I don't about the health reasons but whatever the reason, I'm in total agreement with the rest of what you said. My hubby and I have been talking about it for months!

What type of health reasons do you suspect?

It sure is quiet today!

[Indie]

Should this happen, Hitlery will have to govern from Mt Weather. It will be the only safe place.

[null and void]

Anything from his cancer flaring up to full blown Arkancide. Doesn't really matter exactly what does it?

Too quiet. Earthquake weather quiet. Calm before the storm quiet.

Anyone find out why the mosques had hugh turnout this week???

[null and void]

She'd be happy with that. Her in Mt. Weather, the peasants starving in rags.

Yeah. That would work for her...

Boaters rescued by E.P. Fire Department

Donna Kenny Kirwan 05/22/2004

EAST PROVIDENCE -- Four men who were stranded in a disabled motor boat on Narragansett Bay Thursday night were rescued safely by the East Providence Fire Department.

An East Providence Fire Department spokesman said that around 8 p.m., an emergency call came in from one of the men on a cell phone to report that the small vessel had lost its power and was drifting. The boaters said they thought they were near the Pomham Lighthouse, but they were actually much further south, near Bristol, said the spokesman.

According to the spokesman, a language barrier, plus darkness and fog hampered the search.

However, approximately 30 to 40 minutes later, the East Providence Fire Department's rescue team located the lost boaters and towed them to Lavins' Marina in Barrington. No one was injured.

The Fire Department declined to identify the men.

The East Providence Harbormaster and a rescue boat from the Cranston Fire Department joined in the rescue efforts.

Kakebeka Falls (Canada) Incident Attracts U.S Security Attention
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1140834/posts

An incident in Kakabeka Falls last month has apparently caught the attention of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the F.B.I.

ABC News reports that the arrest of two people driving a van loaded 12 drums of red phosphorous has caused concern because of fears of a new terror attack in the U.S. The chemical is highly incendiary, and ABC says American authorities have reports a spectacular attack may be planned for sometime before the Presidential election this fall.

Thunder Bay Police charged a man and a woman only for violations of the Dangerous Goods Act. Police spokesperson Chris Adams says it's an ongoing drug investigation, since red phosphorous can be used to make Speed. He says U.S. officials have not contacted Thunder Bay, but may have picked up on the case through Interpol.

ABC reports the two people arrested here were Muslims, and that they claimed they were paid $4500 to drive the phosphorous to the U.S. Adams says that in fact, they said they were paid to drive the van to Toronto. They were released with a court appearance set for July.

Does anyone know why we bring this stuff to the US and don't get rid of it over there?

More Nuclear Materials Arrive at Y-12


Leaders at Y-12 confirm they have safely received another shipment of nuclear equipment from Libya.

This comes with the Department of Energy still being questioned about its response and care for a radioactive leak on Highway 95 last week.

Back in January, the National Security Complex received its first shipment of nuclear materials as part of Libya's disarmament program. In March, the government showed off the initial load.

No details have been released concerning the latest shipment.

Long but interesting read. At the local convenience store, we have an Indian that owns it. Last year he went on vacation to the UN (go figure.) When he came back I asked him what was the latest news. He said, " Bush will get Bin Laden 2 weeks before the election!" Wait and see:)



Washington is scrambling to react. Last month, U.S. News has learned, the CIA began a massive effort to pull operatives from around the world and redeploy them to Afghanistan and Pakistan, where al Qaeda's base of operations is still believed to be. "We think that's where the best effort can be made," says a U.S. counterterrorism official." The CIA declined to comment, but intelligence sources say the agency is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to recruit more Arabic and Pashto speakers; agency officials hope they will be able to corroborate signals traffic and intelligence from human sources with information from the al Qaeda computers and databases. "They want hard data," says an intelligence source familiar with the CIA's recruiting efforts, "and that's tough as hell to get."

This is the story I was so curious about yesterday. They dummies said they didn't think it was related to terrrorism because they were not driving it to the US. Now we find out they were muslim??? WTF?

[freeperfromnj]

Does that mean they found to devices? Similar to one spray painted black placed along the tracks?

That's how I interpreted it.
