Guidance counselors will scan brains for career choices

When I told my eighth grade guidance counselor I was going to be a professional hockey player, and I didn’t need a “backup plan,” she scoffed, looked at my mom, and announced she would be writing in my record, “business.”

As it turns out, the counselor was right about the hockey. But she was wrong about the business. (Although I write for the Business section of the Boston Globe, I cannot say I am much of a businessman.)

Now University of California scientists are saying that brain scans might prove more effective than aptitude tests at guessing what you will be good at…

“A person’s pattern of cognitive strengths and weaknesses is related to their brain structure, so there is a possibility that brain scans could provide unique information that would be helpful for vocational choice. Our current results form a basis to investigate this further.”

Boston: Nuke target and breakaway state capital

In a bizarre piece of uncredited fiction at the Telegraph, the U.S. becomes a fascist police state, and Boston is targeted by a “false flag” terrorist attack set-up by the federal government.

I guess I should be glad I got my speeding ticket yesterday (on the Jamaicaway, and what a whopper it was).

Next time, the police might be permitted to open fire on any suspicious vehicle…

Cryptogon’s covering Operation Blackjack, and notes the striking use of symbology in the online comic:

Remember the Kingstar (controlled demolition company) van near the exploded bus on the 7/7 London bomings? That’s what came to mind for me.

Also, the ‘fictitious’ attack occurs during the Summer solstice. What’s the name on the side of the van? New Dawn Presentations. And its logo? That’s right, the Sun.

One other thing: All the cool kids know that the Illuminati are fascinated with Ferris wheels near bodies of water. (Look, don’t blame me, I just work here.)

2012: "Internet interrupted"

The internet is doomed. But £96 billion can fix all that.

Nemertes Research reckons that 2012 could be a crunch year for the web, as the exaflood (my emphasis–mb) – an exponential explosion of online content resulting from new applications and video – causes slower responses and time outs, ultimately triggering an ‘innovation slowdown’.

Google the flu? The feds will see you

Prepare to be reading a hell of a lot about “infoveillance” and “infodemiology,” and for the major news outlets to continue making nice to Google.

That’s because the biggest “infodemiology” experiment to-date is about to take place, now that we are at the end of flu shot season.

Thanks to a new Google product, Google Flu Trends federal watchers will track Americans’ illnesses this winter, based upon the search engine terms they use.

Any flu-stricken sap searching Google for a cure will find himself under the microscope.

Where people bang out searches for “sniffles” or “flu,” an outbreak might be seen by the feds as taking hold in that community.

Several searches from a single street for “hacking” and “high fever” might trigger a quarantine.

Google is making the usual assurances that the data will be aggregated, anonymized, etc…

But I know of no regulatory body authorized to march into Google’s offices, to insure the company scrubbing anyone’s personally identifiable information.

I can see why the CDC would covet such data: it will give epidemiologists specifics (in addition to hospital admissions data) on the course of an outbreak.

Such a project will also show the feds which communities haven’t gotten the “everyone must get a fllu shot” memo.

See the New York Times report.

Running against the reptilians

The candidate: David Icke is standing for a parliamentary seat. Photo: Jack Cutting

(Update: Steve, in his excellent comments, below, says I mischaracterized David Icke’s spiritual views in this post. In short, Icke believes that he is a Son of God, not “the” Son, a state he shares with any other human being. — mb)

from Mark:

Red Ice this week made international news of David Icke’s anti-Big Brother campaign for British Parliament.

Icke, the former sportscaster, footballer and a Son of Godreincarnation of Jesus Christ (so he says), does not want the job, actually.

Rather, he seeks to call attention to Britain’s alarming cascade into a full-blown police state.

As the Palmgren brothers note at Red Ice, The Times of London, a Rupert Murdoch paper (that I’ve written for), mocked Icke’s announcement, noting the conspiracy researcher’s assertion that the Royal family and other world leaders are members of a reptilian master race.

The Times lists Icke alongside a beauty queen and the gag candidate, Mad Cow-Girl, as the candidates for the available seat.

CCTVs don't cut crime

They were supposed to fight crime–the ubiquitous cameras, which in London appear to be on every lamppost and crossing signal. But the billions the police have spent creating an all-seeing eye are proving worthless.

The police are building a database of CCTV images, however (see excerpt, below), which might have been their plan in the first place.

CCTV boom has failed to slash crime, say police | UK news | The Guardian
A new database of images which is expected to use technology developed by the sports advertising industry to track and identify offenders.

· Putting images of suspects in muggings, rape and robbery cases out on the internet from next month.

· Building a national CCTV database, incorporating pictures of convicted offenders as well as unidentified suspects. The plans for this have been drawn up, but are on hold while the technology required to carry out automated searches is refined.
