ChatRoulette Creating Penis-Recognition Algorithm to Block Problematic Users

Posted: 28 Jun 2010 02:25 PM PDT

ChatRoulette is a really interesting idea, but it has one significant problem; an 'impressive' percentage of male users who use the site to flash unsuspecting people. Hopefully that will soon be a thing of the past.

"There's something exhilarating about meeting someone new, whether it's in a coffee shop or online. That is, until your new pal pulls a Lyndon Johnson and gets really friendly.

That sort of behavior is pretty common on Chatroulette, where users can "meet" and chat with random people with a click of a mouse. But to cut down on the parade of penises, the service is planning to add image-recognition software that will filter out shots of male genitalia, TechCrunch reports.

Changes could also include a system that flags users who are consistently "nexted" -- skipped past -- presumably because they are exposing themselves or otherwise being disgusting."

Feds Halt Berm-Building Dredging

Posted: 28 Jun 2010 02:21 PM PDT

It is almost if they are intentionally trying to make the effects of the BP oil spill much worse then they have to be. The level of delay and incompetence is almost beyond belief.

http://hotair.com/archives/2010/06/23/feds-halt-berm-building-dredging-by-louisiana

"The feds did start building sand berms to keep the oil out of Louisiana wetlands, but late yesterday they blocked those efforts to save the Louisiana coast:


The federal government is shutting down the dredging that was being done to create protective sand berms in the Gulf of Mexico.



The berms are meant to protect the Louisiana coastline from oil. But the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Department has concerns about where the dredging is being done.


If the federal government has "concerns" over the location of the dredging, then they should have made that decision immediately.  After all, they have had 64 days now in which to react to the disaster by building these berms themselves.  Governor Bobby Jindal has been shouting about this very issue since almost the first days of the crisis, along with skimmers, boom, and all sorts of other efforts.


Now, more than two months after the spill started, the government is still vacillating on the precise location from to dredge, a decision that should have been made in hours, not months.  It's yet another example of a lack of leadership and engagement on this crisis.  Instead of throwing every available resource at the spill, the people in charge are debating the finer points of sand dredging as the oil washes up on shore.  It's as if this is a  theoretical construct in a graduate-school bull session rather than a real-world disaster requiring actual leadership and decisiveness."

Petraeus to Remove 'Courageous Restraint' Medal?

Posted: 28 Jun 2010 02:17 PM PDT

Petraeus appears set to undo the 'Courageous Restraint' Medal which has put allied forces in danger. It would be a welcomed move; civilian lives should not needlessly be put in jeopardy, but the lives of you troops must reasonably come first.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/06/25/petraeus-modify-afghanistan-rules-engagement-source-says

"A military source close to Gen. David Petraeus told Fox News that one of the first things the general will do when he takes over in Afghanistan is to modify the rules of engagement to make it easier for U.S. troops to engage in combat with the enemy, though a Petraeus spokesman pushed back on the claim.

Troops on the ground and some military commanders have said the strict rules -- aimed at preventing civilian casualties -- have effectively forced the troops to fight with one hand tied behind their backs."

Israel Arming in Saudi Arabia?

Posted: 28 Jun 2010 02:13 PM PDT

Given recent statements by both sides this would not be completely out of the realm of possibility, though Saudi Arabia and Israel would at first blush seem very strange bed fellows. Scratch the surface though and you see two historic enemies who have good reason to put their own hostilities aside at least as long as necessary to prevent Iran from getting a viable Nuke.

http://www.jpost.com/MiddleEast/Article.aspx?id=179610

"Israel Air Force aircraft dropped off large quantities of military gear at a Saudi Arabian military base a week ago, in preparation for a potential attack on Iran, a number of Iranian and Israeli news outlets have reported.

The unconfirmed report, first published by the semi-official Iranian news agency Fars and the Islam Times Web site, claimed that on June 18 and 19, Israeli helicopters unloaded military equipment and built a base just over 8 km. outside the northwestern city of Tabuk, the closest Saudi city to Israel, located just south of Jordan. All civilian flights into and out of the city were said to have been canceled during the Israeli drop-off, and passengers were reportedly compensated by the Saudi authorities and accommodated in nearby hotels."

Supreme Court (5-4) - 'Second Amendment Gives Americans a Fundamental Right to Bear Arms'

Posted: 28 Jun 2010 10:33 AM PDT

Two important gun cases decided, though the fight for the right to bear arms is not over yet with specifics that now need to be litigated. This is a positive framework though for those who believe strongly in that right.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/28/AR2010062802134_pf.html

"The Supreme Court ruled for the first time Monday that the Second Amendment provides all Americans a fundamental right to bear arms, a long-sought victory for gun rights advocates who have chafed at federal, state and local efforts to restrict gun ownership.
...
The case is Bilski v. Kappos.

The guns case was the logical sequel to the court's 5 to 4 decision in District of Columbia v. Heller. That decision established for the first time that the Second Amendment's "right to keep and bear arms" referred to an individual right, not one related to military service."

Germany Crushes England 4-1, But Because of a Horrid Call?

Posted: 27 Jun 2010 08:29 PM PDT

Germany went up two, then England seemed to rally. They scored, then about a minute later they scored again. Well; they did get the ball into the German goal, but the ref did not count it. Everyone there saw, clear as day, the ball was in. Had the goal rightly counted England would have gone into the second have tied having rallied from a 2-0 deficit. Instead they came out down one and the Germans ran away with the game. I can not tell you how, or even if, the game would have played out differently had the ref made the right call. The fact that it might have though ... bad calls should not determine a game.

Video embedded below.



http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/worldcup2010/3031550/Germany-4-England-1.html

"Uruguayan assistant ref Mauricio Espinosa, who must have been half-blind, somehow failed to notice that Frank Lampard's shot had travelled a good four feet over the line after rattling the underside of the bar.

It would have got England back level at 2-2 from 2-0 down.
...
German journalists in the press box found it all highly amusing.

Was this revenge for 1966 and Geoff Hurst's infamous goal?

Hurst's was debatable, Lampard's wasn't even an argument.

Capello claimed, had the goal been given, it would have been a different game - that psychologically the whole dynamic would have changed."

Did Obama Drop The 'N-Bomb' (Nationalize) on BP?

Posted: 27 Jun 2010 04:33 PM PDT

Let me state right off the bad that this post is entirely based on conjecture; but reasoned logic none the less. Why did BP agree to put $20 billion in a fund not under their direct control? You have to work backwards a bit here. This was not in exchange for an agreement that it would be a cap. This also precludes them from cutting off liability for an amount less then that in the event of legal excuse. It is not some 'good corporate citizen' because if they really wanted to they should be able to get money to those effected by the oil spill much more efficiently then by adding a governmental layer of bureaucracy.

Once you get through all the affirmative reasons it is not, you are left flipping it around and asking what were they trying to prevent. The only thing that comes to mind is Obama dropping the 'N-bomb', Nationalization. It did not necessarily have to be with that word, but some other threat of taking over significant portions of BP or in another way substantially lowering the value of the corporate entity beyond the $20 billion. Something which made handing over the $20 billion, which seems a bad decision, the lesser of two evils.
