I have just talked with Robert Barrows, R.M. Barrows, Inc., Advertising & Public Relations, Burlingame, California, who informed me the following release has been distributed to news agencies worldwide. It is now in the hands of the media at large, and they will be going with this story. The embargo on the news is lifted. Therefore, here it is for Cryptomundo readers. I feel, in all honesty, this, indeed, may be the real deal, and I say this carefully after reviewing information that has been shared privately with me. I cannot say more yet. But people will be very surprised. ~ Loren Coleman, Bigfoot! The True Story of Apes in America. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 12, 2008 BIGFOOT BODY ...

GeekDad Interview: Emmanuel Goldstein By John Baichtal August 12, 2008 | 10:30:00 AM I interviewed Emmanuel Goldstein as part of my review of his book, The Best of 2600: A Hacker Odyssey. JB: Is it possible The Best of 2600: A Hacker Odyssey is the first history of hacking written by hackers? EG: It's certainly the largest compilation ever of pieces written by hackers. I'm hoping that it reaches a lot of people in the non-hacking world who may finally get the chance to see our perspective and share our enthusiasm. But there have been other books put out by hackers that cover some of this stuff. I was pretty surprised though at how much material we wound up with and how the ...
Meteor Shower - A Cosmic Fireworks Show

A Cosmic Fireworks Show Get set for a shower – but you won’t need an umbrella for this one. The Perseid meteor shower is an annual favourite with stargazers across Canada. Shooting stars regularly zip across the sky on any night but every mid-August Earth slams into a cloud of sand-sized particles in space that cause a whole downpour of streaks of light in just a few hours. Peak time is from 10 pm August 11 into the following morning until 4 am. No binoculars needed, just look up, generally face a northereastly direction, where the Persieds appear to come from. For the darkest skies and best part of the show wait until after the blinding Moon sets around 1 am. From a ...

Behold The Pale Horse: The Genetics of Color and Cancer Topic Categories: Evolution • Genetics • Horses • Medicine • Molecular Biology • Speciation Posted on: August 6, 2008 3:27 PM, by "GrrlScientist" Even though I have always been a fan of black horses, my heart did leap at the sight of the noble Shadowfax racing towards Gandalf in response to his call in the Lord of the Rings. White horses have symbolized purity throughout most ages and cultures, so political leaders have often been portrayed astride a white horse. Interestingly, these so-called white horses are actually Gray. White horses have pink skin and blue eyes. Gray horses are typically born ...

Lawrence Lessig on the coming "i-Patriot Act" Posted by Mark Frauenfelder, August 5, 2008 2:33 PM T0AD says: Lawrence Lessig, a respected Law Professor from Stanford University told an audience at this years Fortune’s Brainstorm Tech conference in Half Moon Bay, California, that “There’s going to be an i-9/11 event” which will act as a catalyst for a radical reworking of the law pertaining to the Internet. Lessig also revealed that he had learned, during a dinner with former government Counter Terrorism Czar Richard Clarke, that there is already in existence a cyber equivalent of the Patriot Act, an “i-Patriot Act” if you will, and that the ...
The FBI's emerging, leaking case against Ivins

(updated below - Update II - Update III - Update IV) It's certainly possible that once the FBI closes its investigation and then formally unveils its evidence -- which apparently will happen tomorrow -- a very convincing case will be made that Bruce Ivins perpetrated the anthrax attacks and did so alone. But what has been revealed thus far -- through the standard ritual of selected Government leaks which the establishment media, with some exceptions, just mindlessly re-prints no matter how frivolous -- is creating the opposite impression. The FBI's coordinated leaking is making their claim to have solved the anthrax case appear quite dubious, in some instances laughably so. One ...

The Nose, an Emotional Time Machine By NATALIE ANGIER Published: August 5, 2008 Here is a fun and easy experiment that Rachel Herz of Brown University suggests you try at home, but only if you promise to eat your vegetables first, floss afterward, and are not at risk of a diabetic coma. Buy a bag of assorted jelly beans of sufficiently high quality to qualify, however oxymoronically, as “gourmet.” Then, sample all the flavors in the bag systematically until you are sure you appreciate just how distinctive each one is, because expertise is important and you may never get another excuse this good. Now for the meat of our matter: pinch your nostrils shut and do the sampling ...
Chemical discovery on Mars stumps Phoenix team [Mars is polluted - NEED TO CLEAN IT UP]

Chemical discovery on Mars stumps Phoenix team David Perlman, Chronicle Science Editor Scientists analyzing two soil samples their Phoenix spacecraft dug from the surface of Mars announced they have discovered what may be the highly oxidizing chemical called perchlorate, a common component of rocket fuels, explosives and some medicines, they reported Monday. The surprising discovery in the Martian soil seems contradictory, because if it really is confirmed as a perchlorate compound it suggests that the planet's soil may be very much like Earth's, said Peter Smith, the University of Arizona scientist who heads the Phoenix mission. However, Smith said in his announcement, ...
Lewontin's Fallacy for Dummies (You know who you are)

Looked at from angle number 1, these two distributions don't look much different: Looked at from angle number 2, they look even less different: At this point Lewontin and his ilk throw up their hands and say "race is imaginary." (Technically they say race is a social construct, but most people don't know the difference, and they know that.) They never bother looking down another axis, which the man on the street does uncannily well all the time without any help from mathematics and despite the fevered desires of the capital-P professors: The two populations are almost completely distinct. In mathematical terms, the vector perpendicular to the viewing angle of ...

US device that finds gunman in seconds to be tested by police Belfast Telegraph / August 4, 2008 Technology used by the US military to trace snipers in Iraq and Afghanistan is to be employed by British police to combat gun crime and terrorism. The ShotSpotter system, already used by police in 29 cities across the US, uses patented technology to detect the exact location of gunfire or explosives within 80ft in less than seven seconds. It works by using an elaborate network of microphones placed on lamp posts, rooftops, masts and pylons in urban crime hotspots. Four British forces are interested in using the technology to combat organised crime and gang violence: Greater Manchester, ...
Climate hysterics v heretics in an age of unreason

Climate hysterics v heretics in an age of unreason Arthur Herman | August 04, 2008 IT has been a tough year for the high priests of global warming in the US. First, NASA had to correct its earlier claim that the hottest year on record in the contiguous US had been 1998, which seemed to prove that global warming was on the march. It was actually 1934. Then it turned out the world's oceans have been growing steadily cooler, not hotter, since 2003. Meanwhile, the winter of 2007 was the coldest in the US in decades, after Al Gore warned us that we were about to see the end of winter as we know it. In a May issue of Nature, evidence about falling global temperatures forced German ...

SHIFT: Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are a fraud
Post Date: 2008-08-02 12:19:18 by mirage

Who wouldn’t like the idea of a fuel cell car running on clean, pure hydrogen, the universe’s most plentiful element? Its byproduct is sparkling, drinkable water, with none of that pesky pollution spewing out the tailpipe. And then if there's any energy left over when you're done driving, why, you could use that car's fuel cell to power your house! We can get rid of gasoline! And fuel cells, hey, they use those in spacecraft, don't they? This is some modern stuff, and at first glance, hydrogen appears to be a viable solution to all our energy problems. Well, think again. Hydrogen fuel cell cars are a dumb idea, and those who are pushing them are frauds. They want ...

OSU engineer: Hydrogen system in autos a scam
Post Date: 2008-07-31 20:09:37 by mirage

The hydrogen gas systems being used by several mid-valley drivers cannot deliver any kind of efficiency, says Bob Paasch, the Boeing professor of mechanical design at Oregon State University. “The process is a scam,” he said. “It’s wishful thinking. If it were true, every power company and auto company in the world would be using it.” Paasch said the systems — which use water and baking soda to create hydrogen via an electrical charge from the battery and alternator — violate the second law of thermodynamics and can’t work. “People who buy into this are wasting their money,” he said. Paasch has conducted tests on a similar device in the ...
The FCC Set To Give The Net An Unlikely Victory

If all goes as we anticipate, a new era for the Internet could begin on Aug. 1, 2008. On that day, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is expected to decide that Internet users have rights under the communications law. This is a spectacular victory, because not long ago the thought that a Bush Administration FCC would actually enforce its 2005 principles for an open Internet would have been laughable. The principles were the product of intense negotiations around an order that took telephone company DSL service out from under the protections of the Communications Act that protected consumers for 70 years. Democratic Commissioners Michael Copps and Jonathan Adelstein got the ...

U.S. blacks face harsher climate change impact 29 Jul 2008 17:32:07 GMT Source: Reuters By Deborah Zabarenko, Environment Correspondent WASHINGTON, July 29 (Reuters) - American blacks are likely to suffer disproportionately from climate change and they are willing to pay to combat it, a commission aimed at raising awareness about global warming said on Tuesday. "There is a fierce urgency regarding climate change effects on the African-American community," said Ralph Everett, the co-chair of the Commission to Engage African-Americans on Climate Change said. "People need to understand what is at stake -- our very health and well-being." Blacks are more than twice as ...
