		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.newsbooster.com/?pg=lost&amp;lan=eng&quot;&gt;In Denmark today&lt;/a&gt;, a judge rules against a search engine that &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.newsbooster.com/?pg=press2&amp;lan=eng&quot;&gt;respects&lt;/a&gt; the robots.txt convention, and stops it from &quot;deep linking&quot; into sites run by the Danish newspaper association. All these court cases are as stupid as dirt. Several good technical preventatives exist. First, if the search engine supports robots.txt, you can simply edit the file on your site, and save the lawyer's fees. If it doesn't support robots.txt, first raise the issue in public, and the tech weblogs will get right on it. If that doesn't work, add a simple script to your server to look at the referer attribute on the HTTP request and if it isn't from your site, redirect to your deep linking policy page. We know for sure that when a company goes to court for &quot;deep linking&quot; that they aren't talking to, or listening to, their technical people. BTW, deep linking is an &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dictionary.com/search?q=oxymoron&quot;&gt;oxymoron&lt;/a&gt;. There's only one kind of linking on the Web. Why would you ever point to the home page of a news oriented site. " created="Fri, 05 Jul 2002 16:03:22 GMT"/>

As good as Silence of the Lambs. A dark vision of the not too distant future. Captivating. Clockwork Orangish. Great acting, great plot, something for your mind, a surprise around every corner. Some bloggers reported that the movie starts well but ends poorly, I have no idea what they're talking about. I was sitting on the edge of my chair from beginning to end, enthralled and delighted and at times freaked out. I'll see it again, for sure." created="Fri, 05 Jul 2002 14:15:59 GMT"/>
		<outline text="I've seen two movies in 48 hours and both movies began with five minutes of commercials, for Coca Cola, Bank of America, some stupid British car that's now available in the US, and some other insipid and worthless products. These ads stood out for two reasons. First, I paid $9 US currency to watch each of these movies. I remember what products intruded on this experience &lt;i&gt;that I paid for&lt;/i&gt; and will go out of my way to spread bad &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dictionary.com/search?q=juju&quot;&gt;juju&lt;/a&gt; on their brands at the slightest opportunity. Second, there's no way to fast forward over the stinking commercials as I can on TV. Arrrgh. I don't watch commercials anymore. I resent that they force themselves on me in an environment I paid to be part of. " created="Fri, 05 Jul 2002 15:21:52 GMT"/>
