Covering the worlds of data security, privacy and hacker culture. full bio →
I'm a technology, privacy, and information security reporter and most recently the author of the book This Machine Kills Secrets, a chronicle of the history and future of information leaks, from the Pentagon Papers to WikiLeaks and beyond. I've covered the hacker beat for Forbes since 2007, with frequent detours into digital miscellania like switches, servers, supercomputers, search, e-books, online censorship, robots, and China. My favorite stories are the ones where non-fiction resembles science fiction. My favorite sources usually have the word "research" in their titles. Since I joined Forbes, this job has taken me from an autonomous car race in the California desert all the way to Beijing, where I wrote the first English-language cover story on the Chinese search billionaire Robin Li for Forbes Asia. Black hats, white hats, cyborgs, cyberspies, idiot savants and even CEOs are welcome to email me at agreenberg (at) forbes.com. My PGP public key can be found here.Contact Andy Greenberg
Who takes responsibility for all the cancers resulting from the repeat exposure to this radiation, especially the operators who will eventually contract the testicular cancer which is most common with this type of radiation.
Not only is this Big Brother, it violates decency laws, as a naked scan can be made of you your wife and kids.
Furthermore it is a superpowerful x-ray, which has been shown to cause cancer.
Resist Big Brother!
First, the body scan machines used by the TSA do keep a permanent record of all scans performed. So the claim that the machines do not keep them is false.
Second, has any of these "einsteins" given any consideration to the effects x-rays have on developing fetuses. Where are the warnings at airports to women of childbearing age? Let alone, where are the warnings to women of childbearing age who are in public places that they are being x-rayed?
While we may not have an expectation of privacy in public places, we do have an expectation of privacy under our clothing.
THAT is the lamest reply, response, and rational…So much deception , intentional or not being spewed in todays world. THAT is like the manufacturers of Twinkies , stating that they are offering a nutritional health food, the "TWINKIE"…AND since they say its good for you, and will not harm you much, it is to be accepted, as HEALTH food.
THREE Three Skyscrapers came down at near free fall, as if nothing were under them, on September 11, 2001….THREE.
While the vice president of marketing can take comfort in facts and specifications he barely understands, what qualification does the ANSI have to decide what is harmful and what is not?
Furthermore, even if it isn't "that" harmful, does it make it right to use it? What authority does AS&E (or any government) have to make decisions to radiate and scan others knowingly or unknowingly? They certainly don't have my permission.
But what do they say about the cumulative effect? I remember Steven Pinker (the psychologist) saying that people who do more flying are at a slightly elevated risk of cancer.
Exposing people to x-rays at a low level might still be ethically problematic, unless there is really a big public benefit from these scans.
Also, are there cases in which one could get a big dose of x-rays? What if I get hit by the beam before it scatters?
Fine, let the company publish the X-ray flux from these machines so that independent experts can evaluate safety.
Also, this answer begs the question– E.g., does the marketing VP mean backscattered X-rays which have passed twice thru car sheet metal, primary X-rays filtered thru car sheet metal once, or getting full-on caught in the unfiltered beam. These are going to differ by orders of magnitude.
Also, radiation exposure to the public almost certainly depends on the skill of the operator and their willingness to abide by rules and procedures unmonitored. Good luck with that..
I am not a writer on security issues; I am an expert in Nondestructive Evaluations though. The thing to remember about x-rays is that their effect is cumulative. The dose received at one source is added to the source received at the next source. So you get a dose when you pass the bag scanner, you get another dose at the body scanner, you get dosed again while flying and you get dosed again when you walk past the security check point on the way out. If you fly again, repeat the whole procedure. Nobody is discussing the cumulative dose people are receiving with all of these different sources. Now you'll get random doses from vans driving around? By the way the TSA people are getting really heavily dosed. I've watched them stick their arms in the bag scanners and they stand by these machines all day. I haven't heard of any statistical testing done on TSA people and Melanoma but I'm willing to bet their rates are very high.
I would appreciate your also responding to the question about the dose of x-rays that one receives from the airport x-ray machines. I agree with Patsnyc that x-rays are a definite concern for women (and should be for men, as well).
What is the one-time dose? What are the cumulative effects for airline commuters? Even the dentist's office will give a patient an x-ray shield. What are the public supposed to do to protect themselves from radiation?
Thank you for checking this out.
Of course these "einsteins" [sic] have given consideration to the effects of the x-rays. It's even mentioned in the video. Have you given any time to reading about the radiation equivalent of a backscatter scan? Well now you can, if you're not too busy wondering out loud about things you can just look up.
My question is how many of these types of x-rays could one person encounter in a day before it IS harmful to their health? If you travel for a living, and fly frequently (almost daily) then you are also scanned by this traveling device, how much is healthy? And shouldn't passengers and passers by be warned? What about the 4th amendment rights? Just curious.
The part about radiation hazard is a lot of do do. I am an engineer and have studied atomic physics and radiation safety. First any x-ray machine which can penetrate steel has to be much higher in intensity than that used to penetrate clothing. So comparing a machine designed to penetrate clothing and one designed to penetrate steel is a horse of a different color. Such machines would have to have drastically different powers. Iron (the primary element in steel has an a mass number of 26. The human bone has a large calcium component in its composition. The mass number of calcium is 20. While shielding is a complicated subject, the shielding effect of an element is proportional to the 4th or 5th power of the mass number. What this means is the x-ray machine must have a beam that hass 2.9 to 3.7 times as much power to pass through the same thickness of steel as that of bone. Since the steel in a car or truck shell is much thinner than a thick human bone the total exposure is less than a standard medical x-ray (which varies wildly dependent on the type of exam.) However, the scatter radiation must penetrate in two directions (forward and backward), whereas with a medical exam with a film behind the subject only one penetration is necessary and since much energy is lost in the scattering process it is hard to know exactly what the dose exposure would be. But I would venture to guess the dosage to an occupant in the car would be at least comparable to a medical x-ray. If the equipment were operated in a continuous fluoroscope type manner the dosage would be much higher. These are laws of physics and cannot be wished away by technology. The company making this equipment should publish publicly and openly the actual dose range in scientific units to be expected from the equipment, rather than indulge in meaningless propaganda and hype about safety.
People have every right to maintain concern over the health issues despite ANSI accreditation. Clearly the device is of a new standard both in engineering and method of application. This can only demand a new revision of the current guidelines.
Traditional x-ray scanning methods have until now been stationary, with selective scanning of individual items and adequate amounts of shielding around the exposed area. Even large shipping-container scanners are expected to be used in a non-public, industrial area, preferrably one sectioned off to minimize exposure to onsite personnel.
The ZB Vans are clearly mobile, with a specific application to be used in public area's with no prior warning or area access restrictions.
A simple 'average dosage' is designed for a one-off scan, like if you were sitting in a stationary car and the truck did a scanning-pass of your car. Any humans in a public place will be expected to be moving about, and thus public should be demanding a thorough report on the specifications of the scattered x-ray beam in regards to prolonged exposure.
Of particular concern is that the trucks needs to operate at near walking pace. An unknowing citizen could be walking down the sidewalk and receive a prolonged exposure by walking alongside the slow moving truck.
There is also a severe lack of concern for information regarding specifics of the nuclear source for the x-ray machine. If this van were to be involved in a vehicular crash, could the radioactive source be exposed and become a major hazard?
Could the van become the target of terrorist attacks, where a mere explosive may render the van to become the radioactive part of a 'dirty bomb' in public streets.
It is likely that the scanning range of the x-ray has been limited, so as to fall under ANSI safe-dosage guidelines. Meaning x-ray imaging of inside buildings from street fronts would not be possible. X-ray scanning is limited to range of effect and density of shielding materials. So the thick walls of brick houses may block imaging of the interior.
With a scanning truck needing to move as slowly as they do, area-sweeps to search for missing persons would seem like a very costly affair for such a high degree of error. Chances are they would still require a total lockdown of an area, which would be no easier with trucks than it is currently with manual methods of area search.
In addition to the above-mentioned, there is a massive risk to sensitive electronics. It is already well-known that airport x-rays can interfere with laptops, smartphones and other similar devices, particularly when those devices are turned on at the time of exposure.
Will we be seeing certain brands of car or other electronically-run device rendered inoperable after a scanning run?
What lengths have AS&E gone towards adequate shielding of the radioactive source, both in general operation and in cases of likely accident? And what lengths of ongoing maintenance are proposed to ensure the long-term safety of the devices?
Is it possible to receive prolonged exposure if moving alongside the van whilst it is in operation?
Will the interactions of the scattered x-rays with certain metals cause electromagnetic interference and disrupt wireless networks?
These are the sort of questions the public should be demanding answers for. Privacy will always be a concern, such as will the boot of my car be ripped upon because a grocery item or bag of fertilizer came up with the same imaging signature that a suspected explosive may have. But there are also some major, major public safety implications in the event of unforseen circumstances. Such as the intentional targeting of the vans in attacks, or the highly likely chance of a collision on the road.
I am afraid you do not know very much about x-rays. As I explained in my previous post you cannot compare a back scatter machine designed to penetrate a layer of clothing to one designed to penetrate steel. The x-ray energy necessary to penetrate steel is many orders of magnitudes higher. The Wikipedia article you sited here refers to machines designed to penetrate clothing, in which the machine can be of very low intensity. Not so for steel. So the article you sited here has no applicability in this case.
I think this is an overabundance of fairness on your part. Save the occasional felon being transported by a bailiff, people on airplanes receive that dose voluntarily. Not so for public scanning machines, and in Mr. Reiss wildest fantasy we'd all be subjected to these scans hundreds of times a day as we drive about town etc.
These are not gamma machines. They do not have any radioactive sources and cannot be "manufactured" into a dirty bomb.
I would be shocked if being used now by government without legal consent in U.S. Perhaps author could give one example of van being used internally in the U.S.
even if its a small does who has the right? How do they control dosage? Is the operator medically trained? What if someone has a sensitivity to this?
The fact that companies vice president says this does not make it believable. What would the vice president say?
Come on. Wake up people. This is a violation of our rights and "IS" a potential health hazard. When you get a xray at the dentist they put protection over your chest.
How's the Kool-Aid, Mr. Greenberg? You actually offered the assurances of "vice president of marketing Joe Reiss" as a response to your readers' concerns about the safety of a product made by THE EMPLOYER OF JOE REISS!!?? Are you smoking three packs of Marlboro's since Phillip Morris says it's okay? (PM also reports its ok for pregnant women to smoke because: "Some women want smaller babies": http://tinyurl.com/tinyBABYgood).
I think you owe us a complete and thorough report from credible sources on the health concerns raised by this new tool being used by corpo-statists….assuming anyone has actually done a credible study.
Andy, although that is technically correct, it misses an important point. The x-ray dosage you receive while travelling in an airplane is distributed throughout your entire body. The backscatter x-rays are concentrated in the outer layers of your skin and the effective dosage to that area is substantially higher. Where are the published, peer-reviewed studies confirming these machines are safe? Even if they honestly believe their machines are safe, without independent, replicated stuides we have no way to be sure.
Yes ,but WE ARE NOT GETTING MEDICAL XRAYS 3X a day. And Yes, I was shouting. That is what one does when one has heard one idiot statement too many on a given subject
I am so sick of the BS that the amount is smaller than a pickle. We go to the doctor and get medical xrays every few years.
This is an OUTRAGE and these machines need to be outlawed for use by everyone..including the government
Just because we can invent something does not mean that we should, or that it should be legal to own or to use
Here's a better expert than the company's vice president!
Molecular biologist Jason Bell on the TSA's Claims Regarding the Safety of Backscatter Body Scanners
November 28, 2010
According to the TSA safety documents, AIT uses an 50 keV source that emits a broad spectra (see adjacent graph from here). Essentially, this means that the X-ray source used in the Rapiscan system is the same as those used for mammograms and some dental X-rays, and uses BOTH 'soft' and 'hard' X-rays. Its very disturbing that the TSA has been misleading on this point. Here is the real catch: the softer the X-ray, the more its absorbed by the body, and the higher the biologically relevant dose! This means, that this radiation is potentially worse than an a higher energy medical chest X-ray.
Who cares about privacy?? The last time I checked, X ray technicians leave the vicinity and/or cover up with lead vests. Do we just get zapped walking down the street? Terrorists will figure out a way to camouflage their devices to counteract the vans. I guess I'm in the wrong business. Should have become an oncologist.
John V. Karavitis Yes, all well and good, but I'm not in the mood to be walking about town, minding my own business, when along comes an unmarked van, blasting me with low-level x-rays. I don't give a damn how infrequent/rare the exposure might be. When you send out ANYTHING that makes unwanted or harmful contact with my body, OR an immediate extension of it, then you have committed a battery. This isn't funny. All in the name of Homeland Security that can't even control the flow of illegal aliens across our southern border. Why not see if you can fix THAT problem first, before you start blasting our genitalia with low-level x-rays. John V. Karavitis
Body Scanners on any level is so dangerous not just legally but for privacy issues. I do not want radiation of any sort near me whatsoever! This should not be allowed not in public nor at a airport. As it is at my gym I refused to use the hand recongition scan so they had to give me a card to sign in. We are getting far too carried away with technology and we are now becoming prisoners in our own country.
Sorry to tell you that you cannot avoid radiation. If you go outside you get radiation from the sun, if you walk on the ground or work in a concrete buiilding you get radiation from the material in the ground. If you eat food such as bananas you get radiation. If you are married (or single but sleeping with someone), you get 2 millirem of radiation a year more than someone who sleeps by himself. you cannot avoid radiation, need to learn how to safely work around it.
The "Gen2″ X-ray machine not only takes photos of your body, then automatically saves them to the machine's hard drive, but the X-ray camera also projects live feed video to the security men and women in the control room.
The U.S. Marshals Service admitted this week that tens of thousands of images were saved and recorded with a millimeter wave system on one of the X-ray machines in Orlando, Florida. One Gen-2 scanner tested at a Washington DC courthouse was returned to the manufacturer containing over 40,000 pictures on its harddrive. http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/jan2007/tc20070102_030201.htm
TSA and Homeland Security stated that these photographs are used for "training, testing and evaluation purposes".
While the xrays are claimed to be within "standards" and guidlines, do those standards specifically address the systems effects on pregnant women; specifically fetal development?

Does it not strike anyone as odd that in the video, time stamp 1:00-1:06, the commentator states that the "… device can detect substances that contain low atomic number elements, such as Carbon, Hydrogen and Nitrogen…"
Don't those 3 pretty much make up most of what is around us?
He was trying to distingush between the backscatter technique which uses low radiation and looks at low atomic number elements, vs. the transmission x-rays used at doctors office or airport baggage screening, which looks at high atomic numbers and looks mainly for metal such as guns, wires, fuses. ASE vans usually have both techniques at the seaports to look for drugs and explosives (backscatter) and transmission looking for guns, whats in metal drums, etc.
There is no such thing as "backscatter technique which uses low radiation looking at atomic number elements." X-rays to penetrate steel of a certain thickness must have the required energy. Study atomic physics before making such an idiotic statement.
FYI, from how stuff works
According to the Health Physics Society (HPS), a person undergoing a backscatter scan receives approximately 0.005 millirems (mrem, a unit of absorbed radiation). American Science and Engineering, Inc., actually puts that number slightly higher, in the area of .009 mrem. According to U.S. regulatory agencies, 1 mrem per year is a negligible dose of radiation, and 25 mrem per year from a single source is the upper limit of safe radiation exposure. Using the HPS numbers, it would take 200 backscatter scans in a year to reach a negligible dose — 1 mrem — of radiation. You receive 1 mrem from three hours on an airplane, from two days in Denver or from three days in Atlanta. And it would take 5,000 scans in a year to reach the upper limit of safety. A traveler would have to get 100 backscatter scans per week, every week, for a year, in order to be in real danger from the radiation. Few frequent flyers fly that frequently.
For more information on backscatter technology, airport security and related topics, check out the following links:
•How Airport Security Works
•How Liquid Explosives Work
•How Metal Detectors Work
Please note, you receive about 360 millirem (360,000 microRem) of radiation a year just by living. Sugguest you look up facts before commenting.
Beam energy (the total amount of radiation ) and energy of individual x-ray photons are two different things.
These are "soft" x-rays, about 28 KV. This means that they penetrate matter very poorly. BTW, energy absorbtion here is exponential with thickness. So the way to get enough radiation for imaging thru (say) a metal car door is to increase the beam energy. And then the back-scattered energy needs to penetrate back thru the car door again. Plus atmospheric absrobtion, which can be substantial.
All of which makes me wonder just how powerful an x-ray beam comes out of this scanner in the first place. We need numbers.
I can see the convoys moving through the streets now. The ZBV followed by the APC (armored personnel carrier) followed by the MCV (mobile cremation van). Wonder which US cities will get them first.
Is this not boiling frog syndrome? It's the gradual erosion of the rights of law-abiding citizens.
Considered in isolation, AS&E's technology may not be cause for alarm, but considered alongside dozens of other privacy-eroding technologies it's another step-backward for civilized society.
We're creating a society of fear in which everyone is presumed guilty (scan them all) until proven innocent (your scan turned up negative). Is that the sort of society you wish to live in?
" We're creating a society of fear in which everyone is presumed guilty (scan them all) until proven innocent (your scan turned up negative). Is that the sort of society you wish to live in? "
It is already happening, see to the migration law. Even here in Belgium I see through the rules and it is becoming the same story: You are illegal or proven not be illegal. You miss one not needed paper aside your real passport : You are illegal.
That is how we treating people … And how we pre-judging about some race in another country.
A society of all guilty is what they want to create.You cannot scare an innocent, make him guilty first-

These cute little cornucopias made out of a sugar cone are really fun to make. They are the perfect, fun family project, where kids can even help shape and fill them! You can use them for gift giving, or even as a festive name plate around your Thanksgiving dinner table!
The cornucopia is also know as "the horn of plenty", a large horn overflowing with the fruits of our labor, such as flowers, nuts, and other edibles... like, CANDY! You can stuff your cone-ucopias with rice crispy treats, trail mix, nuts, dried fruit, candy corn, or any treat you like. I used "Runts" candy to look like fruit, for a more authentic look. You can package them up in clear plastic baggies tied with ribbon and a custom tag for gift giving, or create name tags to tie around each cone-ucopia, and use them as a Thanksgiving dinner plate treat for guest to find their seat and enjoy!
You will need
- sugar cones
- filling of your choice (candy, nuts, etc.)
- microwave or stove top vegetable steamer
- colored pencil, paper & ribbon for name tags or Happy Thanksgiving greetings (optional)
Microwave method: Dip the tip of the sugar cone in water. Lay on a damp paper towel in the microwave and fold the edge of the paper towel over so it covers about an inch of the tip of the cone. Microwave on HIGH in 5 second intervals for 10-20 seconds, depending on the wattage of your microwave, until the tip start to get soft and bendable (you may have to do this on 50% power if your microwave has a higher wattage, so the cones don't burn). Remove cone from microwave once pliable. Bend the tip of the cone up with your fingers, forming a cornucopia shape. (Cone will be hot, so be careful not to burn your self!). Fill with treats of your choice.
Stove top method: Place up to 4 cones, points pointing upward, on the top pot of a veggie steamer. Fill the bottom pot with 1" of water. On medium heat, with the lid OFF, steam the cones for a few seconds until soft and pliable, but be careful not to steam them too long or they will unravel completely. Remove from pot and bend the tip of the cones up with your hands, creating a cornucopia shape. (Cone will be hot, so be careful not to burn your self!)

Faulty airbag deployment warrants Nissan recall of almost a million vehicles
Nissan Motor Co, Japan's second largest automaker has announced that the company will be recalling 989,701 vehicles over a software glitch due to which airbags fail to deactivate. This recall also includes the new Altima sedan in North America.
As per inputs received from Nissan Motors and filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the software on board these vehicles could fail to detect a passenger in the seat and classify it as empty. This will in turn lead to failure of an airbag being deployed in the event of a crash which would result in risk of injury to the passenger. The recall will include 2014 Infiniti Q50 sedan and the QX60 crossover besides 2013-14 Pathfinder SUV, Leaf electric car and Sentra compact.
While filing papers with regard to this recall with NHTSA, Nissan stated that there were two field incidents where passenger bag did not deploy and the passenger airbag status light failed to illuminate. Nissan also said that this problem could have occurred due to various factors which include high engine vibration at idle when the seat was empty and then occupied or it could have taken place due to unusual occupant seating postures. These two instances could result in the system failing to recognize an occupied front passenger seat as being occupied.
Nissan dealers will be contacting owners asking them to bring in their vehicles for update of occupant classification system with the recall slated to commence in mid April.

LAS CRUCES, N.M.—Head track and field coach Orin Richburg announced Thursday the signing of sisters Cristina and Cassandra Amberg to the Aggies' squad for next season.
Both Cristina and Cassandra attended Eldorado High School in Albuquerque, N.M., where they focused on cross country and distance running in their careers.
Cristina Amberg was part of the state championship runner-up cross country team in 2013. She was an individual state champion in the three-mile run, however, and finished with a time of 18:46.45.
Cristina is a former 800-meter champion and posted her fastest time at 2:18.00. She was the Great Southwest runner-up, she holds the Cross Country Metro course record and was named Academic All-District.
Cassandra Amberg was also a member of the 2013 squad that finished as runner-ups to the state championship. She finished second only to her sister individually in the cross country state championship with a time of 19:08.20.
In 2013, Cassandra was the state runner-up in the 800-meter run with a time of 2:19.65, which was her fastest finish in the race in her career. She was also a member of the 1600-meter medley relay team that won a state championship and was named Academic All-State.
Cristina and Cassandra were also part of the 2012 cross country team that won the state championship.
"Being able to sign both Cristina and Cassandra was a big deal," assistant coach Christopher Huff said. "They were one-and-two in the state in cross country last season so this was great for us. Being able to sign student-athletes from New Mexico is a great thing for us and it's a great thing for NM State and for fans here to be able to see local athletes competing for our university."

About Pathology
Pathology is the science of disease, and research in pathology is focused on understanding the cellular and molecular changes that cause disease, generating knowledge that is essential in the development of new methods for prevention and treatment. Pathology is a multidisciplinary science, and laboratory techniques overlap those used in all current fields of biomedical investigation. We offer unique opportunities for graduate students to conduct fundamental biomedical research that is directly linked to patient care, working with teams of highly experienced investigators and clinicians. Our laboratories are located on the main campus and throughout the McGill network of hospitals and research institutes. Our investigators collaborate with basic scientists from a variety of other departments, and undertake collaborative studies with colleagues in academic institutions around the world. Graduate students take part in joint clinical-experimental presentations involving our 48 faculty members, gaining broad exposure to current issues in diagnosis and treatment of disease. This opportunity to combine basic research and potential applications offers very exciting possibilities for a highly rewarding career.
The Pathology Department offers research training in a wide variety of areas such as immunology and transplantation, neoplasia, ophthalmic pathology, cell biology, pulmonary vascular and airways disease, pulmonary edema, neurodegenerative disorders, and smooth muscle pathophysiology.
Modern techniques and equipment include light, fluorescence and electron microscopy (both transmission and scanning), laser capture, DNA analysis, cell culture, advanced immunological, pharmacological, biochemical, and physiological techniques, as well as morphometry and computer-aided analysis.
|Master of Science (M.Sc.); Pathology (Thesis) (45 credits)
|Graduates can directly enter rewarding careers in research, or opt to continue with their studies and obtain a Ph.D. Some combine their research training with subsequent training in medicine, law, or business administration.
|Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.); Pathology
|Our graduates enter successful careers in industry, academia, government/international agencies, or clinical medicine, sometimes combining two of these options. They leave McGill with experience in leadership and communication skills in addition to being highly trained in biomedical research, and their career choices include a wide range of administrative and research positions around the world.

The mother of Barrett Brown, a jailed journalist and activist who faces multiple charges, was sentenced to six months of probation and fined $1,000 today by a judge in Dallas.
The Associated Press reported that Karen Lancaster McCutchin "apologized Friday in Dallas federal court for hiding the laptops from agents during a March raid at their home. Her son faces three separate federal indictments and has gotten widespread attention among groups who believe he's being unfairly prosecuted."
The federal judge hearing her case declined to give her jail time. And, the following exchange took place in court:
"My better judgment was clouded by my maternal instinct," McCutchin said.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Paul Stickney said McCutchin's crime "does not warrant any jail sentence at all."
"I feel for you, as a parent," Stickney told McCutchin, adding: "I know you did the best you could."
While Brown's mother will not serve time in prison, Free Barrett Brown, a group raising awareness about Brown's case, reacted to the news.
"There's no better symbol of the unjust persecution of Barrett Brown, than the misguided and needless case against his own mother," the group declared in a statement. "When Brown made a fateful decision to spend the night away from his apartment on March 5, 2012, he could not have known that he'd be placing his loved ones at significant legal risk."
"As the result of an FBI raid the next day, his mom faced a charge of obstructing the execution of a search warrant. Perhaps under pressure and with few other options, she later pleaded guilty, and admitted to attempting to conceal two laptop computers."
"There can be no real justice as the FBI and [Justice Department] use family members to intimidate, harass and pressure others," the group further declared.
Brown faces multiple charges including one count of internet threats, one count of conspiracy to make publicly available restricted personal information of an employee of the United States, one count of retaliation against a federal law enforcement officer, one count of traffic in stolen authentication features, one count of access device fraud, ten counts of aiding and abetting identity theft, one count of concealment of evidence and one count of corruptly concealing evidence. Altogether, Brown could be sentenced to up to 105 years in jail if convicted of all the above offenses.
The offenses stem from conduct that Brown allegedly engaged in after linking to client list in a Stratfor email.
Brown's case has attracted attention because, at issue, is the right to link. Brown is accused of sharing a link to private data, which was contained in a Stratfor email.
The First Amendment is also implicated as well. Brown is charged with concealing information related to journalistic sources and his own work products. And it also appears the government was not pleased that the focus of his work was the operations of private security and intelligence companies so they chose to target him with this prosecution.
Earlier in September, a district court judge in Dallas issued a gag order prohibiting lawyers for Barrett Brown from discussing the case with media.
The gag order on Brown and his defense team constituted a prior restraint on speech to impede the ability of members of the press to do their jobs and report on what is happening with the case. But, for the government, it restored a level of secrecy to the process that the government could rely upon to punish Brown for his alleged conduct to the maximum extent possible. No longer would they have to struggle with the background noise of supporters referencing details shared by the defense in order to build opposition to the government's legal maneuverings.
Since the gag order, Brown's case has received increased attention. David Carr of The New York Times wrote that Brown's past history with Anonymous and other online groups, which view "sowing mayhem as very much a part of their work," makes his "version of journalism" harder to "pin down" and defend. Yet, he noted that Brown is not accused of stealing any data from Stratfor or any other organization or government institution. He is accused of linking to something that was part of a "trove of documents."
Journalists from other news organizations link to stolen information frequently. Just last week, The New York Times, The Guardian and ProPublica collaborated on a significant article about the National Security Agency's effort to defeat encryption technologies. The article was based on, and linked to, documents that were stolen by Edward J. Snowden, a private contractor working for the government who this summer leaked millions of pages of documents to the reporter Glenn Greenwald and The Guardian along with Barton Gellman of The Washington Post.
By trying to criminalize linking, the federal authorities in the Northern District of Texas — Mr. Brown lives in Dallas — are suggesting that to share information online is the same as possessing it or even stealing it. In the news release announcing the indictment, the United States attorney's office explained, "By transferring and posting the hyperlink, Brown caused the data to be made available to other persons online, without the knowledge and authorization of Stratfor and the card holders."
Josh Stearns of the media reform group, Free Press, suggested after Carr's op-ed the case was important because, "Links are the connective tissue of the Internet. They enable us to share news, discover new information, dig deeper into issues and give credit to sources. The government's effort to criminalize linking is akin to rewiring how the Internet works. It will have a chilling effect on how journalists report on sensitive government matters."
Brown's trial on the first set of charges is currently scheduled for April 28, 2014. In the months to come, expect his case to remain a focus of press freedom groups concerned about the government's prosecution.

Is my CPU too little for GTX460?
So, looking around the forums & the net; I get the impression that maybe my CPU is holding back my 460. I "upgraded" from a GTX 260 216 and without changing the settings in games (like all medium for BFBC2), it seems to be performing about the same if not actually a little worse.
My specs -
E8300 2.5GHZ stock
8800GT ( for physx)
300Gb Velociraptor
850w Corsair PWR
W7 64bit
Everything is running stock and when I had the same setup above with the GTX260 & an E8400 dual core, games -specifically BFBC2, just seem to run smoother.
I thought that getting the E8300 quad and the GTX460 would be a good temporary upgrade until I build a new system next spring, but now I'm thinking I should have just stuck with the E8400/GTX260.
Does anyone think it would it be worth the trouble to get a Q9650 until i build a newer system next year?
*Note, overclocking this setup doesn't work -apparently these GSKILL memory sticks don't like to run anything over DDR2 800;other than that they are stable.
Re: Is my CPU too little for GTX460?
You could likely run that at 3.6Ghz or higher, in which case I think it'd work okay with a GTX460. Might choke the GPU a bit... but not by a massive amount. :)
If you cannot or absolutely will not oc the CPU... then yeah, look to upgrade. :)
Re: Is my CPU too little for GTX460?
Thanks for taking a look Redeemed, and I miss spoke earlier on my specs -I went from an E8400 to a Q8300.
I tried overclocking before on this board, but I don't know if it's the memory or the board, but the best i could get was 2.8 before it would start crashing even in windows.
Ah well, I'll just wait to next spring when I'll either go with a bulldozer or sandy bridge setup.
Re: Is my CPU too little for GTX460?
I think your processor may be the culrpit. A small overclock to 3Ghz would be enough to alleviate that bottleneck.
Re: Is my CPU too little for GTX460?
Can't you set the memory to run at a async like 5:4 2:6 and run the cpu higher to get at least 3gig out of it ,I am sure you will need to increase the voltage of the CPU to get it higher ,but I seen then run as high as 3.5gigs.That sure would help a GTX 460 to run better.
Re: Is my CPU too little for GTX460?
You know Madpistol that's makes sense; I figured at the time however that being a quad would negate that speed difference, but it didn't.
I put my E8400 back in, and even at stock 3GHZ I went from an average of 35fps to 42 fps with the same settings. Roughly a 20% improvement. I seriously would not have thought that 500mhz and 2MB's more of l2 cache would make that big of a difference, but -live and learn.
Now I'm thinking that a nice i7-860 or maybe an i5-760 would be a nice bump; I'm trying to wait till next spring, but the tech bug is biting pretty hard :D
Re: Is my CPU too little for GTX460?
I got a Q8300 as well with the intent of oc to 3.0 ghz but with my mobo its practically impossible. If I oc by 1mhz it won't post. Have to do all kinds of tweaks to get it to boot at 2.75ghz. BFBC2 loves quads and high clocks.

Message from the Dean - October 2010
Richard Light, an education professor at Harvard, turns a familiar phrase about college on its head. We often hear, "Let's admit the best and brightest and get out of the way." He disagrees. In his book, "Making the Most of College: Students Speak Their Minds," Light says that faculty members, staff and administrators should get in students' ways. He means not just that we need to teach students in the classroom. He means also that each student needs good advice on how to connect classroom learning with emerging interests, thus encouraging an intertwining of the two and making the educational experience much stronger and more satisfying. One of the main ways in which this connection arises is through activities students undertake outside the classroom. These activities could involve music, theatre, art, public service, a student-run newspaper or journal, volunteer groups, religious organizations, athletics, internships, employment, or research. Increasing the quantity of such activities for a student isn't the right target; indeed, too many such involvements can distract from a satisfying academic career. Rather, it is the ability of the activity to animate a student's formal learning which, in turn, may lead to a more successful pursuit of the activity itself, that seems to be what students should pursue. Why this connection should be so helpful might not be clear from this discussion. So here is a case of a UVM student that illustrates what Light meant.
When this Honors College student (who recently graduated) arrived on campus four years ago she wanted preparation to become a doctor, as many students do. Just like those students she really couldn't say why she wanted to pursue medicine with much precision, though she did utter the common phrase about wanting to help others. She was doing well in her classes but didn't feel particularly motivated by her coursework. Her goal simply seemed to be to get outstanding grades (so as to get into medical school). We advised her to consider working with a professor who runs a malaria research lab. This made sense to her. If she was going to pursue medicine, she might as well learn what it was like to work in a life sciences lab. At first, her work in the lab involved getting used to its protocols and procedures, often with the assistance of the graduate students who also were part of the malaria research team. But soon enough, she became absorbed by the work. As her interest in parasitology grew, her academic plans changed and came into sharper focus. Rather than pursuing a major in Biology, she decided it would be better to be a Mathematics major and a Biology minor, a combination that was encouraged by her membership in UVM's faculty-led Math-Bio Program, which is funded by the National Science Foundation. On the suggestion of the professor who was her research mentor, she applied for and was accepted as a summer research fellow at another university's lab, where she worked under the supervision of one of the most eminent researchers in malaria studies. She also applied for and won funding from UVM for her research pursuits. As her work became more sophisticated she broke new ground and her findings were published in two major journals. This student now knew not only that she wanted to pursue medicine but also knew why. In fact, she modified her plans to study medicine by opting to pursue M.D. and Ph.D. degrees simultaneously. In her senior year she was offered admission at half a dozen M.D./Ph.D. programs, and chose among them the one at the University of Pennsylvania.
In this student's case, an activity outside the classroom - mentored undergraduate research - was central to reinforcing her decision to pursue medicine. It also allowed her to change her academic focus and gave meaning to her coursework. This is exactly what Richard Light meant when he noticed that students' academic careers went better when they connected their activities and their coursework. Not every student finds such a strong connection between these two pursuits, but many do, and many more would benefit from advice that allowed them to see such connections. Nor is this the only reason to pursue these activities: it is often enough to do them because they are fun or pay money, or allow students to learn skills or exercise their talents, or because they help those in need. But in order for us to make a student's academic career more successful and rewarding, the link between activities and learning is one that we should advise students to forge. That the activities are fun and rewarding makes this advice that much easier to give.
The student I wrote about could have had an academic career that simply resulted in good grades. But her interests outside the classroom breathed life into her academic interests and allowed them to develop in a particularly successful and satisfying way. I'm happy her advisors and mentors got in her way.

I was born in 1964 at Fort Benning Army Base in Columbus, Georgia to Cuban parents. While growing up I was always involved in creative programs in school. Upon graduating from High School I went on to receive my Associate in Arts Degree in Communication Design in South Florida. For 10 years I dedicated myself to the world of advertising. As an Art Director I always used my creativity to influence my client's perspective.A turn of events changed my path. Simply stated, I did not choose Fine Art...Fine Art chose me. Now I realize this is where I am called to be.

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
SUWANEE -- Mark Okamoto is no stranger to developing a pharmacy program.
Before he became the founding dean and chief academic officer of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine's School of Pharmacy at the Georgia campus in February, Okamoto served as a tenured professor and founding chairman of pharmacy practice at the University of Hawaii at Hilo College of Pharmacy.
Okamoto, who has a bachelor's of science in biology for the University of California, Los Angeles and a doctorate of pharmacy degree from the University of Southern California, wasn't looking to start a pharmacy school when he flew to Suwanee to learn about the job. He said the fact that the campus had an established School of Osteopathic Medicine was a hook that led him to accept the job.
"The benefit of being in a new school is that I get to set up the system the way I would like it to be run," Okamoto said.
Okamoto said he started working in academia after working as a researcher. After receiving his Pharm.D., he completed a one-year residency in general medicine at the Los Angeles County/USC Medical Center. He served the next three years in two post-doctoral fellowship programs in pharmacokinetics and pharmacoeconomics of infectious diseases at the same institution.
After he finished his second fellowship, he served as a clinical pharmaceutical scientist at Kaiser Permanente. He later joined PHI Healthcare Inc. as corporate director of clinical affairs overseeing a number of clinical pharmacy programs at more than 20 medical centers.
Okamoto also served as a faculty member at Western University of Health Sciences, where he ultimately became the associate dean for assessment, associate dean for teaching effectiveness and chair of social and administrative sciences.
Starting the new school, slated to open in August, hasn't been easy, Okamoto said. The workload has kept him busy, but as he's hired an administrative team, Okamoto has been able to delegate tasks he previously handled, such as driving to sites to set up rotations and developing the curriculum.
Although there is a nationwide shortage of faculty members for pharmacy schools, Okamoto said the school's location has made it easier for him to attract quality teachers. Georgia's geography is attractive, and Suwanee's proximity to Atlanta is also a plus.
One of the reasons the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine decided to launch a pharmacy school in Georgia is because pharmacists are in demand at the moment, Okamoto said.
There are a couple of reasons for the demand for pharmacists, he said. One, the population is getting older and, therefore, takes more medicine. Two, the scope of the practice is expanding, and in addition to filling prescriptions, pharmacists are expected to counsel patients, screen for adverse drug interactions and know about medication therapy management services.
The School of Pharmacy has passed muster with the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, the Georgia Nonpublic Postsecondary Education Commission and the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Students will start classes in August pending approval from the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education.
Meanwhile, the classrooms are under construction at the Suwanee campus, the home of Gwinnett County's only medical school. In addition to classrooms, the School of Pharmacy will also contain three teaching labs, Okamoto said.
The four-year doctoral program will include three years of didactic study and one year of advanced clinical practice. The pharmacy students will learn much of the same material as the medical students, such as anatomy and physiology, but the classes will focus more on therapeutics than diagnostics. The pharmacy students must also learn about medicinal chemistry and the chemistry of drugs.
The school is currently accepting applications, and Okamoto said 75 students will be accepted in the inaugural year. The class size will increase by 15 each year thereafter to a maximum of 150 students.
