This statement really bothers me. It makes me suspicious of the son's motives. If he doesn't criticize his father, it's almost like he's endorsing all of the pain and destruction that has been caused by him.Omar doesn't criticize his father and says Osama bin Laden is just trying to defend the Islamic world.Comment

Convert your car to run on Water and save thousands of dollars every year.
Over 90 years ago certain scientists such as Nikola Tesla understood that water is the most powerful and the cheapest source of energy. Some scientists proved the system works amazingly well but for political and other unknown reasons the system never went into the development stage.
Recently FOX News broadcasted a video report about an American car enthusiast who was able to replicate the system or maybe "reinvent the wheel" - call it as you like but this driver was able to convert his car to run on water. While many drivers are quite skeptical about the whole idea - this particular driver and thousands of others enjoy the increase of gas mileage they are able to get with this simple Hydrogen-on-demand system.
Many decide to use this system because it will cost you less than 200$ to convert your car to run on water in comparison of buying a hybrid car for over 17,000$.
The system gives your car a 15%-20% power boost - something a hybrid car can't offer. The system also reduces the noise of the engine and just like an official hybrid car allows you to get an IRS Refund - even more money into your pocket.
When you convert your car to run on water - you increase gas mileage of the car by up to 100% - that means DOUBLE the mileage, in rare case an increase of over 100% were reported. The Hydrogen on demand systems makes your engine runs quieter and smoother which also results in the reduction of vibration - so smoother gear shafting. When using water, you also reduce your engine's wear and tear and you increase the motor's longevity.
The Hydrogen-on-demand system is not only popular for its efficiency and easy installation but also for an easy and untraceable removal. The system does not change your vehicle's engine or computer, so if you ever decide that you don't want this system, you can unhook it in less than a minute and your car is just as it was - but cleaner.
Thousands of happy drivers converted their cars to use the Hydrogen-on-demand system. Click here to find out how to EASILY convert your car!Comment

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's armed forces chief said on Saturday Moscow could use nuclear arms pre-emptively if under serious threat, his comments marking no change in defense policy but underlining a renewed military confidence.
ADVERTISEMENT
Interfax news agency quoted Chief of Staff Yuri Baluyevski as saying also that Russia, rebuilding defenses under President Vladimir Putin after the decline of the immediate post-Soviet years, must guard against "excessive militarization" of society.
He said Russia was not going to attack anyone.
"But we believe all our partners in the international community should understand clearly and have no doubts that in order to protect its and its allies' sovereignty and territorial integrity, Russia will use its armed forces, including nuclear weapons, and it can do it pre-emptively," he told a scientific conference in Moscow.
In Soviet times, military doctrine stated Moscow would not use nuclear arms first in any confrontation with the West. With the decline of its conventional forces in the 1990s, Moscow dropped this element of its policy.
President Vladimir Putin, who signed a new doctrine into force in 2000 as acting president, must step down after an election in March likely to be won by his choice of successor, First Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.
Western analysts will be looking for any changes of nuance in defense and other policy, though Putin is expected to maintain strong influence.
Moscow is currently at odds with the West over U.S. plans to develop a missile defense shield it fears could make it vulnerable to U.S. missile attack. It also resists Western moves that could lead soon to the breakaway of the Kosovo region of Russian ally SerbiaComment

The US Supreme Court on Friday granted certiorari in six cases , including Crawford v. Nashville and Davidson Cty., TN (06-1595), in which the Supreme Court will consider whether Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act protects a government employee against being fired for cooperating with an internal sexual harassment probe against a superior. A payroll employee in the Nashville school system was interviewed as part of an investigation into harassment claims against a high-ranking official in the system; she alleges that the official later fired her in retaliation for her statements against him. The US Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit dismissed the lawsuit , ruling that Title VII protections did not extend to the employee because she was not the originator of the sexual harassment claims being investigated.
In Wyeth v. Levine (06-1249) , the Court will consider whether Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of a drug's warning label protects its manufacturer from liability when a patient has a bad reaction to the drug that forces her arm to be amputated. The Vermont Supreme Court ruled that FDA approval does not shield the maker from liability, because states can require additional warnings above and beyond those required by federal regulations.
In Altria Group v. Good (07-562) , the Court will consider whether the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act bars state lawsuits based on allegedly deceptive cigarette advertising. A federal judge originally dismissed a suit brought by three Maine smokers who accused Philip Morris of presenting light cigarettes as less harmful than they really are, but the US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit reinstated the case [. AP has more.
In MetLife v. Glenn , the Court will consider whether an employee benefit plan administrator has an illegal conflict of interest under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act if he has both the authority to pay benefits and to determine employees' eligibility for benefits. The US Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit ruled that the administrator did have a potential conflict of interest.
In Meacham v. Knolls Atomic Power Lab. , the Court will consider whether a worker or an employer has the burden of proof in an age discrimination case where a worker says he was fired for no valid reason. The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit held that the burden of proof rests on the worker.
Finally, in Summers v. Earth Island Institute (07-463) , the Court will consider whether a group of environmentalists can sue to have a Forest Service regulation struck down or if they are limited only to suing to end programs enacted under that regulation. The US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit held that the environmentalists could sue against the regulation itself.Comment

A federal judge in Los Angeles who was reprimanded for official misconduct last year could face a harsher punishment -- or be cleared of the charges altogether -- after a ruling this week by a panel of fellow judges.
The ruling by the Judicial Conference Committee on Judicial Conduct and Disability in Washington, D.C., came in the case of U.S. District Court Judge Manuel L. Real.
Real was given a private reprimand last year, after the judicial council of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco determined that he had "engaged in a pattern and practice of not providing reasons for his decisions when required to do so."
Embattled civil rights attorney Stephen Yagman, who filed the complaint against Real, asked the Judicial Conference Committee to review the case, arguing that the reprimand was an insufficient punishment.
On Monday, the five-judge panel granted Yagman's request and ordered the 9th Circuit judicial council to reconsider the case.
If his conduct is found to be willful, the 9th Circuit panel should "consider a more severe sanction, such as a public censure or reprimand and an order that no further cases be assigned to the judge for a particular period of time," the judicial committee ruled.
Yagman, a pugnacious lawyer who made a career of suing the Los Angeles Police Department and other law enforcement agencies, was convicted in June 2007 of tax evasion, money laundering and bankruptcy fraud, and faces three years in federal prison.Comment

Hi Mrs. B.: I'm surprised that you seemed so surprised to hear about the concept of a car running on ordinary tap water. For nearly 40 years now, there's a Filipino scientist named Engr. Daniel Dingel whose exact same invention is still fighting for recognition that is buried through the maze of a helpless Philippine government at the mercy of big oil. And just recently, yet another young Filipino engineer, Glenn Castillo, made the same pursuit.Comment

The only way for Bin Laden to be stopped is either one very close to him betrays him for a huge sum of cash and fame or he turns himself in. The Tora Bora region si his refuge where local tribal leaders hid and protect him from Pakistani security forces. It is a very difficult and dangerous region which no amount of US firepower will capture him.Originally posted by Mrs. B.:
I've seen firsthand the effects of the mindless and heartless acts of these terrorists who go about bombing Manila. They are trying to show power and rebellion against the US (and the Philippine government which is allied with the US in the war against terrorism by killing civilians.
These terrorists must be stopped! (I just wonder though why Bin Laden isn't captured despite the high price tag on his head and with the CIA working on this case?)"Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."

BOSTON - More than two decades ago, Frank Enwonwu got caught smuggling five ounces of heroin into the United States from his homeland in Nigeria. He admitted his mistake and readily agreed to work as an informant, believing the U.S. had promised to keep him safe.
ADVERTISEMENT
He went on to pursue his share of the American dream, driving a cab and training as a nurse's aide "” until a change in law in 1996 retroactively made him liable to be deported for his drug conviction, despite his work to help the government.
Now, he weeps in a room at a homeless shelter he shares with his 13-year-old son, fearful that any day he could be sent back to Nigeria to be tortured or killed as drug dealers with long memories seek retribution for his work as an informant.
"Trust me, no one there has forgotten what I did "” even after 22 years. I'll be killed there before I even have the ability to see daylight," he said.
Enwonwu, 58, has spent about five of the last 11 years in detention while fighting his deportation order. His legal appeals all but exhausted, he now is asking to be spared on humanitarian grounds.
"I have a little boy who did not grow up with me because of all the time I have spent in detention. He needs me," said Enwonwu, who is separated from his wife and has custody of the teen.
Enwonwu is under a final deportation order and could be taken into custody and deported without notice.
"This is a man who assisted the United States government as an informant, helping them prosecute drug-related crimes, and in so doing, he has put his life at complete risk. We believe that creates an obligation on the part of the United States to protect him," said Meetali Jain, an attorney at the American University Washington College of Law International Human Rights Law Clinic.
Enwonwu admits he committed a crime when he brought drugs into the United States, but claims he was tricked by a Nigerian military officer who offered to buy him a plane ticket if he would show the man around Boston, where he had attended Tufts University in the 1970s.
The night of their flight, Enwonwu said, other military officers ordered him to carry two packets of heroin. He was arrested at Boston's Logan International Airport after Customs officials found the drug.
Within hours of his arrest, Enwonwu said, federal drug agents asked him to participate in a sting to catch the dealers who were to come to Boston from New York to pick up the heroin. Enwonwu agreed, and two men were arrested. Their boss in Ohio was also prosecuted. All three were from Nigeria.
In the mid-1980s, Nigeria had become a major transit point for Asian heroin and South American cocaine being smuggled to Europe and North America. The transit networks expanded and became highly organized, prompting U.S. pressure on Nigerian authorities to crack down on the trade, which Nigerian police say frequently involves gang killings.
Enwonwu worked for the Drug Enforcement Administration for 10 months, providing the names of suspected drug dealers in Nigeria who U.S. officials believed were running drugs to the United States themselves or through couriers. He also supplied the names of Nigerians living in the United States who he had learned were involved with drugs.
Enwonwu said the DEA promised him he would not be deported and would be protected from the drug dealers he had ratted on.
"They knew how dangerous the drug lords in Nigeria were and they told me I wasn't going back to Nigeria," Enwonwu said. "Based on that promise, I continued my cooperation with them."
The DEA acknowledges it paid him $1,600 for his work as an informant, but Herbert Lemon Jr., the DEA agent who Enwonwu claims made the promises, said he never told Enwonwu he would not be deported.
"Absolutely not. I (didn't) have the authority to do it," Lemon, who is now retired from the DEA, told The Associated Press. "That just didn't happen."
Lemon said he did tell federal prosecutors that Enwonwu had cooperated, which the agent believes spared Enwonwu from serving jail time. He got a suspended sentence and probation on the heroin charge.
"I think that's the benefit he received for his helping the government," Lemon said.
Lemon said he feels badly for Enwonwu's wife and son who may be left behind in the United States, but said he does not fault the U.S. government for now moving to deport Enwonwu.
"He committed a criminal act, and as such, he has to face the consequences," he said.
Enwonwu came close to being spared deportation in 2005, when U.S. District Judge William Young found the government had a "constitutional duty" to protect Enwonwu.
"The Constitution simply cannot permit (the government) to endanger the life of an alien, promise to protect him, and then cast him aside like refuse when he is no longer useful," Young wrote.
However, Young was unable to issue a ruling in the case because a federal law, the REAL ID Act, made it more difficult for immigrants to get amnesty and also stripped federal district courts of jurisdiction in deportation cases.
Since that ruling, repeated efforts to have Enwonwu's deportation order reversed by a federal appeals court have failed.
Enwonwu claims that while working for the DEA, he also worked as an informant for the Immigration and Naturalization Service, the predecessor agency to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Paula Grenier, a spokeswoman for ICE, declined to comment on Enwonwu's appeal or his claim that he worked for ICE.
"The case has been presented to both administrative and judicial courts, and the matter has been decided upon by a judge," Grenier said. "The next step in his case is his removal from the U.S."Comment

I did hear about it! That's why I was so interested with this article! I don't really remember the name (but thanks, I will check out those links that you provided) and I don't know if it was really true! That story seemed to have turned into some sort of urban myth or something, probably because it sounds too good to be true...
Now I'm curious, how come you know so much about the Phil.?
Turning to another topic, would you know how to mark a discussion, or flag it (like in yahoo mails) since there are lots of threads going on here and sometimes, it just gets buried with all the new posts/problems that come out? Thanks!Do all the good you can, in all the ways you can, as long as ever you can.
