Aide takes blame for tax return provision

2004-12-03 Thread R.A. Hettinga
<http://washingtontimes.com/upi-breaking/20041203-124037-3201r.htm>

The Washington Times

  Aide takes blame for tax return provision

 Washington, DC, Dec. 3 (UPI) -- Language in the omnibus spending bill
giving congressional staff access to U.S. tax returns was inserted by a
mid-level aide, not a member of Congress.

 Richard Efford, a 19-year veteran of the House Appropriations Committee
staff, said he was responsible for the controversial provision, which
critics characterized as an invasion of privacy.

 Efford said he did not consult with Appropriations Subcommittee Chairman
Ernest Istook, R-Okla., before including the language, which he said was
simply an attempt to give committee staff the authority to enter Internal
Revenue Service facilities to inspect how taxpayer funds were being used.
He said the genesis of the provision was the IRS' objection to his request
to visit a tax return processing facility. "They said if someone's return
was up on a computer screen and you glanced at it there would be a release
of taxpayer information," a breach of privacy laws the IRS could not
accept, Efford told the Washington Post.

 The provision's existence became known just hours before a vote on the
spending package. It set off an uproar that led congressional leaders to
hold off on sending the bill to the president's desk until the provision
could be struck from the bill.

Quantum memory for light

December 03, 2004


Realization of quantum memory for light allows the extension of quantum
communication far beyond 100 km

In the macroscopic classical world, it is possible to copy information from
one device into another. We do this everyday, when, for example, we copy
files in a computer or we tape a conversation. In the microscopic world,
however, it is not possible to copy the quantum information from one system
into another one. It can only be transferred, without leaving any trace on
the original one. The manipulation and transfer of quantum information is,
in fact, a very active field of research in physics and informatics, since
it is the basis of all the protocols and algorithms in the fields of
quantum communication and computation, which may revolutionize the world of
information. In the work published in Nature, November 25, 2004, scientists
from the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics in Garching and the Niels
Bohr Institute in Copenhagen have proposed a scheme to transfer the quantum
state of a pulse of light onto a set of atoms and have demonstrated it
experimentally.
--

cells inside magnetic shields 1 and 2. The path of the recorded and
read-out light pulses is shown with arrows. (Max Planck Institute of
Quantum Optics / Niels Bohr Institute Copenhagen)
-
In the experiment, a pulse of light is prepared in a certain quantum state
whose properties (polarization) are randomly chosen. Then, the light is
sent through a set of atoms which are contained in a small transparent box
(an atomic cell) at room temperature. In the cell, the light and atoms
interact with each other, giving rise to an "entangled" state in which the
two systems remain correlated. After abandoning the atomic sample, the
pulse of light is detected. Due to the fact that the light and atoms are
entangled, the process of measurement on the light affects the quantum
state of the atoms in such a way that they acquire the original properties
of the light. In this way, the state of polarization of the photons is
transferred into the polarization state of the atoms. This "action at a
distance", in which by performing a measurement on a system it affects the
state of another system which is at a different location is one of the most
intriguing manifestations of Quantum Mechanics, and is the basis of
applications such as quantum cryptography or phenomena like teleportation.

In order to check that the transfer of polarization has indeed taken place,
the researcher measured the polarization of the atoms at the beginning of
the experiment and compared it with the original state of polarization of
the light. In the experiment, these two polarizations coincided up to a 70%
of the time. The main reason for the imperfections where the due to
spontaneous emission, a process in which the atoms absorb the photons but
then emit them in a different direction such that they do not go towards
the photo-detector.

A question that the authors of the paper had to carefully analyze was to
what extent 70% percent of coincidence is enough to claim that the process
was successful. Or, in other words, could they obtain the same result by
measuring the state of polarization of the photons and then preparing the
state of the atoms accordingly? The answer is no. Due to the basic
properties of quantum mechanics, the state of polarization of a laser pulse
cannot be fully detected. Due to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, it
is impossible to measure the full polarization exactly. In fact, as some of
the authors together with K. Hammerer and M. Wolf (from the Max Planck
Institute of Quantum Optics) have recently shown, the best one can do using
this latter method would be 50%. This implies that the experiment indeed
has successfully demonstrated the transfer beyond what one could do without
creating the entangled state.

The current experiment paves the way for new experiments in which the
information contained in light can be mapped onto atomic clusters and then
back into the light again. In this way, one could not only store the state
of light in an atomic clusters, but also retrieve it. This process will be
necessary if we want to build quantum repeaters, that is, devices which
will allow the extension of quantum communication far beyond the distances
(of the order of 100 km) which are achieved nowadays.

They've Got Your Number

2004-12-03 Thread R.A. Hettinga


Wired 12.12:

They've Got Your Number Š 
Š your text messages and address book, and a way to bug your calls. Why
spam, scams, and viruses are coming soon to a phone near you.

By Annalee NewitzPage 1 of 4 next »


It's a beautiful afternoon in Shepherd's Bush, a bustling neighborhood on
the outskirts of London, and Adam Laurie is feeling peckish. Heading out of
the office, he's about to pick up more than a sandwich. As he walks, he'll
be probing every cell phone that comes within range of a hidden antenna he
has connected to the laptop in his bag. We stroll past a park near the Tube
station, then wander into a supermarket. Laurie contemplates which sort of
crisps to buy while his laptop quietly scans the 2.4-GHz frequency range
used by Bluetooth devices, probing the cell phones nestled in other
shoppers' pockets and purses.

Laurie, 42, the CSO of boutique security firm the Bunker, isn't going to
mess with anyone's phone, although he could: With just a few tweaks to the
scanning program his computer is running, Laurie could be crashing cell
phones all around him, cutting a little swath of telecommunications
destruction down the deli aisle. But today Laurie is just gathering data.
We are counting how many phones he can hack using Bluetooth, a wireless
protocol for syncing cell phones with headsets, computers, and other
devices.

We review the results of the expedition in a nearby pub. In the 17 minutes
we wandered around, Laurie's computer picked up signals from 39 phones. He
peers at his monitor for a while. "It takes only 15 seconds to suck down
somebody's address book, so we could have had a lot of those," he says at
last. "And at least five of these phones were vulnerable to an attack."

 The "attack" Laurie mentions so casually could mean almost anything - a
person using another person's cell to make long distance calls or changing
every phone number in his address book or even bugging his conversations.
There are, he says, "a whole range of new powers" available to the intrepid
phone marauder, including nasty viral attacks. A benign Bluetooth worm has
already been discovered circulating in Singapore, and Laurie thinks future
variants could be something really scary. Especially vulnerable are
Europeans who use their mobile phone to make micropayments - small
purchases that show up as charges on cell phone bills. A malicious virus
maker bent on a get-rich-quick scheme could take advantage of this feature
by issuing "reverse SMS" orders.

 Bluetooth security has become a pressing issue in Europe, where the
technology is ubiquitous. The problem will migrate to American shores as
the protocol catches on here, too. But in the long run, Bluetooth
vulnerabilities are manageable: Handset manufacturers can rewrite faulty
implementations, and cell phone users will learn to be more careful. A far
bigger security nightmare for the US is Internet telephony, which is fast
being adopted for large corporations and is available to consumers through
many broadband providers. Voice over IP is, by design, hacker-friendly. No
enterprising criminals have dreamed up a million-dollar scam exploiting
VoIP technology yet. But when they do, it likely won't be something a
simple patch can fix.

 Bluetooth hacking is technically very different from VoIP hacking, but
they're both surging for the same basic reason. Increasingly, telephones
have become indistinguishable from computers, which makes them more useful,
but also more vulnerable. VoIP, which routes calls over the Internet, gives
users the power to port their phone number anywhere, package voice messages
into MP3s and receive them as emails, and make cheap international calls.
Yet VoIP, like Bluetooth, exposes your telephone to the same ills that
regularly befall a desktop box - worms, spam, crashes.

 "It's not like we've fixed the vulnerabilities on computers," says
security expert Bruce Schneier, author of Secrets and Lies: Digital
Security in a Networked World. "The phone network used to get its security
from being closed, but VoIP phones will be just as bad as computers."

Many of today's hacks work because the traditional phone system was built
on the premise that only large, monopolistic phone companies would be using
it, and they would all play by the same rules. But the network isn't the
telcos' private sandbox anymore; it can be manipulated and controlled by
anybody who understands basic computer networking. The people who know this
best are a new generation of phone hackers - aka phreakers - who aren't
interested in following the rules. They're busy ripping apart the latest
phones to discover what can make them turn against their owners. As the
phone companies and handset makers lumber along, we can only hope that the
phreaks in white hats figure out some fixes before the blackhats move in
for the kill.

phones in the Shepherd's

I tried, years before _UC_ came out, to get some friends to name their
daughter Chlamydia. They didn't know what the word meant, but for some
reason didn't trust my advice. Nor did they like Pudenda.

I also tried to get my wife to agree to a heroic name for our son. In

No, she didn't go for it.

The Source of Hitler's Success

by Ludwig von Mises

[Posted December 3, 2004]

The following, written in 1940, is excerpted from Interventionism, An
Economic Analysis, which was originally part of
Nationaloekonomie,
the German predecessor to Human Action.
The entire
text is online for the first time.
Support Mises.org's online texts.

 Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini constantly proclaim that they are chosen by
destiny to bring salvation to this world. They claim they are the leaders
of the creative youth who fight against their outlived elders. They bring
from the East the new culture which is to replace the dying Western
civilization. They want to give the coup de grace to liberalism and
capitalism; they want to overcome immoral egoism by altruism; they plan to
replace the anarchic democracy by order and organization, the society of
“classes” by the total state, the market economy by socialism. Their war is
not a war for territorial expansion, for loot and hegemony like the
imperialistic wars of the past, but a holy crusade for a better world to
live in. And they feel certain of their victory because they are convinced
that they are borne by “the wave of the future.”

It is a law of nature, they say, that great historic changes cannot take
place peacefully or without conflict. It would be petty and stupid, they
contend, to overlook the creative quality of their work because of some
unpleasantness which the great world revolution must necessarily bring with
it. They maintain one should not overlook the glory of the new gospel
because of ill-placed pity for Jews and Masons, Poles and Czechs, Finns and
Greeks, the decadent English aristocracy and the corrupt French
bourgeoisie. Such softness and such blindness for the new standards of
morality prove only the decadence of the dying capitalistic pseudo-culture.
The whining and crying of impotent old men, they say, is futile; it will
not stop the victorious advance of youth. No one can stop the wheel of
history, or turn back the clock of time.

The success of this propaganda is overwhelming. People do not consider the
content of alleged new gospel; they merely understand that it is new and
believe to see in this fact its justification. As women welcome a new style
in clothes just to have a change, so the supposedly new style in politics
and economics is welcomed. People hasten to exchange their “old” ideas for
“new” ones, because they fear to appear old-fashioned and reactionary. They
join the chorus decrying the shortcomings of the capitalistic civilization
and speak in elated enthusiasm of the achievements of the autocrats.
Nothing is today more fashionable than slandering Western civilization.

This mentality has made it easy for Hitler to gain his victories. The
Czechs and the Danes capitulated without a fight. Norwegian officers handed
over large sections of their country to Hitler’s army. The Dutch and the
Belgians gave in after only a short resistance. The French had the audacity
to celebrate the destruction of their independence as a “national revival.”
It took Hitler five years to effect the Anschluss of Austria;
two-and-one-half years later he was master of the European continent.

Hitler does not have a new secret weapon at his disposal. He does not owe
his victory to an excellent intelligence service which informs him of the
plans of his opponents. Even the much-talked-of “fifth column” was not
decisive. He won because the supposed opponents were already quite
sympathetic to the ideas for which he stood.

Only those who unconditionally and unrestrictedly consider the market
economy as the only workable form of social cooperation are opponents of
the totalitarian systems and are capable of fighting them successfully.
Those who want socialism intend to bring to their country the system which
Russia and Germany enjoy. To favor interventionism means to enter a road
which inevitably leads to socialism.

An ideological struggle cannot be fought successfully with constant
concessions to the principles of the enemy. Those who refute capitalism

A Plan for Liberty

A Plan for Liberty


 We yearn to experience a zero-government society (ZGS.) But how can we
cause it to happen?

 Opinions differ quite widely, and that suggests nobody really knows. Given
that it would be unique in human experience, that's unsurprising. Proposals
tend to group into four:

1.   Enjoy life and do nothing, confident that eventually the State
will implode of its own accord, by the inexorable laws of economics
2.   Work to reduce the State gradually, by any of a variety of 
means
such as political activism, tax and other resistance
3.   Found a free society beyond a frontier, where no existing State
is operating
4.   Educate opinion leaders, so that they will help us change our
existing society.

 I'm not convinced about #1, because the laws of economics have operated
for thousands of years but as far as we know have never yet caused a State
to implode. They did, it's true, pull the props from under the Soviet one,
but only because its leaders were so dumb as to flout them deliberately,
for the first time ever; other governments have been smart enough to allow
cows to live, in order to milk them. Thus, this option could involve a very
long wait.

 Option #2 is praiseworthy, but to my mind takes too little account of the
awesome power of government to close down any resistance as soon as it
shows promise of success. We're familiar with the political freeze-out, for
example; very skilfully, Libertarians are prevented from getting elected.
Those who lead tax revolts are silenced.

 Option #3 would be great, except that no frontiers exist any more, or not
on this Planet except for regions so barren and cold that normal life would
hardly be feasible. Additionally even if a ZGS were to prosper in
Antarctica, for example, what is to stop those States most shamed by its
success and appeal from nuking it out of existence? Fears of melted ice?

 Option #4 holds more promise, but so far has made very modest headway and
suffers from one flaw: no plan exists (to my knowledge) to bring about an
intellectual conversion of everyone in society - only of the leaders. The
usually-unspoken assumption is that once the elite sees the way to go, they
will take everyone else along; by force (eg by a majority-vote plebiscite)
if necessary. I have in the past made just such a proposal. Somehow,
though, that seems to sit ill with our self-ownership, no-force axiom.

 So this paper proposes a new and ambitious variation on Option 4:
universal re-education which will result in a fully anarchist America by
the year 2027. It rests upon the following assumptions:
1.   All humans are rational, thus open to reasoned persuasion
2.   The free market (market anarchism) is the only rational system
3.   A thorough yet simple course can be designed, to teach such a
system on line
4.   Once he understands it, every new anarchist will want to help
teach it to others
 Those assumptions should be checked. All are critical, but  here are
remarks about the first two.

The Nature of a ZGS
 A free society would consist only of people who wish to belong to it - who
transact with other people only by means of contracts they wish to make.

 Therefore, everyone - not just some - must be shown its virtues, and
desire them. Given that the first ZGS must occupy some geographic area
currently in control of a government, only two alternatives exist:

 (i) 100% of that population be re-educated so everyone volunteers, or

 (ii) Some volunteer and the rest are made to move out! - a step hardly
consistent with our nonagression axiom.

 I wondered about that possibility that a very small residue of ineducable
statists remained, intransigent. Must they be forced out? - I think not.
Nobody in the free society would (being well-educated) elect to trade with
them except under the terms of proper contracts, and so they would either
sign those contracts (to use somebody's road, for example, or to buy
someone's potatoes) or leave of their own accord. It would be possible to
live as a hermit with a veggie garden and no human interaction, but
statists are not made of such hardy stuff so I predict it would never
happen.

 So it seems to me our aim should be for 100%, and that is a new
proposition, a higher aim than anarchists have previously proposed.

 Society is Not an Onion
 It's often observed that a cultural or intellectual change needs to be
made by approaching society as if it were an onion; convert the outer (most
open-minded, leader-thinker) layer first, then peel off the next, and so on
until no further persuasion is possible. Certainly, we may suppose that
somewhere in there is to be found a hard, resistant core of government
junkies who would starve rather than work for their own living; and
certainly, everyday experience tells us that some listen better than others.

 However, a satisfactory plan for movin

[Interest] FWD: The last crusade of the Templars

2004-12-03 Thread R.A. Hettinga
I've liked to joke that, because of their encrypted "passbook" accounting
and payment system, a way for holy-land pilgrims to deposit money in
Europe, deduct amounts from an encrypted document for Templar-sponsored
passage, hostelry, etc., en route, and collect the remainder on arrival in
Jerusalem, that the Templars were the original financial cryptographers.
:-).

More seriously, it was operating this kind of medieval Western Union cum
Brinks cum Wells Fargo cum Hilton, which not only allowed them to
effectively transfer the asset value of whatever booty they may have
acquired in their early days back home, but also to make the lion's share
of the money they were eventually disbanded for...

Cheers,
RAH

The last crusade of the Templars
By Ruth Gledhill

The knights want a Papal apology nearly 700 years after they were
disbanded and hounded into exile

THE VATICAN is giving "serious consideration" to apologising for the
persecution that led to the suppression of the Knights Templar. The
suppression, which began on Friday , October 13, 1307, gave Friday the
Thirteenth its superstitious legacy.


A Templar Order in Britain that claims to be descended from the original
Knights Templar has asked that the Pope should make the apology.

The Templars, based in Hertford, are hoping for an apology by 2007, the
700th anniversary of the start of the persecution, which culminated with
the torture and burning at the stake of the Grand Master Jacques de Molay
for heresy and the dissolution of the Order by apostolic decree in 1312.

The letter, signed by the Secretary of the Council of Chaplains on behalf
of the Grand Master of the Poor Fellow Soldiers of Jesus Christ and the
Temple of Solomon Grand Preceptory, with a PO box address in Hertford,
formally requests an apology for "the torture and murder of our
leadership", instigated by Pope Clement V.

"We shall witness the 700th anniversary of the persecution of our order on
13th October 2007", the letter says. "It would be just and fitting for the
Vatican to acknowledge our grievance in advance of this day of mourning."

Apologies have already been made by the Roman Catholic Church for the
persecution of Galileo and for the Crusades. The Templars hope that these
precedents will make their suit more likely to succeed.

Hertford Templar Tim Acheson, who is descended from the Scottish Acheson
family that has established Templar links and whose family lived until
recently in Bailey Hall, Hertford, said: "This letter is a serious attempt
by a Templar group which traces its roots back to the medieval Order to
solicit an apology from the Papacy."

He added: "The Papacy and the Kingdom of France conspired to destroy the
Order for reasons which modern historians judge to be primarily political.
Their methods and motives are now universally regarded as brutal, unfair
and unjustified.

"The Knights Templar officially ceased to exist in the early 1300s, but
the order continued underground. It was a huge organisation and the vast
majority of Templars survived the persecution, including most of their
leaders, along with much of their treasure and, most importantly, their
original values and traditions."

The Hertford Mercury newspaper has reported newly discovered Templar links
with Hertford, including a warren of tunnels beneath the town. At the
heart of the maze of tunnels is Hertford Castle, where in 1309 four
Templars from Temple Dinsley near Hitchin were imprisoned after their
arrest by Edward II, who believed that they were holding a lost treasure.
The treasure was never found.

When Subterranea Britannica, a group of amateur archaeologists, expressed
an interest in investigating Hertfords tunnels last month, they received
anonymous threats telling them not to.

The Templars captured Jerusalem during the Crusades and were known as
"keepers of the Holy Grail", said to be the cup used at the Last Supper or
as the receptacle used by Joseph of Arimathea to catch Christs blood as he
bled on the Cross, or both.

Interest in the Templars and the Holy Grail is at an unprecedented high
after the success of books such as The Da Vinci Code, by Dan Brown, and
the earlier Holy Blood Holy Grail, by Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh and
Henry Lincoln, which claimed that Jesus survived the crucifixion and
settled in France.

Re: Anti-RFID outfit deflates Mexican VeriChip hype

Since kidnapping is sort of an unofficial national sport in Mexico (or at
least Mexico City), this is particularly apropos.  An implanted RFID seems to
be just asking for an "express kidnap", something more traditionally used to
get money from ATMs.
