Facebook has banned photos of Grayson James Walker, a child born with n which anencephaly, a condition in which a baby is born without parts of his brain.  

His mother Heather walker arranged for a photographer to take pictures of her child to be taken as had been done with her other children.  Grayson died as expected that day of his condition.  

Facebook consequently deleted the photos and when his mother reposted them, they banned her.  

 

Heather Walker recently posted pictures of Grayson without his hat on.

"Not long after, Facebook deleted them because of the content" she said.  "They allow people to post almost nude pictures of themselves, profanity, and so many other things but I'm not allowed to share a picture of God's beautiful creation."

Walker and her Facebook friends decided to re-post baby Grayon's photos in protest, and the mother is now on a 24-hour ban from the social networking website.

It also states that the campaign “may also collect information about the type of mobile device you use, your device’s unique ID, the type of mobile Internet browsers you use, and information about the location of your device.”

 

Online Users Climb the Great Firewalls of China to Obama's Google+ Page

Chinese Internet users have flooded President Obama's Google+ page, somehow working around the firewalls of China's servers, mostly with their mobile phones.

In recent days, some Chinese Internet users found they could unexpectedly freely access Mr. Obama's Google Plus website, mostly on their mobile devices.

Some comments left by the Chinese called for free speech and human rights. Others asked for information on getting U.S. "green cards" for immigration. Some more extreme comments urged President Obama to work “to free” the Chinese people. 

 

Homer Hickam, author of Crater, Rocket Boys with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Homer Hickam, author of Crater, Rocket Boys.

Hickam said the military is the real big player in space.  There is the NASA robot in space program and humans in space program.  He said we need to get humans back in space and that Gingrich seems to remember the stimulus that the space program provided our economy with new ideas and technologies.

Hickam said that we should aim for getting back into Earth's orbit from any airport and other innovative approaches.  Then this can progress to Moon colonisation similar to the South Pole station.  He said it is wrong that the US has to buy a seat on a Russian Soyuz shuttle to get back to the space station.  He cited commercial flights coming into vogue as with Elon Musk's efforts.  

Wikipedia Blacked Out...Sort of

After all the fanfare about Wikipedia's Internet blackout in protest over proposed Internet piracy laws, it turns out the highly ranked website is doing it... sort of...

Kids can still do their homework and journalists get fast background info by doing the following:

Wikipedia shut down its English-language sitesb today in protest at plans to police the internet and combat piracy - but users have been quick to find 'back doors' past the blackout, such as using mobile phones to access the site.

Only the English-language version is affected, and only the version accessed via certain browsers such as PC and iPad. Phone browsers do not load the 'black' protest page at all. 

Although an estimated 100 million could be affected by the move, it's also easy to access PC pages by reloading Wikipedia pages to remove the 'protest' page, then pressing 'stop'.

 

 

Hackers Get Google Certificate; Imperils Gmail

Hackers have acquired a digital Google certificate, courtesy of a Dutch certificate provider.  This allows criminals to hack into all of Google's domains, especially Gmail.

"This is a wildcard for any of the Google domains," said Roel Schouwenberg, senior malware researcher with Kaspersky Lab, in an email interview Monday.

"[Attackers] could poison DNS, present their site with the fake cert and bingo, they have the user's credentials," said Andrew Storms, director of security operations at nCircle Security.

Letterman Threatened With Paralysis, Tongue Cutting By Online Islamist Terrorist

David Letterman has been targeted for a tongue cutting  by an Islamist for a joke he told on a June 8th show about one of Osama bin Laden's sidekicks, Ilyas Kashmiri via an jihadist website Shumukh-al-Islam. 

Will Hollywood go mum and continue to pander ot this sort of terror threat by carrying on about Islamophobia and kowtowing to political correctness instead of portraying the real threat?

Accordingly, the commenter who goes by the name was angered by the joke David made about the death of one of Osama Bin Laden's lieutenants, Ilyas Kashmiri. While the talk show host isn't a Jewish, Umar called on Muslims in the United States to "cut the tongue of this lowly Jew and shut it forever." 

"He showed his evil nature and deep hatred for Islam and Muslims, and said that Ilyas Kashmiri was killed and he joined bin Laden," part of the millitant's death threat posting also read. "We ask Allah to paralyze his tongue and grant the sincere monotheists his neck." Stars and Stripes was first to report the news.

Instead, Obama will “meet with industry officials at the White House to discuss the first of their kind fuel efficiency standards for work trucks, buses, and other heavy duty vehicles,” the White House said in an updated daily guidance for the president. This meeting will be closed press. 

During and immediately following Obama’s remarks to the press from the White House on Monday, the Dow plummeted hundreds of points.

As Rome Burns White House Rickrolling Blogger

The White House has time on its hands as the major action is taking place in the Congress on the debt ceiling.  Nowhere is that more apparent than on Twitter where White House chat operatives decided on rickrolling a blogger who complained about a boring WH presser.  He got linked to Rick Astley's 1987, “Never Gonna Give You Up.”

According to ABC's Jake Tapper:

During the White House briefing earlier today, David Wiggs of Franklin, TN, aka @wiggsd, tweeted:  “This WH correspondence (sic) briefing isn't nearly as entertaining as yesterday's. #TCOT #WHchat”

Oddly enough, the White House responded: “@wiggsd Sorry to hear that. Fiscal policy is important, but can be dry sometimes. Here's something more fun: tinyurl.com/y8ufsnp #WHChat.”

Journalists have been ordered to focus on "touching stories" and avoid questioning official accounts of the disaster, which killed at least 39 people, Chinese bloggers and the U.S.-based China Digital Times website. said.
