I agree with BBS! Conspiracy theories are just that - conspiracy
theories.

Big WHOOP!

Believe what you want but I believe America IS the land of freedom and
that many, many have died for that ideal.

Sometimes it is best to use something that is tried and true. Sometimes
not. I have a feeling that if you leave that program running... you will
stuck in a loop at some point.

I did check it out but did not download it.

Try digitalpoint.com for a backlink program. I use them all the time for
keywords and more.

Relationships without giving as well as taking are but a doomed affair

Yeah, well...

I don't need someone constantly trying to get me angry when I want to
relax. All I have to do is turn on a TV news station for that. I think
it was about PAST time he was deactivated. If someone wants to DEBATE
(argue) that heavily, perhaps a dating/friendship site is not the best
place to do that. There are thousands of places to GO do THAT. It is the
whole point behind NOT allowing flaming/bashing to occur, in a place
like this.

He/she was looking for something that had nothing to do with
dating/friendship. Don't cry freedom of speech. Inciting a riot,
getting folks bent "clear out of shape" is not the way to find a
girlfriend/boyfriend or a friend of any kind.

Flaming/bashing has nothing to do with friendship. It is destructive,
negative and mean-spirited. And to coin a phrase - it makes people go
"postal".

Hi Kevin - yes, I have seen this and also the w3schools pages too. The
w3schools is where I first started learning some web based languages. I
am no where near as proficient as I should be but keep plugging along
anyhousen.

Thanks a bundle - it is good info for everyone. I did get the books and
since I can carry the books around with me to drs/dentist appts and
everywhere else I keep putting them back in my book bag so I don't
forget them. ALWAYS have to have something to read.

I need a new laptop...
any Santa Clause's here wanting to
HOOK ME UP????? LOL.

Go get 'em Kevin! You got a good plan there. Yeah, there are a lot of
newletters that send out redundant stuff but I had no idea exactly what
you were looking for.

Intel Details New Chip Technology

SAN FRANCISCO (March 29) - Intel Corp., the world's largest computer
chip maker, on Wednesday unveiled details of a new lineup of processors
slated for production later this year that promise a performance boost
and energy savings because of the transition to a new manufacturing
technology.

Santa Clara-based Intel has spent heavily to equip its factories to
produce chips on 45-nanometer technology, which shrinks the circuitry's
width to 45 billionths of a meter. The new family of chips will boast
higher performance than previous generations partly because more
transistors can be squeezed onto a single slice of silicon.

Intel plans to introduce six different types of processors, including
processors with four computing cores boasting 820 million total
transistors. Intel is also using new materials in the transistors that
prevent electric current from leaking out, which in turn extends the
battery life in laptops.

Intel also disclosed some plans for its next-generation chip design,
scheduled to go into production in 2008, that the company claims will
deliver "enormous" performance and energy gains.

Intel's plans include integrating onto the processor a feature called a
memory controller that the company has historically placed on a separate
chip, but rival chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices Inc. has long used it
on the same piece of silicon to access data on external memory chips.

What shell? If you are posting, not shell to come out of!!!

You are doing fine!

I finally just turned mine off today. It can be very annoying. I come
in to read posts and maybe post a few thoughts and BINGO! Someone wants
to chat that I have never heard from before. So I am out of the IM
business for now. I only got so much time to spend and I want to spend
it how I WANT! Me, ME, ME TIME!

LOL

Crapola! I got the mature part covered but the adult part????

nnnaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sluggo posted this a couple of days ago - give it a look see.

Have a great day.

I guess I have to "THIRD" that motion!

I have yet to see subject b, the tiny blue stapler but I would guess it
might fall into the "inannimate" category and should find a place that
is NOT on the ground to sit, where a llama might decide to "go".

Kevin3824 - I got this in one of the newsletters in my inbox this
morning - funny it came TODAY, just when you are asking!

Here it is:

* How to Get Credit for All Your Inbound Links: Consolidate
WWW and non-WWW Links

I'm always looking for ways to raise PageRank on my sites. Here's a
remarkably straightforward approach that could help
significantly, if you already have a number of links to your site --
though it takes a bit of technical intervention. Ross Dunn's
recommendations in this issue's article are worth going to the trouble
to implement. I did.

God bless you,
Dr. Ralph F. Wilson, Editor in Chief

How to Get Credit for All Your Inbound Links: Consolidate WWW and
non-WWW Links by Ross Dunn, StepForth Search Engine Placement Inc.,
Victoria, BC
http://www.wilsonweb.com/linking/dunn-www-linkpopularity.htm
------------------------------------------------------------
Does your website have an alter ego? Strangely enough, the
following addresses are considered separate websites by the search
engines:

* http://www.yourdomain.com (the "www" version)
* http://yourdomain.com (the "non-www" version)

Though visitors see the same content, in the search engine world
this situation poses a serious issue relating to link popularity. If the
"www" version of your website has 300 inbound links and the "non-www"
version has 300 inbound links, then each version is getting credit for
only 300 links rather than the total 600. Here are some immediate steps
you can take to minimize the problem:

1. Make a Choice. Decide which format to keep. I recommend the
"www" version because this seems to be the most common method used to
type in an address. If you agree, use the format
http://www.yourdomain.com on every link you can control.

2. Website Review. Review your website and fix any links that use the
"non-www" version. For example, if you have a link on every page back to
your homepage and it uses the non-www format, switch it to the
www-format.

3. Fix What You Can Offsite. Repair any offsite links that may be
directing traffic to your website using the wrong version of your
address. If you have partnerships with other websites or
advertising campaigns that use the wrong URL, ask them to change
the links where possible.

4. Remove the Problem Entirely. Next minimize the damage of
incorrect backlinks from any other sites by having your webserver "tell"
the search engines that the non-www URL is now permanently redirected to
the www-version. After you do this, if someone types in or clicks on a
non-www version URL, they'll be automatically redirected to the proper
www-version URL. Best of all, search engines interpret this redirect
positively and will forward all link popularity to the www-version URL.
Consequently, you will have consolidated the popularity from both URLs
into a single website which can significantly increase link popularity
and search engine rankings.

Implementing this "server-side 301 redirect" will require the aid of a
technical person comfortable with making website alterations. Refer your
technical aide to the following tutorial: "How to 301 Redirect Non-WWW
to WWW URLs" (www.stepforth.com/faq/non-www-redirect.htm).

Google offers a feature in Google Webmaster Tools
(www.google.com/webmasters/tools/) that allows you to tell Google which
version of your domain to use within the Google search engine. You'll
need to login to an existing account or create a free one for your site.
Once you verify that you control the domain, on the Webmaster Tools My
Sites page, click on the link to "Manage http://yourdomain.com". In the
left navigation menu go to Tools > Preferred domain to make your
selection. Realize, however, that is a Google-only work-around and not a
fix. It's far better to implement the 301 redirect described above which
corrects the problem for all search engines.

Once you've consolidated the value of all the links pointed to
your site you are another step closer to securing better search
engine rankings.

Maybe this will help too. I get the WilsonWeb newsletter delivered to
my inbox when it comes out and usually read the whole thing too. Many
good tips to be had in every issue on a wide range of subjects having to
deal with web site building, ranking, you know, SEO issues.

There is another good newsletter I get um... will have to go look and
see where it comes from. LOL.

Verb

Page rank is important and at EES I have been up to a PR6, down to PR3,
back UP to PR5, down to PR0 and back up... and down again. LOL. It blows
your mind sometimes how fickle google is. They used to change the
algorithms every 3 to 4 months or so and plenty of times it did not
matter all that much (1 point up or down) until you drop from 6 to
zip... that does s**k lemons!

The on target linking is somewhat over-rated though. Sure, it matters
but it is not the end all and be all of everything to have a topped out
PR. I got one client on page one of every major SE and listed in the
top 10 sites and he had a COW if it ever listed below the top ten for
his major keywords. He paid me $10.00 a month for SEO maintenance for
his site and griped all the time about THAT TOO. I finally just told
him that if he was not getting orders maybe he should do some of his own
advertising in other places (he had tons of quality links that I spent
FOREVER getting for him.) and not depend only on SE listings. He
thought he was paying me too much. You simply cannot please some
people, no matter how hard you work for them. OOppss, whine, whine,
whine.

I look at PR every couple of weeks but don't freak out anymore as I have
the traffic I need at my long term sites. It does get frustrating
sometimes though... YOU KNOW?

I do work on links all the time, continuously for all the sites. Two
sites that I took down are now back up but with hardly any links to
them. Kevin - I will get with you on this as they are the same type as
yours. I think you might know which ones I am talking about... although
I have plenty of other updates to get done on those.

As far as PR in general, incoming quality links are hard to get on an
ongoing basis and belonging to many "link partner" sites does help but
you also get lots of requests for linking that you would not want. It
can be a hard task, I know, but keep plugging away, it will happen,
sooner or later.

I watched and watched and watched and it goes on and on and on...

LOL - too funny!

Bill Gates and Microsoft's history is well documented. Most of us
(geeks) have been well into that. Plus the history of Steve Jobs and
Steve Wozniack, the Apple co-founders.

HA! So true about programmers!

All interesting stuff...

massagetrade, great article and quite interesting. My son was into the
incan and mayan histories some time ago (incan and mayan art) and so any
articles were read with relish.

uh, llamas do poop but prefer to poop in the same place. They pick a
spot and always go in that place, one guy named the spot the llavatory
(llamatory?) lol.

FDF, cool beans, huh? LOL.

You look like "cool beans" too.

Hiya Classyjeff,

Oh man, dontcha HATE when that happens? When they send me the wrong
stuff, I try to get expedited shipping for freee. Sometimes it works and
sometimes it doesn't.
