Danny Carlton is the infamous loony fruitcake who apparently has a problem with Ad Block Plus, the award-winning Firefox plug-in that blocks those intrusive adverts that nobody wants to see, on web sites like Danny Carlton's. This deeply essential anti-spam tool transforms Web browsing from the unbearable slog through (what has become) a cesspool of online advertising, into the Utopian haven of ad-free browsing that we can now enjoy, thus making the Interweb a safe and pleasant land, protecting Web surfers from notorious ad-revenue spammers like Danny Carlton.

FEMA sorry for fake news briefing -- chicagotribune.com

WASHINGTON - The Federal Emergency Management Agency's No. 2 official apologized Friday for leading a staged news conference Tuesday in which FEMA employees posed as reporters while real reporters listened on a telephone conference line and were barred from asking questions.

"We are reviewing our press procedures and will make the changes necessary to ensure that all of our communications are straight forward and transparent," Vice Adm. Harvey E. Johnson Jr., FEMA's deputy administrator, said in a four-paragraph statement.

According to insider sources who contacted a SeattlePI blogger, Microsoft have stabbed yet another one of their partners in the back.

Bungie, the software company bought by Microsoft to develop games for the Xbox 360 (presumably because Microsoft didn't know how to) have allegedly been unceremoniously kicked out into the street, after having been striped bare of the rights to the Halo franchise (and probably their shirts, too).

After a wave of hype for Halo 3 that put even the (admittedly miserable) Vista launch to shame, it seems that the Redmond Giant has rewarded the game's actual creator with a vicious mugging.

UPDATE!!! ... this has now been officially confirmed by Bungie who, in order to save face, are spinning it as an "exciting evolution of our relationship with Microsoft". LOL! Yeah, OK. Being mugged for your IP, then kicked out into the street sounds really exciting, I'm sure.

A response to that FUD piece, "Linux Still Doesn't Make it On Desktop", from Microsoft Shill, Michael Gartenberg

This piece is so heavily encrypted into FUD, that it's necessary to provide a full translation, as follows:

Even Unix workstation vendors had thoughts of moving beyond scientific and engineering applications to mainstream knowledge worker desktops.

Translation: He arrogantly presumed, and continues to assume, that *nix solutions will never be useful to anyone but geeks, despite the fact that there is nothing that can be done on Windows that cannot also be done on *nix, perhaps with the exception of being part of a spam bot-net ... and frequently crashing (thus losing productivity).

I'm not an American, in fact I've never even been there (and frankly I don't think I ever will), but like most people I am completely appalled by the tenure in office of Mr. George "Dubya" Bush - a man who makes the most notorious dictators in history look tame by comparison.

I thought I knew quite a bit about how corrupt and evil Dubya was, until I came across a Blog called Monkey Lunch, which recites a litany of scandals against El Presidente several miles long.
