late summer that former CIA Director David Petraeus was the subject of

It's one
thing for a Democratic presidential candidate to dominate a Democratic
city like Philadelphia, but check out this head-spinning figure: In 59
voting divisions in the city, Mitt Romney received not one vote. Zero.
Zilch. \
TORONTO -Toronto Police are calling the vandalism of a west-end war memorial “a hate crime.” A woman walking Sunday night by the sculpture in Coronation Park — at
the foot of Strachan Ave. and Lakeshore Blvd. W. — called police after
noticing someone had taken a black marker and written “Canada will burn;
Praise Allah” on the memorial. “This is an identifiable group,” Det. Anthony Williams told reporters
at the scene Monday. “The veterans should be respected. That’s a total
disrespect for our sworn members and military members who have made the
ultimate sacrifice.” At the Remembrance Day ceremony at Old City Hall Sunday morning,
anti-war protesters were heard chanting during the two minutes of
silence. Williams said he couldn’t speculate whether the vandalism was protest-related. “I can’t speculate as to what their motivation is, but if they did
this on Nov. 10 or 11 … someone is looking for an opportunity to draw
attention to themselves,” he said.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Your emails are not nearly as private as you think.
The
downfall of CIA Director David Petraeus demonstrates how easy it is for
federal law enforcement agents to examine emails and computer records
if they believe a crime was committed. With subpoenas and warrants, the
FBI and other investigating agencies routinely gain access to electronic
inboxes and information about email accounts offered by Google, Yahoo
and other Internet providers.
"The government
can't just wander through your emails just because they'd like to know
what you're thinking or doing," said Stewart Baker, a former assistant
secretary at the Department of Homeland Security and now in private law
practice.
