Alex Kelly Strikes Again
by Duncan Frissell 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Alex Kelly, our favorite Greenwich Connecticut high school jock, accused rapist, ex-fugitive who returned to the US to face trial after 8 years on the run in Europe has done it again. He filed the paperwork to gain recognition of Irish citizenship from the Irish Consulate and his claim has been recognized. He is now free to apply for an Irish Passport. The DA is trying to yank his $1,000,000 bail. The wire services incorrectly report that he has been "granted" Irish citizenship. Actually, like anyone who has at least one grandparent born in Ireland, he *is* an Irish citizen under that nation's permissive nationality law and merely had to register his (overseas) birth with the Consulate.

(Fwd) Black Liberation Radio

------- Forwarded Message Follows ------- Date: Thu, 16 Jan 1997 12:36:31 -0700 From: "Clover Hale" <clover(a)iaj.xo.com> Subject: Black Liberation Radio To: iaj-futuremedia(a)igc.org BLACK LIBERATION RADIO BUSTED! This morning, the FCC raided Black Liberation Radio in Decatur, Illinois and seized all the equipment. BLR, an unlicensed radio station operated by Napolean and Mildred Williams, has been a growing thorn in the side of the local power structure. BLR has brought together the predominantly white workers who have undergone bitter strikes in the 90s (Caterpillar, etc.) with unemployed blacks and whites. It has given them all a voice, not just locally but to a degree nationally (Napolean was the keynote speaker at the recent Micro Broadcasters Convention in Oakland). This pioneering station must go back on the air. Napoleon requests donations to help them fight this. Please send what you can to: Napoleon Williams, 637 E Center St., Decatur IL 63526. In the face of a growing police state, Napoleon and Mildred are fighting back. They need your help. *PLEASE* call to issue protests: State Attorney General Jim Ryan 217-782-1090 Macon County States Attorney Lawrence "Larry" Fichter 217-424-1400 101 South Main, Decatur,Il 62523. ------------ Makani Themba mthemba(a)igc.apc.org 3780 Webster Street, Oakland, CA 94609 (510) 655-3112 (voice) (510) 658-5122 (fax) "Whoever controls the flow of information dictates our perceptions and perspectives; whoever controls the news shapes our destiny." - George Clinton Stop the execution of Mumia Abu Jamal! =-=-=-=-=-=- Ross Wright King Media: Bulk Sales of Software Media and Duplication Services http://www.slip.net/~cdr/kingmedia Voice: 415-206-9906

However, since the government has pressed the point, couldn't one use this same logic to claim that since face-to-face conversations are assumed to be private that wire taps are illegal. I seem to recall that Chief Justice Brandice made this argument in the late '20s. Look where we are today. --Steve

One time pads and randomness?
by AaronH4321＠aol.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Question: I want to use a one time pad pased crypto system. I understand that the randomness of the pad genorator is key to security(other than lossing the keys). What I want to know is if I use a psuedo-RNG that maybe repeats its self every 1000 characters and use it to only encrypt messagase that are 100's of charaters long, will this be a major security risk? Next question: Say I create a 1 million character one time pad that passes all of the randomness tests. It is "truely random". I place it on two computers. Now when these two computers want to send email computer "A" grabs a chunk of the one time pad starting at a random point and encrypts it. It labels the email with the random starting point and sends it to "B". There "B" moves to the random point and begins decryption. During to process both computers mark that section of the OTP used so that they don't retransmit with it. I realize this has a limited amount of messages before it is used up. But would this be secure? Any suggestions, complaints, big gapping holes I missed? Aaron....

One time pads, Next question?
by AaronH4321＠aol.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Okay, with the intel I have gotten from the responses let me modify and clarify. So, I now know that you can't use a PRNG to create a OTP. If I did have a RNG that could create a "cryptographically" random, million character OTP and I physically loaded the data onto each computer I wanted to communicate with(e.i. group of laptops all loaded at the same location, same time), how cryptographically secure would the data be. I know that physical security would be a nessescary to the system. If I add some type of error checking to make sure someone that knows the plaintext doesn't modify specific characters, an attacker knows what the message is (e.g. "Send $10 to Bob") the message can be altered (to "Send $99 to Bob") even though it is encrypted. So, lets recap. If the keyig material is kept secure, and if the OTP is cryptographically random, and if error checking is implemented then would this be considered a secure(however encumbering it may be) system.
