Muhammad Ali is regraded as the founder of modern Egypt. Muhammad Ali died on the 2nd of August 1849, and, ultimately, was buried in the imposing mosque he had commissioned in the Citadel of Cairo. I also think that the wrestler is named after him.

I think the info about Muhammad Ali the heavy weight boxing world champion is cool.

This is the final image in the stamp series. Ironically it will feature first on my blog as its message is to remember Israel's fallen soldiers and civilian victims of terror. Thanks again to Ze'ev for his help with the Hebrew and to Becky Liao for supplying me with the correct Chinese ideogram.

I have just started out designing pictures to be knitted on dishcloths, and it was requested that I make a Star of David. I struggled with this for a couple weeks, trying and failing. Then as I was praying one night I clearly saw the pattern and was immediately able to graph it out. I believe it was God who gave me the ability to see this. I am a Christian, but by saying that, I believe I am a Jew by adoption. I believe Jesus was a Jew and I as a Gentile receiving Him became a Jew by adoption.
