Stalking the Bogeyman
  This time last year I was plotting to kill a man. I was going to walk up to him, reintroduce myself and then blow his balls off. I was going to watch him writhe like a poisoned cockroach for a few seconds, then kick him onto his stomach and put three bullets in the back of his head. This time last year I had a gun, and a silencer, and a plan. I had staked out the man's tract home in Broomfield -- the gray, two-story one with the maroon trim and the American flag hanging above the doorstep. I had followed him to and from his job as an electrical engineer. I was confident I would get away with murder, because there was nothing in recent history to connect me to him. Homicide investigators look for motive, and mine was buried 25 years in the past.

The man I was going to kill was the one who raped me in 1978, when I was seven years old

Card Seem at Risk? Try a Stunt Double. What if there was a way to make purchases online without any danger of card numbers falling into the wrong hands? Think of it as the stunt-double approach to online shopping. By Jennifer Bayot. [New York Times: Technology]

The idea of a temporary number is a bullet proof solution to the problem. Combine it with a web site to activate, cancel used up numbers and request new ones and you have a hit on their hands. Systems like this are already in place, they are not widely used because the credit card companies have little incentive to stop fraud (they don't pay, they have insurance), neither do card holders in civilized places (they don't pay either) and the Card Not Present commerce site have little power to implement it, though they do pay... a lot...
