#calgary peace prize

[eretzyisrael]

The Anti-Defamation League has called Mohammed El-Kurd an “unvarnished, vicious antisemite.” Yet in spite of widely available evidence attesting to his prominence as a hatemonger, Mount Royal University in Canada chose to award the writer with the 2023 Calgary Peace Prize.

Now the International Legal Forum (ILF) has sent a letter urging the reversal of this decision.

It said: “His past statements go above and beyond any acceptable criticism of Israel, principles of free speech or the advancement of Palestinian rights. Instead, they represent an unhinged display of bigotry, use of antisemitic tropes and both the incitement and glorification of violence.”

ILF further pointed out how El-Kurd’s statements violated the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism.

Some of the statements El-Kurd has made over the years include calling Zionists “sadistic barbaric neo-Nazi pigs” who have “completely internalized the ways of the Nazis.” He also said that he fantasized about this fate: “I hope every one of them dies in the most torturous & slow ways. I hope that they see their mothers suffering.”

El-Kurd is a Palestinian writer and poet based out of Sheik Jarrah in eastern Jerusalem.

According to the Calgary Peace Prize site, in 2021, He was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by TIME magazine.

First prize was awarded to the Calgary Interfaith Council in Canada, in recognition of its efforts to boost peaceful coexistence against extremism, bias and conflict.

I’d settle on being the Queen of something

Sir BUDDY:  My sidekick and assistant 

In a meandering mood, without any particular destination in mind, online, of course.  Definitely, with some great mood selections from my really cool playlists [ I say myself attesting to the many hours I categorized my iTunes music library in a mood setting and that means both from where I physically am to where I am continually striving for better moods. When one is struggling with depression, it means that they are likely grasping for safety nets of positive inspiration or motivation.  Giving back.  Giving what one knows or has sharing honest advice based on one’s own unique perspective in whatever that may represent:  as a person (wife, mother, friend, daughter, sister, aunt, outlaw or in-law I may be.  

Buddy avoided a younger dog-sibling by the masterful decree by HH that I could NOT adopt a dog

I’ve discovered a new identity emerging from the wisp and whoosh of inspiration that glimmers across one’s screen.  Maybe I’ve been hovering in a lot of different areas, appearing scattered, however, there is still consistency from my original vision/mission statement:  “To help others go from average to REMARKABLE”.  I see that slogan here and there.  Maybe I can do that creatively, who knows. But wandering around, I saw posts and what felt like a flurry of activity from FACEBOOK ~ wow, who’s radar did I get on now?  Or is the merge between KRED and EMPIRE really trying to outdo the other battle of supremacy on leading edge Artificial Intelligence by throwing more and more things across your computer screen, daring you to click on what they’ve carefully selected you to view.

I hope it doesn’t mean that we’re closer to a Brave New World (was that the one I read in Grade 12 English about mind control, big brother?) ~ will have to fact check.  My growing list of fact checking is getting annoying.  I’d rather write than check facts, something that I would spend hours doing when I first began blogging as optioneerJM seven years ago.

I’m amazed at the craftiness of Facebook tempting me with MEMORIES and growing that part of AI which is another way of saying Automated Internet …. what you do, where you click, how often you click is being captured for your entertainment or knowledge value, which ever your behavior predicts that you have a tendency to go to or click on. Regardless, I firmly plan my crown upon my head as the official new dear abby of online.  Why?  It’s fun and it seems to help people and more questions keep coming for me to answer with more people viewing my answers daily.  Although sales was my first forage on to the social media spectrum, social media certainly follow in a natural graduation.  Now I am being invited to try products and be beta first responders/testers.  It’s all very cool.  However, nothing I do online makes any money.  The pathetic truth that it is.

My gauntlet is tossed.  I challenge 2018 to bring me compensation so that I can continue to create:  both painted images or written thought.  Well enough to quit a full time job since it requires around the clock, if not attention, connected.  If I get a little more honest by evaluating my own numbers (I gush at the thought to play around with them) ………… if Dear Abby it is, then voila a Queen of Advice can be born.

I will be re-posting on my other blogs.  The goal is to create images that portray the mood or character of my blog, then create a page that it all blends and compliments each other.  That is a big TO DO/GET’R’DONE for 2018 I don’t know what does?  Suggestions welcome. Nevertheless or irregardless as his highness would say (as crowned from the Hunkster Hubster to His Highness or HH starting in the countdown to 2018.)  The following advice has gotten traction on Quora.

Whatayaknow Is what you know.  You know what you know.  You answer with your best face forward with integrity and honesty to strengthen your resolve:  questions posed by anyone and everyone, then voted by anyone, and the tricksters or smartsters at Quora are putting more answers forward to you answer.  So much so, you can start to distinguish the ones from genuine users with profiles and others suggested by Quora.  Quora is telling me what answers and how I answer some questions is well received, therefore, they are now padding my ANSWERS banner with a sprinkling or mixture of both. Here is an example on the traction and reaction from 23 hours ago:

I am a very lazy guy, but I want to win at least one Nobel Prize. What should I do?

 Karissa Franklin Kinsella and Kashfia Nizum upvoted this

Jeannette Marshall, a mother, a wife, an employee, a manager, an executive, an entrepreneur

Originally Answered: I want a Nobel Prize. What should I do? · Remove Banner

Honestly?

Well I want to be a Queen, princess at the very least. With it the responsibility of always being fashionably dressed, impeccable coif, an assistant, a butler, a maid, a financier, at the very least. People curtsy or bowing upon meeting. I would wear gloves to avoid germs, dirt, disease.

I am financially reliable since I can provide my own tiara, having a selection of a few.

I am humble, I try to help others without any monetary reward. Although, treasuring honesty, admit that I salvitate at the thought of compensation from people reading my gripes, quips, tips, trips posts.

I am truly sorry!

I got sidetracked, totally disregarding the question. I apologize. Oopsie.

Simply?

Go to the Nobel website and determine under which category you feel more aligned with: peace, literature, for examples, then study who have been the most recent recipients that you more closely identify with: can adopt a believable adaptation of anyone of them by providing the skill and talent to stand beside them. Then I’d say:

Go for it!

Who is anyone that could contradict YOU?

YOU are the ONLY person in lives in that house: your brain, body.

Norman Foster

Norman Foster

Norman Foster, Baron Foster of Thames Bank, born 1 June 1935 in Manchester, is a British architect. Emulator of Buckminster Fuller, Foster is one of the leading representatives of high-tech architecture with among others Richard Rogers.

Norman Foster left school at the age of 16 to enter the workforce and then perform his military service in the Royal Air Force. He studied architecture and urban planning at the University of Manchester while working to finance his studies until he graduated in 1961. 

He received a scholarship to travel to USA where he obtained a master's degree in architecture at Yale University the following year. Foster made friends with Richard Rogers and enjoyed his visit to North America to visit the works of architect Frank Lloyd Wright. 

In 1963, he founded Team 4, along with Rogers and their respective wives, Wendy Cheesman Foster and Su Rogers. The Reliance factory project in Swindon allows them to lay the foundation for the so-called "High-tech" architecture, which will eventually be the hallmark of Foster and Rogers.

1967 marks the separation of Team 4, Rogers then works with Renzo Piano , while Foster and his wife Foster together with Foster Associates, renamed Foster + Partners. He drafted the plans for the firm in London in 1972 and then for a second in 1981. From 1968 Foster assisted visionary architect Richard Buckminster Fuller in his theoretical work, including the Autonomous House project.

In 2010, Foster and Partners has more than 500 employees and employees in London, Berlin and Hong Kong, and deals with dozens of important projects per year. The firm also carries out signed furniture and interior design and decoration projects. In 2007, he participated with Philippe Starck in the projects of Virgin Galactic, the Virgin Group company of Richard Branson specialized in sub-orbital flights.

 In September 2007, his agency unveiled plans for the world's first tourist spaceport. In general, Norman Foster oversees projects and guides his teams, but given his age and the size of the company, he can no longer personally invest in the details of each building.

Norman Foster is world renowned and has won over 300 awards and awards worldwide, and more than 60 national and international competition victories. For example, he was awarded the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Gold Medal in 1983, the French Academy of Architecture Gold Medal in 1991 and the Institute's Gold Medal Of American architects in 1994.

 Finally, in 1999, the Pritzker Prize, awarded to the greatest designers, was awarded. Norman Foster is a member of the Royal College of Art, the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), the Architecture Foundation of London, and vice-president of the Architectural Association of London.

In 1990, he was made a knight, then decorated with the Order of Merit in 1997, and finally created peer of the United Kingdom, with the title of baron Foster of Thames Bank, of Reddish in the County of Greater Manchester in 1999.

In 1994, he was elected a member of the Berlin Academy of Arts.

In 2013, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his Museum of Contemporary Art, the Carré d'Art in Nîmes, Norman Foster accepted for the first time ever to be curator of an exhibition devoted to contemporary art. The architect has selected almost a hundred works that will be exhibited as of May 2, 2013 in the famous glass building Nîmois, which he had designed 20 years ago.

Norman Foster designed a large number of skyscrapers, and in 2014 he was the only architect to win two Emporis Skyscraper Awards for the most outstanding skyscraper of the year for 30 St Mary Ax in London and Hearst Tower in New York.
