The Peace is Lost – But We Can Still Win the War
In the famous story of the Trojan Horse, the Greek army, having failed to conquer the city of Troy despite a 10-year siege, erected a wooden horse inside of which they hid a unit of elite fighters. The Greeks pretended to lift the siege and retreat; the Trojans in celebration pulled the horse into their city as a symbol of their victory. That night, the Greek soldiers crept out of the horse and opened the gates for the rest of the hidden Greek army. Once the Greeks breached the gate, the Trojans had no chance – the Greeks destroyed the city, ending the war.
For over 50 years Israel has had to contend with its own Trojan Horse in the form of the Palestinians – the last 30 of which have been spent seeking a negotiated solution to expurgating them from our midst. But as the blood-smeared pages of the Oslo Accords lay shredded on the graves of thousands of innocent Israelis, and as yet another vulgar spasm of violence is perpetrated against our citizenry, it is time to accept some brutal facts.
1. At least for now, the peace process is dead – The reason is fairly simple – the Palestinians do not want to make peace with Israel.
Former Prime Minister Yitzchak Shamir once noted there are two kinds of peace. He referred to the first as the "shared ideals" peace. This type of peace is enjoyed by parties of similar values, ideals, and goals (think US/Canada), and rarely requires formal memorializing; the synergies of the respective populations make it self-enforcing. The second type is the "absence of war" peace, essentially a formalized cease-fire of indefinite term. The agreement likely resolves border and resource disputes and introduces other diplomatic and economic initiatives. It is in no way, however, a product of some bridging of the cultural void between the parties.
Clearly, a "shared ideals" peace cannot currently be reached with the Palestinians. Palestinian society is composed of three groups: (a) Those that hate Israel/Jews and manifest that hatred in the form of terrorism and other violence; (b) those that hate Israel/Jews and openly support the violent acts perpetrated by their compatriots; and (c) the remainder of Palestinian society, including its leadership, media and religious and educational institutions, whose silence (at best) or empathy (at worse) in the face of that violence makes them wholly complicit in its commission. Some might find my characterization of the latter group as an overly broad brush stroke, particularly considering that it indicts what is likely the largest of the three groups. However, a society is judged not by the acts of its radicals, but rather by its reaction towards those radicals. There is no evidence that the Palestinian leadership unequivocally condemns and rejects such violence (in fact all evidence points to the contrary), nor have we seen a Palestinian peace camp of any significance and strength that consistently and publicly preaches peace, tolerance and coexistence. And for those who would argue that the majority is silenced by the their mortal fear of the rabid minority, consider how Arab society was so willing and able to overcome similar fears in the popular uprisings of the so-called Arab Spring in Bahrain, Syria, Algeria, Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan and Morocco, with rulers being overthrown in Libya, Tunisia, Egypt and Yemen.
As for an "absence of war" peace, while Israel is a signatory to such an agreement with both Egypt and Jordan, there is virtually no chance Israel could reach such a deal with the Palestinians; and even it did, Israel would have no reason to expect the Palestinians would or could guarantee its compliance. In contrast to the foundations of the "shared ideals" peace, the success of an "absence of war" peace does not depend on the warmth between the two societies – success depends solely on the will and the ability of the respective leaderships to ensure its compliance. Unfortunately, unlike in Egypt and Jordan, those two basic elements have never been attributed to a Palestinian leader – Arafat had the ability to enforce a deal, but certainly not the will; and while one may argue whether or not Abbas ever had the will, it is clear that with the rise of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Al Qaida, and now ISIS, he certainly does not have the ability to guarantee compliance.
2. If they are not our peace partners, then the Palestinians are our enemies – As our enemy, the Palestinians will continue to attempt to attack our country, so long as they believe it is in their interest to do so. As sobering and disconcerting as that may be, it is no less axiomatic.
3. The Government of Israel is duty bound to protect its citizens from such aggression, as it would from any other enemy – While seemingly obvious, this has oftentimes been diluted or even waived in the name of preserving the diplomatic process of Oslo. Now that the peace process has been rendered stillborn, the government is no longer hamstrung to make that lethal calculation.
4. In order for maximize its defensive prospects, the government must position the State of Israel and its military in a manner that best capitalizes on its strengths of deterrence and defense – Israel is certainly at its most invincible when its citizen-army can face the enemy, and most vulnerable when (as with the The Trojan Horse) the enemy is a Fifth Column attacking its citizen-civilians from within. Therefore, we must establish a clear separation between us and the Palestinians, like we have with all other populations bordering Israel, friend and foe alike.
5. Israel will not remove the Palestinians from Yehudah and Shomron – No matter what percentage of Israeli society may prefer it, the State of Israel cannot forcibly remove 2,000,000 people to Jordan or elsewhere, nor will the IDF kill them all. That talk may serve as a momentary balm to the inflamed passions of those who voice it, but ultimately it is ludicrous as a strategy to rely upon.
6. If we cannot force them to part from us, then we must force ourselves to unilaterally part from them – The principles of this concept were first articulated in the Allon Plan, drafted by Yigal Allon immediately after the Six-Day War. Recognizing the competing imperatives of avoiding the demographic disaster of incorporating the Palestinians into the Israeli state and the need for defensible borders, the Allon Plan called for Israel to annex the western face of the Yehudah and Shomron mountains, as well as East Jerusalem, The Etzion bloc, the Jordan Valley and a corridor to Hebron (It was later modified to include the Ariel Bloc as well). While Allon contemplated that the rest would become either Jordanian or Palestinian sovereignty, it is clear that Jordan would want no part of such a deal, which leaves the Palestinians as the only viable authority.
The devil, as always, is in the details. While a modified Allon Plan would retain sovereignty over a significant majority (by some counts, over 85%) of Jews currently living in Yehuda and Shomron, the rest would need to be resettled within Israel's new boundaries – of course, this would need to be handled in a far more sensitive and compassionate manner than the disastrous policy and strategy executed as part of the Gaza disengagement. Similarly, those Arabs residing within the areas retained by Israel, mostly in Jerusalem, would have to either accept residency status or move to the new Palestinian entity. Considering there are about 300,000 Arabs in Jerusalem and, according to a recent poll, over 52% of them would prefer to remain in Israel under any deal, less than 150,000 Arabs would be required to leave (which is far more plausible than uprooting 2,000,000 people, particularly when now they would be moved to a recognized Palestinian entity). If we can be expected to move some of our citizens to disengage, we can move some of theirs as well. This would have a marginal effect on Israel's population – even if all Arab residents of Jerusalem would decide to stay, that would only increase the country's population by about 3.5% – hardly the obvious social, religious, economic catastrophe that would ensue from absorbing 4,000,000 new residents and giving them freedom of movement within all of Israel's borders.
Let's be clear – such a plan could likely lead to war someday with the PA or their successors. But, aren't we at war now anyway? And right now, we cannot defend ourselves because they can walk freely in our midst, and we can't punish them militarily because they don't have a defined address. Over the last 20 years Israel has suffered almost 3 times(!) the number of casualties as a result of terrorism emanating from areas under our control than in battle (approx. 10,500 dead/wounded vs. 3,900); and yet casualties from terror drastically decreased following the disengagement from Gaza. There is a better chance of survival when facing your enemy on the battlefront than with your back to him while waiting at a bus stop or praying in a synagogue.
There is no perfect solution that will guarantee our safety. But, there is almost 70 years of history to say that we as a nation are strongest and ultimately safest we are able to face our enemy on the battlefront, rather than on the home front. After four wars in our first 25 years, we have not gone to war with Egypt, Jordan and Syria for the past 42 years – with or without a peace deal – because we repeatedly kicked them in the teeth, and thereafter maintained defensible borders.
We are not going to convince our enemy to be our friend – they clearly don't deserve right now to be equal members of our society, and many of them don't want to be anyway – they simply want to murder Jews and destroy the State of Israel. And even if someday they miraculously change their stripes and become a peaceful community, we would still not want to embrace them as citizens, as it would destroy the single most necessary element for Jewish survival on this planet – the preservation of the Jewish character and majority of the State of Israel. And the concept of maintaining the status quo, quasi-governing a massive foreign population for tens, if not hundreds of years, is both impractical and against our collective ethos
Some may ask – but why give this away for nothing? Why not get something in return? The answer is simple; the only thing they can offer us in return is peace – but there is no one to talk to, no one to trust and no one strong enough to uphold their end of the deal. It would be a worthless piece of paper to us. And in a peace agreement, we would have to give up WAY more than what we can otherwise cede unilaterally.
Finally, this is no time to for chest-beating or digging in our heels in the name of pride. We need to work within the current reality, not wish for a different one. Sun Tzu, the famous Chinese general and military strategist said: "The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom." It is high time we heed that advice and focus on the protection and good service of the State of Israel.
At this point, the peace is lost – but that doesn't mean we have to lose the war as well.

dogwood confetti on the sidewalk
The Teacup Chronicles is one of the blogs I read regularly. Danielle's wonderful writing, yummy recipes and insights make me feel calm and leave me seeing the world as a more magical place (we all could use more of that, yeah?). One of her regular features is called "Ah, is this not happiness" where she is documenting 33 moments in her life when she felt truly happy. Her inspiration comes from 16th century Chinese scholar and playwright named Chin Shengt'an. Read about his practice here.
I love this idea. I did something similar a while back with the My Sacred Life posts. But then I had a baby and forgot all about them. (Along with lots of other stuff, I'm sure. mom-brain is a wicked, wicked thing.)
But I feel called to do this, so I'm starting today with "Ah, is this not happiness? #1":
I drove up to the garden alone. There was physical labor to be done, and that is easier if three-year-olds are otherwise cared for. When I arrived I greeted Steve, the man who owns the land, and my garden-mate, Marta, and we said we were glad the morning was a bit overcast and cool. A few minutes later it started to rain, but we had a fence to build. So we plodded down to the garden and dug some post holes. Tamped the wet dirt. Filled cement on the corner posts so they wouldn't pull in. Hammering the fencing into place with the tacks was my job and it felt good to do it. Pounding. Out. Frustrations. Rhythms. Echoes. My shoes sank down into the mud each time I braced for the blows, and I was soaked. I smiled looking out over the lake feeling the heat from labor and the cool from rain. It was perfect.
Ah, is this not happiness?

The risk of concussion in certain high-impact sports seems so glaring that Dr Bennet Omalu cannot believe he is still trying to beat the evidence into the heads of naysayers.
But that is exactly the predicament the Nigerian-born medical doctor faces even to this day, more than 13 years after he first diagnosed Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, or CTE, in several dead National Football League (NFL) players.
"I am not anti-sports," he stressed in a phone interview with The Straits Times arranged by cinema operator Golden Village.
"But high-impact sports like football, boxing, ice hockey, mixed martial arts and rugby are dangerous for our children," added Dr Omalu, now an American citizen and the chief medical examiner of San Joaquin County in California.
"There are hundreds of alternatives. Instead of a helmet, give a child a racquet."
It is a similar message to the heartfelt plea titled Don't Let Kids Play Football the 47-year-old penned in last month's New York Times op-ed pages.
Last September, United States-based researchers identified the degenerative disease CTE - widely believed to stem from repetitive trauma to the head, leading to conditions such as memory loss, depression and dementia - in 96 per cent of former NFL players that the lab had examined.
A settlement, approved last year by a federal judge, could cost the league US$1 billion (S$1.42 billion) over 65 years with roughly 5,000 former gridiron players who have sued it over past head injuries.
Dr Omalu's battle to study and publicise CTE in the face of opposition from the NFL is brought to the big screen in the movie Concussion - he is portrayed by Hollywood star Will Smith - which opens in Singapore this week.
The 122-minute medical drama has been tipped as a contender at next month's Academy Awards but for Dr Omalu, who has seen the film at least six times, its impact was felt much earlier.
He said: "Many nights I wept and I wished I never came in contact with traumatic brain injury...
"But what made me continue was when I realised that the retired players were suffering in silence, in obscurity.
"There was nobody to speak for them, in fact they were ashamed of themselves thanks to the culture of machismo pervasive in the NFL."
Even the Beautiful Game, or soccer as the Americans call it, was not spared from criticism by Dr Omalu. At the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Uruguayan Alvaro Pereira was knocked out after being accidentally hit in the head by England's Raheem Sterling.
Pereira was later allowed to continue playing.
"I wouldn't classify soccer as a high-impact sport. The aim of the game is not to hit your opponent. But there are some areas to consider."
Added the father-of-two: "Instead of 11-a-side, can we reduce the number of players on each side and lower the risk of collisions? Can we take out heading in youth competitions?
"It's about management of risk and how we can minimise repeated trauma to the head. It's about evolving our attitudes."
Last November, US Soccer, the governing body of the sport in the country, banned heading for children aged 10 and under while those 11 to 13 would have headers limited in training.
Comprehensive precautions are taken in Singapore to ensure the safety of players, noted Singapore Rugby Union (SRU) general manager George Danapal.
All SRU league games, tournaments and training by the national men's and women's squads are accompanied by an ambulance service provider that has been trained according to the concussion regulations of World Rugby.
Noted Danapal: "We follow these guidelines very strictly."
Added Dr Omalu: "This was never about the NFL or football... But what are we doing for our children to educate and teach them.
"In the past, the majority of parents claimed they were unaware of the inherent risks in high-impact sports and repeated blows to the head.
"Now we know its harmful effects and it is our duty to protect our children."
•Concussion opens in Singapore tomorrow.

A store front from the faux railroad station setup inside the Railroad Museum Of Pennsylvania in Strasburg, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
This was my first experiment with using rotary processing for film development. I bought a cheap used Unicolor Uniroller 352 auto-reversing roller base off of eBay and an older model Paterson Tank System 4 which features a screw on lid instead of the modern ones that have the press on lid. I inserted the loaded MOD 54 six sheet 4x5 film insert that I already had into the Paterson tank with 1000ml of diluted Rodinal developer and placed a one gallon jug of water to the left of the roller base to block the Paterson tank from creeping off the roller base as it rotates. The MOD 54 site states that the MOD 54 wasn't designed for rotary processing but it worked out perfectly in this test. The key is to use that older tank with the screw on lid. I used the processing times suggested by the Massive Dev Chart for HP5+ in Rodinal 1:50 dilution for a JOBO rotary processor, 7 minutes 25 seconds, and I got proper negative density with even development. I'm a very happy camper. I'll have to experiment a little more to see what the actual minimum amount of chemical is that will fully cover all three sheets of film on each side of the MOD 54 since one of the goals of this exercise is to cut down on the amount of developer, stop bath and fixer that is used per developing batch.
Technical details:
Busch Pressman Model D 4x5 large format press camera.
Graflex Optar 135mm F4.7 lens in a Graphex shutter.
Ilford HP5+ B&W film, shot at ISO 400.
Exposure was 12 seconds at F32.
Developed in Adox Rodinal 1:50 dilution for 7 minutes and 25 seconds minutes @ 20 degrees Celsius using a Mod54 insert in an older Pattern System Tank # 4 placed on Unicolor Uniroller 352 auto-reversing rotary base.

The International Franchise Association has a new chair: Shelly Sun, CFE. The co-founder and co-CEO of BrightStar Care is picking up where NRD Capital founder Aziz Hashim left off by tacking the biggest challenges facing franchising today. Sun recently talked to Franchise World about her plans to keep the industry moving forward.
"The most critical issues facing IFA and the franchising industry overall include rolling back regulations, passing a legislative fix to joint employer and building a pro-growth, pro-business environment with tax reform and labor changes that business can absorb and remain competitive," said Sun.
Sun has a long history of advocating on behalf of the franchising industry. And as chairwoman, she plans to leverage her experience to ensure that the franchising community has a promising future filled with potential.
"The top proprieties for the association in 2017 include the NLRB legislative solution to retain the long-standing definition of a franchisor and franchisee, rolling back the exempt threshold changes, and addressing the meteoric rise in health care costs is also important to our members."

Just when you thought airplane seats had reached their squishiest, someone invents something squishier... but it's also pretty brilliant.
Airbus has filed a patent for a new, double-decker seating arrangement that has passengers literally stacked on top of each other to save space. But it isn't the worst idea. Hear us out!
The way the seats are configured, passengers on both levels can recline their seats until they're pretty much flat. No more legroom squishiness! No more seat recliner wars! You'll just have to deal with "a single stair or ladder" to get to your bunk bed of a seat.
Yeah, it looks squishy in there...
...but check out all that recliner space!
The patent recommends the design for business class cabins.
Currently, when someone reclines the seat in front of you, there's less distance between you and the other passenger's seat. In this scheme, reclining your seat would actually create more space between your seat and the person in the seat below you. As the patent demonstrates in the figure above, "Movement of its supporting surface (18,20) from the upright seating position into the reclined lying position results in an increase of a distance between the supporting surface (18) of the first seat (12) and the supporting surface (20) of the second seat (14)."
Don't get too excited (or terrified), because you likely won't see these seats on planes anytime soon... or ever. Most Airbus patents remain just ideas on paper, never actually making it into the sky.
"Airbus files some 600 patents each year in order to protect its intellectual property," Airbus Head of Media Stefan Schaffrath told HuffPost in an email. "This doesn't necessarily mean that all of the patents are adopted on an aircraft."
In the case of the "flying donut" seats, this is a very good thing. Airbus also debuted an idea for passenger isolation helmets last year, the likes of which we've yet to see in real life.
Their sleeping box, however, doesn't sound like such a bad idea...

Michael Caton-Jones' sequel, "Basic Instinct 2" (released in India in April 2006), has Stone again as a novelist penning crime thrillers in a movie that fails to grab your attention, despite the aging actress' effort to seduce you with sex and excitement. We do have a detective like Michael Douglas, portrayed by David Thewlis (as Roy Washburn), but unlike the original, it is a pscho-analyst ( David Morrissey as Dr Michael Glass) who falls for Stone's fatal charm.
There are two extremely provocative scenes in Caton-Jones' film: the opening scene of Catherine Tramell (Stone) of pleasuring herself while driving through London. The man beside her may have something to do with her state of orgasmic delight, and when in the height of it all, a moaning Tramell plunges her car into the Thames, we know that the man will not live. The second clip that is meant to evoke and arouse is the one where we see Dr Glass trailing Tramell into a brothel where she subjects herself to violent sex.
It now becomes clear that the director is desperate to transport an aging, though admittedly very well preserved, Stone back in time. Does he succeed ? Hardly, I would think, because to begin with, the style and plotline suggest that Caton-Jones is trying to parody "Basic Instinct 1" with very little success. Caton-Jones' does not achieve Verhoeven's sleek feel, and in the sequel, two wonderful actors, Rampling (remember her in Francois Ozon's "Swimming Pool", where she is a reclusive writer?) and Thewlis are shamefully wasted in insignificant parts.
In the final analysis, "Basic Instinct 2" has all the ingredients of boredom, and only a diehard fan of Stone would like to pull through the two-hour drama that has, well, little of drama and more of cliches.

The course itself is not bad, if you do not have previous knowledge in gamification. It's a good introduction that covers a few important aspects of this relatively new discipline. But you can feel many times that many of the lessons are already out of date (just take a look at the examples the teacher provides) and the situation of the market the teacher describes is gone. There are new issues and new challenges. Another important flaw, from my point of view is that he doesn't delve into the analysis of the examples, which would be much more practical, useful and interesting than trying to cover the course with this kind of pseudo-academic patina.

It's a great journey full of detailed definition / examples & different layers of the gamification concept pumped with elaborated videos. The course is designed very well & wisely, which is delivering the expected objective seamlessly. As student when I started this course I never thought that Gamification would have such a great impact on human behavior. But know I know I has tremendous powerful tool which can be used anywhere to get the desired output.
I thank you all of them, who put their effort to make this course available for the seekers like me...! A special thank to Mr. Kevin Werbach, Mentors & coursera team.

Community giving continues
CGF reps are going to a homeless shelter of people with illness today to give out donated goods from Regis Salons.
We believe that giving does not always have to mean exposing people who are disadvantaged just to be recognized of doing good deeds. Therefore, no photos will be posted for public viewing to protect privacy of the people but we will have something to present to donor as part of reporting.
Two more giving will take place this month to complete distribution of all goods received. Thank you for following us and for taking the time to read this post.

Lesbian. Such a soft word, mellifluous on the tongue; such a stab in the heart to someone very young, unsure, and afraid.
I love that line, it was worth reading this book just so I could remember that sentence. It's so poetic and in my opinion it still rings true today. It also sums up the book perfectly.
Beebo Brinker is about a young girl who leaves her small town (of closed-minded people) for the big city, she's alone, she feels abnormal and she's terrified of telling any one her secret desires for women.
Yes it's about a young girl's self discovery and has a colourful range of characters some very stereotypical of the era but there's more to it than that. It's surprising how the fundamental issues brought up in a book first published over 50 years ago are still relevant today.
It's quite sad really, all that time has passed yet people, young and old are still being disowned because of their sexuality. We're still experiencing homophobic remarks and everyday sexism in and out the workplace. This madness amazes me!
If you're interested in LGBTQ studies or just enjoy reading lesbian fiction this is a great book. It was an easy read which I love. There's nothing worse than re-reading a paragraph ten times and still not having a clue what you've just read! (Is it just me?).

April Fool's Day Fake Alien Invasion
A Jordanian newspaper's April Fool's Day report chronicling a late-night visit by 10-foot-tall aliens in flying saucers sparked public panic and almost led to the town's emergency evacuation, officials said Monday.The Al Ghad newspaper published a front-page article April 1 about the fake UFO landing near the desert town of Jafr, some 300 kilometres from the capital, Amman. The report said the UFOs lit up the whole town, interrupted communications and sent fearful residents streaming into the streets.
Jafr's mayor, Mohammed Mleihan, got caught up in the paper's prank and said he sent security authorities in search of the aliens.
"Students didn't go to school, their parents were frightened and I almost evacuated the town's 13,000 residents," Mleihan told the Associated Press. "People were scared that aliens would attack them."
Wow, looks like someone went through a lot of trouble this April Fool's Day. This is one of the largest efforts put into an April Fool's Day prank that I've ever heard of. But they obviously failed to think too far into this, seeing as so many people were terrified. Just imagine what a disaster this would've been if they had evacuated.
Here is the link to my source.

Okay, so we've all been in the situation where the lights have flickered on and off a few times and we've lost internet connection for a few seconds. It's pretty annoying right! But what about when we have a proper power outage? It could be because of an electrical grid overload, a freak of nature such as a severe storm or hurricane, or embarrassingly because you simply forgot to pay your bill. Whatever the reason, here are six smart things you should do in the event.
Power up your gadgets
That's if you have advanced warning of an impending power cut of course. Phones, laptop's, Ipads, can all help to while away the hours if you've got no electricity, but only if you powered them up before hand!
Turn off appliances bar one
It's probably a good idea to go round and switch off all lights and appliances in the event of a power outage. This will prevent a sudden electrical surge when the power returns. However don't forget to leave one light on because you're going to need at least one visual cue that the power is indeed, back on..
Check with your neighbours
There's nothing worse that sitting in a power outage for hours on end, only to look and see that your neighbour's lights are on. It's then that it suddenly dawns on you that the problem was in fact your fuse box all along. For this reason, it might be worth checking with your neighbours to see whether they have power or not. If not, then great! At least you know it isn't just you!
Keep fridge and freezer doors closed
Surprisingly fridges and freezers remain cold for a relatively long time without any power, provided that you keep the cold in. This means keeping the doors shut. Also you might want to think about perishable foods and what needs to be eaten up first.
Dig out your torch, candles and matches
Again if you're aware of an impending power outage then it pays to have flash lights, candles and matches close to hand. There's nothing worse than having to try and rummage through drawers in the pitch black, so knowing exactly where they are is definitely a bonus.
Have fun
Finally, if you really want to while away the time during a power cut, then you need to have some fun. Get out the board games that have been gathering dust in your drawers, get creative and write a letter, or draw a picture (it's great fun in candle light) or pick up that novel you've been thinking about reading for years. You might hate the first 10 pages, but once you get into it, then trust me, the time will really fly by!
If you are in the situation where you have power problems and it doesn't appear to be a power outage then you might want to speak to Static Electrics. We have the experience and the knowledge to deal with any type of electrical problem. Give us a call on 0429 139 039 today and we'll be there as quickly as we can, if not sooner!

So great to know there are honest people in Seattle who do the right thing. RANT To speeding, inattentive drivers in parking lots and parking garages. If there's no speed limited posted, common sense would tell you that the area is small and cars compete with pedestrians for the right of way. Speeding around blind corners or alongside parked cars is dangerous for pedestrians and other drivers. Is poor judgment or selfishness your reason for ignoring safety?

FORT MADISON – It looked like it was going to be a quick evening for the Fort Madison Bloodhound volleyball team on Tuesday night, but Fairfield had a different idea.
After Fort Madison had run out to a quick 2-0 nothing lead, Fairfield took control about a third of the way through game three to force a fourth game at the Hound Dome. The Bloodhounds won that game 25-22 to advance to the Region 7 finals against top-seeded and Class 4A top-ranked Cedar Rapids Xavier. That game is set for Monday at 7 p.m.
Fort Madison had swept two previous meetings with the Trojans and were on pace to sweep them again, pulling out to a quick 14-9 lead in the first game on a five-of-five serving run by senior Amber Dilsaver, that included three kills by Kaeli Hutson. After a scoring correction on a Fairfield point had the score at 16-12, the Trojans closed the gap to 16-15 before the Hounds took the game over.
Dilsaver had four kills in the next nine points sandwiched around a McKenna Fehseke kill and a rare Leigh Johnson attack. Dilsaver added another kill at 24-18 and Olivia Williams put the game away on the next serve.
The writing was on the wall, of sorts, in the second game when the Hounds raced to a 21-16 lead and had the game in hand. But the Trojans made a game of it when the Hounds had three errors in a row to let Fairfield back in at 21-19 with Shaylin Drish scoring on three straight serves. A Bloodhound block stopped the run, but a net violation made it a two-point game 22-20. The teams would trade points to 24-22 before Dilsaver put the game away with a kill at 25-22.
The third game started the same as the others with the teams trading points in the early going with FMHS taking as much as a 4 point lead at 9-5 before the Trojans tied the game at 10 on a kill by junior Alison Godwin. The Trojans got the momentum at 10-12 when Hutson's attack sailed wide right. Senior Courtney Woodley had a block to bring the Hounds back to within one at 11-12 and then Josie Pumphrey put up back-to-back aces to give Fort Madison the lead again 13-12.
The two teams suffered through three more ties at 13, 14, and 16 before Fairfield pushed the lead to 19-16. Dilsaver got the Hounds back within two at 17-19, but then the Trojans went on another 5-0 scoring run with some firepower of their own at the net and led 22-17. A kill by Jillian Wiseman brought the Hounds back within three at 20-23 and forced a Fairfield timeout. The Hounds got the next point out of the timeout, but Fairfield put two more on the board to lead 24-22 and won the game on the next service point.
The Trojans had a tiebreaker in mind going into the fourth game sprinting to an 8-0 run on eight straight service points by junior Kara Jeffrey. Woodley got a kill to get a sideout for Fort Madison. The Hounds' Kamryn Bailey came to the service line and served the Hounds back into the game with seven straight points, aided by two kills from senior Shyla Farmer and a kill by Dilsaver.
Dilsaver, who finished the night 38-42 hitting with 19 kills and three blocks, then tied the game up on a block at 10s and the ties were on again. With the score knotted at 12, 14, 20, and 22, Dilsaver got two back to back kills at 23 and 24 before Williams served for the game at 25-22.
Senior Leigh Johnson, who's led the Hounds all year in assists and setting up the middle and outside hitter, said she was nervous the season might end right there.
"I don't want to be done. This is the last time ever playing high school volleyball with my best friends and I just didn't want to be done," she said.
Johnson pointed to some timing issues and said the team has had some timing issues in the past, but tonight was worse than usual.
"We just needed to connect better. Our passes were off, our sets were off, and our hitting was out of bounds," Johnson said. "We just need to play better."
She said she's played club volleyball with five of the girls from Xavier and Monday will be a tough match.
Bailey was disappointed in his team's aggression during the second half of the match.
"At this point in the season, you have to play every point and there were times tonight we didn't do that as well as we're capable of," he said.
When the third game turned south for the Hounds, Bailey called a timeout to regroup.
"I wanted our kids to swing and hit the ball and we didn't do that," he said. "And it's frustrating because we have the best hitters in the conference and we're not swinging."
He, too, noticed the timing issues Johnson had mentioned, saying the setters and hitters were out of sync at different times during the evening. But he said the squad battled back from an 0-8 deficit to win the match and they'll need to come to play on Monday against the top-ranked Saints.
"Give Fairfield credit for making us work," he said. "They outplayed us in game 3 and jumped out to the 8-0 lead in game 4. Give our kids credit for battling back tying that game up at 10. Kamryn got us going with her serve and that seemed to jump start the passing and our hitting."
He said Xavier, who eliminated the Hounds last year at the same point, will bring good hitting.
"They've got two really good outside hitters and they're going to make us work for everything we get. The other side is that we've got a team that can compete with them if they want to go out and play.
When asked if he was looking for a little more physical play Monday, Bailey gave a one word answer.
Woodley hit 23-26, with seven kills and Feheske ended hitting 27-30 with six kills and Wiseman hit 22-30 with 12 kills and three blocks. Johnson led the Hounds with 43 assists and Bailey led the team with 22-23 serving with three aces.

Margaret Talbot's piece on Cardinal Roger Mahony, who shielded from the law a priest who later admitted to molesting children, was spot-on (Comment, March 11th). When I was a young man, my life was saved by my first therapist, a Roman Catholic priest named John McNeill. He was a compassionate man, who personified the space of possibility between rigid absolutism and eternal damnation. In return for his nearly forty years of service, McNeill was kicked out of the Jesuits because he refused the Vatican's order to cease his ministerial work with gays and lesbians. Last month, Cardinal Mahony received a public rebuke for the hundreds of lives shattered by his egregious coverup in the priest sex-abuse scandal. Two weeks ago, he voted with his peers for the next leader of the Catholic Church. As a practicing therapist myself today, I find this decades-old hierarchical charade beyond repulsive.

I had to watch an episode of House for my school work.
I hate TV.
I hate how everything is broken up into tiny clips, chopped up by ads.
I hate how they build each clip to a roaring emotional rage, so you will stick to the channel even through the ads.
I hate how the roaring emotional swells make you glad for the commercial breaks to let your adrenaline come down.
I hate how every sound, every camera focus, every facial expression is design to jerk at primal emotional reactions. Pain. Rage. Lust. Fear. Danger. Grief.
I hate how well it can work.
I hate the subtle or not so subtle ways they say that living by raw, unrestrained emotion is okay, normal, good.
I hate that it can be so hard to tear one's self away from a very vivid game of emotional puppetry, and yet there is never anything worth taking away from it.
I hate that it always pounds on the most primitive reactions of the body, and never goes deep enough to stir the soul.

I worked more on Boy from the Sea today, but I'm not happy with what I've written. I wanted to give a better picture of the overall situation--explain why Garedin is living in this back of beyond place, what's the deal with Azrin, etc. But what I've written...I'm almost feeling as if I still need to throw in the shipwreck pretty quickly, just to keep the first chapter from getting bogged down in the backstory.
I did make a change. I went with historical English practice, circa the Tudor era, so I now have a baronial couple being Garedin's watchdogs rather than his servants. I have to find ways for the images of the situation in my head to make logical sense--or else decide how to change them.

Last summer we reported on the news that a big-screen adaptation of the popular adventure video game Uncharted: Drake's Fortune was on the way. It originally had Kyle Ward (Hitman 2, Kane & Lynch) on board to write the script, but last November news surfaced that Ward had been replaced by Conan reboot writers, Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer.
But who will direct the Uncharted movie? Well, there's no official confirmation yet but there's news that Sony has already drawn up a shortlist of directors, and included on that list is David O. Russell.
That name may not be readily familiar to you as Russell is not necessarily known for the types of movies we cover here at Screen Rant, nor for films similar to what you'd expect Uncharted to be. Russell has historically tackled indie dramas like Spanking the Monkey and I Heart Huckabees - however, you'll probably know him better as the director of the excellent Three Kings and for the upcoming Christian Bale/Mark Wahlberg boxing drama, The Fighter (see below), which he just finished filming.
So Russell is not the first name I'd think of to direct a movie based on the Uncharted video game, but it's an interesting choice I must admit. However, let it be noted that things are only really at the meetings stage at this point - and to reiterate, Russell is just on a shortlist of directors (the others were not listed) and is not actually the frontrunner.
Evidently Sony is moving full speed ahead with Uncharted and at one point the studio was reportedly considering pushing the movie for a Summer 2011 release to fill a hole in its schedule. However, now that they have the Kevin James comedy The Zookeeper scheduled, its unlikely the studio will push Uncharted for 2011 release.
Uncharted is definitely one of those few video games really suited for the big-screen. Along with Prince of Persia (which comes out this summer), Metal Gear Solid (a movie of which has been talked about for a long time) and Bioshock, Uncharted is a game I think could really work as a cinematic narrative, taking things beyond the gameplay.
Now that they've found writers and pretty soon (I expect) a director, all we really need now is a leading man. Nathan Fillion, anyone?
Is David O. Russell a good choice to direct Uncharted: Drake's Fortune or is he completely unsuited? Do you think Nathan Fillion is a good choice for the lead or do you have someone else in mind?

Transport Research Laboratory tested breakdown firm's crash detection technology
Breakdown recovery firm RAC's telematics technology has received a 92% accuracy score for detecting crash and non-crash events, according to tests by the Transport Research Laboratory (TRL).
The 92% accuracy score was achieved over more than 60 tests. RAC said that the number was "significantly higher" than the industry average of less than 70% for on-road systems.
The results mean that RAC's telematics technology is not only able to detect when a collision has taken place, but at slow speeds can also distinguish between a collision with another vehicle and whether a driver has hit a kerb or a speed bump.
The company said this distinguished its technology from most other telematics offerings.
RAC said the crash detection capability would be of benefit because collisions at less than 10 miles per hour result in more than double the number of disputed accident claims than at higher speeds.
RAC Telematics managing director Nick Walker said: "The results from TRL provide unrivalled independent verification of the crash detection accuracy of the RAC Telematics system, which is hugely beneficial to our customers looking for a product they can trust to report events with the highest accuracy.
"By monitoring both acceleration and vibration signatures at the point of an incident, RAC Telematics is able to identify whether a crash has, or hasn't, taken place with a 92% certainty.
"Crucially, our technology will identify a low-speed incident where crashes are often missed or disputed. It will also separate out events known as 'false positives' such as speed bumps and kerb impact, giving significantly more intelligence than traditional methods."
RAC provides telematics units to customers in a range of industry segments, from corporate to SME.

|I made a promise to Ric...that I wouldn't risk the girls growing up without a mother.
— Caroline to Stefan about choosing to run with Josie and Lizzie in I Was Feeling Epic
This is the family relationship between the former-Enhanced Original Vampire-turned-human, Alaric Saltzman, the vampire Caroline Forbes, and the siphoners, Josie and Lizzie Saltzman.
They became a family when it was discovered Caroline was pregnant, as a surrogate mother, to Alaric and his deceased fiancée's (Jo Laughlin) twin daughters. Caroline decided to keep the babies and gave birth to them in This Woman's Work. Caroline then decides to help Alaric raise the babies after he tells her that he plans on taking them out of Mystic Falls. Caroline and Alaric become engaged throughout the three years of helping each other raise the children, which strengthened their family bond as the twins grew older. Alaric and Caroline continue to raise the twins even though their engagement fell through.
During Season Eight, Alaric and Caroline continue to raise their daughters together despite their broken-off engagement. However, due to Damon's influence under Sybil's mind control, the girls are put in danger once again. Once Sybil is put down however, Kai Parker returns and puts their daughters' lives in danger for the second time in their lives. Once everything is resolved after this season and after Stefan's death, Alaric and Caroline turn the Salvatore Boarding House into a school for supernatural youngsters in which their daughters grow up in and attend.
In Season One of Legacies, Alaric primarily interacts with Lizzie and Josie since Caroline is away and recruiting new supernaturals to the boarding school. Josie and Lizzie can only rely on their father for the time being, but this proves to be difficult for the twins due to Alaric's status as Headmaster of the school while also training and mentoring their classmate, Hope Mikaelson. However, Alaric tries to be there for his daughters in anyway he can.
Early life
Throughout The Vampire Diaries Series
In Mommie Dearest, it is revealed by Valerie Tulle that Caroline holds Alaric's thought-to-be-deceased twin daughters in her womb. Alaric and Caroline are overjoyed that she is pregnant with the babies as a surrogate mother.
In This Woman's Work, Caroline must undergo emergency Cesarian section (C-Section) to deliver her babies. Valerie Tulle and Stefan Salvatore assist the nurses in Mystic Falls Hospital as the Heretics also help Valerie deliver the babies. Lizzie and Josie are successfully born as Rayna Cruz threatens their lives.
In Somebody That I Used to Know, Josie and Lizzie are heard inside the house as Alaric opens his front door for Stefan after he knocked. Stefan watches Caroline kiss Alaric on the cheek as she says that she would tuck the daughters in bed that night instead of Alaric. Stefan watches in heartbreak as Caroline ignores him completely as Alaric shuts the door on his face.
In Gods and Monsters, Alaric and Caroline tell their daughters of their Siphoner heritage and they open the Armory together. Caroline and Alaric later break off their engagement, but Caroline promises to stick around as a family.
In Hello, Brother, Alaric shows up at Caroline's house to see their daughters. Alaric then mentions the idea of moving in together, which Caroline goes against. They also discuss the stress it has put on both to raise their twin daughters, especially with Alaric at work at the Armory and Caroline's current relationship with Stefan. Caroline still rejects the idea of moving in together again, again mentioning Stefan and the awkward situation it might pose. This leaves Alaric disappointed before heading back to the Armory to further investigate the creature's vault.
Later, Caroline gets a call that someone showed up to their house while the babysitter was watching Lizzie and Josie. Caroline finds them hiding in her closet and then she interrogates Virginia St. John for invading her home, shortly before Virginia kills herself in Caroline's home.
In Coming Home Was a Mistake, at the end of the episode, Caroline and Alaric figure out from Matt Donovan that Seline, Josie and Lizzie's babysitter, is the second siren. Alaric and Caroline are forced to run home only to find a drawing made by one of their kids holding hands with Seline and with Seline next to a man named, Cade.
In Detoured On Some Random Backwoods Path to Hell,
Throughout The Originals Series
Season Five
In The Tale of Two Wolves, Lizzie and Josie are first seen talking with Caroline in an area of the Salvatore Boarding School. Caroline asks them to help Klaus and Hope Mikaelson , but they begin to bargain with their mother because they want certain things in return if they do help Klaus and Hope. Eventually, Caroline was able to convince them to help Klaus before Alaric subdues Klaus. Caroline is visibly upset when Alaric suddenly shoots Klaus in the back and through the heart with an arrow. Knowing this wouldn't kill Klaus, Alaric locked Klaus up in the basement prison cellar and Caroline later argued with Alaric about their daughters' safety. Eventually, Caroline is able to convince Alaric to use their daughters in saving Hope's life. After Hope turns into a werewolf for the first time ever, Alaric watches as Lizzie and Josie successfully extract the dark magic from inside Hope. Alaric also watches with worry as the twins direct the dark magic into Klaus. As soon as Klaus has the dark magic within him, Alaric immediately takes his daughters away from the spell-site and Klaus.

The greatness of the scene lies in the fact that it is such a wonderful non sequitur--a moment that adds nothing to the plot and which does nothing more than illuminate the psychology of a character who is otherwise a cipher and only in the film to fulfill the necessary cute girl quotiant. Some would call it self-indulgent, but then the best moments in movies usually are.
Yet, in a way, the moment exemplifies exactly the quality that has made Gremlins so unique after all these years--a combination of comedy and horror in which the comedy is often far more savage and frightening than the horror. Some may wonder if the movie even qualifies as a horror film and it could easily be classified as a dark comedy, but in young Miss Cates' confession the truth is revealed--it is a film whose comedy derives from its horror and whose horror comes from its comedy. Gremlins is a film in which the broad humor of slapstick is taken to such an extreme that it becomes deadly and is as a result far funnier than it normally would be. This scene is funny only because it is so incredibly sad. Had it been played for laughs it would have been horrible, but because it is played so sincerely it becomes hilarious, but--and here's the trick that makes it so special--this is by design and not by accident. This incredible juxtaposition of such disparite tones is truly a wonder to behold.
So that leaves us with just one more moment to go in our countdown of the five most memorable moments in Christmas holiday horror history. No hints, but #1 is a doozy and the main reason I decided to undertake this whole project in the first place. Until then, here's a pic from the other scene that earned the future Mrs. Kevin Kline her place in cinema history.
I posted the wrong scene, didn't I?
Oh well, too late to anything about it now....

With the healthcare industry facing chronic talent shortages across all disciplines, yet another worrisome trend is surfacing: CEOs of rural/critical access hospitals are leaving their positions at an alarming rate.
As a top-ranked healthcare executive search firm, Cejka Executive Search understands that CEO turnover is negatively impacting the communities served by these rural healthcare organizations, more and more frequently resulting in limited access to, or even termination of, quality healthcare services.
Thus, we are proud to sponsor Yaffe & Company, as well as Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and the National Rural Health Association (NRHA), in a critical research project to identify the underlying causes of growing CEO turnover, so that as an industry we will be better equipped to identify solutions and reverse this unsustainable trend.
The survey launched May 31, 2018. This study seeks the opinions of current and prior CEOs and Board Chairs of Rural/Critical Access hospitals. The survey takes about seven minutes to complete. It can be accessed at www.ruralceoturnover.com.
Initial results of the survey will be shared at the NRHA Critical Access Hospital Conference on September 27 - 29, 2018, in Kansas City, Missouri.
For more information about our sponsorship or questions about the survey, please contact Mark Madden at 314.236.4585 or email@example.com.

MN Rep. Ilhan Omar Apologizes for Tweet Some People Feel is Anti-Semitic
UPDATE: Rep. Ilhan Omar apologized in a tweet.
Listening and learning, but standing strong ???????? pic.twitter.com/7TSroSf8h1
— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) February 11, 2019
WASHINGTON (FOX 9) – U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota is facing backlash from congressional colleagues for a tweet being described as anti-Semitic.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi leads a group of top Democrats calling on Omar to apologize. The statement reads:
"Anti-Semitism must be called out, confronted and condemned whenever it is encountered, without exception.
"We are and will always be strong supporters of Israel in Congress because we understand that our support is based on shared values and strategic interests. Legitimate criticism of Israel's policies is protected by the values of free speech and democratic debate that the United States and Israel share. But Congresswoman Omar's use of anti-Semitic tropes and prejudicial accusations about Israel's supporters is deeply offensive. We condemn these remarks and we call upon Congresswoman Omar to immediately apologize for these hurtful comments.
"As Democrats and as Americans, the entire Congress must be fully engaged in denouncing and rejecting all forms of hatred, racism, prejudice and discrimination wherever they are encountered."
Sunday night Omar tweeted:
AIPAC! https://t.co/UdzaFUEfrh
— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) February 11, 2019
The American Jewish Committee immediately responded, telling Rep. Omar "suggesting that a Jewish organization is buying off American politicians is both demonstrably false and stunningly anti-Semitic.
.@IlhanMN, Suggesting that a Jewish organization is buying off American politicians is both demonstrably false and stunningly anti-Semitic. American politicians are pro-Israel because Americans are (https://t.co/QMr1oCcnHX). Apologize. pic.twitter.com/VdJh0W8sx1
— AJC (@AJCGlobal) February 11, 2019
Monday, congressional members, including some Democrats, are critizing her comments. Rep. Eliot Engel, a Democrat representing New York's 16th Congressional district and chair of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs on which Omar sits, released at statement that read:
"Anti-Semitism in any form is unacceptable, and it's shocking to hear a Member of Congress invoke the anti-Semitic trope of 'Jewish money.' I fully expect that when we disagree on the Foreign Affairs Committee, we will debate policy on the merits and never question members' motives or resort to personal attacks. Criticism of American policy toward any country is fair game, but this must be done on policy grounds.
"As I have said, as Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, I will ensure support for Israel remains strong and bipartisan and I will shine a light on the evil of anti-Semitism and the danger it poses. I will make the case to Members on both side of the aisle that our alliance and friendship with Israel are important to our countries' shared interests, security, and values. This has always been the basis of the U.S.-Israel relationship, and it's the reason why members on both sides have been strong supporters of that relationship."
Rep. Jerry Nadler, House Judiciary chairman and a Democrat representing New York's 10th Congressional district, released a separate statement:
"It is deeply disappointing and disturbing to hear Representative Ilhan Omar's (MN) choice of words in her exchange with a journalist yesterday, wherein she appears to traffic in old anti-Semitic tropes about Jews and money. Her words are deeply hurtful and offensive, particularly as they build on a previous comment she made about Jews "hypnotizing" the world in support of Israel – another old trope born of hate-filled texts like the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
"While of course our nation's leaders are free to debate the relative influence of a particular organization on our country's policy-making process, or the factors that make our system of governance imperfect, there is an expectation of leaders—particularly those with a demonstrated commitment to the cause of justice and equality—that they would be extremely careful not to tread into the waters of anti-Semitism or any other form of prejudice or hate. Rep. Omar failed that test of leadership with these comments.
"And even as this is the case, one must also note and be concerned about the concerted Right-wing tactics aimed at advancing their agenda by distracting and dividing those committed to equality and social justice. These tactics have painted some unfairly and we must guard against this as well, because to unfairly accuse someone of a particular hatred undermines the legitimacy of the condemnations when they are truly warranted.
"In this fragile moment in our nation's history, we must all redouble our efforts to engage in policy debates in ways that respect the dignity and humanity of all people.
"Finally, the strong bi-partisan support of Israel in this country is a hallmark of our nation's commitment to the ideals of democracy and self-determination. The overwhelming majority of Members of Congress believe in a solution that provides for two states for two peoples—directly negotiated by the parties—because is it the only way to a meaningful, lasting and secure peace between Israel and the Palestinians that recognizes the needs, interests, and concerns of both peoples. Recent efforts, from both the Left and Right, to push away from such a solution only bring us further from the peace that both sides so desperately need. It is my hope to see such a solution in my lifetime, and I will continue to endeavor, working with my colleagues from all backgrounds and political ideologies, to make that peace a reality."
Fox 9 has reached out to Omar's office for comment.

Hello everyone! Our second recipe in our holiday baking series is Bark! Chocolate Bark! This one is awesome because there is little to no actual baking. If you keep your shoes in your oven, this one's for you. It does require a double boiler though so your probably shouldn't reenact My Drunk Kitchen whilst making this one.
Basic Chocolate Bark
- Vegetable oil cooking spray
- 1 pound milk chocolate, chopped
Coat a 9-by-12 ½ inch rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray, and line with parchment, leaving an overhang on ends
Melt chocolate in double boiler. Pour into baking sheet, and spread in an even layer
Immediately sprinkle toppings over chocolate. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Peel off parchment, and break bark into pieces.
We decided to make a few variations including Fruit & Nut, Peppermint, Pretzel, and Marbled Cranberry Orange! We decided to double the Basic Chocolate Bark recipe, then divide the melted chocolate into four quarters. We set up a tin foil divider so we could arrange two variations of bark on one sheet! Below are the variation ingredients:
Fruit & Nut Bark
Cranberry Orange Marble
After you have made your bark you can package it up to give away for gifts (if you haven't eaten it all)!
~ Sarah & Sean
P.S. You're welcome for introducing you to My Drunk Kitchen, if you hadn't come across it before!
(p.p.s. To make these treats even more special, make sure to buy local ingredients! Check out Nanaimo FoodShare for a comprehensive list of local growers!)
