Win of the Week: Clarity and Attention to Detail Increase CTR by 86%
Studying new winning ads is always fascinating because of the variety of products and services for which we're optimizing ad copy.Every week, there is a new win ... in a new market ... for a new product. And yet, in spite of this variety and "newness," the principles of good ad writing prove themselves over and over again.
With that in mind, which of the two ads below do you think performed better? The headlines and the URLs are the same. Only the body copy is different. Which approach do you think worked best? PPC Ad #1PPC Ad #2 I suppose it's not too difficult to pick the winner. The grammatical errors make it easy to spot the losing ad. Ad number two is the winner. It was written by "SwayamDas," and it increased CTR by 86%.So why did the new ad win? Here are a few reasons why..... > Read more

Google AdWords Location Targeting: How Does AdWords Geographical Targeting Really Work?
On the surface, Google AdWords location targeting seems pretty straightforward: I tell Google where I want my ads to show and they show them only in that location. From Google's own documentation (the number one result for "adwords location targeting" for me in Google, so it must be right, right?!):For each AdWords campaign, you can select the countries or regions and the languages for your ad.
That campaign's ads will appear only to users located in those areas and who have selected one of those languages as their preference.Emphasis is mine, but it seems to confirm what one would initially, intuitively assume. If that were all that were going on though, this would be the second nice thing I wrote about Google in the last 30 days (and that after I didn't even totally pan AdWords E... > Read more
Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies ... Or, You Know, Don't
A couple of posts that caught my eye this week focused on a sticky little problem at the heart of all marketing and advertising: honesty, or lack thereof. These posts raise the question, is it possible to market a product without crossing any ethical lines?Is It Ever OK to Lie? (Like, Say, for Mad Links?)Jill Whalen wrote a post this week called "Deceptive Marketing: A Necessary Evil for Search Marketers?" From the title, I expected this to be about truth in advertising – in other words, does marketing copy always stretch the truth? Instead, Jill was writing about link building and the little white lies we sometimes tell in order to score a link.
She tells a story about a link building technique she read about several years ago. The marketer, Melanie Nathan, recommended finding broken... > Read more
Yahoo Says Goodbye to CEO Carol Bartz: Further Evidence of Yahoo's Fruitless Struggle
To many it may come as little surprise to hear this Tuesday, Carol Bartz emailed her staff to notify them that she had just been unceremoniously fired from Yahoo via phone by Yahoo's Chairman of the Board.Photo Attribute : Yodel Anecdotal/Yahoo! IncBartz's three-year term as CEO has shown little progress, and clearly many folks are fed up.
After Yahoo's disastrous reign under Jerry Yang, many hoped Bartz would be able to turn things around and return Yahoo to its former glory, but things continue to look bleak for the fallen giant.Yahoo once ruled the internet with an ironic exclamation mark. Those glory days seem so long ago now.What Brought Yahoo Down?How did a brand of such extreme success, arguably at one time the number one name on the web, take such a terrible nose dive?Differe... > Read more
Why Is My Content Network Cost Per Click So High? 3 Mistakes New Advertisers Make
Sometimes the controls inside of an AdWords account can be pretty overwhelming and confusing. AdWords is constantly adding new features, and it sometimes becomes difficult – particularly for new to intermediate-level advertisers – to quickly diagnose certain specific issues in their account. I think this is particularly the case on the content network, as many advertisers with a limited knowledge of AdWords will have had most of their experience working with search campaigns.
One seemingly simple issue that often frustrates unfamiliar advertisers is how to control cost per click (CPC) on the content network. Today we'll talk about why your content network CPCs might be higher than they need to be, and how you can correct the issue.Mistake #1: Failure to Split Out Content and SearchThi... > Read more
Win of the Week: Use the Language Your Searchers Are Using
Which of the two ads below do you think performed better? The headlines are quite distinct, and the body of each ad is fairly different as well. The URLs are the same. Which approach do you think worked best? PPC Ad #1PPC Ad #2 This ad contest is interesting because the ads are quite different, yet the difference in CTR is relatively modest.
In this particular contest, the new winner is ad number two. The winning ad was written by "ctr_guru," and it increased CTR by 31%, which is about the average increase we see for all contests at BoostCTR. Where the old ad was getting 10 clicks, the new ad is getting 13.1 clicks.So why did the new ad win? I have a few theories...1. The winning ad uses a strong keyword phrase in the title. It's more likely a person will search for "online pawn s... > Read more

Please Don't Bait the Geeks
Gizmodo is largely a gadget blog. For the most part, they leave the gossip-based page-view baiting to sister site Gawker. However, this week, Gizmodo published a story that has nothing to do with gadgets and little if anything to do with technology, unless you consider online dating a cutting-edge technology.
The story, "My Brief OkCupid Affair With a World Champion Magic: The Gathering Player," has racked up hundreds of thousands of page views and thousands of comments – probably hundreds of links to boot. So: successful linkbait, or craphat journalism? You be the judge! Here's the gist of the story, which seems to have been edited by the author since its original posting: Alyssa Bereznak claims to have created an OKCupid profile after coming home drunk one night (... > Read more
3 Ways to Scale Linkbuilding with Google Docs
This week Distilled released the Ultimate Guide to Linkbait, by none other than 17-year-old Ed Fry. As incredible as this guide is (and you should read it. Twice.), today I'd like to go into a few more ways to scale linkbuilding, using only Google Docs.

How to Identify Undervalued AdWords Assets Using Assisted Conversions & Channel Groupings
I'm pretty excited about Google Analytics multi-channel funnel reports, which isn't always the case for me with new Google features.

Win of the Week: Subtle Changes Make a Big Difference in CTR
Which of the two ads below do you think performed better? Both used the same title text and URL (which is why the URL is not included in the images below). The body copy is the only difference between the two ads.Look closely and you'll notice the ads are quite similar. They include the same basic ideas, the same numbers.
They both include an exclamation point at the end of the second line of body copy. And yet, despite their similarities, one of these ads increased CTR by 111%. Can you guess which one? PPC Ad #1PPC Ad #2 Because of the similarities, it's harder than normal to guess the correct winner.

August Blog Highlights: WordStream's Best of the Month
I've said it before, I'll say it again: August is the Sunday of summer.

Paid Links: Viable SEO Strategy or a Waste of Money?
In the early 2000s, buying and selling paid links to increase rankings in the SERPs was a common occurrence in the world of SEO. It was an acceptable SEO link building practice until 2007, when Google declared that paid links were in violation of their Webmaster Guidelines, as they were purposefully trying to manipulate the search results.
As Google stated,…some SEOs and webmasters engage in the practice of buying and selling links that pass PageRank, disregarding the quality of the links, the sources, and the long-term impact it will have on their sites. Buying or selling links that pass PageRank is in violation of Google's Webmaster Guidelines and can negatively impact a site's ranking in search results.If there is anything that I have learned in my 12+ years as an SEO professional, it... > Read more

Three Tools to Better Demonstrate the Value of PPC to Clients & Bosses
One of the challenges for any specialist is evangelizing your own channel. Whether you're a pay-per-click consultant, doing PPC full time in house, or just list PPC campaign management as one of the channels you manage, you want to be sure that the proper budget and credit are being assigned to your pay-per-click campaigns.

EARTHQUAKE! Rare Tremors in Northeast Shake Up Twitter
So, I just moved into a new apartment in Denver. This weekend my other half and I went to the new IKEA out here and bought a bunch of bookshelves. He started building them on Monday and by Tuesday we were erecting them and loading them up with books. I noticed some extra parts he hadn't used, and he said they were brackets to attach the shelves to the wall at the top.
"I don't think we need to do that," he said. "The shelves aren't going to topple over." "Yeah," I conceded, "they're probably for people who live in earthquake zones." I.e., not us. About ten minutes later I saw this tweet in my stream from Trada's Elaine Ellis: Yikes! Apparently on Monday night a 5.3 magnitude earthquake hit about nine miles from Trinid... > Read more
Google Analytics Multi-Channel Funnels: How to Use Multi-Channel Tracking & Attribution
Despite being somewhat overshadowed by slightly more interesting tech news yesterday, the Google Analytics blog made a big announcement: multi-channel funnels are now available to everyone.First of all, I want to call out that this is very likely great news for anyone who makes their living optimizing Google AdWords accounts.
Why? Because I have a sneaking suspicion that before they rolled this feature out for everyone (and particularly for multi-million-dollar-a-month spenders) they took a look at whether or not the data was, shall we say, "flattering" to paid search – and particularly AdWords – traffic. The same is likely true for search engine traffic in general, so if you're optimizing websites for paid or organic search, you probably just got another weapon in your value dem... > Read more

Which of the two ads below do you think performed better? Both used the same URL, but the titles and body copy are significantly different.

Conversion Rate Optimization: Are You Considering Page Speed as a Variable?
Every year my marketing team has an offsite planning meeting where we lay out major goals and initiatives for the coming year. Last winter, site speed made it to the top of that list.

Besides the potential SEO benefit, it just makes sense to give your visitors the best possible experience.We are halfway through the year, and we've made some measurable improvements in site speed.

Google AdWords Topic Targeting: What Is AdWords Topic Targeting & When Should You Use It?
Last week we pointed out that Google Display Ads have been the subject of a lot of Google marketing and advertising attention recently, and of course there is a lot of opportunity on the content network in many verticals.So when Google rolls out a new display network control like topic targeting as they did in March, it's worth taking some time to better understand how the feature works and when it makes sense to utilize it.
What is AdWords Topic Targeting?Google describes topic targeting by explaining that:Using topics to contextually target your ads offers broad targeting and reach and is a good way to connect with a large audience quickly and easily to generate awareness or drive sales. When using topic targeting, our system looks at all the terms on a page to determine the t... > Read more

Google AdWords Display Ads – Google's Paying Close Attention to Display, Does that Mean You Should Too?
You can learn a lot about marketing from Google, and if you're in search marketing paying close attention to what Google says and what types of things they place emphasis on are vital to your lively-hood. This is why Matt Cuttsgets 350 comments on a post announcing a change in the algorithm that affects around 2% of queries, and it's why search marketers have a much keener interest in Google Plus and its integration in SERPs, Webmaster Tools, et al than your average social network.
So when Google starts to push something and you're a pay-per click practitioner you pay attention. Recently I've been aggressively retargeted by Google's "Watch This Space" campaign:I've also seen it on LinkedIn where I'm sure from a job title, skills, groups, and probably even demographic... > Read more

R.I.P. Reputation Management – New Huge Google Sitelinks Kills Online Reputation Management Industry?
Quick! Google the name of your company. See anything you don't like? A Reputation Management service firm can make it disappear or so that was their sales pitch, that is, until now.Yesterday we reported on Google's roll-out of new, huge site-links that appear on branded searches, which pretty much crowds out the entire browser screen contents.
Organic search listings not affiliated with the company (such as any damaging reviews) are pushed "below the fold" or to page 2 and beyond, where fewer and fewer eyeballs venture out to.And of course, buying a paid advertisement on AdWords for your company's name can now even further push stuff below the fold since ads are now also huge.The Reputation Management industry has sprouted up in recent years to defend clients against potentially da... > Read more

Still on the Fence? Here Are 3 Reasons to Start Doing PPC
Are you still not doing PPC?! Silly business owners! There are many reasons to explore paid search marketing as a lead generation channel. Here are just three good reasons to get you started.1. PPC Ads Won't Poach Your Organic TrafficAdWords recently released the results of a study designed to answer a question that many advertisers ask: Will running pay-per-click ads cannibalize my organic search traffic? To address this concern, statisticians at Google built a statistical model to make predictions about click volume based on ad spend.
According to Google:This model generates estimates for the incremental clicks attributable to search ads or, in other words, the percentage of paid clicks that are not made up for by organic clicks when search ads are paused.Google found that 89% of traffic... > Read more

December 22, 2014
KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) - San Diego State is planning to attend the Big East's meetings on Friday, but the school has been talking to the Mountain West about possibly staying in that conference rather than switching leagues.
Big East Commissioner Mike Aresco says he doesn't anticipate San Diego State will have a decision at the upcoming meeting in Dallas, but does expect the Aztecs to make up their minds in "a couple of weeks."
San Diego State has committed to join the Big East as a football-only member in 2013. The Aztecs joined along with Boise State, but the Broncos backed out last month and struck a deal to stay in the Mountain West. Now SDSU is looking into doing the same, but the MW has to decide if it wants the Aztecs back.

I'm simply a pretty damn big fan and not a critic of the multi-talented John Fogerty. I LOVED his songwriting, voice and guitar playing starting back in 1969 when i first heard it and STILL love his songwriting, voice and guitar playing 44 years later! I'm so HAPPY that i've gotten to see him perform live FINALLY beginning in 2006 and who knew that i'd still be getting to do so even now seven years later. woohoo!! I don't care about what happened or didn't happen in his personal business w/his band divorce 40+years ago. I was pretty bummed back in 1972 when it first happened but I got over it by the end of the year!! I never lost one minute of sleepin' worryin' about the way things might've been … as we seem to always think that things unequivocally would have turned out 100% rosy ass perfect w/our constant "if only …" retrospectroscope thoughts. It is what it is. Life's like that. etc. etc.
I've seen John now up close and personal 10 times w/different bands as well as countless videos/albums w/different bands. It was a 36 year dream of mine to just see him once before i died. Thank god for me, no matter the band changes – I've never been disappointed and have always walked away from nothing short of a 100% kick-ass concert!! I LOVE hooking up w/my like-minded John fans at these events, too! They help round out the whole experience for me and have given me some great memories and friendships that I wouldn't trade for the world now. THANK YEWWWW!!! ♥
and THANK YEWWWWW, TOO JOHN AND JULIE for still bringing the music to us fans. The music is bigger than all of us put together! ♥ ♥July 4, 2013 at 1:39 pm #1138
Guessy, that´s a great post. I´m with you. John is THE GREATEST musician and I was so nervous when I saw him for the first time in 2000 with Tina in my "hometown" Cologne. John is my musical hero since 1969
I´m proud to be a TRUE BLUE Fan since 44 years !!!!!!!!July 4, 2013 at 10:53 pm #1139
You bring back such colorful memories for me, Guessy! I remember Creedence breaking up, and nobody had any reason WHY! WHY? WHY??? * W * H * Y * did this have to happen? My God, it was terrible!!!!
I was only 9 or 10 years old, but I was devastated, but I still was able to function normally. I tried to find a reason WHY they broke up, but nobody had anything good to say about it.
I was STUCK – trying hard to find a band that did really great music, and I played albums that had mostly GOOD SONGS on them. BOY – that was almost impossible to find another group that had solid, goood albums.
I turned to Foreigner; they were the closest thing to the quality of Creedence at the time. Not the same bayou sound – no. Not the same blues sound. No. But they had quality songs.
Another artist that helped to heal my bruised and bleeding heart was Barry Manilow. His vocal earnestness really helped me get through those dark times. His albums were just stellar creations and to this day, I just love the man! He has a beautiful voice, what a blessing.
I would still take out my Creedence albums and give them a spin whenever possible. But it was getting to be a long time now. The winds of time wore me down. I began to lose all hope that I'd ever be hearing from John ever again.
Then came Centerfield and Old Man Down the Road. WOW!!!
Just like that, like a strong gust of wind that blows the screen door open and bangs it shut again and again, John had another gap decade.
I almost gave up. I thought he was having some sort of problem with no possible solution.
Life went on. Good things kept happening to me and my kinfolk. But I always kept John in my prayers.
Then BlUE MOON SWAMP rose up out of the dark blue sky. HOPE WAS RESTORED TO THE PLANET, my friends!!! My life rose up like a million pink and red roses, and I was so unbelievably HAPPY that the man was back!!!! Then the fateful night in 1997 when I got to see John Fogerty at the GREEK THEATER in Los Angeles….(August 28th, my anniversary.) I remember being so incredibly OVERJOYED sitting there under the stars, but there was no true darkness because John was out and singing with his signature muscular growl. I will never forget his performance under the stars of, "I Put A Spell on YOU." OMG!!! He sang it with such vigor and passion, it just blew my hair back!!!
It was as if he was working his magic on us that night. I didn't want that spell to be broken ever again…..
IT WAS PURE MAGIC, my friends. And I thank GOD for making it all possible – perhaps all of this is just one glorious and stupendous miracle – – – but I nearly gave up on the man.
But I didn't ever put away my Creedence albums. They were the force of hope for me. Now I can brag that I've been so blessed to see John in concert 25 times. Each one is a miracle for me and I thank everyone on Earth for letting it be.
God bless y'all, and keep the faith. Always and forever. X OJuly 6, 2013 at 2:08 pm #1148
Great and awesome post Queenie. I also have every album and single since the time I bought it way back then.July 13, 2013 at 9:47 am #1196
Walter VanheuckelomMember
Great stories from both. For me John and CCR are the best things in my life. I love his music for almost 45 years and every day the music of CCR and John Fogerty makes e happy and makes my day.

Dan SmithMember
Between 1976-1985 seemed like eternity always talk about a new LP but things always seemed to get in the way. I was a diehard Fogerty fan then and will always be one. So much crap in the music business I am just glad John survived. John could have thrown in the towel but he fought back and prevailed and is still making great music today.
DanJuly 14, 2013 at 12:48 pm #1203
yes, amen, DAN. he could definitely have thrown in the towel and was even tempted to do so during his self-admitted period of "loss of creativity" for artistic songwriting during his long period of legal woes. thank god, he did persevere and finally prevail for himself as well as our own benefit. "what doesn't kill me makes me stronger" and John ultimately emerged from the refiner's fire in the form of tungsten steel, baby!!

Ray Lewis to retire after playoffs
Baltimore great had brilliant NFL career
|In this Jan. 15, 2012, file photo, Baltimore Ravens inside linebacker Ray Lewis reacts to his introduction before an NFL divisional playoff football game against Houston Texans in Baltimore. (AP Photo/Nick Wass, File)
OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — Ray Lewis will end his brilliant 17-year NFL career after the Baltimore Ravens complete their 2013 playoff run.
Lewis has been sidelined since Oct. 14 with a torn right triceps. The 13-time Pro Bowl middle linebacker intends to return Sunday to face the Indianapolis Colts in what will almost certainly be his final home game.
"I talked to my team today," Lewis said Wednesday. "I talked to them about life in general. And everything that starts has an end. For me, today, I told my team that this will be my last ride."
Lewis will walk away from the game because he wants to spend more time with his two sons. While working to return from his injury, Lewis watched them play on the same high school football team, and he intends to watch Ray Lewis III perform as a freshman next year for his alma mater, the University of Miami.
"God is calling," the 37-year-old Lewis said. "My children have made the ultimate sacrifice for their father for 17 years. I don't want to see them do that no more. I've done what I wanted to do in this business, and now it's my turn to give them something back."
Which means he'll pull off his No. 52 uniform for the last time after the Ravens are eliminated or win the Super Bowl.
"It's either hold onto the game and keep playing and let my kids miss out on times we can be spending together," Lewis said. "Because I always promised my son if he got a full ride on scholarship Daddy is going to be there. I can't miss that."
Lewis was the AP Defensive Player of the Year in 2000, when Baltimore won the Super Bowl title, and in 2003.
"I never played the game for individual stats. I only played the game to make my team a better team," he said.

Good Helment but pads move
November 21, 2013
I agree with another user review - the pads start to move as the glue turns to a sticky gel. I have lost pads and whenever i use it - the rest of them have moved - time for a new one already

Good Helmet. Old Problem
November 21, 2012
This is one of the best fitting, comfortable and protective helmets on the market and is rated number one by most of the hockey equipment reviews. I totally agree with these analyse but I still have one problem with this helmet in the long term. The poron padding begins to shift and the glue underneath turns to a syrupy mess after extended use. I had the same problem with my 7500 helmet . It doesn't render the helmet useless but effects the comfort level in the long term. Other than this the 9900 is a top quality helmet with top quality comfort and protection. I would recommend it highly. Unfortuately due to the slippage of the poron pads I've switched to a competitors one piece helmet that uses a different kind of fitting system yet offers superior protection comparable to the 9900 and I'm very happy with that purchase.
5 Stars
October 26, 2012
This is a comfortable and very protective helmet that looks good and gets good ventilation. Haven't experienced any slippage of the padding like on my old 7500 helmet. If your looking for a great helmet with top of the line features and fit, I highly recommend this helmet.
5 Stars
Will comfortably fit wider heads
January 23, 2012
This helmet certainly costs more than the others, but you can see where that extra money goes.

I purchased this helmet for my five year-old who has a wide head, and this is the only Bauer helmet that fit him comfortably without requiring any modification (e.g. trimming) of the padding inside.

When my current helmet needs to be replaced, I?ll replace it with one of these. This is the helmet my son and I will use from here on out.
By Ted from Boston MA on August 4, 2014
By Customer Service on August 4, 2014
Answer:Yes. Order the same size as your helmet, unless you have a long face and need the extra length, in which case you would want to order a size up.
By oren from passaic nj on August 5, 2014

Answer:Yes, it will fit.

LOS ANGELES -- With their second pick in the first round at No. 29 overall, the Ducks selected Long Beach native Emerson Etem of the Western Hockey League.
Etem was the second-to-last pick in Friday's first round and the announcing of his selection drew a huge ovation in Staples Center. The high-scoring winger led all WHL rookies with 37 goals and finished with 65 points overall.
NHL Central Scouting Director E.J. McGuire, who had Etem ranked eighth among North American skaters, compares Etem's skill set to former Edmonton Oilers great Glenn Anderson and current Ducks winger Joffrey Lupul.

Jammu Kashmir
Lobbying begins as 8 LC seats fall vacant shortly
SRINAGAR, Feb 2: Hectic lobbying has begun among the leaders of political parties to get a berth in the Legislative Council (LC) as eight seats are falling vacant shortly.
The term of Devinder Singh Rana, Mohammad Yousuf Taing, R S Chib, Naresh Gupta, Mohammad Amin Bhat, Haji Ali Mohammad Bhat, Murtaza Ahmad Khan and Choudhary Nizam-ud-Din Khatana is coming to an end.
Out of the eight vacancies, four belong to Kashmir region, presently held by Mohammad Yousuf Taing, Amin Bhat, Ali Bhat and Nizam-ul-Din Khatana and three to Jammu region and held by R S Chib, Devinder Singh Rana and Murtaza Khan. One seat held by Naresh Gupta of Congress is reserved for Doda district.
Sources told Kashmir Times that election authorities are likely to hold the elections for eight vacancies at the end of February or in the beginning of March when the state legislature would be in session.
The assembly secretariat has also written to Election Commission of India about the names of the council members whose term is expiring and the commission will announce the election date any time.
As per the party strength in the legislative assembly National Conference-Congress coalition can get three seats each while main opposition party PDP can get one seat.
The PDP has 21 MLAs, the National Conference 28, Congress 18, BJP four, NPP three and BJP rebels seven, CPI-M one, DPN one, JSM one and independents three. One council seat reserved for Doda district is also likely to be bagged by the NC-Congress coalition.
In the upper house, there are only five council members from the opposition including four from PDP and one from NPP. Three of them belong to National Conference-Congress coalition.
Sources said that leaders of National Conference, Congress and various other political leaders have started lobbying to ensure their berth in the council.
However, the sources said that few among the outgoing members in the National Conference and Congress can retain their berth in the council.
The total strength in the legislative council is 36 members. However, present strength of the house is 34 as two seats, reserved for Urban Local Bodies (ULBs), are vacant in absence of elected bodies of the municipalities.

Ideally, many people can process Grief or Loss without much professional assistance, if they have an adequate support system in their lives. Often, however, they encounter other challenges in their lives that complicate or delay this normal process, such as Substance Abuse, Guilt or Shame, Anxiety, or Anger Issues. Often client's may think things like: "I should have been a better ____" or "I can't survive without him/her" or "I can't forgive him/her for treating me that way." I generally enable client's to naturally process Grief or Loss by helping them to remove these frequent barriers to healing.
Loss...it is a pervasive human experience. We will all lose something/someone special to us at one time or another. It is our tendency to want to rush through this time. However, ignoring the pain, avoiding the emptiness will not resolve it. Together, one step at a time we can, through practical means cross this dark and difficult valley, find hope and restoration of joy once again.
Everyone experiences grief and loss. It is the normal reaction to losing something that we care about and cannot replace. Grief is the process of wading through the questions that have no easy answers and learning to live without the thing that made life safe and calm. You cannot just "move on" or "get over it" and the road towards regaining your joy can be full of ups and downs. What you can do is talk to a friend who will listen without judgment and who will patiently struggle with you until you find your joy again.
The death of a loved one is arguably the most traumatic experience any of us can face. The goals of Omaha grief counseling are recovery and acceptance. Omaha, NE trauma counseling seeks to help an individual process, debrief, and cope with an extreme stress. Recovery from loss through grief counseling Omaha, NE does not mean that all of the pain, memories or significance of a loved one are resolved, but that one is able to accept what has happened, and that those experiences and memories are an important part of life, but not all consuming. When you see a Omaha trauma therapist or Omaha grief counselor, you will find a listening ear. There are several stages of grieving, and compassionate therapy in Omaha can be a strong shoulder that will facilitate healing. Omaha grief therapy and counseling in Nebraska can help one move through the shock, trauma, and acute suffering, so that you are not destroyed by what has happened. Most likely, there are still loved ones in your life who need you, and if you are grieving, you may utterly lack any emotional energy at all to deal with them. Omaha grief counseling can help stabilize you.
If you have experienced the pain and trauma of loss, grief counseling Omaha with a licensed therapist can help you move through. A Nebraska grief and loss counselor has training and experience in helping people who have suffered loss to find strength, to cope, and move through the trauma. Omaha grief counseling can be an important tool to help you through this difficult time. And while nothing anyone can say can completely heal the pain, you can still find strength to cope and to find hope in the darkness. Therapy is a very important part of moving through grief. Please contact a Omaha, NE grief therapist below today.
You can move through the issues and find the new freedom that you hope for. We are here to help you make the first step. Make your journey the road you have longed to travel...don't be afraid to reach out, contact a therapist, and get beyond.

|Prevent and Prosper
|Written by Linda Palacios

Prevent and Prosper
You keep your figure, stay fit and have fun, but playing sports can take a toll on your body if you're not careful. One local physical therapist shares her expertise so you don't take one for the team.
Whether you're an all-out athlete or a "weekend warrior," taking some preventative measures can keep you on the court, track or field and out of the ER, Christ Hospital physical therapist Martha Stricker says, and she shares some of those measures with Cincy Chic.
Knee(d) a hand?
As a woman's mechanics are different from a man's, you need to keep your body in mind when putting it to the test. With a wider pelvis and different muscle structure, women are prone to jumping and moving with their knees turned in, which can lead to knee injuries.
More active athletes might look to an acceleration training program to train their bodies to move and land properly. But amateur athletes are still at risk. "Weekend athletes or those who just do sports just for fun, you still need to be aware of how you're moving and to avoid risk or injury," Stricker says.
Heat things Up
The most important step toward staying safe in sports is to warm up your muscles before really engaging them in an activity. This warm up doesn't just have to be a couple minute run before your activity. You also can "warm up" your body to the exercise by doing light exercise throughout the week, which can allow you to be more agile for your desired sport, Stricker says.
Stretch it Out
After warming up, stretching your muscles prevents you from tearing, pulling or straining them. Stricker recommends to avoid bouncing with a stretch and to hold each stretch for about 30 seconds. A good stretch will cause mild discomfort but not pain. This preventative measure will help you avoid pulled hamstrings, Achilles tendon tears and quad strains.
Balancing Act
Stretching and working out muscles can lead you to a strong build, but it's important to make sure you are not leaving key muscles out of the mix. When you work out one group of muscles but not another, this can create a muscle imbalance, Stricker says. And this imbalance can lead to serious injuries like a rotator cuff strain, tear or impingement. To prevent a muscle imbalance, work with a physical trainer or physical therapist to determine specific exercises you can do to develop a balanced build.
Cut to the Core
The most important muscle groups to work out make up your core. A strong core prevents injuries in other areas of the body like the legs and arms, but with a weak core, injuries are almost inevitable.
Practicing Pilates is a great way to strengthen your core muscles, but Stricker also recommends working with a Swiss ball. Whether you are sitting or lying on the Swiss ball, a variety of exercises will help you reach your desired strength.
Crunches and sit-ups also help work the core, but you must perform these exercises properly to reap the benefits. For a proper position, keep your back in "neutral" by keeping it straight and not arched, Stricker says. As you move your body, maintain the neutral position for your back.
Christ Hospital has several area Physical and Occupational Therapy Centers and offer occasional screenings. Visit TheChristHospital.com for more information.

Exploring Relationships Between Setting Up Complex Tasks and Opportunities to Learn in Concluding Whole-Class Discussions in Middle-Grades Mathematics Instruction
Kara Jackson, Anne Garrison, Jonee Wilson, Lynsey Gibbons, and Emily Shahan
July 2013, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 646
This article specifies how the setup, or introduction, of cognitively demanding tasks is a crucial phase of middle-grades mathematics instruction. The authors report on an empirical study of 165 middle-grades mathematics teachers' instruction that focused on how they introduced tasks and the relationship between how they introduced tasks and the nature of students' opportunities to learn mathematics in the concluding whole-class discussion.

Tony knows the jungles of Malaysia better than what's outside Manhattan. So he enlists some locals to help him explore NYC's 5 boroughs.Go to Episode
Sam's Soul Food
Sam's Soul Food boasts Southern-style cooking that's just a short walk from Yankee stadium and features oxtail, ribs and cornbread.
596 Grand Concourse, Bronx, NY 10452
The Feeding Tree
The Feeding Tree is a locals-only haunt that serves a full meal for less than the price of one beer inside the ballpark, and it's practically within sight of the upper deck seats. The jerk shrimp is worth the trip.
892 Gerard Ave., Bronx, NY 10451
Tortilleria Mexicana Los Hermanos
Tony and Carlos, executive chef at Les Halles, venture out to Bushwick for an authentic Mexican experience. The tortillas are wonderful -- thick, slightly chewy and fragrant.
271 Starr St., Bushwick, Brooklyn, NY 11237
East Harbor Seafood Dim-Sum Palace (Ying Bun)
Tony visits with chef Chris Cheung and friends at the best dim sum house in Brooklyn -- Ying Bun (East Harbor).
714-726 65th St., Sunset Park, Brooklyn, NY 11220
Diner is located on the south side of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, one block away from the Williamsburg Bridge. Their menu is comprised of seasonal, simple ingredients and grass-fed animals.
85 Broadway, Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY 11211
Marlow and Sons Restaurant
81 Broadway, Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY 11211
Golden Shopping Mall
Tony, chef Chris Cheung and Chris's friend Ming visit the food court of Flushing's Golden Shopping Mall (Wong Jing Xian Chan). It's not a food court in the traditional sense, but rather a collection of tiny restaurants.
41-28 Main St., Flushing, Queens, NY 11355
Sik Gaek Restaurant
Tony meets up with chef David Chang in Flushing, Queens. They visit Sik Gaek, a joint that is best described as the Korean equivalent of an izakaya. Sik Gaek's biggest (literally) specialty is called a cheolpan.
161-29 Crocheron Ave., Flushing, Queens, NY 11358
Hindu Temple Society of North America
Tony and Floyd Cardoz (of Tabla restaurant) visit a true treasure in Flushing, Queens. The canteen is in the basement of the Sri Maha Vallabha Ganapati Devasth'nam temple (known as the Ganesha Temple) in Flushing, Queens.
45-57 Bowne St., Flushing, Queens, NY 11355
New Asha Cafe
Tony and lead singer for the New York Dolls, David Johansen, visit some local joints even Staten Islanders may not be familiar with. The bread's the thing at working-class Sri Lankan joints like Staten Island's New Asha Cafe.
322 Victory Blvd., Staten Island, NY
Jade Island Restaurant
Tony loves a good tiki bar and tiki bloggers and aficionados rave about this place, which looks like it hasn't changed since it opened in 1972. Tony and David Johansen enjoy boat drinks and a pu pu platter while sitting in a grass hut booth.
2845 Richmond Ave., Staten Island, NY

Why Most of Us Want Personal Finance Taught in High School
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The notion that high school students should study personal finance seems to make a lot of sense. After all, knowing how to balance a checkbook or review a credit statement or home mortgage bill is arguably as important as studying the Civil War or dissecting a frog.
That's especially so as 8.2% of U.S. households (10 million total) did not have a bank account in 2011 and 20% were "underbanked" (24 million total), according to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp..
The data suggest way too many Americans don't possess the knowledge to handle their own money properly leaving them vulnerable to payday lenders and check-cashing companies that charge high interest for their services. Being underbanked also hurts a consumer's ability to get loans and credit, even to get something as basic as a credit card.
More and more, the problem of financial illiteracy is a problem in the U.S., with the 52% of teens being able to balance a checkbook in 2007 dropping to 36% in 2011, according to Boston-based American Consumer Credit Counseling.Apparently, parents and teenager have had enough, with 91% of Americans and 84% of teenagers saying personal finance should be a mandatory course in high school. In one regard, parents are only too happy to steer the subject of money out of the home and into the nation's schools -- 33% of Americans say they would rather discuss the dangers of smoking and bullying than talk to their kids about bank accounts and credit cards.

text: Mercedes: The drivers were reasonably happy and reported no major issue 28 March, 2014 The first practice sessions for the Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix took place today in the heat of the Sepang circuit. Nico and Lewis completed a total of precisely 100 laps during today's two practice sessions, just short of the 105 laps completed last year on Friday Lewis ran his Melbourne Power Unit all day, following the resolution of the problem with the ignition system that caused his misfire in Australia The top six cars in the second session were covered by just 0.203s – equivalent to just 12 metres or two and a half car lengths Nico Rosberg: It was crazy conditions out there. In the very, very warm temperatures, it's a huge challenge to get everything right. The cars are on the edge and the tyre degradation was higher than expected today – we are sliding a bit more this year, perhaps because of the reduced downforce levels. We are still having some small issues and therefore we were not able to maximize everything today. The quickest teams seem to be closer together than in Australia, so we still have work to do overnight to improve our level of performance. Lewis Hamilton: I'm happy with our progress over the two sessions today and we were able to complete our programme. The car feels good and our focus was on trying to understand the tyres and make sure the balance is right for the weekend. There are areas where we can improve so we're keeping focused on our own work, rather than being distracted by what the others are doing. It was pretty tough with the temperature and humidity and it's so important to keep hydrated here. We would love a good result this weekend, particularly as it is the home race for Petronas, but it's impossible to predict what will happen at this stage. It's one of the trickiest races of the year so we just have to make sure we tick all the boxes and that it all comes together for us. Toto Wolff: We had an incident-free day but not an easy one, as we worked hard to adapt to the challenging conditions here in Sepang. The high temperatures mean we have to adapt both the cooling package and the set-up of the car to cope and we worked through that programme diligently today. It's not easy to draw any firm conclusions yet about performance; we will keep working hard overnight and see how we compare tomorrow when it counts. Paddy Lowe: In first practice, we ran a programme with two different fuel loads while tuning the car to the conditions. Malaysia is one of the hottest races on the calendar and it's important to do our homework to make sure we are in the right shape for the race. The drivers were reasonably happy with the balance and reported no major issues. This afternoon, we ran both tyres on low fuel, before conducting long runs – first on the option tyre, then changing to the prime, and gathering important information for the race. We didn't encounter any significant problems today, which allowed us to concentrate fully on the performance and endurance tuning of the car. Tweet Related NewsTech Talk: Exactly what did Mercedes have in their bag of tricks for Malaysia?Hamilton: We learned a lot from practice and that is why I blew Nico awayMercedes rivals fear that the gap will be hard to closeMercedes: We cannot afford to be complacent as the competition are right behind usRosberg: I was trying to chase Lewis but he was a bit too quick todayMercedes: It doesn't get any better than a one-two finishMarko accuses Rosberg of not using his mirrors in QualifyingMercedes: The team ran a calm session, making the right calls at the right timeRosberg admits team orders may be inevitableSepang exposes tyre degradation as a weakness in Mercedes armoury


text: The only thing better than looking at yourself in the mirror on a good shoe day is watching your significant shawty roam the concrete jungle in a puffy pair of fresh Jordans. 'Go forth and conquer these streets, girl,' you cheer on with binoculars pressed to your joyful salty eyes. Sneakerhead or not, no one can deny a lady is in her true element in a pair of leggings and some retro Js – no one! – so here we serve up an entree of pictures of girls reppin' MJ on-foot that will hopefully lead you to the glorious buffet out there on Instagram and beyond. No, women are not food, but they do look delicious when they're wearing Grapes Fives or Wheat 13s. Enjoy the gallery above, and look out for #girlsinjordans on Instagram and the Jordan Girls Facebook page.

Key Earnings This Week: Aluminum, Discount Retailers and Restaurants
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Third-quarter earnings season becomes a major focus this week, and on Tuesday and Wednesday six important companies report results.
One is Alcoa (AA), a former Dow Jones Industrial Average component that traditionally kicked off earnings season.
But the five other companies I'm highlighting, in the retail-wholesale sector, are more important to watch this earnings season, because they will provide important information about consumer spending. Consumer confidence has slumped recently.
The basic materials sector is 5.1% undervalued and has an underweight rating with 64.9% of the 401 stocks in this sector rated sell or strong sell.The retail-wholesale sector is 23.4% overvalued but has an overweight rating with 79.4% of the 354 stocks in the sector rated buy or strong buy. Last week was a strange one for the major equity indices. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 185 points while the Nasdaq tacked on 26 points. The S&P 500 was down fractionally while the Dow transports and Russell 2000 were up fractionally. This week's value levels are 14,809 for the Dow Jones industrials, 1658.8 for the S&P 500, 3763 for the Nasdaq, 6522 for the Dow transports and 1053.22 for the Russell 2000. The Nasdaq ended last week above my semiannual pivot at 3759 with the semiannual risky levels at 16,490 for the Dow industrials, 1743.5 for the S&P 500, 7104 for the Dow transports and 1089.42 for the Russell 2000. The Nasdaq set a new multiyear high at 3817.98 on Oct. 1 with the Russell 2000 setting a new all-time high at 1087.78. The all-time highs are 15,709.59 for the Dow industrials (set on Sept. 18), 1729.86 for the S&P 500 (set on Sept. 19) and 6754.81 for the Dow transports (set on Sept. 20). New monthly and semiannual risky levels are 15,932 and 16,775, respectively, for the Dow industrials, 1746.4 and 1853.8 for the S&P 500, 3830 and 4024 for the Nasdaq, 6811 and 7205 for the Dow transports and 1092.46 and 1163.21 for the Russell 2000. My annual value levels remain at 12,696 for the Dow industrials, 1348.3 for the S&P 500, 2806 for the Nasdaq, 5469 for the Dow Transports, and 809.54 for the Russell 2000.
