My Parents Were Executed


From Democracy Now

Son of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg: “My Parents Were Executed Under the Unconstitutional Espionage Act — Here’s Why We Must Fight to Protect Julian Assange”:

As the U.S. Department of Justice considers charging WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange under the Espionage Act of 1917, we speak with Robert Meeropol, the son of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg—the only U.S. citizens to be executed under the Espionage Act, in what’s been described as the most controversial death sentence in U.S. history. This week, Meeropol released a widely read statement in support of WikiLeaks called, “My Parents Were Executed Under the Unconstitutional Espionage Act—Here’s Why We Must Fight to Protect Julian Assange.” [includes rush transcript]

Image Management on Blogs

I’ve jumped around a bit with how to store photos on my blogs. Flickr seemed good as it tied in with an instant community, but uploading to flickr is not quick, and getting the photos back to show in a post is a bit messy. WordPress uploads (to WordPress on my server) seemed ok for a while but it is too complex. I also had some flash based displays & uploads that were ok. But now I am experimenting with putting them all on my own server just with FTP and using open source Zenphotos. It seems I am more in control and it is quick with FTP.

The 2010 image are here.

In 2011 I will link back from the photos site to the blog posts as well. As I’ve already done on the one new photo in the album:
