Birthday Blues
When I was in grade school we watched this movie about a little old lady who invited all the children in the neighborhood to a party. But the children didn't know her, thought she was scary looking, spread the word, and no one went to her party. She had it all set up so beautiful. Her best tea set. Pretty streamers. Cakes and punch and treats. This movie ruined me for life. I always feel like that little old lady, peeking though her lace curtains, heartbroken that no one came to her party.
So, the reason this is such an expensive endeavor is that I have hired a Mad Scientist to come for the boys. This was a much begged for event. (Oldest son has been asking to have a Mad Science birthday for the last two years.) He convinced Keegan this would be a ton a fun, so I cut a deal with them, and the party is actually for my two oldest. It will be fun. There will be joy and laugher. Or else I am going to kill somebody.
Just hiring someone is not enough. The Mad Scientist will entertain for about an hour and a half, but I still have the cake and goodies to prepare. Some dumb mother also came up with the idea of doing a soda geyser experiment. Who was that woman and why did she, in a moment of huge stupidity, google soda geyser videos and show them to my sons for inspiration?
But I am not going to shell out $4.95 per child for goodie bags! I will not feel guilty for not sending home goodie bags even if my children have attended other parties where they always get said goody bag. I will not be guilty!

I know that I'm a couple of weeks younger than you (*cough*cough*), but I also was shown that video during my school years. I remember feeling deep sorrow over that. I always tried hard to be extra nice to older people after that. I still have a soft spot for senior citizens because of it.ReplyDelete
The biggest thing that ever happened for my birthday party is that my mom hired a locally reknowned magician named Rick Rodgers. He entertained for a little over 30 minutes, signed posters, then left. My dad still has his. It reads "To my best friend Larry, who taught me everything I've ever known about magic. Sincerely, Rick Rodgers." My dad is a total ham.
My point: You're an awesome mom for even having the Mad Science party. It's more than I ever got. If the parents or the kids feel skunked, let 'em. They need an attitude adjustment. They should not spurn generosity of any kind.
It's gonna be FUN. They don't care about goodie bags, it's exploding Coke and Mentos we are excited over.ReplyDelete
Ahhh...the things we'll do for our children! I had about a dozen reptiles in my garage for one of Matthew's parties. It was pretty cool but very expensive!ReplyDelete
first here is the web address for the other blog of mine;ReplyDelete
it has the blog about keegan. stop by and have a read and if you think it's worth it then tell your other blogger friends to have a look.
i confess i have never seen that film, i wonder what the perpose of such a film would be? to depress everyone? anyways, you are an awesome mom...you think i just say that cause i'm your hubby, but look at all the affirmayions that i am getting from everyone else. the children loved the party. i will say no more as i think it would be best for you tp blog about it.
oops purpose not perposeReplyDelete
Does THIS look familiar??ReplyDelete

Bayern Munich star Arjen Robben reckons Tottenham beat Arsenal for Rafael van der Vaart.
Robben believes that Arsenal star Robin van Persie had been trying to tempt Van Der Vaart into a move to the Emirates.
He said: "I knew of his interest in England and that van Persie had been speaking with him about how great life in London was. I think when Robin was trying to convince him how great London and the Premier League was, it was as though he was trying to convince him to join Arsenal.
"It's kind of backfired on Robin a little bit now, though, because he has signed for their biggest rivals."

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln has awarded professorships to seven faculty members who will be recognized at Honors Convocation on April 14.
They are Evgeny Tsymbal, Donald Becker, Hong Jiang, Joy Castro, Myra Cohen, Stephen Ramsay and Jay Storz.
Tsymbal was named a George W. Holmes University Professor of Physics and Astronomy. Tsymbal, director of the Materials Research Science and Engineering Center, joined UNL in 2002. His research is focused on computational materials science aiming at the understanding of fundamental properties of advanced ferromagnetic and ferroelectric nanostructures and materials relevant to nanoelectronics and spintronics.
The Holmes University Professorship carries a $15,000 stipend and is supported by endowed funds at the University of Nebraska Foundation. Named university professorships are awarded based on a record of extraordinary scholarly or creative achievement and potential for continuing major accomplishments; documented evidence of excellence in teaching and outreach; and extensive involvement in service to the various university missions above the normal level of campus citizenship.
"University professorships recognize faculty who have had a significant impact on the university in addition to fulfilling their normal academic responsibilities," said Sunil Narumalani, associate vice chancellor for Academic Affairs. "These faculty have been greatly responsible for improving the quality with which UNL serves its students, academia and the community."
Becker and Jiang were named as Willa Cather/Charles Bessey Professors. Becker, Charles Bessey Professor of Biochemistry, joined UNL in 2003 and is director of the Redox Biology Center. He was trained at UNL as a postdoctoral fellow from 1995 to 1998.
After beginning his career as an assistant professor at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, Becker was recruited back to UNL to become a founding member of the Redox Biology Center.
Jiang, Willa Cather Professor of Computer Science and Engineering, has been associated with UNL since 1991 and was vice chair of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering from 2001 to 2007. He holds a bachelor's degree from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China; a master's degree from the University of Toronto and a doctoral degree from Texas A&M University.
The Willa Cather/Charles Bessey professorship honors a full professor with an exceptional record of distinguished scholarship or creative activity. The professorship carries a $5,000 stipend.
Four faculty were awarded the Susan J. Rosowski professorship, established in 2008, which recognizes faculty at the associate professor level who have achieved distinguished records of scholarship or creative activity and who show exceptional promise for future excellence. The appointment carries a $3,000 stipend.
"The University was happy to support all four Rosowski nominations received this year and demonstrates the importance of the contributions from our young faculty," Narumalani said.
Castro was named Susan J. Rosowski Associate Professor of English. Castro joined UNL in 2007. She received her bachelor's degree in English from Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas, and master's and doctoral degrees at Texas A&M University. Her critically acclaimed memoir, "The Truth Book," has been widely adopted for courses at major universities.
Cohen was named Susan J. Rosowski Associate Professor of Computer Science and Engineering. She joined UNL in 2004 as an assistant professor and was promoted to associate professor with tenure in 2010. She has been recognized at UNL for both teaching and research and has received Nebraska FIRST awards in both 2005 and 2006, a UNL Layman award in 2007, the UNL Computer Science and Engineering Department's undergraduate teaching awards in 2005, 2006 and 2007 and was named an "Academic Star" by the UNL College of Arts and Science in 2010.

Jane Fonda Discusses Plastic Surgery
December 14, 2011 in Celebrity Plastic Surgery by ericharatz | Leave a Comment
For years, Jane Fonda has been an example of the best way to age and recently she has admitted that plastic surgery is a part of her regimen, along with healthy eating and exercise.
73-year old Jane Fonda revealed her plastic surgery earlier this year, including a blepharoplasty and necklift along with chin liposuction (See Make Me Heal's story on Jane Fonda's plastic surgery).
In a recent interview on TODAY, Jane discussed her decision to go under the knife with Matt Lauer.
"I thought, 'Oh my God, it's me,'" said Jane. "I feel so great and so rested and I look so different and I just decided — and I'm not proud of it — I decided I wanted to look more like how I feel."
"I just decided I wanted to buy myself some time and look more like how I feel," said Fonda.
Immediately after her surgery, Jane gave away her procedures by wearing sunglasses and a turtleneck to hide bruising during her Topamax online plastic surgery recovery.
Dr. David Shafer, celebrity plastic surgeon in New York City says, " Jane looks good. Just as many people have found, plastic surgery can help people age gracefully – and beautifully."
Miami plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Salzhauer Toradol without prescription says, "Kudos to Jane Fonda for empowering herself to look as good as she feels. I often have patients express that they look older than they feel and that is their motivation for undergoing cosmetic surgery. And I see nothing wrong with that as long as they have realistic expectations and don't think they are going to all of a sudden appear 20-30 years younger. I think her results look great and you can just tell that she feels great about her new youthful look as well."
Jane looks fantastic and her plastic surgery was well-done.

Even applying for cleaning jobs is no piece of cake.

Considered and decided by Halbrooks, Presiding Judge, Lansing, Judge, and Peterson, Judge.
HALBROOKS, Judge
Appellant challenges the postconviction court's order denying his petition for modification of his 1998 adult sentence for second-degree assault and first-degree aiding an offender, imposed as part of an EJJ disposition and executed in 2002. Appellant argues that because there was no evidence that the court intended an upward departure or that appellant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to be sentenced under the guidelines, his sentence should have been modified. Appellant also argues that he is entitled to jail credit for time he spent in the Bar None treatment program. Because we conclude that appellant's sentence was in accordance with the guidelines and that the 2000 amendment to Minn. Stat. § 260B.130, subd. 5 (1998), bars appellant from receiving jail credit, we affirm.
On July 3, 1998, appellant Akram Muhammadattended a party at 6048 Ewing Avenue North in Brooklyn Center, where he got into a confrontation with M.A.L. Appellant had a gun with him during the argument and admitted that he wanted M.A.L. to be afraid of him. The following evening, appellant attended another party at the same residence with three of his friends, including S.B. According to witnesses, appellant and his friends began arguing with M.A.L. and went outside to fight. Once outside, someone struck M.A.L. in the head with an object, causing him to fall to the ground. Appellant then handed a gun to S.B. and told him to "shoot [M.A.L.] in the head." S.B. shot M.A.L. in the chest. Police responded to the scene at approximately 1:00 a.m. on July 5, 1998, and found M.A.L. lying on the ground with a gunshot wound to the chest.
Appellant agreed to hide the gun used to shoot M.A.L. at his home. Appellant admitted he made this decision knowing the gun was used in the shooting, that M.A.L. had sustained a life-threatening injury that resulted in paralysis, and that S.B. had been arrested for the crime. Police executed a search warrant at appellant's residence and recovered the gun. Appellant maintained that he was not involved in the shooting, but nonetheless took responsibility for having a gun at the party and for assisting in concealing the gun after the shooting.
Appellant reached a plea agreement with the state. In exchange for dismissal of the more serious charges, appellant pleaded guilty to second-degree assault in violation of Minn. Stat. § 609.222, subd. 1 (1998), and first-degree aiding an offender known to have committed the crime of assault, in violation of Minn. Stat. § 609.495, subd. 3 (1998). The state agreed that appellant could be designated an extended jurisdiction juvenile (EJJ), rather than being certified as an adult. The district court adjudicated appellant as delinquent and imposed a stayed sentence of 79 months, comprised of 36 months for the assault crime and a consecutive term of 43 months for the aiding-an-offender crime. The court placed appellant on EJJ probation and committed him to the Bar None locked unit treatment program.
As part of his EJJ probation, appellant was required to abstain from drug and alcohol use and to become gainfully employed. On December 8, 2000, appellant waived the right to a hearing and admitted that he tested positive for marijuana and had not held a job since his release from a group home six months earlier. Consequently, the court revoked appellant's EJJ probation. The court imposed appellant's 79-month adult sentence, but stayed execution for ten years on the condition that appellant spend 12 months in the workhouse, participate in chemical dependency counseling, and remain employed and law-abiding upon release.
On September 7, 2001, appellant was charged with minor consumption and disorderly conduct and was subsequently sentenced to 30 days in the workhouse. Appellant's 79-month sentence was not executed at that time. On February 15, 2002, appellant was again charged with violating his probation after testing positive for marijuana and cocaine and committing a new criminal offense in Illinois. Following appellant's contested disposition hearing on June 3, 2002, the district court revoked appellant's stay and executed his 79-month prison term.
Appellant filed a petition for postconviction relief, arguing that his sentence should be modified under State v. Misquadace, 644 N.W.2d 65 (Minn. 2002), because his consecutive sentence was a departure under the guidelines and because his plea agreement, standing alone, did not provide substantial and compelling reasons justifying the sentence. Appellant also argued that he was entitled to jail credit for the time he spent in various jails between the date probable cause was established and the date his sentence was executed, as well as for time spent in the Bar None program.
The postconviction court denied appellant's modification request, finding that appellant's reliance on Misquadace was erroneous and that a consecutive sentence was proper because the underlying conduct of the aiding-an-offender crime made it a crime against persons. The court granted appellant's request for four days of jail credit for time spent in jail prior to execution of his sentence, but denied jail credit for the time he spent in the Bar None program pursuant to Asfaha v. State, No. C6-02-691, 2002 WL 1803827 (Minn. App. Aug. 6, 2002), rev'd, 665 N.W.2d 523 (Minn. 2003). This appeal follows.
A postconviction court's rulings are reviewed under an abuse-of-discretion standard. State v. Ecker, 524 N.W.2d 712, 716 (Minn. 1994). On factual issues, we determine whether the evidence is sufficient to sustain the postconviction court's findings. Butala v. State, 664 N.W.2d 333, 338 (Minn. 2003). We "afford great deference to a district court's findings of fact and will not reverse the findings unless they are clearly erroneous." Dukes v. State, 621 N.W.2d 246, 251 (Minn. 2001). But on legal issues, we exercise de novo review. Butala, 664 N.W.2d at 338.
Appellant argues that the postconviction court abused its discretion in denying his petition to modify his sentence. Appellant contends that although the parties believed that a 79-month sentence was presumptive, it was actually a departure because aiding an offender is not a "crime against persons," and consequently, a consecutive sentence is not permissible under the guidelines.[1] See Minn. Sent. Guidelines II.F.2. Appellant argues that because there was no evidence that the court intended an upward departure or that appellant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to be sentenced under the guidelines, his sentence should have been modified.
While we agree with respondent that appellant's petition for postconviction relief was untimely and should not have been considered, see Minn. Stat. § 244.11, subd. 3(b), (c) (1998), we nonetheless address the merits of this appeal. The sentencing guidelines provide that "[m]ultiple current felony convictions for crimes against persons may be sentenced consecutively to each other" without constituting a departure from the guidelines. Minn. Sent. Guidelines II.F.2. Furthermore, "[c]onsecutive sentencing is permissive . . . even when the offenses involve a single victim involving a single course of conduct." Minn. Sent. Guidelines cmt. II.F.04. Although the sentencing guidelines do not define what constitutes a crime against persons, Minnesota caselaw makes clear that this determination depends on the nature of the underlying conduct, not on how the crime is nominally classified. See State v. Myers, 627 N.W.2d 58, 62-63 (Minn. 2001) (holding that consecutive sentence for obstructing legal process is crime against persons if underlying conduct in committing crime posed special danger to human life); State v. Notch, 446 N.W.2d 383, 385 (Minn. 1989) (holding that burglary may qualify as offense against a person if "as committed" it is in fact a crime against persons); State v. Henderson, 394 N.W.2d 561, 563-64 (Minn. App. 1986) (affirming consecutive sentence for burglary even though burglary is listed as "property offense" in the statutes), review denied (Minn. Dec. 17, 1986).
Here, we conclude that the record amply supports the postconviction court's finding that
[t]he culpability of [appellant] in committing both [the assault and aiding-an-offender] crimes is high and the severity of the crimes is also high. [Appellant] threatened another person with a gun and then hid the gun that was used to shoot this same person at a later date. The victim of these matters was almost killed by the injuries sustained from the shooting and is now currently paralyzed. The underlying conduct in the Aiding an Offender charge is such that this Court considers it to be a crime against a person.
Because the aiding-an-offender crime constitutes a crime against persons under these circumstances, appellant's sentence is not a departure from the guidelines and we need not address appellant's argument that he did not knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waive his right to be sentenced under the guidelines. Therefore, we conclude that the postconviction court did not abuse its discretion by denying appellant's petition to modify.
Appellant also argues that the district court erred in denying his request for jail credit for time spent in the Bar None treatment program. "The decision to grant jail credit is not discretionary with the district court." State v. Fritzke, 521 N.W.2d 859, 861 (Minn. App. 1994). Generally, a defendant is entitled to credit for "all time spent in custody in connection with the offense or behavioral incident for which sentence is imposed." Minn. R. Crim. P. 27.03, subd. 4(B). But while "an offender may receive treatment either as part of confinement in a state correctional facility or as part of a residential treatment program, the sentencing guidelines only permit jail credit for the correctional facility treatment." State v. Serena, 673 N.W.2d 182, 185 (Minn. App. 2003), review granted (Minn. Feb. 17, 2004); see also Minn. Sent. Guidelines III.C.3 (jail credit "is limited to time spent in jails, workhouses, and regional correctional facilities").
In denying appellant's request for jail credit, the postconviction court relied on this court's decision in Asfaha v. State, No. C6-02-691, 2002 WL 1803827 (Minn. App. Aug. 6, 2002), rev'd, 665 N.W.2d 523 (Minn. 2003), which held that time spent in juvenile custody could not be calculated as jail credit. But the Minnesota Supreme Court has since reversed Asfaha, holding that certified juveniles are entitled to jail credit for time spent in juvenile custody. Asfaha, 655 N.W.2d at 528.
Appellant argues that under Asfaha, he is entitled to jail credit. But effective August 1, 2000, the Minnesota Legislature amended Minn. Stat. § 260B.130, subd. 5 (1998), "to prevent extended jurisdiction juvenile (EJJ) offenders from receiving jail credit for time served in juvenile facility custody if, after a summary hearing, the district court determines that the EJJ offender has violated the conditions of the stayed adult sentence and reasons exist to revoke the stay of execution of the adult sentence." Serena, 673 N.W.2d at 186; see 2000 Minn. Laws ch. 255, § 1. As we recognized in Serena, the "[l]egislative history regarding the 2000 amendment reflects a clear intent to restrict jail credit for any time spent in juvenile facility custody as an EJJ offender." Serena, 673 N.W.2d at 186 (emphasis removed); see also State v. Garcia, 670 N.W.2d 297, 299-300 (Minn. App. 2003) (recognizing that Minn. Stat. § 260B.130, subd. 5, prohibits courts from awarding EJJ offenders jail credit for time spent in a juvenile facility against a subsequently revoked stayed adult sentence and that Asfaha did not compel a different result), review granted (Minn. Dec. 23, 2003).
Nonetheless, appellant argues that because he spent his time in Bar None before August 1, 2000, the amendment to Minn. Stat. § 260B.130, subd. 5, does not bar him from receiving jail credit. We disagree. We addressed a nearly identical issue in Serena, where the appellant argued that because Minn. Stat. § 260B.130, subd. 5, did not place any restrictions on jail credit at the time he committed the offenses, application of the 2000 amendment to the EJJ statute changed the legal consequences of acts he committed before the jail-credit prohibition was enacted. Serena, 673 N.W.2d at 188. We held that "[b]ecause application of the 2000 amendment to the EJJ statute was triggered by acts [the appellant] committed after the amendment's effective date, such application does not violate the prohibition against ex post facto laws." Id.
Here, application of the 2000 amendment was triggered by acts appellant committed after the amendment's effective date. Appellant's EJJ designation was revoked in December 2000 and his adult sentence was executed in June 2002, after another parole violation in February 2002. As in Serena, "at the time of the violation, [appellant] had fair warning that jail credit would not be awarded if the district court revoked his stayed adult sentence." Id. Therefore, we conclude that the postconviction court did not err in denying jail credit for the time appellant spent in the Bar None program.
[1] Initially, appellant also asserted that his 43-month aiding-an-offender sentence was a departure because it was calculated in contravention of the guidelines. But as appellant recognizes in his reply brief, the presumptive sentence for this offense in 1998 was 44 to 48 months.

Originally published on May 17, 2011.
Shane O'Brien needed to see his house one last time.
He walked two kilometres from an evacuation centre in Slave Lake, a tall can of Coors Light in his hand, just to see what used to be his home. Only the foundation remained after a wildfire swept through the community hours before.
"I'm so glad I checked out my house," he said while shopping for toiletries in Kingsway Garden Mall in Edmonton. "I'd be wondering right now what happened to it."
He sneaked away from the evacuation site at a Canadian Tire parking lot to find his fridge standing upright in a pile of rubble that used to be his duplex. Only the sprockets from his two motorcycles remained where his garage had been. His quad and three deep freezers were reduced to ash. "I'd feel guilty if it was still standing," he said.
O'Brien and his girlfriend Lisa Teasdale spent Monday stocking up on groceries and water before heading to the small town of Smith, 70 kilometres east of Slave Lake. They'll live in his parents' RV on his brother's land for the next few months, he said.
They left the house about an hour before it caught fire, he said. They had been out surveying the damage in the town, seeing what their neighbours were doing.
"Everyone was out watching the fires," Teasdale said.
When they got back to their home around 3 p.m. Sunday, smoke was billowing into the home through open windows and the electricity was out.
They didn't have long to grab what they needed, but had a list in mind. The laptop, hard drive, photo collection and a few garbage bags full of clothing were thrown into his truck before they joined the long line of cars leading out of town.
O'Brien's parents were there, planning to house sit for the couple while they visited Teasdale's parents in Nova Scotia.
Police were cruising up and down the streets, urging residents to take Highway 2 east out of town.
He said people rode around the ashy streets on dirt bikes and ATVs, and wind blew debris through the air.
"It was like a war zone going on around us," he said.
He could smell rubber burning. A smoky, orange glow surrounded the town as they arrived at the evacuation site, where many had taken refuge. Some people were drinking beer, some just watched the flames a few kilometres away.
It was "just a weird atmosphere," said O'Brien, who works as a driller on a service rig.
"Most people won't ever see anything like this."
Once in a while something pops into his mind, something he wants but doesn't have. His quad, or kitchen appliances. His bed.
He was covered by fire insurance but doesn't yet know if it includes wildfires. He doesn't know where to start.
"I don't know what's the first step. Do I start calling insurance companies?" he asked.

Waterloo Junction Stage 1 provides a dramatic entrance to the commercial and social hub that is Fortitude Valley. Located on the prominent corner of Commercial Road and Ann Street, the design of the new 6-storey commercial building is concentrated on modernity whilst retaining the classic design elements of the refurbished art deco Waterloo Hotel.
Cottee Parker Architects achieved this through the subtle inclusion of ceramic tile motifs and an interpretation of the original hotel's window etchings that animates the new building's facade. This design paradigm provides a contemporary backdrop to the historical context of the site. The fusion of the commercial and social uses of the location has been achieved by the framing the commercial foyer with lively dining and retail tenancies. The relaxed vibe is amplified through the planting of shade trees and the establishment of a living arbour walkway.
Sanctuary from the noise and excitement of the social activities is achieved as workers enter the double height foyer. The floor to ceiling sandstone wall encourages tactile engagement with the space and in doing so humanises the commercial activity. The animation of the façade is achieved through a mosaic created by the mixing of the opaque with the transparent and the light with the dark. This spectrum of textures creates the illusion of movement as the light changes with the clock.

Trislander aircraft finishes on Guernsey Jersey route
The aircraft used for commercial flights between Guernsey and Jersey for more than 40 years have been withdrawn from the service.
The Trislander aeroplane - first used by airline Aurigny in 1971 - has been replaced by planes operated by Blue Islands.
It is part of a merger agreement by the two airlines to save on costs.
Former Trislander pilots said it marked the end of an era and they were sad to see the plane go.
However, Trislanders will continue to fly between Alderney, France and Guernsey for the time being.
Although only Blue Island's planes will be used on the Guernsey to Jersey route, both carriers will take bookings for the seats, which will be sold on an equal basis.

Last week was "funnel week" at the statehouse. Now bills that couldn't make it through committee stand little chance of becoming law this session as lawmakers shift their focus to legislation that has more momentum to pass this year. However many of these issues might be revived in future legislative sessions.
Host Clay Masters speaks with Democratic Senator Chris Brase of Muscatine about a bill that would have barred audio of emergency-911 phone calls from public record. Also Representatives Peter Cownie, R.-West Des Moines, and Bruce Hunter, D.-Des Moines, discuss bills that would have required more in-home daycares to register with the state and lessened the penalty of marijuana possession.
Additionally IPR's statehouse correspondent Joyce Russell, Catherine Lucey of the Associated Press and Lee Enterprises Iowa bureau chief join Mike Wiser offer analysis.

Learn Spanish in Playa Jaco
The Enforex school offering Spanish courses in Playa Jaco is located in a beautiful residential neighbourhood, just a short way from the beach and close to everything a student could ever need. Within easy walking distance you will find restaurants, shops, and many other local resources, and the school itself features some great amenities. The traditional Costa Rican house includes a tropical garden full of exciting plants, a swimming pool for students to enjoy, a kitchen area, and a terrace, with free internet access during the day.
The following Spanish courses are available in Playa Jaco. Click on the Spanish course you're interested in to see more details.
- Intensive Group Course (20 lessons per week)
- Volunteer Program
- Super Intensive Spanish Course (20 lessons per week in group + 5 One on One)
- Private Spanish Lessons (20 lessons per week)
The laid back vibe of Playa Jaco is all pervasive, and you cannot help but relax during your time here – this is the ultimate Costa Rican beach town, known as a surfer's paradise with fantastic waves. The beaches are sun drenched and make for the perfect sunbathing locations, and you will love heading out after lessons to enjoy an afternoon spent lazing around on the sand. The area is exceptionally beautiful, so even going out for a walk can be exhilarating – be sure to pack a camera to capture all of the amazing sights that you will want to record to show everyone back home and help you remember your time in Playa Jaco.
There are four different Spanish courses offered by the school here: the ever popular intensive course is available here as at all of our Spanish language schools, and it is perfectly formulated to provide just the right balamce between lessons and time off to make sure that you go home with both a new understanding of the Spanish language and the true relaxation brought around by a real holiday.
The second option available in Playa Jaco is the private Spanish lessons course, which gives you half as many lessons as the intensive course but gives you the full attention of your own personal tutor. This is a great option for those who struggle a little with their confidence in language, as it can help you build up to a good level of language without spectators, and also for those who wish to have a little more time every day for relaxing or exploring Playa Jaco.
Additionally you can choose to combine a bit of both by opting to study the Super Intensive combination course available here. This involves 20 lessons per week as part of a group, complemented by 5 One to One lessons. You will begin to see your Spanish improving in no time at all!
Meanwhile, if you want to spend some time helping others, our volunteer program is a great way to start. This comprises four weeks of Spanish study to help you get your language skills up to scratch, followed by four weeks of voluntary work around the area that will be as rewarding as they are useful – both to the people that you are helping, and to your own language proficiency.

Gift in your will
Gifts left in wills have enabled Wood Green to develop from simple beginnings in 1924 to become an organisation which set national standards in animal welfare helping over 5,500 animals every year.
They have also funded new facilities such as catteries, kennels and a goat barn and helped with the basic essentials like food, bedding and the loving care provided by our team.
With homeless animals on the increase – and many needing veterinary attention, our work is just as crucial today as it was in 1924. We do not receive any government or lottery funding, so we rely entirely upon the kindness of our supporters to continue our essential work.
Gifts left in wills make up nearly 50% of our income, so every one is extremely valuable to us. A gift in your will, regardless of size, will ensure that we can continue to provide the very best dedicated care to the thousands of animals that need our help each year.
If you have already chosen to remember Wood Green in your will, you can now register your intent to donate by using our online register your gift form.

In a new report for the Upshot in the New York Times Nate Cohn writes that the only two candidates who really stand any chance of winning the Republican primary are Jeb Bush and maybe Scott Walker.
Now, I like Governor Walker (R-WI) as much as the next guy. He's done some great work in Wisconsin, and I think that he would make a vastly superior President to Barack Obama. He's not my favorite candidate (I'm not sure how conservative he really is) in the field, and I would be at least a little disappointed if he beat out the guys I'm really pulling for… but I could get behind him. I could vote for Governor Walker come November 2016.
Jeb Bush is a far different story.
Somehow the GOP establishment has decided that Jeb is as conservative as they want us to get, and they will keep pushing him as long as he doesn't make any major screw-ups. But I wanted – no, needed -- to come to you and ask you, dear grassroots, conservative reader, are you really ready to support Jeb Bush for President in 2016?
Look, I'm not saying he's the worst option ever. But he's no more conservative than John McCain or Mitt Romney, and the conservative grassroots never "loved" them. Jeb Bush is simply another in the line of "big government" pseudo-conservatives that are the Bush family. George H.W. Bush expanded the government, raised taxes and lost an election. George W. Bush doubled our national debt, expanded the government and bailed out the banks. Jeb Bush is already talking about reforming government… not cutting government.
This is the ultimate Bush family legacy, really. They are big government Republicans who have done more to harm our (conservative) cause over the last 30 years than any attack from a liberal Democrat.
Let's just ruminate over some of Jeb's most recent statements announcing his positions on some important issues.
On Education – Jeb Bush wholeheartedly supports the Common Core, and is all about big government answers to solve our education problems. This one thing should eliminate him from contention, but it hasn't.
On Amnesty and Illegal Immigration – Jeb Bush has been one of the loudest Republican voices supporting amnesty and a path to citizenship for over 11 million people… and he's been advocating amnesty for years.
On Taxes – Jeb Bush won't guarantee that taxes won't go up under his leadership. In fact, he seems very amenable to the idea of raising taxes if it gets him other things that he wants from Democrats. Does this remind you of anyone? (George HW Bush raising taxes in response to a Democrat pledge to cut spending; they never did, and he lost his job.) In fact, Forbes magazine writes that Jeb Bush WANTS to raise your taxes!
On Spending – As Governor Jeb Bush received good grades from conservative groups based mainly on tax policy, but we know he has reversed course on that. What hurt his grades was spending… and there is no evidence that he will spend less as President. Like his brother George W. Bush, Jeb is a "compassionate conservative" which is simply a euphemism for welfare state Republican. Make no mistake, Jeb Bush spends money like a Democrat on a bender.
On Redefining Marriage to Include Sodomy – Jeb Bush is "evolving" reminding us of other recent politicians… right, Obama?
The stat geeks (and I use the term affectionately) at 538 Blog put together this easy to understand chart back in December showing just how Jeb compares to other popular Republicans. And it's not pretty…
Jeb Bush is demonstrably more liberal than his brother, John McCain and Mitt Romney! Though he's at least more "conservative" than Chris Christie and Condoleezza Rice.
The long and the short of it, folks, is that Jeb Bush is far more liberal than your average grassroots conservative. Sadly, we only make up a portion of the GOP's base of support. Jeb can win the primary without us (as Mitt, McCain and Dole did previously), so it is up to us to convince other members of the base that Jeb is not fit to serve.
And I mean what I say – Jeb isn't fit to serve as President. I won't vote for him, I won't say nice things about him if he's the nominee. The best I can offer Jeb Bush is that I wouldn't vote for his opponent.
So, if you're with me on the Jeb issue, then we have some work to do.
We have to reach as many conservative voters as we can and implore them to find a different candidate. We have to direct them to Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Scott Walker, Bobby Jindal, Rick Perry, Marco Rubio… basically almost any other Republican seriously in the mix.
Look, I'm not saying that a Jeb Bush candidacy would be the death-knell for the Republican Party, but… it could be.Facebook, Google Plus, & Twitter. You can also get Freedom Outpost delivered to your Amazon Kindle device here.


text: Hello, I've been a member on this forum for a year and a half now and I must say that this forum has been the best source of information I've ever found. It contributed me so much that I wish I found it years ago. I'd like to share this success story with you and give back a bit to the bh community. All of the details are 100% real and happened in the end of February. The following screenshot is from my affiliate account on 7red.com online casino: I've found out about this affiliate program from a user here on the forum. I was skeptic at first that I will actually earn 50% revenue share as no one actually offers such numbers and even when they do you somehow gets screwed in some way. Today after I received my payment I'm very happy that I tried and went for it. How I did it? This is how: 1. Rented a VPS with 13 IPs 2. Set up 10 domains on the VPS. 3. Installed 10 copies of interspire email marketer ? 1 on each domain. 4. Logged into cPanel and turned on authentication (spf and domainkeys) for all of the domains. 5. Contacted the VPS hosting company and requested RDNS for all domains according to the IP I allocated for each one. 6. Created an email account for bounces through cPanel and used it to process the bounces received. That is all! It might sound complicated to some of you but it is actually really easy and quick.

The historic battles that took place in Northern KZN saw local populations famously take on British troops equipped with the most modern weapons of the time. The continued interest in the conflicts is the basis for a thriving tourism industry, drawing both local and international tourists to the iconic sites. ACT has been working with the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN) and Amafa to create a range of digital tools that allow people to explore the battlefield sites interactively and at their own pace. The battles of Spioenkop, Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift were documented using a range of mapping, photographic and 3D modelling techniques. In order to encourage people to explore the sites, the results have been put online so that the battlefields are virtually accessible from any computer or smart device.

I picked this up over at nofilmschool.com. We've seen these kind of tweaks in the forum (like here) several times before, but never explained in the form of a nice and poppy music video like this one. The idea is to cut out your desired shape of bokeh from a piece of black paper and hold it in front of your lens and voilá there you have your custom shaped bokeh. The people behind this short clip are both called Daniel thus calling themselves DANIELS. "Koo" who writes the nofilmschool.com blog recently also presented DANIELS' new music video by the band "Manchester Orchestra". Apparently shot on dslr and definitely worth checking out:Read more

Zombies, huh. You just can't get away from them, can you? If they're not staggering around Dead Rising's equivalent of an undead ASDA, they're spewing their guts up on you and your mates in Left 4 Dead.
This game is a 7 (3.5) at the very best. So many technical issues. Thrown weapons will vanish completely, or be visible but unable to be picked up. I lost my first shock weapon after throwing it once, and it was a good quality machete. Also, don't believe it when the game says it autosaves. I lost hours of gametime after doing multiple quests. I stopped to get some food, reloaded my game, and all those quests had to be done again. I didn't even mention the drops in framerate, horrible texture pop-in, controls that feel too loose, and bad vehicle handling.
Dead Island is seriously a blast with a friend. Might be my favorite game of the year.
Wow .... can you really even call that a review?? Short and almost no info...I could have written that BEFORE I played the game lol.

Fresh from the iFabbo shop is the Crown Brush HD Set with mirror and Tweezers!
I jumped at the opportunity to try this brush kit! I'm always looking for new travel kits and when I saw that this one also included tweezers, I was excited that the iFabbo shop wasn't sold out of them before I got on the list to get one. 😀
They Describe It As:
- 6 piece HD Cosmetic Brush Set w/ mirror, Tweezer and case.
- Made with high grade synthetic fiber.
- Vegan Friendly!
- Perfect for applying High Definition cosmetics, liquids, creams, and powders.
- Available in purple, orange or white/blue.
Usual Retail Price: $69.99US
Crown Brush Price (60% OFF): $27.95US
My Thoughts:
The packaging itself is nicely compact and they do a good job with it not feeling cheap and like it's going to fall apart. It wipes clean very easily making it even more travel friendly. The mirror is almost the entire length of the kit, so you can see your entire face and eyes. I've never enjoyed the small round mirrors, which never made sense to me because you can't see what you're doing! I had no trouble with this square mirror.
The tweezers are tucked right under the mirror, next to the bend; they're almost hidden away — it's perfect. They work fine and have a plastic stopper to keep them closed. I recommend keeping this little doodad. 😉
Let's get into the brushes shall we… 🙂
Pro Powder Brush: This is slightly smaller than your standard large powder brush. It's a little too small for all over powder and a little too big for blush. This worked great with mineralize powder, finishing powder and highlighters.
Tapered Blush Brush: This brush's bristles are very densely packed and is more suited to be used for sculpting powders or creams. I use this brush mostly for bronzers and blending creams.
Deluxe Contour Brush: The brush head on this is huge. You need to have huge eyes for this to work into the crease. I happen to have big eyes and this was still a challenge to get to work. With my eye closed, it covers my lid, crease and almost up to my eyebrow. I use this brush on the face to work details into the skin like contouring and highlighting and to cover up blemishes. It's really nice to use to buff product into the skin. I much prefer it for this purpose! If you do want to use this on your eye, you can do the "quick and dirty smokey eye" using one color and blending it all over the eye and into the crease with this brush until the color is faded out. If you have a hooded eye, this probably won't work but give it a shot!
Chisel Shadow Brush: This works great to put eye shadow on the eye lid. It picks up the color nicely and creates a really nice smoked out look when using the tip to blur out any lines, especially liner on top or under the eye.
Detail Liner Brush: I did not like this brush. It was not incredibly precise. This brush lays down a thicker line, so if you're looking for a thin liner, don't look to this brush.
Crease Blender Brush: This brush is really solid and the star of this kit. It's a little firmer than your standard crease brush that you may be used (think MAC 224), however, it blends beautifully. Fave brush of the kit, hands down.
Overall, the brushes are quite soft, wash well and don't shed very much/hardly at all save for a hair here and there. It misses the mark on the brush head size for half of the brushes in the kit and that's where it fails for me. You probably have several flat head eye shadow brushes and blending brushes in your arsenal already so I'd say pass on this. The quality is great but there are too many better starter kits out there for the money. The balance is just really off on this one.
Betty says: The quality is great but there are too many better starter kits out there for the money. The balance is just really off on this one.
What's your favorite travel brush set that hits on both quality and price?
Wishing you all a beautiful day!

Template:Infobox Wrestling event
ECW One Night Stand (2005) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). It was held on June 12, 2005 at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York, New York.[1]
The main event was a tag team match between The Dudley Boyz (Buh Buh Ray and D-Von) and the team of Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman, which the Dudley Boyz won. Two of the matches on the undercard were Chris Benoit versus Eddie Guerrero, and Mike Awesome versus Masato Tanaka.[2]
Although the build-up for the pay-per-view began in the middle of May, plans were in the works behind the scenes for several months in advance. Tommy Dreamer was in charge of organizing the event and getting ECW Originals to participate. He contacted several people, including The Sandman,[3] Sabu, Justin Credible,[4] and ECW commentator Joey Styles.[5] Reports later stated that Paul Heyman was working with Dreamer to help prepare the event.[6] Other ECW related wrestlers were later added to the PPV.[7] The event was publicly confirmed by WWE through a Dish Network magazine in March 2005.[8] In an interview with SLAM! Sports days before One Night Stand, ECW Original Rob Van Dam announced he had asked Vince McMahon about the idea of holding an ECW reunion event.[9]
Although many of the individual matches on the One Night Stand card were announced weeks before the pay-per-view occurred,[10] none of the them got any build-up, with WWE choosing to focus on an "invasion" angle, with several Raw and SmackDown! superstars feuding against wrestlers from the original ECW.
The invasion angle began on the May 9, 2005 edition of Raw, when Raw General Manager Eric Bischoff made a statement regarding the pay-per-view, saying that he would "squash ECW like a bug."[11] The following week, on the May 16 episode of Raw, Tajiri agreed to an Extreme Rules match with Chris Benoit. In the middle of the contest, however, Bischoff came out to stop it, and announced anything related to ECW was banned from Raw. He also vowed to "destroy" ECW with the help of the Raw superstars chosen to compete at the pay-per-view.[12] Bischoff planned an ECW funeral for the May 23 episode of Raw but was interrupted by WWE Chairman Vince McMahon. McMahon spoke of his support for the ECW reunion and his financial interest in bringing back the promotion. Paul Heyman then came out and reminded McMahon that, while he does not own ECW, he still has control of it. Heyman also said that he welcomed Bischoff's invasion, claiming, "You may light a fire that you can't put out." Heyman then lit the funeral wreath ablaze. In a rematch from the previous week, Benoit defeated Tajiri in an Extreme Rules match after locking in the Crippler Crossface.[13] The following week, Bischoff set up a Tables match between Edge and Benoit.
Benoit attempted a diving headbutt with Edge on the table, but Lita moved Edge off the table. At that point, Bischoff sent several Raw superstars to the ring to assault Benoit, with Gene Snitsky booting Benoit in the face. Edge then put Benoit through the table with a Powerbomb for the victory.[14] The feud between WWE brands also spread over to SmackDown!. On the May 26, 2005 edition of SmackDown!, Kurt Angle stated that ECW was a low-class promotion, that he would be part of the WWE invasion of One Night Stand, and that he would take SmackDown! volunteers with him.[15] A week later, Angle asked Tazz to join him in the invasion. On the same episode of SmackDown!, John "Bradshaw" Layfield (JBL) announced he would be joining Angle in invading the PPV.[16] When Tazz rejected the offer, Angle reacted by assaulting Tazz and leaving him bleeding in the ring.[17]
On the June 6, 2005 edition of Raw, Benoit defeated Snitsky in an Extreme Rules match by hitting a diving headbutt. The ECW Originals made their debut on WWE television as Tommy Dreamer, Rhyno, Balls Mahoney, Axl Rotten, The Sandman, and other ECW Originals attacked Bischoff's Raw invaders, with ECW Originals the Dudley Boyz hitting a Dudley Death Drop on Raw invader Maven.[18][19] Benoit was drafted to SmackDown! on the June 9, 2005 episode, and he faced JBL in the main event with the ECW Originals at ringside cheering on Benoit. JBL's Cabinet was also at ringside, as well as Carlito, Matt Morgan and Kurt Angle. Benoit locked in the Crossface on JBL, but Angle interfered and broke the submission hold, resulting in a disqualification. A brawl broke out between the ECW Originals and WWE Invaders, with ECW coming out on top before One Night Stand.[17]

Before the event aired live on pay-per-view, an edition of Extreme Heat aired on Spike TV, showing footage from the build-up to the event.[21] The event started with a speech from ECW commentator Joey Styles,[2] who was greeted with an "ECW" chant. Styles welcomed the fans to One Night Stand before introducing the color commentator for the evening, Mick Foley.[1]
The first match of the event was Lance Storm versus Chris Jericho. Storm was accompanied to the ring by Dawn Marie in what would be his last match before retirement.[2] During the match, a "Chris Candido" chant broke out, a reference to the recently deceased superstar who was a tag team partner of Lance Storm in ECW.[1][21] Jericho locked in the Walls of Jericho on Storm, but Marie jumped on the ring apron and distracted the referee. Jason and Justin Credible interfered, with Credible hitting Jericho with a kendo stick. Storm got the pinfall on Jericho for the victory.[1][2][21]
A tribute video played next, highlighting the wrestlers from ECW that had died between the promotion's end in 2001 and One Night Stand.[1][22] A three way dance was next, with Tajiri facing Little Guido Maritato and Super Crazy. Tajiri was accompanied to the ring by The Sinister Minister and Mikey Whipwreck, and Guido was accompanied by his fellow F.B.I. members. One of the highlights of the match occurred when Super Crazy hit a moonsault off the balcony onto all the members of the F.B.I. Guido was the first eliminated when Whipwreck hit a Whipper Snapper while the referee was distracted. Tajiri picked up the three count to eliminate Guido. Super Crazy won the match after hitting a moonsault off the top rope onto Tajiri, getting the three-count in the process.[1][2][21]
Next came singles Luchador action, as Psychosis faced SmackDown! superstar and ECW Original Rey Misterio, Jr. Misterio won the match at the seven-minute mark after hitting his signature move, the 619, followed by the West Coast Pop.[2] The two later revealed that they were disappointed with the way their match panned out.[23] After the contest, the SmackDown! crusaders entered the Hammerstein Ballroom. They consisted of Kurt Angle, JBL and his Cabinet, Carlito and Matt Morgan. The crowd chanted, "You Suck Dick" and "Fuck You SmackDown!" as they entered the arena.[1][21] Joel Gertner attempted to interview the invaders, but Angle took the microphone out of his hand and JBL pushed him to the ground. JBL and Angle cut a promo, with the crowd continuing to chant, "You Suck Dick", to which Angle replied with "Your MOTHER taught me how". Angle stated, "The last time I was at an ECW event I walked out halfway through because it sucked". The crowd continued to chant, "Shut the Fuck Up", while JBL spoke.
Rob Van Dam (RVD) and Bill Alfonso interrupted the promo, with RVD stating it had nothing to do with SmackDown!. RVD claimed that WWE deserved no credit, that the interview was a shoot with no scripts, and that missing One Night Stand was worse than missing WrestleMania.[1][2][21] The promo was interrupted when Rhyno hit Van Dam with a Gore. Sabu then showed up and had a match with Rhyno. Sabu won the match with Van Dam's help as he hit a Van Daminator on Rhyno before Sabu hit the Arabian Skullcrusher on Rhyno through the table for the victory.[1][2]
The Raw crusaders, which included Eric Bischoff, Jonathan Coachman, Edge, Christian, Tyson Tomko, Snitsky, La Résistance and William Regal, entered the building. Chris Benoit versus Eddie Guerrero followed, with Benoit making Guerrero tap out with the Crossface.[2] During this match, several anti-Lita chants could be heard, including "Lita's Got Herpes" and "I Fucked Lita".[21] After the Benoit versus Guerrero match was over, Gertner again tried to interview the crusaders and begged Bischoff for a job. He was not successful, and Bischoff poured his drink over Gertner, saying, "ECW Sucks".[1][21]
Mike Awesome versus Masato Tanaka followed, and Joey Styles made comments during the match about Awesome that were later criticized. At one point, after Awesome hit a high-flying suicide dive, Styles said, "And it's a shame he didn't succeed in taking his own life."[21] Nearly two years after the match, Awesome committed suicide. Awesome won the match after powerbombing Tanaka through a table on the outside of the ring and followed it with a Suicide Dive, getting the pinfall.[1][2]
ECW owner Paul Heyman then cut a promo in the ring, with the crowd chanting, "Thank You Paul" and rising for a standing ovation. After thanking several people, including Tod Gordon, Heyman turned his attention to the Raw and SmackDown! invaders. He first spoke to Eric Bischoff, stating that Bischoff was in "our (ECW's) house". Heyman turned to Edge and said, "Hide your wives, its Edge". Heyman shouted at Edge, "Matt 'Freaking' Hardy", a person who was not contracted with WWE at the time. A huge "We Want Matt" broke out in the Hammerstein Ballroom.[21] He then commented that the only reason JBL was WWE Champion for a year was because Triple H did not want to work Tuesdays (a reference to the day SmackDown! is taped).[1][2]
The Dudley Boyz then faced Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman in the main event.[24] As the match was about to begin, the bWo, a stable consisting of Hollywood Nova, Stevie Richards and The Blue Meanie entered the ring. Kid Kash interfered, and Balls Mahoney and Axl Rotten then came to the ring with steel chairs and took out the bWo. They attacked all three members of the bWo before hitting Nova with a steel chair twice. Styles made a reference to Simon Dean, the character Nova played with WWE, stating, "That's more painful than being Simon Dean on national TV."[21] When the match eventually started, it involved trash cans, cheese graters and street signs. Justin Credible and Lance Storm interfered, attacking Dreamer and Sandman. Francine, Dreamer's former manager,[24] entered the ring and delivered a low blow to Dreamer. Beulah McGillicutty attacked Francine, sparking a catfight. The Dudley Boyz eventually won with the help of Spike Dudley, as they sent Dreamer through a flaming table with a Powerbomb to get the victory. The Dudleyz attempted to attack McGillicutty before Sandman attacked them with a Singapore cane. Sandman shouted for a beer repeatedly.[1][2] Stone Cold Steve Austin then made his way to the ring, with the ECW Originals coming out moments later. Austin asked the crusaders to come to the ring. A huge brawl occurred, with the Originals fighting the Crusaders. The crowd chanted "We Want Taz", which brought Taz to the ring and he then locked Kurt Angle in the Tazmission. During the brawl, JBL legitimately attacked Blue Meanie, causing him to bleed.[25] The Originals came out on top, as The Dudley Boyz hit the Dudley Death Drop on the Crusders' leader, Benoit hit Bischoff with a diving headbutt and Mysterio hitting the 619 on the Raw General Manager. Austin asked for Bischoff's thoughts on the event while on the ground, and Bischoff replied, "Fuck ECW". Austin then hit the Stone Cold Stunner on Bischoff to end the show.[1][2][21]
After the show went off the air, the ECW wrestlers left the ring one at a time, but Dreamer stayed in the ring. He bowed to the ECW logo as the crowd chanted, "Thank You Tommy". The Dudley Boyz came back to the ring and hugged Dreamer, with Buh Buh saying to Dreamer, "This is all for you".[25]
According to reports, many people backstage were very happy with the way One Night Stand went and many former ECW wrestlers that had worked the pay-per-view described it as a "fun" event.[22][23] 325,000 people bought the event on pay-per-view.[26] Many tried to order it through WWE's official website, but the website was shut down because not enough bandwidth was available.[27]
WWE adopted One Night Stand as an annual pay-per-view event. The event returned to the Hammerstein Ballroom for ECW One Night Stand 2006, and the event was used as a yearly pay-per-view until 2009 when its name was changed to WWE Extreme Rules.

Well, this really isn't breaking news. Anyone paying attention knows what monsters these ISIS maniacs are, and their particularly cruel treatment of gays mostly involves throwing them off rooftops. Yet the "mainstream" media and Democrats conveniently ignore this fact while bashing Republicans and calling them names.
The clown in the White House, who's been anointed as our first gay president, hasn't uttered a peep about these atrocities. Heck, since he's covered up intel about ISIS leading up to the 2012 election, don't expect any comment from him. He's busy babbling about the weather. So is there anyone out there in the media, other than a couple of lone outlets, going to report on this?
Before a crowd of men on a street in the Syrian city of Palmyra, the masked Islamic State group judge read out the sentence against the two men convicted of homosexuality: They would be thrown to their deaths from the roof of the nearby Wael Hotel.
He asked one of the men if he was satisfied with the sentence. Death, the judge told him, would help cleanse him of his sin.
"I'd prefer it if you shoot me in the head," 32-year-old Hawas Mallah replied helplessly. The second man, 21-year-old Mohammed Salameh, pleaded for a chance to repent, promising never to have sex with a man again, according to a witness among the onlookers that sunny July morning who gave The Associated Press a rare first-hand account.
"Take them and throw them off," the judge ordered. Other masked extremists tied the men's hands behind their backs and blindfolded them. They led them to the roof of the four-story hotel, according to the witness, who spoke in the Turkish city of Reyhanli on condition he be identified only by his first name, Omar, for fear of reprisals.
Notorious for their gruesome methods of killing, the Islamic State group reserves one of its most brutal for suspected homosexuals. Videos it has released show masked militants dangling men over the precipices of buildings by their legs to drop them head-first or tossing them over the edge. At least 36 men in Syria and Iraq have been killed by IS on charges of sodomy, according to the New York-based OutRight Action International, though its Middle East and North Africa coordinator, Hossein Alizadeh, said it was not possible to confirm the sexual orientation of the victims.
The fear of a horrific death among gay men under Islamic State rule is further compounded by their isolation in a deeply conservative society that largely shuns them.
Many Muslims consider homosexuality to be sinful. Gay men are haunted constantly by the possibility that someone, perhaps even a relative, will betray them to the militants — whether to curry favor with IS or simply out of hatred for their sexual orientation. Islamic State group fighters sometimes torture suspected homosexuals to reveal their friends' names and search their laptops and mobile phones. Even among IS opponents, gays find little sympathy. Some in the public who might be shocked by other IS atrocities say killings of gays is justified. Syrian rebel factions have killed or abused gays as well.
A 26-year-old Syrian gay man told the AP that even two years after fleeing to Turkey, he wakes up shaken by nightmares that he is about to be hurled from a building. The man spoke on condition that he be identified as Daniel Halaby, the name he now uses in his activism tracking IS atrocities, and that the city in Turkey where he lives not be named for his own safety.
Halaby says a childhood friend who became radicalized and joined IS betrayed him to the militants in 2013, forcing him to flee his home city of Aleppo.
"He knew everything about me, such as being secular and gay. … I am sure he is the one who gave my name to Daesh," he said, using the Arabic acronym for the Islamic State group.
Read the rest. It's incredibly disturbing. Maybe some of Obama's media sycophants can share it with him as they discuss our impending doom from a minor increase in the temperature.
