Alas, there's a 32 word limit on exclusions. You won't believe how many golfers, sports-teams (in sooo many codes), Sri Lankan rebels, AppleOperating Systems, Airlines, Beers, Songs, Criminal organisations etc... that include 'tiger' in the name :( Aah, good thinking Stephen.

No wonder he knew so much about the internal workings of the National Party - he must have been present at it's inception!

Hey David, are you sure it isn't a return of the practical joke you once played by issuing a press release advising the world that someone inportant had died? Revenge from beyond the grave perhaps. “Rumours of my demise are greatly exaggerated” sayeth the ubiquitous Mr Farrar.

Listen to a radio interview last week ( internet ) where it was stated that google were going to handle every medical file on US citizens. Why would they do this ? Because they know more about you then your doctor does. It seems google has also signed up their services to the CDC which is involved in the control of diseases (i.e Swine flue). For example every time someone does a google search on flue symptoms their I.P address is red flagged and recorded in case their is an outbreak in their area. Now this may sound great but they have also signed up to departments that may not have your best interests at heart. Example, FBI, anyone typing in explosives will have their IP address red flagged. Be afraid folks, be very afraid big google is watching and they enjoy their work, they get well paid for it. I wouldn’t joke to much about being on a google alert.

So, is there any way to set up the alerts to exclude some stories?- e.g. I want stories on tigers (animal) but not stories on the Tamil Tigers or the 500 sports teams on the planet with 'tigers' in their title.

All the evidence points to you as both victim and killer. Clearly, it was a suicide. It was your fixation with Styrofoam that gave you away. Although you are dead, I emplore to give yourself up before you kill any more of your kind. You’ve been fingered David. All the evidence points to you as both victim and killer.
