Controversial Book on Israeli-Muslim Struggle Sparks Praise from Supporters, Threats from Opposition

Before it was even in print, Samson Blinded: A Machiavellian Perspective on the Middle East Conflict was striking a nerve among followers of the Israeli-Muslim struggle. The e-book, available via the Internet, was accessed by tens of thousands of readers from 72 c 5a8 ountries, garnering praise from supporters of author, Obadiah Shoher’s hard-hitting advice and outrage from peace advocates.

Shoher pulls no punches in the book as he eschews the conventional moralizing and ideological hubris to view the Israeli-Muslim struggle in terms of raw realpolitik. Shoher makes the case that only by shedding liberal idealism can the West win against Islamists. Espousing political rationalism, he argues for efficacy and the separation of politics from morality. Victory, Shoher conveys, demands that Israel respect terrorists as efficient warriors and fight fire with fire, an eye for an eye – a theme that has sparked a fire storm of threatening letters aimed squarely at Shoher from both Jews and anti-Semites.

The technique currently sweeping the market has gained proven competitor advantage and with the utlilization of existing technology in a clever and unique way, takes only minutes to perform.

Invention Support Announces a Great New Invention Known as the "Freezer Alarm"

Invention Support has signed a strategic alliance with Paul Kuhn, the inventor of the new device known as the "Freezer Alarm", to offer support for this great new invention and to proudly introduce it into the general kitchen accessories market.

Oftentimes, people keep a secondary freezer in their basement or garage to store large quantities of meat. These freezers can malfunction such that the owner may not know that the freezer has stopped working. Hundreds of dollars worth of meat will often be lost due to a simple circumstance that could have been avoided. With the Freezer Alarm, this situation would never have to happen again.

PROSALES Celebrates its 20th Anniversary with the PS20: The Twenty Most Significant People, Technologies, Products and Events since 1989

PROSALES magazine, celebrating its 20th anniversary as America's leading news service for pro-oriented building material dealers and distributors, announced today its PS20: The Twenty Most Significant People, Technologies, Products and Events that have done the most to shape the construction supply business since 1989.

"The list reveals the sea change this industry has gone through," said Craig Webb, PROSALES' editor. "When we started, the prevailing wisdom was that consumer-oriented home centers were the way to get ahead. Our focus made us, as PROSALES' first editor put it, 'a cult publication.' But time has shown that the traditional lumberyards and building supply companies that focused on selling to the professional are the ones that have prospered. The PS20 celebrates those people and the times they've experienced."
