[CTRL] Binary GAS Torture
-- - Forwarded Message - DATE: Fri, 05 May 2000 00:45:56 From: "br wahl" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ...Binary GAS Torture Many of the complaints of government non-lethal torture attacks assume that the methods used are one or more forms of radiation, usually electrical in nature. While this may be true in some cases, the method actually in use is a very sophisticated form of binary chemical warfare. The targeted victim has been sensitized to various infernal gasses. The sensitizing agent may be applied by means of gas "A" or sneak drugging. After sensitization, the application of gas "B" results in the victim experiencing varying degrees of pain, disorientation, confusion, panic, and paranoia. Various physiological abnormalities manifest as a result of attacks over a prolonged period of time. The injuries may require surgical procedures to rectify. The binary gas attack technique has an enormous potential for inducing widespread mayhem as well as mood changes in legislative bodies. It is a great boon to secret applications since the method maximizes confusion as to who did what at what time and place. Its use seems to have been limited to tormenting and effectively neutralizing persons whom the government views as a threat to national security (read: the security of the federal gang). Whether the perceived threat is real or imaginary is beside the point. The government gang of mercenary thugs knows exactly why it deserves enemies. These diabolical and very tricky techniques of government torture have been extensively tested "in the field" upon emotionally disturbed persons with a history of hospitalization. Sensitized in a place away from home, the victim's subsequent complaints at home when hit with gas "B" are incomprehensible to those who are in close proximity to him. With a history of hospitalization, the victim's complaints can be plausibly dismissed with the catch-phrase "it's all in head." The specific gravity of the gasses is apparently adjustable. Gas "B" can be diffused in a low-level stretch of highway which the victim is approaching. It is a black bag technique with numerous variants all of which cause the victim pain and sometimes severe injuries without anyone near the victim having the slightest idea of what's actually happening. Introduced into a basement the gas may rise, escaping detection by gas chromatographs at ground level. Secret binary chemical (gas) warfare is the government's ace-in-the- hole. Recently, in some jurisdictions, the possession by civilians of gas masks has been decreed to be unlawful and forbidden. The topic is scary and is totally avoided by the prostituted corporate/ government media criminals. Everyone is led to believe that hi-tech secret torture techniques must be radiant and electrical in their fundamental nature. This is simply not the case -- sneak sensitization and gassing is what's actually going on. - End Forwarded Message - Get your FREE Email at http://mailcity.lycos.com Get your PERSONALIZED START PAGE at http://my.lycos.com A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

Re: [CTRL] GM pigs produce new wonder 'green' droppings
Oh i dunno - things have a way of tricking down to us plebes once in a while - besides who but the "elite" could've accomplished such fiats of the technocratic society we now live in and make use of. It takes many factors - hard work, brains, nous, investment, and so on, to get things achieved on whatever playing field you're on in this world - and for all this planets woes, and evils, its the only one we have - so we ought to work together as much as possible, and as best we can, even against all odds at times. As to the "evil" dudes - well generally, when there's an over abundance of rats, they tend eat there own anyway. Plagues will come of their own accord, lets not start them or add to them. Of course greater technological strides, also pose greater risk - hence intense research, laws, guidelines, and thought, ought to be essential components more than ever. Whilst humanity exists, for the present in a "good and evil" paradigm - that is, there near always seems to be some quirky negative that accompanies and shadows every positive advance in the modern era, that extra bit of caution would not go astray - as it does however, seem to be going presently. - Original Message - From: "tenebroust" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 05, 2000 1:48 PM Subject: Re: [CTRL] GM pigs produce new wonder 'green' droppings This stuff is truly frightening. Anyone who thinks human clones are not already walking and talking better just rethink their position. Genetic modification, cloning and the like, offer promise for better things for everybody (who wouldn't like to have ready ade spare parts if yours fail?), but it will only be the ELITES who have the best and SAFEST stuff. Us cannon fodder will have to make do with the second rate untested crap which causes cancer, environmental waste, etc. I suppose it is only a matter of time before "Animal Farm" comes to life and we have pigs with human arms and legs, now THAT is going too far in MO. On Thu, 04 May 2000, David Sutherland wrote: GM pigs produce new wonder 'green' droppings By Mary Dejevsky in Washington 2 May 2000 If consumers were dismayed by the news that hundreds of giant, genetically modified salmon are under production in Canada, they will be even more alarmed by the arrival of "enviro-pig", a beast genetically modified to produce low- phosphorus faeces that are deemed less harmful to the environment. A special report in The New York Times yesterday claimed that the pig is one of a whole menagerie of animals - cows, goats and sheep - being modified in America. Most are being altered to produce milk with specific medicinal properties, for instance sheep's milk used to treat cystic fibrosis. The fish could be on US dinner plates as early as next year and could be followed by the other animals shortly, thanks to scant intervention from the official US food safety watchdog, the Food and Drug Administration, The New York Times claimed. As with GM vegetables, the FDA's remit extends only to food safety, and so long as the mega-fish are not found to damage human health, they will be certified safe. Federal regulation, the paper says, is running well behind advances in the bio-technology sector, and the ease with which GM fish, pigs etc can reach consumers only exposes the many loopholes. In what one scientific critic described as "ludicrous", the FDA has decided to treat GM salmon as a drug and not a food for regulatory purposes. It currently has no authority to approve new foods before they go on the market - an omission which suits the producers, many of which are big and politically influential conglomerates. Nor can the growth hormone be regulated as an "additive" because it is not deemed to change the nature or quality of the fish. A further obstacle to the regulation of GM produce in the US is that ecological concerns are handled by the Environmental Protection Agency, quite separately from food safety, and it is environmental concerns that could be uppermost with GM fish. The newspaper cited one recent study as showing that certain types of wild fish could become extinct if they mated with GM fish: second generation GM fish, it was found, are shorter-lived and may be more prone to disease than conventionally bred fish.

[CTRL] Children Possibly Exposed to Hepatits A
Children Possibly Exposed to Hepatits A May 3, 2000 More than 700 California youngsters may have been exposed to hepatitis A when they ate strawberry-topped waffles at a Head Start program. The children, ages 3 to 5, were immunized against hepatitis on Wednesday, and 139 adults who ate the strawberries will also be immunized against the disease. The fruit was distributed by the Sysco Corp., who reported the possible contamination last week. It takes 15 to 50 days for hepatits A symptoms to appear. Hepatitis A, which affects the liver, can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and jaundice in adults but is relatively mild in children. Rare Disease Alert in New Zealand May 1, 2000 An alert for the rare but often fatal illness of amoebic meningitis was issued in the Waikato region of New Zealand on Monday after a 10-year-old girl was diagnosed with the disease. The last case of amoebic meningitis is believed to have occurred at least 20 years ago. Health officials warned that the illness is spread in heated swimming pools. The young victim had swum in thermal pools in central North Island during Easter vacation. Waikato Medical Officer of Health Dr. Dell Hood said, "The main message is not to jump or dive into such pools, and not to put your head under." She cautioned that anyone experiencing symptoms of vomiting, headaches and fever should quickly seek medical attention.

[CTRL] . If the War on Drugs cannot co-exist with the Bill of Rights, then it is time to call a halt to the War on Drugs!
FROM MOUNTAIN MEDIA APRIL 21, 2000 THE LIBERTARIAN, By Vin Suprynowicz: Rediscovering the Fourth Amendment. As little as 50 years ago, American movie audiences could be expected to hiss and boo as the Nazi Gestapo agent was shown insinuating himself through the passenger cars of some European train, ominously hissing, Papers, please? Only in totalitarian police states (Americans then understood) were citizens subject to random searches -- or any requirement that they show their papers at the mere whim of a suspicious government official. Then things began to change in America. Where once the Fourth Amendment (The right of the people to be secure .against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated) was presumed inviolate, now police complained such restrictions were making it impossible to fight the War on Drugs. The courts responded to the pragmatic realities of the Drug War by granting police a progressively greater presumption of compelling need to violate the terms of the Fourth first in a few cases of fleeing suspects; then in random traffic stops; finally tumbling down the slippery slope so far that today, It's OK that you killed these innocent homeowners in their beds, as long as it was your anonymous informant who got the address wrong. But you really should pay to fix the door. Now, finally, the U.S. Supreme Court seems to be rediscovering that ancient right of the people to be secure ... In 1997, Steven Dewayne Bond was a passenger on a Greyhound bus en route from California to Arkansas, when the bus was stopped at an immigration checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas. A Border Patrol agent checked the passengers' immigration status, and then felt their luggage. The agent squeezed a canvas bag in the bin over Bond's seat, and later told the court his perception of a ''brick-like object led him to suspect it contained drugs. When the agent asked Bond if he could open the bag, the agent testified he was told, Go ahead. Inside, the agent found a brick-shaped object covered in tape, later revealed to contain methamphetamine. Mr. Bond was convicted of drug possession and conspiracy (an all-purpose add-on charge, these days). Unless he manufactured the drugs from scratch, he obviously had to have conspired with somebody. The appeals court said the agent needed no search warrant, since Mr. Bond gave up any reasonable expectation of privacy when he exposed the bag to the public by putting it in the overhead bin. But on April 17, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Bond's conviction, Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist writing for the court that Physically invasive inspection is ... more intrusive than purely visual inspection. A citizen does not waive his privacy rights when he places his belongings in a piece of luggage, under the absurd theory that he is then inviting one and all to feel the bag in an exploratory manner, the court ruled. The 7-2 court majority is a strong one, with only Justices Antonin Scalia and Stephen Breyer dissenting, on the theory that enforcing the Fourth Amendment could deter law enforcement officers searching for drugs (Justice Breyer absurdly adding that travelers who want to safeguard the contents of their luggage from public touch should plan to pack those contents in a suitcase with hard sides. Sure. And those of us travelling by air can demonstrate our reluctance to waive our privacy rights by simply buying luggage with lead panels designed to block the omnipresent X-Rays ... right?) Indeed, the Fourth Amendment certainly does deter law enforcement officers searching for drugs. It doubtless does so every day. But an explicit delegation of power to Congress to fight a War on Drugs is difficult to locate -- some even arguing that the unenumerated rights protected by the Ninth Amendment must include the once unrestricted right to consume alcohol and other drugs, as our ancestors were free to do from 1600 to 1915 -- lest why would a constitutional amendment have been required to outlaw alcohol in 1919? I believe this is a correct and sensible reading of the Ninth. But even if the drug war were somehow legitimate, whenever a freedom specifically guaranteed by the Bill of Rights comes into conflict with the convenience of the police, the Bill of Rights must clearly prevail. If the War on Drugs cannot co-exist with the Bill of Rights, then it is time to call a halt to the War on Drugs for that reason, alone. In the meantime, the 7-2 majority of the high court managed to do the right thing in the case of Steven Dewayne Bond (Bond vs. U.S., 98-9349.) Vin Suprynowicz,[EMAIL PROTECTED] 5/5/00 Document2 2

[CTRL] My Nine Lives in Scientology by M. Pignotti 8/10
My Nine Lives in Scientology by M. Pignotti 8/10 http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Library/Shelf/pignotti/ We were just off the shore of South Carolina when Hubbard was warned that IRS agents were waiting on the docks to arrest Hubbard, so we headed for Bermuda, where we stayed for several weeks. This wonderful, peaceful voyage across the Atlantic, unbeknownst to me, was to be the calm before the storm. All hell was about to break loose. Here We Go Again -- Another Rollercoaster Ride While we were in Bermuda, Quentin returned from his vacation and dropped a bombshell. It seemed that his father tried to hush it up, but Quentin told me the whole story in a very calm, detached way. According to what Quentin told me, he had decided to kill himself again and had constructed an elaborate plan for his suicide. He flew to New York and took a room at the Times Square Hotel. He then took his passport, which was his only form of ID, and hid it behind the bathroom mirror in his hotel room. He didn't want anyone to know that he was the son of L. Ron Hubbard when his body was found. He then flew to San Francisco, where he planned to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge, but when it came time for him to jump, he just couldn't do it. After that, he was found wandering around on a road when he was stopped by police who were looking for someone who had committed a crime. They determined that Quentin didn't fit the description of the suspect, but since he seemed confused and disoriented, they took him to a mental hospital. In order to protect his family's name, Quentin pretended to have amnesia. He was in an institution for about two weeks when someone from Scientology tracked him down, at which point Quentin "regained his memory" of who he was and was released. He told me this story in a very matter-of-fact tone of voice, as if he were telling me about an innocuous vacation itinerary. I was horrified, and he noticed. He remarked that the expression on my face looked like the expression on his mother's face when he told her about it. Quentin and his mother were very close. In spite of all her other faults, Mary Sue really did love her children and Quentin seemed to be her favorite. To this day, I don't know if it was L. Ron Hubbard or Mary Sue, but someone was very upset that Quentin told me what happened. David Mayo, the Senior Case Supervisor, ordered me not to see Quentin anymore, without telling me who the order came from or why. I don't think the order originated with David. I asked him what was really going on and he flatly refused to discuss the matter further. David and I had gotten along pretty well in the past, but he was very firm on this issue. So was I. I said that Quentin was my friend, he needed me and I was going to be there for him. I told him that my personal life was none of his business. We got into a big argument. David's wife, Merrill, a top auditor on Flag, tried to get me to shut up to protect me, but I wouldn't back down. She knew I would get into trouble if I made waves, and she was right. David warned me that if I continued to see Quentin, I would be sent to the RPF. I continued to argue with him, and he put me on a retread, which meant I had to go back and review certain materials as an auditor. He also had an ethics officer talk to me, warning me of the consequences of having anything further to do with Quentin. I was supposed to just follow orders like a good little robot, but at that point, I still wasn't completely brainwashed, so I refused. I defied the order and kept right on seeing Quentin. There was still nothing sexual going on between us, but other people thought that there was and that we were hiding it. One time I had made a joke to Quentin taking a shower with him and somehow this came up in one of his auditing sessions and was written down, so I suppose David assumed that something was going on. I was incensed that my personal life was being interfered with and wasn't going to stand for it. Meanwhile, I had finished my retread of course materials and was back auditing on my Class VII internship. I was auditing another intern, Rick, on Power processes. His auditing went very well and he completed the grade before all the processes had been run. In Power, at the time, if the PC went exterior (meaning if he had an out of body experience), he was considered complete on the grade and no more Power processes or its companion, Power Plus were to be run. This was the case with Rick, and he happily attested to completion of the grade. One week later, Rick came down with a cold and I, as his auditor, was immediately blamed and accused of "out tech". Hubbard personally ordered to see the folder, which was something he didn't often do. The folder was inspected by one of his teenage messengers, Jill Goodman, who was not a trained auditor and didn't know the first thing about what to look for. She told Hubbard that I hadn't taken the correct action to repair his Power Plus, which was a bald faced lie.

My Nine Lives in Scientology by M. Pignotti 9/10 http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Library/Shelf/pignotti/ Those of us in the RPF began to spend more and more time on the photo shoots and less and less time on the RPF. Hubbard eventually formed an org called the "LRH Photoshoot Org", which consisted of many RPF members. For some reason, other than occasionally modelling for some of his pictures, I was not on the staff of the photo shoot org. The RPF gradually dwindled down until Ron Hopkins and I were the only ones left. Finally, the RPF disbanded entirely, and I was assigned to do Folder Error Summaries ("FESes"), which means going through people's auditing folders and noting down auditing errors that were made and the progress of the case, or lack, thereof. I was still not allowed to audit, but I was no longer on the RPF. In the fall, Hubbard sold the ship and we all moved to a land base at the Fort Harrison Hotel in Clearwater, Florida. The accomodations there were a big improvement over the ship. I shared a hotel room with two of my best friends, Lieke and Karen, both auditors. To anyone else, the room might have seemed crowded, but to us, we had more space than we had in years, as we were used to sleeping in a room with 50 other women on the ship. We even had a television set in our room. I hadn't watched TV in years. I would go up to my room during lunch breaks and after a day's work and watch TV. My favorite shows were "Star Trek" and "Bewitched", both in reruns at the time. Many people in the Sea Org loved Star Trek since we liked to think of ourselves of being on a mission, like the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise. In Florida, I continued FESing folders, which wasn't the most exciting job in the world, but it was peaceful. Some of the people who's folders I FESed were celebrities, such as Karen Black and Chick Corea. One day I went to see the intern supervisor at the time, Brian Livingstone, about getting my certificates back as an auditor. I assumed that he knew that LRH had ordered my certificates cancelled, but he didn't remember. Just as he was going to write me out a program, Judy Thiery came over to us and told him that LRH had cancelled my certificates. Brian was furious with me and accused me of trying to trick him. I said that I thought he had known what had happened with me and was just trying to find out how I could Bet my certificates back, but he refused to have anything further to do with me. In May, the Commanding Officer of AOLA, Gary Epstein, decided that he wanted me to return to Los Angeles and made a request to Flag. I was ordered to return to Los Angeles and assigned the position of Director of Processing at the Advanced Org in Los Angeles (AOLA), where I had originally come from. Before I left, Jeff Walker finally gave me a program that I could follow to regain my certificates as an auditor. As Director of Processing, I would be responsible for the solo auditing of all the people who came to AOLA to do the Clearing Course and OT levels. Even though it was a much better position than I currently had, FESing folders, I was very sorry to leave Florida. I had requested to remain in Florida, but my request was denied and I had no choice but to go to LA. In May, 1976 I assumed the post of Director of Processing at AOLA. I felt very much alone and kept my distance from everyone. Some people seemed to be in awe of me because of the fact I had spent so much time on Flag. No one knew about the trouble I had been in. I never got close to anyone at AOLA, the whole time I was there. Like most Sea Org living quarters, the condition of the house I lived in was shabby, but I had my own small room. The house was in LA and we commuted by van to Hollywood every day, where the org was located. As Director of Processing, I was receiving bonuses in addition to my regular Sea Org pay, so I decided to take an apartment outside the staff house at my own expense. I shared a very nice two-bedroom apartment across the street from where I worked, with two men who worked for the Guardian's Office, but were not Sea Org members. I shared a room with one of the men, Gene, but our relationship was strictly platonic. We slept in separate beds. Living outside of Sea Org housing was unusual for a Sea Org member, but I managed to get away with it, probably because I had come from Flag and no one dared to challenge me. Living in that apartment gave me more privacy than I'd had in years. I was becoming increasingly aware that I was not happy at all in the Sea Org. Gene was the only person I was at all close to and he wasn't in the Sea Org, even though he was in Scientology. I missed my friends on Flag (Florida) very much, especially Quentin. Quentin and I wrote to each other regularly. During the time I was in LA, I increasingly spent more and more time alone. I would go to my apartment every chance I got, just to get a way from the org. Sometimes, during my half hour lunch break, I would go there and just think

My Nine Lives in Scientology by M. Pignotti 10/10 http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Library/Shelf/pignotti/ I had saved up about $200 when I was Director of Processing and getting bonuses. When I left that position, I no longer got the bonuses that went along with it; only Sea Org pay, which was $10 a week at the time. Soon my $200 would be used up and I would have no money to go anywhere and would have to give up my apartment. I concluded that if I wanted to leave the Sea Org, it would have to be that day, before a Committee of Evidence was convened on me. It happened that I had the afternoon off that day, which gave me the perfect chance to leave, since I would not be missed until the following day, but I still hadn't made a final decision. I went for a swim, took a shower and put on a new dress my mother had sent me. Then I went to a pay phone and called the airlines to see if I could get a plane out of LA, but all the flights were booked up. Then I walked to the bus station to see when the next bus left to Michigan. There was a bus leaving at 6:00 PM and the fare was $125, which I could afford. The time was 2:30 PM. I returned to my apartment and found one of my roomates there. I tried to act normal. He went out to get a paper and I started to pack some of my things. Soon he returned and I hastily hid what I had packed. I told him I had just been for a swim and the water felt great, hoping he would go for a swim. Fortunately, he did and I was left alone, once again. Now there was nothing to stop me from leaving except the barriers I imposed on myself. For what seemed like a long time, but was probably no more than 5 minutes, I agonized over the final decision I knew I would have to make. I wanted to go, but was afraid. I knew that this would be my only chance to go. If I didn't do it that day, I might not get another opportunity for a long time, if ever. Yet I still vacillated between whether to go or whether to stay. I felt like I was making the biggest and toughest decision I ever had to make in my life. I finished packing some of my clothes in a small carry-on bag. I kept telling myself that I wasn't happy and that things were not going to get better; yet I still hesitated. Then, suddenly, I realized that making the decision to leave was never going to be easy and if I waited for it to feel easy, I would never do it. Finally, I took the plunge. I gathered up a few of my things and left the apartment. I knew I couldn't take everything I had with me because I might run into someone I knew on the way to the bus station and would have difficulty explaining the suitcases. I just took a small carry-on bag, a plastic bag and my handbag. I even made up a story to explain why I was carrying these bags if I ran into anyone on the street but, fortunately, I didn't have to use it. I was terrified of running into someone in the group, and of being stopped and locked up against my will. As soon as I arrived at the bus station in Hollywood, which was about a 10-minute walk from my apartment, I purchased my ticket to Michigan. Then I called my mother and told her I was coming home. She was overjoyed and strongly supported me in my decision to leave. She said, "I always knew you were a free spirit." At 5:00 PM my bus left Hollywood for LA, where I was to change busses. I had a splitting headache and was still worried about someone finding me. It wasn't until my bus pulled out of LA at 6:00 PM that I finally began to relax. I felt more relieved than I ever felt in my life. I felt as if a big weight had been lifted off me and that I was free at last. I Begin My New Life For nine months, I didn't do anything but stay home, try to make some sense out of what I had been through and adjust to my new life. One week after I left, I started recording my thoughts about what had happened to me in a journal, which I still have. I was very confused. For several months, I saw no one but my parents and felt very much alone. Six weeks after leaving, I made an attempt in my journal to analyze the group to see if I could figure out what went wrong. I wrote, "There is something very wrong with the way this group is being run -- something very basic that I can't quite put my finger on." At this point, I was not yet willing to hold LRH responsible for the situation and I didn't know anything about mind control. However, there is one observation that I made that I consider to be an insight that was of great value to me: that there was little or no real caring about people as human beings. People were only seen in terms of their usefulness to the group. An example I came up with was a young woman from Holland who was being trained as an auditor on Flag. She was still having difficulty with the English language and, as a result, had trouble with understanding the course materials and later, in her attempts to audit people. She was never able to progress beyond the most basic levels as an auditor because of her difficulty with the

Subject: Tim Swartz - EVIL AGENDA OF THE SECRET GOVERNMENT EVIL AGENDA OF THE SECRET GOVERNMENT Because of the foreseeable threat of communism's spread after WWII, secret alliances were formed between certain elements of U.S. intelligence with German agents who slowly infiltrated the U.S. military, government and large corporations. What is the connection between the New World Order and the Fourth Reich? Did the Nazi Government perish at the end of WWII, or simply go underground?

Dallman discovered the "Kaiser-Wilhelm-Inseln" at the western entrance of the Biskmarkstrasse along the Biscoue Islands. Exploring the polar regions, the Germans were already quite innovative, for the GRONLAND was the first steamship to see the Antarctic ice. Within the next 60 years 2 further expeditional thrusts took place, and two complete expeditions were fulfilled, namely 1910 under Wilhem Filchner with his ship DEUTSCHLAND, and 1925 with the special designed polar expedition ship, the METEOR under the command of Dr. Albert Merz. During the years before WWII the Germans claim to parts of Antarctica and the wish to possess their own base there grew stronger. By this time proof of Germany's claim to Antarctica by employing a single military strike seemed to be the best option. Hitler himself was anxious for a foothold in the Antarctic and such a claim could be used for National Socialistic propaganda and a further demonstration of the new "Superpower Germany." On the other hand, for political reasons, provoking the Allies had to be avoided. Germany was at this time not completely prepared for the coming war. As a matter of fact, the idea of a semi-civilian expedition in cooperation with the German national airline company, the LUFTHANSA developed. The command on this strike was given to the polar-experienced Captain Alfred Ritscher, who had already led some expeditions to the North Pole and proved courage and skill in critical situations. The selected ship was the MS SCHWABENLAND, a German aircraft carrier used since 1934 for transatlantic mail delivery by special flight-boats. The MS SCHWABENLAND left the port of Hamburg on December 17th 1938 heading to the Antarctic on a precisely planned and determined route that reached the ice on January 1 ~h 1939. The following weeks on 15 flights the flight-boats PASSAT and the BOREAS flew across some 600,000 square kilometers and made more than 11,000 pictures of the area. Nearly one fifth of the whole Antarctic area was scanned this way, thus documented for the first time and simultaneous claimed to be German territory. To stress this claim on the outside too, the two planes dismissed several thousands of drop-flags, special metal poles with expedition's insignia on them, the swastika." The whole territory was renamed NEUSCHWABENLAND. In 1938, long before the end of the Second World War, the Nazis continued to send out numerous exploratory missions to the Queen Maud region of Antarctica. A steady stream of expedkions were reportedly sent out from South Africa. Over 230,000 square miles of the frozen continent were mapped from the air, and the Germans discovered vast regions that were surprisingly free of ice, as well as warm water lakes and cave inlets. One vast ice cave within the glacier was reportedly found to extend 30 miles to a large hot-water geothermal lake deep below. Various scientific teams were moved in to the area, including hunters, trappers, collectors and zoologists, botanists, agriculturists, plant specialists, mycologists, parasitologist,

Chapter V Although the Cold War is apparently over, one reason that the United States may feel compelled to build secret aircraft and exotic weapons is that other countries may have exotic weapon systems of their own. In February 1992, Russian President, Boris Yeltsin, proposed to the United States and the United Nations to develop a global defense shield (with "Star Wars" type weapons) based on Russian Technology. Some might wonder what the Russian's could have developed in the way of Space Weapon's technology since the United States has claimed that the Soviets couldn't keep up with high technology development. The little-known truth is that the Russians started deploying an operational "Star Wars" defense system in 1977, and it has greatly grown and improved since then. It is a space triad, built around charged-particle beam and neutron particle beam weapons. In September 1977 the Russians started launching manned killer satellites, called "Cosmo's Interceptors," armed with charged-particle beam weapons, into earth orbit. By April 1978 there were about thirty-six satellites in orbit, by that time they had reportedly destroyed all American spy and early warning satellites. On September 27, 1977, a Cosmos Interceptor m Earth orbit used a neutron-particle beam weapon to wipe out a secret American laser-beam base nearing operational status in Copernicus Crater on the moon. The Russians then quickly deployed their own military bases on the moon. This was the second leg of their space triad, starting on October 4, 1977, with seven charged-particle beam weapon bases on the near side of the moon, and three support bases on the far side. The first test of the moon base weapons occurred on November 19, 1977, ironically at about the same time as the release of the first "Star Wars" movie with its "Death Star" weapon. The Russians were aiming at the eye of a cyclone near India. However, they miscalculated the deflection of the beam by the Earth's magnetic field, and the beam struck the ocean too close to the shore causing a tidal wave that killed hundreds of people in India and Bangladesh. A blast of charged-particle beams from two or more of the Russian moon bases fired in quick succession would create the destructive effect of a hydrogen bomb. The third leg of Russia's triad of space weapons is the "Cosmospheres." The first-generation Cosmospheres were weapon's platforms that were Electrogravtic, powered by nuclear reactors. The ships were horizontally positioned by rocket thrusters, and were invisible to radar beyond about 40 miles, possibly from a stealth-like radar-absorbing coating on their surface. The Cosmospheres were armed with charged-particle beam weapons and equipped with 'Psycho-energetic range finding," which tunes into the actual atomic signature of a target or object and cannot be jammed. Some of these craft were also armed with microwave brain-scrambling equipment. In late 1977 and early 1978, there was a strange rash of air booms along the east coast of the United States. These air booms were never satisfactorily explained, by either the government, the scientific establishment, or the news media. The mystery explosions couldn't be positively identified wit any particular Super Sonic Transport plane (SST) or other aircraft, and indeed they were much louder than aircraft sonic booms. The giant airbooms were actually caused by Russian Cosmospheres f'ring charged particle beams down into the atmosphere. The main

WASHINGTON -- U.S. and European police agencies will receive new powers to investigate and prosecute computer crimes, according to a preliminary draft of a treaty being circulated among over 40 nations. The Council of Europe's 65KB proposal is designed to aid police in investigations of online miscreants in cases where attacks or intrusions cross national borders. But the details of the "Draft Convention on Cybercrime" worry U.S. civil libertarians. They warn that the plan would violate longstanding privacy rights and grant the government far too much power.

[CTRL] Judges Authorize More Wiretaps
Privacy Concerns - http://www.angelfire.com/biz/privacyconcerns/index.html Judges Authorize More Wiretaps .c The Associated Press By LAURIE ASSEO WASHINGTON (AP) - The number of wiretaps authorized by federal and state judges rose by 2 percent last year, with more than 70 percent of them approved to investigate possible drug crimes, the government reports. Federal courts authorized 601 wiretaps in 1999, up by 6 percent from 566 authorized a year earlier, according to figures released this week by the Administrative Office of U.S. Courts. State judges allowed 749 wiretaps last year, down by 2 percent from the 763 authorized a year earlier. The 1998 number had been a 24 percent increase from the previous year. Last year's numbers add up to 1,350 wiretaps authorized by federal and state judges, up from 1,329 in 1998. A decade earlier, in 1989, there were 763 wiretaps authorized nationwide. Seventy-two percent of all wiretaps were aimed at catching drug criminals. Also investigated with wiretaps were alleged crimes of racketeering, homicide and gambling. The report said 676 orders were for electronic wiretaps - such as buggings of cellular phones and electronic pagers - compared with 399 for stationary phones. In 1998, there were 576 electronic taps and 494 for stationary phones. Jim Dempsey of the Center for Democracy and Technology, a privacy advocates' group, said, ``The fact that the greatest rate of increase is in the newer technologies undercuts the argument that we normally hear from the government about how hard it is for them to do their job in the face of new technology.'' The report said judges authorized all wiretaps that were requested. ``That says to me the legal standards are not strict enough,'' Dempsey said, while ``more and more information is out there to be intercepted.'' The federal government, the District of Columbia and 42 states allow courts to order wiretap surveillance. New York had by far the most wiretaps authorized, with 343. Next was California with 76, New Jersey with 71, Pennsylvania with 69 and Illinois with 50. Those states made up 81 percent of all authorizations by state judges.

[CTRL] PG LAWYERS AND ELECTIED OFFICE.doc
Title: The Miami Herald, July 6, 1999 Should Lawyers Run For Non-judicial Office The Miami Herald, July 6, 1999 Should Lawyers Run For Non-judicial Office? Ronald Bibace is a Fort Lauderdale businessman and constitutional scholar. Lawyers who are members of the Florida Bar are barred legally from running for public office in the executive and legislative branches. The Constitution prohibits them from running for mayor, commissions, school board, sheriff, the Legislature or any other elected office that is not part of the judicial branch of government. The language of the Florida Constitution's separation-of-powers clause, Article II, Sect. 3, is unambiguous. It states: No person belonging to one branch shall exercise any powers appertaining to either of the other two branches unless expressly provided herein. In 1949 the Florida Bar was unified with, and became a part of the Supreme Court. (See Petition of Florida State Bar Assn. 40 So. 2d 902.) That made every state Bar member/lawyer a person belonging to the judiciary branch of government. They are, therefore barred from holding public office in the other two branches of government. This prohibition is not an unintended consequence of the 1949 action by Florida's lawyers. The prohibition lies at the very heart and the soul of both the Florida and the US constitutions. Nonlawyer James Madison's Constitution had one principal goal: to create a government that had sufficient power to govern, but insufficient power to oppress. To do so, he neutralized the first four known sources of tyranny, which he identified as the monarchy, the aristocracy, the military and the church. Madison then addressed the last source of tyranny, which he defined as: a same-hands group or faction that had a common interest adverse to the Nation as a whole. Lawyers and every other professional group fit this definition. To protect the state against this same hands tyranny, Madison implicitly instituted the separation-of power principle in the US Constitution. In Florida, Article II, Section 3, is the explicit state equivalent. Florida lawyers and the judges have ignored this prohibition. What is true in Florida is also true all over the land. From this abuse of power by the legal profession, this nation now suffers from what Madison, Montesquieu, Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton called, the very definition of tyranny. That tyranny arises when a single same-hands group makes the law, enforces the law and interprets the law. That tyranny, whether or not perceived, is at the heart of most of the nation's problems in the areas of crime, education, health, welfare, frivolous lawsuits, devastating divorces and countless other problems. That tyranny has undermined the Constitution and fundamentally flawed all government. It has resulted in enormous harm to people, both in dollars and emotional distress. Historically tyrants neither acknowledge their tyranny nor voluntarily give up their power. That explains why the members of the legal profession are in a state of denial. That is why the people must correct the situation by voting all lawyers out of office outside the judicial branch. Until that occurs, very little substantial and permanent improvement will occur anywhere. If the situation is not corrected, the nation likely will go down to chaos, revolution and, perhaps, even civil war in the near future.

[CTRL] AIDS Virus Could Fight Disease
Could HIV be an engineered Viral vaccine gone wrong?? Carl AIDS Virus Could Fight Disease May 5, 2000 Stripped of its harmful components, the AIDS virus could become a vital weapon in the fight against genetic diseases, cancer and even AIDS itself, a research team announced Thursday. The team from the Pasteur Institute in Paris said it can show that the AIDS virus is capable of introducing genes into an organism to replace faulty genes which can provoke genetic diseases. The virus could also be used as a "transporter" to deliver a vaccine to suppress cancerous tumors, or in the case of AIDS to introduce blocking genes to stop the spread of the virus. "All the genes in the (AIDS) virus would be replaced by 'healing-genes', and we would only keep from the actual virus the machinery which allows it to penetrate into cells," according to study leader Pierre Charneau. The transporter virus is to be tested soon on monkeys infected with the SIV virus, closely related to HIV. Researchers will use it to try to stop the illness which normally kills the animal within six months.

[CTRL] INFOTERRA: HAARP poses credible threat to ionosphere
In a message dated 00-05-04 05:19:23 EDT, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I am, however, puzzled as to why some people seem to have chosen the least likely and indeed, seemingly the least harmful possible effect of HAARP-like technology Ross- Thank you for such a thoughtful response. I am glad we are friends and can debate issues over Infoterra without projecting ;-) HAARP is a difficult technology for environmental impact-analysis. Historically there are several separate environmental impact issues around HAARP: 1) HAARP's detrimental environmental impact on the ionosphere, the magnetosphere: Earth Island's articles are probably the classic on this issue, they are critiques of the original Environmental Impact Statement for HAARP. You are quite right- HAARP could deconstruct the ionosphere, and hence destabilize the biosphere. You can read the EcoNews version of these two HAARP articles at: http://www.globalpsychics.com/lp/Insights/HAARP_project.htm http://www.globalpsychics.com/lp/Insights/HAARP_project1.htm 2) HAARP's use as an electronic weapon, for Mass Mind Control and/or environmental war (Weather and Climate war; Tectonic war). This possible function of HAARP is much more problematical to discuss. One reason is that environmental and mind control weapons generally use electromagnetic pulse (EMP) generators, where as HAARP is an ELF (extremely low frequency) generator. You will find experts to be virulently divided as to the Mind Control or Weapon's potential of HAARP. The problem is that the issue of electronically induced Mind Control, and environmental weapons is real. Its victims are real, ranging from the individual to entire nations and regions of people. Likewise, the issues of tectonic warfare and climate warfare, documented since the mid 1970s. are real. One way to continue the dialogue around this issues, without the skeptics going into denial (which is harmful to the body politic), may be to focus on EMP weapons, which the HAARP issues sort themselves out. My article on EMP weapons and environmental war is at: http://www.globalpsychics.com/lp/Prophecy/emp.htm The essential problem for the public interest scientist, and the environmentalist is that electronic weapons are military secrets. Therefore, all of the research and applications of EMP weapons are classified, and it is difficult to access information. HAARP was different, since it involved an antenna farm in Alaska, and was thus subject to environmental impact laws. My suggestion would be to run Internet searches on terms such as "EMP" environmental war" "EMP and weather war" etc. and build up a research data base. At this stage, probably the most well known application of EMP weapons is as anti-population mind control weapons. From an environmentalist's perpective, the weather, climate and tectonic war applications are relevant, as are the straight-on enti-environmental impacts such as destruction of tjhe ionosphere.

[CTRL] MAY 5, 2000
Greetings Friends, PLEASE POST FAR AND WIDE!!! Today, MAY 5, is a day of great significance. According to the great sun stone calendar of the Aztec culture a cycle of 5200 hundred years known as the 5th sun will end and the dawning of the sixth sun of solar consciousness will dawn. A full description by the decoder Dr. Jose Arguelles, founder of Earth Day, organizer of the Harmonic Convergence and author of "The Mayan Factor: path beyond technology", is included below. According to Dr. Arguelles and many others the Earth is in a precarious state of energetic disequlibrium. The potential for devastating consequences on on May 5 are high. Through his development of the science of the whole or holonomics he has devised a very specific meditation intended to stabilize the earths poles on May 5. I understand that there will be worldwide meditations on May 5. I encourage all of you who will be participating the meditations to include the meditation devised by Dr. Arguelles. The link to the meditation is as follows. http://www.tortuga.com/ollin/3.html THE PROPHECY OF THE GREAT AZTEC SUN CALENDAR AS DECODED BY DR. JOSE ARGUELLES NAHUI OLLIN 9-1-1 Emergency World Peace Meditation A Program of the Law of Time Nahui Ollin, the Prophecy: " ... on the day 4 Earth [Nahui Ollin], the Fifth Sun, Nahui Ollin [4 Earth], will end, and the coming Sixth Sun of solar-galactic consciousness will dawn ..." Verification of the Aztec Sun Stone: 13 Acatl = 13 Skywalker at the apex of the Sun Stone; Nahui (4) Ollin = 4 Earth, the all-embracing center of the Sun Stone. On the Dreamspell 13 Moon Calendar, Kin 13, 13 Skywalker occurs on the 28th day of the Planetary Moon; Kin 17, 4 Earth occurs four days later on the fourth day of the Spectral Moon. On the Gregorian Calendar these dates are May 1 - May 5, 2000, the Week of Destiny, the Day of the Shaking Earth. The program for the Day of the Shaking Earth, Nahui Ollin, which features the extraordinary planetary lineup, is from the 260 Postulates of the Dynamics of Time: "9.11 The lineup of all of the planets, except Earth, on the other side of the Sun, Spectral Moon 4, Red Self-Existing Earth (May 5, 2000), provides a collective telepathic test for the activation of the electromagnetic polar flux tube regulators. The object is the creation of a telepathic field of magnetic resistance to stabilize the planetary poles." The 911 Emergency World Peace Meditation is based upon the Law of Time and should fulfill the requirements of Postulate 9.11. The day 13 Skywalker is the seventh and last day of the Seven Day Earth Wizards Intensive on the Law of Time. Nahui Ollin: Quetzalcoatl's Final Prophecy - A testament of the Sun Stone affirmed by the tradition of the Chilam Balam (Mayan-Galactic Terma decoded by the Closer of the Cycle VV). Nahui Ollin: Sun Stone 4 Earth - 13 Skywalker, 13-Moon-28-Day Terma of Quetzalcoatl to further the birth of the coming of the true religion of the One God Hunab Ku, One Giver of Movement and Measure, the power of the coming Solar Age, the Sixth Sun of Consciousness. Biosolartelepathic Event Horizon: 10.28 - 11.4, cosmic-self-existing principle-of-time chromatic, Kin 13 - Kin 17, Week of Destiny, Day of Destiny, Day of the Shaking Earth, Nahui Ollin. Where will you be? What will you know when the Fifth Sun ends and the Sixth Sun begins? Nahui Ollin: Corpus Profeticum Quetzalcoatl, Legacy of White Solar Wind Anihilation and resurrection are potencies of the center of the Earth. The Fifth Sun dies and the Sixth Sun is born - through the center of the Earth. All prophecies, prophets, and messengers of ancient Mesoamerica form a common interlinked whole. This whole comprises theCorpus Profeticum of ancient Mesoamerica. The principle prophet and unifier of this prophetic network is Quetzalcoatl. For this reason, the entire structure of prophecy and revelation of ancient Mesoamerica is referred to as the Corpus Profeticum Quetzalcoatl. It is Quetzalcoatl who links the tomb of Pacal Votan to the Aztec Sun Stone. It is Quetzalcoatl who unifies the Annals of the Cakchiquels with the visionary architecture of Teotihuacan, Xochi Calco, Chichen Itza, and behind it all, Tula - historic Tula, mystic and mythic Tollan. It is Quetzalcoatl who opens the key to the prophetic tradition of Chilam Balam and who rearises on countless tenement walls as the Plumed Serpent Vision of the Coming Sixth Age of Consciousness. If Pacal Votan is Abraham, Quetzalcoatl is Moses, Jesus and Muhammad all in one. The personality of Ce Acatl Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl is the catalytic node that emanates meaning to all the other aspects of the prophetic mind stream of Mesoamerican civilization. While Pacal Votan was associated with Venus as the evening star, Quetzalcoatl was associated with Venus as the morning star. Nahui Ollin, the Fifth Sun, encloses the four previous suns: Nahui Ocelotl, Nahui Ehecatl, Nahui Quiahuitl, and Nahui Atl. Each of the Suns is destroyed on the
[CTRL] China: Environment 3 Gorges Dam
Dam Politics: How Three Gorges Plays in Beijing Summary Citing environmental and financial concerns, members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) petitioned the government to slow work on the Three Gorges Dam. The CPPCC is a consultative body with little official power but a constituency that covers all of China. The real target, however, is not the dam but its patron, the hardliner Li Peng. The dam is in the middle of a political struggle, and the results of the struggle will alter the balance of power within the Communist Party. Analysis Fifty-three engineers and water experts urged the Chinese government May 3 to delay work on the Three Gorges Dam, according to the South China Morning Post. The petition was more than a judgement on the environmental and financial wisdom of the project - with one third of the signatories belonging to the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference it was a political attack on Li Peng, the head of the National People's Congress and the dam's biggest sponsor. The Three Gorges Dam is one of the biggest construction projects in history. If completed, the 600-foot structure blocking the Yangtze River will be the largest hydroelectric dam in the world - five times wider than America's Hoover Dam. The government expects it to supply China with 11 percent of its power. However, this progress comes at a cost, as more than 1.2 million people in more than 1,400 towns will be displaced by the reservoir. ___ Would you like to see full text, photo and accompanying articles? http://www.stratfor.com/SERVICES/giu2000/050400.ASP ___ Corruption and mismanagement have plagued construction. The project was originally expected to cost about $11 billion, but recent estimates put that cost at more than $24 billion, not counting the cost of resettling those displaced by the waters. Stories about shoddy engineering are common. The Chinese government has admitted that more than $56 million was stolen from the project last year, but that number is probably low. The dam might not even work. Petitioners argued that the dam's water reservoir could submerge drainage outlets in the nearby city of Chongqing and back up its sewage system. Upstream, silt will build up and make it difficult to produce hydropower. The Three Gorges Dam sits squarely in the middle of the ideological debate over the direction of China's economy. Prime Minister Zhu Rongji, the country's leading reformer, has responsibility for the dam but has consistently criticized it. Li Peng, a 72-year-old Soviet-trained engineer and Zhu's biggest rival, is the real sponsor. Li has advocated the dam since the idea was brought up under the original economic reformer, former President Deng Xiaoping, and Li had responsibility for the dam until 1998. President Jiang Zemin appears content to let the two sides attack each other. ___ For more on China, see: http://www.stratfor.com/asia/countries/china/default.htm __ The state of the Three Gorges Dam reflects poorly on Li, and criticizing the project is the same as criticizing Li. This latest attack is particularly well timed, as the Chinese government has started out the year with a strong official stance against corruption. Li's apparent hypocrisy makes him look all the worse. Li can hardly proclaim the advantages of state control of the economy while connected to a colossal failure. He has two ways of avoiding this fate. First, he could whip the construction project into shape, cutting graft, improving work quality and showing the world the efficacy of Chinese central planning. Much more likely, Li can try to shift the blame for the project on to Zhu's capitalists and their forerunners. Even better, Li can blame the one man who can't fight back - the late Deng Xiaoping. After all, it was his idea. The 26 million tons of concrete for the dam will likely be poured, if by nothing else than bureaucratic inertia. However, it will cost the Chinese government an incredible amount of money and a large amount of credibility as well. Zhu will continue to hound Li, and Jiang will likely let the two sides spend time fighting each other. Li can do what he can to shirk the responsibility, but his power will be restrained by the 600-foot reminder that all of China can see. _ earthradioTV.com - Alternative News Forum for ecology, politics consciousness.

The judge's ruling followed widespread condemnation of a life jail sentence imposed on British farmer Tony Martin after he shot and killed a teenage burglar.

David Summers, 21, suffered a cracked wrist, elbow, ribs and skull after he broke into Lee Gapper's house, according to the reports. The judge said Gapper, 20, and his lodger George Goodayle, 21, used reasonable force after the break in. ``You brought that (the beating) on yourself and I have no sympathy for those who receive hurt while committing a crime,'' the Guardian newspaper quoted Judge Hugh Mayor as saying.

[CTRL] Fw TIMES: British Forces Go For Horse Power
THE TIMES (London) May 5 2000 British forces go for horse power BY MICHAEL EVANS, DEFENCE EDITOR A BRITISH cavalry regiment serving in Kosovo is to revert to its historic form of transport, replacing the Challenger 2 battle tank with horses. A special "riding troop" is being formed from the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards - motto "No one touches me with impunity" - to mount horse patrols in the most mountainous areas in northeast Kosovo. The regiment is based in Pudujevo. Unable to drive their Land Rovers, let alone their Challenger 2s, the most advanced tank in the British Army, along the winding tracks, the regiment's commanding officer, Lieutenant-Colonel David Allfrey, came up with the idea of using horses. Until now the regiment has had to resort to foot patrols. The cavalrymen need to patrol in the hills to reach the village of Slipovo to protect Serb families. The regiment is advertising for local horses. The riding troop wants 15 horses. "Provided they get enough, the troop will start patrolling on horseback in a few days," a spokeswoman for the British forces in Kosovo said. A British officer in Kosovo added: "Our tanks and our armoured personnel carriers cannot cope with the hilly terrain around Pudujevo and sending in foot patrols just takes too much time. Horses can cover the ground a lot quicker than any other form of transport." A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

Mitrovica The petition for the Serb hunger strikes has met great response. The preliminary list of supporters is sent out now as the solidarity delegation is now leaving to Kosovo. But adhesion to the petition are still to be made. Yugoslav-Austrian Solidarity Movement ** To: Bernard Kouchner, UNMIK governor Juan Ortuno, KFOR commander chief protectorate prosecutor Kaplan Baruti, president of the court of Kosovska Mitrovica Sven Eric Laarsen, UNMIK police chief of Kosovska Mitrovica Freedom for the political prisoners in Kosovo who are in hunger strike We, the undersigned individuals and organisations, request the UN protectorate authorities, UNMIK, to immediately release the thirty-six Serbs and Roma who are in hunger strike, as well as their five fellow detainees in the UN prison of Kosovska Mitrovica, if they are only being accused of summary offences. Substantiation: 1 For almost one year the non-Albanian detainees are being held without the prospect of trials in court. According to press statements, not even preliminary examinations are being conducted. 2 At the same time, assassins motivated by Albanian nationalism such as the recent case of Dzeljalj Ademi, who threw a hand grenade in the Serb Ghetto of Mitrovica, injuring 22 Serb civilians and 14 French NATO soldiers are released without being tried. 3 Until now the protectorate judiciary was not at all able to dispel the massive doubts of their impartiality. 4 Under the given circumstances as the UK/KSK is still armed and still acting as a belligerent power in a civil war and expelled great parts of the national minorities and political critics to own and to carry weapons, which is the main accusation against the detained non-Albanians, is pure self-defence. To detain the non-Albanians of Kosovska Mitrovica obviously has political and nationalist motives and they have to be freed immediately.

Hello Ethan: I have put this matter out to several law lists as well. The matter of "robot rights" seems humorous or frivolous at first. But a scientist from BT wrote in the last issue of The Futurist that he expects to see robots given something akin to human rights (in some degree) by the next decade. If the programmer has First Amendment rights, why not an autonomous robot programmer (when the technology gets to that stage)? Kurzweil (1999) says he expects to see conversational programming which will "pass the Turing test" in about 20 years. Just something to put on the back burner for now. Thanks for your interest.

IF If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you But make allowance for their doubting too, If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream - and not make dreams your master, If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools: If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breath a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all men count with you, but none too much, If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Re: [CTRL] PI INCOME TAXES ARE VOLUNTARY.doc WE HOPE- RON W
Right off the bat let me say that I hate the IRS and support any efforts to oppose them and the oppressive taxation we live under, as well as their holier than thou attitude, and "presumed guilty" mindset. Having said that though this case is twaddle and will probably be thrown out as a nuisance, and the man forced to pay even more money. The only hope he has is that he is a foriegn national, and if it goes to trial with a jury. The jury will have some prejudice against the IRS that should help him. The idea of voluntary compliance is such that the IRS does no investigation or tracking of individual taxpayer information, thus they rely upon your voluntary compliance (they CAN'T MAKE or FORCE you to file a return or tell them how much you make) in order to determine your tax liability. (Thus, there is a possibility that if you never file, and remain below the radar, with cash paying jobs then you may escape forever paying any taxes.) NOW, they can't force your voluntary compliance, BUT if you do not "voluntarily comply" they can forcibly take any monies that you are obliged to pay, if they find you. They can get all your records, and determine the tax that you owe, and they can make you pay, even garnishing wages and selling your property.

[CTRL] Fwd: Company Urges WorldWide Water Testing After Australian...
In a message dated 5/5/00 5:54:02 PM Central Daylight Time, AOL News writes: Subj:Company Urges WorldWide Water Testing After Australian... Date: 5/5/00 5:54:02 PM Central Daylight Time From: AOL News BCC: Ahab42 Company Urges WorldWide Water Testing After Australian Legionella Outbreak PORTLAND, Maine, May 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Officials at Binax today encouraged all facilities with either cooling towers, air conditioning systems, whirlpool baths, vegetable misters or any type of hot water system to test for the presence of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1. Legionella is the ubiquitous bacterium that causes up to 90% of all cases of Legionnaires' Disease, a deadly, atypical pneumonia. Over 13,000 cases are reported in the US each year, yet most cases are unreported due to liability issues and many cases are undiagnosed. Outbreaks could be reduced if facilities practiced routine testing of their water systems. Manufacturers of a new, rapid water test for Legionella, the Binax Equate Water Test, issued the warning after the recent Legionella outbreak at an aquarium in Australia in which 66 people became ill and at least two died. The outbreak is thought to have been caused by the aquarium's air conditioning system. While Legionnaires' Disease is deadly, it can be treated with antibiotics and it can also be prevented. If facilities routinely test their water supplies, they can monitor water for the presence of the disease-causing bacteria, and decontaminate the water if there is a problem and before people fall ill. Joe O'Kelly, business unit manager explains the benefits of the test, "The Equate test was developed to help prevent situations such as the outbreak in Australia. Recent reports have indicated that authorities there have relied on tests which show a total bacterial count. When it comes to Legionella, that's meaningless because total bacterial counts don't indicate high or low levels of the Legionella bacteria. You can have low total bacterial counts and very high Legionella counts. Conversely, you can have high total bacterial counts and low Legionella counts and not know the difference unless you specifically test for Legionella." The new Equate Water test provides a result in under an hour and is available immediately. Binax, Inc., a Portland-based pioneer of rapid diagnostics for infectious diseases, developed the world's first Legionella test in 1991 and created the new Equate test because customers expressed the desire for a test which would give an indication of a Legionella problem faster than other test methods. Other test methods currently on the market take up to two weeks before results are available. Physicians and hospitals are also being encouraged to test any symptomatic patients with the Binax Now Urinary Antigen Test for Legionella, a 15- minute urine test which will let physicians know in life-saving minutes whether or not their patients have Legionnaires' Disease. That is especially important since this type of pneumonia preys on people with weakened immune systems and mimics the symptoms of other respiratory illnesses. The symptoms of Legionnaires' Disease include high fever, dry cough and diarrhea. When diagnosed early, the pneumonia can be successfully treated with antibiotics. In July, an outbreak occurred in Maryland at a nursing home. In February of 1999, 233 people became ill at a flower show in Amsterdam. Of those, 150 were confirmed to have Legionnaires' Disease and 23 died. The source of infection was a whirlpool which was at the entrance of the show. Up to 13,000 cases are reported each year in the United States, alone. However, due to liability issues and a lack of mandatory testing guidelines in the United States, many cases go unreported and often undiagnosed. To order the Equate Water Test for Legionella or the NOW Urinary Antigen Test for Legionella, call Binax immediately at 1-800-323-3199 or visit the company's website at www.binax.com.

[CTRL] Virus Alert
It has been reported that copy cats are hard at work building on the now infamous 'ILOVEYOU' worm, with a new worm called 'Mother's Day', along with other variants. As many as five new strains of the "ILOVEYOU" worm have surfaced in the last 24 hours after the first version appeared, including one labeled "fwd: Joke," and another called "very funny". Industry experts say many more can be expected in the coming days and weeks. Security experts believe the most destructive of the lot will be the so-called "Mother's Day virus." That strain has the subject line "Mother's Day Order Confirmation," with text that states the recipient's credit card has been charged $326.92 for a Mother's Day diamond special. The e-mail urges the recipient to examine the attached invoice carefully and save it. Once the fictional invoice is opened, the virus is in motion again. This virus deletes system files including .INI and .BAT files - causing more problems than the 'ILOVEYOU' worm - possibly preventing systems from booting.

WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! __O__ ON THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE The American Conservative Union Foundation, one of the nation's leading conservative institutions, announced that thirty-six national conservative organizations have formed a coalition to lobby at the national party conventions for the adoption of conservative platform planks. Among the groups are Americans for Tax Reform, the Christian Coalition, Citizens Against Government Waste, the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the Independent Women's Forum, the National Rifle Association, National Right to Life PAC, and National Taxpayers Union. From the Bush campaign journal... George W. announced that Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson, who has strong pro-life and conservative credentials, would head the Republican National Convention's platform committee. RNC Chairman Jim Nicholson called Gov. Thompson "an articulate advocate of smaller, smarter government, greater freedom and stronger families. His leadership and vision will be invaluable as our party crafts a platform that reflects the hopes and ideas of Republicans and a majority of Americans." Meanwhile, Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge said the GOP platform plank should be changed to reflect a wider range of Republicans' views on abortion. "The fact that it fails to recognize that good people could differ is not the best kind of signal that you would want to send, in my judgment." The current platform as approved in 1996 states, "The unborn child has a fundamental individual right to life, which cannot be infringed." An appendix states, however, "The Republican Party welcomes individuals on each side of the abortion issue, encourages their open discussion, solicits their active participation in the party, and respects their positions and beliefs." Mr. John McCain is still hovering in the wings. Asked if he would "enthusiastically endorse" Mr. Bush even if they do not reach an agreement on campaign finance reform, McCain said, "If I didn't, I would be litmus testing him, and I don't think that's appropriate for me to do. But I believe he has begun to and is continuing to pursue a reform agenda." On the trail, talking about colossal mistakes, George W. had this to say about that "read my lips" thing: "I think the mistake was to say, 'read my lips' ... and then raise the taxes. I think it undermined some of his credibility, particularly with Republicans and fiscal conservatives." Memo to Mr. Bush: The mistake was not keeping his word with the American people, and that undermined virtually ALL of his credibility with fiscal and social conservatives. Observation Points: "Senator McCain said he was going to drop out of the presidential race. But he hasn't quite gotten around to it yet. He's still clutching the microphone and waiting for his close-up. And he's still scuffling with W., trying to out-macho, out-patriot and out-moralize the man who beat him." -- Maureen Dowd {} "On key issues, Bush sounds more like a centrist democrat than Gore. ... On a series of major issues, Bush has embraced the exact position taken by the [Democratic Leadership Council] and its congressional allies, while Gore has either kept his distance or actively opposed the DLC stance. .. [While] disagreements between Bush and an organization so intimately linked to the Clinton administration are hardly surprising...it's more revealing that Bush and the DLC agree so much." --Ron Brownstein {} "...[R]unning as a Republican on Democrats' rhetoric is hardly an example of high principles." --Thomas Sowell From Bore2000 -- The "Family Values" Campaign... "Tipper and I send the best wishes for a wonderful event. We are proud to have you here." --A letter from Al Gore to the organizers of the Millennium March for Equality, a rally of homosexual advocates featuring Ellen DeGeneres, who told the crowd that she would like to shove the counter-demonstrators' signs "up their" Another speaker suggested using the Washington Monument as, shall we say, a strap-on organ to sodomize conservatives. In other news from the Vice Prevaricator, he proposed drug-test requirements for prisoners and parolees -- excluding White House employees. On Mr. Bush, Gore says, "He dangerously fixates on the Cold War past when speaking of the use of force. He suggests he would not intervene to relieve even the brutal repression of ethnic cleansing and genocide. One has to assume these gaps in Governor Bush's foreign policy views will be filled by the ideologies and inveterate antipathies of his party; the right wing, partisan isolationism of the Republican congressional leadership. ... We are in a global age. Like it or not, we live in an age when our destinies and the destinies of billions of people around the globe are increasingly intertwined. We should neither bemoan nor naively idealize this new reality. We should deal with it." Translation: Let's do

We respectfully ask our readers to take a moment and pray for our colleague, his daughter, who grieves in her father's absence.) In the news this week, as if Americans of Cuban origin have not been sufficiently demoralized, the CIA announced that the U.S. government was aware that the Soviet Union had at least a week's advance notice of the date for the U.S.-backed Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba, but Kennedy went ahead with the operation anyway -- apparently a practice run for how to manage the Vietnam War. You may recall that in an effort to oust Cuban dictator Fidel Castro, on April 17, 1961, the 1,400 CIA-trained Cuban exiles were sent to overthrow Castro -- with American air cover to follow. Kennedy cancelled the air support before the freedom fighters had even landed on Cuban shores. Castro's Communists dispatched with the exiles in less than 72 hours, killing 200 and capturing 1,197 others and subjecting them to all manner of torture. It was almost as if the Reds knew the freedom fighters were coming! Fast forward This week, the U.S. Customs Service announced that its agents seized tranquilizers (diazepam and phenobarbital) from Dr. Caridad Ponce de Leon as she entered the country. Ponce de Leon was sent here by Castro, with the State Department's approval, to give any necessary "treatment" to little Elian Gonzalez in preparation for his return to his island prison. Open Query... "The one consistent policy running through this [Clinton] administration is the love it has lavished on Marxists -- food aid for North Korea, diplomatic recognition of the Hanoi regime, chronic kowtowing to Beijing and now doing Castro's dirty work.

"If you give me the chance, I will be a law-and-order president." --Al Gore From "The most ethical administration"... We are shocked -- SHOCKED! -- to report that Jane Weaver, former assistant general counsel in the Office of Administration in the White House, has filed an affidavit regarding the AWOL White House e-mails charging John Podesta, the current White House chief of staff, with purposely misleading the courts in a separate matter (Armstrong v. Executive Office of the President) which also involves e-mail. Weaver states, "I vividly remember one Clinton White House meeting (I believe it was in the West Wing), which included then-Deputy Chief of Staff John Podesta, lawyers from the White House Counsel's Office, and the Department of Justice where the Armstrong case and related affidavits were discussed. Over my objections, it was decided by Podesta and others at the meeting to pursue a course of action I felt was misleading and legally inconsistent with prior sworn declarations to the court. There was definite pressure on me from the Clinton White House and Counsel's Office to obtain misleading affidavits." Though White House officials knew in February 1999 that e-mail messages subpoenaed by a federal grand jury and three congressional committees had not been turned over, ostensibly, because of a computer glitch, they failed to mention this to any of the investigators. New records also indicate that three months earlier, at the pinnacle of the impeachment inquiry, a large volume of e-mail for White House aide Sidney Blumenthal was intentionally deleted from his personal computer. C'mon, folks, even the Nixon plumbers weren't this brazen. News from the Swamp... In the House of Commons, the vote on permanent normal trading relations for China is scheduled for the week of May 22nd. If the measure passes, the Reds, who persecute Christians, force abortions, suppress dissidents, and conduct a significant volume of arms trade with terrorist states like Iran and Libya, will become one of our largest trade partners.

[CTRL] Confusion in Manila, Advantage on the Battlefield
WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! Confusion in Manila, Advantage on the Battlefield Summary Philippine Vice President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo was set to meet with hostage-takers in the southern Philippines, despite objections by President Joseph Estrada. While most of the first set of hostages held by the extremist Abu Sayyaf have now been released, it appears that the group is very astutely playing on divisions within the government in Manila, as are leaders of other Muslim groups. The rebels are hoping that the current crisis can be used to alter the power structure in Manila. Analysis On May 3, extremist Abu Sayyaf group's spokesman, Abu Sabaya, contacted Philippine Vice President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo by telephone to discuss the release of Philippine hostages being held by the group on the southern island of Basilan. The group offered to release the hostages being held on Basilan to Arroyo so that negotiations can focus next on a group of foreign hostages on the southern island of Jolo. Macapagal-Arroyo's participation in the negotiations was abruptly cut short by Estrada. Press Secretary Ronaldo Puno told reporters that Macapagal-Arroyo had permission to talk to Abu Sayyaf and deliver messages to Estrada - but nothing more. A firefight between the military and hostage-takers has since led to the release of 15 captives on Basilan. And Macapagal-Arroyo's involvement became a "non issue," her spokesman, Bobby Capco, told Business World. ___ Would you like to see full text, photo and accompanying articles? http://www.stratfor.com/SERVICES/giu2000/050500.ASP ___ The hostage situation in the south appears to add stress to the relationship between the president and his vice president. For some time, Macapagal-Arroyo had adopted a low-profile role behind Estrada. But following a trip abroad in early April, she has recently become more vocal, calling on the government to assess whether it is adequately addressing the needs of the poor or just the powerful. Some of Estrada's party members are concerned that Arroyo is clandestinely working to bring down the president. Beleaguered by accusations of cronyism, tepid foreign investment and an escalating conflict in the south, Estrada faces a potential challenge from Macapagal-Arroyo. His popular vice president also happens to be from the opposition Lakas Party. Giving Macapagal- Arroyo a prominent role in any negotiations would only add to her popular support if she were able to accomplish an end to the standoff that Estrada - through the military - has been unable to achieve. Abu Sayyaf is not the only group using the hostilities to take advantage of the political instability in Manila. The established Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) broke a cease-fire with the government on April 30 after the military continued to mass forces around its base Camp Abubakar. MILF leaders have reportedly said that they are preparing to defend themselves against the government. ___ For more on the Philippines, see: http://www.stratfor.com/asia/countries/philippines/default.htm?sect ion=2.3 ___ Fighting on the southern island of Mindanao has recently spread through several provinces. Several elected officials from the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) have also charged that the Philippine military misled Estrada into maintaining a hard-line stand on the MILF and have called for a return to peace, according to ABS-CBN News. Estrada has also failed to fulfill the 1996 peace agreement with the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF), which runs the autonomous region. The rebels' charges reflect a larger fear on the part of their leadership: that the military is planning to trick Estrada into an all-out war in the southern Philippines, instead of observing a shaky peace agreement. Such a conflict could be followed by a coup, in which Estrada is declared unfit to lead the country out of the crisis. The MILF charges, aired several weeks ago, are clearly designed to heighten mistrust within the Philippine military and the president, weakening their effectiveness. The rebel tactic appears to be aimed at a political reality in Manila. The country's top two politicians are taking very different tacks in dealing with the fighting in the south. On May 4, Estrada traveled to North Luzon to launch several public works programs. He is also still planning to travel to China soon. Estrada's apparent nonchalance at the situation is matched by his advocacy of a military solution to unrest. Estrada has given the MILF a unilateral June deadline for peace; if not, it faces all-out war. He maintains that the only solution for Abu Sayyaf is elimination. In contrast,
[CTRL] Drudge: RUFF: JUST TELL 'EM YOU DON'T REMEMBER! (fwd)
X DRUDGE REPORT X FRIDAY MAY 5 2000 01:42:33 ET X WHITE HOUSE RUFF: JUST TELL 'EM YOU DON'T REMEMBER! Former White House counsel Charles Ruff used variants of "I don't Know, I don't remember, I don't' recall or I have no specific recollection..." 12 times within the first 30 minutes of questioning before a congressional committee investigating missing White House e-mails. "You don't know who you asked to conduct the search?" asked a seemingly incredulous committee chairman, Dan Burton, R-Ind. "I know a search was being done" by "one or more members of my staff," Ruff swore under oath. "If I knew who that was I would tell you who that was. But I do not recall." But would he tell? And can he recall? Or could Ruff just be playing a game? A June 19, 1977 WASHINGTON POST story by Bob Woodward may have revealed The Real Ruff. Woodward's story ["The Last Prosecutor: Special Watergate Force Is Going Out of Business"] interviewed the last Watergate special prosecutor, Charles Ruff. Ruff said he expected his work on Watergate to be questioned someday, saying "there are judgment calls that were made that people can legitimately question." Ruff told Woodward how it may all look different to future congressional investigators, and if called to testify someday at such an inquiry, Ruff said he knows just what to do. "I'd say, 'Gee, I just don't remember what happened back then', and they won't be able to indict me for perjury and that, maybe, that's the principal thing that I've learned in four yearsI just intend to rely on that failure of memory."

WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! (3) Are there any alternatives that are more cost-effective? Strictly speaking, there are no alternatives to the V-22 that meet all of the users' stated requirements. If the users were to relax the range and speed requirements, the Agusta-Westland EH101, Eurocopter NH-90 and Sikorsky S-92 could be considered as alternatives to the V-22. But none of these machines are simple or inexpensive either. Furthermore, the NH-90 and S-92 are still experimental. If any of them were equipped to the standard of the V-22 in the areas of survivability, night/adverse weather capability and NBC protection, their price would probably approach that of the V-22. Another option would be to rebuild yet again the USMC's and AFSOC's worn-out Vietnam-era helos. This also wouldn't be cheap, and after the money was spent, the military would be still have an unreliable and obsolete helo fleet. In summary, the V-22 Osprey is the best solution for our warfighters. == ARTICLE 9 America, Home of the Fee? - Military / Veterans Health Care Update Ed.: This article begins a series of recurring updates dedicated to military/veterans health care issues. We hope they will keep active, retiree and veteran communities apprised of ongoing national debates. This article also introduces our new contributing editor for health care issues -- R.M." Pete" Peterson, Jr., AUS, retired. By Pete Peterson, Contributing Editor For those of you who think the fight for our EARNED health care is not noticed by others, here are some interesting observations from outside our country. A WWII RAF Pilot observes that in Great Britain, military retirees and veterans are shown considerably more respect than in our country. Their pensions are sound and their medical care is paid-up. Their fellow countrymen and Members of Parliament are behind them. A WWII Wehrmacht soldier notes that a military retiree or veteran in today's Germany still commands respect, despite the darkness of that period of history, for they DID serve their country at great personal risk. Their retirements are secure and their medical needs are met without fee. In today's climate of we are all citizens of the world, it is ironic that those abroad are generally appalled by the treatment of military retirees and veterans in this country. As the RAF pilot puts it: America is the Home of the Fee. Yesterday's heroes seem to have turned into today's burden. When corresponding with both of these Veterans, one an ally and one a former foe, I received more genuine respect for service to my country than I get from my Government. But, that doesn't pay the medical bills. You know there is a breakdown in military health care when our Medal of Honor recipients are denied prescriptions at a Military Treatment Facility (MTF). It happened to Colonel George E. "Bud" Day, USAF, Retired, MOH, and former POW of the Hanoi Hilton at the Eglin AFB Pharmacy. Although he had regularly used Elgin in the past, this time he was told the medication is no longer on the authorized DOD formulary. Those of us of lower rank and status always expect a hassle over our health care with TRICARE, but this incident speaks volumes about the decline of the military health care system. We, active and retired alike, can no longer tolerate such disrespect for one of our own at a time that congressmen and senators are free to use the MTFs at their personal convenience, while retirees are denied access to these same facilities We also know that installation commanders are now allowed to designate some of the higher cost medications still on the DOD formulary to be filled for "active duty only." Meanwhile, our 'youngsters' on active duty continue to run up other medical bills on their family's care and some face indebtedness they may never overcome. Active Duty troops, and their families, should not have to pay a penny for their medical care, but they do. With Colonel Day, they picked the wrong warrior to say no to this time. He' s also a lawyer and heads up the class action lawsuit for over-65 military retirees currently under appeal in Federal Court, Washington, D.C. For those of you looking for a way to express your thoughts on healthcare, be in the Washington, D.C. on 11 May and show up for the "Muster." Military retirees from all over the country will gather in the Reflecting Pool Area, directly in front of the lower west side of the U.S. Capitol Building. Festivities and dissent over their health care starts at 0800 and should last until 1100. Following, there will be "sidewalk demonstrations" for the media. It won't be Earth Day, but it should be fun. Ask your congressman or senator to drop by

WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! ARTICLE 5 ~~~ A real Leader - Thoughts about Gunfighter Emerson ~~~ Ed.: A retired Non Com tells us what makes a good senior leader in response to Hack's recent article. Good leaders make a unit while bad leaders wreck it in no time! By Dave Nutter I just read your article in the Newsletter. My very first assignment as a 17 year-old private was the 1-72 Armor of the 1st Brigade of the 2d Division in 1974. Emerson was the Division Commander. He set high standards, took care of the troops, trained us to accomplish our mission and never lost touch. It was not unusual to go into a bar on the strip and find him in there having a beer. I can even remember signing out on pass at the same time his jeep rolled into the company area. He got out with my best friend (who was absolutely stumbling drunk) asked where this soldier's bunk was, took him up, put him in it and left. The only way the CO and First Shirt heard about this was from the CQ. Nothing official ever came down. What are the chances of that happening now? There was absolutely nothing politically correct about him and his soldiers loved him! As Viet Nam drew down he was in command of the Army's most forward deployed unit that was in imminent danger every minute of every day and he never tolerated poor leaders. One of the things I loved about being stationed in Korea was the further north you went, the less BS you had to put up with. It was as serious as it could get without actually having the two armies shooting at each other. I sure hope our military finds some more of Emerson's type for the next conflict, or we may experience a very rude awakening for our country! === ARTICLE 6 "And So We Remember Vietnam (Cong Hoa) " Ed.: 25 years after the end of the Vietnam War, few veterans remain on active duty. Here are the thoughts of a still serving senior Non-Commissioned Officer *** By Master Sergeant Jeffrey D. Gallant 525 M.I. Group, APO, SF, 96222 Republic of Vietnam, 24 April 1969 - 01 July 1971. On 30 April 1975, the events, people and places that were my, and many others experience in Vietnam, were relegated to a past that, in terms of the final outcome, never existed. It was all for nothing. In terms of those we knew, the friends and relatives we lost or left there, in terms of those who have since, and will again be asked to finish what we were not allowed to, this is the final tragedy of Vietnam. A small country, with those people who we thought were worth saving, is gone! A nation died, alone, with only a small bang, and a whimper that haunts some of us still, more than can be entwined in my words on this page. A nation died, and was mourned by too few, but how and why it happened is at "ground zero" on the stage of shame and the cause of anguish, among us who served, really cared, and tried to save this small country. Each person has his or her own opinion as to why the end came as it did. Some people say that it was underestimation of the North Vietnamese, overestimation of the South Vietnamese, or a little of both. Some still say that it really was just a civil war, won by heroic freedom-loving rebels. Some decry the political restraint placed on the American military force, that they believe could have won, if allowed to make its own battlefield decisions. Some blame that same military force directly. An easy answer is the media's grand pronouncement of the popular disenchantment and lack of will on the part of America to see this war through. Some citizens of this nation still rejoice at the outcome, victory for their friends. Some simply do not care. Some want to forget that it ever happened. We must never allow them to do that! But whatever you believe, those of us who fought in the swamps, hills, jungles, escarpments, caves, and also in the skies of Southeast Asia, with death dancing around us, did so in the finest tradition of the American Fighting Man. There was little personal glory in my Vietnam War, and we all knew it, with what was going on back home. While I was on leave after my first full tour, exactly thirty years ago today, my hometown, Framingham, Massachusetts, dedicated a flagpole in the town square to Vietnam Veterans. Counting me, there were eleven people in attendance on a beautiful spring morning. I remember being disbelieving of the fact that I was still alive after waking up on a damp morning, in the highlands, within view of the border of Laos. I was stunned with my apparent immortality, at the age of nineteen. In a thankless effort we carried the war to the enemy

Zimmermann President SFTT [EMAIL PROTECTED] === ARTICLE 1 - Defending America Better Luck next Time ~ By David Hackworth The 25th anniversary of the fall of South Vietnam was like a slow-moving, thousand-mile-long funeral procession. The media relentlessly barraged us with worn memories. The tube, magazines and newspapers picked at the scars of the war until they got down to the bloodless bone. Rarely was anything substantial covered. The tempo picked up after the Cuban kid, perhaps the last tragic captive of the Cold War, was returned to his Commie dad and as we drew closer to the anniversary of the day the Soviet tanks manned by North Viets wheezed and rattled their way into Saigon. For the past couple of weeks the war's been dissected, resected and intersected. Once again the guilty were nailed to the cross and the flawed strategies rehashed. The Black Wall was shot from every TV angle, along with the mourners gathered there -- the amateurs with their cameras and the Old Guard professionals dressed in their standard, now-very-tired camouflage gear and beribboned hats. Strangely, in all this dark deliberation, precious little has been said about the grunts who fought in Vietnam. You remember them, the kids who were sent there to be cannon fodder, so badly trained and with hardly a clue about the purpose of the conflict. You know, the 18- and 19-year-olds who toted the Black Stick, the M-16 rifle, the worst infantry weapon ever placed in an American soldier's hands. A favorite, of course, of the racketeers in Washington who I'm sure bought Colt Industries low and sold high oh-so patriotically. The average Viet vet's age today is 52. Many still carry a hangover from "The Vietnam Experience." When they got home, their dads from the "Greatest Generation"-- who'd won The Big War -- called them slackers who didn't

[CTRL] Gore REALLY DID Invent The Internet! (fwd)
From: Lucianne.com. [First, the original article..note that this is the ultimate spin, or proof you can spin an outright lie. Seems the liberals of the current admin/WH have clearly brought the science of spin to a new high as an art form...clearly THE state-of-the-art masters at it. Sorry, I just gotta ask how any responsible news publication can actually publish this crap?" --MS] Gore Invented Internet? Hey, He's Got a Case by Lars Erik Nelson http://www.nydailynews.com/2000-05-05/News_and_Views/Opinion/a-65600.asp Miffed at the latest attack on him from Vice President Gore, George W. Bush accuses the vice president of stretching the truth. "He's the man who said he invented the Internet," Bush gibed, echoing a common joke at Gore's expense. Now let's kill the joke. A) Gore did not claim to have invented the Internet. In an interview with Wolf Blitzer in March 1999, Gore said: "During my service in the U.S. Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet." B) This claim is perfectly true. In March 1986, when computers were still something found mostly in laboratories, Gore sponsored the Supercomputer Network Study Act to link the nation's supercomputers into a single system. This was his vision: "Libraries, rural schools, minority institutions and vocational education programs will have access to the same national resources databases, supercomputers, accelerators as more affluent and better-known institutions." Three years later, after noticing that France was making strides with its Minitel home-computer network, Gore introduced the National High Performance Computer Technology Act. One of its aims was to "establish a high-capacity national research and education computer network." His bill directed that the Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, which had created the forerunner of the Internet, "shall ensure that unclassified computer technology research is readily available to American industry." In testimony to a House committee, Gore said: "I genuinely believe that the creation of this nationwide network ... will create an environment where work stations are common in homes and even small businesses." At the time, even computer professionals were jeering at the notion of personal computers. They would be a waste of money, costly machines for balancing checkbooks or storing recipes. Gore saw them as terminals in a future national network of knowledge. One of Gore's Republican colleagues, Sen. Slade Gorton of Washington, credited him at the time for introducing a bill that would "create [note that word] a high-capacity national research and education network to link up supercomputers and databases around the country." In 1991, Gore reintroduced his bill to provide funding for development of a national computer network. He said: "Today, most students using computer networks are studying science and engineering, but there are more and more applications in other fields, too. Economists, historians and literature majors are all discovering the power of networking. In the future, I think we will see computers and networks used to teach every subject from kindergarten through grade school." Gore found a supporter: President George Bush, father of George W. He signed Gore's bill on Dec. 9, 1991, predicting that this new technology "offers the potential to transform radically the way in which all Americans will work, learn and communicate in the future. It holds the promise of changing society as much as the other great inventions of the 20th century, including the telephone, air travel, radio and TV." Does this documented record justify Gore's claim that during his service in Congress he took the initiative in creating the Internet as we know it today? Seems to me, he has a pretty good case. But don't expect Bush, who urges Gore to "stick to the facts," to drop his sneer. He knows that a lie is a powerful political weapon that can survive forever. His own father never managed to kill the myth that he had no idea what a supermarket checkout computer was. By the way, when he signed Gore's Internet bill, President Bush took credit for it himself. He said he had proposed it in his 1992 budget. Original Publication Date: 05/05/2000 - Now, a response from one of the readers... What utter nonsense. The Supercomputer Study Act provided money to link together SUPERCOMPUTERS (that cost tens of millions of dollars each) at universities and government research labs. The Internet was invented in the late 1960s. The real reason that the Internet took off is that: A.) Tim Berners-Lee (a research at the European Lab for Partical Physics) invented the World Wide Web (what you are using on l.com) B.) Mark Andreesen (a college student) created the Mosaic graphical web browser (which later became Netscape) C.) SPRY
[CTRL] OT: Here's your tip for the Kentucky Derby (fwd)
-- Forwarded message -- Date: Fri, 05 May 2000 15:36:51 -0400 From: ML/NJ [EMAIL PROTECTED] People looking for easy money might place a small wager on the Godolphin Racing entry (China Visit and Curule) in tomorrow's Kentucky Derby. The expected post-time odds suggested by the experts range from 20-1 to 50-1. At least one list member knows that most of the horses I select go off at less than 5-1, so it is quite unusual for me to select such a brace of steeds. Bottom line is that Godolphin is a very sharp stable from the United Arab Emirates. They have been very successful in Europe, and are now trying to win here using the same unconventional training methods that have worked for them in Europe. They spend lots of money on their horses, so they have lots of good horses; and they really want to win the Ky Derby so I'm guessing that they've sent the best of those good horses here. My own opinion of the US three year-old crop (the ones eligible for the Derby) is that they are way overrated, which improves Godolphin's chances of winning this year. There's a lot more to like about their entry beyond what I've said here. But remember ... 30-1 horses are risky recommendations. Proceed at your own risk.

From: http://www.msnbc.com/news/403350.asp?0a=2103430- FBI says it has Love virus suspect Computer bug troubles persist as tricky mutations make the rounds Toby Ayre, technical consultant for Internet service provider SKYInternet, explains how the Love Bug virus works at a news conference in Mandaluyong, Philippines Friday. By Bob Sullivan MSNBC May 5 U.S. investigators have told NBC News Pete Williams they have identified a suspect they believe is responsible for the ILOVEYOU virus. Were convinced, the virus attack originated in the Philippines, said one official, who added the suspect wont be identified until a search warrant is executed. Meanwhile, there are now five known variants of the bug, including one that tries to trick victims into opening an attachment by claiming its a bill for diamonds purchased at a special Mothers Day price. U.S. FEDERAL AGENTS, working in cooperation with local authorities, were led to the suspect by electronic evidence, NBCs Williams was told. The official, who requested anonymity, added the FBI is now seeking a search warrant and is waiting only for authority from Philippines judges before they serve the warrant. Meanwhile, anti-virus experts say computer admistrators around the world are contining to fight the Love Bug, which now comes in five flavors, including the more dangerous Mothers Day mutation. Weve seen the situation just get worse in Asia and Europe during Friday, said Mikko Hypponen, manager of anti-virus research at F-Secure Corp. With four new variants out after the original one, its getting more and more difficult for end users to know which e-mail to avoid. The latest variant might cause the most trouble. It attempts to prey on consumer fears of erroneous credit card charges and arrives with the subject line Mothers Day Order Confirmation. The body of the message then tells the potential victim: We have proceeded to charge your credit card for the amount of $326.92 for the mothers day diamond special. We have attached a detailed invoice to this email. Please print out the attachment and keep it in a safe place. Thanks Again and Have a Happy Mothers Day! [EMAIL PROTECTED] The attached file, mothersday.vbs, is very similar to the original ILOVEYOU virus but is considerably more destructive. It sets out to delete all .INI and .BAT files from all local and network drives. Removing such files could make it impossible to restart a victims computer. With only eight days to go until Mothers Day, this attack is quite credible, Hypponen said. Carey Nachenberg, chief virus researcher at Symantec, tells CNBC that 'Love Bug' copycat viruses are beginning to spread, and that computer networks are extremely vulnerable to future worms. A Manila Internet services provider, Supernet, said it was assisting in the investigation, adding that the virus appeared to have first spread from two of its e-mail addresses. The author of the virus used two e-mail addresses through Supernet [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED], Jose Carlotta, chief operating officer of parent company Access Net Inc, a Manila Internet company, told Reuters. Inside all versions of the love virus are the two Supernet e-mail addresses. Combined with information gleaned from Internet chat rooms, Carlotta said, the e-mails provided investigators with a solid lead, but no definitite information. The e-mails have been linked to prepaid Internet access accounts so it was not immediately possible to zero in on the owner, he added. Toby Ayre, a technical consultant for SkyInternet, another Philippine ISP, told reporters it appeared the same hacker had tried to break into their systems. In response, the company blacklisted the local Manila telephone number the intruder was using. We banned this particular person from our servers on April 1, Ayre said. He added that the hacker had used the same signature at SkyInternet as had been seen at Supernet. We have provided the NBI, the FBI, and Interpol with all of the audit trails for every transaction that involves this virus and theyre using that information, he added. STILL CIRCUMNAVIGATING THE GLOBE While authorities tried to track down the culprit, the ILOVEYOU virus continued to infect computers around the globe on Friday, though not at the rate of Thursdays rampage. The federally-funded CERT Coordination Center, a clearinghouse for U.S. computer crisis information, said it was still receiving reports of outbreaks. New variations of the worm were were also winging around the Internet, in some cases foiling anti-virus protection. A version of the virus named Luck started appearing Thursday afternoon, and other copycats have followed. One variant, called Susitikim (which in Lithuanian means: Lets meet), has a subject line that reads Susitikem shi vakara kavos puodukui. In Lithuanian, the
[CTRL] Judge refuses to dismiss Tripp wiretap case (fwd)
Updated 2:51 PM ET May 5, 2000 ELLICOTT CITY, Md. (Reuters) - A Maryland judge Friday refused to dismiss the criminal wiretap charges against Linda Tripp stemming from her role in the White House sex scandal that led to President Clinton's impeachment in 1998. But the judge decided that if Tripp is put on trial, former White House intern Monica Lewinsky should be allowed to testify in person about the pivotal question of whether she gave Tripp permission to tape record a telephone conversation in which Lewinsky told of her affair with Clinton. Tripp, a former White House secretary, was indicted July 30, 1999, on two counts of violating the Maryland wiretap law by secretly recording a Dec. 22, 1997, telephone conversation with Lewinsky from her home in Colombia, Maryland, and sharing the tape's contents with Newsweek magazine. In late 1997 Tripp spent hours taping telephone conversations with Lewinsky about the former intern's sexual affair with the president and turned the recordings over to Starr, setting off months of investigations that ended in Clinton's impeachment in the U.S. House of Representatives. Howard County Circuit Judge Diane Leasure decided Lewinsky's testimony to a grand jury investigating Tripp was not sufficient as evidence of whether Tripp had Lewinsky's permission to make the recording. The ruling may or may not set the stage for Tripp to go to trial in July as the only major figure in the scandal to face criminal proceedings. After nearly six months of testimony, arguments and legal wrangling, Leasure was asked to decide whether evidence compiled against Tripp by a special state prosecutor was tainted by the testimony she gave independent counsel Kenneth Starr under a grant of federal immunity. The judge, whose ruling set a precedent in Maryland law, could have granted a defense motion to dismiss the case outright, or stripped away individual pieces of evidence found to have been derived from the Starr investigation while allowing the remainder of the case to go to trial. "The appropriate remedy ... is the suppression of certain testimony," the judge said. "The testimony of Monica S. Lewinsky shall be and the same is hereby suppressed; provided, however, that she will be permitted to testify regarding the issue of consent." It is illegal in Maryland to violate the law knowingly by tape-recording conversations without the consent of all parties. If convicted, she could face five years in prison and $10,000 in fines on each count. Central to the case against her was testimony from her one-time friend, Lewinsky, the prosecution's key witness, who told the court at a December hearing that she recalled the Dec. 22 date of the recorded conversation because it was etched in her mind and not because Starr's office had given it to her, as Tripp's lawyers have charged. However Lewinsky's credibility as a witness came under question when she acknowledged leading state investigators to one of their state grand jury witnesses, Tripp confidant Kate Freidrich, after learning the woman's surname from Starr investigators. State prosecutors have maintained that they can prove Tripp made the tape on Dec. 22 while knowing that it would be illegal to do so without Lewinsky's permission. But if Lewinsky's testimony were stricken from the case wholesale, they could have difficulty showing that Tripp had no such permission. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Moscow's man in Washington ... (fwd)
[It's enough to make Armand Hammer proud. --MS] Russia praises candidate Gore on foreign policy Updated 12:21 PM ET May 5, 2000MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's Foreign Ministry praised the foreign policy of Vice-President and Democratic Party presidential candidate Al Gore Friday, saying his objectives tended to coincide with those of the Kremlin. A ministry statement said Gore had spoken of intensifying relations with Moscow and working jointly to tackle international problems in his first major foreign policy speech in Boston last week. "The vice-president especially stressed the importance of joint action within the world community of solving problems which are increasingly taking on a global character and threatening international security and stability," it said. "At issue here, for instance, are the fight against international terrorism, organized crime, drug trafficking and solving ecological problems. This approach is fully in tune with the Russian approach." In his address last week to the International Press Institute World Congress, Gore said U.S. policy had to address new global threats. He also pledged to continue helping Russia "make a transition to a market-based democracy." He suggested his Republican opponent, George W. Bush, was inexperienced in foreign policy and accused him of being mistakenly "stuck in a 'Cold War' mind set." The foreign ministry said Moscow was prepared to improve relations with Washington in all areas, saying a firm base had already been established in a 1998 meeting between then-Kremlin leader Boris Yeltsin and President Clinton. It said the issues raised in Gore's speech would occupy an important place in talks scheduled for Moscow early next month between Clinton and Vladimir Putin, due to be inaugurated as president this weekend. Relations between Russia and the United States hit a rough patch in the past year, with the Kremlin furious over NATO's aerial campaign against Yugoslavia and the United States critical of Moscow's military drive against Chechen separatists. Disputes have also emerged over disarmament. The Russian lower house of parliament has ratified the START-2 nuclear disarmament pact after seven years of delays. But Putin and other officials have rejected U.S. calls to amend the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile treaty to allow Washington to proceed with a national missile defense system against what it describes as "rogue countries" like North Korea. In an interview with Reuters last week, Gore said he was hopeful agreement could be reached with Russia on the ABM issue despite Moscow's objections. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] FBI Probes Espionage at Clinton White House
http://www.drudgereport.com/insight.htm INSIGHT MAGAZINE 5/5/00 **EXCLUSIVE** FBI Probes Espionage at Clinton White House A foreign spy service appears to have penetrated secret communications in the Clinton administration, which has discounted security and intelligence threats. By J. Michael Waller and Paul M. Rodriguez The FBI is probing an explosive foreign-espionage operation that could dwarf the other spy scandals plaguing the U.S. government. Insight has learned that FBI counterintelligence is tracking a daring operation to spy on high-level U.S. officials by hacking into supposedly secure telephone networks. The espionage was facilitated, federal officials say, by lax telephone-security procedures at the White House, State Department and other high-level government offices and by a Justice Department unwillingness to seek an indictment against a suspect. The espionage operation may have serious ramifications because the FBI has identified Israel as the culprit. It risks undermining U.S. public support for the Jewish state at a time Israel is seeking billions of tax dollars for the return of land to Syria. It certainly will add to perceptions that the Clinton-Gore administration is not serious about national security. Most important, it could further erode international confidence in the ability of the United States to keep secrets and effectively lead as the worlds only superpower. More than two dozen U.S. intelligence, counterintelligence, law-enforcement and other officials have told Insight that the FBI believes Israel has intercepted telephone and modem communications on some of the most sensitive lines of the U.S. government on an ongoing basis. The worst penetrations are believed to be in the State Department. But others say the supposedly secure telephone systems in the White House, Defense Department and Justice Department may have been compromised as well. The problem for FBI agents in the famed Division 5, however, isnt just what they have uncovered, which is substantial, but what they dont yet know, according to Insights sources interviewed during a year-long investigation by the magazine. Of special concern is how to confirm and deal with the potentially sweeping espionage penetration of key U.S. government telecommunications systems allowing foreign eavesdropping on calls to and from the White House, the National Security Council, or NSC, the Pentagon and the State Department. The directors of the FBI and the CIA have been kept informed of the ongoing counterintelligence operation, as have the president and top officials at the departments of Defense, State and Justice and the NSC. A heads up has been given to the House and Senate Intelligence Committees, but no government official would speak for the record. Its a huge security nightmare, says a senior U.S. official familiar with the super-secret counterintelligence operation. The implications are severe, confirms a second with direct knowledge. Were not even sure we know the extent of it, says a third high-ranking intelligence official. All I can tell you is that we think we know how it was done, this third intelligence executive tells Insight. That alone is serious enough, but its the unknown that has such deep consequences. A senior government official who would go no further than to admit awareness of the FBI probe, says: It is a politically sensitive matter. I cant comment on it beyond telling you that anything involving Israel on this particular matter is off-limits. Its that hot. It is very hot indeed. For nearly a year, FBI agents had been tracking an Israeli businessman working for a local phone company. The mans wife is alleged to be a Mossad officer under diplomatic cover at the Israeli Embassy in Washington. Mossad the Israeli intelligence service is known to station husband-and-wife teams abroad, but it was not known whether the husband is a full-fledged officer, an agent or something else. When federal agents made a search of his work area they found a list of the FBIs most sensitive telephone numbers, including the Bureaus black lines used for wiretapping. Some of the listed numbers were lines that FBI counterintelligence used to keep track of the suspected Israeli spy operation. The hunted were tracking the hunters. It was a shock, says an intelligence professional familiar with the FBI phone list. It called into question the entire operation. We had been compromised. But for how long? This discovery by Division 5 should have come as no surprise, given what its agents had been tracking for many months. But the FBI discovered enough information to make it believe that, somehow, the highest levels of the State Department were compromised, as well as the White House and the NSC. According to Insights sources with direct knowledge, other secure government telephone systems and/or phones to which government officials called also appear to have been compromised. The tip-off
[CTRL] AP: FBI found no evidence Israeli spies penetrated White House phones
From: http://abcnews.go.com/wire/Politics/ap2505_1407.html ABCNEWS WIRE:05/05/2000 19:31:00 ET FBI found no evidence Israeli spies penetrated White House phones WASHINGTON (AP) _ The FBI investigated an allegation that Israeli spies had penetrated the White House and other government telephone systems, but more than a year of extensive work found no evidence of any breach, two senior federal law enforcement officials said Friday. The two officials, who requested anonymity, said the FBI had identified no one to arrest during its investigation. One said the investigation is now inactive. "There was extensive investigation, and there are just no facts to support the allegation," one of the officials said. This official said the investigation had "100 percent complete support from the Justice Department and every other government agency" that would be needed to check such an allegation. The probe is technically not closed, this official said. But it was described as being in the "pending inactive state because the allegation is so serious and in case something develops." At the White House, a senior official said the White House had no indication that its phone system was compromised. Mark Regec, a spokesman for the Israeli Embassy said, "I don't listen even to the phone conversations of my wife." He called the allegation outrageous and said, "Israel does not spy on the United States." A former civilian intelligence analyst for the U.S. Navy, Jonathan Pollard, was convicted during the 1980s of extensive spying for Israel. Israel has tried unsuccessfully since then to have him pardoned by the U.S. president. On Capitol Hill, Republican sources said the allegation centered on a telecommunications contractor.

[CTRL] New Book by Israeli Researcher, Barry Chamish
From: Barry Chamish Subject: Giants Hello, I am delighted to inform you that my first book on the Israeli UFO wave of the past twelve years has been published by Book World of Sun City, Arizona. It is called Return Of The Giants and as the title says, the book details the numerous and highly documented encounters with giant beings associated with the Israeli UFO sightings and the formations they left on the ground. Two major American networks will be broadcasting my findings soon. On April 27, the Fox Network will broadcast a Kiviat Production about the world's most proven UFO video clips. You will see me at length in the segment on Israel. And look at your Discovery Channel schedule for a Hamilton Brown production called Giants. It will be broadcast any day now and this fine documentary examines my work on giant sightings in detail. At long last, my patient collection of evidence is being rewarded by the major networks and a fine book publisher. Book World informs me that Return Of The Giants will be released to the stores in early May and orders are being accepted now. For those who want to phone in an order and use a credit card: 1-888-262-7090. They only take orders on that number. But inquiries are welcome at 480-895-7995 or by writing [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hope you enjoy the book.
