Yesterday was the first meeting of the Branding Advisory Committee Meeting. Members of this Committee represent a diverse group of people who will serve as a source of ideas and a sounding board for concepts as the branding process moves forward. Members of the Committee were excited to have an impact on the future of the City's brand for years to come.
At the meeting, committee members took part in an exercise to define the community. Members of the public will participate in this same activity at upcoming community meetings. For more information on upcoming meetings click here. To provide feedback at the Defining Norwalk website click here.

Michael Kives, a longtime leader at the Creative Artists Agency (CAA), former aide to President Bill Clinton, and close advisor to investor Warren Buffett, is launching his new venture, an advisory firm called K5 Global where he will serve as CEO.
Kives is a longtime colleague of Bill and Hillary Clinton, working as interim spokesperson for the Clinton White House and serving alongside Huma Abedin in Hillary Clinton's Washington office. During his tenure at CAA, Kives' clients included Warren Buffett, Bruce Willis, Katy Perry Jesse Eisenberg, Eric Stonestreet, and Jessica Alba.


This is the Scout Motto and that is exactly how we feel. As good Norwegians and in the best scouting way, we are here to invite you to visit our Lavvostand at ONS 2014.
Visit us at ONS 2014 from the 25th to the 28th of August in Stavanger and talk to one of our Consultants for a no obligation introduction to our services.
We have food, drinks and a nice team just waiting for you!


This disc marked a mini water mark as a bar band in the Philly area. Tapping into funk, blues and a little bit of country, the songs represented the culmination of about 18 months of dozens of gigs from South Street in Philly to biker bars outside Delaware. The musician lineup changed slightly from "Kerouac Shack" to include Blair Saunders on bass, and Jorge Castenda on guitar. Lee Sled and Toby Houser had to leave to go to college. Most of the songs on here are great, with fantastic vocals from Jennifer Lynn.


This Slow Cooker Taco Soup is an easy meal made in your crock pot using pantry staples! Super nutritious also, to get you through cold and flu season!
Omg, you guys. Have you ever had pneumonia? With bronchitis? Followed by the flu? And then a lovely cold to top it off?
Ya. It's loads of fun. NOT.
I was pretty much useless the entire month of July because of all those things ^^^. I don't think I've ever been that sick.
2. Safeway's grocery delivery service.
3. Safeway's entire medicine aisle.
5. And this Slow Cooker Taco Soup.
So, I made a survival list. HA. All the ingredients I needed for the soups, and also medicine that I always have on hand, but needed to be replenished, including Safeway's Signature Care Honey Lemon Cough Drops, Nasal Decongestant Tablets, and Cold/Flu Daytime Relief Softgels. They're less expensive than name brands, but just as effective!
I ordered everything online and they delivered to my front door the same day. And it's free! Plus, the first time you do it, you get a $20 discount. There weren't any errors in my order, no damaged products, and the delivery person was super friendly. I've already used the service again.
Now, normally when I'm sick, I go right for the chicken soup. But I literally had zero energy to be slicing, dicing, and roasting. This taco soup was a lifesaver. I had Haley brown the onions and beef, and then I just dumped everything in the crock pot. Easy and nutritious, loaded with corn, beans, and broth. Plus, the spice helped clear up my sinuses!
Obviously after eight days of a fever, I needed a chest x-ray and actual antibiotics, but these are some of the foods and medicine that get me through "normal" cold and flu season.
I think I am finally healthy. And if not, Safeway and Taco Soup to the rescue again.
Signature Care and O Organics products are available in my area exclusively at Safeway. Don't live near a Safeway? No worries. You can also find these food products at any of the Albertsons Companies grocery stores, including Albertsons, ACME Markets, Jewel-Osco, Vons, Pavilions, Randalls, Tom Thumb, Shaws, Star Market, United Express, United Supermarkets and Carrs/Safeway.
In a large nonstick skillet, warm oil over medium-high heat. Cook the beef and onions until the onions are translucent and the beef is browned with no pink remaining, about 3 minutes. Drain off fat and return to heat. Season with the salt, pepper, and paprika.
Transfer meat to a 6-quart slow cooker. Add in the corn, black beans, taco seasoning, enchilada sauce, salsa, and chicken broth. Stir to combine.
Ladle into bowls and top with a dollop of sour cream, shredded cheese, a few avocado cubes, and broken up tortilla chips.
This has a kick to it! If you want less heat, replace the enchilada sauce with regular tomato sauce.

Renault Wind — компактний родстер французького автовиробника Renault.

Опис

Вперше був показаний в 2004 році як концепт-кар на Паризькому автосалоні.

2 лютого 2010 року Renault оголосили про те, що Wind надійде в продаж. Готовий продукт був представлений на Женевському автосалоні 2 березня того ж року. Він, на відміну від концепту, виявився двомісним.

Незважаючи на те, що Велика Британія є одним з основних покупців марки Renault, Wind, як і Renault Laguna, Renault Espace, Renault Kangoo і Renault Modus, там не продається; компанія зробила це для того, щоб скоротити свої витрати і допомогти отримати прибуток. Ця зміна набула чинності в лютому 2012 року. Laguna, Espace, Kangoo, Modus і Wind як і раніше доступні в Європі.

Представлений автомобіль у двох комплектаціях: Dynamique та Dynamique S. Окремо пропонується обмежена серія Collection.

До переліку стандартного оснащення моделі Dynamique увійшли: бортовий комп'ютер, сидіння з додатковою бічною підтримкою та інтегрованими підголівниками, 16-дюймові литі диски коліс, кондиціонер, круїз-контроль, передні протитуманні фари, CD стереосистема з додатковим входом, електронний контроль стабільності, функція дистанційного закривання дверей та комплект інструментів для накачування шин.

Модель Dynamique S додасть: 17-дюймові литі диски коліс, автоматичні фари і склоочисники, клімат-контроль та стереосистему з Bluetooth сполученням. За безпеку у моделі Dynamique відповідають: антиблокувальна гальмівна система з функцією розподілу гальмівних зусиль, передні/бічні подушки водія і пасажира та система допомоги при екстреному гальмуванні.

Обмежена серія Collection, представлена у кількості 200 екземплярів, отримала: шкіряну обшивку, підігрів сидінь, чорний відкидний дах, червоні та хромовані вставки приладової панелі, шкіряне спортивне рульове колесо і важіль перемикання передач, алюмінієві педалі, електропривод бічних дзеркал, червоні дверні ручки та обшивку стелі з хромовим ефектом.

Fleur de Lolly: A pot of Republic Steel Chili will bring back memories
Laura Tolbert More Content Now
Republic Steel Corporation (originally named Alabama Steel and Wire Company) came to Gadsden in the early 1900s. A massive blast furnace was erected along with four 50-ton open-hearth furnaces with an annual rated capacity of 120,000 tons of ingots. In 1904, the first steel was produced at the plant.
For nearly 100 years, Republic Steel was one of Etowah County's largest employers. Everyone it seemed had a family member or friend who worked at "the plant." The plant had several owners before closing its gates in 2000, but the memories of the employees and their families will last forever.
My father was a pipefitter with Republic Steel Corporation from Dec. 15, 1955, until Dec. 15, 1985. He made lifelong friends during his 30-year employment with the plant, and his job there allowed him to provide for his family and enabled us to enjoy a one-week vacation each year in Panama City Beach, Florida and an occasional road trip to Cherokee, North Carolina.
One of the highlights of my little girl life was going with my mama to pick up my daddy on the occasional Friday. She would allow me to sit on the bench outside the plant and wait on the 3 p.m. whistle to blow (I learned quickly to cover my ears) and watch all the workers rushing to clock out to go home.
Working with the same men day in and day out, naturally a camaraderie is built. And, as is the case many times, that bond will include food. The steel plant was known to be one of the hottest places to work during the summer and one of the coldest environments in the wintertime. No one can agree on the details of how this recipe came to be other than chili was the subject one day, and various methods and likes and dislikes were open for debate and discussion.
The pipe shop foreman told the men to bring in their favorite ingredients, and he'd see what he could do with them. The result? What our family, and I'm sure several others, will always refer to as Republic Steel Chili. No hard-to-find ingredients here, just a working man's pot of chili. For anyone reading this who might have had a connection with Republic Steel in Gadsden, or ANY steel mill across the county, I hope this column brings a smile to your face and recalls good memories.
REPUBLIC STEEL STYLE CHILI (Circa 1980)
• 2 to 2 1/2 lbs. lean ground beef
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 large white onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 quart whole tomatoes
• 1 (28 oz.) can tomato sauce
• 2 teaspoons Tabasco hot sauce
• 1 or 2 package chili seasoning mix
• 1 cup water mixed with 1 1/2 teaspoons flour for thickening
In a large Dutch oven, brown ground beef and drain. While meat is browning, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and. stirring occasionally, let them cook 5 to 7 minutes until softened. Remove from heat and add to the ground beef.
And sugar, tomatoes, tomato sauce, Tabasco and chili seasoning mix(es). Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, breaking up whole tomatoes with a wooden spoon. Cover and reduce heat so that chili simmers for 1 to 2 hours. Stir occasionally to keep from sticking.
Mix water and flour to form a slurry and add to the chili to thicken. Let simmer another 30 minutes or so. Taste and add salt if needed. Serve hot with lots of saltine crackers.

Social media is ruining lives, as young people put their own at risk for a taste of viral fame
Rupert Myers 29 June 2017 • 2:47pm
a man using YouTube Credit: John Stillwell
Social media "gives a voice to people who don't deserve one" tweeted Devon MP Gary Streeter last night. Of course he's wrong, but – ironically – social media does encourage some stupid behavior.
Thanks to the unparalleled democratisation of communication, we enjoy an age in which anyone can publish. Anyone can share something of themselves and develop an audience.
This is why i hate social media. It gives a voice to people who dont deserve one https://t.co/7DmVwa92ND
— Gary Streeter MP (@garystreeterSWD) June 28, 2017
Many sensibly choose not to, others seethe with resentment that they go largely ignored. A special category of imbecile goes to any length to be noticed. Within the imbecile sector – if it is ever catalogued – you will find Monalisa Perez and her late boyfriend Pedro Ruiz. In front of a crowd of spectators including their three-year old child, Monalisa shot Pedro Ruiz to death. You can probably guess why: it was part of an unfortunate attempt to increase the size of their following on social media.
Me and Pedro are probably going to shoot one of the most dangerous videos ever😳😳 HIS idea not MINE🙈

Pedro didn't want to be shot dead by a bullet to the chest, but in an act of unfathomable stupidity he took the risk of that result. He took a round for the prospect of the sweet clicks that come from publishing a viral video. In this case, the video was to be of Monalisa firing a gun at him while he held up a book. Pedro and Monalisa believed the book would stop their child from witnessing one of their parents killing the other one, but that's not how it worked out. They don't appear to have tested their theory on something less important than Pedro's body before the fatal incident. For everyone involved it is obviously a disaster.
Idiots will always be idiotic, but were it not for the compulsion to become more popular on social media, Pedro probably wouldn't have been killed. Social media has done something awful to some of us: it has stirred exhibitionism, legitimising it, and in so doing it has encouraged some to behave badly.
The corrupting effect of the internet on our sense of propriety, shame, and self-preservation is just one of the downsides of our technologically enabled world. We have instant access to vast levels of human knowledge, we have the tools to communicate and express ourselves around the world, and yet our lives have not been transformed by the promise that such developments might suggest. The average user has a couple of hundred twitter followers. Your Instagram feed probably has not brought you worldwide acclaim. The gap between our opportunities and our realities has revealed many of us to be frustratingly uninteresting. Most have the self-confidence to accept this, others gnash and wail into the void, and some reduce themselves to acts of remarkable idiocy to gain our attention.
Social media is ruining lives, crushing self-esteem, raising blood pressure, and spreading misinformation. What was once the preserve of the few is now the dubious opportunity of the many. There was a time when for our entertainment the Jackass team subjected themselves to unbelievable risks, and it was seriously funny.
Their TV exploits can now be copied and – crucially – shared by anyone. Most people would dream of attempting (for example) to jump between the roofs of buildings, but give people the opportunity to make money and garner some minor celebrity from their poor life choices and you'll see the development of a market for categories of entertainment like "parkour fails."
The internet is littered with the most excruciating injuries and mishaps filmed for your entertainment. Reckless endangerment of life is mere seconds away, because people can, and because people watch it, and because of awful the thrill that we get from being noticed.
Twitter is too frequently a race to the bottom, a competition in which the fatuous prosper, where reason and nuance are trampled to death by pithy contempt. YouTube has monetised stupidity, and Facebook has gamified over-sharing.

Thanks for answering Where do I get hold of it?
Please don't sue me Nintendo/Mr Kipling!
I've had a few conversations on Hamachi where I get nothing until the other person leaves, where I get all the messages they've sent at once. So if they're arranging something I can't say anything until it's too late, which is annoying because I'd hate for people to think I'm ignoring them or something . If this common with other people or is there a workaround or fix?
That can be a simple update bug in Hamachi, I've experienced something similar. I usually move the window off-screen and back to force it to redraw and all messages will be displayed. Don't know if this is the same thing you're experiencing, though.
Network is full guys.. loggout when you arent playing please!
1) he able to connect our channel at ahamachi nad his status is "green"
5) when we start game it freezes on window Preparing to the battle. looking for opponent.
Where do I get this purported map pack I see mentioned?

» HHS Reduces Maximum Penalty Amounts for Certain HIPAA Violations
HHS Reduces Maximum Penalty Amounts for Certain HIPAA Violations
On Behalf of The Wagner Law Group | May 20, 2019 |
The Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS") has lowered the maximum civil monetary penalty amounts for most violations of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA") Privacy and Security Rules.
Background. In 2009, Congress enacted the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health ("HITECH") Act that, among other things, enhanced HIPAA enforcement by increasing the minimum and maximum penalties for HIPAA violations. Regulations implementing HITECH established four tiers of penalties, which take into account whether the organization in question was aware of the violation and had previously taken steps to abide by HIPAA's rules. The tiers escalate in severity and are as follows:
Tier 1 – No knowledge. The person did not know that the person violated the provision;
Tier 2 – Reasonable Cause. The violation was due to reasonable cause, and not willful neglect;
Tier 3 – Willful Neglect – Corrected. The violation was due to willful neglect and timely corrected (i.e., within 30 days); and
Tier 4 – Willful Neglect – Not Corrected. The violation was due to willful neglect and not timely corrected.
In 2013, HHS established a rule that applied the same $1.5 million maximum cumulative annual limit across all four tiers of penalties:
Revised Maximum Penalty Amounts. Under HHS's new penalty system, the annual maximum civil penalty amounts for the first three tiers will be significantly lower. Specifically, HHS will apply the following limits for the four tiers of penalties.
Level of Culpability
Tier 1 – No knowledge $1.5 million $25,000
Tier 2 – Reasonable Cause $1.5 million $100,000
Tier 3 – Willful Neglect – Corrected $1.5 million $250,000
Tier 4 – Willful Neglect – Not Corrected $1.5 million $1.5 million
While HHS will issue new regulations to incorporate the lower penalty amounts, it will immediately begin to apply the new maximum penalty amounts as a matter of its enforcement discretion. The penalties for other HIPAA violations remain unchanged.
The HHS notice announcing its decision to lower the maximum annual penalties for HIPAA violations can be found by clicking here.

Maureen's Memories
The Irish in America

John Foley (ATMR Family Collection)
John Foley and my grandpa John Regan were good friends. They spent their early childhood together in Clontarf, Minnesota. John Foley moved to Minneapolis with his family in the mid 1920s.
It was only natural that the two boys were friends. Their paternal grandfathers (Patrick Foley and John Regan) were friends in their native Kilmichael, County Cork, and they came to America together, settling in Fisherville, New Hampshire before venturing to Clontarf, Minnesota in the late 1870s.
I don't know if "the Johns'" fathers (Tim Foley and Neil Regan) were friends when they were young. Clontarf was (and is) a small place, but from what I have heard, the two had little in common. If I consider as evidence my grandma's collection of studio portraits of many of the young men of Clontarf, Tim and Neil were not close. – there are no photos of the two of them together. However, the evidence does show that John's uncle John Foley and Neil were friends (see below and click here to read about it).
Cornelius Regan and John Foley seated, around 1900 (ATMR Family Collection)
As I mentioned earlier, Clontarf's a very small place so even when folks moved to Minneapolis, as so many did in the 1920s and 1930s, families remained close, supporting one another as they made their ways in the big city. The community was strong whether it was in the rural west or the largest city in the state. It was sometimes difficult to see where family ended and neighbors and friends picked up. It could all get very complicated…
One day in late 1930s Minneapolis, my grandma's Aunt Bid Foley (John Foley's mom) invited her over for cards. Have I mentioned yet that John Foley and my grandma, Agnes McMahon were first cousins? How about that they were double first cousins?
John Regan was staying with his old friend John Foley at the time of the invitation. Agnes and John Regan had crossed paths over the years, but it wasn't until Uncle Tim asked Agnes to take his place in a cribbage game with John Regan, that sparks flew.
I don't know who won that game, but I bet it was fiercely contested. They fell in love over a cribbage board and were married in 1941. They were a perfect couple.
Agnes and John Regan, with guess who as the best man…
Agnes' maternal grandfather was Patrick Foley and John Regan's paternal grandfather was….John Regan. The two friends from Kilmichael, County Cork.
When we visited Kilmichael Parish in Cork, Ireland several years ago, we learned that the connection between Patrick Foley and John Regan may have been stronger than we thought. John Regan's mother was Ellen Foley. Patrick and John were cousins.
I thought this was very cool. Then my sister mentioned how that would have made grandma and grandpa some sort of cousins, too. Distant, of course, going back to their great-grandparents generation. In 19th century rural Ireland that must have happened a lot…right?
Distant cousins, yes, but friendship connected the Foley and Regan families through the generations, across an ocean and into a new world.
And I didn't even tell you how my grandma's mom and grandpa's aunt were life-long besties….

I live in Saint Paul, Minnesota. My heritage pretty much covers the map of Ireland: great-great-grandparents from Cork (Crowley, Foley, Regan), a great-great-grandmother from Clare (Quinn), a great-great-grandfather from Fermanagh (McMahon) and his wife's parents from Mayo (McAndrew), a great-grandmother from Connemara (Hannon) married to my great-grandfather from Laois (McCormack), great-grandparents from Sligo (Flannery), and a great-grandmother from Kildare (Hill). All of those people ended up in Minnesota, where my four grandparents were born. Three and four generations after my people left Ireland for America, I retain all Irish heritage. So much for the melting pot...

I really enjoyed this story. I haven't found cousin marriages with my Irish roots, yet. However, I've got a few in my Azorean lines. I kid that I am my own cousin. I think it was probably common in small villages and towns.
I agree. And just so it's a few generations removed! Thanks for the comment!

Love the family stories!! Those stories keep that Irish heritage alive and well here in Minnesota!!
Thanks, Cathy!

In the Philippines, be careful of what you retweet
A new cybercrime law in the Philippines would give unfettered powers to the state to monitor internet users, take down websites and imprison citizens writes Purple S. Romero
Netizens hold a placard and a keyboard as they rally against the anti-cybercrime act in front of the Supreme Court in Manila January 15, 2013. (REUTERS/Romeo Ranoco)
Filipinos are fast becoming addicted to social media. The Philippines was recently ranked as the tenth largest user of Twitter in the world, with 9.5 million members according to to social media monitor Semiocast. Twenty-seven million Filipinos are on Facebook yet the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 has provisions that critics say can lead to censorship and violation of freedom of expression – a disappointing development in a democratic country that boasts a vibrant and growing presence in social media.
One of the most problematic provisions of the Cybercrime Prevention Act is its penalising of electronic libel. The criminal sanctions for libel in the Philippines, according to a 2011 United Nations Committee on Human Rights already "constitute unlawful restrictions on the right to freedom of expression." As such, the laws go against the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, to which the Philippines is a signatory.
The main argument against the excessive criminalization of libel, according to various media groups, is that being imprisoned for something one has written (or, in the case of slander, spoken) creates a "chilling effect," discouraging critical reporting and diverse points of view.
The cybercrime law, however, not only reinforced the treatment of libel as a serious crime, but the penalty for it was also increased. Section 6 of the Cybercrime Prevention Act states that the penalty to be imposed "shall be one degree higher than that provided for by the Revised Penal Code." Under the Revised Penal Code, libel was punishable by imprisonment of between 6 months and 4 years; under the Cybercrime Prevention Act, the prison time is now between 6 and 12 years.
The provision on increased penalties for cybercrimes was removed in the version of the bill considered by the House of Representatives, but then was inserted again by the Senate (the Philippines has a bicameral legislature – a bill may either emanate from the House of Representatives or the Senate).
The public, however, was left in the cold.
Why should electronic libel be subject to graver penalties than that of ordinary libel? Assistant Secretary Geronimo Sy from the Department of Justice said this was because the Internet allows not only the faster dissemination of libelous information, but also its wider reach. Damage to someone's reputation is just one click away.
During the oral arguments in the Supreme Court on January 15, one of the Justices said that a Twitter user can just easily destroy someone's reputation, as a single tweet can reach hundreds of thousands, even millions of followers. The protection of private citizens is therefore considered to be a key responsibility of the state.
The language of the law is vague however, on who can be held responsible for electronic libel. Unlike in ordinary libel, which specifies the scope of culpability (from the writer or reporter to the publisher), ambiguity shrouds the compass of responsibility for electronic libel. Most particularly, questions have been raised over whether those who re-tweet or re-post a Facebook status will also be nabbed for the same crime.
Some assurance against this was given. Sy commented that it would not be feasible for the prosecutors to track down, probe and arrest every single person who made a re-tweet, adding that the authorities would only go after the source. Subsequent developments bring this into doubt, however.
The other provision of the law that give the government control over information is section 19, or the 'takedown clause,' which authorizes the Justice Department to restrict access to websites that contain harmful content based on prima facie evidence.
The government has backtracked on this and said that this provision should be nullified because it constitutes prior restraint.
That the president signed a law containing a provision that his own government would later deem unconstitutional only magnifies questions about how the law was made.
A study of the Filipino Congress' deliberations over the law shows the above provisions were passed with nary a debate. The provision concerning online libel, for instance, was added in a single plenary session.
Considerations over the distinct features and character of online communication were not addressed, details were not threshed out and the key stakeholders or experts were not consulted.
As an example of the harm caused by a lack of debate over the issue, there was limited discussion on what makes content "harmful." The only concerns raised on this issue were that authorities may misconstrue what is pornographic and what is not but critics of the cybercrime legislation noted how authorities and public officials could also label criticisms of the government as "harmful content."
If the law is upheld as valid, law enforcement authorities can also collect real-time traffic data without having to secure a court warrant. Traffic data, under the law, refers to "any computer data other than the content of the communication including, but not limited to, the communication's origin, destination, route, time, date, size, duration or type of underlying service."
Sy said this provision is helpful for monitoring the emails and text messages of suspected terrorists but since the collection of data is warrantless, there is the spectre of abuse. During the oral arguments on January 15 another Justice commented that the law did not explain how ordinary citizens could check if the authorities are really just collecting traffic data and are not also looking into the content of the emails, text messages, etc and so on.
The Supreme Court has stopped the government from implementing the cybercrime law. Even so, the government's control on public speech has not been diminished. Anti-mining activist Esperlita Garcia has since been arrested over a Facebook post she made about the dispersal of a rally in October 2012.
A police chief also "invited" people to a police station for criticizing on Facebook the authorities' alleged failures in stopping robberies. None of the seven people who were asked to show up came, however. Superintendent Rico Tome said the police would just like to remind them that their defamatory remarks were punishable.
The cybercrime law was not even invoked in these incidents – the existing libel law proved sufficient to explain their actions. The chilling effect of the existing libel law makes it difficult for the public to trust the state to not abuse the Cybercrime Prevention Act.The problem with the cybercrime law goes beyond the Act itself. Its weaknesses mirror a lawmaking process that is devoid of the spirit of debate, wanting of honest research and lacking of a mechanism for feedback that could turn the law into what they were initially envisioned to be – a potent tool against hacking, online pornography and identity theft.
Because there was no transparency and inclusivity in the drafting of the cybercrime law, there are also doubts that it will be implemented properly, and when it is enforced, that rights will be respected and due process observed. The lack of a public voice in the law-making process has created a cornucopia of fear. People say it will lead to e-martial law, a throwback to the time when the freedom to speak out against those in power was quelled brutally. Just as in 1986, however, Filipinos will fight for their right to speak freely. They cannot be silenced, both in the real and virtual world.

We are three high school students in eleventh grade taking a course called "Language and Literature;" in this course explore taboo and hate speech. We were asked to read a discussion article on "www.freespeechdebate.com," and this discussion intrigued us the most
What we understood of your argument was that you are antagonistic towards the Philippine's new Cybercrime Prevention act of 2012; that the Philippines' government is given unrestrained powers in order to detect internet users. Section 6 of the new Cybercrime Prevention Act, the consequence of libel can result in imprisonment of between six and twelve years, while before it was six months and four years. We agree that six months to four years is far too strict of a punishment. Even though, in the Philippines freedom of speech has allowed, the citizens have no say in the laws. There is no consensus in the Cybercrime Prevention Act in the Philippines with the people and the government.
The 'Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012' is mainly about treating all cyber crimes on the same level. For example the way pornography is treated is the same for one single twitter user posting against the government or authority. On January 15th of 2013, the Supreme Court stated that twitter users can easily destroy the reputation of any individual, and that those individuals should be punished. Geronimo Sy from the Department of Justice states otherwise, that it would be most likely impossible to track down single individuals who are out to harm. Agreeing to this, we believe in freedom of speech. Freedom of speech was given to Filipinos only twenty-eight years ago. This makes it look like taking away freedom of speech on the internet would be a substandard idea.
As of our opinion toward how the Philippine government on how they are trying to solve the internet usage, we believe that the government is approaching the situation in the wrong way. In comparison to Europe, new tough cyber laws have been passed by the EU ruling that hackers and cyber attackers will face at least two years of prison in the future. This generally sounds less serious than the punishments in the Philippines, but the EU dedicates research to investigate major attacks and to correctly punish cybercrime, individuals or groups so they are given the correct punishment and their imprisonment depends on the seriousness and damage of the crime. Five year imprisonments are given to attacks to "critical infrastructure," such as power plants, transport networks and government networks, and the same applies if an attack is committed by a criminal organisation.
We understand your strong opinion towards the Filipino laws on cyber crime, but the country we live in (The Netherlands) is known for its tolerance in free speech, however it also has an organization and laws about this topic. For instance, Dutch minister of security and justice Ivo Opstellen proposed empowering Dutch law enforcement to access and control the computers of suspected cyber criminals, even if those computers are outside of the Netherlands. The "Nationaal Cyber Security Centrum" has a few responsibility to continuously watch suspect sources on the internet and warn them if they commit a crime. They also organize advertisements on how to protect yourself from digital dangers.
In comparison to The Philippines, The Netherlands, cybercrime is addressed differently and perceived less strictly.
The point that we are trying to make is that it is vague and unclear how the Filipino government and police are identifying what a cybercrime is and what can be considered "criticizing" on the internet.
