They stopped my USENET communication after I had told that my thesis on the business consolidation of a foreign corporation in the North America was 100 % correct. I had told in 1991 that the consolidation of Ahlstrom Machinery, Inc. (AMI) was a failure and unsuccessful. During the 1990s many Ahsltrom Machinery's businesses were sold and the remaining parts were or are to be sold to Andritz from Graz, Austria in 2003. I had told them the truth in 1991 and I was punished by the executive management of AMI and people spread bad stories about me and my thesis in 1991 although it was graded as very good by one Professor. The Business Development Director of Ahsltrom Machinery, Inc. even forced me to change my thesis tosome extent by threatening to prevent me from graduating as the Masters of Science in Industrial Engineering and Management in April/May, 1991. His name is Markku Perkola. Itwas just my academic work.They had even told to my so called birthmother that my thesis was! no t good, although it was graded as very good and as it is now concluded I was 100 % correct and right. So my thesis was right and these people of Ahsltrom Machinery and many people of Varkaus, Finland, just wanted to hurt me and destroyed my careerat my age of 24 (12 years ago), when I had told them the truth about the failing business operations of Ahsltrom Machinery in the North America in 1991. So as the conclusion I was punished by people of Finland after I had told them the truth,which was my job in the first place. I was hired to write my thesis on their business consolidation and I told the truth. As we know now today Ahlstrom Machinery does not exist any longer. Markku J.

Is it multiple AVAs in an RDN, or multiple RDNs? (Either of these could be hard to generate with a lot of software, which can't handle multiple AVAs in an RDN or multiple same-type RDNs). Which hack is for MSIE and which is for Netscape?

Busted for hijacking web site (social engr)

Man Is Accused of Hijacking Web Site [*] He allegedly diverted Al Jazeera viewers to a bogus home page at the height of the war. By David Rosenzweig, Times Staff Writer A California man has been charged by federal authorities with hijacking Al Jazeera's Internet Web site during the Iraqi war and diverting viewers to a bogus home page that displayed an American flag and the message, "Let freedom ring." John William Racine II, a 24-year-old Web site designer from Norco, has agreed to plead guilty to wire fraud and unlawful interception of an electronic communication, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office said Wednesday . Impersonating an employee of the Arab television network's Web site, Racine allegedly tricked an Internet service provider into changing a password that enabled him to commandeer the Al Jazeera site, according to a criminal complaint. Racine was accused of intercepting about 300 e-mail messages intended for Al Jazeera before the takeover was discovered during the height of the war in March. Al Jazeera, the popular Arab satellite television channel based in Qatar, has been the target of some criticism in the United States because of its airing of videotaped pronouncements from fugitive Al Qaeda leaders Al Jazeera is backed by the government of Qatar but is widely perceived as editorially independent, experts said. Racine could not be reached for comment Wednesday. http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-jazeera12jun12,1,4525407.story?coll…
