News & Events - June 2007

I know about the murder suicide that occured over Memorial Day Weekend in Boonville. I read somewhere on the internet that there was a similar incident that took place nine yrs. earlier in Boonville also...just wondering if that is factual and where I could find more info.

I wonder if this is the level of inaccurate reporting that is being relied upon by the so-called "intellectual" McCann supporters on this website..
The Sun editor states [and I quote verbatim]

1) That Ben "Fordham" went missing in Crete... doesn't he mean Ben Needham?

2) That Ben's mother is looking at every 22 year old in the street wondering if that was her son. Thats strange considering Ben would now be 17 years old and not 22 years old?

3) That Madeleine McCanns parents were 40 Yards / 36 Metres AWAY FROM THE HOTEL ROOM - gosh doesn't the distance diminish??
... amongst other inaccuracies.......

Now let me see who was the most articulate and reasoned interviewee - the writer for the Independent or the former Sun Editor???? Who proved to be the overbearing bully during this interview with Jeremy Paxman..... ??

Is this the sort of inaccurate dross [emanating from the tabloids] that people are relying upon for their stories.....

The day before yesterday, the news report of the the two humpback whales was just about to be aired when my doorbell rang. By the time I got rid of the unexpected visitor, the report was over. I've heard nothing further on the story. Did the mother and her calf make it safely back to ocean?This was such a touching story; I'm sorry I've missed the final chapter. Can anyone please tell me what happened?
Thanks! -RKO- 06/01/07

MSNBC took polls of residents of Coastal towns and asked them about the upcoming hurricane season and how they were preparing. Im assuming there were several different polls taken, as these don't equal 100%. But check this out

After being told that 13-17 named storms would come about this season, 3-5 becoming major hurricanes, and at least one hitting the U.S. this is what people said:

88% Said they have taken no steps in fortifying their homes.

16% Said that if told to evacuate they would refuse.

53% Said they didn't think they were vulnerable, so they wouldn't prepare.

61% Said they never thought of getting a hurricane survival kit.

What is wrong with these people!? Was Katrina not bad enough? I guaruntee none of these people lost someone on that hurricane. How can people be so stupid and so naive?

They finally get it.....but we'll have to see if they continue to fight Al-Qaeda and not America. If they continue to fight Al-Qaeda and not America, we need to give them a pass and we need to leave after Al-Qaeda is destroyed.

Can I get an Amen?

(news article) http://news.yahoo.com/s/csm/20070601/ts_csm/atoll

Senior Military Analyst Michael O'Hanlon in Washington:

"If that [a sustained level of violence from insurgents and terrorists] continues, what it means is that you're not actually weakening them, but you're just allowing them to regenerate, and they are capable of doing so...If the intensity continues ... then it looks like a strategy that is ultimately futile...It is possible that you could have progress and not see US fatality rates go down for a while, but I think it's relatively hard to imagine that we would start losing 100 people a month for the summer and be able to term this strategy successful."
