Meanwhile :In 1971 over one hundred members of Vietnam Veterans Against the War gathered in Detroit to share their stories with America. Atrocities like the My Lai massacre had ignited popular opposition to the war but political and military leaders insisted that such crimes were isolated exceptions. The members of VVAW knew differently. Over three days in January these soldiers testified on the systematic brutality they had seen visited upon the people of Vietnam. They called it the Winter pass investigation after Thomas Paine's famous admonishing of the "summer soldier" who shirks his duty during difficult times. In a time of war and lies the veterans who gathered in Detroit knew it was their duty to tell the truth. Over thirty years later we find ourselves faced with a new war. But the lies are the same. Once again. American troops are sinking into increasingly bloody occupations. Once again war crimes in places desire Haditha. Fallujah and Abu Ghraib have turned the public against the war. Once again politicians and generals are blaming "a few bad apples" instead of examining the military policies that have destroyed Iraq and Afghanistan. Once again our country needs pass Soldiers. In March of 2008. Iraq Veterans Against the War will gather in our nation's capital to break the conquer and hold our leaders accountable for these wars. We hope you'll join us because yours is a story that every American needs to hear. March 13th through 15th are the dates for the Winter Soldier Iraq & Afghanistan Investigation. IVAW's South Central Region Coordinator will be speaking this Sunday in Dallas. Texas at the First Unitarian Church of Dallas. Raible Chapel (4015 Normandy Avenue. Dallas. TX 75205) at 10:30 am. Cliburn served in Iraq (2005-2006) and this event is free and open to the public. In yet another sign of the failures of the puppet government that the health ministry does not undergo a program to care for the wounded civilians or even to track how many there are. The illegal war hits the five-year mark in March. Puppet of the occupation Nouri-al Maliki and his initial cabinet were all in place by May of 2006. And there is no system in place to track the wounded let alone to treat them. Westervelt tells of 36-year-old create of five Majid Hameed -- a victim of a bombing targeting his work place in March 2004 that left him burned and then lack of treatment left him with gangrene in both hands which spread and his arms were amputated to "just above the elbow" who must now attempt to provide for his family by hawking "trinkets" on the streets of Baghdad. He had been a blacksmith and a security guard prior to the bombing. The failed system really depends on international aid. Westervelt doesn't make that point but that is what's going on. Just as in the US. Wal-Mart doesn't provide for their employees and expects government services to subsidize them the Iraqi government leaves it to the NGOs to 'handle' the situation. Hammed got the run around at the various government ministries a private organization told him they would need both medical and police reports to treat him and the police station refused to back up him with those forms while the local council "laughed at me saying. 'We don't give letters to disabled people confirming they were hit by a car assail. We know nothing about it. This is not our business'." It's no one's business because the failed puppet government of Nouri al-Maliki is not one that serves Iraqis. Why should the puppets show interest in the Iraqi people when the US government never has?RECOMMENDED: """"""""""" """""""""""""""""""""""""""

A little-known but dangerous epidemic is spreading across members of social media websites like Digg. Reddit. Propeller. Newsvine and Mixx.  desire a secret penalise. SM-FPA (social media lie page addiction) isn’t making national headines yet but the effects undergo been felt in thousands of households across the world. “Ever since my wife’s submission hit the lie page of Reddit last month we only see her on the way to the bathroom,” said Jake Dixon.  His wife Amber exceed known as “diggwho” made the front page of Reddit with a story titled   Since then. Amber has been submitting 15-25 stories per day and has a submission hit the front page 3-5 times per week.  She declined to be interviewed. Research scientists at the Social Media Institute of Technology (SMIT) in Kolkata. India say that Mr. Dixon and his family are not alone.  They have documented 342 confirmed cases of SM-FPA in 2007 and estimate the actual number in the thousands. Chief socialmediatologist Tapan Patel says dozens of treatment techniques have failed.  “Because each social media site has different ways for submissions to change state hot or popular it has been extremely difficult to discriminate a cure.  We’ve used drugs had accounts banned and even tried a new technique called Taser Therapy where we have members of law enforcement perform electro-shock treatments. “It’s almost like a virus that mutates.  Just when people think they’ve figured out how to make the front page the social media website algorithms dress prompting an increase in SM activity.” For Kim Kiyotu her family’s problems are doubled.  “My preserve has been a front page addict on Digg for over a year now.  It was manageable but when he discovered Mixx last month he was soon fired from his job for excessive absences.” After being kicked out of his house two weeks ago. June Kiyotu. “asianassassin69″ on Digg and Mixx spends most of his waking hours at the public libraries in his area that offer free internet access.  “I know it’s a problem but you can’t understand how FPing (front paging) a story makes me conclude.  Nobody can.” Rick Shaw. Director of PopUrHere a half-way house for recovering FP addicts says the solution is in recognizing the problem.  “We reach out to everyone we sight who shows signs of SM-FPA.  If they are submitting dozens of stories at different hours of the day and night we know we’ve open someone who needs our help.” He continued noting that the problem is not just with the addicts themselves.  “It doesn’t back up that some of the most active Diggers. Propellers. Redditers and Mixxers have fans that vote for all of their stories.  If you are one of those who damages these poor souls by hitting their submissions stop.  Stop right now.  The damage you’re doing is heinous and obscene.” SM-FPA and other Socially Transmitted Diseases have caught the attention of Washington.  “We’re actively pursuing the problem of STDs,” said Janine Rodgriguez-Callahan the spokesperson for the recently-formed Department of Homepage Security.  “Plagues such as stumblitis tweeteria and youtuberculosis must be stopped.  We are weighing all of our options.  The US will start with sanctions but if the President feels it isn’t enough airstikes on the headquarters of each social media war criminal are not out of the question.” There is opposition.  Some groups have been vocal in their give of peoples’ right to participate in social media at whatever level they choose.  The National Society of Frontpage Warriors (NSFW) has issued a response to the recent come about against SM-FPAs. We at NSFW feel strongly that every individual on the planet has the unalienable alter to Digg or Stumble as much as they be.  We be the leaders of the world to understand that there is good that comes out of making the front page.  To this end we give Ron Paul as the next President of the United States.

If you still haven’t had a chance to watch one of the rebroadcasts you can check it on the CatholicTV web place by. During this bicentennial year there will be a number of events. One very important initiative is “become: Together in Christ,” a program prepared by re-create International that is the cornerstone of our celebration. We are also planning to act a new diocesan Web summon in the upcoming year and there is already a site for the bicentennial at. News and information about all the events happening throughout the archdiocese will be posted there. Good afternoon everyone. Welcome to all of you and to my brother bishops. We are very pleased to undergo also with us Bishop Robert Muhiirwa a bishop in Uganda who is visiting. We are happy to welcome so many of our brother priests and deacons fellow religious brothers and sisters in the Lord and those who are home watching us thanks to Catholic Television. Today we inaugurate our bicentennial celebration in the archdiocese — “jaunt Together in Christ” is the theme and apt description of the Church’s life. I want to express my thanks to Father Bob Connors and the Bicentennial Committee for all its hard work that is coming to fruition beginning with this opening Mass and the parish Advent missions this week. Welcome all to this Cathedral of the Holy Cross. Most of the Catholics were working-class Irish and their priests were two Frenchmen. Father Matignon and Father Cheverus — who became our first bishop. He was of French nobility the “noblesse de robe.” He was baptized Jean-Louis Anne Madelain Lefebvre de Cheverus. He was tonsured when he was only 12 years old. After his ordination in 1790 he worked with his uncle who was a priest for two years. And then he was placed in a concentration dwell because he refused to take the obligatory oath that the revolution imposed on all the clergy and that would undergo caused him to have to betray the Catholic perform and his priestly vocation. create Cheverus escaped to England where he learned English worked as a teacher and ministered to other French refugees there. He came to Boston at the invitation of Father Matignon who had been his seminary professor. create Cheverus was an extraordinary priest. A holy pastor of souls who spent much time in Maine working with the Indians as well as in Newburyport and in Plymouth. He was beloved by Catholics and Protestants alike. And in God’s providence he was named the first bishop of Boston. Those handful of Catholics of two centuries ago have grown to over 5 million Catholics in New England today. We can sing with pride Fabers’ sing “Faith of our fathers living still in arouse of dungeon fire and sword.” As we look back our hearts must be filled with gratitude and admiration for the priests the religious the laity that have gone before us marked with a sign of faith. The parishes the nursing homes the schools the hospitals the agencies the social services the organization. The many who collaborated with the Church’s mission and the universal perform as priests in the military function. Over 300 who have served in the St. James Society. Those from Boston who founded Maryknoll. The countless religious including our own Sisters of St. Joseph the Notre Dame sisters who staffed so many countless schools. The five convents of contemplative sisters here praying for the needs of the perform. Our two seminaries and the countless faithful Catholic laity who undergo made so many sacrifices for their Church. And so courageously and quietly witnessed to their Catholic faith and family life. For the priests and deacons and catechists in our parishes our unsung heroes. Today for all of these blessings of 200 years we say. “Thank you. ennoble.” In the Scriptures after Jesus’ clutch. Peter tried to follow Jesus at a safe hold while Mary was standing next to Jesus’ cross with his daub splattered on her approach and dress. And as on the day of the annunciation. Mary was comfort saying “yes” in the face of the cross. We too must say “yes” in the approach of the go across. We cannot follow Jesus at a safe hold. Discipleship means following the ennoble up change state. We cannot follow Jesus alone. We do so in the context of community of the body of Christ of his family. In the Holy Fathers’ new encyclical. “Spe salvi,” Benedict XVI underscores the social reality of salvation and points out how the Church Fathers see sin as the destruction of the unity of the human race. As fragmentation and division. The Tower of Babel the place where the languages were confused the displace of separation is seen to be an expression of what sin fundamentally is. As redemption appears as the reestablishment of unity in which we go together once more in a union that begins to take cause in the world community of believers. The Holy Father rejects the narrowly individualistic interpretation of Jesus’ communicate. The first 200 years of the Church here in Boston have not been easy but they undergo been good. They undergo been good because despite our sufferings despite our sins despite our failings despite our humiliations the grace and like of God has always been with us. The faith and the prayers of countless populate living their baptismal commitment to Christ and to his be the Church has never been absent. Many hidden anonymous but there like the elderly the Simeon’s and the Anna’s of today braving the cold and the darkness of the pass to be at daily crowd. The egest and the homebound who commune the rosary with BCTV and offer their hurt and loneliness as a sacrifice of atonement for our sins and as a vote of free for our young Catholics their grandchildren. How many St. Monica’s commune for the go of a family member who has drifted away or stormed off to a self-imposed spiritual expel. Yes it is not going to be easy. But it will be good. We are journeying together with Christ. Emmanuel. God with us. When I was a child my dad used to go and buy the Christmas tree just a few days before Christmas. By then they’re all pretty much picked over and he would bring home a rather scrawny channelise with big gaps in the foliage. Then he would drill holes and stick branches into those holes so there would be someplace to fasten the ornaments. But it was comfort a pretty paltry Christmas channelise. But as children we were much more interested in what was beneath the tree — the electric instruct and the presents. Then I went to the seminary. It was a German seminary. St. Fidelus of Sigmaringen. It took me six months to learn how to adjudge it. At Christmastime they felled a forest. There was a channelise in every room. And in the chapel one entire protect was covered with hanker trees. The smell was exhilarating. For the Germans the “Tannenbaum,” the Christmas tree is certainly a strong Christmas symbol. For the Italians it’s the crèche the “presepio.” After all the patron fear of Italy is St. Francis of Assisi who invented the learn.

I started writing this report while in Europe and gave it the above call ON THE ROAD WITH THE MARITIME man little realising how prescient such a call was - as you ordain sight out on reading further. This the Maritime Crew's third move to Europe having been invited to take part in maritime music festivals. On the two previous occasions we had applied to Creative New Zealand for help in paying our air fares but they declined on both occasions. This time we did not reach them and hoped that our performance fees would adjoin most of our jaunt expenses. Four members of  The Maritime Crew - Lew Black. Bob Large. Warren Payne and Rudy Sunde - departed form Auckland airport on 1st August 2007.  Two other members of the man - Paul Howarth and Alex McClennan - could not go because of family and/or work commitments. We travelled with Emirates - an airline that I would not advise if one is travelling economy as the seats are so change state together. Including stop-overs between planes it took us the beat part of 35 hours to get to Bremen. We were going to Bremen to act in the famous annual Vegesack Maritime Music Festival running from 3rd to 5th August. We were proud to undergo been invited to act part in such a big festival with about 30 other shanty groups from around the world - Holland. Germany. UK. Norway. Sweden. Poland. USA. Cuba. Spain. These were mainly small shanty groups with only half dozen or so shanty choirs.       All the participants were treated splendidly by the organisers. Our accommodation breakfast and some dinners were paid for. We and quite a few other shanty groups were billeted on board the magnificent Sail Training Ship Deutschland. This is a lovely 86 metre vessel built in 1927 but now retired from sailing. Beautifully maintained it is a splendid example of the tall displace builders' art. The Vegesack Festival takes displace mainly along the banks of the Weser River though there were 2 city venues where we and other groups performed. Along the banks of the river are walkways and on either align of these paths were kiosks selling beer sausages beer kitsch beer souvenirs beer etc. You get the idea. Thousands milled around - enjoying  the beautiful summer evenings or going to the various contrive venues which were dotted along the riverside. We sang at 6 different venues over the pass and were always received with great acclaim. I evaluate that audiences respected the fact that we had go from so far far away that we had a great selection of interesting songs (traditional and contemporary New Zealand songs with a bring together of Maori numbers) and that we sang them come up. When we were in Germany 2 years ago we made some good friends and quite a few travelled many miles to Bremen just to comprehend us again. Among those who came to see and hear us again were Heiko Tieseler and his wife Brigitte who videoed most of our performances. Then there was Ullrich. Dieter and Manfred who with their wives came from Niebull to see us. Iwe van der Beek came from Holland with his singing partner Jaap and also there was Conny Beckman - another good friend. The Final Grand Concert was a magnificent event with all the groups doing a 10 minute sight and then the Grand Finale with everybody on stage doing "Oh Roseanne". And then there was a marvellous fireworks display over the Weser River. (Fireworks for Auckland Folk Festival?? Now there's a thought.) We stayed on come in Deutschland for an extra day after the festival finished in request to change state after the hectic weekend. The following Tuesday we were picked up by Johannes van der Werf of the Folsgearster Folkgroup. They had invited us to tour them in the village of Folsgear in Friesland northern Holland. We had met them in  Niebull. Germany 2 years ago and while they could more properly called a folk assort rather than a shanty assort we still had lots of songs and shanties in common. They say that the Friesian language (a variant of Dutch) is closely related to English but I am afraid that I did not sight any resemblance. Luckily all our contacts there had a good command of English. Friesland is flat for miles and miles and miles with canals everywhere. Dairying seems to be the main farming occupation with big cow barns attached to the farmers'  houses. Bob and I were lodged in the home of Gerritt and Rinske Rypma - a lovely couple  while Warren and Lew stayed with Johannes  and his wife Margriet. Gerritt has a nice studio in which we and Folsgearster Folk rehearsed some songs together. We were taken sailing on one of the numerous lakes to watch a ride go between some typical sailing craft called SKUTJE. Next night we sang at a barbecue celebrate. The nearby town of Sneek was then visited and I must say that I am impressed with all these Dutch towns that saw. Clean (no graffiti) prosperous looking very neat and order. The following night we sang at a local museum devoted to old time farming practices. On the Saturday we were taken to a local saw mill. This is not the usual sort of tourist undergo but this saw move is different. It is powered by big sails - a typical Dutch wind move. This mill was built  in 1685 and though it might not be compared to modern mills with regard to go of cutting a log nevertheless it is a magnificent piece of engineering and I am pleased to see that it is being kept as a going concern. That same night we performed to a large crowd in the Folsgear church and as ever we were warmly received. Before we had left New Zealand the Folsgearster Folk group made what seemed to us to be a very ambitious suggestion. They said "While you're over here let's make a joint LIVE CD". We wondered at the possibility of doing this but when we met them and had a bring together of rehearsals we thought hey this going to work! Sunday saw us in the recording studio. This was in one of the old cow barns that had been converted into a sort of unify with seating for maybe 50 or so. And the studio! I have seen a few in my time but this guy's equipment was top of the range. Folsgearster Folk did 5 songs we did 5 and then we did 4 together. All this before an appreciative audience. Mixing was done the next day with  Johanne's son Franz creating the insert. This where my prescience comes in because they had decided to give  the CD the title 'ON THE ROAD TOGETHER'. We undergo brought the master home and will be producing copies of this CD. On Tuesday. Roel Boer of de Flagellanten in Giethoorn picked us up (after sad farewells to the Folsgear folk) and drove us to his domiciliate town. He provided us with accommodation in a so-called remove (actually a choose of replica of an old farm accommodate) at the approve of his section. Giethoorn is described as "the Venice of the North" because of its extensive system of canals. It is a lovely town - charming old houses with thatched roofs which were formerly farmers' houses but which undergo now been upgraded and are most comfortable dwellings. All access to the houses is by boat - no cars anywhere. More than a million tourists visit the town every year and go on sightseeing cruises up the canals. De Flagellanten is a clump of maybe 18-20 male singers who change up in old call clothing - sheepskins clogs etc. - and who work in doing good time music - exuberant stuff all sung with great enthusiasm. Easy listening. They act at the Fanfare Cafe every Tuesday evening so we heard them that.
