ISRAEL’S MEDICAL ACHIEVEMENTS

Israeli hospital saves electrocuted student. Romanian Jewish student David Fintzi struck an electric cable as he leaned out of a train window. 27,000-volts set him on fire and he was close to death in a Bucharest hospital. The Jewish Agency flew him to Jerusalem’s Hadassah hospital where a medical miracle has taken place.

Keep taking the tablets. Israel’s MediSafe has just raised $1million to expand its medication management solutions. MediSafe’s smartphone app keeps track of medication taken and sends alerts to relatives or monitoring organizations if any treatment is missed.

http://www.nationalreview.com/node/361051/print We can fund al-Qaeda but we can’t fund the families of our war dead? Here is where we’re at: The Republican establishment — the guys who told us that for a trillion dollars and several thousand American casualties, we could build “Islamic democracies” that would be reliable U.S. allies in the War on Terror […]

http://bit.ly/166LQOu In 1948, US-Israel relations were a classic case of a one-way-street: the US gave and Israel received, economically and militarily. In 1952, the US Administration rejected a proposal by General Omar Bradley, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs-of-Staff, to elevate Israel to a role of a major ally, just like Iran and Turkey.  In […]

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ The Obama myth is that he is a reasonable man being blocked by unreasonable Republicans at every turn. There are plenty of things wrong with that myth, but the biggest one is that Obama isn’t being handicapped by Republican obstructionism. He seeks out and cultivates Republican opposition. The ideas of the left don’t just […]

The opening night of concerts at Carnegie Hall was shut down and canceled due to a strike by the union of stage hands.

I was curious about that because I have tickets for some upcoming concerts…so I read a little more about it.
Never mind the issues for the strike….It has been settled.

I was struck dumb by the following information—-

I wonder what colleges they went to….or if some of them are former doctors….

http://pjmedia.com/blog/living-in-the-age-of-contradiction/?print=1 My first philosophy professor at the university, when it could still be plausibly described as a place of learning, was a deceptively brilliant man. Professor Henderson was prone to delivering a string of resonant tautologies as if permitting us a glimpse into the most solemn and abyssal mysteries of metaphysical speculation. I recall in […]

http://www.americanthinker.com/2013/10/dangerous_times_obama_bows_to_the_mullahs.html It looks like the fix is in. The mullahs will certainly get their nukes and ICBMs, and neither Israel nor the Saudis (who are scared to death of the mullahs) will rely on American protection as long as Obama is in office. Obama just put out the welcome mat for Mullah Rouhani, the killer […]

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/361057/park-service-paramilitaries-mark-steyn f a government shuts down in the forest and nobody hears it, that’s the sound of liberty dying. The so-called shutdown is, as noted last week, mostly baloney: Eighty-three percent of the supposedly defunded government is carrying on as usual, impervious to whatever restraints the people’s representatives might wish to impose, and the 800,000 […]
