Ferguson Riots

The Meaning of the Ferguson Riots – NYTimes.com

Robert McCulloch, who is widely viewed in the minority community as being in the pockets of the police, made matters infinitely worse by handling this sensitive investigation in the worst possible way.

First, he refused to step aside in favor of a special prosecutor who could have been appointed by Gov. Jay Nixon of Missouri. He further undermined public confidence by taking a highly unorthodox approach to the grand jury proceeding. Instead of conducting an investigation and then presenting the case and a recommendation of charges to the grand jury, his office shifted its job to the grand jury. It made no recommendation on whether to indict the officer, Darren Wilson, but left it to the jurors to wade through masses of evidence to determine whether there was probable cause to file charges against Officer Wilson for Mr. Brown’s killing.

Under ordinary circumstances, grand jury hearings can be concluded within days. The proceeding in this case lasted an astonishing three months. And since grand jury proceedings are held in secret, the drawn-out process fanned suspicions that Mr. McCulloch was deliberately carrying on a trial out of public view, for the express purpose of exonerating Officer Wilson.

Inconsistency the only constant with evidence in Michael Brown case – The Washington Post

Overall, the witnesses provided a consistent account of many of the events surrounding the Aug. 9 encounter, which began through the window of the SUV and ended with Brown dead in the street.

An undated evidence photograph made available by the St. Louis County prosecutors office shows the cap that Michael Brown was wearing when he was shot to death by police officer Darren Wilson. (European Pressphoto Agency)

But the testimony fails to definitively clarify some of the most crucial details of the interaction between Wilson and Brown that day. Witnesses differed on critical aspects of the physical struggle, as well as what Brown was doing with his hands — whether he had them up in surrender as his supporters have insisted — when the fatal bullets struck.

The inconsistencies in a few cases stemmed from efforts by witnesses to mislead. But in other instances, it was more likely natural confusion, the result of people going about their day when suddenly a startling narrative unfolded.

According to the documents, in which most eyewitness names are redacted, some observed the events through car windows, while others came to their apartment windows and balconies when they heard a scuffle, catching only glimpses of what happened. Some watched, rapt, but missed key moments when they fumbled with cellphones in hopes of videotaping the incident.

For the grand jurors, the conflicting statements may have provided a boost to Wilson’s credibility or made it difficult to conclude there was probable cause, which is required for sending a case to trial.

Car plows through protesters during Ferguson rally in south Minneapolis | Star Tribune

The driver who lurched into a south Minneapolis intersection packed with Ferguson protesters was “attempting to flee from the mob” when he ran over and slightly injured a 16-year-old girl as others were atop the hood of his car, police said Wednesday.

The driver, a 40-year-old man from St. Paul, was questioned, and Minneapolis police said Wednesday that the case “remains under investigation.” The man was not arrested, and no charges have been filed.

A few hours after the incident late Tuesday afternoon at E. Lake Street and Minnehaha Avenue S., the man’s mother said in an interview he was coming home from work and “didn’t even know what was going on” when he encountered the crowd of about 1,000 blocking the intersection.

The girl who was run over by the horn-blaring Subaru station wagon was taken by emergency responders to Regions Hospital for treatment of minor injuries, police said.

Church attended by Michael Brown’s family destroyed during Monday night’s protests | Daily Mail Online

  • Missouri church attended by Michael Brown’s father family was one of a dozen or so buildings burned to the ground during Monday night’s protests
  • While the majority of buildings destroyed were in downtown Ferguson, the Flood Christian Church is located some three miles away
  • Pastor Carlton Lee said he believes that white supremacists rather than protesters were to blame for the destruction
  • ‘I’m very vocal in regards to the Michael Brown case,’ said Lee, who claims to have received 71 death threats

‘Sunday, we do the baptism, Monday, the church is one fire. It just doesn’t add up,’ he said.


He said Brown had pledged his help in repairing the damage to the storefront church that was once an automotive shop. The building and been a non-denominational church since February 2013.

‘We rebuild,’ Lee said. ‘We do not stop.’

Deadly Force, in Black and White – ProPublica

Young black males in recent years were at a far greater risk of being shot dead by police than their white counterparts — 21 times greater i, according to a ProPublica analysis of federally collected data on fatal police shootings.

The 1,217 deadly police shootings from 2010 to 2012 captured in the federal data show that blacks, age 15 to 19, were killed at a rate of 31.17 per million, while just 1.47 per million white males in that age range died at the hands of police.

Our examination involved detailed accounts of more than 12,000 police homicides stretching from 1980 to 2012 contained in the FBI’s Supplementary Homicide Report.

News

Report: Chuck Hagel Clashed With Susan Rice Before He Was Fired

Outgoing Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel reportedly had a disagreement with Obama’s National Security Adviser Susan Rice before he was removed by President Obama this week. The New York Times reports Hagel had “a dispute” with Rice over Obama’s policy on Syria.

Hagel remained skeptical of the Obama administration’s actions in Syria. Last month, he sent a two page memo detailing his concerns about the policy. According to the Times, Hagel pointed out that Obama’s policy was “in danger of unraveling” because it didn’t clarify its position toward Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

Other analysts confirmed the Times report.

“He had a crappy relationship with Susan Rice,” Steve Clemons, the founder of the American Strategy Program at the New America Foundation tells NBC News.

New Snowden Docs Show GCHQ Paid Telcos For Cable Taps

According to a report in the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung.

A new release of documents made available by Edward Snowden. The documents show British intelligence agency GCHQ had a deep partnership with telecommunications company Cable & Wireless (acquired later by Vodafone). The company allowed GCHQ to tap submarine cables around the world, and was paid millions of British pounds as compensation. The relationship was so extensive that a GCHQ employee was assigned to work full time at Cable & Wireless (referred to by the code name “Gerontic” in NSA documents) to manage cable-tap projects in February of 2009. By July of 2009, Cable & Wireless provided access to 29 out of the 63 cables on the list, accounting for nearly 70 percent of the data capacity available to surveillance programs. … As of July of 2009, relationships with three telecom companies provided access to 592 10-gigabit-per-second pipes on the cables collectively and 69 10-gbps “egress” pipes through which data could be pulled back. The July 2009 documents included a shopping list for additional cable access—GCHQ sought to more than triple its reach, upping access to 1,693 10-gigabit connections and increasing egress capacity to 390. The documents revealed a much shorter list of “cables we do not currently have good access [to].”

Marijuana stores offer high holidays with $1 joints | Stuff.co.nz

Cannabis sellers are gearing up for their first holiday season since recreational marijuana was legalised in the US state of Colorado.

At Grass Station, a shop in Denver that sells US$7 (NZ$9) joints, US$21 (NZ$27) chocolate bars and even a US$11 (NZ$14) lip balm, the goal is to get the same kind of post-Thanksgiving sales bump as department stores or clothing chains. Some pot sellers have even renamed the traditional Black Friday shopping day “Green Friday”.


“We have really high expectations,” said Grass Station owner Ryan Fox.

“Now we’ve got the legal means for people to give marijuana as a gift, and that’s never really been something that was feasible in the past.”

The shop expects a line at the door at 8am on November 28, the day after Thanksgiving, as tokers try to get their fingers on rationed specials. Sixteen customers will get an ounce of marijuana for US$50 (NZ$64) that generally sells for five times that amount. Sixty joints will go for US$1 each. The price for a US$30 (NZ$39) vape-pen cartridge will be cut in half.

Samsung Files Complaint to Block Nvidia Chips From U.S. – Bloomberg

Samsung filed a complaint yesterday against Nvidia with the
U.S. International Trade Commission in Washington, according to
a notice on the agency’s website. A copy of the complaint wasn’t
immediately available.


The legal battle began in September when Nvidia filed its
own ITC complaint against Qualcomm Inc. and Samsung over
patented ways to improve graphics. It’s asking the agency to
block imports of the latest Galaxy phones and tablets that use
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon graphics processing units or Samsung’s
Exynos processors.


Samsung retaliated Nov. 4 with a patent-infringement suit
in federal court in Richmond, Virginia. In that case, Suwon,
South Korea-based Samsung claims Nvidia and one of its customers
infringe as many as eight patents. That lawsuit targets Nvidia’s
Shield tablet computers.


Each company has denied using the other’s technology. In a
Nov. 11 statement, Nvidia called Samsung’s lawsuit “a
predictable tactic.”


‘We have not seen the complaint so can’t comment, but we
look forward to pursuing our earlier filed ITC action against
Samsung products,” Hector Marinez, a spokesman for Santa Clara,
California-based Nvidia, said in an e-mailed statement.

Judge Unseals 500+ Stingray Records

A judge in Charlotte, North Carolina, has unsealed a set of 529 court documents in hundreds of criminal cases detailing the use of a stingray, or cell-site simulator, by local police. This move, which took place earlier this week, marks a rare example of a court opening up a vast trove of applications made by police to a judge, who authorized each use of the powerful and potentially invasive device


According to the Charlotte Observer, the records seem to suggest that judges likely did not fully understand what they were authorizing. Law enforcement agencies nationwide have taken extraordinary steps to preserve stingray secrecy. As recently as this week, prosecutors in a Baltimore robbery case dropped key evidence that stemmed from stingray use rather than fully disclose how the device was used.

Eyes-on with Streaming Photoshop: Adobe’s plan to bring PS to the cloud | Ars Technica

Streaming Photoshop” is Adobe and Google’s plan to bring the incomparable photo editor to Chrome OS and the Chrome Browser.

“Streaming Photoshop” is a Chrome App that you download from the Chrome store (provided you are whitelisted). The app opens in a window that looks just like a local version of Photoshop—there’s no browser UI of any kind. Photoshop lives on a computer in the cloud, and a video feed of it is streamed to the Chrome app. The app captures clicks and sends them to the server. It sounds like using it would be a clunky mess, but the whole process looked indistinguishable from a local install of Photoshop.


Chrome OS has taken off as a competitor to Windows—the NPD’s last estimate put it at 35% of commercial notebook sales—but it lacks a few killer apps like Photoshop. The other benefit is that you can now run Photoshop on just about any computer without having to worry about RAM and CPU usage, since all the computer has to display is a video stream. Adobe says even the $200 Chromebooks on the market today should be fast enough to handle Streaming Photoshop.


Three to 4MB/s will get you the best results, and Adobe says Streaming Photoshop should still be usable on connections as slow as 1MB/s. There’s no offline support, of course.


Streaming Photoshop runs version 15.2.1 (the latest version) on a Windows box from Google Compute Engine.


That means you’ll be getting the Windows title bar and menus regardless of what your host OS is. The app will remap hotkeys, though, so other than a few minor visual differences, it shouldn’t feel too weird. Right now there’s no GPU support, so things like 3D functions are currently off-limits—the whole menu was grayed-out. There’s also no way to print directly from Photoshop.


Storage used Google Drive—it does not currently work with Creative Cloud—and if your file is in Google’s cloud, it opens instantly, no uploading required. We’d imagine most people have their Photoshop files backed up 24/7 in Creative Cloud, Dropbox, or Google Drive, so this shouldn’t be a big change for most people. Adobe says Creative Cloud support is coming, but for now, on Google’s platform, Drive support comes free.

What XFINITY Internet Data Usage Plans will Comcast be Launching?

In the Tucson, Arizona market, we announced in 2012 that the data amount included with Economy Plus through Performance XFINITY Internet tiers would increase from 250 GB to 300 GB. Those customers subscribed to the Blast! Internet tier, have received an increase in their data usage plan to 350 GB; Extreme 50 customers have received an increase to 450 GB; Extreme 105 customers have received an increase to 600 GB. As in our other trial market areas, we offer additional gigabytes in increments/blocks of 50 GB for $10.00 each in the event the customer exceeds their included data amount.


In Huntsville and Mobile, Alabama; Atlanta, Augusta and Savannah, Georgia; Central Kentucky;Maine;Jackson,Mississippi;Knoxville and Memphis, Tennessee and Charleston,South Carolina, we have begun a trial which will increase our data usage plan for all XFINITY Internet tiers to 300 GB per month and will offer additional gigabytes in increments/blocks (e.g., $10.00 per 50 GB). In this trial, XFINITY Internet Economy Plus customers can choose to enroll in the Flexible-Data Option to receive a $5.00 credit on their monthly bill and reduce their data usage plan from 300 GB to 5 GB. If customers choose this option and use more than 5 GB of data in any given month, they will not receive the $5.00 credit and will be charged an additional $1.00 for each gigabyte of data used over the 5 GB included in the Flexible-Data Option.

AP Twitter account hacked

Anyone that follows the Associated Press on Twitter just heard \”news\” of an unprecedented national crisis. \”Two Explosions in the White House and Barack Obama is injured,\” the AP\’s account tweeted moments ago.

Less than a month after social media received regulators\’ blessing to be a source for market- moving news, the hacking of the Associated Press\’s Twitter Inc. account is raising concerns over the trustworthiness of information spread via the microblogging site.

CISPA is Coming…?

According to data from the Sunlight Foundation, CISPA allies have spent $605 million on lobbying since 2011. The biggest spenders were the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which blew $163 million, and AT&T, which spent $34 million. In all, 52 groups donated at least $100,000 each to members of Congress.

Despite an $84 million lobbying effort, CISPA, the controversial bill aimed at making it easier for corporations to share customers\’ personal information with the government, faces an uncertain future after approval in the US House of Representatives.

Members of Congress who voted for CISPA last week have received threats of violence and had their phone numbers, addresses and other personal details posted online by those who disagree with the legislation.

A Twitter user called \”Grim Reaper\” wrote:

\”For your support of CISPA Rep. Mike Pompeo, the bill to end privacy, here is your dox\”

Then shared a document including the congressman\’s work address and phone number, military service and salary, and even his zodiac sign. The document was posted to Pastebin, a website favored by hackers like Anonymous.

Anonymous has been calling on all websites to blackout their
pages ever since the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act
(CISPA) passed the US House of Representatives on
Thursday.

Boston Bomb Run

While the fast-paced reporting of rumours, hyperbole and innuendo serves very little to the cause of informing and enlightening the millions who rely on cable news for information, it undoubtedly does well at generating widespread fear and hysteria. This is less the result of a grand conspiracy than of simple market economics. Throughout the crisis, ratings at major cable news stations surged – shooting up 194 percent from normal averages at CNN while also posting smaller yet still materially-significant gains at Fox News and MSNBC.

On Thursday night [Friday morning] at 12:45am EST. I was in my living room working on my computer when I heard multiple \”pops\” coming from outside. At that point, I had no idea that I was about to become an eye witness to the biggest news story in the country.

The journalist interviewed in this video describes naked man\’s capture near Nichols and Dexter, literally down the street from the shootout.

Naked man was apparently stripped, questioned, clothed, questioned some more, and reportedly let go. It\’s likely police stripped him because they were under citywide bomb threat and wanted to make sure he didn\’t have a suicide vest, but the police did not comment on that

\”This looks more to me like Columbine than it does al Qaeda,\” the counter terrorism expert observed. \”Two kids who radicalized between themselves in a closed circle go out and commit murder. I would charge these guys as murders, not terrorists.\”

Investigators are trying to determine whether the Boston Marathon bombing suspects used gunpowder from fireworks to create at least some of the bombs they spread across the finish line.

It has often been observed that the war on terror is unwinnable. After all, how could a war on an abstract noun ever have its \”Mission Accomplished\” moment? It is, according to this wisdom, meant to drag on forever.

Just because a war can\’t be won, however, doesn\’t mean it can\’t be lost. The truth is that the war on terror is over. And America has lost.


Poison Letters

No charges have been filed against Dutschke and he hasn\’t been arrested. Both he and Curtis, who had faced charges in the case, say they have no idea how to make the poisonous ricin and had nothing to do with sending the letters to President Barack Obama, U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi and a state judge.

Both were signed \”I am KC and I approve this message.\” It is a sign off phrase Curtis used frequently in Internet postings.


The Drone School

A drone school teaches students how to build and fly unmanned vehicles.

GOP Benghazi Report Blasts Hillary

Citing administration emails provided to the House committees, the 46-page report claims that \”to protect the State Department, the Administration deliberately removed references to al-Qaeda-linked groups and previous attacks in Benghazi in the talking points used by Ambassador Rice.\”

This has been a long game for the Republicans. They really want this has leverage over the Obama Administration. Not necessarily a bad play, but it seems like a bit of a weak hand politically. Though the more dirt they dig up, the better their case gets.

Fox News has spent more than half a year blaming the Obama administration for the tragic deaths of U.S. personnel in Benghazi and wielding that attack as a cudgel in an attempt to cause political damage. They have politicized the attack since day 1, claiming that the Obama administration\’s actions are directly responsible for the deaths and pushing conspiracies about administration officials deliberately misleading the public.


After being ordered by a DC circuit court to hold public rulemaking hearings for its Whole Body Imaging scanners more than a year ago, the TSA has finally opened the screening policy for public comment. As of today, the TSA has received more than 600 public comments, and online comments will be accepted through June 24th at 11:59 PM ET — you can file your own comments on the government\’s Regulations.gov website.
