Prince William and his wife Catherine have officially registered their nearly 3-week-old son, Prince George Alexander Louis.
Our favorite part of the form? His parents' occupations. Wills, 31, is listed as "Prince of the United Kingdom," rather than Royal Air Force helicopter pilot, and Kate, also 31, is listed "Princess of the United Kingdom." Tony job descriptions, no?
Ordinarily, parents have to go to the registrar's office within 42 days of their child's birth. But Georgie is no ordinary baby. Instead, the deputy registrar of Westminster, Alison Cathcart, paid Kensington Palace a visit, according to the Daily Mail. (Oh, to be Ms. Cathcart!)
"It was a pleasure," she said. "Westminster City Council registered the birth of the Queen and Prince Charles and princes William and Harry, so it's great to see that tradition continue."
Wills filled out the standard form for the birth of "His Royal Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge."
Such a long name for such a tiny guy!
The rest of the document bore many royal deets too, including baby George's birthplace (St. Mary's Hospital, Westminster), William's birth place (Paddington, Westminster), Kate's birth place (Reading), Wills' full name (His Royal Highness Prince William Arthur Philip Louis Duke of Cambridge), Kate's full name (Catherine Elizabeth Middleton) and their usual address (Kensington Palace, London).
And papa prince autographed the document with a simple scripted scrawl that said: "William."
Meanwhile, Prince Harry on Friday said he was relieved that his brother and his wife had successfully produced a royal heir, a.k.a. Prince George.
The 28-year-old royal, relegated to fourth in line for the British throne when his nephew was born July 22, was speaking at an event for the Royal Marines and their family at Her Majesty's Naval Base in Devonport, Plymouth.
The prince was there to launch the newly built Royal Marines Tamar, a center that will be used by operational and training units for small-craft crews of landing craft, hovercraft and fast boats.
"My father is over the moon to be a grandfather," Harry said Friday of his father, Prince Charles (via People).
"No pressure then?" asked Tasha Reilly, 35, a guest of her partner, Lt. Col. Tristan Harris, 42.
"No, he's got one [grandchild] now, it will be fine," Harry said. "The pressure's off now."
Guess so, because that would put his child as fifth in line, assuming Georgie boy doesn't have any other siblings ...

October 7, 2012
HERSHEY, Pa. – Braden Holtby stopped 27 shots, Alex Berry scored his second consecutive game-winning goal and the HERSHEY BEARS ended the pre-season on a high note, defeating the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins by a 3-1 score on Sunday evening at GIANT Center.
Both teams battled through a scoreless, tight-checking first period before the BEARS were finally able to open the scoring. With both teams skating one man down, a collapse in defensive coverage in the Penguins' end of the ice left Brett Flemming wide open in the high slot. Flemming took a pass from Mattias Sjogren, waited and sent a snap shot inside the right post past netminder Brad Thiessen at 10:52.
The hosts then opened up a 3-0 lead on two quick goals in the third period. Berry scored just 26 seconds into the stanza after Joel Champagne took a shot through traffic that Thiessen fought off. The rebound bounced to his left, and Berry was there to deposit the rebound up high.
One minute into the period, Flemming was whistled for a slashing penalty, but it was the BEARS who would capitalize. Jeff Taffe stole a pass in the neutral zone, turned up the speed down the left wing wall, cut to the slot and beat Thiessen over the glove for his first of the pre-season at the 1:51 mark.
Jayson Megna finally got the Penguins on the scoresheet when he completed a two-on-one down low. Megna took a cross-crease pass from Brian Gibbons and tapped the pass behind Holtby at 4:08.
The game was physical, with Steve Oleksy dropping the mitts twice in the game. Matt Clackson brought the crowd to life with his second-period tilt with the Penguins' Adam Payerl.
Although the BEARS could not muster a power play goal on five chances, the penalty kill was perfect on the Penguins' five opportunities.
Holtby earned the win in a solid performance, while Thiessen took the loss, making 16 saves on 19 BEARS shots.
The BEARS open the 2012-2013 regular season this Saturday, October 13 at 7:30 PM on the road against the Syracuse Crunch. The club opens their home schedule on Saturday, October 20 with a 7:00 PM faceoff against the Rochester Americans. The first 8,000 fans will receive a team schedule magnet, courtesy of PNC Bank. Tickets for this game and all HERSHEY BEARS home games are on sale at the GIANT Center box office, by calling (717) 508-BEAR, or online at TicketMaster.com.

text: Former Arizona Rep. Don Shooter shows health improvement Top Stories 4 must play golf courses in Arizona The vital role family plays in society "The story of my innocent daughter Anni who lost her life here in Cape Town on her honeymoon still remains incomplete. The full picture will only emerge when Shrien comes down to Cape Town and faces the trial," said Vinod Hindocha, Anni Dewani's father. "Me and my wife have not slept a full night since Anni left us. And Shrien holds the key to that."Judge Robert Henney, who found Mngeni guilty in November, did not hold back his contempt while sentencing the 25-year-old on Wednesday for the killing. Henney said that the shooter showed no remorse and his longtime illnesses could not weigh against receiving the harshest penalty available by law.Mngeni, who had surgery in June 2011 to remove a brain tumor, has suffered seizures and black outs and has troubles remembering things, his lawyer has said."The interest of society, as well as the serious nature of the crimes that the accused has committed, doesn't allow my conscience _ even though I have pity for the accused _ to impose any other sentence than life imprisonment on the accused for the callous, calculated and brutal manner in which he ended the life of Anni Dewani," Henney said. Comments Share Construction begins on Chandler hospital expansion project The judge added: "It is difficult to imagine the absolute terror and horror she must have endured as she stared down the barrel of the gun, which was pointed at her the moment before she was killed."Mngeni showed no emotion during the sentencing Wednesday, putting his head down on a bannister in the courtroom and glancing over at Anni Dewani's family at one point. He gave a brief thumbs-up to his family as he left the court and his lawyer quickly left without speaking to journalists.In August, Mngeni's alleged accomplice Mziwamadoda Qwabe pleaded guilty to charges over the killing, receiving a 25-year prison sentence. Zola Tongo, the taxi driver that police say husband Shrien Dewani asked to plot the killing, earlier received an 18-year prison sentence. Both Tongo and Qwabe have said Dewani wanted it to look like he wasn't involved his wife's slaying and they planned to have the attack look like a carjacking in Cape Town's impoverished Gugulethu township.The men were paid 15,000 rand (about $2,100) for the killing, Qwabe and prosecutors have said.In a statement provided as part of his plea deal, Qwabe said that after he and Mngeni staged a fake carjacking, he drove the car as Mngeni kept a 7.62 mm pistol pointed at Anni Dewani in the backseat and then pulled the trigger, the fatal shot going through her neck. Panicked, Qwabe said he stopped the car and got out, helping Mngeni find the spent bullet casing. He threw the casing into a sewer as they ran away into the night. Mary Coyle ice cream to reopen in central Phoenix Bottoms up! Enjoy a cold one for International Beer Day Sponsored Stories Associated PressCAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) – A South African judge sentenced the triggerman in the 2010 honeymoon slaying of a Swedish bride to life in prison Wednesday, calling the shooter "a merciless and evil person" who deserved the maximum punishment for his crime.The sentencing of Xolile Mngeni for the killing of 28-year-old Anni Dewani comes as prosecutors still await word whether the newlywed's British husband, who they say orchestrated the November 2010 killing, will be extradited to South Africa to stand trial. The bride's family, who attended the sentencing with a picture of her smiling pinned to their chests, said justice would only be done once husband Shrien Dewani stands before a South African court. Arizona families, Arizona farms: A legacy of tradition embracing animal care and comfort through modern technology Officials at first thought the crime was robbery. The rate of violent crime is high in South Africa but attacks on foreign tourists are rare.Shrien Dewani has denied he hired anyone to kill his wife and was allowed by authorities to leave South Africa for the United Kingdom, where he was later arrested. In March, a U.K. High Court ruled that it would be "unjust and oppressive" to extradite Dewani to South Africa, as his mental condition had worsened since his arrest there.In the time since, Dewani, 32, has been held at a secure mental health institution in Bristol. At a court hearing earlier in the week in London, officials said Dewani spent his time playing computer games in an old van at the facility, according to the Press Association. Dewani's mental condition will be reviewed in April, with a full extradition hearing set for July.(Copyright 2012 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Flooded Acapulco hit by looting as tourists airlifted
ACAPULCO, Mexico (AFP) Mexican military and commercial flights airlifted hundreds of tourists stranded in the flooded resort of Acapulco, where thousands of looters ransacked stores after two deadly storms struck the country.
The official death toll rose to 47 Tuesday after the tropical storms, Ingrid and Manuel, swamped large swaths of Mexico during a three-day holiday weekend, sparking landslides and causing rivers to overflow in several states.
Several regions were still being battered by heavy rains and floods. While Ingrid dissipated after hitting the east coast Monday, the US National Hurricane Center said Manuel regenerated as a tropical depression south of the Baja California peninsula.
Officials said 40,000 Mexican and foreign beachgoers were marooned in Acapulco hotels after landslides blocked the two main highways out of the Pacific city, while knee-high dark water covered the airport's terminal, cutting off the picturesque resort city of 680,000 people.
Back in town, thousands of looters streamed out of the Costco wholesale store in the exclusive Diamante district, wading out of the flooded store with food, televisions and even fridges while soldiers and federal police looked on, AFP correspondents said.
"We are taking food to our children, there's nothing to eat," said a woman hauling away grocery bags.
Other looters broke glass doors to enter shops in two malls, snatching home appliances and mattresses.
"We can't stop them. We are in a serious emergency situation," a soldier said, declining to give his name.
Meanwhile, tourists and residents formed huge lines to buy food at three supermarkets that remained open.
Interior Minister Miguel Angel Osorio Chong warned it would take two to three days to reopen the two highways out of Acapulco, which lies in the hard-hit southwestern state of Guerrero.
The airport terminal remained closed, but passengers were driven directly to the runway from a concert hall turned into a shelter and operations center for the airlines.
The military and Aeromexico and Interjet airlines began to fly people to Mexico City. Transport Minister Gerardo Ruiz Esparza said around 600 people had been flown out so far.
Interjet president Miguel Aleman Magnani said flying into Acapulco was complicated, because the radar was out and there were few dry spots on the runway.
"It's all visual — like in the old days," he told radio Formula.
Aeromexico said it planned to fly 2,000 people out by Wednesday.
Some 2,000 people were sheltered at the World Imperial Forum, where tourists lined up at an improvised airline counter, luggage in hand, hoping to get on a flight. Another 1,000 people were taking refuge in a convention center.
The airlines were transporting people with prior reservations first. Aeromexico was charging $115 and Interjet $77 for new tickets.
"We're deciding whether we return by plane or wait for the road to open, but the problem is food," said Andres Guerra Gutierrez, a Mexico City resident who arrived by car with 14 family members last Friday.
"It was a weather phenomenon, but they should have warned us that a storm was coming, so we could at least buy food," he said.
The first military flight carrying aid landed late Monday.
More than half the city was flooded, officials said. Some residents traveled on jetskis while federal police said helicopters rescued some 200 people from rooftops.
Osorio Chong said the weather systems affected 254 towns nationwide, forced 39,000 people to evacuate, caused 100 rivers to overflow and killed at least 47 people.
It was the first time since 1958 that two tropical storms hit Mexico within 24 hours.
Manuel struck the Pacific coast on Sunday while Ingrid weakened from hurricane to tropical storm strength as it made landfall on the northeastern coast on Monday.
Valentin Mario Calderon, who was staying in Acapulco's Mayan Palace Hotel with his wife and three nephews, secured a flight leaving Tuesday.
"The deluge came Sunday. We thought a tsunami was coming, and we put our faith in God," Calderon said.

English, est. 1759
Teapot, c. 1850
12 x 9 x 13.5 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Barry Ursell
G-94-223 ab
Ceramic, Decorative Arts Ceramic
Josiah Wedgwood (1730–1795) was responsible for numerous contributions to British ceramics. In 1774 he developed Jasper—a dense, white stoneware that could be thinly potted and that accepted both stains or thin washes. With its bas-relief ornament, Jasper (also known as Jasperware) quickly proved popular for Neoclassical decoration. Such is the case with this teapot with various classically inspired figural passages enlivening its surface. The relief decoration on the teapot's lid is taken from designs by Lady Elizabeth Templetown (1747–1823), an amateur sculptor and artist who designed for Wedgwood between 1783 and 1789. Her designs focused on women and children, and indeed the scenes represented on this example include maternal affection and domestic employment. The teapot features a widow finial—a sculpted in-the-round figure of a seated woman, her shawl pulled over her head.

It's summer's inaugural weekend, which means that you can begin in earnest your mission to swim with as many marine mammals as will tolerate the erratic vibrations your awkward flopping makes in the water. I'm not saying that one of those animals will definitely be this adorable orphan seal pup, but you'll never know unless you put on a snorkel and get out in the ocean.

First lady Michelle Obama is going all-out to make sure the White House kitchen garden that she created in 2009 and expanded twice doesn't get plowed under by the next first family.
With less than four months left in the Obama administration, the first lady on Wednesday was unveiling an expanded and improved garden with the hope that it will endure regardless of who takes office come January.
The garden's size has grown from an original 1,100 square feet to 2,800 square feet. It has a new wooden arbor for an entrance, wider bluestone walkways, wooden tables and benches.
U.S. & World
There's even an inscribed stone that reads: "White House Kitchen Garden, established in 2009 by First Lady Michelle Obama with the hope of growing a healthier nation for our children."
And, to bat away any pesky questions about how to pay for the garden, the first lady announced private donations of $2.5 million to maintain and preserve it.
This patch of raised beds is much more than a garden to Mrs. Obama: It's her legacy, at the heart of her years-long quest to fight childhood obesity and promote healthier living.
School students will join the first lady on Thursday for the Obamas' final fall harvest, bringing in eggplant, okra, tomatoes, herbs and much more. Then, in coming weeks, the beds will be covered with plastic hoop houses to allow vegetables such as broccoli, kale and collard greens to grow right through the winter — and into the next administration.
Much as the first lady wants to see the garden endure, the next first family can decide whether to keep it or go in a different direction.
Neither campaign responded to a request for comment on what a Trump or Clinton administration might do with the kitchen garden.
But it's fair to speculate that it might be a higher priority for Clinton than Trump.
Clinton is known for eating lots of fruits and vegetables. Trump, not so much.
As first lady, Clinton directed chef Walter Scheib to bring "contemporary American cuisine and nutritionally responsible food to the White House," Scheib later wrote. There was even a small garden on the White House roof for growing produce, according to Scheib, who died in 2015.
Trump, for his part, loves red meat and is proud to patronize McDonald's and KFC.
What started for Mrs. Obama as a fairly simple kitchen garden in 2009 grew into her broader Let's Move initiative to promote healthy eating and habits.
Over the years, the garden has supplied fruits and vegetables for the first family, soup kitchens, guests at White House receptions and other events, even state dinners.
Students from around the country have helped with planting and harvesting, and 335,000 visitors have toured the garden over the years.
The garden updates were a joint endeavor of the National Park Service and the University of Virginia School of Architecture, whose students designed the new layout, arbor, table and benches.
The furniture speaks to the first lady's vision of an enduring garden: It is made from reclaimed wood from Thomas Jefferson's Monticello in Virginia, James and Dolley Madison's Montpelier in Virginia and Martin Luther King Jr.'s home in Atlanta.
The Burpee Foundation and the W. Atlee Burpee Company contributed the $2.5 million to the National Park Foundation to ensure the garden is maintained.

Hazelnut Coconut Pancakes: Eating whole while camping!
This past labor day weekend we stayed local and enjoyed the beauty of the Catskill Mountains in our backyard. This meant this lucky little lady went camping! Marley, the newly adopted rescue, went on her second camping trip and was well-behaved (yay!). I always say, just because we're camping, it doesn't mean we can't eat […]
Chocolate Coconut Fruit Cookie Bar
This very well be one of the most requests I have! And I know why, they're addicting and absolutely scrumptious! These cookie bars are always a hit with every eater! 🙂 The fruit fillings can be as creative as you can get! I love strawberry, raspberry, cherry, blueberry, or even banana filling!

NEW YORK - Dillon Gee beat Washington for the third time this season and the New York Mets scored the go-ahead run when third baseman Ryan Zimmerman and shortstop Ian Desmond made errors on the same play to top the Nationals, 5-1, on Saturday.
Daniel Murphy delivered three hits, and first baseman Josh Satin started a pair of double plays for the Mets. The Nationals fell back to .500, losing to the team with the worst home record in the majors.
Gee (6-7) limited Washington to one run in six innings, allowing six hits and three walks.
Taylor Jordan (0-1) lasted 4 1-3 innings in his big league debut. He was promoted from Double-A and gave up three runs, although two errors by Zimmerman helped make two of them unearned.
� Braves 11, Diamondbacks 5: In Atlanta, Jason Heyward hit a tying RBI double, and Andrelton Simmons scored the go-ahead run on the same play in a seven-run eighth inning that lifted Atlanta over Arizona.
The Braves rallied for their 23rd comeback victory, tops in the National League. Atlanta has won two straight and four of five.
The Diamondbacks have lost four of five.
Braves starter Tim Hudson extended his winless streak to 10 straight starts, allowing five hits, four runs and four walks with two strikeouts in 5? innings.
David Hernandez (4-5) retired the first batter he faced in the eighth, but pinch-hitter Reed Johnson and Simmons were both hit by pitches before Heyward doubled.
� Rockies 2, Giants 1: In Denver, Nolan Arenado hit a game-ending single with two outs in the ninth inning to lift Colorado past San Francisco, which has lost six straight for the first time in three years.
Colorado's Michael Cuddyer singled in the first inning to extend his hitting streak to 26 straight games.
Todd Helton was walked by reliever Jeremy Affeldt (1-4) with two outs in the ninth for Colorado's first runner since the second inning.
Josh Rutledge ran for Helton, stole second and scored when Arenado singled up the middle to help the Rockies return to .500 (41-41).
Andres Torres had three hits, and Buster Posey had two hits and an RBI for the defending World Series champion Giants, who last lost six in a row from June 26 to July 2, 2010.
� Marlins 7, Padres 1: In Miami, Jacob Turner pitched a seven-hitter for his first complete game in 19 career starts, helping Miami beat San Diego.
The complete game was the first for the Marlins this year. They had been outscored 20-3 while losing their first four games to San Diego this season, but the lowest-scoring team in the majors gave Turner a 6-0 lead after four innings.
Giancarlo Stanton hit his eighth home run, Jeff Mathis had two RBIs, and Placido Polanco became the 22nd active player to score 1,000 runs.
Turner (2-0) struck out seven, walked one and threw 111 pitches, 77 for strikes. The right-hander lowered his ERA to 1.76 in six starts since being recalled from Triple-A.
The Marlins (28-51) have the worst record in the majors, but they are 14-10 in June.
Eric Stults (6-6) gave up a season-high six runs, five earned, in 3? innings. The start was his briefest since 2009.
The Marlins took a 3-0 lead in the first inning and added three runs in the fourth.

Posted by Philip Belove on June 18, 2004
HI. Thanks for your help.
I'm developing a thesis that midlife and midlife crises and the idea of a rich and meaningful middle years (35 to 60) really emerged in the U.S. only in the last 50 years. The 1900 census only considered peole in the age range 19-44!
so I am looking for when the phrase "life begins at 40" entered the culture. It seems to be a common cliche today. But when did peopel start saying it? Any help on this one?
Thanks again
Please write me directly.
Philip Belove.

Loatheb looks slightly complicated but after a few tries becomes easy to understand. It requires people to look outwards and pay attention. You only need to have one tank on him for the entire encounter.
Everyone gets a 16 second debuff that reduces healing by 100%. After that, you have a 4 second window to heal players up before the debuff gets reapplied.
Secondly, something else that makes this fight that much easier is a different debuff called Fungal Creep. There are going to be periodic mobs called Spores that will spawn. When you destroy them, they give 5 players the Fungal Creep debuff. It increases your critical chance by 50% and your spells cause no threat. The Spores die relatively quick and should take no more than 4 spells before they spontaneously combust.
Set up shop on the central platform.
Healing Makeup
Matt's group:
- Resto Shaman
- Holy Paladin
- CoH Priest (me!)
You'll definitely want an AoE healer for this fight. Try to time your heal around the warnings that appear. We tasked the Paladin to do nothing but heal the main tank on this fight. The Resto Shaman would heal group 2 while I was parked in group 1. The mechanics to Chain Heal has changed slightly so that if you target the initial player with the spell, it will only jump to other party members instead of going raid wide. With the Glyph, it will bounce to 4 targets total.
3 seconds before the debuff wears off, light up a Prayer of Healing. You want to time your heal so that it lands just as it wears off and it sets you up for 2 or even 3 Circle of Healing taps on the 2nd group.
What about the debuff phase?
At this stage, all you need to worry about is wanding and doing DPS. Keep an eye on your mana. Be sure you don't DPS more than you have to. Your Power Word: Shield will still work. Don't hesitate to throw that up there whenever you get the chance on your tank.

Matt Cutts' statement in March 2012 that Google would be rolling out an update against "overoptimised" websites, caused great turmoil within the SEO community. A few days later thousands of blogs were removed from Google's index and Matt tweeted confirming that Google had started taking action against blog networks.
Related: How to Find and Monitor Bad Backlinks Using Link Explorer
Even though thousands of low-quality blogs of low or average authority were manually removed from Google's index, they weren't the only victims. For instance, www.rachaelwestdesigns.com, a PR7, DA70 domain was also removed, probably due to the very high number of blog roll (site-wide) backlinks.
These actions indicate that the new update on "over optimised" websites has already begun to roll out but it is uncertain how much of it we have seen so far.
At around the same time, Google sent to thousands of webmasters the following message via Google's Webmaster Tools:
In the above statement, it is unclear what Google's further actions will be. In any case, working out the number of "artificial" or "unnatural links" with precision is a laborious, almost impossible task. Some low-quality links may not be reported by third party link data providers, or even worse, because Google has started deindexing several low-quality domains, the task can end up being a real nightmare as several domains cannot be found even in Google's index.
Nevertheless, there are some actions that can help SEOs assess the backlink profile of any website. Because, in theory, any significant number of low-quality links could hurt, it would make sense gathering as many data as possible and not just examine the most recent backlinks. Several thousand domains have already been removed from Google's index, resulting in millions of links being completely devalued according to Distilled's Tom Anthony (2012 Linklove).
Therefore, the impact on the SERPs has already been significant and as always happens in these occasions there will be new winners and losers once the dust settles. However, at this stage, it is a bit early to make any conclusions because it is unclear what Google's next actions are going to be. Nevertheless, getting ready for those changes would make perfect sense, and spotting them as soon as they occur would allow for quicker decision making and immediate actions, as far as link building strategies are concerned.
As Pedro Dias, an Ex-Googler from the search quality/webspam team tweeted, "Link building, the way we know it, is not going to last until the end of the year" (translated from Portuguese).
The Right Time For a Backlinks Risk Assessment
Carrying out a backlinks audit in order to identify the percentage of low-quality backlinks would be a good starting point. A manual, thorough assessment would only be possible for relatively small websites as it is much easier to gather and analyze backlinks data – for bigger sites with thousands of backlinks that would be pointless. The following process expands on Richard Baxter's solution on 'How to check for low-quality links', and I hope it makes it more complete.
- Identify as many linking root domains as possible using various backlinks data sources.
- Check the ToolBar PageRank (TBPR) for all linking root domains and pay attention on the TBPR distribution
- Work out the percentage of linking root domains that have been deindexed
- Check social metrics distribution (optional)
- Repeat steps 2,3 and 4 periodically (e.g. weekly, monthly) and check for the following:
- A spike towards the low end of the TBPR distribution
- Increasing number of deindexed linking root domains on a weekly/monthly basis
- Unchanged numbers of social metrics, remaining in very low levels
A Few Caveats
The above process does come with some caveats but on the whole, it should provide some insight and help in making a backlinks' risk assessment in order to work out a short/long term action plan. Even though the results may not be 100% accurate, it should be fairly straightforward to spot negative trends over a period of time.
Data from backlinks intelligence services have flaws. No matter where you get your data from (e.g. Majestic SEO, Open Site Explorer, Ahrefs, Blekko, Sistrix) there is no way to get the same depth of data Google has. Third-party tools are often not up to date, and in some cases, the linking root domains are not even linking back anymore. Therefore, it would make sense filtering all identified linking root domains and keep only those still linking to your website. At iCrossing we use a proprietary tool but there are commercial link check services available in the market (e.g. Buzzstream, Raven Tools).
ToolBar PageRank gets updated infrequently (roughly 4-5 times in a year), therefore in most cases the returned TBPR values represent the TBPR the linking root domain gained in the last TBPR update. Therefore, it would be wise checking out when TBPR was last updated before making any conclusions. Carrying out the above process straight after a TBPR update would probably give more accurate results. However, in some cases, Google may instantly drop a site's TBPR in order to make public that the site violates their quality guidelines and discourage advertisers. Therefore, low TBPR values such as n/a, (greyed out) or 0 can in many cases flag up low quality linking root domains.
Deindexation may be natural. Even though Google these days is deindexing thousands of low-quality blogs, coming across a website with no indexed pages in Google's SERPs doesn't necessarily mean that it has been penalized. It may be an expired domain that no longer exists, an accidental deindexation (e.g. a meta robots noindex on every page of the site), or some other technical glitch. However, deindexed domains that still have a positive TBPR value could flag websites that Google has recently removed from its index due to guidelines violations (e.g. link exchanges, PageRank manipulation).
Required Tools
- Excel
- NetPeak Checker OR SEO Tools for Excel
For large data sets, NetPeak Checker performs faster than SEO Tools, where large data sets can make Excel freeze for a while. NetPeak checker is a standalone free application which provides very useful information for a given list of URLs such as domain PageRank, page PageRank, Majestic SEO data, OSE data (PA, DA, mozRank, mozTrust etc), server responses (e.g. 404, 200, 301) , number of indexed pages in Google and a lot more. All results can then be exported and processed further in Excel.
1. Collect linking root domains
Identifying as many linking root domains as possible is fundamental and relying in just one data provided isn't ideal. Combining data from Webmaster tools, Majestic SEO, Open Site Explorer may be enough but the more data, the better especially if the examined domain has been around for a long time and has received a large number of backlinks over time. Backlinks from the same linking root domain should be removed so we end up with a long list of unique linking root domains. Also, not found (404) linking root domains should also be removed.
2. Check PageRank distribution
Once a good number of unique linking root domains has been identified, the next step is scrapping the ToolBar PageRank for each one of them. Ideally, this step should be applied only on those root domains that are still linking to our website. The ones that don't should be discarded if not too complicated. Then, using a pivot chart in Excel, we can conclude whether the current PageRank distribution should be a concern or not. A spike towards the lower end values (such as 0s and n/a) should be treated as a rather negative indication as in the graph below.
3. Check for deindexed root domains
Working out the percentage of linking root domains that are not indexed is essential. If deindexed linking root domains still have a positive TBPR value, most likely they have been recently deindexed by Google.
4. Check social metrics distribution (optional)
Adding in the mix the social metrics (e.g. Facebook Likes, Tweets and +1s) of all identified linking root domains may be useful in some cases. The basic idea here is that low-quality websites would have a very low number of social mentions as users wouldn't find them useful. Linking root domains with low or no social mentions at all could possibly point towards low-quality domains.
5. Check periodically
Repeating steps 2, 3 and 4 on a weekly or monthly basis, could help to identify whether there is a negative trend due to an increasing number of linking root domains being of removed. If both the PageRank distribution and deindexation rates are deteriorating, sooner or later the website will experience rankings drops that will result in traffic loss. A weekly deindexation rate graph like the following one could give an indication of the degree of link equity loss:
Note: For more details on how to set-up NetPeak and apply the above process using Excel please refer to my post on Connect.icrossing.co.uk.
Remedies & Actions
So far, several websites have seen ranking drops as a result of some of their linking root domains being removed from Google's index. Those with very low PageRank values and low social shares over a period of time should be manually/editorially reviewed in order to assess their quality. Such links are likely to be devalued sooner or later, therefore a new link building strategy should be devised. Working towards a more balanced PageRank distribution should be the main objective, links from low-quality websites will keep naturally coming up to some extent.
In general, the more authoritative & trusted a website is, the more low quality linking root domains could be linking to it without causing any issues. Big brands' websites are less likely to be impacted because they are more trusted domains. That means that low authority/trust websites are more at risk, especially if most of their backlinks come from low-quality domains, have a high number of site-wide links, or if their backlink profile consists of unnatural anchor text distribution.
Therefore, if any of the above issues have been identified, increasing the website's trust, reducing the number of unnatural site-wide links and making the anchor text distribution look more natural should be the primary remedies.

Be sure to not promote your blog.
Samsung and Android go together like peanut butter and jelly. Android wouldn't have gained so much market dominance without Samsung's Galaxy line, and that Galaxy lineup wouldn't exist without Android. Surely these two would enjoy a long, peaceful relationship for the foreseeable future, right? Maybe not. Samsung is reportedly looking at launching several phones running Tizen instead of Android in 2013. Now, this isn't weird for Samsung, as they do have other phones running Bada, although they don't have the success Android does, but if Tizen does well enough in its initial Eastern launch, don't be surprised to see Samsung slowly bring a few devices across the sea.
Samsung is understandably in a position where it really needs to make sure it isn't too dependent on another partner, like Google. If Google were to take Android down a path that Samsung didn't agree with, for instance, it wouldn't hurt to have a backup plan. This is obviously speculation for something that won't happen for another several years, so no one should worry about the Galaxy S IV running something other than our beloved Android. But if Samsung did launch a competing OS and app ecosystem, would any of you give it a chance?

Hope all you in the UK watched the first parts of Curtis' new doco 'All Watched Over By Machines of Loving Grace' last night (whilst I had to labour for about 3 hours to get proxy server shite working so I could watch it on BBC iPlayer).
I assume there are Adam Curtis fans here?
Viewing all of his documentaries, most of which can be found here http://thoughtmaybe.com/browse/video/adam-curtis and reading virtually the entire contents of his blog at http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/adamcurtis/ has changed my view of power and human relations immeasurably. He is certainly has one of the finest political minds of our times, and added to that has a most unique and beautiful aesthetic, and a completely original technique.
So, for those who did watch it: Discuss.
