A case critics say was bungled from the start may have cost the Sanford police chief his job.

New Black Panthers offer $10,000 bounty for capture of George Zimmerman
New Black Panther leader Mikhail Muhammad announced the reward during a protest in Sanford Saturday. And when asked whether he was inciting violence, Muhammad replied defiantly: "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
'"If the government won't do the job, we'll do it," Muhammad said, leading his group of eight party members in chants like "freedom or death" and "justice for Trayvon" while making the iconic gesture of raising their fists into the air.'

News.Duke wrote:All the story, about the pedophile scandal in Lithuania.
The investigation was soon initiated; however, when it turned out what men were being accused of the paedophilia, the investigation was discontinued abruptly and illegally. One of the named persons was Jonas Furmanavičius, the judge of the Kaunas Regional Court, the second – businessman and politician Andrius Ūsas, and the last one was not identified and was referred to as Aidas by the girl.'
Criminal Code (on the sexual abuse of young children) had to be made against those suspected in this criminal case long time ago. This resolution of the Seimas and the conclusions were announced publicly throughout Lithuania and were also presented to the President. These documents of the Seimas were never disputed or appealed against. This means that the conclusions and the resolution of the Seimas are lawful, valid and can be ignored neither by law-abiding officers nor by the citizens of Lithuania.
'The story goes something like this: A 3 year old girl was p!mped by her own mother, to 3 sick men, for 4k Euro per month. Those 3 men just happened to be High ranking members of the LT Goverment.
When the Father found out, he went to the authorities, but ran into a wall. To make the story short, he was framed, several people got killed hit-style, and he was blamed for all of it…
Then in early April, his body was found tortured, and dumped in Mud… To make matters worse, the “Court” awarded the custody of the little girl BACK to her Pimp mother, in order for her to be either killed or pr0stituted again…'

Archaeologists at Ranheim in South Trøndelag have found a near complete place of worship that was probably in use from the 5th century until it was deliberately covered up with peat around one thousand years ago, probably to prevent its destruction by the Christians.
http://www.fornsidr.no/2012/02/complete-horg-found-in-norway/
-Much indicates that the people who deliberatley covered the horgr at Ranheim, carried the poles from the stave house, as well as earth from the altar to the place where they settled and raised their new Horgr. Because our find and the Norse sources fit so well together, these sources must have been more reliable than many scientists until now have believed, says Preben Rønne who leads the dig.

A deep thought.Duke wrote:Interesting thoughts and Nissenbaum's paradigm lays out ways in which sharing can be a good thing.
'Right now, people are willing share data for the free stuff they get on the web. Partly, that's because the stuff on the web is awesome. And partly, that's because people don't know what's happening on the web. When they visit a website, they don't really understand that a few dozen companies may collect data on that visit.'
'Nissenbaum gets us past thinking about privacy as a binary: either something is private or something is public. Nissenbaum puts the context -- or social situation -- back into the equation. What you tell your bank, you might not tell your doctor. What you tell your friend, you might not tell your father-in-law. What you allow a next-door neighbor to know, you might not allow Google's Street View car to know. Furthermore, these differences in information sharing are not bad or good; they are just the norms.'

Meanwhile here's an interesting Op-Ed in the LA Times that just came out today:
'The drone threat — in the US'
"...Nations with a record of close ties to terrorists are another concern.
Excerpted:
"Drone proliferation raises an issue that has received too little attention: the threat that they could be used to carry out terrorist attacks.
President Obama signed a sweeping aviation bill in February that will open American airspace to “unmanned aircraft systems,” a.k.a. drones.
The technology exists to build drones that fit into a backpack and are equipped with a video camera and a warhead so they can be flown, cruise missile style, into a target. In fact, in September 2011 it was announced that the U.S. Armyhad signed a nearly $5-million contract with a California company, AeroVironment Inc., for the purchase of its Switchblade drones.
A Switchblade launches from a tube roughly 2 feet long, sprouts wings immediately after exiting the tube and is then controlled by an operator who looks into a shoe-box-shaped viewer displaying video from the drone. It is equipped with an electric motor that is quiet even when running, and that can be switched off to enable a completely silent glide in the final moments of an approach.
The day will come when such drones are available to almost anyone who wants them badly enough — including terrorists.
In fact, there is ample evidence that terrorist groups have already experimented with drones.
So what can we do to reduce the risk? One good place to start is the “model aircraft” provision in the new aviation law, which allows hobbyists to operate drones weighing up to 55 pounds with essentially no governmental oversight.
By what logic, for example, do we prevent airline passengers from taking 8-ounce plastic water bottles through security checkpoints, while permitting anyone who so desires to operate a 50-pound, video-guided drone, no questions asked?"
Writer John Villasenor is a nonresident senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and a professor of electrical engineering at UCLA.Duke wrote:The rabbit hole gets deeper?
Flowing through its servers and routers and stored in near-bottomless databases will be all forms of communication, including the complete contents of private emails, cell phone calls, and Google searches, as well as all sorts of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, and other digital “pocket litter.”

The realization of the “total information awareness” program created during the first term of the Bush administration.Duke wrote:Video from all of the surveillance cameras you pass, the data from your smart card to access the subway, your cell phone location information, images from drones far out of your sight, and your political tweeting can be “fused” to create for the agency what it, seemingly without any sense of self-awareness, calls “complete operational awareness.”
The ghosts in our machines: DHS' "complete operational awareness"
“Complete operational awareness.” That is, everything there is to know, about everything and anything possible. About us, the people who make up this country and world.

'8 Creepy Spy Technologies That Can Be Hitched to Your Neighborhood Drones'
"Drones may be so intrusive that M. Ryan Calo, director of privacy and robotics for the Center for Internet and Society, thinks they might finally shake Americans out of their complacency about the relentless attacks on their privacy in the decade after 9/11.
"People would feel observed, regardless of how or whether the information was actually used. The resulting backlash could force us to reexamine not merely the use of drones to observe, but the doctrines that today permit this use," Calo writes in the Stanford Law Review..."
'America's cities may soon be swarming with surveillance drones equipped with high-tech snooping tools.'
Here's the list of "8 Creepy Technologies..." You'll have to go to the story via the link above to get a comprehensive definition of the possible technologies that might be incorporated...

2. NYPD sensor that sees through clothes
3. Biometrics

Anonymous And The War Over The Internet.Duke wrote:From 'The Vice' - Free the Network.
http://www.vice.com/motherboard/free-the-network
You’re on the Internet. What does that mean?
Most likely, it means one of a handful of telecommunications providers is middlemanning your information from Point A to Point B. Fire off an email or a tweet, broadcast a livestream or upload video to YouTube, and you’re relying on vast networks of fiber optic cables deep underground and undersea, working with satellites high above, to move your data around the world, and to bring the world to your fingertips.
It’s an infrastructure largely out of sight and mind. AT&T, Level 3, Hurricane Electric, Tata Indicom – to most these are simply invisible magicians performing the act of getting one online and kicking. To many open-source advocates, however, these are a few of the big, dirty names responsible for what they see as the Web’s rapid consolidation. The prospect of an irreparably centralized Internet, a physical Internet in the hands of a shrinking core of so-called Tier 1 transit networks, keeps Isaac Wilder up at night.1975.

some quotes?
'You can't compare a Dog to a human, when Dogs are not nowhere near as similar genetically as humans.
Humans are the most similar species on a DNA level. Not a good example. Plus if you want to use race from a lineage evolution standpoint that even further complicates the racial classifications.
So, to answer your question no their is no such thing as race from a biological standpoint.'

outOFthePITT in reply to davidcici11 (Show the comment) 1 week ago
Whites are different than blacks, are different than Asians. We share most genes, but not all. Our skull sizes, brain sizes, and coloring are different. Why is that so hard to accept. We are not all the same, (not better or worse), just different. We view things differently, react to things differently, have diseases that effect only one race or another, such as Leiden Factor, Sickle Cell, Thalassemia. We should learn to accept our differences rather than decline them and move on.'

Ghost in the Machine.
Moving on from the German invasion poppoppopopo!Duke wrote:Army General Keith Alexander, the director of the NSA, is having a busy year. In January he dedicated the new $358 million CAPT Joseph J. Rochefort Building at NSA Hawaii, and in March he unveiled the 604,000-square-foot John Whitelaw Building at NSA Georgia.Designed to house about 4,000 earphone-clad intercept operators, analysts and other specialists, many of them employed by private contractors, it will have a 2,800-square-foot fitness center open 24/7, 47 conference rooms and VTCs, and “22 caves,” according to an NSA brochure from the event. No television news cameras were allowed within two miles of the ceremony.The climax, however, will be the opening next year of the NSA’s mammoth 1-million-square-foot, $2 billion Utah Data Center. The centerpiece in the agency’s decade-long building boom, it will be the “cloud” where the trillions of millions of intercepted phone calls, e-mails, and data trails will reside, to be scrutinized by distant analysts over highly encrypted fiber-optic links.
“One day I notice out in the hallway, stacks and stacks of new servers in boxes just lined up,” said J. Kirk Wiebe a senior analyst, who was serving as chief of staff at SARC (Signals Intelligence Automation Research Center).
Passing by the piles of new Dell 1750 servers, Wiebe, as he often did, headed for the Situation Room, which dealt with threat warnings. It was located within the SARC’s Lab, on the third floor of Operations Building 2B, a few floors directly below the director’s office. “I walk in and I almost get thrown out by a guy that we knew named Ben Gunn,” he said. It was the launch of [glow=red]Stellar Wind[/glow] and only a handful of agency officials were let in on the secret.
Shady Companies With Ties to Israel Wiretap the U.S. for the NSA
But Bill Binney (A former founder and co-director of SARC) now suspects that Israeli intelligence in turn passed the technology on to Israeli companies who operate in countries around the world, including the U.S. In return, the companies could act as extensions of Israeli intelligence and pass critical military, economic and diplomatic information back to them. “And then five years later, four or five years later, you see a Narus device,” he said. “I think there’s a connection there, we don’t know for sure.”
In a rare and candid admission to Forbes, Retired Brig. Gen. Hanan Gefen, a former commander of the highly secret Unit 8200, Israel’s NSA, noted his former organization’s influence on Comverse, which owns Verint, as well as other Israeli companies that dominate the U.S. eavesdropping and surveillance market. “Take NICE, Comverse and Check Point for example, three of the largest high-tech companies, which were all directly influenced by 8200 technology,” said Gefen. “Check Point was founded by Unit alumni. Comverse’s main product, the Logger, is based on the Unit’s technology.”
According to a former chief of Unit 8200, both the veterans of the group and much of the high-tech intelligence equipment they developed are now employed in high-tech firms around the world.
“Cautious estimates indicate that in the past few years, Unit 8200 veterans have set up some 30 to 40 high-tech companies, including 5 to 10 that were floated on Wall Street.”
But as NSA director Alexander flies around the country, scissors in hand, opening one top-secret, outsourced eavesdropping center after another, someone might want to ask the question no one in Congress seems willing to ask: Who’s listening to the listeners?
