Let's TASE the pilot:
Inventor: Use shock bracelet or pay $14 billion a year
"People have to realize this bracelet is not even armed until you are in an aircraft and a hijacking situation is under way," he said. "The bracelets are just bracelets."
Ehm, let me read that again ...
WND reported earlier that an official with the Department of Homeland Security had expressed interest in having airline passengers wear the bracelets that could track their movements, hold personal information and be triggered like a Taser to stun them into immobility.

Daily T A O
Eighty-One
Truthful words are not beautiful,
Beautiful words are not truthful.
Good men do not argue.
Those who argue are not good.
Those who know are not learned.
The learned do not know.
The sage never tries to store things up.
The more he does for others, the more he has.
The more he gives to others, the greater his abundance.
The Tao of heaven is pointed but does no harm.
The Tao of the sage is work without effort.

Present Drift of the North Pole
Scientists1 analyzing observations of polar wander conclude that between 1900 and 1992, the Earth's pole of rotation has drifted southward along the 79.2 ± 0.2°W longitude; that is, roughly toward Toronto, Ontario.
What is involved here is a change in pole position relative to fixed stars or to far-distant pulsars. The speed of this drift, or pole shift, approximates 33 ft per century. It is due to "some sort of mass redistribution" within the Earth.
hus, the Earth is currently undergoing a very slow shift in the average location of the north pole of the rotation axis.
