• It’s snowing here! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr......
   
• I have a strong feeling that tjforex.com is a scam.  I received two e-mails, from what appears to be two different folks, but they are identical, and signed by Alice.  They say that I was skeptical of this one, that I am wrong, and that he or she is earning $200 a day. Aha. Sure.  Whatever. I’d stay away.
   
• 12by12Daily Update from David:
  
  “This is a long update, but the issues are important, so please take the time to read it thoroughly.
  
  Hi everybody,
  
  Are we all enjoying our super smooth surfing? Our long awaited server upgrade took place earlier this week, and apart from a few little bugs, everything seems to be working fine. I know you have all been frustrated with the slow surfing, but you can only imagine the frustration from my end. Everything we do relies on the server, from payouts, to receiving and answering emails, to ref commissions, to database updates, so you can probably understand how frustrated I have been and why things have not been happening as soon as they should. Basically the server was only able to cope for about half of each day, which meant that we have only been able to cope with half our workload. Daily payouts are and always have been my number one priority, so I apologise if some of the other things have not been happening. I am happy to report, however that despite all the problems, we have managed to keep our 100% on time payout record intact.
  
  The Issues.
  
  Referral Commission. As mentioned in the previous update we are working our way through referral commissions in order of member number. When we get to the end of the list, we start again. We are currently in the 4 thousands, and things should start to flow a lot quicker now, with the new server. If your member number is less than 4000, and you have not been paid your referral commissions, there are 2 probable reasons for this. Firstly, you may not have earnt any at the time I processed your number, or secondly you were a free member when I processed your number. If you fall into those categories, you will be paid on the next cycle. As mentioned in the previous update, I am unable to give an accurate timeframe for payment of referral commissions, but I now estimate that each cycle should take approximately one month.
  
  Incorrect or Negative Cash Balance. As mentioned previously, if you have an incorrect or negative cash balance, there is no need to worry, and definitely no need to email us. You will always be paid for the full 12 days on each upgrade regardless of what your cash balance says. This does not mean that you don't have to surf however, as there is a mechanism in the surfing which triggers the expiry of your upgrade.
  
  Free Members Requesting Cashout. I have to bring this up in every update, but I still get free members emailing me asking about their payout. When you joined, you ticked a box to say that you have read and understood the terms of 12by12daily, and the terms clearly state Only advertisers who hold current Ad Packs will be permitted to cashout. and the FAQ carries the same information in at least 3 places. The only exception to this rule is if you have 2 expired upgrades, and that was covered in the previous update. For those of you who may not have seen it, I will reprint it here.
  Free Member with Two Pending Cashouts? We have a bit of a problem with members whose 2nd upgrade expires while waiting to be paid for their first one. What happens in this case is that your account reverts to free, and your payout disappears off the list. I had promised to pay the first cashout in this instance, and will honour this promise. However sometimes it is difficult to find them, once they have disappeared from the list. If you are in this situation, you can email us, and we will fix. Bear in mind that it may take a couple of days for us to see your email. The quickest way is to make another upgrade, (You will need to anyway to get your 2nd cashout). As soon as you do this your payout will reappear on the payout list, and jump to the head of the queue. Some members who have done this have been paid in minutes, but the most you should have to wait is 24 hours. (The 24 hours only applies to payouts that are already overdue. If they are not overdue they will reappear on the list in their rightful place in the queue)
  
  Contact Requests. Unhappily, since my last update, the number of unnecessary email has once again increased. Most of these refer to the 3 issues mentioned above. I get really annoyed, when I have to take an hour or two out of my busy schedule to write these updates, and it appears only a minority of members actually read them. After we mail these emails out we also post them on your members page, with the note, WE WILL NOT RESPOND TO ANY EMAILS THAT ARE ANSWERED IN THIS UPDATE. Also before you send us a contact request, there is a big red STOP!! and a list of subjects not to email us about. Guess what is on that list? Yep, the same 3 subjects listed above, and people still email us with questions on these subjects. If you have emailed me about any of these subjects I have probably deleted it. Apart from the fact that it is an unnecessary drain on our resources, it is also totally unfair to the members who have genuine problems that need to be attended to. On a happier note, I have been able to catch up with a lot of the emails since the server upgrade, and response times should continue to improve.
  
  Egold. When you joined 12by12daily you had the option of entering your egold accoun number in your payout details. If you have entered this incorrectly we will not be responsible for any payments that go astray. Please make sure that the egold number in your account is exactly the same as the one you upgraded with.
  
  Egold 2. Too many members are having their egold accounts compromised and/or having funds stolen from their accounts. The number of members in this situation is not high, but lets face it, 1 is too many. Pleeeeaase, pleeeaaase, protect your e-gold, and protect your pc. The most common ways for money to be stolen from your egold account are for you to give your login details to somebody. You may not even know that you have done this, but the most common way this happens is for the hacker to access your email account first. Yahoo accounts seem to be particularly vulnerable to this. The second most common way is a trojan called goldun. is downloaded onto your pc. Most antivirus programs will not pick up this trojan. I use and recommend ewido which you can download for free at ewido.com This, and I believe Kaspersky are the only antivirus programs that will pick up and remove this trojan. I recommend you also visit the forum for a wealth of valuable information on how to keep your egold safe. We have a whole section there devoted entirely to egold issues.
  
  Forum. We announced in the last update that the forum is now up and running. We currently have about 2000 forum members which is great, but I would suggest that you should all join up and have a look around. Even if you are not a forum person, many questions that you may have will be answered in there. There is a great community spirit in the forum, and we are now getting people from all over the world joining in. We already have little communities springing up from many different countries, and members can post in their own language. We will be moving all these communities to their own section over the weekend.
  
  Free Upgrades. There is some clown doing the rounds of various chat rooms sprouting that he has software for sale that will allow you to make free upgrades of any amount you wish in autosurf programs. Don't buy it, it does not work on 12by12daily. His asking price is $300, and I would suggest you would be better off buying upgrades with your $300 rather than giving it to him. I might also mention that if he can make upgrades of up to $6k on 12by12daily, and $10k on some other sites, why would he sell it for $300? For the record I catch about 3 of these crooks nearly every day.
  
  Thank You for taking the time to read this. 12by12daily continues to grow, and things are looking really bright for the future.
  
  Happy surfing

• I received one comment about my post re: GAP and its demise. I don’t like bringing bad news to you. Especially if the programme is run by such an honest Admin as Trish. But I saw the signs of trouble when she put in that 45% rule.  The reason? Because GAP was already in trouble.  That rule only prolonged the death throes.  And Trish’s recent admittal that GAP was hacked... well, that sealed it. I don’t see a way that GAP can recover.  So that’s why I had to post it.  Because if you put in more money right now, it’s money that will be lost. Unless I see some evidence to counter this conclusion, I will keep that, and this post in my BLOG.  It’s NOT easy to announce this! Because I do know that bloggers can indeed influence the outcome of a programme!  But in this case it was dying already for a number of weeks. So my publishing this is not going to kill the programme, because the programme is pretty well dead.  And please do not send me any angry e-mails over this as am not the cause of it’s death.  It’s been happening for weeks now. I have around 1K in there in two pendings... so I’d rather not even post what am posting.  You see?
  
  Here is a response to one of my readers about this:
  
  “Hey xxx, am just like you.
  
  Panic is senseless and I've railed about it before.
  
  As you can see, am not one of those bloggers that encourages hit and runs.
  
  But you know?  Many Admins use that as an excuse to run! There are very few
  honest Admins, and Trish is one of them. I've actually held off for quite a
  while saying anything negative about GAP.  But all the signs are there now,
  especially from the Admin herself.
  
  So this one ... I posted with a very heavy heart!  That's why the Ah shit..
  which I just took out to soften it.
  
  So am with you xxx.  And I also see that this one will help you to lose
  money.... There is a point to which you come when you can see that you
  should not put any more in... else you will lose.  So this is not a case of
  hit and run... as this one has been around nearly 3 months now.  It's one
  of the better ones, but... it's not going to survive. (just from the signs)
  ” - js And in no way am I trying to shut this programme down! Just go over my review of GAP and my posts in the BLOG.  And I think the best thing Trish could do right now is to shut it down! Else she’s trading in old losers for new!  Right Trish? Hope you’re reading this.  Again, the right thing to do is to shut it down.  Unless you see a ray of hope, and I mean a very certain ray. Else you will simply be signing up folks who will lose their money as they have no hope of getting paid.
   
• If it’s too good to be true? Then it’s not true!  Witness:
  
  dd opentrade.net
  
  Read this: "You probably ask yourself: can there be any trade involving no risk? We make a unique offer: regardless of the trading results we guarantee you a minimal daily income of 0.5% provided by the ever-growing reserve fund."
  
  Reserve fund?  Ever growing? That says it clearly: this is a ponzi. And if they DO trade, then a partial ponzi.
  
  This one looks like Prime-Fund of old. I guess there is nothing wrong with that, IF YOU KNOW THE TRUTH!
  
  Now read this load of crap:
  
  "Our trading system is original; it's the result of the joint work of our team and the specialists from several research institutes for many years. This is a software and equipment platform based on the genetic algorithm. The trades are performed without any 'live' operator involved and that's why you are insured from the human psychology mistakes. The self-educating system based on the database of trading during many years using the sophisticated algorithms, can take decisions to close or open any of the positions. The operator just enters the modifications based on financial news and reports analysis."
  
  Let me say (and you do?  OK Bob!, ugh, those Kwik Kopy guys are in my head! excellent commercials) that if someone came up with a software solution, using AI or whatever you care to choose, like Expert Systems, which am very familiar with, having been a programmer for many years, then someone from Wall Street would have tracked these guys down, given them a few million, and the originators of this would be on the beach right now ogling nice bodies!  Not trying to get your ten bucks! You see?
  
  Good!
  
  No further DD need be done on this one.

• A personal note to any Admin who is thinking of launching a site similar to EverlastingNine: I don’t care if it is a 9% site or a 12% site or a 14% site or any kind of over 10% site! Or even less!  I will advise folks NOT to join you!  This everlasting blood sausage is kaka. By withdrawing before the x number of days have passed you lose your outstanding amount is nonsense and yellow water! If you hope to succeed in running a good HYIP you must allow folks to w/d every few days so they can at least recover their principal, or get close to it! NO ONE is going to trust you if you say that they will lose their remaining principal if they withdraw early! Tysin of EverlastingNine has poisoned that concept. Well done indeed!
   
• You know, this is Friday the infamous thirteen!  I have always wondered about why the number 13 was considered to be a bad luck number.  I have heard various theories.  But the one that I feel right about the most? The one that says that Friday the 13th is a bad day because that's when a ruler in France rounded up the Knights Templar, or most of them, and had them arrested, and killed. And just a few minutes ago I got the below post! On time!  And so I quote:
  
  I recently checked out a book from the library called "Off the Road: A Modern-Day Walk Down the Pilgrim’s Route Into Spain"(copyright 1994, published by Simon & Schuster, ISBN 0-671-75818-7). The author, Jack Hitt, decided to side-step an anticipated mid-life crisis by abandoning his safe comfortable American life to follow the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, Spain, the putative final resting place of Saint James the Apostle. Lasting two months or more, depending on the starting place, the walk traditionally winds up just before St. James’ feast day, July 25. Along the route of "Europe’s oldest form of packaged tour," he encountered a varied cast of characters, and a host of legends. One in particular caught my eye:
  
  "The king of France at the turn of the fourteenth century was known as an uncommonly handsome man. He was called Philip le Bel, the Beautiful, an ironic epithet for a king of Gothic pitilessness. Because of the French king's constant financial problems, relations between Paris and Rome had degenerated into a ludicrous state. The Beautiful had exhausted all the usual mediaeval methods for balancing the books. He had stolen property, he had arrested all the Jews, he had devalued his currency. As a last resort, he tried to tax the church.
  Pope Boniface VIII was a fat and dissolute pontiff. One contemporary described him as "nothing but eyes and tongue in a wholly putrefying body . . . a devil." The Beautiful himself openly referred to him as, "Your Fatuity." But Boniface knew the rules of the game as well.
  In retaliation for France's new fiscal arrangements, the pope issued a dictum forbidding the taxation of the clergy.
  So the Beautiful closed French borders to the exportation of gold bullion, cutting off Rome's transalpine money supply. To rub it in, he arrested the bishop of Pamiers and charged him with blasphemy, sorcery, and fornication.
  So the pope issued a bull condemning the arrest and revoked some of the Beautiful’s papal privileges.
         The Beautiful burned his copy of the bull in public.
         The pope delivered a stinging sermon filled with ominous
  
  warnings that the church was a creature with one head, not a monster with two.
  The Beautiful issued charges, in absentia, against the pope himself, alleging blasphemy, sorcery, and sodomy.
  The pope excommunicated the Beautiful. He compared the French to dogs and hinted that they lacked souls. His nuncios leaked a rumor that the pontiff might well excommunicate the entire country.
  The peasants were stirred by such threats and the Beautiful quickly grasped that revolution was a better future to them than excommunication. So he acted fast, dispatching an army to Anagni, where the pope was staying. He placed the eighty-six-year-old pontiff under house arrest. The locals managed to save him, but a month later Boniface passed away. Some allege he succumbed to shock at the outrage; other sources say that he beat his head against a wall until he died.
  After a pliable pope assumed office, the Beautiful returned to his economic problems. His wife died in 1305, and since he no longer would have to kiss a woman's lips, he applied for membership in the Knights Templar. The permanent knights of the Paris Temple may have suspected that his intentions were less than pious and did something almost unspeakable: they blackballed the king.
  The following year, the grand master of the Knights Templar, Jacques de Molay, returned to Europe from the Mediterranean in a show of luxury. He was accompanied by sixty knights and a baggage train of mules laden with gold and jewels. Around that time the Beautiful was more desperate than ever to solve his messy state finances: he tripled the price of everything in France overnight. Open rebellion broke out in the streets. Rioters threatened to kill him. He fled to the Parisian temple and begged the knights for protection. It was all too humiliating.
  So in the fall of 1307, the Beautiful arranged a state action impressive even in these days of data highways and rapid deployment teams. On September 14 he mass-mailed a set of sealed orders to every bailiff, seneschal, deputy and officer in his kingdom. The functionaries were forbidden under penalty of death to open the papers before Thursday night. October 12.
  The following Friday morning, alert to their secret instructions, armies of officials slipped out of their barracks. By sundown nearly all the Knights Templar throughout France were in jails. One estimate puts the arrests at two thousand, another as high as five thousand. Only twenty escaped. The initial charges were vague, but they didn't sound good: "A bitter thing, a lamentable thing, a thing horrible to think of and terrible to hear, a detestable crime, an execrable evil, an abominable act, a repulsive disgrace, a thing almost inhuman, indeed alien to all humanity, has, thanks to the reports of several trustworthy persons, reached our ear, smiting us grievously and causing us to tremble with the utmost horror." What followed was so foul, according to folklore, that Templar sympathizers cursed the day itself, condemning it as evil--Friday the thirteenth--whose reputation never recovered."
  I had never heard this derivation for the bad reputation enjoyed by Friday the thirteenth, so I went looking for corroboration or denial. I checked the AFU FAQ and found no mention of any basis for the bad-luck notoriety. I found a listing on-line, in the Time-Warner publishing area, that pushes the New-Testament explanation, i.e., by placing the blame on events surrounding the death of Christ:
  
  NARROW HOUSES
  Copyright:1994 Douglas E. Winter.
  
  "Of all superstitions, perhaps the most pervasive -- and yet least explicable -- is the aversion to the number thirteen. Many buildings (particularly hotels) tall enough to have a thirteenth floor will not number it as such. We are told that the registration of Princess Margaret's birth was delayed so that she would not be entered as number thirteen. So firm is its grip upon us that even hospitals, those supposed bastions of rational thought, decline to label their operating theaters with the number.
  What is it about the 'devil's dozen' that poses such evil portent? The answer, as with so many superstitions, is biblical. Thirteen gathered in the upper room on the night of the Last Supper. 'And in the evening he cometh with the twelve. And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.' (Mark 14: 17-18). 'Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? He spake of Judas Iscariot . . for he it was that should betray him.' (John 6: 70-71).
  As for Friday the 13th: a lamentable intersection of unlucky number and dire day. 'And on a Friday fil al this meschaunce,' wrote Chaucer in 'The Nun's Priest's Tale'. The superstitions surrounding this fateful day -- particularly Good Fridays -- are numerous: a child born on Friday is doomed to misfortune; do not feed anyone butter churned or eggs laid that day. Courting, and especially marriage, on Friday is a folly. Do not move to a new home or new job on that fateful day; do not rise from an illness; and please, please do not take a journey -- for as the fishermen say, 'A Friday's sail, always fail."
  This had more meat to it, more background--but was it still too neat? Well, this one appeared to back Winter up:
  
  MAGIC AND SUPERSTITION
  
  copyright 1968 Douglas Hill
  
  Published 1968 by the Hamlyn Publishing Group
  
  "Thirteen is especially unlucky terms of dinner parties, referring back to the Last Supper or the Norse feast: it is believed that one of the thirteen diners will die within a year. But the fear exists in every occurrence of the number. Throughout the western world people can still be found numbering their houses '12 1/2,' to avoid living in number 13. The state lotteries of France, Italy, and elsewhere never sell tickets with that number. Hotels and hospitals, and similar institutions, often have no room numbered thirteen; and many big hotels, like the new Cavendish Hotel completed in London in 1966, also have no thirteenth floor. Fear is also aroused if the thirteenth of the month falls on a Friday--in itself a notoriously unlucky day, largely by association with Good Friday."
  Last Supper, Good Friday...yup, got all the elements. But what’s this about a Norse feast? Is that pre-Christian? Better look some more. Hmmmm, what’s this, then:
  EVERY MAN'S BOOK OF SUPERSTITIONS

  "When making beds, mattress should never be turned on a Friday or a Sunday. Sunday is taboo, of course, because of the biblical prohibition working on the Sabbath--the Jewish Sabbath being transferred to the first day of the week in Christian practice and Friday because of the general bad luck attributed to it. Many people consider that this attribute of Friday is due its being the day of the Crucifixion, but the belief in its ill luck probably goes much farther back in history and m have something to do with the sacrifices offered to the goddess Friga in Norse mythology.
  And there is still an uneasy feeling among both seamen and passengers when a voyage begins on a Friday. If the Friday happens also to be the thirteenth day of the month apprehension is doubly strong.
  Perhaps the best known of meal-time dangers is the belief that it is unlucky to sit down thirteen to table. So widespread is this superstition that most hostesses will go far out of their way to avoid such a catastrophe. Should any invited guest unexpectedly fall out leaving only thirteen for the meal, almost anyone will be dragged in to fill the vacant chair. The old belief is that the first person to rise from the table will die within a year. Slight protection against this fate is supposed by some to be afforded if all the company rise together. Nevertheless it is safer to avoid the unlucky number if possible. Usually the host or hostess will try to arrange matters so that neither a person falling out nor an unexpected guest will leave thirteen. It is thought that this superstition may have had its origin in the Gospel story of the Last Supper in the events which followed the Passover meal partaken of by the twelve disciples and their Master. Judas, who rose first from the table, was the first to die as recounted in the New Testament It is probable, however, that it goes back farther in time than that, for divination by numbers played a large part in ancient religions."
  So here we have Norse Mythology again being used to link the bad character of Friday to a much earlier time than the previous references. Well, there was only one other book in the library that might be of use in the research project. Of course, it was terribly old, and written in such a fey voice! But never mind--I can make one last attempt to pin down the Norse reference:
  POPULAR SUPERSTITIONS
  
  Copyright: Charles Platt 1925
  
  Republished by Gale Research Company, Book Tower, Detroit, 1973
  
  "The rise of the compound Three-Ten for Thirteen is so very general all over the world, that it seems clear that to the primitive mind of early Man it had no real meaning--he stopped at Twelve. So persistent are these old instincts that, even today, we stop at "Twelve Times Twelve "in our school multiplication triplication tables, though there is absolutely no reason whatever why we should do so, except for our inherited instinct that it was, and therefore still must be, the utmost limit of mathematical thought.
  Thirteen, therefore was not used as number, but as a vague word meaning anything beyond Twelve. To the untutored savage, as to the animal mind of today, anything unknown conveyed an immediate sense of danger. Thirteen was not really an unlucky number, but a fateful one--a number full of vague and unimaginable possibilities and therefore a number to be avoided by any peace-loving man.
  This curious point is amply proved by the many superstitions that cluster round this number, for they are all based upon the number itself. In the majority of hotels, for instance, there is no room bearing this number, and the visitor who sleeps in the thirteenth room slumbers quite peacefully because it bears the number 14 on the door. The ill-luck, you see, is not attached to the room, but to the number, which carried to the savage mind such dreaded fear of the Unknown. Possibly that may have been a million years ago, but the fateful character still clings to the number.
  Many people believe that the superstition about sitting thirteen at table dates from the Last Supper and the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. That is not possible, for the idea goes back centuries earlier: but it does seem clear that this world fatality gave the idea new life and sent it bounding forward along the years to come. As a matter of fact, this was not an isolated case of at thirteen at table, for Christ and the chosen disciples worked together regularly every day, and must, surely, have risked the fateful thirteen many thousands of times.
  In Scotland, Thirteen is known as the "Devil's Dozen"--a title characteristic of the worst associations of this much abused number. I have already made reference to the question of Thirteen sitting at table together. But the Romans considered that the fatality followed the number whenever and for whatever purpose thirteen people gathered together.
  The Fish was an emblem of Freyja, and as such was associated with the worship of Love. It was offered by the Scandinavians to their goddess, on the sixth day of the week, i.e., Friday. I have already pointed out that many primitive customs were "adopted" by the early Christians, in order to make life easier for their converts--this was a case in point. Fish has been accepted by Catholics as the correct diet on their sixth day fast.
  Unfortunately this worship of Love on the Friday of each week gradually developed--or degenerated--into a series of filthy and indecent rites and practices.
  Here then we have the obvious clue to the Day's bad name--no decent man would be associated with such practices! Friday started its career as a good day, almost a sacred day--and in many countries it is still the day of all days for lovers. Then love degenerated into lust, and now the day is universally shunned!
  This trick of attributing to poor old Friday all the disasters that have ever befallen Mankind is a very general one--in addition to Eve's "indiscretion," as I may call it, Friday is popularly, but not historically, supposed to have seen the murder of Abel, the stoning of Stephen, the Crucifixion, the Massacre of the Innocents by Herod, the flight of the children of Israel through the Red Sea, the Deluge (of course !), the Confusion of Tongues at the Tower of Babel and many others, right up to William Tell and the other Apple!
  Give a poor dog a bad name, and you might as well hang it!"
  Wow! Thirteen has been ‘fateful’ as long as there have been numbers, and Friday has been disastrous since ‘Eve.’ I think Mr. Hitt may have been misled by Spanish conspiracy theorists, anxious to give more importance to the Knights Templar, their attackers, and their defenders. And guess which group succeeded the KsT?
  So that’s what I found out about the background of Friday the thirteenth. My sources weren’t impeccable, but they were the only ones available to me. I’m sure there are many other sources with other derivations. Who’s got another version? Which one’s right? Who knows?
  Thank you for your support."

• This one looks like a scam: http://gdrfund.com The daily ROI at 9% is way too high for an HYIP or some kind of money fund.  If it was lower than 2% then perhaps I’d study it more. GoldCoders script. I would not participate.
   
• I’ve cycled 4 times now in DollarMagic!  Took out my init deposit and put back the profits.  Oh and I did take some profit as well.  It’s still at a 3 day cycle time. How long will this last? Unknown! But I’d say it’s good for another four cycles and we should start to see the cycle time move up to 4 or 5 days.
   
• Those of you asking about BringYourBuddy and Derek... well he’s been busy with his third company that he found and has not even sent out a letter on that one, only to a few folks. So am sure he’ll get on the ByB letter quite soon. In the meantime go out and bring in our five buddies.
   
• StormPay just announced a change in fee structure. From now on you can send money and only be charged $1 max! No matter how much you send/receive! Must be because all that is being offset by the twelve grand they kept of my money and more from others!
   
• Well, I guess the positive news is that if GAP is going down, the folks that are into that one will flock to the only three or four programmes out there that are surviving:
  
  1. 12by12Daily (use the Reviews button up top to read my review and then sign up or not).
  2. DesertSkyMarketing (ditto)
  3. CommandSurf (ditto)
  4. Xlentopps.net (ditto)
  
  Am sure there may be a few others that have been around a long time. I’ve not listed the recent ones as they have not yet proven themselves (longevity).
   
• I think I will have to list DollarMonster soon on my Reviews page, because it refuses to die. I don’t normally list cyclers on the Reviews page. Because most of them die within a few days!  Not weeks or months!  So... perhaps tomorrow I will list it.
   
• Imagine that you are standing in front of a store that sells electronics.  In the window you see a display of about, oh, 5 TV’s wide, 5 TV’s tall, adding up to 25 TV’s in total. On each TV a different channel/movie is playing. Each movie is in a different time and place. But what you start to recognize is that it is YOU who are the main actor in each of the movies!  And you suddenly have a Deja Vu experience! You’ve been there, you’ve done that! You see, it’s not the case that you have been others in multiple lives, times, and places, it is that it is all happening right NOW, at the same time! Those are not past lives.  Those are current lives, and so who are you?  You are the Witness!  The Observer!  The ONE who has never left Heaven.  You are merely, for some odd reason, entertaining, witnessing, multiple scenarios/lives of being separate from .... well, I will let you fill that in.  Even right now... your apparent and separate life is just a movie on one of those screens. But it’s not real! It’s just another dream that you are having! And it is time to wake up! That’s why you’re reading this.  I am one of the voices that is telling you, whispering you, to wake up... without alarming you.  Just ponder that!
  
  OK, then.  Let’s get back to money matters!
   
• jp-daily.com daily return today was 3.21%  Very nice!
   
• OPFM... still having trouble loading that matrix.  From what I can see... well, see my last post in yesterday’s BLOG.
   
• "Mike Ward Here-
  
  While I was chatting with Diana in the UK last night about out of the box ways to build ones SU business one of my partners sent me an I’m about the news -You Tube was bought for 2.2 billion by Google(that's 2,200 million dollar bills) The owners of You Tube are 29 and 27. This is an excellent example of some guys that thought Extremely Huge and now are being rewarded Extremely Huge. How are you thinking?  How are you planning? How are you challenging yourself?  How are you changing your mindset from mediocrity to visionary?
  
  I believe that if you have a cause, a true purpose, and you believe 100% in your mind that you have it you can obtain it with taking massive action!
  
  Let’s take a look at SU and let’s imagine that Matt Morris came to you and he said I have a great vision to literally empower each person on the face of the planet with the teachings of the best authors and speakers in the world. By spreading this vision, people will find the treasures in themselves to do great things:  Rebuild family relationships, create the mindset to create health habits that will ultimately extend their life 10, 20 maybe 30 more years, build the confidence to create a joint venture with a millionaire which leads to the next You Tube, etc. The Success of Thousands rides on our shoulders.  I need you to take the position of Master Distributor (the very first person in SU.)  This means that you have no upline, you are the upline, and the world is relying on you. You must become creative and you must act fast. How are you going to take on this challenge? Are you going to let this opportunity pass you by to create the financial future you have been dreaming of are you going to listen to negative people while the children of the world are counting on you to deliver this information to them?
  
  This is the mind set you need to have to take yourself to the next level.  You must get out of your comfort zone. Let me repeat that “You Must Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone!!” You can make 6 figures, 7 figures, or even 8 figures; it’s up to you how big you really want to dream.  If you receive some help along the way then consider that gravy but you have to create the mash potatoes for the gravy to go on! Its time to take responsibility, if its going to be, it’s up to me, and I’m cool with that!"
  
  Well?  My take on that? Sure.  This world is run by a super-ego. The ego has arranged the Universe so that you feel that you will be unhappy unless you succeed in it's system!  And that's the money, fame, game, fortune, ego system. So sure. Go ahead if that's what you really want.
  
  The above post was from a SuccessUniversity big guy. My comments were from me.
  
  Am not sure where you are at in terms of your awakening from this crap world, but I thought I'd let you know.  Just in case there was something there that you could relate to and respond to.
  
  Well, while you try and build an empire for yourself?  Just consider what am saying. Then go straight to A Course in Miracles and learn what's really is going on! http://acim.org

• Ok, The Secret, am going to watch that video right now! What a disappointment!

Oct. 11th (Wednesday)

• All’s well, but.... I can’t reply to e-mails right now as my ISP is having smtp and POP3 issues (not on my end). I will be able to in a couple of hours. Right now am out to lunch!
   
• The weather here is unpredictable and we’ve had 3 blackouts right now, but I managed to surf 12by12daily.... So am not sure how much I work I will get done here today.
   
• Ah shit! Guess I was right about this in my earlier posts.  I suspected something and here is what it is! I do not post this with joy but with ... forgiveness. I right now don't know if I made a profit or not.  Oh well, and it seems that GAP is almost gone!  I hope this does NOT reflect on any other endeavors that she has been in!
  
  “peeps. Also, have a look at this - actually, I got a couple of such uplifting emails today and I say THANK YOU to the authors:
  
  Somebody said it couldn\'t be done, as he with a chuckle replied... That maybe it couldn\'t..but he would be one, who wouldn\'t say so till he tried! So, he bulkled right in, with a trace of a grin (on his face if he hid it..who knew it?) And he started to sing..as he tackled the thing.. that couldn\'t be done.. AND HE DID IT! [DUH? What is this?]
  
  Previously...
  
  WOW... I'm not even sure I am able to express how I felt seeing members post in a couple of forums with their words of support and willingness to donate funds to help recover the hacked ones...it really cost me a great deal to make that post mentioning the hack, but I really did not want anyone (especially Misty!) to think wrong about me. I truly am trying my best here, and, like it or not, am a litle proud of myself that I managed SDU for almost 14 months now and GAP for around 3 - even though it's been a bumpy road more often than not. I don't know about others, but it is really not easy to sleep somebody out there is waiting for a payment - fact is, as I have written in previous updates, there is still a long road to catching up all older payments. Even if wanted to pull more of my personal funds, I can't ... there are none left and whatever comes in the meantime, goes straight to the GAP account for payouts. (David B. iffered $100 to be deducted from his account for me to go out or treat myself to something - such a big heart, David - but how could I possibly?).
  
  I am trying to be as fair and square with payouts as possible (and NO, I do not pick some members over others! like some are trying to suggest) - I basically try to do what is most efficient timewise as well as for creating new cash so it may be used for generating recovery funds for what was lost and hopefully help me rebuilt the reserves. With one exception...occassionally, if a member has just received a payment, considering there are many others waiting with 2 or more pendings, I will rather send a payment to another person, instead of 2 payments to the same person. And it hurts me too. There is nothing more that I am willing to see again than a payout list where there is only one pending for each person!
  
  Back to your offers of donating to a recovery fund - I spent 2 days thinking about it and, as much as I appreciate your good will (I do!), I'd rather avoid going in that direction right now - it is heavy as it is to carry the financial burden for so many people. Instead, what I am hoping I am seeing in the correct way, there is a slight increase again in new signups and re-purchases - so, if you are able to re-purchase more often, it will have same effect as donating to a fund, as it ill place more funds that can be put to work again. I have places where I have a very good record of generating extra funds and no funds to put in there.
  Please, try not emailing me about payments you have not received, please - try to look instead at the ones you HAVE received...
  
  I realise this is getting far too long for this message section, but just wanted to let you know I am here and still trying to not give up
  take care
  Trish
  
  Well, it seems that GAP may not survive. But I hope it does.

• If you’re going to play in the above cycler, let me tell you this: get out after the first two cycles at most! Don’t be greedy else you will end up losing.
   
• DollarMonster cycler is still at a 3 day cycle time!  This is unheard of and am getting a bit concerned!  The only way they can maintain a three day cycle time is if LOTS of folks are coming in and depositing! And I mean lots! I mean unprecedented!   So am not sure as to what to say. Certainly I’ve been seeing many folks advertise this one all over the place. So this could explain it.  I would be cautious if I were you and take out your init spend within the first two cycles!  Then you don’t need to worry! Take some profit, put some back in, and so on. That’s what I’ve done. Am in profit after two cycles!
   
• I managed to get a $124 payment out before EverlastingNine shut down!  That’s a $24 profit!  Whew! Well, am not going to call the guy any names. Not because I did not lose... but... losing is part of the game, and... you, perhaps, would have done the same if you were in his shoes. And you know what? You don’t know it yet, but you are!  There is no one else here! There is no separation.  None. Quantum Physics even, is starting to show that this is true. Of course this will go over the heads of some, but some will clue in and get an aha!  Which is OK as well.  Am not judging anyone.  By the way, do you know why you get tired during the day and need to sleep at night?  It’s because a day of constant judging is very tiring on your energy. Try to live by the following three rules:
  
  1. No judgment.
  2. No comparison.
  3. Delete the need to know (the search is what causes you to NOT notice who you truly are or your own True Nature)
   
• High Blood Pressure (hypertension), high cholesterol, obesity, osteoporosis, even MS and more: Folks? You MUST order this book from Amazon.com or wherever you buy your books and get this book: “Your Body’s Many Cries For Water”. An MD wrote it, so you can safely hand it to your Doctor and expect that he or she will possibly read it! 
  
  One of my readers, Lydia, sent me the book and am astounded! Most of your illnesses, as labeled by MDs are actually due to dehydration! That is, not enough water in your system!  As well, the myth that salt raises your blood pressure is exposed! I know! 
  
  My mother died because of all the diuretics prescribed by so-called expert Doctors!  I now truly understand how and why my mother died!  So don’t let the demise of your family and friends be due to ill-advised medications from so called Doctors!  Read this book! Many MDs now fear what is being revealed in this book due to possible litigation! 
  
  The book is by F. Batmanghelidj, M.D.  Get it now! I won’t profit from this in any way! Am just so serious, because I have some of the symptoms.... And most Medicines simply treat the symptoms and not the underlying cause! And this book reveals the underlying cause so that you can understand it. And as am here to help... that’s why am trying to get you to go with it.  Now, let me summarize:
  
  1. Drink two glasses of water BEFORE you eat a meal (as in breakfast, lunch, dinner).  And coffee, pop, are NOT substitues for water!  Not even juice!
  2. Make sure you have a pinch of SEA SALT, not that over-processed white salt, with each two glasses of water, or get some of that salt and use it with all your meals (yes, contradicting popular MD belief about that!)
  3. If you are overweight, then, as well, walk one hour every twelve hours... and you will see that weight drop!
  4. It’s not about the food you eat!  Your body WILL process it... provided you get the right amount of water and salt! Real salt. Not that white crap.
  
  OK?  And I THANK Lydia profusely for that book.  I was aware of it but never ordered it. Some folks have really big hearts!  You know?
  
  Here is a link to that fantastic and real salt: www.realsalt.com
   
• OPFM Message:
  
  “It is Official….Compression has Begun
   
   
  OPFM began compressing our Miracle Matrix Officially at 9:01 PM EST today Tuesday October 10, 2006.
   
  We have journeyed far together as a team and your continued support to this team is appreciated, your hard work will not go unrewarded!
   
  Compression means that those members in unpaid status will be pushed to the bottom of the matrix while those in paid status will be compressed up in the matrix. All new OPFM members from the time we announced the 72 hour verification period are being held and will be placed below those in unpaid status once compression is complete.
   
  It is Official….Compression has Begun
   
   
  Any member that is marked “R” is considered in paid status and will be verified and marked paid during this time frame. Anyone that has submitted payments for members prior to the announcement of compression will be verified and included as paid status members (this does not include our newer members). All newer members in paid status will be loaded into the matrix below the unpaid members.
   
  Over the next 48-96 hours Thomas will be monitoring the compression and any errors will be tracked and handled by Thomas during compression. The current data from the matrix views is being taken offline to a SQL Server; this is so the compression process can move along faster and without interruption on the main server.
   
  Once compression is complete and the views are visible you will first see your matrix with paid members only, then the unpaid and new members will be visible. The Speed Matrix will then come into view and you will be able to see the loading of the Speed Matrix from the Miracle Matrix.
   
  The Speed Matrix is loaded by time and date stamp in the preload and will progress as members complete their Miracle Matrix.
   
  Your profile will be updated for you to select how you wish to receive your commission. You will be able to choose one of our payment processors or company check.
   
  The minute compression is completed OPFM will announce our Official Launch, and open for the entire Internet Community.
   
  AD…VER…TISE
   
  Everyone needs to talk it up, advertise on line and off line using the many tools we have provided. If you cannot pay it forward you need to get your regular advertising pages out on free exchanges if you cannot pay for a traffic exchange or other advertising venue.
   
   
  GROW YOUR BUSINESS
   
  We want to build this team over the next weeks and months so the entire OPFM Family can continue to grow their commission!
   
  It is time to get off the fence, no need to wait any longer team. Remember that early bird he gets the worms!
   
  "Search near and far for your dreams for they may drop right in front of you without you fully realizing...then they disappear and are lost forever...recognize and embrace your dream and enjoy living the dream...make your dreams reality."

• As you may or may not know by now, Korea is the Nuke Kid on the BLOCK! The next sign, according to Ed Dames, from a while back, is Korea firing a Nuke over Japan in anger. Then what he calls the sun event, or kill shot will occur. Oh hey!  Have a nice day!
   
• The newest version of Adsense Secrets Templates launches today at noon, EST.  Am buying a set myself! Make sure you act on it today! Every day you delay they are upping the price until they are sold out. The last version sold out within one and a half days!  So there you go!  Not kidding you!  By they way, this is a whole new version, so if you bought these a while back? It’s all new now, expanded, and so on, and version 2 will be offered after you buy the first version (expanded, as I understand it).  That’s how it goes.
  
  And all the slick mesages you are receiving by now?  They are about this.  So just get the answers from me!  js
  
  “Lol, ok thanks John. I assure you we're not reselling the previous Volume 1
  in any way... Believe me I know these templates quite intimately
  
  Eric”  Now that’s good to hear!  So folks? If you’re inclined to build an Adsense Empire?  Using pre-built templates?  Go for it! Else wallow in mediocrity. OK, am just kidding! Grin.
   
• ALERT: I received an e-mail from a friend that has been monitoring EverlastingNine closely and advises me to get out.  Well, I have read the Admin e-mail today and here is a very disturbing sentence:
  
  “Also those accounts with no number as the Egold account are being removed. It's useless to email me asking why I deleted it. I can't pay out if I don't have the E-Gold number.
  ”
  What?  He’s REMOVING accounts that have no e-gold number set in the profile? Even if these folks have NOT yet requested a payout? Holy..... bananas! Is this guy insane or is he running with the money even right now? Or does he mean that w/d requests on accounts with no e-gold acct. number are being deleted? Boy oh boy.  He had better clarify this and quick!
  
  And I till I receive my w/d I will recommend you not play.. and in this one that he’s pushing:
  
  http://www.tpr-reloaded.com - so DO NOT PLAY until I have more news on it.
  
  I have requested a w/d today and will tell you tomorrow if I’ve received it. If I have not? Well, I will condemn this programme!
   
• Am toning down on GAP. The recent hack and so on. Failure to payout recent request payouts.  And even earlier ones. Yes, I may lose as a result (two pendings totaling about 1K).  But it’s time to say that this one is not working out!  All switch to 12by12daily!  Now!  (Click on the Reviews button up top, then Ctrl-F on 12by12 and read the fantastic review there!)
   
• EverlastingNine: Just paid me my w/d request! So am not sure if to continue or if to run... I’d say... forget about it!  Run!  At least if you’re over the 12 days.  I just got paid!  Not for today, but enough!  So am not sure about this one?! Not sure at all!

• One more reminder. I do not recommend MoneyMakerDownline!
   
• Shopright: Bonus Pool checks have been delayed (when I mentioned that I got a check I mean commissions from sponsoring, not bonus pool.):
  
  As has been announced via email and special conference call, the bonus pool payout has been delayed due to circumstances beyond our control, due to delays with the oil company.
   
  We have decided to delay the payouts until February 1, 2007 in order to allow time for bonuses to be created.  We have also enhanced the bonus pool by adding 2 additional income streams to it. You may read about this on the Bonus Pool page of your website.
   
  Thank you,

• ViperGame is gone?????  Seems to be.  No site found!  I won’t even bother cussing up and down.
   
• For those of you who are interested in building An Adsense Empire, Volume II of Adsense Secrets will be released tomorrow!
  
  I have bought the first set and am very impressed. It won't happen overnight, but if you implement what they will teach you to implement you could be looking at a nice passive income in 4+ months or more, or less.
  
  Here is some soft hype from Joel Comm, one of the partners in this (Eric of Eric's Tips is the other).
  
  "It's not enough that Joel Comm is the world's
  foremost expert on Google AdSense...
  
  It's not enough that his book, The AdSense Code,
  has recently become a New York Times Best
  Seller...
  
  And it's not enough that his last product sold
  out in less than 48 hours...
  
  No, this time Joel Comm has gone completely
  overboard and created the most impressive and
  comprehensive package on Google AdSense that I
  have ever seen!
  
  http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?af=425405 (yep, that's my link)
  
  He has just revealed that the next generation of
  Instant AdSense Templates is NOT just about
  AdSense. In fact, it is all about building
  virtual real estate (VRE) systems that can be
  monetized with multiple revenue streams!
  
  I can't even begin to describe how much is in
  this package...
  
  ... More Templates
  ... More Formats
  ... More Graphics
  ... More Training Resources
  ... More Videos
  ... and More Surprises!
  
  And when you see the price on this package...
  
  YOU WILL THINK JOEL HAS LOST HIS MIND!!!
  
  Ok, that's enough from me. You owe it to
  yourself to go and see exactly what I am talking
  about while the set it still available.
  
  Remember, last time Joel's product sold out in
  less than 48 hours... so don't miss this!
  
  http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?af=425405
  
  To your success,
  
  John"
  
  What I like about this stuff is that if you DO take the time to follow the simple instructions, you could have a full time income in less than a year!  Recurring!  Passive!  No need to go out there recruiting, let the people find you!  Now this is the kind of programme I have lots of energy for.  Set it up and let it run!
  
  For those of you who don't know what am talking about? Look at the top of the BLOG page.  You will see I have two rows of Adsense ads. Further, on the left, there is a box full of links.  All of them are pre-built Adsense Ad sites built by Joel Comm and Eric. I simply changed the Adsense ID to mine in there!  That's it!  So when folks click on the links in the BLOG and at those sites, I get pennies each time. Those add up! OK?

• I had a note from a reader (below) and my response follows:
  
  “Hi js,
  
  Quite alot of new things happening at 13DP. I was surprised as the new rules, scripts and plans changed so suddenly.
  
  Negatives are :
  
  1) Alertpay pay processor - higher transaction costs.
  
  2) For amount above $2500 and above - the rule of 50 / 50 will be imposed. Too much cash trapped. Not good. I think 25% is good enough.
  
  Positives :
  
  1) VIP members - higher daily % and higher referral commissions.
  
  2) Increased to 3 active upgrades at any time.
  
  3) Three different plans
  
  Any comments ?

• Here’s an update from CommandSurf Admin: (use the Reviews button to see my review)
  
  “Attention All Enlistees,
  
  If you haven’t been keeping count of the days like we have, today October 7, 2006 is our 6 month anniversary. We feel that we’ve accomplished an awful lot of things in this period but we still have more to tackle to legitimize this industry, putting Command Corps at the center. Also, we are sending this email out of the forum because we are afraid if we log in to the admin panel to send an email we will deactivate the script and we would be left with our hands tied behind our back until Monday morning when Pats Pro gets to work.
  
  Anyway, in celebration of our 6 month anniversary, we are going to be offering a couple different contests.  The first contest will be a testimonial contest. Each member will have the ability if they so choose to write a testimonial about us in a forum of their choice and then post the link in a thread in CommandForum. The testimonial can be in our forum as well. We will then place these testimonials in a new section. The contest will begin immediately and end at 11:59 on Friday night. Prizes will be announced shortly thereafter.
  
  The General
  
  Command Corps Media Network, LLC.”
   
• I’ve been asked why I don’t comment on The Network.  I have, somewhere in the BLOG.  But I will comment again. My gut feel is that these guys are set up to collapse, like a domino effect. Why? There is some indication, at least to myself, that the seven or so programs pool their money and pay out of each programme as their payouts are staggered and on occasion they’ve made a mistake in paying some folks out of the wrong programme! I can’t prove it. It’s almost like having one Admin run 7 surf programmes and rotating the money.  Why run 7 programmes? Make one successful.  So that’s how I look at The Network.
  
  But I must say that there are folks out there, obviously, who are very pleased with that operation.  Well, it’s up to you.
   
• SwissCash: Whenever asked about this I have said, at least in my recent posts in my BLOG, that this was a scam. Now I find that Leo of DrunkOnLife, has found damning info posted in a forum on the 'net.  Here it is: (Oh and I have a link to his BLOG way up top).
  
  Two Datuks held over Internet scam
  
  KUALA LUMPUR: Two Datuks and six others have been placed under remand to help investigations into a get-rich-quick scheme that allegedly promised “huge returns for a minimum investment.”
  
  The Datuks, aged 47 and 57, were produced before a magistrate’s here yesterday together with the others, aged 26 to 58, after their arrest on Monday.
  
  Magistrate Azniza Mohd Ali ordered them to be remanded for five days, until Oct 7.
  
  The police are investigating the case under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating.
  
  The alleged scam, known as SwissCash or Swiss Mutual Fund (1948), was uncovered early last month and reported in a Malay tabloid.
  
  Over 50,000 people have purportedly signed up for the scheme since its introduction in April last year.
  
  The Swiss Embassy here has denied that its government had approved the scheme and also rebuffed claims that it was based in Switzerland.
  
  SwissCash, which operates through the Internet, claims to be an “easy, fast and secure scheme.”
  
  It claimed investors’ funds were channelled to business activities ranging from oil exploration to shipping and agriculture in the Caribbean.
  
  Investors are required to pay a registration fee of US$30 (RM110) to join the scheme, which allegedly offers huge returns for a minimum investment of US$100 (RM370).
  
  Those behind the scheme also claimed that investments of US$1,000 (RM3,700) or more could earn a profit of up to 300% after 15 months.
  
  However, after the report appeared in the tabloid, the Securities Commission and Bank Negara released statements saying SwissCash had no licence to collect funds.
  
  Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi also issued a statement calling on those duped by the scam to quickly lodge reports.
  
  Among the scheme’s purported victims are a lawyer, a consultant, a technician and the secretary-general of a government ministry. They claimed they had been cheated of nearly RM20mil.
   
• I sense a war coming on between the USA and Mexico.  Do you? The signs have long been there.  Even more so now. This is not a political statement.  Just my observation.
   
• I have an idea.  I propose to start an “Unfettered” club list, maybe on yahoo so that anyone who wishes to join can do so. The specifics? Well, I will post in there anything and everything I wish to post.... a lot of it will be controversial, from the Religious to the Spiritual to Conspiratorial to how we got here to the Illuminati, to world news and what I think is happening. What do you think? How do you feel? You see, I can’t post all that here or it would freak out too many folks who simply just want to make money. If you’re in agreement... then send me a note and by the end of the next seven days will decide whether to launch it or not.
  
  Hey, those who are not ready for some of the material that I will present? Well, they will simply overlook the above paragraph. Trust me.  That’s how it works.  And those of you who join?  Just be prepared to be pushed to the limit! OK?  And I DON’T want a back and forth argument list!  I will simply push you, and if you wish to push back... examine it yourself. Don’t think that this will be a debate list. Am not into that.  I have no patience for it.  And for those of you into New Age? It’s not my truth! You have MUCH to discover on that. So don’t join.
  
  OK, am receiving enough requests to make me think that I should set this up. So here it is: Subscribe here.  You can also simply visit the html page: http://ca.groups.yahoo.com/group/radiantjs
   
• You may have heard of SimpleOlogy.com by now, run by guru Mark Joyner! He is back with a lot of New Age crap! Yep. Oh.  You may think am against New Age by that comment? Well, not really.  All paths do lead back to God.  But... what he is perpetrating is the same old crap that has been perpetrated for a number of years. And most of it simply glorifies the ego.  Makes your ego even stronger, with “spiritual” powers!  Is that the way?  To make the ego that you already have stronger?  The Way is the way of Surrender of the ego! Not of the strengthening of it (and I use this term of the ego in a different way than Theosophy does, ok?). So I would advise you to not join simpleology (I have, much to my surprise). Am sorry, many of the ideas are fine... but.. it promotes a super ego! As if you can get what you want here, in this World, of desires, and ego conflicts, and illusion!  The Matrix! This is NOT a heaven realm!
   
• You know? Am glad I staid off of most forums!  The shit that goes on there is truly formidable.  So I will continue to express my views and not fight in any of the forums out there!

• DollarMonster is still going great! I can’t believe it!  Still a 3 day cycle time and I’ve been paid over four times now!
  
  “Another Quick DollarMonster Status!
  
  Hello All,
  
  Here is another quick status about DollarMonster!
  
  1) Yes, things are going very well - if you are
  only registered, but you haven't bought a position
  yet, get that E-Gold Account funded or make enough
  commission from your promotion efforts and get
  involved by buying a position - just use all the
  E-Gold you can get your hands on! DollarMonster
  has continually shown that things can be easy and
  fun, making money on the web!
  
  
  2) The minimum spend has been increased to a
  
  $2 minimum.
  
  This will let people test the system better.
  
  
  3) Remember, you don't need your own E-Gold funds
  if you are a promoter - here is the associated FAQ:
  
  Q: Do I have to fund my E-Gold Account to promote DollarMonster?
  
  A: No, you can start promoting DollarMonster immediately upon
  signing up - so you can start promoting, earning money before
  you get your E-Gold Account funded - in fact, you can promote
  DollarMonster, then use the commissions you earn to buy your
  own DollarMonster positions, never having bought a position
  with your own money!
  
  Motto of the story, promoters? Promote DollarMonster
  and make some quick money - remember, E-Gold makes
  it possible for you to withdraw your commission
  earnings to your E-Gold Account on the same day you
  earn them, but normally within 24-36 hours!
  
  
  4) The FAQs have been improved, to answer most of the questions
  people are having in the Support Mailbox - feel free to review
  them at
  
  http://members.dollarmonster.com/faqs.htm
  
  
  Again, things are going very well - the spends are increasing
  slowly, which happens to be perfect for the way DollarMonster
  is designed - and
  
  a) the membership is increasing by the minute!
  
  b) the number of members participating is increasing daily!
  
  c) the number of members in profit is increasing daily!
  
  Get the picture?
  
  You can view the realtime statistic on the second page of
  anyone's Affiliate Web Site.
  
  And remember also, the matrix of DollarMonster lets more
  people be in profit than any other matrix you will
  encounter on the web - and without promoting!
  
  
  As always, be sure to keep your passwords well under
  control for your Member Area of DollarMonster and
  your E-Gold Accounts. Remember, you don't want someone
  taking over your DollarMonster or E-Gold Account,
  right?
  
  
  Great job everyone!

• To get in on the Ad Coop that is being run by Derek Bohlken for Empowerism... request it here!  By the way, my offer to put you into that Ad-Coop provided you sign up a person... only applies to individuals. Not list owners who can bombard hundreds of clients and get me to pay out $20 for each!  It is meant to  encourage the individuals out there who can sign up a friend or two because it is a good deal! OK?  Please do not abuse it.
   
• I just got this from a trusted reader about MoneyMakerDownline!  The news is not good! And the $99 to join is just too much for most folks!  They are preying on those who have very little.
  
   
• OurPowerForcedMatrix or OPFM Update:
  
  “Dear John
   
  "The world is round, and the place which may seem like the end may also be only the beginning."
  ---Ivy Baker
   
  OPFM’s commitment to the team from the very beginning has been to do everything possible to assist in the success of the entire OPFM team. That has been our team approach from the inception of OPFM.
   
  OPFM is a ground breaking opportunity; no one has ever done what our team is doing and let’s recap just what that is.
   
   OPFM began a year ago; it was started as we all know from an advertising project Thomas began with a group of students. It exploded into a large group of dedicated members. Remember from early on it was always Thomas’ intention to build a matrix program for the team. Most businesses design the business opportunity and then bring the team together. Thomas’ idea was to bring the team together and tailor the business around us, genius and time consuming. What we will have however is a business built for the members and it is for that reason we have allowed the verification and pay it forward period to extend. Who would have ever thought so many teammates would choose to pay it forward for so many team members, we did not!
   
  This is all to our benefit, the more members we have in paid status the healthier our matrix views will be, not just for us but for our sponsored members. People that have not had the success you may have had in sponsoring are seeing the growth in their matrix also and that growth equals commission for your team and the team as a whole.
   
  It however must come to a close and we have established Tuesday October 10th at 9:00 PM EST as the official time limit. If you are Paying It Forward for a teammate that payment must be in the office either by money order or via one of the payment processors at that time! No Exception!
   
  The more you can do to alleviate the amount of verification the better. Use the tools we have provided in the updates to view your matrix and submit your research tickets there. Call upon your sponsor and your down line team to assist you. This all helps!
   
  There is not a member of OPFM or the Management Team that looks forward to beginning compression more than Thomas. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing your own project complete. Compression is just the beginning of this amazing opportunity we call OPFM! We have the plan, products, design and most important we have our team, don’t lose sight of where we are headed, it is only the beginning to a long and prosperous relationship.
   
  Use these helpful ideas to view your matrix.
   
  The more ram, the better. I had better luck with XP pro, rather than XP home. Also, turn off everything you can. All the little icons in the lower right corner, things like anti virus (only as long as it takes to DL), yahoo, msn, AIM messengers, ECT. [js: of course this DID NOT WORK FOR ME! Even with almost a gig of RAM! So it is inexcusable!]
  
  Firefox - under tools, options, privacy, cache .........increase cache size.
  Page file should be increased automatically.
  
  You can hit control +alt+del and bring up the task manager so you can watch the page as it is loading.
  
  Do nothing else when trying to DL , and if you have trouble making anything work , try to give it a long time , and then hit file control-s , then choose save as web page complete , you then might be able to get a copy ( on CD or jump drive ) and find a computer that will open it . [js: again, this did not WORK for ME!  And is inexcusable!]
   
  Use the Pay It Forward link.
   http://www.ourpowerforcedmatrix.com/speedmatrix_payment_process.php?UID=53309
   
  Call upon the moderators in the forum or the helpful team staffing the Help Desk. We are here to assist you with any difficulty you may have.
   
  Let’s get this done team so we can announce compression the next time we meet, Tuesday! [js: Why don’t you write a new script that is server based rather than client based and thereby make this a success?]
   
  The on line conference room will be open Sunday evening at 8:00PM EST for the OPFM opportunity. You are welcome to bring any new or prospective members to that presentation Sunday evening. Remember to sign in using your name and OPFM ID.

You are who you decide to be, not who other people decide for you to be. Be noble. Stand on the higher ground. Create your life and then go out and live it."

  We are committed to the success of our team! [js: if you truly are, then hire a real programmer or two and rewrite the script!  This is starting to sound like a Carl job, from ECC!] Hey, I stand to lose a lot of money if this Thomas guy decides that his ego was rubbed the wrong way and cancels me out!  But.. am hoping he really listens, goes beyond his ego, and does the right thing. That script is not it! I suspect that he wrote it.  So that’s why the ego thing!  Thomas!  Please! Get a real good programmer who can do justice! And let’s move on with this thing! It’s staling!

• Slow start today.
   
• I am really impressed with the Advertisers that both CommandSurf and DeserSkyMarketing have acquired!  Now it’s going to be proof time!  These advertisers will demand stats!  So we should do our part and sign in to those, buy products there, and so on. It’s a good endeavor!
   
• Holy ummmm... you know!  Get a load of this one!  This is hot and new and right off the press and so on.  Just read the sales letter and you will understand!
   
• Re my offer for ad coop shares below: it’s not retroactive.  Only from here on in for new signups in your downline (not overspill, but your own direct efforts).
   
• Just got yet another check/cheque in the mail from Sright or ShopRight, the Oil concern (use the Reviews button up top to find them) for $95 USD. I tend to get one of these every two weeks or so!  That’s just fantastic!  Because I earn $50 on each signup and $50 again on their signups, minus a $5 check/cheque processing fee.
   
• Re the Empowerism Ad Coop offer, below, each share is worth $20, so that’s... yeah! Quite expensive! And am willing to give you a spot for that if you go out there and sign up a person!  Am not sure how it will work out, but am willing to motivate some of you to go out there and make some money! Don’t just be passive! Unless you already have a lot of money, being passive does not usually work out!
  
  9:20 PM EST: Two folks have already qualified and are now in the rotator for Empowerism run by Derek Bohlken, my upline.  Congratulations to Gerald and Ginny! And thanks to Kevin as well, my upline’s upline!  Thanks Kevin!
   
• I can’t believe that DollarMonster is still at a 3 day cycling time! I’ve cycled twice now, have received three withdrawals! Well, so far so good then!

• I have joined this programme, despite my DD on it, mainly because WORLDLPP.COM is behind it (see Reviews page via the Reviews button). And it’s a small fee to join and worth the risk. Most others are not as you know nothing about them.  In this case, I trust WORLDLPP.COM Admin! Here is the announcement by WORLDLPP.COM:
  
  “Hi everyone. Conrad here and I just have a quick and short announcement. MBC is all set to go, and you are all in the pre-launch before it even starts. Please go to the following: http://www.megabonusclub.com and take a look. Read it all before committing as they have a very interesting strategy, and a very solid plan. If you do join, market it aggressively as the first ones in stand to benefit the most (that's why I wanted you all to have first rights).
  
  Additionally, we will get $5.00 for every paid sign-up for the next 30 days!! We can use that capital to get everything moving to the next level as well. And now our IT Center can focus on Vivamin and Prizexplosion once again too.
  
  All commissions are out and paid. If you have not received yours, then please email us at admin@worldlpp.com (but give the checks enough time to reach you first). That's it for now. G'day!
  
  Conrad
  PS: We will leave unit buying open until further notice too, so please do your part there as well.

• A note about CommandSurf and DeserSkyMarketing:
  
  In general, the first 25 to 30 sites are premium sites.  These are the sites from REAL advertisers, not just you and I promoting our own opps.  So these need to be manual! As the Admin has to provide some kind of proof that the ads are being seen!  Now that’s to your advantage! Because if you put money in there... you are almost guaranteed to make money on that!  Because it is not a ponzi scheme or game! And should last a long time... if the Advertisers are happy with the results!
  
  The next 20 or so sites, are the ones that earn YOU the money! And are on autosurf setting! So it’s not as bad as some make it seem! So there you go! And please do support both DeserSkyMarketing and Commandsurf.  Both DesertSky and CommandSurf have been added to the Reviews page! So those of you with 9PR sites?  Sign in and add your info beside those programmes!

• Empowerism!  Ok folks, here is an offer from myself (and Kevin, which I will supplement; thanks Kevin! Kevin has bought 10 shares on my behalf with Derek and he’s in my upline!  Wow! I guess he has noticed the growth!):
  
  I will put in one share in the Ad Co-Op that Derek is running for his second Company: Empowerism, on YOUR behalf.  But only if you put your pants on and go out there and get one person signed with you! Send me proof and I will buy a share on your behalf!  Include your Empowerism ID! That share will enter you into a rotator, with your own Empowerism site, so that YOU will get the fast start bonus ($20 bucks).  So... go for it! If you wish to add your own funds to the Ad coop then e-mail me for instructions.
  
   
• The login issue at CommandSurf seems to have disappeared today.  It could be a session issue as Admin suggests in his update below.  So if you have a lot of browser windows going at the same time, try shutting all of them down, then try loging in at CommandSurf. I rebooted today and opened only one session and could sign in just fine.  It could well be that if I have a lot of windows/sessions open to other sites, especially surf sites that I may be running out of some type of hash memory where the session IDs are kept.  In any case, here is the udpate:
  
  “I just wanted to take this time to go over a few things.
  
  1. The members that are not able to login have been credited. If you feel you were not, please post it in the forum.
  
  Our programmers have come to the conclusion that it is a user session/browser hiccup. Please try to only have one window with commandsurf.com open at a time.
  
  2. We now have Raffles enabled. You can purchase raffle tickets and the winner gets the prize amount for that raffle. The raffle tickets can be purchased by clicking on the yellow Raffle button in your overview page.
  
  3. We also have several advertising options available. Those can be seen by clicking on the yellow Advertising Packages button in your member overview page.
  
  4. Last, but certainly not least, is that we have updated our About Us information with our office hours, corporate info, and due diligence. Please visit our About Us page here:

• StomperNet: Am ignoring the hype. Most of you will not benefit from it.
   
• PAS to be shut down by the SEC:
  
  “From LA Times Website 09-28-2006
  
  WALL ST. ROUNDUP
  Internet Pyramid Scheme Alleged
  From Bloomberg News
  September 28, 2006
  
  The Securities and Exchange Commission is seeking to shut down a network of 25,000 websites, accusing operators of running a $15-million pyramid scheme that promises to shower participants with easy cash.
  
  Prosperity Automated System, which bills itself as a marketing network, "is destined to collapse and leave the vast majority of investors with substantial losses," the SEC said Wednesday.
  
  The complaint targets the network and its creator, William M. Osterhout of Citrus Heights, Calif.
  
  The websites, with such names as lazyandrich.net and profits4doingnothing.com typically offer testimonies from people claiming to make thousands of dollars by buying into the group, the SEC said.
  
  One site says the network "Showers You with Hands-Free Cash!"
  
  Visitors to the sites fill out forms and are later called by representatives selling memberships for as much as $3,895, the SEC said. New members are issued their own websites and eventually can receive a share of the money when more people buy memberships via their sites, according to the allegations.
  
  "Websites that come with the memberships do nothing but sell more memberships," said Stephen Donahue, an SEC enforcement official in Atlanta.
  
  Though some websites offer links to products or services, "those were attempts to cloak what is a fraudulent pyramid scheme, giving it the appearance of multilevel marketing," Donahue said.
  
  The defendants' attorney, D.J. Poyfair, could not be reached for comment.
  
  ” - thanks to Blondie for passing that on.
   
• dd 917Horsepower
  
  It's an autosurf.  One single click they say.  Well, that's good for those who are lazy and don't wish to watch the ads, but that bodes ill for the surf industry.  Again, am expressing my opinion here: I think in order to make this industry legitimate we should be watching the Ads!  Because at some point the owner of the surf site, if he or she is not just running a ponzi that will fold, will have to show some kind of proof to their sponsors that there are actual and real visitors.
  
  But then... this industry is filled with the "wrong" type of visitor.  The current visitor, 99% of the time, is really only looking to double his or her money in a month or less. They are not interested in the ads.  So this kind of site will continue to attract the same type, and of course, after some weeks, fold, as ponzis do not last long.
  
  Look folks, am not saying this is WRONG... it's just what is happening right now.  That's all. And if Admins out there want to establish a legitimate advertising industry... then keep up your efforts!  Or, actually, be more creative and start to attract the type of investor that you want. Am not saying I have the answers. I don't. Am just observing and commenting.
  
  OK, back to the review.
  
  So since my current audience simply wants to make the bucks... I will have to review this one in that light.
  
  153% in 17 days, so that's a 53% profit in 17+ days.
  
  The ad copy is a ripoff of other ripoffs of other sites. I wish they were more original!  That tells me it's not a professional outfit but most likely some mom and pop shop.
  
  The say they are located offshore to protect themselves against the actions of the SEC and even misspell Tax Haven (as Tax Heaven).
  
  And looks like from their front page that they are paying way too many monitor sites to monitor them.
  
  Pay outs are 3 times per month, 4 upgrades at any time, and it may take 9 business days to get paid... that's 11 days!  Wow.  Not good.
  
  "Are payouts guaranteed?
  No. The proposed payout is 9% of your Member Level each day you view 9 or more sites in our rotator for 17 days totally. The percentage may be adjusted up or down depending on the inflow of revenues. Downward adjustments may be necessary in periods of slow growth and could potentially reach zero at times to keep the program operating. The money you pay to upgrade your account is an upgrade FEE, not an investment. We state clearly that payments are non-refundable. Each member level you buy will earn for you for a set period and then expire. You can buy more levels at any time and extend your membership and earnings. Your fee is NOT returned to you. Instead, you can EARN up to 153% of your fees, plus an unlimited amount of referral commission, subject to the continued successful operation of the site. You must be aware to pay a non-refundable fee to join the program and share in its income. You are not "investing" or "depositing" and the money is no longer "yours". You are buying "visits" to your website and the opportunity to earn up to 153% of your fee, with no guarantee. Do not spend more than you can afford to possibly lose."
  
  By now, am wondering: why risk your money in this one when you have a proven vehicle like 12by12daily? I for one, would rather put in a large spend in 12by12daily than in this unproven autosurf!
  
  And I don't like the following:
  
  "How can 917HorsePower afford to pay us?
  
  The funds go into a pool to be redistributed to our members as earnings. Also, 30%-40% of the above funds are invested in various programs. Additionally, when members advertise their banners or purchase any other services from us, we use a percentage of the revenue generated to be given to our members."
  
  They are investing in other programmes?  I don't know of any that can return a greater ROI than they are paying out except for 12by12daily.  Well, there are... but they are very risky and fold quickly.  So.... am not too excited about this one.
  
  And then, for those of you who will be referring others, here's a bummer:
  
  "Furthermore we only allow 9 times commission per referral. This means that You will be paid commissions for the maximum of 9 times that each specific referral make an upgrade. After 9 upgrades, You will not be entitled to earn commissions on the specific referral upgrades anymore."
  
  I guess they will fold after about 9 cycles?!  Or will be in trouble by then?
  
  I don't feel like doing any further DD on this one... it is not viable.
   
• dd megabonusclub.com
  
  This is a one time pay, matrix.  Is it forced/overspill? Does not matter. Just started.  There are literally THOUSANDS of these out there and I've tried quite a few. The fact that there are no recurring, monthly, subscription fees is another nail in their coffin.  One time payments are just that.  One time and you’ve lost that payment!  It also means endless recruiting since there is no recurring payments (as in a product that needs to be bought each month as you run out of it).  Recurring payments means that once you have established a good downline, you don’t have to keep recruiting.  But this is not the case here.
  
  Now, I have not made it in any of those that are similar to this one!  This one requires continuous recruiting efforts.  The owner(s) have big promises and MOST of the time fail to deliver, even if you are adept at recruiting.
  
  This one has really high promises. And only one paid member so far! Am sorry, but it's unproven and only those who will recruit like crazy have a chance of making some good money.
  
  Now, unless I get more data on the owners and their big plans (as in who they will get involved and their credentials) I cannot honestly recommend this one.
  
  So it's a no go.
  
  I have just found out that WORLDLPP.COM is promoting this one! So... I may have to eat my words as it may become successful due to that backing.
   
• This just in from Admin of Everlastingnine.  I tend to agree with his comments.
  
  First I want to thank all the members for their continuous support and dedication towards the program. I am writing this email to address a few things that have been happening in the HYIP world lately mainly being the "forever" program fad and scammers.
  
  I am not in any way discouraging people from opening these "forever" types of programs. In fact I love the concept really, or else I wouldn't have used it myself, but some things that members fail to see is that beneficial as it may be, it is as much a great tool for a potential scam to be made. Everyone seems to want to open a forever program here, and a forever program there.... WHY? Because that is where the latest trend is at. Those are the places people are risking at and where they are dumping big monies. Before joining any forever site or any other hyip for that matter, make sure you look at these key factors:
  
  1) The admin is somewhat known and has been in the hyip world for a good amount of time (meaning AT LEAST over 6 months).
  2) Apart from the admin being known, he/she also needs to have a good reputation and track record, which doesn't mean running a site for 1-2 months is enough, it has to be more, preferably 6 months or more.
  3) There is no mass advertising and excess spending of funds all at once.
  4) Watch out for excess cheerleading and pimping all around the place by the administrator and his/her "friends".
  5) Admin constantly trying to force you to believe he/she is honest.
  6)Beware of the referral whores that cling from one site to another depositing small amounts and cashing big from referral commissions. These people will make you believe anything and that "in their opinion" the site is honest and will payout forever.
  7)And finally, one important point is - DON'T LET NICE GRAPHIC DESIGNS GET TO YOU - JUST CAUSE IT LOOKS NICE, DOESN'T MEAN IT WILL BE RUN NICELY.
  
  In my opinion, following these points will surely decrease the risk of being involved in a scam site. It doesn't mean you will never lose out, it means you are playing more cautiously.
  The more sites popping up means the more money will be diversified between them and the less amount of time programs will run/live. Sometimes its good to stick to a few honest paying sites and not go round 10s of them.
  At the moment there are a few honest programs that deserve attention which is being diverted to other programs by "newbie" admins which run a much higher risk of potentially scamming. We have just saw a big one that collapsed as fast as it was built up with the admin running with some $60,000 according to statistics if it was all real money. Don't trust anyone with your money.
  
  I hope this served as somewhat useful information to everyone. If you think its a pile of BS then please just ignore it. I'm sorry if I offended you.
   
• Ok, I know I removed a post of mine from yesterday’s BLOG (or was that before that?) because in re-reading it I felt that some folks would not understand and be offended.  So am going to rephrase it here, right now:
  
  You are in exactly the spot you wanted to be in, and want to be in.  Right now.  Financially, family-wise, socially and so on. If you did not, you would not be!  Now am going to let you ponder that before I enter into any kind of explanation. You are exactly in the place you (secretly, unconsciously) want to be in!  Now all you have to do right now is to examine that!  And if you have ADD or ADHD of course it makes it hard as you can’t keep a train of thought for long.  And that’s designed.  OK, no more.  Some of you get this, most of you don’t.  And that’s ok as well.
   
• OPFM Update!
  
  “We have had several reports from teammates that they have been able to view their matrix using the instructions that we included in our update of Sunday. Teammates that have in the past not been able to view their matrix because of the size of the view have now been able to see their matrix view and utilize the Research function. If you have not been able to view your matrix please try loading your view using the suggestions below.
   
  The more ram, the better. I had better luck with XP pro, rather than XP home. Also, turn off everything you can. All the little icons in the lower right corner, things like anti virus (only as long as it takes to DL), yahoo, msn, AIM messengers, etc.
  
  Firefox - under tools , options , privacy , cache .........increase cache size .
  Page file should be increased automatically.
  
  You can hit control +alt+del and bring up the task manager so you can watch the page as it is loading.
  
  Do nothing else when trying to DL , and if you have trouble making anything work try to give it a long time , and then hit file control-s , then choose save as web page complete , you then might be able to get a copy (on CD or jump drive) and find a computer that will open it.
   
  Now for an update! For several weeks prior to the 72 hour period beginning the team was encouraged to contact down line members and bring those in unpaid status to paid status. The 72 hour period was for upgrading those in unpaid status and or to research a member that should be showing in paid status. What happened during that first day was a growth of PIF receipts trickled in and this continued into the next 24 hours. On the final day of the 72 hour period that number grew and extended further into the next couple of days. We were prepared with a large number of staff members on hand but the numbers continued to grow. All these upgrades have to be manually input so the member does not get compressed out. We have members paying it forward for as many as 100 in their down line!
   
  It takes time to input these changes and verify the information so the data is correct, we are continuing with this verification and it is progressing well. We also received requests to move members and if the request was a valid request it had be completed prior to turning on the compression switch. We are hoping that all will be completed so we can begin compression Thursday evening at 9:00PM EST. Thomas will attend the Thursday call to give us an update on where we are. Thursday is our goal!
   
  We have to realize that although upgrading members is beneficial we must decide when the cut off is so we can move forward and Officially Open OPFM. We would like to say that we have reached that point now.
   
  Many have grown their down lines to 16 levels and further, once compression takes place many are going to see further growth in their matrix. We are in great shape and would like to see the continual growth of our business. Everyone’s advertising efforts are increasing the potential commission levels we are about to enjoy so keep up the great work.
   
  Members have requested information on business structures and or entities. We have detailed information in the member center however for those members in the USA you can research further at: http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=102767,00.html
   
  And in Canada at: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tax/business/menu-e.html
   
  As we have stated many times in the past we are only at the beginning of OPFM, this is the time to continue with the growth of your business. Utilize the tools that have been placed in your member center to assist you. The training material in your member center will help you get started.
   
  Thursday marks the one year anniversary of OPFM; it would be very exciting if it also marked the beginning of compression and launch of the OPFM Hyper Matrix!
   
  The on line training call for Wednesday Evening this week will be at 10:00PM EST instead of the regular time of 8:00PM.
   
  OPFM Management Team”  I have not yet added them to the Reviews page simply because... they have not come through yet and I don’t know whether it is a scam or not! So... let’s see how this matrix load goes, despite the fact that I can’t load it!  Then I may just add it to the Reviews Page.
   
• New Opp: MoneyMakerDownline.  I’ve reviewed it briefly and frankly, there is no evidence to support that it will become a good one. So for now, sign up for free, and let’s see what happens near the end of the month!

Oct. 3rd (Tuesday)

• I just had a really good conversation on the phone with one of the Owners at BringYourBuddy.  He helped me move one of my orphaned folks underneath another deserving member and as well mentioned that there are some really good changes to come!  The AR right now does not accept imports of your leads, but if you upgrade? Seven bucks a month and you ca
