Thursday, December 31st, 2009

Nobody expects to become a household name overnight, but that’s exactly what happened to Amber Frey. [1]

The Scott Peterson trial has finally shaken loose a hero: Amber Frey, the mistress with the heart of gold. [2]

He’s filing a civil lawsuit against Amber Frey, who he says for the past four years has claimed he is her daughter’s father. [3]

Amber Frey is what the CIA and the KGB used to refer to as a “honey trap” -a temptress that is used to blackmail the enemy. [4]

With the case closed, Frey is everywhere this week promoting a book that is aimed squarely at the duped demographic: women who have been lied to by seductive, if not deadly, men. [5]

Amber Frey is married to a corrections officer, Bobby Hernandez, and runs a spa in Fresno. [1]

“Amber put her inner strength to the test, and that’s something Oprah likes,” says Carly Ubersox, spokeswoman for Harpo Productions. [5]

He claims he’s not only been the victim of deception, but also fraud, and he’s not only suing Amber Frey. [3]

But just a few weeks after Scott told Amber that he lost his wife, Amber says a friend of hers alerted her to Scott’s true identity. [6]

When Peterson became the prime suspect in Laci’s disappearance, Frey immediately contacted the authorities and went public about their affair. [1]

“I had received a phone call from a friend of mine, that he’d found an article about a Scott Peterson that he thought might be the Scott Peterson that I was seeing…but he couldn’t be 100 percent [sure] yet.” [6]

Frey’s sleuthing and court testimony helped convict Peterson, and now the Fresno, Calif., massage therapist is taking a much-deserved victory lap. [2]

Ava Frey, Amber Freys’ sister, who lives just a few blocks away from Scott Peterson in Modesto, is helping Private Investigator/quack, Bill Garcia look for Laci Peterson. [4]

Amber Frey, the former mistress of convicted wife-killer Scott Peterson, may lose her Clovis home after falling behind on mortgage payments. [7]

Witness describes how, for the next few weeks, Peterson flitted between Frey and his wife, Laci, who was eight months pregnant. [2]

full body scanners airports

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

The Netherlands has announced it will immediately begin using full body scanners for flights heading to the United States, saying that could have stopped the attempted Christmas Day airline bombing. [1]

The Netherlands said Wednesday it was installing the scanners at Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport, where security staff failed to detect explosives being taken aboard Northwest Airlines flight 253. [2]

The executive European Commission proposed last month to add body scanners to a list of security measures that can be used at airports in the 27-country bloc. [3]

“It’s the wave of the future,” said James Schear, the TSA security director at Baltimore-Washington International Airport, where two body scanners are in use at one checkpoint. [4]

The Transportation Security Administration wants to install more of the devices, known as whole-body imaging scanners, but the agency has met resistance from civil liberties groups, passengers and some members of Congress. [5]

We of course support advanced imaging technology, as we use it here,” said Homeland Security spokeswoman Amy Kudwa in Washington. [1]

PASSENGERS boarding planes at some American airports are being asked to pass through whole body scanners at security checkpoints, which penetrate their clothing. [6]

Germany will not participate in EU proposals for airports to use full-body scanner security checks, which have raised privacy issues, its interior ministry said Friday. [3]

The Transportation Security Administration recently started using body scans on randomly chosen airline passengers in Los Angeles, Baltimore, Denver, Albuquerque and New York’s Kennedy airport. [...] BALTIMORE ‘ Body-scanning machines that show images of people underneath their clothing are being installed in 10 of the nation’s busiest airports in one of the biggest public uses of security devices that reveal intimate body parts. [4]

BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany will not participate in EU proposals for airports to use full-body scanner security checks, which have raised privacy issues, its interior ministry said Friday. [7]

Only 19 U.S. airports have received sophisticated imaging machines that can detect explosives hidden in clothing. [5]

It may take slightly longer for airport staff to review the images produced and — given the level of detail, more passengers may find themselves subjected to follow-up security checks as a result. [2]

The lawmakers called for a detailed study of the technology before it is used. [7]

LAGOS (Reuters) - Nigeria will equip its international airports with full-body scanners next year after a 23-year-old Nigerian man tried to blow up a U.S. passenger plane on Christmas Day, an aviation official said on Wednesday. [8]
