As unpalatable as it is I think that all families of American military personnel need to consider that EVEN IF 9/11 HAD NEVER HAPPENED

George Bush had already penciled in a substantial number of their immediate family members into the debit column.

Of course they're building permanent bases! What else would they be doing. In fact its more than 2 dozen between Afghanistan and Iraq alone.

There are countless others in surrounding countries already, fully manned and fully armed though only marginally involved in Iraq.

Go figure. Not to mention the bases at sea that virtually blanket the Persian Gulf. This is your foreign policy. Those soldiers are your embassadors.

You're so right. I've been telling my conservative friends for over a year that we're there to stay. It doesn't take a genius to know these things or to know there were no WMDs.

The slow training of the Iraqis to take over validated the fact we had no plans on leaving in the immediate future.

The fact that Google Earth allows average citizens to look down on a square block anywhere in the world while our government, who can see a gum wrapper on the sidewalk, didn't have any idea what was going on in Iraq was the other clue. The media either ignores these things out of fear or ignorance. After all, they never know when their phone might be tapped and their e-mails examined.

"Signs of a long US stay ahead

BALAD AIR BASE, Iraq -- The concrete goes on forever, vanishing into the noonday glare, 2 million cubic feet of it, a mile-long slab that's now the home of as many as 120 US helicopters, a ''heli-park" as good as any back in the States.
At another giant base, Asad in Iraq's western desert, the 17,000 troops and workers come and go in a kind of bustling American town, with a Burger King and Pizza Hut, a car dealership, stop signs, traffic regulations + young bikers clogging the roads.
At a third hub down south, Tallil, they're planning a new mess hall, one that will seat 6,000 hungry airmen and soldiers for chow.
Are the Americans here to stay? Air Force mechanic Josh Remy is sure of it as he looks around Balad.

With Bush 's low approval ratings, you would think the Dems have nothing to fear.....so....why are they such wimps? Feingold and Leahy were the only Dems at the censure hearings.

As I recall, one of the complaints made by Mr. bin Laden was the presence of U.S. troops in their "Holy Places".

These troops being there to "contain" our former business partner, Saddam. Saddam having been selected as the boogeyman to keep our Military/Industrial Complex in the money after the fall of Communism.

So, permanent military bases would insure that we will continue to have an enemy. This being a prerequisite to maintaining a "War on Terror" and keep the dollars flowing.

Thus we are riding on a Merry go Round of fighting terrorism which generates terrorism requiring a continuation of the fight which continues the terrorism.

Anyone wishing to stop the Merry go Round so that we as a nation can get off is labeled unpatriotic or supporting of the enemy. A more appropriate label would be sane.
Oh, as an answer to Mr. PerryWhite, yes. World War II has ended, we won, its in all of the history books. We do not need to defend anyone in Europe and if you are afraid of Communist China, don't shop at Wal Mart.

Gary Hart is one of the very few observers of the Iraq war who has hit on the essence of the matter: no matter the trumped up charges OF WMD, Al Quaeda link, the cruelty and sadism of the Saddam tyranny, the democracy building program + any other issue of high moral significance, all of it a slapdash attempt to divert attention from the real reason for the war: the neocon's imperial geopolitical strategy of securing Iraqi oil before the Chinese or the Indians grab it. Bush and Company don't care what anyone thinks about this war as long as they attain their goal of stationing U.S. forces in Iraq on permanent, fortified bases for as long as they are needed to protect, maintain + exercise on-site control over the extraction, storage, and shipment of Iraqi oil from now on. Their motivation arises from the indisputable fact that the U.S. economy would grind to a halt, never to rise again, were the oil supply to dry up. Some pundits give it three weeks. One gives it three days! But all of the Bush advisers are deeply aware that the Chinese and the Indians pose a serious threat to the viability of the U.S. economy in their burgeoning demand for petroleum. Given that perspective they consider themselves the saviors of the nation. Given this essence of truth about the war, it appears the Bush ies have repeatedly and cleverly shifted the grounds for debate about pursuing the war to such questions as whether or not Iraq can become a democracy; and away from the real debate about whether the permanent occupation of Iraq was and is the only way to secure oil supplies for the immediate and long range future. Bush , Cheney, et al decided back 1001 that a pre-emptive, agressive policy on securing oil supplies was entirely consistent with the U.S. policy toward the Middle East over at least the last sixty years, most notably since the Eisenhower administration actively toppled the newly elected government of Iran of Mohammed Mossadegh in 1953 in favor of a regime more friendly to western oil companies.
Another way of looking at it is to perceive that the Iraq war is the first 21st century war over major natural resources. Undoubtedly there will be others.

Albeit a little late, I commend Mr. Hart for his insight into this grave debacle. It's about time more people realized what our fearless leaders have been up to. Instead of being an implausible but altruistic series of missteps on the part of Bush Co, it was a calculated, systematic plan to:
1.) make some quick billions off the flow of Iraq's oil before oversight was established.
2.) redeploy our troops from Saudi Arabia (where they were becoming a liability to the monarchy) to Iraq to maintain a lasting presence in the Middle East.
3.) take Rumsfeld's new 'privatized' military for a test run. (and make tons of profit for Bush Co's corporate bedfellows)
The last I knew, war profiteering is at its least an impeachable offense -- if not a treasonous act.

Mr. Hart,
For a D.C. insider this as far as anyone has gone to point out the clear madness of Blood Money Empire.
That said, yours is an obvious strawman argument and "limited hangout" dodge.
A corporate cartel puppet Bush Co regime and its loyal opposition "left" does what it's told and won't answer this question anymore than it will answer for 911 as an inside job.
After all, the official 911 conspiracy is a see-through fairy tale. And if the supposed right and left out of D.C. can stand pat on blatant deceptions to promote a corporate war of conquest in the Mid East - why not lie about the 911 flashpoint the entire charade is built on?

Big Oil has been manipulating Iraq since the earlier part of the last century.
Senate subcommitee hearings in the 1970's showed that Iraq was being forced into a role of being an oil reserve for the future while the oil corporations made their neighbors rich.

It was shown that Kuwait was slant drilling into Iraqi oil fields at that time as well.
No wonder they kicked out the Americans and Brits as soon as they could and nationalized their own natural resources.
Perhaps we ought to do the same when it comes to this country's resources and reverse the corrupting effects of unbridled privatization?
For reference check an article called "How Big Oil Beguiled Iraq" published in the 1979 issue of the Cousteau Almanac.

I did a search after reading your blog post and found the following interesting analysis from the Moscow Times. It suggests why the prospect of civil war may possibly be used to justify a permanent presence.
They write:
"Civil war also enhances the prospect of permanent U.S. bases. The Sunni minority, once the most vociferous opponents of American occupation, now look -- vainly -- to U.S. forces as their last-ditch protection against the deadly militias of the Shiite majority. The Shiite-led government relies on U.S. military might to prop up its rickety state system. The Kurds (who are busy ethnically cleansing their own enclave, as The Washington Post reports + imprisoning people for criticizing the corruption of Kurdish leaders, as The New York Times reports) are happy for the Americans to plant vast, minatory fortresses down south to keep the troublesome Arabs in line. And so the permanent bases are being sunk deep into Iraqi soil; the Pentagon has already 'authorized or proposed almost $1 billion' for bases in 2005-06, The Associated Press reports."

I agree that the bases are one of the key pieces of the long-term strategy puzzle. I have read reports that the funds have been allocated for those bases (also in afghanistan) + that they are under construction. I saw condi on one of the sunday morning shows (russert, i think), do her best to duck that question with what she thought was lawyerly careful word- twisting. She certainly TRIED to give the impression that whatever bases were being built would be handed over to the iraqis when our troops left. Pretty generous, eh?

I have been pleading with the American press corps for months to ask the Bush administration one simple question, a question designed to expose our true agenda: "Are we, or are we not, constructing permanent military bases in Iraq?" Full stop.

Finally, this from Gen. John Abizaid, our senior military commander in Iraq: The USA may want to keep a long-term military presence in Iraq to bolster moderates against extremists in the region and to protect the flow of oil. (source: Reuters, March 15, 2006)

Despite recent assurances that we were going to withdraw our military from Iraq as soon as we "stand up" the Iraqi military, President Bush stated a few days ago that his legacy to his successor was the Iraqi war.

Hobbes's contract creates not only fear, it creates distrust in a government making crucial decisions in spheres outside of the control of the ordinary citizen. Hobbes made his argument to answer a specific problem of exceptional insecurity. But the trade-off he suggested is flawed. This formula will never provide us with the security we need; instead it increases our need for it. By restoring the purpose of government as one that serves its people through preserving freedom as the supreme good, one restores citizens to their role in deliberating these decisions and cedes the public space back to its owners.
05.Apr.2006

The essential principle of democracy is that no single part of a vibrant democratic system - the judiciary, media, campaigners or interest groups, political parties, legislatures or local governments - can alone confront the authoritarian state. All are obliged to work together to preserve and maintain citizens' liberty. For elections and human-rights law alone will never give citizens freedom or provide the guarantees of democracy. As Cole warned: "Laws are the scaffolding of human freedom; but they are not part of the building."
05.Apr.2006

The theory of the democratic state describes the nature of a social contract in the opposite way to Hobbes. Defined by British writers such as John Stuart Mill, RH Tawney and GDH Cole, among others (and continental Europeans such as Rousseau and Kant), the purpose of the contract is to protect a citizen's liberty. Its preservation - especially the preservation of political liberty - is the supreme good. In this version of the social contract, the sovereign citizen does not surrender sovereignty, but only specific powers and functions to the state. As political sovereignty is not transferred to the state, not only are civil rights inalienable but so are political liberties, above all the right to determine and to deliberate laws. It is not simply participating in these decisions, it is actually making them.

Yet if we are citizens who live in a democratic country, why has it become so difficult for the citizens of today to contain the authoritarian project of the government + to participate in the political framework in a way that restores the democratic heartbeat of the country? It is not apathy that prevents people's participation in politics, it is the feeling of powerlessness over the very structures that rule them.

Der frühere SPD-Vorsitzende Lafontaine war Ende Dezember in die Linkspartei eingetreten.

Deren Vorgängerpartei PDS steht seit Februar 2000 auf dem Index der saarländischen Staatsschützer, wie ein Sprecher des Innenministeriums in Saarbrücken der Nachrichtenagentur AP bestätigte.

Ministeriumssprecher Torsten Rott wollte den Bericht zu Lafontaine aber nicht bestätigen. Die Namen der in der NADIS-Datei gemeldeten Personen unterlägen der Geheimhaltung, sagte er.

Der Leiter des Landesamtes für Verfassungsschutz, Helmut Albert, sagte dem Magazin, das immer noch gültige Parteiprogramm der PDS habe langfristig die Überwindung des bestehenden "kapitalistischen Systems" und die Schaffung einer "sozialistischen Gesellschaftsordnung" zum Ziel. In der Linkspartei wirkten "nach wie vor offen extremistische Kräfte", wurde er zitiert. Zudem gebe es weiterhin eine Zusammenarbeit mit in- und ausländischen Linksextremisten. Linksparteipolitiker: "Absurde Posse"

Führende Linkspartei-Politiker sprachen von einer "absurden Posse". Ko-Fraktionschef Gregor Gysi warf dem saarländischen Ministerpräsidenten Peter Müller Machtmissbrauch in Bezug auf Geheimdienste vor. Aufgabe des Landesverfassungsschutzes sei es, die Verfassung zu schützen und nicht Abgeordnete ins Parlament zu schicken oder deren Einzug zu verhindern, erklärte Gysi in Berlin. Stand: 19.03.2006

Author: ScuttleMonkey 161  The Discovery Channel is reporting a recent study indicates that cockroaches govern themselves using simple group consultations before anything that affects the entire group. From the article: " The research determined that cockroach decision-making follows a predictable pattern that could explain group dynamics of other insects and animals, such as ants, spiders, fish and even cows. Cockroaches, Blattella Germanica, are silent creatures, save perhaps for the sound of them scurrying over a counter top. They therefore must communicate without vocalizing.

Gesicht als Publikumsmagnet

Bis das Skelett und später auch die Gesichtszüge des Mädchens rekonstruiert werden könnten, sei es noch ein langer Weg. Ein Problem sind auch die hohen Kosten. "Wir haben keinen Etat für ein derartiges Forschungsobjekt", sagte Niedersachsens Landesarchäologe Henning Hassmann. Er bemühe sich weiter um Fördermittel. Hassmann ist sich sicher: Ein Mädchen mit Gesicht könne "Leute besser ins Museum locken als nur Knochen."
04.Apr.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-409781,00.html
Hamburger Gerichtsmediziner hatten die Knochen und Zähne des Mädchens, das beim Torfabbau im Uchter Moor bei Nienburg gefunden worden war, in den vergangenen Monaten mit hochmodernen Methoden untersucht.

Bislang war "Mooras" Lebensalter auf 17 bis 18 Jahre geschätzt worden.
04.Apr.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-409781,00.html

Ihr Leben war kurz und entbehrungsreich: "Moora", das vor rund 2650 Jahren im niedersächsischen Moor versunkene Mädchen, habe zu Lebzeiten zehn bis elf Hungersnöte durchlitten,

sagten Wissenschaftler des Uniklinikums Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE) am heutigen Dienstag. Das Mädchen sei womöglich schon mit 15 Jahren im Moor versunken.

Die von den Vögeln gewählten Lösungen basierten eindeutig nicht nur auf der Wiederholung erfolgreicher Strategien, sonst wären sie an der zweiten Aufgabe gescheitert, berichten die Forscher.

Krähen können demnach physikalische Prinzipien erfassen + sie auch übertragen, um dadurch mindestens so komplizierte Probleme zu lösen, wie es auch Primaten können.

Allerdings hält Seed es für eher unwahrscheinlich, dass die Vögel tatsächlich die Zusammenhänge zwischen den einzelnen physikalischen Kräften verstanden haben.

Vielmehr schienen die Vögel ihre Umwelt zu verstehen, indem sie Regeln abstrahierten, mutmaßen Seed und ihre Kollegen in der Fachzeitschrift "Current Biology" (Bd. 16, S. 697).
04.Apr.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/erde/0,1518,druck-409641,00.html

Ein Jahr zuvor hatten Forscher entdeckt, dass neukaledonische Krähen in freier Wildbahn eine Lieblingsseite für die Werkzeugführung haben:

Stochern sie mit einem Grashalm nach Insekten, zeigen sie deutliche Präferenzen als "Links- oder Rechtsschnäbler".
04.Apr.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/erde/0,1518,druck-409641,00.html

Bereits im Jahr 2002 hatte an der Oxford University die Krähe Betty die Wissenschaftler verblüfft: Damals bog das Tier ein gerades Stück Draht so um, dass es als Haken benutzt werden konnte. Nur mit Hilfe dieses Werkzeugs gelangte Betty an Futter, das in einem Röhrchen versteckt war.
04.Apr.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/erde/0,1518,druck-409641,00.html
Ob die Tiere allerdings die grundlegenden physikalischen Regeln hinter solchen Aufgaben verstehen oder ob sie bloß erfolgreiche Strategien wiederholen, ist unter den Wissenschaftlern umstritten.
04.Apr.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/erde/0,1518,druck-409641,00.html

Bislang hatten Wissenschaftler angenommen, dass nur Primaten, die auch in freier Wildbahn Werkzeuge benutzen, über solche geistigen Fähigkeiten verfügen. Einige Primatenarten konnten bereits in der Vergangenheit von Forschern gestellte Aufgaben, die auf physikalischen Prinzipien basieren, mit Erfolg lösen. Beispielsweise können die Tiere Futter, das in einer durchsichtigen Röhre versteckt ist, mit einem Zweig hinausschieben.

04.Apr.2006 _{https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/} Pierre Salinger, JFK's Press Secretary, had befriended Mary Pinchot Meyer, the wife of Cord Meyer of the CIA. Her mysterious death has been tied, by some theorists, to that of JFK. As far as I know, Salinger never endorsed a conspiracy theory of the JFK murder, although he did encounter some turbulence (so to speak) when he lent his name to the "missile" theory of the downing of TWA 800 in 1996.

04.Apr.2006 _{https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/} Since this blog usually ignores '60s-era controversies -- readers seem more interested in today than in yesterday -- few seemed to care very much about my previous RFK post.

Nevertheless, this is one assassination story which deserves wider attention, due to the thin -- but genuine -- possibility that hard evidence may yet surface.
That evidence took or takes the form of a clandestine tape recording allegedly made in 1968 by a lawyer named Ronald Buck, who co-owned a Los Angeles night spot named The Factory.

On this tape -- allegedly -- were the voices of military bigwigs and H.L. Hunt, who bragged about engineering the deaths of JFK and Martin Luther King + who announced a determination to do likewise to Robert Kennedy. This gathering occurred at a private party at The Factory.
Allegedly.

He increased Cold War tensions by pushing the bogus "Bulgarians shot the Pope" story. He now screams for regime change in Iran. Although he claims that he does not want this change to be brought about through force of arms, most would agree that nothing short of war will do the trick -- and most would agree that war is likely.
04.Apr.2006 _{https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/} According to a Newsweek story from last December, Hannah played a direct role in stovepiping (mis-)information from the Achmed Chalabi's notorious Iraqi National Congress:

For months, Cheney’s office has denied that the veep bypassed U.S. intelligence agencies to get intel reports from the INC.

But a 00.Jun.2002 memo written by INC lobbyist Entifadh Qunbar to a U.S. Senate committee lists John Hannah, a senior national-security aide on Cheney’s staff, as one of two “U.S. governmental recipients” for reports generated by an intelligence program being run by the INC + which was then being funded by the State Department.

Under the program, “defectors, reports and raw intelligence are cultivated and analyzed”; the info was then reported to, among others, “appropriate governmental, non-governmental and international agencies.”

The memo not only describes Cheney aide Hannah as a “principal point of contact” for the program, it even provides his direct White House telephone number.

The only other U.S. official named as directly receiving the INC intel is William Luti, a former military adviser to former House Speaker Newt Gingrich who, after working on Cheney’s staff early in the Bush administration, shifted to the Pentagon, where he oversaw a secretive Iraq war-planning unit called the Office of Special Plans. So we come back to one of the foundation questions underlying this mess. Who was behind Chalabi?
04.Apr.2006 _{https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/} Raw Story's headline reads "CIA Leaker Revealed." But that's a tad misleading.

The actual story on Truthout reveals that Fitzgerald has known for quite some time the identity of the person who spoke to Novak. Fitz has a name, it seems -- but we still don't.
Or do we...? Alas, this notoriously complex story has now become even more convoluted.
Truthout's Jason Leopold says that Fitz was able to finger the leaker with help from John Hannah, a key Cheney aide who (unknown to Bush Co) was "turned" back in 2004.

Leopold identifies Hannah as a John Bolton aide "on loan" to the Cheney-run White House Iraq Group. But that description doesn't tell the full story.

At first he thought it was a generator that had exploded. But the cement walls in the office cracked from the explosion.

"When I heard the sound of the explosion, the floor beneath my feet vibrated, the walls started cracking + everything started shaking." said Rodriguez,

who was crowded together with fourteen other people in the office including Anthony Saltamachia, supervisor for the American Maintenance Company.
Just seconds later there was another explosion way above which made the building oscillate momentarily.

This, he was later told, was a plane hitting the 90th floor. Upon hearing about the plane, he immediately thought of the people up in the restaurant.

Then there were other explosions just above B1 and individuals started heading for the loading dock to escape the explosion's resulting rampant fire.

When asked later about those first explosions he said: "I would know if an explosion was from the bottom or the top of the building."

He heard explosions both before and after the plane hit the tower.
A fellow worker Felipe David came into the office. "He had been standing in front of a freight elevator on sub-level 1 about 400 feet from the office when fire burst out of the elevator shaft, causing his injuries."

The skin on his face had been peeled away by the heat of the blast and he was horribly burned on thirty-three percent of his body.

"He was burned so badly from the basement explosion that flesh was hanging from his face and both arms."

William asks: "How could a jetliner hit 90 floors above and burn a man's arms + face to a crisp in the basement below within seconds of impact?"

William led Felipe David outside to safety. William continued to hear people screaming and returned to the building in spite of police orders. There were people encased in elevators. There were people who needed help.

The US promised Russia and China that the UN Security Council statement just approved will not be a trigger for military action after 30 days; true to its promise, the US will attack before the 30-day deadline imposed by the UNSC for Iran to stop its nuclear enrichment activity, i.e. before the end of April.

Da Amöben häufig auch in Krankenhäusern anzutreffen sind, hat die Entdeckung potentiell großen Einfluss auf künftige Strategien zur Infektionsvermeidung.
03.Apr.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,druck-409503,00.html

Auch Legionellen vermehren sich im Innern der Amöbe stark. Die Bakterien aus dem Mini-Bioreaktor sind zudem weniger empfindlich gegenüber Bioziden und antimikrobiellen Substanzen und verhalten sich deutlich aggressiver als ihre in freier Umgebung aufgewachsenen Verwandten. Auf die MRSA-Bakterien habe das Wachstum im Einzeller vermutlich denselben Effekt, schreiben die Forscher im Fachblatt "Environmental Microbiology".

Da Amöben oft über die Luft verteilt werden, sind nach Meinung der Wissenschaftler in Kliniken aufwendigere Maßnahmen zur Vermeidung von Infektionen nötig. "Wir müssen die Rolle von Amöben bei der MRSA-Ausbreitung weiter erforschen", sagt Brown. "Krankenhäuser sollten in Zukunft nicht nur Bakterien-Infektionen selbst vorbeugen, sondern auch Strategien entwickeln, um sämtliche Einzeller abzutöten."

Insekten-Arbeit ist Milliarden wert
Insekten rauben Menschen zwar gelegentlich den letzten Nerv, leisten aber kostbare Dienste.

US-Forscher haben jetzt auf Cent und Dollar versucht auszurechnen, wie wertvoll die Arbeit der Krabbeltiere ist.

"Lassen Sie sich von der kleinen Gestalt der Insekten nicht täuschen", sagt John Losey von der Cornell University. "Diese kleinen Wunderwerke leisten wertvolle Dienste."

Der US-Forscher hat gemeinsam mit einem Kollegen ausgerechnet, wie wertvoll zumindest ein Teil der Arbeit der Insekten ist.

Das Ergebnis: Leistungen im Wert von 57 Milliarden Dollar (47,3 Milliarden Euro) jährlich tragen die Krabbeltiere Jahr für Jahr allein zum Wohlergehen der US-Wirtschaft bei.

Obwohl der israelische Forscher Sidney Loeb das schon in den siebziger Jahren vorgeschlagen hat, steckt die Entwicklung eines Osmose-Kraftwerks noch in den Kinderschuhen. Der norwegische Energiekonzern Statkraft startete jetzt gemeinsam mit Wissenschaftlern des GKSS-Forschungszentrums in Geesthacht bei Hamburg und weiteren internationalen Kollegen 2001 ein von der Europäischen Union gefördertes Projekt.

Die Chemiker aus Geesthacht sind dabei für die Entwicklung von funktionalen Membranwerkstoffen verantwortlich.

"Wir sind seit Projektbeginn schon einen großen Schritt weitergekommen", sagt Klaus-Viktor Peinemann, Projektleiter am GKSS.

5 Watt pro Quadratmeter Membran

"Die kritische Größe ist die Leistung, die mit einem Quadratmeter Membranfläche erzeugt werden kann", so Peinemann.

Am Anfang hätten die Kunststoff-Membranen aus Geesthacht lediglich eine Leistung von weniger als 0,1 Watt pro Quadratmeter liefern können, drei Jahre später dagegen konnten die Wissenschaftler schon ungefähr zwei Watt pro Quadratmeter verzeichnen.

02.Apr.2006 Swedish Study Finds Cell Phone Cancer Risk Author: Zonk 106  dtjohnson writes "A new Swedish study has found that heavy users of cell phones had a 240 percent increase in brain tumors on the side of their head that the phone was used on. The study defined 'heavy' use as more than 2,000 total hours, or approximately one hour of use per workday for 10 years. An earlier British study was previously discussed here that didn't find an increased risk, although that study covered fewer subjects and only followed one type of brain tumor for a shorter period of time. Or course, the biggest epidemiological study of all is the one we are all participating in whenever we use our cell phone. The results from that study won't be available for a while."

02.Apr.2006 Neutrino Mass Confirmed Author: Zonk 174  biohack writes "BBC News reports that results from the MINOS experiment have confirmed that neutrinos have mass. To look for neutrino oscillations, scientists created muon neutrinos in a particle accelerator at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab). After passing through a particle detector at Fermilab, a high intensity beam of neutrinos travelled to another particle detector 724km (450 miles) away in a disused mine in Soudan, US. The set up established that fewer particles were being detected at the Soudan site than had been sent from Fermilab, which confirmed that some neutrinos changed their flavor on the way - an effect called neutrino flavor oscillation, which requires them to have mass. 'To put it simply, if they are heavy, it means that there is a lot more mass in the Universe than we thought there was,' said Professor Jenny Thomas from University College London."

Most sources divulge little about this woman. We learn more about her husband Marvin Pierce, the president of the McCall Corporation, which published McCall's magazine and Redbook . He married Pauline, a beautiful young socialite, in 1919. Their first child, Martha, was born the next year; the second, James, was born in 1921. At this time, Aleister Crowley inhabited what must have seemed a very different world, as he embarked upon the great communal experiment of the Abbey of Thelema in Italy.

Pauline, however, had a hidden side -- what we might call (without intending any judgment or insult) a wild side. We get a whiff of it from this Wikipedia entry: W magazine once described her as "beautiful, fabulous, critical, and meddling" and "a former beauty from Ohio with extravagant tastes"...
Rumors that Pauline had an affair with Dwight D. Eisenhower have never been verified... Still, gossip tabloids from the '40s often associated her with prominent men in politics and film.
