Russell Crowe UFO Video Leaves Twitter Fans Baffled
Russel Crowe can be scheduled to play Superman’s father, Jor-El, inside the upcoming Superman movie reboot Man of Steel, but it surely wasn’t a flying Kryptonian that Crowe spotted outside his Sydney offices this week.
The actor posted a YouTube video to his Twitter account this week, showing what he claims in a real UFO. Crowe stated that he and a chum organize a Cannon 5D outside his office in Sydney to capture images of fruit bats “rising from Botanic Gardens. Instead, three photos taken over 4.5 seconds show something brightly lit passing over the scenery right away.

UFO Time Lapse Photos Outside RC’s Woolloomooloo Office (THESE ARE REAL!): http://t.co/BhTyoyBKql via @youtube
Crowe is technically accurate in that the item within the photos is unidentified and looks to be flying. However, dressing the video up with sinister music and peculiar editing to imply an alien presence signifies that the actor is only trolling his Twitter followers.

i’ll grant you on the time the music wasn’t playing, also, yes, we now have pushed in at the frame..here is 3 photo’s so as, nothing added
The stunt has gained Crowe some attention on Twitter, though. The star has retweeted various stories about his video and has replied to several fan theories together with his own explanations. He even showed that he’s in at the joke by retweeting what’s clearly the very best reason behind the phenomenon:

‘Paul Bearer’ Dies; Wrestling Star Was 58
Paul Bearer, born as William Moody, has died on the age of 58. Though the reason for Bearer’s death is unknown, TMZ is reporting that he had suffered from illnesses concerning his obesity and gallbladder for years.
Bearer made a reputation for himself in WWE (then WWF) wrestling because the manager of The Undertaker, and infrequently Undertaker’s “brother,” Kane, in the course of the 90s and early 00s. His appearances were accompanied by macabre spectacle, often with coffins, gravestones, his trademark urn, or other death-related props.
The WWE has issued a press release expressing its condolences:
WWE is saddened to benefit of the passing of William Moody, aka Paul Bearer. Moody made his WWE debut in 1991 because the manager of The Undertaker and went directly to become a memorable a part of WWE over the process the subsequent twenty years.
Our deepest condolences exit to Moody’s family, friends and fans.
Before joining the WWE, Bearer wrestled on this planet Class Champion Wrestling (WCCW). Bearer had also earned some extent in mortuary science, in addition to certification as a funeral director, within the early 80s.
Texas Legislature Introduces Bills To Curtail Warrantless Smartphone Tracking
Did you realize that the government can request your smartphone location data with no warrant It happens generally, but there’s not been much progress made inside the way of legislation curtailing this actual practice. One state has had enough, however, and it intends to place a stop to it.
Slate reports that both the Texas state Senate and House have introduced bills that will amend the Texas code of criminal procedure to prevent what it feels is the warrantless surveillance of its citizens. Both bills will require law enforcement to acquire a warrant before requesting location data from any cellular carrier.
In even better news, the bills will require any and all carriers that operate inside the state to provide annual transparency reports. These reports will detail the collection of surveillance requests made, and tell citizens which agencies requested the info. For now, we only know the complete collection of data requests made so a catalogue of the agencies making the requests will be valuable.
Under the proposed bills, the govt wouldn’t be capable of keep court orders for surveillance hidden either. The court would only have 180 days of secrecy before being forced to unseal the order and make it available to the general public.
Some may well be concerned over the proposed bills impact on law enforcement, but there are some exemptions in place to maintain serious investigations under wraps. For starters, law enforcement can still get a court authorized surveillance order and not using a warrant if the placement is deemed exceptional. The court order may even remain under wraps if it being made public would hurt the investigation.
There are similar bills being proposed in Washington, reminiscent of Al Franken’s Location Privacy Protection Act of 2012, that might require law enforcement to procure a warrant when seeking smartphone location data. Unfortunately, the bill died with the old Congress on the end of last year, but Franken will certainly bring it up again. Even then, it has little chance to pass as too many in Washington feel that the purposes of law enforcement to trample for your Fourth Amendment rights take priority over your individual privacy.
That being said, the states are the subsequent battleground for this significant issue. You could expect some opposition to expose up, however the Texas legislature has a track record of defying the folk in Washington. We’d even see some serious fireworks if the bills progress far enough.
