***** 28 yr old Jeremy Hammond - 10 Years Prison. Saint? Hero?
28-year-old
activist Jeremy Hammond was sentenced today to 10 years in prison after
pleading guilty to participating in the Anonymous hack into the
computers of the private intelligence firm Stratfor.
Jeremy's
co-defendants with LulzSec in other countries have received shorter
sentences, the most being 2 years. Learn more about the CFAA law which
is being used to put Jeremy in jail for 10 years, and also contributed
to the death of activist Aaron Swartz: http://freejeremy.net/
"The acts of civil disobedience and direct action that I am being
sentenced for today are in line with the principles of community and
equality that have guided my life. I hacked into dozens of high profile
corporations and government institutions, understanding very clearly
that what I was doing was against the law, and that my actions could
land me back in federal prison. But I felt that I had an obligation to
use my skills to expose and confront injustice—and to bring the truth to light.
Could I have achieved the same goals through legal means? I have tried
everything from voting petitions to peaceful protest and have found that
those in power do not want the truth to be exposed. When we speak truth
to power we are ignored at best and brutally suppressed at worst. We
are confronting a power structure that does not respect its own system
of checks and balances, never mind the rights of it’s own citizens or
the international community."

***** BOYCOTT CHEVRON TO HELL: "Try to imagine an Ecuadorian oil company submerging Alabama in toxic wastewater and leaving it there for decades. Then when the people of Alabama successfully sued the company to pay for a cleanup, a random judge in Ecuador declares the verdict invalid and hauls, let's say, Judge "Faplan," author of the Alabama decision, into court in Ecuador and calls him a corrupt liar and says his ruling has no merit. If that seems insane, you're right. And now you're close to understanding the travesty of justice that we are witnessing here."....

My Plan to Donate SS Retirement to causes asap....
There is a setback:
Medical.
I'm on DC Medicaid- it is near bottomless. The instant I go on SS Retirement I am no longer eligible.
I have 12 years of dental currently covered, needing to be done.
I have months of chemo left for this cancer.
Looks like a delay till Feb, Mar, next year.
Sorry.
I'll keep you informed.

***** 'The primary Moral Law is to never hold anyone, any time, to a higher standard of any sort, than one holds oneself, in Truth, in behavior.'
Dear friend. (dialog with a fb friend, who recently excoriated Pr. Obama).
I don't know if I learned this, figured it out, of if it was always there in me - 'The primary Moral Law is to never hold anyone, any time, to a higher standard of any sort, than one holds oneself, in Truth, in behavior.'
This is like an automatic trigger in me, first with respect to myself, but 2ndly, with respect to the few people whose views I have any concern for.
You may well reject such a Law, or even if you agree with it, your view of Pr. Obama in truth may be that you hold yourself to a higher standard than he in almost every regard, and therefore can judge him so extremely.
My view is that he, throughout his life, has held himself to the highest possible standards, and exceeded them, Miraculously. He is worthy of my support. He is worthy of my constant evaluation. But so far I've just sited my evaluation.
Maybe you think that those who have held themselves to the highest standards are the likes of Cruz, or Bush II, Limbaugh, Beck.... Who is to say you are wrong? To me they are a desecration of the Law with every breath.

Cancer Update: Very depressed at lack of physical progress. Sigh.
1 good day, three to five bad ones. I keep looking to the 1 good day as a new normal, but not, so far. I was stronger, weeks ago. Walking 6 blocks to CVS was a 2 hour event today. All my body wants to do is sleep, to deal with the discomfort, pain, feeling of illness. But it can't sleep any more. The Ibupropen that appeared promising doesn't seem to do anything now.
IT TRULY COULD BE 1 MILLION TIMES WORSE.
But I am feeling worthless, a drain, ill, sick, hurting... for sooooooooooooo long now.
Oh well.
