The Nazareth Cross project aims to strengthen all of the people of Nazareth. It also will dramatically improve the atmosphere for its citizens, tourists, and visiting pilgrims. But at the core of this effort are the people of the city. This is why over half of the project’s income will be invested back into to the Nazareth community.

Warning: this video could bring you to tears or even traumatize - but this IS Human history. It is so fortunate the portable video technology has just been invented. This footage will be referenced by hundreds of future generations.
Wonder if anyone in this footage is still alive today. Most would in their 80s or 90s?

Caesarea National Park - Pictures And Review
30 / 1
http://www.israel-on-blog.com/caesarea-national-park/
Caesarea area has had a long and checkered history. It was initially settled during the Hellenistic period (third century B.C.E.), when the Phoenicians built a small port city that they named Straton’s Tower. In 90 B.C.E., Alexander Jannaeus captured Straton’s Tower as part of his policy of developing the shipbuilding industry and enlarging the Hasmonean kingdom. Straton’s Tower remained a Jewish city for two generations, until the Roman conquest of 63 B.C.E. when the Romans declared Straton’s Tower an autonomous city.

Hey readers from India, as per newspaper reports banking transactions are likely to be affected in the period 26th March to 31st March(5 days) due to 3 days strike of bank employees and two days general holidays. Even ATM operations could get halted as cash filling after heavy withdrawals may not be feasible since private banks rely on SBI /RBI etc for bulk cash dealing support. This is to suggest to all that you draw your cash needs before 25th with the assumption that cash can not be drawn in

Sudha Murthy :: Life history unveiled :: How her life changed dramatically

http://www.jaspari.info/2007/05/sudha-murthy-life-history-un...
It was probably the April of 1974. Bangalore was getting warm and gulmohars were blooming at the IISc campus. I was the only girl in my post graduate department and was staying at the ladies' hostel. Other girls were pursuing research in different departments of Science.
I was looking forward to going abroad to complete a doctorate in computer science. I had been offered scholarships from Universities in the US. I had not thought of taking up a job in India.

Algeria, China teamed on nuke
29 / 3
http://washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/200709...
One of those "why am I hearing this for the first time?" stories. Apparently the Algerians are already light years ahead of Iran, Libya, Syria (way ahead of Syria, after Israel's recent foray), and other "rogue-ish" nations. And almost all of this is thanks to China. The nuclear genie is way out of the bag; we're not trying to CON-tain it anymore, but rather RE-tain it from getting into some of the above mentioned sensitive countries.
And another thing: Thank goodness the first Bush administration isn't around anymore (though I may still wish for them if other certain groups get elected). The length to which they went to appease China is astounding. By my count of the top of my head, we have now sacrificed Sudanese Christians, the Algerian Nuclear program, a P3 Spy plane, and nuclear weapon technology, to avoid offending the Chinese. For what exactly? Bad dog food?
