Easter devotions are here! Sign up for our Lent and Easter email devotions.
While 1 Corinthians reflects problems between the apostle and the community, 2 Corinthians indicates that these differences escalated into open hostility. The tensions that developed between Paul and the Christian community in Corinth seem to have come to a head in his unexpected visit there between the writing of the two canonical letters. Paul addressed this problem in a "sorrowful letter," now apparently lost, which partially resolved the friction. Second Corinthians celebrates the restored congenial relations between him and his converts.

BOOK REVIEW: Gangsta Granny
By David Walliams, illustrated by Tony Ross (HarperCollins, RRP $25)
It's refreshing to find a book aimed at younger readers that doesn't focus on either girls and horses or teens and vampires.
Little Britain star David Walliams has followed up on his earlier successful children's books with this latest offering, Gangsta Granny.
This hilarious story of old age features plenty of adventure and the lesson that being old doesn't mean being boring.
Ben's granny is pretty much like any other granny you would expect to meet, complete with white hair and false teeth. However, she's also an international jewel thief.
I'm certainly not the target audience for this book - in fact, I'm nearly four decades away from being the target demographic - but it's one of those books that will become a family favourite and parents will enjoy it every bit as much as their children.
This is Walliams' fourth novel for children and certainly lives up to the standards of the earlier three. It is easy to see why some reviewers have called him this generation's Roald Dahl.

Poll: Do you support the Albany aquarium proposal?
Monday's public forum concerning the Albany aquarium proposal has sparked heated debates. Critics of the project argue that it will be hugely expensive given the current economy, compensated only by creating 40-100 new jobs.

it is really rare to spend time in such a comforting hotel, in a magnificent position and above all with personal very available and nice
spa, pool, lawn, view
the staff was artificially friendly, but completely incompetent/not reacting nor able/willing to offer any solution with regard to any individual (quite 'normal') wish.I found it e.g. inappropriate and small-minded for a hotel of this category that the towels of my booked and payed double room were reduced to the absolute minimum (1 and a half) for one person.
Pool, spa, lawn, site
I had booked a room for two, but (as my partner could not join me) was treated as a single person with reduction of comfort (towels), but without reduction of the room costs. Staff was friendly, but incompetent with regard to 'special' requests.
Breakfast (wonderful freshly baked bread of several kinds and a big selection of homemade marmalade were my favorites!) , friendliness of the staff, rental bikes included, absolute cleanness of the room and all the common facilities. We did not take half pension but tried the dinner a la carte on one night. The selection on the menu is not big but the quality is excellent. Try Apfelstrudel for dessert or snack- one of the best I've ever had!
The location is not ideal: it is quite a distance from the lake and it is up the hill, walking distance from the lake is about 15-20 min or one should drive a car or a bike. Then again this is what you like- it is much more quiet compare to the busy city center area. There is a nice swimming pool on the hotel grounds but no beach that belongs to the hotel. One could get a free access card from the reception to one of the public beaches but it is 7 km away from the hotel, so again one needs to drive a car or bike to get there. The room is nice and clean but we were surprised that there was no air conditioning which with the temperature of +30 outside would be expected in a 4 star hotel. It did not help that the window could not be opened at night because of the rail road nearby, the sound is really quite disturbing even with the windows closed and the trains pass by very frequently. Also, there was no minibar and therefore no fridge in the room. We had a room with the "lake" view but in reality we saw a lot of trees, highway and a tiny little bit of the lake, so this is really not worth the additional money. WiFi, although free of charge, did not work for more than 5 minutes in our room. I don't know if this is the case in the whole hotel area; since we did not need it urgently we did not bother to find out.

Syria unrest: Famed cartoonist Ali Ferzat 'beaten'
One of the best-known cartoonists in the Arab world has been beaten up by Syrian security forces, activists say.
Ali Ferzat, whose work is critical of the government, was forced from his car in Damascus and badly beaten.
The attack comes after 11 civilians and eight soldiers were reportedly killed in different incidents across Syria.
The UN says more than 2,200 people have been killed as security forces crack down on anti-government protests that began in mid-March.
The demonstrators are demanding the removal of President Bashar al-Assad, whose family has been in power for 40 years.
In one of his latest cartoons, Ali Ferzat shows President Assad sweatily clutching a suitcase while he tries to hitch a lift with the Libyan leader, Col Muammar Gaddafi, who is furiously driving a getaway car.
The Syrian cartoonist has produced a stream of images like this in the past few months that have directly attacked the Syrian leader, says the BBC's Arab affairs analyst Sebastian Usher.
Mirror-image cartoonIn one, President Assad is shown patiently white-washing the shadow of a huge security thug on a wall, while the real man stands untouched. The caption reads: "Lifting the emergency law".
For 40 years, Ali Ferzat has been skewering the mismatch between rhetoric and reality in the Arab world, says our analyst.
In his meticulous drawings, mostly without captions, he has shown the overbearing brutality of bureaucracy, the hypocrisy of leaders, and myriad other injustices of daily life that have resonated across the Middle East.
When President Assad first took power, Ali Ferzat was allowed to start an officially-sanctioned satirical magazine as part of what was intended to be a new era of openness. But it was soon closed down.
What has changed in his work as the Syrian uprising has grown is his readiness to target real people - President Assad above all - rather than archetypes of unfettered power.
His beating-up by security forces shows that he has hit home and that the authorities' tolerance for dissent is touching zero.
Another shows Mr Assad flexing in uniform in front of a mirror that reflects back a dominant, muscular image, overshadowing his puny figure.
Syrian activists say Mr Ferzat was forced out of his car before dawn in Damascus, beaten and dumped at the side of a road.
Pictures of Mr Ferzat in hospital showed his face bruised and heavy bandages on both hands.
Mr Ferzat's beating shows that he has hit home and that the authorities have no more tolerance for dissent, says our Arab affairs analyst.
Activist groups say Syria's military have renewed their focus on anti-government protesters in the east of the country, with tanks entering the cities of Shuhail and Deir al-Zour.
"Initial reports by residents describe tens of tanks firing randomly as they stormed the town [Shuhail] at dawn," Reuters quoted a local activist as saying.
The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 11 civilians were killed across Syria on Wednesday, most of them in Homs province.
State news agency Sana said eight soldiers were killed in two attacks on the military, also in Homs province.
UN visitMost foreign journalists have been barred from Syria, making it difficult to verify reports from local activists and officials.
A UN humanitarian delegation is winding up a five-day assessment mission - the first of its kind in Syria - that has visited many of the country's trouble spots.
In some places, the team was mobbed by demonstrators, says the BBC's Jim Muir, reporting from Beirut in neighbouring Lebanon.
Activists said security forces opened fire on crowds in the city of Homs on Monday and in Talbisa on Wednesday after the UN team left, killing several people in Homs.
The UN team's visit was not reported at all by Syrian state TV, our correspondent says.
As well as civilians, human rights groups say 500 soldiers have been killed and thousands arrested since March. The government has blamed the unrest on "armed criminal gangs".
Western nations have called on the UN to impose sanctions against Mr Assad and his ruling circle.

DOES IRAN WIN THE IRAQ WAR? A senior U.S. government official, dismayed by what he calls a premature U.S. withdrawal, recently turned to me and said, "Iraq is like a trillion dollar balloon that's floating away. And we're watching it float toward Tehran." The strategic implications for America and its allies, he added, are "catastrophic." Iran's influence in Iraq is both overt and subtle. It's evident in Iranian products on Iraqi shelves, in strong ties of faith, and in Tehran's open lines to all of Iraq's political power players (including, said the U.S. official, to Sunni-backed and secular Shiite Ayad Allawi, who's often seen as the bulwark against Iranian influence in Iraq). "In short, Iran infiltrates the top echelons of the Iraqi authority. Iran is in government departments and among the average Iraqis," political analyst Liqa Makki said on a recent Al Jazeera talk show. Other analysts see the so-called "Great Iraqi Oil Rush," playing for an estimated 100 billion barrels in untapped fields, as especially attractive to Iran as the squeeze of sanctions slows its own oil production and revenues. Yet the struggle over resources like oil and water may prove Iraq's willingness to resist Iran's meddling. Last year a skirmish erupted over the ill-defined Iran-Iraq border, along Iraq's oil rich southern region. Iraqi Shiite leaders had harsh words for their Iranian neighbors, accusing them of seizing oil wells. "Iraqis mostly dislike Iran — and I mean really, really dislike Iran. If they felt strong enough to stand up to Iran, they absolutely would," said Kenneth Pollack, a former NSA and CIA official, in remarks published by the Brookings Institution. "If they are scared of violence, and scared that no one else is going to help them deal with the violence, then the [Shiite] tend to fall back on Iran not because they like them, but as the only game in town." As the U.S. begins Operation New Dawn on Sept. 1, Iraq will likely remain without a government, mired in political squabbles five months after its election. The chatter on the Arab street, especially on the Sunni side, charges America with abandonment for leaving Iraq in a political vacuum — a deeply entrenched view that the U.S. is trying to overturn. "Iraq belongs to Iran now," I heard from an Abu Dhabi royal. "We're never going to get it back." That may just be Sunni alarmism, says author and Iraq analyst Nir Rosen. But he and others agree that Iran has actually gained from the Iraq War. Foremost for Iranian leaders, many of whom fought Saddam Hussein in the 1980s, America took out a mortal enemy and a rival in the regional power game. "There was a point where Iran was very afraid, when this looked like an easy war for America and it looked like they were next," said Rosen from Baghdad. With the chaos that followed and the violence that continues today — perceived as signs of failed U.S. policy — the Iranian regime feels more secure and better positioned to project its power, hard and soft, across the Middle East.

AL QAEDA: A GROWING FRANCHISE THAT MAY BE GROWING THINThe Persian Gulf shuddered when an al Qaeda-linked group claimed last month's explosion on an oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, the waterway that sees passage of 40 percent of the world's shipped oil. The attack did little damage, but sent a huge message: Al Qaeda can strike in the Strait, a show of broader geographical reach and continued commitment to hitting the global oil supply. As information on the attack trickled out, eyes moved toward the two major nodes of al Qaeda in the neighborhood: the so-called Al Qaeda Central, across Afghanistan and Pakistan, largely neutered by the U.S. invasion, and Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, created from a merger of militants in Yemen and Saudi Arabia. AQAP has grown bolder and more aggressive since it emerged in 2006 and is now the subject of what's being called a "shadow war" of U.S. drone strikes (one Pentagon official told me "Yemen is pretty much letting us do what we need/want to get the job done" without a ground invasion). As the oil tanker investigation unfolded, so did the questions. Did the group that claimed the attack come out of AfPak or AQAP? Or was it a one-off? Was it al Qaeda at all? From here in the region, the words "al Qaeda-linked" and "al Qaeda-inspired" can sound dubious — a tag phrase used by jihad wannabes, or a label applied by governments to any group with a grievance. Out of the confusion came a portrait of al Qaeda, through the eyes of the Arab world. Al Qaeda looks and operates like a franchise, in a string of autonomous groups stretching from Morocco to Chechnya to the Philippines. As Ken Menkhaus said on CNN, "All Jihad is Local." Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb plays on border disputes and bare pockets of the Sahara, financing itself through narcotics, kidnapping and human traffic. Al Qaeda in Iraq, which had been mostly gutted, is becoming more active and/or visible as Baghdad goes months without a central government. Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula makes use of Yemen's tribal highlands and fractured politics. In Saudi Arabia, al Qaeda has elevated women to unprecedented operational roles, a twist of ideology to evade authority. "Al Qaeda now is a brand and each local affiliate is different, from relations to the tribe, to what extent they're comfortable killing innocent Muslims, and to what extent they focus on local grievances," said Shadi Hamid, a researcher with the Brookings Institution's outpost in Doha. A security expert who advises the Abu Dhabi government and preferred not to be named said that for the most part, al Qaeda only operates as a unified network in marketing and recruitment, or when one branch needs help. "Each one as a different leadership. Al Qaeda in Afghanistan is not giving orders," said the consultant. As the brand expands, is it wearing thin? "There's no doubt," says Hamid. "Al Qaeda doesn't have the kind of ideological strength it had back in 2004. It's hard to take it seriously as an organization that's offering an alternative model for Arab populations." But people still sympathize with al Qaeda's stated causes, he says – chiefly, the rights of Palestinians and anger about U.S. support for dictators. Dr. Fares Braizat, a pollster and political scientist, says that in his native Jordan views of al Qaeda as a "legitimate resistance" dropped from 67 percent in 2004 to 20 percent in 2005, after a spate of domestic attacks. "Since 2005 the figure has fluctuated," he said. "Roughly a third sees it as legitimate, a third sees it as a terrorist organization, a third says they don't know. That largely applies around the region." More links:

QUIET REVOLUTION: SAUDI WOMEN IN THE WORKPLACE There's a quiet revolution happening in Saudi Arabia, where inches of change have created an expanse of new freedoms and opportunities for women in the workplace. Women make up an estimated 15 percent of the Saudi labor force, up from nearly nothing a generation ago. The advent of ATM machines and women's bank branches has meant a world of financial freedom – accelerated by banks competing to manage the $12 billion in personal wealth held by Saudi women. The Kingdom's women outnumber men on college campuses – in part because men have more opportunity to study abroad, but it creates a glut of educated Saudi women looking to put their skills to work. Meanwhile, a top-down commitment to reform is encouraging more industries to hire them. Anecdotally, Saudi women tell me the right to drive is not their top priority (they say dropping the need for a male guardian is more important). But here is where the driving ban can really pinch: for middle- and low-income families, whose mothers go out to earn a much-needed second salary, much of it gets spent on her driver. Economic necessity is pushing the change. I've visited two factories that put low-income women to work, making light fixtures and packing boxes of biscuits. Many of the women were divorced, widowed, or abandoned; just five years ago they would have suffered for the chance to earn a living wage. In both companies, owners said that Saudi woman work better, harder, and more efficiently than their male counterparts – creating a growing preference for women workers that's accelerating their drive into the workforce. Reem Asaad has led a successful boycott against Saudi lingerie shops that only hire male clerks. She calls it 'humiliating' for women to discuss their unmentionables with men, especially in a Kingdom that strictly separates the sexes, and sees it as another way women are locked out of the workplace. As we patrolled the malls of Jeddah, checking on lingerie shops, she used her background as an economist to explain the rationale: "I needed to inform these women of their power as consumers and that the industry is living off their pockets, that given this power they can do a lot more," she said. "Things were unacceptable and I just said, you know what? I'm not going to take it anymore." If there's a brain trust and beachhead for the rights of working women it's the Khadijah Bint Khowailid Center of the Jeddah Chamber of Commerce and Industry. A government body that lobbies for reform, the Center is named for the Prophet Mohammed's first wife, a successful businesswoman who was at one point a single, working mother. At the Center she's seen as a strategic role model and patron saint: with today's businesswomen pulling their example from Islam's holy texts, how could Saudi's conservative clerics object? But still, they do. The head of the Khadijah Bint Khowailid Center described to me the result of their small wins and frequent setbacks. "Sometimes we change something in law, but we can't get it enforced in practice. Other times we'll change a reality or social mindset, but we can't change the law," said Dr. Basmah Al Omair. She and Assad and others are the agents of change – clearing the way for greater freedoms that are always at risk of reversal, but are being baked into the attitudes and expectations of a new generation.More links:

The ABC (Anybody But 'Cain) Coalition gains ground!
Here's another interesting fact about John McCain's supposedly "commanding" lead.
The following is taken from RealClearPolitics.com:
* the "Anybody But 'Cain" coalition is made up of delegates chosen for the following candidates:
The way that the Republican primary rules work is that candidates get a disproportional amount of delegates for simply finishing with a plurality. McCain is a minority candidate with a plurality of delegates.
It's still possible for the ABC coalition to forge ahead in the coming three months and mathematically eliminate John McCain!

Amazing Grace: The History and Theology of Calvinism (DVD)
Download the Free Study Guide!
Just what is Calvinism?
Does this teaching make man a deterministic robot and God the author of sin? What about free will? If the church accepts Calvinism, won't evangelism be stifled, perhaps even extinguished? How can we balance God's sovereignty and man's responsibility? What are the differences between historic Calvinism and hyper-Calvinism? Why did men like Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Spurgeon, Whitefield, Edwards and a host of renowned Protestant evangelists embrace the teaching of predestination and election and deny free will theology?
This is the first video documentary that answers these and other related questions. Hosted by Eric Holmberg, this fascinating three-part, four-hour presentation is detailed enough so as to not gloss over the controversy. At the same time, it is broken up into ten "Sunday-school-sized" sections to make the rich content manageable and accessible for the average viewer.

Go Stand Speak (DVD)
With "preaching to the lost" being such a basic foundation of Christianity, why do many in the church seem to be apathetic on this issue of preaching in highways and byways of towns and cities?
Is it biblical to stand in the public places of the world and proclaim the gospel, regardless if people want to hear it or not?
Does the Bible really call church pastors, leaders and evangelists to proclaim the gospel in the public square as part of obedience to the Great Commission, or is public preaching something that is outdated and not applicable for our day and age?
These any many other questions are answered in this documentary.

The Silent Scream (DVD) Eight Languages
"When the lives of the unborn are snuffed out, they often feel pain, pain that is long and agonizing." – President Ronald Reagan to National Religious Broadcasters Convention, January 1981
Ronald Reagan became convinced of this as a result of watching The Silent Scream – a movie he considered so powerful and convicting that he screened it at the White House.
The modern technology of real-time ultrasound now reveals the actual responses of a 12-week old fetus to being aborted. As the unborn child attempts to escape the abortionist's suction curette, her motions can be seen to become desperately agitated and her heart rate doubles. Her mouth opens – as if to scream – but no sound can come out. Her scream doesn't have to remain silent, however … not if you will become her voice. This newly re-mastered version features eight language tracks and two bonus videos.
"…a high technology "Uncle Tom's Cabin" arousing public opinion just as Harriet Beecher Stowe's 1852 antislavery novel ignited the abolitionist movement." – Sen. Gordon Humphrey, Time Magazine

Abit TH7-RAID Motherboard Review
For those who just have to have a Pentium4, Abit has a board for you. But is this lauded board any good? To find out, just head on over to Overclockers New Zealand and see their latest review of the Abit TH7-RAID Motherboard. here's a snip:
"Abit includes an onboard diagnostic display which shows different codes in case anything goes wrong. A list of post-codes with explanations is in the user's manual for easy reference. Next to the diagnostic display are two tiny buttons and one is for power on and the other is the reset button. Most people wouldn't use them because there are two buttons which do the same things on your case. However, some players have their PCs without any case might like the idea. An easy access to the power and reset functions without extra wiring. I use Senfu DIY house which doesn't need to use these two onboard buttons anyway. The design is good idea for a very specific group of tweakers."

"AOpen's philosophy, as far as features are concerned, is based on a pay for what you want. This board supports their Diagnostic LED module, but you'll need to get it separately. There wasn't any option for a RAID controller or Dual BIOS. However, a Network port is built on top of the USB ports for Network connectivity. A USB header is also present for additional USB ports, but the board was not bundled with an extra USB cable to take advantage of the header."

"EPoX has definitely released a quality product in the 8KTA3. With the optional RAID setup, this motherboard can really come alive. The definite presence of an overclocker friendly feel gives it the power it needs to overcome the small hurdles that hold it back from being a top choice. I did notice that this motherboard boots into Windows 2000 extremely fast. Granted there is not a ton of files on the drive, it still screams to the desktop and awaits your readiness.

IWill KK266Plus Motherboard Review
Looks like this motherboard has been getting quite a workout lately, but why mess with success? Go see the folks at amdmb.com and see what they thought of the IWill KK266Plus Motherboard. here's a snip:
"Overclocking on all Iwill boards is a dream come true for most hardware enthusiasts! Offering every option to be edited in the bios (with the exception of the 100 MHz / 133 MHz jumper), Iwill has made a name for themselves in the overclocking arena. The KK266Plus does not break this tradition. Pushing upwards of a 170 MHz FSB on an underclocked Athlon 1.4 GHz, this easily beats the best I have used before hand. Of course, to get speeds near this, you have to have some kick ass SDRAM, such as Corsair's. Overall I was able to push the Athlon Thunderbird 1.4 GHz to a great 1.65 GHz with air-cooling. Several other motherboards have reached this speed, but not 170 MHz FSBs!"

No. I mean yes. I mean no. Alanis Morissette on "American Idol?" I mean, really?
While I can see where she is very qualified to do the job, I just don't see where Alanis will be able to pull in the ratings, and here sitting next to Mariah Carey would be odd. Yes, their both celebrity moms and could probably spend their commercial breaks talking about their kids, but I don't see that happening. Mariah is a diva. Alanis is… Alanis. Alanis always brings me back to the year of 1994. Mariah would be rocking stiletto heels that would cost as much as my last year's salary while Alanis would come to the show wearing flannels. I really don't see where putting them next to each would be a good idea.
Take a look at our photo gallery of a very cheerful Alanis and tell us, would you like to see her on Idol? Would she be a good fit?

Talk:Vertical search
This entire page feels like an outdated term paper written by a junior-college business student - it is simply awful and increasingly useless. Somehow it is also promotional, like it could be used in said business student's first proposal to an IT department.
Like consumers, businesses use the Internet for a variety of needs.
If the dentist performs a Google search on the keyword "ceramics",
I would think a dentist would be a bit more specific with searches, unless they actually want to find cermaics of all possible kinds.
This article is an embarassment to Wikipedia. I would completely revise it, but after reading the article, I actually feel I know less about this subject. As noted on this talk page I also have a sneaking suspicion that my edits would be reversed. --Elikser (talk) 07:12, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
Scottwrites (talk) 22:56, 7 April 2008 (UTC) I'm thinking this article is a bit dated. It mostly considers "vertical" search as a business function. What about Web vs. Blogs vs. Video vs. Forums, etc. These are all what most seem to consider vertical aspects of search. In this case, it's by multimedia type. Then there's things like local and other geographic search, not to mention more esoteric specialties like chemicals or other non-textual type searches. (I'd maybe refer to these as "Symbolic Search." (Yeah, I think I like that.)
Anyway, I'm thinking this whole article needs to be re-cast in light of how the term vertical search is being used. I'll wait and see if there's any discussion here before I consider a major revision.
Test Should search engines created with Google Coop be considered as vertical search sites? I don't think so, but maybe I'm wrong. (unsigned comment by Kiani 2006-12-05T23:15:59 )
Rupert Black (talk) 13:59, 16 January 2008 (UTC) I have been trying to post a link in the references section to a download of the "Vertical Search Survey 2008" and it keeps getting taken out by an editor - I find this quite annoying as the survey contains good information, and is similar to the download facility used by other contributors to this page. Rupert Black Rupert Black (talk) 13:59, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
- Its a Survey, not a resource about the subject. see Wikipedia:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_a_soapbox--Hu12 (talk) 14:53, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
Not sure if that's possible, but this sounds like an advertisement. (of an entire business field) 126.96.36.199 18:33, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
- It is an advertisement. 184.108.40.206 (talk) 20:03, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
I added in depth analysis of vertical search engine and broad base search engine, article is as follows, do not delete it.Any deletion for this is absolutely with no reason. I find the exciting content is very much towards towards advertising on LookSmart.
Other important factors why vertical search engines co-exist with general search are its in-depth description/profile of an advertiser. Examples are BaiDu is a general search engine in Chinese language. Alibaba.com is a vertical search engine for china import/export manufactures. User doing Baidu search can probably find advertisers of Alibaba.com, but because Aliaba.com provides more rating and in-depth service profile of the advertiser, it still co-exist with BaiDu and provides buyer with more valuable information. On US market, B to C side you can consider eBay.com as a vertical commerce site, because it has user ratings on merchants which are not available in Google. So does Yelp.com where rating is the differentiator of this site. Amazon.com is again a B to C vertical search site for books and now varieties of commerce with ratings. On B to B side, BuyerZone.com connects small business buyer and seller. RequestFill.com connects IT requester and IT service providers. Again all vertical search engines has overlapping area on advertisers with general search engine, but vertical search engine provides much more in-depth search process with advertiser's service profile and rating in place and therefore gets more serious buyers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 03:29, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
- How can you possibly know the reasons people would have for editing Wikipedia? Everything has a reason. This information is not exciting, it is promotional. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 20:03, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
This category description for Vertical Search is a complete mess - last external link in 2006????? A paragraph on Looksmart??? I tried posting two recent articles from ReadWriteWeb and SearchEngineLand giving a listing of vertical search sites and it was edited out..... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.127.116.11 (talk) 02:24, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

5 Stocks Setting Up to Break Out
A biopharmaceutical player that's trading within range of triggering a major breakout is Vivus (VVUS - Get Report), which is engaged in development and commercialization of therapeutic drugs for large underserved markets, including obesity and related morbidities, such as sleep apnea and diabetes and men's sexual health. This is one of the hottest stocks in 2012, with shares up over 120%.
If you take a look at the chart for Vivus, you'll notice that this stock has been trending within a range of around $18 to $25.14 a share for the past month. This range-bound trend is helpful because it will make it easier to identify the next major move for VVUS. That trend looks to be setting up for a move to the upside since the stock is currently within a shouting distance of making new highs.
>>5 Big Stocks to Trade for Gains
Traders should now look for long-biased trades if VVUS can manage to break out above Thursday's high of $23.75 and some near-term overhead resistance at $25.15 a share with high-volume. Look for volume off a sustained move and close above those levels that registers near or well above its three-month average action of 6.6 million shares. If we get that action soon, then look for VVUS to make a big spike to the upside since the shorts will probably cover quickly with the stock making new 52-week highs. I would simply avoid this stock if that breakout never triggers with volume, or if VVUS breaks back below $19.55 to $18 with high volume. If those levels are ever lost on the downside then this stock could fill some of that huge gap up from back in February. Follow @stockpickrCheck Out Our Best Services for Investors

Be Cool (eBook)
Be Cool (eBook)
After one triumph and one flop, Mafia loanshark-turned-Hollywood producer Chili Palmer is desperate for another hit...of the celluloid sort. And when a similarly relocated former mob associate takes a hit of the bullet-in-the-brain variety while they're power-lunching, Chili begins to see all kinds of story possibilities. The whacked recording company mogul's midday demise is leading Chili into the twisted world of rock stars, pop divas, and hip-hop gangstas, which is rife with drama, jealousy, and betrayal -- all the stuff that makes big box office. Tinsel Town had better take cover, because Chili Palmer's working on another movie. And that's when people tend to die.

Clinton Talks Cooperation In Resource-rich Arctic
With 160 countries having signed on, the Obama administration is making a new push for U.S. Senate approval. Refusal puts the U.S. at risk of getting frozen out of its share of the spoils.
Arguing for its ratification at a recent Senate hearing, Clinton said the treaty would offer the U.S. oil and gas rights some 600 miles into the Arctic. She said American companies were "equipped and ready to engage in deep seabed mining," but needed to join the treaty to take exploit oil, gas and mineral reserves.
On Saturday, in the eight-nation Arctic Council's home city, she stressed that the international agreement "sets down the rules of the road that protect freedom of navigation and provides maritime security, serving the interest of every nation that relies on sea lanes for commerce and trade."
The Arctic's warming is occurring at least twice as fast as anywhere else, threatening to raise sea levels by up to 5 feet this century and possibly causing a 25 percent jump in mercury emissions over the next decade. The changes could threaten polar bears, whales, seals and indigenous communities hunting those animals for food, not to mention islands and low-lying areas much farther away, from Florida to Bangladesh.
The changing climate also is changing the realm of what is possible from transportation to tourism, with the summer ice melting away by more than 17,000 square miles each year. During the most temperate days last year, only one-fifth of the Arctic Circle was ice-covered. Little of the ice has been frozen longer than two years, which is harder for icebreakers to cut through. Europeans see new shipping routes to China that, at least in the warmth and sunlight of summer, are 40 percent faster than traveling through the Indian Ocean, the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean Sea. A northwest passage between Greenland and Canada could significantly speed cargo traveling between the Dutch shipping hub of Rotterdam and ports in California.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I heard you can see turtles laying eggs on some beaches in Bocas Del Toro, but you can only see them at night. Is this correct? Since water taxis don't run at night, what's the best/cheapest way to see them?
Could we pay some guy with a boat to take us to the turtles at night and then take us back to town the same night? How much would that be?
Has anyone done this before?
