Cornholing as Contraception.
by mattd 11 Jan '02

11 Jan '02

GM corn set to stop man spreading his seed Special report: GM crops debate Robin McKie, science editor Sunday September 9, 2001 The Observer Scientists have created the ultimate GM crop: contraceptive corn. Waiving fields of maize may one day save the world from overpopulation. The pregnancy prevention plants are the handiwork of the San Diego biotechnology company Epicyte, where researchers have discovered a rare class of human antibodies that attack sperm. By isolating the genes that regulate the manufacture of these antibodies, and by putting them in corn plants, the company has created tiny horticultural factories that make contraceptives. 'We have a hothouse filled with corn plants that make anti-sperm antibodies,' said Epicyte president Mitch Hein. 'We have also created corn plants that make antibodies against the herpes virus, so we should be able to make a plant-based jelly that not only prevents pregnancy but also blocks the spread of sexual disease.' Contraceptive corn is based on research on the rare condition, immune infertility, in which a woman makes antibodies that attack sperm. 'Essentially, the antibodies are attracted to surface receptors on the sperm,' said Hein. 'They latch on and make each sperm so heavy it cannot move forward. It just shakes about as if it was doing the lambada.' Normally, biologists use bacteria to grow human proteins. However, Epicyte decided to use corn because plants have cellular structures that are much more like those of humans, making them easier to manipulate. The company, which says it will not grow the maize near other crops, says it plans to launch clinical trials of the corn in a few months.END (See also Germaine Greers Sex and Destiny;review here... http://www.nytimes.com/books/99/05/09/specials/greer.html

POON on PUNKS
by mattd 11 Jan '02

11 Jan '02

After Genoa,where the black bloc was probably infiltrated by 600 nazi's,and 9-11 that unleashed the jingo monster,many anarchists are casting around for new ways to take down the state.Greenpeace just copped a humungous fine and might also be seaking alternative protest strategies.While all that's going on the Homeland military industrial godzilla is frightening many people and even some lawyers into the crypto-anarchist direction.If you need PGP just to e-mail your kids safely... All these swirling currents have created a window of opportunity or "sweet spot" for the mass promotion of Cypherpunk approved crypto-anarchy.In the book and series "A force more powerful," the raw power of mass civil disobedience is demonstrated again and again.With the Internet,the fact that you may be a minority in your nation state becomes much less important,security and solidarity become more important,even revolutionary against a divided foe.While the technical advances plateau for a nano-second why don't we all link,agitate,connect,protest,boycott,sabotage,expand,contract,do all we can short of self immolate to get crypto-anarchy out,in,up down and all around.You know it makes sense. When crypto-anarchy is outlawed only V? PS+++ PE Y+ PGP- t* 5+++ X R* tv b+ DI+ D++ G++>+++ e>++ h-- r++ y+

Matt - Fighting Terrorism, Saving Tyrants
by Jim Bovard 11 Jan '02

11 Jan '02

Matt: Thought you might enjoy this bouquet for the war on terrorism. take it easy, Jim USA Today January 10, 2002 Don't bed down with tyrants to fight terrorism By James Bovard President Bush recently declared: "So long as anybody's terrorizing established governments, there needs to be a war." Bush rightfully sought international support for the campaign to put the al_Qaeda terrorist network out of business. But the war on terrorism threatens to become a license for tyranny. The United Nations is concerned that an expansive call for governments to crack down on terrorism - a crime that is not clearly defined - is spurring a surge of oppression around the world. Los Angeles Times writer William Orme detailed some of the ways governments are exploiting the new war to repress their citizens: The Cuban government, as part of its war on terrorism, added a new law allowing the death penalty for anyone who uses the Internet to incite political violence. Zimbabwe's war on terrorism includes a proposal to criminalize any critical comment about President_dictator Robert Mugabe. Syria bragged to the U.N. that financial support for terrorists was effectively curtailed by the absence of any private banking system or independent charities, Orme reported. In other words, a government that totally destroys freedom expects to be applauded as an anti_terrorist superstar. Bacre Waly Ndiaye, a chief U.N. human_rights officer, recently complained: "In some countries, non_violent activities have been considered as terrorism, and excessive measures have been taken to suppress or restrict individual rights, including the presumption of innocence, the right to a fair trial, freedom from torture, privacy rights, freedom of expression and assembly, and the right to seek asylum." Many of these complaints, in fact, apply to the actions of the Bush administration. A new law decimates individual privacy by giving the FBI the de facto right to vacuum up practically anyone's e_mail. Permanent resident aliens who publicly criticize the U.S. government's war on terrorism can be banned from re_entering the United States. Some have floated the suggestion that permitting the torture of suspects could help avert future terrorist attacks. And Bush's executive order for military tribunals threatens to bring unsavory aspects of Third World "justice" to American shores. A myopic focus on private_sector criminals risks giving a green light to more dangerous government abuses. A core fallacy of the war on terrorism - as opposed to attacking and destroying al_Qaeda - is that terrorism is worse than anything else imaginable. Unfortunately, governments have committed far worse abuses than al_Qaeda or any other terrorist cabal. Official murderers Mass murder was the most memorable achievement of some 20th_century governments. The Black Book of Communism, a 1997 scholarly French compendium, detailed how 85 million to 100 million people came to die at the hands of communist regimes in the Soviet Union, China, Cambodia and elsewhere. In Death by Government, R.J. Rummel declared that some 170 million people were killed in one of "the myriad ways governments have inflicted death on unarmed, helpless citizens and foreigners." By raising terrorist attacks to the pinnacle of political evil, the war on terrorism implicitly sanctifies whatever tactic governments use in the name of repressing terrorism. But, in the long run, people have far more to fear from governments than from terrorists. Bush's labeling of attacks on any "established government" as a justification of counterterrorism ignores the fact that some governments are little more than criminal conspiracies against their victims. The United States was created as a result of popular uprisings and attacks on an established government that was far less oppressive than many current regimes in Africa and Asia. The Bush administration must find a way to fight terrorism without sanctifying tyranny. The word "terrorism" must not become an incantation that miraculously razes all existing limits on government power. The fact that governments such as Syria and Zimbabwe can justify their oppression by invoking the war against terrorism is an embarrassment to anyone who both opposes terrorism and favors human rights. James Bovard is the author of Lost Rights (St. Martin's Press, 1994) and Freedom in Chains (St. Martin's, 1999). http://www.usatoday.com/news/comment/2002/01/10/ncguest2.htm ************************************************************************** Subscribe to Freematt's Alerts: Pro-Individual Rights Issues Send a blank message to: freematt(a)coil.com with the words subscribe FA on the subject line.
