Rep. Ann Wagner on The Dana Show 5-8-13
OBAMA ORDERED “STAND DOWN” “After Defense Secretary Leon Panetta made the following statement about not deploying troops without the intel that says its a good idea, career military people began talking. What they had to say suggests someone in Washington needs to be fired, [...] Jeff Poor On his Friday HBO program, “Real Time” host Bill Maher said what many people on the left have been reluctant to say: that he opposes the Second Amendment guarantee of the right to bear arms. Maher complained his side would not come out and say that, making the argument a “constant center-right debate.” “I’m so sorry, but this is the problem with the gun debate — it is that [...] Markham Nolan shares the investigative techniques he and his team use to verify information in real-time, to let you know if that Statue of Liberty image has been doctored or if that video leaked from Syria is legitimate. The Federal Bureau of Investigation doesn’t have the ability to monitor everyone’s one-on-one Internet chats in real-time just yet, but the agency’s chief lawyer says all that should soon change. FBI general counsel Andrew Weissman discussed the Justice Department’s power to put pressure on cyber-criminals during an address last week at the National Press Club in Washington, and during the engagement he opened up about what exactly the country’s top domestic police patrol [...] In hopes of blunting mounting electronic assaults, a German telecommunications carrier unveiled a free online capability that shows where Cyber attacks are happening around the world in real time. Deutsche Telekom, parent company of T-Mobile, put up what it calls its “Security dashboard” portal on March 6. The map, said the company, is based on attacks on its purpose-built network of decoy “honeypot” systems at 90 locations worldwide Deutsche Telekom said it [...] Some members of Congress apparently don’t like to be reminded about how much debt the country continues to rack up. During a House Financial Services Committee hearing Tuesday on the budget, two Democrats complained after House Financial Services Committee chairman Jeb Hensarling instructed that two monitors in the hearing room display a real-time running national debt clock.

Eventually, that data will be able to be seen in real time by officers on laptops in their squad cars and on mobile devices as they walk their beat. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/news/9884479/NYPD-and-Microsoft-build-hi-tech-crime-fighting-dashboard.html From FT: The minutes of the US Federal Reserve released on Wednesday are an essential read for those interested in a real time snapshot of the complexity of modern day central banking. They are also a cautionary note for all who believe that, acting on their own, today’s hyper-active central banks can engineer good economic outcomes. Read more Bill Maher on HBO’s Real Time Friday might have said one of the most disgraceful things uttered during the 2012 campaign season. “If you’re thinking about voting for Mitt Romney, I would like to make this one plea: black people know who you are and they will come after you” (video follows with commentary): Read more: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2012/11/03/maher-if-you-vote-romney-black-people-know-who-you-are-and-will-come#ixzz2BAhjrU3k Paul Joseph Watson During a recent appearance on the StarTalk Radio Show, Real Time host Bill Maher expressed his desire to see more people killed via abortion, suicides and the death penalty because “the planet is too crowded and we need to promote death.” Asked by host Neil deGrasse Tyson what he thought about the death penalty and abortion, Maher re-affirmed his support for both, remarking, “The Pope is [...] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GbcyDLP7hY The big monthly jobs report doesn’t come out until Friday, but no need to wait until then to know September’s unemployment rate: 8.1%. At least, that’s the best guess of economistsRegis Barnichon andChristopher Nekarda, who in a paper last month laid out a new method for forecasting the unemployment rate. Mr. Barnichon, of the Spanish research institute CREI, and Mr. Nakarda, of theFederal Reserve, plan to start posting unemployment projections based on the new technique [...] Iranian clerics’ attempts to curb speculation in the Rial and stabilize the currency appear to have backfired as the un-official (real) Rial rate traded as low as 34,250 Rial to the USD this morning – a massive 20% plunge. Demand for gold is surging (as Tehran exchange volume is up almost 18% today) as the population appears to be readying itself for hyperinflationary death – as we wrote yesterday, it really [...] (CNSNews.com) – Police in Tampa, Fla., reportedly will use behavior recognition software as part of their video surveillance of the Republican National Convention and the surrounding area on Aug. 27-30.
According to Government Security News, which covers homeland security and IT issues, the behavioral recognition software from BRS Labs will be deployed in video cameras anywhere from a few block to a few miles around the convention sites.

The curious caveat — who would write an article during the middle of the call? — is a product of the post-Twitter presidential campaign, barring reporters from the beloved habit of tweeting remarks in real-time. http://www.politico.com/blogs/media/2012/07/the-vps-remarks-will-not-be-tweeted-129919.html#.UA7I64994UA.twitter “To those who would say Canada’s real-estate market is in bubble territory, Royal LePage says it isn’t yet forecasting a pop. But, in certain markets, the real-estate group does see some of the air beginning to seep out. In its House Price Survey and Market Survey Forecast, released Tuesday, Royal LePage cautions the Canadian housing market is “at a turning point,” with some metropolitan areas showing robust growth, while other markets are showing price [...] Who knew the next black swan would be deep fried? The biggest piece of imminent food inflation news over the past months, coupled with what is shaping up to be another record hot summer (for the best tracking of real-time electricity consumption primarily for cooling news we recommend the following PJM RT tracker of power load), has been the collapse in the corn harvest due to the worst drought since 1988 as [...] Thanks to Alasdair Macleod, we all on this site became familiar with the TARGET2 (an acronym for the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross-settlement Express Transfer System) www.chrismartenson.com/blog/europe-crisis-european-perspective/74743

Well, get ready to scrap them as according to Italian Trade Union Confindustria, and validating the collapse as predicted by PMI indicators, Italy’s Q2 GDP is now expected to shrink more than 1% in Q2: the worst print since 2009, cementing the country’s “double dip”, and that real-time industrial output in April, now that LTRO has fizzled, is expected to fall 0.6%.

Using facial recognition to process surveillance footage isn’t a new concept — Scotland Yard began using the technique in the wake of last year’s London riots — but a new system developed by Hitachi Kokusai Electric could make the process quicker and more flexible than ever before. Shown off at this year’s Security Show expo in Japan, the system processes footage from both still images and live footage, recognizing faces [...] Tracking his every move: Fascinating images capture one man’s movements over THREE YEARS via his GPSAn astonishing hi-tech map showing three years of a Portland resident’s life has become an online hit. iPhone app developer Aaron Parecki decided to let his mobile phone track him for the project. Using the data, he has created stunning colour maps revealing his every move. Approximately one GPS point was recorded every 2-6 seconds by his phone or a portable tracker, and the images contain about 2.5 million locations. ‘I’ve had a fascination [...] The Forbes Billionaires List has long been the hallmark of who’s who in the world’s elite. But Bloomberg is hedging in on the market with the creation of the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, which is basically a real-time version of the Forbes list. Forbes is firing back to the new competition with the release of its annual list. While the upper echelon remains the same on both lists, major differences start to emerge as the list go on.

The app is slow to open; it doesn’t update in real time. Uploading photos is painfully slow. Apparently this bothers Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who has made improving Facebook’s mobile experience a personal priority. Startups like Instagram are taking advantage of Facebook’s missed mobile opportunity. By simplifying the social photo sharing experience on iPhones, Instagram got 25 million users in 1.5 [...] David Wallechinsky, Noel Brinkerhoff Twitter partner DataSift is now offering companies access to two years of tweets, making available a vast amount of market-research information.
