seti: Best. Headline. Ever.

Censored story of 2006: recent conflict between Israel and Palestine began when *Israeli* forces abducted two civilians, from Gaza.

plutonoid: according to Chomsky, Roy, Klein, Zinn, etc ... mainstream press of course gave the opposite impression, reporting the Hezbollah tit-for-tat which occured later as being the "trigger"
plutonoid: of course their letter was also under-reported ... something about he who shouts loudest laughs last
plutonoid: andof course, BUNKER BUSTERS
plutonoid: expansion
plutonoid: summary: <israel> pwned
plutonoid: nice: "a uniformed, front-line noncommissioned officer can no more be 'kidnapped' by the enemy than an innocent, unarmed child can 'die in battle'." (Los Angeles Times, August 12, 2006)
plutonoid: offsite cache
seti: it's kidnapping if they're held for ransom, which those Israeli soldiers were. Hezbollah committed a war crime by not treating those soldiers as POWs (notwithstanding whatever Israel did).
plutonoid: anyway .. so the background was for this: Israel maintains a blockade 7-weeks on preventing recovery .. and Lebanon still has the two Israeli soldiers ... and Kofi Anon has inspected the wreckage and isn't very impressed
plutonoid: furthermore, I am shocked and amazed that I was unable to find a single image of the Jedi Council with Kofi Anon's head photoshopped ont the body of Mace Windu
plutonoid: http://images.google.com/images?q=kofi%20annan%20Mace%20Windu

The Economics Of Prostitution

coderman: "The two well-respected economists created a minor stir in academic circles a few years back when they published "A Theory of Prostitution" in the Journal of Political Economy. The paper was remarkable not only for being accepted by a major journal but also because it considered wives and whores as economic "goods" that can be substituted for each other. Men buy, women sell."
coderman: hey, this sounds like ladder theory...

Hand Vascular Works Superbly as High Security Access Control

coderman: ""Our VP-II is the 1st commercialised biometrics security system based on Vascular Pattern Recognition technology." said the company's technical manager, Mr. Puen Suan Wong. Experts say that lack of System Usability is a major technical obstacle preventing market dissemination of biometrics technology. However, this system boasts of 99.98% usability and accuracy(FAR: 0.0001%)."
coderman: this is technically incorrect as the NSA and others have been using retinal vascular scans for auth long before
coderman: (this is the first hand vascular auth system, which is much more friendly to use)

Schoolgirl 'stabbed for love of AC/DC'

coderman: "She had been the victim of a string of attacks, threats and had even received prank calls at home because she is what is known as "a metaler", Guildford Crown Court heard today."

coderman: which is a classified national security state secret
infoantichrist: "He said he had fabricated his own videotaped FBI confession -- in which he described visiting a militant camp in Pakistan where his son had allegedly trained -- because agents refused to believe the truth and because he was tired."
coderman: <CIA> our loopholes are second to none, bitches!
infoantichrist: US govt spin: "take anything Umer Hayat says with a grain of salt. He seems capable of saying whatever needs to be said at any particular time, whether it's the truth or not."
infoantichrist: unbfuckinglievable
