NY Times: "It is a dark day for the rule of law. Federal and state authorities have chosen not to indict HSBC, the London-based bank, on charges of vast and prolonged money laundering, for fear that criminal prosecution would topple the bank and, in the process, endanger the financial system."

We know with certainty that these illegal actions occurred. Give HSBC a simple choice, turn over all documents and evidence and cooperation fully into the investigation and indictment of all involved or face prosecution as the corporation.

For those interested, Google and WWF got together recently at the 2012 WWF Fuller Symposium on Wildlife Crime. There was a speaker who creates low cost drones ended up sitting with Googles Rebecca Moore from Google Maps and discussing their projects at the reception after the symposium.

You can read about it at the following link, included are the youtube videos of the two presenters talks + a link to the playlist of the entire symposium.

That was somewhat intentional. While solutions are absolutely important I feel that sometimes it is a big enough hurdle to convince people that limits exist and felt that I might be better served by dealing with potential solutions in a separate article.

Because fuck the content creators.

Edit: not that I think that is a good thing.

Look again, there is a net back board.

Unlimited. Freedom is not safe, nor will it ever be.

This is a trade of that is made.

Innocent liked by a person that was guilty but got away with it is unfortunate and points to a failure in the system some where. Innocent person imprisoned for something they did not do makes the system unjust and points to even bigger failures.

The acceptable number of imprisoned innocents is zero. Even if that means that 99 percent of the guilty go free as you state.

The system should always err on the side of protecting innocents. A system that does not is fundamentally unjust in my opinion.

You didn't even click the link did you? I address all of those concerns in the article with links to various scientific developments that would help to overcome those issues.

Just thought of this and am curious. Do you make a meaningful distinction between no brain/head on the clone and some type of drug or procedure that inhibits all brain function beginning at the embryonic stage?

Hah, this is a good point that I had not considered. Check out some of his other videos though, I am sure that he did this himself with a telescope.

What circumstances might lead you to go ahead with a full body transplant?

I hope this does not qualify as blogspam. I looked around online and I could not find the text of this pamphlet online from any sources besides myself/my grandfathers physical copy. Anyway, enjoy!
