The first blast came when a dhow was sighted near the Khawr al-Amaya oil terminal, the Bahrain-based U.S. 5th Fleet said. When an interception team tried to board, the dhow exploded, flipping the U.S. Navy craft. About 20 minutes later, two more dhows were spotted near the al-Basra oil terminal. They, too, exploded when security teams approached, but there were no casualties among the security teams, the 5th Fleet said. Halawi said the second dhows were trying to pull close to two tankers at the al-Basra terminal, also known as ABOT.

OK We are all friends here, so flame me or correct me if you must. But I maintain my "this has become a PC war" stance. WHY WERE THESE BOATS APPROACHED WHEN THEY FAILED TO STOP!! ESPECIALLY WHEN THE 1ST ONE BLEW UP???!!!!
WHY DID THEY NOT SHOOT THEM OUT OF THE WATER!!!

Whoever the hell is in charge now has the blood of these two sailors on their hands as much as the terrorists. I am getting totally fed up with PC crap!!!!!!!!!

Dear Ricky,

What a wonderful thought to live with, thank you.

Yes, I may have enough, this year it looks like I will have a cooler for the summer, it is ready to go, thanks to Brother.... Last summer I didn't have a cooler and I think that some of my oils turned a little.

I had intended to write to you and encourage you to push on with your dreams, don't put them aside for any reason.

I saved too many of mine "until I retired", wish I hadn't as they won't get done in this life.

Your dream is a lovely one and not only the beauty of the plants, but the wonderful healing that you will be sharing with the world.

I know that some think that I am nuts, with my Lavender cures all, but thanks to God, it does seem to cure most of man's ills.

Are you aware of the Lavender groups at Yahoo? There is one that deals with growing and a couple with cooking recipes.

As a Freeper, i have most of my Yahoo groups on no mail, but may still be signed in to them, if you need the address.

Good luck and God Bless you and your efforts,

Ruth
