"Congress shall make no law RESPECTING AN ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION, or PROHIBITING THE FREE EXERCISE thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESPECTING AN ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION - Means that the government cannot recognize any church as the official government church, nor can it found, fund, or support any denomination/church. That doesn't mean that everyone and everything in government has to remain secular, and that the government officials cannot use their beliefs in their actions. This means also that religious symbols in/on/around government property are NOT illegal. The buildings in DC and various state capitols have Biblical scenes, symbols, and verses engraved on them. You going to go chisel them off?
I could argue that the Masonic symbol, which is on many publicly funded buildings, and on signs stating the names of various towns across the country, is a religious symbol. Nobody would try to remove that, but if it were a Christian Fish, or the Cross, someone would scream until it got taken down.
PROHIBITING THE FREE EXERCISE - The government cannot keep you from praying, worshiping, or any other action of your religious beliefs, provided they don't break any laws. This means you CAN pray in schools. Congressional sessions start with prayer to Yahweh, the God of Christians and Jews. People are sworn in on what? The Bible. How anyone gets away with saying anything about "separation of church and state" existing in the Constitution is beyond me.
That doesn't imply that the National/State/Local governments, nor those who make them up have to keep religion out of their discussions, and daily actions

Ah, eBooks and information salesmen on eBay make a killing and usually sell information that can be Googled up for free. The sad thing is that many people buy into it all. I once did, but have figured out that Google can find just about anything. So, coming from my private collection of strange informational files, are the below...I am not responsible for anything stupid or illegal you may do. Knowledge is power though, so we should at least learn what we can. Some of this is quite dated, so take that into consideration.
"Master Wholesale Websites" (PDF)
"Secret Wholesale Sources" (DOC)
"eBay's Secret Wholesale Sources (DOC)
"Lumenlab DIY LCD Projector Plans" (PDF)
Projector Plans (Dead Website on Archive.org)
100 Inch Projector TV Plans (PDF) "Info From eBay - (ZIP) In this zip file, you will find a lot of information, and one of the documents tells you how to commit mail fraud to get free stuff. This is highly illegal, as well as stupid. Don't do it, I am not responsible for your stupidity if you commit it, or perform anything else illegal that could be inside these files. DSS Stuff - zip file ... This zip has some documents detailing satellite TV. Again, this is info purposes only stuff, and you shouldn't do it. If you do try this, it isn't my fault when you get arrested.
More of this type of stuff (and newer, at that!) can be found at Floodle.

I am using the Joomla Page Cache component coupled with APC, however I don't have the Page Cache module itself using APC (although it can), instead it uses the database. I am allowing APC to cache PHP scripts own its own, and this seems to be faster than having the component manage APC, at least in my situation (using Dreamhost). The only time a page may hang is when APC and/or Page Cache haven't cached something on the page yet. Please be patient, as the majority of pages will load in no time! I have to thank mousee of the Dreamhost forums, whose site is here (free plug for the help).
One thing: I would appreciate it if you could post your load time (or if you think page loading was fast or slow, if you don't have a load time clock) in the comments below this post. Thanks, and happy browsing!

I talk about SEO, Internet Marketing, and other such tactics around here all the time, but purposely never offer all the pieces to the plan so that you develop strategies and techniques on your own for better success. If you'd rather just have a system that's set out for you that works, I suggest the Google Money Tree. They'll tell you all about it before you actually buy it, but you have to request the info. Upon request, you'll get a nice kit that tells you everything you need to know about making big bank off of Google.
This setup will help you go from poor to rich with a lot less effort than climbing up the corporate ladder or flipping burgers.
