Edward Snowden identifies himself as source of NSA leaks

Here’s a summary of where things stand:

• Edward Snowden, 29, an employee of defense contractor Booz Allen Hamilton, revealed himself to be the whistleblower behind the exposure of secret NSA surveillance programs. Snowden said he acted out of a desire to protect “privacy and basic liberties”.

• Guardian journalists Glenn Greenwald and Ewen MacAskill have interviewed Snowden in Hong Kong, where he traveled from his home in Hawaii in late May. ”The only thing I fear is the harmful effects on my family, who I won’t be able to help any more” he said.

• A print profile of Snowden is here. A video interview is here and a Q&A is here.

• In Washington, the chairs of congressional intelligence committees said they thought Snowden’s disclosures are criminal and they expect him to be prosecuted if possible.

• Senator Rand Paul said he would try to challenge the NSA surveillance programs in court and Senator Mark Udall called for ‘reopening’ the Patriot Act to remove the legal foundation for broad surveillance sweeps.

A New Perspective of the Day: Wringing Out Water from a Washcloth in Space

Tenth graders Kendra and Meredith from Fall River, Nova Scotia recently took a top prize the Canadian Space Agency’s Science Challenge with a washcloth-wringing experiment. As part of their prize, Col. Chris Hadfield, currently living in the International Space Station, made a video showing exactly what happens when a person tries to wring out a washcloth in zero gravity.

“

This is a giant planet and we’re lucky to live on it but there are prices and penalties incurred for the daily miracle of existence. One of them is, every once in awhile, the wiring of a tiny sliver of the species gets snarled and they’re pointed towards darkness.

But the vast majority stands against that darkness and, like white blood cells attacking a virus, they dilute and weaken and eventually wash away the evil doers and, more importantly, the damage they wreak. This is beyond religion or creed or nation. We would not be here if humanity were inherently evil. We’d have eaten ourselves alive long ago.
