i dont read much bleach but in the recent chapters i noticed juhabachs sword looks like ichigos sword then he said ichigo was his "son born in the dark"
m i dont think so ... possibly an ancestor tho as we didnt know ichigos mother's origin
I think he said that in the way that he thinks of all the Nazis *cough* quincies as his offspring.
No, he views all Quincies as his son/daughter.
No he is not the reference of son born into darkness refers about juha's story not ichigo.
Morons take things too literally.
The second Juhan said my son i had i flash back to 2001 which was the first time i ever saw star wars and heard the infamous line...Luke, i'm your father!
He ment the son thing metaforicly. We already know that Isshin is Ichigo's father, plus Aizen confuremed it when he said that Ichigo is the son of a shinigami.

How to Peel and Cut a Butternut Squash
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
Recipes often ask us to peel and cube a butternut squash, but actually doing it can be a little puzzling. How does one coax cubes from this wonderfully curvy vegetable? Do we need to deal with the neck differently than the bulbous seed area? And what about the skins and seeds? Read on for a step-by-step guide to breaking down a butternut squash.
What's great about the butternut squash is that it's smooth skin and somewhat elongated shape make it one of the easiest squash to work with. While we peel the squash in this post, please also remember that squash skins are actually quite delicious, especially if you are roasting the squash. (The skins will not work so well if you are planning to make a puree or a pureed soup, however, as they remain crunchy.) And save the seeds, too, if you're up for roasting them!
The most important thing when working with large, hard vegetables is to be sure that you have the right equipment. This basically means grabbing the largest, sharpest knife you own since the weight and length of the knife will be doing a fair amount of work here. A flimsy or dull knife will make your life much harder and can also be dangerous since it can easily slip and cut you.
Your other important tool is a peeler, which should also be as sharp as possible. I recommend looking for peelers that have carbon steel blades as these hold a sharp edge longer than stainless steel. I like simple, cheap "Swiss" peelers. They're usually under $5 each and last a long, long time. I think the one pictured above is well over 5 years old and still going strong even though I use it several times a week. For more information, check out our roundup of our favorite peelers.
Safety is an issue when cutting up roly-poly vegetables. You will need to stabilize the squash with your non-dominate hand using the fingers-tucked-under grip (aka The Claw) to protect your fingers if your knife should slip. This post from Faith offers some good safety tips for cutting hard vegetables and and this post from Emma is also helpful with demonstrating The Claw. Both posts also emphasize that stabilizing your cutting board is an important step. Often this mean placing damp kitchen towel underneath your board to keep it from sliding around.
Finally, unless your kitchen is The French Laundry, don't get too obsessed with cutting every piece into an exact cube. The only way you can possibly achieve this is by discarding the slightly curvy, triangular pieces and that's nothing but a crying-shame waste of good food. The most important thing is that your cubes and triangles be roughly the same size so they'll cook at the same rate.
How To Peel and Cut a Butternut Squash
What You Need
A butternut squash
Cutting board
Large sharp knife
Sharp vegetable peeler
1. Remove the ends. Place your squash on its side and slice off both ends. The safest way to slice into a butternut squash is to stabilize it with your non-dominate hand using the claw (see above) and make an initial cut into the squash to penetrate the skin. Do this with as little pressure as possible — you're not trying to hack though the whole vegetable at this point. Once the knife has made its way through the skin and no longer poses a threat to slip, you can lean heavily into it to complete your cut.
2. Peel. I like to peel my squash at this point. Place the squash on its side and run your peeler along its length. You can peel the length of the squash in long strokes or you can peel it half way up the sides and then turn it and peel the other half.
3. Cut the squash in half at the neck. The neck of the squash and the body will be dealt with slightly differently, so cut the squash where it looks like the neck ends and the body begins to curve out.
4. To cut the neck end. Cut the squash into rings as thick as you want your cubes to be. In other words, if your recipe calls for 1-inch cubes, cut the squash into 1-inch rings. Slice the rings into long rectangles and then into cubes. A few of the end pieces will be more triangular in shape, but that can't be avoided and is actually just fine!
5. To cut the body. Cut the body in half lengthwise, exposing the seeds. Using a spoon, scrape out the seeds and any stringy bits. (Save the seeds if you have ambitions to roast them.) Slice each half into strips and each strip into cubes.

how long do unpeeled butternut squash keep for. They go for a $1 per squash at our farmers market and wanted to buy a few to last me thru the winter.
I really wish I had this info yesterday.. I was peeling a squash (to make the squash/sage recipe listed a while back) w/ a super sharp peeler (from the old guy who sells them at Union Square) when it slipped and sliced deep into the pad of my finger.
It looks gnarly and gross.. but, I gotta say Im super impressed with how sharp the peeler is. In the right hands, that thing is pretty awesome!
i bought my first butternut just a few hours ago. so this info comes in really handy. i guess i'm going to make me some butternut soup tomorrow. yum.
Don't forget you can roast the seeds just like for pumpkin so you'll want to save those.
For most squash, I just use those little tiny saws that are sold around Halloween for pumpkin-carving. I buy them on sale in early November and keep several sizes around. And of course I do use them for pumpkin-carving as well!
Right before I saw this post, I did exactly that while cutting up a butternut squash! I feel like I passed the test!
I found this at http://whatscookingamerica.net/squash.htm.
"Wash and cut squash into small pieces, remove seeds and peel. Cook until soft. Mash pulp or put through sieve.
Cool by placing pan containing squash over crushed ice and stir until cool. Place in an appropriate freeze bag, or container, with 1/2" headspace; freeze."
So, you can freeze, but you gotta cook first.
I know this is silly, but my favorite way to cut a butternut squash is to replace it with the smaller, more approachable delicata squash. But another thing I'll do, depending on the recipe, is halve and steam the squash. Then you end up with a puree you can use in things like pasta sauce.
Just be careful... I peeled and cut up several butternut squashes for a party and the skin on my hands started to (seem to) peel a bit and looked strange for a couple days...
Here's some info: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/299095
It was no big deal but butternut squash is one of those things I now buy pre-peeled & cubed at TJs. More for the convenience than the skin irritation....
I've been cooking Ina Garten's Caramalized Roasted Butternut Squash all winter - this is an incredible recipe!
i strongly endorse the Caramelized butternut Squash recipie above. It is delicious.
Also, try a butternut squash soup with an onion and fresh carrots in it (i make sure to buy those little bunches with the tops on them, it makes a difference). It makes the flavour rounder than just the squash and broth.
You can cook, puree, and then freeze butternut squash too. You could do it in ice-cube trays for controlled amounts, but I do 1-2 cup tubs and use it to thicken chili or soup, or use it in veggie quick-breads (just as you would pumpkin).
@Ta i have that same problem! my skin gets all weird... but it doesn't stop me from cutting them up. i use the same method described here.
@dckittykate i also freeze butternut squash - a lot. it works of you freeze the puree, but you can also freeze chunks of it too. i like to cut into cubes, roast, cool and freeze on sheet pans. then into a zip top when mostly frozen.
they defrost really well to toss into salads, pasta, whatever. we always have a stock on hand in the freezer - my little guy loves it.
I personally love the baked skin. Just bake a good-sized skin-on chunk of butternut squash at 375 until slightly charred...yum!
You can sharpen peelers with blades like that.
Just run it back and forth on the edge of a stone or on a ceramic sharpening wand.
The best advice I received was to microwave butternut squash for a few minutes to soften it a little before slicing it. Use a fork to make a few holes in the squash, place it on a plate, and microwave for 3-5 minutes. When it is cool to the touch, you can peel/slice/chop much more easily and safely than with a hard, uncooked squash. Then, proceed to steam or roast the pieces as you wish.
I agree with @dcirene. I usually microwave it for a few minutes, turning it once halfway. I do this on my way out the door for work, and by the time I get home, it's cooled down and the skin easily comes off. It's much safe and easier than peeling since it does get a bit slimy and slippery. Here's my little how to prep butternut squash visual: http://www.cooksmarts.com/cooking-school-101/ingredient-prep/
To avoid this, I rinse my hands and the squash repeatedly in cold water through the process of peeling and chopping. It works great. I never used to get dry, swollen peeling skin on my hands until lately, guess I am cooking too much b-nut squast!
*squash! oops!
This is a really great how-to article. I think a lot of people skip over this yummy winter squash just because they can't figure out how to peel it. I will definitely save this for the future!
Maria Tadic
I have a lot of trouble peeling and cutting a butternut squash, so I usually microwave it for 4-5 minutes first so it's a little soft.
This is how I do it. Getting off the subject of slicing and cubing...I was taught to buy butternut squash that didn't have any green streaks coming from the stem. Or at least not use it until there gone. Any thoughts on this?
@marilynch, yes, the green streaks indicate it is not fully ripe and sweet yet.
I have given up on trying to make those darn seeds good. It's terribly tedious to free them from their slimy mesh. I've tried various ways to get them buttery and crunchy, and none of them is worth the trouble, I think. I just compost the seeds and skin now.
If you're aiming to freeze cooked squash right from the get-go, I just halve the thing, scoop out the seeds, and lay it flesh-side-down in a baking pan. Add an inch of water. Bake at any temperature for about an hour (I usually do this with another thing in the oven). Allow to cool. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon. My kids (ages 4 and 7) can do this job. Puree it now and freeze it, or freeze it and puree later after it thaws. I use it in any recipe that calls for canned pumpkin.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (May 12, 2012)—Cutting back to his best distance, Drill defeated American Act and two other fellow 3-year-olds to win the $98,000 Lazaro Barrera Memorial Stakes (video) Saturday at Betfair Hollywood Park.
Trained by Hall of Famer Bob Baffert for owners Mike Pegram, Karl Watson and Paul Weitman, the Lawyer Ron colt won for the third time in as many starts at seven furlongs.
A winner of four of six around one turn, Drill, the 6-5 favorite, lifted his earnings $419,710. Out of the Storm Cat mare Cat Dancer, the $300,000 yearling purchase has won four of 11.
Third behind pacesetter American Act and stablemate Gun Boat for most of the trip, Drill and jockey Martin Garcia angled off the rail early in the stretch, then split horses to prevail in the closing yards.
In winning by a half-length, Drill completed the distance over Cushion Track in 1:22.98. He paid $4.40 and $2.80. There was no show wagering.
American Act, who was able to win the Harry Henson Stakes April 26 despite bearing out badly at the quarter pole, returned $3.20 while finishing a half-length in front of Gun Boat. Boompa, the longest shot in the lineup at 7-1, trailed throughout.
This was the second time American Act had been runner-up behind Drill. The two finished a nose apart in the Grade II San Vicente Stakes Feb. 19 at Santa Anita.
"I just talked to Bob on the phone,'' said assistant trainer Mike Marlow. "He thought (Drill) ran well and Gun Boat might need blinkers, he was hanging a little the last eighth of a mile.
"But I think Drill is just a better horse. It's a good thing Gun Boat was the other horse or he might not have let him out (when Drill was seeking room early in the stretch). Drill kind of likes a target, just like he got today.''
The win was the first in the Barrera for both Garcia and Baffert, Three of Drill's wins have come in tandem with Garcia, including the Grade I Del Mar Futurity last Sept. 7.
"I was just trying to save as much ground as I could,'' said Garcia, who won two other races with Baffert-trained runners – Eaton Hall (sixth) and Lady Ten (seventh).
"I wasn't really worried about that other horse (American Act) getting out because he never did that before and I don't know why he did it that day. But whatever happened, I was ready for it.
"(Drill) was really into the bridle today and we were going so easy.''
After winning only once during the first eight days of the Spring/Summer meet, jockey Joel Rosario has gotten warm.
Rosario, who has been the leading rider at both the Spring/Summer and Autumn seasons the last three years, won three times Thursday and bettered that with a four win day Saturday.
Two of Rosario's victories came for trainer Caesar Dominguez – Anna You're Up in the first and 15-1 shot J Louie in the fourth.
Tied for third in the rider standings with Alonso Quinonez, trailing leader Rafael Bejarano (13) and Joe Talamo (11), Rosario also scored with Valkyrie Missile in the second and Clearance Clarence in the fifth.

To perform a search, enter a keyword, phrase or item number in the search field and click "search."
We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
The 2008 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a dark, rich full-bodied wine with great tannic structure and mouth-feel. It has a garnet color and a nose of ripe boysenberries, cherry liqueur, dark chocolate, sandalwood and a hint of roasting meat. On the palate, it is mouth-coating and incredibly rich in umami. It has a very long, savory finish with the slight grip of fine-grained tannins. Given proper cellaring, this wine should give drinking pleasure through 2030.
"Like a savory claret pumped up on performance-enhancing California climate, this is nuanced and relatively austere for all its bold, plummy fruit. The supple richness of tannins lends it textural finesse, the quality of Silver Oak that may be most responsible for its legend. The alcohol is finely integrated so as to be imperceptible. Still youthfully floral, this will age with grace."

"This lovely wine shows the soft tannins and herbaceousness you often find in Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignons. That dried herb taste accompanies blackberry and black currant fruit. It's classic Silver Oak, dry and elegant."

Nearly 93 percent of the milk in the U.S. is below 400,000 somatic cell count (SCC), but none of our international trading partners see that. They see 750,000.
In April, the regulatory body that sets the SCC standard passed on a chance to change the legal limit from 750,000 to 400,000 cells/mL.
The National Conference on Interstate Milk Shipments decision probably won't amount to much here in the U.S., since the dairy industry has already set higher standards for itself. But it could affect international markets.
Quality has improved
"Lower somatic cells are equated to higher quality," says Jamie Jonker, vice-president of scientific and regulatory affairs for the National Milk Producers Federation.
Every dairy producer knows that and most of them have taken steps to improve their milk quality.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture report, "Determining U.S. Milk Quality Using Bulk-tank Somatic Cell Counts, 2011," 92.7 percent of milk produced in the U.S. is below 400,000 cells/mL. If consumers want more quality, they'll find it in U.S. milk with 47.7 percent being at less than 200,000 cells/mL.
The report was released September 2012 and covers the entire year of 2011. A new report for 2012 will come out this September and is likely to show further improvements.
States at the plate
Besides initiatives at the producer and co-op level, several states have been proactive in moving their SCC towards 400,000 while, in turn, supplying the quality that milk buyers want.
Idaho and Washington have already moved the SCC limit to 400,000 for their herds in the past year. Nearby Oregon is trending in that direction with its standard moving to 500,000 last May.
Bob Naerebout, executive director of the Idaho Dairymen's Association, was a part of his state's move towards producing higher-quality milk. He even went before the Idaho State Legislature for approval of the rule.
He said it helped Idaho that their standard was already set at 500,000 in 2010, so the shift to 400,000 was not too drastic for producers.
The move for Idaho was made out of necessity to meet customers' demands both domestically and internationally.
"Idaho does export the vast majority of what we produce in dairy and finished products, if not in the U.S. then on the international market," says Naerebout.
Naerebout believes it is important for the national limit be moved and he is optimistic that will happen within the next few years.

I did my student teaching at William Cramp Elementary School in North Philadelphia. I've learned how to be the best art teacher I can be, to think critically about my work and what it means to me, skills in many different mediums and how to work with many different tools.
My favorite class at Moore was the Fine Arts Studio. Studio is a day when all the Fine Art and Art Education majors in the senior and junior classes meet at the same time to explore ideas and concepts through our art work. Ultimately, the goal of studio is to prepare students for the senior show. The studio class requires critiques so all students get a chance to hear feedback about the art they are creating.

FLASHBACK: 35 Years Ago - Lynyrd Skynyrd's Plane Crashes
Friday, October 19, 2012
It was 35 years ago on Saturday (October 20th, 1977), that a plane carrying Lynyrd Skynyrd crashed in a swamp near Gillsburg, Mississippi. At the time, the group was en route to its next show in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The crash took the lives of lead singer Ronnie Van Zant; guitarist Steve Gaines and his sister, backup singer Cassie Gaines; Lynyrd Skynyrd manager Dean Kilpatrick, as well as the plane's two pilots.
All the other members of the band suffered horrific injuries, from which they eventually recovered. Two years later, survivors Gary Rossington and Allen Collins (guitars), Billy Powell (keyboards) and Leon Wilkeson (bass) formed a new group, the Rossington-Collins Band. A decade after the plane crash, the surviving members of Skynyrd regrouped under the legendary name and played a series of dates to mark the anniversary with Johnnie Van Zant, the younger brother of Ronnie Van Zant, stepping in as his permanent replacement.
Gary Rossington -- who broke both arms, both legs, both wrists, both ankles and his pelvis in the plane crash -- was asked what motivates him and his bandmates to keep the Skynyrd name alive: "Gosh, it's just, y'know, you gotta carry on, and go through it. If you take the lives of just any seven individuals and follow them, tragedy happens, y'know? And it just happened to us. And we just kept carryin' on, we're doin' it for the guys that aren't with us, and for us, and for the music and the name and -- it's what we are."
Recently released was the limited-edition DVD -- Wolfgang's Vault Presents "Day On The Green 1977: Featuring Peter Frampton and Lynyrd Skynyrd." The show, filmed on July 2nd, 1977 was one of several Day on the Green summer festivals presented by the late Bill Graham at Northern California's Oakland Coliseum Stadium. The concert features Skynyrd just three-and-a-half months before the tragic plane crash.
Out now is Lynyrd Skynyrd's latest album, Last Of A Dyin' Breed -- which is their best charting studio set since 1977's Street Survivors collection.
UPDATED: Lynyrd Skynyrd tour dates (subject to change):
October 24 - Clearwater, FL - Ruth Eckerd Hall

Ok, so now I may need to add an additional plug to each bedroom, 3 of them, right now, each bedroom only has one plug..I want it on a different wall. May need to do this for incoming buyers for my house because of the loans they may be getting,,will someone please instruct me on how to do this? Thank you!!
First off, this is really their problem, not yours. While you likely have an older home that does not meet current outlet spacing recommendations, it's not any kind of violation and you situation is grandfathered in as far as any compliance issues are concerned. That said, if they have some weird financing going on and you want to make sure the sale goes through, then you may wish to upgrade to meet their requirements. Just wanted to make it clear that there is no legal reason that you have to do this or take on the expense.
But, if you do go ahead with it, you are going to be locked in to hiring a licensed electrician. You can be darn sure that if their financing package is picky enough to require additional outlets that they will need to see an invoice from a licensed electrician.
So your DIY plan is to pick up the phone and call an electrician. If you have access from below in these three rooms it will not be too difficult and should cost you under $1,000. If there is living space below these rooms then it will get more complicated.
you have even more issues if there is not an arc-fault breaker to the bedroom circuits. and even MORE if you have an old panel that does not have arc-fault breakers availiable, like an FPE or Zinser/Sylvania, both lines also having many other safety issues in the panel itself.
code required that if you touch the circuits, they have to meet current standards. and that means arc-fault breakers.
the costs could skyrocket. arc-fault breakers generally have a white test button on them. if yours don't, I heartily endorse the suggestion that you leave this alone, unless you are really desperate to sell.
sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money?
As the two astute members before me have posted many issues come into play here. Ask around for references of a qualified electrician and list what you will like to have upgraded. He [or she] will then provide a quote listing all upgrades to be performed to meet current codes. Good luck.
Popeye only reached for the Spinach can as a last resort...
Hi guys, thank you so much for your answers! Here is the issue I am facing..if someone gets a USDA loan..I told my realtor, it sounds like they are buying a dozen eggs or something! But anyway, this loan type does not require a downpayment, if there are more than 3 steps, it requires a handrail, which I got rid of when I bought the house because I hated it and it just made the steps narrower..but also if there is any chipping or peeling paint, it must be taken care of, or it requires all rooms to have at least 3 outlets! Stupid! I've been fine with one outlet in the upstairs! Just rearrange the furniture so the TV can be plugged in! But, its a PA government loan, and it sucks..and yes there is living space below...my living room, dining room, kitchen and basement..I just got done getting a new breaker box installed so I wouldn't have to mess with fuses anymore! thanks again! More replies welcomed!!This message has been edited. Last edited by: xsil11,
I was curious about this type of USDA loan, which I thought would probably be for farmland or rural area. I found some info, none of which is copyable, but I did learn that existing houses financed pursuant to this section must meet the state "voluntary national model building code" and "HCFP site and thermal standards", whatever those are.
So that must be the source for the requirements that the OP must meet.
Section 502 USDA loans
Given the "nit-picky" requirements, I would support what others wrote and hire an electrician; otherwise you could get into issues with the PA lending authority, especially if you did the work yourself and there were questions as to whether ir was properly done, safe, etc. Government-sponsored loans can be very specific in their requirements. PA may even have a list of approved electricians who know how to meet the loan standards. You might want to ask your realtor to have the borrower's realtor check with the PA lending office for electricians who've done this work and get one of them. Might save you some grief in the long run.
You might also want to find out for sure that the borrower is qualified under the defined qualification standards so that you don't make the modifications and later learn the borrower didn't meet the specific income standards.This message has been edited. Last edited by: GardenSprite,
I have dealt with some of these types of loans in the past (there is a thing out there called a 203K remodeling loan). they have many restrictions and requirements - to the point that if we are dealing with a homeowner who plans to finance through a 203K or similar loan process, we politely decline the job and walk away.
I'll admit to being biased - I do not like stupid.
As I said in my first post - this is not your problem, this is a problem for the potential buyer. If this is the type of financing they have chosen then it should be up to them to pay the extra costs associated with this financing plan. This is even more true considering that it appears that the "required" modifications could easily cost you several thousands of dollars.
So, if all these changes have to be made before the financing goes through then you need to adjust your price upwards to cover the additional costs. After all, there is no legal reason for you to make these changes, there is no code requirement that would force you to make these changes. The only reason that these potentially expensive changes are even on the table is at the request of the potential buyer via their choice of financing. Anyone using conventional financing would not have these requirements.
The only reason that you should even be considering doing these modifications is if you desperately need to sell. If you consider the cost to you if you sell to these people using a USDA restrictive loan, you could likely move the house just as fast if you dropped the cost by the estimated cost of the changes.
Further thoughts after reading all the responses again:
Have you signed the purchase agreement, and if so was it contingent on you making these changes? I.e., is the obligation on you, or are you interpreting, without legal mandate, that it's your responsibility?
Was it also contingent on the purchaser's obtaining satisfactory financing, or was it specifically geared to the Section 502 financing?
If as Jaybee points out, you are really desperate to sell, and if you haven't signed a purchase agreement, you could make a counter offer requiring the purchasers to pay for all the changes required for this financing.
I think that's only fair, as you wouldn't be making them otherwise.
Another issue to explore is the time frame for processing of the financing. These government loans typically take a lot longer than commercial loans. If you're not locked into a purchase agreement, you might be able to find a qualified purchaser who doesn't need government assistance, in the time it would take for the 502 financing to be finalized.
Something else to remember: this buyer doesn't have to make a down payment, so he/she/they aren't ponying up this money up front. Maybe they have the resources to make the mandated changes, maybe they don't. That's why I mentioned ensuring that they meet the qualifications.
They're getting this kind of financing for reasons which more than likely benefit them but not you.This message has been edited. Last edited by: GardenSprite,
Dealing with a federal agency is a real treat for sure. We did one job in the past tied to a USDA loan as I can recall. Never knew it even existed before that.
As Jaybee mentioned how odd those upgrades required are though. Seconding the thoughts mainly because no electrical code I know of requires a specified number of outlets per room upgrade, unless the walls are opened up, of course. And throwing out a number [3 per room] is arbitrary at best mainly because NEC guidelines for a bedroom must follow those specs quoted in the electrical code.
Now do federal agencies require this? HUD does for sure, as we having doing work for them {via county agencies} for years now. Even homeowners insurance companies will require certain upgrades. Say as in minimum of 100 amp services, GFCIs where needed, deadening K & T wiring, etc. But this is safety related, not a convenience issue.
What ever you decide, good luck.This message has been edited. Last edited by: CommonwealthSparky,

Thank you again to everyone! Just to let you all know, NO I am in no hurry to sell to do these "required" upgrades for this type of loan! this is ridiculous! And I did make a mistake, its not 3 outlets required, it's two..but still..
And No, no purchase agreement has been signed for this house..as soon as I saw what the buyer wanted, I said forget it, and countered it with my own..
I am very aware that the buyer most likely cannot afford all these costs, so as I see it, its their problem, not mine...I am patient, I can hold out to the bitter end and just wait for someone else to come up with a regular loan, not put up with this crap..as I told my realtor, who thought this was a good offer and I will probably be getting alot of offers from people in the same boat...THIS IS NOT A GOOD OFFER AND IF YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO ME IN THE FIRST PLACE, YOU WOULD KNOW THIS IS NOT A GOOD OFFER! But I am willing to come down some and possibly pay SOME closing costs, like $1000, but no more than that!
I realize I am not obligated to pay for all of these changes just because they want this type of loan..that is why I am willing to wait until someone has a regular type of loan, so I do not have to be made to do upgrades. I have the other house to think about, which I am paying cash for from the proceeds from this house, and I have all of those closing costs! Why make me pay for these too? is another thing I told my realtor..
But thanks so much again guys, and I will hold out for the right offer that is right for me. I do really appreciate your help! And by the way, I did sign a purchase agreement for my next home which had been up for sale for a year, and I put a deposit on it, so no one seems to be in a hurry to purchase that house, so that is why I can be patient and hold out for the right buyer for my house. I forgot to mention that my house is in a rural area..still..I will hold out for someone else! Thanks again!This message has been edited. Last edited by: xsil11,
First, Just make sure that any time framework on the house you're purchasing doesn't pass; typically there are time limits in the purchase agreement specifying the deadline for closing.
If you have to, and given that your seller apparently had no other viable offers, explain the situation and prepare a Rider to the purchase agreement to address the time deadline, so you don't lose your deposit. And if you're on good terms, it wouldn't hurt to apprise him/her of your efforts so there are no misunderstandings.
Secondly, I wonder if your realtor realizes that he/she is working for you? If not, when the listing expires you might want to consider someone else.
Third, I'm glad you're not locked into selling your house to the purchaser who needs the USDA loan. If you eventually do need to retain another realtor, it wouldn't hurt to raise this issue and find out if USDA loans are truly that common in your area. I'm sure there's some database to which realtors have access which lists mortgagees of homes for existing families in certain areas.
Glad you've decided on a position that's good for you.This message has been edited. Last edited by: GardenSprite,
I am very glad to hear that this is your situation and decision. Like I said before - I don't like stupid. There is no reason for you to pay for unneeded 'requirements'.
Good luck with the sale, hopefully someone with realistic financing will come along soon.
And to second GardenSprites comments on your realtor: If they think this is a good deal then they are looking for their commission, not really working their best for you.
Realtors belong in that category alone with bankers, lawyers, hucksters selling items on TV when you get the second one free [except for paying double for shipping] and track side hobos. Sorry, hobos are a cut above the lot of them. I too would shop around as this realtor is more worried about the sale commission than he or she is about you.
Just my two wheat pennies worth.This message has been edited. Last edited by: CommonwealthSparky,

I think bankers are in a class all their own, especially those in positions of power at the Too Big to Fail banks.
this offer came in at the end of the month? perhaps the house has been on the listing for several months and the agent felt pressured?
it is nice to get everything you want for a bargain price. it is not always in a seller's interest to lose money on a sale. that's why it's called "bargaining." and if everybody's not happy, walking away is also a good option if you have it.
if you recently replaced the service panel without a red tag on the door, I suspect this is not a dog needing tens of thousands of maintenance. all houses have hidden "features" which in another universe (the buyers') are called "flaws."
mortgage money has become tight, and lenders want everything perfect these days. oh, the delayed maintenance we had to put in the folks' house when we had to estate-sale it. lot of long weekends working like dogs, with "hey, we got a looker, can we show this afternoon?" in the middle of several sessions.
you do what you can. good luck.
sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money?
Thanks again everybody for the comments!! First I want to say, I wanted to sell my house myself, but went with this realtor, only because she is a "friend" and is the one who helped me "buy" this house..my realtor then, I just figured I'd give her the chance to sell it again..plus figured she'd bring in the traffic..whatever..Second, Garden Sprite, the house I am purchasing, has been up for sale for over a year..and the realtor who has it says the time frame can be added to,,taken away,,etc..if worse comes to worse, I will probably not lose my deposit..and I do keep her apprised of what is going on, she thinks my situation is ridiculous too..if I do have to get another realtor, I will definitely!! Jaybee, I HATE STUPID TOO!! haha!! and tho my realtor says she is working for me..I wonder also!! She is just in it for the commission!! Commonwealth Sparky,,totally true with the catagories!! I agree wholeheartedly! swschrad, yes, the offer came in at the end of the month..my house has only been listed for a few weeks..took off like wildfire..only with bumbling idiots coming thru and showing, lost my respect for all of them immediately! I told my realtor the other day, that I insist on being here when the house is shown, due to things that have happened, while me not being here, and not following the instructions they are supposed to follow..locked doors, broken locks on doors etc..her reply was, "well the house might not be shown that often then" I told her, thats too bad..you can tell them the reasons I listed, and if that is a problem, then U (the realtor) will have to be here to make sure it goes accordingly..I did not get a response from her, so oh well,,too bad! The way I see it, its my house, my money, my plans will not be ruined by anyone who does not care enough to do things properly! and No swschrad,there is no red tag on the panel..the way I see it, I have fixed this house up, spent alot of money fixing it up, and will eventually get what I need out of it, like I said, I am patient, I can hold out for the right person with the right offer! Thanks again everyone!! I will keep you all posted on what happens!!
Not to beat the issue to death, but I would be more comfortable with "definitely not losing a deposit" than "probably not."
I've found many realtors to be overbearing, thinking they're a combination of real estate agent, banker and lawyer all rolled into one. While I would rely on them for some aspects of real estate advice, I would not rely on them for legal advice on the possibility of losing a deposit.
I don't know if oral modifications are binding to written contracts, so that's another factor.
When I bought my house, my realtor was someone who I thought was good, but it turned out that she was quite stubborn in insisting she knew more than I did about legal descriptions. I sketched out the lot from the description, and it didn't match the square footage of the lot as listed.
She insisted I was wrong; I had worked in real estate law firms and knew something was amiss. After much disagreement and some arguing, she finally addressed the issue and we learned the sellers had acquired the property in two separate transactions, so there was another deed and legal description which hadn't been included in the purchase agreement and title work.
Had I not been persistent, I would have purchased the house and only part of the property, and the sellers would have retained title to a landlocked, inaccessible piece of what should have been included in the purchase price and the deed to me.
Don't let your realtor tell you what probably or probably won't happen when it comes to a deposit!
Thanks GardenSprite! sounds like ur talking about the realtor I have for my house!! haha..but I have an "out" for the house I am buying..so I can definitely get my deposit back if worse comes to worse...I appreciate your advice!! Thanks again!!
Good! Just want to make sure you're legally protected.
Good luck with selling your house.

Tax Telegraph, March 2013
Bills introduced: The following Bills have been introduced into the House of Representatives:
Tax and Superannuation Laws Amendment (2013 Measures No. 1) Bill 2013
This Bill contains proposed measures which:
- Introduce the loss carry-back provisions, which will allow corporate tax entities the choice of carrying back all or part of a tax loss from the current income year, or from the preceding income year, against an unutilised income tax liability for either of the two years before the current year. The measure applies to assessments for the 2012-13 and later income years. A transitional carry-back period of only one year applies for the 2012-13 income year
- Correct a number of minor technical errors in the drafting of the minerals resource rent tax and petroleum resource rent tax legislation
- Ensure that income tax is generally not payable on interest paid by the Commonwealth on unclaimed money from 1 July 2013
- Align the special rules for calculating airline transport fringe benefits with the in-house property fringe benefits and in-house residual fringe benefits provisions
- Allow participants the choice to make payments derived under the Sustainable Rural Water Use and Infrastructure Program tax-free, with related expenditure being non-deductible
- Prescribe requirements for acquisitions and disposals of certain assets between self-managed superannuation funds (SMSF) and related parties.
This Bill was referred to the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services on 14 February 2013.
Tax Laws Amendment (Countering Tax Avoidance and Multinational Profit Shifting) Bill 2013
This Bill proposes amendments to:
- Part IVA: To ensure the effective operation of Part IVA by:
- Distinguishing the 'would have' and 'might reasonably be expected to have' limbs of each of the subsection 177C(1) paragraphs so they represent alternative bases upon which the existence of a tax benefit can be demonstrated
- Ensuring that, when obtaining a tax benefit depends on the 'would have' limb of one of the paragraphs in subsection 177C(1), that conclusion must be based solely on a postulate that comprises all of the events or circumstances that actually happened or existed other than those forming part of the scheme (the "annihilation approach")
- Ensuring that, when obtaining a tax benefit depends on the 'might reasonably be expected to have' limb of one of the paragraphs in subsection 177C(1), that conclusion must be based on a postulate that is a reasonable alternative to the scheme, having particular regard to the substance of the scheme and its effect for the taxpayer, but disregarding any potential tax costs (" the reconstruction approach"); and
- Requiring the application of Part IVA to start with a consideration of whether a person participated in the scheme for the sole or dominant purpose of securing for the taxpayer a particular tax benefit in connection with the scheme.
- Distinguishing the 'would have' and 'might reasonably be expected to have' limbs of each of the subsection 177C(1) paragraphs so they represent alternative bases upon which the existence of a tax benefit can be demonstrated
- Transfer pricing: To provide that transfer pricing rules apply to both tax treaty and non-tax treaty cases to ensure greater alignment between outcomes for international arrangements involving Australia and another jurisdiction irrespective of whether the other jurisdiction forms part of Australia's treaty network.
This Bill was referred to the House Standing Committee on Economics on 14 February 2013.
Exposure draft (ED) regulation released:
Tax certainty for deceased estates
Treasury has released an ED regulation and explanatory material to provide tax certainty to beneficiaries of deceased estates. The amendments address uncertainty caused by TR 2011/D3 as to the eligibility for a tax exemption on investment earnings derived by superannuation funds from assets supporting pensions following the death of a member. Specifically, the measure will expand the definition of 'superannuation income stream benefit' in the Income Tax Assessment Regulations 1997 for the purposes of the earnings tax exemption.

THIS WEEK IN WHITENESS: Shaken Bottles (1-04-12)
1 April, 2012
Although gags abound in celebration of April Fool's day, the compilation of headlines today are no laughing matter.
Before we start, we'd like to highlight a headline from last week:
Last week in whiteness, Canada's Supreme Court took a surprising but excellent turn for the better when it solidified legislation that would work in favor of indigenous Canadian Indians facing convictions. Judge Louis LeBel was quoted as saying:
"When sentencing an aboriginal offender, courts must take judicial notice of such matters as the history of colonialism, displacement, and residential schools and how that history continues to translate into lower educational attainment, lower incomes, higher unemployment, higher rates of substance abuse and suicide, and, of course, higher levels of incarceration for aboriginal peoples," he said.
For more, check out the report at the Globe and Mail. Thank you to BiscuitMunroe for forwarding the info!
And now for this week's news:
Rick Santorum and the Government Negotiator
During a recorded event in Janesville, Wisconsin, presidential hopeful Rick Santorum stopped himself from calling President Barack Obama a "nigger" during his speech, which is available here. "It has been suggested he was trying to say "-nik", as in peacenik or beatnik," the Guardian's Paul Harris writes. "That is possible. Or perhaps, it was some non-specific verbal tic: a random vowel-consonent flub."
Here, Santorum has previous form. In Iowa, he stumbled when discussing conservative opposition to welfare programmes:
"I don't want to make black people's lives better by giving them somebody else's money; I want to give them the opportunity to go out and earn the money."
In the face of later outrage at singling out black Americans, he insisted that he had not said "black", but instead vocalised "bleugh", as his mind became confused over his own train of thought. Full article available here.
We at This Week in Whiteness have always believed that Santorum's rather frothy brand of racism would eventually slip out in a blatant way.
Smear Campaign Against Trayvon Martin Continues
To add to the many problematic elements surrounding the open case of Trayvon Martin, the Sanford Police Department released video footage from George Zimmerman's visit to the police station shortly after murdering Trayvon Martin. While Zimmerman's lawyer claimed that Martin had broken Zimmerman's nose, the footage shows that Zimmerman was not bloodied, nor showed any signs of injury. ABC reported gaining access to the footage on Wednesday.
There is, unfortunately, more. A white supremacist recently hacked into Trayvon Martin's email and social media accounts in an attempt to prove that Trayvon Martin was a thug, and was seen gloating about doing so on 4Chan. Gawker's Adrian Chen reports:
A screenshot of Trayvon's Gmail inbox our source provided us is heartbreaking. Martin apparently used his Gmail account for his college search, and it's filled with emails about upcoming SAT tests and scholarship applications. ("Trayvon, now is the best time to take the SATs!") One email included the results of a career aptitude test, our source said. It "talked about his interest in aeronautics and stuff."
The Huffington Post has more details available here.
Update: Chicago Residents Demand Justice for Rekia Boyd
On Tuesday, Chicago residents held a rally demanding justice for Rekia Boyd, the young woman who was killed by an off-duty cop while socializing with friends near Douglas Park. The Black Youth Project reports:
Around 1 am last Wednesday, an off-duty officer approached a group of people in his car and asked that they quiet down. One of the individuals, 39 year-old Anthony Cross, approached the officer. Thinking he was holding a gun, the officer open-fired, striking Cross in the hand and (inadvertently) RekiaBoyd in the head. Rekia died later that afternoon. Full article available here.
About 200 protesters gathered in front of the officer's home. For footage, visit The Huffington Post's recap of the event.
Liar, Liar, Comic on Fire
Amid a flurry of criticisms,the University of Texas (Austin)'s school newspaper pulled an incendiary comic that suggested murdered teenager Trayvon Martin's innocence was a lie. The image, drawn by now former employee Stephanie Eisner, appeared in theTexan's Opinion section on Tuesday. By Wednesday evening, the newspaper issued multiple statements, including one from the cartoonist herself:
"I apologize for what was in hindsight an ambiguous cartoon related to the Trayvon Martin shooting. I intended to contribute thoughtful commentary on the media coverage of the incident, however this goal fell flat. I would like to make it explicitly clear that I am not a racist, and that I am personally appalled by the killing of Trayvon Martin. I regret any pain the wording or message of my cartoon may have caused."
The cartoon and several updates are available here at The Daily Post.
Black Parents Murdered For Asking Man Not to Shoot
Raeford, NC resident John Oliver Hill, Jr. was shooting his gun outside and near the home of Thalia Rebecca Mook and Tommy Brown this past weekend. Brown had been outside with his and Mook's children when Brown asked Hill to stop firing his gun, expressing concern for the children in the area. Hill responded by shooting Brown in the head, then Thalia Mook when she came outside. Their three children were present for the shooting. Extra details are available at ABC.
Black College Student Killed By Cops
In yet another case of "we thought his wallet was a gun," young college student Kendrec McDade was killed by police officers after Pasadena, CA resident Oscar Carillo called 911 reporting being robbed at gunpoint by two Black teens. The police stated that they were set in looking for someone with McDade's description and, after cornering him, shot him multiple times from their patrol vehicle as he reached for his waistband. He was unarmed, and no stolen goods were in his possession. For more info on the case, check out this article at the Pasadena Star News.
White Woman Stands Her Ground, Attacks Black Teenager
We will offer two accounts of what happened without comment:
Here is a citizen reporter's account; here is the report that we managed to find on MSNBC.
We at This Week in Whiteness want to take a moment to reflect upon whiteness and the concept of belonging. All of these events have occurred because a person of color was somewhere they didn't "belong," even in their own neighborhoods. While history books will help one conclude that people are willing to defend their spaces to the death - of themselves, but preferably others - what does that say about white spaces in the 21st century? And what happens when white spaces expand to include almost ever pocket of the country?
The answer is that we have an open season on people of color - and while POC have always been under attack, those who aim and fire feel significantly more comfortable acting violently in broad daylight. Trayvon Martin's death has triggered the shaking of a bottle of emotions. What will become of us, then, when the cork pops from the pressure?
Stay Vigilant,
This Week in Whiteness

Josef Koudelka: Nationality Doubtful
November 11, 2014–March 22, 2015
After photographing theatrical productions in Prague and Roma settlement camps across Eastern Europe, Josef Koudelka (born 1938) risked his life and career to document the 1968 Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia. His images of the event, smuggled into the West and reproduced worldwide, forced his exile. This exhibition—the first U.S. retrospective devoted to Koudelka since 1988—presents more than 180 works produced over six decades by this legendary photographer, including early photographic experiments, vintage Gypsies book prints and maquettes, and a selection of large-scale panoramas that he has made since 1986.
This exhibition was co-organized by the J. Paul Getty Museum and the Art Institute of Chicago.
World War I: War of Images, Images of War
November 18, 2014–April 19, 2015
World War I: War of Images, Images of War examines the art and visual culture of the First World War—a conflict of unprecedented mechanized slaughter as well as a struggle over the cultural dominance and direction of Europe. The exhibition juxtaposes the representation of the war in visual propaganda with its depiction by artists who experienced the brutality firsthand. Drawing principally from the Getty Research Institute's special collections, the exhibition features a range of satirical journals, prints, posters, and photographs as well as accounts from the front, including a war diary, correspondence, and "trench art" made by soldiers. Through such archival and graphic material, World War I: War of Images, Images of War captures the trauma of this first modern war.
Give and Ye Shall Receive: Gift Giving in the Middle Ages
December 16, 2014–March 15, 2015
In the Middle Ages, gift exchange helped people define their relationships to family and friends, to acquaintances and strangers, to God and to church. This exhibition, drawn from the Museum's permanent collection, examines models for giving found in scripture and in the lives of the saints, explores how gift giving functioned in medieval society, and highlights the special role of the medieval book as a gift.
In Focus: Play
December 23, 2014–May 10, 2015
The introduction of photography in 1839 coincided with major social and economic changes spurred by the Industrial Revolution and a burgeoning culture of leisure. In addition to documenting historic events, this new medium was used to record the everyday, including the many ways people spent their free time. With the advent of faster film and handheld cameras, dancing and carousing were captured with the same enthusiasm as moments of respite and quiet contemplation. This exhibition traces the development of play as a photographic subject through the works of artists such as Eugène Atget, Roger Fenton, Lauren Greenfield, Bill Owens, and Larry Sultan among others.
Zeitgeist: Art in the Germanic World, 1800–1900
February 10–May 17, 2015
Between 1800 and 1900 the Germanic world underwent profound intellectual, social, economic, and political changes. The Industrial Revolution, the formal unification of Germany into a nation state, and the invention of psychoanalysis shaped modern life and its representations in art. This exhibition—which includes the works of Caspar David Friedrich (1774–1840), Philipp Otto Runge (1777–1810), and Gustav Klimt (1862–1918)—brings together paintings, drawings, and prints from the J. Paul Getty Museum, the Getty Research Institute, and distinguished local private collections to examine this pivotal moment in Germanic history.
J. M. W. Turner: Painting Set Free
February 24–May 24, 2015
Extraordinarily inventive and enduringly influential, J. M. W. Turner (1775–1851) produced his most important and famous pictures after the age of sixty, in the last fifteen years of his life. Demonstrating ongoing radicalism of technique and ever-original subject matter, these works show Turner constantly challenging his contemporaries while remaining keenly aware of the market for his art. Bringing together over sixty key oil paintings and watercolors, this major international loan exhibition is the first to focus on the unfettered creativity of Turner's final years.
The exhibition was organized by Tate Britain, in association with the J. Paul Getty Museum and the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.
Renaissance Splendors of the Northern Italian Courts
March 31–June 21, 2015
The Renaissance courts of northern Italy, among the wealthiest and most sophisticated in Europe, attracted innovative artists who created objects of remarkable beauty. Princes and other nobles offered painters and illuminators favorable contracts and social prestige in return for lavishly decorated panels and books. These works prominently displayed their owners' scholarly learning, religious devotion, and elite status. Drawn from the Getty Museum's permanent collection of manuscripts, this exhibition celebrates the magnificent illuminations that emerged from this courtly context—an array of visual riches fit for the highest-ranking members of Renaissance society.
Light, Paper, Process: Reinventing Photography
April 14–September 6, 2015
At a time when digital technologies offer increasingly sophisticated options for producing, storing, and disseminating images, a number of artists have turned their attention to exploring the essence of photography, distilling it to its basic components of light-sensitive emulsions and chemical development. These artists may use hand-coated or expired papers, archival negatives, or custom-built cameras, or they may eschew the use of a camera or film altogether. All employ a variety of darkroom techniques that shift our understanding of photography from a medium that accurately records the world to one that revels in the medium's materials and process.
In Focus: Animalia
May 26–October 18, 2015
Photographs of animals have circulated since the early history of the medium, initially focusing on those that were tame, captive, or dead. Advancements in camera and film technologies enabled precise recordings of beasts in motion and, eventually, in their natural habitats. Spanning the history of photography, this exhibition examines the expanding tradition of animal representation through the works of artists such as Horatio Ross, William Henry Jackson, Alfred Stieglitz, Frederick Sommer, William Wegman, Pieter Hugo, and Taryn Simon.
The Renaissance Workshop in Action: Andrea del Sarto
June 23–September 13, 2015
This major loan exhibition celebrates the transformation of the art of drawing by Andrea del Sarto (1486–1530), one of the greatest Florentine Renaissance artists. Moving beyond the graceful harmony and elegance of his elders and peers, such as Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, and Fra Bartolommeo, Sarto brought unprecedented realism and immediacy to his art through the rough and rustic use of red chalk and the creation of powerful life and compositional studies. Comprising rare drawings and panel paintings from key international collections, the exhibition fully illuminates Andrea del Sarto's inventiveness, creative process, and workshop practice.
The exhibition was co-organized by the J. Paul Getty Museum and the Frick Collection, New York.
The Getty Villa
Ancient Luxury and the Roman Silver Treasure from Berthouville
November 19, 2014–August 17, 2015
Accidentally discovered by a French farmer in 1830, the spectacular hoard of gilt-silver statuettes and vessels known as the Berthouville Treasure was originally dedicated to the Gallo-Roman god Mercury. Following four years of meticulous conservation and research at the Getty Villa, this exhibition allows viewers to appreciate their full splendor and offers new insights about ancient art, technology, religion, and cultural interaction. The opulent cache is presented in its entirety for the first time outside Paris, together with precious gems, jewelry, and other Roman luxury objects from the royal collections of the Cabinet des médailles at the Bibliothèque nationale de France.
Dangerous Perfection: Funerary Vases from Southern Italy
November 19, 2014–May 11, 2015
Thirteen elaborately decorated Apulian vases provide a rich opportunity to examine the funerary customs of peoples native to southern Italy and the ways they used Greek myth to comprehend death and the afterlife. Displayed following a six-year conservation project at the Antikensammlung Berlin and the Getty Villa, these monumental vessels also reveal the hand of Raffaele Gargiulo, one of the leading restorers of nineteenth-century Naples. His work exemplifies what one concerned antiquarian described as "dangerous perfection," and the vases on view offer a window into the ongoing debate concerning the degree to which ancient artworks should be repaired and repainted.

text: Riding The Tiger "I discovered that being a President is like riding a tiger. A man has to keep on riding or be swallowed." Harry S. Truman Posted March 4, 2013 By Carah Ong This Day in History: Reagan Addresses the Nation on Iran-Contra President Ronald Reagan Addresses the Nation on Iran-Contra, March 4, 1987 In a March 4, 1987 broadcast, President Ronald Reagan addressed the American people from the Oval Office, promising to tell the nation the truth regarding the Iran-Contra scandal, and admitting he had made mistakes. Reagan told the nation: A few months ago I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions still tell me that's true, but the facts and the evidence tell me it is not. As the Tower board reported, what began as a strategic opening to Iran deteriorated, in its implementation, into trading arms for hostages. In the address, Regan also promised to go beyond the recommendations of the Tower Commission's recommendations by taking action in three basic areas: personnel, national security policy, and the process for making sure that the system works. Various inquiries into the affair had revealed lax management and enormous detachment on Reagan's part, as well as appalling conduct by members of the National Security Council staff. The president announced new national security personnel, including former Senator Howard Baker as Chief of Staff, Frank Carlucci as national security adviser, and William Webster as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. He also announced a comprehensive review of covert operations and new processes to ensure the integrity of future national security decisions. The Iran-Contra Affair actually involved two separate initiatives. The first was the clandestine sale of U.S. military equipment to Iran, which had the support of the Israeli government, in contradiction of the Reagan administration's public policy of remaining neutral in the Iran-Iraq War. In exchange for the arms sales, American hostages being held by terrorists in Lebanon were released. The second was the attempt by a small group of National Security Council staff members and former military men to funnel proceeds from the sale of these weapons to the Contra rebels opposing the Nicaraguan government. While President Reagan attached great importance during this period to the success of the contra effort, he insisted he had no knowledge of the diversion of funds to the Contras. However, he wrote in his diary and eventually acknowledged to the American people that he authorized the Iran arms sales. Read more → Foreign Policy Iran Ronald Reagan Miller Center Resources Tweet
