It started like most Saturdays. I couldn't sleep passed 5:30am. Go figure, on the weekdays all I want to do is sleep 5 more minutes, but on the weekends when I have nowhere to go I can't sleep in. Oh Well, so I got up, made some coffee and did some dishes. After I did that, I surfed the web a bit, then my phone buzzed. It was a reminder that I made an appointment with the San Diego County Blood Bank to give blood at 11:15 am.
After seeing Janie off to work, I took a shower did a few other things, then off I went to give blood. It was at their facility in Sabre Springs which is just down the road. I went in filled out some paperwork and in about 15 minutes, I was ready to give blood. I was nervous, because needles tend to freak me out a bit. I entered this ward with about 8 chairs built for giving blood. These chairs looked like they could be used for lethal injections. They didn't calm my nerves. There were a few other people in there wrapping up their sessions. One particular overweight woman who needed help to get out of her chair caught my attention, because they seemed to be a little bit concerned about her.
The people exited the ward and sat at these tables just outside the opening. I could see three roundtables where they all were sitting at having juice and cookies. There were two ladies and a little girl at one table, and the overweight woman and another woman at another table. The little girl seemed to be having a fun time, talking with what looked to be her mom and a friend, while the overweight woman seemed to be trying to get her bearings.
While they were waiting the obligatory 15 minutes after giving blood, I was getting prepped. After putting the needle in me, the nurse took a few vials of blood. She kept adjusting the needle, which really didn't feel too pleasant. I really wanted her to get it straight and just leave it. She finally got it right, and all of a sudden there was this screech, boom, and an "Oh my!"
The overweight woman collapsed off of the chair. Her chin was on the table, and her knees were on the floor. Then she fell backward onto the ground. The staff rushed over to her to help. The little girl looked somewhat amused by this sudden happening.
The staff got some towels and placed them under her head so she could relax a bit until she had enough strength to get up. When she did have enough strength, they wheeled her back into the ward and helped her on to one of the lethal injection chairs. I overheard her talking with the staff as if this wasn't the first time this has happened after giving blood. This really didn't help my nerves any.
After I was done, they gave me some juice and cookies and had me sit in that little area to wait about 15 minutes. When I got there, the other women were in the process of leaving, and they were saying their goodbyes to the little girl. Apparently, her mom was the one who collapsed, and she had just met the other women today at the blood bank. Mira is this skinny little blond girl who was about 4 years old and has no fear.
As soon as those women left, she started talking to me. Her head and eyes were wandering around the waiting area discovering her surroundings as she said it frightens her when her mommy falls like that. She said her mom falls all the time and that she's building her muscle by helping her stay up. She even flexed for me to prove it. It was a little hard to see her muscles through her well worn red sweater that looked like it may be her favorite. I just took her word for it.
She was downright hilarious, but, contrary to what I thought when her mom first collapsed, she was very concerned about her mom. Mira would every so many moments, cut off our conversation and wonder over to check on her mom to see she was alright. Then she would come back and jump into the conversation right where we left off.
She told me that she wasn't ready to be her mommy's mommy. Mira also told me that her mom stores a lot of goodies in her purse. She said those goodies gave her mommy another side to her as she put her hand flat and perpendicular to her waist in a shelf like position. Mira was basically saying that her mom's hips were like shelves due to her eating habits. I couldn't help but chuckle. This was very observant for such a young girl.
She then showed me, what used to be a cut underneath her pinkie. It was about the size of a flea. She said it doesn't hurt anymore, but it still resembles the same color as her butt after her mommy spanks her for not going to bed when she's supposed to. I can somewhat relate to her mom, because kids sometimes just don't want to go to sleep. Instead of spanking them, I think it's a better idea to let them stay up late and then feel really tired the next morning after waking up a little earlier than usual. Do this a few times, and they'll start to go to bed earlier.
All of what I was taking in did concern me a bit, because aside from the cut and the butt spanking, she kept talking about keeping her mom from falling. She was really preoccupied with it. Sadly, I think that this little bundle of energy may have to start growing up sooner than she would like. Mira's already in the habit of looking after her mom. Maybe I was reading too deep into this little girl's situation. I hope I was.
After she told me all about her adventures in keeping her mommy upright, we resorted to making silly faces at each other. She loved my patented Joker Face. It made her laugh hysterically. She sure was a fun little kid. She seemed to have a knack for making everyone smile around her. The staff just loved her, and those women with whom she was talking to before me, also seemed to get a kick out her. My wife Janie would have just loved this little girl.
I ended up staying there a bit past the mandatory 15 minutes. I think it was about a half hour. She was very entertaining. After I said my goodbyes to the staff and Mira, I couldn't help but think about that child's future. She has an incredible and infectious spirit. She reminds me a lot of what I picture my wife was like as little girl. I hope she has better parents then my wife did.

Yehuda Nachshoni's "Studies in the Weekly Parsha" (pages 1032-1033) on our Parsha Korach cites Ramban's view that the cause of the rebellions: Korach, Dasan and Aviram and the First Born's was:
The spies' severe punishment, which brought death to the generation of the desert and plague to its princes. It [the punishment]… brought to the surface all of the accumulated bitterness of the dissatisfied, who until now had not dared to come out against Moshe. Now they took advantage… to settle accounts.
One could say the event of the Miraglim brought the opening of the proverbial "Pandora's Box."
A few years ago, this author cited a Parsha HaShevua by Rabbi Scott Ressler of the Jeff Seidel Student Center asked the following:
Why would 250 people follow him to their certain death, with apparently little to gain?
Parshat Korach relates the story of Korach, Datan, Aviram and 250 members of the shevet (tribe) or Reuven challenging Moshe's choice for Kohen Gadol (high priest). The end result was that the 250 members were burned by a heavenly fire, and the other 3 were miraculously swallowed by the earth. From a motive perspective, Korach makes the most sense, because he felt slighted for not having been chosen himself. But why would 250 people follow him to their certain death, with apparently little to gain?
The answer can be found in Rashi, the great medieval commentator, who writes that just as Korach's family camped on the southern side of the Mishkan (Tabernacle), so did the tribe of Reuven. Rashi quotes the words of Chapters of the Fathers, "woe to an evil person, and woe to his neighbor." The 250 people met their death, simply because they were influenced by their neighbors! This points to the awesome influence that friends, neighbors and associates have on us.
This author then commented:
There seem to be wider ramifications to this Torah vort than only to us locally, individually and who our friends and neighbors are and how we are influenced by them and they by us; How we hold of them and they of us. These ramifications would seem, simultaneously, to affect us on a national level — not just in Israel but throughout the Jewish world.
So, What Do we learn from the 250 who rebelled, brought incense and died by Heavenly Fire?
To update what these wider ramifications could include, we must still consider how to respond to Bibi and his "2 states (sic)" capitulation, which has taken on more traction with the passage of time and Benyamin Netanyahu's reelection as prime minister. We must consider as well, the entire Oslo process, Gush Katif, building freezes — both the one a couple of years ago, and the one seeming taking shape since president Obama's March trip here. We must also consider the ramifications which could result from certain so-called "religious" political sectors now seemingly acting as "spoiled brats" (putting it mildly) threatening revenge by advocating support for give-aways of Jewish Land, because they were omitted from the governing coalition. The lessons of our parsha seem to be, that NOT EVEN attempts to "reform" IDF draft laws to make them Hareidi-inclusive justifies ANY SECTOR, religious or otherwise, rolling-over on the Land of Israel.
This author asked then, and the question still seems now:
Is it as if we all hold incense fire-pans with Bibi waiting to be burned? And for what? Kassam and Katyusha blitzes (Chas v'challila) of Ramat Beit Shemesh, Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Ben-Gurion Airport and planes making their approach to the airport?
May we, the B'nai Yisrael be zocha that our brethren — the refugee families from Gush Katif be permanently settled and be made totally whole — be totally restituted for all that was stolen from them at leftist-agendized, supreme court legalized gunpoint, that our dear brethren Jonathan Pollard and Sholom Rubashkin, as well as the other MIAs be liberated alive and returned to us in ways befitting Al Kiddush Hashem. May we have the courage and strength to stand up and physically prevent the possibility of Chas V'Challila any future eviction of Jews from their homes and the handing of Jewish land over to anyone, let alone to enemies sworn to Israel's and Judaism's destruction and eradication. May we fulfill Hashem's blueprint of B'nai Yisrael as a Unique people — an Am Segula, not to be reckoned with as with "the nations" and may we be zocha to see the Moshiach, the Ge'ula Shlaima, as Dov Shurin sings; "Ki Karov Yom Hashem V'Kol HaGoyim", the Ultimate Redemption, bim hay v'yameinu — speedily, in our time", — Achshav, Chik Chuk, Miyad, Etmol!!!
Good Shabbos!
Moshe Burt, an Oleh, is a commentator on news and events in Israel and Founder and Director of The Sefer Torah Recycling Network. He lives in Ramat Beit Shemesh.

The biggest problem on the road today is not the elderly or the young, although many are a problem.
It is the driver, oblivious to traffic, not caring for other drivers, but talking on a cellular phone. A law should be passed that anyone using such phones should park on the shoulder and not talk while driving.

When I think of a sweet indulgent brunch, its Cinnamon French Toast that springs to mind. I don't have a very sweet tooth, but cinnamon is my favourite spice and I will put it on and in almost everything 😊
What really makes this brunch special are the buttery cinnamon apples that adorn the picture above, they are Devine! I also enjoy the baked plums, but the apple is my favourite 😃
I used home baked organic bread for this recipe, but any loaf of uncut bread or very thick cut bread will do. You don't have to make both fruit side dishes, but if you do, any that are let over will keep nicely in the fridge.
Baked plums – Serves 6 65 Kcal | 0.2g fat | 14.4g Carb of which 12.4g are sugar
- 6 large plums halved and de-stoned
- 15-30g of light muscavado sugar (depending on how sweet your fruit is)
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon (see how I'm keeping the theme here 😊 )
- 2 tablespoons of orange juice
Cinnamon Apples – serves 4 123 Kcal | 6.2g Fat | 3.9g Sat fat | 17.3g Carb of which 17.3 g are Sugar
- 2 eating apples, I used Pink Lady
- 30g butter
- 30g light muscavado sugar, this gives it more of a caramel taste than other sugars.
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cinnamon French Toast – serves 2/4 197 Kcal | 7.3g Fat | 3.4g Sat fat | 23.3g Carb of which 1.7g are sugar
- 4 thick slices of white bread, about 3/4 inch thick.
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
- A dash of milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Butter for frying.
- Preheat the oven to 200C/390F/gas 6.
- Take a baking dish and place the halved plums in, cut side up.
- Pour over the orange juice, sprinkle over the sugar and cinnamon.
- Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until soft but still holding their shape.
- While the plums are cooking, melt the butter and sugar in a pan.
- Add the vanilla extract once melted.
- Peel and slice the apples into segments and add to the pan.
- Coat the apples with the sauce and cook gently, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes.
- The apples will soften but should still keep their shape.
Cinnamon Toast
- Your fruit should be about 5 minutes from being cooked.
- In a wide, flat bowl or dish, mix the eggs, vanilla, cinnamon and a dash of milk together.
- Dip the slices of bread in the egg mixture, turning to coat both sides. Don't leave them in too long or they will absorb too much of the egg mixture.
- Fry the slices of egg'd bread in a large frying pan (skillet) until golden brown.
- By now, your fruit should been cooked too. Put them aside and allow to cool slightly. You can put your cinnamon toast in the oven to keep warm while you cook all the slices.
Put your fruit into serving dishes, stack your cinnamon toast, dust with icing sugar (powder sugar) and serve immediately while still hot!
Thanks for reading and please follow if you enjoy my recipes 😊
Buon appitito!

By: Javed Chaudhry
The US Congressional Committee on Foreign Affairs recently held a meeting showing concern on target killings and human rights violations in Balochistan, the largest province of Pakistan. The disappearance of the ethnic Baloch appeared to be the main concern of the committee. It is not known if any one has reminded the committee members about the disappearance of Dr. Afia Siddiqi from Karachi several years ago as part of the war on terror. Under the pretext of the war on terror, it has been alleged that Pakistan's military administration under Gen. Musharraf has arrested hundreds of Pakistani citizens and the where about of most of them is unknown to this day. Dr. Afia Siddiqi was discovered quite accidentally by a British journalist in a CIA run prison at Bagram Airbase near Kabul, Afghanistan. Dr. Afia Siddiqi is now serving a prison term of 84 years in the USA. No one knows how and why was she kidnapped from her home in Karachi and how she ended up in a CIA prison in Afghanistan. To this day there is no word on her small children – all this happened to serve the American war on terror which was forced on Pakistan in September 2001.
After killing well over a million innocent civilians in Iraq and thousands in Libya, all of a sudden, the Americans appear to have developed a special concern for the well being of the people of Balochistan. While the Americans are showing concern for the human rights violations in Balochistan, the CIA drones continue to kill innocent people in the Pakistani tribal area of Vazirestan under the pretext of eliminating Al-Qaeda. It is worth noting here that the CIA was adamant quite recently, for deploying drones in Quetta, the capital city of Balochistan. The American congressional committees appear to be quite immune to the Indian atrocities in Kashmir which has been going on for decades. Obviously, the US has no reason to take an interest in the plight of the Kashmiris because Kashmir offers no strategic or geo-political importance to the American imperial geo-political aspirations. Also, it does not suit the Americans to raise the question of human rights in Kashmir with India, their new best friend in South East Asia. Balochistan, on the other hand, being the Gateway to the Central Asia can offer several strategic benefits to the American stretegic plans in the region. The struggle to conquer and to control the route from Arabian Sea to the Caspian region, dubbed as the Great Game, has been played for over 150 years by the Russians and the British Empire, and now being played by the Americans.
In order to realize full benefit from Balochistan, it would be highly desirable for the US to carve the province out of Pakistan's map and install a few local puppets as the leaders just as has been done in Pakistan, Afghanistan Iraq and Libya. Regarding Balochistan, the American imperial designs may be similar to what the British East India company adopted in mid 18th century in Bengal, the eastern province of India. Mir Jaffer, a local leader joined the British forces to defeat the legitimate local government in the battle of Plassy in 1757. It appears that there are several Baloch Sardars (Chieftains) willing to repeat the historical role of Mir Jaffar of Bengal. The only difference however, is that the game would be played according to the modern neo-colonial rules; whereby the battle of Plassy would be replaced by suitable resolutions by the US congress to be followed and ratified by the UN resolutions, just as it was done to invade Afghanistan and Libya.
Blochistan has about 43% of the total Pakistani land mass with a population of only 8 million, with a literacy rate of 16%. The total population of Pakistan is about 180 million. None of the Pakistani central governments since its inception in 1947 has dealt with the Bloch issues seriously and intelligently. The rebellious and radical elements have always existed in that province on the behest of various Sardars who did not wish to give up the primitive Sardari (tribal) system purely for selfish reasons.
The bad situation became worse when KGB, assisted byIndia, created BLA (Blochistan Liberation Army) in1980s during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. The KGB plan was to create a political and administrative diversion for Pakistan in order to diminish its capacity to provide covert help to the Afghan freedom fighters fighting against the Soviets. The creation of BLA did not help the Soviets in any meaningful way but it has turned out to be a long term political headache in Blochistan against the federation of Pakistan. Due to the mismanagement of the successive Pakistan governments, the radical elements have only multiplied during the last 30 years.
The Balochistan issue has taken a new turn on the international political chessboard under the American cross-hair since 9/11. Politically and economically, Pakistan has become for all practical purposes, a country occupied by the US since September 2001, when General Musharraf, the president of Pakistan agreed to become the US ally in the invasion of Afghanistan. Gen. Musharraf was only too happy to accept the US demands in order to legitimize his own rule which he had acquired by staging a military coup against a democratically elected government. The Bush–Musharraf relationship would soon run into difficulties as Gen. Musharraf was reluctant to go along with the Bush administration on matters of supporting large scale army operations in Pakistan's tribal areas and allowing uncontrolled drone attacks.
After a few years into the invasion of Afghanistan, it became obvious that the real reason for the American invasion was not what was originally stated, the US had other, unstated geo-political plans for the region. A careful study of the US military actions taken in various countries after 9/11 clearly indicates its imperial plans to control the natural resources and the strategic routes to access the energy-rich regions. The invasion of Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya are open proofs for that while the attack on Iran is in the offing. The American invasion of Afghanistan took place under the false pretext of bringing justice to Osama bin Laden and to eliminate Al-Qaeda. According to a BBC [1] documentary, Al-Qaeda is an illusive and controversial entity, the existence of which is hard to apprehend, generally considered to be nothing more than an imaginary entity invented by the CIA.
The US wants to establish permanent military bases in Afghanistan and a direct unimpeded rout from Arabian Sea, through Balochistan and Afghanistan into Central Asia, an important source for oil and gas for the future. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to see an economically weak and politically destabilized Pakistan that would be willing to give up Balochistan or at least barter away the natural gas and mineral rights of Balochistan to offset IMF debts. That is exactly what the editor of Indian Defense Review [2] has wished for, a destabilized Pakistan. Pakistan, under a heavy debt load is steadily moving to that dreadful consequence. To this end, the Bush administration sponsored the regime change in Pakistan in order to replace Gen. Musharraf with a team that would be lot more compliant to the American wishes than Gen. Musharraf could ever be. A regime that would serve the American interests wholeheartedly compromising Pakistan's national interests at all costs rendering Pakistan a hopelessly debt ridden state ready to fall apart.
The Regime Change in Pakistan
The regime change negotiations were initiated in 2007. In 2008, the new regime under the presidency of Asif Ali Zardari took over from Gen. Musharraf. The details of the regime change are described in a recently published book by Rice [3]. The US supported government under president Zardari has obediently used Pakistan's military resources against its own people in Vaziristan and (according to WikiLeaks) has allowed the CIA to carry out drone attacks with impunity. Under the pretext of the American war on terror, the Zardari government has made the American war Pakistan's own. This action had no strategic impact on the US-NATO forces fighting in Afghanistan but has proved to be extremely disruptive for Pakistan's social life and has decimated its economy. Quite predictably, it has created numerous radical elements from Vaziristan to Balochistan, causing Pakistan's destabilization leading to a breakdown of law and order and creating a state of anarchy. The conditions are rapidly moving towards supporting a civil war leading to a possible Balkanization of Pakistan with emphasis on carving Balochistan out of Pakistan's map.
Pakistan's debt at the beginning of the present US supported Zardari regime was just over 6000 billion rupees, now after just 4 years it has reached 12000 billion and rising steadily. While serving the American interests in the region, Pakistan has lost ten times more of its own hard earned money and assets, only to receive a chicken-feed of a financial help from the US. As a result of Pakistan's participation in the American fraudulent war on terror, over 30 000 Pakistani's have lost their lives due to either the CIA drone attacks or the hundreds of terror attacks that have taken place in the country ever since the US has set foot in the region and coerced Pakistan to call the American war its own.
A brief review of Balochistan history under the British Empire
The partial destabilization in the country has provided ample opportunity for foreign powers to fund and arm BLA and hoards of other mercenaries are busy in ethnic cleansing and terrorism. Balochistan's population includes the people of various ethnic backgrounds where Baloch (including Bruhis) make about 55% while there are 30% Pashtoons and 6% Sindhis, among others.
A brief review of the history of Blochistan since the last half of the 19th century would be desirable to shed some light on the claims being made by various Bloch Sardars (tribal leaders or chieftains). The British forces in India started its aggressive military activities in the region that lies west of River Sind in order to control Afghanistan against the Russian interests – the well known political struggle popularly known as 'The Great Game'. For these activities, British forces needed a safe and trouble free enclave in Balochistan from which to launch their offensives against Afghanistan. Blochistan was divided into several small districts under various feudal Sardars (Chieftains) and warlords constantly fighting against each other to expand their territories. The British Indian Empire made contacts with Balochistan for the first time in 1839. The district of Kalat was chosen for this purpose due to its geographical location for being close to Quetta, on route to Kandahar, Afghanistan. The ruler of Kalat, Mehrab Khan refused to accommodate the British interests. British forces invaded Kalat and killed Mehrab Khan. A permanent political agent was posted in Kalat in 1854. In 1874, the British Indian government sent Sir Robert Sandeman [4] to Balochistan and a treaty with Khudadad, Khan of Kalat took place in 1876, bringing Kalat under British sovereignty. By 1887, all territories in Balochistan were declared to be under British control. In order to settle troubles between various sradars (chieftains) and the Khan of Kalat, in 1940, the territories of Kharan, Makran and Lasbela were recognized as separate minor states under the direct control of the British Political Agent [5].
Since the creation of Pakistan in 1947, the preposterous claims made by some Bloch chieftains to declare the province of Blochistan a separate state, pretending to be independent of and unaffected by the 1947 charter of is the result of inapt handling of Pakistan's successive central governments. The division (of Indian subcontinent) was on the religious basis and not on ethnic lines. The territories under the British Indian Empire were supposed to be transferred to the states of Pakistan and India, except a few princely states, such as Kashmir, Hyderabad and Gawaliar, which were given a choice to remain independent or merge with the two newly created States.
Balkanization of Pakistan
Today, the American imperial interests are no different from the British Indian Empire of 19th and 20th century. The Great Game is being rejuvenated with ever more vigor and vitality. In September 2001, the Bush administration had obtained the UN Security Counsel sanction to attack Afghanistan without providing a proof that Osama bin Laden, Al-Qaeda or Afghanistan had any involvement in the 9/11 attacks. Pakistan was coerced to join in the so called American war on terror. Pakistan army operations in its tribal area and the CIA drone attacks have created radical elements responsible for wide spread terrorism in Pakistan. Osama bin Laden is dead and as far as the existence and operation of Al-Qaeda is concerned, this illusive organization magically appears in the news only when required by the American strategic interests. The big question now is what exactly is the US doing in Afghanistan? What can it achieve now that it could not in the last 10 years? The only logical answer is that the US is testing the Afghan Taliban's patience and hoping they would allow the US to build and maintain several permanent military bases in Afghanistan to stay close to the Central Asia and defend the pipeline proposed by UNOCAL 12 years ago; the primary reason for the invasion of Afghanistan after the US negotiations broke down with the Taliban prior to the incident of 9/11.
Apart from controlling the Afghan territory, the US may also be interested in Pakistan's political destabilization leading to total anarchy and pandemonium creating an atmosphere ready for dismemberment of various provinces, especially Balochistan. With the American military bases in Afghanistan, a direct American control of Balochistan would be highly desirable to advance their plans for the global hegemony. This explains the reason for covert funding to several separatist Baloch Sardars (chieftains), the existence of numerous Baloch separatists websites and propaganda centers in several western cities, including London, New York and Toronto.
Furthermore, it would be helpful for the US to make a case to remove Pakistan's nuclear arsenal, if the country becomes a weak, destabilized and bankrupt state. Under the leadership of the American sponsored Pakistan's central government, the country and its institutions are being destroyed systematically. No positive step is being taken to control the turmoil and disorder that has been raging in Balochistan, Karachi and several other cities.
In the recent US congressional committee hearing on foreign affairs, Dr. M. Hosseinbor, a Baloch nationalist as a witness at the hearing [6] told the committee that the Baloch were natural US allies and would like to share the Gwadar Port with the United States, would not allow the Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline through their lands and will fight the Taliban as well. Naturally, he parroted what the Americans would like to hear. It is these kinds of people with short term plans and myopic thinking who once lost the whole of Indian subcontinent to the British traders, the British East India Company. There is evidence [7] that the Indian intelligence agency RAW is funding and training saboteur in Balochistan from their various consulates in Afghanistan.
There are only a handful of Baloch Sardars (chieftains) who are demanding for separation. A very large percentage of Balochistan population is illiterate and traditionally follow their tribal chieftains. The Pashtoons and others who make up 45% of Balochistan's population do not support the separation movement.
In Balochistan, the anarchy is escalating to a level that once existed in East Pakistan just before it broke away to become Bangladesh. Once again the Punjabi Army is being blamed for the troubles brewing in Balochistan. It should be interesting to note that the size of Pakistan armed forces is about 550,000 personnel. The number of Punjabis in the armed forces is 56% of the total while the population of Punjabi speaking people in Pakistan is about 65%-70%.
General Kyani, the chief of army staff has categorically denied any army operations taking place in Balochistan. There are several organized militant groups operating [8] in Balochistan creating the turmoil, such as: Balochistan Liberation Army, Baloch Republican Army and Balochistan Liberation Front.
Inferences and Way Forward
It is important to recognize that crisis arising from religious or ethnic disparities cannot be resolved by force. Structured dialog in good faith is a pre-requisite to negotiate through differences with honor and fairness. The rebel Baloch Sardars should be invited for negotiations or legal actions should be taken if they continue to disrupt life in Balochistan and elsewhere.
It is important to bear in mind that the Baloch make hardly 3% of the total population of Pakistan. They cannot be allowed to blackmail the 97% of the total population in their secessionist movement at gun-point in an attempt to carve out 43% of the total Pakistan land mass. It is nevertheless, important to pay attention to their grievances and reasonable demands; they should be dealt with fairness as any other segment of Pakistan's population in any other province. There are no parallels between Balochistan and East Pakistan.
In order to create local disturbance, some Baloch Sardars are attempting to close down the Chamlang coal mines to make 75000 workers unemployed. All such efforts must be opposed strongly by the central government.
For Pakistan's own peace and stability, it must distance itself from the American fraudulent war on terror and declare it's neutrality in the US invasion of Afghanistan. The participation in this war has cost Pakistan much too much for its economy and has created social, ethnic and provincial strife.
Pakistan should open the American container traffic through its territory, but must charge a tariff for the use of the facility.
Pakistan must stop the CIA drone attacks in Vazeristan or anywhere on its territory. It is high time for Pakistanis to take appropriate action against the government or all those individuals who compromise Pakistan's national interests.
Industrial projects, especially the mining of natural resources and exploration test drilling for oil must be started in Balochistan offering first priority for employment and contract work to the people of the province. Appropriate changes must be introduced in the constitution of Pakistan to recognize the federation as the owner of all the natural resources with a right to delegate the management of the resource to the province of the origin where appropriate. The overall national federation income must be distributed among all the provinces with full equity and fairness.
Pakistan must get rid of the rental power plants and immediately try to procure cheaper electricity from wherever possible. The country has got to put its people back to work which was interrupted by the American war and the related consequences.
The recently held US congressional committee hearing on Balochistan should leave no doubt for speculation that severing Balochistan from Pakistan would be a desirable step for the US imperial design in support of The Great Game.

It's Wise Wednesday!
Today's Motivational Minute is…
On this Wise Wednesday, be mindful that sometimes good ideas or good opportunities are not what God has in store for us. He wants you to have the best. Everything that comes your way will not always be bad. There may come a time when you will have to walk away from what seems like a really good opportunity. And it is, but it's not the best opportunity for you.
Sometimes your great could be clouded by a 'good' distraction, and then your best could be clouded by a 'great' opportunity or distraction. Ask God to give you the wisdom to know the difference. Sometimes we get distracted by how good or great things 'appear to be,' forgetting that we are still settling because they aren't the best. Don't Settle!
YOUR TURN… on this Wise Wednesday, tell me, have you ever been offered or given the opportunity to take advantage of something really good only to find that after turning it down there was something even better waiting for you?

- Mrs. Bear Cheese Pie
- 6 years ago
- Wedding: September 2013
I recently sent my ladies a "will you be my bridesmaid" card [so far in advance because two have to travel across the country, and I wanted to give them time to save]. Here is what the card looked like:
And here is the back of one I sent to one lovely lady. Each had differen questions personalized for each woman, but they all had the same last line 😉
All my ladies have since said yes, but Priscilla was so sweet as to send me her own card back! I was so pleasantly surprised to see a card show up in the mail. I just had to share.
She answered every question I asked her on her card 🙂
She wrote me a really sweet little note too, but I'm keeping that private. This was the back of the note.
I definitely made the right choice in the people I asked. I'm so excited they'll be next to me on my big day!

Ready to save $1000s on Email Marketing?
This is going to save you $7000 in Email Marketing Software Costs! TRUST ME!
Welcome to Mautic, the world's first Open Source Marketing Automation software. Mautic is an open source marketing automation software that is simple yet very powerful.
It automates email, score leads, and segment audiences. Basically what that means is it allows you to create workflows for your subscribers.
If you don't know what all that means, don't worry. You will eventually if you are doing anything online in a serious way.
"Build relationships, not links" – Scott Wyden Kivowitz11111
What is Marketing Automation?
Let me explain this to you using an example.
Let's take for example John and Mark who both subscribed to my newsletter. Both wanted to my "starting a blog checklist", but got it from different places on my website. John got it from an article about starting a blog, while Mark got it from my homepage.
When they opt in, I will tag both of them as interested in blogging, but also give them separate tags. Next, John downloaded his immediately, but Mark didn't.
So I can target Mark again to ask him why he didn't and give him another chance to download his checklist.
As time goes by, I will send them emails and I will keep track of who is interacting with me and who is not, that's called lead scoring.
However, one day I decided to give a 90% discount to my most active tribe members, those who opened and interacted with me the most!
Based on how John and Mark have been interacting with my emails, I can target the most active one of the two and send a completely different offer to the other.
What is Mautic?
Mautic is an open source marketing automation platform with a ton of features competing with the likes of HubSpot, Pardot, and Silverpop.
Many of those commercial products are hosted (so you can't modify them easily) and extraordinarily expensive (trust me, they really are very expensive especially when you are just getting started).
This is also not to mention that Mautic allows you to do things better than normal email service providers like GetResponse, Aweber (I hate AWeber with all my heart!), and even MailChimp!
The real power of Mautic comes when integrated with Amazon SES, a service that allows you to send emails for much cheaper than any other email service provider, and has a deliverability rate better than all the above!
Mautic Marketing Automation is beautifully elegant! It allows you to do things the same way GetDrip.co does but in a much robust way.
This post is about how to set up mautic, but if you want a basic version, you can check out the official page here.
How to set up Mautic Marketing Automation!
Now that you know the basics of Marketing Automation, let's dive into what this post is all about: how to set up Mautic!
Step 1: Create a sub-domain for Mautic (optional) + Email Addresses
The way I like to do it is first to create a sub-domain of my website.
The reason I like making sub-domains is that I don't want WordPress to conflict with the Mautic directory, and to also allow myself to access Mautic from a subdomain that is different from my website.
To do that, head over to your cPanel, and go to subdomains.
Once you click on create, you should see a page similar to this:
You can use either yoursite.com/mautic or mautic.yoursite.com. So to be honest, it's all really a personal preference.
Next, we will create two email addresses. One will be one that you send from, and the second will be the bounces email address.
Your email address is what you send from, and what you receive replies from. While the bounces email address is pretty much when someone wants to unsubscribe from your list, or when the email address doesn't exist.
So, for example, I would create the following two emails:
Keep note of your passwords because you will need them soon.
Step 2: Install Mautic
Installing Mautic is very easy. I will show you my favorite way to install it which is through Softaculous.
First head over to your Softaculous area in cPanel.
On the left sidebar, search for "Mautic". It should show the image below. Click on it.
On the Mautic landing page inside Softaculous, click "Install".
Fill in your information accordingly.
Once the installation is successful, you can now head over to your Mautic Installation.
Congratulations! Now Mautic is successfully installed! It's time to configure the settings so we can start sending emails to our subscribers.
Configuring Mautic Marketing Automation
Now that Mautic is Installed, It's time to configure it! The first thing we will do is log in to Mautic in the directory or subdomain we specified earlier.
The login Screen looks like this:
and that should lead us to the dashboard. On the Mautic Dashboard, click on the icon in the top right corner:
That should open a sidebar. Click on "configuration":
Once the configuration dashboard opens, click on email settings:
The first thing we need to do is fill the "Mail Send Settings". Simply fill out your information.
The "service to send mail through" can be kept on "PHP Mail" for now, but it's not recommended for when you actually start sending emails. It's just temporary and we will change it in few.
Next move on to the "monitored inbox settings" section on the same page. Fill out the details for the bounces and unsubscribes email address that we created earlier!
First, enter the details of your bounces email address. Then click on "test connection and fetch folders" like the screenshot below:
If it says "success", great! scroll down a little and select both areas to be Inbox like the screenshot:
Now finally head to the top of the page and click on "Apply".
Configuring Mautic Cron Jobs
The official documentation does a terrible job explaining this. So here are basically the Cron Jobs I use to run mautic.
I've divided them into different timings. Please keep in mind that you might need to change the timing of your Cron Jobs based on your hosting. I have a VPS so I can run my Cron Jobs as often as I need to. However, if you are on a shared hosting, you might need to make the periods slightly longer for some of those Cron Jobs.
If you don't know how to add Cron Jobs, please watch this video:
Also, make sure you replace my the information below with your correct directory. Simply replace the * with the directory of your Mautic Installation.
Every 30 minutes
/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:social:monitoring > */cron_logs/social_monitoring.log 2>&1
Every 5 Minutes:
/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:email:fetch > */cron_logs/email_fetch.log 2>&1/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:webhooks:process > */cron_logs/webhooks_process.log 2>&1
Every 1 minute
/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:segments:update > */cron_logs/segments_update.log 2>&1/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:campaigns:rebuild > */cron_logs/campaigns_rebuild.log 2>&1/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:campaigns:trigger > */cron_logs/campaigns_trigger.log 2>&1/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:emails:send > */cron_logs/emails_sends.log 2>&1/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:messages:send > */cron_logs/messages_sends.log 2>&1/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:broadcasts:send > */cron_logs/broadcasts.log 2>&1
Once Daily
/usr/local/bin/php */app/console mautic:iplookup:download > */cron_logs/iplookup.log 2>&1
Or simply copy the code to a text file and edit it from there:
Mautic is still new and under heavy development. There are new features added often. However, I genuinely think it's better than GetResponse, Aweber, and all the other email marketing tools.
It's cheaper and allows you to do amazing things with its campaign builder.
If you have tried it, what are your thoughts? Make sure you comment and share to help other people learn what you learned today!

I've recently started thinking about what I'd like to do for my hen do; well to be honest I've focused more on what I DON'T want to do!
I really don't like the idea of the typical hen do that involves drinking loads, clubbing, 'L plates' and all the rest of that stuff you see and hear about on TV. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that; perhaps if I was the person I was 6 years ago then that'd be right up my street, but since being with Mr M, I've changed, and I now couldn't think of anything worse!
For my hen do I'd really love to go on a spa day; being pampered and having loads of treatments, followed up with a nice meal out somewhere, and then an evening of girly films and wine and cakes at home!
Alternatively I'd also love to have a craft filled day; learning something new like pottery, or spend a day on a farm learning how to milk cows – totally different to the spa day, but something I would like to do and something that would be fun to do for a hen do I think!
I wouldn't mind going abroad for my hen do, but I would want it to be revolved around sightseeing, with perhaps some wine tasting courses, or cookery classes.
I will be getting involved with the planning of my hen do; I know my Chief Bridesmaid will want to organise it herself, but I am going to give her some hints, and make sure she knows what I really don't want. I want everyone who is invited to have fun, so I'd prefer it was a 'safe' activity, rather than something that revolves around lots of drinking.
Whatever we end up doing, I'm sure it'll be fun!!

It's no secret that marriages are failing all over the world. Even those who have lasted decades.
I feel like so, so many marriages fall between the cracks. They are struggling, but don't even know where to start to change the course they are on. If they continue their habits, divorce is likely. But how to turn it around? With what resources? The internet is helpful, but they need something more – something with exercises they can do together, questions they can ask each other, goals they can set, intimacy ideas they can try, and even date ideas to liven things up.
…where is that, though? My heart is to see marriages thrive. I'm so glad there are others with that same heart.
I recently came across The Reclaim Your Marriage program from the Dating Divas. I have been nothing short of impressed! This program is broken up into 10 week sessions – 1 session per week. Each session hits on a hot-button topic in marriage, like trust, communication, finances, and intimacy.
This program is essentially private, at-home couples counseling that you can do all online. Each session includes a therapy video from Tara (founder of The Dating Divas), tons of exercises, activities, thought-provoking questions, and ways to solve those tricky "bumps in the road" that plague marriages today. They have come up with a simple, effective solution that couples can do together, in the privacy of their own home.
The reviews have been pouring in, and they are impressive! This program has saved dozens of marriages already, and that's only from the beta testing.
If you are truly needing to put an investment into your relationship – try the Reclaim Your Marriage Program!
The first is week is free, so you've got nothing to lose! Let me know if you give it a try. Your marriage is worth the attempt.

I reach toward the glossy cover. Ooh, the latest Chet and Bernie mystery.
I stop myself. Stay focused.
I drag myself from the new releases and continue to the hardcover stacks, looking down at the scrap of paper in my hand. On it I scribbled a list of four books written by authors when they were under the age of twenty-five. Reading one of these titles is the first of twenty-four tasks in the Book Riot 2015 Read Harder Challenge. That's why I'm in the library on my lunch break, but I'm distracted from my purpose by all my familiar favorites.
I haven't read any Rizzoli and Isles in a long time. Maybe I could . . . I pick up my pace. It wouldn't be a challenge if it were easy, I remind myself.
I locate the shelf where the works of Zadie Smith are lined up. Her name is familiar in a different way. I once prided myself on knowing serious authors like Smith. As an overweight teen growing up in the country, I didn't want to be just another hick. I immersed myself in literature, trying to better myself by reading the classics. While my peers indulged in Sweet Vally High, I worked through the oeuvre of Thomas Hardy. Instead of the latest bestsellers, I opted for The Complete Works of William Shakespeare. I chased after the honorific of "well-read" as if it were a beauty pageant crown because, heaven knows, I was never going to don a tiara.
Somewhere along the way, I wearied of the heavy reading. After college, work taxed my brain power. After marriage, motherhood stole the time I once devoted to tomes. Then came the day when I asked, I've lived this long without reading The Grapes of Wrath, why bother with it now? I settled into novels with Inspector Morse and his British brethren, the all-American PI whodunits, the forensic procedurals featuring Brennan and Scarpetta, and the frothy fun of Stephanie Plum mysteries. I found comfort in following series in which I knew the characters and all their quirks. I stopped being a book snob and settled into the guilt-free pleasure of popular fiction.
Yet, amid the comfortable and familiar, I lost opportunities to view life from diverse perspectives, to virtually travel across the globe, to learn about different cultures, and to stretch my mind. I'm not sure I realized this when I accepted the Read Harder challenge. Twenty-four books? No problem. I read twice as many books in a given year. But when I looked through my pile of used paperbacks, I realized how my homogeneous my selections were.
I don't find Smith's first novel, White Teeth, on the shelf so I hunt for the next title on my list. No luck. I move over a few shelves and locate the third book on my list: The Icarus Girl by Helen Oyeyemi. I know nothing about Oyeyemi or her book until I read the dust jacket. Her debut novel, completed before she turned nineteen, incorporates the mythology of her native Nigeria. The eight-year-old protagonist, Jess, spends hours reading Shakespeare.
I check out the book and head back to work, thinking about how, without this challenge, I would never have picked it out. Now I get to travel to a new country, meet Jess and an assortment of other characters, and see the world through their eyes.
Maybe this challenge won't be that hard after all.

Myron Braun - Vice President, Sales, Renodis Telecommunications
Steve Young - Associate Professor, Georgia State University
"Richard is a true professional in the development and administration of compensation plans. His experience at MCI and Verizon spanned a couple of decades where the corporation grew from a young start up to a key player in the industry. The story of that growth would not be complete without an understanding and optimal use of the most successful compensation plans. Richard was the architect of many of those plans and he possesses great experience and knowledge of leveraging compensation plans to achieve corporate goals."
Nicholas Ridolfi - Senior Vice President, AboveNet
"I worked with Richard for a number of years at MCI and always found him to be someone I could depend on to support my sales organization with creative, effective and easy to implement compensation plans and initiatives to help me and my organization achieve the results we were tasked to achieve."
Omar Leeman - Senior Partner, Firm44
"I had the extreme pleasure of working directly with Richard for several years at MCI. These were many of the most significant growth years in MCI's history.

This position can be an unpopular role; Richard was respected and well-liked by all executives at MCI. It was my pleasure and privilege to work with Richard at MCI."
Jay Crookston - Vice President of Sales, EnergyConnect

Kevin Bosley - Vice President and General Manager, Time Warner Telecom
"During my 20+ years at MCI, Richard could always be counted on to design, manage, and execute creative, fair and good business-based compensation programs. They were a large part of MCI's early success as it was widely known that MCI was a company within the industry that compensated it's employees very well. In addition to these skills, Richard was very flexible and easy to work with when times required adjustments or creative solutions to complex compensation issues."
Scott Rauschenberg - Executive Director, Finance, Verizon

Richard was always responsive to my requests, and he helped us design and implement creative methods to increase sales. Richard's expertise and collaborative spirit made the challenging task of compensation planning and administration much easier!"

CEO of Shakhtar Sergei Palkin commented on the rumors about the possible transfer of the Pitmen's midfielder Bernard to Everton.
"This information I can't comment. At the moment about any explicit manifestations of Everton interest to our player I have not heard," said Palkin.
Earlier, SPORTS bigmir)net reported that Everton has long been interested in signing Dynamo striker Andriy Yarmolenko, but recently it was reported that the English club refused to buy Ukrainian, and switched to a transfer Shakhtar midfielder Bernard.


text: I passed this carved fallen tree trunk on my most recent walk in the park. The scale of it is hard to tell from this picture, but it's slightly larger than life size. It's been there for years (at least 18 I would say) and I have no idea who created it, or when. I think it's an imaginative use of a natural resource rather than just taking it away and turning it into compost or whatever they might do with it. There are quite a few more recently fallen trees (from a storm we had a few years ago, and also some very high winds at the end of last year) so I'm hoping something similar might happen to them.

The head Severity Index concept has attracted widespread attention in the automotive industry. This index is intended to estimate human survivability in a systematic way without relying on judgment values. It is employed for evaluating the probability of internal head injury for those indeterminate conditions where the human tolerance limits are not clearly defined.This paper discusses a damage index which is believed to be superior to the current Severity Index in several respects: 1. The concept is applicable to internal injuries of the torso as well as the head. 2. It is felt to describe the actual damage mechanism more directly. 3. It fits the Wayne State head tolerance curve better than the Severity Index. 4. It is suitable for analyzing impact pulses of any time duration. Examples cited in this paper include rocket sled exposures (250 ms duration) down to severe head impacts (5 ms duration). 5. It is more convenient to employ. The index is inherently insensitive to long, low amplitude pulses; it is also largely independent of signal filtering characteristics. This damage index is an extension of proposals made by other investigators. It employs a spring-mass model of the particular human organ under consideration; the input pulse is used as the forcing function and the displacement of the organ is calculated. This organ displacement is used as the parameter of damage. The displacement limit is set by employing input pulses which are known to approach the human tolerance limit. The analysis presented in this paper indicates that the displacements calculated in this manner are not overly sensitive to small errors in the determination of spring-mass values; thus the basic biomechanical data need not be highly refined. Future medical progress will ultimately determine the true suitability of this proposed index. It is felt, however, to be the most realistic basis for appraisals based on current knowledge.

Don't go unprotected!
by riverbendcog
"I am not asking you to take them out of the world, but to keep them safe from the evil one. They do not belong to this world any more than I do. Make them holy by your truth; teach them your word which is truth. Just as you sent me into the world, I am sending them into the world. " John 17:15-17
Here we have Jesus praying for the safety and protection of His followers. He knows that He is about to be crucified and that soon after He will have to leave them behind. Jesus knew fully the challenges and dangers that the early followers would face in the months and years after His resurrection. But He also knew what we would face centuries later when we went out into the world. He knew that we needed to be protected from many dangers that lay waiting for us to stumble upon.
For the past 2 weeks Pastor Chris has been preaching about the concept of clean versus unclean. It has been a strong message for us about the importance of not being hesitant to be in the world, and the importance for us as Christ followers to get involved with the people God has placed in our lives. For many people that is a challenge! Lots of Christians readily admit they don't actually know anyone who doesn't believe in God and go to church. Many others are cautious about getting too close to people who are "unclean" or worldly–almost as if they are afraid that the worldliness will rub off on them and cause them to stumble. This is not an irrational fear. The world IS as dangerous place!
But we have to ask ourselves–what does God want from us, knowing that He promises what He calls us to do, He equips us to do. In His Word, God frequently tells us that He is not impressed with lavish shows of worship. He wants the feet on the ground. Have a good read through Isaiah 58: 2-7! Here God tells us that we can fast and pray all we want but if we continue to ignore the people around us who are in oppression living without him, our acts of worship are just that. Acts and performances made to make us feel good.
Make no mistake however, rubbing shoulders with the world is not easy. While Christian people are far from perfect,usually when we hang out with them we are spared from swearing, overt anger, drunkenness, sexual immorality and other behaviors that we may find disturbing. But why would we expect non-believers to behave like God followers? We should not be surprised by this at all. When we are walking through life with non-Christians we will be exposed to these behaviors that we left behind when we chose God. And if we are not thoughtful and cautious we could find ourselves slipping into some bad habits.
So how do we navigate both worlds? How do we honor God with expressions of worship that place us in the world,loving and serving those who don't know Him, while still remaining clean?
We need a super-natural vaccination to protect us! We get this through the power of the Holy Spirit. We get this by staying firmly connected to the source of our hope and strength. We get this when we faithfully and consistently read the word of God. We get this when we go to God often in prayer. We get this when we come back to the body of Christ often so that we always remember what we have and what it is that we want for others.
God does want us to be in the world. He has given us the responsibility of representing Him and drawing others to Him through us. But praise God, He doesn't send us out there unprotected!

Eye'm trying this again
Yeeeah…so, sorry about the disappearing act. I had a delightful case of the mean reds and didn't feel particularly chatty. And now I shall be disappearing again as it is time to get my lil procedure done. Again.
This time I'm healthy-ish, with no hacking cough. (Thanks Flippy!)
Anyhoo, have fun and I shall be back once the drug-induced haze fades.
Peace and love bitches.
4 Responses to "Eye'm trying this again"
i had the grumpy greens, but i'm a trooper.
no disappear! every time you use the word "procedure" i think that you're having a third breast installed, or third butt cheek… yeah that one's a bit tougher.
well if you have to go, good luck. take pictures if their gonna carve you up.
Sorry to hear that a repeat of the, gulp, procedure is due. Hopefully the festivities of the following week will aid in your recovery? I'm looking forward to raising a glass with you. I'll just know now not to read too much into your tearing up when we do.
