Today we are in another STATE Of SHOCK - Because news just hit that Michael Jacksons' Dermatologist was the father of his children; NOT MIKE. Damn..
The Story is below the Video so you can Oooooooo and Aaaaaaaahhhh too; my crazyasshubby always said that the kids belonged to "Conway Twitty"; so I guess he was right after all.
Have Mercy ! these kids are not even Jacksons.. by adoption.
so what will really happen to them. that's a helluva question and wow - why did he do it ?
Michael said that the kids were African American - and we can all clearly see that the kids are Caucasion. Damn Mike, WHY ?? he told martin bashir in his rebroadcast interview from 2002' last nite; that "My Father Joseph has Blue Eyes, so the kids could have gotten their color from his side of the family; I have vitaligo so maybe they are just a product of GOD." MIKE Please, 2 lies in one..
Michael Dear You Sure Left a Mess for Everybody Baby,, Damn instead of Blanket Should we be callin that baby JACKET? SMDH
WHEW !!! I'm Through Now Y'all smdh
When we watch this video, we wondered if Billy Jean was in the crowd ?
fyi - this tune was really about his trials and tribulations with a crazed fan who claimed he was the father of her baby.. yeah.
now we're not sure who Billy Jean really is, but when the tune came out there was so much discussion about it, that Michael refused to explain it. now that he has passed on, Quincy Jones has explained it. most will still wonder who is Billy Jean, but only Michael Will Know..
another of the secrets from the Man in the Mirror..
Michael Jackson was more of a Phenomena than Person;
" Long Live the King - Long Reign the King of POP "
It seems like all the skeletons in Michael Jackson's closet are slowly making their way out and into the limelight.
Earlier this morning we reported that Michael wasn’t the biological father or the sperm donor for any of his kids, and Debbie Rowe is not the biological mother of the two kids she had for Michael. She was simply used as the surrogate, and paid to carry the children to term.
Now we're learning through Us Weekly that the biological father of Michael's children is Arnold Klein, Jackson's L.A.-based dermatologist and Rowe's former boss.
"He is the dad," says a Jackson insider. "He and Debbie signed an agreement saying they would never reveal the truth."
Debbie admitted a few years ago that she carried his children as a "favor" to Michael, but would not confirm that the marriage was ever consummated.
According to TMZ, Michael never officially adopted his three children and although he is presumed the father, it's not conclusive by any means.
Michael's mother Katherine has already been granted temporary guardianship of his children, but their fate still lies in the hands of the judge. We hope this dermatologist doesn't come out of the woodwork and try and fight for custody now that Michael has passed.
We Usually don't get into the dope arena, for obvious reasons. but this story made us reach back and remember the story seeking a solution for the opium poppy problem.
Wallabies - it's as simple as importing a few herds of Wallabies and turnin em loose in afghanistan. in no time the taliban will be clarkes employees. (clarkes shoes that is) the wallabies are so cute. basically they're large hamsters that sit on their back legs; hop around and look adorable.
kangaroos are more fierce than wallabies from what we've read; so the wallabies and a few kangaroos could probably make a difference in a few weeks, in a poppy region. then bring in some sheep, as they were there traditionally. supposedly they also do the same thing.
the animals are grazers, and they can be useful to the families who own the land; probably in as many ways as the opium poppies they will give up in the trade. could you shoot one of these cute cuddly milk makers ?
the question is if you are a poppy grower, would you trade your poppy fields, for a big herd of llamas, goats and wallabies; that can roam that same pasture and not bring the same bloodshed. But instead bring you money still over and over without the danger or bad karma ? that's gotta be more acceptable to Allah, don't you think ?
We think that this drug problem needs to be put in just these simple terms.
you cannot pass down a poppy field, but you can pass down a goat or a wallabie. dowry's are often paid traditionally with farm animals in muslim countries; for just this reason.
I think america needs to get with the tasmanians', the afghans and the aussies and get a contingent of sheep, border collies, wallabies and wallabie keepers brought in to naturalize. near the poppy fields they'd probably be seen as a novelty and be easier to milk and shear than a guy with an ak 47.
I'd personally hope that they might bring goats, and maybe some Llamas, to add to the mix for the sake of variety. no doubt the llamas and goats would eat some of the poppies too, producing some banging milk and wool.
our friends over at Splitrock Ranch can attest to the greatness of Llamas. they are the finest wool, and pack animals. we hear that they are even the most evenly tempered; so little to no spitting and fighting, unlike now.. they do have personalities and get their respect. they are afterall usually taller and larger than a man. so size alone makes them king.
the deal is this, the poppy fields seem to make animals sneak in; then they end up checkin the poppies out, finally walking in circles. yeah circles..
makes you wonder, if maybe the leaders who have been repeated sending folks there for generations to fight; aren't actually displaying the same symptoms ? have they been walking in those poppy fields, secretly ?
we aren't advocating anybody harm the wallabies; just thinking that maybe a buncha herding cute animals; can do more to change the region than a buncha men with guns; who've done nothing but kill each other.
at least the wallabies won't kill anybody. we also believe that the people won't want to kill the wallabies when their kids become attached to them, and regard them as friendly instead of another invading force.
so who do we call to set up the deal, Captain Kangaroo ? (sorry y'all cause we know he checked out a while ago) Jack Hannah ?or the big boss at the white house - Bo Obama ?
Who ever it is - somebody Holla @ Em Quick because america is rampin up in the afghan region massively. we need to try to come up with a cost effective, natural and positive remedy to this bloodshed. so ours is Wallabies, Llamas, Goats and Kangaroos.
Holla @ Us if You Down Wit the Wallabies, Sheep, Goats and Llamas; for Peace in Afghanistan
we think the animals know more than we do, so we bes be lettin them sort out this mess, since we have failed miserably up to this point.
Wallabies have been observed acting strangely in poppy fields
Australian wallabies are eating opium poppies and creating crop circles as they hop around "as high as a kite", a government official has said.
Lara Giddings, the attorney general for the island state of Tasmania, said the kangaroo-like marsupials were getting into poppy fields grown for medicine.
She was reporting to a parliamentary hearing on security for poppy crops.
Australia supplies about 50% of the world's legally-grown opium used to make morphine and other painkillers.
We have a problem with wallabies entering poppy fields, getting as high as a kite and going around in circles. Then they crash
Lara Giddings, government official
"The one interesting bit that I found recently in one of my briefs on the poppy industry was that we have a problem with wallabies entering poppy fields, getting as high as a kite and going around in circles," Lara Giddings told the hearing.
"Then they crash," she added. "We see crop circles in the poppy industry from wallabies that are high."
Rick Rockliff, a spokesman for poppy producer Tasmanian Alkaloids, said the wallaby incursions were not very common, but other animals had also been spotted in the poppy fields acting unusually.
"There have been many stories about sheep that have eaten some of the poppies after harvesting and they all walk around in circles," he added.
Retired Tasmanian poppy farmer Lyndley Chopping also said he had seen strange behaviour from wallabies in his fields.
"They would just come and eat some poppies and they would go away," he told ABC News.
"They'd come back again and they would do their circle work in the paddock."
Some people believe the mysterious circles that appear in fields in a number of countries are created by aliens. Others put them down to a human hoax.
Michael Jackson was more of a Phenomena than Person; if you met him, you remembered him. I met him as a young motown singer, passing through town. he was sweet, quiet and well mannered as were all the Jacksons.
It would be the later years, that would mould a distinct impression of Michael Jackson aside from the Jackson 5; and make us all want to create our own tributes to him - upon his final curtain call.
we're going to update this page as we feel it, and provide links to all kinds of Michael Jackson Memorabilia. as well BadGalsRadio will be spinning 100 Michael Jackson Hits over the next 7 days. every hour you will hear at least "3 Michael Jackson hits" - No Diggity.
we remember the man in the mirror this way, because he made us all look deep into that mirror; and recognize who we are.
Michael Jackson Bio Part 1 - 6 (consecutively posted below)
it was his step away from the Jacksons, that presented a new and more interesting Michael to the music world.
he was an instant hit. it's his ability to dance, sing and think on his feet that endeared us to him. Thriller - his best selling album, is the worlds best selling album still to this day. now that is quite a mark on history.
Even those of us who thought he was slipping away from reality, watched to see what would happen. he was so charismatic that he could draw a crowd wherever he went; it just magically happened..
he was a superstar if ever the word could be used justly..
Michael Was the King of Pop - and He Earned that Title, Righteously through a sacrifice of blood, sweat and tears.
His many strange peroids were usually punctuated with a new and undeniably hot tune or album. he never made a album that didn't sell at least 1 million copies. his albums still sell like the day they were released globally on cd, and now again on Vinyl - from the early motown reissues. he has been in the spot light his entire life.
This Comeback was anticipated to be the greatest show he had ever planned. the rehearsals in Los Angeles were going well; even with reports of an occassional tired day here and there.
Michael was a trooper to the end in everysense of the word..
maybe he knew better than any of us, the sacrifices it takes to create a legacy that recovers from such scorn as was heaped on him in his later years. Michael perservered and pushed on - never looking back and making plans always for more and better.
that, I am sure - is why we loved him so..
" Long Live the King - Long Reign the King of POP " Michael Joseph Jackson 08/29/1958 ~ 06/25/2009
TMZ were told: "when paramedics arrived, Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back." Jackson is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.
The website reports he had been taken to hospital in Los Angeles after CPR treatment by paramedics who were called to his home.
Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics were first at the scene of the singer's $US100,000-a-month rented home in Holmby Hills near Sunset Boulevard about 12.12pm (local time) to find him not breathing, the Los Angeles Times reported.
He died at UCLA hospital.
Jackson was reportedly planning a comeback and was living in LA while rehearsing a series of 50 sold-out shows in London, the Los Angeles Times has reported.
Jackson Was Not Breathing When Paramedics Arrived, Officials SayPOSTED: Thursday, June 25, 2009

Michael Jackson
LOS ANGELES -- Michael Jackson, the sensationally gifted child star who rose to become the "King of Pop" and the biggest celebrity in the world only to fall from his throne in a freakish series of scandals, died Thursday.
He was 50.
Jackson died at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles. Ed Winter, the assistant chief coroner for Los Angeles County, confirmed his office had been notified of the death and would handle the investigation.
The circumstances of Jackson's death were not immediately clear. Jackson was not breathing when Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to a call at his Los Angeles home about 12:30 p.m., Capt. Steve Ruda told the Los Angeles Times.
The paramedics performed CPR and took him to the hospital, Ruda told the newspaper.Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long, bizarre, sometimes farcical decline from his peak in the 1980s, when he was popular music's premier all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV, dominated the charts and dazzled even more on stage.
His 1982 album "Thriller" -- which included the blockbuster hits "Beat It," ''Billie Jean" and "Thriller" -- is the best-selling album of all time, with an estimated 50 million copies sold worldwide.
The public first knew him in the late 1960s, when as a boy he was the precocious, spinning lead singer of the Jackson 5, the music group he formed with his four older brothers. Among their No. 1 hits were "I Want You Back," ''ABC," and "I'll Be There."
He was perhaps the most exciting performer of his generation, known for his feverish, crotch-grabbing dance moves and his high-pitched voice punctuated with squeals and titters. His single sequined glove, tight, military-style jacket and aviator sunglasses were trademarks second only to his ever-changing, surgically altered appearance.
"For Michael to be taken away from us so suddenly at such a young age, I just don't have the words," said Quincy Jones, who produced "Thriller." ''He was the consummate entertainer and his contributions and legacy will be felt upon the world forever. I've lost my little brother today, and part of my soul has gone with him."
Jackson ranked alongside Elvis Presley and the Beatles as the biggest pop sensations of all time. He united two of music's biggest names when he was briefly married to Presley's daughter, Lisa Marie, and Jackson's death immediately evoked that of Presley himself, who died at age 42 in 1977.
As years went by, Jackson became an increasingly freakish figure -- a middle-aged man-child weirdly out of touch with grown-up life. His skin became lighter, his nose narrower, and he spoke in a breathy, girlish voice. He surrounded himself with children at his Neverland ranch, often wore a germ mask while traveling and kept a pet chimpanzee named Bubbles as one of his closest companions.
"It seemed to me that his internal essence was at war with the norms of the world. It's as if he was trying to defy gravity," said Michael Levine, a Hollywood publicist who represented Jackson in the early 1990s. He called Jackson a "disciple of P.T. Barnum" and said the star appeared fragile at the time but was "much more cunning and shrewd about the industry than anyone knew."
Jackson caused a furor in 2002 when he playfully dangled his infant son, Prince Michael II, over a hotel balcony in Berlin while a throng of fans watched from below.In 2005, he was cleared of charges he molested a 13-year-old cancer survivor at Neverland in 2003. He had been accused of plying the boy with alcohol and groping him, and of engaging in strange and inappropriate behavior with other children.
The case followed years of rumors about Jackson and young boys. In a TV documentary, he had acknowledged sharing his bed with children, a practice he described as sweet and not at all sexual.Despite the acquittal, the lurid allegations that came out in court took a fearsome toll on his career and image, and he fell into serious financial trouble.
Jackson was preparing for what was to be his greatest comeback: He was scheduled for an unprecedented 50 shows at a London arena, with the first set for July 13. He was in rehearsals in Los Angeles for the concert, an extravaganza that was to capture the classic Jackson magic: showstopping dance moves, elaborate staging and throbbing dance beats.
Singer Dionne Warwick said: "Michael was a friend and undoubtedly one of the world's greatest entertainers that I fortunately had the pleasure of working with. ... We have lost an icon in our industry.
"Hundreds of people gathered outside the hospital as word of his death spread. The emergency entrance at the UCLA Medical Center, which is near Jackson's rented home, was roped off with police tape."Ladies and gentlemen, Michael Jackson has just died," a woman boarding a Manhattan bus called out, shortly after the news was announced. Immediately many riders reached for their cell phones.
So many people wanted to verify the early reports of Jackson's death that the computers running Google's news section interpreted the fusillade of "Michael Jackson" requests as an automated attack for about half an hour Thursday evening.
In New York's Times Square, a low groan went up in the crowd when a screen flashed that Jackson had died, and people began relaying the news to friends by cell phone."No joke. King of Pop is no more. Wow," Michael Harris, 36, of New York City, read from a text message a friend sent to his telephone. "It's like when Kennedy was assassinated. I will always remember being in Times Square when Michael Jackson died."
Associated Press Writers Derrik J. Lang in Los Angeles and Virginia Byrne, Nekesa Mumbi Moody and Jocelyn Noveck in New York contributed to this report.
"Moon Walkin such a trip now, when ya walkin in the lunar dust.."
the real deal behind this video is the combining of efforts; to revive the space program - and get people, especially kids interested in space, math and physics. we think that's the biz-omb.
we were one of those science kids, so we're throwin it up for Buzzy Buzz. share this video with your kids and friends - it family friendly and fun too.
It was probably one small step for Snoop Dogg but it was one giant leap for Buzz Aldrin when he teamed up with the hip-hop artist to record a rap single.
The white-haired astronaut, 79, has accomplished what he claims is his second great mission — becoming a rap star — with a track commemorating the 40th anniversary of the first lunar landing next month.
The single, Rocket Experience, and accompanying video feature the second man on the Moon nodding his head and gyrating in time to the beat as he leans into a microphone to deliver lines such as: “I’m the spaceman, I’m the rocket man, it’s time to venture far, let’s take a trip to Mars, our destiny is to the stars.”
Snoop Dogg, who helped to make the track with the producer Quincy Jones and fellow rap stars Talib Kweli and Soulja Boy, is shown in the video commending Aldrin — who adopted the rap pseudonym Doc Rendezvous — on his vocal skills. “That’s hot right there, man. That’s gangsta,” he says.
The video switches between shots of Aldrin rapping — wearing a T-shirt bearing the slogan “Buzz Aldrin, Rocket Hero” — and archive film of the Apollo 11 launch, his and Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the Moon and recordings of crackly radio exchanges between the astronauts and mission control.
Rocket Experience was instigated by Aldrin as part of his mission to reignite public interest in the US space programme and teach younger generations about space exploration.
“Young people have lost any interest in space that isn’t in a video game or a movie house. Many don’t really know that Man has stood on the Moon,” he said. “But these incredible rappers speak to the new generations and know how to reach them. The Americans who will take Man to Mars are already born and they don’t even know that space is Man’s fate.”
Proceeds from the song and video sales will go to Aldrin’s non-profit foundation, ShareSpace , which supports space education and advocacy programmes carried out by the National Space Society, the Planetary Society and the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation.
It was released on the internet comedy website Funny or Die and is accompanied by a second behind-the-scenes video, which features Aldrin and the rappers giving tongue-in-cheek interviews about the venture.
“I have only two passions: space exploration and hip-hop,” Aldrin jests, after Jones, who won a Grammy Award, tells the camera: “My man Buzz, my brother, he had a great groove going on.”
While Armstrong, the first man on the Moon, has maintained a low public profile, Aldrin has continued to dream up new ways of promoting space exploration.
He maintains a website and has joined Twitter under the name therealBuzz, which he has used to post promotional messages about his rap track and biography.
In Magnificent Desolation: The Long Journey Home from the Moon he recounts how after being elevated to the status of global hero in 1969 he struggled with depression and alcoholism for years.
In 2002 he became a folk hero when he punched a heckler in the jaw in California for accusing him of faking the Moon landing.
In his new video he is shown offering Snoop Dogg some tips on his pugilistic skills: “Say you know Snoop, you’ve gotta do a little more work on your left jab there, dude,” he advises
this post is all about defining the term Blog v. Splog
Many of us don't use the words Splog, or Splogger when we should and today we are aiming to define and clarify that fine line between a Blog and a Splog
"Splog" is short for Spam Blog. Spam blogs are blogs that don't provide any real content for users. They exist solely to game the search engines. These splogs may exist just to have links to other websites or, they may have ads on the blog itself. The content on splogs are auto-generated, either from some other source or a list of useless keywords.
The simplest definition for splog is as follows:
SPAM + BLOG = SPLOG
Splog is a terrorist to our blogosphere and needs to be stopped. This site was created for “good willed” bloggers to report splog in an effort to help to clean up the blogosphere of splog. It was spurred by the called to arms of Mark Cuban here and then followed up by a post on Somewhat Frank.
Okay now we know that Entrecard is a Chief Splog Unit.
Why ?
that's what we are trying to get to the bottom of this week. Why do these UnBlogs seem to clutter the Blogosphere ?
In the case of Entrecard - it's for the Points and Cashout system.
this is the worst way to destroy a blog - add cheap cash or loads of unrelated ads. there are so many ads on some of these Splogs that their pages take forever to load, and when they do, it's hard to even locate the Entrecard Widget on the page; tossed in with all the various and assorted cash generators.
"Splog" is short for Spam Blog. Spam blogs are blogs that don't provide any real content for users. They exist solely to game the search engines. These splogs may exist just to have links to other websites or, they may have ads on the blog itself. The content on splogs are auto-generated, either from some other source or a list of useless keywords.
What is Wrong with Splogs?
Splog clutters the internet with useless content. Web search engines such as Google, Yahoo and MSN, and blog search engines such as Technorati, IceRocket and Bloglines serve to manage the huge amount of information available on the Web. Splog makes it much more difficult to find the useful information.
When reading Blogs are you bothered by all the miscellaneous clutter ?
Oh I am - and I am going to give a few examples of blogs that have this very issue - so that we can see from live examples what Is a Splog -
these are randomly chosen droppers from my Entrecard Inbox from today, that are SPLOGS;
I suggest You take a look at them and decide for yourself, as I am not going to link to them and give them any additional fuel to burn out a real blog. the problem is these folks are doing this because they don't care about the value of real blogs. they are just using any vehicle to get a few pennies out of real bloggers by dropping cards enmasse on Blogs to fill their accounts with cash out credit. the articles, if you call them that are all about One Link to a Paid Article Generator - Am I Wrong ?
We can't say that entrecard is wrong for trying to monitize. it just seems that the monitization rules, have increased the spam load on entrecard at least 5 fold; in the most recent months. before the cashout policy was announced - there were splogs, but not the amount we see now.
When these sploggers gather enmasse to attack a blog - they normally use one viewpoint and post remarkably similar comments; indicating that there is a Herd Mentality in Play.
wouldn't it be better to go to other splogs instead of blogs, for these folks ? I surely think so, since most of them in the case of entrecard spend less than three 3 seconds on your page- Wham Bam and no thank you mamm.. and sadly they admit that's their only plan.
Spam blogs, sometimes referred to by the neologismsplogs[1], are artificially created weblogsites which the author uses to promote affiliated websites or to increase the search engine rankings of associated sites. The purpose of a splog can be to increase the PageRank or backlink portfolio of affiliate websites, to artificially inflate paid ad impressions from visitors, and/or use the blog as a link outlet to get new sites indexed. Spam blogs are usually a type of scraper site, where content is often either inauthentic text or merely stolen (see blog scraping) from other websites. These blogs usually contain a high number of links to sites associated with the splog creator which are often disreputable or otherwise useless websites.
There is frequent confusion between the terms "splog" and "spam in blogs". Splogs are blogs where the articles are fake, and are only created for search engine spamming. To spam in blogs, conversely, is to include random comments on the blogs of innocent bystanders, in which spammers take advantage of a site's ability to allow visitors to post comments that may include links. In fact, one of the earliest uses of the term "splog" referred to the latter. [2]
This is used often in conjunction with other spamming techniques, including spings.
In the blogging world, Reading Is a Must and Commenter's are Winners
these sploggers don't bother to read anything, that requires any length of attention or thought to process. this is evidenced by their quick hit and run attitude coupled with their excuse for attitude responses :
" me for example : I have four(4) blogs so I need to hurry up to four drops in one of your blog, so.. the ending should be comment time but sometimes your topic is not my interests , sorry.. but that is what i feel , so.. in consideration that you drop EC I'll dropped you back and thats all..but.....if you left me comments I'll comments you back..my english is not good but I understand very well and I'm trying to be good."
yes this is an actual comment left on one of our blogs. Can you Imagine ?
such curt rudeness, and lack of simple consideration for the blog and the time the blogger spent to compose their thoughts.
then there is this similar comment - also actually left on one of our blogs:
I question to you? do you always Leave a comment on all the Blogs you visit? Lets say 100-300 blogs. I find something time is limited and it is hard to do this. However I have visitors who have never left any msg, but I know they read or leave my EC to buy ads. I know it is hard to feel rejected but some of us are not rejecting just reading and moving on.:-)
Co'mon, You Come Here for One EC and don't have time to read ? what kind of nonsense is this ? you come to a blog but not to read or comment ? ooiiiiii,,,, damn. (sorry I had to get it out)
one of our Real Readers left this very smart comment in the same post, so we realize that the content was very commentable:
Tis I once again....after reading everyone's comment...I think it is safe to say that we all have our priority list and we all have that right...no matter which order they are placed.
We have all sorts of Bloggers with different reasons for blogging.
Some of us feel that leaving a comment is in fact very important and a show of respect. Some feel that just dropping in is also important and a show of respect. Some blog strictly for the $$$$bling. Some blog for return hits. Some blog to learn. Some blog to share. Some blog to copy and paste :)(naughty) Some blog to meet new people from all over the world. Some blog out of boredom. Some blog to feel good that they have done their 300 ec drops. Some blog to see how many followers they can get. Some blog for the fun of the contests. Some even blog just to get someone to say hello in their shoutbox.
I have seen also groups that basically just visit one another and keep a circle of friends going on. All of these reasons are acceptable as they should be because everyone has a right to blog.
We also have a right to voice our opinions on who comes into our blogs..similar to who walks into our homes.
This commenter put it on the plate, and made it as clear as water. I think we have seen the parallels clearly enough to know the difference between a Blog and a Splog.
This is a BLOG, Not a Splog. there are no teats here to milk; and this blog will not instantly begin to follow anyone who leads it towardpopup coated; ad and virus laden pages, filled with graphic overload, akin to a bad disco nightmare - masquerading as a blog, but no real content.
Content is KING and We are the readers who decide if that's a fact or just a hack. for us, it's a fact. we don't dilly dally with these splogs anymore and when they litter our cbox on our other site, we erase their comments and make sure to ban them. it rarely helps as they find it to be a game to come back and again spam in a foreign language. WHY ?
that is the biggest question of all, Why do they do it ?
My Theory is simplistic - they are unable to comprehend their level of disrespect and or curtail their actions due to their addiction to of all things the US Penny. yeah, penny because each drop is equal to less than a penny; because of their proliferation of splogs.
Have they even considered their part in the desecration of the blogosphere or the ec economy ?
Sadly I lament, the answer is apparently NO.
they are Hit and Run Accidents happening simultaneously all over the blogosphere. truly it's sad.
what can you do to prevent them from treating you like a Goat ?
well there are those who think that leaving Entrecard is the answer. maybe it is in some extreme cases; but we think the real answer is to Read Good Blogs, Comment and Fill your Friends Queue with Real Blogs and Forget That Inbox - because that's the green pasture of these sploggers.
So Today we call on all good entrecarders to Skip That Inbox; and Forget about the Sploggers.
Form Real Reading and Commenting Relationships with BLOGGERS. let the sploggers choke themselves on pennies; and eventually they will have a cheap gas attack. then hopefully those pennies will shower back into the global economy, instead of more cheap splogs.
*note to sploggers - forget commenting and making stupid remarks as I am going to monitor this post for such, and will just delete them since they will undoubtable be worthless space wasters. if you have a constructive discussion item then add it - otherwise, copy the post and share it in your circle so you know who's aware of your hive, and isn't phased by you at all.
Are you concerned about that N.Korean Ship sailing toward Singapore right now ? if you aren't, then maybe you should read the story below and then get a laugh at the video to relieve your stress; because believe me this is a very stressful situation.
No-one is safe at this moment..
Lil Kimmy is on his peroid and since he's got no bloody sense of right and wrong, we may all become bloodclots if he sneezes while gulping courvoisier. that lil witch makes my wart itch. (not that I have any but if I did, no doubt it would; when I think of his lil creepy ass)
personally speaking, if the strong men want to show us all globally how strong they are, why not get on a plane and meet half way; set up a steel cage match; on worldwide free channel and internet. and then bust it up like the real mens you say you are.
oh no doubt Obama would put a whoopin on Lil Kimmy but I know that miniature asshole would wanna put some ish in the game. so we need to be ready to act if necessary - and what should we do, well watch this video..
it's Tricky Tuesday so What Can I say; bend over and kiss your planet goodbye.. not today folks, not today..
He's Barack Obama - the new jibjab video released 06/19/09
(Reuters) - The U.S. Navy is tracking a North Korean ship under a new U.N. resolution that bars Pyongyang from trading in weapons, including missile parts and nuclear material.
U.S. officials have declined to say what the Kang Nam might be carrying, but said it was "a subject of interest." The vessel left a North Korean port on Wednesday.
WHAT IS THE LATEST?
Fox News quoted a senior U.S. military source as saying the ship appeared to be heading toward Singapore and that the navy destroyer USS John McCain was positioning itself in case it gets orders to intercept, according to a story on its website.
Singapore, a U.S. ally, said it takes "seriously the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction" and would act "appropriately" against the ship if the vessel heads to its port with a cargo of weapons. Singapore is the world's top ship refueling hub. It was unclear how long the vessel would be able to sail before it needs to refuel.
The Kang Nam is the first North Korean ship to be monitored under the new resolution, adopted this month in response to Pyongyang's May 25 nuclear test. The resolution authorized U.N. member states to inspect North Korean sea, air and land cargo.
The United States and others have said they suspect North Korea of selling arms, missile parts and proliferating nuclear expertise in violation of earlier U.N. sanctions.
HOW MIGHT THE SITUATION PLAY OUT?
A U.S. naval vessel could intercept the ship, which is believed to be North Korean flagged, while it is in international waters and officers could seek permission to board. According to the resolution, permission must be given by the flag nation, or Pyongyang in this case, which would be sure to refuse.
North Korea has not commented on the monitoring of the ship but is likely to regard any attempt to inspect its cargo as highly provocative and a further reason to test the resolve of the international community. It has threatened a military strike if any country tries to impose any sort of naval blockade.
WHAT DOES THE U.N. RESOLUTION ALLOW?
The resolution calls upon -- but does not order -- U.N. member states to inspect cargo to and from North Korea if there are reasonable grounds to believe it contains banned materials.
It calls upon member states to inspect vessels, with the consent of the flag state, on the high seas, if they have information the ship is carrying prohibited materials.
If the flag state refuses to give permission, it is supposed to ask the vessel to sail to a convenient port for inspection by local authorities, who should seize any banned goods and destroy them. However, the resolution does not authorize the use of force. If a North Korean ship refuses to be inspected, the only recourse is to report the refusal to the Security Council.
The resolution also says member states should withhold fuel and supplies to North Korean vessels if a ship is believed to contain prohibited items unless provision of such services would be needed on humanitarian grounds.
This raises the prospect of a protracted standoff in a foreign port should the North Korean vessel try to dock to refuel and the captain refuse to allow local authorities on board.
WHY WOULD NORTH KOREA SEEK TO FLOUT THE SANCTIONS?
Weapons exports are a key source of revenue for North Korea's broken economy.
A study by the U.S.-based Institute for Foreign Policy Analysis think tank estimated North Korea, whose annual GDP is about $20 billion, earns some $1.5 billion a year from missile sales. North Korean missile technology has already been exported to Pakistan, Libya, Iran, Syria and Egypt. Washington says Pyongyang has also exported nuclear technology to Syria.
A drop in trade and the value of North Korea's currency has cut the regime's access to foreign exchange, further raising the risk Pyongyang will increase the sale of its military know-how.
SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Singapore will take action against a North Korean ship that the United States is monitoring, if the vessel heads to its port with a cargo of weapons, the government said on Saturday.
"Singapore takes seriously the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, their means of delivery and related materials," said a spokeswoman from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"If the allegation is true, Singapore will act appropriately." The U.S. Navy is monitoring a vessel called Kang Nam at sea under new U.N. sanctions that bar North Korea from exporting weapons, including missile parts and nuclear materials.
Fox News quoted a senior U.S. military source saying the ship appeared to be heading toward Singapore and that the navy destroyer USS John McCain was positioning itself in case it gets orders to intercept, according to a story on its website.
Singapore, a U.S. ally, has the world's busiest shipping port, with most containers being trans-shipments between East and West, and it is also the world's top ship refueling hub.
Singapore government agencies could not give information on the current location of the ship.
"We don't know even whether she is coming to Singapore," said a source at the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, which is responsible for security in Singapore waters and at its port.
The U.S. officials said the ship became "a subject of interest" after leaving a North Korean port on Wednesday.
The Kang Nam is the first ship to be monitored under the U.N. sanctions adopted last week after Pyongyang raised tensions by test-firing missiles, restarting a plant to produce arms-grade plutonium and conducting a nuclear test.
The U.S. has deployed anti-missile assets to the Pacific in case Pyongyang launches more missiles, U.S. officials have said.
North Korea's media on Saturday said it was not threatened by new sanctions after a U.N. committee said it was considering blacklisting more North Korea companies, and individuals, for supporting Pyongyang's nuclear and missile programs.
"It is foolish and ridiculous of our enemy powers to call for more sanctions and isolation... (do they think) it could make us even raise our eyebrows one bit?" North Korea's Rodong Sinmum newspaper said in a commentary.
"If they point a gun at us, we will get back with a cannon. If they point a cannon, we will point missiles and for sanctions, we will give them revenge. Getting back with a nuclear weapon for a nuclear weapon is what we do."

I have finally made a concrete positive decision on how to deal with Entrecard. it took just one comment to make that happen; and voila today it happens.
I can't believe you think of this as "racism"....FYI, dropping by is "normal".....and dropping EC is normal.That's what you get for being an EC member. Entrecard really promotes traffic but produces high bounce rate---meaning, droppers just drop cards and spend 3 seconds in ur blog, never read and never comment. So what? That's the way it works. If you don't want this, you might as well get out of EC . Another thing is , no one is obligated to leave a comment nor read a blog post. You can never force anyone who drops by at your blog to spend his time reading. If he does not care, so what? You , as a blogger, should have the responsibility to improve your content and devise ways to make anyone drop by ---not just drop by but read your content and leave comment. There is no blogging rule that exists in this world that says "everyone who drops by should leave a comment". Bloggers have different purposes why they blog. So if one just wants to make money, he may never care to read ur blog. If he just wants reciprocal traffic, he may never leave a comment. If he wants commenters, he may comment in other blogs to encourage commenting on his blog. As I've said, there are no blogging rules. Each one to his own. But I tell you, if you just want everybody who drops by at your blog ---either get out of EC or either strive hard to encourage commenting. Just like me, if I drop an EC on a blog and the blog post caught my attention, I would read . If I have something to say, I comment. If not, I don't. If I don't have the time to comment I don't. I only comment on blog posts that interest me, relevant to me or something where I am interested to comment on. If not , then I don't. So don't feel upset about it. It's just the way it is. If you don't like the way it is, then don't blog.
Now First thing I noticed is that this writer begins his post with the accusation of racism.Hmmmm ? where did I read that before,
http://www.rolandmarcial.com/ My blogger Vhinghad sent me a message about this Bad Guywriting harsh words and racist comments about my entrecard drops. I was fuming mad when I read your post. You just wrote insensible and irrational method as a blogger and maybe, you don't understand what is EC all about.
If you want a blog purely for your friends, then keep it private and remove your EC card badge in your blog for your peace of mind. This is because you hate people who just drop their cards and without leaving comments. That is a very silly, immature behaviour. In my opinion, I don't care people not leaving comments and there are reasons for that either they don't like the contents and have no time to leave a comment. But I returned a comment only if they left a message. But if not, it doesn't bother me at all and I will be thankful for their time in dropping a card or passing by.
I'm a top commenter to blogs that I like to comment and the contents that would interest me.
And also, you also left harsh comments to all Filipinos. You said you are not a PINAY (of course because pinay is a female term) and you love pinays (do you gf's?), I don't think so. You did the same to others. This is not all about blogging but you are downgrading us and racist.
(end of clipping)
So the solution is - NO MORE INBOX DROPS - I AM HENCEFORTH ONLY DROPPING FROM MY FAVORITES.
This false claim of Racism made me so mad, that i decided I had to seperate myself from people who would lie and play with my reputation in this silly and very immature manner. So if you missed anything, let me sum it up in a simple sentence - Droppers Have a Ball.
VHING F - YOU and ROLLY ARE NOT WELCOMED HERE - ANYMORE.YOU ARE BOTH SHIT STARTERS, AND LIARS. BITCHES BEGONE NEVER ONCE DID I SAY ANYTHNG BAD OR NEGATIVE ABOUT ANYONE PHILIPINO - I HAVE PHILIPINO RELATIVES, AND FRIENDS; SO I WOULDN'T DO IT - EVEN IF YOU LIE AND SAY I WOULD.
I Love My Visitors, The Folks Who Appreciate MY BLOG, and Realize that This is a TWO WAY Communication Vehicle; Not a place where people invent half truths to blow their own heads up.
Henceforth Friends, Neighbors and Visitors - This is a Pork Free / Gas Free Environment, It's Lean, Mean, and Green; NO GAS UP's Here Thank You.
Welcome to the New BadGals; where we don't give our Inbox a second look - ever. also if you want to comment, you can no longer be annonymous - own your shit.
Some of you may recognize this letter as one I've sent and posted before - if you see yourself in this role - then put your name in that space.
BTW, This note was inspired by My Fellow Entrecard Blogger Bob Gold, who is also tired of his pr and bounce rates being faked out by NON READERS;
Hello Rolling Dropper: - who has 6 exact copies of the same blog - and drops 6 cards a day on each of my blogs; but never spends more than 10 seconds on my blog; according to what my stats show me from their visits.
I am hoping when you read this you will keep an open mind. I have received your drops for a few weeks now and to be honest, never one comment.
there is nothing on your 6 blogs that to be honest I can comment on except that your pics are all the same on all your sites; and you seem to be catering to the pinay crowd.
1. I am not Pinay; but I like Pinays. 2. I am not interested in Family Parties; I am a Political Blogger. 3. I am not interested in people who care nothing about my blog and only want to get One EC from my Time. never bothering to even read a story and or leave a single comment, on anything.
I have three blogs in Entrecard, and you've never left a single comment on any of them, but you keep making my bounce rate higher. NOT NICE.
please don't misunderstand, I think blogging is great but I want READERS; I do NOT WANT droppers, Who Leave me with a high bounce rate.
So Rolling Dropper, it would be so nice if you would pick one of your blogs to drop on me ONLY. Because your drops make the bounce rate rise, and never a comment makes it even harder to swallow.
so, from now on when I see your card in my inbox, I will only return ONE DROP A DAY. Please consider my words and think about what you are doing to the bouncerate of other blogs when you Hit and Run that way.
if you think I am being Hard - then dont' bother to drop at all. sorry but I am so tired of the return drops to non commenters, who purposely do not read or care about what is on a blog - only the ONE EC DROP.
trust me there are better ways to make friends and to get money, on the internet.
btw I will be posting this to my blog tonite so you can see it when you DROP - and Yes It will be clearly written to you, so you know.
We have a problem with wallabies entering poppy fields, getting as high as a kite and going around in circles. Then they crash 
I can't believe you think of this as "racism"....FYI, dropping by is "normal".....and dropping EC is normal.That's what you get for being an EC member.
