Does anyone have a PDF of the most recent Ron Paul cookbook? I want to rubberneck at it with my own eyes instead of just watching that WSJ video, and it seems to be out of print (obviously given that it's almost two years old and was a campaign donation incentive).

Broken Machine posted:Is it really ethical to have established this thread, conducting an experiment with human research subjects without getting informed consent first? It's certainly legal under the Common Rule unless he's working for an institution receiving federal research funding. There's not a strong sign of hazardous outcomes, either, so as long as we avoid too much suicidal ideation in response to political outcomes we don't like, in my professional opinion we're probably fine. I have a conflict of interest, though. Maybe he should appoint an outside review panel? At least get a consult.

ReindeerF posted:Is he still working in a Jewish pizzeria when he's not attending his Orthodox synagogue? No, apparently he was working there as part of a halfway house program after his release in 2010. It's been pointed out to me that he has become a big spokesman for the anti corruption movement he released an Autobiographical book about his experiences. He now does speaking engagements and had an XM radio show for a time. I guess it's good that he's at least trying to make amends for his past behavior, but it's still hard for me to believe that someone as craven as he was could completely change his ways. And it also has no bearing on the fact that the Mayday PAC is still a laughable idea with little in the way of concrete plans for the 2.7 million they have raised. They can throw it behind a few candidates, but it's still a laughable amount compared to the hundreds of millions the Kochs and Adelsons of the world can throw around on a midterm election.

They still operate an upgraded version of the old U-2s, but since the 1970's they've focused almost all of their attention on signals interception and satellites.

Truly, the internet has granted us the ability to see geopolitics unfold in 140 characters or less. On another note, does anyone have a link to the Continental Congress' bar tab? I remember an article or image floating around of a rather massive bar tab run up by the founding fathers while working on the US Constitution or the Declaration of Independence.

TLM3101 posted:In other news, the CIA just fessed up to, well... dicking with the UFO crowd. This has been an open secret for decades, but is this the first official confirmation? There's also a fun rumour that the Roswell Incident was a Soviet spy balloon, and not an American weather balloon. KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:"At this time, no one believed manned flight was possible above 60,000 feet, so no one expected to see an object so high in the sky." There's a super-high-speed spyplane nicknamed Aurora that seems to be in development or active use. No official status, but there are photos of contrails characteristic of a hypersonic engine, recorded sonic booms that seem to come from a high-altitude plane at Mach 4, and some fuzzy photos and videos. Come to think of it, UFOs were a great cover story for the U2 program as well.

KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:AFAIK this has been roundly dismissed as a myth. But I'm interested – why would they need another spyplane when our satellites are this good? Planes can do things that satellites can't, like quickly going to cover a specific area and being over the right place at the right time. We don't know the specifications of spy satellites either, so it's pointless for me to speculate about precisely why they'd want a better spyplane. There is a proposal for a hypersonic spy drone called the SR-72, but the Air Force appears to prefer a cheaper proposal with lower speed and better endurance.
