Boing Boing: Princeton researchers show how to steal an election with Diebold machines

If you have any doubts about this being possible just go and watch the video .  They claim it takes about a minute to infect a machine.
So how many stolen elections are due to Dieblod? Can we sue them for the last 6 years of crooks and liers in office and massive loss of human life that this has caused? Sounds like a good class action suit to me…

A damn good reason to boycott EMI!  Asshats!

Wonder if anyone has boycottemi.com yet? Yep, looks like EMI owns it. They also own boycott-emi.com, boycottemi.org, boycott-emi.org but boycott-emi.net and boycottemi.net are both open should someone want to go at them.

Boing Boing: Is it legal to look at the Web in Canada?

Total stupidity.  Teh whole freaking world is going DRM nuts.  Now by using DRM someone (?) is either going to charge all the Canadian schools a fee to use the internet or will kindly LET the poor little kiddies use it under a blanket educational license.  Soon ALL the data are gonna be belonging to someone and everyone will have to pay to see anything and have to use special equipment or software to do so because someone may look at WORDS without paying.

Salt Lake Tribune – Salt Lake sounds off in protest and support

Salt Lake Tribune – Salt Lake sounds off in protest and support
A crowd of thousands cheered Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson for calling President Bush a “dishonest, war-mongering, human-rights violating president” whose time in office would “rank as the worst presidency our nation has ever had to endure.”
The group – including children and elderly and some hailing from throughout Utah – then marched to the federal building Wednesday to deliver a copy of a symbolic indictment against the president and Congress for abuse of power and failure to uphold the U.S. Constitution.

It sounds like Rocky Anderson needs to think about running for President.  He sure has Bush’s number and called him on it!  Give em hell, Rocky!

The Blog | Flavia Colgan: In the Senate, Double Secret Shenanigans | The Huffington Post
In the movie Animal House, in his incessant quest to get rid of the nuisance of the Delta fraternity, the evil Dean Wormer puts them on “Double Secret Probation.” It was a completely made-up term, which just made his desperation even more hilarious. For the past few weeks in the United States Senate, some unnamed Senator (who we now know to be the Republican Senator from Alaska, Ted Stevens) has used something called a “secret hold” to kill some common sense legislation.
It would be as funny as what Dean Wormer did, if it wasn’t an actual Senate procedure, and if the bill wasn’t of such importance.

When a US of A  Senator (Republican from Alaska, Ted Stevens) uses Animal House’s Dean Wormer as a role model and tries to emulate him in the Senate there is a MAJOR problem in this country.  Time to get the asshats out of office at any price!  Too damn bad John is dead…

Way to go!  A court that sided with the kid instead of the school or the government.

Of course this isn’t reported on a US of Censorship site but is from a Austrailian news site.

CNN.com – High court to get ‘Bong Hits 4 Jesus’ case? – Aug 29, 2006

So, from this totally disjointed 😉 article, is Starr working for the kid or the school or who? Some writer or editor needs to go back to school and learn how to put a story together.

Personally I think if the kid is off school grounds and it is not during school hours he should be able to do what he wants. Seems that the principal was totally out of line. Wasn’t there and all I have seen of this is this crappy article, so…
