Liberal Muslim movements
|Part of a series on
Liberal movements within Islam involve professed Muslims who have produced a considerable body of liberal thought on the re-interpretation and reform of Islamic understanding and practice.[1][2] Their work is sometimes characterized as "progressive Islam" (Arabic: الإسلام التقدمي al-Islām at-taqaddumī ), some regard progressive Islam and liberal Islam as two distinct movements.[3]
The methodologies of liberal or progressive Islam rest on the interpretation and re-interpretation of traditional Islamic scripture (the Quran) and other texts (such as the Hadith), a process called ijtihad (see below).[4] This can vary from the slight to the most liberal, where only the meaning of the Quran is considered to be a revelation, with its expression in words seen as the work of the prophet Muhammad in his particular time and context. As a consequence, liberal/progressive Muslims may then interpret verses from the Quran allegorically or even set them aside.
Liberal Muslim intellectuals who have focused on religious reform include Muhammad Ali, Sayyid al-Qimni, Irshad Manji, Nasr Abu Zayd, Khalil Abdel-Karim, Abdolkarim Soroush, Mohammed Arkoun, Mohammed Shahrour, Ahmed Subhy Mansour, Edip Yuksel, Gamal al-Banna, Abdullahi Ahmed An-Na'im, Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri,[5] Javed Ahmad Ghamidi, Ahmed Al-Gubbanchi, Mahmoud Mohammed Taha, and Faraj Foda. Taha was hanged in 1985 under the sharia regime of Jaafar al-Nimeiri[6] and Foda was assassinated in 1992 by al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya.[7]
Some liberal Muslims see themselves as returning to the principles of the early Ummah and to a claimed ethical and pluralistic intent of their scripture, the Quran.[8] They distance themselves from some traditional and less liberal interpretations of Islamic law which they regard as culturally based and without universal applicability. The reform movement uses monotheism (tawhid) "as an organizing principle for human society and the basis of religious knowledge, history, metaphysics, aesthetics, and ethics, as well as social, economic and world order".[9]

The reform movements of Islam, like Reform Judaism, are movements within their parent religion, rather than an attempt at schism. They seek to adapt a traditional religion to liberal, human rights–oriented values, like Reform Judaism does with Judaism.
Reform Muslims, like their more orthodox peers, believe in the basic tenets of Islam, such as the Six Elements of Belief and the Five Pillars and they consider their views to be fully compatible with Islam. Their main differences with more conservative Islamic opinion are twofold. The first lies in differences of interpretation of how to apply the core Islamic values to modern life,[10] the second a more reactionary dialectic which criticizes traditional narratives or even rejects them, thus denying any obligation to follow them while also allowing greater freedom in interpreting Quran regardless of the hadith.[11]
Central tenets[edit]
Several generally accepted tenets have emerged:
- The autonomy of the individual in interpreting the Quran and Hadith.[12] More liberal trends include rejecting Hadiths completely (like Quran Alone Muslims) or partially (including hadiths considered authentic (Sahih) by traditionalists) like Gamal Al-Banna.
- A more critical and diverse examination of religious texts, as well as traditional Islamic precedents.
- Complete gender equality in all aspects, including ritual prayer and observance.
- A more open view on modern culture in relation to customs, dress, and common practices. Certain rules on modesty amongst men and women are still self-enforced in response to the Quran's injunction against immodest dress.
- The individual use of ijtihad (interpretation) and fitrah (natural sense of right and wrong) is advocated.
Contemporary and controversial issues[edit]
Over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries, in accordance with their increasingly modern societies and outlooks, liberal Muslims have tended to reinterpret many aspects of the application of their religion in their life in an attempt to reconnect with the original message, untouched by harmful cultural influences. This is particularly true of Muslims who now find themselves living in non-Muslim countries.[13]
Such people may describe themselves variously as liberal, progressive, or reformist (in application but not in the tenets of the faith); but rather than implying a specific agenda, these terms tend to incorporate a broad spectrum of views which contest conservative, traditional interpretations of Islam in many different ways. Although there is no full consensus amongst liberal Muslims on their views, they tend to agree on some or all of the following beliefs:
In The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam one of Islam's greatest philosophers, Muhammad Iqbal called for a re-examination of the intellectual foundations of Islamic philosophy. The book is a major work of modern Islamic thought and it was a major influence on Ghulam Ahmed Pervez and the organization Tolu-e-Islam.
Critical ijtihad is the questioning of traditional interpretations of the Qur'an which reformist Muslims found to be intellectually stifling in the light of modern wisdom and scientific knowledge. Most liberal Muslims reject the derivation of Islamic laws from absolute literal readings of single Quranic verses. They generally claim a holistic view which takes into account the 7th-century Arabian cultural context and then allows deeper insight into the manner in which the commands of God (Allah) are carried out. Some scholars, however, say that this is a veiled form of "biddah", or innovation, and reject critical evaluation as a whole.
Human rights[edit]
Moderate Islamic political thought contends that the nurturing of the Muslim identity and the propagation of values such as democracy and human rights are not mutually exclusive, but rather should be promoted together.[14]
Most liberal Muslims believe that Islam promotes the notion of absolute equality of all humanity, and that it is one of its central concepts. Therefore, a breach of human rights has become a source of great concern to most liberal Muslims.[15] Though human rights is perceived to be of the utmost concern of all devoted adherents to the Islamic faith,[citation needed] liberal Muslims differ with their culturally conservative counterparts in that they believe that all humanity is represented under the umbrella of human rights. Many Muslim majority countries have signed international human rights treaties, but the impact of these largely remains to be seen in local legal systems – a point highlighted by the fact that most countries which impose conservative interpretations of Shariah law are amongst the most repressive countries in the world, while secular states are often the most open and tolerant.[16]
Muslim liberals often reject traditional interpretations of Islamic law, which allows Ma malakat aymanukum and Slavery. They say that Slavery opposed Islamic principles which they believe to be based on justice and equality and some say that verses relating to slavery or "Ma malakat aymanukum" now can not be applied due to the fact that the world has changed, while others say that those verses are totally misinterpreted and twisted to legitimize slavery.[17][18]
Within the framework of justice and equality for all, Muslim liberals include gay rights as a human right.[citation needed]
The place of women in Islam, correct gender roles in Islam and Islamic feminism are likewise major issues.[19] For this reason, liberal Muslims are often critical of traditional Islamic law interpretations which allow polygyny for men but not polyandry for women, as well as the traditional Islamic law of inheritance under which daughters receive less than sons. Traditional Muslims believe this is balanced by the right of a woman to be taken care of by her brother(s) until her marriage, and the rights of a wife to her husband's money and her dowry (Mahr), whereas the husband does not have a right to his wife's money. In addition to paying for the younger sister's upkeep, the surviving sons need additional funds to pay dowries to their future wives, an expense women do not have to bear.
It is also accepted by most liberal Muslims that a woman may lead the state, and that women should not be segregated from men in society or in mosques. These views are generally rejected by traditional Muslim scholars, including scholars from the four schools of Islamic thought[which?], as they have been in the past. Some liberal Muslims accept that a woman may lead a mixed group in prayers, despite the established custom for women to pray behind or in a separate space. However, this issue remains controversial; see women as imams. Some Muslim feminists are also opposed to the traditional dress requirements for women (commonly called hijab), claiming that any modest clothing is sufficiently Islamic for both men and women. Some of the groups, particularly the Quranists, reject hadiths.
Some liberal Muslims favor the idea of modern secular democracy with separation of church and state, and thus oppose Islam as a political movement.
The existence or applicability of Islamic law is questioned by some liberals. Their argument often involves variants of the Mu'tazili theory that the Quran was created by God for the particular circumstances of the early Muslim community and that reason must be used to apply it in other contexts.
Tolerance and non-violence[edit]
Tolerance is another key tenet of liberal Muslims, who are generally open to interfaith dialogue and conflict resolution with such communities as Jews, Christians, Hindus and the numerous factions within Islam.
Liberal Muslims are more likely to reflect the idea of jihad in terms of the widely accepted "internal spiritual struggle" rather than an "armed struggle". The ideals of non-violence are prevalent in Liberal Muslim ideology and backed by Qu'ranic text; "permission to fight is given only to those who have been oppressed... who have been driven from their homes for saying, 'God is our Lord'" (22:39). This idea is however not exclusive to liberal Muslims but is also followed in traditional Islam. Most following Islam, liberal or otherwise, accept that jihad is more of the heart than with the sword.[citation needed] According to traditional Islamic scholars, the sword is only drawn under circumstances which oppress the Muslim community and even in those circumstances, the strict Islamic guidelines for war have to be followed. This includes not engaging in violence with non combatants, women, children and not to destroy even the crops of the enemy lands and not to attack the people engaged in combat within places of worship unless they attack first.
Reliance on secular scholarship[edit]
Liberal Muslims[who?] tend to be skeptical about the validity of Islamization of knowledge[citation needed] (including Islamic economics, Islamic science, Islamic history and Islamic philosophy) as separate from mainstream fields of inquiry. This is usually due to the often secular outlook of Muslim liberals, which makes them more disposed to trust mainstream secular scholarship. They may also regard the propagation of these fields as merely a propaganda move by Muslim conservatives.[20]
Gülen movement[edit]
The Hizmet movement led by Turkish Islamic scholar and preacher Fethullah Gülen in Turkey, Central Asia, and in other parts of the world is active in education with private schools and universities in over 180 countries as well as many American charter schools operated by followers. It has initiated forums for interfaith dialogue.[21][22] The Cemaat movement's structure has been described as a flexible organizational network.[23] Movement schools and businesses organize locally and link themselves into informal networks.[24] Estimates of the number of schools and educational institutions vary widely; there appeared to be about 300 Gülen movement schools in Turkey prior to the attempted coup d'etat in July 2016 but it is unclear how many (if any) of these institutions will survive the subsequent purge and persecution initiated by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's government following the defeat of the coup. The claimed total of over 1,000 schools worldwide[25][26] may have to be revised down in the light of the effective proscription of the movement's overt operations in Turkey.
Fethullah Gülen advocates cooperation between followers of different religions as well as those practicing different forms of Islam such as Alevi and Sunni in Turkey. Gülen movement participants have founded a number of institutions across the World that claim to promote interfaith and intercultural dialogue activities. Among them the major ones are Istanbul based Journalists and Writers Foundation, Washington, D.C. based Rumi Forum, and New Delhi based Indialogue Foundation.
Islamic Modernism[edit]
Islamic Modernism is a movement that has been described as "the first Muslim ideological response"[a] attempting to reconcile Islamic faith with modern Western values such as nationalism, democracy, civil rights, rationality, equality, and progress.[28] It featured a "critical reexamination of the classical conceptions and methods of jurisprudence" and a new approach to Islamic theology and Quranic exegesis (Tafsir).[27]
It was the first of several Islamic movements – including secularism, Islamism and Salafism – that emerged in the middle of the 19th century in reaction to the rapid changes of the time, especially the perceived onslaught of Western Civilization and colonialism on the Muslim world.[28] Founders include Muhammad Abduh, a Sheikh of Al-Azhar University for a brief period before his death in 1905, Jamal ad-Din al-Afghani, and Muhammad Rashid Rida (d. 1935).
The early Islamic Modernists (al-Afghani and Muhammad Abdu) used the term "salafiyya"[29] to refer to their attempt at renovation of Islamic thought,[30] and this "salafiyya movement" is often known in the West as "Islamic modernism," although it is very different from what is currently called the Salafi movement, which generally signifies "ideologies such as wahhabism".[b] Since its inception, Modernism has suffered from co-option of its original reformism by both secularist rulers and by "the official ulama" whose "task it is to legitimise" rulers' actions in religious terms.[31]
Modernism differs from secularism in that it insists on the importance of religious faith in public life, and from Salafism or Islamism in that it embraces contemporary European institutions, social processes, and values.[28]

Quranists believe Muhammad himself was a Quranist and the founder of Quranism, and that his followers distorted the faith and split into schisms and factions such as Sunni, Shia, and Khawarij. Quranists reject the hadith and follow the Quran only. The extent to which Quranists reject the authenticity of the Sunnah varies,[32] but the more established groups have thoroughly criticised the authenticity of the hadith and refused it for many reasons, the most prevalent being the Quranist claim that hadith is not mentioned in the Quran as a source of Islamic theology and practice, was not recorded in written form until more than two centuries after the death of the Muhammed, and contain perceived internal errors and contradictions.[32][33]
The movement was initiated by Muhammad Iqbal, and later spearheaded by Ghulam Ahmed Pervez. Ghulam Ahmed Pervez did not reject all hadiths; however, he only accepted hadiths which "are in accordance with the Quran or do not stain the character of the Prophet or his companions".[34] The organization publishes and distributes books, pamphlets, and recordings of Pervez's teachings.[34]
Tolu-e-Islam does not belong to any political party, nor does it belong to any religious group or sect. It is strictly against sectarianism, because such acts of creating sects/divisions in Islam is equal in magnitude to "Shirk" i.e. rejection of Monotheism.[35]

In Russia and CIS, Sufi orders movements within Islam (social Islam). In Europe there are associations of progressive Muslims.
PPP is the party with Liberal stance and Islam was official religion in Indonesia that established in 1973.
At least one observer (Max Rodenbeck) has noted several challenges to "reform"—i.e. accommodation with the enlightenment, reason and science, the separation of religion and politics—that the other two Abrahamic faiths did not have to grapple with:
whereas Christian and Jewish reform evolved over centuries, in relatively organic and self-generated—albeit often bloody—fashion, the challenge to Islam of such concepts as empirical reasoning, the nation-state, the theory of evolution, and individualism arrived all in a heap and all too often at the point of a gun.[36]
In addition traditional sharia law has been shaped in all its complexity by serving for centuries as "the backbone" of legal systems of Muslim states, while millions of Muslim now live in non-Muslim states. Islam also lacks a "widely recognized religious hierarchy to explain doctrinal changes or to enforce them" because it has no [central] church.[36]

This salafiyya movement is often known in the West as "Islamic modernism.' However, the term salafism is today generally employed to signify ideologies such as Wahhabism, the puritanical ideology of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia."[30]

Are Americans ready for a revolution? What worse than the current meltdown of the financial sector, the unraveling of our economy, and burdening us and future generations with astounding debt is needed to convince Americans that the two-party plutocracy has sold out ordinary Americans? What we are witnessing is far worse than the taxation without representation that spurred the American Revolution. Taxation with MISrepresentation is a greater evil and shameful sellout of democracy that so many Americans have fought and died for.
Yet, despite over 80 percent of Americans saying that the nation is on the wrong track – BEFORE the current financial crisis, Americans sheepishly seem ready and willing this year to keep voting for Democrats and Republicans. If they had one shred of the smartness and courage of our nation's Founders, they would overwhelmingly vote for third party presidential candidates to send the clearest and most patriotic message possible to the ruling class that has both major parties in their pocket.
Known and very popular cialis coupon which gives all the chance to receive a discount for a preparation which has to be available and exactly cialis coupons has been found in the distant room of this big house about which wood-grouses in the houses tell.
Ousting Democrats and Republicans is more justified and needed than removing the tyranny of the King of England. Our elected domestic tyranny operating as a plutocracy masquerading as a democracy has been raping our nation. Yet middle class victims seem more than willing to keep bending over and asking for more pain and insult as they fall hook, line and sinker for the lies of both Barack Obama and John McCain.
It is far too easy, with the financial sector meltdown, for Americans to only blame Republicans. But Bill Clinton started the deregulation of the financial sector and every evil and stupid thing George W. Bush and Republicans have done could not have happened without the cooperation of corrupt and cowardly Democrats in Congress. They too have inflicted economic sodomy on us and contributed to disgracing our Constitution.
What incredible absurdity that the government seems ready to spend $700 billion to bail out countless crooked, mismanaged and greedy companies (and similar money on the Iraq war) and not ever seriously propose to spend that kind of money on rebuilding the nation's crumbling physical infrastructure that would immediately create millions of new good paying jobs desperately needed by the middle class.
Now is the time for Americans to wake up, stand up and vote down Republicans and Democrats. How wonderful it would be if the candidate that claims the presidency only receives, say, 20 percent of all eligible voters. This is the first necessary step for we the people to take back OUR country.

...but for whom shall we vote? The slavish stupidity of believing there are only two candidates--one from the Democratic Party, the other from the Republican Party--has mystified me for decades. Yes, we had a "Green Party" once, quickly sidelined.
The tyranny of our "two-party system" should be so obvious...what keeps the public willingly adhering to its tyranny? Well, for one thing, consider that school children (at least in our neck of the woods) cannot discuss the political choices of their teachers, because the teachers may not discuss or proselytize for one candidate or the other with buttons or signs. Nope. We cannot even practice and encourage rational, critical debate in schools, because our schools must, I guess, remain politically "neutral" or de-politicized.

They did not arrive until Feb. 16th.
The wilted, small, imperfect specimens were shipped in a UPS box from Florida, and instead of red (as he had ordered) they were several different colors.
Ours was the same experience as others who have posted on this site.
With one exception: The message card, on which was printed "I love you", was fixed to the outside of the UPS box, in a clear packing-slip envelope, with the writing facing outward for the world to see!
Good thing my husband's message wasn't more personal!
I made numerous calls to the company with the same results, namely, after 30 breathtaking minutes of listening to canned Muzak, a recorded message said to try back later, due to the "high volume of calls"...and then I was disconnected!
I tried several more times, with the same results. My husband sent customer service an email, to which, shockingly, there has been no reply.
Conclusion: This company (and it's owner, Alif Somani) is a lying clot of corrupt weasels nothing more than smarmy, deceptive, carnies determined to swindle consumers with a website full of misleading sound bites and a collection of unctuous, masturbatory prose allegedly sent in by happy customers as "testimonials".
Action: File a complaint. With as many agencies as you can. (I've included a list of websites below).
Then....PRINT IT OUT and mail a copy to UrbanFlorist. Better yet, FAX it to them at 1-604-677-0423. Just to share your experience with these cranio-rectally inverted bottom-feeders. I'm sure they're breathless with anticipation.

compare eel a little big, but will definitely be more comfy than high shoes!! in my opinion this is a great idea.these are ok.i think slightly expensive for what they actually are.they are handy but so is a £3 pair of primark pumps squashed in your bag.they wouldn't be strong enough for say walking home after a night out they would just rip. Excellent Great pair of shoes, both light weight and comfy, even after wearing them all night. Will be ordering again in the future. Second time I have bought these shoes & will buy again, I am on my feet all day a very comfy shoe After trying numerous steel toe work shoes, these have been the best. Lisbon o areas rubbed and were dry by the time I left for home. Unlike the trail glove these shoes have an elasticated heal which is perfect for slipping them on and off without relying the laces; I have yet to experience them slipping off at all and they don't move off when worn6 month update: still in very good condition, been muddied, washed and worn in all Scottish terrain but still the soles show no sign of debonding, the material shows little more than the expected inside scuffing and they are as comfortable as ever.Would definitely buy these again (although my last merrell shoes lasted 5 years so unlikely to be soon!) My husband loves these trainers, he is a size 11 but they make his feet look smaller. He says they are very comfortable. I'm very happy with this buy. These shoes are better than I expected. They are good looking, very light and fit my feet perfectly. For a thin soled shoe they really are buy online products pairs of other (cheaper) Pro 11 insoles for all my shoes (and slippers!).I'm just not sure what I can do about my sandals! These insoles have really helped my heel pain due to Plantar Fasciitus. Very good indeed. Put them into some hiking boots, they felt a bit odd at first but after persevering for a couple of hours they soon bedded in and haven't looked back. Intend to buy a pair for some astroturf shoes next. I don't normally do reviews, but I must recommend these insoles. I was diagnosed with plantar fascittis three weeks ago - agony - and nothing I could do relieved it. These insoles support my arch so well that, even after a few hours of using the inside my normal work shoes, the supra shoes sale ed my feet were in previous shoes). First run was 12k and no rubbing, blisters, etc. The shoe although very cushioned is soft and light. Honestly recommend. Oh and £60 is great price. Happy running!I can also mention that Saucony 6 in size 6 felt small and tight. Brooks 14 in size 6 beautifully comfortable. I've brought Brooks running shoes since 2006 till earlier this year when I changed to Asics but due to niggling strains gone back to these shoes. Always reliable stability even though I have a neutral running style I like the shoe overall. It feels solidly constructed and does a good job at supporting the inside of my arch. It seems to be relieving some ankle pain I was having. I'm hyp.
best notebook 2010 durable, weatherproof and the drawstrings feel strong. Also, the fact that it is available in a number of bright colours aids safety, and you can, if you wish, print onto it.My girlfriend has been using this bag for a number of weeks now and finds it ideal for quick trips to the gym or swimming pool and thinks it has ample capacity for most people. It also has the added benefit of being washable at 30 degrees. At this price point I can't see what more you can ask for. If you want something more elaboyed the original film and the episode 'Girl on a Bike'. The box is attractive and sturdy and I recommend this DVD highly.
Fantastic box set. The original movie is now hard to find and this fun little box set came with the original movie, Girl on a Bike and another soundtrack that had a lot of the music from the series. I only wish the whole series from start to finish had been released onto DVD with more soundtracks. Have been a RSD fan since the start and this is a great addition to my collection.
I am a long time red shoe diaries fan and have the original movie on VHS. I had to get this set. I also have the original sexy erotic music from George S. Clinton which I still listen to all these years later. Great movie, bit sad but Billy Worth is hot and sexy as her lover. A must movie.
I have always loved red shoe diaries. It is so sensual and seductive. Highly recommended to watch and get addicted to.
Even used, this DVD-Box is a great pleasure for all Red Shoes- (/Duchovny-) fans containing a Soundtracks-DVD, the pilot and the first season.Without any possibility getting it in Germany, I commanded the DVD-Box in the UK with low shipping-prices www.incatech.co.uk med a lot in! But basically it's a journey back in time to a dreamlike magical realm where the strict ballet teacher morphs into the Snow Queen.I think some ballet knowledge would probably help before you watch this. I'm no ballet aficionado, in fact all my ballet knowledge comes from previous Barbie DVDs but your family might enjoy it more if they know a few of the stories/characters or seen the Barbie DVDs from Swan Lake, Nutcracker etc beforehand. (note to self: read the story of Giselle before second viewing)It's probably the funniest Barbie DVD to date too, I LOL'd a few times.On the whole very pleased with it, already looking forward to seeing it again.
As with any of the Barbie films, this is great. My daughter loves it and spends all her time dancing!! Would reconmend it to any one with a little girl who loves Barbie or the ballet!!
My daughter has the whole collection and t www.suprashoesseek.com support with a slight ridge inside the top of the boot to keep them secure. I've experienced no slipping at all and not even anything close to a blister.Function----------The 'Gor-Tex' waterproofing and grip got a full testing during a festival with heavy downfalls and ensuing mudslides. My feet did not even get the slightest bit damp and the boots gripped fantastically even on very slippery surfaces.They fared well on various walks over long flat distances as well as steep hilly surfaces and didn't ever become uncomfortable. Their light weight stopped them from ever getting the feeling of being cumbersome which I have had with other boots.The rubber sole is good quality, with well thought out treads to help grip in all conditions and terrain.Breathability is also great, with minimal perspiration even after long walks in summer heat whilst wearing hiking socks.An added bonus is as far as hiking boots go, these are pretty good looking to ( I believe they are available in other colours also , I chose carbon black).My only complaint would be the .
best coffee he right one! (I'm a size 8 in womens and I chose size 8 UK). They came perfectly packaged in the box and were in perfect condition when I took them out! I'd highly recommend these to anyone! :)
this is a comfy shoe but should not be used if you have long walks everday as the shoe sole is not thick enough to absorb the pressure on your heel.
Old skool perfection. Fit like slippers yet feel like feathers. Superb.4 stars.
I had a pair of converse boots as a student and now twenty years on they are still a classic. Not the most comfortable footwear but a classic nonetheless and the colour range is great. bargain price compared to the highstreet
I don't usually buy products such as these, but after getting these converses I have never turned back. They are comfortable, stylish and all around great buy. There are two downsides however; they are pretty expensive in comparison to other shoes, although I think that it is definitely worth the extra bit of money. The other is you won't be able to stop buying them; I have sent off for another pair and planning to buy ant think I would have identified these problems if I had bought the shoes offline. Sometimes you just discover these things as you break the shoes in unfortunately. So all-in three stars feels about right.
Bought these after filling in my details on the Runnersworld website. They are recommended for heel strike heavy running styles and also for the *ahem* larger runners amoung us.The support is great and the shock absorption in the heels feels incredible. For now I give them 5 stars. Will update if anything changes
I am by no means a running expert, these are only the second pair of dedicated running trainers I have ever bought. However they fit well and I've had no problems with them during my road running
I was a bit hesitant at spending this much on running shoes but it was definitely worth it. Great nonopro air of this product :).
I did have some trouble with sizing for these. Ordered a 7 though I am usually a 6 because the comments on the sizing of these were very confusing. I returned them because they were massive, so big that I ordered a 5 thinking that they would be the perfect fit, which they are, just. First walk around was a tiny bit tight but now they are perfect. They are very nice shoes, they look good, feel comfortable and are generally nice trainers.
I love these shoes, they are so light and flexible..I got them as a winter alternative to my 5-finger shoes, and to wear as day shoes. I had hoped they would be a bit more waterproof than other trainers, sadly, they're not. But very comfortable, and with a good pair of socks my feet stayed warm, if not dry. They are a bit slippy on smooth wet s vivienne westwood sale really do seem to be struggling to pack the episodes with material, for example.... There are many episodes where certain scenes are dragged out far too long and was making me for the 1st time ever to fast forward, I couldn't believe it!! It goes on so long that it makes the joke no longer funny, more annoying and boring. Also they always usually do a musical in an episode, which I love as it is usually funny and witty, yes the musical they have done in this season is funny and witty, but 10 minutes for 1 song of repetitiveness starts to wear thin. They also have an episode where they play a music video of Mick Jagger and David Bowie (I think), not a funny 15 second clip, the whole music video, WTF? Also another episode where they start to have dejavu and just play certain scenes over again? They .

- The German ZEW survey of investor confidence has unexpectedly dropped into negative territory for the first time in almost two years, tumbling to -3.6 in October from 6.9 in September and missing expectations of 1.
- The current situation print has slumped to 3.2 from 25.4, falling short of consensus of 18.
- Sentiment for the eurozone plunged to 4.1 from 14.2 and missed forecasts of 7.1.
- "Geopolitical tensions and the weak economic development in some parts of the Eurozone, which is falling short of previous expectations, are a source of persistent uncertainty," says ZEW President Professor Clemens Fuest. "These factors are tarnishing growth expectations in Germany. Disappointing figures concerning incoming orders, industrial production, and foreign trade have likely contributed to the growing pessimism among financial market experts." (PR)

- The ECB cut its growth forecast for the EU for 2014 and 2015, says Mario Draghi at his post-meeting press conference, but raised its outlook for 2016. Inflation is seen at lower-than-expected levels in the coming months before increasing gradually in 2016.
- The central bank, says Draghi, will start to purchase a broad portfolio of euro-denominated covered bonds and also begin to buy ABS, with further details coming in October. It sounds like the Germans are on board: "Should it become necessary, the Governing Council is unanimous in using additional measures."

Are you looking for support? Or is this just a request.
this is a request to fix Spun theme header.php file so we do not have to use child theme to fix this "bug"
It's not a bug. It's a perfectly valid design decision. The vast majority of WordPress themes do not generate meta description headers. And for good reason. There are plenty of SEO plugins for that.
Sure, if your description is 3 words long :)
If it's any longer... it's a bug (or at least invalid and shortsighted design decision)
Esmi, are you the maintainer/developer/author of this theme?
No but I know the theme and I'm part of the theme review team. What you describe is not a bug. As I said previously, it's a perfectly valid design decision. If it does not suit your needs, then perhaps you should consider switching to a different theme.
It's worth discussing these requests with anyone using this theme before they're implemented, as the change may not be in the interest of the greater community.
Themes submitted to the Theme Repository here are specifically forbidden to incorporate any SEO tags in their template files as this is deemed to be plugin territory.
"...then perhaps you should consider switching to a different theme."
LOL, seriously? Never mind Theme Diva, forget I even asked to fix this.
I marked this as "resolved" (more like trolled to utter uselessness by "moderator")
I don't think that was trolling, Esmi understood that you didn't want to create a Child Theme and that this request wasn't going to be implemented and so there wasn't a good option left for you.

SHC Students Create Peer Mentoring Program
MOBILE, Ala -- In fall of 2011, senior psychology students Ashley Derenbecker, Sally Reese, and Caroline Wilson proposed the creation of a peer mentoring program at Spring Hill College. The enlisted the assistance of their Research Experience professor, Dr. Jamie Franco-Zamudio. Franco-Zamudio consulted with Lynda Olen, counselor of the Wellness Center, who thought the program make a great addition to the existing programming at the Wellness Center.
In order to create the job description, application materials, performance evaluation, training workshops, and advertising plan, Franco-Zamudio enlisted the assistance of the fall 2012 Industrial/Organizational Psychology students. Twenty-one students, including Derenbecker, Reese, and Wilson developed a training manual and advertising plan in eight weeks. Reese tested the training workshop material with Olen's assistance.
When asked why they wanted to create the program, Derenbecker replied, "I feel like Spring Hill could use a place students can go talk to other students. I want to give back to my fellow students, and feel this is a great way to do that."
In a similar vein, Wilson said, "Spring Hill has given me many opportunities and I don't want other students to miss those chances because they feel they are not connecting well with the school and the SHC community."
The students will be working on finalizing program details, with a goal of launching it in fall of 2012.
