DuckDuckGo and TOR

TOR uses DuckDuckGo for its search engine.

When I see visits to this blog from DuckDuckGo searches I am a little suspicious.

$300,000US for services from ArcDis - you must be joking! Content, Marketing, Accounting Services, SEO --- I hope that you still have Joshua Shams permission to post those videos.

Content: Public Safety News indeed! You need to be consistent. There is no point in posting random articles that have no relevance to the subject in question at the same time claiming that an unsafe product is being sold. It only goes to making you look more stupid.

As I said before, Morris Brown is not your problem. Do yourself a favour and forget Morris, you are not going to get any money from him and his business is as lame as yours. 

Does this chimney look right?

I think it should have a chimney pot.

Serious Weed killer

I will have to treat the Blackthorn stumps with SBK

The weeds and nettles are starting to grow back in all my good work.

It will soon be time for some fires

I have several piles of Blackthorn cut into lengths for the wood-burning stove.

To think that the space above was impregnable this time last year!

The Bergamot by the side of the pond needs another strim.

Claas Lexion 570+

The digital media features in Windows XP?

This is 2017 - what is Windows XP?

Search me if I can see a reference to the person "embracing" them! If you are going to quote an article that possibly shows you as someone who has benefited the masses I would have thought you could come up with something better.

Why should I, and any other person finding the quote, believe this or any of the other fantasies that you are saying make you look good? I'm sure that the University of Saskatchewan would beg to differ.

A green and pleasant land

I was surprised this morning that there was nothing on the news that today is the anniversary of 9/11

As my act of remembrance I thought that I would post some photos of more pleasant things.

Bringing in the harvest. A view of one of the fields at the bottom of the garden. I believe that is a Class Lexion 570+ you see on the field there. I will be posting more about that later.

Above is the farm where we picked many kilos of plums. Plums that have been turned into Jam for sale in fund raising for the less fortunate of this fine area that we live.

A view looking down the garden. The trees are starting to show their autumnal colours.

We are not sure what created the crater in the above picture. It can only be seen on the map and from the air. You can reach it by footpath but you would not be able to see the perspective.

Sun shining through the trees at the bottom of the garden. This was taken pretty much at ground level but still from my new toy.

Another shot looking down the garden

More fields on the walk into town.

We will have to make the full walk. Maybe not both ways as we always have the option of talking a cab back home. That is one of the many advantages of living where we do. If we were still in North America to live in such a rural location it would cost a fortune to get a taxi back to where you live. You probably would have to book it in advance and explain to the driver how to get there and back. Here it is just a question of jumping in and telling the driver where you want to go.

The pond just down the road

It looks like the Stour, but it is a lake.
.

The pond is on the walk into town. Below is a view of the scenery that you walk through on the way.

When I see multiple domain registrations

.... it is normally an indication that the person making them is up-to no good.

Why else would you register a domain in the name of someone in your organisation? Why would you register a domain in the name of a company or person who you have done business with and possibly had a dispute?

No normal person or company needs more than one website/domain unless they are trying to prevent their competition registering a similar domain and attempt to "cash-in" on their success. If an indivual registers a domain in their own name they are either carrying out business under their own name, i.e. a sole proprietor, to register a domain in your own name for any other reason is pure vanity or an expression of your over-importance. In any case if you find a domain in your own name you are not likely to post content on that website that highlights your faults. If you do find one that is posting such information then you can be pretty sure that it is a "revenge" website.

When choosing a domain name one should be creative and choose one that expresses a theme such as the passage of time.

Woodbridge Tide Mill

These are some shots of the famous mill from an angle that most do not see on their visit.

and, where is Waldo?

 My partners favourite is the one looking over the river Deben estuary.

A fly-past

Following on yesterday's post here is a video version of the photographs.

Cavendish, possibly one of the most photographed "chocolate-box" cottages in the country.

Aa test to see what size of videos that I can easily upload directly from the Mavic SD card. It seems that Blogger has a size limit of 100M file size. I will have to make a few more short videos of local scenes and farming activity.

Cavendish, Suffolk

It is a pity that there was scaffold on the house behind the cottages.

The local pub

Morning Mist

This is a view over the brook from the bottom of the garden

The sun shining through the mist on what looks like another fine day. The cows have not awoken it would seem and all is still quiet. 

Fruits from the hedgerows

Autumn certainly is "a time of plenty". Yesterday,  and over the weekend we have been picking blackberries and damsons from the side of the road and across the fields.

Also a neighbour has a glut of Victoria plums and we have a cache of those as well. Much jam and chutney making has ensued and most of this will be sold in aid of charity. The problem now is that we are fast running out of suitable glass jars and we make have to camp out at the bottle bank to see what we can get from those that are throwing them out in the recycling. 

GWM - Googling While Muslim

I came across this concept while reading "Home Fire" by Kamila Shamsie.

It raises a whole lot of questions regarding data protection and surveillance techniques.

The act of looking up something, using Google or any other of the search engines, could trigger interest in you. The fact that you are also of a particular religious affiliation would also trigger that interest.

While I have no doubt that there are those that may be "on the radar" of the authorities for being associated with a particular group, as far as I know Google has no way of determining your political or religious beliefs. What you are looking for may indicate your leanings but a search in itself cannot correlate these factors.

In the air above the house

This shows the lush vegetation we are surrounded by, the church being one of our closest neighbours.

The shot was taken hovering at about 100 feet at the bottom of the garden, or the field behind. All the trees in front of the house are in the garden and the Blackthorn thicket was under the bottom right of the picture.

A direct visit to my page on Wayne McAlpine

From South Korea.

This must have been in response to my post on the fact that content has been moved from tempsfugit.ca to tempusfugit.me.uk. There was a link to this newish page on that blog post.

It could have been someone playing silly buggers and using TOR to select a random relay server, but I don't think that Wayne McAlpine is that smart.

tempusfugit.ca is now tempusfugit.me.uk

You may have noticed that requests to tempusfugit.ca are now telling you that the "requested URL is not found on the server". This is because all the content has been migrated to my UK server.
