Baltimore Ravens News: Regular Season and Preseason Updates
6/13/13: The Ravens received their Super Bowl rings this past week, a ceremony that every player looks forward to. The team also visited the White House and was congratulated by the President. Former stars like Ed Reed were on hand, as well as most of the championship team. The President joked that Joe Flacco had great timing on his contract negotiations, and head coach John Harbaugh promised a return visit. However, not every member of the team was present. Now retired Matt Birk boycotted the visit because of his political views, implying that his presence would be an endorsement of some controversial White House policies.
6/6/13: Baltimore, under the personnel direction of General Manager Ozzie Newsome, has a tradition of finding unheralded players who come in and play great. Wide receiver Torrey Smith wants that to continue in the receiving corps. Smith does not want the team to acquire a veteran WR in the offseason. Instead, Smith wants the young guys to compete and step up into the role. The Ravens have Smith and Jacoby Jones, but traded away Anquan Boldin, so there is logic in bringing in another receiver. That being said, Smith has a point about developing the talent internally, and letting the guys they drafted earn their keep.
5/30/13: New Ravens defensive lineman Chris Canty threw some support for his new QB. He was asked who was the better quarterback, Joe Flacco, or former Giants teammate Eli Manning. Perhaps as a way to suck up to his new teammates, Canty responded that Flacco was the superior signal caller. He said that Eli is a very clutch player, but Flacco throws the better deep ball. He also said that Flacco is better because of his Super Bowl victory. Apparently he forgot that Eli won two titles. In any case, Canty is going from one good situation to another, and both teams have are favorites to make the playoffs.
5/23/13: The Ravens, of course, are known predominantly for their defenses. It has been well documented that the defense that helped win the Super Bowl in February is largely gone, so GM Ozzie Newsome and company went shopping for replacements. One of those was 23 year old Rolondo McClain, who was to enter his fourth year. He was a top draft pick of the Raiders in 2010 and had a good rookie season. However, his play regressed over the past two years, to the point of being replaced in passing downs by a rookie and getting into altercations with his coaches. He was arrested twice in his hometown before the Raiders cut him. Baltimore signed him in the offseason, but now he says he is retiring. Here is hoping he can find some peace.
5/16/13: It does not look like the Ravens are worried about losing their leading receiver from last season. The team traded the resilient but aging Anquan Boldin to San Francisco earlier in the offseason. Baltimore still has Torrey Smith on the team, and just signed Dennis Pitta to a one year deal. The tight end set career highs in catches (61), yards (661), and touchdowns (7). More importantly, he and QB Joe Flacco made a lethal combination throughout the playoffs. Expect to see more of the same this coming season, as Pitta looks to join the elite group of tight ends like Rob Gronkowski, Jimmy Graham, and Vernon Davis.
5/9/13: Steve Spagnuolo has had a rough few years. In 2007, he designed and orchestrated the New York Giants' defense, the only team that year to beat the New England Patriots - in the Super Bowl no less. He parlayed that success into the head coaching job in St. Louis for a few undistinguished years. He was fired following the 2011 campaign after a 2-14 record and very little talent. Last season, he was the defensive coordinator for the Saints. Even with his prior head coaching experience, he was not named as an interim coach. He became the scapegoat there. Now he has joined a senior defensive assistant. Spags is a good guy and defensive coordinator, and deserves better.
5/2/13: Baltimore is known for their defense, and this is a Ravens' draft if there ever was one. The reigning Super Bowl champions only took one offensive player, tackle Richard Wagoner from Wisconsin in the fifth round. Otherwise, they spent picks rebuilding the defense, including safety Matt Elam (Florida) in the first round and inside linebacker Arthur Brown in the second round. Clearly, this is a team that wants to hit people hard. But it is hard to go against GM Ozzie Newsome. He is the best GM in the league and certainly knows exactly what his team needs.
4/25/13: You have to wonder if Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome has a few more tricks up his sleeve going into the draft and regular season. It is no secret that the Raven lost a lot of their key members from the Super Bowl winning team a few months ago. But they did add a lot of new members, and Newsome will not make the mistake of dishing out big contracts to veterans who are past their prime simply to keep a team together. Expect another successful draft by Newsome, who is simply the best GM in the NFL.
4/18/13: Baltimore has the distinct honor of being the first Super Bowl winning team since 2004 to not host the opening game of the NFL season. Its not Baltimore's fault, there happens to be scheduling conflict with the Baltimore Orioles (over a shared parking area) as well as a religious holiday that week. However, it is doubtful the Ravens would trade a world championship over not hosting the first game of the year. The team will be boasting a new roster, but should still be competitive, even as the Cincinnati Bengals are a division foe on the rise.
4/11/13: Ravens QB Joe Flacco is getting himself into a family fight. Flacco agreed to play NFL legend Johnny Unitas in the upcoming film "Unitas We Stand". Unitas' son from his second marriage is producing the film, but the family from the first marriage, especially John Unitas Jr. is vehemently opposed to the movie. Unitas Jr. and his family own the merchandising rights to the Unitas name. They are threatening law suits if the movie makes any money. A Unitas movie may be interesting and bring the legend to the attention of today's youth who only know about players that have been around for the past few years.
4/4/13: Ravens special teamer Christian Thompson was suspended for the first four games of the upcoming season because he violated the league's substance abuse policy. Thompson played safety in college at South Carolina State. He was a rookie last season and played in seven of the Raven's first eight games before injuring his knee and being placed on the IR. He is eligible to participate in all preseason practices and games, but must sit out the first four games of the regular season unless he can delay that or get it changed through the NFL's appeals process.
3/28/13: Not many people feel sorry for the Ravens for losing much of the core of their vaunted defense this off season after winning the Super Bowl. But the Ravens have done a good job of reloading on talent, signing Marcus Spears to play along side Haluta Ngalta on the defense line. But the big loss was the defection of 11 year veteran and all pro safety Ed Reed to the Houston Texans. Reed took out a full page ad in the Baltimore Newspaper to thank the Ravens fans for their support throughout the years. Reed has been slowed by injuries recently, but should bolster the Texans secondary when he fully heals. The Ravens also signed Elvis Dumervil after the Broncos were forced to cut him because his restructured contract was not received in time.
3/21/13: Baltimore has been railed in the media for not keeping several members of the Super Bowl winning defense with the team. Ray Lewis retired. Ed Reed may go to Houston. Paul Krueger is in Cleveland. And Dannell Eberle is in Miami. But the Ravens learned a decade ago that overpaying to keep the team together only leads to misery and salary cap problems. Additionally, the Joe Flacco signing does not hurt them this year, he will have the same cap figure as in 2012. Baltimore will be just fine - there is a reason Ozzie Newsome is the best executive in the NFL.

3/14/13: The reigning Super Bowl Champions are showing they cannot keep the entire team together. The Ravens traded wide receiver Anquan Boldin to the San Francisco 49ers for draft picks. Boldin refused to take a pay cut to remain with the team, so was deemed expendable. The Ravens also lost free agents Paul Krueger and Dannell Elerbe. Krueger signed a lucrative deal with the Cleveland Browns, while Ellerbe signed with the Miami Dolphins. Baltimore was able to lure at least one free agent to Charm City. Veteran defensive tackle Chris Canty joined the Ravens on the first day of free agency.
3/7/13: Everyone knew that Joe Flacco was going to get paid following the Super Bowl victory, where he played flawlessly throughout the playoffs. Flacco was even asked about it in the post-game interview following the big win. The Ravens came through for Flacco, rewarding him with a six year, $120 million contract. Flacco got a $29 million signing bonus and $52 million guaranteed. $51 million will be paid in the first two years of the contract. The deal makes Flacco the highest paid player in the NFL, and certainly raises the bar elite quarterbacks when their contracts come due.
2/28/13: The Ravens are sawing goodbye to one of their cornerstones, Matt Birk. Birk announced his retirement after 15 years in the NFL as one of the best offensive linemen in the league. He was drafted in the sixth round out of Harvard by Minnesota. He flourished in the Vikings system for 11 seasons before moving over to Baltimore for the final four years of his career. Birk made six Pro-Bowls in his career, as well as won the Super Bowl a few weeks ago, and was honored last season for his extensive community service work, which promotes additional reading for football players.
2/21/13: No one expects quarterback Joe Flacco to wear anything but a Ravens jersey next season. He is technically a free agent, but Baltimore is expected to retain him either through a new contract or the franchise tag. Flacco and the Ravens did not come to an agreement last summer on an extension. Then Flacco led the team to the Super Bowl. So his value is as high as it ever will be. His agent is meeting with the Ravens at the Combine to discuss a new deal. If that cannot be reached, then Flacco is in line to make $20 million next year under the franchise tag. Either way, it is good to be Joe Flacco these days.
2/14/13: After winning the Super Bowl and bringing the first championship to Baltimore in a decade, the big question facing the Ravens is what to do with Joe Flacco. It is certain that the team will keep him, but just how is up for debate. His rookie contract expired with the ending of the game, and Flacco's agent is seeking a contract that will eclipse both Drew Breese and Peyton Manning (at $20 million and $18 million average per year). The Ravens can franchise tag Flacco, which would cost $14.6 million next season, but that is not the long-term solution that both sides want.
2/7/13: The Baltimore Ravens are the new Super Bowl Champions. The Ravens got off to a very strong start, building up a 21-6 halftime lead. Jacoby Jones returned the opening kickoff of the second half 108 yards, a new NFL record for any game, for a touchdown, giving the Ravens a seemingly insurmountable lead. Then the lights went out. For 35 minutes. Once power was restored, San Francisco stormed back to make it an eight point game. The Ravens were able to score two more field goals and took an intentional safety to seal the game. Joe Flacco continued his historic playoff run and was named the game's MVP.
1/31/13: The Ravens arrived in New Orleans for th e Super Bowl on Sunday, giving them an off day before Media Day on Tuesday. Baltimore is trying to win their first Super Bowl in 12 years, when they humiliated the Kerry Collins and the New York Giants behind a stifling defense. Linebacker Ray Lewis is the lone remnant from that team, and he says that this will be his last game. The biggest difference from that team is that this one actually has an offense. Joe Flacco has best quarterback statistically throughout the playoffs, and Ray Rice is an elite runningback that can keep defenses honest. The line has the Ravens as underdogs by 4.5 points.
1/24/13: The Ravens are heading back to the Super Bowl for the first since 2001. Baltimore won that game against the Giants, and look to do the same against San Francisco on the first Sunday in February. The Ravens scored 21 points in the second half against New England and took control of the AFC Championship Game in Foxborough. Joe Flacco has been the best quarterback in the playoffs this year, improving upon and up and down season. But this will be the final game of Ray Lewis' career, win or lose, as he plans on retiring at season's end.
1/17/13: Baltimore pulled the upset of the weekend, going into Denver and defeating the number one seed Denver Broncos in the Divisional Round. The teams matched scores in each quarter, ending regulation and the first overtime tied at 35 points apiece. The Ravens defense, inspired by the outgoing Ray Lewis, forced two Peyton Manning interceptions and a fumble. Not to be outdone, Joe Flacco threw for 331 yards and 3 TDs in his best postseason game. The second interception was early in the second overtime, and gave Baltimore excellent field position. Justin Tucker then nailed a 47 yard field goal to end this instant classic of a game.
1/10/13: Long time Ravens linebacker and heart of the team, Ray Lewis, announced that he would retire at the end of the season, so the home playoff game against the Colts would be his last at home. Lewis and the Ravens made it memorable by hounding and confusing Andrew Luck and Indy all night en route to an easy 24-9 victory. WR Anquan Boldin set a franchise record with 145 yards receiving and the clinching touchdown. Baltimore now has a chance at revenge. The Ravens hosted the Broncos a few weeks ago and were completely embarrassed. Now the team will head out to Denver to take on the number one seed in the AFC.
1/13/2013: Baltimore finished their regular season on the road against division rival Cincinnati. Since Baltimore lost for of their last five games, the team was out of contention for homefield advantage or a bye week. Instead, the Ravens were pretty much locked into the number four seed. The Bengals pulled out a 23-17 win, but the game was more about staying healthy and preparing for the playoffs than anything else. Baltimore returns home to host upstart Indianapolis in the Wild Card Round the coming Sunday. Indy comes in having just defeated the Houston Texans and denying them a bye week.
12/27/12: The Baltimore Ravens finally righted the ship, using the flatlining New York Giants as their final steppingston in clinching the AFC North title. Joe Flacco and the Ravens' offense emerged from hibernation long enough to rack up over 300 yards in the air and two touchdowns. Both Bernard Pierce and Ray Rice had over 100 yards on the ground, and place kicker Justin Tucker added four feildgoals as the Ravens beat up on the Giants 33-14 at home. With the division wrapped up, the Ravens are likely locked into the fourth seed and will travel to Cincinnati for the last game of the regular season.
12/20/12: The once fearsome Ravens have shrunk in the past several weeks, most recently losing 34-17 at home to the Denver Broncos in a possible playoff preview. The Ravens have now lost three straight games, including two in a row at home for the first time since 2007. New Offensive Coordinator Jim Caldwell did not fare any better than his predecessor, Cam Cameron. The Ravens scored two touchdowns in garbage time making the final score look closer than it actually was. The Ravens are 9-5 and still lead the AFC North, but have to host a desparate New York Giants team this Sunday.
12/13/12: Baltimore made the 35 mile trip to DC to play the Redskins in one of the most anticipated games of the season last Sunday. Baltimore was defeated 31-28 in overtime, meaning the Ravens have lost two in a row. Since both the Bengals and Steelers lost, Baltimore remains in first place in the AFC North, but will need some help to get a bye or homefield advantage in the playoffs. The Ravens offense struggled at times again, and Offensive Coordinator Cam Cameron was fired a day after the loss. The Ravens get a chance at redemption this Sunday when they host the Denver Broncos in a possible AFC playoff preview.
12/6/12: Losing is always disappointing. Losing to your arch rival is heart wrenching. Losing to your arch rival when you have a seven point lead in the fourth quarter is the type of loss that can send a team into a tailspin (see: San Diego against Denver a few weeks ago). Quarterback Joe Flacco only managed 188 yards and one touchdown against the depleted Steelers, and Ray Rice ran for less than 80 yards. Baltimore still leads the AFC North by two games, but must regroup quickly for their next game at Washington, who soundly beat the defending champion New York Giants on Monday.
12/1/2012: Well as you've surely heard by now, the Ravens not only showed up, but they pulled out a 16-13 overtime victory that should not have happened under any circumstances. The Ravens started off slow, facing a 10 point deficit at the halftime point of the game. The Ravens didn't score until early in the third quarter on a Justin Tucker field goal. Things didn't get really interesting until the Ravens clawed to within a field goal on a Dennis Pitta 4 yard touchdown catch.
After a defensive hold the Ravens had the ball in the waning minutes of the game. Certain circumstances led the Ravens to face a 4th and 29, a virtually impossible scenario under any situation. With Joe Flacco lined up in the shotgun, he dumped off a pass to Ray Rice of all things. For any normal player, the play would have been dead the Ravens sent home. However Rice made almost all 11 members of the Charger defense miss on a miracle 30 yard catch. That put the Ravens into position for Justin Tucker to drill a 38 yard field goal as time expired to send the game into overtime. It took almost the entire OT period, but Tucker hit another field for the Ravens to secure the win.
Next up for the 9-2 Ravens is a home game against arch-nemesis Pittsburg, with a chance to almost certainly seal the division.
11/24/2012: The Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers in engaged in another tooth-and-nail game that came down to the waning seconds. Sounds familiar? You bet. The Ravens visited the hostile territory of Heinz Field looking to solidify their stranglehold on the AFC North. In their way were the Steelers, who have rebounded from a shaky start to the season and had sights dead set on toppling the Ravens and gaining a tie on the division lead.
In the end, the Ravens proved victorious in a hard hitting affair where defense once again ruled the day. The final scored read 13-10 and it was every bit as close it appears. The Steelers, without QB Ben Roethlisberger due to a rib and shoulder injury, had to make do with what they had. Bryon Leftwich was game, as he took big hits the entire game but was still standing by the final whistle. Even better, he showed some surprising legs on a 31 yard gallop into the end zone in the first quarter that gave the Steelers an early lead.
Both teams pretty much struggled to move the ball after that. In a razor-close rivalry like this, it's not surprising that the game's decisive strike came on special teams. Jacoby Jones returned a punt 63 yards for the Raven's only touchdown of the game and gave them the lead in the first quarter. That is a lead the Ravens would not give up for the rest of the game. With the win, the Ravens move a full two games ahead of the Steelers and look destined for a division title.
11/17/2012: Following the beating the Ravens took against the Texans three weeks ago, it was prudent that they right the ship before embarking on a tough stretch of games that would make or break their season. Last week the Browns proved to be a tough challenge on the road, as the Ravens had to rally to escape with a win. This week the Oakland Raiders have come to town with the Ravens needing an impressive performance to demonstrate they are still Super Bowl contenders.
The Ravens certainly proved a few things when they played the Raiders at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. The Ravens racked up a franchise record 55 points against the hapless Raiders. Joe Flacco passed for over 300 yards to go along with three touchdowns. Ray Rice had an off day with only 35 yards on the ground; however he did make up for it with a touchdown.
On defense, the Ravens still struggled, giving up yards by the bundle, but to their credit they took advantage of mishaps by the Raiders to only give up 20 points. Paul Kruger had perhaps a breakout game for the season with two sacks along with a short interception.
The Ravens seemed to pull out all the stops for this game, including a touchdown run by punter Sam Koch, who as holding on the fake field goal. Jacoby Jones put the icing on the cake with a 105 yard touchdown return in the fourth quarter. Now the Ravens are looking at an absolutely pivotal game against the Steelers in week eleven's Sunday game of the week.
11/10/2012: The Ravens beat the Browns in Cleveland 25-15 in a victory last Sunday. In a game that was a bit closer than many would have thought however. But then again this shows how hard it is to win a home game in the AFC North.
The Raven's defense looked slightly improved from their previous performances, holding the Browns to five field goals and no touchdowns. They also managed to pick of Cleveland QB Brandon Weeden two times. The struggles on the ground continued however, as Trent Richardson carved up the much criticized Baltimore front line defense with 105 yards.
On the offensive side of the ball, QB Joe Flacco had a productive day completing 15 of 24 passes with one touchdown. Ray Rice also got a heavier workload than he has in recent weeks, getting 25 carries to rack up 98 yards.
A few days after the win though, the Ravens received their best news of the week. Ray Lewis has rejoined the team in a spectator capacity. He is rehabbing aggressively and has vowed to return. It is still doubtful whether he can complete a miracle recovery, but his exemption on the IR list allows him to. At 6-2 the Ravens are in a good spot on top of the division, but the Steelers are breathing down their necks after a huge win against the Giants. With those two meetings meeting twice in the latter half of the season, expect the division to once again come down to the wire.
9/27/12 ? With the return of the regular NFL referees, the focus was back on the game itself. Joe Flacco threw for 356 yards and a touchdown and rushed for one in the Baltimore Ravens 23-16 victory over the Cleveland Browns. Ravens wide receivers Anquan Boldin caught 9 passes for 131 yards and Torrey Smith caught 6 balls for 97 yards and a touchdown. The Ravens defense also added to the score when cornerback Cary Williams returned an interception from Browns QB Brandon Weeden (25/52 320 yards) 63 yards for a touchdown. The Browns had a chance late in the game to tie it. But, Weeden?s pass to the endzone was too deep and out of the reach of all his receivers.
9/22/12 ? Down 13-0 at the end of the first quarter, things were looking grim for the Baltimore Ravens. But, what happened after that showed the resiliency and toughness of the Ravens and why many have them going to the Super Bowl this year. Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith led the comeback, catching six balls for 127 yards en route to a 31-30 Baltimore win over the New England Patriots. After throwing an interception early in the game, Baltimore QB Joe Flacco rebounded nicely passing for 382 yards and three touchdowns. Down 30-28, Flacco drove down the field to set-up a 27-yard field goal attempt. Last season, during the AFC Championship game, Flacco drove the Ravens down the field against the Patriots only to have kicker Billy Cundiff miss what would have been the game-tying field goal. Rookie Jason Tucker, the one who took the job away from Cundiff, drove his kick through the uprights to give the Ravens a win.
Linebacker Terrell Suggs may have injured his Achilles playing basketball. Suggs told the team the injury occurred while he was practicing his conditioning tests, but witnesses have said they saw Suggs limp away from a pick up basketball game days before Suggs said he suffered the injury. The Ravens are not concerned where Suggs' Achilles was injured, but how long it will take Suggs to recover. The typical Achilles take nine to twelve months to heal, but Suggs has been adamant telling news sources he will be able return to the field at some point this season.
5/3/12 - Baltimore Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs tore his Achilles tendon running a conditioning drill in Arizona on Saturday. Suggs informed ESPN on Thursday and believes he can return by the middle of the 2012 season. The 2012 NFL Defensive Player of the year will undergo surgery next week and expects to recover from the injury in four to six months. A study by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons in 2006 show that even though the general length of time for recovery is four to six months, the average return to playing in an NFL game is 11 months. Still, Suggs believes he can come back in the middle of the season. Suggs had 70 tackles and 14 sacks last year also forcing seven fumbles and two interceptions. He was the best player in a Ravens defense, which was No. 3 overall in the NFL.
The Ravens' first season was in 1996, and just four years later, they were Super Bowl Champions in the 2000 season. The Ravens play at beautiful M&T; Bank Stadium, which offers one of the best open-air football experiences in the league and is just walking distance from the Inner Harbor. The Ravens are known for their great defensive play, led by future Hall of Famers Ray Lewis and Ed Reed. If you are a fan of hard-hitting defense, getting Ravens tickets will give you as good a defensive football experience as you can get in the NFL.
Baltimore Ravens Tickets - The Players
When facing Ed Reed, Ray Lewis and Terrell Suggs on the defensive side of the ball, you know its going to be tough to score. When you have Joe Flacco under center with Anquan Boldin, Ray Rice to get the ball to you know its going to be tough to stop them. This combination of offense and defense makes the Ravens a tough competitor throughout the league. However they may need to make one or two more moves to keep up with the flow of talent that is emerging around the league. Age will catch up to these players. Its time to acquire some young talent to keep fresh legs on the field at all times.

Amazing Dress
I wore it for my destination wedding in Mexico and it made me feel so pretty! it has all the features I was looking for in a dress: Its classy, sexy, simple yet beautiful, elegant and the bonus is that its super easy to wear, perfect for a beach wedding. I loved the unique and sexy cut-outs on the back. I ordered online and when it arrived I fell in love with it and it was way beyond my expectations! I am a petite woman and this dress suit me/my personality perfectly. I got a size 2, it needed to be taken in on the hip area but tailor said it would mess up the shape, so I just wore it like that without having any other alteration but making the length shorter. This dress made me feel like a princess, I felt cute, sexy, beautiful and elegant in it. I truly recommend it. The fabric is so nice and of good quality. Everybody at the wedding loved it!
March 6, 2013
Perfect dress for me
The dress was perfect for what I wanted. It was sexy, classy, and not very heavy. I was able to dance, eat, and flail my arms without being restricted.
I had to be conscious of what I ate before the wedding to not get any extra back fat, just because the dress can accentuate it.
March 4, 2013
Awesome dress....
This dress is amazing.....however with the back being pretty open this is not a dress for someone who isn't in shape. Nothing worse then back fat at a wedding. It fits like a dream....the only thing is unless you are busty it will have to be taken in. And with the dress being so simple yet elegant you really do not need to do much with it. I am having a fall wedding and it is very light weight.
January 21, 2013
My beautiful dress
This was the dress I wore on my wedding day, I absolutely love it! It fit amazing and was very easy to pair with my vail, tiara, and shoes. I wouldn't trade it! I had a December indoors wedding and this dress was amazing

Standard Time is GMT + 4
In little more than 30 years the UAE has achieved remarkable progress from a group of small neighbouring communities to a prosperous and modern commercial centre whose continually changing skyline is beginning to rival anything in the Middle East. The UAE has a vibrant free economy, a significant proportion of its revenues arising from exports of oil and gas. Successful efforts have been made to diversify, away from dependence on hydrocarbons and a solid industrial base has been created, together with a very strong services sector. The establishment of free zones has been an important feature of this diversification policy and reform of property laws gave a major boost to real estate and tourism sectors.
Despite the global financial crisis resulting in an inevitable contraction in 2009, the UAE economy remains robust, shielded by signify cant overseas financial assets acquired during the period of booming oil revenues. Substantial public expenditure, made possible by its assets, combined with strong fundamentals and sound fiscal policies, to minimise the impact of the crisis and receding petrodollar income on the UAE's economy. It has speeded up its recovery in 2010. In particular, the UAE decided to maintain high investment budgets, especially for core long-term infrastructure projects, in order to stimulate growth and steer the economy away from recession. The UAE has obviously not been totally insulated from the reverberations of the global recession and in this regard cargo handler DP World revealed that business at its ports dropped ten per cent in the fi rst half of 2009 as the shipping industry struggled through the downturn.
Oil & Gas
The UAE is the world's third largest exporter of crude oil and, as of February 2009, oil production was 2.223 million barrels a day. Oil reserves were 97.8 billion barrels, the sixth largest reserves in the world. Abu Dhabi holds 92.2 billion barrels or 94% of the UAE total. Meanwhile, natural gas reserves are 6 trillion cubic metres, which is the fifth largest in the world, according to official sources. The UAE is an increasingly attractive place to do business and, despite the global downturn of 2009, considerable opportunities continue to emerge in each of the emirates. Clearly Dubai and Abu Dhabi are the big attractions, but investors are now increasingly looking further afield towards the emerging markets of the smaller emirates such as Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah. Visitors are drawn towards the open, low-tax and robust economy, stable market, the ease of doing business, the essential back up provided by first rate infrastructure, the transparent regulatory system and the legal protection offered in particular to intellectual property rights.
Despite the global slowdown, the UAE continued to be one of the most active construction markets in the world with more than 750 active projects in construction and 450 recently completed, according to a report by Dubai-based research house Proleads Global issued in July 2009. Although more than 400 projects with a total value in excess of $300 billion had been placed on hold or withdrawn; the report forecasts stability returning to the sector in 2009 with some recovery in cash flow in 2010. Considerable building activities are taking place across the emirates. Abu Dhabi still has a major shortage of residential units and work on infrastructure projects such as new roads, the metro and Khalifa Port, as well as airports and new industrial areas, has proceeded without delay. Abu Dhabi was considering allowing 100 per cent foreign ownership of some projects, the chairman of the Department of Economic Development stated. "We feel strongly inclined to grant 100 per cent ownership to foreigners in new and old industries as well as other projects," Nasser Ahmed Al Kuwaiti told Emirates Business on 24 May 2009. Meanwhile, the number of contractors and consultants entering Abu Dhabi increased according to a report issued by the Directorate of Contractors' Classification and Consultants' Registration at the Department of Economic Development (DED), which said that the construction sector in Abu Dhabi witnessed a major development during the fi rst half of 2009. The construction sector in Ras Al Khaimah is to be better regulated under a new law issued by H H Sheikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi, Crown Prince and Deputy Ruler of Ras Al Khaimah.. Provisions of law no 1 of 2009 for regulating buildings in RAK will be applicable to all buildings with the exception of those that come under a special decree or resolution. The law covers a wide range of topics dealing with buildings starting from designs, construction license, architectural standards and specifications, additions, expansions, maintenance and safety and security systems up to penalties for breaching provisions of the law.
The UAE compares favourably internationally in terms of its ICT services recording high rates of usage as the country's ICT sector shows continuing rapid growth. The dynamism in the sector is attributed largely to the introduction of competition, as well as the adoption of international best practices and governance. The UAE ranked first among Arab countries in internet user rate, international internet bandwidth rates, the importance of ICT to the government's vision of the future, personal computer rates, ICT use and government efficiency; e-government, government prioritisation of ICT, laws relating to ICT, and the number of telephone lines, according to the Global Information Technology Report 2007 – 2008, released in March 2009 by the World Economic Forum and based on estimates of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The UAE also ranked second among the Arab countries in terms of: high-speed monthly broadband subscription, lowest cost of broadband, the availability of government online services, and secure internet servers. Internationally, the UAE ranked first worldwide on the cost of mobile telephone call and on residential monthly telephone subscriptions. In other areas, the UAE ranks worldwide as follows: fourth on the importance of ICT to government vision of the future, sixth on government success in ICT promotion, seventh on government prioritization of ICT, ninth on ICT use and government efficiency, 10
on mobile telephone subscribers rate, 10th on business telephone connection charge, and 14th on residential telephone connection charge.
Free Zones
Each of the emirates now has its own free zones, although the majority are in Dubai. All free zones in the UAE are governed by the independent Free Zone Authority (FZA) which is also the agency responsible for issuing operating licences and assisting companies with establishing their business. Dubai is the home to a majority of the free zones, including the famous Jebel Ali, the Airport Free Zone, Dubai Internet City and Dubai Healthcare City. More specialist free zones are planned catering for specific sectors including textile, energy and design cities. Setting up business in one of the UAE's many Free Trade Zones (FTZs) is widely seen as an attractive option for foreign investors. The concessions offered to investors in the free zones have led to their success in attracting a large number of companies and foreign direct investment. In turn, this success has had the positive effect of expanding net non-oil exports.
Tourism sector officials in Abu Dhabi reported that the emirate was becoming an important tourism hub in the Gulf and Middle East due to its rich tourism varieties and capability to provide unprecedented entertainment, culture, artistic, musical, fairs and other competitive services in the region. In addition, Abu Dhabi said that it was eyeing a 59% growth in cruise passenger arrivals in the 2009/2010 season. Forecasts by the Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority (ADTA) point to some 199,113 arrivalsin the season, which runs from end of November to beginning of May.
Meanwhile, Sharjah, widely seen as the UAE's cultural capital, was holding its position as a leading destination for cultural, heritage and family tourism worldwide.
The UAE has demonstrated an increased interest in the development of organic farming in recent years. This is largely because traditional farming methods are widely seen as impractical to meet the needs of the growing population. The first internationally recognised organic farm in Abu Dhabi was certified to European standards in 2007 and since then the sector has been growing. The land under organic cultivation is set to double against the backdrop of increasing support and encouragement from UAE public agencies keen to promote the sector. The total area under organic farming would increase to 3,000 acres as the demand for natural food products is on the rise, said industry experts. They said the focus on organic farming had come at a time when the market for organic and natural food products started picking up in the UAE as well as in the region. According to global data, the Middle East is considered to be the fastest growing market for natural and organic foods. On current estimates, the global market for these green alternatives to conventional food is to the tune of $220bn. The main domestically grown crops in the UAE are dates, tomatoes, melons, cucumbers, lettuce, camel milk, Akkawi cheese, eggplants and celery. The UAE imports most of its basic food needs including sugar, dairy products, meat, rice, tea, coffee, poultry, wheat flour and fruit.

VW plans extra shifts to meet demand for new Golf
The Golf is Europe's best-selling car. |
FRANKFURT (Bloomberg) -- Volkswagen says it is planning additional production to meet demand for the latest version of its Golf hatchback, which went on sale at the end of last year.
Orders for the seventh-generation model, which arrived in showrooms in Germany in November, have exceeded 100,000 cars, the company said.
The main Wolfsburg factory in Germany will add three Saturday shifts before the end of March to build 2,000 additional cars, the company said.
The Golf is Europe's best-selling car but sales are taking a hit in the region. European sales of the Golf fell by 32 percent to 22,698 in December compared with the same month in 2011, according to market researchers JATO Dynamics. Full-year sales were down 11 percent to 485,742, according to JATO.
On Wednesday, Ferdinand Dudenhoeffer, director of the Center for Automotive Research at the University of Duisburg-Essen, said that German sales of the Golf fell to 16,537 in the final two months of 2012, a 17-year low, despite the company offering bonuses to its dealers to help boost sales.
According to media reports, VW said the comparison with previous years was ''unfair'' since the new Golf was in its start-up phase and sales only began in the market on Nov. 10, making November a shorter sales month. It also said it was not yet offering the variant range available with previous generations of the compact.
The Golf has led sales in Europe for the past nine years, VW said. Volkswagen may start to take a hit from low demand in the region as it heads into its sixth consecutive year of decline.
The VW brand's sales in Germany, the biggest market in Europe, fell 23 percent in December amid a 16 percent drop industrywide in the country, according to the federal motor vehicle office KBA.
Golf and Jetta models continued to lead sales in the compact segment in Germany last year, but deliveries fell 6.7 percent to 240,700, the KBA added.

"Must Have" Internet Marketing Tools & Services
June 6th, 2008 | 61 commentsUpdated March 2013. Just about every day I receive an email, ticket, comment etc. asking what tool or service I use for "xyz."
I've been wanting to offer a list for a while and this is as good a time as any. The following list of Internet Marketing tools is composed of the tools I use on a somewhat regular basis. There are others I use as well, but less frequently.
Here they are in no particular order:
1. AccurankTracker – By far the best search engine rank tracker on the market. 100% accurate, with country based proxy support, reporting and more.
2. Article Builder – One of Jonathan Leger's latest products and also one of his absolute best. Instant, unique content in 75+ niches! This is the perfect content solution. The only downside is that it doesn't cover every niche, but for those niches it does cover (click the link to see the list) you get high quality content at the push of a button!
3. DeepLinkerPro V2.0 – Of course I'm a little biased since I own half of this, but DLP is honestly the best and most affordable directory submitter on the market! Never use just DLP, or just any one other, backlink source to promote your site, but using DLP to obtain directory links works perfectly and is very effective.
4. Tweet Adder – This is one of my BEST investments in the 7+ years I've been working online! That is NOT an exaggeration. I LOVE this tool! I have multiplied my twitter following for many niches that I target with LASER targeted followers. This tool has without a doubt made me ALOT of money!
5. Keyword Canine – Once again, I could be a little biased since this is a partnership between me and Jonathan Leger, but I'm really not I can honest say that I would love this tool whether I was associated with it or not. In-depth and ACCURATE competition analysis, backlink analysis, backlink boosts, niche finding and more! KC is turning into a standard IM product and for good reason. People love it!
6. oDesk – The BEST place to find and manage workers. Whether you need developers, designers, writers, link builders or something else, you will find plenty of hard workers for cheap at oDesk. It's structured in a great way as well that takes screenshots of your workers computer screen to prevent fraud. Pricing is fair… all around awesome. I use it for everything.
7. Dropbox – I use this daily for both business and personal. It allows me to access all of my important files no matter where I am and no matter what system I am on. It also allows me to always have a backup of my important files.
8. Camtasia Studio – This is a must-have for any serious Internet Marketer. Video is getting bigger and bigger because it works. Camtasia is a very user-friendly yet powerful screencast software that lets you easily create videos of your screen.
9. Screencast – By the same makers of Camtasia, I just recently started using this to send quick and easy instructional videos to my developers, designers etc. It's an easy way to share any kind of video quickly and easily by sharing a short URL.
There are now 8 "must have" tools/services on my list. If I find more that I believe to be "must have" I will add them here.

6th June, 2008 at 4:15 pmMany thanks again Josh, as usual I love reading all your newsletters, please do keep them coming!
Many thanks!
I've used RoboForm until just recently. I had to give it up simply because I moved over to a Mac. However, there's an equivelent for Mac (1Password) that rocks just as well. Don't know what 'd do without these tools.Camtasia:
Again, used it until I got my Mac last month. Now I'm about to purchase ScreenFlow…which looks to be even better than Camtasia!Ed
Here's another tool I use daily:
Evernote. This note taking / screen clipping hybrid web / desktop application simply ROCKS!!! I can even take pics of hand written notes and Evernote OCR's the text in the images and makes it searchable.
Hook it into Jott, and you can speak your notes via phone and they go right to your Evernote account.
Powerful stuff.
I was convinced to get Roboform by being locked out of a couple of my websites and blogs simply by losing the login data.
Never again I promised my self and Roboform has helped me ever since.
Josh another tool – off the I.M. track is Carbonite. It is an Online back up facility and it backs up automatically.
My laptop had Carbonite protection and had a hard disc crash. I bought a new desk top and restored the files to the new computer! Losing a whole hard drive is too awful to contemplate!

6th June, 2008 at 4:28 pmJosh – another great free tool I use very often for keyword research is Google's own External Keyword Tool.
For keeping track of different domains and keyword rankings, I use Domain Dashboard which is a real time saver if you have anything more than 20 domains or so.
@ Edward – I think alot of people are moving over to Mac. The only reason I haven't is that exact issue; compatibility.
Thanks for the recommendation on Evernote. I added it to the post. Looks interesting. I've actually been looking for something like that.
@ Alex – Yep, RoboForm is a huge time saver and stress reducer
Thanks for the recommendation. I've added to the post.
@ Hock – I've heard of Domain Dashboard before. Looking into that now. Thanks for the recommendation. Added it to the post.
Robert Hedge
6th June, 2008 at 4:50 pmJosh, – We do share a couple of your programs. RoboForm I could not live without and I agree with you that IAWP is a great product.
Another small program I have recently got, solves the clipboard problem. In that the clipboard will only save one item and it is so easy to copy over the saved one. ClipMagic allows you more than one and you can do so much more with this useful bit of software.
All the Best – Rob
Cool post Josh!
Screenflow hands down! Way better than camtasia plus you'll feel a lot cooler using it because you're on a Mac
Also another really cool tool that I use is Summize for Twitter. It's great for market research, seeing what people are talking about, great if you're a blogger to meet a lot of other bloggers and makes the twitter experience a lot more effective!
6th June, 2008 at 6:06 pmThis isn't really an IM tool, per se, but I really like Stay on Focus. It's a little tool that you can set up to remind you every ten minutes or half hour (or whatever time frame you want) to remind you to get back to work. It makes it easy to stay on task.
I use quite a few of those tools. Roboform is really good, you can use this for everything when filling out some type of form. APR is good, even though I like UAW better, because it submits for me unique articles. Will have to check out the others you mention.
Steve -
This is a fabulous post Josh … everyone sharing their tools & usage ideas which bnefits all readers. Well done.
I'd like to recommend Mozy.com for backups. At just $5/month for "unlimited backups" it (or a similar service) is an absolute must for everyone.
Hard disk failure due to faults or accidents is an inevitable fact of life. People don't have to learn the backup lesson the hard way!
Great list! I use the SEOQuake Toolbar for Firefox and love it. When I am checking PR, Links, etc on sites that I own or am interested in buying, I just turn it on and it gives some really good data. I think it is similar to the SEO for Firefox that you have listed, but not sure.
I also use Freshdrop and have had some great success with it. The only things I really concern myself with is the age of the domain and then check it out from there. I have snagged some really good sites in the last month for my niche sites and they have taken off pretty good!

@ Robert – Yeah, RoboForm is great. The only problem is that when I'm on another system I forget all of my passwords
@ Alejandro – Thanks. I guess ScreenFlow is Camtasia of Mac. I've been hearing more and more people switching to Mac. Maybe I should look into it.
@ Courtney – I believe I found what you're speaking of, but there are server issues. Can you verify I have the correct link? Thanks.
@ Steve – I've been hearing more and more about UAW. Hopefully it isn't submitting them without the user looking over them first?
@ Sami – Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying it
I need to get something like that. Right now I'm just putting important files on an external hard drive manually. Sounds interesting.
I hope you don't mind, I removed your other link. Nothing personal, I'm just not a big fan of those tools these days.
@ Elliott – Sounds similar, but worth a look, thanks!
@ Roy – Cat got your fingers?
6th June, 2008 at 7:58 pmCommentKahuna is awesome. It's basically a way to get links on blogs that allow follow, only it's not spammy…you can be completely relevant.
I have to ask, though, when you are using the SEO firefox addon, does the yahoo directory thing mean that's how many links it has pointing to the page? How do you know how many links?
Thanks! -
I use Article Post Robot and it is very good. Especially, its feature that allows you to randomly modify the title and and offer different variations of portions of the text so that it comes out as multiple articles.
However, it's getting to be a little long in tooth and is overdue for an upgrade. A nice modification would be to provide the ability to automatically login to new article sites.
Free blog finder is a very good tool for finding blogs in your niche. It doesn't allow for insuring that blogs have been posted recently but it finds a lot of good ones.
Julia Gulevitch has a very good free Directory Submitter.
I have used Camtasia and it's very good. However, it needs to be more seamless in providing videos for YouTube.
@ Shaun – Thanks for the recommendation, but I don't support dofollow search software. I understand that it doesn't have to be used as a spam tool, and this isn't personal, but too many people use these tools for the wrong reason.
Feel free to leave another recommendation on another type of tool you enjoy and I'll get your link up there, sorry about that.
To answer your question; It shows how many pages on the site are included in the Yahoo Directory (dir.yahoo.com.) But it also shows you how many links are pointing to the site (not page) according to Yahoo Site Explorer (Y! Links).\
@ Computer Doc – I've head a few others say APR needs updated too. I don't see the need myself, but updates are always nice. I just insert all of logins once and they are all there for good. Unless you're submitting to hundreds of sites, which is a bad idea to begin with, I don't see an issue with the logins?
Thanks for the recommendation on free blog finder, but I don't support dofollow search software. I understand that it doesn't have to be used as a spam tool, and this isn't personal, but too many people use these tools for the wrong reason.

6th June, 2008 at 9:40 pmI actually love the RoboForm software myself. I use it all of the time and it takes all the menial everyday tasks that I have to perform on my computer daily and shortens them extremely! What once took me fifteen minutes to complete now takes me only one second because RoboForm does the same task with just one click. In fact I wrote a Report about a lot of RoboForm's capabilities for use that aren't even touched on in the User's Manual for RoboForm. You can get that Report here:
http://www.booksbonkers.com/TheRoboFormReport!.html -
6th June, 2008 at 11:18 pmThis is a great. I also use a tool regularly, which is: http://www.googlerankings.com/. It's used to check the ranking in the search result against some key words. What make it different with others SERPs tools is that it will allow you see whether your site is listed in top 1000

7th June, 2008 at 3:36 amHi, Josh
Gistweb.com saves me a bunch of time doing basic research. I give it a topic or question and it makes a fairly readable short article. It's free and fast.
Seobook is full of useful tools.
I use Google's adwords traffic estimator toolbox for a lot of traffic guestimates, but most importantly, for a keyword's season. I used to use nichebot for that.
The sandbox will also tell you what Google thinks a specified page is about.
hmms, still counting how many do I have and which I I actually use. Sometimes we get so woke up on new gadget that we bought or download before we started to use it fully or even finish the instruction a new gadget come out faster and better, so now I decide to stick to the basic.
Dominic Valentine
7th June, 2008 at 11:59 amI'd recommend, as a basic research tool
It works the same as standard Wordtracker in that you fill in your keyword and hit the button but then the little icon to the right gives a breakdown of Google search data and Trend graphs also links to affiliate and exact match data on Google. -
Dominic Valentine
7th June, 2008 at 12:02 pmSorry Josh
I would laso recommend the web2.0 tools such as Stumbleupon and Digg as useful tools to boost rankings.
The great thing is they are available as Firefox add-ons..takes a lot of strain out of daily business.
I would also recommend social networking tools but they may be "dofollow" products so I won't name them here.
Thanks Josh -
A good free tool for mindmapping and creating blueprints is Edraw. http://www.edrawsoft.com/freemind.php

7th June, 2008 at 8:16 pmWell this certainly goes in the "reference file"; awesome list!
Most of which I've never heard of but have been looking for (that makes sense if ya think about it).

8th June, 2008 at 2:18 amThis a great post that cuts to the chase on what is working for you. Also, thanks also for the comment (the first) at my new blog. Best. Rich W.
9th June, 2008 at 11:14 amHi Josh
I've just started using the iMacro addon for IE/Firefox which looks really good.
With a bit of effort I've managed to use it to create an article submission script for the 50 or so article directories that I'm using.
It's not any competition for APR because you need to do a bit more setup, but it is still a timesaver over submitting manually. This application of iMacro is for those people who are really "careful" with money (In the UK this means the type of people who never buy you a drink!)
It would also be good for the type of things that you automate with Roboform. I would suggest using the IE version though because I think I discovered a couple of bugs with the latest Firefox release.
10th June, 2008 at 5:12 pmHey guys, I was just wondering if anyone knows of a free video recording tool, like Camtasia Studio. I downloaded the Camtasia free trial, and I actually really like it. It's just that, at the moment, I don't have the budget for that product. So I'm hoping there may be a free one of some decent quality. Thanks.
P.S. Josh, this is my first comment on your blog, but I've been keeping up with you for quite awhile. I have to say, you are clearly one of the best Internet Marketers on the Internet. I truly mean that and appreciate your work.
Matthew… there is an open source version of Camtasia… it's called CamStudio. It sounds like what you might be looking for at this point…
Here's one url for Cam Studio…
Brian Gidda
11th June, 2008 at 6:52 amoops… bad link
try this one for Cam Studio… http://camstudio.org/
Thanks for all the recommendations everyone. I've added them all to the post. If I missed any just let me know.
27th June, 2008 at 6:59 amHi Josh,
I think you just need to add this one in, it's like an all in one cheat tool for researching niches.
You can see the CPC, trend, even your competition and how they rank organically or non-organically in the SEs
It rocks, bro.
PS: i noticed no one had suggested this yet so I'm going to pounce on this!

"Julia Gulevitch has a very good free Directory Submitter."
Actually, it is Fast Blog Finder, by G-Lock Software. There's a free and a paid version of it. Works pretty smooth. I use it along with Comment Kahuna, which is free.
I agree that G-Lock's Directory Submitter is also a great way to submit your newly born websites to website directories rather than having to pay someone (if you're on a budget). The free version allows for 150 submissions. The paid version for unlimited.
25th November, 2008 at 5:03 pmAwesome list of articles.Subscription to ur site has helped me gain so much of knowledge.
I have been using Directory Submitter for sometime now.
It is seamless and has good directory list with google pr and alexa rankings -

25th January, 2009 at 10:20 pmJosh,
Thanks for your list. It is interesting that a couple of my favorites are in you list. I will be trying another one or two from your list soon.Molly
Hi Josh,
Are you still recommending Automatic Article Submitter? (vs Article Post Robot)
Karim -
Hi Karim,
Yes, I am still using and recommending AAS highly.
Twitter for Business
9th November, 2009 at 1:13 amGreat stuff Josh. I hadn't heard of the Article Submitter but will definitely be checking this out.
I'll also be using Rank Checker to promote my sites.
For anyone who wants to try out a good bit of screen recording software before they buy Camtasia, there's a good one available at CamStudio.org.
Thanks again for the great post. I've tweeted this from @BYFollowers.
Ken Morgan
4th December, 2009 at 6:10 pmI use Roboform myself. There is also the similar Lastpass.com. I don't like the interface as much but the advantage is it's free and you can log into it on any computer. Also, you can create throw away passwords for using on public computers.
Hey Josh, thanks for the great list of recommended tools! I noticed that you have both Automatic Article Submitter and The Best Spinner recommended. As AAS has spinning capabilities built within, I'm curious as to whether you use The Best Spinner instead (for spinning) and then AAS for submission only? Can you please clarify? Thanks so much!
Hi Karen,
I use The Best Spinner for content creation and AAS for article Submission.
Hope that helps,
Josh -
Good tools here. A couple of them are ones I didn't know about. Thanks for this list.
Does Deep Linker Pro have any scheduling feature to slowly submit the links over time?
I was thinking about getting Deep Linker Pro, but I'm concerned about timing. I've always heard that If you get too many backlinks too fast you can look suspicious to google. If I have a new site that suddenly gets 600 backlinks won't that look kind of strange?
BTW, I just bought AAS partially on your recommendation, partially on Mark Mason's rec.
Thanks for the list!
JP, not at this time. In future versions there will be.
7th July, 2011 at 2:02 amHi Josh,
Really enjoying your contributions to the
IM world. You, along with Andrew Hansen, are two whom I trust unconditionally to give me straight-up, non-hype info.
OK, I'm trying to move forward on niche
affiliate marketing. Seriously considering your Hot Niche Spy to ramp things up and really get my business going. My BIG questions is : how does it help to find the low competition, profitable niches ( micro or other wise ),
the right product to market, along with the keywords so I can then go ahead and build my mini-sites based on a solid foundation ? I know other tools out there
offer similar help and I'm a little confused where to go next.
( M****t S*****i and N***e R****r are a
couple that come to mind ) .
The whole "trick" seems to be
the niche/product/keywords. If you get any of that wrong it's difficult if not impossible to make any $$$.
If I can do one-stop-shopping with your Hot Niche Spy I'm ready to sign on !Cheers,
Tony in San Jose CA
Thanks for sharing this blog post, timely as always. I've been interesting in doing better with a good project management software. I also like Raven Tools to keep track of all of my clients rankings and use LinkDiagnosis a bit as well.

25th July, 2011 at 5:01 pmmy top 2 essentials got to be dropbox and roboform everywhere work from anywhere ….
Good to hear that Odesk is your choice of outsourcing My bank on the contrary found their ways of deducting money straight from my account to be "extremely suspicious"… to put it nicely
Stef, it's standard practice. Most companies these days do automatic withdrawal. As a consumer I love it. I don't have to mess with paying bills every month.
I agree with you, Odesk makes payments much easier as it's all automated and saves us the time of making payments.
Just that my bank raised a red flag, and in these global economic recession days, I respect my bank's red flag and accept the inconvenience. For now
Yeah, I've been through that. I bank with JPMorgan Chase and they're "fraud prevention" team has contacted me at least 20 times over the years. Every single purchase they said was "suspicious" has been a purchase I had made before. That means their success rate is 0%. It's more annoying than anything to me.
Almost exactly the same what I am experiencing here in Malaysia, be it that I had to contact my bank first to ask why I wasn't able to pay my Odesk workers. At least JPMorgan took the initiative to contact you first.
I am banking with Al Rajhi, since they are the only ones in Malaysia where I can easily withdraw money from Paypal.
All this won't be a problem for US consumers I guess
I already got Team Viewer, SEO for Firefox, oDesk, and Dropbox. By the way, do we still have to use Rank Checker since we already have SEO for Firefox to be able to know our page rank spot?
I've been using some of those SEO Book tools for years now… Great list though, thanks for sharing.
Definitely a very useful list of tools. Using time management tool is a great additional to your work, it keeps our work more organized.
11th July, 2012 at 4:08 pmJosh,
What tool do you use to build backlinks? I mean, you have articlebuilder, but how would you submit the articles. Do you use an automated tool like Magic Submitter or UAW, etc? Interested to know. Thanks.
Josh, I am in the process of doing some marketing work on twitter and was trying to work out some great ways to use it and I thought to myself earlier "I bet if I emailed Josh he will have the best solution' – and then you emailed me! Just watched tweetadder videos. Brilliant mate. Thanks so much. How much is a credit on deep link pro? I couldn't see on the site?
James -
Awesome list, Josh. Our first experience with oDesk was superb. Very happy with the service.
Thanks for the recommendation for Odesk. I am needing a couple of things done that I have put off and I am going to try them.
Regarding Backlink Booster, how does it compare against Backlinks Indexer?
Hey Josh,
How about an Autoresponder Too?

GS Plumbing has started using expansion tanks in the cold winter months to help water heaters.
Greenville, SC (PRWEB) February 11, 2013
GS Plumbing, a plumbing contractor serving Greenville and the surrounding areas, has important information about how water heaters can be affected by the cold during the winter months. Homeowners can prevent costly repairs or having to purchase brand new water heaters by adding an expansion tank to their water heaters.
Water heaters in winter are subject to breaking due to the cold water entering the tanks. The lining of the tanks are stressed from having the cold water hitting the warm tank. Thermal pressure is then created and has no outlet. This is why expansion tanks are important to have. They allow space for the increased water expansion. Without an expansion tank, the water heater itself acts as the expansion tank and is more likely to leak or break.
Homeowners can greatly extend the life of a water heater by installing an expansion system. An expansion tank will reduce the stress put on a water heater over the winter months, which will extend the life of the heater overall, and ultimately save them money from possible water damage. GS Plumbing can advise homeowners on the best expansion tank options, and with installation. For more information visit their website or call (864)326-4318.
About the company:
GS Plumbing has over 30 years experience in all aspects of the plumbing field. They are accredited with the BBB, a Member of the Greenville Chamber of Commerce, licensed & insured, and offer 24 hour Emergency Service.
