I'm torn now. I am going to Valley Birthplace so far with the hope of a home birth or the birth center, but now the home birth option is gone. I had dd at Montgomery Hospital and really don't want to go back there (DD was seperated from me for hours on end twice and it was just not that pleasant of a stay for me and the pedi would not release dd for almost 36 hours). I'd rather go to St. Mary's(had ds there and the post partum experience was much better) with an open OB or midwife as opposed to taking my chances of being risked out of the birth center. DH isn't really that onboard with just a homebirth midwife. He was open to the idea of HB, but secretly only supported the birth center. A little background: I was risked out of the birth center at 39 weeks with dd last time. Any suggestions would be helpful whether its an open OB/midwife at St. Mary's or other hospital. I'm in Lower Bucks. Thanks
If you are wanting less interventions and an experience with midwives, stay with the Valley Midwives.
Was there something seriously wrong medical wise that they kept her from you?? I just went on my hospital tour at Montgomery, and the nurse was very adament about babies not leaving their moms, except for a bath. There was only 1 baby, who was obviously sick, in the nursery and both parents were there.
Even for a bath they should not be doing that. For one thing, a bath is not in a newborn's best interests. For another, there is no reason a bath could not be performed in the postpartum room. And another, I would not trust them to do it out of my sight-- they can be very brutal sometimes. And often they decide that the bath has chilled the baby too much, and instead of warming baby on mama, they warm him under the lights and observe, leading to even more separation. I would raise a fuss about the bath issue if I were you.

I just went on my hospital tour at Montgomery, and the nurse was very adament about babies not leaving their moms, except for a bath. There was only 1 baby, who was obviously sick, in the nursery and both parents were there.
I had a baby at Montgomery Hospital in November 2010. They didn't give me a hard time with rooming in. However, when they took her for a bath, they were gone for hours, and it was making me antsy. When they wanted to take her for her hearing test, I kept saying that she wasn't going to want to go and that she would cry for me, so don't take her! They did anyway, and half an hour later, they told me that she did indeed cry the entire time for half hour. That was distressing for me. Also, they said to me (more than once) that they could take her so that I could sleep.... it was really annoying.
I had similar experiences like the other posters. DD was born at 3am and by 6 they took her for her bath. I had asked for her to stay with me, but they insisted that the pedi needed to see her in the nursery. I didn't see her again till 11. My family had arrived were waiting around for her to come back. When I called to find out how long it would be, they said they were waiting for the pedi to come and do the rounds. Then the pedi wouldn't release her that same day. The next morning the same thing happened. They took her about 6-7 am and didn't return until 11. Then the pedi stopped by around 12 to chat and we were on our way home by 2pm.
My stay with DS at St. Mary's was much better. He stayed with me 24/7. I only sent (I walked him down and went to get him) him to the nursery so I could get a shower (30 min max). He was my first and I was alone in the hospital my whole stay. The food was better and so were the admentities (tv, walking around the halls, etc).
If I am going to be in a hospital, I would like a nice stay at least. Last time I went a whole 39 weeks thinking I was going to have a great birth center/waterbirth experience just to end up at a hospital. This time I want to be prepared for the hospital experience if that's going to happen. BTW it was a stupid reason that risked me out and I'm positive that some other area midwives would not have batted an eye at.
Ugh. After hearing all of this, I'll be sending the hubby with the baby, so he is never out of either one of our sight. DH is very impatient, and can hopefully push things along, or bring the baby back to me if it's taking too long.
To chr157y, just to be clear, parents *can* refuse a bath (and should in my humble opinion). Nurses will say they then have to wear gloves, to which I say, go ahead. This will greatly reduce separation.
OP, I agree that you're still better w/Valley. Have you talked to the mws about your concerns @ Montgomery? And is the condition you had last time something likely to risk you out of the birth center again, or unlikely to repeat?

XSS Error in Bugzilla Removed
The developers of the free Bugzilla bug management system have fixed several bugs including a vulnerability that enabled cross site scripting attacks.
In the current security advisory for the Bugzilla bug management system the developers report that three vulnerabilities have been closed. One bug let attackers trick users into visiting a rogque website if the user viewed bugs in the "Format for Printing", or extended view. For more information on the cross site scripting vulnerability read security report 425665.
An error in the XML-RPC interface gave arbitrary users the ability to create new bug reports with "NEW" or "ASSIGNED" status. Normally users require "canconfirm" privileges for this. The developers classified the third bug as less critical. It gave users the ability to use fake names. A lack of authentication in the "email_in.pl" module gave users the ability to manipulate the FROM header.
The bugs affected Bugzilla prior to version 3.0.4, 3.1.4, 2.22.4 and 2.20.6. Patches and how-tos on fixing the bugs are available on bugzilla.org/download. You can also download a full release from the same site.

As the 2010 World Cup approaches, the 2006 tournament shouldn't be forgotten.
The last edition of the World Cup saw some truly incredible goals. Here is a list of the best goals last time around.
Can the 2010 World Cup match the 2006 Tournament?
As the 2010 World Cup approaches, the 2006 tournament shouldn't be forgotten.
The last edition of the World Cup saw some truly incredible goals. Here is a list of the best goals last time around.
Can the 2010 World Cup match the 2006 Tournament?
Steven Gerrard scored this goal in the 91st minute of England's group game with Trinidad and Tobago.
He skipped past a defender before scoring from 25 yards with his wrong foot.
Gerrard was England's top scorer in the 2006 World Cup with two goals.
The tournament finished less than happily for Gerrard. His penalty was one of those saved in the quarter final penalty shoot out with Portugal.
Deco's goal against Iran was a brilliant strike.
He got the ball to swerve in just enough to shave the inside of the post.
Deco also started the move with a sweeping pass out to the left wing before the ball was laid back for him to hit.
The opening match of the World Cup was action packed.
This goal from Torsten Frings was sweetly struck—swinging across the face of the goal, and just past the goalkeepers outstretched hand.
Fings's tournament went downhill after this goal, he was suspended for the semi-final after a fight at the end of Germany's game against Argentina.
Rosicky scored two goals in this group match against the USA.
This goal was a 35-yard rocket that curled away from the goalkeeper at the last second to find the corner of the goal.
The Czech Republic didn't make it out of the group stages, but this goal has given them something to remember the tournament by.
Not a bad goal to open a World Cup.
Left back Philipp Lahm isn't a renowned goal scorer. This goal was his second for Germany. Since then he has managed just two more.
Lahm played every minute of Germany's World Campaign, the only German to do so. He was named to the All Star team for the tournament.
In the absence of Michael Ballack, Lahm will lead Germany this month.
Ronaldo is the all-time World Cup high scorer with 15 goals. He is also one of only two players to score three goals at three separate World Cups.
Accused of being overweight and not worthy of a place on the team, Ronaldo proved he still had what it takes with two goals against Japan.
His second goal saw a slick passing build up followed by a strike curled around both a defender, and the goalkeeper.
Joe Cole chested the ball 25 yards out before hitting a sweet volley.
He managed to perfectly lob the Goalkeeper as the ball swerved down into the top corner.
This goal was the highlight of England's tournament, and is the enduring memory for English fans.
At the age of 22, this match was Torres's first World Cup match, and he finished it off with a goal.
Puyol danced through the midfield before playing it off and heading the return pass into Torres's path. Torres finished into the bottom corner to complete a wonderful team goal.
In the next match, Torres took his tournament total to three to finish as Spain's joint top scorer along with David Villa.
Similar to Joe Cole's, an online pole by FIFA selected this goal as goal of the tournament.
Rodriguez controlled a cross field pass with his chest in the 98th minute before hitting a stunning volley that dipped into the goal, beating the diving goalkeeper.
The goal took Argentina into the quarter finals where they lost to Germany.
Rodriguez was involved in the post match fight after this loss, and was banned for two matches.
This goal is just incredible. NINE outfield players touched the ball in the build up to the goal.
There were a total of 26 passes in the build up. Cambiasso capped it off with a decent finish into the roof of the net after a back heel played him through.
This goal is the best as it was a team goal—it wasn't an individual moment of brilliance but one of team brilliance.

Review: 'Homeland' - 'Clean Skin': Let's get a taco
A review of tonight's "Homeland" coming up just as soon as I torpedo your briefing...
"Me? No, I'm never done." -Carrie
Howard Gordon spent a whole lot of time working on "24," a show that allegedly told a single story over a whole season, but that really found ways to cobble together two or three long arcs per year and pretend that they were all part of the same story. "Homeland" doesn't have as many hours to fill, and it can't as easily deviate away from Carrie's obsession with Brody. But the last couple of episodes have done a good job of populating the world with other characters and stories we should be paying attention to, even as the main event is still the unstable analyst versus the cracked Marine.
Not only did we get two episodes of Carrie trying and failing to keep her asset safe, but the episode's end suggests that Nazir may have an entirely different plan afoot than something involving Brody - or else that the plan is significantly more complicated than just putting Brody in position to martyr himself in a very public, deadly fashion. Those scenes were all appropriately tense, even as it became abundantly clear that Lynne wasn't going to survive the hour - all those mentions of her non-existent security detail, and Carrie's concern about her lack of protection were like Chekhov's Absence of Gun - and now we've ended two out of three episodes with potential terrorists ominously looking at potential targets (first Brody with the Capitol, then the new homeowners studying the flightpath above their house).
Still, Brody and Carrie are the drawing cards, and both Damian Lewis had some great, squirm-inducing material to play this week.
Regardless of what we believe about Brody's loyalties, it's not hard to see that Jessica is in an awful situation. She had made peace with his presumed death, understandably moved on to another guy, and then Brody parachutes back into her life, the same and yet not. She's been doing all the parenting for eight years, and suddenly he gets to be the hero with Dana and share jokes and laugh about a "video called YouTube" with her. And that's not even factoring in the bedroom. In the pilot, there was that ugly, violent sex scene. Last week, Brody attacked her in mid-nightmare. And tonight, after giving it yet another try, Jessica was rewarded by being the mortifying subject of an in-person stroke fantasy.(*) There are pay cable shows that insert sex scenes just for the prurient value, and/or because it's expected, but "Homeland" is using these kinds of scenes to really illuminate character, showing the dark place Brody is and making Jessica more sympathetic in the process. (Some fine work by Morena Baccarin throughout this episode, in fact.)
(*) Note how Carrie keeps trying to look away from this stuff, but is drawn back, in part because Brody's sex life is one of the rare times where he's completely unguarded and she gets to see who and what he's become. But I also liked the conversation between Carrie and Virgil about Jessica and Mike's conversation. Virgil thinks it's important, but Carrie compares it to watching a reality show - which is what this whole thing is, but with vastly higher stakes. Brody's sex life matters to her; Jessica's doesn't unless it involves Brody.
Carrie has to split her attention between Brody and Lynne, and also deal with ongoing emotional fallout from Saul over her decision to set up the Brody surveillance without telling him first. (And Mandy Patinkin was predictably great in the scene where Saul tells her off.) But Brody's not giving her anything in the moment - and she gets a 50-ton weight of guilt dropped on her when Lynne is made and murdered.
This is a messy business they're in, and we're only 3 hours into the season. Can't wait to see what happens next.
What did everybody else think? How do you think Lawrence O'Donnell did playing himself?
Homeland, Claire Danes, Damian Lewis, Mandy Patinkin, Morena Baccarin, Alan Sepinwall
KAG (guest)You talk of asset Lynne having been "made", but she wasn't really. No, it appears that she was just the collateral damage of the theft of the necklace by the major domo, who seems to have financed the aforementioned ominous flight path house purchase...October 17, 2011 at 12:35AM ESTReply to Comment
Jared (guest)Except Lynn wasn't necessarily "made". In fact she probably was not. She was simply killed so that Farid's assistant would steal the necklace.October 17, 2011 at 12:35AM ESTReply to Comment
Johh WI agree. I think the assistant saw an opportunity and took it.October 17, 2011 at 10:12AM EST
Jack GrantI think Lynne was definitely made by the prince, i think it was made clear from the conversation Carrie and Saul had querying how the prince was transferring the money, then his assistant selling the Necklace, then the ominous couple buying the house by the airport that the prince was in murdering her and stealing the necklace was killing two birds with one stone. He get a large amount of cash that cannot be traced back to him (at least via financial records) and he was removing the spy in his circle.October 17, 2011 at 12:48PM EST
Paper@Jacxk Grant - While it is possible the prince is actually in on al of it and putting on a show, at the moment what we have seen lines up all the other way, which is what the conversation between Carrie and Saul actually makes clear. The assistant is acting on his own, killing her for the necklace. It is possible the assistant caught wind of something, and actually made Lynn as well as wanting the necklace, but that is never referenced and in such a case he wouldn't have relayed that information to the prince, as that also would be revealing his own subterfuge.October 17, 2011 at 7:49PM EST
CharlesI must admit I was convinced the necklace concealed a listening device, especially when they showed her on the phone to Carrie while wearing it. If you're suspicious about someone you want to find out exactly what they know and who they're working for before you whack them (this coming from my great expertise gained by watching lots of spy movies). But ... no sign of that.
I agree though that this might well have been a ploy hatched by the prince himself. The gift was clearly unusual and, unlike Carrie, I was totally unconvinced by his little acting session in the interview.October 17, 2011 at 10:01PM EST
AdamWhen the prince comes back into the bedroom, after Lynne spied on his blackberry, it's likely he already had the necklace in hand and had decided to give it to her. If the necklace was intended to be stolen as a means to transfer money the prince would have decided to give it to her before she tried to steal info from his phone.
So either her stealing has no connection to her killing, and therefore she wasn't 'made' or she was made before that incident and the audience wasn't informed.
Jessica believed that the prince was genuinely upset in his interview. So the implication is his aide is playing a much deeper game, and the prince was unaware of Lynne duplicity and her upcoming murder.
Just my 2 cents.October 17, 2011 at 11:25PM EST
CPETEThe prince isn't in on it. His assitant is acting independent of him. The assistant has been suspicious of Lynne in EVERY scene they have been in together. He may not have made her for working with the CIA, but he knew she was up to something. He also would have been the one to procure the necklace for the prince....and thus would know the prince was going to give it Lynne as a gift....he solves 2 problems with one swoop, finances his terrorist cell and gets rid of a mole.
That's my take on it.October 18, 2011 at 1:09PM EST
KiranNot saying anybody else is wrong, but I never even considered any interpretation of events aside from Jack Grant's until I checked out this article. It seemed abundantly clear even before they intercut Carrie asking "HOW DID THEY MAKE THE TRANSFER" with the assistant selling the necklace.October 19, 2011 at 12:28AM EST
natxI thought the big reveal was that nazir wasnt actually there to see the prince...but to see someone "with less means"...which im assuming is the assistant. Which means the prince is not in on it.
I dont think she got made...or actually it doesnt matter if she was or wasnt. They wanted the necklace for the cash, and they had to kill her to make it look like a theft. S that means she would have died either way.October 19, 2011 at 12:02PM EST
Eric (guest)I've been impressed with not just Claire Danes but also with Brody's wife (Morena Baccarin) and daughter (Morgan Saylor), the latter of whom should not be overlooked.October 17, 2011 at 1:15AM ESTReply to Comment
CPETEI know the daughter is doing a great job because most of the time I just wish the Mom would smack her, lol.
That said after the first 2 episodes of her being a typical annoying sour-faced grating teenager type. I am glad that they gave her a completely plausible and understandable reason being that way with her Mom (i.e. banging "Uncle" Mike).October 18, 2011 at 1:12PM EST
Jim (guest)I agree with others that there seems to be no real evidence she was made. She was just treated as a throw-away. And the last shot suggests that the money was used by a previously unseen middle eastern guy to buy a house under a busy air corridor. Study air patterns? Take a shot at a plane with a surface-to-air missile?October 17, 2011 at 1:25AM ESTReply to Comment
rosengjeThis is an exceptional show that's haunted me in the same way that "The Lives of Others" did back in 2006.
I never watched "Life," so I've been continually shocked by just how powerful a screen Damian Lewis is. The shot after his initial walking interview, when he looks back and forth and then is just still conveyed so much through movement and silence. I hope to see more scenes of him bouncing off Claire Danes' nervous intensity.October 17, 2011 at 1:56AM ESTReply to Comment
Sofia Vergara MILF-O-Meteryou really should check out "life." one of my [many] series-cut-too-short favorites. you can check out eps on hulu:
actually, the similarities between sgt. nick brody det. charlie crews are pretty striking. lewis is great as both characters.October 17, 2011 at 1:45PM EST
SquellmannAnd the women in Life are incredible. Sarah Shahi is the co-star. Christina Hendricks has a recurring role. A good show for many reasons.October 17, 2011 at 2:17PM EST
Stephen StarrRegarding the previous 2 comments- yes, you really should check out Damian lewis on "Life" it is the best show that networks put on in the last 5 years until the network screwed around with everything- when it was on; do we do the conspiracy or don't we, etc. Regardless, he was fantastic in it.October 17, 2011 at 3:09PM EST
TammySometimes when watching this series, I just want Brody to peel an orange, you know?October 17, 2011 at 4:43PM EST
GarySFThere are lots of similarities. Both Brody and his character in Life are culturally illiterate due to spending many years in captivity -- hostage, or prison inmate. A video called YouTube...love it!October 17, 2011 at 9:51PM EST
joelIf you're interested in seeing Damien Lewis play an off-kilter character, see the 2004 movie Keane and then watch the alternate version edited by Steven Soderbergh, which will really mess with your head.
But what people, no mention of Band of Brothers? I still can't believe Capt Winters was turned by Al Qaeda.
Damien Lewis really should be working more often.October 18, 2011 at 2:01AM EST
M.A.PeelLewis is also beyond riveting in the 2003 remake of The Forsyte Sags, as Soames Forstye. Nice interview with him here, about playing a "complicated, conflicted character." http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/forsyte/ei_lewis.htmlOctober 18, 2011 at 2:32PM EST
Lara LamourI've been casually re-watching the episode as it has repeated tonight. I took care to pay particular attention to Carrie and Saul's recap of Lynne's murder. I actually think she was made. During the flashback of Lynne taking a picture of the prince and the terrorist suspect(?), the shaved head assistant appears to briefly peer through the cracked door(around 0:47 min). The same assistant who sets Lynne up, has the necklace stolen, and is later seen 'fencing' it(0:48-49min). So, it appears she may have been both 'made' and collateral damage. To go further with my conjecture, I don't believe that Prince Amir was involved with her death or the terrorists in question; sad. I would like to see Carrie find away to avenge her sacrifice. Good show so far. Any thoughts or comments are welcome.October 17, 2011 at 4:38AM ESTReply to Comment
J (guest)Um, what's with the gratuitous shot at 24? That was a great show that was what it was: the best action show of all time and probably the most addictive show of all time. Sure, it had one disastrous season (the sixth) and a disappointing one (the eighth), but it was still great. Was it as deep as The Sopranos or The Wire or Breaking Bad? Well, no, but it wasn't really supposed to be (though it was a lot more intelligent than it was given credit for). It excelled at what it was supposed to do. At any rate, I don't understand your criticism. You're acting like it having multiple long story arcs that theoretically could be unrelated as part of the same season is something that other great shows don't do. I mean, let's take a look at Season 3 of Breaking Bad, which is just fantastic. The first part of the season is clearly about The Cousins and their pursuit of Walt, while the second part is clearly about Jesse finding out the truth of who was behind Combo's death and all the ramifications of that. Those are two long story arcs. They're part of the same story too, but you can make a pretty clear distinction. I don't recall you complaining about that. 24 had clear divisions in its arcs too, but I don't understand why that's necessarily a bad thing. It's not like the plots were COMPLETELY unrelated. Besides, it wasn't a 13-episode show. It had to do 24 episodes each season, so I'm much less bothered by this "flaw." And I don't remember the writers ever saying that there wouldn't be multiple story arcs over the course of a season. You apparently didn't like 24. We get it. This is one of your dumbest criticisms that I've seen. Get over yourself, Alan.October 17, 2011 at 4:51AM ESTReply to Comment
sepinwallRelax. It wasn't an attack on 24 - just an illustration of the challenge Gordon and company had filling out 24 episodes worth of plot. I don't begrudge them for usually cheating the one season=one story thing.October 17, 2011 at 7:09AM EST
joelAnd don't compare 24 to The Wire. Jeebus, they're not even in the same genre of TV, let alone the same universe.October 18, 2011 at 2:04AM EST
TeklanikaI thought 24 was pretty over the top. I didn't even like season 1. The 24 hour gimmick sounded like a good idea, but I found it to be far to long and simply led to "hey, we have 24 hours to fill, we need to add a few more twists to fill the time." By the end of the first season I wanted the wife and daughter to just go away. Wasn't their fault, they just had to keep doing stupid things to drive the plot. Most overrated show in history IMO.October 18, 2011 at 10:08AM EST
Lara LamourAlso,I agree great work by Morena Baccarin. As a sci-fi fan, I am familiar with her work. I would have liked to see the 'V' reboot continue, but am glad she is part of Homeland.October 17, 2011 at 5:11AM ESTReply to Comment
Jorge (guest)Was that Vicki the bossy cheerleader from Freaks and Geeks as Lynne?October 17, 2011 at 5:15AM ESTReply to Comment
sepinwallNo. Vicki grew up to be JoAnna Garcia.October 17, 2011 at 7:10AM EST
Noah BodyLynne was Brianna Brown, who most recently was playing a great insane doctor on General Hospital. But she's also been great on Homeland.October 17, 2011 at 5:35PM EST
BrandonAccording to IMDB, she did play a cheerleader in F&G and was also in a couple other Apatow movies!October 17, 2011 at 8:51PM EST
sepinwallYeah, she's the cheerleader in the very first scene of the pilot, and looked enough like Garcia that when I rewatched the series years later, I assumed that was Vicki until other people told me it wasn't.October 18, 2011 at 10:13AM EST
Jill (guest)I definitely think Lynne was "made," but it was definitely not by the prince, who I believe had nothing to do with her death/stealing the necklace. His grief was totally genuine, so I believe she was found out by Farid's assistant, etc., which explains the prince's grief, plus her suspicious in the change in protocol/behavior.
The show will definitely get more intriguing and interesting, especially when Carrie and Brody come into contact again. I'm really liking it, and Danes and Lewis are hitting every note/subtlety brilliantly.October 17, 2011 at 10:56AM ESTReply to Comment
SquellmannI'm in the evil assistant camp right now, too. Lynne told Carrie that the Prince was such a great guy, and that could mean poor Lynne didn't know what was going on, or it could mean that someone else associated with the prince is the bad guy.
There have been some comments about the necklace being stolen; if you're the kind of guy who gives women hella-expensive jewelry and also the kind of guy who now and then will "dispose of" those women, you're not leaving the jewelry there to get taken by a bum. You take it with you. So whether the prince was behind this or the evil assistant did it on his own, either way, they take the necklace.October 17, 2011 at 2:29PM EST
CPETEI forgot about Lynne explaining how great a guy the prince was, and that all he wanted to do was party and bang hot chicks.
That give mes even more evidence that the assistant was acting independently.....and further more he probably hates the prince for living the way he does and is gleefully using his wealth abd connections to finance and further some kind of jihad without the prince's knowledge.October 18, 2011 at 1:17PM EST
SteveIf she was "made" then it wouldn't make sense to go through with fencing the necklace. The CIA's next move is to find out who they fenced it to, then pressure that person to give up the evil assistant. It's too close to the Prince that way. Also, the necklace was already in play before she downloaded the info, so the only chance to get made was when she took the photo.
The plot is more straight forward if she was a pawn from the beginning and was just being used to finance the house.October 18, 2011 at 10:07PM EST
Jeremy420loweI don't care whether she was made, or just a pawn, because the twists this shows keeps throwing at me jut make me want to watch the next episode without over thinking it.

RemyHe has a great show. It's very smart. But regarding him playing himself--I think he does better in the fictional realm such as his stint on Big Love.October 19, 2011 at 2:22AM EST
Greg Grant (guest)One nit-pick about Lynne for me was just how easily her name was dropped around by the CIA.
First, the briefing with the team, where the head of the team goes out of his way to not only say how the video was shot, but also by whom, and follows it up by showing her picture and saying her real name. Wait, what? I get it's inside the CIA and these guys are trusted team members, but as a child of Cold War, I thought it was insane. Lynne is supposedly the only one who got video evidence that the terrorist mastermind unseen for seven/eight/whatever years is even alive. She might not be gold, but she's at least a bronze in terms of asset worth. She's almost an undercover agent. Yet, her real name is just thrown out there? Then a picture? Shouldn't it have been some silly code-name?
Then, and this part really bugged me for some strange OCD reason, Saul leaves the meeting and Carrie chases after him, and once again name drops the real name of her asset in the middle of the freaking hallway? Right, right. It's the CIA building. They're safe. I get it. But, seriously, you're just saying "Lynne" in the middle of a busy hallway? Could be just my nitpicky OCD thing, but that really annoyed me. That's how you treat an asset?
Other than that, the episode was good. Loved the scene by the fence with the locks, where Sgt. Brody almost knows that his wife cheated on him, but does not want to say it out loud because he wants to preserve things the way they are, and his daughter completely gets it.October 17, 2011 at 7:50PM ESTReply to Comment
LauraincaboI was taken aback by the name dropping also.October 18, 2011 at 4:39AM EST
SlamThe writers have the characters spell everything out over and over on TV shows to keep the viewer informed ... of course that would never happen in "real life " ... it would be a bunch of furtive glances and people staring at their smart phones...it's a TV show, right ?October 21, 2011 at 4:56PM EST
Tom (guest)How long before we can promote Homeland into the podcast closer spot? My wife and I are both hooked and could certainly stand 5 mins every week.October 17, 2011 at 8:34PM ESTReply to Comment
sojournerMy only problem with the whole "Lynn was made AND expediently killed" theory is that it relies on staggering coincidence. Lynn's reaction to the necklace made it clear this wasn't a regular event, so the chances that the Prince suddenly decides to give an amazingly expensive necklace to the mole in the camp at exactly the right time for the aide to kill two birds with one stone sounds fishy. I mean, I guess the aide could have suggested the gift, but I'd have like to have some indication of that. Otherwise, I'm going with Lynn was just collateral damage - whichever girl got the necklace would have suffered the same fate.October 17, 2011 at 8:47PM ESTReply to Comment
KS (guest)The writing for this show has been superb. We're only three episodes in and it feels like we've already got a strong understanding of these characters, even the ones who don't get a lot of screen time like the son , daughter, and Carrie's surveillance partner.
I particularly enjoyed the editing they did to transition the scene with Carrie in the morgue with Lynne's parents and the voiceover transition of her telling Saul what she really wanted to say to them. Although it would haven been audience-pleasing to tell the parents she was a patriot, they didnt betray the intelligence of the character.
None of Carrie's higher-ups appear to be over-the-top bureaucrats with ulterior motives, which can be a pretty common trope in these types of thrillers. That's been pretty refreshing as well.October 17, 2011 at 9:03PM ESTReply to Comment
JerronLove, love, this show. Is there something about Claire Danes that makes her amazing on tv but so-so in movies?
I am pretty sure that the Prince had no ideal about what was happening and he may have cared for her. Seems like there are things going on in his inner circle that he is unaware (of). He could possibly turn into an ally for the CIA.
I also liked that Nick had some ideal that his wife had moved on and was at peace with the fact that she took care of her "needs." But that had to be one of the most saddest sex scenes that didn't involve a rape that I have seen in a long time.
I think the parallel between Nick and Carrie is outstanding. Both are totally detached from having real relationships. But you see Nick trying to bond with his daughter, but Carrie makes no real attempts at having bonds. I don't know how much of this they are going to play up but Nick is her only lifeline at this point. Her relationship with her sister only exists because she needs a dealer. She doesn't even eat.
Totally off topic but does anyone else wants Morena to go back to her Anna haircut? I keep seeing her and thinking what would Anna do?October 17, 2011 at 9:16PM ESTReply to Comment
TeprocKind of reminded me of the infamous "brithday gift" scene in the pilot of Breaking Bad. They're different, but they both show how screwed up the relationship between these characters is (although this one was much more dramatic, the scene in Breaking Bad was more dark comedy).October 19, 2011 at 8:37AM EST
GarySFI think Jessica may qualify as worst TV wife of the year. I get that her life has been uprooted and she's seeking an intimacy that may not come anytime soon, but she looked repulsed when Brody just wanted to get his rocks off. Come on, the guy's been through hell, give him a break! I also find the actress to be almost unwatchable. I stated after the pilot that she doesn't seem good enough for any character played by Damien Lewis, let alone a Marine.October 17, 2011 at 9:58PM ESTReply to Comment
LauraincaboGee, Gary, do the women in your life find that unrepulsive. No women I know. You might consider yourself in the minority if you didn't find it repulsive.October 18, 2011 at 4:42AM EST
BobmanLook, LaurainCabo, not to get into a whole sex shame debate, but repulsive is REALLY a strong word. Someone who hasn't had normal human contact for eight years is going to take a LONG time to readjust to normal social interactions, including and maybe especially sexual ones. No one can blame the wife for being a bit put off, but if you're repulsed by the idea that your husband touches himself, and are unwilling to help him ease back into normal culture after 8 years of torture, maybe heterosexuality, or humanity even, isn't for you.October 18, 2011 at 12:33PM EST
sepinwallOkay, that is enough of that. Rule #1 around here, folks, as always: TALK ABOUT THE SHOW, NOT EACH OTHER. If you can't analyze that sex scene without somehow passing judgment on those who disagree with you, DO NOT COMMENT.October 18, 2011 at 12:47PM EST
SunI found Brody's behavior unwatchable because it was so sad. He is broken. Jessica seemed appalled - not because she found Brody repulsive, but because she was shocked and surprised. Perhaps she had not really understood how broken he was until then.
The point is not that she thinks his (or any) masturbation is repulsive, but that his masturbation was a sign of how broken he is.
The scene made me cringe: both Carrie and I could look away, but Jessica was trapped.October 18, 2011 at 1:35PM EST
natxRegardless of what you think of "getting your rocks off" in front of someone... Her reaction was totally understandable because she was trying to connect with him intimately and he basically treats her like an object to pleasure himself to, Its not like she stops him or says anything. Do you expect her to be turned on by it or something?October 19, 2011 at 12:12PM EST
virginia (guest)The bedroom scene was so sad. The handwashing, sleeping on the floor, pretending not to hear, not being able to really connect with her. Almost as though he now found her unclean. Really really sad. It amazes me that actors have the courage to portray such scenes. Claire Dane's reaction shots were really well delivered. Lawrence O'Donnell took me right back to The West Wing. He was pretty great as Bartlett's cruel, insecure, controlling father.October 17, 2011 at 10:48PM ESTReply to Comment

Fred (guest)I will probably watch until the end of season 1 regardless, but are we supposed to believe that there wouldn't be any kind of psychological support for the family and especially Brody after what he went through. If, sadly, this is how U.S. Soldiers are treated when they come back from these kinds of experience, this is very sad.October 18, 2011 at 2:55PM ESTReply to Comment
Omar (guest)How come nobody has made the Carrie Mathison / Jimmy McNulty comparison yet?
Both are self destructive and destructive to those close to them ("You're no good for people, Jimmy" -Bunk), both have substance abuse issues, prone to one night stands.
Both have great instincts at their jobs , probably better than anyone, and care about the job more than anything else, more than any personal connections/relationships, both undermine their superiors when they are onto something, care more about their cases/informants than even their own career paths, i could go on...
Carrie is almost the female, federal agent version of McNulty.October 18, 2011 at 3:36PM ESTReply to Comment
Greg GrantTo get the full McNulty, "Homeland" need a scene where Carrie and the ex-CIA agent who hooked up surveillance examine the alley where Lynne got shot and re-create the sequence of her shooting while saying nothing but f**k and motherf**ker as confused Glasses Guy looks on.October 18, 2011 at 8:49PM EST

Claire Danes is so great as Carrie; angry, confused, frustrated, losing her grip at any moment. Such a riveting characterOctober 21, 2011 at 5:07PM EST
Dan Goldring (guest)I hope the show gives us the chance to see Carrie do something extraordinary in her work, and soon. It is indeed interesting to watch the mess that she is, but an organization could only put up with that mess (Saul for sure, but even Estes, her immediate boss) for an extraordinary talent. So far, we haven't seen it. She seems competent at work, and there are hints that she has been special in the past, but showing up late, throwing tantrums, ordering people around -- that stuff only works if her work itself is worth it, and so far we haven't actually seen that.October 19, 2011 at 11:01AM ESTReply to CommentLike (1)Latest Likes:1 Anonymous
Budo (guest)Aside from the horrendous opening titles, I really only have one issue with the entire show so far - why on Earth did they get David Harewood to play Deputy Director of the CIA? I've really loved him in British shows, but his American accent is just not good enough for the amount of lines his character has. He's no Laurie, Elba or West, and I find it very distracting.October 19, 2011 at 11:32PM ESTReply to Comment
shortstopkSooo, I'll be the one to tackle this I guess.
Brody just does his business and lays down? No towel, nothing?
Also it occurred to me that Obama is in the title sequence, but Jamey Sheridan played the vice pres last week, who I assume/hope wasn't supposed to be Biden. Small thing, but a little confusing wrt to how authentic this world is supposed to be.October 20, 2011 at 1:59AM ESTReply to Comment
AndcapSo, my parents were in town watching this with me and my husband. When the wife got up in the morning, and they panned over the floor, my mom and I both said "ew" at the same time. It may have been a shadow, but it sure looked like he left certain bodily fluids on the floor and pillow.October 24, 2011 at 3:02PM EST
Alex Yang (guest)hey does anyone know the soundtrack fro this episode?July 8, 2012 at 6:08PM ESTReply to Comment
stooge9Sorry I'm almost a year and 9 episodes too late, but having just watched the first three and reading the last few recaps, thought I'd jump in anyway. I was struck by the comparisons of the main characters, as Alan mentioned in last week's recap, but the I was struck by the comparison of Saul and his treatment of his Carrie and the terrorist to Brody. They both use(d) psychological tactics to ensure tight bonding and need (act of kindness after scorn). Though he hasn't been in it so much yet, I am captivated by Saul as much as the two mains!
I realize that this is probably well established by the end of the season, but I'm not there yet and just wanted to throw this out there. Excellent show so far.September 6, 2012 at 2:13AM ESTReply to Comment
AngelaHeh, I'm a few weeks behind you. I had to start reading the recaps after watching the first 3 episodes. What an amazing show!
I didn't think about Saul's treatment of Carrie and Brody being similar. Now I'm going to be looking for it. I also think there's much more going on with Saul than we know about so far.
Hurry up Netflix, I'm craving next DVD in the series. If I had known that Showtime was running an all day Homeland marathon yesterday of Season 1 *before* it aired I would have bought the Showtime subscription. Did you catch it?September 30, 2012 at 7:48PM EST

Historical Fiction
Our most popular practitioner of the art speaks of the challenges and rewards of writing
April/may 1982 | Volume 33, Issue 3
Georg Brandes, Denmark's leading literary critic, had a low opinion of historical novels. To read one, he said, "was like drinking real substitute coffee." He was referring, of course, to the standard historical romance featuring real figures of importance intermingled with heroic imaginary ones. The classic example would be Alexander Dumas' The Three Musketeers , an exceptionally interesting work; shoddy examples have proliferated in all times.
Many other critics have lambasted the historical epic, and with cause. It is often a mishmash of bad history filled with unjustified extrapolations and preposterous statements placed in the mouths of real-life historical protagonists. Also, the romantic interludes are apt to be ponderous and pallid when compared with the best novels emphasizing human relations.
Such criticism relates to style and may be disregarded if one's personal taste accepts such distortions. I applaud Les Miserables and War and Peace but find Justin McCarthy's novel about Louis XI and François Villon, If I Were King , quite unacceptable. Each reader will determine his own level of tolerance, and apparently a good many are able to accept anything, judging from some of the novels that succeed.
There is, however, a legitimate philosophical objection to even the most acceptable historical novel, one which has driven me to serious speculation. Because I am a well-known liberal, William F. Buckley's very conservative journal, some years ago, felt called upon to dismiss all I had written as. fraudulent. The reviewer, not Buckley, called me outright "a liar" in that my bias distorted everything I wrote or said. He claimed that my basic approach to any narrative distorted it from the beginning, making it invalid.
There's a good deal of truth in this accusation, whether the historical writer in question is Howard Fast on the left or Kenneth Roberts on the right. If the former writes a wildly exciting novel about gladiators, you do not expect him to come down on the side of the Caesars, and if the latter writes Oliver Wiswell , extolling the Loyalist version of the American Revolution, you know he is doing so to correct what he deems an imbalance in our history books.
I certainly write from a given set of preconceptions, and if I were to attempt a novel on the coal regions of my home state of Pennsylvania, I would certainly not choose as my heroes the coal-fields police in the pay of the big companies. When I did write about a handful of Jews defying the entire might of the Roman Empire in The Source , I found it easy and psychologically correct to depict them as heroic, and I doubt that I did fact any violence in doing so.
The typical historical novelist is a fairly honest researcher. He or she knows what the facts are and ignores or abuses them at his or her peril. Before the Polish writer Henryk Sienkiewicz, who would win a Nobel Prize for his historical narratives covering the early days of Christianity ( Quo Vadis ) or the beginnings of Polish nationalism ( The Teutonic Knights ), started any writing project, he did so much research in historical documents that he exceeded the knowledge of the average professor in those fields.
The same applies, I believe, to the three current masters of this form. They have been incredibly learned in their radically different fields, and if they write with a high degree of selection, choosing those episodes and interpretations that best support their preconceptions, they do so from a background of fact and understanding that is Herculean. Marguerite Yourcenar's Memoirs of Hadrian is probably as fine a historical novel as can be written. Mary Renault's re-creations of ancient Greece are superb, while Zoe Oldenbourg's novels of medieval Europe are prototypes of accurate reporting.
When young would-be writers tell me they might like to work in the historical field, I direct them to the works of these three women with the warning: "If you aren't convinced that you can do better than these three, we really don't need you. To succeed, you must do something different and do it better."
If a young writer can approach history with a fresh eye and a new talent, he or she can make a resounding contribution, for there is a persistent need for the writer who can elucidate the history of a land, an area, or a people. I can testify to this because for the past ten years I have received almost every week some heartfelt plea that I move to the writer's part of the world and write about it in such a way that the rest of the world will appreciate its significance.

Picked up Sleeping Dogs over the Steam sale. I've got a GTX 570 and it looks like I can run everything on high except theAA setting and stay above 45fps. On normal, the in-game the FXAA coverage is a bit weak. It's a shame that FXAA can't be increased to high without also turning on performance killing MSAA.
Has anyone had any luck with an AA injector or using control panel AA settings? I typically use the SMAA injector for games without native AA, but I've never tried it on a game that already had built-in shader based AA, I'm not sure if it will work, plus I don't want to blur up the game too much.

A Theoretical Approach to the Problem of Yarn Strength13(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1714849View Description Hide Description
An idealized yarn composed of fibers with specified properties is treated analytically with the aim of determining the yarn strength at any degree of twist. The results are presented in the form of equations and curves which relate the yarn strength to the fiber properties and the degree of twist. Two cases are studied: (1) All fibers alike; (2) fiber properties variable from fiber to fiber. In the latter case the mathematical expectation of the yarn strength at any yarn cross section is obtained. It is found that the optimum twist multiplier is largely determined by the fiber length, fiber fineness, and coefficient of friction, whereas the maximum yarn strength (corresponding to the optimum twist multiplier) is more strongly dependent upon the intrinsic fiber strength than upon the other fiber properties studied.
An Extension of Saint‐Venant's Principle, with Applications13(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1714850View Description Hide Description
Simple energy considerations, which have previously been employed to provide a rational basis for the principle of Saint‐Venant, are shown to lead to the conclusion that forces applied in the neighborhood of a rigidly fixed portion of an elastic solid can cause only local stress and strain. This principle indicates useful features of certain problems encountered in engineering, and is used here in the calculation of the stiffness of a thin layer of elastic material confined between rigid plates, under any kind of load applied to the plates.
The Phase of Arcback13(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1714851View Description Hide Description
Thyratrons of FG‐41 type were tested at over‐voltage for arcback in a circuit which simulates operating conditions very closely. Memory oscillograms showed the time in the cycle at which the arcbacks occurred. At a mercury‐control temperature of 45°C, the distribution was nearly random, with a maximum at the time of highest negative anode voltage, and depending on voltage in the same manner as the average arcback rate, taken over a long period. When the mercury‐control temperature was raised to 64°C, all the arcbacks occurred at the beginning of negative voltage application. These results are interpreted on the theory recently advanced by Kingdon and Lawton, which attributes arcback to charging up of small non‐conducting particles on the surface of the anode. At low vapor pressure, where the ions remaining from the discharge have time to diffuse to the electrodes before negative voltage is applied, the charging is produced by processes such as glow discharge and field emission, which depend on voltage; hence arcback is correlated with voltage. At higher pressure,diffusion is interfered with by molecular collision, so that ions are present when negative voltage is applied. In this condition arcback occurs at the beginning of the negative cycle.
The Depth Dependence of Earth Conductivity Upon Surface Potential Data13(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1714852View Description Hide Description
The problem of determining electrical earth conductivity from the surface, in the case where it is a function of the depth only, is solved by a perturbation method, which formally at least, allows the unperturbed functions to be perfectly arbitrary. Numerical work, however, is restricted to those functions which are available as solutions of the so‐called ``inverse'' problem, a group of which is given. Of this group the case in which the unperturbed conductivity varies exponentially is treated in detail and two examples showing the success of the method are presented. A numerical method of solving integral equations of the Laplace type, which occur in the above, is also submitted.
Large Scale Extraction of Polonium from Active Lead and Formation of Radioactive Electrode Alloys13(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1714854View Description Hide Description
Various possible sources of Po for industrial use are discussed and reasons for selection of active lead salts for this purpose are given. Methods of measurement of the amounts of Po present on plated metal foils and in electrode alloy are described. The RaD/Pb ratio was found to vary from 1.2×10−8 to 1.9×10−8 for various samples of active lead from the Great Bear Lake region. Methods for extraction of Po from active lead salts are discussed and a large scale plating method is described. Results of experiments on the rate of Po‐plating from boiling solutions of active lead salts as related to the acid concentration, exposed foil area, foil composition, etc., are presented. Chemical methods for producing soluble active lead salts are described.
A method of introducing Po into electrode alloy is described. In a typical experiment, it was found that 94 percent of the Po introduced into the melt was retained in the final alloy. Contact radiographs of electrode alloy samples showing the affect of various heat treatments and surface condition are presented.
Streamering in Negative Corona13(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1714855View Description Hide Description
Corona from sharp points in air can be divided into two ranges, a diffuse range and a streamering range, this division being applicable for each polarity of discharge although the details are different for the two polarities.
On Relaxation Effects in Amorphous Media13(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1714856View Description Hide Description
The Maxwellrelaxationtheory leading to the concept of a viscous‐elastic body is briefly stated. Extensions to systems built up from several such viscous‐elastic components with different relaxation times are discussed. In the case of high molecular weight materials, it is more appropriate to assume a continuous distribution of relaxation rates. Equations are formulated whose solution gives the distribution function in terms of the rate of deformation and of the applied stress or the elongation in terms of the two other quantities. The connection with the corresponding distribution of dielectric relaxation times, molecular inhomogeneity and chain branching, and effects at mechanical frequencies large compared with the relaxation rates, are pointed out.

Petcor Flea Spray
Active Ingredients: -0.27%, Pyrethrins -0.20%, Piperonyl butoxide - 0.37%, N-octyl bicyloheptene - 0.62%
Petcor Flea Spray with Precor IGR kills fleas, ticks, lice, & mosquitoes on pets with it's natural pyrethrins . Petcor Flea Spray may be used on dogs, cats, puppies and kittens. This flea spray keeps flea eggs from hatching for up to 63 days. Petcor Flea Spray may be reapplied weekly.Used by Vets, dog breeders, groomers, etc. Petcor Flea Spray comes in a 16 oz. pump and has a light alcohol base.
- Contains natural pyrethrins to immediately kill adult fleas.
- Precor IGR, an Insect Growth Regulator that kills flea eggs for 63 days after application.
- An effective addition to a flea control Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy.
- Approved for use on dogs, cats, puppies and kittens.
- Convenient - simply apply Petcor by spraying as needed.
How It Works
The mobility of dogs and cats makes it difficult to treat all potential areas of flea infestation. So, it's important to consider a flea control formulation that goes where they do - especially one that targets pre-adult fleas, the source of reinfestations.
We recommend treatments inside and outside
Petcor Flea Spray contains Precor IGR, an Insect Growth Regulator that targets flea eggs on the animal by sterilizing them.
Application Sites
- Coat of dogs, cats, puppies or kittens
- Contains natural pyrethrins to immediately kill adult Fleas, Ticks and Lice, plus Precor IGR, an insect growth regulator that targets the egg and larval stages of development for 63 days after application. Approved for use on dogs, cats, puppies and kittens (Not to be used on puppies and kittens under 12 weeks of age). The mobility of dogs and cats makes it difficult to treat all potential areas of flea infestation. So it's important to consider a flea control formulation that goes where they do - especially one that targets pre-adult fleas, the source of reinfestations.
It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
A light, even coverage of the hair coat will provide effective flea control. Do not allow spray from application or damp animal to come into contact with painted or finished surfaces, including wood floors/furniture, leather/vinyl materials, or other surfaces of concern. For best penetration, ruffle the coat while spraying against the natural lay of the hair. Cover animal's eyes with hand. With a firm fast stroke, spray head, ears, and chest. With cloth, rub into face around mouth, nose, and eyes. Then spray the neck, middle and hind quarters, finishing with legs and tail last. Avoid spraying rectum and genitals. Apply at the rate of 1 or 2 squeezes of the trigger sprayer per pound of body weight. For larger dogs, spray until damp, not saturated. Do not allow animals, cats in particular, to become chilled. Repeat every 2 months, for continuous home flea infestation prevention. If your pet becomes re infested with adult fleas from outside sources, PETCOR Flea Spray may be reapplied weekly.
Make sure spray thoroughly wets individual ticks.
Leaving the eyes, nose, and mouth exposed, treat puppies and kittens weighing less than 3 pounds by wrapping the animal in a towel that has been lightly sprayed with PETCOR Flea Spray, for 5 to 10 minutes. Or lightly spray a brush or cotton ball and work thoroughly into the hair coat. Fleas may then be removed from the coat by picking or combing. Puppies and kittens over 3 pounds may be treated the same as dogs and cats as described above. Repeat every 2 months for continuous home flea infestation prevention. If your pet becomes re infested with adult fleas from outside sources, PETCOR Flea Spray may be reapplied weekly. Do not allow animal to become chilled. DO NOT USE ON PUPPIES AND KITTENS UNDER 12 WEEKS OF AGE.

I used this on 2 cats and 1 medium dog. I also sprayed the house with a insecticide and IGR. The fleas diminished for a week or so, then seemed to come back to some degree, both on the pets and in the house. I used Petcor Flea Spray a 2nd time, along with redosing the house, and am pleased to report no further fleas have been found in the last few weeks.
It certainly works, but it isn't the magic that spot-on treatments once were. I was hoping to get more use out of the bottle than a single outbreak, but all the products I purchased worked far better than anything I have picked up at the local pet store. I would recommend cleaning the house thoroughly and laundering any bedding or other items the pets spend time on.
- Usually have great results, but one cat has severe irritation
I have ordered this in the past and had fabulous results... we were flea-free (indoor cats) until just recently, so I ordered another batch... noticed a lot of extreme redness and irritation on the underside of one of my cats last night... and the product does not seem as effective as before, still have fleas ugh. We use in conjunction with the Precor premise spray. I am puzzled because I have sworn on his stuff after our first experience, and I am willing to give it another shot, just not on the cat that had the reaction...
- Highly effective against fleas
Petcor works so much better than the products you get at a grocery or pet store. This is more expensive but you get what you pay for. I will never buy the grocery/pet store brands again.
- ISIS fleas
Great product...have a little patience and it will do the job as advertised.
- Pector Flea Spray
This is the BEST product I have ever used for fleas. Sprayed my outside dog in April and he is still flea free. Sprayed 5 inside cats---same thing. This also works on carpets and furniture. I will never use anything but this and will always order from this site. How can you beat a wonderful product with free shipping? Thank you and my pets thank you----Dee
- Petcor Flea Spray
Jut ordered 3rd bottle for my carpets since the cat's have not had fleas since April. This stuff works on furniture and carpets with no staining. I LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Excellent
I ordered this for my 4 cats who are indoor pets, but some how got flea infested as well as my home. I sprayed them and also the few carpets I have . My cats have been flea free for 2 weeks now. I bought some other stuff for home, but this product worked excellent on my cats!! They thank you-but not as much as me!!!!!!
- Great product
Works better than anything I have tried.
- Overall very good
I own a pest control company and noticed this product on the shelf of my supplier. The ingredients are all essential in control of fleas yet safe enough to use on Cats Dogs , Kittens, Puppies..You will see immediate results..Be ready to catch and kill fleas which are jumping off right after application. I used it on my pets and found it to be very effective with lasting results. I like every else have bought products off the shelf that are weak or results seem to be poor at best. This actually works!! I recommend it to all my pest control clients. Read the label carefully and try it on a small area on the pet first to ensure it does not have a negative reaction.
