Digg Reader Launches June 26

Google Reader will shut down on July 1, but Digg Reader will debut on June 26 to satisfy users' RSS feed read need.

Digg.com announced the launch of Digg Reader as a work-in-progress by saying, "RSS aggregation is a hard thing to do at scale, and we want to make sure the experience is as fast and reliable as possible."

There was much weeping and gnashing of teeth when Google announced the impending death of Google Reader, the free RSS feed organizing tool used by millions of Internet users around the world.

Can you Digg it?

Digg.com said the business will make it as easy as possible to migrate users' existing feeds from Google Reader to Digg Reader, which will feature a mobile app and sharing options.

Ironically, Digg held juicy talks with Google five years ago for a $200 million acquisition plan that never panned out amid a ton of buzz.

Digg.com, the popular social news website founded in San Francisco, was sold last year to other parties including venture capitalists at Betaworks, who invite all Google Reader users to try Digg Reader on June 26.

California Firestorm Apocalypse

California fire officials are warning Californians to take extreme caution during an apocalyptic 2013 fire season that firefighters say may be the worst in a century.

State fire authorities say the combination of warm winds, abysmal rainfall and bone-dry conditions points to a devastating brushfire season, especially in Southern California.

"Fire conditions in Southern California are at levels we have not seen in many, many years," declared California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection Director Ken Pimlott.  "These are fires that directly impact the state's natural resources and the very water that we drink and the air that we breathe."

Firefighters are bracing for literally thousands of projected fires in California, including some horrifying, fast-moving walls of fire associated with destructive firestorms that can kill all life forms in their path.

"Look on the news and see what's occurring in Colorado and Colorado Springs," Ken Pimlott emphasized. "The exact same conditions exist in California."

City, county and state fire officials are desperately urging all California property owners to clear out all dry brush as far away from homes and buildings as possible to minimize fire destruction, injuries and loss of life.

An apocalyptic California fire season is officially underway for the next few months, so prepare for natural disaster immediately with emergency supplies and survival essentials.

For those who may think California firestorms are a joke:

Watch the following fire video captured by a driver on a burning California freeway --- a firestorm full of flames that no Californian would want to face head-on.

Stand Up and Fight Back

Now is the time to stand up and fight back against anything or anyone that has taken control over you.

If you're waiting for a sign, this is it.  Get on your feet.  NOW.

Whether your enemy is a person, place or thing, whether your adversary is spiritual, mental or physical, or whether your nemesis is internal or external, your window of victory is now wide open.

Seize the day.  Get up.  Punch back.  Fight like you've never fought in your entire life.  Now it's your turn for tables to turn.

Don't waste this strategic sliver of time.  You've had enough time to think, feel and say.  Now DO.

The wind is at your back, the race is downhill, and justice is one victory away --- no matter if you're male or female, young or old, rich or poor, sick or well.

The red carpet has just rolled out for you, so start your advance.  Your opponent is much more vulnerable today than usual.

The glass has a tiny crack in it already from ages ago, so give it a good punch and shatter the illusion into a million pieces.

Time is of the essence.

FIGHT BACK.

Edward Snowden Conspiracy Theory

Edward Snowden is the alleged NSA whistleblower and PRISM project leaker who supposedly outed himself while reportedly hiding out in a Hong Kong hotel.

Edward Snowden's mea culpa went public on the same weekend that saw Rancho Mirage, California visited by U.S. President Obama, Chinese President Xi Jinping, California Governor Brown and Los Angeles Mayor Villaraigosa.

Not by accident, the "Sunnylands Summit" was held in California, the technology capitol of the world, with the goal of reaching agreements on technological matters, including surveillance and espionage.

Immediately following the US-China tech-talk pow-wow, a young tech professional, who worked with the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency, suddenly granted media interviews to expose himself as a sacrificial martyr for truth.

Snowden, 29, has reportedly worked for defense contractor Booz Allen Hamilton, as well as the NSA, CIA, Dell, and other unnamed contractors.

The whistleblower alleged that his leaked documents exposed the NSA lying to Congress regarding the domestic surveillance of Americans, but insiders allege that some members of Congress secretly knew all along about ongoing spying and wiretapping.

Astonishingly, Edward Snowden has somehow managed to evade the highly-advanced surveillance machines of the USA and communist China, while one of his former employers reportedly cannot remember him at all.

Some wonder if the "leak" was calibrated.  Others insist the whole story is a government psyop.  Most, though, are waving Old Glory and declaring Snowden a hero of the people.

Regardless, Edward Snowden conspiracy theories are filling up the same Internet that is reportedly a giant surveillance operation itself.

Who's watching you?
