Why a Lack of Openness Sullies the Integrity of Google?s Ad Auctions
2008-06-10 00:00:00 -By Scott Cleland Does Google warrant the current exceptional leap-of-faith in the integrity of its dominant ad auction model, given its near total lack of openness, transparency, independent auditability or third party oversight? There is a growing body of evidence that Google does not. The New York Times article today by Miguel Helft, “The Human Hands ...

INTEGRITY IS NOT A SOMETIMES THING
2008-04-15 15:55:00 Today is Tuesday, so this post is on positive personal impact.ecently, I’ve been posting about the importance of integrity as a cornerstone of your personal brand. Over the weekend, we all (at least those of us who are interested in golf) got to see a young man who personified integrity.Michael Thompson is a senior at The University of Alabama. He is also a good golfer – good enough to get invited to compete in The Masters as an amateur. If you’re not familiar with golf, The Masters is one of golf’s four major tournaments. Many think that it is the premier golf tournament in the world. Big golf tournaments are contested over a four day period. There is a cut after the first two rounds. For Mr. Thompson, making the cut as an amateur would have been a huge accomplishment. He was putting for a birdie on the 15th hole. If he sank that putt, he would have stood and excellent chance of making the cut. Howe...

An Island of Integrity
2008-03-24 19:19:00 After my mea culpa regarding the JFK assassination, I was drawn to reflect on the 5 year anniversary of the invasion of Iraq, presaging Easter and the 4,000th American military death there. There were few mea culpas uttered by supporters of the war on these occasions, those hard-edged realists, those visionary romantics, those brass-balled statesmen. Those war criminals. Asked for a reaction to the fact that two / thirds of the American people consider the war to have been a mistake, Vice-President Cheney reflected, and I quote, "So?" Honestly, you have to respect a guy like that, who does not even bother to insult your intelligence by pretending he gives a shit. It really is rather refreshing. There was one mea culpa penned for the occasion by Andrew Sullivan, quoted below, which I commend for its probity and its honesty, both of which must have come at no small psychological price. I was right about Iraq; I wish I had been wrong. Sullivan was wrong, and he acknowledges thi...

2008-03-19 22:40:00 One pleaded damage, the other argued integrity - Singapore Inside peek at the arguments that raged between Allco Reit, Moody’s By MICHELLE QUAH (SINGAPORE) Allco Commercial Real Estate Investment Trust (Allco Reit) fought hard against a credit ratings downgrade by Moody’s Investors Service because it believed the downgrade would cause it ‘irreparable damage’. But Moody’s stuck to its guns as it felt its very integrity - as well as that of the market - was at stake. Both sides presented impassioned arguments - till now unknown to the public - before the High Court earlier this month. The battle raged in chambers, away from the eyes of the media and members of the public. The Business Times managed to get an inside look into the case, by inspecting documents filed with the High Court. The case had made headlines yesterday when it became known that Allco Reit had taken legal action to prevent Moody’s from downgrading its credit ratings. Little else w...

Democrats Continue to Choose Nader over Election Integrity
2008-02-28 06:42:00 Oh no, that evil consumer advocate Ralph Nader just entered the Presidential race! You know who he is....the only politician in America that's running because of his or her ego because we all know Obama, McCain, and even Hillary Clinton don't have an ego...Time for a snap back into reality Democrats.First let's debunk the myth that Democrats have been perpetuating since 2000 that Nader "spoiled" the 2000 election for Al Gore and "handed" it to George W. Bush. It's simple and it goes like this...Every American citizen has the right to run for President, and no candidate is ever entitled to your vote. So the question remains... Why did 97,000 voters in Florida decide to vote for Nader? We don't know, but I can probably bank on the fact that they agreed with Nader more than Gore or Bush. So now that we've established that fact we can also establish that the Democrats were advocating for voters to vote AGAINST their principles. Some Democrats even blame Nader for every bad thi...

2008-02-25 17:45:00 By STEVE BERLINFeatured BloggerThe movement to make Steve Berlin - who has agreed to make mental health a priority in his administration - as the nation's next vice president got a boost recently when popular singer-songwriter Tim Butler endorsed Berlin's candidacy.Butler, speaking from his home in Glenside, Pa., said Berlin is a great choice for the nation's second-banana slot because of his brains, honesty and integrity, among other reasons."The people need their public servants to be selfless, and Steve Berlin is the most selfless person I know," Butler, said. "In fact, he's so selfless, sometimes you forget he's even there, and that's what we need in a vice president."Butler has been performing in the Middle Atlantic states for years as a solo performer and previously with the band Hoppers 13. He expects to release another solo CD in 2008. His music can be found at www.myspace.com/timbutler and www.timbutlermusic.com.Berlin welcomed the endorsement and looked to Butler's ...
