Keylogging trojan dodges anti-virus detection

A new variant of the Russian Trojan Gozi is circulating on the Web, this time armed with a keylogging function and the ability to scramble itself so it is difficult to detect by anti-virus software.  The Trojan is believed to have been spreading since April 17. Like the original, which was discovered earlier in 2007, the new version of Gozi steals data from encrypted SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) streams. 

NIST atom interferometry displays new quantum tricks 

Physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have demonstrated a novel way of making atoms interfere with each other, recreating a famous experiment originally done with light while also making the atoms do things that light just won't do. Their experiments showcase some of the extraordinary behavior taken for granted in the quantum world—atoms acting like waves and appearing in two places at once, for starters—and demonstrate a new technique that could be useful in quantum computing with neutral atoms and further studies of atomic hijinks.

U.S. helps Mexico intercept phone calls and e-mail

The Mexican government is stepping up its program to intercept phone calls and e-mails from its citizens, using expertise, money and equipment from the United States, the Los Angeles Times reports today. New president Felipe Calderon, a conservative with close ties to the Bush administration, wants to change the Mexican constitution to give authorities the power to spy on citizens without a court order. Sound familiar?

Report: Cheney aide clearing path to bomb Iran

A report published today reveals a growing game of tug-of-war between President Bush and his No. 2 regarding the US approach towards Iran. Vice President Dick Cheney believes the US should not be pursuing a diplomatic path with Iran, and a senior aide to the vice president has been meeting with national security think tanks and consultants in Washington to "help establish the policy and political pathway to bombing Iran,"

It’s time to stand up – put up – or shut up

House minority leader, John Boehner, who is known for his candor, expressed his feelings on the immigration amnesty and corporate welfare bill that is currently being debated in the Senate by calling the bill a piece of crap. Actually Mr. Boehner expressed himself in more eloquently blunt terms, but in deference to the tender sensibilities of those who are easily offended by blunt language I have altered the congressman’s words a bit. So we’ll just say that the subject of the “piece of” that the congressman referred to rhymes with “wit.” In actual fact the congressman could have used any number of euphemisms or politically correct words to express his disdain for this treasonous legislation, but apparently to his way of thinking a piece of, uh, crap by any other name is still just a piece of crap. – Jim R. Schwiesow

The changing standards of sexiness 

Although they may sound like part of “Bodies…The Exhibition,” “bifurcated girls” were a popular attraction in American men’s magazines at the turn of the 20th century. “The Bifurcated Girl Is Coming!” announced a May 1903 magazine cover. The following month, there it was: an entire 44-page issue featuring “Gay Girls in Trousers” and “Leading Actresses” in “Men’s Togs.”

Why Ron Paul’s answer terrifies them

In one short answer to a moderator’s question in the South Carolina debate in which Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul suggested that U.S. foreign policy motivated the 9/11 terrorists, Paul produced an earthquake that is shaking the Republican establishment.    Jacob G. Hornberger

DHS Mobile Lab To Test Citizens for Terrorist Intentions

Getting inside the Democratic or Republican national convention requires connections and a badge, but in the summer of 2008, it might require also require not setting off remote, cutting edge sensors designed to test whether or not you have terrorist intents.

What Did Israel Know in Advance of the 9/11 Attacks?

 

On the afternoon of September 11, 2001, an FBI bulletin known as a BOLO ­- "be on lookout" -- was issued with regard to three suspicious men who that morning were seen leaving the New Jersey waterfront minutes after the first plane hit World Trade Center 1. Law enforcement officers across the New York-New Jersey area were warned in the radio dispatch to watch for a "vehicle possibly related to New York terrorist attack" 

 

The Pentacon

 

LC Editor’s Comment:  9/11 researchers incapable of “thinking outside of the box” and stuck on the notion that either an airplance or a missile hit the Pentagon will have a field day trying to use this well-produced video offering by the Citzens Investigation Team to support their favorite scenario for this disaster.  They will no doubt succeed in proving themselves right --- be it their choice of vehicle a missile or a plane ---- simply because they have failed to think outside of the box.  I’ll be writing a feature article on the subject of the Pentagon crash and publishing it in next Tuesday’s issue of LIBERTY CALLING.  In the meantime I urge you to view this video a few times and ponder over its multiple messages - Ron Larsen, Ph.D. 

 

REPORT: 72 Percent Of Army Brigades Have Served Multiple Tours of Duty 

 

The Center for American Progress has released a new study on the state of our military readiness. The report — “Beyond the Call of Duty: A Comprehensive Review of the Overuse of the Army in the Administration’s War of Choice in Iraq” — undertook a “massive research project to identify, brigade by brigade, the number and duration of deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan by the active Army.” The report found a large majority of Army brigades have served multiple tours.

Physicist - Author Greene:  Backward Time Travel Unlikely, Foward a 1 Million Years Okay

The urge to hug a departed loved one again or prevent atrocities are among the compelling reasons that keep the notion of time travel alive in the minds of many. While the idea makes for great fiction, some scientists now say traveling to the past is impossible.

Overwhelming Implausibility of Using Directed Energy Beams to Demolish the WTC Towers on 9/11

 

As Dr. James Fetzer suggests, Dr. Judy Wood may be unable to provide answers  to basic questions regarding her own speculative hypothesis. However, this paper does quantitatively analyze those issues raised during the interview as well as address other

evidence advanced by Dr. Judy Wood and others that the WTC towers may have been  destroyed by directed energy weapons. The following arguments will prove that the degree of implausibility places the hypothesis squarely in the realm of the impossible.

Israel Calls for Sanctions on Iran that Bypass UN Security Council    

Jerusalem- Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called Wednesday on world leaders to impose sanctions on Iran even if they have to do so without the United Nations Security Council.
