This subdomain inherits the reputation of blogspot.com

(What is this?)

HELP

When a subdomain does not have enough reliable ratings, it inherits the reputation of its parent domain. For example, if the parent domain's reputation is poor, it affects the subdomain's reputation as well until the subdomain has enough ratings of its own.This is common for shared domains, such as blogspot , where a large number of websites are hosted under the same domain name. To learn more, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subdomain

  • The record of the Russian unions, like their counterparts across the world, ensures that they will do nothing to oppose the layoffs and instead work to prevent the mobilisation of the Togliatti workforce in a defence of jobs and wages.
  • The major downturn in car sales in Russia and internationally is being used by AvtoVAZ—with the full backing of the Russian government and its Western transnational partners—to push through longstanding plans to “rationalise” the company through mass redundancies and plant closures.

  • But he was very persistent, and confident that if I went to Ecuador and saw for myself, I’d have to make the movie. I went, and the moment I saw the pollution, over an area the size of Rhode Island, I was horrified, and embarrassed to be an American, if an American oil company had anything to do with this. In addition to the pollution, it felt like there was a cultural genocide going on.

  • The social power, i.e. the multiplied productive force, which arise through the co-operation of different individuals as it is determined by the division of labor, appears to these individuals, since their co-operation is not voluntary but has come about naturally, not as their own united power, but as an alien force existing outside them, of the origin and goal of which they are ignorant, which they thus cannot control, which on the contrary passes through a peculiar series of phases and stages independent of the will and the action of man, nay even being the prime governor of these,”
  • There is something happening, but we are not sure what. We connect, and others connect, and we engage, and we share, and we co-operate, and we produce, to what? What sort of production is this? The division of labor has grown into a division of cosmology, and one industry of cosmological progress cannot unify itself with the others.
