Abusive Priest Flees Island - Facing Immigration Charges, Brett Hurriedly Quits St. Maarten 9/19/02 By Eric Rich "Abusive priest Laurence F.X. Brett has left the Caribbean island where he lived secretively for nearly a decade, fleeing just days before local police descended on his lagoon-side villa. The authorities on St. Maarten, reacting to a report in The Courant, had planned to detain the disgraced priest on immigration violations while they determined whether U.S. prosecutors intended to extradite him on charges of sexually abusing children, a local official said."

WASHINGTON (Sept. 18) - Intelligence agencies failed to anticipate terrorists flying planes into buildings despite a dozen clues in the years before the Sept. 11 attacks that Osama bin Laden or others might use aircraft as bombs, a congressional investigator told lawmakers Wednesday as they began public hearings into the attacks. Just a month before the attacks, intelligence agencies were told of a possible bin Laden plot to hit the U.S. Embassy in Kenya or crash a plane into it. The preliminary report by Eleanor Hill, staff director of the joint House and Senate intelligence committee investigation of the terrorist strike, showed authorities had many more warnings about possible attacks than were previously disclosed. The reports were generally vague and uncorroborated. None specifically predicted the Sept. 11 attacks. But collectively the reports ''reiterated a consistent and critically important theme: Osama bin Laden's intent to launch terrorist attacks inside the United States,'' Hill said.

How George W. Bush made his millions
By Joseph Kay 1 August 2002
Much has been written over the past month about President George W. Bush's actions while at Harken Energy. This is, indeed, a significant history: in the early 1990s Bush made hundreds of thousands of dollars in a deal that reeks of the same insider trading and accounting fraud the president now claims to oppose. (See "On eve of Wall Street speech: Bush's past business dealings come back to haunt him," 9 July, 2002).
However, the media has paid far less attention to what Bush did with the $850,000 he made through the sale of Harken stock options and the manner in which he transformed that windfall into the $15 million that now constitutes the larger part of his personal fortune. If anything, this story is even more revealing.
