There are a couple stories I'm in the midst of writing, but none are quite ready for primetime. So instead I'd like to chat a bit about music. I'm about to record this week's episode of A Darker Shade of Pagan, and I'm getting ready to see the great Peter Murphy in concert this evening. So music is foremost on my mind. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmKmpgX3MBk Murphy is, of course, a famous student of Sufi mysticism and religion, and that sense of the sacred imbues his work.

Quick Note on Missouri's 'Right-to-Pray' Amendment
In elections held yesterday, Missouri overwhelmingly passed a state constitutional amendment that claims to affirm their religious rights, reinforces a student's "right to pray and acknowledge God voluntarily in their schools," and forces schools to post the Bill of Rights in schools. However, critics of the amendment pointed out that the ballot language doesn't tell the whole story. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oF8Ni6MSTQ"The ballot did not mention language in the amendment allowing s … [Read more...]

Hank uses a shopping trip with Bobby to buy his first wallet, as an opportunity to teach Bobby the value of a dollar. But Hank is evasive and tells Bobby it is vulgar to talk about money when Bobby starts asking questions about how much Hank makes. This only peaks Bobby's curiosity and he enlists Connie and Joseph to help him snoop around the house and look for evidence of how much money the Hills have.
Bobby becomes convinced that they are rich, despite Hank's frugality, when he hears Hank boasting about his yearly bonus and finds some "oil records" in their basement. Angered by Hank's cheapness, Bobby goes on a shopping spree with Hank's emergency credit card - which includes buying a customized ski-doo.
Hank is notified by the credit card company of some unusual activity and goes down to the mall to catch the criminal in the act. He is shocked to learn that it was Bobby, who thinks that they are rich. As Bobby's punishment, he must sell all the merchandise and earn the money to pay the difference. Meanwhile, Hank must also explain exactly what their financial situation is. And because it appears Bobby has learned his lesson, he lets him keep the ski-doo for awhile.

- Great Quality!Review by LPurv
Ordered just one of these for a bridal shower and liked it so much that I'll be ordering a few more instead of renting them for the reception - great quality!(Posted on 12/15/10)
- Very happy I found this site. Size, price and colot options are superior to any other online or brick store I shopped.Review by susan
I was asked to get banquent and square table clothes for a charity craft fair. With so little time before the fair I decided it would be fastest and cheapest to just buy bolts of fabric and hem the edges to the correct size. It was by sheer accident that I came acoss LINENTABLECLOTH.COM.(Posted on 11/21/10)
After checking out warehouse fabric supplers and outlets, the cost was so much more than I had anticipated plus the poly fabric that was being sold for tableclothes was so loosely woven that the scratched and painted tableops would show through.
The reviews were very helpful in convincing me that with these tablecloths the table surface would not show though - thereby creating a clean space for the crafters to exhibit their sale items.
- These are great quality!Review by Kristen
These came on time and are very high quality. I hate ironing tableclothes but these are easy. I looked into renting linens and this is so much cheaper. You can keep them for less than renting. If you are hesitant at all to purchase linens from this sight, don't be. I am a very picky person and I am impressed.(Posted on 11/12/10)
- Truly Affordable EleganceReview by Carol
I purchased 20 of these tablecloths for my daughter's wedding. They ironed easily and were simply stunning with the overlays and cloth napkins. I also purchased 200 chair covers and sashes and it created such a beautiful venue that my caterer actually purchased them from me immediately following the wedding.(Posted on 11/4/10)
- Beautiful FabricReview by Erin
Beautiful fabric at a great price! Natural sheen to the fabric for an elegant look especially when paired with an overlay or runner! Great product and reusing helps save our enviornment!(Posted on 11/3/10)

Though ProElite's heavyweight-laden card from Moline, Ill. on Saturday didn't exactly receive rave reviews, former UFC champ Andrei Arlovski provided fireworks with his last minute head-kick KO of Travis Fulton. The official time for that KO was 4:59 in the third round. Fulton's name may ring a bell because he is the fighter who would fight you if the price was right. His record fell to 247-49-10, with a career that started in 1996. Arlovski now has two wins in a row under ProElite after suffering four straight losses in Strikeforce and Affliction.

Sage TXL-F Fly Rod - 4 PieceView Larger Image
- Colors
- Detail Images
Ditch the crowds, pack your backpack with the TXL-F, and explore new waters.
Wickedly lightweight, the Sage TXL-F 4-Piece Fly Rod impresses with its sensitivity and ability to fish teeny flies with super-light tippet. Ideal for fishing small meadow streams, spring creeks, and beaver ponds, this freshwater beauty was designed to get you away from the crowds and deep into the backcountry.
- Micro Ferrule technology enables the TXL-F to be 33% lighter than its nearly weightless predecessor (TXL), provides better energy transfer, and enhances your feel of the rod
- Moderate-to-fast action flex gives you a versatile rod that's able to fish in a wide range of situations and provide good control and hook setting allowances
- Generation 5 technology (use of graphite hoop fibers instead of traditional glass hoop fibers) makes for a lighter, more responsive rod with exceptional feel
- Snub-nosed half-wells grip give you an enhanced feel in the cast, more control, and is ideal for those who like support of his or her thumb
- Four-piece configuration makes it compact, easier to transport, and reduces the case length for backcountry travel
- Bronze anodized reel seat with natural walnut insert and high-quality cork grip round out the components
- Cloth bag and 5/8-inch antique aluminum tube protect the TXL-F during transport and storage
- For an overall smooth casting system Sage recommends you go with the its Double Taper Fly Line and a Click Series Fly Reel (both are sold separately)

Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti
|All purpose flour
|2 1⁄2 Cup (40 tbs)
|1 Pinch
|Unsweetened cocoa powder
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|Baking soda
|1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Baking powder
|3⁄4 Teaspoon
|1 1⁄4 Cup (20 tbs)
|1 Teaspoon
|1 Cup (16 tbs), toasted and skinned
|1 Tablespoon
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it.
In a medium bowl, stir the flour, salt, cocoa, baking soda, and baking powder together.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs until blended.
Stir in the sugar.
Add the aniseed and flour mixture and stir to make a soft dough.
Divide the dough in half.
On a lightly floured board, pat out each half of dough to form a 6-inch square.
Scatter the hazelnuts over each square and push them into the dough.
Roll each square into a flattened log about 2 inches wide and 12 to 15 inches long.
Beat the egg with the water to make the egg wash.
Brush each log with the egg wash.
Bake the biscotti until they are firm to the touch, about 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven, leaving the oven on.
Transfer the biscotti to a cutting board and let cool for several minutes.
Using a large serrated knife, cut the logs into 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices.
Return to the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Turn the slices over and bake for 10 minutes.
Let cool on wire racks.
Store in an airtight container.

He should say it — right?
Remember my friend Sam? Well, he's just hilarious…especially when he's "sipping (lots of) tequila from his living room in NH" and drafting open letters and emails to me.

A bad place to be
Back in high school, I saw my friend's boyfriend making out with someone who was not my friend at another high school's homecoming game.

When you can't adopt just one
It's exciting to think about the prospect of a new puppy.
Careful research and planning are necessary to ensure you get the right type of dog that will suit your family and lifestyle, and preparing your environment — readying the back yard and home, purchasing a crate, new puppy toys, etc. — is done before the puppy arrives.
Then comes the dilemma: You're at the shelter, faced with the possibility of saving two lives instead of one, or the breeder's home, looking at the last two pups in the litter, which the breeder agrees to give you a deal on so as not to separate them.
You begin to wonder, "Why not take two?"
Most of us don't take on new puppies very often, and chances are, the details of the trials and tribulations that went into raising your last puppy have faded. The reality of nearly around-the-clock care and supervision kicks in as soon as you bring a puppy home, and the effort required nearly doubles when you bring home two.
Of great concern is the need to treat each pup as an individual and develop a relationship with each puppy separately. Competition for your time and attention can cause puppies to squabble with each other, and create a stressful atmosphere. It is important that each puppy learn to be relaxed and confident without the other.
Training and the majority of play with you should also occur with one pup at a time, so this means double the time spent with basic house manners and training overall.
Pups need their own identity, so similar names should be avoided — Rex and Tex would not be good choices, but Skippy and Dash are unique in both sound and syllable. Puppy is taught his name in the absence of the other by saying his name and acknowledging his eye contact with you in response.
Although puppies will share a bowl at mealtime, this can create competition over food, which results in stress and conflict between pups, resource guarding and too much or too little food consumption. Separate bowls, located away from each other, work best.
Puppies need the benefit of a crate — to sleep in at night, and as a training aid in house manners. Siblings should not share a crate, no matter how much they enjoy each other's company. Crate time is for rest and relaxation, and practice at being comfortable while alone.
I believe that having two dogs can be of benefit to the entire family, but raising two puppies at the same time is not something I would ever recommend.
Plan carefully, choose wisely and devote all of your available time to properly raising and educating a puppy through adolescence into young adulthood. And if you still have the energy, funds and stamina after all of that, then it's time to look for compatible puppy No. 2.

Telephone Interviews(c)
By Michael Casey
Telephone interviews are a new feature of the modern world. With so many people chasing those jobs, it's the fastest way to sort the wheat from the chaff. There are good and bad points to it. The interviewer can be sat on the bed in a 4star hotel with a nice bottle of wine gently breathing beside him as he asks questions over the phone. As for the interviewee he can be in his dressing gown with 5 days worth of stubble on his face, his hair unwashed and uncombed, a hole in his slippers. Then politely they talk about the skill set the interviewee can bring to the task, how much experience he has doing this and doing that. The interviewer can ask the interviewee to hold the line as there is another call coming in, and he does apologise. So the interviewee is left on hold while the interviewer finishes his glass of wine and pours himself another glass. The interviewee pastes his hair down with spit even though he cannot be seen, but while on hold he will tidy himself up a bit. The interviewer watches the sports headlines on Sky TV before having another sip from his glass before resuming the interview. Questions about experience and future career paths are posed and answered. The interviewee feels confident and smiles at himself in the mirror. The interviewer loosens his belt and lets his stomach out. The interview is concluded.
Mr Unkempt gets through to the next round. This time he has to SSS* which means exactly what it says, SSS. He spends ages in the bathroom , more than his sisters did when he used to live at home. He wears his best shiny black shoes, only for the laces to snap, so then he has to hunt around to find a lace that matches his shoes. Only he cannot, so he steals a navy one from a different pair of shoes. He looks in the mirror to see if its noticeable, and it is, so he loosens his belt, so his trousers hang lower so that they hide his shoes, only problem is that with his fat belly his trousers might fall off completely. That would certainly make an impression at the interview. If he was applying for a farce actor's position then it would be great, Brian Rix would be impressed. The interviewer is a power dresser, his 1000pound suit compared to the 49.99 one worn by the interviewee. And yes the laces are noticed, immediately.
Positive body language v negative body language, neutral body language. Arms folded, arms open, open legs with hands on top of knees. Licking of lips, eyes skyward, eyes averted, eyes straight and looking into the soul.
The usual interview so to speak. Then the waiting for a letter in the post, or an email for fail.
Happy Interviews everybody.

We're into February, traditionally when flu season peaks, and there's been barely a hint of the illness on the Peninsula, statewide or even across the country. "We really haven't seen much flu yet. I think the important word is yet," says David Trump, director of the Peninsula Health District.
Trump received the first lab confirmation of a local flu case on Tuesday. "We may be at the very beginning of it finally," he adds.
"For all practical purposes, we are not having any flu. It's a little bit unusual. In most years, flu has been widespread into April," says Bill Berg, director of the Hampton Health Department. He warns against getting lulled into thinking there'll be no flu season this year — and advises that it's not too late to get the flu vaccine. "It could change," he says. "This is atypical, but there have been years nationally when the peak occurred in April."
Diane Woolard, state epidemiologist for the state Department of Health, concurs. "We don't know when or if it will come. It's always unpredictable. It could still be around the corner," she says. "We want to encourage the flu vaccine. It's not too late to be protected."
While the experts condone the flu vaccine for personal protection, they do not attribute the slow flu season to it. It takes the immunization of 90 percent of a population to prevent an outbreak, according to Berg. The Centers for Disease Control reports that last year 42 percent of the population received the vaccine by the end of March. This year's figures show a 4 percent increase in the number receiving flu shots at the beginning of the season.
While flu hasn't made its presence felt yet, other viruses that cause respiratory distress, such as the common cold and RSV, have increased and are keeping pace with predicted seasonal activity, says Trump.
The symptoms of flu include fever, headache, chills, cough and sore throat; they occur from one to three days after exposure and usually last for about a week. It is spread by coughing and sneezing and is most serious in young children, the elderly, and those with compromised immune systems.
What to do about the flu
•It's not too late to get a flu shot;
• If you get the flu, stay home;
• Cover your mouth and nose when you cough and sneeze;
• Wash your hands frequently.

Let PR Governments Sell Bonds, All Promises Will Be Fulfilled
The issue frequently raised by UMNO against Pakatan Rakyat is our inability to fulfill all our election promises.
But what not many people know is that State Governments in Malaysia are not allowed to borrow money, sell bonds or even make loans with local banks without the express permission of Bank Negara.
For Barisan Nasional governments, they can get loans from the Federal Governments. But, for Pakatan Rakyat states, that is not an option. Go ask Kelantan State governments and they can tell you with utmost details.
The election manifesto was drawn with the assumption that the respective state governments will be able to make loans in whatever legal way possible. Unfortunately, being a primitive minded party like UMNO dan Barisan Nasional, that right is consistently denied.
So, the respective Pakatan governments has to spend time and effort to raise the necessary revenues first before being able to implement a program within the election manifesto.
In truth, it's not that the election manifesto of Pakatan States not fulfilled. They are delayed in it's implementation due to lengthy fund raising and revenue increasing exercise.
So, it's just evil for the Barisan Nasional to blame Pakatan Rakyat for not being able to fulfill all their promises considering the "SABOTAGE" done by Barisan Nasional upon the state government ruled by Pakatan Rakyat.

US Manufacturing Grows At Fastest Pace In 2½ Years
WASHINGTON (AP) – U.S. manufacturing grew in November at the fastest pace in 2½ years as factories ramped up production, stepped up hiring and received orders at a healthy clip.
The Institute for Supply Management said Monday that its index of manufacturing activity rose to 57.3. That was up from 56.4 in October and was the highest since April 2011. A reading above 50 signals growth.
One component of the index, a measure of hiring, rose to its highest level in nearly 18 months. And a gauge of export orders reached its highest level in nearly two years. Overseas demand is benefiting from modest recoveries in Europe, Japan and China.
Manufacturing activity has now expanded for six straight months after hitting a rough patch in the spring. The steady gains suggest that growth is remaining healthy in the current October-December quarter.

U.S. Unemployment Rate Falls To 7.7 Percent
WASHINGTON — The U.S. economy added 146,000 jobs in November and the unemployment rate fell to 7.7 percent, the lowest since December 2008. The government said Superstorm Sandy had only a minimal effect on the figures.
The Labor Department's report today offered a mixed picture of the economy.
Hiring remained steady during the storm and in the face of looming tax increases. But the government said employers added 49,000 fewer jobs in October and September than it initially estimated.
And the unemployment rate fell to a four-year low in November from 7.9 percent in October mostly because more people stopped looking for work and weren't counted as unemployed.
Oktoberfest To Expand At ArtsQuest's SteelStacks
Oktoberfest, the most successful new festival in the first year of ArtsQuest's SteelStacks campus in 2011, returns in October with new food, new contests and advance tickets that save festival-goers up to 25 percent, it was announced Monday.
The celebration of autumn and the Lehigh Valley's Germanic heritage, set for Oct. 5-7 and 12-14, will retain its most popular components: music, food, activities and, of course, beer. And it will have the same title sponsor: D.G. Yuengling & Son brewers.
"The first Oktoberfest celebration at SteelStacks was a huge hit, with nearly 25,000 people coming out," said ArtsQuest Vice President of Marketing and Public Relations Curt Mosel. "This year's festival will feature even more attractions and special events, with something for all ages."
Yuengling announced that the Yuengling Oktoberfest beer debuted at last year's festival "was so well received that it will make a triumphant return in kegs and now bottles for 2012," Yuengling Marketing Manager Jen Holtzman said.

Pennsylvania Jobless Rates Dips Again

A Good October Poem :)
I know a brute
who eats rotten fruit,
farmers hogs
and occasionally stray dogs.
He doesn't make a fuss
over sores that pus,
or body odor so foul
it's like a hundred dead owls.
His revolting smile
makes my stomach churn bile.
His gums have begun oozing,
it's my lunch that I'm losing.
His breath could rot wood
and kill Red Riding Hood.
Bring strong men to their knees
begging spare their lives please.
His hair has more lice
than a sewer has mice.
His hands comb like big rakes
then it snows with great flakes.
Sometime he farts a great melody,
but usually it's silent and deadly.
He can belch a great chorus
and clear an acre of forest.
But he's not unhappy in the least
since his wife's the Wicked Witch of the East.
Wasn't she squashed by a house you say?
Yes, so he killed Scarecrow and used all his hay.
Then Cowardly Lion who just got his courage,
was all chopped up and added to the porridge.
Dorothy and Toto were next on the list,
so he ground them to a pulp with his big giant fist.
What about the Tinman, what happened to him?
Well he's the brute I'm talking about, his name is Tim.
He wore the costume so all would not see,
the monster inside who just wanted to live free.
So how do I know him, am I his friend?
No, I'm just a fly on the wall whose life's coming to an end.
Heed my warning; you're not in Kansas anymore.
This land of Oz hides grisly creatures galore.

I know it's a long shot but I personally grew up playing naval based games and would like to work towards something of this level. Something that's worrying me about using an engine is having one that would be able to support features such as waves without effecting the performance.
Some of my time is spent in making 3D ocean going vessels of all sizes, which I have imported into a couple simulations. People are pleased that the Indie and Pro versions of Unity 3D have excellent performance with any one of several ocean simulators which you may plug into the Unity engine. In my opinion, the Triton SDK provides a good balance of quality and performance when used with Unity 3D.
The default water for the no cost (free) version of Unity will be an adequate place holder until you gain enough experience with Unity to justify an upgrade to Indy or Pro.
Perhaps you may want to look seriously into this sooner rather than later. Follow the link under the video for this water system:
The Triton SDK is very flexible and would give you the opportunity to learn the way that creating water should be done in a game or simulation. In the meantime, there are some third party water libraries for Unity that are no cost or very affordable.
In your coding, you must put the water into memory management and thread allocation to get superior performance. Since dynamic water is somewhat demanding on computer performance, you will need memory management and processing allocation in order to have the realism that everyone wants. The C++ libraries are very capable in these areas. Use the coding languages recommended by Unity and your ocean simulation of choice, rather than recompiling. (Once you become experienced, then recompiling will be a viable option.) A comprehensive SDK like Triton would be essential. There are other fantastic water simulators out there, too, so have a look at them, such as a fantastic Russian Ocean Simulation SDK (There are 3 of them from Russia, but I mean the highest quality ones), but the name eludes me at the moment.
I recommend that you establish major areas in his order:
1) Terrain
2) Import a simple user controlled object and code it to be manipulated by the end user (you at this point). This is a test.
3) Sky
4) Ocean
5) Import a complex object such as a ship which you like, configure it in Unity 3D, and add any coding along your long term game development functionality.
Start simple in these areas. Learn game development by Version Control system. Examples are Alpha, Beta, and Version numbers [ Alpha 0.1 thru Alpha 9.9 (higher or lower by need), Beta 0.1 thru Beta 9.9 (or whatever needed), and Version 1.0 thru Version 1.1 thru Version 9.9 ] You may use your own system of numbering at this stage, but a couple hours into research online about Source Control will result in many hours of increased productivity and happier development. Keep copies of every version stage of your game development!
Make one simple game and finish it. Create a second simple, but improved game and finish it. Develop a third more complex game and complete it. Working in stages helps the evolution of coding. Kill the very inferior coding after a lot of hard attempt at a feature of the game with no success. If it works, then do a better job at coding next round of development. End any game development which becomes so muddled that you get lost or can not debug it any further and start another one. Keep any useable coding as a springboard to dive into deeper game development. Your coding will improve on the next game.
One last piece of advice: Look for publications on developing a game using Unity 3D on Amazon or other sites, as well as get recommendations from Unity 3D developers on good instruction manuals for coding in that engine.
Work hard and enjoy!

Beer Tasting, Antwerp
10 Reviews
10 Reviews
The St Anna Tunnel is the fascinating 32 metre deep, 528 metre long, foot and cycle crossing under the river. Finished in 1933 this was the first permanent link between the city centre and the left bank and the cylindrical, tile-lined, tunnel is accessed by its original wooden escalators and is well worth a visit both as a historic monument and for the opportunity to get a skyline view from the other side.
Personally I found the return crossing thirsty work which is how I happened to drop into the wonderfully cosy little Cafe Corso. This is an atmospheric, one-room, locals bar with some terrace seating on its little square. Being winter the outside seating wasn't in use but the bar itself, with its couple of barstools and maybe half-a-dozen tables, was welcoming and characterful..
A swift Stella was more than enjoyed, and very reasonably-priced, but unfortunately I still had things to do and so bade my farewells a bit sooner than I would have preferred. But definitely due for a revisit next time and perhaps revamp this as a "nightlife" tip ;-)
Apart from Kulminator, mentioned earlier we tried a couple of other bars on our travels around town. They were -
Waagstuk, Staadswaag 10, good choice of beers to amuse us for an hour and being a little way from the centre of town, slightly cheaper. Enjoyed.
Engel, Grote Markt 3, old and comfortable cafe, well worth a visit.
Mind boggling amount of drinks to choose from, some very rare it seemed. My first chance to try trappist ale from the Sint Sixtus abbey - Westvleteren amber - very good. Comfortable and friendly surroundings, not just for a rainy day.
We visited on a very wet and cold afternoon and the question arose, and maybe I'll ask it on the misc forum oneday - "when it rains what do people who don't drink do?" couldn't find a good answer ourselves.
Anyway back to Kulminator, apart from the beer a decent range of snacks on offer too and the pub cat is very friendly.
This place was amazing. We sampled the cheeses and the beers made by the monks in the cafe across the street. The Cafe is run by the monks and it is called Cafe Trappist. Definately go if you like going off the beaten path.
Antwerp is well-known as a great BEER TASTING spot, as there are a lot of different kinds of beer to try.
The Belgians say their beers are the best in the world -- but so say the Dutch and the Germans and I must say our Canadian Beer is pretty darn good too - Molson Canadian eh!
Typical for Antwerp is "Bolleke" ( little bowl ). It's a special bowl-shaped glass filled with the local specialty " De Koninck ".
no matter what part of Belgium you are in, no matter what you do, sit down in a local pub and try Belgian beer. Duvel is Belgium's best known beer. It's even considered to be the champagne of Belgian beer.
The one that I liked the best though, was Kriek. It's a Lambic beer in which a further fermentation has been brought about with the addition of cherries or raspberries. Very refreshing in summer :)
We picked Antwerp for a beer drinking weekend because I had fond (but fuzzy) memories of it from a previous visit in 1994.
We found a number of fantastic bars selling fantastic beers (only some of which left me unable to walk).
I recommend you walk about town and pick an interesting bar and try a new beer.
Or genever!
De Koninck is the local beer. It's nicknamed "de Bolleke" due to the shape of its glass. It's best served with some aged cheese or peanuts. Not to be missed for its balanced taste and freshness, united to a persistent aftertaste.
There is a bewildering selection of beers to be found in Antwerp. Those who know all about them will have fun tracking down the different types in the different bars (Richie's made a career of it) but if you don't know what's what you could just make a random selection from the beer card. As long as it doesn't say "banana beer" you will probably be in for a treat. And remember that each beer in Belgium comes with its own special glass too.
This is on eof the more unusual beer glasses - that of Kwak. I actually got this beer because the waitress misheard me when I asked for Kriek, but who's to complain - it's a great beer.
For those who love beer, i guess you won't miss out on this activity... This shop has all kinds of Belgian beer.
Haven't acquired the liking for beer though!

There's surely a promotion problem, and there's surely been an economic problem: but the main problem is unfortunately probably more serious. In the overall scheme of things, motorcycling is a pretty small niche sport- and roadracing is a small niche within that.
I'm starting to feel that roadracing is just not engaging enough for many fans (for lack of a better word) these day- the mid age-range folks are losing interest and the young ones aren't getting any. As brutal and difficult as the racing is, without an appreciation of what the riders are actually doing it looks unexciting compared to, say, supercross. And that's in person. It's even worse from a TV perspective-- as roadracing doesn't work well with the "switch the camera/image every 2-4 seconds" viewing that today's seemingly ADD-afflicted young fans need.
I've been watching/enjoying this stuff since the late 60's. Been peaks and valleys for sure- but it "feels" more serious now.

Cooperation with the Islamic Development Bank in supporting the formulation and review of science, technology and innovation policies for African Member States
In December 2011, UNESCO and the Islamic Development Bank (IDB) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in supporting the formulation and review of science, technology and innovation (STI) policies for African Member States. The MoU builds on and reinforces the existing general framework MoU signed in 1977 between the two organizations.
Thanks to this MoU, signed by UNESCO Director-General and President of the Islamic Development Bank, Dr Ahmad Mohamed Ali Al Madani, potential joint initiatives are being identified to promote collaboration in supporting common African Member States in the field of STI. The aim is to help the two organizations' African member countries in drafting national policies devoted to supporting sciences and technologies in addition to launching practical programmes related to development needs.
UNESCO and the Islamic Development bank have also been cooperating in different areas in the field of Education through project implementation in different regions of the world.

September 24~October 1, 2011
American Library Association
Banned Books Week (BBW)
is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of the First Amendment. Held during the last week of September, Banned Books Week highlights the benefits of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the harms of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted bannings of books across the United States.
Intellectual freedom–the freedom to access information and express ideas, even if the information and ideas might be considered unorthodox or unpopular–provides the foundation for Banned Books Week. BBW stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of unorthodox or unpopular viewpoints for all who wish to read and access them.
The books featured during Banned Books Week have been targets of attempted bannings. Fortunately, while some books were banned or restricted, in a majority of cases the books were not banned, all thanks to the efforts of librarians, teachers, booksellers, and members of the community to retain the books in the library collections. Imagine how many more books might be challenged–and possibly banned or restricted–if librarians, teachers, and booksellers across the country did not use Banned Books Week each year to teach the importance of our First Amendment rights and the power of literature, and to draw attention to the danger that exists when restraints are imposed on the availability of information in a free society.
Banned Books Week is sponsored by the American Booksellers Association; American Booksellers Foundation for Free… Continue reading
" In one volume, Mounting Evidence provides the most important evidence accumulated over many years that calls into question the government's account of 9/11. Any citizen of conscience reading it will demand a new investigation." -Mike Gravel, United States Senate, 1969-1981
There's little doubt the tragic attacks on 9/11 soon became the defining events of our time, shaping much of what has followed. But even now, over a decade later, how well does the public actually understand them? Other researchers have written about key facets of 9/11-the fall of World Trade Center buildings, the air-defense failures, the backgrounds of the hijackers, or the role of the Saudi funders. This impressively researched volume, however, is the first comprehensive treatment of the many different angles. It connects the dots to reveal disturbing patterns. Years after many of us thought the Crime of the Century was solved, "case closed" additional evidence demands a closer look. These findings, which Dr. Rea presents in a lively, accessible way, call out for a new investigation. In Mounting Evidence , Dr. Rea shows how, by understanding the shattering events of that dark day, Americans can end seemingly endless wars, take back personal liberties they've lost, and restore their democracy.
About the Author
Paul W. Rea is a professor of humanities and has taught at Ohio State University and St. Mary's College of California. Now a full-time researcher, writer, and activist, he works on peace and environmental issues. This is Rea's third book.

'Most journalists in the United States believe the press here is free. That grand illusion only helps obscure the fact that, by and large, the US corporate press does not report what's really going on, while tuning out, or laughing off, all those who try to do just that. Americans — now more than ever — need those outlets that do labor to report some truth. Project Censored is not just among the bravest, smartest, and most rigorous of those outlets, but the only one that's wholly focused on those stories that the corporate press ignores, downplays and/or distorts. This latest book is therefore a must-read for anyone who cares about this country, its tottering economy, and–most important–what's now left of its democracy." —Mark Crispin Miller, professor of media ecology, NYU

CIA Criminal Revolving Door: CIA Officer "Albert" Involved in False Intelligence Linking Al-Qaeda to Iran, Iraq
by Kevin Fenton
Reprimanded for Torture, Retired, then Back to CIA as a Contractor
A recent book by former FBI agent Ali Soufan shows that the same CIA officer was involved in generating intelligence that falsely linked al-Qaeda to first Iran and then Iraq. The officer was also involved in a notorious torture episode and was reprimanded by the Agency's inspector general.
The officer, who Soufan refers to as "Fred," but whose real first name is "Albert" according to a February 2011 Associated Press article, served at the CIA station in Jordan in 1999. During that time, al-Qaeda, aided by a collection of freelance terrorists headed by Abu Zubaidah, attempted to commit a series of attacks in the country, known as the Millennium Plot. However, the attacks were foiled by the local Jordanian intelligence service, working with the CIA and FBI.
During the investigations of the plotters, Albert drafted a series of official cables that were later withdrawn. Although the withdrawing of the cables was first mentioned in a July 2006 article by Lawrence Wright for the New Yorker, Wright did not mention what was in the cables or by whom they were drafted. The content of one of them and the drafter were first revealed upon the publication of Soufan's book in mid-September 2011.
According to Soufan, one of the twelve withdrawn cables falsely stated that the group of… Continue reading

In mid-October 2011, I posted a review of David Ray Griffin's new book, 9/11 Ten Years Later — When State Crimes Against Democracy Succeed at Amazon, here.
Dear Readers,
Please submit your comments on this article at the link to Amazon, provided below by Mr. Strahl. 911Truth.org published this article; the author is not available to be reached through email to this site. We look forward to reading your comments there.
This review drew comments from James B, one of the two top people at Screw Loose Change, a leading "debunking" website used as a reference by many an internet opponent of 9/11 truth. The result was a major debunking of Screw Loose Change. This piece is intended to help those who in the future will go up against the likes of Screw Loose Change, since the trap's nature is both the content of the SLC argument as well as its form. The focus of our exchange was the evidence regarding events at the World Trade Center (WTC) on 9/11, where three steel frame high-rises were destroyed. This is the part of my review which is relevant to the debate:
Being someone with an engineering degree, it's no surprise that I find the strongest part to be Chapters 2 through 4, which deal with the three steel hi-rises which came down on 9/11. Chapter 2 has been posted previously on the web as an article, a challenge to left-leaning despisers of 9/11 truth to explain nine apparent miracles required to explain how the official story could be made congruent with the physical evidence.…Continue reading

Noble Lie: A myth or untruth knowingly told by the elite to maintain social harmony, or the social position of the elite. – The Republic, Plato
The 1995 bombing in Oklahoma City was a direct blow to the heart of America. One hundred sixty-eight people were killed, including nineteen children. For those watching the nightly news, terrorism had come home. For years following the bombing, countless victims' family members, survivors, rescuers and ordinary Americans have questioned the official accounts about that fateful day.
Hoping to shed light on answers long ignored and censored, both by prominent media outlets and the U.S. government, A Noble Lie peels back what we thought we knew about the bombing and its perpetrators. This film exposes information never before examined or brought to the attention of the American public.
A Noble Lie is the culmination of years of research and documentation conducted by independent journalists, scholars and ordinary citizens. Often risking their personal safety and sanity, they have gathered evidence which threatens to expose the startling reality of what exactly occurred at 9:02 am on April 19, 1995 in Oklahoma City.
Utilizing footage and eyewitness testimony, previously unseen,
A Noble Lie will change forever the way you look at the true nature of terrorism.

Huff, Mickey and Project Censored, Eds. Censored 2012: The Top Censored
Stories and Media Analysis of 2012. New York: Seven Stories Press, September
2011. $19.95.
Even more than its predecessors, Censored 2012 makes for highly engaging and
informative reading. This collection is a well mixed bag containing much that
we need to know but too often don't.
This deficit occurs because many Americans are, in Neil Postman's memorable
phrase, "amusing ourselves to death" and in part because many exhibit
an aversion to discussing issues. But above all the deficit results from increased
media malpractice and censorship. When a study shows that regular viewers of
Fox News are less informed–and likely more misinformed–than those
who don't follow the news, something is seriously amiss.
According to editor Mickey Huff, the corporate media are serving up a diet
of "junk-food news to avoid telling the public what is really going on
at home and abroad" (p. 12). If this strikes many readers as obvious,
fewer seem fully aware of just how pervasive this censorship has become–how
very little coverage many significant issues receive.
As a result, even Americans who consider themselves informed don't understand
how their government attempts to minimize or even eliminate public awareness.
On the climactic final day of the Durban Conference on Climate Change, NPR's
"Science Friday" featured a long segment on bedbugs (12/9/11). Censored
2012 reveals that even less coverage–none at all, in fact–is afforded
to ongoing federal preparations to… Continue reading

This wonderful new book by Jon Gold, with foreword by Cindy Sheehan, is now available in digital format from either Amazon or Smashwords, so you can choose the format that works best for you.
"9/11 Truther" is the story about an everyday American who saw that something was wrong with what we were told about 9/11, and tried to do something about it.
"This book is part autobiography and part chronicle of the 9/11 Truth Movement over the last ten years, from Jon's perspective as a participant. His telling of this story is supported with examples of his writing, as well as communications he's received from people over the years, both positive and negative. … The book is informative and enlightening, and nakedly, emotionally honest. A unique and valuable contribution." Erik Larson
"Essential reading for those who have ever dismissed anyone as crazy for questioning what we were told about 911. Jon Gold is no conspiracy theorist, just an ordinary decent American who has questions." Neil Deaken
"Jon Gold's story is interesting in at least two respects: first, next to Paul Thompson, he has compiled more information about 9/11 over the past 10+ years than anyone I know, and has synthesized the results in a fair-minded way to illustrate the many demonstrable ambiguities and lies of the official 9/11 narrative; and second, he has articulated what it is to be involved in a social movement that exists on the fringe and that contains its share… Continue reading

Mounting Evidence: Why We Need a New Investigation into 9-11 , By Paul W. Rea, PhD
As Dr. Paul Rea states in Mounting Evidence , the 9-11 story is the 21st Century's "ultimate mass murder mystery."
Mounting Evidence makes good on the promise implied in this tantalizing quote with a 555 page book that is not only well researched and comprehensive, but is presented in a lively and engaging writing style, ensuring a good read. These characterizations only begin to describe the book's relevance, however, for Mounting Evidence focuses directly on the larger importance of 9-11. What does this event mean, in terms of its origins, in terms of the cover-up of the true facts by a rigged "investigation" by a rigged 9-11 Commission and in terms of the negative effects on U.S. foreign and military policy, even now? With his multiple foci on "meaningful contexts," the "Global Domination Project" of the United States, the "Official Story," and the currently available evidence about 9-11, Rea uses his excellent command of all sources to explicate a very complex and multi-faceted subject clearly and compellingly.
Dr. Rea's ultimate goal is "restorative truth" to help revitalize our failing democracy, which must have an educated and active population if it is to be maintained even at its current low level. Mounting Evidence points out that such truth can only be arrived at through a new investigation by a truly independent group with the power to get to the bottom of… Continue reading
Jon Gold, 9/11 Truther: The Fight for Peace, Justice and Accountability . Foreword by Cindy Sheehan. ePublishPartners.com, 2012.
9/11 Truther is an important book because it both renders leading personalities in the movement and also displays wide, well researched knowledge of many key issues.
As one of the first 9/11 memoirs, 9/11 Truther takes readers into the life of an activist, now 40, who's been an important player on the East Coast and in the blogosphere. Jon Gold went to Hebrew school and took his Bar Mitzvah. Later, as he moved into "calling out" people he believed were hurting the movement with their wild speculations, Gold encountered vicious anti-Semitism. Consequences included high blood pressure, chronic depression, and, later, panic attacks (pp. 112-115). The book does not, however, explore broader questions of anti-Semitism in the 9/11 movement.
The first few dozen pages recount how Gold got into drugs, attempted suicide, and joined narcotics anonymous. Though the first 55 pages or so could strike readers as largely, perhaps overly autobiographical, they do capture key moments in the movement.
Unlike some "truthers," Gold doesn't claim to have "woken up" right away, almost before the smoke had cleared. After 9/11, he worked as a web developer and did the "patriotic" things, placing a small American flag on the company website.

A Surreal Journey into the Heart of the Beast Called the Police State
In this startling new memoir, Sibel Edmonds–the most classified woman in U.S. history–takes us on a surreal journey that begins with the secretive FBI and down the dark halls of a feckless Congress to a stonewalling judiciary and finally, to the national security whistleblowers movement she spearheaded. Having lived under Middle East dictatorships, Edmonds knows firsthand what can happen when government is allowed to operate in secret. Hers is a sobering perspective that combines painful experience with a rallying cry for the public's right to know and to hold the lawbreakers accountable. With U.S. citizens increasingly stripped of their rights in a calibrated media blackout, Edmonds' story is a wake-up call for all Americans who, willingly or unwillingly, traded liberty for illusive security in the wake of 9/11.
[Purchasing information here: BoilingFrogsPost.
In Mounting Evidence, Paul W. Rea, PhD, delivers an amply-researched critique of the 9/11 Commission and debunks the War on Terror. There's little doubt the tragic attacks on 9/11 soon became the defining events of our time, shaping much of what has followed. But even now, over a decade later, how well does the public actually understand them? Other researchers have written about key facets of 9/11 — the fall of World Trade Center buildings, the air-defense failures, the backgrounds of the hijackers, or the role of the Saudi funders. In Mounting Evidence, Dr. Rea shows how, by understanding the shattering events of that dark day, Americans can end seemingly endless wars and take back personal liberties they've lost.
Dr. Rea feels so committed to bringing historical truth to the events of 9/11 that he has made his book, Mounting Evidence, available on Amazon.com.
Dr. Paul W. Rea has taught humanities at Ohio State University, the University of Northern Colorado and St. Mary's College of California. Now a full-time researcher and writer, Dr. Rea focuses on political, peace and environmental issues.

New 9/11 Timeline Entries: Hijacking Exercises, Air Force One's Movements, Laura Bush on Sept. 11, and More
History Commons is only halfway towards its summer fundraising goal. Please contribute generously to help the History Commons stay alive and functioning.
A large number of entries have been added to the Complete 9/11 Timeline at History Commons, most of which provide new details about the events of the day of September 11, 2001.
Other entries are being posted in the US Civil Liberties project on campaign finance, voting laws, and indefinite detentions.
New 9/11 Entries
One new timeline entry describes a training exercise based on the scenario of a possible terrorist attack that was run on the morning of September 11 by the US Coast Guard in Tampa Bay, Florida, quite close to Sarasota, where the president was at the time. Another entry deals with a meeting scheduled to take place at the Pentagon that morning, regarding a planned "disaster exercise" at the nearby Navy Annex building.
An entry reveals that a number of FBI agents had, for reasons that are unknown, already arrived at the Navy Annex when the Pentagon was hit. Later on, the Navy set up a new command center at the Navy Annex, after its original command center was destroyed in the Pentagon attack.

By Dr. Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed
September 24, 2012
Jon Gold's '9/11 Truther' is a must-read for a number of reasons. On the one hand, I hate the title. Although I've done my part in challenging the official narrative around 9/11 and international terrorism for the last decade, I've never been a great fan of the language of the 'truth movement', which, to me, smacks of an almost religious, cult-like sensibility. And I've been increasingly perturbed by the proliferation of ridiculous theories masquerading as activism, much of which has simply served to distract from the hard task of challenging power. In particular, I've been revolted by the conspiracy theory industry itself that… Continue reading

International Hearings on the Events of September 11, 2001 It is with great excitement that I announce the release of the Final Report of the Toronto Hearings, which is titled The 9/11 Toronto Report. It is now available for purchase on Amazon.com, for a reduced introductory price of $12.76. I encourage you to review the content of the book using Amazon's "Look Inside" feature, and if you like the book, leave a positive five-star review. The book has already received a one-star review from someone who has not read the book, and we need to counteract these kinds of reviews.
The 9/11 Toronto Report is a collection of essays submitted by the witnesses who presented at the International Hearings on the Events of September 11, 2001, which were held in Toronto, Canada over the 10th Anniversary of the attacks. I collected the essays, edited them, and arranged them into the chapters you find in the book. I believe it is the most succinct, comprehensive, and persuasive written treatment of the best evidence against the official story for 9/11 that has been produced to date. Those experts who contributed chapters include David Ray Griffin, Kevin Ryan, Peter Dale Scott, Graeme MacQueen, David Chandler, Richard Gage and many others.
The 9/11 Toronto Report also contains a written report and recommendation from each of the four distinguished panelists who heard the evidence presented over the four days of hearings and questioned the witnesses. These include two eminent Canadian… Continue reading
Huff, Mickey S., and Andy Lee Roth, eds. Censored 2013: Dispatches From the Media Revolution. New York: Seven Stories Press, October 2012. 468 pp. $19.95
Review by Paul W. Rea, PhD
Project Censored has delivered another timely and essential book. The passion and commitment of editors Prof. Mickey Huff and Dr. Andy Lee Roth definitely show—and not just in their own writing. They're managed to tease out fine performances from many other writers, including Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed, Elliot D. Cohen of Truthout, Sara van Gelder of YES! Magazine, Peter Phillips, Adam Bessie and many others.
The issues definitely matter. The significance of the reader-selected Top 25 Censored Stories of 2011-12 is beyond dispute. Number 1 is "Signs of an Emerging Police State"; Number 2 is "Oceans in Peril"; and Number 3 is "Fukushima Disaster Worse Than Anticipated." Other sections reveal how a "Federal Reserve Audit Reveals Trillions Loaned to Major Banks" and a "Small Network of Corporations Run the Global Economy." For each general issue, News Clusters add context, breadth and depth.
Rumblings from the Occupy Movements of 2011 reverberate throughout many of the clusters. Readers learn not only about the "Bankster Bailout," but about how to create an economy for the 99 percent. Lesser-known issues include how Congress has forced the US Post Office to bear unfair financial commitments, apparently in an effort to justify its privatization.

APS is the gateway to the world for the U.S. legal community.
Don't trust your international service of process request to your local service company! With over 30 years of international experience, APS is highly qualified to handle your legal documents abroad. We have personal relationships with many foreign authorities and we are constantly monitoring changes in procedures and requirements.
APS routinely assists attorneys with worldwide service of process requests under:
If you are not certain which method you should use, email or call us and one of our experienced attorneys or paralegals will assist you. We can also email or fax you current information regarding the service requirements for the country you are interested in.
APS can translate your documents into or from almost any foreign language. In addition, APS can assist you in preparing responsive affidavits and/or supporting documentation in response to Motions to Quash or Dismiss, if provided with ample time for review and preparation.
Don't take chances or guess when it comes to your international service of process request. Call the "go to" people for international service of process - call APS!
Call APS toll-free at 1-800-328-7171 ext. 709 or 952-831-7776 ext. 709, email email@example.com
or send a fax to 1-800-538-5299.
Hague Service Convention
The Hague Service Convention encompasses about 94 nations and other political units. APS is recognized by member nations as an authority to transmit requests for service abroad. Service is usually completed within 12 to 16 weeks. However, APS does NOT guarantee the performance of foreign governmental officials.
Letters Rogatory
A Letters Rogatory (Letter of Request) encompasses all countries with which the United States has diplomatic relations. This method is used in countries not party to the above conventions. Service is usually completed in 6 to 12 months. However, due to the bureaucracy of foreign governments, it is not uncommon for this period to exceed 12 months.
Inter-American Convention on Letters Rogatory
The Inter-American Convention and Additional Protocol encompass twelve member countries. APS will process your request for service through the U.S. Department of Justice. Service is usually completed in 6 to 12 months. However, due to the bureaucracy of foreign governments, it is not uncommon for this period to exceed 12 months.
Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act
This method is used when serving process upon a foreign state or instrumentality of a foreign state. Service is effected in compliance with federal statute and is applicable in both state and federal courts. This is the exclusive method of service and must be followed in painstaking detail or service fails. The FSIA allows for various methods of service. Therefore, the time-frame to complete service will depend on the country as well as the methods employed.
A private process server may only be used in countries where laws do not prohibit this method. Service is usually completed in six to nine weeks and can be expedited for additional fees.
Therefore, these U.S. Courts may not recognize service by personal delivery in countries that are parties to any of the above conventions. FURTHERMORE, informal methods of service may not comply with the notice requirements of the foreign country. Therefore, informal service could render a U.S. judgment unenforceable within the borders of that country.
Caveat: Always approach informal methods with CAUTION! Many courts in the United States feel that an international agreement such as one of the above conventions constitutes an exclusive method of service. APS always recommends compliance with international service conventions or, if not applicable, compliance with rules/laws of the foreign country where service is to be effected.

The Avantone Pro CK-40 Stereo Multi-Pattern FET Microphone is modestly priced, flexible, and capable of producing pristine stereo recordings of vocals, instruments, ensembles, ambiance and more. The CK-40 sports a stylish red finish, consistent with Avantone's Cabernet (C-series) microphone line. Its appearance is out matched only by its flexibility and sonic performance.
Twin large 35mm capsules are mounted vertically, feature switchable omnidirectional, cardioid and figure 8 polar patterns, and the top capsule may be rotated up to 180° for flexible positioning. Polar patterns may be independently selected and its flexible positioning options allow for Blumlein, X/Y and M-S stereo recording techniques.
Add to this the ability to individually assign an 80Hz high-pass filter and -10dB pad, and the CK-40's flexibility begins to rival stereo microphones at more than double the price. Included in the package is a shockmount, 5-pin XLR cable measuring 30' (9.14m), 5-pin XLR to dual 3-pin XLR breakout box, wooden case and metal travel case.
- Features twin 35mm center-terminated pressure gradient transducers. Their close physical proximity places them in a tight vertical array to allow accurate stereo imaging without phase issues
- Individually selectable cardioid, omnidirectional and figure 8 polar patterns
- The top capsule/grill assembly rotates up to 180° relative to the lower capsule/grill assembly
- Two sets of pad, pattern select & LF roll-off switches independently control the capsules.
- Custom retro shockmount is superb in allowing a precise positioning of the mic while inhibiting the transfer of unwanted vibrations
