The year is 1945, the end of the Second World War. Two boys set off into the woods of Maine in search of The Great Appalachian Bear, which has not been seen for many years, and is believed by most to be dead. The boys' adventure is fraught with dangers icy rivers, murderous pirates, brambles, catacombs, poisonous snakes. The perfect set-up for an adventure story. Which it is. But Navigating Early is much more than that. It is also a quest for truth, meaning, and self.
The boys, Jack and Early, have each lost something dear to them, leaving them feeling abandoned and untethered. They need to find a way to fill the gaping holes in their hearts. While Early has a missing brother, Jack's mother has recently died, and his father, a navy officer, has distanced himself as he struggles with his own loss and pain. Jack lands at a boys' boarding school in Maine with the only offer of ...

The Chargers are in a desperate need for a left tackle after missing out on the top three left tackles in the draft. According to the UT San Diego's Michael Gehlken, Bryant McKinnie just had a good visit with the Chargers that has now led to dinner.
Told Bryant McKinnie is amidst a "very good" visit. Having dinner with Chargers tonight. Two sides have yet to talk numbers.
— Michael Gehlken (@UTgehlken) May 1, 2013
If committed, McKinnie could be a good one-year stop gap at left tackle; a position that was left wide open after they cut Jared Gaither. That is the issue however, there is a belief in the NFL that McKinnie just doesn't have that commitment to football. He lost his starting role last year because he was out of shape. If he is signed and he can't get his act straight, the Chargers will be in the same spot as last year.

Two Must-Have Menu Items For Your New Deli
If you're becoming a first-time deli owner, one of the most exciting parts of the planning stages is creating your menu and finalizing recipes. Delis are an iconic part of American culture, offering everything from fresh-cut chips to amazing sandwich creations. Meats like corned beef have become a staple of most deli meat cases, and there's little wonder why. Here are a few things you should consider incorporating onto your sandwich board. Grilled Corned Beef Sandwich When you're looking for a unique twist on the classics, consider creating a filling mixture with some shredded corned beef. Combine a cup of the shredded meat with a few tablespoons of mayonnaise, two or three stalks of celery that's been finely chopped and a tablespoon or two of finely minced onion. Stir in a couple of tablespoons of yellow mustard, season the whole thing with a little bit of black pepper and mix everything together really well. You shouldn't need to add salt, because the corned beef will contribute the salt to the mix. Spread about a third of a cup of filling onto a slice of marble rye bread and top it with a slice of Jarlsberg or Swiss cheese. Put a second slice of bread on top and place the sandwich on the buttered flat top grill. You can press it with a foil-wrapped brick if you want to get that crisp, pressed crust, or you can preserve the integrity of the filling by simply grilling both sides to a hearty crunch, which usually only takes a couple of minutes per side. Traditional Reuben Sandwich Every deli needs to have a great Reuben sandwich on the menu. There are a couple of key components to a Reuben sandwich. You need to have good quality sauerkraut. Whether you make it yourself or you stock it from your supplier, it's essential. Then, you also need to have the right dressing for the sandwich. Reuben dressing is unique, and without it, the sandwich may be a corned beef sandwich, but it's just not a Reuben. To make the sauce, combine equal parts mayonnaise and sweet pickle relish with a half-part of ketchup. Mix it well and then season it with salt and pepper to taste. That makes the spread for the sandwich. Once you have that, you can start building the Reuben. You need to have rye bread and Swiss cheese along with your sliced corned beef and sauerkraut. Put the dressing on each slice of bread. Add the corned beef to one slice and the Swiss cheese to the other, then top the meat with sauerkraut and put the whole thing together. Toast it on a hot, buttered griddle until the bread is crisp and golden and the cheese is melting. Offering these two deli treats will give you a great foundation to build your menu around. Familiar treats like these are a great way to establish your new deli as a destination. If you're looking to enjoy some great deli food, check out places like Deer Park...read more
3 Must Try Chicken Dishes From Around The World
There's something to be said about chicken. It's lean, healthy, and most of all, it tastes great! Cuisines from all around the world use chicken as a primary ingredient in many dishes, with many of them utilizing the freshest in chicken supplies. Head to a international restaurant or try your own hand at making one of these delicious chicken dishes from across the globe. Laos: Ping Gai Chicken This dish, which is also served in the northernmost region of Thailand known as Isaan, is a street vendor's delight. It is chicken which has been flattened, grilled, rolled with sticky rice, and then served on a skewer. Ping gai chicken is almost always served with a refreshing – yet oddly salty – papaya salad known as som tam. The chicken is often times marinated with oyster sauce, fish sauce, and a couple of tablespoons of lime juice, giving it a unique kick and a distinctly fish-like aftertaste. Portugal: Cozido a Portuguesa You will be hard pressed to find a stew that is heartier and more filling than this delicious ensemble. Chicken is merely the crown on top of a dish that is stuffed to the gills with meat. Using a chicken broth as its base, this stew adds in a series of vegetables, including carrots and cabbage, before throwing in a veritable boatload of meats into the mix. Chicken, beef, and pork are all used to great effect in this meat lover's stew, and there are also variations that make great use of blood sausage. Ethiopia: Doro Wat Although Ethiopia is famed for its vegetarian and vegan cuisine, it is also host to a number of amazing chicken dishes. Doro wat is perhaps the most famous of these dishes. This dish is also famed for its difficulty to prepare correctly. Like many Ethiopian dishes, it is served atop of a light, fluffy bread known as injera. The chicken itself is rubbed with a number of different herbs and spices, including cumin, berbere, salt, and garlic. It is then marinated in butter. The dish is known for a complex, dry taste that is complimented by a number of traditional sides and sauces that are served alongside the dish. Chicken dishes are not merely the sole provenance of America. Expand your palate and try one of the aforementioned dishes at a local international restaurant, or, if you fancy yourself an amateur chef, get to cooking! For more information on different types of chicken, contact professionals like Sugar Valley...read more
The Differences Between Pastrami And Corned Beef
Sometimes meat can be so recognizable and yet completely mystifying all at once. You may have heard the name often and even eaten pastrami since you were a kid, but you might not have a single clue what it consists of (or the difference between pastrami and corned beef). Both appear similar at first, and their taste is quite alike as well. It can be difficult to tell the difference because they both appear frequently on sandwiches and a variety of cafe concoctions. Here's the difference: Cuts Both are made from beef, but they are made from different cuts. Corned beef is made from brisket. Pastrami can also come from brisket, but more often it comes from the navel (the cut closer to the belly). The pastrami cut is more fatty and stand up to longer cooking periods. Because of this, pastrami is often paired with mustards to add acidity and cut the fatty taste somewhat. Corned beef is more of a blank pallet, where you can add whatever flavors you like. Cooking Process Both pastrami and corned beef are cured with salt water, which preserves the meat and adds flavor. However, the cooking process is different for both. Corned beef is boiled while pastrami receives a smoking treatment. Pastrami is then often rubbed with additional spices and flavoring before being smoked. Sandwiches Both cuts of meat are most often found on sandwiches. For corned beef, you are more likely to see it on reubens and other customized sandwiches on St. Patrick's Day in the United States. Often, cheese is added and melted while the bread is toasted. For pastrami, it is common to find it paired with other deli meats in a "combo" type of sandwich. New York City delis are known for their frequent use of pastrami. Appearance Corned beef is typically lighter colored and consists of a milky pink color. Pastrami is darker pink and it has visible black edges and streaks from the smoking process. Some people prefer the uniform color of corned beef and others like the varied color and taste of pastrami. Pastrami and corned beef are two classic cuts of beef that please hungry restaurant goers everywhere. They make great holiday meals as well, as they can be repurposed in a variety of ways. Just make sure to read up on the differences listed above to impress friends and family (and the local deli owner) when you order your next delicious...read more
How to Make Flavored Simple Syrups for Everyday Use
Flavored syrups have many more uses than just flavoring cocktails. If you don't drink but still want to try some of the popular and interesting flavors in cocktails, just use the syrups in something else. You can even make them yourself at home. Learn a little about flavored simple syrups and you'll quickly become hooked. What is Simple Syrup? Simple syrup gets its name because of how simple it is to make. All you do is combine equal amounts of sugar and water and then boil them together until the sugar melts and slightly thickens the water. If you add more sugar to the mixture then you end up with thicker syrup. Too much sugar and you end up with candy. Beginners should start with the basic equal amounts recipe and then experiment later. Once you have mastered simple syrup you can master flavoring it. How to Make Flavored Simple Syrup The easiest way to flavor simple syrup is to toss in a few drops of a concentrated flavoring or essential oil. You can find them in many different flavors and scents, and this makes the process incredibly easy. They are concentrated, so a couple of drops is more than enough. Make sure to read the instructions on the bottle. For something more complicated, you can use your own ingredients to flavor simple syrup. Some ideas include fruits, spices, nuts, and even candy. Here's a quick look at how these flavors are infused in the syrup: Fruits: Cook with the water and sugar until the sugar is dissolved. Strain the syrup to remove any clumps or seeds. Spices and Herbs: Cook with the sugar and water and then strain to remove. It is best to use whole spices, such as cardamom pods, cinnamon sticks, and whole nutmeg. Nuts: Nuts are often soaked and then blended up into a paste before cooking with the sugar and water. Drain the result to remove clumps. Candy: Cocoa powder will make chocolate syrup. Corn syrup becomes caramel syrup. Other candies, such as candy canes or candy corn, should be boiled down into a paste before cooking with the sugar and water. What to Do with Flavored Simple Syrups As mentioned earlier, simple syrups are most often used in cocktails, but nondrinkers can benefit from the yummy flavors, too. Toss that simple syrup into your coffee or tea. Add it on top of shaved ice or use it to make sorbet. Add it to juices for extra flavor or mix it with seltzer to make your own flavored sodas. Spread simple syrup between cake layers to not only add flavor but to keep the layers moist. Simple syrups can create complex flavors for your food and...read more
Commonly Asked Water Delivery Service Questions
It is common for businesses to provide their employees with water coolers to ensure they have access to fresh-tasting water. However, these devices will need to be regularly stocked with water, and this can be an inconvenient task for business managers to address. For those that are facing this problem, a water delivery service may be the best option for meeting this need. However, if you have never considered this option, you may need these two questions answered to help you better appreciate the convenience these services can offer you. What Should You Expect When Enrolling In A Water Delivery Service? There are some business leaders that may be under the impression that enrolling in these services is extremely expensive and inconvenient. Often, this stems from the idea that there will be expensive fees and lengthy contracts that are required. Luckily, this is not the case, and most of these providers do not require their customers to sign a lengthy contract. In regards to fees, you will most often only be required to pay a deposit for the water containers that are used by the water coolers. These containers are returnable and reusable, which is why the water delivery supplier requires this deposit, but as long as these containers are returned, this deposit should be refunded. How Are You Billed For Scheduled Water Deliveries? The amount of water that your employees will use will likely vary greatly, and this can lead to some confusion in regards to how the water delivery company will charge to restock your company's water. This misconception often centers on the idea that these services will charge a flat fee regardless of the amount of water needed by the company on delivery day. However, these companies will only charge you for the number of containers that are exchanged and the delivery fee. While there may be a minimum order amount that you will need to pay, these providers will allow you to adjust how frequently these deliveries are made to help ensure that you are not paying more for water than is absolutely necessary. Supplying your employees with enough water to ensure they are comfortable does not have to be an overly expensive or inconvenient task to do. Having a sound understanding about what you should expect when enrolling in these services and how you will be billed for the water that is supplied will help you to make the right choice about using these services for your...read more
Homeschooling Ideas: Introducing Children To Other Cultures
One of the most important lessons any parent can teach a child is about appreciating the value of the world around them. By familiarizing them with other cultures and traditions, it can spark a desire to learn more, as well as become more accepting of others. As a homeschool parent, teaching diversity is even more important because these children are not necessarily exposed to as many other types of people as they would be in a public school. Since children learn best when their lessons are fun, here are a few ideas for inspiration. Sample Unusual Cuisine Children are often exposed to Mexican, Chinese and Italian cuisines, or at least an Americanized version of them. To give them a little more understanding of how children around the world eat, look for foods they have never sampled before, such as African food. Mandazi is a type of fried bread popular in Africa. It can be served as a either sweet or savory. Jollof rice is another African recipe, one of the most popular dishes in many African nations. Both are assembled from ingredients that are usually available locally, but even if a meal with unusual ingredients is chosen, remember that it is easy to buy African food online. Teach Holiday Traditions Holidays are the most exciting time in every child's life. Whether it is Easter, Halloween or Christmas, they will love to hear how children in other countries celebrate these days. Even birthday celebrations can be unique. For example, Hindu babies have their heads shaved on their first birthdays to cleanse their souls. Nepalese children have a dyed yogurt mixture smeared on their foreheads for good luck, and Lithuanian children sit in a decorated chair that is lifted in the air by family members. Discover How They Play Toys is always a popular subject, so it is fun to help them see what other children do for their playtime. Parents can even introduce them to familiar items created in other countries. The Rubik's cube is something everyone who lived through the 1980s will recognize. It was created by a Hungarian professor named Erno Rubik. Or teach them Kongki Noli, a Korean game similar to the old-fashioned games of Jacks. There are numerous other ideas to consider, including clothing, jobs and even styles of homes. Parents can easily adapt any of these lessons to the age of the child or the child's own particular interests or hobbies. What makes it even more exciting is how much parents will enjoy researching this fun lesson....read more
How To Plan An Unforgettable Christmas Eve
Doesn't it seem like just yesterday that you were wrapping presents for Christmas of 2014? And, to top it off, summer is almost over in the blink of an eye. If you like to plan ahead, now is a good time to start your preparations for Christmas. Here are some ideas to make your Christmas Eve a memorable and lovely one for young and old alike. Think about mixing old traditions with brand new ones. Another consideration is to think of dividing the evening into blocks of time. Late Afternoon – There's nothing like giving of one's self to make a holiday meaningful. Consider going as a family to a nursing home or to serenade the residents with Christmas caroling. You'll be delighted when the residents begin to sing along with you. If you are going to take treats, it's important to check ahead with the nursing home to make sure which foods will be permitted. Another idea is to take your family to an orphanage or to a shelter for homeless folks. Bringing Christmas story books to read to the children, singing Christmas carols or doing a craft will be something that all of you can enjoy together. Going from home to home on your street singing your way along and delivering goodies at each neighbor's house will not only be well received, but you might even get to know your neighbors better. Early Evening – Combining spirituality and festivity for your evening activities will be instrumental in making special memories. No matter what you are serving, consider eating your meal early so that there will still be time to enjoy the evening activities. If there are children involved, think about putting on a Christmas pageant. You don't even need fancy props. Scarves, robes for belts, sheets for angels are fine for costumes and a baby doll wrapped in a small blanket or a towel will be a sweet Baby Jesus in swaddling clothes. If the group is made of mostly adults, simply reading about the birth of Jesus in the Bible will add meaning to your evening. To make the evening magical, think about asking somebody to be Santa Claus. If you decide to do this, you'll need to have presents ready. Consider gifts that are good for both boys and girls and simply tie them with a pretty bow in a gift bag. Be sure to let Santa know when he should arrive and tell him where you are hiding the gifts so he can bring them in when you welcome him to your home. To make the evening perfect, consider renting a snow making machine. They're more affordable than you think. The company will set up the machine for you and will even provide the ice that will be converted into what will seem like real flakes of snow falling from the sky. Can you imagine what it will be like for your guests to go outside and see a white Christmas, even if it isn't snowing? The machine can even be set up inside your house so that Santa will come into a room where snow is falling, as if by magic. For a professional ice machine, contact a company like Hawaiian Ice...read more

The university you go to may well end up shaping your future: you're going to spend the first three or four years of your adult life there, living and working with people who could become lifelong friends. That makes the decision pretty important, so you really shouldn't go into it lightly.
Luckily, there is more than enough help at hand to make that choice. Most universities have great prospectuses, while their websites are packed with detail about campus life. If you want to get the best look at an institution, though, you need to go to its open days.
"The open day works best as an opportunity for people to come and see the university in person rather than just relying on the web," says Charles Elder, Bournemouth University's press and PR manager. "Picking your university is like buying a house – it's about getting a gut feeling by talking to staff and students, and seeing if you're going to gel."
Mandy Firth, head of undergraduate recruitment at Keele University, believes that an open day can also be very helpful for prospective students to help them decide the degree they'll end up doing.
She suggests that anyone planning on attending an open day needs do a bit of homework before they make the visit; if you know what you're going to ask, you'll learn a lot more about whether this particular university is going to be right for you.
"We encourage students to book in advance, so they can get their hands on a programme, and make a plan to get the most out of the day. There are a lot of things going on, and people need to know what they want to ask about. It's probably best to come up with a list of questions beforehand, and to know who to talk to," she says.
There are plenty of practical questions to ask. On the big open days, the faculties throw their doors open as well, so take the opportunity to find out about the facilities – are the labs, the lecture theatres and the library what you are looking for? Remember – this is where you'll be studying for the next few years. Ask also about IT provision: how much access will students have to their teachers; and what will the workload is like.
Of course, university life isn't all about graft, so ask about clubs and societies – what are the sports teams or the orchestras like, and how can students become involved?
There will usually be current students on hand to show you around and answer the questions you have that the organisers can't answer. They will be able to tell you about the social life, the academic side from the consumer's viewpoint, and whether the food is as tasty as the prospectus says.
Firth believes that talking to students is one of the more important things to do on an open day. It's important to seek out kindred spirits on campus, and if you've met several beforehand, it helps.
There will probably be several talks throughout the day on the nuts and bolts of student life. Nottingham University has experts talking about accommodation, living away from home, and the all-important matter of student finance, according to events officer Jenny Wardrop. It also offers optional bus tours of the city and surrounding area, so prospective students can get an idea of what life is like off-campus for when they move out of halls.
Keele on the other hand has what Firth calls a marketplace, a hall where parents and students can have words with the careers department, the estates people, disabilities reps, and even people from the local council, so you can find out more about the local area.
Wardrop reckons that a pre-application open day is good for people in Year 12 or 13 who want to narrow down their choices. Nottingham's June and September weekends, which she helps to run, will attract 20,000 visitors each. It also runs eight more mini "campus tour days" throughout the year, for people who can't attend the big shindigs.
"Every university will be somewhat the same, so you're looking at the little things that make all the difference," Elder says. "This is your chance to look behind the scenes. You should try to get under the skin and get a sharper view of how life on the campus really is. Above all, you've got to be able to picture yourself there."Reuse content

Economic Trends and Macroeconomic Policies in Post-Revolutionary Iran
This paper reviews some of the main trends in the Iranian economy over the past two decades and discusses the key economic policy issues that divide the reformist from the more conservative factions in Iran. It argues that the economic policy dilemma of whether to liberalize the economy has not gone away and very much lies dormant. For a small open economy such as Iran's operating in an increasingly globalized world economic environment, the neglect of fundamental economic forces in favor of political vested interests can have dire consequences in the long run.

Hebrew University's Leading Anti-Zionist
Steven Plaut
FrontPageMagazine.com | Thursday, September 02, 2004
The Palestinian People. A History
. By Baruch Kimmerling and Joel S. Migdal. Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 2003. 568 pp. $45 ($17.95, paper).
Politicide: Ariel Sharon's War against the Palestinians.
By Baruch Kimmerling. London: Verso Books, 2003. 234 pp. $22.
Kimmerling, a sociologist at the Hebrew University, has long been identified as one of the leading figures in the "post-Zionist" movement, better called the anti-Zionist movement-a trendy, small group of tenured far Leftists, including including Ilan Pappe, Avi Shlaim, Oren Yiftachel, Uri Bar-Joseph, and until recently Benny Morris). He has gone so far as to endorse Palestinian terrorism against right-wing Israelis and more broadly against Israelis in general. He has also openly endorsed the use of violence
Two books by Kimmerling appeared in 2003, one of them with a co-author, and both are getting plenty of attention. They have been widely reviewed, especially by magazines and web sites that are hostile to Israel, and have been produced in Arabic in the West Bank. Even
Foreign Affairs
gave sympathetic reviews to both these books.
One of the two books, The Palestinian People, is an update of a study first released in 1993 and subsequently translated into Hebrew, Arabic, and other languages, as well as lauded on the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO)'s web sites; [See
]. The 2003 version is slightly amended. His co-author, Migdal, is a political scientist at the University of Washington.
No one, of course, doubts there are Arabic-speaking people who have lived in what was once called Palestine ever since the Muslim empire arose, and there were Arabic tribes around even earlier, some mentioned in the Bible. By the 1800s, some Arabs in Palestine were participating here and there in rebellions and turf battles within the Islamic world. The authors think this constitutes proof of nationhood, and by the same litmus test, the participants in the Whiskey Rebellion were a nation. When the local Turkish pasha revolted against the suzerainty of the Egyptian overlord Mohammed Ali, he was backed by some local sheikhs and effendis in Palestine. For the authors this constitutes evidence of emerging Palestinian nationhood even back then, but again, by the same litmus test, the participants in the Whiskey Rebellion were a nation. On page 78 the authors declare that local Arabs had developed a Palestinian self-definition by 1908; the citation for this remarkable finding turns out to be an old book that actually went out of its way to emphasize that Palestine was regarded by Arabs in the early part of the 20
century as Southern Syria. The authors here forgot to cite that.
While Kimmerling and Migdal insist that Palestinians are an ancient people, existing as a nation for centuries, no one bothered to inform the Palestinians. While there was some talk as far back as 1920 of creating an independent Palestinian state, there is no evidence that any grassroots Palestinian nationalism existed before 1967. [For more information, see "The Year the Arabs Discovered Palestine."
Middle East Review
, Summer 1989, pp. 37-44]
At most, Palestinians were a minor and unimportant subgroup within Arab civilization and within Arab nationalism (which is itself also a modern contrivance). Before 1900, Palestine was a sleepy underpopulated backwater within the Ottoman world (see David Landes, "Palestine Before the Zionists,"
, February 1976). It was a sparsely populated area with a heterogeneous population. Local Muslims in Palestine in the nineteenth century were a hodgepodge of Arabs, Turks, Circassians, Bosnians, and others. Local Christians of Palestine were probably even more heterogeneous.
While Jews had trickled in and out of Palestine all along, Jewish immigration began to pick up towards the end of the nineteenth century. Along with the financial and higher-skilled human capital being brought in by Jews came one other thing: Arabs. Arabs from neighboring countries migrated into Palestine where job opportunities were to be found and amenities, such as hospitals, were built. By 1948, the bulk of those later to be labeled Palestinians were members of families who had been in Palestine for three generations or less, exactly the same as the Jews. But that is another set of facts conveniently missing from this history book. [ See Roberto Bachi,
The Population of Israel
, Jerusalem: Institute of Contemporary Jewry, Hebrew University, 1974 and also
; Joan Peters,
From Time Immemorial,
HarperCollins, 2001]
The attempt by Kimmerling and Migdal to fabricate an ancient Palestinian nationhood is not the first time "nations" have been invented out of whole cloth. The dubiousness of Palestinian nationhood should be clearly evident to all, in the fact that when the West Bank and Gaza were under the illegal rule [The Jordanian annexation of West Bank was not recognized by anyone except Pakistan!] of Jordan, from 1948-67, there never emerged any Palestinian independence movement there, nor in the Egyptian-ruled Gaza Strip. I doubt one can find reference to a single Palestinian before 1967, demanding that those areas be relinquished and converted into a Palestinian nation state.
The fact that the population of Jordan itself is predominantly Palestinian raises other questions. If the Palestinians are indeed a people, why has there never been a Kurdish-style independence movement or a set of Palestinian organizations inside Jordan, demanding the exercise of Palestinian sovereignty there? Do Palestinians only develop the need for self-determination when they happen to fall under Israeli control? Why were Palestinians not in need of self-determination on June 4, 1967, but desperately in need of it a week later? The answer is that Palestinians "self-determination", like Sudeten self-determination, was an invention to provide figleaf for a campaign of aggression and war, launched by aggressors intending to destroy a sovereign state.
In the first edition of the book, there was no mention at all of the Grand Mufti and of Palestinian collaboration with German Nazism in World War II. (In the new edition there is only the briefest passing mention.) This is highly relevant; as allies of the Axis, Palestinians had far less moral claims to self-determination after the war than did others, even if they might have been regarded as a "nation" in the late 1940s. There is almost no mention at all in the book of the wave of terrorist atrocities carried out in the 1950s by fedayeen terrorists; the Maale ha-Akrabim massacre is never mentioned at all. It never occurs to the authors that Palestinians might just have forfeited any legitimate or moral claim to statehood in the decades of mass atrocities, a bit as did the Hutus.
There is no citing of many of the important works on the creation of the Palestinian refugee problem, such as those by Efraim Karsh. There is no discussion at all of the corruption of the Palestinian Authority and its human rights atrocities committed against Palestinians. The authors are willing to take things at face value, especially when that makes Israel look bad. They claim that between 500,000 and a million Palestinian Arabs became refugees in 1948-49, most of them victims expelled by Israel, this on the basis of nothing more than what apparently is common knowledge that everyone knows. In fact, even the 500,000 number may be too high; some Arab sources
put it as lower
, and a large segment of the actual refugees were permitted subsequently to return quietly to Israel.
Even Abu-Mazen, the erstwhile Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority, has confirmed that the cause of Palestinians becoming refugees was the order by the Arab leadership that they flee the battle zones.
There is no mention at all of the million Jews expelled from Arab countries, most of whom moved to Israel. This is disingenuous; one cannot discuss "Palestinian demography" in isolation from Israeli Jewish demography. [Au: why should there be when that's not the topic? Because you cannot discuss "Palestinian demography" in isolation from Jewish demography.]
While at first posturing as balanced critics of both the Palestinian Authority and of Israel, the authors' mask of neutrality falls very quickly. They make it quite clear they consider Israel the main reason why Oslo has failed and they even fault Israel for obvious PLO violations and atrocities. For example, the authors assert that the Tunnel Pogrom of 1996 started because Israel opened up a tunnel that ran under the Temple Mount, except the tunnel in question does not run anywhere near the Temple Mount. The authors refuse to refer to the Temple Mount, by the way, because that might indicate that Jews have some legitimate rights to it and so instead regularly refer to it as
haram al-sharif
. The two authors assert, with no proof, that Israel expelled most of the Palestinian refugees, whereas the bulk were simply people seeking to escape battle zones at the direct instructions of the Arab leadership. The level of objectivity of the book is revealed in the frequent use of the term "Naqba" to refer to Israel's creation.
The second half of the book is mainly a discussion of the Oslo years. From these chapters you will discover how Israel was the obstacle to a peace accord with the PLO, and even Ehud Barak's offer to Arafat at Camp David II was little more than a sham. You are unlikely to learn that Arafat signed the early peace accords simply to gain access to the "occupied territories" from which he planned to launch a campaign of terrorist atrocities. You are unlikely to discover that Arafat began ordering terrorist strikes on Jews almost as soon as the Oslo ink was dry.
In the second book,
, Kimmerling - on his own this time - takes the ideas from The Palestinian People and carries them to new extremes. Blessedly shorter than the other book, this time Kimmerling's message is that Israel has been transformed into a single-purpose country, whose raison d'etre is "politicide," by which Kimmerling means the destruction of the Palestinian nation. Israel is nothing more than a "Herrenvolk Republic," a state based on presumptions of Jews being a master race, something morally equivalent to Nazi Germany.
While purporting to be an analysis of the Middle East conflict, this book is little more than a blustering ad hominem attack on Ariel Sharon. For Kimmerling, Sharon is the epitome of all that is evil, a Middle Eastern Richard III. Kimmerling's demonization of Sharon is so wild that it is doubtful anything of value about Sharon's actual failings and shortcomings can sensibly be extracted by anyone reading the book. Sharon, according to Kimmerling, is nothing more than an "agent of destruction" (p. 4), quietly or openly endorses ethnic cleansing of Arabs (p. 29-30), has a history of committing unjustified acts of wanton violence as part of personal vendettas against Arabs (p. 52). He pooh-poohs Sharon's military achievements (pp.54-68). He considers large numbers of Israeli leaders to be "war criminals", including of course Sharon (p.101).
Kimmerling is only mildly less venomous when it comes to the Israeli Left, which he regards as cowardly and insufficiently militant. I suspect he finds them insufficiently anti-Zionist for his tastes. He denounces the leftist Meretz party for remaining inside the "holy national consensus" (p. 5). He takes the Left to task for being too moderate, for not using civil disobedience enough (pp. 167-181), and lacking an "up-to-date political agenda" (p. 181), by which he no doubt means Kimmerling's own anti-Israel agenda. Kimmerling sees Palestinian atrocities and terrorism as legitimate acts of protest against the desperate condition and injustices of Palestinian life (p. 74ff.) He denounces Israel as a "Thatcherist and semi-fascist regime" (p. 5). He regards any two-state solution to be worse than the Bantustans South Africa once tried to set up (p. 209), raising suspicion that the only thing he would accept as a real solution would be Israel's liquidation.
But the most important reason to pass over this book is its Orwellism. There is indeed a political entity in the Middle East whose entire raison d'etre is the "politicide" or destruction of another nation: the PLO. The Middle East conflict is indeed all about attempted annihilation of a nation, but Kimmerling-characteristically-has things exactly in reverse.

The Luxury Visionaries 2016
Forgoing the thrust and distance provided by rockets, World View will instead rely on an immense, high-altitude balloon to lift a pressurised capsule some 100,000ft
Could recreational space travel become a commonplace reality within our lifetime? Recent innovations could make it so. Following delays, Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic "spaceline" is expected to launch by the end of this year; its first commercial passengers will be hurtled into space for $250,000 (about £150,000).
A less publicised and relatively inexpensive alternative is due to begin operations in 2016. That is when the Arizona-based World View Enterprises expects to launch the first World View flights, billed by the company as a "transformative space travel experience". Forgoing the thrust and distance provided by rockets, the service will instead rely on an immense, high-altitude balloon to lift a pressurised capsule some 100,000ft.
From that height, almost 20 miles above the planet's surface, a select group of six passengers and two crew members will be able to admire the curvature of the Earth and the infinity of space beyond it. Should members of this privileged group lack the concentration simply to focus on the spectacular sight before them, they can share their thoughts with friends below – the capsule will be equipped with internet access, so real-time social media updates will be possible.
The concept seems worryingly simple, but similar means were used to lift the skydiver Felix Baumgartner to a height of 128,100ft in 2012. The World View team is confident in the nascent technology and has an astronaut, Mark Kelly, as its director of flight crew operations. Nasa's former head of science, Dr Alan Stern, is its chief scientist. Under their guidance World View has been developed to include an integrated life-support system that will protect against unlikely leaks in the capsule; the vehicle can be fully operated by ground crew if necessary; and there is no risk of the vessel's simply disappearing into space. Like ice floating on water, it is designed to skate above the Earth's atmosphere without detaching from it.
The entire flight experience will last five to six hours, with passengers floating at peak altitude for about two hours before beginning their descent. The capsule's "Parawing" will enable it to glide gently downwards, and passengers and crew should expect to land within a 300-mile radius of the take-off point.
Introductory tickets will cost from $75,000 (about £45,000) but, should the service prove popular, expect prices to drop as flight frequency increases and competitors emerge to provide similar services. For intrepid travellers eager to explore different environments, a new frontier may be about to open up.

Last Titanic letter sells for £119,000 auction
26 April 2014 Last updated at 22:55 BST
The last letter to be written on the ill-fated Titanic has sold for a total of £119,000 at auction.
The letter was written by survivors Esther Hart and her seven-year-old daughter Eva eight hours before the ship hit an iceberg and sank in 1912.
It only survived because it was in the pocket of her husband's coat which he gave her to keep warm.
Daniel Boettcher reports.

NFL Draft's Potential Patriots: SMU DE Margus Hunt
|03.11.13 at 2:15 pm ET
WEEI.com will continue to offer daily insight and analysis regarding options that might be available to the Patriots when it comes to the 2013 NFL draft. Here is one is a series of profiles of players who could be on the board when it's time for the Patriots to make a selection.
Position: Defensive end
School: SMU
Height: 6-foot-8
Weight: 277 pounds
Achievements: 2012 All-C-USA first team, 20011, 2010, 2009 All-C-USA honorable mention, owns NCAA career record for field goals blocked (17)
What he brings: Hunt, a native of Estonia, stands out immediately for his size and kick-blocking ability. He's described as quick and agile for his size, and has the strength to knock opposing players around when he reaches them. His height allows him to interfere with quarterbacks' vision even when he can't reach them. On the negative side, Hunt went to SMU to be part of the track team and only began playing football in 2009, and that rawness shows in his game at times. At 25, he's also older than most draft prospects. While Hunt is physically gifted, he will need a better knowledge of the game and an improved ability to track receivers and ball-carriers to be truly successful at the NFL level.
Where the Patriots could get him: Round 1 or 2
Notes: Inexperience and inconsistency are two of the most common knocks on Hunt, but the fact that he's set both the world record in the discus throw (in the junior Olympics in Beijing in 2006) and an NCAA record for field goals blocked shows his athletic upside. He looks like a high-risk, high-reward option for whatever team takes a chance on him. A strong performance at the scouting combine has his stock rising.

Technological Diffusion Patterns and their Effects on Industrial Dynamics
By focussing on cumulativeness and spillover effects of technological knowledge, theories on technological regimes are predominantly supply side oriented in explaining industrial dynamics. This paper introduces demand side considerations as an additional explanation for industrial dynamics. Given variations in consumer preferences over quality and network sizes of technologies, and different degrees of compatibility between succeeding technologies, we investigate how the resulting differences in the timing and frequency of new technology adoptions effect the industrial dynamics. The simulation results of the model indeed suggest a relationship between different patterns of new technology adoptions and the dynamics of the firm population.
