1904rif. 42841New York : Bloch Publ. Co 1904. Hardcover. 2nd English Edition 1st was 1876 Singerman 2550. Original printed gray wrappers 8vo xiv 1 16-53 pages. 23 cm. English translation of the Jewish Response to the First Anti-Shechitah Campaign in America giving an explanation of the necessity for Jews to maintain the laws of ritual slaughter. Aaron Zebi Friedman 1822-76 served as shochet or ritual slaughterer in his native Poland before immigrating to New York in 1848 where he found employment in one of the city's largest kosher slaughterhouses. In 1866 the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals launched the first anti-Shehitah campaign in America. The president of the Society Henry Bergh dispatched a letter to the proprietor of a kosher abattoir in New York accusing him of engaging in "barbarous revolting and wicked" practices-the letter is reproduced in full in this work. Bergh further called on him to desist from violating the laws of New York and of God by "mangling and torturing his creatures." Interestingly among the members listed in the letterhead of Bergh's letter were August Belmont the Rothschilds' representative in America and Charles P. Daly a chief justice of New York. In 1875 Aaron Zebi Friedman renowned for his piety composed a sharp rejoinder entitled Tub Taam to refute Bergh's accusations. He not only succeeded in silencing Bergh but even in convincing him: In 1885 Bergh defended shechitah against charges of cruelty leveled by the Philadelphia branch of his Society. Goldman 1092; JE Vol. V p. 518. Among those who supported the Jewish position on Shechitah in the struggle against the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was President Ulysses S. Grant. According to Joakim Isaacs Grant "was moved by this English translation.to eat only ritually slaughtered meat in the latter part of his life" See J. Isaacs "Candidate Grant and the Jews" American Jewish Archives 17. 1 1965 p. 15 n. 31; I. H. Sharfman The First Rabbi 1988 pp. 591-92. Apropos of the current culture wars animal rights organizations and activists within and outside of the Jewish world continue to criticize kosher slaughtering practices on the grounds of animal cruelty.

2016rif. 83759New York City : The Donald J. Trump for President Campaign 2016. Presumed one of a limited number of original media request tickets. Laminated card/ticket. As new. Approximately 7.375 inches by 4.25 inches. Printed on only one side. The right side has a bar code and number at the top. Below is a picture of Donald J. Trump and Mike Pence together. Below that are two images one is of the original Trump Pence logo and the other is one of both Trump and Pence standing behind the original logo. As Donald Trump announced his new running mate Indiana Gov. Mike Pence his campaign unveiled a new logo that immediately became the object of ridicule on social media and inspired oh-so-many sexually suggestive responses. The new Trump-Pence logo enmeshes the candidates' initials — TP — with the American flag sparking immediate references to toilet paper and other bathroom wit. As the day continued T The designers might have anticipated this before releasing into the wild a logo with one letter penetrating another. "I can see this being sold to them as a visual representation of two people working hand-in-hand" said Ethan Imboden vice president of creative at Frog Design. "My guess is that was the intention to represent them more in the form of a monogram bringing together a T and P as a partnership." Trump's campaign unveiled a modified version of its Trump-Pence logo after the original graphic drew a lot of unintended attention. During Trump's official introduction of Indiana Gov. Mike Pence as his running mate the campaign adorned a fundraising email with a simple "TRUMP" atop a "PENCE". Trump campaign spokesman Jason Miller told CNN "We have a number of logos. The final one won't be unveiled until the convention." Over at the New York Hilton Midtown 1335 Ave of the Americas only a few blocks from his Trump Tower the Donald J. Trump Victory Party opened its doors at 6:30 p.m. Trump and running mate Mike Pence are hosting an invite-only gathering for friends and supporters of the campaign a divergence to the GOP candidate's usually large rallies. Trump admitted on Fox & Friends Tuesday morning that he is "a little superstitious" something a Washington Post source cited as the reason behind the low-key event. Make America Great Again hats and pins encased in glass cases bookended the stage inside the Hilton ballroom which was decorated with country and state flags. The loudest and most sustained cheer of the night erupts when the event's cable network of choice Fox News announced Ohio for Trump. Random "USA! USA" cheers erupt intermittently. The crowd keeps cheering "President Trump!" as NYPD counterterrorism bureau cops increase their presence. MAGA hats are being handed out. from suitcases. It became a long night for both campaigns.

1917rif. 184984London: His Majesty's Stationery Office 1917. Simla censured First edition. This report into the disastrous advance on Baghdad and the Siege of Kut heavily criticized Simla and the "confident optimism" of General Sir John Nixon p. 111. Its findings overhauled the prosecution of the Mesopotamian Campaign which became the purview of the War Office and experienced Western Front generals such as Stanley Maude. Parliamentary approval for an investigation into the Mesopotamia fiasco was granted by the Special Commissions Dardanelles and Mesopotamia Act of 1916 and Lord George Hamilton a former Secretary of State for India and First Lord of the Admiralty chaired the wide-ranging enquiry. The commission met over 60 times interviewed dozens of witnesses and trawled documentary evidence and witness statements. The final verdict laid the blame principally on Nixon and the inadequacies of the Government of India and the Indian Army: "In consequence of such want of touch the Military Authorities at Simla did not appreciate the difficulties of campaigning in Mesopotamia and from such lack of knowledge failed to make sufficient provision for surmounting the difficulties and drawbacks" p. 111.

rif. 145940Good. A red white and blue tricolour approximately 630 × 1110 mm in three panels sewn with a cedar of Lebanon painted in green and brown on the white central stripe. Material a little tanned and faded with a few tiny holes; a striking piece in good condition overall. Allied forces spearheaded by two brigades of the Australian 7th Division took Beirut from the Vichy French on 12 July 1941 and Syria and Lebanon were placed under British control two days later at the Armistice of Saint Jean d'Acre on terms that sidelined the Free French. De Gaulle insisted on concessions and secured ongoing Free French administration of Lebanon under General Georges Catroux. Newspaper reports give the date of the entry of de Gaulle and Catroux into Beirut as 26 July although a United States State Department cable dated 25 July gives it as 'noon today' 740.0011 European War 1939/13488. The Australian War Memorial holds newsreel footage of the event F01119 dated 'c July 1941' showing their motorcade processing past throngs of excited Australian and allied troops. The relatively crudely-painted cedar of Lebanon on this flag suggests that it was created from a plain French tricolour. It has been signed by 21 soldiers most with their service numbers with the signatures and inscriptions embroidered-over by hand in red and blue thread. It is inscribed near the top edge 'De Gaulle Victory March' and two of the signatures are dated 24 July 1941 suggesting that the flag was prepared in the days prior to the event. Most of the service numbers are South Australian and several of the signatories were members of the 9th Division Cavalry Regiment at that time attached to the 21st Brigade. Amongst them is the future Liberal Senator for South Australia Keith Alexander Laught 1907-1969. In addition to being an interesting artefact of Australian military forces in the Levant this flag also stands at a turning point in the history of Lebanon. Catroux would proclaim Lebanese independence on 26 November 1941 while maintaining French administrative control; a Lebanese government unilaterally declared full independence in November 1943 abolishing this flag; and the French Mandate finally concluded in 1946. unknown
