The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Those Pesky EMails at IRS


For John, BLUFAs a minimum we should be hearing about letters of counseling in some permanent personnel files.  Nothing to see here; just move along.



The New York Times gives us an "even handed" view of the House Hearings on the IRS missing EMails, the ones that were on Federal Civil Servant Lois Lerner's computer, before they weren't. 
“Sitting here listening to this testimony, I don’t believe it,” Representative Paul D. Ryan, Republican of Wisconsin, told the commissioner, John Koskinen, at a hearing of the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee.:  “That’s your problem.:  No one believes you.”
And that is a problem.:  It will be more of a problem if the mainstream media doesn't believe the IRS Commissioner and the ultimate problem if the Democrats in the US Senate not only don't believe him, but also think it is a big deal.  Normally, they wouldn't think it is a big deal, but if both the mainstream media and Democrats back home think it is a big deal, so will the Senators

From Ed Morrissey we have "IRS commissioner:  You know, e-mail isn’t necessarily an “official record”; Update::  IRS Manual says it is".  From the blog post:

Regarding email as "official record", it would seem Section 1.10.3.2.3 of IRS Manual would destroy that argument
Destory it like a crashed hard drive.

Oh, and Reason Magazine says that "The IRS Had a Contract With an Email Backup Company".  Sonasoft.  A 2009 Tweet from Sonasoft:

If the IRS uses Sonasoft products to back up their servers why wouldn't you use them to protect your servers?

  Her hard drive crashed, as did those of several others.

Poor Sarah Palin, she gave the media her Yahoo account emails (which she used for government business at times) to the media then they open crowd source them.
