Google, the company that pays the most to spammers, says one of my other sites is blog spam, lol

Image representing Google as depicted in Crunc...Image via CrunchBase

I just got this message from google (GOOG), saying they think LegalUlcer.com is blog spam. Now I applaud their efforts to rid their index and advertising network of spam, but they still seem to be penalizing good sites while real spammers run free.

How many people have had their adsense budgets depleted because of all the spammy sites in googles ad nework? Google, do you care to tell your shareholders how much money you make from spammy sites? So that your efforts to police spam end up being a massive conflict of interest. Im not worried though, as a technologist, i understand that your company will probably end up just like, Yahoo!, AOL, Altavista, etc...

Hepatitis C at Atlantic City Hospital

Atlantic City, New JerseyImage via Wikipedia

I was just in AC with my family two weeks ago so this story is a bit alarming. But I do not think it will stop me from going back though, lol

We stayed at the Resorts Casino and had a great time. It was still too cold for the beach, but the board walk rides and foolishness were fun for the kids.

And three cheers to Jen for accompanying us dweebs around the expo!

Protestors Detained by Nepali Police

It is a perfect time for China to crack down on western activists exposing the genocide they are perpetrating in Tibet since they damn near own us now. What about Tibetan culture threatens the Chinese leadership soo much that would make them want to erase it?

3 western anti-China protestors detained by Nepali police_English_Xinhua: "KATMANDU, March 14 (Xinhua) -- Nepalese police on Saturday detained three westerners who were staging an anti-China demonstration near the Chinese embassy's visa office on the anniversary of the Lhasa incident.

The three, who police said were from Britain and Norway, were arrested near the Snake Temple soon after they started the demonstration."

Our own private suite.... whoops, I mean - hospital room


Both kids in the hospital at once this weekend, so the nurses called our room the "Beharry Suite." Sincere thanks to the nurses and doctors at the Holy Name Pediatric Ward. Parents, there is a nasty stomach virus going around so have your kids wash their hands frequently, and if they do get sick, remember to keep them hydrated.

Luckily our kids only had to spend two days there, and I am happy to report that they appear to be on the mend.

The Pirate Bay Trial Will Be Pivotal

The Pirate Bay logoImage via Wikipedia

The Pirate Bay: 'Political trial of the decade' - The Local: "What scares the establishment is that everybody are equals on the net. Everybody can share and receive freely. There is no central point of control. They are fighting tooth and nail to bring back the good old days, where there was a hard division into approved senders and passive consumer receivers, where the approved senders would compete for the wallet of the consumers. Essentially, they are trying to turn the Internet into a cable TV network."

I personally think this article spelled out the ramifications well. And I sadly believe there is no way Pirate Bay is gonna win. :( check it out: The Pirate Bay: 'Political trial of the decade'

Illegally Seized Evidence Can Be Used Says Supreme Court!!!

United States Supreme Court during ProtestImage by Brandon Cirillo via FlickrBloomberg.com: U.S.: "Jan. 14 (Bloomberg) -- A divided U.S. Supreme Court gave prosecutors more ability to use evidence obtained in violation of the Constitution, ruling against a man who was arrested and searched only because of a police clerical error.

The justices, voting 5-4 along ideological lines, upheld Bennie Dean Herring’s conviction for illegal possession of the methamphetamine and pistol he was carrying when he was arrested in 2004 in Coffee County, Alabama."

It is not as clear cut as the title suggests but it still may lead us down a slippery slope. Soon the movie Minority Report may be closer to reality than we realize.

What do you guys think? Should this man's conviction stand?

Rants from the farm today


I was really aggravated before I chopped this damaged tree down on the family farm in Florida. Luckily I was not in the office today or this aggression would have been released on the big-wig execs who think they know everything and the sales people who throw us under the bus while we save their asses every day.

George W. Bush is Leaving: Saying Goodbye to Someone Has Never Felt Soo Good!

United States of America President George W. B...Image via Wikipedia
George W. Bush is almost gone, but his impact will be haunting us for decades to come. Thats if the country and the environment actually survive.

George W. Bush says history will be the decider, but we should speed up the process a bit. WhatWouldYouSayToThePresident.com is another site that allows simple folk like us to say our piece and help future generations understand what really happened.

Farewell43.com is another one of my favs, but the funniest I have seen this week is: Palin as President (http://www.palinaspresident.us/)



But seriously though, we should pressure politicians via sites like these, because they are not getting good enough results. And that is a nice way of putting it.

At the very least these reviews will be tied to their online reputations, and maybe one day a politician will actually have enough of an open mind to read what everyday citizens think about them.

Find out the facts on these politicians at OnTheIssues.org and FactCheck.org
