If you got to google and execute: http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=de&newwindow=1&q=%2B%22Ada+programming%22&btnG=Suche&lr=lang_de%7Clang_en you get 220.000 pages. Note the use of +"Ada programming" - without the + and the " it would be a lot more. I think adding: to every Ada related page would do the trick.
