What if Google expanded on its +search-engine (and now e-mail) wares into a full-fledged operating system? [via +Microsoft Watch from Mary Jo Foley ] + +(And, by the way, is anybody else just a little nostalgic for the days when that +was a good thing?) This BuzzMachine post argues that Google's rush toward +ubiquity might backfire -- which we've all heard before, but it's particularly +well-put in this post. Google is a nice search engine. Does anybody use it for +anything else? They own blogger, of course. Is that a money maker? I'm staying +away from the stock. + +I doubt the very few who actually read my blog have not come across this yet, +but I figured I would put it out there anyways. John Donovan from Argghhh! has +put out a excellent slide show on what was actually found and fought for in +Fallujah. Click here To view it. He makes some good observations on a few of the +pic's. One of the pictures shows a flag that was found in Fallujah. On the next +two pictures he took screenshots of two beheading video's. Compare the flags to +the Fallujah one. You have to see these slides....they are amazing. This +Fallujah operation my turn out to be the most important operation done by the US +Military since the end of the war. + +Let me join the chorus of annoyance over Google's new toolbar , which, as noted +in the linked article, commits just about every sin an online marketer could +commit, and makes up a few new ones besides. I'm not fond of the +Google-hates-privacy argument (You don't need to use their site, you can opt-out +of sharing your information, you don't need to send stuff to anyone with a Gmail +account, and if -- wonder of wonders -- you're worried that you might send +something to someone who would forward an excerpt to someone who would then +store it on a Gmail account... you have far, far too much time on your hands). +However, this toolbar is really bad news. On the other hand, it looks pretty +cool. + +Iran says it is creating nuclear energy without wanting nuclear weapons. The +United States doesn't believe the Iranian Government. One can suspect the +Iranian Government. But there is no proof . I read an Article in Time magazine +accusing the Iranian Government of being willing to start a nuclear war and I +sympathise with the Article. They are certainly being nasty to the United +Nations Security Council in connection with the anti-proliferation treaty. The +President has also said he would like to see Israel wiped off the map which he +couldn't even begin to try without nuclear weapons. But he has insisted that he +wants nuclear power for peaceful purposes. Many people want to use diplomacy +with Iran rather than military pressure. But will diplomacy work? And can anyone +use military pressure without proof? One reader pointed out that the President +watched the Americans in the embassy when they took them hostage. He has denied +this. We don't have to believe him. But we can't prove it. It does seem that +Iranians frequently make statements and then hide behind lack of proof. + +Angry crowds chanted anti-American slogans in the western city of Falluja (pop. +256,000) as the security police killed in a friendly fire incident by US troops +were buried on Saturday. Reuters reported that "Sunni clerics in the town issued +a 'Declaration by the people of Fallujah' condemning the deaths of the security +guards and police, announcing three days of mourning, and calling for a general +strike today." It read, "The people of Fallujah condemn the massacre which was +committed on Friday against people dedicated to the protection of Fallujah. Let +aggressive (American) leaders and soldiers know that we are capable of +protecting the city's security and safety, and ask them to lift their hands from +the city." The clerics demanded talks with local US commanders. Falluja has long +been roiled by tense relations with the US soldiers there, since local Sunnis +either remain committed to Arab nationalism or have become Sunni fundamentalists +or even radicals. Cities such as Falluja received special treatment from Saddam +and enjoyed a disproportionate share of the country's wealth and power. They +know that the American advent implies for them a demotion, and an elevation of +the Shiites and Kurds, and they refuse to go quietly. See +http://www.gulf-news.com/Articles/news.asp?ArticleID=97508 + +The Supreme Court announced its ruling today in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld divided along +idelogical lines with John Roberts abstaining due to his involvement at the D.C. +Circuit level and Anthony Kennedy joining the liberals in a 5-3 decision that is +185 pages long. The actual vote is a little confusing. Stay with me now: John +Paul STEVENS delivered the opinion of the Court with respect to Parts I through +IV, VI through VI-D-iii, VI-D-v, and VII, in which KENNEDY, SOUTER, GINSBURG, +and BREYER joined, and an opinion with respect to Parts V and VI-D-iv, in which +SOUTER, GINSBURG, and BREYER joined. BREYER filed a concurring opinion, in which +KENNEDY, SOUTER, and GINSBURG joined. KENNEDY filed an opinion concurring in +part, in which SOUTER, GINSBURG, and BREYER joined as to Parts I and II. SCALIA +filed a dissenting opinion, in which THOMAS and ALITO joined.

ALITO filed a dissenting opinion, in which +SCALIA and THOMAS joined as to Parts I through III. It will take me a little +while to read the whole thing, but I rarely agree with a John Paul Stevens +opinion. I'll post highlights from the opinion and dissents when I'm finished. + +Important news such as President Bush's miniscule calibrations on his marriage +amendment/anti-gay (update: he's not against gays in the bedroom, just at the +altar, where of course their relationships should not only be frowned upon but +should be constitutionally excluded) has pushed Sudan not just off the front +pages, or the A section, but out of the NY Times and Washington Post completely. +I had to go to the BBC for this report . It's symptomatic, I suppose, of our +fast-paced, 24 hour news-cycle lives, that the biggest short-term humanitarian +crisis in the world would quickly be eclipsed, once our Secretary of State was +finished with his whirlwind tour, from the newspapers. It's just disappointing. +Most troubling, however, is the fact that the political will to end the crisis +expressed a few short weeks ago seems to have ebbed. At that time, UN Secretary +General Kofi Annan demanded steps be taken to end the ethnic violence in Darfur +within 48 hours. Two weeks later, and the violence continues. The African Union +is clearly not up to the task of keeping the peace, pledging 300 troops to an +area that will need 15,000, according to analysts. And international donors have +given only half of the relief aid that Darfur needs, according to the local UN +officials. So hear we are, two weeks later, after that dazzling PR display two +weeks ago by Powell and Annan, and the situation on the ground in Darfur appears +basically unchanged. + +Warren Buffett is giving away 85% of his wealth , mostly to the Bill and Melinda +Gates Foundation. It's a move that really worries me; Buffett's usual +justification for keeping most of his money was that he was still compounding +the value of his fortune at a pretty high rate, so any gifts now would mean +significantly less money for the foundation later. It's a little hard to parse, +but at this point his ostensible view is that the Gateses are very good +money-redistributors, and he wants them to have the money as soon as possible. +Which essentially sounds like he's worried that Bill or Melinda are going to die +soon. I assume his actual reason is that he's worried that Berkshire Hathaway +just can't grow quickly enough to justify his usual charity policy. I'm not sure +how the market will react. It doesn't change the company's intrinsic worth, and +as the article notes, the company might be added to a major index once the +shares get more liquid. On the other hand, this is essentially a statement that +the company is overpriced from the guy who knows it best -- and happens to be +the best investor of the last century. em ... no ... the Gates foundation mainly +invests in medical research and education, that means donating now adds a +tremendous value compared to donating in ten years. Because the 10.000.000 +people dying from malaria will otherwise be dead. i.e. He's not giving 85% away, +he's giving a number of shares each year that decrease in number at the rate of +5% a year (until gone?). He mentions his wife's death having an effect on him. +It sounds pretty rational that he's saying that Bill and Melinda are at a prime +spot, so starting the money hose now is a good idea, but Buffet is still keeping +most of his donation inside of Berkshire where it will compound. + +Bill over at The Fourth Rail has an excellent essay on how the MSM and the UN, +even the leftist countries in Europe, are basically accepting terrorist +organizations as legitimate forms of a political party: On the same day +Palestinians protest in support of Hezbollah and Syria , the terrorist group +Hamas has indicated it will participate in the scheduled upcoming Parliamentary +elections . To the north in Lebanon, there is serious debate within Hezbollah +about entering the Lebanese political process in light of Syria's promised +withdrawal. Syria has agreed to withdraw under the conditions set forth in UNSC +Resolution 1559 , which has already begun . UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan has +indicated it is time to "recognize Hezbollah" after easily being duped by "the +message on the placards they are using". This acceptance of blatantly terrorist +groups as legitimate freedom movements is a cancerous tumor on the United +Nations and the media. Over three years after 9-11, the United Nations, despite +their attempts to project strength in fighting terrorism , still cannot properly +define the word "terrorist" , waffling over the issue of whether the murder of +innocent civilians are terrorist acts. The media routinely obscures the lines +between terrorism and legitimate resistance, as the recent article by Daniel +Okrent of The New York Times demonstrates . ... The decision to sidestep the +obvious to satisfy the need to avoid confrontation does not bring peace, but +only delays the eventual conflict as the predators of Hamas and Hezbollah +exploit the inherent weakness of the internationals and the media. I've been +fuming over this fact for a few weeks now, ever since some organizations and +governments suggested we need to accept the fact that Hezbollah will get +involved in running Lebanon. Wtf is this? This is a terrorist organization plain +and simple. This is the organization that bombed our Marine barracks in 1983, +took Americans hostage throughout the 80's and now they should be considered a +legitimate organization? This is just another reason to never trust the MSM, and +certainly not the Europeans. + +The Iraqi Islamic Party lead by Muhsin Abdul Hamid, has been among the few Sunni +Muslim groups willing to cooperate (even if rather lukewarmly) with the +Americans. It is now threatening to pull out of the Allawi caretaker government. +The IIP had also been the main force urging Sunni Arabs to participate in the +elections scheduled for January, and had been opposed in this stance by the +Association of Muslim Scholars. That the Iraqi Islamic Party is now +contemplating leaving the Allawi government raises the question of whether a +mass Sunni Arab boycott of the elections is in the offing, thus fatally +weakening the legitimacy of any new government. Az-Zaman : The Association of +Muslim Scholars forbade Iraqis to participate in the attack on Fallujah with the +Americans. In a communique, the AMS said that for Iraqis to take part with +"raiding forces" in the assault on a city, the population of which is Muslim +(such as Fallujah) would be considered the most mortal of mortal sins. The Sunni +AMS told Iraqis, "You sinned when you participated with occupation forces in the +assault on Najaf, and beware lest you repeat this same sin in Fallujah. Remember +that the Occupation is emphemeral." The radical Shiite Sadr movement issued a +statement forbidding the participation of Iraqi troops in the attack on +Fallujah, as well. The statement said, "We direct an appeal at the men in the +Iraqi forces, whether national guards or others, the majority of whom are +Muslim, calling upon them to refrain for commiting this enormous sin under the +banner of forces that do not respect our religion or any principles of basic +humanity, and we ask them to view this war as illegal." It called a "ploy" the +assertaion that the attack was merely on foreign fighters at Fallujah. The +convergence of views among the more militant Sunni Muslim clerics of AMS and the +radical Shiites of the Sadr movement has been seen before, last spring during +the initial US assault on Fallujah and during the US attack on Mahdi Army +militiamen in Najaf. Most Shiites, however, are still reluctant to take major +risks to support the Sunnis of Fallujah, many of whom had supported Saddam and +his anti-Shiite pogroms. + +President Bush pinched a few nerves yesterday with his choice of words: +WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Muslim groups criticized President Bush on Thursday +for calling a foiled plot to blow up airplanes part of a "war with Islamic +fascists," saying the term could inflame anti-Muslim tensions. U.S. officials +have said the plot, thwarted by Britain, to blow up several aircraft over the +Atlantic bore many of the hallmarks of al Qaeda. "We believe this is an +ill-advised term and we believe that it is counterproductive to associate Islam +or Muslims with fascism," said Nihad Awad, executive director of the Council on +American-Islamic Relations advocacy group. Which is why he didn't say we're at +war with Islamic people. We're at war with Islamic fascists. By using the word +"Islamic" as an adjective Bush was purposely not associating Muslims with +fascism, hence the qualifier. And if you haven't heard by now, the roster of +suspected terrorists has not a Tom, Dick or Harry among them: Umir Hussain, 24, +London E14 Muhammed Usman Saddique, 24, London E17 Waheed Zaman, 22, London E17 +Assan Abdullah Khan, 22, London E17 Waseem Kayani, 28, High Wycombe Waheed +Arafat Khan, 24, London E17 Cossor Ali, 24, London E17 Tayib Rauf, 21, +Birmingham Ibrahim Savant, 26, London E17 Osman Adam Khatib, 20, London E17 +Shamin Mohammed Uddin, 36, Stoke Newington Amin Asmin Tariq, 23, London E17 +Shazad Khuram Ali, 27, High Wycombe Tanvir Hussain, 24, London E10 Umar Islam, +28, (born Brian Young) High Wycombe Assad Sarwar, 25, High Wycombe Abdullah Ali, +26, London E17 Abdul Muneem Patel, 17, London E5 Nabeel Hussain, 21, Waltham +Forest Lest you be confused with the suspects from an earlier plot foiled in +Canada a few months ago: Fahim Ahmad, 21, Toronto; Zakaria Amara, 20, +Mississauga, Ont.; Asad Ansari, 21, Mississauga; Shareef Abdelhaleen, 30, +Mississauga; Qayyum Abdul Jamal, 43, Mississauga; Mohammed Dirie, 22, Kingston, +Ont.; Yasim Abdi Mohamed, 24, Kingston; Jahmaal James, 23, Toronto; Amin Mohamed +Durrani, 19, Toronto; Steven Vikash Chand alias Abdul Shakur, 25, Toronto; Ahmad +Mustafa Ghany, 21, Mississauga; Saad Khalid, 19, of Eclipse Avenue, Mississauga. +We've got a Steven, the one word that didn't crash my spell-check, despite it +being followed by a Vikash Chand Abdul Shakur. Folks, if it's Islamic, and +fascist, it's an Islamic fascist. But because we don't want to sound hateful we +must pretend everyone's a possible suspect and make airline travel more +miserable than it's ever been. + +On the internet site of Monotheism and Holy War (al-Tawhid wa al-Jihad) , the +group allegedly declared, "We announce that the Tawhid and Jihad Group, its +prince and soldiers, have pledged allegiance to the sheikh of the mujahideen +Osama bin Laden." This pledge is a new development. Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and his +group are said to have been bitter rivals of al-Qaeda during the Afghan +resistance days. One witness at the Moutasaddiq trial in Germany alleged that +Zarqawi had not allowed Monotheism and Holy War to share resources with al-Qaeda +in the early zeroes of the 21st century. If the statement is true, it is a +worrying sign that even the divided small radical guerrilla groups are being +"picked up" by al-Qaeda. This consolidation is obviously a result of Bush's +aggressive invasion of Iraq and of the botching of the aftermath. It is a +setback for the war on terror. Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan was a group of only a few +hundred "Afghan Arabs" who pledged personal loyalty to Usamah Bin Laden. It +could notionally be expanded to encompass the 5,000-strong "55th Brigade" of the +Taliban regime, though this is not the technical definition. Because Usamah is +Saudi, my guess is that they were especially influenced by an extremist form of +the Wahhabi school of Islam that predominates among Saudia's some 15 million +citizens. In 1998 they were joined by Egyptians from the al-Jihad al-Islami +group of Ayman al-Zawahiri (many of these were from Upper Egypt, especially +Asyut and environs). After that point, al-Qaeda was a joint enterprise between +the Egyptian extremists and the polyglot Arabs around Bin Laden, only some of +whom were Saudi. Zarqawi is a Jordanian, and his Monotheism and Holy War group +in Afghanistan probably had a distinctive coloration as mainly Jordanian, +Palestinian and Syrian. They also had a special connection to some extremists in +Jordan and Germany. They are probably especially oriented toward the Salafi +school of modern Islamic thought, which has a Protestant-like emphasis on going +back to the original practice of the early companions of the Prophet Muhammad. +(Most Salafis are not militant or violent, though they tend to be rather +narrow-minded in my experience, on the order of Protestant Pietists). Monotheism +and Holy War obviously does have a violent interpretation of Salafism, rather as +the the leaders of the so-called German Peasant Rebellion among early +Protestants did. Another worrisome sign is that local Iraqi Sunni +fundamentalists opposed to the US presence in Iraq have begun joining Monotheism +and Holy War, and wearing its distinctive orange and black insignia. These have +been sighted among Iraqi crowds on Haifa Street in Baghdad and in Samarra. So +now there are hundreds of al-Qaeda members in Iraq where there had been none +before. The consolidation of smaller local radical fundamentalist groups with +al-Qaeda can also be seen in the case of the Fizazi group in Tangiers that +morphed into the Moroccan Islamic Combatant Group , had members who met with +September 11 ringleader Muhammad Atta, and ultimately was in part responsible +for the Madrid train bombings. + +The September 11 Panel will issue its findings on Thursday. It notes 10 points +at which the US made key mistakes that might have stopped Bin Laden's plot. Four +of these were under Clinton and 6 under Bush. Bush came out today and said that +if he had known what was coming, he would have expended every effort to stop it, +and that so would have Clinton. This statement is, despite its facade of +fair-mindedness, so many weasel words. Of course Bush would have tried to stop +9/11 if he had known it was coming. The question is, "Should he have known it +was coming?" The answer is, "Yes!" We now know that Bush and his administration +came into office obsessed with Iraq. Cheney was looking at maps of Iraq oil +fields and muttering about opportunities for US companies there, already in +January or February of 2001. Wolfowitz contradicted counter-terrorism czar +Richard Clarke when the latter spoke of the al-Qaeda threat, insisting that the +preeminent threat of terrorism against the US came from Iraq, and indicating he +accepted Laurie Mylroie's crackpot conspiracy theory that Saddam was behind the +1993 World Trade Towers bombing. If you believe crackpot theories instead of +focusing on the reality--that was an al-Qaeda operation mainly carried out by +al-Gamaa al-Islamiyyah, an Egyptian terrorist component allied with Bin Laden-- +then you will concentrate on the wrong threat. Even after the attacks on +September 11, Bush was obsessing about Iraq. Wolfowitz lied to him and said that +there was a 10 to 50% chance that Iraq was behind them. (On what evidence? The +hijackers were obviously al-Qaeda, and no operational links between al-Qaeda and +Iraq had ever been found). Rumsfeld initially rejected an attack on al-Qaeda +bases in Afghanistan, saying there were "no good targets" in Afghanistan. (What +about 40 al-Qaeda bases that had trained the 9/11 hijackers and other terrorists +gunning for the United States??) The Pentagon did not even have a plan for +dealing with Afghanistan or al-Qaeda that it could pull off the shelf, according +to Bob Woodward. Bush did not have his eye on the ball. Neither did Cheney, +Rumsfeld, or Wolfowitz. They were playing Captain Ahab to Saddam's great white +whale. Imperial Hubris makes the case that lots of people in the CIA and +counter-terrorism divisions elsewhere in the US government knew all about Bin +Laden and the threat he posed. They were from all accounts marginalized and not +listened to. Bush demoted Dick Clarke, among the most vocal and focused of the +al-Qaeda experts, from his cabinet. Dick could never thereafter get any real +cooperation from the cabinet officers, who outranked him, and he could not +convince them to go to battle stations in the summer of 2001 when George Tenet's +hair was "on fire" about the excited chatter the CIA was picking up from radical +Islamist terrorists. As for the Clinton administration, let me say one thing in +its defense. Clinton had worked out a deal with Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz +Sharif in summer of 1999 that would have allowed the US to send a Special Ops +team in after Bin Laden in Qandahar, based from Pakistan. I presume you need the +Pakistan base for rescue operations in case anything went wrong. You also need +Pakistani air space. The plan was all set and could have succeeded. But in fall +of 1999, Gen. Pervez Musharraf made a coup against Nawaz Sharif. The Pakistani +army was rife with elements protective of the Taliban, and the new military +government reneged on the deal. Musharraf told Clinton he couldn't use Pakistani +soil or air space to send the team in against Bin Laden. Look at a map and you +try to figure out how, in fall of 1999, you could possibly pull off such an +operation without Pakistani facilities. Of course, you could just go in by main +force. But for those of you tempted in that direction, please look up Carter's +Tabas operation. It should be easily googled. Clinton tried, and tried hard. The +gods weren't with us on that one. + +that is how i want you to refer to me as "the king" i don't think so. i'm the +king + +yeah sounds exciting. want to go to dinner with me before you have your 'matt +time'? probablyl gonna just kick it + +you know, whatever. i will let you know later. what are you doing tonight. like +what? i can think of a few things + +your retarded. i used to have one. they are great dogs. cockerspaniels are +retarded. why do you think i should get one of those? + +can't believe you left last night. nice sarcasm. that's fine, i don't want to +see you either, i just need to make a cd. i can't wait + +i was thinking somewhere that requires a jacket, like tony's. someplace that is +like $30 an entree. yeah, i was thinking somewhere like mcdonald's. that may be +too nice though. what do you think? we can go somewhere nice. real nice. + +oh. my bad. i must have had you messed up with some other girl i made the bet +with. bet? really, i have no idea what you're talking about. you must be +thinking of someone else. i don't even like a&m, i wouldn't bet on them. +colorado beat texas a&m. i know you remember the bet. + +no. i got her number though. i want to hook up with that girl paige in the brown +leather jacket. what happened to you? i had a blast that night. did you hook up +with that blonde chick saturday night? no i am not lying. i flew here last +night. are you lying? i am out of town. i am in portland. you can buy me dinner +when we get back. + +i am sure they are. houston won't be too affected b/c most of the layoffs affect +satelite offices. economy should be good here. hopefully she doesn't hose you. +I'll probably start looking next weekend.

Volatility of +USD/DM has been in the range of between 7% and 11%. Can one of your research +staff justify a suitable 20 year volalatility number for USD/Euro. Ideally, we +would like a fast turnaround. In addition, is there someone who could consider +the correlation between US CPI and the $/euro exchange rate.

We will have to correct them after the churn. Thank you +for you patience. The Dow topped out in February of 1966 at 995. By September of +that year the Dow had tumbled to 744. The Dow then rallied to a high of 943 in +September of '67. By March of '68 the Dow had fallen to 825, only to climb to a +highly speculative peak of 985 in December of '68. The Dow then sank to 631 in +December of '70. By April of '71 the Dow had climbed back to 950, only to fall +to 869 in February of '72. A big rally then took the Dow (unconfirmed) to a +record high of 1051 in January of '73, turning everyone bullish. But by December +of '73 the Dow had collapsed to 788. Think that was bad - by December of '74 the +Dow had sunk to a bear market low of 577. At that time, the gurus and geniuses +of Wall Street were predicting a 250 Dow and many were talking openly about the +end of capitalism. Of course, that was the bottom And that's the way the +greatest bear market since the Depression worked its way down. By late 1974 +investors were dizzy, they were desperate, they were wrung-out, they had left +Wall Street, many for good. great, we look forward to seeing you.

Debra Perlingiere Edward Terry 09/08/2000 +09:55 AM FYI, Per the memo, ENA's storage account will be REDUCED by 420,588 +mmbtu!!!!!! Robert D Morgan 09/08/2000 09:36 AM The results of the February 26th +PVT test conducted on Nville have been discussed with each of you over the last +three months. As we have discussed....effective Sep 13th, Anita will make the +adjustments to Enron's inventory and pad gas to reflect the February 26th +results. I talked with Gary Wilson, and he confirmed that the revised values are +correct. Attached is a spreadsheet that contains the values. The correction to +the working gas includes TWO corrections. The results of the February 26th test +reduces the working gas by 398,487MMBTU. In addition, there is a reduction of +22,101MMBTU which is the difference between the SCADA values (Best Available) +that Anita showed on the February 29th Storage Sheet and the "official" February +29th values that Gary Wilson received from MIPS. To summarize: Enron's pad gas +will now be 3,993,310MMBTU, instead of 4,223,000MMBTU. Enron's working gas will +be reduced by 420,588MMBTU.

The guaranty for the PPA is +blacklined against the Enron EPC Contract guaranty in favor of the banks which +was granted in connection with our Cabazon Wind Power Project (the project most +recently financed by EWC) and the GPSA guaranty is blacklined against the PPA +guaranty. As we discussed last week, since the Enron guaranties will need to be +in a form that will acceptable to our project lenders and equity participants, +we thought that we should start with a form that was used in our last financing +and that was negotiated by Enron and the banks. We plan to use the same basic +form for the Enron guaranty that will be made in favor of EPMI with respect to +the seller's obligations under the PPA. We will forward the draft of that +guaranty to you later today. Please feel free to give me a call if you have any +questions concerning the attached guaranties.

He is now lecturing in USA. His art +perfectly combines painting and Chinese calligraphy. He is regarded as one of +the leading Avant-Garde artist of modern calligraphy. His artworks were selected +and exhibited in British Museum in 2002. "Wei has given some virtuoso +performances with brush and ink, often incorporating several different +techniques into a single work," said Gordon S. Barrass, curator of the +exhibition. In the world of "Wei's magic cubes," all seem to be ingeniously +planned and tricky. All are mathematical, all are linguistic. In Wei's art, a +logician could see mathematical logic, a cellist could see a ripple of nine bass +notes, a country girl could see straw, and Harry Potter could see two +accompanied green blazes.

"Our new lunar +transportation system utilizes a unique architecture that will establish the +equivalent of a two-way highway between the Earth and the Moon," Kistler told +SPACE.com. "Our plans include raising private capital to develop, build, flight +test, and operate this Earth-Moon highway for the benefit of the country and the +benefit of our investors." Wise decision to go through the private +sector--NASA's budget may be kinda tight to fund a project like this. This group +does sound pretty interesting though. The Lunar Transporatation Systems (LTS) is +actually being funded by two space businessmen, Walter Kistler and Bob Citron. +Both of these men are heavily involved in the private sector of the space +industry, and both are also involved with another space company called SPACEHAB +. They want to use LTS to tie into NASA's vision for Space Exploration, and seem +pleased that the White House is moving in that direction. "We are so excited +that the White House and the recent new government space policy underscores the +need to involve the private sector in assisting NASA develop its plans for the +new Vision for Space Exploration," said Walter Kistler, LTS co-founder and +Chairman. With their proposal of a "Earth-Moon" highway, it looks like space +tourism may become a reality sooner than we think.

Lunar +landers and other gear needed for extended visits to the moon will be lofted by +gargantuan launchers as big as the Apollo-era Saturn 5, the most powerful +rockets ever flown. It looks as if NASA is transitioning away from the shuttle +model, as in the past they have proven to be quite dangerous as Columbia has +recently proved. Although these new rockets are probably more expensive, they +will be able to go at a much greater range than it's shuttle cousins, as they +can not only break free from the atmosphere but reach the moon as well. "NASA +will initiate development of a Crew Launch Vehicle derived from space shuttle +solid rocket boosters with a new upper stage for human spaceflight," said the +letter, signed by NASA Administrator Mike Griffin and the Pentagon's top space +official, ex-astronaut Ron Sega... "NASA then plans to develop a new +100-metric-ton-class launch vehicle derived from existing capabilities with the +space shuttle external tanks and solid rocket boosters for future missions to +the moon," the letter said. NASA is planning on using these new shuttles to +replace the current models, with industry forecasters predicting a launch as +early as 2014. The new rocket design will differ slightly from it's +predecessors, in the fact that the crew and cargo would launch separately from +two different rockets each and join up in space later on. Launching this way +will hopefully avoid future disasters, giving more support towards NASA +revisiting the stars. -- Posted by Hidden Nook to Hidden Nook at 8/30/2005 +09:36:00 PM + +George and Lynne image001.jpg 51K Download Funny stuff lifted from another list +Amy:-) ------ We could certainly slow the aging process down if it had to work +its way through Congress. - Will Rogers I had a rose named after me and I was +very flattered.

Well if you +are interested, I suggest you have a look at General Fiasco, Two Door Cinema +Club and Wallis Bird. I think you will be pleased. I doubt you will get a +sensible answer in the "TRAVEL" section. *Ireland And there's nothing distinctly +Irish about them. You'd find similar bands to them that are from the UK and US. + +Women's rain coat...where can I find one? I'm going on a trip to Europe soon, +and I need to find a good, quality raincoat. I've looked and looked, but cannot +find one anywhere! I would prefer a simple, fitted black one. It actually needs +to be relatively waterproof - the last one I bought had me soaked in anything +more than light/moderate rain. I'll pay up to 200-250 for it if I have to. Look +on the debenhams website in the craghoppers section they do some good waterproof +raincoats heres the link: +http://www.debenhams.com/women/craghoppers#catalogId=10001&lid=//productsuniverse/en_GB/product_online0Y/categories%3C0productsuniverse_186610/brand_description0.000000E+000craghoppers0/categories%3C0productsuniverse_18661_186820&ps=default&sfn=Categories&sfv=Coats+%26amp0+jackets&storeId=10001 + +I have a Kodak Camera (10.2 Megapixels)...

You don't... there's no such +thing as "pause" in digital recording. That's because of the buffer that holds +the data until it's ready to be recorded to the memory card. When you press the +button to stop recording the data is moved from the buffer to the memory card - +no pause. All you can do is take each section (individual video) and edit them +together on software. + +I have a Nacho Libre question.? When nacho is driving to cure the influenza guy +does he say to the man with the cow i like your blouse or I like your cow +because my friend thinks he says I like your blouse, but that wouldn't make +sense. I know its in the wrong catagory, but still, I wrote this question for a +reason, not for you to critisize me. Okay, FIRST, you have posted a question +about an American movie, set in Mexico, in the Dining Out in Argentina category. +Do you get what's wrong with this picture? No...that's all. No second.

I have a friend out in Chicago +this week, and I am trying to remember the name of an awesome hibachi style +restaurant i visited while out there a couple years ago. I think it was in the +Lincoln Square area but don't quote me on that. It's 'gimmick' was that you fill +your bowl cafeteria-style from raw ingredients and leave it on the counter with +a chopstick listing your table number on it. Four guys around a large square +open hibachi cook your food, and when it's finished a server brings it to your +table. All-you can-eat style deal. It was pretty epic as I remember and would +love to send my friend there. Any help? That is Flat Top Grill + +What's the best time to start a trip around the world? Well,I'm about to +graduate in less then a year,and I'm planning to study medical school.But since +in my country it lasts for minimum 6 years,and I want to go aground the +world,what do you think,should I do it before or after medical school? If you +can afford to go before, then by all means, GO. If you have to wait, due to +financial reasons, then wait. I would much rather put it off until I can afford +to have the vacation of a lifetime as I'm sure this trip is intended to be. +Airfare alone will be incredibly expensive so make sure you have the money and +of course free time to take your time and have a great time. + +canon t2i stops working?

Your camera isn't acting normally, you got +warranty, let Canon deal with it. I would agree. I shoot a t1i and haven't had +such an issue. I also agree it's under warranty so get in touch with Canon. It +sounds like a firmware issue and the camera requires a re-boot just like what +happens in a computer - needs a re-start from time to time but it shouldn't be +happening in a camera. Call Canon + +Cheapest airline ticket from Raleigh to Philippines? I'm going on a vacation to +the Philippines in May 2012, and I'm starting from Raleigh, NC (RDU Airport). +Which airlines should I look into and when should I buy my ticket? The sooner +the better but I'd probably wait until after the holidays. Use Travelocity or +Expedia and see what you come up with. My friend goes to the Phils every 6 +months or so and she has found that Korean Air has had the cheapest fares +lately. Raleigh to Chicago, Chicago to Seoul and then Seoul to Manila. Compare +compare compare - that's the key to getting the best deal. Ask a travel agent! +On my last 6 trips here from the states I used "Fly genesis" based in Seattle, +Wa. They gave the best service & rates I could find. + +What is the best place to get discounts for San Francisco restaurants? I just +moved into the city, and I'm wondering if there's a place I can get good deals +on restaurants here. I don't want to have to deal with those deal-a-day websites +like Groupon. I just want a simple way to get a good deal to whatever Restaurant +I want, whenever I want. Any suggestions would be really helpful, thanks! I +usually use ZebraKlub. They basically buy daily deals from Groupon, Living +Social, and all sorts of other places. So you can pretty much get whatever deal +you want anytime. Most of the deals let you eat for 500ff, and some of the deals +are even free. If you want to eat cheaply without worrying about all those daily +deal emails every day, ZebraKlub should be perfect for you. + +Where can I go on a first date (adults)? Looking for something on the casual +side and we want it to be fun. May seem a little silly, but, taking a long ride +on the Metra system or the "L" system is a great way to see the city and sites +without spending a fortune. Or how about visiting the Chicago Botanical Gardens +and see the change of colors and enjoy the air, They also have many inside +exhibits you might enjoy, food is pretty good to. go 2 starbucks dont spend more +than 20 bucks :) Bike ride in the park, followed by coffee. You are busy, you +don't have to sit face to face to try to make convo, it's short, so if things go +great, you can extend, and if you want to end it, you just say bye, gotta go. + +I decided to get a 150 gal aquarium, what can I fill it with?

I'll choose the one that sounds the +best after looking into all the fish :) Here is the stocking for my 150 gallon +tank i upgraded it to 200 at the weekend because of the clownloach A 200 gallon +with 6 pairs of Breeding Angel fish fire mouth honey Gouramis 5 8 inch +clownloach a Krib and 5 1 inch clown loach with 16 cory cats 5 Australian +Rainbows If you took out the clown loach it would make a nice 150 gallon tank. +fill it with water :) lol for a tank that size i would suggest oscars or piranha +every time awesome fish!! + +never response the phone call + +Great deals, great pizza! + +Great gym and great services. + +Dr. White is the best! + +Good clean store nice car wash + +It's well cool. :) + +Awesome service with a smile :) + +WHAT A GREAT DEAL THANK YOU + +The pancakes are to die for. + +Best fried shrimp in the state! + +Fast and great service on pool covers + +Friendliest place I have ever stayed! + +The best pilates on the Gold Coast! + +It taste better than In and Out.... + +Good local steakhouse, I recommend it! + +Dessert was good.

Susanna is the best dress maker/tailor I've ever come +across in my whole life! She makes every item fit you perfectly. She is always +so busy, too, which is a good indication of her talent. She's the best! + +teeth this dentist want to pull the tooth out always.. always wants to do the +cheapest for his benefit.. not unless he knows you. and hopefully you do not +know the same people because he tells others about you payment status. Which +should be a private issue + +I hired this company to unlock my car. The price they gave was good so I said +hey this seems great. After they showed up there was a little trouble to get my +car unlocked, it took quite a bit of time but the job was well done. + +Bulwark regarding service by Eric Just wanted you to know that Eric came by as +scheduled today and sprayed our house for scorpions. He seemed to understand how +important it was for us to make sure the whole house was sprayed so he took his +time. Thank you! + +A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE! I remain unhappy. I still have noticeable scarring. I +still have surgically induced hair loss. My results were just AWFUL. My post-op +treatment was TERRIBLE. I wouldn't recommend this place last year, and I +certainly wouldn't recommend them this year. + +Hidden Treasure. Strip mall asian it is not! Go in and you will not think you +are in Chesapeake. The setting feels like a Sushi bar in NYC; small, cozy, but +with flair. Get great service, fantastic menu, and relax. Best in HR so far! + +Excellent medical care!!!!!! Highly recommend I went to this urgent care center +and was blown away with their service. Finally a convenient place close to home. +Wonderful staff and physician. Clean and superb. Thanks for the great care!!!! +Will definitely go back when I need medical care. + +excellence in glasgow Iv just had my bmw z3 rear window replaced by the guys at +kelvin trimmers. The team who work there are helpfull, friendly and extremely +knowledgeable and will help you as much as they can with thier years of hands on +practice. Highly recomended. + +My favorite place... My daughter and I stayed here again from the 7th to the +14th of December.yet again it was a great stay from begiinning to end.Okay our +room was at times noisy but we were in a mega busy city at an extremely busy +time of year. + +A Definite No Incompetent servers, kitchen and management. Expect either +undercooked or mushy food and lackluster service. The investors put big bucks +into the building but are clueless about what makes a good dining or bar +experience. Even the least discriminating diner would know not to eat at +Sprecher's. + +Wonderful Atmosphere I have been going there since I was a little girl and love +the friendly and relaxing atmosphere. Dr. Stiefvater has always been very +professional and helpful. I would recommend Bayside Chiropractic to anyone who +is in need of a regular adjustment or is suffering from a chronic condition. + +Channel Guide Believe it or not, but the channel guide has been most helpful to +my family members that visit and don't know where to start when it comes to +watching satellite tv. I just give them guide and they can find anything they +need. Thanks again, Directv. + +Michael helped shoot the majority of my firm's website and we could not have +been happier. We went through six photographers to find the right photographers +that would represent our firm in the light we wished to and Michael and his team +made that happen. He's worth every penny. + +Average food and deathly slow service I have eaten here several times and +everytime the service is slower than slow. One time we even left after sitting +at the table for 20 minutes and not being greeted with a drink order. +Ridiculous. There must be a better mexican place in Rockland. + +I am in love with the giant plate of nachos! Last time I went however, my beer +was warm and the service was so-so. I get that careless teenager kind of +treatment from some of their staff...perhaps they should hire more serious +adults to help serve/cook. + +nice friendly local bagel place there might be bigger and more well known bagel +places in the area but Family Bagels are nice people, small shop and incredibly +friendly. While other may be ok waiting in line at Town Bagel we are happy with +the quality and service we get at Family Bagels + +Very Mediocre donuts! The Donuts were very over proofed, making them stale and +bready. The service was friendly and fast, but this just doesnt make up for the +lack-luster product. We tried 4 different style of donuts, they were all the +same when it came to quality. + +a staple! I live in the neighborhood and this place is one of my favorites for a +tasty, quick and inexpensive meal. Branch out and try something other than the +Pad Thai, the curries are fantastic. Fast and friendly service, they know my +order when I walk in the door! + +On time, Clean and very nice I called over the weekend due to clogged kitchen +sink. Scheduled appointment for 8:30 Monday morning. Rich was here before the +scheduled time. He was very clean, very nice to work with and gave a very +reasonable price. HIGHLY recommend. thanks Rich Seth K. + +Deep tissue massage helps with pain in neck and shoulders Seth provides deep +tissue massage which has significantly reduced the pain in my neck and shoulders +and added flexibility and movement back to the area. He listens and is excellent +in diagnosing, addressing and explaining the specific issues and suggesting +exercises to use.
