"I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat"

Two Chinese diplomats, away from their Los Angeles consulate improperly, recently sped their vehicle past a Los Alamos National Laboratory guard post near classified facilities in what U.S. officials think was an intelligence mission, The Washington Times has learned.

I'm getting severe weather beginning to come into my area. Be back later, I hope.

[Letitring]

Thanks, so much. I think between the closely hanging trees and the compressors, I've gotten an answer. You've no idea how much I appreciate it.

Leftist pap. America is a moral country. We enjoy peace because we insist on remaining militarily powerful and moral. The peacenik Japanese leftists think you can have peace without the ability to repel attacks by immoral criminals. They are foolish and wrong.

[Jill St Claire]

My site will be down until tomorrow afternoon FYI

What do you make of this...

Bush Mentions Plan for a Free Cuba at Florida Fundraiser

He declared the fight for freedom shouldn't be isolated to the Middle East; it should also focus on our own back yard. Bush outlined his future policy on Cuba with two words, "Cuba Libre" [Free Cuba], drawing raucous applause and chants of "Viva Bush" from the crowd.

There is a real heavy thunderstorm cell in the middle of the state. Keep your head down!

[Letitring]

(that particular storm went South of me)

Jill, I was just over there! Sounds serious, are you okay? Is there anything we can do to help?

[Letitring]

Yes, it's nasty all around. I'll have to pop on and off as necessary. :(

Storm is tracking northeast. Following I-59. Major cell northwest of Biloxi. Another one is tracking north off the gulf coast. Should come onshore east of Biloxi.

Hum, y'all, looks like the Yellowstone area has those little 1-2 magnitude quakes just quivering along. Find info here:

I would think that a dollar mistake in silver prices would be about a 20% drop in price and that is enough to cause people to look at their plans for investment.

That mistake could have made a lot of money for someone, about a 20% return on the money. (I think, as this isn't an area that I know a lot about.)

Dumb me, I thought that the money was in the ground and that I should go and find a vein to mine the silver and gold from, wasn't smart enough to know that more money would be made buying and selling the finished product.

It could be an honest mistake, but the odds are that it is deliberate.

If you want to waste a few minutes, do a google for:

find the hacker

what is a hacker

or something like that and you will be in for a surprise, I did it a few months ago and found that if I had the knowledge and desire, it wouldn't be hard to break any program or site.

Anyone know anything about this..

SAN FRANCISCO - A broken pipeline has spilled as much as 1 million gallons of diesel fuel into Suisun Bay, which feeds into San Francisco Bay. The petroleum pipeline owned by Kinder-Morgan ruptured Wednesday and spilled the fuel into wetlands around Suisun Bay, said March Merchant, a spokesman for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (news - web sites). Emergency response teams are trying to clean up as much of the spill as possible in the area about 25 miles northeast of San Francisco.

Jill's site was just struck with 60,000 hits or so.

[KylaStarr]

Interesting...wonder what struck some nerves?

[thecabal]

Sounds like a denial of service attack.

[Jill St Claire]

Thanks, but it is worked out....Some things will be changing on the site, less pictures, no Java, I am adding a comment area (in real time), and a few other things. Some jerks tried to knock me offline by slamming me with excessive hits which ate up my bandwidth, but that problem was taken care of.

Betcha a buck it was someone named Mohammed.

Just got on, trying to check up.

Re- May 1st- I believe May Day is a significant date for the commies of the world. Jill had posted some information on her site indicating the jihadis would attempt to hit us 2 days after "a significant day for Communists." So I was guessing May 3rd.

A "no-war community" is a lovely idea but have they cleared this with the islamic community?
