When we released Market Samurai to the public, for the first time in August last year, we offered one BIG unique feature that no other cutting-edge keyword research software had ever offered.
This unique feature wasn't the highly accurate keyword traffic estimates (available for the first time), accurate SEO and Adwords click estimates (still unique to Market Samurai), highly accurate market value of traffic estimates, or the "OCI" tools to measure which keywords were being used by buyers (again, another first).
And it wasn't the no-cost updates that Market Samurai users continue to enjoy – practically every time they open the software.
(Sure, Market Samurai included a heap of "world-firsts" and "innovations". And yes, Market Samurai continues to provide the most in-depth keyword research available anywhere.)
But the most revolutionary feature of Market Samurai's Keyword Research tools was the price tag:
(Completely free – not "limited free", not "trial free"… Fully-functional keyword research software, for free.)
That's Right – Market Samurai's Keyword Research Tools are Free
I'm not kidding.
(A lot of people still don't believe us when they find out – they email support to tell us about a "typo" or a "bug" – they can't believe they're getting something so incredible for free!)
If you're reading this and don't believe me – and you have a trial copy of Market Samurai installed (even an expired trial) – open it right now.
Notice that there is no "Paid Version" or "Trial" icon next to the Keyword Research module?
There never has been.
It's always been free.
Trial access to the other advanced modules inside of Market Samurai will expire (if your trial period has already ended, then it will have expired already) – but you will always be able to use the Keyword Research module for free.
Use it! You have full, unrestricted access to the most advanced Keyword Research tool available – bringing together more raw keyword data than any other keyword tool!
(If you don't have access to Market Samurai yet, and want to get access to the Keyword Research tools (and trial the other advanced features for 12 days) you can get access to Market Samurai for free, here.)
Why Give Away Market Samurai's Keyword Research Tools for Free?
On the surface, it may seem crazy…
Market Samurai's keyword research tools are by far the most in-depth tools for keyword research available anywhere – and we're making them available for free, with no restrictions?
But the reason is simple…
Keywords WANT TO Be Free
In Chris Anderson's latest revolutionary book, "Free: The Future of a Radical Price", he explains how the internet is turning previously costly and hard-to-acquire information into abundant commodities – available at a cost too cheap to meter.
One of these previously costly, hard-to-acquire commodities is Keyword Data.
Every year, the computer processing power, storage and bandwidth costs required to harvest, analyze and distribute keywords has become smaller – to a point where the cost of providing keyword data is now almost zero.
This has seen the keyword research industry split into two parts:
- The Old Players whose big price tags, expensive software and monthly data fees made sense in an era where keyword data was scarce, expensive, unreliable and difficult to access.
- And a New Generation of keyword research tools (like Market Samurai's Keyword Research tools; Google's Wonder Wheel, Keyword Tool and Google Insights; and Wordtracker's Lab tools) all being offered with a price tag of "Free".
One is sinking – and clutching hold to a business model that is no longer justified, delivering less-and-less comparable value to users every day.
The other is growing at an exponential rate – providing keyword data to thousands of new converts with the lure of better value.
And it's not just better value-for-money (after all, you can't get much better value for money than "free").
It's also a better depth and quality of tools provided, with many free options outpacing even the most expensive paid keyword research tools – leading in both new innovations and sheer depth of keyword research – and leaving their expensive rivals to play catch-up.
Given this choice, it was an obvious decision…
One market was dying, one was growing…
It made sense for Market Samurai to follow the growing market, and make its keyword research tools free.
In the immortal words of ice hockey legend Wayne Gretzky – "Skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been."
If users were moving toward free keyword research tools, meaning sooner-or-later all of the best keyword research tools would (inevitably) become free, it made sense for us to get ahead of the market, and become free – sooner rather than later.
So that's exactly what happened…
Market Samurai brought together the best, highest quality, most valuable sources of keyword data – for free. And it continues to move fast to work alongside more free keyword data sources as they become available, keeping users at the cutting edge of in-depth keyword research.
By giving away something of true value, for free – Market Samurai went from being a completely unknown piece of software, developed and used privately by a handful of anonymous internet marketing geeks (us) – to being one of the most widely used and respected internet marketing tools today.
So what pays the bills for Market Samurai?
The way Market Samurai makes money – and the reason people buy – is on the other side of this equation…
…Actually DOING SOMETHING with keywords – and turning them from something that is worthless and intangible – into something valuable.
Keyword are together WORTHLESS, & EXPENSIVE:
A keyword, by-itself, is WORTHLESS…
Saved on your hard-drive, or displayed on your screen – it has no value. It's just a few tiny electrical impulses – perhaps just a few bytes of data, or a few pixels on your screen – and is no more or less valuable than any other pixel or byte on your computer.
In other words – a keyword, by itself, is completely worthless.
A keyword only becomes valuable when you put it to work.
Until you put the keyword to work – by using it to target potential customers through Google Adwords, SEO, or some other means – it can't make a single cent, or bring you a single website visitor.
Here's where keywords are EXPENSIVE…
In order to make the keyword valuable, you need to put it to work.
And in order to put the keyword to work, you need to do something to it.
You need to set up a targeted Adwords campaign, or create some SEO-targeted content, or to do something that unlocks the value inside the keyword.
The True Cost of Keywords
The true cost of keywords – the factor that limits you, or stops you from exploiting thousands of them right now, this very second, for your own personal gains – is NOT the cost of finding them.
(We all know that keywords are abundant, and free – and we can find thousands of great quality keywords in just a few moments using Market Samurai's Keyword Research module – which, again, is free.)
The true cost of keywords is Time, Money, Effort and Skill.
To target a keyword, you need to invest (usually un-equal portions) of each of these commodities if you want to unlock the potential value of the keyword.
- Targeting a keyword through something like Google Adwords will cost money (to pay the per-click costs) and give you an almost instant result, but takes effort to set up.
- Targeting a keyword through Search Engine Optimization might be free, but it takes time until you see a result, and there's a lot of effort required to write articles and build lots of links.
And both of these require a level of skill (knowledge and expertise) if you expect to be successful.
Time, Money, Effort and Skill are almost unavoidable in internet marketing.
(I say "almost" because there are alternatives for making money online that require very low levels of time, money, effort and skill – but these are called "spam", and in many countries this business model will likely land you in jail.)
This is how someone targeting 1 or 10 high-quality keywords will often make more money than someone with 100,000 or 1,000,000 keywords – or why some people make fortunes from a keyword, while others in the same market lose money (think "dog training").
This is because it's not the keywords themselves that make money. Rather, it's how someone invests their time, money, effort and skill putting the keywords to work.
Market Samurai Puts Your Keywords To Work
Market Samurai never set out to compete against the other keyword tools that are out there – you'll see the other keyword tools are the ones competing against Market Samurai.
Market Samurai always had one goal.
To Kick Down the Barriers that Limit People's Success Online: the Scarce Resources of Time, Money, Effort and Skill.
By reducing the time, effort, cost and expertise it takes to DO ANYTHING with keywords – Market Samurai helps people to get faster results, with less effort – meaning better rankings, more website visitor traffic and bigger profits.
If you look at every feature inside Market Samurai – and every one of the dozens of innovations released to users since Market Samurai was first launched – you see this theme:
Monitors and tracks your site's rankings faster an easier than before, giving you more accurate insights into your true rankings in all major search engines, for all of your targeted keywords – so that you have the skill to see if your SEO efforts are profitable, (or telling you if an SEO strategy is a waste of time, effort and money.)
- SEO Competition –
Gives you the skill to know whether you are likely to rank for a keyword, so that you can assess how much time, effort and money it will take to rank – avoid keywords that are too difficult or costly to target through SEO, and focus on the most profitable keywords for better rankings faster with less effort and expense.
- Promotion –
Assesses link-building opportunities, giving you the skill to know which pages are best to target for high-value, high-quality link building (the type of links that give you the best, fastest ranking boosts) so that you don't waste time or effort targeting poor opportunities.
- Find Content –
Assesses the quality of content on the web, giving you the skill to know which articles are considered by search engines to be high value – so that you can either save time and effort researching high-value keyword targeted articles to write for your own niche site – or you can republish low-value articles and save time writing your own article and attract traffic by making the "authority source" your site.
Helps you to find the most profitable affiliate opportunities online, write and publish an ad quickly, with no copywriting skill and very little effort required, and track results (so that you can find the highest-converting affiliate offers for your site) – meaning you can do more marketing in less time, and make more money.
- Publish Content & Adwords -
(Not yet publicly available – but you can bet that the full feature set of these two modules will help you to unlock the value of keywords with less time, effort, cost and skill – and help you to get better marketing results, faster! ;))
Faster, Easier and Better Results = BIGGER PROFITS
It's not the keywords themselves that make money. Rather, it's how you invest your time, money, effort and skill putting the keywords to work that determines your success.
The faster, easier and easier it is – the more you can achieve.
Even though Market Samurai can't do *everything* for you [yet] – it DOES give you the ability to achieve more, with less time, effort, cost and skill.
Each of these time-saving, results-boosting tools focuses on a single pivotal area of online marketing, and helps you to get better results from that area – with less time and effort.
(In fact, the key reason why they're all in one tool – rather than having one keyword tool, one SEO analysis tool, one link building tool etc – is because the time wasted loading and switching between tools adds up very quickly, and is better invested into actually making money!)
And users who sign up for a 12-day trial of Market Samurai get get to trial these advanced features for 12 days at no cost – as well as getting full access to the keyword research module inside Market Samurai.
…And It All Starts With Keyword Research
As for the Keyword Research module – although it's free, it's also the most valuable, most important module of them all – the element that makes everything else work better:
- Keyword Research –
Helps to pick which keywords are the best to focus on and target first – because targeting the best, most relevant, most profitable keywords – you get a better return on the time, effort, money and skill that you invest into your marketing.
This is how someone with 1 or 10 high-quality keywords makes more money than someone with 100,000 or 1,000,000 keywords…
…Because, in the end, it's not the keywords themselves that make money. Rather, it's how someone chooses to invest their time, money, effort and skill actually putting the keywords to work.
Faster – Easier – Cheaper … Getting More Done while actually Doing Less … Making Bigger Profits From Your Keywords, Sooner.

Grains finished lower to start the week. May corn settled 6 cents lower at $6.23 ¼, May soybeans 16 ¾ cents lower at $14.20, and May wheat 7 ¼ cents lower at $6.16 ¼.
Corn continues to get pressure from the favorable planting conditions across the Midwest. Planting progress was expected to come in at 20-25% complete for corn and 2% for soybeans but we won't get those estimates today due to a fire at the USDA in Washington. This also kept the market from receiving the weekly export inspections which are usually released on Monday's at 10:00 am. We will have both of these reports for you as they become available.
Some of the soybean weakness today could be attributed to the Nopa crush data which was released this morning. Crush came in slightly below estimates while the oil stocks were slightly above the average guess. Still neither of these numbers were far from the average guesses so this was more likely money flow from profit taking.
May option expiration may also be contributing to some extra weakness as option writers sell futures to cover short puts. May grain options will go off the board on Friday and the corn put open interest is high at the $6.50, $6.40, and $6.30 levels with a combined 43,066 puts just in those three put strikes alone.
For now we want to stay with the current EHedger recommendations. To receive a free trial of the EHedger research including hedge recommendations, please sign up using the link below. Thanks and have a great week!

Hey guys! Long time no see!
I just wanted to let those who WERE still here know, that I plan on making some big changes to ODN here in the next month or so. Traffic is dead, activity is slowed to a crawl. This is partly due to lack of updates to the software and features, and partly due to lack of marketing and continued activity by our veteran members (like myself).
As a result, I plan to completely redo the site. New site, new database, new site infrastructure, etc. Everything must go! It will be sad to see all the great content disappear into the ether, once and for all. There have been a lot of great debates here. But there's no point in hanging on to the past, especially if it doesn't benefit anyone...that...and if I have to continue paying out of pocket for it every month!
So I plan to restart ODN on a new platform, probably WordPress/BuddyPress to start since I'm a WP developer (I'm biased). I'm not going to expect to revive ODN back to its glory days, but I do expect it to at least have relevant features with relevant content. Even if traffic doesn't pick up much, I'll still use it personally as a blog system and as a social media tool.
I just wanted to stop in, say hi, let you know what I was thinking, and see if anyone was still here.
I'll keep ya posted here as we progress through the plan.

Press Conference
Big Rapids, Mich. - The Ferris State University men's ice hockey team earned a split on the weekend after posting a 3-1 triumph over the Ohio State Buckeyes in Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA) action on Saturday (Jan. 12) night inside the Ewigleben Ice Arena in the series finale between the two teams.
The Bulldogs, who suffered a 3-1 setback to Ohio State in the opener on Friday night, bounced back with a strong first period to seize control in Saturday's contest before a near-capacity crowd of 2,350 fans.
The Bulldogs took a 2-0 lead late in the first period as senior center Travis Ouellette scored his fifth goal of the season just 32 seconds before freshman wing Dakota Klecha scored his fourth goal of the campaign. Ouellette notched the first goal of the evening from the right circle at 13:33 after junior wing Garrett Thompson found the stick of junior defenseman Scott Czarnowczan, who made the pass to Ouellette for his fifth goal of the year. The assists were Thompson's eighth of the season and Czarnowczan's sixth.
Then, at 14:05, Klecha slid the puck past Ohio State goaltender Brady Hjelle's right skate from the far side of the net after sophomore wing Justin Buzzeo won the faceoff and earned his third assist of the campaign.
Following a scoreless second period, Ohio State's Max McCormick registered the Buckeyes' first goal of the night to close the gap to 2-1 at the 7:54 mark of the final frame when he notched the puck over Bulldog sophomore goaltender CJ Motte's left shoulder after it had bounced off the back wall. The feed came from Al McLean and was also assisted by Tanner Fritz.
However, senior wing Kyle Bonis sealed the Bulldog victory with just 24.3 seconds remaining in the final period when he skated through the neutral zone with the puck and scored the third and final goal of the evening on the Buckeyes' empty net in unassisted fashion. It was his team-leading 10th goal of the year.
With the victory, the Bulldogs improved to 10-9-3 overall and 8-7-1 in the CCHA while surging back into a fourth-place tie with the Buckeyes in the league standings. Meanwhile, the Buckeyes dropped to 8-9-5 along with a 7-4-3 record in the CCHA.
Motte was in net for a total of 59:55 and recorded 25 saves while Hjelle played 59:13 between the pipes and also made a total of 25 saves for the Buckeyes. FSU posted a slim 28-26 edge in total shots for the night, which included a game-high 17 in the opening period.
The Bulldogs had six penalties for a total of 12 minutes and the Buckeyes had two penalties for a total of 17 minutes. FSU was unable to convert on two power-play opportunities, but the Bulldogs' penalty kill unit held OSU to an 0-for-6 showing with the man-advantage.
The win was the Bulldogs' third in the past four outings to date this season and also marked FSU's third victory in the last four contests versus Ohio State. Overall, FSU has now won or tied six of the past eight meetings between the two teams.
This weekend's series was the final regular-season competition between the Bulldogs and the Buckeyes in the CCHA.
Following the victory, Ferris State head coach Bob Daniels was recognized on the ice as the area's Northern Lights Award recipient for sports and recreation. The award annually recognizes local community members for their community service accomplishments.
The Bulldogs will be back in action next weekend (Jan. 18-19) as they take on the Michigan State Spartans in a league home-and-home series. Friday's contest will take place at Munn Ice Arena in East Lansing and be televised live on Fox Sports Detroit with opening faceoff set for 7:35 p.m. (ET).
Meanwhile, the two teams will travel back to Big Rapids for Saturday's game at the Ewigleben Ice Arena, which begins at 7:05 p.m. (ET). It will represent the fourth and final meeting between the two schools this season and the last trip to Big Rapids for the Spartans in league regular-season play. FSU departs for the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) and MSU moves to the Big Ten Conference next season.
Tickets for Saturday's home contest can be purchased thru the FSU Athletics Ticket Office, which is open Monday thru Friday from 9 a.m. (ET) to 5 p.m. (ET) with extended hours on Wednesday until 7 p.m. (ET). In addition, tickets can also be bought online at StarTickets.com or by calling 1-800-585-3737. For more information, please call (231) 591-2888 or visit FerrisStateBulldogs.com.

Committee Opinion Number 590, March 2014
(Replaces Committee Opinion Number 487, April 2011) (Reaffirmed 2018)
ABSTRACT: Patient care emergencies may occur at any time in any setting, particularly the inpatient setting. It is important that obstetrician–gynecologists prepare themselves by assessing potential emergencies, establishing early warning systems, designating specialized first responders, conducting emergency drills, and debriefing staff after actual events to identify strengths and opportunities for improvement. Having such systems in place may reduce or prevent the severity of medical emergencies.
Committee Opinion Number 535, August 2012
(Reaffirmed 2019)
ABSTRACT: Increasing numbers of women and adolescent females are incarcerated each year in the United States and they represent an increasing proportion of inmates in the U.S. correctional system. Incarcerated women and adolescent females often come from disadvantaged environments and have high rates of chronic illness, substance abuse, and undetected health problems. Most of these females are of reproductive age and are at high risk of unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Understanding the needs of incarcerated women and adol...
Committee Opinion Number 511, November 2011
ABSTRACT: Clinicians who provide care for incarcerated women should be aware of the special health care needs of pregnant incarcerated women and the specific issues related to the use of restraints during pregnancy and the postpartum period. The use of restraints on pregnant incarcerated women and adolescents may not only compromise health care but is demeaning and rarely necessary.

You can go the route of modesty with a gaming rig—sure, but there's something to be said for the glowing, flowing, completely outrageous rig of conspicuous PC carnage. How about a motherboard that looks like a disassembled gun?
The Gigabyte G1.Assassin straps enormo-heatsinks in the shape of barrels and a full magazine. And it looks surprisingly cool, and surprisingly not-tacky! The gunmetal heatsinks will look great if you've got a window on your case—otherwise, there's not really much point to the commando adornment. On the other hand, it's still a solid (albeit massive—XL-ATX) Gigabyte motherboard, providing eight USB 3.0 ports, room for an i7 CPU, support for 4x CrossFire or 3x SLI graphics, onboard Creative X-Fi, and built-in Killer NIC E2100 ethernet. Although the latter is of highly dubious value. All this doesn't come cheap—$530 is a shit-ton for a motherboard.
But how many motherboard can you take apart and build into a machine gun? Not this one: "Heatsink: Not a weapon. Cannot be assembled as a weapon." Ugh. [Gigabyte via MaxPC]

Margaret Maughan has the impressive distinction of winning Britain's first Paralympic Gold medal at the inaugural Paralympic Games in Rome 1960 in Archery. She went on to compete in four further Paralympic Games, winning a number of further medals.
It was in Malawi that Margaret first encountered archery, watching 'an eccentric Englishman' firing arrows from a bow on a lush, green golf course in 1959. She had no idea at this point that she would be creating British history doing something very similar 12 months later.
Margaret had been working as a teacher in Nyasaland, now Malawi, the landlocked country in south-east Africa, when she was involved in a very serious car crash. The Foreign Office transported her back to the UK for further treatment, where she was admitted into the Stoke Mandeville hospital, the spiritual home of the Paralympic movement, specialising in spinal injuries for injured soldiers from the Second World War.
Margaret started archery as part of a gym session with her physiotherapist. She said that the "treatment was centred around being as active as you could possibly be."
Speaking to Channel 4 in the build-up to this years Paralympic games in London, she discussed her journey to becoming Britain's first gold medalists:
"When you first become paralysed you lose your balance, you can't feel how you are sitting. The archery was brilliant because it made you sit up straight in your wheelchair, you had to spread your arms out and strengthen your shoulders. I enjoyed it and I was quite good at it. I started purely for rehabilitation. I was given a bow and arrows when I left hospital and returned to my family in Lancashire. I found an archery club in Preston and they were very kind to me, they never had a member in a wheelchair before. I did it more as a social thing to get to know people."
"I didn't realise I was going to Rome, but I got this letter inviting me to compete in archery and swimming, for which I was very bad at. But we had a go at everything in those days. In the space of 12 months, I was doing archery in the hospital to winning gold in Rome. I didn't think I had made history, I knew I had won the first British medal for the team. We won 25 golds in total that year with 70 participants."
Margaret won a further two Paralympic gold medals, along with two silvers, at the Tel Aviv (68), Heidelberg(72), Toronto (76) and Arnhem (80) Games in dartchery (a combination of darts and archery) as well as lawn bowls.
Margaret will be attending this summer's games and will be an inspirational figure for all the young athletes competing for Team GB.

This is the Web home for Andy Revkin's music. His first album, "A Very Fine Line," is hailed as "a tasty mix of roots goulash" in Brian Robbins' Relix Magazine Jambands review.
What we have here is a tasty mix of roots goulash. Revkin and company never sound like anyone 'cept themselves, but the vibes they generate may put you in mind of some other makers of marrow music. The left-arm-out-the-window-with-your-heart-on-the-sleeve highway twang of "Grandpa's Cadillac" (wicked guitar and pedal steel by Joe Johnson and Art Labriola, respectively) and the smart/smart-ass lyrics and low-gear chug of "Liberated Carbon" feel like some good ol' John Hiatt. The can't-help-but-sing-along "Bills Bills Bills" could be vintage Commander Cody, with Mark Murphy's whumping upright bass acting as both carburetor and drive shaft. Bruce Molsky's fiddle and Murphy's ominous bass (along with the lightest of percussion from Ken Veltz) ease Revkin's "Black Bird" into a Railroad Earth-style folk-gothic place, while "Breakneck Ridge"'s swing from up-tempo bounce to minor-chorded simmer might put you in mind of RRE's Black Bear Sessions. And "Blame It On Biology" could've been recorded in a cool and goofy-grinning place where Dan Hicks hangs out with the Tijuana Brass....
The title song, about life's close calls.
"Arlington," featuring Dar Williams
A mining death foretold by a bird's flight. Bruce Molsky, fiddle.

JERUSALEM/GAZA (Reuters) - Palestinian militants indicated they were ready for a truce with Israel on Monday to defuse a growing crisis after four days of rocket strikes from the Gaza Strip into the south of the Jewish state.
There was no immediate response from Israel which has warned it is ready to ramp up its air strikes and shelling if the rockets do not cease.
Leaders of Hamas, the Islamist faction that controls Gaza, met with Islamic Jihad and other groups on Monday night and said they would respond according to the way Israel acted - a formulation used in previous flare-ups to offer a ceasefire.
"If (Israel) is interested in calm they should stop the aggression," Sami Abu Zuhri of Hamas told Reuters.
The Palestinian people were acting in self-defense, he said.
"The ball is in Israel's court. The resistance factions will observe Israel's behavior on the ground and will act accordingly," said Khaled Al-Batsh of the Islamic Jihad group.
Throughout the day, Israel warned it was ready for stronger action. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened foreign ambassadors in what an apparent move to pre-empt international censure should Israel, whose 2008-2009 Gaza offensive exacted a high civilian toll, again go in hard.
Netanyahu briefed the envoys in Ashkelon, a port city within range of some Palestinian rockets. "None of their governments would accept a situation like this," he said.
He was due to convene his close forum of nine senior ministers on Tuesday to decide a course of action. Israel Radio said Defence Minister Ehud Barak and military chief Lieutenant-General Benny Gantz had met with Netanyahu on Monday night to present possible attack scenarios.
Environment Minister Gilad Erdan, an influential member of Netanyahu's Likud party, said the briefing was meant to prepare world opinion for "what is about to happen", adding there might be a major Israeli escalation within a few hours.
"Hamas bears responsibility. The heads of Hamas should pay the price and not sleep at night. I expect to see not just a return to targeted killings, but also to very wide activity by (the army)," he told Israel Radio.
Hamas took part in some missile launches at the weekend but it did not claim responsibility for attacks earlier on Monday, suggesting it was looking to step back from the brink.
The Israeli military said Palestinians had fired 12 rockets on Monday, and a total of 119 had been launched since Saturday.
Netanyahu said a million Israelis - around one-eighth of the population - were in danger. Israel has been deploying its Iron Dome rocket interceptor, air raid sirens and blast shelters, but eight people have been wounded by the rockets.
Six Palestinians, including four civilians, have been killed by Israeli shells fired on Gaza since Saturday, and at least 40 have been wounded.
A Palestinian official who declined to be named said Egypt had been trying to broker a ceasefire and although no formal truce was in place, Hamas understood the need for calm.
Monday's launches were claimed by smaller groups, including a radical Salafi organization that rejects Hamas's authority.
Israel has shown little appetite for a new Gaza war, which could strain relations with the new Islamist-rooted government in neighboring Egypt. The countries made peace in 1979.
But Netanyahu may be reluctant to seem weak ahead of a January 22 election that opinion polls currently predict he will win.
Israel said the latest flare-up started on Thursday with a fierce border clash. On Saturday, a Palestinian missile strike wounded four Israeli troops patrolling the boundary, triggering army shelling of Gaza in which the four civilians died.
In turn, dozens of mortars and rockets were launched at Israel, which carried out a series of air strikes in Gaza.

|How do Pigeons Navigate
From: Andy Soos, ENN
Published April 12, 2012 07:57 AM
How do Pigeons Navigate
Research has been performed with the intention of discovering how pigeons can find their way back from distant places they have never visited before. Most researchers believe that homing ability is based on a map and compass model, with the compass feature allowing birds to orient and the map feature allowing birds to determine their location relative to a goal site (home loft). Some researchers believe that the map mechanism relies on the ability of birds to detect the Earth's magnetic field. The theory that pigeons' famous skill at navigation is down to iron-rich nerve cells in their beaks has been disproved by a new study published in Nature. The study shows that iron-rich cells in the pigeon beak are in fact specialized white blood cells, called macrophages. This finding, which shatters the established dogma, puts the field back on course as the search for magnetic cells continues.
"The mystery of how animals detect magnetic fields has just got more mysterious"� said Dr David Keays who led the study.
Many animals use magnetic orientation based on the Earth's magnetic field to find their way home. This is usually used together with other methods, such as a sun compass, as in bird migration and in the case of turtles. This is also commonly used when no other methods are available, as in the case of lobsters, which live underwater, and mole rats, which home through their underground burrows. The problem is exactly how this is done.
Dr Keays continued: "We had hoped to find magnetic nerve cells, but unexpectedly we found thousands of macrophages, each filled with tiny balls of iron."�
Macrophages are a type of white blood cell that play a vital role in defending against infection and re-cycling iron from red blood cells. They're unlikely to be involved in magnetic sensing as they are not excitable cells and cannot produce electrical signals which could be registered by neurons and therefore influence the pigeon's behavior.
Dr Keays's lab, based at the Institute of Molecular Pathology in Vienna, worked together with Dr Shaw from the University of Western Australia, and Drs Lythgoe and Riegler from the UCL Center for Advanced Biomedical Imaging in London.
"We employed state-of-the-art imaging techniques to visualize and map the location of iron-filled cells in the pigeon beak"� said Dr Mark Lythgoe.
The search for the actual mechanism that allows migratory birds, and many other animals, to respond to the Earth's magnetic field and navigate around their environment remains an intriguing puzzle to be solved.
"We have no idea how big the puzzle is or what the picture looks like, but today we've been able to remove those pieces that just didn't fit,"� said Dr Keays.

What a week! Highlights include Daryl from "The Walking Dead," Jack Welch, Jim Chanos, T. Boone Pickens, Sam Zell, and yachts versus 11-foot kayaks. This is Talking Squawk, the official "Squawk Box" blog, providing tidbits, insights, and some sarcastic reflections on the WEEK THAT WAS and the WEEK TO COME from the notepad of the show's senior executive producer.
Welch way
Jack Welch is our favorite guest of ALL-TIME.
Nobody tells it to us like Jack, and he's been coming on this show for as long as it has been in existence. (BTW, we're in year 18!)
He told it to us "Straight from the Gut" back then, and he's still teaching us his "Winning" ways to this day. (Jack, do I get extra points for creative writing links?)
So you want the unedited, hit-you-over-the-head answer to what he thinks about the government shutdown and how to fix it?
He told "Squawk Box" on Friday that the resident has become too powerful relative to Congress, and the Republicans are the worst marketers of their ideas.
"Talking Squawk" Dead?
OK, follow me here.
There's a show about the show "The Walking Dead" on AMC called "Talking Dead." On "Talking Dead," they sit around and talk about what happened on "The Walking Dead" that week. We find that a little odd. The reason for our skepticism is that CNBC has a blog called "Talking Squawk." This "Talking Squawk" blog strangely enough talks about what happened on the show called "Squawk Box."
"Talking Squawk" … "Talking Dead" … Hey! They must have copied us!!! (SPOILER ALERT: Not true, not true).
If we had figured this out in advance, we would never have invited AMC Networks President Charles Collier or the guy who plays the "Walking Dead" zombie-killing, crossbow-wielding Daryl Dixon (real name, Norman Reedus @wwwbigbaldhead) to talk about this Sunday's big Season 4 premiere! Watch video of their interview.
I can't believe they sneaked that past us! But I will say right here and now, our interview was a hard-hitting piece of journalism full of critiques on how to make the show better. (We love you Daryl!)
Mr. Shorty
He's one of the world's most famous short sellers. Unlike the traditional approach to investing, Jim Chanos makes most of his money (a fortune BTW) by figuring out what's not working. One company he still thinks isn't working very well is Hewlett-Packard, which he's been short since the 2012 CNBC-Institutional Investor Delivering Alpha Conference.
Chanos also gave us his take on the government shutdown and possible ways we can get out of this mess. But he said the signals from the stock market provide hope.
Doomsday scenario
Want a doomsday scenario on this whole government shutdown? Jes Staley of Blue Mountain Capital said its simple: Default on our debt and the impact will be felt around the world like the cloud of dust that killed the dinosaurs after the giant asteroid hit.
Look Ma', no hands
We love @lebeaucarnews (yep, that's our Phil LeBeau's Twitter handle). And we trust his judgment when it comes to cars. But Phil, do you really think no-hands driving is a good idea? Watch the video.
Gellin' with Yellen
It looks like come 2014, we'll be "Gellin' with Yellen." It was the worst-kept secret. We even got those nerdy economists signing that letter and giving us the "JA-NET YELL-EN!" March on Washington cheer! But we don't anticipate that Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) will be "Gellin with Yellen" anytime soon. Read and watch his interview here.
T. Boone math
Word problem time! Four, minus two, minus one equals ... T. Boone Pickens's answer to how he was knocked off the Forbes billionaire list. He had $4 billion. He lost $2 billion on bad bets. He gave $1 billion away to charity and his beloved Oklahoma State University. That leaves him with just about $1 billion.
So how's he going to get the money back? Think Peter Lynch: Invest in what you know. And Pickens knows energy. Here's his take on the Keystone XL pipeline and how it would make OPEC obsolete.
Squawkward moment
Andrew Ross Sorkin to Dominic Chu: "You made it through your first hit on this show. You are no longer a 'Squawk' virgin."
Dominic: "Umm, great ... Thanks."
The new $105 bill?
Would you pay $105 for a new edition of the $100 bill just to have it before anyone else? How about paying $3 for a $2 bill? Or maybe you would pay $2 for a Susan B. Anthony dollar? They say value is in the eye of the beholder. These deep thoughts are courtesy of Joe Kernen, Becky Quick, and Andrew in this week's Executive Edge.
Sam Zell
He's a motorcycle-riding real estate billionaire and he's never been found at a loss for words. Sam Zell spent two hours on the "Squawk Box" set this week. Check out his argument on why Washington is so broken and why the tea party is not crazy.
Politics aside, Zell is very interested in improving the country's education system. See how he ties the failure of urban school systems to a thesis for buying and selling real estate.
And watch this video on why he thinks half of America thinks Obamacare "sucks."
Live Mas Fiery Doritos Locos Tacos Supreme
Yum Brands missed the mark with its latest earnings report. This seems impossible to us on "Squawk Box" because it owns Taco Bell. These are the guys who actually created a multithousand-calorie salad and the "Fiery Doritos Locos Taco." Joe was relieved to find out the problem was with KFC, not with our beloved Taco Bell.
When size does matter
Wealth Reporter Robert Frank (follow him at @RobTFrank) has a cool job. He's gets to play with the toys of the super-rich. We're talking 400- to 500-foot yachts with movie theaters. Check out his report: My mega-yacht's bigger than yours.
We're talking serious toys—not like my Old Town Loon Kayak.
(But who said size matters anyway?!)
Earnings on tap
Apple's shock-proof iPad?
AllThingsD reports that Apple will hold a fall iPad event Oct. 22. Among the highlights, the fifth- generation iPad is expected to feature a thinner, lighter design and an improved camera. It's to run Apple's new 64-bit, A7 chip and will likely sport the fingerprint sensor featured in the iPhone 5s.
Sounds cool—but where's the idiot-proof, shock-proof system that would prevent damage from Dads who run over theirs with a minivan?
(I'd like to meet the moron who did that.)
Tweets of note
@DougKass tweeted on Wednesday: On RealMoneyPro/TheStreet this morning: "My Summer Twitter Vacation is Officially Over."
(Did anybody really think he would be gone long?)
Hair Nation (courtesy of Director @pauldefabo and Technical Director @keith_falcone)
When we get bored in the control room, we place Joe's head in places where it should not be.
For example, over the face of an energy tycoon known for pushing wind power, natural gas and Oklahoma State football.
Must follow them @ ...
OK, last time we tried to win some Twitter love with the AWESOME CNBC reporter team. But apparently I didn't say AWESOME loud enough!
All right, @TheDomino, @lebeaucarnews, @EYoonCNBC, and @Sharon_Epperson are excused from this exercise because they responded appropriately. They followed, they re-tweeted. AWESOME job!
Others fine reporters like @EamonJavers, @KaylaTausche, @seemaCNBC, @JackieDeAngelis, @JBoorstin, @ScottCohnCNBC, and @JaneWells get a pass. They have been loyal followers of mine and the show, and I'm sure they were just very busy and "accidentally" missed their chance to retweet our blog link.
But Mary Thompson!? @MThompsonCNBC, how long have we known each other? Didn't I fight for you to get that new 24-inch Sony flat-screen TV on your desk? That was me!
@BobPisani, the years of sharing, heart to heart, about our rock concert experiences that would prevent us from ever being president one day.
@RobTFrank, OK, I'm not the "super-rich" and I don't have a 500-foot yacht, but geez at least I own a kayak. (See super-rich report above!)
@CourtReagan, you see me in the gym all the time, in my workout clothes, sweating. (Gross, maybe you should get a pass too!)
@JonFortt, is this any way to start your new life here in New Jersey?
@CNBCJosh, aren't you the new guy?
@KateKellyCNBC, I'm hurt. I'm just plain hurt (but I put up a brave, steely front).
@JohnJHarwood, yes, I blew it on the Rick Perry opportunity. I wasn't thinking. But I have a 2-year-old. Anyone can have a brain freeze.
(I don't know if you all fully appreciate the opportunity here. I mean think about it, tens of dozens of people read this blog every week! OK, maybe some of those dozens are my Mom re-reading it, but still!)
Overheard on the set
Anchor 1: "I got in early so I could appear on 'Way Too Early with Brian Shactman.' Threw off my whole shower routine."
Anchor 2: "Meaning you didn't shower?"
Word Jumble
Joe and Becky love to play the word jumble in the paper—seven years running, and Becky has the weekly handwritten scores to prove it! This week, Becky is on a roll with three wins to Joe's one.
