Rupert Murdoch might step down as News Corp CEO: report News Corporation owner Rupert Murdoch might be replaced by Chief Operating Officer Chase Carey as CEO of the company, but still remain chairman, according to Bloomberg. People with knowledge of the situation said that whether or not the 80-year-old Australian media mogul steps down as CEO depends in part on his performance before U.K.'s parliament. Murdoch became embroiled in the phone hacking scandal thanks to his U.K. newspaper News of the World. The tabloid closed down after an investigation revealed it had participated in the phone hacking of celebrities, British politicians, the families of terrorist attack victims, dead ...

LulzSec hacks website of The Sun and publishes fake story about Murdoch’s death The infamous hacker group LulzSec made a comeback on Monday by hacking the website of the British tabloid The Sun, owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, and redirecting the frontpage to a fake story about Murdoch being found dead. The story read: "Rupert Murdoch, the controversial media mogul, has reportedly been found dead in his garden, police announce. Murdoch, aged 80, has said to have ingested a large quantity of palladium before stumbling into his famous topiary garden late last night, passing out in the early hours of the morning." The fake story was quickly taken down, but ...

The Romans had an expression for it: Nulla poena sine lege, no punishment without a law. But people sometimes forget that the opposite is also true: Without punishment for offenders, a law itself can die. The Justice Department recently announced that, of the 101 cases involving alleged illegal treatment of post-9/11 detainees by the CIA and its contractors, 99 were being closed. The remaining two, which involved deaths in custody, would continue to be investigated. The decision to drop virtually all these cases is based on a policy promulgated by Attorney General Eric Holder shortly after he took office. Reiterating this policy on June 30, Holder wrote that the Justice Department ...

The swift decline of UK media titan Rebekah Brooks LONDON (AP) — Rebekah Brooks dined with Britain's prime minister over Christmas and got a public show of support from her boss Rupert Murdoch before the cameras this month as allegations of phone hacking on her watch mounted. Now the 43-year-old U.K. media executive is a criminal suspect, her world of power and connections shattered by scandal. Brooks, who quit as head of Murdoch's British newspapers Friday, was arrested Sunday in a widening investigation into years of alleged phone hacking of hundreds of celebrities, politicians and even murder victims, as well as bribing police for information, at the now-shuttered tabloid ...

I have watched "we the people" go from confused, to dismayed, to angry, to "locked and loaded."Time to Reboot America - Jim O'Neill Saturday, July 16, 2011 "In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." "We have now sunk to a depth at which restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men." --George Orwell, author of "1984" (1903-1950) I originally titled this article as a query, "Time To Reboot America?," but after a little thought realized that there is no question--it is past time to reboot America. By "reboot" I mean that it is time for "we the ...

A Message To The Wall Street Captured, Bailout Loving, Military Industrial Political Class Regarding Cuts To Social Security - Take Your Austerity And Shove It Up Your Ass! Dear Esteemed Chairmen: No huge surprise here. What's unfortunate for you is that for years, even decades - going back to Ross Perot - the American people have been prepared for and willing to accept changes (means testing the wealthy) to Social Security. You, the politicians never gained the courage to ask, but I think for the most part the general public has been ready. And since I've been screaming about these issues my entire adult life, and have always pushed the ...

It should be kept in mind that the words nation or city-state may very easily be replaced by tribe, family, society, civilization or species. "Whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights." -- Thomas Jefferson in a Letter to Richard Price (8, January, 1789) The American working class is on the brink of extinction. A strong, financially secure, educated, informed and cosmopolitan middle class is a serious threat to tyranny and totalitarianism. That's why there has been a vigorous, systematic dismantling of ours since the Nixon ...

Federal Court Rules TSA Violated Law By Introducing Body Scanners

The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled today that the TSA violated federal law by rolling out radiation firing body scanners in airports without soliciting public comment. The court will allow use of the scanners to continue, however. A unanimous three-judge panel ruled that the TSA’s failure to provide notice and allow sufficient time for comment before adopting the technology as a primary passenger-screening tool was unlawful. “[M]uch public concern and media coverage have been focused upon issues of privacy, safety, and efficacy, each of which no doubt would have been the subject of many comments had the TSA seen fit to solicit comments upon a proposal to use [advanced imaging ...

Georgia cops bust 10-year-old’s lemonade stand Posted on 07.15.11By David EdwardsCategories: Featured, Say What? When three girls in Midway, Georgia set up their lemonade stand, they intended to raise enough money to go to the water park. But the ever-vigilant local police quickly identified the girls’ effort as criminal enterprise and shut them down. “It’s kind of crazy that we couldn’t sell lemonade,” 14-year-old Casity Dixon told WJCL. “It was fun, but we had to listen to the cops and shut it down.” The police chief and another officer discovered the stand only one day after it had opened. “They told us to shut it down,” 10 ...

Wired publishes the full Manning-Lamo chat logs

Yesterday -- more than a full year after it first released selected portions of purported chat logs between Bradley Manning and government informant Adrian Lamo (representing roughly 25% of the logs) -- Wired finally published the full logs (with a few redactions). From the start, Wired had the full chat logs and was under no constraints from its source (Lamo) about what it could publish; it was free to publish all of it but chose on its own to withhold most of what it received. Last June -- roughly a week after Wired's publication of the handpicked portions -- I reviewed the long and complex history between Lamo and Wired Editor Kevin Poulsen, documented the multiple, serious ...

Canadian Forces struggles to attract recruits from a community that sees soldiering as an economically unrewarding career choice More new Canadian citizens hail from China than almost any other country in the world, but military brass in Ottawa are facing an uphill battle in persuading a significantly greater proportion of Chinese-Canadians to embrace a career in the armed forces. Chinese-Canadians are among the fastest-growing visible minority groups in the country, and the People's Republic of China has ranked first or second as a source of new citizens in recent years. But getting Chinese Canadians to don a uniform isn't easy - part of the same challenge the military faces ...

The Greater Depression Is Upon Us
Post Date: 2011-07-14 18:40:23 by Esso
3 Comments
The phrase “Greater Depression” was coined by Doug Casey a decade or so back as a way of describing the economic crisis he foresaw as inevitable, and which is now materializing. Because I think it is important for every organization to constantly challenge its own assumptions, I’ve long acted as something of a devil’s advocate here at Casey Research. By constantly pushing our analysts to revisit their assumptions and calculations, it is my firm intention for us to spot the fork in the road that indicates it is time to shift strategies away from investments designed to do well in the face of a currency debasement and to something else. Being attentive to that fork in ...

De Wet Potgieter Young white South Africans are taking part in secret military training exercises on farms across the country, as part of an effort to defend themselves against “crime and bloodshed”. Over weekends and during school holidays, about 1000 young whites go into the bush for boot camps, where border war veterans train them in parade ground drill, handling of firearms and self-defence. “It is a matter of survival for our people,” said Col Franz Jooste, executive director of the Commando Corps. “This is in accordance with the laws of the land, and we are only training our people to protect themselves against crime and bloodshed.” The paramilitary ...

You look around while you’re waiting for the one or more of the latter-day luddites in front of you to write a check instead of swiping a credit card because a) they don’t believe in the 21st century or b) they never heard of it.

Southern Poverty Law Center calls Rand Paul "extremist" Posted on July 5, 2011 by Joseph Gerth The Southern Poverty Law Center has included Rand Paul on a list of "extremist" candidates in the 2010 elections. The list is largely populated by those affilliated with racist groups, anti-semitic organizations and those opposed to immigration. Paul is on the list because of his belief that businesses shouldn’t be forced to abide by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and his opposition to open housing laws intented to thwart discrimination. ...

A Libyan business delegation loyal to embattled ruler Muammar Gaddafi has travelled to Israel and held meetings with senior Israeli politicians. It was not immediately clear why the pro-Gaddafi delegation visited Israel but according to Israeli sources, the Libyans travelled to Israel in a bid to repair the tarnished image of their nation and ruler. The Libyan delegation of four businessmen has reportedly met with Israel's opposition leader Tzipi Livni, who had expressed support for anti-Gaddafi protesters when a popular uprising began against his rule. According to Israel Channel 2 News, the Libyans gave Livni a CD containing a personal recorded message from Gaddafi. They also ...

Flames rising from gas pipeline - 27 April A similar attack in April closed the pipeline for weeks An Egyptian pipeline supplying gas to Israel and Jordan was hit by a strong explosion, state media and officials said. Egypt's Mena news agency said the blast occurred near the town of al-Arish in the north of the Sinai peninsula.

The blast, which took place early on Tuesday, caused flames "up to 10 metres (32 ft) high", according to the report by Mena. The ...
