32 FOR NOTHING WE RAN. AGAINST THE WIND, THE RAIN AND THE STEAM OF THE MASSIVE
|
||
33 machine. It was foolish to run, but it was foolish to be alive in an age of
|
||
34 iron hearts and steel fists. The machine towered into the storm clouds above
|
||
35 our heads, and dug into the earth beneath our run. Looming overhead was the
|
||
36 steam from the pipes, the grimy faces of the ones who still slaved for the
|
||
37 machine, and our destiny in the maw of the machine.
|
||
38 The rain was pouring down the steel path before us. Our feet were awash in
|
||
39 water and steel. I was the first to lose my footing. I almost fell, but saved
|
||
40 myself by running faster and faster until I was on my feet again.
|
||
41 So when the girl fell onto her chest and slid along, it took me two or
|
||
42 three seconds to go back for her. I faced the way we came. I saw the halftrack
|
||
43 rolling closer and closer under full steam. Panic set in. I grabbed the girl's
|
||
44 hand and pulled as hard as I could. She was not getting up. I was dragging her
|
||
45 through the pools of water on the path. Then, I looked up. It was here. Here.
|
||
46 Finally.

72 as long as you are growing in some personal way then go for it.
|

73
|

74 This means that if ordering that Pizza will make you a better person

272 PROJECT GALILEO SHUTTLE TO CARRY LETHAL PLUTONIUM
|
||
273
|
||
274 Despite scientific warnings of a possible disaster, NASA is
|
||
275 pursuing plans to launch the Project Galileo shuttle space probe which
|
||
276 will carry enough plutonium to kill every person on earth.
|
||
277 Theoretically, one pound of polutonium, uniformly distributed,
|
||
278 has the potential to give everyone on the planet a fatal case of lung
|
||
279 cancer. Galileo will have 49.25 pounds of plutonium on board, most of
|
||
280 it plutonium 238, a radioisotope 300 times more radioactive than the
|
||
281 one used as fuel for atomic bombs.
|
||
282 Critics of the plan, such as Dr. John Gofman, professor of
|
||
283 medical physics at the University of California, Berkeley, and Michio
|
||
284 Kaku, professor of nuclear physics at the City University of New York
|
||
285 claim that putting Galileo's plutonium payload into space is both
|
||
286 risky and unnecessary.
|
||
287 The plutonium will be used to fuel "radioisotope thermoelectric
|
||
288 generators" which keep instrumentation warm. Although NASA and the
|
||
289 DOE say there are no alternatives, professor Kaku asserts that the
|
||
290 latest advances in solar cells make it possible to generate solar
|
||
291 electricity even as far away as Jupiter, Galileo's destination.
|
||
292 NASA downplays the possibility of the release of plutonim in an
|
||
293 accident, stressing that the substance will be encapsulated in "clads"
|
||
294 made from iridium alloy in a graphite shell. The DOE contends that
|
||
295 clads can withstand explosive pressures up to 2,200 pounds per square
|
||
296 inch. However, a DOE safety analysis report on the Galileo mission
|
||
297 obtained under FOIA states that from the viewpoint of potential
|
||
298 nuclear fuel release, the most critical accidents would occur on the
|
||
299 launch pad. Launch pad accident scenarios, such as "tipovers" and
|
||
300 "pushovers" are estimated to generate explosive pressures as high as
|
||
301 19,600 psi.
|
||
302 Once in space, Galileo is still potentially danglerous. Since
|
||
303 the solid-fuel rocket substituted for the highly volatile liquid-fuel
|
||
304 Centaur rocket used in the Challenger does not have the power of the

305 Centaur, NASA devised a plan to use the earth's gravitational pull to
|
||
306 increase the rocket's momentum sufficiently to reach Jupiter. During
|
||
307 the "flyby" orbits around the earth, Galileo would at times be only
|
||
308 277 miles overhead. A 1987 NASA report estimates the chance of
|
||
309 Galileo inadvertently reentering the earth's atmosphere to be less
|
||
310 than one in a million, and, as such, an accident scenario is deemed
|
||
311 not credible.
|
||
312 NASA set the probability figures for the chance of a shuttle
|
||
313 accident at one in 100,000 for thhe Challenger. Investigation
|
||
314 following the crash put the figure at closer to one in 25.
|
||
315 While "The Lethal Shuttle: Plutonium Payload Scheduled" was one
|
||
316 of the top 10 overlooked stories cited by Project Censored in 1986,
|
||
317 the continued failure of the media to draw attention to the potential
|
||
318 risk of Project Galileo fully warrants its renomination for 1987.

346 A secret:
|
||
347 There is no matter. Matter is an incarnation of energy (ref. Einstein,
|
||
348 et. al.), therefore everything is energy, but existing in two states.
|
||
349
|
||
350 Think it over...

351
|
||
352

354
|
||
355 The Tower loomed in the distence, seemingly forgotted. Large birds
|
||
356 flew overhead, hundreds circling the tower for prey. As dark as the
|
||
357 surroundings were at that place, one could make out things that
|
||
358 slithered and oozed along the walls. Every now and then a bird would
|
||
359 swoop down and sieze one of the creatures on the walls, and fly off as
|
||
360 the thing would struggle and spurt blood into the air, making
|
||
361 horrid screams. The tower itself was in a state of decay, with
|
||
362 some sections covered in filth and overgrowth, others with holes
|
||
363 where previous adventurerers had fought and lost against the
|
||
364 inhabitents. Large burnmarks and places where the wall was
|
||
365 cracked or partly missing could be seen at this distence;
|
||
366 such was the size of the place. It drew energy towards itself
|
||
367 at a mind-boggling rate, which would explain for the clouded appearence
|
||
368 around it on a sunny day. Even the motion of the circling birds
|
||
369 overhead gave some energy, as the poor beasts tryed to stay aloft
|
||
370 from the gravitational pull.
|
||
371
|
||
372 Then I 'felt' it.
|
||
373
|
||
374 He was in a serious condition. I gave him an energy tap to keep
|
||
375 the Orb from drawing all of his existence away from him.
|
||
376
|
||
377 John and the Brownie were up, and nearly going at it again.
|
||
378
|
||
379 Kurfur was fully awake, and from the look of his Eyes, I could
|
||
380 tell what he wanted. The way he stared at the tower, with
|
||
381 no mercy, no pity. He wanted more than revenge. He wanted
|
||
382 his pride. He would not be denied a warrior's fate. And a warrior's
|
||
383 life; only when the Dark Ones were slain, pacified, or neutralized
|
||
384 would he rest or eat. And even then, the scar would still be
|
||
385 barely visible.
|
||
386
|
||
387 The energy tap I made was becoming tight; I widened the stream
|
||
388 as the Orb continued its drain. I had to get him to the tower,
|
||
389 into the heart of the tower. There, he would find the Orb, but
|
||
390 he would only be able to recover it at great risk to his
|
||
391 life, for in the holding chamber, there were many traps and
|
||
392 creatures I dare not describe, and things that would
|
||
393 haunt my mind in my dreams for years to come. And, for every
|
||
394 person that failed, their carcus would be either strewn on the
|
||
395 floor from where the bones were regurgitated, or where a trap
|
||
396 had ripped or poked or crushed or cut the life out of their frail
|
||
397 bodies.
|
||
398
|
||
399 John had to be stable throughout all of this; if he should
|
||
400 become unglued from the horrors in this, his fear could have
|
||
401 a drastic effect on the time flow of the tower. And, life forbid,
|
||
402 if he should lose his sanity, I could not figure if it would
|
||
403 react to the strange powers in that vile place. The dimension might
|
||
404 even cease to exist, as the interaction of energies would snuff out
|
||
405 all of our existences in the twinkling of an eye.
|
||
406
|
||
407 And that was only the beginning.
|
||
408
|
||
409 Between the energy tap, the interaction of my existence and the
|
||
410 strange energies of this place, John's mental stability (which I
|
||
411 would probably need to stablize through thought transference),
|
||
412 and keeping Kurfur alert after X number of beserkergangs, my hands
|
||
413 would basically be tied. In short, an easy target for the Dark Ones.
|
||
414
|
||
415 I remembered:
|
||
416
|
||
417 "If you should fail, pick up the pieces and make the most of it."
|
||
418
|
||
419 If I failed, I would have to literally give my life to every
|
||
420 person present. It would insure their safe return to the Inn,
|
||
421 when this was over.
|
||
422
|
||
423 I just realized I was whistling while I was p*ssing. I
|
||
424 concentrated ahead to see if the creatures were lying in ambush;
|
||
425 I found that they were in the tower. Along with everyone and everything.
|
||
426
|
||
427 I took a breath, uttered a short mantra for a minute in meditation,
|
||
428 and then opened the Eye.
|
||
429
|
||
430 I smiled. I knew. I could not tell the others, but it
|
||
431 would be alright. I could tell them afterwards. I closed the Eye.
|
||
432
|
||
433 "Let's go." I hovered towards the tower at about a walking speed.

|
||
442 We stopped some distance away from the Citadel of the Lords of Darkness,
|
||
443 which looked as horrible and decrepit as the rest of its surroundings,
|
||
444 all around the tower there were blast marks, whole areas of grass burned
|
||
445 away leaving barren, scorched earth where green meadows once were, from
|
||
446 magic blasts and fires from previous battles fought, and lost, against the
|
||
447 evil ones. It was still night, so we weren't noticed by any of the guards
|
||
448 as of yet. The Wanderer was lighting the way for us against the darkness
|
||
449 with a magic spell that he knew. We could still see much against the sky
|
||
450 though, and it was becoming lighter, annoucing the beginning of a new day,
|
||
451 which would hopefully see the end of the Lords of Darkness.
|
||
452 The Wanderer spoke the dissolve magic spell spell, and just after that
|
||
453 the first light of the sun peeked from behind the Citadel, though it soon
|
||
454 be came lost in the dismal mist surrounding the tower and covering the sky.
|
||
455 The Guru signaled us to begin our advance on the tower and began by
|
||
456 moving ahead at a nice walking speed. I moved up behind the Guru and asked
|
||
457 him, "If it isn't night how can we get by the guards without being seen?"
|
||
458 "I have altered the light waves that we reflect, bending them so the
|
||
459 guards see only the familiar, though sickening, field and forest that they
|
||
460 are so used to. Just as light waves can be bent, so can sound waves.", he
|
||
461 said alknowing.
|
||
462 "I see...", and I fell into step beside him.
|
||
463 Kurfur had hatred and malice in his eyes as he walked on the other side
|
||
464 of the Guru, wanting to destroy the Lords of Darkness to the last man.
|
||
465 The Wanderer and his ever hungry for power Orb was just behind Kurfur and
|
||
466 to his left. Johnny Edison Interdemensional Polic Officer was just behind
|
||
467 me carrying the tub which, at the push of a button, had transformed into a
|
||
468 small cube in his right hand, and next to him the Brownie was walking, for
|
||
469 the first time there was a silence between them as they gazed at the tower
|
||
470 with apprehension.
|
||
471 We approached the moat whose drawbridge was up and in the water were
|
||
472 a altered breed of Phiranah fish who were always hungry and attacked in
|
||
473 milliseconds - leaving bones in the water where that person fell in. The
|
||
474 Guru moved towards me and inquired, "Do you know a spell that can make
|
||
475 a bridge? Or something similar?", he said.
|
||
476 I turned to him and replied, "No, but I do know a spell that makes wood
|
||
477 timbers, which can be used to make a bridge."
|
||
478 "I can alter the structure and arrangement of things, but not make
|
||
479 things with my power. I will make a bridge from your wood boards", he said
|
||
480 sounding relived that he had found a way across.
|
||
032=Usr:104 Trokin Korka 08/23/88 13:18 Msg:2159 Call:10003791 Lines:29
|
||
481 I then thought of something and became very worried and asked the Guru,
|
||
482 "How are you going to shield the bridge from the guards sight and sound
|
||
483 also, while you are shielding us?"
|
||
484 "That is a problem", he said and thought for a moment,"Kurfur, could
|
||
485 you incapacitate those two guards on this side of the tower...And make it
|
||
486 quiet and quick."
|
||
487 Kufur moved over to the guard on the far right and hit him on the back
|
||
488 of the head when the other guard was lookig in the other direction. He
|
||
489 moved speedily over to the second sentenial and completed his job most
|
||
490 effeciently.
|
||
491 I brought up the spell and said, "Kanee Rheenar Morook", which caused
|
||
492 many wooden, cut boards to appear on the near bank of the moat. The Guru
|
||
493 motioned his hand causing them to conform into a make-shift bridge.
|
||
494 We moved across the bridge and onto the side of the Citadel. I stopped
|
||
495 and said a destroy my own spells work spell, which caused the wood to
|
||
496 vanish to be called up when we were ready to leave. I went over to the
|
||
497 group which was standing next to the closed drawbridge. The Guru then
|
||
498 said, "I will change your molecular densities causing you and all of your
|
||
499 posessions to be able to move through this drawbridge, but still be able
|
||
500 to move by my mental propulsion", and as he was saying this, we suddenly
|
||
501 saw the surroundings as very small and minute, due to the fact that our
|
||
502 eyes also changed in density, and moved forward through the tiny
|
||
503 drawbridge and porticulous.
|
||
504 When we passed through the entryway we returned to normal size, inside
|
||
505 the Citadel of the Lords of Darkness.

510 Well, now I see wht those stories were "censored". If quality of the reporting
|
||
511 in the other stories is of the same level as that in the one about the
|
||
512 plutonium inthe Galileo probe, then they aren't news stories! Rather, they are
|
||
513 *poorly written* propaganda!
|
||
514
|
||
515 First of all, the plutonium *even if it escaped* would *not* be evenly
|
||
516 distributed. Speculating on the effects if it was evenly distributed is like
|
||
517 speculating on the effects on world climate if rainfall is evenly distributed!
|
||
518
|
||
519 Second, The fact that the isotope is more radioactive than that used in bombs
|
||
520 is another red herring. The isotopes used in nuclear weapons, aren't all that
|
||
521 radioactive. Heck, the radioisotopes in your *smoke alarm* are more radioactive
|
||
522 than the stuff in this probe! (yes, Virginia, there are radio-isotopes in your
|
||
523 smoke detector. It won't work without them!) (btw, there's a lot more than 40
|
||
524 pounds of such isotopes out there in consumer products like smoke detectors,
|
||
525 and they are a *lot* more likely to be released)
|
||
526
|
||
527 As for the hazards, the type of generators used on missions like Galileo have
|
||
528 been tested in real explosions! (a few of them in accidents). One such unit
|
||
529 was in a satellite whose booster exploded. They recovered the generator
|
||
530 *intact* from the Atlantic, and put it in the replacement satellite when they
|
||
531 launched it.
|
||
532
|
||
533 There was one on the LM on Appollo 13. In case you've forgotten, the LM re-
|
||
534 entered at speeds similar to those that Galileo would be at during those
|
||
535 near Earth gravity slingshots. The LM burned up. They never found the
|
||
536 generator, but careful monitoring showed no trace of the plutonium so it *must*
|
||
537 may landed intact. (It would be on the abyssal plain in mid-Pacific if you
|
||
538 care to look for it).
|
||
539
|
||
540 This whole story is based on the paranoia surrounding the word "plutonium".

|
||
560 Between 1979 and 1985, U.S. military and economic aid to Honduras
|
||
561 jumped from $31 to $282 million yearly. The largest increase was in
|
||
562 military aid which jumped to 28 times the 1979 level. In exchange,
|
||
563 Honduras agreed to become a base for some 15,000 Nicaraguan "contras,"
|
||
564 to join the U.S. military in joint maneuvers, and to provide
|
||
565 logistical and intelligence support to the Salvadoran military in its
|
||
566 war against the guerrillas.
|
||
567 During the same time period, U.S. aid designated for development
|
||
568 assistance dropped from 80 percent to six percent.
|
||
569 To make matters even worse, floods washed away 60 percent of the
|
||
570 corn crop in southern Honduras in May 1986. A severe summer drought
|
||
571 followed the flood, destroying all that remained of the corn and
|
||
572 wiping out 60 percent of the area's sorghum.
|
||
573 Bishop Raul Corriveau, the archbishop of Choluteca, said,
|
||
574 "We've seen scenes of misery like never before. Children with swollen
|
||
575 bellies, old people looking like corpses, women and children begging
|
||
576 for food, men roaming the streets searching for work."
|
||
577 Due to airstrips and bases built by the U.S. and the presence of
|
||
578 contras and American troops (80,000 troops in 1987), Hondurans living
|
||
579 in the southern region and along the eastern border have been
|
||
580 displaced. The livelihoods of 2,000 Honduran coffee growers have been
|
||
581 destroyed and 16,000 Hondurans have been forced to leave their homes.
|
||
582 Orphanages and temporary shelters have been filled with "economic
|
||
583 orphans" -- children who have been abandoned by parents who can no
|
||
584 longer afford to raise them ... parents who have seen their coffee
|
||
585 bean fields turned into battlefields.
|
||
586 It has been estimated that 70 percent of the children are
|
||
587 malnourished. Among those brought to the capital's hospital for
|
||
588 treatment, 10 to 15 percent die due to a lack of vitamins.
|
||
589 Dr. Juan Almendares, a physician conducting research on
|
||
590 malnutrition at the National University in Tegucigalpa, "When the
|
||
591 government says there is no money available to help the hungry, we
|
||
592 must remember that Honduras receives more than $200 million a year
|
||
593 from the U.S. government. We Hondurans ask why isn't any of this money
|
||
594 going to help the poor?"
|
||
595 Ann M. Kelly, editor of FOOD FIRST NEWS, a quarterly published by
|
||
596 the Institute for Food and Development Policy, wrote the following
|
||
597 lead to Medea Benjamin's article about the Honduran situation:
|
||
598 "While working on a new Food First book in Honduras, Medea
|
||
599 Benjamin -- Food First's Central American analyst -- uncovered a food
|
||
600 crisis of frightening proportions in the southern part of the country.
|
||
601 We alerted national media in the United States but the story went
|

602 uncovered."

633 DECLINE IN GENETIC DIVERSITY: GLOBAL DISASTER IN THE MAKING
|
||
634
|
||
635 Diversity in the gene pool is shrinking at an alarming rate and
|
||
636 could lead to what Robert Cowen, science editor of the CHRISTIAN
|
||
637 SCIENCE MONITOR, says "could become a mass extinction of Earth's plant
|
||
638 and animal species." Species extinction of both plants and animals has
|
||
639 accelerated rapidly in the 20th century and has reached what many feel
|
||
640 is a state of crisis. From 1600 to 1900, one species disappeared every
|
||
641 four years; now perhaps 1,000 species become extinct each year. The
|
||
642 Worldwatch Institute pamphlet on conserving the diversity of life,
|
||
643 published in June 1987, predicts the extinction rate in 20 years will
|
||
644 reach more than 100 species per day.
|
||
645 The loss of life forms is more than an aesthetic issue. The
|
||
646 rapid extinction of food crop germplasm represents a disaster in the
|
||
647 making. Unless the trend is slowed, mass famine on a global scale is
|
||
648 a real possibility. The International Board for Plant Genetic
|
||
649 Resources has issued warnings that the genetic diversity of many of
|
||
650 the staple crops that feed the world such as wheat, rice, barley,
|
||
651 millet, and sorghum is imperiled. 72% of the U.S. potato crop is
|
||
652 concentrated in four genetic strains. Six varieties account for 71%
|
||
653 of the corn crop. Of the cataloged vegetables grown in the U.S. in
|
||
654 1901/02, less than four percent still existed in 1985.
|
||
655 Genetic diversity is a prerequisite for agricultural success.
|
||
656 Genetic uniformity makes crops vulnerable to environmental threats
|
||
657 such as pests, blight, and drought. The Irish potato famine was the
|
||
658 result of genetic uniformity. The U.S. lost 75% of its durum wheat
|
||
659 crop in 1953/54 and 50% of its corn crop in 1970, both due to genetic
|
||
660 uniformity.
|
||
661 The dimunition of diversity has led to what some researchers call
|
||
662 the global "seed wars." As plant species disappear around the world,
|
||
663 "access to, control over and preservation of plant genetic resources
|
||
664 becomes a matter of international concern and conflict." The vast
|
||
665 majority of the world's genetic resources is concentrated in the Third
|
||
666 World. In order to prevent crop stains from inbreeding, the industrial
|
||
667 nations resort to "germplasm appropriation," a strategy for collecting
|
||
668 plant genetic material from Third World countries. The fact that the
|
||
669 "collection" is done without recompense further exacerbates tensions
|
||
670 between industrial and developing nations.
|
||
671 The Plant Variety Protection Act legislation of 1970, which
|
||
672 broadened the interpretation of U.S. patent laws to allow corporations
|
||
673 to patent seed varieties, has accelerated the extinction rate of food
|
||
674 crop germplasm. Germplasm appropriated from the Third World is sold
|
||
675 back to developing countries in the form of hybridized, patented seed.
|
||
676 Farmers in the world's centers of diversity are planting genetically
|
||
677 uniform crops more and more frequently, thus causing further loss of
|
||
678 indigenous seed. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization
|
||
679 estimates that two thirds of all Third World crops will be from
|
||
680 uniform strains by the year 2000.
|
||
681 The disappearance of genetic diversity either by accident or
|
||
682 design is a critical issue that has had little media coverage or
|
||
683 public debate. Germplasm has not made headlines. There are no "Save
|
||
684 the Barley" bumperstickers. Yet every day, more and more of our
|
||
685 precious food sources disappear forever.

916 One day I was watching the late night movie on channel 12 when suddenly my
|
||
917
|
||
918 tongue started growing. It looked pretty sick. It was getting longer and
|
||
919 longer by the hour then it was crawling on the0floob, which tasted pretty
|
||
920 awful then it wrapped around the house a couple of times before it went out
|
||
921 in the street. A big large semi truck was heading full speed right towards
|
||
922 my tongue. I freaked! I could not do anything about the siteqtio~. So the
|
||
923 truck was moving faster and faster and faster. OUCH OUCH OUCH!!!! I screamed
|
||
924 as the tire rolled over my slobbeering tongue. Blood everywhere. It was a
|
||
925 disgusting and unforgetable sight. So now I cannot talk anymore. I loct my
|
||
926 tongue in surgery. The doctors tried to tie it in a big fat not. But it
|
||
927 didn't work so finally they had to ?(this is sick) chop it off with a big ugly
|
||
928 chainsaw that was in grandma's kitchen. Eventually I began to say words again
|
||
929 with what little tongue I had left. This is basically the end of this awful
|
||
930 and totaly fake story. Thanx for listening. Comments are not nessicary(excuse
|
||
931 my bad english!!!!!!!!)- Mr. Bald tongue

964 And the light shone on the window. It was a tall window, somewhat like the

965 windows you see in churches. And above the window was a door. Out of the
|

9&6 door walked a strange alian creature. It pulled out a gun and shot itself
