I'm fortunate enough to know how it feels to not want to leave my bed yet cursed to be reminded of when I can't
Alan Mathison Turing (1912 — 1954) was a mathematician and computer scientist, remembered for his revolutionary work in developing the world’s first computer, and his crucial role in breaking the ENIGMA code during World War Two. He continues to be regarded as one of the greatest scientists of the 20th century.
This selection of articles celebrates Turing’s lifetime achievements, looks at some of the biggest achievements in computer science, discusses issues of cryptography and computability, and includes some of Turing’s own original work.

apparently the mexican congress just approved a reform plan which will allow authorities to stop any kind of public protest out in the streets. claiming it is the only way to protect the safety and well being of the citizens who do not participate in such events. even though it directly interferes with our constitutional rights. please spread this. i haven’t seen this on any national news yet and only a few newspapers have briefly talked about it.
do you have any morel inks about what's happening in mexico? im part of a club at my school where we focus on international affairs and problems and id like to present something about it but i feel like i dont know enough yet
yes absolutely
What is happening in Mexico?
How it began
On September 26, students our age (~19-22) were attacked by the local police and gangs in Iguala, Guerrero in Mexico. They were studying to become teachers at Escuela Normal Rural de Ayotzinapa. I have read many articles about how the students were in the town to ask for money to help pay tuition, to protest discrimination of rural school teachers, to travel to commemorate another student massacre of 1968, etc., so I am unsure of what is what here. But the students were on the buses and police blocked their way to get the students out. When they did, they opened fire on the students at once. Some students threw rocks back in self-defense, but the students were unarmed. Six people died and 17 were injured. Three students died, a taxi driver, a woman in a taxi, and a football player that was just 15 years old (x). The injured were taken away by an ambulance, local journalists came, etc but it was not over as more men came in plain clothes and rifles (x). These men are apart of Guerreros Unidos and work for the Beltran Leyva cartel. The students were forced into police vans and have since disappeared. 43 students are missing.
Some of the students escaped by hiding in nearby houses. One terrified student tried running away, but he was found later yet with his eyes gouged out and his face completely sliced away to the bone. A YOUNG MAN only 19 years old suffered through this. (As a warning, be aware that there are photos online and that while searching deep through articles and tags, they are present.) A survivor of the attack says this is “symbol of the cartel assassins” (x).
22 local policemen have been detained for suspicion of working with Guerreros Unidos. This is how authorities were then tipped on what has happened to some students. (x) (x)
The Mass Graves
~ More than a week later, on Saturday, authorities found mass graves nearby that has 28 burned remains with the tips (x). We fear that this may be some of the students. We won’t have DNA analysis to confirm anything for another two weeks, if not longer.
MORE mass graves were found yesterday, but it is still unknown about how many remains these graves have (x).
UPDATE: Not all bodies in the graves belong to the students. (x) (x)
UPDATE: Around the beginning of November, arrested gang members claimed that after the students were handed over to them from the police, they killed and burned the students. Their remains were tossed into a river. A few of the alleged remains are currently being tested (x).
Keep in mind that the CITY MAYOR AND HIS WIFE are on the RUN. No one knows where they are.
We still don’t understand the reason behind this violence. Why kidnap and kill these young men? There are several explanations online, but how do you explain something like this? One story is that the mayer’s wife was giving a speech that day and did not want to be disrupted by the students. Keep in mind that the wife is the head of the city’s family welfare department and also has family connections to cartels (x). There are other alternatives online, but I don’t know. I just don’t.
UPDATE: The mayor and his wife have been found and arrested (x).
You cannot be silent about what is happening in Mexico
You can’t. You just can’t. Social media has a big impact and this story has to spread. In the last 24 hours I have seen an incredible boost in coverage about Ayotzinapa.
On Wednesday, thousands protested the disappearance of the students in Mexico.
UPDATE: ~ November 9, protests become more violent after the Mexican government suggests the students were already killed (x). The presidential palace was set afire.
Amounting pressure is being put on the Mexican government to find the missing students. There is also added outrage and demand ‘to punish politicians linked to organized crime’. It is no shock when considering the police corruption and brutality in Mexico. As Mexico bleeds, we all bleed.
Americans cannot ignore the violence of drug cartels and place it as just a problem in Mexico. There is too much innocent bloodshed. And because BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of dollars are collected in the United States by Mexican drug cartels, it is a shared responsibility (x). CHILDREN ARE DYING. Do not skim over these articles, do not just read them and do nothing, you have to act and spread the information. Do not be silent. Please, please, please help and pay attention.

Yet another reason to not stop talking about Ferguson, and more importantly, what’s really going on in Ferguson:
Fox News has honed in on Mike Brown’s step father as its next target, demanding his arrest for inciting riots. They are “reporting” that he said Burn the fuck down, and that apparently means he is responsible for any incurred damage… even though there is plenty of proof that it’s police that have been setting things ablaze.
