Public Multimedia Inc. came full circle in 2007 when it was finally given 501(c)(3) status by the IRS. This non-profit news organization was developed and ran by Paul Hanusz and Bill Roggio in order to provide the public with accurate and ongoing reporting about The Long War. Just after being granted their non-profit status, they admirably sponsored several embeds into different areas.
Public Multimedia Sponsors Wes Morgan Embed
A writer for the Daily Princetonian, Wes Morgan was the first to be sponsored for an embed. He graduated from Princeton University and was an ROTC cadet. He was to spend time with General Petreaus in Iraq.
Public Multimedia Sponsors Bradley Patty Embed
Bradley Patty was to go to the Philippines and hook up with the Armed Forces of Philippines and U.S. Special Operation teams. He formerly had written about counterinsurgency and intelligence matters as a military contractor.
Public Multimedia also partially sponsored Michael Totten. He was embedded into Iraq and PMI sponsored the insurance he needed during that time.
The Long War Journal (Published by Public Multimedia Inc.)
Public Multimedia Inc. became known as the power behind The Long War Journal, which reported on the war on terror. With managing editor Bill Roggio, The Long Journal strived to report on conflicts, news and intelligence from the war on terror without having or promoting any sense of political favoritism or agenda. What started out as Roggio’s personal blog, it focused primarily on reporting the factual, detailed, no-holds-barred happenings that took place in Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan. This was possible not only thanks to the many media sources available, but also due to their contacts found within the intelligence community.
PMI and The Long War Journal survives strictly through private funds, grants and scholarships.

I just saw some very exciting news on Fox News. Dr Garner talked about a new hormone called Irisin that mimics the effects on the body of exercise. No, it doesn't build muscles. But all the other good things that happen after exercise occur when taking this hormone. Fat burning - the bad white type - increases just like after exercising. Growth hormone is increased. Blood glucose levels are lowered. All KINDS of good implications in fighting obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and a whole host of health problems. See: Irisin mimics exercise - Some New IdeasResearchers say this newly discovered hormone is found in very high levels in the body during and after exercise. It might help explain some of the health benefits of exercise and point the way to preventing obesity and diabetes.

As 2011 draws to a close I look back at the changes to the health and diet scene which saw quite a few changes. Probably the biggest was the explosion of interest in the HCG Diet, which is really just a retread of a 1950s fad that has been taken over by marketers to hype yet another product designed to prey upon desperate dieters. However, much like the Acai Berry in 2010, this scam seems to be short lived as the FDA is now cracking down and several online sellers have already stopped selling or are making drastic changes to their products and marketing.Navigate HereThe second biggest news was the slower, but steadier rise in the use of African Mango as a diet aid. Though not as flashy as the HCG diet, African Mango actually has university studies that proves it is effective at controlling hunger, so is gaining[...]
The African mango may seem like another stimulated product to produce hype and big bucks for companies. However, with backed support from Dr. Mehmet Oz, who has been featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show hundreds of times, the product seems more valid. Dr. Oz now has his own medical show, and has featured the African mango on his show not only as a weight loss aid, but as a super potent multivitamin that has benefits for both men and women. While Dr. Oz does not endorse the product, his claims that African mango is beneficial for lowering cholesterol, improving the waistline and an effective weight loss aid makes trying African mango worth the risk. The African mango comes in the form of an extract. The fruit is extremely rare and is found in parts of the country of Cameroon in Africa. While the African mango is a new phenomenon to those in[...]

With more Americans scrambling to find rapid cures for their weight-management woes, manufacturers and retailers may be tempted to jump on the popular HCG diet bandwagon. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Federal Trade Commission, however, want you to know that this is very bad ideaand they've issued warning letters to seven HCG homeopathic product marketers to prove it. "HCG has not been approved by the [FDA] for body weight reduction," Elizabeth Miller, acting director of the FDA's fraud unit for over-the-counter products and solutions, says in a video clip assertion on the agency's web-site. While the FDA has not obtained adverse studies associated to HCG pounds-loss solutions, Miller claims the company is concerned about the use of these merchandise simply because they instruct shoppers to consider them in blend with a 500 calorie for each day diet plan. "This variety of eating plan ought to only be done[...]
