Facebook Indexing Google: Will Facebook Index All Your Info

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:46:41 PST

If you've logged into Facebook recently, you've likely been notified of Facebook's new privacy changes. One of the new challenges facing Facebook is the site's plan indexing information on Google and other search engines. What does Facebook indexing mean to you? It could mean that your personal information on the site could appear on search engines such as Google and Bing.

So does this mean Facebook will automatically index all your info on Google? Not if you change your settings to prevent Facebook from indexing your information. The site claims that you can change your privacy setting to prevent Facebook from indexing your info.

So what can you do to stop Facebook from indexing? Here are some brief instructions:

If you don't want search engines like Google and Bing to index your profile, do yourself a favor and make sure those settings are still set the way you want them to be. To adjust your search privacy settings click on Settings>Privacy Settings>Search. If the "Allow indexing" box is checked then search engines will be able to index your information.

Even if you set your Facebook privacy settings to prevent indexing in the past, it is worth revisiting your Facebook privacy settings to ensure that your Facebook page won't be subjected to indexing.

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 23:39:24 PST

Popeye pictured eating spinach is the celebrated on the Google.com main page for today, December 8. Honoring E.C. Segar's birthday back in 1894, the celebrated cartoonist was the creator of Popeye the sailor man.

Popeye, who was deeply loved by his girlfriend, Olive Oil, enjoyed not only being a cartoon character but also as celebrity in newspapers and books as well. Always competing with rival Bruno, Popeye ate tons of spinach, gulping the green vegetable down by the can so he could power up to full strength.

Google.com periodically changes their webpage heading to honor events and dates of interest around the world. This unique day reflects the best of the past by celebrating the work of a very talented artist.

Tiger Woods 4th mistress alleged

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 17:37:02 PST

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the Internet water, Tiger Woods 4th mistress is alleged to exist. TMZ (who else) discovered this new but as of this writing unnamed woman and reported it in the early morning hours today.

Tiger Woods, Jaimie Grubbs, Rachel Uchitel, Kalika Moquin, and Number 4?

Reportedly she's got an Orlando lawyer named Michael O'Quinn of Fowler and O'Quinn to represent her and make an announcement to the press. TMZ sources claim the woman is (like Jaimie Grubbs) a cocktail waitress who claims to have met Woods in 2004 when she was 20-years old and says they had a two-year relationship. 2004 was the year Woods married Elin Nordegren.

Michael O'Quinn is well-known in Orlando business as part of the Arena Football League Orlando Predators ownership group. According to his firm's website, he specializes in "real estate and eminent domain litigation, transactional and commercial real estate matters and general business law," so he may be a bit out of his league in this arena.

No offense to the well-connected Mr. O'Quinn but the person should have hired an entertainment lawyer who's used to the huge media interplay O'Quinn's about to be involved in. Still, O'Quinn may be representing her as a friend and for the massive exposure he's going to get and has already enjoyed. But if there are holes in her story, the result could be a blast of negative PR for her and possibly O'Quinn. That's the risk he takes on here.

Meanwhile Woods public image is taking a massive beating in the media, with US Magazine taking the lead. The rag not only was rumored to have paid $150,000 for Jamie Grubbs affair story and voicemail, but now has information about Tiger Woods relationship and communications with nightclub executive Rachel Uchitel.

Stay tuned.

Jaimee Grubbs Claims Affair With Tiger Woods, Released Her Sex Text Messages

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 17:50:30 PST

Jaimee Grubbs released the alleged Tiger Woods texts to RadarOnline.com. The online celeb site reports that there were just two texts, which read...

"I will wear you out...when was the last time you got (bleeped)?"

And...

"Send me something very naughty...Go to the bathroom and take (a picture)."

But this does not provide evidence of an affair. Also missing are the dates and times of the texts. What's interesting is RadarOnline starts the post off with a link to seven pictures of Jaimee Grubbs. Grubbs is or was a San Diego cocktail waitress, who's San Diego-based Facebook page is down where she calls herself "MissBluesky".

TMZ is reporting that cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs has told Us Weekly that she had a 31-month affair with Tiger Woods. According to TMZ, Grubbs, 24 and best known for her stint on VH1's "Tool Academy," claims to have voicemails and text messages to corroborate her story. TMZ adds:

According to Us Weekly, Grubbs has more than 300 text messages from Tiger -- who married Elin Nordegren in 2004.The magazine, which comes out tomorrow, claims Grubbs had 20 sexual encounters with Tiger.

On Wednesday UsMagazine.com promises to post a voicemail Woods left Grubbs. In the voicemail, he supposedly tells Jaimee that he suspects his wife Elin knows about his affair.

Beyonce Video Phone Premiere VIDEO

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 17:16:28 PST

Today was the premiere of Beyonce's new single "Video Phone" featuring Lady GaGa. Now in my opinion nothing can top "Single Ladies," however, this "Video Phone" music video turns it out--not in the same way, but Beyonce does not disappoint. She loves her dance moves and so do I. This video might be easier to learn the dance than "Single Ladies." I wish Lady GaGa was in "Video Phone," maybe they'll do a remake.

What do you think? Does Beyonce turn it out yet again, or do you think she missed the beat?

Watch the premiere of "Video Phone" here:

Election Day November 3, 2009

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 05:35:47 PST

Here’s a list of all the races residents will be voting on in Virginia and Maryland on Election Day November 3, 2009.

The biggest local race is for Virginia Governor, where Democrats last year handed the GOP its first presidential defeat in 44 years, the GOP is trying to stage a comeback. Republican Bob McDonnell and Democrat R. Creigh Deeds, a state senator who narrowly lost the attorney general’s race to McDonnell four years ago, are running to replace the term-limited Democratic Gov. Tim Kaine.

Still, a handful of elections in a few states will give hints about this country’s state of mind, provide lessons for both Republicans and Democrats, and shed light on answers to a few important questions a year before pivotal 2010 midterm contests.

Amazon Closes Zappos Deal, Ends Up Paying $1.2 Billion

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 18:24:24 PST

Amazon earlier this morning announced the official closing of the acquisition of Zappos, a deal which we broke the news about back in July. Turns out the valuation of the online footwear and clothing retailer went up from the reported $928 million over the past few months too – thank you, stock market – and Zappos turns out to have been deemed worth a solid $1.2 billion by Jeff Bezos & co based on Friday’s closing price of $117.4 a share.

Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh writes in a public letter:

We’ve been spending the past few months obtaining all the proper government approvals, and I’m happy to say that we officially closed the deal at the split second between Halloween (10/31/09) and All Saints’ Day (11/1/09). From a practical point of view, we’ve switched out our previous board of directors with a new management committee that is composed of people from Zappos as well as Amazon.

Our investors and other shareholders exchanged their Zappos.com shares for approximately 10 million Amazon.com shares. Given the closing price on Friday, 10/30/09, for Amazon stock, those shares were valued at approximately $1.2 billion at the time of close.

As expected, the Zappos management team will remain intact and the company will continue to operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary with headquarters in Las Vegas, NV.

I’ve embedded a chart showing Amazon’s stock price evolution since the announcement of the acquisition was first made at the end of July up until now. The significant jump noticeable on the right is from when the company announced solid third-quarter earnings.

It made an estimated $272 million difference for Zappos this weekend.

Anthony Toth Builds $50,000 Replica Pan Am Cabin In His Garage

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 02:03:12 PDT

Anthony Toth Builds $50,000 Replica Pan Am cabin in his garage,according to snarkfood.com. They report that he spent about $50,000 whopping dollars to recreate a first-class Pan Am cabin inside his garage. He’s a 42 year old employee of United Airlines.

It’s reportedly taken him 20 years to build this replica Pan Am cabin. Wow, I hope he got it insured. It would really suck if it got torn down,somehow. That would be $50,000 and 20 years hard work,right down the drain.

Apparently, Anthony Toth decided to do this because he fell in love with Pan Am at an early age when his family used to fly on the airline,to visit oversea relatives.

He stated in a Wall Street Journal interview, “There was no other aircraft I could walk on board that intrigued me more than the Pan Am cabin.The brand was so powerful… They had this uncompromising standard of service.”

Anthony says he hopes to maybe turn his creation into a museum,someday. Pan Am World Airways went bankrupt in 1991,which was just a few years after a Pan Am flight got blown up by terrorists in Lockerbie,Scotland,and sadly killed all 270 people who were on board.

Susan Finkelstein Pics: Did She Really Offer Sex for World Series Tickets?

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 19:08:36 PDT

NEW YORK (CBS)-As the lawyer of Phillies fan Susan Finkelstein denies allegations that she offered an undercover police officer sex for World Series tickets, new pictures on Facebook have surfaced that appear to show a happy and somewhat reserved woman whose online image is greatly at odds with the portrayal by Pennsylvania police.

Finkelstein made headlines Tuesday when she was arrested after using Craigslist to find someone willing to give her World Series tickets, allegedly in exchange for sex.

An undercover officer in the Philadelphia suburb of Bensalem responded to the ad and claims he met with the 43-year-old woman at a bar. The officer said Finkelstein offered to perform various sex acts with him and his brother, who the cop claimed also had an extra seat.

But Finkelstein's lawyer, William Brennan, says his client did nothing wrong and feels police went over the line in pursuing her.

"I know the cops need to police the Internet for Craigslist, but going after a 44-year-old married lady trying to get to World Series tickets, that's way over the top," he told Crimesider Wednesday in a phone interview.

Brennan also vouches for Finkelstein's bona fides as a true Phillies fan.

"I am kind of a Phillies fan, but I could not name the 1980 starting lineup, but she can. She is for real," he said.

Balthazar Getty and Lindsay Lohan Spotted Getting Cozy Together

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 18:45:44 PDT

Lindsay Lohan’s fascination with dating women may be over with news that she has been spotted making out with actor Balthazar Getty.

According to reports, Lohan and Getty were spotted at 1:30 a.m. partying at the West Hollywood Voyeur night club locking tongues. Sources quoted by People Magazine claim that the two sneaked through the back door to avoid detection, and were “all over each other” at their table.

34 year old Balthazar Getty, who is still technically married to his wife Rosetta Millington, made headlines last year when he interrupted his marriage by hooking up with Sienna Miller. At the time Getty vowed to work harder on his marriage, although it would be fair to say that things didn’t work out for him there.

There’s also reports that Lohan also ended up in a verbal altercation at the nightclub when a waitress tried to take her drink. Lohan apparently flippedd, saying she was “not leaving yet” and would “finish her drink when she was ready.”

Gayla Bentley

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 19:09:01 PDT

It's not Bentley, a name of brand car, but Gayla Bentley is Plus Size Fashion Pioneer

Gayla Bentley is no stranger to the fashion scene. Flash back thirty years and you will find the passion and goal that inspired this pioneer to establish fashion and style for the Plus Size woman. Dedicated to achieve her goal that “It’s not about size, it’s about style,” Gayla Bentley has been on this mission ever since.

With ten years at Saks Fifth Avenue as the Director of The Fifth Avenue Club, Gayla Bentley took her experience and passion about style, and left Saks to begin her business, Cou-Tours, which hosted private, personalized shopping excursions to Paris. From Cou-Tours, Gayla Bentley formed The Gayla Bentley Fashion Design Group, set out to dispel judgments and stereotypes of Plus Size fashion, and countered opposition by bringing “fashionable, desirable, modern clothing to women of all sizes and shapes,” something all Curvy.Confident.Chic. Fashionistas strive to find.

The Gayla Bentley Fashion Design Group has continually (and successfully) delivered classic and chic fashion with clean design lines that transcend seasonal dressing. She designs clothing that is intended to be worn for multiple seasons that can be easily worn more than one way. Her designs and philosophy allow Gayla Bentley to integrate the sizes, so that no matter what size and/or shape you are; can shop at the same locations, something that most department stores fail to deliver.

If you can believe this, Gayla Bentley Fashion Design Group has been around since 2001, a time where Plus Size designer fashion was only a dream. The company’s beliefs are expressed passionately, giving all aspiring Plus Size designers and fashionistas something to aspire to: “We do not believe in covering her up. We create shape thus emphasizing a woman’s femininity and sensuality. Most importantly, she is comfortable and looks like she is wearing the clothes, not like the clothes are wearing her. She has her own style and her own confidence, and it radiates from her.”

Bar Code Google

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 00:58:48 PDT

Bar Code Google - Once in a while Google changes the logo on their homepage, this often happens to celebrate a holiday, a birthday of an important figure from history, or in this latest case an invention that has made an impact on our lives. Today is the 57th Anniversary of the Barcode, the first patent on the bar code was back on 7 October 1952.

When we go into our local store to purchase anything from groceries to consumer electronics, the assistant at the till will scan the bar code at the checkouts. These have not only made our life easier, but also sales assistants as well, as they no longer have to price each individual item.

Barcodes were first used to label railroad cars; they did not become a commercial success until they were used in supermarket checkouts, which made the system more automated. Other systems have tried to take the place of the Barcode, but the simplicity of the Bar Code and its low cost makes it still the preferred choice.

2016 Olympics Announcement: Hours Before The IOC Vote

noreply@blogger.com (.: AngeL :.) — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 18:41:23 PDT

2016 Olympics Announcement - In 30 minutes, it will be over.

Years of preparations, arm-twisting, sweet-talking and hopes will be rejected or rewarded Friday when the International Olympic Committee votes to select the host for the 2016 Games.

Chicago, Rio de Janeiro, Madrid and Tokyo – one by one – will be eliminated in a tense half-hour of successive rounds of secret balloting until one stands alone.

Shortly afterward, IOC president Jacques Rogge will break open a sealed envelope containing the winner's name and utter the magic words: "The games of the 31st Olympiad are awarded to the city of ..."

But on the eve of the vote, the IOC's 106 members were, as ever, keeping their thoughts to themselves. Only Tokyo seemed to have fallen out of the running. Otherwise, it was still too close to call between the beaches and bossa nova of Rio, the bustle and Lake Michigan waterfront of Chicago or the European elegance of Madrid. Everyone had reason to be hopeful, none reason to be sure.

"This is the big question, how will it go?" said Willi Kaltschmitt, an IOC member since 1988.

"There have been so many surprises in the past," he said. "It's very even at the moment. It all depends what happens in the first round."

As cities go out, loyalties will shift. That is where the contest will be won or lost. If Tokyo goes out first, will its supporters swing behind Rio, Madrid or Chicago and by how much for each? Could Madrid stun front-runners Chicago and Rio in the second round, knocking one of them out, with its seemingly solid core of backers?

The variables are such that any city could conceivably win or lose. A few votes either way could decide it. That is especially true this time, with all four cities seen as generally capable of holding the games. Some IOC veterans say there has been no closer contest in recent memory.

To prevent bribery, IOC members aren't allowed to visit the bidding cities – so they'll be deciding instead based on what they've read in committee reports. Some will go with their gut instincts, their emotions and personal interests.

Which is where President Barack Obama comes in, literally. He jets in Friday morning, for just five hours, to try to tip the outcome to Chicago. An Obama star turn could swing it – or possibly rebound against him if his adoptive hometown is knocked out. Coming for the day of the vote is a political risk, but so, too, was the risk that Rio might win if Obama didn't lend his charisma and inspirational example to Chicago's final push.

His election as the first black president in U.S. history resonated loudly in Europe, which has the most IOC voting members – 46.

His wife, Michelle Obama, has worked the room before him, wowing IOC members with her charm and smarts. The first lady flew in Wednesday. While hesitant to declare that Barack Obama's appearance could be decisive, IOC members acknowledged it was hotly anticipated.

"It is a very special moment," said Gerhard Heiberg, an IOC executive board member from Norway. "Let me listen to him and see what kind of vision he has for the games."

Talk show star Oprah Winfrey is part of Chicago's hard sell, too. She swept Hollywood-style into the marbled lobby of the IOC hotel on Thursday, turning heads and stopping every other step to shake a hand or pose for a photo with IOC members and their wives.

But Chicago is up against equally charismatic opposition in the shape of Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. The bearded former union leader makes a compelling case for Rio. Foremost of those is that South America has never before held an Olympics and that the games shouldn't be the exclusive preserve of rich, developed countries. That is an argument the other cities can't use because their countries have all held the Olympics before. Like Mrs. Obama, Silva has been lobbying IOC members personally in Copenhagen, as has Spanish King Juan Carlos.

Rio appeals to IOC members who believe it's their duty to share the Olympic ideals and pursuit of sporting excellence with all corners of the globe. South America is also an untapped market for Olympic sponsors. The romantic appeal of Rio's beaches and mountains is strong. The soothing samba song "Mas que nada" – "Don't worry about it" – playing in the auditorium lent an exotic, dreamy air to a news conference that Silva held Thursday.

"For some countries, it is just one more sports event that they are going to organize," he said. "But for us, it is a unique and extraordinary thing."

He even borrowed Obama's catchphrase: "We want to overcome and show the world that yes we can."

The final throw of the dice for all four cities will be their 45-minute presentations of speeches and videos, followed by questions, that they will make in turn Friday before the vote. Kaltschmitt said he believes that 40 percent of his colleagues on the IOC were undecided going into Friday and were waiting for the presentations to make up their minds.

Added Heiberg: "We've already heard about the technical plans. I want something more. I want to know about the vision. The leaders have to lift it up. I want to know why they want the games."

It takes a simple majority for victory, although it is unlikely that any city will win outright in the first or second rounds.

Rogge doesn't vote and, as long as their cities haven't been eliminated, neither can members from Brazil, the United States, Spain and Japan.

That leaves 97 voters in the first round, with more in subsequent rounds. In the event of a two-city tie in the early rounds, a runoff is held between the cities. If there is a tie in the final round, Rogge can vote or ask the IOC executive board to break the deadlock.

British bookmakers had Chicago pulling away in the last hours as the clear but not overwhelming favorite.

"But don't forget that Paris was the favorite to beat London the last time," said Graham Sharpe, spokesman for betting agency William Hill. "The favorite doesn't always win."

Vidyartha College Facebook virus

Facebook is either under attack by a virus, or is suffering a major glitch today with users reporting that their school name has been changed to Vidyartha College.

The so-called Vidyartha College Facebook virus was first reported earlier Tuesday (US PDT) and has since spread across the site.

At this stage we don’t know though what’s causing it, and at the time of writing Facebook has made no official comment.

It is more likely that the so-called virus is a bug on Facebook’s end, with a similar occurrence having happened once in the past. However the application of the name seems to be spreading between friends and isn’t appearing on all accounts, suggesting that maybe there might be something more serious at play.

We’ll update the post if we hear anything.
