Americans: Sheep to the Constitutional Slaughter?
An Interview with Judge Andrew Napolitano
Judge Andrew Napolitano is one of American media's most
tenacious defenders of Americans' rights. His official title at Fox
News, where he appears regularly on Fox and Friends and
The Big Story, is "Senior Judicial Analyst." But at the
often Bush-besotted network, the decidedly skeptical Napolitano
thinks of himself more as "House Civil Libertarian."
He's the youngest life-tenured Superior Court judge in New Jersey history, and a former teacher of constitutional law at Seton Hall Law School. He also writes books alerting Americans to how their own government threatens their liberties, including The Constitution in Exile and Constitutional Chaos: What Happens When the Government Breaks Its Own Laws. Nick Gillespie interviewed Napolitano for our March 2005 issue.
Napolitano's latest book is the pugnaciously and provocatively titled A Nation of Sheep. The book is certainly sharply critical of the Bush administration for its assaults on our freedom and privacy. But Napolitano also provides valuable historical context, showing there's little new under the sun when it comes to the tendency of power to expand, even in a nation explicitly built to keep government powers as tiny oceans in a sea of individual rights.
He tells of Daniel Ellsberg's brave stance against government wartime secrecy during Vietnam, former Ohio Congressman Clement Vallandigham's standing up to Abraham Lincoln (and subsequent arrest and banishment after a military commission trial for doing so), and Vermont Congressman Matthew Lyon's arrest for insulting President John Adams.
The book is wide-ranging in history and subject matter, containing entertaining (and often blood-curdling) takes on potential threats from ever-present surveillance cameras, the Transportation Security Administration, the government's insistence that it can grab any private information a company may have collected about you, press pusillanimity, and our government's yen for torture. It hits the pleasing tone of all-American barn-burning dudgeon that animated the Americans who, enraged with Lincoln's treatment of Vallandigham, as Napolitano writes, "rioted and burned the local Republican building, cut down telegraph lines, and destroyed a bridge."
I spoke to Judge Napolitano by phone on November 12, touching on some of the matters that most alarm him these days about America, a nation that has in his estimation become alarmingly close to a nation of sheep.
reason: Your book contains over 200 pages of alarming stuff (except for the part in the back where, for your readers convenience, you reprint the Declaration of Independence and Constitution), but let's touch on some specific ills affecting the health of constitutional liberties in America. What, for example, is the "special needs exception" to the 4th Amendment that 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Chester Straub invoked, as you discuss in chapter 2?
Judge Andrew Napolitano: Of course, there is no "special needs exception," not in case law, not in the Constitution. But it's an argument that big government makes whenever it feels constrained by the document that created it, namely the Constitution.
The government has dispatched its lawyers into federal court to make this so-called "special needs" argument. It says to the court—it's the sort of pedestrian argument you and I hear every day—"Oh, the Constitution was written 230 years ago. These guys couldn't have anticipated planes into buildings or wiretaps. They were not the subject of ethnic and religious hatred like we receive from Islamo-fascism today." So the "special needs" of public safety require us to find in the Constitution—and they never admit they are going around the Constitution—to find authority to do a, b, c, and d, which might be, oh, wiretap without a warrant, monitor the keystrokes on citizens' computers, open mail, and use self-written search warrants.
And some judges regrettably have accepted this argument. [Former Attorney General Alberto] Gonzales did not make it up. Government's been arguing this for years, though the phrase "special needs" is not a term of art in law; it's just a handle used by federal prosecutors when they do not want to uphold their oath of office to uphold the Constitution.
reason: The Patriot Act seems to be a special bete noire of yours. What's the problem with it?
Napolitano: The Patriot Act's two most principle constitutional errors are an assault on the Fourth Amendment, and on the First. It permits federal agents to write their own search warrants [under the name "national security letters"] with no judge having examined evidence and agreed that it's likely that the person or thing the government wants to search will reveal evidence of a crime.
Remember that the British government permitted its soldiers to execute self-written search warrants. They called them "writs of assistance," and they were one of the last straws that caused American colonist to rebel. It's bitterly ironic that 230 years later a popularly elected government would authorize its own agents to do the same thing that when a monarchy did it, we fought a war of rebellion in reaction—which we won!
Not only that, but the Patriot Act makes it a felony for the recipient of a self-written search warrant to reveal it to anyone. The Patriot Act allows [agents] to serve self-written search warrants on financial institutions, and the Intelligence Authorization Act of 2004 in Orwellian language defines that to include in addition to banks, also delis, bodegas, restaurants, hotels, doctors' offices, lawyers' offices, telecoms, HMOs, hospitals, casinos, jewelry dealers, automobile dealers, boat dealers, and that great financial institution to which we all would repose our fortunes, the post office.
So FBI agents can write their own search warrant with just the permission of their superior, no judge at all, nobody at the main Department of Justice, and serve it essentially on any entity they want, and if they serve this search warrant on your doctor, lawyer, grocer, or mailman, and that doctor, lawyer, grocer, or mailman tells you they received it, then that doctor, lawyer, grocer, or mailman, can be prosecuted for a felony, face five years in jail. What part of the First Amendment's "Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech" do they not understand?

Napolitano had always annoyed me whenever I saw him on Fox. That was until I heard his talk given at the von Mises Institute. I wonder why he would still be or was ever associated with Fox, unless he has some influence on them from going outright wacky(ier).
He has very nice hair.
With all due respect to Judge Napolitano and all the good respectable libertarians working there, but I can't help but share this website with everyone: Fox News Porn.com ("porn" as in "porn"). :-)
Radley Balko gets printed in FoxNews rather regularly. Personally, if the libertarian POV is going to be out there, I would rather it be on a channel that is watched vs. CSPAN's Book TV. Yes, I am hoping for freedom by osmosis. -
I agree, but just thought the website funny and am very glad to see a good man like Judge Napolitano be there. His talk on the Patriot Act at the von Mises Institute was amazing, but we don't get to hear much of the talk's content on Faux News. -
I think we know who Ron Paul's first Supreme Court nominee will be....
Judge Napolitano should be the Libertarian candidate for President. Maybe an articulate judge can wake people up to the dangers of creeping fascism in America? I'm afraid the usual lineup of LP candidates for the nomination have little to no credibility (shall we say gravitas?)with any non-yellow dog voters.
Judge Napolitano is a patriot and Ron Paul is a juggernaut...
http://truthalert.net/Republican%20Presidential%20Candidate%20Rankings.htm -
if the libertarian POV is going to be out there, I would rather it be on a channel that is watched vs. CSPAN's Book TV
It's on both. Everybody wins! And Book TV beats standard weekend programming hands down (for thinking people anyway). -
Napolitano: How many people has the DOJ convicted in a jury trial for terrorism based on evidence obtained from the Patriot Act? Zero. They've gotten people to plead guilty, to fold, and convicted many on drug trafficking, white slavery, prostitution, gambling, and political corruption, but haven't gotten a single [terror] case where they presented evidence in a public court before a judge and jury and the jury found a defendant guilty under evidence obtained under Patriot Act.
So what? Since when has it been necessary for a law to actually accomplish its published purpose?
[bleh] -
The good judge has a heart, and it's in the right place. But he tends to say things--and even worse, write things--without checking the facts first.
Take a gander at this takedown, which unfortunately is factually accurate: http://www.nationalreview.com/mccarthy/mccarthy200502230740.asp
It's crucial for those on our side to get the facts straight, because we're fighting uphill against stronger forces. That's why Radley is a far better spokesman, even though he doesn't get as much exposure. -
It's on both. Everybody wins! And Book TV beats standard weekend programming hands down (for thinking people anyway).
Seconded. Brian Lamb is one of my few heroes. -
Without reading both Napolitano's op-ed and the NRO "take-down" I have already dismissed the latter. Andrew McCarthy uses 2300 words to address three points in Napolitano's op-ed. The last of which is, shall we say, farcical.
Second, lawyers involved in a federal case do not, under the First Amendment, have an unqualified right, let alone an "absolute" right, to advocate for the client in the media or to opine generally about "a matter of public interest." Even when a criminal prosecution is ongoing, the U.S. Supreme Court has, for many, many years, held that participants in the litigation may be tightly regulated in what they may disclose.
Amendment I
Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press
I don't care what hoops McCarthy or the SCOTUS goes through, you can't reconcile the two, particularly as the Blind Sheik's actions did not affect "national security". -
What about the fact that if you are accused of being a terrorist, the FBI can listen in on conversations you have wiyh your lawyer. Doesn't that mean that you are not actually innocent until proven guilty?
Brian Lamb is one of my few heroes.
Copy that. Unfiltered, unedited, no talking heads to tell you what to think. -
Somebody has already suggested Judge Napolitano as a perfect VP candidate for the Ron Paul ticket, but I thought I'd mention it again.
I can't argue with that. Hizzoner is a good egg. -
McCarthy has a rep for using 1,000 words when 300 will do. And I wonder if he considers the Supreme Court's opinions in Griswold, Roe, Casey, et al. to be the final word on abortion?
This gets back to a fundamental point: I don't give a flying rat's a$$ what "the will of the people," the Constitution, or the Supreme Court says on a particular matter. The question is and remains what's the moral and ethical position. An appeal to authority is not sufficient to convince me or any rational-thinking person. -
What about the fact that if you are accused of being a terrorist, the FBI can listen in on conversations you have wiyh your lawyer. Doesn't that mean that you are not actually innocent until proven guilty?
Of course. The government would never prosecute people as terrorists who weren't.
BTW, the former prosecutor was acquitted. -
Fox News needs more people like Judge Napolitano, not fewer. The same could probably be said for every other news channel.
Sorry, Kwix, but judges sometimes impose "gag orders" on attorneys who appear before them to assure a fair trial, and such restraints have long been upheld (depending on the circumstances), even by aggressively civil libertarian judges. The First Amendment protection for speech is arguably the most important in the Constitution and should be darn near absolute, but that doesn't mean you can resolve First Amemndment questions simply by quoting the text, particularly where other rights conflict. (No right to falsely shout "fire" in a crowded theater, etc.)
As for Lynne Stewart, she announced to the press that her imprisoned, convicted terrorist client favored an end to the "cease fire" that his Egyptian terrorist group had declared. This was the same group that stabbed and shot 57 tourists to death in Luxor. That can reasonably be interpreted as passing along an instruction to commit murder, especially where her announcement did not further any legitimate court procedures in her alleged role as criminal defense lawyer. And by the way, she jeopardized the rights of other criminal defendants because she learned her client's views only after signing an agreement not to disseminate them, and by breaking her agreement gave the government a great excuse in future cases to try to deny counsel to terrror suspects. I think some of the charges against her were overkill, but Lynne Stewart is a convicted liar, a threat to both public safety and civil liberties, and a disgrace.
But back to Judge Napolitano. The McCarthy article I linked correctly points out some very basic factual errors that the judge made in trying to defend Stewart in a crafted op-ed article. Like I said, the judge's heart was in the right place, but this kind of sloppiness doesn't help the cause, and Lynne Stewart makes a very, very poor poster child for civil liberties. -
Hopefully when martial law is declared the men and women of our military will refuse to enforce it. Does anyone know were I can find this writing or poem that goes something like "were will they get the boots to trample us down but from among us...etc"?
Sorry, Kwix, but judges sometimes impose "gag orders" on attorneys who appear before them to assure a fair trial, and such restraints have long been upheld (depending on the circumstances), even by aggressively civil libertarian judges.
Fair enough. But it's a far cry from saying that judges can slap a well-deserved muzzle on attorneys attempting to try their cases in the media, and saying that the Constitution permits criminal penalties for disclosure to the subject of a subpoena. In fact, the Patriot Act "national security letters" do not invoke the judicial process at all, since they take place entirely within the executive branch. That shit's crazy. -
ChrisO, I completely agree.
ChrisO, that's the way freedom is lost. In drabs and dribbles, litte stuff here, minor shit there, and before you know it, you're a felon if the government wants to declare you one.
Second, lawyers involved in a federal case do not, under the First Amendment, have an unqualified right, let alone an "absolute" right, to advocate for the client in the media
This much I know is true. Its a violation of legal ethics inasmuch as it may improperly influence the trial.
or to opine generally about "a matter of public interest."
Not sure where this comes from, unless its from case-specific gag orders. Depending on the breadth of the gag order, though, I would think it could be legit or not. -
I am sorry but if you are willing to stand up and be counted with the people at FoxNews (the 'Pravda' of our day) then you aren't going to get a lot of respect from me. The fact that he jokes around with bullies like O'Reily and morons like Hannity who have done unestimable cultural damage blackens his name in my book.
I still wonder when they will expand the definition of "terrorist" to include gang members.
See. Fox news IS fair and balanced.
Question for the Fox haters:
Has any broadcaster other than Fox given a hardcore civil libertarian like Napolitano so much airtime? -
RC Dean,
Good point and the answer is no.
Apparently folks like James would rather have silence if the alternative is to have the hated Fox news give lots of broadcast time to a strong defender of civil liberties.
Me, I don't care who broadcasts a strong defender of civil liberties just as long as it gets broadcast. -
For those of you who have attempted to use the argument that anything that emanates from Fox News must be wrong simply by virtue that it was, at one time, seen on Fox news. You are using a rhetorical stunt called guilt by association, or simply you are "poisoning the well".
Your methods are simply a sad example of a how feeble mindedness combined with arrogance creates that natural propaganda machine that you clearly view yourself as heroically railing against.
But before you crucify yourself on your self indulgent cross of sysiphusian self congratulation, may I point out that while Fox News may be an outlet for poorly researched blue collar mental masturbation, you do yourself no favors by attempting to refute their position using the same type of convoluted reasoning that barely befits some third rate backwater banana republic's efforts to suppress pathetic shanty-town uprising with artillery strikes and napalm.
If you attempting to assume the mantle of "reasoned interlocutor" I suggest you make at least some effort to study your old college textbooks on logic. -
"""I still wonder when they will expand the definition of "terrorist" to include gang members.""""
You're kidding, right? They are way ahead of you.
I think it's a safe bet that they will use anti-terror laws for anything they can put the word terror behind such as Narco-terror and environmental-terror. Criminal-terror is right around the corner. It's a way for the feds to expand their jursidiction. -
I don't believe that speech was from the Mises Institute, but the Future of Freedom Foundation.
Video is up on youtube, part one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8QwTKKSvR8&feature=related -
I agree, but OTOH the Earth Liberation Front types seem pretty terroristical-flavored, don't they? And what about those Westboro "Baptist" goons? The Klan did a pretty good job of terrorizing people back when it had membership worth an inbred shit, too...
Again, you have good points - the Feds don't need to be going apeshit with the redefining of terrorism. But that doesn't mean there are no terrorists at all. -
"""But that doesn't mean there are no terrorists at all."""
Who's making that claim? -
small government (medicare drug benefit - biggest increase in government entitlement in 50 years)Federalism (no child left behind), skepticism about government power (Patriot act) - there are no longer any principals upon which the Republican party is based. President Bush has done more damage to republicans than Nixon.
Bush didn't do it without the help of other republicans. I say the republicans have done more damage to themselves today than when Nixon was in office.
Judge Nap is nothing short of heroic, in my eyes. The Patriot Act, and how to go about repealing it, should be the primary topic of discussion at every dinner table in America. Instead, the hot topic is American Idol. Good job, Mr. and Mrs. America. Thanks for nothing.
I'm so glad I can finally hear opinions critical of the Patriot Act, et al without having to hear it juxtaposed with someone like Dennis Kucinich calling for gun control and socialized medicine. Maybe there is hope for this country after all.
By the way. President Paul shouldn't wait for an opening on the Supreme Court to put Judge Napolitano to work restoring freedom. He'd make a great Attorney General. -
Actions speak louder than words, he plays his part exceptionally well and profitably.
Anyway, he is 100% correct with sheep factor, great majority of humanoids prefer to be or go trough life pretending to be one of them.
Participation or lack of it in "electing" conservative-tyrant or liberal-tyrant are proof of that.
Still it is sad to see even the illusion of "freedom and democracy" (it was far better than previous Evil Empire) destroyed and transformed from "the city on a shining hill" into new Evil Empire.
Humanoids capacity and desire for destruction is far greater than their capacity to live and enjoy laws of nature Judge talks about as historical facts confirm. -
Paul, maybe I'm wrong, but it doesn't look like anyone on this thread is committing any genetic fallacy. No one's reasoning from "Someone on Fox News said p" to "p is false". Instead, everyone's saying it's a shame that this guy saying true and important things is showing up only (or mainly) on Fox News.
The judge was doing quite well until he wandered off into superstitious la-la land with "rights come from God."
Rights come from social norms. Social norms are encoded by societies in various ways; ours by the constitution. The constitution can be changed via amendment; this removes ALL legitimacy from the "special needs" argument. If it actually *needs* to be changed, there is a mechanism in place to do that. Going around it is illegal. Either the government stays in line with the constituting authority - which IS the constitution - or it is operating in such a manner as to do whatever it wants to do without regard to any force outside itself, which makes it a dictatorship. No court has the authority to go "around" or give permission to go around the constitution, because there is no basis *whatsoever* for any such authority. The government argues that it can ask itself - and make no mistake, the judiciary, congress and the executive are a unified organism - for permission to do this or that, and if it gets it, it can do it. That argument is entirely specious.
The constitution is a document from the people that specifies what in fact the government may do. When that document is ignored, the government no longer serves the people, it serves its own interests, which as we have seen and to our great regret, are not collinear with those of he people.
Our population is so badly educated with regard to what makes our government legitimate, so inculcated with cultural disease encoded as "my country, right or wrong", "for the children", "we can't have that", "for your own safety", all of which is topped with a generous helping of blatant superstition, that it has little chance to even understand these issues, much less react against them.
The article mentions Ron Paul as if he could get something concrete accomplished if elected. He could do a few (important) things in foreign policy, and that's about where it ends. But what he *could* do (domestically speaking) is from that bully pulpit, he could educate our citizens. Read the constitution to them from the fireside. Describe what has happened; why it is wrong. At which point, I fully expect someone from another part of the government to kill the man.
In the meantime, the great social contracts to take care of our citizens as they get old, the chance to treat the health of our citizens as if it was a matter of as great a consequence as education and roads... these things will suffer greatly at the hands of Paul if indeed he is able to convince enough congresspeople and senators to destroy them. There is no free lunch. As critical as the man might be to our constitutional health, he's as dangerous as a pit viper to our actual health.
So fellow citizens, don't go getting all optimistic. We face a conundrum of massive and highly recalcitrant proportions. Personally, I see little hope for any solution, much less an easy one. -
Dennis Kucinich DID read the Patriot Act and voted against it. Others should have refused to vote unless and until they were given time to read it.
How did Ron Paul vote on The Patriot Act? Senator Russ Feingold voted against the Patriot Act as well, so there are some vigilant elected representatives.
Impeachment is the short cut to the solution. Get Busholini and Darth Cheney the hell out of there before they declare Martial law and cancel the next elections.
Call it a pre-emptive strike for Democracy. -
A good definition of an OXYMORON is when you say someone works for Fox News and they are against Bush Policies in the same sentenc.
Bob -
Funny but as much as Napolitano whines about the Patriot act you don't hear boo from him regarding how the IRS has been able to do all these same sorts of actions almost since its inception...
Napolitano is either a boob or just another hypocrite who fed to long at the taxpayer financed trough... -
"Impeachment is the short cut to the solution. Get Busholini and Darth Cheney the hell out of there before they declare Martial law and cancel the next elections."
Good start, but we need to begin impeachment proceedings the day our next President is elected... -
Napolitano would make an excellent running mate for Ron Paul, or perhaps the Attorney General.
Now, concerning the comment by Juandos...I think you need to read more of the Judges writings before accosting the Napolitano...he addresses many issues, even those about the taxation and the IRS. -
"In the meantime, the great social contracts to take care of our citizens as they get old, the chance to treat the health of our citizens as if it was a matter of as great a consequence as education and roads... these things will suffer greatly at the hands of Paul if indeed he is able to convince enough congresspeople and senators to destroy them. There is no free lunch. As critical as the man might be to our constitutional health, he's as dangerous as a pit viper to our actual health."
There is no social contract like this. Unless by social contract you mean a contract which you made up. As far as roads and education, the government does a terrible job with both.
Roads are not here to help the citizenry, as you put it. There are far too many roads for that. Almost all private property is surounded by roads and public property. Why? So that when you don't pay your taxes, the government may drive up to your front door. If we had half as may roads, we might have a safe, cheap, effective infastructure, but that is not in the politician's interest.
As for education, the government does not provide education. What little education that occurs while children become indoctrinated and schooled is completly accidental and does not make up for the harm the schooling individuals does to our country. Public schooling is anethema to education and to a free democratic republic. -
I'm of the liberal camp. Of all the times that I've spied on FOX to see how their tacticians spin this or that subject, I cannot remember Napolitano saying anything remotely like what he recently said on CSPAN. Is FOX a sinking ship?
Some people have suggested the judge be a V.P. or Attorney General candidate. How about Supreme Court Justice if not Chief Justice? In terms of judicial nominations-Supreme Court or other-Democrat, Giuliani, fill in the blank other than Paul or Hunter, would mean the end of a free and independent America.
Napolitano is right, impeach the entire gov't for violating the Constitution.
They violate the 1st Amendment by opening mail, caging demonstrators and banning books like America Deceived (book) from Amazon.
They violate the 2nd Amendment by confiscating guns during Katrina.
They violate the 4th Amendment by conducting warrant-less wiretaps.
They violate the 5th and 6th Amendment by suspending habeas corpus.
They violate the 8th Amendment by torturing.
They violate the entire Constitution by starting 2 illegal wars based on lies and on behalf of a foriegn gov't.
Support Dr. Ron Paul and save this great nation. -
Our rights are NATURAL, not bequeathed by "social standards". What part of "endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights..." is so hard to understand?
People can be conditioned to believe their rights come from some human source, but ultimately, no human power has the ability to stop you from believing, speaking, or acting as you wish. All that can be done is make the consequences unpleasant. In the Communist era, there were thousands of Christians, Free Speech advocates, and believers in natural liberties that were persecuted strenuously by the State, but that persisted in their beliefs and actions. This proves that rights are NATURAL, because we can exert them whenever we wish, despite the penalties for doing so.
The main weapon against freedom is the elevation of ego structure over spiritual structure. The threat of disappearing into the black hole of a Gulag, and losing one's ego-structure, is enough to prevent most people from exercising their freedom. But a person who has been trained, either by themselves or by parents, to believe in a spiritual identity that transcends the ego is immune from threats to freedom. They will suffer all manner of abuse at the hands of Government, and will not bow to their power.
Power is addictive because if one person opposes power, that opposition renders power impotent. Power over 999 with opposition from one is no power at all, hence power's impossible struggle toward complete domination.
Let us all determine to be the one in opposition, for that will ultimately destroy the power system that grows so cancerously in this nation.

- Carnymancy's main application is ranged attacks and abilities. Carnymancers can resize objects to make them easier or harder to hit. This allows for easier deployment of units under heavy fire, but at a price–A unit resized by Carnymancy that's hit with an enemy ranged attack causes a cloth golem allied with that side to appear somewhere in that side's army. Carnymancy is also used to change certain objects of high value into tickets and back. This allows for easier transport of funds.

22oz bottle from the 2013 release. It's been in my fridge for about a year, decided to finally sit down and review a bottle.. have had this on two different occasions, but apparently just never got around to writing a review on it.
App- Dark black body, opaque with a nice one finger mocha head that retains fairly well, really nice thin lacing that sinks into the beer. Nice mocha collar and thin film. Looks the part.
Smell- Even at room temp, all I get is a bit of dark fruit and chocolate. No coffee, no roast, no brown sugar, nothing else to tell me this is a true RIS. I would like a lot more that I get here.
Flavour- What it doesn't deliver in the nose, it does deliver on the palate. Charred malts, dark fruit, dark chocolate, a bit of espresso and a slick syrupy sweet molasses finish. Robust, complex with a lot going on.
Mouthfeel- Full bodied, perfectly carbonated. Slick, coating my mouth in bitter chocolate with sweet molasses; it's definitely a sipper due to the intensity of the flavour and its slick nature; there isn't a ton of heat or anything like that.
Overall- Probably one of the best deals out there in terms of Russian Imperial Stouts in bombers at $6.99. Founders Imperial Stout is a better beer and a better value, but for our friends in California who don't get Founders or Dark Horse, this is an excellent and overlooked option.

This is hysterical! These "geezers" can rap!
"Many cases of sickness and death among young generations" not reported
via Enenews - the most important website in the world.
World Network For Saving Children From Radiation, Oct. 26, 2013: A member of WNSC, a US resident and a native of Koriyama city, wrote a message about the critical situation of her family member's friend. [...] A case like this is just a tip of iceburg. Please share it with friends and families. IKKO is a Buddhist monk. His life is ending. He is only 34 years old and lives in Hiwada town [by Koriyama] in Fukushima. He had a heart attack two days ago, and his doctor announced brain death. He is now connected to life-support. My sister in Fukushima knows him through her student [...] She and IKKO got engaged and were planning to get married next year. She has just lost her father from cancer last April. He had worked at Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant when he was younger. [...] My sister was present when IKKO had a heartattack and is in disbelief of what is taking place since he was fine before this happened. IKKO's family and fiancee are devastated and are facing the most difficult decision whether to turn off his life-support. He is battling for his life right now. [...] There have been many cases of sickness and death among young generations in Fukushima although it is not reported by media.
Mother from Tokyo, Japan during Q & A at Cinema Forum Fukushima, Published July 1, 2013 (at 2:20 in): Have you ever read or heard any of the news that actually the symptoms are emerging in Japan? […] In Japan, it's really a total blackout of media, even though there are lots and lots of people who have been developing symptoms. That information itself cannot come out because of the control of the media and the doctors, like the Society of Medicine in Japan, are denying even now that there have been health damages– not a single person, Fukushima or anywhere in Japan — which is really absurd. I just wanted to remind you that this is really a real thing. It's not only the anxiety, it is happening. I think this is the most important thing. But there are very few people who talk about this […] I was outside on the 15th of March in Tokyo, and then about 1 month later, I had fever of like 103ºF for 8 days. And this [baby] boy, he was totally healthy, now he's OK, but at the time he had 101ºF fever on and off for 13 times in the duration of 3 months. He had rash all over and he was really, really sick. He's chubby now, but he became real skinny and he stopped growing for 3 or 4 months. It is really happening. I have 2 nodules in my thyroid, and my boy has countless number of minor nodules. So what I wanted stress most, the most important thing is the symptoms are happening. I want you to know, and I want you to spread this information.
Watch the mother from Tokyo speak at the Q & A here
The map above comes from the Nuclear Emergency Tracking Center. It shows that radiation levels at radiation monitoring stations all over the country are elevated. As you will notice, this is particularly true along the west coast of the United States. Every single day, 300 tons of radioactive water from Fukushima enters the Pacific Ocean. That means that the total amouont of radioactive material released from Fukushima is constantly increasing, and it is steadily building up in our food chain. Ultimately, all of this nuclear radiation will outlive all of us by a very wide margin. They are saying that it could take up to 40 years to clean up the Fukushima disaster, and meanwhile countless innocent people will develop cancer and other health problems as a result of exposure to high levels of nuclear radiation. We are talking about a nuclear disaster that is absolutely unprecedented, and it is constantly getting worse. The following are 28 signs that the west coast of North America is being absolutely fried with nuclear radiation from Fukushima…
1. Polar bears, seals and walruses along the Alaska coastline are suffering fromfur loss and open sores…
Wildlife experts are studying whether fur loss and open sores detected in nine polar bears in recent weeks is widespread and related to similar incidents among seals and walruses. The bears were among 33 spotted near Barrow, Alaska, during routine survey work along the Arctic coastline. Tests showed they had "alopecia, or loss of fur, and other skin lesions," the U.S. Geological Survey said in a statement.

2. There is an epidemic of sea lion deaths along the California coastline…
At island rookeries off the Southern California coast, 45 percent of the pups born in June have died, said Sharon Melin, a wildlife biologist for the National Marine Fisheries Service based in Seattle. Normally, less than one-third of the pups would die. It's gotten so bad in the past two weeks that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration declared an "unusual mortality event."
3. Along the Pacific coast of Canada and the Alaska coastline, the population of sockeye salmon is at a historic low. Many are blaming Fukushima.
4. Something is causing fish all along the west coast of Canada to bleed from their gills, bellies and eyeballs.
5. A vast field of radioactive debris from Fukushima that is approximately the size of California has crossed the Pacific Ocean and is starting to collide with the west coast.
6. It is being projected that the radioactivity of coastal waters off the U.S. west coast could double over the next five to six years.
7. Experts have found very high levels of cesium-137 in plankton living in the waters of the Pacific Ocean between Hawaii and the west coast.
8. One test in California found that 15 out of 15 bluefin tuna were contaminated with radiation from Fukushima.
9. Back in 2012, the Vancouver Sun reported that cesium-137 was being found ina very high percentage of the fish that Japan was selling to Canada…
• 73 percent of mackerel tested
• 91 percent of the halibut
• 92 percent of the sardines
• 93 percent of the tuna and eel
• 94 percent of the cod and anchovies
• 100 percent of the carp, seaweed, shark and monkfish
10. Canadian authorities are finding extremely high levels of nuclear radiation in certain fish samples…
Some fish samples tested to date have had very high levels of radiation: one sea bass sample collected in July, for example, had 1,000 becquerels per kilogram of cesium.
11. Some experts believe that we could see very high levels of cancer along the west coast just from people eating contaminated fish…
"Look at what's going on now: They're dumping huge amounts of radioactivity into the ocean — no one expected that in 2011," Daniel Hirsch, a nuclear policy lecturer at the University of California-Santa Cruz, told Global Security Newswire. "We could have large numbers of cancer from ingestion of fish."
12. BBC News recently reported that radiation levels around Fukushima are "18 times higher" than previously believed.
13. An EU-funded study concluded that Fukushima released up to 210 quadrillion becquerels of cesium-137 into the atmosphere.
14. Atmospheric radiation from Fukushima reached the west coast of the United States within a few days back in 2011.
15. At this point, 300 tons of contaminated water is pouring into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day.
16. A senior researcher of marine chemistry at the Japan Meteorological Agency's Meteorological Research Institute says that "30 billion becquerels of radioactive cesium and 30 billion becquerels of radioactive strontium" are being released into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day.
17. According to Tepco, a total of somewhere between 20 trillion and 40 trillion becquerels of radioactive tritium have gotten into the Pacific Ocean since the Fukushima disaster first began.
18. According to a professor at Tokyo University, 3 gigabecquerels of cesium-137 are flowing into the port at Fukushima Daiichi every single day.
19. It has been estimated that up to 100 times as much nuclear radiation has been released into the ocean from Fukushima than was released during the entire Chernobyl disaster.
20. One recent study concluded that a very large plume of cesium-137 from the Fukushima disaster will start flowing into U.S. coastal waters early next year…
Ocean simulations showed that the plume of radioactive cesium-137 released by the Fukushima disaster in 2011 could begin flowing into U.S. coastal waters starting in early 2014 and peak in 2016.
21. It is being projected that significant levels of cesium-137 will reach every corner of the Pacific Ocean by the year 2020.
22. It is being projected that the entire Pacific Ocean will soon "have cesium levels 5 to 10 times higher" than what we witnessed during the era of heavy atomic bomb testing in the Pacific many decades ago.
23. The immense amounts of nuclear radiation getting into the water in the Pacific Ocean has caused environmental activist Joe Martino to issue the following warning…
"Your days of eating Pacific Ocean fish are over."
24. The Iodine-131, Cesium-137 and Strontium-90 that are constantly coming from Fukushima are going to affect the health of those living the the northern hemisphere for a very, very long time. Just consider what Harvey Wassermanhad to say about this…
Iodine-131, for example, can be ingested into the thyroid, where it emits beta particles (electrons) that damage tissue. A plague of damaged thyroids has already been reported among as many as 40 percent of the children in the Fukushima area. That percentage can only go higher. In developing youngsters, it can stunt both physical and mental growth. Among adults it causes a very wide range of ancillary ailments, including cancer. Cesium-137 from Fukushima has been found in fish caught as far away as California. It spreads throughout the body, but tends to accumulate in the muscles. Strontium-90's half-life is around 29 years. It mimics calcium and goes to our bones.

25. According to a recent Planet Infowars report, the California coastline is being transformed into "a dead zone"…
The California coastline is becoming like a dead zone. If you haven't been to a California beach lately, you probably don't know that the rocks are unnaturally CLEAN – there's hardly any kelp, barnacles, sea urchins, etc. anymore and the tide pools are similarly eerily devoid of crabs, snails and other scurrying signs of life… and especially as compared to 10 – 15 years ago when one was wise to wear tennis shoes on a trip to the beach in order to avoid cutting one's feet on all the STUFF of life – broken shells, bones, glass, driftwood, etc. There are also days when I am hard-pressed to find even a half dozen seagulls and/or terns on the county beach. You can still find a few gulls trolling the picnic areas and some of the restaurants (with outdoor seating areas) for food, of course, but, when I think back to 10 – 15 years ago, the skies and ALL the beaches were literally filled with seagulls and the haunting sound of their cries both day and night… NOW it's unnaturally quiet.

26. A study conducted last year came to the conclusion that radiation from the Fukushima nuclear disaster could negatively affect human life along the west coast of North America from Mexico to Alaska "for decades".
27. According to the Wall Street Journal, it is being projected that the cleanup of Fukushima could take up to 40 years to complete.
28. Yale Professor Charles Perrow is warning that if the cleanup of Fukushima is not handled with 100% precision that humanity could be threatened "for thousands of years"…
"Conditions in the unit 4 pool, 100 feet from the ground, are perilous, and if any two of the rods touch it could cause a nuclear reaction that would be uncontrollable. The radiation emitted from all these rods, if they are not continually cool and kept separate, would require the evacuation of surrounding areas including Tokyo. Because of the radiation at the site the 6,375 rods in the common storage pool could not be continuously cooled; they would fission and all of humanity will be threatened, for thousands of years."
Are you starting to understand why so many people are so deeply concerned about what is going on at Fukushima?

You can say its because of a global shift in consciousness, a destiny we have arrived at due to spiritual evolution, or the outcome of strange times, but, many people all across the globe are going through intense personal changes and sensing an expansion of consciousness. Personal changes of this magnitude can be difficult to recognize and to understand, but here are 21 traits of an awakening soul, a 'sensitive', or an 'empath.'
1. Being in public places is sometimes overwhelming. Since our walls between self and other are dissolving, we haven't really learned to distinguish between someone else's energy and our own. If the general mood of the crowd is herd-like or negative, we can feel this acutely, and may feel like retreating into our own private space. When we have recharged our batteries with meditation, spending time in nature, far away from other people, or just sitting in quiet contemplation, we are ready to be with the masses again. In personal relationships, we often will feel someone else's emotions as our own. It is important to have this higher sense of empathy, but we must learn to allow another person's emotions while observing them and keeping our empathy, but, realizing that not all emotions belong to us. Social influence can dampen our own innate wisdom.
2. We know things without having to intellectually figure them out. Often called intuitive awareness, we have 'a-ha' moments and insights that can explain some of the most complex theories or phenomenon in the world. Some of the most brilliant minds of our time just 'know.' Adepts and sages often were given downloads of information from higher states of consciousness after meditating or being in the presence of a more conscious individual; this is happening for more people with more frequency. As we trust our intuition more often, it grows stronger. This is a time of 'thinking' with our hearts more than our heads. Our guts will no longer be ignored. Our dreams are becoming precognitive and eventually our conscious thoughts will be as well.
3. Watching television or most of main stream media, including newspapers and many Hollywood movies is very distasteful to us. The mindset that creates much, but not all, of the programming on television and in cinema is abhorrent. It commodifies people and promotes violence. It reduces our intelligence and numbs our natural empathetic response to someone in pain.
4. Lying to us is nearly impossible. We may not know exactly what truth you are withholding, but we can also tell (with our developing intuition and ESP skills) that something isn't right. We also know when you have other emotions, pain, love, etc. that you aren't expressing. You're an open book to us. We aren't trained in counter-intelligence, we are just observant and knowing. While we may pick up on physical cues, we can look into your eyes and know what you are feeling.
5. We may pick up symptoms of your cold, just like men who get morning sickness when their wives are pregnant. Sympathy pains, whether emotional or physical, are something we experience often. We tend to absorb emotion through the solar plexus, considered the place we 'stomach emotion' so as we learn to strengthen this chakra center, we may sometimes develop digestive issues. Grounding to the earth can help to re-establish our emotional center. Walking barefoot is a great way to re-ground.
6. We tend to root for the underdog, those without voices, those who have been beaten down by the matrix, etc. We are very compassionate people, and these marginalized individuals often need more love. People can sense our loving hearts, so complete strangers will often tell us their life stories or approach us with their problems. While we don't want to be a dumping ground for everyone's issues, we are also a good ear for those working through their stuff.
7. If we don't learn how to set proper boundaries, we can get tired easily from taking on other people's emotions. Energy Vampires are drawn to us like flies to paper, so we need to be extra vigilant in protecting ourselves at times.
8. Unfortunately, sensitives or empaths often turn to drug abuse or alcohol to block some of their emotions and to 'protect' themselves from feeling the pain of others.
9. We are all becoming healers. We naturally gravitate toward healing fields, acupuncture, reiki, Qi-Gong, yoga, massage, midwivery, etc. are fields we often find ourselves in. We know that the collective needs to be healed, and so we try our best to offer healing in whatever form we are most drawn to. We also turn away from the 'traditional' forms of healing ourselves. Preferring natural foods, herbs, and holistic medicine as ways to cure every ailment.
10. We see the possibilities before others do. Just like when the church told Copernicus he was wrong, and he stood by his heliocentric theory, we know what the masses refuse to believe. Our minds are light-years ahead.
11. We are creative. We sing, dance, paint, invent, or write. We have amazing imaginations.
12. We require more solitude than the average person.
13. We might get bored easily, but we are really good at entertaining ourselves.
14. We have a difficult time doing things we don't want to do or don't really enjoy. We really do believe life was meant to be an expression of joy. Why waste it doing something you hate? We aren't lazy, we are discerning.
15. We are obsessed with bringing the truth to light. Like little children who say, "that's not fair" we want to right the wrongs of the world, and we believe it often just takes education. We endeavor to explain the unexplainable and find answers to the deep questions of life. We are seekers, in the Campbellian paradigm. 'The Hero With a Thousand Faces."
16. We can't keep track of time. Our imaginations often get away with us and a day can feel like a minute, a week, a day.
17. We abhor routine.
18. We often disagree with authority (for obvious reasons).
19. We will often be kind, but if you are egotistical or rude, we won't spend much time with you or find an excuse to not hang out with people who are obsessed with themselves. We don't 'get' people who are insensitive to other people's feelings or points of view.
20. We may be vegan or vegetarian because we can sense a certain energy of the food we eat, like if an animal was slaughtered inhumanely. We don't want to consume negative energy.
21. We wear our own emotions on our sleeves and have a hard time 'pretending' to be happy if we aren't. We avoid confrontation, But will quietly go about changing the world in ways you can't even see.
These 21 traits of an awakening soul are a reminder of how important it is to maintain awareness, clarity and strength in these interesting times. If you are experiencing something that is not on this list, please add it to the comments section below.

The peer-reviewed journal Clinical Neurophysiology has just published research showing that 30 minutes of exposure to LTE cellphone radiation affects brain activity on both sides of the brain.1
Researchers exposed the right ear of 18 participants to LTE radio frequency radiation for 30 minutes. The absorbed amount of radiation in the brain was well within international (ICNIRP) cell phone legal limits and the source of the radiation was kept 1 cm from the ear. To eliminate study biases the researchers employed a double blind, crossover, randomized design, exposing participants to real and sham exposures.
The resting state brain activity of each participant was measured by magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) twice, once after exposure to LTE radio frequency radiation, and then again after a sham exposure.
The results demonstrate that radio frequency radiation from LTE 4G technology affects brain neural activity in both the closer brain region and in the remote region, including the left hemisphere of the brain.
LTE Fastest Developing Mobile System Technology Ever
This study is important for two reasons. Firstly because it is the first one to be carried out on the short-term effects of Long Term Evolution (LTE), fourth generation (4G) cell phone technology. Secondly, because of the rapid rate of adoption of this technology.
According to the Global mobile Suppliers Association "LTE is the fastest developing mobile system technology ever". The United States is the largest LTE market in the world. By March 2013 the global total of LTE subscriptions was already 91 million subscribers. Over half of these, 47 million, were American 4G subscribers.

Cell Phone Exposures and Disease
This study establishes that short-term exposure to LTE radio frequency radiation affects brain activity. The long-term effects of these exposures have yet to be studied but there is already considerable evidence linking these exposures to a myriad of adverse biological effects including:
Sperm damage
DNA breaks
Increased glucose in the brain
Weakened bones
Genetic stress
Immune system dysfunction
Effects on unborn children
More worrying is the link between these exposures and a long list of diseases such as:
Alzheimer's disease
Brain Tumors
Breast cancer
Brain cancer
More research is needed on the effects of LTE and other forms of cell phone radiation but the evidence is already compelling. Many scientific and medical experts are sounding the alarm.

I hope to work on this Monday, so here's hoping you folks in the earlier time zones (or earlier birds) can give me your comments before I get at it.
The question is does it matter with a fence if it's good side in or out? This is a piece of fence between the two houses, at the back of the house but faces the front yard. I am putting up a new 'fill' of trellice and there will definitly be a good/bad side (bad side being the side the horizontal 2X4's show on) and would like the good side to be facing into my backyard but I'm wondering if there are any real rules for such things. I do know that with a main fence the bylaws here say good side out but I wonder if it counts when it's not really a section that is out there and really visible. Really this section is at least 30 or more feet from the front walk and passerbys would be hard pressed to see it through the giant bushes that are around.
BTW, stupid, stupid gates...every house I've had the gates have been a pain. I'm beginning to think there is no such thing as a worry free gate. I took all of the boards off that fence section tonight and that included a gate (and not the one that I had broken to get my hand free either). With the last board the whole stupid thing fell to pieces (I was thinking the frame part was okay) and is laying in a heap. I decided I'll worry about what to do about it tomorrow :hairpull:
Yes, unfortunately, she does chase the bunnies. I do look out in the morning to try and see if any are in our yard before I let her out, but we have a bit of a hill at the back that hides them, so sometimes she gets close! At least she has to go down a flight of stairs, and to the end of the yard, so bunny gets a head start. I don't think she would know what to do, though, if she ever caught one. She'd be terrified, I'm sure! :D
Oh, and we can't even SAY the "S" word on our house, without the dog going snake! Those, I don't mind if she chases!!
Wow, that looks great, so nice and airy. I'm sure that it helps with the cross breeze, as well as allowing your sweet little puppy some viewing access.
We have chain link fence, and the little bunnies squeeze in under it, and hippity hop through our yard, totally oblivious of our VERY fast aussie. If you do the wire edging, at least they'll be able to get in [B]and [/B] out very quickly! You'd think they wouldn't even want to be in a dog yard, but they have quite a trail worn in my grass -- silly bunnies!
You need a nice Canada Day rest this weekend, for sure, with all the work you've been doing. Sit down, put your feet up, and have a nice, cool, mojito :D
A great improvement and you did it so quickly. Rather than chicken wire I'd used a heavier garden edging wire. If Ebony saw those rabbits on the other side she might not be stopped by some flimsy chicken wire. Once the plants get going nobody will see the wire and it the winter the snow will hide it.
DBD, that is a neat design. I was wondering ... will your dog try to escape through the gap at the bottom?
you are not having much luck with your fence/gate issue, are you!
I would agree with Jan in Van, if you say it's not obvious, do what you think looks best, and plead ignorance if anyone says anything!! I'm not sure from your description, though, does this fence piece border into a neighbour's yard? That may make a difference in what you do, depending on the mood of your neighbour :D
Could the style of your fence and privacy issues as to where your gates are situated allow for wrought iron gates perhaps? I know, it was same thing for us....any wooden gate we've ever had has never worked/lasted well -- I was wondering if a wrought iron one would be a solution in our last house. This one has chain link, but at least it works!:laugh:
Good luck!
Can you alternate the boards so one faces the back & then one front, etc?
Or you could build the fence so the good side faces the back & hope like hell no one complains. If they did, then just add another row of boards facting towards the front. It might be pricey if someone ever complained but probably worth taking the risk since it's not too visible.
I hope you kicked that stupid gate when it fell apart on you. :D So frustrating.

Edited by Dr. Douglas V. Johnson II.
This collection of monographs has been assembled from the 42 Personal Experience Monographs written by the U.S. Army War College (USAWC) Class of 1998. The Personal Experience Monograph program was instituted immediately after the Gulf War with the original purpose of capturing first-person histories of various aspects of that war. The program rapidly expanded to include any military experience that might prove useful to others. When the USAWC Class of 1998 arrived, it was evident that a great many had recent experience in Bosnia that might prove useful to others who would eventually serve there. The collection assembled here was chosen for the wide variation of branch functions and the centrality of the initial deployment issues addressed. The authors speak for themselves with minimal editorial interference.

WASHINGTON, March 11- The crisis in Ukraine has not jeopardized the longstanding relationship between the U.S. Air Force and the Russian company that builds engines for the rockets used to launch large U.S. government satellites, a U.S. official said on Tuesday.
WASHINGTON, March 11- The U.S. Air Force is "holding tight" to a target of $550 million for each new long-range bomber in a fleet of up to 100 aircraft, excluding research and development costs, an Air Force official said on Tuesday. The Air Force planned to spend nearly $12 billion on the bomber program over the next five years, said spokesman Ed Gulick.
WASHINGTON, March 11- The crisis in Ukraine has not jeopardized the longstanding relationship between the U.S. Air Force and the Russian company that builds engines for the rockets used to launch large U.S. government satellites, a U.S. official said on Tuesday.

WASHINGTON, March 10- The U.S. Navy has awarded contracts worth nearly $1.4 billion to buy four more Littoral Combat Ships- two from Lockheed Martin Corp and two from Australia's Austal, the U.S. Defense Department said on Monday.
WASHINGTON, March 6- The U.S. Navy plans to add 22 Boeing electronic attack jets to a list of "unfunded" priorities requested by Congress, but the document must still be vetted by senior Pentagon officials, who have underscored their commitment to Lockheed Martin Corp's next-generation F-35 fighter jet, sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.
WASHINGTON, March 4- The U.S. Air Force decided on Tuesday to start work on a new rescue helicopter by United Technologies Corp's Sikorsky Aircraft in fiscal 2015, a surprising turnaround hours after the Pentagon told Congress the program had been postponed.
WASHINGTON, March 4- The U.S. Missile Defense Agency is evaluating a range of options for redesigning the current Raytheon Co "kill vehicle" on its ground-based missile defense interceptors, and may opt for a competition, the agency's director said on Tuesday.
BRASILIA, Feb 27- Brazil is hoping to sell its upcoming KC-390 military cargo plane to Sweden as part of a $4.5 billion deal to buy 36 Gripen fighter jets made by Swedish company Saab AB. Embraer's new jet is set for its first flight by the end of the year and has received early commitments for orders from Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Chile.
Hagel announced the decision during a preview of the Pentagon's fiscal 2015 budget proposal, saying that growing threats in the Asia-Pacific region in particular meant the Navy needed to develop new small surface ships that could operate "in every region and along the full spectrum of conflict."
TOKYO, Feb 23- Japan has drafted new guidelines that would reverse a decades-old ban on weapons exports, a source with knowledge of the matter said on Sunday, a move that could further strain ties with neighbours China and South Korea.
But U.S. weapons maker Raytheon Co has revolutionized that process at a sprawling, classified facility in Huntsville, Alabama, where automated transporters ferry missile parts to gleaming assembly stations, and even tuck themselves away for charging when their batteries run low.
HUNTSVILLE, Alabama, Feb 21- The Pentagon is committed to early design work on a new aircraft that will replace thousands of helicopters now used by the U.S. military, its first "clean sheet design" program in years, the Army official heading the effort said on Friday.

BOSTON, Feb 18- French aerospace engine maker Snecma, a unit of Safran, was attacked by hackers who exploited a vulnerability in Microsoft Corp's Internet Explorer, according to a computer security researcher.
WASHINGTON, Feb 13- Boeing Co is mounting a last-ditch campaign to convince U.S. lawmakers to buy more fighter jets and stave off a shutdown of a St. Louis production line after the U.S. Navy failed to fund the jets.
WASHINGTON, Feb 12- Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel is expected to preview the Pentagon's fiscal 2015 budget request on Feb. 24, a week before the White House sends its formal budget plan to Congress, according to sources familiar with the matter.

Bone marrow — spongy tissue inside your bones — contains stem cells that can become red blood cells, white blood cells or platelets. Platelets travel through your blood vessels. They stick together to form clots that stop the bleeding when you damage a blood vessel, such as when you get a cut. A normal platelet count ranges from 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood.
If you have essential thrombocythemia, your bone marrow makes too many platelet-forming cells (megakaryocytes), which release too many platelets into your blood. The excess platelets may not function normally, leading to abnormal clotting or bleeding.
The exact cause of essential thrombocythemia and similar conditions, known as myeloproliferative neoplasms, isn't known. About half the people with the disorder have a mutation of the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) gene. Other gene mutations also have been linked to essential thrombocythemia.
A high platelet count that's caused by an underlying condition such as an infection or iron deficiency is called reactive or secondary thrombocytosis.

Just bought a couple of speakers over Xmas and were defective (nightmare scenario when dealing with an unknown company over the internet). My fears were unfounded, in fact they replaced them quickly and covered the delivery costs - top notch service. This is a good alternative to Amazon on the price and service end. Have recommended them to my friends.

Top cover girl and fashion model, Jennifer Tree (Elisha Cuthbert) has it all—beauty, fame, money and power. Her face appears on the covers of hundreds of magazines. At the top of her game, Jennifer is America's sweetheart. She is loved and adored and sought after. Everyone wants her. But someone out there has been watching and waiting. Someone wants her in the worst way.
Out alone at a charity event in Soho, Jennifer is drugged and taken. Held captive in a cell, Jennifer is subjected to a series of terrifying, life-threatening tortures that could only be conceived by a twisted, sadistic mind. Her will to escape and survive is challenged every moment by a maniac's desire to demoralize innocent victims and play out his sick game that has been played many times before Jennifer was taken.
