The storm is to start building on Saturday morning, with local rain anticipated from the north of the country to the northern Negev, even as temperatures drop. Thunderstorms are predicted, and there are flood warnings in the Judean Desert and Dead Sea region, with a possibility of snow on Mount Hermon, Israel's only ski site. Then on Sunday things will take a turn for the worse, as gale-force winds of 60 kilometers per hour (37 mph) with bursts of 90 kilometers per hour (56 mph) beat down on Israel, and the sea will roil in waves up to eight meters (26 feet) in height.

Quoting: Earth Cries [link to www.allenbwest.com] Snip: First, it was the Marines. Now as reported by Fox News, “The U.S. Navy is looking for a few good names without “men” in them. As part of the move to integrate women in all roles of the military, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus has announced plans to make titles and descriptions gender neutral. That puts the time-honored name “Midshipman” squarely on the radar. Good Morning EC, Oh for the love of Pete....this PC crap is just that CRAP!!!! When I was Active Duty 24 years ago in the Air Force in the very beginning is was AirMAN Basic/E1....everyone was, both male and female...I never once hear anybody complain about it being something offensive...and then some wonder why America has been futzing around 'combating' a bunch of goat herding cave dwellers in Afghanistan for nearly 15 years accomplishing nothing. So infuriating!!! Exactly... Try being one of the very few first Females in the Coast Guard. There were only 3 Females in my Mike Company. You were just happy that you were able to make the Cut..the hell with what it was called. Back in 1978... The Coast Guard was just starting to expand it's Female enlistment. If you made the grade, you were one of the Few. A Seamen was a Seamen.. end of story. working with Positive Thoughts will result in Positive Outcomes. |

Outlining the fast-developing relationship between Israel and other Sunni states in the region, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and Turkey, the official went beyond earlier comments by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and expressed Israel’s dismay at U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East. “We have the chance now to make a coalition with Saudi Arabia, North African states, the Gulf States, and Turkey,” Ayoob Kara, Israel’s deputy minister for regional cooperation, told FoxNews.com. “We need the U.S. with us, but … they first want the Palestinians to become partners with Israel.

For the first time, the Russian president was officially implicated in a murder that seemed plucked from the pages of a Cold War spy novel but actually played out in the bar of a posh hotel in 21st-century London.
