Detailed Cruise Review of Clipper Cruise Line

Clipper Cruise line was voted for 3 consecutive years by the readers of Travel + Leisure magazine as the top small ship cruise line category.

One of its ship, the Clipper Odyssey was highlighted by Frommers as one of the best small ships in Alaska, beating other smalls ships vying in the same category.

Clipper ships are small and conservative. It?s never about the ship but more about the places that this small ship can carry you to ? which the large cruise ships are unable to.

Clippers cruises are never the cuisines or party kind of cruise ships. With Clipper, you are seeking adventure, being closer to nature and getting away from the usual happenings onboard a normal cruise ship.

Being small (passenger capacity is at most 128, length of ship is 338 feet), its itineraries covers trips to small out-of-the-way ports, offering an educational opportunity to those who love to get close to mother nature. Renowned lecturers are onboard Clipper Cruise ships to give detailed descriptions of the wildlife and flora and fauna.

Clipper Cruises?s tops itineraries to Antarctica and Panama Canals are frequently sold out months in advance.

If you are keen to book a Clipper cruise, do so early well ahead of time as bookings run fast. For more information, try Clipper Cruise Line (tel. 800/325-0010 or 314/727-2929; www.clippercruise.com).

For the first time, scientists can see pathways to stop a deadly brain cancer in its tracks. Researchers at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine have imaged individual cancer cells and the routes they travel as the tumor spreads.

The researchers used a novel cryo-imaging technique to obtain the unprecedented look at a mouse model of glioblastoma multiforme, a particularly aggressive cancer that has no treatments to stop it from spreading.

A description of their work, and images, will be published Sept. 1 in the journal Cancer Research.

"We're able to see things we couldn't before, and we can use these images to understand how tumor cells invade and disperse," said Susann M. Brady-Kalnay, a professor of molecular biology and microbiology at the Case Western Reserve School of Medicine, and senior author of the paper.

That information, in turn, can be used to help develop and test the effectiveness of drugs and other therapies used to treat the cancer, she said.

To obtain the view, the scientists used a model that included four different cell lines of brain cancers at various stages of tumor development and dispersion. The cancer cells were modified with fluorescent markers and implanted in the model's brain in collaboration with Biomedical Engineering Professor James Basilion's lab.

The cryo-imaging system, developed by David Wilson, also a professor of biomedical engineering at Case Western Reserve, disassembles the brain layer by layer and reassembles the model into a color three-dimensional digital image.

Using software and algorithms designed by the researchers, they are able to differentiate the main tumor mass, the blood vessels that feed the cancer and dispersing cells. The imaging system enables them to peer at single cells and see exactly where they are in the brain.

The lead researchers, Susan Burden-Gulley, Mohammed Qutaish and Kristin Sullivant, found that two cell lines, a human brain cancer LN229, and a rodent cancer CNS-1, best resemble the actions of glioblastoma multiforme in human patients.

Reconstructions of models of those two lines enabled the researchers to analyze the extent and patterns of cancer cell migration and dispersal from tumors along blood vessels and white matter tracts within the brain.

The ability to produce such clear and detailed images, the researchers say, will be invaluable when evaluating the potency of drugs and other therapies designed to block dispersal of glioblastoma multiforme cells.

From bacteria to humans, all forms of life are based on the capacity of one cell to divide into two or more identical daughter cells. In doing so, cells have to produce a copy of their genetic material (DNA) and separate it into two identical sets, one for each daughter cell. Immediately after duplication and before its segregation, DNA is packed in chromosomes that consist of two identical strands joined at a point along their length, called centromeres. Centromeres ensure accurate separation of the chromosomes between daughter cells by directing the assembly of the molecular scaffolding that helps separate cells. The group of scientists led by the IBMB-CSIC Professor and IRB Barcelona researcher Ferran Azor?n has identified the main instrument that Drosophila cells use to control the levels of the CenH3 protein, a key element for defining the identity and function of the centromere in the fruit fly.

CenH3 is a unique variant of conventional histones ?proteins responsible for DNA packaging? found exclusively in the centromeres of all eukaryotes studied to date. "The presence of CenH3 in chromosome regions other than the centromere is sufficient to cause defects in chromosome separation in Drosophila and in budding yeast", explains Azor?n. In yeast and Drosophila, the controlled degradation of CenH3 is known to be one of the mechanisms that regulate its location in the centromere. How this mechanism works, however, has been a mystery until now. The study, led by Azor?n and published online on August 25 in Current Biology, shows that CenH3 interacts specifically with the protein partner of pair (Ppa), involved in directing proteins toward degradation. "We have demonstrated that degradation of CenH3 is essential for limiting its presence at the centromeres and that this degradation is mediated by the protein Ppa, which targets CenH3 to one of the cell's degradation mechanisms, the proteasome", explains Azor?n. The proteasome is a barrel-shape protein structure that breaks down and disposes of unfunctional or unnecessary proteins in the cell. When a protein has to be degraded it needs to be somehow 'tagged' for degradation so it can be detected efficiently and directed to the proteasome. Ppa is part of a 'degradation labelling complex' that marks proteins such as CenH3 with a molecule called ubiquitin for destruction in the proteasome.

"The split between insects and humans during evolution must have occurred about 5 hundred millions years ago. However, most of the molecular components of the centromere have remained practically unchanged in all eukaryotic organisms: CenH3, for example is found in all eukaryotic centromeres", says Azor?n. In Drosophila and also in humans impairment of chromosome segregation during cell division may contribute to disease and birth defects. Thus, errors in centromere function can lead to chromosome instability and aberrant cell division, both of which are often observed in cancer cells. Given the essential roles of the centromeric CenH3 during cell division and the similarities in centromeric structure and function observed among all eukaryotes, the insights into Drosophila centromere stability provided by Azor?n's group may contribute to our understanding of the genetic basis of cancer.

LONDON | Thu Aug 25, 2011 2:26pm EDT

LONDON (Reuters) - Astronomers have spotted an exotic planet that seems to be made of diamond racing around a tiny star in our galactic backyard.

The new planet is far denser than any other known so far and consists largely of carbon. Because it is so dense, scientists calculate the carbon must be crystalline, so a large part of this strange world will effectively be diamond.

"The evolutionary history and amazing density of the planet all suggest it is comprised of carbon -- i.e. a massive diamond orbiting a neutron star every two hours in an orbit so tight it would fit inside our own Sun," said Matthew Bailes of Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne.

Lying 4,000 light years away, or around an eighth of the way toward the center of the Milky Way from the Earth, the planet is probably the remnant of a once-massive star that has lost its outer layers to the so-called pulsar star it orbits.

Pulsars are tiny, dead neutron stars that are only around 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) in diameter and spin hundreds of times a second, emitting beams of radiation.

In the case of pulsar J1719-1438, the beams regularly sweep the Earth and have been monitored by telescopes in Australia, Britain and Hawaii, allowing astronomers to detect modulations due to the gravitational pull of its unseen companion planet.

The measurements suggest the planet, which orbits its star every two hours and 10 minutes, has slightly more mass than Jupiter but is 20 times as dense, Bailes and colleagues reported in the journal Science on Thursday.

In addition to carbon, the new planet is also likely to contain oxygen, which may be more prevalent at the surface and is probably increasingly rare toward the carbon-rich center.

Its high density suggests the lighter elements of hydrogen and helium, which are the main constituents of gas giants like Jupiter, are not present.

Just what this weird diamond world is actually like close up, however, is a mystery.

"In terms of what it would look like, I don't know I could even speculate," said Ben Stappers of the University of Manchester. "I don't imagine that a picture of a very shiny object is what we're looking at here."

If you are tired of the corporate world, and you?re looking for a way to get away, you may want to consider starting a small home based business. This may be one of the best ways to gain both financial and personal independence.

Numerous people run away from starting a home based business because they are scared that the work load will probably be too much to handle. There are a lot of stories circulating around about people who own their own businesses having to work 20 hour days, 7 days a week. Although there are people that are really dedicated to their home based business, it?s a misconception that you will need to work 100 hour weeks in order to be successful.

One of the best ways to get started with a home based business is to keep it small from the start. There is no reason to get ahead of yourself and begin hiring employees and renting out warehouse room. There are many small home based business possibilities that you can look into.

One small home based business opportunity that?s very popular in today?s day and age has to do with selling products via the internet. The reason that this is so well-known is because you do not have to cope with opening up a retail location, or stocking tons of goods from the start. The only things that you will have to do is determine what you want to sell, and get everything put in place on-line. By doing this you can be in business right away. This small home based business chance will give you the ability to work the hours that you want to work; you will be in sole control of everything.

Another small home based business idea that you might want to check out is becoming an affiliate marketer. Affiliate marketers do not even have to have stocks! You sell other companies? products and they even ship them for you. And you get the commission! Sometimes as high as 75%. I run one of my on-line businesses as an affiliate marketer myself and it is one of the quickest way to gain monetary and personal independence in the event you adhere to a well established plan.

A little home based business opportunity may be just what you?re in need of. There?s no reason to be fearful of these opportunities, because you?ll be in charge of everything that you are doing. Remember, one of the reasons that you are probably leaving the corporate world is to ensure that you can have freedom and independence. With a small home based business you will control every thing that you do from start to finish.

palbedy · ScienceDaily (Aug. 25, 2011)

ScienceDaily (Aug. 25, 2011) ? Globally, irrigation increases agricultural productivity by an amount roughly equivalent to the entire agricultural output of the U.S., according to a new University of Wisconsin-Madison study.

That adds up to a sizeable impact on carbon uptake from the atmosphere. It also means that water shortages -- already forecasted to be a big problem as the world warms -- could contribute to yet more warming through a positive feedback loop.

The new research quantified irrigation's contribution to global agricultural productivity for the years 1998-2002, estimating the amount of carbon uptake enabled by relieving water stress on croplands. The results published August 25 in the journal Global Biogeochemical Cycles, a publication of the American Geophysical Union.

"If you add up all the annual productivity that comes solely due to irrigation, it adds up to about 0.4 petagrams of carbon, nearly equivalent to the total agricultural productivity of the United States," says study author Mutlu Ozdogan, a UW-Madison professor of forest and wildlife ecology and member of the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies.

The study also shows quantitatively that irrigation increases productivity in a nonlinear fashion -- in other words, adding even a small amount of water to a dry area can have a bigger impact than a larger amount of water in a wetter region. "More irrigation doesn't necessarily mean more productivity," Ozdogan says. "There are diminishing returns."

This was already known on the field scale, he says, but is true globally as well. Interestingly, he found that, on average, worldwide irrigation is currently conducted close to the optimal level that maximizes gains. While this may be good news for current farmers, it implies limited potential for irrigation to boost future productivity even as food demands increase.

The study takes an important step toward quantifying how management decisions can impact global carbon balance and assessing the economic worth of water and carbon in irrigated landscapes.

"Now that we have spatially-explicit maps of how much irrigation is increasing carbon accumulation, we have good information about the value of the water going into those areas. We might be able to come up with a value of carbon in those areas as well," he says. "Of course the flip side of this is that, in many places around the world, if we keep irrigating we are either going to run out of water or degrade soils because of salinity issues."

The current study does not factor in any impacts in areas from which irrigation water is drawn. However, Ozdogan says, a better understanding of the links between irrigation, productivity, and carbon will help researchers look at downstream effects of factors that influence each of those elements -- for example, how water shortages in agricultural regions may affect regional carbon cycles and climate.

The study continues a history of work from the UW-Madison's Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment that includes the development of several freely available climate and ecosystem models, maps, and datasets. This research was partially supported by a National Aeronautics and Space Administration Applied Sciences Program grant.

questions

Q: The Realtor we had listing our house told us that they did not do open houses anymore..that it was enough to be listed on the internet. After having the house for a few months and doing nothing to try and sell it he had someone call him about renting the house. He suggested we rent it and so we took his advice. I asked him if he got a background check on the couple and he said no , he knew them and they were a good family. Well , the good people did not pay the rent on time the first couple months and they told us they were getting a divorce the 3rd month. She moved out..he stayed and did not pay the rent at all. He kept saying his dad would pay it ?never happened. They took down doors inside the house ..repainted a few of the rooms that had just been painted but made a mess of it. The jacuzzi tub was used to clean paint brushes and had paint on the bottom of the tub and all over the door and walls of the bathroom where it splashed. The real estate agent took 1200.00 from us for renting the place to them and we have had to deal with the mess that was left when we finally got the guy out of the house. Is there anything we can do about this ? We were told that you never get money in small claims court going after them. I want to know why the Realtor should keep the $1200 for renting the house. I asked him why he didn?t listen to me and get background info on them. He said he was not set up as a rental agency. I asked him why he did the rental then ?..no comment and he says he won?t give us any money back.

A:If I were you, I would be contacting this realtors Broker. If the Broker is not interested in working with you I would contact the local Real Estate Commission and filing a complaint. As a licensed Broker of nearly 20 years, I have no tolerance for other agents not doing their best to uphold our reputation. This is exactly why we have the population of FSBO?s that frequently get themselves into a mess.
Carolyn Mitchell is a Realtor? with D. Schafer Realty-Bella Vista in Bella Vista, AR.

A: A lot of details would be required to really answer this question. But, first I would talk to the Agents Broker or Principal Broker and see if they can assist in a resolution. Refer to your rental agreements. Definitely speak to an attorney about pursuing the tenant in small claims court. I was a bill collector and have owned collection agencies in the past! My father just sold his collection agency and retired. I can tell you the only way to get money from a judgment small claims or other is if you have an asset to seize. Income from employment, a bank account (refer to cancelled checks) perhaps a free and clear car. The best assets are the bank account and the employment. In that order, most state laws let you clean out the bank account (do it just after payday and you get it all) and then garnish 25% of the tenants wages.

Meantime, hire a reputable property manager to assist in any further rentals of the property. They will complete the due diligence on prospective tenants so you minimize the risk of this happening again. The property manager will only charge 8-10 percent of the rent. Sounds like a lot at first, but after what you have been through it would have been money well spent!
James J. White is a Realtor? with Liberty First Realty, LLC in Tualatin, OR.

A: Sounds like you need to speak with an attorney.

As far as the Realtor goes, you can always contact the real estate commission to file a complaint, etc.

Good luck!
Raine Spivey is a Realtor? with Reign Realty LLC in Charlotte, NC.

A: I am very sorry your agent has done this to you. This was not professional on the realtors part and he should of referred you to a reputable rental company to help you with the rental. I would contact the agents broker and let the broker know of the situation. Also I would contact your local Board of Realtors and have them look into the situation for you. I have dealt with rentals and renters before, You do spend some money and time in small clairms court and some time you do recover your money with a judgement against the renters.
Sandy Straley is a Realtor? in Layton, UT.

A: Check with a Real Estate Attorney. Usually they?ll do a consultation free. They might give you advise over the phone. It may depend on what paper work you all had as to what degree you can ?go after? the Realtor for.

Online marketing entails many components of promoting your web site. Just about any veteran marketer at this point is knowledgeable about basic aspects such as SEO, long tail keywords, and link building. Traffic to your site is definitely the key component to internet success. More specifically, it is targeted website traffic that will make or break your online business. Converting traffic is made up of individuals who purchase a product or service through your web site. Preferably, these particular individuals will return and buy from you again in the future. A legion of customers who return and buy from you multiple times will enable you to generate a nice regular stream of residual income.

Opt-in email marketing often is the key to have clients return to you for future sales. This particular system works through having a sign up box on your web site. Site visitors who enter in their name and email address will turn into subscribers to your list. The goal will be to generate a list of hundreds to thousands of subscribers.

Aromatherapy sounds strange and esoteric to some people, but once you learn about it you realize that it?s quite simple and down to earth. While it performs the function of a regular household item, it takes the standard concept of an air freshener to a completely new level. Studies have proven that scents can have a strong effect on the human brain and mood, which why aromatherapy has so many advantages, some of which we will be looking at in this article.

The most elementary use of aromatherapy is as a substitute for normal air freshener and it is great for any space, from your office to your home and even your car. People typically buy products that mask odors or have citrus or other types of pleasant smells, but why not use all natural essential oils for this job? Most commercial products have the potential to cause side effects due to the fact that they are made with harsh chemicals, without a natural plant in sight. Aromatherapy, on the other hand, will not only make a room smell better, it can have a positive impact on how you feel and can even relieve certain physical symptoms, such as sinus problems.

Many will use these essential oils in the bath for relaxation.

You might even find that essential oils can relax aching muscles as well as soothe the mind after a long days work. If you want a different experience each time try experimenting with many different oils or creating your own blend. This is also a way to give your whole body the fragrance of the oil you use. You don?t have to overdo it, as a few drops is all it takes to transform your bath water into an aromatherapy session.

If you like to meditate or engage in activities that require that sort of state, like visualization, self-hypnosis, tai chi, or yoga, you can use aromatherapy to get into the right state of mind. However, it is possible that you will need to conduct some experiments to discover which oils are most relaxing to you. You can use the right fragrance to increase your concentration on a particular activity or to help you meditate, much like you do when you play relaxing music in the background.

There are many good reasons to get involved with aromatherapy. You have many choices as far as how you want to practice it, or which essential oils you want to use. There is little reason to start with something complicated. All you need to get started is a bottle of essential oil, something you prefer in terms of smell, and a diffuser of some sort. We?ve looked at some practical and interesting aspects of aromatherapy, but if you?re interested, there?s lots more to explore.

NEW YORK ? Americans eager to give after the 9/11 terrorist attacks poured $1.5 billion into hundreds of charities established to serve the victims, their families and their memories. But a decade later, an Associated Press investigation shows that many of those nonprofits have failed miserably.

There are those that spent huge sums on themselves, those that cannot account for the money they received, those that have few results to show for their spending and those that have yet to file required income tax returns. Yet many of the charities continue to raise money in the name of Sept. 11.

One charity raised more than $700,000 for a giant memorial quilt, but there is no quilt. Another raised more than $4 million to help victims, but didn't account publicly for how it spent all of the money. A third helps support a 9/11 flag sold by the founder's for-profit company.

There are other charities that can account for practically every penny raised ? except that all the money went to pay for fundraising, and not the intended mission.

To be sure, most of the 325 charities identified by the AP followed the rules, accounted fully for their expenditures and closed after fulfilling identified goals.

There have been charities to assist ill and dying first responders, to help families of the dead, to help survivors and to honor the memory of victims. And there are charities that revolve around the flag, patriotism, motorcycle rallies and memorials of all sizes and shapes.

But in virtually every category of 9/11 nonprofit, an AP analysis of tax documents and other official records uncovered schemes beset with shady dealings, questionable expenses and dubious intentions. Many of those still raising money are small, founded by people with no experience running a nonprofit.

? The Arizona-based charity that raised $713,000 for a 9/11 memorial quilt promised it would be big enough to cover 25 football fields, but there are only several hundred decorated sheets packed in boxes at a storage unit.

One-third of the money raised went to the charity's founder and relatives, according to tax records and interviews. The chairman of the board, an 84-year-old Roman Catholic priest, says he didn't know he was chairman and thought that only small amounts of money had been raised. He says he was unaware that the founder had given himself a $200 per week car allowance, rent reimbursement and a $45,000 payment for an unreported loan.

? There's a charity for a 9/11 Garden of Forgiveness at the World Trade Center site ? only there's no Garden of Forgiveness. The Rev. Lyndon Harris, who founded the Sacred City nonprofit in 2005, spent the months following 9/11 at ground zero helping victims, relatives and first responders. He said he formed the charity to fulfill "our sacred oath" to build the garden. Tax records show the charity has raised $200,000, and that the Episcopal priest paid himself $126,530 in salary and used another $3,562 for dining expenses between 2005 and 2007.

Harris said he sees his charity's work as a success even if there is no garden at the site. "I saw our mission as teaching about forgiveness," he said.

? Another Manhattan 9/11 charity, Urban Life Ministries, raised more than $4 million to help victims and first responders. But the group only accounted for about $670,000 on its tax forms. Along with almost four dozen other 9/11 charities, Urban Life lost its IRS tax-exempt status this year because it failed to show how money was collected and spent.

? The Flag of Honor Fund, a Connecticut charity, raised nearly $140,000 to promote a memorial flag honoring 9/11 victims. The flag, which contains the name of every person killed on Sept. 11, 2001, is on sale today at Wal-Mart and other retail stores. But only a tiny fraction of the money from those sales goes to 9/11 charities, with most going to retail stores, the flag maker and a for-profit business ? run by the man who created the flag charity.

The AP examined charities that received tax-exempt status from the Internal Revenue Service by promising to serve victims of the 9/11 tragedy, build memorials or do other charitable works in honor of the dead. The charities were identified using data maintained by Guidestar, a private database of nonprofits that the IRS recommends.

The $1.5 billion donated to these charities was in addition to the billions spent by Congress and states and established nonprofits like the Red Cross.

Most of the 9/11 charities fulfilled their missions, but the AP analysis found dozens that struggled, fell short of their promises or did more to help their founders than those affected by the terrorist attacks.

Here are some of their stories:

___

THE QUILT THAT ISN'T

Kevin Held was earning a living as a self-employed handyman in Peoria, Ariz., when he formed Stage 1 Productions in 2003 to promote the American Quilt Memorial honoring the lives lost on Sept. 11. He said thousands of individual pieces would be crafted together on white, king-sized sheets that, when sewn together, would stretch 1 1/2 miles across an eight-lane highway.

That never happened.

The $713,000 that Held raised from students, school fundraising campaigns, T-shirt sales and other donations is gone. More than $270,000 of that went to Held and family members, records show.

In a July interview, Held said he hoped to finish the quilt in a few months. But he changed his mind a few weeks after the AP began asking questions, abruptly shutting the project because of "tough economic times."

Held has done an impressive job raising money, persuading students to hold "penny drives" and police officers to buy T-shirts promoting the quilt for $20 or more. But he's spent a lot in doing so.

Since 2004, Held paid himself $175,000 in salary, health insurance, other benefits and a weekly car allowance he received for most of that time. He's owed another $63,820 in deferred salary, according to the charity's most recent tax filing. Held argues that he's actually owed closer to $420,000, because he was supposed to receive $60,000 annually since 2003, and has received far less.

He told the AP in July that more than $50,000 paid in 2005 to satisfy a loan never reported by the charity went to his mother to repay "an accumulation of a bunch of small loans." But when pressed last week ? after the AP pointed out that his mother died that year ? Held said he paid himself more than $45,000 to repay the loan. He said he couldn't explain the other $5,000 without researching it.

He said he paid another $12,000 to his brothers, Dave and John, as consulting fees.

Held also charged the charity more than $37,000 for office rent, utilities and other related expenses, according to the group's tax forms. But the addresses reported by the charity for most years were Held's home and private mail boxes at PostNet and UPS stores in Arizona and south Texas.

Held said he received much of the office payments to cover the cost of working out of his home.

Held spent more than $170,000 on travel since 2004 to promote the quilt. He rarely traveled without his two Alaskan Malamute dogs, one at 120 pounds and the other 200 pounds. He also listed $36,691 in credit card and bank charges since 2005 and $10,460 for an expense listed as "petty" in 2009.

"I loved going out and traveling," he said. "I loved going to the police departments."

Held acknowledges he struggled managing the charity's finances, but he said he didn't live off the nonprofit. "If I made a mistake, I made a mistake. If I did, then crucify me. I never said I was a professional at this."

Still, he's come a long way since serving a few days in a Tampa jail in 1993 for misdemeanor theft and battery. With his wife, he's moving into a $660,000, five-bedroom house overlooking a lake in Chandler, Ariz.

The charity's finances surprised the Rev. Jude Duffy, identified in the charity's tax filings as board chairman. He said he had no idea that Held had collected more than $713,000 for the charity until the AP showed him the documents.

Duffy, who lives in St. Lawrence Friary in Beacon, N.Y., said he became suspicious several years ago after Held created a new fundraising project without finishing the quilt. The latest project ? Operation Adopt-a-Soldier ? promises students postcards and posters that they can send to soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan if each class will send Held up to $40.

"Is this some kind of scam?" Duffy said he asked Held in an email. "Are you playing on the emotion of the people with this?"

Held responded that he was insulted by the suggestion and assured Duffy that he would finish the quilt project.

"As we look at it today," Duffy said, "certainly it seems to be that we were duped entirely by whatever he had in mind. I don't know what that is. But I would call it a scam or a clever scheme."

Even Held's story of how the quilt project started is suspect.

For years, he claimed he had come up with the idea for a student-led national tribute after hearing that Dominique Deal, a family friend's high school daughter, crafted her own memorial on a bed sheet.

But she says that story isn't true.

"I think he wanted people to think I came up with it. But I just helped," said the woman, now Dominique Greer, 25, and married in Peoria, Ariz. "I guess he thought it would be weird to say he started it."

Held now admits he made up the story because he didn't want to receive credit.

He insists he has accounted for every dime spent by the charity, even if he can't justify all the expenses.

"It doesn't mean I'm a bad person," Held said. "It just means I made a mistake."

MINISTER'S MILLIONS

Urban Life Ministries, based in a church not far from the World Trade Center site, is one of many 9/11 charities that have caught the attention of the IRS because it failed to file annual tax returns. The AP review found other issues as well.

The charity's creator, the Rev. Carl Keyes, said that in the initial months after the 9/11 attacks the group raised more than $4 million with the help of a Christian television station telethon. All of that money, he said, went to cover the costs of counseling, feeding and caring for 9/11 victims, first responders and workers at ground zero.

"There were plenty of things to do to ease the suffering of the people," Keyes said.

But there's no way to know how Keyes used donations raised to do that.

The only tax return available from Guidestar ? for the 2001 tax year ? lists just $670,000 raised for his relief work. The New York Attorney General's office said it didn't receive the required filings from the charity after 2001. The IRS withdrew the charity's tax-exempt status in June for failing to file annual returns.

Keyes, an Assemblies of God minister, acknowledged that the nonprofit did not file taxes for all years.

Keyes has not responded to AP's requests to explain how the money raised was spent; some of the information he did provide conflicted with the 2001 return.

For example, Keyes said in the initial interview that he never received a salary from his charity. But the 2001 tax filing reported that he spent $89,500 on compensation to charity directors, including $31,600 paid to himself and his wife in the nonprofit's first months.

Keyes and his wife also received salaries from Glad Tidings Tabernacle, their New York City church. A large amount of the charity's money went to Keyes' church. The nonprofit group gave the church a $23,855 loan and had leases to pay it $192,000 a year in rent, according to financial statements filed in New York.

Keyes said he set up a branch of his charity on the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina devastated the area in 2005, putting his brother-in-law, Mark Jones, in charge. But it's not clear how much money was raised and spent because Keyes has not filed the necessary tax statements with the IRS.

Jones estimated that at least $800,000 was spent by the charity for the Mississippi projects. Jones helped oversee rebuilding and renovations to more than 100 homes, which he said cost between $7,000 and $12,000 each.

Keyes said he knows his charity has not filed all the required disclosures. "We're not very good at that," he said.

But he said he hoped the nonprofit's efforts in response to 9/11 and Katrina wouldn't be tainted by his lack of accounting.

"You're going to beat me up in an article because we're bad managers?" Keyes said.

FOR-PROFIT FLAG

At first glance, the Flag of Honor/Flag of Heroes Project looks like any other charity doing philanthropy in the name of 9/11. But people who have bought one of its flags might be surprised to learn that nearly all the proceeds have gone to the charity founder's for-profit flag company, not 9/11 victims.

IRS rules generally prohibit the resources of a nonprofit group from being used to promote a for-profit product.

John Michelotti of Greenwich, Conn., the charity's founder, said one of his goals was to give a framed copy of his flag, which bears the names of all the dead emblazoned on the Stars and Stripes to every family that lost someone in the attacks. He also designed a "Flag of Heroes" with only the names of fallen firefighters and law enforcement personnel.

"The more the flags are out there, the more these people live, the more they are remembered," he said.

Documents filed with the state of Connecticut explain that part of the fund's mission is to create "a national people's memorial" by urging corporations "to hang the Flag of Honor artwork prominently in all of their business locations." In some IRS filings, the charity said its purpose was to sell the memorial flag.

During the last nine years, Michelotti said, he has sold or given away almost 300,000 banners and posters of the Flag of Honor. The project's website lists 10 nonprofit groups as beneficiaries of the flag sales, including the Boy Scouts, a food bank in Oregon and a Manhattan church that narrowly escaped being destroyed in the attacks.

But in an AP interview, Michelotti acknowledged that his for-profit business, BIE LLC, has donated no more than $15,000 to 9/11 charities.

Most of the charities listed as beneficiaries were actually BIE customers that purchased flags to resell during their own fundraising efforts.

For example, Michelotti imported flags from China for about $5 each, he said. The Exchange Group chapter in Salem, Ore., bought about 4,000 flags from his for-profit company to use in a patriotic display for about $7 each, then sold them for $25. About $75,000 was raised for several causes, including the Oregon National Guard Emergency Relief Fund, but none of the money came out of Michelotti's cut.

Michelotti's charity collected $139,332 in donations and other revenue from 2003 to 2009, but it only gave away framed copies of the flag to the families of between 200 and 350 victims of the terror attacks.

Tax returns filed by the group don't list any donations to 9/11 victims or the groups that serve them.

In interviews with the AP, Michelotti said he has never tried to mislead anyone about the nature of his business. "I never tell people, 'Your money is going into a nonprofit,'" he said.

He contended the 10 beneficiaries were listed on the company's website merely to show that some nonprofit groups have used the flag in their events, not to indicate that they are getting a cut of the profits.

"I'm not getting the feedback that people are confused by it," he said.

Some people have gotten the wrong idea, though. When "Today" show host Hoda Kotb promoted the flag on national television in 2009, she described the project as "a contribution fund to help those that were affected."

Several 9/11 organizations have embraced his product. The flag is sold at the National Sept. 11 Memorial and Museum, and online by Voices of Sept. 11, a leading victims' advocacy group.

Annin Flag Makers, the nation's largest and oldest flag company, also recently signed on to the project. The company said it shipped 170,000 of the flags this summer to stores nationwide, including Walmart.

Under Michelotti's deal with Annin, some money from flag sales will go to charities regularly for the first time ? but it won't be much. Ten percent of the wholesale revenue will be split among the Wounded Warriors Project, the National Sept. 11 Memorial and Museum, Voices of 9/11 ? and Michelotti's Flag of Honor charity, according to Annin's marketing material.

Michelotti and Annin declined to disclose how much of a licensing fee he will receive or how much retailers are paying for the flag. But if it is close to the $7 wholesale price Michelotti charged previously, roughly 70 cents of a $20 retail purchase would go to charity.

The remaining profit would go to the flag maker, the retailer, and Michelotti's for-profit company.

Asked if he thought the Flag of Honor Fund had crossed the firewall between a charity and a for-profit company, Michelotti said, "One bleeds into the other for me," and then added: "It probably helps, because we have good will, but it doesn't help financially."

BIG EVENTS, SMALL RETURN

Weeks after the 9/11 attacks, Theodore Sjurseth of Leesburg, Va., climbed aboard his Harley Davidson and led about 250 bikers to New York City to pay homage to the dead.

Since then, the ride has become an annual charity event, with nearly $2.2 million in gross revenue between 2003 and last year. This year's ride, held last week, had nearly 3,000 registered participants.

Yet in one important respect, it has fallen short in its mission.

The nonprofit group formed to organize the ride, America's 9/11 Foundation, has spent far more putting on the event than supporting its mission of assisting first responders and their children. As of last year, it had donated 10 motorcycles to various police departments around the eastern U.S. and Canada, at a cost of about $200,000, given $150,000 in scholarships to the children of police officers and firefighters, paid some modest grants to police departments struggling to support their motorcycle brigades or canine units, and supported a playground rehabilitation project in Linden, N.J.

The reason it hasn't donated more: lavish spending on the ride itself. The event is now four days long and takes participants from the Flight 93 crash site in Shanksville, Pa., to the Pentagon to ground zero in New York.

The foundation picks up all tolls for the riders, pays for their meals, and in some years has put on concerts.

To attract police officers to the event, it puts them up in hotel rooms for each night of the ride and waives their registration fees. In some years, the foundation has made compensation payments to municipalities along the ride route to make up for the hassle of closing traffic while the bikers pass.

Calculating how much the group ultimately gives to charity is difficult, because the foundation counts the officers' free hotel rooms and municipal compensation payments as donations, rather than ride expenses.

But even under that interpretation, the group has spent less than 20 percent of the money it raised on charitable causes.

Sjurseth, who wanted to be a firefighter as a teenager until a pellet gun accident cost him sight in one eye, agreed the ride could be a more effective fundraiser if it cut costs or raised registration fees ? now at about $120.

But, he said, he thinks the foundation has "done great" for an all-volunteer group.

"Has it blossomed the way I wanted it to? No," he said. "I'd love for this thing to be making millions of dollars."

DALLAS ? A Dallas man accused of drowning his two young sons Monday after abducting them while they were walking to school with their mother was being held on capital murder charges, authorities said.

Naim Muhammad, 32, was held on $2 million bond Monday evening in Dallas County Jail on two counts of capital murder. Online jail records didn't indicate if he has an attorney.

Police identified the boys as 5-year-old Naim and 3-year-old Elijah. They have their father's last name, but police have spelled it differently than court and jail records.

A police report said the 32-year-old Muhammad forced his 3- and 5-year-old sons and their mother into his vehicle Monday morning by threatening her with a brick.

She jumped out of the vehicle after it stopped at an intersection when she saw a Dallas constable drive up. She told police that when she got out of the vehicle, the suspect jumped the curb and took off. The constable did not chase the suspect but called police, according to the report.

Police said that while they weren't able to reach the suspect on his cell phone, he did call relatives.

Hours after the boys were taken, authorities received a 911 call from a woman who said her son had drowned her grandchildren and that she had the children, who were unresponsive, in her car awaiting paramedics, Dallas Fire-Rescue spokesman Jason Evans said in a statement.

Muhammad's mother, Naimah Muhammad, told KDFW television station in Dallas-Fort Worth that when she located her son she asked to see the children and he took her to a creek.

"At first when I saw them I was saying, `It can't be true! It can't be true!' But once he got them out of the creek and brought them to my car, and I seen they was dead I knew it was true," she told the television station. "That's when I called 911 and told them I had my grandkids and they're dead."

The boys were pronounced dead at a hospital.

The children's mother told police that the suspect told her he was going to kill the children. She also told them that he had previously threatened her life and the lives of the children.

Muhammad also tried but failed Monday to take his youngest child, a 1-year-old, from another location, Police Deputy Chief Craig Miller said at a news conference.

Miller said there was a "continuing family violence situation" between Muhammad and the boys' mother.

Muhammad was previously convicted of violent behavior.

In September 2009, he pleaded guilty to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a second degree felony, and received five years' probation. According to court records, the charge stemmed from a complaint from his sister that he had struck her in the head with a hammer.

Muhammad also has convictions for burglary of a vehicle, theft by check and marijuana possession, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety's online data base.
