Hence the efficacy of Marliyn Manson's posturing in scaring the bejeebers out of conservative Christian authorities.

http://foxnews.com/world/031701/germany_palkot.sml # # Child's Murder in Germany Prompts Debate Over Mandatory DNA Testing # # Saturday, March 17, 2001 By Greg Palkot # # The brutal murder of 12-year-old Ulrike Brandt, who went missing # from her hometown north of Berlin last month, sparked outrage # across Germany when her strangled and sexually abused body was # found by authorities. # # Those who knew here mourned. "It was terrible that this could # happen," one neighbor said. "She was such a nice girl." Funeral # services were held Friday. # # The emotional case sparked a wider debate when some politicians # called for all German men to submit to DNA testing to help find # the girl's killer, and prevent similar crimes in the future. # That call has been rejected by other leading officials, and # brought back for the some the terrible memories of Germany's # Nazi and Communist past, when individual rights were systemat # ically disregarded. # # There is a precedent in post-Cold War Germany for such DNA # testing, in which a saliva samples from those tested are matched # with genetic material found on the victim. In 1998, the killer # of another young German girl was found after more than 16,000 # men underwent DNA testing. # # This new proposal has a much wider potential impact, however, # and could theoretically involve 41 million people. # # Supporters have promised to push their case. "I am ready to go # very far with legislation," Norbert Geis, legal spokesman for # Germany's CDU/CSU opposition coalition told Fox News, "in order # to catch sexual offenders against children." # # Opponents of the plan argue that current German law guards against # perceived invasions of privacy. "It's unconstitutional to take # a fingerprint of someone not proven guilty," remarked Volcker # Beck, Alliance 90/Green party parliament member, "so it is clear # you can't take a genetic fingerprint, either." # # Similar privacy concerns have been raised in the U.S and # elsewhere. Still, DNA testing has had success in America, # particularly at the state level. And Britain is moving to create # a broader national genetic data bank. # # Geis and other supporters of the DNA testing plan for Germany # have since backed off their earlier hardline positions. But more # extensive testing does have popular support. # # "It's no problem for me," one Berlin man noted. And a young German # woman remarked, "It's good, so long as they can find the killer." # # Voluntary DNA testing in Eberswalde, where Ulrike lived, is # already under way.

The 'height of the Pagan Empire" came several centuries earlier. Barbarians couldn't have sacked Rome at it's height - they could not have got within several hundred miles of the city.

Are there any zero-knowledge proof protocols for possession of discrete logarithm such that X=g^x mod N? N is a composite number, e.g. N=PQ is a RSA module. Thanks.

Information about Becoming A Member of Better A Millstone
by BAM ChildAdvocates 19 Mar '01

19 Mar '01

Dear "Joe Cypherpunk": Thank you very much for your email and your kind words! However, I have to stress to you that no member of Better A Millstone was responsible for taking down BoyChat, Girl Chat, and their domain, "ivan.net", and we have to be very careful that we are not connected with such illegal activity. Now, whereas we are happy that BoyChat and Girl Chat are indeed down, as a legal organization that has a good relationship with law enforcement agencies around the world, we can not be associated with the illegal activities of hackers, no mater how worth of being shut down the specific web sites are. All we a Better A Millstone do is provide information and intelligence about child sex predators, child pornographers, and their web sites by emails and on our web pages...and if someone happens to read this material and then get angry enough to take on of their web sites down, then we were simply the messenger. I hope that you understand! Now, if you would like to join us in working legally to deal with the child sex predators and child pornographers and their web sites, please read this email and the application email that I will send to you separately. Membership in Better A Millstone--BAM for short--is open to anyone age 18 and up who has basic Internet expertise and access and who does not have any felony or misdemeanor convictions involving children. To familiarize yourself with BAM and what we do, please go to BAM's main web page at <http://www.shadow-net.com>. Then go to the menu of BAM's other web pages at the bottom of that page and click on them to visit them and learn as much as you can about Better A Millstone and the information that we have available on the Internet and what we do. Please understand that as a member of BAM you will be helping to protect children by spending part of your life gathering intelligence and information about child sex predators and child pornographers who are engaged in ingratiating themselves to innocent and unwitting children for the purpose of sexually assaulting and photographing them by acting as "The Internet Eyes & Ears for Law Enforcement". You will be expected to spend a minimum of three hours a week lurking on the Internet as a child advocate and to be proactive in going on the Internet and gathering intelligence and information about suspected child sex predators and child pornographers and providing same to the appropriate law enforcement agencies (i.e., the specific law enforcement agencies within whose jurisdictions the child sex predators and child pornographers are operating, such as U.S. Customs for virtually ALL Internet sex crimes involving children as well as state and local police departments where these perpetrators are operating). And you will be expected to not only initiate contact with these law enforcement agencies but also to follow up with them to see that they do indeed take your information seriously and take action. And if you are not satisfied that they are doing what you think they should do to protect children, you are asked to contact other members of BAM for assistance. Further, please understand that everyone who applies to become a volunteer member of Better A Millstone must go to their local police or other law enforcement agency to have their identification verified and a criminal background check completed and submitted to Better A Millstone. Now, if you still wish to apply to become a member of Better A Millstone, please fill out and return the online application which has been sent to you separately. Once you have been accepted as a member of BAM, you will be given instructions and information via e-mail to help you learn what to do. And you will be provided with e-mail addresses to contact seasoned members of BAM to help you learn how to do your work. Once you feel confident about what you have been taught, you will be free to apply your interests and talents to help protect children on the Internet independent of someone telling you what you must or must not do. But, for your own safety as well as to uphold the principles of BAM, you will be expected to abide by a few simple rules: (1) Never, ever, download and save child pornography! (2) Always write down and save the URL (i.e., Internet address) of web sites with such material! (3) Never, ever, pose as an adult or teenager seeking sex with a child or child pornography! (4) Always keep detailed records of anyone who asks this of you (i.e., their e-mail address, IRC number, ICQ number, etc.). After filling out and returning the On-Line Application for Better A Millstone (which is being sent to you as a separate e-mail) and being accepted as a member of BAM, you will receive a detailed e-mail to help you learn the ropes so that you can be an effective Internet child advocate.

Dear Joe, As far as Erik Rosser in concerned, he made his mark in Tailand and Taiwan. He took videos with him having sex with preteen girls, some as young as 8 or 9. Yahoo clubs is a haven for hosting club that cater to pedophiles wishing to swap pictures of child porn. All you need to do is become a member using a false e-mail address (I suggest you set one up through hotmail. Yes this is totally legal) so you can gather information on those clubs. If you do this, keep track og the URL's of the clubs and turn this information over to us so we can check these clubs out and get those perps busted. As soon as you receive your application, fill it out and return it to the address provided in the e-mail you receive. If I may ask, do you have a background working with children and if so, what do you do? We look foward to receiving your application. If your application is approved, (in this business, we must check out all new members throughly. This is for all concerned) you will receive an e-mail from Mr. Echols giving you useful and valuable information on how to carry out your work with BAM. You will also be given the names of of three Assistant Executive Directors, along with Mr. Echols, are experienced with working with new members.

It is disheartening to learn that BoyChat is trying to reestablish itself. Our children are indeed, as you said, out greatest resource, and no effort is too great to prevent them from being preyed upon by perps. I did have one question, which I forgot to include in my earlier message, however. I read a message on another chat board saying that BoyChat was down from a "Massive DDoS Attack." What kind of attack is that, and is it something BAM will teach me when I join so that I can make pedophile sites go down too? I didn't catch America's Most Wanted last night, but it makes me physically ill to think of the unspeakable acts Mr. Rosser is doing to the children in Spain. I haven't see any child pronorgraphy on the Web yet. But there is lots of adult pornography which opens windows in my browser faster than I can close them and then I have to reboot. God Bless you and Mr. Echols, and the wonderful work you are doing.
