"Cory Maye will not sleep on death row tonight. Nor, for that matter, any night for the foreseeable future."

"The aspect of the president's plan that has aroused the strongest objections from congressional critics and military lawyers, including the judge advocate general of each service, is that it allows a defendant to be convicted based on classified evidence he never sees, compromising a fundamental procedural safeguard that predates the Constitution."

"[I]s the Academy too 'academic' for Joe and Jane to absorb once they do accept Mark's invitation? It's an Academy, so it does set out to be academic and intellectual to a point, Tony is quite right. All of its 18 Segments set out to appeal to the mind of the studying member, more than to his emotions, that is correct. If that intention is flawed, then the project will fail--but then, if humans do not make our key decisions on the basis of reason above all, the species is doomed anyway...."

"When Facebook unilaterally changed the rules about how personal information was revealed, it reminded people that they weren't in control. Its eight million members put their personal information on the site based on a set of rules about how that information would be used. It's no wonder those members -- high school and college kids who traditionally don't care much about their own privacy -- felt violated when Facebook changed the rules."

"To not be afraid is downright un-American, but I can state unequivocally: I'm not afraid, not of Muslims, Arabs, Iraqis, Iranians, Syrians, Mexicans, or dissidents. I am afraid of US citizens who are not outraged -- people who aren't paying attention or are actually buying into this destructive, senseless fear. I often feel like I live in a modern-day horror show, 'The Invasion of the Body Snatchers,' because this zombie-like state of fear that people have allowed themselves to absorb is much more frightening to me than 69 million people in Iran potentially using nuclear energy."

"I was very moved by the experience of interacting with all of these people. Their concern for their community and the [nation] was at times quite humbling. But I'm also heading home experiencing a more funadamental feeling--fear. I'm afraid. I've become certain that there are many people in this country who want to tell the rest of us how to live. Who want this country to be governed exclusively by Christians who think that the 10 Commandents and the Bill of Rights are one and the same."

"[D]ecades ago, a rape victim was not merely questioned but also had her character 'put on trial' by the legal system. A backlash finally created a more respectful approach to victims. But it is in the nature of pendulums to swing too far. A sensitivity toward victims became a demand that some accusations be simply and immediately believed: for example, accusations of sexual assault. 'Women don't lie about rape,' became a standard refrain. ... The modern tendency to view an accused's due process (e.g. the presumption of innocence) as antagonistic to an accuser has obscured the reason due process arose in the first place."

"A system of private justice would include private courts, private 'law enforcement' (which would be more like non-forcible crime prevention), and an underlying system of competitive, private insurers. Such a system would provide less incentive for attempting wrongful acts in the first place. In small amounts, crime would still exist; and each provider (court, insurer, etc.) of an element of the private justice system would have to produce results which, over time, convinced both winners and losers that they were treated fairly, or they'd go out of business."

"Leier quotes Bakunin as stating in 1868, 'Under the pretext of making men moral and civilized, the state has enslaved, oppressed, exploited, and corrupted them. I want the organization of society and collective, social property by free association from the bottom up, not by authority from the top down.' Bakunin criticized Marx for believing that when economic conditions were ripe workers could seize the state and establish a worker's government. He was much more suspicious of any state bodies, of hierarchies and of authorities, whether already existing or proposed for the future."

"We already recognize the Republicans as a bunch of fascists--that has become unmistakably clear in the first years of the new Millennium. Now we are reminded that the Democrats are at least as bad or arguably worse. "

"Why is this story so seductive? Because it involves the greatest lesson in the time of terrorism: The ultimate hope for halting indiscriminate violence lies in civil society. Unless there is a grass-roots effort to uproot violence, terror cannot be stopped. It will merely be replaced by another type of terror."
http://www.independent.org/newsroom/article.asp?id=1820
"When the Serbian dictator Slobodan Milosevic left office in October 2000, he was felled not by NATO's bombs but by his own police and soldiers' refusal to enforce his orders. For nearly a decade, a merry band of militants called Otpor ('Resistance') had been treating his regime to a mix of Gandhian disobedience and Yippie-style pranks, planting the seeds of rebellion across the country and helping assemble a broad, nonviolent anti-government coalition."

"[C]reate distinct segregated networks within the campus. Treat networks that aren't under the IT department's direct control as untrusted. Student networks, for example, should be firewalled to protect the internal core from them. The university can then establish levels of trust commensurate with the segregated networks' adherence to policies. "

"Government's responsibility is not to protect its citizens. Rather the primary function of government is to protect the inalienable rights of the individual as stated in the Declaration of Independence. By following the principle of private property rights, the individual then becomes responsible for protecting his own property. The so-called immigration invasion can then be addressed through private ownership of all property, resulting in each individual being responsible for protecting his own land."

"Just as the telephone monopoly prevented creation of cheaper and more-efficient alternatives and diversity in telecommunications, so the public-school monopoly has prevented creation of cheaper and more-efficient alternatives and diversity in education. One brand cannot serve all. So let’s clear the way for entrepreneurs to meet the educational needs of students with all sorts of talents and ambitions."
http://www.fff.org/freedom/fd0606e.asp
"In other words, not until this very day was the American government able to capture, detain, question and try terrorists. I'll bet you didn''t know that. I'll bet the men who were captured, detained, questioned, tried and convicted for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing didn't know that either. Really, that's what Bush said; the agreement 'clears the way' for the government to actually detain and interrogate terrorists -- as if they weren't able to do that before. What he means, of course, is that the ability to torture alleged terrorists -- snatched arbitrarily, anywhere in the world, simply on the say-so of the Leader or his designated minions -- will be preserved. Bush obviously has a deep psychological need to feel that someone is being tormented at his orders at all times."
http://www.chris-floyd.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=856&Itemid=135
"At his address to United Nations this week, George W. Bush declared that Syria was 'the crossroads for terrorism.' Maher Arar knows this first hand. He was kidnapped and sent to be tortured in Syria at the behest of the Bush administration."

"If you have a passport, now is the time to renew it -- even if it's not set to expire anytime soon. If you don't have a passport and think you might need one, now is the time to get it. In many countries, including the United States, passports will soon be equipped with RFID chips. And you don't want one of these chips in your passport."
http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2006/09/renew_your_pass.html
"In any case, the vagueness of the phrase 'outrages on personal dignity, in particular humiliating and degrading treatment' is a real strength of the Convention, not a flaw. Why? Because those who hold prisoners captured on battlefields everywhere will have to think long and hard about what activities might violate that provision and lead them later to be charged with war crimes. It encourages military and other jailers to err on the side of caution when it comes to their treatment of prisoners."
http://www.reason.com/links/links091806.shtml
"The key players in the U.S. Senate have agreed with the Bush administration to retroactively legalize torture by U.S. government agents. The compromise deal struck yesterday will block prosecution for CIA officials who tortured detainees since 9/11. I would expect that, in the name of 'fair play,' someone will begin pushing similar legislation to give immunity to U.S. military officials who tortured detainees in Afghanistan and Iraq."
"Which brings me to the utter disconnect between what Bush says and what his actions accomplish in the real world. He claims to champion the forces of 'moderation,' while launching a 'global revolution' that rivals the dreams of Alexander, Napoleon, and Lenin all rolled into one. "
http://www.antiwar.com/justin/?articleid=9720
"By framing the war on terror as a struggle between the liberal soldiers of the Enlightenment and the dark forces of theocracy, these progressives gave cover to warmongers with rationales much less lofty. In fact, one of the major ironies is that their support has aligned them with right wing religious groups with their own theocratic agendas. ... But progressive supporters of the Iraq invasion apparently are willing to tolerate Bush's Messianic conceits. Even though the president describes the invasion and occupation of Iraq in increasingly Manichean terms with theological overtones, the secularist Hitchens remains an undaunted supporter."
http://www.inthesetimes.com/site/main/article/2827/
"But for pure mendacity, nothing can top the stunning falsehoods Bush is putting forward to justify the need for the 'alternative set of procedures' used by the CIA in interrogating terror suspects. He wants Congress to essentially codify torture for use against intransigent high-value prisoners - a step that would irreversibly alter our national character."

"Most important, no government edict was necessary to make any of this happen. While social engineers on both the political Left and Right fret over diversity, the marketplace seems to be a step ahead of them. Hoping to literally capitalize on people's differences, many private businesses are radically changing the way they do business. Far from claiming anyone is 'breaking in,' these intelligent capitalists are looking for ways to get more people into their stores."

"Deterioration of body and mind are the prices our bodies pay for protection against cancer as we grow older, new studies suggest. Scientists have discovered that a gene involved in tumor suppression also plays an important role in determining when certain cells in the body cease multiplying and start deteriorating. As cells age, the gene, called p16INK4a, becomes more active. The cells have greater protection against cancer but lose the ability to divide. Cells that don't divide die off and are not replaced."
http://www.livescience.com/humanbiology/060918_cancer_aging.html
"Maybe Congress should call in the CEOs of major airline and trucking companies and berate them for shameless profiteering off falling fuel prices. Or maybe everyone should just seize the moment to remember that the likeliest explanation for such events is the most obvious one. In this case, price swings that are easily explained by world tensions and seasonal shifts in supply and demand. Boring perhaps, and certainly no help to candidates eager for villains to blame. But true. This isn't to say that price fixing doesn't happen from time to time. Nor is it to say energy companies haven't been able to jack up their margins. But neither the president of the United States nor the most pernicious schemes can affect prices nearly as much as global economic and geopolitical forces."

"Perceived facial similarity of children is effectively an estimate of the probability that two children are close genetic relatives according to a new study recently published in Journal of Vision, an online, free access publication of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO)."
http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2006-09/afri-pfs091906.php
"Defense appropriations remain the most hideously undercovered ongoing story in America. Some of this is probably due to the fact that defense companies have a long history of owning major media outlets (Westinghouse and GE being prime examples), but even beyond that there seems to be an instinctive reluctance on the part of reporters to even consider covering military waste stories. ... The F-22 -- useless as tits on a bull against Al Qaeda, but it sure will look nice flying over next year's World Series opener! Why not? It's not their money. ... What a joke American journalism is. "
"When I say 'bad' monetary policy, let me be clear what I mean. I mean all monetary policy -- the very existence of monetary policy. The free market position that Mises and his successors laid out regards money as a good like any other, one whose creation and management should be handled by the market economy. There should be no policy at all. That's the free market answer."
http://www.lewrockwell.com/rockwell/govt-doing-to-money.html
"Tariff suspensions of course would be impossible if there were no tariffs to suspend -- which is how it should be. But a no-tariff policy would deprive congressmen of power. The authority to grant selective tariff suspensions is undoubtedly a good source of campaign donations and other benefits, so for officeholders, there is no advantage in scrapping the protectionist system."

"There's no crisis here that hasn't been created by government interventionism. So-called patients' rights advocates claim that health-care workers have an ethical obligation to serve their patients. Fine. Children have a similar ethical obligation to look after their parents in old age. No doubt both make for a better society. But such ethical observations on what makes for a more civil and caring world belong in the realm of discourse -- not lawmaking."
http://www.fff.org/comment/com0609d.asp
"According to libertarian class analysis, which traditionally identifies capitalists as the chief enemies of 'capitalism,' there is a mutually reinforcing dynamic between corporate pressure politics, foreign imperialism, and domestic oppression; the business lobby drives military adventurism, which leads at home to the mobilization and regimentation of society and the erosion of civil liberties, as government assumes emergency powers that are never fully undone after the emergency."
http://www.mises.org/story/2310
"From the foregoing commentary, a recurrent theme may be extracted: those who argue that 'war is horrible, but . . .' nearly always use this rhetorical construction not to frame a genuinely serious and honest balancing of reasons for and against war, but only to acknowledge what cannot be hidden--that war is horrible--and then to pass on immediately to an affirmation that notwithstanding the horrors, whose actual forms and dimensions they neither specify nor examine in detail, a certain war ought to be fought. The reasons given to justify its being fought, however, generally amount to claims that cannot support a strong case. Often they are not even bona fide reasons, but mere propaganda, especially when they emanate from official sources. "

"In recent centuries, war has reliably accomplished three things: kill vast quantities of individuals, expand the size and scope of the central state and degrade the traditional values of Western Civilization."
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=52020
"President Bush believes in the bogeyman – the bogeyman theory of history, that is. In order to frighten Americans, he paints the War on Terror as a rematch between the free world and the fascist monsters of the 1930s. ... WWI shattered Europe. Three empires collapsed: the German, the Austro-Hungarian, and the Russian. … Under these dismal conditions, the world retrenched from liberal economic ideals, and fascism and autarchy became the paths to salvation. The state and only the state could redirect economic and social life."

"Over five days at least ten black people were killed while Atlanta's police did nothing to protect black citizens, going so far as to confiscate guns from black Atlantans while allowing whites to remain armed. White mobs killed dozens of blacks, wounded scores of others, and inflicted considerable property damage. On the afternoon of Saturday, September 22, Atlanta newspapers reported four alleged assaults upon local white women, none of which were ever substantiated. These newspaper reports were the catalyst for the riot." Contains an excerpt which shows the high value of minorities owning firearms.

"Critics of Roosevelt's New Deal often liken it to fascism. Roosevelt's numerous defenders dismiss this charge as reactionary propaganda; but as Wolfgang Schivelbusch makes clear, it is perfectly true. Moreover, it was recognized to be true during the 1930s, by the New Deal's supporters as well as its opponents."
http://www.mises.org/story/2312
"In 1912 most people had little contact with the federal government aside from postal delivery. In eight years the country had a central bank and the income tax, had fought an overseas war not relevant to its security, and lived under Prohibition. Thirty years later it had a welfare system for old people, a permanent military-industrial complex poised to intervene in another overseas war, and an army of bureaucrats regulating the economy. The taxes, entitlements, attacks on civil liberties, and needless wars have continued ever since."
http://partialobserver.com/article.cfm?id=1950
"It was the War to Prevent Southern Independence that signaled the end of the United States, not the other way around. Before the war it was widely understood that the American union was a voluntary union of states. As of 1865 it was held together at gunpoint, with the eleven southern states guarded as occupied provinces by an invading army for twelve years. The voluntary union of the founding fathers was destroyed by Lincoln and the Republican Party."
http://www.lewrockwell.com/dilorenzo/dilorenzo108.html
"Dominating the main oil export route from Central Asia was a primary objective of the US invasion of Afghanistan. Ironically, instead of an anticipated oil bonanza, the US now finds itself mired deep in the Afghan drug trade. Washington and NATO can't keep pretending this is someone else's problem. Drug money fuels the Afghan economy and keeps local warlords loyal to the US-installed Kabul regime. Afghanistan's north has become a sphere of influence of Russia and its local allies, the Uzbek-Tajik Northern Alliance led by notorious war criminals and leaders of the old Afghan Communist Party. The US and its allies are not going to win the Afghan war. They will be lucky the way things are going not to lose it in the same humiliating manner the Soviets did in 1989."
http://www.ericmargolis.com/archives/2006/09/afghanistan_tim.php
"If Iran remains intransigent, the United States will probably have to accept that Iran will likely some day become a nuclear weapons state. Although undesirable, this outcome would not be catastrophic because the United States has the most formidable nuclear forces in the world and could likely deter any strike from the small Iranian atomic arsenal."
http://www.independent.org/newsroom/article.asp?id=1817
"Military aggression as a useful method of advancing imperial goals--and with it callous indifference to even minimum rules of warfare--goes back to the earliest period of American history, and is nowadays shared equally by Republicans and Democrats. General 'bipartisan' support for the permanent war economy, security state, and global military ventures is solidified by an increasingly jingoistic corporate media that, as leading propaganda arm of the Pentagon, helps normalize the outlawry."
http://www.counterpunch.org/boggs09182006.html
"In a rare U.S. appearance, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad visited the United Nations yesterday in New York. Beyond the novelty of the visit, though, and amid the European Union's claims of progress in negotiations over the Iranian nuclear program, Americans no doubt have a sense of déjà vu. A rogue state in a critical region, weapons of mass destruction, inspections, negotiations, the threat of sanctions, indecisive multilateral bodies - haven't we seen it all before? "

"In the spring of 1846 Riemann enrolled at the University of Göttingen. His father had encouraged him to study theology and so he entered the theology faculty. However he attended some mathematics lectures and asked his father if he could transfer to the faculty of philosophy so that he could study mathematics. Riemann was always very close to his family and he would never have changed courses without his father's permission. This was granted, however, and Riemann then took courses in mathematics from Moritz Stern and Gauss."

[from "The Truth About the 'Robber Barons'"] "James J. Hill was hardly a 'baron' or aristocrat. His father died when he was fourteen, so he dropped out of school to work in a grocery store for four dollars a month to help support his widowed mother. As a young adult he worked in the farming, shipping, steamship, fur-trading, and railroad industries. He learned the ways of business in these settings, saved his money, and eventually became an investor and manager of his own enterprises."

Political intrigue action / adventure stars Warren Beatty, Hume Cronyn, Paula Prentiss, William Daniels, Walter McGinn; based on a novel by Loren Singer, directed by Alan J. Pakula.

"They live in cages. They have no rights. They're in our custody forever, or until we decide, inscrutably, that we're done with them and eject them, broken, back into whatever remains of their lives. Only the hard-shell security extremists continue to insist that this is necessary, that we're safer because of it. For the rest of us, the sham is becoming more and more bizarre, and in spite of ourselves we find ourselves empathizing, to the extent possible, with the shattered detainees our government insists are our enemies."

"What forces were responsible for the crimes of 9/11? Admittedly, I do not know, nor am I prepared to transform my skepticisms into accusations. Perhaps it is the lawyer in me that has this strange attraction to evidence as the basis for my empirical judgments.

"The government's coercive taxing power necessarily creates two classes: those who create and those who consume the wealth expropriated and transferred by that power. Those who create the wealth naturally want to keep it and devote it to their own purposes. Those who wish to expropriate it look for ever more-clever ways to acquire it without inciting resistance. One of those ways is the spreading of an elaborate ideology of statism, which teaches that the people are the state and that therefore they are only paying themselves when they pay taxes."

"Although he envisioned a deterministic universe, Spinoza held that an entity is free that exists by the necessity of its own nature and that is determined in its own actions by itself alone. Like Aristotle, Spinoza values something to the degree to which it realizes its nature. He sees freedom as meaning a person endeavoring to persist in his own being. To be free is to be guided by the law of one's own nature. Spinoza also observes that freedom means that options exist and that people have the ability to make value judgments and decisions. "
