[CTRL] Is a headless human possible?
Is a headless human possible?September 18 2000 at 09:45AMPeople can obviously live with missing arms, legs, kidney, lung, gall bladder, eyes, ears, nose, and much more. But wouldn't a headless human be impossible? If you think so, you haven't been tracking the breathtaking breakthroughs of genetic engineering, where cloning of Dolly the sheep and creation of a headless frog embryo prompted Dr Patrick Dixon, author of The Genetic Revolution, to forecast cloned colonies of headless humans kept as spare part factories in the future. Given its technical feasibility, there will be enormous economic pressurefor this to happen, Dixon told the British Press Association. It willprobably occur in countries where there is little or no gene legislation.Already the world has "Miracle Mike", the headless chicken of the 1940s, as an example. Earmarked for supper, the Colorado rooster met a bizarre fate when a poorly aimed hatchet took off his head but left neck and brain stem intact - enough to keep Mike's body strutting about for a couple of years, fed via an eyedropper through the open hole of his oesophagus. Life magazine ran a photo of him amidst his barnyard brethren, captioned:"Chickens do not avoid Mike who, however, has shown no tendency to mate."http://www.iol.co.za/html/frame_news.php?click_id=187art_id=iol969263138160S365
Re: [CTRL] Weird Presidential Coincidentials?
-Caveat Lector- Ah but see now this is typical propaganda - Landers like a Jean Dixon lays the seeds of destruction - poor Gore, we will have a Zionist for President no doubt if Gore is elected. Landers is a political propagandist and a Zionistnot safe for a good Christian boy to run for President this year... Remember JFK.over and over and over, the asrologers marked him for murder..Jean Dixon was on the mob's payroll and the newspapers had given her "divine" statusa real Rose of Washington Square who got tripped up by J. Edgar. So Ann Landers - what else would you expect - start the talk going - you see one could say she was part of the old Meyer Lansky mob - they get some "nut" to fulfill prophecies by first setting up the target for the kill. Then when Lieberman is President - well, you see how it goesJFK was toldl not to run, that he would be killed - he ran, and he was killed.with his death Camelot became garbage and dog patch - and you see the enemy with is making a Sodom and Gomorrah out of the United States.then comes the punishment for being so badsay like Klebold and Harris punished the little Christians in Littleton? Judgment Day? So the conspirators use their little bible calendar and it is not safe for a Catholic or a Protestant to run for President and win - the groundwork is being laid, for the kill. Save the Evergreen. Let Joe Lieberman go run in Israel..it is reported he holds dual citizenship. Such holy pepole these Israelies. Remember the USS Liberty. A.

-Caveat Lector- Well Justine, the ADL and Morris Dees of this Southern Poverty Law Stricken Society (worth abot 70 million dollars - and they took a vow of poverty,no doubt) - but through their efforts Christians and Moslems have been set for extermination The Great Farrakhan took on the Masons and the guy has a sense of humor - and the Christians, well they are just targets now for FBIfor Louis Freeh after meeting with Putin, former head of KGB came home so impressed as did Madeline Albright that the immediately put Christians and Moslems on hit list. They awaited the millenium of their own creation that never materialized.first of all a holocaust occurred at Littleton - but this is to be erased from our minds - blotted out of the books..and little Buford who took a taxi back to his FBI - obvious plant and he left right winged literature for capture also. It is the oil they all want - this particular movement, and they are guilty of a theft of a nation i the making. Only thing that saves the Arab world from destruction..according to this Shiek my sister worked with as Int. Trade Rep - those oil fields and mined and wired and they will blow them to hell and back if aliens attempt to take over. I like Farrakhan for he recogizes the needs of his people - he does not want them downed with CIA/Mafia drugs - Castro did one good thing, he kicked Meyer Lansky and his assassins out of Cuba and made orphanages of the hotels and gambling houses from which the mob thrived. So Farrakhan tries to teach his followers not to fall in carefully laid traps.strange though, all these moslem papers I have from 70 period, hate the Pope - nothing anti Jewish - all hate the Pope and Christian holidays..wonder who really backs the New York Moslems? Like who organized first NAACP? So to each his own, and long ago I took my stand. So Albright goes to Putin for permission for the United States of America to defend its shores - wondr what Constitution she follows? Russian? Israelie?All Isralies are armed and dangrous but they emasculate Amrican Males - they think? Black Panthers and Israelies all carry AK's and so did Klebold and Harris - but boy try to carry one to the local super market over here? Who is kidding who?

[CTRL] NYP: HILL RUN HATCHED DURING BILL'S TRIAL: BOOK (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- New York Post-September 19, 2000 HILL RUN HATCHED DURING BILL'S TRIAL: BOOK By VINCENT MORRIS WASHINGTON - Hillary Clinton's secret plan to move to New York and run for Senate was hatched in the middle of her husband's impeachment trial, according to a new book. She spent four hours at the White House with the president's chief of staff, Harold Ickes, on Feb. 12, 1999, poring over demographics and ignoring the president when he walked in and began to talk about his impeachment woes. The book says the president sat at a table with Hillary and Ickes, who were eating lunch and talking New York politics, and tried to join the conversation by mentioning his strong showing in Herkimer County in the 1992 and 1996 election. Peter Baker's book "The Breach," published yesterday, also reveals how strongly Ickes pushed for Clinton's resignation during the impeachment crisis. It says Ickes tried to line up senior Democrats in Congress, plus influential White House friends like union leaders, and then met with AFL-CIO President John Sweeney to push the idea of a presidential resignation, the book says. "Let's wait and see, Harold," Sweeney is quoted as saying, when the two men dined at the Washington Hilton Hotel. "Let's see how this unfolds." Baker, a Washington Post writer, was a leading Sexgate reporter. At least one of the people mentioned in his impeachment book - ex-Republican Rep. Bob Livingston of Louisiana - is disputing its charge that he once wavered in the drive to impeach Clinton. Livingston, now a lobbyist, wrestled over impeaching Clinton and came around to the idea after learning about allegations from Juanita Broaddrick that Clinton raped her in 1978, the book says. "It's not true. [Livingston] never wavered for a moment," former Livingston press secretary Mark Corallo told The Post yesterday. Among other revelations, the book says: * Sexgate prober Kenneth Starr investigated 21 women linked to Clinton. * Hillary Clinton shot down a plan to avoid impeachment by letting the president stay in office but strip him of his pension for five years - mainly because she was the main breadwinner and didn't want to support him. = 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] CNS: Bush Wins Endorsement of Chicago F.O.P.
-Caveat Lector- [I wonder how much publicity this story will receive from the Trillion Dollar Propaganda machine?] Bush Wins Endorsement of Chicago F.O.P. By Tressa Pankovits CNS Correspondent September 19, 2000 Chicago (CNSNews.com) - Texas Gov. George W. Bush accepted an important union endorsement Monday night, and some say he can thank Chicago-style politics for the honor. The Chicago Fraternal Order of Police broke with tradition and threw its support to the Republican presidential nominee, in what many officers called a deliberate a jab at Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley, brother of Al Gore's campaign manager. The 17,000-member police union has been working without a contract with city hall for nearly a year and a half. Bush accepted the nomination, saying if he's elected, he plans to usher in "the responsibility era." "I believe in tough love," Bush said. "If you break the law, you will be held accountable." In an apparent dig at President Clinton, Bush declared that he will set the tone for the responsibility era, by serving the "highest office in the land" with dignity and honor. Bush did not discuss his support for concealed weapons laws, an issue rejected by some officers who never know when they'll face the business end of a gun. But one Chicago beat cop, who was shot and paralyzed on October 16, 1996, indicated that the violence done to him will not undermine his support for Bush. Officer Jim Mullins, speaking laboriously in between spurts of oxygen from his ventilator, said he supports the Texas Governor because of his "strict enforcement of gun laws - so that these criminals quit getting off so lightly." Bush, kneeling by Officer Mullins' wheelchair, kissed the policeman on the forehead after receiving Mullins' endorsement. When asked if he worries that Bush's record of supporting National Rifle Association measures in Texas could ultimately lead to a federal concealed-carry law and more guns on the street in Illinois, F.O.P. President Bill Nolan shrugged and said, "He may, or he may not, we don't feel it's that big of an issue." Bomb and arson detective Sy Komorowski echoed that sentiment, saying, "More gun laws aren't going to solve anything. Enforcement of the existing laws is what's going to take care of things." Nolan denied the union's endorsement of Bush comes in retaliation for the lagging contract negotiations. The F.O.P is particularly upset about a very unpopular demand the city has added to the proposed contract: mandatory retirement at age 63. Officers who will be forced out before reaching the twenty-year pension mark are fighting this provision especially hard. Lt. Joe Fitzsimmons said a vote for Al Gore is a vote for Mayor Richard Daley. Fitzsimmons noted the lieutenants' union originally endorsed Gore, but it is switching its vote to Bush because Gore "abandoned" them, after promising to intervene in negotiations. "Benefits, pay, working conditions -- these are bread and butter issues for the union. Where Bush stands on gun control is irrelevant to us at this level," Fitzsimmons said. Bush did not comment on the negotiations, and his Illinois Campaign Chairman, Gov. George Ryan, told the local media that voters will support Bush for his record, not as a way to slight the mayor. = 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.

Smart man told me that once - the enemy within who walks and talks as you do but in secret is like a Henry Kissinger, KGB Agent code name Bor. A. Saba Absolutely. There is no more need for "debate" with those under the influence of satanic forces, those guilt-ridden liberals who don't even know their own minds, those straights who act as apologists for the sodomites and help them push their homosexual agenda, under the guise of "tolerance". Conscript parents of sodomites, brain- wash them into politikal korrektness and get them on PBS talking, writing articles. What could be more absurd than a straight person "helping" the militant homosexual agenda? Straights under the guise of "religion" too, helping the sodomites to call it "good" to heckle and boo the boys of the BSA (what ever happened to all the "to do" over the "children"? Do sodomites ummm "care" about these boys when their own agenda is at stake? Does it look like it?). And helping the sodomites to call it "good" that sodomite propaganda and brain-washing has infiltrated the kindergarten and elementary sckools of Amerika. And sodomites big thing in life is "Mentoring". Wouldn't they *love* to be in the position of... Those change agents and facilitators trained by the GLSEN and other groups, backed by Marxist, Leninist, and Socialist thought, and behind them Nazi tactics, working on those guilt-ridden liberal fools. Soft Christians trying to live by Jesus' words, "loving the sinner but hating the sin". Meanwhile, being double-minded and konfused, the enemy enters their schools and is after their boy scouts. Farrakhan has eyes to see and is teaching his people very well the nature of racism. And they rise up to the challenge, even with AK-47s. Farrakhan teaches well the nature of things. Pat Robertson helps to speak for almost long-forgotten morality. Laura Schlessinger too. And those poor outraged rabbis having a fit that sodomites are in their holocaust museum. Christians know the beauty of their weapons. It's spiritual warfare and it's time to dust them off and look at them once again, get the feel of them, admire them Slow train coming down the track... And it's spiritual warfare, flesh and blood breaking down. You either got faith or you got unbelief -- and there is NO Neutral Ground.

We have a huge Asian population on our West Coast, and there is now a thriving trade where horrible captains of boats cram people in like sardines, charging them huge sums of money, and then dumping them either in the water off the coast, where some drown, or on the coast. The West Coast of Canada, (British Columbia) around the Vancouver area, has a temperate climate, somewhat similar to Ireland. In any event, the people smuggling operations turned into a huge nightmare this summer. And it is not just on the West Coast either. People from all over the world want to move here, and do.

I began posting on this subject because I was tired of posters being shouted down. No, you seek to control and censor the list along the lines of your own prejudices. You see, the list wa so much better when the exchange of information was free-flowing and people did not jump to conclusions and attack posters personally and liea bout what they said. Then stop doing it. BTW, I've been on this list for years, compared to your few weeks (at least under your current guise)...so you are hardly the person to lecture about how much 'better' the list used to be... June posts about my "hew and cry" when in fact it is probably Aleisha's to whom she is referring. One and the same. And under your 'Amelia' guise you HAVE whined long and loud about homosexuals... Does every poster have to endorse and believe in every posts now? No, but anyone sending an article to the list with which they don't agree should clearly label it as such. Anyone who consistently sends articles to the list with which they don't agree and who does NOT clearly mention that it is "FYI, not necessarily endorsed by sender" is just playing mind games with the list, and obviously intent on a campaign to disrupt the list. If you post something positive about Cuba, will that mean you are a communist? Of course it doesn't, but it DOES imply that the poster agrees with the country on whatever is being discussed in the article. If the person sending it does not, then they should clearly state that. And if they don't clarify their stance, then they shouldn't take high umbrage when readers think that the sender agrees with the sentiments within the article. But now that I have seen the manner in which my attempts to restore some semblance of civility and fair play have been met, Ha! More dissembling. You seek to control and censor the list under the guise of your Miss Manners act. BTW, I've been on this list for years, compared to your few weeks (at least under your current guise); so you are hardly the one to pontificate about 'restoring' the list to anything... But if you are sincere in your wish to 'restore some semblance of civility and fair play', then stop sending your disinformation posts; those like you who stir the pot to see what boils should not complain when you get burned in the process. I have nothing further to say to the list as a whole on this worn out subject.--unless I am further attacked on list. Then we can resign ourselves to the fact that you will continue to post your whining rants, as you feel that any disagreement with you is a personal attack. And it is interesting that you and your subs feel free to attack ME with aplomb at every opportunity, yet work yourselves into a tizzy every time someone dares to point out the numerous instances of your mistakes and hypocrisy.

Interesting, that when I HAVE sent articles to the list in the last week or so, you ignore them... So what exactly would you like done to Aleisha, an older woman from the past generation, stating her opinion? Silence her? Lord, yes! You claim _I_ post so little, yet all the Aleisha subpersonality posts are innane rambling rants, with absolutely NO documentation to substantiate the wild claims it makes.

[CTRL] Fw: Can't He Ever Tell the Truth
-Caveat Lector- Sent: Wednesday, September 20, 2000 8:01 AM Subject: FW: Can't He Ever Tell the Truth Good grief. Nothing this guy won't say. Aides concede Gore made up story By Dave Boyer and Sean Scully THE WASHINGTON TIMES Vice President Al Gore's indignant tale of a prescription drug costing more for his mother-in-law than for his dog came back to bite him yesterday when aides said the story was made up Mr. Gore, who told the anecdote in Florida to illustrate the need for his $253 billion drug plan for seniors, fabricated the cost of the drug itself, the comparative doses for his pet and for Tipper's mom, and his family's bills for them. In fact, Gore aides yesterday could not say whether the candidate's mother-in-law, Margaret Ann Aitcheson, pays for the arthritis medication Lodine out of her own pocket or if the cost is covered by insurance. A spokesman for Republican presidential nominee George W. Bush said the episode was only the latest example of Mr. Gore's "troubling pattern of embellishing and exaggerating his plans and personal experiences." The vice president has exaggerated his role in the creation of Internet and claimed he and wife Tipper were the inspiration for the Erich Segal novel "Love Story." "This certainly underscores the fact that the vice president will say anything to get elected," said Bush spokesman Karen Hughes. A Gore spokesman, Jano Cabrera, responded, "The only one who's inventing facts here are the Bush campaign.The facts are that Miss Aitcheson is prescribed Lodine." But other details that Mr. Gore presented as facts on Aug. 28 in Tallahassee are clearly wrong. Mr. Gore said he pays $37.80 per month for Shiloh, his 14-year-old black Labrador retriever, to take Etogesic, the animal version of Lodine. He said his mother-in-law's monthly bill is $108. At the time, Mr. Gore said of his family's predicament: "That's pretty bad when you have got to pretend to be a dog or a cat to get a price break." However, Gore aides acknowledged yesterday that those figures are not the actual costs for Mr. Gore's family. They were borrowed instead from a House Democratic study on rising drug prices. Mr. Cabrera could not say yesterday what the actual costs are for either the dog or Mrs. Aitcheson. "I'm not sure exactly what levels she takes or Shiloh takes," he said. And Mr. Gore's example wrongly assumed that both pet and human were taking the same dosage, which veterinarians say would cause serious digestive problems in a dog. Further, Mr. Gore misused the prices from the Democratic report because they represent the price to wholesalers, not the retail cost of the brand-name drug. Mr. Cabrera presented that inaccuracy yesterday as a positive for his boss. "Keep in mind they're paying retail costs, so [the disparity] is going to be only higher," he said. But asked whether Mr. Gore's mother-in-law has insurance or pays out of pocket, Mr. Cabrera said, "I'll have to look into that." Another misleading feature of Mr. Gore's story, first reported by the Boston Globe, is that 85 percent of the people who receive the medication take a generic version rather than the more costly brand-name Lodine. The Florida pharmacist who hosted a campaign event for Mr. Gore last month said most of his customers are too poor to receive the drug prescribed for the vice president's mother-in-law. "Most of our customers are on Medicaid, and we have to give them the generic," said Wilmoth Baker of Baker's Pharmacy in Tallahassee. "I just took [the anecdote] as political rhetoric." Lodine costs about four times as much as its generic counterpart. A typical month's supply of the generic version for humans costs about $40, while the brand name costs about $160. Mr. Gore's basic premise is correct - prescription drugs in general do cost more for humans than for pets. But a spokesman for the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PRMA) said yesterday that aspect should not be surprising because federal law requires rigorous human clinical trials before a drug is declared safe for use. "Common sense would tell you that developing a drug for a person is far more costly than developing it for a dog," said Jackie Cottrell. "This whole comparison is making us a little crazy." The PRMA said it takes 12 to 15 years and about $500 million on average to develop a safe and effective drug for humans. The Animal Health Institute estimates that the average animal-only drug requires $20 million of research and development. Mrs. Hughes said Mr. Gore's mistake went beyond the simple mispronunciations by Mr. Bush that the vice president's campaign has delighted in reporting to the media. "This case is a direct misstatement of fact, which I think is far more serious," she told reporters aboard Mr. Bush's campaign plane. Mr. Gore's announcement of his prescription drug plan in Florida, one week before Mr. Bush proposed his own plan, is

-Caveat Lector- June, I don't have the exact date, but I have been on this list for almost 4 years. Are you implying I have multiple personality disorder? I have always and only posted under my own name. I have used one other address akeyorkie@webtv some three years ago. This is a completely false statement. Again, this is very telling about your own tactics. Sex education is NOT about telling children your own sexual orientation and experiences. the fact that you think it is downright scary. If you are doing such a thing, it is sexual abuse and you should get help immediately. Again, I am not Aleut. It is NOT required that a poster label an article as to whether it contains theri personal beliefs or not. That is none of your business unless the poster chooses to share that. As for Miss Manners, well, your lack of civility speaks for itself. My "official position" is that I am going to be on the lookout for newcomers while Kris does his symposium and if you have a problem with that, you take it up with Kris. I will help him in any way I can because I appreciate the wealth of information he has posted and the fact that this list exists. So once again you have posted complete misinformation about me. I think you should apologize for this latest lie that I have only been on the list for a few weeks. You do know what an apology is, don't you? But I now wonder if you know the truth from a lie.

This prompted your fellow homophobes to decry this 'attack' on the BSA. Any private group wishing to use a public facility after regular school hours is expected to pay a fee, to help cover the costs of keeping janitorial crew on site to clean and lock up afterwards, the cost of electricity and heating, etc. If the BSA wishes to continue to utilize these sites for their meeting, let them pay a fee like everyone else.

[CTRL] Al Martin Raw: Secrets of Iran-Contra
-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.almartinraw.com/ Click Here: A HREF="http://www.almartinraw.com/"Al Martin Raw: Secrets of Iran-Contra/A - Government Insider Al Martin Tells a Story of True Conspiracy WHAT IF a criminal cabal, a de facto white-collar crime syndicate, took over the US Government and used its systems and operations for its own profit? According to former government operative whistleblower Al Martin, this is exactly what happened. Al Martin is the Man Who Knows Too Much. A self-described fourth level player of Iran Contra, Martin has first hand knowledge of the dirty deals, high-level scams, frauds, and treasonous activities of the US Shadow Government. Al Martin's new electronic book-manuscript called "The Conspirators: Secrets of an Iran Contra Insider" is a true crime story that's too hot for mainstream media. It's a shocking expose' of Iran Contra scandals and it's totally uncensored. This book is a hidden history of American corruption in the 1980s. And 1990s. Even until the present day. His eye-witness accounts include first-hand knowledge of US Government drug trafficking, illegal weapons deals, as well as wholesale fraud by government perps -- securities fraud, real estate fraud, and insurance fraud. Because of these criminal-government schemes, losses for taxpayers are in the hundreds of billions of dollars. And growing. When George Bush, Bill Casey and Oliver North initiated their plan of State-sanctioned fraud and drug smuggling, they envisioned using 500 men to raise $35 billion. When Iran Contra finally fell apart, they had ended up using 5,000 operatives and making $350 billion. And who is Al Martin? After Al Martin retired as a Lt. Commander from the US Naval Reserves, his life went into the fast lane as a black ops specialist. His first intelligence assignment was in Peru, then he was tapped for a CIA-sanctioned operation smuggling American Express cards into Argentina in 1979. After that he met US Government-sponsored con man Lawrence Richard Hamil, a Department of Defense shadow player, who taught him the ropes of profitable covert operations. In 1984, Martin began marketing Hamil's "deals" through his Florida based Southeast Resources, Inc. At a meeting with General Richard V. Secord and Hamil, Martin was briefed about Iran Contra operations and allowed to view voluminous CIA white papers concerning Operation Black Eagle, the code-name for the Bush-Casey-North program involving US Government-sanctioned narcotics trafficking, illicit weapons deals and wholesale fraud.

[CTRL] Psychology of Conspiracy Theories - CFP
-Caveat Lector- Who is kidding who? This country is being set for the kill by a handful of evil pepole - evil is, as evil does and by their fruits, you shall know them - as they say it is not the snake in the open but the one in the grass that is deadly. Smart man told me that once - the enemy within who walks and talks as you do but in secret is like a Henry Kissinger, KGB Agent code name Bor. A. Saba Absolutely. There is no more need for "debate" with those under the influence of satanic forces, those guilt-ridden liberals who don't even know their own minds, those straights who act as apologists for the sodomites and help them push their homosexual agenda, under the guise of "tolerance". Conscript parents of sodomites, brain- wash them into politikal korrektness and get them on PBS talking, writing articles. What could be more absurd than a straight person "helping" the militant homosexual agenda? Straights under the guise of "religion" too, helping the sodomites to call it "good" to heckle and boo the boys of the BSA (what ever happened to all the "to do" over the "children"? Do sodomites ummm "care" about these boys when their own agenda is at stake? Does it look like it?). And helping the sodomites to call it "good" that sodomite propaganda and brain-washing has infiltrated the kindergarten and elementary sckools of Amerika. And sodomites big thing in life is "Mentoring". Wouldn't they *love* to be in the position of... Those change agents and facilitators trained by the GLSEN and other groups, backed by Marxist, Leninist, and Socialist thought, and behind them Nazi tactics, working on those guilt-ridden liberal fools. Soft Christians trying to live by Jesus' words, "loving the sinner but hating the sin". Meanwhile, being double-minded and konfused, the enemy enters their schools and is after their boy scouts. Farrakhan has eyes to see and is teaching his people very well the nature of racism. And they rise up to the challenge, even with AK-47s. Farrakhan teaches well the nature of things. Pat Robertson helps to speak for almost long-forgotten morality. Laura Schlessinger too. And those poor outraged rabbis having a fit that sodomites are in their holocaust museum. Christians know the beauty of their weapons. It's spiritual warfare and it's time to dust them off and look at them once again, get the feel of them, admire them Slow train coming down the track... And it's spiritual warfare, flesh and blood breaking down. You either got faith or you got unbelief -- and there is NO Neutral Ground.

His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed, He took off his three cornered hat, and speaking low, he said: "We fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and the home of the brave. You buy permits to travel, and permits to own a gun, Permits to start a business, or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in choosing how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school, that doesn't educate. Your Christian values can't be taught, according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. You pay a tax you do not owe, to please the I.R.S. Your money is no longer made of Silver, or of Gold. You trade your wealth for paper, so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our Nation turn from God in shame. You've taken Satan's number as you've traded in your name. You've given government control, to those who do you harm, So they can padlock churches, and steal the family farm; And keep our country deep in debt, put men of God in jail, Harass your fellow countrymen, while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oath they've sworn. Your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders ship artillery and guns to foreign shores. And send your sons to slaughter, fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage, or the faith to stand with pride Are there no more values, for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children, live in fear and be a slave Sons of the Republic, arise and take a stand Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land Preserve our great Republic, and each GOD-Given Right. And pray to GOD to keep the torch of Freedom burning bright." As I awoke he vanished, in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants, trample each God-Given Right. We only watch and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside, in a dream, while you're asleep, And wondered what remains of our Rights he fought to keep; What would be your answer, if he called out from the Grave: IS THIS STILL THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE ? - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ T O P I C A The Email You Want. http://www.topica.com/t/16 Newsletters, Tips and Discussions on Your Favorite Topics A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Brain-Updating Machinery May Explain False Memories
-Caveat Lector- NEW YORK TIMES September 19, 2000 Brain-Updating Machinery May Explain False Memories By SANDRA BLAKESLEE Scientists may have found a biological reason to explain why two people who witness the same event will, years later, often have different memories of what happened. It seems that every time an old memory is pulled into consciousness, the brain takes it apart, updates it and then makes new proteins in the process of putting the memory back into long-term storage. The fact that new proteins are made means that the memory has been transformed permanently to reflect each person's life experiences - not the memory itself.

[CTRL] Book Maps a Nation's Spurts of Clean Living
-Caveat Lector- New York Times September 19, 2000 Book Maps a Nation's Spurts of Clean Living In the fall of 1977 the American Cancer Society organized the first national "Great American Smokeout," urging smokers to quit for a day. Within five years, Jerry Falwell founded the Moral Majority and Jane Fonda sold millions of aerobics videos. Dr. Ruth Clifford Engs, a professor of applied health science at Indiana University in Bloomington sees a connection. In her new book "Clean Living Movements: American Cycles of Health Reform" (Praeger), Dr. Engs shows how Americans' fervor for self-improvement occurs in spurts. And interest in health and religion usually occurs at the same time. Her book traces the nation's obsessions with food, diet and religion and describes a country of extremists, who embrace preventive health and rigid moral codes one generation only to rail against them the next. So far, Dr. Engs say, Americans have experienced three so-called clean-living movements. Each one involved campaigns against tobacco, alcohol and premarital sex. Dr. Engs tracks the cultural forces that prompt each movement and those that set off each rebellion against health, and the story is told in an appealing way for mass audiences. But it is being marketed for scholars and is listed at $69.50. In a telephone interview, Dr. Engs described her findings: "Our country was founded in an era of ferment. We were founded in an awakening, and we usually have them about every 80 years. They usually start with a conservative religious awakening that goes into health concerns, with alcohol as one thread, another thread is fitness, and another is some aspect of sexuality. There is also a concern about producing the perfect baby." The question, she added, is why the fervor fades. Sometimes, Dr. Engs said, one generation believes healthy living will solve all society's woes, but when problems continue, the next generation loses faith. And eventually, new reformers start the cycle again. Though specifics vary, Dr. Engs shows similarities among the movements. Health zealots through the ages have urged Americans to exercise and avoid greasy food, meat, alcohol and tobacco. Many of these movements, she says, are prompted more by morality than new medical knowledge. In the 1830's, for instance, health reformers pleaded with Americans to quit smoking not so much because it was a health hazard but because it was considered "morally depraved." Whether a reader goes along with her theory, the book is chock full of amusing anecdotes and brief biographies of those she calls health fanatics. Mr. Falwell and Ms. Fonda continue a long American tradition of believers, preaching their gospel of moral or physical fitness. In the first "Clean Living Movement," which the author says occurred from about 1830 to 1860, the Mormons and Seventh-day Adventists preached salvation through healthy living. Charles Grandison Finney, a Presbyterian preacher and lawyer-turned- evangelist crusaded against alcohol, coffee, tea and meat. At the same time, the American Temperance Society and the American Anti-Tobacco Society were founded. These were the days of Sylvester Graham, who started "Grahamism," which advocated hard beds, cold baths, vegetarian diets, wheat bread and gave rise to the Graham cracker. He persuaded followers to avoid fried foods, butter, pastries and salt pork and to drink pure water only. Health advocates also condemned women's fashion of tight corsets and long dresses. They believed the outfits damaged internal organs and debilitated women so much that they would give birth to weak offspring. Amelia Jenks Bloomer, a women's rights advocate, designed a new outfit the "bloomer" suitable for outdoor exercise and physical activity. The Fowlers Orson; his brother, Lorenzo; and Lorenzo's wife, Dr. Lydia Folger Fowler wrote and published books and newsletters instructing couples on how to make better babies. They warned against marrying women with indigestion, liver complaints, melancholia or heartburn. Those kind of folk, they said, should not have children. Truly "superior offspring," they added, could only be obtained when lovers engaged in a "spiritual banquet of love." In other words, the woman had to have an orgasm. The First Clean Living Movement lost momentum to the Civil War. The second movement, from 1880 to 1920, included the founding of the Y.M.C.A., the New Thought Movement, which encouraged believers to replace negative thoughts with positive ones, and a new slew of fitness fanatics. Bernarr Macfadden was the exercise guru of the 1890's. He invented muscle-

In this way, many of the people who might otherwise provide a reasoned account of the identities and methods of the establishment are bamboozled, and wind up sounding like, or in fact being, lunatics." "In particular, stories of establishment involvement with extraterrestrial visitors and paranormal phenomena thwart the efforts of many to distinguish the real from the fictitious. Chris Carter's ``X Files'' and ``Millennium'' are inheritors of a prodigious legacy of programs that encourage this confusion. More than simply acting as intellectual equivalents of radar chaffe and heat flares, these programs deflect blame to an unaccountable and incomprehensible ``other.'' Since this type of paranoid conspiratorial pseudscience horror programming is naturally appealing to some writers and producers, the establishment need only covertly grease the path to assure some of this programming is budgeted and distributed for maximum effect."

HACKWORTH Finally, after much dancing and jabbing, the two major contenders for the Oval Office have agreed to slug it out face to face. Since our warriors are the first ones at risk when the Prez says "go," it would be only fitting if the candidates agree to at least one debate at Fort America. Then the troops would know they're not taken for granted and that their voices count in the democracy they've taken an oath to defend with their lives. Here are a few questions our warriors have sent my way: Marine grunt: "Mr. Bush, since your dad sent us to Somalia in 1992, we've been doing Meals On Wheels missions around the globe that have nothing to do with defending our country. Do you intend to continue these, or employ us only when America's security interests are genuinely involved?" Navy fighter pilot: "Mr. Gore, every year since '92 we've been flying fewer hours. Now our tactical proficiency's down the tubes. During the Serbia War we missed half of our targets. Vice Adm. John Nathman said recently that Naval Air will soon be unable to do the job. What'll you do to change this?" Army sergeant major: "Mr. Bush, I've been wearing this uniform since 1969 and have never seen more self-serving senior leaders than we have today. This observation is supported by the thousands of our best and brightest who're walking. We've recently caught generals hitting on their aides' wives, stealing and lying. And look at top dog Gen. Hugh Shelton, who's been insisting our readiness status is 'good to go.' Even a recruit knows we can't do even another Desert Storm. What're you planning to do about cleaning up the senior ranks and returning the trust that once existed from the top of the Army to the bottom -- which in today's Army is as out of fashion as a pair of old brown boots?" Air Force maintenance sergeant: "Mr. Gore, most of the aircraft we have are older than my airmen who turn the wrenches. Spare parts are as hard to find as a 50-buck loan the day before payday. More than 40 percent of our squadrons couldn't hack a hot operational mission. How'll you turn this around?" Marine major: "Mr. Bush, our armed forces are still organized to fight the Cold War. Our platforms -- tanks, ships and aircraft -- are old and obsolete for the kind of wars we'll fight this century. What's your vision for modernization?" Army sergeant major: "Mr. Gore, the last nonpolitical, nonwheeler-dealer SecDef we've had was George Marshall. Even Bevis and Butt-head know we gotta reorganize our forces and hunker down for some hairy fights down the track that'll be nothing like the past. I reckon your choice as SecDef will be the most important cabinet position you'll fill. We need someone who will cut the flab, waste, redundancy and duplication. Just whom do you have in mind?" Navy commander: "Mr. Bush, besides having an organization that's changed little since George Washington crossed the Delaware, a worry most of us in the profession of arms have is that America's basically been rudderless since the end of the Cold War. There's no national strategy. What is your vision for our national security?" Air Force sergeant: "Mr. Gore, you're on record that as president you'll permit homosexuals to openly serve. Many of my buddies say they'll leave the service if this happens. The experts from war-fighters to military sociologists say such a policy would destroy morale, unit cohesion and teamwork. Has this information caused you to change your mind?" Army drill sergeant: "Mr. Bush, each year Sensitivity and Consideration for Others Training becomes more important than combat drills. Gender-bending by pushing women into jobs they can't handle has lowered the standards. The warrior ethic has all but disappeared. Basic training's become a joke. We don't create warriors anymore, we produce cheerleaders. Sadly, all this politically correct jazz started on your father's watch. Do you intend to turn this dangerous trend around?" Maybe you'll have a chance to ask your pols these questions yourself when they come around begging for your vote. Surely, the Joes and Janes that do the dying deserve some answers! *** ©2000 David H.

To my knowledge, no .50 caliber rifle has ever been used in the commission of a crime. My rifle cost $6,750. The telescope on the rifle cost $4,500. The ammunition I most often shoot costs @ $4.00 per round. While I tell you this, understand that what I'm trying to tell you is that I would be an idiot to spend $11,000 on a rifle to risk losing it in the legal aftermath of its illegal use.

-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! ARTICLE 4 ~~~ Army Readiness - Proof of Rot ~~~ Ed.: Smell the decay? This readiness report made me retch. It explicitly describes why we are not ready to fight - manning superfluous positions, overemphasis on the wrong training items, useless competitions, and not letting NCO's conduct critical hands-on training, with exception of Sergeants Time, once a week. Not the norm some of you will say. Think again! Not long ago, I fought similar mismanagement of time and resources in a frontline tank battalion. It hasn't changed yet, although a few islands of sanity are appearing. *** By Ken M., Staff Sergeant, now Army National Guard I am a recently discharged NCO, with nine years of active service, four years in Special Operations, four in the Infantry of the 101st, and one in a support battalion in Korea. It was my last tour in the support battalion as a medical platoon sergeant that convinced me to pull the plug. I was in Korea at the time the guys from the north and south were shooting at each other in the Sea of Japan. It is our response to this incident that prompted me to write. My specialty was filled with the number of troops I was authorized. But ... they really did not exist in my platoon formation: One was the Battalion Commander's secretary, three assigned to support the troop medical clinic, one NCO was tasked to the Department of Public Works, one assigned as the Command Sergeant Major's "runner", one NCO tasked to be the Battalion Master Driver, and two assigned to the orderly room as clerks. This made up 30% of the soldiers I was tasked to train to fight survive and win in combat. A week of the training schedule looked as follows: Daily PT, mostly runs, at a knee-burning slow pace that allowed even the fattest non-soldiers to finish with the team. Mondays: Motor Stables and Commander's Time (weapons maintenance). The Motor Stables were a farce. We were in the most forward deployed division in the army, and still working on deuce-and-a-half trucks that we were ordered not to order parts for (they were to be replaced by the new LMTV later this year- vehicles that I had signed for at Fort Campbell two years prior). The deuces were older than anyone in my company, and only ran because of careful ministrations from my diligent troops. We had tracked M113A3 ambulances. The entire time I was there (14 months), only 75 percent were truly functional, although not meeting the guidelines to be "deadlined" and show up on the Commander's hot list. Commander's time was meant to do maintenance on all of the other items of equipment that we were assigned. It mostly involved cleaning weapons, as they were the only items inspected by the command. Our NBC gear, radios, crypto stuff, and pro-masks were neglected. Tuesdays were typically occupied in part by mandatory briefing by higher-level commanders. The subjects included Equal Opportunity, Sexual Harassment, Consideration of Others classes, fraternization policies, Korean relations and the like. The remainder of the day was typically spent finishing whatever maintenance was left over from the previous day. Wednesdays were training meetings for the leaders. This half-day event was used to discuss the next eight weeks of training (doctrinally six) and the previous week on a TPU (trained, needs practice, untrained) scale. It was a horrible sin to declare an element U- untrained in some task. That simply did not brief well. Instead P minus or simply P were used. Briefs much better. The soldiers were concurrently working on broken vehicles, or trying to get a head start on the weekly grounds maintenance Thursdays were Sergeant's Time. This is the day set aside to perform training on the units declared "go to war" critical tasks. The uniforms looked good but the training typically shoddy -- lack of funds, or lack of trained trainers. It inevitably led to an increase in the P and U ratings at the next training meeting. The afternoon was spent teaching medical skills at a remedial level to soldiers who were fresh from medical AIT, and had failed to grasp them there. I had a medical PFC miss three consecutive IVs on me during a hip-pocket training event, whereas 100% of my combat lifesaver class the previous week got first time GOs. Fridays were generally grounds maintenance days and longer PT runs. They also included finishing up any tasks with the vehicles left undone. At least one day near the end of each month was burned because some mandatory briefing had to be performed before the calendar page turned, and had somehow been neglected. The training hours were mandated. PT would last a prescribed length of time. The duty day was a certain number of hours. The result was a unit that briefed well, looked good in garrison, but had absolutely no warfighting ability.

ARTICLE 10 Voices from the Frontlines From Korea I am an NCO and I have so many "butter bars" and young captains in my business that it isn't fun anymore. Whatever happened to officers who planned and made smart decisions and NCOs who executed the mission? I am totally surrounded by officers who are more worried about their efficiency reports than being worried that our tanks can shoot, move and communicate. I deadline the rides and they just circle X them or ignore my troubleshooting altogether. I am dedicated to sending tankers into battle with the best equipment I can provide them with.

It could not have come at a more interesting time for me. Shortly, a Chinese Navy 2-star Admiral is coming for a tour of the USS CARL VINSON (CVN 70). We are spending the next couple of days (and possibly the weekend) doing nothing but cleaning (with a small exception for a General Quarters Drill), so the ship is spotless for his arrival. Rumor has it that he is also pushing for a tour of Naval Submarine Base Bangor and one of our SSBNs stationed there. Last time we checked, China wasn't our best friend, maybe we shouldn't be rolling out the red carpet... --- From Bosnia We are eight troops assigned to the Turkish army base camp far from the flagpole. I want to let you know that the Army, the good tough Army we knew and know...is alive and well here. We have a tough job but the kids suck it up and drive on. I was distressed to hear the story related by the NCO in this WED newsletter. I can only speak for my tiny slice of the green...but I assure you, it is squared away, tough and professional. I had volunteered for this assignment. It has taken a toll on the family and the finances have suffered, but it was a good choice. I've made a difference here and made some great friends with Turkish and American warriors. It has been a long 9 months here but I (we) would not have traded it for anything. We will re-deploy back to the states in several days and our memory bags are full! === ARTICLE 11 ~ Memory Lane: Mr. Servoise ~ Ed.: A touching story, submitted by Abe Sternberg. A Frenchman recalls the liberation by US Forces and the joyful reaction of a French WWI veteran with the Big Red One, a unit he had known from his own days in the trenches. *** By Jean I was preparing documents for my friend Leonard Jiminez, whose father is a WWII " Blue and Gray" veteran, on the eve of the 56th anniversary of my Liberation by the U.S Army. As I was writing, I remembered a story I never told. It happened on 29 August 1944. I met the U.S Army on the late afternoon of 28 August but no American troops passed by my grandmother's village before the next morning. In front of our house lived a WWI disabled veteran. His name was Georges SERVOISE. Before the war, I only saw him in his small garden, as he picked up some licorice. Because of his wounds, he could only walk a few yards and always helped himself with two crutches. His sisters used to come everyday to take care of him. Mr Servoise' s house was at the corner of a small grassy path that we had to take to go to the fountain about forty yards farther along. We had a ceremonial to respect that my grandmother dictated. The first time of the day I had to go to the fountain, was the first salute: " Good morning, Mr Servoise!" The old man replied the salute: " Good morning Johnny!" The next time (we had no water at home) there were other salutes: " Mr Servoise, are you fine?" The old soldier replied: " I'm fine!" Nothing else. The months and years rolling he did not walk outside anymore. Now, I realize how hard was the life " between the two wars" in the North East of France. The old ones, unable to walk outside, used to stay at home in a chair next to a window, looking outside for some passer-by. And it seems that it was not the use to visit them except the next of kin. It's a fact that in southern France people were more cooperative with the old ones who received several visits everyday. Well, so we lived and Mr Servoise, if I recall, never asked us for any help. And then came the famous 29 August 1944 that I called "MY DAY." In the morning, when the first Americans stopped in the village, they were coming by a small road which is between my grandmother's house and in front of Mr Servoise's. They stopped and it was great for all of us, involving me as THE

[CTRL] Dimona
-Caveat Lector- Hot linques at site From http://www.arabia.com/article/print/0,4973,29289,00.html }}Begin -- This story was printed from http://www.arabia.com, News channel. -- Israel's Dimona worries Arab nuclear experts Finally, pictures of Dimona - Israel's aging nuclear reactor - have been made public September 20, 2000, 06:07 PM CAIRO (AROL) - Israel's Dimona nuclear reactor, had been shrouded in secrecy. The rare imagery, taken on July 4 by Space Imaging Corporation's Ikonos satellite, was recently shown on the Web site of the Federation of American Scientists (FAS). The site exhibits more than seven overview images of the Dimona complex and the surrounding locations, one of which is believed to be the burial ground of low- level nuclear waste. ^ Nuclear experts believe this is the first time that the public has access to data and images of Israel's nuclear facility. Perhaps a more important revelation, however, is what the report described as "the most significant finding" which is that Israel's nuclear weapons stockpile probably consists of between 100 to 200 nuclear weapons. This is contrary to previous reports that Israel might possess as many as 400 N-bombs. "This, again, confirms Israel's possession of nuclear weapons," Fawzi Hammad, former head of the Egyptian Atomic Energy Authority said. "The most significant finding is that the data confirms that Israel has 200 nuclear warheads, proving that Dimona has a big inventory, even bigger than what some of the big powers may possess," Hammad said. Concerns in rise The images were compared to other pictures of the nuclear complex taken by a US reconnaissance satellite in 1971. The images show that modest changes have taken place in the central part of the complex over the past 30 years, but dozens of smaller buildings were built during the same period. Another important revelation made by the report, according to Abdel-Gawad Emara, a member of the Egyptian Nuclear Safety Authority, is that the reactor is aging, given that it was built in 1963, yet it continues to be the site of intensive nuclear activity, raising concerns about its safety. The report does not mention whether measures Emara called the "life extension" of the complex - a procedure which minimises the effects of aging and the likelihood of nuclear leakage - had been taken. "The danger lies in the fact that the reactor is old and has never been open to international inspection, meaning we don't know what's going on in there. Therefore, it remains a suspect nuclear threat next door," Emara said. US turns blind eye to Israels activities ^ Sources at the FAS said the federation's main task is to monitor nuclear activities around the globe. They added that the United States has always turned a blind eye to Israel's nuclear activity provided it does not conduct nuclear tests. It was precisely this point which topped the agenda when US Energy Secretary, Bill Richardson, visited Egypt two months ago. According to Hammad, Egyptian scientists and officials urged that pressure be put on Israel to reveal its nuclear facilities and allow international inspection. Richardson's response, according to Hammad, was; "We will look into the matter." "We demanded that the nuclear complex at Dimona, in particular, be opened to inspection because of the threats it is likely to pose to neighboring countries," Hammad said. He believes the publication of the images and data on Dimona on the FAS site is but one step towards greater transparency on Israel's secret nuclear activities, breaking the long-standing information blackout. Nuclear contamination The FAS report also coincided with fresh allegations about possible radioactive contamination caused by the burial of tonnes of radioactive waste in a disposal area one kilometer from the main Dimona facility. Meanwhile, Egyptian officials dismissed the contamination reports. Sayed Mish'al, minister of state for military production, said that Egypt "possesses the most up-to-date equipment for detecting any radioactive leakage" and that there is no evidence of nuclear contamination in this country. Despite these assurances, the FAS report has reinforced previous perceptions of Israel posing a constant threat to the region due to the fact that its nuclear facilities were never opened to international inspection. Officials at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) admit they are not operating a fully effective and comprehensive safeguard system in Israel as they are in Iraq, "because the agency has no right to implement such safeguards in Israel since Israel is not a party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT)." "It is not the weakness of the safeguard system, but rather a consequence of state sovereignty," Mohamed El-Baradei, director-general of the IAEA, said. "We are not an international nuclear police
[CTRL] The Pledge of Allegiance
-Caveat Lector- [Unable to display image] As a schoolboy, one of Red Skelton's teachers explained the words and meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance to his class. Skelton later wrote down,and eventually recorded, his recollection of this lecture. It is followed by an observation of his own. Red Skelton's Commentary on "The Pledge of Allegiance" I - - Me; an individual; a committee of one. Pledge - - Dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self-pity. Allegiance - - My love and my devotion. To the Flag - - Our standard; Old Glory ; a symbol of Freedom; wherever she waves there is respect, because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts, Freedom is everybody's job. United - - That means that we have all come together. States - - Individual communities that have united into forty-eight great states. Forty-eight individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose. All divided with imaginary boundaries, yet united to a common purpose, and that is love for country. And to the Republic - - Republic--a state in which sovereign power is invested in representatives chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people; and it's from the people to the leaders,not from the leaders to the people. For which it stands One Nation - - One Nation--meaning, so blessed by God. Indivisible - - Incapable of being divided. With Liberty - - Which is Freedom; the right of power to live one's own life, without threats, fear, or some sort of retaliation. And Justice - - The principle, or qualities, of dealing fairly with others. For All - - For All--which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine. And now, boys and girls, let me hear you recite the Pledge of Allegiance: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands; one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country, and two words have been added to the Pledge of Allegiance: Under God. Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer, and that would be eliminated from schools, too?

We all know how gasoline prices have shot up. Supposedly because there is a shortage of crude oil. But.. When was the last time you heard talk of an energy shortage? Probably does not ring a bell, because there has not been talk about an energy shortage in quite a while. Why not? The reason is a substance called Methane Ice. It turns out that there is more energy trapped in methane ice than all the known oil, coal and natural gas put together. How much more? Perhaps even twice as much energy. What is methane? Natural gas is primarily methane, and there are plenty of busses and cars running on that at the moment. Where do you find Methane Ice? Apparently on almost all coastal shelves at depths greater than 600 feet. What is it? It is water that has methane gas trapped in it. Despite the fact that methane is a greenhouse gas, little is ever said about any possible 'global warming' effects of natural releases from undersea deposits. But, when methane is released into the atmosphere, it quickly decomposes into carbon dioxide! Now while the sky is falling environmentalists are hollering about carbon dioxide, they say little about methane coming from the ocean. But, atmospheric methane is rising faster than carbon dioxide. What are natual sources of methane? Swamps and gas expelled from bovine animals. Seen any wetlands increasing lately? These facts are not secret, just not much presented to you by the Ministry of Truth (your TV station).

-Caveat Lector- Via http://www.insightmag.com/ From http://www.worldnetdaily.com/bluesky_exnews/2918_xex_al_gores_bru.shtml }}Begin excerpt TENNESSEE UNDERWORLD Al Gore's Uncle Whit Targeted as alleged drug trafficker by federal, state law enforcement Editor's note: For Al Gore's presidential campaign, the all-important mission of distancing its candidate from what is arguably the most corrupt administration in U.S. history -- in which Gore has served for eight years as the No. 2 man -- has not been easy. Yet, until last week, the carefully choreographed campaign seemed to be succeeding, according to polls. Then the story broke, carried by most of the major media, that Gore was linked to the solicitation of a $100,000 bribe in 1995 in exchange for a presidential veto. Gore's carefully cultivated "squeaky-clean" image began to fade, as memories of campaign finance violations -- the Buddhist Temple, the "iced tea" defense, FBI assertions that the vice president was lying -- threatened to flood back into the public mind. Now come new revelations. Following is Part 1 of an exclusive three-part WorldNetDaily series on Gore's highly controversial relationships and actions in his home state of Tennessee. The articles were researched and written by native Tennessean reporters Charles C. Thompson II and Tony Hays. Thompson is a long-time veteran of network news, having been a founding producer of ABC's "20/20," as well as Mike Wallace's producer at CBS's "60 Minutes." His most recent book, "A Glimpse of Hell: The Explosion on the U.S.S. Iowa and Its Cover-Up," was released by W.W. Norton in Spring 1999. Hays is an experienced journalist who has written extensively on political corruption in Tennessee. Recently his 20-part series on narcotics trafficking received an award from the Tennessee Press Association. Parts 2 and 3 will be published in tomorrow's and Wednesday's editions of WorldNetDaily.

[CTRL] AP: Ray's Statement on Whitewater Probe (fw)
-Caveat Lector- -- Forwarded message -- Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2000 11:04:48 -0700 From: Ray Heizer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: cl [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: CAS: AP: Ray's Statement on Whitewater Probe Ray's Statement on Whitewater Probe Independent Counsel Robert W. Ray issued the following statement today: This Office has now concluded, with certain limited exceptions, its investigation of the matters commonly referred to as ''Madison Guaranty/Whitewater.'' At this time, it is appropriate, in the public interest, and consistent with the law to inform the public of the findings and conclusions regarding the core matters within this Office's Madison Guaranty/Whitewater jurisdiction. Except for limited pending matters, the Madison Guaranty/Whitewater investigation is now closed. Following enactment of the Independent Counsel Reauthorization Act of 1994, this Office was established on August 5, 1994 to continue the work of regulatory Independent Counsel Robert B. Fiske Jr. to investigate the relationship of James B. McDougal and President and Mrs. Clinton to Madison Guaranty Savings Loan Association (''Madison Guaranty''), Capital Management Services, Inc. (''CMS''), and the Whitewater Development Corporation (''Whitewater Development''). Eleven months ago, on October 18, 1999, the judges of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit's Division for Appointing Independent Counsels appointed me as Independent Counsel with respect to all matters within the previously ordered jurisdiction of this Office, including the Madison Guaranty/Whitewater investigation. Since my appointment, this Office has concluded two matters within our jurisdiction -- matters commonly referred to as the ''FBI Files'' matter and the ''Travel Office'' matter. The Madison Guaranty/Whitewater investigation resulted in the conviction of 12 defendants, including former Arkansas Governor Jim Guy Tucker, Jim and Susan McDougal, and former Associate Attorney General Webster L. Hubbell. This Office investigated whether Jim and Susan McDougal committed any crimes in connection with Madison Guaranty, CMS, or Whitewater Development by using control of two financial institutions -- Madison Guaranty and Madison Bank Trust -- to lend money to or for the benefit of Whitewater Development and to pay Whitewater Development financial obligations at a time when the McDougals and the Clintons jointly owned Whitewater Development. In May 1996, Jim and Susan McDougal were convicted in federal court in Arkansas of various crimes involving Madison Guaranty, CMS, and Whitewater Development. According to one federal bank regulatory agency, the failure of Madison Guaranty cost the taxpayers $73 million. This Office investigated whether President and Mrs. Clinton knowingly participated in any criminal conduct related to Madison Guaranty, CMS, or Whitewater Development or had any knowledge of such conduct. This Office determined that the evidence was insufficient to prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt that either President or Mrs. Clinton knowingly participated in any criminal conduct involving Madison Guaranty, CMS, or Whitewater Development or knew of such conduct. The evidence relating to their testimony and conduct, in connection with this investigation and other investigations involving the same entities, was also, in the judgment of this Office, insufficient to prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt that either of them committed any criminal offense, including perjury (18 U.S.C. 1621) or obstruction of justice (18 U.S.C. 1503). The following findings and conclusions relate to publicly disclosed matters investigated by this Office. Information obtained through grand jury proceedings or other confidential methods is not included in this statement. Upon conclusion of pending matters, this Office intends to submit to the Court a final report ''setting forth fully and completely a description of the work'' of the Office. 28 U.S.C. 594(h). 1. The investigation made the following findings and conclusions: This Office investigated whether President Clinton gave knowingly false testimony when he testified in the 1996 trial of Mr. McDougal, Ms. McDougal, and Governor Tucker that he ''never borrowed any money from Madison Guaranty,'' ''[never caused anybody to borrow any money for [his benefit,'' and ''[never ha[d any personal loan with Madison Guaranty at any time.'' At Susan McDougal's 1999 trial for criminal contempt (18 U.S.C. 402) and obstruction of justice (18 U.S.C. 1503) for her refusal to testify about matters that included an alleged $27,600 Madison Guaranty loan to President Clinton, the government introduced two checks as evidence of the alleged loan. The first check was an actual Madison Guaranty cashier's check, dated November 15, 1982, made out to ''Bill Clinton'' in the amount of $27,600 that was found, by happenstance, among other Madison Guaranty records in the trunk of a car in July 1997
[CTRL] WSJ: FUND: Ignore the Polls
-Caveat Lector- JOHN FUND'S POLITICAL DIARY Ignore the Polls The campaign isn't over yet. Wednesday, September 20, 2000 12:01 a.m. EDT The political obituaries are rolling in. William Saletan of Slate.com: "Bush is toast." Lawrence O'Donnell of "The McLaughlin Group": "It's over." Eric Alterman of MSNBC.com: "Barring extraterrestrial intervention, the election's over and Gore won it." Why? Pundits are citing polls like the one just out from Newsweek that shows Al Gore leading George W. Bush by 14 points among likely voters. All this makes you wonder why we still have campaigns to capture the attention of inattentive voters and change their minds. The polls vary in their methodology, and too often the poll-obsessed nature of campaign coverage freezes public perceptions of the candidates and contributes to the low voter turnout everyone in the media claims to be against. The Newsweek poll turns out to be of only 580 likely voters over two nights. One of them was a Friday, when pollsters say more Democrats are at home. In 1996, Newsweek's late-October survey had Bob Dole losing to Bill Clinton by a whopping 23 points. Mr. Dole lost by eight. (Newsweek's pollster says it did a final but unpublished survey that showed an 11-point margin.) Other polls with a better track record show different results. The bipartisan Hotline poll shows the race tied. The Battleground poll, a joint project of Democratic pollster Celinda Lake and GOP pollster Ed Goeas, got the 1996 Clinton victory margin right within 0.5% of the vote. As of this Tuesday, their nightly tracking poll has Mr. Bush leading Mr. Gore by four points. Similarly, the Rasmussen Research nightly tracking poll now shows Mr. Bush with a 44% to 41% lead among likely voters. Mr. Rasmussen uses a telephone prompting system rather than live interviewers to survey respondents, a controversial technique. But an analysis by the Progressive Review found that his polls--along with those of Gallup and Zogby--proved to be the most accurate during this year's primaries, and his lower costs allow him to survey more people and reduce his margin of error to 2%. The third nightly tracking poll is Gallup, which has a good record even if its final 1996 survey overstated Mr. Clinton's winning margin by three percentage points. It currently shows Mr. Gore holding a four-point lead over Gov. Bush. Averaged together, the three nightly tracking polls show a one-point Bush lead. In recent years, election polls have often overestimated the Democrats' share of the vote. People like to tell pollsters they plan to fulfill their civic duty and vote. In reality, about one-third of people who say that won't show up. The best polls figure out if people are engaged enough to be likely voters. Even with those efforts, polls often oversample groups such as blue-collar women that end up not voting in high numbers. Turnout, which in 1996 fell below half of all adults, does matter. The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC poll has Mr. Gore leading among registered voters by 45% to 42%, but Mr. Bush leading by 45% to 43% among likely voters. There are other reasons polls may tilt slightly toward Democrats. Warren Mitofsky, who developed exit polling for CBS News in the 1960s, believes Democrats are more likely to respond to media polls than are Republicans, who may distrust the "liberal" news media. More than 60% of those pollsters try to contact routinely hide behind answering machines or otherwise refuse to answer. "This makes survey results more uncertain, and should cause concern, caution and above all humility in reporting the results," says Leo Bogart, a former president of the American Association for Public Opinion Research. That humility was not found among the media in 1996, when almost every major poll overstated President Clinton's victory margin. Purdue University professor Gerald S. Wasserman says his mathematical analysis of the 1996 polls showed them to be "a collective failure," all erring in Mr. Clinton's favor. He found that only once in 4,900 elections would chance alone produce that. "To continue to use current polling technology without calling for a change would be like having a gambler play after the roulette wheel comes up red 12 times in a row," he says. "In both cases, it might just be chance, but any sensible person would stop and check the apparatus before going on." Unfortunately, polls help dictate media coverage. Reporters overemphasize certain elements of a candidate's personality--Mr. Gore's penchant for exaggeration or Mr. Bush's verbal flubs--if the polls turn against one or the other. Then until the polls turn again, coverage conforms to the stereotype. ABC's George Stephanopoulos, a key strategist in Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign, said last week that political scientists "talk about the bandwagon effect, that once a candidate gets in the zone, all of the coverage is good, almost no matter what happens, and when you're out of the zone, even when do you do
[CTRL] REU: [Is Clinton] A Black Man Masquerading In a White Body
-Caveat Lector- [If _I_ had said that about Clinton, or a neighbor or co-worker, I would probably be in trouble, but ...] Wednesday September 20 2:21 PM ET Black Church Group Hails Clinton As One of Its Own By Randall Mikkelsen WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Leaders of one of the nation's largest black churches saluted President Clinton (news - web sites) on Wednesday as a ``black man masquerading in a white body,'' who absorbed political blows for championing African-Americans. ``A lot of the blows that he took were because he would not forsake us,'' said Bishop Chandler Owens of the Church of God in Christ, speaking at the church's annual bishops conference. Owens introduced Clinton after a succession of bishops in the 8-million member church hailed the president for defending affirmative action, intervening in Haiti and working to advance blacks. ``I told the president when he first got elected that he was a black man masquerading in a white body,'' Owens said, as Clinton roared with laughter. ``The president is laughing, but evidently he believes that.'' The bishops urged Clinton to keep working on their behalf after he leaves office next January, and a choir serenaded him with a rafter-rattling spiritual that brought the audience of 600 to its feet singing along with cries of affirmation. ``As long as there is breath in your body ... you will continue to fight for the dignity of America,'' said Bishop Felton Smith. ``Please sir, don't quit.'' Blacks were among Clinton's most unwavering supporters through the impeachment scandal that enveloped the president in the wake of his affair with Monica Lewinsky (news - web sites). ``Mr. Clinton, we've prayed for you. Not only that, but we have spiritually walked with you and your administration. ... We will pray that God will continue to give you strength over all these relentless demons that continue to haunt you,'' said Bishop L.T. Haynes. The bishops denounced current moves in Arkansas to strip Clinton of his law license. Clinton, in his speech, sounded content with his legacy, despite the tarnish of scandal that tainted it. ``The scripture says ... in due season we shall reap. I have to admit, there were times when I thought the winters were too long and I thought we'd never get to the reaping part. But we have,'' he said. He went on to recount economic and social gains during his administration. ``We are supposed to be serving, and if we take a hit now and again along the way, that's just part of the cost of doing service,'' he said. But with his eye on the political ball, Clinton told the group the best way to extend his legacy would be to elect Democratic Vice President Al Gore (news - web sites) to succeed him, and to elect first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton (news - web sites) and other Democrats to the U.S. Senate. ``All we've done for the last eight years is set the table. And the feast is still out there,'' he said. = 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] Broken Faith
-Caveat Lector- More on Indyk (the Britlander-born, Australian-raised fellow) at bottom. AER From http://www.security-policy.org/papers/2000/00-D78.html }}Begin Publications of the Center for Security Policy No. 00-D 78 DECISION BRIEF 19 September 2000 Breaking Faith (Washington, D.C.): Last week, the U.S. ambassador to Israel, morphed from a man who presents his well-established pro-Israeli Labor Party and pro-Arab leanings as the stuff of an "honest broker"(1) into a man who has patently broken faith with Israel. On Friday, Amb. Martin Indyk declared that, when it came to the issue of Jerusalem that has confounded him and his fellow peace- processors, "There is no other solution but to share the holy cityIt is not, and cannot be the exclusive preserve of one religion." Questions as to whether Indyk was simply free-lancing or acting upon instructions from Washington appeared to be settled when, according to the London Guardian, Khalil Jahshan of the American Committee on Jerusalem, a group that supports the Arab line on the holy city, said: "We are delighted to see a representative of the U.S. government saying publicly what we have heard privately -- that there should be a settlement by which all national aspirations are accommodated." As it happens, Indyk's declaration also breaches -- as noted in a properly critical analysis circulated on Monday by the Zionist Organization of America -- a pledge made by candidate "Bill Clinton in 1992...to recognize all of Jerusalem as Israel's, and violates the near-unanimous congressional resolution of 1995 calling for U.S. recognition of united Jerusalem as Israel's capital." Unfortunately, the political landscape is littered with Mr. Clinton's broken campaign promises and actions at odds with the law. Clinton-Gore Embrace Post-Zionism What sets the Indyk declaration apart is what it says about the Clinton-Gore Administration's determination to get a "peace" agreement between Israel and the Palestinians at any price, before the President leaves office -- and, ideally, before the polls close on the Vice President and Hillary Clinton's respective campaigns. Under Messrs. Clinton and Gore, the United States has effectively abandoned its traditional support for Israel as the Jewish State and is now actively collaborating with so-called "Post-Zionist" efforts there that may well leave it neither Jewish nor a state. To be sure, it has in Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak a willing collaborator in this assault on the very essence of the Zionist dream. Stung by the wholesale repudiation his government has experienced over the hash-up it has made of peace diplomacy at the hands of his country's religious and other opposition parties, Barak has declared what amounts to a jihad or holy war on Israel's Jewishness. His "secular revolution" calls for ending the official practice of honoring the Sabbath by suspending most commerce, El Al flights, bus service, etc. from sundown on Friday until the sun sets on Saturday. Barak's 'Secular Revolution' Like most of Barak's actions -- and virtually all of those taken by his sponsor in Washington, Bill Clinton -- the impetus for these steps and for taking them now is transparently political. By appealing to the large number of Israelis who are non-observant Jews, and to Israel's Arabs (who are generally hostile to the Jewish character of the state whose citizens they happen to be), Barak evidently hopes to build a new political base. He clearly is calculating that, if he can just secure a peace deal, irrespective of its terms, he can fashion out of this subset of the electorate a working majority in the Knesset, and avoid the repudiation that his opponents have in mind, and history surely has in store, for him. Barak's secular revolution is, therefore, of a piece with and a necessary precondition for his abandonment of the position taken by every Israeli government since 1967, namely that a unified Jerusalem is Israel's eternal capital. If Israel ceases to be the Jewish State, then it follows ineluctably that such a state's historic attachment to the holy sites of Jerusalem need no longer preclude its government from, in Martin Indyk's words, "sharing" them with the Palestinians. Welcome to Post-Zion. Krauthammer's Critique Urged on by intense U.S. pressure and inducements, the Israeli Prime Minister has gone well beyond agreeing in principle to recognize Arab sovereignty over parts of the Old City of Jerusalem, however. As Charles Krauthammer noted in a characteristically brilliant essay circulated on September 18 by the Jewish World Review: "[Barak also] surrendered the Jordan Valley, a strip of barrenness that buffers Israel from the Arab tank armies to the east, [even though his] own Labor Party insisted for 30 years that it could not be ceded without fatally compromising Israel's security[And] he conceded the principle that Israel should receive and resettle Palestinians who left their homes 52 years ago
[CTRL] JW: Clinton-Gore White House: Filegate Computer Tapes Unreadable
-Caveat Lector- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE September 20, 2000 Contact: Richard Tomkins (202) 646-5172 Clinton-Gore White House: Filegate Computer Tapes Unreadable Backup Tape Computer Data from Craig Livingstone's Office Said Irretrievable By White House Clinton-Gore White House Had Planned to Destroy These Hundreds of Other Computer Back-Up Tapes (Washington, D.C.) The Clinton-Gore White House claimed last week that computer back-up tapes of computers in the White House office that improperly obtained FBI files were "unreadable." The admission came in the ongoing $90 million Filegate class action lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch on behalf of the former Reagan and Bush administration staffers and others whose FBI files were illegally obtained by this White House. Hillary Rodham Clinton is a defendant in this lawsuit. The Clinton-Gore White House had been ordered to search the back-up tapes, which store the contents of desk top and other personal computers, of the Office of Personnel Security the office which obtained the FBI files in question and was run by former bar bouncer D. Craig Livingstone. In allegedly trying to read the tapes, the Clinton-Gore White House has claimed that "the tapes themselves are now unreadable, absent the use of data recovery techniques of which EOP is not currently capable." The tapes are for the computers of Mari Anderson and Edward Hughes, two assistants who worked for Livingstone. Testimony by Mari Anderson had admitted that she and others in the office (Craig Livingstone and political operative Anthony Marceca) knew that they wrongly were obtaining the FBI files of Republicans. Importantly, Livingstone claims that Mari Anderson did his computer word processing for him. Through White House whistleblower Sheryl Hall, Judicial Watch discovered earlier this year that the Clinton-Gore White House was planning to destroy these and hundreds of other back-up tapes of staffers, even though the tapes were being sought in Court. (Ms. Hall was also the individual who uncovered the ongoing Clinton-Gore White House e-mail scandal.) "This stinks to high Heaven. The Clinton-Gore White House planned to destroy these tapes and now these Filegate tapes are unreadable.' We'll be asking the Court to conduct a criminal contempt inquiry," stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman. ### = 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.

-Caveat Lector- Clinton Legacy: Most Convictions, Crookedest Cabinet, 31 Deaths The Progressive Review Saturday, Aug. 12, 2000 As the Democrats' torch (as well as their contributor lists and FBI files) is passed to Al Gore, we thought we'd bring you up to date on our Clinton scandal statistics. Please note that, much as with the Census, the collection of such data is a daunting task, made all the more difficult by the failure of the corporate media to show any interest in it. Notes: Some of the data have not been updated recently and thus understate conditions. In certain areas, such as anomalous deaths, the Progressive Review has used an extremely conservative count. It is important in considering these incidents to bear in mind the following: 1. The fact that anomalies need to be investigated further carries no presumption of how a death actually occurred, only that there remain serious questions that require answers. 2. The possibility of foul play must be taken seriously in a major criminal conspiracy in which more than two score individuals and firms have already been convicted and more than 100 witnesses have pleaded the Fifth Amendment or fled the country. 3. If foul play did occur in any of these cases, that fact by itself does not carry the presumption that the White House was involved. Given the footprints of organized crime, drug trade, foreign espionage and intelligence agencies on the trail of the Clinton story, such an assumption would be ill advised. The Progressive Review welcomes corrections and additions and plans to publish a more definitive version on the occasion upon the departure of the Clinton administration. It is also planning a list of those journalists and public officials who performed best and worst during this egregious period of American history. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. Administration Records Set - The only president ever impeached strictly on grounds of personal malfeasance - Most convictions and guilty pleas - Most Cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation - Most witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify - Most witnesses to die suddenly - Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions - Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad Historical Context - Number of independent counsel inquiries since the 1978 law was passed: 19 - Number that have produced indictments: 7 - Number that produced more convictions than the Starr investigation: 1 - Median length of investigations that have led to convictions: 44 months - Length of Starr-Ray investigation (7/00): 67 months. - Number of Starr-Ray investigation convictions to date (including one governor, one associate attorney general and two Clinton business partners): 15 - Median cost per Starr investigation conviction: $3.5 million as of 3/00 - Total cost of the Starr investigation (3/00) $52 million - Total cost of the Iran-Contra investigation: $48.5 million - Number of Clinton Cabinet members who came under criminal investigation: 5 - Number of Reagan cabinet members who came under criminal investigation: 4 - Number of top officials jailed in the Teapot Dome Scandal: 3 Crime Stats - Number of individuals and businesses associated with the Clinton machine who have been convicted of or pleaded guilty to crimes: 47 - Number of these convictions during Clinton's presidency: 33 - Number of indictments/misdemeanor charges: 61 - Number of imprisonments: 14 - Number of congressional witnesses who have pleaded the Fifth Amendment, fled the country to avoid testifying, or (in the case of foreign witnesses) refused to be interviewed: 122 (9/99) Smaltz Investigation - Guilty pleas and convictions obtained by Donald Smaltz in cases involving charges of bribery and fraud against former Agriculture Secretary Mike Espy and associated individuals and businesses: 15 - Acquitted or overturned cases (including Espy): 6 - Fines and penalties assessed: $11.5 million - Cost of investigation: $22.2 million through 9/99 - Amount Tyson Food paid in fines and court costs: $6 million - Amount Tyson Food still has in annual government contracts: $200 million - Reasons individuals other than Espy went free: Concealing knowledge of gifts to Espy and his girlfriend (1), providing illegal gratuities to Espy(4), illegally supplementing the salary of a government official (2), concealing receipt of illegal funds on behalf of Espy (1) (Espy's chief of staff was sentenced to prison in this case) Crimes for Which Convictions Have Been Obtained Drug trafficking (3), racketeering, extortion, bribery (4), tax evasion, kickbacks, embezzlement (2), fraud (12), conspiracy (5), fraudulent loans, illegal gifts (1), illegal campaign contributions (5), money laundering (6), perjury, obstruction of justice.

[CTRL] Taking Aim at Military Corruption
-Caveat Lector- From: http://www.cosmiverse.com/paranormal092002.html Taking Aim at Military Corruption September 20, 2000 08:20 CDT Leave it to Jeff Rense's Sightings.com news WebPage to dig up obscure items of interest on the Internet. A recent missive posted on the site is about the latest news from an organization few have likely heard about. The news comes from the www.militarycorruption.com website, which has declared victory over censorship at an Army barracks in Pennsylvania. It's operated by veterans from throughout the Armed Forces, and unabashedly takes on issues ranging from pornography sneaking through to military installation computers on the Internet to arms deals with governments overseas. Apparently, militarycorruption.com has also been waging battle with the Carlisle Barracks chain of command in Pennsylvania, which in late August banned the vets' site from Army web-surfers' view. The site's editor said it was the only military installation to have taken such action. Proclaiming a victory for the First Amendment in the military, militarycorruption.com said last week, "in a VICTORY with far-reaching ramifications, the leadership at Carlisle Barracks, Pa. has lifted a post-wide "ban" on MilitaryCorruption.com which went into effect August 25th.

-Caveat Lector- From http://sports.yahoo.com/oly/news/ap/2920/ap-swimming.html Watching from the stands, Chelsea Clinton beamed after Hyman pulled off the biggest upset so far on the fifth night of the eight-day meet. }}Begin Hyman shocks O'Neill; Thompson wins historic gold AP Photo By BETH HARRIS AP Sports Writer September 20, 2000 SYDNEY, Australia (AP) -- Misty Hyman sank Madame Butterfly and Jenny Thompson snapped a tie for Olympic gold as the Americans surprised the Australians with an ambush in the swimming pool. Hyman, a 21-year-old from Phoenix, stunned defending champion Susie O'Neill to win the 200-meter butterfly Wednesday -- much to the amazement of raucous Aussie fans who could hardly believe their eyes. Neither could Hyman. ``I had to look three times, I really did,'' said Hyman, who only qualified in one event. ``Then I started screaming and shaking.'' Thompson won a record seventh gold medal by anchoring the United States to victory in the 800 freestyle relay over the Aussies, who were led by O'Neill. In doing so, the 27-year-old moved ahead of Germany's Kristin Otto in career golds by a woman swimmer, but tied Czech Republic gymnast Vera Caslavska for the second-most Olympic golds by a woman. ``Lucky number seven. I'd like to get a couple more,'' said Thompson, who has the 100 freestyle and another relay remaining. Hyman led all the way to win in an Olympic record 2 minutes, 5.88 seconds, just missing O'Neill's world record by seven one-hundredths of a second. ``I've played it over so many times in my head, but I never thought it would come true,'' said Hyman, who, discouraged by health problems and slow times, was ready to quit swimming in May. The U.S. team of Samantha Arsenault, Diana Munz, Lindsay Benko and Thompson won in an Olympic record 7:57.80, breaking the old mark of 7:59.87 set by the Americans at the 1996 Olympics. In her signature race, O'Neill finished second in 2:06.58. Petria Thomas of Australia took bronze in 2:07.12. O'Neill, known as ``Madame Butterfly,'' broke the oldest record in swimming in May at the Australian Olympic trials when she lowered Mary T. Meagher's 19-year- old world record. But Hyman went out strong and held a body-length lead over O'Neill at the 150- meter mark. The crowd of 17,500 at the Sydney International Aquatic Center urged O'Neill on with shouts of ``Susie!'' but the Aussie never made a run at Hyman. ``I swam as well as I could,'' O'Neill said. ``Obviously, I'm disappointed. Unfortunately, I know my best time would've done it.'' Hyman, a first-time Olympian, swam a lifetime best to stun O'Neill, who was the heavy favorite. She broke out in a huge grin and screamed ``Oh, my God!'' over and over when she realized she'd won. O'Neill swam over to congratulate her. ``Misty got to lay in the weeds and wait for one race,'' U.S. women's coach Richard Quick said. ``She had the ideal race at the ideal time, and life is all about timing.'' After Hyman shook up the pool, Thompson made history. Thompson of Dover, N.H., also tied Australian Dawn Fraser, Kornelia Ender of Germany and fellow American Shirley Babashoff for most Olympic medals by a woman swimmer with eight. Seven of Thompson's medals have come in relays; she won a silver in the 100 freestyle at the 1992 Olympics. Australia earned silver in 7:58.52. Germany won bronze in 7:58.64. The Americans are 2-0 in the women's relays so far. Thompson swam the anchor leg of the winning 400 freestyle relay Saturday for her sixth career gold. Arsenault led off for the Americans and had them in sixth place after 200 meters, while O'Neill had the Australians in first. Munz pulled the Americans into second at 400 meters, and Benko kept them there to set up Thompson. As Thompson worked at overtaking Petria Thomas, Benko pounded on the starting block in Lane 4. ``It was nerve-wracking going last because the race was neck-and-neck the whole way, but I had faith in myself,'' Thompson said. ``This is pretty sweet.'' The Dutch had another big night, thanks to their 1-2 punch of Pieter van den Hoogenband and Inge de Bruijn. Van den Hoogenband won gold in the 100 freestyle in 48.30 seconds, denying Russian Alexander Popov an unprecedented third straight Olympic title in the event. ``After 75 meters, I knew I would bring it home,'' the Dutchman said. ``Now I want to party.'' De Bruijn set her second world record of the Olympics in the semifinals of the 100 freestyle. It was the 12th world mark set or tied in five days of swimming. Popov rallied from sixth at the turn to claim the silver at 48.69. ``I already have plenty of medals,'' said Popov, who trains in Australia. ``I can't win everything. I have to share.'' Gary Hall Jr., of Phoenix, second to Popov four years ago in Atlanta, took bronze in 48.73 -- beating Australia's Michael Klim by one-hundreth of a second. Neil Walker of Verona, Wis., was fifth in 49.05. ``I wanted to get out there and race, but I didn't know if I'd
[CTRL] UFO's And The US And UK Governments
-Caveat Lector- UFOs and the governments of the USA and UK by Armen Victorian From Lobster 32 http://www.lobster-magazine.co.uk/index.htm Researchers who ask for pertinent records from the US Air Force about UFOs are provided with a 'Fact Sheet' which states that since the closure of Project Blue Book in 1974, the USAF has no interest in, and does not study, the subject. The USAF information pack refers inquirers to various non-governmental UFO research organizations which are closely monitored, and, at times, directed by various US intelligence and military agencies. (1) The men from the Ministry In Britain, Air Staff 2 (a), a desk in the Ministry of Defence, manned by junior civil servants such as Nick Pope, J. Palmer, Owen Hartop, Kerry Philpott, and Ralph Noyes, respond to public inquiries. The knowledge of these individuals is limited and their responses consequently sometimes inaccurate. Contrary to claims made by Air Staff 2 (a) that they are privy to all UFO reports, there is a component within the MOD which deals with more serious aspects of this subject. On October 23 1989, in the course of one of my investigations, I contacted this particular MOD section. After the preliminary conversation I was asked if I was prepared to sell my investigation report to them; and later in the course of the conversation, when I suggested sharing information, citing the national security aspects, I was asked if I was prepared to sign a security agreement concerning this issue. I was further asked to prepare a proposal and submit it to them. When I inquired about some landing reports, I was asked to specify the date of the particular cases I had in mind. Although this is a component of the MOD, it is not situated in Whitehall. Neither is it Defence Intelligence 55 (DI55), though sources within DI55 have been helpful in other investigations of mine. Though several individuals in the UK who have witnessed serious UFO cases have been visited by government officials, the MOD has repeatedly denied the existence of such officials. Sometimes in uniform but mostly in civilian clothes, these officials have approached witnesses asking them not to discuss what they have seen with the public or the media. UFO folklore has termed them the Men in Black (MIB). The section in charge of such investigations is Aerospace Intelligence within the MOD. The MOD, and Air Staff 2(a) in particular, have been the chief focus of the search for British information on UFOs. But examination of the MOD's old files shows the absence of any Royal Navy reports. There is also a component within the Admiralty in charge of UFO cases reported at sea, about which researchers have little knowledge. I have also dealt with this component, though I do not know its name. How the Department of Defense treats UFOs Due to its size the US Department of Defence (DoD)does not have a single unit to handle UFO reports. Apart from the many departments known to UFO researchers run from the Pentagon, there is another component about which no public information is available. In the course of studying a serious UFO case from the former Soviet Union, I was advised by the National Reconnaissance Office(NRO) staff in the Pentagon to contact Pentagon House. (2) Located outside the Pentagon, Pentagon House showed immense interest and I was asked to provide them with the raw material I had. All the official records made public under the UFO title are unevaluated reports gathered through various human intelligence means. These reports always quote the term UFO, as it has been relayed to them by sources. Mostly these sources are civilians, unaware of the current official terminology used by the US government. The US military uses two main terms in compiling and studying the UFO subject: Uncorrelated Targets (UCT), for earth-bound unidentified objects, and Uncorrelated Event Reports (UER) for space related events. I wrote to North American Aerospace Defense Command, NORAD, about their terminology. They replied: 'Historically, the term UFO was used by the Air Force starting in 1947 and ending in 1974 with the shelving of the "Blue Book" project. We all know what the term UFO means, we just don't use it.The specific term "UFO" is not used by this command even though you could say that this term would equate to UTR [unknown track report], either an uncorrelated event or an unknown track, since an unidentified flying object could be considered either.'(3) Further, I was told, 'Uncorrelated Events Reports (UERs), which are space related events on the United States Space Command (USSPACECOM) side of the house, are always classified SECRET.' (4) Uncorrelated Targets are categorised as: Significant UCTs, Nonsignificant UCTs, Critical UCTs, and False UCTs. (5) Copies of any serious UCT event are sent to the Missions Systems Integration Board (MSIB). MSIB is composed of all NORAD and US Space Command directorates and senior level representatives from Naval Space

[CTRL] THE CIA, DRUGS, THE GHETTO AND THE MEDIA WHITEWASH
THE CIA, DRUGS, THE GHETTO AND THE MEDIA WHITEWASH http://www.copi.com/articles/Darker.html by Peter Dale Scott If you read the May 13 New York Times, it appeared that nine months of controversy over a major Contra-drug story, published last August by Gary Webb in the San Jose Mercury News, had finally been laid to rest. "Expose on Crack Was Flawed, Paper Says," read the dismissive headline. A Times editorial the next day claimed that Webbs editor, Jerry Ceppos, had admitted in a column that Webbs articles "had been poorly written." Three weeks later, the Times shifted its focus from the story to Webb himself, claiming that his "bare-knuckles" style and "penchant for self-promotion" had split the Mercury newsroom. For a confused public, all this may have seemed like the last word. For those who had been following closely, Jerry Ceppos column of apology, and the Times one-sided oversimplification of it, were only further evidence of a dramatic cover-up, a whitewashing that does not stand up under scrutiny. The cover-up suggests further how frightened the establishment is of the truth behind the story: how U.S. law enforcement was subverted when it came to major drug-traffickers who were also Contra supporters, and how the CIA, by recurringly allying itself with the worlds biggest traffickers, has contributed to the increased flow of drugs into this country. This fear has been enhanced by the rise of the Internet as a public grapevine, a cottage industry alternative press. Amid all the wild stories one can pick up out there in cyberspace, there is also abundant documentation of the big medias own role in a CIA-drug cover-up that has been going on for several decades. In 1986, for example, San Francisco Examiner reporter Seth Rosenfeld broke the story that Contra leaders and supporters had been behind the "Frogman" cocaine shipment seized in San Francisco. The big media ignored this story until after Webb repeated it last August. Instead they reported Reagans charge on television, made only a few hours after the Examiner story, "that top Nicaraguan government officials are deeply involved in drug trafficking." (The DEA itself swiftly debunked this suspect allegation, saying that it had no evidence to implicate high-level Sandinista officials.) But for almost a year the Internet has kept alive the series of stories by Gary Webb in the San Jose Mercury-News, alleging that a California drug ring supplied the cocaine for crack in Los Angeles black neighborhoods, and simultaneously channeled drug profits to the CIA-managed Contra Army in Central America. The Webb Story and the Efforts to Rebut It Webb focused on three figures. One was "Freeway Ricky" Ross, a black dealer who introduced L.A. and other cities to crack. A second was Daniel Blandón, a Nicaraguan who not only supplied Ross (and others) with his cocaine, but developed the concept of creating a mass market for crack. The third was Norwin Meneses, the head of the "Frogman" connection importing cocaine for Blandón. Webb charged that both Meneses and Blandón met regularly with Contra leaders, and by supplying them with drug earnings gained protection from law enforcement. (Blandón, by turning in Ross, ended up on the DEA payroll; Ross, the black, ended up with a life sentence. Meneses was eventually convicted for trafficking, but in Nicaragua, never in the United States.) These allegations have been challenged vigorously by the "responsible" U.S. press: those papers, above all the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, and the Washington Post, who respond most swiftly to the needs and requests of their CIA sources. For those who follow such matters, the special connection between these papers and the CIA is no secret. Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein once wrote in Rolling Stone that the CIAs "relationship with the [New York] Times was by far its most valuable among newspapers, according to CIA officials. From 1950 to 1966, about 10 CIA officials were provided Times cover...[as] part of a general Times policy ... to provide assistance to the CIA whenever possible." The situation at the Washington Post was hardly different. In 1988, the papers owner, Katharine Graham, said in a speech at the CIAs Headquarters: "There are some things the general public does not need to know and shouldnt. I believe democracy flourishes when the government can take legitimate steps to keep its secrets and when the press can decide whether to print what it knows." Grahams words came amid six years of extraordinary efforts by the Post to first suppress, and then contain, the explosive Contra-drug story. I was myself a witness in a secret Congressional hearing, of which the Post falsely reported the Chair as saying that "none of the
[CTRL] Fwd: My Apology to the Media by Robert Lederman
-Caveat Lector- Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2000 01:30:06 -0500 (CDT) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: My Apology to the Media by Robert Lederman My Apology to the Media by Robert Lederman Boy, do I feel stupid. I've been blaming hard-working reporters for biased coverage of the West Nile Virus issue, their silence on the Manhattan Institute's Nazi-CIA-Eugenics link and for refusing to report on the Bush family's close connection to Hitler. In my naivete I was implying that the CIA was somehow influencing their coverage. How ignorant can one person get? Now I know better. After following a series of leads starting from an obscure article found on the internet the whole issue is much clearer and I can announce my findings. The media is not influenced by the CIA-the media is the CIA. Not that I can claim any credit for this insight. There are hundreds of carefully researched articles and even entire books about this subject-not to mention a Congressional report specifically about it. What began the process of pulling the blinders from my eyes was one sentence in a press release announcing Ronald Reagan's nomination of William Casey-the founder of the Manhattan Institute-to be his Director of the CIA. The release mentioned that among Mr. Casey's many accomplishments was that he ran the Reagan campaign, conducted secret intelligence operations during WWII [with Nazi ally and board member of I.G. Farben, Allen Dulles] was the chair of Operation Rescue [a CIA front which helped thousands of former Nazis emigrate to the U.S.], and manipulated the stock market as chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It went on to note that Casey was also the lead counsel [and as I later found out-top stockholder] in Capital Cities, the communications company that owned ABC until it was bought by Disney in 1996. He held that textbook example of a conflict of interest position while serving as CIA director. Following that lead I found that many of Capital Cities founders were also formerly involved in intelligence, many of them having worked with Casey under Allen Dulles-the first CIA director. In other words, ABC was owned by the CIA during the Gulf War and throughout the Reagan, Bush and much of the Clinton administrations. It was bought in 1996 by Disney, a company with many allegations of its own to having a CIA-mind control connection, whose creator had long been considered an FBI informer. Perhaps that explains why Manhattan Institute poster boy for a police state Rudy Giuliani's staged radio show is on WABC. Okay, you say, so ABC was owned by the CIA-that still leaves two other major networks and thousands of newspapers and radio stations that aren't, right? CBS and NBC are owned by Westinghouse and General Electric, the nation's two top suppliers of military hardware, satellites, nuclear reactors and spy equipment. One might be excused for imagining a government connection there as well. According to an article by investigative reporter Carl Bernstein-"The CIA and the Media", Rolling Stone, 10/20/77-prominent US media owners and journalists who have knowingly worked for the CIA include William Paley (CBS), Arthur Sulzberger (NY Times), Henry Luce (Time/Life), William Buckley (National Review), Ben Bradlee (Washington Post), and hundreds of others. "By the early 1950s," writes former Village Voice reporter Deborah Davis in Katharine the Great, "Frank Wisner [head of Allen Dulles' CIA clandestine operation to bring thousands of top Nazis to America] 'owned' respected members of the New York Times, Newsweek, CBS and other communications vehicles, plus at least four to six hundred reporters, according to a former CIA analyst." This CIA network of top U.S. media contacts was called Operation Mockingbird and was directly overseen by CIA director Allen Dulles, the Nazis' number one coordinator between American corporations and the Third Reich. "You could get a journalist cheaper than a good call girl, for a couple hundred dollars a month."

From: "Katherine The Great," by Deborah Davis, New York: Sheridan Square Press, 1991. In a 1988 speech at CIA headquarters, Washington Post publisher Katherine Graham said, "We live in a dirty and dangerous world.

[CTRL] Interview W/ Abrams And Others Re: GUATEMALA MASSACRES
-Caveat Lector- Guatemala Massacre http://www.copi.com/articles/GUATMALA.HTM Excerpts from "Charlie Rose," March 31, 1995 Guests: Rep. Robert Torricelli, Elliot Abrams, Allan Nairn -- -- This may not be news to most Deep Times readers, but it is a conveniently packaged interview that might be effective with students when discussing "human rights" and imperialism. The massacre in Guatemala of 100,000 is on a proportionate scale, equivalent to TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND Tienamien Square incidents. That's 25,000 times as many deaths, in relation to the size of the country, and of course, students know quite a bit more about the China incident than they do about Guatemala. -(forwarded by Alan Spector) -- -- . Rose: Tell me what you have found out, Allan. You've got a story in the Nation magazine thats called "CIA Death Squad: Americans Have Been Directly Involved in Guatemalan Army Killings." What can you add to this story before I go to Elliot in Washington? . Nairn: Alpirez is one Colonel on the CIA payroll who committed two murders. From talking to both Guatemalan and US operatives involved in this, its clear that there are many, perhaps dozens of Guatemalan military officers on the CIA payroll who've been involved in thousands of killings. The G-2, the military intelligence service which coordinates tha assinations and disappearances -- their top officials have for years been paid by the CIA. I was able to learn the names of three of them who've been on the payroll, as well as General Hector Gramajo, General Roberto Matta, two of the top officers, closest US proteges, who've been directly involved in commanding massacres in the Northwest Highlands. Furthermore, there are actual US CIA agents who work directly inside the G-2. I was able to learn the names of two of them, Joe Jacarino and Randy Capister. They provide what's called technical assistance and advice. I was able to reach colonel Alpirez on the phone in Guatemala. He denied being involved in the Devine and Bamaca killings, said the CIA wasn't paying him, but he talked rather extensively about how the CIA essentially helps to run the G-2 with ongoing advice and American advisers right there inside this systematic killing operation. Rose: You recorded this conversation? Nairn: No, I took extensive notes on it. And its not just the CIA. Its the Pentagon, the State Department, and the White House as well. For example, here are some internal State Department records which indicate that during both the Bush and Clinton administrations after there was a supposed cutoff of military aid to Guatemala, the State Department authorized at least 114 separate sales of pistols and rifles to Guatemala. The US military has been planning joint maneuvers with the Guatemalan military this spring. This is an across the board policy and you have to hold the President accountable for that. Rose: Elliot, you were Assistant Secretary of State for Latin American affairs during the Reagan administration. Tell me what you make of this story, what you know about what went on during the Reagan administration and perhaps what you have learned about this story since it broke. Abrams: I may not know as many facts about this as Bob Toricelli does but from what I can see there's a lot less here than meets the eye. The fact that the CIA maintains relationships with intelligence people and military people in Central America and throughout the world is not news. The fact that some of them are pretty unattractive people is not news... That we had an ongoing CIA program in Guatemala at a time there was a military cutoff, you can't do that without a finding, its got to be approved by the House and Senate Intelligence Committees. So one question to ask is: if the intelligence committee's didn't like this why didn't they stop it? Before we start jumping up and down here and saying this is another case of the CIA out of control, here I think I might agree with Mr. Nairn that if this was a Bush and Clinton policy, then lets talk about the policy of the President in both cases, and lets not start talking about a rogue CIA which does not yeat appear to me to exist. Rose: Let me just ask you a hypothetical question. Would you as an assistant secretary of state for Latin American affairs, if you found out that our government was paying a man in the Guatemalan military after it learned that he had been implicated in the assassination of an American or someone married to an American , would you be outraged?... Abrams: I would certainly be outraged in the Devine case which looked like the cold blooded murder of an innocent American. The notion that we would continue to employ such a person would give him and others in the Guatemalan military the sense that we just didn't care about the killing of American citizens. The Bamaca case is a

[CTRL] Fw: An Undersea Narco Navy?
- - A Sub Greater Than Its Parts - -There are two distinct, mutually exclusive reactions one can have to the newsthat Colombian drug runners were building a 100-foot-long submarine capable ofshipping 200 tons of cocaine to America.To the drug warriors it is proof positive that their actions are turning upthe heat on the narcos. Why else would the smugglers take such extraordinarysteps to slip the anti-drug gauntlet that rings the US? Keep the pressure upand the coke supply line will dry up.The alternative view is that a sub being built 7,500 feet up in the Andes is aclear sign that the Drug War cannot be won. The resources required to evenattempt such a thing are immense. But the truly rare thing is the will neededto attempt the task. The will in turn, is a product of the huge reward thatwould flow from success.There is nothing the drug warriors can do to diminish the reward that awaitsthe person who is able to reliably bring 200 tons of coke to the US. In fact,to the extent the interdiction of other shipments are successful the value ofthe sub cargo only increases.Recent history suggests, however, that right now planners somewhere inWashington are sketching out what it would take to station US Navy subs, onesthat once tracked Soviet missile boats, along the Colombian coastline.Onward, victory. http://www.abcnews.go.com/sections/world/DailyNews/colombia000907.html

[CTRL] EU Confirmed To Be U.S. Intel. Brainchild
-Caveat Lector- ORIGIN OF EUROPEAN UNION CONFIRMED TO BE BRAINCHILD OF U.S. INTELLIGENCE From jvim.com 9-19-00 http://www.seebo.net/eu.html The London Telegraph reported: âDeclassified American government documents show that the US intelligence community ran a campaign in the Fifties and Sixties to build momentum for a united Europe. It funded and directed the European federalist movement. The documents confirm suspicions voiced at the time that America was working aggressively behind the scenes to push Britain into a European state. "One memorandum, dated July 26, 1950, gives instructions for a campaign to promote a fully fledged European parliament. It is signed by Gen William J Donovan, head of the American wartime Office of Strategic Services, precursor of the CIA. The documents were found by Joshua Paul, a researcher at Georgetown University in Washington. They include files released by the US National Archives. Washington's main tool for shaping the European agenda was the American Committee for a United Europe, created in 1948. The chairman was Donovan, ostensibly a private lawyer by then. The vice-chairman was Allen Dulles, the CIA director in the Fifties.â The board included Walter Bedell Smith, the CIA's first director, and a roster of ex-OSS figures and officials who moved in and out of the CIA. The documents show that ACUE financed the European Movement, the most important federalist organization in the post-war years. In 1958, for example, it provided 53.5 per cent of the movement's funds. The European Youth Campaign, an arm of the European Movement, was wholly funded and controlled by Washington. The Belgian director, Baron Boel, received monthly payments into a special account. When the head of the European Movement, Polish-born Joseph Retinger, bridled at this degree of American control and tried to raise money in Europe, he was quickly reprimanded. The leaders of the European Movement - Retinger, the visionary Robert Schuman and the former Belgian prime minister Paul-Henri Spaak - were all treated as hired hands by their American sponsors. The US role was handled as a covert operation. ACUE's funding came from the Ford and Rockefeller foundations as well as business groups with close ties to the US government. The head of the Ford Foundation, ex-OSS officer Paul Hoffman, doubled as head of ACUE in the late Fifties. The State Department also played a role. A memo from the European section, dated June 11, 1965, advises the vice-president of the European Economic Community, Robert Marjolin, to pursue monetary union by stealth. It recommends suppressing debate until the point at which âadoption of such proposals would become virtually inescapableâ.â A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

Re: [CTRL] Fw: St. John's Wort as Effective as Antidepressant Drug 9/17/00
-Caveat Lector- I've seen this report before; it appears legitimate. Now to the conspiracy connections: first, ALL of the big pharmaceutical firms have their own lines of "natural" remedies either on the shelves now or ready to go. Second, consider the Codex Alimentarius factor--will natural/herbal remedies still be allowed when the entire planet has come under the Codex? I suspect that the NWO, or rather the faction of it that's pushing the Codex, favors synthesized medicines over herbal ones, partly because there is less potential risk to endangered species and ecosystems, especially in the tropical rain forests. - Original Message - From: "Amelia" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 20, 2000 11:54 AM Subject: [CTRL] Fw: St. John's Wort as Effective as Antidepressant Drug 9/17/00 -Caveat Lector- Let's see--I am supposed to announce whether or not I believe this.

Remember if you post you face the same possibility of demands for facts and proof, etc. It is the nature of the game, but one must remember that there is no mandate to kkep a running debate going forever, so plan your battles carefully and only respond where you feel prepared to continue, otherwise maybe it is best to let it ride.

-Caveat Lector- FYI, not necessarily representative of my own beliefs June - Original Message - Naples Saint's Blood Liquefies, Citizens Relieved Updated 8:12 AM ET September 20, 2000 NAPLES, Italy (Reuters) - The substance believed by many Neapolitans to be the dried blood of their city's patron, Saint Gennaro, liquefied right on schedule Tuesday. Clergymen held aloft the powdery substance in its glass vial as thousands of the faithful gathered in the southern city's cathedral, and after about an hour of prayers they displayed the vial again, its contents liquefied. The substance usually turns to liquid twice a year -- on September 19, the saint's feast day, and on the first Saturday in May. Some Neapolitans, traditionally very superstitious, fear disaster may strike the city if the blood of the fourth-century martyr does not turn to liquid. Disaster has struck at least five times after the blood failed to liquefy, including in November 1980 when some 3,000 people died in a massive earthquake that struck southern Italy. Scientists have confirmed that the substance inside the closed vial is blood but cannot explain why it regularly turns to liquid.

(Reuters) - More than ten tons of cocaine valued by authorities at $125 million was confiscated from a transport truck in what Arkansas authorities said on Tuesday was the largest cocaine seizure in the state's history. "We weren't in a position to make public the details until today," Randy Ort, a spokesman for the Arkansas Department of Transportation, said of Monday's seizure. Ort said state highway policemen were inspecting a tractor-trailer rig on Interstate 30 near Hope, Arkansas, when they uncovered processed cocaine hidden in a shipment of cantaloupes. Twelve thousand dollars in cash was also found in the truck. The truck driver and a passenger, both believed to be Oklahoma residents, were arrested and jailed in the town of Hope. Bond for the driver was set at $2 million, while bond for the passenger was set at one million. "They've lost somebody a lot of money," Ort said. "They're probably safer in jail than anywhere else."

A VISITOR FROM THE PAST I had a dream the other night, I didn't understand, A figure walking through the mist with flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed, He took off his three cornered hat, and speaking low, he said: "We fought a revolution to secure our liberty. Bullshit #1- The Founding Finaglers got a minority of traitors to fight against their home country and their own loyal countrymen so that they, not the the Brits could divert the wealth of of the colonies into their own pockets. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. Bullshit #2- The Shays rebellion was a rebellion against the revolutionary oligarchy. Common soldiers mounted attacks on the Continental Congress in Philadelphia forcing " our heroes " to flee across the river to Princeton N.J. These rebellions FORCED our glorious Founding Finaglers to concede to the common soldiers ( as misrepresented by the ghost in this silly poem )a Bill of Rights. The defeat of Shays' rebellion marked the end of the possibility of democratic rights for all. Even those who fought the British. There were MANY such small rebellions before and AFTER the revolution. By 1760 there had been 18 rebellions aimed at overthrowing COLONIAL GOVERNMENTS. The rich oligarchs introduced property qualifications to disenfranchise the poor, and secure privilege for themselves politically. In other words, they passed laws that said only the rich could vote. The new Americans fought for their democratic and economic rights against the very men who wrote the constitution. The wealthy ruling elites of their time. George Washington was the richest man in the colonies. The Bill Gates of his day. The land stealing, slave holding, merchant, oligarchs. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and the home of the brave. Bullshit #3- Who can take this silly drivel seriously?

Emerson: It's Not Just About 'Assault Weapons' Anymore by Mike Dillon in THE BLUE PRESS The Constitution and Bill of Rights DOES NOT protect your right to own or possess firearms! The Second Amendment only allows you to use a firearm while in the National Guard! That is the publicly stated position of the Clinton-Gore Justice Department. This position was not whispered in some back-room meeting--it was stated in open court in a case now before the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals. The appellate court is hearing the government's appeal of U.S. v. Emerson, a Texas case resulting from a divorce action that resulted in Dr. Timothy Joe Emerson being indicted by a federal grand jury. Emerson was in violation of the Lautenberg Amendment--the local court had placed a restraining order against him, making it against federal law for him to possess a firearm. In April 1999, U.S. District Court Judge Sam Cummings ruled that this law was an unconstitutional infringement of the "individual right to bear arms." Cummings set aside the indictment, and in doing so, struck a grievous blow to the gun prohibitionists. Of course, the government appealed the decision. Now, if Cummings' decision is upheld on appeal, not only will the Lautenberg Amendment be invalidated, hundreds of gun laws will be in jeopardy of being struck down. We're all holding our breath awaiting the Court of Appeals' ruling, especially since the most significant bit of information to come out of the case is the on-record position of "our" government on the Second Amendment. The following exchange is from the transcript of the oral arguments: Judge William L. Garwood: "You are saying that the Second Amendment is consistent with a position that you can take guns away from the public? You can restrict ownership of rifles, pistols and shotguns from all people? Is that the position of the United States?" Assistant US Attorney William B. Mateja: "Yes." Garwood: "Is it the position of the United States that persons who are not in the National Guard are afforded no protections under the Second Amendment?" Mateja: "Exactly." Mateja then argued that even membership in the National Guard would not qualify an individual to possess firearms. Garwood: "Membership in the National Guard isn't enough? What else is needed?" Mateja: "The weapon in question must be used IN the National Guard." That pretty much disqualifies your Model 70, your Model 700, your Marlin 336, your Perazzi, your Weatherby, your Anshutz, or your Merkel from protection under the Second Amendment, now doesn't it? And you thought the government was only after those nasty high-capacity handguns and "assault weapons." But you didn't have nay of those, so you weren't worried. For the terminally clueless, let me spell it out -- IT'S LONG PAST TIME TO START WORRYING. IT'S TIME TO ACT! Your deer rifle and your duck gun are on the same "to-confiscate" list as all handguns, "assault" rifles and "sniper" rifles. It makes no difference what your gun looks like, the official position of the Clinton-Gore administration (which will continue under Gore if he's elected) is that YOU have NO right to own it. You can continue to hide in your duck or deer blind and pretend that you're not a target. Keep pretending, right up until that day when the government looks at the roster of hunting licenses (you know, that infamous "list" you don't want to be on by joining the NRA) and comes to your house to confiscate your "thutty-thutty." Oh, you'll fight? You'll give up your gun when they pry it from your cold, dead fingers? Bullshit. If you won't fight now by spending a few bucks on the NRA, why should I believe that you'll be willing to spend your BLOOD later? I don't know about you, but I'd much rather fight to keep them from taking my rights away at the ballot box instead of trying to get them back by fighting in the street. What can you do? First, if you're not already registered, register to vote. Second, join the NRA, today. Third, and most important, tell all your hunting and skeet-shooting buddies that they need to do the same if they want to keep eating pheasant, duck, and venison. This is not just a fight to keep politically incorrect "weapons," it's a fight to keep ALL firearms, AND the freedom our forefathers won with firearms. You MUST pull your head out of the sand (or wherever else you have it) long enough to understand these points: 1. The Emerson case IS going to the Supreme Court. The losing side will appeal and the Supreme Court will ultimately decide the case.
[CTRL] How it's done: Why Nader and Buchanan are not permited to debate.

So after looking up the history of the foundation of the Commision on the Presidential Debates (CDP) at http://www.debates.org/pages/report.html#findings we find that it was created in 1987 after two study groups issued reports recommending this. The first report was done in 1985 by the Center for Strategic and International Studies. We know that their board of trustees has 32 members of which 18 are Council on Foreign Relations members. To see this, compare list of board members of CSIS http://www.csis.org/html/csislead.html with the CFR membership list http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/2807/CFR97list.html The second report was done in 1986 by the Twentieth Century Foundation (formerly the Twentieth Century Fund). We find that the TCF board of trustees http://www.tcf.org/About_TCF/Board_of_Trustees.html has 27 members, of which 12 are Council on Foreign Relations members (compare the TCF trustee list to the CFR list above). I feel that Buchanan and Nader should be included. The Commission on the Presidential Debates was created to exclude people like Nader and Buchanan and to limit the debate to include only those candidates "hand picked" by Council on Foreign Relations members and their rich and powerful friends.

Hubbell. This Office investigated whether Jim and Susan McDougal committed any crimes in connection with Madison Guaranty, CMS, or Whitewater Development by using control of two financial institutions - Madison Guaranty and Madison Bank Trust - to lend money to or for the benefit of Whitewater Development and to pay Whitewater Development financial obligations at a time when the McDougals and the Clintons jointly owned Whitewater Development. In May 1996, Jim and Susan McDougal were convicted in federal court in Arkansas of various crimes involving Madison Guaranty, CMS, and Whitewater Development. According to one federal bank regulatory agency, the failure of Madison Guaranty cost the taxpayers $73 million. [The cost to taxpayers of Madison Guaranty was considerably more than that of the entire special counsel investigation. Since Clinton supporters make much of the latter costs, it is probably inconsistent to refer to the Madison-Whitewater case as a "two-bit land deal."] This Office investigated whether President and Mrs. Clinton knowingly participated in any criminal conduct related to Madison Guaranty, CMS, or Whitewater Development or had any knowledge of such conduct. This Office determined that the evidence was insufficient to prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt that either President or Mrs. Clinton knowingly participated in any criminal conduct involving Madison Guaranty, CMS, or Whitewater Development or knew of such conduct. The evidence relating to their testimony and conduct, in connection with this investigation and other investigations involving the same entities, was also, in the judgment of this Office, insufficient to prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt that either of them committed any criminal offense, including perjury. [The Clintons now fully meet the Democratic Party's standard for holding public office, namely that criminal evidence against them be "insufficient to prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt." Generally speaking under the law, any old crook can be elected to Congress, although the President, in what is becoming a quaint anachronism, still solemnly swears to "faithfully execute" his office and "to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."] The investigation made the following findings and conclusions: This Office investigated whether President Clinton gave knowingly false testimony when he testified in the 1996 trial of Mr. McDougal, Ms. McDougal, and Governor Tucker that he "never borrowed any money from Madison Guaranty," "[n]ever caused anybody to borrow any money for [his] benefit," and "[n]ever ha[d] any personal loan with Madison Guaranty at any time." At Susan McDougal's 1999 trial for criminal contempt and obstruction of justice for her refusal to testify about matters that included an alleged $27,600 Madison Guaranty loan to President Clinton, the government introduced two checks as evidence of the alleged loan. The first check was an actual Madison Guaranty cashier's check, dated November 15, 1982, made out to "Bill Clinton" in the amount of $27,600 that was found, by happenstance, among other Madison Guaranty records in the trunk of a car in July 1997 following a tornado. The second check was a microfilm copy, dated August 1, 1983, from the James B. McDougal Trustee account in the amount of $5,081.82 made out to Madison Guaranty. The latter check was signed by Susan McDougal, and the government presented

-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ Click Here: A HREF="http://www.aci.net/kalliste/"The Home Page of J. Orlin Grabbe/A - Liberal Snake Oil The Cost of Regulating Privacy "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help protect your privacy." WASHINGTON -- Privacy advocates who successfully transformed such previously arcane matters as credit bureau databases and DoubleClick cookies into mainstream concerns are close to winning a truly epic battle. After years of agitating by liberal groups like the American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Privacy Information Center, both Democrats and Republicans are suddenly expressing their support for sweeping new regulations of U.S. businesses. Yet schemes like a federal privacy commission -- suggested this year by a bipartisan duo in Congress -- don't exactly cheer free-market organizations, which have been largely silent in this debate so far. In response to increasingly aggressive bills and shifting public opinion, libertarian groups in Washington and elsewhere have begun to quietly gird themselves for an all-out battle in new and unfamiliar terrain. George Mason University's Mercatus Center will hold a privacy event on Tuesday populated with laissez-faire economists, while the Competitive Enterprise Institute is about to publish a book titled The Future of Financial Privacy, which blasts private-sector regulations. "Why did it take so long? Because there are more of 'them' than there are of us -- advocates of liberty and limited government have too many battlements to defend," says David Boaz, vice president of the Cato Institute. The Cato Institute and other like-minded groups generally oppose government regulation of what information firms can and cannot collect, arguing that consumers should make up their own minds instead. Some libertarians also stress the economic benefits of information-sharing by saying it lowers prices. "What the privacy-regulation advocates just don't get is the benefits of information," Boaz says. "There's a positive value to being offered things that will interest you, and it's hardly something to be feared." Sonia Arrison, director of technology policy at the Pacific Research Institute, says her group and others were slow to realize the public impact of their opponents' arguments. "I think libertarians were slow off the mark because they simply couldn't believe that the public could be convinced that government is best in protecting privacy," Arrison said. "Throughout history, government has been one of the biggest violators of privacy, so some libertarians cannot fathom why anyone would think that government should now be trusted to protect it." Last week, former Republican Hill staffer Jim Harper launched a libertarian privacy website, privacilla.org. A half-dozen groups, including the Heritage Foundation and Citizens Against Government Waste, paid small sums to support his effort. Its theme, as described in the title of a report on the site: The Government Sector -- Greatest Menace to Privacy by Far. "I'm not at all certain that EPIC et al. captured public opinion so much as correctly assessed the public's appreciation for anonymity," says Erick Gustafson of Citizens for a Sound Economy, which is chaired by former White House counsel C. Boyden Gray, who served during former President George Bush's term. "An individual has free-floating anxiety about others knowing too much about him or her -- a general predilection toward paranoia -- but individuals don't care enough to (take their business elsewhere)," Gustafson says. Business-world allies of Citizens for a Sound Economy can be notoriously fickle. Last month the group condemned a speech by Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina in which she called for government regulation. Groused CSE: "Privacy legislation will only serve to empower government at the expense of liberty." Gustafson says that another useful tactic is to compile a list of government privacy misdeeds -- a move that's consistent with libertarians' general focus on limiting state power. Liberal groups also oppose government surveillance such as Carnivore, the Clipper Chip, and mandatory backdoors in encryption software. But they see corporations as the real -- and growing -- problem. Marc Rotenberg, director of EPIC and a careful student of privacy trends, says: "I don't doubt that government is a real threat. But I think increasingly the tools of surveillance will come from the private sector. Things have changed a lot since the days of Clipper." Adds EPIC General Counsel David Sobel: "I think that libertarian focus on the government to the exclusion of the private sector is short-sighted, because increasingly what we're seeing is that the government is (obtaining information from) the private sector collectors of information." Cato's Boaz replies: "We need strong protections against government access to information about individuals, including strong protections for
