Likud MK Miri Regev, who came under fire last week after calling African migrants "a cancer" in Israeli society, apologized for the first time for her comments on Sunday, opting, however, to leave the migrants out of her apology.

Regev's controversial comments came during a violent rally staged by residents of Tel Aviv's south ? where many African migrants live ? to protest rising crime rates in the area. In the rally, the Likud MK said "the Sudanese are a cancer in our body."

She was later criticized for inflaming the protesters, with angry demonstrators later going on to attack African passers-by and journalists, breaking into and looting shops associated with the African migrant community and shattering car windshields.

At the time, Regev condemned "any violence from any side, but I understand the rage and hurt of the residents, of the families that live there. They tell us: 'Help us. We are being humiliated, look how we live, we are afraid to leave the house.'"

However, speaking to Israeli media outlets over the weekend and on Sunday, Regev chose to apologize for calling the Sudanese a cancer, opting however, to direct her apology to Holocaust survivors and cancer patients.

"When I compared the migrant worker phenomenon to cancer I was referring to the way the phenomenon had spread, and not anything else. If anyone took it otherwise and was consequently offended, I apologize and I surely did not intend to hurt either Holocaust survivors or cancer patients," she said.

Regev told Maariv that she was very "attuned to the issue of the Holocaust. The memory of the Holocaust is seared deeply into my heart back from my time in high school when I prepared a paper on the subject."

"Up until a year ago I did not set foot in Germany, and made it a point not to purchase German-made products," the Likud MK and former army spokesperson said, adding: "When I was with an IDF delegation in Auschwitz I didn't stop crying, and so if someone attributed a wrong interpretation of my comments or was offended by them, I apologize."

Regev added that "she didn't talk about people as being cancer but of an infiltration phenomenon that was spreading."

The Likud MK also added that she was sensitive to the feelings of cancer patients, adding that she was herself involved with the care given to a boy with cancer, telling the website of Israeli daily Maariv that she understands the emotions involved with ta mention of the disease.

"When [former Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin] said the settlers were a cancer, no one made any fuss. When [Peace Now head] Yariv Oppenheimer speaks of the settlements as caner, everyone is silent. When I talk about the phenomenon, I get attacked just became I'm a leader from the right-wing," Regev added.

Last week, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised that his government would address the issue of African migrants in Israel, one day after a protest against them by residents of south Tel Aviv turned violent.

"The infiltrator problem must be solved, and we will solve it," Netanyahu said on Thursday afternoon, speaking at an event in Tel Aviv.

He also refered to the construction of a fence on the Egypt-Israel border, saying, "We will complete construction of the fence within two months, and soon we will begin sending infiltrators back to their countries of origin."

The prime minister also condemned the actions of demonstrators and Knesset members on Wednesday, when demonstrators attacked African migrants in South Tel Aviv.

"I want to make it clear that there is no place for the statements and actions that we witnessed yesterday. I say these things to the public figures and to the residents of south Tel Aviv, whose pain I understand," he said.

After your initial time investment, you can increase or decrease the time you spend on Facebook according to the same basic self-control mechanisms you use for anything.

Facebook doesn?t have to be a black hole?it?s relevant as a leadership tool because it increases your visibility.

First, decide how personal your personal page will be: snapshots of family outings? Your favorite leadership quotes? Second, do a little reading on social media. Third, bring in professionals when creating a Facebook page for your organization.

What not to do: Don?t post goofy, negative or risky stuff. Word gets around.

Here?s some important tips from the Massachusetts The Official Website of the Executive Office of Public Safety and Security on Selecting a Contractor.

Recommendations for the Building Owner When Selecting a Contractor to Perform Work on an Existing Home or to Construct a New Home

Before you enter into any written agreement to construct a new home or to remodel or build an addition onto an existing home

Ensure that the Contractor is appropriately licensed and is a Licensed Construction Supervisor and/or a Registered Home Improvement Contractor.

Ensure that the contractor has adequate liability insurance and workers compensation insurance.

Ask the contractor for a written list of his/her three most recent projects with names, telephone numbers and addresses of the owners.

Call the owners and ask questions as to the performance of the contractor.

Check with your local better business bureau, the Board of Building Regulations and Standards and the Office of the Attorney General to find out whether the contractor has any complaints filed against the contractor or whether or not any disciplinary action has been taken against the contractor.

Once you have selected a contractor and before you sign any agreement or contract;

Do not enter into any construction agreements without a written contract. Before signing a contract make sure that your attorney reviews the contract.

Ensure that you authorize the contractor to apply for the building permit as your agent. Registered Home Improvment Contractors are required by law to apply for all building permits which are subject to the Home Improvement Regiatration Law.

The BBRS strongly cautions building owners against applying for their own building permit . Reputable contractors will apply for the permit, acting as the owner?s agent and with the owner?s written authority. Only a HIC Registrant may apply for a building permit for work covered by the program. Your contractor may need BOTH the license AND the registration depending upon the type of work being performed. If a contractor is reluctanrt to apply for the building permit on your behalf it may be an indication that the contractor does not possess a license or a registration.

It is very complicated for a doctor to treat, and most people that have brittle diabetes see an endocrinologist. This is a doctor who specializes in the treatment of complex diabetes problems along with other endocrine disorders.

Brittle diabetes, as we now know it, can be difficult not only for the patients but to the family and health care team. While this condition most frequently occurs in the age group of 15-30 years old, there have been reports of this condition afflicting the elderly.

Before proceeding to the brittle diabetes update, let us remind ourselves of what this term means. It is a term used when the blood glucose level swings from low to high and vice versa. It is also called unstable or labile diabetes. Although some have to accept a life with this roller coaster ride, there is good news.

That said, it is not the end of the world; it is just a challenge one has to meet. The key to achieving a blood glucose level to as normal target as possible without severe hypoglycemia is lifestyle. It is all about consistency in lifestyle, in carbohydrate intake, and insulin injections and exercise. If all the aforementioned are constant, chances are the blood sugar level will be stable.

This method is supposed to keep blood sugars within the target range. A majority of participants of this study were able to attain A1c reading of less than 7.5% by using insulin therapy for the brittle type 1 diabetes. Study participants with this result were able to prevent the life-threatening complications without increasing the chances of hypoglycemic events.

Recognized onset between 25 and 64 years (Adult Diabetics). Growth onset, insulin-dependent diabetes may occur up to the age 22 or 23 years, but between 20 and 35 years, such cases merge into the adult-onset cases that are much less insulin-dependent. These patients begin with variable symptoms of diabetes and may or may not need insulin.

Don?t forget you?re working with a food, not a medicine. If they?re going to have a treat, they can drink an extra dose of Original Limu to help balance it. They need to keep track of their Blood Sugar levels anyway so increasing the Limu until it works for them is not a big deal. Original Limu can be very flexible!

It is a life-long disorder that can happen in children or adults. It is a totally different disease than Type 2. Type 1 diabetes occurs normally in children, adolescents or young adults, and most often at puberty. This type of diabetes is also called insulin-dependent or juvenile diabetes.

Glucose from digested food circulates in the blood throughout the body as a ready source of energy for cells. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas. Insulin effectively allows glucose the enter into cells. Some of the glucose in the body is stored as a source of energy in the form of glycogen. With insulin resistance, the glucose remains in the blood and does not enter cells.

PORT ANGELES, Wash. (AP) ? The Port Angeles School Board is banning classroom pets because of concerns that dogs, rabbits, snakes and baby chicks threaten student health and safety.

The Peninsula Daily News reports (http://is.gd/Nw0ZNP ) the board voted in favor of the ban this week and will take a final vote at its June 11 meeting.

The board member who voted against the ban, Sarah Methner, says, "It's a nanny state gone wild."

Superintendent Jane Pryne says the rule was prompted by complaints against a few teachers who let their dogs run in the hallways.

Board Vice President Lonnie Linn says a review by legal and insurance teams found that almost any animal in a classroom is an unacceptable risk, especially for disease such as salmonella.

Fish tanks and service animals would still be OK.
