Making High Quality A/V Cables

Sunday, July 31st, 2005

In this episode we teach you how to make the same cables that most broadcast engineers use for their own projects and talk about why they don’t buy those expensive cables at the stores. We show you the tools and how to use them so that you can become the cable making professional you were meant to be. Finally, we show you how to organize the rat’s nest behind the TV for that professional look and a broadcast quality signal.

Condoleezza In the Middle

Friday, July 29th, 2005

It was September 2002, and then-National Security Advisor, now-Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was fastening on CNN perhaps the most memorable and frightening single link in the Bush regime’s chain of lies propagandizing the war on Iraq. Behind her carefully planted one-liner with its grim imagery was the whole larger hoax about Saddam Hussein possessing or about to acquire weapons of mass destruction, a deception as blatant and inflammatory as claims of the Iraqi dictator’s ties to Al Qaeda.

Rice’s demagogic scare tactic was also very much part of the tangled history of alleged Iraqi purchases of uranium from Niger, the fabrication leading to ex-Ambassador Joseph Wilson’s now famous exposé of the fraud, the administration’s immediate retaliatory “outing” of Wilson’s wife Valerie Plame as a CIA operative, and now the revelation that the President’s supreme political strategist Karl Rove and Vice President Dick Cheney’s Chief of Staff Lewis Libby were involved in that potentially criminal leak – altogether the most serious political crisis Bush has faced. In fact, though her pivotal role has been missed entirely – or deliberately ignored – in both the media feeding frenzy and the rising political clamor, Condoleezza Rice was also deeply embroiled in the Niger uranium-Plame scandal, arguably as much as or more so than either Rove or Libby.

Big Brother Nixes Happy Hour

Friday, July 29th, 2005

So now employers have the right to tell you who you can and cannot associate with on your free time???

It is a regular pastime for co-workers to chat during a coffee break, at a union hall, or over a beer about workplace issues, good grilling recipes, and celebrity gossip. Yet a recent ruling by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) allows employers to ban off-duty fraternizing among co-workers, severely weakening the rights of free association and speech, and violating basic standards of privacy for America’s workers.

Science@NASA J-Track 3D

Thursday, July 28th, 2005

We hope you enjoy J-Track 3-D. It should appear in its own window and begin loading a database of over 500 satellites.

What you will see (assuming your system supports this JAVA applet) is a plot in 3-dimensions showing the position of these satellites. Be sure to try the “Satellite” pull-down menu to choose which satellite you wish to view.

Pentagon Blocks Release of Abu Ghraib Images: Here’s Why

Thursday, July 28th, 2005

I suspect that the images would make it more difficult as to who the real terrorists are. I still predict that the images will slowly begin being leaked.

So what is shown on the 87 photographs and four videos from Abu Ghraib prison that the Pentagon, in an eleventh hour move, blocked from release this weekend? One clue: Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld told Congress last year, after viewing a large cache of unreleased images: “I mean, I looked at them last night, and they’re hard to believe.” They show acts “that can only be described as blatantly sadistic, cruel and inhumane,” he added.

biggest spamming asshole in the US’s Address and Name

Saturday, July 23rd, 2005

Do you keep on getting those emails like this:
“CHARITY CONTACT:

..email your web site to 4,600,000+ opt-in email addresses for free…

http://www.optin2millions.net”

from some address like:
cragetlinsont@yyhmail.com

Well, it really belongs to this guy. And why isn’t the government going after this guy for violating the spam act.
I actually called this guy and asked him why he did this and his reply was “just to F**K eith you people”.
We should all turn the tables on this jerk and let him have a taste of his own statements.

Shown here, possibly for the first time is the person behind 75% of all spam received here. Probably one of the biggest robototic thieves on the internet. There is no telling how much damage this person does to the internet and he must be stopped and jailed according to the spam act”
He apparently knows how to spoof any address and uses many disquised names to send you out his crap.
Everyone should send this guy tons(gigs and gigs) of just plain old crap to his email box and show him what it is like to receive HIS crap.

You should also notify the domain name service of his violating your rights to privacy. He sells each and every one of yor names for profit and YOU, my friends, should be receiving that money, not this jerk. If anyone should be allowed to make money on YOUR name/address/email address/domain name, YOU should.
Let him know about your abuse……….
send him a registered letter asking for payment of a few thousand dollars for the millions of times he has used your name, and other private information. And when he doesn’t pay, file a claim in claims court and stick him with a lien on all of his property until you are paid.

YES….you CAN fight back at bastards like this………………

Defense Department Refuses to Turn Over Abuse Photographs; Asks to File Secret Brief Justifying Refusal

Friday, July 22nd, 2005

What the F#$& are they trying to hide this time. I predict that some of them will appear anyway, although not in the MSM.

Today was the day the government was supposed to process and redact photographs and videos relating to the abuse and torture of prisoners held abroad. Raising new arguments on the eve of its deadline, the United States government refused to release the materials to the public. The photographs and videos were to be processed for eventual release as a result of a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union and other organizations.
