U.S.: We declare this Declaration of Independence to have killer timing

British-discovered Declaration of Independence
  • This early version of the Declaration of Independence was discovered a few months ago and verified conveniently just before the 4th of July. Great job on that whole timing thing, National Archives! source

U.S.: Someone just stole the Clinton administration in hard drive form

  • It wasn’t in such a secure location after all. The National Archives lost a hard drive with a massive amount of information dating back to the Clinton administration – sensitive data, social security numbers, you name it. The one-terabyte drive holds enough sensitive info that someone should be sweating over it. But apparently nobody was; it was in a server room that allowed access to both people with clearance and (due to the fact that the door was always open because it got hot in there) support staff passing by. So, if you want to compromise our national security … become a janitor. source
