Photo of the Week: Because No One Should Read Too Much on Fridays

Friday brings the conclusion of Yemen Week for the blog as well as the long awaited Photo of the Week.

As the coastal waters near Yemen continue to witness acts of Somali piracy, international forces continue their efforts to police the Gulf and surrounding waters, an area roughly four times the size of Texas. The above photo features a member of the U.S. Coast Guard gathering navigational information from Yemini fishermen to assist in U.S. anti-piracy efforts. A cooperative relationship with local populations, especially the fishermen who navigate the waters off Yemen’s coastline, could prove to be an important asset in overall U.S. goals in the region, a fact that other nations patrolling the Gulf of Aden may have recently learned the hard way.

You are tempted to stand up and shout, “Yes, his center brand is Ray, but he goes by William, dammit! Not Billy Ray! And he’s a great man!” But you realize that it will do no decent for they are louts and malcontents and petty peoples without any respect for those that desire big. Oh, how you will possess the final laugh on them, when your guy clears that last specialized hurdle and solves the tough difficulty of turning kudzu in to the inexpensive ethanol-based fuel. “Think of it, honey,” he says for you so often, ” two birds with 1 stone! Kudzu and OPEC gone forever!”You have jimmy choo sandals saleYves Saint Laurent Pumpschristian louboutin Lady Clou 150mmchristian louboutin Lady Clou 150mm redchristian Louboutin lady clou beigeTory Burch FlatsTory Burch Flip FlopsTory Burch HeelsTory Burch PumpsTory Burch Sandalslanvin ballet flatsJimmy Choo Patent Leather Wedges Sandals BrownYves Saint Laurent Slingbackspreviously promised your self that on that morning you will march in to the workplace and quit from the most spectacular, bridge-burning..no, no… BRIDGE-EXPLODING method possible.
