Governor Rounds passes on taking abortion stand

The Rapid City Journal:

"Mindful of the extreme nature of the law that he signed into existence a week ago, Gov. Rounds seems even more befuddled about how he stands on this thing. His signature tells me that he supports the law, yet his utterances indicate otherwise. His pro-life position has always been tempered with his willingness to make rape and incest exceptions, but he signed this law just the same. Why?

Neutrino Rush

The Rapid City Journal

Harlan: Welcome to the great neutrino rush of '06
By Bill Harlan, Journal Staff Writer

Physics giant Wolfgang Pauli told a friend in 1930, "I have done something very bad today."

Pauli's sin was "proposing a particle that cannot be detected," which he lamented "is something no theorist should ever do." Three years later, Enrico Fermi christened Pauli's ghost particle the "neutrino."

William Rivers Pitt | Setting the Record Straight

William Rivers Pitt | Setting the Record Straight

This administration thinks it can set the record straight with a page on their web site? Now that's funny. If the record were indeed ever made truly straight, if all the lies that have been told to such bloody and costly effect were presented before an empowered investigation or inside a courtroom, the men and women within this administration would be staring down the barrel of significant prison time.

Impeachment? That's small potatoes. They'd all be in jail for premeditated murder.

"...the nation’s Founders realized that an excessive veneration of the military was not good for a republic. The American Republic was supposed to be the antithesis of the militarized societies of 18th century Europe. The glorification of the militarized U.S. foreign policy of the latter half of the 20th and early 21st centuries would make the founding generation roll over in their grave."

Beyond Capitalism: Problems and Solutions

Beyond Capitalism: Problems and Solutions

No one will ever accuse George Bush of being a traitor to his class. Bush’s self proclaimed political base consists of the wealthiest one percent of the population; and he has rewarded them handsomely for their financial support. You see, elites think of themselves as privileged; more deserving of wealth than the rest of us. The elite believe they are our moral and intellectual superiors as a right of birth, like royalty. Thus, in only a few years of transparent class warfare Bush has managed to turn the huge budget surplus he inherited into the greatest national debt in history. At the same time he has essentially bankrupted the nation both economically and morally. During this time of economic downturn suffered by working people (the fat cats on Wall Street are still making money), Bush has managed to provide enormous welfare to the rich by stealing from the poor. His every policy is detrimental to working class people while simultaneously beneficial to the wealthy. There can be no question about Bush’s class loyalty, or the class loyalty of those who preceded him into the White House.

Wired News: Troops Learn to Not Offend

Wired News: Troops Learn to Not Offend: "Ironically, although the game was developed for the military, it contains no weapons or combat situations. It emulates a civil affairs mission and develops like a multipart story in which soldiers must gain the trust of the people they interact with in order to rebuild communities. 'I got a kick out of removing the weapons and replacing them with gestures,' Vilhjalmsson says.

Tactical Language Training is a private company that has licensed the technology from USC and will continue developing the software. The company might also release a civilian version.

The overwhelming response has both surprised and delighted Vilhjalmsson, who sees enormous potential, both for the software and for other interactive learning programs.

Scholars Question Cheney's Role in 9/11

Scholars Question Cheney's Role in 9/11: "James H. Fetzer, Ph.D., McKnight Professor at the University of Minnesota. Fetzer is the founder and co-chair of the scholars' society, which recently joined with Judicial Watch in calling for release of documents, films and videos, and physical evidence withheld from the public by the administration. 'It pulls the plug on the Commission's contention there was no advance warning that the Pentagon was going to be hit.'"
