On Dec. 15, the Sydney Morning Herald reported that Sydney bid officials gave several million dollars to African members of the IOC to get the 2000 games in their city. The proposal would set radiation exposure standards for the smelting of radioactively contaminated scrap. Currently, about 1.6 million tons of such scrap metal is awaiting disposal in the U.S., with about 45 thousand additional tons produced annually as a result of decommissioning and decontamination work at nuclear power and weapons facilities. Reduce, reuse, reradiate. Parrish Headlines in the business sections of local newspapers proclaim shock over how the bombing of Iraq has done nothing to boost the price of oil and oil company stocks.
Investors eagerly look forward to murder as a means of making money.
Remember, these guys train to kill at a distance surrounded by billions of dollars worth of taxpayer-purchased technology to keep them safe. Sacks, Mullins, and compatriots are treating the notification as a victory, and hoping that legal sanctions against them, and their refusal to abide by them, will draw further attention to the idiocy and cold-bloodedness of the sanctions policy. Britain's Law Lords ruled last Thursday to revoke their ruling to bar Pinochet from claiming immunity , because one of the 12 judges on the panel was found to have links to Amnesty International.

Apparently, working on human rights issues in your spare time can make you biased against Augusto Pinochet personally.
