[CTRL] Here Comes Da Judge ...
-Caveat Lector- From SalonMagazine.CoM Here comes the judge Chief Justice William Rehnquist's writings on impeachment contain good news for President Clinton. BY JEFF STEIN | With the momentum for impeachment rolling like a freight train through the House of Representatives, few people seem to have noticed that the Democrats have the capacity to pull the emergency brake early in any Senate trial. If Chief Justice William Rehnquist doesn't beat them to it. It's clear that by voting along party lines, the Democrats have far more than enough votes to prevent the conviction of President Clinton, which would require 67 votes, or two-thirds of the Senate. The Republicans have only 55 votes, the Democrats 45 -- 11 more than they need to block the Republicans' every move. End of story. Or, as the lawyers put it, impeachment will be moot. "The Washington Post is not likely to see the wisdom of the arithmetic until after the House votes," a conservative federal judge noted wryly in a conversation over the weekend. One of a handful of votes on procedural issues in the Senate, he forecast, would demonstrate the Democrats' strength, at which point the Republicans might as well throw down their guns. "I'm quite astonished no one has pointed that out," said the judge, a Republican appointee who allowed -- strictly off the record -- that "I have an even more visceral dislike for Al Gore than I do Bill Clinton. Clinton wants to be my buddy, he'll do anything to be my friend. But Al Gore is a liberal who believes all those things." But a potentially more formidable obstacle awaiting the Republicans in the Senate, he suggested, lies in the person of Rehnquist, who would oversee a trial of Clinton by virtue of the rules laid out in the Constitution. Rehnquist, appointed to the court by President Nixon, revealed a disdain for impeachment in his little-noticed (until now) and out-of-print 1992 book, "Grand Inquests: The Historic Impeachments of Justice Samuel Chase and President Andrew Johnson." Chase was a Supreme Court judge who incurred the wrath of President Thomas Jefferson and the Federalists through some inflammatory court decisions and by openly campaigning for Jefferson's enemies in a Maryland Senate race. Rehnquist applauds the Senate's 1805 decision to acquit Chase because it helped insure the independence of the judiciary from political meddling. But the chief justice equally admires the Senate's acquittal of Johnson for not undermining the authority of future presidents. Johnson, of course, rose to the presidency upon the assassination of Abraham Lincoln in April 1865, just as the Confederacy was surrendering. He promptly set about blocking abolitionist Republicans' plans for "reconstructing" the South, however, earning their rage. When he fired a Cabinet member over the express forbiddance of Congress, the House moved to impeach him even before charges were drawn up. "Grand Inquests" makes clear that Rehnquist disapproves of such rushes to judgment, although the judge predictably couches his disapproval in judicious language. The impeachment of Johnson, especially, would have been all wrong, he signals. "To the traditional weapons of Congress in opposing presidential actions with which it disagrees -- refusing to confirm appointments, overriding vetoes, demanding information from the executive -- would have been added yet another one: the threat of impeachment," Rehnquist writes. As if to foreshadow Clinton's difficulties, Rehnquist explains that Johnson's conviction would have opened the door to frivolous impeachment attempts against subsequent presidents. "A specific violation of the law or breach of duty would ... not have to be a serious one involving moral culpability. And once such a dereliction had been found, other charges of a far more nebulous nature could be added [to an impeachment bill]." And that would chill any president's attempt at political risk taking. "Future presidents of one party facing a Congress controlled by the opposition party could well think twice about vetoing bills with which they disagreed, and about resisting the inevitable efforts by Congress to poach on the executive domain," Rehnquist observed. By acquitting Johnson and, 60 years earlier, Chase, the Senate ensured that "impeachment would not be a referendum on the public official's performance in office," Rehnquist adds approvingly. "Instead, it would be a judicial type of inquiry in which specific charges were made ... or ... were proven." And, by the way, the Republicans who acquitted Johnson made clear that it was not any "technical violation of the law that would suffice," Rehnquist writes. The House's slim Republican majority makes Clinton's impeachment this week nearly a foregone conclusion, putting the president's fate in the hands of Rehnquist and the Senate. There, the 55 Republicans and 45 Democrats will face immediate decisions on such pivotal questions as the standard of proof for conviction,

-Caveat Lector- From SalonMagazine.CoM marriage among the Mullahs The directors of "Divorce Iranian Style" speak out about unhappy marriages, Islamic law and the rights of women. BY CYNTHIA JOYCE | The scene is a small courtroom in Tehran. The cast is a steady stream of veiled women who have come here in an attempt to change their lives. There's the 16-year-old girl who wants to leave her 38-year-old husband and go back to school; the mother of two grown children who wants to punish her husband of 30 years for beating her; the young mother who wants to leave her husband for another man but doesn't want to give up her children. Three very different circumstances, with seemingly one solution: divorce. Or maybe not. As the captivating documentary "Divorce Iranian Style" shows, Islamic law makes it almost impossible for women who want a divorce to get one without the consent of their husbands. And because men risk losing their financial security if they divorce, they often choose to stay married -- even if their wives make their lives a living hell. If, however, a woman can prove to the family courts that her husband is either impotent or insane, she stands a chance in the courts. It's this provision that makes "Divorce Iranian Style" a fascinating and often highly entertaining film, as we watch these women use a combination of histrionics and shrewd tactics to demand rights they don't have. One woman insists her husband is crazy because he won't let her use the phone, crying to the judge at one moment and cheekily grinning at the camera the next. Another whispers to the judge that her husband hasn't touched her since the wedding, and expresses her shame at having to admit this in public. There is a tragic dimension to each of their stories, though none of the women see themselves as victims. Nor do filmmakers Kim Longinotto and Ziba Mir-Hosseini see them as victims, but rather as pioneers in a legal system caught between religious tradition and modern reality. Salon recently spoke with Longinotto and Mir-Hosseini at New York's Film Forum, where "Divorce Iranian Style" made its East Coast premiere. Are most women aware, when they first marry, of their legal status and rights? Mir-Hosseini: It's really difficult to generalize. In 1979, when the revolution happened, something like 68 percent of the population lived in villages. Now somewhere around 70 percent live in the city. So Iranian society has changed a lot. But in my own marriage, my second marriage, I was 28, I had just finished my Ph.D. and I fell in love. I was very educated, and it was my choice to marry. But I wanted the right to divorce -- a woman can stipulate in the marriage contract to have the right to divorce. My husband said, "No, no, how can you think about divorce now when we are so much in love? If you want a divorce, do you think I am the kind of man to refuse you?" I trusted him. That's why I signed the marriage contract. So many women like me start their life on the assumption that there is total equality and harmony. I thought, this law will not apply to us, we have a different understanding. But when the relationship broke down, he refused to give me a divorce -- he just wanted to keep me in a state of limbo. At the time of marriage, I thought that it was based on equality. But when it came to the divorce, I realized it wasn't there. One of the most shocking moments in the film is when the judge orders a woman to win her husband back by making herself more attractive. It seems like such an absurd suggestion, and yet I'm sure her reply -- "Why should I make more compromises; I've been compromising for 30 years?" -- would resonate with plenty of Western women as well. Mir-Hosseini: It's always that way, everywhere in the world. The more women compromise, the more the other side expects. And yet women are very much valued in Iranian society. It might sound very strange and bizarre, but they are. Especially if they are professional women, they are very much treated with respect. Women are very much loved and valued as daughters -- that is where they get their strength. After my mother died, and everything collapsed, I realized that she was the one who was holding everyone together. In all the cases that we saw, the marriages broke down why? Because these men did not accept those strong women. They want to control them within the family. So these women [in the film] do not put up with that. When there is harmony and balance, I would say marriage in Iran is egalitarian in practice, though not in a legal sense. Women have different spheres of action, but they have a great deal of freedom within that. And that is where these women get their strength. There is a confidence, a soft and inner confidence, which comes from their religious belief, and from the way that the society sees them, and the way that they see their rights in Islam.

[CTRL] Brits Told To Stockpile Food, US Govt Mistrusts and Hides Y2K Preparatioin
-Caveat Lector- I have been researching this issue for over a year. It is apparent that the US Govt has taken the position that The People cannot be trusted. The govt has a martial law plan in place, unfortunately the real remediation plan is F.O.F. (fix on failure), control the population through martial law, and discourage the population from planning ahead. It is the old P.A.N.G. (People Are No Good) syndrome at work. This is further proof that we are governed by Elitists, Manipulators, and Self Serving Politico - Sociopaths. flw BRITISH GOVERNMENT WARNS CITIZENS TO STOCKPILE FOOD Some Y2K leadership finally appears from a bureaucrat: Gwyneth Flower, the head of the British government's millennium bug Taskforce 2000, has now advised people to plan ahead. She's quoted in the story as saying, "We are talking about people having a judicious amount of surplus food in their kitchen cupboards." FLOWER CALLS PLANS 'SENSIBLE' "Anyone sensible would plan for this. Because we don't want to see panic buying in the weeks leading up to next Christmas, consumers should think about this in advance," Flower said. Detroit News link at: http://detnews.com/1998/technology/9812/14/12140186.htm Remember that in the United States, government officials are calling preparedness, "disruptive" and one person from the GartnerGroup calls preparations, "unnatural." There has been absolutely no government-sponsored call for the public to prepare here in the United States. And actions that are considered, "sensible" in the U.K. are considered "unnatural" in the United States. What's going on here? WE'VE ELECTED A BUNCH OF COWARDS An utter lack of leadership, that's what's going on here. Our government leaders are scared silly about acknowledging the Y2K problem is real. So instead of demonstrating real leadership, they'll wait until the problem gets *really* bad, when almost nobody has a realistic chance of actually being able to get prepared. Then they'll claim they had no way of knowing it was this bad. It's classic bureaucratic behavior: keep the information from the American people, then blame "radicals" for the panic. With the U.K. now calling on its citizens to hoard food, and with the Canadian government now pondering Martial Law (see story below), the United States government has done virtually nothing. Clinton is all but silent on the issue, and Congress is too busy Impeaching Clinton to look at Y2K. At the same time, John Koskinen, Clinton's Y2K czar, offers no reasonable preparation advice for American citizens, working instead to "alleviate fear" rather than tell people the truth about what they should be doing right now. THE GREATEST GOVERNMENTAL BLUNDER IN HISTORY Y2K is shaping up to be exactly that: the worst mistake the American government has ever made. While they squabble over impeachment and political power, the infrastructure of government threatens to collapse all around them. Only Senator Bennett has spoken loudly about what's going on here, and even he has recently tamed-down his rhetoric, likely out of concern of "scaring" people. Everybody is afraid of scaring people. But they're not afraid of leaving people in the dark. Why is that? PAPER SAYS, 'START HOARDING NOW' This Observer report says, "Britons have been warned to stock up with two weeks' emergency food rations in anticipation of millennium bug-related shortages." It goes on to mention that people should prepare for the worst-case scenario: "In an unprecedented statement indicating the level of panic in official circles, the Department of Trade and Industry-funded task force, charged with minimising potential damage caused by the bug, has said that contingency planning for a worst-case scenario should start as soon as possible." In this story, Flower is quoted as saying, "Because we don't want to see panic buying in the weeks leading up to next Christmas, consumers should think about this in advance." THIS IS PRECISELY THE POINT CLINTON DOESN'T UNDERSTAND Why can't U.S. officials get this? This quote from Flower hits the nail on the head: you have to warn people EARLY and encourage preparedness actions EARLY in order to avoid the panic. Clinton and Koskinen don't see it that way. They think that covering it up for as long as possible is the best strategy. Delay, delay, delay. They apparently hope the problem can be covered up indefinitely. WHY DID FLOWER ISSUE THE WARNING? According to the story, "...it has now emerged that large numbers of government, utilities and corporate computer systems that control every aspect of our lives will not be ready for the turn of the century." Again, that's one more Y2K fact that still is not being acknowledged here in the United States. The line from Koskinen: all government services will be just fine. There's no need to worry.

[CTRL] CIVIL RIGHTS FOR EVERY ONE
-Caveat Lector- If you have friends in the Columbus Ohio area, you might want to have them relay this letter to the concearned paties. (Copy and distribute to all Ohio news sources) (Fax to civil rights law firms in Columbus Ohio) Here in Columbus Ohio, the politicians just gave insurance benefits to homosexuals with out even a vote. (Some of the info below is crude) Public speaking is weird. Kind of like someone being able to kill cut some one's throat with out scorn, but blurting out the words describing they cut another's throat is wrong. It has become a sick society when it is wrong to describe what someone does, but there is nothing wrong in tha act they are engaged in. Take a look at some of the hot videos they buy. Homos can stick their penis up each other's rectum and then suck each other and that is a "right", but one who just describes exactly what they did is some kind of evil bigot? DOMESTIC PARTNERS Such insurance was established because men were usually the providers of the household and women stayed home with the children. While children may be an emotional asset, they are a finical burden. Even if a woman has a job, they still have to pay to keep the kids and a baby sitter. There is no way a government can track all male/female partners to know what is happening with kids. Companies began to offer these benefits because of the burden of A FAMILY KIDS ! Unlike hets, homos do not have kids, there is no reason why one of them must stay home ... HOMOS with the same jobs MAKE MORE MONEY then het couples, they do not have the same finical burdens. Insurance/benefits was not established because of any romance/love between people. If this were a fact every couple who claimed to "love" each other would be able to force employers to give them benefits. Will employers cease giving benefits to those who no longer love each or those who just got married for convenience? A domestic partner has nothing to do with love or sex. Everyone living in the same household, 2 or 10 is a domestic partner. DO HETS GET INSURANCE BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THEIR SEX IN BED? Then will Columbus take away every married couple's insurance IF they are no longer having sex? Is Columbus going to give insurance to lesbians because they lick each other between the legs? Is Columbus going to give insurance to homos because they shove their penis up each other's rectum? IF the nature of sex or lack of it has nothing to do with Columbus granting insurance to homos, then what is it? DOMESTIC PARTNERS Everyone living in the same house is a domestic partner. If people are going to get insurance and benefits because they are domestic partners, then : * A daughter living with her mother * A man living with his brother * A daughter living with her sister* A couple of friends living together * Two people sharing the same home just to make ends meet? EVERY EMPLOYEE WORKING FOR COLUMBUS LIVING WITH ANYONE ELSE, MUST GET THE SAME EQUAL DOMESTIC PARTNER BENEFITS AS HOMOSEXUALS! Let's begin to put this issue in front of every lawyer in Columbus and begin class action suites to ensure that EVERY DOMESTIC PARTNER gets equal pay and equal benefits. To start this action have someone in the Columbus area put an ad in the paper for all domestic partners who want to be involved in a class action law suite to get equal benefits for their domestic partners. While you are gathering people to join the suite, begin to fax a letter similar to every civil rights law firm in Columbus... at least until you find an interested firm. After you get your body of people together, take them to ensure that they are compensated and gain the same equal benefits as homosexuals.

Re: [CTRL] Wag the Dog (Again)? (fwd.)
-Caveat Lector- Well, you might be right. As an example of the resources available to you, the following is provided from: http://www.cadre.maxwell.af.mil/airchronicles/apj/hurley.html SADDAM HUSSEIN AND IRAQI AIR POWER: JUST HAVING AN AIR FORCE ISN'T ENOUGH 1st Lt Matthew M. Hurley, USAF BAGHDAD arose early on 17 January 1991, rudely awakened by the opening shots of an air campaign unparalleled in history for its scope, intensity, and overwhelming success. Surprisingly, despite the ferocity of Operation Desert Storm, effective Iraqi opposition never materialized. During the 43-day campaign, only 41 coalition aircraft were lost in combat, all to surface-to-air missile or antiaircraft artillery fire.1 For its part, the Iraqi air force (IQAF) offered only feeble resistance. The IQAF shot down no coalition aircraft in air-to-air combat, conducted no successful air strikes against coalition positions, and put only a handful of planes into the air at any given time. Where was the IQAF? Why didn't this air force, perhaps the largest in the region, put up a decent fight in defense of its homeland?2 The answer may be found in the policies of Iraqi president Saddam Hussein. Since assuming power, Saddam--driven by a deep-rooted fear of military coups--has systematically undermined the IQAF's capability in order to maintain and maximize his personal rule; he therefore bears the responsibility for its failure. This article discusses the dangers Saddam perceived in a capable air force, his notions regarding the purpose and value of air power, and the subsequent measures he took to control the IQAF. It then shows that those policies led to the gross deficiencies in training, motivation, skill, and employment that lost the air war for Iraq. Saddam's Fear of the IQAF Saddam regards the IQAF with an extreme caution that is rooted in modern Iraqi history. Since Great Britain nominally granted Iraq its independence in 1932, no Iraqi regime has been fully secure from the threat of a military takeover, and no element of the armed forces has played as prominent a role in Iraqi politics as has the air force. During modern Iraq's first military coup in 1936, rebellious pilots established the pattern for IQAF involvement by bombing the office of the prime minister.3 Similarly, the air force inaugurated the short-lived Baathist regime of 1963 with an attack against the Defense Ministry in Baghdad.4 Key IQAF personnel or units led further attempts in 1965 and 1966, and two years later the air force backed the Baath party's second, successful bid to secure the reins of state.5 But the IQAF apparently grew dissatisfied with the government it helped to install. Following Saddam's ascension to power, coup attempts sponsored or supported by the air force continued, even at the height of the Iran-Iraq War.6 More recent attempts, including a scheme in 1988 to shoot down the presidential jetliner and a reported plot in 1989 to bomb Saddam's reviewing stand during a parade, highlight a danger that seemed unlikely to abate on its own.7 Besides corrupting the armed forces to the point that "political intrigue became more important to the officer corps than military professionalism,"8 constant military meddling in Iraqi politics has led to a fundamental characteristic of Saddam's rule. Frankly, he fears his own armed forces--especially the IQAF--and is determined to preclude their involvement in future coup attempts. This might explain why the Republican Guard and the Baath party militia, both established primarily to counterbalance the regular armed forces, are equipped with antiaircraft weapons (French Rolands and Crotales), which are generally considered superior to the Soviet-made weapons of the IQAF's Air Defense Command.9 Value of the IQAF Though troubled by the IQAF's rebellious tendencies, Saddam also recognized in air power a potentially powerful asset. Established in 1931 to subdue dissident tribesmen, the IQAF had proven useful to the British and pre-Baathist Iraqi governments in their quest to maintain central control over troublesome regions and disaffected groups.10 Despite his misgivings regarding the IQAF, Saddam relished the prospect of bombing wayward Iraqis into submission. In fact, during three major campaigns--in 1968-69, 1974-75, and 1987-88--the IQAF was employed against Iraq's independence-minded Kurdish minority, at times using chemical weapons to suppress the Kurds.11 When necessary, Saddam has also subjected other opposition groups to air attack, as demonstrated by an IQAF strike against militant Iraqi Shiites in 1987.12 As a potential asset as well as a threat, the IQAF warranted special treatment from Saddam's regime. He wanted an air force that he could employ or emasculate, as he saw fit, to preserve his rule--which meant that "most of the time it was effectively powerless."13 His efforts to that effect began even before he assumed the presidency in 1979.

[CTRL] Another Free Energy Cover-up: The Story of Dennis Lee
-Caveat Lector- Another Free Energy Cover-up The Story of Dennis Lee By Alison David Better World Technology P.O. Box 653 McAfee, NJ 07428, USA Published in Nexus Magazine, Australia June-July 1994 Issue Pages 46-49 and 69 In 1987 Dennis Lee discovered he could make free electricity a rather astounding discovery for the son of two migrant farm workers. The possibilities this discovery presented both elated him and frightened him. He was elated that there was a simple solution to the pollution and energy problems that were destroying the balance of nature on our planet, and shaken at the size of the discovery he had made. Free, independently produced energy meant people no longer had to be hooked up to the central power lines. It meant no more offshore drilling for oil, or oil spills that were killing the oceans. It meant no more dependence on foreign oil. It meant water could be pumped into desert lands dying of drought, and crops could be grown to eliminate famine. It meant no more electric line leakage that causes a general depletion in health as well as cancers; no more greenhouse effect, air pollution, toxic waste or water pollution. It meant the health of the planet and its people could be restored. It meant a boom for the economy and new jobs for millions of unemployed workers. Since everything runs on energy, the implications to the economies of the developing as well as industrialised nations, of clean and simple, 'no cost- to-produce' energy was overwhelming. The responsibility of such a discovery was frightening. But, what was even more frightening was the response that Dennis Lee would encounter when he attempted to bring the technology that could accomplish all this to the people. His story began in 1985 when Dennis Lee introduced his Super Heat Pump in his native state of Washington on a risk-free 'system-for-savings' program. The heat pump was so efficient it could save 70-80% of heat and hot water costs, and when his marketing program proved to be highly successful, the central utility was not pleased with the competition. They encouraged the Attorney General's Office to bring a suit against Lee's company. The baseless lawsuit was an attempt to discredit him and the technology. Subsequently, his factory was broken into virtually every night, The media splashed bad publicity across the papers regularly, his financial backers were encouraged to pull out, and the Attorney General's Office encouraged his customers to back out of the deal. Papers stolen from his factory turned up in the possession of the Deputy District Attorney. Although it was in no one's interest (except perhaps the utilities) to put his company out of business, the Attorney General's Office attempted to do just that. Dennis Lee's customers signed petitions asking the Attorney General's Office to stop 'protecting' them and dismiss the suit, or at the very least allow him to be able to perform on their contracts. Despite the ridiculous civil suit that required his company to do what it was already doing, and the overwhelming obstacles placed in his way, Lee's company overcame. When it was obvious that the company could not be destroyed using these tactics, other methods followed. A hired plant solicited enough unrest to get an involuntary bankruptcy filed, although the company was in good financial shape at the time. When Lee proved he could still turn things around, the harassers arranged a hostile takeover of the company. Lee, who once believed that fascist tactics belonged to other governments, discovered his first hard lesson in the 'just-us' system: that here in America, law enforcement agencies are often used to protect powerful money interests and not the interests of the citizens. He quietly left to pick up the pieces elsewhere. He moved to Boston to continue his efforts with a company associate. It was here, less than one year after the utilities first destroyed his efforts, that he discovered he could make 'free electricity' using the technology of the Super Heat Pump. How ironic, after they had forced him out of business, that he would discover a technology that could put them out of business. He substantiated the discovery with three scientists of tremendous experience. One was a professor at MIT, one was an ex-Department of Defense scientist and an inventor himself, and the other was an ex-Boeing plant supervisor who had been an electrical engineer for 40 years. They each independently confirmed that the concept was sound. A demonstration was put together to prove the concept worked. Dennis wrote letters to the Department of Energy and every Congressman in Washington to explain his discovery and invite them to a demonstration of 'free electricity'. He wrote a letter to President Carter, the
[CTRL] Y2K Fear May Trigger Early Panic
-Caveat Lector- Technology Headlines Monday December 14 10:18 AM ET Fear Of Year 2000 Computer Bug May Trigger Early Panic By Neil Winton, Science and Technology Correspondent LONDON (Reuters) - Even if the ``millennium bomb'' does not explode in the world's computers just over a year from now, 1999 is likely to see rising panic as people take precautions against computer failure triggered by the year 2000. Experts say the most vulnerable countries include Japan, France, Russia and Brazil and the most vulnerable sectors are utilities, especially power generation. ``Next year we will see periods of calm broken by occasional news stories predicting computer systems failures,'' said Ross Anderson of Cambridge University's Computer Security Research Center. ``My own feeling is that around August or September panic will start, with hoarding of food and bank notes. Then the whole thing becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.'' The time bomb has trivial origins. In the early days of computing, programs saved what was then precious space by abbreviating years to the last two digits. They knew this could cause problems at the turn of the century because computers would read ``00'' as ``1900'' rather than ``2000'' and crash or spew out flawed data. But they thought these programs would be history by then as technology raced ahead. They were wrong. Now the fear is that old data systems carrying the millennium bomb or bug could trigger disasters around the world in everything from defense, transport and telecommunications to energy and financial services. As 1999 progresses, early trigger dates are likely to provide sneak previews of the chaos that may hit as clocks strike midnight on Dec. 31. The first is Jan. 1, 1999. Programs used in some accounting systems operate a rolling year ahead as they set renewal dates for insurance premiums or bank loans and may crash when they reach out beyond Jan. 1, 2000. Margaret Joachim, Year 2000 coordinator at data processing services company Electronic Data Systems Corp. (NYSE:EDS - news), says there are other dates next year that might trigger computer failure. ``April 9, 1999, the 99th day of the year, and Sept. 9, 1999, which might be recorded as 9-9-99. This is because programmers often used nines as a cutoff for a program. A row of nines meant 'don't do this anymore,''' Joachim said. The world is in differing states of readiness. Information technology consultancy Gartner Group says the United States is best prepared, followed by Canada, Australia, South Africa, Israel and Britain. At the bottom of the list is Brazil, the world's eighth largest economy and a big producer of industrial components, commodities and grains. Brazil is unlikely to be able to confine problems within its borders, according to a recent report by Edward Yardeni, chief economist for Deutsche Morgan Grenfell in New York. Japan's lack of action is also causing concern. The Japanese government said last month that important industries like finance, transport, energy, telecommunications and medicine were lagging in year 2000 preparation. Hong Kong's government has said 80 percent of its critical computer systems were ready for 2000 as of Sept. 30, 1998, but it is worried about small and medium-sized businesses. India does not expect much damage because of its small number of computers -- only around 2.3 million in a nation of about 950 million. But India's ``brain trust'' of software makers have bagged orders worth $1.5 billion to fix year 2000 problems around the world, said Dewang Mehta, executive director of the National Association of Software and Service Companies. In China, authorities have decreed that all government computer systems must be fixed by March and tests completed by September 1999. Cambridge University's Anderson said France was most at risk in Western Europe, with computer failures most likely in the public sector and especially public utilities. Any problems could quickly become a problem for neighbors such as Britain, which receives electric power from France. ``There is still quite a question mark over whether France sees the scale of the problem,'' said Chris Webster, head of year 2000 services at Cap Gemini. ``There's a real chance that there may be some loss of service from utilities. Who, when, where or why? Impossible to say. Will it be a complete loss of power, voltage fluctuations? And there is a remarkable lack of information from utilities as to what they are expecting to happen.'' JP Morgan's Year 2000 expert Patrick Ward says Eastern Europe's and Russia's utilities are a big concern, not least because Russia provides 40 percent of Germany's power. If some systems crashes are triggered early by the arrival of Jan. 1, 1999, it might be a blessing in disguise. ``This will involve accounting, planning and budgeting systems rather than operational executing systems, which carry out day-to-day business. It will give you some experience in spotting the
[CTRL] God's Banker Exhumed
-Caveat Lector- AP Headlines Wednesday December 16 12:09 PM ET Italians Exhume Banker's Body COMO, Italy (AP) - While his son and a judge looked on, the body of a Vatican-connected financier was exhumed today to determine whether his 1982 death was murder or suicide. Prosecutors hope a new examination of the body will shed light on the death of Roberto Calvi, whose corpse was found hanging from Blackfriars Bridge in London following Italy's biggest postwar banking scandal. Calvi was known as ``God's banker'' for his close ties to the Vatican. Calvi's wooden coffin was taken from the family tomb in Drezzo, a town on the shores of Lake Como, sealed with lead and loaded onto a hearse for the trip to the morgue in nearby Milan. Despite the years since Calvi's death, Italian Judge Otello Lupacchini said he was certain that forensic science could determine the cause of death. Banco Ambrosiano, in which the Vatican bank held a significant stake, collapsed in 1982 when it could not collect $1.4 billion in loans to shell companies in Latin America. Calvi, the bank's chairman, was found dead days later. Roman businessman Flavio Carboni has been charged with conspiracy to commit murder. Prosecutors asked for the exhumation after Carboni's lawyers presented a report based on a preliminary examination of the body that indicated Calvi had hanged himself. ``What do I think of the exhumation? It was Carboni's right to seek it in his defense. For us, it's traumatic,'' said Carlo Calvi, who flew in from his home in Montreal.

[CTRL] Let's bomb Iraq to save Bubba and the dollar
-Caveat Lector- Wednesday December 16, 4:44 pm Eastern Time (Note: this article is ``in progress''; there will likely be an update soon.) Dollar ends U.S. firmer as Iraq crisis looms NEW YORK, Dec 16 (Reuters) - The dollar ended higher against major currencies Wednesday as the United States moved closer to military strikes against Iraq, which could delay impeachment proceedings against U.S. President Clinton. But the dollar's gains were less pronounced versus the Japanese yen, which rallied in overnight trading after Japan reported its trade surplus continued to swell in October. The threat of renewed military conflict in the Middle East triggered some dollar buying in a knee-jerk flight to safety. The greenback is traditionally viewed as a secure place to park investment capital in times of global crisis. ``People mostly think you buy dollars on the back of this. It's silly, but people still do it,'' said one currency dealer at a major U.S. investment bank. The dollar ended higher at 116.90/00 yen from 116.03/13 at the open and 116.50/60 at Tuesday's close. Dollar/mark rose to 1.6760/70 from 1.6630/40 at the open and 1.6600/10 on Tuesday. United Nations arms inspectors quickly exited Iraq as Clinton huddled with top foreign policy and defense advisers. Anonymous defense officials said they were ready to strike Iraq without warning. The commotion fueled speculation that the House of Representatives might delay debate on impeaching Clinton, the threat of which had caused dollar sales recently. ``The dollar had been down with the impeachment story. But with any delay, that could be bullish for the dollar,'' said one currency dealer at a U.S. bank. The dollar had fallen overnight against the yen after Japan reported the surplus in its current account--the widest measure of trade in goods and services--grew 21.5 percent to $11.6 billion in October from a year earlier. As Japan exports far more than it imports, currency markets experience a relative shortage of yen, boosting its value. Japan also announced a $5.15 billion three-year loan program to boost sagging Asian economies, which was seen helping Japan along with the rest of the region. Dealers said the dollar would continue to trade in narrow but volatile ranges in coming sessions as many market players had already ended trading activities for the year. ``The market was short dollars on impeachment. Once the market gets long again, it will go back down,'' said one dealer at a Japanese bank. Late in New York trade the dollar briefly pushed above 117 yen when air raid sirens were heard in Baghdad, though witnesses reported no unusual activity. The dollar rose to 1.3525/35 Swiss francs from 1.3438/48 at the open. The British pound fell to $1.6677/87 from $1.6780/90 at the open and $1.6838/48 at Tuesday's close. The dollar rose to Canadian $1.5392/02 from C$1.5378/88. The Australian dollar rose to $0.6230/35 from $0.6210/20 at the open.

The CIA was also interested in Princess Diana's sexual habits and kept a 1100 page Dosier on her. They don't want anyone to see it according to the San Jose Mercury, Dec. 12, 1998 and the Star Dec. 22, 1998. Bill Clinton's sexual trap was not the only case the CIA/Pentagon was interested in. It is possible that the CIA was more interested in Princess Diana's stance for the Red Cross against the land mines. How much do you want to bet? About two years ago one may want to note: That Bill Clinton's Ambassador, Pamela Harriman (once married to Winston Churchill's son) died at Mohamed Al Fayed's Ritz Hotel swimming pool.

[CTRL] Fwd: Council on Foreign Relations Special Group Declares War!
Council on Foreign Relations Special Group Declares War! Reuter's reported that early today Council on Foreign Relations Special Group members President William Jefferson Clinton, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, and Secretary of Defense William Cohen met to discuss attacking Iraq. The article quotes Ken Bacon, a Pentagon spokesman, as saying Clinton had full moral responsibility and authority to make any decision on Iraq policy, despite impeachment proceedings. "The president is the commander-in-chief (of the armed forces)," Bacon said. "I think that he has the full authority given under the Constitution to take any action he needs to take in protection of our national interest, whatever he decides that is." Someone should tell Pentagon Spokesman Bacon that Congress, not President Clinton is responsible for declaring war. The Constitution of the United States Article 1, Section 8, states, "the Congress shall have Power to declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water." If President Clinton thinks our national interests are in need of protection, shouldn't he put the matter before Congress? The Council on Foreign Relations has only 3000 members yet they control over three-quarters of the nations wealth. The Council on Foreign Relations runs the State Department and the CIA. The Council on Foreign Relations has placed 100 Council on Foreign Relations members in every Presidential Administration since Woodrow Wilson. They work together to misinform and disinform the President to act in the best interest of the Council on Foreign Relations not the best interest of the American People. At least five Presidents (Eisenhower, Ford, Bush and Clinton) have been members of the Council on Foreign Relations. The Council on Foreign Relations has packed every Supreme court with Council on Foreign Relations insiders. Two Council on Foreign Relations members (Ruth Bader Ginsberg and Sandra Day O'Connor) sit on the supreme court. The Council on Foreign Relations's British Counterpart is the Royal Institute of International Affairs. The members of these groups profit by creating tension and hate. Their targets include British and American citizens. The 100 Council on Foreign Relations members that surround the president are "the Secret Team." The "Secret Team" help carry out psycho-political operations scripted by Council on Foreign Relations members in the state department and the Intelligence Organizations. The psycho-political operations are coordinated by a group of Council on Foreign Relations members called the Special Group. The Special Group evolved from the Psychological Strategy Board. President Truman issued an executive order establishing the Psychological Strategy Board. The Board was run by Council on Foreign Relations members Gordon Gray and Henry Kissinger. The PSB has close ties to the State Department and Intelligence Organizations. The purpose of the PSB was to co-ordinate psycho-political operations. Many of those operations were focused at Americans. The people became wary of the Psychological Strategy Board. Eisenhower issued an executive order changing its name to the Operations Coordination Board. The OCB was a bigger more powerful PSB. Gray and Kissinger ran the OCB too. President Kennedy abolished the OCB. It became an ad hoc committee called the "Special Group," which exists today. The PSB/OCB/Special Group always has Council on Foreign Relations members running and sitting on it. Since the Special Group was not formed by Executive Order it cannot be abolished. A list of Council on Foreign Relations members in the Clinton administrations special group and secret team is posted on the RoundTable website at [http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/2807/CFRClinton.html ]. The INQUIRY was America's first Central Intelligence Agency. Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, and Woodrow Wilson's close political advisor and friend, Edward Mandel House, suggested the idea to Wilson. House became the INQUIRY's first director, Lippmann was House's first recruit. The existence of the INQUIRY such a well kept secret, that to this day hardly any Americans have heard of the INQUIRY or are aware that it ever existed. Wilson paid for the INQUIRY from the President's Fund for National Safety and Defense. He directed that it not be housed in Washington. A remote room in the New York Public Library was its first office. Later it moved to offices in the American Geographical Society at West 155th Street and Broadway. James T. Shotwell, a Columbia University historian and an early recruit came up with the agency name the INQUIRY, which, he said, would be a "blind to the general public, but would serve to identify it among the initiated." 5 Shotwell probably chose the name because the word History is derived from the a Greek word meaning "a learning by inquiry." Ironically the INQUIRY would use psychological warfare techniques to warp
[CTRL] Fwd: [priory-of-sion] Some very interesting answers from M.Dagobert.
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I will share all letters from M.Dagobert I recieve with this list. Here are some answers to a letter I sent: 1) Saunière has never been wealthy, he was manipulated by his brother, preceptor in the Chefdebien family and in relationship with the Habsbourg family. Those are the ones who sponsored Sauniere's works in the hope of recovering the treasure of the Jews and to rebuild the German Holy Empire with the Catholic Church of Rome. 2) Boudet was an original who made an imaginary work that the Scientific Society of the Aude, France, never took seriously. This is Plantard with the help of Philippe de Cerisey, bad comedian, friend of Pierre Dac (famous french comedian) who built all that story of rebus to justify the Priory of Sion. I will talked to you another time about Poussin who was native of Normandy, near Gisors and its famous castle (related to Plantard). 3) It is almost sure that the Priory of Sion really existed and that it has been founded by the first patriarch of Jerusalem, legate of the pope Urbain ll : Dagobert, arbishop of Pise, the 27th of December 1099, almost 8 centuries ago. 4) The Priory of Sion of Mr Plantard was founded in Annemasse in June 1956, a few weeks after the death of my father in, the 23rd of May 1956. My father was born in Nantes, the 27th of December 1899. 5) Dagobert ll was the little son of king Dagobert 1st. He had no successor. His brother Clovis ll ruled alone over the full kindom of the Francs. He had successors until Childéric lll who was discarded by Pépin le Bref in 751 and sent to the abbey of Sithiu. His son, Thierry about 18 years old was sent to the abbey of St Wandrille and the monks sent him later in a sister abbey in the Cotentin, in the area of St Lô (probably in Périers). This is where he married a wiking and founded a family to which he gave the name of Dagobert in memory of the most prestigious kings of the Francs, after Clovis. 6) A lot of french authors and journalists took very seriously my book about the story of the Dagobert family and I even received the second price of history from the jury of the Academical Society of Nantes and Loire- Atlantique. That price was given to me by M. de Cossé Brissac himself, president of the conseil général (department council) and senator of Loire- Atlantique. The reporter of the jury was an old general-magistrate who took care of the lawsuit of the criminals of Oradour in Bordeaux in 1953. Because of that fact, he was perfectly aware of the story of the gold of the SS in between the spanish boundary and the swiss boundary in 1943 and 1944 whose the heart was in the city of Limoges, where lived, with the Dumas family (Roland Dumas is a minister in the actual french government), an austrian jew named Felberbaum. 7) Mr Pierre Plantard whose family is from Britany in France knew very well the Dagobert family and its story. But, mythomaniac and ambitious, he joined the colaboration with some "cagoulards" among whom was Mr Francois Mitterrand (previous president of France during 14 years). This is because of these people that after the war the so-called austrian jew, in fact the son of a noble banker from Vienna followed the cause of the Habsbourg family, and became the financial sponsor of Mitterrand for his electoral campaign of 1974, 1981 and 1988.

[CTRL] Madeleine Brown interview
from: alt.conspiracy.jfk " FM - You told me you saw Lyndon on November 21, 1963. Is that right? MB - Perfectly. It was a surprise. I was invited to a party at Murchisons Dallas residence. The party was given in honor of Edgar Hoover, the FBIs chief. Richard Nixon was there. John McCloy, a future member of the Warren Commission was there also. Lyndon arrived late. I didnt even know he was there. He, Hunt and others immediately locked themselves in a room for a ten minute conference. When Lyndon came out he spotted me. He seemed so angry and had a dreadful look on his face. He came up to me and whispered: "After tomorrow, those damn Kennedys will never stand in my way again. Thats not a threat, its a promise". Ive never forgotten that. FM - What was your reaction? MB - I didnt really react. I couldnt imagine that his words would ever ring true. Lyndon was extremely angry with JFK. It was just one more time. The next morning, four hours before the assassination, I spoke to Lyndon on the phone at the hotel where he stayed with Kennedy. He told me the same thing again and I told him wed see each other again and I would make him forget whatever plagued him. FM - I hope you realize the impact of what you are implying. Youre implicating the vice-president in the crime of the century. MB - I dont know if Lyndon was the instigator of this crime. It could be. All I know is what he told me on the 21st and repeated on the 22nd. About a month after, I had wanted to know for sure so I asked him if he was involved in the Kennedy murder. He got so angry that I regretted ever bringing it up. Then he told me (You know my friends - they killed him.) He was talking of those millionaires. FM - He didnt say anything else? MB - No and I never brought it up again. But I would like to tell you this about Hunt. A few minutes after the assassination, he went to Washington to give Lyndon a hand. When he came back a little before Christmas, he was a totally different man. Like an incredible weight was lifted off his shoulders. One day, he told me, smiling, (Weve won the war) Im sure he was referring to Kennedy." JFK: Truth of a conspiracy Madeleine Brown is barely 23 when she falls for Lyndon Johnsons charm. This Texan romance, filled with improvised meetings, unkept promises and quick but intense embrace, spanned more than two decades. But Madeleine was more than just one of the 36th presidents many conquests. In fact, on December 27, 1950, she gives birth to Steven: one more career secret for this ambitious politician. Johnsons son died in 1990. Since, Madeleine Brown, liberated from her imposed discretion, decided to share her memories of her time spent with the president. Without anger or need for revenge, still deeply in love with her Lyndon but very aware of historical accuracy, she proves her relationship by presenting passionate love notes written by Johnson as well as the letter from a Texas lawyer confirming the continuing financial support for Stevens education after Lyndons death. But a powerful mans intimate portrait becomes a loaded testimonial when she refers to the relationship between LBJ and JFK and describes Johnsons role in the November 1963 Kennedy Assassination. Madeleine Brown - Its very moving for me to meet you here at the Adolphus Hotel in Dallas. Its here that, about 50 years ago, I met Lyndon for the first time. Figaro Magazine - I imagine that this evening is forever engraved in you. MB - Oh yes I was 23 and still had my baby face. At the time I was working for the Glenn advertising agency a few steps away from the Adolphus. At the end of September 1948, Jesse Kallen, director of KTNC Radio in Austin, a close friend of Lyndon Johnson, invited me to a party given in honor of all those who had contributed to his electoral campaign. He was running for senator against Coke Stevenson. FM - Its the ballot 13 election, right? The one that was rigged? MB - Yes that was the one. Ballot 13 gave Lyndon victory. It was rapidly noticed that even the dead had voted, but it was to late. Lyndon was already in Washington. Its funny that Johnson made it to Washington thanks to election fraud. FM - So you met Lyndon that night for the first time? MB - Yes. When LBJ walked in the room it was so intense. He was so charismatic. The whole room gravitated towards him. I noticed him right away and I was seduced. He was a typical Texan-both feet on the ground, smiling, warm and terribly sexy. Jesse introduced us and I danced with Lyndon. It was so overwhelming to be in his arms. There was so much in the way we looked at each other. He invited me to another party at the Driskill Hotel in Austin. FM - Do you remember the date? MB - Of course. It was October 29, 1948. After two dances, he asked me to go up and wait for him in his suite. He met up with me an hour later and its that night that I became his

[CTRL] Fwd: In the Beginning was the Word -- TAXES
Were Egyptians the First Writers? CAIRO, Egypt (AP) -- Clay tablets uncovered in southern Egypt from the tomb of a king named Scorpion may represent the earliest known writing by humankind, an archaeologist said Tuesday. If confirmed, the discovery would rank among the greatest ever in the search for the origins of the written word. But the subject they mostly deal with may be of no surprise at all. It's taxes. Gunter Dreyer, head of the German Archaeological Institute, said the tablets record linen and oil deliveries made about 5,300 years ago as tithe to King Scorpion I. He said the tablets have been carbon-dated with certainty to between 3300 B.C. and 3200 B.C. The discovery throws open for debate a widely held belief among historians that the first people to write were the Sumerians of the Mesopotamian civilization sometime before 3000 B.C. The exact date of Sumerian writing remains in doubt. The Egyptian writings -- in the form of line drawings of animals, plants and mountains -- are the first evidence that hieroglyphics used by later-day Pharaonic dynasties did not ``rise as Phoenix from the ashes'' but developed gradually, Dreyer said. ``Linguists now have a larger history (of writing) to regard,'' he said. One American archaeologist called the tablets an ``exciting'' find. ``This would be one of the greatest discoveries in the history of writing and ancient Egyptian culture,'' Kent Weeks, professor of Egyptology at the American University in Cairo, told The Associated Press. But John Baines, a professor of Egyptology at Oxford University, was more cautious. ``Undoubtedly, (Dreyer's) findings are very important, but I have an open mind on this and would like to see'' more evidence on the comparative ages of the Egyptian and Mesopotamian samples, Baines said in a telephone interview. At this point, ``I would say it is likely that writing was invented in both places,'' he said. The bulk of Dreyer's discovery was from Scorpion's tomb in a cemetery in the Suhag province, 300 miles south of Cairo. Like many kings in pre-Pharaonic times, Scorpion took the name of an animal. Records have been found of chieftains named Mouse, Falcon, Double Falcon and Elephant before the first Pharaonic dynasty began in 2920 B.C. The Great Pyramid was not built until nearly 400 years later. Since 1985, Dreyer and his team have unearthed about 300 pieces of written material on clay tablets barely bigger than postage stamps and clay jars and vases with ink impressions. Dreyer said the writings were not a creative outpouring, but the result economic necessity: When chieftains expanded their areas of control they needed to keep a record of taxes, which were paid in commodities. Two-thirds of the tablets have been deciphered as accounts of linen and oil delivered to King Scorpion in taxes, short notes, numbers, lists of kings' names and names of institutions. Although the records are made up of symbols, they are considered true writing because each symbol stands for a consonant and makes up syllables. For example, the city named Ba-set was written by putting together a throne, known as Ba, and a stork, set. Similarly, Ju Gereh -- Mountain of Darkness, a reference to its location in the west where the sun set -- was designated with those symbols. Fish, the word for delivery, appears on many tablets against the names of settlements. Apart from the academic question of who came first, Dreyer said, the writings prove that the early Egyptian society was far more developed than previously thought. ``In principle, they were able to express themselves clearly,'' he said.

Trent Lott? Pataki? DeLay? Other? And why do you think your choice would be an improvement? == I didn't think this was about finding an improvement, I thought it was about removing a criminals from the office of the president. One need not be tried and convicted to be a criminal, thousands of robbers and murders have gotten away with out a trial, but that does not remove the fact that they are robbers and murders. A criminals (by any label) is one who transgress the laws on the books. If Clinton has done the same things others have been convicted as a criminals for, then Clinton is a criminal. The fact that high party mob bosses will not be tried for their criminals acts, does not change the fact that they are criminals. When any politician does the very same things others are convicted as felons for, that politician is a felon. No felon/criminals politician who does the same things others are sent to prison for, is fit for office. Powerful criminals holding office?

Any opinion that counters that view is given short shrift in passing. If the media IS doing this (and you seem to never give reference to specific media outlets, Marilyn), then it's something that's occurred since this weekend...what I've been hearing on NBC, CNN, FOX, is that Clinton is so popular, that all the polls prove how popular he is, so how can impeachment be seriously considered? It's only since the articles were actually passed by the Judiciary Committee and sent on to the House that, as was pointed out, there has been a subtle shift in the media's reporting...but what I've seen is a reaction akin to amazement that this is actually happening, and perhaps the rats are deciding to abandon a sinking ship... I think also that in the past, the WH wielded a lot of power in only 'allowing' certain reporters and media outlets access to the WH (this applies to past administrations, too, not just Clinton's)...and that now that impeachment seems imminent, those in the media realize they are in the position of Clinton now needing them more than they need him, and they are therefore taking advantage of the situation... This scenario would come about irregardless of the party and the politics of whomever was in the White House...the rats abandon the sinking ship and turn into a flock of vultures circling their dying victim... There's hardly any mention of what this trial would do to the country Not surprising, since the media's never discussed what Chinagate, Whitewater, Vince Foster and all the other murders, have done to this country, either... it's highly unlikely that the Senate would agree with an impeachment. Doesn't matter if the Senate 'agrees'...by the time it comes to the Senate for a trial, the president's already been impeached. Impeachment means only that a public official has been accused of misconduct in office...impeachment does NOT mean removal from office. If the House impeaches, then the Senate holds a trial...a trial which may or may not lead to Clinton's removal from office, but that's why the trial is held...to determine the validity of the charges... The national opinion may be 68-32 in favor of non-impeachment, but The 'national opinion' is as ignorant of what impeachment actually is (as your statement above displays you yourself to be), and therefore when asked about impeachment, 'the public' who equates the word with 'removal from office' answers in the negative... I'd hazard the guess that if the polls instead worded their questions more like: "Do you think the House of Representatives should adopt the charges against the President, and then have the Senate hold a trial based on those charges?", the answers would be very different...

[CTRL] Taiwan Gets Smart Card National IDs
-Caveat Lector- Taiwan Gets Smart Cards http://abcnews.go.com/sections/tech/DailyNews/nextfiles981207.html Under a new $300 million program recently announced by Taiwan's deputy minister for economic affairs, every adult will be given two smart cards: one for identification and one for transactions. Deputy Minister Chang Chang-pang made the announcement to the Asia Pacific Smart Card Association in a keynote address. The system will feature both contact and contactless cards, and will be used for ID, medical and social security benefits. It could be the first card to combine all health insurance information, including prescription coverage, on one piece of plastic. One can expect public transportation uses as well, similar to the Octopus system now in use in Hong Kong. "This initiative on the part of the Taiwan government paves the way for the introduction of intelligent smart card solutions in the private and public sectors not just in Taiwan, but across Asia and the rest of the world," APSCA GM Greg Pote noted last week in an IT Daily release. I think he may be right. The ASEAN market, less sensitive to privacy issues that plague the West, is perfect for large-scale smart card development. Once these apps prove themselves in Taiwan, expect to see them in the U.S. and Europe soon.

New York attorney Edward Fagan said on Monday he sent ``new evidence'' of Deutsche's involvement with the Nazi-era regime in the form of World War Two-era U.S. intelligence documents to U.S. banking and German government officials. A Deutsche Bank spokesman said, however, the evidence was hardly new but apparently came from papers that had been available since shortly after the war ended. ``Mr. Fagan has not yet made his documents available to us,'' a bank spokesman said. ``The details that have been made known to us so far indicate that they have been available for decades.'' The German bank's $10.1 billion purchase of Bankers Trust of the United States is pending approval from U.S. authorities. Fagan said the documents supported a suit he filed in June in federal court demanding $18 billion in reparations from Deutsche Bank and Dresdner Bank for accounts looted from Holocaust victims by the Nazis. ``With this new evidence I will work even harder to see to it that the survivors will finally get the justice they deserve,'' Fagan said. ``Regulators will now have ammunition as they decide on the proposed merger.'' One post-war document obtained by Reuters called for the bank's liquidation and for its officials to be indicted and tried as war criminals over its participation in Nazi war crimes. A November 1946 report by the U.S. Military Government for Germany details how Deutsche Bank carried out an ``aryanization'' program during the Nazi years by broking or buying properties or businesses taken from Jews held in Nazi custody. ``The Deutsche Bank indicated a very early interest in aryanization,'' the report said. It ``gained politically by its demonstrations of loyalty to the Nazi program'' and ``reaped immediate and tangible extra profits'' by keeping accounts. A Deutsche spokesman said he had not seen the documents yet, but added ``Deutsche Bank's involvement in aryanization is known and we have never denied it.'' A flood of lawsuits have been filed by Holocaust victims against German banks and manufacturers including DaimlerChrysler, Volkswagen and Siemens. New York City Comptroller Alan Hevesi has said he would block the merger unless Deutsche Bank first settles survivors' claims, the Times reported Monday.

Under a nationalisation scheme adopted in October, the commission aims to dispose of problem loans at failed or failing banks without harming depositors or sound borrowers. Up to 18 trillion yen ($153 billion) in public money is available for temporarily nationalising banks and covering losses stemming from cleaning up their balance sheets. The scheme lasts until March 2001. Tokyo has quickened moves to clear up its banking system woes amid a rising chorus of international demands that Japan reform the financial system as a top priority in reviving its economy. Analysts say the commission's immediate tasks include setting the price for the government's acquisition of shares in two banks which have already been put under temporary state control. Nationalisation of Nippon Credit Bank (NCB) was announced on Sunday, and the Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan was placed under state control on October 23. But analysts warned of the possibility of lawsuits. ``The share prices of NCB and LTCB will be set at nil as they were regarded as being insolvent... It might upset shareholders and some may file a suit, particularly NCB's shareholders,'' said Akira Takai, a senior analyst at Daiwa Institute of Research. The commission can nationalise a bank by making a forced purchase of all of its common shares regardless of any protest from shareholders. But analysts said shareholders could file a suit if they disagreed about the price. Under a bank revitalisation law that took effect in October, a bank can request nationalisation, as LTCB did. But if there are concerns over its ability to repay depositors, it can be compulsorily put under temporary state control. NCB was nationalised despite its resistance. When the commission puts a bank under temporary state control, it appoints a new board of directors to approve a sound credit

[CTRL] A kinder, gentler lynch mob - Part I
-Caveat Lector- A kinder, gentler lynch mob Salon, 12/15/98 THE 'PEACHY-KEEN GOP HAS SHOWN ITS TRUE COLORS -- AND THEY CONFIRM THE MOST BRAIN-DEAD RADICAL STEREOTYPES FROM THE '60S. BY GARY KAMIYA I grew up believing that Republicans were the incarnation of all evil. This was a harsh and unsophisticated judgment, but the political discourse of 1960s Berkeley, where I grew up, lacked a certain refinement. In fact, to be honest, it was pretty much taken straight from Saturday morning cartoons. In our righteous view, "the people," whoever they were, were always being "oppressed" by The Man, a bloated GOP plutocrat mouthing pious moral maxims. It went without saying that Republicans were self-righteous, mean-spirited rich white men who secretly napalmed Cambodian villages, turned loose the dogs against civil rights marchers and dug the Carpenters. They were Bad, and if we could somehow get rid of them -- meanwhile taking lots of acid and listening to Hendrix -- Good Things would happen. Later, like many of my co-religionists, I became embarrassed by these sentiments. Such crude beliefs were unseemly. Sophistication demanded a more nuanced view. Republicans, I now realized, could be decent men and women who were just parroting the country-club line. Even the Reagan Age -- that endless period I as a Californian was forced to spend under the Great Communicator's genially callous thumb, while the Woolly Mammoths died out and Ice Ages came and went across the globe -- couldn't make me return to the wooden Stalinist sloganeering of my youth. I even reevaluated the Carpenters. And then came the Starr referral and Henry Hyde and the House Judiciary Committee vote, and I realized I had gotten it right the first time. When the Republicans in the full House vote to remove President Clinton from office, as they will almost certainly do, they will prove that those brain- dead radical stereotypes about them really do apply. They will be revealed as mean-spirited, partisan hacks, hypocrites, moral absolutists hiding their craven desire for vengeance and power beneath a ridiculously transparent façade of pious "deliberation" and "respect for law." The GOP will stand exposed before all of America as the party of vicious, petty ideologues who, in their outrageous desire to undo the results of two lawful elections, seized upon a grotesquely acquired legalistic evasion that falls so far short of meeting the constitutional standard of high crimes and misdemeanors as to be laughable. Or, let's give them the benefit of the doubt, as the ever-generous New York Times did in a recent editorial. Let's assume that some of them are actually sincere in their belief that lying about sex -- in an obvious vendetta case brought by a biased and obsessed "independent" counsel who, after utterly failing to find any serious misdeeds, connived to lay a perjury trap -- constitutes an impeachable offense. But if they really believe that, then we must conclude that either their grasp of the Constitution is so weak that their fitness to sit in any elected office is highly questionable, or that they are so rigid in their moral purity as to be Torquemadas in power ties, quasi-theocratic inquisitors who would turn America into a frightening Bible Belt version of 15th century Spain or 20th century Iran. Why are the Republicans doing this? Why, defying the express wishes of the American people, are they trampling on the Constitution, weakening the presidency and inaugurating a hideous new political world of blood feuds and true hatred? And why are they ignoring the warnings from the business community -- to which they used to listen -- that impeachment is dangerous and destabilizing? The answer is simple: This is who they are. This action reflects the GOP's true nature. This is a party so desperate to burn a president they dislike at the stake that they'll incinerate the Constitution to get the fire started. All that hoo-hah a few weeks ago about how Robert Livingston was going to bring a new "moderation" to the party now that nutty professor Gingrich was gone stands revealed as empty verbiage. The truth is that this is now a party of zealots and ideologues, obsessed crusaders who have completely lost touch with the common sense, fairness and decency of the American people. Like Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge, who declared a purifying "Year Zero" when history's slate was to be wiped clean (and all nonpeasants were to be killed), these high- minded crusaders want to restore America's sense of moral purpose -- and if they have to trash the country in order to do it, well, extremism in the defense of virtue is no vice! To the tumbrels with the parasites, citizens, while the Times and the Post knit their stern editorials! GOP "moderates"? What moderates? The few "moderates" who are trotted forth on TV to be shown to the mob, like condemned Chinese dissidents with signs hanging around their necks, seem barely sentient. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER ==
[CTRL] A Kinder, Gentler Lynch Mob - Part II
-Caveat Lector- A KINDER, GENTLER LYNCH MOB | PAGE 1, 2 - - - - - - - - - - The façade of "judiciousness" and "bipartisanship" that the pious media, ever cowed by the musty aura of Historic Constitutional Events, dark-wooded chambers, invocations of "our national honor" and other useful fig leafs for skullduggery, tried to sell us has vanished without a trace. Hyde, the Iran- contra apologist and wisecracking GOP attack dog who was elevated to Solomon- like heights of wisdom by the media before the disgraceful House Judicial proceedings began, has now taken up final residence in the trash can with unsavory American byproducts like our anal home-grown Robespierre, Kenneth Starr, and the maniacal Bob Barr, who apparently believes that Clinton should have been impeached at birth. There was Hyde this weekend on the talk shows, saying that Clinton should resign. This paragon of impartiality apparently modeled his jurisprudential approach on the Red Queen in "Alice in Wonderland," who, as a witness departs in the trial of the Knave of Hearts, says under her voice, "And just take off his head outside." But, gosh, he sure sounds courtly talking that parliamentary talk. In fact, Hyde may have been taking those groveling Times setup pieces a little too seriously, for this weekend he began to invoke no less a figure than Jesus Christ. Asked by Cokie Roberts why he advocated impeachment and didn't think censure should be an option despite popular opinion, he replied, "If Jesus Christ had taken a poll, he would never have preached the gospel." This is a wonderful addition to the great American tradition of reactionary invocations of Jesus, who after patriotism represents the best refuge for scoundrels. (The all-time winner remains that English-only advocate who declaimed, "If English was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for me.") With all due respect to the pious motivations behind Chairman Hyde's religious parallel, however, it may not be a good strategy for him to go there. Somehow, when one looks at the faces of Clinton's judges -- the pig-eyed ex-exterminator Tom DeLay; the robotic, hate-filled Barr; the snidely, vitriolic David Schippers; the priggish choirboy-judge Bill McCollum -- the loving face of the Savior does not exactly rush into one's mind. In fact, these worthies recall somewhat less inspiring figures from the New Testament -- namely the Pharisees, those vengeful, legalistic Jews who denounced Jesus. (The "moderates," who will doubtless be washing their hands avidly in the days to come, conjure up that noted Northeastern GOP fence-sitter, Pontius Pilate.) Admittedly, the mushy- souled escape artist President Clinton makes a truly terrible Jesus, but the imagery still isn't good. The Republicans are zealots, but they're crafty zealots. Their attempt to take Clinton down may blow up in their faces, but they have reasons for thinking it won't. They think they can get away with this without being punished at the polls, even if they don't kill Clinton. But they cherish a secret hope that they will kill him -- that once impeachment is a fait accompli, with all the previously mentioned flag-waving, invocation of the Founders, gravity of the charges blah blah blah, public opinion will turn against Clinton, leading either to his resignation or to his conviction and removal by the Senate. And that hope is based on their belief that Clinton's support is inch-deep -- that once the American people realize he's in trouble, they'll desert him like rats abandoning a sinking ship. It's the self-fulfilling prophecy strategy, and it is astonishingly contemptuous. It presumes that the American people have no memory, no spiritual or moral consistency, that they are incapable of holding onto any position any longer than a jittery kid with a remote can watch one TV program. The GOP believes this for several reasons. First, they too are children of our Warholian society of the spectacle, in which everything that flickers across the screen has equal weight and nothing stays on the screen for more than a few seconds. As such, they too have been seduced by the belief that, in Marx's words, "all that is solid melts into air." Yesterday's Clinton supporter is today's impeachment supporter. The scary thing is, they just might be right. There have been very few tests of our national consistency in the channel-changing age. The public might be influenced by the media, which has begun running this-is-a-whole-new-ballgame- now stories. The Times, much of whose Clinton coverage continues to appall, splashed on its cover a thin reaction story (ominous headline: "Gravity of the issues sinking in for a public weary of scandal") that featured two or three people in that multicultural mirror of America, Tarrytown, N.Y., saying they were now leaning toward impeachment. (How odd, considering nothing in this story has changed in months except the vote to impeach.) But it would be bitterly ironic (although perfectly consistent,

-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ A HREF="http://www.aci.net/kalliste/"The Home Page of J. Orlin Grabbe/A - Impeachment Watch Key Republicans Dessert Clinton Momentum for Impeachment Builds WASHINGTON - In an ominous development for President Bill Clinton, several key Republican moderates in the House of Representatives added their voices Tuesday to the mounting calls for his impeachment. ''Clearly, the momentum is in the direction of the House voting articles of impeachment,'' said Senator Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut, an influential Democrat. The White House has desperately sought to persuade some of the 20 to 24 undeclared Republicans to oppose impeachment in what is expected to be an extremely close vote in the House on Thursday or Friday. But in the last two days more than a dozen previously undeclared Republicans have come out in favor of impeachment. In a blow to White House hopes, Representative Nancy Johnson of Connecticut, co-leader of a group of moderate House Republicans, said Tuesday that she would vote to impeach President Clinton. ''The president does not have the right to commit perjury when it is convenient or when he thinks the charges against him are frivolous,'' Ms. Johnson said. Another Republican, Representative Jay Dickey, who represents Mr. Clinton's home district in Arkansas, criticized the White House for what he said were scare tactics to influence his vote. It is like a ''tidal wave'' against the president, said Harold Ickes, a Democratic consultant and Mr. Clinton's former deputy chief of staff. He said there was still a chance of stopping that tide, however. But the latest Republican declarations left prospects sharply higher that the full House would approve at least one of the four articles of impeachment before it, in effect indicting the president and sending the case to the Senate for trial. As representatives streamed back to Washington for party caucus meetings Wednesday and the historic debate to open Thursday, only a few were still undecided which lever they would pull. They were much on the mind of the president, who was returning late Tuesday from the Middle East. It was unclear whether there was time left for even a dramatic gesture - perhaps a statement to the House of Representatives - to tip the balance away from impeachment. White House aides said they were waiting to hear whether Mr. Clinton had decided to run the risks of such a gesture. His earlier comments have often fanned Republican anger because the president has not admitted that he lied under oath in the Paula Jones sexual harassment inquiry or before the grand jury of the independent counsel, Kenneth Starr. And while some House members have said they will oppose impeachment only if Mr. Clinton admits to having lied under oath about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky, a former White House intern, others might use such an admission to justify a vote to impeach. Another jolt to White House prospects came from Representative Jack Quinn of New York, who had been one of the first Republicans to publicly oppose impeachment. He reversed himself Tuesday, saying he would vote for the four articles of impeachment. Representative John McHugh of New York was among the other Republicans who said they would support impeachment. Two of the four articles of impeachment, sent to the full House by the Judiciary Committee, assert that Mr. Clinton committed perjury in his sworn denials of having had an intimate relationship with Ms. Lewinsky, one holds that he obstructed justice in seeking to conceal the relationship, and one holds that he abused his power in his attempts to resist the investigation of his affair. If a simple majority of House members - 218 of the 435 - votes for even one article, then the Senate will hold a trial, presided over by the chief justice. With senators acting as a jury, 67 votes in the 100-seat chamber would be required to remove the president from office. Clinton loyalists and Democratic allies carried their anti-impeachment drive forward Tuesday on a variety of fronts, from radio ads to rallies and vigils. The White House, however, seemed shaken and unsure of what more it could do. ''The reality is there is less and less that can be done from here,'' Ann Lewis, the White House communications director, told the Los Angeles Times. ''This is a somber place. We've got a very difficult challenge.'' Pressure on still-undeclared legislators was intense. Some were receiving 250 telephone calls an hour. Representative Dickey of Arkansas likened the pressure to ''12 hours of surgery without anesthesia'' and lashed out at an unidentified White House aide for suggesting that it would be ''political suicide'' for him to oppose impeachment. Mr. Dickey said he would not decide how to vote until returning to Washington on Wednesday. The White House spokesman, Joe Lockhart, said

There was, as you know, a critical infrastructure task force and report last year or early this year, that has led to some reorganization within the government, and a new focus on ways to protect our critical infrastructure -- whether it's the power system or whether it's the water systems or whether it's our computer systems. So increasing attention is being paid to that. I think it's an area in which it's very difficult to say that enough attention is being paid, in part because the question always arises, how much is enough? But clearly, it's one that's of growing concern to the military and growing concern to this Administration as well. So it's getting more attention in the building, and more attention outside the building. And I might add, I believe it's getting more attention from private industry as well.

In the ninth installment of its public policy advertising campaign running on the op-ed page of The New York Times and The New Republic, the ACLU said that because 75 percent of American money is tainted with cocaine, police have the right to seize people's cash, as well as any other assets they can get their hands on. "In 1984, Congress gave police the right to keep and spend any 'drug-related' assets they seize," the advertisement says. "Police have since taken cars, homes, restaurants, and cash in epidemic proportions. And they can use these assets for anything from patrol cars to parties." The year-long advertising campaign, a first-ever effort for the 78-year-old organization, has run on The New York Times op-ed page once a month during 1998. Each ad contained a briefly worded message from ACLU Executive Director Ira Glasser on topical subjects ranging from the war on drugs to religious freedom to government intrusions in the bedroom. In the current ad, Glasser says that most of the victims of government forfeiture laws aren't criminals. "Like the 75-year-old grandmother who lost her home because her drug-dealing son had once lived there. Or the landscaper whose $9,000 was seized at the airport because Ôonly drug dealers carry that much cash.'" Those and other stories have landed the issue before Congress, prompting House Judiciary Chairman Henry Hyde, R-IL, to introduce the bi-partisan "Civil Asset Forfeiture Reform Act" to overhaul the nation's laws on property seizures. In June 1997 Congressional testimony supporting the bill, ACLU President Nadine Strossen said that reforms are critically needed because "innocent property owners, or those who have committed only minor infractions are now subject to draconian punishments and property deprivations." The bill is expected to be re-introduced in the 106th Congress, and the ACLU is urging people to support the measure. One leading historian, today's ad notes, calls forfeiture laws nothing less than a government "license to steal." "The war on drugs has become a war on the Constitution," the ad concludes. "What kind of country rewards its police for shaking down its own citizens?" To further stimulate public discussion, the ad will have an interactive component through a "message board" on the ACLU's Freedom Network Website at http://www.aclu.org/features/nytimesad121198.html. Visitors to the website will be able to access background information on the subject of this month's ad, and will be invited to post their own thoughts to an interactive message board. Today's ad concludes the op-ed series for 1998. The ACLU said that it is contemplating continuing the popular feature in the coming year. The ACLU is a nationwide, non-partisan organization dedicated to defending and preserving the Bill of Rights for all individuals through litigation, legislation and public education. Headquartered in New York City, the ACLU has 53 staffed affiliates in major cities, more than 300 chapters nationwide, and a legislative office in Washington. The bulk of its $35 million annual budget is raised by contributions from members -- 275,000 strong -- and gifts and grants from other individuals and foundations. The ACLU does not accept government funds. The new ACLU advertisement can be found at: http://www.aclu.org/features/nytimesad121198.html
[CTRL] IBM's Secure Mailer
-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.jya.com/ibm-secmail.htm A HREF="http://www.jya.com/ibm-secmail.htm"IBM's Secure Mailer/A - 14 December 1998 Source: http://www.ibm.com/Press/prnews.nsf/f2c9dfb4f2374775852565d2000eb728/f5f 689efafab1ca3852566da0054821d?OpenDocument IBM Releases Open Software to Improve Security, Performance Reliability of Internet E-mail Systems Free Secure Mailer Code Could Ensure Security of Systems Transferring Billions of E-mails Daily Yorktown Heights, NY, December 14, 1998: IBM today announced it is making available open source software designed to improve the security, reliability and performance of e-mail delivery services, a crucial component of the Internet's infrastructure. Called Secure Mailer, the new software could replace e-mail delivery software that processes more than three-quarters of the Internet's e-mail traffic today. Developed by IBM researcher Wietse Venema, Secure Mailer is far more robust and flexible than similar messaging components, called Mail Transfer Agents (MTA). According to Venema, the majority of e-mail -- more than a billion messages sent daily worldwide -- is processed by MTA technology that originated in the early eighties and was not designed with today's Internet traffic and security needs in mind. Secure Mailer is available for download beginning today from IBM's alphaWorks Web site at www.ibm.com/alphaworks. Secure Mailer is open-source software, so anyone can freely copy, use, modify and distribute it. "By offering Secure Mailer free without licensing restrictions, IBM is helping build a stronger base for secure e-business," said Jeff Jaffe, general manager for IBM's IT Security. "This is an important step because MTAs with poor security are one of the most common ways for intruders to invade a company's network." Secure Mailer Offers Security, Reliability, Speed Messaging systems are comprised of Mail User Agents (MUAs), which send and request mail from users to their designated mail server, and Mail Transfer Agents (MTAs), which deliver mail to and from the various servers on a network. These mail systems are some of the most heavily used pieces of software on the Internet and form the basic plumbing for direct information exchange. Historically, e-mail systems have been a security risk because they must maintain some degree of openness to accept and distribute information. Secure Mailer is built to be an industrial-strength, general purpose MTA. It is specifically designed to keep up with the daily delivery of millions of messages, while maintaining a performance level nearly three times that of existing MTAs. IBM Research employed "defensive programming" techniques when developing Secure Mailer so it avoids operations and assumptions that could make it vulnerable to intruders, system errors, and malformed or suspicious e-mail. If any irregularities occur, safety nets in the various Secure Mailer components prevent them from adversely affecting the system. "We designed Secure Mailer so it proactively combats possible threats by assuming there will be attacks and fortifying those potential points of entry," said Venema. "It also protects against inadvertent user or administration errors that could lead to service interruptions." Secure Mailer was also designed to behave rationally under stress. For example, most mail systems can be dramatically slowed and even frozen by heavy traffic or resource requests, making mission-critical business communications difficult. A malicious attack such as a mail bomb -- when huge amounts of mail are sent to one user or host -- are intended to cripple mail systems. Because these systems cannot differentiate between a mail bomb and legitimate mass mailings on company servers and ISPs, these types of ill-intentioned deeds are difficult to defend against. With Secure Mailer, extremely heavy e-mail traffic will gracefully degrade performance, rather than crash the system. Modular Structure Enhances Customization and Security Secure Mailer has a modular architecture, so that each component can focus on its task alone and any problems or irregularities remain isolated to that piece of the application. Most other MTAs are built as singular monolithic programs, making the entire system potentially vulnerable to any problems. "E-mail systems are like people -- if you gave one person too many responsibilities and too little time, they could suffer burnout," Venema explained. "But Secure Mailer's sturdy components do one task each and do it well." The modular structure of Secure Mailer makes it much easier to port, configure, maintain and test, as well. Available from IBM for the UNIX/AIX platform, this modular design allows for easy configuration, letting system administrators pick and choose which MTA capabilities they need. It is standards-compliant and is built to be interoperable with the more common standards-compliant MTAs in

Re: [CTRL] The Holocaust

Both of these statements are true and easily verifiable. Christianity has a long history of anti-Semitism. I believe that Christianity has now essentially shucked that evil, the exception in the US being the racism of the identity movement (there are, of course, parallel groups in Europe). The southern Klansmen and white Aryan groups have heavily infiltrated the militia groups. The militia groups was already imbedded with the identity movement. The southern racists found it was easy to add another brand of hate to these deeply suspicious men who had already been forced off farms and out of heavy industry as the economy began to seriously go global in the 1980s. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) who had been tracking the movements of the most prominent racists were the first to detect this movement of leaders from the Klan and white citizen counsels to the militias. They have now set up a militia tracking unit. They report on both the traditional Klan type activity and the racist activity among the militia in their Intelligence Report, a quarterly. Of course racism is having a bit of a resurgence in Europe due to East European "wetbacks" swarming into West Europe. The Westerners resent the job competition much as the folks in California resented the "Okies" et al during the 1930s The Catholic Church did not collaborate in the Holocaust.

[CTRL] Fwd: ZNS: MONEY update.
Hi Guys: MONEY is printed and will be available for shipping in a few days, probably Friday. A last-minute problem (now solved) foil-stamping the hardcovers delayed the project. We've been asked if we think we will still be able to get books to U.S. customers before Christmas. The answer is YES! Orders are processed as they arrive, and when the books arrive we'll match them with invoices and the appropriate (addressed) shipping container. We plan to ship all orders the day we receive our initial inventory. But here's a nice holiday surprise for you: As you may already know, the regular per-copy price of MONEY is $39.95, an autograph (including the date and time I sign the book) is $20, and U.S. 3-day s/h is $10. Washington state residents pay 8.6% tax. However, in keeping with the season's spirit, we're offering a generous discount on orders we receive on or before Thursday, Dec 24. Washingtonians still have to pay the 8.6% tax, but, otherwise, here's the deal: Pay only $50: get one copy, with autograph and s/h, shipped anywhere in the U.S. Pay only $90: get two copies, with autographs and s/h, to one U.S. address. Pay only $125: get three copies, with autographs and s/h, to one U.S. address. Why should you buy copies of MONEY? Here are several reasons. 1. You'll enjoy its beauty. It's a stunningly attractive 8 1/2 x 11 1/2 inch casebound educational book, 347 pages, 1,200-entry index, with 48 pages of huge color photos of U.S. paper currencies; gold certificates, silver certificates, fractional currencies, etc., from as early as 1690; and color photos of all denominations of U.S. gold, silver, minor, Colonial, and privately-minted coins. MONEY's color photos also include the highest denomiminations of the four major U.S. paper currencies: $1,000 silver certificate, $10,000 U.S. Note, $10,000 Federal Reserve Note, and $100,000 gold certificate. 2. You'll enjoy its rarity. MONEY should become a collector's item because we believe it will be the world's first exposure to color photos of U.S. paper currency. Color reproduction of U.S. paper currency has always been a federal offense but about two years ago the law was changed. Shortly thereafter, we received our written permission from the U.S. Secret Service to publish MONEY with color photos. Copies of MONEY autographed at the earliest date and time should become the most valuable. I'll autograph the books sequentially, as we received the customer's orders. 3. You'll appreciate its educational value. MONEY cuts through the fog of confusion about fractional-reserve banking, federal deficit spending, the national debt, inflation, and the fact there is no precious metal backing for our paper currency today. Great for "home schoolers" of any age! 4. You'll be delighted with the credentials of its supporting materials. MONEY is loaded with facts, facts, facts: its 16 appendices include money-related U.S. laws, judicial quotations, law-dictionary definitions, encyclopedia articles, graphs, tables, and about 180 authoritative quotations on money (chronologically ordered from about 1750 B.C. to early 1998). Sources are: Encyclopaedia Britannica, Oxford English Dictionary, Black's Law Dictionary, Bouvier's Law Dictionary, West's "Words and Phrases," and even Webster's 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language. (Some material is quoted, other material is photographically reproduced.) 5. You'll feel very good about giving copies of MONEY to relatives and friends. MONEY, whose subtitle is "Ye shall have honest weights and measures," promotes "honest weights and measures" in today's society, a very worthy purpose. 6. You'll benefit by having your neighbors, friends, and associates fully understand the depth and breadth of today's monetary "hocus pocus." Even though it is crammed with facts and careful analysis, MONEY is written in layman's language to best communicate with the average voter. The bottom-line message in MONEY is that inflation and unbacked paper currency _may_ be evidence of the world's most powerful criminal syndicate perpetrating financial fraud on a colossal scale, possibly the largest crime in history. MONEY offers even relatively uninformed readers a friendly, sometimes humorous introduction to reality. MONEY's authoritative, credentialed sources, plus its patient, careful explanation of verbal manipulation tactics, should help most readers detect and avoid financial scams perpetrated by petty crooks AND scheming politicians. MONEY. There's never been another book like it. We accept e-gold(R)(account 100997), VISA, MasterCard, and U.S. or Canadian checks, money orders, and cash; in U.S. funds only. Ordering is easy: 1. Call me at 253-874-2704; or, 2. Fax me your order and credit card info (fax number 253-815-0265); or, 3. Email your order to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]; or, 4. Mail your order

Re: [CTRL] A kinder, gentler lynch mob - Part I
-Caveat Lector- I like the writing style of this article (at least at the beginning). I disagree with the content. The author has indeed reverted back to his original position that Republicans are Bad, Bad, Bad and Democrats are merely the victim of their cunning abuse of power and viciousness. Please. Clinton got caught with his pants down - quite literally. The Presidency of the United States is THE most powerful "official" position on this planet. The standards of conduct must be held high as the ramifications of indiscretions, even in his personal life, affect countless of millions of lives - not to mention millions of dollars unraveling these antics. There are expected behaviors for all the roles we each have in our lives. Only having sexual relations (as previously understood and not taking into account Clinton's new definition) with one's spouse is an expected behavior of marriage. If this restriction of behavior is unacceptable. Don't get married. On the same note, lying to the people he administers is unacceptable. If Clinton can not abide by this very simple rule of conduct then he needs to step down. Both the Democrats and the Republicans will sling mud to their advantage to garner more seats and consequently more sway in the House and Senate. That's the game. To imply that only the Republicans are playing this game is ridiculous. Btw: I am not a Republican and I am seriously reconsidering my designated "label" of Democrat.

BY GARY KAMIYA I grew up believing that Republicans were the incarnation of all evil. This was a harsh and unsophisticated judgment, but the political discourse of 1960s Berkeley, where I grew up, lacked a certain refinement. In fact, to be honest, it was pretty much taken straight from Saturday morning cartoons. In our righteous view, "the people," whoever they were, were always being "oppressed" by The Man, a bloated GOP plutocrat mouthing pious moral maxims. It went without saying that Republicans were self-righteous, mean-spirited rich white men who secretly napalmed Cambodian villages, turned loose the dogs against civil rights marchers and dug the Carpenters. They were Bad, and if we could somehow get rid of them -- meanwhile taking lots of acid and listening to Hendrix -- Good Things would happen. Later, like many of my co-religionists, I became embarrassed by these sentiments. Such crude beliefs were unseemly. Sophistication demanded a more nuanced view. Republicans, I now realized, could be decent men and women who were just parroting the country-club line. Even the Reagan Age -- that endless period I as a Californian was forced to spend under the Great Communicator's genially callous thumb, while the Woolly Mammoths died out and Ice Ages came and went across the globe -- couldn't make me return to the wooden Stalinist sloganeering of my youth. I even reevaluated the Carpenters. And then came the Starr referral and Henry Hyde and the House Judiciary Committee vote, and I realized I had gotten it right the first time. When the Republicans in the full House vote to remove President Clinton from office, as they will almost certainly do, they will prove that those brain- dead radical stereotypes about them really do apply. They will be revealed as mean-spirited, partisan hacks, hypocrites, moral absolutists hiding their craven desire for vengeance and power beneath a ridiculously transparent façade of pious "deliberation" and "respect for law." The GOP will stand exposed before all of America as the party of vicious, petty ideologues who, in their outrageous desire to undo the results of two lawful elections, seized upon a grotesquely acquired legalistic evasion that falls so far short of meeting the constitutional standard of high crimes and misdemeanors as to be laughable. Or, let's give them the benefit of the doubt, as the ever-generous New York Times did in a recent editorial. Let's assume that some of them are actually sincere in their belief that lying about sex -- in an obvious vendetta case brought by a biased and obsessed "independent" counsel who,

[CTRL] Koreans Clone Human
-Caveat Lector- How soon before Cloned Clintons are acknowledged? Sherman Skolnick had claimed, as I recall, that there is a Clinton clone already. (I'll look for the exact story.) Wednesday December 16 10:45 AM ET Korea Team Says Human Clone Test Succeeds SEOUL (Reuters) - A South Korean medical research team said Wednesday it has succeeded in cultivating a human embryo using human cells in one of the first cloning experiments of its kind. Researchers at the infertility clinic of Kyunghee University Hospital in Seoul said they had cultivated a human embryo in its early stages using an unfertilized egg and a somatic cell -- those that make up most of the body -- donated by a woman in her 30s. Lee Bo-yon, a researcher with the hospital's infertility clinic, said the human embryo in the Kyunghee University experiment was last seen dividing into four cells before the operation was aborted. ``If implanted into a uterine wall of a carrier, we can assume that a human child would be formed and that it would have the same gene characteristics as that of the donor,'' Lee told Reuters. Lee said the research team would not attempt to take the cloning experiment further until there was a social, legal and moral consensus to support it. Lee said the experiment was, to his knowledge, one of the first to use only human cells in a cloning experiment. ``To our knowledge the Roslin Institute has already succeeded in this experiment, making us the second,'' Lee said, but added that he had not been able to confirm that himself. Lee said the experiment he conducted with his supervisor, Kim Sung-bo, used the same technique as that of Teruhiko Wakayama of the University of Hawaii, which was conducted with mice. In July, Wakayama and his supervisor, Ryuzo Yanagimachi, said they had produced 50 cloned mice from several different adults. The so-called Honolulu Technique is different from the technology used to create the now famous Dolly in 1996. Dolly's makers at Scotland's Roslin Institute used an electric current to fuse a cell from a sheep's mammary gland with the egg from another sheep that had the nucleus removed. The Hawaiian researchers said they scraped the DNA material out of the nucleus from a mouse egg and injected the nucleus of another mouse into it. They then ``chemically activated,'' or tricked the egg, into acting like a newly fertilized egg and start growing. The embryo was transferred into a surrogate mother, who gave birth to what the researchers believed were cloned mice. They then cloned the clone, and cloned that clone, essentially making one mouse both grandmother and the identical twin of the other. South Korea, like other countries, is grappling with the issue. An official in the science ministry's research and development department said the ministry was waiting for the National Assembly to pass legislation on human cloning. Some Korean lawmakers have said they would support limiting the research and development budgets of state-supported researchers if they continued cloning experiments. _ _ ___ Tue Dec 15 | Mon Dec 14 | Fri Dec 11 | Thu Dec 10 | Wed Dec 09 Index | Top Stories | Business | Tech | Politics | World | Local | Entertainment | Sports | Science | Health _ Questions or Comments Copyright © 1998 Reuters Limited.

[CTRL] Sherman Skolnick: Clinton Has Been Cloned
-Caveat Lector- Earlier story below, circa summer 1998, claims there's a Clinton clone. Conspiracy Nation -- Vol. 11 Num. 90 === ("Quid coniuratio est?") - THE ALLEGED CLINTON and THE KGB FILE By Sherman H. Skolnick Chairman, Citizens' Committee to Clean Up the Courts (Office: 773-375-5741; Recorded message: 773-731-1100) -- Long whispered about, a file now has surfaced from the KGB, the secret police of the former Soviet Union. Several commentators have the file and are silent cowards. Some declare the death of network broadcaster Brit Hume's son [1] is linked to this. Was it murder or suicide? The KGB file shows that the person identified as or calling himself William Jefferson Clinton has an exact double, except for a few details such as a recently removed mole and distinctive private parts. Hey: Do Paula Corbin Jones and Monica Lewinsky know the truth? For some 70 years, Russian scientists have perfected ways to create doubles. Mass media items about animal clones may be the way the press fakers skirt around the truth. And who publicly condemned the idea of manufacturing humans? Why, the alleged Clinton. (Which "Clinton" made the public statement?) Reporters traveling with the alleged Clinton talk among themselves about the double or clone. Which is which? Is there a "real" William Jefferson Clinton? Talkative reporters, however, can lose their Secret Service press credentials. Knowing about this was the Secret Service's top expert on physical surveillance of the President. That specialist was murdered with other presidential personnel through a sabotaged plane crash, August, 1996, near Jackson Hole, Wyoming. A projectile hit the plane, say military witnesses. (The alleged Clinton had left, earlier, by helicopter, to go to his birthday party.) The KGB file details the relationship of the alleged Clinton -- actually the alleged CLINTONS, plural -- with the Czechoslovak Communist Party Chief's son in Prague and at Oxford. The KGB threw junior off a roof to his death (the file gives the grisly details) because he discovered about the clone. The file, step by step, gives the chronology of how the alleged Clinton was groomed from an early age by both the CIA and the KGB. Useful was his split personality syndrome which often makes "Clinton" forget who he is and makes him not know murder from love. With young "Clinton" supposedly under =his= wing, the CIA Station Chief in London went along, hoping to unravel KGB methods, the file asserts. The alleged Clinton was tracked as he attended anti-war rallies in Europe -- set up by the American CIA but actually by KGB. Sort of a series of Chinese trick boxes. The CIA knew, the file shows, that the KGB paid for young Clinton's trip to Moscow and his stay at an expensive hotel there. To confuse matters, Clinton's pal Strobe Talbot was described as a "Marxist," to divert attention. To nail down his credibility with CIA, while KGB actually controlled the situation, the Soviets gave the alleged Clinton a secret transcript of Krushchev condemning Stalinists, the file shows. Numerous dates, amounts, and details, show the KGB was keeping track of the alleged Clinton's pal, Vincent W. Foster, Jr., and his acts as a super courier of illicit funds and money laundry operator, traveling great distances, including to the Soviet Union, years prior to Foster's short time as a White House deputy counsel in 1993. (National security is a reason for covering up the murder of Foster disguised as a suicide -- the CIA-KGB-NSA overlaps.) To confirm its authenticity and trip-up spy-watchers, the file has several Russian language code words. The file's blackmail possibilities are obvious: the alleged Clinton is a clone, part of a method perfected by Russian scientists. The file is loaded with blockbuster revelations, for example, that Lee Harvey Oswald was not the lone assassin of President Kennedy. Widely revealing the file details could bring down the American government. Later developments confirm all this. Former Director of Central Intelligence (DCIA) William Colby, early in 1996, joined in a business venture with the former long-time KGB Chief to market an electronic game on espionage. It was becoming obvious: Colby was a KGB mole; his business partner was a CIA mole. Just as Colby was about to devastate the U.S. government with the KGB file, he was assassinated, disguised as a boating accident. So far, FBI counter-intelligence thinks they have restrained the Russian mafiya, largely now headquartered in Chicago,
Re: [CTRL] Heads Up: Bill Clinton Is Finished
-Caveat Lector- In a message dated 98-12-15 18:21:39 EST, Che writes: I brought up Bu sh Rea gan to emphasize the similarities between the Republocrats Demicans. They all eat from the same dog dish. The purpose is not to distract but to point out that C1inton is part of a continuing pattern of abuse of pres idential power. Can't really argue with that. Che writes: Seems to me that he's somewhere to the right of Nixon. Right...Left... Both Statist for sure, the line between right and left is somewhat unclear to me. I say left because Clinton gave away parks and rivers to the United Nations and I consider them left. He sold/gave missle guidance systems to the Chinese which are Communist, the same for super computers and cryptographic know-how and equipment. Che writes: If you would just turn on your TV on a Sunday morning, or MSNBC just about any time (all Monica...all the time), you might change your tune. The few voices supportive of C1inton will be drowned out by those hurling bile invective at him. All I've heard about is the (all Monica...all the time) which has little to do with the serious crimes (treason) which Clinton is getting away with. Che writes: Did you ever read the "Pressgate" article in the 1st issue of Brill's Content? It was very critical of the trial by press leaks that Ken 5tarr has conducted. In an interview 5tarr virtually admits to the leaks (in violation of Rule 6E), giving the justification that they were necessary to counterspin information from the Wh1te H0use. Brill is also critical of the inability of the press to "bite the hand that feeds it" by questioning the legality of these leaks. He also criticized how the press replaced reportage of facts with speculation and conjecture by so-called "experts". In conclusion, the article is fairly damning of the press for failing to execute their duties as impartial reporters of fact. Even before the article was published, the media attacks began. Brill was painted as a C1inton stooge for a contribution he gave to the '92 campaign (none in '96). I did not see anyone in the mainstream media even address Brill's criticisms - they were too busy slurring him, questioning his accuracy, and deflecting the discussion to unrelated matters. It was all so consistent it seemed orchestrated. Very supportive of the articles you posted on the lack of an independent press. I haven't read the Brill report, but I did read about Starr leaking items to the press. I also read some articles about the White House leaking items to the press to make Starr look bad. Who did what? Probably both are true and as far as I'm concerned if Starr broke the law, then he should also be prosecuted, but I'm not sure that rule 6E is a law or a guide line... at the very least toss him as a special prosecuter and put someone in there that will investigate the more serious crimes... not that to lie under oath is not serious. Che writes: Now, you may see this as just sour grapes on their part, but there's more to it than that. The power elites definitely felt threatened by this article, and trained their media guns on Brill to discredit him. If the media was really "support[ing] C1inton all the time", then they would have fallen all over themselves to dig deeper into the questions Brill raised about 5tarr's office. By no stretch of the imagination can their attacks on Brill be construed as being supportive of C1inton. An important point to remember is that an attack on 5tarr does not necessarily indicate support of C1inton. Some of us who consider C1inton to be guilty of something think that the letter of the law should be followed, and that the O I C represents a threat to what little democracy we have left. The ends DO NOT justify the means. I really need to look close at this Brill report. You are right that the law should be followed in the impeachment proceedings, otherwise it will just be thrown out later on. As for Democracy... we are supposed to be a Republic. At 03:21 PM 12/13/98 -0800, nurev wrote: High crimes, treason, bribery. C1inton has committed all of these. The problem is that the rest of the more powerful politicians have done the same. What you are witnessing is an attempted coup by the right wing. They want to throw C1inton off the apple cart without tipping over the apple cart. Sit back with this in mind and watch how it's done. It's been done before. The 1ran/C0ntra hearings are the blueprint for what happens next. The real crimes will be avoided. The minor issues will be exagerated, and they will get C1inton out or cripple him severely enough to render him useless. UNLESS THINGS GET OUT OF CONTROL IN THE SEN ATE. This is the best we have to hope for as citizens. That they will hate each other enough to do each other real damage in the eyes of the voters, hopefully ending in some seriously needed reforms. This is essentially my take on the situation as well.
