Extractions: As more and more libraries begin in-house Internet training for their patrons, one of the questions I am often asked is what kind of projector we use at my Library System. And of course, everyone always needs to know the associated costs, so I am happy to report that if you are in the market for just such an item, Projector Central will soon be fully operational to help with all of your projector needs. The core of the site is going to be a database that will include every model currently on the market. Luckily, users will be able to sort all of this data by price, resolution, ANSI Lumen rating, weight, and "application requirements" (parameters set by the user such as room size, screen size, light level, and more). A separate Research Center will provide product reviews and ratings submitted by users, a library for background information (with a buyer's guide and articles among other things), a calendar of events, and an industry directory. Special forums will support requests for help with technical problems, updates posted by vendors, or inquiries about personal experiences with a specific vendor. If you find something you like, you can Register to use the Marketplace to solicit competitive quotes that are sent to your private email address at this site (after that Projector Central removes itself from the process and you deal directly with the vendor). The site will also provide a dealer locator, host classified ads for used equipment, and list links to additional sites of interest. The service is completely free to buyers, while different levels of fees are charged to sellers.
Part 1 - Could Y2K Failures Bring Us Martial Law? The Administration Claims Victory over y2k bug Here Here's a civics lesson onExecutive Orders! Biblebased ministry dealing with current events, the New http://www.ericbarger.com/Martial_Law_part_1.htm
Extractions: Take A Stand! O N L I N E "Discerning the Times in the Light of the Word" www.ericbarger.com Could Y2K Failures Bring us Martial Law - Part 1 of 2 - by E ric B arger Andrew Gause, Y2K action chairman for the city of Hawthorne, NJ and author of Y2K Chaos says: "I really cannot believe the scope that he (Clinton) has gone to to insure that the president (whoever that might be at the time) had absolute authority up to seizing private property. When you look at the scope of Executive Orders that Mr. Clinton has put into place I think he’s really planning that the President have the power to deal with the situation (Y2K) in the most dictatorial fashion imaginable." If you believe Mr. Gause is exaggerating then read on. without without any constraints from Congress. In fact, EO’s become law unless they are revoked by Congress. Knowing that Bill Clinton has expressed that he would not be a "lame duck" leader it appears that he intends to legislate his will with the use Executive Orders. Depending on your political persuasion you may not view that as all bad - until you find out what the Clinton EO’s contain. Even died-in-the-wool liberals would find many of Clinton’s EO’s and PDD’s troubling and puzzling if not down right hair-raising. The concern is multiplied times over when one adds up what the sum total effect of these EO’s and PDD’s. First of all, Executive Order 13107 decrees that human rights descend not from God but from worldly governmental authorities - with the ultimate authority represented by the United Nations. From all we see, it seems that the UN believes people have the right to dissent, unless it is dissent against the United Nations. Now with that as the basis of his logic, consider that all things terrifying, socialistic and unconstitutional are possible, at least in the mind of globalist Bill Clinton.

FISSEA Newsletter - Oct. 1999 training and awareness for y2k security related by populating it with current eventsand appropriate Sergeants carried alreadyprepared lesson plans in their http://csrc.nist.gov/organizations/fissea/newsletters/1999/news10-99.html
Extractions: IN THIS ISSUE We have all been extremely busy since our last issue went out, especially as the end of the fiscal and calendar years approached. The end of the fiscal year brought opportunities to complete current activities in the training area, and for planning (and budgets!) The end of the calendar year closes out a millennium (how many times do you plan to do that?!), and brings along the baggage associated with Y2K activities. In addition to normal training and awareness activities, many of us have been able to influence additional training and awareness for Y2K security related issues, and for critical infrastructure protection initiatives. AWARENESS becomes the watchword now as the century comes to a close and we begin anew with year 2000. Our objective should be to recognize and take action whenever a new opportunity arises where we can be effective with computer/cyber security and information protection awareness messages. Personally, I've been so swamped with work relating to new policy and guidance issuance, participating in the training initiative I mentioned in the last newsletter, and overseeing the Department's computer incident response team (DOE/CIAC) that there's hardly time to do anything else, and meetings usually eat up the rest of the time available.
