English students at the University of Wyoming are being
encouraged to
consider the possibility that humanity might one day make contact with
aliens and then not know what to say.
"Interstellar
Message Composition", a creative writing class, is believed to be the
first of its kind to engage writers in a potential cosmic conversation,
say its founders.
"We’ve thought a lot about how we
might communicate with other worlds, but we haven’t thought much about
what we’d actually say," Prof Jeffrey Lockwood, the course leader, told
ABC News.
The course, currently being taken by 11
students, is partly financed by Nasa’s Wyoming Space Grant Consortium,
which sponsors educational and research projects in the state that
support the agency’s missions.
Among questions tackled in Prof Lockwood’s
class is how aliens might communicate, whether they would be able to
translate human language, and whether they would be able to see or
hear.
One student, Dixie Thoman, created a poem about
menstruation with syllables arranged in a mathematically harmonious
order, known as the Fibonacci sequence.
Recordings of
the Brandenburg Concerto and Johnny B Goode are among those that have
been beamed into space over the years in an attempt to provoke an
extraterrestrial response.
The course is being advised
by Douglas Vakoch, director of interstellar message composition for the
Search For Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute in California.
"It could be tomorrow that we’ll need to be ready to
decide if we reply
[to aliens]," he said. "It’s really critical to have people start
thinking about it and it makes sense to start with writers. These are
people who are really trying to express the human condition."

| Tupamaros advierten ruptura con Alianza Patriótica | |

"Si
las cosas siguen estando así, Tupamaro va a inclinarse de manera
independiente, con nuestra tarjeta y nuestros colores, a apoyar al
Mayor Marcos Díaz", previno Irán Brito
Hasta hoy. El movimiento Tupamaro en la ciudad de Mérida, puso fecha límite para recibir un mejor trato, libre de exclusión, de parte sus camaradas revolucionarios, los pesuvistas. El líder municipal de esa organización, Irán Brito Matute, quien además aspira a la Alcaldía de Libertador, denunció ayer que las autoridades regionales del PSUV no lo ha tomado en cuenta como precandidato chavista. "El PSUV no me presenta dentro de su lista (de precandidatos), no me hace las invitaciones para las reuniones de los precandidatos. Estamos viendo que hay un sectarismo, un secuestro nuevamente, de esta institución política (...) Denunciamos, por qué teme este cogollo del PSUV (...) que un Tupamaro se lance como precandidato a la Alcaldía". En tal sentido, Brito señaló que hasta hoy, los Tupamaros estarán analizando la situación en los otros estados del país, donde miembros de ese movimiento políticos, se han postulado también a cargos de Alcalde y hasta de Gobernador. "Si esto está pasando a nivel nacional, vamos (...) a ver qué pasa definitivamente con esos listados, hacer las denuncias a través de los canales regulares, y si no es así, vamos a tener que entonces (...) salir de la unidad que está llamando el PSUV, porque evidentemente, la voz irreverente de los Tupamaro, no está siento tomada en cuenta", alertó. Ovaciones para Marcos Díaz Sin titubeo alguno, el movimiento revolucionario Tupamaro abrió su corazón electoral para brindar su apoyo irrestricto al precandidato a la Gobernación del estado, Marcos Díaz Orellana. Ante lo cual acotaron: "y creo que si las cosas siguen estando así, Tupamaro va a inclinarse de manera independiente con nuestra tarjeta y nuestros colores, a apoyar al Mayor Marcos Díaz". (MB) |

The wave of violence against foreigners in South Africa, which began 12 days ago in Johannesburg, has spread to Cape Town where Somalis and Zimbabweans have been attacked by mobs who have looted their homes and shops overnight, according to police.
Hundreds of African migrants were evacuated yesterday from a squatter camp near Cape Town as Somali-owned shops were looted in the resort town of Knysna, on the south-western coast.
More attacks were expected over the weekend, authorities have warned, adding that additional assistance from the military would be sought if necessary.
"We don't know the exact number of shops looted and burnt, but it's a lot," said Billy Jones, senior superintendent with the Western Cape provincial police.
One Somali died overnight, he added, but it was unclear whether the death was linked to the attacks.
President Thabo Mbeki earlier sought army intervention in an attempt to quell the unrest as violence began to spread quickly with African immigrants accused of increasing crime and taking jobs.
Rapidly escalating food and fuel prices increased the tension between poor South Africans and immigrants. However the ruling party, the African National Congress, has criticised police for reacting too slowly to the attacks.
"The delay encouraged people in similar environments to wage similar attacks against people who came from our sister countries on the continent," Kgalema Motlanthe, the ANC's deputy leader told an international media industry conference in Johannesburg. "We are confronted by one of the ugliest incidents in the post-apartheid era".
Several people have been burned to death in the violence and their homes and businesses looted and set fire to.
Officials said yesterday that more than 10,000 Mozambicans have fled South Africa to escape the attacks which have killed at least 42 people. More than 500 people have been arrested.
Millions of African immigrants have been attracted to South Africa by the flourishing economy and the prospect of a liberal immigration policy.
Despite the turbulent political situation and food shortages, Morgan Tsvangirai, Zimbabwe's opposition leader, has said transportation would be made available to Zimbabweans willing to return home.
He said officials in his Movement for Democratic Change would help arrange transportation for refugees who wanted to go home to Zimbabwe.
Bishop Paul Verryn of the Central Methodist Church in Johannesburg, where many Zimbabweans have fled, told the South African Broadcasting Corp that many refugees still feared further attacks.
"One
senses a profound anxiety and fear," he said.

The historical background, see literature below:
It's simply amazing how pro-capitalist stooges like social-
democrat governments the world over can so quickly alienate their working-class support bases, and drive these people to the Right -- into the waiting arms of openly imperialist assets. If it's happened once, it's happened a zillion times. Italy would be a recent example of this pathology at work. But do we learn from this?? No, we do not. And millions more have died on that account.
I wouldn't be the least surprised to find out that these
seething masses in the Azanian townships have been
'purposely manipulated to target non-citizens' -- as opposed
to their REAL enemy: the south afrikan capitalist class and
their ANC stooges -- by imperialist agents using tried-and-
true MI5/6/CIA divide-to-rule methods. In fact, I wouldn't
be surprised at all to find out that this would have been an
object lesson meted out to the ANC régime by the Imperium, to pointedly make them pay for facilitating the delivery of
that boatload of arms to the equally-targetted Mugabe Régime in Zimbabwe.
And so in the meantime: the working-class of Afrika is being
divided against itself yet one more time, mostly on account
of a complete lack of leadership and direction. But then,
it's hard for good leaders anywhere in the world to avoid
being murdered by the agents of imperialism, on account of
the Left's patent inability to organize with a clear
understanding of just who our enemy is, and how they
operate. And so we're left with a stinking residue of self-
serving asses -- such as those who now control the ANC
government. And the government of Britain, for that matter,
for instance. Ad nauseam.
More on the anti-immigrant riots in the Azanian townships.
And I'm STILL wondering who got those armed gangs going...
Again: their anger is being 'purposely' directed against
convenient scapegoats -- and not against the south african
bourgeoisie and its ANC stooges as it should be.
Someone somewhere is smirking, and drinking a toast of
scotch whiskey.
"Workers of the world unite!"? Sure.
Against the ANC government and their capitalist masters.
Let COSATU call openly for that. Azania has LONG been ready
for a real, socialist revolution.
I wonder if they'd take back all Nelson Mandela's
international awards, then.
- -- grok.

VHeadline intelligence sources: Persistent
'chatter' monitored by intelligence services claim that an "internal"
coup d'etat is under preparation in Venezuela seeking to remove
President Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias from office "within the next days"
or by the end of June at the very latest.
May 20, 2008 - [02 17:12 p.m.]
Confidential and
thoroughly credible sources say that what is initially projected as a
'bloodless' coup may inded turn extremely nasty with US mercenaries
infiltrated cross-border from Colombia who are said to be aligned with
traitors inside Chavez Frias' own administration.
How,
when and where the coup will take place remains a closely guarded
secret and sources within the loyal security services in Venezuela are
hoping that a greater public awareness of the plot will help to defuse
a situation where the blue touch-paper has already been ignited aimed
at the physical removal of the President.
It is
understood that in the event of a successful coup, vice president Ramon
Carrizales would immediately become the titular head of government but
it is not yet known who or how many of the current government line-up
would be axed or otherwise eliminated.
Security tactitians say
the coup is seen as "necessary" by elements within the Chavez
administration to defuse the threat of military invasion of all or part
of Venezuela by United States forces in their relentless quest to
secure oil supplies to North America.
Venezuela's economic
cabinet has been in a state of alert over the last couple of weeks
following credible claims that separationists are prepared to surrender
to the United States allowing major US oil corporations access to
Venezuelan crude reserves in Lake Maracaibo and elsewhere in western
Venezuela.
CERN ‘Nailed Heart Of
Earth’ With
The team of Russian Physicists who assisted in the construction of the Large Hadron Collider for the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), located in Switzerland, are reporting today that an experiment being conducted during the colliders ‘cool down’ phase has resulted in what they are calling an ‘antiquark spree’ that has, literally, “Nailed the heart of Earth”.
Working in conjunction with Chile’s National Commission for Scientific and Technological Research (CONICYT), these reports continue, CERN scientists, while attempting to establish a quark based means of near speed-of-light communications with other Western scientific and military installations, ‘lost control’ of this experiment on the South American ‘anchor’ triggering an ‘unexpected’ stream of antiquark’s which first ignited a massive volcanic eruption in Chile, and in a ‘straight shot’ through the entire planet has further triggered a catastrophic 7.8 magnitude earthquake in China.
Chile’s Chaiten volcano [pictured 3 photo on left] began its massive eruption nearly a week and half ago, and nearly two weeks to the date when Russian Scientists blamed CERN for destabilizing Earth’s orbit causing the returning capsule from the International Space Station to veer dramatically off course from its intended landing zone, and as we had previously reported on in our April 20th report, "CERN Experiment Said To Have Destabilize Earth Orbit".
So disastrous has Chile’s Chaiten volcano become that scientists are warning that ‘long-term environmental damage’ is being done to large portions of South America, and where the volcanic plume is covering large portions of the South American continent.
In central China, and which is the antipode (exact opposite) to Chile’s Chaiten volcano, the effects of the massive 7.8 magnitude earthquake in their country can only be described in the most catastrophic terms as the death toll is now over 8,500, with a further 900 students trapped in the rumble of their schools.
These reports further state that the past few days’ eruptions
