| Ayoon Wa Azan (Anti-Semitic Jihad)
The warmongers led the campaign for war against Iraq; the role of Paul Wolfowitz and Douglas Feith in the Pentagon's Office of Special Plans cannot be overemphasized. The war might not have been possible without the alternative, and absolutely fabricated, intelligence provided by the pro-Israeli cabal. A million Iraqis and over 4000 American and allied troops would have been alive today had it not been for the big lie. Even after Iraq was shown to have no nuclear programme or a relationship with Al Qaeda, even after the death and destruction of the country, Senator Joe Lieberman and extremists of his ilk continue to support the war. Why not? Only Arabs and Muslim are being killed, along with a few Americans sacrificed by so-called Americans on the altar of Israeli security. The warmongers are now agitating for war against Iran which can never threaten the U.S., a fact as solid as saying that the sun rises from the East.

The laconic Garciaparra remains the most popular Dodger, even in his decline. The shy Hamm remains the darling of global women's soccer, even in retirement. -8. Jamie McCourt, Dodgers vice-chairman and president. Anyone else not sure hubby Frank makes a decision without Jamie signing off? From his cuff links to his free agents?

Police offer hints on how to avoid falling victim to auto thefts
Now that the cold weather is upon us, there might be that temptation for you to get up in the morning, start your car and allow it to warm up while you wait in the comfort of your home. Think twice about this practice, since auto thieves often search for signs of exhaust smoke coming from unattended vehicles and strike quickly.Last year, a total of 581 vehicles were stolen in our city. And despite making a significant number of arrests for auto theft and recovering many of these vehicles, it continues to be a problem in Lodi as well as other cities. So far this year, 537 vehicles have been stolen in the city of Lodi.Of the 537 vehicles stolen this year, most were taken between the hours of 5 a.m. and 9 a.m.. The one hour time period between 7 a.m. and 8 a.m. accounted for 106 (or 20 percent) of the 537 stolen vehicles.

The Rise, Fall, Rise, and Imminent Fall of DDT
Dusting stations were set up around the city, and in January 1944, two delousing stations dusted 1,300,000 civilians. Within three weeks of the dusting (along with other less important treatment and vaccination programs), the epidemic was under control. The number of civilian cases was halved in the first week alone. The Allies administered more than three million applications of DDT powder in Naples. For his achievements, Mueller was awarded the Nobel Prize for physiology and medicine in 1948. Presenting the prize to Mueller, the Nobel Committee remarked that "for the first time in history a typhus outbreak was brought under control in winter. DDT had passed its ordeal by fire with flying colours." The committee went on to note that "DDT has been used in large quantities in the evacuation of concentration camps, of prisoners and deportees.
It's All About the Sauce
In March, the former Nick Tahou's in Gates officially changed hands. The new owners are still selling their famous dish and now marketing their trademark sauce. They're also sending out some free samples to someone who's already given so much. It's a dish made famous here in Rochester, and at the top of what many customers still call the “Garbage Plate" is a recipe that runs in the Tahou family. "Our customers tell us our hot sauce is the best they ever had," said Steve T. Hots & Potatoes Owner Steve Tahou. “They love our hot sauce," Tahou added. Tahou and his sister Joanne Tahou-Demkou have been serving their hot sauce since 1979. Loyal customers like Tom and Patty Mitchell love it, but not as much as their son does. "That was one of things he missed when he went to Iraq is that he couldn't get garbage plates," said Patty Mitchell of Caledonia.
27/11/'07 − US National Housing Index & Consumer Confidence On Tap
The lack of economic data gave little directional bias to start the week's currency trading, but a busy US calendar certainly promises a pickup in volatility in the week ahead. Trading in coming days could well be driven by the housing data upon which the whole USD argument rests at the moment. If housing continues to deteriorate, it will put relentless pressure on the Fed to cut rates in December, as the EUR/USD is expected to hit the 1.500 barrier. As for today, traders are expecting the National Home Price Index to be released at 14:00 GMT. The forecast for the index is a slight decrease from -4.4% to -5.0%. Later today, the US Consumer Confidence data due to be released and is also expected to show relatively weak figures. EUR Worries about the U.S. economy and expectations for repeated Federal Reserve rate cuts are still preventing the U.S.
Shot fired at Pacers' Tinsley
Pacers guard Jamaal Tinsley will meet Monday with team President Larry Bird and coach Jim O'Brien following an early-Sunday incident in which the player was shot at. It was Tinsley's third late-night episode in 14 months and the latest in a three-year string of incidents that have engulfed the team.
Tinsley and several companions were targeted in the shooting that wounded one person outside a downtown Indianapolis hotel. Tinsley wasn't injured. He didn't practice Sunday.
"This is something we can't just put right behind us and walk away from," Bird told Pacers.com. "We have to make a change."
