1 dead after Fort Meade gate crashingNSA: Car failed to stop before police opened fire
UPDATED 6:30 PM EDT Apr 01, 2015
Compare the date of the crime to the date I wrote the Opening Post.
FORT MEADE, Md. One person is dead after a firefight erupted Monday morning when two people in a car tried to ram a National Security Agency gate at Fort Meade and then smashed into a police vehicle blocking the road, officials said.
Officers open fire after two people refuse to stop a stolen car at the National Security Agency gate at Fort Meade and then smashed into a police vehicle blocking the road, officials said.
Compare the date of this crime with the date of "THAT" main article, where I first noticed excessive use of the word "THAT."
"It's overwhelming to me. It's an eye-opener, first of all, because that could have been anybody being in a situation like that, not to say that just anybody would steal a car, but we could be in a bad situation and not in a good head-space," Leonard said. "I'm sure that they didn't leave their house knowing that they wouldn't come home that day or that that would be the end."

China certainly has space hawks in high places. In 2009, PLA Air Force chief Xu Qiliang said competition between military forces in space is a historical inevitability. Qiliang had to retract his statements after then-president Hu Jintao swiftly contradicted him, the Pentagon report notes. But far from being punished, Qiliang became the first air force officer promoted to a vice-chairmanship on the Central Military Committee, a body helmed by Xi Jinping himself that serves as a combination of the National Security Council and Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Chinese military doctrine sees counter-space weapons as central to what they call informationalized warfare, an appalling neologism but an insightful concept that unifies what Americans (at least outside the Navy) still tend to see in separate categories of space, cyber, and electronic warfare. If you want to deny an enemy access to satellite intelligence and communications, after all, there are many ways to skin that cat: shoot down the spy satellite, shoot down the communications satellite relaying its data, jam their transmissions, or hack the whole network. The weapons of such warfare include not just missiles but lasers, jamming, and hacking the latter an area of significant Chinese successes: http://breakingdefense.com/2015/05/pentagon-reports-on-chinas-satellite-killers/

Does Xu Qiliang, the first air force officer promoted to a vice-chairmanship on the Central Military Committee, a body helmed by Xi Jinping himself, look like he P.L.A.N.S to provide a "good time" for ANY Chinese satellite administrator or online agent, who continues to make trouble for Jeffersons Ghost by disrupting his money or computer? What happened to the previous Chinese Internet Czar? What happened to Chinese princlings who mismanaged Chinese satellite facilities last wekk? It is a good thing that China denies that torture of traitors is abolished!
BEIJING The outspoken gatekeeper of Chinas internet, who led a global push for the countrys growing state surveillance and online censorship, is relinquishing his post, state news media reported on Wednesday.
The move by Lu Wei, best known as Chinas internet czar, came as a surprise to analysts. But it is unlikely to lead to any significant pullback from restrictive domestic internet controls and aggressive policies meant to wean the country off its reliance on Western technology firms.
Given the opacity of the Chinese government, it was not clear whether Mr. Lu was in trouble or in line for a promotion.
In a previous post, I wasn't writing about anyone in particular "taunting" people; but at least one member of DU took great pleasure in taunting anyone they thought was weak enough to be hurt by their replies. If their computer still functions, they are able to read the previous remarks. Would anyone like to engage in "MEANINGFUL DIALOG?
