[CTRL] AP: Judge To Fight Testifying Vs Clinton
-Caveat Lector- http://dailynews.yahoo.com/htx/ap/20001006/us/brf_paula_jones_judge_1.html Judge To Fight Testifying Vs Clinton TULSA, Okla. (AP) - The federal judge who held President Clinton in contempt of court in the Paula Jones sexual harassment case said Friday she would fight any attempt to make her testify in Arkansas proceedings to disbar Clinton. ``If they summon me as a witness, I will file a motion to quash,'' U.S. District Court Judge Susan Webber Wright said during a question-and-answer period after a lecture at the University of Tulsa College of Law. Wright found Clinton in contempt in the Jones case and fined him more than $90,000 last year. The judge ruled that the president gave misleading testimony in a deposition about his relationship with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky. Wright eventually ruled that the Lewinsky material was not essential to Jones' case and later dismissed the case altogether. Wright and the Southeastern Legal Foundation of Atlanta referred Clinton to the Arkansas Supreme Court Committee on Professional Conduct, which could disbar Clinton. The judge did not say if she expected to be called to testify. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Transmeta debuts in Japan; U.S. release in three weeks
-Caveat Lector- Transmeta debuts in Japan; U.S. release in three weeks By Michael Kanellos Staff Writer, CNET News.com October 6, 2000, 1:50 p.m. PT URL: http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1006-200-2949585.html The long wait for notebooks based on Transmeta's Crusoe chip has ended, as Sony has released in Japan its first Vaio laptops containing the chip. Vaio PictureBook laptops containing Crusoe processors were released in Tokyo on Saturday (Japan time), Sony executives confirmed. For consumers, the most likely place to find the new notebooks will be the Akihabara, Tokyo's sprawling, modern electronics shopping area, said sources in Japan. Sony will follow up with Crusoe-based Vaios for the U.S. market Oct. 25, according to Mark Hanson, vice president and general manager of Vaio PC for Sony America. The appearance of the notebooks will mark a watershed moment in Transmeta's history. The company has developed a family of Intel-compatible processors that purportedly consume less power than competing chips from Intel or Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). As a result, Transmeta notebooks promise to be thin and light (because they need less insulation and no fans) and capable of running longer than other notebooks on a battery charge. To get the same performance from a standard processor "I would have to lose some mobility by adding fans" or batteries, Hanson said. Sony's Crusoe notebook, for instance, can run 2.5 hours to 5 hours on a single capacity battery, he said. The same notebooks run on Intel chips would last 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours with the same battery. What's the catch? Transmeta's claims haven't been tested by third parties. Although the Crusoe family debuted in January, neither the chips nor products containing the chips have been released on the open market. Analysts and independent benchmark testers have also complained about a lack of access to demonstration models. "I don't know if any third parties have been able to get one. I know I haven't," said Nathan Brookwood, principal analyst at Insight 64, who added, "The claims that are being made about battery life are a bit hard to swallow. The battery life should only improve by 10 to 20 percent." Besides power consumption, analysts will be curious to see how well Crusoe notebooks stack up against laptops containing Pentium IIIs or other chips. Crusoe chips perform many functions in software that other chips perform in hardware. Invariably, this will cause a performance hit, Brookwood and other chip experts have said. The question now is whether the dent in performance is substantial or irrelevant. Dave Ditzel, Transmeta's CEO, said in September that Crusoe-based notebooks will perform just as well as competing chips in real-world circumstances. "We designed Crusoe to deliver good performance with maximum battery life," he said. Hanson also pointed out that the new chips will be going into notebooks that haven't been able to take advantage of the latest technologies from Intel or AMD. The Vaio line the Crusoe chip will be featured in has, to date, depended on Pentium MMX or Pentium II processors, not Pentium IIIs. "We're getting a performance boost from where we were before," he said. Recently, Transmeta filed documents to raise $140 million in an initial public offering. The Vaio PictureBook CIVN to be released in the United States will weigh 2.2 pounds, contain a 600-MHz Crusoe processor, and measure less than an inch thick. It will sell for an estimated retail price of $2,299.99, according to Sony Both the Japanese and U.S. versions of the notebook will contain a built-in camera that effectively allows consumers "to carry a video camera with them," Hanson said. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

-Caveat Lector- From http://www.chroniclesmagazine.org/NewsST100600.htm }}Begin Thursday, October 5, 2000 WILL ALBRIGHT STOP SAVING MILOSEVIC? by Srdja Trifkovic With demonstrators commanding the streets of Belgrade, Slobodan Milosevic is fighting for his political life and the issue of his physical survival may not be too far in the background. It is high time, the last minute in fact, for the U.S. policy in the Balkans to adjust to the new reality. For a long time Mrs. Albright and her team at the State Department refused to recognize that Dr. Vojislav Kostunica is a real force in Serbian politics. They tried to hedge their bets: if Milosevic falls, theyll place his successors into a straightjacket on Kosovo and cooperation with the Hague tribunal, while claiming credit for encouraging democracy in Serbia. If he survives the turmoil and steals the election, it will justify sanctions and even future bombings. As Tom Fleming put it a few weeks ago, Albright is licking her bloody chops in expectation of another gory meal. Things are not going Albrights way in Belgrade now, however, and unless Washington -- even at this late stage -- changes its tune the U.S. will be rendered irrelevant in the post- Milosevic Balkan architecture, while Russia and the Europeans will be the winners. For some weeks now the Albright game, conducted with characteristically little skill and finesse, amounted to overt verbal condemnation of Milosevic and expressions of support for the opposition, while at the same time everything was done to help Milosevic survive. Lets look at the facts as reported by others. Kostunica not Clinton administration's man, reported UPIs Martin Sieff on September 25, a day after the Yugoslav election: Kostunica's rise has proven to be far from welcome to the Clinton administration, especially to Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright. Albright has spearheaded the efforts to make an example of Milosevic by having him handed over to the International Court of Justice in The Hague, capital of the Netherlands, and tried there as a war criminal. But Kostunica implacably opposes having Milosevic or any other prominent Serb tried as a war criminal, no matter how terrible was their conduct during the last nine years of conflict in the fragmented former communist federal state. He also regularly denounces the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia last year as criminal. And he flatly opposes granting independence to Kosovo, Sieff continued, which will present Washington with a far trickier problem than Milosevic does: U.S. leaders -- Republican and Democrat alike are now used to attacking Milosevic as, if not a Hitler, then at least a Saddam Hussein figure. They have made clear they hope that a pro-American opposition candidate will eventually succeed him and agreed to U.S.-mediated solutions to Bosnia and Kosovo. But Kostunica is not pro-American. He is as virulent a critic of recent U.S. policies as Milosevic himself. And he has said he is determined to not to give an inch on the Kosovo issue . . . From the Clinton administration's point of view, the trouble with Kostunica is precisely that he does appear to accurately express the democratic aspirations of the Serbian people. The only trouble is that they are not the aspirations that the Clinton administration would like them to be. The Administration accordingly went out of its way to scuttle any possible deal between Milosevic and his opponents that would entail a peaceful transition. When Russian President Vladimir Putin offered to mediate by inviting both Milosevic and Kostunica to Moscow last Monday, Mrs. Albright was quick in torpedoing the initiative. The State Department announced that the U.S. would expect Russia to turn over Milosevic to the Hague tribunal the moment he should show up in Moscow. There's an indictment that calls for any country to hand him over to The Hague, State Department spokesman Philip Reeker said on Tuesday, October 3. We expect the indictment to be followed. Asked how Putin's offer to mediate could take shape if the moment Milosevic showed up he would face extradition to the Hague, Reeker said: That's a question for Putin and Milosevic to discuss. Reekers final remark left no doubt of the position in Washington: We believe (Milosevic) should be out of power, out of Serbia and in The Hague to face justice. Period. Dr. Kostunica accused the United States of placing the destiny of one man ahead of the fate of an entire nation, but admitted that the Hague indictment brings us a lot of headache: It helped convince Milosevic that for him these elections are a question of life or death The whole of Serbia is being held hostage to one man. The Russians were more blunt. Washington has thereby done Mr. Milosevic one more service: He now has a pretext for not traveling to Moscow, commented even the usually pro-Western Kommersant on October 4, and took exception to the haughty tone as
[CTRL] RUE: Former Starr Aide Not Guilty in News Leak Case
-Caveat Lector- Friday October 6 4:05 PM ET Former Starr Aide Not Guilty in News Leak Case WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Kenneth Starr's former spokesman in the Monica Lewinsky (news - web sites) probe was found not guilty on Friday of criminal contempt of court for lying about his role in news leaks during President Clinton (news - web sites)'s impeachment trial. The Justice Department (news - web sites) had asked a federal judge to find that Charles Bakaly, the former spokesman for independent counsel Starr, be held in contempt for lying in a sworn court declaration when he denied that he leaked secret information to the New York Times. ``The court concludes that the government has not proved its charges beyond a reasonable doubt and therefore the court finds that Mr. Bakaly is not guilty of criminal contempt,'' Chief U.S. District Judge Norma Holloway Johnson said in a written ruling. The Jan. 31, 1999, article cited unnamed ``associates'' of Starr as saying the independent counsel had decided Clinton could be indicted while in office for perjury and obstruction of justice for trying to hide his affair with the former White House intern Lewinsky. The story appeared as the Senate considered impeachment charges that arose from Starr's investigation into the Lewinsky matter. The Senate later acquitted Clinton of the perjury and obstruction charges. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] CNS: E-Mail Special Counsel Sought
-Caveat Lector- E-Mail Special Counsel Sought CNSNews.com Friday, Oct. 6, 2000 A congressional committee is asking for the appointment of a special counsel to investigate the circumstances surrounding hundreds of thousands of missing White House e-mails. A 140-page report released Thursday by the House Committee on Government Reform stated that "a special counsel is needed to investigate obstruction of justice and perjury charges" against White House and Justice Department lawyers for not correcting what the committee called "false deposition testimony" from an administration computer specialist. Suspicion on Gore The report casts a suspicious light on Vice President Al Gore, whose office is accused of configuring the Office of the Vice President e-mail system in such a manner that it "would not store his records in a way that would permit compliance with document requests," according to the report. "There can be little doubt that the vice president's advisers knew that their actions would permit his office to operate in such a manner that would make it less susceptible to oversight," the report continued. In fact, a reconstruction of a fraction of the missing e-mails by the Federal Bureau of Investigation showed a number of notes indicating that Gore may have known more about the 1996 Buddhist temple fund-raising event than he previously testified to. One message noted in the committee report stated that the "the vice president was committed to do a fundraising event in Los Angeles on April 29, 1996." That particular e-mail, dated April 9, 1996, was called "significant" by the committee because there was "no mention of an event at another venue - a direct contradiction of representations that a separate fundraising event had been scheduled and then cancelled at the last minute." Further complicating matters is that federal law requires that all government records be preserved through the White House Automated Records Management System, otherwise known as ARMS. The committee report claims that Todd Campbell, a lawyer on Gore's staff, "personally decided that the vice president would not store his records in a way that would permit compliance with document requests," and accuses the Office of the Vice President of "re-inventing government to stay above the law and congressional oversight." Because so many e-mails were not stored in the ARMS system, the committee concluded that Gore's office "appears to have adopted a prophylactic program to guarantee that fewer documents would exist in the event that document requests were made." According to the committee report, the White House e-mail system failed to archive correspondence between September 1996 and November 1998, making it difficult if not impossible for the administration to fully comply with subpoenas and requests for documents in campaign finance investigations and the independent counsel inquiry that culminated in the impeachment of President Clinton. Historic Implications The significance of the e-mail failure was noted in the report with historic implications. "If senior White House personnel were aware of these problems... then the e-mail matter can fairly be called the most significant obstruction of congressional investigations in US history," the report said. "Hundreds of thousands of e-mails were never reviewed to comply with subpoenas," said committee Chairman Rep. Dan Burton, R-Ind., in a statement Thursday. "And I'm not just talking about this committee's subpoenas. I'm talking about Justice Department subpoenas. I'm talking about a court order from a federal judge." Burton dismissed reactions to the e-mail controversy as a "tempest in a teacup," saying the missing correspondence creates "a documentary trail of events as they unfold. In the computer era that we live in, you can't conduct an investigation without reviewing e-mails." Among the charges included in the committee report are allegations that White House officials not only threatened private sector workers contracted to find and fix problems with the e-mail system, but also forbid those workers from taking notes on their work and consulting with their supervisors. At least one employee of Northrop Gumman, the company that worked on the e-mail problem, was threatened by a White House staff member "with jail if he disclosed the existence of the problem," according to the report. Burton's committee said this intimidation resulted in inquiries by Congress and other federal agencies being "obstructed in their legitimate investigations," as well as increasing the taxpayer costs of all the investigations by dragging them out. White House officials were also accused of showing "disregard for the welfare" of Northrop Grumman staff by not letting them discuss their work on the e-mail system with their supervisors. White House aide Mark Lindsay earlier said he didn't want workers discussing the information "around the water cooler," but the

[CTRL] WT: Policies steering Russia to corruption
-Caveat Lector- Policies steering Russia to corruption Relevancy: 100; ( The Washington Times ) Amos Perlmutter; 09-27-2000 Size: 8K Reading Level: 12. Rep. Christopher Cox, California Republican and chairman of the House Policy Committee, and members of the Speaker's Advisory Group on Russia have just published a most devastating report on Russia's road to corruption, in which the Clinton-Gore administration is found guilty of failing the Russian people and exporting government instead of free enterprise to Russia. They strengthened the central government with inappropriate and misunderstood policies toward a post-Cold War Russia. Despite the fact it is a Republican partisan report, all of the indictment can be found in the American press and media over the past eight years, as the footnotes to the report demonstrate. The report also had the benefit of an advisory group that includes Democrats, Republicans, Russian and American diplomats, scholars and experts. It is impeccable scholarly and policy analysis of the Clinton-Gore foreign policy toward Russia. The major indictees are Vice President Al Gore, Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott, and then Deputy Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers. Under this troika, according to the report, "By focusing on strengthening the finances of the Russian government and on transforming state-owned monopolies into private monopolies, instead of building the fundamentals of a free enterprise system, the Clinton administration ensured that billions in Western economic assistance to Russia would amount to mere temporizing." The main culprit, of course, is President Clinton, who was unwilling to involve himself in foreign policy generally, and in critical issues of the U.S. policy toward Russia specifically. This administration forfeited a monumental historical opportunity to design an American post-Cold War policy that could usher Russia into the democratic Western world and into free enterprise. Compare this with Harry Truman, who succeeded in helping design a policy that moved Germany from its Nazi ignominiousness into a Western democratic society and restored Germany as a part of European and Western civilization. Mr. Clinton did not have the vision to do for Russia what Truman did for Germany. Truman did not leave the German-European Cold War policy to his vice president. Truman and his most senior advisers were responsible, as a commander-in-chief should be, for dealing with the most significant event after the utter defeat of Nazism. For 50 years we waged a Cold War to bring an end to the Soviet Union. When the end came, President Clinton had no historical or intellectual understanding of the significance of turning Russia away from central government and authoritarianism. He delegated his leadership responsibility in this area to the vice president, which meant it actually went to chief Russian adviser, Strobe Talbott. "The structure of the policy- making troika left the rest of the government either unwilling or unable to critically assess the direction of the Clinton administration policy." The Cox report lists other fundamental flaws of the Clinton administration Russian policy: A strong preference for strengthening Russia's central government; a close personal association with a few Russian officials who were among the main culprits of the corruption, especially with the corrupt former Prime Minister of Russia Viktor Chernomyrdin, who amassed more than $5 billion during the manipulation of privatization of energy after the collapse of the Soviet Union; a narrow focus on the Russian executive branch at the expense of the emerging democratic forces outside the Kremlin; "an arrogance toward Russia's nascent democratic constituencies that led to attempts at democratic ends through decidedly non-democratic means"; and, above all, in light of increasing corruption and mounting evidence of the failure of their policies, the troika was unwilling to recognize their monumental errors and continued to support a failing policy. Mr. Clinton effectively delegated the management of U.S.-Russian relations to Mr. Gore in April 1993 with the establishment of the Gore-Chernomyrdin Commission, the function and structure of which "offered a perfect blueprint for the eventual failure of the entire Clinton administration policy toward Russia. By superseding normal policy-making and well-established intra- and intergovernmental channels of communication, the Gore-Chernomyrdin Commission would come to impede the information flow to decision-makers in Washington . . . distracted Russian government officials from what should have been their main focus: constructing the essential elements of a free enterprise." The most critical indictment, next to the absence of the president, is the report's finding that the Gore-Chernomyrdin Commission "contributed to a deliberately uninformed U.S. policy toward Russia." The report faults the administration for failure to establish

Wisconsin students working to free Texas convict October 7, 2000Web posted at: 2:29 AM EDT (0629 GMT) MADISON, Wisconsin (AP) -- Hours of work by University of Wisconsin-Madison law students and professors may soon pay off for a Texas man who has spent the past decade serving life in prison for murder. The Wisconsin Innocence Project successfully fought for DNA testing that could set Christopher Ochoa free and is now awaiting word from the Texas district attorney handling the case on what will happen next. Ochoa, 33, and another man were convicted for the 1988 rape and murder of Nancy DePriest, 20, a Pizza Hut worker in Austin, Texas. Both men were sentenced to life prison terms. Preliminary DNA tests showed Ochoa was not linked to the crime, said John Pray, co-director of the Wisconsin Innocence Project. The Capital Times reported the preliminary test results this week. The project is a two-semester course for second- and third-year law students. Pray said the Travis County district attorney's office did the DNA testing after the project began investigating Ochoa's case. Travis County District Attorney Ronnie Earle did not immediately return a telephone message Friday from The Associated Press. Assistant District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg told The Capital Times, "The only thing we're saying right now is that we are looking at the case." Keith Findley, the project's other co-director, said the district attorney's office is looking into reopening Ochoa's case. Wendy Seffrood, a third-year law student, sent letters to the district attorney, crime labs, hospitals and anyone else who may have handled evidence, urging them to preserve it for DNA testing. "The technology is vastly improved over where we were ... at the time the crime was committed," Seffrood said. Pray said some district attorney's offices and crime labs keep evidence for a long period while others immediately destroy it. "Mr. Ochoa is a lucky man because the DA didn't throw away the evidence," Pray said. Ochoa confessed to the crime, but Pray said he probably did so because he faced the death penalty. Students Cory Tennison and Brian VanDenzen were assigned to Ochoa's case at the start of the fall semester. "We've just been corresponding with Chris and updating him with what's going on," Tennison said. "He's still a little cautious. ... I think that he's just really looking forward to being a free man again." Tennison said they are looking into a report that another Texas inmate may have confessed to the murder in a 1996 letter to authorities. Findley said if Ochoa is set free, it would be the first case the project has resolved. It has received hundreds of requests from inmates and family members requesting its services. Participants screen the letters and have worked on only 40 to 50 cases since the project started in September 1998, he said. "They have to be pretty compelling for us to look at them," Pray said.

[CTRL] Satanic Symbolism Surrounding the Death of Princess Diana
Home Satanic Symbolism Surrounding the Death of Princess Diana (I wrote this piece principally from the material presented in David Icke's book "The Biggest Secret". If anyone has more details or insights please mail me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Thanks. Nick) Diana's death following a car accident in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel, in the early morning of August 31st 1997 has raised a few eyebrows among occult groups worldwide. The following has been noted: The city of Paris was founded in the sixth century AD by the Sicambrian Franks, an aryan race of middle-eastern extraction. They were keen followers of occult pracices, and ritual and ceremonial magic was integral to their daily life. They settled first on the island now known as the Isle-de-la-Cite - a place they believed was a major power vortex on the Earth's surface, marked today by the Notre Dame Cathedral, built by the Templars. The central religious deity the Franks worshipped was the Moon Goddess known to the Romans as Diana, (aka Artemis, Isis, and others). The Franks built an underground chamber for the worship of Diana outside the Isle-de-la-Cite. Sacrifices to the Moon Goddess were made here, and the chamber was also used for the settling of certain disputes. The present day location of this underground chamber is...The Pont de l'Alma tunnel. Allusion to this is made in the name, Al-mah meaning the Moon Goddess in the ancient language of the Franks. Furthermore, a bizarre monument was placed outside the tunnel's entrance in the mid-1980's by the Parisian government. Allegedly a "symbol of Liberty", and a memorial to French servicemen who died in the Second World War, the monument consists of a torch over a black five-pointed star. Those familiar with the occult may be aware that this is not a symbol much associated with liberty. The Pont and Place de l'Alma are also the sites of major crossroads in the Parisian street system. The Moon Goddess is frequently said to be as female energy form composed of three aspects, Diana, Luna and Hecate. These represent the energy as manifest on Earth, Heaven and the Underworld. The latter, Hecate, the Queen of the Underworld, is very heavily associated with occult practices and ritual sacrifice. "Hecate's Day" is August 13th, but Satanic rituals, (black as opposed to white magic), to Hecate are better carried out on the 31st, reversal of numerals popular in Satanism. Sacrifices to Hecate are also invariably carried out at crossroads, places symbolic of the meeting of ley lines. Add these observations to the facts that Diana apparently bled to death at the scene of the crash, (absolutely fundamental to such a sacrifice), despite the rapid presence of medics; that the police radio system went off-air for twenty minutes at the time of the accident; that the surveillance camera system monitoring the route the Mercedes took malfuncioned the night of the crash; and that the car crashed into the 13th pillar in the tunnel, (the number 13, along with 33, are the two most powerful numbers in Western occultism) and you have a pretty good conspiracy theory. The underlying contention being that there exists a Satanic group located at the extreme apex of our society, practising ritual magic.

-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! HEROIC PRO-LIFE SHERIFF LOSES ELECTION LEE COUNTY, Fla., Oct 5 (LSN.ca) - Lee County Sheriff John McDougall, an outstanding sheriff, pro-lifer and Christian has been forced into retirement after losing in a run-off election. Rocky Graziano, Public Information Officer for Lee County Sheriff's Office told LifeSite that McDougall, who has served as Sheriff of the county for the last twelve years, was very much "at peace" with the loss. After the result was tallied McDougall was swarmed by critical reporters, wanting to pin his loss on his strident views. He responded by removing a single piece of paper from his pocket, which he said contained both his victory and losing speech. There were only three words on the paper: "Thank you Jesus." In January 1998 Sheriff McDougal sent a letter to U.S. District Judge Anne E. Thompson, of New Jersey, criticizing her decision to scrap a law banning partial birth abortion in her state. In the letter McDougall said, "I would like to remind you that your ruling on the partial-birth abortion bill is nothing more than a defense of evil. The framers of the Constitution would roll over in their graves if they knew their Declaration of Independence would give credence to this American holocaust. ... What is 'partial' about abortion? Just because the baby killers hold and prevent the head from coming out of the birth canal, does that dehumanize the rest of the baby still protruding?" McDougall has sent well over 1,000 letters to other state and U.S. politicians over the abortion issue. In March this year Sheriff McDougall told reporters, "I'm in the business of protecting people and it's frustrating that I can't protect these little babies.

[CTRL] Should police have the power to handcuff and jail people who don't wear seatbelt
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Should police have the power to handcuff and jail people who don't wear seatbelts? WASHINGTON, DC -- The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear five cases this session that involve the power of police to stop, search, and arrest you for drug and seatbelt violations -- proving that such "victimless crimes" are now the driving force behind the assault on our Constitutionally protected liberties, the Libertarian Party said today. "If police win the right to haul you off in handcuffs for not wearing a seatbelt, scan your house at whim with a thermal imaging gun, and set up random roadblocks so dogs can sniff your car for drugs then victimless crimes will be to blame," said Steve Dasbach, the party's national director. "These are the issues the Supreme Court will decide this term - - - and every one of these frightening expansions of police power is being justified by so-called crimes that have no victims. The War on Victimless Crimes has turned into an all-out War on the Bill of Rights." Starting this week, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear five major cases to determine whether law enforcement has the right to stop, search, test, restrain, and arrest people to enforce drug and seatbelt laws. The cases include: * Indianapolis vs. Edmond, which will decide whether police can set up random roadblocks on public streets to question motorists and use drug-sniffing dogs to inspect their vehicles. * Ferguson vs. Charleston, which will decide whether hospitals can secretly test pregnant women for cocaine, and turn the results over to police. * Illinois vs. McArthur, which will decide whether police can restrain people from entering their homes while police are seeking a warrant to search the premises for drugs. * Atwater vs. Lago Vista, which will decide whether people can be handcuffed and hauled off to jail for not wearing a seatbelt. * Kyllo vs. United States, which will determine whether police can scan homes with a thermal imaging gun, searching for heat patterns that may indicate a marijuana-growing operation. What do all these cases have in common? They all seek a dramatic expansion of police power and they all involves "crimes" where there is no victim, noted Dasbach. "The criminal justice debate is no longer about what is permissible when catching violent criminals like murderers, rapists, and robbers -- it's now about how far law enforcement can go in violating the Fourth Amendment to catch people who harm no one but themselves," he said. The cases being heard by the Supreme Court are not an unexpected side-effect of victimless crime laws, but a natural consequence, said Dasbach. "There's a reason why police aren't setting up random roadblocks to find people who have been the victims of robbery or a violent crime," he said."In those kinds of cases, people go to the police to seek justice. But with drug and seatbelt laws, there is no victim to complain -- just people engaging in consensual behavior that harms no one but themselves. "As a result, law enforcement must engage in police-state behavior to catch the so-called criminals. To combat victimless crimes, police use sting operations, paid informers, anonymous tips, no-knock raids, warrantless searches, and high-tech surveillance. Their impulse is to always push the boundaries of the Fourth Amendment -- until they begin to routinely violate everyone's privacy and rights." It's that last aspect that should be most troubling to Americans, said Dasbach, even to people who don't use drugs or violate seatbelt laws. "When police set up a random roadblock, a hundred innocent people are inconvenienced and threatened for every one person who is arrested," he said. "Your Constitutional rights are violated, your freedom is limited, and your safety is diminished -- just so police can catch a few individuals who engage in peaceful behavior the government has criminalized." These five cases give the Supreme Court an opportunity to draw a "line in the sand" about how far law enforcement can go to fight victimless crimes, said Dasbach. "The Supreme Court has an opportunity to decide what kind of country we will live in," he said. "Will it be an America where any violation of the Bill of Rights is justified in the name of a War on Victimless Crimes? Or will it be an America where ordinary people can live in freedom, privacy, and safety, and where the Bill of Rights is respected? That's the real issue on this year's Supreme Court docket." -- *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

[CTRL] CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATORS LINK GORE PROGRAM TO MASSIVE FRAUD, WASTE
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! A HREF="http://www.vetsforbush.net/vetsforbush.netx.html"VetsforBush.net - VETERANS STAND - Gore Waste/A http://www.vetsforbush.net/vetsforbush.netx.html CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATORS LINK GORE PROGRAM TO MASSIVE FRAUD, WASTE, AND ABUSE OF HISTORICAL PROPORTIONS -- PART 1 ARLINGTON, VA (Sep 26) - Of all of Al Goreâs highly publicized fibs and exaggerations, his âReinventing Govermentâ program may turn out to be his biggest âdirty little secretâ yet, and the administrationâs greatest scandal -- one that impacts national security, the budget, and every government-run program on the books. A little-publicized congressional and General Accounting Office (GAO) investigation, concluded in September 1998, but largely buried until now, indicates that Vice President Al Goreâs âReinventing Governmentâ program was directly tied to, and largely responsible for, a massive growth in government and contracting fraud, theft, and corruption cases during the Clinton Administration -- fraud in which literally âtrillionsâ of dollars in bookkeeping figures were âmanipulated up and down, back and forth,â to hide untold billions of dollars in fraud and thefts. The investigator told VetsforBush.net that in CY 1999 alone, a sum total of $6.7 Trillion in âadjustmentsâwere made to cover incredible levels of mismanagement, neglect and criminal activities. Speaking on condition of anonymity, one of the investigators -- an expert on fraud, waste, and abuse in general, and the âGore-connectionâ in particular -- said that while the increase in government-related abuses were known and discussed within certain Capitol Hill congressional committees, few legislators and virtually no one in the public sector had drawn the connection between an historical descent into âutter chaosâ in government accounting procedures and Al Goreâs direct oversight in reshaping government bureaucracy. The significance of the Gore-Chaos-Corruption connection is that previous disclosures during the Clinton era focused on the President or his White House staffers, allowing the Vice President to deflect criticism as not falling within his personal or professional bailiwick. The congressional and GAO investigators believe that Goreâs ill-conceived and poorly executed âReinventing Governmentâ programs resulted in fiscal responsibility and financial accounting safeguards being âtossed out the window.â The implications, the source said, are staggering not only for the Defense Department (DOD) programs they examined and the military readiness standards that have been devastated, but for any government programs affected by Goreâs âReinventionâ program. The programs affected may constitute virtually all aspects of the Executive Branchâs Federal Government offices and their domestic, foreign, and financial programs, including Social Security, Medicare, the military, and all procurement and acquisition channels government-wide. âContrary to popular opinion, and even sentiment in the Congress,â the source said, âthe problem is not with levels of congressional budget allocations. We already have enough money in the budget to deal with all programs on the books. The problem is with fraud, waste, and abuse. We have more money than we can responsibly control.â The investigator commented that if Texas Governor George W. Bush were elected President, one of his first priorities might be to undertake a GAO or independent audit of the entire Clinton-Gore era handling of accounting, and should form an independent commission akin to the Grace Commission formed by President Ronald Reagon early in his administration. âThere has always been graft in government and contracting circles,â the investigator admitted, âand we have prosecuted them before, and even during the Clinton years. The problem is that under Goreâs program of reinventing government, accounting irresponsibility, mismanagement, fraud, waste, abuse, and -- in spite of high-sounding words -- the âacceptable level of corruptionâ have reached historic proportions.â As an example, the investigator cited some of the âbuzz-wordsâ and definitions instituted under the Gore program that generated or facilitated an estimated $6.7 Trillion in âfiscal manipulation of figuresâ to allow accounting mistakes, oversights, and fraud to be âadjusted,â rearranged, or even covered-up in CY 1999 alone. This is not to say, the investigator explained, that the acutal monetary values involved were $6.7 Trillion, but rather that the sum total of âback-and-forth, top-to-bottomâ numbers that were finagled totaled that amount. âFinancial adjustments,â he said, âis itself a code word for not only correcting legitimate errors and oversights, but for covering the institutionalization of fraud and for âcooking the books.ââ Under the Gore

-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! __O__ EDITORIAL EXEGESIS "Empowerment is the theme of the initiatives proposed by George W. Bush. Let individuals control at least part of their own retirement packages Let parents in failing schools receive federal aid directly and use it to make choices about their children's education. Let the elderly have a choice of health plans, as federal employees do. Let individuals keep more of their own money rather than ship it off to be distributed by politicians in Washington. ...Al Gore, by contrast, speaks for an older, more paternalistic order. The most important issue before the nation is protecting the elderly from the high cost of prescriptions. ... There is nothing wrong with our schools that more money won't cure. We can afford Social Security and Medicare promises if only we put tax revenues in a 'lock box.' And while taxpayers can earn tax cuts through behavior approved in Washington, as a moral question the money is the government's to distribute fairly rather than belonging to those who earned it. In short, Vice President Gore and the Democrats speak for the past, while Gov. Bush and the Republicans speak for the future. ... [Mr. Gore] seems intent on recreating the Democratic Party agenda of the 1950s, if not of the 1930s." --Wall Street Journal __O__ BODY POLITIC THERE HE GOES AGAIN "[R]ight out of the box, the vice president began hedging the truth." --Boston Globe. "At the first opportunity, he lied." --New York Post That most erudite of Democrats, Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, once noted, "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion but not his own facts." Apparently, based on his debate performance last Tuesday night, Albert Gore has decided there is "no controlling legal authority" concerning facts. Gore repeatedly took credit for the economy. Bush missed a grand opportunity to pick up a tried and true line from Ronald Reagan: "There he goes again. Albert, you didn't invent the economy." Gore said that the country had a triple dip recession in 1992, but the current economic expansion began, by all reputable economic estimates, in March 1991, almost two years before he took office. Fact: Even Gore's own budget office (June 28, 1999 OMB Mid-Session Review) states, "The economic expansion that began in April 1991" Gore said that he would balance the budget. Fact: The nonpartisan Citizens Against Government Waste estimates that Gore's total spending in the first five years of his administration totals $2.2 trillion (three times Bush's $712 billion.) The Congressional Budget Office estimates that, in the same period, the general revenue and Social Security surpluses will be a total of $1.4 trillion. Gore's "balanced budget" creates more deficit spending than Mr. Bush proposes in total new spending. Gore said that he wants to cut taxes for middle class families. Fact: In 1992, the Clinton-Gore campaign said it "includes $104 billion in tax cuts over four years for the middle class, the working poor, and corporations that make smart investments to create jobs." But after taking office, Gore cast the tie breaking vote on the largest tax increase in U.S. history, including $115 billion in higher personal income taxes, $31 billion in higher gasoline taxes, $25 billion in higher taxes on Social Security benefits, and $29 billion in more Medicare taxes. (Congressional Budget Office) Gore said that Governor Bush spends more on the wealthiest 1% of Americans than on education, health care, drugs, and defense combined. Fact: The largest percentage cuts in Mr. Bush's tax plan go to those with the lowest incomes: A family of four making $35,000 would get a 100% cut in their income tax, about $1,500. A family of four making $50,000 would get a 50% cut in their income tax, about $2,000. A family of four making $75,000 would get a 25% cut in their income tax, about $2,500. Under the Bush plan, "the wealthiest 1%" actually pay a larger percentage of total taxes than they do now. The share of income taxes paid by people making over $100,000 will rise to 64.1% from 61.9%. The bipartisan Joint Committee on Taxation estimates that the Bush tax plan will save taxpayers $1.3 trillion over 2001-10, about 25% of the $4.6 trillion estimated surplus under current tax rates. Gore said, "I have actually not questioned Bush's experience. I have questioned his proposals." Fact: In a recent New York Times article, Gore said of Bush, "Does he have the experience to be president?" Gore crowed that he fought for welfare reform. Fact: Bill Clinton, Al Gore smiling at his side, vetoed welfare reform not once, but twice. After public opinion swung in favor of welfare reform, Clinton-Gore signed it into law only then to provide all manner of "exemptions." Gore had no role at all in welfare reform! Gore said that he would take on big

But it was chock full o' missed opportunities for George Bush to make the clear case for freedom and liberty. (Apparently, Mr. Bush's handlers did not pay attention to the Tuesday Brief's section listing the questions and zingers our readers wanted to hear George W. pin on Albert Gore.) Before commenting on Bush v. Gore -- more specifically Albert Gore's "facts" -- we should note that Dick Cheney missed few opportunities in his debate with Joe Lieberman. Unlike Mr. Bush, who repeatedly failed to challenge Gore's assertion that he invented the economy, the highlight of Cheney v. Lieberman -- the most uproarious moment of either debate -- came when Gore's veep was giving his man credit for "22 million new jobs...4 million new businesses...lower interest rates, low rate of inflation, high rate of growth." Lieberman then took a shot at Mr. Cheney: "And I'm pleased to see, Dick, from the newspapers, that you're better off than you were eight years ago, too." Without missing a beat, Cheney fired back, "I can tell you, Joe, that the government had absolutely nothing to do with it." Lieberman, befuddled by the audience laughter, interrupted moderator Bernie Shaw's next question saying, "I can see my wife, and I think she's thinking, 'Gee, I wish he would go out into the private sector'." Again, right on Lieberman's heels, Cheney responded, "Well, I'm going to try to help you do that, Joe." Mr. Cheney, who has been portrayed by Gore's media as a stuff-shirt, established himself as the major asset on this ticket The Federalist proclaimed him to be. Suffice it to say, conservatives should take some comfort in Cheney, even though his name is below Mr. Bush! Lieberman's goofiest line of the night came when Bernie Shaw apologized for asking a question out of order. Lieberman replied, "Good for you, Jim, it means you're human, like we are." Jim? Of course, Android Gore could never get away with the line, "human, like we are." The biggest lie in Cheney v. Lieberman -- and it was a whopper -- was Lieberman's claim, "I have not changed a single position on an issue since Al Gore nominated me as his vice president." Lieberman has reversed his positions on privatizing Social Security and school vouchers. He has reversed his position on moral issues, prompting Rabbi Yehuda Levin to say at the National Press Club yesterday, "We want the Christian community to know how Lieberman is viewed, and that's as a scandal and an embarrassment." Memo to Mr. Lieberman: In the future, if you are going to quote the Declaration of Independence, please quote it correctly. It is no more open for liberal interpretation than our Constitution. On to Bush v. Gore Mr. Bush repeatedly failed to confront Gore's erroneous mantra "spend the surplus on tax cuts." Gore must be held accountable for this insidious adulteration of the English language. Wanting to leave a little more of American's hard-earned dollars in their own pockets does not constitute "spending" government largess. It's our money! When Gore commented that he went to Vietnam because if he didn't, "Someone else from my hometown of Carthage, Tennessee, would have to go in my place," Mr. Bush should have countered this folklore spin to say, "First, your hometown is Washington, D.C. And second, only a few months into your one-year 'tour' in Vietnam as a 'visiting journalist,' you got special dispensation to come home and go to divinity school -- where you flunked out. I suppose someone else from your hometown of Carthage, Tennessee, had to finish your tour in your place." When Jim Lehrer asked, "Governor Bush, are there issues of character that distinguish you from Vice President Gore?" Bush softly made the point that Gore has repeatedly deceived the nation on a wide range of issues. "I think that people need to be held responsible for the actions they take in life. I think that that's part of the need for a cultural change. We need to say that each of us needs to be responsible for what we do. And people in the highest office of

[CTRL] REPTILIAN ENCOUNTERS IN UTAH - TIME TO KICK ASS by B. Alan Walton
REPTILIAN ENCOUNTERS IN UTAH. TIME TO KICK ASSby B. Alan. WaltonUtah is literally surrounded by underground bases where 'reptilianhumanoids' reportedly have been seen. I will assume that the reader isalready familiar with the reptilian mystery as described in such websites aswww.davidicke.com www.wiolawa.com and www.Reptoids.comOn such sites one will learn about these bases, in this case thosesurrounding the state of Utah on all sides...Burley Idaho to the north, Mt.Teton to the northeast, Denver International Airport to the east, Dulce NewMexico to the southeast, Superstition Mts. near Phoenix Arizona to the Southand Las Vegas, Mercury, Groom Lake Nevada to the west.There has been a great deal written on the reptilians, especially on DavidIcke's reptilian Archives site and these cases are certainly not limited tothe areas mentioned above. This report will deal mainly with the reptilianactivity in Utah, or rather the many stories that I have heard. Whetherthese accounts are based on fact or fancy I will let the readers decide.I was born and lived the early years of my life in the southeast corner ofSalt Lake Valley. Although I have no "conscious" memory, I do have whatmight be called "intuitive" memories in the form of dreams and so on ofbeing involved in some sort of government-alien interaction scenario, sincea child. The gist of the scenario involves underground colonies of humanswho, after entering into territorial treaties with subterran species ofreptilian humanoids, over a period of time became increasingly assimilatedinto a psychic collective which controls the reptilians.These humans are known as the Melchizedeks who apparently have ties with theinner cores of Masonry, Mormonism, the Naga-Mayas of Mt. Shasta, theAgharti-Ashtar collective and native tribes living in a large system ofcaverns. There are even rumors that the lost Israelite tribe of Mannasahresides in this underground realm.My first introduction to the "reptilian" mystery came through mycorrespondence with Tal Le Vesque. Sometime later I began hearing rumors ofrelated activity in Utah. I remember the day when I received a phone callfrom my friend Kaye Studstrup of S.E.Salt Lake City, telling me about whatshe learned from a friend of hers, Irvarene Davis, of West Valley City,Utah. I called and later visited, Mrs Davis in her home and learned thewhole story. I was not surprised to learn that her entire neighborhood hadbeen plagued for years by abduction type phenomena. One of her neighborsspoke of being abducted to an underground city where she met strange humansand brown skinned reptilians. But this was not the story which led me toher.The story involved a young man named peter, the son-in-law of Mrs Davis, whohad just been hired on as a security guard at the Crossroads Mall indowntown Salt lake City. Peter had learned that construction workers diggingout the lower levels of the Mall - where Crossroads Cinemas now lie - hadbroken into some underground tunnels, but never returned, he was told. Whenasking a fellow security guard about his desire to explore the tunnels, hewas told that this would not be wise since he might encounter the "lizardmen" (exact words) and not be allowed to return. This other security guardwas deadly serious.Another Salt Laker, john Todd, recalls the day many years ago when he walkedinto the Crossroads Plaza, only to find a construction area in the lowestlevel where there was a pit-tunnel cordoned off by construction tape. Evercurious, Mr Todd walked apst the barrier and looked down the hole. Suddenlya construction worker appeared and angrily told him to leave the area. MrTodd responded in a friendly fashion and got the man to admit that thetunnel had been penetrated five days earlier, that one of the workers wentdown in it to explore, but in the five days since had not returned... JohnTodd had also worked at the Dugway military base to the west, where he hadmet a man at the tire shop who swore that he had seen 'people' transforminto reptilian humanoids, in the town of Dugway.Kaye Studstrup had introduced me to Dan, a young man whose life was goingwell until he was abducted in City Creek canyon east of Salt Lake City, by a"UFO". he did not remember what took place following his initial encounter -he woke up on the ground in the dead of night - but he did have nightmaresof tall, green-skinned (reptilian?) aliens with dark eyes staring down athim, as if he were on some sort of operating table. Dan became very suicidalafterwards.Kaye Studstrup claims to be part of a hybrid program.

-Caveat Lector- From: Coalition to Save Hemp [EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Please oppose DEA's plan to ban hemp. October 5, 2000 Dear Friend: Have you heard that the DEA is proposing to ban certain hemp products in the United States? If you've already heard enough, please visit http://www.SaveHemp.org right away to make your voice heard. The DEA and the drug czar claim that hemp products are "confounding our federal drug control testing program." They are claiming that the use of hemp products can cause people to test positive for marijuana, even if they have not used marijuana. This, the DEA argues, undermines the government's ability to hunt down marijuana users. Under the proposed ban, hemp products intended for human consumption, such as hemp seed cakes and nutritional supplements, would be illegal. The DEA is also threatening to ban personal-care hemp products -- such as hemp-based shampoos, soaps, lotions, and lip balm -- because they claim that hemp products that touch the skin might convey THC into the human system! Only hemp paper, clothing, rope, and animal feed (including birdseed) would still be legal, because the DEA expects that people will not eat these products. Please visit http://www.SaveHemp.org to send a letter opposing the DEA's new prohibition. (You can send one of six pre-written letters with just the click of a button.) If you act now, you can help prevent the proposed ban from taking effect. It will be difficult to reverse the regulation should it actually take effect, so it is important to act quickly. Thank you for your help on this important matter! Sincerely, Coalition to Save Hemp http://www.SaveHemp.org P.S.

-Caveat Lector- You make a very good point below, Mike. It is certainly one of the elements against allowing homosexuals to force themselves into the BSA. I'd like to add to this: On many of the "boylove" web sites, any of them "religiously" and philosphically oriented, these "minor-attracted adults" -- a term they themselves coined as an alternative to the negative sounding "pedophile" -- their big thing in life is "mentoring" a boy or boys. These homosexual male men, attracted to minors, seek ways to enter areas of life where they can be in a position of "mentoring" a boy or boys. They themselves say that this "mentoring" may or may not include sex: all depends on the boy, the situation, etc. These "boylovers", btw, now calling themselves "minor-attracted" adults, are organized, at least on the Internet, and advocate the lowering of the age of consent, and some advocate on various philosophic, "moral", and even "religious" grounds the doing away with age of consent laws entirely. They also do "out-reach" to pedophiles who in prisons, writing letters to them, offering "hope", etc., and no doubt NAMBLA represents many pedophiles in jail. These "minor-attracted adults", in effect, are, by doing so, "raising the consciousness of" emprisoned pedophiliac adults, as these groups ride the coat-tails of the homosexual agenda, mimicking the very militant homosexual tactics. The problem is that where Society envisions dirty men in trench coats, this is not actually the true picture of men who are "minor-attracted adults". Change the word "pedophile", a word with negative connotations, to another word -- and you've now changed the connotations to something more positive and finding that new word suddenly, now workable. We see this happening every day in many other areas of life. These issue of homosexuality and pedophilia are different terms to the mainstream Society, but in effect the end result is a blurring of the lines. These issues go far deeper than dirty old men flashing and acting out. Homosexuals, taken as a while, envision a type of Utopian Society, much like one might see on the older version of Star Trek with Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock, that is, a type of Society where access to children at very young ages, even at birth, is simply accepted, i.e. because pedophilia "simply IS" where no one is forced to hide their propensities, but is accepted. Traditional society needs to start looking at, not the stereotype, but at the actual forces at work which surround not only the militant homosexual agenda, but their coat-tail riders, and then Society will see quite easily what is behind the whole issue of the relentless attack by homosexual groups against the BSA. It isn't just "tolerance", "diversity", or any other cutesy-pie label newly minted and coined. Needless to say, the entire media helps perpetuate the roping off of a certain "class' of people, labelling them "pedophiles", a blind and smoke and mirrors to the fact that when it comes to the attack against the BSA, there is more at work than homosexuals wanting their "rights". I'd also like to add that allowing homosexual men to force their way into the BSA, would be pretty much a homosexual's DREAM, even regardless of whether that man would or could be termed a "pedophile". It would seem to me that a homosexual man "mentoring" in the BSA would allow for the subtle indoctrination on the unconscious level into "the world of men" as the homosexuals envision it. A teacher, after all, doesn't just teach facts, but also interacts with students informally. A homosexual person just is not in the position to pass on traditional family values, as their "world" consists of homoeroticism on a most fundamental level, a condition which seems to cover all aspects of life in their world view. The word "homosexual", after all, describing a lifestyle, gets its life with first of all the idea of sex One may argue that homosexual couples, both men and women, are now finding ways to adopt children legally, often via the test tube. Be that as it may, and no doubt we are headed towards one degenerate Society, but nevertheless homosexuals do not represent traditional family values, not in the manner in which "traditional" means. Justine I really believe it was you June who missed Yardbirds point. June lets face it NOBODY is arguing that pedophilia is either: a) predetermined by an individuals sexual orientation. or b) precluded by an individuals sexual orientation. You know it, I know it, the whole list knows it. Whether or not the culprit was caught by a male or female is in this case irrelevent and moot. If the BSA was to allow homosexual men to be scout leaders, whom would the pedophile segment of that group prey on? Boys obviously. And if the BSA also had some HETEROsexual leaders who were ALSO pedophiles whom would they prey on? NOBODY because there's no young girls in the boy scouts.

For many Chileans, this could mean only one thing: The mythical "Chupacabras," or "goat-sucker," Latin America's version of Count Dracula, was back in the news. In the northern desert town of Calama, where the "attacks" first began, locals immediately began to hang crosses in front of their homes. Jose Ismael Pino, a farm worker near the central city of Concepcion, is among the many Chileans who claim to have had an up-close experience with the Chupacabras. "It just stood there looking at me," Pino told local newspaper Cronica. "It stood about four feet tall, like a big monkey, with long clawed arms, enormous fangs protruding from its mouth, as well as a pair of wings." The Chupacabras legend began in Puerto Rico in 1995, when eight sheep were found dead with the same telltale signs: bloodless corpses with bite marks. Over the next year, reports of attacks multiplied, with the Chupacabras popping up in Texas, Costa Rica, Mexico, Guatemala and Brazil. A cultlike - and no doubt profitable - industry has formed around the Chupacabras in Latin America, spawning T-shirts, bumper-stickers, squeaky toys, candies, sandwiches and songs. The myth lost steam after 1996, only to resurface a few months ago in western Nicaragua, northern Mexico and northern Chile. Since the first attacks in Calama last spring, well over 800 animals of all kinds have been killed in similar incidents in just about every region of Chile. The monster has been variously described as a large rodent or a mutant kangaroo, while others claim it is a winged, ape-like being that walks in a zig-zag pattern. Lilliana Romero, a school teacher in Concepcion, Chile, told the local newspaper that she woke up in the middle of the night and saw a Chupacabras. "I crouched and looked through the window," she told El Sur. "I could see the back of what appeared to be an immense man, standing more than two meters [6 feet, 8 inches] tall. The shoulder blades were split, as if he had wings." The next day, Romero said, she found a completely bloodless dog dead in the alleyway behind her house. Another wave of hysteria swept Chile in May when rumors spread that three Chupacabras - a male, a female and a cub - were captured by Chilean soldiers near a mine north of Calama. Some locals even claimed that a team of NASA scientists arrived in a black helicopter and took them away. The popular rumor in Calama these days is that the Chupacabras escaped from a secret NASA experiment in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile, where they say the space agency is trying to replicate the conditions of a voyage to the planet Mars. As for Chilean authorities, they have steadfastly maintained that most of the attacks were caused by packs of feral dogs. The Chupacabras legend is beginning to take root in Chile for good, said Bernardo Valenzuela, an anthropology professor at the University of Chile. "These animals, whatever they are, just suck the blood of their victims, without eating their meat - no wonder the popular imagination has generated this legend," Valenzuela told FOXNews.com. Fear of the night and fascination with werewolves may have also played a key role in the popularity of the Chupacabras myth, anthropologists say. The Chupacabras' existence has never been scientifically proven; skeletal cadavers and decomposing remains have been proudly produced by farmers from time to time but have ended up identified as dead dogs or bats. But in the meantime, the Latin Goat-Sucker continues to inspire the public's imagination, and its legend grows in the Chilean countryside - as well as in thousands of Web pages. *** EU ECHELON TO PROBE U.S. CHIEFS Published by WorldNews.com - September 12 2000 BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) - Senior members of a European Union committee said Tuesday they want U.S. intelligence chiefs to testify on whether an alleged American-led eavesdropping network monitors the businesses of its European allies. European Parliament Vice President Gerhard Schmid, a German who is a senior member on the committee investigating the alleged Echelon spy network, said he would like to see the U.S. National Security Agency head, Air Force Lt. Gen. Michael V. Hayden, come before the committee. Schmid said he wants the American intelligence chiefs to discuss how the NSA gathers intelligence. "If

The date? Two thousand years before any evidence of the Neolithic age in Asia Minor or Palestine: 10,000 BC." July 5, 2000 A cradle in the wrong place We have all been taught that the cradle of civilization was in the Middle East, but a prehistoric village in the south of France suggests that Europe has a rival claim Michael Bradley National Post Henry Lincoln Stone huts, called capitelles, in the Narbonnais region. Their age is unknown, but their floor plans are very like the foundations at a perplexing Neolithic site in the same region. In November, 1985, Julia Roussot-Larroque, director of Historical Research for France's Centre National de Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), supervised what proved to be an unnerving discovery. At the excavation of a prehistoric site in Provence, some 50 kilometres northeast of Marseilles, there were uncovered the remains of small stone houses arranged as if on a street. At the doorways of the houses were massive slabs. Most remarkably, bones of domesticated sheep were found along with kernels of grain. French scientists concluded that the inhabitants had been a previously unknown people who had begun the tradition of "megalithic" structures. The kernels of grain and animal remains were carbon-14-dated to 7000-6000 BC. Roussot-Larroque called this culture "Cardial" after a type of seashell that was the most common item in the kitchen garbage heaps of this Neolithic people. Then, in early 1986, a CNRS team found that the Cardials had also reached and settled Corsica in significant numbers in about 7000 BC. They had brought their sheep with them, so they must have had boats capable of carrying people and livestock 200 kilometres across the sea between Corsica and the Côte d'Azur. The Cardials had constructed megaliths on Corsica, too. Megalithic houses and supposed "temples" and "tombs" had long been known on Sardinia, Sicily, Malta, Crete and Cyprus. These ruins were mysteries. Who built them? When? Roussot-Larroque's discoveries suggested that the Cardials of mainland France had started the megalithic tradition and carried it to the Mediterranean islands as well as to the Atlantic coasts of Brittany and Britain. In northwest Europe, after a few thousand years, it had culminated in Stonehenge and Carnac. But who were the Cardials? Cardial C-14 datings from 7000 BC were unnerving because they were so close to the very earliest Neolithic radiocarbon dates from the Near East. Grains were cultivated at Jericho in about 6000-8000 BC. Domesticated cattle are known from the site of Çatal Hüyük in southern Turkey in about 7000-8000 BC. The early Cardial radiocarbon dates caused a stir in scientific journals. The new data were incorporated in the 1987 edition of the Larousse Histoire de la France. Cardial dating didn't cause a dramatic sensation only because they were still slightly later -- just barely -- than the established and accepted Near Eastern origin for the "Neolithic revolution." Then, the Syrian site at Jerf el-Ahmar was discovered and excavated (1996-1998). Conventional-minded archeologists breathed a sigh of relief. Jerf el-Ahmar's C-14 dates were a comfortable 9000 BC, superseding Jericho and Çatal Hüyük, and putting a little more time between the Cardials and the Near Eastern Neolithic. But there was a problem. Jerf el-Ahmar also revealed engraved pictograms containing "messages dating back to several millennia before the invention of writing," in the words of a January, 1999, CNRS information release. What was going on? Archeologists were uneasy, but with the Syrian C-14 dates, the idea could still be maintained that Cardials had come from the Near East and then had spread to the Mediterranean islands, to the French Mediterranean coast and then on to the Atlantic coast of northwest Europe. A CNRS map (from January, 1999) of Cardial migration illustrates this supposed route and direction. The crucial innovations of agriculture and animal domestication, the foundation of civilization, could still be attributed to the Near East. But not any longer. In August, 1999, in a discovery so recent it has not yet been published in scientific journals, let alone the popular press, a CNRS team excavated a prehistoric site at Viols-le-Fort some 60 airline kilometres north of Narbonne. They found the familiar Cardial stone houses, megalithic-style doorways and domesticated grains and sheep bones. The date? Two thousand years before any evidence of the Neolithic age in Asia Minor or Palestine:

-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ Click Here: A HREF="http://www.aci.net/kalliste/"The Home Page of J. Orlin Grabbe/A - Digital Society The Reinvention of Radiohead Someone was reading Raymond Carver short stories. With OK Computer, Radiohead recorded one of the landmark albums of the '90s. Three years later they return with Kid A - a chilling, minimal, electronic masterpiece that dumps the past and reinvents the band. In this exclusive interview, MIKE GEE chats with guitarist Ed O'Brien about what is arguably one of the most dramatic shifts in the history of popular music. Kid A. Who the hell is Kid A? And what's this ambient, electronic, neo-avant barely rock, oozing through speakers? Talk about dazed and confused. "God, what have Radiohead done?" pondered one headline lugubriously. "Why ... why this?" asked another critic. A perfectly romantic answer would be something like the unbearable darkness of being. Actually, it's got a lot more to do with challenge and change. Radiohead, you see, have just gone and proved that they don't give a damn about commercial music, about record company wants, about singles, radio and music television. They've just gone and spiked the lot. Grammy, NME, Ivor Novello, Radio One, Q and Rolling Stone award winners for perhaps the most celebrated album - and/or its associated singles and videos - of the '90s, OK Computer (it's only real contender is Nirvana's Nevermind), Radiohead could have sat back and lapped up the kudos while watching the cash roll in. Then, just as easily, they could have popped into the studio eased out a few more titanic guitar rock anthems and ballads in the mould of Paranoid Android, Karma Police, No Surprise, and sold another eight or 10 million albums. Lead singer and songwriter, Thom Yorke, could also have ensured his ascension to saintliness by angelically singing self-analytical songs about the foibles of being human and dealing with those nasty emotions which he defined so perfectly on Creep - the ultimate '90s anthem of self-loathing - a millstone he's never escaped since. It was never going to happen. Radiohead have no interest in preserving the status quo: OK Computer was such a smash precisely because it dared to be different. In the then world of 1997 with its boy and girl bands, Brit pop and second phase US bubblegum punk, Radiohead produced towering sonic landscapes through which Yorke - and that voice - weaved a strange magic. "I saw God," declared an Australian critic after seeing them in concert. And it was easy to understand what he was talking about. OK Computer became a religious experience, a hymn to the burden of being human. More than three years after OK Computer's release, Kid A presents a panorama few could have predicted. It's a brooding, heavily emotional, slightly-chilled, coruscating vision way beyond the threshold of the dream - and what is acceptable and what is not. Inspired loosely by the pulsating Krautrock of '70s legends Neu, Can and Faust, embracing the dictates of ambience defined by Brian Eno on his Music For Airports and touching on drum'n'bass, post-rock and even the Americana of Wilco, Sparklehorse and G randaddy, Kid A is, for the most part, a darkly moving electronic masterpiece. A symphony for a new millennium caught in a struggle for dominance between man and machine. Guitarist Ed O'Brien is in London: he hardly sounds like a man caught on the edge of an emotional abyss. In fact, he's about as down-to-earth as they come, nattering comfortably about the recent struggle between the record companies and Napster over the cans and can'ts of downloadable music, and a seven-day visit to Sydney in April to see his sister, during which he swam daily in the Glebe pool and followed that up with a cappuccino on the quick sip strip. He recalls with amusement hearing rock station Triple M serving up its greatest hits formula as he sat back and enjoyed his coffee and swears that on three days he heard Creep, sandwiched between staples from the US and Australian big rock pit. It reminded him of what his band had escaped. "And I'm glad we did," he says. O'Brien chuckles at the suggestion that Kid A will freak out a decent proportion of Radiohead's fans. He isn't concerned or apologetic. "It's funny," he says. "Obviously, it was a very conscious decision not to go down the same route we'd travelled before. In retrospect I don't think OK Computer sounded that much different to The Bends but this one does - it's a lot more textural and unlike anything we've done before. "What I think it comes down to is the methodology. Often the sound of your record is a by-product of the way you set it up and make it. What happened with The Bends and OK Computer was that we'd rehearse the new songs for a month and then, because we were touring a lot, we'd often play four or five new songs a night during the set or at soundcheck. By the time we got to the studio they were pretty well

The Magazine of Global Politics /A - Foreign Policy 1779 Massachusetts Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20036-2103 Phone: 202-939-2230 Fax: 202-483-4430 The Spy Who Loved Globalization James Bond was wrestling with forces of integration and fragmentation decades before political scientists invented the ideas. By David C. Earnest and James N. Rosenau A group outside the world's established state system exploits tensions among sovereign countries to advance a pet cause. Heads of state attempt to coordinate their instruments of government to curtail that group's power. Meanwhile, the tensions between sovereignty-bound governments and this sovereignty-free rival threaten dire consequences for all humankind. To contemporary globalization theorists, it is a familiar story. But it is also the central plotline of practically every James Bond moviemany of which were written by novelist Ian Fleming and adapted by screenwriters decades before scholars ever pondered such ideas. Art doesn't just imitate life, as the cliché goes, it anticipates it: The first signs of the coming "century of war" were manifest in the popular novels of the late 19th century, such as Sir George Chesney's The Battle of Dorking (1871). The earliest indicators of the contemporary Space Age appeared in science fiction and comic strips published decades before the 1950s. Given our modern celluloid sensibilities, it makes sense that television and motion pictures should presage how the 21st century will unfold. But Bond, James Bond? Espionage is the most Cold War of genres. Even 007's boss "M" dismisses him as a "relic of the Cold War" in Goldeneye (1995), echoing the sentiments of many movie critics. But as early as the 1950s, before Sean Connery first brought Fleming's hero to the screen, James Bond's world was shaken, and stirred, by phenomena we've come to identify with globalization. Indeed, compared with the real crises of the 1960s and 1970s, Bond's world seems strikingly modern. Each story consists of several fundamental, predictable elements: The antagonist is a sovereignty-free actoreither a person or an organizationthat threatens the welfare and security of a society or perhaps the entire world. This sovereignty-free actor thrives within the folds of the sovereign state systemareas of activity that states are unable or unwilling to regulate, such as international organized crime, arms trade, terrorism, or international commerce. To combat a challenge to their authority and protect and provide for the common welfare, state officials must put aside their disagreements and cooperate. Consider 007's nemeses. The most memorable of Fleming's villains is an organization called SPECTRE, the "Special Executive for Counter-Intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge, and Extortion." Campy, to be sure, but not unfamiliar in its methods. This sovereignty-free actor seeks to squeeze money from states and to humiliate governments, either to create fissures in international alliances or to spark popular unrest and political instability. In Thunderball (1965) and Never Say Never Again (1983), SPECTRE hijacks nuclear weapons to pry a hefty ransom from world powers. The tensions of the space race almost explode into armed conflict when SPECTRE steals U.S. and Soviet spacecrafts in You Only Live Twice (1967). While these goals may be crude in literary terms, they prophesy the methods of contemporary sovereignty-free actors such as millionaire and alleged terrorist Osama bin Laden or the various Colombian drug cartels. These groups thrive by exploiting the inability of states to cooperate and maintain control of transnational technological, financial, commercial, and migratory flows. Other Bond villains seem even more modern: A financier tries to hoard gold to sow instability in foreign exchange markets and ruin industrial economies in Goldfinger (1964), much like financier George Sorosif you believe his critics. Multinational corporations seek to monopolize markets and use international conflict to create demand for their products in A View to a Kill (1985), a vision of the world that demonstrators at the World Trade Organization (WTO) meeting in Seattle would have found familiar. Millenarian mass murder appears as a theme in On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), and Moonraker (1979), anticipating the recent mass murders and suicides in Uganda and outside San Diego (not to mention Jonestown two decades earlier), and highlighting the persistent inability of states to protect their citizens from violence. The ironic message of these films is clear and prescient: States are better at protecting their citizens from the violence of other states than from the violence and exploitation of sovereignty-free actors, whether they be cults or corporations.

Time to start looking for a new one A HUNDRED years is a suspiciously round number. But if researchers at CERN, the European particle-physics laboratory near Geneva, turn out to be correct, it is exactly the period needed to build a model of how the universe works. Construction began in 1900 with Max Plancks publication of the first incarnation of quantum theory. Since then, and particularly with the development of high-energy particle accelerators in the 1930s and 1940s, the structure of matter has been probed in greater and greater detail while theorists have sought to impose order on what has been discovered. The result of their labours, now known as the standard model, will be completebar the odd dotting of is and crossing of tswith the discovery of a particle called the Higgs boson. This would round off the 18-strong menagerie of fundamental, irreducible particles required by the model. (The 17th, known as the tau neutrino, was announced two months ago by researchers at CERNs American rival, Fermilab.) And over the past few weeks indications have emerged from CERN that the Higgs is indeed a reality. Discovering the Higgs would be an impressive piece of work. Historians of science may, however, pause at this point. For it sounds suspiciously like the consensus that prevailed at the end of the 19th century, just before the publication of Plancks paper. Then, too, physicists had a description of the universe that had few apparent flaws. Some of the more hubristic thought the job was done and that the science they had created was, in effect, a theory of everything. But it wasnt. Classical physics, as it is now called, turned out to be a mere engineers approximation to realitygood enough for everyday working, but actually explaining nothing fundamental. Today, physicists are more cautious. Few believe that the standard model is really a theory of everything, but none knows for certain what the next stepthe equivalent of Plancks paperwill actually be. That, however, makes the future of physics much more exciting. For the first time in several decades (assuming that the worlds taxpayers will continue to fork out for the necessary equipment) fundamental physics will become a voyage into the unknown. Brave new world At first sight, the standard model looks relatively simple. The 18 particles are divided into fermions (the actual constituents of matter) and bosons (which carry the forces that allow fermions to interact). The fermions themselves are divided into two groups, the quarks and the leptons. Each of these comes in three generations, or flavours, of successively heavier species. The first-generation consists of the ingredients of everyday matter. Its quarks, the up and the down, are the bits inside protons and neutrons, the constituents of atomic nuclei. The first generation of leptons consists of the electron (the third constituent of atoms) and its corresponding neutrinoa particle so small that people are still arguing about whether it has any mass at all. Particles of the second and third generations are mostly short-lived and so rarely found outside particle-physics laboratories, though they were common at the beginning of the universe. The second generations quarks are known as charm and strange; its leptons are the electron-like muon and the muon neutrino. The quarks of the third generation are called top and bottom; its leptons are the tau and the tau neutrino. The most familiar of the bosons is the photonthe particle of light. Photons carry the electromagnetic force, the weakest in the standard model, and have no mass. The second force in the model, known as the weak nuclear force, controls radioactive decay. It is stronger than the electromagnetic force, but operates at shorter range, and is carried by three bosons, the W+, the W- and the Z. Weak bosons, unlike photons, are massive. The models third force, known as the strong nuclear force, is the most powerful of the three. It holds quarks, and thus atomic nuclei, together. This force is carried by particles known as gluons. To confuse matters further, the strong-nuclear charge comes in three varieties, known to physicists as red, green and blue. Because of their different colours each quark comes in three varieties, and there are eight distinguishable gluons. Gluons, like photons, are massless. All very neat. But then there isor at least there ought to bethe Higgs. The Higgs boson was actually the standard models first kludge. The models original mathematics had the inconvenient consequence that they failed to predict the existence of mass. Introducing
[CTRL] Harry Potter Casts a Spell on China
-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.insidechina.com/news.php3?id=207033 Click Here: A HREF="http://www.insidechina.com/news.php3?id=207033"Inside China Today Daily News - Harry Potter Ca /A - Home General NewsHarry Potter Casts a Spell on China BEIJING, Oct 6, 2000 -- (Reuters) Harry Potter made a splashy official debut in China on Friday, despite anxious debate within the People's Literature Publishing House over whether the schoolboy wizard was politically correct. An initial print run of 600,000 copies of the first three children's books by British author J.K. Rowling was rushed to market to beat pirates already making a killing. The biggest first edition run of a work of fiction in the 51-year history of Communist China attracted long queues outside Wangfujing Bookstore in Beijing's main shopping district that stretched halfway around the block. Wang Ruiqin, children's editor for People's Literature Publishing House - publisher of the Collected Poems of Mao Zedong - said she fought criticism that Harry Potter with his vampires, zombies and trolls promoted superstition. After the Communists took power in 1949 they outlawed "feudal superstition" along with a host of other evils, including prostitution and drugs. "Some who have not read the book feel it is just like witchcraft, but after you read it you will not feel that way," she said. The editorial board was persuaded by the argument that Harry Potter was a fine role model for children. "Harry Potter's courage, his willingness to help people - this is universal," she said. CULTURAL CLASH? Customers paid a hefty CNY 68 (USD 8.20) for the books printed on special green-tinted paper to foil counterfeiters. The Sorcerer's Stone, Chamber of Secrets and the Prisoner of Azkaban are being sold as a trilogy. People's Literature Publishing House is negotiating for rights to the fourth in the series, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and could bring it to market next year depending on the response to the first three, Wang said. "For Chinese readers, it has been a long wait," said publishing house president Nie Zhenning. First in line on Friday was Zhang Huitou, who waited more than three hours to get his hands on the set for his 11-year-old daughter after reading a newspaper account of the exploits of the boy wizard "Hali Bote", as he is known in Chinese. "This really makes Chinese kids excited," said Zhang. The publisher moved the launch in major cities up by a week to cut down on counterfeiting, but already three or four pirated versions are circulating on the streets. It said readers would be swayed by the more accurate translation and high quality of genuine copies. The publisher hopes the three books, which have sold more than 35 million copies worldwide, will provide commercial magic in China. But some literary critics are not so sure. "The cultural difference is too great," said Chen Jie, a writer for China Reading Weekly. "I'm not too optimistic about the China market." Gao Wei, a 27-year-old nursery school teacher, said he was buying the books for his classes, and himself. "Nine years old or 100 years old, we're all interested in Harry Potter," he said.

Re: [CTRL] UN Troops Training at Fort Polk, LA
-Caveat Lector- So what? This is hardly new information. The U.S. has been training foreign military personnel at stateside bases for more than fifty years. This particular operation, IIRC, was widely trumpeted by the Pentagon as an example of the military cooperation between NATO and the new nations emerging out of the collapsed Soviet Union. In any event, the pictures are so amateurish that they provide zero information...no unit insignia are visible, for example. We have no proof, in fact, that these "soldiers" are anything but Americans dressed up in camouflage fatigues with national I.D. patches from assorted countries, all of which you can buy at your local Army-Navy store or on the Internet. If you're trying to provide "proof" that the U.N. is planning a military takeover of the United States, well, this ain't it. - Original Message - From: "Bill Richer" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, October 07, 2000 7:15 AM Subject: [CTRL] UN Troops Training at Fort Polk, LA snip A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

Re: [CTRL] British study shows fluoridated water safe, other experts disagree
-Caveat Lector- To add to the current fluoride safety debate, perhaps the article, attached below, taken from the National Pure Water Association's website (www.npwa.co.uk) may be of interest. Whether fluoride is or can be proven conclusively to be safe or not is only *one* aspect of the debate. The other side is whether mass medication is ethical. Put quite simply, the answer has to be an unequivocal "NO". Water is supplied to fulfil the requirements of water, plain and simple. Medication is the domain of physicians, and the consent to taking such chemicals lies with the individual. Everyone consumes tap water, whether as a drink or in cooking. If water was fluoridated, my liberty to chose medication has been stolen from me. Whether fluoride is safe or not is, and has to be irrelevant - for the basic question is "Can we allow the public to be mass-medicated against their free will?". I cannot see anything other than a negative answer. Thank you. Regards, Nadia Hamer England From the National Pure Water Association: Medication without consent: The legal implications. Is it ethical . . .? The British Dental Association, British Medical Association, Area Health Authorities and others have continued for years to lobby parliament to force a change in the law to compel water authorities to fluoridate drinking water throughout Britain if the Health Authorities request it. But from the evidence presented here it is clear that experts disagree as to the benefits and dangers associated with fluoridation. The first obvious question to be answered, therefore, is: should the whole population be put at risk for the possible benefit of a minority? We are already overfluoridated When drinking water was first fluoridated in the 1940s, that was the only source of fluoride in the food supply. Today all that has changed: it is difficult to find a toothpaste which does not contain fluoride; fluoride may also be found in canned drinks, fruit juices, tea, meat, vegetables -- in fact all foods which have been grown or manufactured using fluoridated water. So is it really necessary to add more to tap water? And as it seems we are not sure what is a safe limit for fluoride, is it even safe to add more to tap water? The evidence suggests strongly that it is not. Fluoridation of tap water forces us all to take the risk of this dubious and, for most, unnecessary medication whether we want to or not as domestic water filters do not filter fluoride out and bottled water is both suspect and expensive. Even if there were conclusive evidence that fluoridation is of benefit to one section of the population, it cannot be right to prescribe it for all if it has been shown to cause harm to others. And whether it is dangerous or not, and whether it is good for children's teeth or not are really irrelevant. There is no ethical reason why everyone, like it or not, should be subjected to any form of mass medication. . . . is it legal? It may not even be legal : in English law, medical treatment without consent is only permitted by court order for convicted felons, for the mentally ill, or for minors with the consent of their guardians. Surely it cannot be ethical for any health professional to prescribe medication for persons he has not met, whose past medical histories are not known, whose current medical needs are not known, where the dose that each individual will take in is not known, when it is not known whether the medication will react with other medications being taken, or even whether those people need the medication at all. Fluoridation is an affront to human dignity which is explicitly recognised as a major objective in the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights. The foundation of the legal rights and liberties of the individual is the principle of that individual's responsibility for his conduct and his own interests, chief among which is his health. Fluoridation encroaches on a person's sovereignty over his body and the selfsame principle that seeks to justify fluoridation would also justify adding tranquillisers, vitamins, antibiotics, contraceptives, laxatives or anything else to the water supply: it could justify putting nicotine in the water supply to help smokers give up, for example. This is the principle of totalitarianism. Fluoridation is not only against the spirit of the laws of England, it is contrary to the letter of the law. Even if fluoridation eventually proves to be safe, which seems highly unlikely, the psychological damage that will be done to those who fear the side effects of fluoride and cannot avoid it could cause much more ill health than toothache ever will. Adding insult to injury of those who do not want fluoride will be the knowledge that they will have to pay for this intrusion on their rights while being harmed by it. Bad science The protection of teeth by fluoridation is merely attempting to mitigate the symptoms of disease without first trying to cure the disease. This is
[CTRL] Fwd: Pepsi Pinochet
"The October 1970 plot against Chile's President-elect Salvador Allende, using CIA 'sub-machine guns and ammo', was the direct result of a plea for action a month earlier by Donald Kendall, chairman of PepsiCo, in two telephone calls to the company's former lawyer, President Richard Nixon" Guardian November 8, 1998 A Marxist threat to cola sales? Pepsi demands a US coup. Goodbye Allende. Hello Pinochet By Gregory Palast 'It is the firm and continuing policy that Allende be overthrown by a coup... Please review all your present and possibly new activities to include propaganda, black operations, surfacing of intelligence or disinformation, personal contacts, or anything else your imagination can conjure...' 'Eyes only, restricted handling, secret' message. To US station chief, Santiago. From CIA headquarters. 16 October 1970. You would be wrong to assume this plan for mayhem was another manifestation of the Cold War between the 'free world' and communism. Much more was at stake: Pepsi-Cola's market share and other matters closer to the heart of corporate America. In exclusive interviews with The Observer last week, the former US Ambassador to Chile, Edward Korry, told the story in - and behind - these and other top secret CIA, State Department and White House cables recently released by the National Security Archives. Korry filled in gaps in the story by describing cables still classified, and disclosing information censored in papers now available under the US Freedom of Information Act. Korry, who served Presidents Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon, told how US companies, from cola to copper, using the CIA as an international debt collection agency and investment security force. Indeed, the October 1970 plot against Chile's President-elect Salvador Allende, using CIA 'sub-machine guns and ammo', was the direct result of a plea for action a month earlier by Donald Kendall, chairman of PepsiCo, in two telephone calls to the company's former lawyer, President Richard Nixon. Kendall arranged for the owner of the company's Chilean bottling operation to meet National Security Adviser Henry Kissinger on September 15. Hours later, Nixon called in his CIA chief, Richard Helms, and, according to Helms's handwritten notes, ordered the CIA to prevent Allende's inauguration. But this is only half the story, according to Korry. He claims the US conspiracy against Allende's election did not begin with Nixon, but originated - and read no further if you cherish the myth of Camelot - with John Kennedy. In 1963, Allende was heading towards victory in Chile's presidential election. Kennedy decided his political creation, Eduardo Frei, the late father of Chile's current President, Eduardo Frei Ruiz-Tagle, could win the election by buying it. Kennedy left it to his brother, Bobby, the Attorney-General, to put the plan into action. The Kennedys cajoled US multinationals into pouring $2 billion into Chile, a nation of only 8 million people. This was not benign investment, but what Korry calls 'a mutually corrupting' web of business deals, many questionable, for which the US government would arrange guarantees and insurance. In return, the American-based firms kicked back millions of dollars to pay for well over half of Frei's successful election campaign. By the end of this process, Americans had gobbled up more than 85 per cent of Chile's hard-currency earning industries. The US government, the guarantor of these investments, committed extraordinary monetary, intelligence and political resources to protect them. Several business-friendly US government front organisations and operatives were sent into Chile -including the American Institute for Free Labor Development, infamous for sabotaging militant trade unions. Then, in 1970, US investments, both financial and political, faced unexpected jeopardy. A split between Chile's centre and right-wing parties permitted an alliance of communists, socialists and radicals - uniting behind the socialist Allende - to finish the presidential election 1 per cent ahead of his nearest rival. That October, Korry, a hardened anti-communist, hatched an off-the-wall scheme to block Allende's inauguration and return Frei to power. To promote his own bloodless intrigues, the ambassador claims he 'back-channeled' a message to Washington warning against military actions that might lead to 'another Bay of Pigs' fiasco. (Korry retains a copy of this still-classified cable.) But Korry's prescient message only angered Kissinger, who had already authorised the Pepsi-instigated coup, scheduled for the following week. Kissinger ordered Korry to fly in secret to Washington that weekend for a dressing-down. Still not knowing about the CIA plan, Korry told Kissinger in a White House corridor that 'only a madman' would plot with Chile's ultra-right generals. As if on cue, Kissinger opened the door to the Oval Office to introduce Nixon. Nixon - who described his ambassador as

[CTRL] Fwd: 'NEW' PAULA JONES TO 'BARE', TELL ALL!
'New' Paula to Bare, Tell All in Mag By MARTIN MBUGUA Daily News Staff Writer Plastic surgery shrank her Pinocchio profile, and braces put a gleam in her smile. Now Paula Corbin Jones is showing the rest of her souped-up self. The former Arkansas state employee whose sexual harassment suit triggered events that led to President Clinton's impeachment is baring all in the December edition of Penthouse. The mag, which is scheduled to hit the streets Oct. 24, will feature a nine-page spread of a nude and seminude Jones with a story titled, "Paula Jones Uncovered! She shows all, she tells all: How the Far Right used and abused her to destroy Clinton." "This is the new and improved Paula Jones. ... She has a lovely body," said a spokeswoman for the publisher, General Media Communications Inc. "It's a Paula Jones who feels so good about herself that she wants to share the truth of what [the right-wingers] did to her with the rest of the world," she said of the story by Joe Conason. But news of the nudity did not sit well with Susan Carpenter-McMillan, Jones' friend and former adviser, who was at an uncharacteristic, albeit momentary, loss for words. "I am so completely, vehemently opposed to posing in the nude," Carpenter-McMillan said. "If it is true, I would be very disappointed," she added. "It's the worst thing she could have done. I don't think anyone will approve of it." The spread reportedly was shot in California during the Democratic National Convention and captured Jones naked inside and next to a swimming pool, as well as in several indoor locations. At least two pictures in the spread will be full exposure of a "happy and comfortable" Jones. "She told me she wouldn't do it a couple of months ago," Carpenter-McMillan said. "I was aware of it, but they weren't supposed to be nude." Penthouse ran seminude pictures of Jones in 1998, taken from Polaroids shot by her boyfriend at the time. Her ex-husband, Stephen Jones, was not available for comment, but a woman who answered the phone at his home in Collierville, Tenn., identified herself as Mrs. Jones and said, "That side of our lives is closed." White House officials and attorney Robert Bennett, who represented President Clinton in Jones' suit, declined to comment. "There is nothing to say," Jones' mother, Delmer Corbin, said by telephone from her home in Cabot, Ark.

Characteristically, the Central Intelligence Agency opposed release of the documentation because U.S. intervention in the Thai electoral process was not among the handful of officially acknowledged U.S. covert actions. But after the matter was appealed to a so-called High-Level Panel, consisting of representatives of the National Security Council, Department of State, and CIA, it was agreed that the covert aid to Thailand could be acknowledged and partially documented, clearing the way for publication of the new Foreign Relations volume.

Pedophiles who molests children of the same sex are no more represenative of the homosexual community, than pedophiles who molest children of the opposite sex are representative of the heterosexual community. In other words, banning men who openly admit their preference for sexual relations with other adult males will NOT keep Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts safe from pedophiles. So IOW that would leave the pedophile percentage of the homosexual population Again, there IS no 'pedophile percentage' of either the 'homosexual population', or the heterosexual population. Pedophiles are a separate 'population'... Basically you've said time and time again June that you'd like to see the ONLY group with any reasonable feasibility of molesting boy scouts allowed to participate. Can you explain that? The only group with 'any reasonable feasibility of molesting boy scouts' are pedophiles, and I've never said that any youth group should allow pedophiles to be youth group leaders. A man who admits that he is sexually attracted to other adult males is NOT a pedophile, but homosexual. Homosexuals are not pedophiles, just as heterosexuals are not pedophiles. Pedophiles are a separate category. I think we all agree here June that pedophiles come in both flavors... No, we don't. Pedophiles are a 'flavor' unto their own...they molest children, period. Homosexuals are not attracted to children, but to adults of their same sex.

Re: [CTRL] Satanic Symbolism Surrounding the Death of Princess Diana
-Caveat Lector- From: "Ole Gerstrøm" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Satanic Symbolism Surrounding the Death of Princess Diana And what, pray tell, is 'satanic' about any of the supposed symbols? The city of Paris was founded in the sixth century AD by the Sicambrian Franks, an aryan race of middle-eastern extraction. They were keen followers of occult pracices, If true, what exactly in their practice do you construe as 'satanic'? Or are you implying you equate ANYTHING labeled 'occult' as the equivalent of 'satanic'? If so, you may be surprised to know that the term 'occult' is used every day in hospitals and medical facilities around the world. So are you going to tell us that every hospital, and that every doctor and nurse, is 'satanic'? and ritual and ceremonial magic was integral to their daily life. And so? That doesn't mean they were satanists. The central religious deity the Franks worshipped was the Moon Goddess known to the Romans as Diana, (aka Artemis, Isis, and others). And what is 'satanic' regarding any of the above? The Franks built an underground chamber for the worship of Diana outside the Isle-de-la-Cite. Sacrifices to the Moon Goddess were made here, If true, then they were Dianic, not Satanic... Allegedly a "symbol of Liberty", and a memorial to French servicemen who died in the Second World War, the monument consists of a torch over a black five-pointed star. Those familiar with the occult may be aware that this is not a symbol much associated with liberty. Perhaps not in the strictest sense...but it is definitely NOT 'satanic'...unless you are going to tell us the fifty stars on the U.S. flag are also 'satanic'... The 5-pointed pentagram IS utilized by non-satanic pagans of various flavors when working a 'magic circle'...it is a symbol of power and of protection from negative and evil influences... Satanists -- who are nothing more than Roman Catholics turning their religion inside out and upside down -- usurped the symbol, utilizing a reversed pentagram as a sign to welcome negative and evil forces... But just as the cross has been in use long before Christianity usurped it, just as the swastika was in long use before the German National Socialists adopted a reversed swastika as their national symbol, so too with the symbol of a 5-pointed star long antiquates the modern use by modern satanists... The Moon Goddess is frequently said to be as female energy form And the female energy form equates to 'satanism'how? The latter, Hecate, the Queen of the Underworld, is very heavily associated with occult practices and ritual sacrifice. True. But it has naught to do with satanism. Hecate predates satanism by centuries. "Hecate's Day" is August 13th, Your source for this is? but Satanic rituals, (black as opposed to white magic), to Hecate are better carried out on the 31st, reversal of numerals popular in Satanism. And again, your source for this is...? The underlying contention being that there exists a Satanic group located at the extreme apex of our society, practising ritual magic. We're still waiting for any proof that any of this, even if true, has aught to do with satanism. All the practices you mention, except human sacrafice, are common practices of any number of pagan and wiccan groups...so are you claiming that these groups are the same as satanists?

Since the Seattle protests ten months ago there have been at least 50 separate episodes of civil unrest in 13 poor countries, all directed at the IMF. Half of these protests have ended in violent clashes with the police or military. In one country the protests led to a military coupe. The report uncovers a previously undocumented pattern of protest against the policies of the International Monetary Fund. It links these policies to a catalogue of riots and civil unrest in poor countries around the world. The World Development Movement publishes its report, called `States of Unrest: Resistance to IMF Policies in Poor Countries', on the eve of massive protests against the IMF at its annual meeting, in Prague. Jessica Woodroffe, co-author of the report said: "Attempts by the World Bank and IMF to dismiss protesters as `rich students' are naïve and insulting. Millions of people around the world have been brave enough to protest against IMF policies. From Argentina to Zambia, farmers, priests, teachers and trade unionists have called for an end to IMF imposed economic reforms. "Millions of people around the world have seen the IMF attempting to undermine their national governments. It is seen as forcing countries into a one-size -fits-all blue print of economic development. "It is significant that all these protests have happened since the IMF announced its new commitment to poverty reduction at its Annual Meetings last September. The depth of opposition reveals just how far the IMF has to go if its new poverty reduction rhetoric is to be anything more that a re-branding exercise." States of Unrest details examples where IMF policies are threatening fragile and newly established democracies. It quotes Adams Oshiomhole, a Nigerian trade union leader: "We are on a mission to rescue the president [who has] been hijacked by the IMF and the World Bank. This country belongs to Nigerians."

States of Unrest catalogues 50 separate protests in 13 countries in the last 10 months. Conservative estimates indicate that more than half of these protests ended in the deployment of riot police or the army. A total of 10 people have lost their lives, and over 300 injured in protests against the IMF and its policies. In Ecuador, IMF protests lead to the storming of the legislature. States of Unrest makes extensive use of IMF and World Bank policy documents, newspaper reports and testimony from NGOs and campaigners in poor countries.
[CTRL] FR: Urgent Alert: Congress on verge of approving warrantless secret searches
-Caveat Lector- http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a39dede1511bd.htm Urgent Alert: Congress on verge of approving warrantless secret searches Government Breaking News Announcement Keywords: WARRANTLESS SEARCHES, 4TH AMENDMENT Source: KeepAndBearArms.Com Published: October 7, 2000 Author: Dave Kopel Posted on 10/07/2000 01:25:57 PDT by "12-Gauge" Urgent Alert: Congress of verge of approving warrantless secret searches By Dave Kopel The Independence Institute http://i2i.org [Advance draft of article scheduled for publication in National Review Online, http://www.nationalreview.com] Please feel free to forward No person's liberty is safe in the last week of Congress-traditionally a time when civil liberties invasions such as wire-tapping, gun prohibitions, and the like are snuck through in the final frantic hours, with no opportunity for public opposition. This Congress is no exception. As soon as Tuesday, the House may vote on a bill, which has already passed the Senate, to drastically expand government power to conduct secret searches without judicial approval. The bill in question comes from Senators Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont) and Orrin Hatch (R-Utah). It is S. 2516, "The Fugitive Apprehension Act." The bill allows the government to obtain any kind of document it wants, without first getting a search warrant or a subpoena from a court. These documents include any written or electronic document possessed by an individual-or possessed by a third party (such as bank records, credit card records, telephone records, school records, or an Internet Service Provider?s customer records). In other words, the bill guts the Fourth Amendment requirement that private documents should be searched only after a court issues a warrant based upon probable cause. Even worse, section 3(g) of the bill allows these document seizures to be conducted secretly, so that the individual might never be told that his bank records, Internet records, or other documents have been searched by the government. The bill currently applies to apprehension of "fugitives," which include people who have been charged (not convicted) of a crime, at both the federal or state level. In other words, if your wife?s second cousin never showed up in court for his drunk driving trial, the government could look at your bank records, telephone records, Internet records, and every other document about you-without a court order, and without ever telling you. There is no law enforcement need for this provision. Under the All Writs Act, a United States Attorney can go to court, and present reasons why he needs access to private records. If the court agrees (it almost always does), the court issues a subpoena to obtain the records. This system is working well, and, notably, the United States Attorneys are not asking to change the law. Even so, there is a very strong chance that S. 2516 will become law next week, unless Congress hears of widespread opposition. The American Civil Liberties Union, which is leading the fight against the bill on Capitol Hill, is urging to citizens to contact their Representatives and their Senators over the weekend and on Tuesday morning, in every way possible: at town hall meetings, by calling DC and local Congressional offices, and by sending e-mail or faxes. Because House Speaker Dennis Hastert has great discretion over whether to bring S. 2516 to the House floor, King urges people all over the U.S. to call his office. The main Congressman opposing S. 2516 is Representative Bob Barr (R-Georgia). The very conservative Barr is a former United States Attorney, and one of the most prominent "law and order" Republicans in Congress-as shown by his leadership in the effort to impeach President Clinton. While the ACLU is generally considered liberal, and Barr conservative, both agree that protecting the Fourth Amendment transcends party or ideology. Should S. 2516 become law, it would set a precedent for warrantless, secret searches on other subjects-including firearms laws. This is one reason why Barr, one of the staunchest Second Amendment defenders in Congress, is opposing the bill. There is also a possibility that S. 2516 may be snuck through as an amendment to HR 3048, "The Presidential Protection Act of 2000." Of course S. 2516 has nothing to do with Presidential Protection. Instead, the bill is about constitutional destruction." = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion

-Caveat Lector- - Original Message - From: Tony Craddock Sent: Saturday, October 07, 2000 10:05 AM Subject: New Breakthrough Overunity Device Announced A scientific team headed by Dr. Tom Bearden announced yesterday that they have developed and tested a new Overunity device that produces a Coefficient of Performance of 5. This means that it puts out five times as much power as is fed into it, making up the difference by extracting free energy from the vacuum. Essentially it can be considered as a battery that never runs down. Later models of this breakthrough device are expected to produce COP's in the region of 30. The device is known as a Motionless Electromagnetic Generator, has no moving parts, and is based on magnetic principles that were only able to be utilized when Honeywell produced a new nanocrystalline material which became available last year.

[CTRL] ORP Calls McCain's TV Ad Hypocrisies
-Caveat Lector- Oregon Republican Party Condemns McCain's Hypocrisies FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: SOLOMON YUE FRIDAY, October 6, 2000503-370-7499 SALEM, OREGON (October 6) - Immediately following the viewing of McCain's TV Spot in support of Measure 5, A Gun Registration Act, the Oregon Republican Party (ORP) Chairman Perry Atkinson issued the following statement: Senator McCain injecting himself in Oregon politics is filled with hypocrisies. Hypocrisy I Senator McCain' TV Spot in support of Measure 5 only highlighted his hypocrisy as the National Champion of the Campaign Finance Reform to ban soft money. According to the AP, Senator McCain took and spent $1 million in soft money from Billionaire marketing mogul Andrew J. McKelvey for the 30-second TV spot in Oregon and Colorado. Hypocrisy II Senator McCain is playing divisive politics with a local ballot measure in Oregon, where he is not even a resident. McCain did not even know that Kip Kinkel of Eugene did not buy his gun from a gun show. Hypocrisy III Senator McCain is trying to tell Oregonians what to do and how to vote on this issue, which he did not even study. As of yesterday, Senator McCain's Chief of Staff, Mark Salter requested for more information from the Oregon Republican Party on the issue. When he was asked if Senator McCain ever read the Measure before he cut this spot Salter said no he had not. Senator McCain was not aware that 1) the ORP passed a resolution unanimously in last February against Measure 5 and 2) Measure 5 has major flaws: 5 years record retention on buyers and sellers, allow the State check buyers' medical records, and no safeguard or penalty for any abuse of those personal records. Hypocrisy IV Senator McCain knowingly supports a flawed ballot measure which intrudes Oregonians' privacy and right to bear arms. When Mark Salter was asked that if the ORP can document to Senator McCain there are major flaws in Measure 5, would the Senator reconsider his support for Measure 5 or consider pulling his TV spot. The answer was NO. The above hypocrisies raised the issue of Senator McCain's sincerity and creditability when Senator McCain claims in his TV spot that Measure 5 is simply closing a loop hole at a gun show. The Oregon Republican Party will continue to work for the defeat of Measure 5, A Gun Registration Act -30- ### He's gone, so we'll put [Democrats] in the cellar again. --Mr. Clinton on Republican plans after he leaves office. **We checked, and Mr. Clinton has already put Demos in the sewer under the cellar.

[CTRL] Hetro Scout Shenanigans!
-Caveat Lector- What you don't seem to grasp is the FACT that there are homosexuals, there are heterosexuals, and then there are pedophiles. Three SEPARATE groups. The above statement is an absolute LIE. It is based on the sterotype people have of the "dirty old man", promulgated by the media. I have given enough UrLs to "boylove" sites, sites owned by homosexual MEN who are "minor-attracted adults", as they themselves call themselves. It is also very convenient to the militant homosexual community to promulgate the myth of 3 separate groups. But this is LIE. Pedophiles are a separate group from either homosexuals or heterosexuals. A homosexual is attracted to adults of their same sex. Heterosexuals are attracted to adults of the opposite sex. Pedophiles are attracted to children. Pedophiles who molests children of the same sex are no more represenative of the homosexual community, than pedophiles who molest children of the opposite sex are representative of the heterosexual community. BIG BIG LIES above. There are male peedos who prey on boys, male peedos who prey on girls, and hetero peedos who prey on both sexes...to be sure. HOWEVER, ANY male peedo who preys on boys is a HOMOSEXUAL, plain and simple. AND, if you care to then look deeper into what "homosexual" consists of in its ENTIRETY, again, I have posted several "boylove" URLS to get anyone started in their own investigation. Should you come across any forums on these "boylove" sites, the ones which seek to create a bridge to "non-boylovers" -- that would be you and me -- you will meet there many activists on BOTH SIDES of the coin and you will certainly get a fuller picture of the militant homosexual agenda. And, suddenly you will realize there is NO SEPARATE GROUP called "pedophile".

Believe me, Bubba, I have no BIG ATTRACTION to this issue. I investigated, and I found something. That's all. Anyone who likes the homosexual agenda and wishes their own kids to be taught homosexuality -- have at it. I notice when the TRUTH gets too close to what people would like to comfortable believe, i.e. sterotypical myths, for instance, they don't like it and try to insinuate things against the person telling the truth of what they have found as a way of getting around their uncomfortable feelings. That's about it, bubba. So sorry if you can't relate to it all, but I presented many UrLs to these very homosexual "boylove" sites for any interested in investigating on their own.

[CTRL] Fwd: Thurn und Taxis:
http://www.eurohistory.com/thurn.html The history of an enterprising family By Art Beéche Very few princely families have been able to play such an important role in Europe without ever appearing as actors in the main stage of history. The dynasty of the Princes of Thurn und Taxis is such a family. The family's fortunes prospered along those of the imperial court at Vienna. For more than 300 years, the Thurn und Taxis held the monopoly over imperial communications and post between Vienna and the far flung Habsburg possessions that formed the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation. The Thurn und Taxis had humble beginnings in the XVth century. Emperor Frederick III celebrated half a century on the throne in 1490, then decided to strengthen the communications system within his empire. The Habsburgs had recently acquired Tyrol, and in the coming years would also incorporate Burgundy and the Low Countries to their expanding empire. Frederick III knew that without effective communication it would be impossible to govern the expanding Habsburg lands. With this task in mind, the emperor offered a communications monopoly to the Thurn und Taxis family, which had already proved its efficiency in providing support to the empire's communications. It was then that Franz von Thurn und Taxis obtained the mail monopoly over all the Habsburg lands. For the next three centuries the name Thurn und Taxis was synonymous with transportation and communications. It was also synonymous with wealth as the Thurn und Taxis prospered greatly from their services to the Habsburgs. The Thurn und Taxis originated from the region of Bergamo in Italy. Their letters of nobility were granted by Emperor Maximilian I in 1512 in recognition for services given to the Habsburg family. Emperor Charles V confirmed his grandfather's granting in 1534. According to the Almanac de Gotha, the Thurn und Taxis family were made Barons of the Empire in 1608. Almost two decades later, Emperor Ferdinand II elevated the family to Counts of the Empire in 1624. They were made princes by the Spanish Court in 1681 in recognition for their services. Finally, the Thurn und Taxis received their princely title in the Holy Roman Empire in the 1695 from Emperor Leopold I of Habsburg. No other enterprise could guarantee transportation and communications with the reliability provided by the Thurn und Taxis. By the end of the XVIIIth century it took five days for a letter to travel from Brussels to Innsbruck, while it took forty hours to travel from Brussels to Paris. It was a performance record that only the Thurn und Taxis system could match. The family used a horse relay system that allowed for uninterrupted travel from one European capital to another. It was Napoleon Bonaparte who first attacked the Thurn und Taxis monopoly. And as the XIXth century progressed, the family gradually lost it completely. The loss of the mail monopoly did little to affect the power of the Thurn und Taxis for by then, the family had diversified into a myriad other enterprises from foodstuffs to banking to railroads. Their wealth was vast and very few other European families could match it. The Thurn und Taxis not only profited in their many enterprises. Their matrimonial alliances were also a source of great pride and achievement. From their origin in Bergamo to becoming the couriers of the imperial court in Vienna, the family also expanded its relations through the palaces of the German nobility. One of the first prominent matrimonial alliances of the family was that of Eugene-Alexander, I Prince of Thurn and Taxis, to Princess Anna of Fürstenberg. His successor, Anselm-Franz, married into another renowned princely family when he wed Princess Maria of Lobkowicz at the beginning of the XVIIIth century. The Third Prince of Thurn and Taxis, Alexander-Ferdinand, continued these successful matrimonial alliances by marrying Sophia Chistianne of Brandenburg. His heir, the Fourth Prince married Duchess Augusta of Wurttemberg. Karl-Alexander, the Fifth Prince of Thurn und Taxis was married to Duchess Theresa of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, a relative of Queen Charlotte, wife of George III of Great Britain. The family reached the pinnacle in 1858 when Maximilian, Hereditary Prince of Thurn und Taxis, married Duchess Helene in Bavaria, sister of Empress Elisabeth of Austria. Helene in fact, was initially chosen as Emperor Franz Joseph's bride, yet her vivacious and lovely younger sister attracted the young emperor's eye and conquered his heart. Nonetheless, Maximilian of Thurn und Taxis could count the Austrian emperor as a brother-in-law. Prince Johannes and Princess Gloria von Thurn und Taxis (1982) The marriage of Maximilian and Helene was a success as the couple found satisfaction with each other. Unfortunately for Helene, her husband died unexpectedly in 1867 leaving her with four young children: Louisa, Elisabeth, Maximilian and Albert. The children were raised primarily at the family's

I should clarify this statement. What I meant to say is that there is NO SEPARATE GROUP of just plain "dirty old men" called "pedophiles". This is the sterotypical MYTH promulgated by the media, a myth by the way, which amounts to nothing more than a very convenient smoke screen when it comes to MALE HOMOSEXUALS in the MALE HOMOSEXUAL COMMUNITIES...those who just happen to be "minor-attracted adults", i.e. PEDOPHILES. Justine I don't think that this is about pedophiles at all Justine. Pedophilia in this instance is a way to attempt to justify contempt for homosexuals, to use this issue to discriminate. You argue that it is the right thing to do in this case to exclude an entire segment of society from participation in this group because there is a small percentage of the homosexual community that displays deviant sexual behavior directed toward boys. Is it your opinion that homosexuals and lesbians should be excluded from all work with children because there are pedophiles in our society and a percentage of them masquerade as gay and lesbian men and women, but are actually pedophiles just as many pedophiles masquerade as heterosexuals? Certainly among masquerading pedophiles there are those who prefer male children and those who prefer female children and although much less common there are those who molest both. There are also women who molest children. You cannot protect children from these predators by keeping gay men from participating in scouting any more than you can keep a percentage of these boy scouts from following there genetic disposition to become gay men by doing so...,. __ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Jim Marrs-What a difference a day (or two) makes
-Caveat Lector- What a difference a day (or two) makes By Jim Marrs Date: 10/05/2000 URL: http://www.alienzoo.com/features/m/200010050001.cfm Wouldnât any criminal be delighted if he could have complete, secret, and unsupervised control over all the evidence in his case for two full days? Wouldnât the verdict in his criminal trial be a swift "not guilty" if he had the opportunity to "doctor" the evidence? This is precisely the situation which occurred in the murder of President John F. Kennedy beginning the very night of the assassination. Although the proof of the disappearance and reappearance of the JFK evidence has been lying right in front of researchers since the fateful weekend, no one seems to have perceived the significance of the matter. However, at least one person with access to official federal government documents apparently recognized this significance and took steps to conceal it from the American public. This issue began the evening of November 22, 1963, when Dallas Police Chief Jesse Curry began receiving calls from Washington. As he related to Warren Commission member Allen Dulles, "We kept getting calls from the FBI. They wanted this [assassination] evidence up in Washington, in the [FBI] laboratory, and there was some discussionâ¦" Curry made it clear that "we felt this was a murder that had been committed in the county, city and county [sic] of Dallas, and that we had prior, I mean we had jurisdiction over this. The FBI actually had no jurisdiction over it, the Secret Service actually had no jurisdiction over it⦠"[Homicide Capt. Will] Fritz told me, he says, `Well, I need the evidence here, I need to get some people to try to identify the gun, to try to identify this pistol and these things, and if it is in Washington, how can I do it?â" But someone in Washington was most persistent. "We got several calls insisting we send this (evidence), and nobody would tell me exactly who it was that was insisting, âjust say I got a call from Washington, and they wanted this evidence up there,â insinuated it was someone in high authority that was requesting this, and we finally agreed as a matter of trying to cooperate with them, actually." Consistent rumors in Dallas have long been that President Lyndon B. Johnsonâs assistant Cliff Carter made the calls. On the basis of this pressure from Washington and against their better judgment, the Dallas police reluctantly released all of the assassination evidence to the FBI. "â¦we finally, the night, about midnight of Friday night, we agreed to let the FBI have all [emphasis added] the evidence and they said they would bring it to their laboratory and they would have an agent stand by and when they were finished with it to return it to us," stated Curry. However, much of the evidence was never returned to Dallas. Curry told the Warren Commission on April 22, 1964, "Subsequently they photographed these things in Washington and sent us copies, some 400, I think 400 copies of different items. So far as I know, we have never received any of that evidence back. It is still in Washington, I guess. Perhaps the Commission has it." "Yes; the Commission is still working with it," responded Commission General Counsel J. Lee Rankin. What the Dallas authorities did receive was "very poor reproduction of some of these items on microfilm", according to Fritz. There is no doubt that the FBI received the assassination evidence late on the night of the crime. A document signed by J. Edgar Hoover himself stating that "No latent [finger]prints of value were developed on Oswaldâs revolver, the cartridge cases, the unfired cartridge, the clip in the rifle or the inner parts of the rifle," was dated November 23, 1963. Yet the journeys of this vital evidence apparently was unofficial and was never made clear to the public. The first official word on the transfer of assassination evidence came on Tuesday, Nov. 26, when both Dallas newspapers carried stories announcing that the evidence was to be turned over to federal authorities. So now the FBI was officially on the case and officially in charge of the evidence. But what could have happened during the two days while the evidence was unofficially in their hands. Fabrication, substitution, elimination, alteration - anything could have been done to the evidence, with no effective "chain" of responsibility. Unlike 1963, today the FBI has come under suspicion of poor management of evidence at best and downright falsification of evidence at worst. Under Hooverâs iron control, it was have been an easy matter for certain ranking Bureau officials to do with the evidence whatever they pleased. And evidence exists for just such speculation. For example, FBI document Dallas 89-43 dated Nov. 29, 1963, and first publicly released in 1968, stated brown wrapping paper in the Texas School Book Depository "was examined by the FBI Laboratory and found to have the same observable characteristics as the
[CTRL] Lubavitcher reveals why Christians are evil
-Caveat Lector- I have a question here. In reading the dialog below, I notice that (is it "tenorlove"?) whenever something negative is said about the jews, tenorlove is very quick to point out the similarities with the Christians, Islams, Buddhists, etc, i.e. the "tit-for-tat" thing. BUT otherwise, tenorlove has posted plain old pro-jewish propaganda about how superior the jews are to all religions, as long as no one is saying anything to the contrary. This jewish idea of the superiority of the jews, and their racist behavior of separating themselves from the unklean Gentiles, is I suppose the foremost reason why the highly intelligent and verbose Michael J. Hoffman looks deeper into the underlying jewish babylonian mind. Given the propensity of the jews to seek their every advantage in all things in the particularly jewish way jews have of doing this, and what they believe about the unklean Gentiles, I think we do need people like Michael J. Hoffman and many, many others, if only in order to counteract the jewish wish to kontrol the world, if given half a chance, and enrich themselves ever more. Justine I stand by my interpretation of the site as a piece of anti-Semitic disinformation, and a badly written one at that.. Schneerson died in 1994, and as of today, still has not risen.. kinda puts the kabosh on any claim of him being the Messiah. Jewish "God" and His "Laws" must be fairly impotent since human civilization is now largely founded upon The New Testament, via Anglo-Protestant USA, Does this include China, Japan, France, Italy, Greece, etc., or are they not civilizations? of Judaism, not Christianity? Judaic law, talmudic and otherwise, is perfect? The Jewish laws are set down in the Torah, also known as the Pentateuch or the Five Books of Moses, to Christians. The Talmud is non-binding rabbinical commentary. lived just over the next hill? Since this Lubavitcher is so fundamentalist, I suppose s/he believes Christian civilization is to be destroyed Being that he is still dead, I don't know that he can believe in much of anything. all Christians "worship Jesus instead of God." Thus, is marxist-leninism really a Judaic politikal means to this babylonian talmudic end? marxist-leninism is atheistic: that means they don't believe ANY God exists. A lot of data are available that seem to point to this possibility: the 3,500-year old religion of Judaism teaches that idol worshippers are to be exterminated from the face of the Earth as quickly as possible by any and all means possible, exactly what marxist-leninism also decrees about Christians. And every other religion, including Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, etc. Since Judaism teaches that all Christians are idol worshippers (along with everyone else in the world who is not Jewish), what do orthodox Jews, such as Sen. LIEberman, actually believe? Why don't you ask him? So, "laws" that applied to the Bronze Age also apply to the Space Age and thermonuclear warfare? Nothing changes? A cigar is always just a cigar? How absurd. What a brood of vipers haughtily making busy with their scales as they measure tit for tat according to their own manner of self-righteousness. Are you saying that the Bible is changeable to fit the times? H, maybe that's where Klinton got his modus vivendi. In Deuteronomy 17, this false prophet is also described as someone who would rebel against the authority of the judges of the Jewish people, and who should be put to death for his rebelliousness (v. 8-13, esp. v. 12). Jesus was crucified, a penalty reserved strictly for rebels against the ROMAN occupiers of Judea. Had Jesus blasphemed against Judaism, they would have stoned him to death, not turned him over to Rome. Can't be Jesus being referred to. sinless? How absurd. If they were so sinless, why then the need for a Messiah? The Messiah, in Judaism, is not considered a Savior in the Christian sense. He was expected to be the one to liberate the Jews from Roman domination. But the false prophet would challenge the authority of the Sanhedrin, thus revealing himself to be an evil man. See above. their forefathers. I am so very sick of religious fundamentalism and its "horned" boogymen and its own manners of self-righteousness. Does this include Christian and Islamic fundamentalism? ALL Old Testament prophesy became obsolete in AD 70 with the destruction of Jerusalem, according to the "curse" of Malachi 4:6. Which reads: (verse 5, for context): Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: (v.6) And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Not a word about OT prophecy, or the destruction of the Temple. This "learned" wo/man is seriously pondering what a middle eastern tribal prophet mused some 2,600-years ago.

[CTRL] Cheney Debate Remark Ignores Halliburton's U.S. Tie
-Caveat Lector- 10/06 18:37 Cheney Debate Remark Ignores Halliburton's U.S. Tie (Update2) By John Rega Washington, Oct. 6 (Bloomberg) -- Dick Cheney, Republican nominee for vice president, balked at giving the government any credit for his success as chairman of Halliburton Co., saying in last night's debate ``the government had absolutely nothing to do with it.'' While the comment came in a light-hearted exchange with his Democratic opponent Joe Lieberman, Cheney's reply left out how closely Dallas-based Halliburton's fortunes are linked to the U.S. government. The world's largest oil services firm is a leading U.S. defense contractor and has benefited from financial guarantees granted by U.S. agencies that promote exports. During Cheney's five years as chairman and chief executive, Halliburton was identified as a potential participant in 10 loans or loan guarantees -- valued at a total of $1.8 billion -- awarded by the U.S. Export-Import Bank to foreign companies, according to Ex-Im Bank records. Earlier this year, Cheney personally contacted a senior Ex-Im Bank official in support of $500 million in loan guarantees to Russia's OAO Tyumen Oil Co., according to bank documents obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request. Cheney contacted Ex-Im Bank Chairman James Harmon about developments in the deliberations, according to internal bank e- mail messages. In a Jan. 27 conversation summarized by Harmon in one e- mail, Cheney expressed hope that other companies would push the proposal past a State Department objection and ``asked if I had any suggestions or thoughts.'' Loan Guarantees The Tyumen loan guarantees were approved in March by the Ex- Im Bank, a U.S. government agency that helps finance sales of U.S. goods abroad. Tyumen planned to use the loan guarantees to buy services from Halliburton, among other companies, to develop and rehabilitate a Siberian oil field. In 1997, Cheney publicly hailed the Ex-Im Bank and its past assistance to Halliburton and other U.S. businesses. ``The emerging global marketplace makes what you do as an institution, here, at the Ex-Im Bank, all the more important in sustaining a healthy, competitive U.S. economy,'' Cheney told the agency in a May 1997 speech to its annual conference, according to a transcript of his remarks at the bank's Web site. ``I look back at Halliburton's track record with Ex-Im Bank,'' he said, according to the transcript. ``I see that we have in recent years been involved in projects in the following (countries) supported, in part, through Ex-Im activities: Algeria, Angola, Colombia, the Philippines, Russia, the Czech Republic, Thailand, China, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Kuwait, India, Kenya, the Congo, Brazil, Argentina, Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Mexico.'' He added, ``Export financing agencies are a key element in making this possible, helping U.S. businesses blend private sector resources with the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.'' Pentagon Contracts Halliburton also has emerged as a leading defense contractor. From 1996 through 1999, the U.S. Defense Department granted Halliburton contracts valued at about $1.8 billion, according to department records. The Pentagon ranked Halliburton the No. 17 recipient of ``prime contract awards'' in fiscal 1999, with $657.5 million. In 1998, the company received $285.8 million in contracts, $290.5 million in 1997 and $573.6 million in 1996, the records showed. The centerpiece of Halliburton's military work is its Brown Root Energy Services unit that supplies logistical support to U.S. military operations in the Balkans. Using its expertise supporting workers in far-flung oil fields, Brown Root feeds U.S. troops and cleans their laundry. The Overseas Private Investment Corp., another U.S. government agency that boosts business investments in emerging markets, also has helped Halliburton. In March 1997, OPIC provided ``political risk insurance,'' with up to $200 million of coverage, to a Halliburton subsidiary for development of natural gas in Bangladesh, according to an OPIC news release. The Halliburton unit owns a 25 percent stake in the project. No Mention Cheney made no reference to these government programs that benefited his former company when he claimed that his personal income over the past eight years owed nothing to the government. His campaign reaffirmed his statement today. Cheney's spokesman Dirk Vande Beek said Cheney's business ``wasn't successful because the government gave them something.'' Cheney has reported earning $20.2 million in adjusted gross income from 1993, when he left his job as U.S. defense secretary, through 1999. In August, after his selection as the Republican vice presidential nominee, Cheney realized an $18.5 million profit by exercising some of the stock options received as compensation from Halliburton, according to regulatory filings. He recorded a $3 million gain on a similar transaction in May.

Secondly these boylove sites you push have nothing to do with homosexuality and everything to do with a sick and illegal perversion. And I'll be damned if I'll bother listening to arm-chair mental masturbators, so enamoured of their precious conspiracy theories. But you have no issues going undercover and chatting/communicating with pedophiles? H Why presume that I am "demonizing" the homosexual community just because I, and, by the way, so many others, SEE behind the comfortable media smoke screen of what YOU, as a Sheeple, are led to believe? By asserting that all homosexuals are pedophiles you spread disinformation...you potentially fuel a Tim McVeigh-type with incorrect information Peace, Bill.
