Microchip Implants Raise Privacy Concern
But the news that Americans had, for the first time, been injected with electronic identifiers to perform their jobs fired up a debate over the proliferation of ever-more-precise tracking technologies and their ability to erode privacy in the digital age.
To some, the microchip was a wondrous invention - a high-tech helper that could increase security at nuclear plants and military bases, help authorities identify wandering Alzheimer's patients, allow consumers to buy their groceries, literally, with the wave of a chipped hand.
To others, the notion of tagging people was Orwellian, a departure from centuries of history and tradition in which people had the right to go and do as they pleased, without being tracked, unless they were harming someone else.

Mind Control: The Ultimate Brave New World
Technologies for stimulating the brain and controlling the mind can have benefits, but they have a dark side that military and intelligence planners have been exploiting for decades.
Government control of the mind in order to impose its will on people is best summarised on the wall of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial with an inscription that reads: "They [who] seek to establish systems of government based on the regimentation of all human beings by a handful of individual rulers...call this a new order. It is not new and it is not order."

Overhaul Plan for Vote System Will Be Delayed
Democratic leaders in the House and Senate are slowing their drive to revamp the nation’s voting systems, aides said yesterday.
Under pressure from state and local officials, as well as from lobbyists for the disabled, House leaders now advocate putting off the most sweeping changes until 2012, four years later than planned.
Overhauling voting systems before next year’s presidential election had once been a top Democratic priority, primarily to allow greater accountability and be certain that all votes registered on computerized touch-screen systems were counted. But state and local elections officials told Congress they could not make the changes in time for the balloting in November 2008, particularly in light of the extra workload involved in preparing for next year’s much-earlier presidential primary season.

No Evidence Of Iran’s Role In Violence And Instability In Iraq –
Confirms British Foreign Minister
Asked by the FT, “What do you think of Iran’s complicity in attacks on British soldiers in Basra”?, Miliband’s first response was, “Well, I think that any evidence of Iranian engagement there is to be deplored. I think that we need regional players to be supporting stability, not fomenting discord, never mind death. And as I said at the beginning, Iran has a complete right, and we support the idea that Iran should be a wealthy and respected part of the future. But it does not have the right to be a force of instability”. However, prompted more closely, “Just to be clear, there is evidence?”, he replied, “Well no, I chose my words carefully…”.

As Dollar Crumples, Tourists Overseas Reel
By now, five summers after the dollar began its long swoon against the euro and the pound, American travelers are used to $5 cups of coffee and triple-digit dinner checks in Europe’s great capitals. But the dollar’s latest plunge to $2.05 to the pound and to a record of $1.38 to the euro has turned mere sticker shock into a form of suspended disbelief for many tourists.
Lockerbie: 'Experts,' Mysterious Timer
Firstly, the circumstances of the discovery of the board are uncertain. Secondly, and the point is crucial, the circuit board twice miraculously changed color in between the time of its discovery and the day it was presented at the trial. Thirdly, none of the experts is trustworthy in the light of past experiences. Last and not least, a former CIA agent and a Scottish policeman have told the defence and the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission [SCCRC] that the evidence had been planted by the CIA.
Lockerbie: Evidence Fabricated by CIA
Long before the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission (SCCRC) announced its spectacular decision to grant a fresh appeal to the Libyan man convicted of the worst act of terror in the U.K., Lord Fraser, who issued the warrant for his arrest, had expressed doubts about the initial verdict.
Inspector General Confirms Probe of Rogue FBI Anti-Terror Office

US: Presidential Order Affirms CIA Secret Detentions
President George W. Bush's new executive order on the Central Intelligence Agency's detention and interrogation program is contrary to the Geneva Conventions, Human Rights Watch said today. The new order, issued today, purports to determine that the CIA's detention and interrogation program "fully complies" with US obligations under Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions of 1949 as long as the CIA follows a series of requirements in carrying out the program.
Rules Lay Out C.I.A.’s Tactics in Questioning
The White House said Friday that it had given the Central Intelligence Agency approval to resume its use of some severe interrogation methods for questioning terrorism suspects in secret prisons overseas.
With the new authority, administration officials said the C.I.A. could proceed with an interrogation program that had been in limbo since the Supreme Court ruled last year that all prisoners in American captivity be treated in accordance with Geneva Convention prohibitions against humiliating and degrading treatment.
Bush makes 'bold' privilege claim
The Bush administration has lodged what officials call a bold new assertion of executive authority in the controversial dismissal of nine U.S. attorneys.
The White House says the Justice Department will never be permitted to pursue contempt charges brought by Congress against administration officials once President George W. Bush has invoked executive privilege in the matter, The Washington Post reported Friday.
The Legal Pervert's Parade: Executive Privilege Über Alles
Just in case you haven't noticed before, the United States of America has become a presidential tyranny. We've been clanging this bell here (and elsewhere) since late September 2001, and have seen it confirmed over and over through the years with torture edicts, domestic spying, rendition, secret prisons, indefinite detention of uncharged, untried captives, etc. and most recently and most baldly with the "Military Commissions Act," which enshrined the principle of arbitrary presidential power in law and gutted the ancient privilege of habeas corpus. This was rubberstamped by the Republican-led Congress last year and is still standing strong under the Democratic-led Congress.
