clipper's remarks: (CNN) -- An owner of a 7-Eleven convenience store in Fort Hood, Texas, said Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan came in for coffee and hashbrowns most mornings, including the morning he allegedly shot dozens of soldiers.

Surveillance video from the store obtained by CNN shows a man who, according to the store owner, is Hasan at the cashier's counter at about 6:20 a.m. Thursday (7:20 a.m. ET) -- about seven hours before the mass shooting -- carrying a beverage and dressed in traditional Arab garb.

As more information becomes available on shooting suspect Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan; can the shooting spree be considered a terrorist attack on the base? Gen. Barry McCafferty said yes on Friday night. There were many red flags leading up to the shooting at Ft. Hood.

"This is a story that is going to get worse," said Gen. Barry McCafferty , U.S. Army (Ret.) on CNN's 360 . This is a domestic terrorist attack. He gave off signs of disloyalty to his own county," the general said.

Dr. Val Finnel, a student that went to class with suspect Hasan, commented on CNN that Hasan talked about the war in Iraq as a war on Islam, at a presentation he made during their environmental class in 2007.

'Three people are involved. That, by definition, means it is a conspiracy.'

The alleged shooter received his medical degree from the military’s Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Md., in 2001 and is a graduate of Virginia Tech. Early on Thursday, he showed no signs of worry or stress when he stopped at 7-Eleven for his daily breakfast of hash browns, said Jeannie Strickland, the store's manager. "He came in (Thursday) morning just like normal," she said, "nothing weird, nothing out of the ordinary." [This is looking more and more psyops-ish by the second. --LRP]

CCTV Surveillance Cameras Don't Reassure, They Frighten

clipper's remarks: Britain's network of 4.2 million surveillance cameras cause more fear

Clip Source: bps-research-digest.blogspot.com

People are no more fearful of crossing a street with a young male skinhead in it than they are a street with a smartly dressed woman present, unless, that is, a CCTV camera is overhead.

The new finding appears to undermine one of the key justifications for Britain's network of 4.2 million surveillance cameras: that they provide reassurance to the public. It seems that the sight of a CCTV camera can have the opposite effect, cueing the perception of a threat.

CCTV cameras may not be the only form of crime-fighting paraphernalia that can backfire by cueing a sense of threat. In a North American study conducted in the late 90's John Schweitzer and colleagues found that a plethora of "Neighbourhood Watch" signs increased people's fear of crime.

S.C. man gets 3 years for sex with horse

Second time 50-year-old caught having sex with the same animal

CONWAY, S.C. - A man caught having sex with a horse in a South Carolina stable has been sentenced to three years in prison.

Multiple media outlets report that Rodell Vereen was sentenced Wednesday after pleading guilty to buggery. A judge also ordered Vereen to get counseling and stay away from the Lazy B stables when he's released.

Authorities charged Vereen, 50, after a woman set up a surveillance camera and caught him on tape having sex with her horse in July. Horse owner Barbara Kenley said she had noticed her 21-year-old horse Sugar was acting strangely. She also noticed things had been moved around near the horse's stall at her stables in Longs, about 20 miles northeast of Myrtle Beach.

She said she staked out the stable and caught Vereen sneaking into the barn days later, holding him at shotgun point until police arrived.

Government Intimidation Destroys a Free Society

By Tom DeWees

For years I have been issuing warnings about the growing government surveillance state. REAL ID and E-Verify have been sold as weapons necessary to stop illegal immigration and the threat of terrorism. Now, Congress says it has improved those weapons by creating the PASS Act.

Yet, while insisting these straight jackets for all citizens are needed to protect us, the government has refused to do the one thing that would actually reduce these threats - secure the borders. Homelandsecuritynewswire.com reports that the government has set a goal of capturing only 29% of people and goods entering our borders illegally. That's it. As I have warned, the mindset of the government is that it's much more efficient to put us all in chains than to try to actually catch the bad guys.

The High Price of Nuclear Waste

clipper's remarks: The federal government agreed in 1982 to provide a permanent site to deposit nuclear waste...and now, just like that, it's off the table & closed. MORE incompetency.

The High Price of Nuclear Waste

While closing Yucca Mountain made for good campaign politics in Nevada, it leaves the U.S. with nowhere to store a growing stockpile of radioactive waste. Roughly 70,000 tons of waste sits in temporary pools and dry storage canisters in 100 reactor sites around the U.S. -- each one requiring an army of guards and millions in electronic surveillance.

the Obama administration is pulling the plug on Yucca Mountain, the federal government's proposed storage facility for America's nuclear waste.

"They have no solution to the problem. They've taken tens of billions of dollars from rate-payers and now they are talking about scraping the whole thing," said Leslie Paige of Citizens Against Government Waste.

Energy Secretary Stephen Chu told Congress earlier this year that Yucca Mountain is "not an option,"

the Nevada Facility told Fox News that the site is closed.

Steps Toward The American Police State are Always Tried-Out in Britain First

I was sent the now notorious “police spotter card” through the post. It’s an official laminated card for “police eyes only” and labelled as coming from “CO11 Public Order Intelligence Unit”. The card contained the photographs of 24 anti-arms trade protesters, unnamed but lettered A to X. My picture appeared as photo H. You can imagine my reaction at finding I was the subject of a secret police surveillance process … I was delighted. I phoned my agent and told him I was suspect H. He replied: “Next year we’ll get you top billing … suspect A.”

This kind of highly confidential document – pictured above – is rarely seen by the public.

These so-called “spotter cards” are issued by police to identify individuals they consider to be potential troublemakers because they have appeared at a number of demonstrations.

Worst. Parking. Job. Ever... but victim gets new Hyundai

The Richmond Hill, Ont. woman casually drove her black BMW X5 into the club’s parking lot, glided into a parking spot and slowed to a crawl. Then, faster than one can holler, “Monster Jam!”, Tripta inexplicably buries the gas pedal. The obese Bimmer goes on to mount two compact cars, Gravedigger-style.

However, the escapade was caught on the club’s surveillance camera. The resulting video has emerged as ao online video hit the world over, receiving such comments as, “Ich bin heute streichel bedürftig wer will chatn oder telefnieren” from the likes of SexiiAnna91.

Although the BMW emerged apparently unscathed, one of the cars it ran over – a 2004 Hyundai Elantra – was “extensively damaged” as they say down at the collision reporting centre.

And there’s a happy epilogue to the story. Hyundai Canada decided to embrace “a random act of kindness” by presenting Jamison with a brand new 2010 Elantra.

NSA to store yottabytes of surveillance data in Utah megarepository (update: not so much)

There’s an interesting article in the current New York Review of books (predictably, a book review) detailing the history of the National Security Agency, that shadowy power-behind-the-power to which we surrender much of our privacy. That in itself is interesting, but I found the introduction a bit shocking: the NSA is constructing a datacenter in the Utah desert that they project will be storing yottabytes of surveillance data. And what is a yottabyte? I’m glad you asked.

There are a thousand gigabytes in a terabyte, a thousand terabytes in a petabyte, a thousand petabytes in an exabyte, a thousand exabytes in a zettabyte, and a thousand zettabytes in a yottabyte. In other words, a yottabyte is 1,000,000,000,000,000GB. Are you paranoid yet?

UK taken to court over web 'secret surveillence'

The British Government will face off with the European Union over internet privacy. Photo / AP

British ministers face an embarrassing showdown in court after the European Commission accused Britain of failing to protect its citizens from secret surveillance on the internet.

The move adds to claims that Britain is creeping towards a Big Brother state and could end with the Government being forced to defend its policy on internet privacy in front of judges at the European Court of Justice.

Under the programme, the UK-listed company Phorm has developed technology that allows internet service providers (ISPs) to track what their users are doing online.

ISPs can then sell that information to media companies and advertisers, who can use it to place more relevant advertisements on websites the user subsequently visits. The EU has accused Britain of turning a blind eye to the growth in this kind of internet marketing.

Obama's Latest Use of 'Secrecy' to Shield Presidential Lawbreaking

Published on Sunday, November 1, 2009 by Salon.com

What was once depicted as a grave act of lawlessness -- Bush's NSA program -- is now deemed a vital state secret.

by Glenn Greenwald

The Obama administration has, yet again, asserted the broadest and most radical version of the "state secrets" privilege -- which previously caused so much controversy and turmoil among loyal Democrats (when used by Bush/Cheney) -- to attempt to block courts from ruling on the legality of the government's domestic surveillance activities. Obama did so again this past Friday -- just six weeks after the DOJ announced voluntary new internal guidelines which, it insisted, would prevent abuses of the state secrets privilege. Instead -- as predicted -- the DOJ continues to embrace the very same "state secrets" theories of the Bush administration

Petition to Obama government to disclose secret copyright treaty

Rishab sez, "Knowledge Ecology International is organising a petition to President Obama to make the US position in negotiations on the secret Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement transparent to the public. Boing Boing readers may remember previous posts on ACTA, the 'throw people in jail for sharing' agreement being developed in secret by rich countries who find the semi-public consultations in forums like WIPO tiresome."

Obama's administration has refused to disclose the drafts of ACTA on the grounds of "national security" (yes, really!), but we know from leaks and memos that it includes universal surveillance of the net; mandatory loss of Internet connections without trial for households where one member is accused of violating copyright; and a duty to search your laptop and personal devices at the border for infringing material.

It’s a common fact that aromas and scents can cure diseases but a study led by a professor from the Brigham Young University. This soon-to-be published study entitled “The Smell of Virtue” shows how people became generous with others when they are placed in clean-smelling environments. The results are determined after they sprits a small amount of Windex in a room. Researchers come up with this study as they see implications of rapport among workplaces, retail stores and other organizations that basically rely on traditional surveillance and security measures to law enforcement.
