Vanderbilt Law and Economics Working Paper No. 06-30
Columbia Law and Economics Working Paper No. 310
Network neutrality has emerged as one of the highest profile issues in telecommunications and Internet policy last year. Not only did it play a pivotal role in both houses of Congress during debates over proposed communications reform legislation; it also emerged as a key consideration during the Federal Communications Commission consideration of the recent SBC-AT&T, Verizon-MCI, and AT&T-BellSouth mergers. In the following exchange, Professors Tim Wu and Christopher Yoo engage in a lively debate over the merits of network neutrality that reviews the leading arguments on both sides of the issue.

The Arctic Biodiversity Assessment report will be launched at the largest ever gathering of polar scientists in Oslo, at the International Polar Year Science Conference.
The report will be launched at a side event June 10, 2010 at 17:00 at the Norway Convention Centre (Oslo) Room A1-1. The report launch will be opened by Mark Marissink the Swedish National Representative to the CAFF Working Group. There will then be a panel discussion with participants coming from a variety of disciplines who will discuss arctic biodiversity and the changes now underway
About the report:
Unique Arctic habitats for flora and fauna, including sea ice, tundra, lakes, and peatlands have been disappearing over recent decades, and some characteristic Arctic species have shown a decline. Changes in Arctic Biodiversity have global repercussions and are further creating challenges for people living in the Arctic.
The above statements are examples on the key findings describing changes in Arctic biodiversity that is presented in 'The Arctic Biodiversity Trends – 2010: Selected Indicators of Change', a new report synthesizing scientific findings on the status and trends for selected biodiversity in the Arctic issued by the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF) Working Group under the Arctic Council.
GRID-Arendal contributed to the report through editing, graphic design, and the production of all cartographics.

This outfit shows you a great way to incorporate bright colors into your winter wardrobe–think your favorite summer outfit but with some additions. By throwing on some sheer tights and a knit beanie, you've got the layers you need to stay comfortable, but still looking good.

Black Hawk Statue at Lowden State Park
At Eagle's Nest Bluff in Lowden State Park, proudly stands a 48-foot statue of a Native American quietly revering the beauty of the River Rock Valley below.

Castle Rock State Park is located three miles south of Oregon on Highway 2. The 2,000-acre park includes rock formations, ravines, and unique northern plant associations.

Picnic area amenities include tables, shelters, grills, toilets, drinking water and playground equipment. Six miles of marked hiking trails have been developed, and a public boat ramp/parking facility is located across from the park's main entrance.
One of the most picturesque sites along the Rock River is just north of Oregon in Ogle County. The bluffs are graced with a majestic image of an American Indian gazing over the Rock River Valley. This is no ordinary statue. It is a 50 foot, concrete-reinforced wonder that is awe-inspiring. A tribute to all Native Americans, but more commonly associated with Chief Black Hawk, the statue was designed by sculptor Lorado Taft. You can enjoy many wonderful views of the Rock River from the park, but the best view of the statue is from IL Rt. 2.

Garry's column at Informant 113
I am happy to present major novelties in Chess Informant 113! We are introducing large amount of exclusive content written in English.
What do you think about the idea that Garry Kasparov, one of the greatest champions all the time, is annotating one game by his choice every third month? Not some classic game but the one played in every three months period!
Dreams come true! I still can't reveal what game Garry has chosen for his inaugural column but for the first readers it's not a secret anymore. If you know what is the game, please write it in Comments section! The book and CD are available at your local chess bookstore or through online store at .
For further explanation let me present article written by our CEO, Josip Asik.
By Josip Asik
Garry Kasparov, the thirteenth World Champion, tremendously influenced the development of chess with his games, analyses, and writings. The quality of this work has greatly enriched our chess culture, and Chess Informant has had the privilege of presenting the fruits of his deep analytical work for more than thirty years.
The number thirteen has always been Garry's lucky number, and Chess Informant 113 sees the return of his analytical work in the pages of our publication. Seven years after his retirement from professional chess, we are deeply honoured to welcome Garry back to Chess Informant! In the new column, "Garry's Choice," he will be annotating select games from recent practice, casting his critical eye on the efforts of modern chess stars – and mere "mortals" – in his trademark style.
You would never guess in a hundred tries as to what game Garry chose to start his inaugural column. We couldn't, either! I will only reveal that he describes it as "a unique guest even on chess Olympus" and claimed he "had never seen anything like it in my chess career"!
We call Chess Informant 113 the Clockwork Edition, and it is the culmination of changes that began incrementally with Volume 109 – let's call it the modern Informant era. I am proud that many readers and reviewers have recognized the value of our new content.
Another new column being introduced in Volume 113 is "Top Five." Here, five top players offer their insight into some of their best recent achievements. In this issue they are, from Russia and the Ukraine, Alexander Morozevich, Evgeny Tomashevsky, Nikita Vitiugov, Ernesto Inarkiev, and Alexander Moiseenko.
The "Top Five" column is in English, but we asked that the players submit the material in their native language in order for them to give the clearest expression to their thoughts. Our staff was, of course, prepared to translate, but no one could foresee that we would receive six scanned large-format, handwritten papers like Morozevich sent us! If one of the world's brightest players was willing to put so much effort into his annotations, we could hardly ask him to resend it as a computer file. So we took up the challenge and decoded it!
Since its debut in Volume 110, with five contributors, the CI Labs column has now grown to having ten grandmaster authors. This time Ivan Cheparinov, Veselin Topalov's second and close associate, graces our pages with his original analysis and textual explanations. He is joined by fellow new contributors Erdos, Halkias, Sanikidze, and Pap, as well as returning authors Markus, Delchev, Ivanisevic, Sundararajan, and Perunovic. The featured theoretical surveys are:
- GM Ivan Cheparinov - Queen's gambit D35
- GM Ivan Ivanisevic - King's Indian Defence E97
- GM Alexander Delchev - English opening A20
- GM Kidambi Sundararajan - Ruy Lopez C67, Berlin Defence
- GM Viktor Erdos - Ruy Lopez C67, Rio de Janeiro variation
- GM Misa Pap - French Defence C02
- GM Stelios Halkias - English opening A30
- GM Tornike Sanikidze - Queen's gambit D39
- GM Robert Markus - Volga-Benko gambit A57
- GM Milos Perunovic - Sicilian Defence B42
In the "Rising Stars" column, newly promoted hero from the Aegean Sea, IM Antonis Pavlidis presents two of his beautiful game from his winning performance at the Greek Championship. The "Best of Chess Informant" article highlights the career of Alexander Morozevich. And, as usual, readers will enjoy the sections on Combinations, Endings, Excellent Moves, Studies (by Yochanan Afek), Problems (by Milan Velimirovic), and the best game and best novelty contests.
Not to forget 171 pages of Annotated Games – traditional section, which is gathering 80+ contributors including World champion Viswanathan Anand and grandmasters such as Volokitin, Bologan, Shankland, Macieja, Tiviakov, Roiz, Sulskis, Jimenez, Amin, Rogers, Golod, Marin, Smith, etc.
The other major announcement concerning Volume 113 is that it kicks off our new publication schedule of four issues per year: March, June, September, and December. That is about 1,000 annotated high-level games per year! Stay tuned.

The Lady Drovers struggled against conference-rivals No. 6 Oklahoma City on Thursday night but managed to shoot 81 percent from the line and grab 31 rebounds.
USAO women were defeated 86-48.
Both Krista Beaty and Charitie Lewis had 12 points and four rebounds. Beaty hit two of her five from beyond the arc.
Aita Gueye had 10 points, four rebounds and three assists Thursday night.
The Drovers fought for shots but struggled to make them against the high-powered Stars.
USAO men gave No. 17 Oklahoma City a run for its money Thursday night, coming within five points of tying the game at the last buzzer.
Despite Fred Savoie's 20 points, the Drovers lost 68-63. Savoie also had five rebounds, three assists and two steals.
Thomas Peters had 17 points, but Anthony Turner, who shot 50 percent from the field, had a double-double with 12 points and 13 rebounds. Freshman Mike Randle had six assists.
The Drovers used strong defense against the Stars, earning seven steals and four blocks. Between defense and tough fighting for possession and shots, they kept the game close, going into halftime down by only three. Oklahoma City never had more than a seven-point lead.
Unfortunately, the Drovers weren't hitting their 3-pointers as well as usual, sinking only five of 20 attempts.
USAO heads to Oklahoma City to play Mid-America Christian on Saturday afternoon, and then again Monday night to take on the Stars another time. The Drovers will play their last home game against Oklahoma Baptist on Feb. 27.

On Sept. 2, areas of the Seeley burn scar in Huntington Canyon received a large amount of precipitation which resulted in SR-31 being closed at approximately 5 p.m. due to large debris flows. The debris flows came out of North Hughes Canyon at MP23.5, South Hughes Canyon at MP24.5, Engineer Canyon at MP25.5, Mill Canyon at MP26 and Day Canyon at MP26.5. The largest debris flows came out of South Hughes Canyon and Mill Canyon. The large volume of water going down Huntington Creek damaged the shoulder of the road in several places, and the gabion baskets near Stuart Guard Station at MP28 have fallen into the creek. At Mill Canyon, the debris flow has filled the creek channel and the water is now running along the side of the road. It is estimated that SR31 through Huntington Canyon will be closed from Crandall Canyon MP33 to Miller's Flat junction MP18 for a week. UDOT is working on reopening the highway.
This is the third time since the Seeley Fire that SR-31 has been closed for a significant amount of time. The closure of SR-31 has a great impact on the workers that travel the canyon daily for work at the power plant, coal mines and construction sites. The debris flows into Huntington Creek compromise the quality of the water entering the power plant and irrigation systems. It is anticipated that this will be an ongoing occurrence for the next few years during rain events, spring runoff and possible avalanches in the winter.
SR-31 reopened on Friday but caution is recommended in the burn area and avoid the canyon when rain is threatening.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (commonly called WIC) offers food, nutrition counseling, and access to health services for low-income women, infants, and children.
Breastfeeding mothers supported by WIC may receive peer counselor support, an enhanced food package, breast pumps, and other supplies. Breastfeeding mothers can also participate in WIC longer than non-breastfeeding mothers. Many WIC offices have an IBCLC as well.
You can check to see if you qualify for WIC benefits. Find contact information for your local WIC program, or call the national WIC office at 703-305-2746.
The Office on Women/s Health Helpline is staffed with breastfeeding peer counselors who can answer your breastfeeding questions, support you through breastfeeding challenges, and connect you with other resources to help if needed.
The OWH Helpline is staffed Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. EST. Call 800-994-9662. Closed on federal holidays.
What are breastmilk donor banks?
Breastmilk banks supply fresh breastmilk. You may choose to use banked milk if you:
Some mothers give their milk directly to parents of babies in need. This is called "casual sharing." But this milk has not been tested in a lab like milk has at a human milk bank. The Food and Drug Administration recommends against feeding your baby breastmilk that you get either directly from other women or through the Internet.
A human milk bank can give you donor human milk if you have a prescription from your doctor. For more information on milk banking and how to contact a milk bank, visit the Human Milk Banking Association of North America.
The Affordable Care Act requires most health insurance plans to provide breastfeeding equipment and counseling for pregnant and new moms. This means you can get support from a lactation consultant and a breast pump — one you can rent or buy, depending on your plan — at no cost to you.
Talk to your insurer to find out what your plan covers. Learn more about the Affordable Care Act and your benefits at healthcare.gov.

Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
So Luffy would give it to someone in his crew, it can't be Sanji because 1-He'd be too strong (most likely he'd be able to match Zoro then) and 2-He's too good of a swimmer.
If anyone gets it, it should be the only person who doesn't have a set fighting style, which is Nami! and even with the fruit she still wouldn't be stronger then Sanji so the Monster Trio wouldn't change - as it stands now, she just runs around waiting for thunder clouds to form, but no one strong is going to lose to 1 lightning bolt (which should be the limit to her strength because she uses weather to fight, maybe she could have a thundercloud that strikes a whole bunch of times, but still it's limited to a lightning strike). Maybe she won't get it, but one can dream lol (and with her already orange hair, it would look cool on the anime)
Hopes and Dreams aside, I think the fruit will be destroyed somehow. The Straw Hats getting the Fire Logia at this point seems too overpowered, unless the limit to people's strength in OPverse is much higher then I think it is, though it can't be that strong because during the War the PX's were able to obliterate 'Famous' New-World Pirate allies of White Beard.
EDIT: Also, I don't think Nami powered up like the rest of them during the Time Skip, more like, she learned a lot about the weather anomalies in the New World (which given the little weather guy's description was nuts) - I also can't remember, but did Nami have a major fight in Fishman Island? i remember her lightning rod, then Brook came and fought a main guy, instead of her
It isn't too overpowered, since haki is pretty much standard for those who make it in the new world.
I still stand by the idea of sanji eating the fruit if one of the SH's were to eat it.
It suits him perfectly, especially with his fire-themed cooking-fighting-style and flaming kicks.
Yes I know he's the best swimmer, but that won't be an issue if jimbei joins the crew.
And as I thought, all these gladiators are fodder for Lucy, it'll come down to the collisseum's champions.

This tournament reminds me of Dragonball. I can see a Lao G vs LuCy(not heartphilia) in the semi-finals/Final.
I vote Franky merging the Mera Mera with one of Zoro's swords ala Vega punk!
Where's Kinemon, that perv got lost in the Love alley!?
^ Haha, now that you mention it Oda has seemingly been picking on Fairy tail recently, what with the whole making a tournament arc right after Fairy tail's ended, introducing "fairies", and now calling Luffy Lucy . I wouldn't be surprised if we see a few more pokes at Fairy Tail in the next few chapters.
Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
Lucy for next crew mate. I don't know about you guys, but something about Lucy screams Straw hat.
I Love You!
Added the MS version on top.
Oda had me at Lucy.
Crazy theory-time:
Maybe the blind guy -Fuji-cough-tora?- somehow intercepts the fruit and takes it back to the navy HQ as requested by garp, and he'll give it to Coby.
Maybe a little far-fetched but it would be an interesting devellopment.
Oh, and I wouldn't be surprised if the factory ends up being below the colliseum.
It looks like the perfect place to hide it.

Can the '12 Jets be the '11 Lightning?
Cam Charron
July 19 2011 02:29PM
If a modest goal of the Winnipeg Jets this season is to stay in the playoff hunt towards the end of the season, it is certainly not a task without precedent.
Last year, the overhauled Tampa Bay Lightning went from 23rd in goals for and 27th in goals against to finish 7th in goals for and 22nd in goals against to not only make the playoffs, but took the eventual Stanley Cup Champions to seven games in the Eastern Conference Final.
The Bolts did it with more of a swipe in the executive offices than on-ice personnel. Other than Simon Gagne and Pavel Kubina, the Lightning made little moves of note in the offseason, but their success came to better systems management and off-ice work that saw the Lightning take fewer penalties than they drew (they were -10 differential in '10 and +34 in '11) and bring their 27th-in-the-NHL .83 even strength goals for/against ratio back up to even terms.
If Moneyball is the story about how a shrewd front office found underachieving baseball players, another terrific baseball book, The Extra 2%, talks about how a progressive front office redefined off-field techniques to get maximum output from their players. It follows a season from the team on the other side of the Bay, the Tampa Bay Rays.
Consider how Guy Boucher balanced out the team's zone starts from the previous reign under Rick Tocchet. While the Lightning got an inferior contribution offensively from Steven Stamkos and Vincent Lecavalier, who slipped from 100 goals combined to 70, there was a greater contribution across the board. A goal from Teddy Purcell was valued as much on the scoresheet as Actual defensive forwards rather than the third-and-fourth-liners took some the tough minutes (Adam Hall and Nate Thompson both had a very effective seasons) but it didn't necessarily leave the stars off the hook. As they say in certain hockey circles, "everybody bought in" to the new system and while they could have been better at even strength in both possession and zone finishes, the turnaround was a big factor in finding every capable hand to turn around the goal scoring.
The Jets and new coach Claude Noel, unfortunately, lacks the star power that Guy Boucher had to work with, which was ultimately what led the Lightning to the Eastern Conference Finals, along with a much tougher division, but there are some lessons to take away from the Lightning turnaround. These are lessons that may help the Jets stay in the playoff hunt come April:
1: The impact of specialty teams can't be ignored. Last season, the Thrashers were a +4 in powerplay opportunities. That number should be increased with a focus on giving the defensive forwards the run of the defensive starts. Nate Thompson and Adam Hall took .6 penalties per 60 minutes with the load last season. Given similar situations, Zenon Konopka and Todd Fedoruk took 1.5 and 1.0, respectively. A defensive situation is not ripe for a tough guy.
2: The scoring is well-balanced at even strength. A full season of Blake Wheeler in an offensive role should add a few more goals. Evander Kane and Andrew Ladd had low PDOs. In fact, the second half of last season, the Thrashers were actually playing better than in the first half, but suffering from a lack of lady luck. The team's shooting percentage balancing out to normal levels earns the team a few goals. However, the team can't focus all the scoring on one or two guys. I would advocate for Ladd to get primarily defensive zone starts and some of the tougher matchups.
3: Zach Bogosian is a good defenseman, but he needs a lighter workload until he can handle the tough minutes. This is where a trade for a veteran defensive defenseman (Hal Gill, Colin White, Cory Sarich) pays dividends for the future.
4: The Lightning finally got their goaltender in mid-December with the trade for Dwayne Roloson, who was, in a word, awesome last season. A healthy Ondrej Pavelec playing the way he did last season could be an X-Factor and the difference that leads to two or three extra wins.
The Thrashers finished with 80 points last season and need to hop over New Jersey, Toronto and Carolina, along with a playoff team, to get in. It won't be an easy task, particularly with the limited addition of players this season, but it appears Kevin Cheveldayoff is laying down a foundation and will build around the team's more established players than reaching out for star power. A balanced approach, a new coaching staff, better management and advanced pro scouting techniques is what helps average teams become good, and good teams become great.
The turnaround may not be as quick as Tampa's, but every little bit counts, and off-ice management plays a part in the little bits that add up. Given the clean slate, there is more cause for optimism going into this season than last.
Uh oh! You said the S-word (Sarich). That means every Flamer is going to come on now and suggest a trade of Cory Sarich for Mark Scheifele and a 3rd round pick "because it makes sense for Winnipeg to want our overpaid utility defenseman".
If it's a veteran defensive defenceman you're looking for why not Scott Hannan?
July 20 2011, 03:27AM
Back a year ago, Tampa wasn't sure what the 2010-11 season would be like for them. Yzerman's approach was to put a competitive team on the ice, while also trying to build an underlying surface.
Here's where I see similarities between Winnipeg and Tampa. The 11-12 Jets have plenty of potential. Management is also focused on improving other area's in the organization like player development.
Similarities end here! Lecavalier, St.Louis and Stamkos are miles above Winnipeg' scoring by committee offensive. Guys like Purcell and Downie benefit from their presence.
You are setting yourself up for disappointment if you think that the team is good enough for the playoffs. I'm looking forward to players taking steps towards improving their games: Bogosian, Wheeler, Little, Kane.
Lecavalier, St Louis and Stamkos are miles above what Boston has too but they won the Cup. I don't think it's a reach for the Jets to make the playoffs with the talent they have.

Flash back
"This shoe reminds me of the 80's! They pinch a little at the toes after you wear them a while, I anticipate that changing since they are cloth and will mold to my feet after a few wears. The strap slips off my right heel quite a bit, but I may just have weird heels. Overall a cute pair of shoes that are perfect for spring."

Beautiful floral, not too high of a heel
"Love the pattern - wore with an eggplant colored dress. The shoe base color is more grey than cream, like I originally thought and there is some (army) green in there too. Worked very well with a solid color dress. Heel height not too high and they fit my wide feet perfectly. Wore them out dancing. Great, especially for the price! Love them!"

Ironic reference to a cheap and/or beat-up banger of a car. Originated in response to Ronald Reagan's exaggeration of a Chicago welfare fraud case in which $8,000 was received. Reagan reported the amount as $150,000 dollars, possibly conflating it with the case of Dorothy Woods and her 38 pretended children, and said the woman owned a Cadillac.
Yep, this old banger's my Welfare Cadillac. Who knew they still had an Edsel in stock?

Anglers find excellent fishing for largemouth and smallmouth bass, channel catfish, bluegill, crappie and redear sunfish. Especially popular are the annual fall and spring stockings of rainbow trout, which provide an unusual opportunity for central Illinois anglers to fish for catch-able size trout. There are 12 launching ramps on nine of Kickapoo's lakes. Boat and canoe rental is available for Clear Pond.

Disappointed Bride
"I ordered these shoes for my wedding, the left shoe fit perfect, while the right ankle strap was about 2 inches longer than the left which made the right shoe not fit. Giving the benefit of the doubt that this was probably just a defective shoe, I reordered them again. Much to my dissapointment I received them today, along with the same problem. Wedding is in 3 weeks and now I am shoeless."

During the early 1900s, images of women and children were a favourite subject for traditional and more modern artists alike. In Portrait group (The mother), Lambert contrasted two women: one wearing the kind of billowing dress worn in feminist and artistic circles, and the other standing next to her with her hand placed cavalierly on her shoulder, wearing a fashionable black satin waisted coat and a high-necked dress. In this way he contrasted the supple, rounded form of one woman against the more statuesque figure of the other, and in so doing suggested the difference between a woman's role as a mother and that as an independent woman. As with his other family groups he used his wife and children as models, together with their artist friend Thea Proctor.
This is one of a number of images of women and children that Lambert painted, to which he gave objective titles such as Equestrian portrait of a boy (cat.26) and Holiday in Essex (cat.44) rather than the subjective 'The artist's family' or 'Amy, Maurice and Constant'. He intended his wife and children to signify the 'ideal' mother and children and not to represent themselves. He sometimes depicted his second son Constant dressed in a frock that was then used for baby boys, as in this work, and generally with his genitalia hidden, so that he could be viewed as any child and not specifically as this particular boy-child.
Lambert's depiction of the boy in the long coat with his feet firmly planted on the ground looking out of the picture with an expression of roguish defiance resembles Velázquez's portrait Philip IV of Spain in brown and silver 1632 (National Gallery, London). The stance of this figure also recalls Hans Holbein's portrait of Henry VIII or Reynolds's mock-heroic Master Crewe as Henry VIII 1776 (private collection). Lambert appropriated the pose, which through its common usage had become part of the general vocabulary of art. Lambert admitted that 'the pose and atmosphere are traditional enough; and has actually no more relationship with Spanish art than with anything modern' (ML MSS A1811 p.70). What is more, the costume came about by accident. Maurice was originally going to be painted in a white shirt, but one day he was fooling around with his father's coat and Lambert, delighted with this image, incorporated it into the painting.
In this family group Lambert worked in the tradition of prominent society portrait painter Charles Furse. Like Furse, Lambert did not seek to paint a naturalistic outdoor image, particularly in his depiction of the landscape and the placement of the figures in it. Rather, he wanted to create a decorative effect, using the billowing forms of the clouds to enhance the rounded shapes of the figures, and deliberately placing dark shapes against light. In discussing this picture Lambert observed that 'the dextrous brushwork, the following of the contours, the suave movement of drapery and clouds – are distinctly influenced by Furze'. (Lambert 1924, p.13)
The painting received favourable comment from contemporary London critics. The Times suggested on 4 May 1907 that the painting was 'full of promise for the future', while P.G. Konody, who became a staunch supporter of Lambert's work, noted in the supplement to the Observer on 5 May 1907 that it was 'painted with such freshness and such musical sense of colour that it is as bracing as a sea-breeze after the studio-made articles that abound all round'. He went on to suggest that Lambert's 'chief aim seems to have been the realisation of a decorative effect by rhythmic arrangement of line and balance of masses'.
This work is reported to have been Amy Lambert's favourite portrait group.

Over the past year, the Department has worked with teams of accomplished professionals from several groups representing educators in specialized roles. This collaboration has resulted in the creation of role-specific evaluation instruments that districts may choose to adopt. While the Department does not require the use of these instruments, we support the educator groups in their efforts to promote the use of tools that address the specific job responsibilities of their members. As the Department continues to develop guidance for staff members in specialized roles, we will continue to learn from these groups and their partner districts during their first year of utilizing these evaluation instruments, which are listed below:

Skip to comments.Edward Snowden Q&A: NSA whistleblower answers your questions (11am EDT)
Posted on 06/17/2013 7:08:42 AM PDT by Perdogg
LiveThe whistleblower behind the biggest intelligence leak in NSA history will be live online at 11am ET/4pm BST to answer your questions about the NSA surveillance revelations
(Excerpt) Read more at guardian.co.uk ...
Hope he is behind bull## proof glass.
"Hello Edward, what color is the building you're in? What kind of view do you have from your window?"
So will the NSA be able to track down his location once he's online?
I'd love to ask him a question, but I'm afraid the NSA will be monitoring.
Don't know. The Guardian says he'll be "appearing and disappearing" so I'm guessing he's going to have an encrypted VPN tunnel from his phone.
The best expose on PRISM now comes from the 40 year career NSA employee, William Benny, who became the director of Intelligence there under Geroge W. Bush. He has gone public since Snowden and detailed the full capabilities of PRISM and what the NSA was doing.
Former Director of NSA Intelligence reveals the full extent of PRISM capabilities. MUST SEE!
Someone needs to ask him if his ex-girlfriend does lap-dances.
"What is your current geographic coordinates?"
English :(
Is he in China? A place well known for 'freedom'? /s
I scanned some of the questions..the one I would like answered- if he even knows- is it possible/easy/very difficult to access data on members of Congress and Judiciary? Could a savvy person get and copy such info?
Back layer
Wheels within wheels.
I hope someone asks him about last Nov voter tampering.
Already countless questions at link.
All Snowden would have to do is drive around Hong Kong picking up on unlocked WiFi Signals ... there must be 50 every block
Snowden - "All I can say right now is the US Government is not going to be able to cover this up by jailing or murdering me. Truth is coming, and it cannot be stopped."
I'm no Twitter-Wiz but it looks like we have lots of Questions and, so far, no Answers. 9 minutes late as I type this.
Yes. I finally figured that out.
Exposing yourself to questions from an internet forum is much smarter than to sit down with some MSM dingbat like Barbara Walters, Larry King, Piers Morgan, Diane Sawyer, Sean Hannity, Charlie Rose, Matt Lauer,.................
This internet thingy could become a powerful medium, if people would wake up and turn off CNN, MSNBC and Fox News Channel which is the official channel of Big Brother.
Q - Did you lie about your salary? What is the issue there? Why did you tell Glenn Greenwald that your salary was $200,000 a year, when it was only $122,000 (according to the firm that fired you.)
"I was debriefed by Glenn and his peers over a number of days, and not all of those conversations were recorded. The statement I made about earnings was that $200,000 was my "career high" salary. I had to take pay cuts in the course of pursuing specific work. Booz was not the most I've been paid."
I'm confused - How do we know this is him - this seems dumb.
You have to accept that the Guardian wouldn't participate in an interview with an imposter.
Snowden will already have had experience in identification protocols. You can be sure he has established a process for the Guardian to confirm his identity.
"Truth is coming, and it cannot be stopped.
If that site gets jammed up, go here
Many have made that the foundation of their opinion — "he lied about his salary, which means we can't trust him on anything!" That's going to undercut that foundation pretty completely; the rebuttal that Greenwald couldn't have made a mistake is far less likely.
1) More detail on how direct NSA's accesses are is coming, but in general, the reality is this: if an NSA, FBI, CIA, DIA, etc analyst has access to query raw SIGINT databases, they can enter and get results for anything they want. Phone number, email, user id, cell phone handset id (IMEI), and so on - it's all the same. The restrictions against this are policy based, not technically based, and can change at any time. Additionally, audits are cursory, incomplete, and easily fooled by fake justifications. For at least GCHQ, the number of audited queries is only 5% of those performed.
2) NSA likes to use "domestic" as a weasel word here for a number of reasons. The reality is that due to the FISA Amendments Act and its section 702 authorities, Americans communications are collected and viewed on a daily basis on the certification of an analyst rather than a warrant. They excuse this as "incidental" collection, but at the end of the day, someone at NSA still has the content of your communications. Even in the event of "warranted" intercept, it's important to understand the intelligence community doesn't always deal with what you would consider a "real" warrant like a Police department would have to, the "warrant" is more of a templated form they fill out and send to a reliable judge with a rubber stamp.
I'm unclear about why he is taking so long to dump it all.
Booz Allen is evidently a NSA sweatshop that paid him 78k less that he made elsewhere. Booz Allen the Walmart of defense contractors.
Unfortunately, shortly after assuming power, he closed the door on investigating systemic violations of law, deepened and expanded several abusive programs, and refused to spend the political capital to end the kind of human rights violations like we see in Guantanamo, where men still sit without charge.
Assuming power, cool phrase, Eddie.
The restrictions against this are policy based, not technically based, and can change at any time. Additionally, audits are cursory, ,
Translation, IT guys can get around the empty suits guys who think that they are in charge.
Personally, I trust a British newspaper more than ANY DOMESTIC MSM outlet.
If you want to know the truth, British journalists are more reliable.
Ambrose Evans-Pritchards of the Telegraph told more truths about the Clinton crime family than you will ever find from domestic MSM.
Maybe he wants all of it looked at. If it all comes out, some points will be overlooked as less important.
Him starting out with 2009 G20 made me think he's going to go by date, not shock, order.
Americans have short memories. Its better to slowly leak stuff to keep the pressure on and expose the government's lies.
Plus his safety is not guaranteed. There is no reason to use up all his ammo yet. Better to aim carefully and keep landing direct hits.
Notice how Sarah Palin always gets attention when she snipes on Facebook and twitter but the content of her speeches is ignored by the press.
Snowden knows what he is doing and he has been very effective at getting attention. The former NSA whistleblower Binny(sp?) was ignored
I have to admit that the dialogue sounds like Snowden. But I'm still mystified as to how he has (or if he really has) escaped being found (and possibly controlled) by the Chinese government.
I don't see anyway that we can be assured one way or another as to whether his answers are being filtered by the Chinese. Probably not. But the fact is that his answers certainly benefit the Chinese. He is really arguing the far left view that NSA should not be monitoring foreigners on a broad scale anymore that Americans. The Chinese would certainly support that view.
Others have made suggestions why, but it's pretty clear in his answer regarding Wikileaks, if you read his between the lines.
He believes that he is only disclosing things he believes are in the public interest. He is specifically withholding any information about "US operations against legitimate military targets".
Wikileaks dumped a bunch of unredacted information because someone screwed up. That wasn't their intent (the group, not necessarily Assange). Snowden appears to want to prevent this from occurring again.
Tweet: Edward, there is rampant speculation, outpacing facts, that you have or will provide classified US information to the Chinese or other governments in exchange for asylum. Have/will you?
Snowden: "This is a predictable smear that I anticipated before going public, as the US media has a knee-jerk "RED CHINA!" reaction to anything involving HK or the PRC, and is intended to distract from the issue of US government misconduct. Ask yourself: if I were a Chinese spy, why wouldn't I have flown directly into Beijing? I could be living in a palace petting a phoenix by now."
He seems quite certain that the Chinese are really "Good Guys". Question for Snowden that should be asked: What if the Chinese get to read that Thumb Drive in your pocket?
He probably went to China, not because he thinks they are good guys, but because they are another super power that won't bow to the US.
I don't think he is that naive. However, I do understand his rationale for going to China.
He wanted a place where he felt safe from the US Government until he could immunize himself from covert or diplomatic action. Earlier in he interview, he said that he wasn't sure that Iceland could stand up to pressure long enough for him to do so.
He's probably in the White House. Wouldn't surprise me if this is another 0bama 'false flag' to subvert America's credibility by sabotaging our foreign relationships and world standing, bringing us one notch closer to collapse. It's all about collapse. Then he can declare Martial Law oh goodie.
Well...so far he hasn't revealed anything he thinks the government is hiding not already known. All governments to this and they know they do.
This guy is doing far more harm then any help he believes...and fast showing he's more than a defector....by his actions he's showing his purpose is far more than just revealing Government spying....he's playing on a gameboard he hasn't a clue about.
I really have no doubt now this guy is way in over his head...and a traitor.
For all the "conservatives" here who want to carp about Snowden's tactics, they're completely missing the fact that Snowden has the press reporting, breathlessly, what he sources.
Snowden offered this information to the Washington Compost, and they dragged their feet. The Compost probably informed the government about the leak. Snowden took appropriate and prudent measures to a) keep himself alive, b) and get the information out, without the press interfering, c) keep the press "cycle" churning in his favor.
Obama is now paying a political price for this crap. Obama's approval dropped 8%, disapproval rose 9%, in a CNN poll, over the last month. And the biggest change is among YOUNG PEOPLE. Just as I predicted, young people live online. Young people know more about computing and social networking than the old farts in either party.
If it's a "false flag," it's costing Obama quite a bit in the polling.
If this ISN'T a 'false flag', how about, "Hey Snowden, does the NSA have the goods on 0bama?.. Is his birth certificate legit? Did he ever REALLY graduate to Columbia? Is he using Harrison J. Bounel's Social Security Number?"

The only event of its kind... this is where people come together to learn information about gluten sensitivity and celiac disease, speak to international experts in the field, and sample a variety ofgluten-free foods.
Let me tell you why we hold our annual Forum. One of the most common issues I run into with my patients is that they are not educated fully on gluten intolerance. This lack of education or understanding results in them making mistakes that cause serious repercussions on their health. Other times, the patient is a child and the lack of education on the part of their parent or parents is creating an adverse effect on their health. And still other times it is the relatives or friends of patients who themselves have a problem with gluten but who are choosing to ignore it, to the great concern of my patient who understands how serious the problem is.
So that's why it's important. It is an opportunity to get educated, speak with experts from around the world, meet like-minded people and enjoy delicious gluten-free food from local vendors.
It is a rare opportunity, and is only held once a year-- not to mention the fact that this Forum is the only one like it in all of California.
To top it off, 10% of the proceeds from this event will be donated to the University of Maryland Center for Celiac Research, so that we can get to the bottom of the problem once and for all! If increasing awareness about gluten and the effects it has on human health is something you want to support, then buy a ticket and come join us on Saturday, October 13th!
We look forward to seeing you, your friends and family there—and please forward this post and spread the word!
