NisaChicago, ILFinally Something That WorksI have suffered from unsightly ingrown hairs for over 7 years. This wouldnt be a problem for some men but since Im a woman this is a definite no no! Because of an ovarion disorder I find myself having to wax and sometimes shave in order to get rid of the hair on my face and chest. Due to the everyday routine my skin was starting to look horrible. I cant remember how I found this website so I will just say that through many days of prayer God pointed me in the right direction and I found this product that is imazing. My skin looks so much better and feels so much better. I am more confident than ever and I feel like a woman again.posted Nov 28, 2006Link to this post
JordanAtlantaNot Badits ok. . . i wouldnt buy it again. its kinda over rated!!!posted Nov 28, 2006Link to this post
DontneettoknowBrooklyn, NYOmg!I had a bottle without directions and instructions sent to me and i felt like hmm its weird. Now i see why i had that bad vibe. First of all i never have been alergic to penicilin and all it says on a bottle is if you allergic to it dont use it, now like i said not they i knew that. Basically after 2-3 day use i burned first layer of my skin in my bikini area and it is bad....it seems like i went to tan and i got burned and now my skin is coming off....its itching bad and now it is even more sensetive then it was which mean i will be even more sensetive and opened for more razor bumps and ingrown hair. Thanks to Solution 2....if i still had a chance to return this product i would of done that without thinking twice.posted Nov 28, 2006Link to this post
SuzyThe BestI had always used Tend-skin, which was still effective, but this was less expensive and still worked just a good.I have really dark hair so I am really prone to ingrown hair and bumps. The applicator was nice too.posted Nov 27, 2006Link to this post
KookieTucson, AZBought It. Used It. Like ItIve been a Tend Skin user for about 5 years now and have gotten used to it and while I dont like it per se, it does work. I tried Solution 2 and it works just as well if not better and the applicator is a significant improvement over the cotton ball technique situation I had to use.posted Sep 27, 2006Link to this post
KookieTucson, AZSimply Awesome!I have had issues with razor burn under my arms especially in the summer time. I gave this a shot because the roller ball reminded me of my antiperspirant. I am really impressed with how well it works and it rolls on nicely too. Also, I had concerns about staining on my clothing and I am happy to say that it doesnt stain at all and is perfectly clear!posted Sep 27, 2006Link to this post
KookieTucson, AZAll The Girls In The Office Use ItFor the record, my assistant was the one who introduced the office to this amazing little product. She used it and the next week couldnt stop talking about it. I ordered it and then I couldnt stop talking about it.....now, all the women in the office use it and we all LOVE it. It works perfectly and travels well and wont leak in your bag either.posted Sep 27, 2006Link to this post

If you don't like what's out there, make something better. That's the philosophy of Somme Institute. The founders were disappointed that most of the skin care products they tested didn't deliver on their promises - so they assembled a team of researchers, dermatologists and skin care specialists to "crack the code" and find out what ingredients really would deliver smoother, clearer and more youthful skin. After more than seven years of testing on real people, this team of masterminds developed technology called MDT5 that speeds delivery of skin-nourishing vitamins and protein into the deeper layers of the skin – and Somme Institute was born. Since skin-reparative vitamins and other ingredients can't work their magic unless they can penetrate, Somme Institute's products really do "deliver."

Working for me - 7/26/2014 10:13:14 AM First of all i would like to say that this line is meant to be used all together so it is hard to review just the transport pads. I have noticed some negative reviews for one product or the other, and i wouldn't recommend using them individually..just my opinion. I chose this product because after years of great skin with no issues i started experiencing horrible adult acne and some sun damage/pigmentation. I tried so many things to help with no luck. what i liked about the line is that it helps with acne, sun damage and aging, and its hard to find a product line that is all in one. here is my breakdown of how my experience has been with this line. week 1: acne cleared up immediately week 2: started to break out a little, but pimples were small. i could tell things were coming out of my skin that needed to. week 3: my skin looked a bit dry and lifeless week 4: my breakouts have stopped and my skin looks amazing, my sun damage is even starting to lighten a little... so far so good! I highly recommend trying this, i think you can get away with just the transport, serum, and a-bomb, but i personally really love the cleanser and some form of sun screen is a must as the transport pads can be intense.At least I only paid for the travel size. - 7/1/2014 10:25:42 PM Recently, after undergoing a minor cosmetic procedure, I was instructed to use only a gentle cleanser for ten days. As that meant my beloved Jan Marini bioglycolic was off the table (or vanity, I suppose) I decided to pull out the travel size of this that I had set aside for emergency situations. I have a fairly standard set of steps that I follow when cleansing. Basically, apply the cleanser to dry skin, add a little water, "lather," let sit a few minutes whilst getting the shower started, then add a little more water, massage around (adding a little more product of deemed necessary), and rinse well. After all that, a process that SHOULD leave my face clean (even if not squeaking), I stepped out, looked in the mirror, and was dismayed to see makeup still on my face. I'm not talking impossible-to-remove waterproof mascara. I mean face makeup...the ONE THING a face cleanser should remove. So. I did it all again in the sink this time, right in front if the mirror, determined to wash it all away. No luck. Not only that, but I felt a yucky, rubbery residue left behind. Luckily for me, I ADORE the rest of the Somme line and broke out my Transport Pads to take care of what the cleanser couldn't. Too bad it took two whole pads before the makeup was finally demolished. To sum it up, seeing as it's marketed as a cleanser but doesn't actually CLEAN, I can't review this highly or recommend. Two stars, however, as at least it doesn't smell like a cat box and didn't turn me into a toad. I suppose it could always be worse.I love this entire line - 2/7/2014 6:16:34 AM Somme Institute products have my skin looking the best. When I first used this line I wasn't as happy with it because the serum and A-Bomb left my skin feeling sticky. No more. The key is to use them sparingly. I love the cleanser. It's very gentle and smells incredible.Harsh - 9/18/2013 2:44:27 PM I have this extremely sensitive skin so it's too harsh to me. It literally burns on my skin. But it does clean. So that's the tradeoff you might wanna think about.Texture & Smell are great! - 6/4/2013 2:25:28 PM I'm still young so turkey neck is not a problem for me. I just know that the neck is often neglected in skincare regimes. And seeing as how I'm a "preventer", rather than a "fixer", I use the neck cream. And I must say that I do enjoy seeing it in the mirror! It smells wonderful, and the texture is on the thicker side, which I like. Additionally, the MDT5 technology is probably working to remove my sun damage from underneath the skin, which I can't see anyway, but it's good to know that it's diminishing.Removes all your junk. - 6/3/2013 10:02:33 AM Seriously. It does. I love using these at night when I truly get to see how much dirt they took off my face. The pads are soaked in glycolic acid so you know it works to exfoliate your skin. It really works like a makeup remover too, just as long as you don't get it in you eye. Because ouch. Unfortunately I did break out when I started using it because all my clogged pores basically declogged themselves and all the nastiness came to the surface. The breakouts lasted a while, but it was worth it in the long run.I'm foundation free!!! - 6/3/2013 9:57:54 AM Very happy to say that I don't need to wear foundation anymore. I had a lot of acne scars/marks from before and I still do. But it significantly reduced their appearance. I had a huge red spot on my nose for years and it lightened it a whole lot. I don't hate looking at my nose anymore!not for sensitive skin! - 4/7/2013 9:30:53 AM I liked the idea of exfoliating without abrasion, these however were much too strong for me. I had a lot of itching and stinging which i expected from the glycolic in them. I used them twice a week, otherwise it was just too much for me. Gifted them to my mother in law, she doesn't have sensitive skin.Worth it! - 2/3/2013 6:01:02 PM Great product. I have sensitive skin and my skin is so much better after starting the Somme line. I love it!FANTASTIC-ELASTIC Skin Again! - 6/25/2012 7:11:46 AM This clear liquid absolutely gives my skin a smoother appearance when used with their other products. everyone keeps commenting on how good I look - The Somme product line is the ONLY new thing I'm doing for myself and I'm thrilled with the results! -
Learn More About Somme Institute
When creating the Somme Institute collection, the research team knew that better technologies were needed to determine just how the skin was affected by environmental damage. State-of-the-art ultraviolet photography was used to view every layer of skin, studying where damage was most noticeable and how it manifested itself. After examining countless photographs, the team determined that the majority of the damage to the skin that was responsible for the appearance of signs of aging was in the middle layer of tissue. The problem was that ordinary skin care products only delivered ingredients to the top level of skin, leaving the rest of the tissue unaffected. This greatly limited how well the products could actually address environmental damage.
With the development of Molecular Dispersion Technology 5 or MDT5, Somme Institute has created a line of skin care products that can actually live up to their promises because they are capable of reaching the tissue that needs nourishment the most. The complex is a combination of vitamins A, B3, B5, C and E attached to a protein engineered to target the receptors in skin cells in the middle layer of tissue. This allows for enhanced absorption and treats the skin to nutrients that help it resist environmental damage while gradually rejuvenating damaged cells.
The Somme Institute skincare collection includes solutions for a variety of concerns. Whether your biggest worry is signs of aging, frequent acne breakouts or skin discoloration, there are formulas in the range to help you beautify your complexion.

Washington Redskins wide receiver Josh Morgan works out prior to a preseason game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. / Kim Klement, USA TODAY Sports
WASHINGTON - The Washington Redskins went about business as usual Monday in Ashburn, but the news of the shooting at the Navy Yard weighed heavily on their minds.
For one player, Receiver Josh Morgan, his thoughts were focused on something other than football.
Morgan's mom and god mother both work at the Navy Yard and were there Monday morning when everything unfolded.
By the time he had finished practice with his team in Ashburn around noon, Josh still had not heard from his mom, LaWanda Ware, who works in the same building and on the same floor that the shootings took place.
Talking to reporters, Josh said, "My godmother works in the other building. She's doing okay. But I haven't heard from my mother yet. I called like 30 times. Nobody has been able to get into contact with her. We're just praying and hoping everything is OK."
For Josh and his family however, those types of prayers have become all too familiar.
"Unfortunately it's not the first time. It's kind happened in 9/11 - she was at the Pentagon then. It happened to me when I was at Virginia Tech. With the shooting down there. We're kind of too familiar with it unfortunately."
Lawanda worked at the Pentagon when the plane crashed into the building on 9/11 and Josh couldn't reach her then either.
Also, Josh was a junior at Virginia Tech when Seung-Hui Cho's went on a shooting spree in Blacksburg, Va., that killed 32 people.
But thankfully, just like in 2001 and 2007, this story has a happy ending. A cousin finally got in touch with Lawanda and informed Josh, via Twitter, that she was safe.

So it's not totally wordless, but I wan't something catchy. Love this post on gluten-free tailgating!
From SheKnows.com read it HERE.
Something I didn't share all that often before is my love for cooking – I am the most happy when I am in my kitchen creating a new meal, experimenting with ingredients and transforming the meals that I grew up with to be gluten-free and healthier. Memories of standing on a chair in the kitchen "helping" my mom cook flood my mind and the stress of work and life seems to melt away.
I read so many blogs and they are all decorated with these beautiful pictures of ingredients, finished recipes, and happy families enjoying these meals. I am terrible at photography – all the pictures I take are snapped on my iPhone and are often uploaded late at night with a cup of coffee in hand. Also, I write recipes for myself just like my mom taught me i.e. "two handfuls of rosemary, 1 package of squash, a capful of vanilla extract." You have to bare with me as I try my hand a sharing my recipes and how I share them. Feel free to send me feedback on ways to make my recipes easier to read and understand.
So, in the vein of Football and tailgating I am taking one of my favorite things ever - buffalo wings – and getting rid of all the yuck and making it into a healthy and yummy dip for your next football party. It's a vegan dip with a cauliflower base. You can thank me later.
Vegetables, GF crackers, GF Pretzels
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets until fork tender – about 3 to 5 minutes.
Drain and transfer the cooked cauliflower to your food processer – it doesn't have to be some wild expensive food processor. All my fancy kitchen tools have been in storage for the past year, so I just use my Cuisinart mini hot pink food processor. Add the garlic and pulse until combined.
Add the vegan cream cheese and pulse until almost smooth.
Add the diaya cheese, cayenne pepper, and hot sauce and process until smooth – add more cayenne pepper or hot sauce to your liking.
Transfer to a baking dish, and garnish with more cayenne pepper if desired. (I like mine spicy!)
Bake for 30 minutes until hot and bubbly – serve hot with veggies and crackers. I like celery the best!
Leave comments with your questions and I'll do my best to answer them! Have a great Tuesday!

I need some help in understanding the FED's money creating process and how QE purchase of US Bonds eventually will come to an end. I have read that some people fear the 'unwinding' of QE purchases while others say FED will simply hold bonds to maturity. How does the FED not have to sell those bonds? Please be kind. I have no axe to grind here, just an old fart trying to understand the process.
The Fed is discouraging savers by paying them negative interest rates. At the same time the goal of 2% inflation, which in fact is much more out of pocket, further cuts into saved funds. This encourages speculation on the markets and borrowing to try and maintain the consumer economy. The Fed encourages debtors and punishes savers. Not a happy state for the solid citizens that plan way ahead.
The printing of money is one thing and servicing debt is another. The amount of money in circulation is relative to the size of the GDP. The OECD (primarily comprising of the US, Western Europe and Japan) have more printed money than their GDP size warrants.
Heard of a sick patient dying because of an overdose of medicine? Well, looks like that in the case of US. My guess is that it will implode by 2016!

In an effort to better my understanding, can you cross-reference QE with the Federal Debt? Is it the spending that's causing the rise in the debt or the Fed buying Treasuries that causes the debt to rise? When new Treasuries are sold doesn't the Federal Debt rise?
I'm guessing the Fed buying Treasuries is giving the government money to spend, but the government, through the Treasury, will pay the Fed interest on their investment, and then the Fed will pay that interest back to the Treasury. And this is supposed to keep borrowing costs low so that the "job-creators" can borrow to invest in the economy? Isn't it easier for the "job-creators" to take that cheap money and make bets?
Am I way off, or do I have simple-minded understanding of the situation?
Actually the two are completely separate. The US federal debt is reliant on federal spending. The treasury issues bonds to fund those expenses. So even if the fed did not buy treasuries, there would be no impact in net federal debt (unless you count interest rates). In this instant the fed is just like another bank or investor buying treasuries for a particular purpose (in the Fed's case to achieve monetary policy and reduce rates).
The fed buying treasuries, keeps interest rates low, that in theory is supposed to stimulate growth by reducing "cost of capital" so its more attractive to borrow and do stuff with the money like buy machines, improve productivity or start a new business. Of course this is an ideal situation, and yes its easier to borrow money and make bets, but the rates are low cuz its a recession, or low growth so.. not a lot of profitable bets to make, and they all come with their own risks.
Another one of those things being the 'de facto' world currency buys us in the USA. "It' good to be the King". As to moving back to the 'gold standard'... a friend of mine who is an economics professor as well as having a masters in math 'ran the numbers' and said IF the USA and ONLY the USA moved back to the 'gold standard' the price of one ounce of 999 fine? $43,850 (based on amount of USD in circulation and existing amount of gold on the market at the time combined with amount held in all national reserves known to exist). So... yeah... that would work. People tend to forget gold isn't just used for 'currency' and 'jewelry' but has industrial applications as well... increase of nearly 30 fold overnight? Not going to happen.
QE work like a crucially ill patient needs life support system.
The day QE stop, the US economy will head for stagnation and then collapse under the debt it has picked up by printing money. My guess is 2016.
Best wishes
Kishore Nair from Mumbai
The Fed makes its money much as most banks do: from the spread between the return on its assets and the interest paid on its liabilities.
This is a meaningless statement. The FED makes money much as EVERY counterfeiter does. By creating money out of nothing.
Banks 'create' money from nothing.
Comment from below -- 'We need a gold standard to protect us from wanton printing. It worked for our ancestors.'
Ha-ha, we can't have a discussion of the US Fed without the totally idiotic idea of 'reverting' to the gold standard or the 'debasement' of our currency. I haven't read far enough to see the other foolish idea of the Fed as a 100 year old conspiracy. But somebody below referred to the 'rabbis' of wall street -- a reference to another historically wacko conspiracy theory. All such references, and similar are not serious, and usually made by marginalized individuals with no real grip on facts. This is unfortunate for a serious discussion of a really difficult situation. TE needs to do some monitoring here.
"rab·bi /ˈræbaɪ/ Show Spelled [rab-ahy] Show IPA
noun, plural rab·bis.
5. Slang. a personal patron or adviser, as in business."
The world did survive on a precious metal-based currency system for thousands of years. The un-tenability of that kind of system became apparent with the Industrial Revolution, when output of goods and services increased at a far faster rate than the supply of such metals - inherently deflationary, with all that implies.
Evolution to a fiat-money system was the only alternative, but the urge to print one's way out of the consequences of one's mistakes has proven irresistible - inherently inflationary.
A fiat-money system in which supply is constrained to the potential output of the economy could theoretically 'work' - but then, what fun would it be to be a Fed-boss or a macro-economist?
and the reference is ...? Out of a slew of slang words with the same meaning, you use the most inflamatory...? You and Berlusconi (see elsewhere on this site)
The term is widely used on The Street - but you know that, don't you?
The 'street' uses a lot of slang -- slang is not really a 'term' (show me a contract that uses 'rabbi' to refer to anyone). The 'term' muppet is another deragatory slang usage that is inappropriate except when you want to communicate a negative connotation. Your use of rabbi here is pretty inappropriate. It and your description of the 'eveolution to a flat-money system' reeks of the kind of people I was criticizing. Those with little understanding of the reality of the situation.
Personal attacks without anything substantive to accompany them make you a person worthy of 'criticizing', don't they?
OBTW - I can spell 'evolution' better than you can, too.
'The world did survive on a precious metal-based currency system for thousands of years'
You said it, and well, 'the world' did survive, as in humans did not become extinct. Mismanagement and debasement of currencies occurred in many societies and economies throughout those 'thousands of years' -- causing upheaval and misery. And these were not only 'mistakes', but all were caused by a basic human fact -- we are all fallible, and over time, the tendency for error or corruption has always existed.
Yes, maybe Bernanke and his crew are making another mistake. This article discusses that possibility informatively. Greenspan made mistakes. They also contributed a lot to some kind of continuity and stability. Do you think they were corrupt or do you simply have a differing economic theory for your analysis. I prefer them and the current system (warts and all) to unrealistic, irrational proposals based on worse, more fallible theories that fail to understand history, and are usually promoted by people with such a derogatory attitude towards others.
After reviewing your recent posting record, your habitual practice of ad hominem attacks and little else make you not a fit person for me or any other TE commenter to engage in conversation. Far as I'm concerned - you don't exist.
Thank you for proving my point...!
Actually while you would never see the term 'rabbi' used in a contract it is a widely used 'buzz/slang' term. It doesn't have derogatory connotations either. It is used to mean 'someone wise in the ways of that world'. In the Navy they are called 'Sea Daddy', in the Police forces they are sometimes called 'Uncles' although FBI also uses the term 'rabbi' as frequently a not to indicate a 'wise one'. Whatever as it really isn't relevant to the topic of this thread, but just wanted to point out different industries use terms differently and occasionally in a derogatory fashion in one and a 'positive' fashion in another. As to myself... In the IT world I'm called an 'Uber Geek'. Just saying...

Ubergeek is fine, nicknames and slang are fine too. Like I said, there are certainly several other slang references to 'wise old man' in the banking industry that are fine. It is also ok to paint the entire banking elite in derogatory terms, tho many well run banks did not contribute to the crisis discussed in the article. There was a huge bubble and economic bust that the 'industry' contributed to. There are reasonable critics of the feds actions, as discussed in the article.
But a Jewish reference in the banking context is highly suspect at all times. A simple quick historical research makes this obviously suspect, especially from a comment that calls 'officials' corrupt and who's acts should therefore be 'paid for in blood' (his words). 'Jewish bankers' and 'Jewish conspiracies' have been stupidly blamed for so much historically that warning bells should ring for this clear reference to the same racist conspiracy theories. There are many poorly reasoned anti-fed arguments and the specific type of totally unfounded 'corruption' claims, as those stated in this guy's comment, based as they are on false historical statements (like the one I discussed above) and highly suspect fringe economic theories -- these are bad enough. But they are often promoted with this kind of 'innocent', hidden anti-Semitism or other simple prejudice. These fallacious arguments with racist overlay are indeed something to comment about in strong terms. And this guy seems to have disliked getting called out.
Theory aside, all money that a central bank creates is seigniorage, not just the interest on it. Or do you think that in time all this money will be "fairly sterilized", i. e. exchanged for an adequate amount of meaningful goods (compared to what the money bought when it was issued)?
Financial crisis meant that very rich men with strong ties to the FED were in risk of becoming poor men. This could not be allowed, so they keep redistributing wealth towards themselves by means of creating money, and will do so as long as the risk persists (that is their overriding concern) or their money is no longer accepted in trade exchanges.
Good conversation so far, gang, and as usual Buttercup gets the gold star for making the best points in the fewest words. Still, even she misses what is IMO the most important component of the matter - the ethical corruption that permeates it.
The Fed won't stop QE (even if inflation were to hit double-digits) until it has bought all the worthless MBS stuff off the balance sheets of its past and future paymasters on The Street. There are tons of losses to be realized on these items and no effort will be spared to make sure that it is muppet-taxpayers/citizens who eat that, not rabbis on The Street. Beyond attaining that single goal, nothing else really matters to them.
You don't have to think for very long at all to answer the question - 'just who are these (corrupt) bureaucrats really working for (besides themselves)?'
Betrayal and duplicity on this scale must be paid for in blood IMO – there is no alternative; Wall Street owns the entire legal/governmental system now.
If the Federal Reserve system is forbidden to make and keep a profit, it can't have a reserve for "losing money"! This means decline in value of the Fed's assets are suppressed for policy and operations purposes. The Fed is not a real bank! It is a money machine. The money supply or contraction is NOT market driven because the Fed has no profit nor loss it has to maximize or minimize. It is remarkable this command economy entity has worked so well for so long. Like every Golden Goose, it's longevity is imperiled when Debt Financing and money creation keeps getting pushed to ever greater limits.
As it comes to be, the QE has its downsides, but hey! it works! - That's what the article mainly tells us. Nevertheless, there is a real risk to get into stagflation, mainly because of the incessant money making which will, in the short term and as we've seen in the 2000's, get the dollar way down from its altar. Another way to face the slow recovering must be studied.
Under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), a bank must mark to market its liabilities and its assets. So these putative losses will not only occur when this paper is sold but will be across the Fed's balance sheet as markets adjust. And it is really hard to see that the value of this paper might increase. Of course, expecting a government entity to comply with GAAP would be a step too far.
It is just nuts for the Fed to let banks borrow money at .25 percent and then buy treasuries that pay then a guaranteed profit. That is just a backhand way of subsidizing the banks with taxpayer money.
If banks need government money to invest in the economy, fine, they are at least performing a management function for their "free" money.
If the economy need new cash and the feds need money they might as well print it and loan it to themselves and cut out the banks who perform no service for their risk free profit.
You have it backwards, FED borrows from banks at .25% and then buys treasuries for FED profits.
Wrong! There are two rates the window rate 0.25% at which banks borrow money from each other, and the "discount rate" at which banks borrow from the Fed. Without the discount rate or quantitative easing, the money supply would not grow.
The primary discount rate is now 0.75%. So when a big bank borrows from the Fed at .75% and then buys 30 year treasuries at the current rate of 3.2%. They get to keep the difference. Hell, if you get money at 0.75% and you can't find borrowers who pay you a profit then you should get out of the business.
The bankers made big profits from the Real Estate bubble and when that burst and sucked up their reserves the Federal Government has been bailing them out by having the banks act as risk free middle men, when the government borrows money from itself.
Sometimes I wish we could send critics of central banking back in time to live through a financial crisis counterfactual in which the Fed did nothing to respond.
I wish we could send proponents of central banks back in time to see the destruction wrought upon society from the debasement of their currency.
Debasement of currency is a fact of life with a usury system and hoardable currency.
Funny historical "usurius" interest rates were essentially the same as they are today. So we got no improvement in credit availability, massive disotritions, and inflation. Sounds like a fair trade.

... in which the federal reserve, in conjuction with the government's laws of legal tender, force their citizens to participate.
Yes, but that's part of the definition of money. As a unit of exchange it is by necessity a construct of society.
What is never discussed are ways to change the characteristics of money and finance so as to reduce or eliminate the distortions, and boom busts created by the latter.
I use the term usury to refer to interest. Regardless of era, intererest and money has a chaotic dynamic, leading to defaults. Invariably interest results in an over commitment of promises on money/work/tangible goods to the lender. Lenders end up with too much of a society 'wealth' and the entire system seizes.
Debt forgiveness existed even in biblical times, and both Christianity and Islam had strong injunctions against usury exactly as a reaction to its down sides.
Money doesn't create booms or busts, those are the result of human nature. You can't eliminate them but the fed can conceal them by printing money.
This only ensures that the next cycle will be bigger though, and when the fed has destroyed the currency through concurrent debasement and can't print any more then the bust will come and it will be catastrophic.
Money is a human artifact. The qualities we ascribe to it give it the characteristics that motivate humans in certain ways.
The Fed hasn't printed currency, they just type numbers into accounts. I believe currency accounts for some small fraction of all the 'money' in the economy, something like 5%. Electronic transactions have done to paper currency, what paper currency did to the gold that backed them. And banks have huge incentive to move the means of exchange away from currency.
In any case, fiat currency has not offered a solution to boom/ busts, it just modifies a bit the amplitude and frequency a bit, so we agree to a point. However, what destroys the value of money is interest on lent money.
The absurdity of this discussion amazed me. Imagine for a second I am can print my own money, with which I can keep bidding the price up of everything priced in my money. "LOOK I AM PAYING $10 monopoly bucks for my debt!" "NOW I AM PAYING $11" "$12" Wow, I am the best investor in the world, look at all my profits. That is until, people look you square in the eye and say "so what, I don't want your monopoly bucks for my goods" and then my account stops being mark to market and is valued at par.
Would you rather let unemployment stagnate at 8-10%?
Focus, how does printing money help unemployment? It will just create inflation to add to your stagnating 8-10% unemployment. Have you heard about the term stagfation?
I dont see any inflation problems.
Here u r Q, imagine you die tomorrow... imagine the sky is falling... imagine you are living in an imaginary world that nobody else is living in. Most Fed critics like to imagine their criticism is based on reality but they are not really functioning in the same world as the rest of us. Life isn't a theoretical question...
"I dont see any inflation problems." You will, and when you do, you will most likely blame someone other than the Fed.

The Federal Reserve is part of the US Government, and the US Government is the monopoly issuer of US currency. The FR could always drain reserves from the banking system: they could simply issue their own debt, and pay that debt with the money-creating ability of the FR. And why would the FR ever have to sell financial assets it doesn't want to?
This is not a new development. Today, the FR pays interest to banks for excess reserves that the banks hold at the FR. This is simply a certificate of deposit of very short duration - of only one day. What prevents the FR from offering CDs of other durations, such as three month, six month, one year, ten year, thirty year - and use the sales to absorb reserves and meet the FR's interest rate policy goals? The FR can always pay the notes on these since they are part of a government that controls the currency.
The FR can issue unliminted quantities of FR notes, and is part of a US government that creates money. Taking a loss is an accounting fiction when you are part of a government that creates all dollars in existence.
If QE works, demand will pick up, wages will pick up, employment will pick up, interest rates will pick up and the Fed and the BoE and the Bank of Japan and the ECB will all become insolvent. Unfortunately for the people but fortunately for central bankers QE will not work. Governments will eventually have no choice but to retake their duty to create money and spend it so that they inject it directly into the circulation rather than into capital markets.
Do you mean solvent rather than insolvent?
There is a graph that really does concern one regardless of the efficacy of QE:
"the losses would occur only once the economy was healthy enough to require higher interest rates" -- A lot of wishful thinking in this article.
The mere mention of rising interest rates will send the economy into a tailspin, any expectation of the fed selling assets will collapse the bond market.
The fed has now placed itself between a rock and a hard place. Soon it will have to choose between destroying the dollar to save the bond market or saving the dollar and letting the bond market implode.

Chadwicks Signature!
Jersey Knit Striped Long Skirt: One of the newest pieces in our collection of mix-and-match Jersey Knit Separates. This skirt features an A-line shape and flattering mitered stripes in our signature, easy-care, easy-wear jersey knit!
Read what customers are saying about this product:
Rating: 4.00 out of 3 votes cast
Beautiful Fabric!
Fabric is sooo soft and flowing, and the "mitered" stripes are very slimming. I really love that this skirt has a flat elastic waistband instead of a bunchy elastic waist you sometimes see on things. Makes for a much smoother fit. I will say this skirt is very long! I'm borderline petite (5'4"). So if you're tall, this skirt will be great on you! But if you're short, plan to hike it up a bit on the waist or wear heels. It's worth it!

A favorite!
This skirt is very soft and lightweight. Perfect for summertime! Washes nicely and doesn't wrinkle.

I purchased this skirt recently and was disappointed by it. The material was very thin. It is almost see-through. And after wearing it just twice, it developed a small tear in it.

Courtesy of Wikipedia :
A stinger is a short clip that appears after some or all of the closing credits of a film have run. It is usually either included for humor (where it may be called a "stinger gag") or to set up a possible sequel, as well as to inspire the audience to stay through the credits during the theatrical release.
A few horror films over the years have utilized the power of the stinger and I thought it'd be fun to take a look at some of those. Through my research for this post I stumbled across a site called Movie Stingers, which helped me out a bit, so big thanks goes out to those guys. If you ever want to know if a certain movie has a stinger attached to the tail end of it, head over to MovieStingers.com! And thanks also to Masters of the Universe for giving me my first, and probably best, stinger experience!
Cabin Fever
Cabin Fever of course ends with that old white bearded dude at the convenience store handing a gun over to his "niggas". Well after the end credits, we're treated to one last line of dialogue from the ghetto backwoods Santa Claus :
Eli Roth also had little stingers tacked on to the ends of Hostel and Hostel Part 2. Both replayed small bits of dialogue heard earlier in the film.
House On Haunted Hill (1999)
Check out some grainy film footage showing the patients of the Vannacutt Psychiatric Institute operating on Steven & Evelyn Price's bodies.
Lost Boys 2 : The Tribe
Those who thought Corey Haim was totally excised from LB 2, fear not! Midway through the end credits, a vampiric Haim appears alongside his fellow Corey!
Planet Terror
The little boy who shoots his own head off in Planet Terror was played by Rebel Rodriguez, director Robert Rodriguez' son. Being that he was only 7 at the time, Rodriguez never actually told Rebel that he died in the film. The body shown after the gunshot is heard was a dummy and alternate scenes were filmed where Rebel lives and makes it all the way to the end. These are the scenes that were in the cut that Robert showed to his young son. After the end credits there's a brief shot of Rebel on the beach with his pets, which of course didn't end up in the final film being that Rebel acccidently offs himself in the finished version. Rodriguez says that someday he will have to break the news to his son that not only is Santa not real but that he, Rebel, actually died in Planet Terror too!
Return To House On Haunted Hill
It is discovered in Return, which is actually a fun flick, that a thing called the Baphomet Idol is the source of evil in the titular house on Haunted Hill. If it is taken out of the house, all will go back to normal. At the end of the film, the idol is shoved down a storm drain and flushed out of the house. Where does it end up and who, if anyone, ends up finding it? This end credits sequence explains that as well as provides some added T&A!
See No Evil
This is one of my personal faves. As if Kane's awesome death scene at the end of See No Evil wasn't enough to make ya think that maybe the last hour and a half of your life wasn't a total waste, it gets even worse for the albino pro wrestler! My apologies for the piss (no pun intended) poor quality of this clip. The DVD wouldn't let me pull video from it so I had to bust out the ole camcorder and as you can tell, i'm only a few shakes per minute shy of Michael J. Fox.
You didn't really think the alien creature died off with the implosion of Grant Grant, did ya? Who's next to feel its wrath? Check out this clip to find out!
Wrong Turn
This is another one that occurs midway through the end credits, showing that the mutants are still very much alive and as evil and ugly as ever!
There is an after the credit sequence from Jeepers Creepers that I was gonna upload but ultimately didn't think it was worth it. It's merely a second long clip of the Creeper's truck zooming past the screen. Pretty sure you can imagine that in your head without the use of visual aids.
If anyone knows of any others that i've missed, leave a comment and let me know!

The United Federation of Planets (abbreviated as UFP and commonly referred to as the Federation) was an interstellar federal republic, composed of planetary governments that agreed to exist semi-autonomously under a single central government based on the principles of universal liberty, rights, and equality, and to share their knowledge and resources in peaceful cooperation and space exploration. (TOS: "Arena", "A Taste of Armageddon"; DS9: "Battle Lines"; VOY: "Innocence"; Star Trek: First Contact)
One of the most powerful interstellar states in known space, it encompassed 8,000 light years. The total number of formal member worlds was over one hundred and fifty. (Star Trek: First Contact)
Unlike its imperial rivals, who derived power from a single species subjugating other races, (TOS: "Errand of Mercy"; Star Trek Nemesis; ENT: "United") the Federation's various member worlds joined willingly (TNG: "Attached"; DS9: "Emissary", "Rapture") and were equals in the Federation's democratic society. (DS9: "Paradise Lost"; VOY: "Author, Author") The Federation Starfleet was incorporated to maintain exploratory, scientific, diplomatic, and defense functions. (TOS: "The Cage", "Where No Man Has Gone Before", "Journey to Babel")
In the alternate reality, Captain Christopher Pike described the Federation as a "peacekeeping and humanitarian armada." (Star Trek)
- Main article: Federation history
The Federation was founded in San Francisco, Earth in 2161. (TNG: "The Outcast"; ENT: "Zero Hour", "These Are the Voyages...") The seeds of the Federation were planted during the Babel Crisis of 2154, during which a temporary alliance was formed to search for a Romulan drone-ship preying on local vessels. It was this that first brought together the four species that would found the Federation: Humans, Vulcans, Andorians, and Tellarites. (ENT: "United") After the crisis, these four species remained together, founding the precursor to the Federation, called the Coalition of Planets, a year later. Other species soon joined: the Denobulans, the Rigelians, the Coridanites, and several others. (ENT: "Demons") Over the next several years, the ties between the members of the Coalition strengthened and became more structured, until, finally, in 2161, the Coalition became the Federation. (ENT: "These Are the Voyages...")
Although the Federation's intentions were peaceful, around it were other, more belligerent powers such as the Klingon and Romulan Empires. As it expanded through the admittance of more and more worlds, it came into conflict with these powers. In the 23rd century, its main adversary was the Klingon Empire, with war briefly erupting between the two in 2267, before being halted by the Organians. (TOS: "Errand of Mercy") However, tensions eased considerably towards the end of the century, with the Khitomer Conference of 2293 being a substantial turning point. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country) This conference saw the signing of the Khitomer Accords, which effectively ended hostile relations.
At the start of the 24th century, the Federation began an unprecedented period of peaceful exploration of the galaxy, free of major conflicts, as its main adversary of the previous century, the Klingon Empire, was now at peace with it. However, relations with the Romulans remained hostile, albeit at a low, 'cold war' level. There was also a series of local conflicts in the late 2340s, as the Federation came into contact with other militant races, such as the Cardassians, the Talarians, the Tholians and the Tzenkethi.
In the alternate timeline created by the disappearance of the USS Enterprise-C into a temporal rift, the Federation became embroiled in a war with the Klingon Empire that lasted until at least 2366. (TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise")
Then, however, the period of peaceful exploration came to an abrupt end. In 2365, the Federation encountered its single worst threat, in the cybernetic pseudo-race known as the Borg. One of the most powerful and destructive forces in the entire galaxy, the Borg invaded the Federation twice within less than a decade. They were unlike anything the Federation had ever encountered, and were only foiled by chance and resourcefulness. The Federation was thus schooled in the fact that, in the vast, unexplored reaches of the galaxy beyond what they knew, there were threats that they could not even imagine. (TNG: "Q Who", "The Best of Both Worlds", "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II"; Star Trek: First Contact)
Then, in 2370, contact was made with the Dominion, the predominant ruling power over much of the Gamma Quadrant. After numerous skirmishes, misfortunes suffered by the Cardassian Union allowed for their eventual incorporation into the Dominion, and the subsequent Dominion invasion of the Alpha Quadrant. The Dominion/Cardassian forces were also joined by the reclusive but immensely powerful race known as the Breen. The ensuing war was the greatest crisis to be faced by the Federation, with the Federation forming an alliance with the Klingons and Romulans to defeat the Dominion. Although the Alliance eventually emerged victorious, many of the Federation's important member worlds, such as Betazed, Coridan, and Benzar, had been temporarily occupied before the Dominion's offensive could be turned back. Thousands of Federation Starfleet vessels and millions of lives were lost, in what turned out be, as of the late 24th century, the bloodiest conflict in Federation history. (DS9: "By Inferno's Light", et al.) The most devastating and demoralizing offensive occurred in 2375, when the Breen hit the Federation at its heart, with a surprise attack on Starfleet Headquarters on Earth. (DS9: "The Changing Face of Evil")
However, the aftermath of the Dominion and Borg invasions allowed the Federation to establish new relations with many of its former adversaries, the Romulans in particular. In 2379, cooperation took place between the crew of a Federation Starfleet vessel, the USS Enterprise-E, and Romulan forces to defeat the Reman Praetor Shinzon, whose actions would have destroyed both Earth and the Romulan Star Empire. It was hoped that this would mark the beginning of an end to hostility between the Federation and the Romulan Star Empire, marking the beginnings of détente with a traditional enemy of the Federation. (Star Trek Nemesis)
In at least one version of the 26th century, the Klingon Empire and races such as the Ithenites and Xindi joined the Federation. In the 2550s of this timeline, the Federation proved instrumental in halting an invasion of the galaxy by a power known as the Sphere Builders. This action caused the Sphere Builders to try to stop the Federation from ever being formed by manipulating the Xindi into attempting to destroy Earth in 2153. (ENT: "Azati Prime") By the timeline's 31st century, the Federation had become embroiled in the Temporal Cold War, attempting to maintain the integrity and outcome of its subjective history. (ENT: "Storm Front", "Storm Front, Part II")
Location and SizeEdit
- See also: Federation members and Federation colonies
Federation space was located approximately thirty thousand light years from the core region of the galaxy. (TNG: "The Nth Degree") Earth, the capital planet of the Federation, was located less than ninety light years from the Beta Quadrant. (ENT: "Broken Bow", "Two Days and Two Nights"; Star Trek Into Darkness)
By 2373, the Federation's territory was spread across 8,000 light years, with a membership of over 150 worlds. (DS9: "Battle Lines"; VOY: "Innocence"; Star Trek: First Contact) Its major neighboring powers were the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, the Cardassian Union, and the Ferengi Alliance. Other near-by powers included the First Federation, the Sheliak Corporate, the Son'a, the Talarians, the Tzenkethi, the Tholian Assembly, the Breen Confederacy, and the Xindi.
In 2377 and 2378, the location of the Federation was labeled in a map of the Milky Way Galaxy, that depicted the flight plan of the USS Voyager. In the chart, the Federation was located in the Orion Arm, next to the Alpha-Beta border. (Star Trek: Voyager, Season 7 production art [1])
The Federation's government was structured as that of a representative republic, with its capitol located on Earth. (TOS: "Amok Time"; DS9: "Rapture"; VOY: "In the Flesh"; Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)
The Executive BranchEdit
The executive branch was responsible for the day-to-day management of the Federation. The democratically-elected Federation President was the head of this branch. (DS9: "Paradise Lost"; Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home) The Federation President served as both the head of state and head of government; as chief executive officer of the government, the President determined most of the Federation's foreign policy, managed budgetary concerns, and served as supreme commander of the Federation's military forces. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country) The President's office was located in the Earth city of Paris on the European continent. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
The Federation Cabinet was a special executive committee to the President of the United Federation of Planets. (DS9: "Extreme Measures")
Executive AgenciesEdit
The Federation also maintained a number of executive agencies that assisted in the administration of its affairs:
- Archaeological Council
- Astronomical Committee
- Bureau of Agricultural Affairs
- Bureau of Industrialization
- Bureau of Planetary Treaties
- Central Bureau of Penology
- Department of Cartography
- Department of Temporal Investigations
- Earth Broadcasting Company
- Federation Naval Patrol
- Federation News Network
- Federation News Service
- Federation Science Council
- Federation Science Bureau
- Starfleet - see below.
- Terraform Command
- United Earth Space Probe Agency (UESPA) (existed from the 21st and at least into the 23rd century)
In addition, at least one rogue agency, known as Section 31, was known to have operated in the name of the Federation. (DS9: "Inquisition")
The LegislatureEdit
The Federation Council was the unicameral legislative body of the Federation. (TOS: "Amok Time") Composed of representatives from the various member worlds, the Federation Council held the power to create, amend, and ratify Federation law. (DS9: "Rapture"; TNG: "Force of Nature") The Federation Council also held a great deal of influence over the operations of the Federation's military service, Starfleet. It sometimes served as the judging body of specially-convened courts-martial, and on occasion issued operational orders to Starfleet. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home; TNG: "The Defector") The Council also held influence over the making of Federation foreign policy. (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior", "For the Cause") The Council's meeting chamber was in the Earth city of San Francisco, on the west coast of the North American continent.
The JudiciaryEdit
The judiciary was the branch of government responsible for resolving legal disputes. It consisted of a hierarchy of courts, with the Federation Supreme Court at its apex. (DS9: "Doctor Bashir, I Presume") Federation courts sometimes relied on panels of citizens known as juries. The Federation Grand Jury heard testimony as part of criminal investigations, while the Federation Special Jury tried war criminals. (DS9: "The Ascent", "Waltz") Alongside the civilian courts, Starfleet had its own system of courts martial. (TOS: "Court Martial"; TNG: "The Pegasus"; DS9: "For the Uniform", "Time's Orphan"; Star Trek: Insurrection)
Federation LawEdit
- Main article: Federation law
The fundamental political principles and laws of the Federation derived from two important documents:
- The Federation Charter was the document ratified by the original members of the United Federation of Planets at the organization's founding in 2161. Caste-based discrimination was prohibited under the Charter. (TNG: "The Outcast"; DS9: "Accession"; ENT: "Zero Hour", "These Are the Voyages...")
- The Federation Constitution incorporated a series of enumerated rights to which all sentient beings were regarded as being entitled, collectively referred to as the Guarantees. The Seventh Guarantee of the Federation Constitution protected individuals from self-incrimination, while the Twelfth Guarantee protected the rights of artists. (TNG: "The Drumhead", "The Perfect Mate"; VOY: "Author, Author")
Other rights and responsibilities for citizens derived from:
- The Federation Judicial Code, which provided guidelines and regulations related to legal issues.
- Starfleet General Orders and Regulations, a series of guidelines used to instruct members of Starfleet on the proper etiquette and policy in a situation that requires consultation for a resolution.
- The Federation Uniform Code of Justice, which formed the legal basis of Starfleet court martial proceedings.
Exploration and DefenseEdit
- Main article: Starfleet
Starfleet was the deep-space exploratory and defensive service maintained by the United Federation of Planets. Its principal functions were the advancement of Federation knowledge about the galaxy, the advancement of Federation knowledge of science and technology, and the defense of the Federation. In addition, it also played a significant diplomatic role. As per its mandate of deep-space exploration, its personnel were frequently brought into contact with cultures and sentient species whose existences were previously unknown to the Federation. Federation Starfleet officers therefore acted as official representatives of the Federation in these cases. Also, Federation Starfleet vessels were frequently used to ferry ambassadors on diplomatic missions. (TNG: "The Last Outpost"; TOS: "Journey to Babel"; ENT: "United"; ENT: "Babel One")
By the founding of the Federation in the 22nd century capitalism was no longer the economic system of Earth, being replaced by the New World Economy. According to Tom Paris, it was around this time that "money went the way of the dinosaur." (VOY: "Dark Frontier")
Under the New World Economy material needs and money no longer existed and humanity had grown out of its infancy. People were no longer obsessed with the accumulation of things, effectively eliminating hunger and want and the need for possessions. The challenge and driving force then were to self-improvement, self-enrichment, and the betterment of all humanity. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, TNG: "The Neutral Zone", "The Price", "Time's Arrow, Part II", Star Trek: First Contact)
Although most items and services were provided by the Federation, some luxury items and services could still be requisitioned as late as the 24th century using Federation credits, the Federation continued to deal with other cultures which had money-based economies, and private businesses from other races such as the Ferengi were sometimes permitted on Federation stations such as Deep Space 9, despite being scornful of the Federation's disregard for currency. (TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint", The Price (episode))
Admittance into the Federation was either by invitation or successful petition of a world or civilization desirous of joining. In the second case, membership was granted only upon satisfaction of certain requirements. Firstly, the government of the prospective member submitted an official petition to the Federation Council, outlining its desire to join. A lengthy, thorough investigation of the prospective member's culture followed. This investigation could take several years, and was done to ascertain whether or not the culture genuinely shared the values of the Federation: values of benevolence, peaceful co-existence and co-operation, the rule of law, and equal rights and justice. (DS9: "Rapture"; TNG: "The Measure Of A Man", "Attached") For example, the discovery on the petitioning planet, Angosia III, of enhanced soldiers being unjustly and indefinitely imprisoned without treatment in times of peace was considered unacceptable in Captain Jean-Luc Picard's official evaluation of the planet for the Federation. (TNG: "The Hunted")
Even before the investigation, the prospective member had to meet certain requirements. These were as follows:
- It had to have an "advanced level of technology." The Federation's baseline definition of this term was the capability for faster-than-light space travel. (TNG: "First Contact")
- Its government had to have achieved stable planetary political unity, respecting the rights of the individual. (TNG: "The Hunted", "Attached")
- No form of caste discrimination was to be practiced. (DS9: "Accession")
Members were allowed to leave the Federation if they wished. (TNG: "Journey's End")
- See also: List of Federation members
Reputation Edit
Due to its size and history, the United Federation of Planets consequently gained a reputation throughout the hierarchies of neighboring species and governments.
Klingon propaganda in the 23rd century claimed that the Federation committed atrocities against its prisoners, keeping them in death camps and torturing them for their scientific and military secrets. When beamed aboard the USS Enterprise in 2268, Mara reminded her husband Kang of these claims. Captain James T. Kirk remarked that she had much to learn about the Federation. (TOS: "Day of the Dove") In the aftermath of the so-called Genesis Incident, the Klingon Ambassador referred to the Federation as behaving "like a gang of intergalactic criminals". (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock). In the 2290s, the daughter of the Klingon Chancellor, Azetbur, called it a "Homo Sapiens only club" ( Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
In 2269, the Enterprise apprehended Lokai, a native of the planet Cheron, who was responsible for the theft of a Federation shuttlecraft from Starbase 4. Following his apprehension, and, upon his initial interrogation by Captain Kirk, Lokai stated that he had heard about the starship and the "United Fleet of Planets" to which it belonged. Kirk quickly corrected Lokai, stating the correct name of the Federation. (TOS: "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield")
During the preparation for the First Battle of Deep Space 9, in 2372, Quark expressed to Garak the direness being stuck on the station, stating that "the worst part is, my only hope for salvation is the Federation." Quark went on to introduce Garak to the Earth concoction of root beer, which Quark went on to describe as being "bubbly and cloying and happy. Just like the Federation," adding, "but you know what's really frightening? If you drink enough of it, you start to like it." Garak, who disliked the taste of the "vile" beverage, added too, that it was "insidious", to which Quark added, "just like the Federation." Garak finally takes a moment to embrace the Federation, inquiring to Quark if he thought they would "be able to save us?" The defeated Quark responded, "I hope so." (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior")
Prior to the breakdown of relations between the Federation and Klingon Empire, which eventually led to the Klingon-Federation War, Kurn opposed the decision to break the treaty but was overruled in Klingon Council. He later stated to Worf, that the reason for his opposition was "because Gowron underestimates the Federation. He thinks they're soft, weak, but he is wrong. Sooner or later, there will be war." (DS9: "Sons of Mogh")
When Michael Eddington, a leader of the Maquis, commented to Benjamin Sisko on why the Federation was "so obsessed about the Maquis," Eddington surmised that it was "because we've left the Federation, and that's the one thing you can't accept. Nobody leaves paradise. Everyone should want to be in the Federation," adding, "Hell, you even want the Cardassians to join. You're only sending them replicators so that one day they can take their "rightful place" on the Federation Council." Eddington finally drove his point home, stating, "you know, in some ways you're worse than the Borg. At least they tell you about their plans for assimilation. You're more insidious, you assimilate people and they don't even know it." (DS9: "For the Cause")
The Dominion's view of the Federation was less than positive. Following the Battle of the Omarion Nebula, which eliminated the threat of the Obsidian Order and Tal Shiar, the Changeling posing as Colonel Lovok stated that "after today the only real threats to us from the Alpha Quadrant are the Klingons and the Federation. And I doubt either of them will be a threat for much longer." (DS9: "The Die is Cast") As the Dominion cold war pressed on, Benjamin Sisko was told by Weyoun that "the Dominion has endured for over 2,000 years, and will continue to endure, until long after the Federation has crumbled into dust." (DS9: "To the Death")
Following Cardassia's joining of the Dominion, Gul Dukat offered Benjamin Sisko an opportunity to "save [his] precious Federation," by convincing them to "follow Cardassia's example" and join the Dominion as well, adding, "joining the Dominion will save billions of lives and keep the Federation from fading into the mists of history." (DS9: "By Inferno's Light")
Later, during the Dominion War, it was Weyoun's belief that for the Dominion to absorb the Federation, following their theoretical defeat, that "holding on to a prize as vast as the Federation isn't going to be easy. It's going to require an enormous number of ships, a massive occupation army and constant vigilance." Ultimately, Weyoun personally believed that "the key to holding the Federation is Earth. If there's going to be an organized resistance against us, its birthplace will be there." (DS9: "Sacrifice of Angels")
In 2375, Ru'afo, a Son'a who was working in conjunction with Starfleet Vice Admiral Matthew Dougherty, expressed his views of the Federation, describing it as "old," adding "in the last twenty four months, it's been challenged by every major power in the quadrant – the Borg, the Cardassians, the Dominion. They all smell the scent of death on the Federation." Ru'afo suggested to Dougherty that it was for that very reason why the Federation Council "embraced [the Son'a's] offer, because it will give your dear Federation new life." (Star Trek: Insurrection)
In a confrontation in 2379 between Jean-Luc Picard and his clone, Shinzon, Picard tried to sacrifice himself to save his ship and the Federation from Shinzon, but Shinzon disagreed with Picard's assessment, stating that "we will no longer bow before anyone as slaves, not the Romulans and not your mighty Federation." (Star Trek Nemesis)
Appendices Edit
Related topics Edit
Background information Edit
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine veered away from depicting the Federation typically. Ira Steven Behr commented, "Anything where we can have Federation people acting in ways that the Federation doesn't advise or support is interesting to me." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 25/26, No. 6/1, p. 109) On the other hand, the series' portrayal of the organization had to somwhat adhere to certain confines (such as with the design of the USS Defiant). Said Behr, "Everything has to stay within the Federation and the Federation is not, if you asked Gene Roddenberry, a military organization. We're not the cops of the galaxy." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 27, No. 4/5, p. 102)

Gentle Cleansing Wash
Gentle Cleansing Wash is distinctly preferred to Purpose's Gentle Cleansing Bar.
Gentle Cleansing Bar
Gentle Cleansing Bar is a standard bar soap and not recommended for any skin type.
Add to Faves?
Purpose At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; one good cleanser.
Weaknesses: Bar soap; sunscreen that contains preservatives not recommended for use in leave-on products; claims that are not supported by intelligent formulas.
Johnson & Johnson–owned Purpose is a very small line of products that make a big deal out of their gentleness and suitability for sensitive skin. We have a lot of respect for many J&J products, particularly in their Neutrogena and Aveeno lines; however, Purpose is best summed up by a purposeful "don't bother." There is only one great product in this line, and it can also be found (for less money) in the Clean & Clear line (and that line also offers a fragrance-free version of the cleanser). The remaining products are absolutely not "gentle enough for all skin types, even sensitive skin." That's because none of them contain ingredients that are what sensitive skin needs to look and feel better. The bar soap is drying and the fragrance irritating, while the daytime moisturizers contain potentially sensitizing ingredients, including active sunscreen agents that no research anywhere has proven capable of reducing facial redness.

← Genesect | Chespin | Unknown →
'Chespin' (Japanese: ハリマロン Harimaron) is the Grass-type Starter Pokémon in the unnamed sixth region from the Pokémon X and Pokémon Y Version.
- Chespin seems to resemble a tree - the head is compared as leaves and the body the lower part of the tree.
- Chespin is the first Grass-type starter Pokémon that is not reptile-based but based on a mammal, in this case a rodent or a marsupial.
- Chespin will be the third grass starter to stand on two legs, with the first being Treecko and the second being Snivy.
- Chespin bears a resemblance to Generation V starter Oshawott.
- Chespin may evolve into a dual dark type since it seems to have used night slash in the trailer.

Saturday, March 16
10 am - 4 pm with Zoketsu Norman Fischer 59 simple but profound slogans for softening your heart for love and concern for others. In this workshop we'll practice guided meditation, journaling, and focused small group and large group discussion as techniques to help us digest a much-loved and well-used traditional Indo-Tibetan Buddhist text. Usually referred to as Lojong (mind training), the text is a handbook for opening the heart to compassion. Its 59 slogans go from the profound ("rest in the openness of mind") to the bluntly comic ("don't expect applause") and constitute an eminently user-friendly course in seeing through your smallness and opening up your mind. Compassion is central to Zen, but implicit, so there's a need for Zen students to bring out the compassion side much more, and more explicitly. Hence this workshop. It is based on Norman Fischer's new book Training in Compassion: Zen Teachings on the Practice of Lojong. Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the workshop, so that the process of training you will begin can be continued. Fee: $50; $45 current SFZC members; $40 limited income. Some scholarships are available; see About Registration, Scholarships, and Cancellations. No one turned away for lack of funds. To Register: Use the Ticket Table below. Or call our toll free number 888.743.9362 or our local number 415.475.9362. |
