My Google Search

When I entered the coupon address, I ended up in Newburg, ND based on the zipcode. One photo popped up of Newburg High School. Look at the roof of the building in the center. Also there is mad resolution on this image, not your typical google map submitted image size. I went on to look at most of the photos in the surrounding areas and have found nothing else, but cmon, that TOTALLY looks like a creepy gray chillin on the roof.

Lol that's just your mind playing tricks on you now. You are seeing something because you want to. I'm guessing that happens a lot with arg's though Smile

I haven't invested the time to really look into this much, but have we considered the possibility that the Rocket Poppeteers site image is being used to hide information? I know that .gif files are fairly common in steganography.

Granted it is titled "temp.gif" so I'm sort of doubting that they've hidden anything in the slack space, but if we don't get an update to the site in the next couple days it may be worth looking into.

I'm at work at the moment, otherwise I'd grab a copy of S-Tools and have a whack at it right now for giggles. Maybe if nothing's turned up when I get home in the morning, I'll take a stab at it.

Just looks like squiggles to me. They don't seem to match up.

...death by viral...

new to arg, tried to play cloverfield but got too tired...holy crap i just looked at the clock on my computer, it's 5:24 am. This is not conducive to maintaining job and school...anyway my brother thinks that there is something hidden in the second page besides the sharpie message. apparently if you cut out the coupon and keep the pages as they are for the sharpie message highlights 'Under Secretary warned...' he's still trying to find out if there's more, i think he's just reading into things but, meh...it's 5:24 in the morning, i'm supposed to be up in an hour, grrr...

So I had a bit of free time and ran the temp.gif file through a couple of tools to see if I could dig anything out of it. My knowledge of steganalysis is a bit limited, but from what I can tell there's nothing embedded. Big surprise, right?

For those interested, I first ran the image through the Digital Invisible Ink Toolkit to do an analysis on least significant bits. That was fairly inconclusive (though not really promising), so I fired up S-Tools and shotgunned it with a bunch of possible passphrases (Coop, AF-B4, Bonham, RSCOM8, and some other phrases that seemed likely) using the IDEA, DES, Triple DES, and MDC algorithms. Nada there, as well.

I think this is, after all, a legitimately clean .gif image. But it was fun to obsess over it for a couple hours.


Edit:
My, how the time flies. We're just an hour away from a possible development, aren't we?

Your brother is right, but that was discoverd about 30 min. after we found the pics. I don't remember the exact words, but if you hold them back to back it was something like "no certainty if alive, it may come after us, we go underground". There has been some debate as to the order of the found words in the sentence

One question. Why is the Rocket Poppeteers logo about 2/3 of the screen? If you highlight it, you can see that it is just a square in the middle. It's probably nothing, but I just thought it was weird. *shrug* I'll be back on in the afternoon.

I'm surprised nobody else checked, but the anniversary was actually at 5:04 am PT.

[quote]Wikipedia: At 8:04:13 a.m. EST, May 15, 1963,[1] Faith 7 was launched from Launch Complex 14./quote]

Either way, the Rocket Poppeteers site is still down. I'll keep looking around for anything, but I guess we still simply wait.

Under Secretary Harriman
Under Secretary Harriman

Did some research on Under Secretary Harriman mentioned in the article and found some interesting stuff...

Harriman's associated properties included the Southern Pacific Railroad (including the Central Pacific Railroad), Illinois Central Railroad

Member of Skull & Bones society

Under US Secretary of State, Political Affairs, 1963-65

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._Averell_Harriman

Harriman can, just like Cooper http://super8.wikibruce.com/Gordon_Cooper , be linked to mind control:

Harriman would later be in the thick of organizing CIA mind control programs, creating the Psychological Strategy Board (PSB) in 1951.

Another close Harriman associate was Bonesman Eugene Stetson...Stetson organized the Smith Richardson foundation an organization involved in CIA MKULTRA mind control
funding....

http://books.google.nl/books?id=zzY6qjOpSoEC&pg=PA67&lpg=PA67&dq=harriman+mind+control&source=bl&ots=dba20Nu1Dm&sig=PxObfm5gvkfTox4zf_P4en3gkrs&hl=nl&ei=Q6zuS5u0A82vOKTHzIII&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CB4Q6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=harriman%20mind%20control&f=false


"A classified 1952 study by the US government's Psychological Strategy Board laid out an entire agenda for behavior-control research. Calling communist brainwashing 'a serious threat to mankind,' scientists urged that drugs, electric shock and other techniques be examined in 'clinical studies'done in a remote situation'"

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was placed as the forerunner in mind control research. This was accomplished through the establishment of a program code-named MKULTRA. The primary objective of MKULTRA was to forge ahead of the Communists' research and to become more effective in this area. "MKULTRA was established to counter perceived Soviet and Chinese advances in brain washing and interrogation techniques" (McGonigle, 1999). While the Department of Defense worked to rapidly counter Communist weapons capabilities, the CIA attempted to extend the arms race to the inclusion of actual human beings. An inherent moral issue, the government ignored the scientific guidelines that had been established for the use of experimentation on
humans by the Nuremberg trials (generally referred to as "the Nuremberg Principle").

http://www.bethel.edu/~kisrob/hon301k/project/Final/mind_control.htm

Averell Harriman personally arranged with the Walker/Bush Hamburg-Amerika Line to transport Nazi ideologues from Germany to New York for this meeting. 11 The most famous among those transported was Dr. Ernst Rudin, psychiatrist at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Genealogy and Demography in Berlin, where the Rockefeller family paid for Dr. Rudin to occupy an entire floor with his eugenics 'research.' Dr. Rudin had addressed the International Federation's 1928 Munich meeting, speaking on 'Mental Aberration and Race Hygiene,' while others (Germans and Americans) spoke on race-mixing and sterilization of the unfit.

not sure if this leads to something but it is quite interesting...
