Fluorescent pink dye in fertilizer
designed to discourage meth-maker theft
08/22/2004 01:26 PM

Mark Frauenfelder: Farmers are hoping that a pink-colored stain, called GloTell, will prevent speed chemists from stealing their anhydrous ammonia, which is used as a crop fertilizer. It's also a critical ingredient in methamphetamine manufacture.

The visible stain, even if washed off, was still detectable by ultraviolet light 24 to 72 hours later....

"Most people that are drug users, they like a clean-looking drug if they are going to ... put it in their body," Clements said. "We know the end-product is not pretty at all."

Snort it, and it turns the nose fluorescent pink. Inject it, and the telltale pink shows up at the injection site, he said.

I'm guessing this will fail. Speed users would rather have pink noses than no speed. Adding green food coloring to beer doesn't stop people from drinking on Saint Patrick's Day. So why would speed users turn up their nose at a line a pink-colored crystal meth? Link

Identity Theft And Meth


Identity Theft And Meth 06/08/2004 10:50 AM
USA Today is running an AP article talking about how law enforcement is working on bet ter ways to combat identity theft, where someone mentions that all of those involved with identity theft also are involved with methamphetamine. That was certainly true of the profile of an identity theft ring we wrote about last year, but it seems like focusing on that aspect shouldn't be useful for very long. With the rate at which identity theft crime is growing, it seems likely that it, too, will start to get taken over by organized crime groups - and will become increasingly sophisticated. In other words, if you thought identity theft was bad now, it's only going to get worse. At what point will credit agencies and financial institutions realize that they need to take the issue of identity theft more seriously?

Top VCs Trying To Discourage The
Competition
01/27/2004 02:53 PM
It seems that some of the bigger name venture capitalists out there are suddenly saying that there's too much venture money flowing into the market again and that means that it's much more difficult for the horses they've backed to compete. Apparently, they would prefer it if venture financing remained an exclusive little club where the old boys could pick two or three players and let them fight it out in the dog pit, and then pick up their winnings at the IPO window. Of course, I'm not sure why these guys should care so much. Assuming they know how to make a good investment, then who cares if the other VC firms are throwing their money away? They always talk about how much their guidance and experience helps the companies they invest in - so what do they care if lesser VCs are backing other companies that compete with their companies?

MMOs discourage heroism, FRPGs encourage
it
08/07/2004 05:30 AM
Very good Terra Nova post analyses the ways that Massively Multiplayer games discourage the acts of heroism that made D&D so much fun to play.
On one level, this tale highlights the plight of low levels in the MMORPG. They pose the litmus test: do opportunities for heroism exist for them in and amongst the treadmills? Is it ever possible for a low-level to make a *real difference?* Perhaps, for some, an exceptional stand by a NOOB ("newbie") party against MOB trains (large flocks of NPC monsters) in some NOOB dungeon somewhere, qualifies. But is there a more fundamental difference?

Consider. Can one make the argument that MMORPGs, as an adventuring platform, have gone astray with player = single(few)-avatar assumption? Because of the investment of time (read treadmills), social and emotional capital, players are practically limited by the number of characters they can play. Consequently, they are loath to get in "over their heads" and virtual worlds are loath to offer dire scenarios with only heroic exits for a few. Hardly a profound point, but the question: is such a dynamic, in some guise, necessary for the organic emergence of heroic narratives in an MMORPG?

Through a humbling 12-step program modeled after Alcoholics Anonymous, they are battling to kick their addiction to methamphetamine, and in doing so escape an epidemic that is roiling urban gay communities nationwide with disease, despair, embarrassment and anger.

Mostly nontechnical today, so let’s do the geeky stuff first: Chet Haase talks up ImageIO and he’s right, it’s coolio, I’ve used it too. Greg Reimer draws a persuasive analogy between conspiracy theories and Internet Worms. Then, Chris Calkins gives us an almost-all-pin k day including a huge picture of a terrific flower; definitely my kind of stuff. Jason Schroeder has a wonderful I-hate-airlines rant, every frequent traveler in the world will be saying “Amen!” And to end the week on a light note, here’s a posting reproduced without permission from the Sun internal Mac Users mailing list: “And it came to pass in those days that they did iPodify their bimmers, yea even unto the those of them that had already more toys than they knew what do to with...” I mean, if iPodifying bimmers isn't a sign of the End Times, well, I just don't know what is.

Nintendo to Release Pink GBA SP


Nintendo to Release Pink GBA SP 08/07/2004 10:36 AM

pink_gbasp.jpg imageNintendo is following up their well-received custom Game Boy Advance SPs (like the popular NES Edition model) with an all-new, "girl-targeted" 'Pink' model, essentially a reissue of the 'pink satin' model available since launch in Japan. I take some offense, though, that only girls will find the new Pink edition appealing; I think it will perfectly compliment my bristling, kinky chest hair.

The new GBA SP is scheduled for an October 29th release, you know, right before Pinkoween.
