Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition performing strongly at retail
The physical, retail version of Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition was the best-selling Xbox 360 game in its launch window, according to Mojang founder Markus "Notch" Persson.
Noting that the disc version of Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition had been out for a few days on Twitter, Persson went on to reveal it's selling just about as terrifically as everybody expected.
"And they're telling me it's currently the fastest selling console game in the US. Neato!" he said.
Minecraft hit US retail earlier this month. It seems almost impossible that not everybody already owned a copy of Minecraft; the Xbox 360 version has sold over 6 million units and players have logged a cumulative total over 1 billion hours, the Pocket Edition has shifted 10 million and so has the Mac and PC version.
It's coming to Xbox One now, too. Gosh.
Haha, so apparently the physical disc version of Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition has been out in stores for several days. Had no idea. ;D

Damsels in shining armor...riding to the rescue! Deirdre, Helena, and Miriel, three kick-arse Scots wenches known as The Warrior Maids of Rivenloch, aren't about to become any man's chattel, until they meet heroes who are strong enough to tame their wild ways and worthy enough to win their wayward hearts.
Born to the blade and raised to fear no one, Deirdre of Rivenloch never shies away from a fight and never turns her back on a threat to her land or her family. But she's never met a man like Sir Pagan Cameliard, the bold and powerful knight who comes at the king's command to make a marriage alliance with Rivenloch. To save her younger sister, Deirdre tricks Pagan into marrying her instead, and now she faces a new kind of enemy who crosses swords with her by day and lays siege to her heart by night.

4.5 stars. This is one story that improves as you progress through to the end. I didn't care of Deirdre at in through over half of the book plus the beginning was drawn out. But oh, how it improves and the ending (battle) was so vividly written, I felt I should have a sword to help defend. The secondary character's are so richly written too. There is lovemaking, that happens (finally) within marriage. Pagan has the patience of a saint! I am not going into the storyline as others have explained it, but this is a unique storyline. I have my suspicions as to who the Shadow is, so will be completing the series so I can be sure, plus the next story seems to has to be filled with fire and brimstone, since it deals with sister number 2 and Colin. I read the Shipwreck first, which is the prequel to the sister's stories. As of now this book is free, and worth your time because of the last 1/3 of the book is amazing. (ljb)
The leading lady is a bit of a jerk. I'm all for strong women, but she was something else. However the story is pretty great.
Well written but extremely slow and frustrating, the heroine is cruel to her husband, which makes very annoying to keep reading. If the other 2 are the same, I doubtly spend the money. It's no fun to be frustrated while you do something you enjoy as much as reading.
I found this story to be an okay read. It is the first in a series of three but I think I will stop with the first. I use to devourer this type of story but my tastes have changed. If you enjoy story set in Scotland, using scenarios that are farfetched and a little dragged out you should enjoy this story.
Ok read. I would not have paid money for iit though.
of rollicking Scottish/Norman fun. A different take on antagonism turning into mutual respect and love, this is a worthwhile read
I liked this read kept me interested
Felt rushed at the end and it's part of a series. Lots of unanswered questions.
Great heroes
A 240 page free romance book of a Norman sent by King David of Scotland to obtain a remote Scottish keep by choosing one of the daughters of Viking heritage for his bride. Peeping toms, skinny dipping, Viking women warriors, humor, angst, temper tantrums, deception, virgin sensibilities, and descriptive sex scenes. Some scenes were glossed over on description, so you assumed the actions of castle life - it helped if you were familiar with other historical romances of this time period. And the teenage angst of the girl/woman's reactions to him and fighting were repetitive. Good free book to fill in some time. An excerpt for next in series provided.
Great read. Can't wait to read second book in series.
Enjoyed the book. The editing needs some work, but a great story. Highly recommend.
Enjoyed reading the story
Love all stories set in Scotland. Bold strong female for the time. Enjoyed the book
The characters were interesting. Setting was what I like to read about.
I loved this story between Deirdre and Pagan! I love to read about strong female characters, especially from times in history when women are looked at as inferior. I can't wait to read the next one about Helena!
I really enjoyed this 2 Sword Fighting Women.They were tough.The king sent one knight to marry one of the girls and he fell in love with her. He had to fight with her with his sword to win her. They were attacked by the English. And I enjoyed this book very much. It was very exciting to read.I couldn't put it down.This is about Bold Heroes, men and women.I hope you like Castles and knights in shinning Armor and very Sexy ladies that are hard to tame.The hero of the story is "you don't want to know, you would not believe me if I told you" Dare you to read this!!!
Really enjoyed this one!
Good story
I loved the courage of the Lady. She would do what she liked and would not ever be subjected to be turned from it. The marriage of these 2 people were fruitless at first but began to grow with every encounter. Even with problems and arguements protruding from every corner, they survived. And came out with more than they could hope for, and then some. I like this story a lot. Best ive read this week. But im not going to read the next books, because i think it would spoil everything i just experienced and felt in this book. Ruin the story perhaps. Pages: 267 -CID XD

Scenes from Newtown, Connecticut
A collection of images taken in and around the small town in the aftermath of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
A collection of images taken in and around the small town in the aftermath of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
JAFO001: The most amazing thing about this article is that Andrew Romano was able to pry his lips away from Hillary's backside long enough to actually make a couple of decent points. Trump does indeed act like a Caudillo (Latin American strongman) more than he does a presidential candidate. And his hardcore supporters often act more a cult or revolutionaries than supporters. We're supposed to be a nation of laws, not men. If we really are at the point where a lot of voters think that only some sort of uber-man can save us, then the system is in worse shape than any of us would like to admit. That said, it would be nice if Romano would stop his butt-kissing long enough to acknowledge that Clinton has her own tendencies towards authoritarianism and plenty of arrogance, to boot. To say nothing of a record that is frankly, quite awful in many areas. Especially foreign affairs. The U.S.' role in the unmitigated disaster that was the involvement in Libya was primarily her doing. And all the pretty speeches and kneepad journalism in the world won't change that. It's going to be a tough 4 years ahead, folks. No matter who wins in November.

Lawyer urges jury to spare a killer in Xbox murders
Published: Tuesday, August 1, 2006 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, August 1, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
ST. AUGUSTINE -- A convicted killer was "too scared and unintelligent" to resist his co-defendant's plans to kill six people, a psychiatrist told jurors Monday in the penalty phase of their murder trial for the revenge slayings over an Xbox video-game system.
An attorney for Michael Salas, 20, was putting on his case to keep his client off death row.
He was convicted last week along with the group's ringleader, Troy Victorino, and another man of first-degree murder for beating six people to death with baseball bats at a Deltona home in August 2004.
The jury will recommend whether the men should receive life in prison or the death penalty. It takes only a majority vote to recommend a death sentence.
"Michael Salas will die in prison. Your verdict finding him guilty of first-degree murder assured it," his attorney Jeff Dees told jurors.
Michael Maher, a physician and psychiatrist in Tampa, told jurors Salas was following orders from Victorino, 29. Maher said Salas told him he participated in the attack but did not believe he killed anyone.
"This is a young, immature kid, with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, with a low IQ, who is small and frail. He goes along with the crowd," Maher said.
Salas has an IQ level between 81 and 84, he said.
Maher and Salas' aunt, Stephanie Salas, a physician from Pensacola, painted a bleak picture of his early life. His mother abused heroin and alcohol when she was pregnant, they said. His father also used heroin and drank to excess.
His mother left when he was 4 years old and his father died of an AIDS-related illness when the boy was 9, the witnesses testified.
After his father's death, Salas and his two brothers moved in with grandmother, Anna, who was also caring for other children and her husband, who had severe medical problems.
Stephanie Salas said her nephew suffered from ADHD and was forced to repeat the third and eighth grades before dropping out of school in the ninth grade.
Attorneys for co-defendant Jerone Hunter, 20, were scheduled to put on his case later Monday, and the cases of all three men were expected to go to the jury this afternoon.
Prosecutors said victim Erin Belanger, 22, had Victorino and some of his friends evicted from her grandmother's vacant house in Deltona. He became angry when she kept his video game system and some clothing, so he organized the killings, prosecutors said.
A fourth defendant, Robert Cannon, 20, pleaded guilty in October to all the charges. But when he took the stand early in the trial, he refused to testify and said he wanted to withdraw his guilty plea because he was innocent.

Is mobile operation of a ham radio really safe?
The federal government is currently considering the possibility of legislation banning the use of cell phones and texting. I'm mostly okay with that, because, quite frankly, it's obvious that people aren't very good at operating a cell phone or texting while driving, a fact which has been reinforced by study after study. But while many radio amateurs accept this conclusion with respect to cell phones, radio amateurs as a whole seem to think that it doesn't apply to operation of an amateur radio transmitter while the vehicle is in motion. Witness the quotation from ARRL CEO David Sumner:
According to ARRL Chief Executive Officer David Sumner, K1ZZ, it boils down to the difference between simplex -- when only one message can be sent in either direction at one time -- and duplex -- a communications mode, such as a telephone system, that provides simultaneous transmission and reception in both directions. Harrison, citing Sumner's 40-plus years of experience as an Amateur Radio operator, puts it this way: "Simplex, two-way radio operation is simply different than duplex, cell phone use. Two-way radio operation in moving vehicles has been going on for decades without highway safety being an issue. The fact that cell phones have come along does not change that."
via ARRLWeb: ARRL NEWS: ARRL President Presents League's Views on Distracted Driving Laws to Safety Advocacy Group.
But here's the thing that bothers me. This is just a bold assertion: that operation of simplex radios is inherently safer than duplex radios. Here is what the NSC President Janet Froetscher had to say about the subject:
The NSC position is grounded in science. There is significant evidence that talking on cell phones while driving poses crash risk four times that of other drivers. We are especially concerned with cell phone use because more than 100 million people engage in this behavior, with many doing so for long periods of time each day. This exposes these 100 million people and everyone who shares the road with them to this increased crash risk every day. This combination of risk and exposure underlies our specific focus on cell phones.
We are not aware of evidence that using amateur radios while driving has significant crash risks. We also have no evidence that using two-way radios while driving poses significant crash risks. Until such time as compelling, peer-reviewed scientific research is presented that denotes significant risks associated with the use of amateur radios, two-way radios, or other communication devices, the NSC does not support legislative bans or prohibition on their use.
That is not to say that there is no risk associated with drivers using amateur or two-way radios. Best safety practice is to have one's full attention on their driving, their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road. Drivers who engage in any activity that impairs any of these constitutes an increased risk. While the specific risk of radio use while driving is unmeasured and likely does not approach that of cell phones, there indeed is some elevated risk to the drivers, their passengers and the public associated with 650,000 amateur radio operators who may not, at one time or another, not concentrate fully on their driving.
This is widely being circulated as vindication of the idea that operation of a ham radio while simultaneously operating a motor vehicle is safe. Unfortunately, I don't think that is an accurate representation of Froetscher's position. Froetscher merely said that she was unaware of any scientific, peer reviewed studies that demonstrated a significant safety risk. As we should all know, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. David Sumner's assertion that simplex is inherently safer than duplex is just that: an assertion, and is not evidence.
The fact is that humans are very bad at evaluating risks and their own performances at tasks. That's why we have scientific studies like the ones that we have for operating cell phones. Because there are 100 million cell phones being used literally every day, there is plenty of data to sift through on their potential role in accidents. Even so, it's taken about a decade for the true extent of the risks involved in cell phone operation to become documented.
There are only about 660,000 or so hams licensed in the U.S. The vast majority of these do not operate mobile. The vast majority of those do probably spend most of their time listening. In such a case, we'd expect that the number of accidents caused to be much lower than those caused by cell phones, even if mobile operation was every bit as dangerous as using a cell phone. The overall instance of accidents may be only 0.1% or less of the levels we see from cell phones. One study estimated that 6000 accidents might have been caused by cell phones in California in 2001. Even if ham radio were as dangerous, we might expect to see only six accidents in the entire year from ham radio operation.
I'm not saying that we should outlaw mobile ham radio operation. Without evidence that it is dangerous, I think it is premature to make it illegal. But I also think that it is inappropriate to confidently assert that we understand what the risks are, and that we actually present no significant risk to ourselves or to others on the road.
Addendum: Ben makes an additional point which I think is worthy of mention. The ARRL is in part justifying their opposition to bans on mobile radio by suggesting that amateur radio serves a vital purpose in supporting emergency communications. I think this is a somewhat odd claim to make, since it should be fairly obvious that the overwhelming majority of emergencies are reported by calling 911 on the cell phone. Many states have exemptions for mobile cell phone use in times of emergencies: you can report an accident while calling 911 while your car is in motion. The ARRL could choose to suggest to its members that only emergency communications be carried out while the car is in motion, but instead, they suggest that the possibility of using a mobile radio to report an emergency justifies their free use for routine communications while the vehicle is in motion. I agree with Ben, I don't think this is a reasonable "best practice" suggestion.
One slightly convincing argument that I haven't heard, but which I can imagine someone making is that without the incentive of being allowed mobile operation, radio amateurs won't install mobiles in their vehicles, and therefore we lose a valuable resource for reporting accidents and dealing with emergencies. This is an argument which I might seriously consider, and could be made compelling with the right sort of quantifiable evidence to determine the tradeoffs of different regulatory strategies.

Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 81
Providing Eagle Scouts to lead Chelmsford and America since 1976
Well done, Jared!
Thank you to everyone who stopped by my solar exhibit during last night's Court of Honor to learn about renewable energy.
Here's a rundown of what I had on display (all products are from Goal Zero):
Veteran scouts who have previously attend summer camp and adults will be able to take the swim test for summer camp in the pool at the Egan Center. They won't need to take the test on Sunday at Summer Camp.
The Spirit of Adventure Council's Fall Camporee will be on the Charles River in Boston. Please register online or on the sign-up sheet at one of the next 2 upcoming troop meetings to take advantage of the $10/person discount (ends next Friday May 13).
On May 3 at 7pm the Spirit of Adventure Council invites every member of the council to participate in a conversation that'll truly help neighborhood parents deliver Scouting. It's the presentation of the "how" and "when."he "how" and "when."

Anyone know what song this is? Sorry for bad quality. I had to get it off my iPod

I'm trying to find a certain dub cue and I'm having no luck so far...
It's a piano and strings cue that appears frequently throughout the series. It's essentially the dubbed Tuxedo Mask theme, but much slower and more melancholy. Examples of its appearance include the very end of "Worth a Princess' Ransom" (dub episode 18) when they kiss on the balcony at night, and also in the middle of "An Artful Attack" (dub episode 24) when Peggy is describing her art and she says "a lot of my ideas come to me in my dreams [this little bit is complemented with some shots of her paintings, including this Nephrite/Naru one]
Thanks for any and all help!

I'm pretty sure this is going to be a head-slap moment once I figure it out, but can anyone identify this song:
(The linked file contains two 25-second-ish clips, so the total sample is less than a minute. Hope that's within bounds.)
I went through a period of collecting the "Best of" Anime Theme compilations that the studios put out periodically, and I assume this was on one of those... but my CD's are all packed at the bottom of a storage POD right now, so I can't dig through them all to check.

Hello everyone,
i'm sorry for the long title. I'll try to be short on the post.
I am looking for the name of the insert song on Episode 10 of the second season of Darker than Black. It starts at 09:26 and ends at 11:48.
I have looked all over the internet, found many people looking for the song too but no one was able to figure it out. The song is not on the OST albums nor I have found anywhere else for download. I can't even find the name.
If anyone can, I would really appreciate the help.
Thank you very much.

Hello everyone.
I first heard this theme about ten years ago, on a public access television show. (Based in Manhattan)
It has haunted me ever since. Since I do not know what it was (but remember it well), I whistled it and uploaded it to Youtube. (It was instrumental)
Does anybody know what this is?

The song I'm searching for are not from any anime, but I thought that some people here actually listen to other japanse songs.
It's a song I listened to a lot for a bout a year or so, I should remember her name 'cause she is famous, but it's completely still in my head.
Anyway, I remember some from the musicvideo. There she is riding a bike and she transforms into a superhero, all in pink and she wears glases. She also seem to be in love or something with a guy that works in a bar. Anyone knows what I'm talking about?

1 Introduction
[2] The sparkling patch of sunlight reflected on the ocean can be readily seen in any optical images acquired from the shore or the deck of a ship as well as from a plane or a satellite platform. The peak of intensity due to the sunlight reflection on the rough sea surface, commonly referred to as sunglint, occurs in the vicinity of the theoretical location of the specular reflection spot that would be obtained for a flat sea. The whole area where sunglint is present is called Sun glitter and its extent is spread by a myriad of glints generated by reflection of sunlight on the facets of the water surface that are tilted toward the observer [Torrance et al., 1966]. Hulburt [1934] worked out the geometry of Sun glitter as it relates to Sun elevation and wave slope, but did not consider the detailed optics of single glints. Later investigations conducted by Cox and Munk [1954a, 1954b] led to quantitative and statistical results about the link between sunglint and sea state. Their results have been widely used in many topics of remote sensing. The contribution of the sunglint signal to the top of atmosphere radiance is much higher than that of the radiance scattered by both the atmosphere and the ocean layers. Hence, it is of great interest to determine how the sunglint influences the satellite radiometric measurements [Gordon, 1978].
[3] The performances of the inversion algorithms of the satellite measurements to retrieve aerosol parameters or ocean color radiometry are generally strongly impacted by the sunglint contamination of pixels. Therefore, the sunglint radiance component needs to be accurately estimated either to be explicitly exploited by inversion algorithms to derive some geophysical products or to filter the contaminated data within satellite images. In most cases, the sunglint contaminated pixels are masked and excluded from data analysis. Note, however, that Wang and Bailey [2001] proposed some low threshold values of the sunglint radiance component for which the sunglint contribution to the total signal could be removed thus allowing the application of inversion algorithms of the sunglint free radiance. The great majority of remote sensing inversion algorithms relies on the Cox and Munk (CM) model [Cox and Munk, 1954a, 1954b], which uses the wind speed and wind direction as inputs, to determine the sunglint radiance component. However, the CM model can suffer either from a lack of accuracy of the input wind parameters or from a deviation of the slope statistics relatively to the real-world sea state conditions [Kay et al., 2009]. Since the pioneering work of Cox and Munk [1954a, 1954b], a great number of studies has been dedicated to gaining understanding of light interaction with the ruffled sea surface. As examples, the importance of investigating the interaction of light with a rough ocean was clearly showed through the recent interdisciplinary observational and modeling efforts of the RaDyO program [Dickey et al., 2011], through the development of new instrumentation aiming at characterizing the effects of sea surface on light [Darecki et al., 2011; Ottaviani et al., 2008b], and through radiative transfer modeling accounting for a rough ocean [Ottaviani et al., 2008a; You et al., 2011].
[4] Sunglint information obtained in the visible and near-infrared wavelengths can be a useful source of data for many applications. For example, the sunglint spectral information can be used to cross-calibrate different satellite spectral bands [Hagolle et al., 2004; Nicolas et al., 2006] or for polarization measurement calibration [Toubbe et al., 1999]. Sunglint measurements can also provide information about the atmosphere such as water vapor content [Aoki et al., 2002; Gao and Kaufman, 2003; Kleidman et al., 2000] or the absorbing component of aerosols [Kaufman et al., 2002]. In addition, sunglint features can be used, as in the original study of Cox and Munk [1954a, 1954b, 1956], to derive the state of the sea surface [Breon and Henriot, 2006; Ebuchi and Kizu, 2002; Ross and Dion, 2007] or even the surface wind speeds [Breon and Henriot, 2006; Harmel and Chami, 2012]. They could also reveal internal waves within the ocean [Jackson, 2007]. The sunglint properties have been recently exploited for oil spill monitoring [Chust and Sagarminaga, 2007; Hu et al., 2009]. Corrections of satellite data for the sunglint signal could also be of great interest to increase the accuracy of retrieval of below-surface conditions and oceanic biomass [Hu, 2010; Steinmetz et al., 2011]. Thus, if the sunglint radiance and polarization components can be accurately estimated, it could lead to important applications.
[5] The Polarization and Anisotropy of Reflectances for Atmospheric Sciences Coupled with Observations from a Lidar (PARASOL) satellite sensor was orbiting among the five Sun-synchronous satellites forming the so-called A-Train until the end of 2009. Since then, the French space agency Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES) decided to drift its orbit for maintenance purposes. The originality of PARASOL sensor mostly relies on its capability to measure the polarization state of light (namely the Stokes parameters I, Q, and U) for various wavelengths and for a high number of directions (up to 16 directions) [Parol et al., 2004]. An atmospheric correction algorithm, the so-called multidirectionality and POLarization-based Atmospheric Correction (POLAC) was recently developed to exploit the original features of the PARASOL sensor (i.e., multidirectionality and polarization) for improving retrieval of aerosol optical properties and ocean color radiometry [Harmel and Chami, 2011]. In the present study, the multidirectionality and polarization properties of PARASOL sensor are analyzed in depth for determining the contribution of sunglint component to the top of atmosphere signal. The underlying idea is to use the multidirectionality and polarization signatures of the radiation, rather than the sole monodirectional radiance signal as it is currently used for usual ocean color sensors (e.g., SeaWiFS, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) or Medium-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) sensors), as robust physical constraints to quantify the sunglint signal. In this objective, a new method (so-called POLAC-glint) is developed and implemented within the POLAC algorithm to identify the sunglint pattern in the PARASOL satellite images.
[6] The paper is organized in five sections as follows. Theoretical background of the sunlight reflection on ruffled sea surface is first described. Then, the main features of the PARASOL satellite sensor and the inversion scheme of the published POLAC algorithm are summarized (section 2). The new method developed to detect the sunglint signal (POLAC-glint algorithm) is presented in section 3. In section 4, the POLAC-glint algorithm is applied to actual PARASOL images and an original extension of POLAC-glint approach for the detection of cloud edge is proposed. The validation of the sunglint components (Stokes parameters) retrieved by POLAC-glint algorithm is presented in section 5.

There's a new strategy in town. It's turning the SEO tables, causing established giants to fall by the wayside as smaller competitors make their mark in search rankings.
It's powerful; it promises to deliver sought-after SEO treasures, top spots on SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages), without any technical wizardry or dark magic required at all. How can this be done? How can such small rivals take on these seemingly impassable contenders - and win?
The truth is that the strategy behind these impressive feats does not involve anything mysterious or untoward. There are no short cuts; nothing clinging to a grey area, trying to escape the all-seeing eye of Google. The winning strategy is completely above board.
The great secret behind this success is actually disappointingly straight forward; it's about doing what you say you will and doing it well. The problem with so much SEO advice is that it simply over-complicates a field that is already littered with jargon.
Too many brands enter into some kind of bizarre battle with Google, believing there is no other way to compete than to use underhand tactics, trying to navigate the SERPs while skirting the threat of penalties.
This is not the way to win. The way to beat larger, more powerful rivals is to take them by surprise; by doing it honestly and transparently. It's about going back to basics.
What is a website for? Is to inform, entertain or persuade your customers into making a sale? If you can create a website that offers interesting, relevant, regularly updated content, it will become worth seeking out and the powers that be - aka search engines - will recognise it as such.
There is no need for dirty tactics. Sites are currently being compromised in this incessant race to get to the top, brands are receiving hefty penalties, all the while losing business.
This is all entirely unnecessary. The way to make your mark on SERPs is simply to maintain a website which does what it says on the tin and develop good quality, clean links from sources which you trust and build good relationships with.
If brands stopped cutting corners and using SEO "tricks" they would be in for a pleasant surprise. SEO is like anything else; if you do it well, you will be rewarded.
Copyright © 2016 Gary Taylor, digital director of specialist digital and media agency TMWI and co-founder of the rugby website Ruck.
The world of search engine optimisation (SEO) has changed. Websites that tried to trick Google are now reaping what they have sown, with disastrous results. Instead of getting lots of traffic and making lots of sales, their SEO tactics have led to the exact opposite result. No traffic and no sales.
The sad thing is that the owners of these websites often had no idea what their SEO agency was up to. The owners were offered "No.1 ranking" in return for cash, and simply handed the money over.
Typically that cash was used to pay 'link farms', based abroad. These are the bad boys of the SEO world. Many of them use automated systems to 'scrape' content from respectable sites such as the Marketing Donut and upload it onto a series of new sites. They then sell links from these new sites, to boost the ranking of whichever web pages those links go to.
But Google algorithms are always getting smarter. And Google also has a small army of humans who search out and penalise such 'black hat' SEO practices. Well known websites such as Interflora and Halifax — and more recently the law firm Irwin Mitchell — have found themselves removed from the Google rankings. In 2013 Interflora only reappeared in the rankings once the company had already missed out on millions of pounds worth of flower sales over the crucial Mother's Day period.
Noisy Little Monkey has been brought in to sort out several such messes and in one case we found no fewer than three million spammy links in place — none of which the website owners knew about, as they had simply trusted the SEO agency to get on with improving the rankings.
Google eventually has to reinstate big brands such as Interflora, as so many people search specifically for the brand name and Google has to serve its users. But the same is not true of a small business. In some cases you cannot even re-use your old content on a completely new website, as Google treats it as the same website that was given the penalty previously. At this point businesses are better off jettisoning their website and starting afresh with a new URL and new content.
All of which is irrelevant if you have always followed the guidelines that Google publishes. These guidelines can be summarised in two words: Don't cheat. If you do anything that is not 'natural', it is probably cheating. Paid-for advertorial that has a link back to your website is cheating, as that link would not be there unless you had paid for it. So if you want to do advertorials, make sure that any links in the content are 'no-follow' links.
And we can all recognise a spammy link when we see one. For example, those annoying website comments: Great post! Paul Paul's Office Furniture [with an optimised link to a page on Paul's furniture website]. Unless the comment and the link are contributing to the discussion, the purpose of such comments is as obvious to Google as it is to the rest of us. 'Low value' links like this will not help your website's rankings at all.
Proper SEO in has always been about optimising each page. The easy wins are the same as they have always been. Choose one or two key phrases that you want a page to rank for. Mark up the HTML carefully. Optimise the page title of each page. Make full use of high quality online directories such as Google+ Local, Yell and maybe your local chamber of commerce (ie those directories that people use to find things) and make sure that your contact details are identical, including even the spaces in your phone number — which ideally should have a local code and not an 0845 code.
Above all, you need to have high quality content, because that is what Google and the other search engines are all about. Put yourself in Google's shoes. If someone searches for 'Solicitor in Bristol', there may be 50 firms to choose from. Which one would you rank at the top? It would be the site that has traffic, that visitors spend time on, and that people link to and mention in blogs and in social media — all of which adds up to a winning digital footprint. It would not be a site that people arrive at and then quickly leave.
Finally, if you are using an SEO agency, make sure you know what they are doing. Google Webmaster Tools is free and is easy to use. If nothing else, just look in the messages section. Any really bad news from Google about your website will be in there.
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is the way of improving visibility by trying to ensure one has as high a web ranking as possible when relevant searches are undertaken. This is visibility in unpaid or organic search results as opposed to those opportunities which companies pay for in order to be found.
As many people's first port of call, when looking for a new product or service, is a search engine, the importance of coming up in the first few entries, on a relevant search, is widely understood.
Many people, however, still think of SEO as separate from any social media activity they undertake. However, this is simply no longer the case. Social media is fast becoming the major way that people are sharing and, therefore, discovering new information online. This means that search engines have long had to take into account social media activity and incorporate it into their search results. This is because so much web activity is undertaken on social platforms and so failure to do this would start to render search results irrelevant.
The trend, however, has been fast tracked by the creation of the Google + platform. Google is now incorporating brand pages from the platform into search results. They are also providing users with the option to see relevant search information, gathered from their connections, in the Google + network.
This means that if businesses want to ensure they show up in the searches that people undertake, they have to address their social media activity as part of their SEO strategy, not as a separate entity. In other words, the lines are blurring between what is traditional SEO and what is social media activity. Over time, they are very likely to become almost one and the same thing.
Social Media Optimisation (SMO) is not as familiar a phrase as SEO. However, it is now becoming increasingly important in the effectiveness of SEO.
Businesses must increasingly ask themselves what they are trying to convey in a piece of social media activity. By understanding the message they are trying to put across, they will be able to ensure they use the relevant keywords in order that the content is found.
Furthermore, companies must ask where the value in their activity is for a customer. It is only by ensuring that they are adding value, from a customer perspective, that businesses can protect themselves from falling into the trap of simply using social media platforms to broadcast their message. Simply broadcasting is not engaging and is likely to damage a company's reputation over time.
Finally, businesses must ask themselves why and how they would expect someone to share any content they create. Without making it easy for people to share content and without giving them a reason to do this, companies miss out on the biggest opportunity social media provides. That is, not all marketing and communications have to be undertaken by your business.
Today, those people engaged with your organisation have the means to market and communicate your business for you. These communications are more likely to be well received because they are not sent by a company but by one's friends and colleagues. Moreover, these are people you could probably never hope to reach any other way.
One of the trends for 2012 is the increasing socialisation of information. The web is becoming social. The lines between activity on social platforms and other web activity are becoming blurred. Failure to incorporate social media as part of your overall SEO strategy will render it less likely that your organisation appears in the search results of your potential customers.

Back in February I wrote about the growing fashion to buy up multiple keyword-rich domains — like "big-grey-widgets.com", "small-grey-widgets.com" etc — in the hope of gaining higher rankings on Google. There was some evidence that this type of domain could indeed rank well, without requiring many inbound links. At the time, though, I cautioned against this approach. Google has a history of acting against such practices by de-emphasising the spammy element and wiping out any benefit gained. Since then, we have seen it do just that with links on article sites.
Now it seems that the big G may indeed be preparing to act against spam in domain names. In March of this year, Google spokesman Matt Cutts slipped the news into one of his popular YouTube videos. You can watch the whole video here.
So if you are one of those who bought up a raft of keyword-enhanced domains, now is the time to prepare for their disappearance. If you've being considering doing it, don't bother.
This recurring pattern of action and reaction by website owners and Google does raise an interesting question. What will happen when every ranking factor that could be spammed, has been spammed, and Google has de-emphasised all of them? Theoretically we should end up pretty much back where we started, except that the whole web will be stuffed with spam.
It's always tempting to look for the magic bullet that will fire you onto the top page of Google, and the potential rewards are obvious. Forty percent of external traffic to websites comes from search (source: Outbrain), and in the UK over ninety percent of that comes from Google. But to build a sustainable online business with rankings that will stand the test of time, you need to provide good quality site content that is useful to your customers; and invest in building a network of links from good quality and relevant sites.
Anything else is vapour.

What is SEO and why should you be doing it?
Keyword research — a beginner's guide
Three SEO mistakes you must avoid
Google has made two big announcements recently that could have a huge impact for online businesses. An algorithm change could promote better customer service with the rumoured possibility that positive customer ratings may result in a more favourable search page ranking on Google.
The second announcement is a new partnership with Twitter to display the social networking site's paid advertisements within Google's own search results. Here's what these changes could mean for you.
As with all things Google-related, the search engine kingpin is being decidedly ambiguous on the subject and although they have publicly stated that positive merchant ratings could be taken into consideration when deciding on rankings, they have yet to actually admit they are definitely using ratings as a ranking factor.
But Google does appear to be closely monitoring customer ratings and feedback and there is a high likelihood that the Google algorithm has been updated to include merchant rating when populating SERPs.
One online store publicly revealed that they had previously been manipulating customer feedback to improve search engine rankings. Basically, the website owner fuelled negative customer response and it is alleged that the sudden tirade of comments and feedback led to the website gaining greater online exposure and an increase in its search engine rankings.
The new algorithm may have changed that that. Whether these tactics did improve the retailer's ranking is debatable. But Google took notice and admitted to an algorithm alteration. Now the website in question appears to have slipped down the rankings since the algorithm change.
Google has suggested that they were concerned about beneficial ranking results from negative feedback and that any recent algorithm alterations were intended to provide a better customer experience. However, there is some speculation that Google is now monitoring positive merchant ratings as well using various sources such as: actual website feedback, consumer websites, and Google Checkout.
This is a positive move if true. If the Google algorithm now includes a feature that monitors and rewards websites receiving beneficial consumer feedback it is great news for any online business providing quality service. If a reputable online business can see an improvement in their search engine rankings due to positive consumer feedback, this will provide a real incentive for businesses to increase their level of consumer service and satisfaction.
Social networking behemoth Twitter has finally bowed under pressure to monetise the site. It has been on the cards for a while now and Twitter has responded and decided to fill its cash coffers by means of paid advertising.
Promoted tweets are similar to Google Adwords. Promoted tweets will appear at the top of Twitter searches and already some major companies have signed up to appear on Twitters search pages. There is also an opportunity to purchase slots in Twitter's Trending Tweets feature. At the moment, this new feature is being trialled in the US (it was rolled out in April last year) and has already attracted some major players. The plan is to offer this monetised feature to the UK soon (possibly early this year but no actual date has been confirmed).
Twitter comments already feature regularly within Google's search engine pages. The recent emphasis on providing relevant, up-to-date, real-time content within search results has led to a massive increase in the amount of blog, forum, and social media posts featuring in top positions in SERPs.
Google has realised the potential of Twitter's Promoted Tweets monetisation and both market leaders have joined forced to create an advertising golden team. Google will now feature Promoted Tweets from Twitter search results on its own search result pages. The format will be very similar to how it already displays its own Adwords listings, except the Promoted Tweets will be clearly labelled as Ads by Twitter.
The two companies will share the revenue earned form these paid promotions.
Any business with an effective online presence campaign should already be using the power of Twitter for marketing and consumer interaction. Many businesses are running successful Adwords campaigns and have seen the success they can achieve. Now, not only can a business generate extra interest from Twitter users, any Promoted Tweets they have in place stand a great chance of appearing on the first page of Google for their specific keyword(s). It is almost a two for one offer.
Twitter has already had talks with many interested companies working the UK market and some of the more prominent businesses showing real interest include: Sky, Vodaphone, Sony, O2, Ladbrokes, LoveFilm, and Capital One.
Google introduces new features at fairly regular intervals and keeping on top of these changes can be crucial to maintaining a positive online presence for businesses. These new developments could be very important for many businesses looking to increase their target audience and online visibility.
Any online merchant should count customer satisfaction as their number one goal. But with the possibility that Google is monitoring and potentially using these consumer ratings to determine search page rank, positive customer opinion is now more important than ever.
Using social media as an influential marketing tool is nothing new, but while Facebook and other social networking giants already provide a platform for paid advertising, Twitter has never offered this prime opportunity. But with Promoted Tweets they have finally offered marketers a much-welcomed advertising platform and it should be available to UK business very soon. With the news that Promoted Tweets will also be featured in Google search results, it is a very exciting prospect indeed.

Since we launched our small business resource website in April many people have found the Marketing Donut through typing various queries into search engines. When we looked under the bonnet of our website, we found some more curious examples of the search terms people have entered. Either accidentally or intentionally, people found their way to the Marketing Donut by searching the terms from the following list:

Dalia Dūdėnaitė and Elena Narbutaitė. Sleeper
An exhibition by Dalia Dūdėnaitė and Elena Narbutaitė, previously shown at Peep-Hole in Milan, Italy in spring 2011
"For instance, it would have been more difficult to notice the gas stations without making connections between more cities and more places in different parts of the world. Vilnius is a memory and a model for this exhibition, due to its specific urban layout it sometimes illustrates the meanings of the word "sleeper" accurately – a sleeper is a phenomenon that exists and has an effect on its environment but is not yet noticed or perceived.
Imagine a city which has already been built – the shops, the hairdressers' parlours, the schools are all working – but it is not yet conscious of its own operation, it does not yet know what it creates or how things circulate. It becomes open – it does not reflect itself, but allows the environment to do so, and thus expands far beyond its own limits. A city like this can turn up in front of you in a different place, at a different time."
Sleeper: an exhibition as a house observed by an animal from a shadow of a forest, cars passing by
So it all began in the streets of Vilnius, a city with big gasoline stations where the periphery is all over the centre. You walk a few steps and the city becomes an open field, a few more and it turns into a village. If it was winter we'd talk inside a car, and in the summer we'd open the doors and you could sometimes even hear the fields. This situation of rapidly changing distances would often remain unnoticed, but would penetrate the mind anyways. Was it the memories and the speed of driving that created those fast connections?
The cities with big gasoline stations can suddenly cut up the urban boundaries, like an animal that observes people and like people who sometimes notice it. Such acts of observing are on display at the exhibition
The exhibition features the artworks by Dalia Dūdėnaitė and Elena Narbutaitė that have not yet been shown in Vilnius, and a mobile created together with paper engineer and designer Mike Malkovas, currently based in Paris, who also contributed to the publication (
. Published by the CAC, Vilnius with Mousse Publishing and Peep-Hole, Milan).

Now, I got the first one by using the like triangles. This is my work, please tell me if I'm right: $$\frac{t}{h}=\frac{x+t}{r}\Rightarrow x+t=\frac{rt}{h}\Rightarrow x=\frac{rt}{h-t}$$ Now, I figure that $(b)$ must use the same concept (big triangle=little triangle). But I don't know what or how to do so. Please, give me general hints and only start me off, do not solve this problem for me.
For (b), use similarity to conclude that $$\frac{x}{t}=\frac{r}{w},$$ where $w$ is the remaining side of the little triangle. There remains some work to do.
