"One problem is that Iranian leaders are trying to delegitimize the reform movement by pretending that the reformers are puppets of foreign powers, so special discretion is required for anyone wanting to help the Iranian people."
Umm, but they are. Don't we all know this already?

No mater how many ways you say it, this is not a democracy.
You really should consider reading what a Republic and a Democracy is.
I should have said this form of government is a Constitutional Republic.
But I still would get modded down while ignorance and stupidity is praised.
Have your democracy, but this country needs to return to a Constitutional Republic.
democracy = FORCE and mob rule.
Republic = rule of law and FREEDOM!
The word "democracy" (Greek: ) combines the elements demos (, which means "people") and kratos (, which means "force" or "power"). In the words "monarchy" and "oligarchy", the second element arche means rule, leading, or being first.
Why use the wrong word for our form of government?
Maybe that is the problem.
Our Constitution is anti-democratic.
And what did our founding fathers say about treaties?
Well, the Republic was fun while it lasted.
Now, we can see a new world coming into view. A world in which there is the very real prospect of a new world order. In the words of Winston Churchill, a "world order" in which "the principles of justice and fair play... protect the weak against the strong..." A world where the United Nations, freed from cold war stalemate, is poised to fulfil the historic vision of its founders. A world in which freedom and respect for human rights find a home among all nations.
President Bush's speech to Congress
March 6, 1991
(7466) Apr 21, 2006 http://www.pagecache.info/pagecache/page7466/ (www.msnbc.msn.com) -- Attorney General Alberto Gonzales tells of child porn in graphic terms. ?I have seen pictures of older men forcing naked young girls to have anal sex. There are videos on the Internet of very young daughters forced to have intercourse and oral sex with their fathers," Gonzales said.
(7484) Apr 21, 2006 http://www.pagecache.info/pagecache/page7484/ (www.theinquirer.net) -- US plans more internet monitoring laws. Gonzales is sending to Congress a legislative package that includes greater penalties and "improved cooperation" from Internet service providers. The laws will mean that ISPs will have to monitor their systems for child porn or else face criminal action for failing to report it.
(11533) Aug 25, 2006 http://www.pagecache.info/pagecache/page11533/ (en.wikipedia.org) -- The National Child Victim Identification Program (NCVIP) is the world's largest database of child pornography, maintained by the Department of Justice. In early 2006, United States Attorney General Alberto Gonzales used images from the NCVIP database to view child pornography, as part of a campaign for his Project Safe Childhood initiative.
(12279) Sep 19, 2006 http://www.pagecache.info/pagecache/page12279/ (www.washingtonpost.com) -- Alberto Gonzales Wants Internet Records Saved. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said Tuesday that Congress should require Internet providers to preserve customer records, asserting that prosecutors need them to fight child pornography.
Remember former AG Alberto Gonzales, who watches the watchers?

"Contact?" Trash, pure trash. Right down there with "Twister".
Replace that with "Solaris (1972)".
Or "Dark Star" Bomb#20: In the beginning, there was darkness. And the darkness was without form, and void. Boiler: What the hell is he talking about? Bomb#20: And in addition to the darkness there was also me. And I moved upon the face of the darkness. And I saw that I was alone. Let there be light.
Or "Heavy Metal" Even "Space Balls"
And put "2001: A Space Oddessy" it's proper place at #1!
.. the government is the one to step in Underrated!
Also, WE are the government.
Not a Democracy but a Republic.
And corporations should have no legal rights but only privileges given to it by the State.
Sometimes we have to be reminded.

Power of Nightmares re-awakened
By Adam Curtis
Writer, Producer and Narrator, The Power of Nightmares
I know you have already been asked, but PLEASE, PLEASE, release the series on video or DVD
Peter Grant, London
The problem is that the films are full of archive film and music from a multitude of sources. The reason my series are normally not released on DVD is that it is prohibitively costly and a nightmare - no pun intended - to clear the rights.
But so many people have now asked for the series to be released in this form that I think it probably will happen.
NOTE: We are very keen that the programmes are made widely available including in America and although the main networks have shown little interest, we are confident that the programmes will be shown in some form. There are however no plans for a book or that the BBC should publish transcripts in addition to the unofficial ones already existing on the internet. Further news about the Power of Nightmares and in particular availability of a DVD or video will be published here.

Hello everybody, this is my first post. I use to live in Milwaukee and I didn't like the remodel they done. The section in the library where the computer books where is now the book sorting place when they get returned.
I spent many hours standing (no chairs) in this small section of the library never getting bothered except the few who would walk down to use the rest room.
This section was the d. d. s. classification 000 generalities to some UFO books. COMPUTER BOOKS! Reading about my old Atari 800XL and 6502 Assembly Language Programming.
Anyways here is a link and a slice http://www.startribune.com/stories/1557/4886667.ht ml"Katie Nelson, head of the audiovisual section at the Frank L. Weyenberg Library in Mequon, said the consensus there is that the companies ``emptied their vaults.''
Nelson said there was even mold growing on some of the 520 CDs received there, and less than half the shipment will be used."
Mold growing on some of the CDs, now that's funny!

A few pop gems such as OutKast's "Stankonia" and recordings from Cat Stevens and Otis Redding are also likely to be hot items, Gay said."
