Art and News Posts

I was glad to see that the Buffalo News had a story about the Pride Parade. It didn't surprise me, but them not have a story on in it wouldn't have surprised me they had one picture from in in Black and white and then one on the picture page. They also had an iteresting article on 6-6-6 and some of the meaning of it. Another story that I'm surprised they covered but glad they did.

With MIA 06 and The Artfestival coming up this weekend I thought I should include some of the posters or art that I have in my house. I know the pics are not the best sory about that. Maybe sometime this week I'll put up some Farie Tattoo pics. The last pic is one I forgot to post on my pride parade photos.

Pride Parade 06

First of all I think I may have repeated on photo twice and if so I'm sorry about that. I also hope I'm not the only one who posts some pictures. I belive (e:paul) has video. But with my computer there is no point of trying to watch it, it moves so slow.

"time for a little Reflection":

When I walked up to Elmwood I should have walked diffarntly that way I would have came up from behind on the Kleinhans parking lot plus I would have been on the other side of the street. Then I could have taken some parking lot photos and some better shots of the protesters also.

Had battery trouble otherwise I would have more pictures. There was a nice classic car and a few other pictures I would have liked to take.

Thought it was cool that a couple budhists marched with signs.

I was a little surprised when some one I knew called my name, I tried to yell hello back but not sure if she heard me or not or if I was quick enough.

It is kinda strange to watch a parade where there isn't a crowd around you. Wich then led people to come up and give me stuff. I think I have a couple Animals that can get the beads.

I didn't know their was a parade today, untill this morning. I also wasn't sure how long it was going to be. I thought it might be a little bit longer then it was but it seemed to be a good length of time and floats.

i lime

I admit i didn't wind up doing much yesterday. I did wind up hanging out with my sis and downloading music. She has limewire. Then with a little online help I figured out how to open the songs downloaded with itunes. Then they are added to itunes and you can put them on your ipod. I myself never download music. But I also have dail up so that may be one of the reasons why. But generaly CD's I burn are ones that I wouldn't spend the money on. If there is a CD I like I will go buy it. But that being said I think peer sharing is good for the music industry. If some band only has one good song why waste money on the entire CD when you can just download one song. One of these days I need to get a New CD spinner I'm out of room for my CD's. I'm thinking today might become a DVD day. I was thinking about going to the falls yestrday but didn't like the weather that is the same reason I didn't look for more guitars for hope. Maybe later if I don't wind up doing anything I may post some pics, but who knows. I thought I was going to talk more about music then I did oh well.

On line Records there goes our freedom

At the end of this article about us web being choricled I have some of my thoughts It would cool to hear some others thoughts and see if I'm the only one who feals this way.

U.S. wants Web use chronicled




Child pornography, terrorism are targets

By ROBERT SCHMIDT
Bloomberg News
6/2/2006

WASHINGTON - The federal government is asking Internet companies including Microsoft Corp., Google Inc. and America OnLine to preserve the records of customers' Web activity in order to aid investigations of terrorism and child pornography cases.
Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales and FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III made the request last week at a meeting with industry executives, said Brian Roehrkasse, a Justice Department spokesman. More talks are scheduled for today. Also included in the discussions are representatives from victims' rights groups, privacy advocates and law enforcement officials, he said.

"We have begun initial discussions with Internet service providers and others on this issue of data retention to help the department with bolstering its investigative efforts," said Roehrkasse.

Gonzales is pressing Internet companies for more cooperation as the Justice Department focuses on terrorism and child pornography cases. The move has prompted complaints from privacy advocates and led to a clash earlier this year with Google, the word's largest search engine.

The agency has asked Internet companies to retain records such as lists of e-mails sent and received or information on Web searches. Authorities wouldn't ask the companies to keep the content of e-mails and would use standard legal channels, such as seeking a subpoena, before obtaining information, Roehrkasse said.

The Justice Department has no legal authority to require companies to keep data on their customers and would need to ask Congress for that ability, Roehrkasse said. He said there has been no decision on how long companies would need to store the records.

However, the Associated Press reported that Mueller suggested a period of two years.

New York-based Verizon Communications, the No. 2 U.S. telephone company, and Philadelphia-based Comcast Corp., the largest U.S. cable provider, were among the companies at last week's meeting, Roehrkasse said. AOL is the Internet unit of New York-based Time Warner, the world's largest media company.

Gonzales said in April that Internet service providers had hurt child pornography probes by not keeping data long enough. He said he would personally reach out to chief executive officers of leading providers to resolve the problem.

"The investigation and prosecution of child predators depends critically on the availability of evidence that is often in the hands of Internet service providers," Gonzales said in a April 20 speech at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in Alexandria, Va. "This evidence will be available for us to use only if the providers retain the records for a reasonable amount of time."

Earlier this year, the Justice Department sparred with Google over a request for information on its customer searches. In March, a federal judge ordered the Mountain View, Calif.-based company to turn over some of the records demanded by the government.

Google initially had refused to give the government the information citing privacy concerns. Redmond, Wash.-based Microsoft, AOL and Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Yahoo! Inc. cooperated with the Justice Department. Yahoo is the most-visited U.S. Web site. Microsoft, the world's biggest software company, owns the MSN Internet service.

"We strongly support Attorney General Gonzales' interest in assuring that the Internet is safe for everyone, especially children and families," Phil Reitinger, senior security strategist for Microsoft, said in an e-mailed statement. "But data retention is a complicated issue with implications not only for efforts to combat child pornography but also for security, privacy, safety, and availability of low-cost or free Internet services."

One Internet executive familiar with the talks with the Justice Department said one worry is that once retained, the records could be made available for any criminal investigation or civil case, "down to a bad divorce, up to a music company asking for people who visited a file trading site."






I admit this article is good but it kinda scares me. Is terrorism and childporn a problem? Yes. Should online companies when they know of a possible terror attack or sexual abuse be mandated to report it, probobly. But I think what the government wants is a little bit to much. The best way to take away someones freedom of speach and information and privacy is to say there is this evil in this case child porn, that we have to stop. Then you get people to give up there own rights. Has it come to this yet no. But it looks like it could possibley if this passes. Whats to stop someone who works in the government to send an eltronic version of a supena to some internet company then that company sends that guy all your info. He is just one guy he could misuse your personal prvate information. When a crime is commited and the internet is used then the internet company should give all redords over to the authorities. But they shouldn't be forced to keep records of every e-mail of every user for two years. Once this passes then it will 5 years. Then it will be that keeping records is to much of a burden for internet providers. But guess what they can send the info to the government. Plus that way they don't need to bother them every time a crime is commited. And before you know it the government is not only wire taping private citizens they are monitoring web traffic and (e:mails). Who says that they then don't go after people who have decenting opinions. You may say that sounds crazzy but that is what the Chinesse government is trying to do with Yahoo and Google. It is verry easy for a country to turn into a tolotroin rule because they decide to give up there rights to feal safe. People really need to think about there freedom first and not let themselves and there own government be there own opressers

nymphomaid and the devil

First of all the day after my 2 year estrip aniversy is 6-6-06 or 06-06-06. I wonder if the earth will crack open and and demons and devils and evil creatures will kill people and pull them down to hell. Maybe there will be vampire sex on the street and birds will fly backwards. That will just be from the new version of the Omen opening and pissing off the oldschool fans of it who think the new version sucks. Maybe that is why it has been so hot so lately because hell is coming to get us :) .

My original reason for posting was because I thought Of a way to make everyone on (e:strip) a lot happier and feal better, or at least me. Having a maid or even for those with kids a nanny who is a nmmphomanic. She would clean my place and make things neat and tiddy and maybe even do laundry. Then since she is addicted and needs sex all the time, she would be paid in sex. The sex would be fun plus be exercise. For those who arn't single not only would it be exercise but it wouldn't really be cheating because it would be how you where paying the maid. Now the tough part finding one of these ladies.

Hot

I'm about to go on a rant here. I know it being hot when you have to work sucks. I know some people are used to AC and have physical jobs and when it is hot it makes it tough. Where I work it is verry Hot and do I complain yes but i complain about it being hot in the building not the weather being hot and there is a diffearance. For those of you who work it in heat I feal for you. All I can say is stay hydrated and try to adjust overtime it will still be hot but you will adjust a little bit to it.

But what I can't stand is these people who complain about the weather all the time. Yeah I know it sucks that it is cold and can snow for eight months of the year and that winter ends in one year and starts before that same year is over. I get sick of the cold and ICE to. But what pisses me off is the people who complain all winter about the cold and snow. Then they go there is no spring. Then it is to hot during the summer. Shut the fuck up and be glad it isn't snowing you fucking asshole 2 months ago it was to cold now it is to hot. Wait that leaves fall, well got some bad news for ya we really don't have a fall. I know everyone has the type of weather they prefer and that is fine. But to hate all the Buffalo weather is just being a Winer. I not talking about people who want the winter to end once we get to christmas that is differant. If you don't like the weather calm down and wait till the weekend. I love the hot weather but I don't like working in it. I love the sun but don't like what it does to my skin. Maybe I need a flock of chicks to cover my skin when out in the sun. In Buffalo there are two ways people look at things. They look at them and try to embrace them or they complain. I guess it is the complaining that really bothers me, it is a negative out look on things. I'm not talking about when someone pisses you off that is differant. But everytime you think man is it hot out here remember that day when you where walking and shaking and sliping and sliding on the ice. I say if you can't stomach the tempature here move to northern Califorina. Belive it or not we (depending on where) have warmer summers then they do. I'm sorry to go off on a rant. No matter what the weather is lets try to enjoy it. lets not complain before we have tried to adjust to it first ok.

Hopefully in a future post I will have a few pictures of art from my house. Also hopefully soon I will put up some more interesting pics I found on line of Tattoos.

Art festivals

(e:metalpeter,361) That is a link to a journal with a few pics of Music Is Art 05. June 10th and 11th is The Artfestival and Music Is art. Two seperate festivals but in the same general area of town. I enjoy both festivals and often go between them. There are usaly some bands that I know and have to see and then a bunch of bands that I have no idea who they are. Plus at Allen town I allways try to find something to buy. I usaly see a lot of stuff that I like but some of it is kinda exspensive.

On another note I had a nice memorial day. I wound up going to the waterfront for some time and taking pictures of some of the memorials. One thing as I looked at the amazing polish one. I know that is weird to say but it is really nice lookin one. I thought who keeps them looking clean and gets rid of the flowers people leave when the flowers die. After enjoying the Marina the family went to our friends house. There where a few people there and we had a good time. The only odd thing is one of my sisters friends had a friend come over and um how can I put this Her rack was amazing and I'm trying not to look but being taller it was kinda hard not to man they where really nice. Some ladies really like to show them off, that was strange she really was a cutie pie (in a sexy way not as in the way Rosie O'donell used to say it on her show in referance to kids). The weather Has really ben verry nice these last few days.

If the Sabres win tongiht they are still in it. But if they lose then they are elimanated they have to win. I never did make it to a playoff game. I know something is going on next weekend but not sure what is is I think the Juilet Dagger is playing near my house. Is there a pride perade if so that might make some interesting pictures since last year they started about 3 blocks from my house.

Great out

Wow it is really nice out I have to go for a walk somewhare in few minutes, before we go out for the afternoon. I can't belive the sabres lost last night and how could I not stay up for the entire game. I had food and drink and was really into it next thing I know the game is over and something else is on I'm fucked up. I'm also going to try to change my user sound music to 30tilmars but don't know if I can cause it is some type of copywright protected CD. I have seen them once before they opened for I think Chevelle but not positive. I also am looking forward to seeing Yellowcard. Edgefest should be interesting I don't think I have anyold pictures from edgefest. That reminds me I did put up some new pictures on my webshots page some of them are from the party over the weekend at PMT's. The link listed under my links should work. Hope everybody has a great day off today and had a great weekend. I hope no one gets overworked to much next week. Someplaces have the same amount of work to get done but now have a day less to do it. Where I work things may get verry interesting next week for that reason. oh and one more thing "LETS GO SABRES!."

X Walk

I saw the new X Men Movie today. I thought it was verry good. Like (e:Enknot) I won't say much as I don't want to give anything away. It was preaty much what I was expecting wich is good. For those that see it stay through the end credits (as you should all ready do if you are a true movie fan, but most don't) and get the end of the movie.

I decided to walk Home and take some pictures there where a few things on my way that I was looking for but couldn't find, I must have had the adresses wrong. I was going to take pictures of the Histocial society and some big fancy houses around that area and maybe some more but Camara Battery Problems stoped my camara from working. So that stoped that but I still had a great walk. I wound up get a few CD's at New World Records. I went into to spot but didn't see any ice tea on the menu they must have iced tea on lemonade but I didn't see it so I left.

Hopefully I'll post some more pictures soon from my travels. I'm supposed to be going to one of those places on the riverfront for dinner then hopefully I'll make it to PMT's tonight. Hopefully I'll get some new bateries and take pics.
