IMHO can not exceed the effectiveness of search engine optimization online advertising business internet marketing. If you are looking for the best internet marketing online advertising. Here are some reasons why you made those statements daring.
First, using the search engine optimization or SEO as a marketing campaign that can offer a high quality visitor. This is a type of traffic that is looking for an answer to your question, write a specific keyword leads them to a website that are relevant to the question while the search type in the search engine. In order to optimize your Internet marketing business web site with certain keywords, the keywords should be used in particular as the main keywords of your blog or website content.
But be careful in the use of primary keywords as the main engine especially Google to penalize sites or blogs that spam keywords for your content.
Use keywords as natural as possible, without sacrificing or make your content does not bode well. As a point of key terms related to the use and additional keyword search engine considered particularly Google to reward you for your use. As a general rule, use the keywords with high search volume with a contest websites under.
Second, the search engine traffic offers free traffic as searchee information is being sought, while the search engine provided the information you need. With this system, you do not have to pay for pay per click advertising. With this system, which will provide a lasting source of traffic because once they reach their senior web sites search engine, it is possible that your website will stay there for a long period of time.
This technique is a technique that is still horrible as it looks so complicated, especially if you are a beginner. To be honest, this article is a perfect example of highly optimized article, if you notice that I used my main keywords, which is in internet marketing online in the title of the article and also in the first sentence of that article and, of course, at the end of this article. But the truth is I?m not sure if it will rank high in the ranking of the Google page, as there are 71,700,000 websites competing for this keyword.
To be a successful internet marketer needs a lot of skills to promote their internet marketing products, these skills appear to be overwhelming, especially if you are a beginner, but you do not have to worry about time. You will learn more about the business of Internet marketing different technique online, a patient at the time to come and will certainly be the time they are willing to make sacrifices and to learn and apply the best marketing Internet advertising online that work for your business.

?We?ll look at a circumstance where someone is ill and hasn?t been insured so far,? Romney said, ?but people who have the chance to be insured ? if you are working in the auto business, for instance, the companies carry insurance, they insure their employees, you look at the circumstances that exist ? but people who have done their best to get insured are going to be able to be covered.?
...
Now, I don't know what the Mittster knows about the auto industry but having been on the business end of it for 40 years, I can tell you this. If you're not working for a dealership, odds are you ain't getting health insurance through your boss. Most independent shops with a handful of employees can't even afford the most basic insurance plans.
...
?If they are 45 years old and they show up and say, ?I want insurance because I have heart disease,? it?s like, ?Hey guys. We can?t play the game like that. You?ve got to get insurance when you are well and then if you get ill, you are going to be covered,?? Romney said.
...
So, some poor schmuck who's been working for minimum wage for all his life, maybe two or three jobs at a time, who's never been offered health benefits through his employer and who certainly can't afford to get it on his own, is just shit out of luck? Is that right, Mitt? Is that what you're telling 30 million people? That they can just up and die because well ... fuck them, they should have been born into money?

Stir lots of small particles into water, and the resulting thick mixture appears highly viscous. When this dense suspension slips through a nozzle and forms a droplet, however, its behavior momentarily reveals a decidedly non-viscous side. University of Chicago physicists recorded this surprising behavior in laboratory experiments using high-speed photography that can capture action taking place in one hundred-thousandths of a second or less.
UChicago graduate student Marc Miskin and Heinrich Jaeger, the William J. Friedman and Alicia Townsend Friedman Professor in Physics, expected that the dense suspensions in their experiments would behave strictly like viscous liquids, which tend to flow less freely than non-viscous liquids. Viscosity certainly does matter as the particle-laden liquid begins to exit the nozzle, but not at the moment where the drop's thinning neck breaks in two.
New behavior appears to arise from feedback between the tendencies of the liquid and what the particles within the liquid can allow. "While the liquid deforms and becomes thinner and thinner at a certain spot, the particles also have to move with that liquid. They are trapped inside the liquid," Jaeger explained. As deformation continues, the particles get in each other's way.
"Oil, honey, also would form a long thread, and this thread would become thinner and break in a way characteristic of a viscous liquid," Jaeger said. "The particles in a dense suspension conspire to interact with the liquid in a way that, when it's all said and done, a neck forms that shows signs of a split personality: It thins in a non-viscous fashion, like water, all the while exhibiting a shape more resembling that of its viscous cousins."
It took Miskin and Jaeger six months to become convinced that the viscosity of the suspending liquid was a minor player in their experiments. "It is a somewhat heretical view that this viscosity should not matter," Jaeger said. "Who would have thought that?"
Miskin and Jaeger presented their results in the March 5 online early edition and the March 20 print edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
In their experiments, Miskin and Jaeger compared a variety of pure liquids to mixtures in which particles occupy more than half the volume.
"The results indicate that what we know about drop breakup from pure liquids does not allow us to predict phenomena observed in their experiments," said Jeffrey Morris, professor of chemical engineering at City College of New York. "The most striking and interesting result is the fact that, despite these being very viscous mixtures, the viscosity plays little role in the way a drop forms."
Few studies have examined droplet formation in dense suspensions. As Morris noted, such work could greatly impact applications such as inkjet printing, combustion of slurries involving coal in oil, and the drop-by-drop deposition of cells in DNA microarrays.
Scientific Defiance
In these applications particles often are so densely packed that their behavior defies a simple scientific description, one that might only take into account average particle size and the fraction of the liquid that the particles occupy, Morris explained. The UChicago study showed that particles cause deformations and often protrude through the liquid, rendering any such description incomplete until fundamental questions about the interface between a liquid mixture and its surroundings are properly addressed.
"Miskin and Jaeger provide arguments for the importance of these protrusions in their work and suggest that the issue is of broader relevance to any flow where a particle-laden liquid has an interface with another fluid," Morris said.
Miskin and Jaeger verified their results by systematically evaluating different viscosities, particle sizes and suspending liquids, and developed a mathematical model to explain how the droplet necks evolve over time until they break apart.
One initially counter-intuitive prediction of this model was that larger particles should produce behavior resembling that in pure water without any particles. "If you want to make it behave more like a pure non-viscous liquid, you want to make the particles large," said Jaeger, who finds himself intrigued by nature's seemingly endless store of surprises.
Miskin and Jaeger indeed observed this when the particle size approached a significant fraction of the nozzle diameter, making the particles visible to the naked eye.
"You think you have a pretty good idea of what should happen, and instead there's a surprise at every corner. Honestly, finding surprises is what I love about this work," Jaeger said.

When you start to learn about NLP (neuro-linguistic programming), you will immediately notice that there are a lot of courses available for you to help become familiar with all of the different elements that NLP involves. NLP training is essentially a list of ingredients that you can use in your life to make yourself more aware of how you are influencing the situations that you encounter and how you feel about them.
What Will You Miss with a Cheap NLP Training Course?
When you buy a cheap NLP training course, you may not find all of the information that you need. Often, you will be directed to a course that is less expensive than others that you will find, but you will have to buy another program and another program before you will be given the full list of techniques and details that you can use to transform your life.
Consider How Much NLP will be Worth to You
Before you choose an NLP program, you should think of how much you can reasonably spend on a program that can transform your life.
If you become successful and learn how to establish better relationships with the people around you, the course may be invaluable for you. However, if you are on a limited budget, you may need to find a course that is less than $100 so that you can learn the basics and begin applying the techniques.
Begin Using the Techniques Immediately with an Online Course
When you spend money on a course, you want to know that you are going to see results, and that?s exactly what this type of program offers.
NLP training is based on the way that your mind works to bring about certain events in your life.
How does the Law of Attraction Relate to NLP?
The Law of Attraction is at play in NLP, but NLP is more scientific in its approach to explaining how to program your mind to bring about the events that you want. The Law of Attraction is simply the belief that what you focus on the most, you will manifest in your life. NLP attempts to explain this by examining how programming the language of your mind can affect how you ultimately experience things in your life.
How to Find NLP Training Online that Offers All of the Information that You Need
A cheap online training course may provide you with a basic understanding of NLP techniques online, but it may not fully allow you to understand all of the principles that you need to know in order to effectively transform your life.
If you want to find a good NLP training course, you can find very affordable courses online. These online courses provide value to you because you can learn about NLP at your convenience.

Are there ways in which the Constitution isn't the inerrant guidelight we were taught to think of it as in secondary school? That is, what about airplane security?
But I am thinking specifically about health care. As Glenn Beck so notably argued, "The Constitution doesn't guarantee health care as a fundamental right."
Right. But it has become awfully important to us as Americans and as human beings. And, damn it, they get it as a basic right in other countries! Are they better off than we are because they don't have a Constitution?
Having introduced that question, I'll now leave it for Constitutional scholars to ponder.
But what I'm really thinking about is how we argue the entire heath care debate in terms of personal choices (which may be violated by a mandate to purchase insurance), the rights of businesses and free enterprise (as in, let insurance companies compete to make us the best offers from which to choose our health plans), and a kind of you're-on-your-own, personal freedom philosophy that our founding fathers thought in terms of, but which now seems largely to benefit some very rich and powerful people who control much of all of our lives.
Which leaves us -- where? As a nation, wanting more secure access to our wonderful doctors for ourselves and our children, anxious about how we can afford insurance (or, as seniors, which I am, about how much Medicare covers). Quite understandably, we want more coverage, and to pay no more (please God, maybe even less?) for it.
But personal health care costs continue to rise sharply for everyone, more so than they do in those countries without Constitutions.
As one example of an alternative universe, consider New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman's recent description of health care in Australia and New Zealand: "Conservatives in Australia and New Zealand have also long accepted single-payer national health care systems." Friedman explains:
There are many reasons for the narrowness of the political spectrum here, Johansson added. Neither New Zealand nor Australia are strong churchgoing countries, so social issues don't resonate as much. Both being isolated, sparsely populated, pioneering communities -- New Zealand has only 4.5 million people -- they have strong egalitarian traditions and believe the state has a role to play in making sure everyone gets a fair shake.
"We also have compulsory voting," said Turnbull [Malcolm Turnbull, former leader of Australia's main conservative party]. You get fined if you don't vote. "In a voluntary voting system like yours, there is always the temptation to run hard on hot-button issues that will fire up the base and get them out to vote. In a compulsory voting system, your base has to vote -- as does everyone else -- and so the goal is to target the middle ground."
Wait a second -- doesn't that last bit violate the Constitution?
We're in a sad situation, our American lot, many of us a bad illness or an accident or a denial by an insurance company away from losing our precarious balance in life.
And is this all written in the Constitution?

Funding will increase public digital access to natural history illustrations
(ST. LOUIS): The Missouri Botanical Garden has been awarded a $260,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) for "The Art of Life," an initiative to identify and describe natural history illustrations from the digitized books and journals in the Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL), available online www.biodiversitylibrary.org. BHL technical staff at the Missouri Botanical Garden will develop software tools for automated identification and description of visual resources contained within the more than 100,000 volumes and 38 million pages of core historic literature made publicly available through BHL digitization activities.
"This is an important step forward for our projects in that, for the first time, they are being recognized and described as humanities materials documenting the history of science," said Chris Freeland, director of the Center for Biodiversity Informatics at the Missouri Botanical Garden and technical director of the Biodiversity Heritage Library.
The Biodiversity Heritage Library's digitized texts contain millions of visual resources, including illustrations, plates, figures, maps and other images, many of which were produced by the finest botanical and zoological illustrators in the world, including John James Audubon, Georg Dionysus Ehret and Pierre Redout. Currently, individuals browsing the BHL website can only navigate the Library's online images by knowing the page of the book or journal where it appears. The images lack sufficient metadata, or descriptive information about its content, to allow dynamic searching and filtering by the image's type, color content, subject matter or even names of the organisms it depicts. In other words, to find an image, illustration or other visual resource, you have to know what you are looking for.
Biodiversity Heritage Library staff currently manually mange its natural history illustrations via the organization's Flickr page, www.flickr.com/photos/biodivlibrary. Funding from the NEH will allow the BHL technical staff at the Missouri Botanical Garden to build new software tools and augment existing electronic publishing frameworks that will automatically identify the images, illustrations and other visual resources contained in the Library's millions of pages of scanned, online works. The newly identified images will be available for searching within the BHL website and also copied to Flickr, where a large community of users has already begun tagging and annotating the manually identified images. By making these visual resources easily searchable through multiple access points, project organizers hope they not only become more useful to the current audience of scholars who regularly consult the BHL, but also discoverable by new audiences and better interconnected with related materials across the web, including the Encyclopedia of Life, for which the BHL serves as the foundational literature component.
"Biologists, art historians, curators and other scholars and educators who rely heavily on visual resources in their research and teaching will now be able to find and view a wealth of illustrations of plant and animal life from which to make connections between science, art, culture and history," said Freeland.

The Biodiversity Heritage Library is a consortium of major natural history museum libraries, botanical libraries and research institutions that cooperate to digitize and make the legacy literature of biodiversity held in their collections available for open access. The participating libraries have over two million volumes of biodiversity literature collected over 200 years to support the work of scientists, researchers and students in their home institutions and throughout the world.
The Missouri Botanical Garden has a mission "to discover and share knowledge about plants and their environment in order to preserve and enrich life." The Peter H. Raven Library at the Missouri Botanical Garden is globally recognized as one of the most comprehensive libraries of botanical literature in the world, containing more than 200,000 monographs and journals and 6,000 volumes of rare books, including many with full-size plant illustrations important to botanical, horticultural and natural history sciences. To date, the Garden's staff has digitized more than 3,300 volumes of its volumes (over 1.5 million pages) and made them freely available online via the BHL.

Funding will increase public digital access to natural history illustrations
(ST. LOUIS): The Missouri Botanical Garden has been awarded a $260,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) for "The Art of Life," an initiative to identify and describe natural history illustrations from the digitized books and journals in the Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL), available online www.biodiversitylibrary.org. BHL technical staff at the Missouri Botanical Garden will develop software tools for automated identification and description of visual resources contained within the more than 100,000 volumes and 38 million pages of core historic literature made publicly available through BHL digitization activities.
"This is an important step forward for our projects in that, for the first time, they are being recognized and described as humanities materials documenting the history of science," said Chris Freeland, director of the Center for Biodiversity Informatics at the Missouri Botanical Garden and technical director of the Biodiversity Heritage Library.
The Biodiversity Heritage Library's digitized texts contain millions of visual resources, including illustrations, plates, figures, maps and other images, many of which were produced by the finest botanical and zoological illustrators in the world, including John James Audubon, Georg Dionysus Ehret and Pierre Redout. Currently, individuals browsing the BHL website can only navigate the Library's online images by knowing the page of the book or journal where it appears. The images lack sufficient metadata, or descriptive information about its content, to allow dynamic searching and filtering by the image's type, color content, subject matter or even names of the organisms it depicts. In other words, to find an image, illustration or other visual resource, you have to know what you are looking for.
Biodiversity Heritage Library staff currently manually mange its natural history illustrations via the organization's Flickr page, www.flickr.com/photos/biodivlibrary. Funding from the NEH will allow the BHL technical staff at the Missouri Botanical Garden to build new software tools and augment existing electronic publishing frameworks that will automatically identify the images, illustrations and other visual resources contained in the Library's millions of pages of scanned, online works. The newly identified images will be available for searching within the BHL website and also copied to Flickr, where a large community of users has already begun tagging and annotating the manually identified images. By making these visual resources easily searchable through multiple access points, project organizers hope they not only become more useful to the current audience of scholars who regularly consult the BHL, but also discoverable by new audiences and better interconnected with related materials across the web, including the Encyclopedia of Life, for which the BHL serves as the foundational literature component.
"Biologists, art historians, curators and other scholars and educators who rely heavily on visual resources in their research and teaching will now be able to find and view a wealth of illustrations of plant and animal life from which to make connections between science, art, culture and history," said Freeland.

Enochs High School student Jordan Powers, 18, and James Hooker, 41, a teacher who resigned from the school talk about their relationship on Feb. 28.
A California lawmaker wants to make it a crime for a teacher to have a romance with a student, even the pupil is over 18.
Assemblywoman Kristin Olsen, a Republican from Modesto,?introduced on Tuesday Assembly Bill 1861, which would make it a felony for a teacher to have an inappropriate relationship with a student. Additionally, the bill seeks to strip teachers of their pensions, if?convicted of a work-related felony.
The bill is a response to the case of Modesto high school teacher James Hooker, 41, who resigned from his teaching position in February over his?relationship with student Jordan Powers,?now 18.
Hooker and Powers have defended their relationship, appearing on?national talk shows to claim?their romance did not turn sexual until Powers was of age. Hooker met Powers during her freshman year at Enochs High School. They now live together.

"It is an outrage that a high school teacher would engage in a romantic relationship with a student," said Olsen in a statement. "We need to do everything we can to deter this behavior, and to ensure schools are a safe and secure learning environment for our children."
The bill follows the lead of 23 other states by making it a felony for such relationships, according to Olsen's office.
Attempts?by msnbc.com to contact Olsen for comment?were unsuccessful on Tuesday.?
Currently in California, a teacher can only be charged with a felony for engaging in a relationship with a student who is under 18 years old. Bill 1861 applies to elementary, middle, and secondary schools.
The student's mother, Tammie Powers,?said she supported the bill and wanted to see similar legislation passed in every state. She appeared with Olsen in Sacramento during a press conference?to announce the bill.?
"As parents, we send our children to school with the expectation that they're going to be safe, they're going to receive a good education,"?Powers told The Sacramento Bee. "Not that they're going to be pursued."
The bill would not affect her daughter?s case, she said, which is still under investigation by the Modesto police.

President Barack Obama on Tuesday nominated Michael Huerta, acting administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), to become the official head of the agency.
?I am very pleased that President Obama has nominated him to lead the FAA as the next Administrator,? Ray LaHood, head of the Department of Transportation, the agency that oversees the FAA, said in a statement. ?Michael Huerta has stepped up to the plate and done an exemplary job in leading the largest and safest aviation system in the world."
Prior to taking over the post, Huerta was leading FAA?s NextGen effort that will transition the nation?s antiquated air traffic control system to a satellite-based system.
Huerta has been running the FAA since former chief Randy Babbitt resigned in December over charges of drunken driving.
The Senate must approve Huerta?s nomination before he is officially named FAA Administrator.
Federal Aviation Administration Chief Randy Babbitt resigned after being arrested over the weekend for driving while intoxicated in Virginia. NBC's Brian Williams reports.
'I'm happy and I'm single,' singer tells reporters at a press conference in London. By Jocelyn Vena
Rihanna Photo: Jon Furniss/ WireImage
Rihanna had been romantically linked to Ashton Kutcher last week, when a report surfaced that she had headed over to the actor's house late one night and stayed there for several hours.
At a London press conference for "Battleship," a reporter used her one question with the pop star to ask about the alleged rendezvous. After meandering around about Ri's fans and their love for her, she eventually got to her point: Would she get any visits from Kutcher while out promoting the film?
The singer's response? Well, she wasn't amused. "Wow, how disappointing was that question," she said in a video posted on the website. "I'm happy and I'm single, if that's what you're really asking."
While in London, the singer took some time to visit her pal Drake, who was in town performing at the O2 arena earlier this week. The singer was spotted riding the Tube to the show on Tuesday night. Wearing her hair blond and shaggy, she was decked out in thigh-high boots, a leather jacket and a flame-embossed T-shirt over barely there denim shorts. The only way she disguised herself was with a pair of sunglasses.
"There's so much traffic. It's approximately an hour and a half to the O2 every time. ... I hate waking up early and I'm always late, so the tube is like 10 minutes," she told interviewer Jonathan Ross recently about her love for public transportation. Post-show she and Drake headed to Low nightclub to hang out with pals.
Ri is currently out promoting the May release of "Battleship," but she recently shot a trio of music videos. Fans should keep a lookout for her clip with Drake for "Take Care," as well as videos for her collabo with Coldplay on "Princess of China" and her own video for "Where Have You Been."

WASHINGTON (AP) ? The new debt-slashing budget plan pushed by House Republicans heated up as a presidential campaign issue Sunday as the proposal's architect, Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, sparred with top Democrats over its political fallout and downplayed the possibility he could be tapped as a vice presidential candidate.
Senior White House adviser David Plouffe dismissed the GOP plan Sunday as "a lot of candy, not a lot of vegetables," and charged that it would be "rubber-stamped" as law if leading Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is elected.
"This is really the Romney-Ryan plan," Plouffe said, adding that its mix of across-the-board tax cuts and stiff budget cuts "showers huge tax cuts on millionaires and billionaires paid for by senior and veterans."
Ryan tried to tamp down speculation that he could be tapped for the No. 2 spot on the GOP ticket, although who will be the nominee is far from settled.
"I would have to consider it, but it's not something I'm even thinking about right now because right ? I think our job in Congress is pretty important," Ryan said. "And what we believe we owe the country is, if we don't like the direction the president is taking us, which we don't, we owe them a specific sharp contrast and a different path that they can select in November. And doing this in Congress is really important."
The House GOP debt-reduction plan, unveiled last week with minimal Democratic congressional support, is quickly sharpening as a line of division for the fall campaign, pitting GOP and tea party pressure for a reined-in budget against White House and Democratic party alarms about a weakened Medicare system and tax relief for the wealthy.
"This is a sharp, clear difference with two different futures," Ryan said. Despite growing signs that the U.S economy is struggling back to life, Ryan threw down a marker for the fall national election, saying that the GOP plan is the only alternative to a looming debt crisis versus Obama's "path of debt and decline."
The GOP proposal ? endorsed by Romney last week during a meeting with GOP congressional leaders ? would slice $5.3 trillion from President Barack Obama's budget over the coming decade through tax reforms and sweeping program cuts. The plan aims to shrink U.S. deficits by $3.1 trillion over the next decade, reducing tax burdens while cutting Medicaid payments and shifting oversight to states and sharply cutting other domestic programs.
House Budget Committee chairman Ryan, who authored a similar plan last year sunk by White House and Democratic congressional opposition, agreed that Romney backed his plan generally. But he said the former Massachusetts governor might not be in complete lockstep with his vision.
"I'm not expecting everyone to enact every little piece," Ryan said, adding that he expects Romney will back the plan's main planks.
Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., cautioned that his party would blunt the Ryan plan again as it did last year, also noting the election year "contrast with Democrats." He said Senate Democrats would offer up a rival tax reform plan on tax day, April 15, calling for increased taxes on wealthy Americans along the lines of the "Buffett Rule" acclaimed by billionaire Nebraska investor Warren Buffett.
"Let's be fair, you should pay more than your secretary," Schumer said, echoing Buffett's complaint that the current tax system allows the megarich to pay at lower tax rates than many of those who work for them.
Ryan and Plouffe spoke on "Fox News Sunday," while Ryan and Schumer went on CBS' "Face the Nation."

NEW YORK (AP) ? Current TV says it will launch a six-hour morning talk block next Monday.
Announced earlier this month, the morning slate will consist of live simulcasts of the radio programs "The Bill Press Show" and "The Stephanie Miller Show."
The TV version of Press' syndicated radio program will air weekdays from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. Eastern time. The TV simulcast of Miller's show will follow from 9 a.m. to noon Eastern time.
Press is a liberal commentator and a veteran of CNN's "Crossfire" and "The Spin Room." Miller is a liberal talk show host and comedian.
The left-leaning political TV network announced Tuesday that six top-of-the-hour news breaks beginning at 6 a.m. Eastern time will also start Monday.
These programs join Current's prime-time lineup anchored by "Countdown with Keith Olbermann."
Online marketing has quickly become an established market, and can be considered the forefront of advertising and marketing. The following tips can guide you to more dollars.
You normally do not want to mix pleasure and business, but in this instance, you may want to. If you think of your enterprise as a profitable hobby, there is significantly less pressure. It is a good idea to make this something that you and your spouse can do together.
You should advertise if you want to start to get yourself visible on the Internet. When you market your niche, you will see how much of a success it will create. It will help you generate business with customers you may not get any other way.
Include phrases like ?special edition? or ?limited edition? in your online ad copy. People want things that no one else has; try to make them think they are special.
Keeping your website simple and easy to navigate is an invaluable online marketing tip. Although multimedia tools like Microsoft Silverlight or Adobe flash add panache, many customers want a simple experience. Good web designers consider that some visitors to their site will not have the most up to date technology. Your website should strive to be user friendly and functional, without all of the flashy additions.
Don?t be typical when it comes to banner ads. Make your banner ad look more appealing and unique and people will be more likely to click.
Your URL should be memorable, so that people come back. When you are setting up your company, you should always try to incorporate your brand name or company name. Create an easy to remember website address so that your customers do not have to look you up in a search engine.
Before a site can be ranked, it must be built. Before you even think about where your website stands in the rankings, you should be thinking about its quality. This is priority number one for all webmasters, regardless of their business niche. Creating a highly functional and professional site now means less maintenance and fewer headaches later.

'Frozen Planet' the seven-part BBC/Discovery documentary whose first episode aired Sunday night features penguins, polar bears, and a time-lapse brinicle, which has to be seen to be believed..?
"The best stories on our planet are natural ones," says Alastair Fothergill.
Skip to next paragraph
But you'd expect him to say that. For two decades with the BBC, Fothergill has produced wildlife documentary series including "Planet Earth," ''Blue Planet" and, back in 1993, "Life in the Freezer," which explored Antarctica in all its frigid wonder.
Now he's executive producer of "Frozen Planet," a Discovery Channel/BBC co-production that takes a fresh look at Antarctica as well as its north-end counterpart, the Arctic, in seven gorgeous episodes premiering Sunday with the first two hours on Discovery. And while you may not be ready to dismiss filmdom's stars and screenplay writers as unnecessary, "Frozen Planet" makes a strong case that Nature ? captured in the wild ? can equal Hollywood for epic sweep and drama.
Comedy, too. In Sunday's second hour, male penguins by the hundreds of thousands anticipate the spring return of the females, for whose favor each male must compete by building a swankier nest than his rivals. In a delightful sequence, a painstaking penguin gathers stones one by one, only to have them filched, one after another, by a scheming neighbor whenever the hapless suitor's back is turned. These performers, with their Chaplin-esque gait and impeccable timing, would have been right at home in a 1920s two-reeler.
There's also bittersweet romance on "Frozen Planet." Nature's ultimate loner, a 1400-pound (635-kilogram) male polar bear, has lumbered across the ice all winter in search of a mate come spring. Picking up her scent from 10 miles (16 kilometers) away, he finds her, after which they share a tender interlude. Then, just two weeks later, their brief encounter ends as they are fated to part.
Plus, there are thrilling, life-or-death confrontations in the series. Three-ton elephant seals brawl over females. A pack of 25 wolves brings down a huge bison. A wide-eyed Weddell seal falls prey to hungry orcawhales?that, working as a team, can stir up giant waves to wash these frantic seals from the refuge of their ice floes.
And talk about "special effects"! An unprecedented time-lapse shot underwater records the growth of a brinicle ? an ice stalactite progressing downward toward the seabed ? killing everything its frozen plume touches. This otherworldly sight is as eerie and magical as a CGI effect from a sci-fi film. But it's real.
"That's the thing about the natural world: It gives you amazing natural drama," says Vanessa Berlowitz, "Frozen Planet" series producer, "It looks like it's scripted, but we don't fake anything. Everything that we film is a complete portrayal of reality. And the audience thinks, 'Wow, they did that without trained animals!'"
Berlowitz has produced and directed a score of BBC documentaries, including two episodes of "Planet Earth," and, like Fothergill, she logged time at both poles for "Frozen Planet." She lived aboard a Royal Naval icebreaker for four months filming penguins and?whales, and, in the Arctic, spent three weeks filming female polar bears and their cubs while she was five months pregnant.

1984 Fish Bowl
Life inside a goldfish bowl ain?t a lot of fun without a little privacy! The intention with 1984 was to create a true sense of abode for our beloved little friends; solid white walls and three generous (domed) portholes with views from the hallway to the living room.
The fishbowl was inspired by and takes its name from the novel ?1984? by George Orwell.The design is innovative in meeting the needs of a non-human species, a design which ironically engages our own instinctive curiosity. The domed portholes effectively create an ethereal magnifying lens for compelling entertainment. The fish use the opaque walls for refuge and peer out the windows when curiosity strikes.
