In 2008, the Department of Defense bough 20 Italian-made twin propeller military transport aircraft, called G222s, to give to the Afghan military. Turns out, the things aren't made for the Afghan climate, nor did we buy all the parts necessary for the things to actually FLY. Just another example of the US government burning our taxpayer money. The Resident (aka Lori Harfenist) discusses.

VIDEO: Timelapse : Novossibirsk
Porte d’entrée de la Sibérie, Novossibirsk a été fondée en 1893 sur le pont qui traverse le fleuve de l’Ob, aux abords des voies ferroviaires.
Au-delà de la gare du transsibérien, monument incontournable de la ville, notons l’immensité du Théâtre national, plus grand théâtre de Russie et aussi baptisé le Colisée Sibérien. Celui-ci se trouve sur l’artère principale de la ville, le Krasny Prospekt, que l’on aperçoit dès les premières images. A son début, observez la Chapelle orthodoxe de Saint-Nicolas (dôme doré) qui est l’un des symboles de la ville, et un peu plus loin la Cathédrale Saint-Alexandre-Nevsky, en brique rouge et de style néo-byzantin...

VIDEO: ‘Scary you could be jailed for running computer service’ – CryptoSeal co-founder
VPN service CryptoSeal followed Lavabit in pulling the plug, fearing running afoul of US authorities. Ryan Lackey, co-founder of the computer firm, told RT about the current climate where people can be put behind bars just for running their businesses.
In August, the highly-encrypted email service Lavabit reportedly used by NSA leaker Edward Snowden went offline after it was ordered by a court to turn over its Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) private key – a cryptographic protocol designed to facilitate communication security over the internet – to the FBI.
The company objected, saying the key would grant the government access to communications by all 400,000 of its customers. Lavabit offered instead to add code to his servers which would provide the FBI the necessary information only for the target of the order. According to unsealed documents from the Federal District Court in Alexandria, Virginia, released earlier this month, the court rejected the offer, demanding that Lavabit hand over the SSL key or face a $5,000-per-day fine.
Fearing the legal precedent set by the Lavabit case, CryptoSeal followed suit earlier this week, saying it would be impossible to comply with a government order without turning over the crypto keys to its entire system.
RT: Tell us how your relationship with the National Security Agency unfolded?
Ryan Lackey: Well, we don’t really have a relationship with them. We just monitor the news and ran a service under what we believed was the law, where they would require a search warrant to extract [cryptographic] keys. It turns out that under the Lavabit case, they can use a pen register order or a D order, which is a much lower standard, to compel a provider to turn over keys. We can’t really operate in that environment, so we pre-emptively shut the service down; it was too risky to operate.
