In this photo released by World Wildlife Fund-National Geographic, two Thai fishermen show a 293-kilogram (646-pound) giant catfish they caught from the Mekong River in Chiang Khong district of Chiang Rai province, northern Thailand.

July is almost here. I have enough work planned this month to keep from from going under. I am putting my job search on hold for now. I may have a chance to get a route with Capital News. That would be a very nice, low stress job where I would be on my own. I could do something like that for the next 10 years. It would entail 3 hours work in the morning, and I would have the rest of the time to get my other projects moving. The route pays $300 a week. Not bad for 15 hours of work. Will just have to sit tight and wait. If it doesn't materialize by beginning of August, I will have to get serious about getting full time employment somewhere doing something.

SAN FRANCISCO (AFP) - The tyrannical father of an incestuous clan should be put to death for killing nine of his children in a grisly mass murder last year, a California jury recommended.

The jury of seven women and five men decided that Marcus Wesson, 58, should be executed for his crimes, after nine hours of deliberations over three days in the central California town of Fresno.

The same panel found Wesson guilty of the first-degree murder of nine of his children, who he was accused of shooting in the eye in the family's home in Fresno on March 12, 2004.

It is times like these I wish I were President of the United States. On the other hand, probably not a good idea. If I were elected President, the blood would be running chest high down the streets. It would be messy, but once the screams died down, things would be in order. First order of business would be calling back our National Guard reserves from Iraq. There is way too much business to take care of here at home. Let Iraq cut it's own throat. After they get done, then we can move back in. And this time, start pumping the oil in the North to full capacity. There should be 50 supertankers unloading at out docks everyday. But that is a different issue. One problem at a time. First order of business is to march the National Guard units straight into Death Row. It wouldn't take long to alleviate that problem. It would take longer to stuff the trash into body bags.

This scum bag Wesson, I would take care of personally right on national television. I would show the nation my compassionate side by sticking a 12 gauge shotgun up this clown's ass, and pulling the trigger. This is the only thing that these kinds of people understand. As long as the legal system keeps coddling them, the more stories we are going to be reading like this one in the future. You heard it here first.

Who knows why this freak decided to plead guilty. I think he is trying to do the right thing, and show people his good side. In the future, people will say, "wasn't that man a monster"? And others can chime in, "yes, he did some bad things, but in the end he found Jesus". "Yes, he did. God moves in mysterious ways you know." Of course! That must have been the reason all those innocent people were slaughtered. So this worthless piece of crap could be saved. Now it all makes sence. Praise the Lord!

WICHITA, Kan. - BTK ("Bind, Torture, Kill") suspect Dennis Rader pleaded guilty Monday to 10 counts of first-degree murder, admitting in a chillingly matter-of-fact voice to a series of slayings that terrorized the city beginning in the 1970s.

Rader, 60, of Park City, entered the guilty pleas as his trial was scheduled to begin Monday.

"I had never strangled anyone before, so I really didn't know how much pressure you had to put on a person or how long it would take," he told the court in describing his first killings in 1974, a couple and two children.

Prosecutors had said before the hearing that no plea deal had been made. Rader was arrested four months ago.

The onetime president of the church council at Christ Lutheran Church and Boy Scout leader, Rader admitted killing 10 people in the Wichita area between 1974 and 1991. The serial killer known as BTK taunted media and police with cryptic messages.

No sentencing date was immediately set. Rader will not face the death penalty because the crimes were committed before the state adopted a new capital punishment law.

Rader, wearing a beige coat and dark tie, told District Judge Gregory Waller that he understood the charges against him and that he was waiving his right to a jury trial.

"The defense worked with me real well," Rader said. "We went over it. I feel like I'm pretty happy with them."

Asked by Waller if he was pleading because he was guilty, Rader answered, "Yes, sir."

While we are on the subject of freaks, new books are being published on what is still the 20th Centuries most bizarre serial killing. That being the grisly slaying of prostitutes in the lower East Side of London in 1888 by the Grand Daddy of them all - Jack the Ripper. Will do a post on dear old Jack soon. Here is an interesting phoptograph. He looks crazy to me.

A handout photograph, taken in the late 1880s and released June 27, 2005, shows Sir John Williams, ancestor of Tony Williams, the author of a new book on Jack the Ripper. In his new book entitled 'Uncle Jack', Williams proposes that Jack the Ripper was his ancestor John Williams, a gynecologist to Queen Victoria's children and the founder of the National Library of Wales.

I am presenting this segment of a DoD News Briefing because it shows clearly the conflict that has continued since the war in Iraq started. The White House Administration has one view of reality, and the Military has another. The Administartion shapes events to their political agenda. The Military looks at events as they are. Read closely the tone of exuberance from Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld, and the cautious optimism of Air Force Gen. Myers. From the beginning, the Military told the White House the realities of the dangers involved. Their military expertise fell on deaf ears. Almost one year later, the accuracy of General Myer's assessment is almost prophetic. If you would like to read this briefing in it's entirety, including the follow-up questions, click on the Department of Defense link. This is an excellent document. The questions raised on who decided the number of US troops to be used is a must read. The conflict of political agenda vs military neccessity staggers the imagination.

SEC. RUMSFELD: Good afternoon. Since March 2003, when Saddam Hussein's regime defied the international community for the final time and the coalition moved to hold him and his regime accountable for his long list of crimes against humanity, regime remnants have joined with terrorists to try to defeat the liberated Iraqi people.

First, the extremists, the Fedayeen Saddam, believed they could stop the coalition forces in their advance to Baghdad. Instead, the coalition forces took control of the country in one of the speediest and most skillful displays of military power in recent times.

Former regime elements then thought that they could ignite a civil war, if you will, and foment a nationwide uprising. Instead, the Sunnis and Shi'as and the Kurds are today working together in the Iraqi interim government to try to help rebuild their country.

Next, the extremists thought they could derail the handover of power to Iraq's interim government. Instead, the handover occurred a couple of days ahead of schedule.

Now they've adopted still another strategy, and they're targeting Iraqis who are cooperating with the new Iraqi government. They're attacking the Iraqi infrastructure. Their new strategy is proving them very visibly to be enemies of the Iraqi people, and they're losing; they're losing because hope is spreading and progress is continuing. There are many positive signs; a couple that people tend to ignore. One is the strength of the Iraqi currency, and the other is the fact that they've just opened a stock market.

Importantly, courageous leaders continue to step forward to help lead their country. Thousands of Iraqis are volunteering continuously to serve in the various Iraqi security forces. The damaged infrastructure is being repaired. The new Iraqi prime minister has announced a series of measures to strengthen security and to defeat the insurgents. His government has been welcomed by the international community, and importantly, it's being welcomed by the Iraqi people.

The Saddam Hussein regime needed to be confronted. The United Nations had passed some 17 resolutions demanding disclosure of its weapons programs and that Iraq comply with international law. Saddam defied them all. And the Iraqi people have an opportunity today to earn their freedom and to fashion an Iraqi free state that will be a constructive neighbor in that important region.

The Iraq that's rising today is not the one that the Saddamists envisioned, and it's not the one that will seek alliances with our most deadly enemies.

Nearly three years ago extremists killed 3,000 people on American soil. The hard truth is that if they'd been able to, they would have killed many times that.

Today a country that once shared a common cause with terrorists is now an ally in the effort to defeat the extremists. And the American people can be enormously proud of the young men and women in uniform and our coalition partners, who are contributing every day in a very difficult task but what will be a victory.

GEN. MYERS: Thank you, Mr. Secretary, and good afternoon.

I wish to extend my sincere condolences to the families of our forces who have lost their loved ones or been wounded in the past several days. I think we must keep in the forefront of our minds the dedication and sacrifice not only of our brave men and women in the armed forces and our civilians that are serving over there, but also their families that support them.

Just 24 days into sovereignty, commanders on the ground in Iraq are reporting a sense of a hopeful future from the Iraqi people. This story is a positive sign of progress toward a more stable Iraq.

But let me be clear, on the other hand, that the threat posed by insurgents remains very real. As the secretary said, they continue their attacks, attacks on the coalition, and have recently increased their attacks on Iraqi forces and civilians. Since the transition of sovereignty in Iraq, insurgents have killed approximately 100 security forces, Iraqi security forces, and Iraqi civilians, and about 250 Iraqis have been injured. Government leaders continue be targets of attack, and yet, as the secretary said, many brave Iraqis are stepping forward to fill those key leadership positions.

The U.S. and its coalition partners continue to focus on supporting Iraq's political transition, helping set the stage for national elections at the end of the year, and equipping and training and mentoring the Iraqi security forces. Those Iraqi security forces are making progress. As of this month, 39 of 45 battalions of the Iraqi National Guard were manned above 75 percent, and they are currently conducting joint patrols throughout Iraq with coalition and Iraqi police forces.

Switching to Afghanistan, in Afghanistan, coalition forces are aggressively and continue to aggressively seek out the remnants of the Taliban and al Qaeda members and continue to conduct security and stability operations to support voter registration for the October presidential election.

To date, over 75 percent of the eligible Afghan population have registered to vote, and they continue to register at the rate of about 125,000 Afghan citizens each day.

And with that, we'll take your questions.

LOS ANGELES - Paul Winchell, a ventriloquist, inventor and children's TV show host best known for creating the lispy voice of Winnie the Pooh's animated friend Tigger, has died. He was 82.
Winchell died Friday morning in his sleep at his Moorpark home, Burt Du Brow, a television producer and close family friend, told the Los Angeles Times.

Over six decades, Winchell was a master ventriloquist — bringing dummies Jerry Mahoney and Knucklehead Smiff to life on television.
Winchell was born in New York City on Dec. 21, 1922. He contracted polio at age six and overcame speech impediments as he learned to throw his own voice.

A renaissance man, Winchell was an inventor who held 30 patents, including one for an early artificial heart he built in 1963 and then donated to the University of Utah for research. Dr. Robert Jarvik and other University of Utah researchers later became well-known for the Jarvik-7, which was implanted into patients after 1982.

Welcome to "the Wall" Paul, you deserve to be here. You changed the world, and tried to make it a better place. You made children laugh, and adults wonder. This is the purpose of one's life. You are in good company here. Sorry you have to share the spotlight with the insane psycho killers and the wierdos. But without Darkness, there is no Light.

I broke down and had two brats yesterday. Man, did they taste good! Had them on some pesto bread. One with horseradish on the side, and the other with yellow mustard. I even had some sour cream and onion potato chips. I can get used to going 5-6 days eating nothing but fruit and vegetables, along with drinking my juice concoctions. I burned a little excess fat off my frame, but I have to keep working on it. Buy August 10th, my 50th birthday, I want to be looking "tight". I will defeinetly post a birthday photo. I have to exercise and work up a better sweat if I am to burn this spare tire off. LIke I said before, I always did have a big gut, but it has always been muscular. And underneath the extra layer of fat I seem to have grown, it still is.

Autosurf-4-Profit & Surf4Retirement are COMBINING DATABASES! Latest update: 6-21-2005

Hello my name is Carolyn I am Tammy's cousin & have been asked to give you this update. As many of you probably know Tammy has been under much stress over the past year trying to manage the two sites along with the troubles of an alcoholic fiance & trying to raise a teenager and a toddler. These factors are the reason Tammy has collapsed. Doctors say She will recover however she needs to re-adjust/eliminate the stress in her life! This will take a great deal of time so I am learning about the sites with the help of her oldest son & together we are managing to keep the investments earning & will do our best to update you as soon as we know more about the status of the sites.We APOLOGIZE for the DELAYS & THANK YOU for YOUR PATIENCE & Understanding!! ALL MUST fill out the form located HERE.

I have to laugh when I read this because I am involved with crazy "Surf For Cash" programs. I'm not involved with these two. They are the latest and greatest pyramid scam the Internet has ever seen. One of the programs I am working has accumulated over $6 million in membership payments. Charles Ponzi is probably tapping Satan on the shoulder and telling him, "see, I invented this. Look how far it has come!" And Satan is telling him, "yes Charles, why do you think you are down here?"

It would take several lengthy pages to describe what these programs are, and how they work. The scripts to build one of these sites are going for under $200, and everyone thinks they can get rich administering these things. They are complicated as hell, and the technical expertise to work with the programing is substantial. People think they run themselves, they don't.

I will say this, they beat Paid To Reads (PTR) all to hell. And, if you can find some good ones, and stick a few hundred dollars into them - the more "shares" you have, the more you will make each day surfing the required number of pages - you will make some money. There is no guarantee you will be paid a dime, but the potential is there. These things are springing up like mushrooms.

If the Administrators of the sites I am working don't hop on a plane to Rio with all the loot, I will have got all my investment capital back, and have an income of $500 per month coming in. That is for sitting in front of my computer for less than one hour a day and looking at web pages pop up on a 30 second timer. As of right now, I have a substantial investment. The magic date is August 10. (my birthday) If the shit doesn't hit the fan by then, the easy cash will be rolling, and it will be all mine every month till these programs disappear. I won't have a dime invested in them. All the cash in them will be profits made. And the cash generated from these profits will be free and clear, no risk. Being a gambler at heart, I had to give this a shot. I will tell you this, one of the programs I am working pay a 44% return on your "shares" in 12 days. I know it sounds too good to be true, but it is. I have been paid once already. You put in $300. Twelve days later, you have $432. How do they do it? Some are investing heavily in the Forex Currency Exchange. Some are investing in commodities, or stock options. The bulk of the money HAS to come from new members coming in each month to pay the first people. (Ponzi) This program I mentioned is on a 12 day cycle. Most are on a 40-50 day cycle. That gives them enough time to get new cash flows in to pay the members from the prior expiration cycle. Like In said, it is complicated. I LOVE this 12 day cycle program, and that is where the bulk, if not all of my money is going to come from. As long as they don't fold, I will make "hay while the sun shines". I need this income to live on for now. I have to get a real job soon. One other threat to these programs, besides skipping town with the cash, is the Government. I think eventually, they will step in and shut them down. A good friend of mine is something of an Internet expert on these types of programs. He has been involved with everything get righ quick scheme that has come down the Internet pipe for the last seven or eight years. He knows how long their life spans were. He believes these things have a one year to two year life span ahead of them. This is still a new phenomena. Not a great many people know about these things. The potential to have new cash flowing into the reputable programs is great. And as long as I am at the eye of the pyramid, and not at the bottom, I have a chance to say in the years to come, "yes, I was one of the few people who made a fortune on those crazy Surf For Cash programs!"

Toby Hawkins kisses his son Brennan Hawkins as they arrive at Children's Hospital, Tuesday, June 21, 2005, in Salt Lake City. Brennan, the 11-year-old boy who vanished from a Boy Scout camp, was found alive and in good condition Tuesday after an intensive four-day search of the rugged Utah wilderness.

I shouldn't bad mouth the kid, he looks like he feels bad for getting lost. But, I was a Boy Scout. You joined the Scouts to learn how to survive in the woods. You had a canteen with you at all times. You learned how to forage for food. You learned how to walk a straight line in one direction. You learned how to build a fire without matches. The Scout's motto is "Be Prepared." If I were the kid's parents, I'd question what the Scout Master was teaching my boys. Things probably have changed since I was a Scout. They probably sit around with coloring books now, and learn how to be politically correct.

This week is a real ass buster. I had a hard time moving today. I wanted to go to the store and buy a steak! I'm sticking to my guns. I'll transform myself back into fighting shape if it kills me.

June 20, 2005

Today is the beginning of a very long week. I am going on a mental holiday. No, I am not planning on turning off my common sense, and go nuts. I am going to take these next seven days off in the sense that I am not going to concern myself with thoughts like "what kind of job should I try and get?" "what am I supposed to do?" "what's going to happen to me?" ...

I went to the groccery store this morning and bought $60 worth of fruit and vegetables. I have a juice machine, and I will fast from eating solid food. I will have a protein shake at night before I go to bed. This will sustain me. I am taking my vitamins and minerals. I will eat an orange or two, perhaps an apple. This will be the only solids I plan on eating. If it isn't a fruit or a vegetable, I won't be eating it. All protein and carbohydrates will come from my shake.

I will run each day, going a little bit longer in distance. I will ride my exercise bike, going a bit farther in mileage. I will start to stretch slowly, but continuously through out the day. I will do Yoga. As the week progresses, I will intensify my physical activities pushing myself to the edge of physical and mental endurance. I will mediatate.

It took me almost 45 minutes to prepare my juice for the day.
This is what I prepared:
One bag of carrots
One bag of cellery
One bell pepper (orange)
Six small apples
Three nectarines

This amount of mass produced approximately 2 quarts of juice, no pulp. I think 2 quarts is enough to live on. I can feel a rush coming over me as I write! It's like my body is buzzing, very strange. Must be the straight shot of all the essentials in the juice going directly into my digestive sysytem.

By the end of the seven days, I will be stronger mentally, and physically. I hope to trim off a few inches of fat that is hanging around my gut. I intend to see more definition in my muscle tone.

This is what I know I have to do. I have the luxury of not having to hold down a full time job at this present moment. Now is the time to do this, and get back on track once and for all.

Today must be my lucky day. I have been informed I have won 1.2 million (British Pounds) in a UK Lottery I never entered. Isn't that special? And this poor unfortunate soul who can't seem to find his ass with two hands had requested my help ...

Dear Friend,
Please bear with me for sending this letter to you surprisingly.
My name is Mr Tijan Kabba, a young man originally from Liberia in West Africa.

My sole purpose of contacting you is for you to assist me in selling in
your country or elsewhere of my rough (uncutted) diamonds which weighs
14,220 carats,from (3-45 carats), (3kg gross) on the
scale, ("H"VS-1quality), all rough and worths about (US$20Million).

The diamonds was deposited by my late father in a holding firm and it
is waiting for my order to be transfered as I am the "NEXT OF KIN" to
the deposit as it is indicated in all the depositional documents. I am presently living in Dakar Senegal.

Wish to hear from you soon. Bye and God bless.

Yours truly Tijan Kabba.

I dedicated a great deal of thought, and electronic bytes to the Micheal Jackson trial. I have elaborated on the injustice of privilege in our capitalistic society. I have to let it go now. I can not let myself be consumed with this. Life is not fair. If I ponder this dilemma to any greater degree, it will make me sad. Sadness leads to despair. Despair leads to bitterness. Biterness leads to hate. Hate leads to death of the Spirit. My Spirit needs healing. I can not dwell on all the wrongs that this Life dishes out to myself, and the masses in general. I am realizing once again that people are bitter for many of the same reasons I am. That doesn't justify their response to it, namely treating others like crap, myself included. That is what being a black belt is about. You have to be stronger than the average person. Stronger mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Madison Avenue has presented a Martial Artist as someone who can pound the snot out of anyone at any time. That is a small, and insignificant piece of the whole picture. That is why I have to do what I know I have to do. I have to present the possibilities to others on what being a true Martial Artist is really all about. Pardon my vanity. You have to remember I am a Leo.

SANTA MARIA, Calif. - A jury acquitted Michael Jackson on Monday of molesting a 13-year-old cancer survivor at his Neverland ranch, vindicating the pop star who insisted he was the victim of mother-and-son con artists and a prosecutor with a vendetta. Jurors also acquitted him of conspiring to imprison his accuser and the boy's family at the storybook estate — a total legal victory but one that may do little to improve his bizarre image.

I've said all along he would walk, or should I say "moonwalk" straight into his limousine, and his privledged lifestyle. I won't rehash the reasons. I've stated clearly, and with great precision why Micheal Jackson would be found not guilty. It isn't his fault that the rich and powerful have dominion over the masses. This is the nature of the Beast. Things have been this way since time began. As I have said, I hope he moves to France and joins the rest of the elite scum who have sought refuge there.

Time to move a head with what I need to do. They say one man can change the world. I believe that is true. I don't know if the change will be permanent or not. I think it is more accurate to say that one man can bring social injustice to light, and force the world to see it. That doesn't guarantee permanent change. In fact it is a given that it won't, but to bring it into focus is to embrace the Light. Without this, we are doomed to slavery.

One last piece of interesting news concerning the Jackson verdict. It all boiled down to whom they "liked" better. Jackson is a nice, but troubled man who likes to play with young boys. The accuser's Mother is a cunt. I guese they showed her. They let the pedophile walk.

Jurors remained guarded about details of their 30 hours of deliberations over seven days but offered some insight during a news conference, saying they were irritated by the testimony of the accuser's mother, who at one point snapped her fingers at them.

"I disliked it intensely when she snapped her fingers at us," said one juror, a woman. She said she thought to herself, "Don't snap your fingers at me, lady." The jurors were not identified.

I have been trying to get something going I can call a "career", but it hasn't happened. I tried working for this transportation company. They will not pay you unless you are actually driving. So I sat around, along with the rest of the drivers, for 10 hours a day waiting for work. After four days of that horse shit, I had accumulated 17.5 hours of actual pay. Needless to say, on Friday I politely told them I had financial responsibilities that had to be met, and that I did not believe this job would meet them. I was also told the company would provide training for me so I could test for my Commercial Driver's License (CDL). They have vans and school buses they use to transport adults, and school children. I would need a CDL license, with an "S" endorsement (school bus) to drive the bus. I would also need a "P" endorsement (passenger) to drive a van with 16 or more people. This company was sending drivers out without the proper endorsement to transport 16 or more people in the vans. I talked to some of them, and they didn't even know there is a restriction! During the four days I sat around, I was not even getting bus training. Walking away from this flea bag opperation was a good move.

I am not overly concerned about work at the moment. I borrowed some more money to keep me a float. I realize I will have to get a steady income rolling in soon. I can always do day labor if I have to. There are jobs available.

I bought myself a pair of cross-training tennis shoes. I am going to start jogging tomorrow. I hate to run, but I have to incorproate arobic exercise into my training. At my age, I will get a roll of fat around my middle very soon if I don't start burning it off. Strength training is not going to burn that fat. Strength training will define muscle. I also have to stretch to keep my ligaments and muscles toned and supple. Being limber will help prevent tears in my muscle fibers, and reduce stress in the joints.

Once I get back into shape, I will start my karate full time again. I knew the climb back up the mountain was going to be difficult! My "career" is having a small class of students who want to climb the mountain with me. This is what I need to do. Any job I have to earn a living will be fine as long as I have this to give me purpose.

I feel good about the future despite the crap I have been dealing with. It is my own doing. I will not find peace if I am neglecting my Destiny. And, sadly enough, I have been.

I am making a committment to do what is ever neccessary to get myself back into some reasonable shape that is needed to accomplish these goals.

Since I stopped playing my Magic Badger 5 numbers daily, I have deleted the Badger 5 site on webstonne.com I will keep tabs on it, and when it does get up to $60-80 grand, I'll pop a few dollars into the drawing. I still have this gut feeling that I will win a piece of the Wisconsin Lottery in some fashion. I even dream of winning a piece of the Powerball Lottery. That maybe a pipe-dream, but stranger things have happened.

He is a picture of me standing in front of the World's Largest Grill. Unfortunately, the World Record for the number of brats consumed over the Labor Day Holiday was not broken this year. I don't know if the weather had anything to do with that. I suspect it did. People are cutting back on luxury spending, and this might of hurt the Festival also.

The weather is fantastic today. It is 80 degrees, the sun is shining.

Time to get serious about a lot of things. It isn't too late to dream, and reach for the stars. I haven't been doing that. Been stuck in a rut, and have stagnated. The only thing that is going to change things around is my faith, and my will. I know what to do, I just haven't cared about doing it. That is a poor outlook to have. Sure, life isn't pleasant all the time. Sometimes, it isn't pleasant at all. Time to work on the mind, the body, and the spirit. Life has been testing me, and I have meet the challenge half ass. I have to do better.
