March can be fickle.
Up by six with under four minutes to play, the Hoosiers seemed to be in prime position to play in their first Big Ten Tournament final since 2001.
But the Hawkeyes answered with an and-1 and back-to-back three-pointers to regain the lead. Still, the Hoosiers clawed back to tie up the game after a press led to a turnover and a Xavier Johnson basket.
Indiana just needed one defensive stop to get to overtime. They executed perfectly and broke down Iowa's original game plan.
Then March kicked in at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
Jordan Bohannon jacked up a desperation 3-pointer from 35-feet with just seconds remaining.
The ball hit glass first — and the banks were open.
And that meant another heartbreaking late-game loss for the Hoosiers.
"I saw the shot clock and then I saw he was pretty well defended and he was almost like probably four, five feet away from half court, so I knew he was going to hoist one up. And then as the ball — I saw — I thought it was going to be long and then it banked in and sometimes that's what happens It's March, so obviously March Madness," Trayce Jackson-Davis said of the final play.
The Hoosiers would not have been in that situation if it wasn't for the play of their big man. After a Johnson three to start the game, Jackson-Davis recorded five consecutive baskets, leading the Hoosiers to a 15-3 run to start the game. In the first half alone the second-team All-Big Ten forward scored 16 points, but would not stop there.
The Greenwood, Ind. native–which is down the road from Indianapolis–scored 15 points in the second half for a 31-point, 10-rebound performance. On one occasion, he showcased his unique athleticism when Johnson flipped up a pass, that seemed it would've hit the top of the backboard if it wasn't for the tremendous leap and grab by Jackson-Davis for an alley-oop.
Johnson, who himself had a great game with 20 points and nine assists, connected with the big man on eight occasions. Their pick-and-roll game was unstoppable.
"Me and him (Johnson) just talked about it, we talked to Coach, trying to get more ball screen oriented. He's a great player, especially when he gets downhill, he's going to make the right reads. And playing with him, I love playing with him, that's my guy," said Jackson-Davis.
However, aside from the duo and Race Thompson who had 11 points and seven boards, the rest of the lineup struggled to make an impact offensively. Due to the Hawkeyes double-teaming Jackson-Davis, many players received open looks, but could not convert.
Outside of the trio, the team shot just 5-of-24 from the field. Starters Miller Kopp and Parker Stewart shot a combined 2-of-9. Kopp started 0-of-7 from the field before hitting two crucial second-half three-pointers.
The team as a whole shot just 5-of-19 for 26.3 percent from deep. Iowa shot 14-of-32 for 43.8 percent from beyond the arc.
Indiana felt it was getting the shots it wanted out of its offense.
"Guys, we've had a lot of good looks from the perimeter. There were a lot of wide open looks tonight, we just didn't make them and that's a part of basketball," said head coach Mike Woodson.
"I mean, I got to keep positioning our guys. When Trayce is being double teamed, our guys have got to step up and make shots. I thought Iowa made shots when they had open looks and we struggled to make them tonight in that area."
On the other end, the Hawkeyes had an equally impressive player on their squad. Keegan Murray– who finished fourth in scoring nationally with 23.9 points per game– killed the Hoosiers time and time again.
He was too fast for the frontcourt and too big for the perimeter defenders of IU. Murray ended the game with 32 points on 11-of-17 shooting with eight three-pointers. He was able to utilize off-ball screens to receive many open looks. But, even if he was contested, it didn't seem to matter.
"He's the real deal," Woodson said of Murray.
"No, he's a load. I mean, there's just nothing he can't do with the basketball in his hand. He's a pretty good defender and he rebounds the ball in terms of his height and length, so I mean, I think the sky's the limit for him. I think he's going to be just fine and a good NBA team is going to really love him. He's played well."
Now it's wait and see.
Needing two wins to cement themselves in the Big Dance, the Hoosiers accomplished what they needed to by defeating Michigan and Illinois. Then they gave Iowa all they could handle.
Now, the Hoosiers will anxiously await their name to be called on Selection Sunday.
But one thing is for sure, This is a team with a major chip on their shoulder.
"Well, like they said in the locker room, I don't think anyone wants to see us right now. I think we've proven not only to the Big Ten but to the country that we're also a team, a top team that can compete with anyone," said Jackson-Davis.
"So, it took the last-second three to beat us to the hottest team in the Big Ten right now and it stings, but at the same time I feel like we've got a lot of ball left."

1) We want information about the causal processes that produce the data, and their regularities; and 2) We have available only experimental interventions that are themselves insufficient for those goals. This is not your grandfather's science, or Popper's.
Clark Glymour flunks the minimal requirement of a book review: conveying what a book is about and what its distinctive contribution is. Rather, he rants and he snarls about the book he wishes Profs. Lill Anjum and Mumford had written.
Brian Leiter thinks this is all "a useful antidote to our anodyne, "be nice" times in philosophy." I mention Dr. Leiter's views here not because he is a widely read blogger, but because he is a member of NDPR's editorial board. The problem with Clark Glymour's review is not, in the first instance, his use of snark, but the vacuity of the review.
The problem is really three-fold: we really learn nothing about the main arguments of the book. Even if metaphysical justification of the norms of science were a misguided project, it would still be interesting -- for aesthetic or conceptual reasons -- how it is supposed to work, and whether Lill Anjum & Mumford succeed at offering such a justification.
Second, Glymour takes for granted (with a nod to Michael Friedman) that the main business of the philosophy of science is to offer "new frameworks for scientific inquiry." While I am no neo-Kantian, I agree that something in this vicinity is really a valuable enterprise. (I am consistent here; I said so in 2011 when I commented on Glymour's manifesto (which also appealed to Friedman). But Glymour (nor Friedman) never establishes that this is the only valuable enterprise for the philosophy of science. If you can't offer a single argument for the unique significance of your own preferred project, maybe keep an open mind about others's (or pretend to be)?
As it happens, I agree with Glymour that [A] figuring out how to produce genuine causal knowledge from the reams of data-science is truly a significant challenge.+ But it is not the only such challenge. It is [B] equally important, perhaps with an eye on inductive risk even more so, to figure out how that causal knowledge does not end up exhibiting an otherwise invisible, but morally suspect, status quo bias about the background conditions that help produce such causal knowledge (such as it is). I am not suspecting the previous sentence will convince Glymour. But he has suggested (in his manifesto) that society's willingness-to-pay and potential contributions to public policy are a good metric in evaluating philosophical research programs. On that score, [B] is increasingly popular.
Third, at one point Glymour seems to offer an argument against the enterprise of the book:
It would seem that the broad norms of scientific method are pretty clear: follow procedures that have an empirically or mathematically warranted good chance -- and preferably the best chance among available procedures -- of finding the true and avoiding the false. It's means-end. The justification on that scale of abstraction is elementary decision theory. The hard part is finding such methods suitable for the kinds of data we now collect and showing that any particular method or class of methods satisfy those criteria.
I want to make two claims about this quote: 1) I agree with Glymour that justification on that scale of abstraction is elementary decision theory (although on bad days i am sure I flunk precise expression of it). But whatever decision theory is, it's not metaphysical justification. (Did I say yet, it would been nice to get an exposition from Glymour on what this is?) So, it misses its mark against the book's project.
Now 2) the final sentence (about the hard part) is ambiguous between (i) locating methods among the known scientific methods and showing that any particular method or class of methods has a good or even best chance of producing causal knowledge (finding the true, etc.) of the processes that produce the data and (ii) inventing new methods that have a good chance or even the best chance of producing causal knowledge of the processes, etc. Given everything else he says, I assume Glymour means (ii).
I actually think (ii) is much stronger than 'we' need: what we need is (as he says) "methods suitable for the kinds of data we now collect." That these methods "satisfy those criteria" is clearly important for our evaluation of the strengths and weakness of the methods, but it is less significant. My evidence for this is induction over the history of science (a topic I have spent a good chunk of my life on): for, many methods and procedures got used long before we understood what the chances were that they reliable produced the true and false; if no competing procedures exist, they go on being used even if there are grounds for doubting the odds of success.*
Okay, let me wrap up. Regular readers know I think polemical book-reviews can serve an important purpose in bringing philosophical disputes out in the open and so advance our understanding. (But that would require mutual engagement.) This is one reason to cherish the NDPR. But the NDPR discredits itself by publishing Glymour's review; it breaks no new ground and, from the vantage point of rhetoric and clarity, does not advance beyond his manifesto. "Be nice" is a useful motto, especially if you have nothing new to report.**
*I leave it to the decision theorist to justify scientific practice.
+I also agree that during the last few decades 'science' has undergone some very significant changes in evidential practices and standards.
**I thank the commentators on my facebook page for their discussions of the review.

Was Constantine the first Christian emperor?
Constantine I, byname Constantine the Great, Latin in full Flavius Valerius Constantinus, (born February 27, after 280 ce?, Naissus, Moesia [now Niš, Serbia]—died May 22, 337, Ancyrona, near Nicomedia, Bithynia [now İzmit, Turkey]), first Roman emperor to profess Christianity.
Who was the first Christian emperor?
Emperor Constantine
Emperor Constantine (ca A.D. 280– 337) reigned over a major transition in the Roman Empire—and much more. His acceptance of Christianity and his establishment of an eastern capital city, which would later bear his name, mark his rule as a significant pivot point between ancient history and the Middle Ages.
Who was the first Roman emperor to accept Christianity?
In 313 AD, the Emperor Constantine issued the Edict of Milan, which accepted Christianity: 10 years later, it had become the official religion of the Roman Empire.
Why did Constantine Favour Christianity?
Most people opted to be Christians because they could live a better life compared to those who were pagans. Conclusively, Constantine favored Christianity and the Christian community because of his individual faith in God. 9. This took place following the military and political take over.
Was Constantine a Catholic?
Constantine was the first Roman emperor to convert to Christianity….
Constantine the Great | |
Father | Constantius Chlorus |
Mother | Helena |
Religion | Paganism (until 312) Christianity (from 312) |
Where was Catholicism founded?
Holy Land
Catholic Church/Founded
What did Constantine do to pagans?
Paganism. Following the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, Constantine and his co-Augustus Licinius issued the Edict of Milan which granted religious toleration. The Edict protected all faiths from religious persecution, not just the Christian faith. It allowed anyone to worship whichever deity they chose.
Did Constantine really believe in Christianity?
Constantine created an inconsistency in the Christian religion because he spread a religion in which he did not truly believe in . In fact, Constantine was not baptized until he was on his deathbed, which was about 25 years after he began to promote the spread of Christianity through the Roman Empire.
What did Constantine do to Christianity?
Constantine embraced Christianity legalizing the religion and making Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire. This legalization helped Christianity to spread and become the dominate religion of both Western and Eastern Europe . Without Constantine Western civilization might have died with Germanic and Hun invasions…
What did Constantine legalize?
Constantine legalized Christianity in the Roman Empire. 34% of you knew this: Constantine used government money to fund his elderly mother's trip to the Holy Land and gave her the authority to carry out her campaign to restore historic Christian sites.
What was Constantine's religion?
During the reign of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great (AD 306–337), Christianity began to transition to the dominant religion of the Roman Empire. Historians remain uncertain about Constantine's reasons for favoring Christianity, and theologians and historians have often argued about which form of early Christianity he subscribed to.

This is unlike a schematic diagram, where the pact of the components' interconnections on the diagram usually does not approve to the components' inborn locations in the the end device. A pictorial diagram would take steps more detail of the brute appearance, whereas a wiring diagram uses a more figurative notation to stress interconnections beyond physical appearance.
A wiring diagram is often used to troubleshoot problems and to make definite that every the associates have been made and that anything is present.

Reading Rule #1 – Focus On the Words
Reading plays an integral part in everyone's life, whether you are 5 or 50. Some find reading easy, but some struggle with it. There can be many reasons that they struggle with it.
There could be a legitimate issue like dyslexia, but often, it is as simple as a major bad habit having been groomed during the learning process.
The most significant contributor to a person's reading struggles is not paying attention to the words as they read. Things like looking up from the page before they can finish the sentence can make comprehension and the actual act of reading challenging.
Signs Of a Struggling Reader
How do you tell if your child or student is struggling when it comes to reading? The above example of not looking at the words as they finish the sentence is one sign.
Another sign is that the reader looks at the work and seemingly guesses the word, then looks to the teacher for approval.
Some readers may do this same thing but take a little more care to look at the word. Maybe the reader looks at the word and then stares blankly at a different location as they try to determine what the word is. These are all signs of a struggling reader.
Positive Feedback Could Be Detrimental
Positive feedback is not bad, as it helps build self-confidence. There is no way that it can be entirely detrimental. However, using it nonstop and letting the student feel like they can always fall back on you for the answer will not help them become better readers.
The use of only positive feedback can reduce the student's confidence in their own skills and keep them from exploring their new emerging skills. Instead, there should be a level of constructive feedback and positive feedback to help instill better reading skills.
Focus On the Words
There are many rules when teaching reading, but the first and most important is to make sure that the reader focuses on the words they are reading. Take the time to encourage the student to keep their eyes on the word as they sound them out.
It may take patience and time to break the habit of looking away or looking to you for help, but by making them work it out, they will become a better reader. This will help them with comprehension and retention, as well.
Concluding Thoughts
By focusing on the #1 rule of reading – focus on the words – you will help struggling readers of any age overcome their problems. Who knows, by the end of the process, maybe they will love reading!

As we all progress through our 20-somethings, there are many things we have to endure. We have to begin our careers, find ourselves, deal with inflation, global warming, student loans, being broke, and our favorite... dating. It's something that seems so simple, right? We should just be able to meet someone, get to know them, and either stay with them forever or move on to someone else but unfortunately, that is not always the case.
Let's be honest, whether you believe in marriage or not, we all want to find someone to grow old with. We want companions, someone to trust, someone we can be ourselves with. It's human nature to want these things but there are some people who take advantage of that human desire. Selfishness leads some people to damage and traumatize others, leaving the traumatized to wonder what they did to deserve that treatment.
We may not know it while it's happening, but every failed attempt at a relationship forms us into a new person. I would like think they would be positive changes, but a lot of time, that is not the case. The truth to it all is: You never know who you are dating and what they are capable of. No matter how much research we do on a person, some people are really good at lying and can make you believe that they have the best intentions for you, when in actuality they couldn't care less about you or your needs.
@FirenzaMonet (in the above video) said it perfectly, "You find yourself having to take a break from dating to heal from the trauma that you experience while dating". Ghosting is so common that we almost view it as normal or something we just have to deal with. People are so uneducated on sexual harassment and assault, they think it's okay to take the actions or say the things they say. Society has convinced us that the most important thing about a person is their physical appearance, which leads people to believe they don't have to do self work. It's an awful cycle of disappointment and let downs.
There are many ways to connect with people in today's progressive society. There's apps, online dating, blind dates, social media, friends of a friend, and there are even TV shows. Essentially, most first dates are with a stranger and you never know what your experience is going to be. They could be charming and delightful on the first date and manipulative by the the third date. At some point you begin to feel like dating is not worth it so you insert said break from dating. You take time to heal, maybe even make some improvements then re-enter the dating world just to be broken down again.
And let's not forget how this affects our psyche. We begin to put up walls and be less vulnerable because we don't know what the outcome is going to be. This leaves us to maybe not be the most viable partner for someone we may really like which results in another failed attempt.
I wish I had the answers, I honestly wish it was just easy to date. I could say something cheesy like "Just keep trying, it'll happen soon!" but no one wants to hear that so I'll say this: Always put yourself first.

Eriksson accuses Nigeria FA officials of demanding money for Super Eagles job
Written by Olarotimi Oshin on November 14, 2022
Sven Goran Eriksson has accused Nigerian football officials of asking to take half of his salary before giving him the job of managing the Super Eagles.
The Swedish football coach who has managed top sides, both club and country, said he was in the race to lead Nigeria to the first World Cup on African soil – South Africa, but his refusal to 'play ball' was the major reason why he missed the opportunity.
Lars Lagerback would later take the job and lead Nigeria to the World Cup where the team crashed out in the group stage.
Vanguard reports that Eriksson was in charge of Ivory Coast at South Africa 2010.

22 Patriot Place Suite 117B
Foxborough, MA 02035
It all started with one big dream, two crazy cousins, and the perfect combination of flour, sugar, and chocolate chips. Crumbl was co-founded by Jason McGowan (CEO) & Sawyer Hemsley (COO). They both teamed up and dove head-first into the world of baking. After thousands of dollars in wasted dough, recipes that did not live up to their expectations, and cookies that are just plain embarrassing to them today, the two cousins decided to take their 'perfect cookie quest' to the people. They gathered feedback and tested recipes — a practice that is still part of the Crumbl process — until they created the world's best chocolate chip cookie.
Crumbl's delicious cookies wouldn't be complete without their iconic pink packaging! Crumbl's boxes are designed to perfectly fit each Crumbl cookie side-by-side, whether in a 4-pack, 6-pack, or 12-pack box. The "4-pack" pink box — the brand's most popular and notable — was developed in 2018, shortly after Crumbl sold its very first cookie. The unique, oblong-shaped box is the first of its kind and was created by Sawyer and his fellow classmates at Utah State University. The unique shape along with the brand's signature pink coloring make it recognizable and Instagrammable, perfect for posting that sweet Crumbl review, boomerang, or photo on social media!

How this Filipino jewelry brand revived the art of filigree
Many people warn against hiring or starting a business with friends, simply because friendship does not always translate into a successful commercial union.
But for Danielle Tan and Christine Tiu, "never do business with friends" doesn't apply.
For them, if you do it right, doing business with your best bud can actually deepen your relationship and make work way more fun and exciting.
The ties that bind
Danielle and Christine said their friendship grew even stronger when they started AMAMI, a jewelry brand that celebrates the Philippines' centuries-old jewelry tradition.
AMAMI started out as a passion project in 2017. And this jewelry brand is testament to how Danielle and Christine's bond grew over their shared passion.
"In one of our projects, we met an artisan, Kuya Matt, who happens to be one of the few remaining goldsmiths in the country," recalled Danielle.
The goldsmith, who specializes in filigree tambourine, was planning to leave the country to search for a better-paying job overseas so he could provide for his family.
The last piece of tambourine jewelry he sold was years ago. The bespoke handicraft waned in popularity against western trends, and the rise of machine-produced pieces.
Danielle and Christine did what they had to do to convince him to stay, and continue practicing his craft. Thank goodness, he did!
Keeping the art of filigree tambourine jewelry alive
AMAMI designs and works with partner artisans such as Kuya Matt to handcraft traditional jewelry collections—tambourine necklaces, bracelets, you name it—with a contemporary feel.
Filigree jewelry connects us to our past. And through the expert hands of Kuya Matt, AMAMI—which stands for Ama Namin—not only breathes life to the gold filigree tambourine tradition, a practice that has been around even before the Spaniards colonized the country, but also gives the remaining artisans a platform to continue this legacy, hopefully for succeeding generations.
"His story really touched us," Christine shared. "So we asked him to create a few pieces and we sold them to family and friends on Facebook." In 2018, Danielle and Christine put up AMAMI's official online store.
"Our jewelry collection is handmade in small batches; each one a labor of love that takes several days, even months to complete," Christine added. "It takes decades and even one's lifetime to master the craft."
The general process starts with gold or silver nuggets being melted. The precious liquid will then be heated and flattened until it turns into fine wires, which will then be molded and shaped into intricate designs.
And the labor of love manifested, indeed, as the brand has already reached heights beyond the Filipino market. AMAMI has been featured in Vogue Italia, and The New York Times. The brand has also collaborated with rap star Saweetie, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach, and influencer Mimiyuuuh, among others.
Shining the light on Filipino filigree artisans
It also helps that the two women are close with their artisans.
They are committed to empowering, training, providing sustainable livelihood and dignified wages for their artisans, among other community initiatives.
With their partnership that can be equated to friendship, they help each other fulfill their own aspirations both for AMAMI and the filigree tradition by putting a lot of work into each design.
"As one customer told us, we create wearable art with a heart," Christine said.
An all-weather friendship for keeps
With the success of AMAMI, Danielle and Christine have proven that doing business with friends isn't always a bad thing.
"Having an open and honest communication with each other is very important," Christine shared.
And her advice for budding business people out there is simple: give it a try. "Because you'll never know where your passion could lead you."
For AMAMI, success is spelled out in so many aspects: success in helping keep a Filipino tradition alive, success in helping the minority keep their legacy, and success in building a grassroots brand for everyone to enjoy.
"The idea may be scary and daunting at first, but just trust and believe in yourself and your team," Christine added.

The controversial cancellation of the series 'Aziz'
Despite all the promises of the channel Show TV and the production company O3 Medya, Turkish viewers will not see the 2nd season of the series "Aziz". Just before the start of filming of the new season, the show was cancelled. What happened?
The situation around the 2nd season of the Aziz series resembled a detective story with completely unexpected plot twists. At first, the series was renewed for a second season, despite not very good ratings. Then, it was reported that there was a script crisis in the show after the departure of the former scriptwriters and the lead actor Murat Yıldırım refused to continue work. The actor even had to make a special statement, refuting these rumors.
Murat, who is in the US, was expected to return to Turkey last week and filming for the 2nd season would begin on August 22. A contract was signed with Melisa Asli Pamuk, negotiations were held with Yurdaer Okur. However, they never started, the actor did not come to Istanbul. Instead, the following day, an official statement from O3 Medya was released announcing that there would be no 2nd season of the series "Aziz".
Murat Yıldırım, who is still in the United States, made a statement, thanking all the viewers for their support. The actor explained the decision to end the show by the fact that no one liked the new script, including the management of the Show TV channel. Rumors that the reason for the cancelation of the show was his decision not to return from the US are not true. Sometimes you just have to stop in time, so the rest of the story doesn't ruin the show.

Another update for my Thunderball project! Let's start the most epic scuba battle of all time…….and I wrote quite a lot about it. 😉

Another update for my Thunderball project! Let's start the most epic scuba battle of all time…….and I wrote quite a lot about it. 😉
And -as always- feel welcome to leave a comment on the sites of the Thunderball project.
This video I edited has three scuba scenes: First, we have a couple scuba diving and testing out some new equipment near a wreck. Then they are with their wetsuits on a boat. Only minutes later one man dives down to that wreck again, but he isn't alone, someone is waiting for him….the female scuba killer! 😉
Scene 2 is already on this blog but in miserably quality.
(click to enlarge)
And here is the video:
Well, that last scene is really great! Her surprise attack on him, stabbing him, cutting his air hose….a really naughty woman 😉
She certainly makes sure that he won't survive his dive.
But well, at least he had a really great time before his end…
Here is the IMDB link to that episode:

So, more pictures of the scuba comic!

Can't get enough of these frogwomen…. 😉
So, today I edited a really long video for you folks. It's a little over 10 minutes and incl. a nice scuba battle. Not as big as in "thunderball" but with 2 frogwomen included 😉
A helpful user of this blog pointed me to the fact that this one was missing here on the blog. Already knew the movie, but he's right! Thanks for the help, much appreciated!
Some pictures:
And here is the complete scene, the whole action:
Good scene from an insane action flick…

For today I have a mystery video! I don't know the title of the movie, maybe someone does?
Would be really great… It has a very nice scuba fight in it!

EDIT (April, 19th): Better quality, longer scene + additional bonus scene!
Check it out:
Our frogwoman today explores the deep blue sea as suddenly she gets tangled up in a net…. What will happen to her? Has someone placed that net on purpose to catch or kill her? Can she rescue herself? You will see:

Here is the video for you folks:
This one will get a quality upgrade soon!
*EDIT* Here is the new post:
And I even have the title of that movie/tv-series:
Remember the evil scuba diver from this post?
Well, I promised that there would be another scene with him, and yes there is one. But it's a male vs male scuba fight! I didn't remember on that one.
But perhaps you like that scene too…even if there is no female diver this time….
Let's try it….
It's time that the hideous scuba diver gets some payback, or? Well, here you go!

Blotter Baby Mattifying Roller
- EWElizabeth W.Verified BuyerI recommend this productSkin Tone FairSkin Type OilyHair Color BrunetteAge Range 31-40Eye Color GreenRated 5 out of 5 stars4/20/22Fantastic
I have very oily skin and have used different brands of tissue blotters over the years which I have been generally pleased about. This product is a game changer. You roll this tiny absorbent stone all over your face (bonus it feels like gua sha) and it absorbed all my oil! Makeup stayed in place! It's really small and can fit in a tiny clutch. You need to wash it every day you use it to keep it bacteria free, but the trade off is never buying tissues again. I highly recommend!

There are 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. Yep…that means 1 in every 5 person in the world is a Muslim. Did you know that??
And guess what…. Islam is the fastest growing faith in the world (1) but why is it that Islam is the most misunderstood faith today?
Now, when you mention the word Islam today…after the chap has recovered from a nervous breakdown, the first thing that pops in his head is that '…oh yeah…that's that "paki-religion" innit… those dodgy looking blokes with long beards hijacking planes, blowing up buildings and chopping peoples hands….'.
Before you know it the word 'terrorist' and 'backward' will come to mind, women chained to the kitchen sink, guys with many wives and 'they hate Jesus' will be their idea of Islam.
Well, you know what mate…if this is your image of Islam then I suggest you switch off the media bashing from the telly and start to think for yourself what Islam is and what it offers the world today.
That's exactly what the likes of Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, Chris Eubank, Cat Stevens, Jemima Khan did…and they had no choice but to be amazed with the teaching and lifestyle of Islam.
The Revival will hopefully get rid of most of the misconceptions that the western world has about Islam. Check it out:
1: "Muslims are violent, terrorists and extremists. "
This is the biggest misconception about Islam, no doubt resulting from the constant stereotyping and bashing the media gives Islam. When a gunman attacks a mosque in the name of Judaism, a Catholic IRA guerrilla sets off a bomb in London, or Serbian Orthodox militiamen rape and kills innocent Muslim civilians; these acts are not used to stereotype an entire faith. Oh no! Never are these acts attributed to the religion of the perpetrators. But you know what… how many times have we heard the words 'Islamic, Muslim fundamentalist.' linked with violence- especially after the recent terrorist attacks carried out in the world trading centre and the Pentagon?
Don't forget: there is no concept of "Fundamentalism" in Islam. The western media has coined this term to brand those Muslims who wish to return to the basic fundamental principles of Islam and mould their lives accordingly. Islam is a faith of moderation and a practicing God fearing Muslim can neither be a fanatic nor an extremist you na'a mean man? Terrorism has absolutely nothing to do with Islam whatsoever! In th eeyes of Islam it is a massive crime and the attackers need to be bought to justice.
Islam is a faith of peace and submission and stresses on the sanctity of human life. A verse in the Quran says, [Chapter 5, verse 32], that "anyone who saves one life, it is as if he has saved the whole of mankind and anyone who has killed another person it is as if he has killed the whole of mankind."
The word Jihad represents a concept, which is much misunderstood in the West…and no…it's not Holy War! The first thing that people think of is '…that Osama bin Ladin geezer..' and images of suicide bombing. Actually, the word "Jihad" means struggle, or to be specific, striving in the cause of God. Any struggle done in day-to-day life to please God can be considered Jihad. (You surprised..?)
One of the highest levels of Jihad is to stand up to a tyrant and speak a word of truth. Control of the self from wrong doings is also a great Jihad. One of the forms of Jihad is to take up arms in defence of Islam or a Muslim country when Islam is attacked. This kind of Jihad has to be declared by the religious leadership or by a Muslim head of state that is following the Quran and Sunnah (example of the Prophet Muhammad-pbuh). Jihad on the battlefield is the use of force in order to implement peace as a last resort….this making any sense, mate?
Even in war, according to Islam a Muslim is still not allowed to harm or kill traders, merchants, and contractors if they do not take part in actual fighting. It is totally against Islam for a Muslim to kill non-combatants, women, minors, servants, the blind, monks, elderly, those physically incapable of fighting and the insane or delirious. Combatants are only those who are physically capable of fighting. Even prisoners of war are given protection and cannot be harmed. Now you tell me, are these the rules, laws and etiquettes of terrorists and fanatics?
Nowhere does Islam allow the killing of innocent people!
The Quran says: "Fight in the cause of God against those who fight you, but do not transgress limits. God does not love transgressors." (Quran 2:190) "If they seek peace, then you seek peace. And trust in God for He is the One that hears and knows all things." (Quran 8:61)
The Christian scholar Ira G. Zepp, Jr. states in his book 'A Muslim Primer' (1992, Wakefield Editions, US) pp.133-135: '… It is crucial to note here that what is condoned is defensive warfare; Islam cannot justify aggressive war. Muhammad and the Traditions are also against killing non-combatants, torturing of prisoners, the destruction of crops, animals and homes.'
It must be kept in mind that the western countries defend the use of war as necessary to implement peace, but when this necessity is applied by Muslims then its evil….of course! Christianity allows the use of war in order to spread Christianity, which is given the name of "Holy Crusade".
So remember me old chap, there is nothing wrong with Jihad and we must be wary of the negative propaganda by the media. But don't forget the terrorist attacks in America if they were carried out by Muslims, has got nothing to do with Jihad. It is terrorism and totally against the teachings of Islam. Even though there may be hatred against America due to its biased foreign policy against the Muslims- nothing can justify these terrorist attacks.
You see Islam means peace and a Muslim is one who is peaceful and brings peace….so how can it have anything to do with violence and terrorism?
2: "Islam oppresses women. "
The image of the typical Muslim woman wearing the veil and forced to stay home and forbidden to drive is all too common in most people's thoughts. Although some Muslim countries may have laws that oppress women, this should not be seen as coming from Islam.
Is it a bird, is it a plane…no, it's superwoman! Oh yes…Islam elevated the status of women 1,400 years ago by declaring them equal to men, giving them the right to work, right to education to the highest level, right to vote, right to take public office, right to join the army, right to divorce (God forbid), right to inheritance, right to marry who she wishes (yippie!!) and so on and so forth, the list is endless….you got all day?
The idea that women are second class citizens and worth half a man is a myth. Never forget that women are equal to men in all acts of piety (Quran 33:32).
The Qur'an also abolished the practice whereby inheritance went to only the oldest male heir. Instead, a woman can inherit from her father, her husband, and her childless brother (see Qur'an 4:7, 32, 176).
Islam gave women political rights including voting and taking part in political activities such as sitting in parliament and becoming MP's. Lets not forget that women only got the right to vote in Britain in the beginning of the 20th century!
In Islam when a woman gets married she does not surrender her maiden name, but keeps her distinct identity. Some Muslim women have adopted the surnames of their husbands, but this is due to cultural influence, not Islam. In a Muslim marriage the groom gives a dowry to the bride, not to her father. This becomes her private property to keep or spend, and is not subject to the dictates of her male relatives. Any money she earns or receives is similarly her very own.
Under Islamic Law a woman cannot be married off without her consent. She has final approval on a marriage partner and she can refuse and cancel a marriage arranged without her consent. So a forced marriage has absolutely nothing to do with Islam She also has the right to initiate a separation from marriage if her rights under marriage are not being granted. Widows have the right to remarry, and they are in fact encouraged to do so.
The Qur'an places on men the responsibility of protecting and maintaining their female relatives. This relieves women of the need to earn their own living….but can work if they want to. It also means that a man must provide for his wife even if she has money of her own. She is not obligated to spend her money in the maintenance of her family. Also, a woman cannot be forced or does not have to cook, clean, wash-up etc for her family (…now that's what I call girl power!). This is a collective responsibility upon the husband and wife. The example of our noble Prophet (Peace be upon him) is that although he was such a great leader, he assisted in the house cleaning and mended his own clothes.
The Messenger of God (peace be upon him) said: "The most perfect in faith amongst believers is he who is best in manner and kindest to his wife, and I am the kindest to my wife."
Islam emphasizes modesty. No person should be seen as a sex object. There are certain guidelines both for men and women that their dress should neither be too thin nor too tight to reveal body forms. For men, they must at least cover the area from the knee to navel and for women; their dress should cover all areas except the hands and face. The veil is not essential but if a woman chooses do so it is up to her. Nowadays, topless and mini skirts are OK but covering yourself is 'oppression'…. Who you trying to fool?
Not Islam, but some Muslim men, do oppress women today. This is because of their cultural habits or their ignorance about Islam. Female Genital Mutilations has nothing to do with Islam. It is a pre Islamic African Custom, practiced by non-Muslims including Coptic Christians as well.
3: Muslims worship a different God. Muslims worship Muhammad.
Muslims believe in one God (Allah). 'Who's that then?' Allah is the Arabic word which is the name of the true God. It is exactly the same word, which the Jews, in Hebrew, use for God (eloh), the word that Jesus Christ used in Aramaic when he prayed to God. God has an identical name in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; Allah is the same God worshiped by Muslims, Christians and Jews.
Muslims do not worship Muhammad (pbuh) or any other prophet. Muslims believe in all prophets including Adam, Noah, Abraham, David, Solomon, Moses and Jesus. Muslims believe that Muhammad (Peace be upon him) was the last of the prophets and God alone is to be worshiped, not any human being. God is one. He has no partners or children. There is none like Him.
All the prophets came down preaching about the same God: Allah Almighty.
4: "Islam was spread by the sword. It is intolerant of other faiths. "
Many social studies textbooks for students show the image of an Arab horseman carrying a sword in one hand and the Quran in the other conquering and forcibly converting. This is as correct as saying Lord Archer is an honest chap!
Islam has always given respect and freedom of religion to all faiths. Freedom of religion is laid down in the Quran itself: "There is no compulsion (or coercion) in the religion (Islam). The right direction is distinctly clear from error." (Qur'an 2:256)
Islam did not spread by the sword because in many places where there are Muslims now, in the Far East like Indonesia, in China, and many parts of Africa, there are no records of any Muslim armies going there. The "Sword of Islam" could not convert all the non-Muslim minorities in Muslim countries. In India, where Muslims ruled for 700 years, they are still a minority. In the U.S.A., Islam is the fastest growing religion and has over 6 million followers without any sword around.
It is an important part of Islamic law to protect the privileged status of minorities, and this is why non-Muslim places of worship have flourished all over the Islamic world.
Islamic law also allows non-Muslim minorities to set up their own courts, which implement family laws drawn up by the minorities themselves. The life and property of all citizens in an Islamic state are considered sacred whether the person is Muslim or not.
Huston Smith discusses in his book entitled The World's Religions, how the prophet Muhammad, on whom be peace, granted freedom of religion to the Jews and Christians under Muslim rule.
The prophet had a document drawn up in which he stipulated that Jews and Christians shall be "protected from all insults and harm; they shall have an equal right with our own people to our assistance and good offices," and furthermore, that they shall "practice their religion as freely as the Muslims" (Quoted in The World's Religions by Huston Smith, Harper Collins, 1991, p. 256). Smith points out that Muslims regard that document as "the first charter of freedom of conscience in human history and the authoritative model for those of every subsequent Muslim state" (p. 256).
5: "All Muslims are Arabs. Islam is a 'paki-religion'. "
Islam has got nothing to do with race or any country or nationality. Islam is for all nations and for all times. The Muslim population of the world is around 1.2 billion. One out of five people in the world are a Muslim. They are a vast range of races, nationalities, and cultures from around the globe--from the Philippines to Nigeria--they are united by their common Islamic faith.
Only about 18% live in the Arab world and the largest Muslim community is in Indonesia. 30% of Muslims live in the Indian subcontinent, 20% in Sub-Saharan Africa, 17% in Southeast Asia, 18% in the Arab world, and 10% in the Soviet Union and China. Turkey, Iran, and Afghanistan make up 10% of the non-Arab Middle East. Although there are Muslim minorities in almost every area, including Latin America and Australia, they are most numerous in Russia and its newly independent states, India and central Africa. There are about 6 million Muslims in the United States and over 2 million in Britain.
Also don't forget that the "Nation of Islam" has got nothing to do with Islam. It is a racist organisation, which believes God is black, all white people are devils and Elijah Muhammad is the last messenger of God. Clearly its followers are NOT Muslims. Its leader now is Louis Farrakhan who has been allowed to come to the UK recently. So don't be fooled by these people!
6: "All Muslim men marry four wives."
John Esposito, a western author on Islam, says: '…Although it is found in many religious and cultural traditions, polygamy is most often identified with Islam in the minds of Westerners. In fact, the Qur'an and Islamic Law sought to control and regulate the number of spouses rather than give free license. (John Esposito, Islam: The Straight Path, Oxford University, 1988, p. 97).
Esposito then goes on to explain that in a society which allowed men an unlimited number of wives, Islam limited the number of wives to four. Then he continued to say: '..The Qur'an allows a man to marry up to four wives, provided he can support and treat them all equally. Muslims regard this Quranic command as strengthening the status of women and the family for it sought to ensure the welfare of single women and widows in a society whose male population was diminished by warfare, and to curb unrestricted polygamy.'
Karen Armstrong explains in her book entitled Muhammad: A Western Attempt to Understand Islam. (Victor Gollancz Ltd., 1991, p. 191) She says: …'We have to see the ruling about polygamy in context. In seventh-century Arabia, when a man could have as many wives as he chose, to prescribe only four was a limitation, not a license to new oppression.
Now you're probably thinking that most Muslim men would have four wives. However, as Huston Smith points out, "multiple wives are seldom found in Islam today" (The World's Religions, p. 252). Ira Zepp, Jr. says, "less than 2% of Muslim marriages are polygamous" (A Muslim Primer, p. 180).
There is no doubt that the second wife legally married and treated kindly is better off than a mistress without any legal rights or social respect. The west should think twice before it criticises Islam when many marriages in the west break up due to the male natural desire of seeking another partner. Islam has solved this problem by allowing more than one wife.
7: "Muslims are backward people."
This claim can only be made if you've had too many pints because anyone who has studied Islam and the Muslims know this a load of cobblers. Islam made great advances in medicine, mathematics, physics, astronomy, geography, architecture, art, literature, and history.
Many crucial systems such as algebra, the Arabic numerals, and also the concept of the zero (vital to the advancement of mathematics), were transmitted to medieval Europe from Islam.
Sophisticated instruments, which were to make possible the European voyages of discovery, were developed, including the astrolabe, the quadrant and good navigational maps. I don't know about you but if this is backward then I'm the Pope!
8: "Muslims don't believe in Jesus or any other Prophet. "
A Muslim cannot be a Muslim if he does not believe in Jesus. Muslims respect and revere Jesus, upon him be peace, and await his Second Coming. His true name is "Isa" which was changed by Christians to Jesus.
Muslims consider him as one of the greatest of God's messengers to mankind- and not God or the Son of God. The Qur'an confirms his virgin birth (a chapter of the Quran is entitled 'Mary'), and Mary is considered the purest woman in all creation. The Quran tells us that Jesus was born of a miraculous birth without a father. "Lo! The likeness of Jesus with Allah is the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, and then He said unto him: Be and he is" (Quran 3.59). He was given many miracles as a prophet.
These include speaking soon after his birth in defence of his mother's piety. God's other gifts to him included healing the blind and the sick, reviving the dead, making a bird out of clay and most importantly, the message he was carrying. These miracles were given to him by God to establish him as a prophet. According to the Quran, he was not crucified but was raised into Heaven. (Quran, Chapter Maryam).
A final word:
Remember: Islam is the fastest growing faith in the world and it is the answer to the problems facing the world today. Study Islam and speak to sincere Muslims.
Don't judge Islam on what you see on the telly or what some Muslims and Muslim 'so-called' leaders or groups are doing. After you have studied the Quran and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad then believe me… you will be so impressed that the only natural thing for you to do is…. to embrace Islam.

I saw this explanation in the JNCIS study guide book ch1 (community regex examples) and i'm a bit confused:
^65000:.{2,3}$ - AS number is 65000, community value is any 2 or 3 digit number ex. 65000:123, 65000:16, and 65000:999
^65010:45.{2}9$ - AS number is 65010. The community value is a five-digit number that begins with 45 and ends with 9. The third and fourth digits are any single number repeated twice ex. 65010:45119, 65010:45999, and 65010:45339.
If .{2} means any single number repeated twice, then i'd have argued .{2,3} if any single number repeated at least twice and at most thrice and not any 2 or 3 digit number as explained in the book.
What is the right interpretation of these 2 regex ?

Taxonomic placing: Holometabola, Lepidoptera.
Common name: Noctuid moths, owlet moths.
Geographical distribution: World-wide. This family, with about 40,000 described species, is the largest family in the order Lepidoptera. Current molecular studies suggest that the position of several groups within this family should be revised.
Morphology: The larvae (caterpillars) have three pairs of true thoracic legs and most species bear five pairs of abdominal prolegs on the 3rd-6th and 10th segments. Several genera, mainly in the subfamily Plusiinae (which lack two pairs of prolegs), move about in a loop-like manner, like the larvae of the Geometridae. The adults bear grey to brown forewings with dark and light characteristic markings.
Life cycle: Adult noctuids are active at night, when they feed (mostly on nectar), fly, mate and deposit eggs, on or near host plants. The caterpillars of some noctuids, termed "armyworms", aggregate. These gregarious larvae are darker and more robust, active and destructive than those that had developed in isolation. Larval coloration is affected by pigments in the plants on which they had fed, by the extent of crowding, and by temperature: crowding and development at lower temperature generally results in a darker caterpillars. Most species pupate in the soil.
Economic importance: The family includes several major plant pests, (listed below). The caterpillars of some species, like Agrotis ipsilon, reside in the upper soil layers during day, feeding at ground level during night, affecting seedlings or young plants, cutting them off at ground level (thus termed "cutworms"). The larvae of other species are voracious feeders that can defoliate entire crop plots within a short period,
Noctuid pests included in this compendium
Agrotis ipsilon (Hufnagel) (Black cutworm).
Autographa gamma (L.) (Silver Y moth).
