Arkansas QB Derby settles in after Allen's injury - 0 Comments
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas backup quarterback AJ Derby made the best of a difficult situation when he was suddenly forced to play against Southern Mississippi.
Now the question is will Derby be in control of the offense when the Razorbacks travel to Rutgers next week?
Arkansas (3-0) pulled away in the second half behind Derby and the running back duo of Jonathan Williams and Alex Collins on Saturday — beating the struggling Golden Eagles 24-3.

As with every other "diet" I have been on for the past 30 years, I come to the place where I stall. I get complacent having experienced whatever success I have by that time. I become 'tired' from working soooo hard and having so little to show for it (I know, poor me
). I stall out, hit that god-awful plateau that we professionals commisserate about.
Well I have been there for the better part of a month. While there I have discoved somethings about myself:
1) I am not on a 'diet'; I know in the deepest recesses of my mind, that I am experiencing a lifestyle change. 2) I have not become complacent. I think I have tried to be complacent but again, somewhere in the deepest recesses of my mind, I know I can see this through; get over the hump; bring myself back into positive, healthy thinking.
3) I know from past experience compared to what I am trying to do now, I have never, ever, worked that "hard" to achieve so little. How arrogant am I! Sure, it is hard work. But I have achieved much!!! I have lost almost 20 lbs in just over 2 months. I am going to undertake a 5K run 13 days. And I am still wanting to go back to the gym and kick it into high gear!
4) I didn't 'hit a plateau' I quit trying as hard as I was trying on day 1. If I am not where I wanted to be at this time, it is my own fault. I got me here, I will help myself back out.
As the Dr. says, you didn't gain this weight overnight; don't expect to lose it overnight.
I am on my way: back to the gym, back to healthy eating, back to the scale regardless of the number it shows!
Happy May!

Maybe your body and metabolism just needs a little stall time to readjust to all the changes lately. The less we weigh, the less calories we can consume and keep losing weight. Maybe you have lost 20 lbs. but are still eating the same amount of calories that you were when you first started. In that case, your calories will need adjusted to coincide with your lower weight now. Or you could increase your exercise, or both and get out of that plateau.

Great thoughts
Enjoy the gym! Maybe download some new songs to your iPod (if you have one and use it when you work out) - it usually helps me reenergize.
Does anybody really think that they didn't get what they had because they didn't have the talent or the strength or the endurance or the commitment?

20 lbs in two months is AWESOME progress. Just keep doing what you're doing. There will be times where you see no change, but just keep going. Don't change anything just yet.

Just remember that NO change is better than a GAIN- console yourself with this thought, not with food! I think we sometimes look for excuses to "throw in the towel". Don't do it. This is a way of life, not a diet. Stay strong!

I'm not familiar with posting replies but after reading your post on the dreaded Plateau I thought I might share my plateau busting tips. I've lost 54 pounds this year so far and 64 since Christmas. I had never successfully lost weight before. I'm doing what you are doing, "Lifestyle Change". Several times I've hit the plateau and have spent a lot of time reading and trying out different techniques to fix it. I feel like I've finally hit what is needed and my loss has been pretty consistent since. I even lost 2 pounds while on vacation recently.
I think your body just becomes adjusted to our new way of exercise, eating and calorie amounts and tries to hang on to what we have thinking we are starving ourselves.
First we have to make sure the plateau isn't because we start getting complacent. Not counting the calories as well as we did before, or stop measuring and going by eye what we think is the right measures. Also, slowing down on the exercising and not getting as much in as we did when we first started our diet. This is something to look at first. Now if those are all the same and on par here is what I do:
I change up my exercise. I try something different or swap around the order of my exercises. Kind of shaking the body up and getting it out of our predictable pattern. To be honest I think this helps but doesn't always fix it just by doing this.
My main trick has to do with my calorie count. I'm not sure what your daily calories are but for me I like to have mine at 1400. I don't want to bring it too low or too high. Problem is if I do this everyday my body gets used to it. To trick your body I mix up the calories. I want to keep the calories averaged to 1400 but each day I mix up the calorie amounts. For example, take your daily calorie 1400 multiply it by 7 which equals 9800 calories. This is the amount I wish to hit for the week but I change it up so that each day is different with some low days and some high days. I always take one day for a high calorie day. It is good for tricking your body as well as giving you a chance to have something you like without feeling like your cheating and making the rest of the week easier to deal with.
Here is my example week:
day 1 1400
day 2 1600
day 3 1200
day 4 1500
day 5 1300
day 6 1600
day 7 1200
By doing this your body can't adapt to a lower calorie diet and the weight loss remains consistent. Feel free to look at my weight history and diet calendar. Thou while I was on vacation I didn't post my daily calories.
Now I've lost 15 pounds in the last 6 weeks by doing it this way. For me this is very good as I'm disabled and the amount of exercise I can do isn't as much as someone else. I'm also pretty sedentary due to my health issues. I sometimes have to break up my work outs into small increments until I get to what I want for the day. I do at least 1 hour a day on a recumbent bike with pool exercises at the YMCA about 3 times a week. When I need to switch up the exercise I'll swap to walking and doing Richard Simmons Sweatin' video as his are easier and I can manage to get through 1 play through. I wish I could exercise more but I've had 3 back surgeries and my pain level is pretty high.

In one of the most spectacular and swift reversals of fortune in the entertainment industry, EMI Records said yesterday that it had ended its agreement with Mariah Carey, who has had more No. 1 songs than any musical artist except Elvis Presley and the Beatles.
EMI signed Ms. Carey only last April to one of the music industry's most lucrative contracts, guaranteeing a reported $80 million for five albums.
But after disappointing sales of the first album Ms. Carey delivered, ''Glitter,'' released last fall, EMI's Virgin Records division decided to cut its losses. It will pay Ms. Carey $28 million to free itself from the high costs of producing and promoting any more albums, the company said.
The cancellation was the latest setback for Ms. Carey, the 31-year-old singer who has battled highly publicized emotional problems in the last year, including a breakdown that led to a stay at a rehabilition center.
Her debut film, also titled ''Glitter,'' bombed on its release. Her romance with a popular Latin singer collapsed. And the girlish charm that captivated fans and critics a decade ago hardened in recent interviews as she cast aspersions on rival performers.

Table of Contents
Introduction & Arcs
Rules & Characters
On the world of Arcanii, magic is common. Everyone is capable of some form of magic, and it has benefited the world. Man, machine and magic have created a wonderful world. Technology and nature respect each other and thrive together, magic and science and politics intermingle with each other, and man interacts with the other living beings on Arcanii in relative harmony. Man, being dominant to most other races, has grown to be the largest race, dominant and powerful, and humanity has populated a large portion of the planet. The civilization of humanity has, as expected, developed into separate kingdoms though. Seven of them. The seven great kingdoms are on friendly terms, for the most part, with only sparse conflict happening on occasion. However, this wasn't always the case.
From 1543 BGR (Before the Great Revelation) to 124 AGR (After the Great Revelation), war was rampant. Before the creation of the kingdoms, the different colonies of man used magic, metal and the mind to battle one another for power, influence and territory. Some portions of humanity were made extinct, others went into hiding, and the rest continued the bloodthirsty lifestyle of savagery. However, the world was revolutionized when seven leaders from seven tribes decided to come together in a summit. Historical documents on what transpired during the meeting are not available to the public, but what is sure is that once the meeting was ended, the leaders had come to a profound revelation and Arcanii was changed forever. Over the next hundred years, war was brought to a halt, the different colonies merged, and the seven great kingdoms were founded. Time passed and all seemed well, with the current era began officially in 200 AGR.
In this current age, dubbed "The New Arcanii Era", most people live in peace, going through a rather mediocre life of schedules, habits and normalcy. Magic and Science have advanced to bring the world into a Pre-Industrial Age, with advances in the magitek that is their form of technology. Children go to school to become productive, but common, members of society, and those who prefer a more professional occupation attend an academy for higher education. One such institution is The Arcane Academy of Madrigalia for Further Education, commonly just called The Academy of Madrigalia or Madrigalia Academy, located in the City of Madrigalia within the Kingdom of Catur. Here future adventurers, warriors, and scientists are taught the ways of Arcanii's Magic in order to prepare them for an exciting job in Essencology (Ess - En - Col - Ogy), the occupation of a trained combatant, or perhaps something more obscure. Regardless, many budding students are taken in when applicants are around the age of 15 to teach them for the next 8 years.
It is 532 AGR, in the Month of Brightflower, and the Madrigalia Academy is beginning it's final exams for it's current, last year students. All seems normal enough on the surface, as the students begin their exams, but something strange is afoot. For one, rumors of a secret order rising up are beginning to circulate. Not to mention, the former headmaster of the Anitea Institution of High Sorcery has been imprisoned for treason, so the school is temporarily without a headmaster. School officials do not know what prompted the arrest of the headmaster, and anything about the investigation is being kept secret. What is happening? What did the headmaster do? What is the secret order? Who is a part of it? Is the headmaster involved? And is this a sign of something larger?

And beyond just telling us the who, where, what and how of her life, she's extremely revealing about her process. Not just some of the deepest parts of her personality (as Kate says in the book, "Life's better without secrets,"), like her diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder, but also the internal process of what it was like to be here. She cracks open her heart and shows us the internal realities of growing-up and adulthood prior to transitioning, many ongoing touchstones of what it was like knowing she was "girl," how she related to it and how she either leaned into it or away from it with facial hair, women, weight and clothing. Her lifelong battle with anorexia, how she learned to starve herself and then how she learned to think she could be pretty while being voluptuous. What it is like as a cutter, the pain and relief and how she used it to get through. Vivid plans for suicide attempts.
Solicited Advice: Should I Email Her?
Hi Bevin,
So I am not sure if you put your email up on your website so that people could ask you for love advice, but I am going to try anyways! So here is the situation — I am a girl who is in my early twenties, my best friend goes to college up in Colorado and she developed a good friendship with a lesbian who I actually knew as well through years of playing club volleyball. I have gone to CO each year to visit my friend and the past two years I have gone there I have always flirted/made eyes at this girl (especially after a few drinks), and I developed a crush on her last year…
Window Shopping With Adam and Eve
A friend of mine got me this in pink once. Adam & Eve has it in black or red for $9.95. It's great because it sticks to itself and if you're not a very good knot person (unlike me, I was a Girl Scout) and want to play with bondage it is a great tool. **Safety first! Always have good scissors on hand–medical scissors recommended. And play with a safe word.**
I have to say that in lieu of having someone to play or have sex with, bondage tape makes a great make-shift halter bra when you need maximal cleavage and your back free of straps. Just get a friend to help you and wrap a fairly tight circle around your neck and under your boobs a bunch of time. I have a really cute deep cleavage halter dress and this is a must-have accessory.
I also like bondage tape for the cute stripes and criss crosses you can make along your body for costume purposes.

Shopper alert! Will labor strike at L.A. ports mean bare shelves?
The holiday inventory is already in place, but goods for the post-Christmas sales are bottled up off the coast of Los Angeles, as container ships from Asia go unattended due to a six-day labor strike.
(Page 2 of 2)
At issue is a set of contracts that expired in June 2010. Union members say managers at many terminal companies have been clandestinely shifting jobs to lower-wage workers in other states and countries. The companies deny the allegations. The companies, for their part, want the new contracts to expressly rule out the requirement that jobs be provided or retained even if there is no work to perform – a pro-union practice known as featherbedding.
Skip to next paragraphSubscribe Today to the Monitor
As the strike ripples down the logistic/supply chain, southern California truckers are among those starting to feel the pinch.
"With no goods to move, these drivers are literally sitting idle and getting no paychecks. After awhile, that begins to make a dent in the Christmas retail stores here, which aren't benefitting from [the truckers'] purchases," says Alex Cherin, executive director of the Harbor Trucking Association, which represents about 8,000 port drivers.
The strike began Nov. 27, when one of the smallest units of ILWU – with 800 members – walked off the job at the largest terminal operator at the Port of Los Angeles, APM Terminals Pacific Ltd. It expanded the next day when members of other unions chose not to cross picket lines. The strike has crippled the ports because of support from ILWU dockworkers, which has 50,000 members on the West Coast, Hawaii, and Canada.
Mr. Cherin has written to Mario Cordero, a member of the Long Beach Board of Harbor Commission, asking him to help end the impasse.
"As of today, the gates at most of the terminals in the San Pedro Bay Port complex are closed – preventing these 8,000 drivers from picking up containers and being compensated for their work. In turn, the warehousing and processing workers that stand downstream in the supply chain are being equally impacted," says the letter sent Dec. 4. "In short, this closure continues to have a devastating impact on all facets of the maritime industry."
The strike is affecting only terminals where the ILWU has contract disputes. Cruise ships, for instance, may still dock.
The ports have their own reasons for wanting the strike to be resolved. "We need to get a resolution to this because of the possible economic damage, not just because these goods aren't delivered in time, but that all the workers down the line from here are affected," says Phillip Sanfield, spokesman for the Port of Los Angeles. "And the unreliability of a port is an issue affecting where shippers want to bring their goods in the future."
While disruptions at ports will stall deliveries, causing chaos and uncertainty for those moving and marketing inventories of jeans, jackets, and electronics for thousands of stores, some analysts caution against overestimating the overall dollar cost of a strike such as this one. It is wrong to assume that delayed or diverted cargo must be written off as if it will never be delivered, says Jock O'Connell, an international trade economist. The two ports do more than $300 billion in business a year.

Dark and yet vibrant. There's just something about the emo style.
Hi, I'm Claire Wacey and I'm a personal stylist, and today I'm going to give you some great style tips. For anything you don't find in these videos, go to my website and check out all the tips I have there. Hi! Today, I'm going to talk to you about how to dress emo.
Emo is a really fantastic way for us to dress. It's really exciting and it mixes lots of different elements together and I personally think it takes a lot of influence from the goth look but it makes it much more fun and much more exciting and I think, a lot more friendly. So what it is, is it's dressing lots of different black layering but then injecting really vibrant colour and I really think a great example of that is this top.
It looks fantastic with either a skirt or a little rah-rah skirt, some black leggings, some cool trainers, but it injects that really vibrant colour. And then, what you might want to do to add to that emo look is to get something really really colorful like this scarf and it's got a bit of a cartoon print on it as well and just mix that in with it. Just because it makes it a lot more exciting, you can even use this as a waist belt as well or tie it around your jeans to make it more exciting.
What it is, is injecting that fun, exciting, vibrant colour and it's a much more friendly look as well. Another really key look for emos is to go for those stripes. So I've got the stripes in the top, I've got the cartoons there but you could go for stripes tie.
So just wear a plain black t-shirt, add in a really cool stripe tie. It's got all this detailing on it as well. Just to give that injection of colour but also excitement, and if you want to take it to the next level, why not even try adding in some fab vibrant braces, a black t-shirt and then mixing in this clashing red and black tie together.
The whole look is really about injecting that colour and that friendliness to that goth feel. Really important thing about dressing emo is it's about getting that whole image right. You don't want to look like, you know, you're trying to do a little bit of goth and you're trying to do a little bit of emo but you've not got the look quite right.
So it's really important to make sure your hairstyle is right and I think that's the most important element of emo dressing as well as adding in those colours. It's about the hairstyle and it's a really specific look where it's all swept from one side over the face and the look is really really kind of jagged and choppy. For more ideas on how to dress emo, check out the images I've put together and follow my tips. .

Steffen Jahn : AUDI A3 interiors, following the trail of the first Porsche in America with CHRISTOPHERUS MAG, the AMG C63 COUPE on the Hockenheimring race track
Steffen shot fresh and lively interiors of the new AUDI A3 for Phillipp and Keuntje. Artful light direction really brought out the new, high quality materials.
'Yes, dream jobs still exist – driving through New York in a classic Porsche 356…' Steffen was in New York for Porsche's CHRISTOPHORUS magazine to photograph the very route the first Porsche took in America over 50 years ago – from the harbour to the showroom on Park Avenue. And along the way he also discovered the best espresso in New York; insider tip: Sweetleaf in Long Island City!
When the team around Steffen positioned the cars at the break of dawn, the racing engines were already warming up. The AMG C63 COUPE glittered and gleamed in the first rays of sunlight on the Hockenheimring track. Tom Wahl, art director of agency in charge Bruce B., got to be the one behind the wheel and off he went. Wagnerchic completed the post-production in record time.

How to Curl Hair Using Three Easy Methods
By Heini Talip
Curling your hair is a great way to add bounce, body, and style to any hair. Curling methods have come a long way from your grandma's plastic rollers, and getting those beachy waves and flowing locks has never been easier. Try these three methods to get your dream curls to become reality.
A bit more unconventional method but it really works! If you don't own a round curling iron or you don't have one handy, using a flat iron creates great looking curls if you know how to do it. To curl hair with this method might require a few practice runs, but once you get it, you can whip out stunning curly hairstyles in no time. Learn the easy flat iron method from this tutorial video from Blo Blow Dry Bar.
Classic Curling Iron Curls
The classic curling iron has evolved for the modern day, and making curls has become quick and easy to do. There's few tips you need to keep in mind. Sizes matter in curling irons. For those soft waves and loose curls, get a bigger barrel size. One inch or bigger is the best. For small and tight curls, small barrel sizes work better. For those soft and chunky curls, wrap hair sections all the way around the barrel and hold it horizontally to your head. For more of a wavy feel, only wrap the ends of the hair around the barrel and hold the curler downwards in a vertical manner.
No Heat Curls
If you have more time on your hands or want give your hair time off from all the damaging heat, try the more natural way to curl hair. Use an old T-shirt or a sheet and cut it into long strips. Wrap sections of hair around the fabric strips, roll them up, and tie them into a knot. The smaller the sections are, the tighter the curls will be. Wear overnight and unwrap in the morning. Then, finger-comb through and style. It's as easy as that!

Reblogged from The Myopic Life:
Saturday before last was St. Patrick's Day, not a holiday I really get into. Green is not my color; the only green I ever wore as a kid was my Girl Scout t-shirt. And since my family eschewed alcohol of any kind, I didn't know about the actual fun side of this dumb holiday until well into adulthood. To me, it was just a day to get pinched.
Life is life, afterall.

Is '06 The Year UFC Choked Out Boxing? |
Written by Michael Woods | |||
Thursday, 28 December 2006 19:00 | |||
With the benefit of hindsight, we may look back at 2006 as the year our beloved sport, the Savage Science, got choked out in the scrap for relevance, acceptance and buzz, by mixed martial arts. In the United States, for all intents and purposes, MMA is synonymous with UFC. This Saturday, two of the UFC's most marketable and capable stars, Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell, a soft-speaking, serial-killer-looking striker with a serious hard-on for kayoes, and Tito "The Huntington Beach Bad Boy" Ortiz, a bleached-blonde trash-talking badass whose fan base is split 50-50 between lovers and haters, will step in to the Octagon and get it on.

As specialists in various countries in South America, we try to visit these areas at least once a year. The information and knowledge that LATA provides will ensure we don't miss anything inbetween visits. All this means that we are able to put together the perfect adventure for our clients".

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Two men were shot during an argument late Saturday night at a west Atlanta apartment, a witness told Atlanta police.
Tequilla Copeland, 29, the girlfriend of one of the men, Anthony Powers, 24, told police that the shootings occurred at an apartment at 2591 Etheridge Dr. NW after she got in an argument with Powers.
After the dispute, Copeland told police, she called her brother, Star Turner, who came to the residence with Donald Laster, 29. At least four shots were fired during a fight between the three men inside the apartment. Powers was shot in the leg and arm, and Laster was shot in the thigh and abdomen, and both were taken to Grady Hospital, where they are in stable condition, police said.
Turner left the scene before police arrived.
Police said no weapons were recovered, but a bullet and 18 shell casings for .45-caliber and 9 mm guns were found at the scene, including more than a dozen 9 mm casings in the parking lot outside the apartment.
Police said Laster was charged with simple battery, because no witness said he was armed.
Police were still waiting to collect a statement from Powers, who was under sedation at the hospital.

Have you not gotten the warranty? Samsung should replace your TV. If they give you a new one, bloody good, if they give you a refurbished one, bloody hell. I got a refurbished Sony after 16 days.

September 15, 2006 How Do You Solve a Problem Like Sharia?By Marc SheppardSteal a loaf of bread and one or both of your upper extremities will be hacked off at the wrist. Get caught holding hands with your same—sex fianc� and the only thing the two of you will ever share again is a slow, painful, death. Are you a married woman who's just suffered the brutality of gang—rape? Well, you'll find either four males your attackers were stupid enough to allow to bear witness to the crime, or find yourself guilty of adultery —— a fate far worse than anything you suffered during the actual assault. Adulterers, and others deemed accountable for acts 'incompatible with chastity,' are wrapped head—to—toe mummy style, buried in sand up to their chests, and slowly and brutally stoned to death by their neighbors. Welcome to the merciless world of Islamic Sharia Law, where religious 'scholars' sit as judges and juries. This medieval system of 'justice' oversees countless stonings (video), beheadings, crucifixions, and often—fatal floggings in Islamic theocracies each year. But the system is not confined to those lands only. A growing number of countries with Muslim majorities are, while maintaining secular constitutions and penal codes, imposing religious law for family and civil matters. Less harsh than complete Sharia, indeed; yet this bifurcation creates what amounts to an Unequal Rights Amendment to the law. Women are treated as property, existing under the total command of, and fear of legal beatings from, their typically polygamous husbands or fathers. In divorce settlements, females living within this sexual apartheid rarely receive half that of men in property and wealth distribution and generally lose custody of their children —— particularly boys. To be sure, the greatest direct threat to western civilization emanates from the fanatical Muslims we currently face in the war on terror. These Islamo—Fascists make no pretense. Their openly—proclaimed goal is to subjugate the globe to their harshest ideological and penal precepts. Yet, of equal or, perhaps, greater, menace are growing attempts by so—called 'moderate' Muslim leaders to create dichotomous legal systems within non—Muslim countries. Nowhere is this more rampant than Europe, where an expanding Muslim population is led by those who would like nothing better than to establish a caliphate government beholding to Sharia Law. How do you keep a wave upon the sand? During the course of the past 30 years, Islamic populations and culture have expanded throughout Europe at a rate which can only be described as alarming. Oriana Fallaci's last work (she died today and will be sorely missed) was the book The Force of Reason, which described the situation Europe faces. (Se this review for an overview.) Some of the remarkable facts that have come to be in a mere generation: Europe's Left have turned a blind—eye to reality in favor of the furtherance of their quixotic social—engineering experiment — multiculturalism. For these misguided appeasers, sharing a ferocious antipathy toward the U.S, Israel, and capitalism with most Muslims has, unfortunately, obscured the fact that Islamic core tenets are vehemently and diametrically opposed to those of their own. This has created a dangerously bi—cultural environment —— the perfect breeding ground for political extortion. Sharia's not an asset to the Abbey According to a very disturbing February 2006 ICM opinion poll, 40% of British Muslims want Sharia law introduced into parts of the country. The dread of 'home—grown' terrorism originating from their own soil last month provided Muslim leaders a unique blackmail opportunity to further those wishes. Following the recently defused airline bomb terror plot, Dr. Syed Aziz Pasha, the Secretary General of the Union of Muslim Organizations in the UK and Ireland met with British government officials. During the talks, the Muslim leader had the gall to suggest that the introduction of Sharia Law, together with special bank holidays for Muslim religious festivals, would help to 'combat terror' in Britain. The Daily Mail reported his extortive reasoning on August 15, 2006, Thankfully, a week later, according to BBC News, Communities Secretary Ruth Kelly stated that The Secretary added that then went on to suggest that Earlier this year, Australia was faced with similar demands from radical Islamic clerics. During a February national television interview, Treasurer Peter Costello said that Muslims who want to live under Sharia law have no place in Australia. He went on to suggest that those not willing to adhere to parliamentary law should simply find a better place to live. How do you find a word that means Sharia? Score one for our Anglosphere allies in the British Commonwealth. But this was merely a single battle in the global war. How are other countries responding when put to similar tests? How many will stand up to the threat of terrorism or denouncement as 'racist' or 'Islamophobic?' Will they recognize the coerced acceptance of Sharia Family Law for what it really is? To commit a compound metaphor, it is a foot in the door for those who, when offered a finger, might literally take a hand. To the leaders of those nations, here are but a few recent reminders of what Sharia has meant to civilized society: How do you catch a shroud and pin it down? Meanwhile, the Italian Alps aren't that republic's only slippery slopes. Riccione on the Adriatic Riviera has closed off a section of its famed beach to men in order to allow Muslim women an area in which to swim. The feckless resort caved to pressure to respect Sharia's injunctions against mixed bathing and women displaying their bodies to members of the opposite sex. More recently, and even closer to home, in Canada, there has been intense public sparring over proposals to permit Sharia religious arbitration in civil disputes. And, although Muslim immigrants to the U.S are perhaps better assimilated than anywhere else on the planet, one can't ignore the words attributed to Council on American—Islamic Relations (CAIR) founder Omar M. Ahmad by the San Ramon Valley Herald on July 4, 1988, Portentous declarations, indeed, particularly when coming from the chairman of one of the nation's most influential Islamic civic organizations. Nevertheless, while we do battle with 'radical' Muslim 'extremists' abroad, and prepare to do the same at home, we continue to completely ignore the tangential threat imposed by their 'moderate' confidantes. Also from Fallaci's last book: We were certainly forewarned over 30 years ago. Clearly, no one was listening then. Perhaps it's only a matter of time before the U.S 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco upholds the release of Muslim men charged with beating their wives as a matter of their 1st Amendment right to freedom of religion. Today, the horrifying warning is this: the objective of spreading Islam and Sharia law throughout the world is by no means the sole dominion of those who would pilot airliners into our buildings or strap explosives onto their brainwashed children.
