An exclusive riverfront setting for business and leisure travelers.
This property's claim to fame is that it is the city's only hotel on the riverfront. But that isn't all it has going for it. Its location among the shops, restaurants and nightclubs of Station Square is a plus, as is its discreet, tasteful décor. The dark brown and hunter green tones of the guest rooms and suites give them a clubby feel, while lighter-colored carpets and curtains keep things from getting too somber. All sorts of configurations and extras are available, whether you want a view of the river, a cozy sitting area or a more exclusive Club Level accommodation. Business features range from in-room voice mail, wireless Internet access and data ports to 27 meeting and function rooms. The hotel's Pittsburgh Rare steakhouse was named the city's best new restaurant in 2002 by the readers of Pittsburgh magazine. Health facilities include an indoor pool and fitness center. A limited courtesy shuttle is offered to locations downtown within three miles.

Hundreds lined the streets in downtown Elmira Friday to watch as the annual Downtown Elmira Holiday Parade came through.
The parade, in its 57th year, is sponsored by Community Bank, N.A. and maintains the holiday-storybook-fantasy theme as was originally intended when it premiered in 1956.
Despicable Me, Adventure Time and Christmas Magic floats debuted this year, joining over 250 other characters - some of which are still original costumes from the parade's beginning.
Santa and Mrs. Claus made their usual appearance at the end of the parade to welcome the official start of the Christmas season.

The last few weeks for footballers going sick is shocking.
So can I extend best wishes to Trevor Francis and hope he recovers quickly and healthy.
Despite the obvious rivalries and what we have said about Trevor over the years then of course this transcends this. I am sure all Villa fans of the right mind will say the same.

after all this, my english teacher asked me the same , and tell me that is necesary eat meat, and that i should start again.
a few days later another guy get on facebook and change his profile picture and in the description he put "MY ACHIVMENTS! IM SO PROUND!!!!!!" in the picture you can see died animals and he was with a gun I MEAN… HOW CAN THEY BE PROUND OF THAT?!! –
SO… i wanna take action, thats why im gonna explain a presentation in which one i will include many facts, i already have a lot, but if you have ideas, videos i will include in the presentation, please send to me your ideas AND LETS SHARE OUR WAY TO THINK TO THIS POOR PEOPLE..

@lilarangel, I absolutely adore this idea. I hope you'll share photos when you're finished, not only to earn points but also for your fellow street teamers to see.
Definitely contact peta2 before you get this all going, they will be a tremendous help – trust me! 🙂You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

This sounds like a HUGE project that you're attempting to do!
I agree with @YesWayJose -email peta2 so that they can hook you up with some materials.
A lot of great material, though. If anything, you'd be short on time.
Do you already have an assignment that you are planning this for, or is this a project that you are trying to plan on your own?
If it is the latter, perhaps you could set it up in a way so that people can come and go (because unless it is a mandatory school thing, they probably will) and still get the main message across.
Again, if it is the latter, do you have anyone else near you that can help you plan out the project? I know there is a page here somewhere where you can email peta2 about it…
If it is an assignment you are planning for, then just ignore that whole last paragraph…You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Hey @lilarangel,
It's awesome that you want to take action in your school for animals. There a lot of campaigns that peta2 has to help you spread the message across. Email: [email protected] so they can hook you up with materials and tips on how to help animals in your school.

Well i added the video "free me" also i called the.presentation "free me" and talk about the animals are not here to suffer for the things we do, i added the story of the elephants, i wanna wake up on them the feelings, show that the animals are treating in that way because they cant fight back, i wanna show that the animals are not products, that they have feelings, and is not fair use their lives. The final message is: they have the right to know what life should beYou must be logged in to reply to this topic.

The number of job vacancies grew by 8.1 percent from one year ago, to 96,000 during fourth quarter 2015. Statewide, the greatest number of vacancies were in the Health Care & Social Assistance industry, followed by Accommodation & Food Service, Retail Trade, and Manufacturing. The statewide median wage offer was $13.54 per hour.
About 56,000 or 58.3 percent of job vacancies were located in the Twin Cities seven-county area, while the remaining 40,000 vacancies were located in Greater Minnesota.
Statewide, there was a one-to-one ratio between job seekers and job vacancies, the lowest ratio on record during a fourth quarter. This indicates that the labor market continues to tightened as baby boomers retire and the number of jobs continues to grow.

AbstractWheel-bearings easily acquire defects due to their high-speed operating conditions and constant metal-metal contact, so defect detection is of great importance for railroad safety. The conventional spectral kurtosis (SK) technique provides an optimal bandwidth for envelope demodulation. However, this technique may cause false detections when processing real vibration signals for wheel-bearings, because of sparse interference impulses. In this paper, a novel defect detection method with entropy, time-spectral kurtosis (TSK) and support vector machine (SVM) is proposed. In this method, the possible outliers in the short time Fourier transform (STFT) amplitude series are first estimated and preprocessed with information entropy. Then the method extends the SK technique to the time-domain, and extracts defective frequencies from reconstructed vibration signals by TSK filtering. Finally, the multi-class SVM was applied to classify bearing defects. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated using real wheel-bearing vibration signals. Experimental results show that the proposed method provides a better performance in defect frequency detection and classification than the conventional SK-based envelope demodulation.

The three metre-long python appeared about an hour into the Qantas flight.
"Halfway to Papua New Guinea passengers reported seeing a snake clinging to the wing," Qantas said.
A crew member said that the initial reaction was "you've got to be kidding".
The stowaway was believed to have slithered on to the plane from scrubland or mangroves that surround the airport in tropical Cairns.
Qantas said there was no impact on the safe operation of the aircraft and the snake, unfortunately, was found dead on arrival.
Snakes On A Plane, which starred Samuel L Jackson, was released in 2006.
The film's director, David Ellis, died earlier this week at 60.

Opinion: Tenant board members - help or hindrance?
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing
By Alistair McIntosh, chief executive, Housing Quality Network
I see that a few tenants made the list of top power-players. Well done. But will we soon be saying good-bye to them? Is it the end of the road for tenant board members? Are they a help or a hindrance as we face up to new challenges?
On the one hand it looks like housing associations are in great shape. But will the surpluses stay high for much longer? Things do change. Can interest rates really stay this low? If they went back to their long term average it would wipe out half of the surplus. Housing associations in London do well out of selling homes. Will prices keep rising? I have no idea. It's above my pay grade. You need to ask Mr Putin. I have a feeling he might be harder to deal with than Mr Ashby.
And while I am piling on the doom and gloom, let's not forget about welfare reform. All your rent is about to go straight into the hands of publicans and bingo callers. Well it is if you think the same way as people who went to school near Slough.
It is no surprise that we want to boost the quality of our boards. There are stormy times ahead. We want the best. Even those people who worship Polly Toynbee think it is time to boot the tenants out of the boardroom. Let's bring in people with commercial skills instead. That's what we need, they say.
Well I don't agree. Why can't we treat people with a bit of respect? You get good and bad board members from all walks of life. I have met some fantastic tenant board members.
Do you remember when Professor Cave took a look at what we do? One tenant blew him away with her ruthlessness. She refused point blank to take on permanent staff on pensions to deal with the Decent Homes spike. Temporary staff could do the job just as well for less money, and they were easier to get rid of.
I was working on a scheme to turn an estate into the New Jerusalem. One of the tenants could run the sums quicker than the global accountants. The lady ran a stall in the market. She could fill a colander full of fruit and move her mind at the speed of the Hadron Collider at the same time.
We don't want to lose these people do we? There are millions of tenants out there. So by the law of averages there must be more great board members amongst them. Let's step up the effort to find them and train them. In some ways tenant board members can help the business the most.
What is one of the biggest opportunities for you? There is gold in them there council HRAs. How do you do a deal with councils? A lot of the time you need to win over a tenant vote. In the old days this was why stock transfer landlords had tenants on the board. You could not sell the idea any other way. The song remains the same. If you have tenants on your board you go to the front of the queue.
I can hear some of you spluttering that this is all nonsense. It is far better to put tenants to work on scrutiny. And some of you do this really well. A lot of the time it is not so hot. What is the number one problem I see here? Landlords don't give tenants enough information to get their teeth into. The HCA says that they cannot make head nor tail of what associations are telling them about VfM. What hope do tenants have? Tenant board members did not cause all the problems that we face. But they look set to become the victims. When they go who will get the blame for the next crisis?
As someone once said: First they came for the tenants, and I did not speak out – Because I was not a tenant. Then they came for the councillors, and I did not speak out – Because I was not a councillor. Then they came for me – and there was no one left to speak for me.

When shy Goth girl Megan (Rainbow Harvest) moves to a new town with her recently widowed mother (Karen Black), she has a bit of trouble fitting in with her peers. Taunted by her classmates, she does manage to begin a friendship with a two teens from school, Nikki and Ron. While unpacking at her new house, Megan discovers an antique mirror that manages to keep reappearing, even after it is taken out with the trash. Soon Megan finds that the mirror holds the power to grant wishes. For a price, that is... (Insert evil laughter here).
Medical dummies are just plain creepy. Even creepier? When said dummy is used by an emotionally distant father, who uses his ventriloquist skills to make his children believe that it's alive, which is the case in the 1988 flick "Pin". A father (Terry O'Quinn) uses a life size medical dummy named Pin to communicate with his children, Leon and Ursula. Ursula knows that it is just a dummy, but Leon believes Pin is real. But when both parents are killed in a car accident, Leon and Ursula must cope with their death.
In celebration of the upcoming Valentine's Day holiday, I thought we'd take a look at a movie that reflects the true meaning of the holiday: blood and guts and crazy people. The movie "Lovers Lane" takes the plot of an old urban legend we've all heard before and turns it into a slasher flick. An escaped mental patient with a hook in place of his hand, returns to a town 13 years after he murdered lovers lane sweethearts to continue his reign of terror on unsuspecting teens. Watch for Anna Faris as a cheerleader!
I tend to pride myself on the crazy amounts of crappy horror movies that I can tolerate and most of the time, enjoy. So when I was home sick from work this week, Netflix Instant Watch became my best friend.
Drew Barrymore stars in this low budget thriller as 14 year old Joleen Cox, an angsty teen who is finishing a cross country trip with her dad when they run out of gas in a small desert town in Nevada. They wind up stuck in an old trailer park full of every stereotypical trashy character you can think of. While Joleen's father is searching for gas and chatting up fellow stranded drivers, Joleen catches the eye of two of the local boys. Admist all this, there's a killer on the loose, who seems to be targeting Joleen.
Ok, so let's just get this out in the open: If you haven't already figured it out, I am a fan of truly awful 80's cheese. I mean I like some REALLY bad stuff. Like "Uninvited," a movie about a cute cuddly kitty who has a mean mutant kitty living in it's mouth that kills people. The movie is full of bad dialogue, bad acting, bad special effects and tons of cheese. It's the perfect movie to watch with a bunch of friends and a case (or three) of beer.
Ok, ok, ok. So, technically this movie does not take place on New Year's Eve or Day, but when a group of shipwrecked teens take shelter in an abandoned hotel, it's decorated for New Years, even though it's the middle of summer. And basically what ensues is a ghost story-meets "The Evil Dead" type of tale, full of spooks, time warps, zombies and demonic possessions. A few decent scares and fun cheese can't quite make up for the bad effects and lack of logic, but at least the story line attempts to be original. It's worth a look if you are a fan of 80's cheese.
When most of us think about Christmas, it's only natural that we think of nazi experiments involving elves, am I right? That's right, today we are taking a look back at the 1989 Christmas classic, "Elves." Now try to follow me with this plot: Troubled teen Kirsten and her friends hold a seance ritual in the woods and awaken an elf. Not elves as the movie title suggests. Just. One. Elf.
When I heard about the Shock-O-Rama movie, "Chainsaw Sally," about a girl (April Monique Burril) who is a quiet librarian by day and a chainsaw wielding killer by night, I knew I just had to see it. Written and directed by Jimmyo Burril, the film is quite entertaining although the production quality and acting is, at times, a bit cringeworthy. The film not only features cameos by Gunnar Hansen and Herschell Gordon Lewis, but it has also inspired a web series, "The Chainsaw Sally Show."
I'm not sure how a gem like this could have come out in 2006 and I completely missed it.
3 college stoners (who bear an uncanny resemblance to some of my high school boyfriends) find an ad for an evil bong (named Eebie). The more they use this bong, the more humanlike characteristics the bong develops, eventually drawing from their very souls!

...............Dr.Geller on Arikace...ECFS Conference terry_insm Jun 9, 2013 1:58 PM
Will Lewis said at last presentation that we would not hear from the company again until initial results are announced....guess who is pushing this conference as something worthwhile to shareholders ( 10 days till News! insight to P3 trials!!!-.......... its not. You wont hear a peep about the trial results that matter to investors.
The conference is surely for medical types and many of the latest advances in the CF area, and can be informative. Months after the initial Phase3 results for EU only are announced scientific papers will emerge.
A US trial for Phase3 CF should be of interest, if results look "compelling", I'll be riding that rocket,but like Iplex and other hype= show me. Good Luck
Lewis clearly suggested that we would be hearing the carry-forward numbers (into the follow-on study) within a week or two.
That won't be a rocket you'll be riding Terry - although it may feel like one.
when did he say that?

Two years after the events of the Audiobook of the Year - The Chopin Manuscript - former war crimes investigator Harold Middleton and his Volunteers once again must crack a secretive conspiracy that not only threatens their lives, but the stability of the world. Their race against time will take them from London to the U.S. to Russia and beyond. And at the heart of it all is one question: What is the secret of the Copper Bracelet?
Sixteen of the world's greatest thriller writers collaborated on The Copper Bracelet. Once again, as he did with The Chopin Manuscript, Jeffery Deaver wrote the first chapter. Then, each successive author wrote a chapter in turn, finally returning it to Deaver to complete this thrilling sequel.
The Copper Bracelet was written by:
Jeffery Deaver
Gayle Lynds
David Hewson
Jim Fusilli
John Gilstrap
Joseph Finder
Lisa Scottoline
David Corbett
Linda Barnes
Jenny Siler
David Liss
P.J. Parrish
Brett Battles
Lee Child
Jon Land
James Phelan
PROJECT EDITOR: Jim Fusilli
©2009 International Thriller Writers, Inc., Jeffery Deaver, Gayle Lynds, David Hewson, Jim Fusilli, John Gilstrap, Joseph Finder, Lisa Scottoline, David Corbett, Linda Barnes, Jenny Siler, David Liss, P.J. Parrish, Brett Battles, Lee Child, Jon Land, James Phelan; (P)2009 Audible, Inc.
"This was like playing on an all-star team, and all the hits were home runs." (Lee Child)
"A feast for the senses, The Copper Bracelet continues the standard of excellence established by The Chopin Manuscript. Action, intrigue, suspense, they are all there. Another certified no-question-about-it-winner from a remarkable collection of talent. Bravo." (Steve Berry)
"What a blast to collaborate with some of the greatest suspense writers around on the thriller event of the year." (Joseph Finder)
"I can't think of a more enjoyable writing experience in my twenty-five years of being a fiction author than writing The Copper Bracelet and its predecessor, The Chopin Manuscript. We writers spend way too much time by ourselves in dark rooms, and it was a delight to emerge from the cave and hang out, so to speak, with my peers. I have to say that I sat down to read the manuscript with more than little trepidation. I needn't have worried. I was blown away...[and was] fascinated to see how a group of authors with vastly varied writing styles and approaches to creativity produced such a cohesive thriller with a relentlessly fast-paced narrative. (And, okay, I'll admit, I got a voyeur's kick in seeing how my talented co-authors ply their craft.)" (Jeffery Deaver)
"The reader was good"
It seemed like the authors were involved in a private joke to see who could outdo the others with ridiculous killings and blow ups that had little context. It was almost funny.
There is no plot and the characters are 2-dimensional at best. I loved the name "Harold Middleton" though, and the reader gave him the perfect voice.
I so enjoyed the farce of the Chopin Manuscript, but this farce was not clever and fell flat.
"Copper Bracelet Review"
Disappointing at best. Disjunctive and lack of flow. Plot was mundane and the story line was shallow.
I downloaded the free chapter one by Jeffery Deaver and was looking forward to the rest of the book. Now I know why the price was dropped to $9.95. I kept falling asleep trying to finish it, and couldn't remember what what had been happening. I finished it, but it was a lot of work!
Nuff Said!
"Less of quite enough"
Mediocre at best.
"The Copper Bracelet"
Good book but too many authors- They each took on a different style and I did not enjoy it as much as some of the others
"Difficult to Follow"
This was hard to listen to, it jumped all over the place and I had a hard time keeping track of it. Albeit I only got to the third chaper before I just stopped. It was just too confusing.
"Magic Doesn't Strike Twice"
I am so disappointed with this. Maybe if it was released in serial again, it would have been better, but the chapters didn't flow together, and I didn't even bother to finish it. It was disjointed and boring--I didn't bond with any of the characters. The first was such magic, I'm very sad this was so bad.
"Like Playing Telephone"
Molina's talents and some interesting characters kept me from awarding one star. The narration is wonderful! I loved The Chopin Manuscript, despite the jerky-at-times plot, so was disappointed and then increasingly irritated by the Copper Bracelet. With an ingenious central idea and already-established characters, the authors still seemed to deliver an unsatisfying whole. My take was that multiple excellent and experienced authors, given this task of advancing a plot handed off to them, felt it was important to make a mark in the plot and (nearly always) sent the story in a different direction. In their own books, surely, there are chapters that stabilize a plot or advance the characters a bit. Not here! Every chapter has a BOOM! The result was that I became increasingly frustrated and eventually abandoned the listen about 3/4 of the way through. Thus my take on the endeavor as a whole. For me, it was a lot like stories we tell to occupy children on a car trip: everyone takes a turn and hands off an improbable twist. Thus some entertaining episodes, but not a very satisfying whole. Well, except for Molina's steady and experienced hand.
Am nearing 84, have 3 children, 5 grandchildren and 1 half Japanese great grandson all delightful. Enjoy listening & reading
"Don't bother a total waste of time & money"
Did any of the co-authors read Jeffery Deaver's opening premise or did they just make up anything that came to mind without continuity in mind. I enjoy most of the co-authors' books so this one was 10 times more disappointing. To my mind it should never have been published.
"Sounded like what it was"
A bunch of good authors (among them a few of my favorites) having fun and entertaining themselves. Alfred Molina did a great job with it. It was not more than "ok" though because it was just too obvious what was going on.

Save or suck Medusa petrification
Did anyone else happen to notice the Medusa's save or suck pertrification?
It's either make a save or avoid the gaze and have disadvantage to your attacks against it with it getting advantage to attacking you(though, the text seems a little confusing), unless you're surprised, in which case, you're rolling for a save.
Save or suck ruined more than a few games for me in the past. Having this stupidity brought back is not a good thing. In fact, it irritates me more than vancian being brought back.

Not surprised they went this way but I think it is deeply retrograde step which trades the suspense of turning to stone or two rounds or so (where something can be done) for the old style D&D feel.

I suspect both the creature and the mechanic are there as playtest bait.

Here's the real test for the Medusa:
Take any person who hasn't played D&D yet is at least familiar with some Greek mythology (hell, Percy and the Lightning Theif counts). Tell them they are standing in front of a Medusa.
What do they do? They close or avert their eyes. Why do they do that? Otherwise they'll be turned to stone in an instant.
For the Medusa to be anything else is simply silly. What you might be looking for is a "creature that has snakes for hair with a gaze that slowly paralyzes and eventually turns you to stone". That's not Medusa though.

Sounds fine to me. Shouldn't you be at a disadvantage if you aren't looking at something you want to hit? shouldn't it be at an advantage. It is a medusa. It is meant to be this bad. (Nice post above Traken).
Honestly all creatures should not be made to fit into some preconceived comfort zone. It should be "Holy crap, a medusa!"
Sorry, but I just don't get that style of play. I like dangerous creatures and this one sounds fine as written to me.
'Those nasty monsters have powers too...oh, that is so unfair, our characters should be the only ones with awesome powers'....b/c that so fits in with the fantasy/mythological literature I read....
Edit: Oh, and maybe we might just see some PCs that actually care about boosting defenses, saves, etc and not just raw attack/damage.

I find unrealistic that male PCs would be looking at her eyes anyway.

I thought this might have some interest: http://simon.incutio.com/archive/2003/10/13/linkRedirects
Yes, I had read that yesterday, and I was really excited until I read the update about page-rank persisting across redirects.
The development team has been discussing how to handle comment spam, and we have some ideas that we'll be fleshing out soon.
is the team also considering comment registration validation (just like in pmachine)?
I'm seeing users of Mt who use the MT_Blacklist plugin written by Jay Allen, although I am more interested in the "security code authentication" used in some sites. It's faster and more painless, at least for the comments. See this entry as an example. I'm not sure if this would make trackbacks remain compatible across different CMSs, you guys know the architecture more than I do. Just another method to consider, that's all
An ironic thing in my case was that I missed the first viagra spam comment post because spamassassin flagged the message from my blog as spam, and I deleted it without really looking. I didn't notice the viagra comment post until someone else posted another spam comment.
So my suggestion is, if you are considering a comment approval system, perhaps it would be better not to include the body of the post in the email to the admin. That way SA or other mail filters won't flag that email.
You could always try configuring SA to whitelist emails from WordPress.... I don't know how to do that off the top of my head, though. I use a combination of SpamAssassin, SpamBouncer, and a customized procmail whitelist, so I just whitelist things in my procmail rules.
Interesting idea over at http://feedster.com/blog/ (today's entry.) Basically, he wonders if the spammers aren't simply targeting file names with 'comments' in name, and suggesting that simply randomly renaming the files (e.g. wpcomments.php to 34kfak23.php) might solve the problem.
Any thoughts?
I just started getting these, too. Looking over the access logs, all 3 comment spams have one thing in common: no referrer. I think I'm going to hack the comment handler to drop anything not referred by my base URL. Maybe it should be even more stringent and drop comments not referred by the parent post's comment URL.
Raising the bar...
Rantor, did you figure out the hack?
Rantor's idea certainly sounds rather nice actually. Clean and simple :) I Like it. It's not Bayesian spam filtering for blog comments, but it might be rather effecticve, for a time at least.
Referers are something that easily can be faked by SpamBots. There are a lot of indications actually that the Bots are parsing forms and stuff, so they most probably have to hit the post itself and then send the comment using the form on the page.
Referrer checking will raise the bar for the moment, but will be useless as soon as a reasonable number of blogs use that.
he he Bayesian filtering for blog bomments (on MT).
I don't really have anything else constructive to add to this discussion, although I will mention (again) the extreme unusability of captch-style blocking, and the impracticality of 'moderated' comments.
On second thought, I have two ideas ;-)
First thought: treat commenters as 'users' and submit for moderation only comments by first-time users only. Once you've approved a comment from a given user (a combination of name/email/url), all futur comments from that user would be automatically approved. I'm assuming that spammers don't care enough to figure this out, or having figured it out, to go through the process of posting a real comment just so they can get the right to post spam.
Another idea would be a kind of 'registration' requirement for blog posting ... where non-registered users would get an email when they posted a comment, and would just click a link in the email. Actually, you could bypass their having to click, if you just embed an image in the email ... then they could validate their comment by either:
a) they get the email, and it loads an image: http://myurl.com/commentvalidation.php?comment=commentID ... which shows up in the browser as a graphic that says something along the lines of "By viewing this image you have verified your identity and your comment has been accepted"
b) they get the email in a text-only email client (or with images disabled) and they have to click the link at the bottom (which goes to the same location)
I like that first-time only moderation.
@Jaykul: Personally I don't like the idea to have a registration for each blog I want to put a quick comment in. I agree that spammers wouldn't bother to figure out how to pass this by this "bar"... as long as they find enough blogs that are completely open for comments. As soon as a critical mass of blogs have introduced spam countermeasures, they will take the time to figure out how they can resume their "job". Writing up a bot that visits each link that is mentioned in an e-mail they fetch from a faked mailbox is trivial - so that won't help for long, I fear. And another problem this method will have: how will you treat trackbacks/pingbacks?
I think that not the legitimate users should suffer from the spam countermeasures, but the spammers. It should still be possible to have anonymous comments, it should still be possible to quickly drop a line without having to hazzle with a registration procedure. This is what makes blogging as interesting as it is.
If the first post was a very minimal registration (email address/name) then as long as they used the same name and email address, they'd be good and there wouldn't be any more of a registration hassle then most of the blogs I visit already have in requireing an email address. We'd be able to keep it open and usable, but provide a light layer of control over who blogs. Not much, but we don't want/need much.
Where is the problem in creating tons of e-mail accounts? It's not. Of course we could start filtering email addresses, but that's just another step that has to be taken. I think there are better methods with less side effects.
If you (the spammer) can spare the bandwith to create tons of email accounts, set up scripts to check them repeatedly for emails and click on all links ... then I have several good ideas:
1) We'll hunt you down using your ISP information, and a subpoena if necessary.
2) We'll sign up your email account (after all, we know it's valid) for some ... uhm .... commercial email ... bucket-loads of it ... if the sheer volume of email doesn't cause problems on it's own, maybe paying for the bandwidth of clicking all those links will give you pause.
3) Maybe someone will even send you viruses, after all, we know your email address, and that you automatically process HTML email and click on links, and not everyone is as nice as I am.
4) If you think that's nasty, wait until the guys over at 2600 hear we have the email accounts of spammers ...
Honestly, I think the idea that a spammer would be willing to go to such lengths, and take such risks, just to post in your blog in the hopes of increasing his Google rating before you spot and delete his post ... is a bit egotistical ... but then, maybe my site's just not very important.
The spammers now are willing to manually submit comment spam, so why shouldn't they be willing to write up a small script that creates tons of e-mail-accounts on one of their domains (or on forreign domains as well) if necessary? What should cause them to stop about thinking of the idea that they could throw together some simple code that polls that list of accounts they created before with the script, having a bot getting each url out of the incoming e-mails and feed them into wget? If that is all they have to do to come by these measures, they will do.
But if they can pass these procedures by this easily, why should we bother to bring them on and burden additional steps on regular users? All we will cause with this is that we'll loose users who write comments on our blogs. And at least I'm not willing to partly destroy my blog this way just in order to get rid of spammers. I think there are better methods to do this, which have less side effects on regular (non-spamming) users.
Do you think they care about the traffic that is generated? They don't at all. Do you think they care whether their own bot-accounts get spammed by others? They don't, why should they? It's just some more URLs their bots have to visit, so what? Viruses? Their bots don't care at all about viruses, because they won't execute them.
Just my 0.02$.
If we see their comments have nothing to do with the entry on the blog, then they are spam, if it does, we pass the comment through and all continuing comments with that name and email address continue to work. We don't share the email address on the site so spammers don't steal it for posting on our blog.
It doesn't matter what their name or email address is. If the comments don't have to do with the entry and have references like "come to my site for free viagra with purchase of 3 bottles" then it's pretty obvious. I don't even need to see the name or email address. It's just the computer that needs to see it for authentication purposes. It would be very difficult to write a script that generated a comment that made sense on my blog entry. It would have to be manual. If they come once and then start using their account to advertise, I ban them and maybe their IP if they do it again.
This seems really easy and perhaps a bit of work on the bloggers part, but not on the commenters. Any solution will require some labor by the blogger to maintain. I don't see any real holes in this. Does anyone else? Is WP going to grab ahold of this?
@flickerfly: Banning IPs only helps for those who use static IPs. Spammers who use static IPs for posting their spam are dumb, and the bad thing is: most spammers are not dumb enough to do this. Bottom line: IP blacklisting will be contraproductive, at least from my point of view. Chances are good that you keep out wanted users instead of spammers.
Ever seen the spam comments here? If you look quickly over them, they seem to fit somehow, not being of the type of "go there and buy my stuff". Such comments are very generic, and can easily be posted by a script.
You ask for the hole in that idea? Well, apart from the problem "how do we handle trackbacks and pingbacks - the *backers won't register at my blog and there is no way of authentication in these 'protocols' at all" there is the biggest one: it's a hazzle for users of the blogs (those people who post comments on your posts) - and that's the worst effect a anti-spam method for blogs can bring along. This way we'll sooner or later loose what blogging made what it is now: it's not really open anymore to everyone.
Again, just my 0.02 $ (and I fear I'll bring up many people against me because I'm arguing this way :))
*backers are the easiest of all to deal with: we just use the moderate once method:
When a (track|ping)back comes in, it gets sent (email?) to me for moderation. I would then add some portion of the URL to my whitelist, and any further *backs from that domain would be let through. (of course, I'd be able to revoke that permission at any time).
This ends up with having a mix of comment moderation and URL filtering - which is what I promote all the time :) Or did I miss something?
It sounds like we are agreed then whitelist the URL for blogs to *back. Something like this in wp_config.php:
white_list_back="http://josiah.ritchietrie.net/b2/", "http://uptime.steidler.net"
(maybe we could combine the *back and email lists, but that would be more confusing for the user I think)
Seems like an easy implementation. Just add a little bit of code to disallow display of a comment/*back until approval and then allow automated approval or deletion according to being matched in the above list.
I'd suggest that if it's in the blacklists that it not even get emailed to the user, but just get logged in a file to check later, just in case a false-positive seems to slip by somehow.
What would be even better would be the ability to send a command to add a commenter to one of the lists through an email kinda like a mailing-list command email, but that might be difficult to manage. Nice feature if it can be done.
Those of you interested in fighting against comment spam are hereby invited to join the efforts of the BlaM! project. Also see here for Jay Allens call to arms.
> That won't work because if a comment's headers indicate it comes
> from the commenter. We're probably going to go the no-body route.
This can easily be taken care of without removing the body of the notes.
Upon WP installation, ask the admin to pick a special comment-moderation password. Have that word used in a WP header ("X-WP-moderation: Fr,37qp" for example) and then it's a simple exercise on nearly any e-mail client to whitelist any message with that header.
Why don't you put this mod into the wordpress realease? It's a necessary feature..
b2evolution has an anti-spam feature already implemented.
I seriously don't understand the idea of blacklists. How can they ever hope to work without a high incidence of false positives? And besides, comment spammers arn't trying to attract blog-readers, they are trying to attract search bots. That's the idea behind comment redirects with white listing... </shameless-plug> ;)
Actually when I was working on that hack I found WP does have some natural defenses against comment throttling, however anyone who views the source code can see how to get around it.
If you're interested in stopping comment spam you should check out one of the latest builds of WP. For reasons documented elsewhere, I think centralized blacklists and registration hoops are destined to fail and are at best stopgap solutions.
I was SUPER surprised to learn that there is no option "Only registered users may comment". There ought to be one, and that would solve most problems.

Latest from the Blog
In celebration of the 20th anniversary of Writing Assessment Services online, I am offering a $20-off coupon good through August for everyone who signs up for the WRASSE Line mailing list. Check the form at the bottom of the page at WritingAssessment.com .
Thirty-four years ago this month I was a 20yo Creative Writing graduate of Florida State University attending a summer crash course to prepare me to teach freshman composition during my graduate career. Two years later, with a fresh M.A. in General Literature Studies, I began teaching all levels of writing full time at Auburn University, and after that I married and taught a bit here and there in community colleges over the years when my children were born. Then twenty years ago this summer I began Writing Assessment Services and have worked with students from grade 5 through college and graduate school and into professional life. But most of my clients have been secondary students the last twenty years.
This fall, though, I have been asked back into the college classroom. I will be a Guest Lecturer for the Grove City College course WRIT 101: Foundations of Academic Discourse. The contract has yet to be finalized, but I passed the background check. :-) This is a very focused course for freshman writers, emphasizing critical thinking and writing for their own disparate disciplines. If you're interested in the fascinating texts we'll be using, the first written by David Hogsette, the Director of the Writing Program, please follow the links below. I'm really looking forward to this return to my teaching roots.
Never fear - I will still be available for private clients through Writing Assessment Services as long as my work load seems manageable. You might want to sign up soon. As I have expanded my work into publishing my own fiction (see RosetteBook.com ), I have also ventured into editing and related author services through Moraine's Edge Books.
Can you tell my youngest child has graduated from high school? :-)
In this Salon piece, "Death to High School English," Kim Brooks, who teaches composition, shares her greatest encouragement in teaching:
[when a student says that] thanks to me, and the hours she herself has put in, she feels as though, in some small way, her writing has improved, or that she knows what she needs to do to improve, or that she can at least envision a future in which she is a better, more confident and more forceful writer of prose, and I tell her that no matter what, no matter how hard it is, she has to keep plowing ahead, because slow but steady progress as a reward for hard work is one of the few things we can count on in this life - if we're lucky, that is - and then I tell myself the same.
For twenty years online I have been basking in such comments, and sometimes watching as my students go on to write for an Ivy league student newspaper, or go to seminary with the promise of writing really good sermons, or even become English teachers themselves. Those are the stars, whose success I may have only a small part in. But for the ones who have a harder time, if I can help them remedy a pesky but debilitating grammar problem, or learn how to structure their writing, or just give them the satisfaction of saying what they mean to say so that others can receive it - those give the greatest satisfaction.
Making a difference, improving someone's writing - that makes this work rewarding. Let me show you how I can help . . .
In celebration of the 20th anniversary of Writing Assessment Services online, I am preparing some great offers for the summer and for the coming school year. Watch this space!

Principal Insurance has had investigators follow me around, "stake-out" my house and my former business and do everything else that they possibly could to discredit my claim and have found nothing.
My doctors have reported that I am unable to work, I have lost my business, spent all of my retirement and have been forced to put my house on the market in order to pay all of my bills and keep my good credit rating. Social Security pays me enough to keep the utilities paid and the family fed but The Principal Insurance Group has not come thru by upholding their end of the contract.
They have offered to pay me $50,000. to settle the claim providing that I surrender my policy. All they have done is postpone this indefinitely hoping that, at some point, I will give up and take what little they offer in a desperate moment.
I have done everything right in my life. I paid My taxes, paid for my own health insurance, and made sure that my employees all had health insurance to cover their families.
The Principal Insurance Group has been given a license to steal from honest, hard working people by selling them a bogus disability insurance policy. The company really has no intention of ever paying disability benefits to people who need them.
I have 5 different life insurance policies with this company, but have had to take all of my cash value out of them and reduce the face values. You would think that they would treat a good customer a little better.
All of my records are well documented. I would really hope that someone in the television industry would do an investigation of this company to expose the real truth.
DO NOT BUY DISABILITY INSURANCE, or anything else FROM THIS COMPANY.

these criminals have hit my checking account on ssveral occasions. 3 this month alone. I have reported them to my state AG but this so called company only has a po address. the phone numbers 7752001525 and7753767646 both have area codes for northern Nevada, but you will not be able to get thru to anyone. I have never dealt with them at all. they have somehow got a hold of my banking info, address and telephone number. I noticed on Rip off report that they have scammed quite a few people. It's time that we all ban together and file a class action suit. Somewhere out there, they do have a legitimate address. We just need to find it out. I'm sure that those of you who have been hit by them probably seen thsoe checks for 30.00 hit your account with an area code for your state too. My bank is currently working with me on this. I have closed my account.
