SoCalDem has done a statistical analysis... ...on several swing states, and EVERY STATE that has EVoting but no paper trails has an unexplained advantage for Bush of around +5% when comparing exit polls to actual results.

In EVERY STATE that has paper audit trails on their EVoting, the exit poll results match the actual results reported within the margin of error.

So, we have MATCHING RESULTS for exit polls vs. voting with audits

vs.

A 5% unexplained advantage for Bush without audits.

...IS "at war" with north korea. We've had a truce, but no legal technical end to the war since it first started. It's quite strange actually. The war was based on a UN decision. We have had sporadic "truce talks" as long as I can remember. The major shooting war stopped (more or less) once UN forces made it to the red chinese border and indications were good that they could continue the push. China used quite a lot of it's soldiers as "volunteers" to assist NK, and in the early stages of the war were fairly successful, almost routing the US and other UN forces.

It gets more complicated than that of course, interesting subject. I've always considered it to be the worlds major flashpoint for initiation of widespread nuclear warfare, as there is little in the way of conventional weapons we could bring to bear that would defeat north korea easily if any hostilities resumed large scale, they are just too well dug in and have so many armaments and the distances involved are so short that it would require multiples of nukes and bunker busters and whatnot to make a dent in what they have. It's not that they have just amazing modern technology, it's that they have just a huge amount of older technology that isn't vulnerable to any sophisticated jamming or other buck rogers high tech neutralization. They are diggers, build deep hardened bunkers and tunnels, and have been doing so for 50 years now non stop.

Here is a synopsis of the situation from a korean viewpoint

Actually, the plan is to include RFID chips in the road itself ,and in the tire. Once mass-produced to the level required, such devices are extremely inexpensive.

The obvious short term advantage of reading the signs is that they are already deployed all around.

When someone as prominent and as much an annoyance to the coporate capitalist power structure as Richard Stallman has a nearly fatal accident we SHOULD start asking if there is a conspiracy to murder him.

The free software movement is in the crosshairs. Why do you think software patents have become such an issue recently? Did SCO come up with the idea of its copyright attack on Linux on its own all of a sudden? Some investor immediately gave it the cash infusion it needed to persue the lawsuit, recall (BayStar etc.) Was it SCO, by itself, that got the De Toqueville Institute to issue an article questioning the originality of Linux? In fact a lot of "think tanks" have been piling on the free software movement.

Free software is a loose cannon, the normal mechanisms that keep sources of consumer products and innovation from stepping on the toes of governments and governments' interests don't work with free software.

How happy do you think the United States is that free software has given China and countries like it an operating system which is guaranteed free of any CIA / NSA backdoors?

For christs sakes, how fucking naive do you have to be, of course they are going to start killing leaders of the free software movement.

I hope RMS isn't himself so naive and starts taking precautions (for all the good that will do him if the CIA wants him dead).

Well couple it with the paper ballot trail Arney signed today, and California, that hippie liberal, commie state has put a major dent into the problems associated with electronic touchscreen voting. I was holding out to use the new machines, and even though I am registered as a permanent absentee ballot voter, I might change that now that there's a good reason to actually encourage other states to use the systems.

If we really want to stop crime, we need to put cameras where we all know the serious crime takes place.

That is the office buildings of public officials. We also need to tap their (OUR taxpayer dollar paid for) phones. Over night the dirty dealing and back rubbing would stop. No more BJ's in the oval office. We could even link the cameras in air traffic controllers to watch as they ignore planes that switch off there transponders and deviate from course for 20-30 minutes before they crash into the WTC. Hey, but what's with letting three or four planes all go AWOL. Not like George doesn't support going AWOL. (and he cares enough about our troops, not to attend even one funeral.)

To bad they have this thing about letting the American public know the truth about WMD's. That would have been neat to see that briefing for replay. The ability to trace this info to the source (or lack thereof) and actually hold them accountable for the 1,000 US soldiers that have died. These really are the people that need the cameras put on them because the fate of all our live are held in their hands. How long will it be before the world decides that Americans are the real threat to life and need to be controlled. If the American people won't hold elected official accountable, then somebody will have to.

What ever became of the security tapes around the Oklahoma City Federal building. These tapes hold the smoking gun of Timothy McVeigh in the last moments before the bomb blew. But they were never released due to national security.

Our government has been running amuck. We need to pull out the magnifying glass and put the cameras on them that can't be turned off. These cameras should be streamed on the net and recorded for later viewing. We also need to remove our public officials right to privacy anywhere they go so they can't make deals 'out of the office'. Just like a teenager that gets into drugs, they will loose any right to privacy, they have, because we know they can't be trusted. There has been to much trust in this country of our elected officials for way to long.

Here is a break down of just some of the absentee votes that were, but should not have been counted for Bush in Florida 2000... (Source: democrats.com)

• Absentee ballots that could not be read by voting machines, but were illegally "duplicated" by county election officials: 10,000 (60% Bush?)
• Absentee ballots cast in Seminole and Martin counties by Republican voters following the criminal alteration of defective ballot applications by Republican operatives: 5,000 (99% Bush)
• Overseas military ballots that were not legal, but were counted because of massive pressure from the Bush campaign: 680 (71% Bush)

Here is a CNN article on the Seminole county absentee ballot application form alterations. The Republican operatives were allowed to alter incorrectly filled-out/printed applications (by Reps), but Democrat operatives were not allowed to do the same to applications by Democrats.

If your feeling rich you can purchase this July 2001 NYT article entitled "EXAMINING THE VOTE; How Bush Took Florida: Mining the Overseas Absentee Vote" by D Barstow and Don Van Natta.

Then there is this nice and very recent example of (gasp) Republican cheating with absentee ballots in (gasp) Florida: A fine Greg Palast article.

My question is that does such a hash function live up to Shamir's and Rivest's claims?

You'd be much better off asking a cryptography newsgroup/forum/mailing list than me -- I'm not a cryptographer. Use of prime factorization in hash generation in an earlier post of mine was an idea that I just pulled out of the air without no thought or references. It was not intended to be a serious suggestion -- I simply needed an example of a simple, obvious one-way operation that could be done using a processor.

I would have provided links, but for Slashdot's 160 character limitation.

Obviously, as has been pointed out by many, the Yugoslavia tournament dates way back to before the War on Terror -- on the other hand, it is only the post-9/11 extreme nationalism in the United States that would allow a country to have extradited and prosecute an elderly man who has been on the run for many years for playing a *chess game*, especially a man who was once lauded as a pillar against the "evil" Soviet Union.

The fact that the man is horribly disillusioned with the United States seems quite reasonable; he wanted to play chess, and was turned into a political tool, had his name illegally commercialized, was hunted by US agents, and had to live in exile due to playing a chess game. It seems quite reasonable to dislike a country that has done something like this to you.

It isn't a joke. Here is an article about it.

Canada`s oil reserves are the second largest in the world, only beaten by Saudi Arabia. (source).

May I add I.G. Farben to that list.

Much has been made of the evil of monopolies on Slashdot (from Microsoft dominating the desktop to Apple regulating music formats).

The Federal Reserve is a private corporation operated and owned by private banks and given special monopoly existence by congress back on Christmas Eve in 1913. This is a very scary monopoly that has (perhaps unconstitutionally) usurped Congress's power to coin, issue, and regulate the American money supply.

While I won't attempt to proffer all of the observations (probably labeled as "tinfoil hat theories" because neither political party wants to call them into question) I will point out a very human readable web page that highlights some of these issues in a phone call to the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.

I realize that the Internet is a public network and that the Fed has every right to switch its internals over to using it. But it will likely cause two bits of controversy.

First, they are a private corporation so if the receive a private set of Class A IP addresses or other special treats it will expose some flaws in the public vs. private issues of control of the internet. (This is probably of more interest to slashdotters.)

Second, The Fed may be exposing tremendous auditability and accounting problems that don't exist on the private network. While their books and procedures are publicly audited, they have simply "lost" money (both physical and transactional). The paranoid would suspect that perhaps they've been inspired by the Diebold voting systems which can apparently cause votes to simply come and go in an unaccountable manner. The less paranoid should still see that this change will need a great deal more publicly auditable security to keep robber barrons from simply coming up with a new means of screwing over those of us who rely on cash & credit.

I can understand the need to migrate from old proprietary technolgies to new ones, but this migration should be watched VERY closely and where possible should be opened up for further audit and regulation.

A card with "RFID's" is the least you can expect from a country where the president officially sanctioned a memorial to the Waffen SS. (Hitler's elite troops.)

Think with your brain and don't swallow the propaganda fed to you.

To quote that second article:

At the CIA, it happens often enough to have a code name: Blowback. Simply defined, this is the term that describes an agent, an operative or an operation that has turned on its creators.

Nope. Open source is still the best way to go, along with open government. When you let people hide "stuff", and when it's connected to massive political power and heaps 0 money, that's when crimes occur. The best bet is openness, bar none. It is not perfect, but it's the best design yet.

Hence, candidate -- and media critic -- Howard Dean reacted with humor Tuesday in Milwaukee as journalists presented him with a long-sleeve white T-shirt. It carried the motto "Establishment Media" in front, and a slogan swiped from Dean in the back: "We Have the Power, Dean Press Corps 2004."

On December 1, 2003, Howard Dean was ahead by twenty points in the polls when he appeared on Hardball with Chris Matthews and said, "We're going to break up the giant media enterprises." This pronouncement went far beyond the governor's previous public musings about possibly re-regulating the communications industry, and amounted to a declaration of war on the corporations that administer the flow of information in the United States.

It was an extraordinarily noble and dangerous thing to do: when he advocated a truly free press, Dr. Dean was provoking the corrupt media conglomerates that control what most Americans see and hear and read, and thereby control what most Americans think.

I imagine one of the possible solutions to this problem would be finding out who has been killing a number of these scientists lately. The Mystery Of The Dead Scientists: Coincidence Or Conspiracy?

Starting with your first paragraph: do you seriously not care that he was building a cannon for saddam hussein, a man who has used chemical weapons against his own citizens, launched wars at the drop of a hat and sworn to eliminate several of his neighbors?

The CIA has said that Saddam didn't gas the Kurds. It was done with blood agent chemicals (cyanide-based gas) that he didn't have. It was probably the Iranians.

Swearing to eliminate your neighbors happens all the friggin' time. How often do people whine about Canucks and the French? Even on something as technical and intelligent as slashdot, people are always saying crap like that. That's certainly helping our reputation world-wide.

Hell, the US is trying to overthrow the Venezuala government, and they're pretty much our neighbor. Cuba is 90 miles away from Florida and we aren't inviting them over for milk and cookies. And the US Army gave citizens, servicemen, and prisoners crap like malaria & syphilis, and sprayed them with mustard gas and biological weapons (thinking of San Francisco here) without telling them. So basically, your first sentence might as well be applied to the Good Ol' USA. The chemical agents American soldiers were exposed to in the first Gulf War were made in the USA.

The real moral is, don't do weapons research. Although I think that'll be mighty hard to apply world-wide. Maybe if we all agree to just disagree the world will be a better place. And weasels will shoot out of my ass.

It is well known that a very high voltage potential exists between the earth and the ionosphere. Ionosphere electrical charge is believed it to be at least 10 million volts with respect to the earth ground.

Next, imagine a cable 62,000 miles long. A CONDUCTIVE cable that is. Imagine the electrical arc as cable construction reaches down toward earth. The 10 million volts will have a tremendous current from millions of square miles of ionosphere. With millions of amps of peak current and power levels in billions of watts, it will create quite a fireworks display. The inherently CONDUCTING carbon nanotube cable will act as a shorting wire carrying billions of watts of power. The current will continue to flow between the earth and the ionosphere, until both are at the same potential. But this is just the beginning of big trouble.

A good example of what will happen has already been proven on a space shuttle mission. On mission STS-75 [3], 3,500 volts at .48 Amps was measured when a tethered satellite was lowered about 12 miles. The satellite was lost when the aluminized tether snapped. It was later determined that the Kevlar tether broke, from burning through where it contacted the payload bay deployment tower. Remember this was a cable just 12 miles long, yet it developed 1,680 watts of power. Now imagine how much power a cable 62,000 MILES LONG will develop, connected between ground and the charged ionosphere of the entire planet.

The current with the ionosphere's 10 million volts will almost certainly vaporize the cable. But that would be a blessing, because of the repercussions of this cable.

WHO NEEDS THE IONOSPHERE ?

My blog exists for one simple reason: websites don't hyperlink.

I started it two years ago because rense.com had interesting stories, about half of which are verifiable (i.e. about 80% of the non-UFO stories). The problem is it took quite a bit of time for me to research Rense's stories to figure out which ones were true. And to not let that go to waste, I started dumping my results into a blog -- all with hyperlinks to either mainstream news sites or to "original" web documents from government, scholastic, or non-profit organization websites.

In the meantime, providing such links became de rigueur for the myriad of blogs that have popped up over the past two years -- in order to provide credibility. The result is that Rense.com now provides hyperlinks a lot more frequently now due to the new competition.

Rense.com has changed its ways, but newspaper sites still have not yet clued into the mystery of Tim Berners-Lee. Newspaper websites currently just duplicate the newsprint onto the computer screen. They refer to pending legislation without linking to the legislation. They refer to charters, press releases, products, budgets, etc. without linking to them. Or, sure, some have some newspapaper site have software that automatically goes through and creates links for popular keywords such as company names and people's names, but that's about it. Blogs, such as mine, provide deep links directly to the crucial material at hand, so that readers can assess the original material for themselves.

Sites like wired.com and salon.com are a bit more with it. Sites run by "Old Print" are going to have to adapt or die.

When we start seeing mainstream popular news sites with deep links to relevant material -- i.e. when newspapers embrace the web -- then maybe I can retire my website.

I always wondered how they got people to sell their souls. . .

I mean, the pilots who flew for Air America fully knowing that they were transporting drugs for the CIA. --Or who fly the chemtrail planes. And those guys who designed Carnivore. And Echelon. And the bio-chemists who came up with SARS. (Don't kid yourself.) --Or who designed any number of those fancy weapons, drugs and what-have-you which the Secret Government loves so dearly.

I ask myself, "Who would be so daft? Who in their right mind would join forces with the Dark Side?"

Then I take one look at the responses to this story and remember why it's good to have planet-wide cleansings periodically.

This DARPA program exists for one reason alone; to find those prodigy geniuses (who have, by deliberate design, been mis-loved and abused by society for being clever so that they'll be more willing to sell out their fellow humans), and then lure them down the one-way path of secret military-industrial employment.

I know guys who are wired Rainman smart, who really can card count eight decks at the blackjack table without even trying. Math and physics are like Lego. --I tell people about some of the toys the military had available ten years ago and I am told that I am crazy despite my sources. Fine. Go build your robots for the local recruitment agency. If you're smart enough, you'll learn first hand about the halls of power. When you're noticed, you're in and you don't get out again.

How many 'accidental' deaths of bio-chemists since 9-11? Is it over 40 yet? (Yes) --Numerous of which, like Dr. David Kelly, who were working on genetic-specific weapons for the Isreali war machine. Interesting, no?

There very well might have been an ancient civilization that wiped itself out with nukes.

There's a lot of writing within one of the Indian (Hindu?) holy books that tells of gods flying in air ships, firing thunder and other such terrifying weapons at each other. Sorry, I can't find anything in my bookmarks, or recall anything specific. However, there is evidence that there were nukes back then in india: a city was found irradiated and destroyed from 8,000 years ago.

Quite fascinating, as it totally destroys our conceptions of the past. If you ask me, we're quite pompous to assume that we're evolving to be more intelligent as time goes forward, just because we don't see evidence of the ancients being as advanced as we are (ie, silicon-based electronics and other machinery). That means little - they could have been more advanced spiritually, temporally, with medicine, or any other number of things. There is evidence that ancients accomplished many great, amazing scientific and engineering feats, most of which we have little if no explanation for (the Pyrimids, some artifacts found in China, many various ruins, Stonehenge, etc.)

Oh boo hoo! There are plenty of us who don't think that those guys are unlawful combatants. Hell, if the Bush administration heard half of the things I say about them on a regular basis among my group of friends I'd probably be labeled an "unlawful combatant". It would make you happy to see anyone who doesn't fit in with your warped view of the world thrown away in jail with no recourse. However, you are wrong. We will have our recourse. It will either happen in November, or it will happen later in a much more difficult way. We won't all be dragged into your nightmare neocon view of the world without a serious fight.

More to the point: there is no such thing as "brainwashing". We simply perceive the facts as they are delivered to us, and we make our own judgments based on our own personal values and reasons.

Tada! You have described "brainwashing" as the term applies to the public at large. Control the delivery of "facts" to limit a group's perception and let them "freely" make up their own mind.

For example - even after the invasion, 70% of Americans believed that Sadam had something to do with the 9/11 terrorists. If that ain't mass-brainwashing, I don't know what is.

When the story broke about the bomb going off that was hooked up to a sarin gas shell (Sarin is a nerve agent, a weapon of mass destruction), for that day and the next, you could find no news story on CNN.com about it. Not one. It was covered on FOX News and MSNBC's websites. Nothing on cnn.com. On the third day, I did manage to find an article that was discussing something else about the war, and at the bottom it mentioned the sarin bomb found.

I have seen several stories about WMD being found in Iraq since the war began (or ended if you like sticking your head in the ground)and so far not one has turned out to be actual WMD. Still these stories played prominantly on the 24 hour news cycle. Invariably, several days later, the true identitiy of the "WMD" is found and oubviously not as widely publicized, especially on fox. Ever since the WMD mobile lab with canvas sides (that sounds like a sterile environment) which was paraded around as "proof" of WMD, I have taken every such story with a large grain of salt. Especially when it comes from fox. WOLF!

I can't say for sure that this "sarin" is not real, but I can say that so far 100% of the WMD news stories have been fabrications by either the government or the "news" media.

SIV seems harmless to chimps, but HIV seems harmless to people until they come down with AIDS. And if SIV never proceeds to an AIDS like condition in chimpanzees we do not know whether it was the chimps that adapted to the SIV, or the SIV that became less virulent to be able to spread better in chimps. I for one wouldn't bet on a not very virulent disease like HIV having any incentive to provide many more than 10 or at most 20 symptom free years in the name of spreading better, and I wouldn't expect the evolution from a moderately good spreader ( 10 years symptom free ) to a very good spreader ( 20 years symptom free ) to happen quickly.

If it was not the virus that evolved, but the chimps, then I would not neccessarily expect humans to have the genetic diversity to field an effective defense. Then again, a very small number of humans are natually immune to it ( search for "Naturally immune to HIV" in quotes using google to find it mentioned but not featured in various articles ).

One might assume HIV is anologous to Syphilus ( SIV evolved in chimps to become less virulent instead of chimps evolving to tolerate it ) but that would be baseless. There are people who have been multiple strains of HIV, and reinfection with syphilis after cure with antibiotics is possible.

Infection with one strain does not confer immunity to all strains ( or even the original strain ). This means that for all intents and purposes, each strain is a seperate disease not in competition with the other strains any more than say, HIV and Syphilis are in competition with each other or the common cold.

More virulent strains of Siphilis died out on their own because visible sores disgusted potential sex partners and probably caused pain for the infected genitals that made sex too painful to engage in. They did not die out because of competitive pressure from less virulent syphilis strains.

There are probably a panoply of Siphilis strains that are adapted to produce more or less infectious sores with strains that produce more sores winning out by better spreading where antibiotics are not available and sores don't cause the host to obtain an immediate antibiotic cure. Where antibiotics are available, almost invisible cases that spread less easily win out, living under the radar of their infected hosts for long periods of time.

Therefore the existance of a less virulent strain of HIV that doesn't cause AIDS, therefore doesn't neccessarily mean the extinction of the more virulent strains.

But the presence of the less virulent phage-infected HIV will make it's hosts immune to non-phage infected strains of HIV, since the presence of the phage will mean any newly aquired strains are immediately infected so phage infected strains WILL be in competition with phage free strains, and so will act as a vaccine that may wipe out HIV sans phage like smallpox.

What evolutionary pressures will the new HIV+phage strain face? Will a person infected with HIV+phage be able to transmit the disease as easily as a person infected with only HIV was able to? Will there be pressure to develop other forms of virulency to increase transmission rate? Maybe the phage, which now requires HIV to survive will lose it's ability to prevent AIDS.

The HIV+phage strain will not face some of the barriers to spreading that HIV alone faced. A person infected with 'harmless' HIV+phage would not be as careful about spreading it as they would be about spreading HIV. People won't be as careful about not getting 'harmless' HIV+phage as they were about not getting HIV alone.

"My guess is that when you can carry 24,000 gallons (90000L) of water, you don't have to refill very often."

Yeah, but how long does it take to refill it?

And wouldn't the forest service object because it's too much water?

I mean they objected to the Russian planes coz:
"The plane is "too costly and lacks ability to make downhill drops, a necessary maneuver in fighting fires in the mountains. It actually drops too much water."

The russian planes carry 11,000 gallons of water AND they have a proven track record in fire fighting, unlike the 747 "solution" which seems to be a kludge.

This "11,000-gallon tanker plane pours 'too much water,'". I guess 24,000 gallons (90000L) is not too much though...

I love the one with Mary, where you can see the dude and his dog looking up at something.

You know, all those religious paintings, whilst fascinating are really open to wide interpretation. Even the one with the dog, which is really compelling.

What is far more interesting to me are the written accounts like the one from the time of the Roman empire, describing "At sunset, a burning shield passed over the sky at Rome. It came sparkling from the west and passed over to the east." an ancient UFO report, and a UFO report in every way that counts!

The one from From Conrad Wolfhart, Lycothenes could be Aurora Borealis, especially since its Scotland (very northern) but that doesnt explain the ship part, and also, people at that time knew what the Aurora Borealis looked like, and would have been able to eliminate that as a possibility, which would have prompted the writing of this report as a special event. Thinking and typing out loud :]

You of course, must be reading Nuforc for the latest reports; some really strong and spectacular ones in there!

Datum 2. If you watch politics for enough decades, you will *notice* it doesn't really matter which R or D is in the white house, or controls congress, they play good cop/ bad cop back and forth with their various constituencies, but you always get more or less the same results, more whopper government, more bogus laws, more freedoms stripped, higher taxes, more debt,more reallystrange foreign wars that you find out years later were based on lies and were scam wars,and more destruction of the backbone of the US, the productive middle class. Again, pretty obvious. When people say they voted for their idea of the lesser of two evils, they are admitting to being scared, tricked, or just didn't really care enough to NOT vote for one of those evils. Pitiful really. they didn't want to "waste their vote", even though the only 'wasted' vote is one not cast.

Of course, none of that matters now because...

#3 the elections are now officially hijacked, what little remnants of honest voting used to exist are now gone, you'll "elect" who THEY want to be in there, and THOSE guys get told what to do from international very large power and money interests. We were WARNED this would happen, and we ignored it.

#4 the only rational plan is something completely & radically different from "politics as we know it", because the old ways of doing things WILL GIVE YOU THE SAME OLD WAYS. IT ALWAYS HAPPENS. It CAN'T give you anything BUT that, it's basic math. NOTHING will change, you will always get the same results if you copy what you just did.

See the video. Check out Wired.

The video looks pretty convincing, and according to AP and Reuters, the Mexican military is standing behind the story.

The detailed information is at Rense.

The interesting thing is that the Mexican plane was a drug interdiction aircraft with advanced radar and forward-looking infrared. It was designed precisely for the task of finding, intercepting and identifying unidentified aircraft, and it sounds like the data was handled in a way that would meet legal evidentiary standards (for obvious reasons: it was designed to convict drug smugglers).

Maybe the Vatican missed a fourth option: they're already here.

Not all optical media is vulnerable. The rewritable variants (RW) use metallic materials that change the phase of the light, rather than light-sensitive dyes.

Rewriteable CDs and DVDs, as opposed to write-once discs, should not be used for long-term storage because they contain a heat-sensitive layer that decays much faster than the metal layers of other discs.

China already has missle technology capable of launching various payloads* from the mainland to Taiwan: so what missles are you referring to exactly that they are "developing" of which they don't yet have? It says on that page that China can also launch missiles that can hit mainland United States.
