If you like, you can check out my site and see what I am up to, it's probably not what bluewateradventures.ca is up to. Never heard of em. Safe sail . . . . . .
Wrong site, Joe.
Try here: Home Port
Hi Jandy,
I emailed info at bluewateradventure dot net and also looked at bluewateradventures.ca. Based on the prices that you are charging customers, it does not seem reasonable that crew pay their own way. I would be interested in an unpaid position, but am not willing to pay my own way, given the money that the ship is making from it's charter business.
CREW REPLY - I Tried
Well Joe, I tried the yahoo thing and no response or a bounce on the e. I'll try this for you and everyone else that may be interested. info at bluewateradventure dot net Let us see if that helps.
JANDY clear
Hi there,

Working to achieving energy security for our country and holding our elected officials more accountable in shaping energy policies. Join the team sign our Petition Today!
Dear Friends,
The House of Representatives approved the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009—or Waxman-Markey bill— aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and the similarly damaging Kerry-Boxer climate bill was recently introduced in the U.S. Senate. Like the House bill, the Senate's Kerry-Boxer bill will have a profound impact on Americans' everyday lives. Simply stated, the legislation will raise energy costs on families, farmers, and businesses, putting South Carolina companies at a competitive disadvantage and killing jobs.
Given the economic challenges we face, the last thing we need is to create a climate for sky-high energy costs. Jobs and the health of the American economy depend on a more balanced approach. Take action and let your voice be heard. Tell Congress to produce a bill that does not harm the economy and includes a more balanced approach to transportation fuels and natural gas.
Sign our Petition by clicking and let our Senators know that we do not want any legislation passed that will be harmful to the residents of South Carolina and our Country.
Who are we? We are SC farmers who know what increased fuel costs mean to the price of food and we are veterans who understand that American energy independence begins with a balanced energy plan that promotes economic growth and small business owners who understand what billions in new energy taxes will do to job creation. Our coalition of concerned SC citizen leaders from all walks of life is ready for a reality check on cap and trade. To be sure, we fully support the unleashing of American ingenuity to develop alternative energy, new nuclear capacity and renewable energy, but we won't stand for harsh mandates that eliminate jobs and leave us shivering in the cold.
It is critical that your Senators hear from you in opposition to the Waxman-Markey like legislation.
The bills could saddle drivers with dramatically higher fuel costs. The EIA forecasts that the Waxman-Markey climate bill could increase gasoline prices to over $5 a gallon by 2030.
And a new a report shows that the Waxman-Markey climate bill amounts to a $3.6 trillion energy tax on transportation fuels. The study shows that from 2010 to 2050 motorists, workers and businesses would pay $2.0 trillion more for gasoline; truckers, farmers and businesses would pay $1.3 trillion more for diesel fuel; and airline passengers would be charged $330 billion more to pay for jet fuel.
At a time when we can least afford it, this legislation can have the effect of driving up energy costs, creating a competitive disadvantage for American businesses, and imperiling thousands—if not millions—of jobs.
Thank you for your support and please continue to help us defeat any legislation that will cost South Carolina jobs or impact our ability to bring new jobs to the State. You can learn more information about the South Carolina Energy Forum by visiting www.SCEnergyForum.com

Retailer Tesco Eyes Global GrowthJames Thompson
Tesco (TSCDY), which operates in 14 countries including the UK, has faced recessionary conditions in most of its markets in the past year. In particular, it has had to battle a savage downturn in consumer spending in countries such as Ireland and Hungary, as well as the states in the US where it operates.
In the UK, which still accounts for 70 per cent of the group's profits, the grocery giant has also locked horns with rivals Asda (WMT), Morrisons (MRWSY), Sainsbury's (JSAIY) and Waitrose, all of which have been firing on all cylinders.
Yesterday, Tesco delivered its final verdict on the year to 27 February: group underlying profits surged by 10.1 per cent to £3.4bn, on sales up 6.8 per cent to a jaw-dropping £62.54bn.
Clive Black, an analyst at Shore Capital, said: "Tesco has gone through an incredible year that has probably been quite stressful in terms of the geographic spread of the recession...and the outcome is very good in terms of the profits, cash generation and dividend growth of 9 per cent."
Tesco, the country's biggest grocer, said that all parts of its business – the UK, international and services such as banking and telecoms – had contributed to its leap in profits. The chief executive, Sir Terry Leahy, added: "Our business is now stronger than it was before the recession."
Of course, given its scale, there were a few blots on Tesco's copybook. These included a trading loss of £165m on its Fresh & Easy convenience stores operation in the US. In Japan, it suffered an impairment charge of £131m against the income statement over the year, following a further deterioration in the retail market. But Tesco said it was already seeing improvements in these areas.
Sir Terry said of the Fresh & Easy business: "We already know it is going to be a success. It will be a nice chain of several hundred stores but we don't know if it can be thousands of stores. But I believe it can be."
Tesco suggested there were still opportunities to be had in the British supermarket sector, despite its 30.3 per cent share of the grocery market dwarfing the 17.1 per cent of Asda and Sainsbury's 16.3 per cent.
The company said it had opened 2 million square feet of store space in its past financial year, including about 100 new Tesco Express and One Stop convenience stores. It plans to increase this to 2.4 million sq ft in 2010-11, though this is in part due to it "unwinding" the pipeline its property team has developed over previous years.
Over the past year, Tesco has demonstrated its determination to try to cement its position as the market leader. After its sales growth slipped behind that of its three biggest rivals in early 2009, Tesco launched a fierce fightback.
Of the initiatives launched, the most notable was a £200m investment to double the amount of money-off ClubCard vouchers last August.
Sir Terry said: "The industry has seen a significant slowdown in sales and we have not. And our relative performance has improved markedly and we are now leading the industry in growing market share."
For its final quarter to 27 February, City analysts said Tesco's closely watched like-for-like sales, excluding fuel, had come in at about 2.6 per cent, down from 2.8 per cent in the third quarter, although the grocer was hit by January's dreadful snowfalls.
While Shore Capital said Tesco was back in the pack with Sainsbury's and Asda, it estimated that the market leader's current underlying sales growth was behind that of Morrisons.
Tesco also believes it has a huge opportunity to grow its non-food business through joint buying and extending its brands into different countries. The company's sales of non-food merchandise rose by 6.2 per cent to £13.1bn, of which a whopping £9bn came from the UK business.
In the UK, Tesco has doubled its sales of electrical goods over the past four years. A similar achievement in its entertainment category has taken just one year, after it revamped its ranges, allocated more space to products and signed exclusive sales deals, such as the Merry Madagascar DVD.
Tesco's clothing business, well-known for its F&F range, now generates sales of more than £1bn a year. The grocer said underlying clothing sales grew by more than 14 per cent in its four central European markets, despite the overall market declining in the region during the recession.
City analysts waxed lyrical about the growth potential for the grocer in overseas markets, notably South Korea and China. Greg Lawless, a European retail analyst at Collins Stewart, said: "South Korea could soon start moving the dial."
Tesco will also open its first cash and carry in India later this year, probably in Bangalore or Mumbai.
South Korea is already Tesco's largest international business, with sales of £4.5bn and profits just shy of £300m, boosted by its acquisition of the Homever chain in May 2008. Sir Terry said yesterday that South Korea was "rapidly becoming a major engine of the group," adding that it had taken Tesco 10 years to achieve in South Korea what its UK operation had taken 60 years to accomplish.
In addition to physical shops, Tesco also has a massive opportunity to grow its retailing services operation, which includes Tesco Bank, Tesco Telecoms and Tesco.com.
Revenues from Tesco.com, including grocery dotcom and its Direct non-food catalogue business, grew by 14 per cent to £2.1bn, making this unit alone bigger than the retailers HMV (HMVMF) and WH Smith (WHTPF).
Tesco also believes the worst of the recession is over and is sounding bullish about the year ahead. Sir Terry said: "The recovery has taken hold. UK customers came out of recession in summer of 2009 and these are not moments but long-term trends as world economies recover."

Brandon Lloyd 's career looked like it was over after he spent all of last season without a roster spot anywhere. Now his career will continue and perhaps end where it began. Lloyd signed a one-year deal with the 49ers on Tuesday. The 49ers drafted Lloyd in the fourth round in 2003, and he spent three seasons there before moving on to the Redskins, Bears, Broncos, Rams, and most recently, Patriots.
Lloyd, who turns 33 in July, caught 74 passes for more than 900 yards in his one season with New England in 2012.
Fantasy Analysis:
During his formative years in San Fran, Lloyd made some of the most ridiculous catches you will ever see. He also had a tendency to drop some easy chances. A decade later, I have no doubt that he can help a wide receiver group that doesn't have much to gloat about past Michael Crabtree and Anquan Boldin . But for fantasy purposes, he is probably worth only a flier in the last rounds of your draft, if that.

Video: LIttle Girl Falls Out Window
A Coney Island bus driver got home from work Monday, and saw that a seven-year-old autistic girl who lived in the same apartment building had climbed out of her third-story window and was standing on the ledge...dancing on the Air Conditioner!!
So the guy positioned himself underneath her and tried to convince her to go inside. She didn't . . . and when she fell, he was able to catch her.
The girl wasn't hurt at all . . . but the bus driver tore a tendon in his bicep.

We remain cynical but open-minded about the idea of smart appliances. What we've seen so far isn't all that impressive: from the potential for kitchen appliances to launch cyberattacks to an incredibly stupid WiFi-enabled drip coffeemaker, we aren't really sold on the idea yet. News of a new oven available for pre-order that is able to sense what you're cooking and automatically determine how to cook it has us intrigued. [More]
The Best & Worst Store-Brand Deals At Lowe's, Home Depot & Sears
Need to buy a snowblower, light bulbs, and some paint? You might figure, "Oh, I'll just head to Home Depot (or Lowe's, or Sears) and get it all done in the same trip." But just because these stores all offer one-stop shopping for most home goods, price and quality of store-brand and private label products can vary greatly depending on the retailer. [More]
Mr. Coffee Introduces The Stupidest Smart Coffeemaker On The Market
I get annoyed when an electronic gadget has functions that you can only access through the remote control, so I am not a candidate to buy the Mr. Coffee Smart Optimal Brew. It's a very nice new network-connected drip coffee machine that you can program remotely from your smartphone. The problem: you can only program it from your smartphone. [More]
Where Do People Buy The Stuff They Used To Buy At Sears?
Many American consumers have sworn off shopping at Sears and Kmart, their local stores have closed, or they have just forgotten that the chains exist. Business that once went to Kmart now goes to discount store competitors Target and Walmart, logically enough, but where do Americans go for the things that they once bought at Sears? [More]
Electrolux Buys General Electric Appliance Division For $3.3B
Whenever someone mentions a General Electrics appliance the first thing that comes to mind is 30 Rock's Jack Donaghy and the pocket microwave, "The Funcooker." Of course neither of those things really have anything to do with Electrolux's deal to buy the GE appliance business, but it's never the wrong time to reminisce about Liz Lemon and the gang. [More]
How One Appliance Store Unleashed The Streisand Effect On Itself
The New York Times' "Haggler" column is a standard consumer problem-solving column like many newspapers have, but backed with the brand recognition and vast readership of the NYT. A recent column about a financing dispute between a Texas woman and an appliance store could have just been a mundane account of a dispute over interest payments on a refrigerator, but the company refused to talk to the Times. At all. [More]
Portable Air Conditioners: Not So Portable, Don't Cool The Air
The concept of a portable air conditioner implies that the device is portable, and that you can cool a room with it. They would be a wonderful tool if this were were true, but tests by our breezy and cool colleagues down the hall at Consumer Reports show that they compare unfavorably to window-mounted air conditioners in pretty much every way, and you might be better off with no air conditioner at all.

Best Buy Delivers Your Appliance For Free, Power Cord For $70
Reader Christopher decided that it was time to buy a new dryer, largely because Best Buy had a great sale and offers free delivery for appliances. It sounds like that might be, indeed, the best buy. Only when he put all of the needed parts in his virtual cart, he noticed something strange. He had to pay an extra delivery charge…for the power cord. [More]
Samsung Indifferent About Exploding Washing Machines
Maybe my standards are low, but I do expect my home appliances not to explode. When that happened to one Missouri couple, they called up Samsung for help. Since the couple had owned the machine for 14 months, the warranty was up and Samsung didn't particularly care. They had spent $1000 on the machine, and expected more from Samsung. [More]
Toaster Ovens: Good Tiny Ovens, Bad At Making Toast
Do you eat toast? Our lightly browned colleagues down the hall at Consumer Reports spend a lot of time testing things that you might not think of to test. For example: the quality of toast produced in toasters vs. that produced in toaster ovens. Turns out that you're better off with a plain old toaster, unless the "oven" part is important to you.

Naked Man Rescued From Washing Machine Is A Helpful Reminder That Appliances Are Not Toys
Did people in Australia not watch Punky Brewster growing up? Because surely if one Aussie man had seen the episode where Cherie gets stuck in a refrigrator during hide-and-seek (spoiler alert: SHE ALMOST DIES!) he never would've climbed naked into a washing machine and expect any kind of positive result.

Hurry And Pick Up A Top Snowblower Before The Snow Comes
If you live in a part of the country that gets snow, you might be thinking about buying a snowblower…um, sometime in the next few hours if you live in the Northeast.

Organize Your Fridge To Prevent Food Spoilage
There might be a perfectly shaped little spot for a gallon or half-gallon of milk in your refrigerator, but that doesn't mean you should keep it there. The door and the very front of refrigerator shelves are the warmest parts of the fridge, since the parts closest to the door make the most contact with warm air. Keep milk and eggs toward the back.

6 Home Appliances Most Likely To Self-Immolate
Kitchen appliances make our lives more convenient and our meals more delicious, but they're also dangerous. Dangerous?

How To Pick Laundry Appliances With Features That Are Actually Useful
If you've never bought your own appliances before or the dryer you bought during the Carter administration finally died, you might find the array of features available on modern washers and dryers daunting and scary. The problem is that the machine with the most features isn't necessarily the best one. [More]
How To Find The Very Best Air Conditioner For Your Home
We can tell when a heat wave strikes this great nation, because classic Consumerist posts on calculating what size air conditioner you need suddenly surge in popularity.

Soleus Air And Kenmore Dehumidifiers May Catch Fire, Pulled From Stores
Our venerable sibling publication Consumer Reports gave a dehumidifier from Soleus Air their "Best Buy" rating. Now it's off the list and off store shelves after the manufacturer sent a stop-sale notice to retailers. There's no consumer recall yet, but Amazon did reach out to customers and let them know about the issue. [More]
Should GE Make My Matching Washer And Dryer Match Again?
Mary's GE washing machine began to dance around the room, but not in a lighthearted, anthropomorphic-appliance sort of way. It was more of an irritating, the-washer-is-broken situation. Fortunately, the solution was simple. All the technician had to do was take the washer off the pedestal that's meant to raise the appliance and make loading and unloading easier. Great, but, um…what about the dryer?

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
With 5:37 left in the game on Sunday, Marc Savard was decked in malevolent fashion by the Penguins' Matt Cooke. Aside from the initial jawing, nothing was done by the Bruins as payback. Isn't that what you do when someone commits such a grievous act against your team? Don't you fight them and punch their lights out? What's five minutes in the penalty box to your team's honor? True, it's hard to think about it in the heat of the moment, but there could be more to the obvious than meets the eye. It was probably a good thing for the Bruins not to get hotheaded a la Bruce Banner. Why, you ask? I'm glad you asked:
The Penguins are obviously the favored team whenever they meet the Bruins. If the hit had occurred in the 1st or 2nd period, or even early in the 3rd, things may have been conducted differently. But there was just 5:37 left to go. Could the Bruins have gotten something going in that short amount of time? Maybe they could have, but the way the season has been going for Boston thus far, it takes them a while to come up with offense, and play calling isn't always the best. The Bruins almost had terrible timing, as the Penguins started attacking right as Thomas was coming out of the net. With everything going against them, including time and timing, the Bruins probably thought they would just cut their losses, especially with a reasonable lead and tiebreakers over the lower teams.
Why weren't the referees watching the puck in an attacking zone? A penalty (and ejection) should have been called on the play, but it wasn't. And as of press time, no penalty had been brought down on Cooke by the NHL. Say the Bruins had gone after Cooke as they had to have wanted to (I myself have had visions of jamming the butt of a stick into Cooke's throat or temple, or slashing various body parts with a skate blade). We attack them as revenge, but they inevitably think we went too far (see above vision). Then they attack us again even worse. Then we attack again. It doesn't take long for an arms race to replace the hockey game, beating and busting all players until no one is available to finish the game.
Both teams would be right; both teams would go too far. Can you imagine the fines and suspensions that would blanket the hockey landscape like ash from Vesuvius? The Bruins got a tough run of things. There's no need to make it even worse. Cut your losses and be the bigger men.
Of course the Bruins are angry. But anger is a powerful weapon, if used correctly. Fighting back is not using it correctly. Basic psychology dictates that if you stay focused, and use your anger as fuel, you increase your strength, hit harder shots, check harder, and get more aggressive on the rink, in a way the Bruins desperately need. If Savard's injury serves the purpose of igniting such passions in such a manner, then there might be a silver lining. If the Bruins can focus their emotions like a gamma ray burst, then they will strike fast and furious like said burst and heat up at the right time of year, when the playoffs are looming. If the Hurricanes can make the Conference Championship as #6 in the East, then surely the Bruins can do better. Remember when as #8, the B's took the #1 Canadiens to seven games?

With 18 games remaining, the Bruins are in good shape. Only the Capitals should provide a big challenge to the Bruins. The Devils will also provide a challenge, but the Bruins have kept their last two meetings to one goal losses, including one in a shootout. The Sabres haven't been too much of a problem. The Canadiens have, but still have a comparable record despite having played three more games. The Flyers might be a little tough. The one and only season match-up with the Flames could be a wild-card. But still, the Bruins don't have much to fear in terms of landing a playoff spot. Just concentrate on offense, use Savard as motivation, and a spot in the brackets will come. Just keep an eye out on Thursday March 18 when the Penguins come to the TD Garden.

Meanwhile, in a mini food processor, combine the green chiles with the sliced olives, smashed garlic, cilantro, scallion and 1 teaspoon of the lime juice and process until a coarse puree forms. Transfer the green salsa to a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
In a medium bowl, combine the shredded coleslaw mix with the remaining 2 teaspoons of lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Toss well.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat the remaining 1 cup of oil until shimmering. Place the fish in a large resealable, sturdy plastic bag. Add the cornstarch and a pinch of salt. Seal the bag and shake to coat. Remove the fish, tapping off the excess cornstarch, and add the fillets to the hot oil. Fry over moderately high heat, turning occasionally, until the fillets are golden, crisp and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle lightly with salt.
Add the jalapeños to the cornstarch in the bag and shake to coat. Remove the jalapeños and tap off the excess cornstarch. Add the jalapeños to the hot vegetable oil and fry over moderately high heat until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the jalapeños to paper towels to drain. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Place the fried fish and warm tortillas on a serving platter and serve with the crispy jalapeños, coleslaw, green salsa and cilantro leaves.

Seeds For Change Network is a non-profit training and support co-op helping people organise for action and positive social change. The network started in 2000 with informal co-operation between people who were doing workshops in their spare time.
Providing training, workshops and support to grassroots campaigners is still the main focus of our work, and this is financed by donations and working part time as trainers for NGOs, co-ops and charities.
We concentrate on working with grassroots environmental and social justice activists to help increase their effectiveness in campaigning and bringing about lasting positive change.
The network is currently based in Oxford and Lancaster. All members of the network have a background in grassroots social and environmental justice campaigning as well as in the co-operative movement. We've been campaigning on various issues such as peace, roads, GM, and have been involved in setting up and running various community resource centres. We've provided training, facilitation and workshops to grassroots groups in several countries, ranging from hairy hippies to grannies' groups.
As a network committed to a radical ecological view of society we work to the highest ecological and social ethical standards. These take into account not just the ecological impact of our work, but the impact on poorer communities across the globe and on non-human animals. As a network, and the collectives within the network we are committed to our Ethical Policy.

Multiple time cruisers of this same class of ship.
Sail Date: November 15, 2015
Reviewed: 1 year ago
Traveled As: Couple
Room Type: Balcony
The cleanliness, service and comfort of Celebrity can't be beat in our opinion. However, we have taken this class of ships multiple times and with each cruise we notice things we enjoyed were no longer offered. One disappointment was the outstanding brunch that was offered towards the end of the cruise. This is no longer offered. Overall, we continue to find that Celebrity still has the best cruise for the money.

|Cozumel, Mexico
|It really doesn't look very far to make the walk into town rather than pay for a cab. However, the eye can fool you on how long it really is. Take the cab to the far end of town and shop/walk to the closest side and take cab back.
|Falmouth, Jamaica
|Like the shops near ship. However, unless a tour is scheduled, would not venture outside that area. We somehow "lost" an ipad on that island tour.
|Labadee (Cruiseline Private Island)
|Relaxing beach side day. If you want to swim or get in water; the side near the port is best for that. Ocean side has too many rocks to be able to walk into ocean. Bring your water shoes.
Be sure to explore the ship. Lawn Grill and Sunset Bar is a treat. The grassy area, night lighting and décor is enjoyable and romantic. We enjoy the premium alcohol package. It is fun to try new drinks at all the bars on ship.

text: Greetings Welcome to Political Science! Dr. Taylor C. McMichael, Coordinator of Political Science Program Welcome! On behalf of the Political Science faculty, I would like to thank you for looking at our Political Science Homepage. Despite the rather forbidding name of our discipline, most students at this university find their Political Science courses to be interesting, even fun. No other discipline reveals as clearly the foibles and follies of human nature. Students' enjoyment of these courses is enhanced by the fact that both our Political Science professors have been honored with the University of Texas Systems Awards for outstanding teaching. Political Science is an ancient discipline, dating back over two thousand years to the Greek philosopher Plato. Politics can be viewed as the use of authority to achieve a just and humane social order. As such, it is one of the central activities of humanity's quest for a good society. Thus students are assured that while their political science courses will usually be enjoyable, these courses will always be important.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 184.108.40.206
Forum Moderators: anallawalla & bakedjake
Maybe that should say niche-niche directory. I'm thinking of what might be very small directories, maybe less than 10,000 listings, depending on the listing criteria. Possibly even less than 5,000 high quality informative listings.
Small directories like this might deal with businesses that are not likely to be very web savy, if at all. Such a directory may well have the best online data available for some of these businesses.
So, can a small directory like that provide info that is usefull to the local search sites? Useful enough to be listed as a resource or reference on the local search page for a given business?
For example: Strip Clubs.
There some outstanding niche strip club directories that cater specifically to their clientele - including things like high quality images, related industries, a look & feel consistent with the subject matter, etc. - stuff that the mainstream Local directories simply can't do, and will never be able to do to that level.
of course, i am commenting from a purely technical perspective :)
The issue is about specialization and rich and deep meta content. The issue is about vertical depth vs. horizontal range.
The issue is about understanding a vertical/ geo-vertical better than any SE can do. But more than that, this is about understanding the *intent of the user* and *user needs* better than an SE can.
One of the reasons that Local SEs came into being in an environment extraneous of traditional pure search is that result set display (notwithstanding different algos) has different requirements, namely proximity scores, mapping, reviews, and ratings. It is through the seperation of local, or segmentation as I call it, that affords the SEs the ability to *drill down into the needs of the local search user and create unique display environments in accordance with these needs*.
Carrying out this logic or trend, you can see how the more you specialize (niche-niche) the more you can drill down on the intent of the user. And the more you can offer result-sets based upon the *unique attributes of a user's search and review process*.
As important of a trend as Local is, Vertical search is as important. Vertical search means niche, specialization, and drill down. And when you combine the geo + the vertical you can drill even deeper. This drill down, specialization activity, will mark search innovation in the years to come.
Lawrence's example is a great one. SEs will never provide this drill down content that he mentions (which is applicable to most industries). They can't, due to their inability to standardize cross vertical requirements. This is why there will be a marketplace for niche players, and this is why it will be a viable business model for those that can execute effectively.
Pretty encouraging answers. As you might have guessed, my perspective is that a small, specialized directory can have the possibilty of digging out, and presenting the important info at a level of detail and accuracy that bigger players might find difficult.
Lots to think about, thanks again.
I believe Ken is talking about that nature by which Google Local for example finds and ranks web pages.
G local is unique in that its ranking structures have attributes that are not too different than its traditional ranking structures.
References: superpages.com - 4 more �
References: nichdirectory.com - 4 more �
This is information listed underneath a G Local result set. From what is known, G is crawling the web looking for structured references to local businesses ~ not too dissimilar to the way the Page Rank algo works. Often you will find authoritative references, like IYPs, and often times, you will find niche directories. Consistant and comprehensive referenced local data is helpful to your rank, in addition to proximity scoring and pinch of good old keyword targeting (new thread topic).
Personally speaking I think Google cares less about the structure of any one niche directory and more about the consistant and comprehensive distribution of business data accross a myriad of directory-like sources. In fact, I have seen some of the ugliest directories listed as G local references. The reference designate is less a designate of authority as it is a random sample of data propagation sources. Clearly, however, G has a algo bias to YP data and the ol' structured data aggregators.
Notwithstanding those points, the question as to whether a niche directory can serve to feed local search algorythms is a question that is on the minds of many. Mostly because of the format of G local result sets. By creating a directory that is referenced frequently, the directory benefits by distribution value.
And at the other end of the spectrum, one might consider the aggregation of niche directory content as a potential authoritative license feed opporunity to the local SEs.
Much of this is unfounded speculation without much basis in reality. There is only a handful of select organizations with such a formal algorythmic designate, and I think that the real science and opportunity is concentrating on the aggregation of rich and specialized content and less about the potential for this content to feed prominant local search utilities.
Is that an accurate depiction, Ken?
[edited by: Chicago at 4:23 am (utc) on Jan. 14, 2005]
What seemed odd to me is that we were doing very well in the regular SERPS, but not even on the map in the Google Local results.
Her answer (paraphrasing), is that there isn't anything you can do - that google Local will find you. She said that they look for pages with local specific info - stuff like addresses, zip codes, references to the location, etc.
Sure enough, a couple months ago, we started showing up in the local results, without doing anything special (deep links from local authorities or such).
So I'm not sure how the principle google algo factors into the G local rankings - all i know that there differences between the two significant enough to allow sites to place top 3 in the main SERPS, yet not show up at all in the Google Local results.
Encouragingly, I've definitely seen a number of niche directories well placed in both the main SERPS and the G local result sets.

I assume this is the same printer as - http://www.laskys.com/compu...
HP have conveniently not included a model number on the page, and Laskys have no more information...
Slightly weary of buying a printer based upon seemingly matching pictures alone!
Yeah, the same. The model number is strictly necessary since there's only one Touchsmart Plus - at least that's my understanding.
surely this is no match for the epson fw700?
HATE THIS DEVICE....check out the reviews on Amazon.com, they are a lot more "real world". It's got a 2/5 star review and about 16/18 of the written reviews express the same frustrations with its horrible WIFI connection issues. It constantly drops out, and needs to be reconnected via USB, drivers reloaded etc. Most people throw this device away after a short while it seems....me included >:(
The www.laskys.com link above is flagged and blocked by my Vipre antivirus. I recommend not clicking on it. Your mileage may vary...
I hate it too!!! HP never more!!!

Here is a short assignment to complete your application - we just need to see if you can work within our style parameters. Please take a look at some Best 10 or Best off articles on an example website: write a shorter, mock article in that style, mimicking formatting details as best as possible (including Price/Opening hours/etc., if applicable). Please ONLY write 3 LIST ITEMS - we just need a small glimpse, not a full article. This mock article can be about any subject in any city. Please have this [rewrite] writing sample ready.'
Responsibilities- Assist with editorial projects and provide support to the Communications Editor.
- Proofreading both hard and electronic files, basic copyediting, and writing of proposals and reports;
- Assisting with or proofing of basic ads, flyers, brochures, invitations, etc.
- Work on special projects, as needed
Requirements- Working towards a Bachelor's degree in journalism, public relations, English, business communications, or communication arts.
- Strong organizational and communication skills with keen attention to detail and problem solving skills
- Knowledge of MS Office applications, especially Word, Excel, and PowerPoint

An Awesome Combination of Analog Synth and Sequencer
The Elektron Analog Four is a welcome addition to any modern production studio. Elektron engineered this 4-voice powerhouse with a punchy and organic-sounding fully analog signal path, and precise digital technology for components such as the envelopes and LFOs - the best of both worlds. Making the most of Analog Four's sound engine is a breeze, since Elektron has completely filled the front panel with hands-on control. Analog Four also has a powerful step sequencer that can even breath new life into your old analog gear, thanks to control voltage connectivity. If you've been waiting for the classic combination of a 4-voice analog synth and sequencer, wait no longer: the Elektron Analog Four is here.
Elektron Analog Four gives you the best of analog and digital
We synth enthusiasts at Sweetwater love analog circuitry for its warm, punchy sound, but we also know that digital control of certain jobs provides unmatched precision - and the Elektron Analog Four is a perfect example of engineering that takes full advantage of this. In the Analog Four, both oscillators of each voice are analog, including their elaborate waveshaping. Their pitches, however, are controlled digitally - along with the noise generator.Modulate your sound with filters, envelopes, LFOs, FX, and more
The two filters of each voice (and the overdrive circuit between them), are fully analog. Ditto the amplifiers. The envelopes and LFOs - they're digital, a design that allows them to venture well into the audible range without nasty artifacts. The signal path from the oscillators to the audio outputs - that's totally analog, as well as the signal path from the external inputs to the audio outputs. The digital send effects run parallel to the main audio path; their wet signals are mixed with the dry analog signal before everything reaches the main output stage.Elektron Analog Four - Synth Voice Features:
- Fully analog signal path, for punchy, organic sound
- Two analog oscillators; two sub-oscillators (variable waveshape on all oscillators)
- Oscillator AM and Sync modes
- One 4-pole analog lowpass ladder filter; one 2-pole analog multi-mode filter
- One analog overdrive circuit; one noise oscillator
- Two assignable LFOs; one dedicated vibrato LFO; two dedicated waveshape LFOs
- One amp envelope; two assignable envelopes; two dedicated LFO fade envelopes
- One dedicated noise fade envelope; one dedicated vibrato envelope; one dedicated autobend envelope
The Elektron Analog Four's sequencer sports six tracks, the first four of which are synth tracks (with each track controlling a synth voice). Track 5 is your FX track, controlling chorus, delay and reverb. Finally, you use the CV track to control the signals sent from the Analog Four's two CV/Gate outputs. Naturally, the parameters of all track types can be parameter-locked. The Elektron sequencer lets you control your analog studio in the most efficient way possible.Dedicated CV track and four CV/Gate outputs let you control all your analog gear
You can sequence your analog gear with CV inputs using the Analog Four's dedicated CV track. The four CV/Gate outputs pass control voltages for controlling any parameter or pitch (V/oct andHz/V), Trig and Gate pulses for trigging envelopes (V-trig and S-trig), and repetitive clock pulses for syncing analog sequencers, LFOs, drum machines, and more. You can use the Analog Four's external inputs to filter external signals. You can even link the filters to form a parameter-lockable filter bank with up to eight filters (4 ladder and 4 multi-mode filters).Elektron Analog Four - Sequencer Features:
- Four synth tracks; one FX track; one CV/Gate track
- 128 patterns; up to 64 step patterns
- 128 sounds; 128 kits; 16 songs
- Six arpeggiators; individual track lengths; swing, slide and accent functions; track transpose
- Micro timing; parameter locks; live-friendly Performance mode
- Sound-per-step change; Instant Pattern, Kit and Sound reload
- Full real-time control; full MIDI support
- Robust connectivity gives you flexibility in rigging up your studio
Elektron's Analog Four gives you robust connectivity so you can easily integrate it into your modern studio. The Analog Four's headphone output, two main outs, two external inputs, two dual CV/Gate outputs, USB port, and MIDI in/out/thru ports (with DIN sync out) let the Analog Four play nice with everything from legacy modular synths to Macs and PCs.

Fear.... fear of the truth.
Fear.... fear of the truth.
I think its a bit harsh to group all boxing clubs in together. We have an excellent dedicated Boxing Gym Tommy's ABC down to road from our gym in Reading. We send any enquries on pure boxing to him, he sends anyone looking for MMA our way. We both respect each others sport for what it is.

i def think some of the boxing community 'has it in' for mma, makes me think of James Walsh's post where they tried to stitch up Jason Young (to make an example of mma) as an example
"Just Scrap!"
Twitter '@DWedz'
I agree that not all Boxing Clubs are the same - I have done Karate for years and have come across other instructors saying that " Your Students dont wear white suits so they dont do Karate " - my simple answer is ' well if I get into a fight then should I get changed into my Gi first before I kick the guys arse so I can use my Karate skills on them '.
Boxing clubs are the same - some will be good and some will be dicks - but the point is that Boxing Clubs should embrace MMA and use their years of foot work and Hand technique to boost their class numbers by bringing in the local MMA fighters.
Why is it in this country we have this devide - But in America, Brazil etc ~ Styles train at the same gyms or fighters go to other gyms to learn different aspects.
Mixed Martial Arts is the fastest growing combat sport to hit the Market in the last 10 years and old school wont except it.
I have this discussion with at least 5 customers a week and after 10 minutes they all go ~ Ahhhh I never knew that about MMA.
here it is mate, was a while back, good post though...

i agree with what your saying, the guy just realy pissed me off with how he acted, most of the guys that trained there were helpfull with giving me pointers etc just the coach was an arse
KETTERING SHOOTFIGHTERS, semi pro 1-1-0
The phrase I liked was 'Boxing is the sport of our fathers and MMA is the sport of our sons'.
Boxing is far less popular than it was, but at least some of that has to do with the lack of characters at the top and the whole fight structure. Of course, MMA has had it's fair share of problems.
I think a healthy respect of both arts is the best way.
NoGiCorbarian- congratulations on your upcoming fatherhood. I wish you all the best. The first 6 months is the hardest, with all the attention they need and the lack of sleep. It gets easier after that.
I do both and I think SOME boxers don't like the idea that someone could take them to a very uncomfortable place!

For them that's interested, the Idolator poll is now out, which supplements (or supplants if you like) the upcoming Pazz and Jop poll from the Village Voice. Other than the results (which not surprisingly weren't very surprising), the most notable part of it was compiler Michaelangelo Matos' essay where he revealed Village Voice media's battle with him:
"New Times—excuse me, Village Voice Media—certainly thought so. Within hours of the poll's announcement, the chain's head music editor, the Houston Press's John Lomax, issued an edict declaring that VVM employees were "not, under any circumstances, [to] contribute to the Idolator poll," a move that lessened our ranks by somewhere between 50 and 70 ballots. Free speech issues aside, I'd have liked to get those folks in, and acutely missed a handful I count as friends. Still, the 507 voters who came through despite ridiculous email problems (an oversized number of invitees never received ballots, thanks to a combination of overzealous spam filtering and a subject line that included the word "Jackin'") kept me busy enough. So did extending the deadline twice. VVM, meanwhile, explicitly banned my byline from City Pages, the Minneapolis weekly where I began my writing career. That probably evened things, since the one Jackin' Pop category that didn't originate with Pazz & Jop was swiped and/or inspired in part by CP's annual "Artist of the Year" feature."
