 HED:  Jesup up in the air over UFO sightings


 BYL:  By Jingle Davis Special to The Journal 


 JESUP, Ga.  Warren Purvis  says it was as tall as  a skyscraper.  Purvis

said someone later tried to convince  him he'd seen Northern lights.  'It

was  not,' Purvis  said emphatically.   'That  thing was  round and  that

sucker was moving, and I was not drinking, but I did shortly thereafter.'

 Dozens  of sober,  reliable Wayne  County citizens,  including a  deputy

sheriff, an auto mechanic and Purvis, a former county commissioner, can't

seem to quit talking about the unidentified  flying objects they saw on a

recent evening just after dark.  Wayne County Sheriff Jim Poindexter said

Wednesday that on the  night of April 26, nearly 30  people called to say

they had seen  brightly lit objects of spectacular  dimensions which made

no sound but cruised above the treetops at speeds of around 100 mph.

 All of the callers insisted the  objects were not airplanes, helicopters

or any other  recognizable flying machines.  'Most  people described them

as something  with amber  lights flying over  the tree  tops,' Poindexter

said.  'I know it  was something, but we haven't been able  to find out a

thing about what it was.'


 The sheriff's  office checked  with the  Army's Fort  Stewart, about  30

miles  away, to  ask  if the  military was  testing  anything that  might

 account for  the strange sightings.  'We  don't believe it  was anything

 from  the base,'  said Fort  Stewart spokesman  Dean Wohlgemuth.   Wayne

County Deputy Bill  Ingram was eating dinner  with his wife at  home when

their poodle,  Candy, started barking  at something outside.   'We looked

and saw five amber  lights, two up and three down.'  Screven resident Ray

Poppell said he and  his family saw two large objects  hovering above the

treetops.  'All  of a  sudden the field  in front of  our house  got real

bright, like it was on fire,' said Poppell, an auto mechanic.  'I went to

the door  and saw these  two objects shaped like  big W's with  lights on

every point.'

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 known algorithms [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. Our persistent inability to emulate perception gives reason to doubt the current paradigm and to look for an alternative paradigm.      Penrose[7] and many others [8, 9, 10] argue from practical considerations, Godel's theorem, and

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.        Complete instructions for building this simple, deadly weapon  could be given in half the space I'm using here and not require a  single illustrat
