Challenges in theoretical modeling of cosmic reionization"
Ph.D. Committee members: Andrey Kravtsov, Hsiao-Wen Chen, Wayne Hu
"Dr. Alexander Kaurov's work on studying cosmic reionization - the process of ionization of the bulk of cosmic gas by ultraviolet radiation from the first stars and quasars - was instrumental in combining diverse theoretical concepts into a single, unified paradigm that connects directly with modern state-of-the-art numerical simulations. This breakthrough will have numerous practical applications for the analysis and interpretation of the forthcoming observational data from the future James Webb Space Telescope, Giant Magellan Telescope, and radio observations of the epoch when the first galaxies lit up."
- Nickolay Y. Gnedin, Ph.D. advisor
Thesis Abstract: As the sensitivity and precision of modern instruments increases, the observations start to approach two digit redshifts, which is a mid-reionization epoch. In the upcoming decade we expect to have many of highly diverse observations of the epoch of reionization. Those observations will include: 21cm global signal and tomography experiments, improved CMB polarization measurements, the properties of individual galaxies including Lyα emitters, and the ionization state of the IGM through observations of the spectra of high-z quasars.
Even though for each of these observations theoretical models are already developed; there is no unified theoretical framework to analyze them altogether in a self-consistent way, i.e. to perform a full Bayesian analysis of all available observations. Therefore, I would like to discuss why it is still an unsolved problem and how it can be approached. In particular, I will talk about our latest developments in numerical simulations of cosmic reionization with full radiation transfer, and their interplay with approximate semi-analytical methods. Most importantly, I will review possibilities for the parameter spaces used in reionization models. In addition, I will present our recent results on more exotic reionization scenarios that include dark matter annihilation.

http://www.moviereviewsforyou.info — In theaters: June 11th, 2010 Synopsis:In Columbia Pictures' The Karate Kid, 12—year—old Dre Parker (Jaden Smith) could've been the most popular kid in Detroit, but his mother's (Taraji P. Henson) latest career move has landed him in China. Dre immediately falls for his classmate Mei Ying — and the feeling is mutual — but cultural differences make such a friendship impossible. Even worse, Dre's feelings make an enemy of the class bully, Cheng. In the land of kung fu, Dre knows only a little karate, and Cheng puts "the karate kid" on the floor with ease. With no friends in a strange land, Dre has nowhere to turn but maintenance man Mr. Han (Jackie Chan), who is secretly a master of kung fu. As Han teaches Dre that kung fu is not about punches and parries, but maturity and calm, Dre realizes that facing down the bullies will be the fight of his life.

"Around the Bend" is one of those intergenerational male weepies meant to send male viewers home for awkward long-distance phone calls to Dad. You'll laugh, you'll cry, your humbug meter may well fly into the red.
It's a road movie, too, not to mention an extremely peculiar 85-minute ad for Kentucky Fried Chicken. Clearly, first-time writer-director Jordan Roberts has a lot on his plate -- or in his bucket, as the case may be -- but he got lucky with his cast in a big way. The result is a curious hash: warmly funny in the comic scenes and shamelessly sentimental during the sad bits, of which there are many.
Sitting at the top of it all, like a scarecrow on the roof, is Christopher Walken. He plays Turner Lair, a prodigal son, father, and grandfather who has been AWOL for decades and who shows up unexpectedly at his family's door early in the film. His own father, "Papa" Henry (Michael Caine), is a puckish retired archeologist obsessed with planning his own death. Turner's grandson Zach (Jonah Bobo) is an adorable tyke who gets giggly over place names like Nepal (he pronounces it "nipple").
Walken, Caine, the kid -- an unstoppable strain of ham is evidently part of the Turner genetic code, but it has skipped over Turner's son Jason (Josh Lucas), a banker and soon-to-be divorced dad to Zach. Jason still limps from the childhood car accident that sent Turner running away, and he's still throttled with rage over the abandonment. If you can't guess that father and son will reconcile by the end credits, you have never seen a movie before.
The pleasure should be in getting there, anyway, and during its less calculated moments, "Around the Bend" delivers. "Some things are meant to be stolen," Papa Henry says at one point, and he's talking about movies: Despite unconvincing latex wrinkles and an on-and-off Cockney accent, Caine commandeers the film's opening scenes.
Then his character up and dies with absurd convenience at a local KFC, leaving behind a series of maps and clues that together make up an emotional scavenger hunt for his survivors. Off the remaining three go, leaving behind Henry's Danish nurse (Glenn Headley), whose main business is to talk funny and watch horror movies on TV.
Henry's instructions lead Turner, Jason, and Zach across the American Southwest to specific KFC restaurants, where they are then required to read clues taking them to scenes of past family importance and there scatter Henry's ashes to the wind. In general, KFC's participation here appears to go way past product placement and into outright corporate sponsorship. Aspiring filmmakers may want to take note.
Secrets eventually come out, anger is vented, there are funny moments involving a rescued dog and a second funerary urn, and a lot of Leon Russell music on the soundtrack. Walken dances a jig to the early Fleetwood Mac song "Hi Ho Silver," too, and you just know the movie will reprise that scene before long, after one final ruthless plot twist.
Lucas has to do the emotional heavy lifting in "Around the Bend," and his character is thanklessly bland as a result. Walken, for his part, gets handed the scenery-chewing baton after Caine retires, and he builds a convincing, off-kilter portrait of a living ghost revisiting scenes from his past. What few shards of unscripted feeling the film has come from him.
Cute kids, funny old folks, fuzzy mutts, '60s songs on the soundtrack, parental death -- with a film like "Around the Bend," you either come home with happy tears in your eyes or you feel like you've been mugged. Jordan Roberts will probably prosper in Hollywood: He already has the commercial knack for referencing human pain and emotion without actually getting his hands dirty.
Of course, audiences need and deserve tales of family reconciliation, but that doesn't make this one any less bogus at its softly fluttering heart.

Iowa City ranked seventh in the Peace Corps' 2015 listing of the country's top volunteer-producing metro areas per capita. This is the first time the Iowa City metro area (defined as Washington and Johnson counties) reached the top 10 on the list of currently-serving Peace Corps volunteers.
University of Iowa student Jeffrey Ding says he's unsure yet how being named a Rhodes scholar will change his life, but he's already getting more than the usual number of friend requests on Facebook. Ding, a senior from Iowa City, was selected as one of 32 American Rhodes scholars on Nov. 22 from a field of 869 applicants; 90 are named worldwide. He'll receive $50,000 annually for two years and will have the opportunity to attend Oxford University in England.
Immediately following the tragic events in Paris on November 13, the University of Iowa contacted the four UI students who are currently studying in France to ascertain their safety and provide necessary support. All were accounted for on Friday and none were in Paris during the attacks. Our private international security partner is providing regular updates and recommendations for our student travelers in France. We continue to monitor the situation and work with our program partners throughout Europe to provide support to our students abroad in the region. We also liaise with the U.S. Department of State for updates and analysis of events worldwide.
Snorkeling among marine life off the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji; a rainy Sunday at Vatican City as thousands gather for mass in St. Peter's Square under the shelter of umbrellas; closeups of many hands creating intricate art in northern India; a blood moon hovering over Mayflower Residence Hall; throngs of students on the Pentacrest during Homecoming.
These moments in life were experienced and captured in photos by University of Iowa students—both U.S. students studying abroad and international students here on campus. They are among the winning images selected for the 2015 International Programs' annual photo contest as part of International Education Week—a way to inspire more awareness of the many ways UI students can experience international education.
Every year, International Programs - in conjunction with Study Abroad and International Student and Scholar Services - hosts a number of contests open to our returned study abroad and international students. Cash prizes are awarded to the winners in each category. The deadline submission to the photo and video contests is October 31, 2015. Submit your entries today!
In this report, CCTV America, the U.S. division of China's state-run English news channel, takes a look at our very own University of Iowa. The video touches on the dramatic rise in its Chinese student population over the last five years, the challenges and successes that have come with that change, and the ways in which Iowa's relationship to the Chinese president has fueled interest in the university.
The 2015 International Student Support and Integration Report, prepared by the University of Iowa International Student Committee, is now available. Covering the period from 2008-2015, the report assesses the growth and effectiveness of programs and initiatives related to international students on the University of Iowa campus.

Rawduck is an all-day dining restaurant in London fields open for breakfast, lunch & dinner & weekend brunch.
Our menu at rawduck draws inspiration from many parts of the world, but the focus is always on simple seasonal cooking, robust flavours.. Like at our soho restaurant Ducksoup, our menu constantly evolves and is a celebration of seasonality, flavours and ingredients that we're in the mood to eat - always cooked simply.
We take a healthful approach to eating, and our all-day offering is here to nourish and satisfy. Brunch is big and our brunch menu brings together flavours and dishes from around the globe.
Ferments, pickles and drinking vinegars are an important part of what we do, and we make all our own pickles, ferments, jams and drinks in-house. Our day and evening menu both begin with either a selection of drinking vinegars or ferments which help set you up for the meal ahead.
We work with producers in both food and wine who are passionate about what they do and whose product reflects the true character of where and how they are grown. We apply the same careful sourcing to our wine list and work with a small number of suppliers who source interesting natural and biodynamic wines from producers whose wine making practices are carried out with love and care. We make all our own drinks in-house, from cocktails and soda's to kombucha and drinking vinegars.
We change our wines and cocktails regularly because we always want to bring you something new and interesting to enjoy, along with our food. We cater for outside events, and the restaurant is available for private hire.

This small hand-crafted range of ceramics Earth. Milk. & Tree. was born out of our love for all things made with time and patience. Like everything we do in our restaurants ducksoup and rawduck - these ceramics have been individually crafted by hand.
Vessel & Time is an extension of the vessels we use in the restaurants, designed by ourselves and made by our friendly potter in Dorset. The collection features jugs, cups, small bowls, cute bowls, dipping bowls and salad bowls, pouring bowls, vases and utensil pots and most recently fermenting crocks for the domestic kitchen. All made in varying clays and glazes, and each producing their own unique character.
Each item is different but it's the individual character of the pieces that please us every time. We hope you'll enjoy their personalities too.
For further information and prices please email us direct or visit www.vesselsandtime.co.uk to see more of the range.
Our ceramics can currently be purchased over the phone or at our restaurants rawduck and ducksoup.
Spiced Pickled Rhubarb
We're now in the forced rhubarb season - and we particularly enjoy using rhubarb at this time of year because its much pinker in colour and really holds its colour during cooking. One of our favourite things to do with rhubarb is sweet pickle it. It's a really simple recipe taking no time at all - the resulting pickle will last in the fridge for up to 5 days - not as long as other pickles might - but that's fine because its so delicious you wouldn't be able to keep it there for much longer before eating it anyway. We also use rhubarb at this time of year to make our seasonal drinking vinegars and if you're interested in knowing more about those we have a workshop on 22nd Feb - see our news section.
Spiced pickled rhubarb is delicious paired with fatty meats such as crispy pork belly or roast duck. We also like to eat it with a good cheddar cheese and a few crackers.
The photograph we've chosen is not our spiced pickled rhubarb as we wouldn't be pairing it with our morning granola! but the photo does show off the bright pink of forced rhubarb and we hope it will get you in the mood to want to cook with rhubarb.
500 g Rhubarb cut into 2 inch pieces
25o g Caster sugar
250 ml Cider Vinegar
100 ml Water
4 Green cardamom pods lightly crushed
1 Star anise
Pinch dired chilli flakes
Put the sugar, vinegar, water and spices into a pan, bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes to let the flavours infuse.
Drop the rhubarb in batches and cook for 30-45 seconds until the rhubarb turns a softer pink colour
Remove immediately with a slotted spoon and allow to cool flat on a tray.
Repeat until all the rhubarb is cooked.
Allow the cooking liquor to cool and then pour over your rhubarb.
Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to five days.

As to the float being either 1.7 million or 0.75 million shares, I don't care which one it is. Either number is about as low as it gets, supply is very limited. Also, the fact that there are no options is bullish as well; no shares of stocks have to be sold in order to purchase any options. As to the warrants issue, there are not enough to worry about them affecting the stock price.
Responding to the fact that KWIC and SIEB went down after they split, I really could not care less. When I sell VAPH, which won't be until several days AFTER the stock splits on March 8 (the next trading day after the pay date), I won't care where the stock goes from there, I won't be in it any more. Do you think most of the people buying VAPH will still be in this stock when the game of musical chairs stops? Most of us don't care where this stock is one year, 6 months, even three months from now.
Agree, as I said yesterday, momentum is the name, making $$ is the game, who cares for the long term. If these guys are truly for real, we will have lots of opportunities to buy back in . . . frankly I would love to shove a tube of Vaso-Rectal Cream to the guys who have bashed this stock. The normal rules for "normal stocks" don't mean squat in this situation.
Well, someone's going to be holding a lot of shares. You make it sound so easy, but the problem is figuring out when the music will stop.
Who are you going to sell to?
What you describe is investing based on the greater fool theory. It doesn't matter what a stock is worth. It doesn't matter what the price is 3 months or 6 months or 12 months. No lets all just buy at ridiculous price and then sell higher to a greater fool. At some point the music stops and there won't be any chairs or in this case there won't be any bids.
You will be upset if you don't buy this stock while it' still trading in the 30's tomorrow.
Sorry to spam you, but I wanted everyone to read this message. I imagine you guys are getting tired of my posting, this will be all for awhile. The_Emerging_Analyst (personally, I think he has a long ways to go) asked me who will I be selling to after the stock keeps running up until and after it splits. Well sir, I will be selling VAPH to you, because you will have been sitting on the sidelines, day after day, watching as this crazy stock that "only fools would buy" goes higher and higher, day after day, until finally, when you cannot stand it anymore and you just have to get in and get in on some of the incredibly ridiculous profits that my comrads and I are wallowing in, I will be selling my stock to you, on March 12, for $40 per share; post-split price, mind you; while you are then wondering why the stock is coming back down, my VAPH comrads-in-arms, (including but not limited to Kittenofclouds--after she gets back in tomorrow morning, baron_rothchild, dairygirl19992000, straightflushpokerface the V.P. and our nominated king, Sir hrcusa, ) and I will be planning our European vacation, courtesy of, you guessed it, that crazy, wacky stock! No, I won't sell it to you until March 12, sorry.
xluckystrike21, inquivista, knicks70_2000, and their king, gerwols, will be buying heavily as the stock slides back down to new all-time lows, and recommit themselves to never going long again.
Good evening, ladies & gentlemen!
You won't hear from me again until VAPH closes above 40 (next week).
What is the date you must be holding this stock to get the split? TIA
when a $60.00 dollar stock splits 3 for 1 it is now a $20.00 dollar stock!
So why care about getting the Split???
Some people should not be trading stocks.
The pay date, which is the last day the stock trades at the higher, pre-split price, would be the last day that you can purchase the stock and get credit for the split. Do not pay any attention whatsoever to the record date; sometimes you can get a small dividend if you own the stock on the record date, that is the only possible benefit. Trust me, I have bought literally hundreds of stocks heading into the split, it is very easy, don't complicate things with the record date. In this case, the pay date as stated in VAPH's 3 correct press releases (Reuters confused alot of people by incorrectly reporting that the stock would split tomorrow morning, which is NOT TRUE!) is going to be on or about March 5, which is a Friday. So in this case the last day to buy the stock and get the extra shares would be Friday, March 5. Monday morning your brokerage house will show that you own 2 extra shares for every share you purchase on Friday, and the price of the stock will probably be slightly more than 1/3 of the closing price on Friday (splitters, especially 3 for 1's, usually gap up the morning of the split, sometimes significantly; look at TASR, SIFY, AMTD, etc.). If you buy 100 shares of VAPH at $60 per share on Friday afternoon, March 5(don't think it can't get there), you would own 300 shares Monday morning, March 8, at a cost basis of about $20 per share (if you're unlucky, I bet it gaps up the morning of the split!). My advice is to buy the stock either now or before the split run, which should begin this Friday, Feb. 27.
Good luck to you.

Skip to comments.Hezbollywood Horror: "Civil Defense Worker" doubles as Traveling Mortician (Green Helmet Guy)
Posted on 08/03/2006 4:19:52 PM PDT by Republican Red
It was the shot seen round the world: shocking, disturbing, heartrending and intentionally so. [Graphic content appears below and in links.] A man dressed up as a rescue worker held up a dead infant, purportedly killed in the basement of a building that supposedly collapsed after it was allegedly hit by Israeli ordnance.
The AP wire story begins: "Abu Shadi Jradi pulled bodies out of wreckage for hours - two toddler girls wearing tiny gold earrings, a small boy whose pale blue pacifier still hung from his neck [sic]. Somewhere in the middle, Jradi slumped beneath a tree and wept." Since we have a picture of this man pulling the small boy out, it is quite clear that Mr. Jradi is the "Man with the Green Helmet."
Remarkably, although the child was caked the thick dirt, the pacifier -- which in fact was attached to his shirt -- was immaculately clean.
"'There are so many children, so many children," the veteran civil defense worker said Sunday, barely able to get out the words.'"
Certainly the man called Abu Shadi Jradi is a veteran. In April 1996, after a misguided Israeli airstrike which really did kill scores of civilians, he appears in a similar pose [Extremely graphic image], holding up a child's bloodied headless body for the press to photograph. But is he a civil defense worker? http://resistance.jeeran.com/massacres/qana/001.jpg
Some problematic facts surrounding the Qana incident are already well known. A senior Israel Air Force general said that helicopters fired two rockets -- one of which turned out to be a dud -- just after midnight but the collapse of the house was only reported after 7. Brent Sadler of CNN reported that the only visible crater was 20 or 30 meters from the building. The Israeli general was baffled why the house would have collapsed six or seven hours after the airstrike. It's also possible that, if the crater was up to 100 feet away, the Israeli target was not even the building where the people died.
Other inconsistencies with earlier reports have also appeared in the local press. Rather than a four-story completed apartment building, the Lebanese Star reported on July 31, "The half-finished three-story house belonged to Abbas Hashem and lay at the end of a narrow lane that winds down a hillside flanked by olive groves and small tobacco patches. The Hashem family and their close neighbors, the Shalhoubs, had moved onto the ground floor 10 days earlier, hoping that a large pile of dirt and sand for construction would help protect them."
The fact that it was a building under construction might explain the otherwise inexplicable collapse. But if in fact they sheltered on the first floor, how to explain the fact that the bodies were being pulled from the basement?
Despite extensive coverage in the blogosphere, one key fact has been missing: the identity of the person prominently posing many of the corpses for the international press. Against the powerful images of dead children, facts and reason don't stand a chance. Later in the AP report we learn about the circumstances by which Jradi said he was summoned to the scene. "Jradi said he got the call to rush to Qana from Tyre. But he couldn't go immediately, with Israeli warplanes still overhead. 'It was too dangerous,' he said." Abu Shadi, it turns out, has a very distinctive form of transportation.
He was also photographed in Qana holding a dead child while in full rescue worker gear in one picture. But in another he is holding the same child dressed just in a black t-shirt, without his flak jacket, flourescent vest, radio and helmet. In the widely distributed blog entry Milking It, EUReferendum exhaustively examines the photographic evidence and time-stamps of the "rescue" operation.
The man and his refrigerator truck But here's something new, which may explain a great deal:
Mark MacKinnon of The Globe and Mail reported from nearby Tyre, Lebanon on July 26, describing the many difficulties caused by the rising death toll in that city. "Abu Shadi, the mortician at the government hospital in the city, agrees. He's processed 100 bodies -- many of them grotesquely mangled and burned -- and on his pickup runs has been forced to leave behind many more that he can't recover from cars and destroyed buildings.
"It's much more [than the official count]," he says. "There are many trapped under the rubble. The death toll will reach 1,000."
"Mr. Shadi was standing in front of a refrigeration truck that was packed with 20 bodies, days after he helped bury 74 bodies in a mass grave. When he opened the door to show the black body bags haphazardly piled on top of each other, a staggering stench came out, despite the refrigeration. Next to the truck stood 40 empty wooden caskets, waiting for new arrivals."
Based on these descriptions, it seems highly likely that Abu Shadi the mortician and Abu Shadi the green-helmeted "civil defense worker" are one and the same. And, in the double role, Abu Shadi was among the first to arrive, before the media did, with his refrigerated truck that in recent days had been carrying around corpses.
"The refrigerated truck that bodies are stored in had just emptied the day before with a mass burial. It is already filling up again, with the bodies of children. "
We have pictures of Abu Shadi Jradi standing by the refrigerator truck, corpse in hand, and then, in different dress, posing with the same corpse in a different location.
Complicating the naming issue is a video which shows him at Qana, addressed in Arabic by a journalist by the named of "Abdel Qader" although -- as in the case of Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen), Yasser Arafat (Abu Amar) and many others -- the "Abu" may be a nom de guerre.
The tantalizing question, which may never be answered, is this: was Abu Shadi's refrigerated truck empty when he arrived at Qana that morning?
One might also ask: why was a "mortician" was among the first to be called to a presumed rescue situation, the very same "mortician" who ten years ago was posing headless child corpses?
Mr. Shadi had claimed much numbers twice as high, repeated -- even to this day. "Green Helmet" says in the video that fifteen bodies have been pulled from the wreckage, and he estimates that there were 210 (!) total victims.
The Red Cross and Human Rights Watch now confirm that the quantity of deaths has been greatly exaggerated, nearly double what was claimed by Lebanese officials. There were not "dozens" of children killed, as early reports have claimed.
And there really is no way to know by how much the deaths have been "padded" with refrigerated and transplanted corpses from Tyre or other locations.
And there remains the horrific possibility, as reported in a Lebanese publication but not confirmed, that Hezbollah placed rocket launchers on the roof and brought disabled children and the aged to be sacrificial victims, precisely as they became, possibly after a detonation of explosively charges long after the Israeli attack.
Calm, morning light shines on AP photographers AP headquarters was thrilled by the results of their team at Qana. An internal memo leaked to the LGF blog not only celebrated their excellent work but awarded them a munificent cash prize of $500 to share among them for their accomplishment:
"Nasser's most haunting image showed a man emerging from the rubble carrying the lifeless and dust-covered body of a child. Calm, morning light shone down on man and child, highlighting them against an almost monochrome background of pure rubble. ... Nasser's image ran on the front pages of at least 33 newspapers, including the San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer and the New York Post. It also won a double-page center spread in The Guardian of London. Lefteris's image of a resident weeping next to a row of bodies made the front of The Washington Post, among many others."
For days AP repeated the inflated figures, which continue to be parroted by supposedly reputable news organizations. They don't question or don't worry that the photographs were not staged or posed, even when it becomes clear that the person doing the staging and posing is not a rescue worker but the local mortician, with at least a decade experience specializing in atrocity shots.
Much attention has been focused on the timing of the photographs in an attempt to determine how long Abu Shadi Jradi was parading around the bodies. That would be inappropriate, even ghoulish, if Mr. Shadi Jradi was only a civil defense worker. But it would make perfect sense if his day job is mortician.
A mortician, after all, has the job of making corpses presentable, dressing them and posing them for public viewing. Abu Shadi Jradi is good at his job, so the media can do theirs.
That's Hezbollywood.

Saddam Hussein blames western sanctions for the dying children of Iraq. (excerpt)
"They used to collect children's bodies and put them in freezers for two, three or even six or seven months - God knows - till the smell gets so unbearable. Then, they arrange the mass funerals."
The logic being, the more dead babies, the better for Saddam. That way, he can weaken public support in the west for sanctions. That means that parents who have lost a baby can't bury it until the regime says so.
Thanks for the post. This sheds even more light on this sub-human. Can't wait until he's riding in the back of that refrigerated truck.

Someone could really win a prize by interviewing the people of that town unitl he knew what really happened. shows the weakness of rushing strangers into a situation and thinking their pics and reports represent reality. Probably only phone cameras are real, now.
Yeah, the townspeople know. But, they can't talk now. There are going to be a lot of amazing stories some day when all this is over with.
Another Jenin "massacre", same old same old but the world falls for it.
But the Washington Post assured me that this was on the up and up, and that anyone that doubted it was a conspiracy nut. I'm shocked!
An email was sent out to Associated Press staffers that praised the work of its photographers during the Israeli-Hezbollah conflict. There's even a cash prize of $500 dollars that apparently will get split eight ways. The photographers who took the pictures of dead children in Qana will take part in the reward.
Is this what it takes? If we paid them $500 dollars, maybe photographers in the region would take pictures of terrorists hiding behind human shields.

US Blogs: Reuters doctored Beirut photo
I happened upon Austin American-Statesman's 7/31 front page (can't seem to find it on the web). The reason it caught my attention was the huge picture of Green Helmet Guy carrying the child with the oddly bent arm. It's a new pose I hadn't seen before. Helmet guy, in profile, seems to be crying to the heavens about the atrocities with the poor child in his arms and rubble in the background. Guess who took the picture? Yep, you guessed it. Nassar Nassar himself. Seems they've been together for at least 10 years. Wonder how much they get paid for these scams.
Within that article, in the comment section is a link to yet another picture of a bloody scene of an Israeli attack on Aug. 5 in Tyre. You get one guess who is the subject in the photo.
Adjusting my tin foil hat, but Green Helmet might warrant some investigation in any unsolved deaths in that area, and even solved murder cases if he was the government coroner who did the autopsies.
I've seen enough of paliwood to be disgusted by it's constant appearance as news.
That said - there are a couple points in your analysis that you need to revise.
1) How did the victims end up in the basement? This is basic. When a building collapses inwards (from above), no matter what floor you are on - you will end up in the basement buried in rubble from the collapse above and around you. On this point, the Qana building collapse is realistic.
2) The Mortician theory - dressing bodies for funerals:
Funerals in the Middle east are very different from what you may be used to. The practise of decorating a body with makeup and nice clothes is common for "open casket funerals". These are soooo rare in the Middle east as to be almost non-existant. They are forbidden by both Muslim and Jewish law and outside of eastern orthodox Christian practises. Generally, bodies are cleaned with water, wrapped in cloth and placed either directly into the earth or first into a simple wooden coffin. There is no "viewing". If Green hat is indeed a mortician (and I would highly doubt the calling a mortician to a rescue in another town) - he is most likely unfamiliar with tecniques for making a body attractive for viewing.
As he is so many photos for such a long period of time it is more likely that he is either in the employ of a photographer/news agency, or part of a local rescue unit - taking on whatever title makes his media appearance seem more believable. Basically - not a mortician.
1) If the victims were on the first floor during the collapse, there would be rubble underneath them. It would be easy enough to tell whether they were in the basement or not.
2) The comment was an analogy to western morticians, not meant to describe what this green hat guy does. Maybe he clipped on a binkie to make it look more tragic, maybe someone else did. The point is it's perfectly clean while the child is covered in dirt.
He calls himself a mortician, and has access to a vanload of corpses. He also has connections to Hezbollah. It ain't his first time at the dance. Not too hard to connect the dots.
Thanks for the welcome.
I really don't dispute that GREEN HAT is not the character he claims to be. I've been looking over Hajj's photos and so many of them are obviously staged. I would tend to believe at this point that both Hajj and his GREEN HAT actor are applying for unemployment.
On your points:
1) the building collapse
A couple years ago a local building collapsed here from the 3rd floor during a wedding reception. Hundreds of guests were seriously injured and several died. Rescue workers went through the night trying to pull out the survivors while they were still "survivors".
It's very difficult to analyze how the rubble sits after such an event - it really depends on where the collapse began (from the walls, the ceiling or the floor). If the collapse was from the center - the amount of rubble beneath the victims would indeed be much less than the amount above. And all the victims would end up at the lowest possible level of the building.
I really do believe that a building collapsed and that victims were caught inside.
Using them for "staging" though is unethical and untenable. Reviewing all Hajj's shots from this day clearly show "staging". Many of the children's corpses were used over and over in photo shoots throughout the day. No doubt the greatly exaggerated numbers also originated from the "stagers"
2) the "Binkie" - another staging give-away. Yes - way too clean and obviously NOT part of the childs original attire.
Oversights like this are very common among Palestinian "staging" photographers. It is what it is.
I personally think the real problem lies with News agencies - who will always pay top dollar for the most dramatized - attention gaining pic or headline. They are partly responsible for the creation of men like Hajj.
You could be right - that the children died of other causes. After closely screening the pics available though (not Hajj's of course) - there is no evidence to show that the event itself was staged.
1) The children appear to be in a state of rigor mortis. This occurs shortly after death and doesn't last very long.
2) We do not have photos of all the victims (and the Red Cross did not order autopsies) - so it's difficult to assess trauma damage. If the children were caught in a collapse some would have died via suffocation (dust and debris) and some from head trauma (common in small children) and some from other, more visible traumas. So far, the visuals are quite similar to victims of building collapses during earthquakes.
3) We have absolutely no way of knowing what caused the building collapse (bomb from above, explosion from below or within, structural damage???). Damages and trauma are different depending on the collapse origin and direction.
4) The International media seem little interested in the truth. They are looking for the "shocking" headlines to grab their audiences. In this race for ratings the means to reach the truth is now permanently buried.
5) The theory that the bodies were planted is not one I would be willing at this point to entertain. It simply raises more questions than can be answered (ie: rigor mortis = recent death; difficult to plant bodies deeply underneath existing rubble; too many non-hizbullah personnel involved in rescue efforts; some of the people buried in the building actually survived).
The fact that it is being discussed and analysed, though, is a good sign. Shows that some people still believe the truth matters. As an Israeli on the receiving end of Hizbullah's daily madness - that's good to know.

Marisa Tomei, Anjelica Huston
Some notes for those keeping track of the 30-year-old Tomei's development as an actress:
1. Accents aren't a strong point. Playing a party-loving Cuban boat-lifted to Miami in 1980, she sounds uncomfortably close to Charo. "I am like Cooba," proclaims Tomei. "Used by many, conquered by no one!"
2. In rare moments of repose, Tomei's face can be sad, winsome and touching. Maybe someday she will stop being cast as a vivacious cupcake. Meanwhile, the icing is getting stale.
There isn't much else to say about the other refugees from Castro in this little comedy-drama. Huston, who has settled into suburban matronhood while waiting two decades for her husband (Alfred Molina) to be released from prison, seems tentative, recessive, maybe a little dull. She is best when a role provides some edge, some venom, some boldness. This one doesn't. Molina gives the one solid performance. Finally reaching freedom, he scowls accusingly through an unkempt beard and unhappy dark eyes, like a roving religious icon. (R)

Risk Factors & Causes for Dermatopathophobia
The root cause of Phobia Of Skin Diseases is often (but not always) traumatic incident in the past. In some cases, the mind has seemingly, without basis, created the fear. You resolve this issue by discovering the source and trading the negative correlations with positive ones. Persons that find themselves at greatest risk:
• Individuals who are predisposed to feelings of worry and anxiety
• Ones who are characterized as 'high-strung'
• Someone who deals with adrenal insufficiency

We can help you get rid of not just the symptoms, but the cause. This is what CTRN is all about
Medications & Prescribed Drugs

Pills might help you cope with your Phobia Of Skin Diseases but only in the short term – they will not, in reality, help you eliminate it forever.

China's economic growth has been more robust in some regions than others. In a country as large as China, examinations of regional differences can provide a viable way to learn about the economy as a whole. Rongxing Guo provides a systematic introduction to the economies of China by describing their external and internal drivers and by placing them within geopolitical and even socio-cultural boundaries. His pairings of case studies and empirical techniques reveal a rich, deep appreciation of the growth process and of interactions between key factors. This book delves more deeply into issues surrounding the economy than other books, offering a unique and important perspective that many will find useful. Covering history and administrative structures, unique economic features, some domestic economic issues, and international economic engagement, it describes an often inaccessible perspective with nuances all students of China will find valuable
For second courses on the Chinese enconomy. Upper-division undergraduates and graduate students studying international trade, macroeconomics, and development economics.

DeKalb Health Department to offer Seasonal Flu Vaccine Friday
The DeKalb County Health Department will offer seasonal flu vaccine on Friday, September 18th at the DeKalb County Health Department from 9:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m.
Seaonal flu is a preventable illness that can be serious and even deadly. Each year 5 to 20% of the country's population gets seasonal flu. Nationwide, more than 200,000 people are hospitalized each year with complications from seasonal flu and more than 36,000 die from the illness. In Tennessee, an estimated 700 people die from seasonal flu each year.
The DeKalb County Health Department urges seasonal flu vaccinations to prevent illess. The vaccine is particularly recommended for the elderly, young children, and people with certain health conditions such as asthma, diabetes, or heart disease since they are at high risk for complications from seasonal flu.
The cost of the flu shot is $25.00. The Health Department will bill Medicare and other third party payors as appropriate.
The DeKalb County Health Department will also offer H1N1 vaccine when it becomes available. This vaccine is now being manufactured and tested in a manner similar to that of seasonal flu vaccine. The seasonal flu vaccine available now is not effective against the H1N1 virus, and both kinds of flu are expected to circulate this year. The health department therefore strongly encourages everyone to get both types of flu vaccine. The public will be notified immediately when the H1N1 vaccine is available

Has Obama Lost His Pull on Capitol Hill?
When President Barack Obama took office, a large segment of the American population had such unrealistically high expectations for him — he was "the Messiah" who would save us after eight years of Republican misrule and usher in a new era of liberty, equality, and fraternity — that he was bound to disappoint them.
When Preventing Beauty Discrimination Turns Ugly
Shortly after he won the Republican primary for U.S. Senate in Kentucky, Rand Paul was subjected to an all-out media assault for daring to suggest that the Civil Rights Act of 1964, at least to the extent that it interfered with private property rights, might have been an exercise in congressional overreach. How dare he suggest that business owners have the right to discriminate against people on the basis of race? What is he, some kind of racist?
Christian Conservatives Court California Voters
According to the Associated Press, "A group of conservative attorneys say they are on a mission from God to unseat four California judges in a rare challenge that is turning a traditionally snooze-button election into what both sides call a battle for the integrity of U.S. courts."
How Not to Waste a State Budget Crisis
Shortly after the 2008 Presidential election, President-elect Barack Obama's Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, told the Wall Street Journal, "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste." He explained to the WSJ: "Things that we had postponed for too long, that were long-term, are now immediate and must be dealt with. This crisis provides the opportunity for us to do things that you could not do before."
Woody Allen's "Dictatorship," Starring Barack Obama
Perhaps it's his experience as writer, director, and star of several hit movies that has led Woody Allen to prefer one-man operations. That might explain why he told the Spanish newspaper La Vanguardia (as translated by Fox News) that "it would be good…if [President Obama] could be a dictator for a few years because he could do a lot of good things quickly."
Tweaking Social Security Won't Solve Its Problems
According to the Associated Press, "Social Security faces a $5.3 trillion shortfall over the next 75 years." Yes, you read that correctly: FDR's version of Otto von Bismarck's socialist retirement program is projected to add $5.3 trillion to the U.S. national debt over the next 75 years — a 40 percent increase in the debt. (Add the projected $38 trillion unfunded liability of Medicare over the same period, and the debt will more than triple.)
Taxpayers Clipped to Keep Senate Barbershop Afloat
A shave and a haircut will cost you more than two bits just about anywhere, but it'll run you over two Hamiltons at the U.S. Senate barbershop — more than double what barbers in some parts of the country charge. Yet despite these high prices, the shop, which is supposed to be self-sustaining, ended up $300,000 in the hole last year and got its own taxpayer bailout, proving once again that government is incapable of performing even the smallest tasks cheaply and competently.
House Passes Bill to End Automatic Spending Increases
For nearly four decades Congress has ensured that federal spending rises inexorably by guaranteeing that every budget item increases automatically each year. And woe to anyone who seeks merely to reduce these automatic increases, for he shall be labeled a heartless, slash-and-burn budget cutter!
Kucinich Bill Would Tax Away "Unreasonable" Oil Company Profits
Feeling pain at the gas pump? Congressman Dennis Kucinich thinks he has a solution: Tax "unreasonable" oil company profits. The Ohio Democrat has introduced the Gas Price Spike Act, which he claims will "reduce the price of gasoline" by confiscating part or all of an oil company's profits that exceed an amount deemed "reasonable" by a panel of unelected bureaucrats.
Congressmen Can't Send Christmas Greetings, Commission Rules
Congressmen long ago granted themselves the privilege of mailing items to constituents at taxpayers' expense, a process called "franking." Usually such a mailing amounts to a barely disguised plea for reelection, bragging about how much pork the congressman has brought home and listing services he offers to his constituents.

With every successive solid Donovan McNabb performance, it seems less likely that the Eagles will want to change quarterbacks after the season.
Of course, if the Birds miss the playoffs and McNabb throws four bad picks in the game that eliminates them, we might find ourselves right back where we were last month. But let's pretend for a moment that he continues to play well. From what you've seen of McNabb, overall, this season, and from what you've seen of Kevin Kolb, are you really as ready to turn the page as you might have been at halftime of that Baltimore game back on Nov. 23?

There's always a chance that a very low density material with sufficient tensile strength could be developed, or one that's high density, but happens to have a nuclear and electron arrangment that's "just right" to pass x-rays.
However, to date, anything with the requisite strength to act as a firearm, even a disposable zip-gun made out of glue and rolled up magazine paper, is sufficiently radio-opaque to be easily detectable by security x-ray.
Your bones show up well enough on x-ray (albeit security x-ray machines and medical ones use different strengths and detection thresholds) and if you've ever handled human, or more likely, similar animal bones they've got an average density to them that's still less than most of the exotic materials suggested so far.

As my dictionary tells it to me "lucent" does not mean the same thing as "translucent". It means "luminous".
I'm pretty sure I don't want any gun that gives off large amounts of ionizing radiation.
April 27, 2008, 05:44 PM
How about
a Glock 7. You know what that is? It's a porcelain gun made in Germany. It dosen't show up on you airport X-ray machines, and it cost more than you make here in a month.
I hear that next year GLOCK will be releasing one in the 40 watt range...

April 27, 2008, 05:57 PM
Ja, in 10MM.
It may be possible, but I don't think you would want to carry it. I'm sure a 3" thick barrel would contain a 9mm. :)
Don't believe everything you see on TV.
April 27, 2008, 05:59 PM
I'm pretty sure I don't want any gun that gives off large amounts of ionizing radiation.
That may be the trend in future weapons. Think Phaser.
April 27, 2008, 06:24 PM
Allow me to clarify:
I don't want to carry any gun that gives off ionizing radiation in a passive and omnidirectional manner such as would be necessary to render it invisible to x-ray scanning machines.
I do hear that the "crispy tan" look is in this year though.

Skip to comments.Kerry wants Hillary to head 'truth squad'
Posted on 08/23/2004 7:23:59 PM PDT by hope
August 23, 2004 -- JOHN KERRY'S presi dential campaign, which slighted Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton during the Democratic convention last month, now wants the former first lady to lead its "truth squad" at next week's GOP convention, The Post has learned. Party insiders said that aides to Clinton were engaged in "intensive talks" over the weekend with Kerry's representatives about the role she is expected to play.
(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
OK, this has GOT to be a joke.
It is what he did when he came home that counts!
They've only got a week. They'll never get her up to speed on the meaning of "truth" in time! ;-)
I told Mr. Okie today that Hillary! wouldn't know the truth if it whopped her on her broad *ss.
Hillary and truth makes me the Easter Bunny
Isn't this something like putting the fox in the hen house?
Her mission - to seek out truth and squash it!
George Orwell is laughing.
Probably not the best choice, John. Can't you find somebody that is not a partisan hot button?
I guess Kerry expects Hillary to "stand by her man" just as she told 60 minutes she wouldn't.
> OK, this has GOT to be a joke.
From another thread on the same news ...
Yes, he is apparently really that stupid.
He clearly did not catch a clue when the Clintons forced
him to flip-flop on firing McAuliffe in March.
Although the conservative and libertarian landscape is
awash in speculation that the Clintons want Kerry to
lose, Kerry evidently doesn't think it's true, and
keeps adding Clinton toadies to his payroll ... and now
Hillary herself.
Both Limbaugh and Boortz frequently repeat the Clinton
sabotage theory. I guess that discredits it for Kerry.
The theory:
a. Hill want to run for POTUS in 2008, and having a Dem
incumbent screws that up.
b. The Clintons control the DNC, and if a non-Clinton
Dem wins this year, they lose control.
Theories about Hillary pulling a Toricelli on Kerry,
and running in 2004, still float to the surface as well.
I couldn't think of a better candidate, myself. She's the double plus bestest person for the job.
Oceania is at war with Eastasia. Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.
Did I mention 2+2=5?
Hillary? Truth? Ahahahahahaha. That's a real knee-slapper.......
Oh Oh-- here comes the Spanish Inquisition.
Yikes!! That witch is going to be at OUR convention?
I suspect that Kerry will not be getting any additional vote from appointing Hillary as his "Truth Czar".
Stop it!....Im laughing so hard, Im afraid Im going to have a stroke.
Like we're supposed to believe that byline isn't a made-up name....
These Demonuts come up with some wierd sh**t. Probably want Federal Funding.
Welcome to Demo-Bizarro-World.
problem is- she is the best twit they have to truth as moronic at it sounds. james carville, ted kennedy, kkkbyrd??
"Truth" and Hillary in the same sentence! Amazing!
you beat me to the Orwell joke
No matter how hard he tries, he'll never bring Hitlary into his "fold". Throwing her a crumb only pisses her off more.
Click the logo to donate to Swift Boat Veterans for Truth!
She will tell him what he wants to hear (lie^10)
I always thought of Hillary as being a Ministry of Love type. You just erase the history of people in the Ministry of Truth. You get to erase actual people in the Ministry of Love.
Truly bizarre.
Doubly so.. huge mistake..campaign suicide, and as a "bonus" he pisses off Chuckie Schumer..
She'll be busy-- trying to explain how Kerry, in less than four months, became this nation's most decorated soldier ever to serve in the United States Armed Forces.
Putting Hillary in charge of a truth squad is like putting the captain of the Titanic in charge of iceberg squads.
or is it more like putting Hugo Chavez in charge of counting the votes.
Now I've heard it all!
As long as Chuckles can get to the microphone, he'll be OK. :D
Will Bill be a co-head of the Truth Squad; neither knows squat about truth.
Craig Livingstone: Call your office.

And now the dumbocraps have Shillery!
HA! She can't even detect a lie from her Husband (she says).... and he thinks she can detect "truth".... Hell... she's a democrat. 'nuff said.
Guys, guard your a$$es from the hoses, whips and cat-o-9 tails entertainment Hitlery likes to call truth. No wonder Bubba ran.
She calls the Constitution a "living document" subject to being rewritten according to "the changing times".
But absolute (self-evident) truths NEVER change - and the Constitution was only put into place to guard absolute truths.
Relativists don't believe in absolute truth - only "their" truth -- only what they deem to be true for them personally. Our Constitution will always be in danger of being undermined whenever we find them holding political power in America.

The Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum today announced that New Zealand has become the newest member of the international carbon storage body.
Washington, D.C. -- A Department of Energy sponsored project in Hopkins County, Kentucky has begun injecting carbon dioxide (CO2) into a mature oil field to assess the region's CO2 storage capacity and feasibility for enhanced oil recovery.
The State of New Jersey is the newest member of the U.S. Department of Energy's Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership program--the centerpiece of national efforts to validate and deploy carbon sequestration technologies.
The U.S. Department of Energy has issued a Funding Opportunity Announcement soliciting projects to capture and sequester carbon dioxide from industrial sources and to put CO2 to beneficial use.
The U.S. Department of Energy today announced the selection of nine projects that will develop pre-combustion carbon capture technologies that can reduce CO2 emissions in future coal-based integrated gasification combined cycle power plants.
The U.S. Department of Energy has announced the creation of a new National Carbon Capture Center (NCCC) to develop and test technologies to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from coal-based power plants.
The Plains CO2 Reduction Partnership, one of seven members of the U.S. Department of Energy's Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships program, has begun collecting core samples from a new characterization well near Spectra Energy's Fort Nelson natural gas processing plant in British Columbia, Canada.
In a newly awarded project, researchers funded by the U.S. Department of Energy are partnering with European scientists to track injected carbon dioxide in the world's first and longest running carbon storage operation located at the Sleipner gas field in the North Sea.
Washington, DC - The Midwest Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership, one of seven regional partnerships created by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to advance carbon capture and storage technologies, has completed a preliminary geologic characterization and sequestration field test at FirstEnergy's R. E. Burger Plant near Shadyside, Ohio. The project provided significant geologic understanding and "lessons learned" from a region of the Appalachian Basin with few existing deep well penetrations for geologic characterization.
U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu today announced at the National Coal Council that $2.4 billion from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act will be used to expand and accelerate the commercial deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology.

Lawmakers weigh U.S. role against Islamic fighters
WASHINGTON -- Islamic militants' growing influence in Iraq and Syria is a threat to Americans, lawmakers from both political parties agreed Sunday even as they sharply split on what role the United States should play in trying to crush them.
President Barack Obama last week approved limited airstrikes against Islamic State fighters, whose rapid rise in June plunged Iraq into its worst crisis since the end of 2011. Obama said the current military campaign would be a "long-term project" to protect civilians from the deadly and brutal insurgents.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said the militants threaten not just Iraqis but also Americans. He said Obama's strikes were insufficient to turn back the militants.
"I think of an American city in flames because of the terrorists' ability to operate in Syria and in Iraq," said Graham.
"They are coming here," Graham later added about the militants.
"This is just not about Baghdad. This is just not about Syria. It is about our homeland."
Graham added that if Islamic State militants attack the United States because Obama "has no strategy to protect us, he will have committed a blunder for the ages."
