Verichip Update 4


Here's your Verichip Update.

Before we get going, I want to let you in on
an awesome web site that has tons and tons of
great fre e audio files on end times prophecy and
every other subject you can imagine...
Go to:
http://server.firefighters.org/
(Search under "Bible Studies" and see
the hundreds and hundreds of messages on
various subjects.)

Here are some you may enjoy:

After the tsunami disaster, many are blaming God.
Here's a great audio recording of a speech
from someone named A.E. Wilder Smith
called "Why does God allow suffering"
http://server.firefighters.org/wilder-smith/35023.mp3

And one from someone named Jon Courson, called
"Where Was God"
http://server.firefighters.org/catalog/1999-2000/01299.mp3

Here's another good one by a guy named Chuch Smith
called, "How Long Til The End"

For those that have some unanswered questions
about God and Christianity, listen to this:

That should keep you busy for a while!

I almost forgot...Digital Angel (Verichip creator) conducted a
conference call and live webcast today, (January
10, 2005,) at 11:00 a.m. EST to discuss the
Company's expectations for fiscal year 2005.

I listened to it and it was pretty boring.
Not much mention about the actual Verichip,
mostly info about the company Digital Angel and
their projected revenue for 2005 and why.

Here are some of the highlights of the call:

They talked about:

1. pet business revenues (chipping pets)
2. a new bio-thermo chip that will be introduced
in the spring of 2005 (interesting)
3. 2005 Verichip sales forcast at one million
dollars
4. a US Nat'l id program for cattle (thought
that was already in effect)
5. the use of the Verichip in the tsunami
disaster area (very little mentioned about this.
Digital Angel denies being involved in the promotion
of the Verichip being used to chip bodies but
admits that there were rumors of their distributors
using it.
6. some confused guy at the end got on the call and
complained that his shares haven't been converted (?)

That's about it. If you want to listen to it, it's
available here until 4/05:

Here's some other info you may enjoy:

**************************************************

-4,000 microchips were used for the tsunami victims

TOT Public Co., offered 4,000 pieces of microchips
which will be implanted in the bodies of tsunami
victims and help in collecting personal information
of the victims.

Mr. Pirapan Soonthornsarathoon, the TOT's Senior
Executive Vice President, said his office had
supplied 4,000 microchips to the Ministry of
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) which
would be implanted in the tsunami victims' bodies,
and had decided to assist in containing bio-data o
each individual.

He said TOT had also installed a video conference
system which would be used in helping survivors
from the massive tsunami waves, and in arranging
meetings by government officials and the cabinet.


*****************************************************
As many as 2,000 people in the world are walking
around with Verichips under their skin. Each
VeriChip user carries a card explaining how to use
the technology. Designated persons must submit their
own ID numbers to Applied Digital before they can
obtain the user data from a company database.

Silverman (CEO) said he is confident the system is
secure. He said even if someone stole one of the
scanners, the thief would need a user ID to access the
data.

****************************************

-There's something known as the Personal Identity
Verification Project that the President Bush is
starting. This stemmed from a homeland security-related
presidential directive and is being managed by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST),
a Commerce Department agency with offices in
Gaithersburg.

In his Aug. 27 directive, President Bush said that "wide variations in the quality and security
of forms of identification used to gain access to
secure federal and other facilities where there is
potential for terrorist attacks need to be eliminated."

Bush called for the development of "secure and reliable
forms of identification" for federal workers and
contract employees. (No, I don't think he's the
anti-chirst)

To that end, federal officials want to replace the
existing piecemeal system of agency-level ID cards
with " smart cards" that are hard to counterfeit,
resistant to tampering and difficult to use by
anyone other than the rightful card-holder if lost
or stolen.

The new generation of ID cards must be able to
digitally store biometric data such as facial
photographs and fingerprint images, bear contact
and contactless interfaces, and allow the encryption
of data that can be used to electronically
verify the user's identity, according to NIST draft
standards.

Such cards will be required for all federal
employees, including members of the military, as
well as for employees of private organizations and
state and local governments who regularly require
access to federally controlled facilities and computer
systems.

That is a universe of more than 2 million people,
said W. Curt Barker, the project manager at NIST.

Barker said the new standards will include tougher
background check requirements before many recipients
can get their agency ID card. Access to particularly
sensitive offices or systems still will require higher
clearance, he said."There's wide variations in the
quality and security of the forms of identification
that people use to get access to federal facilities,"
he said. ". . . To be completely foolproof will be
extraordinarily difficult, but we can raise the risk
for the terrorist or other person who wants to
fraudulently enter a facility and make it a little
bit more difficult for them to get in."

The common standard also will enable many employees
who shuttle between departments to enter different
buildings with one card. NIST, which has spent about $1
million on the project so far, expects to complete
the new standards by late February.

Employees could start using the new cards as early
as fall 2005, Barker said. Several departments,
notably defense, transportation and interior, began
developing more secure, high-tech ID cards long
before Bush issued the directive, he said. The trend
ultimately could affect private sector workers,
as well.

Experts say the federal government's adoption of
tighter ID card standards could spur more private
businesses to follow suit.Some federal employees
have concerns about the new cards. Colleen M. Kelley,
president of the National Treasury Employees Union,
which represents more than 150,000 federal workers
in 30 agencies, said the proposed standard would
permit agencies to print employees' pay grade and
rank on the new cards, which many workers would
consider an invasion of privacy.

"For example, an agency might seize upon this
technology as a means to track employees as they
move throughout a building," Kelley said in written
comments to NIST last week. "That is troubling,
standing alone. It would be particularly objectionable
if the agency tried to track visits to particular
sites such as the union office, Employee Assistance
Program offices and the inspector general's office.

NIST has gathered comments on the draft standard
from more than 500 entities and individuals but has
not made them public.
