Gay marriage compared to box-turtle
marriage in Senate, Daily Show replies 07/19/2004 02:52 AM
In a fit of astonishing lunacy, Texas Senator John Cornyn tried to explain the need to ban gay marriage in the context of the social harm that would accrue from allowing men to marry box turtles ("It does not affect your daily life very much if your neighbor marries a box turtle, but that does not mean it is right...Now you must raise you children up in a world where that union of man and box turtle is on the same legal footing as man and wife"). Jon Stewart's Daily Show segment on this statement is nothing short of brilliant. Let's hope it gets enough airplay to cost Cornyn the election (and possibly get him institutionalized somewhere...).

Hijacked Computers Responsible For
One-Third Of All Spam 12/03/2003 03:44 PM
Plenty of stories have been written about how many spammers are now using hijacked machines infected with some sort of trojan horse program to send out their spam. However, someone from an anti-virus company is saying that these "Remote Access Trojans (RATs)" are now respo nsible for one-third of all spam. Ouch. Of course, they don't back this up with any evidence, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's true. They seem to be getting plenty of publicity for this statement - but don't give any suggestions on how to solve this problem. If they're hyping it so much, you'd think those same articles would tell people how to protect themselves. Since the issue is so widespread, and education is unlikely to help, you have to wonder if a better solution is to have the broadband ISPs help out by determining which machines have been turned into "zombies" and alerting the owners.

Finding a Job with a Socially and
Environmentally Responsible Organization

Finding a Job with a Socially and
Environmentally Responsible Organization 06/05/2005 11:12 PM

Ten ideas that can help you find a meaningful job and make the world a better place at the same time. [posted from Orlando] Many of my readers would love to be working in jobs that help, rather than hurt, the environment and the interests of peace, democracy, community and sustainability, but either because they think they lack the qualifications, or because they believe there are no real prospects for such a job, they have given up trying. Peter Blanchard, who manages the wonderful GoodWork Canada site, which carries a very thorough list of such jobs, contracts, internships & opportunities (paid and volunteer), has just written an excellent article explaining how to find such a job. Here are the key points with a few of my editorial comments and amplification thrown in for good measure: Know Where and How to Look: The Internet is a powerful tool you can use to learn about issues, approaches, organizations, and potential opportunities. Be sure you're familiar with the major eco-portals and directories. Set aside a day to focus and explore them thoroughly. Here's a list of links to all the major eco-portals, networks and directories in Canada and beyond. While you surf, take notes, bookmark, set priorities, start a "do list". Develop standard resumes and application letters that you can customize to each situation. Build an active list of potential employment sources and an online network of contacts. Use Your Network Aggressively: Actively network and participate to learn, make contacts, and find your way around. The most effective networking happens when you're actively involved -- whether as an organizer, participant, volunteer or consultant. Take every opportunity for face-to-face meetings with people in your networks (but never be dishonest about your objectives in such meetings). If you go to conferences and trade shows, remember that the most important exchanges at such meetings happen outside the main agenda -- in breaks and post-even socials, in the corridors, and in follow-up appointments made at these events where you don't have to compete for attention with the rest of the crowd. Be positive and energetic, smile, relax, and have fun. In a previous article I identified ten keys to effective networking. To recap, they are: Do your research (who you want to meet, and when/how best to meet them) Develop 'elevator speeches' (rehearse what you want to say to make powerful first impressions) Don't underestimate the 'strength of weak ties' (the people who know the people you know, who can expand your connections and lead to important new relationships whose value you cannot anticipate) Listen and help (show you care, and that you can offer something, before you try to sell anything) Never lie, and don't tolerate bullshit from others Understand that every conversation is an implicit contract (know what the other person wants from a conversation, and be clear about what you want) Follow through and follow up (never break a promise or procrastinate) Learn to tell stories well Prune your networks Manage your networks (move relationships with the most important contacts forward first) Join the Club: Join at least a few organizations that interest and inspire you. As a paid member you will be privy to regular communications from the organization -- possibly including the first word on participation, volunteer and job opportunities. If you do participate actively, you may find yourself becoming even more "in the loop" (or if not, maybe it's not the right organization for you). Your membership and participation is of great importance to the organizations you support, even if it's hard to see. Here are some environmental and peace organizations across Canada to consider. Do Your Research: If you find an opportunity that interests you, even if you don't get an interview consider how you can position yourself to know more about them and meet with people in the organization so that the next time they post an opportunity, you'll have an inside track. And also research other organizations that do similar work and make contacts with them so that you're positioned in advance if similar opportunities come up with them. Participate: Volunteer< /a> or attend events of organizations you'd like to work for. But don't take on tasks you dislike or can't do, don't promise what you can't deliver, and don't overcommit. Do such a great volunteer job that when paid work arises they'll see no point in posting the opportunity widely. But first, give some thought to what kinds of roles you're looking for, and why. Other than one-time help at events, applying for a volunteer position should be given the same degree of thought as applying for paid work. Do a little research, do some planning, and have a resume at hand (and a cover letter, if it's a competitive posting). Even if you don't need a cover letter, writing one can help you think about your interests and competencies. It's all about matchmaking -- understanding your own needs and wants, and those of the organization. And communicating them effectively. To do less can be a waste of both your time and the organization's. Rapid volunteer turnover (or unreliability) can be a real burden -- it's the main reason why some organizations no longer seek volunteers (or may need to be convinced that you're worth investing time in). So don't take it lightly. Reduce Your Need to Work: If you live simply, economically and sustainably, and focus your life and activities on things that really matter to you, you may find your salary needs drop substantially, which means you will have a greater choice of job and volunteer opportunities to choose from, and the choice of what to do might become less urgent and more obvious to you. You might even find you don't need to work at all. Increase Your Knowledge and Expertise: Learn more about the issues and questions that the organizations you'd be interested in working for are facing, and about some of the possible answers to those questions. For example, you might bone up on fundraising techniques, writing grant proposals, sustainability, brownfield< /a> development, climate change, bioregionalism, or improve your communications skills. And learn about what is strategically important to such organizations, so you can advise them on 'big picture' issues. Create Your Own Job: Find a need and fill it with your own Natural Enterprise. Know What Makes You Happy, Who You Are and What You're Good At: Magic happens at the intersections of needs, passions and competencies -- yours, and potential employers' and customers'. Be Innovative: Most people and organizations don't know what's really needed, or how to meet these needs creatively, economically or differently. Come up with some new ideas, talk them up, and work with others to get things you really care about implemented. Chances are if you get associated with such successes, your talent will not go unnoticed and new career opportunities will open up.

Secretly piggybacking on downloaded Internet software, spyware transmits information about computer usage and generates pop-up advertisements and other annoyances. It often is difficult to uninstall.

HOWTO solve identity theft: make banks

HOWTO solve identity theft: make banks
responsible 04/15/2005 11:59 AM
Cory Doctorow: Bruce Schneier's op-ed on CNet about identity theft talks about why "two-factor" authentication (e.g. having to enter a password and a number that you read off of a little keychain fob) is useful for lots of things, but not for preventing identity theft. He goes on to explain how to practically solve identity theft through new liability measures:

Criminals impersonate legitimate users to financial intuitions. That means that any solution can't involve the account holders. That leaves only one reasonable answer: Financial intuitions need to be liable for fraudulent transactions.

They need to be liable for sending erroneous information to credit bureaus based on fraudulent transactions. They can't say that the user must keep his password secure or his machine virus-free. They can't require the user to monitor his accounts for fraudulent activity, or his credit reports for fraudulently obtained credit cards.

Those aren't reasonable requirements for most users. The bank must be made responsible, regardless of what the user does.

If you think this won't work, look at credit cards. Credit card companies are liable for all but the first $50 of fraudulent transactions. They're not hurting for business; and they're not drowning in fraud, either. They've developed and fielded an array of security technologies designed to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions. And they've pushed most of the actual costs onto the merchants.

Americans are smarter than that, Mr. President. We can handle tough questions in all their complexity.
