I have an observation and question to the THERE-IS-NO CONSPIRACY supporters.

An argument often used by your side is that no organization could have put all the supposed explosives in the WTC without anyone noticing it. You will say the WTC collapse was simply caused by the burning jet fuel, which weakened the steel structure to a point where everything just collapsed.

By doing so you are clearly saying that ALL IT TOOK to bring down the WTC was to crash a commercial airliner into it.

By your own arguments, you are admitting that making the WTC collapse wasn't such a complex operation to organize. All you had to do was manage to crash a commercial airliner into it. I'm asking the following question:

For whom would it be easier to successfully accomplish what was done (crashing commercial airliners)?
For foreign terrorists?
Or from terrorists working from within the US government?

I mean, if as you suggest, a bunch of foreign terrorists could pull it off (crashing a commercial airliner in the WTC), can you at least acknowledge that an organization that has infiltrated the US government would have even more chances of successfully pulling it off...??? ]]> The Lounge s_lone http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=75152 Pond Ideas summer 2008 http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=75150 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 19:10:41 GMT You will be amazed with your back yard potential http://www.skippysstuff.com/newponds.htm You will be amazed with your back yard potential

The Physics of Hell"
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so profound that the professor shared it with colleagues via the Internet, which is of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law, (gas cools off when it expands and heats up when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the volume of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell and the rate they are leaving.
I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. Of course, if Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over. So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Ms. Teresa Banyan during my Freshman year: "It will be a cold day in Hell before I give you my number," and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in acquiring her number, then 2 cannot be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and will not freeze.
The student received the only "A".

Quote:
Tribal privacy? What if Im part of the tribe...........I am yanno I got my number and my tribal name. Now can I learn? Now can I be accepted? Does it take a number to let me in?
This quote prompted me to open a dialogue on an issue that has been put forward to me many times.

"What about your status card?"

What about it?

It doesn't define me.
It doesn't represent a preconceived ideology.
It doesn't reflect my beliefs...
My feelings...
My Nationality...
My loyalties...
My past...
My future...

And so on.

In fact I have no idea what it does for me. I've thought of cutting it up, throwing it in a fire or mailing it back to the MIA.

Being Native isn't about a card, special rights, privileges or access to anything. It's about my ancestry and that's it.

Yes, most definitely yes, I am proud of my heritage, but it is just a small part of who I really am.

At the end of the day, or my life, I will be who I am, with or without a piece of plastic in my pocket to tell me who I belong to.

I am and always just will be Okwai.

But this week, though much... As some of you have noticed, I like to post articles from MNN here once a week or so. But this week, though much has happened on Turtle Island, I couldn't bring myself to post anything from them.

Between yesterday and this morning, I poured over all the new articles, that have sprung up since my last visit and nada. Not a single thing worth repeating.

Oh there were tons of new articles. There was no shortage there. It was the content and the paranoid commentary that made me walk away and leave them to broadcast their own tripe.

When queried on the MNN, I've oft stated quite clearly and succinctly, take all you read there with a block of salt and for good reason.

Yes I read the articles, yes I go there often, but not to be informed by the OP/ED pieces, but by the events that spawned them.

You see, the MSM doesn't even cover a small fraction of what is going on in the Native world within Canada. It's left to fester and boil on its own. It truly needs the same scrutiny as the Parliamentary buildings in Ottawa and Toronto.

I think this further exacerbates the issues faced by the First Nations.

Sure, when we're stomping our feet or pounding our drums in a protest, we get great coverage. But the little hinky details of the day to day minutia, miss the TV screens of the nation. This limits public scrutiny and so long as the public, Native or not, doesn't get to see what is going on behind the scenes as we do with the Canadian Parliament, things will never change in any relevant way.

In my late 20's, I met several members of the Toronto Metis community. We all had similar feelings of despair, with regards to the corruption and lies within the leadership. Both National and Provincial.

They had the proof, I the gift of voice, righteous indignation, lol, and tenacity. Together, we set out to rid the system they were members of, of corruption and theft. The goal, transparency and accountability within the offices of Tony Belcourt.

There were trips to Queens Park and Ottawa, meetings with the both the Provincial and Nation MIA's. We contacted the MSM dailies and broadcasters. The only outlet that would give us a podium was, the Tansi paper. A monthly paper dedicated to Toronto's Native community. It was an outlet. We used it. I wrote OP/ED piece after OP/ED piece. Asking, no demanding, the Metis and First Nations people stand and be counted. Have their voices heard and heard clear. But it was for not. We received death threats. The then President of the Toronto Metis council was stripped of his Metis status, (As absurd as that sounds, the PCMNO, have that ability) though he can actually trace his liniage right back to the Red River and Louis Reil. Me? I became a pariah in my own community. Long time friends lost my number, turned on me and joined the ranks of the criminal nepotism class. You see, we were but a few. With our own money as our bank roll and our own voices as our vanguards. The leaders, bank rolled by Ottawa, propped up by the MIA's corporate entity and defended by pay off.

The status quo must reign.

It seems, though the proof was substantial, it stood the test of scrutiny the MSM would apply. It just wasn't news worthy enough for them to address.

The people that brought this to the light of day weren't just mere peasants. These were men of stature and substance. Doctor, Lawyers and blue collar pseudo intellectuals. But none the less, all easily ignored.

The light must be turned on, the roaches exposed as they frolic in the cookie jars of tax payers money. But so long as the news must entertain the mondain, and the MIA believes the status quo is worth supporting to save their own careers. This justice will never see the light of truth. ]]> The Lounge CDNBear http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=74610 Why The Towers Fell http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=74609 Sat, 14 Jun 2008 13:22:02 GMT
