"I am not alone"
Saturday, April 28, 2007
When Naomi (the parachutist) says "eu nao estou so", Mikhail tells the others that she has said "Thank you". The actual Portuguese translation is "I am not alone".
Any thoughts on this?

Biblical Names
Saturday, April 14, 2007
The oft-mentioned Jacob isn't the only person on "Lost" with a name borrowed from the Old Testament. Here's a list of people I can think of that have a "Biblical" name:
1. Benjamin Linus - Benjamin is the youngest son of Jacob in the Bible
2. Aaron Littleton (Claire's baby) - Aaron is the brother of Moses
3. Jack/Christian Shepherd - Jacob is a shepherd in the bible, (among other prominent characters). Also, Christian could be a reference to Christianity.
4. Isaac of Uluru (healer from flashback in season 2)- Isaac is the son of Abraham and the father of Jacob.
5. Dave (Hurley's imaginary friend) - King David
6. "Adam and Eve" (skeletal remains found in season that are given this nickname) - Adam and Eve are the first man and woman created by God in the Bible.
7. Rachel Burke (Juliet's sister) - Rachel is Jacob's wife.
8. Rachel Blake (daughter of Alvar Hanso, protagonist of The Lost Experience) - idem.
With this in mind, maybe the true identity of Jacob can be revealed through a Biblical clue:
1) Jacob is Isaac of Uluru or his son.
2) Jacob is Rachel Burke's husband.
3) Jacob is Christian Shepherd.
4) Jacob is Ben's father.
Moreover...
1) In the Bible, Jacob's wife Rachel, died while giving birth to Benjamin. — Women who have become pregnant on the island have died.

Russian Translations
Thursday, March 08, 2007
The translations are now available. Here's the Klugh-Mikhail conversation:
Klugh: Mikhail. Mikhail! You know what to do.
Mikhail: We still have another way [out].
Klugh: We cannot risk. You know the conditions.
Mikhail: There is another way.
Klugh: They captured us. We will not give (or let, or betray) [unintelligible].
Klugh: You know what to do. It is an order.
Mikhail: We still have another way!
Klugh (in English): Just do it, Mikhail.
Mikhail: Forgive me. (shoots) (source)

[edit]
Red Handwritten Note #1: My name is also Andrey.
Red Handwritten Note #2: I have forgotten so much about Afghanistan.
BTW, those asterisks direct here:
*Mujahideen is a term referring to Muslim jihadists (fighters). Afghani mujahideen are among the most well-known.
**Madrasah is a Muslim term for school.
***ISI is an acronym for the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence.
