"Investigators believe they have identified a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings..."

"The breakthrough came from analysis of video from a department store near the site of the second explosion. Video from a Boston television station also contributed to the progress, said the source, who declined to be more specific but called it a significant development."

AND: "An official briefed on the Boston Marathon bombing investigation said today that authorities have an image of a suspect carrying, and perhaps dropping, a black bag at the second bombing scene on Boylston Street, outside of the Forum restaurant." 

OR: Not.

I came across this and I never heard about it before. Jan. 3, 1961at National Reactor Testing Station, ID.

The SL-1 reactor was a prototype of a reactor intended for easy assembly at remote facilities such as DEW line stations in the Arctic. It used 15 kg of uranium fuel (enriched to 91% U-235), was water moderated, and had a thermal power capacity of 3 MWt. Five aluminum-clad cadmium control rods provided reactor control. The SL-1 had operated 2 years, with an 11-day shutdown for maintenance being completed at the time of the incident. Three workers were reassembling the control rod drives on 3 January in preparation for startup the following day. At about 9:01 PM the three workers were on top of the reactor when one manually removed the center control rod as rapidly as possible, over a 0.5-second period. The reactor became supercritical, with a total energy release of 1.3 x 108 joules (comparable to 30 kg of TNT), producing a steam explosion. The worker who extracted the rod was killed instantly, impaled on the building's ceiling by a control rod. The other two men were burned and thrown by the steam explosion, one dying instantly from impact with a shielding block and the other sustaining head injuries of which he died 2 hours later (maximum dose sustained was possibly 350 rad). The release of radioactive material was largely contained to the building. Emergency responders were alerted by an automated alarm and arrived at the site at 9:10 PM. High radiation readings were measured in the reactor building, delaying entry. At 10:50 PM several responders and contractor personnel removed one man alive, who died shortly afterwards. One body was removed from the reactor building on 4 January and the other on 9 January. Of personnel/responders involved, 22 received doses of 3-27 rads from entering the building and/or handling the casualties.

I was looking at "terrorist attacks" in the US.

I'm a little surprised there hasn't been a rescheduling--not just because there's so much media disinformation that's getting out of hand, but because there were ALSO so many ordinary people who have been gathering in response to the chatter out there. It seems to me that keeping things calm and under control carries some importance.

It's also possible there have been other developments that need to addressed.

Recall that there was originally a briefing scheduled at 1 p.m., then moved to the 5 p.m. time slot. Then all sorts of info (good and bad, but mostly confused) flew about and then there was that bomb scare. I think things are going to get more confused, not less, without some sort of briefing--even if it's just to say there's not much that can be said, yet--or at east some sort of schedule for one. JMO. Interesting, in any case.

AllenS said...

One more thing. I'm not sure how many times anyone here has been on jury duty, but as a juror you can control the flow of a trial. Lawyers oftentimes look at the juors to make a point, and it's very easy to convey your agreement or disagreement with what they just said. I don't have to jump up and say: "Your full of fucking shit" to get my point across.

chickelit said...

It looks to me like whoever did the bombing is watching the events as the media covers them and is seeking to disrupt them. Hence the hesitance to broadcast anything that will swarm the media.

Robert Cook said...

"Remember the 'person of interest' at the bombings?

"Turns out he has Al Qaeda connections."


And so...because it is alleged that "some in his clan" are affiliated with Al Qaeda, one can assert that he, also, "has Al Qaeda connections."

Now, I don't know anything about this man at all, and he may be a reincarnation of the Boston Strangler (or bin Laden) for all I know, but this is a pretty slim basis at this point on which to insinuate that he has terrorist connections and ergo, may be complicit in the Boston bombings.

It remains prudent to await further developments and details as they are available before assuming anything about the perpetrators of this crime.

I don't need the money. Most of the money will be in the form of mileage payment. 21 miles one way. I've watched some of the most inept lawyers my first time as a juror. I always wanted to say to them: "Hey, did you think about this?", but couldn't do it. Most approach the subject with nothing but presenting their pre-thought-out talking points. I've come to the conclusion, that lawyers, like most people, don't have a lot of experience in life, other than the law school bullshit.

I've said this before, and it bears repeating... back in the 1970's I took a lawyer in front of the bar association, and beat him. His problem was one of arrogance, and he didn't realize that a common man had more of a grasp of life.

I stand by my original statement.

This morning NPR said that a pressure was used to cook rice. I have never known anyone to use a pressure cooker to cook rice. I think it would turn it into mush, like mashed potatoes. A rice cooker and a pressure cooker may look similar on the shelf, but they are not the same. Is it too much to ask reporters to know what they are talking about?

Ken, yes. Yes it is.

And the FBI has met with the distributor of Fagor pressure cookers in NJ, so perhaps global cooker registration is soon going to be a reality.

Inga, it's been my experience that all lawyers are excused from jury duty. Same with psychologist, phy... this or that.

Not a problem. I'm still there waiting to serve.

Bullshit. All lawyers are not excused from jury duty. This was a rape case, he was a real estate attorney. I as a nurse was given a harder time in the pre trial questioning than he was, because the victim had some medical procedures, done after the rape.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the current situation:

1. There is a suspect, or two suspects, identified by video footage, at least some of which is from Lord & Taylor security camera footage.

2. This has been the case all day, but they have not releasd the description of the suspect or any of the pictures or video.

3. They have not said why they are keeping this information from the public.

4. They have twice canceled scheduled press conferences.

I use pressure cookers for beans. I got a new pressure cooker a few years ago (get 'em while you still can!) and was astonished at how quickly it cooked. My first several batches of beans were turned to mush.

Now I turn off the heat as soon as the cooker reaches the pressure where the valve stopper spins, and the beans are perfect.

" I took a lawyer in front of the bar association, and beat him."

I went against a lawyer once too, representing myself as the defendant in a personal injury suit. I was told that was really stupid, but I was so broke at the time, I was going bankrupt if I paid a lawyer or lost, so what the hell.

I won the case against a major insurance company's lawyer and owed nothing. It was very dramatic when after most of the evidence was in, I simply asked the witness if she could identify me positively as the person who harmed her. She could not, because it wasn't me. It was the guy who stole my car and broadsided her. I want my attorney's fees.

bagoh20 said...

I also made the witness try on a glove, just for show. If it doesn't fit, you must acquit!, I screamed.

President-Mom-Jeans said...

If they have a photo of the suspect, and he is NOT in custody or arrested, or whatever they want to call it, I cannot think of one good reason why the photo and description would not be available.

If they DO have someone in custody, but think there might be other people involved, I could potentially see reasons why they might not yet be sharing that information with the public. But the total information blackout is really concerning.

traditionalguy said...

The rules for a jury pool do not exempt lawyers from service.

Of course we are never selected, but we are struck by the defendant's attorney and that uses up a strike so long as we have just said we will be fair.

The unwritten rule is that an expert at anything such as law, engineering, banking, medicine is always struck so they will not poke holes in the arguments of both lawyers in the deliberations.

But a submissive old timer may stay on if the strikes are needed elsewhere.

For the older lawyer an embarrassing part can be standard qualification questions from the judge to all three jury panels in the room whether any of them knows the lawyers, and half of them say yes. Then the judge asks each one if they could still be fair. You have to hold your breath and hope they liked you and did not beat a family member.

Or maybe, on the heels of the admission by one of ObamaTax's architects that it's going to be a disaster, we have the first union lobbying for its repeal.

Or could it be that unscheduled meeting with the Saudi foreign minister? Could it be they talked about more than Syria?

Yeah, I can see where the She Devil would want to plotz herself out on peppermint schnapps.

Pity - earlier this afternoon, Bob Boyd posted a link to all the pictures of persons of interest. Presently, the focus has narrowed to two young men, whose faces are clearly shown.

Yet for the last 200 posts, the bulk of the comments have been about "Inga" and verious stupid challenges and comebacks in comments by twits like Darrell, baghoh20, and Inga itself.

Which shows, I guess, that several people could care less about the Marathon bombings and are all into doing vacuous snark on a social chat board.

I doubt any of the three idiots mentioned even bothered to look at the photos of the two bomb suspects now winnowed from all the other photos.

"...Which shows, I guess, that several people could care less about the Marathon bombings and are all into doing vacuous snark on a social chat board.

I doubt any of the three idiots mentioned even bothered to look at the photos of the two bomb suspects now winnowed from all the other photos."
.

Hey dipshit, I looked at all the photos probably long before you did, and made a number of observations about them, as well as other subjects, and I didn't need to resort some lame worn out equivalency about warriors and terrorists from 10 grade, or attack "heroes" for the 2000th time, but do the math asshole, half you your comments are about Inga, not half of mine, bitch.

So now it's about you, good job.

edutcher said...

Methinks she doth protest waaayyyy too much.

bagoh20 said...

You had a chance to add something, and you chose to talk about Inga, and a little bit of nothing. Welcome to the club.

Cedarford said...

baghoh20 - Sure you looked at the photos! I could see how it was FAR more important than Inga, with you and chatboard fucktwits like chickelit.

Now you can go back to derailing the thread topic.
Have you really exhausted the Inga panties matter, or will you anticipate more 'clever' repartee with her?

PS - read your comments, saw nothing about the two men of N African appearance now flagged.. Far less interesting than Inga or Downtown lad, I suppose...and what you consider your "witty" snark.

I looked at the photos when rhhardin first linked to them this morning. And once and for fucking all, DO NOT ADDRESS me or insult me if you do not want a response from me. In other words STFU. IGNORE me.

bagoh20 said...

So there you go C4, still stuck on her. You gonna add something important and worthy of your refined intellect or continue with the panties meme, because I got that covered. Get your own material.

bagoh20 said...

Sorry I missed an opportunity to stroke your racist needs.

chickelit said...

So I'm thinking I could "voice" Cedarford's comments in my Richard Nixon voice or maybe just with a straight-up German accent. What do others think?

bagoh20 said...

Cedarford got a boner when he saw the brown guys. If they could only be financed by Jews, and be free trade proponents we could have a fucking firing squad at dawn.

Cedarford said...

The two suspects, not as interesting to talk about as "Inga", to some.

Watch....they might get one comment, then it's back to Inga or Obama...And Inga writing about Inga.
Not since the same fucktards had Downtownlad taking over each thread with a flood of off-topic snarks at him - has there been such enabling.
People with nothing to really say making it all chatboard snark about this or that poster...

Anonymous said...

You know what I'M SICK OF THE ATTENTION. You fools think I LIKE it? I don't want the damn attention, I want to be able to comment here like any other commenter without some ASSHOLE jumping down my throat. I could say the sky is blue and some fool would make an issue out of it. STOP ADDRESSING ME. IGNORE ME. How much clearer can I make myself?


edutcher said...

Then quit the grandstanding and the shilling.

bagoh20 said...

If you don't want to talk about her then shut up about her like you have been unable to for every single one of your comments save one. I don't think she even has that high a percentage. You are near 90%. Obsessed much?

rcommal said...

@chickelit:

Yes, there was.

No, everything has not been.

bagoh20 said...

You got something Cedarford, or was that all just an excuse to horn in on the useless social networking. Don't be shy. Maybe she'll talk to you. Otherwise give us that deep insight we're missing.

chickelit said...

@Cedarford: Also, my second comment in this thread was to Bob Boyd about the photos:
Those photos are amazing, Bob. This thing is cracking open.

But you know what? Somebody out there is discounting them. Reports of persons of interest didn't match those two. Reports clearly said "a white hat on backwards." Also, John and Ken on KFI were mocking that website. Not that I trust them. They're twits themselves. That's why I asked in all seriousness whether the bomb scare today was a hoax. There seems to be some fog going around.

bagoh20 said...

I'm watching TV, and I'm not seeing the collage of photos at all, and they were very compelling. It's as if someone is withholding them, but nobody can do that, so why are they not everywhere. I was blown away when I saw them. If I ran FOX or CNN, I'd be talking about nothing else.

P.S. Inga

Plus, Cedarford, after the news black out I got distracted seeing Obama lose his precious bill which he said 90% of Americans and 80% of Republicans wanted. You can't make stuff like that up. It's just astounding. And the petulant antics to boot.

edutcher said...

Wonder how sentiment on that highly popular immigration bill is running these days.

bagoh20 said...

On Fox they are talking about photos, and how you use them and all kinds of bullshit, but NOT SHOWING THE PHOTOS!

Of the DARKIES.

rcommal said...

Also, despite no one asking for my opinion and also acknowledging what I'll be in for on account of posting this:

Of course Inga is not sick of the attention, and of course she likes it.

chickelit said...

rcommal said: No, everything has not been [retracted].

You remain a beacon.

rcommal said...

A feature of Inga always has been that it's ever so.

Bagoh, one of the two suspicious looking guys looked pretty pale to me.

bagoh20 said...

" looked pretty pale to me."

He was faking it.

Anonymous said...

The guy in the blue loose fitting jacket, with the blue bag he had over his shoulder looked caucasion. Did they say they found remnants of two black bags or just one?

President-Mom-Jeans said...

They found at least two other bombs that did not explode, correct?

Why haven't we heard anything about those? Did that turn out to be incorrectly reported as well?

This whole thing stinks to high heaven, and if they have reason to believe that there are suspects out there that they have pictures or descriptions of, they better have a fucking good reason why the public is not given this information.

If they don't have them in custody, wouldn't they want everyone to see the photos so they could spot them and report them to the authorities?

Known Unknown said...

Yes, a real estate attorney who couldn't stay awake for more than a half hour at a time and needed constant nudging.

Maybe he suffered from narcolepsy.

And you, a nurse!

furious_a said...

"Investigators believe they have identified a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings..."

They'd better be white and Tea Party or else Chris Matthews will have nothing to talk about.

bagoh20 said...

BTW, I agree this thread took a crap early and hard, and I helped once it was well in the crapper. I hate these long threads; they're always full of that, and yes Inga is often, but not always the focus, but I'm not the one going back and forth fighting like a child with her. That's others. I'm a different kind of child.

Cedarford, I only go back at you because you did exactly what you are complaining about. You could have just offered something new. That's what was needed.

This thread deteriorated because there was nothing to talk about. We were all just killing time waiting for something to happen, which never did.

I really don't understand what happened with these photos. It's like a damned smoking gun that somebody hid.

bagoh20 said...

The cops better have a good reason, for not getting the public involved in the search, or this is gonna look like a clusterfuck if they don't already have their claws in them.

Patrick said...

This thread deteriorated because there was nothing to talk about. We were all just killing time waiting for something to happen, which never did.

I think in the history of the internet, and probably in the history of conversations, "nothing to talk about" has never once caused someone not to talk. Me included of course.

Cedarford said...

The "Heroes of Law Enforcement" might be shitting bricks about the possibility of the N Africans just boarding a flight out of Logan onto Cairo, Tangiers, or Pakistan within hours of the bombings.
All thanks to PC and lawyers that raised hell about Muslims in the US suddenly trying to leave the country being pulled off flights and detained until the dust settled for a few days after 9/11.

rcommal said...

There's no accounting for when, at last, folks discover an aversion for...whatever/stuff.

Dennis Miller just made a good point on FOX that nobody overseas is claiming credit for this because drones are a real irritant when someone is looking to pay you back. Hey, Obama is good at killing if nothing else. You got to give him that.

Then there should be CCTV from Logan's departure gates that they could compare to footage from the race.

Like the footage of Mohammed Attah and Abdul Omari boarding their connecting flight to Logan for their rendezvous with AA Flight 11 and the North Tower.

bagoh20 said...

Unless the timers were very long, Logan was not an exit. I doubt they would expect to get out that way. You still have to land hours later somewhere, and where that is will be known. You are not effectively running or hiding while on a plane for long periods of time.

Major fertilizer plant explosion near Waco Texas. Many injured.

Major fertilizer plant explosion near Waco Texas. Many injured.

FYI: Ammonium nitrate doesn't chemically react with water. It may have been heat from the fire or some weird sudden heat of hydration phenomenon. Water actually quenches ammonium nitrate.

chickelit said...

"Keep your powder dry" refers (a) to gunpowder, which is chemically related to nitrate fertilizers, and (b) to the notion of it getting wet and going bad, not exploding violently.

Calcium carbide (which built Union Carbide) is a different story: it reacts with water to make an explosive gas.

I could talk chemistry all night.

chickelit said...

It was a small fire and then water got sprayed on the ammonia nitrate, and it exploded just like the Oklahoma City bomb

MayBee said...

Rcommal- are you afraid they have someone but aren't bringing him to court because they need to get info about other plots out of him?

Gary Rosen said...

" the Ingas and Downtownlads that make the thread all about a person on the thread"

Did DTL comment on this thread? In fact has he commented at all recently? 'smatter, Fudd, did he jilt you?

Gary Rosen said...

"People with nothing to really say making it all chatboard snark"

Bwahaha. How many times has the Flophouse Masturbator gone OT with a jooooo-rant?

It refers to black powder which is hygroscopic. It has the ability to absorb moisture from the air.

If he was good at it, we wouldn't be talking about this.

Robert Cook said...

"Dennis Miller just made a good point on FOX that nobody overseas is claiming credit for this because drones are a real irritant when someone is looking to pay you back."

Has Dennis Miller ever made a good point? Given that we're killing people indiscriminately all the time overseas by drone, I doubt that those responsible for the Boston bombings, if they are overseas, would refrain from claiming credit simply to avoid drawing drone fire.

"Hey, Obama is good at killing if nothing else. You got to give him that."

Yep, he's a mass murderer just like his predecessor. They would be lifetime cellies in a just world.

Rusty said...

But then again so is ammonium nitrate. It has to be dried out and then mixed with an accelerent.

AllenS said...

How do you feel about our men and women who serve in the military, Mr. Cook?

Tank said...

Allen

I can't speak for Cook, but many of us appreciate, and are grateful for, our men and women (well, really the men) in the services. It's the policy decisions made by politicians and politically motivated high level armed force personnel we disagree with.

There's a big difference there. I still keep my Dad's purple heart and discharge papers, but that does not mean I have to agree with invading Iraq, or nation building in other countries, or having 120 thousand troops stationed abroad permanently.

Apparently its never occurred to Inga to stop being an asshole to others.

B said...

Essentially true using dry accelerants. A slurry mixture with fuel oil acting as the accelerant was used at least as part of the Oklahoma City bomb if I recall correctly.

Robert Cook said...

"How do you feel about our men and women who serve in the military, Mr. Cook?"

It always come down to this childish question about "the troops," doesn't it? As if condemning Hitler's war of conquest in Europe and his plans for a "Final Solution' is to hold each and every low level German infantryman responsible for Hitler's crimes.

But, to answer your question, that depends on each soldier's behavior.

Most are in service because it's the best job they could get or because they want to serve their country. Most try to do their jobs well and honorably. Ultimately, as with any employee of any organization, they are merely there to serve the policies and follow the orders of their bosses in Washington. For those who serve in combat, they are basically just the guns and those in Washington who make the war plans are the fingers who pull the triggers, so it is the war planners in Washington who bear greatest responsibility for war crimes. However, troops or individual soldiers who commit atrocities in war, either because they have lost all restraint or because they are following unlawful orders, should be condemned for committing criminal acts.

Is any of this really so hard to understand, or is the perennial question about those who serve merely a rhetorical sham, a "gotcha!" meant to somehow embarrass the critic of wartime crimes?

Cook, as always, get it wrong.

Say what you will about the wisdom of the policy, those hits are very discriminating. Any explosive risks some collateral casualties, but we're lightyears away from the 1000 palne raids of WWII.

Uh, no, that's wrong and it's been wrong for a long time.

The ones who would be there because "it's the best job they could get" aren't there. The military is very picky these days and has been since Reagan's time. Of course, anyone wanting to serve his country is suspect in Cook's eyes.

chickelit said...

Yes, but that doesn't render it more explosive. Which is why the fireman's statement "It was a small fire and then water got sprayed on the ammonia[sic] nitrate, and it exploded just like the Oklahoma City bomb" is so strange.

Yes it is strange. I wonder if some of it got saturated by propane or some other hydocarbon and then a propane tank exploded. An exploding tank of propane would make a good initiator.
I'm loath to cry terrorism when it might just as well be negligence.
