    Wartime victim makes heartfelt plea for redress
    Korean woman visits the Southland to build support for a House resolution urging Japan to apologize for sexual slavery in World War II.
    http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-beliefs21jul21,1,1188885.story?ctrack=1&cset=true
    By K. Connie Kang, Times Staff Writer
    July 21, 2007

    Carefully walking up to the podium, Yong-Soo Lee, a former sex slave for the Japanese Imperial Army in World War II, faced American church leaders at Wilshire Presbyterian Church.

    She bowed deeply to pay her respects.

    Then Lee, immaculate in white Korean attire of ramie, gave a capsule testimony of her abduction during the war, when she was 16, and the unspeakable pain and degradation she suffered.

    More than 100 Presbyterian pastors, elders and other church officials attending the July 14 meeting in Los Angeles of the Pacific Presbytery listened with rapt attention. The presbytery is a regional governing body of the 2.3-million-member Presbyterian Church (USA). (more…)

    What happened before May 24th was reprisal. Administrative reprisal.

  • BlueHost growth

    BlueHost is growing very fast, and part of that are periodic mass downtimes of various servers, including the PHP5 Box 150. As gleaned from the Excel Sheet below, BlueHost has been growing on an average rate of 400 domains a day. It’s kept this pace more or less since September of 2005, which is when it started publishing hosted domain names. (Past data was obtained from archive.org)

    With its 300,000 domains as advertised on its front page, BlueHost may be making as much as $2m a month. Or possibly less, if most accounts happen to use the multiple add-on option, and BlueHost counts this as “another domain”. Matt, do the numbers of 300,000 correspond to domains (including add-ons) or accounts?
