Good vitamin
By Middle Sister
from Pittsburgh, PA
I used to give the nu cat supplement which my cats really liked. I switched to senior nu cat as they need some of the additional support. The senior nu cat is harder and does not smell as good as the non-senior but one of them still eats the vitamins. The others eat sometimes. Both the nu-cat and senior seem to have made a difference in my cat who has skin and nerve sensitivity. She has become more friendly and likes to be petted now.

Great Chicken-Free Option
By Chuffnloaf
from Columbus, OH
This is a great option for cats who are allergic to chicken. Finding a product that does not incorporate chicken that Xoey will eat has been a challenge. As others have mentioned, the smell is odd, and Xoey will not eat them whole. I break both tablets in half on the counter, then use a soup spoon to press and crush the pieces in her stainless steel bowl-takes all of about 10 seconds and saves us both the stress of trying to get her to swallow them. I mix the powder well with 2-3 teaspoons of canned food, and she inhales it. I love the quality and spectrum offered in this product. We have only used the product for a few days; no noticeable effect yet. Xoey is only 10, and I purchased this in hopes of making her middle and senior years healthy ones.

I wish I knew about this several years a
By Ming's Mom
from Dallas, TX
I have a really old cat 20+. She hadn't been eating at had a history of GI problems. She had lost a lot of weight. I started giving her these vitamins and within a day or two she started eating again and seemed ravenous. Her GI disorders seemed to clear up too -- no more messes. She now eats pretty regularly and her coat is starting to look great. She's still an old cat, but she looks much better and is actually putting some weight on. Great product!

mY CAT LOVES nu-cat HE EATS THEM LIKE TREATS
A Great Formula for Geriatric Felines!
By Jolie B.
from Rochester, MI
I've owned felines for 28 years. I had never heard of a vitamin like this made especially for senior cats. Since I'm only down to owning one cat now who is 11, I thought I would try these. Being my cat is a Siamese and very finicky, I thought for sure he would NEVER touch these small tabs. Well, I just threw one down in his food dish and voila! It was GONE! Now I put them in his dish everyday and it automatically gets eaten up with the rest of the food. The only thing is, you have to give your cat 4 of these tabs a day and it says you need to make sure they take them with food. I would imagine they could get an upset stomach if they ate them alone. But I'm VERY pleased with these and the comforting feeling I have knowing he's getting extra nutrients he wouldn't otherwise get in the rest of his diet. Bravo Vetri-Science for making these! He loves them!!!!
Marked Improvement
By The Furry Kidz
from White Haven, PA
My 15 yr old rescued Persian has had a harder than average life and these vitamins have given her back some of her spry, youthful ways. Wish it came in a liquid. Even in pill form, I will keep giving to her. Definitely worth the effort on my part!
She likes the switch!
By Top Cat
from Central Virginia
Our kitty was enjoying the regular Nu Cat Support. After about a week (she knew something was different) she eagerly eats her Nu Cat Senior Support.
One of the best things I found
By Momcat of 4
I started my 15yr old Persian on this and received great results. I ran out of it and was waiting a few weeks to get a larger order together. What a mistake! Her appetite declined and she just seemed lethargic. Within one week of getting a new supply, she perked right back up! Never will we go without again!
Love this vitamin
By viv
from Gainesville, VA
At first I put the pill out for the cats to eat but they did not eat it. So now I find it easy to slip into the back of their tongue/throat and the pill goes right down with no problems. The vitamin has given my cats more energy and they seem to feel better since I started the vitamins. I like the ingredients.

BRISTOW, Va. (AP) - Funeral services are scheduled for a Prince William County police officer who died after his motorcycle struck a minivan in Bristow earlier this week.
Funeral services for 35-year-old Officer Chris Yung will be held Friday at the Hylton Memorial Chapel in Woodbridge.
The crash that killed Yung happened Monday as he was on his way to the scene of another accident. Yung was heading south on Nokesville Road when his motorcycle struck the minivan. Yung was taken to a hospital, where he died. No one else was injured.
Yung was a 7-year veteran of the department and worked for the traffic unit.

Access Control Systems
Access control systems, while a broadly defined term, here can be limited to the parts and accessories necessary to implement an access control system for a multi-door application. As stated, at a basic level, you'll find that you can start with a single electric lock, and it can evolve to proximity-based entry ways including card readers, and even biometric fingerprint readers. Our goal is to supply our customers with the parts necessary for them to properly implement and keep-up their current systems. Browse our selection and find the parts that are right for you.
Kantech EK-302 Access Control Two-Door Expansion Kit$1,016.54
Kantech EK-400 Access Control Four-Door Expansion Kit$1,782.95
Kantech EK-402 Access Control Four-Door Expansion Kit$2,303.47
Kantech EK-403 Access Control Four-Door Expansion Kit$2,303.47
Kantech SK-CE402 Access Control Four-Door Starter Kit$2,886.52
Kantech SK-CE403 Access Control Four-Door Starter Kit$2,886.52
Kantech SK-SE302 Access Control Two-Door Starter Kit$1,164.41
Kantech SK-SE402 Access Control Four-Door Starter Kit$2,450.50
Kantech SK-SE403 Access Control Four-Door Starter Kit$2,450.50
Door Access Control Systems
Having a door access control system is integral to the security of your building, and we take pride in being able to supply our customers with the pieces that they need to maintain and develop their access systems. If you are considering implementing a new access control system, there are a number of things that you should take into account.
Not only do the needs vary depending on the size of the facility, but the type of access that you want patrons of your building to receive, and the necessary level of security.
Expansion Kit
We offer expansion kits for customers who are currently looking to upgrade their systems. This includes such produces as the Kantech EK series for two- to four-door expansion. Each expansion kit differs to meet the needs of the customer, but can include all of the parts necessary for a complete access control system. That includes software among other peripherals.
The expansion kits, specifically with the starter packs, are easy to use and implement, and will require little outside help for installation, if any.
Rims & Strikes
Depending on the type of access you want to have for your doors, we offer rims and electric strikes that can attach to virtually any entryway, for a better automated system.
These systems allow you to remotely open a door, and not worry about secure closure. This can be a big difference maker in higher security environments, where a door cannot afford to accidentally stay ajar.
Proximity Access
For more advanced access control systems, we also offer proximity access starter packs and kits. These will allow customers to distribute a broader amount of independent access capabilities, which can be necessary with a larger staff. They can also be programmed to limit certain permissions, and keep from situations like key-copying and forgery.
Access control systems can be your best step to safe-guarding and securing your entryways, and we are proud to provide the tools necessary to make that even easier. Our inventory is full of all the latest pieces and equipment that you may need, whether implementing a brand new system or just replacing certain parts.
For those customers who may already have an idea of what exactly they need from us, we encourage you to use the search bar to find the specific product you need. Thank you for shopping with Buy Access.

They are among the best-known stories in the world. These tales from the Old Testament are fundamental narratives central to the Judeo-Christian tradition and to world culture.
In the mid-90s, the TNT® network undertook a remarkable effort to definitively dramatize these important sagas. The result was a library of lavish, feature-length films starring some of the greatest actors in the world including Sir Richard Harris, Ben Kingsley and Michael Gambon.
Filmed on location near the actual historical sites, and sparing no expense to achieve a striking authenticity, these beautifully photographed productions bring brilliantly to life the most important figures of the Old Testament Abraham, David, Jacob, Moses and others and compellingly immerse the audience in their world.
This special DVD collection offers faithful dramatizations of six central Old Testament stories. The BIBLE MOVIE COLLECTION will move you, entertain you and possibly enlighten you.
The BIBLE MOVIE COLLECTION includes:
- ABRAHAM: This is a dramatization of the life of Abraham, the most tested servant of God, from his quest for the Promised Land to the sacrifice of his son. Richard Harris.
- DAVID: Depicts David as a simple man who rises to greatness as he is chosen to be the ruler of Israel. Nathaniel Parker, Jonathan Pryce, Leonard Nimoy, Sheryl Lee.
- JACOB: Based on the biblical story of Jacob, who betrayed his brother and toiled long in penance before receiving God's grace and forgiveness. Matthew Modine, Lara Flynn Boyle.
- JOSEPH: The tale of Jacob's son who rose to power in Egypt, much to the dismay and chagrin of his 10 older brothers. Ben Kingsley, Martin Landau, Leslie Ann Warren.
- MOSES: An ordinary man is called upon by God to do the impossible. Persecuted by the Pharoah, Moses leads his people to freedom. Ben Kingsley.
- SAMSON AND DELILAH: A beautiful Philistine woman betrays a man whose strength can single-handedly defeat entire armies. Eric Thal, Elizabeth Hurley, Dennis Hopper.

Florence Woman Arrested for Evading Income Taxes
Columbia, SC (September 16, 2013) --- Department of Revenue investigators today arrested Nanette Watford of Florence on four tax evasion charges.
Watford, 49, could face up to 20 years in prison and/or up to $40,000 in fines for the charges covering tax years 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011.
During this time, Watford earned $280,351 in wages and filed W4 withholding certificates claiming excessive exemptions which caused minimum South Carolina income tax to be withheld from her paychecks. Watford also failed to file South Carolina income tax returns as required by law, therefore avoiding paying $9,923 in state taxes.
Watford, a resident of Wallace Road, is currently being held at the Florence County Detention Center pending a bond hearing.

Perfect Maple Syrup! As a city dweller, it is not often I get to do "country", however, once I found your website, it is irresistible to me!

And the bottle - well, what can I say - it's adorable and perfect for seasonal weather! I also appreciate the fact that everything is American made! Thank you! November 27, 2013
a gift Every now and then I purchase an item for someone in my family. My daughter-in-law loves this syrup so when I ordered something for myself, I ordered the syrup for her. She loves it. June 6, 2013
Beautiful design This bottle not only has a beautiful design, the color of the maple syrup is a perfect compliment to the flavor of fall. It makes an exceptional gift. Thank you for your many fine products. April 16, 2013
Sooooooooooooooo Good! This Vermont Maple Syrup is soooooooooo good that I've poured some straight from the jar into a small glass to sip. Yes, some of you may be groaning in disgust, but this syrup is really good enough to drink as is. You won't be sorry for purchasing this selection! March 14, 2013

As US fracking moves into suburbia, Tulsa bans it within city limits.
Guardian: "Some cities have moved to limit fracking or ban it outright – even in the heart of oil and gas country. Tulsa, Oklahoma, which once billed itself as the oil capital of the world, banned fracking inside city limits." "The authorities in Dallas last week blocked what would have been the first natural gas well in town." …But Gardendale, a suburb of 1,500 people near the hub of the west Texas oil industry, exists in a legal and political environment in which there are seemingly few restrictions on fracking, even inside city limits. For residents here, fracking is part of daily life."

Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty
The vertebrae are a series of bones that make up the spine. When one fractures , it can put pressure on surrounding nerves. This can cause intense pain and disability. The bones may be repaired with these procedures.
- In vertebroplasty, an acrylic cement is injected into a fractured and collapsed vertebra (spinal bone). The cement strengthens the bone and decreases pain from the fracture.
- In kyphoplasty, a balloon is used to create a cavity to inject the cement into. This procedure is designed to relieve pain. It can also improve spinal deformities from the fractures.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Reasons for Procedure
Both procedures are used to decrease pain from osteoporotic or pathologic vertebral compression fractures.
Kyphoplasty also restores the height of the bone. This can decrease the spinal deformity caused by the fracture.
Other treatment for vertebral fracture may include nonsurgical treatments, such as bed rest, bracing, and pain medicines.
Possible Complications
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have a vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty, your doctor will review a list of possible complications which may include:
- Leakage of the cement into the spinal canal or into adjacent veins
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Increased back pain
- Fracture of adjacent vertebra or ribs
- Numbness, tingling
- Paralysis
Your doctor may feel that the risks of these procedures are too great if you have:
- Vertebral fractures that extend into the spinal canal area
- Radiculopathy—irritation of a nerve root in the area of the fracture that often causes areas of numbness, tingling, or weakness in the leg
- Bleeding disorders
- Unusually soft or porous bones
If you have vertebral fracture due to osteoporosis , vertebroplasty may not be as effective.
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
- Smoking
- Drinking
- Chronic disease such as diabetes or obesity
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
- You will receive a complete physical exam and blood tests.
- You will have imaging studies of your back to identify the nature of the fracture, such as:
Talk to your doctor about your medicines. You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Aspirin or other anti-inflammatory drugs
- Blood thinners, such as clopidogrel or warfarin
- You will need to stop eating at least six hours prior to the procedure. Stop drinking fluids about 3-6 hours prior to the procedure.
- Most are done using only IV sedation and local anesthesia. The sedation will help you relax. The local will numb the area above the fractured bone.
- In some cases, general anesthesia may be used. You will be asleep.
Description of Procedure
You will be asked to lie down on your stomach. X-ray cameras will be positioned around you. The cameras will show images of the bone. Your doctor will use this to verify the position of the needles and cement.
The skin over the fractured bone will be numbed and sterilized. A hollow needle will be passed into the vertebra. The acrylic cement will be mixed into a toothpaste-like consistency. An added substance, called barium, will improve the images. When the needle position is ideal, the cement will be injected into the fractured bone. The doctor will watch the cement as it enters the bone to check for leaks.
Your doctor will begin by making a small incision in your back. A tiny drill will be used to create an opening in the bone. A special balloon will be passed through. The balloon will be inflated to open the space and correct the deformity. After the balloon is removed, acrylic cement will be injected into the cavity. This will help to maintain the correction.
Immediately After Procedure
You may have a CT scan to confirm the position of the cement. You will stay on your stomach for about 10-20 minutes. This will allow the cement to harden. You will then be moved to a recovery room. You will be asked to lie on your back for another hour or so.
How Long Will It Take?
40 minutes to 2 hours
How Much Will It Hurt?
You may feel some initial pain due to lying on your stomach. Many notice immediate and significant relief from pain.
Average Hospital Stay
You will usually only need to stay in the hospital for a few hours. You may need to stay longer if you have any complications.
Post-procedure Care
At the Hospital
You will be monitored for a few hours for any complications.
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection such as:
- Washing their hands
- Wearing gloves or masks
- Keeping your incisions covered
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chances of infection such as:
- Washing your hands often and reminding visitors and healthcare providers to do the same
- Reminding your healthcare providers to wear gloves or masks
- Not allowing others to touch your incisions
At Home
You may notice some discomfort at the site of the needle insertion or the tiny incision. This is often relieved through the use of an ice pack (use only for 15 minutes per hour).
Acetaminophen or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicine may also help. You may also be given medicine to prevent muscle spasm.
You will be asked to stay in bed for about 24 hours after the procedure. After 24 hours, you can gradually increase your activities up to your usual level. Ask your doctor about when it is safe to shower, bathe, or soak in water.
Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions .
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or any discharge from the incision site or the needle insertion site
- Severe back or rib pain
- Cough, shortness of breath, or chest pain
- New numbness, tingling, or weakness
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Look sharp and come out of the dryer still looking sharp. September 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by BravefanEddie Best Chinos Ever! I'm a bigger guy & as bigger guys know, most pants are based on waist size which makes the legs baggy. The slim fit makes it so that the legs provide an excellent fit even with the bigger waist. The material makes it super easy to move in. Love these pants - I bought 5 colors in this style! They can be dressed down or up depending on your shirt & shoes September 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ladyluck Excellent pants Great pants, great price and the pants are perfect! Great quality too. My husband loves his new pants and I love them on him. Crazy difference from regular fit pants to slim fit. I hope he doesn't have to go back to regular fit. :) September 8, 2014

Love your flags! The Olympics have me wanting to go back to London (its been almost 20 years since I've been), and I just bought the Victory Garden pattern which is a quilt made with a bunch of Union Jacks. The Dear Stella fabric is adorable - that's a must for the stash!ReplyDelete
Love your flag blocks - and the previous flag quilt! I really enjoyed watching the Opening Ceremony - Wow! Would like to see it again! Hope and pray all goes well during the Games!ReplyDelete
This is so awesome!! Now I want to do a quilt of nations!! Then every Olympics I could snuggle under it and watch it!!ReplyDelete
If you ever feel the need for a quilt a long sign me up!!!
I love your flag blocks and that fabric is gorgeous! I'm enjoying the Olympics so far but am shattered from staying up to watch the opening ceremony ;o)ReplyDelete
I'm a total Olympic nerd. I love every minute of it. I'm so happy that NBC is letting you watch all the events online LIVE (if you have a cable subscription :( ) There are so many events that I miss every year because they just don't show them. :)ReplyDelete
Love all the different flags, and that fabric is cute! I'm enjoying the whole multi-view option the BBC is running right now, pick your sport and you don't have to be interrupted by anything else :o)ReplyDelete
Ack!!! I never thought your flag quilt could be any cuter, but it most definitely will be with the addition of MORE flags!! Can't wait to see what you do.ReplyDelete
I know exactly what you mean...when hubby and I were watching NBC's little beginning clip starting at the headwaters of the Thames it went through OX and we were like STOP...the girl is there and we were just there last month! So cool!:)ReplyDelete
I am watching as much as my work schedule will let me :) Loved the Queen's entrance at last night's opening ceremony! I think when it's time for the Queen's funeral, among all of her other accomplishments, she will be noted for her humor and participation during the 2012 Olympics.ReplyDelete
You know, I wanted to cross stitch blocks for my sister who moved a lot as a Navy wife, then put them into a quilt -- but this is a fantastic idea for my brother in the State Department who has lived all over the place with his wife and kids. He's thinking of retiring after his next posting, which is a four year post so I could get a HUGE head start on this! You are a genius and I'm thrilled I found some quilting blogs! I hope you laugh -- I saw Notre Dame and I looked at the flag and I thought to myself, "our colors are blue and gold -- what the heck is she talking about and what do Monet and French pancakes have to do with my alma mater?" A genius I am not! :)ReplyDelete
We've been watching here too. The opening ceremonies were great!ReplyDelete
These are so cute! Yay for Olympic fever. I'm going to re-post a few of these photos at Bring the Monkey and link to you, of course. thanks for sharing the fun!ReplyDelete
Have you seen the London Medley of fat quarters over at Keepsake Quilting? I LOVE the fabrics. http://www.keepsakequilting.com/productdetail/6754.htmReplyDelete
I am an Olympic freak!!!!Go USA!!! Love your blocks! :)ReplyDelete
Those are soooo great!! Have you seen Nanette's(Fredas Hive) London quilt in progress? It is terrific - cant wait to see the finished quilt!ReplyDelete
Olympic junkie here too! I really don't know how much blogging is going to be done for me in the next two weeks.ReplyDelete
Yeah, I'm Australian!ReplyDelete
Aussie Aussie Aussie! Oi oi oi!
Love your blocks! Love the Olympics!ReplyDelete
Oh yes I am an Olympic junkie! I am from England so am really loving seeing all the sights on tv! Love your flag blocks, there's just something about red, white and blue :)ReplyDelete
Like the flag blocks, and I like the Olympics. We've been kinda busy with family the last few days so haven't seen as much of the Olympics as I would like, but still a fan, Family is important too!ReplyDelete
These flag blocks are wonderful! I am from slc, too, though now live in Ohio. I lived there for the Olympics and know what you mean by the magic. I wish we were in London no. Someday. I cannot wait to see what you do with your flags.ReplyDelete
Ha! I just bought some of that Dear Stella fabric over the weekend. I didn't get the umbrellas though and I'm regretting it. They had it in oilcloth too -- it was killing me. I'd LOVE to make a rain slicker out of that fabric -- tooooo cute!!!!ReplyDelete
If you're going to indulge the Scottish with both their national flag and the Union Flag, you need to do the England and Wales ones too... :PReplyDelete
Yeah total Olympics nerd here too. I have watched pretty much all of the fencing, archery and shooting so far.
I love that you did a block for the Saltire! I want to do a whole quilt of Saltires someday, much like the Union Jack quilts that are popping up around bloglad ....ReplyDelete
Simply fabulous! We have been watching here when we aren't at baseball games.ReplyDelete
What more could we want? The Doctor! Watching the Olympics 24/7 here. A friend at church is the mom of the coach of the US diving team. She's heading to London soon, lucky her.ReplyDelete
I love London, and the Olympics... And thoroughly enjoyed this post!ReplyDelete
I just love your Union Jack blocks. And that fabric with the red umbrellas--sigh--the best!ReplyDelete
Love your blocks Amy!! :0)ReplyDelete
We too have really enjoyed watching
the Olympics. :0)
I just used the Dear Stella fabric to make a British "flag" (the Union Jack is intimidating!) and a Uruguay flag for my family :) Glad I'm not alone in jumping on the Olympic flag making! Go GB!ReplyDelete
Oh, I am so sleep deprived from watching the Olympics this week! Love your flag blocks & the flag quilt showcased on Generation Q Magazine today.ReplyDelete
I laughed so hard at Mr. Bean playing with the Symphony & running with the 'guys' of Chariots of Fire!! And I was so happy to see that Voldemort was vanquished by the Mary Poppinses!
Your flag blocks are fab! I love the Scottish one for Andy Murray...Mr. Gold!ReplyDelete

National teams striving to make it to the EuroBasket next year are at the business end of the Qualification Round.
There is no room for error in any of the six groups as even the sides that are safely through still have something to play for.
Every result counts, as it affects a team's win/loss percentage.
A team could finish first in a group, yet still end up with a lower ranking for the Final Round next summer than a side that finished second in another yet had a better win/loss percentage.
The top two sides in each of the six groups will progress to the Final Round, as will the four best third-place teams.
Germany, Finland, Georgia and Sweden are among those that can clinch spots in the EuroBasket with wins on Wednesday.
Here is a closer look at the overall scenario.
GROUP AIceland and/or the Slovak Republic (both 1-6) will lose even their slim mathematical chances of fighting for third place if they fall on Wednesday. The former travel to Israel (4-3) and the latter play at Serbia (4-3). Estonia (4-3) are looking to stay in the hunt when they face Montenegro (7-0), the only team who has already qualified from this group, in Podgorica.
GROUP BIf Sweden (3-2) prevail at Azerbaijan, Brad Dean's men will have two victories against their Wednesday hosts and cannot finish below them. And if Germany (5-0), who are at home, also win against Bulgaria later on, not only would the Svetislav Pesic-coached team seal its passage to EuroBasket 2013, but Sweden's as well. Bulgaria and Azerbaijan are both 3-3 so wins for them would keep them in contention for an automatic qualification spot.
GROUP CIf Croatia win at home against Ukraine, they will top the group since they edged the first meeting in Ukraine. If Mike Fratello's squad prevail by two points or more, they would take first place if the results of the two teams in their remaining games are equal. Hungary (2-3) and Austria (2-4) are going into their clash looking to win at all costs. If Hungary win, Austria are out of contention for third place.
GROUP D Georgia (4-1) will be in the Final Round of a EuroBasket for the second time in a row if they overcome Bosnia and Herzegovina (4-2) in Tbilisi. The Georgians won the first meeting by a point in Sarajevo, so another triumph would give them a sweep. Should Georgia win, and if Latvia were to beat the Netherlands later on, the Latvians would only need to win one of their two remaining games to go through, regardless of what Bosnia and Herzegovina do in their last game. That's because Latvia have a better goal differential in the two meetings between the sides.
GROUP ERed-hot Finland (5-0) will advance to the EuroBasket Final Round if they stay unbeaten on Wednesday when they host Poland (4-2). In fact, even if the Finns were to lose to the Poles but win either of their last two games, they would still go though because that would mean they could not finish worse than third in their group with a 6-2 record. In three out of the other five groups, there is not a single team that could finish third with a better record than that. Belgium (3-2) play at Switzerland (2-4) and regard the game a must-win for their chances.
GROUP FIf the Czech Republic (4-2) win on Wednesday at home to Portugal (0-5) and Turkey (3-2) lose at home to already qualified Italy (6-0), the Czechs would have an excellent chance of going through. That's because they won their first game against Turkey by 18 points, and they would only need to protect that margin when the two teams meet next week in order to advance on a tie-breaker.

How and Why the Media Misses the Af-Pak Story
A unique husband and wife team, Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould have reported for decades on the issues and conflicts in Afghanistan and Pakistan. In the spring of 1981 they received the first visas to enter Afghanistan granted to an American TV crew and produced an exclusive news story for the CBS Evening News. They also produced a documentary for PBS, returned in 1983 for ABC Nightline, and later worked under contract to Oliver Stone on a film version of their experience.
In 1989 the Soviet Union finally withdrew its forces from Afghanistan, and the Cold War soon ended with the dissolution of the USSR in 1991. But as civil war followed in Afghanistan, the United States also walked away – and in 1994, a new strain of religious holy warrior called the Taliban arose, sweeping into Afghanistan from Pakistan. By 1998, as the horrors of the Taliban regime began to grab headlines, Fitzgerald and Gould began collaborating with Afghan human rights advocate Sima Wali, filming her return from exile and producing another film.
In the years since 9/11 they continued to follow the AF/Pak story closely, ultimately writing a book entitled I nvisible History: Afghanistan's Untold Story. Their latest effort, Crossing Zero: The AfPak War at the Turning Point of American Empire, examines what they call "the bizarre and often paralyzing contradictions of America's strategy" in the region.
Crossing Zero has been hailed by Daniel Ellsberg as "a ferocious, iron-clad argument about the institutional failure of American foreign policy in Afghanistan and Pakistan," and praised by filmmaker Stone, who noted that Fitzgerald and Gould "have been most courageous in their commitment to telling the truth — and have paid a steep price for it. Their views have never been acceptable to mainstream media in our country, but they deserve accolades." Media reformer Norman Solomon, author of War Made Easy: How Presidents and Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death, called their latest work "a searing expose of distortions that have fundamentally warped U.S. perceptions and actions in the 'AfPak' region," and onetime CIA Senior Soviet Analyst Melvin A. Goodman said it should be "required reading at the National Security Council and the Pentagon."
I recently interviewed the authors about how the media has reported — and misreported — the ongoing story of the "AfPak war" during the past three decades.
Q: In your book you raise difficult questions and inconvenient truths – why hasn't mainstream media done the same in your view?
A: As you say, because it's inconvenient and difficult. Afghanistan was a real crossroads for the American mainstream media, coming on the heels of Vietnam. A lot of journalists and news organizations were being cast in a bad light for allegedly "losing Vietnam" for the United States. Walter Cronkite was reviled in some quarters for giving that famous newscast in February of 1968 calling for a negotiated way out of the American engagement after the Tet offensive.
The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan offered a way out for a lot of budding media stars, who wanted to avoid the inconvenient truths about Vietnam and surf the incoming wave that became the "Reagan Revolution." Dan Rather inaugurated his ascension to the coveted CBS News anchor chair as Cronkite's replacement with his Inside Afghanistan special, which established the "Russia's Vietnam" narrative. They kept framing the narrative to fit the story line… the communist government in Kabul was supposed to collapse as soon as the Russians left, just the way the anti-communist government in Saigon did when the US pulled out. But of course that didn't happen. The Afghan communists ran the country for three more years until Boris Yeltsin cut off their funding and Afghanistan then descended into chaos.
