Swarms of cicadas emerging in Midwest

Amazing how this tiny creature can cause havoc to us..

SOURCE: Yahoo News online

By TARA BURGHART, Associated Press Writer Sun May 20, 4:48 PM ET

CHICAGO - Coming soon: Brood XIII. It sounds like a bad horror movie. But it's actually the name of the billions of cicadas expected to emerge this month in parts of the Midwest after spending 17 years underground.

The red-eyed, shrimp-sized, flying insects don't bite or sting. But they are known for mating calls that produce a din that can overpower ringing telephones, lawn mowers and power tools.

Brood XIII is expected across northern Illinois, and in parts of Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and Indiana. Cicadas live only about 30 days as adults, and their main goal is mating.

They don't harm humans, although they are clumsy and might fly into people. Birds, squirrels and pets, especially dogs, love to eat them, and they are high in protein.

"They're going to have quite a meal. It's going to be like Thanksgiving for them," said Tom Tiddens, supervisor for plant health care at the Chicago Botanic Garden.

They are periodical cicadas, which are only found in the eastern half of North America. The annual, or dog-day cicadas, that appear every summer are common around the world.

The last massive emergence of periodical cicadas was in 2004, when Brood X emerged after 17 years underground in parts of 15 Eastern states. Some broods emerge after 13 years.

As nymphs burrowing underground, cicadas suck sap from tree roots. Almost all members of a group, or brood, burst from the ground within a couple days of each other.

They quickly climb the nearest vertical surface to molt and unroll their wings. In some heavily wooded areas, as many as 1.5 million cicadas per acre will crowd onto trees, expert say.

"It's one of the greatest insect emergences on Earth," said Daniel Summers, an entomologist at The Field Museum.

A single male's shrill courtship call can reach 90 decibels, equivalent to a kitchen blender. That could sour plans for outdoor events over the next few weeks.

Ravinia Festival, a 103-year-old music festival held north of Chicago, revised its schedule to avoid classical musicians having to compete with the insects, said festival president and CEO Welz Kauffman.

June will see more pop bands outdoors, a few concerts moved indoors and a visit from the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. "With 350 voices on stage, they can hold their own against the bugs," Kauffman said.

At the Chicago Botanic Garden, spokeswoman Gloria Ciaccio joked that her advice for brides holding outdoor weddings there will be to put the tent flaps down and turn the music up.

An Illinois company that provides ice sculptures has turned down several outdoor parties over the next month. That's because of what happened when Nadeau Ice Sculptures owner Jim Nadeau delivered a swan statue to a wedding in 1990, during the area's last emergence of the periodical cicadas.

"We put our tray down and immediately the cicadas came off the ground and attacked the ice. Literally, it was a moving sculpture, this big black ugly mass of cicadas constantly moving," said Nadeau.

"I don't want to talk myself out of work, but that was just too gross," he said.

Exactly when the cicadas will emerge is a subject of debate, although there is agreement they emerge once the soil temperature is consistently 64 to 65 degrees for several days. Biologists and insect experts predict the cicadas will emerge between Tuesday and June 1.

The best place to see — and hear — the cicadas will be forest preserves, golf courses and any land where there are older trees where the soil has been undisturbed since 1990.

Freelance writer David Hammond runs the LTHForum, a Chicago-based Internet site devoted to culinary matters, and his "foodie" friends want to see what the cicadas taste like.

The insects are eaten in other parts of the world, with descriptions of the taste ranging from shrimp to canned asparagus to not much at all.

No recipe has been decided upon yet, but Hammond assumes they will be fried and perhaps accompanied by a dip or salsa.

"Honestly, they'll probably go down easier that way," he said. "Who knows? Maybe we'll love it. We may have to travel around the country as infestations occur."

Living the Quran

Al-Imran (The Family of Imran) Chapter 3: Verse 191 (Partial) Appreciating Greatness "O our Lord, You did not create [all] this without purpose!" In human nature two qualities are not unknown to us: (1) the admiration of greatness, and (2) the acknowledgement of kindness. When you see a precision instrument or a latest appliance, or an exquisite picture, or an eloquent article, you do not stop talking of its beauty until your praise extends to its creator. The deep wisdom or skill of the individuals makes you bow your intellect to them involuntarily in respect and admiration. Likewise, when someone does you a favor, you always remember it, and your tongue expresses gratitude just as your heart is filled with praise and awe! A poet says: "Your favor has gained you three things from me: My hand, my tongue, and my hidden heart." The Messenger of God (peace be upon him) came to arouse these two qualities in the hearts of humans towards the One Who is most deserving of them. Do you not admire the greatness and salute its possessor? Do you not appreciate kindness and show gratitude to its doer? You surely admire the inventor of the aeroplane, and every time you see it streaking through the atmosphere your praise of his genius increases. So what do you think, therefore, of the One Who causes the thousands of stars to move in space without stopping or deviating? What do you think of Him Who created the mind of that inventor and deposited intelligence in the folds of his brain so that he could produce such things that arouse our admiration? Is not your Lord and the Lord of all things more deserving of your praise for His greatness and favors? Why are our hearts so hardened today? When you truly recognize His Mercy and Greatness through the magnificence of His creation and blessings to us, you would be ashamed to attack Him, or disobey Him, or neglect His guidelines for leading our worldly life, or to attribute anything unworthy to Him. You would surely exclaim, together with the people of knowledge and intelligence, the above verse: Rabbana, ma Khalaqta hazha Baatilan!

Understanding the Prophet's Life

Tie your Camel: Do your Part One day Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, noticed a Bedouin leaving his camel without tying it. He asked the Bedouin, "Why don't you tie down your camel?" The Bedouin answered, "I put my trust in Allah." The Prophet then said, "Tie your camel first, then put your trust in Allah" (Tirmidhi). Muslims must never become fatalistic. Although we know only Allah is in control and that He has decreed all things, we are each responsible for making the right choices and doing the right thing in all situations of our lives. We must take action. We must work to alleviate the hardships we, our families and our communities face. Ask yourself the following questions if you are worried about the state of the world: are you part of the peace movement? Is your Masjid part of the peace movement? Are you part of an interfaith group with an agenda of peace and justice? Are you working with a group fighting discrimination? If your answer is no, it is time that you sat down to plan your share of time and money in finding solutions to the problems you face. Turn each worry into a Dua and each Dua into an action plan. That will show your commitment to your request and will focus your energy in the right direction. Source: "25 Ways to Deal with Stress and Anxiety" - Abdul Malik Mujahid

Towards Better Writing

Purpose Writing is a many-faceted tool. We write to inform, persuade, inspire, or even threaten others. It is important to write well because writing can: make ideas and information permanent in a form easily accessible for reference and duplication; move others to act according to its message; free up the writer's time by enabling his ideas to be duplicated and distributed among wider audiences; guide and direct learners by communicating new or different ides in a precise manner; establish credibility and authority by introducing the writer to the reader; increase chances for success by precisely and permanently spelling out choices or courses of action; be a very effective means of dawa. As a tool for communication with others, writing must be sharpened through practice. Our choice of words and subject matter are very important in making our writing not only clear and precise but also understandable and interesting.

37 laman web skim cepat kaya dipantau

SOURCE: Utusan Malaysia Online

KUALA LUMPUR 17 Mei – Pusat Keselamatan Siber Malaysia mengenal pasti 37 laman web yang dipercayai menawarkan aktiviti pelaburan skim cepat kaya melalui Internet berdasarkan aduan yang diterima daripada orang ramai dalam tempoh dua tahun lalu.

Antara laman web yang menawarkan pelaburan mencurigakan ialah www.carigold.com, www.cakapgold.com, www.jutawan.org, www.jomklik.com, www. gurumalaysia.com, www. wangcyber.com, e-bazaar2u. com dan www.bicarajutawan. com.

Pemangku Pegawai Ketua Eksekutif pusat itu, Leftenan Kolonel (B) Husin Jazri berkata, orang ramai mudah tertarik dengan laman-laman web itu kerana ia kononnya menjanjikan pulangan lumayan dalam jangka masa singkat.

“Laman web skim pelaburan itu mendapat sambutan ekoran sikap para pelabur sendiri yang mudah terpedaya dengan tawaran dan janji manis yang tanpa disedari sebenarnya satu penipuan,” katanya kepada Utusan Malaysia di sini hari ini.

Ditanya bagaimana badan itu mengesan status sesebuah laman web itu sama ada ia mencurigakan atau tidak, Husin menjelaskan, pihaknya sentiasa membuat penyelidikan dan siasatan secara menyeluruh terhadap setiap aduan yang diterima.

Ujar beliau, skim cepat kaya menerusi Internet biasanya didalangi orang tempatan namun kebanyakan laman web yang menawarkan pelaburan itu menggunakan hos di luar negara.

“Orang yang ingin menipu sentiasa ada di mana-mana saja tidak kira ia dilakukan oleh rakyat tempatan atau orang asing,” ujarnya.

Menurutnya, Pusat Keselamatan Siber Malaysia bekerjasama dengan kerajaan dalam menguatkuasakan undang undang yang lebih berkesan.

Husin menambah, dalang skim cepat kaya Internet yang berjaya dikesan akan dihadapkan ke muka pengadilan.

Sehubungan itu, beliau menasihati orang ramai agar tidak terlalu tamak dan mudah terpedaya dengan skim-skim pelaburan di Internet.

“Jangan sekali-kali melabur dalam skim cepat kaya Internet. Orang ramai perlu bekerjasama dengan Pusat Keselamatan Siber Malaysia untuk membanteras kegiatan haram ini.

“Kalau betul-betul minat ingin melabur, orang ramai boleh mendapatkan pengesahan daripada pihak kami sama ada laman web berkenaan sah atau tidak sebelum membuat keputusan,” katanya.

Orang ramai boleh membuat laporan berhubung laman-laman web yang mencurigakan dengan menghubungi Bahagian MyCERT di Pusat Keselamatan Siber Malaysia melalui talian 03-8992 6969 atau mengirim e-mel kepada cyber999@cybersecurity.org.my.

[Pelajar MMU dakwa murtad]

Nauzubillah, moga kita dijauhkan. Harap kembali ke pangkal jalan. SOURCE: Harian Metro Online.. PUTRAJAYA: Kemungkinan khuatir dengan tindakan pihak tertentu, penuntut Universiti Multimedia Malaysia (MMU) yang mendakwa dirinya murtad dan kini mengamalkan fahaman atheis, menutup blognya daripada dilayari pengunjung. Jika sebelum ini, blog yang diberi nama `Awakening', itu boleh dilayari di alamat akidos.blogspot.com, tetapi bermula semalam, pengendali blog berkenaan hanya membenarkan pengunjung yang dijemput saja melayarinya. Sejak dua hari lalu, akhbar ini menyiarkan mengenai satu blog yang dikendali penuntut universiti berkenaan mendedah dirinya murtad dan berfahaman atheis kerana tidak mempercayai hukum dalam agama Islam. Penuntut kursus Kejuruteraan Meanikal di cawangan MMU Melaka itu, mengemuka beberapa alasan meninggalkan Islam. Antara alasan yang dikemukakan ialah tidak nampak faedah menjadi orang Islam, malu menjadi seorang Islam kerana ada orang Islam yang mengamal perkara mungkar seperti maksiat dan minum arak, berpendapat hudud itu tidak berperikemanusiaan dan jihad dilakukan semata-mata untuk berselindung di sebalik agama Islam. Dia juga mendakwa diajar membaca al-Quran oleh neneknya ketika kecil selepas Maghrib hingga Isyak tetapi terseksa dengan rutin itu. Berikutan pendedahan itu, dia menerima mesej ugutan bunuh dan mahu mencederakan dirinya. Beberapa pihak yang dihubungi mengulas berhubung pendedahan itu mahu siasatan dijalankan segera bagi memastikan sama ada tindakan penuntut terbabit benar-benar murtad. Mufti Perak, Datuk Seri Harussani Zakaria, berkata semua pihak sepatutnya mencari punca mengapa kes seperti itu boleh berlaku dan mengkaji punca dia bertindak demikian. Exco Pemuda Umno yang juga Pengerusi Biro Agama pergerakan itu, Datuk Shamsul Najmi Shamsudin, turut bimbang kelemahan pihak berkuasa agama yang lambat mengambil tindakan mencegah umat Islam daripada terpesong akidah mereka. Menurutnya, pihaknya sudah banyak kali mengemukakan laporan berhubung tindakan beberapa pihak yang berusaha memurtadkan umat Islam di negara ini tetapi tiada tindakan susulan dijalankan pihak berkuasa agama.

Living the Quran

Al-Anfal (The Spoils of War) Chapter 8: Verse 27 Betraying the Trust "O ye that believe! betray not the trust of Allah and the Messenger, nor misappropriate knowingly things entrusted to you." To abandon the duties God has assigned to the Muslim community is a betrayal of God and His Messenger. The basic issue in the Islamic faith is that of attributing Godhead purely and solely to God alone, following only what has been conveyed to us by His Messenger, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This basic issue also entails that God's Messenger is the only source to convey what God wants of human beings, and this means that they must follow all his orders and directives. As this includes both conviction and action, the Muslim community, which has declared its belief in God, is warned against abandoning this whole issue. To do so is equal to betraying God and His Messenger. Believers are also warned against betraying the trust they have accepted when they pledged their loyalty to God's Messenger and declared their acceptance of islam. Islam means submission to God. This is not merely a verbal statement, but a complete code of living that must be implemented, even though such implementation faces numerous obstacles and difficulties. It is a code that aims to build human life on the basis of the declaration that there is no deity other than God. The usurpers who tyrannize people and claim sovereignty for themselves must be taken to task. Right and justice must be maintained for all people. Human life must be built entirely on the basis of the divine constitution. All these are aspects of the trust God has placed in the Muslim community. Those who do not fulfil their trust actually betray their pledges to God and His Messenger. Source: "In The Shade of The Quran" - Sayyid Qutb, pp. 113,114

Understanding the Prophet's Life

Stimulating the Intelligence Throughout his mission the Prophet, peace be upon him, sought his Companion's advice, encouraging them to express their opinions and paying them careful attention. Furthermore, the Prophet had evolved a genuine teaching method through which he allowed the Muslims to develop their critical faculties, express their talents, and mature in his presence. He would often ask questions on various subjects and give the answers only after his Companions had thought by themselves and expressed different conjectures. Sometimes, more subtly, he would utter a judgment in a paradoxical form, thereby prompting his listeners to consider the matter more deeply. For example, he once said: "A strong man is not a man who overcomes his enemy!" The Companions mulled this over among themselves, then asked him: "Then who is a strong man?" The Prophet surprised his audience and led them to a deeper understanding of the question with his answer: "A strong man is a man who controls himself when he is angry!" He would sometimes speak figuratively: "Wealth does not lie in the riches you possess!" After the Companions pondered this, Muhammad would elaborate: "True wealth is the wealth of the soul." On occasion the Prophet's statement appeared to contradict common sense or ethics: "Help your brother, whether he is just or unjust!" The Companions could not but wonder about the nature of the help they were to give an unjust brother: how could that be? The Prophet, inverting the perspective, would add: "Prevent him [the unjust brother] from acting unjustly, such is the way for you to help him!" Both by asking questions and by formulating paradoxical or seemingly contradictory statements, the Prophet stimulated his Companions' critical sense and their ability to go beyond mere blind obedience or mechanical mind-destroying imitation. This method developed the intellectual capacities necessary for consultations to be effective. By stimulating their intelligence and giving them opportunities to speak, he exercised a type of leadership that made it possible for his Companions to learn to assert themselves and take initiative.

Blindspot!

Miserliness and Meanness of the Heart Free yourself from miserliness and meanness of the heart. The more humble and polite you are, the more strongly will you believe that everything belongs to Allah and that whatever you give now shall be returned in the form of a much greater reward. The more you believe that if you were to stop charity it would come to haunt you, the easier will it be for you to be magnanimous. The more your heart is filled with the Greatness of Allah, the more generous your heart will become. The greater your ability to negate ego, status, arrogance, vanity, wealth, and the more you feel that you have not discharged your responsibilities to the full - the happier you will become. Give away your wealth today, give it away readily, sacrifice your self-esteem, cleanse yourself of the love of this world and Allah will expand your heart. He shall make you so benevolent that you will have made yourself deserving of the Paradise whose expanse will embrace the heavens and the earth.

Living the Quran

Al-Mumtahana (The Tested Woman) Chapter 60: Verse 8 Mutual Respect "Allah forbids you not, with regard to those who fight you not for (your) Faith nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them: for Allah loveth those who are just." Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, had always retained very strong ties with the members of different clans and with his kin who had not accepted Islam. His uncle Abu Talib, who he loved so much and whom he accompanied until he breathed his last, was one such example. Another uncle, Abbas, remained by the Prophet's side even though he had not yet converted. Muhammad's trust in him was tremendous, and he did not hesitate to confide in him or have him take part in private meetings involving the future of the community. His remaining a polytheist never prevented the Prophet from showing him the greatest respect and deepest confidence in situations where his very life was at risk. It was a similar attitude of trust that had made it possible for Muslims to emigrate to Abyssinia, under protection of a king whom the Prophet trusted even though he was not a Muslim. This attitude is to be found throughout the Prophet's life: he established his relationships in the name of trust and the respect of principles, and not exclusively on the basis of similar religious affiliations. His Companions had understood it as well, and they did not hesitate to develop solid ties with non-Muslims in the name of kinship or friendship, on the basis of mutual respect and trust, even in perilous situations. Thus, Um Salamah, who had been separated from her husband, found herself alone with her son on her way to Medina. Uthman ibn Talhah, who was not a Muslim, offered to escort and protect her until she reached the place where her husband was. Um Salamah was often to tell this story, always praising Uthman ibn Talhah's noble character. Examples of this nature abound, and neither the Prophet nor the other Muslims ever restricted their social and human relations to their co-religionists. Later, the Quran was to establish the rightfulness and the principle of such relationships formed on the basis of mutual respect. Source: "In The Footsteps of the Prophet" - Tariq Ramadan, pp. 76,77

Understanding the Prophet's Life

Daughters in Islam If it was not for the commands of Allah, stated in the Quran, and the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), women would not have been given the preference over men. Allah's Prophet was reported as saying: “Be fair and just in terms of the gifts you offer your children. If I was to give preference to any (gender over the other) I would have preferred females over males (in terms of gifts).” [Bayhaqi] Moreover, Allah's Prophet concentrated throughout his teachings on giving more care and attention to females in general over the male. Females must be treated with kindness, respect, honor, dignity, integrity and their needs must be looked after. Allah's Prophet said: “He whosoever has three daughters, or three sisters, or two daughters or two sisters, and is very kind to them, demonstrating nice company to them and fears Allah in their treatment, will enter Paradise (as a result of his good actions to these females).” [Abu Dawood & Tirmidhi] Islamic laws and teachings mandate that parents raise their children in the best manners and offer them a sound, beneficial and healthy education. Ibn Omar (may Allah be pleased with him), reported Allah's Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as saying: “The most sinful of you are those who neglect those whom he is responsible to take care of.” [Abu Dawood & Nasaiee] Source: "Women In the Shade of Islam" - Abdulrahman Al-Sheha, pp. 33, 34

Vocabulary of the Quran

Shafa'at Root word Shafa'a: To make even that which was odd, make double, pair, make a thing to be one of the pair, adjoin a thing to its like, provide a thing which was alone with another, protect, mediate, intercede, be an intercessor. Shaf'un: Pair, Double. Shafa'at: The word has the significance of likeness and similarity, also it means interceding or praying for a person that he may be shown favour. As he is connected with intercessor, it also implies that the petitioner or the intercessor is a person of higher position than the one for whom he pleads and also has deep connection with the person with whom he intercedes. The significance of Shafa'at is that it is an institution of a way which another imitates so that the latter joins himself to his model. Thus Shafa'at has twofold significance, firstly it enables a person to walk in the ways of righteousness by imitating a model and secondly it affords him a shelter from the evil consequences of certain weaknesses which he is unable to overcome by himself and requires the prayer and support of an innocent person. The person in whose favour Shafa'at is sought must generally be a good person who has made an honest effort to win the pleasure of God (21:28), only he has fallen into sin, in a moment of weakness. Shafa'at can only be made with God's express permission (2:255; 10:3). It is another form of repentance signifying reforming a broken connection or tightening up a loose one. So whereas the door of repentance becomes closed with death the door of Shafa'at remains open. Moreover Shafa'at is a means of the manifestation of God's mercy and He is not a judge or magistrate but Master. There is nothing to stop Him from extending His mercy to whomsoever He pleases. The root with its different forms has been used in the Quran about 31 times. Compiled From: "Dictionary of the Holy Quran" - Abdul Mannan Omar, pp. 293, 295
