Always Use Protection: A Teen's Guide to Safe Computing by Dan Appleman - This book is geared to teenagers, and it is a bit old, but it explains things very easily and hammers home the simple lessons, like Don't open attachments etc. It isn't too preachy, but it gets the message across.
Well I actually looked at the pdf report. It starts off with "What do the swine flu and hackers have in common". That started to get a laugh, but then the executive summary says that web vulnerabilities are getting better because of Obama. How can anyone take this seriously??
George Bush & Ted Kennedy put into law a doctrine called "no child left behind". This enshrines a noble thought, that the USA shoudl educate all of its children, but in effect it focuses all of our resources on those children least able to repay that investment in their education. In my daughter's school, there are no programs for advanced students, there are reasonably adequate programs for "typical" learners, and extravagant resources spent on special education. In our district, special needs students account for 20% of the population but use about 60% of the funding. The town needs to provide funding for special needs students from the early intervention years of 2 until the age of 21.This funding includes transportation out of district if required, all at no cost to the parents.
I believe that is what is meant by the left wing running the education system. The total belief that we need to help the least fortunate and let the best and brightest struggle on their own.
Combine this lunacy with the sports worship of American culture and it is a wonder that we produce any gifted students.
These are the same banks that are feasting on usurious interchange rates that all merchants pay to let their customers use credit cards. These are the same banks that want to foist off all responsibility for securing their credit cards onto the people least equipped, i.e. the card holders and the merchants, by inventing PCI security standards. Yeah, this makes sense, 72% of the banks have insider fraud, but as they tell us the biggest security flaw is at the merchants location.
Car is parked on public street, and cop does indeed clip/tape the gps on. Cop could not enter private property i.e. garage to do that. If you removed the gps unit after a warrant you could be charged with damage to police property. Assuming that you didn't "damage" it I'm sure you'd be charged with something but it would be a tough sell.
