Civil Liberties in Obama's America
By Anthony Gregory
hat tip: Campaign for Liberty
The following is based on a talk delivered at the Free State Project's Liberty Forum in Nashua, New Hampshire, Saturday, March 20, 2010.
In the United States, civil liberties are seen as the province of the left. The ACLU, the Bar Association, the Democratic Party, people who err in favor of procedural protections for criminals and even terrorists — this is what tends to come to mind to conservatives who condemn civil liberties as a leftist interest, and to liberals who celebrate it as a great anchor of their political philosophy.
But what happens when the left-liberals are in charge of the executive branch, its police, its justice department, prosecutors and military courts? Predictably, conservatives fear the government will be soft on foreign and domestic villains. Liberals hold out hope that due process will be restored.
Libertarians, too, will often adopt this general lens through which to see political reality. Just as many progressive writers discussed the coming of Obama as a new dawn for the Bill of Rights — or, at least, the amendments they openly favor — many libertarians hoped that the Bush era of warrantless wiretapping, indefinite detention, torture and police statism would recede with the electoral victory of the Democrats.
But here we see the problem. For if the left are the most institutionally important guardians of civil liberties, then the ascent to power of one of their own will often mean a quieting of dissent. Left-liberals become caught up with economic policy, become corrupted, or simply tire of finding more reasons for their own partisan figurehead to be criticized, and look the other way. Just as Republican administrations can often implement domestic interventions with a freer hand — look at Bush's effortless Medicare expansion compared to how long it has taken for Obama to move on health care — Democrats can expect a less hostile climate in which to build up executive power to the detriment of civil liberty. And indeed, even if they have good intentions, they run against political pressure from the opposition accusing them of being soft with the police power. A left-liberal in office is the perfect storm for the destruction of our privacy and the rule of law. Just remember what Clinton did at Waco, or the erosion of liberty after the Oklahoma City Bombing, and the truth of this was confirmed long before January of last year when Obama took the throne.

Bikers to form a 'rolling road block' A590 protest
Last updated at 14:05, Tuesday, 19 June 2012
HUNDREDS of motorcycle enthusiasts will form a 'rolling road block' on the A590 this Sunday to demonstrate against new European legislation.
The event, being run by the Motorcycle Action Group – which has 86 groups spread across the country – will see riders heading out from Greenodd service station, travelling at a steady 40mph along the A590, A591 and then the A65 until they reach the regular biker meeting spot Devil's Bridge in Kirkby Lonsdale.
The protest is taking place to allow the riders to express their frustration over new proposals by the European Union (EU) to restrict motorcyclists' ability to modify new machines, right down to being able to choose their rear tyres.
The new rules will also curtail the sale of 'aftermarket' parts and add greatly to the cost of new bikes in the future.
"It's about the EU's legislations, they are unfair, but there are other issues as well," Paul Turner, the group's representative for Cumbria said.
"We are also protesting about all the different stages motorcyclists have to go through to get their licence."
Paddy Tyson is national campaigns manager for the Motorcycle Action Group. He said: "We haven't seen any evidence for the EU actions.
" They want all parts to be sealed so we can't alter the bikes ourselves. It's extreme."
The group staged a similar event back in September which was very successful.
"There was about 40,000 riders who took part across the country," Mr Turner said.
The group is hoping that this event will be just as successful.
"If it's a wet day, there won't be as many but if it's sunny we are expecting a couple of hundred on the A590. Lots of people have shown interest on our Facebook. There will be a lot of riders from Barrow," said Mr Turner.
There will be 12 demonstrations in total, with two in the north west, one on the M6 as well as the one on the A590.
The riders will set off from Greenodd at around 1pm on Sunday.

Have your say
Actually No 1, my road tax for my 650cc bike is more than twice as much as it is for my car. Also, there are no restrictions on whatever modifications I want to make to my car. The Government does not tell me what clothing I have to wear when driving my car. When I learnt to drive,there was no restriction on the power output of my car, whether that be the one I was learning in ( Golf GTI) or the one I drove after that, yet bikers are restricted by additional burden by people who have no idea what they are talking about and have provided no evidence to support the need for additional legislation. Hence the reason we are demonstrating.
I would like to know how many of the so called demonstrators really know what the cause is all about! Not just out on their mopeds to cause nause and have a laugh for the day!!!

The Rumba Crew
Drew Deters
Drew woke up one day to the realization that RumbaTime is more enjoyable than finance time. Before doning a suit everyday as a Vice President at a large firm in New York, he was traveling around the world as a professional cyclist. And yes, even in New York City he still loves to ride. His favorite watch is the Perry Nylon.
Jay Hartington
Surprise, Jay also worked in finance way back when, although he realized his passion early and went to work for Saks Fifth Avenue in their corporate development program. For the last several years he has been busy overseeing numerous buying and marketing functions as the owner of the luxury boutique Marissa Collections. So watches were only the next logical step. Jay loves tennis and in another life he will be the next Nadal. His favorite watch is the Mercer.
Joe Anto
And yes, Joe also realized that watches are more fun than finance. But before that Joe was a Senior Analyst and Director of Investments for a hedge fund based in New York. This role was preceded by several years at a private equity group, and somehow in between he found time to get an MBA from Columbia Business School. Joe likes to surf in his free time and wishes the office was based in Montauk. His favorite watch is the Delancey.

A Sydney court has been told a woman killed her former lover and mutilated his genitals because she thought he was a serial predator.
Jian Chen has pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of Xian Peng, 48, in February last year. Police say she used sleeping pills to spike her former partner's soup, and once Mr Peng was asleep, Chen bound his hands and feet and stabbed him a number of times in the neck and groin before mutilating his genitals.
In a sentencing hearing, the New South Wales Supreme Court heard Chen killed Mr Peng out of anger over the way he treated women and because she believed he was a serial predator who made women pregnant and extorted money from them.
Justice Monika Schmidt reserved her judgment.

New! Receive BART contract and procurement updates via email
Procurement activity as of May 23, 2013:
A Look Ahead: Upcoming Procurements
Contracts Out for Bid
Bids Received
Recently Awarded Contracts
Spring 2013 Notice to Small Business Owners
Dear Business Owner,
BART has embarked upon a Small Business Opportunity Program initiative. It was developed by the Office of Civil Rights and presented to the Board of Directors who approved its adoption and implementation within the District. BART Procurement is embarking upon implementing it in relation to the various procurements we conduct for services, construction, and supplies and material. In the last area noted, supplies and material, the Small Purchase Division will play a key role in this program. In completing any small purchase (a procurement under $100,000), the Purchase Division staff will endeavor to locate and procure the needed item from a Certified Small Business.
Where will the buyers go to find a Certified Small Business?
BART Purchasing will begin utilizing the California Department of General Services website to locate certified Small Businesses. The website is located at (www.dgs.ca.gov). This site contains a listing of firms that DGS has certified as Small Businesses. These are firms that had less than 14 million dollars per year in sales on average over three years and less than 100 employees. The registration process is quick and can be completed online.
What should you do?
If you are interested in possibly becoming a BART vendor - then go and REGISTER. If your business fits within the certification requirements and you are not yet certified with the California DGS Website, we would encourage you to go to the site and sign-up. It takes approximately 10-15 minutes and is a simple process. Once you are certified on the DGS site, BART may take advantage of your certification and seek you out to provide the various supplies and material we need to operate the District. Not only does this help us to attain our goal, but it has the potential to increase your revenues as a certified business since other government and city agencies also utilize the DGS website to search for small businesses to meet their needs.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation, we look forward to doing business with you,
BART Procurement Department

And this one has a giveaway with it!
One of my favourite online stores is Eternal Creation. Not just a place that sells kids' and adults' clothes and accessories - this is an amazing story about ethical trading. Australian designer, Frances Carrington, moved to northern India, at the foot of the Himalayas and began this online business (read Frances' story here, and a wonderful interview with her here). So inspiring!
I've purchased a few things from Eternal Creation so far - a few cute pieces of clothing for Abbey and a dress for myself.
Most recently, I bought Abbey these divine fairy wings, which arrived in a parcel postmarked from the Himalayas:
Be still my heart.
With thanks to Eternal Creation I have one of these gorgeous headscarfs to give away to one of my lovely readers:
(It's the same pattern as the one
I found the headscarf to be a great child's accessory on a recent beach holiday. It protected Abbey's head but didn't get in her way, and she could wear it in and out of the water.
The headscarf is for girls of any age - it is elasticised so it fits from babies right through to older kids (Abbey loved putting it on my head, and it even fit me!).
To enter, you need to do two things:
1. Make sure you're following my blog - so that I can track you down if you win! (I'd also love you to follow me on Twitter and Facebook, but I won't get too bossy...).
2. Head to Eternal Creation's website, have a flick through their amazing selection and come back to leave a comment telling me what you love on their site!
Easy! The giveaway closes on Wednesday night, 22nd September 2010, and I'll draw the winner at random on Thursday morning, 23rd September. Oh, and Australian residents only please!

Educate yourself about scholarships
3 April 2013
WHEN it comes to scholarships in Malaysia, they generally fall into one of two categories: corporate or government, or collegebased. Corporate or government scholarships are often a student's best bet to study overseas, as many of them cover not only tuition costs, but living, computer and travel expenses as well. At the same time, they encourage their scholars to pursue their degree overseas and those that are for SPM school-leavers cover pre-university programmes.

All Blacks coach Steve Hansen said Sunday he was confident key man Dan Carter would be fit to travel to Argentina for their next match, where they will look to wrap up the Rugby Championship in style.
A calf injury has kept the world's most prolific points scorer out of the last two matches, against Argentina and South Africa, but Hansen said that Carter was in contention for the clash with the Pumas.
"It's too early to say yes or no at this point, but we're hoping he will be (able to play). He's reasonably confident so that's a good sign," Hansen said.
The All Blacks' 21-11 win over the Springboks on Saturday kept them unbeaten after four rounds and they will take home the championship title with a game to spare if they beat Argentina on September 30.
Even if Carter has not been cleared by medical staff by the time the team departs next Saturday, Hansen indicated it was possible he would still be taken, with Beauden Barrett added as a fly-half along with Aaron Cruden.
"We're only allowed to take 28 but there's ways and means on getting him on the plane in the 28," he said, adding Barrett could be included at the expense of either a prop or loose forward.
Although the All Blacks have proved they can win without Carter - they have won their last 14 matches and Carter has missed eight of them including the World Cup final last year - they have missed him on the field.
Current fly-half Cruden has yet to develop Carter's unflustered ability to navigate the side around the field, but Hansen said the understudy "got some great, valuable learning and will grow" from the match against the Springboks.
Apart from Carter, Hansen said there were no other injury concerns.

I am new to the forum and have been learning a lot reading the articles and threads here. I love Tahitian pearls and have been looking for a strand for a while now. The last few times I was in Hawaii, I have been looking but could not find one that I like and fit my budget. I recently bought a strand of multicolor online and the color is very nice.
According to what I've read, AAA graded can still have pimples and some blemishes. Does that mean some of the pearls can still be off-round? When I inspect closely, some of the pearls are off-round, but that does not matter that much. However, they have more than just pimples. I guess you would say lines that look like scratches. I can't tell if they are imperfections or actually have been scratched while being threaded, drilled, etc. Maybe I never looked close enough when I've seen other pearl strands at retails stores. I've only seen pimples on most strands I've seen in person, but not lines. Can someone help me? Thank you.

text: Sergey Brin's search for Parkinson's cure 06 July 10 by Thomas Goetz Tweet Nathan Fox This article was taken from the August issue of Wired magazine. Be the first to read Wired's articles in print before they're posted online, and get your hands on loads of additional content by subscribing onlineSeveral evenings a week, after a day's work at Google headquarters in Mountain View, California, Sergey Brin drives up the road to a local pool. There, he changes into swimming trunks, steps out on to a three-metre springboard, looks at the water below, and dives. Brin is competent at all four types of springboard diving -- forward, back, reverse and inward. Recently, he's been working on his twists, which have been something of a struggle. But overall, he's not bad; in 2006 he competed in the master's division world championships. (He's quick to point out he came sixth out of six in his event.) The diving is the sort of challenge that Brin, who has also dabbled in yoga, gymnastics and acrobatics, is drawn to: equal parts physical and mental exertion. "The dive itself is brief but intense," he says. "You push off really hard and then have to twist right away. It does get your heart rate going." There's another benefit as well: with every dive, Brin gains a little bit of leverage -- leverage against a risk, looming somewhere out there, that some day he may develop the neurodegenerative disorder Parkinson's disease. Buried deep within each cell in Brin's body -- in a gene called LRRK2, which sits on the 12th chromosome -- is a genetic mutation that has been associated with higher rates of Parkinson's. Not everyone with Parkinson's has an LRRK2 mutation; nor will everyone with the mutation get the disease. But it does increase the chance that Parkinson's will emerge sometime in the carrier's life to between 30 and 75 per cent. (By comparison, the risk for an average American is about one per cent.) Sergey Brin himself splits the difference and figures that his DNA gives him about 50-50 odds.That's where exercise comes in. Parkinson's is a poorly understood disease, but research has associated a handful of behaviours with lower rates of disease, starting with exercise. One study found that young men who work out have a 60 per cent lower risk. Coffee, likewise, has been linked to a reduced risk. For a time, Brin drank a cup or two a day, but he can't stand the taste of the stuff, so he switched to green tea. ("Most researchers think it's the caffeine, though they don't know for sure," he says.) Smokers also seem to have a lower chance of developing Parkinson's, but Brin has not opted to take up the habit. With every pool workout and every cup of tea, he hopes to diminish his odds, to adjust his algorithm by counteracting his DNA with environmental factors."This is all off the cuff," he says, "but let's say that based on diet, exercise and so forth, I can get my risk down by half, to about 25 per cent." The steady progress of neuroscience, Brin figures, will cut his risk by around another 50 per cent -- bringing his overall chance of getting Parkinson's to around 13 per cent. It's all guesswork, mind you, but the way that he delivers the numbers and explains his rationale is utterly convincing.Brin, of course, is no ordinary 36-year old. As half of the duo that founded Google, he's worth about $15 billion. That bounty provides additional leverage: since learning that he carries an LRRK2 mutation, Brin has contributed some $50 million to Parkinson's research, enough, he figures, to "really move the needle". In light of the uptick in research into drug treatments and possible cures, Brin adjusts his overall risk again, down to "somewhere under ten per cent". That's still ten times the average, but it goes a long way to counterbalancing his genetic predisposition.It sounds so pragmatic, so obvious, that you can almost miss a striking fact: many philanthropists have funded research into diseases they themselves have been diagnosed with; but Brin is likely to be the first who, based on a genetic test, began funding scientific research in the hope of escaping a disease in the first place.His approach is notable for another reason. This isn't just another variation on venture philanthropy -- the voguish application of business-school practices to scientific research. Brin is after a different kind of science altogether. Most Parkinson's research, like much of medical research, relies on the classic scientific method: hypothesis, analysis, peer review, publication. Brin proposes a different approach, one driven by computational muscle and staggeringly large data sets. It's a method that draws on his algorithmic sensibility -- and Google's fabled faith in computing power -- with the aim of accelerating the pace and increasing the potential of scientific research. "Generally the pace of medical research is glacial compared to what I'm used to in the internet," Brin says. "We could be looking in lots of places and collecting lots of information. And if we see a pattern, that could lead somewhere." In other words, Brin is proposing to bypass centuries of scientific epistemology in favour of a more Googley kind of science. He wants to collect data first, then hypothesise, and then find the patterns that lead to answers. And he has the money and the algorithms to do it.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra and team president Pat Riley took a moment in the locker room late Wednesday night to give LeBron James the game ball and recognize his latest record.
Players shouted and huddled in the centre of the room. Then, as Spoelstra said, "Everybody took a shot at him -- a punch, a jab, an elbow, whatever they could get in before he started hitting back."
Just a small sampling of the hurt James has put on the rest of the NBA for the last decade.
James became the youngest player in league history to score 20,000 points and also surpassed 5,000 assists on a milestone night, leading the Heat to a 92-75 victory over the undermanned Golden State Warriors.
On a road trip that has had more bad news than good, James rewrote the headlines and the record books. He finished with 25 points, 10 assists and seven rebounds in just 30 minutes to grab his latest slice of history.
"It means everything," James said. "It means a lot. First of all, like I continue to say, it means I've been able to be healthy. To be out on the floor and do what I love to do, I love the game of basketball and I try to give everything to the game. And hopefully it continues to give back to me."
James eclipsed both marks before halftime, helped Miami go ahead by 34 points in the third quarter and allowed Spoelstra to rest his starters -- without debate this time -- for the fourth. Dwyane Wade added 15 points, eight rebounds and six assists and Mario Chalmers scored 15 for the Heat, who had lost three of their last four away from home.
David Lee had 12 points and 11 rebounds and Jarrett Jack scored 16 in place of Stephen Curry, who sprained his twice surgically repaired right ankle during Golden State's morning practice. The team said X-rays were negative, and Warriors coach Mark Jackson said he doesn't expect Curry to be out long.
The Warriors, who upset the Heat 97-95 in Miami on Dec. 12, lost consecutive games for only the third time this season. With centre Andrew Bogut already out indefinitely recovering from left ankle surgery, Curry's absence turned out to be too much to overcome against the defending NBA champions.
"Disappointing, but we faced a team that remembered what took place in South Beach and came with a mindset to make a point, individually and collectively," Jackson said. "That's what great players do."
James and Wade just overwhelmed the Warriors from the start.
Wade lobbed an alley-oop from halfcourt that James finished with two hands early in the first quarter. James hit Wade slicing down the lane for a dunk moments later for his 5,000th career assist, and James made a 3-pointer after falling hard on his right elbow a play earlier to give the Heat a 23-14 lead.
James, who made 11 of 20 shots from the floor, surpassed the scoring mark when he dribbled from the wing and pulled up in the lane to make an off-balance jumper with 2:45 remaining in the second quarter to give him 20,001 career points. He needed 18 points entering the game to become the 38th NBA player to reach the milestone.
James said he knew before the shot he was a point away from the milestone.
"The best part about it is I was in a rhythm, too, so it wasn't one of those forced shots," he said. "I was able to get the switch on David Lee and get to the elbow and make a shot. It's pretty cool."
Previously, the youngest player to score 20,000 points was Lakers star Kobe Bryant, who got there when he was 29 years, 122 days old. James was 28 years, 17 days on Wednesday.
"He probably would've had it sooner if he didn't decide to come down here to South Beach," Wade said. "It's just a testament to him as a player."
James already was the youngest player in league history to win Rookie of the Year, record a triple-double, score 1,000 points, score 10,000 points and win MVP honours at an All-Star game. Only Bryant, Wilt Chamberlain (29 years, 134 days) and Michael Jordan (29 years, 326 days) reached the latest milestone before turning 30.
James also is the 13th player with 20,000 points and 5,000 assists. The only active players to reach both marks are Bryant and Boston's Kevin Garnett.
"That's a big-time moment," Spoelstra said. "He's a special guy. He's a special player. He's a once-in-a-generational type of player."
With the long-awaited record out of the way, James and Wade switched roles and opened the second half almost the same way the duo began the first.
Wade tossed an alley-oop just inside halfcourt to James while two Warriors defenders watched the three-time NBA MVP soar for the slam, part of a scintillating 26-6 surge filled with highlights to open the third quarter and put the Heat ahead 78-44.
In a 104-97 loss at Utah on Monday, Spoelstra sat Wade and played Chris Bosh for just 40 seconds in the fourth quarter in a decision that had been critiqued and questioned for the past two days by fans and national media. The Heat sliced a 19-point deficit to two without both before falling short.
This time, the Big Three watched the final 12 minutes smiling from the bench.
"Hopefully," Spoelstra said, "we can put to rest everything that happened the other night."
NOTES: In terms of games played, James is the seventh-fastest to join the 20,000 club. Wednesday was his 726th regular-season game. Chamberlain needed only 499 games to score 20,000 points. ... The Warriors fell to 13-3 against the Eastern Conference this season. The two other losses came against Orlando. ... Heat backup F Shane Battier returned after missing two games with a hamstring injury. He had two rebounds and finished 0 for 3 from 3-point range in 10 minutes.

Good, But not great
I listen to this every day. It has two optical ports which helps in addition to a 3.5mm audio jack. For the 1500 it's good for what it is. Compared to other surround systems that bose has for 2500+ you can see a clear difference. Basically if you want to keep cost down, get the sound bar. If you want the best surround sound for your setup, get a traditional bose 5.1 system.

In a world of crime, murder, and everything bad The government does not have time to handle certain people. These people just disappear, are never seen of again. Murderers, suicidal people, etc. They can all be found here.
Years before the government decided to test their new project, and sent 25 major criminals to an island, one that was only heard about in rumors on the computer, it was called No Man's Island. These criminals were never seen or heard of again. Then years later, a mass number of suicidal people disappeared, they awoke on an Island. An island that was only heard of on the internet as Suicide Island. Whether these two islands are the same no one knows. During their expunge of these people, the government would also throw people on this island that they want to just disappear, because they either knew something, or were a danger to the grip they had on the other people.
Survival, that's the main goal. Survive, or be eatin alive. There are many abandoned buildings, and lots of dead corpses turned to skeletons over the years.You can either choose to survive, on your own or in a large group. Or choose to not survive, to see how things turn out. Your behavior is your own choice, your past is also your own choice. With many twists and turns, it'll be a surprise what each day brings.

Stephen Shames' Bronx Boys
Stephen Shames spent over twenty years photographing young boys growing up in the Bronx. Although the project started as a simple photojournalism assignment, Shames quickly became fascinated by the neglected New York borough and continued to document the vibrant streets.
