I booked a room through Hotel-Rates.com. They charged me $150.00. I cancelled the room well before the required 72 hours and they still charged me the total cost!! It says that no refund is given once reservation is confirmed. Well the confirmation comes immediately after making the reservation, so you do not have any time to cancel. They are a scam!!! Now they can go and book the room again and get a full rate again. USERS BE AWARE!!! DO NOT USE HOTEL-RATES.COM
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE -- I made a reservation for Days Inn West Nashville online ($69.99) per night and was charged $186 something. Way more than just taxes. Per hotels-rates.com, they could not breakdown the $42 difference because the hotel "tells" them what to charge. However the hotel couldn't break down the charges because I booked through hotels-rates.com. No one to speak to personally and no way to contact except email through their website. They could only send me an invoice through email but not broken down because "they don't know the breakdown". What a rip-off.
BERKLEY, CALIFORNIA -- Arrived at nine in the evening. What a shock. Looked like a flea pit. Dirty carpets tiny room, enough for half a person horrible, horrible place. Scratched like hell when we left. $114.00 down the drain. Won't use this reservation place again.
I just booked a hotel reservation online today. I realized there was a $24.99 fee for booking but thought that was how they would make money because they were getting me the hotel room at a lower rate. BIG MISTAKE! After making the reservation and contacting the hotel to confirm that it was accurate, I was told by a hotel worker they charge the same price per night as Hotels-Rates.com but without the extra taxes and the 24.99 service fee. I ended up spending way more money. When I realized this I was outraged. I attempted to call the number on my itinerary that was listed for Hotels-Rates.com. Well convenient for them, it was out of service.
After a ton of investigating online, I found this number for a woman named ** who claims to be a manager. Please call it if you have had similar experiences and let her know how dissatisfied you are. She seems to think that her and this company are doing nothing wrong but they are making thousands of dollars per day by ripping off innocent people like us. Here is the number **.
I booked a room with Hotels-Rates, without doing my homework. I know, shame on me. They claim to have the best rates, but charge a service charge, just for booking through them. I found I could have gotten a better deal, and without this service charge! I called to inquire about the service fees, and possibly cancel. Finding a number to call was nearly impossible. The only number available was in my email, not on their website. Once I finally got a hold of somebody, they were extremely rude to me. On top of being rude, I asked to speak with a manager, but the girl told me she was it.
Disappointing to find that a company would have such rude people in the customer service department! This has been an awful experience! I just hope that I can save someone some time, money and grief. DO NOT BOOK through HOTELS-RATES. (This is not to be confused with hotel-rates! They are pretty tricky, don't you think? One has an s in the name.) I repeat, DO NOT BOOK through HOTELS-RATES!
LA, CALIFORNIA -- I make a hotel reservation through Hotels-rates.com website a month ago. The hotel description of the hotel I pick on the webpage clearly stated that the rate includes Room and Taxes on a Single full-Sized bed room. However, after I check in the hotel on the day I reserved, I found out the rates was more than it was shown on the webpage. I contact Hotels-rates regarding the issue, they insist that it was nothing wrong on the information show on the webpage and they send out confirmation with the rate after my reservation process.
I point out that it was too late to cancel the reservation after I make the booking process and the booking fee had been charged at that moment if I see the confirmation rate is different. In other words, they provide false information on the website to mislead consumer to buy their product/service, they would not care the customer will end-up pay more to the third party.
I send email to them with a copy of reservation page with the "mislead" information that I print out on the day of booking to prove the case, I never received any feedback from them. What kind of service HOTELS-RATES.COM provide to consumer!!!??? Justice... would you willing to buy service from them after you read this review.

Iced White Ginger Pear is just delightful
Iced White Ginger Pear is just delightful... I just ordered this at a restaurant in Concord NH. I let everyone at the table try a sip. Look at the eyes... everyone lit up in the eyes and was pleasantly shocked at how delicious this tea is. Everyone wanted the waitress get the name of who made this tea blend. It is a hit all around... I want more... and I want it now.

My fav!
While I like all of the iced tea selections very much, this one stands out as the most flavorful and exactly what you hope for. Full of yummy ginger tones along with the pear flavor-it's a real treat. Something I look forward to every time. I add just a little honey when I want a sweet treat but none of the iced collection require it.

Fabulously Gingery
I love ginger and this tea had a lovely ginger infusion. The pear subtly complimented it. A fabulous treat that really balanced me.

The Best
I wasn't a tea drinker until I had the occasion to try this blend. Now I'm hooked. The White Ginger Pear is absolutely the smoothest, best tasting tea I have ever had. Thanks Tea Forte for breaking my cola habit!
8/2/11 | Susan, Columbia, MD
" The white tea base is absolutely lovely"
"The ginger is soft and mild, and blends well with the other flavors without being too intense. The white tea base is absolutely lovely, high quality and complementary to the flavor profiles in the tea. If you are looking for a sweet, light, refreshing and invigorating iced tea for summertime, this is the perfect iced tea."

The Serta iComfort Contour Pillow is made of memory foam, specially shaped to cradle the head and support the neck. This makes it comfortable for most back and side sleepers, but not suitable for stomach sleepers. It may also be uncomfortable for users with short necks that don't fit comfortably into the curve of the pillow. It's a bit pricey, but it holds up well and comes with a five-year warranty.
Shaped for support. Testers at Real Simple magazine say this pillow "contours brilliantly" to support the head and neck, without trapping body heat the way some memory foams can. They also note that the material is resistant to dust mites and microbes -- good news for allergy sufferers. Most Amazon.com users find the pillow extremely comfortable for both back and side sleeping. A couple of them, however, say this pillow feels too big or thick. One short-necked user complains of pain because the pillow's shape forces her head forward. Several users do note that the pillow feels firmer when you first lie down; however, it softens in response to your body heat.
Pricey but durable. At roughly $70, this memory-foam pillow is pricier than a fiber pillow but cheaper than most down pillows. Users say the pillow holds up well over time; one owner says it grew only slightly softer over a nine-month period, and another says it's still "shaped perfectly" after two years. The pillow comes in only one size, 20 inches by 15 inches. This is significantly smaller than the standard 20 by 26, but users don't find it too small; if anything, they say, it feels a bit big. The pillow has a removable, washable cover and is backed by a five-year warranty.

HONOLULU (AP) — The late U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye is being praised as a humble leader who embodied honor, dignity and duty during a public visitation at Hawaii's state Capitol.
Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie told hundreds of people gathered Saturday night that Inouye went from being considered undesirable as a Japanese-American at the start of World War II to gaining the respect of the country's leaders in Washington.
"Rest easy, you are at home with us in paradise," Abercrombie said. Abercrombie's remarks toward the end of an hourlong ceremony marked the start of seven hours of public visitation.
Inouye's closed casket, covered with an American flag, was escorted in by seven pallbearers along a red carpet to the center of the Capitol courtyard.
After the ceremony, it was placed in a large tent with the U.S. and Hawaii flags behind it, as people lined up outside to pay their respect, starting with Inouye's wife, Irene Hirano Inouye.
Inouye is just one of several Hawaii icons to lie in state at the Capitol in Honolulu. Sen. Hiram Fong was honored the same way in 2004, as was U.S. Rep. Patsy Mink in 2002 and singer Israel Kamakawiwoole in 1997.
"The Senator was the quintessential man of his word," said state House Speaker Calvin Say, who said Inouye understood that trust is the strongest currency in politics.
Say said Inouye let his work do the talking for him.
The 88-year-old World War II hero and federal lawmaker of more than five decades died Monday.
Inouye was a high school senior in Honolulu on Dec. 7, 1941, when he watched dozens of Japanese planes fly toward Pearl Harbor and other Oahu military bases to begin a bombing that changed the course of world events.

If you've spent hours picking fresh berries, or even just picked through baskets of them at the grocery store, you'll want to know how to make berries last longer. They are, after all, one of the best flavors of summer so why not make them last?
I adore summer berries: whole, sliced, frozen and plunked into lemonade, crushed in a cocktail, blended into a smoothie, simmered into a jelly or jam. Oh, and then there's my favorite Strawberry Bread, Strawberry Rhubarb Mini-pies, and my Blueberry Lemon Bread recipes! With all the ways to use them, I'm amazed at all the times I've had to throw moldy berries away. Until I learned this trick.
Ordinarily, you should hold off washing produce until just before using it. Berries (and melons) are exceptions to that rule. Washing them properly right away will actually prolong their lifespan (though for melons stick with homemade fruit and vegetable wash).
Homemade Berry Wash
- Simply mix one part white vinegar and five parts cool water.
- Soak the berries for a couple of minutes, then remove them to dry on paper towels, or spin them for fifteen seconds in a salad spinner.
- While berries dry, wash the container they came in using the vinegar mix to kill lingering mold spores. Be sure to toss out any padding that came in the container, and replace it with a clean paper towel.
- Once your berries are dry, return them to the container and store them in the fridge. Change the towel when it gets moist and your berries will stay fresh up to two weeks.
Still have berries left? Berries freeze well when placed on a baking sheet with plenty of room between them. Once they're frozen solid, pop them into a freezer bag and store for another day. (See How To Freeze Produce for ways to save other fruits and vegetables.)
Or, forego the freezer and slice them, then add 1/4 cup of sugar for every 1 cup of berries. Stir gently and store in an air-tight container in the fridge where they'll stay good for several more days.

"The number of unanswered questions and the White House's secrecy and obstruction surrounding 9/11 demand a real investigation, not the current compromised inquiry. We owe that to the family members and to all Americans."
Greens call for Independent 9/11 Probe led by Family Members
by The Green Party of the United States
Common Dreams
Wednesday, Apr 28, 2004
WASHINGTON – April 28 – Green Party leaders renewed the party's call for an independent commission, with full participation of surviving family members, to investigate the government's handling of 9/11 and information leading up to the attacks.
"The members of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks in the U.S. have pervasive conflicts of interests which disqualify them from leading an investigation," said Jake Schneider, treasurer of the Green Party of the United States. "The White House did all it could to obstruct a thorough probe, and has so far succeeded. President Bush insisted that commission members be limited to representatives of the two major parties, with each party having a veto, and that the commission could not investigate why 9/11 occurred. The commission's focus was damage control, not discovery of the truth."
Greens noted that the 9/11 Commission established two major points: (1) the Bush Administration ignored numerous warnings from intelligence and foreign governments; (2) the Bush Administration used 9/11 as a pretext to enact existing plans for a war against Iraq and to curtail civil liberties in America.
But Greens charge that numerous other points went uninvestigated:

Condoleezza Rice is a household name. But most Americans still have never heard of the man who wrote a book with her, Philip Zelikow.
As the executive director of the Kean Commission, Zelikow is responsible for framing the agenda. He leads the research staff. He decides what evidence the commission sees.
In April, the world media focused on Rice's appearance before the commission. She claimed, not for the first time, that no one could have imagined terrorists would use hijacked planes as weapons against buildings. This is a demonstrable falsehood, which Bush himself inadvertently exposed a week later. (See "Bush, Rice and the Genoa Warning")
Rice's testimony received mostly bad reviews. The commission was credited with investigative fervor. Few reports bothered to note that in the late 1980s, Rice and Zelikow worked closely together on George H.W. Bush's national security staff.
Zelikow and Rice co-authored a 1999 book about their experiences in the first Bush White House, "Germany Unified and Europe Transformed: A Study in Statecraft." The book presents "a detailed and fascinating account of behind-the-scenes discussions and deliberations" during the fall of the Soviet empire, according to Library Journal.
Zelikow again served alongside Rice as a member of the Bush transition team in 2000- 2001, when he took part in White House meetings on the terror threat. Since this was of interest to the 9/11 investigation, the Kean Commission recently called Zelikow as a witness, in a closed-door session.
Now imagine if the judge in a trial was a close associate of the star witness.…Continue reading
Open Letter To Thomas Kean, Chairman Of The 9/11 Commission, from FBI Whistleblower Sibel Edmonds
August 1, 2004
Thomas Kean, Chairman
National Committee on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States
301 7th Street, SW
Room 5125
Washington, DC 20407
Dear Chairman Kean:
It has been almost three years since the terrorist attacks on September 11; during which time we, the people, have been placed under a constant threat of terror and asked to exercise vigilance in our daily lives. Your commission, the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States, was created by law to investigate 'facts and circumstances related to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001′ and to 'provide recommendations to safeguard against future acts of terrorism', and has now issued its '9/11 Commission Report'. You are now asking us to pledge our support for this report, its recommendations, and implementation of these recommendations, with our trust and backing, our tax money, our security, and our lives.
Unfortunately, I find your report seriously flawed in its failure to address serious intelligence issues that I am aware of, which have been confirmed, and which as a witness to the commission, I made you aware of. Thus, I must assume that other serious issues that I am not aware of were in the same manner omitted from your report. These omissions cast doubt on the validity of your report and therefore on its conclusions and recommendations. Considering what is at stake, our national security, we are entitled to demand answers to unanswered questions, and to ask for clarification of issues that were ignored and/or omitted from the report.…Continue reading
Opinion by Mark A. Dunlea
National Green Party Homepage
Posted December 06, 2004.
It is time for the peace movement in New York State to take up the demand to find truth about the three thousand people murdered in New York City on 9/11.
With the apparent election of George Bush as President, the likelihood that we will ever find the truth about 9/11 becomes even more remote. It is certainly not going to come from the federal government, where Bush, Congress, Republicans and Democrats, CIA, FBI and the foreign policy establishment all clearly share in some of the culpability for the deaths.
For a variety of reasons, the 2004 elections were unsuccessful in shaking Bush loose from the White House. This would be a good time to revisit two other approaches to removing Bush from office: the 9/11 truth movement, and impeachment. This article focuses on 9/11.
A poll released by Zogby International this fall found that half of the New York City residents – and more than 40% statewide – believed that the Bush administration knew about the 9/11 terrorist threats beforehand but failed to take action to prevent it. This is also largely the conclusion drawn from the work of federal 9/11 Commission – though they avoided stating it so bluntly out of their bipartisan effort to avoid "disrupting" the presidential campaign.
There are a number of approaches that New York could pursue (e.g., investigations by NYC City Council; State Legislature; criminal prosecution by the Manhattan DA… Continue reading

Boulder Weekly
October 21 – 28, 2004
Tim Gale became a believer one day last January. He was prowling the Internet when he came across a video of one of the World Trade Center towers collapsing on Sept. 11, 2001. It was likely a video Gale had seen before, but this footage was in slow motion. As Gale watched the tower's 110 floors begin to crumble, he noticed something unusual.
Right before the tower dropped into a cloud of debris, the windows on the upper levels of the towers blew outwards, one floor at a time, like clockwork. That wasn't caused by the plane slamming into the tower or the ensuing fire, Gale told himself.
There were bombs in the World Trade Center.
"It blew my head off," says Gale. "I started searching like crazy."
What Gale found, in countless websites, books and films, was a vast network of information questioning the official story of what happened on Sept. 11. The 42-year-old Boulder resident was inundated with decades-old memos, foreign newspaper clippings, engineering studies and national-defense policies. And he discovered the collapse of the World Trade Center was just the beginning – he believes he's witnessing the collapse of the American society.
"I was being confronted with the raw fact that the U.S. government was complicit in the mass murder of its own citizens for geopolitical purposes," says Gale. "It's too much to bear in the confines of your mind."
Gale began spending six to eight hours… Continue reading

WTC Tower II, 93rd floor
Friday 22 October 2004
On the Thirty-third Anniversary of My Daughter's Birth
Sometimes, Mr. Bush, it's the smallest of details that makes everything click. The smallest of details. Right now, Mr. Bush, I am looking at your watch. It's an item of clothing accessory and, unlike your other costumes, it is one that is particularly revealing.
On Halloween my daughter would be thirty-three years old. Her child would be almost three. Seven weeks before her twenty-ninth birthday, Vanessa, four months pregnant, ran from the falling towers of the World Trade Center. She did not make it. Her body, and in it the small body of her unborn child, was pulled from the rubble of the fallen towers on September 24th, just ten feet from an alley between towers IV and V. It is important for me to tell you that she was on the phone to her uptown office five minutes after the first plane hit tower I, explaining how she and others in tower II were "safe."
Here is what you did regarding specifically the events of that morning: You vacationed before, during and after August 6th, the day you were handed the presidential daily briefing that said very clearly Vanessa Lang Langer and many other Americans were not safe. After the first plane hit tower I, the fact of the PDB did not click in your mind, did not cause you to… Continue reading
The ABC News website has finally acknowledged the existence of alternative research and popular doubts about what really happened on September 11, how and why. We welcome this breakthrough.
We are very pleased that the article by Dean Schabner, published today on the front page of the ABC News website, seems to have fairly quoted two persons among the many citizens pursuing alternative research and actions for justice and full disclosure around 9/11.
We hope that ABC News will follow up with televised broadcasts on this subject, and give a fair hearing to all points of view.
Even as we thank ABC News, we must unfortunately also note that its article adopts a dismissive tone toward doubts about September 11, in advance of full inquiry. The headline is mildly misleading; the unanswered questions about September 11 did not merely "surface" on the eve of Election Day, but have been the subject of untiring work by hundreds of researchers for more than three years and the subject of such best-selling books as The New Pearl Harbor by David Ray Griffin and the recent Crossing the Rubicon by Michael C. Ruppert.
No basis whatsoever is given for the assessment of the ABC Polling Unit that the Zogby International survey of New York residents cited in the article (co-commissioned by 911Truth.org) is "not credible."
Using the same established methodologies as in other surveys regularly cited by ABC News and other major media, Zogby polled a representative sampling of 808 adult New York… Continue reading
Distrust of U.S. Fuels Stories About Source of the Attacks By IAN JOHNSON THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
September 29, 2003
His thesis: The U.S. government staged the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington to justify wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. It is a tentative theory, he admits, based mostly on his doubt that Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda terrorist group launched the attacks.
"That's something that is simply 99% false," he said at a reading of his book on the second anniversary of the attacks.
A crackpot? A conspiracy theorist who believes that Elvis lives and the CIA murdered Kennedy? Not exactly. Mr. von Bulow, 66 years old, is a former German cabinet minister, a trim, silver-haired man whose book comes from one of the country's most prestigious publishing houses and who lectures at well-known public institutions.
He's not alone: In recent months, Germany's leading broadcaster, ARD, ran a purported documentary making similar claims, while half a dozen other German authors have published… Continue reading

The second step, however, consciously confronting the implications of that knowledge–and what it says about our media, politics and economic system today–is by far the harder awakening and requires an enormous exercise of nerve and heart. (As the Chinese say, "You cannot wake… Continue reading
Pentagon strategic plan codifies unilateral, preemptive attacks. The doctrine marks a shift from coalitions such as NATO, analysts say.
by John Hendren
Los Angeles Times
March 19, 2005
WASHINGTON – Two years after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the Pentagon has formally included in key strategic plans provisions for launching preemptive strikes against nations thought to pose a threat to the United States.
The doctrine also now stipulates that the U.S. will use "active deterrence" in concert with its allies "if we can" but could act unilaterally otherwise, Defense officials said.
The changes codify the more assertive defense policy adopted by the Bush administration since the Sept. 11 attacks and are included in a "National Military Strategy" and "National Defense Strategy," reports that are part of a comprehensive review of military strategy conducted every four years.
"The president has the obligation to protect the country," said Douglas J. Feith, the Defense Department's undersecretary for policy. "And I don't think that there's anything in our Constitution that says that the president should not protect the country unless he gets some non-American's participation or approval of that."
Pentagon managers use the strategic plan to guide such decisions as where to place bases, which bases to eliminate, what weapons to buy and where to position them. The heads of the United States' regional commands across the globe, in turn, use the strategy to prioritize spending and form strategies for eliminating threats in their regions.
"The potentially catastrophic impact of an attack against the United States, its allies and its interests may necessitate actions in self-defense to preempt adversaries before they can attack," the National Military Strategy states.…Continue reading

Sure, the people with the 9/11 conspiracy theories are a little odd. But not everything they're saying is entirely crazy.
THE GRAND LAKE Theater in Oakland was filled almost to capacity March 10, just as the Guild Theatre in Menlo Park was the night before and the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco would be the next night, all for a documentary with bad production values and even worse leaps of logic.
This was the local premiere of The Great Conspiracy: The 9/11 News Special You Never Saw, a benefit screening for the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance, whose activists have been laboring for more than three years to dispel popular belief in the government's version of the events on that fateful day.
And to fill that void, they offer a wide variety of alternative theories, carefully laid out in the dozens of books and DVDs that local truth-movement leader Carol Brouillet sold from a table in the theater lobby, or in the hundreds of Web sites devoted to debunking the official story.
Brouillet is what most people think of when they use the term "conspiracy theorist." Ever since she saw the Oliver Stone film JFK — which she describes as her moment of awakening — she has been trafficking in the dark world of a shadow government executing secret plots. She's been gathering every relevant document she can find, meticulously connecting every dot into an elaborate proof.
It is a worldview in which… Continue reading
– Theologian and Author Believes the President Endorsed the Attacks to Build Up Support for his Military Plans.
by Doug Erickson
Wisconsin State Journal
Page B1, April 19, 2005
A noted Christian theologian suggested Monday in Madison that the Bush administration not only had prior knowledge of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, but probably helped orchestrate them.
David Ray Griffin, 65, a retired professor at the Claremont School of Theology in Claremont, Calif., said the government's version of the attacks is so implausible it can't possibly be true.
Unlike Madison's progressive Capitol Times which carried the other Griffin story below, the Wisconsin State Journal is known as a crusty Republican rag with circulation all across the state. If this does not justfy perseverance, it's hard to say what would.
The numerous inconsistencies and far-fetched explanations from Bush officials "show that the attacks must have been planned and executed by our own political and military leaders," Griffin said.
He thinks Bush endorsed the attacks to gain support for a military… Continue reading

When Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee last year, he was asked whether he "ordered or approved the use of sleep deprivation, intimidation by guard dogs, excessive noise, and inducing fear as an interrogation method for a prisoner in Abu Ghraib prison." Sanchez, who was head of the Pentagon's Combined Joint Task Force-7 in Iraq, swore the answer was no. Under oath, he told the Senators he "never approved any of those measures to be used."
But a document the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) obtained from the Pentagon flat out contradicts Sanchez's testimony. It's a memorandum entitled "CJTF-7 Interrogation and Counter-Resistance Policy," dated September 14, 2003. In it, Sanchez approved several methods designed for "significantly increasing the fear level in a detainee." These included "sleep management"; "yelling, loud music, and light control: used to create fear, disorient detainee, and prolong capture shock"; and "presence of military working dogs: exploits Arab fear of dogs."
On March 30, the ACLU wrote a letter to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, urging him "to open an investigation into whether General Ricardo A. Sanchez committed perjury in his sworn testimony."
The problem is, Gonzales may himself have committed perjury in his Congressional testimony this January. According to a March 6 article in The New York Times, Gonzales submitted written testimony that said: "The policy of the United States is not to transfer individuals to countries where we believe they likely will be tortured, whether those individuals are being transferred from inside or outside the United States." He added that he was "not aware of anyone in the executive branch authorizing any transfer of a detainee in violation of that policy."
"That's a clear, absolute lie," says Michael Ratner, executive director of the Center for Constitutional Rights, who is suing Administration officials for their involvement in the torture scandal.…Continue reading

Remember the Cheney/Rumsfeld/PNAC call for this militant metastasis in 2000? Or their realistic complaint that this "transformation" would take forever "absent a cataclysmic and catalyzing event — like a new Pearl Harbor"? Or that Darth Cheney still holds 433,333 stock options in Halliburton, which is making more money off this imperial oil grab than any firm on earth? Map the bases, chart the profits, connect the dots. – Ed.
The last few weeks have been base-heavy ones in the news. The Pentagon's provisional Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) list, the first in a decade, was published to domestic screams of pain. It represents, according to the Washington Post, "a sweeping plan to close or reduce forces at 62 major bases and nearly 800 minor facilities" in the United States. The military is to be reorganized at home around huge, multi-force "hub bases" from which the Pentagon, in the fashion of a corporate conglomerate, hopes to "reap economies of scale." This was front-page news for days as politicians and communities from Connecticut (the U.S. Naval Submarine Base in Groton) and New Jersey (Fort Monmouth) to South Dakota (Ellsworth Air Force Base) cried bloody murder over the potential loss of jobs and threatened to fight to the death to prevent their specific base or set of bases (but not anyone else's) from closing – after all, those workers had been the most productive and patriotic around. These closings – and their potentially devastating effects on communities – were a reminder (though seldom dealt with that way in the media) of just how deeply the Pentagon has dug itself into the infrastructure of our nation.…Continue reading

Over four years ago, more than four months prior to the September 11 terrorist attacks, in April 2001, a long-term FBI informant/asset who had been providing the bureau with information since 1990, provided two FBI agents and a translator with specific information regarding a terrorist attack being planned by Osama Bin Laden. This asset/informant was previously a high-level intelligence officer in Iran in charge of intelligence from Afghanistan. Through his contacts in Afghanistan he received information that: 1) Osama Bin Laden was planning a major terrorist attack in the United States targeting 4-5 major cities, 2) the attack was going to involve airplanes, 3) some of the individuals in charge of carrying out this attack were already in place in the United States, 4) the attack was going to be carried out soon, in a few months. The agents who received this information reported it to their superior, Special Agent in Charge of Counterterrorism, Thomas Frields, at the FBI Washington Field Office, by filing "302" forms, and the translator, Mr. Behrooz Sarshar, translated and documented this information. No action was taken by the Special Agent in Charge, Thomas Frields, and after 9/11 the agents and the translators were told to 'keep quiet' regarding this issue. The translator who was present during the session with the FBI informant, Mr. Behrooz Sarshar, reported this incident to Director Mueller in writing, and later to the Department of Justice Inspector General. The press reported this incident, and in fact the… Continue reading

Mr. Rove, the first thing that I would like to address is Afghanistan – the place that anyone with a true "understanding of 9/11″ knows is a nation that actually has a connection to the 9/11 attacks. One month after 9/11, we invaded Afghanistan, took down the Taliban, and left without capturing Usama Bin Laden – the alleged perpetrator of the September 11th attacks. In the meantime, Afghanistan has carried out democratic elections, but continues to suffer from extreme violence and unrest. Poppy production (yes, Karl, the drug trade) is at an all time high, thus flooding the world market with heroin. And of course, the oil pipeline (a.k.a. the Caspian Sea pipeline) is better protected by U.S. troops who now have a "legitimate" excuse to be in that part of Afghanistan. Interesting isn't it Karl that the drug "rat line" parallels the oil pipeline. (Yet, with all those troops guarding that same sliver of land, can you please explain how those drugs keep getting through?)
Now Karl, a question for you, since you seem to be the… Continue reading

The War on Truth: 9/11, Disinformation, and the Anatomy of Terrorism
by Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed
Description: Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed outlines the relationship between the West and radical Muslim groups like the Mujahideen in Afghanistan, the Armed Islamic Group (GIA) in Algeria, and the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) in Serbia. Mr. Ahmed says that these groups, parts of which are now affiliated with Al Qaeda, were used by the United States and Britain to further Western political and economic goals. He argues that a more complete investigation of this relationship is necessary to understand what happened on 9/11. Mr. Ahmed also talks about the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and the 1996 British attempt to assassinate Libya's Muammar Gaddafi in this light. This talk, held at American University in Washington, DC, was organized by the DC Emergency Truth Convergence (www.truthemergency.us). Includes Q&A.
Author Bio: Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed is executive director of the Institute for Policy Research & Development (www.globalresearch.org) based in Brighton, UK. He is the author of "The War on Freedom: How and Why America was Attacked, September 11, 2001."

A US military intelligence team code-named "Able Danger" identified Mohamed Atta and three other alleged 9/11 hijackers as potential terrorists in the summer of 2000, at a time when Atta was living in Florida, according to yesterday's New York Times .
But the Times story obscures at least as much as it reveals.
The 9/11 Commission was made aware of the Able Danger program in 2003, but failed to mention it in its 2004 report.
The Times calls yesterday's revelation "the first assertion that Mr. Atta… was identified by any American government agency as a potential threat before the Sept. 11 attacks." In fact, such assertions date back to German press reports of September 2001 and October 2002, when several German newspapers reported that the CIA had Atta under observation during the first six months of 2000, while he was still living in Germany.
According to the German reports of Sept. 2001, the CIA in 2000 watched as Atta "bought chemicals" in Frankfurt and later tracked him to Berlin, where he received an entry visa from the US consulate in May 2000.
(According to official US timelines of his activities, Atta entered the United States for the first time in June 2000, although witness accounts reported in local papers after 9/11 place him in Florida months earlier.)
The CIA did not inform German authorities about its surveillance of Atta on their soil in 2000, and the Germans learned about it only after the 9/11/01 attacks. The German authorities themselves also… Continue reading

Survival tips: what to do before, during, and after the flood
(Updated 5:23 p.m.) - Even before it starts flooding, it's best to have an emergency kit ready. Pack batteries, a radio, flashlights, ready-to-eat food, drinking water, medicine, as well as clothes in case you need to evacuate. Have a list of emergency hotlines and keep this handy.
Wading through floods is not advisable, as this exposes you to Leptospirosis bacteria, which spreads when sewage overflows into the streets during heavy rains.
If you must wade through floods, wear boots to avoid cutting or scraping your feet on submerged debris.
There is also the risk of falling, as even just six inches of moving water can make you fall, according to the US Department of Homeland Security's Ready campaign website.
"If you have to walk in water, walk where the water is not moving. Use a stick to check the firmness of the ground in front of you," they said.
Stranded commuters wade through floods in Metro Manila. Danny Pata
When your car is already in floodwater, disconnect the car battery. This will prevent the computer box from getting short-circuited, Top Gear Philippines said, citing Concept One Wheels.
For those who aren't able to move their car to higher ground, HP Racing gave these tips:
- Remove the car battery.
- Remove the computer box.
- Remove the head unit.
- Spray the alternator with WD-40 and wrap the alternator in plastic.
- Cover the tailpipe with plastic, and use a rubber band to seal it tight.
- Do the same for the intake manifold.
- Spray the sensors from all angles with WD-40.
Top Gear also shared tips from drifter and Car Porn founder Ian King's Twitter account. King advised those using a car with automatic transmission to "shift it to Low (or '1') to keep the engine's revolution up and keep water from entering the exhaust pipe."
For those using vehicles with manual transmission, King said drivers should "ride the clutch pedal to keep the engine's revs up and prevent it from stalling."
Ford Philippines also shared a Flood Driving Action Guide based on information from the US Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
According to the guide, you should not drive unless absolutely necessary.
"Even if the water appears shallow enough to cross, don't try it. Water hides dips in the road. Worse yet, there may be no road at all under the water. Flooding can scour away the entire road surface and a significant amount of ground beneath," the guide said.
They warned that six inches of water will reach the bottom of most passenger cars, causing loss of control or possible stalling, and one foot of water can already float many vehicles.
"Two feet of rushing water can sweep away most vehicles — including SUVs and pick-ups," the guide added.
"If you have driven through water up to the wheel rims or higher, test your brakes on a clear patch of road at low speed. If they are wet and not stopping the vehicle as they should, dry them by pressing gently on the brake pedal with your left foot while maintaining speed with your right foot," it said.
For cars that have already been submerged in floodwater up to any part of its electrical system, car owners should not turn on the car's ignition, Volvo Philippines said.
They also advised car owners to bring their vehicle to authorized service centers after driving through deep water. "If your car has stalled while traversing deep water, do not attempt to restart the vehicle as this may result in service damage to engine components," they said.
Wading through floods is not advisable. In Barangay La Paz in Makati, residents use a boat to get through flooded streets.
Household cleaning
After Ondoy in 2009, GMA News Online compiled tips and tricks to help bookworms salvage their beloved tomes.
Dirty pages can be cleaned with running water, or rinsed in a basin. Paper towels or blotting paper can be placed in between pages to help dry the books.
The Department of Health advised residents in areas affected by flooding to make sure their drinking water is clean and purified. DOH Secretary Enrique Ona said that "clear" water could still be contaminated. "Purifying it by boiling or disinfection will make it potable," he said in a previous report.
Meanwhile, those cleaning up their homes after a flood can follow these tips listed by the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
- Open windows and doors to remove excess moisture. Dehumidifiers and fans can also help.
- Make sure you wear rubber boots when drying out your house.
- Keep children and pets away from the affected area.
- Use hot water and detergent for cleaning hard surfaces, as well as clothes contaminated by flood water or sewage water.
- Throw items that cannot be washed and disinfected.
Wet cellphones
For wet cellphones, Popular Mechanics said the first step is to remove the battery and SIM card. Then you can dry the phone by blowing or sucking the water out.
You can also submerge the phone in a bowl of silica gel packets, or a bowl of dry rice. Do not use a hairdryer or put the phone in the microwave.
"If your phone gets soaked in salt water, you should probably flush the whole thing in fresh water before it dries. When salt water evaporates, it leaves crystals that can damage a phone's fragile components. Just be sure to remove the battery before flooding the device," they said. –KG, GMA News

Real Housewives of New Jersey
Melissa Gorga: Teresa and Joe Giudice Have Tried to Turn Joe Gorga's Parents Against Him
Melissa Gorga continually tries her hardest to keep things peaceful with Teresa Giudice and her family, but lately this h'wife has been more outspoken about her family issues than ever before.
In particular, Melissa chose to address — via her BravoTV.com blog — Joe Giudice's conversation with his wife, in which he insults the Gorgas and threatens to leave Teresa should she talk about them again.
Melissa wisely chose not to weigh in on how Joe Giudice spoke to Teresa during that conversation, but she did take issue with what was said about her family.
Melissa writes, "What I did notice was when Joe Giudice said he was sick of Teresa running back to tell him everything and that he would throw my in-laws out of his house if they defended their son."
"This is exactly the point that my husband complains about all the time. He does feel like they [Teresa and Joe] constantly try to turn his parents against him and they constantly complain to his parents about us," Melissa continues.
While Melissa insists her family has wonderful weekly dinners with Joe's parents, she still sympathizes with her husband's situation.
"You can't blame him, they are his parents too and he loves them, and he shouldn't have to defend himself and his wife to his own parents because of what his sister and her husband are telling them."
Do you agree with Melissa? Tell us your thoughts below!

EVANSTON, Ill. - The Indiana University wrestling team (11-8) closed out the 2011-12 regular season with a 27-7 road loss to #18 Northwestern (11-4) Friday night. Postseason action is up next on the Hoosier docket, heading to the Big Ten Championships on March. 3-4.
Friday evening's dual started with the 184-pound bout and back-to-back victories for Indiana. True freshman Luke Sheridan got it started the right way, topping Robert Kellogg in a 4-3 decision. Third-ranked Matt Powless then pushed IU ahead 7-0, recording his ninth major decision of the season in the 197-lbs. match-up.
Powless' 10-2 win over John Schoen was the 119th of his career, giving him a share of sixth-place in the school's all-time rankings for career wins. He pulls even with current volunteer coach Brandon Becker, who also gathered 119 W's during his four years donning the Cream and Crimson (2005-08). Next on the list is Coyte Cooper (2000-04) in fifth place with 123 triumphs.
Powless has not lost a match since Jan. 2 at the Southern Scuffle, rattling off 10 straight since his last defeat. Eight of those 10 W's have come with bonus points as well, including four pins. It marked his 30th win of the season, making it three consecutive 30-plus-wins years for Powless.
Sheridan, meanwhile, improves to 16-13 during his rookie campaign; and is currently riding a four-bout winning streak.
The 27-7 final score is a deceiving one as three Hoosiers lost by a lone point and/or in sudden victory. Adam Chalfant and Matt Ortega each came up just one point short while Ryan LeBlanc forced extra time against #12 Lee Munster.

In the Royal Navy in the middle of the 18th century, the term Able Seaman (abbreviated AB) referred to a seaman with at least two years' experience at sea. Seamen with less experience were referred to as landmen or ordinary seamen.
In 1653 the Royal Navy introduced a new pay scale as part of reforms following defeat in the Battle of Dungeness the previous year. Included in these reforms were, for the first time, separate pay scales for more experienced seaman. It distinguished between an ordinary seaman and an able seaman. The higher ranked able seaman could steer, use the lead and work aloft, traditionally to "hand, reef, and steer." An able seaman received about 25% higher pay than an ordinary seaman.
In time of war (such as the Seven Years' War or the Napoleonic Wars), with many more warships in service, the navy, merchant marine, and privateers competed ferociously for the limited pool of able seamen, leading to the unpopular use of impressment by the Royal Navy to keep its ships manned. In peacetime, with many fewer active warships, there was usually a surplus of unemployed able seamen willing to work in the navy. As late as the Napoleonic Wars, the Royal Navy's practice of stopping American ships to press American sailors, who may have been born British subjects, into involuntary service, was one of the main factors leading to the War of 1812 with the United States.
Able Seaman is the equivalent rank to Private (Trained), or simply Private, in the Army and Air Force. In French the rank is called Matelot de 2e classe.

Kwara State Government at the weekend delivered relief materials worth several millions of naira, which it said donor agencies and other reputable organisations donated to the victims of flood disasters in the state.
Some of the agencies and organisations that donated the materials include: are the Presidential Committee on Flood Relief and Rehabilitation, Sir Ahmadu Bello Foundation, Students of Departments of Education and Sociology, Kwara State University and management and staff of Sterling Bank PLC.
Special Adviser on Emergency and Relief Services, Mr. Musa Abdullahi, handed over the materials to the chairmen of the five local government areas, which were severely affected by the flood disasters.
The relief materials include hundreds of mattresses, several bags of rice bags, cement and beans as well as packs of indomies. Others were hundreds of print wax, groundnut oil, fish net, plastic materials and other assorted goods.
Speaking after the delivery of the relief materials, the special adviser called on the five affected council chairmen to ensure that the materials are delivered to the victims of the flood disasters.
Abdullahi expressed the state appreciations to the donors, saying the materials would give succour to the victims and the state government was committed to the welfare of the people and would leave no stone unturned at adding values to the socio well being of the populace.
Abdullahi therefore thanked the donor agencies and organisations for rising to the needs of flood victims saying that, the gesture would go a long way of improving their socio well being.

Unique Proof 1838 Seated Quarter1838 25C No Drapery PR63 PCGS. "Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity" is a phrase that is bandied about far too often in the numismatic community. However, in the case of the unique proof 1838 Seated Liberty quarter, the phrase is justified. The last time the coin appeared for sale at public auction was five months before this aged cataloger was born. This is the only specimen recorded in Walter Breen's Encyclopedia of United States and Colonial Proof Coins, 1722-1989, where the author noted that "Wayte Raymond knew another." In the Complete Encyclopedia of U.S. and Colonial Coins, the same author wrote simply that there was "only one proof reported." Unless or until the other piece, the one that Wayte Raymond knew about, turns up, we submit that this 1838 Seated quarter is unique as a proof.
The Dupont-West PR63 Specimen
The Dupont-West PR63 Specimen
Christian Gobrecht succeeded William Kneass as the new chief engraver of the Philadelphia Mint in 1836, and soon completed his iconic Seated Liberty obverse. The new design appeared on silver dollars in 1836, and on other denominations from 1837 to 1839. Following production of Capped Bust quarters during the first several months of 1838, the Mint switched to the Seated Liberty design. Gobrecht combined the Seated Liberty obverse, which he made famous over the previous couple of years, with the older-style eagle reverse, similar to the Kneass design that appeared on the earlier Capped Bust quarters and half dollars.
Mint Director Robert Maskell Patterson sent 20 examples of the new-design quarters to Treasury Secretary Levi Woodbury on September 13, 1838. In his 1977 Proof Encyclopedia, Breen comments that Patterson "did not" call them specimens. A decade later in his Complete Encyclopedia, Breen writes that "the term 'specimens' was Patterson's." The manufacturing method of those 20 coins remains unknown, although we might surmise that they were special pieces, perhaps proofs, and they were certainly struck on the Thonnelier steam presses that were installed at the second mint about two years previously.
Production of the first regular issue, business strike Seated quarters began on September 29, 1838. Most likely, that production followed the approval of Woodbury, who earlier examined the 20 specimens that were sent to him on September 13, and likely struck that same day. If that is the case, and if this Select proof specimen is one of the 20 coins, we might assume it was struck on September 13, 1838.
We are only aware of a single proof example of the 1838 Seated Liberty quarter, the example offered here. This specimen, which Breen cited in his Proof Encyclopedia, appeared in the Anderson-Dupont sale (Stack's, 11/1954) as lot 1815, and later in the Edgar A. West consignment (Stack's, 5/1957) as lot 667. Breen incorrectly attributed the West sale to Abe Kosoff. The present specimen clearly matches the plates in both the Dupont catalog and the West consignment, and it is likely that our consignor purchased the coin directly from the 1957 Stack's sale. Our consignor comments: "This coin adds a page to numismatic history and fills out further the enigmatic chronicle of early 19th century proof coinage."
In 1954, Stack's described the coin as "Brilliant gem Proof. Unlisted in the Breen monograph on Proofs. Probably unique in this condition." Although shy of a Gem, this Select proof is so much more than a mere brilliant proof. Every individual design element is bold, including full stars, complete head details, and a full sandal on the obverse, to the sharp claws, arrow feathers, leaf venation, and eagle feathers on the reverse. Both sides of this beautiful piece exhibit broad, squared rims with deep, mirrored fields and satin reliefs. Those fields, while showing faint hairlines and contact marks, display fine Mint-made striations, up to the right on the obverse and up to the left on the reverse. Similar striations are often encountered on 19th century proof coins. The surfaces show hints of heather with splashes of golden-lilac and pale blue gathering near the peripheries.
Overemphasizing the importance of this opportunity will prove difficult. It is a unique proof of the 1838 No Drapery Seated Liberty design, the first year of issue for the Seated Liberty quarters. Collectors of proof Seated Liberty coinage will have no other opportunity to acquire this issue. This is the ultimate addition to a first-year type collection, representing the Gobrecht design as well as the three-year No Drapery subtype. In April 2008 we offered the Phil Kaufman specimen of the 1839 No Drapery proof quarter, also unique, a coin that realized $517,500. We consider this 1838 even more important than that 1839 proof quarter.

West Brom have inquired about signing striker Obafemi Martins on loan - but his current club Rubin Kazan are only interested in a permanent deal, Press Association Sport understands.
Rubin are looking to recoup around £3 million from off-loading former Newcastle player Martins rather than allowing him to move to the Hawthorns - or anywhere - on a temporary basis.
It is understood his wage demands of around £40,000 a week could also prove a stumbling block.

Plastic is one of the most prominent pollutants of our earth and ocean. It just makes sense to find easy ways to use less!
9 Easy Ways to Use Less Plastic [Infographic]
One Response to "9 Easy Ways to Use Less Plastic [Infographic]"
But isn't plastic less costly (in environmental terms) to manufacture and recycle than glass? By the time you factor in the heavier weight and greater bulk that increases transportation cost and fuel use, the high temperatures needed for manufacture and recycling, etc. glass jars aren't exactly environmentally friendly as a packaging option. The impracticality of serilizing and reusing glass bottles and jars, rather than recycling them, prevents glass being truly environmentally friendly. Just because it's older, doesn't automatically make it a greener option.

I'm emailing on behalf of my elderly neighbours - they are both over 70 and are in receipt of a non-contrib pension. I believe they are entitled to a Line Rental Allowance of €25.90 per month but to date, they have been paying the full line rental. How would they go about setting up their account to be credited with this Line Rental Allowance and also being reimbursed for previous full line rental they have paid?

Hi dinkle78,
When customers become eligible for the social welfare telephone allowance they just need to call the social welfare department and register for the allowance for which they are entitled.
If you ask your neighbours to call the telephone allowance section in the department of Family & social affairs on 1890 500 000 (then press option 5) With all their eircom account details.
The telephone allowance section will contact eircom once they have processed the application to advise they will be pay the line rental for those accounts going forward.
As far as I am aware I believe they also will backdate the line rental (but you may need to check with them)
Many thanks, Mark

RECALL: 1 Million Baby Slings
Well, we knew this was coming, but it's still utterly depressing. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety folks and the Infantino company just recalled a million Infantino "SlingRider" and "Wendy Bellissimo" infant slings. If you have one of these, stop using it immediately. The sling poses a suffocation hazard to young children. Three suffocation deaths occurred in these slings in 2009, including a 7-week-old baby in Philadelphia; a 6-day-old in Salem, Oregon; and a 3-month-old in Cincinnati. Heartbreaking.
Infantino is offering free replacement products, including a Wrap & Tie infant carrier, a 2-in-1 Shopping Cart Cover, or a 3-in-1 Grow & Play Activity Gym. More details here.
