I've been aadopted as a husban for a beautiful bunny gitl named Eloise.
The vet thinks I may have glaucoma, but my wonderful new people have promised to take good care of me, so I'm one happy bunny guy!
Hello. My name is Junmai. I am named after a special type of premium Sake: One that is a very smooth and mellow mix, just like me!
I am a quiet and calm, little guy, as well as an older gentleman at 5-6 years old. My humans could no longer keep me and brought me to an animal shelter. I was sad and just wasn't doing very well there, so I came to SaveABunny. I'm feeling much better now and am no longer depressed. In fact, I am ready to find my forever home with people who want to fall in love with a special bunny. I feel like I have a fresh new start and new life!
Please meet me soon.

BERKLEY — For a former music manager and a massage therapist, the pizza business didn't look like the perfect fit.
But Jennifer Stark and Maureen McNamara, friends since of the age of 14 when they met in high school in Royal Oak, bought Amici's Pizza & Living Room in Berkley from Stark's brother, George, eight years ago after Stark decided to step away from the music business.
When George said he was going to sell his business, Stark went to McNamara and, after she closed up shop as a massage therapist, the two pooled their money to buy the restaurant.
"In the back of my mind, I always knew I wanted to own a restaurant someday, and then it came to fruition," Stark, 50, said. "Maureen and I were customers at the time and we knew what it was, what a gem it was. Maureen had a marketing background and I thought we'd make a great partnership."
On June 3, Amici's Pizza & Living Room was featured on "Pizza Cuz," a show on the Cooking Channel on which two cousins go around the country and try the nation's best pizza. Stark and McNamara were featured in the episode titled "Girl Power," along with two other female-owned pizzerias.
While it took both ladies four decades to enter the restaurant business as owners, their hard work has paid off. Both women said being on a cooking show was "surreal," as being restaurant owners has become something they love and enjoy doing every day.
"We do more than pizza here," McNamara, 51, said. "We don't have any (televisions) and there is lots of talking in a small space, so people get to know each other. I have two kids who have both worked in the business and this place has become like our second home."
The two haven't changed much since they took over operations of the restaurant, but that is why they have been successful, Stark said. From the restaurant's Caribbean jerk chicken pizza with peanut butter-based sauce, which was featured on the episode, to the always-popular portabella mushroom pizza, Amici's has something for everyone.
"I think what we do here is unique and I think it is flavors and ingredients that people wouldn't necessarily think to do at home," Stark said. "In my mind, a mark of a good restaurant is a place you go to and you have a new experience you wouldn't be able to do in your own home.
"The same reason we bought the place is the same reason people are still here. We didn't break it."
Amici's was contacted by the Cooking Channel last November via email asking if they would be interested in being part of "Pizza Cuz." After sending in a one-minute video that showed off the workers and place of business, Stark and McNamara were selected to be part of the show, and the filming took place Feb. 5.
Stark said the preparation for the shoot was the hardest part, and someone could have eaten pizza off of the restaurant's floor because it was so clean. For McNamara, after the initial butterflies, the shooting went well and it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience to see the restaurant on television.
"We watch those shows, but you never think you are going to be on them, and then you see yourself," McNamara said. "We had family in different parts of the country watching it at the same time — it was great. And the pizza looked great; I wanted to eat it."
The two put out a notice on their Facebook page letting people know a show would be filming at the restaurant at 4 p.m. Feb. 5 and they were looking for people to fill up the restaurant. A lot of regulars and friends showed up for the shooting, including Berkley Mayor Phil O'Dwyer.
The episode featured the restaurant running as usual, as well as interviews with both Stark and McNamara, and it highlighted Stark preparing two pizzas. Stark said she works in the kitchen quite often, but there isn't a job in the whole restaurant the two owners don't know how to do.
"I'm in the kitchen and Maureen is out front more, but she helps with food and I help out here, so there is no defined jobs," she said. "You learn something new every day, even though we have been doing this for so long. There is not one job at Amici's we have not done. I've waited tables, I've bartended, I've made pizzas and I've done dishes and cleaned the bathroom."
Stark's brother started Amici's as a take-out restaurant in Royal Oak, but his move to Berkley paid dividends for Stark and McNamara. Being part of a small town has been a great experience and they were glad they could highlight Berkley in a positive manner.
"The people in Berkley are really supportive and they take pride in their businesses, and everyone is just a pleasure to talk to," Stark said. "Maureen and I both recognized what this place was and the room itself is a very warm, comforting place for a lot of people. We are just happy this is a special place for so many people."

Projection is the abstraction of taking one shape of data and creating a different shape of it. For instance, you could take a collection of one type, filter it and/or sort it, and then project a collection of a new type.
This blog is inactive.New blog: EricWhite.com/blogBlog TOCThe Select extension method is what you use to implement projection on a collection. You can pass a lambda expression to the Select extension method that takes one object from the source collection, and projects one object into the new projection.
Let's say that we have a collection of integers, and we want a new collection of strings of x's, where the string lengths are determined by the source collection of integers. The following code shows how to do this:
Dim lengths() As Integer = { 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 7, 5, 3, 1 }Dim stringCollection As IEnumerable(Of String) = _ lengths.Select(Function (i) "".PadRight(i, "x"C)) For Each s In stringCollection Console.WriteLine(s)Next
This code produces the following output:
Or we could take an array of doubles, and project a collection of integers, casting each double to int:
Dim dbls() As Double = { 1.5, 3.2, 5.2, 7.3, 9.7, 7.5, 5.0, 3.2, 1.9 }Dim ints As IEnumerable(Of Integer) = _ dbls.Select(Function(d) CInt(d))For Each i In ints Console.WriteLine(i)Next
Or we can take a collection of elements from an XML tree, and project a collection of strings. The strings projection contains the value of each element:
Dim xmlDoc = _ <Root> <Child>abc</Child> <Child>def</Child> <Child>ghi</Child> </Root>Dim values As IEnumerable(Of String) = _ xmlDoc.Elements().Select(Function(e) CStr(e))For Each s In values Console.WriteLine(s)Next
But in the real world, our projections will typically be much more involved than this. For instance, we will often take a collection of some class, and project a collection of a different class. Or we may project a collection of anonymous types (introduced in the next topic).

Washington Book Prize
The George Washington Book Prize recognizes the year's best books on the nation's founding era, especially those that have the potential to advance broad public understanding of American history.
Nick Bunker Wins 2015 George Washington Book Prize with Vivid Countdown of Events Leading to the
American Revolution
His Empire on the Edge receives the $50,000 Prize at a gala event hosted Wednesday evening by Mount Vernon.
The winner of one of the nation's largest literary awards, the George Washington Book Prize, was announced Wednesday evening, May 20, at a black-tie gala at George Washington's Mount Vernon. The $50,000 prize went to Nick Bunker's An Empire on the Edge: How Britain Came to Fight America (Knopf).
The George Washington Book Prize honors the year's best new books on early American history, especially books that are written for a broad audience. The three institutions that sponsor the prestigious prize — Washington College, the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, and George Washington's Mount Vernon — are devoted to furthering historical scholarship that contributes to the public understanding of the American Revolution and the founding era.
An Empire on the Edge is a probing account of Great Britain's internal political and financial tensions on the eve of revolution. Drawing on a careful study of primary sources from Britain and the United States, Bunker crafts a compelling story of the deepening antagonism between England and her colonies, giving equal weight to the commercial as well as the political ambitions of the British Empire. Bunker's series of fully visualized scenes of familiar events like the Boston Tea Party and lesser-known episodes such as the Gaspee Affair, provides a nuanced description of the Anglo-American conflict.
An independent scholar in Lincolnshire, England, Bunker was formerly a journalist for the Financial Times and an investment banker. Bunker's background in finance is evident in his insightful portrait of London's speculative cycles, the financial woes of the East India Company, and the networks of global trade that put the imperial system "slipping into ruin."
In addition to claiming the Washington Book Prize, An Empire on the Edge was recently announced as a finalist for the 2015 Pulitzer Prize in history, earning praise for its "bifocal perspective on the countdown to the American Revolution." Empire on Edge is Bunker's second book: he previously authored Making Haste from Babylon: The Mayflower Pilgrims and Their World: A New History (2010).
"Bunker's book takes readers from the wharves of Boston to the halls of Parliament and the tea plantations of China," said Adam Goodheart, Hodson Trust-Griswold Director of Washington College's C.V. Starr Center for the Study of the American Experience, which administers the prize. "He shows us that the fate of the American colonies depended on events in all of those places. This is historical narrative at its most vivid and engrossing."
The Mount Vernon event also honored the three other finalists for this year's Washington Prize: Richard S. Dunn's A Tale of Two Plantations: Slave Life and Labor in Jamaica and Virginia (Harvard University Press), François Furstenberg's When the United States Spoke French: Five Refugees Who Shaped a Nation (Penguin) and Eric Nelson's The Royalist Revolution: Monarchy and the American Founding (Harvard University Press).
Books are available for purchase at the College Bookstore.
About the Prize
Created in 2005, the George Washington Book Prize was presented that year to Ron Chernow for Alexander Hamilton. Other winners are Stacy Schiff (2006) for A Great Improvisation: Franklin, France, and the Birth of America, Charles Rappleye (2007) for Sons of Providence: The Brown Brothers, the Slave Trade, and the American Revolution, Marcus Rediker (2008) for The Slave Ship: A Human History, Annette Gordon-Reed (2009) for The Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family, which also won the Pulitzer Prize for History, the National Book Award and the Frederick Douglass Prize, and Richard Beeman (2010) for Plain, Honest Men: The Making of the American Constitution. In 2011, the Prize was awarded to Pauline Maier for Ratification: The People Debate the Constitution, 1787-1789 and in 2012 the winner was Maya Jasanoff for Liberty's Exiles: American Loyalists in the Revolutionary World. The 2013 Prize was awarded to Stephen Brumwell for George Washington: Gentleman Warrior. The tenth Book Prize was awarded in 2014 to Andrew Jackson O'Shaughnessy for The Men Who Lost America: British Leadership, the American Revolution, and the Fate of the Empire.
The George Washington Book Prize recognizes the year's best books on the nation's founding era, especially those that have the potential to advance broad public understanding of American history. The $50,000 Prize is sponsored by Washington College, the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, and George Washington's Mount Vernon.

Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
My wife and I are thinking of making a WFO our next big project. We live in PIttsburgh, PA and from what I've been reading I would need a rather thick slab or floating slab to cover the 40". We are only going to live in this house for another two years or so. Any thoughts on a mobile base or another foundation that wouldn't require the work of a large slab? Would I be okay with a 6-8" slab on my soil (since I only anticipate two years of use out of this oven personally") Any help appreciated.
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
It really depends on your soil conditions. I too live in Pittsburgh and am deliberating the pros and cons of each foundation type. I have come to the conclusion that due to the soil conditions in my yard, that I will need a full 36+ inch deep foundation. My yard only has about 6" of topsoil and the rest is solid clay. The yard has a good slope to it, but does not drain well due to the lack of permiable soil. I fear a floating slab would shift over the long haul.
2 Years is a somewhat short time. Do you plan on moving to a longer term home on the area? Many of the builds here easily span 12 or more months.
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
At two years of use, you might want to take it with you if you are moving local. Build the base on a steel frame, use 12x12 treated posts to hold it up. When moving time comes, hire a brick truck with its lift device to move your oven. Most brick yards have flat beds that have a lift truck hanging off the back so the can deliver into the back of properties. Yes-you can take it with you.
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
If I were moving in the next 24 months I would buy a pizza stone for my indoor oven and wait until I'm in the next house :).
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
I used a precast, concrete manhole for a base unit - flipped upside down. It does not require footer at all, just solid ground. Simply skin off the sod with a shovel and place a few inches of gravel for this manhole to sit on. You would need a large piece of equipment (large backhoe) to set the manhole; if you can't get this equipment into you yard then this option will not work. This unit could be moved with you when you move, if you have the access to equipment. I live to the north of you in PA - frost is not a problem because the manhole is monolithic so there is no differential settlement.
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
"I used a precast, concrete manhole for a base unit"
Sounds like an excellent solution. What were the dimensions of the manhole unit ? Was it just the lid, or was it the barrel as well ?
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
It is a 4 foot inside diameter, precast manhole with an 8 inch extended base. The manhole walls will be six inches thick, so the outside diameter of the barrel section will be 5 feet. As I said before, the manhole if flipped upside down, so that the extended base is the surface that you build on. It essentially looks like a "big" soup can sitting on a big dinner plate - then you flip it over. I built a 42 inch WFO on this base unit. I would be glad to send you construction photos (I have many) if you like - just give me your email address.
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
just starting to plan a WFO in Pittsburgh (in the city itself). For what I've read up to now you've to go pretty deep, mostly for getting below the frost line. alternatively, there's something called Frost-protected shallow foundations (Frost Protected Shallow Foundations - Oikos) that allow you not to go very deep. I haven't figured it out whether all those concerns apply to something the size of a brick oven, though.
On a side note, I haven't figured out the building codes/permits required for a brick oven. Do you have any pointers? Thanks.
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
I, for one, would read a thread containing your build pictures and your story.... :)
Re: Do I have to dig a four foot hole?
I'm a former ne Ohio guy, so I can relate to the poor soil drainage throughout the whole region. If you are CERTAIN that you will be leaving, then go with something smaller on a mobile base that you could hopefully take with you. If you think you may be stayng, you have to go all out and do those 3" deep footers, if you don't, you may have a cracked mess when things thaw out next spring. Frost heave can be very detrimental to anything not anchored below the frost line,

Torre GTX
Comfortable at first if a bit narrow for my feet. Toe box blew out fast as a result. One of the eyes pulled through the leather. Found the boots to be more comfortable with two lowest sets of eyelets left unthreaded and unlaced. Dangerously slippery on wet surfaces, and I mean seriously dangerous, just walking on wet metal grates in the street or wet wooden decking. I have literally fallen flat on my back like in cartoons by just casually hopping onto a deck wet with dew in the morning! Got these… Full review

I torture tested this shoe on the JMT for 150 miles over one 12k rock pile after another. Wear on the soles was noticeable, but they gave excellent slick rock traction. Forded three rivers, same story. They dried quickly and I never got one blister. The blister free factor was, by itself, a huge point. Cuts, abrasions, a partial peeling of the toecap and heel rubber, but everything held together until I could effect repairs.

Lightweight and breathable because of the Gore-tex materials, but extremely tough. I've taken these boots through every terrain and temperature. I've climbed up to volcanic glaciers, trekked through the rainforest, hiked through the outback and survived monsoons all in pretty easy comfort. They've only just started to show wear in four years after a construction project landed them sole-deep in concrete. I'd say the Torre is a multitasked boot that can save packing space and weight. I use it as… Full review
Great fitting trail running shoe that inspires confidence on the trail. No rock plate in sole limiting factor on rocky trails. Fit: This is the best fitting shoe I have ever had on, period. I realise this is different for everybody, but here is how it fit me.

I lace down pretty tight in the front, normal in the mid section and a bit… Full review
Still a great shoe. This is still a great trail running shoe. It's not high tech, but pretty durable with good traction. It's true to size and comfortable. It is also pretty stable on the trail with good forefoot plant and up front cushioning. I think this shoe is being closed out, so you can pick up at good price. Makes for a good daily trainer.

Vagal maneuvers are used to try to slow an episode of fast heart
rate. These simple maneuvers stimulate the vagus nerve, sometimes resulting in
slowed conduction of electrical impulses through the
atrioventricular (AV) node of the heart. Be sure to
talk to your doctor before trying these.
Vagal maneuvers that you can try to slow your fast heart rate
Be sure to have your doctor show you how to do
these procedures correctly.
In addition to these, your doctor may sometimes try
another vagal maneuver (called carotid sinus massage) in the emergency room to
help slow your heart rate. This technique should only be performed by a doctor.

To make a brisk story very short, Pyle believes in the domino theory, and a wacko "Third Force."
So, yes, be wary of Greek dominos falling, but remember the domino theory was wrong during the Cold War yet it sowed fear.
The idea that if one key nation in a region fell to control of communists, others would follow like toppling dominoes. The theory was used by many American leaders to justify American intervention in the Vietnam War. (See policy of containment.)

Yes... I have a vintage tag on this bike and have it insured with Hagerty along with my vintage streetbikes.
I am running a DG pipe as well. I bought a FMF universal silencer/spark arrestor. It came with a stinger pipe extension and a mounting tab.
Here is a photo of a my setup as I am positioning things before I weld it. I first positioned the silencer where I wanted it to mount to the frame (using the supplied clamp and yamaha rubber mount). I then cut the stinger extention to the proper length. The stinger slides into the DG pipe. Instead of clamping it, I chose to weld it to reduce the posibility of leaks than can damage the plastic number panel. The silencer is then clamped to the other end of the extention.
You can see how the mounting tab is also positioned on the extention in preperation of welding. Here too I used a yamaha rubber hanger bracket between the frame and the mounting tab.
This setup works well. The mounting is solid and clean. The FMF silencer is just barely acceptable noise wise. I do wisk it was a little quieter though. I recently came across a pretty massive aluminum silencer/spark arrestor that some one told me was off a husky. Given its size I would think it would be quieter. I may give it a try some time in the future.
The IT490 is a bit of a wild beast. I dont ride it on the street much as it wants to entice me into doing something that will get me arrested... hope the photos help.

An odd request...
Been feeling nostalgic lately. Does anyone have an old Libranet 3.0 cd they can create an .iso of? I want to run my old favorite OS in a VM just to remember the times...
There is supposed to be a successor in the offing:
Yeah, I've read that. But I remember how amazing the installer was for the day, and I want to see it again mostly to see how far we've come in over 10 years of development, or if the installer really was that far ahead of it's time that I remember...
:( Was hoping someone would have this still lying around. Bummer.

The kid who has insisted on naming our cars for years, the same kid we told to cool it for years, has been vindicated.
According to an Associated Press AOL poll, 20% of all drivers give nicknames to their cars.
Whoa, Betsy!
Actually, Betsy is the No. 1 nickname, followed by Nelly, Blue and Baby. We may have named a few of our vehicles, but they were names like "Money Pit" and "Rust Bucket," which were nowhere on the list.
The kid who names cars tends to select monikers with considerably more affection.
When the green minivan developed a short in the electrical system that caused the interior lights to randomly flash and automatic doors to lock and unlock, she named the vehicle Shirley. It was hard to dislike a vehicle named Shirley.
The 1993 Ford F150 pickup with the five-speed stick shift, custom speakers and deafening muffler she named Henry. It was a good fit.
The maroon minivan with extended back became Spencer. Her grandpa's Expedition has been dubbed Eddie and the used Toyota Avalon that came into her possession a year ago purrs to the name Ava.
Despite efforts to resist falling into her trap, we have occasionally heard ourselves saying inane things like, "Does Henry have gas?" Or, "Who's in the garage, Ava or Spencer?"
The poll also found that three in 10 drivers think their cars have gender.
"How do you know if a car is a girl or a boy?" I ask our car-naming expert.
"Oh, you can tell by looking," she chirps.
"And where does one look?" I ask. "Under the hood?"
"No, you can tell by looking at the car's build. Spencer (the maroon minivan) is obviously a boy. Big, husky, good storage and has a firm idea of where he is going."
She explains this to me speaking very slowly, as though someone who has to ask how you tell a girl car from a boy car is a couple quarts low.
"Obviously," I say.
"You can tell Ava is a girl by the fact that she is dainty and has a soft cream color. Plus, you can't take Ava over the speed bumps the way you could Henry. Henry could take the speed bumps in second or third without a ripple, but Ava is delicate. You have to slow way down."
I was with her in the car recently when someone gave us the international road signal.
I looked over to see her response and she calmly said, "Just ignore them, Ava."
"Ava has no idea what just happened," I said.
"Yes, she does, she's very sensitive," she said, patting Ava on the dashboard.
Colormatters.com may not agree that cars have personalities, but they do contend that a car's color tells about the personalities of the people who drive them.
Black reflects an aggressive personality and is the color car most likely to be in an accident. Silver means someone is cool, calm and slightly aloof. Green indicates hysterical tendencies. Yellow reflects idealism, and white is for status-seeking extroverts. Cream is self-contained, controlled and least likely to be in an accident.
I was driving the self-contained and controlled cream-colored Ava the other day and forgot to take the speed bump slow. Like Ava knows I took the speed bump a little too fast, I chuckled to myself.
By the time I reached the stop sign, the seat warmer had turned itself off.

Bucks unveil new court design for 2013-14 season
Sep 24, 2013, 9:16 PM EDT
The Bucks unveiled a new court design during an event held at the Milwaukee Art Museum on Tuesday, and if you're familiar with the history of the franchise, then the floor's look may bring back some memories.
The Bucks had the team's original play-by-play announcer Eddie Doucette on hand to help with the introductions, and current players John Henson and Larry Sanders did the honors of peeling back the curtain.
"I think it's awesome," Sanders said. "We can win on that right there. I think they did a great job."
If you look closely from the baseline angle, you'll see that the lighter wood grain shades carve out a capital 'M' on each side of the floor — just as the iconic 1977 version did when the Bucks played at Milwaukee's MECCA.
From the official release:
A renowned pop artist famous for his "LOVE" artwork, Indiana created the design for the Bucks court that was used at the MECCA Arena from 1977-87. Indiana's original floor, with bright colors and a giant "M" flanking each side of the midcourt line, is recognized as one of the largest pieces of pop art ever produced and brought international recognition to Milwaukee as a progressive, forward-thinking city that appreciates art as much as it does sport.
The court was assembled, sanded, and painted at the Bradley Center, and appears to be ready to go for the upcoming season.

Not Bad!!
- antistratfordian - Sep 24, 2013 at 10:06 PM
I like it, though the green is a little overpowering. The 1977 court was pretty fly – they should've thrown some of those other colors in there.
- asimonetti88 - Sep 24, 2013 at 10:12 PM
That's a pretty nice court. The Bucks have some nice colors and logos/imagery to work with though.

Um, you mean Bango.
But yes, the original Bango logo was great, and hopefully they use it when/if they wear the rainbow green jerseys as throwbacks.

That's pretty sweet, can't lie.
- lakerade - Sep 25, 2013 at 1:36 AM
I like it, stylized wood grains just give the court a classy feel (parquet, twolves court)

That court is funky fresh. Nice to see them take a chance and mix it up.

A summary of the presentation of randomized stimuli. Facilitation phase: one set of 20 pictures were presented three times on two separate occasions (six times total), simultaneously with their auditory names, for repetition (LT prime). Testing phase (during scan): the long-term facilitated set were presented again for naming (LT target); a set of 20 pictures were presented twice - once as a prime along with the auditory name for repetition (ST prime) and then presented again (6 to 12 trials later) for naming (ST target); and one set of 20 unfacilitated pictures were also presented once for naming (UN), along with an additional set of 20 unfacilitated non-critical fillers. * indicates the three main naming conditions of interest - unfacilitated, long-term facilitated and short-term facilitated.

Nice shots Jack!
Bird by a lake
As I was getting ready to head out of Lee Metcalf for the evening, some of the Magpie Jay fledglings were raising a ruckus.
Thanks for the suggestions Jon. Actually I was way over-exposed and cut back in raw. A friend has been commenting that I'm usually overexposed and a little on the yellow side of the spectrum. Unfortunately, I think that the monitor is playing a part in this. I have two hooked up and they don't quite agree.It's been lightly raining and is completely overcase and the sky is washed out in these shots. Not sure exactly how to handle them.Jack
As I see it now here in the thread this last shot is overexposed - don't like it.Jack

A look back at the years of false reports that preceded Sunday night's announcement of the real thing
By Justin Elliott
The false reports of Osama bin Laden's death began almost immediately after Sept. 11, 2001, and persisted at a rate of at least once or twice a year, every year. The reports — generated by (usually anonymous) statements by American officials and a dizzying array of foreign sources — often generated international headlines.
Here's a sampling:
July 2002 FBI counterterrorism chief Dale Watson tells a law enforcement conference of bin Laden: "I personally think he is probably not with us anymore, but I have no evidence to support that."
August 2002 Popular conspiracy-mongering radio host Alex Jones announces, citing high-level Bush administration sources, "that bin Laden died of natural causes and that his family has given the body to the CIA." Jones added, "they're gonna roll him out right before the election, he's on ice right now."
May 2003 French military analyst announces that bin Laden was killed in an American air raid in Tora Bora shortly after the invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.
February 2004 Iranian Radio reports that bin Laden was captured… Continue reading

FBI says, "No hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11″
Reread this full article, reprinted at 911truth.org from Muckraker (no longer available online) here:
No Hard Evidence Connecting bin Laden to 9/11
Courtesy of The Muckraker Report
June 6, 2006 — This past weekend, a thought provoking e-mail circulated through Internet news groups, and was sent to the Muckraker Report by Mr. Paul V. Sheridan (Winner of the 2005 Civil Justice Foundation Award), bringing attention to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist web page for Usama Bin Laden.[1] (See bottom of this web page for Most Wanted page) In the e-mail, the question is asked, "Why doesn't Usama Bin Laden's Most Wanted poster make any direct connection with the events of September 11, 2001?" The FBI says on its Bin Laden web page that Usama Bin Laden is wanted in connection with the August 7, 1998 bombings of the United States Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya. According to the FBI, these attacks killed over 200 people. The FBI concludes its reason for "wanting" Bin Laden by saying, "In addition, Bin Laden is a suspect in other terrorists attacks throughout the world."
On June 5, 2006, the Muckraker Report contacted the FBI Headquarters, (202) 324-3000, to learn why Bin Laden's Most Wanted poster did not indicate that Usama was also wanted in connection with 9/11. The Muckraker Report spoke with Rex Tomb, Chief of Investigative Publicity for the FBI. When asked why… Continue reading

McClatchy Newspapers
WASHINGTON — Buried in FBI laboratory reports about the anthrax mail attacks that killed five people in 2001 is data suggesting that a chemical may have been added to try to heighten the powder's potency, a move that some experts say exceeded the expertise of the presumed killer.
The lab data, contained in more than 9,000 pages of files that emerged a year after the Justice Department closed its inquiry and condemned the late Army microbiologist Bruce Ivins as the perpetrator, shows unusual levels of silicon and tin in anthrax powder from two of the five letters.
Those elements are found in compounds that could be used to weaponize the anthrax, enabling the lethal spores to float easily so they could be readily inhaled by the intended victims, scientists say.
The existence of the silicon-tin chemical signature offered investigators the possibility of tracing purchases of the more than 100 such chemical products available before the attacks, which might have produced hard evidence against Ivins or led the agency to the real culprit.
But the FBI lab reports released in late February give no hint that bureau agents tried to find the buyers of additives such as tin-catalyzed silicone polymers.
The apparent failure of the FBI to pursue this avenue of investigation raises the ominous possibility that the killer is still on the loose.
A McClatchy analysis of the records also shows that other key scientific questions were… Continue reading

In a sensational and explosive TV report, the Pakistani News Agency has provided a live interview with an eye witness to the US attack on the alleged compound of Osama bin Laden. The eye witness, Mohammad Bashir, describes the event as it unfolded. Of the three helicopters, "there was only one that landed the men and came back to pick them up, but as he [the helicopter] was picking them up, it blew away and caught fire." The witness says that there were no survivors, just dead bodies and pieces of bodies everywhere. "We saw the helicopter burning, we saw the dead bodies, then everything was removed and now there is nothing."
I always wondered how a helicopter could crash, as the White House reported, without at least producing injuries. Yet, in the original White House story, the SEALs not only survived a 40-minute firefight with al Qaeda, "the most highly trained, most dangerous, most vicious killers on the planet," without a scratch, but also survived a helicopter crash without a scratch.
The Pakistani news report is available on you tube. The Internet site, Veterans Today, posted a translation along with a video of the interview. Information Clearing House made
it available on May 17.
If the interview is not a hoax and the translation is correct, we now know the answer to the unasked question: Why was there no White House ceremony with President Obama pinning medals all over the… Continue reading
Not All Sources and Experts Are Equal–Here Are some Real Ones!
There are 'experts' views,' and then there are experts' views. There are 'government sources,' and then there are government sources. Not all experts are equal. And, not all sources are reliable. Am I talking in riddles? Of course not; give me a chance and I'll explain.
We have members of the popular media (mainstream and quasi-alternatives alike) ever anxious to market and disseminate government conspiracy and propaganda. They, members of the popular media, have their own rolodex of 'experts' and analysts, some on their payroll, to help them propagate the delivery and execution of government-given propaganda-conspiracy. The same principle applies to 'sources.' The popular media relies on their government sources who act as middle-men-government messengers who've been given a government written and approved script to be delivered; almost always anonymously. Well, this is exactly what we have been getting from our media, around the clock, since the announcement of the Bin Laden Death Operation: ever-changing government scripts, delivered mainly by anonymous government sources to the US media, and further embellished and expanded upon by government-connected experts and analysts on the payroll.
On the other hand, there are many independent real experts whose analyses and views you won't, or rarely, get to hear or read about; at least not in the mainstream media or at quasi-alternative sites. And there are current and former government sources not tasked with messenger duties; many of whom… Continue reading
ConsortiumNews.com Exclusive: With few exceptions — like some salacious rumor about the Kennedy family — the mainstream U.S. news media has little interest in historical stories. Such was the case when an ex-White House terrorism official accused a former CIA director of withholding information that might have prevented a 9/11 attack, Ray McGovern reports. <
August 16, 2011
By Ray McGovern
Bulletin for those of you who get your information only from the New York Times, the Washington Post and other outlets of the Fawning Corporate Media (FCM): Former White House counterterrorism czar Richard Clarke has accused ex-CIA Director George Tenet of denying him and others access to intelligence that could have thwarted the attack on the Pentagon on 9/11.
Deliberately withholding critical intelligence from those who need it, and can act on it, is — at the least — gross dereliction of duty.
The more so if keeping the White House promptly and fully informed is at the top of your job jar, as it was for Director of Central Intelligence Tenet. And yet that is precisely the charge Clarke has leveled at the former DCI.
In an interview aired on Aug. 11 on a local PBS affiliate in Colorado, Clarke charges that Tenet and two other senior CIA officials, Cofer Black and Richard Blee, deliberately withheld information about two of the hijackers of American Airlines Flight 77 — al-Hazmi and al-Mihdhar. The two had entered the United States more than a year before the 9/11 attacks.… Continue reading

For the last year or so, one of my "pet projects" has been to search the video archives of C-SPAN for statements made about different people, different events, and make short movies out of them. They cover a multitude of topics, including NORAD's response, Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, the Israeli Art Students, Saudi Arabia, and many others. Here is my C-SPAN Movie Collection, in the order they were created.
Praise For The 9/11 Report
by John Parulis
As we approach the tenth anniversary of the tragic events of September 11, 2001, we must weigh our collective need for maintaining and promoting what is believed to be "safe" against what is in fact true. A PhD in physics and former student of physics teacher David Chandler, when showed the compelling research David has put together on the physical improbability of the official story of the building collapses of the Three World Trade buildings on September 11 said, "I understand and accept your data as scientifically accurate and flawless, yet I don't believe it".
As David Chandler states in his recent DVD," 9/11 Analysis ," "It's time to take the blinders off". Remembering the enormous loss of life and the epic reaches of the sorrow of 9/11 can best be served by embracing the Truth, no matter how difficult a task that may be. Doing otherwise promotes the system that created this misery. David Chandler's research is honest, scientifically precise and profoundly compelling. Without pointing a finger of blame, David asks other scientists to test his work. He asks all of us to allow the rigors of science to clear our thinking, beliefs and assumptions so that a new dawning of intelligence and enlightenment replaces the belief system that enslaves us to the way things are.
Below is an excerpt from David Chandler's DVD, "9/11 Analysis". The video can be purchased at: 911speakout.org .

IF YOU THINK that on the 10th anniversary you know the whole story of 9/11 – and here I'm addressing conspiracy-minded "truthers" and the 13 percent who approved of the job Dick Cheney did as vice president – actually, you don't.
Time has upheld the broad story line of how hijackers loyal to Osama bin Laden hijacked four planes and killed nearly 3,000 people on Sept. 11, 2001 – claims about holograms being used to attack buildings instead of jetliners notwithstanding. At the same time, the dictum of famed investigative reporter I.F. Stone about all governments – i.e., they lie – is no less true about 9/11 than any other event.
Here are 10 questions about 9/11 that remain unanswered.
Richard Clarke, the national counterterrorism czar on 9/11, thinks so. In an interview for an upcoming radio documentary, Clarke claimed that top-level CIA officials deliberately withheld from the White House and the FBI knowledge as early as 2000 that two al Qaeda members – Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar – were living in San Diego.
The former anti-terror chief said he believes that the CIA kept the info under wraps because it wanted to recruit the two Saudis to serve as double agents within bin Laden's organization. Instead, the two terrorists ended up hijackers on American Flight 77. George Tenet, who was CIA director, claims that Clarke… Continue reading
Former minister says group was prepared to see bin Laden put on trial prior to 9/11, but US was not interested.
The Taliban government in Afghanistan offered to present Osama bin Laden for a trial long before the attacks of September 11, 2001, but the US government showed no interest, according to a senior aide to the Taliban leader, Mullah Omar.

Wakil Ahmad Muttawakil, Taliban's last foreign minister, told Al Jazeera in an exclusive interview that his government had made several proposals to the United States to present the al-Qaeda leader, considered the mastermind of the 2001 attacks, for trial for his involvement in plots targeting US facilities during the 1990s.
"Even before the [9/11] attacks, our Islamic Emirate had tried through various proposals to resolve the Osama issue. One such proposal was to set up a three-nation court, or something under the supervision of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference [OIC]," Muttawakil said.
"But the US showed no interest in it. They kept demanding we hand him over, but we had no relations with the US, no agreement of any sort. They did not recognise our government."
The US did not recognise the Taliban government and had no direct diplomatic relations with the group which controlled most of Afghanistan between 1996 and 2001.
But proposals by the Taliban were relayed to the US through indirect channels such as the US embassy in Pakistan or the informal Taliban office for the UN in New York, Muttawakil said.…Continue reading

A former FBI agent has told the BBC that he is being prevented from telling the truth about the events of 9/11 and what has happened since.
Ali Soufan alleges that crucial intelligence was not passed on from the CIA before the attacks in 2001.
He has written a book detailing some of his claims and has been speaking to the BBC's Security Correspondent Gordon Corera in his first on camera interview on the subject.
In response to the allegations in this report the CIA issued a statement to the BBC that said: "Any suggestion that the CIA purposely refused to share critical lead information on the 9/11 plots with the FBI is baseless."
"The suggestion that the Central Intelligence Agency has requested redactions on this publication because it does not like the content is ridiculous."
The CIA decline to comment on the record about the accusations regarding waterboarding and interrogation.
Unofficial transcript of video, "Former FBI Agent says truth of 9/11 remains hidden" :
Gordon Corera: Stepping out of the shadows, appearing for the first time on camera, Ali Soufan, the former FBI agent with an eyewitness account some people don't want him to tell.
Ali Soufan: They are trying to stop me and others from telling the world what really happened over there.
Gordon Corera: He believes huge mistakes were made with devastating consequences. Born in Lebanon, Soufan had… Continue reading

CIA's Maneuver: A Case of Bluffing? Buying Time? Or Something More?
Last week we broke the story of the CIA issued legal threats against producers Ray Nowosielski and John Duffy on their discovery of the identities of the two key CIA analysts who executed the Tenet-Black-Blee cover-up in the case of two key 9/11 hijackers. The analysts were referred to only by first names initially, but were going to be fully named in a follow up segment. It appears the story is still developing, but we now have further details on the case, an analysis by an expert producer, and a few comments on assessing the nature and possible implication of this move by the CIA.
I asked Mr. Nowosielski how the CIA was informed about the schedule and the content of their upcoming segment, and he provided us with the following details:
We emailed CIA Public Affairs on Thursday morning telling them of our intention to name two current agents in our journalism piece and explained the context of their use — the things they were accused of. We also explained that their names had been deduced through open-source materials and that our sources had told us they were working from headquarters.
As for the CIA's reaction and response Mr. Nowosielski recounted the following:

Their media spokesperson called back almost immediately. After a brief discussion, we emailed him the script for official reply. We also requested an interview with the two to ensure that we were telling the full story accurately.

Despite threats of prosecution from the CIA, the makers of 9/11: Press For Truth have released their new documentary podcast Who Is Rich Blee?
from the FAS Project on Government Secrecy
Volume 2011, Issue No. 96
October 1, 2011
Secrecy News Blog: http://www.fas.org/blog/secrecy/
Last Friday, White House officials made at least two public references to Presidential Policy Directives (PPDs). PPD 1 was cited in a new executive order on computer security and PPD 8 was cited in a White House blog posting on disaster preparedness. Each Directive is a significant expression of national policy. Neither one is classified. And yet neither of them — nor any other Obama Presidential Policy Directive — can be found on the White House website.
The White House decision not to make these documents available is a stark reminder of the incoherence of the Obama Administration's transparency policy, and its inconsistent implementation.
"Information maintained by the Federal Government is a national asset," President Obama wrote in his January 21, 2009 memo on transparency and open government. "My Administration will take appropriate action, consistent with law and policy, to disclose information rapidly in forms that the public can readily find and use. Executive departments and agencies should harness new technologies to put information about their operations and decisions online and readily available to the public."
But as the withholding of the presidential directives illustrates, not even the Obama White House itself complies with this policy, and so its impact in the farther reaches of the executive branch has been muted. Those who seek access to Presidential Policy Directives must look elsewhere.
"I think it's general policy that… Continue reading

A growing number of former government insiders — all responsible officials who served in a number of federal posts — are now on record as doubting ex-CIA director George Tenet's account of events leading up to the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. Among them are several special agents of the FBI, the former counterterrorism head in the Clinton and Bush administrations, and the chairman of the 9/11 Commission, who told us the CIA chief had been "obviously not forthcoming" in his testimony and had misled the commissioners.
These doubts about the CIA first emerged among a group of 9/11 victims' families whose struggle to force the government to investigate the causes of the attacks, we chronicled in our 2006 documentary film "Press for Truth." At that time, we thought we were done with the subject. But tantalizing information unearthed by the 9/11 Commission's
final report and spotted by the families (Chapter 6, footnote 44) raised a question too important to be put aside:
Did Tenet fail to share intelligence with the White House and the FBI in 2000 and 2001 that could have prevented the attacks? Specifically, did a group in the CIA's al-Qaida office engage in a domestic covert action operation involving two of the 9/11 hijackers, that — however legitimate the agency's goals may have been — hindered the type of intelligence-sharing that could have prevented the attacks?…Continue reading
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

When Underwriters Laboratories fired me for challenging the World Trade Center (WTC) report that it helped create with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), it said "there is no evidence" that any firm performed the required fire resistance testing of the materials used to build the Twin Towers. Of course, that was a lie.
With this experience in mind, I checked to see how many times the 9/11 Commission Report used the phrase "no evidence," and noted in particular the times the Commission claimed to have "found no evidence" or that "no evidence was uncovered." I discovered that the phrase "no evidence" appears an amazing 63 times. An example is the dubious statement — "There is no evidence to indicate that the FAA recognized Flight 77 as a hijacking until it crashed into the Pentagon (p 455).
Of these 63 instances, some variation of "we found no evidence" appears three dozen times. This seems to be an unusually high number of disclaimers begging ignorance, given that the Commission claims to have done "exacting research" in the production of a report that was the "fullest possible accounting of the events of September 11, 2001."
The number of times these "no evidence" disclaimers appear in the report is doubly amazing considering how infrequently some of the most critical witnesses and evidence are referenced. For example, the FAA's national operations manager, Benedict Sliney, who was coordinating the FAA's response that day, appears only once in the narrative (and twice in the notes).…Continue reading

This is a photo of my ggg grandmothers grave.
I have never seen the grave. I really appreciate the person who took the photo.
Thanks a lot.
It is my wish that I have entered someone you are looking for. If I have entered any one related to you and they are not related to me - I will be happy to transfer. My goal is not to see how many memorial I can create, but to help you find your love ones . I don't mean to offend anybody, the memorials are made so love ones can find their relatives. If I have entered anything incorrectly, I will be glad to correct.
Any and all information or pictures, I have uploaded, are meant for sharing. Family memories were meant to be passed on. I just don't understand anyone that thinks different. I think if you don't want to share, than don't put them on a public site.
Today we walked where others walked
On a lonely, windswept hill;
Today we talked where other cried
For Loved Ones whose lives are stilled.
Today our hearts were touched
By graves of tiny babies;
Snatched from the arms of loving kin,
In the heartbreak of the ages.
Today we saw where the grandparents lay
In the last sleep of their time;
Lying under the trees and clouds -
Their beds kissed by the sun and wind.
Today we wondered about an unmarked spot;
Who lies beneath this hollowed ground?
Was it a babe, child, young or old?
No indication could be found.
Today we saw where Mom and Dad lay.
We had been here once before
On a day we'd all like to forget,
But will remember forever more.
Today we recorded for kith and kin
The graves of ancestors past;
To be preserved for generations hence,
A record we hope will last.
Cherish it, my friend; preserve it, my friend,
For stones sometimes crumble to dust
And generations of folks yet to come
Will be grateful for your trust.

The death date for George William Johnson Jr. is 14 May 1961 instead of 10 May 1961. The Texas Death Certificate has 14 May 1961 written on it at the top of the form.

Infant Barnett, Childress, TX
The date on the memorial for Infant Barnett (Find A Grave Memorial# 65667727) is May 1, 1918. Is it possible that the date should be May 15, 1918? I'm looking for information on Lennis Barnett. She died in 1918 at the age of 4. Another Barnett infant died on May 15, 1918. If you could confirm the date on your memorial as correct, I would be most grateful.

A day after suffering a couple of injury scares to key players, the Milwaukee Brewers got good news on third baseman Aramis Ramirez and right-hander Yovani Gallardo on Sunday. Brewers manager Ron Roenicke told reporters following Sunday's spring training victory over the Cubs that the MRI taken on Ramirez's injured knee came back negative for any structural damage. Roenicke told reporters Ramirez is expected to miss a couple of days and still is sore after spraining his knee while legging out a double Saturday. "(Our doctors) felt pretty good yesterday when they examined him," Roenicke said prior to Sunday's game. " . . . There's not a lot of swelling there." With Ramirez likely out for at least a week and Taylor Green and Jeff Bianchi heading off to the World Baseball Classic, the Brewers are shorthanded at third base. Roenicke said Bobby Crosby is expected to return Tuesday from a leg injury that has delayed his comeback attempt and will give the Brewers help at third base. ...

For the first time in almost a year, The Citadel's C.J. Bray played in an organized basketball game Monday night.
Bray, a redshirt sophomore from James Island, scored nine points with three rebounds in 14 minutes of a 109-64 rout of NAIA squad Montreat before 693 spectators at McAlister Field House.
The stat line was modest, but the eventual impact of Bray's return could be big for the Bulldogs (3-4), who labored through the first six games with just nine healthy players. At 6-7 and 238 pounds, Bray is The Citadel's biggest and most experienced post player.
"It means a lot to have him back, especially down low," said sophomore Matt Van Scyoc, who led five players in double figures with 23 points against Montreat (6-3). "He showed what he can do tonight. He can play big forward or center, and he's a great shooter and a big body that we just haven't had yet."
Bray played in six games last season before he was sidelined by calcium deposits in his ankle, his last appearance on Dec. 4, 2012, against Charleston Southern. He underwent surgery on the ankle last January, but woke up — mysteriously — with nerve damage in his right shoulder.
"It was frustrating, one thing after another," said Bray, who started the first five games and averaged 5.4 points and 2.4 rebounds before he took a medical redshirt. "I couldn't shoot a basketball, couldn't even hold my arm over my head. It's been all year rehabbing, trying to get that muscle back and that nerve healthy.
"It was one of those freak accidents that happen, and I just had to work my way back."
With Bray out and 6-8 junior P.J. Horgan's career over with a bad back, slender freshmen Tom Koopman (6-8, 210) and Nate Bowser (6-9, 210) have been manning the post. With his size and experience, Bray should return to the starting lineup soon.
"He will really help us on the boards, and that's something we've struggled with at times," coach Chuck Driesell said. "He'll help us with scoring inside with the weight and the strength he has. Those are our biggest areas of need."
Scoring wasn't an issue against overmatched Montreat, which earlier this season dropped a 108-51 decision at Chattanooga. Freshman forward Brian White had his second double-double with 19 points and 10 rebounds. Ashton Moore and Dylen Setzekorn added 13 points each and Marshall Harris scored 11 as the Bulldogs shot 14 of 30 from 3-point range and 57.1 percent overall.
It was The Citadel's most points since a 131-79 win over Daniel Webster in November 2007.
Driesell was most pleased with his team holding Montreat to 34.5 percent shooting and committing 11 turnovers against 23 assists. Defense and turnovers were the issues during last year's eight-win season.
"I love the fact that we're holding opponents to 43 percent from the field," said Driesell. "That was an Achilles' heel of ours. I love the fact that we're not turning the ball over as much as we did in the past, another Achilles' heel. I think we don't have as many ugly turnovers, really bad turnovers that there's no defense for. I'm excited about those two areas."
Monday's game also saw the college debut of freshman guard Warren Sledge, who missed the first six games with a stress fracture. Sledge, 6-3 and 180 pounds, played 11 minutes and scored two points.
"After watching him play in Canada, he's game-ready," Driesell said. "He doesn't let things rattle him, he doesn't turn the ball over, has got good vision and pace. He's been out for nine weeks, so we've got to take it slow and get him back to 100 percent."
Freshman guard Kerigan Farley led Montreat with 17 points.
The Citadel plays this weekend at the Battle 4 Atlantis Mainland tournament at Towson, Md. The Bulldogs take on Colonial Athletic Association favorite Towson on Friday before facing West Alabama on Saturday. Their next home game is Dec. 7 against Gardner-Webb.
