Breakfast was made much more amusing today courtesy of the Crawley Observer and what the youth of today would no doubt call an epic fail. In such a busy environment as the Obby offices maybe it does only feel like a few months since May 2010…

I have a small readership here (which suits me and I try to keep it that way) but quite a few of them are, or have been, involved in local politics in Crawley or elsewhere. Maybe one of them can enlighten me on something. I am not trying to be provocative or make any sort […]
Wedding Bells

I have just seen the story, tucked away towards the back of the Crawley Observer, about Gordon Seekings getting married to Marcella. They may be Lib Dems, but still… all the best to them. I hope everything goes well.

The magic of Henry Smith
August 1st, 2011 · Comments Off on The magic of Henry Smith · Politics
A couple of weeks ago I wrote a little about our MP, Henry Smith, and his 'hyperactive abstention'. One of the local papers mentioned this and managed to get a response from Henry which was a masterpiece of political answers, showing a level of misdirection that a stage conjuror would be proud of.

County council expenses
April 8th, 2011 · 17 Comments · Politics, Technology
There are a few inconsistancies in the Crawley News story about county councillor expenses which are genuinely baffling. One councillor, Brenda Smith, claims that the council's email system is a secure system which you can't access using your own computer so you have to have county council hardware to access it. Another councillor, Duncan Crow, […]

Johnston Press changes
February 2nd, 2011 · Comments Off on Johnston Press changes · Life
I see that Johnston Press has plans to re-organise and do all their subbing for the south-east region from Horsham. Locally this should not have any impact on the quality of our local papers, but I don't think you can say the same for Portsmouth, Worthing or Hastings. Newsquest did the same thing last year, […]

I don't know if Brian Gardner of Pound Hill is a real person or just a name the Crawley News made up as part of an attempt to bait liberals (with a small l). It would appear that there was a story in last week's paper where somebody said they were gay but they don't […]

Horse rescued from tree

It is one of those headlines that promises so much and delivers so little. When I saw the headline "Horse rescued from tree" pop up in my RSS feed I just had to go to the story. It turns out that the horse was tangled up in a tree stump and was not dangling in […]

A little surprised to find myself not only mentioned a couple of times in this week's Crawley News but also to be quoted. I didn't really think that , being an ex-councillor in Crawley they might be interested in what I have been up to. Must remember that. They harvested a quote from this blog […]

General Requirements
The SightCall integration requires some ports to be open on your network.
When using the RTCCdriver:
- Port TCP 80 (HTTP)
- Port TCP 443 (HTTPS)
Make sure these ports are not filtered on your firewall/proxy.
Network setup for restricted Networks
If you maintain a restricted network and cannot open port 443 for all connections, make sure the following URL schemes and ports are open :
- *.rtccloud.net : TCP 443 (default), optionally you can setup alternative ports 5204 and 11005 from the Admin Console to more easily identify SightCall packets
- *.rtccloud.net : whitelist UDP traffic
- *.sightcall.com: TCP 443
- *.mapbox.com (Enables geolocation)
SSL Interception
Regardless, if you are using Zscaler Cloud Solution or a similar network security solution, you need to disable Deep Packet Inspection/SSL inspection for *.rtccloud.net
Monitoring Internet bandwidth usage
In order to prevent any quality problem during video session, the global network bandwidth usage as well as SightCall specific usage should be monitored. Internet usage should never exceed 90% of the link capacity.
Video quality may be temporarily affected by network congestion.
The network bandwidth must sufficient to support the targeted number of simultaneous video sessions (100- 500 kbps per call depending on the use case).
Implementing QoS
SightCall packets should be tagged as the highest priority streams (real time) to ensure that they will be forwarded as quickly as possible.
Depending on the network configuration, some bandwidth may even be reserved to video sessions.

TAMPA — A new pitching era began Tuesday for the Yankees when Michael Pineda took the bullpen mound at the minor league complex.
Half the battle of succeeding with the Yankees is wanting to be with the Yankees and taking in everything that entails.
When his first day of work was complete, Pineda had a first-to-third smile on his face.
"I'm think I'm ready to go,'' said the big right-hander who came over from Seattle in a trade for Jesus Montero.
The Yankees are going to need Pineda. He knows that the destination is October and the World Series.
"I'm excited because this is my first day practicing with the New York Yankees,'' Pineda said. "I had good work today, good running, lots of good work.''
If you are a Yankees fan, here is the best part; Pineda chose to come early to camp to get comfortable in a new situation. He's 23 years old and knows there is much to learn.
"It's my first time living in Tampa and I don't know what I'm doing here so I wanted to come early and get in a couple practices before spring training starts. I like to come in early,'' he said.
He admitted last season his numbers tailed off in the second half because his arm grew tired from all the pitching of the first half of the season.
Pineda already has struck up a friendship with fellow Dominican, second baseman Robinson Cano.
The 6-foot-7 right-hander has been working this offseason on his changeup and his two-seamer and wants to focus on that during spring training.
The Jan. 14 trade surprised him and when he was first told of the deal by Seattle GM Jack Zduriencik.
"He said I was traded to the Yankees,'' Pineda said. "He had an interpreter and the Latin guy was talking to me in Spanish and (the interpreter) said, 'No way, really.' They told me the Yankees GM would call me in the next 30 minutes and he did. He was excited.''
That was Brian Cashman.
Pineda said he loves the change of teams.
"The Yankees are a good team, they have lots of good players,'' he said. "It felt good. My mother was excited because she had a lot of family in New York and she never had come to America and now she is coming to New York. The whole family was excited.''
He said he will "work hard to help my team make the playoffs.''
Cano has talked to Pineda several times.
"Cano is my friend," Pineda said. "He talked to me at the All-Star Game. When the Yankees were in Seattle he came over to talk to me and said hi and said, 'You're a good guy, you're pitching great, you're focused all the time.' It was nice that he talked to me because I am such a young guy. He talked to me at the All-Star Game a lot. He said he was very excited for me to play in the All-Star Game my first year. It's beautiful. I love him.''
Cano has given Pineda a head's up about playing in New York.
"He told me to focus on my game and work and that New York City is a beautiful team, the best team," he said. "My head is spinning a little bit. He said, 'Don't worry man, I'll prepare you, no worries.''
Injured reliever Joba Chamberlain threw 20 pitches during his third session on a 5-inch, half-mound.
"Another good day," said Chamberlain, who had elbow-ligament replacement surgery in June.
Chamberlain is scheduled to have his status reviewed by orthopedist Dr. James Andrews on Friday and could start throwing off a full mound next week.
Pitchers and catchers are scheduled to report Sunday.
OF Preston Mattingly, the son of the former Yankees star and current Dodgers manager Don Mattingly, is among the prospects working out.
"I'm just trying to be myself and go out and play," Mattingly said. "I've struggled in the minor leagues, and I think a lot of people would have gave up. You've just got to keep working. You'll never know what can happen."
Mattingly, drafted by the Dodgers in 2006, agreed to a minor league contract last month.

Investing in peace with justice was a major emphasis in a 'deliverance' (a multi-section motion) put forward by the Church of Scotland World Mission Council to the Kirk's General Assembly on 25 May 2011.
The deliverance commended the Kairos Palestine document (http://www.kairospalestine.ps/) to the whole church, gave thanks for "Jewish, Christian and Muslim cooperation in upholding the rights of the poor and oppressed in the Middle East and beyond", called for prayer for the witness of Presbyterian and other churches in Syria and Lebanon, backed peacemaking in Israel and Palestine, and encouraged people to volunteer to be mission partners and Ecumenical Accompaniers in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI).
The Rev John P. Renton highlighted the benefits of church twinning arrangements and other awareness ranging activities to encourage Christians in the Middle East - given the enormous challenges many indigenous Christian communities face in a turbulent region.
White felt doves, produced from Bethlehem by L'Arche, the able-bodied and disabled Christian community, were vibrant symbols of the 'investing in peace' dynamic. All participants were urged to buy them, and many did so during proceedings. Other products from Hadeel Palestinian Fair Trade Shop were also highlighted. (www.hadeel.org)
Church of Scotland investment in a 'wellness centre' at the CoS Hotel in Tiberias - which primarily benefits the better off and is not available to poorer Palestinians - was defended on the basis that it raises funds to enable a wider range of peace and justice work, and also provides some modest employment. The issue has been controversial for some time, and a significant number of Kirk members remain dissatisfied with the situation.
The deliverance also expressed strong support for Christian Aid as an official relief, development and advocacy agency of the churches in Britain, while Assembly participants also affirmed the contribution of Tearfund.
The World Mission Council was asked to offer continuing assistance to Christians in North and South Sudan, given the referendum and emergence of two countries from one.
The Government of Pakistan was urged to repeal its country's blasphemy law and to end misuses of this legislation against Christians and others.
The work of the Coptic Evangelical Organisation for Social Services (CEOSS) was singled out for praise in Egypt, and the Kirk Assembly acknowledged the importance of complex patterns of change and people's movements across the region - where the Church of Scotland has strong historic links.

In a move expected to change the face of the University of Michigan—Dearborn, officials announced a student housing development.
[wpcol_1half id="" class="" style=""]
The housing will be called "The Union" and will include apartments for more than 500 students. It is being developed by Urban Campus Communities (UCC), located at 760 and 780 Town Center Drive across from Evergreen Road.
"The Union on Dearborn is a great example of how successful private, public partnerships can work to enhance a community and bring new residents into the city," said Larry Winokur, managing member at UCC.
This 231,791 square foot project will cost the private developer of the property an approximate $30 million, with no financial support from the university.
[wpcol_1half_end id="" class="" style=""]
"Our students have expressed an interest in housing for many years, so we are pleased that this development allows students the opportunity of adjacent housing to enhance their university experience," said Chancellor Daniel Little.
Space will also be created for meeting rooms, student activities, study rooms, and an auditorium. Also featured will be public laundry facilities, common rooms, and a new fitness center. Several room options will be available, including 2, 3, and 4 bedroom units. However, rental fees have not yet been finalized.
These communities will bring a new face to student life, considering the campus now being active and inhabited for 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
FEATURE: A history of student housing at UM-Dearborn
SPORTS: What campus housing means for UM-Dearborn athletics
"This is such an exciting development for the City of Dearborn," said Dearborn Mayor John B. O'Reilly. "We are thrilled that UM Dearborn students will soon be able to call Dearborn home throughout the year and look forward to welcoming them to our community."
UCC purchased the property from Ford Land. It will be operated by Asset Campus Housing, a national manager in student housing facilities.
"Personally, I'm very excited to hear the announcement of student housing. I believe it will take the university to a whole new level as to how prospective students see us," said Dennis Lienhardt, Student Government President.
"It will open many doors within the community and with high school seniors from across Metro Detroit. This is a project SG has always been in support of and we hope to continue to work with administration in providing a student voice to the development. I feel this news is not only great for the university but for anyone who has ever associated themselves with U of M Dearborn. This is a proud moment that we should all celebrate," said Lienhardt.
[nggallery id=9]
Construction will begin with a public groundbreaking celebration on Monday, September 24 at 3:00 p.m.

Bear? Uhh.
Can you tell that I still have autocorrect capitalizing letters, but that I then go back and un-capitalize them. I have no idea. I enjoyed reading ee cummings. Less yelly. I'm gonna shut that off. We'll see if that makes any difference.
My motion capture suit will teach me dvorak. In doing so, it will combine data from brain-wave sensors, digit-movement sensors, and eye movements. I expect to be able to move paragraphs, look up and change spellings of words, all while continuing to add text, eTyping, by beta. Brain waves can easily do this. Tune your sensors. The functionality that this world has to offer h. buh, we've only scratched the surface. I dunno. it's still doing the I's. hmm. off. brb
i like it. uh.
those are my buttons. somebody dust off their old button-making machine! you know the one from the infomercials, you know you bought one!! you political pack rat. unhitch the plow!!! (True story, once during hs track practice with the snarky coach, we sat on the bleachers and he yelled run-faster type taunts at the girls softball team until their coach yelled back at him and made us leave. it was the same comment i laughed at. And, it was a friend of mine who was running to first. The way he said it was more what made me laugh, I like to think. "Unhitch the plow!" Beller, it was more like. One of those skull-rattling screams that's just loud outside because people have to be as loud as they fucking can out of doors every once in a while. Wake up the neighbors.
were i a dj, i would tell listeners whether a band was still together/touring/performing/recording and for how long and what year the album came out and which album it was in the sequence of all of their recordings. that's a more appropriate word, isn't it. i've always enjoyed using "album," though. much like the pop/soda debate, i stick to proper nouns which eliminate the issue. that was in high school, i did that. what else, what else? i wrote my senior English paper on how to build a nuclear bomb. yup. valedictorian, (the reunion-shirking) class president, and, you know, what you'd expect from an adorable little red-headed fascist. I made everyone cry during my graduation speech. that place was brutal. i didn't even see it at the time. it was just life.
all i see in my brain are sex scenes. me, covered in females. loving/touching me/each other. i'm in no hurry to get where i'm going. i enjoy the ride.
when i say something fucked up, immediately give me a hug and say, "there may be a nicer way to say what you want to express about that." Then, look up at my, still hugging, and say, "please?" Guaranteed, i will melt. Gently remove yourself as I do, for lingering, that creates needs for immediate schedule changes, finding of third eye operator(s) and light sources. Why shouldn't we get it on video? Isn't that part of the fun? What? If I was a porn star, I could afford to get my old hemorrhoids removed. Yes, I will spend my porn money on cosmetic surgery of my bung-hole. So what? Or, better, the coop will have surgeon who just happens to be a gorgeous perverted locavore, so I work off my asshole surgery by cleaning her pool, weeding her garden, and fucking her every morning, noon, afternoon, evening, and you know, occasional snacks. Maybe it's a gang of 'em, a gaggle. A bevy? a host. a domain. Over time, one can look like many, and when you see without time, it doesn't matter whether it's one person or a single finger being lifted by a billion people. my penis very much looks forward to the time it will spend inside you. when i die, i want my flesh consumed raw by people who love it. people who love you. brain in a vat, skeleton to mit robo-animatronics lab for dancification, and soul into the multi-infinite aether. rawr.
i'm all, internet, where should i go, and my brain is like, downstairs to do your laundry. and my eyes shift right down to the clock and i can finish my laundry before punching in at 2, where I can still put in a 12-hour shift with music. I have bean stew and hard-boiled local fresh eggs. juggernaut. indestructible. infinitely loving. perfect. exactly correct in word and deed. beautiful beyond words.
that video will not leave my head. i had to look away and it still got me and my morning wood will not be calmed by the am dose. you two were the ones in the scenes. but then you become those two, and these two, and holy god you're all so amazingly fucking hot, thank you for giving my fascist hacker ass the time of day.
masturbation materials. that's what i can call my company. well, fine, you come up with a name that's guaranteed to get prudes to scoff and spit and shake their heads. that sputter is detoxing. it's important, and it's helpful, and it's useful. you can smile and say, "they're not, really, they're implements for consuming plant matter, but you could use 'em for that in a pinch."
I need to get my five-minute proposal down. My elevator spiel. Probably should video that, too. The only way to get me to watch that enough to actually make it happen will be to fill it with my beautifullest friends.
We are all friends here. Well put. Database functions such as that most easily facilitated by scraping databases. Reverse engineer the world until there is no more proprietary. Profit, I mock thee to thyne face! Survival-based "businesses" don't feel like work, because they're not. They're life, living, cooperative beauty.
once you reach critical mass and you're buying properties, we can turn you into a generator, car-bike-shop-fix-share, food growing/production/gourmet/catering school. Campus, university, farm, whatever. Multi-function tool. Blessed uber-princess, we quake and giggle at your grin. Your toothy smile induces fits of blissful delirium. Put me where you want me. as you wish.
more coffee. 12:58 pm.
meh videos got blocked. vicious about the jane's eh? is that perry? does my non-request offend you, sir? It's what they call a "fan" video. I have given you more of my money than I've given most people, and I want to share your beautiful songs with my friends and appreciative strangers. I don't ask. YouTube doesn't provide the communicative capability to send requests to license-holders. must be because the tunes are all owned by the profit-driven behemoths that can only say no and start fights anyway. how much say do the artists have in these decisions? and what the fuck? you put your music out in the ether and it makes you rich, but then you want to restrict people from hearing it? what kind of fucked up friendship logic is that? In some way, this is exactly what I do, for I wouldn't be babbling about it if it weren't. that's just how these things work. never hold back from your urge to sock me in the arm. i understand nonverbal expressions of disapproval. your pain translates into mine. ouch. k.
laundry, then more shop time. i may finish finish some pieces. photos would logically follow. you never can tell how these things will pan out. cyclical, really. wobbling sphere harmonics and whatnot.
My gratitude can only be expressed in dance. I love you forever.

Launch of Media Clusters Research Centre at Leicester
Media Cultures Launch Party
We'd like to invite you to the launch party of the Department of Media and Communication's new research cluster in Media Cultures, which will take place on Thursday 16th June 4.00-6.30 pm at Bankfield House, University of Leicester.
Media Cultures is a new initiative that explores questions of access, opportunity, participation, development and social justice – offering new insights into the role of media in our shared and contested cultural lives http://www2.le.ac.uk/departments/media/research/media-cultures
There will be presentations and talks on some of our latest research and special guest speakers – with food and a drinks reception to follow; this is a free event and everyone is welcome to attend, and we especially welcome new or young researchers, or anyone keen to find out more about our work at Leicester, as we continue to celebrate our 50th anniversary.
Media Ruptures and Futures
Presenters: Jonathan Corpus Ong, Maria Touri (Leicester) and Margie Buchanan-Smith (Overseas Development Institute)
This presentation thinks through the potentialities of media at the moment of rupture, disaster and intervention. Organized by the cluster's Media and Development research group, we discuss how concepts of voice, participation and conviviality apply to and are interrupted by our research in emergency and development contexts. We synthesize our previous and ongoing research on refugee arts and media, ict4d interventions for Indian farmers, and post-disaster romance in analyzing how media mend communities after rupture and reorient people's relationships to diverse and uncertain futures.

New Histories of Media and Cultural Work
While claims of contemporaneity and newness can serve to occlude the history we don't yet know, assumptions about the past can also tie us to settled forms of critique which contain their own lacunae – so what is at stake in thinking about work now, in the future, and in the light of the past? This panel will explore the complex histories of media and cultural work – by unravelling a few old yarns and poking some new holes in the evidential fabric…..
· Vicki Mayer (Tulane): 'Colonial Ambitions, Crony Capitalism, and Covert Racism: Towards New Histories of Media Entrepreneurs'
· Jessica Bain (Leicester): 'Beyond the Nostalgia of 'Make do and Mend': Discourses of Slow Fashion and Feminism in Digital Dressmaking Communities'
· Kylie Jarrett (NUI, Maynooth): ''Don't Get Mad, Get Even': Re-Gendering the Labouring Subject'
· Mark Banks (Leicester): 'The New Classes, Beatniks and Chicken Barbecues: Evidencing Histories of Cultural Work'
Chaired by Helen Wood (Leicester)
The presentations will be followed by food and drinks reception, from 6.30pm
To register a place, please email Jilly Boyce Kay email@example.com by June 13th. All welcome.
Bankfield House is situated at 132 New Walk, Leicester – 5 minutes from Leicester railway station. Directions can be found here https://www.le.ac.uk/maps/> Go back to Resources

Nowadays, skateboard prices are often pretty lofty for the majority of us who are suffering through this economic disaster, that's why skateboards for cheap are really high in demand. But with so many dozens of skateboards for cheap on sale online, it can be hard to tell if you're getting your money's worth. The best skateboards for cheap are definitely out there floating around, and after reading this article you should soon be on your way to buying perfectly fine, quality skateboards for cheap and saving lots of money in the process.
Prices on skateboards for cheap - How low is too low?
When looking for the best skateboards for cheap, it's not always a good idea to go after the lowest priced ones you can find. There is a limit to how low a price should be for quality and durable skateboards for cheap.
You've probably noticed by now that most skate decks sell for around $50-$65 on average, and that's without grip tape. If you're an avid skater who's on a budget, these prices can sometimes put a damper on your favorite hobby. The best skateboards for cheap are going to be less than $50, but still above the $20 mark in most cases.
When you start looking for discount skate decks on sale priced below $20, you run a big risk of getting a poor-quality product that's not worthy of your feet to even stand on. Sure, you might be able to find a one on sale under $20 that seems fine at first, but you'll just wind up needing another one within weeks. So unless you just need a temporary skateboard for cheap until you have more money, discount skate decks on sale for less than $20 are not going to be worth your time or money.
What to look for in skateboards for cheap
Now you may be wondering what kind of discount skate decks sell for $20-$50. There are actually two types of boards to keep an eye out for: blanks and older model name-brands on sale/clearance.
Blank decks are great examples of quality skateboards for cheap. These boards are essentially the same as any other name brand board, except you're not paying extra money for the cool-looking graphics or the popular brand name itself. Blanks sell for anywhere from $20-$50 (usually around $30 or so), and when you buy from reputable dealers and get quality blanks from companies like Moose and CCS, these are some of the biggest money-savers when it comes to buying the best skateboards for cheap. You can pretty much get two boards for the price of one name brand one, and you won't notice a difference in quality or durability.
If you want popular name brand one, your best bet is to wait until new models start to come in and snag the old models when they go on sale. Skate shops both online and in the real world have a lot of clearance and discount skate decks on sale that they need to get rid of to make room for new inventory.They may not always be the best looking or most popular, which may sometimes be why they haven't sold, but a deck is a deck. They're almost all made with the same wood, same ply, and same dimensions and that's all that matters when you want the best skateboards for cheap.
Advantages of buying skateboards for cheap online
Buying skateboards for cheap online is almost always the best way to go, and there's a few reasons why. Obviously, one big reason that sticks out is because you have the luxury of shopping around and comparing prices between dozens of online skate shops and outlet stores. This drastically increases your chances of getting a really nice skateboard for cheap.
Another luxury of shopping online is being able to read product descriptions and features. This gives you an opportunity to find out why certain discounted boards are priced so low and allows you to get an idea of what's in store for you if you choose to make the purchase. All of this combined with the fact that there are so many more clearance sales online than there are in stores makes shopping for skateboards for cheap online your best approach.
Of course, there are some advantages of buying skateboards for cheap in stores as well. You never have to worry about those pesky shipping and handling costs, or giving out your credit card information. You also get a chance to see the products up close and personal, and get a better idea of which skateboards for cheap are worth buying.
Where to get the best skateboards for cheap
There are numerous places online to buy skateboards for cheap, but you can't trust them all. I wouldn't recommend looking on eBay or CraigsList private sellers unless you can identify a reputable seller. Some of the better online companies that sell skateboards for cheap are places like CCS, and SkateAmerica. These companies have very high customer satisfaction ratings and have been recognized as legit retailers for years.
There are still tons of other sites out there that offer better deals, you just have to take the advice in this article to be sure you don't get ripped off. When you're not looking online, keep an eye and ear out for clearance sales at your local skate shops. Try to get those older model discounted boards while they last.
Now go find the best skateboards for cheap
Now that you have this valuable advice, go make a smart purchase and find the best discount skate deck that you can find. Remember to shop around, compare prices, look for old models and blanks, keep an eye and ear out for discount boards on sale, and always read up on product descriptions and dealer reputation when possible. If you keep these things in mind, you can constantly find really nice skateboards for cheap and always have a new one ready to ride whenever you decide you're sick of your old one.

Palestinian prisoners declared a mass open-ended hunger strike entitled "Freedom and Dignity" on Monday — Palestinian Prisoners day — eliciting an immediate crackdown from Israeli authorities.
Prisoners from across the political spectrum have pledged their allegiance to the strike, with some estimates reporting up to 2,000 participants. If the strike continues as planned, it will be the largest mass hunger strike undertaken by Palestinian prisoners in recent years. The strike was launched with the intentions of receiving a long list of demands (published at the bottom of this report).
Following the strike's launch on Monday, Israeli authorities declared that hunger striking prisoners would be barred from family visits for as long as the strike continues. According to Issa Qaraqe, the head of the Palestinian Committee for Prisoners' Affairs, hunger strikers have also been barred from visits from their lawyers, though it is unclear if that will be an ongoing policy throughout the strike.
According to official Palestinian media Wafa, the media committee of the striking prisoners reported that the prison administration in Ofer prison isolated all prisoners taking part in the strike, "stripped" them of their clothes, "forcing them to wear a special dark brown prison uniform," and gave prisoners' dirty blankets.
In addition, the leader of the strike, Marwan Barghouti, has been placed in solitary confinement.
Barghouti is one of the most popular living leaders among Palestinians in the occupied Palestinian territory and Israel. He was detained in 2002 and charged with five counts of murder and being a member of a "terrorist organization" — the Fatah movement's armed wing. Barghouti denied the legitimacy of the Israeli courts at the time and refused a defense. The court sentenced him to five life sentences and 40 years in prison.
In an op-ed Barghouti wrote for the New York Times International Edition about the launch of his hunger strike (the piece did not appear in the NYT domestic edition), he explained why the strike was important to the Palestinian people.
"Israel has established a dual legal regime, a form of judicial apartheid, that provides virtual impunity for Israelis who commit crimes against Palestinians, while criminalizing Palestinian presence and resistance. Israel's courts are a charade of justice, clearly instruments of colonial, military occupation. According to the State Department, the conviction rate for Palestinians in the military courts is nearly 90 percent," Barghouti wrote.
"Among the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians whom Israel has taken captive are children, women, parliamentarians, activists, journalists, human rights defenders, academics, political figures, militants, bystanders, family members of prisoners. And all with one aim: to bury the legitimate aspirations of an entire nation."
According to an Associated Press report, Israeli Minister of Public Security Gilad Erdan on Tuesday vowed not to negotiate with the hunger strikers.
"These are terrorists and incarcerated murderers who are getting exactly what the international law requires," he told Israel's Army Radio. "My policy is that you can't negotiate with prisoners such as these… There is no reason to give them additional conditions in addition to what they already receive."
While Israel has been accused of breaking international law in multiple ways with Palestinian prisoners, one glaring violation is the fact that all but one of the prisons used to jail Palestine prisoners from the occupied West Bank are located in Israel, in direct contravention of international law, which requires an occupying power to imprison those from occupied territory within the occupied land. The forcible deportation of Palestinian prisoners to Israel constitutes a war crime under international law.
During the radio interview, Erdan added that Israel has established field hospitals outside the prisons to respond to any immediate medical needs. Palestinians are concerned that the field hospitals could be more likely to "force feed" hunger strikers, something civilian hospitals, with the support of Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, have refused to do.
According to the Jerusalem Post, the Israeli Prison Service declared that "Prisoners who decide to strike will face serious consequences."
Palestinian legislator Hanan Ashrawi called Israel's "efforts to crush" the hunger strike "draconian" and condemned the "punitive measures" taken by the state.
Mass Palestinian Solidarity
While Israel has cracked down on the hunger strikers, Palestinians across Israel and the occupied Palestinian territory showed their support through mass demonstrations on Monday.
In the occupied West Bank, there were protests at Ramallah's Ofer Prison, and the city's Betuniya village, as well as in Hebron, Jenin, Nablus, Tulkarem, Bethlehem and more, according to local and social media.
In Bethlehem alone, thousands of Palestinians took the streets, marching in solidarity with the protesters. The march, which started around noon, broke out into clashes after youth began throwing rocks at the separation wall. Israeli forces responded with sponge rounds and copious amounts of tear gas. Clashes went on for hours, while later in the afternoon, Dheisheh refugee camp put on a Dabka concert, where youth from the community performed traditional Palestinian dance, dressed in black and focused on Palestinian prisoners. Leaders of the community also gave speeches in support of the hunger strike. In front of the city's most popular tourist attraction, the Nativity Church, a large tent has been set up to educate people about the strike. The tent will be a permanent installation as long as the strike continues.
Protests also took place in the Haifa district's town of Umm al-Fahm and in Gaza, according to Ma'an News Agency.
There are currently 6,000 Palestinians being held in Israeli jails, including 500 being held without charge or trial and 300 children, according to prisoners' rights group Addameer.
List of demands as published by Ma'an News, with editor's notes by Mondoweiss
- Install a public telephone for Palestinian detainees in all prisons and sections in order to communicate with their families.
- Visits:
- Resume the second monthly visits for Palestinian prisoners that were halted by the International Committee of the Red Cross last year. (Editor's Note: ICRC transportation is the only approved method for families to visit loved ones in prison, due to funding constraints, ICRC reduced twice a month transportation to once a month)
- Ensure the regularity of visits every two weeks without being prevented by any side.
- First- and second-degree relatives shall not be prevented from visiting the detainee.
- Increase the duration of the visit from 45 minutes to an hour and a half.
- Allow the detainees to take pictures with their families every three months.
- Establish facilities to comfort the families of detainees.
- Allow children and grandchildren under the age of 16 to visit detainees.
- Healthcare:
- Shut down the so-called Ramla Prison Hospital, because it does not provide the adequate treatment. (Editor's Note: Legal representatives of Palestinian prisoners often report inadequate levels of medical treatment at Ramla Prison Hospital)
- Terminate Israel's policy of deliberate medical negligence.
- Carry out periodic medical examinations.
- Perform surgeries to a high medical standard.
- Permit specialized physicians from outside the Israeli Prison Service to treat prisoners.
- Release sick detainees, especially those who have disabilities and incurable diseases.
- Medical treatment should not be at the expense of the detainee.
- Respond to the needs and demands of Palestinian women detainees, namely the issue of being transported for long hours between Israeli courts and prisons.
- Transportation:
- Treat detainees humanely when transporting them.
- Return detainees to prisons after the visiting clinics or courts and not further detain them at crossings.
- Prepare the crossings for human use and provide meals for detainees.
- Add satellites channels that suit the needs of detainees.
- Install air conditioners in prisons, especially in the Megiddo and Gilboa prisons.
- Restore kitchens in all prisons and place them under the supervision of Palestinian detainees.
- Allow detainees to have books, newspapers, clothes and food.
- End the policy of solitary confinement.
- End the policy of administrative detention. (Editor's Note: Administrative Detention is an Israeli policy under which Palestinians are held without charge or trial for renewable six months periods)
- Allow detainees to study at Hebrew Open University.
- Allow detainees to have end of high school (tawjihi) exams in an official and agreed manner. (Editor's Note: Without passing official Tawjihi high school exams, Palestinians are unable to be hired in many employment fields and barred from attending university in the occupied Palestinian territory. The exam is noted as arguably one of the most difficult high school level exams in the world and takes weeks of studying and preparation)

I've always been intrigued about the off the field lives of athletes, especially baseball players. I tend to gravitate towards and collect players that I can somewhat relate too. My faith is one of these areas. That said I've learned more and more about Gary Carter after I heard of his cancer. It's a sad story and I was saddened to hear that he passed away on my way into work today.
My player collection list in the sidebar is already pretty lengthy, but I've decided to add Mr. Carter to the list. I'm not looking to be a super collector or anything like that, but it would be cool to go back and pick up base cards of his. So if anyone happens to have some duplicates of 70's, 80's or 90's base cards please let me know so we can work out some sort of trade.

Sometimes verification emails get into spam/junk folders, or they are being blocked by the email provider/company's firewall. In such cases, we usually offer to use an alternative google/yahoo email address, or temporarily disable an email verification.
Best regards,
The NING Team
Yes, I temporarily disabled email verification, on the suggestion of Ning support. (no, it wasn't a spam issue). Thanks.
Hello Annabel!
We are currently investigating the issue with undelivered emails further, and it would help us a lot if you provide us with email addresses (or at least the domains, like @gmail.com or @yahoo.com) of members who haven't received emails from us, the type of an email and date when it was supposed to arrive.
Best regards,
The NING Team

STATEMENT OF FAITH – Grace Baptist Church (Taken from GBC Constitution)
Special Revelation. We believe that the Bible is God's special revelation, the Word of God. We believe in the verbal inspiration of the Bible in its entirety, by the Holy Spirit, rendering the Bible inerrant in the original autographs in all that it affirms. We believe the Word of God has supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct. John 17:17; Roman 15:4; II Timothy 3:16,17; II Peter 1:19-21.
General Revelation. We believe that God has also revealed Himself in conscience, creation and providential history, but this general revelation does not impart saving truths, and must be interpreted by the testimony of God's authoritative special revelation, the Word of God. Psalm 19; Job 12:7-9; Romans 1:19, 20; 10:18.
The Trinity
We believe that there is one living and true God, co-equally and co-eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that these are a trinity, equal in every Divine perfection of spirituality, personality, omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence, independence, and immutability, and that they execute distinct but harmonious offices in the work of creation, providence and redemption. Matthew 28:19; John 1:1-4; Hebrews 9:14; I Peter 1:2.
God the Father
We believe in God the Father, the first Person of the Trinity. The Father sends the Son and the Holy Spirit. (Galatians 4:4; John 15:26) We believe that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ. John 3:16,17; 4:24; 17:5; Acts 4:12; 10:43; I Timothy 2:5.
Jesus Christ
We believe in Jesus Christ, God's only begotten son, the second Person of the Trinity. We believe in His true humanity and true deity. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles and taught authoritatively the Word of God. We believe in His substitutionary, atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension into Heaven, in His perpetual advocacy for His people, and His personal, visible return to earth. Isaiah 7:14; John 1:14; Philippians 2:5-11; Hebrews 1:2,3 and I John 1:7; I Corinthians 15:3,4; II Corinthians 5:21.
Holy Spirit
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity who came forth from the Father and Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness and judgment, and to regenerate, sanctify, and empower all who believe in Jesus Christ. We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Christ and that He is an abiding helper, teacher and guide. John 14:26; John 16:7-15; Romans 8:14-17; Ephesians 1:13,14.
We believe that the triune God is the source of all that there is. The entire universe was created by God ex nihilo (out of nothing). God creates in freedom and with purpose. Creation is the stage on which are enacted God's dealings with mankind. Providence is God's gracious outworking of His purpose in Christ which issues in His dealings with mankind. Providence also bears witness to God among the heathen. God preserves and cares for His creation in His common grace, restraining sin within human society, and allowing mankind, though fallen, to live together in a generally orderly and cooperative manner, to show mutual forbearance, and to cultivate together the scientific, cultural, and economic pursuits of civilization. Genesis 1:26; Colossians 1:16; Hebrew 11:3; II Thessalonians 2:7.
We believe that mankind was created in the image of God, in man's personality (moral responsibility and intelligence) and in his knowledge of God and of His will for man. We believe that man has fallen from his original state of innocence and that all men are sinners by nature and by choice, and under condemnation by God. Genesis 1:27; 5:1
We believe that salvation brings sinful persons into right relationship with a holy God. Salvation is a gift of God that is received through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. Salvation involves regeneration by the Holy Spirit, justification in the sight of God, and adoption into the family of God. Salvation is through Christ alone, not by human effort. John 1:12,13; John 3:3,16,17; Acts 20:21; Ephesians 2:1-9; Titus 3:5; John 14:6; Acts 4:12.
The Church
We believe in the universal church, a living spiritual body of which Christ is the Head and all regenerated persons the members. We believe in the local church, consisting of a company of believers in Jesus Christ, baptized on a credible profession of faith, and associated for worship, service and fellowship. We believe that God has laid upon the members of the local church the primary task of proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost world, and discipling believers. Matthew 15:16-18; Acts 2:38-41; Ephesians 2:19-22; 5:25-27.
Christian Conduct
We believe that the Christian should live for the glory of God and the well-being of all people. He should be a faithful steward of his possessions, time, and talents, his conduct should be a good testimony before the world and he should seek to realize for himself and others the full stature of maturity in Christ. II Corinthians 9:6-8; Ephesians 4:11-16; Philippians 2:14-16.
Marriage and Family
We believe the Bible teaches that marriage refers to a covenant relationship between one man and one woman, as instituted by God in the beginning, to the exclusion of all others. Genesis 2:20b-24; 1 Corinthians 7:2; Hebrews 13:4 We affirm the family as the basic unit of society and seek to preserve its integrity and stability. Genesis2:21-25; Ephesians 6:1-4
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has committed two ordinances to the local church, which should be observed and administered until the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Baptism: We believe that Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the triune God. Matthew 3:13-16; Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:3,4.
Lord's Supper: We believe that the Lord's Supper was instituted by Christ for commemoration of His death and anticipation of His return. I Corinthians 11: 23-32
Angelic Beings
We believe in angels, created ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation and to be God's messengers, and ambassadors. Psalm 148:2-5; Colossians 1:16; Hebrews 1:14.
We believe that Satan and his demons are fallen, apostate angels who are the chief antagonists of God and man, and promote every form of evil in the universe, ultimately to be consigned forever to eternal punishment. Job 1:12,13, 19; 2:7; Daniel 10:12,13; Matthew 4:3; 25:41; Luke 13:11,16; John 13:27; Acts 10:38; Romans 8:38,39; II Corinthians 12:7; I Peter 5:8; II Peter 2:4; Jude 6.
Religious Liberty
We believe that every human being has direct relations with God and is responsible to God alone in all matters of faith (Matthew 6:21,24; 7:21-23; 12:36,37), that each church is independent and must be free from interference by any ecclesiastical or political authority (Matthew 22:21; Mark 12:17; Luke 20:25; Acts 4:12; Romans 13:1-7; I Timothy 2:1-5; Hebrews 4:16; 9:11-28; 10), that church and state must therefore be kept separate as having different functions, each fulfilling its duties free from dictation or patronage of the other (Acts 4:19; 5:29).
Last Things
We believe in the personal and visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ to earth and the establishment of His kingdom. We believe in the resurrection of the body, the final judgment, the eternal bliss of the justified and the endless suffering of the lost. Matthew 25:31-46; John 5:28-29; 14:1-4; Acts 1:11; II Corinthians 5:10; I Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 20:1-16.

Mook-Jon had een nieuw logo ontwerp nodig en lanceerde daarom een wedstrijd op 99designs.
Een winnaar werd gekozen uit55 ontwerpen ingezonden door24 freelance designers.
The name Coastal Synergy was made because one partner office resides on the east coast of the US (NYC) and the other is on the west coast of the US (California). Bringing out that idea inside of a logo in image form would be exactly what we are looking for.
Coastal Synergy LLC
Desired Color Scheme:
Impress us with your design creativity
Desired Style:
Professional, trendy, Web 2.0'ish.
Accepted File Formats:
Vector, PSD
We're looking for a professional but trendy design that uses the name of the company and brand inside the logo itself. Using the name inside the logo is not necessary, but creating some type of design so that when people hear the name, they'll remember the logo, and vice versa.
Coastal Synergy, as mentioned above, is the parent company of a very popular webmaster forum called WickedFire. We've also recently acquired a major industry publication, and continue to own and operate hundreds of large, well known internet properties. Thus the need for a more professional, but trendy/web 2.0'ish logo that represents the company, the officers, and the properties it manages.
