Never trust a facebook / myspace adevertisment

Filed under: Uncategorized — eNathan @ 7:29 pm

Most computer users these days are completly blind to advertisments. You can spot a google-ads box without even focusing on it. No need to, really. So, I was on facebook for the first time today and saw an advertisment to take an IQ test. Well, I took my last online one about 3 years ago and scored a 130.. so I figured, hey, why not freshup up a bit! Here’s the rest..

* Took the test - 4 pages.

* We’ll send the results to your email!

* Erm.. Whatever. /inputs email

* Your almost there! Enter your name, street address and phone number!

* OMG WTF, /puts in false info

* /Puts in false info again.. I have to re-try different false fields about 5 times to get them to “go through”

* Almost there.. enter your phone number! *Advertisments about the New Hottest Ringtones*

So, just to warn everyone… Never trust social networking based advertisments for any amount of legitimacy. Always, always use google if you want to find a legit site for something.

Obama votes to cover AT&T’s ass for participation in Bush’s warentless wiretaps

Filed under: Politics — eNathan @ 3:04 am

So everyone knows about AT&T’s participation in George Bush’s warentless wiretaps. The company handed over American’s personal phone calls + internet data to the U.S. government for monitoring. Oh, my gosh.. in the name of homeland security, of course!

So today, AT&T came over to my house to see what’s up with our ADSL after a recent move. Just as they say in the comcast comercials, “the further away you are from the hub or central office, the slower your connection.” Try 300kbsp, and on top of that our new home’s phone cord is so old that it doesn’t even allow DLS data to go through (90% packet loss). So we got to talking with the AT&T worker, he was a kewl guy.. most of them look like old-school computer hackers (if you’ve seen one I’m sure you will agree). He said to check out http://dslreports.com/ for interesting topics from various individuals who work for phone companies. So I checked it out, and happend to stumble across this article:

From: dslreports.com

Congress yesterday voted to approve the latest FISA bill, complete with immunity for AT&T, Verizon and Sprint for their participation in the Bush administration’s controversial warrantless wiretapping program….. A complete breakdown of who voted for the bill can be found here. As expected, Presidential hopeful Barack Obama voted for the bill in his quest to appeal to centrists.

Hilary voted against it, Mccain (not suprisingly) didn’t vote.

It’s dissapointing to think that we don’t have much of a choise anymore when voting. Since when did presidents / bills breaking the constitutional right to privacy become something that does not enrage every single American? If I had to guess.. I would say: when TV was invented.

My mission in writing this blog is to inform any  readers of Obama’s actions, as you probably won’t hear about it on the liberal media.

School Websites containing Javascript Injection

Filed under: General Computers, WTFness? — eNathan @ 7:55 am

I’m posting this after just completing awork submission on my school’s website. I had to write an essay about government control on smoking. So, out of curiosity, I took a long shot.. and wrapped my title in <b> tags to see if, by any chance, the website devs happen to be total noobs who understand nothing abuot security. Who would have guessed it.. The title was bold! I highy, highly doubt they wrote specific code to only allow “safe tags,” and I wasnt going to have a javascript alert() box show up on my teacher’s screen. But I’m 100% sure it would work. You could hijack the teacher’s page with any Javascript you want with a simple <script src=”">, allowing you to own their entire user account with stealing their document.cookie. This could have been avoided with a simple htmlentities() before displaying the data. So to all Website Developers who still have not learned mysql_reap_escape_string() and htmlentities(), you’re a retard. Go back to school. :P

I might notify the admins.. in some sort of email.. they have a user-to-user messaging system on th site. Maybe I’ll also write this in my email so they get the point: <script>alert(’This is why your retarded.’ + document.cookie);</script> :P

In other news.. I might leet up my PC soon, Duel Core 2 GB RAM, that’s all I can afford now.. I’ll be getting an octo-core soon enough. :D I’m not sure if I want go get Vista though… hmmm.

That’s right. Where the fuck have I been? This is teh first post in months. Well, long story short:

I died and was taken to the depths of hell. The Devil himself was there, Admin of the underworld. So I registered my nick, but it was already taken, so Satan banned me. Then God (admin of Earth) managed to register my nick back here in the world, I got my ass sent back to Earth. Then I flew around the world to help feed starving children and found a cure for AIDS. The end.

Anyway, as many of you know, MTA:VC 0.5 is dea. Yahoo bought out the All-Seeing-Eye service or some shit, and it got deleted or some shit. So the Superior Skill clan is now officially moving to Vice City Multiplayer.

In other news, I’ve got a business website goin for UBER WEB DESIGN. So if you need a website, and your definition of “buying a service” isn’t $5 - $10, check me out.. http://bluelinewebdesign.net/ The “Blue Line” is a Chicago Train line, thus the logo.

And that’s about it.. erm, let me find some shit to embed for everyone to see, might increase the quality of this post by 10%. This video is for anyone who wouners who fps_doug really pwned in episode 5:

It’s been a while

Filed under: site updates — eNathan @ 3:36 pm

z0my!!11one11eleven. The first update in liek, 4 weeks. Now I know all of my readers have been suffering from l33t bl0g withdraw because I havn’t been posting recently. Hope nobody had a nervious breakdown if you saw a “404″ or “account suspended” error when checking back here. Lolz. So here’s what happend which lead to about a two week period of downtime:

Apparently the proxy script in my “services” page was eating up uber amounts of server resources so my host suspended and enventually deleted my account. So the guy hosting was liek, ‘gtfo.’ But thanks to Koen from the XII clan, I’ve now got new hosting from Fireblood.nl (Now be a good boy and click that link, he needs support!).

So here’s a few things that’s been going on recently:
U.S. Navy pwns sattelight with Missle Defence System
China says “omg hax”
U.S. Embassy in Belgrade gets attacked by rioters
George Bush has been impeached
Osama Bin laden converts to Christianity
(Note: I cannot verify the validity of the last two). ;o

Moving along, I’d like to announce that I’ve been obsessing over two songs for the past 8 weeks. Chocholate Rain. The song is about Chocholate Rain, and he repeats Chocholate Rain after every line. Check it out ;p I think the meaning of the song has to do with money or the economy. Ironiclly I was listening to this song while I was researching economic problems in the U.S. It must be a sign! ;pIn other news, me and a friend in SS are working on a leet project — a modification of a modification, called MTA:M. Here’s a screenie :P

And that’s about it for now everyone. Now I’m going to go listen to beatles records in reverse in search of secrete messages ;p Maybe I’ll get an idea for my next blog. :o

Rape in the U.S. Military

Filed under: Politics, WTFness? — Tags: , , , , , , , , — eNathan @ 9:31 pm

This blog may be the most shocking and gruesome realization you’ve come by in a while, uncovering horrific and gruesome secretes kept from the public eye by top ranking Military Officials. After realizing these disgusting secrete that lies within what many esteem the most respected entity of our Nation - the Military - I’ve had this urge to stand in front of recruitment offices with a sign, reading: “Warning: If you’re a female, expect to get rapped while serving your country.” This is no joke. soldiers serving in the United States Military, especially female soldiers (though men included), have a new threat that they face. This threat does not come from the enemy, but, rather, from their fellow U.S. soldiers. Stories are slowly emerging from service men and women of widespread, rampant and unreluctant sexual assault and rape by their own people. It’s reaching a point now where we can consider this an epidemic — an epidemic that’s slowly coming into public awareness.[1] Studies show that roughly 2/3 of service women have received unwanted sexual attention while serving. No, this is not a mere “spank on the ass,” this includes events of rape and attempted rape. The term recently coined for this is MST, or Military Sexual Trauma.

From the Department of Defenses own statistical publications, “9 percent of women in the Marines, 8 percent of women in the Army, 6 percent of women in the Navy and 4 percent of women in the Air Force and Coast Guard were victims of rape or attempted rape in one year alone”[2]. Note how the unseeking eye can easily be mislead by these statistics. The minimal duration one can serve in the military is 4 years. That means, for instance, 40% of U.S. Female Marines will be raped or try to be rapped within a 4 year period of service. These figures only included the instances that have been reported; if it’s one thing people know and understand about rape victims is that they often tend to not report the horrific experience they’ve had to endure due to the shame they feel associated with it. In society, for example, only 16% of rapes end up getting officially reported[3].

In a regular society, if an individual gets raped, they can go to the police and report it. Action will be taken to catch the criminal, and individuals in your private and professional life need not know about the rape incident. However, the military is far different. Unfortinatly, many women don’t report their sexual abuse to their commanding officer for fear of wreaking their military careers. Other times, it was their commanding officer that raped them in the first place, which may leave the victim feeling incapable of fighting for their case to be taken seriously. Moreover, when a rape does indeed get reported, the case often goes unpressed, and the accused individual almost never gets prosecuted for his heinous sex crime. Rape is often blown off among military officers, in a “boys will be boys” sort of manner.

At this point, you may be wondering why isn’t this understood by the American People. Why do people even consider joining the U.S. Military? The government is good at keeping secretes well hidden, for the truth is far too shameful to be made publicized. It is unfortunate that Military Recruiters do not inform their female (and even male) recruits of the high risk of being raped or suffereing from MST while serving, therefore recruits usually end up joining with no knowledge of this epidemic whatsoever. Are you the least bit disturbed by the information presented here so far? Well, go grab yourself a bucket, you have yet to hear about how the military treats their rapists. What possibly makes this alarming rape epidemic even more notably disturbing is how the U.S. Military handles rape cases. According to the Department of Defenses own statistics, 74-85% of soldiers convicted of rape or sexual assault leave the military with honorable discharges.[2] An hour able discharge means that their their rape crime won’t even appear on their record, as if they’ve done nothing wrong — thus the word “honorable.” I wounder what, exactly, the military believes is honorable about the act of rape, as it’s a known fact that rape victens often carry emotional wounds for the rest of their life due to the incident. On a side note, I’d like to add that this isn’t the first time acts of sexual abuse by America’s men in uniform have been reported. The infamous Abu Ghraib incident, where accounts of “abuse, torture, rape and homicide of prisoners [POWs]”[3] were reported, had very similar characteristics. Such abuse was supposedly authorized by Secretary Donald Rusmfeld under the Bush Administration. Read below:

Ronald Rumsfeld - Secretary of Defence [4]

“The methods consisted of making prisoners stand for long periods, sleep deprivation … playing music at full volume, having to sit in uncomfortably … Rumsfeld authorized these specific techniques.” She said that this was contrary to the Geneva Convention and quoted the same “Prisoners of war who refuse to answer may not be threatened, insulted, or exposed to any unpleasant or disadvantageous treatment of any kind”. According to Karpinski, the handwritten signature was above his printed name and in the same handwriting in the margin was written: “Make sure this is accomplished”.[5] Put your mouse on the area below in order to see pictures.

Many uninformed Americans believe the Abu Graib incident — where soldiers raped Iraqi prisoners — was our military at it’s absolute lowest; an isolated event of the sorts. George Bush proudly proclaimed to the world that Abu Graib does not represent our Military. I don’t mean to compare the greater of two evils, but I suppose we need to decide which one is worse: Soilders raping Iraqis, or soilders raping fellow soilders. Though, there are no “leaked” images of women soldiers being pinned down by a man while he forces her to engage in intercourse with him as we have with the Abu Graib incident above.

What could be the cause of this rape epedemic?

Well, there’s several ideas one can speculate on (and note that this is pure speculation here). We first have to acknowledge that, tragically, rape is always going to occur; but the question is: Why is it more prominent in the military than in society? Here’s one interesting theory by a senior ranking officer of the U.S. Air Force, who quoted a general that spoke of using demoralization as a weapon of war, asserting that — in order to demoralize other populations [the enemy] — we must first demoralize our own population [our soldiers].

From a Senior Ranking U.S. Air Force Capitan (raped 3 times while serving)[6]

“It’s mainly the US Military, training them [soilders] to become like this, with the understanding as it was told to me when I was in squadron officer school there was a general who said: “We do not win a war by killing the other army, we win a war by demoralizing the civilian population. By doing that, when you harm someone (emotionally, physically, mentally, sexually), when you train your own to become this abriant bunch of people who will harm and rape their own, people become like sheep, or they become overly aggressive, in which you can then start to destabilize global populations. that’s the intent, and is based on a lot of my research.”

Again, here’s a quote from an article I found (citation provided below) in which a Navy Admiral speaks of a war being fought through demoralizing civilian populations:

Navy Admiral (Name: Unknown) [7]

While at a military training school a general officer responded to a question concerning a Navy Admiral who was simply retired without punishment after groping the breasts of a female Navy dental technician “[he] the admiral served with distinction for 26 years.” The same general went on to state that a war is waged not against another military but against it’s civilian population, it was learned in the Vietnam war that if you break the spirit of the civilian population the military will not fight.

I cannot confirm the legitimacy of these claims, but it seems (from people who are actually in the military) that these methods of war are present knowledge. To what extent they are being used in Iraq, I do not know, nor will I attempt to speculate. Other, more simple theories as to why this rape epidemic is occurring is because, as stated in the second quote above, soldiers tend to become broken down by war; we’d expect humans to break down and lash out occasionally if they’re getting shot at constantly, fearing death every time they drive their Hum-Vs down a road, and stressed out by the performance that’s expected of them to “get the job done,” as military leaders like to say.

Final thoughts on joining the U.S. Military:

The qualities and characteristics that the Military looks for in a solider are usually not found in a civilian, thus methods to “convert” ones mindset are carried out through a series of tough, emotionally challenging and somewhat disturbing tasks with the intent of conversion into a more “cold-hearted” individual that can act upon orders rather than thought and rationale. It’s vitally important that people — both men and women — realize what the military can do to an individual, and if one wants to subject themselves to the mental trauma of warfare, the strong possibilities of experiencing rape (Military Sexual Trauma), and the possibility of needing to kill a fellow human being during combat. The objective of this article was, however, to mainly to raise awareness of Military Sexual Trauma and the rape epidemic facing our Armed Forces. Until this rape epidemic begins to slow down, I would recommend you taking steps to encourage people to not join the military (unless they don’t mind running the risk of rape). Awareness of MST must be raised, immediately. Souces:

Vending-Machine Pot in LA? ;o

Filed under: WTFness? — eNathan @ 10:33 am

Didn’t we used to believe New York City was the most liberal, whacked-out city America? Well maybe LA is as of next Monday. Quote: "Two medical marijuana dispensaries in Los Angeles have installed pot vending machines. They’re accessible 24 hours a day and monitored by security guards."[1] Requirements include a prescription from a doctor for just about any illness where so called "pain" is present, followed by a scanning of your fingerprint; thereafter, you’re in Bud-Heaven, with up to 7 grams to 1 ounce of legal dope per week placed straight into your sticky addict hands from the federal government (That’s enough weed to supply yourself, and maybe sell some to your friends for a quick profit!). Hey, they even give you a choice between OG Kush and Granddaddy Purple. Hey, if I was a minority living in an inner city, I might just want to be moving out to the west coast right about now.

What might the future hold in the business of vending-machine drugs? :o This is my guesstimate: Button1=Viagra, Button2=Viki din, Button3=Weed. Hey, they might even have prostitution machines in the future, Button1=Asian, etc. :o Nobody really knows what the future of on-demand delivery of things of an ilicit nature may hold as this country grows increasingly liberal and careless. :P I’d personally like to see them improve coffee machines before they move on to drug machines, but that’s just my silly opinion, of course :P

U Vote ‘08 — The Issues!

Filed under: Politics — eNathan @ 9:14 am

Allright, so I know all of my readers don’t live in America, and many people could care less about politics, but you may find this interesting. The election season has rolled around again. The heat is on as 5+ Republicans and 3+ Demecrates fight to pwn Washington through 1337 votehax. On the Republican side, we have Mitt Romney, the morman occult leader, Giuliana, the gay baby-eater, Ron Paul, a secrete Nazi racist revolutionary, McCain, who totally licks George Bush’s ass, and lastly, Mike Huckabee.. who I have no dirt on at the moment (if you do, let me know!). On the Democratic side, we have Hilary Clinton (if you vote Hilary, she’ll iron your pants and bake brownies for you), Barack Obama (who’s secretly a Muslim), and John Edwards.. such a young noob :P Ah, only in a great country such as America can I legally get away with saying everything I just did ^_^ :D Moving on to more serious matters, shall we ask ourselves: what are the American People thinking? Check out the poll below.

New Hampshire - 2008 Presidential Polls
Clinton 112,251 39%
Obama 104,772 37%
Edwards 48,681 17%
Richardson 13,249 5%
Kucinich 3,919 1%
McCain 88,466 37%
Romney 75,343 32%
Huckabee 26,768 11%
Giuliani 20,395 9%
Paul 18,303 8%

So here’s the rundown on the issues: While the Democrats want to end the war in Iraq immediately, the Republican’s are, of course, refusing to end this war, with such cliche phrases put out in speeches such as: "Give the troops a change to win!", and famous story heard in ‘04 and again today — the story of the mother who lost her son in Iraq, and cries to some presidential candidate: "Oh, promise me one thing.. don’t let my son’s death be in vain!" Cry all you want lady, but your son’s death is what it is — anything along the lines of continuing this war in the name of honoring the Dead is a falsehood to me, with utter disregard for future troops who have a future life 6 feet under because of a false preemptive strike on a country that indeed posed no threat to us (no WMD found) — yet has become a threat to us now (the terrorists that is, not Iraq itself), due to the speeding of Islamic Extremist’s Ideologies. Don’t get me wrong here, I don’t think we should be irrational either — just as entering this war came with unforeseen consequences of an undetermined length, withdrawing from Iraq will also have unforeseen consequences of an undetermined nature. Moving on to other issues, we have the Economy. For those who don’t already know, George Bush has sunk this country is a multi-Trillion dollar budget deficit, and there is little means to pay it back. For those of you who don’t understand — you can’t spend money that you don’t have, simply. Of course, they can raise income taxes to 95%, but I’d prefer that they sort it out in Washington and leave the American people’s money where it belongs — in the pockets of the American People. Moving on once more, we have Universal Heathcare (btw, shouldn’t they call it nation-wide healthcare? I mean.. the entire universe? o,0 or world..). The issue of Universal Health care to me seems like tinder that’s tried to catch fire in the past, but failed (in the 1990s), but now has finally been set on fire by recent films such as Sicko, and the stunning realization that the United States is one of the few Industrialized countries that does not offer Health care to all citizens regardless of how much money or insurance one has (hell, even Great Britain offers Health care to tourists and visa-based residents). I, for one, do not have health care at the moment. The only thing the Democrats leave out of their heroic speeches is how costly this goal really is, with the inevitable possibility of increased taxation in order to pay for it (which may have undetermined consequences on our economy). Other issues of concern include border security, homeland security and terrorism. While often times people try to mix border security and homeland security — let’s be honest here in that there’s two completely different sides to border security: Mexican Immigration and Terrorism. While I don’t expect border-hoppers to come to this country with any hint of intent to blow up buildings and fire AK47s in the name of Allah, I do expect them to either take jobs (without paying taxes), and or join street gangs, while other (more honest ones) legally come here to become honest, English-speaking hard-working citizens. The other side is the possibility of terrorists exploiting our border problem by entering the U.S. through Mexico (carrying with them any form of weaponry they can transport and hide in the country), with the intent to carry out attacks on our soil. Both sides of this two-fold issue are of major concern, considering that our borders have been an open door leading right into our country for all of American History. I am all for legal-immigration; my grandparent’s (mother’s side) immigrated here from Sweden about a century ago — and I don’t think Hispanics should be treated any different. Immigration is what stimulates the American Economy if it’s done properly and, namely, legally. The issue is not over whether immigration should be allowed — it’s over how it should be regulated, to what extent thereof, and what to do with Illegals that are already on our side of the fence. (Clickity-Click). So here’s my take on the issues:

We must end the war in Iraq ASARP. What does ASARP stand for? As soon as rationally possible. Secondly, I want to see government cut spending drastically to get this country out of debt.. Thirdly, I want to see a double-fence put up between the U.S. and Mexico with technology-based border surveillance. Thirdly, I want to see more secure mechanisms for credit card approval and online purchasing to prevent Identity Theft. I’d like to see the government step up their game on border security from foreign countries (to prevent Opium, Cocaine, etc) from being imported from terrorists countries such as Afghanistan, while lightening up on innocent American’s that get caught with miniscule amounts of Marijuana on them (I could go into more detail as to why I believe this, but that’s for another blog). I’m still considering my view on gay marriage, but as of now, I don’t believe a constitutional amendment banning it should be enacted, yet I don’t fully support the ‘official re-defining’ of a Jewish / Christian concept of the "family unit" that’s been around for thousands of years. However, I believe in respect for minorities, thus Civil Liberties should be granted — but strictly at a state-level rather than a federal-level. I’d like to see health care benefits transfer from employer to employer without a 3-12 month waiting-period, I’d like to see the NCLB (No Child Left Behind) act completely abolished in order to take a new, revolutionary approach to eduction — learning, rather than "test passing." I’d like to see the Second Amendment upheld, as it’s been for the last 200+ years. I’d like to see us get off of foreign oil (from terrorist countries >_>), thus creating new jobs in the U.S. from the industrial transition from oil-based energy to clean, renewable energy (produced domestically). I’d like to see tax forms become simpler; and lastly, I’d like the next president be open and honest about what the hell is going on with the formation of the North American Union (for those of you who don’t know, check back soon for a blog about it).

For those reasons, I am torn between Hukabee, Hilary, Ron Paul, and Obama as to who my final vote will go to. Anyone who wants to leave their input, please feel free to do so ^^ :)
