Joseph Stack Suicide Letter [The Man Who Crashed His plane into the IRS Building]

 They're calling it the Joseph Stacks Manifesto below you find it in full....it's long but worth the read.....at least you'll get a better understanding of why he.....or should I say, what drove him to do what he did. I still don't think I would have taken the route that he did though....

Federal authorities are investigating the following Web posting linked to Joseph Stack, the pilot of the single-engine plane that crashed into an Austin, Texas, office building that housed IRS offices.
If you’re reading this, you’re no doubt asking yourself, “Why did this have to happen?” The simple truth is that it is complicated and has been coming for a long time. The writing process, started many months ago, was intended to be therapy in the face of the looming realization that there isn’t enough therapy in the world that can fix what is really broken. Needless to say, this rant could fill volumes with example after example if I would let it. I find the process of writing it frustrating, tedious, and probably pointless… especially given my gross inability to gracefully articulate my thoughts in light of the storm raging in my head. Exactly what is therapeutic about that I’m not sure, but desperate times call for desperate measures.

Was the earthquake that destroyed Port au Prince, capital of Haiti and home to 2 million Haitians, that killed 200,000 and caused tens of thousands to lose limbs man made? Did a U.S. weather weapon trigger it to secure Haiti’s vast riches in gold, silver, copper and oil? – Photo: Shaul Schwarz, Getty for TIME


'Misleading' science career report criticised

11 February 2010

A report commissioned by the Government as part of a campaign to promote science has been criticised for its "cut-and-paste" text and use of Wikipedia as a reference source.

The Shape of Jobs to Come was commissioned by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills as part of its "Science: So what? So everything" campaign.

It looks at careers that could emerge from advances in science and technology over the next 20 years, from "body-part maker" to "weather modification police".


More snow forecast for winter-weary states

 (Things that make you go....HMMMMMmmmmm....)       SOURCE

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15 (UPI) -- Large chunks of the United States were under weather alerts Monday with freezing rain, sleet and snow battering weather-weary states.

The National Weather Service issued storm warnings and weather advisories for Tuesday in sections of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia, especially mountainous regions, CNN reported.

Other warnings and watches were posted in Tennessee, Kentucky, and parts of the Midwest and the Mid-Atlantic states, weather officials said. Up to 3 inches of snow was expected by Monday in those areas.
Hundreds of flights in and out of Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta were canceled as the system moved in, CNN said.


The End Of Science Fiction

The end of science fiction By: Nerun Yakub  (click above title for souce}

Sometime in the 1990's, US military contractor, Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), was commissioned to hold a futuristic workshop, presenting strategic battlefield scenarios in which horrific new bio-weapons would be used. 'The Biotechnology 20/20 Workshop', as it was called, surveyed the whole gamut of bizarre weapons available, focusing on '…….. an all too credible array of deadly goodies that could be militarily viable by 2015 -2020 ……. not only leading to the death of distance, but the end of battlefields'. For there is no defence, as Pat Roy Mooney of RAFI (Rural Advancement Foundation International), says regarding biological warfare, in his thought-provoking work on 'The ETC Century: Erosion, Technological Transformation and Corporate Concentration in the 21st Century. (Development Dialogue 1999: 1- 2 published by The Dag Hammarsksjold Foundation, Uppsala, Sweden)
