WASHINGTON -- For years, radiation experts at the nation's nuclear weapons sites failed to adequately protect workers from on-the-job hazards. Now, some of those experts are helping run a compensation program for the workers.
The situation has attracted the attention of Congress, with one lawmaker pressing for an investigation into whether the workers are being treated fairly.

I'm more of a biscuit, I think. Perhaps a cookie.
But if the US nukes someone, look for a massive geopolitical realignment. The movers and shakers of other countries will be forced to realign themselves in order to balance (or attempt to balance) the ludicrous US advantage in terms of nuclear weapons. You can expect some ugly financial shit storms at the very least.

I do it because I have an emotional need to do it. I think that in the near future, one will either need to farm for oneself, or belong (as in chattel) to a corporation that will provide some minimum daily rations as part of your "total compensation package."
This isn't so much because I hate corporations, but rather because corporations are feudal, and clearly, 'Merka and much of the rest of the world are slipping backwards into feudalism.
It's sad.

President Bush declassified sensitive intelligence in 2003 and authorized its public disclosure to rebut Iraq war critics, but he did not specifically direct that Vice President Dick Cheney's former chief of staff, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, be the one to disseminate the information, an attorney knowledgeable about the case said Saturday.
Bush merely instructed Cheney to "get it out" and left the details to him, said the lawyer, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the case for the White House. The vice president chose Libby and communicated the president's wishes to his then-top aide, the lawyer said.
But since he told the American people over and over he wanted to know who was behind the leak, I guess he expects people to define for themselves what the meaning of is is.

PAZUZU
* At the beginning of the book and film The Exorcist (1973), when Father Merrin (Max Von Sydow) is at the site of an archaelogical dig in Northern Iraq, the figure that threatens him — seemingly an illusion — is Pazuzu, whom he had battled many years earlier. Later, when he is appointed to perform the exorcism on Regan (Linda Blair), he suspects it is Pazuzu that possesses her. The 1977 sequel also deals with Pazuzu.
* A prequel, The Exorcist: The Beginning 2004, deals with Father Merrin's earlier battle with Pazuzu in 1949 in East Africa, with Stellan Skarsgård as Father Merrin.
* The name or figure of Pazuzu is also referenced in a number of other fictional works, see Pazuzu (disambiguation) for further information.
* There are several heavy metal bands named Pazuzu.
* In an episode of Futurama ([4ACV09] - 'Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles'), Pazuzu is the name of a Gargoyle owned by the Professor Farnsworth.

jack is a veritable treasure trove of Bushco blastfax lies. Hasn't said a truth yet this evening, not one. Bush's leadership is the wame brand as Hitler's and will bring about a similar result for him, with any luck. Except if he offs himself it'll probably be with a pretzel while riding a segway.
