It was a historic event. Not unfortunately because of its scale.
Unpleasant to think about, but in terms of the scale it’s not that
unusual. I did say it’s the worst, probably the worst instant human toll
of any crime. And that may be true. But there are terrorist crimes with
effects a bit more drawn out that are more extreme, unfortunately.
Nevertheless, it’s a historic event because there was a change. The
change was the direction in which the guns were pointing. That’s new.
Radically new.....noam chomsky

1. Take action now: New York open access bill (Adi Kamdar)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Date: Fri, 7 Jun 2013 10:09:29 -0700
Hey folks, we need your help promoting and supporting the New York public
access bill, which is getting the full brunt of the publishers' wrath right
now. I think we realized that a good chunk of the FCF crew is in New
York?if that's you, please take action and spread the word about this bill.
If that's not you and you have any contacts in New York, please tell them
to spread the word and take action too!
Here's our action link:

We've made a lot of headway with the California public access bill, and
we're hoping to see more state-level solutions soon.
Thanks,

New York: It's Time to Take Action for Open Access
The New York State Senate and Assembly are considering the Taxpayer Access to Publicly Funded Research Act (S4050 / A180).
This bill—which would give the public access to the results of tens
from millions of dollars of taxpayer-funded research—is a crucial step
in the fight for open access.
As we've noted before, the lack of access to state-of-the-art research
affects students, researchers, and regular citizens—whether a curious
mind or a patient in need. The latest research also translates directly
into downstream innovations and important businesses, boosting the
economy and creating jobs.
Yet, like the California public access bill
before it, this legislation is subject to a misinformation campaign on
the part of publishers. Grievances about lost jobs, lost funds, and lost
quality remain unfounded. The bill does little to significantly alter
existing journals' models—in fact, it relies on their existence and
their facilitation of peer review. Publishers' lobbyists are parading
through the halls of the Senate and Assembly this very moment; it is
crucial your voice is heard, too.
New Yorkers, take action today and spread the word of this important bill.
Like proposed public access legislation before it on both the federal
and state levels, the Taxpayer Access bill requires all research funded
in whole or in part by state agencies to be made freely available
online. The New York bill requires agencies to post these manuscripts in
a repository no later than six months after publication in a
peer-reviewed journal, mimicking the provisions of FASTR, the federal public access bill, and the initial version of California's public access bill. (The California bill unfortunately changed its language to twelve months.)
The legislation mandates each agency submit an annual report on the
public access policy's effectiveness. One thing that is missing from the
bill's language—and that we expect to be part of each annual report—is
reuse. Open access has never been about simply making scholarly works
available to read, but also making them free to be built upon. A strong
reuse policy includes the ability to distribute manuscripts under a free
license that allows for downstream analysis, remixing, and innovation.
The Senate version of the Taxpayer Access bill is heading to the
Finance Committee next week, and your support is crucial to its passage.
If you live in New York, take action now. Be sure to tell your friends and family too. Heck, tweet about it too. The future of New York's education, innovation, and progress depends on it.

We cannot say much about human affairs with any confidence, but
sometimes it is possible. We can, for example, be fairly confident that

Sixteen months ago, three young women in Russia were arrested for
performing less than 40 seconds of a punk protest song. As news of the
Russian feminist punk group "Pussy Riot" spread like wildfire, millions
of people around the world watched the YouTube video of their
performance.
I'm appalled that today two members of Pussy Riot are still imprisoned in penal colonies for exercising their right to peaceful expression.
Your
letters, concerts, protests and tweets on behalf of Pussy Riot have
helped raise the women's profile and send a strong message to the
Russian authorities: "the world is watching."
Now there is one more tool we can use in our efforts to free Nadya and Masha: The documentary Pussy Riot: A Punk Prayer will debut on HBO on Monday, June 10th at 9pm/8c.
Amnesty
is promoting the film to continue to raise awareness about Pussy Riot's
case and to advocate for the women's immediate and unconditional
release. We are calling for an end to the crackdown on freedom of
expression in Russia.
You can help:
Host a viewing party with your friends and family. Download our viewer's guide for all the tools you will need and more ways to get involved with our work on Pussy Riot.
Earlier
this year Russian authorities banned the video of Pussy Riot's "Punk
Prayer" in Moscow's Christ the Savior Cathedral. The performance was
scrubbed from the Russian internet and labeled "extremist." However, as
this documentary shows, Pussy Riot can't be silenced and they won't be
forgotten.

This picture was taken with a camera 70,000 x 30,000 pixels (2100 MegaPixels).
These
cameras are not sold to the public and are being installed in strategic
locations. (This is in Vancouver, BC before the 2011 Stanley Cup riot
broke out).
It can identify a face in a multitude.
Place the cursor in the multitude of people and left double click a couple times.
It will continue to show the people much closer, when you double left click again. or click more if needed.

You will see the image amplify and discover with an incredible sharpness the faces.
There were thousands of persons and yet one can spot and recognize any face.
Imagine what means… both police and army have it.
