Did You Loose Your Google Places Account
Google Local Business Listings
Cheating with fake reviews or keyword stuffing the company name WILL Get you BANNED from Google Places… it IS possible to be forgiven IF you take certain steps!
The most valuable part of a local Google Advertising campaign, Google Local Business Listings are powered by Google Maps, which is now called Google Places.
Google Places business listings often appear above the organic Google listings
Did your Google Places Account Get Suspended?
- Fake reviews you left singing your companies praises
- keyword stuffing
- entering too many custom categories
- mud slinging by fake complaints against your competitors
- opening a gmail account, leaving a fake review (and never logging back into that gmail account again… did you really think Google was that stupid?)
… every possible method of gaming the Google local business listing rankings has already been thought of, attempted in the last 6o minutes.
So… you bent the rules and were caught dirty??
Welcome to the club, you most certainly are not alone!
So now you're kicked off, is there a Google path to redemption?
Yes there is!
If you want back in to the good graces of Google Places we can help!
Google announced that there are Quality Scores it uses as criteria to determine which websites should rank higher in Google's Local Business Listing Rankings
Among them is to complete not only your Google Profile but if you have any, your employees Google profiles. See my post on Real Estate Marketing blog platform ActiveRain:

Guaranteed Google Places or Google Local Business Listing ranking
Top 3 listing for your main keyword in Google Maps Guaranteed
Many small businesses come to us with excellent ranking in the organic listings (sometimes called the natural search results or the main body of search results) but they are NOT ranking in the 3 pack of Google Maps. Google Maps is often the ONLY search results displayed on a smart phone. Increasingly people will start using their smart phone instead of a laptop, you need your company to rank in the top 3 or you will be virtually invisible. Fee for top 3 ranking in Google Places and one listing in the top ten Google organic listings $2400 annually
It's widely known that to boost your ranking in Google Places you should add up to 10 photos or images to your Google Places Accout

Check your rankings often?
If you're not paying attention you'll get a very false sense of security.
News Bulletin: Google Doesn't Show Everybody The Same Results!
It shows you what it thinks you want to see… Google's Personalized Search is a game changer.
Google's (and Broadcast Television's) Advertiser Supported Business Model
For some time now (several years) Google records what your search habits are in an effort to be a more effective advertiser. It needs to learn something about you in order to know which advertisements you're more likely to purchase from. Until recently Google only tracked you while you were logged in to your Google account (logged into Gmail and you're logged into everything else Google, Gmail is to Google what your social security # is to Big Brother)
What are the implications for SEO?
If you have a commercial website and you're concerned at where your company website ranks… and you search for your website often Google will NOT show you what your prospective customers see, Google will show you what it thinks you want to see.
You've inadvertently trained Google to display your website, artificially higher than it "really" is, and you did it to yourself.
Implications for Do It YouSelf SEOers are… well, plentiful.
You are more likely to (mistakenly) tell a SEO company, no thanks, don't need you, am doing just fine by myself.
… and you're not, but you don't know that.
If you are an SEO and you check the rankings often so in a desperate attempt to have something in the way of vastly improved ranking results to show your new (nervous) SEO client…
all new SEO clients are nervous, they either don't really understand what they're paying you for OR they've done a lot themselves and just came to the conclusion it is productive to outsource this to a professional… those clients are REALLY skeptical to see what it is they're paying you for.
… Google is going to display what IT thinks you want to see, NOT what everyone else sees.
Moral of this story?
Since this is a "feeder blog" (aka supporting blog) and not my main blog I'm not going to tell you as much here as I do on http://www.frederickwebpromotions.com but this much I am willing to share (for free, I am NOT in business to give away all my secrets for free):
Do NOT check your rankings from the same computer you promote from.
Do NOT cheat, game the system, practice Black Hat SEO, or even Grey Hat SEO From the same computer you check your ranking on.
Go to the Library to check what the rest of the world sees.
… this way you may not embarrass yourself the way I did right here on this blog

Google Pulled Googlemaps for SEO Businesses
Update 12/26/2009 (with Egg on my Face) Google's Personalized Search has consequences if you check your own rankings too often. Rather than remove this (mistaken) post I'll leave it up here as a lesson to those who insist on checking and rechecking their ranking in Google.
Google doesn't show everyone the same thing. Google's personalized search will display to you in response to your search query, what it thinks you want… and part of that is based on the aggregate of your last 180 days of searching. Meaning if you check a given keyword/ keyword phrase too often, and you click on your website (or your competitors link) Google will assume you obviously like that site and it will show that site higher in the serps.
Below is my mistaken conclusion, a post that 3 weeks later I discovered I was wrong
Google Local Business Listings which is Googlemaps underneath is apparently removing SEO companies from the search results.
I don't yet know if this is a nationwide change in the Googlemaps algorithim, Google is said to roll out changes incrementally in some markets (some data centers) to test in order to determine if they want to keep a change or drop it.
SEO companies have been learning how to improve the ranking of Googlemaps listings, and Google has been penalizing SEO firms for keyword stuffing and other methods of improving the ranking in the local business listings.
If you search in Maryland for the keyword phrases:
Now I'm searching from a Frederick Maryland IP address so as of this post I'm not sure if the Google results returned from a searcher searching from another state outside of Maryland. Google is known to display slightly different results to searchers searching in a given geographical area as opposed to searchers searching from elsewhere.

What are backlinks and why do I need them?
Backlinks 101
Backlinks are incoming links to a website or web page. In the search engine optimization (SEO) world, the number of backlinks is one indication of the popularity or importance of that website or page (though other measures, such as PageRank, are likely to be more important). Outside of SEO, the backlinks of a webpage may be of significant personal, cultural or semantic interest: they indicate who is paying attention to that page.
Where they come from and how the anchor text is written is critical to achieving success in the search engine results pages.
Backlinks have become so important to the scope of Search Engine Optimization, that they have become some of the main building blocks to good SEO. Backlinks are links that are directed towards your website. Also knows as Inbound links (IBL's). The number of backlinks is an indication of the popularity or importance of that website. Backlinks are important for SEO because some search engines, especially Google, will give more credit to websites that have a good number of quality backlinks, and consider those websites more relevant than others in their results pages for a search query.
Building quality backlinks is extremely important to Search Engine Optimization, and because of their importance, it should be very high on your priority list in your SEO efforts
Back links are really important. What I am noticing with my WordPress blog is that if I keep saturating it with good content, lots of ping backs are coming in from related blogs. The links are building because of the quality of the information that I am posting.
When we say that more number of incoming links pointing toward your website defines Link Popularity, we are talking about your "website's worthiness". Link Popularity isn't a chemical formula that can be attained by mixing two or more components. Gaining maximum number of links pointing to your website requires skills, backed up by your website's worthiness. If your site is worthy of a link, you can earn a great profit with Link Popularity. And if it isn't, all your Link Building efforts might go in vain!
How does one get listed in Google locally?
For example this blog is about geting your Maryland small business ranked in the first ten Google search resutls.
Sidebar for SEO nomenclature: SERP. when you search for anything in Google what comes up is a SERP serp=search engine results page and that page consists of: 10 Organic or 'natural' search results in the body or middle of the serp page. One the right hand side are sponsored links or advertisements. the first three search results above the organic are often sponsored links. Sometimes when searching for local products or services Google shows what it calls Google Business Listings. Those are garnered from Google Maps.
So how does one get ranked in Google locally? like for Maryland for example?
People generally type a full sentence as a question:
Where can I find X
What Google returns is a listing of X thingys that are ONLY located in Maryland.

Stimulus provided big boost for geothermal industry
The geothermal energy industry expanded by nearly 50 percent last year in confirmed new U.S. power projects, primarily because of cash from the federal stimulus law, the industry's trade group said yesterday.
More than 6,440 megawatts of new U.S. projects are planned or under development, up 46 percent from 2008 numbers, the Geothermal Energy Association reported [click here for study]. The industry has a total installed capacity of more than 3,150 megawatts, up from about 2,900 megawatts in 2008.
"The geothermal energy industry is experiencing unprecedented growth with future years promising double-digit, year-over-year expansion," said Karl Gawell, GEA's executive director, in a statement. "While stimulus money has been driving much of the recent growth, we are also seeing that as geothermal technology pushes forward the economics of these projects really make sense."
The stimulus law provided the industry with up to $400 million in new funding to advance research, development and deployment activities. It also expanded tax credits for new projects to include a 30 percent investment tax credit and a "cash grant" alternative.
"That's really what's driven all these new projects," Gawell said in an interview. "Geothermal projects have longer lead times … and the fact that people now have a horizon to 2013, it made a lot of people say, 'Let's go.'"
But GEA does not expect new installations to drop off once stimulus funds dry up, Gawell said. The trade group expects Energy Department funding to continue."We expect to see a strong DOE presence in this effort," Gawell said, adding that the agency's base budget for geothermal research has shifted upward in the past few years. "DOE has given a lot of support to its geothermal program, and we don't expect that to go away."
The industry is also soliciting outside financing. The report released yesterday comes on the heels of a finance forum held earlier this month to attract financiers for the burgeoning industry (Greenwire, Jan. 15).
Interest in new geothermal energy technologies like enhanced geothermal systems, or EGS, and geothermal hydrocarbon co-production is also expected to drive the industry, the report says. EGS involves fracturing dry rock deep underground and circulating water through the cracks to generate steam to drive an above-ground turbine. And geothermal hydrocarbon co-production generates power from usable geothermal fluids found in oil and gas production fields and in mining operations.
"If from the surface you understand where heat and water are better, that will not just help with current generation, but it will help with future generation and EGS in general," Gawell said. "There's a lot of overlapping technology needed for the long-run EGS and for the near term to develop strong growth in the industry."
See also Bloomberg's story, "U.S. Geothermal Energy Capacity Expected to Triple in 5 Years."
For background on geothermal, see "Hot rocks are a rockin' hot climate solution."
Ecologists Outline Necessary Actions for Mitigating and Adapting to a Changing Climate
Global warming may impair the ability of ecosystems to perform vital services — such as providing food, clean water and carbon sequestration — says the nation's largest organization of ecological scientists. In a statement released Jan. 26, the Ecological Society of America (ESA) outlines strategies that focus on restoring and maintaining natural ecosystem functions to mitigate and adapt to climate change.
"Decision-makers cannot overlook the critical services ecosystems provide," says ESA President Mary Power. "If we are going to reduce the possibility of irreversible damage to the environment under climate change, we need to take swift but measured action to protect and manage our ecosystems."
Kerry: Jobs bill no threat to climate plans
Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) said Tuesday that Democratic plans to pack billions of dollars in energy programs into upcoming jobs legislation will not sap momentum from the broader climate change and energy bill he is trying to craft.
The jobs legislation remains in flux but could include upward of $12 billion in home and building efficiency retrofits and other energy-related spending.
"If it [the jobs bill] were to reach too far, it could have an impact, but I don't think it is, and I think that has been taken into consideration," Kerry told reporters in the Capitol.
"It is not a sufficiently broad enough piece that it has the ability to satisfy what needs to be done on the full energy front," added Kerry, who praised the planned inclusion of the energy-efficiency measures in the jobs bill.
Kerry is working with Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) on a bill that would merge greenhouse gas emissions caps with support for various energy technologies, including nuclear power.
But it remains unclear whether the Senate will act on climate legislation in 2010. Mandatory curbs on greenhouse gas emissions face opposition from many Republicans and some centrist Democrats.
Fixing the Global Nitrogen Problem
Billions of people today owe their lives to a single discovery now a century old. In 1909 German chemist Fritz Haber of the University of Karlsruhe figured out a way to transform nitrogen gas""which is abundant in the atmosphere but nonreactive and thus unavailable to most living organisms""into ammonia, the active ingredient in synthetic fertilizer. The world's ability to grow food exploded 20 years later, when fellow German scientist Carl Bosch developed a scheme for implementing Haber's idea on an industrial scale.
Over the ensuing decades new factories transformed ton after ton of industrial ammonia into fertilizer, and today the Haber-Bosch invention commands wide respect as one of the most significant boons to public health in human history. As a pillar of the green revolution, synthetic fertilizer enabled farmers to transform infertile lands into fertile fields and to grow crop after crop in the same soil without waiting for nutrients to regenerate naturally. As a result, global population skyrocketed from 1.6 billion to six billion in the 20th century.
Business Groups Call for Action on Emissions
The debate over how the U.S. should control emissions of greenhouse gases is heating up again, with some business groups calling for congressional action despite reluctance among many lawmakers to move on a broad climate bill in an election year.
Some lawmakers are floating the possibility of a narrow bill targeted at the utility sector, which is worried about the potential costs if the Environmental Protection Agency follows through on its push to curb carbon-dioxide emissions using the Clean Air Act. But the outlook for even a targeted bill is uncertain.
More than 80 leading businesses, labor unions, faith, national security and environmental organizations launched a national print ad campaign last week calling for swift action by Congress to pass legislation that limits emissions.

Board Level Programme @ MDI
Economic growth of an emerging economy and developing country critically depends on the health and spread of banking industry. Banks being companies are run by their respective boards. As major decisions, including strategic business decisions, are taken by these boards, it is imperative that the boards are well constituted so as to reflect the various stakeholders and the business that they support. While the central bank and monetary authority is charged with the responsibility of ensuring a healthy banking system, it's the board members of these banks which set the goal posts and ensu

The Texas House has approved property tax legislation after amending SB 669 by Senate Finance Committee Chairwoman Jane Nelson (R-Flower Mound). This bill, as filed, addresses the property appraisal review process that many see as unfair to taxpayers and unresponsive to taxpayer criticisms. It expands taxpayer rights and participation in the process and requires more training for appraisal review board members and arbitrators.
Under the committee substitute, local governments would have to announce a "no-new-revenue" tax rate each year and compare it to the rate they're actually proposing. Taxpayers would get a copy of that and could intervene before the rates are finally set.
The Senate version of the bill required cities and counties to get voter approval for their property tax rates if revenues exceed 5 percent compared to what the entities collected the year before. The House's version leaves that "rollback" threshold at 8 percent and only triggers an election if constituents successfully petition for a vote.
CSSB 669 passed the House on a 137/0 vote and goes back to the Senate for concurrence of the amendments or appointment of a conference committee.
For more information, please contact Texas Credit Union Association President Jeff Huffman at 469-385-6488 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Offense. What does it mean? Bookish definition is "a violation or breaking of a social or moral rule; a transgression; sin." So I guess you could say it is when someone or something communicates with you in a manner that is at odds with your personal morals and beliefs. I have to say this post was borne of my personal and general media reaction to Ricky Gervais hosting the Golden Globes a few weeks ago. For those that missed it, here is a taster:
This was his 2nd time hosting, and I guess he thought he would hit a bit closer to the bone. Last year he made a few cheeky jokes about Mel Gibson's drinking problems, Paul McCartney's costly divorce and other showbiz fodder that was a little bit naughtier than what the late night talk show hosts were monologuing. And he probably wanted to top it. Personally I thought it was okay – I liked that he didn't pull any punches (who else would have the bollocks to make a joke about tinseltown darlings Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp, who were seated a few metres from the stage and Gervais himself). Undoubtedly he was the most entertaining bit of the awards show (which is, let's face it, a circle jerk for extremely well-paid people whose job entails talking and walking around on film). In terms of actual comedy, the jokes were a little lame (seriously, trotting out the Robert Downey Jnr jail schtick? dude has been clean for like 8 years now; what's next – a joke about Liz Taylor's husbands?) But did I think it was offensive? No.
It's not like he was making fun of the terminally ill or orphaned children – he was taking pot shots at over-privileged, over-pampered adults who are paid exponentially more than teachers, nurses and other true pillars of society. And perhaps they needed a little taste of reality, to take them back down to earth.
Obliquely conservative American media had a field day with Gervais, which I have a sneaking suspicion would have pleased the formerly chubby funster – The New York Daily News called him "tasteless, bordering on nasty", while the LA Times said his jokes set "a corrosive tone" for the night. Suppositions abound that Gervais wanted to go out in flames, which is feasible – fans of his standup will know that he is no stranger to controversy, indeed he courts it. I guess he took George Bernard Shaw's words to heart: "The secret to success is to offend the greatest number". Some stars (Al Pacino, Christian Bale) came out in support; others were vocal in their protest (Judd Apatow). It all boils down to what offends us on a personal level, which is further derived from our social mores, values etc.
It appears to me that the current state of the world's morality is we are in a state of flux. The days of political correctness have no doubt left an indelible mark on our general psyche but we are simultaneously rebelling against these strict confines – comedians such as Louie C.K. are masters of turning political correctness on its head whilst still showing warmth and humanity in their routines.
So what constitutes offense to me? I am offended when others fail to see that if you and I do not agree, that is not a bad thing; saying 'I guess we will have to agree to disagree' is a valid result. I am offended that news of a celebrity baby and sports headlines take front page, whilst the oppression and desperate nature of the situation in Egypt is relegated further down. I am offended that many people don't understand the difference between an Individualistic and Collectivist political ideology, but know the names of both the trainers and 'contestants' on the Biggest Loser.
I am also sure that I offend others; it's human nature. No doubt my neighbours take offense to my haphazard guitar plinking, and I doubt they care too much for my appreciation of music that contains explicit lyrics. But who cares? Being offended doesn't actually do anything – I think that's the point most people seem to forget. Just because I get offended by the ever-growing onslaught of reality television doesn't mean my life will change in any way – you don't go to bed offended and wake up with cancer. What I'm saying is, everybody needs to chill the fuck out. Also, if you delve deeply enough, there is certain level of genius in someone who has offended you, to paraphrase Robertson Davies. Feeling offended can trigger something within you; a need to reexamine your life and values; and that sort of introspection is always a good thing.
Aah, I dunno; perhaps we should try and emulate Abraham Lincoln "We should be too big to take offense and too noble to give it". But where's the fun in that?

On a recent morning, as I walked my dog, I greeted neighbors on their way to work.
I heard Gaby yell across the street, waving vigorously, "Good morning, Florinda," as her neighbor passed by.
I asked one of the kids at the bus stop about Whittier Elementary School's upcoming jog-a-thon. The kids greeted the dog, and we all went on with our days.
I have learned that greetings are a big deal in Latino culture.
When we have neighborhood meetings, there is no way to sneak in late. Everyone stops to greet when someone arrives, and at parties each person goes around kissing cheeks to say hello.

No Squares nor Rectangles
Just Some Lines is having a challenge the next two weeks in which you should not use a square or retangle. This is the card I made for the challenge. I cut circles to use as my mat behind the Spellbinders die. The beach girl, a Just Some Lines image, was colored with Copic markers, cut out, and then posted on top of a die of watery designer paper. As embellishments I used some stick-on fish. Drop over to Just Some Lines and check out their challenge.

Monday marks "opening day" for almost 250 high school golfers from more than 30 schools who will start the 2009 prep season with a solid 18-hole challenge at the South and North Los Serranos Country Club courses.
They'll be hosted by coach Ron Capps, his staff, and his players in the fifth annual Ayala High School Spring Classic.
"We'll have 20 varsity teams playing on the par 74 South course (6,900 yards)," Capps said Tuesday. "Twenty-one junior varsity teams and about 40 coaches will play the North. Each player should have a great time."
In addition to Ayala, strong teams from the Sierra League include Damien and Glendora, both expected to contend for the tournament title. Visitors will come in from Huntington Beach Edison, Peninsula, Newport Harbor, Mater Dei, Fountain Valley, Rancho Santa Margarita and Brea Olinda, the defending champion.
Ayala, a fifth-place finisher last year at 201 (average 80.2), will be led by juniors A.J. Espinoza and Brendan Kim and senior Anthony Trento.
"We hope to finish in the top five again and shoot around 400," said Capps, who has directed the tournament since its inception in 2005.
California golfers gave a sigh of relief this week after they learned that a proposed 10 percent golf tax had been eliminated from the new state budget. Thus, golfers' opposition and vigilance paid off.
The controversial tax was dropped for several reasons, according to reports from the Legislative Analyst Office (LAO): Michigan, Massachusetts and Florida had adopted a golf tax, found it didn't work, and rescinded it quickly; the proposed tax proved unfair, aimed only at golf and no other recreation offerings; and finally, city courses and L.A.
County would suffer seven-figure "hits" to their budgets.
So, like the wicked witch, the golf tax is dead.
For meticulous scorekeeping, it's hard to beat the Senior Men's Club at Mountain Meadows Golf Course. After each tournament, scores for the leading players are prominently posted, hole-by-hole, in the clubhouse. No secrets or arguments among these seniors.
Bob McAlmond won the A flight tournament in February by checking in with a net 68 (88-20). Included in the top four were Bob Wada (87-18-68), Jesse Ash (85-12-73), and Jim Grace (84-11-73).
Mike Toth (90-21-69) topped the B flight for indexers 21 and up. The three other leaders were Ron Lewis (93-21-72), Tom Loh (101-28-73), and Phil Guhl (96-23-73). …
Mt. San Antonio College opened its Foothill Conference season Monday with a third-place finish at Spring Valley Lakes Country Club in Victorville.
Mt. SAC finished at 384, eight strokes behind first-place Long Beach's 376 total. College of the Desert was runner-up with 377.
"We need to work harder on our short games," said Mike Green, second-year Mounties coach. "I know we can play much better, and we will as the season goes on."
On a windy, cold day, Daniel Petta and Daniel Ferraris both shot 3-over-par 75s. In at 78 were Nick Erickson, Doug Kennedy and Andrew Roque.
Tournament medalist was COD's Robert Garsky, who shot 72. …
The Chino High School Classic, scheduled at El Prado on April 17, promises to be an exciting event.
As golfers and spectators crane their necks to watch, a helicopter will hover over the course before dropping hundreds – perhaps thousands – of numbered balls on the putting green. Owner of the ball closest to the hole walks off with $2,500, while the owner of the ball farthest away nets $1,000. Each ball costs $20.
The $50 entry includes golf, cart, gift bag, lunch and buffet dinner. Entries are open until April 3. All proceeds go to the sports programs at Chino High School.
For information, call (909) 591-8811. …
The Four-Club tournament at Marshall Canyon on Saturday requires pre-round thinking and rigid shot-making.
If I were playing, I would take my driver, 3-metal wood, 7-iron, and putter. I would do without important clubs a 5-iron and sand wedge.
Surprisingly, scores are usually not much higher for players who leave 10 clubs at home. The 4-clubber reminds us that sometimes "less is better." …
The Chino-based Folga (Friends) travelers head for Temecula Inn on March 8 for their next trip.
Old-timers will recall that the Temecula facility, located just off I-15, was named Rainbow Canyon, an appropriate name for a colorful golf course.

Recluce has developed a rich world history over the course of preceding books, looking at the rise and fall of kingdoms, empires and nation-states. We've seen the declining high technology of Cyador, the brutal mines of Hamor, and the city of chaos, Fairhaven, amongst others. This time we're looking at a conflict between Spidlar and Gallos. The Spidlarians are mercantile, pragmatic, and if prone to bouts of greed, also somewhat socially progressive. The Prefect of Gallos, by contrast, seems calculatingly brutal – prepared to take control of as much of the continent as he can get away with. The conflict between them evokes some of the later wars of the medieval period – groups of professionals, backed by the general population, crawling through mud and fire in an effort to make their lords holdings a few feet larger.
Of course, in this case, the wars are backed by magic. Recluce has a highly systematised system of magic, or 'Chaos and Order'. Order mages tend toward healing, invisibility and subtler, defensive arts, whilst Chaos mages lean more toward fireballs. There's a balance between the forces – the more unused Chaos there is in the world, the more Order is available, and vice versa. Modesitt has put some serious thought into the way that the two types of magic work with each other, and if you're a fan of logical systems for your magery, this one is for you.
Our protagonist here is Beltur, a young man being brought up as a user of Chaos. Beltur is thoughtful and has a talent for self-reflection, whilst also demonstrating a lack of practical experience. He lives under the shadow of his uncle, a powerful user of Chaos magic, His uncle clearly loves Beltur, but also clearly knows more than he's saying, and feels convincingly disappointed by Beltur's weak talents in the area of Chaos magic. The relationship between them is clearly a complex one, with mixed obligations, expectations and emotional freight; the prose works hard to make this initil conflict between Beltur and his uncle have meaning, and largely succeeds – the conflicts in their relationship feel genuine, as well as familiar.
Beltur isn't defined by that conflict, though it does help shape him. Instead, he's the portrait of a young man trying to work out who he is, and what he wants to do. Modesitt has always had a gift for putting us inside his character's heads, and exercises it to the fullest here. Beltur's inner voice is compassionate, occasionally mystified, and self-aware enough that the reader can go along for the ride, sharing and empathising with his trials and tribulations. Beltur's journey of the self is convincingly portrayed - and works as a coming of age tale, even without the addition of magic.
Beltur is joined by a very strong supporting cast. It's difficult to get a handle on the antagonists; as-is, they seem to exist mostly to drive the plot. I would have liked to spend a little more time on their side of the fence, to give them a bit more depth. However, they serve perfectly well as insidious adversaries, and the more positive characters are complex, charming, and entirely believable as individuals. Modesitt has often produced strong characters, and I have to admit he's done well here. All of Beltur's acquaintances feel like they have lives of their own, which we happen to be casting an eye over. In some ways, they lack a passionate intensity, but the subtle, quiet moments fof emotional resonance which are scattered throughout the narrative make them compelling characters.
The plot…well, it's one part coming-of-age, one part war story. There's some romance, and it's plausibly portrayed and not overwrought. There's magical battles, with fireballs, cavalry charges, and cast-iron consequences. There's also the story of Beltur, trying to work out who he is, and what he wants, in the crucible of war. It's good stuff. Certain elements may seem familiar to readers of Modesitt's other work, but the story is compelling enough that it probably won't matter.
In the end, Mongrel Mage works as a way in to the larger Recluce series, as a stand-alone novel, and as a part of the series as a whole. Its well-crafted plot, convincing characters and imaginative world make it a firm recommendation from me.

Add Shot of Organic Espresso to take your Business Model to the next level CLICK HERE!!!
Several years ago I was walking on a college campus that I am doing some projects on and I sparked up a conversation with a homeless man. For some reason I looked interesting to him so he asked me some questions and there is one that really opened a VORTEX. Just in case you don't know here is my definition of a vortex it is an opening of ideas and opportunities. Now back to the story, he asked me what I did and I started to tell him about a website that I created and he was interested. And then when he finally got it he said it is a constitution and I immediately said no because I thought of the United States constitution and I am not trying to replace that. About 5 minutes after we parted ways I really felt compelled to look up the word constitution and find out the definition. After looking at several definitions I just wasn't feeling it but I knew something was there. So I tried the thesaurus I like to do this to stretch the meaning of a word that I need to rediscover or expand. After a little more probing I found that a constitution was made up of fundamental and organic principles. I got so excited because I believe that this is a powerful discovery and that lead to this post.
First we have fundamental principles which are the type of principles that we would learn in school, church or seminar. Real general teaching that are built on certainty and fact.
On the other hand we have organic principles that can and do change from region to region or person to person. I believe the best way to strengthen organic principles is real life experience.
I believe that when we harmonize the two it can be a very powerful tool. Just think the knowledge of education and the freedom to consciously adapt it to the right situation at the right time. Are you better at fundamental or organic principles? Do you have a guide to help you with these principles? Are you able to let go of a belief that does not serve you in this moment?

Second in an occasional series on the future of work.
A news release came recently that described a new finding of massive American job losses since China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001. What caught the eye was a specific estimate for Minnesota, of 89,100 mostly manufacturing jobs lost.
That's a lot of workers to be displaced in a state that only had 375,000 manufacturing jobs in 2001. There are few things more upsetting for a family than a job loss, and it's obvious that globalization has moved a lot of work overseas. That's why it's easy to overlook the current reality of the manufacturing sector in this state: Output has never been higher, and manufacturers can't seem to find enough workers.
Here's one of the ironies in looking ahead at how the nature of work is going to change — manufacturing may actually be a bright spot.
Right now, employers are fighting over the graduates of the Dunwoody College of Technology in Minneapolis, the state's venerable private vocational college. President Rich Wagner said the number of open jobs posted for every Dunwoody graduate has slipped recently — down to just eight.
If every graduate was hired — and by far most do get hired — there would be seven more openings for employers to fill.
That would be no surprise to readers of annual surveys of the Enterprise Minnesota industry group, which lately ranked recruiting and keeping a qualified workforce high on the list of challenges. In outstate Minnesota, where this worker scarcity is acute, at least half the time manufacturers say the problem is simply a lack of applicants.
"For anybody building anything," said Bill Blazar, senior vice president with the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, "you've got to struggle to stay fully staffed."
This is not to suggest that Minnesota manufacturers survived the "China Shock" that hit during the George W. Bush administration without a scratch. China would have continued industrializing rapidly with or without joining the global free-trade regime, but what happened once it did was nothing short of an explosion of manufacturing capability. The shock wave upset the apple cart in region after region.
Minnesota manufacturers who suddenly faced lower-cost threats had to respond. As Bob Kill of Enterprise Minnesota described it, "there was a time we all were rushing to put things in Mexico or overseas. There still could be a reason for Mexico, but that's really slowed down."
One of the things Kill tries to explain to economic development officials is how larger Minnesota manufacturers came to understand the value of leaning on a set of local suppliers.
It might be easy to find parts from China quoted at lower prices, but a low-cost Chinese manufacturer easily can become high cost. Imagine that parts start arriving in Minnesota that are just slightly off on size. Odds are there will be faulty parts on the next delivery truck, too — and also in shipping containers on Seattle's docks, on ships in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and on loading docks back in China.
When a similar mistake gets caught at a Minnesota supplier, the correct parts could be hustled over the following morning. "There's not a tsunami [of manufacturing] back in our direction," Kill said, "but there's a better balance than there was 10 years ago."
If manufacturers do start bringing manufacturing capacity back to the United States, Wagner said, "particularly in the state of Minnesota, we are going to have to have more workers."
One interesting aspect of the manufacturing employment story is that as a share of all jobs, factory jobs have only gone in one direction for decades, slipping again last year to less than 11 percent in the state. There's nothing particularly remarkable about that. Nationally, the share of jobs in manufacturing is now only about a quarter of what it was in the early 1950s, and has declined to fewer than one job out of 11 total nonfarm jobs.
The jobs that remain, however, are many times more productive than the factory jobs of the early 1950s. What's called "touch labor," repetitively inserting a part or tightening a screw, has increasingly gone offshore or has simply been replaced by machines.
Wagner sees machines not replacing the worker so much as augmenting the work. Instead of touch labor the workday will consist of setting up machines for a production run, monitoring equipment, maintaining equipment and the like. "The jobs are there, it's now a matter of getting people the right skill sets," Wagner said.
Educators hoping to develop a workforce for manufacturing, he said, have to first work on getting high schoolers through graduation. "Today that's a starting point," he said. "You have to get through high school, and then you have to have something else to get that skill. That's an apprenticeship program, or it's a certificate program to be a machine tool operator, or a two-year degree or four-year degree."
There is every reason to think there's going to be plenty of openings in Minnesota for young people who can learn their way around a high-tech manufacturing plant, Blazar said, as the manufacturers that have the right niche look to have real staying power. One group he described was a cluster of packaging equipment makers located in and around Alexandria, companies like Massman Automation Designs and Douglas Machine.
They are similar businesses, Blazar said, each developing flexible technology platforms and then filling each order with a machine customized for a specific application. It's the kind of strategy that should be able to fend off competitors intent only on exploiting low-cost labor.
"We're really good at that in our state," Blazar said. "And there's a big future in it."
If you happen to live near Alexandria it could be your future, too. Last week, Douglas Machine was looking to fill 20 job openings.

7 February
1 Kings 10:1-10
The fame of Solomon having reached the queen of Sheba… she came to test him with difficult questions. She brought immense riches to Jerusalem with her, camels laden with spices, great quantities of gold, and precious stones. On coming to Solomon, she opened her mind freely to him; and Solomon had an answer for all her questions, not one of them was too obscure for the king to expound. When the queen of Sheba saw all the wisdom of Solomon, the palace he had built, the food at his table, the accommodation for his officials, the organisation of his staff and the way they were dressed, his cup-bearers, and the holocausts he offered in the Temple of the Lord, it left her breathless, and she said to the king, 'What I heard in my own country about you and your wisdom was true, then! Until I came and saw it with my own eyes I could not believe what they told me, but clearly they told me less than half: for wisdom and prosperity you surpass the report I heard. How happy your wives are! How happy are these servants of yours who wait on you always and hear your wisdom! Blessed be the Lord your God who has granted you his favour, setting you on the throne of Israel! Because of the Lord's everlasting love for Israel, he has made you king to deal out law and justice.' And she presented the king with a hundred and twenty talents of gold and great quantities of spices and precious stones; no such wealth of spices ever came again as those given to King Solomon by the queen of Sheba.
Mark 7:14-23
Jesus called the people to him and said, 'Listen to me, all of you, and understand. Nothing that goes into a man from outside can make him unclean; it is the things that come out of a man that make him unclean. If anyone has ears to hear, let him listen to this.'
When he had gone back into the house, away from the crowd, his disciples questioned him about the parable. He said to them, 'Do you not understand either? Can you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside cannot make him unclean, because it does not go into his heart but through his stomach and passes out into the sewer?' (Thus he pronounced all foods clean.) And he went on, 'It is what comes out of a man that makes him unclean. For it is from within, from men's hearts, that evil intentions emerge: fornication, theft, murder, adultery, avarice, malice, deceit, indecency, envy, slander, pride, folly. All these evil things come from within and make a man unclean.'
…it is what comes out of man that makes him unclean…
I always have this habit of observing people from time to time. In my mind, I judge them based on their actions and my experiences with them. I describe their attitudes as how they show them to people. If I observe that they do good things, I would judge them as having a kind heart. If they do otherwise, I would judge them as having a wicked heart.
The gospel today can confirm the statement, "It is what we do that defines who we are." As we have learned from yesterday's gospel, the Pharisees and the Jews focus more on traditions and practices. One example is that they need to clean first before eating; thereby, judging Jesus' disciples for eating with unclean hands.
The gospel today signifies that eating with unclean hands does not make a person a sinner. As Jesus says, "Nothing that goes from the outside can make him unclean." Though in our present days, there are people who really are very meticulous when it comes to washing hands thoroughly before eating. But food does not influence the state of our heart. What is in our hearts shows our spiritual life. Our heart, our conscience is the start of all our actions. Jesus stated that, "it is from within that evil intentions emerged."
We are humans and we make mistakes. We make decisions that are sometimes morally inappropriate. Those decisions go with our gift of free will. When we exercise our free will, let us examine our conscience. Is it the right thing to do? Or is it the wrong thing to do? Our decisions should not solely be based on us alone. We need to seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit for us to make a better decision. We live a very busy life, but I believe somewhere in between, we can make time to speak to God. Have time to pray and examine how we are living our life. What are our priorities? Do we focus more on looking good than doing good?
(Today's Oxygen by Beryl Baterina)
Prayer: Heavenly Father, please guide us so that our words and actions will only be in accordance to your will. Please help us to let Jesus live in our hearts forever.
Thanksgiving: Thank you Father God, for this gift of life. Thank You for our families and friends who help us to be closer to You.

Presentation Abstract
Bridging the Gap from MBSE to Architecture and Hardware Design
This session will summarize the progress made today in the product development process using hardware modules as the basis for design, simulation, requirement traceability and ultimately field performance metrics. Module based design is the methodology that enables the connection from MBSE to hardware architecture design and ultimately detailed design.
The adoption of modular design by the hardware design community is gaining momentum and may prove to be the bridge for MBSE. Hardware architecture design can use corporate functional blocks to construct a system level representation with product requirements traceability. The proposed architecture can be verified for function, mechanical fit, PCB optimization and parametric. The optimized architecture can then seamlessly move into detailed design maintaining requirement to block traceability. The block design quality, through IoT connectivity, can also be quantified. Gathering field performance data against the block can provide predictive failure data.

Women set the tone in this lakeside community where houses are painted in pastels. During the height of the summer season, when twenty thousand visitors come to consult the town's mediums, it resembles nothing so much as a sorority sleepover for aging sisters. They laze about the hotel parlor and fan themselves in the white rockers that line the veranda. They sweep down the streets in flowing dresses. Tinsel stars and crystals hang in windows. Christmas lights twinkle from porches all year long. Stone angels stand sentry on walkways, and plaster elves march across lawns.
Doesn't that sound like the most fascinating setting for a magical realist novel, something about the daughter of the only skeptics in town? Which would be a good thing, as she goes around scaring the hell out of the local charlatans until something real turns up.
I digress.
Lily Dale, New York is one of the last lingering communities founded around the Spiritualist movement. Heard of Victorian seances, table tipping and ghost photographs? All relics of the Spiritualists, who held the belief that contact with the dead was not only possible, but advisable for a fulfilling life. Nowadays, people flock to this tiny town with dreams of greed, or love, or just talking to their Mum or Grandpa or Rover again.
Christine Wicker entered into the project of profiling the town and getting the scoop on mediums with an open-minded yet healthily skeptical viewpoint. This proves frustrating , but never boring in a town full of people like Shelley, angel-loving founder of the Lower Archy of the Pink Sisterhood of the Metafuzzies and Blissninnies, or Lynn, a mother of five well into her twilight years who still takes the time to bicycle around town, bestowing blessings as she goes. After three years of research, Wicker comes to a satisfying personal conclusion that allows balance between being open to wonder and, as Lynn would put it, chatting with the toaster every morning:
Maybe Lily Dale's stories are like ancient myths that don't have to be literally true because facts aren't the point. The point is that such stories resonate with us spiritually. They answer our deep need to believe the universe contains order and purpose. In a post-modern culture, perhaps perfectly sane but spiritually adrift people retreat into their own visions because there are so few alternatives. Maybe Lily Dale fosters that, and maybe it serves a good purpose.
This one's for the Ruby lovers who would like to learn more about the otherworldly occurances that happened to its heroine, or anyone who wants a good dark-and-stormy-night read.

Sadly out of print, but I recommend the fine booksellers at Alibris.com and Strandbooks.com
You might also get lucky at BookCloseouts.com (as of today, there are a hundred remaindered copies of this book), which sells overstocked books and has some of the best service I've encountered in online bookselling.

Wouldn't Lily Dale be a marvelous name for a '20s move heroine? The kind that would dash away from a cocktail party to jump in the cockpit of a biplane to save a puppy or something ^_^
I've read all your reviews, and you're doing marvelous work- I can very much see you continuing in the grand virginia woolf tradition of the thoughtful essayist, critic and novelist who loves her subjects but isn't overly reverent of them. Well done, you.

Where have all of the good rock records gone? In a sea of dance pop, sweater rap, country-lite and effeminate sorta-folk, it feels like it's getting increasingly hard to fish out a fun rock and roll album from all of the new releases. Straight-ahead rock music has been making a comeback of sorts, but Buffalo Tom's Three Easy Pieces can be used as an audio textbook for how to do it right.
Their first release in nearly a decade, the Boston trio's seventh long-player illustrates that big changes are sometimes overrated. Their music still sounds like punk through the eyes of the E Street Band, their lyrics are still wistfully easy. But the band–vocalist/guitarist Bill Janovitz, vocalist/bassist Chris Colbourn and drummer Tom Maginnis–sound more comfortable together, and the quality of the music reflects this. Unlike the recent wave of questionable reunions, Buffalo Tom took a break from their 9 to 5 jobs because they enjoy playing together.
Three Easy Pieces isn't groundbreaking or even 'album of the year' material, but it's the most consistently enjoyable thing I've heard this year. It's an album of all above average songs filled with standout moments: Janovitz's raspy, soaring tenor punches through the chorus of "September Shirt" in just the right spots; the unexpected Celtic tinge that "Gravity" takes; Colbourn's lovably happy "Renovating;" and on and on.
Buffalo Tom may have inadvertently spawned the legion of alt.rock clones during the '90s, but this is no nostalgia act–Three Easy Pieces is the band doing what they do best. And that's making loud, intelligent rock music.

I have not been this busy since I was in college trying to study for five different finals in the same week. …so if I'm not posting entries all the time, there's a good reason for it. Trust me… I've been getting down and dirty. 😉
On another note, I thought I would share some of my latest creations.
Have you seen The Sampler's October kit?! It's loaded with vibrant colors and tons of fun products to use. Here are a couple of layouts that I created with this month's kit:
I especially love the Doggles layout just for those adorable pictures of Hilo. Every time I see these photos, I can't help but smile. My dogs totally melt my heart. 🙂
Oh, and did I ever share my Little Yellow Bicycle layout that won a contest over at Two Peas!? Well, it was picked as one of the winning projects, and I was so surprised when I found out. Here it is:
…and here's one of my very own sketches that I used to create the above layout:

Oh, and one more thing… my friend, Holly, wanted me to let you all know that she is doing some awesome giveaways over at her blog. Click here to check it out!
PS: Thanks to all those who left me encouraging words about my challenge. I really appreciate all of the support. 😉 I will definitely keep all of you posted on the continuous progress.

Welcome › Forums › General PowerShell Q&A › Adding Variable to Hash Table.
This topic contains 9 replies, has 3 voices, and was last updated by

How would I add $hashAdmin to Hash Table?
PS C:\Windows\system32> $hashadmin.gettype()
IsPublic IsSerial Name BaseType
——– ——– —- ——–
True True String[] System.Array
PS C:\Windows\system32> $hashAdmin
July 24, 2014 at 11:55 am #17460
$hashAdmin is apparently an array, not a hashtable, according to your output. What are you trying to do with it?
July 24, 2014 at 11:57 am #17461ParticipantPoints: 22Rank: Member
$ht = @{}
$ht.SomeArray = $hashadmin
You can add it just like any other element just as long as you assign it a key.
July 24, 2014 at 12:00 pm #17462
Would like to convert that variable to a object. I figured since it already in the correct hashtable format there should be a way to just add it.
$obj= New-object PSobject -property $hashadmin
But I think it still see it as an array.
July 24, 2014 at 12:04 pm #17463
I see. As luck would have it, your strings are in a format which makes it possible to use the ConvertFrom-StringData cmdlet (which will give you your hashtable):
$stringArray = [string[]]@( 'Domain="village"' 'Name="catman"' ) # at this point, $stringArray is the same as the $hashAdmin variable # from your original post. # ConvertFrom-StringData expects a single string, not an array, so we # join the array into multiple lines: $string = $stringArray -join "`r`n" $hashtable = ConvertFrom-StringData -StringData $string # Now, you can create a psobject from the hashtable. $object = New-Object psobject -Property $hashtable $object
July 24, 2014 at 12:10 pm #17464
Below is the code so far. I would like to add the value of the $hashAdmin to a PSobject. Because the array is already in the correct key = value format . Simple said I want to convert it from an array to a hash table
$adminMember= Get-wmiobject win32_groupuser | where {$_.groupcomponent –like '*"Administrators"'}
Foreach($admin in $adminMember ){
$groupComponent = $admin.Partcomponent
$hashAdmin= ($groupComponent -split "\.")[1] -split ","
July 24, 2014 at 12:18 pm #17465
That worked perfectly.
Domain Name
—— —-
"SecretComputername" "SecretUser"
"almosttheweekend" "Domain Admins"
$adminMember= Get-wmiobject win32_groupuser | where {$_.groupcomponent –like '*"Administrators"'} $hash=$null $hash=@{} Foreach($admin in $adminMember ){ $groupComponent = $admin.Partcomponent $hashAdmin= ($groupComponent -split "\.")[1] -split "," $string= $hashAdmin -join "`r`n" $hashtable = ConvertFrom-StringData -StringData $string # Now, you can create a psobject from the hashtable. $object = New-Object psobject -Property $hashtable $object }
July 24, 2014 at 5:48 pm #17466
You can get that same information quite a bit more easily, if you like (without resorting to string parsing steps):
$group = Get-WmiObject Win32_Group -Filter 'Name = "Administrators"' $group.GetRelated('Win32_UserAccount') | Select-Object -Property Domain, Name
Edit: I tested this on a home computer that's not a member of a domain. For domain-joined computers, you may need to modify it slightly to make sure Get-WmiObject returns the correct group.
July 25, 2014 at 5:30 am #17474
I need to check for local admin account membership on my system. For some reason the code is not exiting when complete. Any idea why it might not exit?
July 25, 2014 at 5:45 am #17475
If you're in a domain environment, using WMI to check for group memberships (or anything account-related, for that matter) can take a ridiculously long time. I'd recommend using ADSI instead, or if you just want to display the information on screen, you can just run the old "net localgroup Administrators" command.
