Japan tsunami video - 30 minutes - from 2011

[Peter Szerlagi]

If you want to burn into your mind the danger of tsunamis - watch this video

https://youtu.be/G_0rQ9hnP84

close up view as tsunami wrecks a major city

01:00 - water in river is ebbing

02:16 - tsunami starts coming up river

03:50 - small fire engine goes by with loudspeaker

05:00 - approx - camera man runs up stairs at school

13:00 - fire truck floats by

24:00 - approx - first cloud of smoke seen in the distance

28:00 - huge fire in darkness

284 firefighters died that day -


back story - there had been a false tsunami alarm 2 days earlier
(somewhere in Japan) - there was little earthquake damage in this city
- the water rose kinda slowly at first, and you had no idea how much
was coming

Stu...... ferry captain in the world - Hyannis MA

[Peter Szerlagi]

http://whdh.com/news/captain-couldnt-see-breakwater-before-ferry-crash/

I know there is a breakwater out there somewhere - but I cant see it -
so lets continue at full speed - ( I can just imagine who the ferry
captain is related to )

"the waves were too high" - not the only thing that was high LOL

The sad part is - 99% of the people in Massachusetts will 'buy' this
lame excuse - because ... lack of courage ... advanced dementia 
shakey leg syndrome .. not my job .. checks in the mail ..

Digital Identity Guidelines from NIST

[Peter Szerlagi]

https://trustedidentities.blogs.govdelivery.com/2017/06/22/mic-drop-announcing-the-new-special-publication-800-63-suite/

Approximately 25 short paragraphs of text here - should be no problem
for computer nerds - most hams will probably understand most of it

National Institute of Science and Technology has published a new
special document pertaining to digital identities and security. More
than 1,000 comments were received during the year long synthesis
phase.

This is mostly over my head but it seems that "state issued photo ID"
is being replaced by selfies; and maybe selfies of finger prints or
eyeballs or nose hair or something - or maybe people will breath on
their cellphone to deposit some DNA for a quick scan

One problem - the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is coming out
with their own document soon - but they have been collaborating with
NIST along the way

Trouble in Warren MA - 20 minute video

[Peter Szerlagi]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtbcXrGjmyY

candidate for Selectman explains how he was harassed by the local police

2 or 3 cops went to his home the day before the election for no apparent reason

on the election day they moved him away from the ( ? town hall ? ) -
again for no apparent reason

and then a police detective was yelling at him and an elderly woman /
business owner for no apparent reason

to be fair - I have no idea what the Town's side of the story is

Look at the 2nd video

[Peter Szerlagi]

https://www.statter911.com/2017/06/25/drone-video-more-from-two-homes-burning-in-wildwood-crest-new-jersey/

women on phone reporting either a car fire or a grill fire - possibly
not mentioning that the entire rear of the 2.5 story bld is on fire

I wonder if they just sent 1 engine to a "car fire" ?
