Clearly this should be called, by analogy with "honeypots", the "baklava-tray" strategy for catching intruders.

From John Stossel, pretty funny: >This week's "Give Me A Break!" is about Montgomery County's new ban on >smoking in your own home if it bothers a neighbor. It's not surprising that >Montgomery County is the first to do this; it is right next to Washington >D.C., where politicians are famous for running other people's lives. > >Montgomery County is also home to the mayor I interviewed recently, after he >banned smoking outdoors in his town. He said it was necessary to "protect >the children." After the interview, he went to the National Cathedral, >where he worked as an usher, and in the men's room, touched the genitals of >a 14 year old boy. After pleading guilty to sexual abuse, he lost on the >smoking front too--judges tossed out his town's ban on outdoor smoking. > >But the county's move on "at home" smoking hasn't been overturned. What's >next? Loud children? Perfume? Cooking with onions? > >Smoke frightens me lots less than sanctimonious politicians.

Symantec pulls an NAI

http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/55/23057.html "Eric Chien, chief researcher at Symantec's antivirus research lab, said that provided a hypothetical keystroke logging tool was used only by the FBI, then Symantec would avoid updating its antivirus tools to detect such a Trojan. The security firm is yet to hear back from the FBI on its enquiries about Magic Lantern but it already has a policy on the matter." Looks like a trend... -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin(a)mfn.org If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... --------------------------------------------------------------------

My guess for "mark" : derived from an old accounting method of marks on sticks or paper.

28 Nov '01

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> NOVEMBER 28, 2001 - THE WALLSTREET UNIVERSE REPORT UPDATE FOR NEW CENTURY - NCNY <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Dear Investors, On Monday we introduced you to New Century Companies, Inc. (OTC BB: NCNY.OB) at $0.45 per share. Enclosed is their current press release. At Wallstreet Universe, we will be keeping you informed of New Century updates and press releases for the next couple of months. Our last four profiles of: AMSE, CETA, CBBD and EMBI have performed tremendously and we expect the same of New Century! Good Trading - Steven Schwartz and Staff! mailto:support@wallstreetuniverse.com New Century Companies, Inc. Provides Update on Pending Merger LOS ANGELES, Nov. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- New Century Companies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: NCNY - news) announced additional details regarding its pending merger with Smith West, Inc. The merger will further position the Company as a leading, vertically integrated provider of machinery and cylindrical turbine parts for the power generation, defense and aerospace engine industries. The US machine tool industry is an industry with annual sales in excess of $30 billion. Upon consummation of the merger, the combined companies will have expected annual sales for 2002 in excess of $50 million and an order backlog between $70 and $80 million. Smith West is operating three state-of-the-art facilities in excess of 32,000 square feet each and has such high profile clientele as GE Aircraft and Gas Turbine Divisions and Honeywell. Moreover, New Century has been experiencing a recent upsurge in new orders from defense and power industry companies, adding to the significant synergies between these two companies. "Our long standing relationship with Smith West, as a client of ours, will enable us to quickly and efficiently integrate the two companies," said David Duquette, CEO of New Century Companies, Inc. "This combination places us at the top of list for many new defense and energy projects. The defense and energy industries have recently enjoyed the benefit of obtaining significant government contracts and we are just starting to see that trickle down into our businesses. We strongly feel that we will continue to see a material increase in our sales as these companies fully ramp up to meet their commitments." +>+>+> About New Century Companies, Inc. New Century, under its brand name Century Turn, specializes in manufacturing, remanufacturing and retrofitting machine tools, primarily Vertical Boring Mills and large Turning Lathes. New Century is assisting in solving the current power crisis. By offering remanufactured Vertical Boring Mills, the company saves or conserves millions of dollars per year in energy cost by re-utilizing the major castings of each Vertical Boring Mill. These savings, generally in the range of 40 to 60%, allow New Century to be the most price competitive manufacturer of Vertical Boring Mills in the U.S. These cost savings are passed on to New Century customers and afford them the opportunity to manufacture rotating turbine components for power generation at better costs. New Century machines are also used by manufacturers of jet engine components, airplane landing gear parts, oil and gas components, to name a few.
