Your name will immediately be removed from our list with our sincere apology for the intrusion. * * * P.A.W.S. * * * People Across the World Succeeding * * * FREE TO JOIN!! We Help You Build Your Matrix!!!!! How about a group of people joining together to recruit and market. A group determined to make money. A group where no one is at the advantage. And no one is at a disadvantage. Everyone pays the same and earns the same. This is one of the most compelling business opportunities you will find on the internet today. 97% of all MLM'ers fail to reach their financial goal. They never earn the kind of money they intended to when they got into their business. More often they lose money because the average person only sponsors 2.5 people. They end up spending more than they make and the only ones who make money are those who join at the top. We feel we have found a way to change that. People helping people is our philosophy. We heard and we created the PAWS Association!! If you are a caring, individual and have a desire to help others by also helping yourself, please email us with "more info" in the subject line and your email address in the body.

Pauline Hanson deceived - Toyota need to know
by Global Web Builders 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Dear One Nation supporter in NSW It is with great sadness that I have to alert you, yet again, to the unethical behaviour of Channel 9's 60 MINUTES programme. This follows the programme "A CALL TO ARMS" on 7th June in which they tried, without foundation, to link One Nation to "US extremist militia" just days before the state election. See: http://www.gwb.com.au/60.html Last night a segment on 60 MINUTES featured One Nation and an extensive interview between Paul Lyneham and Pauline Hanson. Her appearance made a liar of her as she is on the record as saying that she would not again be interviewed by 60 MINUTES. Pauline Hanson told me this morning, QUOTE: "There was no mention about my interview with Paul Lyneham being for 60 Minutes. The programme approached me a couple of weeks ago and I turned them down. I feel deceived by 60 Minutes." "I was shocked when I saw my interview with Lyneham appearing on Sixty Minutes last night. 60 Minutes know that I do not want to appear on their programme." END QUOTE. This behaviour cannot be helpful to the excellent reputation of their major sponsor Toyota. You may contact them at toyota(a)spike.com.au Please take a moment to tell them how you feel about these issues. GWB Scott Balson

Twofish soruce code outside the U.S.
by Bruce Schneier 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

It's time to play the dumb export control game. I have to take steps to prevent non-US and non-Canadian persons from downloading the Twofish source. However, if someone outside the US manages to get their hands on the Twofish source from my website and puts it up on their website, please let me know. I would like very much to link to it, so others can get the Twofish code. Thanks, Bruce ********************************************************************** Bruce Schneier, President, Counterpane Systems Phone: 612-823-1098 101 E Minnehaha Parkway, Minneapolis, MN 55419 Fax: 612-823-1590 http://www.counterpane.com

Digital Frontiers Newsletter #2 - Correction
by info＠digfrontiers.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Digital Frontiers Newsletter #2 ------------------------------- Thank you for your interest in Digital Frontiers web optimization products. This email is to inform you of some recent changes to our product lineup. If you don't want to receive future mailings, our apologies -- please reply to info(a)digfrontiers.com. We apologize if you have received more than one copy of this newsletter - we're trying to improve our list management software, but are still working out the kinks. *** 10% Off on all HVS Products! *** ------------------------------------ In a blatant ploy to get you off the golf course/beach and back in front of your computer optimizing your web graphics (just kidding), we're offering a 10% discount across our entire product line until July 15. There's never been a better time to purchase the award-winning HVS series. *** HVS Animator Version 1.03 *** --------------------------------- Version 1.03 of HVS Animator has just been released for Macintosh. This new version includes the ability to set exact loop counts. We expect the Windows version to be available within a few days. For your free download please visit our website at http://www.digfrontiers.com. *** NEW! HVS ColorGIF 2.0/HVS Animator Pro Bundle *** ----------------------------------------------------- HVS Animator Pro, the GIF animation editor/optimizer that contains the same size-squeezing technology as HVS GIFCruncher, can now be purchased with HVS ColorGIF 2.0 for only $145. Also, The HVS Toolkit Pro, which includes HVS ColorGIF 2.0, HVS JPEG, and HVS Animator Pro, is available for only $208. If you already own HVS ColorGIF 2.0, if you register you can upgrade to HVS Animator Pro for $49. Both can be purchased via our secure commerce server at: http://www.digfrontiers.com/purchase.html *** Reviews *** --------------- In the June issue of PC Graphics & Video, HVS optimization stacks up quite favorably against higher-profile (and more expensive) offerings from Adobe, Macromedia, and others. Take a look. By the way - they misprinted the price at $599 for our Toolkit Pro - its actually $208! Andy King, a leading industry analyst and Managing Editor of Mecklermedia's webreference.com, looks at HVS ColorGIF 2.0 in a detailed article on color reduction. Go to http://www.webreference.com/dev/graphics/reduce.html. *** HVS GIFCruncher Update *** ------------------------------ The response to HVS GIFCruncher, our free GIF optimization service, has been overwhelming. The reports we're getting indicate that GIFCruncher users are thrilled with the results. We have had enough load that the current server is getting bogged down at times. So we're moving HVS GIFCruncher to a fast new server - we expect to be online by late June. If you haven't tried GIFCruncher yet, give it a spin - it can reduce the size of your GIFs by 50% or more - http://www.digfrontiers.com/gcrunch.html. Currently, all enabled HVS GIFCruncher features are free so everyone can get acquainted with the service and the excellent results it can produce. We will be transitioning to a fee basis for Custom and Batch operations in a few weeks, but basic operations will remain free. On a related note, we've had many requests for a desktop version of HVS GIFCruncher. We're working on it now, and expect it to be ready in a few weeks - if you would like to be included on an early release list, please let us know at info(a)digfrontiers.com. The HVS GIFCruncher Webmaster Version is available now, and can automatically process an entire local, FTP or HTTP directory -- or an entire site -- and optimize all the GIFs that it finds using award-winning HVS optimization algorithms. Details are at http://www.digfrontiers.com/gc_wv_faq.html. Thanks for your time and keep conserving bandwidth with HVS products! ----------------- Digital Frontiers 1019 Asbury Ave. Evanston, IL 60202 847-328-0880 voice 847-869-2053 fax info(a)digfrontiers.com http://www.digfrontiers.com
