Every few yards, roadway signs directed me toward homemade kiosks draped with nets and lined with plastic crates. Women sitting in doorways shucked away, while their children, eager to practice their English, scooped out the craggy-shelled seafood. Old folks spoke of mussel-farming days of years past, and waiters in restaurants were quick to tell visitors how to replicate recipes back home. People talked about the difficulties of working with mussels and oysters, especially in the winter when winds kick up and biting rain makes the job even tougher. “Mussels are easier to grow [than oysters],” said Jerko Radic, a waiter at Mali Ston’s Taverna Bota Sare who doubles as a tour guide on the restaurant’s summer boat cruise, which trolls the nearby waters and offers a shellfish lunch on a convenient island.

Cape Town-based Adams comes from a good musical pedigree. He was the lead vocalist in the ’90s hard rock band, Nine. While they never achieved commercial success, they were one of the most respected groups on the live scene because the musicianship of the four members was excellent. For the lighter side of music, the group formed Firing Squad, a pumping ragga-cum- dance hall crew that rocked every gig and festival for a few years. Again, Farrell’s vocals and live performances (he gives his all) really set the band apart. He also sang in another group, Golliwog, which had much potential.

Islamist radicals in prison: How many?
Christian Science Monitor – Sep 20, 2006
The practice is more prevalent in European prisons, where the Muslim population is primarily made up of first- and second- generation immigrants with close ties to South Asia. Richard Reid, the attempted shoe bomber who was arrested in 2001, converted and became radicalized, according to prosecutors, while behind bars in Britain. There has been only one publicly documented incident in the United States where officials say home-grown prison Islamists attempted to directly foment violence on the outside: In September 2005, police in California disrupted what they say was a plot by Kevin Lamar James, a self-styled leader of an Islamist inmate group, to blow up government facilities and Jewish synagogues in the Los Angeles area. In 2004, a study by the inspector general of federal prisons found there was no coherent system for screening out extremist chaplains, and more than half of all religious services were not monitored. The Federal Bureau of Prisons responded by setting up a vetting process for its chaplains and religious volunteers. But 93 percent of inmates are in state and local prisons, which have a shortage of qualified Muslim chaplains as well as a lack of trained correctional officers to identify extremist ideology.
