  1. Well , I'm not surprised by their admission .

     

     

    Is any email service safe from the Governments prying eyes , you may as well add Microsoft and Yahoo to this story as well !

     

    The NSA has more power than the Elected Officials who are suppose to have oversight of them , the Elected officials are in the hip pockets of the multi-billion dollar corporations that fund their campaigns to get elected and time and again re-elected .  This is a cycle that will never end because the people have no one that cares about their privacy concerns in Washington .

     

     Let's just remember that this was all started under the guise of our security from terrorists threats , governments all over the world have been spying on it's citizens in the name of safety . How many CCTV 's are there now in your cities , how big are the budgets for local police depts. because around here they can afford to buy cell phone tracking equipment , new SUV's every year and get free hummers to drive from the Homeland security Dept. .

     

      Every big Tech Corporation is in bed with our government to get a Contract , so if that means they have to give the governments of the world a backdoor key to our information that's fine as long as they get to keep their Big monopolies in place .

     

     The internet as a whole is a risky place to do anything nowadays and it's not going to get any easier to try to keep your personal info private .

     

     Such Sadness :(

  2. I feel like I may be a bit of the Omega with a little Alpha type of person .

     

    I'm confident in my abilities to get a job done and will take the lead after watching someone struggle too long .

     

    I kind of keep to myself , and surround myself with the wife and kids for most of the time , good friends are very few that I completely trust .

     

     

    I'm not too fat and am not Lazy , but I'm not a Fitness freak either .

     

    I don't let things bother me so much now that I'm in my late 40's but there was a time that it was my way or everyone was wrong .

     

    Maybe not so much Alpha or Omega as much as getting older :rolleyes:


  3. A Tennessee judge has ordered a baby boy’s name to be changed from “Messiah” after deciding it is a title that has “only been earned by one person and that one person is Jesus Christ.”

    NBC station WBIR reported that the parents of the 7-month-old went to a child support hearing in Cocke County Chancery Court because they could not agree on his surname.

    However, Child Support Magistrate Lu Ann Ballew decided Thursday that the baby, Messiah DeShawn Martin, should be renamed “Martin DeShawn McCullough.”

     
     

    “The word Messiah is a title and it's a title that has only been earned by one person and that one person is Jesus Christ,” Ballew said, according to WBIR-TV.

    She said she made the decision in the best interests of the child.

    Seven-month-old Martin DeShawn McCullough is held by his mom Jaleesa Martin after a judge ruled he could not be called "Messiah."

    “It could put him at odds with a lot of people and at this point he has had no choice in what his name is,” Ballew said.

    On Sunday, Jaleesa Martin, the baby’s mother, told the station that she planned to appeal the decision.

    “I never intended on naming my son Messiah because it means God and I didn't think a judge could make me change my baby's name because of her religious beliefs,” she said.

    Martin said she liked how the name sounded alongside her two other children, Micah and Mason.

    “Everybody believes what they want so I think I should be able to name my child what I want to name him, not someone else,” she said.

    The appeal will go before the Cocke County chancellor on Sept. 17.
