These guys are supposed to be highly trained, I could clearly see that nobody had a RPG as he said. He also said during the clip that most of them were armed with AK47's. At most there was one man who had a camera strapped to his shoulder that could have been seen to be a weapon.

Captain Archibald Witwicky appeared in the Transformers: Movie Prequel and the Transformers live-action film itself. Archibald Witwicky was a Dutch/English sea captain leading an exploration of the Arctic in 1897 when a crew member found something beneath the ice. They started digging and discovered the frozen Megatron. Witwicky then accidentally activated the Decepticon leader's inertial navigation system which led to a sudden power surge. Unbeknownst to him, the discharge etched a digital map to the All Spark onto the lenses of his glasses. Blinded and forever marked by his vision, Witwicky was committed to a mental institution for life, constantly ranting about visions of the future. A few of his personal items were given to his family, including the pair of glasses. These were passed down over time and eventually given to his great-great-grandson Sam. The other Autobots and Decepticons arrived on Earth, both searching for the All Spark and the captured Megatron.

csm wrote: » EDIT: pic is no longer showing up for me, link to a similar one here The whole 'matter-of-fact' look on this serial killer's face is what does it for me in this picture. Chilling. Mostly paraphrased/quoted from Wikipedia: Jeffrey Dahmer was convicted of 15 murders in 1992. One of his victims was a 14-year old who escaped and was found by passers-by drugged and bleeding in the street. The police were called but Dahmer convinced them that the boy was his lover and they'd just had a fight. The police, the boy & Dahmer went back to Dahmer's apartment where the police noticed a strange smell. Without checking it out they released the kid and went on their way. Dahmer murdered and dismembered the boy that night, and the smell was another victim decomposing in the apartment. It was nearly 2 months and 4 murders later, when another man escaped, that Dahmer was eventually caught: "As one officer subdued Dahmer, the other opened the refrigerator and found a human head. Further searching of the apartment revealed three more severed heads, multiple photographs of murdered victims and human remains, severed hands and penises, and photographs of dismembered victims and human remains in his refrigerator.[40] The story of Dahmer's arrest and the inventory in his apartment quickly gained notoriety: several corpses were stored in acid-filled vats, and implements for the construction of an altar of candles and human skulls were found in his closet. Accusations soon surfaced that Dahmer had practiced necrophilia and cannibalism. Seven skulls were found in the apartment.[41] A human heart was found in the freezer.[42]" Two of the police officers that released the boy back to Dahmer were fired, with recordings made public of them making homophobic comments on the night in question. They appealed their dismissals, were reinstated, and later named officers of the year by the police union. One was subsequently elected president of the Milwaukee Police Association. The apartment block was demolished after the trial and Dahmer was murdered in prison by another inmate in 1994. Almost unbelievably, a series of youtube videos interviewing Dahmer and his Father can be viewed here. Pure, concentrated evil.

A picture began circulating in November. It should be ‘The Picture of the Year,’ or perhaps, ‘Picture of the Decade.’ It won’t be. In fact,unless you obtained a copy of the US paper which published it, you probably would never have seen it. The picture is that of a 21-week-old unborn baby named Samue l Alexander Armas, who is being operated on by surgeon named Joseph Bruner. The baby was diagnosed with spina bifida and would not survive if removed from his mother’s womb. Little Samuel’s mother, Julie Armas, is an obstetrics nurse in Atlanta . She knew of Dr. Bruner’s remarkable surgical procedure. Practicing at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville , he performs these special operations while the baby is still in the womb. During the procedure, the doctor removes the uterus via C-section and makes a small incision to operate on the baby. As Dr.Bruner completed the surgery on Samuel, the little guy reached his tiny, but fully developed hand through the incision and firmly grasped the surgeon’s finger. DrBruner was reported as saying that when his finger was grasped, it was the most emotional moment of his life, and that for an instant during the procedure he was just frozen, totally immobile. The photograph captures this amazing event with perfect clarity. The editors titled the picture, ‘Hand of Hope.’ The text explaining the picture begins, ‘The tiny hand of 21-week- old fetus Samuel Alexander Armas emerges from the mother’s uterus to grasp the finger of Dr. Joseph Bruner as if thanking the doctor for the gift of life..’ Little Samuel’s mother said they ‘wept for days’ when they saw the picture. She said, ‘The photo reminds us pregnancy isn’t about disability or an illness, it’s about a little person.’Samuel was born in perfect health, the operation 100 percent successful. Now see the actual picture.
However, the surgeon later stated that Samuel and his mother Julie were under anesthesia and could not move. “ "The baby did not reach out," Dr Bruner said. "The baby was anesthetized. The baby was not aware of what was going on." [6]. He also stated, “Depending on your political point of view, this is either Samuel Armas reaching out of the uterus and touching the finger of a fellow human, or it’s me pulling his hand out of the uterus … which is what I did.”[7]
