Question: How do people use nitro glycerin as a terrorist agent? I was reading about a cargo ship in CA where there was a terrorist threat involving nitro glycerin and I'm just wondering - is it like a nerve agent or bomb - I can't remember.

Answer: Anyone telling you about a possible threat of nitroglycerin being used by terrorists is lying to you. Only VERY LARGE industrial organizations supported & protected by territorial State governments can afford the equipment & training to minimize the risk of nitroglycerin exploding during manufacture: for virtually everyone else on the planet, nitroglycerin manufacture is virtually impossible. Nitroglycerin is so unstable that it is not directly used as an explosive ANYWHERE in the world -- NOT EVEN BY AL QAEDA. Nitroglycerin is sometimes used in the manufacture of other, more common explosives (TNT is an example), but making those ultimately relies on a source for the nitroglycerin, and facilities and personnel competent to handle the substances involved. The cost for a small-scale operation would be on the order of several million dollars per kilogram of explosive produced: terrorists may be stupid, but they aren't THAT stupid (or well-financed). nitroglycerin is an explosive that is so sensitive to shock (physical, not electrical) and vibration -- almost anything sets it off -- that almost no one can handle it safely. slight increases in temperature further destabilize the compound -- at anything above about 55 degF (12.78 degC), the risk of explosion increases exponentially. containers get HOT inside (think of a car in a sunny parking lot all day). BOOM! the idea that it could be placed in a container (which will be subjected to the rigors of loading onto a trailer, transported over rough roads to a terminal, unloaded from the trailer and placed in a holding area, picked back up and put on a shuttle, loaded onto a ship, bounced around at sea for several days, unloaded from the ship and dropped onto a shuttle, unloaded into a holding area, picked back up and dropped onto another trailer that will be driven to some destination) IS PROFOUNDLY ABSURD.

Question: Is mainstream religion all that different from a Cargo Cult? A cargo cult is any of a group of unorthodox religious movements appearing in tribal societies in the wake of Western impact, especially in New Guinea and Melanesia. Cargo cults sometimes maintain that manufactured western goods ("cargo") have been created by divine spirits and are intended for the local indigenous people, but that white people have unfairly gained control of these objects. Cargo cults thus focus on overcoming what they perceive as undue 'white' influences by conducting rituals similar to the white behavior they have observed, presuming that the ancestors will at last recognize their own and send them cargo. Thus a characteristic feature of cargo cults is the belief that spiritual agents will at some future time give much valuable cargo and desirable manufactured products to the cult members. In other instances such as on the island of Tanna in Vanuatu, cult members worship Americans who brought the cargo. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cults Grendel, are you texting this from the back of your limo on your way to a party?

Answer: I assume you have already gone to the Police and (as usual) they are no help at all (I bet they said 'report it to your Bank') .. I guess they are too busy persecuting evil criminal car drivers photographed doing 31mph in a 30 zone and tracking down idiots looking at dubious images on-line ... Why not report them both to HMRC = I bet they are not declaring their ill-gotten gains for tax .. (even Al Capone was bought low by the Taxman ..)

Question: I received a Ocean damaged cargo and noted exception at delivery.? I received a damaged cargo and noted exception at delivery. The seller does nothing for it and the shipping company says the claim is inadmissible because we did not notify the insurance company and provided a survey report. I did notified the freight forwarding agent and ask for advise. They told me to take delivery and have the warehouse to provide report of conditions. I need help to handle this situation. Is there a place where we can file a claim or complain to be reimbursed? According to the Bill of lading, the shipping company should pay $2 US per Kg. This will help. Thanks. MMmoo I do not know if I have insurance. Unfortunately I left it to the shipper. I have FOB on destination. The shipper has to file the claim. He kind of did and the response from the Ocean shipper is, since we did not notify the insurance w a survey the claim is inadmissible. They lie. They said we did the damage and all arrived well. This is from India. Where do we go for help? in US and abroad? The court falls in Singapore.

Answer: What does the INSURANCE company say? Who's insurance is it? If it's the shippers, and not yours, you're going to have to sue them. If it's YOUR insurance company, go to your agent, and have them work this out for you. You cannot file a claim against someone else's insurance company, period. You can ONLY sue them.

Question: importing, i have a cargo coming to the us, what i need to do to clear the load? i need to be an importer?, or just with a shipping agent will be clear?, also someone can help me on around how much will be the charges to clear the freight?

Answer: The common practice to clear a load is through a Customs House broker. These are companies that generally do all the paper work to clear the cargo from the port or airport and can also provide transportation services. They require mainly, invoice and bill of lading (or airway bill when the cargo comes by plane) Invoice is you to calculate the import duties according to the type of product or preference if any. After 7/11 though, the overseas supplier, must also register with Homeland Security and obtain an ID number, for anti terrorist protection.. With this number the supplier must file a report through internet, prior to the shipment of the cargo to the US, indicating the name, address and other details of the recepient. It is a relatively simple process, but without it you can enter into delays for getting the cargo and demurrage charges. By the way, this anti terrorist number should also be printed in the invoice. A good custom house broker in your area should give you all the details... Good luck
