He's been punished way more than enough by now. I hope the judge gives him credit for time served and ends this.

It's not that simple:

Jackson ruled Friday that under a new California law that went into effect this year, Childs would receive fewer jail credits because he has prior felony convictions for robbery and burglary. Judge Delays Sentencing For SF City Tech Worker

No matter how old it is, a felony conviction tends to stick like glue. It surprises me a little that Childs is being cut any slack at all.

First. I applaud this guy for making such a neat device. Listening to the story break on NPR this morning was rather captivating. The reporter made the device sound relatively small - something able to fit easily within a single cave-bag after disassembly. After seeing the antenna array, though, I thought my eyes would pop out of my head. There is no *way* a group of cavers are going to carry this contraption around *as it is*. It is certainly a prototype and the device certainly has merit but, for the sake of the device and the caver(s) carrying it, it is hoped (at least by me) that it becomes a lot smaller and still able to transmit/receive with the surface counterpart.

You see, a device as large as the one in the pictures on the webpage would be unwieldy in many, if not most, caves in the US as most US caves are not walking passage. In its current form it would suffer a lot of abuse and probably become submerged in water, covered in cave mud, bumped, sat on, kinked, bent, folded, dropped, hoisted, scraped and buffeted from a normal days wear and tear. If the antenna wire itself became broken trouble would certainly ensue. So, I don't see the current form of cave rescue going away any time soon. (The cave-trip leader has a designated person that did NOT go on the cave trip to call by a certain time. If the trip leader has not called that person by that time a cave rescue is supposed to be carried out.)

Don't get me wrong - this is a very cave-worthy pursuit and many a caver would feel better about having this technology along for the trip - as long as the equipment could withstand the journey. Otherwise, it's just more dead weight.

Second. For the story itself - caving is not 'relatively safe.' It's more along the lines of relatively dangerous. Why? Anyone entering a cave with the attitude of 'relatively safe' is bound to get hurt. Very recently there have been people who went out for a day of caving and came back sans one member. See this story

I didn't know this guy but it seems arrogance killed him. Hate me for it if you have to but he went into a passage where 2 other people had to be rescued from years earlier. It's shameful that the cave owners/grotto overseeing the cave didn't have the foresight or fortitude to prevent future tragedies by closing that passage or making the cavers sign a form detailing that particular passage as off-limits. He died a slow death as hypothermia set in while he was upside down in a passage. He was supposed to be experienced. I heard about his story while he was still alive and I prayed that he could hold on long enough for a solution to extricate him could be found. I'm heartbroken and angry for his needless death.

Thirdly. One part of the radio broadcast that this story didn't relay is a story of the famous (or is it infamous) rescue of Emily Davis Mobley from Lechuguilla Cave very near Carlsbad, New Mexico. I think the broadcast mentioned that this (the Lechuguilla cave rescue) was the reason why he invented this device. (I remind you to see the above paragraph on caving being relatively safe. Still think so?)

You Tube of the rescue: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7I7bXcSWK8
Wikipedia Entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cave_rescue

Fourth. If you want to know more about caving visit Emily's website: http://www.speleobooks.com/

Finally: If you still don't believe me that caving is dangerous just you try cave diving. Near 100% fatality rate where 'accidents' have occurred. The rule of thumb is is something goes wrong while cave diving - you have two minutes to live.

Here's the official website for caving accidents in the Americas - http://www.caves.org/pub/aca/

FYI, There's NO FN WAY you'd get me to cave dive.

Excessive fructose consumption causes the production of reactive oxygen species in the liver, which causes sclerotic damage similar to that caused by alcohol consumption.

The liver damage/liver function anomalies detected by the monsanto safety study may be totally unrelated to the BT production, but may instead be a biproduct of boosting sugar production in the corn products (which would be financially advantageous, since more HFCS and Corn ethanol could be produced per acre, which would also boost support for government biofuel subsidies).

It is important to note that raw glucose is relatively safe to consume in absurd quantites; It is fructose, and sucrose (which breaks down into glucose and fructose upon ingestion, which makes it biologically interchangeable with HFCS) which result in the production of the reactive oxygen species. The problem is that glucose is substantially less sweet tasting than HFCS or Sucrose.

Humans were better able to tolerate a high corn biased diet when the corn was essentially starchy field corn, for much the same reasons that asian cultures could withstand large quantities of starchy rice; Starch gets metabolized into glucose, and the fructose levels in these 'bland' foods is very minimal.

Modern cultivation techniques have appealed to human cravings for sweet, and glucose is not very sweet; instead, we breed for, and excessively consume the biologically dangerous sucrose, and fructose at ever greater levels.

As the linked to article points out, excessive fructose consumption contributes mightily to obesity, and type II diabetes; as well as to "fatty liver disease", which causes massive liver damage.

These effects are being widely reported in humans right now, but disclosure and further study is being actively discouraged by the Corn grower's association, and the people behind the HFCS lobby groups, while they simultaneously produce purposefully specious propaganda. (It's specious, because it assumes Sucrose table sugar is "safe", when it has the exact same deleterious health effects. It's like saying that ingesting Lead acetate sweetener is no more dangerous than cooking in lead pots. Both are equally deadly.)

Is it just me, or didn't CNN kill news? That may sound backward, because I think they started with good intentions. However, the drive to create new content 24X7X365 has pushed all news outlets to report first, investigate later. example: http://cbs5.com/local/huckaby.mistaken.identity.2.984162.html Perhaps the newspapers could get back to being the mainstream source of information if they went back to producing LESS news, but actual news worthy content. Let Fox and MSNBC move all their content to Twitter - it will be closer to their users attention span anyway.

Your state is $41 billion in the hole. When people like you tell the rest of us to "man up" who choose not to live out there, it really pisses us off. We're sick of carrying your broke-ass state every five years because Ahh-nold and the rest of your retard politicians can't quit spending money they don't have and won't stop paying for people who aren't supposed to be in the country in the first place. Learn to balance your budget like the rest of us have to in reality land, and then you'll have a right to talking about "manning up" and paying taxes. It's easy to be loose with someone else's money, isn't it? You do realize that people and companies are fleeing California by the THOUSANDS (144,000 last year alone) right now because of high taxes and cost of living and shitty quality of life, don't you? I've lived out in California and while I still love to visit occasionally, I'd never EVER live there again, in part because of all of the arrogant folks who think they know what's best for everyone else and our wallets. I got smart and moved far, far away eight years ago, and am considering moving again because my home state of MD is unfortunately headed down the same deep blue, manure-filled path to permanent Federal welfare. Good luck, comrade.

Apparently there has been a shortage of nurses in the US for quite a while, and it is expected to get worse. It's probably not what you were looking for, but it might be worth considering if you place a high value on job security.
Random news report on this, dated January 7 2009: http://cbs5.com/health/nursing.shortage.patient.2.901996.html

"We recently had a hiring event where, for experienced nurses to interview -- just to interview -- we gave them $50 gas cards," said Tom Zinda, the director of recruitment at Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare in the Milwaukee-area city of Glendale. "We really try to get as creative as we can. It's a tough position to fill."

It's VERY important. In fact, one of the best things we might do to protect against abuse of power is to explicitly PROTECT the use of photographic/video/audio recording devices, because it's obvious that there isn't enough protection right now.

Take the recent case of Oscar Grant. He was fatally shot by a BART officer on New Year's. Witnesses said the man was restrained and essentially helpless when the officer shot him, but of course, the BART spokesman Jim Allison said the victim was not restrained when the gun discharged.

Funny, Mr. Allison, because independent footage taken by a witness with a cellphone showed a different story. And guess what? That footage almost wasn't available because an officer attempted to confiscate the camera (see the cbs5.com article: "[Vargas] also said she resisted an officer's attempt to confiscate her camera") -- she's probably lucky she wasn't shot as well.

And take the recent case of Marilyn Parver who was bullied by Jet Blue staff and threatened with actions from being banned from flying to "$10,000 in fines and 25 years in jail" -- because she videotaped an incident on a Jet Blue plane from her seat and refused to delete the footage. I don't know about you, but my reaction to this is to want to contact Jet Blue and ASKING them to put me on their no-fly list until they apologize to this woman and change their policy.

Overall, I think there needs to be law explicitly stating that in any space (public or private) in which there's no reasonable expectation of privacy, recording devices are not only allowed, the right to use them can't be infringed, and that no private entity or public agency can demand either surrender or destruction of the device or recordings (although it does seem reasonable to let the law compel delivery of unaltered copies).

One of their VPs did get popped for embezzling $65 million to feed his gambling habit.

Remember that the Wilsons lied about the entire thing that started this whole process in the first place.

The British Government's own investigation into the connection confirmed the US claims on Iraq seeking nuclear material. And multiple African nations have since also confirmed attempts from the Saddam regime to seek uranium from Africa. The 9/11 report (a bipartisan commission) casts significant doubt over Wilson's 'findings' and over his methodology, as well that he lied about how his trip was arranged, by denying his wife's involvement in sending him there. They arranged for him to go there, and ask around a few questions and buy drinks for diplomats, and come home and deliver a report that jived with their own politically motivated agenda.

We all know Slate isn't exactly leaning to the right, and even their investigative reporter Christopher Hitchens came to the same conclusion. That Wilson was wrong about Nigeria and about almost everything else he has stated publicly, and not only wrong, but deliberaly dishonest.

The Pentagon sought to build a "gay bomb" that would turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and thus reduce a potent military force into a twisting pile of sweating, spurting young men.

Anyone else seem concerned that the Pentagon is hitting up the Joker for ideas?

Now THAT had me laughing ... except for the price tag - $7.5 million. I guess they wanted to add a whole new meaning to the term "comrades-in-arms."

Pentagon Confirms It Sought To Build A 'Gay Bomb'

(CBS 5) BERKELEY A Berkeley watchdog organization that tracks military spending said it uncovered a strange U.S. military proposal to create a hormone bomb that could purportedly turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.

Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed to CBS 5 that military leaders had considered, and then subsquently rejected, building the so-called "Gay Bomb. Edward Hammond, of Berkeley's Sunshine Project, had used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain a copy of the proposal from the Air Force's Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio.

As part of a military effort to develop non-lethal weapons, the proposal suggested, "One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior."

The documents show the Air Force lab asked for $7.5 million to develop such a chemical weapon.

"The Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soldiers to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistably attractive to one another," Hammond said after reviewing the documents.

"The notion was that a chemical that would probably be pleasant in the human body in low quantities could be identified, and by virtue of either breathing or having their skin exposed to this chemical, the notion was that soliders would become gay," explained Hammond.

The Pentagon told CBS 5 that the proposal was made by the Air Force in 1994.

"The Department of Defense is committed to identifying, researching and developing non-lethal weapons that will support our men and women in uniform," said a DOD spokesperson, who indicated that the "gay bomb" idea was quickly dismissed.

However, Hammond said the government records he obtained suggest the military gave the plan much stronger consideration than it has acknowledged.

"The truth of the matter is it would have never come to my attention if it was dismissed at the time it was proposed," he said. "In fact, the Pentagon has used it repeatedly and subsequently in an effort to promote non-lethal weapons, and in fact they submitted it to the highest scientific review body in the country for them to consider."

Military officials insisted Friday to CBS 5 that they are not currently working on any such idea and that the past plan was abandoned.

Gay community leaders in California said Friday that they found the notion of a "gay bomb" both offensive and almost laughable at the same time.

"Throughout history we have had so many brave men and women who are gay and lesbian serving the military with distinction," said Geoff Kors of Equality California. "So, it's just offensive that they think by turning people gay that the other military would be incapable of doing their job. And its absurd because there's so much medical data that shows that sexual orientation is immutable and cannot be changed."

This is a good background of the story. It's actually weirder than you think. Sturgeon loaned him money to use for his business which apparently his wife, Nina, "used exclusively." Thereafter he drugged and seduced her and "then engaged in Bondage, Domination, Sadism and Masochism techniques and continued to redrug her repeatedly over time." He also threatened him: "Sean has threatened to have me beaten up by some of his associates in illegal activities and that he would hurt me, my mother or my children if he did not get what he wanted."

Not to mention this guy has admitted to killing 8 people. I don't know how much reasonable doubt one would need to get acquitted. I guess we will find out...

Why not? We post disparaging remarks about Gates, Ballmer, the RIAA, or whoever we feel like it. Sure, it's a way to express our opinions without having to leave our parents' basement, but what's to say that some of these posts don't have any merit? I looked at the site, and a lot of it is just racist, sexist, whatever-ist crap. If spoken in public, it's probably slander.

For one of the women (I'm not sure if she's one of the plaintiffs or someone else), they apparently posted the Facebook and Flickr pictures, Facebook profile, and other crap about a girl. They also follow girls around, taking pictures of them to post online. I don't know what was said about other women or people of other ethnicities, but I'm sick of reading those threads.

What about a law school that took those trolls seriously? And after the person owned up to the bad joke, AutoAdmit told the FBI the identity of the person. Apparently someone posted some comment 2 days after the Virginia Tech shooting, and someone at UC Hastings shut down the school for the day. I'm from SF, though I actually didn't hear about it at the time. The guy edited his comment soon after, yet someone copied and pasted it, and maybe called the school or something (Here's the original thread - I don't feel like linking to their site again: www.xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=616215&mc=80& forum_id=2#7959514 ). So, essentially, someone posted some threat online and a school was closed. I don't know why they were happy to assist the FBI regarding that case, yet they're hiding behind a shield of "free speech" in this one.

By confessing to something really horrible you aquire a curious kind of trust in people: if he says that he didn't kill Nina then who would doubt him now that he so flippantly admitted to the killing of 8 others?

This of course can be a strategy in itself, it's a card he's earnt by confessing and can play against Reiser, someone he clearly wants to see lose everything (re 2004 case for attempted seizure of Reiser's business, Namesys Inc.).

from: http://cbs5.com/topstories/local_story_256204954.h tml

Apparently Sturgeon was sleeping with Reiser's wife before they finalized the divorce. Also, Reiser accused Sturgeon of trying to steal money from him, and of threatening him. So there's totally motive here for Sturgeon to frame Reiser for the murder.

So MIT and the Boston area lost an internet connection but look at us here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Here are some URL from our TV news about this:

We lost two freeway connections this weekend in the San Francisco Bay Area because of a gasoline tanker truck overturned and caught fire. A homeless guy with a burnt mattress is nothing compared to the entire freeway overpass burning an collapsing. See the videos and slide show from the TV news station websites.

Just like when 1500 sheep jump off a cliff.

Here's the story. It was attached to his credit report. http://cbs5.com/investigates/local_story_291012007 .html

According to filings in Alameda County Superior Court, a notice of settlement was filed on Hans Reiser's behalf today to resolve a lawsuit filed against him by Sean Sturgeon on Dec. 30, 2004, seeking $131,552 in damages.

The terms of the settlement weren't disclosed.

Sturgeon claimed that Reiser and his company, Namesys, Inc., which he ran out of his home, failed to pay back a loan.

In a response to the lawsuit that was filed on Feb. 15, 2005, Reiser, acting as his own attorney, said "under no theory of liability is defendant Reiser liable personally for repayment."

Reiser alleged that Sturgeon "had been having a secret affair with defendant's wife, Nina Reiser, at the time of the loan." .

The cell phone ping came 2 days after he left them.

Do you have a reference for this?

According to this, the cell phone ping in question occurred on Nov 26. It sounds like there is confusion between when the ping happened and when the tower that received the ping was located.

Well, not to question the integrity or competence of the journalist who wrote the story, but I question the integrity and competence of the journalist who wrote the story.

This one mentions that he was sued for not paying child support. I'm guessing a significant portion of that $8k was child support, not actual alimony. I feel strongly that if you willfully create a life, you should be held responsible for it/them, and it shouldn't take a court order to make it happen.

Although I do think alimony is complete BS. But that's what prenups are for.

Reiser alleged that Sturgeon "had been having a secret affair with defendant's wife, Nina Reiser, at the time of the loan."

Reiser said Sturgeon "continues this illicit affair even during divorce proceedings currently in action" and that Sturgeon "even apparently is, in defiance of a court order, residing with defendant's wife and children."

Reiser also alleged, "It is well known and was well known to plaintiff (Sturgeon) that the majority of the allegedly loaned funds were spent exclusively by Nina Reiser."

Reiser said the fact that Sturgeon didn't name Nina Reiser as a defendant and named him as an individual "is clear evidence of his malicious intent to destroy defendant's marriage and leave the defendant to clean up the wreckage and pay the debts."

In a cross-complaint that Reiser filed against Sturgeon on Sept. 8, 2005, Reiser said Sturgeon acted as his financial agent from 1999 through 2002 and had access to and control over deposits, withdrawals and funds at the Patelco Credit Union.

Reiser said Sturgeon "worked with my wife Nina Reiser and eventually drugged her with ecstasy and seduced her."

Reiser alleged, "He then engaged in Bondage, Domination, Sadism and Masochism techniques and continued to redrug her repeatedly over time."

He said Sturgeon engaged in those techniques "in an effort to show that he was a better man than I and to convince my wife Nina to conspire with him to steal the Namesys Inc. company assets."

Reiser alleged that, "Sean has threatened to have me beaten up by some of his associates in illegal activities and that he would hurt me, my mother or my children if he did not get what he wanted."

Nina's boyfriend Sean Sturgeon allegedly practices BDSM, raped Nina, engages in "death yoga", made death threats against Hans, cheated with a married woman, and stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from Hans Reiser:

Hans Reiser, on the other hand, is a linux developer.

Guess which one the cops arrested and which one isn't even a suspect?

The man was an Iraq war vet who survived the shooting. From here: "Officials with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department released few details about the incident. Sheriff's investigators took the original tape, declining to release it to the public or describe what it shows."

Exactly. It seems that many are trying to redefine certain basic rights that have been well defined and respected in the past. It is worth noting that Reporters Sans Frontiers is not totally negative about the US. See the mix of articles below from the past six months or so:

• 27 September 2006 - United States: US military at Guantanamo try to implicate Al-Jazeera cameraman's lawyer
• 20 September 2006 - United States: Josh Wolf sent back to prison in case of "judicial persecution"
• 15 September 2006 - United States: Prosecutors try to send Josh Wolf back to prison
• 2 August 2006 - United States: Call for immediate release of imprisoned freelance journalist
• 31 July 2006 - United States: Journalist could be jailed for refusing to surrender video to judicial authorities
• 18 July 2006 - United States: Fourteen human rights organisations express support for a US draft law on free expression online (GOFA)
• 3 July 2006 - United States: Finance transaction espionage: The House of Representatives adopts a resolution supporting the Bush administration against the press
• 30 June 2006 - United States: Supreme Court rejection of military tribunals at Guantanamo hailed as a victory for the law
• 20 June 2006 - United-States: Internet 'neutrality' vital for free expression
• 15 June 2006 - United States: News blackout slated as Pentagon orders four journalists out of Guantanamo Bay

Likewise, RSF doesn't pull punches with respect to anyone. The message *I* take from the original posting was that many of us go around saying what great freedoms of speech and press we have in the US, and how we're so much better than everywhere else in the world. Whereas, in reality we're ranked 53rd in the world by a group that tends to be very negative towards *many* governments.

While those events predate the arrest, Hans' house was being searched as early as the 13th of September.

And the search for Nina's body, and searches on Hans' house began before that (story published on the 13th of September).

From TFA at http://cbs5.com/localwire/localfsnews/bcn/2006/09/ 19/n/HeadlineNews/POLICE-DISTRUST/resources_bcn_ht ml :

Oakland police said at Monday's hearing that they have "secret" information about Reiser but they can't reveal it, according to the defense lawyer.

What the...? Secret evidence? Have they taken him to Gitmo or something?

Reiser said Sturgeon "worked with my wife Nina Reiser and eventually drugged her with ecstasy and seduced her." Reiser alleged, "He then engaged in Bondage, Domination, Sadism and Masochism techniques and continued to redrug her repeatedly over time." He said Sturgeon engaged in those techniques "in an effort to show that he was a better man than I and to convince my wife Nina to conspire with him to steal the Namesys Inc. company assets." He said Sturgeon engaged in those techniques "in an effort to show that he was a better man than I and to convince my wife Nina to conspire with him to steal the Namesys Inc. company assets." Reiser alleged that, "Sean has threatened to have me beaten up by some of his associates in illegal activities and that he would hurt me, my mother or my children if he did not get what he wanted." He also accused Sturgeon of engaging in extortion by threatening to make calls to the Internal Revenue Service to report him and his mother. In addition, Reiser alleged that Sturgeon wrote into a contract that Reiser must participate in "Death Yoga," which he said has the purpose of "slowing down one's heart to the point of death."

I've been reading a bit, trying to get a handle on what's been happening and what may be next for the people involved in this (I trust the filesystem will be fine). Here are the most interesting parts of what I've read:

If ol' Hans was a rational and intelligent fellow he would have seen this as a sign not to do business with Mr. Sturgeon in the first place.

I can see why he would want to kill his wife. According to this article, she was having an extra-marital affair with his financial agent (finance guys are scum), while collaborating with Sturgeon to get him to pay up money she thought he had even though he drives an old rickety car. Not only that, she's a gynecologist and still expects him to pay child support even though he gets no visitation rights.

All this which was taking a financial and emotional toll from the work he loved, developing Reiser4.

I sympathize with him if what he claims is true.

Holy reiserfsck, how bizzare, how fscking bizarre.

There are some other strange aspects to all this, the wife may have been having an affair, but (at least in UK) often divorce lawyers encourage clients to do a 'kitchen-sink' approach to try and wrest custody of the children, so her affair and his domestic violence are both suspect until we get more info.

It will all come out if there is a body, or the wife turns up in Russia.

I didn't think to send in this article when I read it about a month ago. Basically, it talks about the disappearence of his wife.
