Amber alert : Bush is a war criminal
So what the fuck is this story about a woman, 8 months pregnant is murdered and then has her still live fetus cut from her body?
http://www.cnn.com/2004/LAW/12/18/missouri.fetus/index.html
This happened in a red state people. Missouri. Having never been, I'd generally say, Missourians are good people.
But this kind of thing is a red state thing. Lives get twisted, lives get prescripted.
Sure violent crime happens anywhere, but this is a special kind of crime. The need to have what you desire more than life, so that you kill the source of what you need. It's beyond reason.
It's truly sad. I am sad to hear this story. It's so fucking ridiculous.
And what's worse is that it doesn't even compare to the far more farcical feats of his Shrubness, the Almighty W., and his Minions of Full Faith.
Let's watch the local and network news programs and see which of these truly sensational stories get the bulk of front pages, headlines, and tape tickers.
God bless the USA. We are morally superior to all others.

The War Crimes Files - W. strikes again!
As reported by the award winning "Democracy NOW!" news program...
New Evidence Of U.S. Torture in Iraq Emerges
Newly released military documents show Marines carried out mock executions, used electric shocks and burned prisoners. The documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act has revealed that at least 13 Marines were court martialed for taking part in the abuse.
None of their cases had been previously reported. In one case, three marines were convicted after they "ordered four juvenile Iraqi looters to kneel beside two shallow fighting holes and a pistol was discharged to conduct a mock execution".
The American Civil Liberties Union, which obtained the documents, has accused the Pentagon of withholding more information on torture in Iraq. Meanwhile the Pentagon has admitted that at least eight detainees have died in US custody in Afghanistan. The admission came following a critical report by Human Rights Watch that assailed the military's "culture of impunity" on prisoner abuse.
god bless Amy Goodman!

Censorship W. Style - Bush Monkey and artist Christopher Savido
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A portrait of President Bush using monkeys to form his image led to the closure of a New York art exhibition over the weekend and anguished protests on Monday over freedom of expression.
"Bush Monkeys," a small acrylic on canvas by Chris Savido, created the stir at the Chelsea Market public space, leading the market's managers to close down the 60-piece show that was scheduled to stay up for the next month.
The show featured art from the upcoming issue of Animal Magazine, a quarterly publication featuring emerging artists.
"We had tons of people, like more than 2,000 people show up for the opening on Thursday night," said show organizer Bucky Turco. "Then this manager saw the piece and the guy just kind of flipped out. 'The show is over. Get this work down or I'm gonna arrest you,' he said. It's been kind of wild."
Turco took the show down on Saturday and moved the art work to his small downtown Animal Gallery. Calls to the management of Chelsea Market for comment were not returned.
From afar, the painting offers a likeness of Bush, but when you get closer you see the image is made up of chimpanzees or monkeys swimming in a marsh.
Savido, 23, said he was surprised by the strong reaction to his painting, listed in the catalog at $3,500.
"It seems like people got a kick out of it," Savido said. "When they really see it, they almost do a double-take. I like to get a reaction from people."
The Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-bred artist said he was happy for all the attention paid to his work but said the decision to shutter the exhibit was "a blatant act of censorship."
Savido plans to auction the painting and donate proceeds to an organization dedicated to freedom of expression.
"This is much deeper than art. This is fundamental American rights, freedom of speech," Savido said. "To see that something like this can happen, especially in a place like New York City is mind boggling and scary."

3DOTD Announces Puzzle Competition: Send those responses in quick!
The task is easy. Below is a birds eye view of a section of city. The black area represents building, the white area-- streets. In this puzzle you belong to a group known as the Jenga Heights Movement. NO, this group is not a terrorist organization; however, I have heard that the catholic church has now been added to the list of terrorists. Jenga heights is a fictional group of people. Now, back to the task.
You are mobilizing a march through the streets and you need officials to observe every street in this section of the street, just to make sure things don't get out of hand. Your job in this puzzle is not only to determine how many officials it will take to keep an eye on every street, but also to place them on the street.
To solve: open pic in mspaint and place dots on the street. save file and send to: 3dotd
A random drawing will occur, followed by some chanting, standard goat sacrifice, and a prize mailed. Prize not yet determined, although both a Canadian quarter and an empty beer bottle have been mentioned. I guess it will come down to which is more accessible.

NY State tests AIDS drug on Foster Children
AIDS TOTS USED AS 'GUINEA PIGS'
By DOUGLAS MONTERO
February 29, 2004 -- The state Health Department has launched a probe into potentially dangerous drug research conducted on HIV-infected infants and children at a Manhattan foster-care agency, The Post has learned.
Some 50 foster kids were used as "guinea pigs" in 13 experiments with high doses of AIDS medications at Manhattan's Incarnation Children's Center, sources said.
Most of the ICC experiments were funded by federal grants and in some cases, pharmaceutical companies. They used city foster children, who were sent to the Catholic Archdiocese-run facility by the Administration for Children's Services.
ICC was involved in 36 different experiments, according to the National Institutes of Health Web site. One study researched "HIV Wasting Syndrome," which studied how a child's body changes when his medication is altered.
A handful of the experiments involved combining up to six AIDS drugs - so-called "cocktails" - in children as young as 3 months, and another explores the reaction of not one, but two doses of the measles vaccine in kids ages 6 to 7 months.
Other studies tested the "safety," "tolerance" and "toxicity" of AIDS drugs.
"They are torturing these kids, and it is nothing short of murder," said Michael Ellner, a minister and president of Health Education AIDS Liaison, an advocacy group for HIV parents.
Biochemist Dr. David Rasnick, a visiting scholar at the University of California at Berkeley and an expert in AIDS medication, was outraged because the drugs, alone or combined, have "acute toxicity which could be fatal."
He said the drugs' side effects include severe liver damage, cancerous tumors, severe anemia, muscle wasting, severe and life-threatening rashes and "buffalo hump," where fatty tissues accumulate behind the neck.
Housed in a former convent and run by the Archdiocese of New York's Catholic Charities, the foster-care agency described the experiments on its own Web site, which was abruptly shut down after The Post began making inquiries.
Archdiocese spokesman Joseph Zwilling said experiments at ICC were halted in 2002. He said he did not know why. Zwil- ling also said he did not know if any children had died.
An ACS spokeswoman said the agency hasn't approved any new experiments since 2000 because the "risks outweighed the benefits." She declined to explain further. That agency is also reviewing its files on the case.
Jacqueline Hoerger was a pediatric nurse at ICC from 1989 to 1993 and said the experimentation was going on even back then. "We were taught that any symptom we saw was HIV-related," said Hoerger, 43. "The vomiting, diarrhea, wasting syndrome, the neurological side effects - they were dying. There was death."
She didn't think doctors were doing anything wrong, however, until years later, when she tried to adopt two of the foster girls. When she refused to give the kids the center's high-powered AIDS cocktails for fear it was making them sicker, ACS had social workers take the children away from her.
Advocates for children question the ethics of experimenting on foster kids - especially those too young to know what's happening to them.
"The most vulnerable, disadvantaged children are being exploited by powerful entities and used as guinea pigs as if they were not human beings," said Vera Sharav from the Alliance for Human Research and Protection.
The tests were conducted by doctors from Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center, which was affiliated with ICC until 2002 and reaped the financial benefits of the research.
"Through these trials, children at the ICC outpatient clinic gained access to state-of-the-art treatments for HIV," said Annie Bayne, a Columbia spokeswoman.
ACS policy states it seeks parental consent before a child is enrolled in a study. If the parents cannot be found, ACS's medical and legal divisions, and its commissioner, must all approve.
The condition, however, is that the experiment "offer each participating child a significant potential benefit, a concomitant minimal risk of injury or harm," ACS spokeswoman MacLean Guthrie said.
Fire Commissioner Nicholas Scoppetta, who headed ACS at the time of the experiments, refused comment.
Officials at ICC, which was established in 1989 to house and care for HIV-infected "boarder babies" left stranded in city hospitals, refused to talk to The Post.

Umphree's McGee - a retrospective
Umphree's McGee (UM) is in line to be the next big thing in the world of jam bands, at least according to their website. Simply put, after the show I saw last night my thoughts on this are, no they're not.
I guess if being the next big thing means borrowing sounds from other successful acts then UM might be it, but if originality is something you appreciate in a band then I suggest you look elsewhere. When I closed my eyes and listened to the music, I was immediately compelled to draw comparisons to some of my other favorite bands. I heard moe., phish, and even a touch of widespread, what I didn't hear was anything new. The one time I thought I was hearing something fresh it was the fire alarm (and they even co-opted that, claiming it to be their "fire alarm jam"). After a brief evacuation, we all returned and they carried on as if nothing had happened.
I've been pretty hard on those UM boys so far. I should say that my head was bouncing and my feet shuffling, there may have even been a "woo" or two that left my mouth. They have a great sound, just that it's not theirs.
For $14 on a Thursday night, sure it might be worth it. But if I had a kid and they we're going on tour with UM, I'd feel obligated to inform them of the real deals out there, to edu-ma-kate them about the people who made the sounds that UM so accurately imitates. They're just imitation jam. I'm leaving it at that.

We Can All Fit in Texas
Driving home:
I thought about the population of the world. And of course everyone knows that it something like, 6,403,537,604 people, as of today. That's right, as of Dec 1st there are now 6,403,537,500 too many people on this planet.
But this is only part of what I thinking. The second part deals with the great state of Texas. The amount of land in Texas, that is land not water, is 261914 sq. mi.. So if you convert the square miles in to square feet that gives you approximately 7286028417600 sqf. Because there are 27818400 sqf in a mile. So if we wanted to put all the people in the world inside of Texas, just Texas, each person could be given approximately 1137 sq feet. Could someone check this math. This is crazy. We can all fit in Texas!
We need shirts made.

Some good lyrics
Oxygen
a song by Willie Mason
I wanna be better than oxygen
So you can breath when you're drowning and weak in the knees
I wanna speak louder than Ritalin for all the children who think they've got a disease
I wanna be cooler than TV for all the kids that are wondering what they're going to be
We can be stronger than bombs if you're singing along and you know that you really believe
We can be richer than industry as long as we know there's things we don't really need
We can speak louder than ignorance coz we speak in silence every time our eyes meet
On and on and on it goes
The world it just keeps spinning
Until I'm dizzy
Time to breathe
So close my eyes and start again anew
I wanna see through all the lies of society, to the reality, happiness is at stake
I wanna hold up my head with dignity, proud of a life where to give means more than to take
I wanna live beyond the modern mentality where paper is all that you're really taught to create
Do you remember the forgotten America? Justice, equality, freedom to every race
Just need to get past all the lies and hypocrisy, make up and hair, to the truth beyond every face
Then look around to all the people you see
How many of them are happy and free?
I know it sounds like a dream but it's the only thing that can get me to sleep at night
I know it's hard to believe but it's easy to see something here isn't right
I know the future looks dark but it's there that the kids of today must carry the light

T.V.-Be-Gone Inspires New Device; C. Rice Missing
The makers of the little, trouble making device, T.V.-Be-Gone, have fueled entrepreneurs across the globe. Early Today, Ownurbox, makers of the flesh eating monkey pet, announced that they are now in "Be-Gone" market. At there corporate headquarters in Paris, France, Jean Leu introduced Ownurbox's newest device, the Bitch-Be-Gone.
Many in the press were skeptic; however, Leu removed their doubts by testing the device. He pointed the device at his lovely wife, and poof she was gone. Phil Materson, reporter for the New Hampshire Gazzette, screamed "Fraud." "Surely this is smoke and mirror," he finished.
Leu reamined firm. He turned on the television that was airing a press conference with the United States power trio; President Bush, Condeliza Rice, And Colin Powell. Leu then said, "Now watch the power of Bitch-Be-Gone." Rice instantly disapeared. Leu then informed the press that orders for Bitch-Be-Gone can be placed at Ownurbox.com.

United States of Ukraine
The results are in, but they don't match the exit polls. First the people cry fowl, then international election monitors confirm their accusitions, there is evidence of widespread fraud, irregularities, whatever you call it, it means the same thing, a "stolen" election. Tens of thousands of the People take to the streets in protests, camping out over night in freezing tempatures to keep their coutry free, demanding that their votes are counted, their voices heard.
Sound familiar? It should, but it most likely does not. These are the events that have been unfolding in the Ukraine over the last day or so. Eeirly similar to our own recent elections, Prime Minister Viktor Yanuknvych and opposition leader Viktor Yuschenko may seem to have very similar names, but they have vastly different ideas on where the future of their country exists.
What's ironic is this quote from from US Senator Richard Lugar, "It is now apparent that a concerted and forceful programme of election-day fraud and abuse was enacted with either the leadership or co-operation of governmental authorities." I understand that he's the chairman of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, but don't you think at least one US Sentator would stand up and voice these very same concerns for our election at home?
Even more, we should learn something from the Ukrainian people. Their democracy is still young, they still care, they have vivid memories of a recent past and they know what is at risk. With estimates of 33,000 cases of voting "irregularities" occuring throughout the US, and provisional ballots still to be counted in the decisive state of Ohio, the majority of Americans have already accepted their fate.
As it's often said, freedom isn't free. So as you settle down for your Thanksgiving feast and you ask youself (and your family) what do you really have to be thankful for this year? A free and fair election? Think again. Living in a democracy? Not for long. That your country is free from widespread social unrest? Well, then you only need to thank yourself for not resisting.
Sound familiar? It should, but it most likely does not. These are the events that have been unfolding in the Ukraine over the last day or so. Eeirly similar to our own recent elections, Prime Minister Viktor Yanuknvych and opposition leader Viktor Yuschenko may seem to have very similar names, but they have vastly different ideas on where the future of their country exists.
What's ironic is this quote from from US Senator Richard Lugar, "It is now apparent that a concerted and forceful programme of election-day fraud and abuse was enacted with either the leadership or co-operation of governmental authorities." I understand that he's the chairman of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, but don't you think at least one US Sentator would stand up and voice these very same concerns for our election at home?
Even more, we should learn something from the Ukrainian people. Their democracy is still young, they still care, they have vivid memories of a recent past and they know what is at risk. With estimates of 33,000 cases of voting "irregularities" occuring throughout the US, and provisional ballots still to be counted in the decisive state of Ohio, the majority of Americans have already accepted their fate.

My pussy's hurt!
Karma was out the other night (not last night when I thought she was lost, a night earlier) and I was going to get her. I tripped over a stupid potter and this scared the shit out of her. She shot of like a dart and tried to make a jump across the corner of the wall in our backyard and missed. It was actually pretty funny to watch.
What's sad is that I think she pulled a muscle or something. She's been really quiet and meows loudly whenever I pick her up. Does this require a visit to the vet or should I just let her walk it off?

How to Stop traffic!
Today, I walked in to an intersection. Six lanes meet from four directions. Over car horns, I heard someone yell from their car, "what the hell are you doing!"
I was definitely at a crossroad. I spun around slowly to examine the faces of the angered drivers. I felt like I was spinning for hours.
Moments before I stepped on to the center of the intersection, I wondered if drivers would stop their cars for me; for little, old me. When I drive, I always see deer on the side of the road. Sometimes, the deer look as if they have spontaneously combustion. Other times, they look serene, as if they slowly fell asleep while wandering the highway; barely making the median, they stop and take a nap.
I wonder why drivers don't stop for the deer. The possibilities are endless. The drivers were probably going to fast and the deer were moving to slow. Maybe, the driver was on the phone, talking to someone about just witnessing a deer falling asleep in the median of the highway just seconds ago. Little did the driver know that the there was another deer ahead. The second deer, the one the driver hit, was probably trying to figure out why the first deer wanted to sleep in the median.
The thought of the deer passed. I realized I wanted to walk dangerously like the deer. I knew the highway could be fatal. The intersection would possibly allow me to maintain my life, if the drivers stopped. And they did. I realized stopping traffic.
