According to the SEC and U.S. Department of Justice complaints, Harary and Florida stockbroker "AF," who has since been identified in civil law suits as Anthony Fareri, acquired control of two shell companies and artificially inflated their stock prices using a pre-arranged matched trading scheme. Zemsky identified and purchased the shells: Secure Solutions Holdings (Pink Sheets: SSLX) and

American Financial Holdings (Pink Sheets: AFHJ), which he renamed

Tactical Solution Partners (Pink Sheets: TTSR).

Did Maura Murray and John Regan, who was sent to prison for attempting to abduct a Saratoga Springs NY high school track star, have a common acquaintance? Someone close to SW? Excellent chance. Very excellent chance.

Below from: "The Morality of Embryo Use" by Louis M. Guenin (p6).

Assisted reproduction consists in a suite of procedures for initiating pregnancy by medical intervention. This techique includes In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), a procedure in which gametes are mixed outside the body. An IVF patient first receives daily subcutaneous injections of folicle-stimulating homone, this to induce development of more than the usual one oocyte per month. She undergoes frequent blood tests and is otherwise followed closely by her physician. After weeks of such ovarian stimulation, the physician administers anasthesia, inserts a needle into the ovary, and extacts about a dozen follicles each containing a secondary oocyte. A laboratory technician then attempts fertilization of the oocytes by mixing them with sperm. After embryos form, the clinical embryologist examines the embryos under a microscope and, in consultation with the patient, selects several for intrauterine transfer. The physician performs the intrauterine embryo transfer within a few days after the embryos form. Then the patient waits to see whether she has become pregnant. There will commonly remain surplus embryos, embryos as to which intrauterine transfer has been declined. The clinic will freeze and store these embryos if the patient wishes. Patients regularly revisit the question whether to continue storing surplus embryos. In the aggregate, assisted reproduction produces substantially more embryos than patients want babies.

A little like a puppy mill. The good picks of the litters go to the pet stores. Most of the remaining puppies go to research facilities where they are experimented on.

In Roman civilization, Seneca observed that "we drown the weakling and the monstrosity. It is not passion, but reason, to separate the useless from the fit." (p109)

I mean, suppose you raise dogs for hunting, like some people do, in various places. You raise, or breed, a lot of dogs. A relatively small fraction of the dogs become hunting dogs that you can sell. What do you do with the rest? They get sold for experimentation and testing.

No, no, no, no. Whereever did you get that idea. Those that donīt have enough working ability are sold as pet dogs.

Dogs are experimented on. Period. Where do you think these dogs that are experimented on come from?

You can breed dogs for hunting. You can breed dogs for sale in stores or out of your home or whatever.

But please don't forget that I was making an ANALOGY. To IVF clinics, where the best looking fertilized eggs are implanted and the rest are frozen or used in medical research. I was only (well, not only, if you can read between the lines) making an analogy, trying just to illustrate a point.

Left over fertilized eggs are routinely sold to embryonic stem cell research facilities.

Beagles are one of the most popular dogs in American society today and they've enjoyed that popularity for quite some time. They are happy-go-lucky dogs, always wagging their tails, ready to make friends with whoever they meet. Proper breeding ensures the almost total lack of aggression in the Beagle breed and the easygoing nature that allows them to be great around kids who will jump on them and pull on their ears and tail. Unfortunately for the Beagle, these amiable traits have led to it being used in animal testing; in fact, for the same reasons that Beagles are chosen most often to be used in useful occupations, such as detection of contraband, they are chosen more often than any other breed for testing purposes.

REPEAT: "[Beagles] are chosen more often than any other breed for testing purposes."

Most dogs used in animal testing are actually bred to be scientific "guinea pigs", never having seen the outside world except for being transported from one facility to another; there are specific companies that specialize in breeding animals for testing purposes. The experiments in which Beagles are used are many and varied and include highly important biological research, applied environmental science and human and animal medicine; they have been used in experimental surgical and dental procedures as well as toxicology tests. In the US, they are also used for cosmetic testing while this practice is banned in the European Union. The FDA has also been known to use Beagles in the testing of certain chemical substances and food toxins.

Like testing beagles, left over embryos are used for medical research.

But hunting beagles are very popular in New England, aren't they?("hunting" as an adjective)

Youīre right in that there are certain breeding facilities producing for medical experiments purposes only. The AKC code of ethics prohibits any member to breed or sell dogs for such purposes. Hunting beagles are certainly popular, and as they are almost too cute for their own good, they are quite easily placed as pets. They make good agility dogs too. I doubt beagles of any kind are connected to Mauraīs disappearance though.

I doubt beagles had anything to do with Maura's disappearance. However, she may have been victimized by people in the food science and/or biotech business.

Daily Horoscope for December 10

Pisces

You should have a lucky break today when fate steps in and takes a hand. For instance, a situation may seem to be heading for disaster when you're suddenly bailed out in ways you would never have imagined. However, this doesn't mean you can take foolish risks in the hope that things will work out all right because there's no guaranteeing that they'll do so automatically.
