A pair of praying Pentecostal preachers grounded a plane when they panicked passengers and pilots by saying 9/11 was "a good reason to pray."
One preacher told fellow passengers as the Continental Airlines plane taxied down the runway, "Your last breath on earth is the first one in heaven as long as you are born again and have Jesus in your heart," according to FBI spokesman Paul Moskal. Passengers on the Wednesday flight to Newark, New Jersey told a flight attendant, who alerted the plane's captain, officials said. The captain turned the plane around. "They were sincere in their beliefs and were not malicious," Moskal said by telephone from Buffalo. "In the context of 9/11 it may not have been the best way to promote their religion."

P2P Against Child Porn


P2P Against Child Porn 05/06/2004 01:32 AM
Last year, when other attacks against peer-to-peer file sharing systems weren't working, the entertainment industry pulled out the "porn" card, saying that the file sharing networks were chock full of child porn and it was a danger to anyone using it. Of course, you could say the same thing about the internet, but all the hype even convinced Senator Hatch to push legislation against P2P networks due to all that porn. Realizing that they had something of a PR problem on this issue, it appears the various P2P networks decided to team up and do something to show how they're actually helping to catch child pornographers. They've been working with the FBI to help them track down those responsible for child porn, and are now looking at setting up a system to let users flag child porn so that the networks (and the FBI) can track it down (though, you wonder how quickly that flag will be abused: don't like a song? call it child porn). Finally, in a move that's much more about the good publicity it can generate than actually catching pornographers, they're going to start posting pictures from the FBI's most wanted list of child pornographers on their websites.

Child of Koguryo


Child of Koguryo 08/20/2004 11:51 PM

My father's family root lies north of the 38th parallel, somewhere near the controversial nuclear plant.I never been there but I will have to someday when my father dies so he can be buried next to his parents and ancestors.  While I was born in Seoul, Korea, I have always thought my father's home village was mine also.

Likewise, I have always thought I was a child of Koguryo, an ancestial Korean kingdom from the past because of my father's family roots and, as silly as it might sound, how we look and behave.  I also liked that Koguryo was a warrior's kingdom, much more so than the kingdoms that followed like Chosun where Confucious scholars introduced a caste system and placed themselves at the top.  Well, pen proved to be of no defense against swords when Japan invaded.

From Austin Ramsey's Times Asia article Rewriting History:

In A.D. 612 an Imperial Chinese army of more than a million soldiers marched on the northeast Asian kingdom of Koguryo. Though vastly outnumbered, the soldiers of Koguryo—whom many modern-day Koreans see as their ancestors—routed the Chinese in a victory that is still a source of pride on both sides of the DMZ.

Now, almost 1,400 years later, Chinese scholars are attempting a subtler land grab, claiming that the ancient kingdom of Koguryo was a part of China—a "regional government founded by an ethnic group," as Beijing's state-run Northeast Asia Project put it in June. The argument isn't just academic.

This feud over history is very important to me because Chinese scholars, sponsored by the Chinese government, are threatening an important part of who I am.  My feelings are shared by most Koreans and there has been an upswelling of anti-Chinese sentiments in Korea, particularly among the young.  A good indication is an increasing number of amateur future history novels in which united Korea invades China to take back the land it lost over the years.

While the Koguryo part of me wishes the same, I would be happy if China just left Korean history alone before wishes become future bloodshed.

Iraq's Child Prisoners


Iraq's Child Prisoners 08/02/2004 03:20 PM
Iraq's Child Prisoners It’s not certain exactly how many children are being held by coalition forces in Iraq, but a Sunday Herald investigation suggests there are up to 107. Their names are not known, nor is where they are being kept, how long they will be held or what has happened to them during their detention. Proof of the widespread arrest and detention of children in Iraq by US and UK forces is contained in an internal Unicef report written in June. The report has – surprisingly – not been made public. A key section on child protection, headed Children in Conflict with the Law or with Coalition Forces, reads: ''In July and August 2003, several meetings were conducted with CPA (Coalition Provisional Authority) … and Ministry of Justice to address issues related to juvenile justice and the situation of children detained by the coalition forces … Unicef is working through a variety of channels to try and learn more about conditions for children who are imprisoned or detained, and to ensure that their rights are respected.'' Another section reads: ''Information on the number, age, gender and conditions of incarceration is limited. In Basra and Karbala children arrested for alleged activities targeting the occupying forces are reported to be routinely transferred to an internee facility in Um Qasr. The categorisation of these children as 'internees' is worrying since it implies indefinite holding without contact with family, expectation of trial or due process.''
