# AREA 51 PICS IN THE BLACK VAULT. For the past three days, nothing else but
  Area 51, Area 51, Area 51 is heard throughout the UFO Community. Yet,there
  are no pictures. TerraServer.com, the company which hosts these images was
  attacked by hackers,and flooded by users trying to get a new look at these
  fantastic images. But, they were left with a dead entrance, a door which
  couldn't be opened, until now. The Black Vault (www.blackvault.com) and
  SpiderWebGroup Internet Services (www.spiderwebgroup.com) have teamed up
  to bring you some of these fantastic images. With over twenty images to
  view of Area 51, you now can get your first glimpse of what this secret
  base holds. You can see them at: http://www.blackvault.com/area_51.html
  Please note that all images are copyrighted to their respective owners.

: Have you looked at the pictures? Have the pictures looked at you? Did any-
one see anything untowards/outré/paranormal/secret? Are the images signifi-
cant? If I posted/hyped some bullshit images, would I cause a Net.Jam? Eh?

# Hacker zaps access to Area 51 pics. RALEIGH, NC (AP) - A hacker disrupted
  service for 36 hours to a Web site showing detailed satellite images of
  Area 51, the top-secret Air Force site in Nevada. Aerial Images Inc. said
  the hacker struck 6 hours after 5 images of the desert proving ground were
  loaded onto the site <http://www.terraserver.com>. The attack, combined
  with traffic 10 times what the site usually bears, meant millions of geeks
  found access difficult or impossible. Service was disrupted for 4 days.

# Filipinos celebrate Good Friday with blood. SAN PEDRO CUTUD, Philippines
  (AP) - Thousands of tourists flocked here Friday to watch a bizarre high-
  light of Easter week celebrations in Asia's largest Catholic nation - the
  nailing of penitents to crosses in re-enactments of Jesus' death. At least
  9 Filipinos, including a woman, hope to be "crucified" on 3 crosses on a
  small hill outside San Pedro Cutud,a farming village north of Manila. Most
  stay on the crosses under a hot sun for only a few minutes in the ritual
  that has continued more than 40 years. The faithful believe it is a form
  of penance that helps prayers get answered. Throughout the Philippines,
  thousands of bloody penitents, including children, observed Good Friday
  by walking barefoot through dusty village streets beating their bare
  backs with ropes and pieces of wood, splashing spectators with blood.
