Google is a wimp !
by August 3, 2004 7:41 AM PDT
After reading this story, I am appalled that Google would succumb to pressure from groups complaining about the Public Internet. It is a Public INternet afterall, and Google cannot be help responsible for all the various web pages out there, no matter how rude, vulger or immorla they are. I would say to Google "No you cannot sue us for content that is not provided by us, we are only a search engine that provides links to various sites, and we do not take any ownership of the links themselves, only the search engine."
GOole, you are a *****(willow) for letting anyone tel you what you can and cannot search on, on the Public INternet. Toughen up, and don't back down.
Insulate yourself from ownership of the web sites !

Clients Stood To Benefit From Suspect Stock Sales - Claim

If you take the title above and put it into a google search you will find a KYC link that then has another link to 'The Royal Gazette' article by that very title.The article cites KYC's and the SEC'S investigation into LOM of Bermuda and it's U.S.BROKERAGE ACCOUNTS USED IN HEAVY TRADING, WHICH TO ME SIGNIFIES PENNY STOCK MANIPULATION FOR ITS ANONYMOUS CLIENTS AND PUMP DUMP ACTIVITIES THROUGH CHARLES SCHWAB,VFINANCE AND OTHER ACCOUNTS.

Although the article mentions Schwab and LOM,of course,the link to KYC DOES NOT !!!! If you do a google search of 'schwab,
'lom','kyc',you will not find it.You must google search with the title above !!! This WAS NOT the case only a short while ago as well as my ripoffreport citing Carol Remond's mention of LOM's Schwab and other brokerage accounts in U.S.Below is what was found on Google UNTIL ONLY A SHORT WHILE AGO FROM 'THE ROYAL GAZETTE' WITH A GOOGLE SEARCH OF ONLY 'SCHWAB' AND 'LOM !!!

I am sensitive to bringing this up HOWEVER AS A PUMP DUMP THROUGH CHARLES SCHWAB IS WHAT CAUSED ME TO LOSE MY ENTIRE 'INVESTMENT' OF ENDOVASC I MUST BRING IT UP AND RESOLVE IT IN MY MIND AT LEAST.

My own ripoffreport has now been 'virtually' deleted from google searches as well.ALL WORD INDEXING OF MY REPORT-COMPLAINT DISAPPEARED AND IT MUST BE LOCATED THROUGH GOOGLE BY SEARCH 'SCHWAB LOM DAVIDSON'BECAUSE 'SCHWAB LOM' ALONE NO LONGER FINDS IT.EVEN THEN IT ONLY LEADS TO RIPOFFREPORT INDEX,AND TO MY REPLY TO A SCHWAB INVESTOR OR EMPLOYEE TELLING ME I'M CRAZY, NOT DIRECTLY TO MY LARGE AND DOCUMENTED REPORT-COMPLAINT !!! No longer can it be found by a simple 'schwab lom' google search.

And a DowJones article of May 2004 by Carol Remond that was posted on siliconinvestor and also located by a simple 'schwab lom' search disappeared long ago after I pointed this out both here and on rb and the yahoo sch message boards.SO AT LEAST 3 IMPORTANT REFERENCES TO 'SCHWAB' AND 'LOM' HAVE GONE VIRTUALLY MISSING FROM GOOGLE.AND PERHAPS MORE IF ONE CONSIDERS ADDITIONAL 'THE ROYAL GAZETTE'ARTICLES ALSO APPEAR TO HAVE GONE MISSING FROM A GOOGLE SEARCH OF LOM, ETC.And it's not as if there are so many 'schwab lom' references on google.Often even other languages that have the words or name 'schwab lom' fill pages and now adding other words to make the search more precise no longer work.

SOME OF MY RAVING ABOUT THIS ON THIS VERY MESSAGE BOARD ARE ABOUT ALL THAT REMAINS ON A GOOGLE SEARCH OF 'SCHWAB LOM'AND I DOUBT EVEN THEY WILL REMAIN MUCH LONGER.I would much prefer to find 'The Royal Gazette'articles,the Carol Remond article or my own ripoffreport on a google search of 'schwab' 'lom' etc. than my raving about their disappearance !!!

In retrospect I wish I had cut and pasted many more word searches related to this from my google searches. However I DID cut and paste the Google search page for a 'schwab lom google'search on November 9 as it became increasingly apparent to me that the disappearance of at least 3 references to 'schwab'and 'lom' was a strange coincidence to say the least !!!(This was the time when I realised a simple 'schwab lom' search could not even find the Gazette article and I needed to add 'gazette' or 'google',strangely enough,to the search,even though 'google' is not mentioned in the article.

If this message board were like my cut and paste the links would still be active and in colors of the Google page.However I have taken the link from the former Google cache or 'filtered' Google cache,I don't know which,and when you use it,as you can see below,you get a google page that says,as you can see below,'Sorry no content found for this URL'.You can still see the old URL below and of course the link to the Gazette article is still active and the article is still online at 'The Royal Gazette'(just as my ripoffreport is still at ripoffreport.com and Carol Remond's article still online at siliconinvestor),so obviously the Gazette is not hiding its own article in shame.

If anyone had any feedback I'd sure like to hear it.Where do google caches go to die and do they die a 'natural' death or does someone kill them ?

Where Do Google Caches Go When They Die,Again ?
by May 24, 2005 2:19 PM PDT
This is in reponse to the virtual disappearance from Google search of my reply to Declan McCullagh's article,'Google excluding controversial sites',that I wrote and
titled,'Where Do Google Caches Go When They Die',in December 2004.

I was pleased to note that shortly after writing it it appeared at the top of a Google search of words or names 'schwab lom' or 'schwab lom google' or'schwab lom google gazette' for some time even though articles and caches that I had complained about going missing did not.

Today I was dismayed to note that Google had virtually disappeared it(you may google search title 'where do google caches go when they die' and see what you get but 'schwab lom google gazette'have been removed as key search words to locate my reply on news.com.Why ?

The truth is the penny stock fraud I am trying to expose that I was a victim of due to Charles Schwab's collusion with its and LOM of Bermuda's 'select' and anonymous clients is HUGE !! And Google should go out of its way not to show even a hint of possible collusion with Schwab that was involved with its IPO.

Until Google disappears these searches you may google 'mantas inc. schwab lom'as an example and begin to put the pieces together.Or try 'cia tenet ionatron' or 'naanss ncans',as a few examples of word or acronym searches that relate to my problem and the fraud being covered up in the penny stock 'share-money laundering' schemes I was defrauded by.


The www.theroyalgazette.com article whose disappearance I complained about at the time I wrote'Where Do Google Caches Go When They Die ?',as well as my ripoffreport.com complaint reappeared.But Carol Reond's article of May 2004 on siliconinvestor never did.The complete disappearance of my news.com reply on a 'schwab lom google' search is very recent.And just within a week or so The Royal Gazette article,(Schwab-LOM)'Clients stood to benefit from suspect stock sales ? claim' which had returned to Google and its cache COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED AGAIN !!!

I am including here below theroyalgazette.com
URL for this article on Schwab,LOM AND PENNY STOCK FRAUD AND THE PERTINATE PARAGRAGH EXPOSING
JUST HOW LARGE THIS FRAUD IS AND THUS INCENTIVE FOR COVER UP.Charles Schwab refuses to disclose to me who dumped 'up to 30 million Endovasc shares from a Schwab illegal pump dump account in late 2002 as James Dale Davidson whose Agora Publication's(that touted Ionatron for the CIA)'Vantage Point'promoted it with fraudulent lies.

And in the meantime Google wishes us to believe its all done(their word indexing,processing,and cache-ing)with some mysterious 'algorhtim' too
sophisticated and beyond reproach for us mere mortals to comprehend.

My reply is that 'algorhithm' should be replaced or overseen by a few good honest and ethical librarians and if the 'algorthim' offends them, at does some of us,then replace or rewrite it.

Clients stood to benefit from suspect stock sales ? claim


LOM Logo Scott Lines, Donald Lines and Brian Lines

Clients of investment firm Lines Overseas Management stood to profit from the alleged manipulation of a penny stock now under investigation by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, according to a court filing.
The SEC filing, first reported on yesterday by Miami-based newsletter Inside Bermuda, said the clients bought a total of 100,000 shares in Sedona Software Solutions from ICH Investments, a firm the SEC alleges is controlled by LOM principals Scott and Brian Lines.


The clients, who included directors such as company lawyer Graham Collis and Susan Wilson, senior employees like CFO Malcolm Moseley, and relatives of the Lines brothers, bought the shares for $4 a share on January 21, 2003 when the market price for the shares was $9.
In addition the SEC filing alleged that Scott Lines, the chief executive officer of LOM, and Brian Lines, the firm's president, also profited from the sales.


"Even though Brian and Scott Lines sold these shares for $4 per share, they still profited from these sales because they had purchased the Sedona shares for approximately seven cents per share," the SEC filing said.


Two of the compensated "touters" were identified as Intrepid Investor, which has a mailing list of "almost one million people", and OTC Journal, which has "over one million subscribers".
Details of the alleged discounted sales to privileged insiders and alleged compensation to stock promoters were disclosed in court filings by the SEC during October as it seeks to force LOM and Scott Lines to comply with four subpoenas for records and testimony concerning two separate investigations into alleged securities fraud involving Sedona Software Solutions Inc. and SHEP Technologies Inc., both of Vancouver, Canada, and HiEnergy Technologies Inc., of Irvine, California.


LOM and Mr. Lines contend that the United States does not have jurisdiction over them and that they are prohibited from disclosing some of the information being sought due to secrecy provisions of laws in Bermuda, the Bahamas and the Cayman Islands, where LOM has offices.
As part of an attempt to establish that LOM has sufficient ties to the United States to meet jurisdictional requirements, Ungar claimed that LOM executed substantial volumes of trades with the US operations of vFinance Investments Inc., Schwab Capital Markets LLC, and Sterne, Agee Capital Markets and also did business with CIBC Mellon Securities Trust Company, in New York.



"The volume of LOM's US trading, whether on behalf of its customers or its own accounts, is staggering," stated Mr. Ungar. "For example, in LOM's account at Schwab, during a two-week period in 2003 ? the same year in which the SHEP and Sedona transactions in question occurred ? LOM bought or sold, on over 4,000 different occasions, a total of 151 million shares of US securities traded over various US securities markets."

The trader at Florida-based vFinance who was in charge of LOM's account testified that "LOM's trading over the US markets was more than the trading of most US regional banks" and that he "either accumulated or liquidated millions of shares a day for them", stated Mr. Ungar.
In arguing that it was prohibited by offshore secrecy laws from disclosing certain information to the SEC, LOM had submitted declarations from attorneys Paul Smith, of Conyers, Dill & Pearman, in Bermuda; Michael Paton, of Lennox Paton, in the Bahamas; and Richard Fear, of Charles Adams, Ritchie & Duckworth, in the Cayman Islands.
