Carpenter thought he was making progress. When he uncovered the Titan Rain routers in Guangdong, he carefully installed a homemade bugging code in the primary router's software. It sent him an e-mail alert at an anonymous Yahoo! account every time the gang made a move on the Net. Within two weeks, his Yahoo! account was filled with almost 23,000 messages, one for each connection the Titan Rain router made in its quest for files. He estimates there were six to 10 workstations behind each of the three routers, staffed around the clock. The gang stashed its stolen...
...Firouz does not believe the pullout will boost Israel's security. "There'll be Palestinian gang-wars over the evacuated territory. The Israelis will then return to Gaza."

...lyric the Royal Rooters used to sing to rouse the crowd back at the turn of the last century. Sox management unearthed the tune, and the story behind it, a year or two ago, and Dr. Charles-that?s Charles Steinberg, the magician of community relations for the Henry/Lucchino gang, the wizard behind the wonderful ring-presentation festivities at Fenway?s Opening Day-arranged for the Boston band Dropkick Murphys to make a new recording. It?s pretty good, but . . . I just don?t know. ?Tessie? belongs to everyone in the Nation, anyone with the ninety-nine cents to download...
