News about Gary McKinnon


ComputerWeeklydotcom's essential guide to Gary McKinnon's story with links to articles from the beginning. (2002)
http://www.computerweekly.com/Articles/2008/08/28/231065/hacker-gary-mckinnon-essential-guide.htm

Gary McKinnon talks to Huw Edwards on BBC News in July 2006
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4715612.stm
Indeed, the above link features McKinnon telling us why he is not such a good hacker since he was only doing what is called 'blank password scanning' which is not a proper computer hack.
Listen to him saying " I would be considered by a proper computer hacker, a professional, to be completely amateur."
Then listen to his answer to the broadcaster's question: "What's your case against extradition?"

And here is the latest news from TimesOnline :http://technology.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/tech_and_web/article6878553.ece

What could we do to help those children?

Obama Okayed 13,000 More Afghan Troops

Yes we can.
But no we won't...


http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/10/13/politics/washingtonpost/main5381329.shtml?tag=stack
extract :
The request reportedly includes different options for adding troops for combat, training and support, with one option totaling about 40,000. The ability of the Army and Marine Corps to meet the request would depend on the type and number of troops McChrystal asked for, and when he wants them. A significant troop increase in Afghanistan early next year - similar to the 2007 increase in Iraq - would be difficult to sustain given the current size of the Army and Marine Corps and ongoing troop demands in Iraq, officials said.

We Will Not Pay To Use Facebook. We Are Gone If This Happens

Apparently if Facebook gets sold then theres a major possibility that it will turn into a "Paysite". This is just stupid! Lets all stick together on this one and let them know that we will leave Facebook if they decide to charge us to use it.

WILL YOU PAY TO USE FACEBOOK ?
I don't use it much but if this happens, I'm gone!

Mc Donald's in the U.S.


No comment !!!

One of the most important video I've ever watched...

Because the truth will ALWAYS prevail and because freedom is our most precious possession, I believe everybody should watch it. Thank you.
This is the French version but you'll easily find the English one on the web.
I hope we'll have the web for ever. But I'm not so sure about it.

TO ALL THOSE WHO VISIT MY BLOG

WELCOME!!!
My blog was first created for my pupils. I'm a female John Doe... (any idea how you'd call her?) but I've got to admit that few of them visit it :-(
Many of you visitors come from around the world:
Britain, Germany, Poland, Croatia, Turkey, India, Philippines, Korea, Japan, U.S., Canada, Mexico, Argentina, and so on and so forth.
Indeed, thanks to sitemeter (the free version, thank you Sitemeter!), I'm able to see where my visitors come from and it's a thrill to see these web connections.

I'd love to hear from you all. Why don't you say hello right below in the comments. I promise to reply to every single comment. Or if you wish to send me a private message, please contact me at arago2311 at gmail.com.
I'm very much interested in teaching, UFOs, science and the 9/11 truth movement.
What about you?
Thanks in advance. Enjoy every single second of your life and your world. Our wonderful world. Peace. Elisabeth
