    Even Most Directors Think CEO Pay is Too High

    And if these directors are so aware of their pay being way too high, why won't more of them accept a paycut? A director is supposed to represent a whole company, and if he or she can't make them...how can they expect the rest of the company to sacrifice?

    Really odd to hear when an auto manufacturer thinks that a recall is actually going to beneficial to the company...since it usually ends up working quite the other way around. Strange times these days, it would seem!

    Philips' Bright Future for Lightbulbs

    As much as some people may have thought otherwise, the Lightbulb industry is constantly innovating, and coming up with new types of lightbulbs to increase lifespans, or to work well under specific conditions. Nobody seems to realize this though!

    AdSense Oddity: Gizmodo Burial Urns

    I have never used Adsense before, but it usually does seem to be giving relevent results on other sites, sometimes to the point that it ends up becoming more than a little bit creepy, and almost stalkerish.

    China's Online Censors Work Overtime

    Such a shame that China is still so censor heavy and treat their own people so badly. With how much people talk about North Korea being oppressive, we frequently forget that China is quite bad as well.

    .info sites

    One of the main factors for .info being so much cheaper is because the domain name is less appealing, and also because many cheap junk sites and search portals have a history of being on .info site names, which makes them difficult to be taken seriously.

    Receiving money by Westen Union?

    How much money do you need monthly/daily to run your family?

    I really do not feel comfortable disclosing my expenses, but I will say that I live in a very expensive State...and my family is barely staying afloat at all, and it seems to be getting harder and harder all the time, and I seem to be earning less each year, instead of more :(

    Are you a moderator of any site?

    I have Modded and even Adminned for many different websites and forums over the years, but I haven't been doing much of that for the past year or so now. Being a regular Mod isn't really that stressful, especially if you have a light work-load.
