About the Property
A Rustic, WATER-FRONT, spacious 2-bd, 2-ba home with open air kitchen
The Center is located along the main route to Monteverde and right now there is a SPECIAL PROMOTION: FREE TOUR of an animal sanctuary, the historic Sustainability Demonstration Center, an Organic Farm, and the surrounding tropical paradise of forest & river! Other special ADVENTURE, CULTURAL, SPANISH LANGUAGE, RURAL, AND NATURAL EXCURSION packages for a unique Costa Rican experience with DISCOUNTS available! Contact us for more details.
WATER FRONT HOUSE overlooking the river, in a Birder's Paradise with over 100 bird species identified by certified guides: Rancho el Rio has now a sister home in the same paradise property. It is our new rental called La Granja (listing 787565). Rancho el Rio is 112 acres of a unique combination between nature at its best and a farm with farm animals and crops. You get it all: Over one mile of river front with natural pools, forested áreas trails, mountains with beautiful ocean views, cattle pastures, orchards, and of course, lots of trees, such as palm/coconut, banana, plantain, noni, star fruit, bread fruit, oranges, grapefruit, lemons, passion fruit, mangoes, avocadoes, cashews, are all around.
The weather is magnificent! It is warmer than Monteverde, but not as hot as the beach, so different wildlife can be seen there, such as howler monkeys, iguanas, geckos, salamanders, frogs, tons of birds (herons, birds of prey, parrots, egrets, song birds, toucans, etc.). At night you can build bon fires by the river and even camp there just for fun!
There is a TON of things to do. You can help milk the cow, feed the chickens, geese, turkeys, and fish and tend to and ride the horses, see the sheep, water buffaloes and oxen. The river itself provides hours of fun. Children (and adults!) love to jump off rocks into natural pools and wade around looking at the fish and finding beautiful rocks and tiny creatures. There are several traditional games, such as our home-made mechanical bull and other equestrian games. Collecting and eating coyoles (tiny coconut-like fruits that you crack with rocks) and other fruits to make fruit drinks is quite popular too. Night or daytime hikes by foot or on horse- back through the ranch and the surrounding town are a true delight. We have mountain bikes for rent for those who love cycling.
It is located right on your way to Monteverde from either the San Jose or Liberia airports. It is along route 605, 3 km south from the intersections of route 605 and 606.
Coming from the Liberia airport, you would turn left on the road right past the Lagartos Puente (Lagartos Bridge) and go for 11.5 km. , then make a right, and the Ranch´s driveway is along a brown fence, a few meters after you make the turn. To go to Monteverde, you would continue on for another 3 km. then make a slight left and turn onto route 606.
From the San Jose airport you can go 2 ways. Make a right at the Rancho Grande Gas Station and go until you get to El Sol Restaurant, then make a left and go exactly 3 km and make a sharp left, and you are there.
OR… make a right from HWY 1 (Interamerican Highway) onto directly onto route 605 and go 11.5 km., then make a sharp right and you are there.
Rancho El Rio is 2 hrs from the Liberia airport and 2.5 hrs from the San Jose airport. It takes 50 mins to get to Monteverde. It is an hour away from a lovely beach, Playa Dona Ana. It is close to the tiny rural community of Guacimal.
In this area of the country people still ride on horse-back to work and get around, use oxen to cart things from place to place and raise cattle... this is the real Costa Rica. There is a tiny restaurant-bar nearby or you can drive 3 km. to a much larger restaurant at the intersection of route 606 and 605. But you can just bring all your food in for the duration of your stay and cook onsite or purchase home-made meals. The kitchen is fully equipped. You can also buy lots of organic dairy products right from the people living nearby, eggs, and many other produce, not to mention eat from what is available at the Rancho. We provide you with free organic coffee for the first morning of your stay as we are coffee producers in Monteverde and want to make sure you have an awesome start to your first morning with us! If you want to purchase more organic coffee for your stay or to take home, you can order it through our food order form via email.
Remodeled to suit and accommodate the needs of the handicapped, the house is spacious and all on one level.
It has all the amenities: telephone, wi-fi, hot water shower, stove, fridge, fully equipped large kitchen, 2 bedrooms (1 with a double bed and one with bunk beds), living/dining room with a futon that sleeps two additional guests, towels and linens provided, 2 full baths inside. There is a very large covered porch overlooking the river with a swing, a hammock and a sofa-bed, and a smaller one by the front of the house. There is a wood stove for cooking outdoors and a large wood grill (we provide you with free firewood).
When you're ready to book, here are some tips to keep in mind.

Car: Recommended
3 km. south off the intersection of routes 605 and 606, on route 605. GPS: N 10.19204, W 84.74440
This is a birdwatcher's dream come true. It is just amazing how many species of birds you see and how close you can get to them. In this area of the country people still ride on horse-back to work and get around, use oxen to cart things from place to place and raise cattle... this is the real Costa Rica. There is a tiny restaurant-bar nearby, or you can drive 3 km. to a much larger restaurant at the intersection of route 606 and 605, you can also join a Costa Rican family for meals or have them delivered to you. Buy lots of organic dairy products right from the people living nearby, eggs, and other produce, not to mention eat from what is available at the Rancho. There are individuals that still make things by hand and a trip into the nearby town of Guacimal can show you how.
The weather is warm, yet not as hot as the beach...just right for bathing in the river and whatever other outdoor activity you like to do. There is a rainy season, but even then, it normally does not rain all day. The river may not always be accessible, though. Because of the lower altitude and different weather, you get to see totally different wildlife than you do in Monteverde proper. People also seem to enjoy hiking more as the air is not so thin (you don't get as winded). The terrain has some mountains, but also flat areas that lend themselves to walking, biking and gentler horse-back riding.
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2012
About the owner: Alexander was born in the San Luis Valley in the Monteverde region and has lived all his life here. He started working when he was 11 years old helping his father herd oxen to take milk to the local cheese factory. At the age of 15, he began working for the Children´s Eternal Rain Forest, then he worked for InBio (Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad) researching snails all over Costa Rica, he then worked for ProNativas, an non-profit organization that promotes the use of native ornamental plants as a conservation effort. He believes in changing the world one person at a time, starting with ourselves. Veronica was born in Mexico and spent 25 years in the States. She worked as a biologist, then as a licensed clinical social worker in various settings including private practice with people suffering from chronic physical illnesses and hospice care. She arrived in Monteverde a few years ago with her 5 year old son, Stuart. She founded PAWS costarica (Promotion of Animal Wellbeing Society), a non-profit organization to help educate people regarding the responsible and compassionate treatment of animals. She believes, like Alex, in changing the world from the inside (OUR inside) out. Everything we do, our choices and lifestyles sum up to our current state of affairs… we have the power to choose again so we can heal ourselves, our planet and all living beings. Their work with their ecotourism business, their Sustainability Demonstration Center, and the community helps visitors understand the intimate connection that we have to the land. The entire community gets to benefit from the tourism that comes to this very rural area and get to share their own wisdom. Everyone wins. Stuart is 12 years old and attends the public school in Guacimal. He shares our family dream of enjoying the simple things and having lots of fun playing soccer and bird-watching. Our dream is to achieve sustainability in harmony with nature
Why the Owner Chose Puntarenas, Costa Rica:
We absolutely LOVE the river, which is why we called it Rancho El Rio (rio means river). The river is our source of joy and healing and our source of energy to begin conservation efforts in area of the country with few environmentalists and even fewer resources. We like all the wildlife that gathers in this oasis, eating the fruit, drinking the water, raising their little families along with ours. The weather is also a big draw. Not as cold as Monteverde, so it is warm enough to run around in shorts, but not as hot as the beaches. It is also close to everything. We like being in the real Costa Rica, interacting with the neighbors, growing more of what we eat, living a very simple life.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
This is a place where we can live in harmony with nature. It is a true paradise, not just for our guests and ourselves, but for the many animals and plants that can live undisturbed. There is enough space for us to have a working farm, and to share with the wild life. We like to watch the squirrels work away at a coconut, a large iguana climb a tree, a toucan enjoy taking chunks of a plantain and swallowing them whole, and a bat come in and out of the porch to catch the insects that the light attracts. It is a true oasis for the MANY migratory and local water birds as we have set aside several acres of totally undisturbed forest and river side. Expert bird guides have identified over 100 different species of birds on our 112 acre farm. The other unique thing is that the farm is nestled in the Real Costa Rica... we get to interact with the local people at the natural pool by the house, we see people up and down the street on horse-back and driving oxen with carts full of things and we join them in their activities. Yet, when we want to alone, we can retreat into our very own private reserve deep into our land and just be.

Do I have chest fat or man boobs? What should I do to get rid of this condition? (Photo)
Doctor Answers 10
Consult with a Board Certified Surgeon to Better Determine
According to official statistics, 36% of adult young men and 57% of older #adult men in the United States have this medical condition in one of the four grades. About 200,000 to 3 million cases of #gynecomastia are being reported every single year. So if you have #breast #enlargement and you feel you're an exception, please understand that 1 in 3 young adult #men and 1 in 2 older adult men are just like you and have breast enlargement.
There are three types of surgical treatment options available that treat gynecomastia. Your board-certified plastic surgeon will recommend the type best suited for you. The most important decision to be made before performing any surgical procedure is determining whether you are an ideal candidate. Weight, and more specifically body mass index (BMI), need to be considered when deciding.
Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon is highly suggested in order to determine if you are a surgery candidate and what treatments are best for you.

Chest fat or man boobs
Fat on chest or breast tissue
See a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to examine you.
If it is fat, weight loss and working out will help.
If it is glandular tissue - it will need surgery to correct.
Also - no steroids, no weed.These are known to contribute to male glandular development.

The following information was revealed during our interview with Jerrell Powe:
Are you going to play in the Army All-American bowl? "I am. I am leaving tomorrow (Sunday)."
Any recent inhome visits? "Coach Orgeron came and saw me today."
What was your impression? "I like him, man. I like the way he talks. I like coach Orgeron. He has a lot of energy. It would be a great opportunity for me to play for the best defensive line coach in America. It really would."
What all did Coach Orgeron say to you? "He wants me to help him turn Ole Miss' program around. He said there is no better feeling that representing your home state. He thinks he can win the Sugar Bowl, and he wants me to help him get there."
Do you have any official visits lined up this month? "I go to Ole Miss on January 21st, and I have to reschedule the Nebraska visit."
Are you pretty much down to Auburn and Ole Miss? "And LSU."
Rumor has it that you are going to announce your decision at the Army All-American bowl? "That is right."
Does that mean that Ole Miss is out of it since you will make your announcement
before you take your visit? "No, Ole Miss has a good chance, a real good
chance. If I commit on the show, it will not be my final decision. It will change
on signing day."
Why would you commit then? "I mean it is sudden to change on signing day."
What is attracting you to Auburn right now? "Man, they play defense. Coach Dun is a great guy. I went to one of their practices, and they get after it. They just play good defense."
What are Ole Miss' positives? "Pretty much the same things as Auburn except they are not as good, defensively, as Auburn."
And LSU? "They have a lot of young guys, so they are going to be good for a few years."
What is your academic situation; do you have a chance to make it or are you going the juco route? "I will have to go the juco route, but there is an outside chance I can get in."
Is going the prep school route out of the question? "Yea, I do not want to go the prep school route."
Why? "I do not want to even waste my time."
Jerrell carries a 2.0 GPA and a 15 on the ACT.

In 1960 Michigan ranked 10th in the nation and second in the Midwest in exprots to Japan with $41.7 million compared to Illinois' $86 5 million. However, beginning next year, Japan has removed its restrictions in import of autos and Detroit stands to be the major beneficiary of the liberalized policy, Koichi Nichikawa, managing director of Chicago's Chicago Japan Trade Center said. Both value and tonnage of U. S. exports to Japan through the St. Lawrence Seaway may show a sharp increase as a result, he predicted Nishikawa feels the manufacturer of "big high priced cars is more likely to benefit from the liberalized auto import policies of his country than the maker of "small," low-priced autos The compact cars may have less appeal "because we make those in Japan." he said "But companies might buy Cadillacs for the prestige where cost is no concern " Nishikawa believes that in addition to autos, the big opportunities for U.S. manufacturers in Japan lie in heavy machinery. construction machinery and in computers. "Not many people know that pricewise. we import more electronics items from the United States than we send to this country," Nishikawa said "It takes a tremendous number of transistor radios to offset one computer " Japan is the American farmer's best customer, buying $554 million worth of agricultural products in this country' in 1961 But though grain shipments through the St Lawrence Seaway to Japan—particularly soybeans—are rising. Nishikawa sees little chance that Midwest ports will become major grain shipping points to his country "Most of the soybeans for Japan will go down the Mississippi and be shipped from New Orleans Most of the wheat will continue to go to the Puget Sound area (Seattle. Wash ) because of the distances involved in the St. Lawrence Seaway," he said He sees a rising demand in the Midwest for Japanese industrial components (switches, gears, etc.), hydraulic equipment. measuring instruments and electronic components. Nishikawa said that all of the Chicago area manufacturers of radio, television and hi-fi sets are now using Japanese components. Bogus Bill Passers Held FLINT (UPI)—A Grand Blanc man and a Flint woman were in custody today in a continuing Secret Service crackdown on a counterfeit money operations in Southeastern Michigan Genesee County Sheriff's deputies arrested James D Woodcock. 29, Grand Blanc, in a Flint bar Wednesday night. Thursday Flint police arrested Ida J. Parke, 31, Flint, in the same bar They said W'oodcock has originally acquired $400 in bogus $20 bills and had passed about half the bills before he was arrested Woodcock and the woman were charged with possession of counterfeit currency James J Burke, special agent for the Secret Service in Detroit, said about $120,000 in counterfeit $20 bills had been seized in recent months.

Kent County Republican officials said, however, the senator will be on a tight schedule and may not arrive in time for a scheduled news conference Goldwater will attend services Saturday afternoon at Muncie, Ind.. for Mrs. Anna Davis Johnson, 79.

Goldwater is to address a $100-a-plate dinner at Civic Auditorium at 7:30 p.m. and then depart for Washington Local Republicans hope to lure 1,000 party faithful from 17 Western Michigan counties to the affair, which also will feature Gov. George Romney. Proposed Park Lauded LANSING (UPI) — A scenic shoreline highway along Lake Superior and a national seashore park could be the greatest boon to the Upper Peninsula since the discovery of iron and copper. State Highway Commissioner John C. Mackie said Thursday. Mackie was unexpectedly kept in Lansing but his speech was delivered for him at the opening of the $1.7 million Marquette by- Pass . ... The 400-mile scenic shoreline highway "is a necessity in order to assure the future growth of the tourist industry in the Upper Hart has proposed a federal program of scenic highways. "This proposal for a national scenic highway system would do as much for Michigan as our freeway construction program has done for the economy of our larger cities in Southern Michigan," Mackie said "I believe the only way we are going to develop a network of scenic shoreline highways will be with the financial support of the federal government." he said. These routes would open new recreation opportunities in Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula, according to the commissioner Ionia Rejects Proposed College IONIA (UPI)—Ionia County voters, by a 2-1 margin, Thursday rejected a proposal to establish Ionia Community College and pay a three-quarters of a mill special level for the next 20 years to support it. With all but a handful of the votes counted, the vote was 2,395-4.972 on establishment of the college and 2,313-4.927 on the millage issue.

Deadman's IslandMature
As I slept, I had that dream again. The one where I'm suspended above Raven City and Drayton. This time, instead of Drayton, Raven City lies broken and burning below me. I could hear screaming coming from the city. A voice whispered my name over and over again. It took me a moment to open my eyes. Exhaustion threatened to keep them shut. Looking up, I saw Audrey's dirt-smeared face.
"The pilot," I said as I tried to sit up.
"He's dead. We saw...what was left of him when we were looking for you," Audrey answered sadly.
"Then the flight attendant—"
"She's okay."
"Are you okay?"
"I'm a lot better than you."
She was right. Other than being covered in dirt, Audrey was unharmed. I, on the other hand, was suffering from major 'rock-rash' and a few broken ribs.
"I don't suppose we have enhanced healing abilities, do we?" I asked as I grimaced in pain.
"No, sorry. Can you walk?"
"Yeah. Where are we?"
"They call this place Deadman's Island. It's surrounded by walls of canyon rock. If we're going to get out, we have to scale them. Looks like that 'scaling tall buildings' talent of yours is going to come in handy."
"Great. We land in a place called Deadman's Island and I get to scale hundred foot rocks. This days keeps getting better. 'It's not that bad,' you say."
"That plane was sabotaged. I don't understand who could've known about our assignment. The only people who knew were us, Dr. Corey, the pilot, and the flight attendant. The flight schedule should be private."
"How do we get to Strayfort now?"
"Once we get up those cliffs, there's a town about two hours' walk. If we go now, we should be able to make it there by about midnight."
"Why not wait? Wouldn't it be better if we go during daytime?"
"This place is called Deadman's Island for a reason. It's not just because of the cliffs. There's rumors that say there are cannibals here with abilities. I'd rather take my chances with a giant rock than flesh-eating monsters."
"Ew. Good point. Which direction?"
"How do you know the town is that way?"
"Because. One, I've been here before on a training exercise. Two, I have a good sense of direction. Keep your senses heightened. Our vision will adjust and you'll be able to see."
"Night vision? I'm really starting to love these abilities."
"Be careful. Since your senses are heightened, that includes your sense of touch. It will enhance the pain from your wounds if you brush up against anything," Audrey warned.
"Awesome," I whispered.
She's right though. I can see the rocks and the sides of the cliff as if it was already daytime. I actually wished I hadn't seen the cliffs as clearly as I could. They were sprayed with dried blood where helpless victims had splattered on the rocky ground trying to scale the cliffs. Either that, or the cannibals got to them. As we walked, a strong odor hit my sensitive nose. My eyes watered as I inhaled the rotten aroma of decayed bodies. An echoed shriek rebounded off the canyon walls. Audrey and I froze. Secretly, I pulled out my switchblade I hid in my right sock. It was an instinct. I probably didn't need it with my heightened senses, but it made me feel safer.
"We need to make a run for it," Audrey whispered.
"Won't they attack us if we run?" the flight attendant asked.
"Not if we're faster."
"Get on my back. You won't be able to keep up once we move," I ordered.
The flight attendant did as I said and Audrey gave the signal. We bounded as fast and as silently as we could over the rough terrain. My rock-rash burned intensely as the attendant clung to me. I let out a ragged breath as I bore through it. Loud shrieks bounced around us. I could clearly hear numerous footsteps on the rocks as they chased us. Off to the side, I caught glimpses of shadowed people. They're as fast as we are. They must really have our abilities. There are a lot of them. Are we going to be able to climb with these things on our heels? Suddenly, a hole opened up in the ground in front of us. Audrey leapt over it and I followed. We soared over the hole and something slammed into me. I hit the ground hard and heard screams. I looked up in time enough to see multiple people standing around the flight attendant. They dove into her, tearing her into pieces. Audrey silently grabbed my arm and pulled me up. We continued running as if nothing had happened. My adrenaline thundered through me at lightning speed. The faster my heart pounded, the fast I ran. We could still hear the cannibals following us. We were on top of the Cliffside before we saw it. Audrey stepped on a rock and jumped. I did the same and we crashed into the wall. My body screamed in protest. We scrambled up the rock wall as quickly as we could. The monstrous shrieks of the cannibals grew distant. I glanced below us and saw them. Disfigured faces and bodies. Outcasts. Cast out here and forced to adapt in order to survive. They could've been us. I don't know what made me sympathize with them. I had to shake it off before I continued to climb. The higher we climbed, the less of a threat remained. Nonetheless, my heart still pounded heavily. The thought of my ability failing me and sending me towards the cannibals' outstretched hands kept my adrenaline pumping and my senses heightened. My arms burned. I slowed down.
"Keep going, Nick! We're almost there!" Audrey shouted down to me.
She's had more training in this kind of thing. I'm tired. My whole body hurts. I want to climb into my broken mattress back in Drayton and sleep. It wasn't much but it was comfortable. It was home. Out here, I don't know what's safe. I don't know who's safe.
"Talk to me, Nick," Audrey shouted.
"How much further?" I called.
"I can see the edge. Just a few more feet."
"I'm tired. This whole heightened-senses thing really has its downsides, doesn't it?"
"Your body hurt?"
"A lot. My muscles are burning. I could really use a good physique right about now. This one's no good for scaling canyon walls."
I heard Audrey laugh.
"If you can still use sarcasm then I don't have to worry about you falling to your death."
"Can you please not use 'fall' and 'death' in the same sentence while we're still climbing a wall of rock, possibly a few thousand feet above ground?"
The half-casual conversation was beginning to calm me down. My senses were slowly returning to normal. My vision faded and darkness took over.
"On second thought, I could really go for a cannibal chasing us. The threat helps," I said as fear crept into my voice.
"Come on, Nick. We're right here."
"Too late. My senses are normal. I don't know if I can pull myself up."
I froze. My muscles quivered as I barely kept myself from falling off.
"Okay. Hold on. Stay there."
"Sure thing. No problem."
I heard rock breaking off and a grunt from Audrey. It sounded like she made it over the top.
"Okay. Reach up. Reach for me."
"I can't see you."
"Just reach."
I took a few deep breaths. I carefully let go and reached up blindly.
"A little more."
I took my left foot off the ledge I was perched on and felt for a foothole. My foot found it. I pushed up and felt my fingers touch skin.
A hand wrapped around my arm.
"I got you. Now, give me your other hand."
Balancing carefully, I let go completely and reached up. The foothole my left foot rested in broke off and left me half-dangling, half-scrambling for the wall. I thrust my hand up desperately and Audrey grasped it tightly. She pulled me slowly up and over the ledge of the cliff. I collapsed. Audrey's quick breaths told me that she was tired as well.
"We have to move. We have to get to the town. We can call Dr. Corey when we get there. Come on, Nick."
"I-I can't. I can't move."
Rocks rattled as Audrey stood up. I felt her grab my arm and lift me up. I glanced at her. Her glowing green eyes assured me that she could hold my weight. Audrey put my arm around her shoulder and led me to the distant glow of light I assumed to be a town.

Ryan Harris may have left Sussex in the lurch by returning to his native Australia after playing only one match, but the county would welcome the all-rounder back at Hove.
Chris Adams, captain of the champions, said he was disappointed that Harris, who holds a UK passport, had decided to play for Queensland as an Australian, thus rendering him unavailable as a Kolpak player. Harris made his debut in the season's opening match at Lord's against MCC, taking 4 for 36 after opening the bowling.
"He looks like an amazing talent," said Adams. "We will certainly keep an eye out for him in the next year or so. He may well fulfil that dream of playing for Australia."
Adams added that Harris could yet return to Sussex as an overseas player. "That is certainly an option. His parting words last night were that he's been hugely impressed with the set-up we've got and he very much wished he could have been part of it for a bit longer.
"He's a smashing lad, very un-Australian. He was hoping to spend a bit more time with us, a high-performing team, to see how good he actually is. We've parted on great terms."
Adams does, however, feel that the protocols now in place for overseas recruitment are right. "We want players to come over here and play for the right reasons, wanting to be part of English cricket for the right reasons.
"We now know Ryan was coming to further his experience, but his intentions were always to play for Australia and be an Australian playing in Australia."
When asked how Harris could have taken the ECB pledge a week before the MCC game, Adams replied: "I guess he was probably badly advised." The pledge includes the statement: "It is not my desire or intention to play cricket for any Full Member Country outside the European Economic Area at any time in the future."
This match was abandoned as a draw late in the afternoon yesterday. It got Sussex's title defence off to a stuttering start against Hampshire, who have been predicted to struggle this season after the departure of Shane Warne.

The Kennel Club General Committee has accepted an application to register an imported Dalmatian produced from a breeding programme which was originated with an intentional pointer/Dalmatian cross.
The Kennel Club General Committee has accepted an application to register an imported Dalmatian produced from a breeding programme which was originated with an intentional pointer/Dalmatian cross.
This cross-breeding was carried out in the USA as part of a programme aimed at introducing the low (or normal) uric acid gene into the Dalmatian breed.
This decision, made at a committee meeting on January 5, is subject to certain conditions, which include the dog being examined by two championship show judges to confirm that its external appearance and characteristics are representative of the breed.
The decision taken by the general committee is in line with the Kennel Club's commitment to consider applications to register dogs from out-crossings and inter-variety matings if it is felt that to do so may present potential health and welfare benefits.
The Kennel Club consulted the Dalmatian breed clubs on this matter and their joint feedback was considered at length by the General Committee before arriving at this decision.
It is believed that the Dalmatian breed is fixed for a recessive mutation of a gene that alters uric acid metabolism, resulting in increased urinary excretion of uric acid. This gene is not expressed in most other breeds of dog which excrete lower amounts of uric acid in their urine.
The use of a recently developed DNA test for this genetic mutation on Dalmatians in the USA has shown that the frequency of the normal gene is close to zero in the USA population of the breed. Similar DNA testing of the UK population has yet to be undertaken, but it is likely that a comparable scenario exists in the UK population of Dalmatians.
Some years ago in the USA, a cross-breeding was carried out between a Dalmatian and a pointer with the intention of producing offspring that were low uric acid (LUA) excretors, because the pointer used in the cross would not have carried the mutant gene. The offspring from this mating and their descendants have subsequently been back-crossed with purebred Dalmatians over many successive generations
Recently, the Kennel Club received a proposal to register an imported LUA Dalmatian that is descended from the initial pointer/Dalmatian cross. The outcross pointer appears at least 13 generations back in the pedigree of the imported dog. In line with the general aim of the KC to help individual breeders and breed clubs to improve the health and welfare of future litters, the general committee has agreed to register this imported LUA Dalmatian subject to confirmation from two championship show judges.
The registration records of this dog and its descendants will be annotated by the KC's normal asterisk system whereby the progeny of the first mating between the dog and a registered Dalmatian (the F1 progeny) will have their registrations annotated with three asterisks. When F1 progeny are bred from, their progeny (the F2 progeny) will be annotated with two asterisks. F2 progeny will produce F3 progeny which will be registered with one asterisk. The F4 and subsequent generations will have no special annotation.
In addition to the above conditions the committee also agreed that the registrations of all progeny would be endorsed with the restriction "Not eligible for Export Pedigree" for the next five years, and the owners would be required to submit a health report, to include BAER testing results, on all progeny in five years' time.


text: Agenda The agenda for the 2017 Personalized and Precision Medicine Conference has not yet been announced. The following is a draft agenda: R & D: Trends & Challenges in Diagnostics and Therapeutics Not too long ago the central focus of basic biomedical research was to translate findings into patient and consumer –end products and solutions. However, rapidly advancing scientific, technological and societal developments enable us to now combine the best science with applications in real time, including data collection. The ability to quantify physiologies and genetic make-ups as well as patients using omics based and imaging technologies is increasing. Omics analysis permits a comprehensive analysis of molecules (genes/transcripts/proteins/lipids/metabolites). The increasing self-quantification movement and citizen science research projects are disrupting the population average database model- as individuals are now sharing n-of-1- data. System thinking and computational methods are now used to analyze and visualize biological systems. Increasingly, environmental exposure and life style factors are collected and informing network based methods describing health, subsystems of physiological processes and pathological states. Ultimately, these strategies are enabling us to provide better solutions that can be applied in real time to assess, mitigate, improve or delay disease symptoms and maintain health. The cost of point of care tests is decreasing. More drug applications now having biomarker labels. Clinical research data management is changing resulting in greater efficiencies. The increasing number of million person cohorts and large-scale databases is global. This section will discuss how these disruptions are improving R & D. Technologies Revolutionizing Precision Medicine Technological innovations including but not limited to new computational platforms and methods, machine learning, digital imaging, medical decision support tools and their impact on improving our understanding of disease processes, detection, treatment and prevention will be discussed by experts and innovators. New technologies will help integrate combinations of genomic, clinical and life style data, which in turn will greatly increase in the next 3-5 years, filling a previously important gap in translational genomic knowledge This panel will present exciting new innovations and how they are advancing PM. Beyond Oncology: Infectious Disease, CNS Disease and Cardiovascular Disease Genomics, and the related omics, are improving our understanding of the biological complexities and physiological processes involved in infectious, CNS and cardiovascular disease and therefore the ability of Precision Medicine to impact detection, treatment, prevention, and chronic care. Talks will discuss key advances in these respective fields, and the success and challenges in implementing precision into clinical management. A. Infectious Disease: The ability to detect and tract the spread infectious pathogens, has vastly improved in recent years thanks to genomic and technological applications. This has led to a significant ability to better contain the spread of such pathogens. B. Central Nervous System: Important advances are being made in Neurogenomics and Psychiatry, including the use of Pharmacogenomics to improve care and patient outcomes. C. Cardiovascular Disease: Greater opportunities to use genomics to improve detect, treatment, management and prevention now exist and are growing rapidly. For example, biomarkers are increasingly used to detect and treat heart failure, advances are being applied in pediatric cardiology and advances in cardiac pharmacotherapy have been made. Harnessing Big Data For Research & Clinical Application Large-scale data analysis is transforming the way we diagnose, treat and prevent disease. This section addresses a range of challenges in improving the access, portability, sharing and storage of personal genomic data. Accessing 'locked' databases whose data is available only for a cost versus publically available data, is but one such challenge. Patient Engagement, Empowerment & Ethical Issues The blurring of research and clinical practice, as well as increased patient/citizen engagement has led to a range of ethical issues, including but not limited to if/when a duty to warn exists, whether patients ought to be in control of their own data, how to handle privacy and confidentiality given that evidence shows that personal identification is feasible from analyzing anonymized data bases and how to eradicate health disparities among African American and Latinos. This section will address the primary issues in the context of a changing health care environment that gives and expects greater patient accountability for one's health. Speakers will discuss the powerful impact of patient engagement and the various ethical issues in ensuring that patients have access to their data, if they so choose, as well as to the diagnostics, treatments and management strategies they have helped to develop by sharing their personal data. Panel: From Research to Clinical Adoption: Drivers, Barriers, and Designing Success Strategies Implementing innovation in clinical medicine increasingly requires adoption by health care institutions. The adoption process has always been, and remains, a formidable challenge due to various factors including; institutional barriers, cost, lack of knowledge, skill or motivation. This panel of discusses a range of drivers, barriers and possible solution strategies to expedite efficient and effective implementation of evidence based solutions. Global Experiences in Integrating Genomics (omics) and Related Technological Advances into Practice Although personalized medicine has improved health care and will continue to grow, implementing innovation into health care systems is not without significant challenges. This panel will discuss approaches to integrating PM in clinical care in various institutions outside the US. Lessons learned and best practices will be shared.

Japanese romanized word tenshi means angel when translated into English. THe original context means the messenger of heaven. This word is not commonly used in the contemporary Enlish language but was understood among anime fans.
by jongu June 13, 2004
Short for Tenheishi. Japanese angels. Deffinition; Sky Soldier. They have 2 sets of wings & throw spears at people. Common tenshs of today usually have only 1 set of wings or 2, bt one set of wings are actually feathery wing shapped ears.
by Allaiyah January 15, 2004
Romanized japanese, word for "angel." Even though this is a name meaning angel, however, you'll find that all people named "tenshi" are insane from birth. They will act nice at one point in time and then immediately turn around and say the most insane things. This name is definitely cursed.
"Hey man did you talk to Tenshi last night?"
"Yeah she gave me a hug and then told me to stop being a dumbass or she would kill me."
"Yeah she gave me a hug and then told me to stop being a dumbass or she would kill me."

Amina Mohamed said the attackers included "two or three Americans" and "one Brit". She told the PBS NewsHour programme that the Americans were 18 to 19 years old, of Somali or Arab origin and lived "in Minnesota and one other place" in the US.
Her comments came as Kenyan security forces battled al Qaida-linked terrorists in the upmarket mall for a third day in what they said was a final push to rescue the last few hostages in a siege that has left at least 62 people dead.
While the government announced that "most" hostages had been released, a security expert with contacts inside the mall said at least 10 were still being held by a band of attackers described as "a multinational collection from all over the world". Another explosion and more gunfire could later be heard coming from the mall, reporters at the scene said. Security forces carried a body out of the mall, which remained on fire, with flames and smoke visible.
The security expert, who insisted on anonymity to talk freely about the situation, said many hostages had been freed or escaped in the previous 24-36 hours, including some who were in hiding. But there were at least 30 hostages when the assault by al-Shabab militants began on Saturday, he said, and "it's clear" that Kenyan security officials "haven't cleared the building fully".
Flames and dark plumes of smoke rose above the Westgate shopping complex for more than an hour on Monday after four large explosions rocked the surrounding neighbourhood. The smoke was pouring through a large skylight inside the mall's main department and grocery store, where mattresses and other flammable goods appeared to have been set on fire, a person with knowledge of the rescue operation said. The explosions were followed by volleys of gunfire as police helicopters and a military jet circled overhead, giving the neighbourhood the feel of a war zone.
By evening, Kenyan security officials claimed the upper hand. "Taken control of all the floors. We're not here to feed the attackers with pastries but to finish and punish them," police inspector General David Kimaiyo said on Twitter. Kenya's interior minister Joseph Ole Lenku said the evacuation of hostages had gone "very, very well" and that Kenyan officials were "very certain" that few if any hostages were left in the building.
But with the mall cordoned off and under heavy security it was not possible to independently verify the assertions. Similar claims of a quick resolution were made by Kenyan officials on Sunday and the siege continued. Authorities have also not provided any details on how many hostages were freed or how many still remain captive. Three attackers were killed in the fighting on Monday, authorities said, and more than 10 suspects arrested. Eleven Kenyan soldiers were wounded in the running gun battles.
Somalia's al Qaida-linked rebel group, al-Shabab, which said it carried out the attack, said the hostage-takers were well-armed and ready to take on the Kenyan forces. An al-Shabab spokesman, Sheik Ali Mohamud Rage, said in an audio file posted on a militant website that the attackers had been ordered to "take punitive action against the hostages" if force was used to try to rescue them.
At least 62 people were killed in the assault on Saturday by 12 to 15 al-Shabab militants wielding grenades and firing on civilians inside the mall, which includes shops for such retail giants as Nike, Adidas and Bose and is popular with foreigners and wealthy Kenyans. The militants specifically targeted non-Muslims, and at least 18 foreigners were among the dead, including six Britons, as well as citizens from France, Canada, the Netherlands, Australia, Peru, India, Ghana, South Africa and China. Nearly 200 people were wounded, including five Americans.

Turkey's Low-Inflation Celebration May Not Be All It Seems
Turkey's central bank rate-setters may have been grateful that the wave of protest engulfing Egypt and other Arab states shifted the market's attention away from their controversial monetary policy plan this week. Until Thursday, perhaps.
Thursday saw the Turkish statistics institute announce that consumer price inflation in Turkey decelerated to 4.9% on the year in December, comfortably below the central bank's target and marginally lower than expectations. The figure marks the lowest annualized rate of price growth since 1968, when student protest movements were erupting across Europe and Turkey's current central bank governor Durmus Yilmaz had just turned 21.
Most analysts say that Turkey's benign consumer price increase represents a "farewell gift" to Mr. Yilmaz shortly before he leaves office in April, and means the risks to the bank's unorthodox strategy to cut benchmark lending rates while simultaneously hiking banks' reserve ratios remain limited.
Tevfik Aksoy, an economist at Morgan Stanley, says the low inflation rate means the central bank's "creative" monetary policy strategy will only face "minor risks" if Turkey avoids a major external shock.

When I was in law school in the mid-1980s, I was a teacher's assistant for a professor who was writing a book about taxes and the law. Part of my job was to locate cases brought by various tax authorities that threatened to revoke a church's tax exampt status for speaking politically in violation of the Internal Revenue Code (Title 26) and tax regulations.
For those unfamiliar with the law, churches are considered exempt from federal taxation under the provisions of 26 U.S.C. Sec. 501(c)(3), which specifically states that among the entities exempt from taxation are included:
Corporations, and any community chest, fund, or foundation, organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, testing for public safety, literary, or educational purposes, or to foster national or international amateur sports competition (but only if no part of its activities involve the provision of athletic facilities or equipment), or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals, no part of the net earnings of which inures to the benefit of any private shareholder or individual, no substantial part of the activities of which is carrying on propaganda, or otherwise attempting, to influence legislation (except as otherwise provided in subsection (h)), and which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office.
I have highlighted a number of phrases in this section to point out that if a church desires to retain its tax exempt status, the church must be operated "exclusively" for religious purposes. If the church makes the mistake of having a "substantial part" of its activities include attempting to influence legislation or engaging in "propaganda", or if the church does anything to "participate or intervene in any political campaign", it risks losing its tax exempt status.
While a substantial body of case law has arisen that attempts to define more closely what types of activities step over this line, the determination as to whether any particular church has actually engaged in proscribed actitivities is largely a "case by case" analysis. The mere risk of stepping over the line and losing the tax exemption is enough to force many churches (especially smaller churches with tight budgets) to take a "don't come anywhere close to crossing the line" approach to discussing matters of public concern.
The effect of the ban prompted the House of Representatives to consider enacting The Houses of Worship Political Speech Protection Act (HR 2357) which would have allowed religious organizations to engage in an "insubstantial" amount of political speech activity without endangering their 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. According to an article entitled "Bill to free churches coming to House floor" by Joseph A. D'Agostino And John Gizzi:
"Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code has been interpreted by courts to prevent even a single activity which might be regarded as 'participating in, or intervening in' a political campaign on behalf of or in opposition to a candidate for public office," says a description of the bill provided by [Rep. Walter Jones', R-N.C] office. "HR 2357 confirms this country's tradition and respect for the First Amendment by removing the muzzle from churches and houses of worship created by the absolute ban against all speech or activities that may be regarded as 'political.'
"The political ban in Section 501(c)(3) was inserted in 1954 by then-Sen. Lyndon Johnson. This was done with a floor amendment to the Revenue Act of 1954, and absolutely no hearings or congressional record was developed on the need or reasons for the absolute ban."
"Johnson wanted to silence some of his opponents," said Jones in an interview. "It is time to restore the right of political speech to churches and their pastors."
This may simply be my perception, but the threat of withdrawal of the tax-exempt status has seemed to weigh more heavily on churches that aligned themselves with conservative values than churches that aligned themselves with liberal values. It seemed that any involvement in politics by a religious figure on the conservative side like Pat Robertson brought cries that the involvement inappropriately crossed the boundary between separation of church and state, while religious figures like Jesse Jackson were free to run for president without any of the same cries arising. Well, it looks as though the threat of the loss of tax exempt status has reached a more liberal church in Los Angeles, and the church leaders don't like it at all.
According to "Church May Lose Funds Over Sermon" as published in the Free New Mexican:
The Internal Revenue Service has warned a prominent liberal church that it could lose its tax-exempt status because of an anti-war sermon a guest preacher gave on the eve of the 2004 presidential election, according to church officials.
The Rev. George F. Regas did not urge parishioners at All Saints Episcopal Church to support either President Bush or John Kerry, but he was critical of the Iraq war and Bush's tax cuts.
The IRS warned the church in June that its tax-exempt status was in jeopardy because such organizations are prohibited from intervening in political campaigns and elections.
The church's rector, J. Edwin Bacon, told his congregation about the problem Sunday.
"It's important for everyone to understand that the IRS concerns are not supported by the facts," Bacon said.
Bacon later said he chose Sunday to inform the congregation because Nobel Peace Prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu was in attendance and because he believes a decision from the IRS is imminent. He called the IRS threat "a direct assault on freedom of speech and freedom of religion."
While I am certainly conservative in my approach to religion, I am not celebrating this action by the IRS. I do not want to see any church, liberal or conservative, being threatened with removal of their tax-exempt status simply for discussing (or even advocating) what they view as the important issues of the day from their religious and moral perspective.
Of course, there is a certain amount of irony in the fact that a liberal church should be targeted by the IRS, given that it was primarily liberal religious organizations that opposed the enactment of The Houses of Worship Political Speech Protection Act. Take, for example, the Unitarian Universalists Association's call for its members to oppose the enactment of the legislation:
This bill threatens to destroy the invaluable separation of church and state, transform religious organizations into political machines and create a destructive loophole in our nation's campaign finance laws.
Likewise, consider the statement by the United Church of Christ which was echoed by the Interfaith Alliance (an organization of churches which includes the Episcopal Church, USA -- the denomination with which All Saints Episcopal Church, Los Angeles, is apparently affiliated):
This bill would open a dramatic loophole in the nation's campaign finance laws. Donations to houses of worship are tax-deductible because the government assumes that their work is contributing to the common good of society, not to a particular political party or a partisan campaign. As such, contributions to churches are tax-deductible, and donations to political candidates and parties are not. HR 235 would create a significant new loophole in our nation's campaign finance laws, with serious ethical and legal implications.
Because of their unique mission, houses of worship should not be allowed to retain their tax exempt status while engaging in political campaign activity.
Given the fact that through the first 150 years of the United States, churches were a place where the moral issues of politics were taken up and discussed, it certainly seems contrary to our political heritage to have churches silenced by threat of tax reprisals. It is my view that the tax code should be revised to allow churches to speak freely about the issues of the day, and I urge Congress to take this action.

1. Plastic attachment melted in power input
By glatts2cu from Sumas, WA on Jun 21, 2010
I had to use pliers to remove the brand new power adapter for my Averatec 2260. The yellow plastic end on the power adapter melted in my computer. I used pliers to pull it out, damaging both the cord and my computer. This is junk and will damage your computer if you use it. I'm asking for a refund and would like my computer repaired.

"Well this was unexpected." Said Psycho^Johnny as some other pilots, him and I were stuck at the 3-2 bottom left port. "What the |-|3|| are we supposed to do now?" We watch as the more inexperienced pilots get shot down one by one, knowing that if we step in, we'll be as toasted as they were.
"I don't know Johnny..I think the best thing we could do is just stack up and hope for the best." I say frowning.
"Too bad we can't get these other pilots to listen." He says.
"That's because the vast majority of them speak a language other than English."
"Damn right you are, careful." He smiles a wry smile.
We stack up our ships and begin to fire on the enemy, only one of us having a 50-50 chance of survival.
Both of our ships are then all of a sudden being dragged away by the same ESC ship we fired on.
"What the @#$% is going on now?! This can't be @#$%ing happening!"
He begins to put those engines of his to work on full blast.
"You better not wreck anything back there J.I.M. scum!" says the E.S.C. pilot.
"Get a load of this! Careful! Put on any whites and R.S.B. you might have! We're gonna blow him up!"
"Aye-aye captain!" But before I could, my weapons have been compromised by a single rocket. "Warning! Warning! Error!" My ship was wrecked from the inside.
"What was that? You were going to....'Blow me up'? HAHA! Best laugh in ages! You guys are such idiots. Let's round 'em up boys!"
All pilots that were in 3-2 were now being dragged up to the upper enemy maps.
"Captain! We've lost some of the captives!" One enemy pilots says.
"Get them, and drag them back!" The captain says.
"Sir," the co-leader begins "they are not a high enough level to go into our lowers base map.
"Damn!" The captain shouts, slamming his fist on the dash.
"Stupid J.I.M. pilots couldn't be any weaker than I even thought they were." He says angrily.
"How many of you jerk wads are at least level 14?! HUH?!"
"Sir, before we go any farther, the majority of the more experienced pilots are only from level 12 to higher than level 17."
"Well then, our pilots will 'escort' those pilots to their 3-8 base, and the rest will stay in 3-4. We'll force them to hunt the aliens until they all are level 17. Any lesser goliaths will be forced to have the Veteran design for a 10% experience boost..to make things go a little faster." The captain says with a wry and evil smirk.

Class and CrushMature
I honestly hated school. It was just gay, but I kept at it because of football. As a member of the football team, it was my job to keep my grades up to a passing grade.
I sat there, bored until I met that girl's eyes. The hottest girl I had ever seen's eyes. She smiled at me and then the bell rang. She sat by me as she put her purse on the ground and her binder on the ground.
"Heya Bell," I said casually as she smiled back.
"Hey Aiden." she replied.
"Okay students--" and that was pretty much all I listened to in a seminar that day because today was special.
My mind was filled with ideas in how to suprise a girl. Belle. My girl. The prettiest girl on campus. That was all I could think of. Nothing more, and tonight? Well, tonight was the night I would finally ask her out. After following her for months and being her friend, I was finally ready to take it up a notch.
That class ended as we laughed and the sound of her laugh was just music to my ear. I gave her constant glances as I walked her to her next class. Finally we said our good-byes as I headed off to football.
I entered the locker room on time (thankfully) and I got dressed. Sweat built on my forehead as we ran our laps and conditioned.
"All right!" Coach Alto screamed. I stood there with my hands behind my back as I listened to the instruction. "I want you to do 20 suicides across the field! Aiden!"
"Yes sir!" I yelled back.
"I want you to divide these people into teams. Do whatever you want, just make sure you and everyone else does them!"
"Yes sir!" I said as coach went to sit on the bench and watch us.
"All right guys," I said as everyone gathered around me. "Brendon?"
"Yeah, man?" he came to me.
"Number off. One, two, one, two!" I yelled as everyone got into their lines.
Brendon had been my best man since high school. We had been on the football team together forever. We always had eachothers back. "I'll be a One. Brendon, you be a Two."
We got into our groups and we began our suicides. It was tough even for me, but I kept going and I kept my team mates going with encouragement.
By the time we were done, school was over. "Hey man," I said jogging up to Brendon. "Nice job today," I complimented him.
"You too," he grinned back. "Hey, you gonna ask 'your' Belle out today?" he said fairly loudly.
"Shh!" I said resting my arm on him actin cool. "Yeah man," I said as I wipped the sweat from my face. "I've got the present and everything. It'll be sweet."
"Well, I hope you brace yourself." he chuckled as he nudged off my arm.
"Why?" I asked.
"Becuase she's coming this way." he smiled as Belle tried to make her way towards us.
"Heya Bell," I called.
"Hi Belle," Brendon said after.
"Hey guys. I see you had a nice work out," she smiled looking us up and down.
She came in and quickly gave me a hug and I savored it, then gave Brendon one too. "Well," I said smiling, "You know. We try," I said sarcastically.
"Haha," she laughed, and I thought about how that smile would soon be mine. Hopefully.

Building a gorgeous even attractive would be the objective of most website designers. In the course of action, in some cases the efficiency of your internet site is diminished. We need to maintain in your mind that our objective is not really only to possess a wonderful web site that should make folks want to keep and go searching and enjoy, but also an internet site that could be practical for the engines in identifying what our web page is about or what it is applicable to.
Udi Manber, Google vice president overseeing search good quality, in response to a dilemma about webpage content material evolving being additional internet search engine welcoming defined, "It's absolutely still missing. I wish people would place more effort and hard work into considering how others will find them and placing the correct key terms onto their web pages." Preferred Mechanics – April sixteen, 2008.
SEO Service or Search engine marketing is arguably one of the most crucial strategy to travel specific traffic to your website due to the fact it sales opportunities to improved online search engine placement. Optimizing the advantages of a well-designed net web page will final result in significantly a lot more targeted visitors coming to the internet site thereby creating earnings with the corporation publishing the website.

This may help you to boost your relevancy and engines like google rankings to the very best benefits possible via established search engine marketing strategies.
What are classified as the major problems in design
Initial is is very important to recall that search engines like yahoo are machines and browse words they don't see illustrations or photos or pics. The commonest problems sort a search engine optimization standpoint are:
Producing an internet site absolutely in Flash(TM)
Illustrations or photos with no alt tags
Nominal or nonexistent meta title or title tag
Flash(TM) into the search engines like google is just like a picture it can be invisible despite the fact that the Flash(TM) might capture the intrigue from the viewer it will never enable the search engine to know what your web site is about. Even though the text screen being a portion on the Flash(TM) my be full of keywords and knowledge it's going to be misplaced absolutely on the search engines like google and yahoo and you may go unnoticed. Flash(TM) and photographs can be employed to boost a website nevertheless the web page have to have textual content in order to create relevance for the search engines.
From the exact feeling pictures also are invisible, nevertheless we are able to contain alt tags which will give the search engines like yahoo an strategy of what the viewer will see. The truth is the alt tags can be very valuable because the search engines will area a little bit more emphasis about the textual content in alt tags. Don't go overboard using key phrase phrases inside the alt tags but use some that can help where proper.
The title tag as well discuss later on is an important location to notify the major search engines what your webpage is centered on.
The place do we start off?
Why is search engine optimisation (Website positioning) so vital? Search engine marketing is very important mainly because this will make your web site appropriate to your key terms in the internet search engine ranking approach and will bring about enhanced online search engine ranking. This is often the reason why some companies employ the service of an Search engine optimization firm to accomplish this task.
You can get information on cheap relevant services anyplace within the internet.

Fantastic search engine optimization ought to help you to start out increasing the online search engine position of your respective web site and begin driving visitors to it in the subject of times or weeks with costly processes.
Search engine marketing commences optimally with your site, when you plan and establish it. If it was not done in the beginning you're not way too late, you are able to do it after you have it developed and go back and revise it to boost the publicity to the search engines like google and still result in improved online search engine placement. It is composed with the next things generally known as "onsite optimization".
Keyword Investigate – choosing the principal and secondary keyword phrases you might use on your web site or webpage
Applying the key phrases in a natural way into critical aspects during the web site header and human body.
Search phrase Research and Usage
Let's commence initially with key phrase exploration. Why is search term investigation crucial? The search phrase study helps us to find the key phrases that hook up us with our qualified viewers. These are the words that we wish to work with on our site in a very a number of tips on how to establish relevancy on our webpage so when search engines like google uncover our web site and think about / crawl our web pages, they can then index us for the people key phrases. Once that occurs, then when individuals keyword phrases are typed into the online search engine by potential clients, the search engine will then display our web page inside the search engine results, which happens to be how they tie us to our focused viewers.
Ideally you'll utilize a reverse research resource that may allow you to key in text you think are keywords people would seek out and which can notify you the number of occasions all those keyword phrases were being looked for over a presented time period. Relying over the tool you are applying as well as databases as well as the serps they've entry to for their search engine results you will get different numbers in the reverse search engine results. Your quest motor optimization professional will know and also have accessibility to these resources and which ones are suitable for distinct makes use of. These equipment can considerably increase the entire process of onsite optimization bring about more rapidly improved internet search engine placement.
A single resource you should use for guide analysis is Keyword Discovery's Cost-free Lookup Phrase Recommendation Device. It will limit your success to 100 keyword phrases for just about any specified search. Another guide search device is Suggestion tool. Both of these guide reverse lookup tools will assist you to locate the keywords and phrases that people sort in the search engines like google and yahoo and the way several occasions they have been looked for. Keep in mind keywords and phrases are how we link with our qualified audience.
How Do I use My Key terms The moment we've got discovered the key terms, following we'd like to know the place and how to use them for enhanced internet search engine placement. The very first and arguably the most important place to use our keywords can be the title tag to your web site. The title tag appears in the header of your site and is also the first possibility we have now to tell the search engine what our web site is about.
The title tag need to be 60 – 80 characters in length and use 1 or two in the most crucial and/or pertinent key terms for that web site and maybe your website domain title, specially when your area name consists of keywords in it. The title tag information and facts seems within the blue header bar within the leading on the window and it is also used given that the title of one's listing when your internet site is exhibited while in the normal or natural search results.
The meta description need to be about two – three sentences or around about 200 characters that explain for your customer as well as search engine exactly what the webpage is about. While in the normal or natural and organic internet search engine final results, this description will be the to start with option to the textual content the online search engine displays beneath the title. This description isn't going to show up about the internet site page when the website is shown with the customer but is readable because of the online search engine and applied inside the search results mainly.
A third meta tag is definitely the keyword phrases meta tag which is also not exhibited for the customer of your internet site. The search phrases meta tag is really a keep above from early approaches of seo, but due to the fact it had been abused by website developers, it's rarely use by serps. We still make use of the keywords and phrases meta tag, but most search engines like google and yahoo overlook it on account of those people past abuses. Some search engines like google and yahoo should consider it so you in no way know when search engines like google could begin to use it once more. The Key phrases meta tag is simply a list of nearly 12 key word phrases separated by commas.
