Rather than merely reporting the date that a particular web page was last "seen" by the search engine, Gigablast's patent-pending "freshness dating" algorithms estimate the last date that relevant changes were made to the web page. This innovative technology gives users unparalleled flexibility to find the right results from the right time. As an added benefit, Gigablast is implementing the most privacy-conscious personal data policy of the major search engines.
Make it worth the risk, says Manley
I am not convinced that paragraphs cut and pasted from a previous report signifies a pre-defined report.
It could be as simple as certain findings matching the previous report thus the cut and paste. I just know that I am comfortable with the report and it's recommendations. Posted 23/01/08 at 1:51 PM EST | Alert an Editor | Link to Comment .

Snapper rules mean healthy fishery
Sending more boats won't help us catch more fish. Fisheries boom, then bust Overfishing means catching fish faster than they can reproduce. Overfishing pushes the fish population lower and lower, until fish are so few that fishermen can't make a living any more. Many fisheries have already collapsed, throwing thousands of people out of work. All over the world, fishery after fishery booms as we send in more boats, then busts as the fish population crashes. Off New England, cod were once so plentiful that boats had trouble pushing through them. Now the cod are nearly gone, and a centuries-old fishing tradition is ending. Other overfished species include sharks, bluefin tuna and many kinds of West Coast rockfish. When one kind of fish is no longer plentiful, fishermen must move on to new species.
Kid Rock cometh
Kid Rock's fans know full well how his musical temperament seems to careen all over the map.Exhibit A, of course, is his 2002 segue into easy-listening/country balladry.The result was "Picture," a blockbuster Top 40 hit duet with Sheryl Crow -- the one you could play in front of your grandma without fear of being told to go to the bathroom and wash your mouth and ears out with soap.Imagine the surprise of freshly hatched Kid Rock fans motivated by the single to pick up the album it hailed from, "Cocky."There "Picture" was, nestled between the more Kid Rock-like likes of "You Never Met a (expletive deleted) Quite Like Me."But they hadn't, indeed.That's OK, says the man born Robert James Ritchie: "I love stuff that comes from outside the box."While Kid Rock won't be bringing fellow U.S. Cellular Coliseum alumnus Crow to his Saturday night "Rock and Roll Revival Tour" show at the venue, he will be chaperoning several pals from differing sectors of the American pop music spectrum.Among them: rap pioneer Reverend Run (the "Run" in Run-D.M.C.) and classic rock veteran Peter Wolf (former front man for the J.
Despite lingering questions, faith-based prison programs multiply
I love this place," says their warden, Cynthia Tilley. "It's so calm."They're praising the Carol Vance Unit, founded in 1997 on the outskirts of Houston. It's the oldest of a rapidly growing number of faith-based prison facilities across the nation.Even as they proliferate, fueled by the fervor of devout volunteers, these programs are often criticized. Evidence that they reduce recidivism is inconclusive, and skeptics question whether the prevailing evangelical tone of the units discriminates against inmates who don't share their conservative Christian outlook.However, evidence is strong that violence and trouble-making drop sharply in these programs, and they often are the only vibrant rehabilitation option at a time when taxpayer-funded alternatives have been cut back.Inmates at Vance offer another compelling argument.
TimesSelect, R.I.P.?
The velvet rope outside any ordinary New York club seems more obnoxious. ... 1:53 A.M. I always thought of L.A.'s Earl Ofari Hutchinson as an establishment-friendly, coalition-preserving PC type. I guess I was wrong--here he is on Mirthala Salinas, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's girlfriend, who may or may not lose her job next week: Salinas is as much a victim of Tony's rapacious political and media egoism as she is a victim of her heart. Politics is a dirty business and the dirt and the business doesn't stop at the bedroom door. If a politician can lie, cheat and manipulate to scurry up the political career ladder, that same politician can lie, cheat and manipulate love. [E.A.] P.S.: Some of the most rapacious and egoistic pols are the best leaders, of course.
Thinking Right
Whether the limited-government party of Ronald Reagan can win the White House or whether its chances would be improved by reinventing conservatism, is a subtext of a long primary season which is yet to establish a clear Republican front-runner. Throughout the administration of President Bush, the party has wrestled with accommodation with Big Government. That dilemma will persist for decades to come. After the initial success of former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, American Enterprise Institute scholar Henry Olsen and others questioned whether Republicans were tempted to invent themselves as a pro-faith, pro-government party akin to Europe's Christian Democrats. "Christian Democrat parties have always distinguished themselves from liberals and socialists," he wrote in The Wall Street Journal, "favoring private property and traditional values while supporting government regulation and taxation to ameliorate what they perceive to be capitalism's defects." Whether the model is perceived as European or as Democrat-light, it is increasingly clear that a limited-government party that exercises fiscal discipline is a tough sell — no reason to give up, but a reason to keep focused on the end game.
