Bush and McCain Trumped by Russian Georgia Move
2008-08-16 14:03:00 Bush and McCain Trumped by Russian Georgia Move It is less than ironic that the Russians are taking advantage of our military and economic weakness to make a move on Georgia — and by extension all the other nations in the region. The Bush and McCain military approaches to other nations have ...
Full Disk Encryption Can?t Be Trumped By Cardboard Boxes
2008-05-02 06:11:00 An administrative office handling the details of patients at Staten Island University Hospital, in New York, has lost a computer with information on 88,000 patients. Surprisingly, the theft happened four months ago, but is only being announced today. What?s also surprising is that the suspect was able to snag the computer?no word on whether it was a laptop (not that it would matter)?with the help of a cardboard box: he popped the computer into the box and strolled out the door. I?m inclined to believe that the computer was a desktop just because the box was used?and another prime example why the medium doesn?t matter. That is, people raise the issue of sensitive data being stored on laptop computers, but this is really a non?issue, as I keep pointing out. If thieves have proven anything, it?s that anything can be stolen, and quite easily to boot. But the physical theft of computers is not what?s at stake for most companies. Nope. Rath...

Is Trump Trumped?
2007-11-16 16:40:00 The Donald has been casting his net farther afield these days-- overseas in the highlands of Scotland. Trump is hoping to acquire land for his newest,"best golf course in the world". Problem is, the locals don't take too kindly to strangers - even if they have pots of money. In this poem, I've tried to get in the heads of all concerned and even dipped into Shakespeare's mind for a measure.Trumped?Trump, ?The Donald?s? on a questHis new golf-course will be best;Only thing that?s in his path,Man of Scotland and his wrath.Didn?t help Trump said, unjust,Forbes?s land raised his disgust;Farmer, Michael can?t be bought;Now the Donald?s truly caught.His heart?s set on Balmedie,But the Heritage Agency,Sides with Forbes and pressure group;Trump may have to fly the coop,?Less he pulls Ace from his sleeve--Ancestry, if we believe;Mary, of the MacLeod clanWas his mother?that?s his plan--Win the heart and mind of Scot;Macbeth?s lady would be hot,If she knew that she?d been trumped,By such sch...

O.J. Simpson Jailed On Trumped-Up Charges
2007-09-19 05:09:00 Ok. I've tried to avoid the O.J. Simpson matter because I thought it would go away and the Las Vegas law authorities would figure that it was a set-up -- it has all the signs of that. But they've not done so, thus, I'm going to weigh in. My view is that O.J. was set up by some totally loser characters that are involved in selling sports items of value, and who most likely stole the items from O.J. What really is bothersome is that the Las Vegas District Attorney's not really intelligent enough to see this matter for what it is, and avoid heaping on silly charges, but that's what's going on. On top of that, many media outlets, including CNN, feel it's the story to cover -- at first I disagreed, but the actions of the Las Vegas District Attorney's Office have caused me to think this is now a story. O.J.'s past is being used against him without the actual admission of the Las Vegas authorities. It makes me wonder if there's really such a thing as justice in a post 9/1...
