Anonymous' message to the Iranian government
Hello, leaders of Iran. We are Anonymous.
As the eyes of the entire world hold you under close scrutiny, the eyes of the internet have taken a similar notice of your recent actions. While the governments of the world condemn you for your suppression of human rights, Anonymous has taken a particular interest in your recent attempts to censor the internet, not only for your own people, but for the citizens of the entire world.
Such suppression of dissent cannot go unpunished. By cutting off communication of the Iranian citizens to the rest of the world, you have made it clear to us that the most revered of human rights - the right to free speech - is no longer important to you. By seeking to silence the voice of the people in an election and subsequently seeking to silence criticism of such a gross cover-up, you have perpetuated the anger and rage of your people. Anonymous has therefore made it our mission to see to it that the voice of the Iranian people can be heard around the world.
Just like another authoritarian religious extremist group, Anonymous will tear down the walls of silence using only the truth - the truth that you are trying so hard to suppress by use of violence, intimidation, and fascist laws.
As your people continue to riot and to speak out against you; as you continue to beat and shoot your own citizens in the street; as you continue to lie to the face of the entire world; know that the internet is watching - and we do not like what we see.
Knowledge is free.
We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect us.
Beck's Record Club →
beck.com
Record Club, an informal meeting of various people to record an album in a day. An album will be chosen to be reinterpreted and used as a framework. Nothing rehearsed or arranged ahead of time. A track will be uploaded once a week on beck.com as well as through the web sites of those involved with the project.
Beck chose to start it off with VU’s The Velvet Underground & Nico. Not a bad choice. I would like to put up my vote for Sweetheart of the Rodeo.

To balance the budget, the governor has proposed closing more than 200 state parks, releasing prisoners early, selling state property, laying off state workers and cutting health care.
Under the governor’s plan, K-12 schools and community colleges would lose $5.3 billion over the coming year - on top of billions of dollars in recent reductions and payment delays.
The state would spend $7,806 per K-12 student in 2009-10, almost 10 percent less than two years ago, according to the Legislative Analyst’s Office.
Federal stimulus funds have prevented deeper cuts to a public school system that educates 6.3 million children, of which about a quarter do not speak English well, and nearly half are considered poor under federal guidelines.
School districts have already issued layoff notices to more than 30,000 teachers and other employees, and they could issue more pink slips this summer, according to the state Department of Education.
“All of the things that make schools vibrant and help students learn are on the chopping block, if they haven’t been cut already,” Robin Swanson, a spokeswoman for the Education Coalition, which advocates funding increases. “When school doors open in the fall, it’s going to be a very different public school system.”
We are so fucked.

Keep Their Heads Ringin’ by Dr. Dre.
I forgot how good it was until just now. Back when popular hip-hop was actually good. This track straight bumps. I’m excited for the new album. Don’t ever sleep on Dre.
Oregon woman obsessed with rabbits arrested again →
breitbart.com
TIGARD, Ore. (AP) - Authorities said a woman obsessed with rabbits is in trouble again: In violation of probation terms, she was found holed up in a hotel room with more than a dozen rabbits. Officers said they had to break into the room Tuesday and found eight adults and half a dozen baby rabbits, one dead. The police say some were caged, some roaming.
Wait, what? Yeah, I get it, you are crazy and like rabbits. That’s cool. But the dead one? Get rid of that shit. That is when you went from cute-crazy and obsessive to crazy-crazy and public health level dangerous.
