I tried to download episodes of Showtime’s hit show Californication, but my computer couldn’t SEE them. I took pictures, using Mac’s built in snapshot photo taker thing, of my computer’s perception of the incomprehensible Californication. [photoxhibit=20] [photoxhibit=21] I still haven’t seen the show. Is it about a sex addict or a pervert or something?

Murder for fun and “morale”: Shocking video of lethal Israeli attack on sleeping Palestinian prisoners
Shahd Abusalama, electronicintifada.netThe camera follows heavily armed Israeli security personnel raiding a prison dormitory, shouting at the prisoners to get out of bed, and that they would be shot if they didn’t obey orders.

These are scenes from a video that was shown in April 2011 by the investigative program Ouvda on Israel’s Channel 2 television station. The violent attack it records against the Palestinian prisoners on 22 October 2007 was real, but it was carried out as a “training exercise” for Israeli security personnel at Ketziot Prison to boost their “morale” and “motivation.”
Chicago terrorism charges part of NATO ‘climate of fear’
cbc.caDefence lawyers say Chicago police have vastly trumped up charges against three men arrested earlier this week, as part of a campaign to frighten peaceful protesters away from a NATO summit.
But defence lawyers shot back that Chicago police had trumped up the charges to frighten peaceful protesters away, telling a judge it was undercover officers known by the activists as “Mo” and “Gloves” who brought the firebombs to a South Side apartment where the men were arrested. “This is just propaganda to create a climate of fear,” Michael Deutsch said. “My clients came to peacefully protest.” On the eve of the summit, the dramatic allegations were reminiscent of previous police actions ahead of major political events, when authorities moved quickly to prevent suspected plots but sometimes quietly dropped the charges, or lost the cases in court, later. Toronto computer expert Byron Sonne’s ordeal stemming from the G20 summit there two years ago is just the latest example; Sonne spent 11 months in jail on bomb-plot accusations before being cleared of all charges this week by a judge who found he had no ill intent whatsoever.
