I'm an Israeli. I oppose expansion of settlements. I believe, that negotiations in good faith should be conducted when sides don't create facts on the ground while negotiating. Settlements can be removed, as it was in Sinai after peace agreement with Egypt and in Gaza when Israel pulled out of there. But does Israel build in the territories outside the truce line of 1949 to destroy these settlements in the future?

I believe, that the "natural growth" pretext is ridiculous. When the right wing claims, that "children should have right to live next to their parents", no sane person can believe that they sincere: our country is very small, if parents live in settlements and children live within the green line, it is still very close.

I believe, however, that public construction should go on: there's nothing wrong in building classes in schools or playgrounds or medical facilities, if only they are built in the area which is already built up.

The $2.99 Special
We went to breakfast at a restaurant where the 'seniors' special' was two eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast for $2.99.
'Sounds good,' my wife said. 'But I don't want the eggs.'
'Then, I'll have to charge you three dollars and forty-nine cents because you're ordering a la carte,' the waitress warned her.
'You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the eggs?' my wife asked incredulously.
'YES!!' stated the waitress.
'I'll take the special then,' my wife said.
'How do you want your eggs?' the waitress asked.
'Raw and in the shell,' my wife replied. She took the two eggs home and baked a cake.
DON'T MESS WITH SENIORS!!!
WE'VE been around the block more than once! Then how are we doing in…
FORT RILEY, Kansas (CNN) -- They are lined up neatly, but casually, waiting to be outfitted for another trip to the place they call "The Sand Box." Snug new undershirts to wear under a newer, updated combat protective vest. New desert fatigues, even new battlefield identification cards. Several stops along the way, and then at the end of the line a briefing on how the new vest works -- and how it is different from the one many of these soldiers wore on their last deployment.
Yes, the United States is in the early stages of its plan to withdraw its combat troops from Iraq by the end of August 2010. But rotations still mean more troops are needed, and as Fort Riley prepares to welcome one unit home from Iraq in the days ahead, another is preparing to head out. "I hate to say we get used to it, but we know it is part and parcel, and so we just accept it," Tricia Verschage said in an interview on base this week. "And we meet it as a challenge."

First the photo is both are whites, after the shaking hands Brown is white and Obama turns pale but that ought not to be the case. Why, why we do this when we are the same, same, but different we are the same, same but different. IN UN at least.
Look Mrs. Speaker , Kaddafi, coffee, hee hee and Ahmedinajan, taken that we love all but. enough is enough I says. Buddy we had the cold war, gold, iron war, charcoals war, world war, heated war, global wars now it is time to stop drawing lines on the sand especially now. You know, no you don’t know what I know. You ass, you see, I was telling all there is water on the moon. The moon does not have light. It is the shadow of the earth that illuminates the moon. However, I proved all wrong. There is water and what is more. Here is the proof. Why do the mental react unethically, climatically, clinically, on the full moon? Why do wolves howl badly and why do waves go up down, up down more so on the seas. It is because off all these lines in the sand on the shore of the moon that has all of us shaking our asses. That is what once shaking spear said, “Beware the idols of March. He was right. Iran has the New Year on 21st March very year. You see. Huh. You have no brains and ears and you want to be to be out of the 10 Steetitit on the road. You have to be joking.

ON HAPPINESS: Business owners are the happiest Americans, according to a recent survey. Those working in manufacturing are the least satisfied.
The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index found that business owners scored highest, with 72.5, in "overall well-being" in a poll of more than 100,000 Americans in 11 sectors. Professionals and managers/executives came in at No. 2 (71.5) and No. 3 (70.9).
People making up the three top-scoring occupations are also those with the highest household income, Gallup said. Business owners do make a bit less than professionals and managers/executives, but scored highest on a measure of job satisfaction and work environment.

Brown claims victory after G20 agrees to curb bonuses
PM says global backing for deferred payments will mean no return to 'bad old days'
By Andrew Grice in Pittsburgh
State troopers on patrol near the David L Lawrence Convention Centre, the site of the G20 Pittsburgh summit
The G20 nations agreed that between a half and two-thirds of bonuses would be deferred for three years so they could be clawed back by national regulators such as Britain's Financial Services Authority if the performance of bankers meant they were not justified.

US government bank insurer FDIC announced Friday the latest in a string of US bank failures with the closure of Georgian Bank -- the eighth biggest failure in the United States this year.
The failure brings to 95 the number of US banking institutions that have closed their doors this year, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation said in a statement.
Georgian Bank is the 19th bank to fail in the US state of Georgia alone since January. Not long after President Obama’s speech at the United. Nations yesterday, Robert Costa at The Corner delivered an assessment from a surprise guest, John Bolton, who coined the catchy critical phrase of the day: “A post-American speech by our first post-American president.” (Man, that is catchy.) . . ..
The Anglo-Dutch Unilever is buying a business with 85 percent of its sales in Europe, while Sara Lee will now look to sell its household goods business separately as it launched a $1 billion (624 million pounds) share buyback programme.

Here we have bank failing hugely sums and her we have the ladies buying the cosmetics plenty ICI or Unilever from the tiles to the fertilizers seems to have gone like Avon in UK or L’Oreal in France. .

If you decide your career is not the right career for you, these thoughtful exercises will help you to assess your interest in a new career.

Mr. Brown don’t touch that it still better then what I have Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says she doesn't believe Iran can convince the U.S. and other world powers that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, putting Tehran on course for tougher economic penalties beyond the current "leaky sanctions."
Regulators on Friday shut down Atlanta-based Georgian Bank, the 95th U.S. bank to fail this year as loan defaults rise in the worst financial climate in decades.
In coming months, more banks are expected to buckle under the weight of commercial real estate and other loans that go sour. Those failures could imperil the insurance fund for deposits, already at the lowest point in nearly 20 years.

From the boons of Ford's assembly line and Eisenhower's interstate highway system to the banes of suburban sprawl and oil dependence, U.S. history is closely tied to the automobile. But that doesn't mean Americans are privy to any ride they want.

Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guard said it successfully test-fired short-range missiles Sunday in drills meant to show Tehran is prepared to crush any military threat from another country.
The display of force comes days after the U.S. and its allies warned Iran over a newly revealed nuclear facility it was secretly constructing.
Long-secret security tapes showing the chaos immediately after the 1995 bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building are blank in the minutes before the blast and appear to have been edited, an attorney who obtained the recordings said Sunday.

10 Ways the U.S. Military Has Shoved Christianity Down Muslims' Throats

It's not just private religious organizations that act like Christian crusaders. The evangelizing and proselytizing of Iraqi and Afghan Muslims by private religious organizations and U.S. military personnel also had to be exposed and stopped -- particularly the materials and media available via the Internet and television that could be used by Islamic extremists as propaganda for recruiting purposes.

Clinton told Gore, Branch writes, that he was disappointed that he wasn’t used more in the campaign’s final days and that Gore had not developed any overarching theme. Gore countered that Clinton had never personally apologized to him for the Monica Lewinsky scandal and that he was still traumatized by the 1996 fundraising scandals. Gore also suggested that Clinton was to blame for his defeat by George W. Bush
“I thought he was in Neverland,” Clinton told Branch.

15 Ways to Annoy Your Job Interviewer
By Karen Burns
On Monday September 28, 2009, 2:58 pm EDT
Of course, almost everyone knows you shouldn't light up a cigarette at a job interview, or text your closest friend, or eat, or bring your dog, or show up drunk, or challenge the interviewer to arm wrestle (all things people have actually done at job interviews). You'd never dream of doing any of this, right?
[See what to do when your job interviewer is incompetent.]
But you may be guilty of other less horrible but just as damaging behaviors. While you're trying to wow hiring managers with your knowledge and enthusiasm, you may forget that they're watching you as well as listening to you. In fact, hiring managers actively search for annoying mannerisms in job applicants. They assume that if you are a little annoying at an interview, you will be much more so once you're hired and off your guard.
You fail I see no problem we will look for another one. Don’t give up hope after all to hope is to live
Shorty this one is not for you. is this sad news? Hey wake up
WASHINGTON – Old people get sick more than young people, and in most states that adds up to them paying a lot more for their health insurance premiums.
President Barack Obama and congressional Democrats want to restrict that practice as part of a top-to-bottom reshaping of the nation's health care system, a change that will help them politically with aging Americans skeptical about the government's plans. Urging them to do it is AARP, the powerful senior citizens' lobby, which says making older people pay more amounts to age discrimination.
Jihad will go on until the liberation of Afghanistan and until you run away defeated from our land,” the speaker warned. “The global peace and security will not be achieved unless you withdraw from the lands of the Muslims.”

You see the right way is; you take the scandal wood stick, light that and take the lighter go near the Lord, ask for thank first, then repent , say “Oh Hare Rama, Hare Krishna, Jesus, Holy Spirit, Allah, I am but a sinner and please let not the world of the criticism drown me.”. You asked straight, “I am lost, what do I do?” HE will give you the Noah’s flood but no boat. Now you find your own small piece of wood or take that octopus legs and tell him to take you to land, then we will see how we cane you or can dress you up ready for the debate. First, thank then repent. That is the best way. No one likes orders. Especially the public.

'I Was a Miserable Overweight Person'
Take care of your core. I’m a firm believer that we need to attend to our abdominals as we age. These are the muscles that hold all our vital organs in place; they support good posture and a healthy spine, something we must take care of as we get older. Do a few sit-ups as part of a little stretch/exercise/yoga routine in the morning — it’s never too early or too late to start this ritual.
Acquaint yourself with small to moderate free weights (3-5 lbs.), especially if you’re over 40. A bit of extremely simple resistance training is an antidote to hours spent on gym machines. Short but focused movement with small weights is a good way to preserve upper body tone and bone density and supplement the cardiovascular benefits of an active lifestyle. A little goes a long way, and that only increases the older you get, so don’t let extremism overtake you.
There is no time for your weeping.

NEW YORK - Lee Daniels had so much faith in Mariah Carey's acting that when the director's first choice to play a dowdy, no-nonsense social worker -- Oscar-winner Helen Mirren -- backed out, he quickly asked Carey to step in.
But Daniels was well aware that in hiring Mariah Carey , the actress, he was also likely to get Mariah Carey , the diva -- a high-maintenance sideshow that would include an entourage of makeup artists, assistants, publicists and other hangers-on, running counter to the energy he wanted the superstar to exude in his searing drama "Precious."
So, as he gave her the role, he also issued a warning: Leave the diva act at home.
"If you come with a strip of makeup on," he recalls telling her, "I will have a backup (actress)."
Although the cultural divide between Europe and the U.S. has narrowed over the years, the legal fate of director Roman Polanski shows there are still major differences. Polanski's arrest in Switzerland on Sept. 26 was greeted with satisfaction in the U.S., where authorities hope he will face sentencing for having sex with a 13-year-old girl in 1977. Europeans, meanwhile, are shocked and dismayed that an internationally acclaimed artist could be jailed for such an old offense.

Ben Smith Ben Smith – Wed Sep 30, 3:30 pm ET
When John Edwards returned to North Carolina in the course of his long quest for the presidency, Andrew Young always met him at the airport in Edwards’s big black Chevy Tahoe. Young drove, and Edwards rode shotgun, silently raising his left hand whenever he wanted a Diet Coke, which Young would wordlessly supply.
When Edwards and his family arrived home, Young had made sure there was fresh milk in the fridge, a neatly trimmed lawn and neatly folded dry cleaning. When he arranged their vacation to Disney World in 2004, he naturally booked himself a ticket. And when Edwards’s mistress became pregnant, Young — at the cost of his reputation, his wife’s and his minister father’s — stepped forward to say the child was his.
Young sometimes described himself as Edwards’s “special assistant” and dreamed of serving in an Edwards White House. Other aides, with a combination of disgust — and, perhaps, a bit of envy — referred to him as Edwards’s “personal servant,” or worse, Edwards’s “butt boy.” The relationship was so intense, at least on Young’s side, that it generated friction between him and Elizabeth Edwards. But if Elizabeth and John Edwards sometimes seemed to feel that Young — at 40 no longer an eager kid, with three children of his own — had gotten too close, there was no getting rid of him. He had made himself indispensable.
“John was his idol — his hero — and probably who he considered his best friend and his mentor,” said Tim Toben, a former John Edwards supporter and friend of Young’s who now lives next door to Young on the rural west edge of Chapel Hill. “He thought that he had offered the ultimate sacrifice and was left on the curb.”
I thank you
Firozali A. Mulla

Young has fleetingly emerged from the wreckage of Edwards’s political career as a character from central casting. First he was the fall guy, and now he’s the sellout, peddling his story in a tell-all book. But the real story of Young is about the passions of politics and the classic political triangle of the candidate, his wife and the sometimes sycophantic aide. The consuming devotion that politicians command from a small handful of loyalists is familiar — and not just in presidential campaigns.
“Almost every politician has people like that around him who will do almost anything, sometimes to a fault,” said Gary Pearce, a consultant to Edwards’s 1998 Senate campaign.
Neither Elizabeth nor John Edwards responded to a request relayed through a spokeswoman — for a comment on Young. Young also declined to comment, though he did, through a friend, pass on the names of several allies for a reporter to call. About a dozen former Edwards aides described his relationship with the Edwardses to POLITICO, most on the condition of anonymity to avoid getting dragged into the campaign’s tawdry aftermath.
Young’s friends describe him simply as a “totally devoted” believer who was “taken advantage of,” in the words of one former staffer. Those close to both Young and Edwards describe the staffer’s passion in intensely emotional terms. Starting soon after Edwards was elected to the Senate in 1998, staffers began describing Young as intensely “jealous” of others who were close to the senator.
“He believed that Edwards was the next Kennedy,” said a person who was close to Young. “It’s not enough to say that he idolized the guy — there’s something deeper and weirder than that.”
Elizabeth Edwards, in a thinly veiled portrait of Young in “Resilience,” her book on surviving cancer and her husband’s affair, compared him explicitly with Rielle Hunter, her husband’s former mistress.
“In months of talking with [John Edwards], I have come to understand his liaison with this woman, if I have, not as a substitute for me. It was more like his relationship with a former staff member,” she wrote. She described an “obsessed” and “overbearing” young volunteer who “volunteered for everything, making himself indispensable,” taking care of cars and dry cleaning — an unmistakable portrait, people close to her say, of Young.
She and her husband were, she wrote, his victims — guilty only of “being vulnerable to obsequiousness.”

These comments are not to bore you but make one think why the books are written and what the books say of you, why they sell plenty. When you are living, you are my friend but when you go …Colin Powel, Alan Greenspan, Sarah Palin all Others close to both the couple and Young see it differently, as a relationship that tapped into the worst of both sides: Young’s boundless attraction to power — and the Edwardses’ ease in using him. “What we always said about Andrew was that there would always be a place for him as long as John and Elizabeth didn’t want to get their hands dirty and deal with the painters and yard people and get their own groceries,” said a former Edwards aide who was among several who agitated more than once to have Young fired. “It was not a healthy arrangement,” the former aide said. Elizabeth Edwards complained in her memoir and to staffers that Young had sent his wife, a nurse, to drop off McDonald’s breakfasts outside the Edwardses’ door after her night shift at the hospital.
“As confirmed by Ms. Hunter, Andrew Young is the father of her unborn child,” according to the statement. “Sen. Edwards knew nothing about the relationship between these former co-workers, which began when they worked together in 2006.”
People who knew the senator and the staffer instantly doubted the story. “It was falling on his sword — and that would have been expected by most of Andrew’s friends that he would do so on behalf of John,” said David Badger, a lawyer and friend of Young’s. “Which is why I would suspect most of us figured that the acknowledgement of paternity was not anything that we could rely upon.”
Young later told friends he thought the disgrace would be temporary. “He was glad to do it,” said a friend, Bill Walser, whom Young met during the campaign. “The deal as I understood it later was that after the election results were final, that John would step up and straighten out the issue. That didn’t happen.” “He doesn’t accept Young’s calls, he doesn’t return his messages, and fully for a three-month period — for reasons Andrew never discerned — Edwards won’t be in any contact with him at all,” recalled the person. Edwards endorsed Barack Obama on May 14 and began talking to his former aide again soon after that. But the relationship had grown tense. Young was under the impression that Edwards would, after dropping out, step forward and claim paternity — which he showed no inclination of doing

Did I I say few lines. You have to be joking. The books books books are on you 4
In August 2008, Edwards admitted the affair with Hunter but denied being the father of her child. In recent months, according to former aides, he has come under increasing pressure to acknowledge paternity. Young’s friends say he decided to write a book only after he decided that the Edwards would never set the record straight and after he read Elizabeth Edwards’s description of him as a “pathetic,” grasping male mirror image of Hunter.
“They look at our lives, which from the outside, in particular, are pictures of joy and plenty, and they want it for themselves,” she wrote of Hunter and Young in “Resilience.”
Others close to Young say, however, that the notion of writing a book had less high-minded roots. Baron, whose money had been taking care of the Youngs, died in the fall of 2008, and his wife indicated to them that she wouldn’t be keeping up the payments.
“What compelled them to do the book is the spigot got turned off,” said one person close to the situation.
Young still lives in Chapel Hill, not far from the Edwardses. Having found it impossible to work again in politics, he spends his days playing with his children and working on the manuscript of his book for St. Martin’s Press — the leaked proposal promises lurid revelations of promises made to Hunter by John Edwards and of other Edwards affairs, details that many in Edwards’s circle still doubt. And Young, with all the fury of a spurned lover, may be holding out yet another threat to his old idol, if it comes to that: an explicit videotape, two people who have seen it said, of Edwards and Hunter together.
I love this part David what do you say.. MINGORA, Pakistan – Courts are back in session in Pakistan's Swat Valley after a three-month hiatus because of an army offensive against Taliban militants. How well the judiciary performs may be crucial in ensuring that the insurgents do not return.
The Taliban gained sympathizers in Swat partly by exploiting long-standing grievances with the slow and corrupt judicial system, in which judges allowed proceedings to drag on indefinitely while lawyers milked more fees. AND ALL OF YOU ARE LAWYERS >>>>>

Harsh Hill rhetoric breeds angst in party caucuses
WASHINGTON – House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says anyone using harsh rhetoric to raise fears about health care reform should apologize and get on with writing policy, but said there's no reason to single out a Florida Democrat who said Republicans want sick Americans to "die quickly."
"If anybody's going to apologize, everybody should apologize," she said when asked Thursday about Rep. Alan Grayson's comments on the House floor earlier this week.
Council split complicates Obama's Afghan decision
WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama is confronting a split among his closest advisers on Afghanistan, reflecting divisions in his own party over whether to send in thousands more U.S. troops and complicating his efforts to adopt a war policy he can sell to a public grown weary of the 8-year-old conflict.
The pros and cons of hissy fits
In the course of 24 hours this week, a viral Web video portrayed a Republican congressman calling the president the “enemy of humanity,” a Democratic congressman warned sick people that Republicans “want you to die quickly,” and a New York Times columnist suggested that all the hot talk might lead to acts of violence.
To which the chairman of the Republican National Committee replied: “Nut job.”
We’re in the midst of what Brookings Institution’s Darrell West calls an “arms race of incendiary rhetoric,” and it’s quickly reaching the point of mutually assured destruction.
“The problem with this strategy,” says Princeton professor Julian Zelizer, “is if it is used repeatedly, one person just bumps the other, and people won’t pay attention after a while. Dramatic theatrics work only if they are relatively rare. If everyone was screaming at the president, we [wouldn’t] think of it much.”
Turkey: student protester hurls shoe at IMF chief
ISTANBUL – A student journalist threw a shoe at IMF Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn on Thursday and ran toward the stage shouting "IMF get out!" as the finance official answered questions at a university in Istanbul.
The white sports shoe bounced off another student's head but missed the IMF chief before landing beside him on the speaker's platform. Some students applauded. Strauss-Kahn moved to the side, and a security guard rushed to protect him.

LONDON – U.S. Gen. Stanley McChrystal called on Thursday for a dramatic change in tactics in the faltering war against Taliban insurgents in Afghanistan and said it would be wrong to lower military goals there, despite recent setbacks.
Warning that time is running out as the insurgency gathers strength, he said there is a "huge risk" al-Qaida terrorists will again find safe haven in Afghanistan unless new tactics are put in place in the near future.
McChrystal, commander of both the U.S. and NATO war effort, said conventional military tactics have proven counterproductive and are costing coalition forces support among Afghan civilians who doubt whether the Americans will stay long enough to bring security.
"We don't win by destroying the Taliban," he said. "We don't win by body count. We don't win by the number of successful military raids or attacks, we win when the people decide we win." What a beautiful statement coming from the Rambo type. I loves him mans he is now Mr. Brown, darling tell David.
Ford U.S. September auto sales fall 5 percent
UK get down from the imported cars here comes the Korea and India
DETROIT (Reuters) – Ford Motor Co (F.N) said on Thursday its U.S. auto sales fell 5 percent in September from a year earlier as demand slumped off in part due to the end of the U.S. government's "cash for clunkers" incentive program.
Sales at Ford's core brands Ford, Lincoln and Mercury fell 6 percent.
Ford said U.S. sales for all of its brands fell to 114,655 vehicles in September, from 120,788 vehicles a year earlier, a decline of just over 5 percent.

Mother of wars is mother, I know no more no less, and where is Tony?
Guns and soldiers, Rambo’s and generals, enemies and friends, shoot to kill. Please do not preach or teach on guns pills, contraceptives, killing babies, the kids know more on this then we do. Kids but the wars games and the software corporation are making bang out of them and not us.
Anything in excess is bad. Getting even is worst. It is a vengeance from the Kuwait war and we are the victims. We are not winning any war. We have guns and no bullets. We lack everything as we printed the dollars and the world does not want the printed IOS with nothing but dead and sprites worthless papers. In fact, even the dogs know the differences between the plastic made in China bone and the real bone from the dog.
Whom are we cheating? Ourselves?
No, sir, time to bring them back all in total in peace not in pieces. It is better then late then never. Do we want to repeat Vietnam? Who is paying the price? The poor Latinos, Mexicans building USA once (Indians have gone from the Silicon Valley) having no home, from Katrina, being fed up and wanting to go back home.
We have failed let us face it. Most poor (I am not surprised) Countries want and say, “Capitalism is dead as we march towards globalization.
Nothing surprises me these days with politicians.
Red ahead pleas watch that bump of the dead innocent children and plenty of Chinese now everywhere. Seen the 60th Anniversary. So good . No?

'President' Blair waits on voters of Ireland
WASHINGTON – The story of humankind is reaching back another million years as scientists learn more about "Ardi," a hominid who lived 4.4 million years ago in what is now Ethiopia. The 110-pound, 4-foot female roamed forests a million years before the famous Lucy, long studied as the earliest skeleton of a human ancestor.
This older skeleton reverses the common wisdom of human evolution, said anthropologist C. Owen Lovejoy of Kent State University.
Rather than humans evolving from an ancient chimp-like creature, the new find provides evidence that chimps and humans evolved from some long-ago common ancestor — but each evolved and changed separately along the way.
Come back, again?
Now where is he? I see the gardener was not paid and there it is. No water and one after another fall as Ed balls drops the subjects and Boris draws the new map chopping off the few lines to crates the Tams back. But but but you seem to have a sharper scissors. Is that not bad? See what you have done? It is okay but look bring the head of the left, the runaways’ ones who want to migrate to EU. Then collect your pay and take the next bus to Iran.
