Exposing Bill Belichick's evil plot to take down all of football - ESPN

Bill Belichick dodged a bullet with Spygate. But what if Spygate was all a diversion for a far more nefarious plot? A plot in which the behooded coach is sending his associates across the country to destroy all those who have ever wronged him.

I investigated Belichick’s scheme. And I think what I found will shock you.

A very interesting article. It says Bellichick has an evil plan to exact vengeance on teams that have wronged him in the past.

Targets: New York Jets, Cleveland Browns, Notre Dame U, Denver Broncos and Kansas City. All places where former Belichick’s assistants have gone, so far those assistants haven’t had productive stints

Truth or Fiction its a fun read.

The main difference between the Left and Right wings

I’m somewhere in between. But I’m closer to the left than the stupid conservative right.

If I Ran the NFL

For one thing, there’d be no more of these keep-your-hands-off-the-receiver, high-octane-offense, no-lead-is-safe mockeries of a football game. Oh, and fewer talking-baby ads. An Article every NFL fan should read

Asif Ali Zardari Jokes

Zardari jokes:

  • “Terrorists have kidnapped our beloved Zardari and are demanding $5,000,000 or they will burn him with petrol. Please donate what you can. I have donated five litres.”
  • To commemorate the ascension to the Presidency, Pakistan Post has officially launched a new stamp. But the people of Pakistan are confused which side on the stamp to spit on.
  • Robber: “Give me all your money!”
    Zardari: “Don’t you know who I am? I am Asif Ali Zardari.”
    Robber: “OK. Give me all my money”

Apparently the Pakistani president Asif Zardari has banned jokes which ridicule him or the political leadership of the country.

Gulfnews: Sharjah police enforce old law against men wearing accessories

…police said men are not allowed to wear bracelets or any fashion accessories in Sharjah malls even if it is silver and not gold.

“Men are not allowed to wear such accessories. Everybody is aware of that,” he said. “We are informing people through the media and people should be aware of that,” he said.

Islam forbids men from wearing gold and silk.

This is so retarded. WTF

Software Developers and Tech Support

It seems so obvious: if you want to develop software that’s useful to people, you’ve got to talk with them. But too many developers take the anti-social approach and consider customer support to be beneath their status…If you really want to write useful software, stop spending all your time keeping up with technology. Don’t worry if your resume isn’t filled with the latest buzzwords. Instead, invest your time in talking with your customers. They don’t care what programming language you use – they only care whether your software meets their needs, and the best way to ensure that is by breaking out of your cone of silence and opening the lines of communication.

I’ve always believed that a software developer’s duty doesn’t end when his code is pushed live. Your software is never perfect and you will always have a user who finds problems with your UI, doesn’t know what this feature means or you’ve simply misunderstood the requirements.

Support for your software shouldn’t be like an add-on warranty you purchase at Best Buy. It should be given away because support is a feature of your product.

Software without support is useless.

Much Ado About IE6 (Digg Blog)

It still sucks how companies refuse to upgrade from IE6. The browser was release eight years ago. (Remember what you were doing eight years ago on the internet?)
Once someone breaks into their systems through IE6 they’ll learn a lesson. (hint hint)

Bing versus Google

I tried a simple search for “Federer” here’s the differences. Google gave me the most relevant search results without having to click any extra links.

Federer Google.png

From Google the news sources I get are:
- Boston Herald
- The Sport Review
- Xinhua News Agency (Chinese News Agency which supplies info to various newspapers around the world)
- NBC Sports

Here’s Bing:



The default search didn’t give me any recent info/news so I had to click on “News” on the left hand side.



The top results it gave me were from:
- Chicago Sun Times
- Asheville Citizen-Times (Where the hell is Asheville?)
- Augusta Chronicle
- Arizona Daily Star
- Tehran Times (An Iranian News website?)

Seriously - these are the news sources I get first?

I like Bing, its much better live.com ever was but still needs to improve a lot. Federer just won the French Open and it was big news, so it  should have displayed the information right on the frontpage of the search results. Even after drilling down to news I got some not so reputable links.

Nevertheless, my experiment to use Bing as my default search engine still continues. Make sure to check out the Search Engine Blind Test - which is a fun little experiment to play with the perception of search engines results.
