Palestinian sentenced to death for selling land to a Jew
Filed Under Government, intolerance, Jewish, Ohio, Pepper Pike, Politics, real estate, Religion | 3 Comments
This commentary by Jonathan Tobin seems to indicate that there are restrictive covenants, and then, there are restrictive covenants (for example, read this law review article on the legacy of restrictive covenants in NE Ohio).
I’m at a loss for words, and have been for nearly two weeks now, as I mull over a personal experience with anti-Semitism, so I’ll end this post with an excerpt from Tobin’s piece:
The Jerusalem Post’s Khalid Abu Toameh reports:
The three-judge panel found the defendant guilty of violating PA laws that bar Palestinians from selling property to ‘the enemy.’ In its ruling, the court, which convened in Hebron, said that Brigith had acted in violation of a Palestinian ‘military law’ dating back to 1979, which states that it is forbidden for a Palestinian to sell land to Jews. The accused was also found guilty of violating a law dating back to 1958 that calls for a boycott against Israel, as well as another law from 1953 that bans trade with Israelis. The judges issued the verdict unanimously and pointed out that the defendant did not have the right to appeal. The death sentence, however, must be approved by PA President Mahmoud Abbas.
Mind you, this is not the act of the extremist Islamists of Hamas. This comes from a court whose officers and judges are all affiliated with the Fatah-dominated Palestinian Authority — the supposedly moderate peace-partner to whom most of the world is pressuring Israel to make concessions. But even to these “moderates,” a real-estate transaction with a Jew is a capital offense because it is an article of Palestinian faith that every inch of their country must be rendered Judenrein in order for their national destiny to be fulfilled.
Stunned speechless, I was and I am.

[updated] Local news: Vote FOR Pepper Pike Fire Levy
Filed Under Pepper Pike, Taxes | Leave a Comment
I attended a state of the city kind of event on Tuesday evening at which Mayor Bruce Akers spent a few minutes talking about and addressing questions regarding Issue 9, which will be on the ballot for Pepper Pike voters this coming Tuesday, May 5 (please don’t forget to vote!).
I will be voting for Issue 9, which is a replacement fire levy, as opposed to a renewal.
My only concern derives my desire to be sure that the fire department gets everything it needs and so I’ve wondered (and gotten some answers from the council members) about whether 2009 home values will in fact be higher than they were in 2004, which is what the current fire levy is based on (and is what a renewal, rather than a replacement, would keep it pegged to).
I’ve been assured that although 2005 was the high point for home values around here, it is very unlikely that 2009 values will give rise to a decline in overall revenue from the levy (I’ve confirmed that there would be a shortfall in what the levy raises if the 2009 values are lower, but I’m told that that scenario is extremely unlikely). Obviously the only way we’ll know for sure is after the revenues are collected, but again, I’ve been told that the home values have been looked at and so there’s little concern that the 2009 values will in fact be below the 2004, and therefore, little concern that the replacement will not bring in at least as much as the renewal, if not, hopefully, a little more.
You can read about the levy in this editorial from the Sun papers today. A letter came to residents from the Mayor about the levy but I don’t see it yet on the city website – I’ll check on that and update with a link if there is one. and you can read that letter from the Mayor, City Council and the MERC team here (you’ll have to open a pdf).
And, again, please do get out and vote!

Matriarchal government: NH’s legislature defines “Change”
Filed Under democracy, Elections, Gender, Government, leadership, Media, Ohio, Politics, Results, Sexism, Statehouse, Voting, Women | 2 Comments
I’ve written before about New Hampshire’s state legislature: the House and Senate are both led by women and the Senate is majority female. When I’ve written about these details, I’ve also written that while it’s something to cheer, we need to keep track of how exactly it might make a difference in governance and life in New Hampshire – and whether voters ultimately decide that they’re happy with their composite choices.
Today, the Boston Globe published an editorial, “The Matriarchy Up North,” that does exactly that.
The first point examined is the passage of numerous progressive bills by the House, Senate or both to: raise the state’s gasoline tax by 15 cents over three years; allow the use of medical marijuana; repeal the state’s capital punishment statute and legalize same-sex marriage. Additionally, NH had been the only state not providing free public kindergarten. Now? It “…offers grants and other incentives to its local school districts to provide kindergarten classes, and only a tiny handful are still resisting.” Perhaps most blasphemous, when you consider the NH license plate slogan, “Live Free or Die,” the state legislature has taken up debate of a mandatory seat-belt law.
Part one of the analysis:
What could be causing this unprecedented turn in Granite State politics? Here’s one idea: women.
Since January, the New Hampshire Senate has been making history as the first majority female legislative body in the country: Thirteen of its 24 members are women. Overall, the New Hampshire Legislature is 37.7 percent female, just a fraction behind Vermont (37.8 percent) and Colorado (38 percent). But New Hampshire also has women in leadership: a woman House speaker, a woman Senate president, and a woman majority whip. The congressional delegation is 50 percent female, including one of only 17 women in the US Senate. It’s as if there was a bloodless coup of the state’s political establishment in November, and women were the avatars of change. [emphasis added]
Part two of the analysis confronts the trivializing of this female leadership because the job pays next to nothing, a topic I explored last November and which instigated a lot of debate:
Cynics suggest that it is precisely because New Hampshire’s Legislature is part time and virtually unpaid – members earn $100 a session, plus commuting expenses – that women are allowed to compete for legislative seats that aren’t as prized as they are in, say, Massachusetts. It’s just volunteerism, like rolling bandages. Why not let the women have it?
But the meat we need to consider is next, as the op-ed answers the question, so – what difference has been made by these increases in female representation:
For one thing, women who run are more likely to be Democrats; just two of the 13 women senators are Republicans. In that sense, at least, a distaff-dominated legislature is likely to be more progressive.
Numerous studies of the gender gap have found that women tend to be more liberal – in the word’s sense of “generous” – especially when it comes to funding programs for children, the environment, and healthcare. Men are more libertarian, tending to be skeptical of government solutions and protective of individual rights.
More to the point, the tone and perspective are different with women in charge.
“I do think gender has affected the way we discuss issues,” says Exeter Democrat Margaret Hassan, the Senate’s president pro tem. “Women tend to see problems in a much less segmented fashion, and that has allowed us to connect the dots in different ways.”
This is the more interesting question about women in power. Sure, women should be heard more in government – and the law, and science, and journalism – as a matter of sheer equity. But it’s not the quantity of women so much as the different quality that can bring real change.
Women see the world as a web of relationships. They are more communitarian and less individualistic. They are less ideological and more practical. It’s hard to imagine a better set of qualities for solving the intricate problems that face our world.
Emphasis all added by me.
And the conclusion?
What’s the matter with New Hampshire? Nothing. They’ve just seen the future up there.
I will note that this editorial was written by an editorial page editor (and Senior VP at the Globe) who is a woman, Renée Loth, because she is someone who would be very familiar with just how few women editorial page editors there are, and thus appreciate that of which she speaks, or writes as the case may be, regarding leadership issues, changes and impact. Many thanks to her for following this story.
And jeers to the many obnoxious comments at the editorial online.
Of course, I can’t help thinking about how the Ohio GOP couldn’t must more than one female state senator out of a total of 21 Republican state senators. Ugh, I hate that statistic.
Hattip to Ali Savino.

Fair Pay Day, Arlen Specter & Kathleen Sebelius
Filed Under Barack Obama, Congress, Democrats, employment, Gender, Government, leadership, Politics, Republicans, Sexism, Social Issues, Women | 5 Comments
If you want to get a fantastic education about what Fair Pay Day is all about, please go here to see the myriad posts on the subject (today was Fair Pay Day).
And if you’re looking for some great debate, I hate to set Nick up, but he asked for it (/sarcasm). Dear readers, go at this one – I’m too tired at the moment. Bottom line: you want to say it’s due to women’s choices, Nick? Let’s have a little chat about how it is that those things you call “choices” are formed and constrained by society. This is a huge ball of wax. The real bottom line is that women don’t get paid the same as men for the same work, all things being equal. The choice stuff is irrelevant to business practice. You do realize that this is in part why more men are losing jobs than women in this economy, yes?
Now about Arlen Specter (who, by the way, was the only Republican male senator to cross the aisle to vote for the Lilly Ledbetter Act – come on Nick! /sarcasm): totally makes sense to me. Seriously. And in my opinion, the Democrats who get so angry from inside the Beltway at reps and senators based outside the Beltway because they think those Dems aren’t progressive enough, so they’re trying to field even more progressive Dems? Be prepared for pushback. It’s just a formula for failure. Ohio’s blogs have been down this road before. There has got to be some respect for the local voters knowing what they want. Debate, suggest, persuade in terms of who one Dem might fit better in a bigger picture, fine. But tell us who is best for us because that person is best for Obama or best for a particular branch of the Dems? Nuh uh.
Last, check out what the National Jewish Democratic Council has to say about Specter, who is Jewish:
The National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC) welcomes Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter to the Democratic Party.
The Democratic Party of 2009 is an inclusive party that believes political parties should be big tents. In contrast, the Republican Party of 2009 is a party which believes in circling the wagons into an ever smaller and smaller circle until only the ideologically pure are welcome. Senator Specter has been a Republican since 1966 but he has never been a conservative ideologue. It has become increasingly clear in recent years that he is not ideologically pure enough for the Republican activists of today.
The Republican Party’s continued shift to the right has had negative implications for GOP support in the Jewish community. Despite the fact that in every election cycle conservative Jewish activists claim that Jews are becoming more Republican, the Jewish vote for Republicans at the national level is stuck at about 20%. Moreover, over the last decade there are fewer and fewer Republican Jewish office holders at the national level.
With Specter joining the Democratic Party, he becomes the 12th member of the Senate that is Jewish and caucuses with the Democrats. When Al Franken, another Jewish Democrat, gets seated as the second Minnesota senator, there will be 13 Jewish senators who caucus with the Democrats in the Senate (compared to zero who caucus with the GOP). Democrats will then have 60 seats in the Senate, reducing the possibility of Republican filibusters.
Frankly, Specter’s switch only shows just how big tent the Democratic party is. I honestly cannot imagine what the GOP can do or will do to regain stature, respect and strength. I admire sticking to one’s principles, no matter how out of touch they might be. But the abject failure to figure out how they apply in the here and now, for people who are living day to day is absolutely destroying the GOP.
And on the confirmation, finally, of Health and Human Services chief Kathleen Sebelius, 65-31, let’s just say, yes.

Rokakis, Howard Hanna to address Pepper Pike property values, the economy
Filed Under Economy, Government, OH17, OH24th, Ohio, Pepper Pike, Politics, real estate, Taxes, treasurer | Leave a Comment
Tomorrow night, there will be a meeting that is like a State of the City kind of gathering, but with a presentation about a few important issues for the city. The Civic League produces a brochure/booklet that includes the key pieces of information any new resident would want to know and they include that info on their website. One of my neighbors, whom I know through the swim club in our neighborhood, is the head of the league, and a former neighbor was on it and one of my longest Cleveland area friends was the head of it years ago when I first met her – and she was so young then, well, we all were.
Anyway – for those who read the Plain Dealer this weekend, you can understand why this meeting may be particularly packed – Jim Rokakis will be talking about property values, along with Howard Hanna and the city’s finance director, Prashant Shah. I’m looking forward to it.

Join me tonight in lead up to Equal Pay Day, 4/28/09
Filed Under Blogging, Economy, Gender, Government, Politics, Sexism, Social Issues, Women | Leave a Comment
The details, plus resources, are here.
Highlights:
The May issue of Redbook magazine has a great story entitled “Are Women Really Worth Less than Men? Our Government Says No, Our Paychecks Say Yes.” The article talks about the gender wage disparity that will cost women anywhere from $400,000 to $2 million over a lifetime in lost wages. It also features quotes from Lisa Maatz, AAUW’s top public policy adviser, whose areas of expertise include gender equity in education, Title IX, retirement security, pay equity, and other civil rights issues related to women and girls.
This Sunday beginning at 10 p.m., you can ask Lisa questions about the wage gap. She’ll join the Fem2.0 Twittercast on pay equity, along with experts from the National Women’s Law Center. The Sunday night chat will be hosted by Liza Sabater, a.k.a. blogdiva of Culture Kitchen, and Jill Miller Zimon of Writes Like She Talks.
To join in on the conversation, go to tweetchat.com, log in, and enter the fem2 room.
You can learn more about Equal Pay Day here.
Come on now – I know this topic gets people hot under the white and pink and blue collars. Please join Liza, NWLC, AAUW and me tonight at 10pm DST to debate it.

TODAY ONLY: Pepper Pike residents (& others) learn how to deer-proof gardens w/hands-on expert
Filed Under Education, Government, Ohio, Pepper Pike, Research | 1 Comment
Mayor Akers, City Council, residents and those who drive on Pepper Pike streets, have had to contend and will continue to contend with the deer population for the foreseeable future. This issue can be a real tug of war over a variety of aspects such as who are the natives, who are the aliens (as in species), danger to humans (in cars, on foot etc.), property damage, do we cull, don’t we cull, how do we cull, who has more rights, do animals have any rights, insurance companies – on and on and on.
After listening to one resident in particular, Marcia Unger, the mayor and council have brought in and paid for an expert, Sandy Baker (see more here about her in this 1992!! article about her work from the New York Times) to give a day-long seminar, including on-site advising, for how to deer-proof your garden! Now, this is something that I have always wanted to figure out and if it wasn’t for the fact that today is a milestone event in a family member’s life, I’d be at one of the two sessions being offered. I might still try to make it to the one at the library at 2pm. This is especially a great thing for newer residents who may not even really realize just what an issue this can be.
I’d also like to note how convenient it is that there will be two sessions, for example – I know folks in synagogue this morning won’t be able to attend the morning session, but likewise, Landerwood residents are busy cleaning up the pool and tennis courts etc. for the opening at the end of May.
Read the flyer here or go with these vitals:
10-11:30am Daisy Hill Nursery, Hunting Valley, 34050 Hackney Road, Off SOM Center Rd (between Shaker and S. Woodland)
and
2-3:30pm Orange Library, 31300 Chagrin Blvd.
Many thanks to the Mayor, council, Marcia Unger, Lyndhurst, Moreland Hills, Orange and Solon for their support and participation.

CT’s GOP Gov. Rell becomes first to legislate same-sex marriage as legal
Filed Under Civil Rights, conservatives, Gender, Government, Law, LGBT, marriage, Politics, Republicans, Social Issues, Statehouse | 2 Comments
Connecticut Governor, M. Jodi Rell, a Republican who numerous times over the last several stated that she does not support same-sex marriage, has signed into law a bill passed by both houses of the Connecticut legislature that legalizes same-sex marriage. She is the first governor, let alone a Republican one, to legislate same-sex marriage.
I learned about this from the Ohio blog, Conservative Culture, after seeing a lug from it on BlogNetNews/Ohio. Here’s the comment I left there, which appears to still be under moderation (I know how that can be when you’re out and living life so no concerns, just wanted to post it anyway):
Not sure if you’re aware of Rell’s history and status and reputation in Connecticut so I hope you don’t mind if I add a few – I grew up there, lived there, still go back there and talk politics about it w/people there:
1. She’d been on the record saying she would veto such a bill and was against same-sex marriage since at least 2005:
http://www.religioustolerance.org/hommarrct1.htm
2. She is a Republican, succeeding Republican John Rowland who is now was released from federal prison in early 2006 (after serving just over 11 months for “depriving the public of honest service”), and then won on her own in 2006. Her approval ratings have pretty much always been very high.
3. As for 2010, she’s up for re-election that November and several folks have said they’re going after her (from the Dem side at least).
4. So why did she switch? A local CT paper says it was signed w/out comment – I can’t find anything that says more but I would expect there to be more about her decision eventually:
http://www.connpost.com/ci_12210238
That same article also says that she now has the distinction of being the first governor – let alone the first Republican governor – to sign same-sex marriage legislation.
Drawing in air – I really don’t know what it means but it feels like it must mean something! lol
PS Here’s one other story I found while trying to find something that gives more rationale for Rell’s signature – this article mentions how the law would have been the same with or without her signature since it the law only enshrines a CT Sup Crt decision.
I’ve written it before and I’m sure I’ll write it again sometime – Connecticut is a funky state.
I’m linking to a blogging colleague in Connecticut, Aldon Hynes of Orient Lodge, who also happens to live down the street from where I grew up, and see if he might swing by to give some inside scoop on how this result came about. My mom also drops in once in a while and maybe she’ll offer some wise words as well.
Notice that the front page of the gov’s site doesn’t provide a link to a news item about how this bill was signed into law, just this.

[full text] Obama remarks on Holocaust Remembrance Day
Filed Under Barack Obama, intolerance, Jewish, Judaism, Religion | 1 Comment
An excerpt:
Today and every day, we have an opportunity as well as an obligation to confront these scourges, to fight the impulse to turn the channel when we see images that disturb us or wrap ourselves in the false comfort that others’ sufferings are not our own. Instead, we have the opportunity to make a habit of empathy, to recognize ourselves in each other, to commit ourselves to resisting injustice and intolerance and indifference, in whatever forms they may take, whether confronting those who tell lies about history, or doing everything we can to prevent and end atrocities like those that took place in Rwanda, those taking place in Darfur.
That is my commitment as president. I hope that is yours as well.
