Fair Game: How a Top Spy Was Betrayed by Her Own GovernmentOn July 6, 2003, four months after the United States invaded Iraq, former ambassador Joseph Wilson's now historic op ed, What I Didn't Find in Africa, appeared in The New York Times.

The public disclosure of that secret information spurred a federal investigation and led to the trial and conviction

On July 6, 2003, four months after the United States invaded Iraq, former ambassador Joseph Wilson's now historic op-ed, What I Didn't Find in Africa, appeared in The New York Times. A week later, conservative pundit Robert Novak revealed in his newspaper column that Ambassador Wilson's wife, Valerie Plame Wilson, was a CIA operative. The public disclosure of that secret information spurred a federal investigation and led to the trial and conviction of Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff, Scooter Libby, and the Wilsons' civil suit against top officials of the Bush administration. Much has been written about the Valerie Plame story, but Valerie herself has been silent, until now. Some of what has been reported about her has been frighteningly accurate, serving as a pungent reminder to the Wilsons that their lives are no longer private. And some has been completely false -- distorted characterizations of Valerie and her husband and their shared integrity.

Valerie Wilson retired from the CIA in January 2006, and now, not only as a citizen but as a wife and mother, the daughter of an Air Force colonel, and the sister of a U.S. marine, she sets the record straight, providing an extraordinary account of her training and experiences, and answers many questions that have been asked about her covert status, her responsibilities, and her life. As readers will see, the CIA still deems much of the detail of Valerie's story to be classified. As a service to readers, an afterword by national security reporter Laura Rozen provides a context for Valerie's own story.

Fair Game is the historic and unvarnished account of the personal and international consequences of speaking truth to power.

Almond massage cream
Size: 15 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Professional Massage Cream, Almond, 15 oz.
I’m using this product more than four years. But I noticed for the past year that it started to be less sliding… also I noticed separation of oil and cream…did they changed some formula? Still continue to buy this. Love the smell

Great Massage Cream
Size: 15 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Professional Massage Cream, Almond, 15 oz.
Exactly what we wanted, we used to buy this from Sally's Beauty Store, but they have stopped carrying it and said they weren't going to be anytime in the future. I am not sure if that is every location, but it was the same story at the three locations near me. So I am glad to have found a place to buy it again.
