Soul Betrayal - It's not just priests who abuse youngsters. Clergy of all faiths are guilty of sexual misconduct with children and adults. By Anne A. Simpkinson "While the media focuses on pedophile priests, what's being lost is the sad reality that sexual abuse of both children and adults is a serious problem among clergy of all faiths. http://www.beliefnet.com/story/101/story_10199.html In Depth - Transcript - 4/5/02 - BILL MOYERS: Eileen Welsome learned just how hard it is to find out what government doesn't want us to know. She won a Pulitzer Prize for searching out secrets dating back fifty years, to the dawn of the atomic age. EILEEN WELSOME (AUTHOR, THE PLUTONIUM FILES): I had come across a footnote in a scientific report describing 18 humans who had been injected with plutonium during the Manhattan Project. MOYERS: The Manhattan Project created the first atomic bomb. To study the effects of radiation on human beings, scientists working on the bomb injected unsuspecting Americans with radioactive plutonium. It was all top secret. WELSOME: The names of the scientists and the names of the patients were blacked out. And I was simply horrified. I wanted to find out who they were, why were they injected, did they develop cancer, did they have pain? What happened to them and why was it done? http://www.pbs.org/now/transcript/transcript_secretgov.html http://www.hindustantimes.com/nonfram/arcscript/htarchive.asp US suffers heavy losses in Afghan offensive: Report Arun Mohanty (IANS) Moscow, April 6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- The US army suffered heavy losses in Afghanistan during its offensive against Taliban and Al-Qaeda fighters in Shahi-Kot valley on Thursday night, a media report said.

According to a draft of the complaint, a group of nine financial institutions repeatedly structured deals to funnel millions of dollars in cash to Enron and a series of related partnerships, all to allow transactions that improperly increased Enron's profits and hid debt. In many of those transactions, the complaint says, senior bank officers themselves secretly invested in the partnerships, receiving quick, outsized profits for participating in deals that disguised Enron's true financial health. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
