As the session begins, the detainee stands naked, except for a hood covering his head. Guards shackle his arms and legs, then slip a small collar around his neck. The collar will be used later; according to CIA guidelines for interrogations, it will serve as a handle for slamming the detainee's head against a wall.

08/29/09

A draft bill in the US senate will give President broad powers in the event of a ‘cybersecurity emergency.’ An earlier draft of the bill, which explicitly allowed the White House to disconnect private computers and networks when deemed necessary, was widely criticized. Instead of granting precise powers, the new proposal from Jay Rockefeller (D-W.V.) would give the President the power to do whatever he deems necessary to ‘direct the national response to the cyber threat’ whenever he ‘finds it necessary for the national defense and security.’ This would presumably include the disconnection of suspicious users and vulnerable targets, with no clear guidelines on when this is appropriate.

It should be fairly obvious by now that US consumers are undergoing a generational shift and will not be able to lead the way out of the recession as they have in the past. Nor will they miraculously "bounce back" and provide demand for products made abroad.
