Brian Whitaker writes: The United Nations will hold a three-day meeting in New York next month in a move towards ending the worldwide Aids epidemic by 2030. But preparations for the meeting were thrown into disarray last week when Egypt blocked 11 gay and transgender advocacy groups from attending.
In a letter to the UN, Egypt gave no reason for objecting to the groups' participation but said it was acting on behalf of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), which represents 57 predominantly Muslim countries.
The UN responded by emphasising the need for "nongovernmental organisations working on the ground" to contribute to the discussion, and to hear "the voices of people living with HIV and people most affected by the epidemic, including women and girls, sex workers, people who use drugs, gay men and other men who have sex with men and transgender people".
Samantha Power, the American ambassador to the UN, also complained about the blocking action by Egypt and the OIC. "Given that transgender people are 49 times more likely to be living with HIV than the general population, their exclusion from the high-level meeting will only impede global progress in combating the HIV/Aids pandemic," she said.
It is the second time in less than two months that something of this kind has happened at the UN. In March, Saudi Arabia – where the OIC has its headquarters – objected to a report from Juan Méndez, the UN special rapporteur on torture, who had been asked to consider how the prohibition of torture in international law could be applied "to the unique experiences of women, girls, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex persons".

With Iran-backed conversions, Shiites gain ground in Africa
The Wall Street Journal reports: Walking from classroom to classroom at the Ahl ul Bayt Linguistic Center, which teaches Arabic and Islam, director Ahmed Tijani pointed at his students, a mixture of teens and young adults.
"This one is Shiite, these ones are also Shiite," he said. "And these ones, they are still Sunni."
Mr. Tijani, whose office in the Cameroonian capital is decorated with an Iranian flag and a poster of Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was also once a Sunni Muslim. Then he made the life-changing choice of enrolling at a similar Iranian-funded academy in the coastal city of Douala.
Since converting to Shiite Islam a decade ago, the 39-year-old educator has risen through the ranks, establishing this school in Yaoundé and even visiting Iran on a government-sponsored trip in 2012.
"There is a big difference between Shiite Islam and Sunni Islam," he said. "Only the Shiites are spreading the truth."
Such sectarian talk used to be exceedingly rare in much of Africa. So were actual Shiites. The few who could be found in Africa belonged to immigrant communities from Lebanon or the Indian subcontinent. Now, parts of the continent's Sunni Muslim heartland are living through the biggest wave of Sunni-to-Shiite conversions since many Sunni tribes of southern Iraq adopted Shiism in the 19th century.
Hard figures are difficult to come by. But in Nigeria alone, Africa's most populous nation, some 12% of its 90-million-strong Muslim population have identified themselves as Shiite in a recent survey by the Pew Research Center, up from virtually zero in 1980. The number is 21% for the Muslims of Chad, 20% for Tanzania, and 8% for Ghana, according to the survey.
That demographic change is occurring just as the Muslim world becomes increasingly polarized along sectarian lines, with Saudi Arabia, a self-proclaimed standard-bearer of the Sunni cause, engaged in proxy struggles from Yemen to Syria to Bahrain against a rival axis led by Iran's Shiite theocracy.
"The core of the Saudi-Iranian confrontation over power and territory is in the Middle East. But West African Shiites are of symbolic value to Iran, for it to be able to say that its vision of Islam is expanding rather than shrinking. They give Iran more of a claim that they're able to speak for Muslims in the whole world," said Vali Nasr, dean of the School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University and author of a book on the Shiite revival.

Muslim leaders wage theological battle, stoking ISIS' anger
The New York Times reports: As the military and political battle against the Islamic State escalates, Muslim imams and scholars in the West are fighting on another front — through theology.
Imam Suhaib Webb, a Muslim leader in Washington, has held live monthly video chats to refute the religious claims of the Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL. In a dig at the extremists, he broadcast from ice cream parlors and called his talks "ISIS and ice cream."
Sheikh Hamza Yusuf, an American Muslim scholar based in Berkeley, Calif., has pleaded with Muslims not to be deceived by the "stupid young boys" of the Islamic State. Millions have watched excerpts from his sermon titled "The Crisis of ISIS," in which he wept as he asked God not to blame other Muslims "for what these fools amongst us do."
It is a religious rumble that barely makes headlines in the secular West since it is carried out at mosques and Islamic conferences and over social media.
The Islamic State, however, has taken notice.
The group recently threatened the lives of 11 Muslim imams and scholars in the West, calling them "apostates" who should be killed. The recent issue of the Islamic State's online propaganda magazine, Dabiq, called them "obligatory targets," and it said that supporters should use any weapons on hand to "make an example of them."
The danger is real enough that the F.B.I. has contacted some of those named in the Islamic State's magazine "to assist them in taking proper steps to ensure their safety," said Andrew Ames, a spokesman for the F.B.I.'s field office in Washington. [Continue reading…]
The time has come for a 'Sexual Spring' in the Arab world
Kacem El Ghazzali writes: When we say that nowadays to call for sexual freedom in Arab and Muslim societies is more dangerous than the demand to topple monarchies or dictatorial regimes, we are not playing with metaphor or attempting to gain sympathy. We are stating a bitter and painful fact of the reality in which we are living.
In Arab and Muslim milieus, sex is considered a means and not an end, hedged by many prickly restrictions that make it an objectionable matter and synonymous with sin. Its function within marriage is confined to procreation and nothing else, and all sexual activity outside the institution of marriage is banned legally and rejected socially. Innocent children born out of wedlock are socially rejected and considered foundlings.
This situation cannot be said to be characteristic of Arab societies only, but we experience these miseries in far darker and more intense ways than in other countries. This is especially so because of the dominance of machismo, which considers a man's sexual adventures as heroics worthy of pride, while a woman who dares to give in to her sexual desires is destined to be killed — or at best beaten and expelled from home — because she has brought dishonor upon her family. [Continue reading…]
A few miles from San Bernardino, a Muslim prom queen reigns
The New York Times reports: In the days after the December terrorist attack in San Bernardino, Calif., when pictures of the hijab-wearing suspect filled television screens and newspapers, Zarifeh Shalabi's mother and aunts stayed at home.
With their home just a few miles from the scene of the attack that left 14 dead, they worried about an anti-Muslim backlash. When they went shopping, Zarifeh, 17, said, other mothers pulled their children away when they saw the women wearing head scarves.
"We were more afraid that someone was going to hurt us," Zarifeh said.
But this month, Zarifeh received the ultimate symbol of teenage acceptance: She was crowned prom queen after her non-Muslim friends campaigned for her by wearing hijabs in solidarity.
"We saw it as a chance to do something good, to represent something good," said a friend, Sarahi Sanchez, who like Zarifeh is one of a few dozen peer mentors at Summit High School. "This was a way to prove we don't have problems with bullying or racism."
Zarifeh said her win "proved that not all Muslims are something to worry about." [Continue reading…]
Islam is reshaping Europe
Robert Kaplan writes: Orientalism, through which one culture appropriated and dominated another, is slowly evaporating in a world of cosmopolitan interactions and comparative studies, as [Edward] Said intuited it might. Europe has responded by artificially reconstructing national-cultural identities on the extreme right and left, to counter the threat from the civilization it once dominated.
Although the idea of an end to history — with all its ethnic and territorial disputes — turns out to have been a fantasy, this realization is no excuse for a retreat into nationalism. The cultural purity that Europe craves in the face of the Muslim-refugee influx is simply impossible in a world of increasing human interactions.
"The West," if it does have a meaning beyond geography, manifests a spirit of ever more inclusive liberalism. Just as in the 19th century there was no going back to feudalism, there is no going back now to nationalism, not without courting disaster. [Continue reading…]
Islam's forgotten bohemians
Nile Green writes: Every year, thousands of festivals around the tombs of Sufi saints in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh demonstrate the vitality of Sufi poetry. Dotted throughout town and countryside, the shrines where these saints are buried still form the focus for the spiritual lives of tens of millions of Muslims. Their doors and rituals are open to people of any religious background; as a result, Sufi shrines in India still play an important role in the religious life of many Hindus and Sikhs. The work of the great Baba Farid, a 13th-century Punjab Sufi poet, also exemplifies this long history of religious co-existence, as his poems form the oldest parts of the Sikh scriptures.
Farid's poems are still recited in Sikh temples around the world. In one of the verses from his Adi Granth (the sacred scripture or 'First Book' of Sikhism), Farid declares in rustic and homely Punjabi:
Ap li-ay lar la-ay dar darves say.
Translation: Those tied to Truth's robe are true tramps on the doorstep.
The seeker after Truth must become a wandering beggar. The word Farid uses is darves, or 'dervish' – literally, a vagrant who goes from door to door. Read again that alliterative line of Punjabi: Ap li-ay lar la-ay dar darves say. It has the simple rhythm of repetition, the call of love's beggar traipsing from house to house.
What the German philosopher Max Weber described as the disenchantment of the world, modernity's discrediting of the supernatural and magical, has not been good for these beggars, these mystical troubadours, especially among the Muslim middle classes. Their pilgrimage places, however, retain mass appeal, especially among the large populations of poor and uneducated people. That is why fundamentalists, whether the Pakistani Taliban, the Saudi government or ISIS, have destroyed so many Sufi shrines and places of pilgrimage. The poetry sung at those places celebrates and advances an Islam that rejects political power, an Islam incompatible with the ambitions of religious fundamentalism. It is an Islam antithetical to political Islam, which sees political power as the foundation of religion. Although not all forms of Sufi Islam are non-political, the Sufism of the dervishes renounced political power as the most significant impediment on the long road to their divine beloved. It is a spirit of Islam still very much alive. [Continue reading…]
Why ISIS hates the Sufis and blows up their shrines
The soul that denies true love as its motto
Were better unborn; its existence is dishonour.
So be drunk with love, for love is all there is.
Unless you deal with love, the way to God is closed.
These words were among the hundreds of poems written by Rumi, the 13th-century Sufi apostle of love. Such was Rumi's status in previous centuries that his epic Masnavi was called 'the Quran in Persian'. For those who have read his verse, it's hard to understand how anyone could despise the beauty of Sufi Islam. Considering that the Sufis always presented themselves as the loyal heirs of the Prophet Mohammad, it's even harder to understand why Muslims should despise them. And yet over the past century, wave after wave of Muslim reform and renewal movements have rejected almost every aspect of Sufi Islam. The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) – whose franchises have sentenced Sufis to death in Syria and bulldozed their shrines in Libya – is only the latest of these anti-Sufis.
Here are a few reasons. [Continue reading…]
How politics has poisoned Islam
Mustafa Akyol writes: We Muslims like to believe that ours is "a religion of peace," but today Islam looks more like a religion of conflict and bloodshed. From the civil wars in Syria, Iraq and Yemen to internal tensions in Lebanon and Bahrain, to the dangerous rivalry between Iran and Saudi Arabia, the Middle East is plagued by intra-Muslim strife that seems to go back to the ancient Sunni-Shiite rivalry.
Religion is not actually at the heart of these conflicts — invariably, politics is to blame. But the misuse of Islam and its history makes these political conflicts much worse as parties, governments and militias claim that they are fighting not over power or territory but on behalf of God. And when enemies are viewed as heretics rather than just opponents, peace becomes much harder to achieve.
This conflation of religion and politics poisons Islam itself, too, by overshadowing all the religion's theological and moral teachings. The Quran's emphasis on humility and compassion is sidelined by the arrogance and aggressiveness of conflicting groups. [Continue reading…]
President Obama's remarks at the Islamic Society of Baltimore on February 3
President Obama said: This is a moment when, as Americans, we have to truly listen to each other and learn from each other. And I believe it has to begin with a common understanding of some basic facts. And I express these facts, although they'd be obvious to many of the people in this place, because, unfortunately, it's not facts that are communicated on a regular basis through our media.
So let's start with this fact: For more than a thousand years, people have been drawn to Islam's message of peace. And the very word itself, Islam, comes from salam — peace. The standard greeting is as-salamu alaykum — peace be upon you. And like so many faiths, Islam is rooted in a commitment to compassion and mercy and justice and charity. Whoever wants to enter paradise, the Prophet Muhammad taught, "let him treat people the way he would love to be treated." (Applause.) For Christians like myself, I'm assuming that sounds familiar. (Laughter.)
The world's 1.6 billion Muslims are as diverse as humanity itself. They are Arabs and Africans. They're from Latin America to Southeast Asia; Brazilians, Nigerians, Bangladeshis, Indonesians. They are white and brown and black. There's a large African American Muslim community. That diversity is represented here today. A 14-year-old boy in Texas who's Muslim spoke for many when he wrote to me and said, "We just want to live in peace."
Here's another fact: Islam has always been part of America. Starting in colonial times, many of the slaves brought here from Africa were Muslim. And even in their bondage, some kept their faith alive. A few even won their freedom and became known to many Americans. And when enshrining the freedom of religion in our Constitution and our Bill of Rights, our Founders meant what they said when they said it applied to all religions.
Back then, Muslims were often called Mahometans. And Thomas Jefferson explained that the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom he wrote was designed to protect all faiths — and I'm quoting Thomas Jefferson now — "the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and the Mahometan." (Applause.)
Jefferson and John Adams had their own copies of the Koran. Benjamin Franklin wrote that "even if the Mufti of Constantinople were to send a missionary to preach to us, he would find a pulpit at his service." (Applause.) So this is not a new thing. [Continue reading…]
The New York Times reports: For Mr. Obama, the remarks were also an admission of how little progress has been made since the speech in Cairo [in 2009], where he called for "a sustained effort to listen to each other, to learn from each other, to respect one another, and to seek common ground." In his speech on Wednesday, he suggested that his hopes for a reconciliation had been dashed, but he called on all Americans to stick by the country's founding ideals.
Muslims in the audience hailed the address.
"I think it was one of the best speeches he's ever given," said Representative André Carson, an Indiana Democrat. Representative Keith Ellison, a Minnesota Democrat, said the speech "hit me in the heart" and was a vital antidote to growing intolerance.
"I have a 19-year-old daughter who is a Muslim and wants to contribute to her nation, and it bugs me that someone who says he wants to be president would want to exclude her," Mr. Ellison said.
But Morton Klein, president of the Zionist Organization of America, one of the country's oldest and largest pro-Israel organizations, denounced Mr. Obama for visiting a mosque whose leaders, Mr. Klein said, have among other issues criticized Israeli military actions. "Going to such a mosque only encourages radical Muslims to harm Americans," Mr. Klein said. [Continue reading…]
Muslim leaders attend summit on protecting non-Muslims in their midst
Religion News Service reports: Hundreds of Muslim scholars will meet in Morocco next week to reassert the rights of non-Muslims living among them as Christians and other religious minorities flee extremism across the Middle East for safety and freedom elsewhere.
In these times, Muslims must affirm their tradition's true teachings on tolerance, said Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, co-founder of Zaytuna College, the first Muslim liberal arts college in the U.S. The summit meeting, expected to attract more than 300 Muslim religious leaders, will hark back to the Charter of Medina, in which the Prophet Muhammad enumerated the rights of non-Muslims 1,400 years ago.
"The prophet was religiously persecuted, so he knew firsthand what it was to experience religious persecution," said Yusuf, speaking on a pre-conference media call Thursday (Jan 21). "His religion ensured the rights of religious minorities," and Islamic history reveals a generally strong record of tolerance. [Continue reading…]
Ten ways on how not to think about the Iran/Saudi conflict
Omid Safi writes: In order to understand this conflict, do not start with Sunni/Shi'a seventh century succession disputes to Prophet. This is a modern dispute, not one whose answers you are going to find in pre-modern books of religious history and theology. Think about how absurd it would be if we were discussing a political conflict between the U.S. and Russia, and instead of having political scientists we brought on people to talk about the historical genesis of the Greek Orthodox Church.
Probably the most succinct elaboration of this point came from Marc Lynch:
"The idea of an unending, primordial conflict between Sunnis and Shiites explains little about the ebbs and flows of regional politics. This is not a resurgence of a 1,400-year-old conflict."
The attempt to explain the Iranian/Saudi conflict, or for that matter every Middle Eastern conflict, in purely religious terms is part of an ongoing Orientalist imagination that depicts these societies as ancient, unchanging, un-modern societies where religion is the sole determining factor (allegedly unlike an imagined "us," who have managed to become modern and secular.) Watch this four-part series by the late, great Edward Said on how Orientalism operates (skip the introduction):
There is no disputing that religion is a factor in understanding the Middle East. In some conflicts, it might even be a primary factor. But it is never, ever the only factor. Most often it is the other factors (history, economics, ideology, demographics) that are much more important.
Religion, religious traditions, and human societies never stay static and unchanging. There is no such thing as an eternal, unchanging human tradition. [Continue reading…]
John Kerry won't call the Islamic State by its name anymore. Why that's not a good idea.
Shadi Hamid and Will McCants write: Refusing to utter the Islamic State's name … needlessly complicates the religious fight to discredit the organization. Muslims understandably feel that their religion is being hijacked. But there's something odd about an American president or Secretary of State opining on what is and isn't legitimately Islamic. Shouldn't it go without saying that a murderous extremist group isn't what Muslims are all about?
There is a place for Muslim apologetics — from Muslims. This is precisely what a group of prominent British figures did when they attempted to rebrand the Islamic State as "the Un-Islamic State."
But when non-Muslim officials insert themselves into this debate, it sets a negative precedent. It lends itself easily to broader pronouncements on who the good, "moderate" Muslims are, in contrast to the "bad guys," a category which presumably could include anyone who falls on the Islamist side of the spectrum, regardless of whether they're actually "extreme."
And when the West co-opts Muslim talking points about the "true" Islam, it makes it harder for Muslims in the Arab world to make the same claim. Western governments are widely loathed and lack credibility in the region, even when they take care to explain their policies. A 2006 study suggested Arab students' views of American policy "worsened slightly" the longer they listened to U.S.-sponsored Radio Sawa and al-Hurra TV. When Western officials repeat religious criticisms of the Islamic State, they make it easier for the group's sympathizers to dismiss the criticisms as mere imperial dictation. [Continue reading…]
Some regular readers here may have noticed that in headlines (the one above being an exception), I have stuck with ISIS, in spite of its official name change and the ongoing debate among outsiders over which is the most appropriate label. My choice has nothing to do with that debate. It's based instead on the matter of usage.
Whichever happens to be the most commonly used label is "correct" by that virtue alone. That's why even though ISIS is actually an ambiguous term, you will rarely find yourself in a conversation during which you'll be asked to clarify whether you're talking about the terrorist organization, ISIS, or the Egyptian goddess, Isis.
When it comes to determining who's saying what, where, Google Trends is an indispensable tool.
New York's forgotten mosque
Wilson Fache writes: New York City is well known for its numerous ethnic quarters, like the tourist-packed Little Italy or the oddly authentic Chinatown. Far less well known however is a small neighbourhood that locals used to call "Little Syria".
From the 19th to the first half of the 20th century, that enclave was the economic and cultural centre of the Arab diaspora in the US; that is before it was demolished in order to build a tunnel and then later, in the sixties, the World Trade Centre.
These few blocks were home to a large number of immigrants mainly coming from what was then known as "Greater Syria" (Bilad al-Sham), a region ruled by the Ottoman Empire that nowadays includes Syria as well as Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, the occupied Palestinian territories and a part of southern Turkey.
Civic associations like the Washington Street Historical Society have been advocating for years to raise awareness about the largely unknown quarter and preserve the few buildings that are left, such as St. George's Syrian Catholic Church, which is located on Washington street.
For many years is was assumed that the neighbourhood was only ever inhabited by Christians. Since there was no record of a place of worship dedicated to another faith, it was assumed there had never been one. Then a few months ago, a professor at the University of Colorado Denver doing research on early Islam in the US came across an article entitled "Mohammedans now have a place of worship here".

Reviews From Guests
Paola and Daniele welcomed us with open arms! Extremely nice hosts, easy to communicate with and willing to spend time giving advice on where to visit and where to eat. The house is beautiful and immaculate --almost looks newly remodeled and tastefully decorated. The beds are comfortable and the shower good as well. Fully functional kitchen and washer for clothes. Area is extremely quite and very close to the city walls of Lucca by car. We also used as a base for a day trip to Cinque Terre and departed on a morning trip to Pisa. I would imagine would also be a good base for Florence if you didn't mind a bit of driving. House is gated so felt very safe. Would go back again in a heartbeat.
Thanks Tammy for your kind and lovely review It's important for us that our guests are satisfied of their holiday and like our house We hope to meet you again, you and your family are a very nice guest and was nice to talk with you too
Accoglienza squisita, location silenziosa, immersa nel verde ma a pochi minuti dal centro di Lucca. La casa è calda e accogliente e dotata di tutti i confort. Comodissimo il posto auto, entrambi i proprietari molto gentili e disponibili. Torneremo di certo!
Grazie Giorgia a te e tutti i colleghi, é stato piacevole e interessante potervi ospitare, speriamo di rivedervi anche in altre occasioni ...oltre che per i Lucca comics A presto Paola e Daniele
Très bon accueil, chaleureux et souriant, une bouteille de Chianti nous attendait ainsi que de l'eau fraiche dans le réfrigérateur. Nous avons été conseillé et renseigné le soir même sur toutes les commodités, et les sites touristiques. l'endroit est très calme, le jardin est sympa , la maison est pratique et confortable. c'est un bon endroit pour passer des vacances en voulant visiter la région, la gare est proche très pratique. Nous le conseillons très bien
Merci Anna Marie pour votre commentaire et pour les conseils , nous sommes heureux que vous avez bien passez votre vacance dans notre maison, nous esperons de vous voir encore. A bientot Paola e Danièle
Thank you again for the wonderful stay. You have a beautiful home. We enjoyed meeting you.
Thanks to you, We are happy you stayed fine and you enjoyed in our house and in Lucca
Daniele picked us up from the train station and gave us a ride to the house. Paola showed us around the apt. which is attached to their house. It was a very nice place. We had access to both bedrooms upstairs. We were not picking up a car until the next day, so they showed us how to walk into Lucca. We just had to follow a trail under an old aquaeduct, it was a very enjoyable 20 min. walk, and Lucca was a very nice village. Paola showed us many places that we could drive to within a few hours. Lucca was a very central location to a lot of nice areas in Tuscany and Cinque Terre. We attended a community picnic with them and joined them for a boat ride to Cinque Terre with their friend that was visiting from Chicago (about 4 hrs. from where we live). We stayed for 7 nights. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it.
Was very nice also for us have time to stay with you and our American friend, a perfect coincidence! We are happy you enjoyed during your holiday and you liked our house See you son! Paola & Daniele
Hemos estado muy bien en esta casa, es muy cómoda y perfecta para conocer la Toscana. Daniele y Paola son personas muy amables y siempre dispuestos a ayudarte en lo que necesites y te proporcionan planos y te dan información de lugares para visitar. La casa estaba limpia y la cocina muy bien equipada, al llegar nos ofrecieron una botella de vino toscano. También tienen un simpático gato llamado Patata. Esta casa está sólo a 5 minutos en coche de la bonita ciudad de Lucca. Lo recomendaría sin ninguna duda. Fermin, Conxita y Lara.
Grazie Conxita, é stato un piacere ospitare la vostra simpatica famiglia , speriamo di rivedervi in un futuro Paola , Daniele , patata
Paola and Daniele made us feel very relaxed,everything was exactly like the photos:))we loved it:))we were with big car and very happy that we had privet parking!We walked the first two days,but was very hot,so we started driving and parking near the city,and then going to the train station or the town.Parking is very chip,and plenty of parking spaces!Daniele will tell you where about they are!The biggest surprise was the summer fest Lucca!we watched Mark Knopfler:)) We want to thank Paola and Daniele and Patata( the cat)for the lovely time and the nice wine they left for us for welcome!We wish you all the best nice people!
Thanks Tsveta, was lovely to know you and your husband We had a nice days with you We hope you will come back in a colder period ;-))) and may be we will talk again in Italiano Ciao,ciao Paola Daniele ....patata
We, a family of 4, spent 4 days in Paola and Daniele´s wonderful Tuscan villa in Verciano, 5 minutes outside of Lucca. The place is perfect for exploring the area, and we had trips to Firenze, San Gimignano and Volterra from here. In front of the house there is a nice garden with flowers and chairs for a nice lunch or evening drink. Paola and Daniele were very welcoming and helpful, and the appartment had everything that we needed. The frigde had cold water and juice, there was coffee, tea, and other essentials; things that you need in small amounts during a stay, for cooking or cleaning. They had also put out a nice bottle of wine for us, that we planned to have the last evening, but were too tired to enjoy. We would recommend Paola and Daniele´s place for those who would like to explore Tuscany, they are also the perfect hosts, and we would all like to come back. Thanks so much for having us and for making us feel so welcome.
We had a fantastic time staying at Paola's place near Lucca despite the heat wave of 40 Celsius. The two storey home is just like the images, there is easy parking and you definitely need a car to reach the house. Everything was clean and the hosts were very accommodating even allowing us to stay well into the afternoon the day of check out so we could spend more time in Lucca. We recommend walking along the aqueduct to reach Lucca it's very beautiful. One small negative which is uncontrollable due to the extreme heat and the bed being on the second floor it was rather hot to sleep even with a fan, but this was a rare occasion to have such a hot night, we just were not so lucky. Thank you again for all your recommendations and kindness, Grazie Mille, definitely will return, Robin, Ian and Morty(gatto)
Well Robin, thanks for your review, was a pleisure to meet you, Ian and Morty We are happy you liked Lucca and villa Amoroni and we hope to meet you again Yes, we know, this july is particularly hot, last year was cold and rainy .... It's difficult to previous the weather.... Good luck for next holidays! Ciao Paola Daniele & patata
Paola and Daniele were very welcoming and great communicators. We only contacted them the day before we needed accommodation and they were quick to respond and made every effort for us to arrive at mid day. They are an extremely charming couple and their pet cat, Potatas, is also friendly and charming. As we were driving we were seeking a location that provided parking. This was perfect as the car was garaged alongside the house and undercover. The apartment is lovely. It is two stories, with the downstairs providing a small, but adequate, kitchen which has all that is needed to prepare and cook meals, which we did most nights. Upstairs contains the bedrooms and bathroom, all of good size and very comfortable and airy. Beautiful, really. The apartment is probably best suited to those travelling by car as Lucca is a couple of km away, but an easy drive. Lucca is a wonderful small, walled city and although Florence is beautiful, we yearned to return to Lucca for dinner. The town is well serviced by trains and we railed to both Pisa and Florence so that we did not have a hassle with parking. Relatively inexpensive, comfortable and fast. So, overall, I can strongly recommend both Paola and Daniele as delightful hosts who are welcoming and helpful, as well as warm. We really liked them. The apartment is great, comfortable and well located to trains and Lucca, particularly by car. Parking in Lucca is easy...either free or very cheap. Thanks Paola and Daniele for having us and we look forward to hopefully seeing you again sometime.

Conosco Paola e Daniele da alcuni anni e sono stata ospite nella loro bellissima casa! Sono buoni amici, persone molto accoglienti e interessanti con tante esperienze di viaggi da raccontare! La casa dove vivono e che hanno ristrutturato con gusto e attenzione è molto bella, con un giardino davanti e tutto è molto curato!
Paola & Daniele are two wonderful and very friendly people. The house is very nice (they live next door) with a large garden. It can be your base to visit beautiful places, or even to have relax and stroll along the Nottolini aqueduct. The amazing walls of Lucca are only 5 minutes by car, but if you have time, with the help of Paola and Daniele, you will find many other places to visit. We love to stay in Villa Amoroni !

The best book I've found on the subject,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Girls Only! All About Periods and Growing-Up Stuff (Paperback)
This book really tackles the subject well.
My daughter's school started covering basic sex education, puberty & reproduction in year 5 in PHSE and my daughter felt that everyone at school knew all about this stuff except her.
So in addition to talking to her we got her this book to read when she was 10 and it was just right. She keeps it under her pillow in bed and frequently refers to it. It speaks the reader just like a reponsible big sister!

Learning to be a critical friend: from professional indifference through challenge to unguarded conversations
Abstract:This paper explores the nature of a critical friendship between two education advisers within a nation-wide New Zealand Ministry of Education (MOE, 2006-2008) research and development project. Over 18 months the relationship developed through evolving phases. This paper identifies and discusses the factors, circumstances, conditions and analytical tools that contributed to these changes; reviews appropriate literature; and responds to five questions that develop further understandings and insights into critical friendship. Findings from this government initiative (extracted from field notes, transcribed conversations and interviews) provide evidence to inform a model for the developmental phases of critical friendship that has international application within educational professional development.

Happy Thursday to you! A little over a week ago I shared that I got a new pair of running shoes; I thought they'd be so good, but found out the first time I walked that they caused my toes on my left foot to hurt. In fact, I didn't even make a short walk, but had to turn around. I took them back the next day, which was last week and talked to a clerk at the store. I had planned on getting my Asics brand, but tried another brand on that actually felt better. The clerk gave the brand, Saucony, a very high rating. So I thought the worst I can do is have to return them too. The great thing was the unbeknownst to me, I had a $50. credit at the store-have no idea what it was from; they said it was from 2 years ago-so my total cost was $35. So this is my new pair of walking shoes. I ended up getting one size bigger for comfort. I'd been told that with running shoes you always take .5-1. size bigger, who knew?
I am pleased to say that after walking 3.5 miles yesterday they were fine. They do look so long! However, it give my toes plenty of room. So I'm keeping my receipt and box and will return them if something changes. I've never had to do that before, but have never spent as much money on running shoes before either.
Hunter gets groomed this morning and after I drop him off, I'm meeting friends for coffee. This afternoon, I'm getting a hair cut. I'll be cutting fabric at some point, for my upcoming class in Sisters, Oregon.
I hope you have a lovely day!
Joy to you.

My daughter is studying in Stuttgart and my wife and I are going to visit her in late August this year. We are planning a two week trip and will probably spend two or three days in Stuttgart. We know we also want to visit Prague as it has been on our wish list for quite some time, but are undecided as to other cities to include. Options currently under consideration include Munich, Salzburg, Vienna and Budapest, but we are open to other suggestions as well.
Fodors has an interesting 9 day itinerary on this site that includes Prague, Vienna, and Budapest, so one option is to just tack Stuttgart on to the beginning or end of that itinerary, but we would like to hear from those who have traveled the area and can make recommendations based on personal experiences. For what it's worth, our previous European travel has included London, Paris, Rome, Venice and Istanbul (three separate trips). We are in our mid 50s and in good physical shape, so an aggressive itinerary is fine. However, we don't want to spend all of our time rushing from city to city. We want to spend enough time in each city to appreciate it's unique character and all it has to offer.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Stuttgart, Prague and ?
My daughter is studying in Stuttgart and my wife and I are going to visit her in late August this year. We are planning a two week trip and will probably spend two or three days in Stuttgart. We know we also want to visit Prague as it has been on our wish list for quite some time, but are undecided as to other cities to include. Options currently under consideration include Munich, Salzburg, Vienna and Budapest, but we are open to other suggestions as well.

I don't think you can go wrong with any of the cities under your consideration. However, I love Berlin (lived there for a few years) and I'd add that one to your list of possibilities. It's a very vibrant city with lots of great history, architecture, food, etc.

I would consider Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Munich and Salzburg if going by train. The walled in city of Rothenburg is so interesting for at least one full day with an overnight. Include the English tour at 2 pm leaving from the TI as well as the nightwatchman's tour at 7:30.
Munich's main pedestrian-only area with the Marktplatz is just 1 block from the station with nice hotels and gardens nearby. Can't comment on Salzburg. If driving and doing Munich and Salzburg, I would not miss Berchtesgaden as the area is stunningly beautiful and 2 hours by Munich. Include the tour of Lake Konigsee as well as Hitler's Eagle's Nest.

Well, the cities you suggest (Munich, Salzburg, Vienna, Prague, and Budapest) are all lovely and have lots to offer. As longhorn55 says, you can't really go wrong. I think the only way you could go wrong is to try to squeeze too much in. I'd focus on making your top choice work (Prague) and then working around that.
With 11 or 12 days aside from Stuttgart, at roughly 4 nights each you could see 3 major cities. The obvious thing to do here to make these destinations work would be to arrange an open jaw flight. I would lean towards something like fly into Stuttgart > Prague > Vienna > depart from Budapest OR fly into Munich > Salzburg > Vienna > Prague > Stuttgart (meaning either Munich/Salzburg OR Budapest). Honestly, you can't really go wrong. Obviously, your travels are centered on major world cities, so you could make some effort to incorporate smaller scenic areas along the way, such as Cesky Krumlov from Prague or some of the Danube towns outside of Vienna (Melk, Krems, Dürnstein), or indeed some of Bavarian/Austrian alps.
Certainly Berlin also makes a great trip and would fit conveniently on a Berlin - Dresden - Prague - Vienna - Budapest axis.
It's probably worth discussing a little more about what your interests are (art? music? food? wine? hiking/biking?) or a little about your favorite things from your other travels so perhaps we can see if one or two of your options rises to the top.
I'm also curious if you will be travelling with your daughter at all and if she might have some ideas or preferences. If she is a student in Stuttgart, it might be worthwhile to let her guide you in the German-speaking areas and share what she's learning.

I used to live outside of Stuttgart. Here's another option. Spend longer in Stuttgart and do day trips to Strasbourg, Baden-Baden, Lucerne, Ulm and Heidelberg... you daughter may have some ideas too.... and then take a train/plane to Prague

For some variety, you might consider staying in a small town

Thanks so much for all of your helpful replies. We booked our flights this weekend and will be flying into Prague and out of Stuttgart. Several of you suggested mixing up the big cities with some smaller towns, and based on your recommendations we are thinking we will incorporate Cesky Krumlov, Berchtesgarden, and Rothenburg ob der Tauber into our plans. I'll post our tentative itinerary and invite comments in a new thread, but in general we are planning to fill the first week with three days in Prague, one day in Cesky Krumlov, and three days in Vienna. Then pick up a car to drive from Vienna to Stuttgart the second week, hitting points of interest along the way. Options include Danube towns of Krems, Dürnstein, and/or Melk; Salzburg (Sound of Music Tour?), Bavarian Alps (Berchtesgarden/Eagles nest, Konigssee, Zugspitze, and/or Schloss Neuschwanstein), and Ulm. Our daughter will be working and not able to travel with us but we look forward to seeing her when we are in Stuttgart and she may make a day trip with us to Rothenburg ob der Tauber. I know we will be tempted to try to squeeze too much in and this list will probably have to be trimmed, but thanks again for all of your help in getting us to this point in our planning.

Sounds great, newesttraveler. I've mentioned before CK Shuttle and other shuttle services that work very well for transportation between Prague, Cesky Krumlov, and points in Austria, including Vienna. That might be a good option for you for this leg. There is good rail service (EuroCity) between Prague and Vienna, but Cesky Krumlov is a bit off the beaten path.
You'll probably find an exorbitant drop fee for picking a car up in Vienna and dropping it in Stuttgart. Renting a car in Germany is also generally cheaper than Austria, possibly significantly cheaper. One suggestion would be to use the very fast rail connections from Vienna to Salzburg, and rent your car over the border in Germany (I believe the train between Vienna and Salzburg is even faster than the Autobahn). If you pick up the car over the border in Bavaria, you will still find many of the sights on your list (Berchtesgaden, Zugspitze, Neuschwanstein, Ulm) all easily reachable with your car. The car will come in handy later on, particularly for getting over to Rothenburg ob der Tauber or other trips from Stuttgart.
Since you'll have a car, you could also consider a day trip to Burg Hohenzollern, which I think is one of the most stunning castles in the region. It's also a little off the tourist path compared to an often rather mobbed place like Neuschwanstein, which can be nice.
I would also suggest reading some of the past threads on Eagles Nest, where there is some very strong differences of opinions as to whether or not this is a worthwhile place to visit.
Report Abuse
Here's one very lively thread on Eagle's Nest, which will give you some sharply-pointed perspectives on both sides:

Woyzeck, thanks for the CK Shuttle tip. I had assumed there would be some way to travel from Prague to Vienna with a stop in Cesky Krumlov, either by bus or train, but had not had the chance to do any research yet. Sounds like the shuttle may be just what we need.
Thanks also for the rental car advice. I knew there would be a drop charge if we didn't return the car to its point of origin, but it's good to know the cost is less if we pick it up in Germany.
Most appreciated of all is your advice on options to avoid the crowds (Burg Hohenzollern rather than Neuschwanstein). Our previous European adventures have been a bit more off-season (Rome and Venice in March, Paris and Istanbul in November), so we may not be prepared for the inevitable crowds that descend upon Europe's tourist destinations in late summer.
The Eagle's Nest tread gave me food for thought as well. Now that we have our flights booked, we will focus on fine-tuning the day by day itinerary to determine how long we'll stay in each location and what we'll see while we are there. I'll post that soon. Thanks again for all your help!

The train station in Cesky Krumlov lies a bit outside of the center of the town (almost 2 KM), which complicates train travel a little. There is closer bus station where much of the traffic from Prague comes in. Otherwise, I think you'll find train and bus transport from Prague to Cesky Krumlov is actually not too bad. Cesky Krumlov to Vienna is more difficult, most likely involving a transfer in Cesky Budejovice. The shuttle is faster and comes with door-to-door service and the option of a stop along the way (we chose Dürnstein). Cesky Krumlov and Rothenburg ob der Tauber really have a whole lot in common, both as very well preserved medieval towns, and as very popular destinations for tourists.
Check out gemut.com for some good European car rental advice (and booking too). I used them last summer and they really came through for me when I ran into some trouble.
Neuschwanstein is a "must" for many, but is not necessarily for everyone. In addition to the crowds (6,000 people a day), it was built more recently and never really used as a royal residence. Of course, there are great stories about King Ludwig, as well as the lovely and less-acclaimed Hohenschwangau palace down the hill. But there are lots of alternative ways to pass your days in the region, and Hohenzollern certainly has a lot to offer as well. Not to mention the fact that it's only 50 KM from Stuttgart, so you might be able to enjoy it with your daughter.

Melbourne Storm star Scott Hill has signed a new deal, worth $1.5 million over five years to stay with the Melbourne Storm. The deal will almost certainly see Hill finish his career with the Storm and his signature comes just days after another original Storm player, Matt Geyer, decided to put pen to paper and extend his tenure with the Storm.
Hill had been linked with the Sharks and many thought he would finish his career with former coach Chris Anderson and former partner in crime Brett Kimmorley. Hill said all the talk of his imminent departure out of Melbourne was pure ?speculation?.
Hill was also courted by the Canberra Raiders and Wests Tigers but his desire to remain under coach Craig Bellamy was the main reason Hill opted to stay with the Storm.
Hill has also been offered a coaching role with the Storms feeder club, Brisbane Norths after his contract expires.

- Mesenchyme;
- B-cell receptor;
- Embryo;
- Gene expression
Stem cells exhibit a promiscuous gene expression pattern. We show herein that the early embryo and adult MSCs express B-cell receptor component mRNAs. To examine possible bearings of these genes on the expressing cells, we studied immunoglobulin μ chain-deficient mice. Pregnant μ chain-deficient females were found to produce a higher percentage of defective morulae compared with control females. Structure analysis indicated that the μ mRNA species found in embryos and in mesenchyme consist of the constant region of the μ heavy chain that encodes a recombinant 50-kDa protein. In situ hybridization localized the constant μ gene expression to loose mesenchymal tissues within the day-12.5 embryo proper and the yolk sac. In early embryo and in adult mesenchyme from μ-deficient mice, δ replaced μ chain, implying a possible requirement of these alternative molecules for embryo development and mesenchymal functions. Indeed, overexpression of the mesenchymal-truncated μ heavy chain in 293T cells resulted in specific subcellular localization and in G1 growth arrest. The lack of such occurrence following overexpression of a complete, rearranged form of μ chain suggests that the mesenchymal version of this mRNA may possess unique functions.

An Oregon House Committee reviews a proposal that would allow more Oregon cities to install and enforce bike signals at busy intersections. Representative Jim Weidner is concerned too many signals may lead to more confusion by drivers, not less. But Paul Mather with the Portland Bureau of Transportation says the signals give cyclists better cues and reduce traffic congestion. The bike signals are timed with "no turn on red" lights that help drivers know how to navigate an intersection with heavy bike and car traffic.
