BREAKING NEWS: DO NOT DOWNLOAD VERY MALICIOUS FAKE JAVA "UPDATE" DATED TODAY -- VERY MALICIOUS SOFTWARE RELEASED - SEE ORACLE WEBSITE FOR FIX

     Tuesday, 28 January 2013, REDWOOD SHORES, CALIFORNIA - Just as the Ninth Amendment editorial board recently reminded readers that the Ninth Amendment should NOT BE RELIED upon as a primary computer software security source, the board voted late this afternoon after a most malicious fake version of Java software was once again released just weeks after a much less threatening virus that the Ninth Amendment log had to do its part to get this information out to our readers as soon as possible.
     Unlike the last version of the hackers Java, this version invites users directly to take the virus onboard by flashing a message of a "Java Update" available at the click of a mouse. As we all too soon found out the Ninth Amendment found its computers soon debilitated at points around the globe.
     This fake Java upgrade poses serious potential for the incapacitation of almost all users who have a need for Java in a computer session, particularly developers. We again emphatically warn that the Ninth Amendment neither intended to become nor is it by any means any "expert" on computer issues. Many alerts have been put out on Microsoft, Oracle and in many other locations on the internet. As best expleained (and please do no rely on us) for those who are casual computer users they can simply unplug the Java plug-in to incapacitate it for the time time being, or set security for Java use to the highest levels to remind users that they must not use it at this time.
     At least two downloads are available, including on the Oracle web pages, setting out the two versions of a software response Oracle has engineered. Both rely on the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in more recent versions of Java. The simpler free download is sufficient for regular users of Java. The second more complex download for use by developers who have frequent need for Java incorporates the first as well.
     This FAKE JAVA DOWNLOAD is particularly malicious because it exploits other weaknesses in the computer running environment that are triggered by the initial fake Java download. As always the Ninth Amendment encourages our readers who may well be more capable than we to research this on their own until a solution is publicized. In the meantime, do not run the FAKE JAVA DOWNLOAD.
     Meanwhile in other new Facebook once again cements Zuckerboy's most friendly relationship with European regulators who earlier pulled the plug on his CIA-friendly face-recognition technology in the European Union. Today Facebook officers admitted that they have no way of knowing, nor have they ever known, how to keep children such as girls under thirteen years of age from creating false personas on Facebook.
     Google is expected to announce that it will demonstrate its own worship of the dollar at any price, including the safety of domestic privacy of young girls, by using its "Earth" mapping satellite photography to release collector's editions of digital "albums" pinpointing the last known location of such Facebook "clients" for the benefit of sex offenders who may have recently been released in the young Facebook girls home neighborhoods and now can find the information they long for right at their fingertips, thanks to Facebook's fierce rival Zuckerboy and his team of child exploitation experts.

Draft Krugman Pressure Grows As Krugman Threatens To Join Japan Government

     Tuesday, 22 January 2013, NEW YORK, NEW YORK - Nobel Prize winning best-selling iconoclast (destroyer of images) revolutionary author, Princeton University economics professor, New York Times columnist on the economics of inequality (without according to sources taking any pay), known as a most reserved and intensely private man in his copious free time when not also frequently participating in and attending cultural events and reportedly reading as much as MIT linguistics professor Noam Chomsky (as many as eight world newspapers before breakfast).
     Happy New Year, Professor Krugman. Yes, we have had at the Ninth Amendment with a couple exceptions a woefully inadequate start to the year with a dearth of fresh posts amidst a virtual flood of unexpectedly noteworthy news with its usual either virtually complete omission or dangerously misinterpreted overlooked potential long-term significance by the mainstream press portending amongst other things a slew of Bush-syle "Mission Accomplished" proclamations by the Government which at the very moment those words are struck is busy laying the groundwork for the next conflict. In most cases the Government patiently has been waiting for the soldiers to assemble for initial deployment or re-deployment as the case may be, and the next generation of weapons has carefully been prepared to once again see America's soldiers serendipitously prepared for just the demands of the latest strategic and global developments in some formerly barely known corner of the world.
     With all due respect, sir, we unanimously advise you not go to Japan right now to visit the Emperor. The editorial board of the Ninth Amendment log at www.waronnothing.blogspot.com unanimously so votes (with one procedural abstention due to a temporary ugly misunderstanding with Mali customs officials) that it would not be in the best interest of you nor your 2016 Presidential campaign for you to become yet more irradiated than Western physicians already have made all of us. It also is hard to see how even you would have the time considering your many other serious commitments. Your domestic electoral base grows exponentially as your strength, persistence, intellect, wisdom, experience, complete independence of rigorously informed thought, and absolute willingness to act accordingly, make themselves abundantly clear.      
     You further are understood to be a man of your word unlike our current President Obama who sadly demonstrates his failure to comprehend that a person in the end has nothing more than their word. Thus suggesting (dare we say) that the Founding Fathers might have considered upping in the Constitution the minimum age for one to serve as President. In any case our unsolicited suggestion is that you avoid travel to Japan for the moment and leave that to Texas Governor Perry and his wife to drum up Japanese tourism business for Texas. By the way we recognize the sheer brilliance of the coin minting proposal and humbly suggest failing that the issuance of a stamp.

California Teacher Pension Fund Considers Reducing Major Investments In Assault Weapon, Banana Clip Makers -- Gun Dealers Thrive In Wake Of Newtown Massacre

     Sunday, 13 January 2013, SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA - The California Teachers Pension Fund, the country's largest teachers' pension fund as well as its largest such investor for many years apparently has helped California teachers live out more comfortable retirements by investing heavily in manufacturers of arms including guns and ammunition of all types, including military guns illegal in California, more lethal military ammunition, and high-capacity so-called "banana clips" for the effective uninterrupted firing of rounds from assault and other military weapons.
     The California Teachers Pension Fund reportedly is considering reducing such investment in the wake of the Nation's most recent weeks' domestic firearms massacre as almost always perpetrated by male teenagers and unhappy younger men armed with easily legally obtained military assault weapons outfitted with banana clips and/or other accessories to help insure the uninterrupted (and unskilled) hunting down of tens of unarmed schoolchildren and other civilians.
     Particularly infamous such massacres have occurred in Columbine, Ohio, as well as others by somewhat older males in the attempted slaying at an Arizona "meet and greet" of United States Representative Gabrielle Giffords shot through the middle of the head, the Texas clock tower sniper, the San Ysidro, California McDonald's massacre particularly frustrating to law enforcement as it continued unabated for about one half hour as the restaurant had all mirrored windows and thus obscured officers' vision as the killer methodically hunted down diners outfitted  in camouflage gear and face paint who before leaving home down the street reportedly told his wife he was "going out hunting".
     Other such massacres allegedly have been perpetrated by more uniquely memorable aggressors such as the soft-spoken Army psychiatrist who in recent years left his office at Fort Hood and walked along a row of near-naked unarmed soldiers awaiting physical exams and shot them to death one by one. To his credit Idiot Texas Liar Governor Rick "Payback" Perry himself did use only his (laser-sighted) "six-shooter" for "defensive" purposes to become the first person known in North America to claim that the killing was in self-defense of an attacking coyote while Perry was out on his morning run with his enormous armed security detail. (He corrected reports of his account during the following day upon learning a coyote never had attacked and killed a human in North America with his revised story of having pulled the laser-sighted revolver from the back of his running shorts and killing the coyote in defense of his Labrador Retriever.)
     Right on the heels of the country's most recent massacre in Newtown, Connecticut the proprietor of a four times annual gun "show" in Saratoga Springs, New York told media that he was determined and proud to continue with his gun "show" with apparent strong support of many gun "show" attendees whose hands he personally shook as they entered the "show" less than a month after the Newtown massacre. Many attendees congratulated him on his bravery and fortitude on going ahead with the "show" even in the face of angry verbal protests against it. Meanwhile his wife attested to the selling out of military assault-style weapons and accessories at their own gun shop as well as others around the country, with a line of waiting mostly male buyers she described as lined up for two blocks waiting to get in and make purchases.
     The use of quotations as follows around the word "show" is intended to suggest that the Ninth Amendment editorial staff believes to some extent the word "show" in the context of basically completely uncontrolled arms flea markets across this country on Main Street, USA attended by effectively unregulated sellers and buyers of questionable legal status to be engaging in the sale of what are often basically akin to weapons of war might be considered by some to be a misnomer which is better avoided as misleading..
     In the wake of the most recent Newtown massacre debate raged across the United States if the ready availability of such weapons of war has been a positive domestic development for the United States. Tens of thousands of gun dealers who have obtained virtual mail order "licenses" are authorized under United States law for the retail often effectively unrecorded trafficking in arms including those with no other apparent intended use other than engaging in warfare against armed combatants. Included amongst these are military assault weapons with marginally clever modifications to make them just as effective as those used by such groups as insurgents and criminal governments the world over.  Of course use in the United States considerably reduces the "fear factor" of having unarmed civilians such as schoolchildren actually fire back.
     Nearly all purchasers reportedly are young men, many apparently purchasing such arms out of concern that some Government, presumably theirs, will attempt to abrogate some Constitutional right to own such weapons which they in some cases understand to emanate presumably from the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. That Amendment implicitly provides for the establishment of a militia in times of need instead of the maintenance of a permanent standing army, such as was warned against by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in his final White House televised live address to the Nation. Such weapons, perhaps with none-to-difficult modifications, are expected by many who obtain them to provide for their defense should they be attacked by their own country. The United States, however, is known to possess weapons of mass destruction as well as large amounts of presumably heavier weaponry than assault rifles.
     Our hearts and prayers go out to all innocent souls whose lives directly and indirectly have been harmed and/or destroyed by the past weeks most recent United States home soil massacre. God Bless America.

Security Alerts Home Computers - DISABLE JAVA NOW! - Governments, Media, Experts Warn Zero-Hour Hacker Attack

     Saturday, 12 January 2013, REDWOOD SHORES, CALIFORNIA - Another major "zero hour" security alert has been announced by various government and media sources for all Java users on all platforms and browsers. Readers should find instructions for disabling Java, purchased by Oracle Corporation and since suffering many breaches most recently in another believed "ransom" hacker attack, by searching the term "disable Java" on readers' preferred search engines or combinations thereof.
     This follows on the announcement of a hacker attack on Facebook seeking to dupe users into giving up private information in response to a fake message to users purporting to be from Facebook's security detail. Information on this should also be readily available on Ninth Amendment readers' favorite search engines or combinations thereof.
     Otherwise the past year has seen a spate of near-hysterical "security alerts" from corporations which once made their money largely unknown to purchasers of, particularly, Windows programs paying Microsoft to "bundle" their software with new Windows releases, often making it extremely difficult for less knowledgeable consumers to safely disentangle this hysteria-based software from installations of new operating programs without damaging those programs or rendering them virtually unusable. These techniques of "bundling" were most often connected in the "security" realm with corporations such as Norton and Symantec.
     AOL is still notorious amongst programmers for "bundling" unwanted software by paying software companies to virtually inextricably intertwine its unwanted software with already purchased products such that disentangling it, particularly from computer registries, proved a monumental task in which the slightest slip in hours long procedures by expert programmers could forever render the underlying already-purchased software useless. Leading one to wonder who indeed were the "good" guys and who the "bad". The United States Department of Justice Antitrust Division as well as Microsoft itself ended some of these problems by introducing free security software which in many cases is anyway better and free, such as Microsoft Security Essentials. Thousands of others are available free with consumer and editor ratings on sites such as CNET. 
     The Ninth Amendment welcomes back patient readers as well as new readers with this first post of the new year 2013. It is NOT the Ninth Amendment's intention to become a source of computer security alerts nor should readers rely on the Ninth Amendment for that purpose.
     As always the real news of 2013 will soon follow as Ninth Amendment editorial staff and global bureaus reconfigure for the new year. To date Ninth Amendment editors have identified many mostly ignored potentially very significant reports from the "mainstream" press including of North Korea's recent showcasing of functional drones reverse-engineered from, as predicted here, the CIA's own (non-existent) drones, with the notable addition of North Korea's maniacal giant "Flying Dinosaur" drone.
     Apparently United States national security agencies also somehow entirely missed North Korea's start-to-finish development of medium-range missiles capable of carrying WMD warheads until a test missile was successfully fired off on trajectory by North Korea's reportedly charismatic new leader lady-killer and apparent Elvis-style sunglasses aficionado Kim Jong II assumed to be in celebration of something like the New Year. It is not known to the Ninth Amendment log what year if any actually is being celebrated in North Korea.
