‘A real free press for the first time in history’: Wikileaks editor speaks out in London | Journalism.co.uk Editors' Blog Julian Assange, editor of whistle-blowing website Wikileaks, has criticised mainstream media for not making proper use of “primary resources” and claimed that the site has created “a real free press (…) for the first time in history”. Speaking at the Centre for Investigative Journalism Summer School at City University London on Friday, Assange accused the media of failing to consult important evidence in its reporting of a 2007 US Air Force strike that killed two Reuters news service employees and several Iraqi civilians The attack became infamous after a video of the event was leaked through WikiLeaks, entitled Collateral Murder. The footage was recorded by one of two Apache helicopters involved in the attack. Showing an alleged copy of the US Military’s 2007 rules of engagement hosted on WikiLeaks, Assange said: “We had the raw ingredients you needed to decide right there. Why didn’t they use them?

Th orie du complot : La FED banque priv e ? Tentative de d cryptage - AgoraVox le m dia citoyen La banque fédérale américaine est-elle dirigée en sous-mains par les familles Rockfeller et Rothschild ? Légende urbaine ou vérité. Tentative de décryptage pour tirer le vrai du faux. Sur le web, on voit de tout. Du bon comme du mauvais, des informations vraies et délaissées par les journalistes mainstream et d’autres fausses mais répétées en boucle sur TF1. Pour vérifier cette information je vous propose pas à pas notre méthodologie à base de question-réponse afin de démonter cette légende grossière tant de fois lue et vue sur le net. Question 1 : Qui détient la FED ? Pour répondre à cette question, faisons comme tout le monde et allons sur wikipedia : La Réserve fédérale est détenue par douze Regional Federal Reserve Banks, et est donc à ce titre, une institution fédérale. Conclusion : La Réserve fédérale est détenue par douze Regional Federal Reserve Banks ou en français des banques fédérales régionales que l’on simplifiera par la suite en FED régionale Les 2.
Julian Assange and the Wikileaks agenda at George Brock Wikileaks founder Julian Assange came to the Centre for Investigative Journalism weekend school at City University last Friday to speak to a public audience. Assange is clearly making many more of these appearances in what might be called the Phase Two of the Wikileaks story. Julian Assange In Phase One, Assange barely gave any interviews at all and was secretive about himself and his organisation. Phase Two began when Wikileaks had put more than a million documents into the public domain which organisations and governments had never intended to release and when the US government arrested one of Wikileaks alleged leakers in the American military. Here’s a summary of what he said in opening. But from the start, Wikileaks saw itself in quite a different perspective from mainstream media, or from all other news media. He indirectly justified Wikileaks refusal to discuss its personnel, operations or security methods by saying that he has a “duty” to maintain “institutional integrity”.
Investig’Action NEFDS The Nonconventional Exploitation Factors Data System (NEFDS) is a database of surface reflection parameters built upon a modified form of the Beard-Maxwell model, the NEF Beard-Maxwell (NEF-BM) model. NEFDS contains a suite of programs which use the database to perform complex radiometric calculations while taking into consideration the properties of the target material, the material background, the measuring sensors, and the atmospheric environment. The database contains pre-measured surface reflection parameters for over 400 materials corresponding to a wide variety of objects ranging from camouflage to white paint. Of key importance to this project, additional surface reflection parameters of other materials can be determined and used with NEFDS because a measurement protocol, using existing radiometric instruments, has been specified. For more information on NEFDS contact National Image and Mapping Agency (NIMA)
Project Gutenberg Free eBook Library Wikileaks plans to release files about deadly U.S. airstrike on Wikileaks.org plans to release as soon as this week documents related to a U.S. airstrike that killed Afghan civilians last year and plans to release combat footage of the incident this summer, the founder of the whistleblower site said in an interview Monday. Julian Assange said the documents pertain to an attack near the Afghan village of Garani, which killed scores of civilians in May 2009 In April, Wikileaks released video footage of a U.S. Apache helicopter attack in Iraq that killed several civilians, including two employees of the Reuters news service. The release catapulted Wikileaks into global headlines and sparked debate over a site that aims to uncover government and corporate secrets. Assange said Wikileaks does not try to identify sources. "We don't verify sources," Assange said. Wikileaks has nonetheless secured three American lawyers, pro bono, to help Manning, 22, who is being held in Kuwait for allegedly leaking classified videos and documents to the whistleblower site.
Avons-nous droit à la vérité ? Conférence de Michel Collon (25 Avril 2013) Introduction Walk into a darkened room and turn on the lights. The gleam of furniture, the color and texture of carpets and curtains are instantly visible. A simple everyday act-but the science behind it is a complex and increasingly important part of materials design and manufacturing. Light from a light source hits a surface and part of it is scattered and transmitted to your eyes. The visual perception of an object- what we call its appearance arises from the interaction of incident light with the object's surface geometry or texture. Optical properties of the material (such as index of refraction or polarization) also play a very important role. For some years computer programs have produced images of scenes based on a simulation of scattering and reflection of light off one or more surfaces.
Swedish Pirate Bay to Host New Wikileaks Servers The Pirate Party will host several new WikiLeaks servers. This was agreed during Julian Assange’s visit to Stockholm last weekend, and the Pirate Party is happy to announce that everything has been finalized. The contribution of WikiLeaks is tremendously important to the entire world, says Rick Falkvinge, leader of the Pirate Party in Sweden. We desire to contribute to any effort that increases transparency and accountability of power in the world. Last week, the Pirate Party challenged the other Swedish parties to assist WikiLeaks in its democratic effort. The Pirate Party will provide bandwidth and hosting to WikiLeaks free of charge as part of its political mission, the press release stated. "This is one of our signatures. WikiLeaks have been under constant threat of being sabotaged by corrupt or abusive organisations trying to conceal the truth from the public. "We welcome the help provided by the Pirate Party.
