia in both rural grasslands and urban areas. They are called Christmas beetles because they are commonly seen during the Christmas season, which falls in the Australian summer.Full Answer >
