Lives in London, United Kingdom
Since May 2012
I arrive in Florence on a sunny Thursday afternoon to meet a friend who is already waiting for me at the very conveniently and centrally located hotel, which we have strategically chosen. The plan: to live Florence to the fullest for 3 days. I find my friend, drop my bags and we are off. We aim for Piazza del Duomo. We talk of many things as we walk and do not realize, as we go through the tiny cobbled streets, pass the crowded cafes and gelataries, that Florence is gingerly working its charm and paving its way through our hearts. Finally we reach Piazza del Duomo, the epicentre of the Renaissance. Our enthusiasm at the sight of everything around us (Santa Maria del Fiore aka il Duomo, il Battistero di San Giovanni and il Campanile di Giotto) is shared by all other tourists pointing at the attractions encountered so many times on art history textbook pages, now taking life and shape in front of their eyes. People armed with cameras avidly snapping away, in a frantic attempt to capture the many beauties around one square under the Florentine sky. We join the queue and buy our admission tickets to the various monuments. To think this is only the start of our tour…

This is the very heart of Florence: The main church with the famous Cupola by Brunelleschi. The exterior walls are built in different marbles which combine with one another in a captivating game of hues, a style that has given Tuscan cities a most distinguished look throughout the centuries. The building was initiated in the early Italian Renaissance, in the 13th Century, and completed during the high Renaissance period. Although construction and decoration took several hundred years, once you enter and have the chance to admire it in its full splendor, you'll conclude it was worth the wait!
If you want to give chronological sense to your art tour, it is important that you visit this attraction before the others in Piazza Duomo: Il Battistero is a more medieval accomplishment and more faithful in its interiors to earlier style trends. It is entirely decorated in gold and the light reflections are impressive.
Behind Piazza Duomo, this taverna has a good selection of local dishes to choose from, and a good wine list. Prices are very reasonable, considering the very central location, and while the food is not high standard or sophisticated cuisine, it is good food on a budget and I would recommend it at least for a quick bite. My personal favorite here is the 'pasta e ceci' with 'lardo di colonnata' - a typical Tuscan dish.
This museum is located directly behind the Duomo and contains the major oeuvres relating to the buildings surrounding the square. It gives visitors a very good background on how the famous Florentine buildings were constructed, as well as playing host to some of the most prominent Renaissance artworks. My personal favorite is Michelangelo's Florentine Pietà. Although the one mostly referred to is situated in the Vatican museums in Rome, the one you'll find here is definitely worthy of attention, too. It is a later work by a more mature Michelangelo. The sculpture represents the Virgin Mary, Mary Magdalene and Nicodemus holding Jesus as they take him down from the cross. The young Michelangelo is apparently also represented by Jesus himself, who is sculpted with a remarkably more vigorous and robust body than its counterpart in the Vatican.
It's 85 meters tall, and of course, I took the stairs all the way up, which is exactly what I advise other visitors to do! The reward at the top? Florence — the view of the entire cityscape in all its glorious colors and gentle forms. It makes for a memorable experience.
Possibly the most important museum in the city. If you are an art lover, you have found Mecca. This gallery includes works by Michelangelo, Botticelli and Da Vinci, to name but a few...
This unique gallery is located near Piazza San Marco, and it's famed for hosting the original statue of David by Michelangelo. (The most photographed version in Piazza della Signoria, is, in fact, a replica.)
Florence is not a metropolis by any standard: It is a fairly small city, easily toured on foot and not overpopulated. Still, the sheer amount of art it contains is overwhelming, and exploring it all makes for hungry work. If a delicious Florentine steak (when in Florence!) is just what your appetite is craving, Buca Lapi is the place for you. The atmosphere is warm, the smells are sensational, and the steaks are perfectly cooked, rare and served in generous portions.
One of my favorite churches: Its colors are vivid and you get an immediate sense of harmony and peace when you venture inside. The main attractions here are the Crucifix by Giotto, Masaccio's Holy Trinity and the Crucifix by Brunelleschi.
This Basilica is located a little outside the city center and therefore tends not to be as crowded as the other churches in Florence. Reaching the building preceded by incredibly steep steps is an experience in itself, and attention must be paid to the church's stunning mosaic decoration.
Head to Ponte Vecchio on foot and explore this ancient photogenic bridge, first built in Roman times, and then rebuilt in the Middle Ages. It crosses the Arno River and makes for an evocative stroll.
This is a great local place for good local food at a good price, situated near to the outdoor market. Tripe, a most popular Florentine dish, is one of their specialties, and the ribollita is delicious, too. Ribollita consists of a chunky soup whose main ingredient is usually cannellini beans, also very typical of the area.

Lancaster, Pa — For a little more than 20 months, club owners have had more flooring choices than in the past. That's because in November 2007, rubber flooring manufacturer Dodge-Regupol split into two companies — ECORE International and Regupol America. As a result, one large vendor has become two vendors, creating more competition, more flooring choices and helping to decrease flooring prices.
Some manufacturers in the flooring industry aren't enthusiastic about the split, says Rick Snyder, CEO of U.S. Rubber, a Colton, CA, supplier of flooring products made from recycled rubber. The Dodge-Regupol breakup has added another manufacturer to an already crowded market at a time when club openings and refurbishments have decreased, he says.
"If it gets too competitive and we're all going after the same slice of business, it's going to impact our margins," Snyder says. "We are definitely interested in seeing how things shake out. We hope it doesn't end up in a price war."
However, some manufacturers say they've benefitted from the split. Mateflex, a Utica, NY, flooring manufacturer and distributor, has had a 25 percent increase in its rubber flooring sales since the Dodge-Regupol split, which loosened the company's stronghold on the market, says Gabe Martini, sales manager for the company.
"Before, we had a giant we couldn't compete against," he says. "Now, consumers are in the mindset to shop around. When they start shopping, they won't just look at these two companies, but they are bidding other companies as well, which has opened up the market."
David Phillips, designer for Fabiano Designs, Montclair, NJ, says, "The more flooring companies, the more opportunities to do something special or unique," Phillips says.
Bob LePage, vice president and CEO of Gold's Gym franchises in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, says that he has noticed a decrease in the cost of solid black rubber fitness flooring but not in higher-end flooring materials with a higher color blend.
This drop in rubber flooring pricing may make fitness flooring a buyers' market, but factors beyond the Dodge-Regupol split could be causing the decrease, says Phillips. Pricing often depends on a project's location, flooring quantity, color flecks and connections with vendors.
"Pricing with rubber flooring as with all pricing of late is very different than what was happening a year ago," Phillips says. "There have been a lot of cutbacks in budget, though the manufacturing companies still require [that] their product be spec'd over the other. That makes it very difficult to try to compare pricing at this time."
The two companies involved in the split are headquartered only 25 miles from one another — and each has plans to make competition more difficult.
ECORE International, Lancaster, PA, retained all of Dodge-Regupol's operating units and brands. Since last fall, ECORE added more than 30 color patterns. It also partnered with Nike to include Nike Grind dust in Everlast Sports Surfacing. The company also plans to launch a new laminated system for indoor and outdoor sports surfaces this fall.
"These improvements benefit ECORE's customers by providing an expanded color spectrum and increasing recycled content resources, setting a new paradigm for design when working with recycled rubber surfacing," says Kathryn Ross, director of marketing at ECORE.
Meanwhile, Regupol America, Lebanon, PA, has rebranded its sports and fitness flooring surfaces as Regupol Aktiv and is manufacturing the recycled rubber flooring at its plant in western Pennsylvania. The company introduced two color lines last December for clubs' free weight, selectorized, cardio and walkway areas.
"We've been very well received, and we look forward to working in the marketplace," says George Soukas, president of Regupol America. "We've had a very exciting and promising start."

I guess you fit exactly the descriptions of "troll". And the post was moderated down too. Yep, that happens even on OSNEWS, were you thought the level of intelligence should be too high.
But no. I guess somebody brought their fanboys, or someone is suffering dementia.
Edited 2012-01-26 01:22 UTC
Fascinating how a place as decent as Norway (and being one of most irreligious, one of most secular ones around, is certainly large part of this decency) still sometimes spawns somebody like you ...oh well, allowing such rare (a dying breed, really, at least in average decent place) instances is a necessary inconvenience / a price to pay, the best of acceptable approaches, if given place should remain decent (or if it strives to be on the road to become such)
In opening post here you write...
Eh, how incoherent and in denial of simple facts you can be... (just a recent example: http://www.osnews.com/thread?504199 "thank you for reminding me of why it's bad idea enter into debate with anyone who thinks that "lol" is punctuation")
BTW, this one - in isolation - would make me think you are some kind of comedian (albeit a quite poor / weird one...).
But even on some rare seemingly non-wacky posts - such as this recent one http://www.osnews.com/thread?504259 - you still can't help sounding a bit condescending (while essentially missing the point). Overall, it seems you have a hard time writing a post without overt insults; you are the one fairly reliably not "well-intentioned, well-behaved"; pretentious. And the way you tend to end such drivel with "Peace!" ...seriously, Orwell couldn't make this up.
PS. "Troll" (internet one) comes more from trolling for fishies, BTW, not from some ancient mythologies and religions ...but I can understand your confusion, seeing as you don't really know much about them.

FOXBOROUGH — The Revolution traded midfielder Benny Feilhaber to Sporting Kansas City in exchange for allocation money and Sporting KC's first-round pick in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft and its second-round pick in the 2015 SuperDraft.
Feilhaber, 27, made 52 appearances in two seasons with the Revolution. He scored five goals and added nine assists, including four goals and seven assists in his 23-game 2011 campaign. Prior to joining the Revolution, Feilhaber played six seasons in Europe, including stints with Hamburg (Germany's Bundesliga), Derby County (England's Premier League), and AGF Aarhus (Denmark's SuperLiga).
"We've been working on several options with Benny for a few months and we feel this trade with Kansas City is the most beneficial outcome for the Revs," Revolution general manager Michael Burns said. "This move allows us greater roster flexibility in both 2013 and beyond."

Thanks to Adidas, the prospect who posts the fastest 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine will earn more than just pride.
Darren Rovell of ESPN reported that the company will sign the Combine's fastest runner to a shoe deal. Adidas has been advertising its promotion throughout Indianapolis, where the Combine is taking place.
Thus far, former Texas wide receiver Marquise Goodwin is set for the payday after posting a blazing time of 4.27 seconds in the drill. That's the second fastest time ever, only .03 seconds behind what Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson ran in 2008.
Interestingly, there appears to be a chance that whoever gets the top billing will play for the Oakland Raiders at some point in his career. As Rovell notes, the player who posted the top time in four of the past six Combines has played for the Raiders. Oakland drafted DeMarcus Van Dyke (2011), Jacoby Ford (2010) and Darrius Heyward-Bey (2009) and signed Yamon Figurs (2007) in 2010.
A company spokesperson told Rovell that Adidas hasn't decided on the size of the offer to the top speedster from this year's Combine.
Last year Robert Griffin III posted a time of 4.41 seconds, the fastest by a quarterback. He signed with
Adidas, making him the company's most prominent NFL player. Adidas also has deals with Broncos linebacker Von Miller, Dolphins running back Reggie Bush and Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill. But because the NFL does not have a marketing deal with Adidas, these players are not allowed to wear Adidas gear during games.
Last year's top pick, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck, signed with Nike. Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, the top choice in the 2011 NFL Draft, signed with Under Armour.
Adidas gave Bush a contract for $1 million a year in 2006 when he was entering the NFL. That was a record for an NFL rookie. There haven't been precise figures cited, but published reports state that Griffin's deal with Adidas and Newton's deal with Under Armour have been higher.
If Goodwin maintains the top spot and accepts the offer from Adidas, he will be changing brands. Texas is a Nike school, and Goodwin also wore Nike at the London Olympics where he placed 10th in the long jump. Throw in the fact that the Combine is sponsored by Under Armour, and you get a sense of how competitive this industry is, and why it makes sense for Adidas to make some noise with this offer.

Stone: Special Edition (US - DVD)
Gabe takes a ride with some bikers, until they notice him and beat him up...
After a series of assassinations rocks Sydney Australia's Grave Diggers biker gang, undercover cop Stone joins the group looking for answers. The Grave Diggers don't particularly like Stone, but learn to trust him, and eventually learn the reason for their targeted status.
The downfall of studios like Substance and Discotek, the changes in structure at Anchor Bay, and the availability of most of the big titles all seems to point towards the impending death of cult DVD studios. But the continued success of Blue Underground and Synapse, and the strength relative up and comers like Severin, Dark Sky and Code Red hopefully point to the opposite assumption. It's true that most the big cult horror titles are already available on disc, with beautifully revamped A/V and cool extras, but this can be good news. Instead of yearning for an uncut, anamorphic release of Argento's Phenomena, cult fanatics can move their focus to discovering new movies, movies like Sandy Harbutt's kick-ass biker classic— Stone.
Judging the four titles I was sent last month by Severin studios by their covers, Stone was the least interesting, and was pushed to the back of my review list. Devil Hunter and Bloody Moon were two Video Nasty entries I'd hadn't yet seen, and In the Folds of the Flesh was a notorious rarity, but I'd never heard word one about Stone, and thanks to a lot of biker movie road rash I was hesitant to even bother with the disc. I was very wrong. Stone isn't going to make any all time best lists, and most mainstream critics will likely dismiss the film as a plot thin exercise in basic exploitation, but I see a stylized undercover story with enough grit and gloom to stand up to accepted 'classics' like Infernal Affairs.
They don't make films like this anymore, and even when they did make them, they didn't make them very well. Stone is light on plot, but the plot isn't the point, and had it been any heavier it may've stilted the film' most successful elements. The film is more of a docu-drama than a story driven piece, giving a genuine glimpse into the world of 1970s biker gangs without a lot of obvious filmmaker intervention.
Harbutt co-wrote, produced, and directed the film, and stars as the head of the fictional biker gang. For a relative unknown this particular Renaissance man Harbutt delivers on all levels. As an actor he's almost frighteningly realistic, as a writer he's intelligently minimalist without sacrificing audience participation, and as a director he crafts some indelible images with an itty bitty budget, and gets solid performances out of a bunch of hoodlums. Harbutt's use of camera and sound effects are indubitably dated, but serve as a good example of bygone styles, rather than a joke at their expense. A lack of grace also works in the rough and tumble film's favour, though the tightness of the editing when it really counts is definitely remarkable (often films of this type fail because they don't know when to cut). The film suffers a bit when dealing with a lot of dialogue, but the director has enough tricks up his sleeve to make even the dullest discussion audibly and visually fascinating. In the end Stone would be a great nomination for first year film school viewing, as it is a perfect example of filmmaking by heart with a minimal budget.
Stone comes looking pretty much as expected for a rare cult film out of 1974, but fans should take notice. This marks the only anamorphic widescreen availability of the film, which Severin has framed at the seemingly correct ratio of 1.85:1. The print exhibits plenty of damage, including scratches, flecks of dirt, tracking lines, and a whole lot of grain, but the images are clear and distinct. Colours are bold, if not a bit noisy, and blacks are clean and deep. A large majority of the film has been shot using a softer focus, and a higher diffusion, so details aren't particularly pin-pointed, but I can't say anything especially important has been obscured. Severin hasn't bothered with trying to sharpen the print too much, which is mostly a good thing, as the film can maintain its intended look, and DVD viewers don't have to have their eyes burned out with over-modulation or edge enhancement.
Stone sets itself apart from the cult-biker masses with its more than capable sound mix, which though singularly channelled, is quite dynamic. The credit sequence is filled with the wonderful sounds of a starting a motorcycle, divided by sections of complete silence, then later expressed through more abstract means, like a plucked wire that slowly morphs into a running engine. There's a definite art behind this early sound design, and the art is more or less carried over throughout the rest of the film, which doesn't feature a whole lot of on-set sound, save some of the dialogue pieces. Billy Green's score, which is credited as Rock and Roll, not 'music' or 'score', is a surprising mix of traditional period rock, aggressive electronic and vocal experimentation, and old fashion stings. The two channel mono mix is a little rough in patches, and the heavy bass of music and roaring engines sometimes overwhelms the track, but the small details aren't lost, and the dialogue is clear (or as clear as it can be for non-Aussies).
This surprisingly potent two disc special edition starts with ' Stone Forever', a sixty-minute-plus documentary about the film's cult following, the behind the scene process, and 1998's 25th Anniversary showing that brought out thirty thousand bikers to Sydney. The 25th Anniversary showing started as an attempted recreation of the film's post-title funeral scene, where more than four hundred bikers were hired to ride. One biker died during the recreation. ' Stone Forever' features a lot of footage from the original making-of featurette that also adorns the disc, and a lot of footage from the film, but also features a lot of (at the time) new interview footage. Generally it acts as more of a look back on the film than a look at the anniversary, and is a better making-of doc than the period item, which is mostly an EPK for prospective release. The cast and crew interviews are relatively fascinating, and everyone's good about putting the film in its proper context, which is important for people like me who know nothing about 1970s Australia.
The second disc of the set finishes off with the original 'Making of Stone', which runs a solid twenty-two minutes, and has its place in the collection despite the better doc that precedes it, a series of make-up tests, and a director's slide show, hosted audibly by Harbutt. The first disc features only the original trailer.
I regret the tardiness of this review because apparently this release is pretty hard to find, and my recommendation will likely come too late. Stone is an effective mix of gritty action, retro style, and genuine art. I compare it favourably to other biker classics, even Easy Rider, which lacks the exploitation charms, and even pacing. The story is a little loose, but the performances are solid, and the cinematography and music are largely above average. Severin has done their best with likely less than stellar source material, and included some nice extras as well.

Adopt a dog or cat in search of a forever home
Our Sanctuary in Kanab, Utah, is home to more than 1,600 animals including dogs, cats, horses, burros, birds, rabbits, pigs and more. Most of them are soon ready to go to good homes with permanent or foster families, making way for new arrivals.
We're sometimes able to arrange free transport for select cats and dogs to their new homes, anywhere in the U.S. or Canada. Most of the pets that qualify for these free flights can be adopted without the adopter needing to visit our Sanctuary in Kanab, Utah. However, because some of our animals have special needs (either behavioral or medical), we ask that interested adopters come to the Sanctuary to meet those pets. Email email@example.com for more information.
Help save lives by adopting your next pet from our Sanctuary and check out our adoption specials.

Bailey charged with murder of Hopper
GOSHEN — The Elkhart County Prosecuting Attorney Curtis T. Hill, Jr. has authorized the filing of a formal charge of murder against Luis A. Bailey, 17, of 19751 County Road 18, Elkhart, for the murder of 74-year-old Norma Jean Hopper of 54640 Michael Dr., Elkhart.
The charge has been filed in the Elkhart Circuit Court. Although Bailey is a juvenile, under Indiana law, juvenile jurisdiction does not apply, and Bailey is being charged as an adult.
According to the preliminary investigation report of the Elkhart County Sheriff's Department, the Department was contacted shortly after 3 a.m. Dec. 21 by Norma Hopper who had advised that someone was ringing her door bell at that hour. Patrol officers arrived at approximately 3:30 a.m. did a check and found no one suspicious around the residence. The officers then left the area.
At approximately 10:30 a.m. the public communications center was contacted by Norma Hopper's niece indicating that she had entered the residence of her aunt at the Michael Drive address, and found her to be deceased. She further advised that Hopper's vehicle appeared to be missing.
As the investigation commenced, officers identified Hopper's missing vehicle as a 1998 blue Chevrolet Lumina, and further observed that Hopper appeared to suffer extensive injuries to her face and head while inside the bedroom of her home.
An autopsy was conducted at 10 a.m. Dec. 22 wherein the pathologist made a preliminary determination that the manner of death was homicide, and that the cause of death appeared to be blunt force trauma to the head. During the course of the investigation, deputies learned that Luis Bailey was maintaining a relationship with a woman who lived in close proximity to the Hopper residence. Police further learned that he had been at the nearby residence in the early morning hours Dec. 21. The 1998 Lumina was later located abandoned in the state of Michigan and police continued their investigation leading to the arrest of Bailey after 4:45 p.m. Dec. 23.
The investigation remains ongoing and the office of the prosecuting attorney is awaiting supplemental investigation. However, preliminary reports would indicate that Bailey was the lone assailant.
The Elkhart Circuit Court has scheduled an initial hearing for Thursday, Jan. 3. Bailey remains in custody at the Elkhart County Correctional Facility with no bond.

Glen Canyon-Lake Powell, UT, AZGlen Canyon was once a deep, winding canyon in the middle of an untouched desert plain.

Extending 186 miles, with nearly 2,000 miles of shoreline, Lake Powell has become a top destination for boaters. The blue of the sky and lake is separated by a red ribbon of sandstone cliffs, monoliths, canyons, and even the world's largest natural bridge—Rainbow Bridge!

Mount Rainier National Park, WA

This park sees millions of visitors each year and provides the opportunity to interact with guests from all over the world.
North Cascades National Park, WAStehekin is a remote mountain community that is nestled in a valley at the far end of Lake Chelan. Stehekin, meaning "the way through" to the cascades, can only be accessed by ferry, foot, or sea plane. The 11 mile road in the valley stretches north to the south entrance of North Cascades National Park, the gateway to over 300 glaciers and the most jagged peaks in the Pacific Northwest.

Whether one stays in the valley or ventures to the rugged peaks, this peaceful gem in the mountains will not disappoint in its majestic design and beautiful people.
Olympic National Park, WA
A day in Olympic is like visiting three national parks in one, due to its vastly different ecosystems: ocean beach, alpine mountains, and ancient rainforests.

Shenandoah National Park, VA
One of three parks within the Blue Ridge and Appalachian mountains where ACMNP has a presence, Shenandoah is unique in its incredible sprawling views of the Shenandoah Valley to the west and the Virginia Piedmont to the east. The park's 196,000 acres include 500 miles of hiking trails (with 101 miles of the famous Appalachian Trail) and give visitors the opportunity to explore steep rocky peaks, gentle slopes, grassy forests, meadows of wildflowers, and cascading waterfalls. Things to do in Shenandoah include hiking, backpacking, camping, bird watching, wildlife viewing, star gazing, and fishing.
Grand Teton National Park, WY
The mountains of Wyoming's Teton Range, braided by the twisting Snake River in the Jackson Hole valley, begin innocently at 7,000 ft sagebrush meadows and then suddenly rise to 13,770 ft summits like the Grand. The Tetons are full of towering mountain peaks, alpine cirques, shimmering turquoise glacial-fed lakes and streams, carpets of wildflowers, aspen groves, and rocky canyons. They will take your breath away!
Theodore Roosevelt National Park, ND
Stepping into Theodore Roosevelt National Park and the tiny adjacent town of Medora, North Dakota, is like stepping onto the scene of every western movie you've ever seen.

Whether watching the bison graze across the pasture, standing in awe of the waterfall rushing through the canyon, or witnessing "Old Faithful" first-hand, Yellowstone will never leave you disappointed.
Yosemite National Park, CA
There's a reason Yosemite was naturalist John Muir's favorite park! Within these 1,169 square miles of powerful High Sierra country, you'll be wowed by its sprawling valleys, thundering waterfalls, granite and snow-capped peaks, massive sequoia groves, and meadows of wildflowers. Yosemite, one of the first preserved wilderness parks in America, truly defines the word 'awesome!'

PRApril 23, 2007
Somehow, and I'm just guessing here, but somehow my email address ended up on a centralized mailing list for public relations firms representing the tech industry. All of a sudden I'm getting in the neighbourhood of 2 or 3 press releases directly emailed per day, all from different people at various PR agencies. This started around a week ago.
From what I can tell, these are legit emails from real humans; they're mostly of the product announcement/request for review variety. They're usually promoting software or web sites. They're personalized, and they don't really strike me as overly spammy. But they also don't appear to have any obvious opt-out mechanism.
I'm more curious than annoyed… for now. I'm sure this is just business-as-usual for PR types, though it's going to get old real quick. I've emailed back a few of them to find out if there's a central source. I'll report back here if I get an answer.
I received confirmation that my email address is indeed in a PR database called Cision. I'll try to get my name removed over the next few days, and update again if I manage to accomplish that. Meanwhile, the press releases keep on coming.
a thoughtful reaction from someone in the PR industry who clearly gets it.
There are a number of these lists of contacts that (bad) PR people use to do unsolicited pitches. One of the big ones is Bacon's, which I think is now called "Cision":
Their media page probably has the contact info you'll need to find out if you're listed as press, and how to get your profile changed or removed:
It's annoying, because basically a lot of hack PR people see blogs as just another media outlet, they have a listing in a database somewhere that says, "Dave covers tech on his blog" and then you're being pitched on Enterprise Storage Racks. Also gives actual, talented PR people a bad name.
It's likely that I'm on that same list although I've been getting emails for about a month or two now. Worst of all, none of them include any kind of unsubscribe link. It seems the expectation is that I'll have to reply to the emails and specifically indicate that I want off the list. But getting off the central list will most certainly be preferred.
I noticed the same exact thing, too. I suspect that it has something to do with the fact that I attended the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco last week, because some of the emails I've received are from companies that were there or listed in the programs.
So odd that you all say this. I've gotten 6 in the last week or so. Entirely personalized and not specifically spammy. In 4 cases, they even identified where they got my name (ExpressionEngine and CodeIgniter team) and took the time to track down my personal email listed on my site.
To the first one, I sent a standard "thanks for thinking of me, but I'm not interested", and got a response from (what appeared to be) a real person within about an hour with a polite "ok thanks".
I haven't responded to the others. Wonder what's at work here?
I wonder if it has something to do with these guys (or those like them)…
I found the link at Mike Boyink's blog, thought-provoking post there…
I guess it can be a new-styled spam.
Recently (2-3 months) I'm receiving a lot of e-mails which seem to come from post offices, banks, ministeries and so on. But when I check it (I just look at the real sender) I always discover it's all spam.
I think it's a kind of new spam "vogue".
I'm on something similar as well. My personal address gets a few a week.
Seems many of these PR firms buy lists…. lists are gathered on the web from: blogs, and "industry guru's".
My guess is the more addresses, the more it's worth… so they dig deeper and deeper looking for more relevant links. Your likely on anything web or tech.
Some feel that it's not spam if it's targeted… I'd say if it's unsolicited it's spam.
Check to see if you're in Bacon's. That's the bible of press sources for the PR industry. I have a food site that gets the same treatment.
Of course, I also get free cookbooks out of it, so I'm not complaining too much.
Maybe a PR company decided that bloggers should be considered for press releases too. It wouldn't be a big deal to produce lists of relevant bloggers with name, email, the areas they blog about etc.
Some of the PR systems out there, sends out to tons of recipients based on category/niche, and the emails will appear as sent directly from the company the press release is about. So check if the emails seem to be sent from the same server(s). That might lead you to the source.
When the revolution comes, senseless PR folks will be second against the wall, right after the spammers.
The same guys got me, too, back when they were still called Bacon's MediaMap. I think this was back in 2005. They just added my site and contact information without so much as a by-your-leave.
I found out what had happened when I blasted back at a couple of senders of unsolicited press releases and they said, "Don't blame us; you asked for this". Oh, REALLY? A bit of back and forth revealed that I was listed in Bacon's—which wasn't my idea, of course. I contacted Bacon's and demanded that I be removed. So far as I could tell, they did so, though they protested the whole way that they'd been doing me a favor, that what they'd done was okay, blah blah blah.
I really should dig up those old mails and post about them, if only to warn other bloggers as well those who are considering using the servce and still have some ethics left (a small set, but an important one, I think). Of course, I should probably also check to make sure they haven't re-added me.
Just hope that no one ever signs up your email address to recieve offers and deals from PR companies or other services that send emails daily.
As a PR person (but not one of the bad ones… I hope), I can vouch for it being a confusing time for PR people. They want you to talk about their products, but they're not sure how to get you to do it. Sometimes, there's a great fit (for instance, I would love to get a pitch on a new PR book or service, as long as it came with a review copy), but usually, the bad PR people just want to fire out the shotgun approach. Some blogs are kinda like news outlets, some are like diaries. Most are a middle ground that make it hard to decide. I suppose the default should be "no" unless there's something on the site that indicates that they're open to pitches.
RE Robert's comment, it's not really a matter of buying lists. Every PR firm has a database of media contacts, usually Cision or Vocus. They also include bloggers… because if you have a tech story, you're going to want to pitch TechCrunch. Problem is, nobody contacts the bloggers to find out how best to pitch them, if at all, so the PR people who don't do the research come off like spammers.
Honestly, the best thing to do is write back to the person and tell them that you're not interested in receiving pitches, and ask where they got your contact info. Then, contact that service and ask to be removed. They should both comply. I don't know any PR people who want to be spammers, even if the bad ones come off that way.
I'm surprised that reputable PR companies would not include some sort of unsubscribe mechanism in their e-mails –I thought that was legally *required* by the CAN-SPAM act! (However, I am not a lawyer…)
The PR mails is like spams thats getting smarter every day. I drive some sites with different topics. One of that is about stock quotes, and guess what… since some weeks I get mails concerning stock signals.
In the end it is just spam. But unfortunately it is not filtered by thunderbird or my MTA system.
Just as a note: In Germany you have to provide one-click unsubscribe mechanisms or else you can get sued.
Sorry, I have to correct the above. In Germany you have to give a reason inside the mail why the receiver get's it - and you have to show up the way to unsubscribe. One-Click is currently not necessary.
Anyway, there's no way - also in Germany - to sue unknown senders.

ATHENS - Quarterback Aaron Murray sees no reason why Georgia's offense can't surpass the big numbers it posted last year.
The Bulldogs return all but one starter from a team that set a school record in scoring, won the Southeastern Conference Eastern Division and finished 12-2 to rank fifth in The Associated Press' final poll.
With Georgia's spring game one week away, Murray believes depth at each position will pay dividends as several starters and role players are learning new positions and accepting more responsibility.
"It's pretty smart rotating guys in, seeing who fits with who, especially with the offensive line," Murray said this week. "They always want to get a set guy in there. This is the time you want to experiment."
Murray said he hasn't been too concerned with personnel groupings this spring because he knows coach Mark Richt and offensive coordinator Mike Bobo want him to concentrate on his timing.
"I don't even know half the time who's where - running back, receiver, linemen, tight end," Murray said with a smile. "I just say, 'Hut,' and hopefully I get some protection and somebody ends up in the right place to catch the ball."
Murray's most talented receiver, Malcolm Mitchell, is hardly averse to making big changes before the season starts.
Two summers ago, Mitchell was a true freshman learning the playbook and trying to gain the trust of Murray and Richt. Last spring, Mitchell was learning to play cornerback because Richt had suspended three defensive backs who missed games in the first month.
Mitchell, who had an injured hamstring and couldn't play in the 2012 spring game, played four games on defense before returning to his natural position of receiver before the Sept. 29 win over Tennessee.
Now with the departure of longtime starter Tavarres King, Mitchell has moved again - this time from flanker to split end.
"It's just a lot more field to get open with," Mitchell said. "I'm loving it. It is a lot to get adjusted to. On the boundary, the ball comes a lot quicker. You don't have that much time. The ball's out. But in the field, you have to be patient sometimes for some of your routes and know the quarterback's going to get it to you."
Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall, who comprise one of the nation's top tandems at tailback, are concentrating on pass protection and communication skills to give others a chance to run the ball.
Gurley took just two handoffs in a scrimmage earlier this week, and Marshall hasn't been working a full load in practice since coming back from a slight hamstring injury.
Richt and his staff want to take a longer look at early enrollees J.J. Green and A.J. Turman. Kyle Karempelis is getting extra snaps with the second team as Brandon Harton returns from an undisclosed injury.
Gurley and Marshall last year combined for 2,144 yards rushing and 25 touchdowns, so the Bulldogs know what to expect from the two rising sophomores.
The pair's experience has been a blessing to Murray this spring, particularly when he's running the no-huddle.
"To be able to line up quickly, call a play and go instead of having to make sure everyone knows what they're doing and tell them what to do," Murray said. "That slows it down and lets the defense get set up. It definitely helps. Those guys know what they're doing. They're confident. I trust them when it comes to protection, route running, everything."
Gurley, who said he's added 12 pounds of muscle since Georgia beat Nebraska in the Capital One Bowl, understands his role this spring has expanded beyond the field.
"I'm not a freshman anymore," Gurley said.
The Bulldogs got a boost on Thursday when right tackle John Theus returned to practice for the first time since undergoing offseason foot surgery.
Theus, who started 14 games as a true freshman last season, is one of five returning starters on the line.
"Mainly the big thing today was me just getting back in there and trying to get after it and get back in the swing of things," Theus said. "Football is a game of repetition. The more you do it, the better you get. It's just a matter of me getting back into it after the time off."

Habs try to keep grip on 1st place, extend home streak over Rangers
Looking to pad their lead atop the Northeast Division, the Montreal Canadiens aim to extend a seven-game home winning streak over the New York Rangers as the two clubs meet on Saturday evening.
After losing back-to-back games in regulation for the first time this season, the Canadiens bounced back on Wednesday night with a 6-5 shootout win over the Boston Bruins. Montreal blew a two-goal lead by giving up four straight goals in the second period, but rallied from deficits of 4-2 and 5-3 to force overtime.
Brendan Gallagher got the comeback started with his 10th goal of the season with 7:42 to play in regulation, while Andrei Markov scored a power-play goal with just 8.2 seconds left. Gallagher then scored the only goal of the six- round shootout as Peter Budaj stopped all six skaters faced.
"When you get down two goals twice and come back (with) two goals you show that you have a lot of character as a team," Gallagher said. "It's great to see it."
Budaj made 14 saves in relief of Carey Price, who was pulled after allowing four goals on 26 shots through the first two periods.
Michael Ryder scored twice, P.K. Subban had a goal and Tomas Plekanec added three assists as the Habs moved a point ahead of the Bruins for first place in the division and the second seed in the Eastern Conference. Boston does have a game in hand and visits the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday.
Prior to the consecutive regulation losses, Montreal went 14-1-4 in its previous 19 and that span included a 3-0 home victory over New York on Feb. 23. Price made 17 saves in the shutout to push the Canadiens' home winning streak over the Rangers to seven straight. Montreal is also 9-0-1 in its past 10 at home in this series.
New York has not won in Montreal since a shootout victory on March 17, 2009 and not in regulation since Feb. 3, 2008.
The Habs have outscored the Rangers 6-1 in taking the first two meetings overall this season and have won nine of their last 12 in this series.
New York will try to snap its road slide in Montreal and pick up two big points after a 3-0 loss in Ottawa on Thursday. The Rangers fell into a tie with the New York Islanders for the eighth spot in the East with 35 points, three back of the seventh-place New Jersey Devils.
Henrik Lundqvist did not allow a goal in the Rangers' third loss in four games until yielding a power-play tally with 49 seconds left in the second period. He made 26 saves in all.
New York was coming off a 5-2 win over Philadelphia on Tuesday, but went 0- for-4 on the power play.
"I just don't like our 40 minutes," said Rangers coach John Tortorella on the team's performance in the first two periods. "I'm just a little frustrated with that after playing the way we did in Philly and not generating any offense until the third period."
New York was held to a pair of goals or fewer for the seventh time in the past nine games and is just 2-for-21 on the man advantage over that span.
Montreal's Brandon Prust, who spent the previous two-plus seasons with the Rangers, has missed the past eight games with a shoulder injury but practiced in full on Friday and could return to the lineup tonight.
The feisty winger has logged four goals and nine points in 25 games this season along with a team-high 81 penalty minutes and plus-13 rating.

Dakar (Senegal): A lawyer says more than 1,000 victims of former Chad dictator Hissene Habre have formally asked to participate in his trial on charges of war crimes, crimes against humanity and torture.
Jacqueline Moudeina, who is representing the victims, said at a press conference today that each one had either suffered directly or lost relatives under Habre`s regime. Five victims described abuses including food deprivation, electric shock and being forced to dig graves for hundreds of prisoners who died in detention.
Habre ruled Chad from 1982 to 1990. A Chadian truth commission has blamed his government for more than 40,000 deaths.
After two decades in exile in Senegal, Habre was arrested on June 30. He was formally charged two days later. Lawyers say that his trial could begin next year.
