The Russians Warned Us – Why Didn't We Listen?
Our anti-Russian foreign policy trumped security concerns
How did the FBI fail to keep track of Tamerlan Tsarnaev after the Russians warned us about him?
This is a mystery our lawmakers are passionately interested in. The FBI blames the Russians for not providing more information after their own efforts failed to turn up anything they regarded as suspicious. Yet the Russians did indeed provide enough information to justify surveillance of Tamerlan Tsarnaev, according to NBC News, when they informed the FBI he had met with a known terrorist leader no less than six times during his visit to Dagestan. :
"A police official source in Makhachkala, Dagestan, told NBC News on Sunday that the Russian internal security service reached out to the FBI last November with some questions about Tamerlan, and handed over a copy of case file on him.
"Tsarnaev had first popped up on the local police radar in Dagestan last summer, the source said. During routine surveillance of an individual known to be involved in the militant Islamic underground movement, the police witnessed Tamerlan meet the latter at a Salafi mosque in Makhachkala, the police official said.
"It was one of six times in total that surveillance officials witnessed Tsarnaev meeting this militant at the same mosque, according to the police official. The militant contact later disappeared, the police official said, but so did Tsarnaev before investigators had a chance to speak with him. The FBI never responded, according to the Dagestani police official."
What more did the FBI need to put Tamerlan under surveillance?
The problem is that the Chechen "freedom fighters" are US allies, along with their ideological compatriots in Libya and Syria. When the Chechen rebel "foreign minister," Ilyas Akmadov," applied for political asylum in the US, the Department of Homeland Security nixed the idea – but were overruled by a bipartisan coalition of political heavyweights, including Madeleine Albright, Alexander Haig, Frank Carlucci, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Ted Kennedy, and John McCain. In a letter of endorsement, Albright gushed that Akhmadov is "devoted to peace, not terrorism." McCain wrote: "I have found him to be a proponent of peace and human rights in Chechnya."
It's a curious sort of peacenik who once fought beside Shamil Basaeyev, commander of the Chechen "rebel" forces, and perpetrator of the worst terrorist massacre in recent Russian history: the slaughter of 300 in Beslan, many of them schoolchildren. Yet the US government not only granted Akhmadov asylum, they also gave him a generous salary at the US Institute of Peace (an Orwellian name if ever there was one).
Although support for the Chechen independence movement is bipartisan, that troublesome little sect known as the neoconservatives has actively backed the Chechen cause from the get-go: an impressive list of prominent neocons, including Bill Kristol, sits on the board of the Chechens' principal US propaganda outfit, the American Committee for Peace in the Caucasus (formerly the American Committee for Peace in Chechnya). According to Glen Howard, head of the Jamestown Foundation, a neocon outfit focused on Central Asia, the Chechens aren't Islamist terrorists, they're just cuddly "nationalists" rebelling against a Russia that has gone "fascist." "The Russians are trying to treat Chechen separatism through the prism of 9/11 and terror rather than as a nationalist movement that has been defying Kremlin rule for 200 years," says Howard. This analytical premise, however, doesn't seem to apply to, say, Afghanistan.
Neocon "national security analyst" Eli Lake reflects this anti-Russian bias writing in the Daily Beast:
"There were good reasons that the tip didn't trigger a more aggressive American investigation, current and former intelligence and law-enforcement officials tell The Daily Beast.
"Those officials pointed to the FSB's habit of treating much behavior by Chechens as suspicious, and nearly all such behavior as terror-related. The Tsarnaev request, they speculated, was likely triggered by the FSB's concern that he would participate in or provide support to Chechen insurrectionists in Russia, rather that by any sense of a threat to American interests."
So Tamerlan Tsarnaev met on six occasions with a well-known Chechen terrorist – probably Gadzhimurad Dolgatov, who called himself "Abu Dujana," killed in December. So what? That's no skin off our nose, right? Lake treats us to a quote from Michael Hayden, former CIA director:
"The FSB is mad at a lot of Chechens. Not all of them are terrorists, and even fewer of them are dangerous to the United States. When stuff like this happens, we did what we did we called the long pause. You get with your staff, you say it's these two Chechen idiots, you see what's in the database. You collect so much stuff, then you go and explain it eventually to Congress."
Lake has surely performed a service in helping to "explain" to Congress and the American people why the Russians were ignored, a deed for which he will no doubt be amply rewarded: access is the coin of the realm in Washington, and Lake has plenty of that.
But Hayden is behind the times in averring that the Chechen terrorists are no threat to America: a recent split in Imarat Kavkaz (Caucasian Emirate) has opened up in the ranks, between those who are more nationalist and the strict Islamists who insist on the goal of establishing a regional Islamic Emirate of the Caucasus. The UN recently added Umarov to the sanctions list of individuals associated with Al Qaeda and the Taliban. Dolgatov was the leader of a tiny group allied with Doku Umarov, leader of the ultra-Islamist faction.
A video extolling Dolgatov's martyrdom was posted on Tamerlan's Youtube account – one of two labeled "terrorists" – when he got back from Dagestan, and later erased – we don't know by whom. Tamerlan, like Dolgatov, died in a shootout with police, which is certainly what he intended.
Add to this the latest news from the interrogation of Dzhokar Tsarnaev: that he and his brother did it because of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq – two battlefields on which US troops faced off with Osama bin Laden's legions.
The "self-radicalization" theory being floated by numerous leaks from various law enforcement agencies is simple ass-covering, which "journalists" like Lake are happy to retail to the general public. To begin with, every jihadist is "self-radicalized" in the sense that they begin an ideological journey that starts within themselves: the phrase is purest malarkey. The line from Tamerlan's plunge into religiosity, reportedly encouraged by his mother, to his journey to Dolgatov's lair in Dagestan, and on to the Boston marathon finish line is straight and clear.
Dzhokhar is denying any involvement of groups in his native land (which is actually Krygyzstan, but clearly he sees Chechnya as his true homeland): according to him, he and big brother thought this up all on their very own. But he would say that, now wouldn't he? After all, an admission of overseas involvement might provoke retaliation against his friends at home.
This, of course, is the answer the authorities want to hear: it gives them some cover to say they couldn't have known, in spite of the Russian warning. Dhzokhar, having failed to kill himself, is a witness willing to be led: he is, after all, facing a potential death penalty. The whole cover story will be unveiled at his trial, where we'll have endure his lawyers telling us how he was "brainwashed" by his domineering older brother, and squish-head liberals on Twitter arguing that he was "alienated" by our irredeemably "racist" and Islamophobic society – no wonder he cracked up!
How did two Chechen punks – one a thuggish loser, the other a dreamy 19-year-old pothead – manage to kill three and injure over 250 people, inflict the bloodiest wound on the country since 9/11, and bring the entire city of Boston to a standstill? How did they manage to evade the multi-billion dollar "security" apparatus, which was set up with so much fanfare after 9/11? The answer is to be found in the manipulations and odorous alliances dictated by our interventionist foreign policy, a throwback to the cold war era, which has deemed Russia an enemy and the Chechens the Good Guys. After Boston, they are going to have a lot harder time selling that line.
American foreign policy is concerned with everything but what ought to be its central purpose: the protection of the American people. If our policymakers were focused on that rather than on extending US domination far and wide, the Boston marathon bombing would never have happened.

It's downright comical. So the Russians warn the FBI about some some guy who meets with Islamist terrorists, er, freedom fighters. But since the Russians have some incomprehensible beef with Chechens (a well-justified one), the FBI couldn't care less. After all, the enemy of our "enemy" is our dear friend, Al Qaeda or not. It didn't interest them in the least that this Chechen lives in America, is an American/wants to be an American, and is cozying up to violent Islamists?
Quite convenient that little brother shoots himself, what, in the vocal cords trying to commit suicide (?) and can't talk. So during the hail of bullets that rained on him by any and all bureaucrats with a gun, as heard on videos, not a single bullet hit him?
The final version of events is going to be hilarious. Little brother was self-radicalized by older brother, who was self-radicalized by freedom-loving radicals trying to overthrow Putin with the use of weapons of mass destruction (or does that only apply when used against Americans?). And then little brother saw the light and drove over older brother and killed him. Even though he was being followed, he vanished for hours before the entire US security apparatus from University cops to guys on Humvees descend upon him thanks to a call from a civilian.
Can't wait for the grand congressional committee report, or better yet Justice system jester Holder's report.
or clown
Ridiculous! United states everyone who kills Russians is a friend of America who would never inflict terrorism on America!! What would a Chechen terrorist be talking to an American for? Obviously just about how terrible it is there and never Attacking America because all the Chechens are attacking Russia because their all victims!! Nevermind what Russians say about al Qaeda! Nevermind the facts! Nevermind anything that is not anti-Russian.
Wake up people.., no matter who warned the us government.., they love for these bombs to go off so they can prepare for SS to come and knock your door., the us is at war with every nation in this world and within itself…, in such situation the good advise are given.., the warnings are out there.., but the question remains…, why they don't look and refuse to listen. Any wise government would have changed direction many years ago.., but for us being at war for last 60 years.., and categorically refusing to change…, tells a lot.
The bad part of it all is.., that us telling others how to behave, critiquing other nations, wanting for them to change and respect humans right.., among other…,
No matter how you apply lipstick to the pig, its a pig Justin. All the discussions now are irrelevant, just empty talk. What is happening now is called BLOWBACK. Americans kill people at will in foreign lands and they will pay a price, this is just the beginning.
Exactly. This is getting ridiculous. I want to say that I can't believe that Justin is really going down this rabbit hole. OTOH, it certainly ain't the first time, so why am I surprised?
Well, all the more reason for the conspiracy nuts to spin this is as an inside job "false flag" operation. They just can't accept the simplest answer to why they didn't follow up the leads they had on the perps. The simplest being politically motivated bumbling by a less-than-all-powerful government.
When I first heard of the Chechen connection I began scratching my head, because I thought they only tried to do these kinds of attacks within Russia. You know, "good guys" doing God's work destabilizing a country the U.S. doesn't have good relations with. So it would only make sense the accused bomber would bring up the U.S. in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The problem, I think, is that believing that the cold war isn't "really" over, that those dastardly reds are still lurking under the beds, waiting to pounce as soon as America lets down its guard, is part of the hubris of empire which still animates a part of the US elite. Thus, the Russian democracy is dismissed as a fake and its enemies are automatically deemed to be America's friends.
Yeah, check out those weird conspiracy nuts like Lew Rockwell, Gary North, Bob Wenzel …
The other Islamic group coddled by the US for geopolitical reasons in the Chinese Uiguhrs. If you recall, the US refused to return Uiguhr prisoners at Gitmo to China because they are considered to be "oppressed" people. I wouldn't be surprised if Uiguhrs do the next big terrorist outrage in the US.
"How did two Chechen punks manage to kill three and injure over 250 people, inflict the bloodiest wound on the country since 9/11, and bring the entire city of Boston to a standstill? "
The simplest answer is that, shockingly, because it's not that difficult when there's determination,
But how does it differ with sociopath killers (which I'd still doubt if we won't end up with that simply being the case, wrapped up with some "cause" and family-cult dynamics)? The main reasons is FEAR of something bigger to occur. The Boston shutdown was not just because of two killers on the loose but on what they might represent: more bombs, more plans, bigger ammunitions, more members. Only in hindsight one could argue if it was too "much" or not, as response. But at decision "crunch" time I think it's quite reasonable to react to the worst of the worst possible within reasonable parameters. And then 9/11 looms suddenly as tragic benchmark of what constitutes maximum impact.
Why is it that conspiracy nuts and paranoids take any fact (or pseudo fact) that is unexplained and spin it into proof of a shadowy conspiracy? Reality is messy; initial reports are confusing; it takes focus and patience to get at the truth, not seizing upon small details to tell the story one wishes to hear. The messiness of reality is not an excuse to create order out of chaos by resorting to religious methodologies, using "government" as a substitute for "God."
Justin's take may be right or wrong, but he is at least working carefully, using the facts as they are known to him. Give the "alternative theorizing" a rest until the dust has settled. And quit saying that Justin, antiwar.com, and anyone else who refuses to buy your "false flag" hobby horse is part of the plot.
"However hard I try, I just cannot imagine a straight line trajectory of a bullet with the mouth as point of entry that causes just a neck injury."
Are you a doctor, or simply a layman with no training, and little imagination? If you point the gun in the mouth downwards instead of upwards (the right way for suicide), you will hit the larynx, and may or may not hit the spinal column. Or do you imagine that they surgically altered him to make it look like he shot himself in the mouth?
Right now, the "official story" is "holding more water" than all this "false flag" hobby horse posturing. Why is it conspiricists have no patience?
The only reason I keep open the possibility of any "conspiracy" angle would be the near simultaneous events of the poison letters and the recent Canadian plot, linking to Iran in some forced convoluted way. All three together might then be seen as a pattern of psychological warfare to open up the doors wider for some summertime bombing campaigns over Iran and Syria. This all might work at the visceral, emotional level like any good old perception management campaign. Push a little bit further the people and they won't resist when confronted with a new "fact on the ground". Hell, they even might applaud it now!
It does seem like a familiar script. But I prefer evidence based thinking as so many things can go wrong with covert operations like this. No way I'd believe that "shadowy people" walk away from cases like this again and again. That would require too many supernatural abilities. Still it's an angle not to dismiss entirely. Especially the Canadian case seems forced beyond belief.
Again, instead of beating straw men, how about responding to the facts provided …
… there were drills running in Boston. Scenario: Well, see actual bombing.
Same pattern as on 9/11 and 7/7, by the way.
Now, use the facts please.
Judas??? WHO, Who, who………………. ?????????????????

C'est une bonne question. Notice footage of the small number of people behind the fence at the finish line – or is it the Finnish line? – (boy, I worry about getting all evidence-based because one tiny clue may not be right) – well the small number of injured is not faked except in reports of hundreds. By hour four of the Marathon, almost everyone has spread out very thin, and near the finish line, what with the Newtown parents in the stands across the street, you can certainly limit who comes into specific barrier areas. There is after all expensive media equipment. Initially, the same area was mobbed with people who look like African fans of the probable winners, people standing behind the flags who probably received a special pass to be there. Then they all leave, and the crowd becomes a small group – no more than 20 – of all but one white people. It's a silent movie, a ballet, so no one speaks. You don't even know if they would have accents if they did or not be able to form an English word. That isn't why they are there. A standing man on the right has a seemingly running fan T-shirt, Team Kerto. Now what's Team Kerto? At last search Kerto is movie set designer in Finland. Maybe he has morphed into a running fan by now. Maybe he had an amputation by now. You can do things with the internet.
So, the Judas could be anyone shooting from the west to east. It could be someone shooting for a future publicity for the company – not realizing the Wag the Dog implications. In the end, it could be someone demanding a pay-off from the so far $20 million Boston 1 fund (have you contributed yet?). Or it could just be something nobody will ever have to worry about because most people do not let themselves drop the revenge lust once it comes on them, until some psychosexual climax usually involving a war zone.
The truth is safe in a bodyguard of lies. It sits there to be probed by future historians, stirring over the ashes of history. We "paranoids" have nothing to fear. We are marginalized now and forever. We are the geeks who do not make the team. We must feel satisfied only in our skill at solving puzzles. But the herd has moved on to the next watering hole.
oh and put this on the pile…as reported on this site 111 people blown to bits and killed in iraq…YESTERDAY. this has been ongoing for over a decade. we cry and convulse, whine and moan like fear filled vacuous vermin over 3 murdered in boston but i'm sure those people don't mourn the loss of their dead. no, they're not trying to make sense of over a decade of murder, mayhem and death. the sanctimonious of americans, the usa chants, the faux bravery as they cower in their home like frightened sheep as their police gods force them from their homes at gun point is the most loathesome thing of all. a nation of cowards. to fearful to confront the truth that is the gov't perpetrating these crimes on us. we do noting.
Congratulations to Justin for a superb column, well researched and judiciously written.
It is very enlightening, much needed and makes good sense.
Russia and China remain enemies of the U.S., because whatever the Rusdian and Chinese revolutions accomplished or did not, those revolutions took two major powers outside the control and orbit of the West – permanently, it seems. The ties are broken and the Western colonizing powers cannot accept that. It means the end of their global dominance. In due time D.C. will be one among many capitals, perhaps with great influence in the world, perhaps with little – unless th US resorts to a nuclear war to stave off the end of its dream of world hegemon.
P.s. Yesterday I heard Allan Dershowitz here in Boston calling for trading the death penalty with Dzokhar (sp?) for his testimony. With Justin's column before me, I begin to wonder whether Dershowitz wants to make sure the "correct" narrative emerges.
Pps. I am also impressed by the number of comments that try to take down Justin's superb piece. Some one out there sure does not like it. Cass Sunstein's minions at work? Perhaps that goes too far or gives Sunstein's buddies too much credit, but there are obviously folks very upset by Justin's well conceived take. A nerve has been touched in the body politic.
Well, not interested a bit in conspiracies, I would like to know how is it that media all over the world managed to have access to surveillance videos? And why is it that on many of them there are several groups of Craft people, all dressed in Craft-style "uniform", same colored pants, and baseball caps with Craft logo. And most of them with backpacks. Considering that Blackwater/Xe and Craft are fierce competitors — and that the head of Craft was recently assasinated, isn't it a delicious theory that the two losers were actually hired by Blackwater — to mess up Craft's big federal contract. Part of which was the drill that involves a make-believe bombing threat at Boston Marathon!
I am afraid that we are constantly missing the forest for the trees. The key piece of the puzzle is that he has converted to SALAFISM. There are two tightly related Sunni moslem movements — Vahhabi and Salafi. Wahhabi is official Saudi Arabian religion, after the founder signed a deal with Saudi family. Wahhabis are known for their hatred of "shizmatics", that is, Shiia branch of Islam. Salafism is an old fundamentalist definition, but after they became a front-runners for Wahhabis — they have turned from fundamentalism to mindless cruelty. Their goal? Califate and obedience to Mecca, no nation states. And THEY ARE PROTECTED BY US. Salafist are the cause of mayham in Egypt and kill Christians, while our press put in on Moslem Brotherhood. The two cannot be more oposite, as one is for the nation, another for religion and whatever Mecca orders. Or more often then not — Mecca says what US wants. So we STILL support them in Bosnia, Kosovo, Russia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Iraq, Syria, Libya, etc. etc. BAN SALAFISM AND WAHHABISM and the world will be rid of terrorist.
I keep reading other peoples' take on the story because it is easy to get caught up in the official narrative at some point in the fiction. Of course real cops would never have let the younger brother drive off without pursuit. They live to chase people. They know how to cut someone off and isolate them. It's really hilarious that they expect us to believe they just sat there. But the lockdown of 6 towns being the goal, he had to be on the loose.
But since the two brothers were actors in a carefully scripted drama, as were the "cops" who pursued them, there is no reason to believe that logic and real-world behavior were mandatory components of the production. They are no such thing in a Hollywood-produced drama (even the shoddiest of which are products far superior to the Boston farce), so why would they be in a Washington-produced version?
Salafism is BANNED in Jordan — but US now is forcing Jordan to allow Salafists from Iraq, Libya, Kosovo, Caucases, and elsewhere — to enter their territory to be trained and infiltrated to Syria.
Our press has COVERED UP ALL THE GRUESOME CRIMES COMMITTED AGAINST CIVILIANS BY THESE GROUPS. Not only that there are many witnesses, these groups PUBLISH THEIR DISGUISTING acts freely on internet — and our press is still very shy about telling us the plain truth. Because they are OUR foot soldiers in remaking the middle east, Balkans, Caucases, Afghanistan, Pakistan Libya, etc. We also ACTIVELY support them in Egypt AGAINST Moslem Brotherhood.
In US, we have been allowed to think that these are "moslems'. That is done on purpose — to throw our own dissatisfied masses a bone. Salafi centers are RECRUITMENT centers for our clandestine support for "rebels", "freedom fighters" and what ever cute name we find for them.
Germany has recently banned two Salafi groups. But we will not. They are recrutiment centers. If the two brothers volunteered instead for Syria, they will have all expense paid trip, including training and monthly salary.
Now, couldn't there be a very simple and very logical explanation that the FBI didn't react?
Which person (even somebody who came from there) living in the US and wanted to get US citizenship would possibly go to Tschetschenia without the approval of the FBI? I'm very sure that this person had an approval to see those people and he was reporting HIS VERSION later to the FBI after his return. But, definitely, he wouldn't have told the FBI that he was turned over againts them. And naturally the FBI was trusting him and didn't recheck.
I think I know from my own past how those people are ticking.
The drill was announced at the beginning the bombs didn't go off till later, so the bombers showed up after the drill?

I myself can't blame the FBI, they were probably busy surveilling Ron Paul supports, Oath Keepers, Justin and antiwar.com, Alex Jones and anyone who reads his sight, drudge and all those readers, libertarians… That's a lot of work for one organization. What they really need is for the SPLC to write another stupid report. :)
1) Antiwar.com isn't a state. It doesn't have the power to "censor." You're free to say anything you like. However, we are not obligated to provide you with a microphone to say it.
2) Your comment was moderated because you said you "smelled a conspiracy." People say that all the time here without it being moderated. If you want to know why your comment was moderated, go back and look at it for the actual nastiness. Hint: Anti-Israel is OK. Anti-semitic is not OK. You don't have to like it. That's how it is whether you like it or not.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev: Alex Jones Fan:
So obviously, this was a carefully contrived plot by Alex Jones and some of his followers to boost the ratings of the show. Anybody denying this theory is obviously in on the plot. And Jones and his minions thought they could get away with it!
Also, any admission of overseas involvement by the surviving brother could see him assigned status of "enemy combatant" and shipped to one of our offshore torture dungeons.
State Rep. Stella Tremblay (R-Auburn), A Republican state legislator in New Hampshire is claiming that the UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT is responsible for the Boston Marathon bambing.
This starts to look like another episode of the neverending "XIII" comic series
If I understand Rockwell, he implies that this was another of those FBI "let's create some terrorists that we can catch later" job gone wrong with a real bomb going off.
But to me there is more to this.
> They are not all-powerful, and can't control every event
We know that, otherwise people would still believe the Gulf of Tonkin thing was an attack, or th USS Liberty was blown apart by mistake.
Enjoy photographic data form the 21st century.

This neologism pleases me.
BAMBING (noun, m.): (1) Faked up bombing or false flag operations by state or state-aligned organizations (cf. Boston) (2) Actual bombing by security-service-entrained people where the security service wanted to be too clever by half (cf. Oklahoma)
somebody told nbc (and we believe nbc) and nbc told somebody 2.
and nobody believes any of this.
Me too. It isn't even a good one but the believers will believe.
Hi, a friend from Boston who was there for all the mens and females winners,
he even mailed me a picture of that trash can on the sidewalk,
told me that this happened when he and his friends and many others
had already left! So that explains why no more people are on the picture!
I think the news reporters should find some old pictures of the young chechnya boys when they were about 10yrs old and than apologise to Russia for the brutle police attack on the young muslim boys . Maybe prosecute the police and pay the relatives plenty of public money for all the suffering the Islamic families have been put through ..
Hi Rick,
if you would read the Russian media you would know that the hostile relations between the US and Russia are mostly a one way street. The US politics is very hostile after the Russian domestic politics changed between Jeltsin and Putin. Naturally, that also has to do with the fact that the US during Jeltsins regime thought they could get the Russian resources almost for free using their Oligarchs like Chodorkovsky and Berzovsky. When this dream was smashed by Putin, the US turned violantly in extending NATO towards the Russian borders, building up the missile defense system for neutralizing the Russian defense system, supporting dictators in Georgia and the Ukraine against Russia and even supporting the Chechen Muslim sepration movement the Kaukasus region. I do not know of any practical Russian responses, but the Medwedjev and Putin governments many times tried to make the relations more peaceful, even trying to talk about the very hostile missile defense system which is now established almost around the Russian borders.
Part 2 follows.
And they also tried to make it clear to US politicians that those Muslim sepration movements like in the Kaukasus region or in Syria would be even very dangereous for the US at one day. They even helped the US with a base to move arms and equipment to their troops in Afghanistan.
But there are forces in the US who cannot stand good relations with Russia, since they want a free access to Russian the very valuable resources and there is a lot of money to make.
I just hope that this new government of Obama can see things more realistic and will reach out to Russia.
Hi Wolfgang. Yes, I think most here are very much aware of the US aggressiveness toward Russia, while Russia in spite of all that has responded rationally and friendly even.
With the narrative changing with the wind it allows for any and all people to snag a snippet they agree with and use it to reinforce their position. The "authorities" are tossing out a Narrative du Jour as this goes on. If they actually knew what happened or they wanted an informed public we wouldn't be seeing such a spectacle. And this includes the Ricin letters AND the Canadian "AQ" plotters.
Like digging in a barn, with all this "stuff" on the floor there has to be a pony in here somewhere.
[…] why didn't the FBI follow up? According to Justin Raimondo of […]
Only idiots believe that patience is a vice in these matters, since getting at the heart od the matter requires the gathering of facts, not merely fitting everything into a preconceived schema. Gathering facts, and interpreting them, requires patience.
He is by no means having a quick recovery, although being young, he will probably recover more quickly than most. He is still unable to speak, which he may never fully recover. If he missed the spinal cord, there is no reason to expect that he wouldn't be able to write, or that he would regain full mental acuity, as well as motor skills.
"You may feel comfourtable (sic) about trusting your authorities."
Why is this the first thing that conspiricists say when there conspiracy scenarios are subject to doubt? It has nothing to do with ANY feelings towards the authorities, comfortable or otherwise.
As for "the official story" having "flaws," so what? Virtually ALL stories generated by catastrophic events have "flaws," especially if one upholds the initial reports above later clarifications and adjustments. As for the rest of your second paragraph, it denotes virtually nothing, except perhaps when you say "I PRETEND (emphasis mine) to have learnt a bit about humans through experience." Perhaps you are pretending more than you actually know.
You mean, "if" YOUR INTERPRETATION of "the official story is accurate;" I see nothing superhuman, "unique," "incredible," or even indicative of wild character changes in Dzhokar Tsarnaev, as related in "the official story." He seems quite ordinary to me. What makes YOU an expert in such things?
Glad to hear that you don't need any friends. With your obvious verbal skills, you probably don't have any!
So tell me, paranoid:
What is this "game" that I have "no skin in," and what "power" do you believe I think I have?
right you are! this site is currently reporting that a bomb contingency was in place for the marathon. the fed pigs denied that dogs and bomb teams were on site despite the photos, videos, and eye witness accounts. now it's an admission that yeh, we had a drill basically going.
anyone and i mean ANYONE who believes this propaganda is either the biggest rube going or just in flat denial. there is no other alternative. NONE.
the most that I would be prepared to say that is at variance with "the official story" is this:
It is possible that the authorities had some information that an attack might have been planned, but were unable to act in time to prevent it. This does not meant that the FBI initiated the plot, or that this is some kind of "false flag" operation. They were certainly tipped off about these two by the Russian FSB. The link below is to Cincinatti, OH TV station FOX19-WXIX:
none of which has jacksh*t to do with the Boston marathon bombing. We all know the US military doesn't mind visiting mass destruction against foreign countries. That is irrelevant to the discussion. This is another example of the "I wouldn't put it past them" type gibbering that conspiranoids rely on, s if that were an argument.
HEY!!! Stop interfering with a perfectly good conspiranoid theory by reciting useless relevant facts! INFIDEL!!
Who gave YOUR facts to YOU, conspiranoid?
SO, because a crowd gradually transforms from a mostly African group to a mostly white group, and a guy with a t-shirt from a Finnish movie company is among them, it has now become clear to meth at in fact the entire incident was a racist conspiracy masterminded by the FBI, with technical assistance from Finnish intelligence. QED.
[…] Chechen jihadists; the bogus "safe haven" rationale for fighting the war on terror; the bipartisan coalition of political heavyweights that lobbied for Chechen Ilyas Akmadov's asylum – over DHS security concerns; more […]
[…] why didn't the FBI follow up? According to Justin Raimondo of […]
GARBAGE. Learning the truth requires making adjustments; only dogmatic fools believe otherwise. Often, it takes time for all the facts to emerge. Reality is messy; learn to deal with that. Deal with Facts and Reality first, and then, and only then, should you move on to Truth. Figure it out.
You forgot to mention Luxemburgers, Chechens, Moldavians, Allawites, and Lilliputians. So what? Was that the collection of nationalities you sold newspapers to, or did you cut their hair as well? You forgot to mention Aristotle, Socrates, Cicero, Francis Bacon, and Leonardo DaVinci, along with so many other luminaries. What makes you think the ability to write lists impresses anyone. You are a pompous pretender.
The Republican state legislature is Stella Tremblay, and here is one of her sources of historical knowledge (from Huffington Post article cited in above post):
Tremblay's history advisor, David Johnson, told The Huffington Post in March that former President Abraham Lincoln deleted a constitutional amendment and dissolved the United States, while also not freeing the slaves. He also claimed that the U.S. government is under the control of Queen Elizabeth II.
Yeah, that's a source I would trust for "the real story." She makes Michelle Bachman look sane.
" defying the laws of medicine, thermodynamics, ballistics, elementary psychology, police rules everywhere in the world etc."
You forgot to mention hermeneutics, nuclear physics, differential calculus, spherical geometry, heuristics, metaphysics, among so many other disciplines "the official story" must contradict. Is there no field in which you haven't participated, or nationality you have no deep knowledge of?
In other words, you believe that the government conspires because they are conspirators, and they are conspirators because they conspire! no facts are necessary, just presumed evil intent. It doesn't even occur to you that they don't have a monopoly on evil, or that some people can and do occasionally hit back, or believe that that is what they are doing.
As to your last paragraph, it is pure emotional nonsequitor. the fact that the government creates chaos internationally is not an excuse for creating a fictitious conspiratorial "order" inside your own head.
[…] why didn't the FBI follow up? According to Justin Raimondo of […]
In the absence of real knowledge, I'll assume incompetence or just the difficulty of the job. I doubt the even the top brass of the FBI, let alone the shlubs in the Boston terrorism office, have strong feelings about Russian natural resources.

DAVENPORT, Iowa - The Lansing Lugnuts' postseason run is over.
Quad Cities captured the Midwest League championship on Saturday night with a 6-3 victory over the Lugnuts at Modern Woodmen Park.
Marcus Knecht, who had the Lugnuts' only two grand slams all season, flew out with two outs and the bases loaded to end the game and the season as River Bandits reliever Dean Kiekhefer earned the title-clinching save.
Lansing's first appearance in the Midwest League finals since taking the 2003 title ended without a win as Western Division champ Quad Cities swept the best-of-five championship series in three straight games.
Quad Cities scored three early runs off Lugnuts starter Marcus Walden, who took the loss.
Lansing got on the board in the top of the first on Jake Marisnick's groundout that scored Michael Crouse, who led off the game with a double.
In the bottom of the first, Kolten Wong led off with a single, then moved up to third on a one-out single by Oscar Tavares. Jonathan Rodriguez's groundout allowed Wong to score, then Cody Stanley's two-out single brought home Tavares.
An inning later, Wong's two-out single off Walden scored Colin Walsh to give Quad Cities a 3-1 lead.
With two outs in the sixth, the River Bandits' Geoffrey Klein blasted a solo home run off Walden to make it 4-1.
Lansing cobbled together two runs in the top of the seventh. Matt Nuzzo's double scored Carlos Perez, who led off the inning with a single. Then Nuzzo came in on pinch hitter Jonathan Jones' RBI groundout to make it 4-3.
The Lugnuts had runners on first and third later in the seventh, but Marisnick - who hit just .138 in the postseason - struck out to end the threat.
Quad Cities answered with two runs in the bottom of the inning. Rodriguez ripped a one-out, two-run double off Lugnuts reliever Dustin Antolin, scoring Wong and Tavares to extend its lead to three runs.
Perez and Dominguez each had two hits for Lansing.

There are a lot of household problems that need a well thought out instantaneous remedies. Prime to all of these terrible problems is clogged sink or drain. Even so, some people just let this problem sit there for quite some time until they realized that they need a plumber or a sink fixer to get everything done. Little did they know that this problem is sometimes easily solved with simple remedies that even amateurs can execute.
Reasons for sink blockage and how do we deal with it
No matter how we perfect the art of cleaning the house, there are some instances that our sinks get clogged which for us, has no apparent reasons. It has always been a misconception for people that greases are just okay to pour out down the kitchen sink. We have to know the fact that this substance solidifies when cooled thus blocking the drainage. There are also some who throw away food residues down the sink. These stuffs just won't break down themselves immediately thus also blocking the sink.
- Cover sink opening with a cloth or vent – Commonly, kitchen sinks do not have vents, if so you can also use a wet cloth prior to working with the plunger.
- Do it with plunger – Filling the sink or basin properly is important to be able to work with the plunger properly. You may also apply penetrating oil or petroleum jelly to the plunger for better sealing effect. Glide the plunger and pump it again and again until you feel that water move in and out the drain. After several attempts, the water should be rushing out by now. If not, try it for around three-five times more to finally clear the clog out.
- Consider using auger– Insert this springy device into the sink's drain. Next, start using the handle. You may notice that it moves like a snake into the drain, if so you must be doing it right. Then you may start gauging its way to the drain. If there is a tension right there, the auger must have run into the clog already. You can also move to and fro the auger. Our goal now is not to entangle the auger with the clog.
- If at this point, the auger does not clear the sink blockage, collect water in a bucket. You can have your do-it-your-own hook to reach the clog. If still a failure, make use of the wire of the auger through cleaning out. If all failed, you have to contact your plumbing agency to assist you.
After successfully clearing out the clog, you will have to remove the residues sitting down your sink. There are several options on how we can do this. You can have those removed by using hot water or a detergent that may definitely eliminate the greases. Another option is for you to use drain cleaner to clear residuals.

MVCS – Leadership Institute (Mountain View Christian Schools) has been serving the Las Vegas community since 1983 providing superior education for students in preschool through 12th grade. MVCS – Leadership Institute began on a small church property located on North Lamb Boulevard with only a pre-school class. The church and school began growing and in 1989 it moved to its current location at 3900 E Bonanza Road. Located on 20 acres, the school and church facility included a 600 seat sanctuary along with an education wing that housed the preschool and elementary school students of MVCS. In the spring of 1996, a multi-purpose room was added to serve both our growing youth ministries and a new high school.
In the winter of 1997, a new middle school and high school education wing was dedicated. This facility offered students 14 classrooms including a state of the art computer lab, science lab, and media center and band room. Also In 1997, the Family Life Center was built and provided a new gymnasium for the athletic programs of MVCS – Leadership Institute. Later on the gymnasium added a commercial kitchen where today MVCS students participate in a Culinary Program.
Since then, the school has seen the completion of an Athletic complex on the northern 8 acres of the property. The complex is complete with baseball, football, and softball fields.
According to Senior Pastor Tom Van Kempen, "we are excited to see how God will provide the expansion of our church and school through the next few years. In the near future, there will be a new gymnasium covering 20,000 square feet that will include a commercial kitchen, three full size volley ball/basketball courts, a performance stage, a band room, a dance studio/aerobics room, a weight room, offices, classrooms and locker rooms."
Realizing the vision to become the premier private Christian school in the nation, MVCS will add over 50 new classrooms spanning over three new buildings. There will be 25 new Elementary classrooms built around the existing sanctuary, which will include an elementary computer lab and music room. Two side by side structures are planned that will also replace modular classrooms and add 23 new Middle and High School classrooms. In addition, the middle school wing will feature a common area for computer learning. The two-story high-school facility will have a computer lab, multiple science labs, and an art studio all overlooking a teen meeting area. The entire campus will be enhanced with beautifully landscaped grounds that will include an outdoor courtyard and amphitheater.
MVCS – Leadership Institute strives to achieve its mission of academic excellence and spiritual vitality through accreditation.
"Accreditation is a voluntary method of quality assurance developed more than 100 years ago by American universities and secondary schools, and designed primarily to distinguish schools adhering to a set of educational standards. The accreditation process is also known in terms of its ability to effectively drive student performance and continuous improvement in education.
While accreditation is a set of rigorous protocols and research-based processes for evaluating an institution's organizational effectiveness, it is far more than that. Today accreditation examines the whole institution—the programs, the cultural context, the community of stakeholders—to determine how well the parts work together to meet the needs of students.
Accreditation is inextricably linked to institution and educational system improvement. The accreditation process asks institutions and systems to critically evaluate their vision, strategies, priorities, leadership, and programs and resources. The process of earning and maintaining accreditation provides institutions and educational systems with clear and compelling direction for implementing changes to move toward excellence."(http://www.advanc-ed.org/what-accreditation)
MVCS currently holds accreditation with not one, but three different outside organizations. Please feel free to visit the links of each organization to become acquainted with the standards required for accreditation.
Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) -www.acsi.org

- Bible As A Core Subject The teaching of Bible as a core subject is essential to the academic curriculum.
- Academic Excellence Schools should be committed to academic excellence, maximizing each student's potential.
- Professional Development Professional resources and training are vital for the development and growth of Christian educators and schools.
- Great Commission Students and educators in Christian schools worldwide should be involved in the Great Commission by evangelizing and discipling.
- Biblical Integration The biblical integration of every planned learning experience is crucial to effective Christian schooling.
- Educational Choice The opportunity for Christian schooling should be accessible to families as a means of intellectual and spiritual development and formation for a life of service to God and society.
- School Improvement Christian schools should be involved in a plan of consistent evaluation and assessment for continuous improvement.
- Nondiscrimination The teaching/learning process in Christian schools should reflect a Christlike sensitivity, relevant to a diverse school community.
- Networking The ministry of Christian schooling can best be accomplished through cooperation with other appropriate individuals, agencies, and organizations in providing programs, materials, and services.

A violent man will let no one take his daughter from him in this drama set in the early 1930s. Clayton Samuels (Burt Reynolds) is the patriarch of a rugged family living high in the mountains of the deep South, who earn their living making moonshine. Clayton regards his grown-up daughter Florence (Hayley DuMond) as little more than a servant, but Turner (Keith Carradine), a troubled war veteran exploring the wilderness, sees a great deal more in her, and they fall in love. Clayton bitterly resents the idea of Turner taking Florence away from him, and their rivalry soon leads to violence, while Clayton still struggles to avoid drawing the attention of the law. Hunter's Moon also stars Pat Hingle, Charles Napier, and Kate Barclay. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

An 18-year-old student, Eesha Khare, has reportedly developed a new form of energy storage, referred to as a supercapacitor, that promises to recharge a cellphone in 20 to 30 seconds. The research project landed Khare a $50,000 scholarship and an Intel Foundation Young Scientists Award at the Intel-sponsored International Science and Engineering Fair, along with a $5,000 "best of category" award and another $3,000 prize in the chemistry division.
The solid-state supercapacitor is said to be composed of hydrogenated TiO2-polyaniline nanorods, which are claimed to support up to 10,000 recharge cycles, according to a SlashGear report. The prototype device is small enough to fit inside a cellphone, though Khare's tests were limited to illuminating an LED.
Supercapacitors have been considered for a wide range of applications, including electric vehicles. UCLA scientists recently found a way to utilize graphene to create supercapacitors, claiming such technology "does away with" the disadvantages of both batteries and traditional capacitors.
The California teen reportedly plans to continue her energy-storage research, and she expects the $50,000 to help with Harvard tuition. She is said to have been contacted by Google, though she declined to provide more details on any talks with the search giant.

In light of Colorado's more famous football tradition, its recent handle as a basketball school always receives a few chuckles. That shouldn't be the case any longer.
The men's team made its season debut in The Associated Press Top 25 poll at No. 21, marking the first time in 17 seasons that both the men's and women's teams are ranked at the same time.
The 9-1 CU men jumped into the rankings after Saturday's 75-72 win over then-No. 6 Kansas. The Colorado women (8-0), who beat visiting Illinois 79-56 right after that game, remain No. 11.
At the end of the 1997 season, the men were 24th and the women 18th. That season, men's coach Tad Boyle was an assistant at Oregon and women's coach Linda Lappe was a junior at Winfield (Iowa)-Mount Union High School.
Colorado's fans may be impressed, but Boyle is not.
"There are two ways I look at it as a coach," he said. "No. 1, it doesn't mean squat. It's somebody else's validation. I don't put a lot of stock in polls. That's what makes college basketball so different. Polls don't mean anything at the end of the day.
"Now, by being ranked, it does give your program some recognition and validation by other people."
However, Boyle can't recall doing so many interviews with national outlets such as ESPN and Sports Illustrated as he did Monday. He also is on recruiting alert. Now prospective recruits want to talk to him.
"My assistants have got me calling everybody and their brother," Boyle said.
What's more important down the line is how the victory over Kansas helps Colorado's rating when the NCAA Tournament Basketball Committee sits down in March. The win will weigh heavy in the computer rankings, particularly the RPI, on which the committee relies heavily.
"The RPI is much more important to me," Boyle said. "RPI is at least based on some numbers and statistics. It's not your reputation or lack of reputation, in some cases. The computer doesn't care if you're Colorado or Canisius.
"Whereas voters do."
However, voters wouldn't rank Colorado fifth, which the RPI has this week. It also ranks Kansas second. No. 1 is Massachusetts, which is 22nd in the AP poll.
"Listen, it's way too early to talk about that stuff," Boyle said. "I know it's the world we live in. Our thing is we've just got to take care of our next game. In reality it was a good win, a signature win for our program. I won't minimize it.
"But let's not put the cart before the horse."
The CU women next host Denver (1-7) at 7 p.m. Thursday. The men host Elon (5-4) at 6:30 p.m. Friday.

Statement from the family of Clare Shelswell
Mason County Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Dean Byrd just sent out this statement from the Sarah Wilson, wife of murder suspect Peter James Wilson.
Byrd tells us he did not edit the statement in anyway as Wilson requested it be sent out as is:
Hi Dean,
I trust this will become as widespread as the existing trash in the headlines.
Thanks for helping me get this out into circulation.
This is without a doubt one of the hardest letters I have had to write, because it is the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with.
I am choosing to release this statement to the media, with my family's blessing, in hopes that it will cease the garbage and lies that circulates as 'fact' in the press.
My daughter Clare - and please note there is no 'i' in her name, at least have the courtesy to spell it correctly - has indeed been killed by Peter James Wilson.
Anyone with a heart will be affected by this story, especially due to the brutal way in which she died. My family and I had less than 4 hours to reel from the events before it was making headline news. My request now, is that we be left to mourn the loss of our beloved daughter, granddaughter, neice and sister in peace.
My heartfelt thanks and appreciation go to all of the emergency personelle that have been involved in helping us navigate this trauma. God's richest blessings on you all for the amazing compassion and heart you have shown to me and my family during this time.
The family gratefully accepts all offerings of prayer and love. Asking us how we are doing is redundant and unhelpful - put yourself in our shoes and give yourself an answer.
Funeral arrangements for our beautiful baby girl will be released only to those who are invited to attend. There will be no public announcement - don't ask.
This is the only statement that will be released by the family. We are not interested in making further comments.

For Tuesday, June 28, 2011
POSTED: 1:30 a.m. HST, Jun 28, 2011
Hawaii Pacific associate athletic director and head women's basketball coach Jeff Harada has accepted an assistant coaching position with the women's basketball team at the Naval Academy.
Harada took over the HPU women's basketball program for the 2007-08 season. He took over a team that won two games and went on to win totals of eight, 14, 18 and 18 in his four-year run.
In 2009-10, Harada was named the Pacific West Conference coach of the year after taking the Sea Warriors to the conference title and their first appearance in the NCAA regionals.
"The entire athletics department is going to miss Jeff, but we are all excited for the opportunity he has at the Naval Academy," HPU athletic director Darren Vorderbruegge said. "Jeff has proven an excellent administrator and coach."
Brigham Young-Hawaii women's soccer coach Carolyn Theurer resigned to embark on a new career in the airline industry, the school announced Monday.
The Seasiders will announce a replacement in the near future.
Theurer coached the Seasiders the past two seasons after one year as an assistant at the school. She went 29-5-2, including a 14-2-2 mark, a Pacific West Conference title, a berth into the NCAA Division II tournament and a national ranking last season.
"The past three years have been a tremendous experience for me," she said. "I have grown as a coach and a person. I am excited to watch the ongoing success that this team will surely have, and I will miss them all with my whole heart."

Indiana Pacers president Larry Bird

In typical Larry Bird fashion, the Indiana Pacers president didn't get too excited about his latest accomplishment.
Bird separated himself from his colleagues Wednesday when he was named the NBA's Executive of the Year, making him the first person to win that honor as well as Coach of the Year (1998/Pacers) and Most Valuable Player (three times with the Boston Celtics).
"We had to take it slow and get some players we thought we could build around," Bird said. "It was a long journey, a painful journey. Now we think it's going to pay dividends." ...

This novel knocked my socks off for it's surprisingly modern feminism and descriptions of survivors of narcissistic alcoholics. Takes the gloss right off of the Jane Austen treatment of people of similar means and moral attitudes. The moral and physical fortitude of Helen is incredible considering the epoch. Despite the fact that she is essentially considered property, she retains her dignity, her wits, her empathy (even for her detestable husband), and her ability to love. Truly, this is a worthy portrait of and guide for survivors of abuse/alcoholism notwithstanding it was written more than 150 years ago.
Tenant of Wildfeld. Anne Bronte. 1920. It seems like I always end up reading several older books like this. Anne is not the writer her sisters are. The book is written in the form of letters from. Gilbert Markham to a friend and the journal of Helen Graham. The small community Gilbert lives in is astir because a mysterious widow has moved into Wildfeld Hall, a neighboring country house that has been deserted for some time. He is immediately attracted to her even though she is distant and reserved. He befriends her small son and gradually Gilbert and Helen acknowledge their growing attraction. However, she still holds back and says they cannot be together Mean while the nosy busybodies in the neighborhood continue to gossip about her. Gilbert sees her with a strange man and immediately jumps to the wrong conclusion. Helen gives him her diary to explain. She has run away from an awful husband. I will say that Huntingdon, Helen's husband is, among other things, an abusive alcoholic. Shades of the crazy wife in Jane Eyre! It was tedious at times, but there were enough plot twists to make it interesting even though the ending was never in doubt.
No quiero menospreciar a sus maravillosas hermanas , pero es Esta , ésta Bronte , la que tendría que haber triunfado más que ninguna .
¿Tienen ganas de leer un libro feminista?
Prueben con este y maravillense .
Tenía un buen recuerdo de este libro a raíz de mi primer acercamiento a esta historia, a través de la serie de televisión y un primer intento de leer la novela en inglés. Esta vez, sin embargo, no me ha terminado de gustar. A pesar de lo inusual de la historia y lo polémico que resultó en su momento, me parece que es muy conservador. Rezuma religiosidad en cada una de sus páginas, resultando agotador. El final es una explosión de puritanismo, sacrificando la escasa pasión que podíamos encontrar en la historia de amor. Es la primera vez que creo que una adaptación televisiva supera el material original.
My first outing in the writing of Anne Bronte, a powerful and thought provoking tale about the injustices women faced in the time period.
When Helen Graham moves into the long abandoned Wildfell Hall, everyone is curious about her story and her past. Intensely secretive, she raises her son in relative seclusion, but there is one in the local area who seeks to know more about Helen, and quickly a friendship between Helen and Gilbert arises. Mrs Graham becomes the speculation of much local gossip, and in order to clear her name in the eyes of Gilbert, she permits him to read her diary, and learn the shocking truth of the life she left behind.
Let me start off by saying Jane Eyre is one of my favourite books. Until recently that was the only book by the Bronte sisters I had read. In a recent women's writing module at University one of the required texts was Wuthering Heights, which I loved (you can see the review here.) I then decided to read The Tenant of Wildfell Hall as a result of some comparisons made between the two novels. All three books achieved greatness for different things, but the thing that struck me most was the bravery it must have taken Anne to write such a book in the 19th century, not only highlighting the abusive nature of her marriage, but also chronicling the story of a woman reaching out on her own and raising her son as a single parent.
It's an astounding book, especially given the overall happy ending - the majority of texts featuring single mothers tended to end in death and despair, but Anne's protagonist stays strong throughout her hardship, and ultimately gets the life she deserves. Many feminists claim this to be an early example of a feminist text, and I think it did much in showcasing how little freedoms women had, and how little protection they had in abusive relationships.
There are a whole host of characters - much more than that of Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre, and Bronte uses that to expand into many different sub plots as well as exploring different themes and different marriages. She highlights alcohol abuse, unmarried women feeling like a burden on their family and the inability to stand up to your husband in very subtle ways. Much of the text is written through the form of letters and diaries, which puts an interesting perspective on the story.
I feel the Tenant of Wildfell Hall is somewhat overshadowed by the books of her sisters, in fact I had never previously heard of the novel. It is an immensely powerful thought provoking tale and although I felt some chapters were a little long winded for my liking, it is a book that will stay with me for a long time.
"profane expressions, inconceivably coarse language, and revolting scenes and descriptions by which its pages are disfigured"
"a morbid love for the coarse, not to say the brutal"
"The reader of Acton Bell gains no enlarged view of mankind, giving a healthy action to his sympathies, but is confined to a narrow space of life, and held down, as it were, by main force, to witness the wolfish side of his nature literally and logically set forth."

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0140434747, Paperback)
"I no longer love my husband – I HATE him! The word stares at me in the face like a guilty confession"
Gilbert Markham is deeply intrigued by Helen Graham, a beautiful and secretive young woman who has moved into nearby Wildfell Hall with her young son. He is quick to offer Helen his friendship, but when her reclusive behaviour becomes the subject of local gossip and speculation, Gilbert begins to wonder whether his trust in her has been misplaced. It is only when she allows Gilbert to read her diary that the truth is revealed and the shocking details of the disastrous marriage she has left behind emerge. Told with great immediacy, combined with wit and irony, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a powerful depiction of a woman's struggle for domestic independence and creative freedom.
In her introduction Steve Davies discusses The Tenant of Wildfell Hall as feminist testament, inspired by Anne Brontë's experiences as a governess and by the death of her brother Branwell Brontë, and examines the novel's language, biblical references and narrative styles.

The mysterious new tenant of Wildfell Hall is a strong-minded woman who keeps her own counsel. Helen 'Graham' - exiled with her child to the desolate moorland mansion, adopting an assumed name and earning her living as a painter - has returned to Wildfell Hall in flight from a disastrous marriage. Narrated by her neighbour Gilbert Markham, and in the pages of her own diary, the novel portrays Helen's eloquent struggle for independence at a time when the law and society defined a married woman as her husband's property.… (more)

Colts quarterback Andrew Luck, here with rookie receiver T.Y. Hilton, has emerged as a backup fantasy quarterback who could make lineup decisions difficult in the second half of the season.
- Filed Under
I play in four fantasy football leagues and didn't draft a quarterback before the fifth round of any of them.
But, I still think quarterback is the most important position in fantasy football.
It's actually simple. Quarterbacks are typically the highest scorers in fantasy football. But, you got good ones after someone else drafted Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady and Drew Brees. Right? ...
