| “Keep your mouth shut or we’ll take you out.” |
| 06.29.05 (12:29 pm) [edit] |
Joe Cicchese, a witness quoted in a recent story in the MadCowMorningNews was threatened with his life in a brief but chilling 4.30 a.m. phone call from 53-year old Sam Koutchesfahani, with whom he hadn’t spoken since they worked together 10 years ago in a San Diego-area motel.
In a voicemail message, Cicchese sounded clearly frightened. “Hi Daniel this is Joe Cicchese, I’m sure you remember the name…I just got a phone call which I have to admit has kind of rattled me to the core, and I recognized the voice as our buddy, threatening to take me out if I didn’t keep my mouth shut.”

| Japanese nuclear data leaked on Net after virus attack |
| 06.26.05 (6:47 pm) [edit] |
|
Confidential data for several Japanese nuclear plants was leaked on to the internet when a worker's computer loaded with file-swapping software was attacked by a virus, a company said yesterday.
The Japanese government said it was investigating whether the data included sensitive information on nuclear materials.
Mitsubishi Electric Industrial Co said the information 44 megabytes of files containing inspection forms, reports and manuals used from 2003 to this year probably appeared on the Net some time after March, but company officials weren't aware of the leak until Wednesday.

| Shroud of Turin "a fake" |
| 06.22.05 (10:53 am) [edit] |
A French magazine said on Tuesday it had carried out experiments that proved the Shroud of Turin, believed by some Christians to be their religion's holiest relic, was a fake.
"A mediaeval technique helped us to make a Shroud," Science & Vie (Science and Life) said in its July issue.
The Shroud is claimed by its defenders to be the cloth in which the body of Jesus Christ was wrapped after his crucifixion.

| Your ISP as Net watchdog |
| 06.17.05 (4:32 pm) [edit] |
The US Department of Justice is quietly shopping around the explosive idea of requiring Internet service providers to retain records of their customers' online activities.
Data retention rules could permit police to obtain records of e-mail chatter, Web browsing or chat-room activity months after Internet providers ordinarily would have deleted the logs -- that is, if logs were ever kept in the first place. No US law currently mandates that such logs be kept.
In theory, at least, data retention could permit successful criminal and terrorism prosecutions that otherwise would have failed because of insufficient evidence. But privacy worries and questions about the practicality of assembling massive databases of customer behavior have caused a similar proposal to stall in Europe and could engender stiff opposition domestically.

| 06.17.05 (4:21 pm) [edit] |
SETI scientists are taking notice of the latest discovery of a "Super-Earth" beyond the solar system as they fine-tune their list of stars to target in their search for extraterrestrial intelligence.
With the recent announcement of a planet seven to eight times the Earth’s mass circling an M dwarf star, the chances for habitable worlds seem greater than ever.

| Canadian spy agency's staff, budget raised |
| 06.13.05 (12:21 pm) [edit] |
Canada's secret eavesdropping agency is undergoing its biggest expansion in decades as it takes on a greater role in the fight against terrorism.
The clandestine Communications Security Establishment, a wing of the Defence Department that snoops on foreign conversations and messages, has made its primary mission the countering of dangerous extremists.
Staff levels at the Ottawa-based CSE are expected to jump to 1,650 from about 950 before the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States by Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda network. The spy agency's annual budget will reach $220-million by 2007-08, a 57 per cent increase over levels before the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

| Former Bush team member says WTC collapse likely a controlled demolition |
| 06.13.05 (12:18 pm) [edit] |
A former chief economist in the Labor Department during President Bush's first term now believes the official story about the collapse of the WTC is "bogus," saying it is more likely that a controlled demolition destroyed the Twin Towers and adjacent Building No. 7.
"If demolition destroyed three steel skyscrapers at the World Trade Center on 9/11, then the case for an 'inside job' and a government attack on America would be compelling," said Morgan Reynolds, Ph.D, a former member of the Bush team who also served as director of the Criminal Justice Center at the National Center for Policy Analysis headquartered in Dallas, TX.
Reynolds, now a professor emeritus at Texas A&M University, also believes it's "next to impossible" that 19 Arab Terrorists alone outfoxed the mighty US military, adding the scientific conclusions about the WTC collapse may hold the key to the entire mysterious plot behind 9/11.

| Secret nuclear waste disposal sites revealed |
| 06.10.05 (5:25 am) [edit] |
The highly sensitive shortlist of 12 sites where the UK nuclear industry wanted to dispose of its dangerous radioactive waste has been unveiled after being kept a closely guarded state secret for more than 15 years.
Although the list was drawn up in the late 1980's, some of the sites are likely to become candidates for waste disposal again in the future. For this reason, the release of the list is likely to reignite the ferocious debate over nuclear waste disposal.

| Israeli soldiers have sound weapons |
| 06.06.05 (8:03 pm) [edit] |
The Israeli army has unveiled a new crowd-dispersal device which emits painful bursts of sound at a special frequency to help break up demonstrations.
Israeli military officials have confirmed soldiers used the "non-lethal" tactic in the West Bank village of Bilin, to break up a crowd soldiers thought were turning ugly.
According to Aljazeera the device was stored on a truck about a quarter mile from the demonstration.
