? Alek's Christmas Lights Webcam
? Alek's Christmas Lights Webcam: "Since websites in England, Germany, and Poland have mentioned the Christmas Webcam, I want those fans from across the Pond to be able to use it ... so I've extended the hours to 2400 MST (GMT-7) for tonight (Saturday, Dec 11th) ONLY ... so those folks won't have to get up so early in the morning to join the fun - I DID clear this with my neighbors BTW! ;-)
And how 'bout nominating the Christmas Webcam as one of the TopTen for me! "

We might call it the lawsuit the U.S. media forgot to tell us about, because — although the suit was filed here in the U.S. and although it was filed by the widow of a man killed on 9/11/2001 and although it was filed against the president of the most powerful country on earth — you had to go to New Zealand to read about it.

Critics charge that the Bush Administration is purging, censoring, and manipulating scientific information in order to push forward its pro-business, anti-environmental agenda. In Washington, D.C. more than 60 of the nation’s top scientists, including 20 Nobel laureates, leading medical experts, and former federal agency directors, issued a statement on February 18, 2004 accusing the Bush Administration of deliberately distorting scientific results for political ends and calling for regulatory and legislative action to restore scientific integrity to federal policymaking.

Attorney General John Ashcroft is seeking to strike down one of the world’s oldest human rights laws, the Alien Torts Claim Act (ATCA) which holds government leaders, corporations, and senior military officials liable for human rights abuses taking place in foreign countries. Organizations such as Human Rights Watch (HRW) vehemently oppose the removal of this law, as it is one of the few legal defenses victims of human rights violations can claim against powerful organizations such as governments or multinational corporations. The attempt to dismiss the law comes less than a year after the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Unocal Corporation could be held liable for human rights abuses committed against Burmese peasants near a pipeline the company was building. By attempting to throw out this law, the Bush Administration is effectively opening the door for human rights abuses to continue under the veil of foreign relations.
