 and the Jerusalem Cross flag as they make final arrangements in the Kidron valley, below Jerusalem\'s Old City walls May 10, 2009 ahead of the visit of Pope Benedict XVI, who arrives in Israel tomorrow for five days and will deliver a holy mass in the Kidron Valley on May 12.<br />\r\n++++++++++++++<br />\r\nJust happen upon this driving away, and actually shot it from inside my car.',700,700);)

![](javascript:doblowup('Jerusalem Cross','/images/uploaded/up_a9hBBS.jpg','A view of the stage under construction in the Kidron Valley, under the Old City walls of Jerusalem, on 03 May 2009 where Pope Benedict XVI will hold a mass on May 12 during his "pilgrimage" visit to the Middle East. The workers are setting wooden panels that resemble ancient walls, with the center panel containing a Jerusalem cross. The Jerusalem Cross, or the Crusader Cross, was used on the banners given by Pope Urban II for use in the First Crusade, in 1095, with the four smaller crosses believed to symbolize the four corners of the world where Christianity spread from Jerusalem, the center cross.<br />\r\n++++++++++++++++<br />\r\nCaption etiquette: make the caption reveal something that, maybe, everyone does not know. I knew the cross was called the Jerusalem Cross and also referred to as the Crusader Cross, but I wasn\'t entirely sure how or when it got its name, so I looked it up in Wikipedia. One who is a Crusader buff or a Papal expert would, of course, know this tidbit of Middle Ages history. It took five minutes to learn a bit of history that adds a lot to an otherwise pretty boring photograph. The Pope should look good standing behind this cross waving to the faithful........',700,700);)

Two more Israelis are suspected of falling victim to swine flu, Israeli health officials reported on April 20. At right is the arrival hall and baggage carousels. ',700,700);)

 chairs the weekly cabinet meeting in his Jerusalem offices on 26 April 2009. At right is Cabinet Secretary Tzivka Hauser and at left Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai speaks with Silvan Shalom, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Developing the Negev and the Galilee (R). Standing is media adviser Yossi Levy. <br />\r\n++++++++++++<br />\r\nA new government has taken over. A new prime minister with a room-full of new ministers. A new agenda. A lot of controversy, but the same formula to have a rotating Pool cover the weekly meting - the \'wire services\' - AP< RTR, epa, AFP and Getty rotate taking turns covering this each Sunday morning. The Pope is coming in a few weeks and the schedule looks like a lot of Pools as well. The new photo-op in the age of security - do a Pool. Easier for the authorities.',700,700);)

 who organized the event, hopes to have one billion people turn off their lights, as part of the Earth Day celebrations. <br />\r\n+++++++++++<br />\r\nThey turned off the light illuminating the walls but then staged a light show with lots of projectors..go figure. Was nice and always nice to do one\'s part. Turn a light off today! A PC too.... and don\'t forget to bring a tripod.',700,700);)

 in the center of the rotunda in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the traditionally accepted place where Jesus Christ died, was buried and resurrected, in Jerusalem during the Holy Fire ceremony on 18 April 2009. The Holy Fire ceremony takes place on Holy Saturday, the day before Easter, and is attended by all the Eastern Orthodox Christian faiths who believe in a miracle that takes place as fire begins from within Christ\'s tomb as is then spread quickly throughout the church and even back to the capitals of eastern orthodox countries.',700,700);)
