Péter Róna: Peace Walk saved Hungarian government from being toppled
German Chancellor Angela Merkel and "Western politicians supporting her" have considered the option of toppling the government of Hungary. This claim was made by self-described leftist economist Péter Róna in an interview for the radical leftist publication "168 Óra". Róna … Continue reading

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 526503
software updater stalled on selinux install, and generates bugzilla warning now
Last modified: 2013-01-10 05:36:12 EST
Description of problem: I was running software updater, and half way through download it said it was told to stop (not by me...). I restarted software updater, and it download all the updates again, and started installing them, until it got to the selinux package. It then stalled and after 15 minutes or so the text in the update popup window disappeared. I eventually closed it, and was warned that because it was not responding, it would cancel changes. Sounds good, I hit OK. After that, every time I try to launch software updater, I get the bugzilla report, and a graphic on my desktop about it. Unsure what the status of updates are now, or how to proceed when it won't let me run the updater. Here is the output from the bugzilla window.

It sounds like an update failed part way through, and you have mixed versions of yum/yum-rhn-plugin maybe a couple of others.
You might be able to run "package-cleanup --dupes" and "package-cleanup --problems", which might fix the problem.
If not run:
rpm -q yum yum-rhn-plugin yum-utils yum-metadata-parser
...and I'll tell you what to do.
I tried to run package-cleanup and got a file not found error. Did a search on the entire system and couldn't find it. Herewith the installed yum packages:
package yum-utils is not installed
You have two versions of yum and yum-metadata-parser ... that's not good. Your best bet is probably to goto /var/cache/yum/* and rpm -Uvh the packages directly. Note that you might want to "yum clean metadata" after you've fixed those by hand.
yum-complete-transaction is in yum-utils, you'll probably be able to install it when you get just one version of yum/yum-metadata-parser installed.
Then you can run yum-complete-transaction and/or package-cleanup (but pay attention to what it says it's going to do, don't just blindly say yes if y-c-t wants to delete everything from your system).
[root@ packages]# rpm -q yum-metadata-parser
[root@ packages]# ls -al yum*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1021109 Aug 27 15:26 yum-3.2.22-20.el5.noarch.rpm
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 25948 Apr 22 2009 yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-3.el5.x86_64.rpm
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 57529 Aug 27 15:25 yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.4-13.el5.noarch.rpm
[root@ packages]# rpm -Uvh yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-2.el5
error: open of yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-2.el5 failed: No such file or directory
[root@ packages]# rpm -q yum-utils
package yum-utils is not installed
RPM thinks metadata-parser is installed, but it isn't anywhere on the system, and RPM won't let me uninstall it. By the way, all of this is occurring on a system that is pretty much straight out of the box, and was updated using the menu-based software updater--I didn't install both version, so it must have been a system malfunction, not something "custom" we did on our end.
> rpm -Uvh yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-2.el5
This should be:
rpm -Uvh yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-3.el5.x86_64.rpm
...you may also need to do:
rpm -e yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-2.el5.x86_64
...dito. with the yum problem.
> By the way, all of this is occurring on a
> system that is pretty much straight out of the box, and was updated using the
> menu-based software updater
I understand, what almost certainly happened is that the transaction failed in the middle of an update. Maybe because the GUI updater crashed, maybe due to the selinux update, maybe for another reason.
One you get yum/y-m-p working again, it is much easier to fix the rest of the problems.
If you need any more help fixing yum/y-m-p if you phone support they should be able to walk you through it.
This BZ has not been updated for 2 years.
Closing out as notabug. Feel free to contact Support if this is still an issue.

Scathed Trailer (1995)
01 January 1995 Comedy, Mystery 64 mins
A truly odd little mood piece, it features Matthew Bell (the narrator of Gregory's Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Shocking Truth) as a guy named Joe who stops off for an afternoon beer at a bar where nudists and weirdos prowl around outside. There he strikes up a difficult conversation with a beautiful but not-very-conversant young woman in an eyepatch who tells him about how she wound up at this hole in the wall, a perverse saga involving an iron-fisted owner named Miss Antonia Curis.

Nursing rocker
I love the clean lines of the James Design Mid-century chair rocker. I am not so sure if it's comfortable. While I am not a fan of oversized seating, I do like comfort for seating. I'm not sure if baby will like banging her head on the armrests either. But still, it's a pleasure to see a non-traditional rocker chair. One designed for looks rather than only-functionality like the ones we see at baby stores.
When Hannah was a few weeks old, my husband surprised me with a nursing rocker. It was the sweetest surprise, and I loved it, till I realised I prefer seating without close armrests for feeding because I felt too cramped and baby didn't have much space to move around. We then sold it and I brought in my large yellow armchair.
I like that this rocker has a wide seating area that allows baby to go left or right without hurting her delicate little head.
The Nurseryworks Sleepytime rocker also gets a mention. This is I think the best design for a nursing rocker. I found some of the ones sold in baby stores to be impractical. But this looks like a great one even for storytime later on!
And comfortable for the squished parent.
Miguel makes oh so lush baby furniture! I love the Cassandra baby cot. Upholstered in some space-age fabric it also converts to a toddler and youth bed. So, it's versatile, it's beautiful and looks sturdy.
Being padded, it also looks comfortable.
Nurseryworks has another great crib! The Aerial crib has a personalised panel that you can put almost anything to customise your crib! (via Sparkability) And if you don't like the pink, well, I'm sure some baby safe spray paint can easily change that.
Change table dresser
I love Nurseryworks line that matches my Studio dream crib. They have the dresser and the change table. All have a distinct mid-century feel about them.

Today a new trailer hit for Pokémon Sun and Moon detailing a few characters and the legendary Pokémon on the cover.
The cover Pokémon for Sun and Moon are Solgaleo and Lunala respectfully. Solgaleo is 11' 02," 507.1 lbs., is a Psychic/Steel type (that ironically makes the Sunne Pokémon weak to Fire types) and has the ability of Full Metal Body, which negates stat effects on it by the opponent's ability or moves. Lunala is 13' 01" tall, 264.6 lbs., is a Psychic/Ghost type and has the Shadow Shield ability, which allows it to take less damage from an attack if it has full HP.
The last trailer revealed that it's at the Hawaii-like Alola region, but we now see that it's four islands plus an artificial island. The customizable main character moved to the region recently, and starts his/her's Pokémon adventure. The hero/heroine meets several important characters like Professor Kukui, his weird assistant Lillie and a new friend named Hau. More importantly, you meet a Rotom that ends up inbahiting your Pokédex, giving the Pokédex a personality for the first time.
Pokémon Sun and Moon will also have a QR scanner function that allows you to register Pokémon on your Pokédex, which will allow you to find out where to catch them.
In other Pokémon news, Nintendo has seemed to back out of exclusively focusing on the new Legend of Zelda for Wii U and will add other games to its Treehouse streaming event. Pokémon Sun, Moon and the upcoming mobile game, Pokémon Go, will all be there alongside Monster Hunter Generations, Dragon Quest VII's 3DS remake, and Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE.

It's that time of year again folks, football season is in the air! This weekend was the first weekend of NFL games and the second week of college football games. Hopefully everyone is enjoying watching he games and has time to do so!
Now back to this site, this is a busy time of year for me, so not a whole lot of updates have been made to the site. Recently I added uniform images for NFL teams and NCAA teams from certain video games, all of which were Wikipedia's images. I do have some more older NCAA uniforms that I will upload soon.
I have made a few updates to the site recently. First off I have added several dozen redirect links, which make viewing each game's page much easier. For example, http://maddenratings.weebly.com/ncaa10 will now take you directly to the NCAA Football 10 game page, without going through the links on the navigation panel of this site. So adding in game link to the end of the website address will automatically take you there like "/madden08 , /ncaafootball07 , /nba2k14 , /NBALive14 , etc... "
I have added several more screenshots to select game pages, particularity the new games, and as some newer college logos I have updated throughout all the NCAA Football video games.
There have been a few requests and questions so here are the answers to the most popular ones:
1. Do you have NCAA Football 14 rosters and if so when will they be posted?
Answer: I realize that a majority of the people who visit this site are pleased with the NCAA Football 13 rosters and are looking for the NCAA 14 ones. To answer the question I do have almost all the roster files for NCAA 14 teams, but they are not formatted into spreadsheets and are mostly a big unsorted collection. If anyone wants to know a particular player rating feel free to contact me or comment below and I'll let you know. Hopefully I can get the roster spreadsheets up soon.
2. Do you have older rosters before Madden NFL 2005 and NCAA Football 2005?
Answer: Sadly I do not. I don't have copies of these games and finding player ratings information for games back from 2004 and back is difficult to dig up on the internet. However I do have a few select player ratings from previous games that I am working to add eventually.
3. Will you add individual player pages with their ratings?
Answer: Stay tuned...

Reedy, J. and Lunzman, S., "Model Based Design Accelerates the Development of Mechanical Locomotive Controls," SAE Technical Paper 2010-01-1999, 2010, https://doi.org/10.4271/2010-01-1999.
Smaller locomotives often use mechanical transmissions instead of diesel-electric drive systems typically used in larger locomotives. This paper discusses how Model Based Design was used to develop the complete drive train control system for a 24 ton sugar cane locomotive. A complete MATLAB Simulink machine model was built to fully test and verify the shift control logic, traction control, vehicle speed limiting, and braking control for this locomotive application before it was commissioned. The model included the engine, torque converter, planetary transmission, drive line, and steel on steel driving surface. Simulation was used to debug all control code and test and refine control strategies so that the initial field commissioning in remote Australia was executed very quickly with minimal engineering support required. The Caterpillar approach to plant modeling with proprietary library of Simulink component models will also be discussed in this paper since it enabled the rapid construction of an accurate locomotive plant model.

Felicity Kendal has become the seventh celebrity to be voted out of this year's Strictly Come Dancing.
The Good Life actress and professional partner Vincent Simone landed at the bottom of the public vote alongside Patsy Kensit and Robin Windsor, despite having secured her highest score yet for their American smooth in last night's Blackpool Tower Ballroom special.
Upon hearing that she had finished in the bottom two for the third time, Kendal rested her head against Simone's shoulder, as he called out in protest.
When asked to comment on the result, the 64-year-old stated: "It's been such an amazing thing. I'm here because of [Vincent], he's just phenomenal, he's just a genius."
She then looked around at the historic ballroom and added: "What a way to go, It's fantastic. This is the place to go home from."
Host Tess Daly then confirmed that Kendal had received the fewest amount of viewer votes, prompting a standing ovation from the entire venue and a tearful, consolatory embrace from Kensit.
"It's [been] the luckiest time of my life," she declared. "This has been the most extraordinary journey, I wouldn't have missed a second of it."
Asked to weigh in on the public's decision, judge Alesha Dixon stated: "I actually think Felicity had one of her better nights, but unfortunately it's the nature of the beast and it's the way the cookie crumbles."
Strictly Come Dancing continues next Saturday at 6.30pm on BBC One.

Boucle can be conquered, lol. Here's the proof.
Mum was very obliging, posing with a blanket over her in 38 degree heat. No patterning or cabling, unfortunately, because of the difficulties working with boucle. The cabling would have been easy enough but dropping stitches either side of the cables and ribbing them back up proved to be almost impossible.
The reverse is just a simple hem, enclosing a cotton backing.

I got one of the John Bull beer kits recently, been using Coopers before but wanted a different kit to try something new.
I'm impressed with the quality, pity though it doesn't come in a 3kg all malt version. Making it was no difference to Coopers, just as easy and the result similar, maybe a little more body.
I think Hambleton Bard got it right here, just wish they would bring out an all-malt kit as well.

By Tracee Hamilton
Sunday, January 10, 2010; D10
Last season, Georgetown opened its Big East campaign with a 74-63 road win over then-No. 2 Connecticut that gave the Hoyas a 10-1 start. Everything looked rosy -- and then the Hoyas went off the rails, finishing 16-15, 7-11 in the Big East. They won only four of their final 16 games and lost in the first rounds of both the conference tournament and the National Invitation Tournament.
So it might be early to become enraptured with 12th-ranked Georgetown, even after Saturday's breathtaking 72-69 victory over Connecticut at Verizon Center. Then again, any team that can come back to beat the Huskies after playing one of the most unwatchable first halves in recent memory has my attention. So does any team that features Austin Freeman, who scored 28 of his career-high 33 points after halftime.
Huskies Coach Jim Calhoun started his postgame remarks by saying the Hoyas (12-2, 3-1) had done a lot of things right.
"First thing, they had Austin Freeman in uniform," Calhoun cracked. "That helps an awful lot. He is a bona fide, terrific, big-time player who made big-time shots."
In the second half, yes. In the first half, the cold-shooting Hoyas, including Freeman, couldn't make layups, lay-ins or layaways. They missed two- and three-pointers with abandon. They'd have missed four-pointers if Dr. Naismith had thought of 'em.
After taking a 19-18 lead on a three-pointer by Freeman with 10 minutes 17 seconds remaining in the half, the Hoyas didn't score another field goal until Chris Wright finally hit a jumper with 50 seconds remaining.
That drought of nearly 10 minutes left Georgetown shooting worse than 30 percent in the first half, 20 percent from three-point range. Combine that with eight turnovers and the aggression of a shiatsu massage, and you've got a 40-25 halftime deficit and recipe for a blowout.
"Our execution was horrible. That's the only way to put it," Coach John Thompson III said. "We were coming down, taking quick, contested shots. We weren't making them work at the defensive end."
Meanwhile, the No. 13 Huskies (11-4, 2-2) shot 50 percent, outrebounded the Hoyas, 24-14, and generally looked more in sync.
Thompson was asked if he gave a fire and brimstone speech at halftime. While he pondered the question, Freeman and Greg Monroe both piped up, "He was calm." (Well, what else could they say? He was standing right there.) No matter his demeanor, his team got the message.
The Hoyas began the second half with a 14-3 run -- 10 of those points were Freeman's -- that cut the deficit to six, 45-39. From that point forward it was a typical Georgetown-Connecticut game. The Hoyas took their first lead of the half, 57-55 (on a layup by Freeman, of course) with 8:13 to play, and the lead seesawed until, trailing 70-69, Connecticut's Jerome Dyson and Kemba Walker both missed jumpers. A steal by Wright with 13 seconds left and a layup by Moore sealed the victory.
"The way the second half played out I liked," Thompson said. "We go in there at halftime, and this is not to take anything away from [Connecticut], but we felt it was all us. We did not do what we were supposed to do how we were supposed to do it in the first half. We knew if we took care of all that we'd have a chance."
Georgetown still is a bit of a puzzle. This is, essentially, a five-man team. With an 11-man roster, including two walk-ons, the Hoyas have all the depth of a pie tin.
So why would a team whose starters play almost the entire game come out so slow at the start? Logic would seem to dictate that those legs would start to get heavy midway through the second half, not midway through the first. Yet Georgetown scores more points in the second half than in the first, and has all season.
How little do the reserves contribute? It depends on the game, but Saturday only two players came off the bench, Hollis Thompson and Jerrelle Benimon.
They combined for four points in 34 minutes. In a victory over St. John's on New Year's Eve, the bench was outscored 33-0. Overall, the five starters are playing 79 percent of the minutes and contributing 88 percent of the points.
At least the hot hand has changed from game to game among the five starters. Wright has been the leading scorer six times, Monroe three times, Freeman and Jason Clark twice and Julian Vaughn once. Wright, Monroe and Freeman are all averaging double figures.
"I've said this several times: We have a lot of guys in that [locker] room that can score," Thompson said. "This is an unselfish group and I think they're doing a very good job at both ends of the floor for the most apart. Austin was rolling, the guys were unselfish and that's when we're at our best."
They'll have to keep it up; there is little margin for error with so little depth, and one injury could be catastrophic for Georgetown. Still, it was the Hoyas' third win over a ranked opponent this season -- Butler and Washington were the other victims, both away from Verizon Center -- and their fourth straight victory over U-Conn. They'll likely move up in the top 25 when the new poll is released Monday. Then again, a midseason victory over the Huskies isn't always a harbinger of better days ahead.

All of the other places that my wife and I have lived had immediate access to a variety of both small shops and national chain stores. Now, where we have decided to make our home, there are a number of stores nearby but not as many as we have grown accustom. For many of the places that we once frequented, we have to drive a little further than before which, we are finding, is actually a welcomed change from the places where we once rested.
Just down the road we have many of the essentials just by different names than those that we are used to seeing. There are local eateries, small gas stations, and other stores that line the main thoroughfare just down the street. And, while it seems further than it really is, there are a few of the national retailers just a little further down the road including the local Wal-Mart. On a side note, this is the first Wal-Mart, or any large store for that matter, that I have ever seen which has separate buggy parking.
All of the other stores are either the same distance that we are used to driving or are a little closer than they once were. Ollie's is a perfect example of this as it is now about 20 minutes away when there were a couple of others that we used to go to that were a 25-30 minute drive from our previous rentals. But there are replacements that are much closer to us including BB's and some other local stores that offer the same if not better prices.
The only stores that could be seen as inconvenient are the ones that we don't use regularly. If we need to go to Staples, Bed, Bath, & Beyond, or Babies R Us they are no longer 10 minutes down the road. However, at least a couple of them, Staples for certain, are near my office and usually those trips can be done quickly in the middle of the day. But, again, many of the things that we once purchased there can be found elsewhere and, at the moment, we are still in the process of exploring the local area including the towns immediately around us as well as the Reading area.
We have everything that we need at a convenient distance from our home. There are plenty of options out there some of which we have already fond while others are, as of yet, undiscovered. However, when compared to our previous houses and apartments, we are the most comfortable and relaxed being ever so slightly removed from the retail commotion. We have space, we have room to breathe, and we still have access to everything we need.

Fisheries in the Northeast
Commercial fishing is one of the most dangerous occupations in the United States. Many commercial fishing operations are characterized by hazardous working conditions, strenuous labor, long work hours and harsh weather. According to the CDC, roughly 46 fishermen die each year. Vessel disasters and falls overboard are the leading cause of death. According to the NIOSH Report, "Fatal Occupational Injuries in the U.S. Commercial Fishing Industry", the East Coast had the highest number of commercial fishing fatalities in the United States. Fisheries with the highest number of fatalities on the East Coast include Scallop, Multi-Species Groundfish and Lobster fisheries.

This fascinating documentary offers a look at the life of legendary performer Hank Williams. Stricken with drugs and drink, Williams died at age 29 after transforming the country genre beyond all recognition. Although he didn't leave behind much material (an estimated 88 songs were recorded in his lifetime), it seemed like everything Hank touched turned to musical gold, including such classic tracks as 'I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry,' 'Your Cheatin' Heart,' 'Cold, Cold Heart,' and many others. Drawing on rare interview material, performances, and photographs, Honky Tonk Blues offers a moving portrait of the man.

The Real Tennis Society
Founded in 2012, The RTS's mission is to promote the sport of tennis (real, court, jeu de paume et al.) through its history and create a foundation for scholarly study of tennis through organizing conferences, exhibitions and events in conjunction with those institutions keen to help grow this field of study.
The first international conference was held at Queen's during the 2012 World Championship. We had 11 papers over 2 days with an elegant book-signing reception for attendees and a conference dinner for speakers at the Chelsea Arts Club. The conference was a great success and led to the creation of the Real Tennis Society launched in Bayonne in September, 2012.

Do you know that you are not SAFE even using the new CJ domains?
Do you know that some of the new CJ domains still redirecting through qksrv.net?!
YES! It is true. I just found out today when a few of my visitors complaint to me that SOME (not all) of my CJ links is not working.
I try to figure it out. And found out that it is because the visitors have ads blockers installed.
I am not complaining about ads blockers as there are too much of them and the ads blocker creator understand nothing.
How this blocker works is simply to block everything from qksrv.net.
Then CJ came out with a much "briliant" idea on the new domains to bypass the original qksrv.net domain.
BUT! Even if you use the new domains, some of them (merchant specific) stilll REDIRECT through qksrv.net in the LOOP of redirecting!!!
And the link never get passed and will be blocked. And thus complaint emails coming in.
PLEASE CJ, I'll forgive the blocker because they don't understand. BUT CJ! YOU UNDERSTAND! Why are you still doing that?

as long as there are greedy people who only wants the money for themselves and not share it around, they will always find a way to deprive you of your earnings.
don't blame cj. educate your visitors instead. let them know that if they want to shop, they should disable whatever ad-blocker they have. why on earth would they want to block ads anyway if shopping is what they want?
December 4th, 2004, 07:44 PM #3
I always wondered about that. I figured they HAD to redirect through a single domain at some point, otherwise they couldn't set the right cookie. I just checked one, and sure enough--it redirected through qksrv.net.
You said "some" redirected through qksrv.net. Are you implying that some don't? If so, I doubt that they track correctly.

What they NEED to do is redirect thru someotherrandomhostname.qksrv.net and still pass/check a qksrv.net cookie.
Since only WWW.qksrv.net is being affected, this would go a long way towards a real solution.
December 4th, 2004, 10:07 PM #5
Some of the so called "Ad-blockers" work by not loading the qksrv links on the original page. If you are using the new URL's, you should be Okay with these types of ad-blockers.
Some of the others (as I understand it), follow your path, as you click-through. When your browser attempts to load through a restricted domain you get stopped. I think that's what Redfish is saying...

>You said "some" redirected through qksrv.net. Are you implying that some don't? If so, I doubt that they track correctly.
Yes, some don't. I think the merchant's thank you page tracking pixel will also redirect, redirect and redirect to check for cookie.
Hmm, if merchant is still posting the OLD qksrv.net tracking pixel, I am sure it will be blocked too.
> educate your visitors instead
It is information age today and everything is just clicks away. If a visitor don't like a website, they will leave. You can't simply ask them to adjust to best resolution 800x600 or use Mozilla Firefox because your site serve best on them.

in the same manner, why would visitors want to receive sales offers but at the same time block the ads?
adblockers don't just block cj. this is not just a cj problem. and even if cj changes everything from qksrv.net, it will just be a matter of time before the adblockers block the other domains too.

I've wondered about this also.
It looks like CJ is setting up CNAME's for the new domains and pointing them to www.qksrv.net, so qksrv is still seen. Another way of doing this is to set A records for the new domains and point them to the 216.34.x.x ip, bypassing the reference to qksrv.
December 5th, 2004, 04:42 AM #9
Yes, but if they redirect to 216.34.x.x, the cookie will be set for 216.34.x.x instead of qksrv.net. After the shopper checks out, the image tag on the checkout page will not find that cookie. The clickthrough and checkout image most both be on the same domain (or redirect through the same domain) in order for CJ to track the sale.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the clarification regarding clickthrough and checkout image links being (or redirected) on the same domain. By clickthrough, do you mean the actual link or the tracking 1x1 image?
Thanks Again, Michael.

I vaguely remember a couple of months ago, Todd said that they were working with the merchants on a one to one basis to change their tracking qksrv links over to the new domains. Is this what you are talking about? If so, it looks like cj dropped the ball on this one.

ALL CJ link HAVE to go through qksrv.net at some stage in the redirection process because that is where the cookie is dropped from.
So host file blocking still works (as in the file distributed with Kazaa Lite, etc).
Yes, the number one priority right now is to pressure merchants to ensure their transaction image is changed from qksrv.net to one of the other domains, to prevent Nortons from blocking the final step in the affiliate-aggregator-merchant releationship. Without the final step, it's all a waste of time.
Educate your surfers on removal of poisoned hosts files, and put download buttons on your websites for non-MSIE browsers.
December 5th, 2004, 10:54 AM #13
All I know is that for the last couple of days, I have being working on some of my pages and I have noticed that some of the CJ. banners don't display on the pages and while some of they do go to the merchant site after I click on the invisible graphic, some will just give me a 404.
The ones that the graphics don't show but gets to the merchant site, do show up on the CJ reports page.
I also noticed that the pages will take longer to load if it's looking for those graphics, specially on one of the new domain links and in some of the smartzone banners.

changing over to new domains will only buy us more time - until the blockers catch up with them. this is only a temporary fix.
a more permanent fix would be to make the surfers be aware what adblockers are doing to their browsers.

My CJ income has tumbled over 80% this year from my last 5 year averages. Miserable Christmas with traffic up on my site 35% in both visitors and page views.
Screw these networks climbing in bed with the BHO popup Adwhores to pillage their merchants pocket books. Screw the cookie stuffers with their incessant popups and unders, as both parties are driving even more shoppers to seek Ad Blockers. I want a 100.00/month slotting fee from any network just for placing their merchant links on my sight. Let's all demand this the moment we produce 2000 monthly legit clicks to any of them.
Rise up webpage slaves and and burn the pimps for the Adwhores at the stake, as they can't bring themselves to bann them due to money flow. Flowing into the networks and sleazy affiliates pockets from brain dead merchant's budgets.Webmaster's... Mike and Charlie

I agree that, from everything I know, all the redirects do hae to go through qksrv.net at some point.
Another puzzle: It's super easy to find out many, or perhaps all, the domains CJ is using. (I don't think it's appropriate to say more about how to do this.) Indeed, I found quite a lot in a matter of seconds. Presumably the Symantecs of the world can use the same method, then block all the domains. So: I applaud CJ's effort to circumvent Symantec's misguided blocking, but I worry Symantec has the upper hand here.
December 5th, 2004, 07:59 PM #17
Drewbert's got it right. If you change a domain and want the cookies to remain intact, you've got to redirect through the old one.
That's an effective method against those who merely pattern match and remove HTML from a webpage to block ads, as the big adblockers do.
It cannot combat the host file modification methods and such that work down at that level.
Ben, yes, it's a big game of cat & mouse. IMHO, the cat is big and slow, has more important things do do, hundreds of slower mice running around at its feet, and doesn't really have it in for any one provider enough to chase it down with that sort of fervor.
The list of what they do block is arbitrary at best and hardly thorough.
With the damage they've done, it's just plain irresponsible, and I would hope that nobody would knowingly block so broadly as to effect so much more than the display of some banner ads.
All that seems like the product of too little thought, effort, and resources. Not the sort of orgranization that could or would employ such techniques to hunt down the fast mice.

at least cj is responding to this issue the best it can, and for that I for one am just thankful.
Scott, if you can come up with a list of how the surfers can disable (at least temporarily, if that's what they want) the adblocking features of different antivirus or other softwares, i'd be happy to place that at the help section of my site.
I'm sure, that kind of info would be helpful to the surfer who took the time to complain to redfish that his cj links are not working.
December 5th, 2004, 09:44 PM #19
ScottJ said it all ... listen to Scott!!!!!
... at least cj is responding to this issue the best it can ...
If that's the 'best that CJ can do', do you really want to trust your sales reporting to it/that?

you were right that this is a cat and mouse game. exactly what i've been saying.
however, you are under-estimating our opponent. the current cat may be slow, but we don't want to wake up someday and find that it has gained new feet. we need a more permanent fix and not just play catch-up.
if you received the LS invite, it has a relevant quote. something like, he who arrives at the battlefield first is well-prepared and well-rested for the fight.
we can't just let the adblockers dictate the game. let us paunch back where we they least expect us to come.
what i meant by "you" is yourself and other software experts here.
we can whine and whine, but we really have no control over cj. what we do have is complete control over our own sites. so, i was wondering if we can fight back using that control.
December 6th, 2004, 05:22 AM #22
This is such an old issue, should have been resolved a long time ago, but CJ doesn't seem to have the ability to correct issues in a timely manner.
Whether it's a bug with the Account Manager (I reported one back in July that still isn't fixed!) or a CoC violation report, CJ seems to move very slowly.
As for the ad blocking, I've been recommending Trend Micro PC-cillin to people. It doesn't block ads, and does everything else better than Norton does. It's fast, doesn't slow down your computer, and you get real time virus and firewall updates. I love it!
We have to get the word out that Norton is not a good program: it does slow down your computer, and there are lots of operational issues that seem to go back to having Norton on a computer. Tell people to dump Norton, and that will get the point across!

>> what i meant by "you" is yourself <<
fair enough, just wanted to make sure it was clear that these are only my own opinions.
There have been other threads around here pointing out resources for you to educate your users.
>>however, you are under-estimating our opponent<<
I don't see them as an opponent, honestly. I don't think they're on a battlefield against relevant text links and tracking tags that serve a valid purpose in ecommerce other than advertising. I think those are just caught in a careless implementation of a poorly implemented banner adblocker.
Adblockers are in high demand due at least in part to our fellow webmasters who have crossed the line allowing advertisers to publish distracting ads that force you to strain to read the rest of the page or tempting you to "punch the monkey".
Unfortunately for CJ (and others), they had text links and tracking tags going through the same domain as banners.
Personally, I'm all for end-users' choice as to what appears on their screen. If they want to block certain content, fine. I also believe that webmasters should have a choice over whether those users can view their content for "free".
Norton's offense, IMO, is that they've included this adblock software as a "feature" with their firewall software and it is enabled by default. There is little documentation on it, very little indication that it is getting installed, and while it is operating, zero indication that it has blocked something (at least in the 2004 product, 2005 is out now). Pages that have content blocked just look broken. That's not user choice. The combination of that and the over-reaching blocking strategy, I feel, is irresponsible. So much that I can't believe that they intended to interfere with business with their solution.
Utopia would be for the adblock software to declare in the HTTP request that the user does not want to see ads, so the webmaster can act appropriately. The response would have indication of their position on ad -viewing preference and the browser would react accordingly.
That's industry standards, P3P-esque, sort of stuff that will likely never materialize. But it would be cool.
>>we can whine and whine, but we really have no control over cj. what we do have is complete control over our own sites. so, i was wondering if we can fight back using that control.<<
This we agree on. Though like other industry issues, we cannot expect the end-users to be sympathetic (unless they cannot view content, then they'll care). That doesn't mean you shouldn't try.

TI Master said it, I sent specific instructions on how to bypass hostfile blocking more than a year ago, and Received no answer, after being told that the document was scalated.
I would bet my money I can fix this issue in 1 day with all the CJ tech guys looking to me. But CJ never answered about this, they need to hire some smart tech people, I mean SMART.Fer(nando) - US & EU Marketing

What does CJ control? Correct me if I am wrong, but whatever they do they are vanerable to 3rd parties, since everything is transacted in the "open". I wonder if there any thought to not getting rid of BeFree and migrating all of the clients to that tracking method??? I know that it would be painful to move, but after a year there is no solution in sight and Symantic, Norton, Adaware and Kaazalite are the most popular downloads in the world today and who knows what is next. Personally, I have three of the four of them on my computer.

Investors are piling into small cap stocks that are catering not for the rich, but for the masses. These small companies have products for people who are either retiring or are looking for a low entry point into the property market.
Small Cap Stocks in the Property Sector delivering strong investment returns
Since we, Under the Radar Report, first tipped the small cap stock, retirement property specialist Ingenia Communities (IGA) early last year it has doubled our subscribers' money. Elsewhere, shares in Villa World (VLW) have returned subscribers almost 30 per cent in less than four months. This property developer sells affordable house and land packages for between $300,000 and $500,000.
Unlike its competitors, Villa World does not accept variations which means its customers cannot make changes to the properties. This means it can achieve a production line type situation where it develops 50 to 60 blocks at a minimum and often 200 to 300 at a time.
Both companies are able to target the masses because their business models are different from their bigger, capital rich completion competitors, and involve innovative ways to keep costs down.
Small Cap Stock Ingenia produces cheaper housing for retirees and first home buyers
Ingenia's chief executive Simon Owen sums up the rationale: "There is no point being the fifth or sixth biggest player in the asset rich end of the market. We are targeting the lower to middle market, which is people reliant on the pension to cover their living expenses."
Late last year Ingenia announced that it had purchased a beachside tourist park just north of Newcastle for $11 million on a trailing yield of 10.6 per cent, which would generate a yield of 15.5 per cent upon development. Compare these yields to the one on the average residential property of about 4 per cent, while the typical cash yield from the deferred management fee model would be in the range of 6 to 8 per cent.
Ingenia is deviating away from the deferred management fee model favoured by the big players in the sector like Lend Lease, FKP and Stockland.
Under this arrangement, those who have high valued property and little cash are able to sell their property and pay for a lifetime leasehold interest in the retirement village. The small cap property company doesn't collect any cash or profit when the resident lives there, which is usually for 10 to 15 years. Only when the resident leaves and the property is on sold does the property company get 30 per cent of the property's value as payment.
In contrast, Ingenia's model is more attractive for fund managers who like to see the money today. Here, the resident buys the home for a much lower sum and then pays $140 a week in rent. Says Owen, "We're targeting a market where someone owns a property worth $400,000 and can buy a retirement home for 50 per cent of this amount, still have the pension and comfortably pay the rent."
Small Companies lead the way: Manufactured homes a big player in the future of Australia's Housing
Helping to keep the costs down, and its returns up, is Ingenia's preference for manufactured accommodation. As we said in July, at Under the Radar Report we believe that manufactured homes is a big part of the future for housing in Australia because it costs so little in comparison to building homes through conventional methods, which require numerous tradesmen and more building materials.
Keeping the costs down and the returns up is driving retirees, first home owners and investors into these two small caps.
