actually the ping times changed, and some relays changed their port exposure to the Internet. there is more and more less and less 'presence' of certain relays as they become hardened against port attacks by not showing up on pings.
often a traceroute only show relays that respond, and in toughened intranets the path stops at the secured firewall.
and this has accelerated after 911.
IMHO the reason why servers are being toughened like that is not really to be immune from cyberterrorists, but to not show up on Big Brother's radar.
it's assumed that they exchange more encrypted traffic via the secured relay.
Big Brother can only analyze the plaintext traffic.

They need to subsidise farming, but not the cattle industry which will only serve to challenge Japanese thinness!
Posted in: After the war, the generation that rebuilt Japan rose above hunger, filling their bellies on whatever was at hand; when not working they smoked like chimneys — and yet they accomplished vast enterprises and achieved the world's longest life expectancy into the bargain.

If Russia can fill the Japanese spirit with its panentheism and revitalise the arugamama then Japan still has hope!
Posted in: When I see stacks of Russian literature on display at bookstores, I am overwhelmed by a feeling of how far we've come.

The ainu have lost both culture and language due to the Asian sense of shame!
Posted in: That's why I think it's a good thing that Japan lost World War II. If Japan had won, so many others would have lost their language and culture.

because they make great cameras and game machines.
my old iMike 560 which used the iDen network, now just works as a clock and database. it has all my most called phonebook in it.
my new cellphone is a BlackBerry Pearl 8130. Most definitely when I upgrade to a new cellphone in 2.5 years it will become a camera and addressbook for both names, addresses & phone numbers and names and email addresses of my friends.

One day of perspiration by your GF/wife/mistress/lover, and if you cannot tolerate it, then you are not human at all.
Napoleon was wise to ask his mistress, "Will you desist from bathing?" when returning home from battle.
For nothing beats the scent of a woman!

Japan knows that light pollution has obliterated viewing of the constellations for some time now.
Is it any wonder tourism elsewhere has gone up?
So I agree: today, Tanabata with LEDs is Christmas in July.

Having noted the cannabis and cocaine she was in possession of, can we tell that being 30 has not wised her up to her sad life as a drug abuser who got into porn, not just to buy clothes but to feed her addiction.
Tho, at 30 she still has a thin body and boyish figure which would endear her to all the Asahi Miura fans in Japan, which she would not have if she retired and married the director.

probably she complained about getting stuck in the door of the train, trying to flee.
i suspect depression and psychosis. she attacked vulnerable women, not even one man.
there is more to this than meets the eye.

actually, she was competing with legitimate porn sales without giving the government their tax cut of profits, which even photomagazines that sell zines filled with images of clothed girls under 16 pay.
that she was profiting from selling copies of images of herself, to which she owned copyright was "illegal" because she cut both government and gravure publishing houses out of the profit.
this shows that a person can be penalized for profiting from her sales of her image without registering copyright and allowing big business and government a cut of the profits.
that's why it is a crime; she was making more money than she would have had she signed a contract with a publishing company.
If she just pays 50000 Yen on her 1 million yen profit, I am sure the government will let her keep the rest. Now this way, she will lose all of it.
