it wasn't her. Most likely she was of the Portugese/Brazilian rescue team. In the last episode of season two when the hatch blew they showed a team of researchers speaking a different laguage that had noticed the electromagnetic spike the hatch explosion created, and then they called Penny(Desmonds lady). Someone had recognised the language they spoke as Brazillian Portugese. The verison of Catch 22 they found in the book bag was in Portugese and her ethnic appearance could easily be of that race. The photo in the book was a color copy, most likely for her to use as a way to identify Desmond.

In 3x17, "Catch-22", we see Desmond in a monastery. When he goes to visit the head monk, there is a number of religious items around his office. On the wall hangs a familiar looking crucifix. Turns out, this is the same crucifix seen in Yemi's church in episode 3x05. Thanks to darkufo for the heads up on this.

 

This is obviously just a reused prop, but I'm sure we could get a few good theories going on this if we had to.

In 3x17, "Catch-22", Desmond has joined a monastery where they bottle wine under the label Moriah Vineyards. As Desmond mentions, Moriah is the mountain where Abraham was tested and asked to sacrifice Isaac. Although the bottle indicates it is grown in Eddington, Scotland, a quick search on google maps and google earth returns no results for Eddington, Scotland other than an Eddington Dr.

In 3x17, "Catch-22", Desmond is "fired" from a a monastery. When he goes to turn in his belongings, we get a glimpse of a picture on his superior's desk. The desk shows the elder Monk with none-other than the mysterious clock-lady from 3x08 who was aware of Desmond's time travel trip. Very interesting.

In 3x17, "Catch-22", Desmond and crew find a backpack apparently dropped from the parachutist who bailed from the sputtering helicopter. Besides the Catch-22 book with the Des and Penny photo, they also find some Beef Stew rations, a Nutra Fruit bar, a satellite phone (which, if you look closely, is getting pretty good reception before it dies), a canteen and of course, the doll that fell out.

In 3x17, "Catch-22", Desmond and crew find a backpack apparently dropped from the parachutist who bailed from the sputtering helicopter. Included is a book titled ARDIL-22. This is the Portuguese version of Catch-22, a book by Joseph Heller. It's important to note that the two men in the listening station were speaking Portuguese.

 

From the publisher: Catch-22 is set in the closing months of World War II, in an American bomber squadron on a small island off Italy. Its hero is a bombardier named Yossarian, who is frantic and furious because thousands of people he hasn't even met keep trying to kill him. (He has decided to live forever even if he has to die in the attempt.)

something i found

 

 

a numbers game with the numbers and the word dharma

 

out of the “numbers” you can speel dharma. how? with a bit of work each letter is symbolized in progression by the number of steps or integers involved. each etter in succeession needs another step or number involved. the numbers, 4-8-15-16-23-48 four is d if you match it up. 1 step for step one the first letter. 8 is h, still one step but the intger is doubled signifing the patterning formula. now if you minus 15 from 16 you get one which would be a. it tooke three numbers to get the one signifing step three. 16 plus the 2 in 23 equal 18 which is r the three sumbers needed in the equation and there sum amounts to four the forth step. now if you minus the 2 from the 3 in 23 you get one and if you add the 4 and the 8 in 48 you get 12 add these up and you get 13 or m…one addittion and one subtraction adn both of thier sums is four plus the sums new total equals five steps, now for the sixth. if you again take 2 from 3 in 23 you get one this time divide the 4 from the 8 in 48 you get 2 subtract the sums and you get 1 for the final a. the two numbers in both the minus and division are four plus their sums and their sum’s new sum equal seven take out any repeating numbers (one repeats twice) and you get six for the sixth step. i knnow this all sounds convouluted and extracted but to understand dharma is the same it is a learning process that unfold in steps and through higher understanding. whether or not this ties in the show or not i don’t know, just thought it interesting
