Two Google leaders have written a manifesto for technocratic imperialism.
luiy's insight:
"THE New Digital Age" is a startlingly clear and provocative blueprint for technocratic imperialism, from two of its leading witch doctors, Eric Schmidt and Jared Cohen, who construct a new idiom for United States global power in the 21st century. This idiom reflects the ever closer union between the State Department and Silicon Valley, as personified by Mr. Schmidt, the executive chairman of Google, and Mr. Cohen, a former adviser to Condoleezza Rice and Hillary Clinton who is now director of Google Ideas.
The authors offer an expertly banalized version of tomorrow's world: the gadgetry of decades hence is predicted to be much like what we have right now — only cooler. "Progress" is driven by the inexorable spread of American consumer technology over the surface of the earth. Already, every day, another million or so Google-run mobile devices are activated. Google will interpose itself, and hence the United States government, between the communications of every human being not in China (naughty China). Commodities just become more marvelous; young, urban professionals sleep, work and shop with greater ease and comfort; democracy is insidiously subverted by technologies of surveillance, and control is enthusiastically rebranded as "participation"; and our present world order of systematized domination, intimidation and oppression continues, unmentioned, unafflicted or only faintly perturbed.
The Department of Justice admitted in March that it was in its third year of a continuing criminal investigation of WikiLeaks. Court testimony states that its targets include "the founders, owners, or managers of WikiLeaks." One alleged source, Bradley Manning, faces a 12-week trial beginning tomorrow, with 24 prosecution witnesses expected to testify in secret.
This book is a balefully seminal work in which neither author has the language to see, much less to express, the titanic centralizing evil they are constructing. "What Lockheed Martin was to the 20th century," they tell us, "technology and cybersecurity companies will be to the 21st." Without even understanding how, they have updated and seamlessly implemented George Orwell's prophecy. If you want a vision of the future, imagine Washington-backed Google Glasses strapped onto vacant human faces — forever. Zealots of the cult of consumer technology will find little to inspire them here, not that they ever seem to need it. But this is essential reading for anyone caught up in the struggle for the future, in view of one simple imperative: Know your enemy.
Robert McNamara epitomizes the hyper-rational executive led astray by numbers.
luiy's insight:
Big data is poised to transform society, from how we diagnose illness to how we educate children, even making it possible for a car to drive itself. Information is emerging as a new economic input, a vital resource. Companies, governments, and even individuals will be measuring and optimizing everything possible.
But there is a dark side. Big data erodes privacy. And when it is used to make predictions about what we are likely to do but haven't yet done, it threatens freedom as well. Yet big data also exacerbates a very old problem: relying on the numbers when they are far more fallible than we think. Nothing underscores the consequences of data analysis gone awry more than the story of Robert McNamara.
Google's deference to data has been taken to extremes. To determine the best color of a toolbar on the website, Marissa Mayer, when she was one of Google's top executives before going to Yahoo, once ordered staff to test 41 gradations of blue to see which ones people used more. In 2009, Google's top designer, Douglas Bowman, quit in a huff because he couldn't stand the constant quantification of everything. "I had a recent debate over whether a border should be 3, 4 or 5 pixels wide, and was asked to prove my case. I can't operate in an environment like that," he wrote on a blog announcing his resignation. "When a company is filled with engineers, it turns to engineering to solve problems. Reduce each decision to a simple logic problem. That data eventually becomes a crutch for every decision, paralyzing the company."
This is the dictatorship of data. And it recalls the thinking that led the United States to escalate the Vietnam War partly on the basis of body counts, rather than basing decisions on more meaningful metrics. "It is true enough that not every conceivable complex human situation can be fully reduced to the lines on a graph, or to percentage points on a chart, or to figures on a balance sheet," said McNamara in a speech in 1967, as domestic protests were growing. "But all reality can be reasoned about. And not to quantify what can be quantified is only to be content with something less than the full range of reason." If only the right data were used in the right way, not respected for data's sake.
Robert Strange McNamara went on to run the World Bank throughout the 1970s, then painted himself as a dove in the 1980s. He became an outspoken critic of nuclear weapons and a proponent of environmental protection. Later in life he produced a memoir, In Retrospect, that criticized the thinking behind the war and his own decisions as secretary of defense. "We were wrong, terribly wrong," he famously wrote. But McNamara, who died in 2009 at age 93, was referring to the war's broad strategy. On the question of data, and of body counts in particular, he remained unrepentant. He admitted that many of the statistics were "misleading or erroneous." "But things you can count, you ought to count. Loss of life is one."
Big data will be a foundation for improving the drugs we take, the way we learn, and the actions of individuals. However, the risk is that its extraordinary powers may lure us to commit the sin of McNamara: to become so fixated on the data, and so obsessed with the power and promise it offers, that we fail to appreciate its inherent ability to mislead.

Ever wonder what it would look like to plot every single geotagged tweet since 2009 on a map? Twitter has done just that.
Twitter posted these maps of Europe, New York City, Tokyo and Istanbul on its blog Friday. They use billions of geotagged tweets: Every dot represents a tweet, with the brighter colors showing a higher concentration of tweets. It's pretty amazing how the mapped-out tweets clearly match with population centers, highways and the like — though perhaps that's obvious.

Building resilience
The authors say the sex education curriculum needs to be more relevant to young people's lives and include pornography.
They also call for more emphasis on relationship education in secondary schools.
"We think it's really important that the curriculum includes pornography to help build children's resilience to what they are seeing on the internet - to help them differentiate between what they are seeing and good healthy relationships which are not about submission and not about being forced," said Ms Berelowitz.
She added that parents needed to recognise the effect of pornography on their children.

In coming years, neuroscience will answer questions we don't even yet know to ask. Sometimes, though, focus on the brain is misleading.
Via Spaceweaver
luiy's insight:
Understanding the brain is of course essential to developing treatments for devastating illnesses like schizophrenia and Parkinson's. More abstract but no less compelling, the functioning of the brain is intimately tied to our sense of self, our identity, our memories and aspirations. But the excitement to explore the brain has spawned a new fixation that my colleague Scott Lilienfeld and I call neurocentrism -- the view that human behavior can be best explained by looking solely or primarily at the brain.

luiy's insight:
There used to be all sorts of criticisms of the old "culture industries" like Hollywood and the top 40, which entertained us with stories or songs that always ended on an upbeat note, no matter how false. But at least the culture industries went to the bother of entertaining us. Their replacements don't even bother. They expect us to entertain each other, and pay a tax for it. Facebook or Google's YouTube are not the culture industries so much as the vulture industries, taking an information surcharge from us while we amuse each other, and selling us to advertisers. Like do-it-yourself commercial TV.
These are all elements of what I call the "spectacle of disintegration". The old spectacle of television and radio papered the world with images of what the lovely soul of the commodity was supposed to look like. We were at least still free to daydream while we sat idly watching.
But in the spectacle of disintegration, all that breaks apart. The big screen decays into so many little screens. Our leisure time is now to be spent producing information for the vulture industries of Google and co, in an unequal exchange of information. In exchange for the poll tax of personal data, we get to watch each other's cat videos, while Google becomes some new version of the state, presiding over all our bitty lives, master of all our data, in aggregate.
Like any state, Google has its patriots. But there are also those who think this latest version of the spectacle offers some quirky avenues for having fun at its expense. Its time for a certain opacity, a certain glamour of obscurity. Not all the information we offer up has to be even remotely true.
It's 45 years since the failure of May '68, that last attempt to rock the old kind of state. Afterwards the Situationists, who gave us the concept of the spectacle, disbanded. But they did not go silent. They pioneered ways of discreetly carving out spaces where other codes apply, protected by cryptic passwords. Perhaps some of their subtle arts might work within the belly of this new digital beast, so that we might live within it, but not give it our undivided attention.

At this week's Big Data in Biomedicine conference, David Ewing Duncan, author of Experimental Man, delivered a keynote speech titled "You as Data: Can Big Data Predict Your Future Health?"
Using himself as a guinea pig to explore the new age of personalized health, Duncan has collected close to 30,000 genetic traits about himself through numerous medical tests and scans and noted, "If everyone on the planet had this much data collected, you'd be in something called yottabytes"
In his talk, Duncan revealed what he's learned from this tremendous reservoir of personal health data and discussed promising biomedical technologies and research that may boost longevity and lead to radical life extension. He urged attendees to contemplate how long they wanted to live - giving them the choice of 80 years, 120 years, 150 years or forever -and the implications of living that long.

Citing a critical shortage Silicon Valley heavyweights have been lobbying for immigration reform that will allow high tech firms to hire more workers...
luiy's insight:
Code.org, the high-profile industry effort to push for more computer science and programming in K-12 education, correctly highlights the growing need for programmers and the dearth of educational opportunities to learn to code. But the reasons for the high tech talent gap run deeper than a simple lack of curricular offerings.
The statistics on the code.org site are silent as to issues of diversity and equity, and fail to point out that coders are overwhelmingly white, Asian, and male. If almost all non-Asian minorities and women feel that coding is not for them, we have reduced our potential pool of high tech talent to a fraction of the population.
Despite a deserved reputation for progressiveness, the tech sector is highly exclusionary to those who don't fit the geek stereotype--and this tendency is getting worse, especially in Silicon Valley. You might have heard, based on 2011 numbers, that only 25 percent of the U.S. high tech workforce is female, and the percentages have been in steady decline since the nineties. The numbers for minority women are even more dismal. Hispanic women represent 1 percent of the high tech workforce, and African-American women don't fare much better, at 3 percent. The better the jobs, the lower the proportions are of women and non-Asian minorities. Despite the diversity of the population of the region, Silicon Valley, which boasts the highest salaries among tech regions, fares much worse than the national numbers.
We know that the more diverse the ecosystem of talent, the more innovative are the solutions that result. If we really care about the talent gap in high tech, innovation, and entrepreneurism, we need to do more than look overseas, or push classes and school requirements at kids. We need to build a sense of relevance and social connection into what it means to be a coder for a wide diversity of kids. Groups such as Black Girls Code, Mozilla's Webmaker Mentors, Urban TxT, a growing network of makerspaces in diverse communities, and the vibrant community of youngScratch programmers point to ways in which girls, and Black and Latino kids can be recruited into coding culture and social networks. The talent is there to be developed if we can diversify our imagination of who belongs to the coding inner circle, and how we might invite them to join.
Scientists say quantum computers could be built to operate up to a million times faster than conventional computers. But how do they work? And how close are we to putting them in homes and offices around the world?
Via Szabolcs Kósa
luiy's insight:
Between D-Wave's quasi-quantum device and various ion-trapping machines, there are plenty of exciting developments on the quantum computing front. Last week, a D-Wave machine consisting of 439 qubits processed an equation 3600 times faster than a conventional computer.
That said, the most complex prime factorization processed by Shor's Algorithm is still only... 21 (the answer's 3 and 7. Easy to come up with on paper, not so easy using atoms).
But quantum computing is about more than cracking codes. The D-Wave device Google announced last week will be used to improve machine learning. That means better robots and maybe dystopia, if you believe our editor Adam Penenberg. But it also means producing better models for understanding the world around us (and, since this is Google we're talking about, better models for organizing and searching through all that data).
"Machine learning is all about building better models of the world to make more accurate predictions," writes Google's Director of Engineering Hartmut Neven in a blog post. "If we want to cure diseases, we need better models of how they develop. If we want to create effective environmental policies, we need better models of what's happening to our climate. And if we want to build a more useful search engine, we need to better understand spoken questions and what's on the web so you get the best answer."

Can Patents Keep Up with Technology?: How do we recognize an invention when we see one? | #patentTrolls
How do we recognize an invention when we see one?
The U.S. patent system is a popular target. Recently we have heard that big portfolios of large companies pose a threat to small inventors, "patent trolls" who exist solely to sue real companies have hijacked the marketplace for new ideas and colossal lawsuits prove that America's patent system is broken.
The patent system is indeed in the midst of a challenge. Software technology gives us the GPS in our mobile devices, CT scans that provide early health diagnostics, and other wonders, but circumscribing such technologies in a patent is difficult. Advances in genetics and biotech are critically important to treating many diseases and require huge investments that rely on patent protection, but it is often hard to know where the rights of the inventors end and the public's begin. Should 3-D print files be eligible for patent prosecution? What breadth of protection should be available for the algorithms that extract knowledge from enormous aggregations of data? Each fundamental advance calls for reexamination and adaptation, which is why the patent system is, and must be, the subject of continuous improvement.
Via Wildcat2030
luiy's insight:
Beyond first-to-file, the AIA also responds to concerns about the quality of issued patents by providing cost-effective, fast ways to comment on pending patents and to challenge issued ones. These new opportunities apply to all patent applications and patents but are especially helpful in software, where historical references are difficult to find, and in biotech, where fine lines must be drawn between discoveries eligible for protection and ones free for all to use. Still, the AIA has only recently gone into effect, and the ramifications of its new processes and procedures are just beginning to be felt. As Scientific American's March 9, 1878, issue stated, "our Patent Office [is] a great National University, whose diplomas of merit for successful endeavor [are] infinitely more valuable than those of any college." This statement is still true.

When the Internet was first starting to catch on in the 1980s, I was invited, as a representative of a large business consulting organization, to a day-long seminar explaining what this new phenomenon was and how businesses should be responding to it. It was led by a man who now makes millions as a social media guru (I won't embarrass him by identifying him), but at the time he warned that the Internet had no future. The reason, he said, was that it was "anarchic" — there was no management, no control, no way of fixing things quickly if they got "out of hand". The solution, he said, was for business and government leaders to get together and create an orderly alternative — "Internet 2″ he called it — that would replace the existing Internet when it inevitably imploded. Of course, he couldn't have been more wrong.

AbstractSuccess in educational programmes often depends on learners being able to negotiate and manage a variety of digital literacy practices commensurate with the literacy demands of their course. This paper reports on preliminary findings of a multi-method PhD study which examines the digital literacy practices arising when an adult learner in a UK college completes writing assignments for her course. It explores whether she uses digital tools agentively and decisively in her personal life, in order to transform her classroom practice. Data show that mobilising personal digital literacy practices into classroom-based literacy events allows learners to successfully make the link between their own everyday digital literacy practices and the requirements of their course. It is argued that a "social practice" approach to digital literacies, along with actor-network theory sensibilities, allows researchers to observe the sensitivity of classroom-based digital literacy events to the layered multiplicity of their contexts.Keywordsdigital literacies, new literacy studies, multimodality, actor-network theory

Knowledge, Networks and Nations: Global scientific collaboration in the 21st century | #CI #SNA #openscience
luiy's insight:
Knowledge, Networks and Nations surveys the global scientific landscape in 2011, noting the shift to an increasingly multipolar world underpinned by the rise of new scientific powers such as China, India and Brazil; as well as the emergence of scientific nations in the Middle East, South-East Asia and North Africa. The scientific world is also becoming more interconnected, with international collaboration on the rise. Over a third of all articles published in international journals are internationally collaborative, up from a quarter 15 years ago.
Collaboration is increasing for a variety of reasons. Enabling factors such as advances in communication technology and cheaper travel have played a part, but the primary driver of most collaboration is individual scientists. In seeking to work with the best of their peers and to gain access to complementary resources, equipment and knowledge, researchers fundamentally enhance the quality and improve the efficiency of their work.
Today collaboration has never been more important. With human society facing a number of wide-ranging and interlinked 'global challenges' such as climate change, food security, energy security and infectious disease, international scientific collaboration is essential if we are to have any chance of addressing the causes, or dealing with the impacts, of these problems. Through a few selected case studies, we examine the achievements of some of the current efforts to tackle these challenges, discuss problems they have faced, and highlight important lessons their experience has to offer similar initiatives.
The report makes 5 major recommendations:Support for international science should be maintained and strengthenedInternationally collaborative science should be encouraged, supported and facilitatedNational and international strategies for science are required to address global challengesInternational capacity building is crucial to ensure that the impacts of scientific research are shared globallyBetter indicators are required in order to properly evaluate global science

Review of Social media as surveillance: Rethinking visibility in a converging world
luiy's insight:
Social media platforms, like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, have become "information warehouses", processing, storing, and analyzing a wide range of personal, communication and usage behavior data. Daniel Trottier's book Social media as surveillance is a great resource for readers to understand social media surveillance at the interpersonal or institutional levels, where "surveillance" has been conducted by individuals, companies, or the government agencies in the virtual world.
This book discusses risks posed by social media surveillance for information users far beyond privacy concerns, hence traditional "care and vigilance" is inefficient. Thus, attempts to manage individual or institutional online presence are significantly complicated by social media. For example, Facebook friends routinely expose each other, and such information transfers from one context to another, even though the "targets" say nothing about themselves.
Social media as surveillance presents empirical research with a range of personal and professional social media users (such as individuals, institutions, marketers, and police agencies). Using Facebook as a case study, Trottier describes rapidly growing multi–purpose social media monitoring practices. Such scrutiny activities augment one another and lead to a quick spread of online information (visibility), which is vital for new sociality and power relations.
Trottier's research collects data through detailed interviews with interested parties, such as students, university employees, businesses owners, and police. These interviewees not only reveal how social media is used as surveillance tools, but also discover what is happening and what people think might be happening now. The book gives an insight into both the positive and the negative sides of the social media surveillance issue, as well as some early warnings to future developments.
Trottier examines four different aspects of surveillance: interpersonal surveillance (through which people monitor each other); institutional surveillance (through which institutions,i.e., universities or employers, watch over their students or employees); market surveillance (through which businesses track their customers, potential customers, or even random Web surfers) and policing surveillance (through which authorities might spy on technically anything).

Many parents tend to dismiss the idea of sending their children to private school without exploring it in depth. We explore this and several more related subjects.
When it comes to choosing a private school, there are so many choices to consider that the project can be a huge challenge to most of us. We offer some help and advice to help you get started.
Sending your child to a foreign language school makes good sense when you have been posted to this country from abroad and in other circumstances as well.

Onjeong Vacations
Seoul, the capital of South Korea, is located about 200 miles (322 kilometers) northwest of Onjeong, while Busan is 45 miles (72 kilometers) to the northeast.
Well-seasoned travelers will enjoy leaving the tourist trail behind by heading to some of the other villages, towns and cities surrounding Onjeong. Sacheon and Jinhae are just two of the many other places worth visiting while you're in North Gyeongsang.
When it's time to spread your wings, why not visit the nearest regional area. Busan sits 45 miles (72 kilometers) away and is home to attractions including Busan Tower, Taejongdae Park and Gwangalli Beach. Make sure you don't return to Onjeong until you've investigated Busan's Haedong Yong-gungsa, Busan Asiad Main Stadium and Daeshin Citizen's Park.
An effective way to truly appreciate a place is by discovering its history. So be sure to visit the traditional villages while you are in the area. If you're in the hunt for things to do that won't wreak havoc on the budget, why not take a little tour of North Gyeongsang's many outdoor cultural attractions such as open-air museums, gardens and open-air exhibits.
When the temperatures climb, do what the locals do and head to the region's beautiful waterways for a morning of swimming or boating. For those who feel it's important to pick up knowledge as well as souvenirs on their travels, North Gyeongsang has plenty of specialist activities, including city walking tours.
Even the best vacation can't go on forever, so when it's time return home, head to the nearest major airport in Busan, 35 miles (56 kilometers) to the northeast.

Functionality such as AIS connectivity through Bluetooth, an extensive ship's library, enhanced route planning, user chart layers, docking mode, maneuvering predictor and a voice note and logbook recording feature are all included in the standard software. Charts formats that can be used are either the Transas TX-97 charts or the official HO ENC's. The Transas chart updating software, Chart Assistant is included as well in order to keep the chart databases complete and up to date.

DAV / Red Racks Thrift StoresRead MoreClothes and furniture find new life at Red Racks Thrift Stores. Through donations, the staffers at the store's 13 locations fill their racks and shelves with thousands of second-hand items for kids and adults, including name-brand garments from the likes of Tommy Hilfiger, Levi's, The Loft, and Donna Karan New York. They also stock furniture and other miscellaneous goods, such as books and home décor. And something odd happens when these items arrive at checkout—the register doesn't ring up any sales tax. That's because Red Racks is a nonprofit organization, and all proceeds go to benefit the Disabled American Veterans, an organization that has advocated on behalf of veterans for more than nine decades. Red Racks' altruistic mission has proved successful so far—the inventory of each store typically turns over every 3–4 weeks.1201 East 7th StreetJoplin, MO US

Their online catalog hosts a roster of rental equipment, from power drills for household projects to forklifts for hanging Do Not Disturb signs on asteroids. Customers can arrange for equipment to be delivered to their work site or drop by one of three locations—including a newly opened site in Springfield—to pick up gear.3500 E 7th StJoplin, MO US
Calypso Scuba and SwimRead MoreThe team helps students gain their underwater legs with certification-level scuba lessons, diving vacations, and plenty of rental gear.

These range from introductory swimming and snorkeling lessons to specialty courses in night diving, search-and-rescue diving, and diving while learning to play the guitar. Per the company's philosophy, every course emphasizes the importance of diving responsibly, so as to preserve besieged underwater ecosystems.1840 N Range Line Rd.Joplin, MO US

Skate Life: Tampa Pro through the eyes of an Am03:44
The truth? We were supposed to cover Ultra Music Festival in Miami, but they only granted us 3 passes, so the class had to split into 2 groups and I reeeally wanted to go to the Tampa Pro competition to see one of my girlfriends who had moved away so I proposed the non-Ultra group cover Tampa Pro as an alternative. Little did I know Miss Qin Chen is something of a pro skateboarder know it all and shy as she is she probably won't admit how bad ass it was that she was the only girl on the ramps during the competitions. Don't you just love it when life gives you lemons and you turn that sh*t into gold? We definitely learned a lot while producing this video, but hot damn did we have a good time getting it together. Shot with a Panasonic HMC.+ More details

Twitter-reliant search and advertising network Tweetup signed several noteworthy distribution aggreements which aim to drive additional exposure for users.
TweetUp opened registration for the bid-based real-time search marketplace back in April 2010, and in May the company launched search capabilities on several high-profile sites.
TweetUp's search algorithms, in combination with its upcoming bid-based real-time search marketplace, nicely satisfy the needs of both users and tweeters in a single search mechanism. While Tweetup relies in part on a variety of factors to determine relevance count on the bid amount as being the predominant factor as Tweetups founder Bill Gross, pioneered (if not outright invented) the paid search model at GoTo/Overture nearly one decade ago.
How this will all play out with Twitter's upcoming advertising platform and @EarlyBird specials is anyone's guess. We're betting Twitter is going to have something to say about it.

Wednesday, 03 Dec 2008 09:12 AM
MUMBAI, India – Police found explosives hidden in a bag in Mumbai's main train station Wednesday, which they said were left over from last week's attacks.
While searching 150 bags at the station, police found one that looked suspicious and called the bomb squad. They found two bombs of 4 kilograms (8.8 pounds) each inside and defused them, said Assistant Commissioner of Police Bapu Domre.
The news comes as Indian authorities face a growing wave of criticism about intelligence failures and bungled security that let 10 gunmen terrorize India's largest city for 60 hours, killing at least 171 people.
It was not immediately clear why the bombs hadn't been found earlier.
Authorities reopened Chhatrapati Shivaji train station and declared it safe Thursday morning, hours after the gunmen sprayed it with gunfire in one of their first attacks.

SALT LAKE CITY — Elizabeth Smart is engaged to marry.
A summer wedding is planned, said Chris Thomas of the Salt Lake public relations firm Intrepid Group. Thomas would neither identify Smart's fiancé nor confirm how the couple met. The pair became engaged this past weekend.
Sources, however, have identified him as Matthew Gilmour of Scotland.
Smart, 24, is "happy and excited for this next chapter in her life," Thomas said. "She has planned to be very public in her child advocacy work but wants to keep the details of her personal life private."
Elizabeth Smart's father, Ed Smart, said he and his wife, Lois, are "just very happy for Elizabeth. He seems like a fine young man."
Smart would not release additional details at the request of his daughter. "She feels he's the one so we are very happy for her," Ed Smart said Friday.
Smart rose to international prominence after she was kidnapped at knife point from her parents' home in June 2002 by Brian David Mitchell. Smart, then 14, was held by her captors for nine months, enduring repeated sexual abuse. Smart was rescued when she, Mitchell and Mitchell's wife, Wanda Barzee, were spotted in Sandy in March of 2003.
Smart testified against Mitchell, who was convicted of kidnapping and rape in U.S. District Court in 2010. He is serving a life sentence. Barzee is serving a 15-year sentence in federal prison for her role in the crimes.
Many people who watched Smart testify against Mitchell at trial and during sentencing commented on her poise and confidence on the witness stand.
Smart has said on a number of occasions that she has been guided by the advice of her mother, who told her the day after her rescue that Mitchell may have taken nine months of her life from her, but she must not allow him to take one more minute.
Smart has advised other victims "not to let it hold them back."
Since her rescue, Smart has served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in France, formed a foundation to advocate on behalf of children and has worked as commentator for ABC News.

Estelle Ship 370.
(photo credit:Screenshot)
A ship carrying pro-Palestinian activists looking to break the Israeli blockade on Gaza has "come under attack" after being approached by the navy, AFP quoted a spokeswoman of the Estelle ship as saying on Saturday."The Estelle is now under attack -- I have just had a message from them by phone," AFP quoted Victoria Strand, a Stockholm-based spokeswoman for the Ship to Gaza Sweden campaign as saying.Palestinian activists told CNN Israeli ships have surrounded the vessel. The IDF have yet to comment on the report.The report follows the failure of diplomatic efforts to stop the ship, after Israel's United Nations envoy Ron Prosor wrote UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon this week asking for international intervention to "stop the provocation" of a small ship sailing to Gaza.According to one official, the letter – which said the Vikings had a better moral compass than the passengers of The Estelle, expected to arrive near Gaza in the coming days – gave a publicity boost to the ship that is challenging the IDF's naval blockade of Gaza."One ship does not a flotilla make," said one official of the ship carrying what Prosor called "weekend revolutionaries" with "radical and extremist agendas."Israel's blockade policy remains intact, and the ship will be stopped, one official said.The ship, sailing under a Finnish flag, set sail in June and has stopped at numerous European ports trying to drum up support and publicity. The vessel, carrying over a dozen passengers, took on additional food and passengers off the coast of Crete earlier this week.Among the new passengers are five European parliamentarians: Ricardo Sixto Iglesias from Spain, Sven Britton from Sweden, Aksel Hagen from Norway, and Vangelis Diamandopoulos and Dimitris Kodelas from Greece.Herb Keinon contributed to this report.
