On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vehemently denied a Wall Street Journal report, based on a White House leak, that Israel spied on U.S. negotiations with Iran and then fed what it gathered to Republicans in Congress.
The Truthdig editor-in-chief spoke about his new book, "They Know Everything About You: How Data-Collecting Corporations and Snooping Government Agencies Are Destroying Democracy," at a town hall event in Seattle.
In an excerpt from his new book, Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer describes how leaders in business and government abuse the Internet to deprive people of the privacy that is essential to the creation of a strong, independent self.
As the surveillance state has harnessed the very technologies that were supposed to liberate us, a new book explores the shadowy world of Anonymous, an online "community" that has targeted corporations and governments guilty of perceived offenses against digital liberty.
The U.S. Justice Department kept a secret database of U.S. calls made to and from foreign countries, a new court filing and officials familiar with the program say.
The National Security Agency took advantage of the holiday lull in press coverage and released 12 years of internal oversight reports documenting abusive and improper practices by agency employees, The Intercept reports.
Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer and the other "Left, Right & Center" panelists discuss Obama's year-end news conference, during which the president said Sony should have consulted him before canceling the release of "The Interview." Also, is it a new world for Cuba?
In a few days, the U.S. Army will position in the skies over Maryland two billion-dollar blimps capable of monitoring activity in an area the size of Texas.
Twitter is taking out the big guns in Silicon Valley's ongoing tussle with Washington over privacy issues.
Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer and the other "Left, Right & Center" panelists discuss NATO's coalition amid a cease-fire between Ukraine and pro-Russian rebels; the irony that the U.S. spies "on everybody, but we didn't know about ISIS"; a judge's ruling on BP's negligence in the Deepwater Horizon disaster; and the career of comedian Joan Rivers.
Software created by the controversial U.K. based Gamma Group International was used to spy on computers that appear to be located in the United States.
By Nick Anderson —
The CIA spying on Senate computers is just one example of an Obama administration routinely getting caught with its hand in the spying cookie jar. Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer says on this week's "Left, Right & Center" that "the Obama administration has been dreadful on this," and he encourages it to stop the digital snooping and be more transparent.
A key government document obtained by The Intercept confirms that the Obama administration does not require "concrete facts" or "irrefutable evidence" to brand Americans or foreigners as suspected terrorists.
A spreadsheet leaked by NSA whistle-blower Edward Snowden enabled Glenn Greenwald's The Intercept to reveal the identities of five prominent Muslim Americans who were spied on by the National Security Agency, chiefly, it appears, for their political work and religious affiliation. Greenwald comments in an interview with "Democracy Now!"
Medical centers are jumping aboard the bandwagon of privacy invasion as they buy data on millions of patients both to anticipate when they'll get sick and for their own financial purposes.
A four-month investigation by The Washington Post revealed that ordinary Internet users, both Americans and non-Americans, "far outnumber legally targeted foreigners in the communications intercepted by the National Security Agency from U.S. digital networks."
This country has changed a lot since I joined ROTC in 1981, was fingerprinted, typed for blood, and otherwise poked and prodded. Nowadays, in Fortress America, every one of us is, in some sense, government issue in a surveillance state gone mad.
The Britain-based multinational telecommunications company confirmed that a small number of governments have direct access to the information coursing through its networks.
To evaluate contenders for Rep. Henry Waxman's seat, I looked at an issue that is central to American life today: domestic spying by the federal government.
A new push to encrypt email, keeping messages free from government snooping, is gaining momentum.

Since the very first Snowden leak a year ago, one of the more common refrains from defenders of the program is "but it's just metadata, not actual content, so what's the big deal?"
The tech giant withheld safeguards from parties seeking access to users' email attachments in the latest versions of its operating system for the iPad and iPhone, contrary to claims made on its website, an independent security research firm based in Germany reports.
Angela Merkel and President Obama put on a thin display of unity against an assertive Russia during the chancellor's "awkward" visit to the White House on Friday, much delayed on account of revelations that Obama's NSA had bugged her communications.
Russian President Vladimir Putin held a Q-and-A session Thursday to field questions from the public, joke about annexing Alaska (nope—it's "too cold") and answer Edward Snowden's query about Russia's surveillance practices.
Former NSA contractor-turned-whistle-blower Edward Snowden made a virtual visit to a Council of Europe summit in Strasbourg, France, on Tuesday to claim that the American security agency had spied on human rights organizations, including Amnesty International.

It's long been the Holy Grail of communications: technology that not only maximizes privacy, but also reveals when a message has been intercepted or copied.
The senior lawyer for the National Security Agency said Wednesday that U.S. technology companies such as Yahoo and Google were fully in the know about the spy agency's widespread collection of their customers' data, contrary to claims they made at the time those programs became publicly known.
The Google co-founder condemned U.S. government snooping on the Internet as a threat to democracy Wednesday.
Twitter has stopped a project that would have encrypted direct messages between users, according to anonymous sources speaking to The Verge.
Randall Enos, Cagle Cartoons —
By Signe Wilkinson —
Because when you're the 20-something bajillionaire CEO of Facebook, you can do this kind of thing: Mark Zuckerberg revealed, via a post on the social networking site he built, of course, that he called President Obama to air his grievances about the government's privacy issues.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein's speech Tuesday was a chess move in a contest with the CIA, which has played hardball with the California Democrat's staff.

In the same way that pedophiles are attracted to professions where they come into frequent contact with children, peeping Toms surely are attracted to electronic surveillance work.
Secret documents reveal that British surveillance agency GCHQ and the U.S. National Security Agency collected and kept the webcam images of millions of Internet users who were suspected of no wrongdoing and some of whom were engaged in sexual activity at the time of capture.
In this excerpt from "The Snowden Files," author Luke Harding describes Edward Snowden's first meeting with journalists Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras and how he was not at all what they expected.
Edward Snowden's story, assembled for the first time in a single volume by Guardian correspondent Luke Harding, is one of the most compelling in the history of American espionage.
Yesterday's traitor is today's hero, and the brave journalists who helped Edward Snowden get the word out are at last being honored for their public service. Or so one hopes.
Joep Bertrams, Cagle Cartoons, The Netherlands —
Hackers defaced the website of the game whose "leaky" user database was revealed as a target of British and American spying agencies.
Edward Snowden has once again landed on the list of nominees for the Nobel Peace Prize, this time thanks to two Norwegian politicians.
If former NSA analyst-turned-whistle-blower Edward Snowden is sitting on any more classified documents with intent to leak their contents, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper believes Snowden ought to give them back to the U.S. government.

His unbridled defense of the surveillance state opened the door to the new McCarthyism of Mike Rogers and Dianne Feinstein.
"I agree with what he says," host Bill Maher said to guest Glenn Greenwald in a conversation about NSA whistle-blower Edward Snowden on HBO's "Real Time" on Friday. "And then he says something totally batsh*t."
President Obama outlined what he called "concrete and substantial reforms" of global and domestic U.S. government surveillance Friday, but did not address such key issues as the NSA's sabotage and undermining of global encryption standards.

If you think it hasn't used the same technology in the U.S., you've learned nothing in the last year.

Sen. John McCain may be a hawk, but that apparently doesn't stop him from becoming a conspicuous, if incongruous, member of the chorus of critics demanding accountability on the highest levels of government when it comes to the U.S. administration's surveillance practices.

Rockefeller Center and Big Development Projects
I just saw a CNBC documentary on The Rockefellers. It was well done (not sure when it was originally made). One segment that I found very interesting from a land use perspective was the story of the development of Rockefeller Center in NYC-- you know, famous for the Christmas tree, the skating rink, Radio City, and the place where Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey hang out at 30 Rock (coincidentally, I thought that the middle-aged Nelson Rockefeller had an uncanny resemblance to Alec Baldwin).
The gist of the narrative is that John Rockefeller Jr. bought the land--several blocks of midtown Manhattan--from Columbia intending to redevelop it as a new home for the Metropolitan Opera. Then the Great Depression hit. Unable get traditional investors and real estate financing, Junior took the bold move of deciding to go ahead and build. He commissioned an ambitious plan for developing several blocks with buildings, theaters, the plaza, and the 70-story skyscraper. Rockefeller paid for most of it himself up front, and put thousands to work.
You can read more about it in Daniel Okrent's book Great Fortune: The Epic of Rockefeller Center.
One thing it made me think about is the feasibility of large-scale redevelopment projects. The story seemed to be that Rockefeller Center was a big risk, but paid great rewards (both financially to its owners, and culturally to the city). But the current political mood seems to disfavor large-scale redevelopment. The high-profile failures of places like Poletown and even New London seem to caution ambitious planners away from undertaking too-ambitious plans for fear they might fail, and this is leading to some of the criticism of planned projects like Atlantic Yards.
One way to look at it is that the history of real estate development (as well as business generally) is probably replete with more failures than successes, so perhaps it isn't fair to judge all future projects by anecdotal examples of recent failures. There's also context: while one of the academics in the CNBC documentary described Rockefeller Center as "the biggest development project since the great pyramids," it was still just a few blocks of New York City, so as large as it was it probably wouldn't have singlehandedly sunk the fortunes of Gotham had it failed--where as a place like New London has much more at stake in a major economic development project. There's also the issue government involvement. While I don't know the full story of Rockefeller Center (I'll have to read Okrent's book!), it seems as though it was principally planned, organized, and paid for by private actors. The modern trend toward more government involvement may be necessary to execute a massive project given the regulatory issues and the need for eminent domain for land assembly. The question is whether governmental involvement comes with a price-- complicating the project politically, legally, and financially, and putting the public fisc at risk if the project tanks.
I know there are a million variables that influence why some projects succeed and others fail, and I don't have a scientific theory on the matter. It would be interesting, though, to compare modern and historical large-scale development projects and to account for historical failures as well as the successes that we can remember so much more easily.

The IRS instead saw Yorba as a provider of free stuff. Free stuff is nice but it isnt' advancing science or education. Free stuff is only charity when it is provided to a disadvantaged group of people according to the IRS. Note that environmental activism does not appear in that list.

How we achieve our goals the SMART way
My Story: The SMART Goal System
contributed by Michelle

Setting Successful Goals
My Story: Setting Goals
My husband and I use the SMART goal method (taught a variety of ways). The SMART acronym is specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time bound. I also utilize this method to teach my high school students to formulate goals (education, financial, physical, personal, social, etc). It is critical to write goals down! As an individual and as a married couple, there is nothing more exciting than checking off our list of long anticipated dreams/goals!
We also keep a poster board in our bedroom with sticky notes of different colors with different types of goals written down that we want to achieve (short-term, month-by-month, and long-term).
Here is an example of the SMART method for a short-term financial goal (under one year) I want to achieve.
Specific: Beginning this November, we want to save $400 per month to attend the Dave Ramsey's certified financial counselor training in Tennessee in ten months (August 2013).
Measurable: We'll need $4000 total (counselor training costs $2950, the cost of roundtrip airplane ticket from WY to TN will be approximately $850, and meals for four days will be approximately $200). (You can include money amount, test score, fitness test, or anything that can be measured.)
Attainable: Here are our five steps to achieve this goal.
- Contact representatives about the training and ask questions.
- Send in $500 sign up fee for the training/class along with completed application.
- Make arrangements for time off at work if training falls during the school year.
- Make arrangements for travel (airplane, hotel, and taxi to destination).
- Complete payment for training ($2450.00). Buy plane tickets. Set aside money for meals.
Realistic: Is this realistic or not? If not, reformulate goal. Please note that this is not a perfect process. For instance, I may need to save money ahead of time to purchase cheaper airline tickets!
Time Bound: To be completed by August 2013.

I adopted my Shepard mix, Pitta Atma in 2005. She was and has been an amazing teacher and supporter to me and my family. I had no intention of adopting that day as I already had 3 cats and 2 dogs. When I met her I just knew. I was headed out of town for an extensive trip and CHS was kind enough to old onto her for me a few extra days so that I would be available for her new family integration.
We have been a happy family ever since. I still have 2 dogs and 2 cats so I consider myself "FULL". If I had the desire to adopt again I will certainly visit CHS. I have recommended them many times as a local shelter for adoption and will continue to do so!

Will I lose this oak?
Yikes! I was outside weeding today near one of out large oaks in the back. This is what I saw. There is a black and white bee/wasp type thing flying around and landing on the area pictured. The white part is sort of foamy/bubbly. We have our trees sprayed for borers, but I missed this year. This area is near the bottom, not on the main trunk, but on one of the large flares. The trees leafed out fine with the exception of one dead branch that needs to be pruned. I hate losing a tree!
This post was edited by cyn427 on Tue, Aug 19, 14 at 18:01
Ken, that is one of the flares. No cars (side yard) and no construction. I will run get another pic from farther away to show you, but please ignore the area behind-pups have destroyed the garden there. It is on my to-do list to replant. ;)
Ok, here it is. You can see the spot of white on the right.
Thanks again, beng and Ken. Hope you are right Beng!
The wall has been there for six years. There has always been a hill there; we just put the wall to further define that area and stop erosion. The hill originally started where the siding and smooth part of foundation ended. The level of soil at the garage has dropped more than 10 inches as you can sort of see in upper left of last picture. Except for that one area, the tree seems very healthy.
This post was edited by cyn427 on Thu, Aug 21, 14 at 12:07
You need to ask yourself key questions to know what to do with your tree.
What it the overall health of the tree?
Is it damaged from any severe storm?
Has the tree leader lost? etc
You can use sharp knife to remove that spots from the tree or can use any pest / insect control spray.
Here is a link that might be useful: Protect Your Damaged Trees
Thanks, lucky p! I think you nailed it. I am relieved and will read up on it this weekend, but it looks like it may not be too serious, if I am lucky, too! ;)
Darren, as I said, the tree is otherwise healthy-no storms, no leader issues, well-leafed out and looking good except for the spot which looks exactly like the pictures of slime flux.
Thanks again to everyone for helping. I do hate losing any tree!

Red Leaves on New Blueberries
I transplanted some blueberry plants a couple of weeks ago and, although they seem to be growing quite well, the foliage is turning a reddish color. I have two varieties and both varieties are turning reddish. Anyone have experience in growing blueberries?
It makes a difference if the leaves are actually red, or if they are more "red-brown." If they are red, it is a sign of cold weather, and the leaves should green up when the weather warms up. If the leaves are red-brown, it is more likely that the roots have not picked up enough magnesium from the soil, either because the soil is cold, or because magnesium is lacking. If the condition persists into June, you might try fertilizing with epsom salt, dissolved in water. Unless you live in the midwest, with hard water that contains both magnesium and calcium. In that case, simply water the shrub with tap water, and the problem should go away, eventually. With blueberries, you have to keep checking pH, unless you live in a zone with acidic soil, and soft water. If the pH is above 6.5, the shrub will not thrive, because it cannot get enough nutrient from the root system.
Thanks, Eric. It is cold here, but I think the reddish brown color of my foliage is the tale tell sign. I do have an abundance of magnesium in my soil - so much in fact that I've been exploring ways to reduce it by increasing the calcium content. When I transplanted, I did add plenty of peat to the soil to bring down the pH, and I know suspect the peat is so dominant that the uptake of magnesium has been slowed down. I'll keep monitoring.
We have some blueberry shrubs with red-brown leaves, and I expect these to green up within a month or so. Here in Madison, Wisconsin, our native soil has a pH around 7.6, way too high for blueberries. I am using agricultural sulfur for lowering soil pH, and testing soil samples with several indicator dye solutions, including bromocresol-green, which is yellow at pH = 3.8, and blue at pH = 5.4. I also apply dilute solutions of fertilizer, either Miracle-Gro Acidic, or Schultz's Plant Food Acidic, several times in the spring. I am inclined to think that the red-brown leaves are normal-OK in the spring, but I know that they are not OK during the summer. So I will wait & see what develops. In your case, I would be checking soil pH, there really is no way to guess what's going on. If the pH is too high, over 6.5, you can immediately lower pH with a mixture of 5% white vinegar and tap water, typically 6 fluid oz vinegar per 4 gallons of water.
I was wondering about the effect of the sulfur products on the fungi, in particular around the blueberries. I've heard it kills them off, making less nutrients available to the shrubs and therefore, less sweetness, etc. Any experience to shed on this?
Actually, chilled soils don't inhibit loading of Mg any more than they do other nutrients, except maybe P. The most common cause of purple leaves, very common at this time of year, is a deficiency of phosphorus (P) because of cold soils. P is required to make ATP and ATP is needed to turn sugars to starch and to load sugar into phloem for transport. No P > no ATP > no move sugars/starches > anthocyanin (purple pigment) builds up > plant turns purple. The most frequent cause of a P deficiency is cold soils, which is why so many plants planted out too early turn purple. Don't use your hi-P fertilizers on your containers (ever) - can't say what is going on in your garden or berry patch.
A P deficiency is not the only suspect cause of purple leaves. Nearly any environmental condition that puts the brakes on growth and the accompanying use of sugars, but does not limit sugar production (photosynthesis) can cause anthocyanin buildup and purple leaves.
If only the outer edges of the leaves are purple, it may be a K or Mg deficiency. If the center of the leaves are also purple, it could be too much Ca in the soil or the result of too much water in the soil blocking uptake of P and/or Mg.
All that if it isn't red leaf disease (Exobasidium vaccinii - look for white under the leaves) or possibly blueberry/hemlock rust, which turns leaves red.
Since I can't see the blueberry leaves that the original post refers to, I will refer only to the red-brown leaves on our blueberry shrubs here in Madison. At this time, maybe 1/3 of the leaves on several shrubs are partially, but not completely red-brown. The remainder of the leaf is green. The affected leaves tend to be higher up & farther out on the branches. The leaves that are closer to the roots are mostly green. I think this is a developmental issue that will resolve itself in a few weeks. I will report back with what I can see happening in a week or two.
Our blueberry shrubs are now covered with green leaves. Maybe 5% of the leaves show a small amount of the red-brown tint. So the problem is nearly gone. I have seen this before, and it can get pretty extensive. Our shrubs are in soil with pH between 4 and 5.5, and they have been fertilized several times this spring. It could be that the fungi in the soil require several months to develop, and until they do, the shrub does not take up enough nutrient. But that is speculation, I don't know the cause of this problem.
Leaves of any plant that turn reddish in color do that for a variety of reasons, but at this time of year that will mostly be because the soil is too cold for the Soil Food Web to be working and supplying the plants with the nutrients they need. More often than not cold soils do not allow plants to uptake Phosphorus and that is most often indicated by the leaves turning a reddish color. A Magnesium deficiency is indicated by chlorosis, yellowing of the leaf. This is usually a short term problem that needs no "fix" since it will cure itself as the soil warms. If this does persist them a good, reliable soil test will be needed.
High pH and/or low N availability (usually if over-watered or cool weather is lingering) are the general causes. The issue will stay the same or get worse if it's a too-high pH issue. It will eventually green up a good bit if it's a watering/weather issue. Low N can be a culprit on it's own, but if growth if overall plant growth is otherwise good it's usually not low N.
You see it a lot more in potted plants. It's a bit too easy to both over-water and under-water in pots...and the regimes for it change depending on whether it's cool/warm/hot.
It doesn't look like anything scary such as bacterial leaf scorch or phomopsis canker.
I am new to blueberry planting. We planted 10 plants last fall. I am also experiencing the red-brown leaves just as the picture shows above. I am deducting it to over - watering after reading the above material. However, we were also subjected to cold weather damage here (per the local nursery we purchased from). I have one bush in particular, that has nice green leaves at the base, bare for about 18" and then leaves at the top however, any blooms that come, quickly die off. Should I prune this down or should I just leave it be? Is it too hot for pruning? I also have another bush that has a nice green base but then the cane comes up 2-2.5ft and is completely bare.

But for $5 per flight, an unaffiliated company called BoardFirst.com will secure you a coveted "A" boarding pass when that airline opens for online check-in 24 hours before departure. - Hotel Curators: A growing number of hotels are embracing art and art programs as a way to "paint" a certain image of themselves and to distinguish their product from competitors. The trend is seen by observers as part of the evolution of lifestyle hotels, which seek to lure younger travelers with a feeling and an attitude rather than services and amenities that have become similar across many brands. - Tragedy Travel: An increasing number of tourists are traveling to places of horrific human catastrophe. In Rwanda, Bosnia and Armenia, travelers have been paying their respects to victims of genocide at popular memorials and cemeteries. Even Kurdistan in Iraq, a scene of an ethnic cleansing campaign during the 1980s, is promoting its horrible past with a genocide museum. - Airline Lounge: Flyers can buy their way into the plusher lounges once reserved for first-class passengers and elite frequent flyers. In the past couple of years, many carriers have begun offering day passes to their lounges for travelers who want to enjoy a drink at the bar or do some work before their flight without having to become a member of the club or buying a first-class or business-class ticket. Access to these lounges could cost up to $50 a day.

My apologies to the question owner and others. This response does not solve the immediate problem and won't help but having wasted several hours trying to figure out what was going on and suspecting a ploy to direct me away from Firefox and use Google Chrome instead, I am not feeling particularly charitable.

I have therefore uninstalled Google Chrome and other things Google. In Google's uninstalling questionnaires I made it clear that it was because their search engine was no longer not compatible with Firefox.

I know I am cutting my nose of to spite my face but that serves me right for becoming too dependent on Google's search engine.

Perhaps if more people uninstall Google Chrome and say why, Google may be prompted to do something about the problem more quickly!

Verizon iPhone Could Double US Mobile Games Biz 115
from the inexorable-shift dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
No one knows or cares what processor is in their phone as long as the interface is smooth. And iOS 4 is smooth as silk on that seven month old single core processor.
For games, all that really matters is how well developers are targeting your platform. I'd say they're doing a pretty good job of targeting the iPhone 4.
Lots of people care. Thats why they publish specifications, and put them on little labels next to phones. When the iPhone was a smartphone competing against feature phones it didn't matter - or phone with pinch and zoom...or the amount of applications that it had. It matters more because people are on contracts at Version and the iPhone is getting less attractive by the day. You have to remember that some of us have has the iPhone on Multiple carriers for a long time and still seen explosive growth of android.
Here in The Netherlands, we had T-Mobile as the sole distributor of the iPhone. Since one or two months, the other carriers offer the iPhone as well. Problem is, they don't always specify what works and what doesn't. For example Vodafone doesn't offer Visual Voicemail. I think this is a very nice feature and if it's missing, this should be well-noted. Other carriers offer them with a very tight data limit, which makes watching Youtube and the evening news, or using Spotify, uninteresting.
So I applaud the fact that this freaking phone is available but I'd suggest other slashdotters that they are careful and look at the whole package. And there's something else as well: there's a new iPhone expected around June. Wait a little bit for a discount, or get the latest model.
People will buy anything that's one to a customer.

Help with basement venting: is this a vent line?
lucaslcJuly 19, 2012
I'm thinking about finishing up my basement, but not sure where to get access to the vent stack.
After looking through the basement, I found this capped pipe (2" or 2 1/4") sticking out from the basement ceiling, does this look like the "Future Vent" that I should tap into for basement venting? If so, can I directly connect my basement toilet vent line to this pipe?
Judging by location, this pipe seems to come down from wall between my kitchen and first floor bathroom.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
