(1) 1969 Moon landing cf 9/11 - Peter Myers, May 26, 2012
Neil Armstrong's interview and narration of a video should put paid to Moon Landing sceptics.
They are not only relevant for the 1969 Moon Landing, but also touch on 9/11, because one of the early 9/11 Conspiracy pioneers, Eric Hufschmid, claimed that the Moon landing was faked by Hollywood.
Overstatement is a researcher's worst enemy. But where is the dividing line between truth and falsity? It can be so hard to find.
Whether Osama was killed in the in Abbotabad Raid is another contentious issue. Conflicting accounts are presented in items 6 & 7.
In any case, it would seem that the wives themselves did live at Abbotabad.
They hold the key to 9/11: http://mailstar.net/osama-wives.html
Their recent deportation raises some questions: since these women may be in a position to confirm or deny that Osama had a connection with 9/11, one would expect them to be offered media contracts to write their story. On the other hand, intelligence agencies have very likely intimidated them into silence.

Legendary moonwalker Neil Armstrong narrates his own moon landing

In a four part interview with Neil Armstrong, the man who stopped the world back in 1969 with his historic walk on the moon, Armstrong talked through those final knuckle-whitening minutes when he realized Eagle's auto-pilot was trying to set them amongst a minefield of slopes and boulders on the lunar surface.
"Those slopes are steep, the rocks are very large -- the size of automobiles," he told Alex Malley, CEO of accounting firm CPA Australia, narrating over a Google Moon version of the landing.
"It's certainly not a place where I want to land, so I took over manually from the computer, the auto-pilot. Like a helicopter, on out to the west, to try to find a smoother, more level landing spot." Footage shows Commander Armstrong spots a smooth spot other side of crater. "I'm running low on fuel. I've got less than two minutes of fuel," he told Malley.
The actual footage shows Eagle's rocket engine starting to kick up moon dust. Then a 30-second fuel warning pings.
"I need to get it down here on the ground pretty soon, before we run out," Armstrong said.
Then a light thump, followed by the immortal words: "Tranquility to base here. The Eagle has landed."
The interview with the first man to step foot on the moon aired over the past week on Australian television on the CPA Australia-sponsored show “The Bottom Line.” Armstrong is just as famous for his reluctance to talk about his experience, having given the barest handful of television interviews since that landmark day in 1969.
So how did Australian accountants get to shoot the breeze in a 40-minute one-on-one with one of the most in-demand, yet seldom heard heroes of modern history, Neil Armstrong?
Malley knew something that a lot of people didn't know about Neil Armstrong, he said: "His dad was an auditor."
The interview is as much a tribute to Malley's desire to make it happen as it is to the man who stopped the world back in 1969.
"When I raised the issue of approaching Neil and speaking with him, it became immediately clear how many people thought it couldn't be done,” Malley told news.com.au. "I very much feel my form of leadership is to show people you can do things. CPA Australia talking to Neil Armstrong, I think should be a clear message that anyone to do it."
"The most compelling thing I felt about him was his humility -- his commitment to his team, his deference to everyone except himself, his respect for the Russians -- I found that quite extraordinary."
Even at the age of 82, he's not comfortable in the public spotlight. Last year, his nerves were painfully obvious as he presented an Apollo enthusiast's recreation of the moon landing using Google Moon images to a U.S. House Committee on Space, Science and Technology. He's far more relaxed talking Malley through it live. In fact, Commander Armstrong's ease and openness has been a noteworthy feature of the hour-long interview.
A CPA Australia spokesman said the response to the series has been overwhelming and "growing by the day."
"We’ve received an extraordinary amount of feedback ... even [from] a number of Neil’s close friends and colleagues who were really pleased to see how relaxed he was in sharing his story publically," he said. In the past four weeks, Armstrong has spoke at length about his days in the Air Force, U.S. Government policy, leadership, success and the deaths of former comrades.
He wound up his final interview by tackling the most controversial issue (yes, Malley went there): Was the moon landing faked? Armstrong answers with a chuckle.
"People love conspiracy theories," he said.
"They're very attractive, but they were never a concern to me -- because I know that one day somebody's going to fly back up there and pick up that camera I left there."

Australian interview one giant leap for NASA's famous son of an accountant
Karl Quinn

There's no accounting for it. After decades of hiding his light under a bushel, Neil Armstrong has opened up about his extraordinary life - to the professional body representing Australia's beancounters.
The first man to set foot on the moon, the 80-year-old American was persuaded to tell his life story for the camera by the chief of CPA (Certified Practicing Accountants) Australia, Alex Malley, who claims he had a little leverage in the matter. "I know something not a lot of people know about Neil Armstrong," he says in the first of four videos that have been posted weekly on the CPA website over the past month. "His dad was an auditor."
Did that really sway him? "I think it mattered in that as a man of his generation he had a lot of respect for what his father did," Mr Malley said yesterday from Vietnam, where he was visiting a regional CPA office. "He told me, 'I like accountants, they've been good to me.' That's a quote I take to bed with me. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy."
Mr Malley approached Armstrong in the middle of last year via an intermediary in the US. A meeting was arranged, and over a three-hour lunch in the restaurant of a hotel in "a very small town" in Ohio, not far from Armstrong's home, Mr Malley pitched the idea of a long video interview.
"I said 'I really would like to do justice to you,' " Mr Malley recalls. "He said 'I don't do that sort of thing.' And I said 'I think you have a responsibility to do it.' "
A month later, the former fighter pilot, engineer, astronaut and university lecturer flew to Australia to do the interview.
The prompt for all this was the CPA's 125th anniversary but the real reason, Mr Malley freely admits, was to contrast the time that produced Armstrong and NASA's grand ambition with the diminished aspirations of the present day.
"This really was intended as a bit of a shock moment to prompt us to reconsider our lack of leadership in the modern era," Mr Malley says. "We did things in 1969 because we wanted to do them. Today, we've got … risk managers who are paid to tell us why we can't do them."
At the CPA anniversary dinner in Sydney, Armstrong narrated for the audience as footage of the moon landing played alongside recent satellite images of the same area. It was intended, in part at least, as a rebuttal of anyone still clinging to the conspiracy theory that the entire lunar landing was concocted in a Hollywood backlot.
Asked about that, Armstrong replied simply that there was no way "800,000 people at NASA could keep a secret".
Mr Malley would not reveal how much the exercise had cost the CPA, saying only: "We considered it an investment in the public interest." Nor would he say how many hits the video had received, though the CPA plans to reveal figures in coming weeks. "Suffice it to say it's lighting up in places I haven't even heard of," he says. The videos will remain on the CPA site exclusively for two years, after which they will be donated to Purdue University, where Armstrong studied and taught.
Mr Malley is convinced they will be viewed for many years to come.
"This is a man people will still be talking about in 10,000 years' time," he says. "I feel quite profoundly humbled by the fact he chose to have the conversation with us."
(4) Richard Gage of A&E for 9/11 Truth to give address in Minneapolis on June 4, 2012

Subject: Richard Gage of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth to be in Minneapolis on June 4, 2012
Sponsored by mn911truth.org/
Date/Time
Monday, June 4, 2012
7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Location: Parkway Theater
4814 Chicago Ave S
Minneapolis, MN
We invite you to this event to hear from Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth. AE911Truth has almost 1,700 professional members who have looked at the physical evidence and, using laws of science, have questioned the conclusions of the government’s official investigations.
These building experts and scientists have concluded that the government’s official version that caused the free fall collapse at 5:20 pm on 9/11/01, in a classic controlled demolition (with pre-planted explosive devices), of the lesser known third World Trade Center cannot possibly be true. (Scandalously, WTC # 7 was never even mentioned in the government’s final report!)
Come hear why the Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth signed a petition asking for a new, independent investigation.
In honor of your fellow citizens who were killed that day, please exercise your First Amendment right to participate in a conversation that is not taking place in the mainstream media.
We especially encourage architects, engineers and other citizens unfamiliar with this information to attend this event.
