Aaron Swartz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aaron Swartz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "The case tested the reach of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, which was passed in 1984 to enhance the government’s ability to prosecute hackers who accessed computers to steal information or to disrupt or destroy computer functionality.[citation needed]
Shortly before Swartz's death, JSTOR announced that it would make "more than 4.5 million articles" available to the public for free[56] — the service was capped at three articles every two weeks, readable online only, with some downloadable for a fee.[57][58] This announcement did not affect the prosecution, ongoing before his death"

4 Ways to Make Money With Domains

4 Ways to Make Money With Domains: "Back links (SEO & Resale/Leasing Purposes): quality, quantity and relevancy. Look for relevant authority back links. You can check this manually by going to Yahoo and typing in link:www.domainname.com. You can do the same on Google but you will generally get less data

- Indexed pages (SEO & Resale/Leasing Purposes): the more indexed pages a domain has the better. You can check this manually by going to Google or other search engines and type in site:www.domainname.com

- DMOZ/Yahoo Directory listings (SEO & Resale/Leasing Purposes): Gaining either DMOZ or Yahoo listing costs either money, time, effort or all 3 so it’s a real bonus to find domains with these listings. Google sees these links as high authority links, which is good for SEO. You can check this manually at DMOZ.org or Search.Yahoo.com/dir"

Obama Says Israel's Calls For Action On Iranian Nuclear Threat Are 'Noise' - Investors.com

Obama Says Israel's Calls For Action On Iranian Nuclear Threat Are 'Noise' - Investors.com: "Middle East: President Obama promised "a sustained effort to find common ground" with the Muslim world. He's found it: He and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad agree that what the Israelis say is "noise."

Block out the "noise" coming from the Israelis. Not a healthy attitude to take toward a singularly persecuted people.

In "Mein Kampf," Adolf Hitler declared that the outset of World War I was a lost opportunity "for proceeding against the entire fraudulent company of these Jewish poison-mongers of the nation." Germany, he said, "should have dealt summarily with them without the slightest consideration for the clamor that would probably arise.""

Peterthals: "partment agencies, banks, etc. etc. can be so over-the-top...what's the word I want?...idiotic, slow, backwards, unbelievably challenged...so bad at their business?? I know we all have had to deal with credit cards not changing your mailing address to the updated, current address you submitted online even after receiving an email confirmation that it was changed or how about when you schedule a time for the cable guy to come and connect your internet, but somehow that paperwork fell through and he never shows up."
