Anderson if you want to be taken seriously then get rid of the nameless and faceless 'public service' announcer.

THIS MEANS NOTHING. The "Kobi Full Court' press is trying to discredit the victim again. Her identity should be kept confidential this time.

Manchin Reacts to McCloy's LetterPosted 4/27/2006 06:14 PM
Governor hopes letter can shed some light on what happened.
Story by Jack Kane
Email Bio Governor Manchin spent countless hours with the miners family members as they awaited word from inside the mine. And, he later attended memorial services for those that lost their lives. Manchin referred to Randall McCloy as West Virginia's miracle.
Manchin is currently in Europe on a trade mission. But, the governor's press secretary, Tom Hunter, says Manchin hopes Mcloy's letter can shed some light on what happened. Hunter adds, "He's very eager to return to the state for the beginning of public hearings on Tuesday. It is his hope a lot of these questions can be addressed at these hearings".

What difference does it make if change has come, Anderson. It certainly didn't come in time for these miners. Or this one either.

Dead soldier posts farewell note on MySpace

By Aabhi Raghunathan / St. Petersburg Times

Before signing off his webpage on MySpace.com Monday, Army Pvt. Dylan Meyer typed a farewell note to the world.

"Jesus, I don't know if any of you have heard what has happened to me yet, but I just want to remind you not to be sad. Laugh, that's what lifes about," Meyer wrote. "When it is all said and done, and all the b------t is cleared away, it is the ones you love who you will remember."

The next morning, Meyer was found dead in the Army barracks at Fort Gordon in Georgia. He was 20.

Because the Army is still investigating, officials would not release the cause of Meyer's death or say if he committed suicide. But the note on Meyer's MySpace page seemed to tell many in the tight community at Gibbs High School, which Meyer attended, that he had taken his own life.

April 27th, 2006 7:19 pm3 New Orleans Drainage Pumps Catch Fire
By Brett Martel /
Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS - Three massive drainage pumps caught fire during heavy rain Wednesday and will be out of commission at least a month, city officials said.

Insulated wiring in dozens of pumps, including the three that caught fire, was damaged by salt water that flooded the city after major levee breaks caused by Hurricane Katrina.

"Salt water and 100-year-old insulation on wires is not compatible," said G. Joseph Sullivan, general superintendent for the city's Sewerage and Water Board.

Because the salt-water flooding was caused by breaks in federal levees, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has pledged to pay nearly $37 million to repair the pump motors at 24 stations around the city.

Quality of gasoline declines as prices billow

Aftermarket Business,
May, 2005
by Sativa Ross

Deposit-control additives have been required by the EPA in all gasoline since 1995; however, research shows that as much as 50 percent of the fuel on the market is formulated with less effective additives that employ the minimum additive legally required (known as the lowest additive concentration, or LAC), according to Scott Cushing, sales manager at ChevronTexaco. Although it conforms to EPA regulations, many believe that LAC gasoline provides inadequate valve cleanliness.

"LAC was actually created to help reduce exhaust emissions by keeping fuel injectors and intake valves and ports clean," says Cushing. But the testing requirements were flawed such that even low doses of additives could pass the test, which results in excessive deposits that cause driveability upset. High fuel prices have forced consumers to shop around for the lowest cost, but when they purchase inexpensive gasoline, they may very well be buying LAC gas and unknowingly contributing to engine deposits, explains Cushing.

Disarmament board chooses Iranian as vice chair
By NATHAN GUTTMANWASHINGTON


As the international community looks into ways of stopping Iran from developing nuclear weapons, an Iranian representative was elected to be the vice chair of the UN's disarmament commission.
The commission, which began its annual conference last week, was established by the UN General Assembly in the early 50's in order to promote disarmament and to review international treaties dealing with nuclear energy.
The commission does not have any authority to enforce its decisions and is not connected to the International Atomic Energy Agency, which is the international nuclear watchdog that is now investigating Iran's nuclear program and is expected to report to the UN Security Council by the end of the month.
The new Iranian vice chair, Mehdi Danesh-Yazdi, who is also the country's ambassador to the UN, said last week that Iran will cooperate with the IAEA and will "seek an acceptable venue for holding transparent talks with interested parties." The ambassador, who is one of three vice-chairpersons, said during the meeting of the commission that Israel's nuclear stockpile is among "the major sources of concern with regard to global peace and security."
