More on why I don't have any money

Asking my readers for PayPal clicks is only a temporary fix. 
Finding out how the Church blocked ads here is the answer.
.

Moving this blog to  new place won't help as Google Adsense has blocked me everywhere, and Google now supplies the ads for just about every website.  So if I try to put ads on a new blog, they will not accept it.  As soon as I put in my social security number or email address, a notice comes up saying, this account has been blocked from Google Ad sense.

Then they direct me to a forum to find out why, and none of their FAQs have any answers as to what to do when the Catholic Church sabotages your blog.

Someone did something to my blog while I was at the SNAP conference in Chicago summer 2008, and since my pedophile priest case is in Chicago and I’d been blogging for a year and a half and causing a lot of trouble with the stories I was writing, and since there has been No Way to resolve this problem since, I can only conclude that the Chicago Archdiocese did something to my blog through my computer while I was at the SNAP conference in Chicago summer 2008. 

My laptop was in my hotel room several times while I was down in the conference area taking part in some SNAP presentation.  I did not realize until a few days later that my laptop must have been hacked during the conference.  “Someone” did "something" that got me blocked from ads with Google and if I start a blog Anywhere, I can't make money as all ads online everywhere now are done by Google. 

******

I was running ads and getting a monthly check from Google when in July 08, two days after the SNAP conference, all the ads disappeared from my blog.

I opened my laptop that day and the ads were just gone.

I tried to find out why and all I could ever get was a computerized message saying “illegal activity you are blocked until further notice” and then there was never any further notice.

I have tried over and over and I just can't get the ads back. And I can't put ads anywhere else.  If I start a new blog and try to “monetize,” I get the same notice, "Blocked due to illegal activity" and I can't find out what the illegal activity was.

The main way to make money with a blog - and I Would Be Making A Lot Now - is through clicks.  In 2014 I am getting thousands of clicks a week, and I should be getting a monthly check from Google and I can't figure out how to get it fixed. 

I'm not motivated to promote the blog as why should I?  I'll never be able to make any money from it, no matter how many clicks I get.

The Church succeeded in keeping me from being able to make a living off my blog and I have no idea how to fix it. I've been trying for years to find a human at Google and they only talk to advertisers who have at least five thousand dollars, you can't get through to any human being at Google.

The Chicago Archdiocese sabotaged my blog and my livelihood, I just can't prove it.

Asking my readers for money is not the answer, it's only a temporary fix. Finding out what the Church did to me through Google is the answer. Maybe I should try to go in person to Google corporate headquarters, because you can't get through to anyone by phone.  Or mail.

Actually it's quite a story. If I could ever find out what the church or "someone" did to me through Google Ad Sense, it would be a good story. 

So how do I find a human at Google who can fix this? 

Click my PayPal w/ High Fives Please

As CofA Blog carries on,

think of this as an appeal, 
like on NPR or PBS or...

In 2008 Google blocked ads on my blogs with no explanation, while I was at the SNAP conference in Chicago. That block is still active, who knows who was behind it. 

Now even though I get thousands of clicks a week here at City of Angels the only way I can make money from the blog is to ask readers directly for cash.  I also never got  a settlement from the Chicago Archdiocese, so this blog is really my only asset.

Now and then I have to hold a PayPal campaign to raise funds.

Basta! And Still Not Enough!

2 trips to Vatican since 2002

Still no communication with Pope 

So Birmingham victim makes documentary 

In a memorable segment of the film, Basta, Bernie McDaid tries to deliver a letter to a Vatican office. Dozens of other people enter as the Guards nod them in, but Bernie is left gesturing and pointing to papers in his hands. The caption reads “for 45 minutes, while negotiating, Bernie watches as people simply walk in.”  On screen the guards look like Punch and Judy dolls as they keep blocking Bernie from entering the building.  "Basta! No Pity, No Shame, No Silence" documents years of Vatican runaround experienced by two survivors of pedophile priest Joseph Birmingham of Boston trying to communicate with The Vatican about the extent of the pedophile priest crisis.  The film covers two trips to Rome in their effort to talk to a Pope. “At the second screening a survivor in his fifties stood up, talked about his life briefly, then mentioned for the first time in public that he was a survivor,” said Gary Bergeron

UN Everywhere Where?

While the world yawns, survivors hear crickets

I think what they accomplished at the UN yesterday, so twice this year, was amazing, yet not one mainstream paper has reported it with any significance and now the Pope is visiting the Middle East. Forget that the UN torture / clergy sex abuse announcement came out on the Friday before Memorial Day, it's astonishing that SNAP doesn't have every one of its local groups doing significant events locally to spread word about the UN committee decision yesterday.  I'm ready to mend fences, I emailed a couple L.A. SNAP people saying, why don't we do something to publicize this and I got . . . crickets, nothing, no one has anything planned, they say they haven't heard anything.

I am not Paranoid, they really are all Spies!

When I started CofA Blog in Jan 2007, I showed up out of nowhere and clerks in L.A. Superior Court helped me find my way around the maze of documents exposing crimes of the Cardinal and Archdiocese in the L.A. Clergy Cases.  I would copy type those documents and post them here at CofA 3.  Then along with other events, the file room closed and strange things began to happen in my life.

Beautiful Faces

(More back story found in old journals)

he judge said, let’s acknowledge the victims, and all in the court turned to the viewing area. Men who had been raped by pedophile priest Clinton Hagenbach from the 1960s to 1980s were in many of the seats, and as they rose a wave of pheromones and testosterone filled the room. They each emanated an internal rage, but also they shared a remarkable characteristic.  Beautiful angelic faces.   I had seen the phenomenon once before among pedophile priest survivors, at an event in 2006. They asked everyone in the room who had been molested by a priest to stand up, and again, it was a sea of angelic faces, all in different stages of aging, all showing different signs of damage, but still stunning and beautiful faces.

Why did you leave the ashram?

.

In Dallas in 1970 I ran the kitchen at a Yoga ashram. My title was House Mother. With the windows open I cooked up vegetarian meals for the 20-25 people who lived there, beginning around five in the AM packing lunches for the yogis who went off each day to their jobs.  The entire household got up at four AM to meditate each day and

Then realized I'm not paranoid
They really are all spies

From that time when docs exposing the L.A. Archdiocese were moved where no one could see them, things changed, and my life started to get weird. Three years later I felt like Dr. Sidney Schaefer in The President's Analyst (1967 film clipped in screen shots above) 

Now I'm finding a new way to tell this story at CofA 15

Belgian Church on the offensive against paedophile priests

BELGIUM
West
by Ivano Abbadessa
After the child sex abuse scandals in Belgium, the Catholic Church has taken a zero-tolerance line on paedophilia, which was recently reiterated by Pope Francis. Atonement, compensation and prevention are the guidelines of this new strategy that, according to the data, appears to be working. According to the report from the Belgian inter-diocesan Commission, 621 victims have reported the abuse to the Centre of Arbitration, which was active until 31 October 2012. A further 323 reports have been received in the past two years at 10 ‘contact points’, operational since January 2012, which the Catholic Church set up in the provinces of Belgium. Although 8% of these reports have not yet been fully processed, 125 victims of abuse by priests have already received financial compensation totalling about €1m. The document shows that 92% of victims were under 18 at the time of the abuse and 25% were under 10.

Abuse inquiry to examine Nestor case

AUSTRALIA
The Age

Paul Osborne, AAP Senior Political Writer
The royal commission into child abuse will examine the case of a former Catholic priest who once received a court reference from Tony Abbott.
John Gerard Nestor, 50, was a priest in the Wollongong diocese in NSW when he was charged with the indecent assault of a teenage altar boy.
In his 1997 court case, the priest admitted he had slept on mattresses on a floor with the boy and his younger brother in July 1991, but denied assaulting the boy.

When is a priest not a priest? When he's molesting a child, diocese says in defense of lawsuit

NEW JERSEY
The Star-Ledger
By Mark Mueller/The Star-Ledger
on June 02, 2014
Chris Naples says something snapped inside him that January day.
The Burlington County man sat in the gallery of the Delaware Supreme Court, watching as a lawyer for the Diocese of Trenton told the justices that the Rev. Terence McAlinden was not "on duty" — or serving in his capacity as a priest — when he allegedly molested Naples on trips to Delaware in the 1980s.

NJ diocese: We’re not liable, because molesting boys not part of priest’s official duties

NEW JERSEY
The Raw Story
By Travis Gettys
Monday, June 2, 2014
Lawyers claim the Diocese of Trenton, New Jersey, should not be held liable for sexual abuse allegedly committed by a priest because he wasn’t officially “on duty” when he molested a teenage boy.

Editorial: Crucial moment for Pope Francis to undo wrongs on clergy sex abuse

UNITED STATES
Daily Hampshire Gazette
As he takes on the issue of clergy sex abuse, Pope Francis must break with the past and move to resolve, once and for all, a scandal that has plagued the Catholic Church for years. The new pope will meet soon with a group of sex abuse victims at the Vatican and has said he will not tolerate any instance of a priest raping or molesting a child. Those are only words.
