What The Bible Says About War (5 of 5) by Stan Coffey
This content is part of a series.What The Bible Says About War (5 of 5)
Stan Coffey
Matthew 24:4-7
October 21, 2001
How do you justify war when Jesus was a man of peace? Some people may say, "How can Christians be a part of an attack in Afghanistan? How can they be behind a nation that has gone on the aggressive side to root our terrorism. How does that square with what the Bible teaches about peace and love and forgiving your enemies?" What does the Bible say about that? I think we need to stop and think about that and look at God's Word. (Read Matthew 24:3-7) Certainly in verse 7 we're seeing that happen today. Nation against nation, kingdom against kingdom. We're seeing earthquakes. We're seeing famine. We're seeing pestilence even in our own country in the Anthrax scare. So, what does the Bible say about war?
Most of us know the gravity of our times. This week the nation of Israel was attacked by terrorists from the Palestinian Liberation Organization who said that they were fighting against Israel. They were attacked in a way they had never been attacked before. A cabinet member of the Israeli Parliament was assassinated. Now, Israel has declared they will do what America is doing in Afghanistan. That they will go on the aggressive side and they will go on the offense and they will root out the terrorist. They are demanding that Yasser Arafat immediately cease all aggression. So we see an escalation in the Middle East at the same time we see an escalation in America's war in Afghanistan against terrorism. We know that war will not only be against that one country. But, our president has said that we must seek out the terrorists and destroy them and the nations that support them wherever they may be. What does the Bible say about all this?
1. Well, first of all I want you to consider the reason for war. What causes war? In James 4:1-2 the Bible tells us the root of all war. He said, "from whence comes fightings and quarrels among you? Do they not come fr ...

People with a sensitive skin-type can feel like they are in a never-ending battle with their skin, dealing with symptoms such as itchiness, extreme dryness, stinging and redness, and they often come to Tata searching for solutions. Sensitive skin is very common but can easily be dealt with and greatly alleviated with the right kind of daily care. Below is a guide to the best natural skincare regimen for sensitive skin types – but first, let's take a closer look at what causes sensitivity, and what might help.
First, it's important to discern between a skin type and a skin condition: sensitive skin is a type, classified as skin that's easily irritated or inflamed, but it's not a skin condition. It can, however, be caused by medical skin conditions, such as eczema, rosacea, psoriasis or allergic contact dermatitis. If you were to visit the dermatologist, they might stick to the books and declare that your skin technically isn't "sensitive" unless it's very, very dry (which exposes the nerve endings and blood vessels under the epidermis), or has a tendency to turn flushed and red easily, or if actual skin reactions are caused by anything from exposure to the environment to particular products (those reactions being either bumps, spots or other inflammations) – or, all three. Simply having an uncomfortable reaction to a product doesn't technically (according to Web MD) qualify you as having sensitive skin. That said, we all know that it feels sensitive when your skin disagrees with new products that it tries, so in our definition we'll include that as well.
What is sensitive skin, technically? It's basically a simple situation in which the skin's outermost and protective layer, the epidermis, is compromised. That means that irritants easily get into our skin to cause problems; it also means that the skin's ability to maintain moisture is limited, causing dehydration.
What causes skin sensitivity? So many things. It can be almost impossible to narrow down. A few common causes: allergic reactions to harsh ingredients, chemicals or fragrances in common products, allergic reactions to food, hormonal imbalances, stress levels, genetics, or even medications. The list is long, but there is a fairly straightforward list of things you can do to reduce the symptoms, starting with:
- Avoid products with detergents or alcohols, both of which are too strong and compromise the skin's protective barrier.
- Moisturize properly, which is key, to both protect the skin and replenish lost moisture.
- Avoid intense ingredients like acids, retinols and alcohols.
- Avoid rough scrubs and exfoliants, which further degrade the barrier.
- Avoid products with synthetic fragrance!
- Essentially, aim for mild, healing, gentle products.
Let's discuss the reasons that Tata Harper Skincare products in particular can be great for sensitive skin. First, none contain harsh chemicals (our formulas have zero synthetic chemicals at all, in fact), or detergents, or alcohol. All products are oriented towards delivering high-quality, replenishing moisture – none are dehydrating. None contain synthetic fragrances. All contain high concentrations of healing natural ingredients that nourish skin with vitamins, minerals, nutrients and antioxidants – exactly what it needs to get back on track.
And now, the regimen!
Step 1: Remove makeup. People with sensitive skin types in particular should be careful to properly remove all traces of makeup at the end of each day; any buildup or residue can cause irritation when left overnight. Use our Nourishing Oil Cleanser on a damp cotton round to remove makeup, or, pump a few pumps into your palms and massage over the skin. Splash with a bit of water to form a light milk, and then rinse thoroughly. The Nourishing Oil Cleanser's formula is gentle, hydrating and packed with balancing, moisturizing ingredients like Camellia Flower and Argan Oil.
Step 2: Cleanse. Our Refreshing Cleanser was the first formula in the line formulated specifically for sensitive skin, and it is a game-changer. It cleanses with pink clay, essential oils and fruit enzymes from grapefruit and pomegranate. The enzymes gently remove dead skin and buildup through chemical exfoliation (versus physical) to keep skin fresh and decongested without irritating it. The light, natural scent fades quickly and skin is left feeling moisturized and balanced.
Step 3: Tone & Hydrate. Since moisture is so important for restoring the balance of sensitive skin, our Hydrating Floral Essence is an excellent item to have handy for daily use as it's oil-free, lightweight and packed with Hyaluronic Acid, a moisturizing substance that our own skin produces (the production of which slows as we age), to help optimize skin's moisture balance. Spritz the skin after cleansing to lightly hydrate, or keep it handy through the day to replenish when needed.
Step 4: No matter your skin type, an age-defying serum is key. The trick is finding one that cooperates with your sensitivity. Our Rejuvenating Serum's formula is, of course, synthetic-chemical free, and is filled with naturally hydrating ingredients that fight aging by supporting healthy, youthful skin and smoothing the appearance of wrinkles. Its lightweight, fast-absorbing formula sinks in right away, leaving the surface of the skin free and clear.
Step 5: Moisturize. For sensitive skin types, choosing a high-quality moisturizer that contains therapeutic ingredients is important, to promote and maintain a healthy barrier. Select one of our cream moisturizers to use daily: the Rebuilding Moisturizer (more lightweight) for a matte finish, or the Repairative Moisturizer (more rich) for a dewy finish. Both contain Hyaluronic Acid to replenish moisture, raw honey to nourish and reduce inflammation, and Safflower Oleosomes to continually draw moisture into the skin.
Step 6: Treat & Protect. For sensitive skin, the Replenishing Nutrient Complex is a life-saver, and I probably can't recommend it highly enough. It's a lightweight oil serum, packed with herbal and floral extracts that heal, hydrate, nourish, soften, soothe and restore. It is a powerful balancing treatment for dryness, oiliness, irritation or even injured skin; Alfalfa helps oxygenate the skin while nourishing with vitamins A, B, C, D and E, while Jojoba hydrates and Arnica diminishes redness and inflammation. Choose either the large or small packaging, and massage a liberal amount of the oil lightly into the skin as the last step of your routine. Use it as a nightly treatment, too: apply heavily to the skin, massage lightly to absorb, and head to bed – you'll wake up with skin that feels dramatically softer and more balanced.
We hope you explore some of the recommended solutions and products above. Remember, the three keys to reducing the symptoms of sensitivity are to replenish and protect the skin's barrier, soothe and heal redness and inflammation, and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. Best of luck. Any questions? Please leave them in the comments below!

Complex behaviors, such as aggression, are comprised of distinct stereospecific behavioral patterns (modules). How such patterns get wired into nervous systems remains unknown. Recently, we reported on a quantitative analysis of fighting behavior in male flies of the common Canton-S strain of Drosophila melanogaster. Here, we report a similar analysis of fighting behavior in females of the same species. Fights were carried out between pairs of virgin and pairs of mated females in competition for a yeast resource. Each fight was videotaped and analyzed by using transition matrices and Markov chain analyses. We observe only small difference in fighting intensity between virgin and mated females. In contrast to what is seen in male fights, however, no clear hierarchical relationship is formed in the female fights. A further comparison of the behavioral patterns making up male and female fights reveals that some modules are shared by both sexes, whereas others are highly selective. Within the shared components, transitions between the modules also show gender-selective differences. By using the powerful genetic methods available for examining behavior in fruit flies, it should be possible to use the gender-selective differences in fighting behavior to address the question of how these behavioral patterns get established in the brains of fruit flies.

Donovan attacks Glasser. Why?
Todd Donovan promotes Republican opponent to squeeze out Amy Glasser in primary election.
If you enjoy the content you find here, please consider donating to support our continued efforts to bring you the best news and opinion articles we can. We hope you like the recent update to NWCitizen, and look forward to bringing you more insight into local politics and issues in 2017.
In January, state Senator Doug Ericksen and former Senator Don Benton left Washington state for the nation's capital with high hopes of playing major roles in revamping the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency during the Trump years, but events have turned out quite differently. Ericksen is back at his Olympia desk, toiling through the special 2017 legislative session, while Benton has been dispatched to political Siberia as the director of the Selective Service System. Their once-rising stars appear to have fallen abruptly from the Trump firmament.
Things began auspiciously for Benton, who served as the leader of the 11-member EPA "beachhead" team. Its primary goal was to grab the agency's reins while the president's nominee for EPA Administrator, Scott Pruitt, ran the Senate gauntlet during his confirmation. The week after inauguration, Benton organized and chaired at least eight meetings of the team with top EPA staffers and among its members, according to internal agency emails that have surfaced. Ericksen, who attended almost all those meetings, was a core member of this beachhead team.
As senior adviser to the White House, Benton also served as its "eyes and ears at the agency." Politico dubbed these advisers a kind of "shadow cabinet," whose purpose is to maintain control and focus on White House priorities, despite presidential promises to grant political appointees like Pruitt substantial autonomy. As Politico noted, however, "they could also face tensions with the cabinet secretaries [or agency administrators like Pruitt] for micromanaging."
Trump could hardly have found a more controversial adviser than Benton, who had served as his Washington state campaign director. They famously bonded over a Big Mac and a Filet-O-Fish during the real-estate mogul's May visit to the Evergreen State. Seattle Times political columnist Danny Westneat called Benton's selection "a textbook case of party-patronage cronyism." Benton had, he observed, "an almost perfect track record of failure and interpersonal conflict, often resulting in legal or disciplinary action, at every public position he's held."
True to form, he reportedly managed to drive Pruitt "batty" shortly after his Senate confirmation came through on February 17. According to anonymous EPA insiders who spoke with the Washington Post, "Benton piped up so frequently during policy discussions that he had been dismissed from many of them."
This beachhead/shadow-cabinet approach is curiously reminiscent of Soviet- era leaders who installed networks of loyal party apparatchiks within government agencies to keep watch over the officials within them and control what was going on. But in this case, it's the apparatchik who got himself sent to Siberia!
Meanwhile, back at the EPA, Ericksen was having a difficult time adjusting to the merciless ways of the national press corps in his capacity as the beachhead team's communication director. In an interview with National Public Radio on Tuesday, January 24, Ericksen stated that any agency scientists who wanted to publish their findings would need to have their work reviewed before it could be released. Big mistake. That statement ran afoul of official EPA policy, enacted during the Obama years, prohibiting agency leaders from intimidating scientists or otherwise politicizing the release of scientific results.
Ericksen was further quoted as saying, "We're taking a look at everything on a case-by-case basis, including the web page and whether climate stuff will be taken down." His statement came amid widespread public concern about a "media blackout," suspension of EPA grants, and a broader White House "communications clampdown."
Trump spokesman Sean Spicer told reporters—probably ingenuously—that the EPA clampdown wasn't directed by the White House, which put our sometime senator out on a very shaky limb. That same Wednesday, Ericksen began backpedaling on climate change, saying the EPA was not planning to remove any web content on the subject. "We're looking at scrubbing it up a bit, putting a little freshener on it, and getting it back up to the public." He also softened his stance on EPA science.
But by January 30, the words "science" and "scientific" had curiously been removed, on Ericksen's watch, from the mission statement of the EPA Office of Science and Technology Policy. Maybe that qualified as "scrubbing" in his mind. For he has shown little understanding of science as a state senator, inviting at least three climate-change deniers to lecture the Senate Committee on Energy, Environment and Telecommunications that he chairs.
Ericksen must have been relieved to get back to good old, familiar Olympia on February 1. But his return was delayed for several hours due to his scheduled flight being cancelled, triggering postponements and cancellations at the state capitol—and another round of press criticism, this time of his ability to serve two masters a continent apart and double dipping at government coffers. "It's an incredible honor when the president asks you to be one of the first 200 people on his transition team," said Ericksen, attempting to deflect mounting local criticism.
For his efforts those first two weeks, he earned gross pay of $6206.40 covering 80 hours of work (which probably included weekend time), corresponding to a huge annual salary of $161,900. Ericksen was thus being compensated at the very highest level an ordinary non-political federal employee can achieve — over three times his state senate salary rate of $46,839. In contrast, Ph.D. scientists normally take many years to attain that lofty level at federal agencies.
His official position description as "senior adviser" stated that he was to "advise on the implications of proposed, new, or revised policies, regulations and legislative proposals." The purpose of his work was "to plan and conduct analyses of vital policies that are of agency-wide interest and scope." Offhand, this job description sounds impressive—and worthy of the topmost salary.
But because of potential conflicts of interest with his position as a Washington state senator, Ericksen was excluded from working on policy matters by the EPA ethics office. It was a major reason he ended up as communications director—a position for which he was ill prepared and botched in the very first week on the job.
Since at least mid-February, the role of EPA spokesman has been handled by another beachheader, John Konkus, who is continuing with the agency. Ericksen seems to have gone radio quiet since then, suggesting he's on the outs with Pruitt or the White House. Multiple reliable sources, in Washington, DC, and Olympia, have affirmed this interpretation. And on April 17, InsideEPA.com, an online news service, stated explicitly that Benton and Ericksen were not among Pruitt's core staff members. Calls to the EPA Public Affairs Office trying to confirm Ericksen's demotion or departure went unanswered.
It does not look like Ericksen will get the position he covets as administrator of EPA's Region 10 office in Seattle, either. With a current budget of over $300 million and more than 500 employees, that office oversees agency activities in Alaska, Idaho, Oregon and Washington. According to a long-established tradition, the administrator's position rotates among these four states, and Alaska is next in line since the previous administrator, Dennis McLerran, who stepped down at the end of December, came from Washington. And the political stars have hardly aligned for Ericksen in the nation's capital, depriving him of a potential source of support for this position.
Ericksen was however given an office and computer to use at the EPA Region 10 headquarters, according to two staffers there, but he has rarely if ever used them. Not what one would expect of a man who was hoping to step in as the next regional administrator.
"The world's leading climate scientists have consistently found that climate change is the preeminent environmental challenge facing us today," said McLerran in a telephone interview, when asked about the next regional administrator. "That makes Senator Ericksen's past record as a climate skeptic very concerning."
Ericksen's likely role as administrator would have been to implement the drastic cutbacks being promoted by Pruitt and other presidential appointees—for example, to slash by 91 percent the $28 million currently being spent annually to help Puget Sound ecosystems recover from past environmental damage.
Thus few tears will be shed hereabouts that Benton and Ericksen will not be serving as the highly paid environmental "watchdogs" they had hoped to become. But given the way things are trending in the other Washington, we cannot hold out much hope that their replacements will be any better.
Excellent article on Doug Ericksen's latest career move. I would urge Doug not to be a quitter and to promptly fly back to DC and keep trying to secure a job with the Trump administration. In the meanwhile, perhaps Doug could also refund the money he demands from Washington State taxpayers for not working in the Legislature during the most recent session.
In many jobs, if you demand money for time not spent at work, it is enough to get you fired. Perhaps taking money from DC while causing economic disruption of the Washington State Legislature was some form of protest by Mr. Ericksen?
Perhaps it rises to the level of Doug's PEDA bill? "Economic Terrorism" costing the State Legislature time and money to accomodate the absences and double dipping. In the meanwhile, let's hope Doug finds a suitable, high paying position back East soon, as he so greatly desires.
Thanks, Elisabeth and Michael, for exposing "a textbook case of party-patronage cronyism" and double-dipping by a couple of our local Republi-hacks. Whose qualifications are, essentially, they may be hacks, but they are our hacks.
It's actually somewhat edifying that neither Benton nor Ericksen made the cut. There may be some competence in the Trump administration, after all! A bit of a two-edged sword, however…..........
Thanks for your comments, Tim and David, for they allow me to revise and extend my earlier remarks, and to speak to my own personal interpretations of these events. Elisabeth may not agree, at least not entirely.
I think the tsunami of media coverage earlier this year on Ericksen was focusing on the "Double-Dipping Doug" sideshow rather than the main event, a typical press feeding frenzy. In fact, so were Elisabeth and I when we started digging into the details behind the scenes. But the real, untold story was how he completely botched the job of communications director for the EPA beachhead team, a postion for which he was (and still is) patently unqualified. Serving in such a difficult, sensitive role inside the Beltway requires years of experience there, building trusting relationships with national reporters and editors. For example, a good friend of mine who stepped up as the communications director for the National Science Foundation, had served for over a decade before that as a science writer and editor for the Washington Post.
As we spoke to knowledgeable sources and read documents unearthed in FOIA searches, we could find little evidence for Doug working at the EPA Headquarters beyond mid-February, especially after Pruitt stepped in the day after his February 17 confirmation — and plenty of evidence that he had returned to his regular day job in Olympia. He seems to have been replaced as EPA beachhead team spokesman by John Konkus, who had served on the staff of New York Congressman Sherry Boehlert (R-Utica) and DID have the requisite inside-the-Beltway experience. And on April 14, the EPA put out notice that Doug was no longer on board but Konkus would continue in his press capacity. That cinched it for us.
Nevertheless, Doug had been pulling down the maximum possible salary for an ordinary, non-political federal employee (except for those like Don Benton, who got Senior Executive Service postings) at GS-15, step 10, corresponding to the top $161,900 annual salary. Ordinarily it takes years of relevant experience to reach this lofty level. Doug had next to none when he stepped in.
His inauspicous first week on the beachhead job probably sealed matters for him at the EPA by alienating key political players. One very knowledgable source, a key Senate staffer, told me that he was "hated in DC" — including at the White House. Another well-placed source told me that Doug had no future at the agency, but might be looking for a suitable job at Agriculture or Interior, where he probably knows Secretary Ryan Zinke, who visited Cherry Point while a coal-pushing Montana Congressman. Doug had probably gotten too used to feeding whole hog at the federal trough at a bloated six-figure salary and isn't very happy returning to a measly $46,839 senate salary — no matter how many free meals he gets from lobbyists!
Hopefully they can find a harmless sinecure for Doug there, like the one the Trump forces located for his chum Don Benton at the Selective Service System. With a meager $24 million budget and only 125 employees, it does essentially nothing except register 18-to-26 year olds for a possible draft in case Trump gets us into a big shooting war. And the position of SSS director did not require any Senate confirmation — which Don could never have passed!
And finally, Doug's "incredible honor" in serving the Grifter in Chief and the band of avaricious kleptocrats hovering about the White House proves that he does not understand the true meaning of the word "honor."
According to an official EPA press release dated April 28th, the EPA is updating the Climate Change webpage to reflect the opinion of the current administration.
Here's a link to the EPA Climate Change Page and a second link to the EPA Press Release.
According to the release, a link will remain on the page to the old administration's archived website. Here's the link to the archived website. The red banner at the top of the page warns visitors that many of the links may no longer work, since the pages will no longer be updated.
Naturally, the media is having a field day with the announcement.
Silly me, I actually thought that science is the systematic study of the natural/physcial world through observation and experiments!
Anyone, other than myself, remember Monty Python's Spanish Inquisition skit?

Project DescriptionThis project was the first building completed by the University of South Carolina in its newly designated research district. Located directly across from the anti-bellum campus, it serves as a gateway between the city and the university, facing each in opposite directions. As such, the north and east street facades abstractly recall the language and rhythms of the campus architecture, while the south and west courtyard facades more closely reflect the scientific research within. Eventually, this building will form one side of a science courtyard, facing it and a future building with a broad expanse of glass, revealing research activity inside and animating the space outside.
As the University of South Carolina, in partnership with the City of Columbia, SC, develops a new "Innovista" research district spanning from the university's campus down to the city's riverfront, USC's "Horizon I" building marks the first step in that effort. As such, the building serves as a symbolic link between town and gown, embracing both an academic tradition tracing back two centuries and the promise of a future state-of-the-art, research-driven economy.
The building's massing and architectural character address two mandates: a strong desire by the university's board of trustees to recall the anti-bellum architecture of the university's historic "Horseshoe" quadrangle, and a desire on the part of university researchers to embrace technological research. The resulting design is a coupling of compositional strategies. A "protective" shell of punched masonry faces the streets and campus beyond, while a thinner, expressive skin of glass and aluminum faces inward and toward the city below. The punched masonry facades, in turn, establish rhythms reminiscent of historic campus architecture but at a much larger scale, incorporating brushed aluminum in the punched openings to both tie with other façade elements and to address the shift in scale. Moving around the building, to the courtyard side, the proportions of masonry to aluminum flip exactly, with masonry panels serving as a foil to abstract compositions of aluminum and glass.
The corner atrium functions literally and figuratively as the gateway to the Innovista. While the exterior expression recalls monumental structures found on the main campus, members are attenuated to allow views inside. Inside, the monumental stair takes on the technological industrial expression of the research labs within.
Laboratories within the building are varied and research is proprietary. Each laboratory requires a variety of services and is upfitted with moveable furnishings and equipment, all of which must respond rapidly to change as research develops and evolves.
Designed for maximum flexibility as well as confidentiality, the building is organized into generic zones that can be subdivided as necessary for future researchers. Laboratory zones are organized along a broad service/utility and storage corridor accessed directly off the service elevator. Two types of office/lab configurations are provided, adjacent to labs and across a corridor, depending on team configurations and confidentiality requirements. Communal conference rooms and informal breakout areas are provided at either end of the building.

Rafael's Estate is the home of Rafael. Besides a lavish home, there is also a spacious yard in the back.
Rafael once held a big party at his estate and had Luigi cater the event. Slimer ended up delivering the food but tossed them when he bumped right into Rafael. Luckily, the guests thought it was a brilliant way to serve them and congratulated Rafael for hosting the social event of the year.

His ligancy to U-M, however, is different from most commits. It's more of a family thing with Runyan Jr. His father, Jon Runyan, starred for the Wolverines' from 1993-95 and was an All-Big Ten offensive lineman. So naturally when he committed in June 2014, it was a "dream" scenario for the lifelong Michigan fan.
"It's my dream school and I really don't want to play anywhere else," Runyan Jr said after his commitment. "I just can't play anywhere else. I couldn't see myself playing anywhere else."
4 Months of GoBlueWolverine For Just $9.95His offer came after a strong football camp performance. And his commitment came to no surprise to his father.
"My dad (thought) I was going to commit the whole time," Runyan Jr. said. "I have been telling him my whole life that I want to play football for Michigan. He wasn't surprised I committed. He was just happy and relieved. He feels awesome that I am going to Michigan."
Coming off an strong senior season at Philadelphia (Pa.) St. Joseph's Prep, Runyan Jr. added nearly 20-pounds to his 6-foot-4, 276-pound frame. Listed as Scout.com's No. 30 offensive guard in the country, he played most of his senior season at left tackle. Although he admits, he doesn't know what position he'll play at Michigan.
"I really don't know yet," he said. "Depending on how much I grow. I hope I can play tackle. I like tackle, it's a fun position, you're always outside."
National recruiting analyst Brain Dohn gave this recent evaluation of Runyan Jr.:
"Runyan under is athletic and gets out of his stance quickly. He has good foot movement and can get to the second level, knows how to position his body and he does a fantastic job of recognizing whom to block. He spins the defensive player to square himself and seal a hole in the line of scrimmage and is technically sound. He needs to increase his strength and be quicker on his initial punch so defenders don't get in on him quickly."

I'm back! Just to clarify, I have not been in a state of hibernation, nor did I disappear from the face of the earth. I'm still alive and kicking. Rather, I've been doing a significant amount of reading and research in order to write my next series of posts. Having recently taken an interest in the Balkans, I just finished reading all 706 pages of Misha Glenny's The Balkans. This project is part of my general interest in non-Western imperialism, as well as the forgotten white victims of imperialism.
In the eyes of critics of Western civilization, white Western history is a mere litany of colonial crimes committed against noble brown and black people. From the Crusades to the war in Iraq, it would seem that relations between the East and West have always been characterized by white depredations.
Of course, those who haven't been brainwashed by anti-white propaganda know that such a view of history is incredibly simplistic and just plain incorrect. There have been numerous instances in world history that have involved non-whites invading, subjugating, and enslaving various parts of white Europe. Middle Eastern and Central Asian peoples such as the Huns, Arabs, Mongols, Barbary pirates, and Turks have all played their part in disturbing the peace within the white continent. The violence and conquests of the Huns resulted in the displacement of various Germanic tribes, which played a significant role in the collapse of Western Rome. The Arabs ultimately failed to subjugate all of Europe, and it wasn't for a lack of trying. Had they not been stopped at Tours and Constantinople, they could have overrun the entire continent. The Mongols slaughtered countless people and also spread the black death from Asia to Europe, which decimated a third of the continent's population. Barbary pirates from North Africa raided for white slaves as far north as Iceland, which significantly disrupted coastal life in Europe. The Tartars likewise took slaves from Russia and Eastern Europe.
However, none of those groups left a legacy as negative as the Turks. Ruling a significant chunk of Europe that extended all the way to Austria's doorstep, the Turks are in many ways responsible for the various problems, demographic and otherwise, that continue to afflict the Balkans. The history of the Ottoman occupation of the Balkans provides several very instructive lessons.
For starters, Ottoman rule should put to rest the tired notion that Eastern and Islamic societies were "tolerant." I've frequently seen various postcolonial and liberal scholars argue that in comparison to Europe, the Islamic world was tolerant and open towards different groups of people. Of course, that depends on how you define "tolerance." From a purely technical standpoint, the Ottomans and other Muslim rulers were indeed tolerant, if by "tolerant" you mean a willingness to endure and put up with people you don't particularly like. For the most part, Muslims did not commit massacres and more or less allowed their subjects to practice their religion and live quietly.
However, the word "tolerance" in today's Western imagination conjures up images of equality, egalitarianism, mutual respect, integration, and full acceptance. I suspect that various apologists for Middle Eastern/Muslim imperialism are aware of this, and describe Islamic empires as "tolerant" as a means of downplaying the less savory aspects of those societies. It's also their way of branding Europe as "intolerant."
Using today's idea of "tolerance," the Ottoman Empire's rule over the white Christian peoples of Balkans was most certainly not tolerant in any sense. For starters, Ottoman rule enforced and encouraged segregation between the various millets. Members of millets were classified solely based on their religion, ethnicity, language, and culture be damned (more on this later). As Misha Glenny illustrates, the attitude of Muslims towards non-Muslims would be regarded as very un-PC in today's climate:
"There were 'countless traditions urging the Muslims to distinguish themselves, even in appearance, from the infidels and to avoid imitating their habits in dress as well as all else…The turban is the barrier separating belief and unbelief'. 'He who imitates a people, becomes one of them.'
(page 72)
Well, at least they wouldn't have been accused of "cultural appropriation" or "hipster racism." The indigenous Christians were also subjected to a variety of daily humiliations and injustices that make today's complaints about "microaggressions" seem very trivial and whiny by comparison. Christians were forced to dismount from their horses in the presence of a Muslim, were forbidden to bear arms, and were not permitted to own land. Christian testimony against Muslims was invalid, and Muslims who murdered Christians were merely required to pay a modest "blood tax" to the murdered Christian's family. Needless to say, a Christian who murdered a Muslim would face a much stiffer penalty. Christian families were also subjected to the practice known as devsirme, where their children were forcibly taken from them in order to serve the empire in either a military or administrative setting.
In so many words, non-Muslims in the Ottoman Empire were "tolerated" so long as they kept their heads low and knew their place. Minorities certainly wouldn't have been allowed to make waves, agitate against the Muslim majority, or enjoy university departments dedicated to deconstructing "Muslim privilege." They also lived segregated from the dominant Muslim group, and always had to demonstrate their inferiority in the presence of Muslims. Sounds a lot like another social system that once existed in the Deep South of a certain North American country.
Since so many anti-Western types love to emphasize the tolerance and peacefulness of traditional non-Western Islamic societies compared to the West, perhaps we could learn from the noble Islamic example. Perhaps the West should impose its own version of the millet system to govern relations between whites and non-whites. Sure, non-whites will be legally inferior to whites and forced to endure repeated humiliations, but at least there will be "peace" and "tolerance." Do you honestly think for a second that today's leftists who treat every "microaggression" as a crime against humanity would want to live as non-Muslims in a millet type system? Of course not.
However, the daily injustices and humiliations aside, the most disastrous legacy of Ottoman rule in the Balkans was the volatile demographic balance bequeathed to the region by the aforementioned millet system:
"For the Ottomans, nationhood meant religious affiliation, so that Bosnian, Turkish, and Albanian Muslims, for example, would all speak different languages and enjoy widely different cultural traditions but would still be part of the same 'nation'…As far as the religious hierarchies and the Ottoman state were concerned, religion always took precedence over culture, language and race in defining one's identity."
(page 71)
While it's fashionable to denounce race as a "social construct," it's even more foolish and dangerous to treat religion as a group's primary identity. When the Ottoman Empire was wealthy and strong, the segregation and stagnancy promoted by the millet system was of little concern. However, as various national and ethnic groups in the Balkans began to assert themselves amid the empire's decay, the empire's overemphasis on religion proved to be catastrophic for the region. The empire's late and lame attempt to promote "Ottomanism," which transcended religion and ethnicity, did nothing to cure the demographic tinderbox left in the region by the Turks. It never had a prayer of winning the loyalty of numerous competing groups. It was only a matter of time before the different peoples of the Balkans turned on one another following the end of Turkish rule.
I intend for this post to permanently refute the idea that Eastern empires such as the Ottomans were "tolerant." I also intend to challenge the narrative of imperialism that situates whites as the sole aggressors, while ignoring the millions of white Europeans who lived under the yoke of non-white imperialism for five centuries. Finally, I also hope this post illustrates that one does not so easily ignore race and ethnicity. The future tragedies caused by the neglect and ignorance promoted by the millet system should be a warning to us all. One must always look at race, ethnicity, and culture when analyzing a conflict between peoples, and not treat "Muslims" or "Christians" as virtual ethnic groups.
My next post will focus on crimes committed against the Balkans by various European imperial powers, and the forgotten white victims of European imperialism.
Stay tuned.

The Good Son Fires Up the Oven for Detroit-Style Pizza on Colfax
Detroit Rock City pizza at the Good Son.
Mark Antonation
The U Baron Group, which operates the Silvi's Kitchen restaurants in the metro area (along with all of the other former Udi's eateries and bakeries), closed the Colfax Silvi's last fall with plans to reopen with a new name and theme. Tomorrow the Baron family will open the Good Son, featuring Detroit-style pizza and a playful menu that walks the line between healthy, Mediterranean-inspired dishes and noshable bar food. CEO Etai Baron explains that he and his family wanted to turn the space into something more location-specific, and so developed the Good Son's theme around the idea of later hours; a smaller, more focused, bar-friendly menu; and a drinks program that encompasses local craft beer, kegged wine and a house cocktails.
The Good Son takes its name from the translation from French of Bonfils, since the Art Moderne building that now houses the restaurant — and the neighboring Tattered Cover Bookstore — was originally called the Bonfils Memorial Theater when it opened in 1953 (and was later renamed the Lowenstein Theater). In keeping with the theater motif, Baron worked with multi-media artist Zoe Rayor to redesign the dining room's decor. Whimsical and evocative drawings, paintings, manipulated photographs, shadowboxes and sculptural elements adorn the walls and tables of the long, narrow space to conjure a fictional history of stage performance and the character of the Good Son (who is depicted slyly sipping a beverage in an ornate picture frame above one of the cushy leather booths). "We had a great time working with Zoe," say Baron. "It's a combination of original work and up-cycling."

Mark Antonation
The menu is a combination of bakery-inspired eats built around pizza dough and focaccia formulated by the group's bread master, Maurizio Negrini, and smaller bites and salads with Mediterranean and Middle Eastern touches typical of executive chef Sylvi Baron's repertoire. "The steel pans are what make Detroit pizza unique," Etai Baron points out, noting that the origins of the style trace back to Detroit cooks who used steel auto-parts trays to bake the rectangular pies.
"We had the dough figured out," adds Baron. "So then: How do we crisp it? How do we top it?" The Good Son's pizza pans started life as bread pans in the family's bakery and so have years of seasoning. Unlike standard deck-oven pizzas, these — with Motor City-based names like the Delorean, the Tom Selleck and the MC5 — are baked in the Good Son's oak-fired oven at 700 degrees to achieve an almost fried texture, with caramelized cheese around the edges.
The Curtain Call, made with blueberry-infused bourbon.
Mark Antonation
The kitchen, headed by chef de cuisine Dave Axelrod, uses that wood-burning oven to turn out roasted and baked dishes that build layers of flavor with unique ingredients. A big head of roasted cauliflower comes doused with tahini sourced from Turkey and sided with spicy green harissa (actually a Yemeni condiment called skhug), while a warm kale salad gets a topping of roasted Jerusalem artichokes and hazelnuts. Hot sandwiches are built on house-baked rosemary focaccia and include combinations for meat lovers and vegetarians alike.
Blue-plate specials available after 5 p.m. on most nights run from burgers to catfish to chicken and waffles made from croissant dough. And although the Good Son is courting a dinner and late-night crowd, it hasn't forgotten about East High School across the street, so there's also an East High lunch special featuring a one-topping slice and a drink for $4.50. Desserts come from pastry chef Jason Lebeau, "a veteran, a lifer, the toughest pastry chef I've ever met," says Baron.
Along with theater-themed specialty drinks (with names like the Vince Vaughan and the Curtain Call), the Good Son's beer program comprises nearly twenty draft beers, one of which is a house IPA brewed by Crazy Mountain Brewery, and another three dozen or so in bottles, including many Belgians; there's hardly a macro in the bunch. Beer flights are also available in a series of four smaller pours.
Those familiar with the original layout at Sylvi's will notice that one wall has been knocked down to extend the dining room on the north end. Booths have been reconfigured (there's even a private alcove with a curved banquette) and red, zebra-themed wallpaper has been hung on the narrow ends of the rectangular space. If that wallpaper looks familiar, its an exact replica of the paper in Margo's bathroom from Wes Anderson's The Royal Tenenbaums.
The Good Son's official opening is Tuesday, March 24, and the restaurant will be open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Thurdsay and 11 a.m. to midnight on Friday and Saturday, with weekend brunch service slated to begin in May.

Occupy Denver profile: Jim Andresen is the loudest person in Civic Center Park
Everyone at Occupy Denver has a story, but James Andresen's might well be the loudest. The animated 58-year-old doesn't share his story as much as he shouts it, a habit developed after a lifetime of working with power tools took a toll on his hearing. It is with a born-and-raised New York accent that he is shouting, this time at a pedestrian, about why Denver belongs to both of them. It's a big city, after all.
"You people are ruining Denver!' a man with a walker yells at Andresen, who is sitting on a white plastic tub near the corner of Broadway and 14th. His pace makes it impossible for him to dodge the repercussions, but he continues nonetheless. "This is my city!"
Andresen stands, and his normal speaking voice is equal to if not louder than his new audience's. "It's my city, too! What did you think this was? The Bowery in New York?"
Jim Andresen joined Occupy Denver in time to help build the group's first kitchen tent.
Kelsey Whipple
Although the conversation, if you can call it that, dies off, it's never long before Andresen returns again to the topic of New York City. The man spent forty years of his life there, and both his accent and most of his stories constantly return to the city where he grew up, married and was divorced by the same Puerto Rican Pentecostal woman... twice. (He can't explain this, but he shares it openly -- and, of course, loudly.)

"People ask me why I'm kooky, or they ask me what's wrong with me, and I tell them that I raised four daughters," Andresen says. When one of his stories veers close to its punchline, he transforms into a human toy, so wound up that he can no longer sit -- which means in this moment he has just thrown his water bottle on the ground and is pretending to pull out his hair. "I tell them that I lived with five ladies and the fifth was the craziest. Someone told me I shouldn't say 'ex-wife' -- I don't know why -- so I tell them my ex-woman did this to me." Later, he would marry another, though he's not entirely sure if they're still married.
In the four months prior to his move-in date at Occupy Denver, Andresen lived near the Platte, and in the year and a half prior to that, he camped in the mangroves in Key West, sometimes in his bathing suit, sometimes naked. Gray is creeping up the sides of Andresen's head toward the center of his hair, and his face, lined with deep cracks, is a dark tan. When he is at his most emboldened, at the peak of his volume, gold teeth peek out from the recesses of his mouth.
When he talks about his second wife, they wave. "I learned that you can't fix everything early on in life, though sometimes I think you might not be able to fix anything at all," he says. "To make a long story short, she was involved in the Mexican mafia, and I had to leave her and that world of organized crime three years ago."
The actual long story behind that short one is complicated, but what's more important is the idea that Andresen, who worked his entire adult life as a contractor specializing in remodeling and restoration, has spent the last three years of his life with no income and no home rather than return to the daily grind. Not all who occupy the space between 14th and Colfax on Broadway do so for purely political reasons, and Andresen has opted out of most of them. His focus, he says, is on basic human rights. The focus is surprisingly political for someone who says he isn't.
"I was attracted to this place by the basic essentials: food and clothing," Andresen says. He has lived with the group since the first Thunderdome, which he helped to build. "I gave up on the world a long time ago, and if the politics ended tomorrow, I'd be fine with it. There are a handful of us who only care about the needs of the people, and I say we're just as important as the rest."

How To Excellently Pass Your Cisco Certifications
In order to be able to obtain a lucrative job in the IT field, you must pass the cisco certifications for network professional's examination. This crucial test will prove to prospective employers that you possess an adequate amount of skills to be able to work for their company. To date, IT jobs are considered to be one of the fastest and most plentiful jobs in the workforce market.
The exam will touch base on basic things that a student should have learned while taking a course that relates to Cisco products. The exam will test the student's skills on configuring, installing and troubleshooting local and large networks that contain at least one hundred to five hundred different nodes at one time.
A student that passes one of these pre-qualifying tests will demonstrate that they have the skills to manage different switches and routers that are typically found within large network places. The exams actually incorporate four different tests together into one. Students must be able to pass all four tests within this field to be able to obtain their single certification.
The good thing about this particular course is it is offered in both an online and an offline setting. However, be aware that if you are going to take this course online that you will still need to engage in some hands on activities that show you how to successfully manage large scale networks on your own. The hands on experience is critical to receiving a passing score on these examinations.
If you are having trouble passing all of these tests, do not fret you are not alone in your struggle. There are a lot of websites online that are dedicated to providing students with the extensive study guide materials that they will need to review over before they attempt to take one of these certification examinations.
Most of the seminars will last for ten to twelve hours at a time. Therefore, not only is taking this class a difficult thing to do, but passing the certification test is also considered to be difficult also. Students who fail any of the tests will generally be given a second chance to retake the portion of the examination that they were unable to pass.
Most learning institutions are willing to provide students with some funds to take the certification test the first time. However, if the students fail to successfully pass the string of exams, they may be forced to have to pay for the remaining tests out of their own pockets.

The Benefits of Gardening
Creating and tending to a garden has many health benefits for the human body. Especially when you start by envisioning the initial concept in your mind and then bringing it to fruition. It should include lots of seasonal plants with visually appealing components.
Here are just a few of the benefits of gardening on your body:
It might not be the most intense form of exercise, but gardening will offer the unique opportunity to burn quite a few calories. Clearly, the longer that you spend outside in the garden the more calories that will be burned. And the repetitive motion of bending down to pull weeds will help to strengthen the lower back muscles. Exercise is a critical part of maintaining good overall health.
Mental Health
Since the outdoor garden is located outside, it is a great way to be in the open fresh air for extended periods of time. Breathing in fresh air is good for the lungs and also for the brain. It is cleansing for both body parts for clean fresh air to enter the body and tends to raise a person's spirits. It helps to settle any worries and create a feeling of hope. Also going outside and allowing direct sunlight be absorbed by the skin is a good way to enhance vitamin consumption. What warms the skin also warms the soul.
Fresh Food
Having a garden means that there will be fresh raw ingredients to work with and ultimately to eat. Fresh whole foods are far healthier for the human body than ones that are grown using pesticides and chemicals commercially. They provide the essential vitamins and minerals that are needed to maintain optimal health. Eating highly processed foods can lead to chronic health problems. They are generally filled with large amounts of sodium and sugar that can contribute to or create heart problems and obesity.
The motions that are required in gardening help support a person's improved flexibility. The bending and reaching out to pull weeds also is great for being able to hold your balance which is important as the person ages. Using a hoe to chop weeds will strengthen the arms and torso and thusly will also strengthen the heart. Strong muscles contribute to strong bones also. As a person ages their overall strength and flexibility will decrease and it will increase the risk of broken bones as muscles give way.
As you can see, there are many benefits of gardening. They range from physical health all the way to improved mental health. It would serve you well to try out gardening for yourself and see how well it works for you. It does not matter if the garden is a large one or a small one, they both provide equal advantages. The most important part is that it is located outside, so that the benefits of fresh air and sunshine can be appreciated in proportion.

Lovers Enjoying at Chennai Marina Beach
Chennai Marina Beach
Marina Beach is a natural urban beach in the city of Chennai, India, along the Bay of Bengal. The beach runs from near Fort St. George in the north to Foreshore Estate in the south, a distance of 6.5 km (4.0 mi), making it the longest natural urban beach in the country and the world's first longest natural urban beach. The Marina is primarily sandy, unlike the short, rocky formations that make up the Juhu Beach in Mumbai. The average width of the beach is 300 m (980 ft) and the width at the widest stretch is 437 m (1,434 ft). Bathing and swimming at the Marina Beach are legally prohibited because of the dangers, as the undercurrent is very turbulent. It is one of the most crowded beaches in the country and attracts about 30,000 visitors a day during weekdays and 50,000 visitors a day during the weekends and on holidays. During summer months, about 15,000 to 20,000 people visit the beach daily.
Before the 16th century, there were frequent incident of inundation of land near the coast due to rise in sea level. When the sea withdrew, several ridges and lagoons were left behind. On the southern side of Fort St. George, one such sand ridge ran from the mouth of the Cooum to the present site of the Presidency College. On the rear side of the ridge was a huge depression on which the college grounds were later developed. The ridge is the site of the present-day beach. When Fort St. George was built in 1640, the sea was too close to the fort. The building of the harbour near the fort resulted in sand accretion to the south of the fort and the harbour and the sea, which was washing the ramparts of the fort, moved afar at about 2.5 km away from the fort creating a wide beach between the land and the sea.
Before the Madras harbour was built, the beach was just a strip of mud, teeming with mudskippers. The beach washed up close to the present day road for a long time until the harbour was built in 1881. Mountstuart Elphinstone Grant Duff, the governor of Madras from 1881 to 1886, who was captivated by the beach on an earlier visit to the city in the late 1870s, conceived and built the promenade along the beach in 1884 by extensively modifying and layering with soft sand. He also christened it the Madras Marina in the same year. Since the early 19th century, a number of public buildings were constructed fronting the beach.
Ever since the harbour was built, the area south of the port has accreted significantly, forming the present day's beach mainly due to the presence of wave breakers laid for the construction of the harbour, although the coast in the northern region has undergone severe erosion. Eventually, the north-drifting current widened the beach to its present extent. The beach was formed as a result of arresting the littoral drift by the port's breakwater. The area of the beach is increasing 40 sq m every year due to progradation.
Since the creation of the promenade in 1884, there were several additions along the stretch. The country's first aquarium was established as one of the first additions in 1909. Shortly after the Independence, the Triumph of Labour statue and the Gandhi statue in 'march to Dandi' stride, which has been duplicated on the lawns of the Parliament House, were erected on the beach. In 1968, a number of statues of icons of Tamil literature was erected to mark the first World Tamil Conference, including Avvaiyar, Tiruvalluvar, Kambar, Subramania Bharathiyar, Bharathidasan and the Europeans Bishop Caldwell, G.U. Pope and Veeramunivar. Anna memorial was built in 1970 and the MGR memorial in 1988, shortening the stretch at its northern end. More recent additions include the statues of Kamaraj and Shivaji Ganesan

Negril was everything I had hoped for and then some. We stayed at Xtabi in a cliff side cottage and loved it. Our cottage was great, and all the staff were so accommodating.
Great fun things to do....snorkel with famous Vincent...he is a local that goes up and down the cliff offering snorkel trips.
We decided to go one morning with another couple that we met at the resort. We packed our towels and a few redstripes and off we went. There were about ten of us snorkeling. Vincent actually was in the water with us and showed us all kinds of incredible sea creatures. On the way, back we and the other couple decided to rent Vincent for the rest of the day. We stopped back at Xtabi got more redstripe and headed down the coast toward and wayyy past Negril lighthouse. We went exploring inside of caves with the boat, stopped for beer runs...dove overboard and swam when we got hot. Vincent was fun, knowledgeable and a great tour guide.
This day was one of my favorite. It was also a great price. He asked for 80 dollars a couple. That meant a total of 160 dollars...what a GREAT bargain we ended up giving him a great tip as well.
Another day we hired a local taxi cab driver, Kingsley to take us to the waterfalls, a fishing village and the rum plantation. We left at 8 am and didn't return til eight at night. We drove over the mountains, went to Kingsley's hometown, and just got to know so much about the Jamaican Culture. It was a blast.
We also spent a few days walking seven mile beach and trying many of the local bars/ restaurants/ walked through the craft market..Some great woodcarvings there.
Went to the duty free shopping mall across from Kuyaba enjoyed shopping but got thirsty and ordered a red stripe at the open café there and were shocked to pay 4 dollars for it. Especially when you can get one for under 2 dollars along the beach.
One day we parasailed, it is like being a kite in the air and the view was breathtaking.
We also enjoyed a sunset cruise on the wild thing. There are just so many things to do or not do depending on your mood.
Another day we sat ourselves in lounge chairs at Kuyaba and sipped tropical drinks..
As for the food, we ate at a lot of different place…some pricey some dirt-cheap.
I had the best Lobster Thermadore ever, at Kuyaba...a little pricey for Jamaica ($24 dollars) but worth every bite.
We ate a 3 dives twice the food was good and the atmosphere very laid back and refreshing.
We went to Ricks (the day we were out in Vincent's boat....he brought us there told us we should go have a drink and he would wait for us in the boat in the cove. As there was no place to dock a boat). It was really quite incredible...but drinks WAY over priced.
We ate at LTU Pub and the food was great.
Rockhouse dinner was romantic and very good, but pricey.
Sips and bite had great Jerk chicken
Sweet Spice had super food…no alcohol.
Just Natural is a cute open-air restaurant on the street side near Xtabi with good food.
The two things that I would not do again would be
the RhinoTours(2 man boats ) It was really choppy the day(actually too choppy to really enjoy them ) we were to take these from the beach to the cliffs, and the guides decided that we would have to stay along the beach side because of the waves.
We also did the black river safari which was ok but not worth the ride or the money.
All in all Jamaica was a wonderful trip. I had some concerns regarding being approached by venders as we walked on the beach, but it was minimal and if you said no thanks, they did not badger you. I cannot say enough for how kind, caring and helpful the people were.

Band BiographyEdit
Yesterdays New Quintet is a jazz-based moniker for the man of a million names, Otis Jackson Jr., better known as Madlib. The side-project for the rap oriented Madlib started in 2001 during experimentation in Stone Throw's famed Bomb Shelter studio in the basement of producer Peanut Butter Wolf's home. Endless hours were spent recording live instrumentation by Jackson, mainly electronic keyboards, drums, vibes and bass, then sampled and restructured. The resulting music is a laid back blend of jazz, funk and hip-hop that easily appeals to fans of all three genres. The group is made up of four ficticious characters, Monk Hughes, Ahmad Miller, Malik Flavors and Joe McDuphrey, all of which have releases under their names.
The first full-length, 2001's Angles Without Edges, set the bar, establishing the vibe of smoke-filled late night jazz clubs with an unassuming house band providing music for no one in particular. 2002's official follow-up, Stevie, kept the mood, highlighting the unparalleled keyboard work of Stevie Wonder with cuts mostly from Innervisions, Songs in the Key of Life and Fullfillingness. The next album was a tribute as well, this time to the late jazz-funk pioneer Weldon Irvine under the moniker Monk Hughes & The Outer Realm. This time the music was much more in-your-face; Tribute to Weldon is an hour and 20 minutes of unceasing and raucous jazz and funk that does justice to the phrase, "wall of sound."
There has been no new of a new album in 2006 under any of the YNQ moniker's, though Madlib has many other projects on deck.
