Forced blood tests allowed to stand
I am absolutely appalled. Forcing a suspect to involuntarily submit blood, breath, urine, or any other bodily substance is not only a violation of the 4th Amendment, but tantamount even more a 5th amendment violation!

U.N. disaster alert for megacities
And once again magnitude is a result of overpopulation.

Jealous Sex Party Swinger Jailed for Stabbing Pregnant Girlfriend
I don't understand how this idiot didn't realize that his girlfriend was gonna get porked by someone else's schwantzl when the started the orgy!

AAS Endorses Hubble Options Report
Duh! The HST was specifically designed for servicing with the shuttle's capabilities in mind. If Hubble is too unsafe for the shuttle, then no manned mission is ever viable.

Titan Success Raises Curtain On Big Year In Space
Funny, I'm just not impressed with the upcoming year in space.

Nigeria has no ambition to be nuclear power: Obasanjo
The IAEA's mandate includes eradication of tse-tse flys and mosquitoes? What the fuck!

Well that went easy, and remember- no news is good nuus!

Services, parades honor Martin Luther King
Amazingly Martin Luther King Day remains one of the most misunderstood national holidays in America. Sure Reagan signed it into law, but nobody ever told us how to officially celebrate it. What holds deep meaning in our minority community should hold the same for all. Sure there was a few parades, services, maybe a few marches, and some places were closed while others cling to ignoring it completely. It can be a rally for the ignorant white trash who refuse to take the day off, idiots! But my core point is that we, as a nation, don't have a tradition around this holiday yet. This leaves some at home, some at work, some at church, and me like a lonely puppy outside the closed liquor store. It's too bloody cold to march in January, church was yesterday [for some of you], parades are hokey, there's no sports events on [for the meatheads], can't send post cards with the USPS shut down, and there's no mindless shopping for the broads. What we need is somebody, well anybody to come out and spell it out, light a grille, set off some fireworks, hell make the day about community service and volunteerism! Just so I know what the hell I'm supposed to be doing other than sittin' at home drinkin' beer watchin’ old black-n-white footage of the civil rights movement on the History channel [with just a splash of Hitler? what's that about] 'cuz I forgot to stock up on rum on Saturday! What Martin Luther said and did he did for all of us, but the holiday doesn't seem to be living up to the dream.

Poll: Americans divided over Iraq invasion
Speaking of the History channel, they aired 'The Horrors of Hussein' today, A one-hour documentary on the torture, mass executions, terror, chemical weapons use, and wars of Saddam. It was more like a video outline when you think of more than a million dead the Iran-Iraq war and the half-million Iraqis in mass graves all over Iraq. Then there are the still suffering and mutilated from his chemical strikes and those destroyed by dehumanizing torture. I defy anyone to watch such a brief glimpse of his atrocities and say we shouldn't have removed him. If there is a lesson from history it is that we should have finished what we started back in '91! No one ever said the right thing to do was easy! We stand in the breach and we must not flinch. Would you rather have America's best fight the terrorist fanatics over there, or would you prefer to stick your head in the sand and have soccer moms and rent-a-cops fight them in a Jersey mall? That's the choices, cuz they are coming either way. Personally I prefer to have Iraq as a lightning rod for all these suicidal zealots well away on the other side of the globe and facing our best. If they're making IEDs over there to hit our armor they’re not making pipe bombs over here to blow up SUVs [or learning how to fly a jumbo jet]. Bush was right '...bring it on!'

FCC fears force Fox to pixelate cartoon nudity
US TV cuts nudity from BBC film
Alright, now I'm pissed! If a bare-assed Stewie is offensive then I don't wanna see any more babies, births, or caesarians on Discovery channel. Just watch one of those and you'll never be a completely sexually free man again! That's psychologically damaging dammit! Gimme Family Guy any day over that shit! I urge everyone to write the FCC and urge them to give FOX a pass on Family Guy. Self-censorship is un-American and should be discouraged by patriotic groups such as when the fine people at Ad Council condemned post 9/11 library censorship. I urge you to familiarize yourselves with both sites.

Pentagon spurned plan for enemy aphrodisiac
US laboratory proposed weapon to stimulate homosexual behavior
$7.5 million to promote gays in enemy militaries? Homosexuality only bolstered the morale of the Spartans and greater Greek armies. With a shortage of women in parts of China with 1:20 ratios do we really want to consider helping them cross that line? I thought Nixon outlawed the US chemical arsenal? A chemical attack is a chemical attack whether VX or gay spray!

FDA debates OTC morning-after pill
The Institute and our subsidiaries 100% wholeheartedly backs anything that gives people options, choices, and safety in their sexual lives.

Iran Nobel winner's rights call
Can she become the nexus of the Iranian counterrevolution?

EU considers Nazi symbols ban
Great! They do this and they'll have to cut the old Monty Python skits! If the great Mel Brooks can dress up as Hitler everyone knows it is satire. Harry was just attending a tasteless aristocal costume party. All Europe's aristocracies have reviled in their dirty secret little historic roll playing games for centuries. It's their ego-fetish. Blaming the symbols of Hitler's Nazism and hiding them don't undo the past. The darkness must be faced and discussed openly by each generation lest we forget the lessons! Deconstructing history cannot spare us from the cold truth. Like it or not, Hitler was just a man, most Germans were Nazi, many in occupied Europe were collaborators and many joined the SS. Political correctness and blinders do not dull the unpleasant fact that the capacity for such heinous evil is a part of the human condition and a foible we all carry.

Columbia Crew Catches A Mysterious TIGER In The Indian Ocean
Is this actually data from the ill-fated Columbia flight?

Walker's World: The New World Order
I find nothing to argue with here. Our economic hypocrisy and failure to consolidate the post cold war opportunities have lead us to the brink of a multi-polar American containment world.

Purged Chinese leader dies
A stark reminder to those who would lift the arms embargo and join the PRC in a multi-polar syndicate of what happens to dissidents in China.

Israel orders crackdown; PLO calls for end to violence
What a great way to move forward with the new Palestinian Authority, by showing them that Sharon is boss. What a warpig!

Abbas sworn in as seven Palestinians die
Now that alleged obstructionist Arafat is outta the way Sharon is without a scapegoat.

Journalist: U.S. planning for possible attack on Iran
US conducting military operations inside Iran: report
Like I said before, Iran is next on the butcher's block. It would be irresponsible for the Pentagon if it did not draw up contingency war plans against every nation with WMD, friend and foe alike.

Nail embedded in man's skull for 6 days
Yeast!

Expatriate Iraqi voters can register Monday
It's all good... Vote Quimby!

Police: Girl died after mother forced her to drink bleach
This is one of the enraging stories that brought me back to the Blog. What this woman has done is beyond heinous. Dig your hole, bitch, and get buried alive by the next death sentenced freak in the line!

Hitler 'ordered pope kidnapped'
See... Hitler wanted the Pope eaten, er kidnapped so how could you say he turned a blind eye to the Holocaust? Hitler didn't like Stalin either, that don't make Joe Steel a saint. I wonder what other convenient spins will come outta the Vatican archives to justify the foregone sainthood of Pius XII.

Man Tries Selling Soul To Recoup Scam Loss
Just the kinda idiot that keeps the Devil-plumber in business. I guess Steve'll have to break and get that computer.

Many Iraqis say Graner sentence too lenient
Concur. What ever happened to the iron of martial law?

'World's oldest mother'... at 67
Yick! This is an abomination against nature and an abuse of fertility treatment. These doctors shouldn't be hailed, they should be held accountable for the stillborn twin, the health impact on the elderly [and incompetent] mother, upbringing of this girl who will probably be orphaned before adulthood. Are there no Hippocratic guidelines to stem the rampant fertility abuses in our world?

Russian obesity is comparable to American
We have so much to learn from our Russian friends...

A victory for the sexual majority!

South City man gets 4 years for sex with cousin
Pappy-cousin-daddy-lover? Sounds like a tale from Rock Glen!

Woman's acupuncture treatment goes bust
Oopsie! Buyer beware! I say for her stupidity she should have to go around with a flat for a while. Don't they educate anyone anymore? Hell, I wonder how much her automotive blinker fluid bill tabs at yearly!

Scientists Ecstatic At Result Of Titan Probe
Huygens did it! Now I just have to get a record of Bone to Titan and it'll be ready for colonization!

Russia To Launch German Satellites
The EU centrists once again are trying to leverage away from the American alliance with redundant capabilities.

RaySat Introduces Antenna For In-Motion High Speed Digital Access
With a name like RaySat it's gotta be a line item in the Institute’s budget!

Japan presses Israel to stop arms sales in Far East
It's so polite of the Japanese not to call China by name.

Japan maps plan to defend southern islands against military attack: report
But we know who their worried about...

Taiwan deploys missiles on mobile launchers: report
And just for the record Taiwan is still worried about the PRC's intentions.

Foreign forces can stay in Indonesia past deadline: defence minister
I'd call Sudarsono's quote calling the US military's presents in Aceh "the backbone of the logistical operations, providing assistance to all afflicted" the backpedal of the week!

Cassini-Huygens Nasa site
Well whadduya know, NASA finally got the site back up, three days late! But the ESA had their eyes on the ball.

I guess this ends another belated update here at the Institute. I don't know when we'll be back, just hang tough kiddies.
