Auschwitz and the dawning of the Atomic Age
"It's ironic that the German uranium intended for the Japanese, was ultimately delivered by the Americans." – John Lansdale Jr.
By Arend Lammertink. July 20th, 2016.
For years now, revisionist authors have argued that there is something very wrong with the generally accepted historiography about the complex of factories and concentration camps known as Auschwitz. The debate so far has handled mostly about the question of whether or not it is true that the Germans systematically exterminated large numbers of people in gas chambers. For some reason, the remarkable fact that the supposed "Buna" plant within the complex produced absolutely nothing yet consumed more electricity than the entire city of Berlin thus far almost completely escaped attention. As it turns out, this is just one of the reasons to believe that this plant actually was an Uranium enrichment facility. An Uranium enrichment facility without which there would have been no A-bombing of neither Hiroshima nor Nagasaki.
Needless to say, if this were true and was to become widespread knowledge, it would have a significant impact on global politics, which thus would give us a motive for the relentless suppression of revisionists and their theses all over the Western world.
While a lot of literature is available on the question of whether or not the Germans systematically exterminated large numbers of people in the gas chambers at Auschwitz, hardly any literature is available on what the actual purpose of the complex was, if it was not primarily an extermination camp.
The answer to that question not only shines new light on the beginning of the Atomic Age, it also explains why there is a geopolitical motive to suppress the truth about what happened at Auschwitz. At the end of the line, this suppression goes so far that a professional chemist, who wrote a report about the forensic research he conducted at the site, ended up behind bars in Germany.
So, apparently what happened at Auschwitz is important, very important. Germar Rudolf, the mentioned chemist, put it this way:If the Holocaust were unimportant, we wouldn't have around 20 countries on this planet outlawing its critical investigation. In fact, this is the only historical topic that is regulated by penal law. This is proof for the fact that the powers that be consider this topic to be the most important issue to keep under their strict control. Those censoring, suppressing powers are the real criminals — not the historical dissidents they send to prison.
I don't think many people in Europe will disagree that it is important to fight racism and the spreading of hatred. In The Netherlands, where I live, this is regulated by law, which is very reasonable. In practice, such a general formulation of the law has been used successfully to prosecute a number of "holocaust deniers" in The Netherlands (see for example: [1] and [2]), which were given mild sentences in comparison to other countries.
If anything, these sentences make clear that there is absolutely no reason to explicitly make "holocaust denial" as such punishable by law, while doing so makes it next to impossible to perform independent scientific research on this important historic subject. Especially in Germany, where one cannot even defend one's position on the subject with factual data, it is clear that the German law goes way to far, whereby the sentencing of Germar Rudolf is perhaps the most illustrative example of how well intended laws can go terribly wrong.
The story of Germar Rudolf is told in the following documentary, along with the story of Ernst Zündel and Bradley R. Smith, made by David Cole in 2007. Rudolf ended up behind bars after publishing his "Expert Report on Chemical and Technical Aspects of the "Gas Chambers" of Auschwitz":
So far, it is clear that engaging in this debate from a historic and scientific perspective, even in The Netherlands, is not without risks. Yet, as law-abiding and freedom loving citizen, we have a moral obligation to speak out against the prosecution of people who are merely doing their job. We cannot allow science and history to be distorted because of geopolitical interests, which is clearly the case here as we are talking about the history of the Atomic weapons of mass destruction which killed at least 129,000 people in August 1945.
Howard Zinn, who was a political science professor at Boston University, said this about our democratic responsibility to say what we want to say, especially when we deal with "deception of the public by the government in times of war":"We have a responsibility to speak out, to speak our minds, especially now, and no matter what they say and how they cry for unity and supporting the president and getting in line. We have a democratic responsibility as citizens to speak out and say what we want to say.One of the other things we need to do is to take a look at history, because history may be useful in helping us understand what is going on. The president isn't giving us history and the media aren't giving us history. They never do. Here we have this incredibly complex technologically developed media, but you don't get the history that you need to understand what is going on today. There is one kind of history that they will give you, because history can not only be used for good purposes, but history can be abused.History can't give you definitive and positive answers to the issues that come up today, but it can suggest things. It can suggest skepticism about certain things. It can suggest probabilities and possibilities. There are some things you can learn from historical experience. One thing you can learn is that there is a long history of deception of the public by the government in times of war, or just before war, or to get us into war, going back to the Mexican war, when Polk lied to the nation about what was happening on the boarder between the Oasis River and the Rio Grande River.
[…][O]f all the things I'm going to tell you, remember two words. Governments lie. It's a good starting point.I'm not saying governments always lie, no they don't always lie. But it's a good idea to start off with the assumption that governments lie, and therefore whatever they say, especially when it comes to matters of war and foreign policy. Because when it's a matter of domestic policy, there are things that you may be able to check up on, because its here and in this country, but something happening very far away, people don't know very much about foreign policy. We depend on them because they're supposed to know. They have the experts.
With this in mind, let's take a look at David Cole, who made an extraordinary documentary about Auschwitz and addressed all of the issues which should have been openly and honestly debated, instead of having been suppressed for geopolitical reasons. Perhaps the most significant part of this documentary is Cole's interview with Dr Franciszek Piper, "a Polish scholar, historian and author. Most of his work concerns the Holocaust, especially the history of the Auschwitz concentration camp".
Cole managed to get Dr. Piper on tape, explaining that the alleged "gas chamber" in Auschwitz, which was said by Cole's tourist guide to be "all original", actually is a postwar reconstruction by the Soviets. This part starts at 35:50. I would suggest to use your own judgment and decide for yourself whether or not this documentary should be regarded as "historic review" or as "holocaust denial":
According to the transcript, these are Dr. Piper's exact words:"So after the liberation of the camp, the former gas chamber presented a view of [an] air [raid] shelter. In order to gain an earlier view …earlier sight…of this object, the inside walls built in 1944 were removed and the openings in the ceiling were made anew.So now this gas chamber is very similar to this one which existed in 1941-1942, but not all details were made so there is no gas-tight doors, for instance, [and the] additional entrance from the east side rested [remained] as it was made in 1944. Such changes were made after the war in order to gain [the] earlier view of this object."
This historic documentary was made over 20 years ago and today it is just as explosive as it was when it first came out. Recently, David Cole gave a 2.5 hour long radio interview about his experiences and his current view on the subject.
After this short introduction to what this debate has mostly been about, the analysis of the alleged "gas chambers" in Auschwitz and it's importance in even present day geopolitics, we now continue with the main topic of this article, namely that because the IG Farben plant actually was a Uranium enrichment plant, people like Germar Rudolf are to be considered as having been political prisoners in modern-day Europe, a clear violation of internationally recognized Human Rights.
Hitler's Atomic Program
For decades, few people questioned whether or not Nazi Germany came close to producing an Atomic Bomb, let alone testing one. Yet, the latter is exactly what has been suggested in 2005 by Rainer Karlsch in his book "Hitler's Bomb". Based on eyewitness accounts, he brings forth that in 1944 on the Baltic island of Rügen and in the spring of 1945 in Thuringia atomic bombs were tested. Also, a 1943 OSS report refers to a series of nuclear tests in the Schwabian Alps near Bisingen in July 1943. And measurements are said to have been carried out at the test site that found radioactive isotopes. Daniel W. Michaels' review of Karlsch book reads:Although the title of his book, Hitler's Bomb, suggests more than the author could actually deliver, Karlsch defines the main thesis of his book much more soberly. He states very clearly that German scientists did not develop a nuclear device at all comparable to the American or Soviet hydrogen bombs of the 1950s. However, they knew in general terms how they functioned and were in a position to excite an initial nuclear reaction by means of their perfected hollow-charge technology. Only further research will determine whether their experiment represented fusion or fission reactions, or both.
Then in 2011, accordingly, "shock waves" were sent "through historians who thought that the German atomic programme was nowhere near advanced enough in WW2 to have produced nuclear waste in any quantities":German nuclear experts believe they have found nuclear waste from Hitler's secret atom bomb programme in a crumbling mine near Hanover.More than 126,000 barrels of nuclear material lie rotting over 2,000 feet below ground in an old salt mine.
[…]Mark Walker, a US expert on the Nazi programme said: 'Because we still don't know about these projects, which remain cloaked in WW2 secrecy, it isn't safe to say the Nazis fell short of enriching enough uranium for a bomb. Some documents remain top secret to this day'.'Claims that a nuclear weapon was tested at Ruegen in October 1944 and again at Ohrdruf in March 1945 leave open a question, did they or didn't they?'
Dr. Joseph Farrell, author of "Reich of the Black Sun", commented on this article on his blog, mentioning that the Nazi atom bomb tests have begun to be researched and discussed in Germany, continuing with:This was supplemented by Carter Hydrick's wonderful study Critical Mass, a study that in my opinion was so good that it had to be trashed by reviewers (which it was), because the story it contained was so stupendous. According to Hydrick, the Nazi nuclear program involved, at the minimum, a huge uranium enrichment program, and that program was probably successful to the point that the Nazis had enriched, to varying degrees of purity, uranium 235, and some of it was probably of fissile-weapons grade quality.
Also, he makes the point that the discovery of this nuclear waste is very significant, because it confirms Hydrick's argument, "namely, that the Nazi program was not the haphazard, hit-and-miss, poorly coordinated laboratory affair that got no further than a few clumsy attempts by Heisenberg to build a reactor, but rather, its enrichment program was a huge concern, highly organized, and processing isotopes to a degree similar to, if not exceeding, the Manhattan project in its sheer size."
Manhattan, we have a problem!
A study of the shipment of (bomb-grade uranium) for the past three months shows the following...: At the present rate we will have 10 kilos about February 7 and 15 kilos about May 1.
This small excerpt from a memo written by chief Los Alamos metallurgist Eric Jette, December 28, 1944[I] reveals that the Manhattan project had a serious problem. You see, the uranium bomb "Little Boy", which was dropped on Hiroshima, would have required 50 kilos by the end of July, 1945, more than twice the amount the Manhattan project would have been able to produce themselves according to this memo.
This raises the question: "How did they solve this problem?"
In order to answer this question, we would need to know what the bottleneck in the Oak Ridge production rate was. This could be either a supply problem of raw uranium for the plant, or a problem with the production capacity of the plant itself. If raw material were the biggest problem, additional material could have come from multiple (mining) sources, including Nazi Germany. In fact, the Alsos Mission did just that.
However, if the biggest problem was the production capacity of the plant itself, then they must have gotten additional supply of enriched uranium from some external source, be it in metallic or oxide form. And that could have come from only one source: Nazi Germany.
U-235 on the U-234?
On May 14th, 1945, the German submarine U-234 surrendered to the USS Sutton, along with her precious cargo which was intended to be shipped to Japan:The cargo included technical drawings, examples of the newest electric torpedoes, one crated Me 262 jet aircraft, a Henschel Hs 293 glide bomb and what was later listed on the US Unloading Manifest as 1,200 pounds (540 kg) of uranium oxide. In the 1997 book Hirschfeld, Wolfgang Hirschfeld reported that he saw about 50 lead cubes with 23 centimetres (9.1 in) sides, and "U-235" painted on each, loaded into the boat's cylindrical mine shafts. According to cable messages sent from the dockyard, these containers held "U-powder".
[…]The fact that the ship carried .5 short tons (0.45 t) of uranium oxide remained classified for the duration of the Cold War. Author and historian Joseph M. Scalia claimed to have found a formerly secret cable at Portsmouth Navy Yard which stated that the uranium oxide had been stored in gold-lined cylinders rather than cubes as reported by Hirschfeld; the alleged document is discussed in Scalia's book Hitler's Terror Weapons. The exact characteristics of the uranium remain unknown.
There is little doubt that this uranium oxide was shipped to the Manhattan project, as reported by the NY Times, quoting Mr. John Lansdale Jr.:Historians have quietly puzzled over that uranium shipment for years, wondering, among other things, what the American military did with it. Little headway was made because of Federal secrecy. Now, however, a former official of the Manhattan Project, John Lansdale Jr., says that the uranium went into the mix of raw materials used for making the world's first atom bombs. At the time he was an Army lieutenant colonel for intelligence and security for the atom bomb project. One of his main jobs was tracking uranium.Mr. Lansdale's assertion in an interview raises the possibility that the American weapons that leveled the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki contained at least some nuclear material originally destined for Japan's own atomic program and, perhaps, for attacks on the United States.If confirmed, that twist of history could add a layer to the already complex debate over whether the United States had any moral justification for using its atom bombs against Japan.
[…]Mr. Lansdale, the former official of the Manhattan Project, displayed no doubts in the interview about the fate of the U-234's shipment. "It went to the Manhattan District," he said without hesitation. "It certainly went into the Manhattan District supply of uranium."Mr. Lansdale added that he remembered no details of the uranium's destination in the sprawling bomb-making complex and had no opinion on whether it helped make up the material for the first atomic bomb used in war.
In the documentary "U-234-Hitler's Last U-Boat" (2001), a few years later, Mr Lansdale did have an opinion:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xw60hyA0DSw(48:30) "I made arrangements for my staff to retrieve and test the material. I sent trucks to Porthsmouth to unload the uranium and then I sent it to Washington. After the uranium was inspected in Washington, it was sent to Oak Ridge."(51:16) "It's ironic that the German uranium intended for the Japanese, was ultimately delivered by the Americans."(54:12) "The submarine was a God send, because it came at the right time and the right place."
In the same documentary, Hans Bethe, former head of the Theoretical Division at the secret Los Alamos laboratory which developed the US atomic bombs, implicitly gives an estimate of the production capacity of the Oak Ridge plant, together with another person being interviewed:(49:25) Bethe: "If you have 560 kg of uranium, it would have taken approximately a week in 1945 to separate it into weapons uranium."(50:27) Unknown: "500 kg of raw uranium might result in half a kg of uranium 235. Not enough to make a bomb with, but an important increment."
Based on this, we can estimate that the production capacity of the Oak Ridge facility was approximately half a kg per week. We can compare this with the data in Jette's memo, about 5 kg in the 12 weeks between February 7th and May 1st, which would mean an average production of about 0.42 kg per week, a pretty good match.
However, contrary to the above quote, the Wikipedia article on the U-234 states that the 560 kg of uranium oxide would have yielded about 3.5 kg of U-235 "after processing", with a reference to the book "American Raiders" by Samuel Wolfgang. On it's turn, this refers to "Hitler's U-boat war: the Hunted" by Clay Blair, wherein the uranium oxide is listed as "1,232 pounds of uranium ore". After mentioning Karl Pfaff's (German Sailor) assistance in unloading the "boxes of uranium-oxide ore" from the submarine (also see: [3]), it states:Scientists say this uranium ore would have yielded about 3.5 kilograms (7.7 pounds) of isotope U-235 (not a U-boat), about one-fifth of what was needed to make an atomic bomb.
Actually, the critical mass for an uranium-235 bomb is about 50 kg, but it depends on the grade: with 20% U-235 it is over 400 kg; with 15% U-235, it is well over 600 kg. So, 3.5 kilograms would be at most one-fifteenth (7%) of what was needed. The actual bomb dropped on Hiroshima used 64 kilograms of 80% enriched uranium, which in practice comprised almost 2.5 critical masses, because the fissile core was wrapped in a neutron reflector which allows a weapon design requiring less uranium.
Because U-235 constitutes about 0.711% by weight of natural uranium, 560 kg of raw uranium would result in about 3.98 kg of U-235. However, we are talking about 560 kg of uranium oxide and not pure uranium, so we have to correct for the amount of oxygen in the material in order to calculate how much uranium 235 this would yield.
If we assume the oxide to be uranium-dioxide (UO2), then we would have to take about 88% (238/(238+2*16)) of the 3.98 kg in order to correct for the oxygen, which would result in about 3.51 kg of U-235.
We can also assume the oxide to be so-called "Yellowcake", a type of uranium powder as it would be after processing mining ore, but before enrichment. Yellowcake contains about 80% uranium oxide, of which typically 70 to 90 percent triuranium octoxide (U3O8). In that case, we have to correct by about 85% for the oxygen on top of the 80% for 20% impurities, which would result in about 2.70 kg of U-235.
Both of these numbers are significantly higher than the half a kg mentioned in the U-boat documentary, which is rather remarkable. And this is also where this story becomes intriguing, because what we see is that there are discrepancies between what is being told to the public and the hard, factual data that should corroborate with it.
Enter "Critical Mass – The Real Story of the Birth of the Atomic Bomb and the Nuclear Age" by Carter P. Hydrick, who argues that there is a lot more to this story than meets the eye, which can be found in the records of the Manhattan project:As far as I can tell, I was the first to review the actual uranium enrichment production records, the shipping and receiving records of materials sent from Oak Ridge to Los Alamos, the metallurgical fabrication records of the making of the bombs themselves, and the records and testimony regarding failure to develop a viable triggering device for the plutonium bomb.
[…]The critical daily production records of Oak Ridge and elsewhere have been all but ignored, though they reveal important information not previously considered in other histories, and although they tell a different story than that presently believed.
[…]The new-found evidence taken en mass demonstrates that, despite the traditional history, the uranium captured from U-234 was enriched uranium that was commandeered into the Manhattan Project more than a month before the final uranium slugs were assembled for the uranium bomb. The Oak Ridge records of its chief uranium enrichment effort – the magnetic isotope separators known as calutrons – show that a week after Smith's and Traynor's 14 June conversation, the enriched uranium output at Oak Ridge nearly doubled – after six months of steady output.Edward Hammel, a metallurgist who worked with Eric Jette at the Chicago Met Lab, where the enriched uranium was fabricated into the bomb slugs, corroborated this report of late-arriving enriched uranium. Mr. Hammel told the author that very little enriched uranium was received at the laboratory until just two or three weeks – certainly less than a month – before the bomb was dropped.The Manhattan Project had been in desperate need of enriched uranium to fuel its lingering uranium bomb program. Now it is almost conclusively proven that U-234 provided the enriched uranium needed, as well as components for a plutonium breeder reactor.
The story so far has been recently summarized as follows by Ian Greenhalgh:Without the German uranium and fuses, no atomic bombs would have been completed before 1946 at the earliest.
That brings us to the question: "How and where could Germany have managed to produce over 500 kg of enriched uranium?"
Buna or Uranium?
German born engineer Hans Baumann, author of a book about Hitler's alleged escape to Argentina, recently wrote a remarkable introduction to the history of the use of high-speed centrifuges for the enrichment of uranium. He mentions that "while the U.S. had no problem creating sufficient plutonium, creating fissionable uranium proved more difficult" due to the low efficiency of the procedures they tried. In Germany, though, a professor came up with the idea of the (ultra)centrifuge, which proved successful. The rest of the article says it all:A plant facility was built close to the Polish border (away from possible air attacks). For security reasons, the plant housing the centrifuges, was called a buna-n facility; where buna-n is an artificial rubber. At the end of the war Germany had produced 1,230 pounds of enriched uranium dioxide (UO2, containing the solidified gas of U235).The Germans then tried to ship this heavy and radioactive metal to Japan but it never arrived.In January 1945, the Russian army discovered this buna-n facility and evacuated the centrifuges to Russia, where they likely played an important role to create the Russian atomic bomb a few years later.
Hydrick goes into more detail:By May 1944, compared with American production efforts that at their best resulted in enriching uranium from its raw state of .7 percent to about 10 to 12 percent on the first pass, the first German experimental ultracentrifuge succeeded with enriching the material to seven percent.
[…]Ultracentrifuge output was so impressive, in fact, that following its very first experimental run, funding and authority were established to build ten additional production model ultracentrifuges in Kandern, a town in the southwest of Germany far from the fighting. […] The Nazis were now committed in a big way to ultracentrifuge production – and therefore to enriching uranium.
[…]Production for the German isotope enrichment projects, once the experimental and design work were completed by Ardenne and the others, appears to have been undertaken by the I.G. Farben company under orders of the Nazi Party. The company was directed to construct at Auschwitz a buna factory, allegedly for making synthetic rubber.Following the war, the Farben board of directors bitterly complained that no buna was ever produced despite the plant being under construction for four-and-a-half years; the employment of 25,000 workers from the concentration camp, of whom it makes note the workers were especially well-treated and well fed; and the utilization of 12,000 skilled German scientists and technicians from Farben. Farben also invested 900 million reichsmarks (equal to approximately
\$2 billion of today's dollars) in the facility.The plant used more electrical power than the entire city of Berlin yet it never made any buna, the substance it was "intended" to produce.When these facts were described to an expert on polymer production (buna is a member of the polymer, or synthetic rubber, family), Mr. Ed Landry, Mr. Landry responded directly, "It was not a rubber plant, you can bet your bottom dollar on that."Landry went on to explain that while some types of buna are made by heating, which requires using relatively large amounts of energy, this energy is invariably supplied by burning coal. Coal was plentiful and well-mined in the area and was a key reason for locating the plant at Auschwitz when it was still intended to be a buna facility. The heating-of-buna process, to Landry's knowledge, was never attempted using electricity, nor could he envision why it would have been. Landry totally dismissed the possibility that a buna plant, had it tried an electric option, would ever use more electricity than the entire city of Berlin. And the investment of
\$2 billion is, "A hell of a lot of money for a buna plant" even these days, according to Mr. Landry.The probability of the Farben plant having been completed to make buna appears to be very slim to none. The plant contained all of the characteristics of a uranium enrichment plant, however, which undoubtedly it would never have been identified as, but it would have had an appropriate cover story to camouflage it – such as it supposedly being a buna plant. In fact, buna would have been an excellent cover because of the high level and types of technology involved in both.
From this perspective, it would make perfectly sense for the Germans to make sure the 25,000 workers from the concentration camp were well treated, well fed and even to take surprising measures in order to protect their lives from infectious disease (page 175):The extent of the German effort to improve hygienic conditions at Auschwitz is evident from an amazing decision made in 1943/44. During the war, the Germans developed microwave ovens, not just to sterilize food, but to delouse and disinfect clothing as well. The first operational microwave apparatus was intended for use on the eastern front, to delouse and disinfect soldiers' clothing. After direct war casualties, infectious diseases were the second greatest cause of casualties of German soldiers. But instead of utilizing these new devices at the eastern front, the German government decided to use them in Auschwitz to protect the lives of the inmates, most of whom were Jews. When it came to protecting lives threatened by infectious disease, the Germans obviously gave priority to the Auschwitz prisoners. Since they were working in the Silesian war industries, their lives were apparently considered comparably important to the lives of soldiers on the battlefield.
Cui bono?
No investigation is complete without a little exercise in "follow the money", in this case to and from Nazi Germany. While for ages it has been said that all roads lead to Rome, it appears that all financial routes lead to "Wall Street" and have been leading there for decades already, which makes "Wall Street" a global centre of power, the spider in a gigantic web of corporations reaching all over the globe.
Perhaps the first scholar who investigated the involvement of "Wall Street" in geopolitics was Prof. Antony Sutton. In the following interview about his work, he says that "Wall Street" funded and was deeply involved in organizing three forms of socialism. These were the socialist welfare state (particularly under Roosevelt in the US), Bolshevik communism and Nazi national socialism. This gives a very good impression of the extend to which the "Wall Street" crime centre shaped the twentieth century, safely out of the public view:
In "Wall Street and the rise of Hitler" Sutton wrote in his conclusions (chapter 12) about the "Pervasive Influence of International Bankers":"Looking at the broad array of facts presented in the three volumes of the Wall Street series, we find persistent recurrence of the same names: Owen Young, Gerard Swope, Hjalmar Schacht, Bernard Baruch, etc.; the same international banks: J.P. Morgan, Guaranty Trust, Chase Bank; and the same location in New York: usually 120 Broadway.This group of international bankers backed the Bolshevik Revolution and subsequently profited from the establishment of a Soviet Russia. This group backed Roosevelt and profited from New Deal socialism. This group also backed Hitler and certainly profited from German armament in the 1930s. When Big Business should have been running its business operations at Ford Motor, Standard of New Jersey, and so on, we find it actively and deeply involved in political upheavals, war, and revolutions in three major countries."
A recent study by complex systems theorists at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich concluded that a core group of 147 tightly knit companies pretty much control half of the global economy:"AS PROTESTS against financial power sweep the world this week, science may have confirmed the protesters' worst fears. An analysis of the relationships between 43,000 transnational corporations has identified a relatively small group of companies, mainly banks, with disproportionate power over the global economy. […] "In effect, less than 1 per cent of the companies were able to control 40 per cent of the entire network," says Glattfelder. Most were financial institutions. The top 20 included Barclays Bank, JPMorgan Chase & Co, and The Goldman Sachs Group."
In other words: what we see here is that pretty much the same names that came up in Sutton's research as being involved with shady geopolitic activities, continue to come up in investigations into the financial web of control that shapes geopolitics today. Not one, but two US Presidents gave clear and specific warnings about the potential existence of exactly such kind of corporate control structure, which could acquire "unwarranted powers".
Interestingly enough, two later US Presidents were closely related to an individual who was "actively and deeply involved" in the group Eisenhower, Kennedy and Sutton warned us about, as reported by "The Guardian":"The Guardian has obtained confirmation from newly discovered files in the US National Archives that a firm of which Prescott Bush was a director was involved with the financial architects of Nazism.His business dealings, which continued until his company's assets were seized in 1942 under the Trading with the Enemy Act, has led more than 60 years later to a civil action for damages being brought in Germany against the Bush family by two former slave labourers at Auschwitz and to a hum of pre-election controversy.The evidence has also prompted one former US Nazi war crimes prosecutor to argue that the late senator's action should have been grounds for prosecution for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
[…]The first set of files, the Harriman papers in the Library of Congress, show that Prescott Bush was a director and shareholder of a number of companies involved with Thyssen.The second set of papers, which are in the National Archives, are contained in vesting order number 248 which records the seizure of the company assets. What these files show is that on October 20 1942 the alien property custodian seized the assets of the UBC, of which Prescott Bush was a director. Having gone through the books of the bank, further seizures were made against two affiliates, the Holland-American Trading Corporation and the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation. By November, the Silesian-American Company, another of Prescott Bush's ventures, had also been seized."
Other interesting information can be found in the public record regarding the so-called "Business Plot", an attempt to overthrow Roosevelt:"The Business Plot (also known as The White House Coup) was a political conspiracy (see Congressional Record) in 1933 in the United States. Retired Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler claimed that wealthy businessmen were plotting to create a fascist veterans' organization with Butler as its leader and use it in a coup d'état to overthrow President Franklin D. Roosevelt. In 1934, Butler testified before the United States House of Representatives Special Committee on Un-American Activities (the "McCormack-Dickstein Committee") on these claims. No one was prosecuted."
BBC4 aired a documentary about this in 2007:"The coup was aimed at toppling President Franklin D Roosevelt with the help of half-a-million war veterans. The plotters, who were alleged to involve some of the most famous families in America, (owners of Heinz, Birds Eye, Goodtea, Maxwell Hse & George Bush's Grandfather, Prescott) believed that their country should adopt the policies of Hitler and Mussolini to beat the great depression."
While there is no direct evidence to prove for the full 100% that the IG Farben plant near Auschwitz indeed was an Uranium Enrichment facility, there is enough circumstantial evidence to state that it almost certainly was. The combination of the characteristics of the IG Farben plant and the U-234 shipment of Uranium oxide, with which the Manhattan project solved their production problem as well as their plutonium bomb ignition problem, leaves little doubt that the cargo of the U-234 indeed contained enriched Uranium, enriched Uranium that came from the IG Farben plant near Auschwitz. The submarine would not have been a "God send" if it would not have contained enriched Uranium. In other words, what we have here is "probable cause", enough to warrant an in-depth investigation into the details.
From this perspective, we indeed have a clear motive for both the US as well as Russia to try and hide this story. We also identified a group, centred around "Wall Street, who has an even bigger motive to keep this story under wraps. In other words: we both see a motive and an opportunity for "Wall Street" to hide this story and to cover it up with propaganda, censorship, lies and deception.
And yes, that means that we, as democratic citizen, have a moral obligation to speak out about this and say what we want to say.
And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular; but one must take it because it is right. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Robert Downey Jr takes his fitness regimen seriously, even when he's not training for a movie role.
He has used Yoga with its meditative powers to help him recover from drug addiction and practices Wing Chun for a complete and balanced physical, mental and spiritual workout.
Five months prior to filming, Downey Jr focused on barbell training to get him up to speed and to condition his body to handle the next gruelling segment of this workout regimen.
To keep the star motivated and to match his unconventional personality, Bose designed a program that involved kettlebells, Indian club swinging, sledge hammers, fire hoses, sled pulls and a wheel barrow. Not exactly the route you'd expect for a mutli-million-dollar celebrity, but Downey Jr was bored with his regular routine and needed a refreshing change.
If I have to get underneath a bench press or a squat, I'm going to shoot myself. I just don't have the motivation.
After losing weight for his role in Sherlock Holmes and dropping down to 151 lb, Downey Jr's challenge was to add muscle strength without bulking up too much. Increasing his caloric intake, eating 6 protein-rich meals a day and using protein powders for muscle building mass, Downey Jr put on 25 lb of muscle in just four weeks, while he was shooting Iron Man.
The Iron Man Workout
- Kettlebell training with an emphasis on throws to strengthen the glutes and train your hip snap.
- Indian club swinging – like kettlebells but much larger. This is good training for martial arts, as a lot of the movements mimic those of martial arts.
- Meels – like club swinging but much bigger and heavier for superior upper body strength training.
- Two Fire Hoses – one filled with water, one filled with sand for added weight and difficulty. Standing at the end of the extended fire hose, the trick is to whip the hose like you're trying to straighten it out. This will spike your heart rate to the maximum in 0 to 10 seconds.
- Sled Pulls – pulling in a weight plate tethered to a rope from a great distance.
- SUV Tires – picking up and throwing these huge tires incorporates squatting and the throwing/push muscles of the upper body.
- Sledgehammers – hammering on an old tractor tire with 4 – 20 lb sledgehammers helps to train the entire body from the legs, back, arms and shoulders and introduces a different range of motion; therefore, incorporating a different group of muscles.
- Wheelbarrows – loading up a wheelbarrow with 600 – 700 lb weight plates, Downey Jr had to navigate an obstacle course, keeping the wheelbarrow on course and upright.
Check out this club swinging workout and remember that all of these training methods require you to be in tip-top shape. Anybody with shoulder injuries should never try these exercises. Your best bet is to seek the counsel of a certified professional trainer:

I can't say how many forums I've registered at, made a few posts on, and then found that the group just wasn't that into integrating new members. There are a couple others out there that I merely lurk on (like advrider - I'm not worthy). BBO has something really rare. I even had it set as my home page once (switched to google after the hacking incident and never switched back, but it remains either the first or second click I make when I want to waste time on the internet). Also, I will die if IT here at work ever catches on. If I had to get through even the busiest work day without at least clicking over here and reading the bar, it would be like when your childhood goldfish flopped out of his bowl and suffocated before you got home from school... except way more pathetic.

Simple but powerful words to live by.
Have the courage to take that first step to go after what you are so passionate about.
Be kind to everyone 💗
Hi! I'm Daniella!
I am a health and wellness coach, a wife, and mom to 3 amazing kids. Working hard to balance it all while enjoying this amazing journey of life.
I'm looking forward to sharing my favorite things with all of you from health and wellness tips to fashion and everything in between!
I found my way on this path after witnessing a health scare for a family member. It was then I decided it was time to really take action and consciously make healthier choices for myself and my family.
Showing my kids at an early age that yes, we do have options and we can make our own choice even if it means going against the norm.
On this health and wellness journey, I was introduced to Young Living Essential Oils – an essential oil company that offers therapeutic grade – pure essential oils that have now become part of our daily regimen and we couldn't be happier or healthier for that matter!
I was also introduced to Oola - Oola is about being the best version of you that you can be, achieving more balance in your life and eliminating stress. and honestly who wouldn't want that?
Change can sometimes be intimidating but as the Oola guys say..
"Don't be afraid to take an unfamiliar path. Sometimes they are the ones that take you to the best places" - #LiveOola
Being such a private person, I do find at times that sharing my life with people I do not know is uncharted territory for me – So thank you in advance for following along! It has become my passion to share what I've learned with all of you on how easy it can be to
live the life of your dreams,
the life you deserve to live,
the life you were intended to live.. to your fullest potential!

text: Yes, of course we all know we should exercise every day during the holiday season to help counter the onslaught of excess calories that started on Thanksgiving and will mercifully end with a New Year's toast. We may even tire of hearing about exercise and weight from family, friends and the media. But an equally important reason to exercise every day is related to blood pressure, not waistline. As a physiologist who has studied exercise and health for over 20 years, I can tell you that exercise lowers blood pressure – and does so right away. Whether you go for a daily run or brisk walk, every time you finish exercising your blood pressure goes down, and stays down for many hours, which is good for your overall health. Here's why.

A small beautiful stamp set works great for small areas. It has a great price point!
After some videos that I saw, I ordered this stamp. It is a small stamp but gives big results!! I used it to create a background in a pale pink and it was so pretty. I also used it on the outside of an envelope to pretty it up. So happy I bought it!!

Hello there, Big G.
|Pieces of Letters to God
I hope You're well and all. I started writing you a letter some time back but then my train of thought got derailed... What I wanted to say was significant in some manner so I shall keep it in the wings till it feels the need to resurface again.
Onward march to today then, I'm seeing Red. I want Red October to take flight and be all kinds of cool, You know. So, yeah, please provide me with some guidance on this long, hard and pretty satisfying (reading this again, I realised how that can apply to things other than what I mean) road. Yes, that's what I need, You to hold my hand. That is all. Also, I have a Lady Love who needs some 'cute' added to her life. Could You do that for her please. She'll be cool with added 'cute'.
First things out of the way then. Good. Now I can proceed to tell You stories. Family hey. Scumbags. What's up with that? They're all annoying furry creatures that are in my face all day long. Do You have any qualms with me punching them? Just a little. I suck at the being all familial with my family, they annoy me too much. Bless their souls. I'd rather punch them - out of love and all that jazzy stuff.
Tell me, do You support football? Since working out with the boys and having to listen to them yap about it all day long about it I find it a little intriguing... When it's not being boring. So I was just wondering if You care for that football sort of thing. If I were You I'd not be able to really bring myself to care too much, but, Sir, I am not You.
Funny thing today :D. An old, and somewhat annoying, friend visited me today and a comment he made was the height of my day. He figures that when You chucked Lucifer out of Heaven You made a mistake by not stripping him of his angelic powers. I just loved how serious he was about the matter. So, Big G, You made a boo boo there.
I'm out. g2g, as the cool kids say. I love You madly (which is to say that even when I'm mad at You I love You).
P.S. I'm listening to the radio and there's a guy preaching about how You like 'bastards, cripples and broken things'. It's really cool. I'm a bastard and a broken thing. Just saying ;).

Dennis Ritchie (aka dnr):
In looking over this material, I have mixed emotions; so much of this stuff is immature and not well-done, and there is an element of embarrassment about displaying it. But at the same time it does capture two moments in a period of creativeness and may have some historical interest.
Given Objective-C is a wrapper around C, worth a look as this is where it all started.

It is the end of the month and my 2nd box never showed up. I sent a message to the seller nearly 2 weeks ago and have received no response. There is tracking information for the 2nd box from early September but it was never dropped off with the shipping company, so it hasn't moved since September 4th. I see it is now listed as out of stock, does that mean there wasn't enough stock for everyone with an active subscription?
The quality is okay. But not worth $50 for one pen, 2 notebooks, and a pencil. (Since I only received 1 shipment)

It's Official! California Is the First State to Ban the Pet Store Sale of Puppy Mill Dogs
Under the new legislation, pet store operators will be required to obtain pets from animal shelters and rescue groups
Cat, dogs, bunnies and more received a big break this week.
California's Assembly Bill 485 has passed, making California the first state to ban the sale of commercially-bred pets in pet stores statewide.
"This landmark law breaks the puppy mill supply chain that pushes puppies into California pet stores and has allowed unscrupulous breeders to profit from abusive practices," said Matt Bershadker, President and CEO of the ASPCA. "We're proud to be part of the coalition that worked alongside Assembly member Patrick O'Donnell to pass this critical animal protection bill, and thank the California legislature and Governor Brown for sending the clear message that industries supporting animal cruelty will not be tolerated in our society."
Under this new law, it is illegal for pet stores to sell pets bought from a commercial breeder, places like puppy mills and backyard breeders that cruelly turn out neglected and unhealthy animals for a profit. Instead, the animals available at California pet stores will have to be rescue/shelter pets that are in need of a home.

The law goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2019. From that day on, pet store operators will be prohibited from selling any live dog, cat or rabbit in a pet store unless the animal was obtained from a public animal control agency or shelter, American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals shelter, Humane Society shelter, or rescue group.
The new law also demands more transparency from pet stores. Pet store owners will be required to keep records on each animal they sell and to post on the pet's cage how the animal was obtained by the store. Pet store operators that violate these new regulations will be charged a civil penalty of $500 for the violation.
"By signing this groundbreaking bill, California has set an important, humane precedent for other states to follow," said Gregory Castle, CEO of Best Friends Animal Society. "We commend Governor Brown's signing of this lifesaving legislation to codify statewide what cities across California have already done to help put an end to the cruelty of pet mills."
Animal welfare groups like the ASPCA, Best Friends Animal Society and Last Chance for Animals hope this historic move by California will inspire other states to protect their pets and put an end to puppy mills and other cruel breeding operations.

Over priced, poor food, slow service. Lacking in ambience. Over the top COVID19 warnings and distancing measures destroyed the experience
Lovely Sunday lunch after a walk in the surrey hills. The staff were great -friendly and efficient.
Lovely old pub by a river. Pretty village. Friendly service.
Soggy roast potatoes that were lukewarm. School canteen quality vegetables. Chewy cold crackling that had no crackle. Pork medallion twice as thick as it should have been.
My guest's lamb shank was "awful". Won't be back.
Great location and very pretty pub. On line menu looked ok.
The shared fish starter was good.
However the 4 main courses were very poor. These included the fish and chips, odd taste. The sea bass, not good at all.
Whilst I've known and been going to this pub for many years, I could not recommended the food.
If you wanted a quiet drink on a summer evening, this could be for you.
Nice to be in a pub that serves good food with excellent service, and feel chilled with my family instead of being in a gastro pub where it's more about image than atmosphere.
great food, very kid friendly, would definitely return
Not the greatest Sunday lunch. Beef a bit overcooked even tho we asked medium rare. Plate awash with gravy - surely you could serve this in the side. Result was soggy roast potatoes. Vegetable a bit over cooked (or gravy soggy). Yorkshire nice thankfully balanced on top away from gravy. Side of cauliflower cheese was not cheese was not crispy and was microscopic. I sense no chef working here - just reheating of lunch parr's. Could and should be so much better.
Nice cosy pub. Lovely friendly staff. Disappointing menu - very classic pub food choices which isn't a problem, but clearly delivered from a supplier, not a chef in the kitchen. I've never seen an apple crumble delivered in a tough pastry case and packet sprinkle crumbs on top!
We enjoyed our roast beef Sunday lunch and the bottle of 19 Crimes wine accompanying it. Will visit again when in the area.
Nice home-cooked food and charming pub with friendly staff.
A wonderful meal in a lovely place with outstanding service
Lovely meal for Dads 84th Birthday this evening.
Mum and Dad are both fussy eaters but there was plenty of choice from a varied menu, friendly attentive staff in a beautiful location.
Sunday roast was fantastic, so tasty. Good wine selection and great service. Highly recommended.
Hidden away gem of a traditional English pub. There is plenty of parking a nice quiet garden and the interior is comfortable. We were served promptly by helpful friendly staff. the food was excellent.
It's 30 years since we visited this idyllic pub and although the pub has changed hands it's as lovely as we remembered it - very friendly staff, delicious food, honest pub grub and reasonable prices in a gorgeous rural setting- we will be back!
My friend and I were thrilled that the Volunteer is once again 'on the map' after great food and service. We loved the look of the various areas to eat - its been made very homely.
Noise level was very low as we were the only people there and I guess ambience would have been better if there had been more people.
Our meal was very good....best chips we've had anywhere!!! Slightly disappointed in that the wine I chose had run out and the dish my husband was going to choose wasn't available but we were warned on arrival. Otherwise an enjoyable evening and lovely sitting outside in the evening sunshine with a drink!
We had in fact been recommended to try the Volunteer out. Had been there years ago but not under the new management. We arrived half an hour after our booking. The owner Danielle was chilled and greeted us with a smile and a don't worry. What would you like to drink. Including bringing them to the table rather than the attitude of come & get it Pubs with bar staff more interested in bottling up than serving the customer.
The evening progressed from there. The food was extremely good. Home cooking rather than reheats of the so called Gastro Pub chains. Broad menu & I had the special Steak & Ale pie. All good in every respect. Including the very good quality reasonably priced French Merlot.
I wish them well....... My chum whom had recommended them remarked to me it was like going to a pub when your on holiday. I couldn't have agreed more on this comment. He was exactly right.
We have been there about 5 times before and it's always a treat as can take dogs and end up having a lovely walk after. Every time we struggle with the menu as there appears to be more fish and veggie dishes than meat. This time there were vegetairan burger's, vegetarian salads (?) , and another veg dish. Only roast beef and pork belly which was same as the previously Sunday visits..
The service was , just not very good and the main courses quite frankly for roast beef and pork belly were quite frankly disgusting. . The beef was tough, pork belly more fat than meat and gravey may as well have been brown water and there was more mashed potato on my plate than anything else with the fish..
The service was hit and miss and surprisingly the pub was half empty. We questioned why on a 27degrees day they couldn't do a nice salad or a normal home made burger but that was their Sunday menu apparently. I said maybe if they changed it they would have more cutom and quite honestly it was the worst pub food we have had there and anywhere and we won't be returning ..it was the worst food we havery had for ages.
A return to a favourite in the Surrey Hills which once again met our expectations.
Very quiet when we visited, food was good but nothing outstanding, service was very swift and attentive but as stated it was very very q.
Really enjoyed our time and meal at The Volunteer, it is a very homely pub with a great log fire burning away. The service was excellent and the food good. The only comment we have is that it would be good to have been offered another complement other than chips or plain mash for the sea bream, which was excellent. For a party of four we felt our meal was good value.
Lovely 'proper' country pub with real log fire and accepts dogs. A dying breed of establishments!
Food on the whole was good and quick to come out.
Service was good and polite, however I don't think its good to start clearing a table when some people are still eating. A minor thing but an easy one to fix!
Absolutley lovely place for dinner or sunday lunch. Have been many times before and never disspointed.
All the staff were so friendly, warm and kind. They couldn't do enough for us. We really enjoyed the mothers' day lunch. Food was great and the wine. We weren't rushed at all. And the goodie bag was a real bonus. But the staff and their attentiveness made the real difference. Would definitely recommend - its hard to find something genuine like this. And will definitely go again. Location and surroundings are great.
We arrived early for lunch and had a lovely coffee from very friendly staff. Food interolerances were patiently dealt with and the food, when it came, was fresh and tasty with really lovely ingredients. Overall a really calm, friendly and welcoming experience. Thanks!
We come here regularly and were recommended to do so by a friend. I always have the lamb shank would you so tender and beautifully cooked.
I have special dietary requirements at the moment as I am on a low-carb diet, but they always accommodate and make changes and substitutions for me.
My only comment is that I would like to see healthy desserts such as fruit made available on the menu... the deserts they have are fantastic but have a few too many calories for me.
Our first visit to the Volunteer and we were impressed by the quality of the food and the friendliness of the staff. A good selection of real ales too. We will definitely go again when staying in the area.
We went here for a Sunday lunch before a walk having had good memories of the pub from 6 years ago.
Arrived, had drinks and went to order. The website shows a comprehensive Sunday menu but we were handed a paper menu with very limited options on it and told that that was all there was. We ordered from it. Starters came in middling time and were good.
Mains took an age to come and then not all at once. The overdone roast beefs x 2 came later. No condiments were available. We had to ask. It was getting dark when we'd finished the meal and so we asked for the bill.
They were nice to the dog and gave her a snack.
The new online bill system went through at the same time as another customer who was fortunately astute enough to realise and so they had to spend even longer untangling the amounts.
We came away exhausted. Really nice people but please get it together.
Good food, lovely pub
Great food/ service
Chilly however ... wish the fire had been lit.
A warm welcome with an open fire and excellent service. Menu was varied and the food arrived promptly. Will be back again soon.
We had a great meal and service was really good. I am lactose and gluten intolerant and this wasn't a problem, they were very happy to adapt the menu for me. We will be back.
This was our second visit to the Volunteer. The first was really good and both the service and food excellent. This visit was on New Year's Day. We had booked a table but it took three people ands time to sort this out on arrival. The table given was nicely laid out with extras of crackers and decorations. We had to ask how to order food which was not a good start, as the menu could easily have explained this. It became clear that whilst enthusiastic and polite the staff on duty that day were inexperienced and pretty disorganised. It actually took 53 minutes for our food to be served after ordering. When it came one ,meal was not properly cooked (for which we were offered 50% discount on that dish), whilst it was clear the breads for the two curries had been standing for a long time and just gone hard. It was disappointing as we had booked based on our previous experience. One lesson is never to go on a holiday. The other is to check that the pub really does look at the bookings made on Open Table as even with the email evidence they seemed not to know we had booked.
Lovely place to meet for Sunday. Excellent service, very attentive and charming. Beautiful position in Surrey Hill.
Lovely pub tucked away in rural Abinger Hammer. Its 3rd visit and went sunday lunch and a limited menu compared to other days, but the food is lovely when ever we have visited. Always take dogs, as very dog friendly.
The food was excellent but it was about an hour before it arrived! The staff were pleasant but not well organised. They did apologize profusely for the delay and gave us complimentary deserts as compensation. They promised the deserts would arrive quickly. They didn't. And one came with cream instead of custard!
Fab service, delicious food, cozy pub. An error with the bill which was rapidly corrected. Made a real effort for my friends bday, thanks so much

Death toll of the suicide attack goes over 100 as Koffi Annan calls it most "Apalling"
By Walter Jayawardhana
Sri lanka Aairforce jets bombs Multhivu in retaliation
Colombo, 17 October, (ASiantribune.com):The death toll of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam ( LTTE) suicide bomb attack at Digampathana near Habaran in the North Central Province rose to more than one hundred reports from Anuradhapura, Dambulla, Polonnaruwa, Colombo and Kandy hospitals where very many of the seriously wounded were admitted show.
Issuing a statement from New York Koffi Annan, the Secretary General of the United Nations described the attack as most "appalling."
Immediately after the suicide attack the Sri Lanka government sent its squadron of Kfir jets to bomb a military installation of the LTTE in Mulathivu. A statement said, "Air Force KFIR jets pounded a tiger terrorist base in Puthukuddierippu in the evening hours yesterday (16).
According to intelligence sources, air strikes have completely destroyed the tiger military base.â€
President Mahinda Rajapaksa said that he condemned the heinous crime by the LTTE and expressed his deepest condolences to the family members of the dead.
Defense spokesman Keheliya Rambukwella said that the government would defeat terrorism with the help of the opposition. He also said the peace talks anyway would be definitely be held as scheduled on October 28 and 29 as scheduled.
The LTTE, the world's most sophisticated suicide bomb attacker used one of its male suicide bombers to ram a truck laden with plastic explosives against a convoy of buses taking Sri Lanka navy sailors going home on leave in one of the biggest suicide attacks in Sri Lanka's history.
The suicide bomb attack came one day after the Sri Lanka Navy prevented the LTTE from smuggling in a trawler full of explosives by sinking a a large trawler off the Western coast of Sri Lanka near Mannar.
Atleast another 120 naval soldiers going home unarmed on leave have been injured by the a Tamil suicide bomber who has been described by some as a long haired man with a dark complexion and who drove his white colored explosive laden truck at break neck speed before it struck the convoy of 14 buses. There had been no security barricades preventing any intruding vehicles entering the rendezvous point of the Navy buses, and the suicide truck entered the place without much difficulty.
Diganapathana, is described as a rendezvous point of military buses near Habarana in the Polonnaruwa District used by the navy for a long time, allowing anybody to watch the moving buses for a long time.
The explosion of the suicide truck was so severe the truck laden with plastic explosives used by the suicide bomber has been reduced to ashes with only pieces of iron wheels and rods.
The personal belongings like caps, bags of clothes were strewn all over the places and the buses were partly burnt and still smoking reporters who arrived there from nearby Polonnaruwa said.
Unlikely on previous occasions the Spokesman of the LTTE Irasiah Ilantheriyan did not deny the involvement of the LTTE in the suicide attack. He said the involvement of his group is a probability and he could not give exact details. He said without making inquiries from his group's chain of command in the Eastern Province any exact statement could be made.
Defense Ministry sources said some of the navy personnel injured and killed were people going home from the naval base in Trincomalee and the others are people who were coming for duty from Colombo.
Immediately after the suicide attack, the government filled five buses of the dead and injured and transported them to Dambulla Hospital from where the seriously injured were airlifted to Kurunegala, kandy and Colombo hospitals.
Issuing a statement in New York, the Secretary General of the United Nations Koffi Annan's office said, "The Secretary-General is alarmed by the upsurge of violence in Sri Lanka in the past several months, including today's appalling suicide bombing of a convoy of military buses. The Secretary-General deplores the escalation of violence. "
"The Secretary-General stresses once again that a return to civil war will not resolve the conflict. He calls upon all parties to refrain from the use of force and to return to the negotiation table at the end of this month, as tentatively agreed between the Government of Sri Lanka and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE)."

Off-shoulder or cold-shoulder outfits are very much in vogue. They look great on almost every physique. Even the shyest girls are ready to take the plunge into this style trend. They are comfortable and elegant at the same time, making them the most loved outfit trend. If worn properly with the necessary precautions in place, these outfits can heighten your style quotient to several notches above the ordinary. But, God forbid! If not, they can ruin the entire day for you.
Here are some tips to carry those off-shoulder or cold-shoulder outfits with confidence:
Always pair them with the correct bra: Strapless bras are the most obvious choice for these outfits but there are more options that can help you rock these outfits with equal ease and confidence. For example, an adhesive bra can also work wonders with these outfits or if you are of the shy types, just go for a double strap (the decorative strap types) bra which will make you feel confident with the straps in place and no fear of your bra rolling down, and at the same time enhance your outfit's style.
