After posting here and on some blogs and social media, I was contacted by somebody from the GoDaddy CEO's office.
He was polite, acted concerned, listened, then ignored everything we talked about and clearly could care less about me or my problem.
I have over 750 domains on GoDaddy, between my 2 accounts, and I made it clear that I wasn't happy with the fact that I was removed from their VIP Program, which provides an additional layer of support by assigning a dedicated representative who keeps in touch with you and monitors your account for anything unusual.
If I was still in that VIP Program, I would've been notified before they took my domains.
Moving 750 domains takes a lot of time, but I have already moved about 40 and I will eventually move them all.I simply hate being treated like garbage.
One of the positive things that came from this was connecting with a lot of high volume domain owners on a bunch of domain blogs.
The general consensus among people who buy and sell domains for a living is that EVERY major domain professional simply HATES GoDaddy.
I can't stress enough how much the domain industry HATES GoDaddy.They became #1 with slick ads to appeal to the masses, but those who know domains know that GoDaddy is one of the worst companies in the world to do business with.
I'm normally quite articulate when I write... There are tons of typos in this... I'm just super pissed.
Trademarks were designed to unique protect brand names, like Cheerios, Doritos, or Coca-Cola... so when GoDaddy decided to automate their domain registration system to prevent people from registering domains containing Trademarks.
The trouble is, their system can trigger false red flags for Trademarks of common words. For example, did you know somebody has a Trademark for "April"? I found out the hard way... I registered domains recently that had common words like April and Complete in them, then because of their filters, the domains were taken away two weeks after the confirmed order.
Let me be clear here, although there may be a US Trademark for the word April, NOBODY owns that word. It's a month... and a woman's name. The same is true for Complete, so don't worry if you use it in a sentence.
The trouble is, I ordered the domains Complete.xyz and April.xyz and received confirmations on June 20th... only to have them removed from my account and sold to another GoDaddy customer in July.
That's undefensible. I am perfectly okay with a Trademark filter that stops people from cyber-squatting unique brand names, but that filter needs to remove any Trademark of common words and phrases.
For this reason, if Andersen wanted to buy a domain with Windows in it, Microsoft would not care, because Microsoft has no intention to own the word Windows. Their Trademark is designed to stop other software companies from making a software product called Windows, not to prevent people from using Windows in any other way.
So far, they have taken 3 domains from me because of this flawed system. It's not only flawed for red-flagging common word domains in the first place, but because there are several bugs in that system that prevent them from giving the domain owner an opportunity to sign acknowledgement agreements that would otherwise save the domain.
Because of this second flaw, I never even knew they intended to take my domains from my account.
To fix this problem they need to do four things.
1. Before taking a domain that somebody paid for, there needs to be a second filter for common words. Any common word such as "Dog", "Cat", "House", "January"... APRIL... should automatically be cleared, because even if somebody has a Trademark, there is no reason to block somebody from owning such a domain. Period.
2. Regardless of the red flag, there should be HUMAN review, so somebody who sees the domain can decide if there is a potential problem.
3. Once the red flag has been reviewed and a clear Trademark issue is indicated, the domain should NOT be removed... but suspended at least 30 days until a CONFIRMED contact is made, by certified mail, phone or email. In the case of email, an unanswered email does not qualify, there must be a response.
4. Once a CONFIRMED notification is made, the owner should have 30 days to submit any documentation needed to keep it, before it is taken away.
The trouble is, I own nearly 700 domains... and I am still concerned they will continue to take my domains away without notice.
After losing the first two domains in this manner, I pressed them to review my list of about 700 domains, and let me know if there were any other domains flagged for Trademark issues, they said I was clear... then they took the third.
This time, I demanded they look at my list, and put IN WRITING, a single statement that every domain I owned as of that moment was safe, and was not subject to another Trademark grab. I told them this was so that I could hold them accountable if it happens again. They repeatedly refused to put it in writing.
If they had faith in their system, there would be no reason to refuse to put it in writing.
They refunded the price of each domain... about $12, but because all three domains were short, easy to remember domains, the damage to me as a domain investor were potentially in the tens of thousands.

starting a sfg, advice, suggestions...
I am new to the forum and have zero experience gardening. I purchased Mel's book and am reading but I have a few questions.
I am in South Central Texas (near San Antonio) how do you know what to plant and when to plant it?
It gets HOT for long periods of time in the Summer months and I want to garden with my children....how do I know what will be the best veggies to plant?
We have moles and many animals around, what is the best way to set up the garden to protect it from the neighboring wild life?
What do you wish someone had told you when you first started?
Any other tips and suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Tex,
I started my square foot gardening 4 years ago, when my hubby suggested it cause I could no longer garden the traditional way. It sounds to my like you have the perfect set up to grow a lot of things... try tomatoes, peppers and eggplants in the summer, they love the heat. Plus lots of flowers do well in full sun like sunflowers, zinnias and marigolds. Look for dwarf varieties.
In the fall and winter in your area you can have the cool season stuff that the northerns have to wait till spring for like lettuce, radishes and peas.
For kids melons and pumpkins should by popular, just build a sturdy trellis and go with mini types.
Good luck, you will love it.
I think somewhere in the book he has suggestions about how to keep animals out. Fencing around and buried into the ground, putting mesh under the bed before putting soil in if you have digging animals. The forums have many suggestions like things to plant/spray to help repel animals. Heck there are sprinkler systems that are set off by motion to scare the animals away.
Just keep reading and start doing searches on the forums and in google and you will get ideas.
There was a post a while back concerning how someone set-up an animal free garden.
They put chicken wire under the box (good for most burrowing animals, but voles will be small enough to get inside the holes, if they want to. He also created an elevated hinged chicken wire box for the tops, to keep critters out of the tops, as well. That sounds like a pretty hefty financial commitment. If you are really committed to the garden, then it's a great idea.
As far as gardening with the kids, that's an interesting question. There are a lot of things to consider: age, level of interest, height, etc.
I would suggest peas as a great "kid" plant. #1 - seeds are big, so even the youngest child can plant to seed fairly easily. #2 - grows to be taller than they are (if trellised) which kids love - gives them a sense of accomplishment. #3 - they are sweet as anything and most kids will eat them right there in the garden - rarely do my peas actually make it into the house! #4 - easy to do. Very little care needs to be given to them. They grow up any support you give them with little to no coaxing, they are very cold tolerant (not an issue much for you, but you should be able to grow them in the winter pretty easily. Finally, they add nitrogen to your soil, so you can plant more heavy feeders in that spot later in the year, like tomatoes or even pumpkins (also a kid favorite).
Other kid favorites: lettuce (eat right out of the garden as well...little fuss, but the seeds are pretty small), cherry tomatoes (more bite size than the regular and again, can be eaten right there in the garden - are you picking up a pattern?!), carrots (the sweeter the better, and very easy to do, overwintering carrots are the sweetest...the carrots convert their starches to sugars in colder weather!).
For under the beds, there are hardware cloths with different sizes and should be one suitable for keeping voles out. We often staple it on the bottom.
There will be times in the summer where your plants may seem to do poorly. Above a certain temperature, tomato pollen dies, but once it cools off again, they will revive. To get started, you could contact a master gardener in your area and they can give you ideas of what to plant when. Also, gardening is a learning process. Some years are better than others and you will learn a lot by just doing. Some plants may need some shade cloth some of the time or some shelter from the sun as your sun will be more intense than it is for people farther north. Enjoy the adventure!
You'll find a lot of info on these forums via the search box. As you look through all the posts, check to see of the poster lives in the same zone as you do. Most importantly though, your county extension office will have info on which varieties of plants grow well in your area as well as info on what kinds of pests and diseases are typical and how to manage them.

Dream Catchers - TBI Survivors helping others - LesPaul Morgan
People usually only reach out only when they need help or there is a crisis but we here Dream Catchers we believe in community support, Peer to peer Support, and Systems change Advocacy and that there are people everywhere with and without disabilities who can learn a lot from survivors!
I met someone who doesn't have a disability who is down on their luck. I invited them to come to our last Brain Injury Support group meeting and they came. They wound up telling people all over the community about what we are doing and in turn others started helping out and it turned into a beautiful thing!!!! Tonight we will be talking about building up Community services for everyone in need with is a true act of kindness indeed!
We could work together in a food bank or offer support in many ways but one of the harshest realities I have witnessed in the disability community is that disabilities segregate and separate from one another.
We all are fighting for the same pot of money the same rights under the ADA so why not all of us fight together on the same team for all people with disabilities and be 56,000,000 and for an unbeatable power house team of survivors that just simply believes that discrimination of any type is wrong!!!!
Everybody out their - Dream Catchers - LesPaul Morgan
in Motivation
The words of a new song by Paul McCartney called Everybody out there motivated me to come up with it as part of my shows title for my show tonight.) Hey, Everybody out there. You know what it's like. If you haven't got a life, When you haven't got a life, Hey, do you want to make a difference? Well, stand in the line If you haven't got the time I can give you some of mine There, but for the Grace of God go you and I We're the brightest objects in the sky There, but for the Grace of God go you and I Do some good before you say goodbye
Through time their have been people who talk the talk but don't walk the walk when it comes to caring, compassion, and a new life or about the real cost and challenge to survivors of TBI and aneurism survivors around the World but giving us a voice and standing with and for the survivors that is where the pavement meets the road! Do you know what it's like, I can't hear you, I can't hear you!!!
Tonight let's talk about survivors reaching out to other survivors and showing the care and compassion that it will take to make a difference in a way that only one survivor to another can provide and by truly stepping up to the plate and helping those who feel disfranchised and abandoned around the World! Lets make a difference in the lives of Millions so talk to me!!!
Tonight will do just that stand up and take the place of people who can't due to their Injuries and help make the entire World a much better place for everyone now!

Love disability & Equal Rights! Dream Catchers with LesPaul
When people with disabilities fall in love our own government often gets in the way and tries to make it very hard, if not totally impossible for people just because they have a disability to fall in love, get married, and live the American dream!
Often couples with disabilities who want to get married, have to decide to shack up instead of get married, have their benefits cut, removed, or be told, it's better for you not to get married and live together, even if it is against your own religious beliefs. This is wrong! Is time to take a stand is time for people everywhere to let freedom ring for equality for people with disabilities to live just like everyone else and fall in love and get married.

Join forces with us as we fight the struggle together, one disability survivor and one dream at a time here on dream catchers. We believe that people with and without disabilities should be able to live your own life as freely as possible, whether they have a disability or not come join the fight!
Empowerment Zone with LesPaul Morgan

The Empowerment Zone was created to help empower people with disabilities to be able to live, Love, Work just like anyone else. We aren't asking for a hand out but instead a hand up and to be treated as equals in society and that means people with disabilities living a self directed and self determent life!

TBI: Chip on the Shoulder or Start of a Journey? Dream Catchers with Les Paul
in Motivation
Since I work and interact with a lot people with TBI survivors I have met many kinds of people who feel life has been so hard and rugged on them that they just want to give up, yet on the other hand I have met others that are struggling to take their next breath and can still smile and that's because every single TBI is different.
A chip on your Shoulder
Stop the discrimination
Empowerment, Justice, inclusion
Working together
Loving our differences
Accepting ourselves
Pain and panic
Love and peace
Open floor-open mic
I am hoping that even if you have a chip on your shoulder that tonight we will all come together on the Brain Injury Radio Network, TBISN, the Brain Injury Association of America and start a dialog to consider our options to help us all come together as the United voce for making the biggest difference in history to create a real power house team of survivors and teams of people willing to show up and be counted and forever change the history of Brain Injury peer support and advocacy forever 2015 truly will be a great year of change if we all come together!!!!

Dream Catchers - The Independent Living Model - LesPaul
in Motivation
Tonight is going to be about the real life heart to heart struggles that survivors are going through around the World. Because I work for an Independent Living Center which is a civil rights organization run bye and for people with disabilities I sit in a unique position to offer peer Support and Advocacy as both a survivor and as a peer support specialist with a disability who aqlso lives the struggle so I need support as well!!!
Stop thinking of disability as a loss but instead a way to learn and discover new and positive traits about yourself. If you don't know it yet you the survivor offer the best recovery tools available when you dare to make a difference and start fighting all of the negative self-talk and get motivated to live a bold new life without limits and take back your destiny.
Special Note. I may play a prerecorded show for the 1st 45 minutes or more tonight due to my own personal struggles that I am going through right now but once I finish and I hope to do so early I will come on live and we will do a live call in show!

Comments about K & B Furniture Twin Over Full Bunk Bed - Esprit Walnut:
Purchased in Nov 2014.
Overall a good value with minor modification. Upon assembly we noticed the center supports for the full size bed were about 2" too short (wouldn't reach the floor) and the ladder would not align with both the top and bottom beds at the same time. We contacted Hayneedle, who contacted the manufacturer, who shipped us a new ladder and supports in about a week with no fuss. The issues were corrected with the new parts.
Bed assembly is sturdy and should last a long time. We have already used full size for guests.
Color is a little darker and a little more red than picture shows, but very nice looking.
We have a 7.5" thick platform under our full size, but the fit would be better with a flat platform (more head room). The support slats under the bed don't seem sufficient to support a mattress by themselves. We fastened a piece of 3/4" plywood to the upper bunk and will likely later do the same with the bottom bunk to increase head room.
The only caution is that the top bunk guard rail won't take a lot of abuse, so be sure to train the occupant not to lean on it.

HONG KONG -- (Marketwire) -- 02/17/13 -- Media OutReach, a media intelligence company that specialises in media monitoring and press release distribution, announced today it is introducing a real-time media analysis service that is set to help communications and marketing professionals work more efficiently.
The one-of-a-kind service analyses various forms of content generated from print and online media and enables users to instantly generate analysis reports according to parameters and criteria set by them. Not only does this automated analysis evaluate the overall performance of a communications team, it can also track performances in different countries, of different projects and make comparisons with competitors.
"This is the first time customised media analysis reports can be accessible at anyone's fingertips, anywhere and anytime," said Jennifer Kok, founder and managing director of Media OutReach. "From our web-based portal, users can instantly obtain an objective assessment of their media strategies, share such intelligence with stakeholders, and take their communications plans to the next level."
The criteria used for producing the analysis reports can be altered anytime to accommodate users' changing needs and there is no limit on the number of reports to be generated from the system. With this transformational service, businesses no longer have to allocate a large amount of resources, nor wait until the end of a quarter to evaluate their communications programmes.
In addition to the automated reports, Media OutReach is offering users the option to obtain more detailed understanding of the assessments through personalised analyses that cover other elements such as the tonality of the findings and how well key messages are reflected in the media. Alternatively, for clients who would like to undertake their own detailed analysis Media OutReach's system provides the analysis tools.
"Media OutReach was founded with a mind to make communications professionals' lives easier and their work more effective and efficient. This is our passion and we will continue to grow our services based on this philosophy," Kok added.

Possible "vampire" stars in the Milky Way's bulge are circled in green. Image courtesy ESA/NASA, W. Clarkson/IU/UCLA, and K. Sahu/STScI
Published June 9, 2011
The stellar version of vampires—stars that drain life away from other stars—have been discovered for the first time in the heart of our Milky Way galaxy.
(See Milky Way pictures in National Geographic magazine.)
Called blue stragglers, these cannibal stars have been spotted in other parts of the Milky Way. They seem to lag in age next to the other stars with which they formed—appearing hotter, and thus younger and bluer.
Astronomers suspect blue stragglers look so youthful because they've stolen hydrogen fuel from other stars, perhaps after colliding into their victims.
(See related picture: "'Cannibal' Galaxy Gets Fatter.")
These cannibal stars are routinely found in dense star clusters, where stars have many chances to feed off each other. Now, however, scientists have found blue stragglers in the Milky Way's galactic bulge, a dense region of stars and gas surrounding the galaxy's center.
"For a long time, it was suspected there were blue stragglers in the bulge, but no one knew how many there might be," said Will Clarkson, an astronomer at Indiana University Bloomington and the University of California, Los Angeles.
"At long last, we've shown they're there."
Milky Way Vampires Formed Differently?
Using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers looked at 180,000 stars in and near the bulge. The team discovered 42 unusually blue stars that appeared much younger than the other stars.
(Also see "Galaxy 'Crumbs' Found in Milky Way—Proof of Recent Feeding.")
From these 42 stars, researchers estimate that 18 to 37 of them are likely real blue stragglers that are about 10 billion to 11 billion years old. The remainder may be genuinely young stars in the bulge, or stars not actually in the bulge.
It's also possible the blue stragglers did not form by slamming into other stars and absorbing extra hydrogen fuel, as occurs in other parts of the universe.
Instead, the blue stragglers in the galactic bulge may have formed by ripping hydrogen off their companion stars. This possibly occurred either when one star fed off its partner in a two-star system, or perhaps after gravitational interactions in a triple-star system had caused two of its members to merge into one.
"There's still a lot we don't know about the details of how blue stragglers form," Clarkson said.
"Finding them in the bulge provides another set of constraints that can help refine models of their formation."
Vampire-star findings presented May 25 at an American Astronomical Society meeting in Boston.

Liberal's intent for Barker in campaign countdown
A plan to build a strong and prosperous economy for the people of Barker is on the cards if the Coalition wins the next election, says local candidate Tony Pasin, in the wake of Prime Minister Julia Gillard's announcement that Australians will head to the polls on 14 September.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
Liberal Party pre-selection candidate for Barker, Tony Pasin, says he welcomes the certainty of the date.
"It allows me and my campaign team to work hard and focus on the date," he said.
The Mount Gambier solicitor and former city councillor was pre-selected in March 2012, replacing long-sitting member for Barker, Patrick Secker, as Liberal's local candidate.
Committed to campaigning full time once the election process is underway, Mr Pasin says that if a Tony Abbott-led-Coalition comes out on top, his focus will be on the local economy.
"We have a plan to build a strong and prosperous economy.
"There's been, I think, a predominance in this country over the last five years and the term of this government to effectively shun agriculture and make manufacturing more difficult and we want to turn that around.
"To do that we want to take pressure off manufacturers, take pressure off families, do away with the carbon tax and a number of other things," he said.
With a Labor candidate yet to be announced for the electorate of Barker, which includes 65,000 sq kms, Mr Pasin is looking at 14 September as a date of change.
"We woke up this morning with a minority, dysfunctional government, on 14 September we've got an opportunity to change that.
"It's a choice between more taxes or less - referencing the carbon tax, more regulation or less - referencing the policy we've announced to reduce red and green tape by more than one billion dollars, more credibility in government and more trust," he said.
Having built a "strong" relationship with Tony Abbott over the past 11 months through regular communication, Mr Pasin is confident a Coalition headed federal government would make good on its promises.
"One thing I know from Tony Abbott and one thing I'll make sure if I'm the member for Barker, is that we won't promise one thing and deliver another.
"I've got to live in this community and be able to walk down the main street having said 'we've done x', I need to be told by people 'well you haven't done x', I can't live with that.
"I've lived my life in Barker, I understand the issues, I'm strong enough to stand up in the party room and say that that decision is not in the interest of the people in Barker," he said.
Mount Gambier resident, Nick Fletcher, has flagged his intent to run as an Independent for the Senate in the upcoming federal election with plans to focus his campaign on the issue of anti-wind turbines.
What you said
SMS: As usual, our first dose of political rhetoric doesnt inspire confidence. Being aligned to either party is dangerous.
Facebook: If we were being led by people who are competent & real, we wouldn't even need an election. Fool be us for even thinking either Liberal or Labor is capable of doing the job. We are condoning a process that is well past its use-by-date. We dont need to change the driver or even the car, we need to change the transport. Phil Richards.

Here is a link that might be useful: Property on eBay
Can't believe you of all people (course I've been paid to edit too [fools!]) you didn't zero in on all of the "errors" in that post. Makes something "smell" to me...and I'm the Optimist!!!
(Excuse me...I'm about to go out of my mind with my Mom living here and my a$$hole Brother visiting for a month ~ Where IS THAT BLUFF I can jump off of....;(>
Butt then, maybe I've just been thrown over the edge!
TNNotEnoughJackOrCalgonInTheWorldLady (WAHHHHHHH!!!!!)
Are they really trying to sell this place? Maybe with the pictures they have chosen they are going for bottom dollar rather than top dollar. There are several pictures of a dirt road and rusty gate, a close up of a paw print, numerous pictures of dreary leafless trees in the rather gray lake. Then come the interior shots, featuring a bed with a yellowed and stained mattress, a bedroom with a homemade bed and lovely galvanized metal walls, some sort of cave like living room, an out of focus bedroom picture featuring a box fan, a bathroom counter accented with wire hangers and a box of cornstarch, perhaps the lovliest bathroom I've ever seen with an artfully askew shower curtain, a large cooler with boxes of night crawlers nestled amongst cheap champagne, and several pictures of random walls. When can I move in?!
I thought the same thing, terriks...but bit my tongue. A large private lake would be great - if it didn't look like a flood plain after a thunderstorm came through.
Don't understand what's so great about owning a dam either, what if the damn thing springs a leak? Even worse, burst...flooding the entire village killing all the cows, washing away the poor farmers fields, stranding folks up on their rooftops! Any survivors would be running okwriter OUT of town and he'd have to post "my neighbors don't like me" thread. Poor, ok...
I thought all the drowned trees was pretty awful, too. Maybe bass fishermen get all oogly with the site of so much "cover".
The thing that would put me off would be the idea that I had to host the damn governor every year on his holiday. I can just see refusing him entry, a state commission would be all over you for "improper maintenece of an intrastate waterway" or "illegal damming of a natural stream course" or something.
And isn't all that beautiful hunting-lodge decor inside a big red POLE BARN? It looks like he just added stuff as he could afford it (terricks favorite bathroom) or found it at a restaurant fixtures salvage store (the store cooler and the cookstove). And that bathroom counter with the cornstarch is IN the bedroom, isn't it? Don't I see the mural in the mirror? And there is no heat, as evidenced by all the electric space heat radiators plugged into those wierdly high outlets. So building codes do not apply to hunting lodges that share a pole barn with recreational vehicles? Check out the lack of spindles on that stairway railing.
She shudders. It is the kind of hunting lodge my dad and stepmom would have pieced together if they'd ever had the idea. A thing of nightmares. If this is how it looks when it is being readied for a real estate listing, I am glad I never saw it messy.
I guess they can get around all those pesky "code issues" since they have the high class Governor's retreat there. It's all in who you know...
