School Teacher quits over sex blog

Becky PelfreyBecky Pelfrey, a school teacher and blogger, had to resign after school officials found she used her class computer to access a personal Weblog chronicling sexual exploits and containing disparaging remarks about her students. Her blog featured links to sexually-oriented Web sites and comments about her students.

Officials were alerted to the situation by an anonymous letter. Becky Pelfrey's husband, Bill Pelfrey, claims his ex-wife wrote the letter but she denies the claim. The families are involved in a custody dispute.

Update: I have removed the references to Becky Pelfrey blog after I received an email from her saying:
The information on your blog is inaccurate and untrue. If you do not remove the incorrect information immediately, I will consider legal action. I was NOT fired from my job. The blog you are referencing was not the blog in question.
Beckey has even left a comment here (scroll down) saying she resigned after being harassed at work continually by Tanya Hanna and her husband.
My husband's ex-wife decided to lie to the media and my school and tell them I was updating a "sex blog" at school. Yes, I had a blog, and you found it. BUT...there was never sexual content on that site. They harassed the school board daily, and slandered my name in this small Mansfield town. Questionable links? Sure. But they weren't accessed from school.

A colleague of Becky Pelfrey for 3 years says she was a wonderful teacher and a good friend. Even teachers are human, think about what you have done lately and have not been caught.

How to Download Contacts from Facebook To Outlook Address Book

Facebook users are not too pleased with the "walled garden" approach of Facebook. The reason is simple - while you can easily import your Outlook address book and GMail contacts into Facebook, the reverse path is closed. There's no "official" way to export your Facebook friends email addresses or contact phone numbers out as a CSV file so that you can sync the contacts data with Outlook, GMail or your BlackBerry. Some third-party Facebook hacks like "Facebook Sync" (for Mac) and "Facebook Downloader" (for Windows) did allow you to download your Facebook friends' names, emails, mobile phone number and profile photo to the desktop but they were quickly removed for violation of Facebook Terms of Use. How to Download Contacts from Facebook There are still some options to take Friends data outside the walls of Facebook wall. Facebook offers the Takeout option allowing you to download all Facebook data locally to the disk (include

PhishTank Detects Phishing Websites by Digg Style Voting

OpenDNS, a free service that helps anyone surf the Internet faster with a simple DNS tweak , will announce PhishTank today. PhishTank is a free public database of phishing URLs where anyone can submit their phishes via email or through the website. The submissions are verified by the other community members who then vote for the suspected site. This is such a neat idea as sites can be categorized just based on user feedback without even having to manually verify each and every submission. PhishTank employs the "feedback loop" mechanism where users will be kept updated with the status' of the phish they submit either via email alerts or a personal RSS feed . Naturally, once the PhishTank databases grows, other sites can harness the data using open APIs which will remain free. OpenDNS would also use this data to improve their existing phishing detection algorithms which are already very impressive and efficient. PhishTank | PhishTank Blog [Thanks Allison] Related: Google
