Snooker champ accused of Rape
Nine MSN | Submitted by: Scarecrow
Say it ain't so -- Quinten Hann, one of the top snooker champions in Australia,
is accused of raping a woman at London's Savoy Hotel. He is out on bail
"after District Judge Mr Nicholas Evans was told that remanding him in custody
would not only reduce his income but could threaten his world No.25 ranking and
his snooker career."

They will know where you were
Guardian | Submitted by: Soylent
It's well known that if you have a cellular phone, your location can be
pinpointed fairly accurately. But now it's been revealed that since 1999,
Virgin (a cell UK telephone provider) has been keeping records of the
locations of the phones -- forever. Which means that they can track your
whereabouts over that span of time, who who you visit, where you go, how
often you potty, etc. Big Corporate is Watching You.

McVeigh connected to Iraqi Extremists?
Insight | Submitted by: Mr. Ramon
Excellent article exploring the possibility that the White supremacists and
other domestic extremists within the United States may have strong ties to Iraq
and other Muslim terrorist organizations. One focus of the article is on Tim
McVeigh and Terry Nichols, who supposedly worked alone in planning the Oklahoma
City bombing. "Ramzi Yousef was in the Philippines at the same time as Nichols
and visited the same city out of which the Oklahoma City bombing was planned. I
doubt that connection ever was pursued." Yousef is currently in prison for
the first WTC bombing in 1993.

Operation Northwoods
American Politics | Submitted by: D Fulmer
"A plan, crafted in exquisite detail, was drafted describing the scope of
Operation Northwoods, and was later signed in approval by all of the Joint
Chiefs. Citizens would be shot in the streets. Boats of Cuban refugees would be
sunk on the high seas. Bombings would be perpetrated within Washington D.C. and
Miami. There were even plans to fake the hijacking, and later the destruction,
of a civilian aircraft."

Inuit coffins erupting from rest
Washington Post | Submitted by: Soylent
"Here on Herschel Island, a windy mound of land off the north-western tip of
Canada, graves are pushing up from the ground as the ice within the carpet of
permafrost melts, spitting up foreign contents, sending whole hill slopes
sliding downward. On a far tip of this island an entire grave site one day got
up and slipped into the sea."
