Mossa'ei Shabbath Qodesh Parshath Mishpatim 5768Last week, "Radiosh" was granted the tender of the recently created (read: "legalized") local broadcasts for Yehudah and Shomron (Judea & Samaria). The name is a contraction of "radio" and "yosh," which itself is an abbreviation for Yehudah weShomron. Finally, we are seeing the "A" (Azza) removed from YeSh"A. Although I am not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing.Interestingly enough Radiosh was the only candidate.As you would imagine, much of Left is up in arms.Gush Shalom spokesman Adam Keller said that Radiosh violated the specifically non-political character of state-licensed commercial radio."This station will broadcast messages in favor of settlement, and that's a radical departure from the state policy for regional radio stations. If licenses are being given by the state to the extreme Right for the creation of political radio stations, then the Left should get a license, too." (JPost)Um,...Hello?! The Left should get
By Katherine Baldwin LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's spy centre that eavesdrops on communications lacks resources and cannot cope with the growth in counter-terrorism operations in recent years, a parliamentary report concluded on Tuesday. The shortcomings mean the Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), the country's intelligence monitoring hub, cannot adequately support the security services in the fight against terrorism, the report said. Britain's police and security services disrupted an alleged plot to bring down airliners in the mid-Atlantic in 2006 and a plan to abduct a British Muslim soldier early last year, but the report by the influential Intelligence and Security Committee said the wealth of spying demand was taking its toll. "The substantial growth in the number of security service counter-terrorism operations in recent years has made it difficult for GCHQ to maintain high-quality support to an ever-growing number of investigations," the committee s

Three police officers were also injured in the raid that targeted three separate houses belonging to the radical Islamic group, it said. One suspected militant was also arrested. Police found a large number of weapons and documents, linking the suspects to the Islamic radical group, the website said. There was no immediate official confirmation.

BERLIN (Reuters) - A German man forgot his car after filling it up at a petrol station, police said Friday. "He just forgot about it and walked off home," said a spokesman for police in the western city of Wuppertal. After the car had sat blocking the pump for about an hour, a woman working at the petrol station became suspicious and alerted authorities. Officers contacted the 63-year-old from Remscheid, who came straight back to fetch the vehicle. He had paid to fill up the car before walking off.

Another bunch of fiddling with the line-up at Capital Radio, as the new management reverse the big idea of nine months ago, letting Bam Bam and his "hilarious wind-ups" go again.New MD Paul Jackson insists that there's nothing wrong with the programme as such:"Bam Bam's best position historically is breakfast, and for him to do his thing best he needs a breakfast slot. He has done nothing wrong, but we have Johnny Vaughan in breakfast," Jackson added.Actually, we'd say one of the few things Bam Bam had going for him was not being Johnny Vaughan. It's interesting that the new management didn't try to do something to address the problem of breakfasts dragging down figures for the entire station, but perhaps Vaughan's contract would make it expensive to try something genuinely new. Instead, Jackson is reduced to shuffling a somewhat limited portfolio about to no great effect:"In a straight choice between Lucio's lifestyle show and Bam Bam, who's got a great act but it's more chatty and br

The forces ordered Mogadishu-based Simba Radio off the air and arrested its chief Abdullahi Ali Farak and a journalist, according to a reporter who works there. The radio on Wednesday evening interviewed Sheikh Mukhtar Robow, a radical Islamist leader, who said he was behind a suicide attack earlier in the day on an Ethiopian army base near a hotel where Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi was staying.Sheikh Mukhtar -- also known as Abu Mansur after training in Afghanistan and fought alongside the Taliban in the early 2000s -- presented himself in the interview as a spokesman for the Somali Islamist movement in Mogadishu, but he has commanded numerous other militia fighters over the past decade.Last month, Somali security forces besieged and opened fire at Shabelle radio, destroying equipment and forcing it to close for 15 days after they accused one of Shabelle reporters of hurling a grenade at a police patrol.

It's very amorphous structure-wise, with lots of texturally-oriented interludes, and only a few moments where the band's full forces flex their muscle in collective improvisation or uplifting rhythmic or melodic riff. It is totally unlike their previous (and still fairly recent) North Country Suite, a gorgeously melodic work written by Pierre Van Dormael (who, in the liner notes, thanked Bob Dylan, naturally, but also Nicole Kidman, inexplicably), that could be seen as a sequel to the latter's masterful Vivaces from 2001.A year after the upcoming album was recorded, things have changed substantially, and generally for the better.

Description it is comedy set at a local TV station with featuring the arguable reunion two news anchor team. Actors in the show are Kelsey Grammer, Patricia Heaton, Fred Willard, Ty Burrell, and Josh GadPremiere of this show on fox last night I watched it. Out all the new show happening this season, this was the one I was looking forward to the most to watch. Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton are so funny together I think they are a good pairing in the show they seem to have so much chemistry together. I really laughed I look forward to seeing more episodes of the show I will for sure watch again. I think this show could be a hit I hope they give this show a chance to gain viewers with not canceling too quickly as they do now with shows they don’t even give them a chance to gain a following. - Shop Kelsey Grammer - Shop Patricia Heaton - Get DIRECTV

A mysterious blonde paid a visit to a petrol station shop in the small eastern German town
of Doemitz on Sunday -wearing nothing but a pair of golden stilettos and a thin gold bracelet.
The tall, slender woman strolled into the shop in the town of Doemitz on the warm afternoon and bought cigarettes, petrol station employee Ines Swoboda told Reuters on Monday.
"I wasn't surprised because she's come in naked before -- she's a very nice woman," Swoboda said, adding none of the other customers were bothered. The woman could have faced charges of creating a public disturbance if anyone had complained.
A quick-witted customer did, however, snap pictures of the woman believed to be about 30 years old as she walked back to a waiting Ferrari and climbed into the passenger seat. Several of those photos appeared in the German media on Monday.
Man Asks Officer Wearing Badge for MethFriday, August 17, 2007 8:41 PM EDTThe Associated PressEUGENE, Ore. (AP) — A man hoping to score some meth asked the wrong person for the drug. The Eugene police vice narcotics unit had searched an apartment on Monday night and were questioning the tenant when a man came by and asked to buy drugs, Sgt. Jerry Webber said.As detectives stood around with their badges hanging from their necks and latex gloves on their hands, the man asked the tenant, "Can you hook me up?" Webber said.The tenant was seated on the couch with handcuffs around his wrists. A detective was writing him a citation.The tenant said, "I don't think I can help you," Webber recalled, but the visitor persisted. He then allegedly turned to a detective and asked him for meth.The detective told the visitor, James Wilkinson, 34, of Eugene, he was under arrest for attempted possession of methamphetamine.Wilkinson tried to run, but officers grabbed him, Webber said.They found a small a
