When these machines detect the keyword, they do not actually prevent the packet containing the keyword from passing through the main router (this would be horribly complicated to achieve and still allow the router to run at the necessary speed). Instead, these subsiduary machines generate a series of TCP reset packets, which are sent to each end of the connection. When the resets arrive, the end-points assume they are genuine requests from the other end to close the connection — and obey. Hence the censorship occurs. emmineb Fri, 30 Jun 2006 13:54:30 GMT http://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/works/1937/guerrilla-warfare/ch05.htm Four points must be considered under this subject. These are: How are guerrilla bands formed? How are guerrilla bands organized? What are the methods of arming guerrilla bands? What elements constitute a guerrilla band? These are all questions pertaining to the organization armed guerrilla units; they are questions which those who had no experience in guerilla hostilities do not understand and on which they can arrive at no sound decisions; indeed, they would not know in what manner to begin. emmineb Mon, 11 Jun 2007 18:30:45 GMT http://www.economist.com/world/displaystory.cfm?story_id=6850080 see also openneyinitiative.net on the great firewall of china emmineb Fri, 02 Jun 2006 07:33:34 GMT http://www.boingboing.net/2007/01/27/google_founder_regre.html Google founder Sergey Brin told an interviewer that censoring China's search-results at the behest of the totalitarian government in Beijing was a "net negative" for Google. Before this, Google's position on China was the a kind of Orwellian doublespeak: "We have to censor China because they have lots of money and we can't have any without participating in censorship" and "If we censor China but tell Chinese people when they're being censored, they'll clamor for democracy." (Um... yeah... What about if you just send uncensored web-results to China about democracy? Wouldn't that aid the cause of democracy more?) emmineb Sun, 28 Jan 2007 11:16:52 GMT http://www.belisarius.com/modern_business_strategy/richards/chi_and_cheng/boyd_chi.htm Sun-Tzu talks about a cheng and ch'i maneuver as a basis to throw strength against weakness. Now the question is, what is a cheng and what is a ch'i. You might even be able to explain it better than I can, but let me give you an idea. How many people here saw the movie Patton? If you recall in one portion of that movie--I think he was up before the American flag, I do not remember exactly when--he made the comment to the effect "What you want to do is you want to hold them by the nose and kick them in the ass." Everybody said, "Ha, ha, funny." That was a very important statement he made because it really represents in a sense a cheng and a ch'i. The hold by the nose to get his attention and then the undisclosed movement to the rear in order to pull him apar emmineb Sat, 29 Dec 2007 16:08:38 GMT http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://brian.hoffert.faculty.noctrl.edu/TEACHING/Mao.Dazibao.jpg&imgrefurl=http://brian.hoffert.faculty.noctrl.edu/TEACHING/ToLive.htm&h=195&w=300&sz=22&hl=en&start=1&tbnid=kPxH7Hzs5A5M8M:&tbnh=75&tbnw=116&prev=/images%3Fq%3DNie%2BYuanzi%2B%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DG Big-character posters (Traditional Chinese 大字報, Simplified Chinese 大字报, pinyin dàzìbào, literally "big-character journal") are handwritten, wall-mounted posters using large-sized Chinese characters, used as a means of protest, propaganda, and popular communication. They have been used in China since imperial times, but became more common when literacy rates rose after the 1911 revolution. They have also incorporated limited-circulation newspapers, excerpted press articles, and pamphlets intended for public display. emmineb Thu, 19 Oct 2006 01:03:08 GMT http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200610/kaplan-korea The furor over Kim Jong Il’s missile tests and nuclear brinksmanship obscures the real threat: the prospect of North Korea’s catastrophic collapse.
