Abstract: The heat generated inside our planet is predominantly of radionic (nuclear) origin. Hence, Earth in its entirety can be considered considered a slow nuclear reactor with its solid ”inner core” providing a major contribution to the total energy output. Since radionic heat is generated in the entire volume and cooling can only occur at the surface, the highest temperature inside Earth occurs at the center of the inner core. Overheating the center of the inner core reactor due to the so-called greenhouse effect on the surface of Earth may cause a meltdown condition, an enrichment of nuclear fuel and...

WASHINGTON, (AP) -- An anti-war Democratic congressman is demanding to know why there were uniformed Defense Department personnel watching House proceedings from a public gallery Thursday, who they were and what they were doing. "If they were here on official duty, this was an abhorrent misallocation of our military resources at a time of war," Northern California Rep. Pete Stark asserted Friday in a letter to Defense Secretary Robert Gates. Stark, an 18-term incumbent known for his liberal positions and outbursts of temper, said he observed the contingent of 20 or so officers, apparently Army generals, in the gallery for...

Giuliani's Fruitcake ad

Rudy Giuliani today released this rather odd holiday TV ad which is running in New Hampshire (evidently he has not pulled completely off the air in the Granite State) that features a cameo from…Santa? The script: Giuliani: “There are many things I wish for this holiday season. I wish for peace with strength. Secure borders. A government that spends less than it takes in. Lower taxes for our businesses and families. And I really hope, that all of the presidential candidates can just get along.” Santa: “Ho, ho, ho, ho. I was with you right up until that last one....

Congressman: Bush amused by war dead Democrat says troops 'get their heads blown off for the president's amusement' Rep. Pete Stark, D-Calif., speaking to House today The House GOP leader is calling on Democratic Rep. Pete Stark of California to apologize for stating during debate today that President Bush derives amusement from sending young Americans to Iraq to kill innocent people and then "get their heads blown off." Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Stark should "retract his statement and apologize to the House, our commander-in-chief, and the families of our soldiers and commanders fighting terror overseas." During debate on the...

NEW YORK - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad questioned the official version of the Sept. 11 attacks and defended the right to cast doubt on the Holocaust in a tense appearance Monday at Columbia University, whose president accused the hard-line leader of behaving like "a petty and cruel dictator." Ahmadinejad smiled at first but appeared increasingly agitated, decrying the "insults" and "unfriendly treatment." Columbia President Lee Bollinger and audience members took him to task over Iran's human-rights record and foreign policy, as well as Ahmadinejad's statements denying the Holocaust and calling for the disappearance of Israel. "Mr. President, you exhibit all...

ORLANDO, Florida — Former astronaut Lisa Nowak told a detective she came to Orlando to meet her rival for the affections of a fellow astronaut because she wanted to know where she stood in the bizarre love triangle, according to a police interview made public Monday. A 72-page transcript of the interview conducted after her February arrest, with portions redacted, was released by the State Attorney's Office. In it, Orlando Police Detective Chris Becton asks Nowak about why she wanted to meet Navy Capt. Colleen Shipman in a parking lot at the Orlando International Airport. Nowak, 44, is accused of...

Secular groups applauded Rep. Pete Stark for publicly acknowledging he does not believe in a supreme being. The declaration, they said, makes the California Democrat the highest-ranking elected official - and first congressman - to publicly claim to be an atheist. The American Humanist Association took out an ad in the Washington Post on Tuesday, congratulating Stark's stance. "With Stark's courageous public announcement of his nontheism, it is our hope that he will become an inspiration for others who have hidden their conclusions for far too long," the group's executive director, Roy Speckhardt, said in a statement. Stark's beliefs garnered...

Mr Bush said "terrible want" still exists in Latin America US President George W Bush has unveiled a social aid programme to alleviate the plight of the region's poor, two days before a tour of Latin America. Millions of dollars will be spent on education, housing and health care. In a speech, Mr Bush described poverty in the region as "a scandal" that had caused some people to question the value of democracy. The Bush administration has been criticised by opposition Democrats for neglecting Latin America. Correspondents say Washington is adjusting to the election of increasing numbers of left-wing...

Fruitcakes catapulted into the air ST. PAUL, Minn., Dec. 1 (UPI) -- Some people are fond of throwing caution to the wind but in a number of U.S. towns, residents send old fruitcakes into the air. Long a favorite subject of ridicule, holiday fruitcakes of all shapes and sizes turn into cannon fodder each winter in Colorado, Minnesota and Wisconsin, The St. Paul (Minn.) Pioneer Press reports. A Pepin, Wis. blacksmith built a special catapult four years ago to rocket good, bad and dried-out fruitcakes at a toy elf named "Dippy." Tom Latane says he has learned that cakes weighing...

Physics prof calls 9/11 conspiracist 'fruitcake' 'Since he can't evaluate the evidence presented, he shouldn't have an opinion' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted: September 6, 2006 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2006 WorldNetDaily.com A University of Wisconsin professor who works with 9-11 conspiracist Kevin Barrett says he's a "fruitcake" who is too biased in favor of Islam to teach a class on the subject. Barrett, a Muslim convert, was recently cleared by the college to teach a course this fall titled, "Islam: Religion and Culture." Like many Muslims, he contends the 9-11 attacks were an "inside job" carried out by Bush administration officials and...

Day 1996 photo that they believe indicates Karr was in Atlanta when the 6-year-old girl was killed in Colorado. Gary Harris, an attorney for Karr's father, Wexford Karr, said Tuesday that the photo is of John Mark Karr's three children, along with a newborn nephew. While John Mark Karr is not actually in the photo, family members "have no recollection of him missing a Christmas until the last five years," Harris said. "They know that if his children were there, he would have been there," the attorney said. "They would have remembered it if they all had shown up and...

(3a) "And there appeared another wonder in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon,..." Red is the ancient color of evil. Red and black in combination symbolizes far greater evil. The red dragon is both Satan/The Serpent, and the body politic spiritual construct of the known world in the fifteenth century. It is both theological and secular, but primarily it is a cabal bent on world domination. Again, we are dealing with non-linear time....

Most of my friends hate Superman. He's too powerful, they say. Too indestructible. Too fast and too strong for his own good. Superman is just too damn super. The problem a lot of people have with Superman is the same problem we have with the modern definition of heroes. Nowadays we overuse the term. This past May, News Statesman magazine ranked Bill Gates as number eight in an article detailing 50 "Heroes of our time," right above the Dalai Lama. I hate to break this to everyone, but Bill Gates is not a hero. In 2000 a man worth nearly...

Some Democrats, breaking ranks from their leadership, today said the death of terrorist leader Abu Musab Zarqawi in Iraq was a stunt to divert attention from an unpopular and hopeless war. "This is just to cover Bush's [rear] so he doesn't have to answer" for Iraqi civilians being killed by the U.S. military and his own sagging poll numbers, said Rep. Pete Stark, California Democrat. "Iraq is still a mess -- get out."

THE assassination of Tony Blair by a suicide bomber would be morally justified as revenge for the War in Iraq, according to George Galloway. The Respect MP for Bethnal Green and Bow said that such an attack would be “morally equivalent to ordering the deaths of thousands of innocent people in Iraq — as Mr Blair did”. He was speaking during an interview for GQ magazine with Piers Morgan, the former Daily Mirror Editor. Morgan asked: “Would the assasination of, say, Tony Blair by a suicide bomber, if there were no other casualties, be justified as revenge for the war...

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- A California lawmaker said he fears Tom Cruise as father figure could be setting a dangerous precedent. Democratic Assemblyman Ted Lieu is proposing a state ban on the sale of ultrasound machines to anyone but licensed medical professionals. Lieu said there's no medical reason for an untrained person to use an ultrasound machine, and he worries because doctors say putting the technology in the wrong hands could harm a fetus. Cruise said he bought an ultrasound machine so he could see images of his then-unborn child with Katie Holmes. "If someone sees Tom Cruise buy one, they...

WAUKESHA, Wis. Lance Nesta did what many people do when receiving a fruitcake _ he set it aside, only to rediscover it more than 40 years later in his mother's attic. Nesta couldn't resist taking a peek at the cake, still in its original tin and wrapped in paper. "I was amazed that it hadn't changed at all," he said. Nesta's two aunts sent him the fruitcake in November 1962 while he was stationed in Alaska with the Army. "I opened it up and didn't know what to do with it," Nesta said.

Belafonte: Bush kept him from King rites Legendary entertainer and civil rights activist Harry Belafonte on Tuesday explained his absence from Coretta Scott King's funeral. Belafonte told reporters before a speech at Case Western Reserve University that President Bush influenced the King family to disinvite him from the funeral in suburban Atlanta on Feb. 7. Belafonte, known to be a friend of Martin Luther King Jr., said he was told about the decision the day before the funeral, at which he had been scheduled to speak. The King children made the final decision, Belafonte said, but they were "fiercely intimidated...

Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan has canceled three visits to Colorado after emotions over her protest outside President Bush's ranch boiled over at a church and college campus. A Glenwood Springs church voted Thursday not to allow Sheehan to give a speech scheduled for later this month after some members threatened to leave the church if she came. Church member Mo Barz said he thinks it is inappropriate for the church to host a political speaker. "I was definitely against having her," he said. "I felt all along the church should rescind any agreement they had to have her be there."...

CRAWFORD, Texas -- Iraq war protester Cindy Sheehan said Friday she plans to expand her focus to Congress, starting with House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, a Bush ally and fellow Texan. Sheehan has been camped outside the president's Crawford, Texas, ranch this month, seeking a meeting with him to discuss the U.S. presence in Iraq, where her son was killed in 2004. She plans to begin a bus tour on Thursday to the White House to campaign for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 06, 2005 Dr. Dean's misdirected outrage National Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean frequently blames the world's ailments on President Bush in particular and conservative Republicans in general, at times with such fervor that even fellow Democrats express their misgivings about his rash rhetoric. The former Vermont governor, a physician, delivered a blatant misdiagnosis last week in blaming "right wing" jurists for a controversial June Supreme Court ruling on eminent domain. Expressing outrage over that decision, which stretched government's reach in "taking" private property to unprecedented lengths, Gov. Dean told the College Democrats of America convention in Washington: "The...

LONDON (AFP) - An artist appealed for the return of an artwork that consisted of a bottle of water on a plinth, saying he feared it had been stolen and then drunk. US artist Wayne Hill, had devised the artwork, a two-litre (3.5-pint) clear plastic bottle filled with melted ice from the Antarctic, to highlight the dangers of global warming. Entitled "Weapon of Mass Destruction" it was on show at an arts festival in Devon, southwest England. "It looked like an ordinary bottle of water, but it was on a plinth, labelled, described and in the programme of the whole...
