Camping issues

Mill s remark is from Mill (1843). For the more recent controversy see, for example, Campbell and Vinei (1983), Howson (1984), Giere (1984), Redhead (1986) and Mayo (1996), Bayesians in particular have been divided on the issue—the debate within the Bayesian camp revolving round the so-called Problem of Old Evidence (see Earman and Glymour, 1980),... 

Indeed, when new countries like the U K. France or China became nuclear powers, countries which were already members of the club were strongly opposed, but now it is quite well accepted that possession of nuclear weapons by those countries did not provoke a catastrophe. Some even consider that the existence of nuclear weapons in different camps was a stabilizing factor during the Cold War and prevented a major conflict during the past half-century. Why, then, the possession by India should not stabilize the relation between India and China, and by Pakistan the relation between Pakistan and India, preventing major conflicts in these zones At least the question may be asked. In the same way, the possession by Israel of nuclear weapons, in the opinion of some, has stabilized the situation in the Middle East. In any case, when a country has decided that it is worth while to make the effort and take the risks of developing nuclear weapons, it seems that after some initial outcry, the world accepts it without major retaliation That shows some kind of hypocrisy in the initial claim of a fundamental evil connected with the proliferation of nuclear weapons. The real issue is probably to avoid the acquisition of nuclear weapons by unstable, not very democratic countries. May be Pakistan is in that category clearly the West would not like Libya or Iran and Iraq to possess such weapons. A real, major issue is full nuclear disarmament, but this is another story. 

From these killings developed the first haphazard procedure. At first the dead were counted — not to record the crimes but to account for inmates who had tried to escape. The prisoners received consecutive numbers on arrival. Every number was issued only once, so that the last number always corresponded to the total number of prisoners who had been in the camp. At first the numbers were tattooed on the left breast, but later, because of their becoming blurred, on the left forearm. Special additional symbols were tattooed on the arms of the Jews, Poles, and Ukrainians. The dead having been counted, they were piled on flat,...

A patent has been issued for the use of Zr compacts as firestarters (Ref 26). The idea was to ignite compacts which are in contact with a flame agent and to rely on air oxidation to provide a sustained source of heat for the lighting of camp fires and charcoal. The bum time was said to vary, depending on the design, from 20 to 150 minutes at average temps of 1100°K. Zr and Hf are said to have comparable and superior bum times compared with Ti... 

I had a chance to do this in the spring of 1989, when one of my friends, who had left the liberal FDP shortly before to join the Repub-likaner, addressed the Holocaust issue in one of our discussions. He recommended that I read the book Was ist Wahrheit, (What is Truth) by the socialist Frenchman, Professor Paul Rassinier.30 This may be regarded as the first fully revisionist book ever published. It deals with the supposed extermination of the Jews from the point of view of a former member of the French Resistance who had been incarcerated by the Germans in several concentration camps during WWII. 

Geschichtsforschung (Quarterly for free Historical Research), formally Herbert Verbeke, but factually Germar Rudolf, that criminal proceedings have been started against them for an article published in the issue 1/1998 of this journal, dealing with the ground water table in the region of the former concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau (Staatsanwaltschaft Munich I, ref. 112 Js 11282/98)593... 

A frequently cited mechanism of action for these agents is phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibition and the associated antiplatelet effects that accompany increases in intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). In fact, the effects of these drugs go far beyond their direct effect on PDE inhibition or platelet function. This chapter discusses (/) cyclic nucleotides, PDE, and PDE inhibitors (if) the mechanisms of action of dipyridamole and cilostazol (Hi) drug issues and (iv) current clinical applications for dipyridamole and cilostazol, including recent clinical trials that may have changed our perception of the possible utility of these agents for percutaneous intervention. 

The issue of decisive importance in this trial [of Weise] is the question whether the witness Jakob FREIMARK was still interned in the concentration camp Auschwitz on September 18, 1944, as the ITS had confirmed earlier in a memo to the Bavarian Landesentschadigungsamt [State Compensation Office]. 72... 

The first trial in which murder vans were an issue took place during the war, on July 14-17, 1943, in Krasnodar, USSR. From July 15 to 19, the newspaper Pravda brought a trial report which was later published in Engbsh translation as The Trial. Eleven Ukrainians had been charged with treason for then activities assisting German troops. Eight of them were sentenced to death, three received twenty years each in a penal camp. 

Two policy decisions made by the SS-Hauptamt Haushalt und Bauten in the Reich Administration of the SS and its successor no doubt also influenced the measures taken in the camp. The first decision of June 5, 1940,26 stated that HCN would no longer be used, and replaced instead with a hot-air method. The second, issued on March 11, 1942,27 21 months later, instead called for the [...] conversion of all delousing facilities to operation with HCN. A further letter from the Office C VI of February 11, 1943,28 to the Commandant then again expressly states, probably with reference to the letter of June 5, 1940 [...] as per the prohibition against the use of HCNfor disinfestation [...] .

The documentary and witness accounts of such fumigations are numerous, e.g., the order issued on Aug. 12, 1942, by Camp Commandant HSB regarding accidents during the fumigation of barracks J.-C. Pressac, ibid., p. 201.
