NBK2000 Guide.Pdf NBK2000 Home page Welcome to NBK2000 Home of the Natural Born Killers of the 21st century "The knowledge that they fear is a weapon to be used against them" The mission of NBK2000 is to spread the knowledge needed to fight the war against the "War on Crime". Americas politicians have used the excuse of an (allegedly) rising crime rate as justification for destroying our constitutional rights, and for militarizing the police in preparation for dictatorship. So with the future of Big Brother hanging over our heads, it's time everyone wakes up to the truth and gets ready to fight. You can't fight the Goverment openly and hope to win. They'll burn you up like Waco or wait you out until you surrender and stick you in an underground prison like Marion, IL. You have to fight them covertly as an underground resistance fighter like the french against the Nazi occupation. You may be asking yourself "what does committing crimes like rape and murder have to do with fighting an oppressive goverment?" Simple, every resistance group uses assassination (murder) and torture (rape) as weapons against the agents of the State. And, of course, every fighter uses weapons to kill and destroy the agents and property of the State. You need money for bribes (robbery), supplies (burglary and fraud), transportation (GTA), etc. etc.. Below is a list of links for pages on almost every "crime", weapons you'll need to fight the police (or do the crime you want), skills you'll need to excel in crime, and links to penal codes so you'll know how much time you could get. Some pages overlap in content, this is inevitable when you have many related subjects. What you do with the info is up to you. Remember, "If you can't do the time, don't do the crime." http://www.50megs.com/nbk2000/index.html (1 of 3) [1/29/2000 2:32:42 AM] NBK2000 Home page PS If your offended by this web site, Fuck You!

Most people have toasters and they're often underneath cabinets full of flammable materials. For murder, it's necessary that the person your looking to kill inhales the smoke from the fire. If a person doesn't have any smoke soot in their lungs, that means they weren't breathing when the fire was burning, meaning they were already dead. It's little details like that that could get you caught. A good scenario would be to use a stungun to immobilize your victim, carry them into the kitchen, put 2 SPTs in their unplugged toaster, push the lever down and jam a fork inside it to keep it from popping up, then plug it in. Make sure there's plenty of fuel for the fire above the toaster and leave the cabinet door open. When the arson investigator examines the scene this is what he'll probably think: Victim got up in the middle of the night to make a snack, toaster got stuck, victim tried to remove pop-tarts with fork, got shocked, toaster shorted out from fork stuck in it and caught on fire. Victim was unconcious from the shock, died of smoke inhalation and was burned up in the fire that consumed the house. The fire will conveniently destroy any burn marks from the stungun. If your going to do this for insurance fruad, it's important that the circumstances are consistent with making pop-tarts. That means in the morning. You could pop it in the toaster (leaving the cabinet door above open and stocked with paper towels, flammable household solvents, etc), go outside for a few minutes and when the flames are fully developed, go running to the neighbors screaming "911, call 911!". By the time the firemen show up your house should be totally destroyed. Have fun. Abstract Strawberry Pop Tarts may be a cheap and inexpensive source of incendiary devices. Toasters which fail to eject Pop Tarts cause the Pop Tarts to emit flames 10-18 inches in height. http://www.50megs.com/nbk2000/crimes/poptarttorches.html (1 of 5) [12/5/1999 5:31:53 PM] Strawberry Pop-Tart Blow-Torches Introduction Last year, an article by well-known newspaper columnist Dave Barry noted that Kellogg's Strawberry Pop Tarts (SPTs) could be made to emit flames "like a blow torch" if left in a toaster too long. The present work describes our independent verification and experience with SPT-based combustion. Materials Used Only two basic materials are needed to cause SPT-combustion: a (hopefully inexpensive) toaster and some Strawberry Pop Tarts (Figure 1). In this work, the authors used Kellogg's Strawberry Pop Tarts with Real Smucker's Fruit. SPTs can be obtained either with or without frosting; the non-frosted variety were used for this experiment. Figure 1. Toaster and Strawberry Pop Tarts In addition to the basic materials, a number of safety-related items were needed to conduct this experiment. First, a suitable location for the experiment was required, it being expected that the kitchen was not the appropriate place for blow-torching SPTs. The author's driveway was chosen as a suitable site. Second, an appropriate means for extinguishing the SPTs would be needed; a research assistant brought along some baking soda for the purpose. Experiment Preparation The toaster and SPT both had to be properly prepared for this experiment. In order to guarantee that the SPT would receive sufficient heat to begin combustion, the toaster was set to its highest setting and the lever was jammed in the "down" position using adhesive cellophane. A SPT was removed from the box and its protective packaging and carefully placed into the toaster slot (Figure 2). http://www.50megs.com/nbk2000/crimes/poptarttorches.html (2 of 5) [12/5/1999 5:31:53 PM] Strawberry Pop-Tart Blow-Torches Figure 2. Preparation of Toaster and SPT Next, the toaster and SPT were taken to the driveway, and an extension cord was arranged to provide power to the toaster. At this point, we were ready to begin the experiment. Figure 3. Toaster Prepared for SPT combustion The Experiment and Observations The toaster was plugged in. First the toaster went through a normal "toasting" cycle (approximately 60 seconds), which more than thoroughly cooked the SPT (since the toaster was set to its darkest setting). By this point we could definitely detect a burnt SPT aroma. The toaster then attempted to eject the SPT, but was prevented from doing so by the adhesive cellophane. The toaster then began emitting loud rattling and buzzing noises due to its inability to eject the SPT. (At this point the researchers became somewhat concerned that the noise from the toaster would wake the neighbors and attract undue attention. However, we decided that we were already committed to the experiment and that the neighbors would be able to sacrifice some sleep in the name of science.) Soon thereafter, large amounts of smoke began pouring out of the toaster. The researchers noticed that some of the neighbors down the street were beginning to get a little curious, but the experiment proceeded nonetheless. Approximately 40 seconds later, small flames began licking their way out of the toaster.

    International Traffic in Arms Regulations as of April 15, 2021 Page 2 of 246 How to use this ITAR NOTE 1: This edition is prepared by Exports International USA, LLC, and it incorporates all official State/DDTC changes through April 15, 2021. To aid understanding, we at ElL have reformatted this ITAR with an outline-indented format that makes the regulation much easier to understand. For reasons of tradition, U.S. statutes and regulations tend toward a minimalist formatting, with all levels of paragraph numbering and lettering sharing the left margin. This can get bewildering when there are four or five levels of logical subservience, and conventional indent-formatting is more easily followed. NAVIGATION LIVE LINKS: Clicking on the cover page will take you to the master TOC page. We added that master Table of Contents on Page 3, and it is live-linked to the pages in the ITAR. That is, if you hover over any TOC line entry and click, you will be taken to that particular page in the ITAR. Additionally, we live-linked each individual TOC at the beginning of each Part (120 thru 130) to do the same. You can click on the heading titles of the 11 main Parts (i.e. Parts 120 thru 130) to return to the main TOC. As an example, starting with the bottom half of the cover page, it is three clicks to get you to the Canadian Exemptions at § 126.5.

  • GREGORY the Natures of War FINAL May 2015
    !1 The Natures of War Derek Gregory for Neil 1 In his too short life, Neil Smith had much to say about both nature and war: from his seminal discussion of ‘the production of nature’ in his first book, Uneven development, to his dissections of war in the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries in American Empire – where he identified the ends of the First and Second World Wars as crucial punctuations in the modern genealogy of globalisation – and its coda, The endgame of globalization, a critique of America’s wars conducted in the shadows of 9/11. 2 And yet, surprisingly, he never linked the two. He was of course aware of their connections. He always insisted that the capitalist production of nature, like that of space, was never – could not be – a purely domestic matter, and he emphasised that the modern projects of colonialism and imperialism depended upon often spectacular displays of military violence. But he did not explore those relations in any systematic or substantive fashion. He was not alone. The great Marxist critic Raymond Williams once famously identified ‘nature’ as ‘perhaps the most complex word in the [English] language.’ Since he wrote, countless commentators have elaborated on its complexities, but few of them 1 This is a revised and extended version of the first Neil Smith Lecture, delivered at the University of St Andrews – Neil’s alma mater – on 14 November 2013.
