PageRank Distribution Removed From WMT

What a big news!

Just come accorss this topic and perhaps I am not too late to discover this latest Googles’s decision.

Here is the related link: PageRank Distribution Removed From WMT

And I had read so much of comments about this topic. Personnally I am welcome this decision. Like most of the bloggers, I do wish my site can get a good PR ranking.

Site with good PR ranking does it means that the site is famous and good quality? How to get good ranking? Is the ranking fair enough? So many queries out there and most of us having the unknown answers.

Today onwards, no more working on to get higher PR. :)

Visitors from Belarus

I am having some queries here.

I am so happy to see there are comments waiting for moderation every time I log into my site. This means that my site is having visitors coming in and they take no hassle to leave me comments. This is at my first thought.

Lately I am query why there is the one and only post that keep on receiving comments? I am wondering is that because the post that I published is so famous but I know this is not the true. The true is this post is cached in the search engine.

The next question comes to me is why those comments are all wrote in Belorussian? At the beginning I delete all those comments because of unknown language until I take my initiative to check and recognized it. I approved some of the comments after editing the translation to English.

As per Wikipedia, Belorussian is spoken in Belarus, Poland, in 14 other countries. I am now interesting and wish to know more about these countries especially Belarus now. :)

Moral of the Story

A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package.

“What food might this contain?” The mouse wondered.
He was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap.

Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed this warning :
“There is a mousetrap in the house!
There is a mousetrap in the house!”

The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, “Mr… Mouse, I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it.”

The mouse turned to the pig and told him,
“There is a mousetrap in the house!
There is a mousetrap in the house!”

The pig sympathized, but said, “I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse,
but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers.”

The mouse turned to the cow and said,
“There is a mousetrap in the house!
There is a mousetrap in the house!”

The cow said, “Wow, Mr. Mouse. I’m sorry for you, but it’s no skin off my nose.”

So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected,
to face the farmer’s mousetrap . . . Alone. . .

That very night a sound was heard throughout the house
— the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey..

The farmer’s wife rushed to see what was caught.
In the darkness, she did no see it.
It was a venomous snake whose tail was caught in the trap.

The snake bit the farmer’s wife.

The farmer rushed her to the hospital.

When she returned home she still had a fever.
Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup.
So the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup’s main ingredient:

But his wife’s sickness continued.
Friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock.
To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.

But, alas, the farmer’s wife did not get well….
She died.

So many people came for her funeral that the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of them for the funeral luncheon.

And the mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with great sadness.

So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and you think it doesn’t concern you,

Remember —

When one of us is threatened, we are all at risk.
We are all involved in this journey called life.
We must keep an eye out for one another and make an extra effort
to encourage one another.

Love our EARTH! Global warming is not a new issue today. Our environment is totally different from before. Tsunami, earth quake, windstorm, winter is arrived early in same of the country. Natural disaster is coming continuously one by one.

You don’t care at all? Don’t continue incorrigible!

Please do whatever we can do to protect our earth. Every single little effort of recycle, reuse do helps. This is the place that we live and we do have the responsibility to keep it in good condition.

Perhaps none of us will be the one in the story!

Liquid Hand Sanitizer & Washing Hand

Wash hand with soap and rinse by water is the normal practice to keep our hands clean. I did use antibacterial hand soap but I never try hand sanitizer until the AH1N1 arrived.

Clean and kill germs without rinse by water. For sure hand sanitizer brings convenience to everyone as well as to protect us from germs.

But this is the incident what we are not expected. Every product we used, we must used it in the correct way. This is the basic knowledge that we need to educate our children. Please beware.

In view of the AH1N1 liquid hand sanitizer has been widely used. Young or old please read and be aware.

Warning for all parents/grandparents, a friend sent this to me and I thought it was important enough to send on…..we all know someone with children -

Yesterday, my youngest daughter, Halle who is just 4 years old, was rushed to the ER by her father for being severely lethargic and incoherent in her classroom. He was called to her school by the school secretary who said that she was ‘VERY VERY SICK’!

He told me that when he arrived at her classroom, Halle was barely sitting in the chair. She couldn’t hold her own head up and when he looked into her eyes, she couldn’t focus them.

He immediately scooped her up and rushed her to the closest ER, and then called me. When he got there, they ran blood test after blood test and did x-rays, every test imaginable. Her white blood cell count was normal and nothing was out of the ordinary. When I arrived at the ER, the doctor there told us that he had done everything that he could do so he was transferring her to Saint Francis Hospital for further tests.

Right as we were leaving in the ambulance, her teacher arrived at the ER and told us that after questioning Halle’s classmates, she had found out that our little girl had licked liquid hand sanitizer off of her hands!

Hand sanitizer, of all things. But it makes sense. These days they have all kinds of different scents and flavors and when you have a curious child, they are going to put all kinds of things into their mouths.

When we arrived at the Saint Francis’ Hospital ER, we told the ER Doctor there to check her blood alcohol level, and yes we did get weird looks, but they did it.

The results showed her blood alcohol level was 85% – six hours after we first took her. There’s no telling what it would have been if we would have requested it at the first ER.

Since then, her school and a few surrounding schools have taken the liquid hand sanitizers out of all the lower grade classes, but what’s to stop middle and high scholars from ingesting this stuff?

After doing research on the Internet, we found out that it only takes about 3 squirts of the stuff ingested to be fatal to a toddler.

For her blood alcohol level to be so high, it would be like someone her size drinking 120 proof liquor. So PLEASE don’t disregard this because we don’t ever want another family to go through what ours has gone through.

Please send this to everyone you know who has children or are planning to have children.

It doesn’t matter what age. This could affect anyone of them.

Washing hand is easy but it can be a big knowledge to someone as well. :P
