Does this mean anything?
If anyone can tell me what this means would they please help explain it? Maybe someone can put a link in to where it came from so we can see if there is any text to explain it? I mean - all it seems to be is a bunch of boxes with names, acronyms, and nonsense text inside them connected by random lines.
This just in.....
Thanks for taking the time to read my post. |

Guerilla protest tech at Republican Convention
With a four-day security budget of $76 million and 10,000 police officers facing protestors, the stage is set for anarchy. And that's just what some activists will be resorting to during the Republican National Convention later this month—only they'll be trading black masks for radically democratic, tech-savvy protest tools.
Transcending beloved old-school methods, this new wave of activists will use decentralized and distributed technologies to level the playing field with law enforcement. "There's been an incredible technological buildup on the side of the police, and on the other side people are still holding cardboard placards and making puppets," says artist and engineer Natalie Jeremijenko. "In the arms race of direction action, there's been incredible changes in the strategies, the training, and the equipment the police use in treating this political process." But the projects she and others embrace are only anarchistic in a strategic sense. While Anarchy suggests a political philosophy loaded with baggage, the term’s Greek origins have little to do with chaos or violence: arkhos (ruler) plus the prefix a (the absence of). This leaderlessness—“uncoordinated actions toward a coordinated goal,” as Siva Vaidhyanathan puts it in his book The Anarchist in the Library—is what links these new-school approaches:
• Flash radiojacking: Jeremijenko and the Bureau of Inverse Technology (BIT), will use a special transmitter to break into radio frequencies reserved for corporate stations, giving bursts of information so brief that the FCC can’t lock onto their transmission location. During the World Economic Forum demonstrations, BIT called attention to the Bush administration’s bogus claims about the safety of the air after 9/11. Each time New York’s airborne pollution surpassed the “safe” level, a warning bleep interrupted broadcasts of the local NPR affiliate.
• Bikes Against Bush: Joshua Kinberg will hit the streets on an “internet-enabled tactical media ‘weapon’ for non-violent creative resistance.” Outfitted with a laptop, webcam, GPS device, and cellphone, his tech-laden bike will receive text messages sent by visitors to www.BikesAgainstBush.com. At the push of a button, he’ll select messages to print on the pavement using a robotic chalk-spraying device; each anti-Bush screed will be time-stamped and gps-mapped on the website. The bike’s maneuverability effectively makes all of New York a free-speech zone.
• Backpack broadcast: Media collective neuroTransmitter will be toting com_muni_ports throughout the convention. These low-power, backpack-mounted radio transmitters will provide localized, on-the-fly media broadcasts, bearing witness, live, to events you won’t hear about on local Clear Channel stations.
• WiFi on Wheels: Yury Gitman will be pedaling his MagicBike during the convention. Offering free internet connectivity wherever it goes, it’ll wire the UK-based collective OpenSorcery so members can play a military simulator online and on the streets of New York using high-power projectors. Operations in Urban Terrain (OUT), a first-person-shooter game, aims to critique the militarization of civilian life following 9/11 – a condition the group describes as “ a government . . . at war with its own citizens, with soldiers in the midst of the fabric of ordinary life” – by literally broadcasting the game’s violence on city walls.
• Inflated Crowd Counts: When the demonstration ends, police will inevitably lowball crowd sizes, while activists will present overly optimistic numbers. The Bureau of Inverse Technology will calculate verifiable figures, thanks to a wireless video camera tethered to a helium balloon high above the action. A rollerblader will maneuver the balloon throughout the entire crowd while the high-resolution camera beams visual data to laptops on the ground. The result: a composite image that’ll be analyzed by software similar to the kind used for counting microscopic cells in labs. “If Bush can dismiss this as a ‘focus group’ with the wave of his hand, how do you answer that? You have to have a higher standard of evidence, you have to have more compelling images,” says Jeremijenko. “And we end up with a family aero-portrait--a self-documentation of our action on the streets.”

Wow!! High - tech protesting!! What about bluejacking people as well? I hope all this comes to pass - it would be interesting to see what kind of an impact all this high tech gadgetery has during the republican convention. A Wi-Fi bike, and another one that spray-paints messages? Cool!!!

President Bush visits a primary school classroom. They are in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher asks the President if he would like to lead the discussion on the word 'tragedy.'
The illustrious leader asks the class for an example of a tragedy.
One little boy stands up and offers: "If my best friend, who lives on a
farm is playing in the field and a tractor runs him over and kills him,
that would be a 'tragedy'." "No, " says bush, "that would be an
'accident."
A little girl raises her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a 'tragedy'." "I'm afraid not," explains the President. "That's what we would call a 'great loss'."
The room goes silent. No other children volunteered. Bush searches the room.
"Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a 'tragedy'?"
Finally, at the back of the room a small boy raises his hand. In a quiet voice he says: "If Air Force One, carrying you, Mr. President, were struck by a 'friendly fire' missile and blown to smithereens, that would be a 'tragedy'."
"Fantastic!" exclaims Bush. "That's right. And can you tell me why that would be a tragedy'?"
"Well," says the boy, "because it certainly wouldn't be a 'great loss' and it probably wouldn't be an 'accident,' either."

Filmmaker Moore Quotes Goss on Lack of CIA Credentials
U.S. Congressman Porter Goss, President Bush's nominee for CIA director, could be his own worst enemy when it comes to making the case that he deserves to lead the U.S. intelligence agency.
"I couldn't get a job with CIA today. I am not qualified," the Florida Republican told documentary-maker Michael Moore's production company during the filming of the anti-Bush movie "Fahrenheit 9/11."
A day after Bush picked Goss for the top U.S. spy job, Moore on Wednesday released an excerpt from a March 3 interview in which the 65-year-old former House of Representatives intelligence chief recounts his lack of qualifications for employment as a modern CIA staffer.
"I don't have the language skills. I, you know, my language skills were romance languages and stuff. We're looking for Arabists today. I don't have the cultural background probably," Goss is quoted in an interview transcript.
"And I certainly don't have the technical skills, uh, as my children remind me every day: 'Dad you got to get better on your computer.' Uh, so, the things that you need to have, I don't have."
Goss, who served with the CIA clandestine services in Latin America and Europe in the 1960s, was not immediately available for comment.
He appears in Moore's film, the most financially successful documentary in history, during a segment devoted to the USA Patriot Act, an anti-terrorism measure.
Moore told Reuters that Goss, who until Tuesday was chairman of the House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, granted an interview to two of his producers without first checking to see who they worked for.
"You'd think the person who was the head of the intelligence committee would ask a few more questions," said Moore.
"The reality is that Porter Goss was in charge of the oversight of the CIA during a time when the CIA didn't do its job, which in part resulted in the loss of lives of 3,000 people," he said via telephone from New York.
A White House spokesman declined to comment specifically on the Goss interview but described the lawmaker as "the most qualified man for the job."
Goss is expected to appear at confirmation hearings before the Senate intelligence committee next month.
