At Eltham Palace, an ancient bridge crosses the moat and leads to a turning circle in front of the double doors opening into the Art Deco mansion.
Inside, this circular wood-panelled room, exquisitely picked out in shades of coffee and cream, is where many couples choose to marry. Like a Hollywood star, brides can make an entrance down one of a pair of curved staircases before the couple exchange vows beneath a glass dome.
Family and friends can surround you during the ceremony and afterwards, French doors lead directly to the terrace beyond, where drinks may be served in fine weather, overlooking the flower gardens.
In burnt orange, ochre and blues, this room – which has its own grand piano – can be used with the Entrance Hall and adjoining Dining Room for drinks receptions. It too has a door out to the terrace.
Striking in dramatic black, pink and silver this is one of the 'signature' Art Deco rooms of the house. Its black lacquer doors with animals depicted in silver make a stunning frame for photographs.
Separated from the main house only by a sliding Chinese lacquer screen the contrast between Art Deco and medieval is stunning. The hall may be used for larger ceremonies, but more usually hosts dining and dancing – it looks wonderful with enhanced lighting. A minstrels' gallery may be used for live music performances. The room opens directly onto lawns, which wedding parties can use in fine weather.
Al fresco drinks may also be served after your ceremony on the wisteria covered terrace, just a step away from the mansion's domed Entrance Hall.
Eltham Palace also boasts a series of rooms with original features, including Virginia Courtauld's boudoir, bedroom and gold mosaic bathroom, which may be used by couples hiring Eltham Palace for photography.

Start with shrubs
Shrubs are the most forgiving plants to prune because they are continually producing new branches to cover up any mistakes you may make. Trees need a little more care so be sure to consult a pruning book with diagrams before beginning. There are several good books on the market including Pruning Made Easy by Lewis Hill and The Pruning Book by Lee Reich. We also have a booklet on pruning at our office for $5.
When to prune
From the plants perspective, the best time to prune is when it is metabolically active so it can quickly respond to the pruning cuts. This is generally from mid March through mid July. Exceptions are when the plant is in bloom and the week when its first pushing out its new growth for the season. Avoid doing much pruning during these times.
In general, prune before the plant leafs out if you want to stimulate new growth or make big changes to the plants growth habit. Pruning before the leaves emerge invigorates plants. This is also a nice time to prune shrubs because you can see the branches more easily without leaves in the way.

Study to tackle problems related to closure of shellfish beds and beach advisories
Saturday, July 27, 2013
DURHAM — A team of researchers led by the University of New Hampshire and the University of Maine will conduct a three-year study of the many factors affecting the health of their shared coastal ecosystem.
"This award is both a testament to the terrific work carried out by the talented researchers at New Hampshire's colleges and universities, as well as an important look at our state's coastline and ecosystem," said U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H. "New Hampshire's coastline is critical to our economy and the Granite State's natural beauty, and this research will play a key role in efforts to protect these areas for future generations."
NEST will select a number of study sites in each state that differ in ecological and social attributes (e.g., closure frequency, watershed loadings, economic impact of coastal tourism or shellfish harvests). Researchers will investigate how natural processes (e.g. water flow in rivers) and human activities (e.g. land development) in coastal watersheds influence bacterial dynamics. A major focus of the work is to understand how scientific knowledge is used for making resource management decisions, such as decisions to close shellfish beds to harvesting.
There is widespread agreement among resource managers and scientists in both states that current beach and shellfish management approaches are flawed; sustainability science research methods offer a means to address these flaws. NEST will use a collaborative process in which resource managers participate in defining problems, identifying research needs, interpreting results and designing solutions.

Refloating the Law of the Sea treaty
The majority of countries at the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea have served notice that they will conclude a treaty governing the world's seas this year whether the United States joins with them or not. Although the significance of such a threat is difficult to assess, its potential for creating instability and hostility is considerable. In any event, it seems clear that after more than seven years of negotiation, the time has come for the US to fish or cut bait on this effort by 157 countries to replace the work of the 17th-century Dutchman, Grotius.
The historical potential of the treaty is awesome. Consider the possibility that the treaty's most unusual concept, that resources beyond the jurisdiction of any nation are ''the common heritage of mankind,'' could become in 300 years the commonplace that Grotius's ''freedom of the seas'' is today. Whether that step toward international cooperation will be taken depends in large part on US participation.
In the summer of 1980, Elliot Richardson, President Carter's representative to the Law of the Sea conference, stated that the draft treaty would probably be initialed in 1981. Last spring, however, the leaders of the US delegation to the conference were relieved of their duties the day before the conference was to reconvene and the Reagan administration announced that the treaty would be extensively reviewed because of dissatisfaction with the part of the treaty which provides for the mining of manganese nodules thousands of feet below the ocean's surface and thousands of miles from any land. The administration's unhappiness stems primarily from the fact that the principles proposed to govern the mining of this heritage do not comport with American free enterprise. The administration has now stated that it will attempt to renegotiate the provisions of the draft treaty dealing with deep seabed mining.

Thirty-three House Democrats broke with their party Thursday on a key test vote on a bill that would extend only some of the expiring Bush era tax cuts.
The House narrowly passed debate rules on the proposal 213-203. The vote allows the House to move to debate and a vote on final passage to extend only the Bush tax cuts for the middle-class, letting end the cuts for high income earners.
House Republicans -- who want all the cuts extended permanently -- framed the vote on the rule as a vote to raise taxes on small-businesses.
"On the floor right now, we are debating the Rule for House Democrats' bill to allow a massive tax hike to hit American families and small businesses at the end of this month," Michael Steel, a top spokesman for Speaker-designate John Boehner (R-Ohio), wrote in an e-mail to reporters. "Voting for this rule is, in effect, a vote to raise taxes and destroy jobs, and yet another sign that Washington Democrats just don't get it."
The vote comes as White House negotiators continue to meet with leaders from both political parties in Congress to reach a compromise on the expiring tax cuts. Boehner this week accused Democrats of undermining those negotiations with Thursday's vote.
The vast majority of Democrats who voted with the GOP were centrist Blue Dog Democrats, many of whom were defeated on Election Day.
Even if it passes the House, Republican Rep. Kevin Brady (Texas) said Thursday on Fox Business Network, the plan is "dead on arrival in the Senate."
Here is a list of House Democrats who voted against their party:
Rep. John Adler (N.J.)
Rep. Jason Altmire (Pa.)
Rep. Brian Baird (Wash.)
Rep. Melissa Bean (Ill.)
Rep. Marion Berry (Ark.)
Rep. Dan Boren (Okla.)

Repeated backlink anchor text.... Am I correct about the penalty?
Msg#: 4371743 posted
3:20 am on Oct 7, 2011
(gmt 0)
I am trying to help a buddy of mine. He used to rank for a very competitive term, for about 5 years. He hired some seo/link builder and eventually lost his positioning. What I am seeing is that his homepage used to rank for this keyword and he was #2, now he is on page 3 and it's an internal page showing in the results, can't find his homepage anywhere for this term, though his homepage shows up for other competitive terms.
I am thinking there is some penalty between this specific keyword and the homepage. Would this be right?
Looking at webmaster tools, he has a ton of directory links pointing to the homepage with that specific text, 100's actually, but when I look at the link report that shows what the text of the links coming into the site are, this keyword is down at 84th...which doesn't seem right. Does that make sense?
Any ideas? He is in the Christmas industry, so would be great to help him out before then if possible!

Could be... Lack of anchor text diversity, lack of non-home links, and low quality sites (directories) are a nasty trifecta.
Cutts made a comment a while back that spammers were actually pretty easy to find because they got so greedy. This to me suggest that link diversity and link velocity are some of the biggest flags google uses.
You might check into these 'directory sites'. Did they link to other clients of this SEO guy? Do they share whois? Share name servers? Share IP's or c-classes? Have a lot of interlinking? Share google analytic? Share WMT? Share similar domain ages? Share footer links?
What type of links were you getting? Context? Boilerplate? Was it in a list? Did these directories look spammy to a average user? Was your link near the top of these pages?
Have other clients of this seo guys been penalized?
What was his link velocity before link building? Say 5 a month...then it perhaps shot up to 50 a month during building? Google is getting good at spotting this.

Why do you think I would see 100's of links coming into the site with "holiday widgets" by checking manually, but then when I look at the top link text being used according to Google, "holiday widgets" is actually #84 in the list.

With this:

Is the best way to comb through the 100's of directory links he has pointing to the homepage with this competitive phrase and get them to remove it? Would this hopefully bounce back his homepage for the phrase?

If it is a BLOOP (backlink over optimisation penalty) then balancing the profile until you are no longer over the line is what normally works. (Bear in mind that he may not have even stepped over the line, the line might have been moved to behind where he was standing.)
Make sure that the site is not over-optimised, and that the content, particularly on the home page, is diverse and features synonymns and related phrases.
Then go out and get high quality (i.e. not SEO directory) links on the 'brand' name (assuming this is not the top keyword).
In my experience removing SEO directory links is tricky because the mods tend to ignore emails - these sites are not exactly labours of love and they devote very little time to them. You may need to submit a paid link with a note to get their attention.

Seems that is not good.
Actually Im into a minus 50 penalization. I discover using GWT that one site was linking me with 13700 links with the same anchor. This amount of link represent the 45% of links... so I thing that is not good and you can have problems.

not that i have a penalty at all, but i always have used the same anchor text with all the free templates that i have done for the last 8 years - footer links etc
does google have a way of knowing that is legitimate repeat anchor texts ?

8:33 am on Oct 13, 2011

From what I can see, it's the timing that is as important as the numbers.
A sudden increase in concentrated anchor text no doubt raises a flag. Google can profile sites and determine the type of site, so if the anchor texts are from less than reputable sites then a penalty can be triggered.
Your anchor text profile sounds like it has been accumulated slowly so that could explain why you're not having problems. I've seen (used to work on) older sites with highly concentrated anchor text profiles from cruddy sites that have always done fine. It's made me wonder if the new rules are not applied across the board - almost as if there is an amnesty for older links. Or maybe these older sites naturally have enough trusted links to balance things out. Some of the older 'SEO directories' morphed into well run successful paid directories and probably have good reputation in Google.
BTW, a word of warning: don't consider what you're doing any more 'legitimate' than what the OP's buddy did. There's been plenty of posts here from people who destroyed their rankings with free templates and footer links.
Thinking that way can land you in trouble! Get into the mindset that *any* attempt to control anchor text is a manipulation in Google's eyes and should be done cautiously.

FranticFish, thanks for that detailed reply, it's made me think about my personal situation a lot more.
the anchor text i have used for years, is quite pathetic really, "designed by #*$!#*$!X.com" which probably doesnt even do me any favours anyway
ive thought about changing the anchor text , but never bothered. it's a hard call for me now, as i havent been affected by any panda+ updates, so if i try and mix it up, im afraid ill lose what i have

Yes, that matches what I've seen. I'd make sure you know about the percentages of different anchor texts in play, but I wouldn't try to revisit old ones.
FWIW I don't think your anchor text (design attribution) is pathetic, in fact it's more or less branded. Some of my clients give me dev/design credits too. At first when I got these I was in the old mindset I had at my old job (factory SEO), and tried to 'optimise' these and use anchor text.
After a while I re-thought it, and changed them all to a plain "site by x" (my 'brand') and the only thing that is a link is my 'brand' name. I don't really do SEO on my site (at least not yet), but I noticed that after making this change the rankings I had (for what I do where I am) improved noticeably.

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month
Pros:It's useful for long distances, I used it in my bed while watching a movie (the scroll option) about 1 - 2 meter(s) distance.
The case quality is really bad, I think that when it falls on the ground it will break. Also it's lightweight, I checked the inside and compare it to a normal mouse, It's viable that the quality isn't perfect.
I suspected a bigger mouse, even if I read the specifications. I use it about 1 week, than I didn't mind about it anymore and broke it open to make a better review.
This is the worst review I gave on all products I ever bought.
It's cheap for a mouse, but don't expect perfect quality.
