The Colombian army sent a hidden message to hostages inside a pop song
Colonel Jose Espejo was a man with a problem. As the Colombian army’s communications expert watched the grainy video again, he saw kidnapped soldiers chained up inside barbed-wire pens in a hostage camp deep in the jungle, guarded by armed FARC guerillas. Some had been hostages for more than 10 years, and many suffered from a grim, flesh-eating disease caused by insect bites. It was 2010, and the straight-talking Espejo was close to retirement after 22 years of military service.

My Foursquare Check-In Saved Me From San Fran's Possibly Fraudulent Parking Ticket Scheme
I recently wrote an open letter to the San Francisco Metropolitan Transit Authority on what I believe to be a “scam” they’ve engaged in by operating with an F-graded BBB collection agency organization that issues collections notices, demanding money for parking citations from people who’ve never actually been to San Francisco.
