Plagiarizing on Three Blogs?

How do these people have the time to actually run a bed and breakfast and do all the things they say they do and also publish three blogs at once, each one of them plagiarizing from others? Fish Creek House, please, STOP THE MADNESS!

First they plagiarize someone's entire post about coffee, already mentioned here at Fish Creek House Watch on their blogger blog. Looks like the same day they decided they just had to keep the same opening paragraph, and rewrite the rest of the post for their Wordpress blog:


With coffee being the #1 drink in much of the world, there has to be an awful lot of coffee grounds out there going into the trash. What do you do with yours? From Badgetts’s Coffee Journal (www.aboutcoffee.net) a web site dedicated to all things coffee, comes some amazing and very handy tips.Most people know that coffee grounds and used filters make for excellent composting. The grounds release nitrogen into the soil which is highly beneficial but there are many, many other options for grounds too in other applications such as beauty products, household use and crafting ideas.

Although they took down the post from one blog, there it is, still on another, with one paragraph still perfectly intact. And perfectly plagiarizing someone else. Grounds for Good Living. Cate O'Malley and Kate Selner, we hope you are complaining to these people!

Turkey Day Cheat Sheet

Fish Creek House can't come up with their own guidelines of how to prepare for Thanksgiving, so they have to "borrow" from somewhere else. Their turkey tips (posted Nov 17, 2007):

and they've cross posted here: http://fishcreekhouse.blogspot.com/2007/11/turkey-day-cheat-sheet.html

Which they've taken the turkey tips from: http://www.idealbite.com/tiplibrary/archives/green_gobble_gobble.


When the Pilgrims sat down to dinner that first Thanksgiving, their turkey wasn’t a swollen illustration of agricultural practices gone bad. Purchasing a pasture-raised, organic turkey this Thanksgiving will give you the true natural flavors of the holiday.
