Anatomical plane. Anatomical planes in a human An anatomical plane is a structure used to transect the human body, in order to describe the location of structures or the direction of movements.
In human and animal anatomy, three basic planes are used: The sagittal plane, being a plane parallel to the sagittal suture, divides the body into sinister and dexter (left and right) portions.

These Are The Emails Snowden Sent to First Introduce His Epic NSA Leaks. Six months before the world knew the National Security Agency’s most prolific leaker of secrets as Edward Joseph Snowden, Laura Poitras knew him as Citizenfour.
For months, Poitras communicated with an unknown “senior government employee” under that pseudonym via encrypted emails, as he prepared her to receive an unprecedented leak of classified documents that he would ask her to expose to the world. Poitras’ remarkable new film, Citizenfour, premiered Friday at the New York Film Festival, and opens in theaters on October 24. What I hope won't happen in Dallas.

Watch for These Lesser-Known Depression Symptoms. A Bombshell Document at the Vatican Synod - The New Yorker. Since Jorge Maria Bergoglio became Pope Francis, a little more than a year and a half ago, the Argentine has radically changed the tone and the mood surrounding the Catholic Church.
But the question remained: How would he handle the difficult doctrinal issues of sexuality and family life that have divided the Catholic world? We are beginning to find out, in the work of the Vatican’s Synod on the Family, which opened in Rome this week and whose daily sessions continue until October 19th. On Monday, the synod produced a draft document with some preliminary conclusions, and it is something of a bombshell. The draft report, read aloud to the synod by the Hungarian cardinal Peter Erdo, urges greater openness and understanding toward divorced individuals, remarried couples, couples who live together without being married, families with children from different marriages, homosexual couples, and couples who practice different religions.
Revealed: ISPs Already Violating Net Neutrality To Block Encryption And Make Everyone Less Safe Online. One of the most frequent refrains from the big broadband players and their friends who are fighting against net neutrality rules is that there's no evidence that ISPs have been abusing a lack of net neutrality rules in the past, so why would they start now?
That does ignore multiple instances of violations in the past, but in combing through the comments submitted to the FCC concerning net neutrality, we came across one very interesting one that actually makes some rather stunning revelations about the ways in which ISPs are currently violating net neutrality/open internet principles in a way designed to block encryption and thus make everyone a lot less secure. The filing comes from VPN company Golden Frog and discusses "two recent examples that show that users are not receiving the open, neutral, and uninterrupted service to which the Commission says they are entitled.

The investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald has found a second leaker inside the US intelligence agencies, according to a new documentary about Edward Snowden that premiered in New York on Friday night.
Towards the end of filmmaker Laura Poitras’s portrait of Snowden – titled Citizenfour, the label he used when he first contacted her – Greenwald is seen telling Snowden about a second source. Snowden, at a meeting with Greenwald in Moscow, expresses surprise at the level of information apparently coming from this new source. Greenwald, fearing he will be overheard, writes the details on scraps of paper. The specific information relates to the number of the people on the US government’s watchlist of people under surveillance as a potential threat or as a suspect.

Larry Downing/Reuters Throughout 2012, as signs mounted that militants in Syria were growing stronger, the debate in the White House followed a pattern. In meeting after meeting, as officials from agencies outside the executive residence advocated arming pro-Western rebels or other forms of action, President Barack Obama’s closest White House aides bluntly delivered the president’s verdict: no. “It became clear from the people very close to the president that he had deep, deep reservations about intervening in Syria,” said Julianne Smith, who served as deputy national security advisor to Vice President Joe Biden.
“And the likelihood of altering those views was low, very low.” This summer, events overwhelmed the status quo. The Trials of White Boy Rick. It was the spring of 1987, and crack cocaine had turned whole swaths of Detroit into veritable combat zones.

In a city known for its fraught racial divide, Wershe had somehow joined the ranks of the drug kingpins on the predominantly black East Side before he was old enough to shave.

What ever happened to Google’s lease for a huge government airfield in Mountain View? By Dan Raile On October 10, 2014 In our age of lightspeed speculation over the intentions of a handful of powerful Silicon Valley executives, you’d think there would be more buzz about the deal in the works between Google and NASA to bestow upon Google the rights to a massive government airport adjacent to NASA’s Ames Research Center and a stone’s throw from the Googleplex. In February it was announced that the federal General Services Administration had selected a bid by Google subsidiary Planetary Ventures to lease the Moffett Airfield and its hangars. After a brief effervescence of Internet reportage the story has gone silent. And now those lease negotiations, originally slated to be finalized July 1, seem to be in limbo. Theverge. When Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella dropped the company’s "devices and services" focus earlier this year, many questioned whether the software maker would continue to create Surface tablets.
A brief mention of Surface Pro 3 by Nadella in his email to all employees appeared to back the tablet, but it wasn’t totally clear Microsoft was committed. Nadella wants to enforce that today.
