Chelsea Manning's full statement
I want to thank everybody who has supported me over the last three years. Throughout this long ordeal, your letters of support and encouragement have helped keep me strong. I am forever indebted to those who wrote to me, made a donation to my defense fund, or came to watch a portion of the trial. I would especially like to thank Courage to Resist and the Bradley Manning Support Network for their tireless efforts in raising awareness for my case and providing for my legal representation.
As I transition into this next phase of my life, I want everyone to know the real me. I am Chelsea Manning. I am a female. Given the way that I feel, and have felt since childhood, I want to begin hormone therapy as soon as possible. I hope that you will support me in this transition. I also request that, starting today, you refer to me by my new name and use the feminine pronoun (except in official mail to the confinement facility). I look forward to receiving letters from supporters and having the opportunity to write back.
Thank you,
Chelsea E. Manning

Ad Break: You're Never Alone With A Strand (1959)
Seem to recall a photo of Peter Gabriel when he left Genesis in Melody Maker adopting the lighting cigarette pose with the caption 'you're never alone with a band'
The Best of IceBridge Arctic '13 (NASA)
The views from the cockpit of NASA's P-3B aircraft on an Operation
IceBridge campaign are truly stunning. The mission doesn't travel to
both ends of the Earth for the scenery of course -- the airborne mission
is there to collect radar, laser altimetry, and other data on the
changing ice sheets, glaciers, and sea ice of the Arctic and Antarctic.
But for those of us who aren't polar pilots, here's a selection of some
of the best footage from the forward and nadir cameras mounted to the
aircraft taken during IceBridge's spring deployment over Greenland and
the Arctic Ocean
♪♫ bvdub - Strong Again (Teach Me To Feel)
A sample from the forthcoming bvdub album "born in toyko" out via n5MD, September 10th 2013.
This is also due imminently (but knowing Echospace...)
It has been nearly five years since Brock's highly acclaimed 'White Clouds Drift On And On' debuted on Echospace earning a plethora of critical acclaim including many coveted top albums of the year list from RA to The Wire. Brock returns in beautiful form with what he proclaims to be his most personal and self-defining moment in his fruitful musical career. This album however strikes on a very different chord from the last, rather than find contentment in repeating himself he has sculpted a unique sound slightly out of focus from his previous work, a sound one could only say is like drifting in and out of consciousness. A place where early LSD experiments reveal third dimensions of the mind and evoke emotions so powerful they haunt forever. Here we see Brock's true dedication to vision, maturity and growth, the reason why so many people have gravitated to his heart-tugging productions. On, 'Home' Van Wey paints a near three hour exploration so beautiful and hypnotic that the listener feels as if only moments passed by - a second to forever. This is a welcome return to form in the one place Brock refers to as 'Home' here on Echospace. If Burial were to meet Eno in the studio of a BBC radio workshop session with Tape masters sent to Steve Roach for further deconstruction this might be the unique result, residing somewhere in the ether

(Apologies Noddy & Jim!)
Is the document swap mentioned at The Guardian at all?
Mr. Miranda was in Berlin to deliver documents related to Mr. Greenwald’s investigation into government surveillance to Ms. Poitras, Mr. Greenwald said. Ms. Poitras, in turn, gave Mr. Miranda different documents to pass to Mr. Greenwald. Those documents, which were stored on encrypted thumb drives, were confiscated by airport security, Mr. Greenwald said. All of the documents came from the trove of materials provided to the two journalists by Mr. Snowden.
