Berto's Badass Blog

http://www.constellation7.org/Constellation-Seven/Josiah/Index.htm There is so much happening here, I just don't know where to start. Constellation7.org seeks to spread its message of religion and the interconnectivity of several different topics from UFOs to salvation, music to prophecy.  The authors of this website are trying to cover a lot of ground.   I am only including this one picture...for reasons that I hope are self-evident.  As the mouse scrolls across the page, things happen like graphics and text change.  The background also changes independently and there is some sort of music and/or speaking that plays. All of the buttons have a strange color scheme.  There are buttons and graphics that cover text as well.   Everything on this page seems to be crawling on top of itself, like a swarm of brightly colored ants. 

Burlington UFO and Paranormal Research and Educational Center   I want to believe...but maybe not that bad. I am a huge proponent of a good conspiracy theory and I truly believe that there is NO WAY that the life on this beautiful blue ball we call Earth, is the only life that exists in the whole universe. So, as far as subject matter goes...yeah, this all checks out. The Burlington UFO and Paranormal Reseach and Educational Center based out of Winslow, Illinois has dedicated itself to investigating UFOs along with their pilots and several other hard to explain things. I do not feel the need to hold off on the fact that I believe that this is just bad design and well...everything.  So...Let's do this. Starting with very nebulous and dated looking photos, whom we are forced to assume are the authors of the page, but it is never explicitly stated. There is no rhyme or reason to the links that are in various sections of the above photo.  I wonder if there...

ISKA: International Sport Kickboxing Association Fighters, protect yourselves at all times. Wait, what website?  For those of you who are not familiar with amateur combat sports, this may be a new site for you. ISKA  is a pretty cool organization that has helped to develop some of the most formidable kickboxers and mixed martial artist today. ISKA has two main divisions: Kickboxing and MMA. This site contains rules, weight classes, past and upcoming events, videos, etc. On a personal note, I have competed in some of these events and it was a ton of fun. So, I definitely have a personal bias...That I will have ZERO problems putting aside because the website needs some help. For starters, the website is 'iskasportmma.com'. Which does not really embody the main marketing of the organization as a whole, as the name of the organization is 'International Sport Kickboxing Association'.  Which stands to reason that Kickboxing is their business.  Now, I underst...

www. ARNGREN .net If you have ever needed to purchase a helicopter, motorcycle, and soccer equipment at the same time. I am not sure who this Arngren character is but I am going to assume that the face at the top left of the site is Arngren.   I can only imagine why Arngren decided to have a semi-professional sketch of their face to be the only black and white item on this site.  I am pretty sure this is exactly what happened when 6-year-old Berto's parents gave him a Sear's catalog and said: "What do you want for Christmas?".  Granted 'Batman' had a bigger representation in that letter to Santa than in this, but I think you get the point I am trying to make.   There is absolutely no order to the products on this page.  All of the links are in Technicolor. While I can clearly see that there are two separate flags at the top and can assume that there are speakers of different languages that are referring to this site.  I am not sur...

http://anselme.homestead.com/ How does the news work exactly? The Haitian News Network provides news and information to the citizens of Haiti. While I was unable to confirm this, but apparently HNN closely partners with the local News TV station.  The HNN suffers from a couple of issues that keep it from being Bad Ass .  It appears as though everything is button operated.   All of the buttons work which is great! Having multiple buttons that take the user to the same place is not so great. Two Facebook buttons, right next to each other does not make me want to visit their Facebook page twice as much. The twitter feed does seem pretty current, as does some of the information that is coming through on the random text blocks.  I am not entirely sure where all of that information is coming from. There are multiple links that lead to other news sites or radio stations across the world. This is a bad website. 

Ford.com First on race day, I don't care what anybody else says. Ford, focusing on automobiles since the very first mass-produced automobile was released, the Model T. Ironically, the Model T was created and produced by Henry Ford who founded and ran the very same Ford Motor Company that exists today.  While there have been many improvements to the automobile since Henry's time,  Ford Motors being responsible for many of them, the company remains intact and progressing.  Ford Motors has been synonymous with Americana for the last 100 years. In addition to producing the Ford Mustang, my favorite car of all time, Ford's website is Bad Ass because: Single push-button access to find one or multiple products.  Every link functions. Every photo is linked to more content about the photo's subject matter. Functional and ever-present menu, navigation bar.   Organized content, that is appropriate to what is being discussed in the respective page. ...
