New owners save Mavic, refocus company on rims, hubs and wheels

New owners have been approved for the embattled French wheel maker Mavic, with a court in Grenoble approving the takeover of the Tour de France technical partner by the Bourrelier group.

Formerly Bricorama, the Bourrelier Group specializes in DIY retail, also owning the Gamma and Karwei hardware chains in Belgium and the Netherlands. They beat out 13 other investment groups including one championed by former Tour de France winner Bernard Hinault.

Mavic employees got an unwelcome surprise in May when the company was placed in receivership and it was revealed that a prior sale agreement was bogus. Former parent company Salomon and its main shareholder Amer Sports supposedly sold Mavic to the California investment fund Regent LP in 2018. But somehow the sale went to Delaware-based company M Sports instead. Amer Sports itself was taken over by a Chinese group in 2019

According to France Bleu Pays de Savoie, the new owners will keep 105 of the more than 210 employees across the production site in Saint-Triviers and the research and development sites in Annecy but will pare down the company's focus.

Having expanded from a specialty in wheels to footwear, helmets, apparel, tyres and other accessories, the new owners say they will narrow the focus to rims, hubs and wheels in aluminium and carbon.

"MAVIC needs to regain the aspect of a family-owned enterprise with agile governance and the short, autonomous decision-making circuits it has lacked in recent years, and with a refocus on what has made the brand successful."

The group plan to modernise Mavic's production tooling and continue its efforts in research, development and innovation. But the announcement made no mention on if Mavic would continue its partnership providing neutral service to the Tour de France. The company extended its 40-year agreement with the ASO through 2022 three years ago.

The season is changing. Temperatures are down and the next thing you know… you have a cold! Sneezes, chills, coughing. You’re not the only one though, the dog (even though he has a nice fur coat) can also be affected – some more, some less. So what can we do to protect him from winter’s ailments?

First of all, not all dogs have the same reaction to the cold weather and it’s a good idea to know which breeds are most at risk. Age is also an important factor. Puppies and senior dogs are more at risk than healthy adults and should be protected with greater care. The type of hair and breed are important. Short-haired dogs are more prone to suffering from changes in temperature than the more furry dogs are. And then there’s the question of dogs with ailments – joints, heart or respiratory disorders. They need some special consideration and to be kept warm.

Indoor life
If you live in an apartment and, well, let’s face it, you pamper your dog by keeping him warm and at home all the time, then you should protect him from sudden changes in temperature. Accustomed as he is to the warm indoors, he’s less inclined to develop the nice thick winter coat outdoor dogs get as the days grow shorter. You will need to get him used to colder air gradually, making sure he gets acclimatized without sudden trauma that could compromise his health.

To make it even more comfortable for our animals to stay indoors, especially those most affected by the cold, there is a wide array of dog beds and pillows of all sorts, even heated ones: this type comes equipped with an internal pad which, when plugged in, warms up to and then maintains a pleasant temperature. There are many other viable solutions to provide our furry friends with a comfortable and warm place to lie down, like reversible blankets and pillows, with one side made of cotton for milder temperatures and one side of soft plush ideal for cold spells.

The Scarlets are set to bring Corey Baldwin back to Welsh rugby with the former Wales U20 star returning to Llanelli from Exeter Chiefs. Baldwin left the Scarlets for the Gallagher Premiership last season but the centre struggled for consistent game time at Sandy Park due to the strength of the Exeter squad. Before leaving the Scarlets the Llandeilo product was seen as one of the most promising prospects in the Welsh game, with Wales coach Wayne Pivac a big admirer.

Welsh Fire Urged To Stoke Things Up Again After Leus Du Plooy Knock Fails To Keep Winning Habit

Leus du Plooy has vowed that Welsh Fire will re-ignite their campaign quickly on Monday after suffering their first defeat in The Hundred. The South African smashed a blazing 22-ball 43 which featured four sixes in what was ultimately a losing effort for Fire at home to Manchester Originals. A win on Saturday would have moved Fire up to first place in the table and well on their way to qualifying for the knockout stages of the tournament. Now, they must ensure winning momentum is not reversed when they meet Oval Invincilbes in south London on Monday.

"Bites", Fights, Slights And Things To Put Right . . . Just Another Wave Of Lions v Springboks Fury Before Final Test Decider

Warren Gatland has told his British and Irish Lions to prepare for a "cup final" after their 27-9 defeat by South Africa in the second Test set up a series decider next Saturday. The Lions entered half-time at Cape Town Stadium 9-6 ahead through three Dan Biggar penalties but the match then turned on its head, with the world champions taking control up-front and in the air. Makazole Mapimpi and Lukhanyo Am crossed in the third quarter while the boot of Handre Pollard did the rest, setting up a winner-takes-all scenario in the climax to the tour next week.

British Swimming Celebrates Best Olympics In History As Dan Jervis Earns Fifth Place In Tokyo Final

Dan Jervis finished fifth in his first Olympic final as Great Britain ended their most successful swimming campaign in Games history. Swansea swimmer Jervis dug in for a gritty performance that ended with him finishing outside the medals, with a time of 14:55.48 that was some way short of his personal best as well as the 14:48.67 that earned him a silver medal at the Commonwealth Games in 2018. But the 25-year-old Swim Wales athlete from Resolven should feel proud and encouraged by placing so near to medals at his maiden Olympic Games.

Alun Wyn Jones Joins Graham Price On Lions Elevenes But Denies Respect Was One-Sided In First Test

Alun Wyn Jones has refused to get drawn on Rassie Erasmus' criticism of the refereeing in the first Test and warned the Springboks there is more to come from the Lions. The Lions captain was responding after Rassie Erasmus, the South Africa director of rugby, released an unorthodox 62-minute video on social media in which he criticised the officials following the Springboks' 22-17 loss in the first Test in Cape Town last Saturday. Erasmus claimed Springboks captain Siya Kolisi did not receive the respect from officials afforded to the Lions skipper and said he was willing to walk away from the remainder of the series if he was out of line.

Lauren Price Insist She Has No Fear Of Facing Dutch Rival As Olympic Final Looms

Lauren Price insists she holds no fears about facing old foe Nouchka Fontijn in a shoot-out for an Olympic final. The Welsh boxer has her sights set on a gold medal after guaranteeing herself at least a bronze for Great Britain with a quarter-final victory in Tokyo. Price, the world champion from Ystrad Mynach, will face Fontijn in the semi-finals after beating Panama's Atheyna Bylon, 5-0, on Saturday.

The Hundred May Have 99 Problems . . . But The Cricket Ain't One

Welsh Fire are blazing. The men’s team have played twice and won twice and sit second of the eight teams in the early table. It’s not quite ignited yet for Welsh Fire women, who have lost both opening fixtures, but approval ratings for The Hundred generally have been high. Fraser Watson is a hard man to please, but even he thinks something significant is going on in the old sport. After 86 balls of the run chase, with the Southern Braves still needing 29 to win a pulsating contest, Chris Jordan shaped up to put Jimmy Neesham into the stands. He contrived only to slice it to Josh Cobb at extra cover – a catch which essentially secured a second straight Welsh Fire win.

Dan Jervis . . . The Welshman Who Swims For GB, Wales, Grandad, Pastor Santos - But Mostly For God

Dan Jervis won’t be alone when he prays ahead of his Olympic debut in the 1500 metres freestyle event in Tokyo on Friday. Back in Neath, the congregation of Sardis Baptist Church have been on their knees for weeks hoping to invoke some divine intervention for one of their flock. Pastor Fortunato Santos has put Dan at the heart of his prayer chain in a bid to help him bring back some gold from Japan.

Bronze For Welsh Pair In GB Eight, Heartbreak For Vicky Thornley . . . Then Outrage And Anger From Wales' Josh Bugajski

Welsh rowers Oliver Wynne-Griffith and Josh Bugajski took a bronze medal in the men’s eight but there was another GB rowing near miss for Vicky Thornley in Tokyo – before Bugajski launched a furious attack on the sport’s former head coach. Wynne-Griffith and Bugajski were part of the men’s eight crew that battled to a third place finish behind Germany, who took silver, and new Olympic champions New Zealand. Thornley agonisingly missed out on a medal in the women’s single sculls after finishing fourth in her final – the sixth fourth-placed finish for Great Britain this week.

Vicky Thornley Vows To Go All Out To Break The Trend Of Medal Near Misses For Team GB

Vicky Thornley is on course for a shot at another Olympic medal and is desperate to break the sequence of agonizing fourth place finishes for Team GB. The Welsh rower became just the third British female single sculler to reach an Olympic final – and the first for 25 years – after finishing second in her semi-final. Now, Thornley – who won a silver medal in the women’s double sculls with Dame Katherine Grainger at the Rio Games in 2016 - has her sights on a first ever British medal in women’s single sculls in the final on Friday morning.

The Wedding Singer Cast

The Wedding Singer Cast (L-R): Ed Daganos, Nadia Komazec, Christian Charisiou, Teagan Wouters, Stephen Mahy. Images by Nicole Clearly Photography

Lead Cast Announced for The Wedding Singer Aussie Premiere

Limited Seasons in Adelaide, Melbourne, Gold Coast & Sydney

WIN TIX!! To celebrate the arrival of The Wedding Singer in Australia we have 1x double pass valued at $198 to giveaway in each city! Prize tickets are valid for April 9 in Adelaide, April 30 in Melbourne, June 16 in the Gold Coast and July 1 in Sydney.

To enter simply send in your name and mobile number to with the subject title of ‘The Wedding Singer Tix + Preferred City’. Please specific which is your preferred city to see the show.  Winners will be chosen at random 2 weeks before each ticket date. Winners chosen at random and notified directly. ENTER NOW!

Following a nationwide call-out that saw over 600 applicants, the stars of the Australian premiere of The Wedding Singer have been cast. More performers and creatives are set to be announced for this hilarious Broadway musical, touring the country from 9 April.

Christian Charisiou, Teagan Wouters and Stephen Mahy

Overflowing with all the best ‘80s nostalgia, this raucous rom-com will see Kinky Boots’ star, Teagan Wouters, pull up her leg warmers and tweak her side-pony, ready to belt out the role of Julia made famous by Drew Barrymore in the movie.

Starring opposite the Helpmann Award nominated musical queen is gifted, multi-skilled performer Christian Charisiou in the title role of Robbie Hart, originally created by Adam Sandler in the film. A NIDA graduate experienced in TV, film and theatre, this is Christian’s first leading role in a main stage musical. A natural at comedy, he is also one of the stars of the animated Maya the Bee 3: The Golden Orb, in cinemas now.

The villain (ok, fiancée) of Wouter’s Julia, the annoyingly obnoxious Glen Guglia, will be performed by Stephen Mahy, one of Australia’s original Jersey Boys with recent principal roles in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Saturday Night Fever and Mamma Mia! He also reached the top 12 in Channel 10’s I Will Survive, proving just how much he (and his voice) can thrive.

Rounding out the lead cast is Adelaide’s vivacious true-triple-threat Nadia Komazec as Holly (who teaches Robbie what a good kiss really is), the wildly charismatic Ed Deganos as George who toured with The Lion King for Disney Theatrical Productions, and celebrated character performer Susan-ann Walker as Robbie’s adventurous, hip and sometimes naughty Grandma, Rosie.

All the cast are thrilled to be bringing live theatre back to Australian audiences.

I feel incredibly excited to be cast in the lead role of a major musical, particularly following the chaos of 2020. The Wedding Singer really amplifies the humour, love and all-out ‘80s fun of the movie…I can’t wait for audiences to see it!”, says Christian.

“The movie came out when I was in high school, so there is a lot of nostalgia around it for me personally. It’s going to be a very

 silly and outrageous trip back to the ‘80s and feels like it’s exactly what we all need right now!”, says Teagan.

From 9 April, Adelaide, Melbourne, Gold Coast and Sydney audiences will be treated to this feel-good, romantic musical. It’s 1985. Hair is huge, collars are up and a wedding singer is the coolest guy in the room. Remember cassette players, ATARI, and slap bands?

Penned by the writer of the original smash-hit movie starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, The Wedding Singer musical achieved a Tony Award nomination for Best Musical.

Following performances on Broadway and across the UK, this feel-good musical features all your favourite characters and a sparkling new soundtrack that does for the 80s what Hairspray did for the 60s.

Robbie Hart is New Jersey’s number one wedding singer and the life of the party. That is until his own fiancée strands him at the altar. Bitter and broken, Robbie begins to make every wedding as disastrous as his own until a warm-hearted waitress named Julia intervenes. Only trouble is, Julia’s about to be–you guessed it–married! Can Robbie pull off the performance of the decade and win the girl of his dreams?

The Wedding Singer features music by Matthew Sklar (Elf The Musical), lyrics by Chad Beguelin (Aladdin), and a book by Beguelin and Tim Herlihy. A long-time collaborator of Adam Sandler, Tim wrote the classic hit films Happy Gilmore and Billy Maddison, as well as several other Sandler-starring blockbusters in addition to The Wedding Singer.

COVID Safe measures will be in place for all performances, as per government regulations. More information is available via the websites for each venue.

Come join the party and support the return of Australian theatre!

Friday Afternoon Roundup - Put Some Teeth In It

Forget all the worrying and fussing over Muslim immigration and terrorism. The future looks bright for Britain. We’re probably only days away from the first female Imam and drive through abortion clinics in local mosques. Mecca is going to host its first swimsuit competition on its black rock and Ramadan will unite with Gay Pride Day for a parade that no one will ever be able to forget.

At least that's Islam according to Tony Blair

“Good women are obedient,” says the Koran. “They guard their unseen parts.” Which in the Muslim world often includes their faces, their voices and themselves, until the whole woman becomes one unseen part. “As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them.”

The liberal Britain which long since disavowed, “A woman, a dog and a walnut tree; the harder they are beaten, the better they be”, has welcomed it back in as, “A woman, a dog and a palm tree.”

But there's good sound reasons for all that

Jews and Christians tended to court their wives, rather than abduct them and rape them in front of their husbands.

When your wedding canopy is a knife at her throat, and your “meet-cute” was burning her village, there’s good reason to fear her disobedience. And when your relationship is based on being the first man to grab her as she made a run for it, there is good reason to keep her inside or cover her from head to toe.
You may be her first rapist, but your cousins and friends will have no objection to being her second and third. When rape is legal, and every adult male around you is a potential rapist, then purdah and headbags are a natural way for fathers and husbands to protect their investment.

There is nothing spiritual about Muslim modesty. It is, as Blair said, “Practical”. In a society of rapists...

Read the rest of it in my Front Page Magazine article, "Don't Worry, Be Muslim".

It's shocking and outrageous that Bachmann could confuse a Democrat like John Wayne Gacy with a Republican like John Wayne.

In other gaffe news, Bachmann was unable to fully recite the periodic table, had trouble naming all the dogs who played Lassie and once accepted a tax refund from the government. How can anyone possibly say she's qualified?

Meanwhile Obama will be headed off to his 57th state to continue his crusade against ATM's.

Venezuela's Chavez says surgery removed small cancerous tumor, larger cancerous tumor to return to work ruling Venezuela.

Remember when Ari Fleischer criticizing Maher's comments about the 9/11 terrorists was trumpeted as a horrible violation of human freedom by a ruthless administration?

New York Times bemoaned the presidential assault on free speech and the thuggish attacks on the freedom of public figures to say what they wanted.

And then Mark Halperin accurately called Obama a dick on MSNBC and Jay Carney, Obama's Fleischer, called MSNBC to denounce it and now Halperin is indefinitely suspended.

Where's the outrage from Paul Krugman and Frank Rich? Absent.

Endorsing the ruthless thuggish suppression of any criticism by the administration was Media Matters

MSNBC rightly placed its senior political analyst Mark Halperin on indefinite suspension Thursday after the Time editor-at-large inexcusably called President Obama a "dick." This is how responsible news organizations behave.

While Halperin has apologized for his comments, it is simply unacceptable to call the president of the United States -- or any president -- a dick.

I bet that sounded even better in the original Russian.

Freedom of Speech? That was something we had under the old regime. You know the one with George W. Bush. Under the new regime, Limbaugh and FOX News were targeted by the administration, and a political analyst who accurately described Obama's obnoxious behavior gets sent to the media Gulag... with the eager endorsement of an organization that claims to analyze the media, but actually suppresses criticism of The One.

The media responses have not been altogether approving of the Media Matters Pravda line. Jonathan Chait at the New Republic said it best

Halperin acknowledged in his apology that he was 'disrespectful." Since when do political commentators owe the president respect? He works for the American people, not vice versa. This is not a monarchy, and we aren't supposed to speak of the president as if he's the national father. If Halperin thinks Obama is a dick, he should go ahead and say so.

Put another way: Would Halperin be apologizing and facing suspension if he called, say, Donald Trump a dick? If not -- and I'm pretty sure he would not

Obviously not. Then he'd be daring. If he called Bush a dick, he'd get a book deal. But call Obama a dick and you commit Lèse majesté. Which is another reason why the Obama era can never be allowed to happen again. This is not a monarchy and we are not the cult of some lazy political hack with a teleprompter and a tan enough skin to appropriate the sufferings of African-Americans for his own political benefit.

The 4th of July is coming up. The worst way to celebrate it is with obeisance to a new monarchy.

The New York Daily News cover proclaims "Le Perv May Walk Free". Why because the accuser loses credibility. But their source for calling Kahn "Le Perv" is that same accuser. Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that The Daily News loses credibility?

But of course the media never loses credibility. Just their targets. Their target may now shift from Dominique Kahn to the Muslim maid, who shockingly appears to be part of some drug ring and a compulsive liar, but they will never admit fault.

The Bronx chambermaid's credibility crumbled as investigators linked her to a network of crooks and found that she had multiple bank accounts stuffed with a total of almost $100,000 in dirty cash, sources said Thursday night.

Prosecutors now believe there was little truth in anything the native of Guinea native told them since the NYPD yanked the one-time contender for the French presidency off a plane at Kennedy Airport on May 14, the sources said.

It's too early to make any definitive statements yet, but if the case against Kahn does fall apart, then the French criticisms of an American justice system where the accused are gleefully lynched in the press need to be addressed.

If this had been done to an American presidential candidate in France, we would certainly expect it.

The French are not immune to asking some serious questions about their system as well. In the months leading up to the campaign, Kahn reportedly feared being set up in a rape charge. If the case falls apart, then some questions should be asked of whether that actually did happen.

In the happy multicultural paradise of BrooklynTown, a dispute between neighbors over noisy kids transformed immediately into ISLAMOPHOBIA (evil laugh).

Islamophobia, as we know, has killed more people than Gingivitis, Snoopy and Rice Cakes combined. And we must all be vigilant to hunt after it, and beat it to death mercilessly whenever possible. Or perhaps the next suicide bomber will feel unwelcome in our country.

This week's tale of horrifying Islamophobia was trumpeted on the front page of the Daily News as 'HATE GROWS IN BROOKLYN'. Growth implies a progression of something, but don't ask liberal tabloids for headlines that make sense.

The official story was that Simchon Schwartz, a Hassidic Jew had poured beer on a Muslim neighbor and called her an Arab terrorist. This actually isn't even Islamophobia, as even in his neighbor's allegation, he never mentioned Muslims. But again when you're making up crimes, then factual inaccuracies don't matter.

Anti-Arab statements are now also treated as Islamophobia. Even when the neighbor is actually a Turk.

The actual story? The police responded to an altercation between two neighbors, both of whom claimed the other had struck first and made racist comments about them. The police chose to believe one side. The Muslim side. The newspapers chose to believe one side. The Muslim side.

It was widely and apparently inaccurately reported that Simchon Schwartz was a Hassidic Jew, which added spice to the story. Then his daughter came forward, looking like a Jersey Shore reject, to state that she was dating a Muslim and that her father never had a problem with that.

That makes it blatantly obvious that the Hassidic Jew part is also untrue. And it makes the whole thing look even more ridiculous.

No one involved seems to know the difference between Turks, Arabs and Muslims. The infinitely extensible doctrine of Islamophobia now says it's a hate crime to call a Turk, an "Arab Terrorist". Simchon Schwartz is likely an Israeli expat with a troubled family who lives around a Hassidic neighborhood. Crown Heights has no shortage of them.

A Turk living next door got into an argument with him. There was alcohol involved. One or the other man struck first. Schwartz clearly hit harder. This is a common enough dispute in New York City and around the country. And around the world. The result would normally be an arrest and a fine. But the media and the Islamophobia Scam has turned this into a major story.

Much like when a 12 year old Muslim boy, Osman Darawy pulled off the headbag of a Muslim girl, the media shrieked ISLAMOPHOBIA and spent days denouncing him, while refusing to report that he is from a Muslim family.

Yesterday it was Osman Darawy. Today it's Simchon Schwartz. Tomorrow it will be some other Joe dragged into a political and media firestorm by the enablers of Islamic thuggery, who are always on the lookout for new cases of ISLAMOPHOBIA that they can use to bolster their scam.

When Gaddafi might possibly kill people, we went into an illegal war. When Assad is killing people, we're urging negotiations (via Dan Friedman).

So who does Assad have pictures of Obama with anyway? A children's choir, a cheeseburger, a goat?

It would be kind of like this. Soros Forging a Closer Alliance with Muslim Brotherhood.

Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan addressed a local crowd in Diyarbakır, saying that: “We are the grandchildren of Saladin Ayyubi’s army that conquered Jerusalem.”

Funny, Saladin was a Kurd and Erdogan is busy stealing Kurdish seats in parliament. If Saladin were around today, he'd be at war with Erdogan or in one of his prisons.

A few days earlier, Mr Erdoğan, this time in Trabzon, reminded his party’s supporters that on May 29 “We proudly celebrated the 558th anniversary of the conquest of Istanbul.”

Compare and contrast this with Sydney, where bowing to pressure from people who claim to be aborigines, but probably barely rank up an aborigine grandmother somewhere, is describing the settlement of Australia as an "invasion".

The Turks are proud of what they have, the Australian government is ashamed. Which type of people have more staying power, shamed conquerors or proud ones?

Edward Cline, the author of the Sparrowhawk novels and occasional commenter at this blog, has an interview up at Capitalism Magazine.

There’s humor in every one of my novels, but humor must have a purpose, and not be there just for the sake of humor. Comic relief, it’s called. Comic relief can be used to underscore the good, or to undermine it.  Shakespeare used it in all but a few of his dramas and tragedies, and so have other playwrights and novelists. Humor must fit into a plot and be consistent with a plot-theme. Otherwise it’s extraneous and there just to get a laugh. Much humor is inserted into otherwise good stories as a cowardly apology. It has no purpose but to assure readers that the author doesn’t really mean what he says

Beck leaves FOX, a victory for the left, which was not able to drive out Limbaugh, but did succeed here. The difference is that Limbaugh was not dependent on a single company or a single man.

Replacing Beck is a panel discussion. One of those things everyone loves and can't get enough of. Especially when they include Juan Williams. I predict a huge uptick in ratings as the entire country rushes to tune in eager to hear a bunch of people talking to each other... on camera.

At View From the Right, Lawrence Auster credits Bloomberg's support for immigration to his Jewish ethnicity.

Bloombrain's nation-saving immigration reform consists essentially of legalizing illegal aliens. Thus Bloombrain apparently believes that legalizing 11 million sub-literate Mexicans is going to add to America's entrepreneurial and technological creativity. And he believes it so much that he says it with a straight face to the august Council on Foreign Relations.

My theory: Bloombrain represents a florid extreme of the collective liberal Jewish narcissism I have spoken of previously. Such narcissists see every issue through the filter of Jewish experience and sensibililty. Since Jewish immigrants to America and their offspring became successful entrepreneurs and professionals, the same must be equally true of all immigrants, even Mexicans with 90 IQs.

If Auster has discovered a Jewish sensibility in Bloomberg, that's right up there with finding a cure for polio. Bloomberg is the least Jewish of the city's three Jewish mayors. And he avoids the topic except around election time, when he dusts off his Yiddish and visits Israel. Something that quite a few politicians do in between a photo op at a deli and a black church. If Beame and Koch were Bagels, Bloomberg is an English Muffin with a Kosher stamp somewhere on the bottom.

Bloomberg's rhetoric is virtually the same as Arnold Schwarzenegger. And of personalities ranging from John McCain to Rupert Murdoch. It's virtually the same consensus in parts of Europe that have hardly any Jews in them.

Blind support for unlimited immigration is less racial, than it is political. The progressive narrative says that a nation's identity is external, the product of nurture by the state. Bring any group of people, run them through the system and they will come out Dutchmen, Englishmen, Norwegians, etc. It is not people who define the state, it is the state that defines the people. The idea long predates the current immigration debates. And it has survived even in the age of multiculturalism.

Auster makes the mistake of treating the liberal politics of many Jews as anti-Christian neurosis. Which would hold up better if the average Latino immigrant were not a devout Catholic. And if Jewish liberals did not equally despise Jewish and Christian conservatives. The interpretation of Jewish liberalism as some quirk from the ghetto, rather than a common failing by many of the best educated and wealthiest Jews and non-Jews in the Western world, is not only outmoded, it hides the real scope of the problem.

And it's ridiculous when discussing younger generations whose ghetto experience comes from 15 minutes of the Fiddler on the Roof movie that they caught on TV. Who have no religion, let alone any sense of religious persecution, and who are likely to get married in an interfaith ceremony with a pastor and a rabbi. Who are not afraid of Christians, but are afraid of "religious extremists" of all denominations, except Muslims. Religious extremists being people who take religion of the non-Oprah variety seriously.

The time when any Jews felt the need to justify immigration as self-justification is long past. The average liberal American Jew from New York was born here, and immigration to him is a distant bit of family lore, not relevant to his identity. He certainly feels no shame or uncertainty over it. He does treat that background as universal, but in this he is no different than his Irish and Italian counterparts. The universalization of experience has become a cultural mandate. Part of the state as primary nurturer of citizens.

Steve Sailer at VDare jumps in with the following...

Instead, it’s largely the outcome of various stereotypical Jewish tendencies, such as neurotic anxiety, persecution complexes, and a weakness for he-who-says-A-must-say-B verbal logic, famously compiled in comedies such as Woody Allen’s Annie Hall and Philip Roth’s Portnoy’s Complaint.

This is a little like using W.C. Fields and Benny Hill as representative.

These excerpts sum up the problem with trying to find a uniquely Jewish take on liberalism. There isn't one. Jews are statistically more likely to be liberals, but their liberalism is not particularly unique.

Bloomberg's support for immigration is no different than that of Arnold Schwarzenegger and John McCain. It's pro-business sentiments mixed with political pandering, diluted with an idealistic view of immigration. It's marked by a refusal to consider the consequences, because there isn't political room to accept them.

Jewish liberals will pay lip service to Jewish immigration, but they rarely know anything about it. Similarly Irish-American Democrats will push the relevant emotional buttons. And WASP's will mention the Mayflower. These are mere placeholders, not really rooted in anything deeper than the need to hang their dubious politics on a convenient symbol.

The issue has never been immigration, it is destructive immigration. And that is a discussion that is very difficult to have-- as Wilders has demonstrated. Not because it threatens anyone's ethnic identity,  but because it threatens their politics. Their faith in the ability of the state to uplift and transform the people under its control.

Olivia de Havilland turns 95.

Mickey Kuhn, who, in Gone With the Wind, played de Havilland's character's son Beau Wilkes as a seven-year-old, has been communicating with de Havilland in recent years via letters and notes. He offers this assessment of her: "She's a lovely lady. She's just the epitome of class. And she's a delight to talk to."

Kuhn also notes de Havilland's concern about Stalinist atrocities and her resistance to efforts of the international Communist movement to infiltrate Hollywood. He states: "It's nice to know that she was one of those in Hollywood who saw through the Communist plot."

Religious Jews in Jerusalem were unable to unite around a candidate and so they got Nir Barkat, and now Barkat brought in Meretz, a radical left wing anti-Israel party.

The Chairman of the East Jerusalem Public Complaints Bureau, Aryeh King, affiliated with the National Union-National Religious Party, castigated the decision of Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat to appoint left-wing Meretz party council member Meir Margalit to handle the ultra-sensitive East Jerusalem file in the municipality.

“He leads the Committee against the Demolishing of Homes, an organization that supports a boycott of Israel, and rebuilds East Jerusalem court-order demolished homes. He will be in a position to approve or deny demolishing in East Jerusalem, and this is a severe conflict of interests. From now on, the municipality representative on any possible forum will be a Meretz man in favor of the division of the city. He has been defaming the State of Israel for years, and will now decide on East Jerusalem projects. The Mayor has made a ‘left turn’, and the public should relate to him accordingly.”

The Meretz left-wing party that Dr. Meir Margalit belongs to, supports a Palestinian state, the dismantling of most of the Jewish towns in Judea and Samaria, and the division of Jerusalem.

Why even bother appointing Margalit, when Barkat could just appoint Abbas?

The real question is will anyone who let this happen last time around learn from their mistake so that Barkat doesn't get to be the second coming of Teddy Kollek for another term.

a NEWSWEEK investigation of Pentagon contracting practices in Abu Dhabi, Kuwait, and Bahrain has uncovered more than $14 billion paid mostly in sole-source contracts to companies controlled by ruling families across the Persian Gulf.

You didn't think we had bases there out of the goodness of their hearts and ours.

Ruling families hosting other U.S. bases in the Gulf seem to be profiting in the same way. Consider Kuwait, where Arifjan, the major U.S. base, serves as the chief military supply route to Iraq. Like the Al Nahyan family in Abu Dhabi, the al-Sabah clan runs Kuwait, as well as its national oil concern, Kuwait Petroleum Co., which has received some $4 billion in Pentagon contracts since 2005, much of it in sole-source contracts. The DLA explains, “Contracts providing fuel destined for Iraq are sole source due to Kuwaiti restrictions.”

Yet, according to contract documents, that money has bypassed the competitive bidding process that is supposed to accompany any -purchase—of firearms, flak jackets, or fuel—by the Pentagon.

Oh they're competitive. Anyone who competes with them dies.

  3. Slight error in your piece about Beck. He was not forced out; Beck has repeatedly said he wanted to expand and change the way he presents his ideas. He has been hiring people like S.E. Cupp to do conservative outreach programming for college kids, besides working on documentaries, an August event in Israel, etc. His new GBTV venture is the umbrella for all of this stuff.

  4. @Charlie

    There's a big difference between disapproving of who your daughter is dating and killing said daughter for doing so.

    In most Muslim states it's against the law for a Muslim woman to date or marry a non-Muslim. But in Muslim states like Pakistan I doubt the women are worried so much about the law as they are at being murdered by members of their own family.

  5. With regard to the bit on immigration, why is it that the legality of the immigrant is brushed under the carpet?
    Can nothing be legally transacted in America anymore?

    For Charlie.
    If you have to ask what the difference is between Islam and Judaism then no thinking Jew would accept you as a son in law.

  6. Anonymous2/7/11

    I followed the link to your article "Don't Worry, Be Muslim." I'm still laughing about the idea that Islam was an attempt to return Judaism and Christianity to their origins. That is not the first time I've heard that outrageous idea and it seems to be a recurring theme these days. We're always hearing how all 3 of the great faiths revere Abraham as the father of their faith. As if that's supposed to reassure us that the Islamic religion is just as mainstream as the other two.
    I chanced upon the website of a Dr. Pascha, a Muslim apologist of sorts. I read about how the Christian world (including the U.S., the Anglican Church and the U.N.) ought to issue communiques, resolutions, etc. to acknowledge the Muslim world's role in bringing to the forefront the belief that Jesus's mother, Mary was indeed a virgin. Poor Mary's reputation suffered for 700 years until the Muslims came along and affirmed the belief in her purity. The Christian world owes them big time. (I'm not real sure how the Jews are supposed to feel about that). We Christians sure are supposed to breathe a huge sigh of relief, because doggonit - the Muslims believe in Jesus too. I'm wondering if this is what Tony Blair had in mind when he said that the Koran is a progressive book etc. We needed Islam to return Christianity to the belief in Mary's virginity.

    Concerning the treatment of women in Islam I found this in the good doctor's writing: That is how it was that over fourteen centuries ago Islam forever nailed the three interrelated concepts of Gender Neutrality, Gender Respect and Gender Inclusiveness in all forms of human communication.

    Well, there you have it. Any concerns about the treatment of women under Islam have been laid to rest. Daniel, I trust you won't be writing about that issue any more. (For those of you with trouble detecting irony I hope you will recognize that suggestion for what it is).

    Re. Don't Worry Be Muslim

    Because of British leaders love and ADORATION (worship?) of Islam, Britain (once Great Britain) has become a very dangerous place for indigenous, non-Muslim female children and ALL non-Muslim females. Remember the phrases, "The sun never sets on the British empire" and "Brittania rules the waves"? Now ISLAM rules in Britain. All by invitation of Britain's Labor Party who brought in huge numbers of Muslims in a DELIBERATE act to change British society to a multi-cultural society - although multi-cultural is incorrect. The term should be changed to Muslim-cultural.

    It is open-season for Muslim males on non-Muslim females in Britain and all over Europe as has been reported in articles over the last few years and in the last few days. What are UK and European leaders doing about this great tragedy? They are importing more Muslims.

    British Schoolgirl's Testimony - Muslims Threaten Children With Violence & Rape Outside School Daily http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24cg_pnpZJE

    A nation's leadership that refuses to protect its own children is a nation that cannot survive.

    Muslims are ALLOWED by Western leaders to do absolutely anything they want. No act is restricted for top favorite Muslims - nothing is off limits.

  8. Richard,

    it would seem acc to Ailes that he was.

    I wouldn't waste my time on a known troll.

    the more laws are passed, the less law there is.

    it lets them claim that Islam is paradoxically the original religion, even though it's actually last on line

  9. Anonymous2/7/11

    Good point Daniel

  10. Ailes gave a "I don't care how you put it" comment to NY Mag, and the rest of the "Beck was fired" comments I've seen are from the usual factually-challenged hategoons on the left.

  11. "The official story was that Simchon Schwartz, a Hassidic Jew had poured beer on a Muslim neighbor and called her an Arab terrorist. This actually isn't even Islamophobia, as even in his neighbor's allegation, he never mentioned Muslims. But again when you're making up crimes, then factual inaccuracies don't matter."

    Why would they report the actual news when fiction is more compelling that a simple neighor dispute?

  12. Really, just because Muhammad stated his was an "Abrahamic" faith does that make it so? After all, I don't think the Muslims hold the NT, Tanak or Torah holy at all -- because all of them have been superseded (in whole or in part) by the Quran and Hadeeths and are inferior to it.

  13. they don't even claim they superseded, they claim all the other scriptures are fakes or tampered with

Remembering Muslim Colonialism on September 11

Anyone who cared to dig through the graveyards of Sudan already knew that Muslims mattered more than Africans to us. The sky full of jets that we dispatched to bomb Yugoslavia on behalf of Muslim terrorists never clouded the skies of Khartoum. But they did show up to bomb Tripoli so that Islamist thugs could begin torturing and murdering Africans.

In the left's pyramid of races, some matter more than others, and Arabs are higher than Africans. So much higher that Sudan is piled with corpses, but the mere thought of Islamist rebels losing in Libya was enough to send in the air forces of bankrupt Western countries already tied up in too many places.

The primacy of the Arab Muslim over the African Christian is a recent thing in the liberal landscape born in part of realpolitik and the red enthusiasm for revolutionary violence. It is a thing which almost no one discusses because it has gone unnoticed. The racial vocabulary of it is one that few are even able to read.

Most still process Obama as an African-American, but while his father was from Africa and he spent part of his life in America-- he is not African-American, because he is not the conjunction of the two. His heritage was Muslim, and so was his Indonesian upbringing at the hands of one of the participants in the genocide of East Timor Christians.

Obama's books studiously attempt to mimic the questions of African-American identity in a painfully literary style that reveals its artificiality. Obama's compulsive borrowing of uncredited quotes from African-American writers and poets shows that same pursuit of authenticity, which always escapes him.

Still to most Americans race comes down to skin color, not culture, and the left believes fervently in the brotherhood of all "brown people" confronting white supremacy, an absurd European leftist construct of little relevance in a continent where European colonialism was a flash in the plan, but Arab-Muslim colonialism has been a going concern for over a thousand years.

The overthrow of Khaddafi by Islamist rebels backed by Western jets is yet another victory for Muslim colonialism in Africa, which is being celebrated with massacres of Africans. Political and media elites in the West who are besotted with Muslim democracy can't see past their theories of political history in which every country ends up just like them to understand the real conflicts in the region.

Even Belgium at the heart of the EU is hardly a poster child for harmony with the Flemish and the Walloons, not to mention the Basque terrorism in Spain and the IRA in Northern Ireland as reminders that ethnic conflicts have not gone away even in Europe where there is far less at stake.

It's only 70 miles from the Italian island of Lampedusa to Tunisia, but the distance in history is far greater than the boat trip made by so many refugees. It's the difference between a continent where ethnic conflicts are primarily linguistic and political, and a continent where they are genocidal.

The Holocaust was the last zero sum ethnic conflict in Western Europe, where the political forces that had resented their loss of power in the last two centuries finally got their chance to vent their fury on the ethnic minority whose emancipation had come to represent everything they hated about the rise of the republics. But Muslim immigration is bringing the zero sum conflict back to Europe.

Terrorism, riots, murders and rapes are the traditional brutal way that ethnic conflicts play out, and the introduction of Islam to Europe, has added layers of furious Pakistanis, Algerians, Turks, Somalis and others on top of the fading ethnic conflicts of native Europeans. The fate of Northern Ireland or the linguistic perils of Belgium are likely to matter very little when the majority of children speak Urdu, and the Orange and the Green give way to the Green and the Black.

But Europe is only beginning to experience a slice of what everyday life is like in parts of Nigeria, India or Israel. And as bad as the No Go Zones of Paris, the rapes of Oslo or the mosques of Munich may seem, it's only the beginning of a road which ends in the graveyards of Sudan or the ghettos of Yemen.

North Africa was colonized long before the French got there, it remains colonized long after DeGaulle waxed his mustache and put on his best Petain act for the Muslims of Algeria. After bombing Libya, we have made it safe for the Muslim colonialists to massacre the continent's native Africans... in the name of democracy, human rights and the rest of that nonsense. Meanwhile the massacres continue in Sudan, despite all the backpatting over South Sudan, and they will continue because this is the nature of the beast.

If bombs are still going off in Northern Ireland and Spain, then why would anyone seriously expect that the lamb would lie down with the jackal in North Africa? Religious conflicts within Islam are settled only when the winners have wiped out the losers or beaten them down so much that the losers are treated as being outside Islam and live as Dhimmis. And conflicts between Muslim colonists and the natives are fought in the same manner, except that the losers are expected to convert or live as second-class citizens in their own country.

Muslim colonialism is behind the endless conflict in Israel where the successful uprising of a minority group has turned the attention of the entire Muslim Ummah to stamping it out-- with the support of the European and American left, and the increasing sympathy of their governments. And second and third generation Israelis who still occasionally visit Auschwitz but fail to understand that this is what zero sum ethnic conflicts look like when you're the minority with no territory to stand on have accepted their portrayal as the villains for all the wrong reasons.

The Western message is that whether you're Black or Jewish-- you matter less than a Muslim does. Your life is worth less than that of a Muslim. Your political aspirations are worth less than theirs are and your national rights are infinitely inferior to theirs. This message was sent before Obama and before September 11, but it has become louder after both of those events. The illusion of parity is completely gone.

Western military intervention in Kuwait and Yugoslavia was followed by atrocities that were rarely reported on. Kuwait's ethnic cleansing and Kosovar ethnic cleansing of Christians were directly approved of by the Bush and Clinton administrations as being within the rights of the people we had fought for. Obama, a man that even most African-Americans wrongly think of as one of them, will turn a blind eye to the Libyan Arab massacres of Africans as he has all along.

President Ford and Secretary of State Kissinger encouraged and covered up the beginnings of Muslim genocide of Christians in East Timor. So did Carter and every president after him. By the time Obama appointed Dennis Blair, who had played a key role in keeping the slaughter going even on the cusp of the 21st century, as the Director of National Intelligence, and made his own Bitburg visit to Indonesia-- these latest obscenities were the continuation of an ongoing national policy that valued the national rights and lives of Muslims higher than those of their victims.

From Asia to Africa to the Middle East, the story remains the same. Muslim colonialism destroys the histories, the cultures and the lives of millions-- and the world nods sympathetically. Resistance to Muslim colonialism is harshly quashed, whether it's in Cote d'Ivoire in Africa, courtesy of the UN and the IMF, or the streets of London where the bobbies who couldn't do much about the rioters are always available to shut down protest marches that might offend Muslims.

The Ground Zero Mosque is no different than the Al-Aqsa Mosque built on top of the holiest site in Judaism, or the Babri Mosque built on top of the destroyed Hindu temple of Rama. And the attacks of September 11 were no different than the piles of butchered Africans in Sudan or the Israeli family slaughtered in their own home. All of them are the bloody toll of Muslim colonialism which will keep on going until it is stopped.

Muslim colonialism will only be stopped when we confront it for what it is, the brutal spree of an ideology that claims supremacy through religion, which whines incessantly even as it butchers leaving a trail of corpses across continents, subjugated cultures, burning cars, destroyed memorials and shattered lives.

Obama insists that September 11 should be a day of community service-- and he's right. The best way to serve our community is to stand up to those who would destroy it and turn our children and grandchildren into second class citizens in their own country.

Standing up to Muslim colonialism is not done on just a single day by a single people, it is up to everyone on every single continent, Christians, Jews, Hindus, Zoroastrians, Atheists and even those Muslims who know that things have to change, to stand up in resistance. It is up to us to deny the lie that the lives of Muslims, their political aspirations and their power is worth more than ours.

It is up to us to write, to speak out, to protest and to tell the truth about over a thousand years of terror and the story of our ancestors of every religion and race who resisted them, who struck a blow against Muslim colonialism, whether it was by fighting, by teaching the next generation or by simply surviving. By continuing their resistance, we honor them and their sacrifices.

That is the best way to honor the dead, whether of September 11, or of every day in every year when our ancestors and our people have been oppressed and in many cases remain oppressed by Muslim colonialism. And it is the best way to serve our communities by protecting their future and showing that we will continue their resistance into the future. We will not give up. We will not go away. And we will not submit.

  1. When is it going to be alright to engage in physical self-defense against these hateful people? Pointing out Muslim hate and predation matters, but when will Western societies take the next step that is the only sure way to stave off dhimmihood?

  2. I agree. We will not give up. We will not go away. And we will not submit.

  3. when you not confront to the beast
    then the beast become more and more powerful
    and why in the world nobody make steps to resistance against the beast, why we're waiting till it's late - political reasons or financial reasons
    why not to show the beast who "is who", than the animal will run away? if you're not scare of dogs, whatever, it's just run away

  4. "We will not give up. We will not go away. And we will not submit."

    Well stated as usual, Daniel, except for the fact that the West has collectively given up, on the instigation of our glorious leaders, which is amply illustrated by the need for the few remaining voices to never be silenced.

    We have also abandoned common sense and any semblance to fairness or justice, whilst deeming it an honour and privilege to submit as dhimmis in our own lands, and Janissaries for Islam in theirs.

    We can and often do take consolation in trivial victories, such as the end of bin Laden or a burqa ban that we can only pretend to enforce, and to be fair these do allow many to sleep soundly at night.

    But no matter how one cares to frame it, there is no way for Western civilisation to overcome, or even survive Islam, without bloodshed on a scale never before witnessed on this planet.

    Our only hope, in my opinion, is for Islam to initiate a catastrophe that makes 911 seem like a Sunday school outing, with infidel losses running into the hundreds of thousands if not millions. And then for enough browbeaten innocents to awaken from their enforced and often legislated slumber born of complacency and stunning ignorance.

    Then would come the difficult bit, to set aside democratic politeness and suicidal principles for long enough to once and for all confront and eradicate the dysunctional ideology.

    But my guess is that we have lost the will to become embroiled in a religious war, and that future generations will scratch their heads in disbelief that the most advanced civilisation in history so readily capitulated to the most backward.

  5. Anonymous7/9/11

    Daniel is obviously spot on.
    The only "optimistic" remark I would add is since islam is unable to cope with modernity, large pockets of bright and educated non muslim people will always be allowed to survive in order to treat,care,translate or discover.
    All these tasks are out of reach for most muslims .

  6. Anonymous7/9/11

    I am an ex-muslim, living in a muslim country. I want freedom from this ideology of hate and arab supremacy!!! Please, western world, HELLOOOOOO! Wake up! Or one day you will be dreaming of freedom, like me...

  7. Dar al-Islam is unifyiing for its final jihad against Dar al-Harb.

    The Muslim world is seething with a thousand and one real and imagined grievances and resentments against the West.

    They feel humiliated by the West's accomplishments compared with their own inbred backwardness. They want revenge for the Crusades, colonialism, cartoons, Israel, ice-cream wrappers, Salman Rushdie, science, piggy banks and all the other humiliations that they believe in their paranoid state that the kuffars have deliberately inflicted on them.

    To Muslims, all relationships are of dominance/submission.

    If they can't be dominant, they sulk, whine and claim victim status to sympathetic bleeding-heart liberals, while secretly nursing their pent-up fury and humiliation.

    Once they think they might get the upper hand, the sulking immediately flips into murderous hostility.

    So, kuffars, beware the coming Islamageddon. Once Muslims can take on the West there'll be an orgy of rape, murder, torture and mutilation that will make the two previous world wars seem like a family squabble. http://crombouke.blogspot.com/2010/01/honor-shame-culture-and-humiliation-in.html

  8. Daniel wrote: “Obama insists that September 11 should be a day of community service-- and he's right. The best way to serve our community is to stand up to those who would destroy it and turn our children and grandchildren into second class citizens in their own country.”

    But once he realizes that what we’re doing is not what he intended, he’d get Jimmy Hoffa to send the Teamsters and the SEIU thugs to bloody a few heads and put down that kind of “community service.” Isn’t this what the left is doing to the Tea Party already?

    But, we fight back. Daniel fights back. Robert Spencer, Steve Emerson and Pamela Geller and so many others fight back. I myself have spent at least half a million words warning about not only Obama’s depredations, and those of past presidents, but also about the Islamic campaign of conquest here and abroad.

    I would remind you once again that it is our fine friends in "Law Enforcement" who enable both the Religion of Peace and the Union Thugs to do their thing. Until THEY are dealt with, NOTHING will change. And there is ONLY ONE message they will understand.

  10. Thank you, Daniel. A truly awesome and heartfelt article that righteously honors the memory of the slain of 9/11.
    I contend that the fight against Islamic colonialism is two pronged.
    The Western Left, the internal enemies, who aid and abet the Jihadists, must be defeated FIRST, politically, in order to remove the treasonous cover and aid that they give to the Jihadists.
    Once that is accomplished, sane leaders can then turn their attentions towards defeating the external enemy.
    It will take a world wide effort akin to the one that smashed the Nazi's to finally end the horror of the moslem expansion.

  11. Excellent post Sultan Knish. The contents within this post are obvious to many of us it seems so called western leaders ignore what is the truth and are aiding and abetting the enemy. Yes Islam is the enemy of western civilization.

  12. Halycon7/9/11

    This article is probably one of the best you have ever written Mr Knish.

    I know that you've meticulously explored many facets of Islam but you're offering a good slap-in-the-face to wake everybody up and cast aside hypocrisy and indifference.

    Obama should have this nailed to the front door of the White door.

  13. An excellent article, Daniel, which rightfully sets the difference between the aggressors, and their victims.
    This truth has to spread, and quickly.

  14. United States politicians: the best politicians islamonazi petrodollars can buy...

  15. I recently had a discussion w/a fellow kuffar in India. Amazingly, he had never heard that between 80 and 100 MILLION Hindus were slaughtered, enslaved or forcibly converted in the Islamonazi invasions of the Indian sub-continent. I was surprised we had our little conversation considering he was at work! He seemed to realize the problem islamonzism represented though.

  16. Anonymous7/9/11

    DEE is right. We are so far down the road of submission that it is going to take a massive lose of life to wake people up.

  17. revereridesagain7/9/11

    It's sobering to note how many of us are coming to realize that it is unlikely that anything short of a decisive crisis is going to shake people out of their complacency at this point. In the 30s it was the invasion of Poland, and even then it took Pearl Harbor to shock this country into the realization that it was surrounded, outmanned, and outgunned by hostile empires who intended to cripple and destroy us. (But, in spite of MAD, it never really got to that point with the Soviet Union, which has perhaps contributed to what observers of disaster-related behavior call our "permanent vacation mentality".)

    Perhaps because this ideology hides behind its "religion" status, I suspect there is going to be an especially acute sense of desperate convulsion in the process of throwing off the tightening coils of the Islamic python. Too many people are going to want to deny that a "religion" could do this, right up to the last moment.

  18. The greatest defeat Islam can suffer is to be ignored. Of course, as in all extinction processes, ignoring Islamic adherents will lead initially to greater efforts to be recognized. Those efforts will look strangely like violent terrorist acts. Nonetheless, one can be pro-America, pro-Israel, pro-secularized Muslim without ever mentioning Islam. "I don't hear you, Mahmud, Mohamed, Ahmad!"

  19. Thanks for standing up for the Serbs. That means more to me than you will ever know.

    I am glad to see the many comments which means people are awake. That's a bit of a relief. I am also weary that the more people wait with inactivity the harder it will be to uproot the problem.

    I'm sorry that it took the Islamization of Europe for people to add Africa to their fingers as they list the many atrocities that Islam has committed. But nevertheless, I am glad that the problem is recognized.

    Its so global, I don't even know what a possible solution would look like. And I sincerely don't think ignoring the problem will make it go away.

    in his usuall manner Greenfield is spreading theTea Party lies. First of all , Hollywood is on it ! Havnt you see all the movies, documentaries and very visible and loud protests? Cmone, get real! Im still suspicious about the rebels being the Tea Party in diguise, and the picture of the guy with the large knife? Its a snap from the "Iron Chef" , recent american export to Libya . The show is very popular there, but due to food shortages the competitors must improvise.

    P.S. the meat was said to be very difficult to chew

    I have a friend who isn't as close to me as several years ago as we now live so far apart, but she is totally gung-ho on the Tea Party. They seem radical but they aren't the enemy or rebels in disguise. From what I have learned when they tried to recruit me (I WOULD NEVER JOIN THEM!) that they are wanting change in the USA and are tired of how the gov't screws over the people and now with Obama, they are going to see to it he is voted out of office. That is as much as I can tell of their rebellion.

  24. monika9/9/11

    Gee,Patricia G., what i wrote was satire, and, by the way, Tea Party is not a Party . It is a movement of great and free people. I hope you will reconsider.

    The guy in the first picture on the extreme right looks uncannily like the new Islamist head of the Libyan armed forces, who's threatening to sue the UK for torturing him. Aw, boo hoo...

    What's the odds that the black guy in the picture was beheaded?

  26. Anonymous12/9/11

    It shocks me that the population at large doesn't see the dangers of Islam. Islam is an invading army with the sole goal of total domination. They have planted the seed here in the US and soon they will breed themselves into a majority position. It is time to treat Islam for what it is: A military doctrine masquerading as a religion and being protected as a religion by our laws. Just because a billion people are doing it... that doesn't mean it's right.

    SK the hard truth is for Israel and Jews is that if a country like Turkey remained Christian or any one of the pre-Christian religions or followed any other religion in the world, you would not see the Turkish aggression under Ergodan today. If Pakistan and Bangladesh remained Hindu, Jews like Daniel Pearl would not be horrifically beheaded, and the Jews of Mumbai would not have been specifically hunted and ensured killed along with over a hundred others (goes without saying Hindus would never have had their holocaust over centuries). If Egypt remained Coptic Christian or any other curent religion or remained following any pre-Christian religion you would not see Egyptians viscerally hating Jews so much that they would seige the Israeli embassy for 13 hours. Hindus, Buddhists, Zoroastrians in fact all non-Abrahamic religions do not have centuries of history persecuting Jews. Only Judaism's offshoots Christianity and Islam do. Christianity seems to have turned the corner and today are much less likely to mass murder Jews. Islam I do not see that changing. Islam is different. As long as any Gentile or Jew convert follows Islam, the scimitar will be at the Jew's throat. As long as their are Islamic countries Israel will always be under seige because it is Jewish and that too in the Arab Muslim heartland that was once and therefore must always be under Muslim rule. Israel's peace treaties will buy very temporary truces. But the hard truth is that peace for Israel will come once gentiles and Jew converts leave Islam and return to either the own gentile faiths (Zoroastrianism for Iranians, Hinduism for Pakistanis and Bangladeshis, Christianity for Turks and Egyptians or another gentile religion). The survival and thriving of other gentile religions among gentiles is the survival of Judaism. All those other religions are very compatible to true democracy unlike Islam. Notice how Hindu majority India is a democracy and has now a growing economy, unlike Islamic state Pakistan which is a joke of a democracy and survives through jizya from terrorism.

  28. Well Jews were persecuted quite a bit by pre-Christian religions as well, that includes the Zoroastrians I'm afraid, and some of the others you mentioned

    I don't want to get into the whole history, but it's certainly there

  29. Anonymous15/9/11

    One crucial difference is that in other gentile religions there is nothing about Jews, while in Islam Jews along with Christians are condemned 5 times a day and the end of the world for Muslims come when Muslims kill Jews. Hamas has that scripture in its charter. And Zoroastrianism is limited to certain region in the world. Iran as Zoroastrian would not be as involved or automatically on the side of the Muslim Palestinians. There is no other ummah of believers spanning at least 57 countries though more if you include living as a minority in the West with nurtured hatred for Jews thanks to their religion.

    Serbian workers in Libya (they are the most numerous remaining community of Europeans in the country, as many refused to leave because they identified with what was happening in Libya, having seen the same US-led (anyone naive enough to think it was France and UK that started it, without US 'blessing'?) aggression in their own country), as well as the black Africans (not, 'black' is an essential component) were singled out for violence and retribution. A number have been executed as 'Gaddafi-supporters'. The "unarmed protesters", and teh majority of Libyans, with the notable exception of Gaddafi, see black people as little more than potential slave-material, and certainly not as equals. It's clear why Gaddafi's calls for greater African unity ('gasp! you mean the black too?'-thinks your average Lybian) must have been very unpopular.

  31. Anonymous21/9/11

    As for Christian-Jewish relationship, let's face it: The middle ages were a time of violence and much hatred. Had the Jews been a majority during that time, they would have probably treated Christians the same. Now, that doesn't make it okay or justifiable, but it just means that such were the times. NOW, WHAT WE NEED TO FOCUS ON is WHETHER there is a CONCRETE COMPONENT OF THE RELIGION that INCITES HATRED AND VIOLENCE against another. The truth is THERE ISN'T in either Christianity (TRUE Christianity, and not the Christianity of someone who isn't interested in self-cultivation, and only wishes to find excuses for their hatred and immorality) or Judaism. THERE IS, however IN ISLAM. It CALLS IT'S FOLLOWERS TO HATE, and it's self-cultivation component is rather secondary to most. In fact, I dare say that among Abrahamic religions there is none other that is lawyer-like. I talk about the immoral things Muslims justify simply by citing the Quran. That is the problem. The fact that so many are not approaching God, but are just worshipping the scripture. It's similar to the Bible-idolatry found chiefly among some modern Protestants. The sick worship of the text of the Bible, without any appreciation of it's true meaning, or any real closeness to God. That is the problem. People who are so painfully immoral and hateful, who will never see Heaven because they are so full of evil, using religion as an excuse and justification for evil. That applies to Christians and Jews, but as for Muslims: I'm afraid some parts of their MAINSTREAM TEACHING are equally distancing from God and part of Quran leave NO room for non-violent and non-hateful interpretation. They ask for evil to be done, and full stop. You can't say 'it's wrong interpretation'. THAT IS THE PROBLEM.

Actions To Take For Stain Security On Your Carpet

Stain defense right after carpet and rug cleansing, is needed in buy to fully restore the original protective coating on the carpet fibers. This coating is normally utilized by the manufactures to supply soil and stain resistance, and water repellant houses to the cloth. This kind of a coating however, is not long lasting and will deteriorate with time, wear, and chemical reactions.

Appropriate stain safety on your carpet acts like a wax coating on your car and will:

Type an invisible shield which will resist staining by oils and grease
Provide a water repellant coating
Stop soils or stains from adhering to the carpet fibers
Avoid dyes from sticking to dye web sites, particularly on nylon carpeting

There are distinct kinds of stain protectors even though, and not all are similarly successful or acceptable for use on your carpet. Generally, the two kinds of protectors typically utilized these days are silicones or fluorochemicals. Silicones are less costly, and are primarily used for water stain resistance. Fluorochemicals are far more expensive but have fantastic qualities that will make your carpet resistant not only to drinking water primarily based spills, but also to oil dependent liquids and all kinds of grime and soils. Steer clear of silicone dependent protectors, unless expense is a significant problem.

Overseas content like dry dust or soils which might fall unto carpets dealt with with fluorochemical protectors, will normally continue to be on leading of the fibers, and could be vacuumed off rather very easily. Liquid spill could also be taken off effortlessly if they are spotted right away. Blotting with a towel soaked with simple water, will normally suffice.

There are two kinds of fluorochemical protectors – drinking water primarily based, and solvent based. The h2o dependent variety is suited for application on carpet, even though solvent dependent protectors are generally employed on upholstery materials.

There are certain downsides however. correx and reagents could result in deterioration of the carpet security, and speak to with your carpet fibers soon after defense must be limited or averted altogether. Below is a short checklist:

Bleaches and other chlorinated compounds
Antistatic compounds
Acme medicines
Chemical substances with a pH beneath 6 or earlier mentioned ten (sturdy acids or alkalis)
Liquid fabric softeners
Dry solvent cleaners

Also, chemical residues from carpet cleaning solvents have to be washed out and extracted completely, or they will lead to a reduction in the soil resistance houses of the carpet protector.

Your very best bet is to get the guidance of an experienced carpet cleansing expert. You will most likely be quoted on a top of the line fluorochemical protector. As stated prior to, this will be reasonably pricey, but it will be value it. Your carpet will continue to be cleanse for lengthier, with just gentle vacuuming and wise spot and spill administration. You will be able to have cleanse carpets for for a longer time deep steam cleansing intervals, and the daily life of your carpet will be extended.

Apart from that, you will be meeting all the carpet manufacturer’s warranty stipulations, and conforming to their tips. Carpet cleansing and maintenance will be just that easier overall.

Remember to keep in mind to check your carpet warranty to see what is excluded from your guarantee. You could conserve a lot of funds by just subsequent these handful of straightforward precautions.

Having Pizza for Easter

12" Hand Tossed Extravaganzza (Domino's)

Jalapeno Peppers, Pizza Sauce, Extra Cheese, Pepperoni, Ham, Onions, Green Pepper, Mushrooms, Sausage, Beef Crumble, Black Olives

Cheddar Habanero Crust Dip Cup

With delivery and tax it was $20.81. It's a medium, I'll eat half of it when it gets her at 11am then half of it at around 5pm. This is my Easter feast.

I'm not getting up to much today. I'm just going to watch something on Netflix or Prime. Not even sure what yet. May be a couple movies, may be a series. I've added a couple new series to both services, so might be one of them.

I miss the days of family meals on holidays. Mom always went out of her way to make it special, even if she sucked at cooking. It was always special. The best part is being with people you Love. That is long gone now and because of the pandemic, it's harder to even be with friends. There is a limit to the number of people who gather, so they will be with family and I won't be able to attend. Not like I often attended anyway. I don't like being the odd man out in a gathering, so I'd really rather be here with my TV and some pizza, and my memories.

P.S. the Jalapeno Peppers are an add-on.

Meet the Team: Kate Smith

Reading Time 1 minute and 40 seconds
Date 2 October 2019

Kate Smith - Collections Manager

My name is Kate Smith and I am the Collections Manager at David Livingstone Birthplace Museum. As a heritage consultant, my role is to organise the museum’s collection and ensure objects are safe and accessible in anticipation of the museum’s reopening in 2020.

The 5,000 objects in the museum's care have a diverse and complex history. Some objects came from donors in Lanarkshire, some from Southern Africa, and some were collected and owned by David Livingstone himself. This unique collection is unlike any other in Scotland, which makes it very exciting to work with.

I most enjoy working with natural history, social history and archaeological collections. Scottish archaeology has always been near and dear to me, and I’ve participated in archaeological digs across Scotland and in Southern Italy.

Now we are focussed on the objects inside the building, and the collections at the DLBM are chock-full of taxidermy, mining tools, and even an umbrella stand made from an elephant foot. I love these strange amalgams, brought together to explore the story of David Livingstone and his contemporaries.

The collection is an incredible vehicle to discuss different social issues and themes important to Scotland including history, science, theology, and contemporary politics. The DLBM collection can and will reflect contemporary society as it continually evolves, rather than solely reflect past achievements.

One of my main goals as part of the Birthplace is to future-proof the museum collection to ensure the objects remain safe, accessible, and therefore relevant to future visitors and researchers. To do this, lots of work has gone into re-numbering and cataloguing the collection. T his is done because the museum's collection, which came into being in the 1920's, has many instances of duplication and human error. This is quite typical of older museums! As part of this project I have the opportunity to address and fix these issues, working item-by-item through the entire collection for the first time in the museum’s history.

I really enjoy museums for their unique quirks and issues. No one is exactly the same as another. The same way I collected stones as a child and compared them with my friends’, now I work with protected collections of objects and compare them with those in other museums to figure out just how special they are.
