Vaikaradhoo Island Council has denied permission to prominent Adhaalath Party scholar Sheikh Ilyas Hussain to conduct a sermon on the island, exclusively for "young girls between the ages of 18-30''.
The sermon was due to be held on the island today, according to Island Council President Ahmed Waheed.
Speaking to Minivan News, Waheed said that the council's decision was made "in the best interest of the islanders". The council had decided that if Sheikh Ilyas was to preach on the island it might "disrupt the island's peace and create unrest."
"It is the responsibility of the council to control any unrest as we do not have any police on the island, and we are certain that we could not control the unrest that might be created if Sheikh Ilyas is allowed to preach here," Waheed said.
"The sermon is to be held as a part of a religious workshop currently going on in the island for females, and is only for young women aged 18-30 – no men are allowed inside,'' he said.
"The Adhaalath Party Wing on this island requested permission and the council had a meeting regarding the issue," he explained.
Minivan News spoke to Waheed around 2:00pm this afternoon. Sheikh Ilyas was at that moment waiting in the Vaikaradhoo lagoon as islanders protested against him on the jetty.
"There are lots of citizens at the jetty raising their voice against him,'' said Waheed. "This island has a population of 1700 people."
Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) Vaikaradhoo Wing Vice President and Vaikaradhoo Council Member Ali Amir told Minivan News that about 50 or 60 MDP supporters had gathered at the harbor to express their opinion on the Sheikh's arrival.
"Adhaalath Party President Sheikh Imran is on board the same vessel with Sheikh Ilyas, and MDP supporters are shouting 'traitor' at them,'' Amir said. "The police have arrived to the island but they are just waiting at the moment."
He said that the islanders were not happy with Sheikh Ilyas delivering a sermon to females only, and said it was politicised.
"We still do not know why they are waiting on the vessel, may be they are feeling guilty about something they have done,'' he suggested.
Speaking from the boat, Sheikh Ilyas told Minivan News that he had attended the island to deliver a sermon organised by the islanders of Vaikaradhoo, but when he arrived MDP activists had gathered at the harbour and used foul language at him. Minivan News heard people shouting "traitor" in the background.
''Maybe that is what [former President] Mohamed Nasheed has taught them it,'' Sheikh Ilyas suggested. "He has said that MDP is an ideology that cannot be wiped out."
A group of people said to be MDP supporters disrupted a sermon held by Sheikh Ilyas at Masjid-al-Furqan in Male' last Friday night, after Male' City Council declared that it the sermon was unauthorised.
Newly-appointed Islamic Minister Sheikh Mohamed Shaheem Ali Saeed declared in April that all mosques in the country would be taken away from local councils and brought under the authority of the Ministry,.

It is my firm belief, as I have repeatedly stated, that to fix the deficiencies of our nation, we must fix the deficiencies of our women.
The officials on the Varikandhoo island council must be given a most severe punishment for their opposition to virtue. Do they not fear Allah (swt)?
adhaalath on Thu, 24th May 2012 3:58 PM
Alhamdhulillahi. The Vaikaradhoo Ibn Batutas have scared away that lecherous old Rannamaari.
adhaalath on Thu, 24th May 2012 4:01 PM
You don't understand brother Hanguraama. The female mind (like other parts of its anatomy) is most receptive and fresh at the age of 6 to 9. Hence this sex education class should have been for that age group. I believe the Vaikaradhu people knew this and was upset at the age group.mashallah.
Samahath Naseer on Thu, 24th May 2012 4:12 PM
Dhivehi Hanguraama, go ***** yourself. We do not need people like you and Ilyas going around and telling women what to do and what to wear. Stay away from peace loving Maldivians.
**** you, damn clown!
mariyam on Thu, 24th May 2012 4:18 PM
Maybe Ilyas wanted to choose a few more wives and mistresses for himself and his party people by preaching to the women only!
Thank god there are some Council members with the guts to do the right thing and deny this opportunist such easy access to the women of the island. What a load of bullshit in the name of Islam. Shame on such men like Ilyas and his followers!
Ahmed bin Addu bin Suvadheeb on Thu, 24th May 2012 5:09 PM
Is this a new form of Islam that Adhaalath wants to teach? Ilyas must get some sort of "satisfaction" by preaching to just 18-30 year old women?
Seriously, this guy ought to be banned from these "sermons" and referred in the first instance to a psychiatrist. We are glad that the Council put a stop to this self gratification by some head cases in the name of Islam.
I've always maintained that Adhaalath poses one of the biggest dangers to our society.

yes damn idiots , this country will never be able to have place for Christian and it will remain as a Islamic state.
Anni and his culprits can do what ever the protest and Ilyas and other Islamic scholar will have thier sermons in all Islands.
Do not under estimate the power of all nightly Allah .

this all wrong. It was not exclusively for the women of age between 25 -35 as mentioned and it was for everyone and all were welcomes to join that.

What does Ilyas want an orgy? isn't it bad even religious wise for a man to be alone with so many women, as a sheikh he sure seems to be making some odd requests.
unknown on Thu, 24th May 2012 7:12 PM

Unkown, thank u for highlighting the error and apologize from all for my mistake.
I do not want to prey to Anni and neither believes that he has the capacity to run a nation. Anni the dictator had proved himself not be worth to consider for potential candidate for 2013.
You have been infected with Anni virus and that is why you can not see what is happening around us.
I have never liked Maumoon in my life and never was follower of him either.
For you information, i did lot of campaign for the dictator Anni and voted him. But my vote was given him only after he made the coalition with all parties apart from Gayoom.
My vote had gone for a toss when Dictator start to kick the people out from his coalition, and when he had forgotten who infect had help to bring him the presidency.
Anni got on 24% on the first round and second round he marginally won the election because of otehrw parties not because of his vision and capacity.
Many of us wanted a changed and people voted for a change not for Anni. that is the reality and you need to face it and the dictator and the traitor will never be able to rule this country ever.

Why do we as humans have to repeat the same mistakes, never learning from history? Puritanical religious dogma never successfully served as a tool for governance. Religious text in all holy books are ambiguous and susceptible to be interpreted by "scholars" serving their narrow goals.
The Islamic Golden Age was a period when the Caliphate excelled over all civilizations of the day. The secret to their success is the same secret which unleashed the European rise after the renaissance. The Golden Age was a period of learning. Muslim scholars, scientists, doctors worked closely with learned men regardless of their religion (mostly Jews who were persecuted by Christians then). Greek texts were translated to Arabic, greatly influencing the works of Muslim mathematicians. The Algorithms which constitute the basic principles of modern computing has an "al" for a reason.
Europeans experienced a traumatic period lasting hundreds of years for their xenophobic bigotry. The Church was all powerful unleashing countless wars and pogroms against minorities. That was until their societies came to their senses and exposed the Church for what they were.
Secular government is the only solution. In fact true religious revival (where the focus is on prayer, forgiveness, honesty, generosity and respect) can only happen when people are not compelled. The most religious western country (USA) is also the country which most fervently enforces religious freedom and the separation of religion and state.
Secular govt would eliminate the power of the devious "scholar" (or Ministry) to control the people. Thus the only scholars left would be the truly God fearing ones. It would make no economic sense for the bandits to masquerade as "sheikhs".
Unholy men armed with Holy books are truly an apocalyptic force. Especially when people are compelled by the law of the land to follow them.
Khadheeja on Thu, 24th May 2012 10:04 PM
Why is Anni being blamed for the breakdown of those relationships? It takes both hands to clap. In my view no relationship can survive without trust and partnership.
I believe that there was no intention ever to work with Anni. The plan was to roll Anni over in the first 100 days. We are not blind. We know what was going on.
What I have seen these last three years is a bunch of men whose egos are bigger than agreements they signed, who came into the government as Trojan horses to kill off Anni . There was no partnership.
Look at the outrageous vote of no confidence motions passed against Nasheed's cabinet ministers at a drop of a hat!
Self absorbed, self important egoistical narcissists who couldn't think beyond their noses.
Look at them bickering now about who got what post.
Had a grand old day didn't they complaining about the political positions Anni created… how MANY they were blah blah blah . Didn't take them too long did it, to fill them up?
Hypocrites, ALL of them
Not one of them thinking of the people.
Only about themselves.
Mohamed on Thu, 24th May 2012 10:34 PM
Yes Mode, people voted for a change, not for Gasim or Hassan Saeed , if they did one or the other would have come second, not Anni.
The sad thing, Mode, is that Hassan Saeed, Gasim and Waheed forgot that.
They did everything they could in the last three years to STOP President Nasheed from bringing those changes. They opposed his policies and wanted him to change the policies on which he campaigned.
He refused to compromise on his promises to the people. Thats where the relationships unravelled. Mode.
Anni worked hard to deliver what he promised. Unfortunately for him and for all of us, Gayooms political machinery and the culture of selfishness and corruption he nurtured while he was President was just too deeply embedded in the top management of the civil service, the fat cat business community the judiciary and the uniformed forces.
Yes, there were mistakes made by Anni. But there were many mistakes made by Gayoom.
Why did the unformed men and women not remove Gayoom?
Why did they remove President Nasheed?
Seek the truth Mode. Don't lose this opportunity to seek the truth.
That is if you care.

We all know Anni is evil and paving the way for the Dajjal and Yajuj Majuj, but how does that make ilsy any better? Are you saying his orgy shouldn't have been c**k blockd?
nova on Fri, 25th May 2012 12:59 PM
Why is it that public protesting has become such a fashionable thing lately ? It only gives room for the loudest and not the wisest to express their idea. I guess its no wonder that our elected offficials set such good example.
mode on Fri, 25th May 2012 7:13 PM
i know many of the reader of MINIVAN NEWs and the NEWs itself are strong Anni supporter and many of them dos not see what anything wrong happening with the country.
Many of those people will agree what ever Anni says and they are seen the Dictator as much more superior human being than rest of the Maldivian.
Ilyas will continue and he has the rights to educate the people on Islam as Anni has the right to preach in all Maldives Island.
If Anni can go and visit all Island and do carry his campaign , why Ilyas cannot ?

Sheikh Imran is an infidel and he modifies religion for his political needs. These people of Adalath party are extremists and like Pakistanis modify Islamic rules to what they want (modifying the meaning)and they mislead the people. May Allah's wrath be upon them.

Ahmed bin Addu bin Suvadheeb on Sat, 26th May 2012 6:05 AM
I can count from only my personal experience. I've never met a so-called religious "scholar" who was really a scholar in the sense that we commonly know.
I agree with @peasant that the sooner we cut the power of these Sheikhs the better off we will all be. Religion only serves to divide people and as a tool for that purpose and that purpose only.
We are compelled by God to learn. Learn about Him and His religion. You don't need some self-righteous "scholar" to teach you what God would like from you. It's all infront of you. Read! Read the Holy Quran! Are you illiterate? Then, go and learn to read first! And then read the Quran and understand it. You don't need me or Anni or Waheed or some Sheikh or a scholar or whatever scum on earth to teach YOU! It's YOUR responsibility.
Mohamed on Sat, 26th May 2012 8:14 AM
im wondering why minivan news put "female only" here in the article refering to the lecture, unless it was to demean or as a sarcastic way. its not the first time lectures have been targeted for women. the truth is in these lectures its the women who benefit because certainly there are some women who do want attend a lecture where male audience is not dominated and women can get seats comfortably, and also there are topics that are particularly related to women. what is wrong with that? ok when looking at conventional tradition, i have seen some scholarships given to women only. if i want i can make that also with negative connotations. there are countries that ruled by a woman only (i mean only one president and the woman is the president)…so what…i visited minivannews website after many months and i was really disappointed to read and feel that the purpose of that was to give a negative connotation. There are women's only demonstrations done for the sake of ex president Anni. Why, what benefit they get? they leave out their family and go to streets for the sake of getting presidency to one man, and majority of the women who go demonstrating for Nasheed are women wearing head scarf. Nevertheless it is a fact that since Maldives became independent there has never been even one single women who wear head scarf in the cabinet while majority of women do wear in the Maldives. It was no different during Nasheed time or Maumoon time or now also.. So next time please write as a headline "women only" (unfair) demonstration for the sake of nasheed also. I have never seen Nasheed's wife participating in any of the demonstrations…so whats they big deal all these women sacrifice their precious time..the only comparable thing i can relate is pied piper's story.
Ayya on Sat, 26th May 2012 8:32 AM
@Ahmed bin Addu bin Suvadheeb and Peasant.
Completely in agreement with you. Thank you for bringing some reason into the discussion about the politicisation of Islam in the Maldives.
A Figh Academy is all we need. The Figh Academy should be accountable to the Ministry of Home Affairs. The Ministry of Home Affairs should also take over the functions of the Ministry of Islamic Affairs.
Zakath should be managed by MIRA.
Let the National University of Maldives take the lead to promote Islamic thought and philosophy in the country.
Rasheed on Sat, 26th May 2012 10:41 AM
@ Mode
One of the biggest mistakes of President Nasheed's administration was listening to Gasim and agreeing to the demands of the Jumhooree party to create the Ministry of Islamic Affairs.
The Jumhooree Party brought the Adhalath Party with whom they had formed an alliance into government when they signed the agreement with President Nasheed to support him in the second round of the Presidential Election.
Gasim has a lot to answer for the conflict and fragmentation in our society.
The irony of the whole thing is that the Adhalath Party which has been raising its voice against alcohol, pork and semi clad women on tourist resorts would enter an agreement with Gasim who owns one of the biggest chain of resorts in the country, is it 15 resorts? I lost count.
Perhaps not that much of an irony, I understand that Imran Ilyaas and Shaheem studied with Gasims money, earned from selling alcohol and pork!!!
Gasim is delusional if he does not want to believe the frightening reality that these guys may have used him to study but they have moved on from him to masters with deeper pockets than Gasim, and they will sell him to the devil when it so suits them.
These people are part of an International Political Movement. They seek to dominate the world , in many ways very simiiar to what Hitler did.
( perhaps this is the Fourth Reich??).
These are fascists, not Islamists. We should not insult Islam by calling these people Islamists.
Gasim has no idea does he, what monster he has created?
mode on Sat, 26th May 2012 11:19 AM
i totally agree with Mohamed.
What ever Anni the dictator does, will have to be taken in good spirit and who ever is not in agreement with what ever the doctor says, will be a traitor.
This country in big mess and both Anni and Gayyoom need to get out of the politics to bring the peace and harmony to the nation.
These two are the culprits and they both are responsible for the damaging our values and they need to be punished for their power hunger and robbing the country.

Wisconsin's First District has voted him into Congress seven times over the past 14 years, but popular as Paul Ryan is at home there may be another constituency that holds the Republican vice presidential candidate in even higher regard.
Ryan, you see, is the country's most powerful Randian. At least, he used to be. More on that in a moment. First, a look at his adoring relationship with the work of Russian emigre novelist Ayn Rand, author of "Atlas Shrugged" and "The Fountainhead."
It began, according to a 2005 speech Ryan gave to The Atlas Society, when he was still a student. And it guided his thinking on monetary policy for decades to come:
"I grew up reading Ayn Rand and it taught me quite a bit about who I am and what my value systems are," he told the group. "It's inspired me so much that it's required reading in my office for all my interns and my staff."
Ryan has since denied making his staff read the books.
He continued: "But the reason I got involved in public service, by and large, if I had to credit one thinker, one person, it would be Ayn Rand. And the fight we are in here, make no mistake about it, is a fight of individualism versus collectivism."
Rand's literary inner circle was called, ironically perhaps, "The Collective."
Individualism, or objectivism in some cases, provides the philosophical underpinnings for most of Rand's narratives. The novelist and literary critic Harriet Rubin wrote bluntly in the New York Times that "Atlas Shrugged" is a "glorification of the right of individuals to live entirely for their own interest."
It also celebrates atheism, treating religion with a degree of scorn.
"If devotion to truth is the hallmark of morality, then there is no greater, nobler, more heroic form of devotion than the act of a man who assumes the responsibility of thinking," one of Rand's characters says in the novel, the "alleged short-cut to knowledge, which is faith, is only a short-circuit destroying the mind."
This is where politicians and business leaders tend to pull up.
Ryan has, as noted above, taken a step back from his impassioned Rand-regard in the past few years. And in an interview with the National Review this April, he did a pretty firm about-face:
"I reject her philosophy," Ryan says firmly. "It's an atheist philosophy. It reduces human interactions down to mere contracts and it is antithetical to my worldview. If somebody is going to try to paste a person's view on epistemology to me, then give me Thomas Aquinas," who believed that man needs divine help in the pursuit of knowledge. "Don't give me Ayn Rand," he says.
So after all that, Paul Ryan, it seems, has shrugged off Ayn Rand.

It has long been politically correct to state that it's "not the size but the motion" that counts. Women have so long been under the thumb of religion and patriarchy and most women have learned that lying to "your man" is much more fruitful/profitable than denigrating him because of his lack of penis volume. And what good would bitching about penis size do anyway, it's not like a guy can change it. It is a done deal and it's simply not worth bitching about it once in a couple context.
However, that being said, that point of view in no way dictates that biologically speaking, the penis size is unimportant. The vagina is an elastic structure and responds differently to various shapes and volumes. In addition, most studies indicate that the the penis size to total body ratio is a fairly good indicator of female sexual selection in nature. And Homo sapiens males are very well endowed indeed in this regard, favoring a view that in Homo sapiens females do exercise choice (evolutionary speaking).
However, as in the another post on this forum regarding Homo sapiens brains getting smaller since agriculture, the fact that Homo sapiens have migrated to non tropical climes, began wearing clothes all the time and the advent of religion, female choice has been near totally emasculated. 20,000 years is long enough to create reproductive bias dimishing the value of a large penis. But this bias does not imply necessarily that the female vagina has had time to 'adapt' to lesser selection.
The following graph, in parallel with Adriana's comment on this board agrees that women's response to penis size is variable. It also demonstrates that "bigger" is not "better" in the absolute sense. But what it does support is that size is relevant. The important number to consider is that accross the board, beyond races and nationalities and age, the average male is between 5.5" and 6" in length erect. So when women are asked if they 'fake orgasm' and stats reveal that a whopping 50% of females have faked it and when we look at where that 'average' size fits on this graph, we can guess at the 'faking it' motivations. Our size range is simply incompatible. As for girth, I think we can simply say that if your fingers touch when holding the penis in your hand, it is on the narrow side. A mere little can of Redbull is 7" in circumference, and a regular soda can is close to 8".
in another 10-20,000 years, the male form would see an increase
Oh come on now, that only seems like a long time!
I was thinking "nowadays", actually. I wouldn't go as far as claiming that Women's Lib completely obliterated what we owe to evolution, yet I find it strange that we, as introspective animals living in a society where sexual equality is guaranteed (theoretically, at least), still seem unable to overcome our most primal nature once in a while.
Maybe that 21st century humans don't talk sex often enough. Or freely enough. Come to think of it, only people with low hormone levels should be allowed to talk about sex.
we've been "overcoming our most primal nature" for a few millennia thanks to religion's obsession with "elevating" man from the dirtiness of nature. I see women's lib as a return to how things in nature would naturally occur. We've also not been talking enough sex for a few thousand years.
It all relates nicely to the "original sin" of knowledge, keep women in the dark so that we may be more obedient. As long as women do not talk (at the very least) of these things, women remain subjugated.
In the US, people talk a lot about sex but of all the places I've lived, they are the most sexually repressed people I've seen...
Yet, the repression is expressed psychologically or emotionally, but not physically. All sex frequency studies show that people in the USA get more frequent sex than other countries. Not only is the frequency increased, but practices such as heterosexual anal penetration are much more common.
I had a friend who once posited that the USA was schizoid on this topic, implying people's words are not reflected in their actions. There are certainly a lot of contradictions.
I am sorry to tell you, but this is historically incorrect. Look at any pictures of naked men in ancient Greece you will see that smaller penises were actually socially preferred. Even before the Greek era ancient manuscripts still alludes society preferring smaller penises (I am not saying that 7 inches is big or anything, but that smaller penises were socially preferred):
"In the same way, I became disgusted with Oholibah and rejected her, just as I had rejected her sister, because she flaunted herself before them and gave herself to satisfy their lusts. 19Yet she turned to even greater prostitution, remembering her youth when she was a prostitute in Egypt. 20She lusted after lovers with genitals as large as a donkey's and emissions like those of a horse. Ezekiel 23:18–20
So please do not talk about evolution when, for some massive civilastions, smaller penises have been preferred.
So if the manuscript I quoted was not semetic in origin it would be creidble?
I think thou is forgetting that thee Bible is a book which thou can see what the culture and society was like...
"...this way, they can look better to women by comparison :-)"
I suppose those Catholic leaders deciding to modify such art by concealing the genitals found the comparison a lot less flattering. This, perhaps, explains much of the warped Catholic views on sexuality.
Random anecdote, but I took a trip through Europe with my mother when I was about sixteen. Somewhere in Wien, probably in the Kunsthistorisches Museum, there were statues of naked men aplenty. They all had incredible physiques, but their manhood was a little off. I couldn't figure out why the sculptors had made them so small and with such an odd shape. About three statues in it suddenly hit me: "So that's what an uncircumcised penis looks like!" I felt like a bit of an idiot. Moments later, my mom made a comment to the effect of "They certainly weren't boastful about some things."
I'll be honest; I felt a little better about myself in comparison to the statues.

Thieves & Kings (series)
- Posted by Johanna on February 19, 2006 at 8:40 am
- Category: Graphic Novel Reviews
- CREDITS: by Mark Oakley
- PUBLISHER: I Box Publishing; $16.95 US
Thieves & Kings is a classic fantasy adventure, with a young witch and a lost princess, a forgetful wizard and a boy thief, pirates and palace guards. Mark Oakley wonderfully creates the effect of another world. While I was reading the collections, anytime someone would interrupt, they'd ask if I'd been taking a nap, because surfacing from his kingdom was like returning from far away.
The first volume begins with Rubel, the thief, coming back to Highborn after four years at sea. Sadly, he finds that his grandfather has passed away, and his friends are gone — they've grown up and settled down. The only one left is Varkis, an imp; a form of demon, imps look like little people with bat wings. Something's also wrong with the princess, heir to the throne. As Rubel hears more of the wild rumors surrounding her, he also gets chased a lot.
In the second book, Rubel sneaks into the palace, discovers more about what's wrong with the kingdom, and escapes the prince's guard during a coup. We also meet Quinton, the scattered wizard, and Heath, his tomboy apprentice, destined for great things. Quinton's odd view of the world makes for nice comedy interludes as Rubel's story gets darker and more complex, with dreams and journeys and the possibility of death becoming real.
The various forces begin to work together to share their knowledge and recapture the kingdom for the rightful heir in book three. The characters also contemplate the nature of love, including the danger of it turning possessive and inadvertently hurting the one beloved.
The fourth book becomes more complicated, adding new characters and more plotlines. The one that stands out as particularly important is the evil witch Locumire, who contributes to the new direction for the story. Heath, meanwhile, is concerned with the conflict between love and responsibility as she faces the fear of a life without love. She's growing up. Events are moving faster; the characters have taken on life of their own, going about things in the background while we're reading about someone else.
There's a long winter in the fifth book during which Heath and Rubel and a new friend build a home for themselves. More witches appear and battle, not just for power but for who they're going to be, using emotion and self-realization. Heath is growing into her power and into womanhood.
The distinctive feature of this series makes itself immediately apparent, as part of the story is told with illustrated text pages. There's so much background to the world of this story that it has to be told in a variety of forms. As the series progresses, more of the story is comics, with that format used for action, conversation, or scene-setting while text is used for insight or history.
That's not the only format experiment. In the fourth book, Oakley incorporates comic strips into the ongoing narrative. They can work on their own for the most part — each has its own punchline — while they also advance the story, an admirable balancing act well-executed.
The art is dense and scratchy, as though the creator kept doodling around the edges. It matches the story, which feels like it's been polished over and over, continually revisited and elaborated upon. Given this detailed style, some of the fight scenes are a bit hard to follow, but that captures the confusion of the chase. I can imagine how Rubel, pursued by a squad out to get him, might feel. All of the characters have the same face with minimal features and dot eyes, providing for identification with them (if you subscribe to Scott McCloud's theory).
Young thief Rubel is a goodhearted rogue with a spirit of laughter and escape, no matter his predicament. Thief here doesn't mean "someone who steals possessions", but "someone not constrained by society and its rules". This special state lets him proceed with a clear uncomplicated heart, doing what he deems right. He also has a much greater responsibility; he can't depend on someone else's rules to show him where to go. That's why he's a battleground for the Shadow Lady, a mysterious figure of magic and danger.
He's a child of the forest, a wild magical untamed place. Varkis and Rubel often spat verbally, reminding us of Rubel's in-between state as not yet a man but more than a child. There's a continuity of being special, ranging from being able to fit into society to always being outside it. Heath is another battleground; she's able to be part of society, even given her unique abilities, but that makes her choice more difficult. Similarly, mortality is shown as both strength and weakness. Characters are flawed and in danger because of it, but they're also made vibrant and attractive by it.
The Shadow Lady, aka the Queen of Halves, can be confusing. Everyone, including herself, considers her evil, but there's more to it than the simple dichotomy of good and bad. She seems one of the more truthful characters in the book, and she does help Rubel when he needs it. Oakley's insights into human nature are complex and multifaceted.
When Rubel returns from the sea, his friends have settled for less than they could have had, although achieving their dreams would be hard and dangerous. There's a deep loneliness involved in keeping your youthful enthusiasm and belief. The characters seem to be attempting to marry that innocent strength to knowledge and experience. Often, the adult characters are lacking, evil, or ineffective in the face of fear. Loss is a motivator; what do you do when you return home but home's no longer there?
Throughout the books, emotion is the key to insight. Turning points come with despair, rage, or sadness, and the lead characters can be surprisingly vengeful and harsh at times. There are many twists, turns, and digressions throughout this epic. It's not the book for you if you have to know what happens next immediately. With patience, though, the book reflects Rubel's belief that stories are great treasure.
More information is available at the Thieves & Kings website.

February 20, 2006 at 5:19 AMT&K is one of my favourite series (I started somewhere around the #30s, but now have the whole run *and* the trades). But it's kind of hard to read it properly, those past few years. Mr. Oakley only manages to produce some 3 or 4 issues a year (I don't complain – those that do come out are still great; plus he does some webstrips now and then) and with such an involved storyline I always manage to forget where he left off last time. I really should find some time to re-read the whole series some time soon… maybe once #48 comes out.

February 10, 2011 at 12:06 AMGreat review. Thieves and Kings is one of my absolute favorites, and I anxiously await the next installment as much as the next "Wheel of Time" or "A Song of Ice and Fire" book. M'Oak has done a masterful job at blending comedy, light fantasy, high fantasy, and true human drama into a beautiful story.
I know this is an older post, but anything that can be done to increase the fanbase and encourage more work (such as the "Apprentices" graphic novel) on this story is something I feel I have to do.

Aug. 24 Reflection: Taste & See
I have always celebrated my Midwestern roots. There is something beautiful about driving through the vastness of her fields. Plots of corn, soybeans, wheat, alfalfa, sunflower and sorghum — they go on for miles. By July, the waves of the ocean have nothing on the tassel-tipped green waves in the fields in Illinois, Indiana and Iowa. Submerged in it, you'd think there was enough to feed the world ten times over. Then today I woke up to read that one in four children in America are malnourished, and nearly half of all children here are born into families that receive food subsidies. How can this be?
When I was in high school and college I worked at a local supermarket. I spent a lot of time bagging groceries. Maybe I bagged a few of yours (sorry about that bread, by the way). I remember the expectant mothers coming through the line with their WIC card in their hand and their heads held low. Milk, cheese, bread and cereal. Every time: milk, cheese, bread and cereal. They'd hand the card over to the cashier who'd let out a sigh. And as the barcode scanner beeped, it would startle them. Every time; like an alarm had been set off. "Look at me! Look at me! I'm a blight on society!" The only words I could muster were routine: paper or plastic. Like they really cared; whatever least prolonged the gauntlet of their shame. Behind them would be a woman with two carts full. That woman would mutter something like "I'd like to get free stuff, too. But I've got to pay for people like that." To this day, I try not to get jaded. I try and forget, instead remembering the amber fields of grain that can feed the world ten times over.
For as long as I can remember, "What about the kids?" has been embedded in the rhetoric of the church. So, what about them? I know when we ask the question, it isn't about these kids. It is about our kids. But what if ministry to children began with really feeding them instead of feeding them our stories? If we could solve that hunger – we with the two-carts full – I don't think we'd have to worry about how few children were involved in communities of faith. Nor would we have to worry about who would inherit our faith from us.
As you see those kids walking to school this week, remember: one, two, three, hungry. one, subsidy, two, subsidy. And be thinking of how you (and we) can respond. I know I am today.
Pastor Matthew
"For when I was hungry …" Matthew 25:35

In light of the FOIA postings on this list I thought I would post this.I thought it best to start a new post away form the "FOIA request Condign" postings as I have also included some **Defence News** article links.Respect to all,Clive Denton*******************How to Make an official Request For InformationGuidance on how to submit a request for information to the MOD plus details on the availability of information.Source: Defence FOIRead ON: http://www.mod.uk/DefenceInternet/Freed ...

Many more use the Freedom of Information Act in a search for the truth.Source: Defence NewsRead On; http://www.mod.uk/DefenceInternet/Defen ... derFoi.htm
Just to supplement Clive's post, here is part of the text from http://www.smartgroups.com/message/read ... geid=9188&which I sent to the list in June 2005. The thread may contain other tips.JoeIf anyone is thinking about making requests, here are a few pointers:1) The MoD are not obliged to respond to requests that will cost more than £600 to satisfy. This equates roughly to checking a year or two's records and providing copies of specific documents from within that timeframe relevant to a specific request.2) Any records more than 25 years old are most likely under the control of The National Archives, not the MoD.3) Probably in the order of 5-10 years worth of records are held in the department's office. Older documents (which have not been sent to TNA) will be under the control of the Departmental Records Officer. The request will still need to go to the FoIA contact, but records 5-25 years old will most likely take longer to process.4) Don't bother asking for MoD records on Area 51 or Roswell, or indeed (with a few exceptions, usually involving UK military personnel) relating to events anywhere outside the UK. Foreign incidents are outside the scope of the MoD, and it is very doubtful if they take any interest in them except in extraordinary circumstances. The Foreign and Commonwealth offic may have taken an interest in specific foreign UFO events, and might be worth contacting.5) Make any requests as specific as possible, and confined to a relatively narrow (eg 2 years or less) date-range. It is no good specifically asking for records of all CE3 cases received by the MoD without specifying a sensible date range - someone would have to spend the time checking 25 years worth of records, which would certainly breach the £600 barrier.If anyone wants advice on making requests beyond the advice above, feel free to contact me on or off-list.Cheers,Joe

I know it's late, but this post from Todd is inspiring - 21 Tips for Better Online Credibility. My favorite is #21:
21. Have a freakin' sense of humor
...Take time to laugh, poke fun at yourself, and make others laugh as well. Show people that you're human and not a corporate drone. Not only is it good for your soul…it's good for credibility and your business.

Poor Poseidon. It had so much going for it. It had a talented cast, a powerhouse director and a huge budget (over $160 million) to work with. So what the hell went wrong? After viewing this flick, I now realize why the first three letters of the title are P-O-S.
At this point I could go on and on about why the movie blows. But truthfully, when it comes down to it the picture only had one terrible flaw- a shitty script. The action and special effects were great to look at and none of us really had any doubt with Wolfgang Petersen sinking the ship, seeing as how he did it quite skillfully in Das Boot and The Perfect Storm. With this said, Poseidon would've been a huge hit if it weren't for those damn cheesy lines and even cheesier character development. In "Poseidon World", all the survivors know each other by first name although none of them have ever met before. Each character is established with a background, but none of these aspects are put to use in regards to plot. Take for instance the fact that Kurt Russell's character used to be a fireman, and yet whenever a fire emerges he looks as clueless as Tara Reid at a kindergarten Spelling Bee. Or perhaps you notice the annoying Hispanic chick Elena who was found lost, wandering about the cruise liner at the beginning of the picture, and yet hours later when she's in peril she blurts lines like "I know this ship. Follow me." Did Corky from Life Goes On write this script? What's the fucking deal here, guys? Can't you remember what you wrote five pages ago? There are plot holes bigger than Paris Hilton's plot holes in this movie. And apparently Josh Lucas has super human strength, can fly, and is completely immune to fire. If I wanted to see a Superman movie I would wait until the actual damn Superman movie comes out next month. And I will. Bitch.
Just about every supposed "emotional" moment in this cheese-fest is ruined by dreadful writing that makes the writers of Days of Our Lives look Oscar-worthy. This gets my vote for the biggest waste of talent for the year. I'm a huge fan of Kurt Russell, but he's absolutely lifeless here. I'm also a fan of Josh Lucas and I'm glad he still manages to find work, but pick some better scripts, dude. Stealth, The Hulk and Poseidon will get you nowhere in this lifetime except straight to B-movie hell. And I also must give props to the most cliché, Hollywood ending ever. If you've seen Armageddon (and everyone has), then you've seen this ending before. And what was with Richard Dreyfuss? He was supposed to be playing a gay old man but he wasn't funny, he wasn't all that gay, and for an old fart like him he somehow manages to survive situations that the younger people couldn't even get out of. Whatever. He lost his opus a long time ago and hasn't made a decent flick since. Okay okay, so a couple GOOD things about the movie. Emmy Rossum (The Day After Tomorrow, Phantom of the Opera) is absolutely adorable and so is the cute kid with gigantic teeth. All actors do a decent job, but they just didn't have any good lines to work with. And the effects were incredible. Again, WP knows how to sink a boat. But perhaps my favorite guilty pleasure out of this puppy is actor Kevin Dillon (aka Johnny Drama from Entourage) who basically plays a drunken Johnny Drama here too. I love this dude and I hated to see that he wasn't in the movie much. But when he was, it was a real treat. You rock, Drama!
In the end, Poseidon certainly wasn't a terrible movie, but it wasn't a good one either. This bland remake lands right in the middle-ground as many remakes do. I typically never say anything this cliché in my reviews but I just can't resist- if you want real entertainment, go rent the original Poseidon Adventure. But if you enjoyed the second half of Titanic without all the lovey dovey stuff, Poseidon just may be what floats your boat.

During the week Wendy and I worked on getting all the detached pieces traced and labeled for stitching. We had done a few weeks ago and Jill and a few other stitchers had been working on the detached pod layer for the pea pods. It is worked in Grene gilt sylke twist.
Since we had done the little peas – we HAD to add the detached layer on top! Here you see the layer that Jill worked after being liberated from the linen it had been prepared on. A few tacking stitches along the length and along the top using the ends of the thread that was still attached was all it took to secure the piece. Now we have peek-a-boo pea pods!

It's a conspiracy, I tell you. A conspiracy. And it comes in the form of a pizza cake. It looks innocent enough, doesn't it?
But it's lethal.
Here's how it started this weekend. With a simple: It's time to clean up your rooms, kids. After a few expected moans and groans, they both went up and started cleaning. Sort of.
You know how it goes. Throw the clothes on the floor into the closet, shut the door and declare the room clean.
Um…not quite good enough.
But, Mom and Dad, declares Twirl. I want to bake a pizza cake. Pl….e….e….a…a…s….s…e….e….
Okay. We can be reasonable. How about you start your cake, put it in the oven and while it's baking, head back up and do some more cleaning. When it comes out, it will take some time to cool, during which you can clean some more. And by the time it's ready to be frosted, you'll probably be done with your entire room. All spic and span. It's a win-win, we explained.
I won't bore you with the rest of the details. But you can pretty much figure out how it went from there. It may have seemed reasonable to us, but to a tweenager who wanted very much to bake a cake rather than clean her room, them were fightin' words.
Before I knew it, it was all about cakes and food, the grocery store and responsibility, money and friends. And by the time we were done, the entire issue of cleaning was totally lost in the chaos.
I'm totally convinced she planned it that way. My husband and I have decided it's a counterplot ability that comes pre-wired at birth. Get your parents sidetracked on non-issues by changing the argument, and you can pretty much get out of anything.
Now go ahead. Tell me you've never been the victim of this type of collusion. And then share with us the wonders of your amazing parenting skills because clearly you are a better parent than the rest of us who are still shaking from the after effects of such a conspiracy. CONSPIRACY, I tell you.

Hydrocodone has a high risk for abuse and severe, possibly fatal, breathing problems. The risk for harm is higher if you take the wrong dose/strength, or if you take it along with other drugs that might also affect breathing. Other medications can affect the removal of hydrocodone from your body, which may affect how hydrocodone works. Examples include azole antifungals (such as itraconazole, ketoconazole), macrolide antibiotics (such as erythromycin), rifamycins (such as rifabutin, rifampin), St. John's wort, drugs used to treat seizures (such as carbamazepine, phenytoin), among others. Be sure you know how to take hydrocodone and what other drugs you should avoid taking with it. (See also Drug Interactions section.) The risk for breathing problems and other side effects may be higher when you start this medication, after a dose increase, or when starting/stopping other medications that affect the removal of hydrocodone from your body. Get medical help right away if you notice unusual slow/shallow breathing.
Do not crush, chew, or dissolve this medication or the contents of the capsules. Also, do not drink alcohol or use any product that contains alcohol while taking this medication. Drinking alcohol with this medication or taking crushed, chewed, or dissolved forms of extended-release hydrocodone could cause a fatal overdose.
Before using this medication, women of childbearing age should talk with their doctor(s) about the risks and benefits. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or if you plan to become pregnant. During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when clearly needed. It may slightly increase the risk of birth defects if used during the first two months of pregnancy. Also, using it for a long time or in high doses near the expected delivery date may harm the unborn baby. To lessen the risk, take the smallest effective dose for the shortest possible time. Babies born to mothers who use this drug for a long time may develop severe (possibly fatal) withdrawal symptoms. Tell the doctor right away if you notice any symptoms in your newborn baby such as slow/shallow breathing, irritability, shaking, persistent crying, vomiting, diarrhea, poor feeding, or difficulty gaining weight.
Keep this medication in a safe place to prevent theft, misuse, or abuse. If a child accidentally swallows this drug, get medical help right away.
Who should not take Zohydro ER?Hydrocodone is used to help relieve severe ongoing pain. Hydrocodone belongs to a class of drugs known as narcotic (opiate) analgesics. It works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain.
Do not use the extended-release form of hydrocodone to relieve pain that is mild or that will go away in a few days. This medication is not for occasional ("as needed") use.
See also Warning section.
Read the Medication Guide and, if available, the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start taking hydrocodone and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Take this medication on a regular schedule as directed by your doctor, not as needed for sudden (breakthrough) pain. Take this medication by mouth as directed by your doctor, usually every 12 hours. You may take this drug with or without food. If you have nausea, it may help to take this drug with food. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about other ways to decrease nausea (such as lying down for 1 to 2 hours with as little head movement as possible).
Swallow the capsules whole. Do not crush, chew, or dissolve the capsules. Doing so can release all of the drug at once, increasing the risk of side effects.
The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Do not increase your dose or use this drug more often or for longer than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and your risk of side effects will increase. Properly stop the medication when so directed.
Pain medications work best if they are used as the first signs of pain occur. If you wait until the pain has worsened, the medication may not work as well.
Before you start taking this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist if you should stop or change the dose of your other narcotic medication(s). For added pain relief, your doctor may direct you to also take quick-acting narcotic or non-narcotic pain medications (such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen). Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions about using hydrocodone safely with other drugs.
This medication may cause withdrawal reactions, especially if it has been used regularly for a long time or in high doses. In such cases, withdrawal symptoms (such as restlessness, watering eyes, runny nose, nausea, sweating, muscle aches) may occur if you suddenly stop using this medication. To prevent withdrawal reactions, your doctor may reduce your dose gradually. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more details, and report any withdrawal reactions right away.
When this medication is used for a long time, it may not work as well. Talk with your doctor if this medication stops working well.
Along with its benefits, this medication may rarely cause abnormal drug-seeking behavior (addiction). This risk may be increased if you have abused alcohol or drugs in the past. Take this medication exactly as prescribed to lessen the risk of addiction.
Tell your doctor if your pain persists or worsens.
Nausea, vomiting, constipation, lightheadedness, dizziness, or drowsiness may occur. Some of these side effects may decrease after you have been using this medication for a while. If any of these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
To prevent constipation, eat a diet adequate in fiber, drink plenty of water, and exercise. Consult your pharmacist for help in selecting a laxative (such as a stimulant type with stool softener).
To reduce the risk of dizziness and lightheadedness, get up slowly when rising from a sitting or lying position.
Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: mental/mood changes (such as agitation, confusion, hallucinations), stomach/abdominal pain, difficulty urinating.
Get medical help right away if you have any very serious side effects, including: fainting, seizure, slow/shallow breathing, unusual drowsiness/difficulty waking up.
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
In the US -
Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
In Canada - Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to Health Canada at 1-866-234-2345.
Before taking hydrocodone, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to hydromorphone; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: brain disorders (such as head injury, tumor, seizures), breathing problems (such as asthma, sleep apnea, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease-COPD), gallbladder disease, kidney disease, liver disease, mental/mood disorders (such as confusion, depression, thoughts of suicide), personal or family history of regular use/abuse of drugs/alcohol, stomach/intestinal problems (such as blockage, constipation, diarrhea due to infection, paralytic ileus), disease of the pancreas (pancreatitis), difficulty urinating (such as due to enlarged prostate).
This drug may make you dizzy or drowsy. Do not drive, use machinery, or do any activity that requires alertness until you are sure you can perform such activities safely. Avoid alcoholic beverages.
Older adults may be more sensitive to the side effects of this drug, especially confusion, dizziness, drowsiness, slow/shallow breathing.
During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when clearly needed. It may harm an unborn baby. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. (See also Warning section.)
This drug passes into breast milk and may rarely have undesirable effects on a nursing infant. Tell the doctor right away if your baby develops unusual sleepiness, difficulty feeding, or trouble breathing. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
Drug interactions may change how your medications work or increase your risk for serious side effects. This document does not contain all possible drug interactions. Keep a list of all the products you use (including prescription/nonprescription drugs and herbal products) and share it with your doctor and pharmacist. Do not start, stop, or change the dosage of any medicines without your doctor's approval.
Some products that may interact with this drug include: certain pain medications (mixed narcotic agonist-antagonists such as pentazocine, nalbuphine, butorphanol), narcotic antagonists (such as naltrexone), products that contain alcohol (such as cough-and-cold syrups).
The risk of serious side effects (such as slow/shallow breathing, severe drowsiness/dizziness) may be increased if this medication is taken with other products that may also affect breathing or cause drowsiness. Therefore, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking other products such as alcohol, drugs for sleep or anxiety (such as alprazolam, diazepam, zolpidem), muscle relaxants, and other narcotic pain relievers (such as codeine, hydromorphone).
Check the labels on all your medicines (such as allergy or cough-and-cold products) because they may contain ingredients that cause drowsiness. Ask your pharmacist about using those products safely.
This medication may interfere with certain laboratory tests (including amylase/lipase levels), possibly causing false test results. Make sure laboratory personnel and all your doctors know you use this drug.
If overdose is suspected, contact a poison control center or emergency room immediately. US residents can call their local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222. Canada residents can call a provincial poison control center. Symptoms of overdose may include: slow breathing, slow heartbeat, loss of consciousness.
Do not share this medication with others. It is against the law.
This medication has been prescribed for your current condition only. Do not use it later for another condition unless your doctor directs you to do so. A different medication may be necessary in that case.
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.
Store at room temperature away from light and moisture. Do not store in the bathroom. Keep all medications away from children and pets.
Properly discard this product when it is expired or no longer needed. Read the Medication Guide for details. To discard this medication, the FDA recommends flushing down the toilet or pouring into a drain. However, consult your pharmacist or local waste disposal company.

It's enough to make you shudder. Seismologists predict there is a 99 percent probability that California will experience an earthquake measuring 6.7 on the Richter scale during the next 30 years. An even larger quake—of 7.0 magnitude—is 94 percent certain. But even those mighty temblors would pale next to "the big one," the moniker for a magnitude 8.0 or greater quake on the San Andreas Fault. SDSU professor and seismologist Kim Olsen has created a computer-generated model of this monster quake in order to project its capacity for destruction. On the next episode of "SDSU Insider," airing Sept. 22 at 12:30 p.m. on KPBS, Olsen unveils the simulation, which shows strong shaking in the San Bernardino, Ventura and Los Angeles basins. The strongest ground movements persist for about one minute in Los Angeles, but begin to subside as the waves move toward San Diego. "San Diego is actually located in a fairly fortunate position for such an earthquake (on the San Andreas Fault)," Olsen said. "The visualization shows relatively minor, roller-coaster-like shaking that would mostly be felt in the high rises downtown."
Read more about the latest SDSU Insider, which also features stories on Aztec sculptor Jess Dominguez and cutting-edge SDSU research to reverse the damage caused by heart attacks.

After a little bit of a hiatus we get back to our countdown of the top 11 players to play for the Fighting Irish over the last 11 years. Checking in at #3 is the last truly dominant offensive lineman to play for Notre Dame in the last decade – Jeff Faine.
Jeff Faine Notre Dame career summary
Faine came to Notre Dame as a heralded recruit out of Florida after earning USA Today First Team All American honors after his senior season at Seminole High School. Despite the accolades Faine red-shirted his freshman season at Notre Dame as he learned behind then starting center John Merandi. By his sophomore season though, Merandi had graduated and Faine stepped into his starting role – a position he would not let go of until he moved on to the NFL.
Over the course of the next three seasons, Faine started every game at center for the Irish anchoring the Notre Dame offensive line for three seasons. As a sophomore, Faine was part of an offensive line that paved the way for a 380 yard rushing effort including four rushing touchdowns against Boston College. For the season, Notre Dame ranked 14th in the nation in rushing despite not having a single running back top 700 yards on the season.
As a junior, Faine again led the Irsih offensive line although the offense struggled in Bob Davie's final season at Notre Dame. Despite an ineffective passing game, the Irish ranked 30th nationally running the football despite quarterback Carlyle Holiday being the leading rusher.
In 2002, the Notre Dame offense again struggled at times, but Faine anchored a line that paved the way for Ryan Grant's 1,000 yard season. Against Air Force the Irish ground attack racked up 335 yards and added another 249 yards against Stanford. Faine was the standout of the Irish line in 2002 earning 2nd team All American honors from the AP and first team honors from both ESPN and Sporting News.
Faine had a 5th year of eligibility remaining in 2003, but he was projected as a first round pick and decided against coming back for a final season.
Why Jeff Faine is on the countdown
Whenever there is a new offensive line recruit that comes along and is described as nasty or mean they are immediately compared to Faine and that's because Faine was head and shoulders above the other offensive linemen to pass through Notre Dame over the last 11 years. There was really only one other lineman we even considered on this list and that was Ryan Harris. There's been a few solid linemen but Faine was the only one to become a first round draft pick. In fact, Faine was only one of two players in the last 11 years to be selected in the first round regardless of position – the other being Brady Quinn.
Some may think that Faine is ranked a bit too high on this list, but unlike some other positions where there have been multiple great players to pass through Notre Dame over the last 11 years, Faine really stands out along the offensive line. Part of the problem with Notre Dame football in general over this time period has been ineffective offensive line play and a lack of players like Faine.
If Notre Dame had a few more linemen of Faine's caliber, maybe the Irish wouldn't have had four coaches over the last 11 years.
Notable performances, records & awards at Notre Dame
- AP 2nd Team All-American in 2002
- ESPN and Sporting News 1st Team All American in 2002
- Finalist for Remington Award in 2002
- Semi-finalist for Lombardi Award in 2002
- USA Today All American coming out of high school
- Started all 36 games for Notre Dame from 2000-2002
- One of only two Notre Dame players to be 1st round draft picks from 2000-2011
Post Notre Dame career
After being a first round pick of the Cleveland Browns in the 2003 NFL Draft, he spent three seasons in Cleveland before being traded to the New Orleans Saints during the 2006 NFL Draft. Faine spent the next two seasons in New Orleans where he earned a Pro Bowl Alternate selection following the 2007 season.
In 2008 Faine signed as a free agent with the Tampa Bay Bucs where he has played the past three seasons while serving as an offensive captain for the team.
Faine's pro career hasn't quite lived up to the expectations of a first round pick, but he has had a solid career and looks to have a place in the league for the next several years. With the Bucs as an up and coming team led by the young and promising Josh Freeman at quarterback, Faine has a chance for some successful seasons in Tampa.

Yeah, Jeff is one tough hombre. 1st stop Cleveland…what a shame. Unfortunately, Cleveland has been one of the arm pits of the NFL lately. Too bad Brady wanted to go there. Jeff is Mr. Nasty and a joy to watch. I'm sure he will have continued success at Tampa. Excellent pick for #3.
C-Dog commented on July 21st, 2011 at 6:10 am
I forgot about Jeff Faine. But Frank, your stats do not lie. You got this one right. Also, a great thought for incoming linemen. After Willingham and Weis, demphsizing the line, Kelly is brining back the respect to the line(s). We will have more Jeff Faine's in the next few years.
Shazamrock commented on July 21st, 2011 at 7:15 am
The one thing that I remember most about Faine is how he went full out on every play until the whistle blew. Even at that, there were many times he had to be restrained by teammates after the play had ended.
He had his fair share penilties for roughness and hitting after the whistle
Those were always penilties that I, as a fan, could live with. It sent a message that we weren't going to be bullied, pushed around, or intimidated.
Jeff Faine never took a play off. Never backed down, never quit.[Reply]

I see where ND has persuaded Michigan to allow Big East Refs for their night game at the big house.
I have seen enough college football to know that the home team will get a call or two by the Ref's. That's to be exspected to some extent.
Most officiting crews are bright enough to not be openly blatent about farvoritism toward the home team. But the last time ND played at Michigan, the calls made by the home town ref's was down right insulting to the intelligents' of anyone who was watching. Those refs were determined to make calls that not only gave Michigan an advsantage, but all but guarantee a Michigan victory. Over the years it got so bad that every time ND went into Michigan, everyone wondered just how bad the screw-job would be. We all came to exspect nothing less. It was a joke![Reply]

Kind of off the subject, but I was wondering if you guys could tell me which is a better site to subscribe to…Irisheyes or Irishillustrated. I love this site and reading your comments and you guys are all much more informed then me. Just wondering if anyone out there would have a preference. Thanks!
Go Irish!!!

Like leave it to Beaver? JK.
They are both good. Subscribe to one for a year… then the other, then decide which one you like.
A clear modus vivendi.

Everyone is so hard on the Beaver. Thank you very much. I think I'll try that.

#2 Brady Quinn
#1 Golden Tate[Reply]
ted commented on July 23rd, 2011 at 1:58 am
if our d picks up where we left off last year, h. smith could easily be first team all-american. i don't think he gets enough credit.
in the last four games, h.smith had 5 picks! averaged over a season that is over 15 interceptions and an ncaa all-time record.
his progress since weis left has been remarkable. it is prime example of how important coaching is in college football.
JC replied on July 23rd, 2011 at 11:58 pm
I think your spot on with Harrison and the numbers will equate for him rapidly this year.
Further, after BK's bailout of 4-5 to 8-5 last year should instill full confidence in the coaching staff. It certainly has been a long time since we have had a well rounded BCS Caliber Head Coach.
Hey Bleed, get ready to take a bow for the #1 prediction
……..Brady Quinn.[Reply]

I'm pumped that you're interested in Live More Weigh Less and I'll make sure to send you all the deets when enrollment opens. Until then, we're going to have a blast together. You're going to get free weekly coaching straight to your inbox to help you get a life and body you love.
If you want to learn more about Live More Weigh Less you can view the program breakdown below. I've also included my e-book "If you know what to do but just aren't doing it" and instant access to my weekly coaching.
The 6 modules will be released one by one every Monday. Each module includes between 3 and 6 teaching audios that you can stream or download on your computer, smartphone or tablet. I invite you to dive into the course material when it's most convenient for you during the week. That may mean every Tuesday night at home after work, during your morning run, at a café in the middle of the day, on your commute or while you're dropping your kids off at school. This program is meant to get you off your couch and into the world so I wanted to make sure you had a portable and flexible program to support your new lifestyle.
In addition to the downloadable teaching modules, you will get a ton of LIVE personal support from me. Want to know why you can't stop eating cookies every night? Or how to get your mother to stop sending you NY Times weight loss articles? Every week (except week #4, adventure week), we'll meet as a group on the phone where you have the opportunity to receive personal coaching from me to help you integrate the curriculum into your unique life, uncover major blocks and make sure what you're learning sticks.
We can't do this alone. The women who take Live More Weigh Less are some of the smartest, most driven, beautiful women I've ever met. They are wise, honest and incredibly supportive. Many women have come out with lifelong friends that they nurtured through the members only forum.
You'll have 24/7 access to your private Live More Weigh Less Members Only Site to connect with the other women in the program, post your goals and progress and reach out for support. All participants will also have the option of connecting with a partner to be your personal cheerleader and confidante for the program.
I know that the best way to make lasting changes in your life and body is to spend time reflecting on how the course applies to your specific life. Your LMWL journal is full of personal inquiry exercises, vision prompting, desire setting and plain old room to write. It also included weekly check-ins and benchmarks to help you stay on track. You're going to love this book and I bet it will be a lifelong keepsake.
In LMWL we don't workout, we move. We don't move for calorie burning or flat abs (though you probably will shrink your tummy), we move for fun, clarity, energy and happiness. This guide will help you determine the perfect program for you without needing to have a gym membership.
You'll have 2 opportunities during the program to really focus on integrating all of the teachings during your personally curated adventure and retreat.
The first will happen during Week Four which is Adventure Week. There is no new coaching this week, nor live group coaching. Your mission is to create the most fun, adventurous week you can imagine, which I will help you curate during the first 3 weeks. This is the time to put everything you've learned into practice and really experience the good life.
The second will happen on the last week of the program, Week Eight which is Retreat Week. There will be no new coaching this week, but we will have an end-of-program tele-celebration. Your mission for this week is to create the most nurturing, relaxing week you can dream of. After seven weeks of committing to living more, you are going to deserve some delicious downtime.
No one's perfect, and we all fall off the wagon once in a while. That's why I've decided that every women who signs up for Live More Weigh Less will receive a lifetime membership to the program. This means that you will have unlimited access to the materials for as long as I am running the program and can join us year after year.
As soon as you sign up, you'll receive a 4-part mini course to help you start Living More and Weighing Less right away.
The strategies I teach in Live More Weigh Less have worked for tons of women, you can read their stories below, and it worked for me.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to email@example.com.
All my love,

Other names | Liza Duran |

Jennifer Welles was an American porn star chiefly active in the soft- and hardcore genres of the 1970s, although she began her acting career in the late 1960s in the sexploitation genre.
Welles was also a fetish model for such magazines as Bizarre. Using the alias "Liza Duran," she appeared in a variety of softcore sexploitation and "roughie" grindhouse films produced in New York. Some of these include: Sex by Advertisement (1967), Career Bed, Submission, and This Sporting House directed by Henri Pachard (all from 1969).
Welles appeared in many films, the best known being Inside Jennifer Welles (1977), which she is also credited with having directed (although the film was actually anonymously directed by sex-exploitation veteran Joseph W. Sarno).[citation needed] She also appeared in some mainstream films, most notably The Groove Tube opposite Chevy Chase.
Welles won the Erotica Award for Best Actress in 1977 for the film Little Orphan Sammy, and was the editor of Eros, The Magazine of Decadent Sophistication, in that same year.

The new year is coming fast, and with it, the Detroit Auto Show. The new generation of the Bavarian X3 model is expected to make the official debut at the Auto Show in Detroit, an event scheduled for early 2010. New generation of BMW X3 crossover, already spied many times in testing, will make its official debut in front of the American public.
Unofficial sources have confirmed that the X3′s second generation will be introduced, world premiere, in the next year edition of the Detroit Auto Show. At present, the future BMW X3 is the subject of speculation more common in the international press. It seems that X3 will leave the current segment of the market, its place following to be taken by future X1.
The current crossover will increase in size, closing more than those of the old generation X5. In these conditions, future X3 is expected to measure 4.65 meters long, 1.85 meters wide and 1.68 meters high, that is exactly the premises of a spacious cabin.

I had two periods after that and got 5
negative tests ( 3 hpts + 2 blood tests)
But on the day we met i got nausea
Also i hear sound of water from my belly sometimes!
Hi radhika
I already helped you on this issue recently - click here: http://www.empowher.com/community/ask/help-pregnancy-all-over-my-mind-ca...
You have an obsession that you are pregnant and you are not - you get your periods and you don't have sex.
All we can do is tell you that you DO need to see a doctor about your anxiety. You keep saying that you know you cannot be pregnant but you are showing a deep anxiety that you are, even showing symptoms like a larger belly and swollen legs. If there is any chance that you could have had sex and are not saying it, you have to see a doctor but since all your pregnancy tests are negative and you say you never had sex or took your clothes off, then you can't be and this is an anxiety issue for you, not an issue of pregnancy.
There seems to be no way to convince you otherwise and I do think you need some professional guidance in this area so this panic will stop - it's not a healthy way to live. Go to a clinic like Planned Parenthood, they can help you there.
