   ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- Standing in their back yard, the minister

and his wife thought it was unusual to see something falling from an

airliner coming in for a landing at the Orlando airport.

   "I hope it doesn't hit anyone," were the Rev. Robert De Corah's

first thoughts as the object tumbled down for about two minutes

before disappearing behind a tree line.

   Apparently it didn't do much harm. Police and area residents

couldn't find it late Thursday or early today. But the object was

immediately identified by Eastern Airlines as a lightweight UFO --

unimportant fiberglass object.

   The 18-by-20-inch panel covers an electrical plug on Boeing 757

jets and is purely cosmetic, said Eastern spokesman Jim Ashlock. Its

loss did not endanger Flight 389 from Atlanta to Orlando. It landed

safely at 4:26 p.m. Thursday. Ashlock didn't know why it came

unlatched.

   He said he didn't think the panel "could hurt much of anything.

It's a very light piece. It probably just fluttered down somewhere,

like a leaf."

   De Corah said it was "not something you see every day. The door

is probably in somebody's yard and they don't even know it is

sitting

there."

Evidence supporting quantum information processing in animals

              Evidence supporting quantum            information processing in animals                    James A. Donald                    1068 Fulton Av                    Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1505                    USA I show that quantum systems can rapidly solve some problems for which finite state machines require a non- polynomially large time. This class of problems is closely related to the class of problems that animals can solve rapidly and effortlessly, but are intractable for computers by all known algorithms. 1. Introduction      Animals, including very simple animals, can rapidly and effortlessly perceive objects, whereas computers take nonpolynomial time to do this by all...

ARMIES OF CHAOS

                          ARMIES OF CHAOS -      Before anyone proposes more gun control, he or she should know  about a simple, deadly weapon 4 times as powerful as Dirty Harry's  legendary .44 Magnum -- and at least twice as concealable -- that  _can't_ controlled.        This simple, deadly weapon can be made by anyone -- even a  child -- with unpowered hand tools in an hour's time using $5 worth  of materials, most of which are available around the house anyway.   In traditional form it's reusable an unlimited number of times, and  modern plastics have rendered its disposable version electronically  undetectable.  You can clear a room with such a weapon (more of a  hand-held directional grenade than a gun -- sort of a recycleable  Claymore mine) and it's just one of hundreds of similar time-proven  designs. ...
