Would emailing your state representative actually make a difference? Do they even check their emails?

admin — Sat, 22 Jan 2011 14:01:48 +0000

I know our economy is kind of in the crapper right now and I have a feeling it may turn around but I thought if a lot of people started emailing their representatives about the fact they are fed up with high fuel and food prices do you think it would make a difference?

Parents: should someone visit your childs school to talk about Online Predators?

admin — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 10:39:30 +0000

I dont like to call myself a ‘victim” of an online predator because I take responsibility for my actions, but that is still what i’m classified as. I have been working on starting a campaign about Internet awareness and online predators. I would like to hear what you would think if someone went to your local school to tell their story about what happened to them when they met an online predator and gave some statistics and tried to promote safer online activity by the younger children in your community. Young children become “victims” of online predators on a daily basis. Myself and the people I’m working with to start my campaign believe that its something that needs to be taken care of, its something that needs to be addressed and it may not be pretty but its a disgusting fact of life that there are people like that out there that Young teens need to be aware of. So again, I would like to know what you would think if someone went to your local school to tell their story?

Have a slogan for a marketing print campaign containing two pro athletes?

admin — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 19:09:16 +0000

I have a very catchy slogan for an ad (figure billboards, magazine page) that would contain 2 pro athletes in the ad.
I am trying to figure out how i can copyright or patten my marketing slogan (also know that there are two pro athletes names in my slogan that i want to make mine).
Any advice on how i can make this original slogan or phrase if you will mine…so if i present it to a company (say like Nike), they can’t use it against me and say it is there own.
Thanks for all the help you can supply to me with your knowledge!

Tobacco compaines targeting teens? Thoughts?

admin — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 05:58:41 +0000

WEDNESDAY, Nov. 1 (HealthDay News) — Anti-smoking ads on television produced by tobacco companies and aimed at parents may actually be encouraging children to start smoking, Australian researchers report.

“The tobacco companies are up to their old tricks,” said Danny McGoldrick, director of research at the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. “Anyone who thinks that the tobacco companies have reformed are kidding themselves.”

McGoldrick was not involved in the study, which was led by researchers at The Cancer Council Victoria in Melbourne.

They looked at television ratings data from 75 media markets in the United States. The team specifically looked at average exposure to tobacco company-sponsored anti-smoking ads, both those targeted to youths and others targeted to parents. Some of these ads featured titles such as “Think. Don’t Smoke” and “Tobacco Is Whacko If You’re a Teen.”

The researchers also looked over data from a U.S. national school-based survey from more than 100,000 children from 1999 to 2002.

The report was published in the Oct. 31 online edition of the American Journal of Public Health.

The researchers found that, among young children, there weren’t many links between exposure to tobacco company ads and smoking attitudes and behavior.

However, among high school students, seeing parent-targeted ads was associated with kids expressing a lowered sense of smoking as harmful, a stronger approval of smoking, stronger intentions to smoke in the future and a greater likelihood of having smoked in the past 30 days, the researchers found.

“Why weren’t voting systems being tested for Security?” – I.T.A. Independent auditors of election software.

Democracy: Can we trust systems that have no accountability?

* With electronic voting machines tabulating more than 80 percent of the ballots cast in America,
* Seattle grandmother Bev Harris set out to determine the obvious: Do they work?
* Based on the evidence presented here, the answer is “not really”
* The picture that emerges as Harris unearths a treasure trove of info about mishandled votes and the inner workings of the machines is that they’re not only fallible but also highly vulnerable to hacking.

* This wonderful documentary proves my point that we have the best democracy that money can buy
* along with our judicial system.
* This film is more frightening than any horror film I’ve seen, because THIS IS REAL!
* And this is movie biased?
* Not at all.
* It’s an absolute eye opener that shows that your vote really doesn’t count; and make sure you watch the deleted scenes(another 33 minutes of fantastic footage).

This is an excellent documentary that I think every American should see before they vote again. This is not a movie about Bush vs. Kerry or Republicans vs. Democrats. Its about our current voting system and exposing a multitude of problems with that system as demonstrated in the 2004 election. We are told “EVERY VOTE COUNTS” and this documentary exposes the corruption, mistruths, and shameful negligence and mishandling of these “VOTES” in a way that cannot be denied nor ignored – unless you don’t watch it for yourself.

This is a must-see documentary, especially for those still doubtful about whether elections in this country can be tampered with. The answer is yes, yes, yes!!! Kudos to Bev Harris who has dedicated years to exposing the corruption surrounding electronic voting. Get this. After Hacking Democracy’s premiere on HBO, Harris received death threats. That’s how risky and powerful her work is.

This is an amazing documentary showing that there are problems with the way we vote in America. When a normal everyday citizen gets up and challenges the system, you see how the system fights back. This woman doesn’t give up like most of us would and shows us and one election official in Florida that the way our voting system was run and still is, has errors.

If you are an American & have the ability to vote, please do yourself a favor and put this in your queue immediately(especially since this is an election year). This wonderful documentary proves my point that we have the best democracy that money can buy, along with our judicial system. This film is more frightening than any horror film I’ve seen, because THIS IS REAL! And this is movie biased? Not at all. It’s an absolute eye opener that shows that your vote really doesn’t count; and make sure you watch the deleted scenes(another 33 minutes of fantastic footage).

Even though I also watched the original slasher classic Black Christmas, this was the scariest movie I saw over the Christmas break. Although the filmmakers obviously have every reason to sensationalize potential problems with electronic voting systems (“good news is no news,” right?), the implications here are frightening. Not only did Bev Harris (founder of a non-partisan watchdog group) find voting machine code unprotected on the internet, she was able to successfully hack it and prove that results could be manipulated (you can watch this being done in a matter of seconds in this film). The lack of oversight of the companies who control the majority of electronic voting is astounding, almost as bad as the sloppy manner in which our government oversees the elections themselves.

Probably the scariest movie I’ve watched in a long time. The production value isn’t good, but its worth sitting through to find out just how easy it would be for just one person with an agenda to manipulate the outcome of an election.

Politics in America is scarey enough, but when you see what is going on with our elections system, you will just go through the roof. We have hoped through the last few centuries that a government of the people, by the people and for the people would not parish from the face of the earth, and that America would be its shining example. After viewing this flick, you will realize just how tarnished our example has become. We have realized in the past decades, that money rules, and it just feels like our votes don’t count, only the money that backs our politicians. Only the corporations and special interests have access to the politicians these days, not the people that vote. This picture goes a long way to explaining how that happens. After realizing the truths in this documentary, I feel even more helpless and useless to change a corrupt government by my vote. Did my vote get counted? How would I even know? The facts put forth in this program are just about incredible, but you come away realizing their powerful credibility. I wondered why their hasn’t been criminal prosecution of the election fraud that is running rampant in our country today? Where are prosecuters? Why aren’t elections officials who ignore our right to have our votes counted, recounter and certified being placed on trial for crimes against the electorate? You owe it to yourself and your country to see this documentary long before the next election. Don’t miss this one!

Wow. I just finished watching this documentary, and I can’t believe what I heard and saw. This is not another Michael Moore speculative film that makes assumptions with no factual evidence. This is incredible. Everyone should see this film. It is truly an amazing look inside of our election system.

We must all see this movie. It’s not JUST about elections. It’s about the undermining of our society, the breakdown. My opinion is that we should get away from secret voting and out into the public. Democracy is where WE THE PEOPLE elect our officials. You must see this to know why I write this.

This is what makes America great: a woman, with a full life, puts it all behind her because she has come across the ultimate injustice and knows that she must right it. This is the story of the creation of the group and webpage BlackBoxVoting.com Having found the Diebold’s source code, a code that not even the President of the United States can see, Bev Harris takes the code to an expert. What is revealed causes Harris to criss cross America, to prove the fact that Diebold had literally hijacked democracy. Although it’s possible, it’s difficult to believe that anyone can think that the 2004 Presidential Election wasn’t rigged after viewing this film. A ‘must see’ for every American.

One of the scariest movies I’ve ever seen… because it’s true. If you liked ‘All the presidents men’ or ‘The Insider’ You’ll like this movie. Actually come to think of it, what this story needs is a treatment like the above mentioned movies so the message could have a broader appeal beyond this documentary.

Highly recommedable as the documentary reveals what we all have been suspecting and fearing in an objective and somewhat scientific way. It is quite timely, and I think we can all relate to the topic at hand. I was touched by the reaction of some of the people in the movie when they proved how the voting system can be hacked without much effort

This film is all about voting machines and how votes are tabulated. It makes mincemeat of the Diebold Corporation, manufacturer of a large percentage of the electronic voting machines used in the United States. It reveals Diebold officials making lie after lie about the security of their machines. The makers of the film meticulously document how, using Diebold’s machines and data cards, someone with just a basic understanding of the technology involved (including, certainly, any Diebold employee) could rig the vote count, on one machine or on thousands of them, with absolutely no record that the rigging was ever done. The film also reveals how Diebold’s chief executive officer was (and maybe still is) a large contributor to the Republican Party. He once wrote a letter stating that he would “deliver” Ohio’s electoral votes in the 2004 presidential election for George W. Bush. The film later shows how his company managed to persuade Cuyahoga County, Ohio (where Cleveland is) to buy its machines. Maybe there is nothing fishy going on there, but appearances matter! Lest the film be seen as partisan, it features, among others, a Republican office-seeker from Louisiana who, after losing her race, went to view a demonstration of the machines that the voters used. As part of the demonstration she pressed the button next to her name, and the machine registered a vote for her opponent. Hmmm. She was understandably troubled. Moreover, the film points out that in many parts of the country it is in fact the local Republican Party that is wary of electronic voting machines, not the Democrats. Hacking Democracy also reveals problems with punch card voting systems–problems that dwarf the famous “hanging chad” problem of the 2000 presidential vote count in Florida. The film’s message is distressing, but it is one all American citizens should hear and see.

Yes, the documentary could use a bit of editing, but the points raised are valid enough to keep it interesting. Instead of taking a partisan view on the movie, realize how intensly frightening this movie really is. Should it be just one grandmother’s job to inform us how we’re being duped? No. It’s our responsibility as citizens to stay informed and demand voting accuracy.

SA 1674508, Yazheirx, JR 65420, RS 305556, their reviews are absolutely the threat that we all have about democracy. It is because their kind of ignorance that this movie is a 5 star and a must for every single human being to watch and learn. There is no excuse for any voting system to be too technical, too complex, too secret that we cannot prove what the votes were years from when the votes were taken. Not even 50 years, not even 100 years, not even 1000 years, not ever. For anyone to suggest that the electronic voting system is not possible to understand and to do a documentary for by a handful of heroic citizens, it is an insult to this country and democracy. Let these be the commandments of election: 1) No voting methods should be more complicated than what pen/pencil can do on a ballot. 2) Vote handling in any election process should be transparent to the public no matter when, why, how, what, who. 3) Only 100% accuracy should be accepted. Anything less then 100% should be recounted no matter how many times, how long it takes, and how much it cost to be 100% accurate. 4) Without 100% accuracy, election cannot be concluded. Another election should be conducted immediately without further delay.

Like several other reviewers I wanted to like this movie but the spin and lack of solution suggestions prevented me. I agree with the need for more transparency with voting machines. I think we should have an open source voting program such that interest groups can spend their money to improve them. I still could not get past the spin. The final documentary cardinal sin for me is – no solution recommended. I am all for people pointing out problems and issues, but please at least spend 2 minutes exploring what we could do (Who killed the electric car did this well). They did not even suggest the simplest of solutions use write once memory.

It takes movies like this to open up your eyes to the reality behind fraudulent and deceitful practices. From an early age, we are conditioned to believe what the government tells us. Fortunately, we have warriors like these folks who are willing to risk it all to uncover the truth. I applaud the movie makers who did this not for their own good, but to bring honor back to the one thing has makes us stand out as a nation… the right to vote. One of the most moving comments I heard was from the lady’s husband (an African-American male)… who basically said “we have spent decades fighting for the right to vote, and we’re not about to let that go for naught. If you vote, or you will someday vote… WATCH THIS MOVIE!!!

You should be scared..VERY SCARED. Bev Harris takes us through her journey of simply wondering why Al Gore had a negative amount of votes in Florida in the 2000 election. She discovers and unlocks a engine search on Google only to enter a world of lying, cover ups and deceit. The deliciously evil DieBold Company is as diabolical as they come with an evil CEO and his assorted flunkies trying to project their steadfast competancy, while trying cover up their sophomoric mechanical process that cannot begin to promise accuracy for determining vote tabulations. Please watch!

This documentary was further proof that Government should never be fully trusted, especially when they lean heavily on corporate interests and “free markets.” I advise anyone who intends to vote again to watch this. Yes, it can be too dramatic at times, but that is forgivable because of the point they’re trying to make here. The last two presidential elections were stolen from the people, are we going to let this happen again?

Your disgust for the corruption going on will make you appreciate the woman in this documentary. She’s just like you and I…but on an amazing, dedicated crusade to demand the truth within our voting system. This is not done in the same fashion as Michael Moore films (although I like M.M…..I take his spin on things with a grain of salt)….It is much more “real” and simplistic…Please watch if you care about the democratic system and our “gift” of the freedom to vote for our representatives!!

This documentary should be viewed by every citizen and legislator in the country. The exit polls which have been very reliable for decades have been stopped, because the polls favored both Gore and Kerry in 2000 and 2004. Please call your local, state and federal representatives to apprise them of this documentary. It is a must see. If this fixing of our votes continues unchecked, our country is lost to criminals who are on a campaign to lose the democracy and install a meritocracy/fascism state.

4) Anyone who tempered, manipulated, or impede election transparency should have his or her name and photograph posted at all polling location as warning. 5) All voting records must be transparent and available to the public no matter when, where, how, who, what, why, for as long as this universe exist. 6) If the voting devices are insufficient to support the number of voters or voter satisfaction, any traditionally acceptable voting methods must be applied immediately upon voters’ request even if it means by ways of raising hands or handwriting the vote and be certified and witnessed by election officials. It is election officials’ responsibility to make sure no one is turned away from voting due to the environment, the facility, the devices, the personnel, the transit, or the safety. It is because of this movie, that I understand the shame and disgrace that we will all be facing should we become complacent from protecting the sacred rights and experience of voting. I for one would not want to be known as the generation that allowed this country’s election process be deteriorate and be mocked forever in the history.

This documentary was one of the most frightening things I have ever seen. The ease with which are elections can be manipulated is scary. The fact that Diebold uses deception and tricks of speech to try and weasel out of responsibility is reprehensible. No matter their defense as to why, the fact is that a middle income housewife was able to download their “secret” program and with a little help change the votes of a test election with nothing but a memory card. This film should be seen by every American, regardless of political orientation. A false election is the worst insult to our heritage and every man, woman and child who ever lived and died in this “free” society.

You have to see this. It is truly shocking to see how easily this software can be manipulated by using elementary hacking techniques. It is obvious to me that these companies do not have our interests in mind in the slightest. And it is not a democrat or republican thing either. Both parties’ candidates are seeing irregularities on a regular basis. All of us need to be calling our representatives at the local, state and federal level to let them know we demand independent oversight and testing on these machines.

I really wanted to get behind this movie, but at no time did it provide any evidence that there was any intentional voter fraud of any kind going on. All they did was demonstrate how one could hack a system if they knew everything about how it works. Yay. Machines are just as fallible as people, we get it. Both could be potentially influenced without any accountability. For me, this documentary was just another hot-headed account of what “might” be happening, without any proof presented. As usual, the possibility that simple incompetance is the more likely culprit, rather than some right/left conspiracy, was never addressed.

OH MY GOD!! I knew about how Diebold purportedly ***** and I’d heard about the voter fraud in Ohio–but to actually see it, to witness it with your own eyes, and to see how the poor blacks in Ohio were relegated to one voting machine with 4-5 hour waits…it’s just shocking. It made me so ashamed of this country, this government, and the big corporations who run it (although there was one “YEAH CALIFORNIA!” moment in there). Unfortunately, it does not have a happy ending, and it left us wondering what we could do to help. Very sobering. Everyone should see this, and I know I’ll be recommending it to all my friends & co-workers.
