Russian Computer Programmer Freed
http://www.salon.com/tech/wire/2001/08/06/dimitry/index.html
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP)- A Russian computer programmer accused of circumventing
copyright protections
on electronic-book software was released on $50,000 bond Monday and
ordered to stay in California.
With protesters gathered outside the courthouse, Dmitry Sklyarov made
his first court appearance
here since being arrested July 16 and charged with violating the 1998
Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
Prosecutors and defense attorney Joseph Burton agreed on the bond conditions.
The bond was paid by
Sklyarov's company, and he was turned over to the custody of a Russian-American
software engineer
who lives in Cupertino and volunteered to help.
Sklyarov, 26, is thought to be one of the first people to face criminal
prosecution under the Digital Millennium
Copyright Act, and his case has generated international protests. He
faces five years in prison and a $500,000 fine.
Sklyarov's supporters say there is no evidence anyone has used his program
to violate copyrights on
electronic books. Adobe dropped its support of the case on July
23.
Protesters outside the court cheered Sklyarov's release but said the
entire case should be dropped.
"How do we enforce American law on Russians
when what he did is legal in Russia?"
said Marc Perkel ( publisher of bartcop.com )
a systems administrator for the
Electronic Frontier Foundation, an Internet civil-liberties organization
backing Sklyarov.
"If an Adobe employee was arrested in Russia ... we would be on nuclear alert."

Condit has alibi, so no need to investigate
An undiagnosed heart condition contributed to the death of Lori

Associate Medical Examiner Michael Berkland released the cause
of death Monday,
two weeks after Klausutis' body was found in Scarborough's office
"The manner of death is an accident," Berkland said.

President
Is on Vacation, Mostly Not Taking It Easy
Or, "Please. Mr Rove, can I perform Monica on the Idiot Smirk?"
by Katherine Q. Seelye
CRAWFORD, Tex. — President Bush may be on
vacation, but it's work, work, work.
The Middle East. Stem-cell research. Global
warming. Heavy topics all, to which the president
is diligently applying himself, as the
rest of the country kicks back.
Stop it!
For Mr. Bush, this is a "working vacation,"
in which he will work to overhaul his image and
send some deliberate signals. He is on
vacation, yes, but not from work. Just from Washington.
Horseshit!
Bush doesn't even work when he's working.
Why is the Whore Times trying to peddle this lie?
This isn't journalism.
Who wrote this? Karen Hughes? Uncle Dick? Ari Fliesher?
This is horseshit!
Katherine Q. Seelye just won a trip up to
the front of the plane!
(Is it Sellye? Or does she give it away?)
Kathy knows how the game is played.
Swear to Koresh - bartcop.com has more credibility
than The New York Whore Times.
The Old Grey Lady is just an aging slut with sagging breasts
that nobody wants anymore.
Jesus, if I was president, I wouldn't allow self-serving lies
like that to go out.
I'd be too afraid people would hurt themselves laughing.
It reads like a great parody from TheOnion.com
Bob Dylan said it best: The Times, they are a-changing.
Printing that crap to prop up an unelected fraud?
Smirk has a shorter attention span than I do.
He's not working on shit.
He's playing Nintendo with Jenna's probation officer.
...by the way, I wonder what Kathy's nickname is?

GARDEN CITY - A rural Garden City man died Saturday after an accident
while picking sweet corn.
Eugene Kamas, 69, was picking sweet corn near his home around 6:30

Subject: Bush Vs Talk
Yo BC,
As someone who is ever the conspiracy theorist,
let me inject this into the Bush Vs Talk Magazine issue:
Talk was the first major publication to do a
serious article on G.W. and his presidential campaign, way
back in their first issue. It was pretty
much an honest profile of Bush, so needless to say, it wasn't the
glowing puff-piece that he must have been hoping
for. This was the article that reported Bush mocking
the woman that was sentenced to death row.
Now, the one characteristic of the Bush family
that comes through loud and clear is that,like the Corleones,
they always pay thier debts, and they never forget
an insult. It's fairly obvious that Bush has been very hands-off
in his parenting style, so the fact that his
daughters were mocked probably didn't do that much to hurt him.
BUT, it does give him the chance to get back
at Talk and Tina Brown for their initial article about his campaign.
The fact that he can do it AND make Talk look
like the bad guy in the process is typical Bush spin.
Why do you think the press corps is acting like
a press corpse? They, and more importantly, their editors,
know that you don't piss off Bush if you want
to keep working. From what Molly Ivans has said in print,
that's a lesson that was learned in Texas very
quickly.

Subject: The Fall of Michael Corleone
The way I see it, he was fallen from the beginning.
Kind of a Catholic original sin thing, or perhaps even one
of those goofy Calvinist "God just didn't feel
like choosing you" things, in the way he seems, to me, doomed.
Consider just about every scene with Michael and
Kay -- he tells a big lie.
'Our family will be completely legit in 5 years',
'I wasn't married in Sicily', 'I didn't have Fredo killed'
(I think he said that in III, which I haven't
watched as much as the other two,) etc.
I thought he was sincere about that.
He was still a good boy then, and I think he meant it.
Look at the wedding scene in 'The Godfather' in
that context when he told her that he was different
than the rest of his family. He most likely was
lying to himself as well, but growing up in that family,
with those brothers, he didn't have a chance.
The scenes in the hospital, the meeting afterwards,
and at Louis' restaurant was how it happened
to have played out, but suppose that the Corleone
enemies were weaker or less competent
Let me tell you about something Mrs. BartCop noticed.
At the hospital, right after they scared the shooters away, the baker
tried to light a cigarette
but he was shaking so damn bad Michael had to grab the cigarette lighter
and light it for him.
Then Michael looked down at his own hands and realized he wasn't
nervous
- his hands weren't shaking.
She says that was the moment he realized he had to take over.
--- suppose there was no assassination attempt
on Don Vito, suppose Sonny was still alive....
At Vito's death, when Sonny would finally take
over as Don, do you really think that Michael
would sit still in his cushy job at the bank
as his brother runs the organization into the ground???
I'd have a hard time believing that outcome.
As the only competent Corleone son,
he would have ended up as Don sooner or later,
one way or another.
BTW -- my favorite scenes are in "Part 2", any
of the scenes with Michael and Fredo.
The expression on his face when Fredo lets it
slip that he knew Johnny Ola for a long time,
the "You're nothing to me now" scene...
"Mikey ..."
Regards,
Chris O.
Oh, I get chills just talking about it.
My favorite scene in II was after he told Neri,
"As long as my mother is alive, I don't want
anything to happen to my brother."
Then, at Mom's funeral, he gave Fredo a long, brotherly hug, and it
made you wonder
if Michael was going to soften and allow Fredo back in the family,
but instead,
he looked up at Neri with eyes colder than a Republican's heart and
nodded.
Koresh, that's cold.
Brian Wilson
I was never much of a Beach Boys fan.
Oh, sure, they had some little ditties that were fun to goof on,
Help
Mr, Rhonda was my
favorite tune of theirs when I was a kid. Those silly "I wanna
surf" songs didn't make much sense
to a boy growing up in ...Denver, and they really had a monster
hit on their hands with Good Vibrations,
but I always wondered what people meant by the "genius" of Brian
Wilson.
Even the Beatles said they were tying to imitate Pet Sounds
when they did Revolver,
which I couldn't understand, but there's a lot I don't understand.
Of course, Ol' Brian's mental train jumped the track for a decade
or so.
They say he sat in a sandbox for twelve years and the poor guy
looks like a severe stroke victim
when he talks and performs, but a month or two back he was on
Letterman and he blew me away.
He did an old song with Hootie and Matt Sweet called Sail
on, Sailor from 1973.
I can't explain what the genius is in that song, but it's there.
When watching him perform this song, I kept thinking of a vast
canvas and how
only Brian Wilson could've chosen these particular notes to make
this song soar.
I was punching out an issue of bartcop.com
at the time, and (I tape everything)
when I went to rewind the tape, I almost erased the song, but
the chorus kept nagging
at me so I played it a few times in a row and suddenly the clouds
parted and I became
a big Brian Wilson fan - go figure.
Why do I bring this up?
Letterman is re-running the show tonight.
So - after we watch Murder
in Small Town X, we'll catch Gary Busey getting
violent with Robin on the Howard
Stern Show (Rude Rich told me he got Robin on
the floor and
started "dry humping" her. It's my educated guess Robin
doesn't take shit from anybody, much less
a born-again bunghole who head-butted a curb after he fell off
his motorcycle. Look for Robin to get in
a few shots to Busey's head, which will probably hurt worse than
the curb. Then I'll catch the rerun of
Sail on, Sailor on Dave,
and if I'm still awake I might catch Kathy Griffin on Bill Maher.

Ann Coulter was introduced as a "best-selling

But the only book she ever wrote was a
nasty-ass lie about Clinton's cock.
Anybody can write a nasty lie story

Nasty-ass anti-Clinton books always go to number one, even when

Bush "insane with rage" over talk Magazine
President Weak & Stupid — furious over
a photo spread in the new issue of Talk Magazine
that depicts his two daughters as jailbirds
— has imposed a news blackout on any journalist
working for Talk, The Washington
Whore Post reported last night.
Communications and Stategery Director Dan
Bartlett called the magazine's parody
"disrespectful" and said editor Tina Brown's
Talk
"had openly opposed and even
mocked the First Family's desire to keep
the lives of their daughters private."
Private?
How do you do that when the teen tramps are falling down drunk
in public?
He served notice that the White House would not cooperate with anyone writing for Talk.
"Those news organizations that are so brazen in
their disrespect, we will not participate with,"
Bartlett said. "It's unfortunate for those
respected journalists who decide to work for Talk magazine."
The magazine doesn't name Jenna and Barbara
Bush, who have been cited for underage drinking,
but uses two partying models along with
a George Bush look-alike.
Talk editorial director Maer Roshan told
The Washington Whore Post the piece was "in good fun.
... people should have a better sense
of humor about it, especially in the administration."
For any other administration, this would be a hueueueueuge
miscalculation.
You don't take on people who buy their ink by the barrel.
Did Clinton ever ban journalists from the White House?
No.
He certainly should have, but he didn't because it's a fight
you can't win.
If reporters had any intergrity, (should I even finish this sentence?)
they'd ALL consider themselves banned,
to show solidarity with Talk, because this makes
the point that everyone BUT Talk is cooperating with
Karl Rove, being the nice obedient lapdogs that Mr. Rove likes.

Subject: Nader
Ralph Nader? This was never about Ralph Nader.
Every Nader voter I know was
casting a vote against Al Gore. Fifteen years
ago I worked briefly for CLEC,
the AFL-CIO sponsored Citizen Labor Energy Coalition.
At one of our pep talks
I asked a honcho from DC if CLEC would endorse
Al Gore for President
(we had been discussing the likelihood of CLEC
endorsing a presidential candidate).
The honcho made a face and said, "We would never
endorse a pseudo Democrat
like Al Gore." Everyone in that room was
a party activist, but none of us considered
the then right to life senator from Tennessee
to be anything but a stealth Republican.
The Democratic Leadership Council has exerted
enormous influence over the
party for more than a decade now, and Al Gore
was their handpicked candidate.
As one who toiled for the party all my life and
never once flaked out at election time,
for me, enough was enough. I know MY vote here
in Minnesota didn't cost Al Gore
the election, and I sleep OK at night knowing
that I stood up to the Republican bastards
at the DLC who have stolen my party and given
it over to the big corporations.
If the DLC had its way, both U.S. Senators
from Minnesota would get booted to
make room for still more pro-big business Democrats.
Just because Al Gore is the
enemy of my enemy does not make him my friend,
or a Democrat. I held my nose
and voted for moderates like Jimmy Carter
and Bill Clinton, but there comes a time
when you can't shut out the stench of big business
that permeates the DLC and
today's Democratic party. If the election
was held again tomorrow, I'd vote for
Nader again in a heartbeat. Maybe the
Republicans can live with candidates chosen
by the party elites, but the heart of the Democratic
party has been cut out by the
DLC bastards who want the Democrats to become
the Republican Lite party.
Mark
Mark, I notice the Nader people always use the same words when they
write.
Whose words are those? They can't be your words,
because all the people who wrote before you used them, too.
I don't understand your glee about the Democrats losing this election.
I sense a religious fervor in your blocking of Gore.
You're so proud that you stopped Gore, and what did we get instead?
Maybe you stopped the pickpocket dead in his tracks,
but the child molester just drove away with a school bus full of kids.
...and you're proud to do it again in 2004?

Subject: Bush IQ report is a hoax
Bartcop,
The Bush IQ story is marvelously easy to believe,
but it's a hoax.
There's no such body as the Lovenstein Institute,
no Swanson/Crain IQ test,
and no way to determine IQ without giving someone
a multi-hour IQ test.
(Even then, it's an iffy concept.)
ha ha
That's crazy talk.
I can tell Bush is a moron from 1500 miles away.
Besides, there's no way that Bush has an IQ as high as 91.
Ed
See?
You can tell, too.
http://www.snopes2.com/inboxer/hoaxes/presiq.htm
Look, you don't have to believe the story.
I don't care if there's no Lovenstein or no Swanson.
The numbers look right to me.
So, Ellen Degeneres is back.
She has a new show on CBS coming up - and she's gay again.
I thought she learned that lesson - I guess not.
Why can't she do a show about comedy, instead?
Wouldn't she do her cause a greater service by being funny?
If she was funny, more people would like her, and they might
even get
the idea that you can like gay people and still go to Heaven,
but nooooo.
Oh, well, it can't possibly be as bad as Bob Patterson starring
Jason Alexander.
Nothing could be as bad as that show looks.
The comedy tag line that's designed to make everyone fall in love?
"I'm Bob Patterson here to tell you there's
nothing
between you and your goals ...except
you ...and your goals."
Oh - my sides hurt from laughing too hard.
Koresh, you know how all those SNL movies seem funny in the ads,
but then when you get to the theater, those were the only funny
bits?
The ads aren't even funny for Bob Patterson.
...and I'm not sure how this is related, except it's a show biz
story,
but did you see the Behind the Scenes with Pat Benatar?
You younger kids may not know, but Pat Benatar used to be a hot
babe.
Those short little skirts, slit up the side, and that "I am too old enough" pout she had?
In the show, they told how she was upset with her record company
for giving her a sexy image.
The record exec said, "You mean you
think they're buying your voice?"
Isn't that sad?
She has no clue what she's selling.
So on album 5 or so, she opted for the "I'm a good mother" image,
...and she never sold another record and her career went wherever
Joe Piscopo's career went.
Why do Britney Spears, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez and Shania
Twain sell gazillions of records?
Because they have great voices?

Once a gateway to news on the Busch Twins, Drudge

Or will she follow Mom & Grandma's advice and terminate the pregnancy?

2. M&M is speech - so no gov't
3. reproduction begins with intercourse...once
a baby is created, it is a separate entity

4. I ain't sure what the question means,

5. pornography is in the eye of the beholder,

On women's rights, you're a bigger government conservative
On liquor, I was trying to get you to say the religiously insane

On porn, you're a liberal
On the internet, you're a liberal

We started talking nuts and bolts and he said he needed editorial
control.
I protested, but he said it was a must since we were using

Before you call me whore, (Pipecover, try to buy the "walk before

Let me play whitey's game until the hammer gets bigger, ...too
big to ignore.
Sidebar:
I played this perfectly.
So, I tell him since I lost that one, I must be allowed
the occasional on-air shot of Chinaco.
He said, "No, no way, that's illegal.
That's a deal-killer - so don't bring it up again."
I hung up on him.
He called back and I told him like I told Scary Perry:
"Hey, I'm happy now. Don't
dangle 'maybe happy' in front of me - I won't bite.
You're asking me to take my foot
off second base..."
...and then, just for effect, ...I hung up again.
ha ha
He called back a third time, says this:
"For legal reasons, I -have-
to be the one with editorial control,
but I'll give you my word you'll
have a say in how things are run."
...and I'm like,
"...and the Chinaco?"
Mr. Radio says, "You can have your Chinaco, but you can't get out of control."
Woo Hoo!
We made a deal!
Of course, it's a no-money deal, and some people might think that's a bad thing.
The good news here is that I'm absolutely free and untethered.
No network suits to "help" produce the show.
No rules, no lawyers to outwit, no money, no problems.
I can say anything I want - and so can you if you

No money is everything.
I held out for "Let BartCop be BartCop" and won.
We can be as outrageous as we wanna be, ...but, ...of course,
we'll stick with the same dignified approach we use right here
