Atlanta – For many living in a terror-spooked country, it might seem like a great government innovation: Use vans equipped with mobile X-ray units to scan vehicles at major sporting events, or even randomly, for bombs or contraband.

But news that the US is buying custom-made vans packed with something called backscatter X-ray capacity has riled privacy advocates and sparked internet worries about "feds radiating Americans."

"This really trips up the creep factor because it's one of those things that you sort of intrinsically think the government shouldn't be doing," says Vermont-based privacy expert Frederick Lane, author of "American Privacy." "But, legally, the issue is the boundary between the government's legitimate security interest and privacy expectations we enjoy in our cars."

American Science & Engineering, a Billerica, Mass.-company, tells Forbes it's sold more than 500 ZBVs, or Z Backscatter Vans, to US and foreign governments. The Department of Defense has bought the most for war zone use, but US law enforcement has also deployed the vans to search for bombs inside the US, according to Joe Reiss, a company spokesman, as quoted by Forbes.

On Tuesday, a counterterror operation snarled truck traffic on I-20 near Atlanta, where Department of Homeland Security teams used mobile X-ray technology to check the contents of truck trailers. Authorities said the inspections weren't prompted by any specific threat.

The mobile X-ray technology works by bouncing narrow X-ray streams off an object like a car and then analyzing the scatter rate of the returning rays. Operators can then locate less-dense objects that could be bodies or bombs.

Backscatter X-ray is already part of an ongoing national debate about its use in so-called full body scanners being deployed in many US airports. In that case, US officials have said they will not store or share the images and will use masking technology to avoid revealing details of the human body. Nevertheless, information security advocates have filed suit to stop their deployment, citing concerns about privacy.

Security experts say expanding the X-ray technology for use on American streets is a powerful counterterror strategy. They also point out the images do not not offer the kind of detail that would be embarrasing to anyone. Moreover, law enforcement already has broad search-and-seizure powers on public highways, where a search warrant is often not needed for officers to instigate a physical search.

But others worry that radiating Americans without their knowledge is evidence of gradually eroding constitutional protections in the post-9/11 age.

"Regardless of where you fall on the spectrum of national security … you have to be realistic that this is another way in which the government is capturing information they may lose control over," says Mr. Lane. "I just have some real problems with the idea of even beginning a campaign of rolling surveillance of American citizens, which is what this essentially is."

Matthew 12:31-32, Jesus says to the Pharisees,

"Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come".



There is one sin that is not unforgiven and it is this one that Jesus spoke of.Many people have argued what this sin is and the majority of the people have concluded that this unforgiven sin is leaders of the church telling the people lies and distortions about the bible.They are calling the unholy "Holy" and the "Holy" unholy.


I do hope pastors who are leading the church into destruction by doing things such as homosexual marriage realize there is a heavy price to pay for their sins which may not be forgiven.

You have two forms of Christianity today.One is the strict,correct,pure,the word of God is the word of truth faith.The other is you can do what ever you want good or bad because God loves you anyways faith



The True Christians out there are few and far between.You have churches performing homosexual marriages and accepting homosexually as something God would approve.Many churches and the pastors leading them have caved into political correctness by accepting and loving everyone despite the ungodly,unholy,lives they are leading.Many churches will not scold or reprehend you for anything you are doing including members of the church.

This is far from what Jesus taught and a world from what the bible tells us to do.Beware of corrupt churches and pastors our there!

Wow this is news?I wouldn't even discus this worthless story at the dinner table.You can spare us the follow up to this story.

I thought Obamas cash for clunkers was a good idea.It got a lot of poor fuel efficent cars off the roads and helped people get a big discount on newer cars which was a win for both sides.I'm sure that will have a effect on gasonline demand and lower prices sometime in the future.


Bushes rebate checks to taxpayers two times was a great idea.I can't think of any President that actually gave cash money back to the taxpayers.


I thought Bush's "No child left behind" was a good idea.

Bush's higher taxes for imports was good for America because imports were charged higher taxes and that stopped many imports from coming into America which American business's took over by producing here.


Bush's tax breaks for everyone was a wonderful idea.


I didn't like Bush building up the oil inventory during the record high gas prices.

Religion is man man and I am not a part of religion.If someone asked me if I was religious I would probably tell them "no".If they asked me if I believed in Jesus Christ and the Holy bible I would tell them "Yes".


Since I do not believe in other religions or the Gods they worship I do not waste time learning about them.I couldn't tell you the first thing about Buddhism,or Hinduism.I'm sure I would flunk their test on religion but could pass on test on Christianity with flying colors.

You should listen to the speech itself on video because it is much more telling about Obama.I never believed Obama was a Christian and listening to him studder and go ummmm,ummmm,ummmm during this speech only confirms what I believe.This speech is also the first time in two years Obama has ever mentioned "Jesus Christ".He speech was a cold as a tombstone in December.He doesn't attend church and his former church was lead by a man who blasphemed against God during church services.


Obama can claim he is a Christian.His voting record and his actions tell me otherwise.He is 100% pro choice and believes children that survive abortions should not get medical care and should be left to die.Any real Christian would never support abortion in any form including that barbaric late term abortion.He very often defends and speaks of Islam much more than he does Christianty.He said "America is no longer a Christian nation".He said Muslims and Christians pray to the same God.He defends Homosexuality and slanders those who speak against it.


I am a real Christian because I know Jesus Christ is real and his word is true and he is the son of God.I am a Christian because I know every good thing comes from God.I know there is no other Gods.Christianity defines who I am and I live my life by the teachings of the bible.

Many Christians who know God and Jesus will say the same thing.They can say it with out mumbling and with out bringing in other religions and defending those religions.

Calif execution try collapses after court setbacks

SAN FRANCISCO – California's first execution attempt in nearly five years collapsed Wednesday amid two adverse court rulings in as many days and an impending shortage of drugs that made the lethal injection of a convicted rapist-murderer impossible.

State officials called off the execution of Albert Greenwood Brown after a state Supreme Court ruling made Friday the earliest possible day that Brown could be given a lethal injection. But by then, the state's entire supply of a drug used during the process would have expired.

It was unclear when the state might try again to execute Brown, since it won't receive a new supply of sodium thiopental until early next year at the soonest.

Brown's attorney and death penalty foes had accused the attorney general's office of rushing to execute the inmate before the drug supply expired.

"I'm relieved," John Grele, one of Brown's attorneys, said about the canceled execution attempt. "This was a hastily designed plan."

The state high court ruling came a day after U.S. District Jeremy Fogel blocked the execution that had been scheduled for Thursday night. Fogel said he wanted more than a few days to determine whether California's new lethal injection process passes constitutional muster by avoiding cruel and unusual punishment.

The attorney general appealed that decision Wednesday morning to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals only to withdraw it in the afternoon. Senior Assistant Attorney General Ronald Matthias told the appeals court that "in light of the order of the Supreme Court of California ... no execution of Albert Greenwood Brown can occur on Sept. 30, 2010, as a matter of state law."

Brown was sentenced to death in 1982 for raping and killing 15-year-old Susan Jordan. Brown had taunted Jordan's mother with a phone call saying she would never see her daughter again.

"The appeals process in California has proven to be nothing more than a never-ending war of attrition against justice and the rights of victims and their families," said Karen Jordan Brown, the victim's sister. "The distress that this process has brought upon the Jordan family is profound and unfathomable, but has only tempered our convictions in favor of capital punishment."

The attorney general's office gave no new date for the execution of Brown but said one would "be sought in accordance with applicable law and in conformity with all court orders."

Before the execution was canceled, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger had declined Brown's request for clemency.


"He was convicted and sentenced to death by a jury of his peers, and now 30 years later the state is still unable to carry out his execution," Schwarzenegger said. "It is absurd that our legal system continues to prevent the state from carrying out the will of the people."

In August, the attorney general's office said execution dates would be sought for several of the more than 700 death row inmates who have completed the trial appeals process. But soon after, prosecutors canceled a hearing that had been set for Sept. 14 in Ventura County to obtain a death warrant for Michael Morales, who came within two hours of being executed in February 2006.

Prison officials called off the execution of Morales after conceding they couldn't comply with Fogel's order concerning the participation of medical personnel. In December 2006, Fogel placed a de factor moratorium on executions when he ordered prison officials to overhaul the lethal injection process.

Since then, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation has built a new death chamber and changed how the execution team at San Quentin prison is selected and trained.

The state formally adopted new lethal injection regulations on Aug. 29. The next day, the Riverside County District Attorney's Office obtained an execution date for Brown.

Now, it's unclear when California can schedule another execution.

On Friday, it will run out of sodium thiopental, and the only company in the country that makes the drug said it can't provide a new supply until the first of the year.

The state's battle to resume executions will most likely return to Fogel's court where a lawsuit filed by Morales has been pending since 2006.

"The state is confident it will ultimately prevail on this issue," prison department spokeswoman Terry Thornton said.

I am not for or against mega churches.I have been to church services in huge arenas and I really felt the Holy ghost flowing through the building.Seeing Billy graham at a capacity show in a huge football stadium was one of the highlights of my Christian faith.Big churches are nice to attend because they usually have a book store and gift shop where you can see the latest books and CD's.I do think the bigger churches are more likely to be corrupted by the huge amount of money flowing through them.I left my church for many years because the pastor was always driving a brand new car every 6 months and was always telling us we should give no less than a 50 dollar bill and should be giving several hundred.He was as corrupt as you can be.


Personally I like to go into the dirt poor neighborhoods and go to some run down church.The people and the service is as real as it gets and the pastor does not waste half of the service talking about trips,vacations,workshops,etc...I used to go to a church were everyone was black and I was the only white guy.It was a great church but I never felt comfortable going there.The 3 1/2 hour service was a big long also.

I think preventing people from expressing their own opinion is wrong.Everyone has a right to their own opinion.Many people have often said it would be good to shut up the KKK because it is hate speech.If we started doing that the gay mafia would say the Christian churches are spewing hate towards the homosexuals and they would be banned.It turns into a slippery slope.Pretty soon everyone will be offended by someone or something and want it banned.


I thought that judges decision to let those Demons masquerading as a church to keep protesting military funerals was a horrible descision.They are harassing and intimidating a bunch of people in the worst possible way.You should have the right to free speech until you are causing someone emotional distress and grief which could lead to violence and death.

I think if you were a white person standing on the street corner telling people "we need to kill a few black babies",3 police cars would come screeching to a halt and 10 cops would slam you to the ground,kick you in the face,and send you to jail where you would later be charged with a hate crime and spend 10 years in jail for conspericy to commit murder.

Most people don't realize you can't travel into another country if you have a felony.Imagine how many people(including the gangs and drug dealers)would not be living in America because they were denied entry because of their felony?

The real cash cow is green energy.It is far,far,more expensive then other forms of energy.So if we are talking about greed and a power grab green energy is leading the herd.


http://broadbill.wordpress.com/2010/09/28/windpower-twice-as-expensive-as-coal-and-gas/

Britain’s so-called “dash for wind” means that it is now the biggest off shore generator – producing as much as the rest of the world put together.

But costs of building the farms have doubled due to spiralling prices for steel and the drop in the value of the pound.


The running costs are also increasing.

The report found that costs have risen for all kinds of generation but off shore wind farms remain by far the most expensive – 90 per cent more than fossil fuel generators and 50 per cent more than nuclear.

The news is bound to lead to question over the government’s policy of using wind power to meet its target to generate around a third of its electricity from renewables by 2020.

But the authors of the report at the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC), a government think tank, said they remained “cautiously optimistic” that wind can play a significant contribution to the zero carbon energy production for Britain.

“We think that there are grounds for cautious optimism,” said Dr Robert Gross, of Imperial College London, who headed the report.

“Yes it is more expensive than gas and coal and is unlikely to reach parity for at least 20 years but we still think it is a worthwhile energy producer.

“All alternatives such as nuclear and carbon capture are bound to have teething problems too.”

With the opening of Thanet wind farm in the North Sea last week Britain became the biggest offshore wind generator in the world.

The world’s biggest ocean wind farm off Foreness Point, Kent, it has 100 turbines, each measuring more than 300ft, and will power more than 200,000 homes.

Swedish energy giant Vattenfall – which spent £780 million on the array – refuses to say how long it will take for the farm to pay for itself.

However the UKERC have calculated that the cost per unit of energy – known as a Megawatt hour – over the 25 year lifespan of the farm is expected to be £149.

That compares with £80 for coal and gas, and £97 for nuclear power.

Onshore wind farm – at £88 per megawatt hour – is almost as efficient of fossil fuels but is hampered by complaints they ruin the landscape.

Experts fear that Britain is relying too much on wind as a power source when other technologies are required in calm weather. Thanet wind farm increases the number of large-scale turbines off Britain to 436, with 2,640 on land.

Almost 1,000 turbines are being built offshore and onshore and a further 2,300 have planning consent.

The Government hopes to have as many as 6,000 onshore and 4,000 at sea.

Dr Gross said one way to reduce costs would be for the government to increase the production capacity in Britain.

At the moment almost 80 per cent of the turbines and platforms have to be imported which means they are susceptible to currency fluctuations.

It also means that Britain is losing out on the chance of building a new industry out of their world leading position.

Dr Gross said: “The UK is not yet fully benefiting from being a world-leader in the field; in effect UK consumers are subsidising Danish and German wind energy companies.

“This report suggests that policies could do more both to bear down on costs and support a UK based industry.

“At the moment the UK’s support system offers a generous subsidy but may not do enough to build confidence in the companies making components, providing vessels or delivering support services.

“We could do more to support innovation and the smaller players lower in the supply chain.”

Seems ironic you probably have these same murderers in Mexico skip jumping across the border into the United states to have some idiot like Obama and Pelosi give them welfare and free medical in some sanctuary city.


Anyone ever think we wouldn't be reading about these problems if we had a 60 foot wall along our border with armed guards every 600 feet?

You talk like you have been living a cave for the last 30 years.

You ever watch that show "To catch a predator"?Simply showing up for the meeting is enough to get your dumb butt thrown into prison for 20 years.Having pornographic photos of nude children on your computer can get you a swift felony and jail time.


You do have a right to your beliefs however if you are the kind of person who is considered a danger to the public you can be arrested and thrown in jail for conspiracy to commit a crime.You ever hear of David koresh?You have the right to free speech unless you are threatening another person.The minute you start threatening someone you can be arrested for harassment.Your rights to free speech ends when it comes to face to face slander of another person,giving false or misleading information to a police officer,yelling fire in a crowded theatre,and thousands more I can't think of.


All of your rights go into a whole other ball game when a second person is involved.When two people are involved anything can happen.The KKK may have the right to hold a rally.The minute they call for death and destruction of the blacks they are setting themselves up for a whole list of offences to be thrown into jail for.

You don't know what you are talking about.Millions of laws have been passed since the Constituition was written.Thousands of them can put you in a dark,cold,cell for the rest of your life where all your rights cease to exist.Gary ridgeway is locked up in SuperMax where he spends 23 hours a day in solitary confinment.You know what his rights are?1 hour a day to shower,and walk around a small patio area which is totally inclosed except the roof.


You think your rights are above the laws of this country?Your living in a fantasy world.When a man is sitting in a electric chair all of his rights go out the window with the flip of switch.

It's hard to believe and sickening that there is actually people out there who would defend these people in any way shape or form.Any person who is defending these sick,perverted,child predators,should be thrown in jail right next to them and left to rot.It is even more disgusting that people are defending grown men having sodomy with young boys.


I'm sure the ACLU will be defending them shortly.Sounds like a case right up there alley.

I'm not defending anyone including Bozo or Hannity that gives 4% or less to the charity.Before people give to a charity they should always see how much of the money is actually going to the charity and how much is going to fat,lazy,cigar sucking CEO's who are making millions a year doing nothing in the name of starving children.

There are many charities that give all or nearly all the money to the charity.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1314543/Bonos-ONE-foundation-giving-tiny-percentage-funds-charity.html#ixzz10TNqfRuo

Bono's anti-poverty foundation ONE is under pressure to explain its finances after it was revealed that only a small percentage of money it raises reaches the needy.
The non-profit organisation set up by the U2 frontman received almost £9.6million in donations in 2008 but handed out only £118,000 to good causes (1.2 per cent).

The figures published by the New York Post also show that £5.1million went towards paying salaries.


While the organisation's gameplan has never been direct handouts on the ground, many who admire the Irish rock legend may be surprised by the figures.

Bono was playing Brussels last night with U2 as the world's leaders - so many of whom he speaks to directly - were meeting at the UN assembly in New York to assess the progress, or lack of, in reaching the Millennium goals they set.
The day job: Bono performs with U2 last night at the King Baudouin stadium in Brussels
The Post revealed it had received a number of gifts from ONE in the run-up to the event, such as leather notebooks, bags of coffee and water bottles.
In the UK, the organisation has laid on a series of high-profile, celebrity-supported events since it launched in 2002 to fight poverty in Africa and Aids worldwide.
In 2009, the group campaigned to have enshrined in British law a commitment to development assistance abroad.

ONE spokesman Oliver Buston has now defended the way the organisation is run, insisting the money is used for promoting its campaign and raising awareness rather than being given straight to those who need help.
He said: 'We don't provide programmes on the ground. We're an advocacy and campaigning organisation.'
Another spokesman in New York today dismissed the notion of lavish salaries being paid to its 120 members of staff and said the organisation was highly efficient in its raising of awareness.

ONE said it took no money from the public and that most of its funding came from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

And of course you have idiots like the woman who wrote this book painting the Nazi's as just a bunch of guys who bend over back ward for the prisioners needs.Just like you have a bunch of people fighting tooth and nail to defend Irans nuclear program as "Peaceful energy".
