Censoring the internet is akin to banning books

Terry Pearson — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 12:30:26 +0000

Please read Doug Newman's article on SOPA (Stop online piracy act) and how this piece of legislation is congress's attempt at a virtual book ban on the internet. http://foodforthethinkers.com/2012/01/05/will-there-be-a-banned-web-sites-week/

Transferring GoDaddy hosting from one account to another

Terry Pearson — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 22:10:12 +0000

I recently ran into a problem transferring GoDaddy hosting from one account in their system to another. It appears that domains must be unique across the entire shared GoDaddy system. I decided to write a quick article on how to prevent downtime with such a transfer. So for future reference, it may be beneficial to [...]

Debunking the myths about Ron Paul

Terry Pearson — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 12:30:54 +0000

There are a lot of false rumors about Ron Paul. Rumors that can be debunked, and have been debunked, by Ron Paul's own words and actions. Yet, those who cannot imagine a Republican party without establishment elites in control, continue to propagate these lies. Here are the real facts about Ron Paul: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=EKaq4qoQvOs

What is a penny worth to you (and how you were robbed by the Federal Reserve)

Terry Pearson — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 04:18:55 +0000

I saw this great video posted on the Republican Mother’s site and felt the need to share it. By the way, what are your thoughts on Karen Kwiatkowski for congress?

Petition for a veto of the National Defence Authorization Act

Terry Pearson — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 13:00:05 +0000

It's hard to pinpoint one law passed in the past couple years that one could argue is "the worst law ever." However, the National Defence Authorization Act may be on the top of the list. The act was passed overwhelmingly by Republicans and Democrats. It effectively removes accountability and rights proactively to an accused. This bill was made for abuse and our only hope is a presidential veto at this point.

Four Hour Chef

I am very excited to see Tim Ferris’s new book, “The Four Hour Chef” making its debut on Kindle this Winter. You can find out more by going here. Earlier this year, I tried (and succeeded at) the Four Hour body diet. Tim Ferris did a great job not only developing a system that was [...]

Cantons as a way to redistribute power

Guest Blogger — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 12:45:06 +0000

The difference between political parties and cantons is that the purpose of political parties is to get people of a certain ideological stripe elected to office. The purpose of cantons, on the other hand, is to decentralize the power of government. It does this by a contract between the canton and its members. That contract, good for one year, gives the canton the right to take possession of the taxes taken by a particular governing body.

Their are serious dangers in the protect IP act. Contact your congress person today and tell them to get their hands out of the internet.

The presidential nomination race is becoming Ron Paul vs Mitt Romney

Guest Blogger — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 12:30:20 +0000

Despite the increasingly blatant and ridiculous attempts of the Big Media to airbrush out Ron Paul, he is the one who is actually leading in the runups to the Republican primaries. In the most recent poll by Bloomberg News (November 10-12), Paul and Cain are in a statistical tie for first place overall among Iowa Republican voters. Paul was the clear leader among Iowa caucus-goers who have already made up their minds about who to vote for. Paul came in first place with 32%, followed by Romney with 25% and Gingrich with 17%. The also rans -- Perry, Bachmann, Santorum, Huntsman -- were far behind.

Simplifying Christmas

Terry Pearson — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 17:30:14 +0000

There are a lot of good parents out there. Most are well meaning when they give their kids a lot of toys for Christmas (or birthdays). But, I think we need to look at the amount of gifts we give our children. We all want our kids to be happy, but sometimes happiness is not "more." Sometimes, happiness happens by a trip to the sledding hill, a snow fort, or maybe just a big hug from a parent. Happiness comes from fellowship, not from a pile of toys or other items.
