  3. Mainstream news not mentioning much about Iran. The hype about how there could be a terrorism plot. It just seems a bit fishy.
  4. Like a nuclear attack and it's blamed on iran? 1). Murder its own citizens using an explosive device 2) Destroy its credibility as a safe place to visit, work, to business for years to come (in the middle of a recession) 3). Potentially kill large numbers of foreign nationals - with all the implications that has
  5. As part of the Home Office's communications data bill, internet service providers (ISPs) and mobile phone companies will be obliged to collect communications records and keep them for a year. The government has insisted that the actual content of messages won't be stored, but until now it has not been clear how communications companies will be able to separate content from "header data", such as the sender and recipient of a message, and the date it was sent. It has now emerged that the Home Office has held meetings with the UK's largest ISPs and mobile network operators, and has given them information about the hardware which companies will have to use to monitor traffic flowing through their systems. When an individual uses a webmail service such as Gmail, for example, the entire webpage is encrypted before it is sent. This makes it impossible for ISPs to distinguish the content of the message. Under the Home Office proposals, once the Gmail is sent, the ISPs would have to route the data via a government-approved "black box" which will decrypt the message, separate the content from the "header data", and pass the latter back to the ISP for storage. Dominic Raab, a Conservative MP who has criticised the bill, said: "The use of data mining and black boxes to monitor everyone's phone, email and web-based communications is a sobering thought that would give Britain the most intrusive surveillance regime in the west. But, many technical experts are raising equally serious doubts about its feasibility and vulnerability to hacking and other abuse." A representative of the ISPs Association said: "We understand that government wants to move with the times, and we want to work with them on that. But this is a massive project. We'd rather they told us what they want to achieve, then sit down with us to work out how." "Our other main concern with this is speed. If you're having to route all traffic through one box, it's going to cut down on connection speeds. The hardware can only look at a certain amount of traffic per second - if lots of streams from the BBC iPlayer are going through it, for example, how is it going to handle the traffic?" A Home Office spokesman said - "We have not issued any hardware or software specifications. "The communications data bill is designed to allow the police to maintain their capability to catch criminals and protect the public as technology changes and people use more modern communications. Under this programme the emphasis is to work with industry to determine the best way to achieve this. "The legislation is currently being scrutinised by parliament. Once it has been passed will we work with companies on how to best collect and store communications data, but not the content." http://www.channel4.com/news/black-boxes-to-monitor-all-internet-and-phone-data
  6. Yohan Blake ran the fastest 100 metres in the world this year as he and Usain Bolt booked their places at London 2012 in the Jamaican National Championships and Olympic trials. All eyes were on Olympic champion and world record-holder Bolt in the final in Kingston, but it was world champion Blake who stole his thunder, running 9.75 seconds to best his rival's time of 9.76 set in Rome last month. Bolt was second in in 9.86, while former world record-holder Asafa Powell was just behind him in 9.88 to book the third spot on the team, although he reportedly limped away from the track. This was the first time Blake and Bolt had faced each other since Blake took the world title Daegu last year when the Olympic champion false started. All eight men in the final met the Olympic A standard. Defending women's 100m champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce broke the national record as she won her final in 10.70, which was also a world-leading time. She was joined on the team by Athens and Beijing 200m winner Veronica Campbell-Brown who ran 10.82. Kerron Stewart, who was joint second in Beijing, finished third while the other woman to take a share of silver in 2008, Sherone Simpson, could only finish fourth. Olympic 400m hurdles champion Melaine Walker also won her final, running 54.77. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/othersports/athletics/9366537/Olympic-trials-2012-Usain-Bolt-beaten-by-Yohan-Blake-in-Jamaican-100m.html
  7. NEWARK — Acclaimed hip-hop artist Lauryn Hill took responsibility for failing to file three years of taxes on income of $1.8 million and pleaded guilty to tax evasion charges today in federal court. The South Orange native could face up to three years in prison and $75,000 in fines for her offenses and will be sentenced in late November. Hill's attorney Nathan Hockman said the star had been targeted by the federal government because of her celebrity status. "There are many people in society who fail to file their taxes on time who only face civil liability," Hockman said. "They chose Ms. Hill in particular because of who she was." Hill spoke little at her hearing today and stood attentively with her arms crossed in front of her chest when the judge first addressed her. She appeared in a white button-down shirt, blue blazer and long coral skirt. She did, however, take issue with two statements made by U.S. District Judge Michael Shipp that she discussed in whispers with Hockman at length. Hill raised her concerns with Hockman when the judge asked her if anyone had forced her to enter a guilty plea either directly or indirectly, and again when the judge ordered her to undergo mental health counseling as directed by pre-trial intervention services. Through her attorney, Hill asked the judge to clarify what he meant by the words 'directly' and 'directed.' "Ms. Hill is very particular about language," Hockman said. "Language is very important to Ms. Hill." Earlier this month, Hill posted a lengthy explanation for failing to file her taxes on a personal website. Hill wrote that she withdrew from society to keep herself and her family safe from pop culture's "climate of hostility, false entitlement, manipulation, racial prejudice, sexism and ageism." Hill is not the fist celebrity to run into tax trouble. Martha Stewart, Lindsey Lohan and Al Pacino have also been cited for failure to pay federal taxes. Hill rose to fame as a member of the Fugees in the 1990s. Her debut solo album, "The Mideducation of Lauryn Hill," sold more than 10 million copies after its release in 1998 and won five Grammy awards. http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2012/06/singer_lauryn_hill_pleads_guil.html

  13. A woman who made a sex tape with her teenage son after they were reunited after 15 years apart claims their relationship was not incest - but a case of 'genetic attraction'. Mistie Rebecca Atkinson, 32, was sentenced to four years and eight months behind bars in Napa County Superior Court, California on Wednesday. It came after she was found in a Ukiah, California motel room with the 16-year-old boy, who had recorded his mother giving him oral sex on his phone. Authorities also recovered nude photos Atkinson had sent him after tracking him down through Facebook. She had not seen him for 15 years. But in a letter to the court, Atkinson, claimed she did not consider it incest, the Napa Valley Register reported. 'I don't feel like I should have the charge of incest because there is something called genetic attraction that is a very powerful [phenomenon] that happens to 50 [per cent] of people becoming reunited with a long-lost relative,' she wrote. Little research has been carried out on genetic sexual attraction. But some psychologists say family members who are separated for a long time could become sexually attracted to each other when they meet as adults. She reportedly had no contact with her son until last year when she began sending him inappropriate messages on the social networking site. The boy was living with his father at the time and was aware Atkinson was his mother. She did not have custody rights to her him. 'It appears she hadn't had any contact with the son for 15 years' a source told the New York Daily News. 'She contacted him late last year via Facebook and was sending him messages inappropriately.' The sexual contact began after police responded to domestic violence reports between Atkinson and her live-in boyfriend in Nice, California. The relationship came to light when the boy's relatives reported the inappropriate Facebook messages between him and Atkinson. Atkinson and the teen were found in a motel room on March 2. Police found videos on the boy’s phone from a month earlier showing Atkinson performing oral sex on the teenager and having sex with him. Atkinson also sent nude pictures of herself to him from her phone, court documents said. They had also talked about running away together. In May, she had pleaded no contest to incest, oral copulation, lewd contact with a minor and distribution of lewd material to a minor. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2163376/Mistie-Atkinson-Mom-sex-tape-son-16-claims-just-case-genetic-attraction.html?ICO=most_read_module

  15. Facebook has started rolling out a tool that allows users to change their comments on the site after posting them. Many people find that they have left a glaring typo or mistake in a comment on someone's Facebook status update. Facebook knows that, and so has now introduced the ability to edit comments on the site. According to reports, this tool will be available to all Facebook's 900m+ members over the next couple of days. The new editing option, long called for by the site's users, only applies to comments, rather than status updates. http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tech/news/a389074/facebook-rolls-out-the-ability-to-edit-user-comments.html
