Skip to comments.Pentagon aims to buy up book (LTC Anthony Shaffer - Able Danger)
Posted on 09/10/2010 7:41:49 AM PDT by STARWISE
The Defense Department is attempting to buy the entire first printing - 10,000 copies - of a memoir by a controversial former Defense Intelligence Agency officer so that the book can be destroyed, according to military and other sources.
"Operation Dark Heart," which was scheduled to be published this month by St. Martin's Press, recounts the adventures and frustrations of an Army reservist, Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, who served in Afghanistan in 2003, a moment when the attention of Washington and the military had shifted to Iraq.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonpost.com ...
Thanks STARWISE. I guess those tens of thousands of pages in Wikileaks are okay according to the Obama admalistration.
Hmmm ... a presale.
I wonder if ebay is selling the same way.
I think you are absolutely right Roccus. The Able Danger story is long complex,and exhausting. It's very possible we will never know either the end game or the truth.
Good question Pen I am not sure either.
Your tax dollar at work . . .
Difficult to find this book now.
Once again vested interests in our govt. don't want Col. Shaffer's story to see the light of day.!!We have a bunch of a-holls running some our our security branches.
Probably the same idiots that have covered up everything about zero as well! Someone at their level is doing the dirty deed and giving us blank pages to read any time we uncover anything about this Manchurian.
Saw it ..
The despicable legacy of Clinton and Socks Berger
and their conspirators lives.
Just unnerving and infuriating.
It wasn't Clinton who placed Kean and Gorelick on the 9/11 cOmission.
ebay canceled order...
"When I listed this book, I didn't know the book was recalled due to security reasons; therefore, the information supplied in the item description pertains to the original edition and not the new edition. According to the publisher, the new edition will be released on 9/24 but several pages will be blacked out due to censorship. Furthermore, Ebay has advised me to cancel the orders at this time. I'm sorry for the inconvenience."
hmmmmmm....our overlord fascists got to them.
AAAahhh ... yep. The strong arm of the govt
is picking off their prey.
The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, also known as the 9/11 Commission, was set up on November 27, 2002 "to prepare a full and complete account of the circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001 attacks", including preparedness for and the immediate response to the attacks.
The commission was also mandated to provide recommendations designed to guard against future attacks.
Chaired by former New Jersey Governor Thomas Kean, the commission consisted of five Democrats and five Republicans. The commission was created by Congressional legislation, with the bill signed into law by President George W. Bush.
As I recall, the leadership of each side
chose their 5 members. Who d'ya think
chose Gorelick ??
I had one of those 'where were you' moments at an intersection when Fox News Radio blurted out about the mineral find in Afghanistan being the richest the world has ever known, with major deposits of lithium.
Maggie, do you know if what you ordered is a 'Trade Book' or the original 1st issue?
Hows a Palin/Shaffer ticket sound to you?
I hope the Col. goes on a book tour and tells all.
I see a copy for sale, but it is shown as a 'Trade Book' Got any idea what this trade book is? Is it an original 1st issue. I'd like to own a copy of this. Or, I guess I could read it on kindle.
Exactly, when you start adding it all up,biggest poppy fields anywhere, lots minerals,lithium, it all adds up to more questions about why we are there.
See posts 97 and 110.
It says a book intended for sale to the general public whatever that means.
Sad day indeed.Everything is upside down and inside out. We have a president and media berating our fellow countrymen as bigots and 'islamophobes' on the eve of 911. We are suppose to honor Muslims tomorrow instead of the victims of hate filled Islamists(according to Obama and the media). We are suppose to allow a victory mosque built on the sacred 911 ground in NY(while the very iman that is going to build it and works for our own State Department) threatens us with violence. We are suppose to stand down from free speech rights now when it comes to Islam. I can't take much more tonight. My heart is so big and sore it's about to burst! Nothing makes sense to me anymore(except the sanity I find on FR).
What really got me was this morning on F&F when they showed DNA markers by the hundred all over the building site for the NYC Mosque. Nothing drives how or what these terrorists are up to like that did.
They literally want to build a mosque(which I equate with a terrorist hideout) directly over the DNA of our fallen citizens to celebrate one of the few victories they have had over we infidels.
IF that's not sick I don't know what is.
But remember it's not built yet.
Thanks FRiend. I just got a good and needed belly laugh at Joe 6 pack's new post. An instant FReeper classic! Go see:
I needed a laugh as well doesn't get much better.
Must be a Fla. Keys dog as well,they all wear shades down here.
Best evah.
Hey, he just said we couldn't BURN it
Said nothing about digesting it
Wait a second! I thought in America we dont DESTROY books! Put Dark Side of the Force covers on 10,000 Korans and ship them to the Pentagon.
Got it ..
Release the E-book version so that the number of copies is INFINITE
ROFL! That was my first thought too. Wouldn't the publisher just keep pumping out the book as long its being gobbled up?
Should have kept reading, I see the answer to that now.
Good find! God bless you for wading through the Washington Compost.
Wow! Able Danger ascends. Haha! I hope it breaks out above the radar.

Important Message for Customers
On Friday, August 13, 2010, just as St. Martins Press was readying its initial shipment of Operation Dark Heart, the Department of Defense expressed concern that its publication could cause damage to U.S. national security. The publication of the initial edition was canceled. However, after consulting with the author, Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, St. Martin's Press agreed to incorporate some of the governments changes, which includes redacting classified text, into a revised edition, which is releasing on September 24.

I'll bet you're not going to get the original...
so, the FBI got his name and address from Ebay and stole the books? or not, and he's lying and buried them somewhere.... if he was smart.
Lucy, I'm thinking he's doing the "I lost my guns in a canoe accident" . He stashed those books somewhere.
I bet you are right. If I don't, I'll carry through on my threat to chargeback, especially after "backing up" my chat with Casey Q on FR.
It's been a few years since I did a chargeback. I need practice. The last time was for a fraudulent magazine subscription ordered through eBay and paid for via PayPal and AX. This time PayPal's not involved, so it should go through faster.
Sounds reasonable, I lost mine in a boating accident on Lake Meade...
Just sayin {;^)

62% of Americans surveyed don't like Obamacare... yet last week's debt ceiling deal allows the "Affordable (sic) Care Act" to continue to Steam-roll forward.
70% of Americans surveyed wanted the debt-ceiling increase to be accompanied by measures to reduce the deficits... yet all efforts to address the deficits were beaten by Mr. Obama.
90% of Americans surveyed wanted Congress and their staffs to live by the same Obamacare rules and costs as the rest of us are being forced to do... yet THAT initiative was defeated by Obama as well.
All 3 of these popular issues above were championed by the Tea Party Republicans... yet Obama's dominance over printed, broadcast, and internet media was successful in driving the approval rating of that faction to less than 15%.
America's Capitalsim, it's Global Competitiveness, and it's Solvency are all being HAMMERED by our current government, as growth remains sluggish, the labor participation rate remains at 35 year lows, and the deficits continue to soar.
The reason? Obama is OMNIPRESENT. He communicates his Populist rhetoric via a virtual, media MACHINE. His main constituency, (the 45% of Americans who don't pay federal income taxes) literally eat his message up, while they're signing up for their "gold" Obamacare packages for pennies on the dollar relative to the huge price increases that America's Middle Class is getting shoved down their thoats.
Now that the government is Open again, It's time to start hiring the 16,000 IRS agents who will be assigned the task of coming AFTER all us Middle Class americans, as we balk at paying the Obamacare subsidies that Mr. Obama's constituents will be recieving.
It's indeed, a dark, dark week for the underground concept of "Capitalism"...
... and the brightest time of all for Obama's goals of American Socialism, that today shines brightly on the mountain top spreading the planet's most extravagant entitlements onto somebody other than YOU!

Tom Brady vs. Gary Bettman, as NHLPA defends Wideman rulingGreg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy 17 hrs ago
Getty Images
The Dennis Wideman case has already produced one odd little connection to Tom Brady.
Please recall how in NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman's initial ruling, he used the private text messages between Wideman and former teammate Gregory Campbell as evidence that the Calgary Flames defenseman offered "hollow" apologies for attacking linesman Don Henderson. The NY Post among others mentioned this was "Tom Brady's worst nightmare," considering his own cell phone drama with Roger Goodell during DeflateGate.
Now, the connection to Brady is a bit more overt in the Wideman case. The NHLPA used the New England Patriots quarterback's fight with the NFL as justification for upholding an arbitrator's ruling that knocked down Wideman's suspension from 20 games to just 10.
Jose Bautista bat flip joins goal celebrations in NHL 17Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy 1 day ago
Goal celebrations have been a cherished part of EA Sports' NHL series, where they can exist freely and without the death stare of fun-smothering critics seeking to make sports an unenthusiastic variety of vanilla.
It's a safe space for flamboyancy, which is why we're happy they've provided a happy home for Toronto Blue Jays slugger Jose Bautista's infamous "Joey Bats Flip" in NHL 17.

— Marc Quill (@MarcQuill) July 28, 2016
Executed after his series-clinching homer against the Texas Rangers last October, the bat flip became a signature move in baseball and a point of criticism for old-school fans and players like Goose Gossage, who called it a "disgrace."
Winnipeg Jets defend controversial Bobby Hull honorGreg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy 2 days ago
Getty Images
Bobby Hull is a member of the Hockey Hall of Fame. He played 411 games with the Winnipeg Jets of the World Hockey Association, scoring 303 goals and lending that league instant credibility. He led the team to two championships as a member of The Hot Line, with Anders Hedberg and Ulf Nilsson.
All three will be inducted into the new Winnipeg Jets Hall of Fame this year. But it's Hull's honor that has caught the ire of some hockey fans and that of Colin Fast, a columnist for Metro Winnipeg. Because for all of his exploits on the ice, history also remembers Bobby Hull's documented incidents of domestic violence.
From Fast:
Domestic violence, assaulting a police officer, racism and pro-Hitler views? Geez, this organization rightfully shipped Evander Kane out of town for skipping a few practices and restaurant tabs, yet it's going to throw a celebration for Bobby Hull?
Hurricanes coach on Teravainen, goalie issues (Podcast)Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy 2 days ago
Carolina Hurricanes coach Bill Peters (beginning at the 28:00 mark) and NHL free-agent forward Sam Gagner joined the Marek Vs. Wyshynski podcast this week, as Peters discussed the team and his new contract.
We also asked him if he already had plans for Teuvo Teravainen, the potentially brilliant young forward that was acquired from the Chicago Blackhawks along with Bryan Bickell in a salary dump this summer.
Peters said he sees Teravainen skating with Sebastian Aho, a Finnish rookie, and Elias Lindholm, who had 39 points in 82 games last season.
"I know exactly where I see Teravainen slotting in. I have Aho, Lindholm and Teravainen," said Peters. "Now, where they go, I don't know. Lindy played a little center for us last year, at the end of the year, and was very good. Teravainen was very successful in Chicago playing the off-wing, as a right winger. He also has some ability to play center. I think that's going to be a line. That way, one guy can take faceoffs on the right side in the 'D' zone and the other guy can take faceoffs on the left side in the 'D' zone and all three are responsible defensively.
"Not that I've given that line any thought," he said.
Jimmy Vesey, Blackhawks, Rangers and the short list
Having the Chicago Blackhawks enter your rookie free-agent courtship is like making time with a woman at a bar just as Leonardo DiCaprio and his posse roll up next to her. "Hey, can I buy you a drink and fly you to Ibiza and have you met my friend Spider-Man?"
This isn't to say the Blackhawks are going to land NCAA wunderkind Jimmy Vesey when he can officially sign on Aug. 15, just that they're on the short list and clearly in the hunt. GM Stan Bowman took in summer league games while Vesey skated in Foxboro.
From Scott Powers at The Athletic, speaking with agent Peter Donatelli:
"He really has no idea where he's going to be," Donatelli said. "It's going to be up to the teams to sell him. … Yes, [we have criteria], but we're interested in what the teams say rather than telling the teams what they have to say."
But the potential is there for Vesey to join other teams as well:
Boston Bruins
Buffalo Sabres
Chicago Blackhawks
See above.
Nashville Predators
New York Rangers
Congrats on the most racist logo in hockey, Lake Erie
The Lake Erie Warriors are a team in the new National College Prospects Hockey League, a Tier II junior league associated with the Western States Hockey League, which begins play this fall.
With a brand new team comes a brand new logo, and the Lake Erie Warriors went … with … this:
So a few problems here.
1. It's 2016, and it features a red-skinned Native American mascot as a howling Mohawk'd savage.
2. The head is so poorly rendered that it looks like it's nestled on a plate of over-sauced meatballs.
3. It's 2016, and it features a red-skinned Native American mascot as a howling Mohawk'd savage.
4. The placement of "Lake Erie" on the thin shaft of the hockey stick reminds us of people who write profanities inside the grout of a men's room wall, except less legible.
5. It's 2016, and it features a red-skinned Native American mascot as a howling Mohawk'd savage.
6. The tattoo on his face looks like he's wearing a telemarketing headset.
Here's more about the team:
Bill Peters locked up by Carolina Hurricanes through 2019
There were 12 coaches who earned votes for the Jack Adams Award last season. Bill Peters of the Carolina Hurricanes wasn't one of them, despite having guided his team to within seven points of a wild card spot while having a bottom five payroll.
But while the voters didn't appreciate him, the Hurricanes do. Peters was handed a new contract that extends the 50-year-old coach through the 2018-2019 season, as Carolina announced on Wednesday.
"Bill is a talented, young coach in the National Hockey League," said Ron Francis, Executive Vice President and General Manager. "We are happy that he has made a commitment to the Hurricanes, and that he will be a major part of the team continuing to grow."
In two seasons, Peters has gone 65-72-27 with the Hurricanes. Their 86 points last season was their highest point total since 2010-11.
He's just a really solid coach, who had the team moving in the right direction defensively in his first season and saw the trend continue last season when the Hurricanes were 11th in the NHL in even-strength Corsi (51.5).
Bettman condemns CTE 'fear-mongering' in letter to U.S. Senator
Back in June, U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) sent a letter to NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman. He wanted to know why the League had been "dismissive and disappointing" in its reaction to an NFL official linking concussions with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, earlier this year.
Among his questions to Bettman: "Do you believe there is a link between CTE and hockey?" and "Do you dispute that the documented CTE of former NHL players, like Derek Boogaard, is linked to injuries sustained while playing in the NHL?"
On Tuesday, via New York Times reporter John Branch, we have Bettman's answer: "The relationship between concussions and the asserted clinical symptoms of CTE remains unknown."
On CTE, Bettman wrote:

Dennis Wideman and the 'concussion defense' slippery slope
When the NHL gets litigious, it's usually because it's desperately trying to maintain the status quo against an interloper that threatens it.
Like when Jim Balsillie attempted to use bankruptcy court to circumvent NHL rules and obtain ownership of the Phoenix Coyotes. The NHL fought him in court, and ultimately reinforced its right to determine the owners of its teams and the locations of its franchises.
And like when the NHL filed suit against the NHLPA after arbitrator James Oldham reduced the suspension of Calgary Flames defenseman Dennis Wideman from 20 games down to 10.
But when you look at Oldham's ruling, it's also about trying to stop "the concussion defense" from being a valid one in matters of supplemental discipline.
But there's another aspect to the concussion defense that's worth exploring.
Did Red Wings overpay Danny DeKeyser with 6-year deal?
In the NHL, there's usually a trade-off between average annual value of a contract vs. term on free-agent contracts. The shorter the term, the higher the AAV; the longer the term, the lower the AAV.
Again, in theory.
The Detroit Red Wings signed 26-year-old defenseman Danny DeKeyser to a six-year, $30-million deal on Tuesday that carries a $5 million cap hit. That makes him the 11th highest-paid defenseman between the ages of 25-27, making slightly less than Torey Krug of the Boston Bruins (25, $5.25M AAV) and slightly more than T.J Brodie of the Calgary Flames (26, $4.65M AAV).
Did the Red Wings overpay here?
The Detroit Free Press spelled it out here before the signing, with comments from GM Ken Holland:
"The player and the club both know what the range would be on a one-year deal," Holland said. "We continue to have conversation on a longer-term deal. I'm comfortable we can avoid the process. … Danny is Detroit born, he's happy with his role, happy to be a Red Wings. We are happy with his play."

Director: Bobby Rinaldi
Company: Wildlife Productions
Cast: Lance Romance, Erik Everhard, Dave Cummings, John Strong, Lizzy Liques, Trinity Maxx, Dick Nasty, Corrina, Tyce Bune, Julian St. Jox, Scarlet, Lianne Young
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
This tape's good for anybody, but swing/poly lifestyle people might be particularly interested.
Swinging couples come to Dave's house to have the wife spanked and fucked by pro porn guys. Now, some of the wives have done tapes, too, but that's not mentioned. Most of the scenes are shot outside in the sun, and they look great. Technically, the tape's in great shape, and the sex is vigorous and spirited.
The standout scene is of Lianne and Erik. Lots of British-accented dirty talking and exclamations of lust. There are some protests from Lianne's husband Mark that are hopefully staged, because Dave and Erik aren't terribly sympathetic to the guy's complaints. Lianne acts downright contemptuous. There's a brief bit of anal in the fourth scene with Corrina.

Washington is home to one of the highest concentrations of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) jobs in the nation. Sadly, our current education system is not serving all students in ways that will prepare them to take on these positions, or to succeed in college and career.
Teach For America – Washington believes that we can and must do better on behalf of our students, particularly students of color and those growing up in low income communities. We work hand in hand with community organizations, educational leaders and families to ensure that all children in Washington not only receive an excellent education, but will also have the opportunity to attend college and become the teachers and leaders our communities need so that we live in a just and equitable society.
Since our launch in 2011, TFA-Washington has made a meaningful impact on a classroom, school, district, community and broader sector level, thanks to our diverse corps and our 750 alumni.

Not just terrible, but illegal. They're setting their cities up to pay millions in damages.

As a "liberal" I agree with the ACLU that no government official should
treat Chick-fil-a any differently for the opinions of it's CEO. Millions of
people are not going to go there now and that IS fair.
But the government at any level shouldn't get involved to promote or hamper his free speech. That's rediculous.

Chic-fil-A should be allowed to open and operate in the same locations as other
fast foods regardless how bigoted their policies.
At the same time, they want their freedom to express and opinion, and practice their religious values; all the while at the expense of the Constitutional Rights of their target group. Pretty hypocritical IMO.

m.g. scott,
Not me. Sorry, if the president of a company wants to get all politically involved in a social issue, he runs the risk of losing business in the general population. Perhaps it will be offset by conservatives who get to feel righteous by purchasing chicken sandwiches from a company who openly opposes gay marriage. As for me, this company lost my business some time ago when I saw how much styrofoam, plastic, and paper packaging came with a simple sandwich. Ridiculous, you could fill a small household waste can with the packaging from your lunch.

interesting considering the to Liberal posters both condemned the mayors actions. I do not care for chick fil a's stance and as a private citizen will not patronize their stores but government officials should not be using their influence the way these two mayors have. I agree with screwdriver I am happy the ACLU has steeped in to protect chick fil a, I do not like the message but they have the right to scream it from the roof tops if that is what they wish and I have the right to refute their claims. Isn't freedom (and the ACLU) great?

what I find fascinating is that despite the numerous articles the Dn has run on this story that they have yet to mention the ACLU coming to chick fil a's defense with regards to these two mayors comments. I was wondering how the DN and conservative posters would reconcile this and the fact that many liberal think these mayors crossed the line. I guess now we know they will act like it is not happening.

I always that the ability to express an opinion was a right protected by the 1st Amendment.

Celeste e Verde Palette
Product Actions
Celeste e Verde (Sky Blue and Green) is a personal visual of lifestyle. Created by Maryam Nassir Zadeh for MAKE, the name was derived from Antonioni's 1964 film 'Red Desert'. Shot in Technicolor, the director's first color film was intended to be interpreted as a painting and inspired Nassir Zadeh's approach to a more contemporary, LA-set video work. The concept collection reflects a woman and her style in life: a life that feels spiritual, artful and authentic.
The palette is a colourful mix of contemporary pastels, fiery brights and earth tones. Colors are nostalgic, fresh and natural: a warm lemony yellow (Palermo), powdery blue (Celeste), deep rust (Brick) and neutral brown (in Earth), highlighted by a touch of Hockney-inspired pink (Tulipa), Coral, Tangerine or Fire for the lips.Style # 503316087

Genalyte received a $1 million SBIR grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to develop a biomarker panel to profile tumor antigen-associated (TAA) autoantibodies. The company is planning to collaborate with researchers at MD Anderson Cancer Center, Providence Cancer Center, and Wayne State University to select and validate the biomarkers to be included in the panel. The panel will run on Genalyte's multiplexed Maverick™ Detection System.
The aim of this project is to develop a test that allows researchers to profile and monitor cancer-associated immune responses with a blood test. According to Genalyte, TAA autoantibodies have demonstrated the potential to detect cancer early.
"The technology developed at Genalyte holds great potential as a novel tool to monitor immune responses to cancer antigens," Martin "Mac" Cheever, M.D., director of the Cancer Immunotherapy Trials Network at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center and advisor to the project, said in a statement. "This effort to characterize antigens as functional targets in patients could help accelerate progress in cancer immunotherapy."
Genalyte received a $500,000 SBIR grant from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) back in December of 2012 to develop multiplexed diagnostic assays for the early detection and monitoring of type 1 diabetes, also to run on the Maverick Detection System. This eventually led to the launch of a type 1 diabetes antigen panel in August, which the firm said was the first multiplexed assay that measures seven autoantibodies associated with the destruction of pancreatic islet cells seen in the disease.

The EC granted Cell Therapeutics' Pixuvri® (pixantrone) conditional marketing authorization for use as monotherapy in the treatment of adult patients with multiply relapsed or refractory aggressive non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphomas (NHL). The firm says it will make the drug available in the EU immediately, initially through a named patient basis.
Conditional approval of Pixuvri was granted on the basis of Cell Therapeutics' Phase III PIX 301 study, which showed that 20% of patients treated using the drug achieved a complete response or unconfirmed complete response, compared with 6% of patients treated using a comparator chemotherapy. In addition, average progression-free survival was 2.6 months longer among Pixuvri-treated patients, at 10.2 months.
Under terms of the conditional marketing approval, Cell Therapeutics will complete a post-marketing study to confirm the clinical benefits of Pixuvri. The EMA's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use will also accept for review data from an ongoing Phase III trial, PIX306, which is comparing Pixuvri-rituximab to gemcitabine-rituximab in relapsed patients with aggressive B-cell NHL who aren't eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation. The firm will make the trial results available to the European Medicines Agency by mid-2015.
Pixantrone is an aza-anthracenedione formulated for delivery via a peripheral intravenous catheter. Cell Therapeutics claims the drug demonstrates structural and physicochemical properties that mean it doesn't to bind iron and propagate oxygen radical production or form long-lived hydroxyl metabolites, which are the mechanisms believed to be responsible for induced acute and chronic cardiotoxicity associated with other anthracycline drugs. These benefits mean pixantrone can be administered to patients over the long term, without unacceptable cardiotoxicity risks.
In January Cell Therapeutics voluntarily withdrew its NDA for Pixuvri in the U.S., due, it says, to a lack of time to prepare for FDA's Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee review of the drug in advance of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date, which had been set for April 24. The firm plans to re-submit the NDA later in 2012.

Medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbances (MSTID) are wave-like perturbations of the ionospheric plasma with wavelengths of several hundred kilometres and velocities of several hundred metres per second. MSTID is one of the most common ionospheric phenomena that generally induce the perturbations of ionospheric total electron content (TEC) by ∼1016 electron/m2, which corresponds to ∼54 ns (16.2 cm) delay at GPS L1 signal. In the past decade, several new characteristics on MSTIDs have been revealed by the TEC observations using the dense GPS receiver network in Japan. In this paper, we provide a short review of these new observations and summarize the morphological characteristics of MSTIDs in Japan.

Best mascara i have ever used. I have been using Maybelline Falsies for the last 2 years but this knocks it out of the park! Fantastic!
Quick delivery, well packaged, fairly priced and quality free gift samples. Very happy!
Swift delivery. No hassle service
I've only used this once so still undecided but it does have my lashes looking long
This is my favourite to use, I tried a new mascara but came back to this one because it is fab!!!
This is by far the best, natural looking mascara on the market!!!! I've tried everyone and this lengthens like no other!!
Really good
Great mascara although I have to layer it a few times to get my eye lashes to look full I do think it's a tad pricey compared to others on the market
Fantastic product, I thought id never cheat on MAC but now I'd never go back
No better than other, cheaper brands, and certainly not worth 20 quid! Save your money and choose Maybelline etc!
Love the effects this gives but again compared to other mascaras this is a little more expensive love the wand
Fab product !!
Excellent mascara, best brush that doesn't get clogged up.
It's my go to mascara have tried many others but this is the one I always go back to
I love this mascara it's an essential product for me
Love the way it makes your lashes look.
Very good use it all the time.
My favourite mascara won't use any others!
Easy to order and quick delivery.
great mascara. Definitely makes my lashes look longer/thicker than other mascaras.
This product was a gift for my mum and she loves the mascara for the way it makes her lashes look longer and thicker.
The best mascara. EVER.,
This mascara isn't perfect BUT I haven't found one that beats it yet! It lasts ages and really adds definition, volume and length. It's very black. The end of the brush is really handy for getting those inner and outer lashes. The only "negative" is that when you first use it, a lot of product comes out, which is hard to stop, so you really have to gently layer it on, otherwise I find it cakes on and can clump your lashes together. Otherwise, it's typical Benefit - great quality, lovely presentation and added bonus - not tested on animals!

What should I do about:

Same question.
anyone find out the solutions yet?
having the same prob here :(
$content_width only used in oEmbed. It determines the size of embed content like youtube.

$content_width based on theme layout.
Yes, but what about responsive themes?
I use this plugin with great result.
Responsive Video Embeds
There is also JS solution
fitvids.js, but I prefer non JS
responsive themes usually have a max width - adjust the
$content_width to fit that max width; smaller screen sizes should then adjust automatically.
I'm not sure I'm following you @alchymyth. Could you explain in more detail?
It seems like there should be a way to set $content_width to a max pixel width, but still have it responsive to the available space. However, I haven't been able to find anything that explains how you'd go about doing this.
EDIT: found some agrement that this sucks: http://wycks.wordpress.com/2013/02/14/why-the-content_width-wordpress-global-kinda-sucks/
I also found out the 2012 theme makes the new WP 3.6 player very responsive. It's not a problem there. But I can't find anything about how they did it. And the YouTube player is not very responsive, the width of the video player changes, and the video itself resizes nicely, but the height of the player doesn't change (at least when dragging the browser size).
I have the same question. And I found one more anoying thing, I set in media preferences 2 sizes for the images (Medium and Large), but as i have a responsive theme and want to supply 2x images for retina displays my images are double in size, so my Large image size is 1600px and then with css is set to 50% of this size to look as 800px. I found that if I have a $content_width= 900 the size Large is no longer 1600px, is automatically set to 900, the medium size is not modified and is 1200px (bigger than the content–width). So i removed the $content_width function…

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Scripps Research and University of Pennsylvania will work together to find drugs targeting this mechanism.[krishnacreations-Fotolia.com]
Scientists from the Florida campus of The Scripps Research Institute say that they have identified a pathway in the brain that regulates an individual's vulnerability to the addictive properties of nicotine. The team is now collaborating with the University of Pennsylvania to develop new drugs to boost signaling in this pathway and decrease the addictive properties of nicotine.
The study appeared January 30 in an advance, online issue of the journal Nature. The paper is titled "Habenular α5* Nicotinic Receptor Signaling Regulates Nicotine Intake."
Specifically, the research focused on the nicotinic receptor subunit α5, in a discrete pathway of the brain called the habenulo-interpeduncular tract. They found that animal models with a genetic mutation inhibiting this receptor subunit consumed far more nicotine than normal. This effect could be reversed by boosting the subunit's expression.
The results suggest that nicotine activates nicotinic receptors containing this subunit in the habenula, triggering a response that acts to dampen the urge to consume more of the drug. "Our data may explain recent human data showing that individuals with genetic variation in the α5 nicotinic receptor subunit are far more vulnerable to the addictive properties of nicotine and far more likely to develop smoking-associated diseases such as lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease," says Christie Fowler, the first author of the study and research associate in the Kenny laboratory.
Nicotine is the major addictive component of tobacco smoke, and nicotine acts in the brain by stimulating proteins called nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). These nAChRs are made up of different types of subunits, one of which is the α5 subunit.
In their experiments, the Scripps Research team set out to determine the role of nAChRs-containing α5 subunits (α5* nAChRs) in regulating nicotine consumption. First, they assessed the addictive properties of nicotine in genetically altered mice lacking α5* nAChRs. The results showed that when these knockout mice were given access to high doses of nicotine, they consumed much larger quantities than normal mice.
Next, to determine if the subunit was responsible for the sudden shift in appetite for nicotine, the scientists used a virus that rescued the expression of α5* nAChRs only in the medial habenula and areas of the brain into which it projects. The results showed the nicotine consumption patterns of the knockout mice returned to a normal range.
The scientists repeated the experiments with rats and produced similar results. In this case, the scientists used a virus to knock out α5 nAChR subunits in the medial habenula. When the α5* nAChRs were decreased, the animals were more aggressive in seeking higher doses of nicotine. When the subunit remained unaltered, the animals showed more restraint.
The scientists then worked out the biochemical mechanisms through which α5* nAChRs operate in the medial habenula to control the addictive properties of nicotine. They found that α5* nAChRs regulate just how responsive the habenula is to nicotine, and that the habenula is involved in some of the negative responses to nicotine consumption. So when α5* nAChRs do not function properly, the habenula is less responsive to nicotine and much more of the drug can be consumed without negative feedback from the brain.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

Even Greater shot was meant for here
Seriously tho mate this truly is Superb
I feel both will still hold the energy of the shot and still encapsulate the image in a 3diminantion illusion.
Also around the left hand of the osprey may look great with added water spray at a pixel level.
and my last idea is that the removal of the lake shore line to the left of the subject matter due to my eyes are drawn to it... my eye viewing seems to be 1st osprey -2nd head of fish the 3rd lack shore line.
I'm not right in my opinion its just a positive observation looking through my eyes...

Vitro Defaulted Bonds Signal Sell to JPMorgan: Mexico Credit
Vitro SAB's defaulted bonds are rallying to a two-month high, a sign to JPMorgan Chase & Co. and BCP Securities LLC to sell the securities because the price overvalues the Mexican glassmaker's latest debt-restructuring offer by almost 50 percent.
The company's dollar bonds due in 2017 are trading at 74 cents on the dollar, the highest level since Sept. 2, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Jim Harper, director of corporate research at Greenwich, Connecticut-based BCP, said the restructuring proposal Vitro unveiled on Oct. 31 is worth "much closer to 50" cents on the dollar.
A Mexican judge ruled Aug. 12 that $1.9 billion of intercompany debt can be included in the restructuring, making Vitro its own biggest creditor and improving the chances the deal will win approval. Investors will demand higher yields on Mexican corporate debt on concern Vitro's move will set a precedent followed by other issuers, said Robert Rauch, who manages $2.2 billion of emerging-market assets at Gramercy Advisors LLC.
"We haven't seen any justification for these prices in months," Harper said in a telephone interview. "People are hopeful that the company will be forced through the courts, or through diplomatic pressure or through reputational-image pressure, to improve the deal."
The average yield on Mexican corporate dollar bonds has increased six basis points, or 0.06 percentage point, this year to 6.1 percent, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co. Yields on emerging-market corporate debt rose 20 basis points during the same period to 6.05 percent.
U.S. Representatives Patrick Meehan of Pennsylvania and Jared Polis of Colorado sent a letter to Mexico's ambassador to the U.S. on Oct. 20 criticizing Vitro's "unorthodox" use of $1.9 billion of intercompany debt to outweigh the votes of external creditors in Mexican bankruptcy proceedings.
Vitro halted debt payments in February 2009 after posting derivative losses of as much as $360 million and as demand for auto and construction glass plummeted during the U.S. recession.
Some creditors may be buying Vitro's bonds to increase their voting stake in the restructuring, driving up the price of the securities, said Alvaro Gonzalez, a credit analyst at Miller Tabak Roberts in New York.
The company's bond prices "are a reflection that the market sees a higher value on the bonds versus what the analysts estimate," Vice President of Finance and Treasury Adrian Meouchi said in an e-mail yesterday. The market "probably doesn't share" analysts' negative views of the restructuring plan, he said.
'Best Effort'
Vitro said Oct. 31 that the court-appointed arbitrator in its Mexican bankruptcy proceedings presented a proposal to external creditors that included $815 million of new bonds maturing 2019, $95.8 million of mandatory convertible debt and a consent fee of $32.7 million. The group of Vitro noteholders, which owns more than 60 percent of the company's $1.2 billion of outstanding senior notes, opposes the proposal and plans to appeal.
"The company has made its best effort to try to reach a consensus through negotiations according to the company's real capacities," Claudio del Valle, Vitro's chief restructuring officer, said in a telephone interview from San Pedro Garza Garcia, Mexico. The bondholders' strategy "is to litigate to obtain additional benefits, and the company isn't in a position to accede to these petitions," he said.
'Bit Irrelevant'
Del Valle said Vitro had the support of about 36 percent of external creditors for its restructuring plan last year and he expects more bondholders to approve the latest plan. He declined to comment on the letter sent by U.S. lawmakers and possible repercussions for other Mexican companies.
Vitro's intercompany debt, which was created 10 months after it defaulted, assures the proposal will be approved, Meouchi said in the same interview.
"We already have the majority when you count intercompany debt, which is an accepted part of the arbitrator's list," Meouchi said. "So what we get or don't get from outside parties is going to be a bit irrelevant because we're going to have a majority."
The group of dissenting creditors presented a proposal to the arbitrator on Oct. 19, spokesman Donald Cutler said in a telephone interview from New York. It proposed the issuance of $1.1 billion of new bonds, a cash payment of 10 percent of the outstanding principal of existing notes and a 61 percent stake in Vitro's common shares.
Vitro shares fell 0.7 percent to 11.12 pesos in Mexico City trading today. The stock has fallen 30 percent this year, compared with 3.1 percent decline for Mexico's benchmark IPC index.
'Really Disappointed'
"The noteholders were really disappointed in this plan because it didn't give any appropriate consideration to the terms that they proposed," Cutler said. Vitro and the arbitrator "didn't engage in any sort of negotiation with the noteholders," he said.
Vitro's Del Valle said he hadn't received any counterproposals from external creditors.
The extra yield investors demand to hold Mexican government dollar bonds instead of U.S. Treasuries narrowed 14 basis points to 200 at 5:05 p.m. in New York, according to JPMorgan's EMBI Global index.
The peso gained 0.6 percent to 13.3337 per dollar.
Yields on futures contracts for the 28-day TIIE interbank rate due in December were unchanged today at 4.66 percent.
Default Swaps
The cost to protect Mexican debt against non-payment for five years fell two basis points yesterday to 141, according to data provider CMA, which is owned by CME Group Inc. and compiles prices quoted by dealers in the privately negotiated market. Credit-default swaps pay the buyer face value in exchange for the underlying securities or the cash equivalent if a government or company fails to adhere to its debt agreements.
In the Oct. 31 statement, Vitro said creditors have 10 working days to approve the restructuring plan. If approved by creditors, the arbitrator then has seven more working days to present the plan to the Mexican judge overseeing the case, Vitro said.
Under Vitro's proposal, consenting creditors would likely get securities and cash with a recovery on current face value of between 47.6 percent and 60 percent, depending on how many holders agree, Jacob Steinfeld, an analyst at JPMorgan, said in a research note on Nov. 7. Non-consenting creditors would recover less if the company's plan is approved, he wrote.
The proposal is "actually worse than the company's previous offer," Steinfeld said in a note published Nov. 1. He declined to comment further.
Vitro previously offered creditors $850 million of new bonds maturing 2019 and $100 million of debt that would convert to a 15 percent equity stake if unpaid by maturity. The new proposal offers a 20 percent equity stake if the convertible debt isn't paid.
The settlement would represent a recovery value of about 63 cents on the dollar, Miller Tabak Roberts's Gonzalez said.
Vitro's Meouchi said the company may seek to tap debt markets after it exits bankruptcy.
"Turning the page on this chapter, we don't see why we couldn't have access to debt markets, since we're a company that generates cash," he said.
Vitro has reported net income of 750 million pesos over the first three quarters of 2011, compared with a loss of 671 million pesos over the same period last year.
Gramercy's Rauch said Vitro's use of intercompany debt may cause other Mexican companies to pay a "Vitro premium."
'Very Mad'
"If I'm a CEO of a legitimate Mexican company, I'd be very mad right now at Vitro," Rauch said.
Speculation Vitro would grant more concessions to bondholders may have helped spur the notes' rally, BCP's Harper said.
"Their bonds have been suspended well above any reasonable level based on the previous terms," Harper said. "They were priced there in the expectation that there was going to be a better deal reached, substantially better -- not what was announced."

Looks like Marni's streak of good design from Fall was no fluke. As they continue on into Resort and Spring/Summer, long-gone are the days of shapeless and ugly bags. This is a bona fide commitment to sleek shapes that exude sophistication and refinement. Combine these smartened-up silhouettes with precision-cut leather and you?ve got modern elegance that's undeniable. I, for one, welcome the new era.
The new season also introduces the Flap Bag collection, a vast selection of classic shoulder styles in lambskin and French soft-calfskin (for elegantly natural aging). Marni was going for ?clean and graphic? and executed it impeccably, all the while staying true to their trademark quirky-snob details (a touch of color-blocking, a smidge of hardware, you know the drill). Their way with studs is nuanced and ever-so mature ? no chunk and clunk for this girl! In every color of the versatile rainbow, these are the kinds of bags you could fill your closet with and still manage to get wear out of each one. To be available at Marni.
The post Marni Resort and Spring 2013 Collection: Flip for the Flap appeared first on Bag Snob.

Northview High School is a public co-educational institution encompassing 9th–12th grades. The high school is located in the southeastern portion of the state of Alabama in Dothan, Alabama, and has the 36th-largest high school student population in Alabama.[2] The school won two football state titles during the 1980s.
The school colors are cardinal and Vegas gold; their mascot is a cougar. The school includes football, baseball, basketball, softball, soccer, track, tennis, golf, cross-country, and volleyball.
Northview is part of a very active football tradition in the community and a strong football rivalry with crosstown Dothan High School. This was highlighted in a commencement speech First Lady Laura Bush gave at nearby Enterprise High School on May 31, 2008, when she mentioned Northview and Dothan as significant victories for Enterprise.[3]
In 2002, former University of Alabama head football coach Mike DuBose took over as head football coach at Northview High School. He had previously been named Southeastern Conference Coach of the Year for the Crimson Tide before poor seasons and personal controversy caused his firing in 2000. Dothan City school board members voted to hire DuBose, who came in with a wave of publicity and high expectations. However, the Cougars finished with an 0–10 record for the season and DuBose was gone at the end of the year.[4]
This was part of a tumultuous period for Northview football, which saw 39 consecutive losses from 2000 to 2004.[5] The team had won the Alabama State Playoff Championships in both 1981 and 1985, and made it to the playoffs five times during the 1990s.
Notable alumni[edit]
- Lawrence Dawsey – All-American football player from Florida State University and former NFL player (Tampa Bay) part of state championship at Northview in 1985
- Gabe Gross – college football and baseball at Auburn University and professional baseball player (Tampa Bay Rays)
- Kevin Jackson – All-American defensive back at Alabama in 1996
- Izell Reese – former NFL player
- Larry Roberts – former NFL player, part of state championship at Northview in 1981 and two Super Bowl Championships 1986 and 1993 (49ers)
- Clint Robinson, Current MLB player (Washington Nationals)
- Jamie Thomas – professional skateboarder and entrepreneur (dropped out before graduation)
Clubs and organizations[edit]
Northview High School also offers a wide variety of clubs including:[6]
- Chemistry Club
- Debate Club
- Robo Club
- First Priority
- Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA)
- Interact

LOOK: Justice League Assembles in First Team Photo
Comic Books, Film
Randall Munroe's xkcd epic "Time" won the 2014 Hugo Award for Best Graphic Story, presented Sunday in London as part of Loncon 3, the 72nd World Science Fiction Convention.
Presented annually since 1955 by the World Science Fiction Society, the Hugo is among science fiction's most prestigious awards.
Author Cory Doctorow accepted on the award on Munroe's behalf, and donned a cape and goggles at the cartoonist's request. According to io9.com, Munroe's speech indicated he'd asked Doctorow to read it as one word per hour, reflecting the pace of the animated comic, which updated initially ever half-hour and then every hour over the course of 123 days. (The story has its own Wikipedia entry.)
Welcome to Best of 7, our new weekly wrap-up post here at Robot 6. Each Sunday we'll talk about, as it says above, "The best in comics from the last seven days" — which could be anything from an exciting piece of news to a cool publisher's announcement to an awesome comic that came out on Wednesday.
So without further ado, let's get to it …
Troublemaker is a unique opportunity for Dark Horse, in which Janet Evanovich continues her best-selling Barnaby series (as first chronicled in the prose novels, Metro Girl and Motor Mouth) with her first graphic novel [co-written by Evanovich with her daughter, Alex]. Troublemaker is a two-part series–the first book comes out in July and the second book is due out in November. I recently email-interviewed the editor of the project, Sierra Hahn, as well as one of the series' artist, Joëlle Jones. Dark Horse describes the book as follows: "Alex Barnaby and Sam Hooker are back together and fighting crime the only way they know how — by leaving a trail of chaos, panic, and disorder. Alex, an auto mechanic and spotter for racecar driver Sam Hooker, is drawn to trouble like a giant palmetto bug to a day-old taco. Unfortunately, she's also drawn to Hooker in the same fashion. There's no steering clear of trouble or Hooker when friends Rosa and Felicia call for help. A man has gone missing, and in order to find him Barnaby and Hooker will have to go deep into the underbelly of Miami and southern Florida, surviving Petro Voodoo, explosions, gift-wrapped body parts, a deadly swamp chase, and Hooker's mom." My thanks to Hahn and Jones for the interview and Dark Horse's Jim Gibbons for his assistance.
Sierra Hahn
Tim O'Shea: When did Dark Horse first approach Janet Evanovich about the possibility of a graphic novel–how much were you involved?
Sierra Hahn: I've been assisting on Buffy Season Eight going on three years now, and one day discovered that Janet Evanovich had done an incredibly thoughtful review of Season Eight for Time magazine. After that, Dark Horse reached out to her not only to say thanks, but to see if she had any interest in making comics herself. I wasn't involved with the initial outreach to Janet, and came on board after a project was decided on.

What exactly is the difference between FWIW and IMHO?
English Language & Usage Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for linguists, etymologists, and serious English language enthusiasts. Join them; it only takes a minute:

Here's how it works:
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
In short: no, they are not equivalent.
Note that IMHO tends slightly to END a sentence, whereas FWIW tends slightly to BEGIN a sentence.
For example, that sentence could have "FWIW:" at the beginning of it.
On the other hand, that sentence could have IMO at the end of it.
Just FYI.
