Al Gore, Corporate Welfare Environmentalist
By Russell Mokhiber and Robert Weissman
Gas prices are rising and the threat of global warming looms ever
larger.
Al Gore, what have you done to wean the United States from its oil
dependency?
Asked a related question in a recent debate with Bill Bradley ("We
sent
our armed forces to the Persian Gulf in 1991 to return a country to
its
owners. Now we see higher gas prices. What will you do to ensure this
does
not happen again?"), Gore responded:
"We have an interest in being less dependent on sources of oil from a
region that is, over time, vulnerable to instability. I helped to put
in
place a program called the Partnership for a New Generation of
Vehicles,
which commits the big three automakers in our country to getting new
vehicles into the marketplace that have three times the efficiency of
today's vehicles."
It was telling that Al "Earth in the Balance" Gore would point to the
relatively obscure Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles
(PNGV),
the epitome of what might be called corporate welfare
environmentalism.
The Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles (PNGV) is a
public-private partnership between seven federal agencies, 20 federal
laboratories, and the big three automakers -- General Motors, Ford and
what is now Daimler Chrysler.
PNGV's main long term goal is to develop a "Supercar," "an
environmentally
friendly car with up to triple the fuel efficiency of today's midsize
cars
-- without sacrificing affordability, performance or safety."
It is hard to imagine an industry less in need of government support
for
research than the highly capitalized auto industry. Ford pulled in
profits
of $5.4 billion in the first three quarters of 1999. GM earned $4.8
billion over the same period. The government is supporting research
that
the industry could easily do on its own (and, to some extent, is doing
apart from the PNGC initiative), and should be mandated to undertake
to
meet tougher environmental standards.
How is it that the competitors in the oligopolistic auto industry are
able
to undertake a joint research undertaking? The PNGV program gives
participants an effective exemption from antitrust laws.
Defenders of such collaborative efforts love to invoke the legendary
example of the Manhattan Project, but the evidence is overwhelming
that
innovation -- especially in the commercial sector -- is more likely to
result from competition in research and development.
Oligopolistic collaboration is prone to all kinds of pitfalls, from
bureaucratic sloth to corrupt suppression of research -- as the auto
industry's own history makes clear.
In the 1960s, the Justice Department filed suit against the automakers
for
product fixing -- for refusing to introduce air quality enhancing
technologies. Among other claims, the Justice Department alleged that
the
U.S. automakers and their trade association had conspired "to
eliminate
all competition among themselves in the research, development,
manufacture
and installation of motor vehicle air pollution control equipment."
Now the Clinton-Gore administration has stamped its official
imprimatur on
the industry's preferred anti-competitive coordination of
environmental
research. (The administration's happy-talk calls it
"pre-competitive.")
Maybe today's auto industry is different than the auto industry of the
1960s. Or, maybe not.
Above all, the PNGV initiative has served during the Clinton-Gore
administration as a smokescreen behind which the automakers hide to
protect themselves from more stringent air quality standards.
"Cynics think that the PNGV was simply a politically astute 10-year
reprieve for the domestic auto industry from threats of higher
Corporate
Average Fuel Efficiency standards," writes Earth Day founder Denis
Hayes
in his new book, The Official Earth Day Guide to Planet Repair.
Deployment of existing technologies could dramatically enhance auto
fuel
efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but the automakers --
who
have waged a decades-long crusade against mandatory fuel efficiency
standards -- choose not to make these technologies widely available.
And the PNGV program does not even require the deployment in mass
production of the technologies it seeks to develop.
The leading innovators in fuel efficiency have been Toyota and Honda,
which do not participate in the PNGV program.
"By 2004, the PNGV hopes U.S. manufacturers will be able to produce a
U.S.
vehicle that has roughly the same characteristics as the
already-on-the-market Toyota Prius," Hayes notes.
"Actually," Hayes writes, "the most likely 2004 PNGV vehicles will be
inferior to the Prius in one important regard: they will probably

Join Global Exchange to launch a new campaign to promote the first Fair Trade Certified product in the country by organizing community campaigns to pressure the gourmet coffee industry leader, Starbucks, to go Fair Trade. Coffee is the second largest traded commodity (after oil) and it is the only product in the country with an independent monitoring and certification system for Fair Trade. In the aftermath of Seattle, Americans are demanding Fair Trade Not Free Trade now more than ever. Fair Trade means a fair economic exchange between Northern importers and Southern organized workers based on producers getting a living wage for their work, environmentally sustainable production, and other social criteria. This is an historical opportunity to challenge Ofree trade¹ advocates with our own developed system of Fair Trade and make the industry leader, Starbucks, sign on!! We are building a coalition of grassroots activists, churches, educators students, labor unions, environmentalists, and anyone who cares about social justice to be part of an grassroots education team to increase demand for Fair Trade coffee in our own neighborhoods. There are currently over 20 campuses nationwide involved in campaigns to bring Fair Trade to their communities. NOW is the time to pressure Starbucks, the gourmet coffee industry leader ($1.7 billion in revenues in O99), to pay coffee farmers a living wage (a minimum of $1.26 per pound). Our demands: Offer your customers the choice to buy Fair Trade Certified coffee in every one of the 2300 stores nationwide, and implement your Framework for Action (Code of Conduct). We are asking Fair Trade supporters across the country to endorse and participate in the National Day of Action for Fair Trade on April 13 as part of the national Mobilization for Global Justice in Washington DC. Participate in the national launch through the following activities: -Demonstrations across the country -A national sign on letter, to be circulated for endorsements -Demonstrations in DC as part of the Mobilization for Global Justice -Educational forums on Fair Trade in DC -DC Congressional visits which will make the connection between our government's failure to promote Fair Trade policies and the burgeoning citizen's movement in support of Fair Trade.

We are writing to strongly urge that you purchase coffee that is Fair Trade Certified. About half of all coffee worldwide is produced by small farmers. These farmers own and farm their own small plots of land, but have little to no control over the export system for their coffee. Free trade in the coffee industry means farmers generally receive between $.30-50 per pound of coffee that retails for as much as $10-12 per pound in gourmet coffee markets, including those of Starbucks. Small farmers working without the benefit of an organized export cooperative are forced to sell to exploitative middlemen who generally pay them less than half of the export price. This export price is based on the New York "C" Contract spot price and is usually around $1 per pound, but fluctuates wildly. Fair Trade seeks to correct these imbalances by setting a minimum price per pound a living wage. This international Fair Trade price, $1.26 per pound, is set by the Fair Trade Labeling Organizations International (FLO) which includes representatives of farmer cooperatives.

[CTRL] [2] Philadelphia and the China Trade
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- an excerpt from: Philadelphia and the China Trade 1682-1846 Jonathan Goldstein The Pennsylvania State University©1978 All Rights Reserved The Pennsylvania State University Press 121 pps. First Edition Out-of-print - A little background. om k - 2 The Colonial Impetus 1682-1783 By introducing the produce of those countries which lie on the east side of the old world, and particularly those of China, this country may be improved beyond what heretofore might have been expected. And could we be so fortunate as to introduce the industry of the Chinese, their arts of living and improvements in husbandry, as well as their native plants, America might in time become as populous as China. -Charles Thomson[1] In the Colonial period, Philadelphia merchants acquired mercantile and navigational expertise that would later be useful to them in a direct China trade of their own. They assumed an intellectual predisposition favorable to direct trade with China, and became increasingly disenchanted with British mercantilist regulation of the indirect type of trade which they were obliged to conduct. Both attitudinal processes occurred gradually. Their origins may be traced as far back as the founding of the Province of Pennsylvania and City of Philadelphia in 1682. The processes reached their culmination and received their fullest expression in 1783, when American independence was recognized by the British and when Philadelphia merchants undertook the establishment of a direct China trade of their own. A Business Community Is Formed Prior to 1783, and to a considerable extent thereafter until at least 1846, America's international trade was conducted in the colonial fashion wherein each municipality was a discrete entity. The American business historian Thomas Cochran has noted in this respect: In spite of intercolonial trade in some items, each major port with its tributary back country was a separate business community remote from its neighbors. The personal ties that bound the business world together were more often between American merchants and the houses of Liverpool or London than between men on this side of the Atlantic. Business men of Charleston were more at home in London than in Boston.[2] The economic development of Philadelphia and the growth of its merchant community were no exception. The city was founded in 1682 by English Quakers led by William Penn. A cohesive and well-capitalized merchant community developed with strong ties to the agricultural producers of the city's hinterland and to agents abroad. Ties between Philadelphia Quaker merchants and their kin abroad were a constant feature of the city's colonial and early national economic development, and facilitated the early development of a lucrative export trade in flour and lumber from the province to Europe, Canada, and the West Indies. Furthermore, the well-known Quaker policy of toleration, liberal by seventeenth-century standards, helped to populate the colony and gave it a cultural, ethnic, and mercantile vitality not seen again in America until the migrations of the nineteenth century. German farmers of numerous persecuted sects settled the city's hinterland. Jewish businessmen brought to the city of Philadelphia a network of foreign trade connections second only to that of the Quakers. By 1785, Philadelphia was not only the most populous but probably the most cosmopolitan city in the United States, with a significantly large and intellectual French emigre community, and an ethnic diversity that embraced Chinese and East Indians as well as the inhabitants of European ancestry, not to mention blacks.[3] The economic growth of the city was fostered, in its broader aspects, by its fortune in being almost completely surrounded by grain-producing lands that an industrious populace was quick to exploit. The commercial development of the port proceeded in stages that had been the pattern for the development of English capitalism during two centuries: a progression from farming to the export of commodities, to the ownership of vessels, to the ultimate translation of profits into domestic manufacture and internal improvements. The experience of three Philadelphia mercantile families prominent in the China trade may be cited as examples of stages of this process. The Waln family, members of George Fox's original Quaker meeting in England, joined Penn in the founding of Philadelphia in 1682. By 1772, the Walns had built their own flour mill in WaInford, Monmouth County, New Jersey. The Donnaldsons, a non-Quaker family, were, in pre-Revolutionary times, farmers, grain merchants, and manufacturers of ship bread in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The non-Quaker Latimer family, whose Philadelphia town house has been noted, originally emigrated from Newry, Ireland, to Pennsylvania in 1736 to become farmers near Lancaster. By midcentury, James Latimer had moved southeast to the

First Edition Out-of-print - Philadelphia Merchants' Final Conflict with the Chinese Government, 1821-46 The increased Chinese militancy toward the American opium trade, beginning in 1815 and culminating in the Terranova incident of 1821, resulted in a major reshuffling of attitudes within the American community in Canton after 1821. Up to the Terranova incident, the basic attitude had been to try and live with the exactions of the Chinese. Thomas Randall, of the Empress of China, wa s perhaps the first American to enunciate this view in 1791: The idea of a representation, concerning the frauds and impositions of the Chinese to the Emperor, would deserve attention were there not the danger of making things worse.[42] As late as 1819, American merchants, not wishing to antagonize the Chinese, had rejected the proffered protection of one of their country's naval units when it touched at Canton. Latimer had expressed the view that "to contend with the Chinese would be madness. If they refuse to listen to our terms we have no recourse."[43] Part and parcel of the American policy of passivity was a willingness to accept those rights and privileges that Britain secured from the Chinese and that were extended to other Westerners as a matter of course. "We will not oppose you," Latimer informed his British colleagues in 1829. "Gain all you can, we are sure to come in for the benefits."[44] The most notable success achieved by this policy occurred in 1842, when the hard-won rights and privile ges which China granted to Britain in the Nanking Treaty were extended to the United States some two years before the conclusion of the first Sino-American treaty. The policy of passivity enabled Americans to present themselves to the Chinese as friends and allies, in ready contrast to the belligerent British, and yet to wind up with essentially the same gains as Britain.[45] In addition to American willingness to accept privileges secured by the British, the American traders in Canton engaged in a delicately orchestrated diplomacy of their own. The supreme caveat in the diplomacy was that under no circumstances should the risk be run of having the Canton market closed to American shipping. All other projects and propositions might be entertained. There was continuous Congressional lobbying by China traders for the upgrading of the United States Canton consulate into more than a ceremonial and unsalaried post. Repeated requests were made for the stationing of an American physician in Canton, attached to the consulate. This demand was fulfilled in 1827 when Dr. James Bradford of Philadelphia took up residence in Latimer's house in Canton and opened a practice. As early as 1821, prior to the Terranova incident, Robert Waln, Jr., advocated in a series of articles in Philadelphia's National Gazette that an American embassy be sent to China and a commercial treaty negotiated.[46] All of these suggestions, insofar as they required Chinese compliance in their implementation, overlooked the fact that the imperial Chinese government would be averse to enter into negotiations with Western powers so long as a contraband opium trade continued, as it did increasingly in the years after the Terranova incident. Latimer took over the opium trade of Benjamin Wilcocks when that entrepreneur returned to the United States in 1827. He expanded both the India and Turkey branches of the American trade, and stationed an opium-receiving ship in the outer reaches of Canton harbor. That vessel, the Thomas Scattergood, cleared some $30,000 for Latimer in the course of its operation. During the six seasons 1822-23 through 1827-28, foreign sales of opium in China annually averaged 8,043 chests, worth $8.7 million. The average of the next six seasons rose to 17,756 chests, worth $13.4 million. In the single season of 1837-38, foreign opium sales in China reached a record high of 28,307 chests worth $19.8 million, or more than double the annual average of the previous ten seasons.[47] The increase in contraband traffic, far from inducing the imperial government to grant concessions to Westerners, instead elicited increasingly militant Chinese efforts to halt the traffic. These efforts, in turn, evoked a heightened militancy among the determined traders who had survived the Terranova incident. American traders reconsidered their previous aversion to American naval involvement in China. The USF Congress had received a cool if not unfriendly reception from Americans and Chinese alike when it touched at Canton several times in 1819. When the USF Vincennes anchored at Whampoa in 1830, Latimer, W. H. Low, and other American merchants informed the captain that "delays and impositions peculiar to our

First Edition In-print - Preface THE MAFIAZATION OF SOCIETY "The problem is not so much that there are a lot of corrupt people, but rather that there are so many that the honest are scared of the corrupt." This is how Frank Serpico, an ex-police official in New York, began his narrative. They no longer hide out, but rather attack and accuse those who have not come to terms with them, an agreement they usually call "loyalty." What happens when corruption gets to the point where it controls the police, appoints judges, and runs congress? The corrupt even have their own armies of journalists and lawyers. In Mexico, the brother of ex-president Salinas owns foreign bank accounts containing unexplained millions; he worked with partners in privatization deals carried out by his brother's government.- and, to top it off, an undercover agent of the DEA has connected the accounts with money laundering for a drug cartel. It is impossible to tell the whole story of what happens in Mexico. Let's just say that as the result of an investigation, all the Ministers of a particular state had to resign, all having been implicated in a cartel in the area. A drug trafficker was in prison, and after completing his sentence, he was made director of a bank. It would appear that requirements are not very strict for such a position. In Colombia, there are eleven legislators in jail. Until recently, I had kept a count: one hundred one legislators dead and two hundred seventy journalists murdered. However, it is really impossible to keep a count of the workers who have died and those who are in jail, and those who are not, but who have been indicted. The hero of this story is ex-Minister of justice, Rodrigo Lara Bonilla, the politician who wanted to extradite drug traffickers because he found himself powerless to fight against them in his own country. First, they deposited $12,000 in an account to finance his campaign for senator; then they harassed him for months in congress using their own journalists who accused him daily of corruption; finally, they murdered him. The corrupt have their problems, but anyone who fights seriously against drug trafficking gets killed. Mafia operations to discredit those who work against their interests are impressive and discourage even the most valiant. In Peru, President Fujimori put the Armed Forces to work in the struggle against drug trafficking. First, an army captain asked for refuge and confessed that the army was charging smugglers $15,000 for each helicopter that left with drugs, and then they split up the proceeds. Top authorities denied the story. A short time later, an imprisoned drug dealer appeared before the prosecutor, and the charges against him were such that it took eight long hours just to read the indictment. A lot of people seemed to be involved. A few weeks later an Air Force plane was detained in Canada with 250 kilos on board, and a few days after that, two Navy boats were found to contain drugs. In Bolivia, when ex-President Jaime Paz Zamora took office, he said that he himself did not have a quorum, but that the drug traffickers did have one. He said that he would govern honestly the part of Bolivia that he controlled, but that there was another part under the control of others. In Brazil, I once visited a slum in the company of a legislator and a policeman. We had to ask permission of a gentleman who had a machine gun on a tripod and who let us through only grudgingly. In Argentina, a non-producing country due to its climate, and until recently of low consumption and without cartels as they are known elsewhere, there was a businessman, Alfredo Nallib Yabran. Everybody was afraid of him, and both politicians and journalists were careful not to go against his interests. Some worked directly for him, and others simply wanted to survive. Many know the journalists who work for him; if someone should happen to go against his interests, they immediately attack mercilessly. There is proof of his press operative giving out money at a table in a bar. Three important men of the financial world, a Swiss banker, a Spanish banker, and an ex-Minister of the Economy from Argentina, told me that in 1993 Yabran offered 800 million in cash to buy a majority share of stock in Aerolineas Argentinas. But this is not the most significant fact. Between 1994 and 1995, he managed to get so much control of parliament that he was having a law passed that would have privatized the post office, which he called a "custom-tailored suit." Everyone knew that Yabran would be the future owner of the post office, and the privatization law had a provision that would have authorized

Crowell Company New York ISBN 0-690-01209-8 324 pps. First Edition Out-of-print - Chapter Five CHINA TRADERS, OLD AND NEW At the age of sixteen, I filled a man's place as third mate; at the age of twenty, I was promoted to a command; at the age of twenty-six, I commanded my own ship; at twenty-eight, I abandoned the sea as a profession; at thirty-six, I was at the head of the largest American house in China I had been blessed, by a kind Providence, with a fair amount of success. --Robert Bennet Forbes While Francis Cabot Lowell's Boston Associates were marveling at the success of their Waltham mill and laying the foundations of the great manufacturing city of Lowell, John Perkins Cushing remained in Canton tending the affairs of Perkins Company. For the great China trader Thomas Handasyd Perkins, though he built a short-lived cotton mill of his own along the Charles River in Newton, just west of Boston, and later made some fairly substantial investments in the Lowell millshe was even, for a time, president of the Appleton Companyremained first and foremost a merchant, far and away the leader of Boston's mercantile community. And when it came to weighing his merchant and manufacturing interests over the question of the protective tariff, Perkins chose the side of free trade without hesitation. Cushing had returned home for a brief visit in April, 1807 setting sail again for China after just six weeks. Not yet twenty: he was a full and respected partner in the Perkins firm, one of the most successful trading houses in China. One reason for Cushing's outstanding performance was that he, like many Americans, approached the hong merchants and other Chinese with whom he dealt as equals and treated them with the respect that they thought was their due. This was in sharp contrast to rival European traders, who were accustomed to shouldering the white man's burden and asserting supremacy over people of darker races than their own. In Chinese eyes, Americans remained Fan-Kwae, foreign devils from beyond the borders of civilized society, but their honest and courteous bearing made them somewhat less devilish than Fan-Kwae from other Western lands. Cushing managed to outdo most of his countrymen in gaining all-important respect from his counterparts in China. As late as 1815, it was widely believed by the Chinese merchants that the only truly reliable Americans in Canton were Cushing and Philip Ammidon, at the time representing another American firm, but later an agent for the Perkins interests. So noted was Cushing for his implacable honesty that an agreement by a hong merchant to supply an American supercargo with tea at the market price once specified that if quality and price could not be agreed upon he would be called in as an arbitrator, and "Mr. J. P. Cushing's opinion shall be binding." By the 1820s Cushing was known as the most influential of all the foreigners in Canton. He was, according to young George W. Sturgis, who worked for him in the Perkins firm, "exclusively a man of business and in my opinion, as well calculated for one on a liberal scale as any I have ever met with; in manners the Gentleman, generous, intelligent, and independent, and deservedly esteemed and respected by all who know him." Happily, Cushing had struck up a close business and personal relationship with the hong merchant Houqua, who at his death in 1843 was said to be the richest man in the world. Houqua had dealt with the Americans since the 1780s, and was as famed as Cushing for honest and upright conduct at a time when most Chinese merchants were noted for rascality and dishonesty in their dealings with foreigners. Indeed, Houqua at times displayed a streak of generosity that astounded his American clients. William C. Hunter, who in 1837 joined Russell Company, the successor to Perkins Company, recalled in his old age the experience of a merchant who had suffered considerable losses in Canton. To help the American recoup his losses, Houqua advanced him large sums of money, and after several years the two compared accounts and found that Houqua was out a total of $72,000. The hong merchant then took a promissory note for this amount and locked it away in his strongbox. Fortune continued to frown on the American trader, by now aching to return home but still hoping to repay his debt. "You have been so long away from your own country, why do you not return?" Houqua asked one day. Told that only the unpaid $72,000 kept the American in Canton, Houqua called for his purser and asked for the note. "You and I are number one olo flen," he said to his debtor. "You belong honest man, only no got chance." With that, Houqua ripped the note into tiny pieces and tossed the fragments into his waste basket. "Just now have settee counter," he smiled, "alla

Crowell Company New York ISBN 0-690-01209-8 324 pps. First Edition Out-of-print - Chapter Three VOYAGES OF ADVENTURE: THE OLD CHINA TRADE DAYS "Father," your great-grandfather said to him, "don't worry. A vessel of mine has just come alongside the wharf with a cargo which can buy the whole town of Sudbury." The old man groaned and turned his face to the wall. "To think," he said, "that I must die and know my son a liar." -The Late George Apley Making her way through Boston Harbor on a fine early August day in 1790, the ship Columbia fired a federal salute to honor the colors fluttering over the fortifications on Castle Island. Soldiers on the ramparts replied in kind with thirteen guns, one for each state in the infant union. As the ship eased into her moorings, Captain Robert Gray ordered his men to repeat the patriotic gesture, which was echoed with three cheers from the throng of Bostonians gathered at the wharves to greet the safe return of the eighty- four-foot vessel that had set sail from the Nantasket roads nearly three years before. Two days later, the Columbian Centinel reported that the ship had arrived back at her home port from "a voyage of adventure" A voyage of adventure, indeed. Bankrolled by six merchants-three from Boston, one from Cambridge, one from Salem, and one from New York-the Columbia had put to sea with a sister sloop, Lady Washington, before dawn on September 30, 1787. A year later, the ships bobbed at anchor in Nootka Sound on the Northwest Coast of America2,500 miles from Boston as the crow flies, but some 22,000 roundabout miles by sail around Cape Horn through scantly charted waters. There, in territory under the nominal dominion of His Most Catholic Majesty, the king of Spain, the Bostonians bartered a cargo of cheap iron chisels for the sleek black sea otter pelts so coveted by the mandarins of China. In Canton, the ship's cargo of 1,050 otter pelts brought $21,410 from the trading firm of Shaw Randall. But after deductions for commissions, repairs, and other expenses, only $11,241.51 was left to invest in the return lading of 21,462 pounds of Bohea tea. The tea was damaged in transit to Boston, and the backers wound up losing money on the venture. But the Columbia 's globegirdling voyage had inaugurated the great China trade that was to be a fount of Boston's wealth for nearly half a century to come. It had also helped set in motion the great western migration that would in time push the boundaries of the United States across prairies and mountains to the far shores of the Pacific Ocean. Boston is more closely linked with the China trade than is any other American city. Its ships, however, were not the first American vessels to put in at the bustling anchorage of Whampoa, some twelve miles down the Pearl River from the trading city of Canton. That honor belongs to the aptly named Empress of China, a New York vessel that returned to home port in May, 1785, with a cargo of tea and silk. And before the Columbia arrived at Whampoa, some fourteen American ships, from New York, Philadelphia, and Salem, had preceded it. The owners of these ships had faced the common problem of finding a suitable medium of exchange for trade with the Chinese, who in general would accept only hard cash or Oriental goods with which they were already familiar. For the Celestial Empire to which American ships set forth with such great enterprise was not a savage land where ignorant natives would exchange their treasures for a few trinkets and tools. The Chinese were a highly developed and self-sufficient nation with little need and less desire for what goods the Americans might offer them. The British, with outposts in India and other parts of Asia, could offer the Chinese the produce of their own continent, and were also in a much better position than the Americans to come up with silver for the purchase of silks and teas. So short were the American traders when it came to trade goods that the British at first had little fear of competition from them; assessing the possibility of American commerce with China shortly after the Revolution, Lord Sheffield remarked that it just wouldn't happen, since the newly independent colonies had "neither money with which to buy Oriental goods, nor cargoes to supply this deficiency." For a time, ginseng seemed to be one answer. This harmless, totally useless root, prized by the Chinese as a restorative drug, was native to Manchuria and Korea, and also to the Hudson River valley. But ginseng was limited in both supply and market; some other commodity was needed if the Boston merchants were to capture a share of the China trade. John Ledyard, a divinity student turned vagabond seaman, had long been telling tales of having seen furs purchased on the Northwest Coast of America for six

From: David Guyatt [EMAIL PROTECTED] Catherine, Yes I have a copy of Dope Inc which Duncan Roads very generously sent me a couple of years back. I'm very cautious of Larouche and his interpretation of events and agenda, although he undoubtedly has conducted some good research. Years ago I read William Stevenson's excellent book "The Bormann Brotherhood." In this, Stevenson recounts an interview he conducted in 1951 in Jakarta at the urging of Ian Fleming of Dr. Horace Greeley Hjalmar Schacht, Hitler's banker. Schahct, as you know, was the father in law of Otto Skorzeny and so close to Bormann and the "Brotherhood." Schacht viewed Hitler, Geobbels, Goring and many other leading Nazi's as crude and wanted to "win control over foreign economies by stealth and cunning." Maybe, after the war, with Bormanncarefully investing his massive assets from South America, Schahct's imperative for control of foreign economies via "stealth cunning" became the game plan - at least along lines that incorporated many leading international businessmen who were always soft on or fully supported core nazi ideals? This is little more than a back boiler thought but one worth pursuing, I think. From: Catherine Austin Fitts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 08, 2000 1:39 AM Subject: RE: [CIA-DRUGS] Who is the Octopus From: "Catherine Austin Fitts" [EMAIL PROTECTED] David:Some thoughts. On my drive from city to city today, I have been thinking about your post of this morning. The key issue that I have been trying to grapple with in most of what I have been writing (and hence trying to figure out) is the issue of learning speeds or learning metabolism. I believe there is a concerted effort...intentionalto maintain the 50/6 gap that you framed by doing things that lowered the learning speed of the American people. For many years I thought this was unintended consequences. Increasingly, as I learn from many of the members of this list and read more and more about organized crime, the patterns emerge of a much more centrally organized cartel...where in the asset businesses or in finance...they are related. In America, the pattern is one of closing the gap with things that lower fundamental productivity...this increase the addiction...again at the expense of learning speeds. The metaphor of an economy becoming addicted to drugs is similar to that of a body becoming addicted to drugs. It is a liquidation process. I have been reading Dope, Inc. by the LaRouche team. I would welcome folks comments on what they think of this work. I am struck by how much it resonates with what I have been learning and my intuition on how the money works in numerous industries and places. Dope Inc reminds me of the importance of our moving into numerics that describe and frame the dynamics of what we are dealing with. The book was published in 1986 and does a good job of trying to do that. Obviously, I have no sense of if they got it accurate or not. The DOJ effort to put LaRouche away would indicate that it may be as useful as it feels. One of the things that most struck me is their description of why they believe that the global drug trade is fairly well centralized as a world wide cartel. It's a big planet, and all organizations have factions and squabbling etc. Consequently, my view is that things are always more organic than folks who are angry seem to believe. At the same time, the centralization of a "global world government" through organized crime is the only hypothesis I have so far that explains all the things we are dealing with. That said, the hypothesis---to have any legs---has to answer the question who governs and how and how are they chosen. Since I can not answer that question.it leads me to want to start framing numerics until I have it. I would recommend that you take a look at this one, if you have not. I would be curious if any of what they say about Britain and gold sort with your take on things. I have no idea if there is an Octopus. At the same time, I believe that there is a shared intelligence that is running the global economy, it is other than what we are told to believe, and its organizing principle is warfare and organized crime. So often we dance up to this question and then back away for fear of looking into the abyss perhaps. One one hand I believe that many people in it believe that if they do not do it, they will lose. They are a prisoner of the old model mindset. On the other hand, I believe that there are more human and coercive forces that need to be looked at and understood. What is happening is a choice of a living intelligence. The dominator model does not have to be. For long periods in our history we choice the partnership model--what to me is the Solari Investment Model. We are choosing

From: "David Guyatt" [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's a small world. Fox Pitt Kelton - a blast from the past! I was 21 years old and Oliver Fox Pitt was one of the senior men at White Weld Co., London where I then worked. In those days in the City it was customary for junior (young) staff to address senior staff by title - for example "Mr. Fox-Pitt" - but having a proclivity for spoonerisms at the time I called him "Mr. Fix Pott." Ha, ha, ha. His shocked face was a picture astonishment I shall never forget. Within a couple of months he left to establish Fox Pitt Kelton following defeat in a boardroom battle to take control of WW Co. But it's a small world. Another boardroom casualty was Stani Yassakovitch - an urbane White Russian Polo player - who went on to become Chairman of Western American Bank (WAB) which later became European American Bank (EAB). EAB is most famous for stepping in and taking over the failed Franklin National Bank after Michel Sindona had sucked it dry. Stani attended my City wedding "good luck" party along with David Mulford (if memory serves) who was soon to be seconded to run the Saudi Investment Authority (SAMA) and direct the flow of petrodollars - following the 1973 oil shock - to the appropriate Eurobanks in London. On the Barings front, I contacted ING at the time they bought Barings fro £1.00 asking if I could get access to the Barings files. I was politely told to clear off. The Barings story is still subject to state secrecy. After it crashed a regular visitor to its offices was Sir John Cuckney - a long serving senior MI5 officer. What was he doing visiting Barings -- cleaning out the sensitive files, or maybe something else? But, as I say, it's a small world. A few years earlier, Cuckney was the Chairman of Midland Bank Group International Trade Services (MibGits for short) which wholly Midland Bank Aval Ltd, where I was a Director and Treasurer. MibGits had a Defence Sales Dept., staffed by half a dozen serving MI6 officers including Stephan Kock a former SAS type who was once head of "Group 13" - a team that operates for the Foreign Office by providing "services to the nation." In short Group 13 is an assassination team. When I was conducting research for an article exposing 13 I spoke to one writer I knew who earlier wanted to write a book about this outfit. One day he was grabbed in the street, dragged into the back of a van, had a gun placed against his temple and asked if he would prefer to write a book on another subject. He choose to write about Military Police Dogs, he told me. Fortunately, I didn't experience anything similar or I would have done exactly the same, I guess. However, I did interview Gerald James, the former Chairman of Astra - a leading arms manufacturer working with the Thatcher government during the 1980's which was deeply embroiled in the Arms to Iraq affair and that connected very closely to Oliver North's "Enterprise.". Stephan Kock, meanwhile, was a director of Astra's subsidiary BMARC as was the notorious Jonathan Aitken, the former Government Minister who was recently released from prison where he had been sent for lying in the Al Fayed libel trial. Interestingly, Gerald James did business wirth and had accounts with Midland Bank Aval - although I had never met him during those years. Earlier in his career, Gerald was with Barings who he joined in 1968 - just a year before I joined WW Co. In his book "In The Public Interest" he reveals that Barings had "connections in pre-revolutionary Russia," and had been purchasing agents for the Imperial Army Navy. He adds that Barings had "huge amounts of money on deposit from those days from the Imperial Army Navy and various people who disappeared in the revolution - none of it had been paid back when I was there." Maybe it was this money that Cuckney was after? It is still not clear why ING bought Barings at the time it crashed. Eddie George and the Bank of England were desperate to find another bank to take it over, but one by one they refused. So some deal must have been cut with ING to incur the burden of Barings. One thing I can say about ING is that it is one of those banks that sit at the very heart of the international financial establishment and is often represented at Bilderberg Conferences, for example. One thing I can also say about Barings is that Nick Leeson was not the "lone trader" and did not bring down the bank signle-handed. He had help but how and why remains secret to this day. But one further question remains unanswered. Why would a syndicate of twenty Japanese banks fund Barings derivatives business which was located in Singapore and amounted to three or four times greater than the banks entire net worth? It was Singapore where Leeson operated from and where all the approx. £1 billion was lost. Leeson traded only the Japanese market which crashed suddenly following the Kobi earthquake. The word Yakuza seems oddly fitting? From:

I've read many accounts of the Octopus - with Carol Marshall's THE LAST CIRCLE ranking top most in my mind to date. But the actual identity of the Octopus remains uncertain. This week I read Mae Brussel's essay "The Nazi Connection to the JFK Assassination." Whoaa! This was written almost twenty years ago in 1983, and Mae Brussel looks like she hit the nail on the head back then: "In A Study of a Master Spy, published in London in 1961, Bob Edwards, a member of Parliament and Kenneth Dunne, presented documentary evidence that Allen Dulles of the CIA carried on secret conferences with representatives of Hitler's SS Security Office in February and March 1943. They learned that "Official Washington knew Martin Bormann, Deputy Fuhrer of Hitler's Germany, master-minded the international 'Die Spinne' (Spider) underground organization which is planning to revive nazism as soon as West Germany is adequately rearmed by the United States. Official Washington seems disinterested." With John J. McCloy, Allen Dulles and J. Edgar Hoover in control of the Kennedy assassination investigation, these nazi connections were buried. The Bunge Corporation, Argentina Germany. The stock market dropped 24 points in 27 minutes when news of President Kennedy's assassination was announced. 2.6 million shares were sold off. It was the greatest panic since 1929. Somebody made a huge profit selling short in many markets. Somebody made half a billion dollars in one day. Coincidentally, the Allied Crude Vegetable Oil Refining Corporation, headed by New Jersey commodities dealer Anthony De Angeles, crashed the same day, driving the market down. Allied Crude was controlled by U.S. American Bunge Corporation and financially controlled by a group of share-holders headquartered in Argentina, known as "Bunge and Born, LDA." Business Week of October 19, 1963, one month before the Kennedy assassination, described the Born family in Argentina, the biggest shareholders for Bunge, as being from Europe, specifically Germany. Everything about Bunge has German influence. They have a $2 billion annual business in 80 countries. There are over 110 offices, all linked by Telex and under-the-ocean telegraph channels. The Bunge Corporation is referred to as "the Octopus." One of the best "Bormann" books ever written in my opinion is Paul Manning's "Martin Bormann - Nazi in Exile." Manning was a highly regarded journalist. His story reveals how Bormann was the master-mind behind the Nazi capital flight programme beginning 1944 - once it was clear that the Third Reich was going down the tubes. One significant implication was that the "Battle of the Bulge" was a delaying tactic to ensure sufficient time for the capital flight programme to become effective. Thereafter Bormann escaped to Argentina and safety where he re-invested the vast assets and Nazi war plunder into the stock markets of the US Europe via 750 corporation Bormann established in secrecy during the last year of the war. Bormann was not a dogmatic Nazi but rather believed in laizze faire capitalism with a capital C, as

From: Brian Downing Quig [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think McCain will take the fight to the convention. Remember Taft led Eisenhour in delegates going in to the primary and he took it away!! This is why he will continue. The governor of New York and Bush conspired to keep McCain's name off the New York ballot. A federal judge ruled foul. In fact he accused bush of TRYING fix the election. Now two Texas billionaires pumped $2.5 million into attack adds on TV against McCain in New York 4 days out.. They tried to hide their identities. This is such a text book example of what McCain has been calling soft money that it is startling that Bush would so blunder. And guess what. These billionaires used the same PR firm that the governor Patchy (sp?) uses. Bush is left denying that he knew about it. This one is not going to go away. It demonstrates the Bush family trait of cheating. The laws that govern us do not govern them. Th biggest issue of all is the fact that the ads were lies. One issue that was hit hard was McCain being against clean air. What a joke. Texas is the most polluted oil stained state in the country. I have had about 5 meeting with McCain on hydrogen fuel that burns with no pollution. McCain will burry Bush on this issue. I have never seen the mass media push a candidate as strongly as Bush was pushed last night. And is it not rude to keep talking about McCain quitting when it is clear he will not? It may not seem like it but the billionaires paid a dear price for last night's victories.

But, last week when I made my ranting rave on this list about McCain being the chosen one I was just trying to stop the rampant speculation, the audience belief that they could change the play. Just like with Y2K I recall now how Genghis Kahn won many of his battles - without a fight. He sent riders out ahead who screamed and wailed about how vicious and ruthless Kahn's armies were, the atrocities they committed. When the barbarians arrived at the gates, the towns, wearied and despondent, surrendered without a fight. I must be honest and say that if "W" wins in November both Cele Castillo and I believe that our lives will end shortly thereafter. I don't have that fear with Gore.

No need to keep it secret. Looks like the shadow Government and the Powers that be know how to manipulate all of us. Just like with Y2K, we grow weary of living on the edge. We spend our vital resources, energy and spirit in the wrong places. We attack the wrong points in the enemy's defenses. We must do everything possible to see that the Gore/Bush fight is to the death for them - not us. What we must have is open hearings on Volume II and the biggest possible demonstrations against the other side of the corporate money machine that benefits from all of the drug capital - the WTO. Here is what Catherine wrote me last October. Since she has twice posted my private messages, I am sure that she will not object. The secret's out anyway after tonight.

You would have thousands of dollars more each year to spend as you choose -- to improve your quality of life, to give your children a better education, to help your church or favorite charity, or to save for your retirement. And it's the income tax that gives the federal government so much power to control your life -- to hire armies of bureaucrats to write endless volumes of regulations, and to bribe state and local governments to go along with their schemes. Could America survive without an income tax? Certainly. There are hundreds of departments, agencies, and programs that are not even provided for in the Constitution, but now make up the majority of the federal budget. Without them there would be no need for the income tax. What would happen to your favorite government program? Most government programs duplicate functions that would be better done by private business or could be more effectively provided through private charity. Without an income tax, you would have the money to pay for these services or support these causes yourself, without wasting your money on government bureaucracy.

No. The Libertarian Party is opposed to any new taxes. http://www.lp.org/ The Constitution Party A Flat Sales Tax would be much fairer to everyone and eliminate the need for the IRS as it is.

Orlin Grabbe/A - The Religion Business "Mistakes Were Made" Pope to apologize for the Crusades, the Inquisition, etc. THE Vatican yesterday paved the way for the Pope's long-awaited mea culpa with the release of a document drawn up to explain the Church's increasingly controversial decision to apologise for past wrongs. Asking for forgiveness has been a leitmotif of John Paul II's papacy, and the mea culpa will be pronounced by him in a solemn ceremony this Sunday. No one knows exactly what he will say, although there has been speculation that he may mention anti-Semitism, the failure of Christians to rush to the aid of the Jews in the Second World War and the wrongs committed during the Crusades and the Inquisition. No pope has gone to such lengths to seek forgiveness for past sins, said Joaquin Navarro-Valls, the Vatican spokesman. By "repenting for the errors of the past, and instances of infidelity, inconsistency and slowness to act", the Vatican said it was seeking a "recognition of the truth". Through this it aimed to achieve reconciliation and peace with other cultures and religions. "Because of her responsibility to truth," the document says, "the Church cannot cross the threshold of the new Millennium without encouraging her children to purify themselves." However, the document released yesterday avoids listing specific wrongs. The Pope's homily is apparently still being written and Vatican officials yesterday appeared to be setting limits on how the apology should be viewed. "It cannot assume the aspect of a spectacular self-flagellation," said Cardinal Roger Etchegaray, president of the Vatican's 2000 Jubilee Committee. The document, Memory and Reconciliation: the Church and the Faults of the Past, was written by an international commission of theologians. Rather than listing specific wrongs, it examines the theological reasons for its move, calling it an "act of courage and humility". The document touches on some historical cases which it says are worthy of an "examination of conscience" by individual believers. These include the relationship of Christians and Jews, the "use of force in the Service of Truth" - although the word Inquisition is omitted - the division of Christians and the Church's share of responsibility for the "evils of today". The document admits that "the hostility or diffidence of numerous Christians towards Jews in the course of time" was "a sad historical fact". While the Holocaust was "certainly the result of the pagan ideology that was Nazism", the "spiritual resistance and concrete action" against it of some Christians was "not that which might have been expected from Christ's followers". The document said that believers shared "some responsibility" for some of the "evils of today", including a climate of secularism and ethical relativism, religious indifference, the denial of the right to life of the unborn child sanctioned in pro-abortion legislation and a "great indifference to the cry of the poor in entire sectors of the human family". "We have mentioned a few errors, but we could have had a very long list . . . I fear the list will never be finished," said Fr Jean-Louis Bruges, one of the theologians who drew up the document. The Roman Catholic Church has been divided over whether it should acknowledge, as the Pope has desired, its past wrongs. Some on the theological commission are said to have argued that by so doing the Church ran the risk of discrediting its own doctrine and helping to "confirm prejudices" against it. The document calls for reciprocation of the mea culpa by other churches. The history of various religions, it states, is marked by "intolerance, superstition, complicity with unjust powers and the denial of the dignity and freedom of conscience", adding: "Christians have been no exception, and they are aware that all are sinners before God."

The Presidential primaries are underway, and some thought should be given to the antecedents of one of the probable or possible Democratic candidates: Al Gore. Let's begin this curious but true tale with the story of the late Armand Hammer. Hammer was a dedicated Communist, and the son of the founder of the American Communist Party. He was a confidant of Lenin's. He maintained close ties with both the Roosevelt administration and Joseph Stalin. Hammer was a money launderer for the Communists and Al Gore's father became rich working with Armand Hammer. Al Gore Sr. worked for Hammer for a $500 thousand salary, and ultimately that money gained them a Senate seat. This is the source of Al Gore's family's money, and gives one clue to the source of his liberalism. Everyone has heard of the Communist or Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, but not many have heard of the story of how it came about, how it was actually financed, and by who. This sorry and ultimately murderous tale begins with the rich capitalist banker Jacob Schiff of the New York firm of Kuhn Loeb. In 1917, he gives the Communist Revolutionary Leon Trotsky $30 million in gold coin for the purpose of fomenting a revolution in Russia. Today, the buying power of $30 million in gold would be measured in the billions of dollars. Trotsky, accompanied by 275 Communist revolutionaries set sail for Helsinki from New York to enter Russia and begin the revolution. The consequences of that are well known. So much for the conflict between Capitalists and Communists. In 1997, another link was forged in this saga of the Communist agents. Karenna Gore, most recently in the newspapers over a drug issue, gets married. Who does she choose to marry? The answer is Andrew Schiff, great-grandson of Jacob Schiff, the financier of the Communist Revolution. When you talk to your friends, be sure to mention that Gore comes from a family of betrayers, and the link continues unbroken. Over 100 million innocent people came to their deaths through the Communists. That is between ten and twenty times as many as those that the Nazis murdered. To the extent that we won the Cold War, do we now want one of them in the White House? Can a leopard change its spots?
[CTRL] Fwd: [CIA-DRUGS] Hillary and Mena
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
In a message dated 3/7/2000 7:06:01 PM Central Standard Time,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] quotes Linda Minor, who quotes Reed-Cummings
"Compromised" as follows:
1. A trusted courier (such as Lasater) deposits the cash in a bank or
banks
(like Worthen) under various corporate names. No federal banking attention
is drawn to the deposits since the banker (like Stephens) waives the
requirement of filling out the CTR's.
2. ADFA attracts a "preferred client" (CIA Proprietary) in need of a
"loan." This client can be a firm or individual from within the state,
which is involved with this secret group (i.e. POM and MRL) or even an
out-of-state corporation (i.e. Lasater's Angel Fire project in New Mexico),
since ADFA's charter allows it to underwrite business outside Arkansas.
3. The financial banking firm (Stephens Co.) announces it is seeking
capital to underwrite a bond isue to develop the money needed for the
"loan." The bonds will be guaranteed by the state since ADFA will be the
issuer, thereby eliminating the SEC scrutiny of the "buyers" (Lasater's fake
corporations) of the bonds, and reducing or eliminating the collateral
requirements needed by the "client."
4. Lasater announces that he has "sold" the bonds to various customers
(Lasater's fake corporations which have large cash reserves on deposit at
the Stephens bank).
5. ADFA handles all the paperwork and contracts at the time of loan
"closing," becomes the guarantor (co-signer) of the loan, and retains the
right to "sell" the entire loan package to another financial institution in
the future, if it wishes.
6. Lasater's customers (his fake corporations) issue checks to Stephens
Co. earmarked for this bond issue. Stephens issues a check to ADFA in order
to buy the bonds for Lasater's customers, after deducting commissions (clean
money) on the transaction for his firm (Stephens Co.) and Lasater's
(Lasater Co.). The bond certificates are then issued and are held by
Lasater's "customers" as security and collateral.
7. ADFA issues a check to the "client" (the CIA proprietary) and it builds
or buys whatever it needs in order to comply with the conditions of the
loan.
8. The "client" puts the purchased equipment to use and creates a positive
cash flow as any legitimate business would and makes monthly payments in
order to retire the bonds. The principal and interest received by the
lender ("lasater's customers) is clean.
9. At any point during the life of the loan, ADFA is free to find a "buyer"
for the entire loan package, retire the debt owed to Lasater's customers and
distance itself from the "client's operation" if the CIA wants to "sell off"
the assets.
Much of this is correct, some is not. Two observations:
(A) The only check ADFA ever wrote (according to Norma Rowell -- former
Pres. of the Ark. private investigator's guild, and whom I hired when doing
research for my book "Circle of Death: Clinton's Climb to the Presidency")
was to Park-O-Meter, Inc. ("POM"), which was owned by Seth Ward (Webb
Hubbell's father-in-law), in the principal amount of $2.5 million. At the
time, Webb Hubbell was on the Board of Directors of POM. ADFA was in the
business of underwriting or guaranteeing loans.
(B) Worthen Bank was rarely involved in the money-laundering schemes,
because its president and CEO (Jackson Stephens), and controlling
shareholders at the time (Jackson Stephens and Mochtar Riady -- of the Lippo
Group) were too smart for that. Plus, Worthen was under a lot of scrutiny by
the FHLBB and FDIC, as was Madison Guaranty Savings Loan (substitute the
FSLIC and then, later on the RTC, for the FDIC in the case of Madison, as it
was an SL, not a bank).
The Arkansas banks that were involved in money laundering, and which
allowed Barry Seal, et al., to "smurf" black money, were the Bank of
Kingston, the Bank of Cherry Valley, the Perry County Bank, FirstSouth of
Pine Bluff, the Bank of Paragould, and the Union Bank of Mena. You may recall
that the president and CEO of the Perry County Bank and the Bank of Cherry
Valley, pleaded guilty in 1996, to wire fraud and violations of the Bank
Secrecy Act of 1970 (that's the federal law that requires the filing of
currency transaction reports [CTRs] with the IRS, when someone deposits cash
in excess of $10,000) during the Whitewater criminal investigation. The other
guys hired high-powered lawyers, including the Washington, D.C., firm of
Clifford Warnke (Clark Clifford's firm), to defend them. They pleaded to
lesser-included offenses.
But I think it's even more interesting to note the following: Little Rock
"bond daddy" Dan Lasater (Clinton's mother's boyfriend) seems to have had his
fingers in more pies than most of us will ever know. Most of you know that
Lasater was a key cog in the Arkansas-CIA-Mafia drug trade in the '80s. In
1985 he rented an apartment at the Vantage Point in Little Rock, for Roger

[CTRL] A Look at Voter Thinking
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! A Look at Voter Thinking Mar 7, 2000 8:30 PM By LAURA MECKLER A look at voter thinking Tuesday, according to interviews at polling places conducted by Voter News Service. REPUBLICANS -THE BIG PICTURE: Texas Gov. George W. Bush rode strong support from women, the religious right, voters without college degrees and Republicans. Arizona Sen. John McCain won the votes of independents, crossover Democrats, liberals and people who think abortion should be legal. -CRUCIAL QUALITIES: Bush won huge majorities of voters looking for a candidate who can win in November or who best represents conservative values. McCain won among voters who were looking for someone who is not a typical politician or someone who stands up for what they believe in. -RELIGIOUS RIGHT: In New York and Ohio, McCain's attacks on some Christian conservatives appeared to hurt him. Those who said his comments affected their vote somewhat or a great deal overwhelmingly favored Bush. Those who said McCain's comments didn't matter preferred McCain. -ROMAN CATHOLICS: McCain, who severely criticized Bush for visiting anti-Catholic Bob Jones University, had a stronger showing among Roman Catholic voters. In New England, he won both Catholics and Protestants, but took Catholics by a wider margin. In New York, he won Catholics, but Bush took Protestants. In Missouri, Bush won the Catholic vote, but not as overwhelmingly as he took the Protestant vote. -IN NOVEMBER: Democrat Al Gore would fare better if Bush, rather than McCain, were the Republican nominee. Nearly one in five Republican voters said they would support Gore vs. Bush. But less than 10 percent said they would vote for Gore if he were running against McCain. -SMARTS: About one in three voters said Bush did not have the knowledge needed to serve effectively as president, and in some states it was much higher - more than 40 percent in Massachusetts and Vermont. -TAXES VS. SOCIAL SECURITY: Bush was the winner among those who thought cutting taxes was more important than strengthening Social Security. McCain won those who preferred Social Security. IN NEW ENGLAND: -Demographics: McCain won among men and women and in every age and education group. He took all but the poorest voters. -Party breakout: Nearly half the voters were independents, and McCain took 70 percent of those votes. Bush won Republicans, but it was closer. McCain won liberals and moderates; Bush took conservatives. -Religious right: Bush took most of their votes, but just 10 percent of New England voters consider themselves Christian conservatives. ELSEWHERE: -In Ohio, independents strongly favored McCain, but they accounted for only about one in five voters. And some seven in 10 Republicans preferred Bush. -In Georgia, more than a fourth of voters said they were Christian conservatives, and they went for Bush by an 8-to-1 margin. Others also supported Bush, though by a closer margin. -In Maryland, 90 percent of voters were Republicans, and they overwhelmingly preferred Bush. McCain took the independent vote, but it was too small to help him. -In Missouri, McCain had the edge among the one-fourth of voters who had never voted in a GOP primary. --- DEMOCRATS -DEMOGRAPHICS: Al Gore won every income, education and age group, but Bill Bradley did best with the most educated voters and the richest - those earning more than $100,000 per year. -CORE DEMOCRATS: Blacks and Hispanics preferred Gore over Bradley by 8-to-1 margins, and Gore was winning 3-1 among union households. He also won a solid majority of the most liberal and the most conservative voters. -IN NOVEMBER: Just 7 percent of Democratic voters would cross over and vote for Bush if he is Gore's opponent in the fall. But twice as many would vote for McCain over Gore. -ABORTION: Bradley, who campaigned on his consistent and strong abortion rights record, had his best showing among those who said abortion should always be legal. Still, Gore easily won this group. -GOP VIEWS: About half of Democratic voters had a favorable view of McCain, but only about one in six said the same about Bush. -HEALTH CARE: Bradley made health care the centerpiece of his campaign, but four in 10 voters said Gore's more modest plan was better and about three in 10 said they were about the same. -CLINTON BACKLASH: Voters who disapproved of Clinton, both in his job and as a person, were more likely to vote for Bradley. -ISSUES: Bradley won among those who cared most about campaign finance reform. But Gore was the solid winner in every other category, including issues that Bradley campaigned on: health care, race relations and abortion. -QUALITIES: Bradley did well among those looking for someone with new ideas and who is not a typical politician - but not many people said that was the most important quality. Most Democrats
[CTRL] America's 'war' with China
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! -- -- America's 'war' with China -- -- The war begins at dawn as over 100,000 invasion troops, in three massive waves, surge across narrow waters to find a morning beachhead on the Taiwanese shores. The first wave of 100,000 red troops is soon followed by up to seven more waves of 100,000 Chinese soldiers, for a total of eight Chinese armies hurled into a terrific assault. As part of the pre-invasion attack, huge numbers of People's Liberation Army Air Force jets streak across the waters to bomb Taiwanese air bases. In the skies, hundreds of missiles, and thousands of MiGs overwhelm the small Taiwanese Air Force. One or two of the bases continue to function but are soon swept aside by the tide of red MiGs. Taiwanese cities are seen on global television taking direct hits from missile after missile, launched by the 2nd Artillery Corps from inside the Chinese mainland. One or two of the Asian cities disappear in a blinding flash, as nuclear-tipped missiles take out strategic ports and critical military facilities. In and around the skies of Taiwan, U.S., Japanese and Asian ally fighter jets frantically hurl themselves in fruitless attacks to stem the tide. F-117A Stealth bombers fly bold and effective strikes from Okinawa until a direct hit from a Chinese ballistic missile closes the base and kills thousands. At sea, a massive force of U.S. carriers converges from two different directions; one from the Indian Ocean and another from across the Pacific. The forces are soon spotted by Chinese satellites using purchased American technology and are targeted. Each group is attacked by waves of Chinese bombers and missiles one thousand miles from Taiwan, with each wave growing larger as they approach. In the end, the Chinese sink two nuclear aircraft carriers and a major portion of the U.S. fleet in a grinding assault of suicide planes. All is lost. Taiwan falls and begins a dark period of subject occupation by the communist forces. America enters a protracted war with China. This scenario has been played out at the highest levels inside the Pentagon, using advanced war game systems. It does not end well for America. However, one other war game recently played inside the defense establishment had a very different result. There are many Chinese military weaknesses, but there is one critical weak link in its plan to take Taiwan, that of submarine warfare. The leader in submarine war is America, and despite the years of Clinton neglect, the U.S. Navy silent service still rules supreme over the world's oceans. There is one and only one hope that can stem the tide -- sink the landing ships full of PLA troopers and save Taiwan. The American Pacific nuclear submarine force responds with a single order, "Sink 'em!" No Chinese vessel on or below the surface survives for very long. The seas around Taiwan are filled with torpedoes, sea mines, the dying and the dead. The Chinese Army invasion of Taiwan drowns within sight of the mainland as the first wave is sunk in a fruitless attempt to cross the open waters. The Chinese Navy disappears without firing a shot. Without its warships and landing craft, the Chinese Army cannot swim. Before the hapless generals in Beijing can react to the disaster at sea, a second attack begins deep inland, behind their lines. Suddenly, and without warning, Tomahawk missiles rise from the sea surface, flying over the mainland, destroying air bases, missile sites and Chinese command posts. Operating closely with B-2 bombers, the silent service attacks the Chinese mainland in repeated blows aimed at the Chinese military command. Several Chinese warlords die in the precision strikes. Chinese air power tries to respond but the futile effort has no effect on an unseen foe able to fire at will into almost any Chinese city. U.S. strike aircraft flying from untouched bases move forward to clear the skies as jubilant Taiwanese citizens greet the first American paratroopers and Patriot missile batteries. American carriers arrive safely to reinforce Taiwan, unhindered by the crippled Chinese Army Air Force. Finally, Aegis cruisers escorting the carriers do battle with the remaining Chinese missile forces and defeat them in a first-ever duel outside the Earth's atmosphere. The swift force of U.S. Navy Los Angeles attack boats, led by the first Sea Wolf class submarine, sweep the seas clean between China and Taiwan. The red invasion force disappears beneath the straits and into history next to the Spanish Armada. The game ends with U.S. Navy attack subs returning home with broomsticks tied to their masts. Taiwan buries its dead and begins to rebuild. Yet, can we stop the coming war before it
[CTRL] US Admiral: China Unlikely to Attack Taiwan
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! US Admiral: China Unlikely to Attack Taiwan UPI March 8, 2000 The top United States military officer in the Pacific says despite China's tough rhetoric on Taiwan, he does not see any preparation for a large-scale military operation or exercise, although China does continue to deploy missiles that could reach the independence-minded island. Nevertheless, Adm. Dennis Blair, commander in chief of U.S. Pacific Command, said China cannot successfully invade and control Taiwan. "They would not be successful in taking it and holding it," Blair said Tuesday at the Pentagon. "I think that's the military reality underlying where we are right now, and that's what underlies the move toward a peaceful resolution" of reunification with Taiwan. "They are capable of doing a lot of damage to Taiwan with the several hundred missiles that they have, with the navy and the air force that they have," he said. "Any sort of conflict in that part of the world would cause a lot of damage and casualties," he said. Moreover, such a campaign is unlikely in his estimation, because it will cause "terrific economic hardship," which would be contrary to China's goals for economic growth. "China's top priorities have to do with economic and technological reform and taking care of its people, and it knows that conflict would destroy all of the progress it is making in trying to join the world economy," he said. Blair visited Beijing just three days after China issued its controversial "white paper" on Taiwan, which threatened to use force if Taiwan did not agree to a schedule to begin reunification with mainland China. "Their statement on the white paper is something they believe. They think force is the ultimate weapon in their tool kit, but I don't see near-term sorts of preparation to use it," Blair said. "I think the present signs are positive, in the near term." -- Copyright 2000 by United Press International. All rights reserved. **COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

Rick Bowmer/AP Clinton is seeking legislation that would require safety locks on guns and background checks for gun show consumers "We are poles apart," said Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, chairman of a House-Senate negotiating committee charged with writing a compromise juvenile justice bill containing gun control provisions. Clinton called on Congress to pass a gun bill by the April 20 anniversary of the Columbine High School slayings a year ago. "How many people have to get killed before we do something?" he asked. A week after the fatal shooting of Michigan first-grader Kayla Rolland, Clinton met privately with the 6-year-old girl's mother, Veronica McQueen. In a television interview earlier, McQueen said, "I just don't want to see another parent have to bury another baby over this, over something that is preventable, something that is very, very preventable." "Eight months is long enough," the President said during a Washington press conference Tuesday, referring to the time that has elapsed since the House and Senate reached a stalemate over two different gun control bills. The president called for a special session with Congressional leaders after a 6-year-old girl was shot to death last week by a fellow first-grade classmate in her Michigan classroom. Clinton called the one-hour meeting a "very good discussion" and urged the House and Senate to resume its conference meetings and pass a compromise. While Republicans said they agreed with the president on such measures as child safety locks on handguns and denying guns to juvenile offenders, Republican Congressman Henry Hyde said a major sticking point of the White House bill concerns laws that would virtually eliminate gun shows, known as the "gun show loophole." The president made several pleas for Congress to close the "gun show loophole" during the press conference. Hatch told FOXNews Channel background checks at gun shows would not have prevented Columbine, or any of the juvenile gun violence that brought tragedy to places like Peducah, Sky and Seattle. Hatch said resuming the Congressional conference would have a "polarizing effect," and that the gun control made up only one percent of the proposed legislation, called the Juvenile Crime Bill. The president is also calling for a ban on the import of large-capacity ammunition clips and a system of photo IDs for gun owners. Troubling Statistics Clinton had hoped the publicization of a study showing that every day in America, 13 children are killed by firearms would be his secret weapon to break the gun legislation stalemate. The president was expected to cite Justice Department statistics during his meeting with lawmakers showing that the number of youths killed with a firearm increased sharply between 1987 and 1993, while other types of homicide remained constant. The statistics, culled from the Juvenile Offenders and Victims 1999 national Report, showed that the proportion of juveniles killed with a firearm peaked at 61 percent in 1993. Since then, the proportion has declined to 56 percent in 1997. The study also found that since 1980, one in four murders of juveniles involved a juvenile offender. Nearly 38,000 juveniles were murdered between 1980 and 1997. Jonathan Alcorn/ZUMA This Brownin automatic has a chamber lock that prevents the gun from being loaded An Eight Month Stalemate Lawmakers have been unable to reach a compromise and have not met since August to discuss what Clinton calls "common sense" gun laws. The Senate version calls for a three-day waiting period at gun shows, equal to the waiting period imposed on people who purchase firearms at stores. The House would require checks at gun shows be completed in 24 hours. A White House spokesperson said the administration supported the Senate version and would be unwilling to compromise on that point. He said most checks are completed within hours and that the extra time was needed in cases where closer scrutiny was required. Last week, Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Rep. John Conyers of Michigan, their committees' ranking Democrats, sent a letter to the judiciary committee chairmen, Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah and Rep. Henry Hyde of Illinois, urging action. "We are baffled that the Senate-passed gun safety measures, measures that represent an important first step in stopping this gun violence epidemic, continue to lay dormant in a juvenile justice conference that has not met since early August," they wrote.

By Senator Wayne Stump Editor's Note: Former State Senator Wayne Stump of Arizona and a former member of the NRA board of directors. His article covers jury nullification of unjust laws. Alcohol prohibition failed and the politicians turned away from it because it was very difficult to get a conviction. NRA failure to publish this article was another in a long series of giving in to tyranny. It is another good reason to vote for the Second Amendment Action slate on Neal Knox's web sight www.nealknox.com The biographies of our candidates can be seen on: http://www.paulrevere.org/nrabod/index.htm Now the article. Prior to the American revolution an English general was overheard to say, "You can not pull the wool over the eyes of those Americans; they are all a bunch of lawyers." Book stores in London at that time sold more law books in the American colonies than any book except the Holy Bible. The American revolution and the American Republic were rooted in a climate of knowledge. Americans knew their law! They also knew their Bible, upon which the principles of the English common law are based. Thomas Jefferson said, in effect, that a people who wished to remain ignorant and to be free, desired something that never had been and never would be. The N.R.A. has launched a grass-roots campaign to help its members, their families, and friends become informed activists in the fight to keep and regain our God-given rights, including those protected by the second amendment. In the fight to regain our rights, most of our effort is, and has to be, in the political arena, however, in addition to political action, there is another area in which NRA members, their families, and friends can be effective in stopping the government dead in its tracks, whenever it attempts to infringe upon our rights, IF THEY HAVE KNOWLEDGE! Any Citizen when serving on a jury, if he KNOWS his rights and duties as a juror, can in the case he is on, stop the government cold if he believes the statute to be unconstitutional or unfair simply by voting not guilty. When juries find a defendant not guilty in cases where the defendant did in fact violate the statute, it nullifies the statute in that particular case. Repeated and continuous JURY NULLIFICATION of a law makes it impossible for the government to enforce it and will lead to repeal of that law. The power of the jury to nullify was first exercised in a seventeenth century English court and was discussed in an article by Godfrey Lehman in the November 1988 issue of The Justice Times. "The ordeal suffered by twelve anonym s in London over 300 years ago is recorded obscurely in history under the colorless, non-descriptive title of "Bushell's Case." Its 20th century oblivion belies the respect it commanded in the 18th, and conceals its enduring multiple influences upon our Constitutional republic. Fully understood, it can be appreciated as one of the most influential single events in the entire history of our imperfect species* because of its impact upon the writers of our Declaration of Independence and Constitution. Most significantly it was spontaneous, unlike any other great charter of liberty. "It was accomplished without deliberate, conscious planning; without great public agitation, and did not require the signing of a formal document. It did not involve any highly-placed persons. It arose directly from the people. It is the story of the trial of William Penn, who had committed no more serious offense than preach Quakerism in spite of an official "law," known as the Conventicle Act, intended to proscribe all religions except the Church of England. The jurors suffered up to nine weeks of torture to stand by the principle that every person has a right to worship according to his own conscience. Because they did not waver, they finally won. "The Conventicle Act fell before these twelve inconsequential "bumble heads" - these twelve "simple-witted cockneys" without rank nor position in the government. There were no further prosecutions under that act. It was not necessary to importune vote-seeking legislators to pass repealing legislation. The entire government was humbled before them. They gained no material benefits for themselves, they blended back into their pre-trial anonymity. "By nullifying, the jury corrects governmental abuses and usurpations one at a time without violence, within the arena of the courtroom, preventing the
[CTRL] Man's Fallen Nature by Roy Masters
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- MAN' FALLEN NATURE April 1999 by Roy Masters The "great white father" of psychiatry, Sigmund Freud, came very close to basic truth, but before he had quite reached it, he veered off into the outer reaches of scientific confusion. If only he had been able to view the facts that his searching mind uncovered by the light of spiritual discernment, he might have discovered the truth about mans nature. He might have discovered, for instance, that the sex drive in man is somehow linked with and blossoms from a traumatic experience with a parentlong forgotten, of course, but nevertheless there at the core of his being, surrounded and hidden by the concentric growth rings of subsequent traumatic experiences that have blinded him to the original violation of his human identity. The first trauma sets the pattern, and becomes the nucleus for the problems that follow concentrically, one upon the other, until the original experience, the nucleus itself, is lost from observation of the conscious mind. Notice I have said "observation", not "memory". The "memory" is "synonymous" with the experience itself. Each emotional reaction is actually a traumatic experience for a human beingessential for animal growth, but not for human development. In fact, "animal" growth is inimical to human development, blunting our human perceptions at the point of unfoldment and supplementing them with the brutish reasoning of an "evolving body." In the beginning, then, the individual encounters an original traumatic experience that sets the wheel of his development in motion around an axis of emotional "turn-on" experiences. But this growth pattern carries him further from his true identity, or from the possibility of discovering that identity. The real identity of each of us exists as a potential not yet realized, buried somewhere within us, but prevented from expressing itself and unfolding in harmonious obedience to higher law, by the blocking power of emotion. Each emotional shock is another traumatic experience, another step away from the calm center of true Self. Now, it is an established biological fact that when living protoplasm (flesh) is exposed to stress, the reaction to that stress causes the body to absorb some of the nature (identity) of that stress (presence) permanently. The permanent impression left on an organism as a result of stress is called an "engram". In other words, some of the outside environment gets inside the organism that reacts to it, makes a mark on it, and gives additional development to that life form. Evolutionists would term this process adaptation and evolution. The creature is subject to the impress of its environment, and it takes shape and adjusts according to the severity and type of pressure that is brought to bear on it. Now, in what position does that place our "free moral agent" called "man"? Certainly, he is not very "free", and stripped of control over the process, he cannot be very "moral". Yet we know that mans consciousness is subject to two distinct "tugs", the tug of nature, and the counter tug of conscience. This tug-of-war for the carcass of man is the basis of his souls unrest. As the pressures of environment envelop him, he becomes increasingly obliged to obey that environment and dramatize its secret messages, codes, and implications. We are surrounded by an environment composed not only of nature itself, but of other people with precisely the same problems as our own, subject to the environment that preceded them and fouled up by their forebears even as we have been by our own. All of us dramatize the flesh the forces that overshadowed us, and thus our behavior becomes an "environment" with a "message" to others. Freud recognized that all our problems begin in childhood, and that parents are the primary problem producers. If we are victims of our environment, it is because our parents are wrong, and we shall surely inherit some of that wrong. We are somehow scarred at birth by what I would like to call an inherent error that lurks in the parent undetected. Then the child becomes the parent, and the process continues. Surely this is the meaning of "being born in sin". There is not one single person who does not have a crippling problem. The entire human race is made up of emotional cripples who are confused, irrational, or downright cruel. Rich or poor, and of whatever ethnic background, each child comes into the world preceded by tyrants. Lets call them "victim-sinners", as the word "sin" denotes a deviation, while "victim" denotes helplessness. The fleshly presence of this deviation in the form of a parent is the "ministering

Reprinted with his permission] Dear Editor- I am 8 years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Great Cthulhu. Papa says, "If you see it on Alt.Horror.Cthulhu, it's so," Please tell me the truth, is there a Great Cthulhu who will rise from the watery depth of the Pacific to clear the Earth of all living things? --Virgina Marsh Virgina, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the fever of enlightenment given to them by a so-called "enlightened" age. They do not believe in anything unless it carries the weight of scientific authority. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. Reality is that which can be cataloged and measured, to be spooned out in rational doses to the common people. All minds, Virgina, whether they be adult's or children's, are little. In this vast chaos we laughingly call the universe, man is a mere insect, a bug, whose intellect has as much chance of grasping the whole truth, as an ant has of understanding non-Euclidian geometry. Yes, Virgina, there is a Great Cthulhu. He exists as certainly as the cold unfeelingness of the cosmos exits, and you know that this meaninglessness abounds and gives to your life its highest absurdity. Alas! how comfortable would be the world if there were no Cthulhu! It would be as comforting as if a Santa Claus truly did care and reward children for doing good. There would be childlike faith then, a world of sweet believable poetry and romance to make existence idyllic and appealing. The external light with which childhood fills the world would never end. Not believe in the Great Cthulhu! You might as well not believe in Hastur or the Necronomicon. You might get your papa's science books and Skeptical Inquirers to see if Cthulhu is mentioned in any historical contexts or if R'lyeh truly does rest under the Pacific Ocean, but even if you did not find either mentioned in your 'holy' books, what would that prove? Nobody sees or knows of Cthulhu, but that is no sign that there is no Great Cthulhu. The most real things in the world are those that we can not know through the senses. Can the headache of your friend be felt by you? No, but his pain affects your life regardless. Do you feel the angst of living a life you never wanted through any of your five senses? No, yet the despair remains. Yet if such realities are known but are never seen, then why should other's ignorance of the unseen lead us to share in their blindness. By what right have they earned your obedience? Nobody can conceive of the inconceivable, including your leaders of thought. You tear apart the rattle of a baby to see what lies inside to make such noise, but the tiny balls there can not explain or illustrate the fear of a hostile world, that makes that baby clutch and shake that rattle so. Only reaching for insanity can push aside the curtain of our hopes and view with stark madness the emptiness that lies beyond. Is that reality? Is that the truth? To give an answer is to replace the curtain with but one more. And it is this, that makes the Great Cthulhu as true and as real as any veil we place on the chaos beyond. If one must create a meaning, why not the Great Cthulhu. At least the choice is free. Thank Azathoth! The Great Cthulhu lives and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virgina, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to await the time when the stars are right again. For with those which eternal lie, with strange eons even death may die.

[CTRL] Solar Storm Research Update
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Very interesting study..Alfred This could explain rising temperatures in recent years, said Dr Soon." SPACEDAILY http://www.spacedaily.com/spacecast/news/weather-00c.html According to Posmentier, their results do not rule out the possible climate influence of man-made fossil fuels, which have caused the atmosphere's CO2 levels to rise. "During some parts of the last century, as the amount of CO2 increased, the temperature increased," he explained. "I don't dispute that, and I'm not saying that CO2 can't have significant effects in the future. Holes In Sun's Corona Puts A Hole In Climate Science Brooklyn - March 2, 2000 - An unusual interdisciplinary study by astronomers and climatologists has found a striking correlation between holes in the outermost layer of the sun--or the corona--and the globally averaged temperature of the Earth, suggesting that the Earth's atmospheric temperature may be strongly linked to solar magnetism changes over months or years. In a paper that appears in the February 28 issue of the journal New Astronomy, climatologist Eric Posmentier of Long Island University's Brooklyn Campus, solar physicists Willie Soon and Sallie Baliunas of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and physicist Pius Okeke of the University of Nigeria chart temperature anomalies seen in the Earth's lower troposphere (i.e., the region of atmosphere in which we live) using Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) radiometers aboard weather satellites. The scientists compared the Earth's temperature with the size of coronal holes reported on the Sun during a two-decade period, starting in January 1979 and ending April 1998. Results show a clear drop in terrestrial atmospheric temperature after the Sun's magnetic field activity is most intense. At this point, there is a dropping off of magnetic activity and an enlargement of the coronal holes. "This is the first time anyone has combined these modern, reliable data sets to link solar activity and climate, and to cite several alternative mechanisms that might explain this link," Posmentier explained. Coronal holes are, literally, gaps in the Sun's outer atmosphere through which the stream of hot, supersonic particles known as the solar wind pours out into space to engulf the entire planetary system. At Earth, this hot bath of charged particles produces the aurorae (i.e., the aurora borealis), interferes with electrical and radio transmissions, and may threaten passengers aboard high-flying airliners or astronauts aboard unshielded spacecraft. The solar wind has also been long suspected as a possible indirect contributor to terrestrial climate change. Posmentier and colleagues think that the connection between the solar wind and climate may be more direct, suggesting that the charged particles hitting the Earth's atmosphere may affect the properties of terrestrial water clouds, particularly the percentage of those clouds covering the Earth. In turn, significant changes in the cloud cover influence the temperature of the lower troposphere, with temperatures falling with increased cloud cover. Another possibility is that the charged particles change ozone chemistry in the upper atmosphere, in turn affecting the dynamics of the climate. The scientists note, however, that the charged particles hitting the Earth could come from either the Sun, or from galactic cosmic rays that are modulated by the solar wind. Or, from a combination of both sources. Regardless, the percentage of the Sun's surface covered by coronal holes seems to be a fairly accurate indicator of temperature in the Earth's troposphere over months or years. The correlation comes with some caveats. As Posmentier and colleagues note, other major climate factors are also at work concurrently, thus complicating attempts to correlate Sun-Earth phenomena. Most notable in the past two decades have been the warming effects of the 1997-98 El Nino and the general cooling that followed the eruption of Mount Pinatubo in 1991. According to Posmentier, their results do not rule out the possible climate influence of man-made fossil fuels, which have caused the atmosphere's CO2 levels to rise. "During some parts of the last century, as the amount of CO2 increased, the temperature increased," he explained. "I don't dispute that, and I'm not saying that CO2 can't have significant effects in the future. "What I am saying is the data do not unambiguously support the contention that CO2 increases are the dominant cause of climate variability," he added. "There are other reasons for climate variations that are significant. In fact, we've found that the strongest correlation is the one between the area of the Sun's surface covered with holes and the globally averaged temperature of the Earth."

[CTRL] GUN CONTROL: what's the reason?
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! A HREF="http://freeamerica.com/National/usa1.html"Gun Control/A http://freeamerica.com/National/usa1.html GUN CONTROL: what's the reason? By Harry V. Martin Copyright FreeAmerica and Harry V. Martin, 1995 "The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." Thomas Jefferson Gun control is one of the hottest topics of the nineties. There has been a series of legislation on both the State and Federal level attempting to control the ownership and sale of guns. There are currently 31 bills in the State Legislature right now that address the gun control issue. The debate over gun control centers on the issue of safety, on one side, and freedom on the other. Public opinion polls show the majority of Americans now favor some form of gun control. But at the same time the Second Amendment of the Constitution guarantees the people the right to bear arms. The increased possession of guns by gangs and criminals has caused great alarm, some mass killings such as the Stockton School Yard shootings and the Yseda McDonald's shootings have increased that alarm. But in the quest for gun control also comes the erosion of rights. This erosion is found in a confidential memorandum concerning a White House brainstorming session over how to control guns over the next five years and also projections into the next 15 years. The plan, outlined on December 29, 1993, states: "What was only a dream ten years ago can be a reality as early as this year. After the meeting, the following ideas were the result of brainstorming session to guide the focus of gun control initiatives over the next five years. These may not be politically feasible ideas for 1994, but we are confident that with continued pressure we can achieve most if not all of these goals within the next five years." That White House session was held on Friday, December 17, 1993. The plan outlines how the media is to receive one press release a day to keep the gun control issue on a high profile with the public. "Many local news organizations have been very active in keeping the gun control issue resolutely in view," the report states. The plan is as follows: 1. National licensing of all handgun purchases. This is the top priority. 2. Licenses fors rifle and shotguns. 3. State licenses for ownership of firearms. The license has to be signed by three public officials. 4. Reduction of the number of guns to require an Arsenal license. Ownership of five guns and 250 rounds of ammunition would be considered a arsenal. An arsenal license fee would be at least $300 annually up to $1000. An arsenal license would not be permitted in counties with populations of more than 200,000. 5. Require a Federally approved storage safe for all guns. 6. Inspection license. Mandatory inspection of all safes with an annual fee. 7. Ban the manufacturing of weapons in counties with a populations of more than 200,000. 8. Banning all military style firearms. 9. Banning any machine gun parts or parts which can be used in a machine gun. 10. Banning the carrying of a firearm anywhere but home or target range or in transit from one to the other. 11. Banning replacement parts except barrel and trigger group. 12. Elimination of the Curio Relic list. 13. Control of ammunition belonging to certain surplus firearms. 14. Eventual ban of handgun possession. A total ban within five years. 15. Banning of any ammo that fits military guns dating back to as far as 1945. 16. Banning of any quantity of smokeless powder or black powder. 17. Ban on the possession of explosive powders. 18. Banning of high powered ammo or wounding ammo. 19. A national license required for possession of ammunition. 20. Banning or strict licensing of all re-loading components. 21. National registration of ammunition or ammo buyers. 22. Requirement of special storage safe for ammunition and licensing. 23. Restricting gun ranges to counties with populations of less than 200,000. 24. Special licensing of ranges, which also requires each existing or new shooting range required to get written permission of all property owners within a radius of seven miles. 25. Special Range tax to visitors, requiring the collection of a minimum of $85 per visit per person. 26. Waiting period for rentals on pistol ranges. 27. Banning gun shows. 28. Banning of historical military reenactments. 29. Making unlawful the assembly of more than four armed individuals who are not peace officers or military. 30. Begin to curb hunting on all public lands. 31. Making gun owners records and photos a matter of public record. 32. Random Police checks for weapons including vehicle stops and checks at all levels and in all types of neighborhoods. The fifteen year plan would call for the following: 1. Banning of all

BDj March 7, 2000 French, Serbs, Albanians Hurt in Kosovo Clash --- --- -- REUTERS INDEX | INTERNATIONAL | BUSINESS | TECHNOLOGY --- --- -- Filed at 11:23 a.m. ET By Reuters KOSOVSKA MITROVICA, Yugoslavia (Reuters) - Fourteen French KFOR soldiers, 20 Serbs and five Albanians were injured Tuesday when fighting broke out in the predominantly Serb part of the divided Kosovo town of Mitrovica. It was one of the most serious outbreaks of violence in the city, which saw two major clashes last month, where peacekeepers struggle daily to prevent fighting between Albanians and Serbs. ``Fourteen KFOR soldiers were slightly injured. All of them French. Five Albanians, four men and one female, and several Serbs were also hurt,'' Lieutenant Francis Megerlin, French KFOR spokesman, told Reuters in the town. ``Only three of the soldiers are still under medical treatment, the others left the hospital,'' he said. A doctor at the Serb-run hospital in northern Mitrovica said 20 Serbs had been brought in. ``Twenty injured Serbs have been received in the hospital for treatment and two of them are seriously wounded,'' said Marko Jaksic, head of the surgical ward of the Mitrovica hospital. It was not immediately clear what had sparked the incident. ``I don't know how it started and what happened but we know it started at approximately 12:45 p.m. after pushing between two people and later on a lot of people gathered around,'' Megerlin said. ALBANIANS SHOOT, THROW GRENADES Philippe Pacaud, a spokesman for the United Nations Mission in Kosovo, said he had heard that there had been a quarrel between Albanian and Serb youths. ``One Albanian fired a hunting rifle at a young man and wounded him and immediately after that Albanians from a courtyard threw two hand grenades,'' Pacaud said. A Reuters reporter saw at least six French soldiers and a captain being evacuated with grenade injuries after they tried to intervene. Some of the soldiers were taken to a French military hospital. The shooting later died down. French KFOR spokesman Colonel Patrick Chanliau said French soldiers were still surrounding the house where it had started. He said two cars were burning and a child was among the injured. Troops and U.N. police reinforced the bridges dividing the town where Serbs and Albanians had gathered on opposite sides of the river. The atmosphere remained extremely tense but quietened down after the shooting ended. The northern Mitrovica district where the firing broke out was heavily fortified by KFOR last week when it managed to return some Albanians to their homes there after a two-day standoff with angry Serbs. KFOR and the United Nations, anxious to demonstrate backing for a multi-ethnic Kosovo, made a huge show of force to get the Albanians home through a gauntlet of Serbs, who said having Albanians in their part of town was a threat to their safety. The Albanians had fled last month to the Albanian southern part of the town, which is divided by the River Ibar, after ethnic violence drove them from their homes. Eight Albanians were killed and 20 people were wounded, most of them Serbs, in the most serious clashes on February 3. Ten days later an Albanian died and two French peacekeepers and several Serbs and Albanians were wounded in more violence. Ask questions, give answers and tell other readers what you know.

We already have enabling legislation, the 1996 Recall and Initiative Act whereby even the Premier can be recalled. Estimates of Internet penetration vary from 25 to 55%. The public is accustomed to computer booths in public places through freenets and Human Resources Job Finding kiosks. Mr. Perot could use his computer company to invest in a province-wide system of coin-operated public access computers so that all voting citizens would have access to the CITIZENS' PARLIAMENT. Vancouver and other BC cities already have voting machines which are just digital scanners. These too could be expanded and left up year round. As former Premier Vander Zalm said on "The End" last week, THIS IS NOT A DEMOCRACY. (At most it is a vestigial democracy or as Diane Francis once said, they run DICTATORSHIP IN SHIFTS). FWP. On Thu, 9 Mar 2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: During the 1992 Presidential campaign Ross Perot observed that "a general lack of accountability among elected officials and those in the bureaucracy was the one specific reason that the people in America suffered". Mr. Perot then suggested that the best and perhaps only way to make government officials accountable was to include the citizens in the decision making process. He went on to note that this can easily be done with computers and called the proposed mechanism THE ELECTRONIC TOWNHALL. With this computer program every citizen can indicate whether or not they agree or disagree with every law, policy and program on the books or that was being advanced. It can work for every level of government and in every jurisdiction. As the data is collected, a reasonable person would expect that the government officials would modify the laws, policies, and programs and make them congruent with the will of the people they are supposed to be representing. According to Mr. Perot, this, the harnessed experience and the combined intelligence of hundreds of thousands or even millions of citizens focused like a laser light on the real issues, will, as surely as night follows the day, perfect every law in our country and eventually it will right every wrong. Mr. Perot publicly announced his intention to give the people in America the ELECTRONIC TOWNHALL if he was elected President. But this modern concept for truly representative self government was so far removed from the business-as-usual-two-party-system that the talking heads and game show hosts yelled out that Mr. Perot was trying to destroy our Constitution, our government and our way of life. A reading of The Constitution shows that the founders specified the representation of one congressman for every thirty five thousand persons. Today we have one congressman for every 650,000 persons. None the less, and certainly not to be swayed by the facts, the media was so intensely negative towards the ELECTRONIC TOWNHALL that Mr. Perot was forced to stop talking about it. We now enter our third national election cycle since the introduction of the concept. No other person of national reputation or of significant influence has since picked up the idea, but the talking heads for both parties regularly stage "townhall meetings" where they talk of "reform" and "returning power to the people". Thus they try to ingratiate themselves with those who share a favorable sub-consciousness towards the idea without actually adding to its manifestation. The allegedly politically astute continue to offer the people of America only one solution: "candidates with a sense of morality and respect for the Constitution who really understand true brotherhood, justice and democracy and who will do the right thing for us each and every time". Many of these same people denounce the ELECTONIC TOWNHALL as unworkable. They claim we have a republican form of government, and that allowing the average citizen to pass judgment on public law is tantamount to anarchy. While we cannot make light of sincere individuals we must acknowledge the fact that regardless of who has been elected to public office the problems in our government get more complicated and our people continue to suffer. Could we possibly admit that our national situation, now being made global, is far too complicated for the President and the 535 elected members of the

[CTRL] Getting Ike to run, helping him win
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- from; http://www.cmonitor.com/stories/top100/adamsside0110copy.shtml Click Here: A HREF="http://www.cmonitor.com/stories/top100/adamsside0110copy.shtml"Getting Ike to run, helping him win/A - Getting Ike to run, helping him win Sunday, January 10, 1999 By MICHAEL J. BIRKNER For the Monitor In every life some years stand out. There is no question which year Sherman Adams remembered best - 1952. In his fourth and final year as governor of New Hampshire, Adams spent little time or energy on affairs of the Granite State. He was concerned with promoting the presidential candidacy of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower. For Adams, the Eisenhower candidacy proved to be the ticket to an exciting adventure in politics and, ultimately, an absorbing and influential 51/2 years in the White House. What made 1952 so special was that, from start to finish, Adams was at the center of the action. The origins of the Eisenhower candidacy lay not with Ike's ambition but with the hopes and fears of a cadre of professional politicians determined to do two things: elect a Republican president in 1952 and elect a president who would affirm the role of the United States as the main bulwark of freedom and opposition to the communist threat around the globe. Adams was not the first, or the most important, Eisenhower backer, even in his home state. Evidence suggests he was looking primarily for "the fastest horse out of the stable," as one account had it. Eisenhower was not preordained to be that horse. But in late 1951, as Adams thought about the coming election season, as he talked with political intimates like state Republican Chairman Richard Cooper, increasingly Eisenhower became linked with Republican success. By contrast, the favorite for the GOP nomination in 1952, Ohio Sen. Robert Taft, was a risky proposition. Taft was dour. His stringently conservative economic views and neo-isolationism had little appeal to Democratic or independent voters, whom the GOP needed to attract to have any hope of winning the presidency. Adams's role in the campaign of '52 was a play in three acts. First, he had to organize an Eisenhower campaign, in the absence of the candidate, in his home state. The New Hampshire primary would be crucial to Eisenhower's chances of wresting the nomination from Taft. But not until January 1952 did Adams have the certain knowledge that Eisenhower was a Republican - or that Ike would allow his name to be placed on the New Hampshire primary ballot. Eisenhower was living in Paris that winter, overseeing NATO forces in Europe. Adams became a workhorse in the Eisenhower cause, making speeches, raising money, building a grassroots organization and conceiving a media blitz on behalf of the absentee candidate. His efforts were widely credited for the smashing Eisenhower victory in the March primary. Eisenhower easily outdistanced Taft in the popular vote despite a Taft visit to the Granite State. In the second act of 1952, Adams was a roving ambassador for Eisenhower, speaking out on behalf of the general throughout New Hampshire and beyond. This act culminated at the Republican national convention in Chicago in July. Adams was designated floor leader for the Eisenhower forces and helped orchestrate tactics during the tense debate about contested delegates. It was also Adams who worked with Minnesota delegation chairman Warren Burger to pull Harold Stassen delegates into the Eisenhower camp at the end of the first ballot. This secured the nomination. In the third act of Adams's 1952, he was at the candidate's right hand on the campaign trail. Traveling with Ike in cars, trains and airplanes, Adams helped shield Eisenhower from the crush of reporters and citizens who sought to touch or talk with him. Adams helped plot strategy and dealt with unexpected crises, such as the Nixon Fund. Eisenhower despised Sen. Joseph McCarthy, but when he visited Wisconsin, McCarthy's home state, he could not repudiate him without damaging Republican election prospects. Adams helped Eisenhower decide what he should or should not say. Not all of Adams's judgments in 1952 were perfect. He probably harped too much and too crudely on inconsistencies in Taft's foreign policy record - so much so that Taftites found it difficult ever to trust Adams and impossible to like him. He advised Eisenhower to say nothing to defend Sen. George Marshall against McCarthy's slanderous comments about Marshall's loyalty. This was controversial then, and remains so. But Adams proved himself able to make decisions quickly and usually wisely, and Eisenhower came to view him as a man to depend on. So satisfied was Eisenhower with Adams's work on the campaign trail that when Ike won a landslide election victory in November, he wanted Sherman Adams to remain by his side. - Aloha, He'Ping, Om, Shalom, Salaam.

NewsHawk® Inc. ±± ±± http://www.macaddict.com/news/news/03_07_2000/gallup.html Gallup Website Hacked Tuesday mar.07 - 12:45pm An unknown cracker vandalized the website of the Gallup Organization last Sunday, two days before today's "Super Tuesday" presidential primaries. Gallup is one of the world's oldest polling companies. The hack points out potential dangers for Gallup's poll results, which are used widely by the media. Gallup insists that the crackers could not have affected any current poll results; the website won't have results available until September 1, the company claims, so it is impossible at this time for would-be vandals to affect any current or past polls. The cracker(s) simply added some text and changed a headline to read "Demonstration of Internet insecurity by AntiOnline." AntiOnline is a widely respected website dedicated to computer security. At this time, Gallup does not suspect AntiOnline of being involved with the defacement. John "JP" Vranesevich, who runs AntiOnline, told Nando Times that this isn't the first time they've been implicated in an attack they obviously had no part in. While the crack is troubling in and of itself, Vranesevich feels that the greatest threat to Gallup is the destruction of credibility, rather than of data -- for instance, the false reporting of an underdog political candidate claiming a front runner position in the primaries. "To this point, we really haven't seen hackers do that," he said to Nando Times. "To be able to put false information out, it could have serious consequences, all sorts of problems. To be able to put out a fake story about Microsoft merging with Apple, for example; just rumors about those kinds of stories can send stocks skyrocketing." Gallup, for it's part, seems to be taking the attack in stride. "We have until September 1 to guarantee that we have addressed all issues of security," said Gallup CIO Phil Ruhlmon. - - - - - - - - Subject: Gore Reels Off Wins, Bush Claims Victory Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2000 19:32:52 -0600 From: "Marvalene Pankey" MORE EVIDENCE OF VOTE FRAUD.

Bob Taft's strategy had been to leap into the lead at the post, and stay well ahead. Ike Eisenhower had started slowly, but had gained steadily after he settled down to run in earnest. now, for the first time, the general was just about neck neck with the Senator in the only statistic that really counts: the number of committed delegates. Chipping Corralling. The closeness of the race was something of a triumph for both sides. Despite the great, popular groundswell that rolled up for Ike in New Hampshire, New Jersey and Minnesota, Taft had rolled up most of the delegates in Wisconsin, Illinois and Nebraska. But the Eisenhower forces had inched out important gains that upset the Taft organization's neat plan for early victory. That bloc of 500 delegates from three Taft strongholds-the Midwest, the South, and the Mountain States-plus more than 100 scattered reinf orcements from other parts of the country. The Eisenhower forces chipped away some of Taft's Midwest bloc, e.g., Iowa, 15 for Ike, nine for Taft, corralled some delegates in the Mountain States, and were applying the Eisenhower brand of solvent to Taft's Solid South. Candidate Eisenhower's biggest single gain in delegates came last week when New york's district delegates were picked. The gain was expected, since Ikeman Tom Dewey controls the New York G.O.P. organization. But the figures were still impressive: 73 for Ike, one for Taft, 16 in doubt. In nine clear-cut contests between pledged delegate candidates, Ike won eight, Taft one. For the next month, the race will continue to be close. Ohioan Taft will make some important gains when his home state names its 56 delegates May 6. But Ike will be picking up delegates along the way, too. Neither candidate is likely to jump into a commanding lead until four big, key delegations begin to get into line. The four: Pennsylvania (70), Michigan (46), Texas (38), and California (70). Confusing U Varied. In Pennsylvania last week, General Eisenhower won another popular victory. He ran away with Pennsylvania's presidential preference primary, polling 847,420 votes, the most any candidate ever got in a Pennsylvania primary. Bluff Senator Jim Duff was the state's only big Republican in public support of Eisenhower, and the machine of former senator Joseph R. Grundy was solid against him. But Ike ran 31,000 votes ahead of Senator Ed Martin, who won renomination with the zealous support of all the regular G.O.P. organization. In eight head-on tests, the voters elected six Ike-pledged delegates, only two for Taft. Despite the Eisenhower victory, however, only seven of Pennsylvania's delegates could be firmly counted for Ike. Two were for taft (who got a record 172,829 write-in votes in the preference poll), and the rest had to be listed as uncommitted. Reason: the presidential preference vote is just "eyewash" to the Pennsylvania politicos. The key man now is Governor John S. Fine, who will control 32 of the delegates. He wasn't saying where his votes will go, but he did not seem overly impressed by the primary result. Said he: "Election returns speak what partisans desire to read into them. Many of the answers are as confusing as they are varied." Confidence Doubt. In Michigan, only 13 of the 46 delegates are solidly committed (seven for Eisenhower, six for Taft). But in Texas, where delegates will be chosen at a state convention May 27, and in California, where the delegation is still in earl Warren's pocket, Eisenhower supporters struck one shrewd blow last week. H.J. (Jack) Porter, head of the Eisenhower-for- President Club of texas, said he wrote Ike asking him whether he favors "state or federal ownership of the 'tidelands.'" Ike's reply (which pleased oil-rich Texas and California alike): "Once again, I agree with the principle that federal ownership in this case, as in others, is one that is calculated to bring about steady progress toward centralized ownership and control, a trend which I have bitterly opposed." With the race in balance and the first ballot at the national convention only ten weeks away, both sides were outwardly confident. The Taft forces held firm to their prediction of 650 first-ballot votes, 47 more than enough for nomination. Said henry Cabot Lodge, Ike's campaign manager: "We're in striking distance of the first ballot." But in spite of these calm expressions of confidence, the wise politicians on both sides knew that the big breaks ahead could still throw the race either way.

In doing so, they have revealed the scope of their power, and exposed the continuing betrayal of American interests by FDA officials. Last night, FDA faxed a FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT response to Cohen, and the information contained within that document conclusively demonstrates that MONSANTO defrauded the FDA in 1994 during the approval process for their genetically engineered bovine growth hormone. Robert Lake removed Cohen from the CODEX meeting. Mr. Lake has ignored the multi-million dollar lobbying efforts of other members of the CODEX team. MONSANTO does not want Americans to enjoy the right to know whether the foods they eat are genetically engineered or not. MONSANTO has Lake's ear, and Lake removed Cohen, despite Cohen's protest.

That's in stark contrast to the developing world where millions of people confront profound food insecurity every day. Part of the solution to righting this imbalance might involve something that is increasingly controversial in the developed world: genetically engineered food. http://www.biotechknowledge.com/showlib_us.php3?2859 2) Farm Progress Survey Shows Widespread Acceptance Of Biotech Grain By Corn Belt Elevators More than 80 percent of grain elevators throughout the Corn Belt have said they are planning to accept biotech corn grain containing Bt and LibertyLink traits in the fall of 2000, according to a survey by the Farm Progress Companies. More than 88 percent of these elevators will accept biotech soybeans produced with the Roundup Ready trait. http://www.biotechknowledge.com/showlib_us.php3?2877 3) Scientists Embrace Food Biotechnology, But Some Food Companies Run for Cover Methods of modern biotechnology now provide farmers and food producers with advanced tools to produce more healthful and better tasting food, as well as produce which resist attacks by insects and survives inclement weather conditions. Genetically modified food is really nothing new: farmers have long performed cross breeding of plants to provide improved products. But today's sophisticated science allows food producers to make alterations selectively and with precision. http://www.biotechknowledge.com/showlib_us.php3?2924 4) UK: Blair's GM Food Comment Not A U-Turn Says Minister According to a Reuters story , the British government has maintained its position on genetically modified (GM) food despite an article by Prime Minister Tony Blair seen as signaling a shift in policy. http://www.biotechknowledge.com/showlib_us.php3?2952 5) Cloudy Horizons In A Brave New World These are tough times for agricultural and food biotechnology, but its regulators are active and thriving. This is no coincidence. http://www.biotechknowledge.com/showlib_us.php3?2955 AT MONSANTO.COM 1) Monsanto Reaffirms Safety Of Fiber From Cotton Monsanto has completed more than 400 person-years of safety research for its products, including biotech cotton. Additionally, regulatory agencies around the world have agreed on the safety of biotech cotton plants. All plants contain genes and DNA. Since each cotton fiber was once a living cell, it's not surprising that small pieces of the DNA from those genes are included in the pure cotton products on the market today. http://www.monsanto.com/monsanto/mediacenter/background/00mar02_cot.html 2) Outcrossing Of Herbicide-Tolerant Canola Can Be Controlled: Growers Have Several Options Pollen flow - or the natural dispersion of pollen - is natural and expected in canola fields. It is important for growers to understand how pollen flow occurs, what can happen and how to effectively manage it to maintain productive yields and a healthy overall environment. In the February edition of Canola Digest, a pioneer in the creation of modern canola and Research, Scientist Emeritus Dr. R. Keith Downey, addresses here pollen flow in canola and how growers can effectively manage a number of considerations for canola growers, including herbicide tolerance. http://www.monsanto.com/monsanto/mediacenter/background/00feb25_mcga.html - E-mails are never sent unsolicited and your e-mail address is strictly confidential, it will not be released to third parties.

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- New Age Meets The Third Reich - David Icke the Politics Of Madness By Will Offley [EMAIL PROTECTED] ANTIFA Info-Bulletin Research Supplement 3-7-00 Will Offley is the former security coordinator of Everywoman's Health Centre in British Columbia, a member of New Socialist Group, researcher on Christian right and antichoice movements in Canada. This article will appear in Canadian Jewish Outlook and appears here with the author's permission. On Sunday, March 19th, British conspiracy theorist David Icke will be speaking all day at the Vogue Theatre, 918 Granville Street in Vancouver. Icke's politics are a very weird blend of New Age guru, anti-Semitism and neofascism. He is also antichoice. Icke's background, politics and connections show there is an urgent need for the pro-choice and women's mevements to join forces with the Jewish community, gays and lesbians, people of colour, the left and all other communities under threat by the far right. The backgrounder below should give a fair picture of what Icke stands for, and who supports him. * * * On the face of it, few people would credit a retired soccer player who rants about a world takeover by blood-drinking lizards from outer space as being much of a threat to democracy. And as a general rule, they would probably be right. David Icke, however, is an exception to that rule. Icke, 48, is a native of Leicester, England. For five years he played professionally for the Coventry City and Hereford United soccer teams until forced to retire by arthritis. He subsequently went on to become a sports announcer for BBC-TV. For three years from 1988 to 1991 he was national spokesperson for the British Green Party, until he began a political evolution that was to begin with his expulsion from the Greens and wind up with his current involvement with anti-Semitism, neofascism, and lizards from Mars. At first this evolution seemed relatively harmless. Icke began to flirt seriously with New Age theories, and then began to act on them. He dressed in turquoise, and began to call himself the "son of godhead". But by the time his book "The Robot's Rebellion" was printed in 1994, his trajectory had begun to take quite a different course. In 1996, the British magazine "Left Green Perspectives" wrote that this book "indicated a convergence of New Age thinking with Nazi philosophy. Casting aside his pat concerns about the environment, Icke enthusiastically embraced the classic Nazi conspiracy theory, alleging that the world is controlled by a secret cadre of "The Elite." He openly endorsed The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, the Tsarist anti-Semitic forgery that informed Hitler's notion of a global Jewish conspiracy." The following year Icke brought out another book, "And the truth shall set you free." This one, however, was self-published, as its content was so objectionable that his publisher refused to have it printed. And small wonder. The book repeated Icke's previous claims that the Protocols were true, and went on to state: "I strongly believe that a small Jewish clique which has contempt for the mass of Jewish people worked with non-Jews to create the First World War, the Russian Revolution, and the Second World WarThey then dominated the Versailles Peace Conference and created the circumstances which made the Second World War inevitable. They financed Hitler to power in 1933 and made the funds available for his rearmament." In this book, Icke went even further. He began to flirt explicitly with Holocaust denial, saying "why do we play a part in suppressing alternative information to the official line of the Second World War? How is it right that while this fierce suppression goes on, free copies of the Spielberg film, Schindler's List, are given to schools to indoctrinate children with the unchallenged version of events. And why do we, who say we oppose tyranny and demand freedom of speech, allow people to go to prison and be vilified, and magazines to be closed down on the spot, for suggesting another version of history." He also denounced the Nuremberg Trials as "a farce" and "a calculated exercise in revenge and manipulation." Icke's politics today are a mishmash of most of the dominant themes of contemporary neofascism, mixed in with a smattering of topics culled from the U.S. militia movement. He has written diatribes on the Illuminati, the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission as examples of secret plots to take over the world. He opposes gun control as a plot by this Elite, which has deliberately orchestrated numerous mass shootings to whip up opposition to guns. He has repeatedly posted anti-abortion literature and articles on his web site. He rails against conspiracies to implant microchips in everyone's bodies, coded with the Satanic number "666". He even accuses the U.S. government of carrying out the Oklahoma City bombing and murdering 168 men, women and

Stop this ongoing crime against the laws of God Waco Holocaust Electronic Museum: DeathDirectory of Exhibits Catalogue of Evidence Search Museum TextRemains of a two year old Davidian child, Mt. Carmel Doe 51A, photographed on May 7, 1993, just 18 days after alleged date of death. The remains have never been identified. Of all the forms of murder, none is more monstrous than that committed by a state against its own citizens . . . The homicidal state shares one trait with the solitary killer--like all murderers, it trips on its own egoism and drops a trail of clues which, when properly collected, preserved, and analyzed are as damning as a signed confession left in the grave. --Forensic anthropologist Clyde Snow, speaking before the May, 1984 meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He used his skills to expose the atrocities committed by governments. (Quoted by Christopher Joyce and Eric Stover in Witnesses from the Grave, Pg. 217). From the evidence we have examined so far, we hypothesize that the story of the Waco Holocaust is a story of at least three crimes: Mass murder Destruction of evidence Fabrication of evidence and perjury The stories are simple in concept, but complex in details. Mass Murder: The nation's top military and paramilitary agencies are involved in one of the most horrendous mass murders in the nation's history. These are: the Pentagon's Special Operations Command and the select forces that serve under its auspices; the Department of the Treasury's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF); and the Department of Justice's Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Among their victims are many mothers and children. This is the stuff that could topple a government . . . How to hide Crime Number One? Destruction of Evidence: The times, causes, and circumstances of death must be disguised. The mothers and children's bodies are burned, mutilated, and dismembered. Almost every technique in the book is used to launder these bodies, applied as if by the hands of experts. How to hide Crime Number Two? Fabrication of Evidence and PerjuryA cover story is invented. It runs, in part, as follows: The mothers and children sought shelter from the C/S gas in the concrete room, and the structure collapsed on them and killed them. The bodies are laundered to disguise the real causes, times, and circumstances of death, and the concrete room is slated for demolition. Control of the crime scene and the bodies is given to incompetent and compliant local yokels. The locals can provide a plausible cover for the destruction of evidence already effected, and, through incompetence, effect even more destruction of evidence through their independent actions. FBI agents and other helpers are salted among the local yokels to ensure the results.But some things go wrong along the way. First, the demolition job fails: The concrete room does not collapse. Instead, only a two-foot hole is punched in the roof. Second, the FBI panders to the news services, permitting photography from the air and the ground. The widely publicized pictures contradict the cover story. The photos show the concrete room in pretty good shape, thank you, except for the two-foot hole. But it's too late to change the cover story. Third, FBI personnel forget the old adage, Loose lips sink ships. They talk too much, and reporters dutifully print their ramblings. Is it news when leading FBI agent Jeff Jamar speculates on the location of the bodies before they are found? Only when he is right. And he is. The damaged roof is permitted to contaminate the remains. False information is placed in the Autopsy Reports, along with observations about the remains which provide evidence of crimes One and Two. Some of the locals testify at the Davidians' trial. They variously tell the truth, or hedge, or commit perjury, but they do give away the show.

From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed]: Conspiracy Shopping Cart: http://a-albionic.com/shopping.html From: LDL [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: The Population Control Bomb Date: Wednesday, March 01, 2000 10:14 AM The Population Control Bomb ^^^ By Khalid Baig http://www.albalagh.net/population/Malthus.shtml When a hippopotamus gave birth recently, the "world famous" San Diego Zoo in California celebrated the arrival for weeks. At the zoo, it is always a joyous occasion at the birth of a panda, a kangaroo, an elephant, or what have you. You are assured that each arrival has enriched the world! Now contrast this with the birth of a child in any LDC (Less Deserving Country?). An unbelievable assortment of "experts" would immediately tell you that it is a moment of great sorrow. That the world is somehow impoverished by the birth of each child. It is a strange world in which the arrival of a hippo is a blessing but that of a human child is a burden. But it is even stranger that the argument given is economic. A hippo needs 100 pounds of food everyday, compared with a few pounds for human beings. Further it does not produce any of the food it consumes. No animal ever does. Only human beings produce their own food. Lions eat goats and so do human beings. But lions do not breed goats; human beings do. Jay-hawks eat chickens as do human beings. But jay-hawks do not breed chickens, human beings do. If there were an economic argument against overpopulation, you would think that it would apply to all animals except human beings. Yet an extremely powerful propaganda machinery has been busy for more than a century in spreading the nonsense that the world faces a human "overpopulation problem." While at the micro-level, the idea had been there in many ancient jahiliyyah societies, where people even killed their children so they won't have to feed them, its introduction at the macro-level is recent. It was Reverend Thomas Robert Malthus (1766-1834) who forcefully presented the idea that the human population would always exceed our ability to produce food by some natural law. He opined that population grows in a geometric progression (2, 4, 6, ) while production of food grows in arithmetic progression (2, 3, 4, ). Even if there is plenty of food for everyone at the beginning, in two generations there will be more people than the means to feed them. Hence the "population problem." Malthus based his theory on very limited observations in American colonies and even more limiting assumptions about the progress of agriculture technology. The result is a theory that is totally contradicted by facts. World population has not been growing as fast as his theory suggests; African population is smaller today than it was before the European-led slave trade played havoc with it. The increase in food production, on the other hand, has been much greater than Malthus allowed. World population has more than doubled since 1950, but food supplies have more than tripled. Further, experts believe that if technology continues to improve at today's rate, it will be possible to feed ten billion people on roughly the same amount of land currently devoted to agriculture. As a result of improving crop yields, the area that is used to grow crops---about three billion acres globally---has increased little in the last two decades. Other estimates suggest that the world can support 33 billion people. While as a work of science Malthus's theory was worthless, it was received enthusiastically for political reasons. The industrial revolution and capitalism that accompanied it, did not deliver what they had promised. It was expected that as it became easier and cheaper to produce goods, everyone would share in the resulting prosperity; the rising tide would lift all boats. It did not. Capitalism produced a small class of very rich people and a large mass at barely subsisting levels. This made many people to start questioning the system. Karl Marx's was one extreme and misguided reaction to the very real injustices. Other critics differed in their prescriptions but agreed that the issue was political and social justice. Malthus's The Essay on Population was avowedly a reply to William Godwin's Inquiry concerning Political Justice, a work asserting the principle of human equality. And its purpose was to justify existing inequality by shifting the responsibility for it from human institutions to the laws of the Creator. As Galbraith would say, his work provided a satisfactory formula for the rich to suffer the misfortunes of the poor. Malthus was a priest in the service of the East India Company and taught generations of its staffers who would then go out and plunder the colonies with the satisfaction that the plight of their victims was the result of "natural laws."

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- STATEMENT OF JAY HAKES ADMINISTRATOR, ENERGY INFORMATION ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY BEFORE THE ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES COMMITTEE U.S. SENATE JANUARY 28, 1999 Testimony to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee January 28, 1998 By Jay Hakes, Administrator Energy Information Administration U.S. Department of Energy "I wish to thank the Committee for the opportunity to testify today on the state of the petroleum industry, which is experiencing unusually low crude oil prices. Gasoline Prices Lowest Ever (Figure 1) Today, the cheapest liquid you can buy at a service station is gasoline. Figure 1 shows that in 1998, consumers enjoyed the lowest gasoline prices in inflation-adjusted terms since 1942, and possibly the lowest ever. Regular gasoline prices averaged only $1.03 in 1998, but this obscures the fall off at the end of the year. In November and December gasoline prices averaged less than $1.00 per gallon ($0.995 and $0.945 per gallon respectively), and the latest weekly Energy Information Administration (EIA) data shows them at $0.936. This is about $1.33 per gallon less than we paid in 1981 in inflation-adjusted terms, and $0.37 cheaper in nominal terms. That 30-cent-per gallon gasoline that some people may recall buying in the 1950âs and 60âs is equivalent to about $1.50 in todayâs dollars." Note: The entire testimony is available at: http://www.eia.doe.gov/neic/speeches/senate/senate.html On the date of Mr. Hakes testimony, Jan. 28, 1999 he said the price of gas was 93.6 cents. It continued on down to 90.4 cents which was the all time low as reported by DOE on Feb. 22, 1998. This was 8 days after the Senate acquitted Bill Clinton of the impeachment charges. Just 2 weeks later, gas prices started back up. Prices have continued to increase to the present time. The latest DOE Report states the average price for Unleaded Regular is $1.50 per gallon. (National average) So in the 13 months since Clinton was acquitted, gasoline prices have increased 60 cents per gallon, and they are going even higher.

They have been affected by the fever of enlightenment given to them by a so-called "enlightened" age. They do not believe in anything unless it carries the weight of scientific authority. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. Reality is that which can be cataloged and measured, to be spooned out in rational doses to the common people. All minds, Virgina, whether they be adult's or children's, are little. In this vast chaos we laughingly call the universe, man is a mere insect, a bug, whose intellect has as much chance of grasping the whole truth, as an ant has of understanding non-Euclidian geometry. Yes, Virgina, there is a Great Cthulhu. He exists as certainly as the cold unfeelingness of the cosmos exits, and you know that this meaninglessness abounds and gives to your life its highest absurdity. Alas! how comfortable would be the world if there were no Cthulhu! It would be as comforting as if a Santa Claus truly did care and reward children for doing good. There would be childlike faith then, a world of sweet believable poetry and romance to make existence idyllic and appealing. The external light with which childhood fills the world would never end. Not believe in the Great Cthulhu! You might as well not believe in Hastur or the Necronomicon. You might get your papa's science books and Skeptical Inquirers to see if Cthulhu is mentioned in any historical contexts or if R'lyeh truly does rest under the Pacific Ocean, but even if you did not find either mentioned in your 'holy' books, what would that prove? Nobody sees or knows of Cthulhu, but that is no sign that there is no Great Cthulhu. The most real things in the world are those that we can not know through the senses. Can the headache of your friend be felt by you? No, but his pain affects your life regardless. Do you feel the angst of living a life you never wanted through any of your five senses? No, yet the despair remains. Yet if such realities are known but are never seen, then why should other's ignorance of the unseen lead us to share in their blindness. By what right have they earned your obedience? Nobody can conceive of the inconceivable, including your leaders of thought. You tear apart the rattle of a baby to see what lies inside to make such noise, but the tiny balls there can not explain or illustrate the fear of a hostile world, that makes that baby clutch and shake that rattle so. Only reaching for insanity can push aside the curtain of our hopes and view with stark madness the emptiness that lies beyond. Is that reality? Is that the truth? To give an answer is to replace the curtain with but one more. And it is this, that makes the Great Cthulhu as true and as real as any veil we place on the chaos beyond. If one must create a meaning, why not the Great Cthulhu. At least the choice is free. Thank Azathoth! The Great Cthulhu lives and lives forever.

One need not be a conspiracy theorist to posit such things, one need only look at the
facts and make a reasonable assertion based upon those facts. The government has done
this type of thing before. They are in the business of creating a situation in order
to then quell it, so as to cement their already considerable power, or to gain power
in areas that have previously been offlimits.

ReichstagFire.Com
by Wendy McElroy
A few weeks after Hitler became Chancellor of Germany, the parliament building
in Berlin -- the Reichstag -- was set ablaze. Hitler used public hysteria over
the fire to suspend constitutional liberties and eliminate opponents. Most
historians blame the Nazis themselves for the fire that so conveniently
cemented their power.
I am not a conspiracy theorist, although conspiracies undoubtedly exist. I lack
the ability to distinguish an intricate plot from a mass of coincidence.
Nevertheless, a theory floating on Usenet groups makes up in charm for what it
lacks in credibility. The theory runs...the slew of so-called hacker attacks
that have caused the denial of service (DoS) to major sites was executed by the
Clinton Administration. The motive? To justify imposing controls on the
Internet, to facilitate taxing e-Commerce and to maintain the budget.
Consider the chain of coincidence. In his State of the Union Address (January
27), Clinton declares electronic law enforcement to be a high priority. Three
days later, the National Security Agency (NSA) publicly confesses that its
computer system was down for four days in late January. Since when has the NSA
talked to the national press about its failures and faults? Then, the FBI
speculates that a single teenager might have paralyzed what is arguably the
most sophisticated computer system in the world. Authorities conclude that
national interest cannot be guaranteed through intricate security measures. It
must be maintained through stringent enforcement. Apparently the fifteen-month
jail sentence and $36,000 fine imposed upon 'Zyklon,' who defaced the White
House's Web page, is not stringent enough.
And, lest the government seem self-serving at the expenses of civil liberties
and the public's interest in general, what happens next? The private sector is
attacked next. A major news source (CNN), the largest search engine (Yahoo), a
mega ISP (AOL), a marketplace (eBay), a university (Stanford), a bookseller
(Amazon), Wall St. (eTrade) and a vendor of innocent children's toys (eToy)...a
representative from virtually every segment of society has fallen victim to
DoS. The message is clear: no one from the NSA to America's toddlers is safe.
Again, enforcement is *the* answer. The authorities announced a suspect who
closely resembles a fallguy. He is 'mafiaboy' -- a fifteen year old Canadian
who, along with legions of other teenagers, took credit for the attacks on IRC
chat.

[CTRL] GORE BETRAYS ENVIRONMENTAL CAUSE
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- http://abcnews.go.com/onair/CloserLook/wnt_000306_GoreEnvironment_fea ture.html Questioning Gore's Integrity Vice President Criticized for Betraying Environmental Cause By Terry Moran LOS ANGELES, March 6 -- Al Gore says he's the environmental candidate. He wrote a best-selling book on it, and it's a central part of his presidential campaign. "I will not let you down," stated Gore when he spoke at the League of Conservation Voters in New York on Feb. 24. "I will fight with everything I've got to protect the environment here in New York, all through our country, and around the world." But all along the campaign trail, Gore is greeted by demonstrators who say he has betrayed the environmental cause when it comes to protecting native peoples. The story begins in a remote region of Colombia, where the U'wa people have threatened to commit mass suicide if U.S.-based Occidental Petroleum goes forward with plans to drill for oil on what the tribe claims are its traditional lands. The U'wa oppose the drilling because they fear it will violate the rain forest, which they consider sacred. Making It a Personal Issue Last month, a violent confrontation between villagers and police led to at least one death. What has all this got to do with Al Gore? Money. "There's probably no company in America today," says Charles Lewis of the Center for Public Integrity, "that is as close personally and financially to the vice president than occidental petroleum." After Gore's late father left the U.S. Senate, he was named to the board of Occidental Petroleum. Financial records show the vice president is the executor of his father's estate, which holds as much as $500,000 worth of Occidental stock. That means Gore could ultimately benefit from the company's operations in Colombia. Plus, Occidental is a major Democratic Party donor, giving nearly $500,000 in soft money since 1992. To environmental activists, the vice president's duty is clear. "If he wants to be an environmental champion," says Atossa Soltani of Amazon Watch, "he needs to make a statement on this issue. And he needs to take personal...responsibility for his family fortune." Conflicting Political and Legal Pressures It sounds simple: a multinational oil company, a threatened native people, a powerful politician. But there are other factors at work here that have put the vice president in a dilemma. First, as executor of his father's estate, Gore has legal responsibilities that could prevent him from simply dumping the Occidental stock. And the Clinton administration is supporting the Colombian government in its battle with guerillas and drug dealers, who control 40 percent of the country. Many foreign policy experts say developing the oil business as an alternative to drugs is crucial to Colombia's survival. "If they would stop oil exploration," says Lowell Fleischer of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, "which seems to be the goal of some of these indigenous leaders, I think that would just lead to more problems." Vice President Gore refused several requests to speak with ABCNEWS about the U'wa and his family's holdings with Occidental. But as the demonstrators dog him -- and Occidental begins drilling in Colombia -- Gore's public silence on the issue leaves him open to the charge that for all his speechmaking on the environment, he won't put his money where his mouth is.

[CTRL] REVERSING GLOBAL WARMING
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- from: GREEN PAWNS AND GLOBAL WARMING by Allan J Yeomans Copyright 1998 http://www.yeomansplow.com.au/chapters_index.htm I've seen the rainforest of the Amazon Valley described as the "lungs of the world". That's plain nonsense. A mature tree produces as much carbon dioxide overnight, as it produces oxygen during the day. And a mature jungle or rainforest behaves in a similar way. -- Allan Yeomans extract below from: http://www.yeomansplow.com.au/chapter2.htm THE CONCEPT OF REVERSING GLOBAL WARMING In the beginning carbon dioxide, being one atom of carbon combined with two atoms of oxygen (dioxide = two oxygen) belched out of volcanos in huge quantities where it became a major component of the earth's primal atmosphere. The whole process of life starts by taking some carbon from the air, where it had accumulated and languishes as primal carbon dioxide, mixing in some water, adding tiny traces of other elements for variety, and then warming it all with the sunlight energy. Complex reactions occur in this living process and complex organic compounds are formed. These complex compounds then become the building blocks for even more complex chemicals of life. In this process the oxygen in the original carbon dioxide, is released into the atmosphere for us to breathe. Also now trapped, as the power of chemical bonds within the molecules, is the original sunlight energy. When we burn a piece of wood, the complex organic material that is the wood, re-combines with the oxygen in the air to form the original carbon dioxide and releases the energy of the original stored sunlight. In our bodies, we can combine oxygen with organic matter at much lower temperatures and much lower rates, and this produces the energy we need to function and to maybe walk up a flight of stairs. In the process we also produce carbon dioxide, which we discharge as exhaled breath. There was once much too much carbon dioxide in the air for humans to exist. However over millions of years, primitive plants, microbes and bacteria absorbed the carbon dioxide from the air. They also absorbed the sunlight energy that shone on our primitive world. The complex carbon compounds with its solar energy became part of the rock and the very ground we live and work on. Slowly over an incredibly long span of time the carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere crept down until finally the earth's environment and the earth atmosphere evolved into the one we now know. This modified environment suited the evolution of the mammals and then the evolution of the primates and eventually mankind. All this stored carbon and sunlight energy has been buried safely in the ground these millions of years until the start of man's industrial revolution. There are two forms of this stored material that concern us. The first is oil, natural gas and coal and, to certain extent limestone. They are considered as 'fossil forms'. The second storage form is more current. It is the immense mass of carbon and sunlight energy residing in our world's soils and in our world's living biology. Prior to the advent of the industrial revolution, our requirement for energy was satisfied by the horse to supply us with transport and the water wheel to grind our flour. Wood and animal skins were our plastics. Burning wood supplied us with warmth in winter and heat to cook our food. The rains came to constantly power our water wheels. The constant regrowth of timber catered for our small population and low requirements for energy. Life, for most of us, was harsh and simple, and just surviving occupied most of our time. Unchecked population growth, industry and a rising standard of living, created an enormous increase in energy requirements. We then uncorked the genie of fossilised carbon with its vast store of ancient sunlight. We forgot however, that this to released the long buried carbon dioxide. The very carbon dioxide that had once made this planet, at least for man a very hostile place indeed. Burning this 'fossil fuel' is one of the two main sources of carbon dioxide causing our new runaway Greenhouse Effect. CARBON DIOXIDE FROM AGRICULTURAL CHEMICAL USE The second influx comes from the discharge into the atmosphere of carbon dioxide from the destruction of soil organic matter and soil biological activity. We are destroying our living soils. Amazingly the volume of this feed of carbon dioxide into our atmosphere is of comparable proportions to the total burning of all fossil fuels. It is simple arithmetic. It is also a well concealed truth. It is a topic where facts and truth have been systematically twisted and distorted and hidden. The reason for this is agricultural chemicals and mono cropping and inversion tillage (practices discussed later) cause soil organic matter to break

Most players even many "elites" are hoodwinked as are many of us hoi polloi into various controllable factions. Rather than having a zionist -led conspiracy, one uncovers more of a highjacking of certain apsects by another group which does includes jewish elements and then starts the manipulations that led to today. But these manipulations exposedmake no less the tragedy visited upon us hoipolloi, either by hoodwinked warriors or murdered marginilized humanity in a holocaust. Yes, there have been many other'holocausts' and they continue, but at least they are being discussed. And this same "powers-that-be" have created many organizations that have good and bad aspects for the hegelian affectations upon our culture and pysches. And I am more interested in that what we hoi polloi have in common than in those emotional tugs that the "powers-that-be" like to use to divide us.

Anyway, Irving is NOT a Holocaust denier, i.e. does not deny that there were deplorable wide scale massacres of Jews during WWII in Nazi territories) -- there were, and the Zionist leadership was cooperating with Hitler to help bring some of it about (see The Transfer Agreement by Jewish Author Edwin Black from Amazon.com, and "Zionism in the Age of Dictators" which is on the web in toto if you punch the title into a search engine, to name just a FEW sources -- but Irving wants some historical balance brought to the debate. For instance, he didn't say that Auschwitz was Disneyland, he said it was a kind of macabre Disneyland, i.e. built to be a tourist attraction. That's right, built. And if you don't know that informed observers on all sides admit that the buildings on display of Auschwitz, in all essentials, have been built since the end of World War II. The writings of Robert Faurrison, a French socialist who just couldn't stomach the falsehoods being told by the Holocaust lobby for political and financial gain, just prove this beyond any shadow of a doubt, but quoting from anti-revisionist scholars, historians, and participants in the discussion who are disgusted with damage that the Auschwitz display are doing to their cause as the word leaks out. And the Irving Trial has put it on front and center stage world wide. Anyone interested will be able to get ahold of the transcripts on the internet or elsewhere now, or at least evenutally. Finally, it's funny to see unconcious "fascists" like Dave or Bob or both blowing
