Government Ethics Office Applauds Trump's Business Announcement, Ignores Potential Conflicts

by JANE C. TIMM

The Office of Government Ethics on Wednesday cheered on Donald Trump's announcement that he'd be leaving his business "in total" to focus on the presidency with the energy of excited fan — while ignoring the fact that Trump's announcement answered very few questions about his own potential conflict of interest problems.

The office started its uncharacteristic tweet storm with "We can't repeat enough how good this total divestiture will be."

They then went on to add that the move was "Brilliant! Divestiture is good for you, very good for America!"

In total, the OGE's Twitter sent nine tweets that applauded the decision, sentiments at times started with or punctuated by a "Bravo!"










From 9/20/1981 ( premiere US TV series pilot "Code Red" ) To 2/28/1997 is 5640 days

5640 = 2820 + 2820

From 11/2/1965 ( my birth date in Antlers Oklahoma USA and my birthdate as the known official United States Marshal Kerry Wayne Burgess and active duty United States Marine Corps officer ) To 7/23/1973 ( Monica Lewinsky ) is 2820 days

Grounds for Impeachment, No. I

From independent counsel Kenneth Starr's report to the House on President Clinton. Some of the language in these documents is sexually explicit.

I. There is substantial and credible information that President Clinton lied under oath as a defendant in Jones v. Clinton regarding his sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky.

(1) He denied that he had a "sexual relationship" with Monica Lewinsky.

(2) He denied that he had a "sexual affair" with Monica Lewinsky.

(3) He denied that he had "sexual relations" with Monica Lewinsky.

(4) He denied that he engaged in or caused contact with the genitalia of "any person" with an intent to arouse or gratify (oral sex performed on him by Ms. Lewinsky).

(5) He denied that he made contact with Monica Lewinsky's breasts or genitalia with an intent to arouse or gratify.


(ix) Friday, February 28, 1997

Ms. Lewinsky testified that her next sexual encounter with the President occurred on Friday, February 28, 1997, in the early evening.(40) The President initiated this encounter by having his secretary Betty Currie call Ms. Lewinsky to invite her to the White House for a radio address. After the address, Ms. Lewinsky and the President kissed by the bathroom. The President unbuttoned her dress and fondled her breasts, first with her bra on and then directly. He touched her genitalia through her clothes, but not directly, on this occasion. Ms. Lewinsky performed oral sex on him.(41) On this day, Ms. Lewinsky was wearing a blue dress that forensic tests have conclusively shown was stained with the President's semen.

David Bauder, Ap Television Writer Updated 12:04 pm, Friday, October 16, 2015

NEW YORK (AP) — CBS has refused to run advertising for "Truth," the film starring Cate Blanchett and Robert Redford that revisits a painful episode in the network's past involving a discredited 2004 news story on former President George W. Bush's military service record.

CBS has denounced the movie, which opens Friday, as a disservice to the public and journalists.

Adobe

Geschke and co-founder Warnock's Interpress language evolved into Adobe's PostScript, which when combined with hardware from Apple computer, formed the first desktop publishing (DTP) system where anyone could set type, compose documents, and print them as they appeared on the screen electronically. PostScript was marketable as it was machine-independent and extremely flexible. With this new approach, they brought their product to the market, allowing business users to greatly improve the quality and efficiency of their document production, and thus began an entire industry.

The American Presidency Project

William J. Clinton

XLII President of the United States: 1993 - 2001

Remarks Announcing the Bosnia-Herzegovina Peace Agreement and an Exchange With Reporters

November 21, 1995

Good morning. About an hour ago I spoke with Secretary Christopher in Dayton, Ohio. He informed me that the Presidents of Bosnia, Croatia, and Serbia have reached a peace agreement to end the war in Bosnia, to end the worst conflict in Europe since World War II.

After nearly 4 years of 250,000 people killed, 2 million refugees, atrocities that have appalled people all over the world, the people of Bosnia finally have a chance to turn from the horror of war to the promise of peace.

The Presidents of Bosnia, Croatia, and Serbia have made a historic and heroic choice. They have heeded the will of their people. Whatever their ethnic group, the overwhelming majority of Bosnia citizens and the citizens of Croatia and Serbia want the same thing. They want to stop the slaughter; they want to put an end to the violence and war; they want to give their children and their grandchildren a chance to lead a normal life. Today, thank God, the voices of those people have been heard.

I want to congratulate America's negotiating team, led by Secretary Christopher and Ambassador Holbrooke, for their extraordinary service. Their determination, along with that of our European and Russian partners, along with NATO's resolve, brought the parties to the negotiating table. Then their single-minded pursuit of peace in Dayton made today's agreement a possibility and eventually a reality.

The people of Bosnia, the American people, indeed people throughout the world, should be very thankful for this event today. The peace plan agreed to would preserve Bosnia as a single state, within its present borders and with international recognition. The state will be made up of two parts, the Bosnian Croat Federation and the Bosnian Serb Republic, with a fair distribution of land between the two. The capital city of Sarajevo will remain united.

There will be an effective central government, including a national parliament, a presidency, and a constitutional court, with responsibility for foreign policy, foreign trade, monetary policy, citizenship, immigration, and other important functions. The presidency and the parliament will be chosen through free democratic elections, held under international supervision. Refugees will be allowed to return to their homes. People will be able to move freely throughout Bosnia. And the human rights of every Bosnian citizen will be monitored by an independent commission and an internationally trained civilian police. Those individuals charged with war crimes will be excluded from political life.

Now that the parties to the war have made a serious commitment to peace, we must help them to make it work. All the parties have asked for a strong international force to supervise the separation of forces and to give them confidence that each side will live up to their agreements. Only NATO can do that job. And the United States as NATO's leader must play an essential role in this mission. Without us, the hard-won peace would be lost, the war would resume, the slaughter of innocents would begin again, and the conflict that already has claimed so many people could spread like poison throughout the entire region.

We are at a decisive moment. The parties have chosen peace. America must choose peace as well. Now that a detailed settlement has been reached, NATO will rapidly complete its planning for the implementation force known as IFOR. The plan soon will be submitted to me for review and for approval. As of now, we expect that about one-third of IFOR's force will be American. The rest will come from our NATO partners and from other nations throughout the world.

At the same time, once the agreement is signed, the international community will initiate a parallel program to provide humanitarian relief, to begin the job of rebuilding, to help the thousands of refugees return to their homes, to monitor free elections, in short, to help the Bosnian people create the conditions of lasting peace.

The NATO military mission will be clear and limited. Our troops will take their orders only from the American general who commands NATO. They will have authority to meet any threat to their safety or any violation of the peace agreement with immediate and decisive force. And there will be a reasonable timetable for their withdrawal.

I am satisfied that the NATO implementation plan is clear, limited, and achievable and that the risks to our troops are minimized. I will promptly consult with Congress when I receive this plan, and if I am fully satisfied with it when I see it in its final form, I will ask Congress to support American participation.

The central fact for us as Americans is this: Our leadership made this peace agreement possible and helped to bring an end to the senseless slaughter of so many innocent people that our fellow citizens had to watch night after night after night for 4 long years on their television screens. Now American leadership, together with our allies, is needed to make this peace real and enduring. Our values, our interests, and our leadership all over the world are at stake.

I ask all Americans in this Thanksgiving week to take some time to say a simple prayer of thanksgiving that this peace has been reached, that our Nation was able to play an important role in stopping the suffering and the slaughter.

May God bless the peace and the United States.

Q. Mr. President, Congress seems deeply skeptical of sending American troops to Bosnia right now. How are you going to turn that around, and how soon would American forces have to go into Bosnia?

The President. Well, first of all, I believe it's important for the Congress to have a chance to review this peace agreement and to receive the assurances from the leaders of Bosnia, Croatia, and Serbia that they intend to do everything in their power to make sure the agreement is implemented in good faith and with peaceful intent and absolutely minimal violence. I think that will be an imperative part of this endeavor.

I will work with the leaders of Congress to establish a schedule for implementing that. I have placed calls to the Speaker, the majority leader of the Senate, and the minority leaders of the Senate and the House shortly before I came out here. I was only able to reach the Speaker. The others were in transit, but I will speak to them all today. And I will work with them to establish a schedule for consultation with Congress that will begin as soon as I approve the final NATO plan.

I have had extensive briefings on this plan. And as I said, I am satisfied that based on what we knew at the time I was briefed, we had a clear, limited, achievable mission that minimized the risks to not only the uniformed forces of the United States but others who would participate as well. When I see the final plan, if I remain of that opinion, I will immediately consult with Congress and we will have an agreed-upon schedule for consultations, which I think will begin immediately in terms of the detail of the peace agreement itself. And that is the responsibility that I have to bear, and I intend to assume it.

Now, we have assured Congress that there will be no complete deployment until they have a chance to be heard on this issue. The only things that will be done in the preliminary period, assuming that things go forward as we anticipate today and you hear what I think you will hear shortly from the three Presidents, is that there will be some preliminary planning done in the Bosnia area, which is absolutely essential and which we have already fully disclosed to the Congress. But beyond that, the Congress will have a period of weeks before the final formal signing ceremony, which would trigger the involvement of NATO's forces. So that's what I expect will happen.

Let me say that I know you will have other questions about the details of this peace agreement, how it was reached, the number of eleventh hours that came and passed. And even last night at midnight, when I had my last conversation with Secretary Christopher, we were not sure whether there would be peace this morning. When I got up and we began to work on this, we were not sure there would be peace. As often happens in a process like this, as I think happened in the Middle East, something stirred among the leaders themselves and they decided that they should not let this moment pass for the benefit of their people.

So I believe we'll be able to answer all the other questions in the days ahead, and the people in Dayton will be able to answer more of your questions when they have their press conference. The main thing is, I ask all Americans to remember what we have seen and heard and read about for the last 4 years and remember what the implications were not only for our consciences but for the prospect that that conflict could spread.

The fact that these leaders have voted to bring an end to this and to give the people of Bosnia a peaceful Christmas and a peaceful future is something for which we should be very, very thankful.

Thank you very much.

NOTE: The President spoke at 11:40 a.m. in the Rose Garden at the White House. In his remarks, he referred to President Alija Izetbegovic of Bosnia-Herzegovina, President Franjo Tudjman of Croatia, and President Slobodan Milosevic of Serbia.

Jet Carrying 293 Crashes, Burns in Iowa; 166 Survive

July 20, 1989 J. MICHAEL KENNEDY and BOB BAKER Times Staff Writers

SIOUX CITY, Iowa — A crippled United Airlines DC-10 crashed a half-mile short of a runway while trying to make an emergency landing Wednesday afternoon, bursting into a cartwheeling fireball that broke into what one eyewitness described as "15,000 pieces" and killing at least 123 of the 293 passengers and crew members on board.

Remarkably, as many as 166 persons survived the violent crash, according to Richard Vohs, a spokesman for Iowa Gov. Terry E. Branstad. The fate of four others was not immediately known.


Tail Engine Explodes

The plane's tail engine exploded before the crash but it was not immediately clear how the explosion contributed to what a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman called "complete hydraulic failure," an occurrence regarded as extremely rare in the wide-bodied DC-10, which has three independent hydraulic systems that operate all the plane's control surfaces on its wings and tail, and landing gear and brakes.

As rescuers worked underneath floodlights to remove bodies from the crash site, original estimates of the death toll--one as high as 190, which would have made the crash the second worst in U.S. history--were reduced.

"We don't have a firm count" of the dead, Vohs acknowledged at a press conference seven hours after the crash. "But right now, the number (of survivors) confirmed is 166."

The survivors of Wednesday's United Flight 232 from Denver to Philadelphia via Chicago included several dozen passengers who managed to walk out of a dark, smoke-filled, upside-down section of the jet after it broke off and came to rest in a tall cornfield off the runway.

"I walked out (through the back of the plane) and found myself in the cornfield," passenger David Landsberger told Cable News Network. "We were all walking around in shock. I just walked through it like it was a dream. I was a little dazed."

"It's the goddamndest thing I ever saw in my life," said Charles Mertz of Castle Rock, Colo., another of those who walked away.

GARTH: Marvellous, isn't she, Captain?

KIRK: Yes, er, incredible.

GARTH: What is your reaction, Mister Spock?

SPOCK: I find it mildly interesting and somewhat nostalgic, if I understand the use of that word.

GARTH: Nostalgic?

SPOCK: Yes. It is somewhat reminiscent of the dances that Vulcan children do in nursery school. Of course, the children are not so well co-ordinated.

(Marta's dance brings her up close and personal with both Garth and Kirk.)

GARTH: She's yours if you wish, Captain.

KIRK: Oh, er, thank you. That's, er, very magnanimous of you.

GARTH: You'll find that I am magnanimous to my friends and merciless to my enemies, and I want you, both of you, to be my friends.

SPOCK: On what, precisely, is our friendship to be based?

GARTH: Upon the firmest of foundations, Mister Spock. Enlightened self interest. You, Captain, are second only to me as the finest military commander in the galaxy.

KIRK: That's very flattering. I am primarily an explorer now, Captain Garth.

GARTH: And so have I been. I have charted more new worlds than any man in history.

KIRK: And tried to destroy Antos Four. Why?

GARTH: Well, I could say because they were actively hostile to the Federation.

KIRK: Yes, you could say, but that would be untrue.

GARTH: Agreed. Actually they were quite harmless, and they made me whole when I was maimed and dying. And in my gratitude, I offered them the galaxy. They rejected me, and I condemned them to death.

SPOCK: How could you, a Starship fleet Captain, believe that a Federation crew would blindly obey your order to destroy the entire Antos race, a people famous for their benevolence and peaceful pursuits?

GARTH: That was my only miscalculation. I had changed. I had risen above this decadent weakness which still has you in its command, by the way, Captain. My crew had not. I couldn't sway them, but my new crew, the men in this room, will obey my orders without question. Gentlemen, you have eyes but you cannot see. Galaxies surround us, limitless vistas. And yet the Federation would have us grub away like some ants on some somewhat larger than usual anthill. But I am not an insect. I am master of the universe, and I must claim my domain.

KIRK: I agree there was a time when war was necessary, and you were our greatest warrior. I studied your victory at Axanar when I was a cadet. In fact it's still required reading at the Academy.

GARTH: As well it should be.

KIRK: Very well. But my first visit to Axanar was as a new fledged cadet on a peace mission.

GARTH: Peace mission! Politicians and weaklings!

KIRK: They were humanitarians and statesmen, and they had a dream. A dream that became a reality and spread throughout the stars, a dream that made Mister Spock and me brothers.

SPOCK: Captain Kirk speaks somewhat figuratively and with undue emotion. However, what he says is logical and I do, in fact, agree with it.

GARTH: Blind! Truly blind! Captain Kirk is your commanding officer and you are his subordinate. That is all. Yet, Mister Spock, you are a worthy commander in your own right, and in my fleet, you will surely have a Starship to command.

SPOCK: Please forgive me, but exactly where is your fleet?

GARTH: Out there waiting for me. They will flock to my cause, and for good reason. Limitless power, limitless wealth, and solar systems ruled by the elite. We, gentlemen, are that elite, and we must take what is rightfully ours from the decadent weaklings that now hold it.

SPOCK: Captain Garth

GARTH: Lord Garth!

KIRK: Thank you. Now what have you done with the medicine?

GARTH: The medicine? You mean the poison. I destroyed it.

KIRK: Destroyed it? It was your only hope.

GARTH: Silence! The chatter of inferior weaklings wearies me, and it's time I took command of the Enterprise. You'll help me, of course.

KIRK: Of course.

GARTH: My crew mutinied. The first use I will make of the Enterprise is to hunt them down and punish them for that.

KIRK: The crew of the Enterprise will also mutiny.

GARTH: But they won't. You see, Captain, there's a helpful technique I've mastered.

(And Garth changes into Kirk.)

MARTA: Good bye, darling. I'll miss you.

(Garth-Kirk and Marta leave)

KIRK: Governor Cory, how do you feel?

CORY: All right. There is no help for any of us if that madman is in command of the Enterprise. He boasts that he's created the most powerful explosive in the universe, and I believe him.

KIRK: How does he manage to change form at will?

CORY: The people of Antos taught him the techniques of cellular metamorphosis to restore the destroyed parts of his body. By himself, he later learned to use the technique to recreate himself into any form he wished. The first time we knew about it was when a guard, seeing what he thought was me in Garth's cell, released him.

KIRK: He was such a genius. What a waste.

Grounds for Impeachment, No. I

From independent counsel Kenneth Starr's report to the House on President Clinton. Some of the language in these documents is sexually explicit.

I. There is substantial and credible information that President Clinton lied under oath as a defendant in Jones v. Clinton regarding his sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky.

(1) He denied that he had a "sexual relationship" with Monica Lewinsky.

(2) He denied that he had a "sexual affair" with Monica Lewinsky.

(3) He denied that he had "sexual relations" with Monica Lewinsky.

(4) He denied that he engaged in or caused contact with the genitalia of "any person" with an intent to arouse or gratify (oral sex performed on him by Ms. Lewinsky).

(5) He denied that he made contact with Monica Lewinsky's breasts or genitalia with an intent to arouse or gratify.


(ix) Friday, February 28, 1997

Ms. Lewinsky testified that her next sexual encounter with the President occurred on Friday, February 28, 1997, in the early evening.(40) The President initiated this encounter by having his secretary Betty Currie call Ms. Lewinsky to invite her to the White House for a radio address. After the address, Ms. Lewinsky and the President kissed by the bathroom. The President unbuttoned her dress and fondled her breasts, first with her bra on and then directly. He touched her genitalia through her clothes, but not directly, on this occasion. Ms. Lewinsky performed oral sex on him.(41) On this day, Ms. Lewinsky was wearing a blue dress that forensic tests have conclusively shown was stained with the President's semen.

Central Intelligence Agency

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is a civilian foreign intelligence service of the United States federal government, tasked with gathering, processing and analyzing national security information from around the world, primarily through the use of human intelligence (HUMINT). As one of the principal members of the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC), the CIA reports to the Director of National Intelligence and is primarily focused on providing intelligence for the President and Cabinet.

Unlike the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), which is a domestic security service, CIA has no law enforcement function and is mainly focused on overseas intelligence gathering, with only limited domestic collection. Though it is not the only U.S. government agency specializing in HUMINT, CIA serves as the national manager for coordination and deconfliction of HUMINT activities across the entire intelligence community.

Clinton Quizzed About Tie He Wore When Lewinsky Testified

By John King/CNN

Wednesday, August 19, 1998

EDGARTOWN, Mass.(Aug. 19) -- During his grand jury testimony Monday prosecutors questioned President Bill Clinton about the necktie he wore on the day Monica Lewinsky testified before the federal grand jury.

Lewinsky claims she gave the president the tie he wore Aug. 6, the day she appeared, fully immunized, before Independent Counsel Ken Starr's grand jury.

Prosecutors asked Clinton Monday if he was trying to send a signal to the former White House intern by wearing the gold necktie at a Rose Garden event on handgun control.

During the questioning prosecutors reached into a pouch and pulled out a photograph of the tie the president was wearing the morning of Lewinsky's testimony.

Two sources, loyal to the White House, who were briefed on the president's testimony said they were told, the president leaned back in his chair and smiled and then expressed bewilderment at the question.

According to the sources, the president said it was possible Lewinsky had given him the tie, he was not certain of that, and he was certainly not trying to send her a signal.

"It was a rare light hearted moment in a very tough day for the president ... I don't think it is anything that is being taken seriously around here," said one of the sources.

The questions about the tie came up during a portion of the testimony regarding possible obstruction of justice.

Lewinsky told prosecutors she gave the president a half dozen or so ties and sent notes asking the him to wear them as a demonstration that he was thinking of her.

The stimulants, in general, have the effect of increasing wakefulness and alertness at the expense of creating tremulousness, feelings of anxiety and overactivity. Caffein, benzedrine, and dexedrine fall into this category. There are a number of derivatives of benzedrine which have essentially the same action. "Aktedron," a synthetic benzedrine derivative, has been used in Czechoslovakia and Southeast Europe. Coffee and Benzedrine derivatives are sometimes administered to tired or sleepy prisoners in order to wake them up enough so that the interrogation can be carried on. They have been used in this manner in Eastern Europe, in Russia, and in China. In and of themselves they have no important effect in producing confessions. Used in combination with a system of psychological and physiological pressures they will in many cases accelerate and exacerbate the profound fatigue, confusion, loss of critical judgment, and breakdown of resistance which is a consequence of the full course of control techniques.

And then that reminded me of something I read about Bush filling the role of a Soviet bomber during a training exercise with his fighter squadron. Doesn't make sense.

Anyway, I was thinking about how we had our names on our uniforms. We were close enough to them that they could probably read our names with telephoto lenses. I wonder if they would use that information to try to recruit spies, similar to the Walker spy ring that was going on back then.

John Walker's Son Says He Became Spy Because of Close Parental Ties

April 08, 1987 From Times Wire Services

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — The son of convicted spy John A. Walker Jr. said Tuesday that the main reason he became a spy was his close relationship with his father.

"He was a sailor. I was a sailor. He was a private investigator and so was I," said Michael Lance Walker, 24.

"And the bottom line was I turned out to be a spy just like him," Walker said in an interview on the Christian Broadcasting Network's "700 Club." Walker was interviewed in the Federal Correctional Institution in Petersburg, where he is serving a 25-year term.

Serving on Carrier

Walker was a seaman aboard the aircraft carrier Nimitz when his father was arrested for espionage on May 19, 1985. The younger Walker was arrested a few days later and charged with supplying classified documents from the ship to his father for delivery to the Soviet Union.

Both Walkers pleaded guilty, and the elder Walker is serving a life term at another federal prison. Arthur J. Walker, John Walker's brother, and Jerry A. Whitworth, John Walker's Navy friend, also were convicted of espionage and given lengthy prison terms.

Michael Walker said his father reassured him about spying and said the Soviet Union already knew some of the secrets they were selling.

THE DAILY BEAST


ARTICLE 05.02.10 4:02 PM ET

Behind Laura Bush's Car Crash

The former first lady's memoir is hitting bookstores. Ann Louise Bardach talked to her old neighbors about 17-year-old Laura’s grief-stricken seclusion and the breach with the family who lost a son.

Throughout the eight years of her husband’s presidency, the subject of Laura Bush’s role in a deadly car crash when she was a 17-year-old high school senior was considered off limits to the press. With an assist from friendly Texas officials, George W. Bush’s staff prayed the details of her deadly crash would never emerge. For many years, the Midland city attorney and police department blocked the release of the police report of the accident, until lawyers for the tabloid The Globe successfully appealed to the state's attorney general. At the same time, the Bush family cautioned friends and former neighbors to be circumspect in their comments. During the 2000 election run-up, when I reached Billie Ruppe, who lived across from Laura’s family, the Welches, on Humble Ave. in Midland for 25 years, she said quickly, “I’m not going to give you any information till I talk to Laura. I would need to get permission from her.”

"She was a nice girl, she was always very friendly to me as a younger boy on the block." But he also never forgot her wild driving—what he described as her "two-wheeling."

But in her new memoir, Spoken From the Heart, Laura Bush finally discusses the matter (though she acknowledged its impact on her in Ann Gerhart’s biography, The Perfect Wife). “In those awful seconds, the car door must have been flung open by the impact and my body rose in the air until gravity took over and I was pulled, hard and fast, back to earth,” she writes in her new book. The whole time, “I was praying that the person in the other car was alive. In my mind, I was calling ‘Please, God. Please, God. Please, God,’ over and over and over again.”

I interviewed several neighbors and friends of the former Laura Welch between 2000 and 2004 and all described the accident as shattering for young Laura, the family of the victim—indeed, the entire town of Midland. What emerges from the neighborhood is a story brimming with the pathos of a Dreiser novel—one that paints a very different portrait of Laura Welch Bush than the one created by White House strategists.

When asked in 1977 by her husband's grandmother, Dorothy Bush, "What do you do?" Laura answered tartly, "I read and I smoke." And the former First Lady reportedly still enjoys smoking (Winstons) and drinking (margaritas)—though no one has suggested she has a problem. Still, her smoking and margaritas were airbrushed out of the official version of her First Ladyhood—as were her teen years as a vivacious only child from a loving but hard-partying family whose life was irrevocably altered by a carefree, careless moment.

Driving her father’s brand new Chevy Impala on November 6, 1963, Laura Welch ran a stop sign on Farm Road 868 at 8:08 p.m. at 50 m.p.h., plowing into a Corvair sedan driven by Michael Dutton Douglas, the high school’s track and football star, and according to some, a former beau of hers. The impact of the collision hurled Douglas’ car some 50 feet off the road, instantly killing him. Laura and her passenger, schoolmate Judy Dykes, were both treated at the local hospital for their own bruises. It was there she learned that Douglas had died of a broken neck.

Mars mission: Curiosity appears to have landed safely

August 05, 2012 By Scott Gold

Curiosity, the largest and most advanced spacecraft ever sent to another planet, appears to have landed on Mars to begin its pioneering, two-year hunt for the building blocks of life — signs that Earth’s creatures may not be alone in the universe.

The craft was scheduled to land at 10:31 p.m. Pacific time in an ancient geological feature known as Gale Crater.

The landing site was 154 million miles from home, enough distance that the spacecraft's elaborate landing sequence had to be automated. The Earth also "set" below the Mars horizon shortly before landing, making even delayed direct communication with mission control impossible — and confirmation of Curiosity’s fate tricky.

PHOTOS: Preparing for Martian landing

Engineers were waiting for a passing satellite, Odyssey, to relay a series of three messages from Curiosity. One would indicate the robot’s rough position and how hard it had landed; another would indicate that it was no longer moving; and a third would indicate that the spacecraft was emitting a continuous stream of communication.

If Curiosity’s success is confirmed, it would be a moment of triumph for NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Cañada Flintridge, which is managing the $2.5-billion mission.

Shortly after 10:31 p.m., engineers inside mission control appeared to indicate that they were receiving at least some of those messages, indicating that Curiosity had survived its elaborate landing sequence.

INTERACTIVE: Curiosity, from liftoff to landing

Curiosity is expected to revolutionize the understanding of Mars, gathering evidence that Mars is or was capable of fostering life, probably in microbial form.

The spacecraft is also expected to pave the way for important leaps in deep-space exploration, including bringing Martian rock or soil back to Earth for detailed analysis and, eventually, human exploration.

President Obama has established a goal of sending astronauts to Mars in the 2030's, and John Grunsfeld, NASA’s associate administrator, said on Sunday that humans might one day live there too.

"Curiosity has captured the imagination of the world," Grunsfeld said before the landing. "We’re about to do something that I think is just huge for humankind."

NASA hopes Curiosity landing site is a Grand Canyon of Mars

Gale Crater and its remarkable mountain weren't the first choice, but scientists now are excited about the geologic record they could reveal.

August 05, 2012 By Scott Gold, Los Angeles Times

In the spring of 1869, a geology professor who had lost an arm to a musket ball at the Battle of Shiloh led a tortuous journey down a canyon that had been etched into stone, a mile deep, by the unremitting force of the Colorado River.

There, in what would become known as the Grand Canyon, John Wesley Powell found a diary of the Earth's adolescence — layer upon layer of varied, exposed rock spanning 2 billion years. If there were a Bible of geology, Powell wrote, this would be the Book of Revelation.

On Sunday, 143 years later, scientists will attempt to retrace that journey — on Mars.

PHOTOS: History of Mars exploration

The NASA robot dubbed Curiosity is scheduled to land Sunday night at the foot of a mountain that scientists believe contains a similar record of Mars' past. In the next two years, Curiosity is to painstakingly climb the mountain's foothills — probing layers of exposed rock and then sending home what scientists hope will be the most compelling evidence yet that we are not alone in the universe.

"Are we really a 1-in-a-gazillion accident?" asked Matthew P. Golombek, a senior research scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Cañada Flintridge. "That's almost a theological question. And we need to run it down."

Curiosity, the largest and most advanced machine ever sent to another planet, is expected to land in a feature known as Gale Crater. About the size of Riverside County, the crater was formed more than 3 billion years ago when a meteor slammed into Mars just south of its equator.

PHOTOS: Preparing for Martian landing

That was pretty typical. Mars has been pummeled by meteors over the years, including more than 40,000 that created impact craters at least three miles wide. What was unusual, and what raised the eyebrows of scientists selecting a landing site, was Mt. Sharp, a massive mountain at the center of Gale Crater.

Named in honor of the late Robert Phillip Sharp, a groundbreaking Caltech geologist who had served as a mentor to some of the JPL scientists who are managing the mission for NASA, Mt. Sharp rises three miles from the floor of the crater.

Most craters have a mound of some sort in the middle, caused by the same physical principles captured in ultra-slow-motion photographs, when a droplet of milk pops back up after a larger drop falls through the surface.

GRAPHIC: Curiosity, from liftoff to landing

But this was no mound. Inside Gale Crater was a full-fledged mountain, taller than any in the Lower 48 states, so high that its peak rose above some portions of the rim of the surrounding crater. It was "too big for normal," said Ashwin R. Vasavada, a deputy project scientist at JPL who is helping oversee the Mars mission.

Despite the intrigue, in the years leading up to the Mars mission, Gale Crater was not the first choice of the scientific community. Its selection required a little help from its friends — namely, the 11th-hour delivery of a surprising batch of data from a satellite passing overhead.

The choice of a landing site was arguably the second-most important decision of the mission, after the decision to send the robot to Mars in the first place. "What you study with a landed mission sets the tone for where our science on Mars goes from here," said Golombek, who oversaw the selection of Curiosity's landing site. "It's critical."

Five years ago, JPL began soliciting the input of scores of Mars-watchers, who made impassioned arguments at a series of workshops for what might be learned at their favored landing site.

The idea was to start with a list of potential sites, and then at the workshops cull them to a few that were relatively safe and offered the most scientific bang for the mission's $2.5-billion buck. But there was so much input and enthusiasm that the list of candidate sites grew after the workshops began. Fifteen more were added, bringing the total to 60.

Eventually, the list had to shrink. Engineers forced the elimination of numerous sites when they decided that Curiosity would need to land closer to the equator than they initially hoped. Mars, despite its immense scientific allure, presents a notoriously difficult thermal environment for space exploration, with temperature swings of more than 100 degrees routine in a single day. Temperatures are more consistent at Mars' equator than at its poles — and some of the proposed sites had to be eliminated because they were too far from the equator.

As the list began to get reduced, Gale Crater was still hanging around. But, in the eyes of many scientists, it was not the front-runner. That honor would have probably gone to another crater, a site known as Eberswalde.

There, scientists had discovered the hardened, dry remnants of what appeared to be an ancient delta — a "fan" where a powerful river splashed into a standing body of water, similar to the muddy wash where the Mississippi empties into the Gulf of Mexico near New Orleans.

NASA hopes Curiosity landing site is a Grand Canyon of Mars

Gale Crater and its remarkable mountain weren't the first choice, but scientists now are excited about the geologic record they could reveal.

August 05, 2012 By Scott Gold, Los Angeles Times

"There was a river, and there was a lake. That's pretty awesome," Vasavada said.

It was firm proof, scientists believed, that water once flowed on Mars — a critical notion, because every environment that contains water, at least on Earth, sustains microbial life.

But scientists already knew that water once existed on the surface of Mars. Older missions had offered plenty of suggestions, and the twin rovers NASA sent to Mars in 2003, Spirit and Opportunity, had proved it in spectacular and definitive fashion.

The new rover's mission was more complex: a search for all of the basic ingredients of life, particularly carbon-carrying organic molecules.

What's more, there were percolating questions about what the delta might prove. There was a risk that the delta was not a record of Mars' history, but a "one-trick pony," Vasavada said, an aberration forged in a relatively short period of time, at least by geologic standards.

As discussions continued, NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which launched in 2005, was quietly circling the planet. The MRO, as it is known in space science parlance, was designed to pave the way for landed missions on Mars by mapping the planet's surface and conducting a higher-fidelity investigation of Mars' weather and environment than had ever been accomplished.

Starting a couple of years ago, the MRO began sending home a data dump about the landing site finalists. The data made it clear that all of the finalists contained vast scientific possibilities, but none more than Gale Crater and its mountain.

The MRO was equipped with lasers that could peer into the planet's surface and detect the presence of minerals.

The mountain, it turned out, was once not a mountain at all. It was part of a giant, layered plateau, which was then eroded — perhaps by wind, perhaps by water — into a cone.

On its slopes, the MRO found distinct layers of rock, like those John Wesley Powell found in the Grand Canyon.

The lowest tier of the mountain was built of clay, a remnant of what appear to have been Mars' water years, topped with a layer of mineral-rich sulfates created when the water disappeared, topped with layers of sand and dust.

Here could be a record of Mars' environmental history — of two planetary-scale geologic phenomena, the first when water appears to have covered Mars with sediment, the second when Mars dried up and the sediment was stripped away. Last summer, NASA made it official: Curiosity would land in Gale Crater and, from there, would head for the mountain.

"Gale was a racehorse that was in the back of the pack and then jumped ahead," Vasavada said. "You want to look at piles of stuff — that's where history is recorded. The rocks at the bottom are old. The rocks above are younger. And some amount of time is recorded for us in between. We think Gale has many stories to tell. We're going to ask it what happened."

NASA satellite photo shows Mars rover, parachute out, on descent

August 06, 2012 By Jon Bardin This post has been corrected. See note at the bottom for details.

About six minutes in to the rover’s seven minutes of terror -- the time it took for Curiosity to reach the surface of Mars from the edge of its atmosphere -- the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter took a pass over the landing site, the Gale crater.

When it did, it took a stunning photo. In it, you can clearly see Curiosity, its parachute deployed, floating toward the surface of the planet.

The Odyssey satellite got all the credit Sunday night because it was responsible for relaying signals back to Earth about whether the descent and landing were working correctly. But, JPL scientist Sarah Milkovich said Monday morning, Odyssey “wasn’t the only orbiter listening.” The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, or MRO, was also circling Mars.

PHOTOS: Mars rover mission

“And with the MRO we weren’t just listening, we were watching,” Milkovich said. The MRO's high-resolution camera, called HiRISE, also played a key role in helping NASA scientists choose the Gale crater as the landing site.

The HiRISE camera is capable of taking images of 30 centimeters per pixel. The new image was reported by Milkovich to be about 33 centimeters per pixel.

At the time of the picture, the MRO was only about 210 miles away from Curiosity -- a tiny distance when you consider that Curiosity had traveled about 350 million miles. It was not a certainty that the image could be taken: Milkovich said they had estimated their chances of capturing it at about 60%.

“HiRISE has taken over 120 pictures of Gale as part of the landing site selection process. But I think this is the coolest one,” Milkovich said with a big smile.

[For the Record, 1:52 p.m., August 6: An earlier version of this post said that Curiosity had traveled about 154 million miles. Though Earth and Mars are 154 million miles apart now, Curiosity had traveled about 350 million miles.]

JPL workers exhale after Curiosity rover lands safely on Mars

August 06, 2012 By Amina Khan

The mood was exuberant at Jet Propulsion Laboratory Sunday night after scientists and engineers watched their one-ton rover execute a complex series of maneuvers and land as gracefully as an Olympic gymnast.

"So that rocked. Seriously! Woo!" said Richard Cook, deputy project manager for the Mars Science Laboratory, as the punched upward with both fists, a sign of victory.

Cook reminisced about how far they had come since the 1997 Pathfinder mission, which sent the first rover, Sojourner, to skitter around the Martian surface. Sojourner was a relatively simple, skateboard-sized affair, whereas the latest rover — known as Curiosity — is a laser-zapping, video-shooting chemical laboratory on wheels.

PHOTOS: JPL's faces of joy

"Pathfinder was great, but we were young and stupid, frankly," Cook said, to much laughter.

The elation was mixed with relief.

“I’m so glad we nailed that sucker!” mission systems engineer Randii Wessen said.

Many of the scientists and engineers at Jet Propulsion Laboratory headquarters turned to humor as a release for the day’s tension.

Photos: History of Mars exploration

"I've never been so happy to be out of a job in my life," said Chris Scolese, director of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. Scolese had been tasked with analyzing a mission failure — a moot point after Curiosity touched down on the Martian surface without a hitch.

Even those moments of quiet didn’t stay so for long. When Adam Steltzner, lead for the entry-descent-landing phase of the mission, got misty-eyed during a briefing, the room grew hushed as the engineer composed himself.

As Steltzner tried to speak, a muffled “Woooo” from a neighboring room broke the solemn silence. Steltzner – and his audience – burst out laughing.

HISTORY


DECEMBER 01, 1990 : CHUNNEL MAKES BREAKTHROUGH

Shortly after 11 a.m. on December 1, 1990, 132 feet below the English Channel, workers drill an opening the size of a car through a wall of rock. This was no ordinary hole–it connected the two ends of an underwater tunnel linking Great Britain with the European mainland for the first time in more than 8,000 years.

The Channel Tunnel, or “Chunnel,” was not a new idea. It had been suggested to Napoleon Bonaparte, in fact, as early as 1802. It wasn’t until the late 20th century, though, that the necessary technology was developed. In 1986, Britain and France signed a treaty authorizing the construction of a tunnel running between Folkestone, England, and Calais, France.

Over the next four years, nearly 13,000 workers dug 95 miles of tunnels at an average depth of 150 feet (45 meters) below sea level. Eight million cubic meters of soil were removed, at a rate of some 2,400 tons per hour. The completed Chunnel would have three interconnected tubes, including one rail track in each direction and one service tunnel. The price? A whopping $15 billion.

After workers drilled that final hole on December 1, 1990, they exchanged French and British flags and toasted each other with champagne. Final construction took four more years, and the Channel Tunnel finally opened for passenger service on May 6, 1994, with Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II and France’s President Francois Mitterrand on hand in Calais for the inaugural run. A company called Eurotunnel won the 55-year concession to operate the Chunnel, which is the crucial stretch of the Eurostar high-speed rail link between London and Paris. The regular shuttle train through the tunnel runs 31 miles in total–23 of those underwater–and takes 20 minutes, with an additional 15-minute loop to turn the train around. The Chunnel is the second-longest rail tunnel in the world, after the Seikan Tunnel in Japan.

HISTORY


JUNE 13, 1966 : THE MIRANDA RIGHTS ARE ESTABLISHED

On this day in 1966, the Supreme Court hands down its decision in Miranda v. Arizona, establishing the principle that all criminal suspects must be advised of their rights before interrogation. Now considered standard police procedure, “You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can, and will, be used against you in court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, one will be appointed to you,” has been heard so many times in television and film dramas that it has become almost cliche.

The roots of the Miranda decision go back to March 2, 1963, when an 18-year-old Phoenix woman told police that she had been abducted, driven to the desert and raped. Detectives questioning her story gave her a polygraph test, but the results were inconclusive. However, tracking the license plate number of a car that resembled that of her attacker’s brought police to Ernesto Miranda, who had a prior record as a peeping tom. Although the victim did not identify Miranda in a line-up, he was brought into police custody and interrogated. What happened next is disputed, but officers left the interrogation with a confession that Miranda later recanted, unaware that he didn’t have to say anything at all.

The confession was extremely brief and differed in certain respects from the victim’s account of the crime. However, Miranda’s appointed defense attorney (who was paid a grand total of $100) didn’t call any witnesses at the ensuing trial, and Miranda was convicted. While Miranda was in Arizona state prison, the American Civil Liberties Union took up his appeal, claiming that the confession was false and coerced.

The Supreme Court overturned his conviction, but Miranda was retried and convicted in October 1966 anyway, despite the relative lack of evidence against him. Remaining in prison until 1972, Ernesto Miranda was later stabbed to death in the men’s room of a bar after a poker game in January 1976.

As a result of the case against Miranda, each and every person must now be informed of his or her rights when arrested.

The Justice Department's report on background checks is further proof that the Brady law is working. Since its passage, law enforcement officials have stopped hundreds of thousands of felons, fugitives, and stalkers from buying handguns every year. By keeping guns out of the hands of criminals—and putting more police in our communities—we have helped cut the crime rate to its lowest point in a generation. We must now extend the Brady law's provisions to violent juveniles and bar them from owning guns for life. I call on Congress once again to pass this needed, commonsense legislation.

SHORE
It's guiding itself. Can you believe it?

[The computer describes a lot of illegible data as a device tracks across a star chart.]

SHORE
The thing has locked itself onto a point somewhere in the Kaliam galaxy.

JENNY
It has mass. It-it could be a moon or a large asteroid.

DANIEL
Where are we on that map?

CATHERINE
(points)
Look down.

[Daniel moves to the far end of the star chart where a red square box is. Then follows to where the trajectory guide is now sitting.]

CATHERINE
That's right, Jackson. It's on the other side of the...known universe.

Time dilation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the theory of relativity, time dilation is a difference of elapsed time between two events as measured by observers either moving relative to each other or differently situated from a gravitational mass or masses.

A clock at rest with respect to one observer may be measured to tick at a different rate when compared to a second observer's clock. This effect arises neither from technical aspects of the clocks nor from the propagation time of signals, but from the nature of spacetime.


Overview


Relative velocity time dilation

When two observers are in relative uniform motion and uninfluenced by any gravitational mass, the point of view of each will be that the other's (moving) clock is ticking at a slower rate than the local clock. The faster the relative velocity, the greater the magnitude of time dilation. This case is sometimes called special relativistic time dilation.

For instance, two rocket ships (A and B) speeding past one another in space would experience time dilation. If they somehow had a clear view into each other's ships, each crew would see the others' clocks and movement as going more slowly. That is, inside the frame of reference of Ship A, everything is moving normally, but everything over on Ship B appears to be moving more slowly (and vice versa).

From a local perspective, time registered by clocks that are at rest with respect to the local frame of reference (and far from any gravitational mass) always appears to pass at the same rate. In other words, if a new ship, Ship C, travels alongside Ship A, it is "at rest" relative to Ship A. From the point of view of Ship A, new Ship C's time would appear normal too.

A question arises: If Ship A and Ship B both think each other's time is moving slower, who will have aged more if they decided to meet up? With a more sophisticated understanding of relative velocity time dilation, this seeming twin paradox turns out not to be a paradox at all (the resolution of the paradox involves a jump in time, as a result of the accelerated observer turning around). Similarly, understanding the twin paradox would help explain why astronauts on the ISS age slower (e.g. 0.007 seconds behind for every six months) even though they are experiencing relative velocity time dilation.

CATHERINE
Glad you decided to join us.

DANIEL
This is..uh...where did you find this?

CATHERINE
(chuckling, pleased)
Giza plateau, 1928.

DANIEL
I've never seen anything like this.

[Catherine laughs.]

CATHERINE
Of course you haven't. No one has.

[Daniel moves closer and touches the stone.]

MYERS
Now there's two lines of hieroglyphs. The inner track has the classic figures, but the outer track is like the cartouche in the center. It's got writing unlike what we've ever found before.

[Daniel steps back to see better.]

DANIEL
Those aren't hieroglyphics. Might be some form of hieratic or maybe cuneiform.

SHORE
Yeah.

[Daniel moves to a blackboard, looking at where the hieroglyphs have already been partly translated into English.]

DANIEL
Well, the translation of the inner track is wrong. Must've used Budge. I don't know why they keep reprinting his books.

Nick Halloway: [narrating] I was a fugitive, afraid of getting caught. I kept imagining Jenkins leaping out at me from every dark corner. As a child, I would dream about being invisible. I thought it would be so easy. I could do what I want, go where I want and take what I want. But that's the catch. No matter how hungry I was, I couldn't give myself away.

Ghosts of Mars (2001)


Uno was your brother?
Yeah.
Look at him.
Whatever is inside of him
has waited a long time to get out.
I didn't understand their design,
how they move.
But it's got to be the wind.
Yeah.
Yeah, the wind takes them.
And then once their hosts die...
they drift along the railroad tracks
from town to town, human to human.
What a perfect creation.
Vengeance on anything or anyone that
tries to lay claim to their planet.
What did you see
at Drucker's Ridge?
I was at the mine when
they called a work stoppage.
It was a Section 740,
a "scientifically significant find."
A 740 applies to any number
of things found on Mars.
A biological organism, an indication
of water, things like that.
After we dynamited the mountain,
we discovered an entrance.
It was a tunnel
carved into the rock.
it had been hidden underneath
the outer walls for centuries...
and someone other than man
had carved it.
Jesus!
- What the hell was that?
- I don't know.
Let's get the hell
out of here!
It was me.
I opened Pandora's box.
I let them out.
