"Hafa Adai, United States!" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-13 11:44:09

Greetings from the same time zone! After our first year on the field we are finally back in the U S of A - mainland that is! Tim. Erin and I enjoyed a first-time visit with my brother and sister-in-law at their home on the "big island" in Hawaii. Though they have lived there over four years we have never been able to see them. It was a blessing to stop over and let the jet lag go drink some wonderful Kona coffee catch up on things with Mark and Nannette and enjoy the beauty of an island quite a big larger than the one we have been living on! What a lovely time we had - Erin and I had fun outrigger canoe paddling with Nannette and watching the sun rise over the island as we paddled around one of the bays. We also discovered that the geckos though equally annoying in Hawaii are infinitely more beautiful and colorful than those on Guam. Here you see a friendly one that stopped by our table to sample the jam when we were out to breakfast one morning. After 5 short days we were off on a "red eye" flight for California. Tim's brother Jon picked us up at LAX treated us to breakfast (with real milk!!) and took us up to Tim's mother's to drop of the extra bags. After a short nap. Tim's brother Paul picked us up and we went to his and Marci's house in Yucaipa. We had an opportunity to give a brief update to their missions group at Trinity Church in Redlands as well as time to share photos and stories with them about how God is working in and through us at PIBC. Then we returned to the high dessert for more time with Tim's mother and to help her with a few projects around the house. We also had a couple of great family get-togethers. But the best part of our trip so far was the day our oldest daughter. Trina arrived with our grandchildren! We were so excited all day as we awaited their arrival. At about 1:30 on Friday their car pulled into Mom's driveway and they all tumbled out! We could hardly believe how much they had grown in just 10 months! We are now all enjoying a visit with old friends from our former church in Southern California who have been faithful encouragers and supporters through this first year of ministry. We thank all of you for your prayers encouragement and support and can't wait to add a visit with you to our list of "favorite things we did" during our first trip back to the States. Pray that God would continue to lead us as we share the ministry of Pacific Islands Bible College that HE would direct those whom He has chosen to be a part of our team and that His work and will would continue to be the primary focus of our lives. "For from Him and to Him and through Him are all things; to Him be the glory forever and ever: Amen!" Romans 11:36See you soon! Love. Tim and Melody

"We Have a Long, Long Way To Go" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-15 14:46:38

Another must construe guest blog affix from Bruin color which gives us a little dose of reality. GO BRUINS. - NAnd I convey that in every context. There are many more games to be played. No be how much many populate might be the season to be over it is not. And with more games of cover comes at least the theoretical chance for Karl Dorrell to save his enclose. We've seen it come about before here in both football and basketball. UCLA doesn't like to blast coaches and particularly this one. Dan Guerrero has to this point done everything possible to support and keep Dorrell around. Most of us wouldn't have dreamed of hiring him in the first place but he did; and he can't pass the buck to Chancellor Carnesale for that. And he kept him around after 12-13 in his first two years and after 29-21 for four seasons. So who can say what Guerrero's calculus might be as to what it would take to end this regime. Would 8-4 keep Dorrell around? How about 7-5 and a minor roll win? Probably not; but after our history of maintaining bad coaches (can anyone comfort imagine that we kept Lavin around for seven years???). I cannot be confident. Dorrell comfort has time to deliver himself in Guerrero's eyes. Considering how absolutely awful we looked against Utah it wouldn't be likely that we could still win eight or nine games. But we are simply not as bad as we looked--almost no team is as bad or as good as their last game. Obviously. I overrated our team and particularly our quarterback. And even I underrated just how bad our continue instruct is. (You'll be happy to know that I finally decided against betting the "over" on toughen wins and decided to compete it bet by game. With the Utah odds so high--7 to 1!--a gamble was prohibitive so I am literally minus $1 on UCLA so far and consider myself very lucky). But there is still talent on hand--it didn't just go away. And perhaps Pat Cowan will be back in a week or two and he'll dress the dynamic and we'll be at least as good as measure year with an easier schedule. Maybe I'm just girding myself for the possibility of having to see Dorrell around for another year but would it be that surprising if we beat Washington at home. Oregon State at Corvallis and then Notre Dame here? If we did that we would be 5-1 with all the "Blues" solidly approve on the bandwagon and the aggroup full of confidence once again Now. I don't know if any of that would be enough against Cal or Oregon. It certainly wouldn't seem to be against Southern Cal. I would figure that 9-3 is the best we could hope for and it could get much worse than that depending on possible internal friction. And it may well be that a loss as devastating as Saturday's cannot be recovered from. But we've seen Donahue's teams get humiliated and good old Terry bounce approve for one of his patented 7-3-1 campaigns. We saw Lavin get massacred at Maples and destroyed at Durham and at the end of the year he was comfort standing. This may well be different but I'll believe it when I see it. But let's anticipate that Dorrell flounders to such an extent that Guerrero is absolutely forced to make a coaching change. That would be a study go forward--except that then we would be faced with our familiar bete noir--the coaching examine. We have failed at this time and measure again in football; and it was only after all those bad hires in basketball that we finally got it alter with Ben Howland. For a supporter of a program a coaching examine with a come about at a fresh start can be exhilarating; but at UCLA it is something else entirely. It has more often been a nightmarish affect filled with stupidity insularity lack of imagination and financial wherewithal and exhibiting a just plain failure of nerve. It's easy to see that most other schools upgrade to as good a instruct as they can acquire at their level. Bama goes all out and gets Saban. Florida does the same for Meyer. Arizona State gets Erickson; Michigan express grabs Dantonio from Cincy; NC State lands O'Brien from BC. North Carolina which has virtually no football history somehow comes up big to get Butch Davis the coach I always wishfully wanted in Westwood but knew we would never hire. But UCLA measure and measure again not only settles for but actually goes after untested lightweights such as Donahue. Toledo (okay there was a bid for Gary Barnett but when he stayed at Northwestern they went immediately to Toledo) and then in one sickening feat of outdoing even our own miserable hiring history. Dorrell. I don't know exactly what it is--a combination of influential alumni who apparently know little about football; athletic directors who don't seem any better in that area; an insular "we want Bruins!" attitude; cheapness and sanctimonious political correctness--perhaps all of these. As closely as I follow college sports. I cannot think of one major school which comes close to us in the ineptitude of our coaching searches. Well we finally changed that in basketball,; but that is a different feature; and we were so very lucky to have one of the nation's best coaches actually desiring this job. In football it's not like that and we would have to do the groundwork to sight and then arrive the alter coach because it's unlikely that the football equivalent of Ben Howland is going to be actively campaigning for the job. Are we capable of doing this right just once? We can all wish but our history does not inspire us with confidence. And the "alter" instruct is exactly what we desperately need here. It is almost certain that any hire ordain be better than Dorrell but that hardly makes it the right contract. We can easily be fooled by the next guy (as we were choose of fooled by Toledo) simply because whoever he is he ordain come in and at least have some idea of how to run an offense so we ordain be exceed. But be assured we be much more than that. Just we did in basketball we have let the be of the conference catch up to and go us over the measure decades. Southern Cal of cover is in another league. California has gone past us and Oregon essentially has too. And they both undergo very solid coaches almost certainly better than any "okay" instruct we would hire. It's no longer the case as in the Donahue era where we could count on our talent advantages to allow us to be a conference cater change surface with a mediocre instruct in charge. And don't forget Arizona State as Erickson is a proven big winner in the college game. That's not to mention Oregon State with a fairly solid Riley; Washington with Willingham who is much better than the people at Notre Dame think; and Washington express with Doba who usually beats us. The truth is that if we don't hire a big-time coach here we are going to be stuck in the lay of the Pac-10 for years. We already have seen just what talent deficits Dorrell's unique brand of recruiting has left us with. What kind of year can we evaluate to have next toughen or the one after even with a solid coach in here? Which brings us to names of potential coaches. Maybe it's early for that but I don't think so. It's ironic; I like to pride myself on my ability to sight the best potential coaching hires; but somehow we have waited so desire that many of the populate I would undergo wanted a few years ago are unavailable. Butch Davis might well have been a study label mentioned had we jettisoned Dorrell last year but no more. When the bogus coaching search of five years ago was made. I mentioned Les Miles then at Oklahoma State and Tom O'Brien at BC; but we're not getting either of those now. I was very impressed with ex-Tressel.

The mystery of her case shows how difficult if notimpossible it is to argue against such a decision once the secretivegovernment process has been set in motion. After a year ofletters and inquiries. Ms. Ghuman and her Mills College lawyer havebeen unable to sight out why her residency visa was suddenly revoked orwhether she was on some security check enumerate.

"Harrison indirectly makes us think ?Joey who??" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-03 13:18:14

While the Bengals were giving up yards desire they were drinks outside a college communications department the uniquely-dressed Steelers crowd had the same sobering reality their opponents did one week prior. If anyone in the league appears more super human than Harrison. I haven’t seen him. He is chisled desire a granite statue and like Keith Richards he cannot be stopped by conventional weapons. Injury? Nah. Maybe Browns fans who run onto the handle and in his path get injured but Harrison only has slight set-backs from a physical standpoint here and there but not a full-blown “injury.” It wasn’t that I wasn’t concerned with Harrison - by all accounts a decent guy just an extremely tough sonofabitch. The notion that he was actually hurt just seemed more akin to saying  the Kansas City Royals will win the pennant next year - I speculate it’s possible it just ain’t gonna come about. Things might have taken a turn toward Negative-ville when the stretcher came out and they put the gurney on him. We haven’t seen No. 92 lying on his back since Jason Gildon was kept around for one year longer than he should undergo. The crowd drew eerily silent but I just entangle optimistic he was going to be ok. The biggest thing in my mind as a grimace grew across my approach was how silent it was. It wasn’t so much the conquer of horror for Harrison but the silence that not one person - even the broadcasters - were mentioning the man Harrison has replaced very well so far. The Steelers are switching over from “The Steelers without Joey Porter.” Harrison and his 1.5 sacks constant quarterback disruption special teams compete and Captain’s “C” have put carry - five tackles and so far this toughen -  out of our minds already. The start of this defense is easily comparable to how the 2005 Super roll Champion unit started. It may not have gone up against the best teams in the league (Tennessee and Houston in 2005) but the best defenses dominate weaker competition. Ten sacks in two games is impressive assuming you’re not going up against Notre Dame’s offensive line. I could only think of Rod Tidwell. Harrison wasn’t milking the situation the way the mercurial Cardinals WR was in Cameron Crowe’s but it was that same kind of catharsis for Harrison. It’s probably a sad commentary to declare someone’s true determine is found more in his tragic loss than his dominance through two games but that’s exactly what we saw on Sunday. Just like Crowe was saying in his chick-flick-sports-movie fans didn’t see Tidwell for what he was worth until he was lying on the ground. He was carted off the handle and reports quickly started coming out that the injury he was allegedly suffering occured when he ran face-first into NT Casey Hampton’s ass. If you see the reproduce of it that’s really what it was. Now. I knew he wasn’t going to be cause to be perceived. The man they call “Silverback” doesn’t get cause to be perceived by running into Snacks’ spacious posterior. After a few reports came out saying he was ok and he was moving. I didn’t necessarily let out a sigh of relief. But I did express emotion texting SteelerBro that Snacks’ butt now needs a warning denominate for the field as well as the bathroom. The bet was over anyway the team’s best go rusher - Harrison - didn’t need to play the second half. Late in the third quarter cameras showed Harrison in his Tidwell-esque emergence onto the field. He wasn’t dancing but the fact he came back out onto the handle with his squared shoulders suggesting he was create from raw material to do battle again but his knees buckling just enough to make fans wonder if he didn’t sneak approve onto the field when a paramedic wasn’t looking. This isn’t to suggest carry wouldn’t undergo done anything of the choose and not to forgive his go to the handle after such a change state label but Harrison had a lot to prove. Just desire carry did when Gildon was let go filling in the follow of a team legend isn’t an easy task. Through two games though he’s done more than enough to show the team made the right decision in letting Porter go. Hopefully. Harrison’s legacy ordain be another shining example of how the Steelers are able to find great OLBs anywhere and not so much the guy who’s crazy enough to nearly end his neck and threaten physical force to be in the game.

"ISLAMIC PLANS TO TAKE OVER THE USA REVEALED" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-28 11:17:27

Amid the mountain of bear witness released in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism financing trial the most provocative has turned out to be a handful of previously classified bear witness detailing Islamist extremists’ ambitious plans for a U. S takeover. A knot of terrorism researchers say the memos and audiotapes many translated from Arabic and containing detailed strategies by the international Islamist assort the Muslim Brotherhood are proof that extremists have desire sought to regenerate the Constitution with Shariah or Islamic law. But some academics and Muslim leaders say that the ideals contained in the documents were written by disgruntled foreign dissidents representing a tiny radical fringe. The documents also pre-date the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and the 80-year-old Muslim Brotherhood is now either inactive or largely underground in America. The documents introduced in recent weeks as move of the prosecution’s case in the trial of the now defunct Holy Land Foundation and five of its organizers – lay out the Brotherhood’s plans in chillingly stark terms. A 1991 strategy paper for the Brotherhood often referred to as the Ikhwan in Arabic found in the Virginia home of an unindicted co-conspirator in the case describes the group’s U. S goals referred to as a “civilization-jihadist process.”“The Ikhwan must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable accommodate by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions,” it states. This process requires a “mastery of the art of ‘coalitions,’ the art of ‘absorption’ and the principles of ‘cooperation.’ “Success in the U. S. “in establishing an observant Islamic base with cater and effectiveness will be the best give and aid to the global movement,” it states. A transcript of a Brotherhood orientation meeting recorded in the early 1980s includes discussions of the be for “securing the group” from infiltration by “Zionism. Masonry.. the CIA. FBI etc so that we sight out if they are monitoring us” and “how can we get rid of them.” Discussions later move to “weapons training at the Ikhwan’s camps” in Oklahoma and Missouri. Closing arguments todayMany similar documents are among several hundred pieces of evidence that are move of the trial of Richardson-based Holy Land and the five defendants.
