Carry a camera, and you are more apt to get the images.

Cleveland City Council folks are being evasive--they know that the shady contractor Peter Tien has asked the Mayor and Council's approval for some up front money.  Fortunately, Ohio Citizen Action (and to his credit, Councilman Brian Cummins) are on top of the shell game:

Realneo - Original news source? and/or Syndicator/Aggregator? Does Google care?

Submitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 01/29/2012 - 12:08.

Like every reader, my attention is grabbed by news reports about creativity and unique events.  

Today, Google News carried a piece about the two Canadian high school fellows who sent a helium balloon with cameras to the stratisphere and then recovered the cameras.  The news media has dubbed the advanture "Lego Man in Space" because the balloon carried a Lego man holding the Canadian maple leaf flag and the on board cameras recorded images of the man/flag against the curvature of the earth.

There are many messages which may have significance which you want to transfer from your cell phone and save on your laptop - so you are not at the mercy of the cell phone company storing/losing them for you. 
 
I was asked to help figure out how to extract and archive to computer a voice mail  (from my acquaintances’  old friend who had left a message and had since died – my friend wanted to preserve that last voice)  on my friend’s phone.

Examining the levels of mania in any environment require the examiner to fairly and reasonably evaluate the defining normal values of the environment and all the factors of the various participants. Failure to equitably balance the concepts can result in critical mistakes and disregard for the truth. In most cases, it requires a degree to make such a diagnosis.

PREHISTORIC AND ANCIENT HUMAN SOCIETIES - Energy beam coming from the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun

Almost everything they teach us about the ancient history is wrong: origin of men, civilizations and pyramids. Homo sapiens sapiens is not a result of the evolution and biologists will never find a “missing link”, because the intelligent man is product of genetic engineering. Sumerians are not the beginning of the civilized men, but rather beginning of another cycle of humanity. And finally, original pyramids, most superior and oldest, were made by advanced builders who knew energy, astronomy and construction better than we do.

A vast army of heavily armed criminals has embedded itself in every major city in the United States.  In fact, nearly every community in America is now affected by these thugs.  Drugs, theft and brutal violence are all part of the every day lifestyle of the members of this army.  They aggressively recruit our young people and floods of illegal immigrants are joining their ranks.  Once civil unrest erupts in America, they will go on a crime spree that will be absolutely unprecedented and they will burn large areas of some U
