22. Mortal and Immortal Courage
"Celebrían?!" Mina gasped, her reaction quicker than Elentar's, who stood frozen, his hand still wrapped around the thin arm of his grandmother.
"I just said so. Is something wrong with your ears?" was the woman's terse reply. Relayed instantly to her mind by Elentar, Mina felt she was understanding the woman's Sindarin as if it were English, another language, but one she was fluent in. While her Sindarin was probably better than her French, it was certainly not as good as that.
"And who are you?" the Elf went on. "I thought there was a treaty between us that no mortals would sail to Aman anymore? Apart from the fact that you couldn't have chosen a worse time to sail west. I thought your king was such an honourable man?"
Her gaze dropped to Mina's mid-section. There was no mistaking her derisive sneer. She turned to Elentar. "Did you come to implore the Valar to grant your bastards the choice of the Peredhil?" She snorted and shook her head. "Again, you couldn't have chosen a worse time for such a venture."
Celebrían swallowed hard, and Mina noticed that the Elf was shaking. "Elentar, I think she's about to collapse. Let her go! Lie down, my lady."
She had never addressed someone with 'my lady' before, but although Celebrían was thin, grimy and looked every bit like what she said she was, like a runaway slave, she was also, without doubt, a lady.
Celebrían shook her head. "Answer my questions first."
Elentar's gaze flickered to Mina. He did not even have to think his question at her. Mina shrugged. It was not her place to decide what he wanted to tell his grandmother.
"I am Elentar."
Delicate silver eyebrows rose a little. "I gathered as much."
Black eyebrows mimicked the expression. Grey eyes turned yet a shade colder.
"I am Elentar Elrohirion. And this is my wife Mina Elbenstern."
Slowly, he let go of her arm, his eyes wary, his posture tense. He was ready to lunge for her, should she try to get away.
She blinked, stared, turned a little, her attention now completely on him. She was shivering so hard now that she could barely stand. Her lips moved slightly, but no sound emerged.
Celebrían stared at her grandson.
When she reached out, her hand was shaking. She had to reach up. She was tall, but Elentar was taller. Her fingertips touched his high forehead, trailed along his hairline, down to his ear, that pointy ear that still fascinated Mina so much. That ear, that was almost round, compared to the sharp points of Celebrían's ears, which somehow reminded Mina of ficus leaves.
"He married a mortal?"
Elentar's eyes sparked. Celebrían had better say nothing wrong now, Mina thought.
"No... I... That isn't what I..." Celebrían's face fell. "Then he's dead, isn't he?"
The skin stretched tight across Elentar's high cheekbones. A nuance of expression Mina had come to recognize. Elentar, she thought.
A small sigh.
"Yes," Elentar said. "He is dead. And so is my mother."
Celebrían dropped her hand as if she had been burned.
"I - I -" For a moment she seemed to contemplate saying she was sorry, then the Elf decided against it. Pulling back, a haughty mask forming on her face once more, she regarded her grandson coolly.
"But you are not mortal" she said. "You are..."
"Peredhel," Elentar snapped. "Thanks to the Valar."
He reached for Mina, pulled her against him possessively. "And so will be our daughter."
Celebrían stared at them. "But if you already know, why did you sail here?"
"You need to get away from here," she added, casting a wild look around, panic audible in voice and movements again. "However did you make it so far inland?"
Mina frowned. "I thought the Straight Way was barred to mortals?"
Celebrían looked at her as if she was seeing Mina for the first time, or at least taking in her appearance for the first time. Jeans, trekking shoes, the backpack - for all their subdued colours still modern materials and very obviously not of Middle-earth origin.
"Where do you come from?" Celebrían repeated.
Mina squeezed Elentar's hand briefly. Tell her. We need to know what's going on.
Elentar cleared his throat. "From... across the Void. Another world. A world of mortals."
Mina suppressed a snort. Mostly mortals, I'd say.
Don't distract me.
But he squeezed her hand back.
Celebrían swayed slightly. "Across the Void?"
Elentar let go of Mina, quickly putting his arm around Celebrían. "You're exhausted, daer-naneth. Can we rest here? Is it safe here?"
The Elf gave a short snort of laughter. "It isn't safe anywhere, Elentar. But I suppose those bushes will have to do. Your wife is right: I am exhausted."
They made camp in the shelter of the bushes. The dead flowers and grass whispered under their feet like tissue paper. Mina tried not to imagine what had caused this meadow to be that way, so perfect, so soft, so dead. Had Sauron come back?
Their dinner was sandwiches and chocolate bars, bananas and coke. Celebrían's eyebrows quirked again, at the outlandish wrappings, garish colours and strange tastes, but she didn't comment, simply stuffed herself with the hunger of someone who hadn't eaten enough in weeks.
Somehow, maybe because of the movies, Mina had assumed that Elentar got his expressive eyebrows from his grandfather. Now, with his grandmother kneeling next to her, she wasn't so sure about that anymore.
"I don't think they will come here tonight," Celebrían said suddenly. "I don't think He really cares at the moment. There are too few of us and not enough of them yet."
"Them?" Elentar asked.
"New orcs. I think He knows that we are no real danger to him. And his minions do not hate. I doubt they feel anything. Orcs, however, do hate. They will search for a runaway slave. The minions will only take me or destroy me when they happen to... scent me."
"What... something... ever is going on here?" Mina asked. Speaking was more difficult than listening. She needed to think what she wanted to say before Elentar could subtly provide the correct version in her mind. "Is it Sauron? Is he back?"
Another thought occurred to her. "And which year is it?"
Celebrían leaned back tiredly. "I can see there is much that needs telling. But it will have to wait for the morning. I am too weary to even know where to begin."
She looked at Elentar. Now that she had eaten and was relaxing just a little, her exhaustion was beginning to cloud her proud gaze. "Maybe just one thing... When did you leave Middle-earth, daer-iôn?"
Elentar hesitated. "In the year 397 of the Fourth Age," he said at last.
"Ahhh," Celebrían sighed. "Today is the seventh day of the fifth month of the five-hundredth and twenty-seventh year what Men call the Fourth Age."
For a while everything was silent.
Too silent, Mina thought. No nightly noises, not even a breeze to stir the dead leaves. When a mere mortal feels she can hear the heartbeat of two Elves loud as drumbeats, it's definitely too quiet.
"But I was in the other world more than three hundred fifty years," Elentar said softly.
"Let us talk again tomorrow. I haven't truly rested for many weeks," his grandmother replied.
Elentar offered her his sleeping bag, but she wouldn't take it. She only accepted his camping pad and his cloak as a blanket. Celebrían lay down at once, hiding her head so it was impossible to tell if she closed her eyes for sleeping or not.
"I think it is better if I stay awake nevertheless," Elentar said.
"I don't think I'll be able to sleep," Mina replied.
"Cuddle up next to me in your sleeping bag and try to sleep anyway," he suggested, reaching for her, a quick loving caress.
Elentar sat down with his back towards a thorny bush, his eyes on the back of his grandmother and on the moonlit meadow. Mina obediently lay down next to him between the thicket and the sleeping form of the Elven woman. It was fairly comfortable. The sleeping bag was warm; the camping pad evened out the ground. The spicy scent of Elentar's body surrounded her.
"I wish I had a weapon," Elentar said quietly.
"You don't?"
"Just a dagger. I couldn't possibly bring a pistol. And you know I don't own a sword. And besides -" He brushed his hand over the soft tissue of dead flowers and grass next to him. "Against someone - something - that can do such as this... I doubt that a sword would be much use."
"Maybe we should have brought a basket with hand grenades?"
Elentar chuckled softly. "I'm glad you're not too scared."
"Scared? Me?" She had to be careful that her voice didn't rise, shrill with fear. "I'm frightened out of my wits. But that won't help now."
"I'm so sorry, Mina." All warmth bled from his voice. "That I brought you here, into danger, you and our daughter."
"You know exactly what I am going to say next, so I won't."
"Stubborn woman." He sounded shaky.
"Says who?"
He quickly bent down and kissed her. "The stubborn elf. And now try to sleep."
She wanted to repeat about how she was certain she wouldn't be able to sleep, but that seemed a little childish. And no matter in what kind of horror they had landed, of one thing she was already sure: she would need her strength.
She closed her eyes, snuggled a little closer to Elentar, and before she could think more about the details of some movie quotes concerning dirty big roots jabbing her back, she had fallen asleep.
A hand on her shoulder woke her. Her back and her legs ached, stiff and sore from the exertions of the previous days and the unaccustomed way of sleeping.
"Time to get up," Elentar said. "I don't think we can stay here, and we still need to talk about a couple of things."
Mina propped herself up on her elbows and nodded, wincing slightly as the muscles in her shoulders and neck protested. The previous day felt like a dream, her memory distorted by a mist of fear and exhaustion. But a glance at the crushed blades of grass next to her sleeping bag brought everything back: the golden, sunlit glade, the meadow with its many flowers, all dead. And no sound, no sound at all.
She exhaled softly, trying to listen. But there was only Elentar's breath and the barely discernible rustle of fabric. She looked up. Celebrían was stretching uncomfortably, her bony fingers stroking down her hips, down the faded fabric of Mina's spare pair of jeans. Fairly tight on Mina's already slender figure, they were baggy on Celebrían's rail thin body. The black t-shirt however, long on Mina, was too short for the Elf. The washed out flannel-shirt Elentar had donated fit better but was wide like a cloak.
Mina wriggled out of the sleeping bag. Before she could even consider asking Elentar if there was water nearby, he handed her their largest camping pot.
"Don't drink it, it's tepid. But I think it should be okay for washing."
"Thanks." Carefully balancing the pot and her pack, Mina ducked behind a bush.
It was barely enough water to deserve the phrase "a lick and a promise" as a description, but Mina felt better for it.
Breakfast consisted of fresh fruit, cereal bars and cold tea. And for Mina, vitamin pills. She tried not to think about her baby, safe within her, but how safe could that be, when all of them were in danger here?
"We need to talk some more," Mina said.
"Indeed." Celebrían hitched the jeans higher.
Elentar simply narrowed his eyes at Celebrían. "What happened here? And why did you say 'formerly wife to Elrond Peredhel' when you introduced yourself yesterday?"
"I have some questions of my own yet," said the Elf. For a moment she cocked her head as if she was listening intently to things not audible, nor visible on this plane of existence. At last she relaxed a little and inclined her head.
"Very well. I shall start."
She raised her head, staring across the meadow. What she was looking at Mina couldn't discern. But she had the definite, uncomfortable feeling that Celebrían was seeing something. Mina was not perfectly sure where Elves were concerned, of course, but if humans started seeing things that were not really there, that was usually not a good sign.
"He came through the Ekkaia, the Door of Night. Some... three months ago, according to mortal reckoning. He came... a maelstrom of darkness, a wave of... Void. I think... a third of us died right then and there, there was a howling of disembodied fëar in the wind all around me."
"And the Valar?" Elentar asked.
"Who? Who came?" Mina whispered. "Was it... is it... Sauron?"
Celebrían came back into the present with a visible start. For a short moment she did not seem to remember who her companions were. Then she laughed.
"Sauron? I wish! He was evil; I still have the scars to prove it. But when all is said and done," she whispered. "When all is accounted for, then he was only a minion, and a stupid minion at that. All that was needed to destroy Sauron was to destroy that ring. Now... not even the destruction of Eä may be enough."
Mina shuddered. Celebrían turned her fey, silvery gaze on her, and there was a mad light to her eyes. "Yes, mortal, be frightened, be very frightened, for the Black Foe of the World has returned and none are left who can fight Him."
The sun did not darken at her words, but the silence echoed around them, a silence, where there should have been a myriad small noises of birds and bees and butterflies, but there was none, none at all, save for Celebrían's rasping breath.
"Morgoth," Mina said in an almost inaudible voice. She had to say it. Her ears had to hear that name, or she would not believe it.
"Yes," Celebrían replied. "He is back. Back from the Void. And He is stronger than ever before."
"And the Valar?" Elentar repeated his question, his hand at the pendant he always wore around his neck, an old luck-charm, probably, a crusty old oyster shell.
"The Valar, the Valar, the Valar, our protectors, our guardians!" Crazy laughter echoed in Celebrían's voice. "They are gone, daer-iôn. Gone! It is said the Valar cannot be killed. But I have seen too many beings killed in my time that were impossible to kill. I do not know if they are dead. What I do know is that the Valar are gone. Námo is gone. Houseless fëar have fled the empty caves where he guarded them against a better future of new bodily raiments and new lives. Now they will never see either."
She hunched over, shuddering, swaying back and forth, her eyes dark now, distant, on scenes she would never be able to unsee again.
"I've seen fëar sucked into the Void. I've seen Elves die and their fëar had nowhere to go. I have seen hröar broken into bloody pieces no bigger then my hands." She cupped her hands in front of her, so small, so slender that they would have held a grapefruit maybe, or two apples. "I've seen - felt - fëar being annihilated. No Halls of Waiting for them, no new raiment, no new hope. Tell me, would the Valar allow this, were they still here?"
She ducked as if under the lash of a whip, swivelling her head in panic as if she expected her pursuers to break through the bushes any moment. And the sun above was still warm and golden, the flowers on the meadow beautiful and bright, almost alive to behold. Almost...
"He dresses his minions in the hröar of the dead. Most of the Elves that he did not kill he has captured. Those he can break, he turns into orcs. Those who are too strong are put to work in the mines at Formenos. Elven slaves, in our own country, in the Blessed -" she choked, flinched under the memory of more lashes.
"In Aman, the Damned Realm."
"Scheiße," whispered Mina.
"Is there a way to get away from here? You expected us to have sailed here, didn't you?" Elentar was very pale, almost white. "If the Valar are gone, the Straight Way should be open."
Celebrían came out of her daze, shaking. She waved at Elentar in an irritable way. "The Straight Way was already open." Then she hesitated, and continued in a much softer tone. "You wouldn't know that, though, if you left already in 397." She sighed.
"Apparently... the magic used to make those evil rings, the power employed in the War of the Ring... It destabilized Middle-earth. A young seer, a Hobbit and the heir to the throne of Gondor came to seek our help to save Middle-earth. Even our powers wouldn't have been enough to save Middle-earth, but the Emairth, the Fates - powerful Ainur - and probably Eru Himself intervened. They were given astelellion, magical power strong enough to save Middle-earth, but power that could be wielded only by immortals. They were brought to Aman, and asked for the help of the Elves."
Celebrían fell silent, her thoughts obviously far away, the lines of her face harsh and bitter. Suddenly she went on. "I was against it. Hadn't Middle-earth taken enough from us already? My sons, my daughter? My life? My husband!" This word she spat out as if it was poison on her tongue.
"Then Elrond is dead?" Mina couldn't quite keep a hint of anguish out of her voice. If she had hoped to meet one Elf, then it would have been Elentar's grandfather.
"What is it with Elrond and Men?" Celebrían asked. Her eyes narrowed, glaring at Mina. Elentar put a protective arm around Mina.
"Is... my grandfather dead then?"
Celebrían snorted as if she wanted to say she wished he were dead. "Nay, as far as I know he's alive. I invoked the Doom of Manwë concerning the severance of marriage upon Elrond's return to Valinor. My fëa and my hröa had been separated. It was my right. I would not be his ever again, in name or body. Not after all he and his beloved Middle-earth had taken from me. He agreed to stay in the Halls of Mandos forever, so the Doom could be upheld. But Námo refused him."
She laughed again, a bitter laugh that wasn't quite sane. "Not even Námo wanted him!"
"What happened then?" Elentar drew Mina closer, his voice carefully devoid of expression.
Celebrían shrugged. "What could Lord Manwë have done under the circumstances? Forced us to keep vows we never made? He declared our marriage severed. I was free at last. And Elrond... mewling piss-pot that he always was, removed to that shiny white villa near Alqualondë."
"Is that all? If you say he is not dead, is he a slave now, too?"
Celebrían glared at Elentar. "You should know better than to interrupt your elders, hên. That is not all. Elrond was searching for a way to free his fëa from his hröa when that little band of heroes arrived here. That little lyg of a girl went to him, and he fell for her. A mortal girl! Calling an Elf from his chosen path. And of course he had to go and play the hero again. He convinced the Council to help Middle-earth again. And it gets better. They actually managed to save Middle-earth."
She broke off, overcome with wheezing bouts of laughter. "They saved Middle-earth for this. For this! So He could come back! Soon He will be strong enough to cross the Straight Way, and then woe upon the world."
Elentar ignored his grandmother's hysterics. "Does that mean for all you know he is alive? Elrond is alive? And there are others, other elves, with him? There is a way from here to Middle-earth? And He - " Instinctively Elentar lowered his voice, "He is not yet strong enough to attempt it?"
"You're a smart one." Celebrían's voice was like ice, then suddenly softened. "Like your father, like your uncle. Like your aunt. All of them, they were such smart children."
She shuddered again, then shook herself. When she looked at Elentar and Mina again, she was calm. "Yes," she said. "I do not think He is strong enough to take the Straight Way and subdue Middle-earth. Not yet. But He will be. Soon."
"Then we need to go the Straight Way before He does. We need to warn Middle-earth. If we get there in time, we might form an army - we might have a chance -"
"A chance? Against the Black Foe of the World?" Celebrían closed her eyes, her lips quivering in painful mirth.
"Alternatively we can simply lie down and die right now, right here." Mina was getting angry. "If that's what elves do when faced with danger and destruction, then have fun. I am only a human, mere Man, and I'll be damned if I don't try and stop Him, Black Foe of the World, Black Enemy, Bauglir or whatever. My -" She hesitated. "The world where I come from, has seen two world wars and we - they - are still going strong. Melkor."
Elentar shrank away at that name, Celebrían shivered. But Mina would not - did not want to - be scared of a name. She was scared of that name, of course she was, but she wouldn't allow it. She couldn't allow it.
"Melkor," she repeated firmly. "He was defeated twice, wasn't he? Chained in dungeons here in Valinor, and then cast out into the Void? That means, he can be defeated. And if he could be defeated then, he can be defeated now."
Except of course, if he can't be, a small voice whispered at the back of her mind. But she put her hand on her stomach, where, somewhere beneath flesh and muscles, her daughter rested. A daughter, a peredhel, who would be born here, in this world.
Celebrían looked at her with something like surprise in her eyes. "What passion your kind has! What foolish passion. You sound like that little lyg who is now with my former husband. So sure that the world can be saved, that the world should be saved."
"If you are so sure that the only solution is giving up, pardon my question: why aren't you dead yet? Or an orc? Or still a slave? That," Mina said, pointing at Celebrían's cheek. "Must have hurt."
"It still hurts," Celebrían replied, her voice tinged with a tone that sounded almost like satisfaction. The Elf inhaled deeply, the too small t-shirt revealing an almost hollow stomach and prominent ribs. A fey fire gleamed in her eyes, yet she appeared more normal to Mina, or at least not quite as mad as moments before. "I will not die. I had the choice once, put before me by the creatures of the servant. And I returned to life. At the very least I shall not make that choice for the master."
Celebrían smiled suddenly, as if she had made a decision - the decision to trust them, Mina wondered? Having escaped servants of Morgoth that wore the bodies of the dead, she would have had to be suspicious of a grandson and his wife seemingly appearing out of nowhere.
Hunching down, the Elf whispered, "The last warriors of the armies of the Eldar in Aman are hiding in the caves that were once the Halls of Mandos. I was on my way there. But now I think that is too dangerous. If you truly want to reach Middle-earth, we need to make for Alqualondë at once." She broke off, tilting her head, listening. A look of alarm swept over her face.
"Someone's coming," she gasped. "Hide! And if they have dark eyes, darker than the night, then run, run like the wind, for if they are killed, everything that is alive within a circle of five hundred yards is destroyed!"

Movies about musicians:''Coal Miner's Daughter''
LEAD SINGER Sissy Spacek (left) perfects Loretta Lynn's hillbilly drawl in a film based on the country music legend's autobiography.
PITCH-PERFECT? Spacek won an Oscar for her wide-eyed performance, which found her doing most of her own singin' on such Lynn hits as ''Honky Tonk Girl.''
HUMBLE ORIGINS Duh. Lynn was a coal miner's daughter. She grew up desperately poor in Butcher Holler, Ky., and rose to fame with the encouragement of her husband, Doo (Tommy Lee Jones, right), whom she married at the ripe old age of 13.
HIGH NOTE A shy Lynn overcomes her stage fright and gets a roadhouse a-hootin' and a-hollerin' with an increasingly confident version of her early hit ''There He Goes.''
GUEST STAR Levon Helm, drummer for The Band, plays Lynn's dad.
TRAGIC ENDING? Almost. Lynn suffers an onstage breakdown, but eventually makes peace with her celebrity. And in real life, she's become more hipster than hillbilly, thanks to Van Lear Rose, her new album with the White Stripes' Jack White.

The end of the Global Economic Crisis does not mean that the world economy will return to what it was. Growth will resume as global economies move on to what is next: new needs to be met, new customers to be served, new geographies to be established. This new economy will be even more challenging than past.
Innovations in the chemical and materials sciences will be key enablers of the new economy. This webinar describes the future of innovation in these spaces, and the roles that chemical engineers will be playing. The examples selected illustrate new fields of innovation and the new drivers of innovation. Additionally, a discussion is included on key metrics for measuring innovation effectiveness, and additional steps to maximize the return on innovation efforts.
This is the second in a series of AIChE Leadership Webinars. Periodically we will feature different industry leaders who will discuss their perspective on these issues. The first session was presented April 14, 2010, and featured Henry T. Kohlbrand, Global R&D Director, Process & Manufacturing Technology R&D, The Dow Chemical Company.

2011 Recap: The Dolphins were probably thinking Daniel Thomas would be their bell cow in 2011 and Reggie would be the complimentary player. Not so fast. Thomas couldn't stay healthy and after a slow start, Bush erupted in the second half of the season. His season high for rush yards going into last season was 581 and he finished with 1,097 yards (5.1 YPC), including 100 yard games in each of the last four games of the season. His receptions weren't great, but he did finish with 43/296/1 for the season. Although he didn't look great running in between the tackles, he was able to get to edge and created big gains with misdirection plays.
What's Changed: The Dolphins have been under scrutiny this offseason by bringing in David Garrard and spending a high pick on QB project Ryan Tannehill. Joe Philbin was brought over from Green Bay to be the new HC and Mike Sherman is the new OC. With a new offense in place and a possibly new QB under center, the Dolphins offense may have some bumps in the road this season. Brandon Marshall was also shipped out and Chad Ochocinco is now the defacto #1 WR. Daniel Thomas is heading into training camp healthy and showed some juice when he wasn't pulling a hammy. The Dolphins also brought in an explosive RB in the form of Lamar Miller, who has a similar skill set to Bush. So the passing game could regress and there will be more mouths to feed in the backfield.
Outlook: Bush has been s fragile as a China Doll over his career, but seemed to figure things out last season. With a new coaching staff and possibly one of the least talented offenses in the league, Reggie Bush is not someone I'm targeting in draft, especially as the 48th player off the board. We could see Tannehill behind center sooner, rather than later and Thomas/Miller will take opportunities away. It was a nice coming out party for Reggie, but I feel like the party could be over. If he slips to the end of the 6th or 7th round, then he has some value, but until then, let someone else take the former Kardashian.

Global Evening of Qiyam for Egypt
SuhaibWebb.com is calling for a Global Evening of Qiyam1 this Saturday February 12, 2011.
We ask everyone who visits this blog, no matter where you are, to organize a local qiyam program to pray for the people of Egypt. National Muslim organizations, MSAs and regional coalitions, masajid, youth groups, families – even groups of neighbors! – can come together and raise your hands in du`a' for the people of Egypt. The time is short, and the task is large. This global event may not go down in the history books, but we pray it goes down in something even more valuable: our records of deeds. We pray that Allah showers the earth with His angels on Saturday, and that they find His slaves crying in sincere prayer.
Just as the Egyptians used Facebook, Twitter, text messaging, and the internet to stand for their liberation, let us also join them in using these tools to gather masses of Muslims to pray qiyam. When the Mubarak regime temporarily shut down the internet and cell phone services, they misunderstood something: they are unable to cancel the rest of the world's access to these tools. They cannot control the blessings of Allah.
Let us honor the Egyptian example of using these tools for a just cause, and show them that the world is with them: standing in prayer, just as they are standing in Tahrir and elsewhere. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us that there is no veil between the prayer of the oppressed and their Creator. Let us appeal to Him in prayer as an ummah on the same evening asking for the same things.
Send in your photos and video clips by emailing submissions[at]suhaibwebb[dot]com. Leave a comment on this post, mentioning your location as well as your name and organization, if you plan on answering this call. Be from the first to answer—the sabiqoon2—and get more reward by commenting sooner rather than later, as your expression of solidarity will contribute to the momentum of others.
We will feature your qiyam event, big or small, insha'Allah so that the people in Egypt can see that we all stand behind them – and to show our Creator that we are not neglectful of our brothers and sisters, and we have not turned away from His favors and signs. Rather, we have turned towards Him and remembered "the Days of Allah."
- Qiyam is an extra prayer offered after Isha at night. During the witr du`a', one is able to ask God to assist and liberate the people of Egypt. If prayed in congregation, everyone is able to share the same call, begging Allah to shower His Mercy and Aid upon the Egyptian people. ↩
- Qur'an, 56:10-14. ↩

This is an excellent effort masha Allah. On behalf of MAS, I am calling on all of our chapters across America to participate in this Evening of Qiyam for Egypt. As an American who loves Freedom, and a Muslim who loves justice, I call on everyone to support this noble initiative.
Hossam AlJabri, Muslim American Society Executive Director
Doa is a brain of worshiping…insha-Allah I will do the Qiam with my family and pray Allah to accept our doa and bless our brothers in Egypt(Muslims and Christians) and relief their suffering and bring them a good leader who has Taqwa and fear of Allah.
I think u should call this Global Evening of Prayer for Egypt so it includes non-Muslims and is more interfaith. Also, for ppl who aren't in a community they can pray on their own iA. Jazaks!
Assalamu Alaikum,
I will participate in San Diego insha Allah. I know a Qiyam is being planned as I type.
MAS, San Diego Chapter
I always get the question about collective and organized qiyam when it comes to things like this. Can you please clarify. Some say it should only be done in Ramadan as that ws the prophetic precedent for an organized qiyam and the case of Ibn Abbas (r) joining the prophet (saw) in his qiyam doesn't count as evidence for an organized qiyam.
What are the conditions and evidences? I really would like to see a fiqhi discussion on it as sometimes qiyam programmes are organized at local masajid by youth groups as da'wah and tarbiyah activites. There's a lot of goodness in them, but it always brings up the issue from some about their fiqhi basis.
Some discussion on this would be much appreciated to clear doubts from anyone's mind who may find himself holding back from your proposed global qiyam idea.
I plan on doing it.
Let's see if Young Muslims can encourage all our chapters to participate as well insha Allah
Nice Idea. I come from Germany but spend these days in Jeddah and Mekkah. I try pray Quiam in front of the Kaaba.
please brother…make du'a for the safety of Muslim nations at all places and countries.
may ALLAH make things easier for their affairs, fiddunya wal akhirah…
may ALLAH give us extra strength, ameen
Assalamu Alaikum,
Why don't we expand the scope of the qiyyam to all of our brothers and sisters in the world, including Egypt?
It is nice to see we are supporting our brothers and sisters, but how come our qiyyams and fundraising runs on the same cycle as the news (i.e., we only organize such events when the news covers these events)?
Our brothers and sisters are struggling for freedom in our own neighborhoods and all over the world.
I'm in from San Diego iA!
I'm in from TN.
We'll be joining at masjid Omar in Fullerton/Anaheim insha Allah!
Assalaamu Alaikum,
InshaAllah MAS YOUTH of Arizona will answer the call.
As-salaamu'alaikum wa rahmatullah. The Muslim Youth Alliance at IIOC (aka Masjid Omar Al Farouk)will be in the house (of Allah), standing… and on their hands and knees insha'Allah.
UC Berkeley, CA insha'allah
I think the point is to do something locally, so if you have the capacity/ability to do an interfaith event that should be fine too. Just make sure to also pray some Qiyam and make dua! Not every effort needs to cover every possible angle– that's for individual people to take initiative.
I'm in Berkeley and will do it inshAllah. I'm also encouraging my friends in UAE to do it
i am attending with all my senses inshaa Allah.
may Allah accept our good deeds from us all.
i have a suggestion, why don't we exptend the event? why just one night? why not every night until this thing is over? or at least every week.
Allahoma make the best of us be in charge of us and don't make the worst of us in charge of us.
May Allah forgive us all.
Alhamdo lelahi Rabi Alalameen.
Mohamed Khalil,
Memphis, TN, USA
Houston here
I pledge insA!
This just came from a friend there in Cairo. We can't let the momentum die.
"I can see things getting big again in the coming week
in Egypt esp if the people keep getting more aggressive.
tahreer isnt enough esp if they go to the presidential palace he has his own army (tanks, planes) that answer only to him. these people are ruthless tyrants who are probably ready to murder thousands more before leaving,
but Allahu Akbar."
Fasting and Qiyam,
Like its Ramadan!
The place where Shaytan wrecks is,
Down here in Sugar Land, Texas
I pledge to make qiyam inshaa'Allah.
But please make it interfaith.
I plan on it, InshaAllah!
-Tempe, AZ
inshAlah, MAS YOUTH San Diego will participate.
London, UK iA
San Diego, CA – in sha' Allah
Insha'Allah I'm in too from Pismo Beach, California.
Twin Cities- Minnesota.

Count us in, insha Allah. We'll try to organize something here in they valley (socal).
inshaAllah! Southern California is in!
We're getting together at the Islamic Society of Orange County this Saturday inshaAllah.
Young Muslims (ICNA) holding it down at usual! MAS is working too. Where are the MSA WEST and MSA National folks at? Let's get ISNA, CAIR, MPAC, al-Maghrib, neighborhood coalitions, families, everyone. Interfaith or otherwise, let's mobilize to do what we can!
Imam Suhaib's OWN home-town has got to represent!!
We are in insha'Allah!
Bay Area,CA
Southern California MAS Chapters, ISOC, ICOI Youth Group and many others will be at the ISOC masjid all night insha'allah!
MAS Southern California Chapters with ISOC and ICOI Youth Group will answer the call iA
Excellent idea. I plan to do it with my family.

I pledge myself to the effort, inshAllah.
May Allah transform us all for the good.
I plan to attend this in San Diego insha'allah along with the rest of my family.

MSA National encourages all chapters to join together in this beautiful initiative and pray for peace, safety, justice and human rights for our brothers and sisters in Egypt.
We're publicizing on our Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/msanational) and Twitter (http://twitter.com/msanational).

For CW President Mark Pedowitz, spinning off a show from his network's biggest hit was a no-brainer."I'm a big believer if you have something that is working and you can incubate it and find a way to get it on the air, it's a good way to get pilots done," Pedowitz said of the upcoming Vampire Diaries spin-off Sunday at the Television Critics Association winter previews.

"Klaus was the founding father of New Orleans, and the show is set in that venue," Pedowitz said. "Klaus is just a great character and the Original Family has such dysfunctional family dynamics. We felt it was a great way to go to take the show."Also on board for the show is Phoebe Tonkin's Haley, which Pedowitz said ruled out some rumblings about Tonkin playing the lead role in the network's Amazon, an origin-story take on Wonder Woman....

|Welcome to the swap, Booberry and Lissa140!
Have either of you started canning this season? I've done some jams, and jellied cranberry sauce, but my tomatoes are just now about the size of a quarter. Last year, I was eating big, juicy tomatoes by the end of July. Sure hope we don't have an early frost, or I may not get any ripe tomatoes this year! Lots of peppers starting to come in, but without tomatoes, I can't use them for salsa. I know I can freeze them, but I'd love to find some canning recipes that use them ... other than just for pickling.

|Hi Bonnie,
I am a canner but I only have a boiling water bath (no pressure canners here.) I have not done ANY canning this year. I'm just starting to get ripe tomatoes. I hope they ripen before early blight kills all my plants completely. They were doing great up until about a week ago or so. I'm itching to make some tomato basil sauce, salsa and roasted red pepper spread. So I might see if I can buy some tomatoes from local farmers this weekend.
We've had such a hot summer I'm surprised that everything is late in my garden. I did get a late start to planting but I would have thought the hot weather would have made up for it.
Anyway, if there's one thing gardening teaches you, its PATIENCE!
- Posted by booberry85 z5NY (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Wed, Aug 4, 10 at 12:25
|Did you say Pepper recipes? They're not salsa, sauces or soups but try these:
Habanero Gold Jam
To tell you the truth, this sounded a little frightening to me. Then I tried it. It's delicious! The habaneros give you a warm sensation. No, they're not going to hurt you! The apricots and the red peppers help to give the jelly a sweet finish. Makes 6 half pint jars. This recipe has been on the internet for a couple of years now. This was posted by Annie on www.gardenweb.com the Harvest forum.
1 cup minced dried apricots (⅛" dice)
Next day, bring the mixture back to the boil. Stir in liquid pectin. Boil hard 1 minute.

|Thanks for sharing those, Becky! Habaneros are way to hot for my family. Can I make that with a milder pepper? Here's what I'm growing that has some heat - Ancho, Anaheim, Cascabella, Mariachi, Senorita, Beaver Dam, and TAM Jalapeno. Would any of those work?
Here's some irony for you. I actually made that Roasted Red Pepper Spread last year, and didn't have enough peppers, and had to buy a few to make the recipe. This year, I'll probably have to buy the 1 lb. of Romas instead! I ended up with 12 (4oz) jars, but by the time Christmas gift giving was over, I only had one jar for myself. Loved the flavor! We ate it right out of the jar on crackers. What do you do with yours?
Here is the list of participants for this swap so far:
Plenty of time left for folks to sign up!

|Bonnie, I'm not sure about using another pepper instead of the habs. I do have another pepper jelly recipe were you can play a little bit with the ratio of hot to sweet peppers.
I love that roasted red pepper spread! I usually serve it over cream cheese with crackers. I've also used the ends of the jar for thickener & boost the flavor in spaghetti sauce.
Hot Pepper Jelly
This recipe was adapted for canning. The recipe comes from Jambalaya, Crawfish Pie, File Gumbo by Joan Zeringue Robbins, Janice Zeringue Hymel and Winona Zeringue Champagne.
˝ cup finely chopped green bell pepper
Combine peppers, vinegar, and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a rolling boil. Boil for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add pectin and food coloring. Boil for 1 minute. Pour, boiling hot, into hot jars, leaving Ľ inch head space. Adjust caps. Process 10 minutes in boiling water bath.

|So Becky, is the pepper jelly used mainly as a glaze for meats?
I've got a batch of Linda Lou's Cereal Bars in the oven that I made with some of my homemade Ginger Peach Jam from last year. When I first made the jam, I didn't like the chunks of candied ginger in it, but it seems like the flavor got better over time. Anyway, I'm going camping tomorrow, and thought those would be perfect for breakfast.
Can't wait until it cools down enough to make soups and chili again ... but not before my tomatoes are ripe, LOL!

I've used the pepper jelly as a glaze for pork & chicken and served with cream cheese and crackers as an appetizer. I also have a savory cheese thumbprint cookie that I use as an appetizer. I use the jelly to fill the thumb print.

|Sorry everyone. It seems a line got left out of the Roasted Red Pepper Spread recipe. The missing directions are:
Peel onion and garlic. Finely mince onion and garlic. Measure 1/4 cup and set the rest aside for another use.

|Sunny, maybe Becky can answer that for you, since I wasn't really sure when I made it either. I would say mine was not quite as thick as applesauce, but close.
So far we have:
... and a couple of lurkers : )
There are 6 more days to sign up.
- Posted by booberry85 z5NY (email@example.com) on Tue, Aug 10, 10 at 20:31
|Donna, like Bonnie said "not quite as thick as applesauce, but close," I think is the perfect consistancy. Sometimes I'll substitute lemon juice or lime juice for the red wine vinegar.

|Thank you, Becky, for sharing some great recipes. Unfortunately, there was more interest in the recipes, than the actual swap ... this swap has been cancelled due to lack of participation.

|Poo! I thought this would be a fun one.
I canned all weekend.

As our shoes are pretty much the only piece of 'equipment' we need for our discipline it comes as no surprise that there are continuous debates about which are the best to wear for Parkour. There have been trends along the way and no doubt someone will discover a new favourite soon, but I decided to do a little survey to find out what everyone is wearing now. Below is a list of the shoes that 50 of my traceur friends (girls and guys) around the world are wearing most often ordered by most popular:
12 Nike Darts (although many people preferred the older versions such as the mark V)
10 Puma FAAS 300
7 Feiyue
5 Kalenji Eikiden 50
4 K-Swiss Si-18
3 Asics GT Ultra
3 Kalenji Vision
2 Nike Free Run
1 Puma Cabana II
1 Kajenji Success
1 'Asics Badminton shoes'
1 New Balance 373
These results show that there are a few shoes that have become popular amongst traceurs, but there are similarities between them. We prefer cheap shoes that have good grip on the sole that will not rip off after a few uses. Some are also chosen as they aid 'touch' – the ability to 'feel' landings through the shoe.
Invariably, the shoe preference is a matter of personal choice. Do you want to improve anything specific in your training? Do you just need a pair that will last? Hopefully, the list above will help your decision as these have all been tried and tested. If you need a little more help, go here. Happy training!

I remember first seeing Kris Freeman when he was 21 at a diabetes conference. Two years after he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, Eli Lilly began sponsoring his dream of becoming an Olympic cross-country skier. During his off-season, you can find Kris at diabetes camps inspiring children to follow their dream. He is the only person with diabetes to compete in a winter endurance sports event at the Olympics.

Words. Images. Facts. Figures. Data. Times and dates. Over and over and over again. The defining characteristic of life in 2013 is this constant swirl of information. It surrounds us and envelops us. Many people seek a way out, a way to live without this constant barrage of email and Facebook updates, and tweets, and texts.

As I listen to the news of the recent Mega Millions jackpot of over $600 million, my dreams aren't about fast cars, vast mansions, or plush vacations. My thoughts revolve around my diabetes. How awesome would it be to have the best care that money can buy?

Minneapolis-based Medtronic, Inc., has announced that the US Food and Drug Administration has given it the go-ahead to market its mySentry monitor, which allows caregivers to check the blood sugar of a diabetic person sleeping in another room. The bedside monitor, which costs around $3,000, works in tandem with Medtronic's MiniMed Paradigm® REAL-Time RevelTM System, a combined insulin pump/continuous glucose monitor unit.

Here's the scenario: You're a famed prosecutor who happens to be on an insulin pump. One of the criminals you put away years ago has been released from prison, and he's eager for revenge. This is a particularly cunning criminal, so he hatches a subtle plan. He hacks into your insulin pump, giving you a massive dose of insulin without warning. As you drive to work one day, you begin to feel woozy. That's odd, you think, looking down to where the pump attaches to your stomach. I just ate....

Claire Duncan is one of many people with type 1 diabetes who wears a continuous glucose monitor and an insulin pump, in this case, an Animas® VibeTM. In an age of almost routine medical marvels, Duncan doesn't really seem to be an exception.

How many times has this happened to you? You're driving somewhere and something feels off. You suspect that your blood sugar level may be dropping, but you plow ahead. Now, imagine your car sounding the alarm: "Attention: This is your car speaking. Your blood sugar is low. Pull over and eat a snack."

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in upstate New York is working on a new approach to blood sugar monitoring that could open the door to an artificial pancreas. The plan is to develop an automated monitoring system so sophisticated that it can take into account the often great differences in blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity among people with type 1 diabetes.

"Good news," my diabetes nurse educator says to me. "Your new insurance covers continuous glucose monitoring supplies!" I give her a half-smile as my brain screams at me, "CGM? Really? Something else to deal with on top of this damn disease, an insulin pump, exercise, and nutrition?" But I comply, and a CGM is added to the rest of my paraphernalia.

Medtronic and Ford Motor Company have teamed up to develop a prototype device that will allow people with diabetes to monitor their blood glucose levels as they drive.

EAU CLAIRE — The Dulany, the dining area on the upper level of Davies Center at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, will have a new menu starting Tuesday, Sept. 5 and soon it will have a new look.
Daily buffets that include soups, salads, entrees, sides and desserts will replace last year's menu. The buffets will be $6.50 and include a beverage. Guests who reserve the adjacent Heritage Room for meetings and events may dine at the buffet or order from a special menu. Traditional holiday buffets will be featured throughout the year.
Remodeling of The Dulany will begin the second week in September. Improvements include new tables and chairs, flooring and wallpaper. A new entrance to the restaurant also is planned. The Dulany will remain open during the remodeling.
"We wish to thank all of our customers in advance for their patience during our remodeling process," said dining services director Gary Prellwitz.
The Dulany is open Monday through Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Buffet menus are available online.
