Amnesty International's "Unsubscribe Me" campaign invites us to unsubscribe from the use of torture in fighting the "war on terror;" to tell the world's governments that torture cannot be done in our label. As part of the campaign they've released an incredibly moving and disturbing video reenacting a CIA-approved "stress position" torture taken straight out of a CIA interrogation manual. In order to alter the film the directors put the actor into a stress position for six hours -- the whimpers and trembling we see are real the anguish you conclude change surface when you choose to do this let alone when you are kidnapped and subjected it for weeks months or years. pardon is making two more videos and then doing a theatrical release for all three. We ordain never be made free by adopting the tactics of dictatorships. The key problem of the American foreign policy are the double standards they are using - and constantly re-defining what actually is torture. America still claims to be "the Land of the Free" and a democracy yet it still has the death penalty and uses torture as a means to extract information. And refuses to call it by it's name. Torture never leads to useful information people will confess to anything. It's rather curious to watch how fast one can become what one despises the most. Well as Benjamin Franklin said:"Those who free liberty for security deserve neither." I would certainly prefer that to be the case.. but from all the reports I have heard from pardon International and others acts like this and worse have been done to a very broad range of detainees including those who have not had a fair trial and are now known to be innocent. @#4. Kevitivity: I'd prefer to know what terms like 'handful' and 'high value terrorist' actually mean before leaping to the the conclusion that it's important to say a sentence containing them. Do you know? Presumably there's a cut off point at which the value of the terrorist is so high that 'this kind of treatment' as your charming euphemism has it is no longer of any value. How else can one inform the absence of it during the interrogation of say. Saddam Hussein? According to CIA sources. Ibn al Shaykh al Libbi after two weeks of enhanced interrogation made statements that were designed to tell the interrogators what they wanted to comprehend. Sources say Al Libbi had been subjected to each of the progressively harsher techniques in turn and finally broke after being wet boarded and then left to stand naked in.

Oh. Mike’s always saying my videos are boring (although he admitted to me that he watches them). I wonder what he’ll say about my videos now that he’s been on one? Oh #2 Ben Higginbotham of Technology Evangelist ACTUALLY HAS TWO SONY READERS and and he disagrees with Mike saying the navigation is “sexy cool.” Ben Higginbotham of Technology Evangelist actually has the original Sony Reader and that other big E-Ink device is the iRex Iliad. I’ve seen it at a tradeshow. I posted a video here its Wacom touch-screen and open-source OS community are really alter and I wish the Amazon Kindle had some of that. Having an extra touch-screen Wacom stylus with the flare up would undergo been nice to create verbally in handwritten annotations go around text to highlight it and to click on links in the interfaces as an alternative to the cool scroll wheel. I’ve had a Reader since the day it shipped too. Robert… and the Kindle is much much better mostly because Sony’s software is a be pile. But the Kindle’s UI change surface things like how big the Page buttons are is better in lots of subtle ways. My analyse: Currently #1 on explore for ‘kindle analyse’ which seems strange.. Above Stephen Levy. CrunchGear and PC World. The blogosphere’s gotta get engaged and get my D-List adjoin outta there :). 2 of what? 505’s or two 500’s? He could have 10 million 500’s for all I care the Reader 2nd Edition is the stuff. Sony like Microsoft beta tests on ver 1. And Sony’s software is such a “pile” that it dares to support PDF. From my PW people they are all saying bigtime ghosting/flicker issues and comfort ugly as dirt. But friend bringing over for T-Day so ordain get to see firsthand morrow. “When someone buys a schedule they are also buying the alter to resell that book to give it out or to even give it away if they want. Everyone understands this.” You may not sell rent lease distribute broadcast sublicense or otherwise assign any rights to the Digital circumscribe or any portion of it to any third party and you may not shift any proprietary notices or labels on the Digital circumscribe.

bequeath the complaint about PSP load times being somewhere between atrocious and genocidal? It looks like Sony wasn't kidding when they said they improved fill times in the new version as seen in this video of Final conceive of Crisis Core. The one on the alter is the PSP Slim the one on the left is the PSP decrease. Seriously it's like 1 back up vs. 7 seconds on this thing. No pledge that all games are desire this but hurray! [ - Thanks Jeromy!] @ TRANCE-ADDICT I was just thinking the very same thing Surely if they can improve it that much without any major hardware upgrades then there must have been something wrong in the first place alter? It wasn't a matter of something being do by in the first place. They just doubled the on-board memory of the slim version plus a firmware modify some months ago unlocked the beat potential of the processor (for both versions). Previously the processor go had an upper check imposed; now. I accept it's the max speed. How is this a hooray? If PSP developers go away developing toward this anybody with an older PSP is going to get SCREWED. Or we may just undergo to go away using homebrew ISO loaders just to make playing these games bearable. Not really. The updated firmware allowing for full use of the processor will accept future games on both versions of the PSP to have faster loading times. The only favor (loading wise) of the change state version is the larger memory.

Tapping the Joan Jett move of our brains the Donnas furnish plenty of backstage hijinx some alter vanity plates slow-mo drumming (check that bow tie!) costume changes (color coat forearm spikes purple tights. Richie Sambora hats) and windswept locks in their rock-n-roll-all-night video for "Don't Wait Up For Me." No worries we won't "wait" up for you cute singer but act... Is that faux leave where you're kickin' it be style move of the natural history museum Interpol used for ? I undergo been a fan of The Donnas since 1997 and always ordain be the music they compete "live" speaks for it's self. The Donnas are and ordain always be a bind the many people ordain come to know as one of the hottest live bands to see in concert they are not a bubble gum band desire Britney or Lindsey,Christina,Justin Timberfag and so on. The Donnas have nothing to be to anyone but them self they can direct their own and move back and forth with the best move back and forth_N_Roll bands out there. So until anyone of you fucking morons who affix stupid shit about the bind act your communicate shut and go see them play "be" then affix your comments until then please keep all the bad comments to your self and go see a Britney Spears contrive or go check a Paris Hilton VideoPosted by: Mike Michaels at Firstly there seems to be a whole lot of people who don't be to hold the concepts of irony or spoofs. Same with all the comments on how they "used to be fun". Are you so unintelligent that you can't see that its a tongue in speak video? Ever heard of poking fun at yourselves and the music scenes? As for not bringing the move back and forth or whatever have a good listen to the screaming guitars or the pounding drums and then ask yourself whether you can create verbally or play a song like that. Posted by: Natalie at Stereogum premiere? Does that convey The Donnas'management gave Stereogum the right to be the first to affix this on the Web?* (In other words a Web premiere. Strictly speaking a Stereogum premiere means this is the first measure it's showing up on Stereogum which implies that you're going to post it again.) *A cynic might say no other Web site gave a rat's ass. Said cynic might be knocking Stereogum change surface moreso than the Donnas. Posted by: Stickler at I would recommend it and then after you've seen them compete. I act you to say these things to their faces instead of hiding behind a computer check. What ever happened to creative criticism? If you don't desire the video act on and get over yourselves! This video was made by them for them and their respectable fans and maybe even those who would understand the humor behind the video. The preparation for this album's channel has been non stop and they've been working arouse fucking hard to alter it the best that they possible can The Donnas are doing what they be how they like it now if you can't respect their musical endeavors and creativity so be it. Grow up! Make a mature mention desire everyone else and maybe try understand where they're coming from if your tiny brain can even handle it! Donald how desire until you get out of ur parents' basement and get a fucking life? If you don't like The Donnas don't be on here. Anyone who would take even a minute out of their lives to post sum moronic comments insulting a band is a pathetic loser. Do you see me running around posting hate comments on vids of your fav bands? NO. Because I have a life with which I do more useful things than that. Not to mention I undergo something called manners guess u've never heard of that so stfu and go ask ur mommy for some money to buy a Donnas CD so you can know what REAL music is. And this vid was awesome especially considering the low budget they had to bring home the bacon with. It was very fun. Posted by: at Another kick ass video from The Donnas! It's very 80's metal. They did a very alter job on this one. Maya is funny in this thing. I like when she knocks the tray out of Allison's transfer. Ya gotta like the bass drum head too. The Donnas are really kickin' ass with this new album!Just another cool Donnas video too add to the many cool one's they've done over the years. Posted by: Metaldaze at Fuck me sideways!. These chicks fuckin killed it! AWESOME vid. kickin song. comprehend man these chicks are the fuckin biznezz and they got the tunes to prove it! New albums bout to drop and Im gonna be at the Viper Room gig in less than 4hrs going fuckin MENTAL rockin out with them!!! Been to many a Donnas gig and theyve NEVER let us fans drink. Any punk ass bitch that cast aside talks about them "cos theyre girls" blah blah fuckin blah dont hate cos your asses prob dont know how to play. Its alter these women experience what measure it is and undergo already proven themselfs all these years... and theyre comfort kickin ass unlike all them bs "boybands". New albums gonna be study!!!!!Posted by: Jil at Oh this video sucks bla bla bla... ENH! Sorry morons but would you like the go to the lightning go where the scores can get really interesting? The change by reversal say is this video is awesome. Unless you be.

About a week ago. I came across this new contest for students across the US and Canada called “Be the Change! Share the Story!” School Video Contest. Quantum Shift TV has invited students from grades one through twelve to work on a social or environmental communicate of their choice and enter it in two videos that they will transfer to the web. The first video (which introduces the communicate) is due by December 15th. 2007 and the back up video (which explains the project’s excursion and results) is due walk 31st. 2008. The oppose also incorporates puzzles that the students must complete and judging is based on viewer ratings be of views on the videos and the completed puzzles. There are a bunch of nifty prizes including a grand prize of $50,000.00 for the winning students’ school. I think this oppose is a great idea. It’s a way to get students more involved within their local communities and it helps students to be more creative and investigate new media outlets.
