- Khaled Hosseini's new book is another tear-jerker
By Rebecca Silverstein
One year ago, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino was making $35,000 a year as the assistant manager of a Staten Island gym. Now, his financial situation is looking much brighter. Thanks to his six-pack and funny quips, this "Jersey Shore" star has turned himself into a bona fide moneymaking machine.
How much, you ask? You'd better sit down for this: The Situation will reportedly earn more than $5 million this year alone, according to The Hollywood Reporter. That's enough for a whole lot of Ed Hardy! Let's add it up: Start with the $60,000 he makes per episode. Add in his appearance fees, which range from $15,000 to $50,000 and will bring in approximately $1 million this year. Then there's his upcoming fitness video, "The Situation Workout;" NoX Edge, a chewable supplement line with GNC; his autobiography book deal, for which he got a six-figure advance; his Dilligaf clothing line; a "GTL" app and a rap song on iTunes. Sprinkle in his endorsement deals with a vodka line, Vitaminwater and Reebok. Oh yeah, and don't forget the cut he gets from all "Jersey Shore"-related projects.
RELATED: The Situation: 'I never refuse a picture'
And that's just from "Jersey Shore." While it hasn't been officially announced, he's apparently a "done deal" for the new season of "Dancing with the Stars," according to E! Online. Should that happen (and I'm kind of hoping it does), he'd get at least $200,000 for participating, with anywhere from $25,000 to $100,000 for coming in the top 3, TheWrap.com reports. And I'm guessing that dancing shirtless will lure in the votes of many middle-aged housewives, so he's got a good chance of getting up there.
RELATED: See pics of The Situation and the 'Jersey Shore' cast
Compare that to how much more, how should I put it, talented stars make: According to The Hollywood Reporter, "True Blood" star Anna Paquin will make $900,000, while Edie Falco will take in $2.1 million for "Nurse Jackie" this year. Heck, even Michael Cera's $4 million pales in comparison.
So laugh at this guido all you want, but he'll be laughing his way straight to the bank. Sure, $5 million may sound ridiculous now, but seriously, what do you think he'll be doing once "Jersey Shore" washes away? Even the tightest six-packs atrophy -- just ask Eric Nies.

Formative Experiences
- Hardback
- Publication date:April 2010
- 624pages
- 50 b/w illus. 11 tables
- Dimensions: 228 x 152 mm
- Weight: 0.97kg
This interdisciplinary book offers a unique exploration of the formative effects of children's early life experiences, with an emphasis on interactions among neurodevelopmental, behavioral, and cultural dynamics. The authors draw on insights from psychobiological, clinical, and cross-cultural comparative research that maps the robustness of these developmental dynamics across species and societies. Multidisciplinary case studies focus on specific periods of development, or windows of susceptibility, during which caregiving and other cultural practices potentially have a long-lasting impact on brain and behavior. Chapters describe in detail: how social experience interacts with neurodevelopmental disorders; how epigenetic mechanisms mediate the effects of early environment; the interaction of temperament and environmental influences; the implications of early life stress or trauma for mental health and well-being; and the cultural shaping of sexual development and gender identity. The authors also explore key aspects of and common experiences associated with modern childhood, including teasing, bullying, the function of social play, emotional regulation, and management of attention disorders. The final section translates insights from this work into a fresh appraisal of child-rearing practices, clinical interventions, and global public health policy that affect the mental health and well-being of children around the world.

This article presents a new interpretation of the famous series of six letters written by Defoe in 1718 to Charles Delafaye, the Under-Secretary of State, in which he describes himself as having been employed by the Whig government to pass himself off as a Tory and insinuate himself into the management of Tory journals in order to weaken their attacks on the Whigs. It argues that these letters were a fiction, and that Defoe was instead deceiving his own Government paymasters.

'Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition' Arrives for iPad
Legendary role-playing game Baldur's Gate has arrived for iPad tonight. It's a port of the beloved 1998 game by BioWare, but updated and enhanced with touchscreen controls and extra content like in-app purchases. Sister-site TouchArcade notes that Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition requires iOS 6 to play, which rules out the original iPad as a compatible device. Quote:

Played iPad 4 & iPad 3 multiplayer on Lan, multiplayer disconnected and had weird lag rubberbanding issues. Was pretty disappointed in general with the 'touchscreen' port which really doesn't take advantage of the touch much at all. The UI didn't really feel great and the options menus had all kinds of stuff talking about mouse speed etc.. I can't believe how rushed it feels, considering that it came out so many months late

Also, it's strange how I have to double-tap to get someone to attack a monster. The first click never seems to register as an attack. Instead, my guys just walk up and stand toe to toe with whatever I originally intended on killing. |

I was hoping for the PS2 console port which turned it into a much easier to get into action RPG/Dungeon crawler.
I loved that game and I honestly think it would make a killer iOS entry.

The thing is, the source art for the game was lost a decade ago, so it limits how much up-scaling can do. I like the zoom feature though, it has its uses. Playing on iPad 3, I can say that the Retina does show pixels when you are zoomed all the way in, but otherwise the game looks beautiful, a work of art.
BG has never played this good. There is zero wait for transitions, a big plus. Game play is great too with the touch interface, sure there are a few bugs that need to be worked out with forthcoming patches (particularly fixing a monster spawn bug). Word is that the first iPad patch is already in the oven, waiting for App store approval. However, the game is pretty good as it is, a masterpiece of D&D RPG excellence. The art, sound, music, characters, story, side-quests are all completely EPIC. The team who did this port is already working on BGII/TOB, with potential for more infinity games if they do well enough! RPG NIRVANA!

The graphics is a bit jarring, but I guess it's just shock as to how things have progressed in the past decade. Otherwise, it brings back a lot of great memories.

I was just about to ask this very question. Personally, I think it'd be a little too small, as most everything on the iPad feels right at the cusp of being just large enough to hit comfortably, with some things like items dropped from enemies, being just a bit too small.
Also, I gotta say the game would benefit from a couple of patches. I've had a couple situations where I get someone to cast a spell, and the framerate drops down to nearly single digits. If Beamdog were to fix that alongside the feedback issue, it'd be great. Right now though, it's a little rough around the edges. |

My thoughts thus far.
Touch interface is not intuitive and lacks more rugged control. Old controls and options from original game redundant. New tutorial added but obsolete in my opinion. Looting takes a long time. I'm guessing touch precision problems. Entangle spell effect slooooowed the game on my iPad2. I' guessing this will be a problem in larger combat with other area effect spells. I don't know if I'm the only one who noticed this thus far but at the crossroads map there is a hidden ring (was there in earlier versions too) but when i try to loot it a variation of wolfs start to attack every time. So i was there until I killed some 6-7 wolfs and then died miserably (no ammo). A side from that I don't really care if its buggy because the fun is "too damn high" I finally get to play BG everywhere & anywhere. And i suspect Overhaul will give us some patches with fixes so I'm not that worried so far. Cheers |

Little update for anyone planning on buying this.
Boo is bugged. He doesn't squeak in response to the things Minsc says, and clicking on him in his inventory crashes the game without fail. HOW COULD YOU BUG BOO BEAMDOG? |

Day 6 – Rock a Bye Baby / Shake
In contrast, last night, with my gentle rolling, they slept so deeply that waking for watches was difficult. Even when the wind picked up gusting 29kts they still slept soundly.
While Simon was busy on the SSB this morning (temporarily losing our transmit function), Lini had such a giggle with me in the cockpit. We took part in the ARC virtual aerobics class. Although we couldn't hear Pam's instructions on the radio, we played our 'Shake' playlist on the iPod and followed the printout as best we could in big seas while listening to great tunes. I can't wait to hear how many of us girls joined in: What fun! Lini was only saying she needed some exercise; she's missing her morning Tai Chi along 'R' pontoon then toning. I hate to say it but things are not likely to improve with the meals they're eating!
This afternoon they trailed lines off my stern then pulled them in with glum faces this evening – Strange! Simon is also glum as he wants to get Porsche (the Parasailor) out of my wardrobe but it's still too blowy. My sails stayed reefed as the wind and seas built after dinner. No friends seen again today although a couple of yachts passed us in the night.
Breakfast – Melon, banana + yoghurt – Bacon, egg, rosti + beans.
Lunch – Rocket, avocado + smoked salmon salad.
Dinner – Curry + Rice.

User Accounts
Each person has two accounts at Wells:
- One account is for email
- A different one is for the Globe system
UserIDs and passwords for both email and the Global system are distributed through U.S. mail prior to arrival on campus. Please look for it in the Welcome packet from the Dean of Students office.
The Globe
The Globe is a web based system that allows students to do such things as register for courses, check grades, pay tuition bills, and join community groups. Typically, the userID for this system will be the student's first initial, middle initial, and last name, followed by the last two digits of the expected graduation date. E.g. Sam W. Jones, expecting to graduate in 2015, would have a user ID of swjones15.
The email system is provided so students can get messages sent to them specific to Wells College. The userID is typically based on first initial, last name. E.g. Sam W. Jones, expecting to graduate in 2015, would have an email userID of sjones. However, there are exceptions to this. For example, Sally Jones could not have that same ID, so the name may instead be spelled out as 'sally.jones' A directory of all student email addresses is available on the Globe.

Theme for the day: Who are you as a teacher?
8:30-9:40 Getting ready for class: A fresh look at course design, Stearns Central 178
9:40-10:00 Break, Stearns CentralThis presentation will describe three major steps in designing an effective learning environment: 1) developing specific, student-friendly learning goals; 2) designing tasks for feedback and assessment; and 3) incorporating targeted teaching and learning activities. Participants will leave with sample learning goals, examples of formative and summative assessment tasks linked to the learning goals, and sample activities that will engage students as active participants in class rather than passive observers.
10:00-10:50 Teaching breakout sessions, Stearns Central 177, 178, & 179
- Engaging students in the classroom through interactive lectures - Jennifer Anderson and Joshua Villalobos
Today's geoscience courses are now open to an abundance of different teaching styles that encourage students to think in different ways about the world around them. This workshop will discuss interactive pedagogies that faculty are using to ensure student interaction and comprehension.
- Getting students to think about their learning, attitudes, and motivation - David Budd
Participants will be introduced to the components of the affective domain – motivations and attitudes towards learning – and the concept of self-regulation (students monitoring of their learning process). Students tend to enter our classrooms claiming to be motivated to learn, but without the skills to succeed. We will consider some simple techniques that participants can use to guide students to be more thoughtful about their learning.
- Incorporating data analysis into undergraduate courses - Rachel O'Brien and Rajul Pandya, Stearns Central 179
Data analysis is a powerful tool to help students practice the process of scientific work. In this session we'll explore the myriad of ways you can incorporate the use of data analysis in your introductory and upper-level courses to involve your students in active learning.
- Ways to engage students: Place-based learning and service learning - Matthew Kirby and Sara Rathburn
Cultivating citizen scientists is one of our many jobs as professors. Place-based or service learning courses link student learning to a familiar context and local social issues. These types of courses require substantial planning, organization, and time, but the result may be increased student learning gains and an understanding of relevant issues underpinning to a local area.This session will discuss some strategies for developing and sustaining place-based or service learning courses.

12:00-1:20 Lunch and optional lunch-time discussions, Darley Commons Dining Hall
1:20-2:00 What type of classroom do you want and what does it take to achieve that goal - characteristics of traditional, transitional, and learner centered classrooms - David Budd, Stearns Central 178
Greater student learning occurs in classrooms that encourage students to analyze challenging questions, work collaboratively with small groups of peers, respond to instructor questions that assess learning, and focus on concepts over facts. This session will examine what actually happens in classrooms of all sizes that achieve this goal, and in classrooms that do not. Participants will also be introduced to the Reformed Teaching Observation Protocol, which they can use as a guide to help them assess their own teaching and develop a holistic approach to all aspects of constructivist teaching.

Optional workshop sessions on Wednesday morning
Concurrent Sessions, Stearns Central 177, 178, & 179
8:30-9:30 Concurrent Optional Sessions I
- Community college careers and interviews: Realities and misconceptions of two-year colleges - Joshua Villalobos, Stearns Central 179
Community colleges educate over 40% of all college students in the US and the number is growing. This session will explore some of the innovative changes that are currently happening at two-year colleges (2YC) and how they are becoming the first choice for many entering higher education. The session will also discuss the hiring methods, pay structure, and tenure processes of 2YCs.
- How to write peer reviewed papers while balancing teaching and research - Matthew Kirby, Stearns Central 178
Being a professor is a balancing act between teaching service, and research. How you manage your time will dictate, to a large extent, your ability to achieve your research goals. Acquiring this balance is easier said than done. In this session, we will explore some time management techniques aimed at achieving research success.
- Using Bloom's taxonomy to match teaching goals and learning exercises - David Budd, Stearns Central 177
Over forty years ago, Benjamin Bloom and co-workers created a classification scheme for educational objectives that continues to provide a useful structure for matching learning goals with appropriate assessment experiences. We will introduce the taxonomy and use it to classify a range of learning exercises. Participants will leave with a hierarchy of question types and some examples of assignments that address a full range of cognitive skills.
9:45-10:45 Concurrent Optional Sessions II
- Setting up a research lab - Matthew Kirby, Stearns Central 178
Flash forward - you have been offered a job - congratulations! But now the challenges really begin. One of these challenges is setting up your lab. It sounds easy...and fun! Alas, setting up your lab requires critical planning to insure your success and eventual tenure. This session will discuss strategies for setting up your first lab as well as how to get your lab up-and-running.
- Teaching the nature of science - Rajul Pandya, Stearns Central 179
11:00-12:00 Concurrent Optional Sessions IIIIntroductory college science classes, often taken as part of general education requirements, are an important contributor in the scientific literacy of US adults. Because of this, it is important that these classes convey not only the content of a particular science, but also the fundamental ideas and processes of science so that adults are equipped to incorporate science into their personal and civic decision making - in other words, it is important that students walk away understanding the nature of science. Further, understanding the nature of science can help students in these classes address common misconceptions that exacerbate the controversy over evolution and climate change. The goal of this session is to explore some of these misconceptions and to try out some activities designed to help students confront these misconceptions. Through our discussions and activities, you'll leave with some fun and effective ideas about how you might incorporate the nature of science into the introductory science courses you teach.
- Education and engagement: Exploring how faculty members can support education outside of college - Susan Buhr Sullivan and Rajul Pandya, Stearns Central 177
As a faculty member, you'll probably be expected to demonstrate the broader impacts of your work. Depending on the institution, this could be a large and important part of what you do or something that is required, but not well-rewarded. In this workshop, we'll introduce and discuss a number of successful broader impacts efforts at various scales, talk about the common elements of effective programs, and describe benefits of outreach to participants and scientists. Examples will include working with museums, teacher workshops, social media, citizen science, service learning, and public science events. Through this discussion, we'll develop a range of broader impacts ideas you can draw from and some guidelines for you to consider when designing your own approach. We'll also talk about the way programs can be aligned with your institution's goals and provide the optimum benefit to all participants - including you.
- Finding and being a mentor - Rachel O'Brien, Stearns Central 178
At some point in your professional training, you may have experienced the gift of working with an effective mentor. This session will explore how to cultivate a network of mentors in your academic life and to identify what's involved in serving as a successful mentor to others.
- Interdisciplinary teaching in and beyond geoscience: Thinking outside the box - Jennifer Anderson, Stearns Central 179
Geoscience can be explored through the lenses of history, literature, politics, visual and performance art, etc.. This discussion will focus on ideas for emphasizing the interdisciplinary nature of geoscience within the field itself, across the sciences, and out into the other disciplines on campus.

It's been a special year for the Ravens special teams.
Rookie free agent kicker Justin Tucker, who earned the starting kicking job after a training camp battle with Billy Cundiff, has connected on 19 of his 21 field goal attempts this season. He has also hit on four field goals from fifty yards or more (51, 51, 54, 56), which are a Ravens' single season record.
Tucker hit a 27-yard game-winner as time expired vs. New England. His 85 points this year are the sixth most in the NFL.
Returner Jacoby Jones leads the NFL with a 37.4-yard kickoff return average this season. He is the only returner in 2012 with two touchdown returns on kickoffs (108 yards and 105 yards). Jones is the first Raven to ever have multiple kickoff returns for touchdowns in a single season and a career.
And then there is punter Sam Koch, who has become a mainstay in the organization.
Koch, a 2010 Pro Bowl alternate, owns a 44.4 career gross average and a 38.6 career net average, both marks that rank first in Ravens history. He is the Ravens' all-time leader in punts inside the 20 (currently at 187) inside his career.
This season, Koch has placed 17 boots inside the 20 (ranking 13th in the NFL) and owns a 47.2 yard gross average (also 13th in NFL).
In week 10's 55-20 win over Oakland, he even scored his first-career touchdown on a fake field goal, scrambling seven yards for the score.
Koch talked with WBAL's Gerry Sandusky Tuesday night on Ravens One On One about his touchdown, saying that he had thoughts about doing the "Gangam Style" dance.
But even though the special teams group, including long snapper Morgan Cox, is a unique gathering of teammates, Koch knows it's not all fun and games.
"Special teams are a big part (of the team)," Koch said. "We know there is going to come a time in every game that we need to make a stand and help out the team. We've done that the last few weeks."
The Ravens hope Koch isn't on the field much in San Diego, other than to hold for numerous extra point attempts.
Coverage of the Ravens begins at 10am on Sunday.

Spec Ops: The Line gets free DLC in August
2K Games offering four extra cooperative missions set before events of single-player campaign, will feature new levels and playable characters.
The wait for Spec Ops: The Line is over as the game finally launched today, but it has been replaced by the wait for free additional content for 2K Games' first-person shooter.
2K Games today announced that it will release free downloadable content for the game "approximately" in August. The added content is a series of four cooperative multiplayer missions set prior to the outset of the full game's single-player campaign. Players will work their way through new areas with different playable characters, fighting enemies as well as sandstorms in order to accomplish their objectives.
Developed by German studio Yager (which worked on the Aerial Strike series as well as the 2003 game that shares the studio's name, Yager), Spec Ops is a first-person shooter in a near-future setting. The game attempts to distinguish itself from the rest of the military shooters on the market through its narrative, which sees a US Delta reconnaissance squad travel to a sandstorm-ravaged Dubai to investigate the reappearance of a thought-dead colonel.
For more on Spec Ops: The Line, check out GameSpot's previous coverage.

What is it about Massachusetts politicians who run for president?
Here, they are intelligent people with reasonable, if lofty, ambitions. On the national stage, they turn into caricatures. Whatever their politics, they become arrogant, stiffly coiffed candidates who lack the common touch.
Kerry served his country and he continues to serve the state. Romney has always been about himself, and his five sons are following suit by producing NOTHING that society can use!
Accept the fact that New England, and Masschusetts especially, is VERY different from the rest of the country. Since Dukakis' nomination, I have told friends, the US will never elect anyone from Mass as president. (I certainly hope it proves true this time around.) The wealthy and the egg-headed have very little in common with the sun-burnt farmers of the central plains, drawlin' slow-talkers of the South, and super-friendly folk of the Midwest. Don't get me wrong, I love it here. Blue-state, yeah! Mass has a lot of admirably smart, big-hearted people, but its so different here it's as if there's an invisible fence around this tiny NE corner of the US. Is it the Mayflower effect? Friends who visit often comment No one makes eye contact here.
Don't forget Ted Kennedy, who didn't even get as far as the Democrat nomination (against Jimmy Carter) because he couldn't answer a question in an interview about why he wanted to be president.
It's not rocket science, leaders who have lost touch with reality -- but still flourish in an area where the people share the same myths -- do not do hold up well when exposed to a different environment that more closely evaluates them, either because the people share a different set of myths, or because the process, for whatever reason, is more thorough or logical.
Mitt's problem is obvious. He is as phony as the day is long. Pure and simple. The man will say anything to get elected, which, of course, got him in trouble at that fundraiser.
Mitt is in his own category. Please don't campare him to John Kerry, Mike Dukakis and, God-forbid, Ted Kennedy. None of those men were compulsive liars. Kennedy likely couldn't answer the question about why he wanted to become President because public service was as second nature to him as breathing. Ted, warts and all, cared so much about normal people and their struggles. Though economicly privelidged, Ted Kennedy suffered other types of trials and he identified with those who suffered and struggled. Compare their records of public service. Mitt was not fit to shine Ted Kennedy's shoes. So many of us here in Massachusetts have a story about how Senator Kennedy helped them.
When Mitt ran for Governor in Massachusetts, he maintained that, national ambitions aside, he had no greater desire at that time than to be Governor of Massachusetts. Two years into his term, he lost interest in the Governor's job and was out on the national circuit, often bad mouthing Massachusetts to boot. He's got the soul of a used car salesman (with apologies to used car salesmen everywhere).
Meanwhile Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton use $70K of taxpayer to make a video to APOLOGIZE to Pakistan TV for a video. Administration PROTECTS al Qaeda in Egypt and Libya. It REFUSES to tell the American public what we all know. The attacks were carefully planned to occur on 9/11.----Do you believe the Administration's explaination or do you believe the president of Libya, who ought to know what happened in his country. The US government was warned. No protection was given to the ambassador on 9/11. And it blames Americans for exercising their right of free speech. Film had nothing to do with the attacks. ----And the Result of the administration backtracking and refusal to make good on its VOW to punish those responsible is yet MORE violence in more countries. Administration has been told by al Qaeda that it must release the blind Sheik who is serving an life sentence, else more Americans will be attacked. Administration is actually CONSIDERING this possibility. Obama not only knows that sanctions against Iran are not working, he gives WAIVERS to countries. Barack Obama is not a Commander in Chief who wants to protect Americans. Does barack Obama and Hillary Clinton even acknowledge that America was attacked by Islamic terrorists and that there is a WAR? NO. Obama just says there is a WAR on women. ----He goes to Vegas the day after the killings. Contrary to what Professor Warren says, Obama is not a Commander in Chief. ---He is not a leader. He is just a scheming POLITICIAN.

Hey fellow Pegasonado's...
Well it's taken about 8 weeks but my stage one mods are complete and I am thrilled with the results.
For anyone interested, here's what I've experienced. Hopefully this will assist you in deciding what to modify (if anything).
Bike: 05/06 Pegaso Strada
Akrapovic Carbon cans
K&N filter
Airbox vents
A snorkel cut down
Dynojet PCIII
Mod 1: Akrapovic Cans
Baffles in and standard
Sound: way too quiet (quieter than stock)
Power: no real improvement.
Surging improvement/smoothness: slight
Worth it?: No
Baffles modified (mesh at either end removed)
Sound: Nice sound - inoffensive
Power: Some improvement, better throttle response.
Surging improvement/smoothness: Noticeably better
Worth it: Aesthetically and sound yes, power no.
Baffles Removed (looks MUCH better)
Sound: Initially VERY loud but gets quieter when carbon builds up and is now acceptable for all but long cruises.
Power: Very good improvement in toque, acceleration and over-rev. When you first ride with the baffles out you think the difference is good but not great. Then when you replace the baffles you realise how much better it goes without them.
Surging improvement/smoothness: Much better (almost as good as with PCIII)
Worth it: Definitely (and it looks trick and saves a lot of weight)
NOTE: When running pipe without baffles you MUST block off the AIS (Auxiliary Induction System). If you don't do this the backfires and popping sound like a gunfight in downtown Bagdad.
Mod 2: K&N Filter
Sound: N/A
Power: slight difference.
Worth it: On its own - probably not. With pipes - yes because you need to get good flow of air both in and out of the motor so a pipe without a good flowing filter is a little pointless and vice versa.
Mod 3: Cut back snorkel.
Sound: More induction growl
Power: Some improvement to throttle response
Surging improvement/smoothness: Improves both.
Worth it: Yes - it's free!
Mod 4: Air box vents
Installed 5 airbox vent holes with micro foam filters. Adds about 2 sqaure inches of breathing area.
Sound: None
Power: Hard to tell (not much I'd say)
Surging: No difference
Worth it: In isolation no. Part of the stage 1 - probably it cost very little
Mod 5: PCIII
Sound: None
Power: BIG difference in toque and power. The difference between hard to wheelie in 1st gear before - now fairly easy to wheelie in 2nd (no clutch).
Surging: Gone
Worth it: Absolutely
I kinda wish I'd done all these mods at the same time so that the change would have been more dramatic rather than the incremental changes I experienced. However, my friend who rode it before has ridden it since and got to feel all mods combined. He couldn't believe the difference. It has gone from a plodder to a real little weapon and I get a real buzz out of riding something that I think is now performing to its potential.
I have purposefully left the cost of the mods out of this because it was / is not about money. It is about whether it was worth the effort and the satisfaction of the result. Whether it's worth the money is probably more a function of how much money you have and what else you could spend it on.
I got a really really good deal on my bike so even with the cost of these mods I am still way ahead. If I had paid full retail I may have thought twice.
When I get it on a dyno in the next couple of weeks I will post the results but the proof of the pudding is in the riding and it rides great.

True enough regarding players not wanting to be here. That is old world Antonio Davis/Steve Francis nonsense. It is no secret players love coming through Toronto and as the league has gotten younger it has also seen that sentiment disappear. Rudy/Amir and Demar love it. I saw Kyle at the island airport and unprompted he started to tell me how much he loved it here. Jennings loves it. AI loved it and god knows KG has long loved the ladies here. An the tattoo shops. It's the organization they don't care for. Or rather, the losing.

Ansar al-Sharia and dialogue in Yemen

Published Since: One Year and Month and 7 Days
Tuesday 17 April 2012 05:25 pm
Ansar al-Sharia "Partisan of Sharia" is a relatively new armed force, which controlled towns and Directorates in Abian, Shabwa and Lahj. It has got ambiguous relationship with al-Qaeda in Arabia Peninsula "AQAP" which recently used Yemen as its base. Qaid al-Thahab, the spokesperson of Ansar al-sharia group, which months ago had controlled Rada' town said in a statement to al-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper, before his slaughter, that, " we are not with al-Qaeda, but we are proud of our relation with them."
This means that the group did not join the international organization of al-Qaeda but they are pursuing the same method and means of the organization and share the same intellectual view point and doctrine of al-Qaeda.
The history of this group shows that it appeared before al-Qaeda, where some of its leaders belong to Aden-Abian Army organization, that used to be chaired by Abo al-Hassan al-Mihdhar, who was sentenced to death in the nineties of last century. It was then led by Khaled Abdulnabi who seemed to have abandon working with them lately.
This issue had been addressed before in another place. However this is not the matter, but the matter is the possibility of holding dialogue with Ansar al-Sharia, within the dialogue that is scheduled to take place in implementation to the requirements of the GCC initiative.
Let's suppose that the relationship of Ansar al-Sharia in Yemen with al-Qaeda is similar to the relationship of Taliban with al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. Let's say that Ansar al-Sharia is the Taliban of Yemen. Could there be dialogue with them , especially that they are threatening and controlling whole directorates, and became a source of security scare that cannot be ignored?
My personal opinion, which should not necessarily be approved by Ambassador Feierstein is that the Yemeni leadership should hold dialogue with Ansar al-sharia. Hadn't America held dialogue with the Taliban of Afghanistan? Or ,is dialogue only allowed when the Americans are among the victims and is forbidden when the victims are from both Yemeni sides?
Despite the announcements of the Yemeni officials that al-Qaeda (Ansar al-Sharia,) will not be invited to the dialogue conference, however indicators show that dialogue with the group is inevitable.
And we hereby present some facts.
If dialogue is carried out with Ansar al-Sharia, it will not be the first in Yemen. Dialogue had been held with al-Qaeda elements in prisons in the period of 2003- 2005. Some of them came out of prison and many of them left prison and had been persuaded to abandoned their old thoughts, though some of them resumed joining al-Qaeda.
Those who re-joined al-Qaeda have their reasons which are attributed to failure to employ them after their conviction that the course they were leading was incorrect. This means that the failure was not in the dialogue which led to the persuasion, but it was rather in the failure to intake these elements, making them victims of ignorance and procrastination
They are forced to return to al-Qaeda again. Some of the leaderships who returned to the armed activity had done so in ambiguous situations, within al-Qaeda in Yemen "political recruitment game," which is not disclosed yet, and which some of them had been mentioned in some publicized American reports.
The dialogues took place under the observation of the Intellectual Dialogue Committee, chaired by the former Endowment Minister Sheikh Hamoud al-Hittar, who said in an interview with al-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper, " the problem of the extreme militants is intellectual, and the thought should be faced with thought because the intellectual issues cannot be resolved through force, as force makes them stronger. "
It is true that the dialogues of the committee used to fall under the religious advise policy to those who were in prison, and this may differ from the political dialogue. This kind of dialogue points out to the possibility of the political dialogue.
Despite all that, dialogue had been held with Ansar al-sharia, regarding the field situations in Abian. They came out of Rada' through dialogue with the dignitaries of Rada' and local officials, and following dialogue the Ansar al-Sharia withdrew from Rada' in return to meeting some of them their demands.
Ansar al-Sharia is not a homogeneous ideological organization as it is portrayed by media, who think that the community members are atheists that should be fought. This doesn't mean that the organization doesn't contain groups which think all the society are unbelievers. A great number had joined it for reasons that are not linked to the jihadist ideology.
Many of them were of the armed militia of the Southern Movement, which joined this organization so as to weaken the grip of the army and security in the southern part of Yemen so as to achieve their dream of separation.
There are some who joined them for they were needy. Others joined them for tribal reasons. A few of them who were wanted or hunted abroad had found a safe haven in Yemen.
If we admit that the group is an inhomogeneous mixture that is not based only on the jihadist ideology, then dialogue will work with them, because they include the pragmatists who would be involved in dialogue on political or material basis. They also contain the misguided youth who could be persuaded through intellectual religious dialogue, which had unfortunately stopped after 2005.
It is proved that the security solution is a failure, because everyone who is killed in Ansar al-Sharia contributes to their gaining at least ten sympathizers. This is a great gain to them. We saw how the Houthis in a similar situation had exploited their war with them to gain more of the misled to fight on their side.
Moreover the Ansar al-Sharia had become a great power in some of the regions in the south, that is why it is necessary to hold dialogue with them.
It is true that most of the countries which adopt the war on terror projects consider dialogue with al-Qaeda and the terrorist groups as a red line, however it is also true that the criteria of terror classification are not constant. The Americans had classified Taliban as part of the terrorist evil axel, and we saw how they held dialogue with them.
It is true that Yemen has its own characteristic regarding terror fighting, given the fact that dialogue with al-Qaeda is a sin from the American perspective, however the Yemeni odd situation requires that this dialogue should be held, because the American pressure for military confrontation to al-Qaeda will lead to the same consequences of Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Ansar al-Shria say that they don't resort to the military option (jihad,) before substantiating evidence against their opponents. This means to them advising people and holding dialogue with them.
Regardless of their reasons in dialogue, it means in principal their readiness for dialogue.
It is not acceptable for the government to hold dialogue with the Houthis who killed thousands of Yemenis, and refuse to hold dialogue with Ansar al-Sharia, who killed less than one thousand Yemenis , taking into account that the killing of one person is like killing all people.
Moreover, holding dialogue with them doesn't mean accepting their demands or the compliance with their project, for dialogue is often held between different visions. It is a sort (substantiating evidences against them ) if we use their own intellectual dictionary, and it will be a way of pulling the rug from under their feet if they refused the decisions of the dialogue.
The proximity of the Islah party, with their Islamic orientation to power in Yemen, put on them a historical responsibility regarding this file, making the dialogue's opportunity more favorable than before.
Are Ansar al-Sharia going to be invited to the national dialogue conference in Sana'a to save the country more bloodshed. I think there are three persons who can answer in Yes or No. They are President Hadi, Abdulwhab al-Anisi, the General Islah Secretary and of course the American Ambassador in Sana'a, who, despite refusing some of his statements, had played a distinctive role in achieving the political agreement in the country.
