Unbelievable story about forgiveness and love of humanity. . "In Texas a hate crime victim is attempting to save the life of a convicted murderer who shot him in the face at close range after 9/11. Rais Bhuiyan is suing Governor Rick Perry in order to stop the execution of death row prisoner Mark Stroman scheduled for Wednesday. Stroman shot Bhuiyan in 2001, partially blinding him in his right eye. Stroman, an Aryan Brotherhood member, also killed Vasudev Patel, an Indian immigrant who was Hindu, and Waqar Hasan, a Muslim born in Pakistan. “I strongly believe what Mark Stroman did was a hate crime because of his ignorance. He was not capable of distinguishing between right and wrong. Otherwise, he would not have done what he did,” Bhuiyan said. “The way my parents raised me and the way my faith teaches me, no one has a right to take another human life. Islam does not allow for hate and killing.” In a statement written in prison, Stroman says, “Not only do I have all My friends and supporters trying to Save my Life, but now i have The Islamic Community Joining in ... Spearheaded by one Very Remarkable man named Rais Bhuiyan, Who is a Survivor of My Hate. His deep Islamic Beliefs Have gave him the strength to Forgive the Un-forgiveable ... that is truly Inspiring to me, and should be an Example for us all. The Hate, has to stop, we are all in this world together."

Saalax, Unlike "Somaliland", my participation in Somalia's peace process helps it move forward and preserve its political union. Reality should dictate Somalia should not be hijacked by a certain group or corrupt individuals with ulterior motive.

Zack, I reserve not the weaknesses of politicians if they have an agenda that directly or indirectly harms the public while trying to overreach their perceived namesis. I was the first to acknowledge his achievements, but we should be able to separate the wheat from the chaff; Farmajo might had been driven by good intentions but in reality he was very venturesome and naive when it comes to treading the fine political line. We can conclude from this short period of time that the power-sharing scheme was part of his blunders that cost us the failure of the TFG and the resultant stalemate btw the two Shariifs. So Xalane joined Save the Children board? That is good move in light of the East African drought.

The people of Sanaag and Haylaan regions and parts of Lower Juba. In retrospect, the lean 18 # cabinet was first implemented by PM Nur Adde, and in that, the Maakhir regions were recognized as an integral part of the peace process. Some regional experts attributed Farmajo's blunder as a conspiracy to wreck Puntland or divide its stakeholders. We all know Farmajo was very hostile to both SL and PL.

Of course it was Mr. Zack unless you're feigning ignorance. Farmajo's blunders had nothing to do with how the qualifications of his cabinet ministers were vetted as everyone agrees but at his inclination to contravene the power-sharing formula. We're talking about a major political base being excluded from Somalia's peace process.

^ :D

As far as the formation of the cabinet is concerned, the same blunder made by Dr. ABDIWALI's predecessor might not be repeated even if the efforts to wean off some clans from their al-Shabab leanings don't succeed.

xiinfaniin, JB knows how Puntland is outshining SL at the state and federal level.

^The pirates are "Somali-landers". Having listened to a BBC reporter who had conducted interviews with some of the pirates, I had no idea that the bulk of the inmates held in Mandhera prison were from Burco and Hargeisa towns until then. I believe no region in Somalia can insulate itself from this lucrative , criminal entrrprise given the dismal socio-economic conditions of Somalia in general nor can the world escape from the scourge of piracy without a viable Somali Government.

Drill baby drill. Timur, Dharoor valley is nothing but a different name for Al Mado aka Calmadow basin. It has been adopted after the Maakhir rejection of the shady deals btw Range Resources, Ltd. and Puntland. I agree they have now retreated for exploration to the far Eastern end of that Basin, not where it's highly prospective saxib. Check this map and educate yourself Taleexi, well said!

What assignments? "the process of Africans inventing and discovering their own political boundaries has finally begun, after some 50 years of waiting." ^That sums up and it helps if you have the prospect for a huge oil discovery.

Successful spud for Range Resources and Red Emperor Thu, 14/07/2011 - 09:46 | Fiona Bond Joint venture partners Range Resources*(RRL) and Red Emperor Resources*(RMP) have successfully spudded the Mukhiani 1 well in Georgia. Along with fellow joint venture partner, Strait Oil and Gas, the trio will drill the well to a depth of 3,500 metres over the next 45-55 days. Mukhiani 1 is targeting a prospect with a mean estimate of undiscovered oil in place of 115 million barrels with 46 million barrels attributable to Range's 40% interest and 23 million barrels attributable to Red Emperor's 20% interest. The well marks the first of an anticipated three to four high-impact exploration wells to be drilled this year across Range Resource's Georgian, Puntland, Texan and Trinidadian exploration assets. Range's executive director Peter Landau hailed the spudding a "significant milestone" for the company. "It is our maiden well spud as an operator and the culmination of a significant amount of appraisal work completed by Strait's operations team," he said. The recently completed geochemical helium survey undertaken by Range confirmed the suitability of the first drill location with oil exploration and development prospectivity complementing earlier seismic work carried out on the target, the company said. The well also marks a significant development in Red Emperor's development, having made its debut on the AIM market just last month. Director Greg Bandy said: "This is a significant milestone as it is our maiden well and the first of three to four high-impact exploration wells expected to be drilled on the company's projects this year. "After being admitted to AIM last month, we are delighted to be able to provide the market with a significant news flow so soon after listing." Following the successful completion of the Mukhiani 1 well, the rig will move on to spud the second exploration wells as part of the two-well drilling programme in Georgia.

Puntland to be recognized first before "Somaliland".

October 11, 2006 (CXM -- TSXV)...Canmex Minerals Corporation ("Canmex" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") to acquire an 80% interest in licenses covering the highly prospective Nogal and Al Medo/Darin basins in the state of Puntland in northern Somalia. The Nogal and Al Medo/Darin basins are considered world-class exploration plays with a petroleum system identical to and formerly contiguous with those within the Republic of Yemen. Please see attached map. The Yemeni basins, after 20 years of exploration and development drilling, are known to contain in excess of nine billion barrels of oil equivalent reserves with current production of over 400,000 barrels of oil per day. Most production has been from Lower Cretaceous Qishn sandstone reservoirs sourced by Upper Jurassic Madbi Shales. In Yemen, between 1994 and 2006, there was an average discovery size of 96 MMBOE recoverable reserves with a discovery success rate of 23%. Somalia, part of the same land mass as Yemen prior to rifting in the Gulf of Aden, is a virtually unexplored territory, with only 60 wildcats in some 580,000 km² of sedimentary basins, 11 oil and gas discoveries, and a wildcat success rate that is comparable with the best oil provinces in the world. Mature, oil-prone source-rocks combined with multiple reservoir rocks and structures occur in a variety of geological settings. The sedimentary basins within the acreage covered under the MOU are identical to the productive oil basins of Yemen. The MOU has been signed with Range Resources Ltd. ("Range"), a public company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. Canmex and Range are at arm's length. Pursuant to the MOU, Canmex has the right to acquire an 80% interest in the licenses and operatorship thereof in exchange for: (i) the financial commitment over an initial four year period of US$50 million in exploration expenditures; and (ii) the payment to Range of an additional US$3.5 million upon commencement of commercial production. Completion of the transactions contemplated in the MOU is conditional upon: (i) the successful completion of technical and legal due diligence by Canmex; (ii) negotiation and finalization of definitive binding agreements between Canmex and Range, including a Joint Operating Agreement and binding agreements among Canmex and Range and the Ministry of Energy of Puntland, including a Production Sharing Agreement; and (iii) all requisite governmental, regulatory and other consents including those required in Puntland and the Somali Republic. The acreage that is covered by the MOU is currently licensed to Range under a Contract of Work (CoW) issued under the authority of the Puntland State Government and includes both hydrocarbon and mineral rights. The Transitional Federal Government ("TFG") of Somalia recognizes the State of Puntland and has recently endorsed the Range CoW and the proposed Range/Canmex partnership. Discussions have commenced with the Puntland State Government to agree upon terms for a Production Sharing Agreement over the Nogal and Al Medo Basin hydrocarbon concessions.

Good Job. Were they appointed fairly based on the level of their experience, training, education, wisdom, probity, etc. Or did the regional background of each member play a major role in the selection process?
