[CTRL] Fwd: United States Treaties
Here is page re treaties, etc. By what authority did Clinton pull this stuff? His Executive Orders, the minute he went out of office, so did his Executive Orders for they can be changed by a new President. The UN has no authority over this country or its citizens; and as for tests and qualifications to enter this country, it seems perhaps it is about time some of these laws were enforced, and the illegal entries dumped back from whence they came. Always thought treaties were something you signed after a war or seirous dispute - for when we enter into a treaty with the UN we are entering into treaties with our enemies and we are out numbered. While we entertained Elian Castro and the UN Secretary were scheming down in Cuba re sending immigrants from all over the world to the USA for work and the condition of their emmigration to this country, they must be non-whites - as Emma Lazaras said, give us the refuse from your shores and Castro already did that once when he sent his garbage to American from the prisons - killers, rapists, etc., and wonder if some of them are not still b eing held in "concentration" camp structures? Remember one man holding up a cardboard sign with the masonic G years ago who wante out.

[CTRL] HSNS: Condit oversees some of nation's top secrets
-Caveat Lector- Scripps Howard News Service on the Web at: http://www.shns.com NATIONAL --- - Condit oversees some of nation's top secrets By MICHAEL DOYLE McClatchy Newspapers July 13, 2001 WASHINGTON - Private lives matter, in the intelligence world to which Rep. Gary Condit enjoys special access. As a member of the House intelligence committee, Condit oversees some of the nation's most sensitive secrets. Usually, Americans are privy to such information only after an extensive background investigation. But as a congressman selected for the intelligence panel, Condit enjoys privileged access without being subjected to investigators' standard questions about his private life. "The (background investigators') concern is about behavior that might make an individual vulnerable to blackmail or coercion, such as behavior that someone feels compelled to conceal," said Steven Aftergood, director of the Project on Government Secrecy at the Federation of American Scientists. Washington detectives now want to subject Condit to his first lie-detector test, as part of their investigation into the disappearance of Washington intern Chandra Levy. Their questions won't be the same as those asked by security investigators. But the ongoing police probe and new allegations about Condit's private life do shed new light on how a public man's private behavior can intersect with national security interests. In particular, the allegations that Condit had affairs with both Levy and flight attendant Anne Marie Smith - and took special pains to keep those affairs secret - showcases some highly specific guidelines for security clearances. As a member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, Condit, a California Democrat, automatically has access to information for which security clearances with names like Top Secret and Special Compartmentalized Intelligence normally apply. Guideline D of the federal government's "Adjudicative Guidelines for Determining Eligibility for Access to Classified Information specifically notes that "sexual behavior is a security concern if ... it may subject the individual to undue influence or coercion, exploitation or duress, or reflects lack of judgment or discretion." Some intelligence veterans are now stacking up these usual stringent requirements for security clearances against the current allegations concerning Condit's behavior. Condit has not addressed Smith's allegations that they'd had a 10-month affair. He has disputed her claim that he tried to get her to lie about it. Condit's staff formerly denied he had an affair with Levy. Now, his spokespersons neither admit nor deny an affair took place but say the important issue is to focus on finding Levy. Mike Lynch, Condit's chief of staff, referred questions about intelligence committee matters to the intelligence committee staff, which did not return calls seeking comment. Condit did not have to face any background questions when House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt named him to the House intelligence panel in 1999. Like all members of the select panel, Condit essentially was granted a courtesy clearance. For lawmakers, standards like Guideline D don't apply. "Members are automatically cleared for access to almost all the information developed by the various intelligence community agencies," said David Skaggs, a former Democratic congressman from Colorado who served on the House intelligence committee. Condit and his fellow committee members keep a deliberately low profile. They meet in what is essentially the soundproof attic of the Capitol, where guards and locks are common but windows are not. Committee members, including Condit, have typically voted to keep secret matters like the total currently being spent on intelligence gathering. "For all practical purposes, you're in a vault," Skaggs said. Condit had no prior military or intelligence agency experience. He was named to the panel by Gephardt as a sign of respect, as well as a sign of leadership outreach to the conservative Democratic faction Condit helps lead. "He's a valued member of the committee, and I count on him," said Rep. Porter Goss, the Florida Republican who chairs the panel. "He asks what I would call questions on behalf of the American taxpayer ... and he has a great deal of common sense." In addition to authorizing the intelligence community's budget, estimated to be about $30 billion a year, the 20-member panel conducts oversight hearings. Non-lawmakers who want to know such sensitive information need not only a background investigation, but also, sometimes, a lie-detector test and periodic re-investigation. === Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer*<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To C
Re: [CTRL] ABCNews: Condit Passes Polygraph
-Caveat Lector- I am wondering who gave the polygraph test; we know it was a retired FBI Agent - and does he have his own polygraphy agency? Reason - back in 1979 in Columubus, Ohio we had a Mayor who was accused by his baby siitter of molesting her - the charge was sodomy. Needless to say people were shocked and finally this man, who was an attorney, hired a private agency to administer a lie detector test - he would not take the police test - needless to say also, he passed. One problem - the little girl, who was 13 or 14 yers old - the police administered a polygraph test and this little girl passed the police test. One thing I noted however, not many people knew - the agency who gave the test did considerable private work for the law firm in which the Mayor had been or still was a partner. I know a gentleman also who has polygraph agency - retired Detective - and he once told me how these tests can be manipulated, etc. Not that I do not trust a former retired FBI Agent - but this guy is now a private citizen out to make a buck and no doubt he is hired by a lot of government agencies, etc., to conduct these tests. It would seem like the case mentioned above - well one test said the Mayor was innocent he did nothing to the young girl; but the little inexperienced babysitter had also passed the test too. So the Mayor was not indicted but the Grand Jury did something which it had never done before - it let the Defendant, the Mayor, go before the Grand Jury to plead his case and of course the little girl was not afforded this special treatment almost like ex parte hearing? Who is to say who lied? The father was angry and very upset - lthe night in question the Mayor had been drinking. This ruined the political career of this man - for the chances at the time were good, he would be running for Govenor. I would like to know if the police were involved in this test or was this a typical independent lie detector test? Once I sat in a court hearing and watched a man who did hand writing analysis for the Secret Service who was treated like big deal.involved a big contractor saying we had forged signatue on our petitions. So I was sitting there and listening to this man testify - and he dropped his work for the Secret Service twice, and this sounded so impressive as for his qualification - right? I was sitting there half asleep, it was so boring - when suddenly I heard him say something and then more - and without thinking I said "Why - he's lying".everybody froze, my friend elbowed me - but our attorney froze and looked at me and then went after that guy and made a fool out of him, for he then recognied the fact that this man had been hired by the contractor and he had no official connection with the Secret Service and he was slanting his findings to suit his master. We won the case - but all this respect being shown this man was beyond belief... So who was this FBI guy - 30 years experience in polygraph work? So my friend had 30 years in polygraphy work when he told me, that tests can managed. Do I think Condit killed Chandra? No - hopefully she is getting some good old fashined revenge..do I believe Condit had sexual relations with this black woman - no, not if he rode with the Hells Angels. Wonder if Eastern Stars, the busy bodies are at work here? Regardless, Condit has had it.

[CTRL] [Fwd: Stop Bill Clinton and the UN!]
Could things get any worse? Will we EVER be rid of this guy? I cannot IMAGINE that we will EVER see the last effects of this communist that was once our President. We need to act on this or forever live with the results. Charlene [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: "Mountain States Legal Foundation" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, July 13, 2001 10:33 AM Subject: Stop Bill Clinton and the UN! TREACHEROUS CLINTON REPORT CREATES CRISIS OVER SUPREMACY: U.S. CONSTITUTION OR U.N. TREATY? Just when you thought you had heard the last of Bill Clinton. Just when you thought you had heard the last of his treachery and his secret attempts to circumvent the Constitution and the rule of law. Just when you thought you had heard the last of the way he insults the United States and its most revered institutions when he is on foreign soil. Now comes shocking news from the United Nations! New information from Geneva, Switzerland reveals that Bill Clinton filed a stealth report with the United Nations to circumvent the U.S. Supreme Court. As a result, that Clinton Report could cause an unprecedented constitutional crisis when some claim that U.N. Treaty obligations trump U.S. Constitution provisions. In 1995, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled, in Adarand Constructors, Inc. v. Peña, that Congress may not willy-nilly use racial quotas and preferences: "We are one race here; it is American!" Experts say the ruling means an end to racial quotas and the dawn of the dream of a color-blind Constitution. Clinton was furious with that ruling. So furious, he vowed he would "not end" racial quotas and preferences. In fact, he sent one of his top officials to tell the Senate that he would not obey the Supreme Court until it issued a second ruling! Can you imagine the arrogance of that testimony? Millions of Americans, including judges, knew Clinton and his lawyers were stonewalling the Supreme Court. Three judges at a federal appellate court fumed: "[T]he integrity of the judicial process has been compromised [because Clinton's] United States Attorney [has been forced to choose] between allegiance to politics and service to the court.. The uncomfortable sense that the rule of law was sacrificed to politics is all but escapable." But stonewalling the federal judiciary was not the only way Clinton was fighting to save racial quotas and preferences. While his first way was bold and brazen, his second way was sly and sneaky. And it was classic Clinton; after all, Clinton quibbled over the definitions of "is," "alone," and "false." In 1994, the U.S. Senate ratified a treaty called the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD). The Treaty did just what it said; it barred each and every form of racial discrimination. No quotas, no preferences, no type of racial discrimination! Clinton saw an opening. While the American people were watching the close presidential election of 2000, the Clinton Report was submitted to the United Nations. As interpreted by the Clinton Report, the racial quotas and preferences that had been barred by the Treaty not only would be permitted, they would be required! The Clinton Report turned the Treaty on its head! That's not all. In the Clinton Report, Clinton impugned the Supreme Court, openly attacking its recent decisions. It was bad enough that Clinton stonewalled the Court. Now, before foreign nations, he openly assailed it! It gets worse. Because the Constitution places treaties on a par with the Constitution, the Treaty, as interpreted by the Clinton Report, could place the Treaty in direct conflict with the rulings of the Supreme Court. Imagine that, the United Nations would be telling the United States that on matters of racial quotas and preferences, the ultimate authority is not the Constitution, as interpreted by the U.S. Supreme Court, but a Treaty, as interpreted by Clinton and as enforced by the U.N. This could cause a constitutional crisis unlike any in our history, especially since it involves the volatile issue of race! If you don't think the United Nations would foment such a crisis, consider two things. First, the unceremonious way the U.S. was dumped from the U.N. Human Rights Commission after European "allies" assured the U.S. that they would vote to keep the U.S. on the panel. Second, the ungracious way President George W. Bush was received on his June visit to Europe; one writer described it as "a European orgy of anti-Americanism [and] Yankee-bashing . not seen since the days of Ronald Reagan." Can it get any worse? Yes! Remarkably, the very Clinton official who gave the Clinton Report to the U.N. is still our representative on the Treaty. That's not all. She has assembled a powerful team of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that favor racial quotas and preferences to help her lobby for approval of the Clinton Report. Worst yet, she will argue f

Life on earth will be benefited if water vapor and related air circulation are increased in the atmosphere by additional global warmth." Regards to All Nakano __ Do You Yahoo!?

[CTRL] GLOBAL WARMING OR GLOBALONEY?
-Caveat Lector- THE FORGOTTEN CASE FOR GLOBAL COOLING By Phil Brennan Cooling? Global refrigeration instead of Global barbecuing? You bet. And there's a heck of a lot more solid scientific evidence that what the world is facing is the onset of a new ice age than there is behind the very fragile global warming theory. Up until the mid-Seventies there was general agreement among researchers, who studied such arcane signs of the far distant past as sedimentary deposits on the ocean floor, that sooner or later a new ice age was in the cards for this planet. Even the CIA signed on to the idea that the iceman cometh. The idea that an ice age was approaching was based on history, not hysteria -- the motivating force behind global warming studies. And what history taught paleoclimatological scientists engaged in what is known as quaternary research, is the incontrovertible fact that the earth has experienced a long series of ice ages occurring as regular as clockwork -- 100,000 years of glaciation followed by 10-to-12,000 years of interglaciation. There is, they maintained, no reason to believe that what appears to be an immutable law of nature has somehow been miraculously repealed and the cycle of glaciation and interglaciation ended. No reason, except for political expediency. Here's a sample of the kind of thing that was being discussed back in the mid-seventies by that part of the scientific community that dealt with the geological history of climate changes: "The present interglacial interval -- which has now lasted for about 10,000 years -- represents a climatic regime that is relatively rare during the past million years, most of which has been occupied by colder, glacial regimes. Only during about 8 percent of the past 700,000 years has the earth experienced climates as warm or warmer than the present. "The penultimate interglacial age began about 125,000 years ago, and lasted for approximately 10,000 years. Similar interglacial ages -- each lasting 10,000 plus or minus 2000 years and each followed by a glacial maximum -- have occurred on the average every 100,000 years during at least the past half-million years. "During this period, fluctuations of the northern hemisphere ice sheets caused sea level variations of the order of 100 meters." (Understanding Climate Change, published by the National Academy of Sciences in 1975 -- page 181). On page 189 the question was asked: "When will the present interglacial [period] end? "Few paleoclimatoligists would dispute that the prominent warm periods (or interglacials) that have followed each of the terminations of the major glaciations have had durations of 10,000 plus or minus 2000 years. In each case, a period of considerably colder climate has followed immediately after the interglacial interval. Since about 10,000 years have passed since the onset of the present period of prominent warmth, the question naturally arises as to whether we are indeed on the brink of a period of colder climate." "The question remains unsolved." A study prepared for the 95th Congress in 1978 agreed with the National Academy of Sciences position as explained in the above-quoted study. The document Weather Modification: Programs, Problems, Policy and Potential warned: "In geological prospective, the case for cooling is strong ... If this interglacial age lasts no longer than a dozen earlier ones in the past million years, as recorded in deep sea sediments, we may reasonably suppose the world is about due to slide into the next ice age." The only question remaining is exactly when and how glaciation will begin. Remember, what we are dealing with here is historic evidence -- not a widely disputed theory as is the case with global warming.

Well, that would mean she (or her corps) had to be concealed somehow as she/it left the building, or that she/it is still in the building, right? Both scenarios seem to me to have an infinitesimal chance of being the case??

[CTRL] NM: D.C. Cops Obtained Sample of Condit Mystery Stain
-Caveat Lector- With Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff For the story behind the story... Friday, July 13, 2001 7:30 p.m. EDT D.C. Cops Obtained Sample of Condit Mystery Stain Over the objections of Rep. Gary Condit's attorney Abbe Lowell, Washington, D.C., police took a sample from an unidentified red mystery stain that they discovered on a pair of Condit's pants found during their search of his apartment Wednesday morning, NewsMax.com has learned. "They didn't take the pants, but they took a scraping from the pants," a source familiar with the Chandra Levy investigation told NewsMax.com. The Washington Times reported earlier this week that Lowell "repeatedly challenged the search team and refused to let them take a pair of pants that had a red stain," but made no mention of the scraping. Rather than demand that Condit's attorney hand over the evidence intact, investigators decided to compromise and take the scraping instead. "They were just trying to get in and get out and avoid Abbe Lowell's griping," the source said. The stain, decribed as a "splotch," was blood-like in appearance. "Of all the things it could be, blood is definitely one of them," the source told NewsMax.com. "If they thought it was ketchup I don't think they would have bothered taking the sample. They took it because they want to check to see if it's blood and whose DNA it matches." Lowell's spokeswoman Marina Ein did not return a call Friday about the red mystery stain. On Wednesday, a D.C. police spokesman told NewsMax.com that he would not discuss the evidence found in Condit's apartment. A sample of the red mystery stain, along with other possible blood specks spotted by the police search team in Condit's apartment, is now being analyzed by the FBI Lab in Quantico, Va. === Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer*<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends === http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] CNN: Condit passed polygraph, lawyers to announce
-Caveat Lector- Condit passed polygraph, lawyers to announce July 13, 2001 Posted: 4:36 PM EDT (2036 GMT) WASHINGTON (CNN) -- California Rep. Gary Condit's lawyers planned to announce Friday that the congressman has taken and passed a polygraph test in the disappearance of former intern Chandra Levy, CNN has learned. No details of how the test was administered or what questions were asked were immediately available. Condit's lawyer, Abbe Lowell, planned an afternoon news conference to discuss the results. The California Democrat has been a focus of attention due to reports he had an affair with the former federal Bureau of Prisons intern. News of the lie-detector test came as as police renewed a search of abandoned buildings in northwest Washington on Friday in an intensified effort to find Levy, who was last seen April 30. Washington Police Chief Charles Ramsey said his department would distribute computer-generated pictures of Levy designed to show how she would look if she had altered her appearance by changing her hair style or color. Investigators planned to question some members of Condit's staff for a second time, a law enforcement source said, but the time and location for the interviews was unclear. Ramsey offered a broadened view of operational police theories to explain Levy's disappearance: foul play, runaway, lost and suffering amnesia, suicide -- a possibility he had seemed to all but rule out earlier. The young woman's mother, Susan Levy, said she strongly doubted her daughter would commit suicide or become despondent over the possible breakup of her relationship with Condit. "I don't think she would harm herself. I have given her the reality of how valued life is," Susan Levy said in a taping for the "America's Most Wanted" television show scheduled to air Saturday night. "I think she could have been saddened, but she would go on because she knew she had a future." Susan Levy, whose Modesto, California, home is under 24-hour surveillance by local sheriff's deputies, has said it was important for Democratic lawmaker Condit to be forthcoming about what he knows of her daughter during the days prior to April 30, when she was last reported seen. "I'm not out to hurt anybody's political causes or anything like that. I am just -- my husband and I -- are just, we're parents who want our daughter home," she said. Another California Democrat, Sen. Barbara Boxer, echoed the sentiment. "Congressman Condit must put aside any considerations for himself and tell all he knows about this case to law enforcement authorities without further delay," she said. "He needs to be truthful and forthcoming with the authorities to help them find Chandra and the authorities must get to the bottom of this disappearance." On Capitol Hill, Rep. Bob Barr, R-Georgia, became the first member of Congress to call on Condit to resign, charging his House colleague has "obstructed an ongoing police investigation." "I believe he should resign rather than bring further discredit on the House of Representatives," Barr said. The conservative Barr was joined by the liberal magazine The New Republic, which declared in an editorial that "Condit's fitness for public office does not depend on the answers" in the Levy case. "The first, precious days after a disappearance offer police and family members their best chance to find a missing person; after that, the trail usually goes cold," the magazine's editors wrote. "And those early days were partly wasted because Representative Gary Condit cared more about his political career than about the life of a woman he supposedly considered a 'good friend.' " But House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt, D-Missouri, urged Condit's critics to hold off. "I think it's inappropriate to draw judgments and make conclusions on what may or may not be the facts," he said. "I think all of that will come in an appropriate time." Police searched a total of 19 abandoned buildings -- using cadaver dogs in some cases -- by the end of the day Thursday, but no clues were found. The search was concentrated in an area near the apartments of Levy and Condit, who lived about a dozen blocks apart, and is expected to cover a total of 80 buildings before it is finished. The 24-year-old former intern was last reported seen at a Washington gym. She had packed her bags and told her family she was coming home. There was still no word on when or if the 53-year-old married Condit would undergo a polygraph test. Word of a romantic relationship between Levy and the congressman came from Levy's aunt, who said the young woman spoke of the affair. In his third interview with investigators, Condit himself confirmed the intimate relationship, police sources said. Publicly, Condit has said only that they were "good friends." Ramsey said police were trying to reach an arrangement with Condit's attorney, Abbe Lowell, on how a lie detector test might be administered and its scope. Federal prosecutors considered
[CTRL] ABCNews: Condit Passes Polygraph
-Caveat Lector- http://www.abcnews.go.com/sections/politics/DailyNews/condit010713_pm.html Condit Passes Polygraph Sources: Condit Passes Test Commissioned by Lawyers Jennifer Thomas is shown in this undated yearbook photo (ABCNEWS.com). W A S H I N G T O N, July 13 - Rep. Gary Condit has taken and passed a lie detector test commissioned by his legal team, sources tell ABCNEWS. Until this afternoon, it had been unclear whether Condit, D-Calif., would take a lie detector test as part of the investigation into the disappearance of former intern Chandra Levy. Condit, who is 53 and married, has admitted to police he had a sexual relationship with the 24-year-old Levy. Police said they had asked Condit to take an FBI-administered test. Condit's attorney, Abbe Lowell, had said Condit would be willing to take a polygraph, but he also discounted the effectiveness of such tests. Lowell will hold a news conference on Condit's polygraph test later this afternoon. He is expected to announce the congressman he passed the test. News of the polygraph test comes hours after he turned over a DNA sample to investigators. The sample could be useful because it would help eliminate other DNA samples police may have found in Levy's apartment. Meanwhile, staffers for Condit reportedly have said their boss denies having a relationship with the daughter of a Pentecostal minister in Modesto, Calif. The minister, Otis Thomas, has told the FBI, as well as The Washington Post and the Modesto (Calif.) Bee, that his daughter had an affair with Condit beginning when she was 18 or 19. Condit's chief of staff, Mike Lynch, said the congressman has denied having any relationship with Thomas' daughter. "He said this is just not true," Lynch told the Bee. "We've asked him about the Post story and he said it's just not true." Vince Flammini, Condit's former driver, also told the Bee that he never saw the minister's daughter, Jennifer Thomas, and said Condit would never have taken the young woman to his home in Ceres, Calif., as the minister claims. "That's a bull [expletive] story," the driver said. "I worked for him all through that time. I was his driver. I've never seen that girl in my whole life." The woman herself has also apparently denied her father's story. A note was posted at her home, signed "Jennifer Thomas," saying that she did not know anything about what her father was talking about and had no relationship with the congressman. Though it would seem Condit's reputation has been damaged by his admission of an affair with Levy and reports of alleged affairs with two other women, the congressman's chief of staff told the Modesto Bee that Condit plans to run for re-election in 2002. "We decided some time ago he would run," Lynch told the paper. "There's no change in those plans." Rep. Bob Barr today dispatched a letter to the House Ethics Committee asking members to initiate a probe of Condit. On Thursday, the Georgia Republican said he thought Condit should resign. Meanwhile, police have expanded their search for Levy, looking in abandoned buildings around the city and today began preparations to scour landfills where trash from Levy's apartment building is dumped. Police had already been looking into the criminal background of other people who live in Levy's apartment building, and are now looking into other members of the Washington Sports Club, where Levy was a member. Lynch said the FBI had not interviewed anyone on Condit's staff and said he was unaware of plans for such interviews. Police Cmdr. Mark Beach said 80 buildings would be searched "at least through the weekend," and said it was "just a natural part of the broader investigative search" for the former intern. "We are assuming that these dwellings are open, a number of people may have access to them and we would be remiss if we didn't take a look at them," he said, adding that some of the buildings had already been searched. When asked whether the decision to go through the abandoned buildings, many of them empty apartment complexes, meant police expected to find a body, Beach said police were looking for "a body or anything at all." Trying Out Other Theories Investigators scoured some buildings on Thursday, accompanied by cadaver dogs looking for remains. In addition, a team of nine police officers who did not have cadaver dogs walked through a park near Condit's apartment. Investigators are also testing several items removed from Condit's apartment during a three-hour search carried out Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. In an interview with ABCNEWS, Assistant Police Chief Terrance Gainer said investigators have not ruled out the possibility that Levy is still alive and may have wandered off or purposely disappeared. Gainer said his office hopes to release new composite photos of Levy to the public, just in case the former intern has changed her appearance.

[CTRL] WARNING!! DITCHWEED ALERT!!!!
-Caveat Lector- Annual Ditchweed Eradication Boondoggle Underway Again -- Feds Spend $13 Million on Summer Jobs Program for Midwest Students, Bored Cops http://www.drcnet.org/wol/194.html#ditchweed "Feral cannabis," more commonly known as ditchweed, has been a part of the rural landscape from Indiana to the Dakotas and down as far as Texas for the last half-century. The hardy, opportunistic weed, descendant of the legally grown hemp of the World War II era, lines roadside ditches, the edges of farm fields and creek beds, and is an innocuous and generally unremarked upon part of Midwest country life. As countless Midwestern youths have discovered, the wild cannabis lacks sufficient THC content to have any psychoactive effects. "You'd have to smoke a joint the size of a telephone pole to get high off that stuff," is a common refrain among those who have tried it. "You can get a sore throat and a headache, but you can't get high." The folk wisdom on ditchweed is right, said internationally recognized cannabis expert Chris Conrad. "This stuff is feral cannabis left over from World War II when the US government subsidized hemp farming to help the war effort," Conrad told DRCNet. "It doesn't have any psychoactive effects," he added, "and that's been known since at least the 1970s." But that has not stopped the Drug Enforcement Administration from waging war on the harmless (and high-less) weed. Since its inception in 1979, the DEA's Domestic Cannabis Eradication/ Suppression Program has expanded rapidly from initial efforts in California and Hawaii to now operate in all 50 states. This year's budget is $13 million. While the DEA publicly touts the number of cultivated plants it destroys -- it claimed to have destroyed 3.5 million cultivated plants in 1999 -- the vast majority of plants spotted and sprayed in the campaign are ditchweed. The DEA no longer releases figures for ditchweed seizures, but in his book, "Marijuana in the Third World: Appalachia, USA," University of Kentucky sociologist Richard Clayton crunched official numbers from the late 1980s and early 1990s. "It is important to examine carefully how much of the marijuana eradicated in the US is essentially worthless ditchweed," wrote Clayton. "The answer is 95%." Clayton's research is not the only to pan the DEA's eradication efforts, nor the most damning. A 1998 report by the Vermont State Auditor placed the proportion of ditchweed in DEA's marijuana eradication program even higher, at 99.28% (http://www.drcnet.org/wol/041.html#ditchweed). When asked by DRCNet this week about current ditchweed to cultivated marijuana ratios, Clayton said, "Nobody knows for sure now because there is no independent audit. My guess is that roughly the same proportion is ditchweed, which is useless from a drug consumption point of view." And if this year's campaign is any indication, a figure of that order still stands. According to reports in the Munster (Indiana) Times: "It's marijuana season again, and that means law enforcement officials have begun searching trenches, roadways and farm fields in Northwest Indiana for the ditch weed." Indiana's share of the DEA's $13 million comes to $330,000, which it is using to employ a state trooper, a local farmer, and a crew of college students to patrol the fields of Nothwest Indiana. When the evil weed is spotted, the crew springs into action, spraying the plants with herbicide, then watching them wilt. "It's very difficult to kill," trooper Don Hartman told the local paper. "Once it goes to seed, it's spread by animals, birds or the wind. You have to actually destroy the seed and sterilize it, but it's not possible. We spray the plant but we have to keep checking the same area to see if it's really gone." While police are vigilant for ditchweed aficionados and warn area farmers to be on the lookout, they don't seem to find many. "A few years ago, the jails were packed with people who came to pick ditchweed," Hartman said. "We'd get phone calls about strange cars in the area or a hotel manager would call and say that someone from a different state was there, and we'd do a surveillance the next day. That's not true anymore. You don't see people coming from all over the country. We believe we've had some success." Or perhaps those unfortunate suburban Chicago kids finally got the word about ditchweed. The enthusiastic Hartman told the paper that in one year a decade ago, police destroyed 23 million ditchweed plants in the state with a value of $10 billion. Sounds impressive, until one considers that ditchweed has no value in the drug market. This would suggest a more modest value for the eradicated plants: zero. (Twenty-three million times zero still equals zero.) Hartman added that the herbicide spray doesn't kill the plants immediately. If you smoke it after it has been sprayed, it won't kill you, he told the Times, "but you won't get the same high." The Times reported that Hartman "

Palestine was a country invented by the Romans in 70 CE to separate the Jews they expelled from that region after the great revolt was lost. The Romans replaced all the Jewish and Biblical names and called it Pallestina. They expanded the coastal area called Philistia where the old Philistines used to live.

[CTRL] AP: Senate colleagues boost Torch's defense fund
-Caveat Lector- Senate colleagues boost Torricelli defense fund By Laurence Arnold, Associated Press, 7/13/2001 17:36 WASHINGTON (AP) Once cautious even with public expressions of support, Senate Democrats are rallying around Sen. Robert Torricelli with donations to help defray legal bills he has incurred as the subject of a federal investigation. In the past two months, Torricelli's legal defense fund received donations from political committees affiliated with Sens. Tom Daschle of South Dakota ($10,000), Hillary Clinton of New York ($10,000), John Breaux of Louisiana ($2,000), Harry Reid of Nevada ($500) and Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts ($500). The donations were listed in a report released Friday by Torricelli's office. In addition, Torricelli spokesman Dale Leibach said House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt of Missouri recently gave $10,000 the maximum amount allowed by law and the Democratic National Committee has promised a $10,000 contribution next week. ''I am grateful for the support I have received from my colleagues in the House and Senate, and the leadership of my party, throughout this long and costly investigation,'' Torricelli said in a statement, also thanking the people of New Jersey. Daschle, in a statement released by his DASHPAC, said Torricelli ''has forcefully stated that he has done nothing wrong. I believe him and will support his every effort to resolve this matter and put it behind him.'' Patti Solis Doyle, executive director of HILLPAC, said Clinton ''wanted to help her friend and colleague in this way.'' Torricelli formed the defense fund last fall in response to an ongoing federal investigation into his personal and political finances. Torricelli has never been charged, but seven people have pleaded guilty to making illegal donations to his 1996 Senate campaign. For a time, Torricelli's Democratic colleagues appeared reluctant to go to bat for him. But that has changed in recent weeks as Torricelli has gone on the offensive, accusing federal investigators of leaking damaging and inaccurate allegations about him to the press. Torricelli asked Attorney General John Ashcroft to name an independent counsel to oversee the case, since Torricelli had a role in ousting Ashcroft from the Senate last year. But Ashcroft has recused himself from the investigation, and his deputy, Larry D. Thompson, rejected the request for an independent counsel, leaving the case in the hands of Mary Jo White, the U.S. attorney in Manhattan. All told, Torricelli's legal fund collected $315,625 from 65 contributors from April 1 through June 30. Over the same period it paid $295,920 to law firms and an additional $5,460 in other expenses. Since the fund was created last fall, it has raised more than $977,000 and spent more than $704,000. Those figures are just a snapshot of the fund's status at the end of June and do not mean Torricelli has raised more than he needs. Torricelli is paying some legal bills through a separate campaign account. He has pledged to cover his own legal bills as well as those incurred by aides who worked on his 1996 campaign for the Senate. Roberta Stern, an executive assistant in Torricelli's Newark office, opened her own legal defense fund in March and no longer receives assistance from Torricelli's fund. Her latest report, also released Friday by her lawyers, show she received $40,150 in contributions over the past three months and spent $47,623. Former New Jersey Reps. Frank Guarini ($2,000) and Herb Klein ($2,500) were among the contributors to Torricelli's fund in the last three months. The fund received $1,000 from Mark S. Hochberg of Roseland, whose wife, Faith, was the U.S. attorney for New Jersey when the Torricelli investigation began in 1995. Hochberg recused herself from the case after Torricelli helped get her nominated to her current post as a federal judge in Newark. Casino developer Donald Trump gave $5,000. Dallas trial lawyers Frederick Baron and partner Russell Budd gave $10,000 and $5,000, respectively. Another Dallas law firm, Silber Pearlman, gave $10,000. Also giving $10,000 each were Andrew McKelvey, creator of the monster.com online job referral service and founder of Americans for Gun Safety; Bernard Schwartz, chairman of Loral Space & Communications; and Camden County, N.J., Democratic activist George Norcross.

[CTRL] FR: Condit's polygrapher Barry Colvert says Ron Carey passed lie test
-Caveat Lector- http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3b4f8c135b4e.htm Condit's Polygrapher Barry Colvert: Teamster President Ron Carey passed lie test, ex-FBI agent says POLYGRAPHER BARRY COLVERT TEAMSTER PRESIDENT RON CAREY Source: The Detroit News Published: January 22, 1998 Author: Richard A. Ryan Posted on 07/13/2001 17:02:27 PDT by Elle Bee Thursday, January 22, 1998 Carey passed lie test, ex-FBI agent says Polygraph supports claim he never knew about funding plan By Richard A. Ryan Senior Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON -- A former FBI lie detector expert testified Wednesday that Teamsters ex-President Ron Carey easily passed a polygraph test when asked if he ever took part in a "swap scheme" that illegally diverted union funds into his presidential campaign. "I did not find indication of deception," said Barry Colvert, who retired from the FBI a year ago after nearly 35 years. "And it really wasn't a close call." A short time later, Carey emphatically told a federal panel that he "absolutely" was unaware of the scheme in which the Teamsters union contributed money to organizations in exchange for their funneling money into Carey's campaign. The Independent Review Board, a three-member panel created by a 1989 agreement between the government and the Teamsters to monitor the union, is conducting three days of hearings to determine if Carey should be thrown out of the union he joined in 1955 and has led since 1992. Meanwhile, the New York U.S. Attorney conducting a criminal investigation of the tainted union election agreed to ask Jere Nash, Carey's chief accuser, to appear at the Review Board hearing. Nash, Carey's 1996 campaign manager, and Martin Davis, another top Carey aide, pleaded guilty to taking part in the illegal money-laundering scheme and are cooperating with the federal criminal investigation. Nash implicated Carey in the plot. But Nash cannot be compelled to testify before the Review Board and Frederick Lacey, a Review Board member who is acting as chairman, said he was "not optimistic" he would appear. Carey won a narrow victory over Detroit labor lawyer James P. Hoffa in the 1996 campaign. The election subsequently was overturned because of the illegal diversion of funds and Carey was barred from running again. He currently is on leave of absence as Teamsters president. But independent polygraph consultant Colvert told the board he tested Carey at the request of the labor leader's attorneys in late November. In a control test, Colvert said, it was easy to determine when Carey attempted to lie about a number he had picked between two and eight. The expert agreed he "nailed him" on the number test. But on the real test there was not the slightest indication that Carey was lying, Colvert said. Charles Carberry, the Review Board's chief investigator, suggested Carey may have been at ease during the test because he knew if he failed, the results would remain secret. Moreover, Carberry said, Carey has told and retold his story so many times to numerous investigating committees that he may be able to fool the machine. On the witness stand Wednesday, Carey retold his story once again. He said he fully agreed with the Teamsters union contributing $475,000 to Citizens Action; $175,000 to Project Vote and $85,000 to the National Council of Senior Citizens because they were all good grass-roots organizations that backed the same causes he did. But he vigorously denied approving the actual contributions or knowing that they were given only on the condition that the groups return a portion of the money to Carey's presidential campaign. Kenneth Conboy, a former federal judge who barred Carey from running for re-election, said in his decision he found Carey's denial of not knowing about such massive union gifts to be "incredible." === Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer*<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends === http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

Do your research before making stupid pronouncements." _ Nakano comments: It's unclear to me whether Dale or Steve made the above statement about Freonbut the statement is incorrect. Freon does not cause depletion of the ozone layer. It doesn't for the simple reason that there is no Freon in the upper atmosphere. This isn't what you have been told in the popular media, but it's factual nonetheless. There is a simple experiment you can perform to test this for yourself. A can of Freon isn't as easily obtained as it was several years ago before the government, the bribed scientists, and the media hyped the bogus story about Freon destroying the ozone layer.but you can still find a can of Freon if you try. Get some. Put a valve on the can (the type used to add Freon to an auto air conditioner). Hold the can upright, so you don't release any liquid Freon. Nowfill an ordinary balloon with Freon gas. You know how they put helium in balloons? Same thing here. Fill the balloon with Freon and then tie-off the balloon so the gas can't escape. Now you are ready for the experiment. Release the balloon! What happens? The balloon will not soar like an eagle. It won't even fly like a drunken turkey. In fact, it will quickly fall to the ground. Why? Because Freon (and other related CFC's) are 5 times heavier than air. FIVE TIMES HEAVIER THAN AIR!!! If Freon is released into the air, the Freon molecules will go to the ground and crawl into the lowest hole available. THERE IS NO FREON FLOATING AROUND 20 TO 40 MILES HIGH IN THE SKY! And since there is no Freon up there in the Ozone Layer, it follows that the Ozone is not being "depleted" by Freon. Regards to All Nakano __ Do You Yahoo!?

[CTRL] new science for the skeptics
-Caveat Lector- new science for the skeptics andrew hennessey much of the scientific skepticism that addresses theories of everything is based or rooted in the assumption that the Universe is linear. No proLINEAR skeptic could like what follows. The Universe is absolutely NON-LINEAR and behaves in an irregular but classifiably harmonic [base8] way. I might point out the fit between the 3 components of three dimensions and how these 3 components produce the physics of harmony, resonance and music - the maths of 8'ness. I might illustrate that: 3 basic quarks red, green blue - give 8 photon packets 3 basic base pairs in DNA produce 8 building blocks 3 off/on sequences give silicon based Artificial Intelligence that planets orbit at harmonic intervals, that stars and galaxies fly across the cosmos with harmonic redshift - but the linear-scientific skeptic will show that atomic theory isn't precise, organic chemsitry isn't that precise, that nothing neatly fits into clean cut boxes and therefore the whole idea is therefore wrong. But it is the scientific skeptic that is a priori prejudiced with a belief system that alleges that the cosmos is regular and smooth and linear and if it doesn't fit - it doesn't fit and therefore the scientific skeptic on those terms will happily dismiss from here to eternity any theory that doesn't neatly fit into their clean cut linear box. In my and Teslas opinion, however, the Universe is absolute non-linear chaos - which builds up structure and breaks down structure - [a dynamic duality between entropy and emergence] There are 2 or 3 mathematical tools which can be used to begin again from this fundamental truth. It doesn't mean binning lots of good data - just ditch the un-unity in physics and cosmology and adopt instead the Cornerstone Theories ; 1. of HARMONICS and Fourier transforms 2. Russell and Whiteheads SET THEORY you see in a totally chaotic universe - no set of data is going to be perfect - there are always going to be exceptions, but that the tools to cop e with these exceptions already exist - its called SET THEORY - sets of things with similar properties. A combination of SET theory and HARMONIC theory could complete the theory of relativity and enable mankind to step forward. Used together it would show that although things can be irregular and chaotic - they can be categorised into sets of roughly harmonic patterns For we have been standing still for nearly 100 years now in Cosmological and Physics terms - yes lots of new medicine and biotech - but NO INTERSTELLAR TRAVEL - no real physics - just tonnes and tonnes of stupid paradoxes - which all actually turn out to be the same paradox just dressed up in different jargon. these scientific paradoxes are caused by taking things out of CONTEXT - a classic symptom of reductionism. Unless we can lose this reductionist mindset - the human race will just run round and round in cyberspace waiting till the next big meteor comes along. andrew hennessey www.zeroparadoxuniversity.com http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] [Mind Control] - More Murder And Mayhem
-Caveat Lector- MENTAL PATIENT KILLS NURSE, POLICE SAY TWO ELDERLY PATIENTS ALSO INJURED IN RAMPAGE Palm Beach Post, Wednesday, April 11, 2001 by Colleen Mastony Palm Beach Post Staff Writer Page number 1A PORT ST. LUCIE - A mental patient who said he was sent by God to rid the world of bad people is accused of beating a nurse to death with his fists and injuring two other patients as he was being involuntarily committed to a hospital early Tuesday. An orderly said he had left nurse Alda Ellington, 47, alone with Alberto Serrano, 34, of Stuart after being called away to quiet a disturbance in another part of Savannas Hospital & Treatment Center. When the orderly left, Serrano was calmly eating a tuna fish sandwich. Ten minutes later another nurse saw him wandering the hallways. The orderly returned and found Ellington in a pool of blood inside the ward for severely disturbed patients. Serrano was charged with first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder and is being held without bail at the St. Lucie County jail. In a separate incident three days before, Serrano had punched a patient unprovoked while in the waiting room of a different psychiatric hospital, New Horizons in St. Lucie County, while he was waiting to be admitted there, according to a St. Lucie County Sheriff's report. Deputies arrested him on a misdemeanor charge of battery but released him the next day on $500 bond. Ellington had stopped breathing by the time paramedics arrived at Savannas at 2:45 a.m. She sustained head injuries and died at the scene, according to paramedics. After the rescue crew left with Ellington, a staff member discovered two elderly patients had been beaten while sleeping in their unlocked rooms. Olive Simpson, 75, of Wellington was in critical condition at St. Lucie Medical Center Tuesday night. Elizabeth Scott, 64, of Port St. Lucie, was treated at the St. Lucie Medical Center for a broken nose and released back to Savannas. Deputies found Serrano, 34, of 2917 Delmar Ave., soaking wet and quietly sitting in a chair outside the hospital. He had jumped in a nearby pond after the attack. Serrano answered basic questions and gave police his name and age in a low, unwavering voice. Asked what happened, he said, "I don't know." His swollen hands had deep cuts on the knuckles. Though he later confessed, officials were not sure whether that statement would be admissable in court because of questions surrounding his competency. "If he is found to be insane, then you could never prosecute," Assistant State Attorney Lynn Park said at a news conference Tuesday. "Whether they know right from wrong, that's the basic issue." Police had taken Serrano to New Horizons of the Treasure Coast on Friday, according to Serrano's girlfriend Nadia Pena, 27. Friends in a house where he had been staying called police after Serrano woke them up in the middle of the night, yelling "things from the Bible," preaching to and slapping them, Pena said. The friends refused to press charges, so Serrano was taken to New Horizons, Pena said. Out to punish 'bad people' "He always said the same thing," Pena said. "(He said:) 'Don't worry about anything because I'm going to take care of all the bad people in the world' " Bad people were those who "did not follow God's rules . . . like fornicators, child abusers, drug addicts, his wife," Pena said. Serrano was separated from his wife, according to Pena. She had known Serrano for three months. Pena bailed Serrano out of the St. Lucie jail Saturday after the incident at New Horizons. "He was fine. He was very happy to see me," she said. New Horizons chief operating officer John Romano declined to comment on the incident. Serrano also seemed fine on Monday when Pena arrived home from work about 8:30 p.m. She drove him back to his apartment and was about to leave when she found him in the bathroom with a knife. "He said, 'God is calling me and he wants me to do it,' " Pena said. She took him to Martin Memorial Medical Center about 12:30 a.m. Doctors there were familiar with him, Pena said, and they decided to transfer him to Savannas Hospital under the Baker Act, which allows officials to involuntarily commit a person who has been determined to be a threat to himself or others. Pena followed the transport car to Savannas Hospital. When Serrano arrived shortly after 2 a.m., the nurse at the intake station was busy with another patient. She asked orderly James Chambers, 32, to take Serrano back to the intensive treatment ward, Chambers said. Serrano was calm and cooperative as Chambers led him to the ward, in an isolated section of the hospital, and searched him for weapons, Chambers said. Serrano said he was hungry and Chambers gave him a tuna fish sandwich. "This guy was calm and cool," Chambers said. Chambers was the only male staff member on-duty that night, he said. Serrano seemed passive, and it seemed safe to leave him with Ellington when Chambers was called to another unit, Cham
[CTRL] The Feds Want to Zap Your Brain From Space
-Caveat Lector- >From The Village Voice, http://www.villagevoice.com/issues/0128/ridgeway2.shtml - Posted July 11th, 2001 4:45 PM villagevoice.com exclusive The Feds Want to Zap Your Brain From Space Psycho Warfare by James Ridgeway with Ariston-Lizabeth Anderson For most people, the mere mention of the Star Wars missile defense system recalls memories of wackos in the Reagan years. If only. Today, beneath all the scientific and military gobbledygook are programs that will make the H-bomb obsolete, replacing it with "nonlethal" electromagnetic zaps from the ionosphere designed to take out an enemy's entire communication system, change weather patterns by turning sunny skies into torrential downpours, and drive you literally crazy by shooting sounds into your head. Part of the High-Frequency Active Aural Research Program, or HAARP, this latest theoretical weapon shoots a zapping electromagnetic beam into the ionosphere, where it becomes superheated before being steered back to earth. The Pentagon claims this research will improve our communication system, but the technology could also be aimed at adversaries, domestic or foreign. Think how the Justice Department could have zapped David Koresh at Waco with a tissue-destroying beam. Instead of a bum sniper killing Randy Weaver's wife and baby with one lousy shot, the feds could have used the new technology to take out Weaver alone. Law enforcement officials dream of the day they can use the technology to take out drug traffickers and terrorists. Just imagine what it could do to Osama bin Laden, even as he hides in an Afghan redoubt. Best of all, the victims of the attack don't have a clue where it's coming from, or even that it's an attack. Project HAARP builds on military research projects originating in the 1950s. The closest the government comes to plain-speak is a report from the air force's scientific advisory board on weapons for the 21st century. Unearthed by independent investigator Nick Begich, the report states: "One can envision the development of electromagnetic energy sources, the output of which can be pulsed, shaped, and focused, that can couple with the human body in a fashion that will allow one to prevent voluntary muscular movements, control emotions with both short-term and long-term memory, produce an experience set, and delete an experience set." What's more, the technology may be able to create high-fidelity speech in humans, "raising the possibility of covert suggestion and psychological direction." It may be possible to "talk" to selected adversaries "in a fashion that would be most disturbing to them." Tell us what you think.

[CTRL] Amelia Earhart's aircraft 'spotted' from space
-Caveat Lector- >From Ananova, http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_350667.html?menu=news.scienceanddiscove ry - Historic plane wreck 'spotted' from space The wreckage of Amelia Earhart's aircraft which disappeared in 1937 may have been found. Scientists say a satellite photograph of Nikumaroro Island in the south west Pacific shows a rust-coloured object lying on a coral reef. A team of divers is to set out to the island as it is impossible to get a definitive answer to the 64-year-old mystery from the picture. They also hope to discover whether the adventurer and her co-pilot survived for any time on the island itself. Earhart and Frederick Noonan's aircraft disappeared without trace during an attempt to fly around the world. A team from The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery has spent 12 years trying to trace it. The group based its search on fishermen's reports and circumstantial evidence before arranging for high resolution images of the island to be taken. Richard Gillespie, TIGHAR's executive director, told Space.com he plans to have divers at the site very soon. He added: "There does appear to be an object on the edge of the reef, off the western end of the island. It's in a particularly suspicious location." Human bones which were previously discovered on the island are now being re-examined.

[CTRL] Congress Hears Alien Life Testimony
-Caveat Lector- >From The AP, http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/ap/20010713/pl/life_out_there_2.html - Friday July 13 2:42 AM ET Congress Hears Alien Life Testimony By PAUL RECER, AP Science Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - Scientists studying the possibility of extraterrestrial life were encouraged by members of Congress, just seven years after some lawmakers dismissed the efforts as a search for ``little green men.'' In a hearing Thursday of the House space science subcommittee, lawmakers applauded efforts to find evidence of life elsewhere in the universe and to search for other Earthlike worlds. ``The discovery of life in the universe would be one of the most astounding discoveries in human history,'' said Rep. Lamar Smith (news - bio - voting record), R-Texas. ``Funding should match public interest and I don't believe it does.'' Smith said that since funds for the search for extra terrestrial intelligence (SETI) were booted out of the federal budget in 1994, ``the SETI credibility has been enhanced.'' Four scientists appearing as witnesses said that in the last five years the concept that life exists beyond the Earth has been boosted by dramatic discoveries both on Earth and in space. Among the advances cited: - At least 50 planets have been found in orbit of distant, sun-like stars in the last five years and researchers now believe that solar systems may be common through out the universe. Finding planets was considered an essential step toward finding life. ``All of these planets are Jupiter-size or larger,'' said Ed Weiler, NASA (news - web sites)'s associate administrator for space science. ``No Earth-like planets have been found, but we don't yet have the technology'' to detect planets the size of Earth in orbit of distant stars. However, Weiler said that a space observatory now being built will be able to search for the chemical signatures of life in the atmospheres of planets up to 50 light years away. -Liquid water is considered an essential chemical for the development of life and it has been found now on moons of Jupiter and in the orbit of at least one distant star. There is also strong proof that water was once common on Mars and there are plans to search beneath the Martian surface for evidence of water, the most likely place for life on the Red Planet. -Detailed studies of galaxies suggest that the formation of planets and solar systems may be common. The Hubble space telescope has captured many images of stars surrounded by the dust and gas clouds thought to be precursors for planets. -Researchers have found bacteria that live in the coldest of salt water, in the deep pressure and heat of volcanic vents at the bottom of the ocean, and in the most acid of environments. Since life is possible in such hostile environments on Earth, then it may also have developed in extreme conditions that may exist on other planets. In 1994, some members of Congress ridiculed the SETI Institute and its efforts to detect radio signals from alien civilizations, calling the effort ``a search for little green men.'' The SETI concept fell so far out of favor that the National Science Foundation (news - web sites) put a notation on its Web site that proposals for SETI research were not welcome. Christopher F. Chyba, a leader of the SETI Institute in California, said that since losing its congressional funding, the program has been supported by private donations, has about 120 employees, and is regularly searching for signals on two million radio channels using a major radio telescope in Puerto Rico. Chyba said SETI, in partnership with the University of California, Berkeley, is now building a $30 million radio telescope array that will be able to listen to signals from the nearest one million stars in many channels. And, said Chyba, the NSF has now removed its restriction on funding of SETI research. Proposals for SETI research now compete for funding ``on a level playing field'' with other research proposals, he said. Rep. Zoe Lofgren (news - bio - voting record), D-Calif., said it was impressive that SETI continued to thrive even though federal funds were cut off, and she said the federal government should not be against the research. ``We need to let the federal agencies know that bias against SETI research is not favored,'' said Lofgren. ``No member of this committee wants bias against any good science.'' - On the Net: NASA Science: http://www.science.nasa.gov/ Extra Solar planets: http://exoplanets.org/ -- Dan S http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Bush Details Studies on Global Warming
-Caveat Lector- Friday July 13 6:18 PM ET Bush Details Studies on Global Warming WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Bush (news - web sites) said on Friday his administration will invest tens of millions of dollars in studies to see how best to fight global warming. Just days before an international conference on the Kyoto pact on global climate change -- which Bush has rejected as ''fatally flawed'' -- the White House said it was moving forward on studies to see how best to reduce greenhouse gases. Bush said in a statement that NASA (news - web sites) will invest more than $120 million over the next three years in research on the natural carbon cycle, climate modeling and the link between atmospheric chemistry and climate. The U.S. Department of Energy (news - web sites) has signed agreements for two other projects to study programs that can absorb carbon, known as ``carbon sequestration.'' The first agreement is with the Nature Conservancy, the world's largest private international conservation group, to study land use and forestry practices for storing carbon more effectively in Brazil and Belize. The second is with a group of international energy companies -- BP-Amoco, Royal Dutch/Shell, Chevron and Texaco ; PanCanadian and Suncor Energy of Canada, ENI of Italy, Statoil Forskningssenter and Norsk Hydro of Norway. That group will help develop a new set of technologies for reducing the cost of capturing carbon dioxide from fossil fuel combustion plants. Grants for six other sequestration research projects have also been awarded under the $25 million initiative that Bush said leverages an additional $50 million from the private sector and foreign governments. The Department of the Treasury also entered into a $14 million ``debt for forest'' agreement with El Salvador (news - web sites) under the tropical Forest Conservation Act, Bush said. He said the U.S. Department of Commerce is bringing together more than 100 scientists from the United States, Mexico and South America to study the regional impacts of climate change. STABILIZING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS The U.N. climate change convention set a nonbinding and unrealized goal of stabilizing emissions of greenhouse gases at 1990 levels by 2000. The Kyoto protocol, a follow- up to that, committed developed countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 5.2 percent below 1990 levels by 2012. The United States, the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases, signed the 1997 Kyoto agreement, but Bush pulled out of the accord before it was ratified by the Senate. He said it would damage the U.S. economy and was unfair because it did not set targets for cutting emissions by developing countries like China and India, two potentially large emitters. Bush said last month the 1997 Kyoto agreement was ``fatally flawed'' but he added that his administration was committed to developing an effective, science-based response to the issue of global warming. He said he would boost U.S. spending on research and development to fight global warming and work to find an international solution to the problem. The initiatives announced on Friday represent the first step in that effort, White House spokesman Ari Fleischer (news - web sites) said. But the White House has not yet formulated an alternative strategy to the rejected Kyoto protocol. When asked about criticism that Bush rejected the Kyoto accord without providing an alternative, a senior administration official said it was important to fully understand the science of the issue before deciding on a policy to deal with it. ``We're doing it deliberately and thoroughly,'' he said. ''This is a very complicated issue. ... In this next phase we will be undertaking more consultations ... to gather more input and ideas and again look at these range of policies.''

Original Message-From: WPC info [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Friday, July 13, 2001 12:39 PM: International Appeal Against the New World Order and for the Release of Sl. Milosevic INTERNATIONAL INITIATIVE FROM GREECE Nineteen public figures of Greece, from all political parties, signed the following international appeal protesting against the new world order and demanding the release of Slobodan Milosevic. Among them there are people with international prestige, such as Mikis Theodorakis, former government ministers of Greece, vice-presidents of the Greek parliament, scientists and intellectuals. They call upon public figures from all over the world to sign this appeal and to mobilize in this direction. INTERNATIONAL APPEAL The dramatic events being experienced by all of humanity owing to the unprecedented process of handing over and selling out the former President of Yugoslavia, his indictment by and deliverance to the so-called "International Court of Justice on former Yugoslavia" violate and abolish all concepts of national sovereignty and international law. These events were the result of the heavy and multiple pressures exerted by NATO, whose leaders should be on trial for their attack against Yugoslavia, in which they sowed death and destruction, flagrantly and cynically violating the UN Founding Charter. Through these actions, an effort is being made to penalise international political life, to overthrow International Law completely and to create a terrorist international framework of "rules and institutions" that will bring to trial and convict all those who resist the barbarity of the new international order. We protest strongly and express our absolute opposition to these actions. We call upon all those who refuse to keep silent or to give their consent to the rule of "might is right" and ask them to join us and mobilise for the release of Slobodan Milosevic, former President of Yugoslavia, to bring a halt to these unacceptable processes, and to prevent the penalisation of international political life.1.

[CTRL] Mind Control Murders Plague The U.S.A.
-Caveat Lector- Have you seen any stories like these in your local newspaper lately? === Order to murder came from 'devil,' expert testifies By William Cole Advertiser Courts Writer © COPYRIGHT 2001 The Honolulu Advertiser Wednesday, April 4, 2001 The man accused of murdering a vacuum cleaner salesman in Waialua said he was on a "mission" to kill people and chop up their bodies after voices commanded him to do so, a psychiatrist testified yesterday. Dr. Robert Collis interviewed Michael Robert Lawrence after he was charged with second-degree murder in the 1999 disappearance of Melchor Tabag. When Collis asked Lawrence why he was at Hawai'i State Hospital, Lawrence "said he was hearing voices telling him to kill him (Tabag) and chop him up. He said he chopped him up and brought him to the dump," Collis testified in Circuit Court yesterday. According to Lawrence's lawyer, Tabag unwittingly became a victim of the defendant's psychosis when he knocked on Lawrence's door on March 27, 1999, with the goal of selling him a Kirby vacuum cleaner. Lawrence, 25, is on trial without a jury before Circuit Judge Virginia Crandall on charges that he murdered the 41-year-old vacuum cleaner salesman whose body was never found. Lawrence's lawyer is raising the insanity defense. During defense opening arguments yesterday, Deputy Public Defender William Jameson said Lawrence spiraled into a world of delusional thinking. Isolating himself from the outside world, he became fixated on an unplugged computer monitor he once placed on the roof of his parents' Waialua home, Jameson said. Lawrence "became sicker and sicker" and troubling voices became a command, Jameson said. "His mission was to kill and chop people up." "What he (Tabag) found was a man Michael Lawrence who thought and believed Mr. Tabag would be the first of several (victims) to come," Jameson said. "Michael calmly struck the victim in the head and then stabbed him and then dismembered him." City Deputy Prosecutor Kevin Takata said a refuse transfer station between Hale'iwa and Waimea Bay is the "dump" talked about by Lawrence, but police did not search there for Tabag's body because they heard about the dump more than a year after Tabag disappeared, and also because rubbish there is routinely moved to two other spots on the island. Yesterday, Collis reported other bizarre behavior by Lawrence. While at the O'ahu Community Correctional Center, Lawrence didn't speak to anyone for weeks on end, collected his urine and smeared feces around the cell, Collis said. Lawrence also told Collis that Bill and Hillary Clinton were his parents, that he was part of Microsoft, that he worked for the CIA and as an insurance agent, and that the "devil" gave him his mission to kill. Lawrence, his ankles shackled and wearing a green OCCC jumpsuit, sat looking down yesterday, his curly long hair shrouding his face. Lawrence faces life in prison with the possibility of parole if he is convicted of second-degree murder. If he is acquitted by reason of insanity and deemed dangerous, he will be committed to the state mental hospital. Two mental health experts who examined Lawrence Collis included concluded he was "substantially impaired" at the time of the killing. A third expert, along with an expert hired by the state, said Lawrence was not substantially impaired. == Copyright 2000 -- The Detroit News. Beating death spurs bystander law Plan would require injury witnesses to notify authorities Thursday, October 5, 2000 By Associated Press KALAMAZOO -- The beating death of an aspiring social worker in a bus station where at least five adults ignored the attack has prompted two legislators to draft a "Good Samaritan" law. The legislation being drafted by state Sen. Dale Shugars, R-Portage, and Rep. Jerry Vander Roest, R-Galesburg, would require that people witnessing someone gravely injured immediately notify authorities. The proposal is a response to the Aug. 17 beating death of Kevin Heisinger, 24. He was headed home to Chicago from orientation at the University of Michigan's social work program when he was attacked. Brian Williams, 40, of Ypsilanti has been charged in Heisinger's death and ordered to undergo a psychiatric evaluation. Authorities have said Williams has suffered from schizophrenia for 20 years, and reportedly told his brother he heard voices telling him to kill. He allegedly beat Heisinger to death in a restroom while at least five people sat within earshot of the attack and did not notify police. No one is believed to have witnessed the attack. But police said several people heard Heisinger cry "stop" and "help" -- and one man went into the restroom, saw the victim lying in a pool of blood and walked out. A second man found Heisinger unconscious and also left without calling for help. A 9-year-old boy finally notified personnel at the bus terminal, where the city Department of Public Safety has a substation
[CTRL] Russia Tests Missile Defense System
http://www.geostrategy-direct.com/ Russia tests new S-400 missile defense system MOSCOW — Russia is said to have tested a new system being marketed to the Middle East and capable of ballistic missile interception. The system is the S-400 Triumph, the successor of the S-300 and regarded as the most advanced anti-aircraft battery developed by Russia. The Triumph is said to be able to intercept both ballistic and cruise missiles. The test was conducted by two Russian firms, Almaz and Antei. The two companies have jointly developed and tested the S-400, the Moscow-based Military News Agency reports. Russian defense sources said the S-400 can destroy a range of missiles and aircraft. This includes the U.S. Tomahawk cruise missile. U.S. officials said Moscow is marketing the S-400 to several Middle East countries. These include Egypt, Greece, Iran and Libya. Russian officials have touted the S-400 as more capable than the U.S. PAC-3 system. In Washington, the Pentagon plans the next test of its missile interceptor. The Ballistic Missile Defense Organization will on July 14 launch a modified Minuteman II intercontinental ballistic missile from an air force base in California. Twenty minutes later, an interceptor missile carrying a prototype exoatmospheric kill vehicle will be launched from the Marshall Islands. An interception is expected 10 minutes later over the Pacific Ocean. This will be the fourth intercept test of the missile defense research and development program. The last two tests have failed. Meanwhile, the Bush administration is examining a proposal to invite additional contractors for the U.S. missile defense program. Officials said the Defense Department is considering alternatives to subsystems in a missile interceptor, which has failed in the last two launches. The current program is led by Boeing and Raytheon and officials are acknowledging that the engineering problems in the so-called kill vehicle are proving difficult to surmount. The missile defense program is said to be 18 months behind schedule. The prospect of additional contractors is being facilitated by administration plans to add $3 billion to missile defense in fiscal 2002. Boeing and the Pentagon's Ballistic Missile Defense Organization are examining which companies could join the program. The program is meant to defend against missiles by rogue states such as Iran, Iraq and North Korea. North Korea recently conducted a ground test on a rocket engine, a move that the Bush administration said does not violate previous commitments issued by Pyongyang. "They have recently, we believe, tested a motor engine, a rocket engine, and there is nothing in itself wrong with that," Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage said.
[CTRL] Police 'spotters' to target EU summit demonstrators
-Caveat Lector- Police 'spotters' to target EU summit demonstrators Fri, 13 Jul 2001 : British police hooligan "spotters" are to be used at future EU summits to help single out known troublemakers at "peaceful" protests. The tactic, already routine at soccer matches around the world, is being applied for the first time to high-profile European political gatherings. The move comes over growing concerns that organised gangs of rioters are now targeting all major meetings of international leaders and was agreed at unprecedented talks between EU ministers in Brussels. Only one item was on the agenda - how to stop the kind of trouble which is fast becoming the norm during protests at European and international political events. The most recent disturbances, which alarmed EU leaders, came during the EU summit in Gothenburg last month, when Swedish police resorted to live ammunition rounds to quell rioters, injuring three in the process. The fact that the Swedish authorities do not permit tear gas and had no water cannon available, glaringly highlighted different national approaches to tackling street violence. The ministers made no attempt to prescribe a single EU strategy for policing riots but they did agree to pool experiences, step up cross-border cooperation and information exchange, and anticipate the troublemakers by bringing in the spotters. The ministers agreed that legitimate peaceful demonstrators had the right to be heard, but that violent demonstrations had to be stamped out. Trained "spotters" from the fifteen member states will now be consulted in advance about likely troublemakers and will in future become part of the normal security arrangements wherever EU leaders meet.

[CTRL] City Living Linked To Psychosis?
-Caveat Lector- http://www.rense.com/general11/symp.htm City-Living Linked To Increased Psychotic Symptoms (Big Surprise) 7-130-1 NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Urban dwelling has never been known for its soothing effects, but new research suggests that people living in large cities are more likely than small-town residents to exhibit psychotic-like symptoms such as paranoia and delusions. In a study of more than 7,000 people in the Netherlands, investigators found that both full-blown psychotic disorders and milder psychosis-like symptoms were more common among those living in urbanized areas. The link was most apparent among people born and raised in densely populated areas, suggesting that childhood environment may create ``enduring liabilities'' for adult psychiatric health, according to the researchers. Dr. Jim van Os of Maastricht University and colleagues report the findings in the July issue of the Archives of General Psychiatry.The researchers divided the study participants into groups living in one of five levels of urbanization, which were based on population density. Through interviews, van Os and his colleagues determined that the prevalence of psychiatric symptoms increased along with participants' level of urbanization. In the overall population, the prevalence of any type of psychotic symptoms over a lifetime was about 4% to 17%, depending on the definition of symptoms. The investigators looked at the number and severity of symptoms such as feelings of persecution or auditory hallucinations. Only about 1% suffered mental illnesses such as major depression, and even fewer had been affected by schizophrenia-like disorders. The fact that such symptoms were more common in urban settings could be partly explained by symptomatic individuals having ``drifted'' to these areas, the authors note. However, they add, their previous research has shown population stability in cities--that is, around 75% of city dwellers were born there. And a number of studies have demonstrated that psychotic illness is more prevalent in urban settings than in rural areas, the report indicates. ``The high rates of psychotic illness in urban environments may be the result of the influence of environmental factors,'' van Os and colleagues write. ``As the urban effect appears to have its impact during urban upbringing rather than during adult residence per se, developmental mechanisms ought to be considered.'' The fact that in this study, psychosis-like symptoms as well as full-blown illnesses were more common in cities suggests a greater ``psychosis proneness'' in urban settings, they add. Why this potential connection exists is unclear, but the researchers note that deprivation and social isolation in childhood neighborhoods have been shown to affect mental health. Another recent study in Denmark linked urban birth with an increased of developing schizophrenia. While family history was a far greater predictor of the risk, place of birth emerged as an environmental factor. Those researchers speculated that people born in urban areas are exposed to more infections during prenatal development and childhood. Some experts believe early exposure to infections may affect the developing brain in a way that makes it more vulnerable to schizophrenia.

Ozone depletion and global warming are both mainly caused by changes in the atmosphere due to human activities. Global warming is due to the build-up of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere and is not caused by ozone depletion. Some chemicals which deplete ozone, such as CFCs and halons, also trap heat in the atmosphere and contribute to global warming. However, ozone depletion actually causes cooling in the upper atmosphere, and this may partially offset the heat-trapping effect of some ozone-depleting substances. The net result of the heating and cooling caused by ODSs is the subject of current scientific investigation. - -- June Check out Alternative Kite Radio -- http://www.altkiteradio.trancetechno.com for: Alternative Kite Radio (low-bandwidth) Alternative Kite Radio (high-bandwidth) Alternative Kite Summer Beachparty Radio (because it's always summer somewhere on the globe) Alternative Kite Holiday Radio (because everyday is a holiday somewhere) http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Blowing Smoke on Stem-Cell Research
-Caveat Lector- Wesley Smith: Blowing Smoke on Stem-Cell Research Source: National Review; July 12, 2001 [ Wesley Smith is the author of Culture of Death: The Assault on Medical Ethics in America published by Encounter Books. You can purchase his books online in the books section of http://www.roevwade.org] There is an old saying among trial lawyers that goes something like this: "If you can't argue the facts, argue the law, if you can't argue the facts or the law, blow smoke." This proverb is equally applicable to political arguments. In the Great Stem-Cell Debate the smoke blown by proponents of federal funding for embryonic-stem-cell research (ESCR) has grown so thick that global-warming activists should sound the alarm. Up until now, those who advocate federal funding for ESCR have driven the debate. This isn't surprising given the blatantly biased coverage by the mainstream media as exposed by the Statistical Assessment Service (STATS), which I described in a previous NRO piece. But now, opponents of federal funding are beginning to hope that time may actually be on their side. Indeed, the longer President Bush ponders what to do, the clearer the air is becoming. The following are the primary arguments in favor of federal funding. What once appeared to be concrete pillars supporting a compelling argument have turned out to be constructed out of wispy particulate matter that may be beginning to collapse. Only IVF Embryos Would Be Targeted For Destruction: The American people are deeply pragmatic. Thus, the most potent argument in favor of federal funding has been the promise that only embryos destined for destruction from IVF fertility experiments would be used in federally funded research. Opponents' response to this argument--that no law requires these embryos to be destroyed, that some might be ultimately adopted by infertile couples, that such attitudes lead directly to the slippery slope, etc--while certainly true, have not persuaded a public that seems to view the use of unneeded IVF embryos as being akin to recycling aluminum cans. But a story has now exploded into the news that should shatter this popular complacency. Scientists at the Jones Institute for Reproductive Medicine in Norfolk, Virginia bragged in a press release that they paid women between $1,500 and $2,000 apiece for their eggs, and then used them -- with the egg providers' consent -- to create embryos for the purpose of destroying them in ESCR. These scientists claim that making embryos for research is "as ethical" as using frozen IVF embryos. Moreover, they contend, freshly created embryos might be "superior" for research purposes to those thawed out of a deep freeze. If that is true, how long would scientists be content to use "in excess of need" IVF embryos? The response of pro-ESCR scientists and bioethicists to this development has been especially telling. Rather than forcefully and unequivocally condemning Jones Institute, their primary complaint has been that the "timing could not have been worse" -- meaning that the disclosure makes a bad appearance that could give President Bush grounds to refuse federal funding. There has been no reported outcry from the ESCR crowd that the creating human embryos solely for the purpose of destroying them in research is immoral. With this breaking story, it is now clear that the IVF boundary would never hold. Instead, federally funding ESCR would merely free up private dollars, now used for IVF research, to fund the kind of activities undertaken by the Jones Institute. Moreover, we must not forget that the biotech industry is lobbying hard against the Weldon Bill -- crucial legislation that would ban all human cloning -- on the basis that cloning would be a necessary aspect of embryonic-stem-cell medicine should the research ever become clinically viable. Thus, all of this talk of restricting the research to IVF embryos is really nothing but the old bait and switch. Embryos Would Not Really Be Destroyed in the Research: Some advocates of federal funding who are queasy at the thought of destroying embryos have settled their uneasy tummies by changing the scientific definitions. Thus, the Washington Times's Suzanne Fields wrote, "Though these fertilized eggs are popularly referred to as embryos, they really aren't, not until implanted in a uterine wall. They are more precisely blastocysts." Fields may be a good writer but she clearly doesn't know her human biology. An embryo by any other name is still an embryo. The 1989 edition of the American Medical Association's Encyclopedia of Medicine explicitly states, "From the time of conception until the eight week, the developing baby is known as an embryo." In its earliest stage of life the embryo is known as a zygote. The embryo is called a blastocyst when it reaches the stage of development where it can implant into the womb. At this point the embryo may be made up of more than a hundred cells encased in an embryonic lining.
[CTRL] Condit Not Labled as Dem in 92% of Media Stories (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- MRC Study: In 92% of Levy Stories Networks Refused to Label Gary Condit as a Democrat Below is the text of a new Media Reality Check compiled by s Rich Noyes, the MRC's Director of Media Analysis, and distributed this afternoon by fax. It's headlined, "Avoiding Gary Condit's Democratic ID; MRC Study: Networks Failed to Label California Congressman as a Democrat in 92% of Levy Stories." To view it as fax recipients saw it, access the Adobe Acrobat PDF version: http://www.mediaresearch.org/news/reality/2001/pdf/fax0712.pdf But first, a few quick examples outside the study parameters of media outlets refusing to inform viewers or readers about Condit's party affiliation: -- Nightline. Last night's show was devoted entirely to Condit and Chandra Levy, but in 22 or so minutes of air time neither anchor Chris Bury or reporter Pierre Thomas ever mentioned that Condit is a Democrat. -- In their July 16 editions, neither Newsweek, in a nearly 1500 word story by Michael Isikoff with Daniel Klaidman, Eleanor Clift and Andrew Murr, nor Time in a short up front "Notebook" item by Margaret Carlson, identified Condit as a Democrat. Now, to the MRC Study as outlined in today's Media Reality Check. It is based upon an MRC review of the morning and evening shows on ABC (Good Morning America and World News Tonight), CBS (The Early Show and CBS Evening News) and NBC (Today and NBC Nightly News) from May 14 to July 11. (The analysis included the weekend Today shows as well as the weekend ABC, CBS and NBC evening shows, which is relevant since it has been falsely reported, such as in today's USA Today, that the CBS Evening News has not reported on the case. While the CBS Evening News has ignored the story on weekdays, it aired a story on Saturday July 7 and two reports on Sunday July 8, none of which identified Condit's party.) Overall results: ABC: 67 stories, 3 Democratic labels (4%) CBS: 38 stories, 2 Democratic labels (5%) NBC: 74 stories, 9 Democratic labels (12%) Total: 179 stories, 14 Democratic labels (8%) The text of the July 12 Media Reality Check: On July 9, ABC's George Stephanopoulos confidently predicted on Good Morning America that "I don't think the rest of the Democratic Party is going to get tarred by Gary Condit" as a result of the California Congressman's adulterous affair with a young woman, Chandra Levy, who has been the subject of intense police activity since she ominously disappeared on May 1. Probably not, and one reason may be that ABC and its broadcasting brethren have downplayed Condit's partisan affiliation through- out their coverage of the Levy story. Normally, a "Republican" or "Democrat" label is presented nearly every time a member of Congress is cited, as in "Rep. Gary Condit (D-CA)." But since May, the three broadcast networks have practically erased the "D" from Condit's political identity, detaching the scandal-plagued politician from the rest of his party. >From May 14, when Chandra's mother, Susan, appeared on Good Morning America to plead for her daughter's safe return, through July 11, ABC, CBS and NBC morning and evening news programs aired a total of 179 stories about Gary Condit -- 121 full-length reports or interviews, plus 58 brief anchor-read items. MRC researchers reviewed each story, and found that Condit was labeled a "Democrat" only 14 times, or in fewer than eight percent of stories. Six of those labels, or almost half, came paired with adjectives such as "conservative" or "right-wing" which distinguished Condit from other members of his party. "A political maverick who rides a Harley, Condit founded the Blue Dog coalition of conservative Democrats," Stephanopoulos himself reported on the June 25 Good Morning America, the program's first hint that Condit was a Democrat after 26 stories on the Levy case. Stephanopoulos then rued to host Charles Gibson: "He was the kind of guy, when you were working for Democrats in the House, you could never count on his vote." Two weeks later, ABC's Brian Rooney similarly described Condit as "a Democrat who often votes with the Republican opposition." NBC's George Lewis shoved Condit to the furthest fringe of the Democratic Party on July 2, branding him "a 53-year-old right- wing Democrat." Condit's ideological ratings, however, place him squarely in the middle of the spectrum: After 12 years in Congress, Condit gets a 48 percent rating from the American Conservative Union and a 52 percent score from the liberal Americans for Democratic Action. Six additional stories conveyed Condit's affiliation without using a straightforward label. On the July 8 CBS Evening News, for example, Sandra Hughes didn't quite say that Condit was a Democrat but remarked that "the Republican Party also sees weakness and may focus on gaining his congressional seat." But even adding those six stories to those that plainly labeled Condit leaves 159 network stories, or 89 percent of the total coverage,

[CTRL] Bank Pres Drags Journalist into NY Court Over Drug Expose
-Caveat Lector- Electronic Frontier Foundation Media Advisory For Immediate Release: July 12, 2001 Contact: Cindy Cohn, EFF Legal Director, [EMAIL PROTECTED], +1 415 436-9333 x108 Will Doherty, EFF Media Relations, [EMAIL PROTECTED], +1 415 436-9333 x111 Bank Pres Drags Journalist into NY Court Over Drug Expose Electronic Frontier Foundation Urges U.S. Court to Respect Mexican Rulings New York City, NY - The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) today urged a New York state court to respect Mexican court rulings that have disallowed lawsuits against independent journalist Al Giordano for publishing allegations of drug trafficking by Banco Nacional de Mexico President Roberto Hernandez Ramirez. EFF seeks to protect the First Amendment rights of online, independent journalists against the abusive "shopping" by large, powerful corporations for favorable jurisdictions. The Mexican bank brought the case against a Mexican-based website, The Narco News Bulletin ( http://www.narconews.com ), produced solely by Giordano. "The EFF is concerned that the bank resorted to New York courts to try to shut down this website because it could not do so in Mexican courts," said Cindy Cohn, Legal Director for the EFF. "This kind of forum shopping threatens to shut down one of the greatest benefits of the Internet -- giving a voice to independent, Internet-based journalists. Faced with having to defend themselves in far-flung jurisdictions, many independent journalists will simply choose not to publish on the Internet." The case arises from allegations published on the The Narco News Bulletin website that the bank president was involved in illegal activities in Mexico. The EFF filed an amicus brief urging the New York court to rule that it was improper for the bank to force Mr. Giordano into New York state court for the statements posted on the website. The hearing on the case is set for July 20, 2001. Since April 18, 2000, Al Giordano has produced The Narco News Bulletin, an online newspaper devoted to spirited investigative journalism on the US-Latin America drug trade. Articles posted on The Narco News Bulletin website have discussed allegations by others that Roberto Hernandez Ramirez, the president of the Banco Nacional de Mexico, is involved in drug trafficking. Some of these stories were reprinted articles from the Mexican newspaper Por Esto!, published in Mexico by Mario Renato Menendez. After failing three times to sue Menendez in Mexico over the allegations, Banco Nacional de Mexico now seeks to force Menendez and Giordano to defend themselves in New York state court against the same basic claims. The New York case groups together the allegations against the Mexican-based website, hosted in Maryland, with statements made by Menendez and Giordano in New York City on a radio broadcast and at a Columbia University Law School conference. The EFF amicus brief asked the Court to adopt one of two courses of action. First, in order to deter abusive forum shopping, the EFF asked the court to dismiss the case since Mexican law governs the dispute. Alternatively, since Narconews.com mainly republished investigative work done by others, the EFF asked the New York court to apply a distinct legal standard for libel claims related to republished statements. The legal standard requires that a republisher had, or should have had substantial reasons to question the accuracy of the articles. EFF believes that this higher liability standard for republishing on the Internet is necessary to encourage the growth of Internet journalism.

[CTRL] Migrants harm US economy
-Caveat Lector- Report: Migrants harm US economy By Bill Hillburg LA Daily News WashingtonâLarge scale migrations of Mexicans to southern California and the United States undermines the economy, overtaxes schools and other services, and creates a permanent underclass of uneduated and unskilled poor, a nonpartisan think tanksai in a report issued Thursday. The report by the Center for immigration studies, a Washington based research organization focusing on immigration cited southern California as the epi-center of social and economic ills related to mexican immigration, which rose nearly 1,000 per cent nationwide from 1970 to 2000. The organization which advocates stict immigaration controls, urged President Bush to scrap proposals for increased immigration from Mexico and also called for a crack down on undocumented immigrants and their US employers. It further advocated a ban on adult immigrants who lack basic education and skills. "We keep hearing arguments that immigrants are making this country rich," said Mark Krikorian, CIS director. "But nobody has really looked into the lissues to see if this is true." KriKorian said the center's study focused on Mexican immigrants because they are the largest single group of newcomers now entering the United States. The report drew fire from the supporters of immigrants rights. "I'm not surpirsed by their findings." said Harry Pachon, president of the Claremont-bsed Tomas Rivera Policy Institute. "We're a research institute, and they're an advocay group." Pachon noted that a March report by his own organizatin drew the opposite conclusion. It found that large numbers of Latino immigrants in Southern California, the vast majority of whom have roots in Mexico, were making impresive gains in education attainment and economic status within a decate of arraiving in the United States. "Instead of trashing Mexican immigrants and their contributions to this country, they should be praising their hard work." said Frank Sharry, director of the National Immigranation Forum, a Washington based immigrant rights group. The report stated that lack of skills and schooling translated into a lifetime of low-paying employment and poverty for many Mexican immigrants. While stressing that Mexican workers posed no threat to middle and upper class Americans, it argued that the immigrants are unfairly completing for entry level jobs with poorer natives, including people being forced off welfare rolls by reform programs. http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] INMATE WORKS LEGAL SYSTEM FROM BEHIND BARS
-Caveat Lector- INMATE WORKS LEGAL SYSTEM FROM BEHIND BARS (West Palm Beach, FL) - The web of fakery and greed spun by con- victed jewel dealer Jack Hasson for more than a decade continues to snare victims and clog up multiple court systems, while he sits in a South Carolina prison, defies a federal judge's orders and dabbles in French law. Hasson, serving 40 years for fraud and money laundering, spends his time in the federal penitentiary at Edgefield, S.C., filing "common law" court papers concocted with the aid of fellow in- mates. The documents include billion-dollar "judgments" against people Hasson perceives as enemies and attempt to persuade a French court not to release $20 million in laundered money to the U.S. government. Meanwhile, federal prosecutors have charged Irene Lois Robert- son, Hasson's longtime bookkeeper at his Palm Beach Gardens and North Palm Beach stores, with concealing his money-laundering, a felony punishable by up to three years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Robertson, 61, pleaded not guilty at her June 29 arraign- ment and is out on $100,000 bond. Robertson and her husband, Pascal, also have agreed to repay $825,000 that Hasson gave her when he shut down his Palm Beach Gardens store in 1998. The money will go to Hasson's main fraud victim, retired businessman Aben Johnson of North Palm Beach, who paid Hasson more than $80 million for jewels later appraised at $6 million. The Robertsons had bought a home and three other pieces of property in Port St. Lucie with part of the money. A federal judge has ordered Hasson's former store manager, James Speiser, back to court to face a charge of violating probation. Speiser, who said he replaced real jewels with fakes and was paid $1.7 million to lie for Hasson, testified against him and got an 18-month sentence, plus three years' probation. Like Has- son, he's required to make restitution to the victims, and his probation officer says he didn't disclose the sale of a 1960 Corvette for $40,500. Former estate lawyer Scott Colton of North Palm Beach, serving three years for helping Hasson launder $26 million, now says he lied to his own attorneys about the scheme as well as to Has- son's other lawyers, the FBI and a federal grand jury. http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Ashcroft Terrified by Terrorism
-Caveat Lector- Ashcroft Terrified by Terrorism By Declan McCullagh Wired.com July 12, 2001 WASHINGTON -- It's been just one month since Timothy McVeigh was executed for the Oklahoma City bombing, and U.S. officials are trying to prevent similar disasters. At a government summit on Wednesday, Attorney General John Ashcroft said that thwarting terrorist attacks was his "number-one priority" and that the Feds were stepping up efforts to guard against chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats. Ashcroft said the Justice Department was already planning for 2003 an exercise called "TOPOFF2" -- which stands for "top officials" -- involving simulated attacks carried out with no notice against American cities. The first TOPOFF took place in May 2000 with a mock biological attack on Denver and a fake nuclear bomb near Washington, D.C. The attorney general also predicted noose-tight security during the 2002 Winter Olympics, which will be held in Salt Lake City. "We are doing everything we can to ensure that people from all over the world can come to the Games, bring their families, enjoy the excitement of world-class athletic competition, and feel safe and secure," Ashcroft said. During the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, federal agents falsely accused security guard Richard Jewell of being responsible for planting a small bomb that killed two people. Some participants at Wednesday's event, organized by the National Governors Association and the National Emergency Management Association, said the government must not neglect attacks carried out through the Internet. "After you engage someone, you are taught to step back and look for the next threat," said Mark Noel, a researcher at Dartmouth College's Institute for Security Technology Studies. "In the case of terrorism, that could be an attack on the Internet." "Most people who are deeply involved in this field recognize the force multiplier effect the attack on communications infrastructure would have," Noel said. The only problem: Malicious hacker attacks on websites may just be pranks, not terrorism. And the U.S. military, for instance, has been known to exaggerate statistics of alleged intrusion attempts. On Tuesday, the first day of the two-day summit, Secretary of Health and Human Services Tommy Thompson went even further than Ashcroft. "Someday we're more than likely going to be hit by some sort of bioterrorism in America," Thompson said. He also said that Scott Lillibridge, the former director of bioterrorism preparedness and response at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, had been appointed to coordinate national response plans. All that sounds a trifle threatening to state officials who fret that newly energized efforts by the Feds will trample on state turf. "All attacks start locally, and there is a great sensitivity among (local officials) for an overbearing federal government presence," said Lt. General James Clapper, vice chairman of a government-funded terrorism commission. Ashcroft stressed that he was a former governor of Missouri and pledged to compromise: "Justice Department counterterrorism efforts require close coordination not only with other federal agencies but also with state and local agencies." And what better way to win their allegiance than with some federal dollars? Ashcroft said that the Justice Department "has committed funding to the governors to establish a policy academy for state officials." Earlier this week, the House Government Reform Committee held a hearing on the biological weapons convention. In the Bush administration, Vice President Cheney, who is responsible for coordinating antiterrorism efforts, is preparing a report to be complete by October. One place that's seen an attack firsthand is Oklahoma City, where a nonprofit group says it's worried about the communications system. "If someone incapacitates the 911 system during a terrorism attack, the results would be chaos," said Gen. Dennis Reimer, director of the Oklahoma City National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism.

[CTRL] A spy satellite's rise ... and faked fall
-Caveat Lector- A spy satellite's rise ... and faked fall Amateurs could see what Russia missed, historian says This drawing, included in a patent application, shows how an inflatable space shield could help a satellite evade detection. Observers believe the satellite known as Misty may have used such a shield. Click here to see the patent application. By Robert Windrem NBC NEWS PRODUCER July 12 - For more than a decade, the United States has had at least one and possibly more stealth spy satellites capable of peering down at targets without fear of detection, according to a new book by an intelligence historian. The author, Jeffrey T. Richelson, says that while the Soviet space tracking network failed to detect the satellite, it did not evade a small cadre of civilian space trackers. CODE-NAMED "MISTY," the CIA-designed satellite was first launched in 1990, before the Persian Gulf War, and may have been replenished since. "The Wizards of Langley," a history of the CIA's top-secret Directorate of Science and Technology, notes that the United States may have tried to hide the successful first launch of Misty by making it seem that the satellite had exploded before reaching its final orbit. Richelson says the ruse fooled the American media - and, more importantly, the Soviet Union. 10 YEARS OF RESEARCH The satellite was developed by the CIA directorate's "tool shop," its Office of Development and Engineering, and launched in March 1990, after nearly 10 years of research, says Richelson. In the early 1980s, the office had determined that Misty could be successful. "It argued that Soviet radars and cameras were not very capable and were unlikely to track the satellite," Richelson says. That part of the equation turned out to be accurate. The space shuttle Atlantis carries the spy satellite known as Misty into space in March 1990 at the start of a classified Pentagon mission. "When it was first launched from the space shuttle Atlantis on March 1, 1990, it was believed to be the first advanced KH-11 spacecraft," he says, referring to the top-of-the-line American spy satellite. "Within weeks, both U.S. and Soviet space sources reported it had malfunctioned and would make a 'fiery re-entry in the next 30 days.' Both assessments were wrong." Richelson reports that the only people who successfully kept track of the flight were civilian space observers in England and Canada who watched a series of maneuvers performed by the satellite, including the "explosion" that Richelson believes "may have been a tactic to deceive those monitoring the satellite." One of the observers who spoke to Richelson, Ted Molczan of Toronto, told NBC News that the supposed explosion took place on March 7, 1990, six days after launch, and was first reported by the Soviet press. "Russia reported it had detected debris," Molczan recalled, "and NORAD identified six pieces." The plan for stealthiness may have involved some clever trickery by the CIA. "The satellite was exceedingly bright, brighter than the KH-11, and kept in a low orbit, only 250 kilometers (150 miles) above the earth, so it was easily visible," Molczan said. "Then there was nothing after the 'explosion.' They apparently needed the 'explosion' to be long enough so they could deploy the stealth masking device." U.S. officials may have also used disinformation to enhance the deception, often discussing the need to develop stealthy satellites, never letting on that such satellites not only had been developed but launched as well. THE RETURN OF MISTY The observers, however, spotted the satellite again in November 1990 after it made a series of maneuvers apparently intended to put it in better position to monitor the Persian Gulf, where U.S. and allied forces were preparing to drive Saddam Hussein's troops out of Kuwait. Intelligence historian Jeffrey Richelson's latest book focuses on four decades of innovation and inside secrets at the CIA's Directorate of Science and Technology. Then, last year, a civilian space observer, examining data from NORAD's unclassified databases, determined that the satellite was still operating at least as late as 1995 in a 451-by-461-mile orbit, higher than the KH-11 satellite. There were other leaks that he and the observers took advantage of, says Richelson. Less than two weeks after Misty's launch, "to the anger of many in the National Reconnaissance Office, a patent application was filed, apparently by the Strategic Defense Initiative office, for a 'Satellite Signature Suppression Shield,'" he reports in his book. The patent for "an inflatable shield for suppressing the characteristic radiation signature of a satellite" was eventually granted in 1994. "The shield is conical-shaped and made from a thin synthetic polymer film material coated with a radiation reflecting material, such as gold or aluminum," the p

Minesweepers and other ships are also headed to the port city, and a missile defence system was installed earlier this week, the ministry said. The government plans to use 2,700 army, navy and air force troops during the summit, but none will be deployed against demonstrators, according to the Defence Ministry. They will be used for air and sea patrols, and some surveillance work. Crowd control is being left to between 12,000 and 16,000 police officers, who will be armed with tear gas, water cannon and batons. Anti-globalization protesters are expected in the thousands at the July 20-22 summit in the Italian port city. The G-8 will be attended by leaders of Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the United States. Prime Minister Jean Chretien will represent Canada. Protests have evolved into a fixture of international meetings since riots rocked the 1999 World Trade Organization conference in Seattle and the 2000 meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank in the Czech Republic. The anti-missile system set up as a precaution is a short-range, anti-aircraft battery similar to those deployed at several of the country's airports, Col. Paolo Bressan said. Dubbed the SPADA, the land-based system consists of missiles capable with a range of more than 14 kilometres and an altitude of 1,500 metres, Bressan said. Citing security reasons, Bressan refused to say how many missiles the system contained. With many leaders, aides and journalists being lodged on ships or in hotels near the port, and with the conference sites also near the sea, water security is considered crucial. Navy personnel, including divers, will be involved in inspecting ship hulls for mines as well as sea patrols. A torpedo destroyer and a minesweeper are part of the fleet. Air force planes will survey the city from the skies, and the army is supplying paratroopers and bomb disposal experts. http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

AUDREY'S MISSILES A weekly newsletter dedicated to the peaceful reform of the United States government. NAFTA ILLEGAL? July 6, 2001, Washington, D.C. - The United Steelworkers of America (USWA) announced today that it has filed a Certiorari petition with the U.S. Supreme Court, challenging the constitutionality of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). If the Supreme Court does not chicken out and refuse to hear the case or find some other pretext to dodge the issue, we may expect a ruling from that body sometime next Fall. A century ago, Finley Peter Dunne had his favorite Irish bartender, Mr. Dooley, say this about the court: "no matther whether th' constitution follows th' flag or not, th' supreme coort follows th' iliction returns." As was true in the imperialist days of Teddy Roosevelt, the Supreme Court just might be influenced by a higher court - the Court of Public Opinion. The public needs to use the immense power that it has. The outcome of the case the steelworkers have filed is by no means certain. Even though NAFTA is plainly a treaty, the government has argued that it is commercial in nature and thus falls within the government's powers to regulate under the commerce clause of the Constitution. Thus, the government contends that the simple majority used to pass NAFTA was constitutional and the treaty should stand as it is. The steel workers challenge on the basis that NAFTA is a treaty and required a two thirds vote of the Senate to ratify. The Supreme Court, sometimes called the "Sup Cut" by the irreverent, is getting another red hot potato in its lap. Will they find a way to justify an agreement that has caused such havoc and misery on both sides of our border with Mexico? NAFTA isn't about free trade, and it never was. NAFTA was about opening the Mexican border to the drug traffic and using the cheap labor in Mexico to exploit the rich consumer market in this country. It was supposed to be a "win-win" situation, but wages in Mexico have fallen and working conditions have worsened in both countries. The loss of jobs has threatened our consumer driven market, and there is concern that the current recession will become a full fledged depression. The volume of traffic has made it incredibly easy for criminals to smuggle both people and drugs. The news media has concentrated on the poor Mexicans who "migrate" in and out of this country, but U.S. citizens know that there are millions of them who have stayed, and millions more who would like to immigrate and remain in this country. The flood of immigrants from Mexico and many other countries and consequent building of homes, highways, and service structures has damaged our watershed (floods) and overwhelmed our infrastructure (blackouts). What is needed now is massive peaceful demonstrations right at the heart of the problem: the U.S. Mexican border. Have some vacation time coming?

[CTRL] Fwd: Argentine Debt Creates Fallout That Is Wide
http://www.nytimes.com/2001/07/12/business/worldbusiness/12LATI.html July 12, 2001 Argentine Debt Creates Fallout That Is Wide By JONATHAN FUERBRINGER The fallout from the financial crisis in Argentina was felt outside Latin America yesterday as the dollar fell and the stocks of some American and Spanish banks with exposure there dropped. The Brazilian real also fell to its lowest level since it began trading freely in 1999, and some Latin American stock markets declined. "I would just say it is a function of contagion," said David Gilmore, a partner at Foreign Exchange Analytics in Essex, Conn. "Argentina is sending a shiver through investors' mindset." The fear among investors is that Argentina will actually default on its $130 billion of foreign debt or force investors into a restructuring that would reduce what Argentina owes. Argentina had to pay 14 percent interest rates to sell $828 million in three-month bills on Tuesday. And many analysts doubt that the government will be able to cut spending enough to offset the fall in tax revenues, after three years of recession, and leave enough to meet foreign debt payments. Domingo Cavallo, the economic minister of Argentina, said on Tuesday night that Argentina could not borrow any more and had to reduce its federal government and provincial deficits by $3 billion. Many analysts doubt that such cuts are possible given Argentina's complex politics and the approach of elections in October. "A lot of negative expectations are now in the air," said Armínio Fraga, the president of the central bank of Brazil, which has been hit the hardest by the fallout from Argentina. "We will see what the future brings." Referring to Argentina, he said, "They themselves have not given up. I understand it is not easy." Mr. Fraga was in New York to meet with investors in an effort to convince them that Brazil's financial problems are only temporary. In trading in New York, the dollar fell as the euro rose to 85.91 cents, up from 85.70 cents on Tuesday. The euro rose as high as 86.88 cents during the day. Against the Japanese yen, the dollar fell to 124.36, down from 125.37 yen on Tuesday. While it may seem odd for the dollar to fall when investors are nervous, it can happen. First, the dollar has been incredibly strong this year, especially given the slowdown in economic growth in the United States and the six cuts in short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve. Secondly, a lot of this strength has come from foreigners, Europeans and Japanese, betting that both the euro and the yen would continue to decline against the dollar. But these bets on the dollar, Mr. Gilmore said, leave these investors in risky positions from their point of view. So when there is uncertainty in the outlook, reducing their risk a little means selling the dollar to buy back euros or yen. The Merval stock index in Argentina fell 2.2 percent after a late day rally reduced its loss for the day. It was down 6 percent Tuesday. The Bolsa index in Mexico dropped 2.2 percent. The Bovespa stock index in Brazil rallied enough to turn an early loss of 1.5 percent into a 1.8 percent gain. The Brazilian real plunged to 2.553 to the dollar, a new low. The Mexican and Chilean pesos also declined. Besides affecting the dollar, the fallout from Argentina is also reaching American banks that have exposure there and in other emerging markets. In just over two weeks the political and financial crisis in Argentina has worsened enough to send interest rates on three-month bills up to 14 percent from 9.1 percent. In that same two week period, two of the American banks that have big exposure there, Citibank and J. P. Morgan Chase & Company, have seen their stocks drop. Shares of Citibank's parent, Citigroup (news/quote), dropped 8.7 percent, and fell 3.1 percent yesterday, to $47.60. J. P. Morgan Chase is off 5.9 percent for the two weeks. The stock rose slightly yesterday, to $42.05.
[CTRL] Fwd: Markets Disapprove of Argentina's Plan to Rescue Economy
http://www.nytimes.com/2001/07/13/international/americas/13ARGE.html?todaysh eadlines July 13, 2001 Markets Disapprove of Argentina's Plan to Rescue Economy By CLIFFORD KRAUSS Argentine Debt Creates Fallout That Is Wide (July 12, 2001) BUENOS AIRES, July 12 Political leaders and investors turned a disapproving cold shoulder today to a new round of austerity measures offered by the government, sending local financial markets plummeting and a chill through some markets abroad. It was the second jolt in the markets this week for Argentina, which has been struggling to contain an economic and banking crisis for several months. On Tuesday, interest rates spurted as the government auctioned more than $800 million in short-term bonds. Treasury bill yields soared to 14 percent, the highest rate in five years. Today, overnight bank rates were quoted as high as 150 percent, as investors signaled that they considered Argentina's finances increasingly risky. Late Wednesday, Economy Minister Domingo Cavallo, who engineered the country out of a economic morass a decade ago, announced major cuts in public salaries and pensions and an increase in taxes intended to eliminate a projected $1.5 billion budget deficit in the second half of the year. Although the measures would surely be painful, they were proposed to respond to growing fears internationally that Argentina was heading toward bankruptcy and a devaluation of its currency. But the announcement sparked angry threats from labor leaders and chafing within the already fractious government. Instead of firming the weakening values of Argentine bonds and stocks, the move only gave economists and investors more evidence that the government is careering without clear direction month to month from one divergent economic approach to another. The Merval stock index here closed down 8.2 percent after having rebounded from a 13 percent decline. It has fallen 24 percent in two weeks. The fallout from Argentina has been felt the most in neighboring Brazil, South America's largest economy and Argentina's largest trading partner. Its currency fell to a low today against the dollar. The currencies of Mexico and Chile also fell, as did the leading index on the Mexican stock market. The effects of Argentina's troubles have not been as severe as past emerging market crises like those in 1997 and 1998. But in recent days, stock markets as far away as South Africa, Taiwan and Turkey have been shaken by Argentina's debt troubles. Today, though some emerging-market currencies strengthened. In the United States, stock prices rose, owing mostly to a broad rally after a bullish forecast by Microsoft. Treasury prices also rose, and some analysts attributed that to investors' leaving emerging market debt like Argentine treasury bonds for the safety of United States securities. The mounting political opposition to the Argentine program appeared intended to forestall greater austerity measures like cuts in health care, education and Social Security spending. But it is exactly such cuts that many economists say will be needed for the government to continue to pay interest payments on the debt. The uncertainty of whether the government is strong enough to take such measures has had the effect of raising interest rates, making debt payments more expensive. In recent weeks, a consensus has emerged among Wall Street analysts that a default or a debt restructuring was probably likely. An outright currency devaluation, considered less likely, would hurt living standards significantly. Neither the United States nor the International Monetary Fund foresee intervening to help Argentina. Argentina has suffered through a three-year recession, with unemployment exceeding 16 percent and a growing number of businesses entering bankruptcy. In recent weeks, the crisis has been compounded by rapidly rising interest rates rooted in investor doubts that the central government and provinces can fulfill their payment obligations on a combined debt of $150 billion. Those doubts have been stoked by the growing perception that President Fernando de la Rúa is unable to inspire public confidence or unite his diverse ruling coalition around a program to manage government finances or growing social unrest. Mr. Cavallo announced on Wednesday cuts of 8 to 10 percent in wages for more than a quarter of a million federal employees and equivalent cuts in pension benefits for retired government workers. He also proposed an increase in a financial transactions tax and a new court system to crack down on major tax evaders. But he stopped short of announcing cuts in services or layoffs of government workers. "We have to spend only what we have," Mr. de la Rúa said. "The public sector will not borrow money at exorbitant rates," Mr. Cavallo said. "But we will pay the debt. We have money to do so." He also vowed to keep the value of the Argentine peso tied to the dollar. Mr. Cavallo's announcement on Wed

UNLIKELY BEDFELLOWS The ACLU and Rep. Dick Armey, R. Texas, are teaming up to oppose video face scanning. Both the conservative Texan and the liberal lobby group consider the video facial scan system an invasion of privacy. In 2001, Visonics Corp. teamed with 36 Tampa police video cameras to scan faces in crowds against a database of known criminals. The software system managed to identify 19 wanted criminals during this year's Super Bowl. The Florida police, however, were not able to catch any of the known suspects. VIDEO RACISM Virginia Beach law enforcement officials announced they are seeking funds for a video camera face ID system similar to the one deployed by Tampa police. However, several members of the local minority community voiced deep concerns over "video racial profiling" by over-zealous police forces. Both the Virginia Beach Police and the Virginia State Police came under fire from minority groups after the poor handling of summer riots at the sea-side resort.

[CTRL] Fwd: The National Enquirer: Paula Poundstone Secretly Battling Booze
Quote by Paula Poundstone in Interview With Las Vegas SUN (1996) "Sun: What's the age range of the foster children you take care of? PP: The majority are newborn. I'm especially good with them before they can talk. I figure as soon as they can talk, I'm screwed." Interesting item here re Paula Poundstone but I could not help thinking of her little friend Rosie O'Donnell - for Rosie had police called to her house, a child screaming in the night caused a knock at the door - and a voice said "I am Rosie O'Donnell and I am a Foster Mother".. Now her little two year old had her teeth knocked out in front and an injury to her nose - but this is not the child taken away from her.Rosie took care of these kids herself but omitted the fact, her lesbian lover lived in the home. Now Paula took off to a Rehab Center and the police had to "vault" a wall to get to her; for she had gotten drunk, a self admitted alcoholic and no doubt her "latent" lesbian and/or pedophile maybe characterists were causing her to lose control - this dear sweet - oh these wonderful mother images.. Think one of Paula's kids learned to talk before she could train or unload it? Well Paula, now you got screwed by the "screws". Now of course the records are all sealed - Paula's attorney in on TV shows now explaining how drink caused the crime to which this lesbian or whatever she is, was charged - one of several crimes? Now without a doubt Paula and Rosie who both worked together and are involved in other matters, these two lesbians are government examples of how life can be with two mommies, or maybe two daddies. how sweet - next thing you know Barney Frank will make a child into his image? Have read Paula Poundstone and her remarks about checking out sodomy laws before going into a state, and boycotting states with sodomy laws (ie. Georgia was example) and I wondered why a "mother" would want her "kids" to be around - well most people wanat to protect their children - right? So now Paula is "secretly" battling booze? Then what the hell is this secret doing in the National Equirer ??? Tell me - who talked, Paula? Saba PAULA POUNDSTONE SECRETLY BATTLING BOOZE Cops arrested her in rehab COMEDIAN Paula Poundstone is battling alcoholism and undergoing rehab. That's the surprising story behind her shocking arrest for child molestation, insiders reveal. "Paula's problem is alcohol," says a friend. (Now is Paula's problem alcohol or is it lesbianism and what was this lewd act she performed on a child resulting in police jumping a wall to get at her - Saba Note] "That's what led to these child molestation charges against her. "She's now in rehab and, in fact, was already in rehab when she was arrested. She realized she was drinking too much and it was affecting the way; she looked after the children. "Paula has two nannies and had made arrangements for the children to be looked after while she was in rehab even before she knew of the allegations against her. Then she was informed by Family Services of the charges. "The children were taken away from her before she went into treatment, then police went to the rehab center and arrested her." Police vaulted over a wall at the rehab center to arrest her, according to reports. The friend added: "Paula's only concern is the good of the children. She's determined to beat her drinking problem so she can get back with her kids." The 41-year-old funnylady, who has three adoptive and two foster children, was arrested on June 27 and charged with three counts of committing a lewd act on a girl under age 14 and endangering two other girls and two boys. [Was she training her to be a lesbian??? Saba Note] She has pleaded not guilty and could face a maximum of 13 years and four months in prison if convicted. [Saba Note: Tell me, what about her victims - for surely one of them was smart enough to call he police when this drunken chld molester ran to the safety of a Rehab with a High Wall for refuge?] During an appearance on ABC's "Good Morning America," Poundstone's attorney, Steven Cron, insisted she was innocent of the charges against her. "Her involvement with alcohol was the basis for the allegations," said Cron. "Nevertheless, Paula is adamant, and I am firmly of the belief that she's not guilty of these charges." And he revealed that although she is forbidden to have contact with two of the children, she is allowed monitored visits with the other three. "Paula is in a rehabilitation program right now and she gets regular visits with her children," said Cron. "They are monitored, but she's able to spend time with them.

[CTRL] Fwd: German satanic couple held after ritual murder
From: Alex Constantine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thursday, July 12, 2001 5:44 PM Subject:German satanic couple held after ritual murder German satanic couple held after ritual murder Kate Connolly in Berlin Friday July 13, 2001 The Guardian A devil-worshipping newly married German couple were arrested yesterday after allegedly fleeing the scene of a suspected satanic killing. The body of a 33-year-old car-parts dealer identified as Frank H was found on Monday in the couple's flat in the western town of Witten, with 66 machete and hammer wounds. "The victim was no longer recognisable," a police officer said. "We had to carry out DNA analysis to discover his identity." The body was lying next to a black oak coffin, models of human skulls, upturned crosses and Nazi SS rune stones. The police also found a hit list naming 15 of the couple's acquaintances who, it is alleged, they were planning to kill ritualistically. The pair, named as Manuela B, 22, and Daniel R, 25, were found near Jena, eastern Germany, yesterday morning: it is said they on their way to honeymoon at Count Dracula's castle in Transylvania, central Romania. It was reported that the victim, a colleague of Daniel R, was invited to a party at the couple's flat. An investigator said: "The walls were covered in black cloths, and there was a coffin in the living room." The slogan "When Satan Lives" was scrawled on the window. The man is thought to have died last Friday, July 6, a date supposedly chosen for the satanic symbolism of number six. The shaven-headed, body-pierced Daniel and his pink-haired, leather-clad bride Manuela were said to have met through an occult chat-line earlier this year, and had their first date at an old cemetery in Recklinghausen. They chose the symbolic date of June 6 (sixth of the sixth) for their register-office wedding and told the wedding photographer that their honeymoon destination was Dracula's castle. Manuela's parents told the newspaper Bild that her flirtation with satanism began when she was 13, and that her relationships took on increasingly disturbing characteristics. An early boyfriend told Bild that she had bitten him in the neck, screaming "I want your blood!" Another ex-boyfriend said: "She told me straight away that she was a satanist. We hit each other during sex, and wore leather dog collars with studs." Daniel's parents said his contact with the occult scene became intense around the time of his final school exams, and became really serious after he met Manuela. Friends said the pair practised sado-masochistic sex, repeated extreme rightwing slogans, and had an obsession with blood. On the mailbox of Daniel's mobile phone was the lyric: "I drink your blood, I eat your skin." The victim's parents said their son had no links with the occult scene. "He was a loving, faithful, and sensitive boy." He had recently been left by a girlfriend and was considering becoming a monk, they added. On Saturday the couple, dubbed the "satanic Bonnie and Clyde", drove to Hanover and bought new tyres for their Opel Vectra, which they were reported to have covered with five-pointed stars, another satanic symbol. They were spotted on Sunday filling up with petrol in Sonderhausen, in the eastern state of Thüringen. The area has held a strong attraction for satanists since 1993, when 17-year-old Hendrik Möbus, the leader of a satanist group, murdered a fellow pupil. When they were arrested yesterday and they had wiped off the occult symbols and fitted a stolen number plate. The incident has highlighted the strong link between satanism and rightwing extremism in Germany, both of which glorify power. The couple's flat contained various pieces of Nazi memorabilia. Möbus latched onto the radical right after his release from prison in 1998 after serving five years of an eight-year term. He became a popular figure on the far-right scene following the success of his rock band.

Peter Paul, who now resides in Brazil, donated $2 million in "in kind" campaign contributions to finance the Hollywood Tribute to Bill Clinton, which netted $1.5 million for Hillary Clinton's Senate campaign. ABC's "20/20" will reveal hard evidence that Mrs. Clinton did not report these contributions as she was required to do under law to the Federal Election Commission. In addition, former Democratic National Committee Chairman Ed Rendell (now a candidate for governor of Pennsylvania) will be implicated in the Pardongate scandal, along with other high-level Democratic Party officials. Peter Paul has already filed a civil complaint in the Superior Court of Los Angeles against the Clintons and others to recoup his $2 million in campaign contributions. Hollywood stars such as Barbra Streisand, Cher, Brad Pitt and John Travolta will be material witnesses in the case since they have knowledge of Peter Paul's involvement in the Hollywood Tribute for Bill Clinton. Monday, prior to Judicial Watch's press conference at 12:00 noon ED at the National Press Club, Peter Paul will also file a complaint with the Federal Election Commission against Hillary Clinton and her campaign. The ABC "20/20" piece has been in the works for over six weeks, and Brian Ross and his staff traveled to Brazil to interview Peter Paul, as well as conducted other interviews of actors in this scandal. ABC News was able to verify Peter Paul's story. "Typically, Peter Paul, as the 'givee,' has been indicted by the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, while no action has been taken by federal authorities in New York against the Clintons. ABC's '20/20' piece should change this equation, once the hard evidence that the Clintons have committed egregious criminal acts becomes known to the American people," stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman. === Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer*<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends === http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Saolon: ABC's messy role in Condit affair
-Caveat Lector- [What the heck is ABC News doing by going to Condit rather than the police? And what gives ABC the right to present a timeline to the public that ABC News has doctored?] http://www.salon.com/politics/feature/2001/07/13/abc/index.html ABC's messy role in Condit affair The network now says one of its reporters -- the subject of tabloid rumors -- claims she never met with Condit the day he claims they did; the day Chandra Levy most likely disappeared. By Joshua Micah Marshall July 13, 2001 | WASHINGTON -- As the Gary Condit-Chandra Levy affair burst into the full flower of scandal at the end of June, Condit's office provided Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police with a timeline of Condit's activities on the crucial days surrounding Levy's disappearance. Learning of the existence of the timeline, ABC News subsequently requested a copy, and received one from a source in Rep. Condit's office. What soon became apparent to reporters and producers at ABC News, though, was that there were two critical portions of the timeline that simply did not seem true. And the network struggled with this information for nearly three weeks before fully detailing the nature of the discrepancies during the Wednesday edition of "Nightline." One of ABC's own off-air reporters had met with Condit about an unrelated matter (the California energy crisis) on the day after Levy's disappearance, May 2. But the timeline provided to ABC News appeared to say that this meeting had occurred on May 1 -- the very day Levy went missing. Further complicating the matter for ABC were ambiguities surrounding Condit's relationship with the ABC reporter in question. The New York Post has reported (and Fox News trumpeted) that Condit had an affair with an ABC producer and, based on information in the Post, and according to sources within the network, it's clear that this is the same woman who had met with Condit on May 2. The romantic link, however, is firmly and unequivocally denied by the network. "This reporter," an ABC News executive told Salon on Thursday, "has had a professional relationship with Congressman Condit for years, nothing more than that, period." So the story plays out like this: According to ABC sources, the ABC News off-air reporter met with Rep. Condit at the Tryst restaurant (that's no joke) on May 2, between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m., to discuss the California energy crisis. The reporter eventually circulated an e-mail to this effect within ABC's Washington Bureau long before the significance of the meeting became known. Yet the timeline provided by the Condit camp made no mention of this meeting, even though it did cover the day in question. The Condit timeline did, however, mention another meeting at the same location with an unnamed reporter -- but with one critical difference. Rather than taking place on the afternoon of May 2, the timeline had this meeting taking place between 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on May 1. Police place Chandra's last known whereabouts in her apartment early on May 1, in part because of an e-mail she apparently sent from her computer that morning. Producers and reporters at ABC News could not at first be certain that the purported May 1 meeting was not with some other reporter from another news organization (no names were supplied in the timeline). But they were quite certain that they knew where the congressman was the following afternoon, and that his timeline did not reflect his whereabouts. "We had no way of knowing," the same ABC News executive told Salon on Thursday, "whether this was a sin of omission or commission, or whether there were two different meetings." Based on the apparent discrepancy, however, ABC immediately contacted both the congressman's office and his legal team. "We went back to his attorney Abbe Lowell's office," said the same ABC News executive. "We said, 'We know there was a meeting with an ABC news reporter but we don't see it on [the timeline].' They told us 'this was just a draft, just a draft of a timeline which is neither complete nor completely accurate.' We asked, 'Who was the meeting with on Tuesday and why isn't there [any mention of a meeting] on Wednesday?' They said they'd get back to us. But we have never gotten an official response." According to another print reporter covering the case, Condit's chief of staff Mike Lynch, later refused to distribute copies of the timeline to other news organizations, telling the reporter that the timeline contained "mistakes" and that he had been chastised by members of Condit's legal team for releasing the timeline to ABC News. This back-and-forth with the Condit camp placed ABC News producers in an awkward position. In a strictly factual sense, a source in the congressman's office had provided them with an alibi for his whereabouts on the day of Chandra Levy's disappearance, which they first suspected and then later knew to be false. However, according to the same ABC News executive, they had no way of kn
[CTRL] MB: Condit denies affair with teen
-Caveat Lector- [At this point, I really wonder why this freak even bothers! --MS] http://www.modbee.com/metro/story/0,1113,281907,00.html Modesto Bee July 13, 2001 Condit denies affair with teen By JEFF JARDINE Rep. Gary Condit's chief of staff said Thursday that the congressman from Ceres denies having had an affair with -- or even knowing -- the daughter of a Modesto minister. O.C. Thomas told the FBI, The Bee and The Washington Post that his daughter Jennifer had a relationship with Condit that began when she was 18 or 19 years old and lasted until she was about 21. Mike Lynch, Condit's chief of staff, said repeatedly during an interview with The Bee that Condit told him there was no such relationship. "He said this is just not true," Lynch said. "We've asked him about The Post story, and he said it's just not true." Lynch also noted a letter purportedly written by Jennifer Thomas saying she had never met "the congressman who's involved in all this." While denying the alleged relationship between Condit and Thomas, Lynch declined to confirm or deny reported affairs with missing intern Chandra Levy and flight attendant Anne Marie Smith. Addressing criticism over Condit's public silence, Lynch said the congressman has indicated that he will "talk about this case in detail once it is appropriate in terms of the investigation." Lynch also told The Bee that Condit intends to run for re-election in 2002. "We decided some time ago he would run," Lynch said. "There's no change in those plans." That decision, he said, was made before the disappearance of Levy. She was last seen April 30 in Washington, D.C., a week after completing an internship at the Bureau of Prisons. Condit, 53, reportedly admitted to investigators in Washington, D.C., that he and Levy, 24, were romantically involved. Police have said he is not a suspect in her disappearance, which the department is investigating as a missing person case. Thomas' father reported that his daughter, now 26, has fled the area in fear. He said he encouraged her to come forward with information about the alleged affair because he believed it was her best source of protection. The father, the longtime gardener for Levy's parents, Robert and Susan Levy of Modesto, said he believes the affair happened sometime between 1993 and 1996. Lynch complained that news reports on the alleged affair are based on hearsay from the father, with no confirmation from Jennifer Thomas. "What link is there to Gary Condit?" he asked, claiming that the story fell below The Bee's usual journalistic standards. Condit's former driver, Vince Flammini of Ceres, echoed Lynch's assertions, saying Thursday that he had never heard of Jennifer Thomas. "That's a bull story," Flammini said. "I worked for him all through that time. I was his driver. I've never seen that girl in my life." Flammini also disputed that Condit took Thomas to his home in Ceres, as her father contends. "Gary would never do that," said Flammini, who earlier confirmed Condit's relationship with Smith, the flight attendant. "There's no way I ever took girls to Gary's house. I don't know how it could have gotten by me." O.C. Thomas could not be reached for comment Thursday. But others affiliated with his church, the Prayer Mission Church of God in Christ in Modesto, said they do not believe he would fabricate a story such as the one he has told regarding his daughter and Condit. "I just can't see him doing that," said Ester Ard, wife of the church's pastor. "He's a very caring person. There's nothing he won't do for a person." Thomas was described as compassionate, honest and upstanding. He served as a pastor at another church until heart trouble forced him to retire. Thomas does volunteer maintenance at Prayer Mission Church. Pamela Niblett, who occasionally attends the church, described Thomas and his wife as giving. "They're good people," said Niblett, 34, of Modesto. Thomas' daughter does not attend the church, Ard said. Visitors to the Thomas family's apartment in Ceres were greeted by a handwritten note on the door. It began, "My name is Jennifer Thomas." The letter stated that neither she nor her father would consent to interviews, she never knew the Levys or Chandra, and that she never met "that congressman who's involved in all this." A neighbor in the complex said Jennifer Thomas has a twin sister named Janet. The neighbor, Betty Hoffman, said media who went to the apartment Wednesday night probably spoke with Janet and not Jennifer, who is believed to still be out of the area. In his interview with The Bee, Lynch addressed other issues that have followed Condit since Levy disappeared: He discounted reports from various media suggesting that Condit staff members have become demoralized because of the constant media frenzy involving their boss. "No one has talked to me about leaving or quitting," he said. "It's been more of a case of pulling together and helping each other

Will www.nifty.org and www.assgm.com survive? And in a very odd and cleverly worded op-ed piece... http://www.nypost.com/postopinion/opedcolumnists/34569.htm The New York Post has suggested that locking up Mr. Dalton was wrong because he didn't show his story to anyone, while observing in passing that such a sentence would have been just fine if Mr. Dalton had "posted his story on the Net", or "shown it to a friend." Goodness, we can't have that, can we?

Last month, prosecutor Gail Archer told the court that Keogh should be jailed for the pornographic stories, which were found on his home computer by his stepdaughter's boyfriend. She said the stories, which detailed gang rape, bestiality and incest, had titles such as Bonnie Goes Camping, The Little Homewrecker and Prince and His Princess. "All of the stories are quite detailed, quite graphic and incredibly unpleasant," she said. Ms Archer said Keogh admitted to police he owned the stories but said he did not know they were illegal and that they helped him cope with his past abuse. She said any downloading of child pornography encouraged the exploitation of children. ... The judge said Keogh, who until now had led a blameless life, deserved a significant fine. -- Eric Michael Cordian 0+ O:.T:.O:.

-Caveat Lector- [As I said, this Condit is really some piece of work! SUPER FREAKY! And, btw, Bill Nalty is EXTREMELY reputable, i.e., a professional Beltway journalist! --MS] - Original Message - From: "Bill Nalty" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, July 13, 2001 6:58 AM Subject: NM: Condit: Gays, Bisexuals and Murder This article was posted about 12am ET, and one hour later NewsMax decided to pull it. This URL is no longer valid. http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/7/12/225912.shtml NewsMax Friday, July 13, 2001 Condit: Gays, Bisexuals and Murder By John LeBoutillier Yesterday I spoke to "RJ" - an inside-the-Beltway source who, over the years, has never steered me wrong. RJ said, "John, do you know the true story of Gary Condit?" RJ continued then proceeeded to outline a scenario for what happened in this case:"Condit has been known inside the gay community here in DC for being a big, big user of gay male prostitutes - especially blacks from the Caribbean who ride motorcycles and love to wear black leather. "Condit lives in Adams Morgan - a terrible commute to and from the Hill - and it is a notorious neighborhood for gays and bisexuals. "Now, here is the dirty little secret behind the disappearance of Chandra Levy: Condit goes both ways. He likes to get sodomized by male prostitutes before having sex with women. The gay sex turns him on and he can then "perform" with women. "Condit had one particular Caribbean male prostitute that he frequented. When it was determined that Chandra had to go, this guy was given the assignment. He picked her up on his motorcycle, took off some where, killed her, and dumped her body. Then, on orders from Condit and with money from Condit, he headed back to Haiti or wherever he came from - far, far away from investigators and the Feds." The media has heard all of this - but has yet to report it. The other night, both Michael Issikoff of Newsweek and Tom Squitieri of USA TODAY referred to "dark aspects of this story that we can't report yet." Other media players are aware of all of this - and more: apparently Condit liked three-ways and even four-ways with himself, the male gay prostitute and two women. Some of his girlfriends obviously knew of this over the years; some participated in the three-way sex. This explains his absolute paranoia over any of the girls ever talking about their relationships with him. And it explains the fear we are now hearing about from not just the flight attendant, Anne Marie Smith, but others, too. This also explains why Abbe Lowell only wants one or two questions asked on the lie detector, such as, "Do you know what happened to Chandra?" Condit probably does not know - on purpose - what the gay male prostitute did with her - so he might very well successfully pass that question on a lie detector test. No wonder Lowell doesn't want wide-ranging questions. All of this horrible mess would soon be revealed and confirmed. As for Chandra leaving her apartment with only her keys? As RJ put it, "Perhaps the only time a woman would leave her purse behind would be to ride on the back of a motorcycle." Now, the big questions are these: 1) Is the FBI honestly investigating this absolutely perverted behavior and this scenario? 2) Do the Feds have the guts to pursue such a sick scenario? 3) Does the media - many of who already know much of this - report it - and expose this sick bisexual and gay behavior? Recently the Mainstream Media loves to portray gay victims of violent crime but often ignores gay perpetrators of violent crime. Will the media put aside their Politically Correct view of bi-sexualism and prostitution and tell the truth here? 4) Will the Feds track down this gay male black prostitute - or multiple gay prostitutes - who have had dealings with Condit? If RJ's scenario if accurate then poor Chandra - and other Condit girlfriends - have fallen into the sickest group of perverts imaginable. No wonder Condit, representing a conservative district, went bananas every time one of his girlfriends talked. Buckle your seatbelts: things are going to explode soon.

[CTRL] NYP: CONDIT 'AFFAIR' TEEN HAD BABY
-Caveat Lector- [Geeze, this just gets better every ten minutes! This guy is a real trip, huh? --MS] http://www.nypost.com/news/nationalnews/29218.htm New York Post July 13, 2001 CONDIT 'AFFAIR' TEEN HAD BABY By NILES LATHEM, STEVE DUNLEAVY, EDMUND NEWTON, and ANDY GELLER A minister's daughter gave birth to a son during the two years she allegedly had an affair with Rep. Gary Condit - whom she dumped him because of his sexual demands, The Post has learned. Jennifer Lynn Thomas, 26, had an affair with the California Democrat that began in 1993 or 1994 - when she was 18 or 19 - and ended two years later, says her father, Pentecostal minister Otis Thomas. A distraught Jennifer broke off the relationship because of the married Condit's sexual requests, sources said. On Sept. 15, 1994 - while the affair was supposedly going on - Jennifer bore a son, now 6 years old, at Doctors Medical Center in Modesto, according to a birth certificate filed in the Stanislaus County Recorder's Office in Modesto. The word "withheld" is written in the box for the father's name. Jennifer - a quiet, attractive black-haired woman who has a twin sister, Janet - met Condit, who represents the Modesto district, at a rally at California State University. Otis Thomas told the FBI about his daughter's affair following the April 30 disappearance of Chandra Levy, with whom Condit admits having an affair. Two newspapers published interviews with Otis Thomas yesterday. He could not be reached by The Post. In a note left on the door of the apartment she shares with her father, son and twin sister, Jennifer denied a relationship. "I never met that congressman who's involved in this. I don't even know how both me and my father got mixed up in this. We don't know anything," the note read. Marina Ein, a spokeswoman for Condit, did not return calls for comment. Chandra vanished after completing a six-month internship with the Bureau of Prisons in Washington. Police searched vacant buildings near her apartment yesterday but found no sign of the attractive 24-year-old brunette. The search will continue. Police plan to release computer-enhanced photos of Chandra - as a blonde, with short hair and with a ponytail - to cover the possibility that she intentionally vanished. In other developments: * Federal prosecutors have begun a preliminary investigation into whether Condit obstructed justice when he allegedly asked flight attendant Anne Marie Smith to sign an affidavit denying they had an affair. Condit denies asking Smith to lie. Smith was interviewed by federal prosecutors again yesterday. * Rep. Bob Barr (R-Ga.) became the first congressman to demand Condit's resignation, saying his colleague "obstructed an ongoing police investigation." * Chandra's parents, Robert and Susan Levy, told the Fox network's "America's Most Wanted: America Fights Back" that although some reports say their daughter may have been pregnant when she vanished, they have no evidence that's true.

[CTRL] JUDICIAL WATCH VICTORY IN CHINESE ESPIONAGE CASE
-Caveat Lector- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 7/12/2001 Press Office 202-646-5172 JUDICIAL WATCH VICTORY IN CHINESE ESPIONAGE CASE GOVERNMENT SANCTIONED FOR DELAYING TACTICS Defamation Lawsuit by Whistleblower Notra Trulock Against Wen Ho Lee Will Proceed Over Government Objections To Help Discovery, Court Orders Government to Release Report on Wen Ho Lee by August 13 Wen Ho Lee, Freeh, Reno Among Slate of Witnesses to Deposed (Washington, DC) A federal magistrate judge, overruling objections by the government, ordered discovery to proceed in Energy Department whistleblower Notra Trulock's defamation lawsuits against convicted felon Wen Ho Lee and Energy intelligence officials Robert Vrooman and Charles Washington. All three defamed Mr. Trulock, who uncovered Chinese espionage at our nation's nuclear laboratories, as targeting Lee because of his ethnicity. The government had intervened at the last minute in an attempt to delay and prevent discovery into alleged "government secrets." Judicial Watch pointed out to the court that the nearly all relevant aspects of the Wen Ho Lee espionage investigation are in the public domain and unclassified. The court, evidently agreeing, ordered discovery to proceed into "non-classified areas" and ordered the government to release portions of a report on the Wen Ho Lee investigation by August 13. It is expected that the facts and conclusions in the report will not only be helpful to the case, but be of great public interest. The magistrate judge made his ruling on Tuesday, July 10. Magistrate Judge Thomas Rawles Jones, Jr. also sanctioned the government for its "belated" attempt to seek a protective order, ordering the government to pay certain costs which Judicial Watch incurred in having to cancel depositions because of the governments last minute filings. In addition to Lee and the other defendants, Judicial Watch will depose Janet Reno and Louis Freeh about the botched Wen Ho Lee investigation. "Wen Ho Lee, in order to deflect attention from his own wrongdoing, falsely accused Notra Trulock of conducting a racial witch-hunt against him. In order to rescue his good name and reputation, Trulock will show that Lee was subjected to an inquiry for espionage by the Department of Energy because of his actions, not because of his race,"stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman. === Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer*<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends === http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] NYP: Condit's 'ABC Reporter/Paramour' Involved in Another Scandal
-Caveat Lector- [Kasich and Condit were good buddies. Kasich, a republican even flew to CA and spoke at a Condit fundraiser. One rumor about Kasich was that he was having a relationship with a male staff member. The two of them lived together in DC. I guess the rumor could be based on what was only a money saving situation? Naah!] http://www.nypost.com/gossip/pagesix.htm New York Post July 12, 2001 Small world THE off-air ABC reporter Rep. Gary Condit met with the day after Chandra Levy disappeared was involved in another scandal involving a powerful politician and a buxom intern. The Post is not publishing the name of the ABC reporter who is said to have had an affair with Condit but is now married. But it is known she worked for U.N. Ambassador Bill Richardson when he was asked to give Monica Lewinsky a job. And Condit's cutie was the first in Richardson's office to interview her. ### INFO FROM FR THREAD FOLLOWS: http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3b4d65ea0cce.htm#1 [AN FR THREAD 2 DAYS AGO HAD SPECULATED THAT THIS ABC REPORTER WAS ELIZABETH WILNER: http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3b4b09ff60d9.htm , AND IN THE POSTS BELOW, THIS ABC REPORTER'S IDENTITY IS THOUGHT TO BE REBECCA COOPER. GOOD STUFF!!! ] To: kattracks Mona Sutphen and Rebecca Cooper 5 Posted on 07/12/2001 02:12:45 PDT by paul544 -- To: paul544 On Friday morning, October 31, Ambassador Richardson and two of his assistants, Mona Sutphen and Rebecca Cooper, interviewed Ms. Lewinsky at the Watergate.(646) According to Ambassador Richardson, he "listen[ed] while Mona and Rebecca were interviewing her."(647) Neither Ambassador Richardson nor any of his staff made inquiries, before or after the interview, about Ms. Lewinsky's prior work performance.(648) >From the Starr Report. Does one of these two work for ABC? -- To: paul544 confided to ABCNEWS' Rebecca Cooper This is one of the many articles at ABC News that have her mentioned http://more.abcnews.go.com/sections/politics/onbackground/onbackground00010 7.html Do we have a winner??? 7 Posted on 07/12/2001 02:30:29 PDT by paul544 -- To: YaYa123 Good morning! Glad you were reading last night's late, late posts. You're right - the Snow interview was one of the best. BTW, his eulogy of his friend Ken is one of the most moving I've ever read. I hope someday - a LONG time from now - someone writes something this nice about me. I have a whole bunch of new Condit thoughts. In no particular order: 1. Who owns the car? Where is it kept? A garage? An empty warehouse? Did a staff member drive Chandra and Condit around as he did Condit and Ann Marie? 2. How did Condit get from his office, to the doctor, to the restaurant to meet the ABC reporter, then home to his wife? Did someone drive him? Cabs? 3. Aren't you intrigued about the Sanchez connection? Whoa! >p> 4. John Kasich was (is?) a good friend of Condit. Kasich hasn't been married too long. Did they 'double date'? Is anyone asking Kasich what he knows? There were lots of rumors about Kasich before he married. You don't supposeno, I don't think so. 5. Why is NO ONE (but us) concerned about Condit's seat on the Intelligence Committee? I think he's been on that committee waaay too long. The cloak and dagger business with the women hiding in the alleys, taking the back stairs, getting off the elevator on another floor, leaving ID at home - all sounds like a James Bond wannabe. 6. BTW, don't you find the idea of these women 'dating' a married man pathetic? 7. Is anyone checking out the 'rape' allegation in CA in 1986? 8. Chandra's aunt said Condit bought her chocolates, flowers, a gold bracelet and AIRLINE TICKETS. Where did she go? Did he go with her? I can't see him buying tickets (plural) for her to go home - Daddy would likely have done that. 9. The girl from Modesto (the intern from 5 years ago with the phone numbers), the Minister's daughter, Chandra - all fit the Monica mold. But Ann Marie is different - older, smarter, more sophisticated, harder to fool than those young girls. Is she the exception to the rule, or isn't it equally likely that there are more of her type as yet undiscovered? 10. He offered a reward for another girl from Modesto. Did she ever show up? How old was she? Was she an intern? I'll keep thinking and looking around. 34 Posted on 07/12/2001 05:48:42 PDT by SmartBlonde --- To: BansheeBill I found this cached at Google.

Perhaps, but more to the point we have become a nation where children have not been taught ethics and morals, and who believe that their personal desires are the only thing of importance. They have not been told 'no' when they demanded something, and so have not learned to tolerate even the slightest amount of frustration. These children do not hesitate to hurt anyone who causes them discomfort. I can understand having a zero-tolerance policy in schools for carrying weapons, as long as it applies to REAL weapons and not something like a nail clipper. This boy KNEW that what he was bringing to the school dance was clearly a weapon -- the item is designed for no other use but as a weapon -- and chose to ignore or flaunt the policy. He should not be surprised at the consequences.

[CTRL] AP: FEC to Release Records in Democratic Fund-Raising Probe
-Caveat Lector- FEC to Release Records in Democratic Fund-Raising Probe The Associated Press Published: Jul 12, 2001 WASHINGTON (AP) - Documents from a federal probe into campaign activities coordinated by the Democratic National Committee and AFL-CIO will be released despite objections by the DNC and union. The Federal Election Commission voted 4-0 in closed session Wednesday to open for public inspection roughly 36,000 pages of records from its investigation. The DNC and AFL-CIO contended many of the documents contained confidential information and should be withheld from public view. The commission released about 6,000 pages in the spring, then withdrew the records after the DNC and the union objected. The FEC concluded last fall that close ties between the union and the DNC during the 1996 election were not illegal due to a federal court ruling imposing a stricter standard for determining illegal coordination. The commission began investigating after Republicans complained that the AFL-CIO spent up to $35 million to help Democrats in the 1996 elections. Republicans contended that the level of coordination between union and party officials made the spending illegal.

Re: [CTRL] Big Brother's New Prohibition
-Caveat Lector- One is too many. Ask my family -- my cousin was killed by a drunk driver when I was 17. Kent was driving a semi, a drunk in a converted school bus crossed 3 lanes of traffic and hit him head on. He was 25, he had gotten engaged to be married 2 weeks before. The drunk driver was also killed. I wish he could have survived, and been required to attend Kent's funeral, and seen the devastation he wreaked upon my family. I wish he would have survived to look into my aunt's eyes and explain himself to her. Drunk driving is an activity that the person chooses to do; don't look to me for sympathy. The only positive thing (if you can call it that) from Kent's death was that, for myself and my friends, it drove home the point about drinking and driving -- none of us has ever driven after drinking.

Why do you think that Jordanians are Palestinians? Palestine was a country before it was given to the Jewish survivors of the Holocaust by a couple of countries with bad consciences. There are even Palestinian Christians and Jews, although the latter have no cause to complain about the present arrangement. The Israeli tend to refer to all Moslems as "Arabs."

-Caveat Lector- This tells me the Mass. organization as a whole was not properly implementing safeguards. There is a BSA-wide policy prohibiting leaders from being alone 1 on 1 with any child; this is written in the manuals given to the boys, and in the supplement given to parents at the beginning of the year. Whenever a boy joins our pack, prevention of sexual abuse is the first thing they are instructed in. Also, all leaders are required to undergo a criminal background check and a training session during which time those with questionable personality or psychological characteristics are weeded out. Anticipating the question, I don't know how they decide this. Since I'm not a leader, I've not gone through the training myself. Being a leader is a huge time committment, which I can't make. I content myself with manning the sign-up/brochure desk at pack meetings. I haven't discussed the situation with the leadership in our pack, but at the next committee meeting in Sept., I will bring it up. Tenorlove = "I find television very educating.

[CTRL] Drudge: National Enquire: Chandra Levy Was Pregnant; Her Computer, Cell Phone Were Used Day After She Went Missing
-Caveat Lector- X DRUDGE REPORT X THURS JULY 12, 2001 15:49:00 ET X NATIONAL ENQUIRER: CHANDRA LEVY WAS PREGNANT; HER COMPUTER, CELL PHONE WERE USED DAY AFTER SHE WENT MISSING The NATIONAL ENQUIRER is reporting in its July 24 edition set to hit newstands on Friday that missing intern Chandra Levy was pregnant with Congressman Gary Condit's baby! "Authorities have information that Chandra told at least one friend that she was pregnant -- and she said the baby was Condit's," a source close to the investigation disclosed to the ENQUIRER. The ENQUIRER cites a Justice Department source: "A friend told investigators Chandra said she was pregnant. The FBI and Washington D.C. police have subpoenaed her medical records. One investigator told me: 'We believe Levy was pregnant!' The source also added, "The FBI does believe her disappearance is a 'love crime.'" The ENQUIRER quotes a source who says that at least 5 women who were romantically involved with Condit are now afraid of him, and are keeping a low profile. The ENQUIRER quotes a cousin of Chandra's, Michael Maistelman, who says that stewardess and former Condit lover Anne Marie Smiths's accounts of being followed "closely parallel" those told by Jennifer Baker, a former Condit intern and the person who introduced Levy to the congressman. "Jennifer is getting the same kind of phone calls and is convinced she's being followed," said Maistelman, who helped the Levys get the FBI involved in the case. According to a source at Justice, investigators "have records indicating someone used Chandra's computer the day after she was last seen on April 30, and that her cell phone had also been used on May 1." "Her computer was definitely logged on with her password."

[CTRL] Beyond Globalization
-Caveat Lector- Beyond Globalization: Shaping a Sustainable Global Economy by Hazel Henderson Increasingly, each of us is coming face to face with the effects of globalization. Today, this means that there is an entirely new level of global interdependence. Most realize the profound impact it has had on national economies, financial markets, corporations, production, distribution, trade and the spread of democracy. But far fewer are aware of the enormous effects that globalization is also having on the environment, cultural diversity and lifestyle choices. To add some perspective to the situation, Bucky Fuller wrote in the introduction to Critical Path that, "humanity is moving ever deeper into crisis, a crisis without precedent. First, it is a crisis brought about by cosmic evolution irrevocably intent upon completely transforming omni-disintegrated humanity from a complex of around-the-world, remotely-deployed-from-one-another, differently colored, differently credoed, differently cultured, differently communicating, and differently competing entities into a completely integrated, comprehensively inter-considerate, harmonious whole. Second, we are in an unprecedented crisis because cosmic evolution is also irrevocably intent upon making omni-integrated humanity omni-successful, able to live sustainingly at an unprecedentedly higher standard of living for all Earthians." At issue is not whether globalization is demonstrating that it has the power and speed to radically alter the prospects for humanity. The big question is, will the dominant operating paradigm shift rapidly enough from an ecologically destructive, win-lose proposition to an ecologically restorative win-win solution? If not, humanity's option for success is in serious jeopardy. Indeed, time is of the essence! It is our good fortune to have a new book by Hazel Henderson, the independent futurist, worldwide syndicated columnist, author, and consultant on sustainable development. A quick and easy read, Beyond Globalization provides a concise and visionary summary in 58 pages, of the driving forces, real problems, positive potentials, and accountabilities that surround this complex and highly controversial phenomenon. Most important, she outlines in a brilliantly clear manner a seven level strategy to reshape the global economy towards an ecologically sustainable win-win world that works for everyone. The seven levels that are addressed are: The Global System The International System The Nation State The Corporate System The Provincial and Local Systems The Civic Society The Family-Individual What's the bottom line according to Henderson? "For every country in the world to shift to sustainable development would cost $650 billion. That leaves $350 billion left from the $1 trillion in subsidies to unsustainability." The book was commissioned by the New Economics Foundation, (www.neweconomics.org) whose mission is to "construct a new economy centered on people and the environment." It also contains a bibliography organized to correspond with Henderson's seven level strategy, a comprehensive list of international treaties pointing to a new era of planetary awareness and cooperation and a useful directory of select periodicals and organizations. http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

Re: [CTRL] ISRAELIS GENERALS' PLAN TO "SMASH" PALESTINIANS (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- Sounds pretty reasonable (even cut and dried) to me. I don't know what they'll do to start it off, but remember that really good witnesses said that the explosion on the Maine was internal. I'm surprised the Israeli have held off as long as they have. I don't know how you say"The only good Palestinian is a dead Palestinian" in Hebrew, but I'll be they can tell you without a lot of thought. I hope I live long enough to see how they celebrate the national holiday of victory that will result from the purge. I only hope that after they've finally eliminated the Palestinians, my government will stop sending them my tax dollars.

[CTRL] CNSNews: Condit Admitted Sex Crimimal
-Caveat Lector- Condit Broke Local Law Prohibiting Adultery CNSNews.com July 13, 2001 (Washingtom D.C.) In the District of Columbia and 27 other states, adultery is a misdemeanor crime, with punishments ranging from a $10 fine to life in prison, the Libertarian Party noted on Thursday. Therefore, said Libertarian National Director Steve Dasbach, "California Congressman [Gary] Condit is a sex criminal - he confessed when he acknowledged having an affair with Chandra Levy." In making his point about unnecessary and obsolete laws, Dasbach said, "The only question now is whether the Congressman should go to jail for committing this sex crime." The Libertarians say the Condit case is interesting because it illustrates the stark difference between two types of crimes - "those that harm others and those that do not." The Libertarian Party urged D.C. police to continue looking for the person who may have harmed Chandra Levy. Police should "not spend one second prosecuting Congressman Condit for the so-called crime of adultery," the press release said. === Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer*<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends === http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] See and Be Seen
-Caveat Lector- See and Be Seen Does your TV spy on you? by Brendan I. Koerner July/August 2001 Media executives and TV addicts alike have been celebrating the advent of interactive television, like TiVo and Microsoft's UltimateTV. But the technology has the potential of turning into a public-relations nightmare. In March, the Denver-based Privacy Foundation reported that TiVo, a popular set-top box that can digitally record up to 30 hours of programming, sends nightly activity reports back to corporate headquarters. Using a built-in modem, TiVo transmits reams of information on everything from the console's internal temperature to users' viewing records. Do you have a weakness for "Judge Judy" that you'd prefer to keep secret? The folks at TiVo can find out. The company insists that it removes the data's personal markers and keeps only "anonymous viewing information." But Richard M. Smith, the Privacy Foundation's chief technology officer, says the practice conflicts with TiVo's written promise to its customers that "all of your personal viewing information remains on your receiver in your home." Any of TiVo's 150,000-some users can opt out of the data collection, but few have done soperhaps because the opt-out instructions are buried deep within the Byzantine literature that accompanies the device. And while the company's privacy policy forbids the peddling of customer information to advertisers, the manual takes care to note that rules "may change over time." The Privacy Foundation report, and testimony from Smith at a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing in April, spurred the Federal Trade Commission to launch an inquiry into whether TiVo violates its own data-collection guidelines. But technology companies are well prepared to counter such government intervention. The industry has organized to oppose legislation that would ban any data harvesting not explicitly authorized by the customer. Groups like the innocuous-sounding Online Privacy Alliance (OPA)whose members include Microsoft, AOL, and Yahooadvocate letting the industry regulate itself. Among the lobby's primary targets have been state lawmakers, particularly in California. Last year, high-tech clout helped defeat a bill in the California legislature that would have prohibited interactive TV providers from disclosing customers' viewing habits. aol circulated a letter to legislators claiming the law "would harm the development of the Internet and e-commerce," and the American Electronics Association (another OPA member) spent more than $140,000 on lobbying in the three months during which the bill was debated. The California measure was killed in committee, but the industry has had little time to celebrate. Over the first four months of this year, 465 privacy-related laws were introduced in state legislatures around the nation. If corporate data collection becomes an "opt-in" practice, as many of those bills propose, interactive TV will end up being far less interactive than its creators had hoped.
