Dragnet Shuts Boston; One Suspect Is Slain but Second Man Is on Loose

"The surviving suspect was identified as Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, 19, of Cambridge, Mass., a law enforcement official said."

So it is not Sunil Tripathi that the interwebs has led us to believe? Or there is still room for some more names and embarrassments?

What's shocking to me about this twisted story so far is the seeming brazenness of the suspects, robbing a 7/11, moving openly through several neighborhoods, and most crazily, one "got back into the S.U.V., turned it toward officers and 'put the pedal to the metal.' The car 'went right through the cops, broke right through and continued west.'”

No one submitted the story from the Boston Globe or the Boston Herald? It seems if one is going to follow a developing story via a newspaper site a local source may be a better choice...

Looking at this political story from a programming perspective... What software out there can help me accept as input millions of photographs, with timestamps, locations, angles and such, and generate as output a coherent time line of each individual in each photograph so we can identify the copycat bombers that will be occurring in the following years? Surly machine learning software could be made to find a person in one image from a different image based on analysis of the configuration and color value of the person's clothing alone.

It's George Orwellian, but it will be created one way or another. Is there some software that can help achieve this goal?
