Flashpoint in The Falklands: Argentine Anger as British Oil Rig Moves in Today and MoD Beefs up Forces 'Hostilities between the UK and Argentina will reach boiling point today with the arrival of a British oil rig off the Falkland Islands. Buenos Aires has threatened to take steps to prevent what it believes is 'illegal' drilling - including a blockade of ships. But oil exploration firm Desire Petroleum confirmed that the huge drilling platform Ocean Guardian was due to enter the archipelago's waters in defiance of the Argentine government's warnings.' School Used Student Laptop Webcams to Spy on Them at School and Home 'According to the filings in Blake J Robbins v Lower Merion School District (PA) et al, the laptops issued to high-school students in the well-heeled Philly suburb have webcams that can be covertly activated by the schools' administrators, who have used this facility to spy on students and even their families. The issue came to light when the Robbins's child was disciplined for "improper behavior in his home" and the Vice Principal used a photo taken by the webcam as evidence. The suit is a class action, brought on behalf of all students issued with these machines. If true, these allegations are about as creepy as they come. I don't know about you, but I often have the laptop in the room while I'm getting dressed, having private discussions with my family, and so on. The idea that a school district would not only spy on its students' clickstreams and emails (bad enough), but also use these machines as AV bugs is purely horrifying.' British Death Camps In Germany After WWII 'Prisoners complained thumbscrews and "shin screws" were employed at the prison and Dr Jordan's report highlighted the small, round scars that he had seen on the legs of two men, "which were said to be the result of the use of some instrument to facilitate questioning". One of these men was Hans Habermann, a 43-year-old disabled German Jew who had survived three years in Buchenwald concentration camp. All of these men had been held at Bad Nenndorf, a small, once-elegant spa resort near Hanover. Here, an organisation called the Combined Services Detailed Interrogation Centre (CSDIC) ran a secret prison following the British occupation of north-west Germany in 1945. CSDIC, a division of the War Office, operated interrogation centres around the world, including one known as the London Cage, located in one of London's most exclusive neighbourhoods. Official documents discovered last month at the National Archives at Kew, south-west London, show that the London Cage was a secret torture centre where German prisoners who had been concealed from the Red Cross were beaten, deprived of sleep, and threatened with execution or with unnecessary surgery.' Vortex 'Many people have experienced an event that involves an apparition or creature entering or leaving a vortex/portal. Consider these two accounts: " I woke up from a dream one night back in April ( year deleted ) and I saw a tall, shadowy being standing near my bed. As I screamed the being moved without walking toward the wall as though it were in a vortex. As the being moved away from me it became smaller in size as it neared the eye of the vortex. At this point, the being suddenly disappeared. Then I fell back to sleep, but I remembered the event the next morning and I know that I was fully conscience when this happened." Or consider this eyewitness account: "I was on my morning walk and as I was entering a grassy area at the park near my home when I happened to look up at the sky just above the tree line to the west. I saw a sliver disk-like craft hovering there, and I observed it for about 20 seconds before this craft seemed to simply vanish. It did not move in any direction. It was there then it was just gone ...." These two accounts by eyewitnesses demonstrates that something strange is going on that is perplexing and enshrouded in mystery. Objects or beings that simply vanish into thin air is presently beyond the explanation of conventional science...... But this is indeed what seems to be going on in the realm of UFOs and otherworldly beings.'
