schestowitz"The only case I remember is when the US considered to support the ones advocating for a thousand years of peace in Europe, you might remember them, the ones that said something like “work will free you”. At the end preferred to support Russia, wonder if the US regrets it."Oct 04 06:25

schestowitzOne of the saddest aspect of the NWO (fascism) is the death of irony - here the Mosely supporters becoming champions of gay rights?Oct 04 06:34
schestowitzThere is a thing about democracy which the we-know-better crowd forget - the government is supposed to represent popular opinion - in the so-called freeest and most democratic country, both gays and black-africans had to fight for their rights and get thir message across - the same in UK - where upto the 1967 (!!!) homosexuality was illegal. In Russia it became legal in 1993.Oct 04 06:34
schestowitzBut what about democracy?Oct 04 06:34
schestowitz    Russia is socially conservative on LGBT rights, with 2013 polls indicating a large majority of Russians oppose legal recognition of same-sex marriage and support laws discriminating against LGBT people.Oct 04 06:34

schestowitzNow if Putin were a dictator…Oct 04 06:34
schestowitzEven though LGBT was legal in the UK since 1967, it has been a long march to get public opinion to become more tolerant and develop a better understanding of these issues.Oct 04 06:34
schestowitzSo it is Russia - and elsewhere.Oct 04 06:34
schestowitzIt would be interesting to see how helpful - or otherwise - the DM was in bringing out a more tolerant and understanding attitude to LGBT issues in the UK. :DOct 04 06:34

schestowitzAndrew is correct in pointing out that the title, which is missing from the PDF, is being derived based on either anchor text (the text used where linking to the PDF, or if many such links exist, something that takes them all into account) or section/text weight (e.g. headline).Oct 09 19:42
schestowitzGoogle attempts to show how the text relates to the search query. If you are optimising for this one particular search phrase ("xxxxxxxxxxxxx" in this case), then the results may show some bits of text you don't desire to be shown. It's an SEO problem. Google prioritises the user/searcher (or customer) over the publisher, so the excerpts of text are optimised to highlight relevance rather than describe the retrieved document in very generalOct 09 19:42

schestowitzTo make the title more meaningful/relevant it would help to edit the PDF and add some metadata to it. This still does not assure that Google will not find a better description for it, based on the context in which it is cited. It's designed to alleviate/eliminate opportunities for gaming Google's algorithm (spam/blackhat SEO).

schestowitzAndrew is correct in pointing out that the title, which is missing from the PDF, is being derived based on either anchor text (the text used where linking to the PDF, or if many such links exist, something that takes them all into account) or section/text weight (e.g. headline).Oct 09 19:42
schestowitzGoogle attempts to show how the text relates to the search query. If you are optimising for this one particular search phrase ("xxxxxxxxxxxxx" in this case), then the results may show some bits of text you don't desire to be shown. It's an SEO problem. Google prioritises the user/searcher (or customer) over the publisher, so the excerpts of text are optimised to highlight relevance rather than describe the retrieved document in very generalOct 09 19:42

schestowitzTo make the title more meaningful/relevant it would help to edit the PDF and add some metadata to it. This still does not assure that Google will not find a better description for it, based on the context in which it is cited. It's designed to alleviate/eliminate opportunities for gaming Google's algorithm (spam/blackhat SEO).
