- "Spam annoys us all, but it threatens the very survival of Web hosting companies. Hosting a spammer can affect the performance of your infrastructure and your other customers. Even worse, it can put your block of IP addresses on the known-spammer lists, which in turn could shut down your entire operation by causing you to unwittingly violate your own hosting service or ISP's Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)."

- Steve Fesenmaier writes "One of the best films ever made about books, libraries, and authors is THE STONE READER. The DVD of the film is now available from Barnes and Noble for only $39.95 - four disks with complete film and much more footage. Also, the original novel, THE STONES OF SUMMER, is being re-published this month. New Yorker Films is distributing the film to non-theatrical venues - like libraries, colleges, English courses. |

- Darci Chapman writes "from the Eugene Oregon Daily Emerald: 'The Orbis Cascade Alliance is a consortium with 27 member libraries throughout the Northwest. Summit combines the catalogues of these libraries over the Web for students to search for and borrow items that are unavailable at their campus libraries. The Summit catalogue provides access to twice as many items than the University offered with access only to the Orbis catalogue. The books usually arrive within two or three days after students order them, Helmer said. |

The National Hi-Tech Crime Unit, or NHTCU, has started working with anti-virus firms to identify patterns in the source code of the most damaging Internet worms and virus programs to determine whether they are the work of organized subversive groups or crime syndicates. The hope is that buried somewhere in the lines of code will be clues to the author's identity,... |

- I'm both relieved that I'm getting moving out of the city, and not even remotely surprised.Federal law enforcement officials confirm that the FBI planted the listening devices found Tuesday in the offices of Philadelphia's mayor.However, they're refusing to comment on whether Mayor John Street is a target of an investigation or, if there is such an investigation, to provide any details about the nature of the probe.Nothing would make me happier than to see John Street and his staff get sent to the big house. He's smarmy and annoying, and he really hasn't done much for this city since taking office. |

- A week old but still important: this lengthy SecurityFocus piece by Mark Rasch examines the FBI's use of obscure Patriot Act provisions to demand journalists' notes, apparently in violation of DoJ procedures . Read this, and remember that we are all journalists . There are really only three reasons the government would invoke the ISP statute against journalists. All of these possibilities are frightening in their implications. |

- Philly Bug Planted By FBI Federal law enforcement officials on Wednesday confirmed that listening devices found in the offices of Mayor John F. Street were planted by the FBI -- a discovery that touched off a political furor just weeks before Election Day. Three federal law enforcement officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, acknowledged that the FBI was responsible for the bug, but refused to comment on whether the Democratic mayor is a target of an investigation or to provide any details about the nature of the probe. hat tip SJ |
