Happy birthday ... Westie!! I bet paya is providing the perfect gift!!

I met a teen like last year ... at a gay get together ... he and his uncle has aids ... I forgot the nature how they contracted it ... I've talk to his uncle in past conversations on different topics and its like talking to anyone who doesn't have aids except that their life style is different. I got to talk to the teen ... he's seems to be fine ... he friendly. Its my first time to talk to someone younger than me who has aids. Of course I don't know if he's on aids med ... the kind that sort of a long term cure ... like taking BP pill for ever. When the get together ended ... we said good bye and I gave him a hug ... I guess to let him know I'm not scared to treat him like a regular person ... rather than pity But I do wonder what he thought of the hug?

I wonder whats giving briget a headache ... Sanchez is going to deliver on his promise this time ... so what is she worrying now... Its not like right now Sanchez can prove different the situation nor can he get the ares info ... unless he finds the boat in Austrailia as far as she knows its in the atlantic ... All she has is a series of what ifs or in case of - senerios It be cool if Trevor finds his mom or relatives very soon ... perhaps shark bay?? bu i guess many of u will say no .... well its going to be thanks giving and then plus four weeks Joel and Lisa that give CJ at least 4 to 8 chapters to keep us guessing I wonder what the chapter sniffers will turn up? - - - - So far Trevor and Shane are in good company with each other similarities Now they both can bait the women for more tips They will at least have a good time The good question is will we get more clues in austrailia? or just get more clues from Harry and officer Gonzales Gosh we could use more of the Gonzales upping the heat but he can't do anything to alert george So I guess we will see the FBI or CIA or NSA involved Another character for CJ to add unless Lisa and Joel are get good at finding out that Bridget was bugging them then deside to do some re-directs and get BG in trouble

This story takes place in 2005 or 2006 911 is 2001 So yes Security is Tight But I'm not sure what is done in Austrailia? I haven't left the country since 911

The faces behind the story ... the children ... why were they taken ,,, what happen to the adults? Somali-pirates-threaten-kill-family-5-pictured-yachting-holiday That route would take the family through the Gulf of Aden, one of the most dangerous waterways in the world in terms of piracy. 'They expected to be home in August,' said Mr Meridin Petersen. The Danish sailboat was seized by pirates in the Indian Ocean last Thursday and it is the first time youngsters have been caught up in the continuing run of high seas hijacks. .... 'It is almost unbearable to think that there are children involved and I can only sharply denounce the pirates' actions,' she said.

Congratuations CJ!!! Cia must have stuff the ballot box!!

I am laughing not at the content of the monologue ... but the presentation of the monologue All I have to say its not very typical for an asian dude to act that way ... well maybe not in front of his parents but be very funny if he did ... and then the Asian parents go off and argue "he your son ... not my son" and if the son show a million dollar check for the comedy routine ... "He's our son!!"

I was astonish to find an article that shows the military guy as a prisoner of the pirates. and then astonish on the date after posting I figure ppl can always read the article

It depends on .... how really sexually grasping the characters are ... would we want to see how they do it It shear comedy of someone observing the reader who questioning on reading the sex scene It shear comedy of the blog reader who reading the about a reader who's question on reading a straight authors take on two gay guys having an imaginary sex scene ... when one can call up the real stuff on-demand cable. gosh ... does this sound provocative to a virgin who can't get pas the parental lock outs on the remote

The victim looking at the pirate "I'm gon gonna die without water?" The pirate indirectly says (10 sec later in broken english) " your going to die." Then here comes a news reporter reporting (four hours later)"your going to die.' Then we have an independent writer writing (two years later) "You're going to die!!!" How much inventing of comedy do we can get? ---- Ya its hot enough there anyway ... but the question be is the prisoner actually exposed to the elements or not or still on the air condition boat? we don't know ... but whats true by at the end of seven days ... some will smell ripe. most certain after two years ... we have proof in 2010 the movie ... after five years --- Yes its really an art form to play straight guys part in a comedy routine Remember comedy is hard ... shake-spear is easy

Every kids dream to be Captain Hook!! or Peter Pan!! or the lost Kids imagine 15 kids wrecking on it and it collapses - after day after day fun

Article Continued It's likely that the truth about all the money made from piracy will never be uncovered. What is clear is that several elements in Somali society are benefiting, and that piracy will remain an attractive career option as long as the country remains without central authority. But it is wrong to transfer theories about money laundering and international crime onto Somali piracy. The problem is unique, the country is unique, and speculation will lead to misguided policies which are likely to prolong the dangers facing any ship that sails along the long unruly coast of Somalia.

I guess there are those who don't want another Iraq ... too costly unless the other countries contribute. I am not sure if they are as militaristic-ally resistant ... perhaps not ... unless the warlords and sponsors want to get into a war ... they know that the UN or USA will not do anything ... and they are quite confortable with the way things are. It is been reported in the news that Somalia doesn't have much of any govt. To est govt like an Iraq is one thing but there isn't any thing there to sustain a gov't ... no oil fields to support the country economically You practically have to invade the country with business ... transform the country into supporting a self sustaining govt but first you have to have the military move in and clear out the warlords. To do it this way would cut out the big need to police the state very much hopefully you get them to police against ever having warlords. Another thing is that ... this should not be consider free. Iraq or Somila or any other country that gets helped to be an independent nation should pay off a debt to the UN or the USA. I am not sure how much Iraq cost ... but why should 335 million ppl have to foot the bill? The other 8 billion ppl needs to kick in their share ... well maybe they all didn't like Bush's vendetta. Looks like you can have six places to put mines or station a ship to prevent insecure shipping. Map Hehehe, I like to see the news authors like reply to your comments. You only one or two steps away from being a comedian. -- - - - Danish child hostages moved to ship off Somalia Somali pirates say they have moved a party of Danes including three children from their hijacked yacht to a ship moored off the Somali coast. Spokesmen for the pirates said the seven Danish citizens had been put on a ship where other foreign hostages are already being held. Chasing the Somali piracy money trail Although there is no universal set of rules, a UN report based on information gathered from pirates based in the north-eastern village of Eyl, reveals some interesting information about how the ransom spoils are divided: • Maritime militia, pirates involved in actual hijacking - 30% • Ground militia (armed groups who control the territory where the pirates are based) - 10% • Local community (elders and local officials) - 10% • Financier - 20% • Sponsor - 30% 'Compensation' scheme Pirates interviewed by the BBC have been reluctant to say exactly how much money they make from a successful hijacking, but reports indicate they make tens of thousands of dollars rather than millions. This is because piracy has developed into a mini-economy, employing hundreds of people in north-eastern and central Somalia, all of whom need their share of the ransom.

Interesting from two yrs ago It talks about US-Flagg ship captain being held hostage and the pirates going in safey in numbers when up agains a military vessel. Sorry can paste article - due to websites issues of copyright. Here's the link US ship in stand-off with Somali pirates

Thanks for the reply, Rilbur Perhaps just destroying the trawlers\pod carrying crafts would do ... and then make the skifts would run out of fuel and ammo and then pick them and make sure they never return. Red_a says their all high on drugs ... the withdrawals would be great punishment them. It will cut down the actual ship to ship fighting. CJames says long distance firing is the advantage of better guns. As Red_A said its run by four warlords ... its also best to take them out ... it must be drugs or something related that keeps them in business. I surprise we're not covertly putting them out of business and may that will stop piracy all together. No one to pay the supplies and amo. Treat them like drug lords. mmm perhaps we should be strongly be helping the govt but not really sujgating them. I bet the somali govt would allow that in trade for food, medical supplies etc for period of time. Perhaps its best to teach somila how to fish rather than take fish. They are having a drought and the poor ppl are suffering. Warlords have plenty of food and water ... but only to enlist those into piracy in order for some poor person to help their family. It be great if they something ... its obvious any countries military can take care of the situation and turn the issue around. But nothing has truely happen in recent six years or perphaps 20 years Below is how bad the political situation is. Pay ransom to free a ship, a court system in somali would tend to be a revoling door. Its not good enough. I don't see any news with the world to be applaud that children are added to the victims list. Somali pirates send bank details with deadline to Burney KARACHI: The Somali pirates, who had hijacked MV Suez, a ship of Red Sea Navigation, with Panama flag in the Gulf of Aden in August 2010, on Wednesday, refused to release only Pakistanis or Indians and gave four days ultimatum for the life of crew members if they didn’t get $2.3 million, the United Nations Expert Adviser on Human Rights, Ansar Burney, who is in touch and negotiating with the pirates in Somalia for the early release of the hostages, said. The bank accounts given to Burney by Somali Pirates are one of ‘Islam Malaysia Berhad Labuan’ Offshore Branch New York, US, and 2nd bank account is of DAYAX Islamic Bank. “It’s a terrible condition in which they are right now. For the last one week, the pirates are torturing them because the owner has refused to pay the ransom. The Pakistani and Indian governments can put pressure to force the owner of the ship to pay ransom, so that the ship can be released. The pirates have stopped the crew’s food and water for the past four to five days,” he said. Ansar Burney said that the condition of the hostages was critical as they had been sailing in the Somali sea for the past nearly eight months. “Earlier, they were being given some boiled rice and fish with sea water by their captors but now they didn’t receive any food or water for the last three days”, he said. On Wednesday, the Somali pirates on telephone informed Ansar Burney that after getting the money they will release all of the crew members or in other case they will kill all of them. ‘And they cannot release Pakistanis or Indians only, all will have to release or to die together.” —PR Pirates Could Soon Face U.S. Military Action The United States may soon respond more aggressively to Somali piracy following a warning to the United Nations Security Council that the pirates are becoming "the masters" of the Indian Ocean. .... He recommended that piracy-focused courts and prisons be established in the breakaway regions of Puntland and Somaliland. A Somali-administered court should also be set up in Arusha during a transitional period prior to being transferred to Mogadishu, Mr Lang added. Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete is "open" to this proposal, he said. It would cost about $25 million to establish these courts and prisons, Mr Lang estimated, suggesting that is a small price in comparison to the billions of dollars lost to piracy. Ms Rice said the United States agreed that "targeted co-operation with Somaliland and Puntland [should] be increased." That comment is causing some analysts to speculate that the Obama administration may be moving toward tacit recognition of the two territories as sovereign entities.

Negotiations with bad guys? There is a bigger chance that they will be killed than to be exchanged I have no idea what has happen in past cases? and how will the pirates avoid capture or how they will pick up the ransom? Pirated Danish yacht, family anchor near Somalia (17 hrs ago) NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A Danish family kidnapped by pirates has reached the shore of Somalia, officials and a pirate said Wednesday, likely meaning a long hostage ordeal for the couple and their three teenage children who were abducted while yachting around the world. The family has been moved to a larger ship, and none of the hostages has been harmed, a pirate said. Later Wednesday, the Danish government said it had established contact with the pirates and their hostages. "They are doing well under the circumstances," the Foreign Ministry said in a brief statement. It said a professional security firm was handling negotiations with the pirates, declining to give more details, citing concern for the hostages and their relatives. The statement did not mention anything about a ransom. A Somali pirate previously warned that if any attempt was made to rescue them, they would meet the same fate as the four American yachters slain by their pirate captors last week. Any chance of a quick rescue seemed to disappear Wednesday. .... Abdirizak Ahmed, who heads the anti-piracy program in Puntland, Somalia's semiautonomous northern region, where most pirates are based, was attending a two-day workshop in Denmark this week on the legal aspects of prosecuting pirates. "On behalf of the Puntland state of Somalia, I want to say that we are very sad about the situation," said Ahmed. "In order to save these people, let us wait. Any action, including military action and we have seen what happened to the American couple a couple of days ago, we don't want that to happen again. ... Let us wait, let us wait, please."

Those ships are just too big to fight highly maneuverable vessels. Shoot a torpedo ... they can easily get out of a way ... shoot a shell ... they still move out of the way They can just serve as deployment assistance .... in multiple areas Its like having dog fights on water ... you destroy them with similar out fitted vessels ... it guerrilla warfare on water Big boats are for fighting big boats .... its a laugh for manverable vessels ... Mines don't have to be high tech .... just enough of a field of objects to force them to run into ... disable them ... then perhaps a ship of your choice can pick them up or shoot them out of the water They have to be easily deployed as well as un-deployed ... so they can be towed to a different area and used on another group of them Perhaps maybe between two large vessels we can have a special netting that can be use to disable each group of pirates that come between the two ships A lot easier than mines Your assumption is that they operate out of one place ... they don't ... they operate anywhere ... they can get easily ... resupplied They are not centralize ... now who do they take their loot and money to? No idea I suspect they are like own and operated - they will use whatever they can plunder so they can resupply locally or make periodic runs to a war supply depot for rpg or raid local store for ak47 bulletets Red_a has a point that they are so spread out they seem to have many mobile base of operations ... not a centralize operations .... you have to attack them surgically ... group by group The war on pirates is easier to win than the war on terrorism with the right tools, tactics, and train personnel Its also crucial to attack their supply and material lines ... to disband each groups ability to operate It takes a lot of time for a group of big ships to move from place to place ... But a mobile group can make a difference ... the enemy can see big ships coming and they can move out to another location quickly Another issue is ... are they affiliated with drug cartels, terrorist, etc etc .... also we need to deter them from forming any alliances eventually you will find the queens nest and then take it out but that takes time to locate ... it may not be one queen nest once you show forces to look for them - they just go hide and relocate their base of operations This is not organize war fare Blockade and taking over Somali isn't very much of a solution You might as well take over Africa itself Big boy war toys and military muscle will be a very big debate on the floor of the UN or by any country Big bills that any govt won't foot the bill - unless more innocent lives are put into the news This is what the pirates are doing now - getting the world to notice them We lost the Vietnam ... its an unconventional war ... we just pulled out the war on terrorism is another unconventional war ... its bankrupting our country Already the terrorist announced they will use other means to win their war Another level of unconventional battles ... more costly issues

How do you have trevor in two places ... on the boat giving words to shane and then the customs shack watching shane from a far ( you forgot to give trevor binoculars ) I hope in the next chapter you'll have trevor admiring shane in joels shorts. I don't think he'll get his gun ... unless he's departing austrailia into international waters. Perhaps shane has access to the blakes guns or harpoones or flair guns

I don't think destroyers would stop them .... like 50 speed armed boats ... would cost much less ... plus a blockade of mines or stuff that would wreck a speed boat like CJ floating tree ... we can use automated air attacks to wreck their supply of weapons, fuel, boats and men ... most likely ... I think we have to hire mercenaries to do this because its a big issue of fighting them with the same tatics they use The stupid thing is why does it require years to respond to the issue?

I hear it got the worst movie of the year award .... I wonder how much it cost to make it. I saw the preview ... though it was cheesy ... over playing these myths ... it makes the Jackie Chan movie "The myth" a better movie I wonder if the writers have been dipping into the mercury balls (emperor chin favorite drug trip) If its entertainment (with the special effects) I say its dazzling in that fashion

Well the hair job will be a good cover for Trevor but pass the Sanchez issue to Shane. The good question is will they be safe from being observed or followed on the way to shark bay and if they get hit there. Pity Kline still suspects ... perhaps it might work in Trevor favor to have one reporter still tailing ... he might catch on to sanchez. Hey its scary that sanchez is there ... he might already have chartered a boat. That southern cross thing maybe funny but maybe that might put sanchez suspicion onto Trevor any way. Now the good question is when will he make the hit on trevor since you could say he's found them maybe. You think he'll find ned place and discover atlantis? I like share wearing the joel's shorts ... I bet trevor like it too ... makes you wonder if trevor been looking a shane more.
