RANGOON—About 40 ethnic activist groups are calling on the government, ethnic militias and the international community to address a surge in land-grabbing, as companies move into Burma's ethnic regions following recent ceasefire agreements.
But their campaign was off to a rocky start on Thursday when two government committees on land use declined to meet the activists.
Kevin Woods, a researcher with the Netherlands-based Transnational Institute (TNI), said the Land Investment Committee, headed by Union Solidarity Development Party MP Tin Htut, and the Land Allotment and Utilization Scrutiny Committee, chaired by Win Tun Min of the Ministry of Environmental Conservation and Forestry, had turned down requests to meet with the groups.
"They are the two most important committees for us to meet," Woods said on Thursday, as the activists prepared to leave for the Burmese capital Naypyidaw. "If these committees won't meet civil society groups from ethnic areas, where most land disputes are happening, then how do they expect to address these issues?"
Some presidential advisory bodies, such the Myanmar Peace Center and the National Economic and Social Advisory Council, did agree to meet the activists, Woods added.
Some 40 ethnic non-governmental organizations from across Burma and groups based on the border in Thailand held a series of meetings in Rangoon this week to discuss the growing number of land disputes in ethnic regions. The meeting was the first of its kind in Burma and had become possible because of recent political reforms.
During discussions on Thursday, ethnic activists voiced deep concern over the lack of legal protection of land rights of ethnic communities, who are increasingly losing farmland to mining or agro-industry firms.
The 2012 Land Law and other laws, they said, often fail to recognize land tenure of farmers—especially those reliant on traditional shifting agriculture—or local customary law regarding land. Most ethnic villagers struggle to register land ownership as the procedures are too expensive or because they lack the required ID cards.
"Farmers have no land registration papers, no identity documentation, so they have no proof of land ownership," said Su Su Nwe, 88 Generation Students activist. "According to the 2012 Land Law… these farmers can't go to court if their land is taken."
Most of Burma's ethnic minorities live in the border regions rich in mineral wealth, timber, fertile land and rivers suitable for hydropower dam development. The areas are plagued by long-running ethnic rebel insurgencies against the central government.
Burma's powerful military has often grabbed resources from ethnic communities at gunpoint. But after most rebels groups reached ceasefire agreements with the government, there has been an influx of local and foreign companies seeking to build mines or agro-industrial plantations in ethnic areas. Often the firms gain support from the military or, at times, from ethnic militias.
The ethnic activists and community representatives gathered in Rangoon said they feared that peace would lead to a massive surge in land-grabbing, deforestation and the damming of rivers.
"Ethnic nationals are scared of peace, although they want peace. They are worried about losing their land, their forest, their water," said Saw Alex, of the Karen Environmental and Social Action Network (KESAN). "Right now, the government and the armed groups need to gain the trust of the community."
Karen State reportedly experienced a spike in land-grabbing cases after the Karen National Union (KNU) reached a ceasefire agreement with the government in January 2012.
Saw Alex said that any future peace agreement would need to address key questions about land tenure and resource conflict in Karen State. "The Farmland Law goes against KNU policy on land, which follows local customary law. So which rules shall we follow when there is peace?"
He warned that an increase in resource-grabbing by military-supported investment projects could also lead to a flare-up in the ethnic conflict. "If we don't resolve these issues we can't say we are establishing real peace and reconciliation," Saw Alex said.
Activists from Mon and Kachin states, which experienced periods of relative peace due to ceasefires, warned that the Burmese military had used the ceasefires to expand its presence and to push through projects that confiscate resources from local communities.
"Although we talk about peace and reconciliation [after the 1995 ceasefire], we have seen the military government build the Yudana gas pipeline and confiscate a lot of land in Mon State," said Nai Kasauh Mon, of the Human Rights Foundation of Mon Land. "After the pipeline was installed the government has shown no interest in holding further peace talks," he added.
Ashley South, a researcher with the Myanmar Peace Support Initiative, said the ceasefires are having a mixed impact on ethnic communities. "There are many benefits to the peace process for them, they no longer have to fear violence, rape and forced labor by the military," he said. "But at the same time there is a massive increase in unregulated mining and agro-business."
"If these [latter] issues are not addressed it will undermine trust in the peace process," he said, adding, "There is a big role here for civil society groups to raise awareness among government officials, diplomats, donors and researchers."
What are we talking about here? The land, the river and the hills (Suu Kyi said she doesn't care about Letpadaung taung!) in Burma belongs to the greedy Chinese and their backers (the tycoons, the USDP and now even Daw Suu Kyi). Who cares about the stupid farmers (NLD doesn't anymore) as long as Burma can have film festivals on human rights with stars like Wut Hmone Shwe Yee, Sai Sai Kham Leung, Pho La Pyae, Phyo TayZa etc. (I admit I'm not an expert on the light-skinned Burmese entertainment industry LOL)
Daw Suu Kyi would 'talk' about 'rule of law' and ignore the fact that it protects the rich cronies and persecute the poor for daring to protest. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Europeans, Americans, Indians, no colour bar, all 'warmly welcome' to exploit both human and natural resources. Business rules OK?.
Aung Min hasn't offered us anything visible but the government has taken from us too much already. Ethnics need to be aware of foxy behavior since day one.
when you stop fighting with burma government, it means take everything all you can take. You know burmese military tactic , take everything with less expense. If you do not want to fight and let be cheated by them , what else you can do is cry.
Piece Deals
You take this piece, I will take this.
Screw he people. They have nothing and nothing is all they are going to get, and oh! set-kyay and porter-ing.
When are these wonderful, FREE and liberated and highly elevated "MEDIA" people (some were once were true dissidents) come back down to earth and be honest and describes these odious, devious lying, cheating craps as what they are rather than pretending in stupid buzzword like real aping their much admired instruments of the international corporation for propaganda like Reuters, AP and CNN.,
The common people's admiration for their own torturer is breathtaking! And the "Media" 's collusion!
Cease fire does not mean that the penetration of the "market economy" into the occupied areas , land, resources, women , children, animals would not be "seized " for their ( new ruling new class— predatory elite's ) own "interests" . The social and economic security will be ignored totally for the others who through the years of "struggle" worked for liberation and self determination for all the people by the emerging autocrats in Myanmar not only in the "ethnic areas". Anyway, the bamar are also ethnics too. like the non-bamars.

Super Rare Book? "Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu" by Carlson Gracie Jr. and Marcus Silveira
Hey guys - I recently acquired a few MMA books from a guy locally. Among them was one he said was particularly rare. Surprisingly, it's not listed on Amazon or Ebay. I can't even find a single copy of it for sale using Google.
It's called "Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu" by Carlson Gracie, Jr. and Marcus "Conan" Silveira with Chris Lemos. It's an 85 page paperback with nice pictures. On the cover, two bulldogs look menacingly at one another.
There is no ISBN. In fact, page two indicates that the book was printed in Miami in 1996, and was "available exclusively through the authors."
Eventually, I'd like to sell this book. Obviously, it has some value; I just don't know how much.
I'm hopeful that someone on the forums will have information or knowledge about the publication that might help me out. Thanks! - Dan

DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - C'mon in, Alcorn State and Siena. Lace 'em up and learn firsthand what it's like to play in the only NCAA tournament game that inspires more dread than dreams.
It's the play-in, and it's like nothing else - the all-night travel, the missed meals, the quiet arena that feels more like a sideshow than center stage.
"It's been real, real strange," sleepy Alcorn State guard Jeff Cammon said Monday after practice.
For the second straight year, the NCAA has its two lowest seeds playing in Dayton for the 64th spot in the tournament. Tonight's winner will catch another flight to Washington to play No. 1 Maryland on Friday.
The play-in format returned last season when the number of automatic bids expanded to 31. Northwestern State beat Winthrop, and both teams grumbled about the travel hardships.
Alcorn State (21-9) and Siena (16-18) found out fast that just getting there is no fun.
The Braves were surprised to learn Sunday night that they, not Winthrop, were headed to Dayton to play the only team in the tournament with a losing record.
They stayed up all night packing and planning, then got on a bus at 3 a.m. in Mississippi for a two-hour ride to Baton Rouge, where they caught a plane to Atlanta, where they had a brief delay changing flights to Cincinnati, where they caught another bus for an hour-long ride up Interstate 75 to Dayton.
Breakfast? Lunch? Sleep?
"I haven't gotten any sleep," Cammon said.
Neither had the Braves' 72-year-old coach. Davey L. Whitney didn't get to nod off until the team reached its hotel in Dayton, had some roast beef and rice for lunch, then relaxed for a little while before heading to the virtually empty arena for a 5 p.m. practice.
"I never take a nap," Whitney said. "At 20 minutes after 5, I was out. That's why we're late."
They got to the arena five minutes late for their one-hour workout, the lack of sleep showing in their slow gait. Whitney's team has played seven games in 14 days and then had to travel overnight - not exactly conducive to a good showing in tonight's play-in.

COLUMBUS - If Oconee County is going to win its fourth straight state title, the Lady Warriors are going to have to take a different route.
The Warriors have won the last three state titles by winning four straight games. Oconee County failed to score a run and lost 1-0 in eight innings to South Effingham in the Class AAA first round on Thursday at South Commons in Columbus.
"We are going to have to regroup," Oconee County coach Brian Dickens said. "We have to win three games (today). We have to win one at a time."
Dickens knows that it is possible to lose the first game of the elite eight and still win a state championship. The Warriors lost their opener in 1998 only to win six straight games to capture a title.
"We have done it before," said Dickens, whose team plays Northside-Columbus at 9 a.m. "The only thing is this group wasn't a part of it. They are not accustomed to doing this."
South Effingham scored the game's only run in the bottom of the eighth inning when catcher Emily Cheek dropped the ball, which allowed Joni Lynn to score.
"When you don't score in your half of the inning, then you have to live with what happens in the bottom of the inning," Dickens said.
The Warriors didn't generate much offense in the game, managing just a leadoff single in the sixth inning. After Kirsten Rodrigues singled, Oconee County failed to get her past second base.
The Warriors didn't even produce a run in the eighth inning with the help of the international tiebreaker. Following Sarah Vaughn's sacrifice bunt, Hannah Vaughn struck out and Hilary Bird grounded out to end the inning.
"We never got into a rhythm," Dickens said. "We had a hard time getting anything going."
Oconee County pitcher Alana Thomas gave up just one hit, while striking out 10 hitters. Austin Oglesby's single in the sixth inning broke up Thomas' no-hitter.
As good as Thomas was, South Effingham's Allison Kirkland was just as dominant. Kirkland struck out eight and allowed one hit.
Harris County 3, Apalachee 2 (8 innings): Each time Apalachee took a lead, Harris County's Lyndi Duff had an answer.
Duff hit a pair of home runs and Baillie Temples had a game-winning double.
With the game tied at 2 in the bottom of the eighth, Harris County's Ed Oliver opted not to bunt with Temples. She came through with a double to the left-center field fence, driving in the game-winning run.
With the loss, Apalachee plays Hardaway at 9 a.m. in the loser's bracket.
"It was a bunt situation and everyone knew it," Oliver said. "I decided to live and die with her. I had so much confidence in her and felt she would get it done."
Apalachee failed to score in the top of the eighth inning.
Apalachee took a 1-0 lead in the second when Rian Green scored on a wild pitch. Duff then hit a home run to tie the game at 1 in the bottom of the third. Apalachee regained lead in the fifth on Mendy Henson's RBI double. Duff then homered to left field in the bottom of the inning.
Jefferson splits: Gordon Lee scored a run in the sixth and another in the seventh to knock off Jefferson 2-1 in the A winner's bracket semifinal.
Jefferson beat Savannah Country Day 11-1 in a mercy-rule shortened game in the first round. With the loss to Gordon Lee, Jefferson will play the winner of Taylor County and Treutlen at 3 p.m.
Jefferson took a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning on Brianna Caudell's run-scoring single.
Gordon Lee tied the game in the sixth on Jona Taylor's double. Lacy Perry's RBI single in the top of the seventh gave Gordon Lee a 2-1 lead. Jefferson was retired in order in the bottom of the inning.
Jefferson jumped out to a 6-0 lead in the third inning against Savannah Country Day. Jefferson had four hits in the inning. Callie Holloway, who was 3-for-4 in the game, had an RBI double in the third to drive in the first run.
Caudell's home run in the fourth sparked a two-run rally as Jefferson took an 8-0 lead. Caudell and MiMi DuBose both doubled as Jefferson added three more runs in the sixth inning.
Kimberlee Tolbert gave up three hits and a run as she picked up the win. She also had six strikeouts.

Oil at $80 may seem cheap compared to $150, but it's still a lot of money. Crude for November delivery closed above $80 a barrel today. The trend is bullish, and now may be a good time for investors to look at the energy sector.
Last week, we highlighted an income-generating ETF focused on Canadian royalty trusts – a solid way for conservative investors to play surging oil prices. One stock that caught our eye this week is Oceaneering International (NYSE:OII). Texas-based Oceaneering is an oil and gas services firm. The company gets most of its revenue by providing goods and services to companies that are drilling for oil and gas offshore. One of their specialties is deepwater remotely-operated vehicles (ROVs), or "robots" in layman's terms. They also have other revenue sources – for instance, Oceaneering recently landed a contract to build spacesuits for NASA – but most investors view OII as a play on rising energy prices.
Oceaneering has turned a profit every year since 1999, including a record $3.65 a share in 2008. Analysts are forecasting a drop to $3.38 a share for 2009, but they also expect a nice rebound to $3.51 a share in 2010. The shares, while up more than 89% in the past 52 weeks, still appear inexpensive at just 16 times forward earnings. The firm's balance sheet is in good shape with just $140 million in debt and nearly $96 million in free cash.
Oceaneering fills a unique niche in its industry, helping oil and gas explorers drill in deep water locations that can be hundreds of miles offshore. Its services are expensive, but producers like Chevron (NYSE:CVX) and ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) have little choice if they want to replace their reserves. OII is in a market sweet spot.
Next week's (10/29) earnings report could be a near-term catalyst for Oceaneering shares. Analysts are expecting a quarterly profit of 87 cents on revenue of $471 million. OII had a great second quarter, despite tumbling oil and gas prices, beating estimates by 11 cents a share. Investors with a long-term time horizon and a bullish oil outlook would do well to consider Oceaneering. For an indirect play on rising crude prices, go with oil services performer OII.

Double B's BBQ & Burgers opens in former Bunkers in West Allis
You probably could follow your nose to Double B's BBQ & Burgers, the successor to Bunkers in West Allis. The restaurant and bar's Missouri-built smoker for brisket, pork shoulder, chicken and ribs is at work on the patio out back, at 7420 W. Greenfield Ave.
It opened quietly a week ago; Bunkers closed in August. Owner Scott Bunker said the reopening was delayed when the smoker took 12 weeks to build instead of the expected four to six. »Read Full Blog Post
Ridge mesmerizing in Chamber Theatre's 'Underneath the Lintel'
Midway through his extraordinary solo performance in Glen Berger's "Underneath the Lintel" - being staged by the Milwaukee Chamber Theatre under C. Michael Wright's direction - James Ridge asks the audience whether we'd recognize a miracle if we saw one.
I know I've missed a few - "Lintel" suggests we all have - but I have no doubt I saw something akin to one Friday night, in watching as good a one-person show as I've seen anywhere in a long time. »Read Full Article(2)

Mayer designs cotton shirts
The theme of the Cotton Festival this year is "Celebrate the Magic of Cotton and Ville Platte" in recognition of Ville Platte's 150th birthday.
The city's 100th birthday also was held in conjunction with the festival. Amanda Drummond Mayer, an employee at Ville Platte's city hall, designed the shirt this year. After learning of the theme, she said Disney inspired her. She enjoyed doing this shirt just as much as the one she did in the past. Mayer also designed the festival shirt 10 years ago when she was an employee with The Ville Platte Gazette. Mayer has been drawing since she was 12 years old. You can see her work on her "Wall of Art" at her desk at city hall. In the photo of Mayer's drawings, you might recognize Senator Mary Landrieu's face in the center of the drawings or Mayor Bill Jeanmard to the right. You can also see the color portrait of one of her drawings and the black and white drawing next to it. Her co-workers said she is very talented. You can purchase a shirt by calling Kelli Buller at 363-6367.

The words "creepy" and "beautiful" rarely describe the same thing at the same time. But what you will see at the Redux Contemporary Art Center is a fascinating juxtaposition that can be described by these two words at the same time.
Be ready to all at once love and be disturbed by Kimberly Witham's "Wunderkammer" exhibit, opening on Friday with an Artist's Talk starting at 5 p.m. immediately followed by a reception from 6-8:30 p.m. Both the talk and the reception are free and open to the public.
"Witham's images explore a boundary between natural history, curiosity cabinets and man's impact on the environment around us. She also intends to present, for the first time ever, recently completed taxidermy sculpture(s). Witham attended the American Institute of Taxidermy in the summer of 2013, where she received a Small Mammal and Bird Certificate," says Stacy Huggins, executive director of Redux. "Witham has meticulously documented the ephemera of recently deceased wildlife that she finds near her suburban home in New Jersey, complemented by household items, good design and an aesthetic that hearkens to slick magazine layouts. The images look peaceful or even lusciously beautiful at first, until the viewer begins to look closer at the creatures that inhabit the image, a moment in time captured and preserved by Witham's camera."
To find out more about Witham's interesting process, check out her blog, www.roadsideresurrections.wordpress.com, where she has documented her first creation, a squirrel she named Buster.
Redux is located at 136 Saint Philip St. Call 722-0697 or go to www.reduxstudios.org.
'Boston Marriage'
"In the beginning of the 20th century, the term Boston marriage referred to women who were 'independent of men,' " Courtney Bates of Threshold Repertory Theatre explains in reference to their upcoming play by David Mamet called "Boston Marriage," opening this weekend.
Bates gives us a brief synopsis of the play: "Anna and Claire, two 'women of fashion' scheme to obtain the objects of their desire. Anna, maintaining an upper class Victorian lifestyle as the mistress of a wealthy man, is determined to woo her lifelong love Clair back home. Claire, though, has a very different plan. Throw in a devilishly entertaining Irish maid and you have what the New York Post calls 'One of the funniest American comedies in years.' "
This humorous play gives the audience a unique perspective regarding females and female intimacy during the conservative era of the Victorian age.
Tonight for the opening, Pink Dot Beauty Bar will be on-site displaying makeup and skincare products and doing a gift bag give-away to the first 50 attendees. There will also be hors d'oeuvres and half-priced wine at 7 p.m.
"Boston Marriage" will be put on Thursdays through Sundays through Feb. 16. All evening shows are at 8 p.m. with Sunday matinees at 3 p.m. Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for seniors, and $10 for students and military persons. Tickets can be purchased online at www.thresholdrep.org or by calling 277-2172.
Threshold Repertory Theatre is located at 84½ Society St.
'Too Many Sopranos'
If you haven't heard of it yet, "Too Many Sopranos" is a new opera that has become quite popular with many opera companies and programs.
Starting this weekend, the College of Charleston Opera program is presenting four performances of the comedic opera.
"The story will take audiences on a journey with four divas traversing the worlds of Heaven, Hell and everything else in between," says Nandini McCauley, media resources coordinator at the College of Charleston.
McCauley provides a brief synopsis of the humorous opera: "The premise is that the Heavenly Choir has room for only one more soprano, when a group of four divas show up at the Pearly Gates. St. Peter tells them that they must audition, and all hell breaks loose!
"After the sopranos audition, a decision cannot be made as to whom the position should be awarded. If only there were more male singers to allow for all of the sopranos to be in the choir. The little known 'Redemption Clause' is utilized, allowing the divas to recruit men for the chorus, so they must go to Hell, where all of the tenors and basses are."
Shows will be performed Saturday, Monday and Jan. 31 at 8 p.m., with the final show on Feb. 2 at 3 p.m. Performances will take place at the Recital Hall of the Simons Center for the Arts, 54 Saint Philip St. Tickets are $20, $10 for College of Charleston students, and may be purchased online at music.cofc.edu or at the door (cash and check only).
For more information call 953-5927.

Christina Harris | Jan 25, 2013 | North America: Wisconsin Special Olympics Wisconsin (SOWI) athlete Alex Guild, 22 of De Pere, was recently selected to compete in snowshoeing at the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games in PyeongChang, South Korea. Alex is the only representative from Team USA who is competing in the longest three snow shoeing races offered at the World Games. Alex will compete in the 5K, 1,600 meter and 4x400 meter relay.

Skip to comments.Female Muslim medics 'disobey hygiene rules'
Posted on 02/02/2008 7:56:22 PM PST by camerakid400
Muslim medical students are refusing to obey hygiene rules brought in to stop the spread of deadly superbugs, because they say it is against their religion.
Women training in several hospitals in England have raised objections to removing their arm coverings in theatre and to rolling up their sleeves when washing their hands, because it is regarded as immodest in Islam.
(Excerpt) Read more at telegraph.co.uk ...
I won't say it...ok I will, coming to America next.
Britian needs to get their muslims under control.
P.C. will kill you before the germs!
Good enough reason to kick them out of the country... unless they promise, on pain of death, to limit their practice of "medicine" to their own ilk!
Fire their asses!
Simple....muzzie doctors treat muzzie patients....no hand washing for you....no alcohol based disinfectants.....and lots of head and arm coverings to spread germs. I guess the mortality rate will go up a bit ....but those raisins are sooooo enticing.
Great I can see it now muslim doctors trying to shinny into a modest half body condom.
Some one has to draw a line these poeple will be spreading disease like its the 7th century all over again........oh wait thats the century they like.
Imagine coming out of anesthesia and seeing this.
Think of it as evolution in action.
Or this.
That would be creepy.
Thanks for the ping.
Oh man, THAT would probably knock the patient right out again!
Sooner than you think, my friend.
Toss 'em out on their butts.
muslim and health ping
Aptly said. Fire the rest of their germ-ridden carcasses as well. Get them out of here; keep them out of here.
It they don't like living in the civilized world, they are free to leave. They can go practice what they call medicine in their own filthy third world hellholes and let the rest of the world progress.
Of course, it's not unheard of for modesty to take priority over human lives for them. If they value it so little, why the heck to they want to become doctors?.
All this is is another testing of the waters. Every once in a while they test just to see how far they can push us. Every time we cave, it shows them that they are just that much closer to takeover; the time is almost ripe.
Then fire them.
I'm sure they need doctors in Turdistan. Send 'em back there.
There's an Islamic Medical Association?
That must be a truly scientific group. Muzzie logic in action.
Muslims give reasons they emigrated to the West to learn Western medicine, but don't choose to practice it. More signs that the pretext for emigrating is just a front.
You know, in Egypt, they really do still have belly dancing; this is so much the opposite.
I know an Egyptian and when FIT TV has that show Shimmy about belly dancing, I thought, oh, they still don't do that over there but indeed, he told me they still do.
It's the exact opposite of this other story.
I give. I'll take Burkhas for $500.
LOL! Good one ...
Do they bathe fully dressed?
What? They wash their stomachs to prevent the spread of infection?
"CONTROLLING dangerous infections such as MRSA and Clostridium difficile is a top priority for NHS workers."
Feb 2 2008 by Andrew Baldwin, Huddersfield Daily Examiner
COMMENT SNIPPET: "But irrespective of where the blame lies, the battle is on to curb the bugs.
Everyone has a part to play, visitors as well as hospital staff.
We all must observe hospital hygiene regulations as closely as possible.
Using antibacterial hand gel before entering a ward should become compulsory."
incredible, thanks!
"You're fired."
"Hey Akbar,you really should have that tooth looked after"
I wouldn't have a problem with an Islamic Medical Assn. if they followed federal health codes and didn't seek to modify western medicine to adapt to Islamic law.
Stuck..... in the 14th century.
They won't wash their hands properly in a hospital, but they insist on washing their feet in airport sinks.
This is roughly equivalent to the law-school example of the blind diamond cutter.
Fire them.
"Muslim medical students are refusing to obey hygiene rules brought in to stop the spread of deadly superbugs, because they say it is against their religion."
You just can't make this stuff up.
Amazing. Imagine if you were the patient and you die of germs from this "mooslum".
Medical students and doctors scrub hands, finger nails, wrists and arms to elbows to lessen the skin bacteria we all have. Then they glove up to mid forearm, double glove even as they don't want to get aids from a patient from a glove nick during surgery. This is basic for present sanitary standards. If Muslim women doctors are too modest to wash in front of males, they might ask to wash first or last when the males are not in the wash area. No wash, no working on patients.
If I draw a muslim female doc or nurse in the VA hospital, she aint touchin' me. Too many mos in the VA system anyway. Actually one would be too many as far as I am concerned.
#44, beat me to it.
Can I refuse a Muzzi health care professional or is that illegal discrimination?
I've watched the govt bend time and time again in Britian for the Muslims. It'll be interesting to see if they bend on something so basic as doctors washing their hands.
They need to detain, deport, and defenestrate if necessary..
These people would take the world back to the dark ages if we let them!
I still don't get the "washing the feet after they fart" thing. I've seen several sources for it. It makes no damn sense!

Last week's shock poll bringing Herman Cain into third place needed confirmation before we could be sure that Cain was a serious contender.
Two new polls of Florida Republicans by SurveyUSA for WFLA and by War Room Logistics seem to provide that confirmation and more: Both put Herman Cain in second in the key early primary state.
These are not national polls, so they aren't directly comparable with the last four major national polls, three of which put Rick Perry first, and the fourth which put Perry in second behind Mitt Romney. But that fourth poll seemed to show Perry voters giving Cain another look, and these two bolster that theory.
Facts: SurveyUSA polled 500 likely GOP primary voters, mobile and landline users handled, MoE 4.5. WRL polled 1331 likely voters by phone, and the Republican-only subsample had a MoE of 4.2. The overall poll was weighted, but WRL tell me only the overall results were weighted, but not the Republican results.
In WRL polling of Florida, Herman Cain gains 18.8 points to land at 23.7%, in second behind Romney who gained 3.2 points to land at 28.2%. The big loser was Rick Perry, who fell off the map, losing 15.5% to fall to 9.1%, behind even Newt Gingrich's 9.8%.
SurveyUSA gives the same top four. Romney leads at 27%, Cain follows at 25%, Perry falls way off to 13%, and Gingrich ends up at 6%.
Fascinating to me is the landline/mobile split in the SUSA poll. In a traditional poll, Romney would have led 34-22-14. But mobile users broke for Cain, giving him 20 to Romney's 13 and Perry's 11, which left the overall result so close. Romney's remaining edge in the poll ends up being from "Moderate" voters, as "Very Conservative" and "Conservative" voters were about evenly split between Romney and Cain, but "Moderates" broke 34-19 for Romney.
Florida of course made headlines for Cain already when he won a straw poll there, but now we have two independent polls appearing to confirm a genuine swell of support for him there. The next national poll could be a critical moment for Rick Perry. If he is confirmed to be crashing nationally, he may have little time to recover, or be relegated to irrelevance like Tim Pawlenty and Michele Bachmann before him.

Election Day November 3 in Missoula County – Last Minute Reminders
Tomorrow is Election Day for Missoula County!
Tomorrow is Election Day for Missoula County!
The Missoula City Council received their taxable value numbers from the Department of Revenue this week and some good news came from the report back.
A Missoula city ordinance against using hand-held mobile phones while driving took effect in February of 2013, and already, members of city council are concerned that it is outdated.
A proposed ordinance eliminating 90-minute parking limits in downtown Hamilton narrowly passed its first reading at the city council.
Drawing on work done since the first of the year, the Hamilton Downtown Master Plan will be officially presented to the City Council Tuesday evening, June 17.
On Thursday, January 2, U.S. District Federal court judge Edward Lodge ruled against the city of Boise over a set of anti-solicitation laws. Lodge's ruling has shaken up legislation in cities with similar laws including Missoula.
While many city and state employees were taking the day off for Columbus Day, some Missoula city council members were busy trying to improve the cultural relationship the city shares with the Salish-Kootenai tribe in St. Ignatius.
In a near unanimous decision, the Missoula City Council voted 10 to 1 on Monday, September 9, to retroactively create a restrictive ordinance that directly hampered plans to relocate the Union Gospel Mission from Toole Avenue to West Broadway.
The major changes at Hamilton's American Legion Park continue, with Phase Two of its reconstruction scheduled for the next couple of months.
Hamilton's Mayor Jerry Steele signed the paperwork to spend about $103,000 to finish the proposed changes to the town's major downtown park...
Kettlehouse manager responds to city council decision.

The rise of rookie Jacoby Ford has at least partially obscured a problem with the Raiders' passing game that goes beyond their selection of quarterbacks.
Since the start of 2007 season, the only real consistency when the Raiders passed the ball came on those plays designed to go to tight end Zach Miller. Miller has been the Raiders' top receiver in each of the three years, with his receptions climbing from 44 to 56 to 66. A Pro Bowl alternate a year ago, Miller looked to be ready to move up another rung this year when Indianapolis fixture Dallas Clark went down for the season.
Oakland quarterbacks from Josh McCown to Daunte Culpepper to JaMarcus Russell to Bruce Gradkowski to Jason Campbell have said that Miller is the best and safest option on the field. He's been the safety blanket for Raiders quarterbacks. Unfortunately for the Raiders, Miller's fourth season has been stalled by injuries.
He still leads the team with 37 receptions for 476 yards, but since a Week 7 win over Denver, Miller has just four receptions for 20 yards and no touchdowns. Miller missed one of those games -- a 23-20 overtime win over Kansas City -- and clearly at less than 100 percent in the others.
The first issue was called an "arch" injury with Miller said was a torn plantar fascia. Just as he was recovering from that problem, Miller was injured in a 33-17 loss to Miami with a deep contusion to his right leg coach Tom Cable described as "serious." It happened following a Chris Clemons interception of a Gradkowski pass on the return, with Miller saying he had been hit both high and low by Miami blockers.
With Miller at less than 100 percent, it has taken a toll on the passing game in that the only other true tight end on the roster is Brandon Myers, as second-year player with nine catches for 69 yards and 13 over the past two seasons.
"I think it does hurt," Cable said of Miller's absence. "He's a heck of a player. Not to take anything away from Brandon Myers, he's a heck of a player. He hasn't had the opportunities Zach has had to catch the ball and he's capable, but it would sure be nice to get Zach healthy."
-- Tom Cable thinks the Raiders learned enough about themselves to get off the deck following a two-game losing streak, revert to the form that saw them climb above .500 in November for the first time seven years, and make a race of it in the AFC West. Whether they're up to the task physically is another matter.
When Cable met the media Monday, quarterback Bruce Gradkowski was getting an MRI and the quarterback wasn't expecting good news. He fears a reinjury of his right shoulder, a third-degree separation that already cost him five weeks. That would effectively end Gradkowski's season with six games remaining.
Cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha was having another MRI on his right ankle, interesting in that he said following a 33-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins that doctors told him he couldn't make the sprain any worse by playing. Nickel back Chris Johnson wasn't sure if he'd be ready to play after missing the Miami game with a groin injury, necessitating a brutal trial-by-fire against rookie fifth-round pick Walter McFadden. Tight end Zach Miller, slowed by a torn plantar fascia for the past two weeks, is still dealing with that condition as well as a "severe" contusion to his right leg.
It's clear that Jason Campbell, benched twice already for performance and a third time entering the Miami game after Cable had already declared him the starter, will reassume that role. That is, unless No. 3 quarterback Kyle Boller gets a shot.
While no one expects that to happen, Cable sounded as if he hadn't ruled it out when asked if Campbell and Boller would compete for the job. "I don't think so," Cable said. "Wednesday I'll be able to give you a more definitive answer."
Cable said his message to the team was direct and to the point. "As we talked about, we got ourselves into a little mess here for two weeks," Cable said. "We can get ourselves out of it and have no doubt that we will. But we have to get back to I think doing the little things, the little things that were getting us where we wanted to go."
The players who will be available to work on those little things are still to be determined.
--Wide receiver Jacoby Ford has three touchdowns on the season, but got his first as a receiver with a 44-yard catch from QB Bruce Gradkowski in the second quarter.
Ford made a nice adjustment on a sideline route that enabled him to both stay in bounds and be headed straight for the goal line down the right sideline. It put the Raiders up 14-13 when they had done little else besides Ford's 101-yard kickoff return and receiving touchdown.
"I was really excited about the pass, to have my first reception touchdown," Ford said. "Just to go out there and make a great play, just to keep the game close, keep us alive, I was just really proud I put myself in that position."
Ford later caught a 52-yard pass from Gradkowski, essentially stealing an interception away from Chris Clemons, to set up a 30-yard field goal by Sebastian Janikowski.
"Jacoby continues to do things, continues to make plays," coach Tom Cable said. "He got the game started off, got a couple of nice blocks and hit a seam and finished it. He shows up on offense, too. I think you can liken him to Darren (McFadden) a little bit in that he has the ability to get us started and be explosive."
--After gaining just 16 yards on 12 carries against Miami and with 77 yards on 30 carries in the last two games, Oakland has fallen from second in the NFL in rushing at over 162 yards per game to fifth at 139.7. Most troublesome is that McFadden has essentially run into a wall. Coupled with a 10-carry, 14-yard game against Pittsburgh, McFadden has 16 yards on 18 carries in his last two games.
Part of it has been Oakland's predictability on offense. Miami defenders talked of setting the edge, denying McFadden the outside, then cleaning up in the middle. "If teams are smart, if they have good defensive coordinators, they are going to load up against the run when they play us," right tackle Langston Walker said.
--Reserve running back and special teams player Rock Cartwright was despondent after the game for failing to block a punt by Miami's Brandon Fields on the first possession of the fourth quarter. Both Cartwright and Fields thought the kick was blocked, with Fields even looking backward only to discover it traveled 41 yards and was never touched.
"I put this game on me because a blocked punt changes the whole momentum of the game and gives us momentum," Cartwright said. "I wasn't accountable to my teammates to today. I just feel I let the team down. Let the special teams coach down. They put a lot of trust in me. So put this one on me."
Said linebacker and special teamer Sam Williams: "He dove past it. He could have just tackled the punter he got there so quick."
--QB Jason Campbell has a completion percentage of 54.7 through eight games -- seven starts -- after being a 62.4 percent passer in 1,430 attempts in 45 starts with Washington from 2007 through 2009.
--RB Darren McFadden has just 16 yards on his last 18 carries over two games but caught a career-high seven passes for 63 yards against Miami and has 33 for the season, surpassing his previous high of 29 as a rookie in 2008.
--FB Marcel Reece lost a fumble after taking a handoff from Darren McFadden on a draw play out of the Wildcat formation, the first of his career.
--TE Zach Miller did not have a reception for more than eight yards in the month of November.
--WR Louis Murphy had four catches for 73 yards against Miami, his most productive game since catching five passes for 119 yards in Week 3 against Arizona.
--WR Jacoby Ford is averaging 20.0 yards per catch on 16 receptions, the most among NFL rookies with 15 or more receptions.
--LB Rolando McClain is tied for sixth among NFL rookies with 57 tackles and had a season-best eight stops (seven unassisted) against Miami.
--CB Walter McFadden, who won the job as the Raiders nickel back because of an injury to Chris Johnson and a strong week of practice, gave up six passes for 113 yards and had a holding penalty against Miami.
--SS Tyvon Branch leads the Raiders with 76 tackles and had his third sack of the season against Miami.
--DT Desmond Bryant, a second-year player and an undrafted rookie out of Harvard, had the first two sacks of his career within the last three games.
--WR Darrius Heyward-Bey did not catch a pass in the month of November in three games after having the biggest day of his career (5 receptions, 105 yards, 1 TD) on Oct. 31.
--P Shane Lechler had a net punting average of 26.8 against Miami, his lowest since a 26.8 net against the Indianapolis Colts on Dec. 16, 2007.
--PK Sebastian Janikowski has an average kickoff length of 67.9, the highest of his career, and a career-best 25 touchbacks.
QB Bruce Gradkowski was 17 of 32 for 252 yards, but had two key interceptions and showed little consistency. Jacoby Ford stands in the way of a failing grade because of a 44-yard touchdown reception and a 52-yard catch that set up a field goal -- both made with remarkable adjustments to a ball in flight. Tight end Zach Miller (one catch, 6 yards) is hurting and a non-factor.
Take away a 13-yard run by Ford on a reverse and the Raiders ran the ball 11 times and gained three yards. Darren McFadden had eight carries for two yards and didn't get into positive yardage until the fourth quarter. Fullback Marcel Reece carried once out of the wildcat, never got hold of the ball and lost a fumble.
PASS DEFENSE: D-minus
The only hint of a pass rush came from safeties Tyvon Branch and Michael Huff on blitzes, and this was against a team with a banged-up offensive line and stationary quarterback returning from a knee injury.
Cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha gave up four catches for 65 yards and had a holding penalty. Nickel back Walter McFadden had a nightmarish game, giving up six catches for 113 yards, and including a holding penalty, five third-down conversions.
RUSH DEFENSE: D-plus
Miami had no gain longer than eight yards until Ricky Williams broke free on a 45-yard touchdown run for the final points to put the game away. However, the Dolphins did continue to get positive yards, with the Raiders seldom playing on the opposite side of the line of scrimmage. The end result? Miami had 49 rushes for 186 yards and held the ball for 41:38.
Ford's 101-yard opening kickoff return of the game was his second touchdown return of the season, but that was about it. Miami's average drive started at the 40-yard line, in part because of turnovers but also in part because Oakland's kicking game couldn't swing things in their favor. Rock Cartwright narrowly missed a fourth-quarter blocked punt that could have provided a spark.
After the Steelers debacle, you'd expect the Raiders to hit the field with some enthusiasm and fire, especially defensively, where they had been rock solid during a three-game win streak. Instead, even with Ford's opening act on the kick return, Oakland looked a step behind all day.
Miami successfully ran a Wildcat at Oakland, while the Raiders tried one that wasn't nearly as effective in return. No great scheme issues, only a team that wasn't ready to play. The handling of the quarterback switch from Jason Campbell to Gradkowski was clumsy and confusing to all involved.
