The Shoe...*

In the days after the December 2015 massacre in San Bernardino, California the iPhone left behind by one of the shooters was secretly flown to the FBI’s laboratory in Quantico, Virginia.

The FBI had been unable to review the phone’s contents due to a security feature  

Apple fought a court order "to help authorities bypass the security feature". Apple maintained the U.S. government was asking it to create a "backdoor" into its devices.

One company officials demonstrated their technology and the FBI greenlighted applying it to the phone.  "the FBI has now successfully retrieved the data stored on" the phone, according to the Justice Department. The court case is withdrawn.  Apple did not play a part in finding the solution.

The shoe is now on the other foot.   Just a thought.

Tried...

A man shouted death threats from his car window at several groups of French soldiers out for a morning jog in the French Alps, then tried to run two of them over, a military spokesman said.

Col. Benoit Brulot, a French Army spokesman, said the driver circled the military barracks in Varces-Allieres-et-Risset shouting at groups of soldiers. He returned later and tried to hit the two soldiers with his car before making a quick getaway.

Security sources told French news agency AFP that the suspect shouted threats at the soldiers in both French and Arabic. AFP said the man was driving a car with false license plates when he drove at the soldiers.

What if the State rejected your Naturalization process?

Expression...*

According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, freedom of expression is the right of every individual to hold opinions  to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media regardless of frontiers, without interference.

The right to freedom of expression is recognized as a human right under article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and recognized in the (ICCPR).

It  additionally states that the exercise of these rights carries "special duties and responsibilities" and may "therefore be subject to certain restrictions" when necessary "for respect of the rights or reputation of others" or "for the protection of national security, of public order,  public health or morals".

Express yourself. Just a thought.

It is about the culture of Life and Love.

Good Friday...

Shelter...

It’s a common reaction.
“People are concerned about an institutional structure [Homeless shelter] coming into a residential neighborhood. They’re concerned about what the impact is going to be on the resources that may already be scarce. 

Quality of life and real estate value are the two issues in mind.
Resolve this complexity and all would welcome a shelter.
This is why.  Just a thought.

Fergusson...

This picture went viral during the Chaos of Fergusson riot. This guy had a sign saying free hugs, and this police man accepted.  It is a desire of two human being, regardless of their background, to be human.

Unfair....

President Trump reportedly wants to take on Amazon and the internet retail behemoth's tax treatment.

The president has long argued that Amazon gets unfair tax treatment relative to brick-and-mortar retailers.

The company's stock, in turn, lost more than $50 billion in shareholder value at one point.

It is definitely unfair and badly  impct the mommand pop businesses. Something need to be done.
