The Best PPC Management Services: Get More Traffic and Increase ROI
You need website traffic and you need it now! Pay per click advertising is the quickest and easiest way to get visitors and generate leads. How do you do it? Authority Solutions™, America's Top SEO experts, will do the job for you!
PPC advertising is one of the most effective SEO strategies in driving more traffic to your business website. However, this SEO campaign is very risky. Without proper and ongoing PPC Management, you can spend a fortune and draw more traffic but eventually gain nothing at the end of the day.
If you are someone who has limited knowledge about PPC marketing and you want to know more about it or someone who knows a great deal about it and wants to use PPC to market your business, you have come to the right place. Authority Solutions™ is a team of SEO experts who can help you use PPC advertising, as well as provide PPC Campaign Management.
What is Pay Per Click and Why Is It Essential in your SEO Campaign?
PPC or Pay Per Click is a model of internet marketing where advertisers pay a fee every time their ads are clicked. Basically, it is a way of buying visits to your website instead of trying to attract visitors organically.
Search engine advertising is the most popular form of PPC. It allows advertisers to bid for ad placement in a search engine's sponsored links when an internet user searches for a keyword that is related to their business offering.
PPC is very simple. Search engines like Bing and Google allow businesses and individuals to buy listings in their search results. These listings are found alongside and above the non-paid organic search results. The search engine gets paid every time a web user clicks on the sponsored listing.
These ad spots are sold in an auction. You bid the maximum amount you are willing to pay for a click on your ad. If you are the highest bidder, you have a chance to rank No. 1 in these paid or sponsored results.
When someone clicks on your PPC listing, they will be redirected to the page you have selected on your website. The search engine will charge you the amount you bid. For example, you bid $2 maximum on the keyword "Social SEO" and that is the highest bid in the auction, you will appear on the first line. If 100 people click your PPC listing, then the search engine will charge you $200.
PPC advertising generates traffic quickly. It is easy and simple. Spend enough, get top placement, and potential customers will see your offer first. If users are searching for key phrases on which you bid and you have a well-written ad, you get clicks the moment the ad is activated.
PPC advertising is fast. With systems like Google Adwords, you can generate targeted traffic in just a few minutes from opening an account.
It is also nimble. Most organic search engine marketing and other forms of advertising can lag for several weeks or months behind changing behavior of the audience. With PPC campaigns, you can adjust in a matter of hours or days. This will give you an edge to adjust to market conditions and changing customer interests.
It is a great way to get visitors. However, if you have limited knowledge of the terminologies of PPC, you will need only the best PPC Management Services.
What is Pay Per Click Management?
PPC Management is the process of supervising and managing a company's PPC ad spending. It strategizes and buys ads while minimizing the overall spending. You can actually do this yourself. But since it is very risky and if you have limited knowledge about PPC, you can hire a specialist company to manage PPC buys on your behalf.

The ReverseGUARD is an automotive safety product designed to reduce accidents while backing by providing information to the driver when their vehicle is in reverse.

The ReverseGUARD Half-Frame system can accommodate most state-specific laws that require that a license plate frame not obscure any portions of the license plate.

Trumping Trump!
OK, kids. Settle down. I'm speaking up against DONALD TRUMP using my song as his campaign song. Hope I'm not his next target. Please bear in mind only the publisher can prevent him from using "You're The Best". Ain't no use telling me about Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen and Heart. They were all both artist, songwriter and publisher and therefore had the legal right to prevent usage. I's jes the lowly songwriter and have no power here. Other than my mouth!

One of the most interesting sights in the Delta are the floating markets and associated river life. Cai Rang Floating Market is open all day but it is busiest from sunrise to about 9am. The main items sold there are farm products and specialties of Cai Rang Town, Chau Thanh District and neighboring areas. Every boat has a long upright pole at its bow on which samples of the goods for sale are hung.
During the early morning market hours, larger sized boats anchor and create lanes that smaller boats weave in and out of. The waterway becomes a maze of hundreds of boats packed with mango, bananas, papaya, pineapple, and even smuggled goods like cigarettes. Sellers do not have to cry out about their goods because their goods can be seen in a distance and their cries would not be heard in the vastness of the river and the noise of boat engines. Small boats that sell beer, wine and soft drinks go among the other boats to serve market-goers and visitors. Sellers tie their goods to a tall pole so that buyers can see from a distance what they are selling.
Each boat is loaded with plenty of seasonal goods. Activities at the market are also an occasion for tourists to study the cultural aspects of southerners. You can see the market in the distance, it does not look like much, just a mass of boats. The boats all display their wares on a mast so you can see what they have available.
To visit Cai Rang Floating Market, visitors can join a tour of the Mekong Delta. On the way to Can Tho, visitors can stop to visit My Tho and take a boat trip to visit orchards, bee farms and coconut candy establishments in Ben Tre.
Many have agreed that visiting floating markets is among the can-not-miss experience in Southern Vietnam. There are a lot of travel agencies that offer a wide range of tours to Mekong delta with various tour duration and floating markets are included in most of them. Those without lots of time in their schedules are recommended to chose one Mekong delta day tour with floating market in its itinerary that best fit their time-frame.
Have you been to the Cai Rang Floating Market? If not yet, let's take a 30 minute boat ride to the market. You will be actually awake and enjoying it! You wind find it very peaceful floating down the river in the early morning. Then, tell us why you think this market is a great place!

Summerton, SC - Formerly of Wallkill, NY
Peter was called home to be with our Lord and Savior on October 2, 2013. Peter William Tice, 67, passed away at his home, surrounded by his loved ones and friends, after a courageous battle with lung cancer. He was born on April 15, 1946 to the late William and Roberta Martin Tice.
Peter was an avid bowler who averaged in the 200's. His accomplishments included six 300 games as well as an 800 series. Peter bowled most of his life in Middletown Lanes, Middletown, NY, and was inducted into the Bowler's Hall of Fame in 1999. Peter loved teaching young athletes, assisting the Junior Youth Bowling League and coaching his children's softball and baseball teams. All three of his children made their leagues All Star teams, and played in traveling leagues as well. It was one of Peter's greatest enjoyments in life.
Peter worked in the home improvement business for many years, before retiring to South Carolina in 2011, where he enjoyed his retirement by fishing, golfing and sharing the company of some amazing friends.
Peter leaves behind his wife of 46 years, Roberta Powers Tice, of Summerton, SC; two daughters: Bonnie Tice of Summerton, SC and Kelly Beverson and her fiance, Richie Remaley of Wallkill, NY, and his son, Stephen Tice and his fiancee, Bethany Ganley of Wallkill, NY. He also leaves his brother, Bruce Tice and his wife, Marty of Middletown, NY. He was predeceased by his sister, Roberta Brundage. Peter had seven grandchildren: Jessica Culligan, Jamie Beverson, Victoria Reid, Zachery Reid, Kaitlin Reid, Marley Tice and Christopher Ganley, as well as two great-grandchildren: Aiden Marie Thurston and Connor Rosado. He is also survived by many loving nieces, nephews, aunts and uncles.
There will be no visitation, as Peter was so honored to be able to donate his body and ashes for scientific study. In lieu of flowers, one can donate to the Embrace Hospice of Florence, SC.

B.B. French – Blogger Extraordinaire
Long before the advent of Twitter, Facebook and blogs – there were journals. 150 years ago this month saw one of the most transformative periods in the construction of the United States Capitol along with the historic address by Abraham Lincoln at Gettysburg. One individual captured these events both as a witness, and as participant, capturing first-hand details of moments that shaped history.
Benjamin Brown (B.B.) French served as Commissioner of Public Buildings in 1863. In this role, he was responsible for oversight of all federal buildings in Washington, D.C., including the U.S. Capitol.
150 years ago today, on Friday, November 6, 1863, French witnessed the installation of the iron columns of "lanthorn" [tholos] at the top of the Capitol Dome, and the placement of the Columbus Doors in the Capitol. He captured his thoughts of these events in his journal:
"We have not had so disagreeable a day by the way of wind and dust for months, as this is. I was down in the city for two or three hours this forenoon and came near being suffocated. Pa Avenue was one cloud of dust from end to end, and it was nearly as much as one's life was worth to pass up or down 7th St. the wind being N.W. seemed to whirl all through that street in every direction.
For the week past the workmen have putting up the bronze doors made by Randolph Rogers, between the old and new Halls of the Ho. Reps. in the Capitol. The doors are now in place and are magnificent. They embody in the semicircle over the transom, and in the panels, the history of Columbus. They are a study for a month, and after the brick work is filled in & the entire job finished, I intend to study them at my leisure.
The first iron column of the lanthorn of the Dome was put in its place this morning. The others will follow, and the place for "Freedom" to stand upon will soon be ready. The outside of the Dome will now be completed in a few weeks. It will take at least a year to finish the inner Dome, which is to be very highly ornamented.
When the Capitol is finished, if ever such an event occurs, it will be in every respect, a noble building, and will contain hundreds of things worth the study of the connoisseur in the Fine Arts – Mechanics – etc…."1
These remarkable insights provide us further inspiration as the Architect of the Capitol prepares to restore the Capitol Dome and celebrate the sesquicentennial of the Statue of Freedom's placement atop the Dome on December 2.

Hanging a real light fixture can be hard. But snapping a metal bird to a lightbulb? Easy.
The $US50 Bird Pendant Light by Sweden-based artist Hung Ming Chen is a simple brass fixture that squeezes onto a bare bulb. And while we're guessing it might get a little hot, there's certainly no easier way to half-assedly decorate your basement. Now just to gather the motivation to actually replace that burned out lightbulb first. [UrbanOutfitters via Nerd Approved]

The terrorist attack, or staged terrorist attack, in Boston, like the 9/11 attack before it, will result in the continued destruction of our constitutionally guaranteed liberty. The police state, led by the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI, are already spearheading the effort.
On April 16, the day after the attack in Boston, the DHS and FBI created a "Joint Intelligence Bulletin" instructing law enforcement and private sector safety officials on how they should identify and mitigate potential terrorist threats.
After stating that behavior outlined in the bulletin may "constitute the exercise of rights guaranteed by the US Constitution," the DHS and FBI say "possible indicators" of terrorist activity include "[d]iscret use of cameras or video recorders, sketching, or note taking consistent with pre-operational surveillance." Photography should be considered part of a "totality of behavioral indicators and other relevant circumstances" before "any law enforcement response or action," according to the bulletin.
In addition, the "suspicious purchases" of items such as "hydrogen peroxide, acetone, gasoline, propane, or fertilizer" should be considered suspect by law enforcement, Fire-EMS, private security personnel, and emergency managers and "forwarded to the appropriate fusion center and FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force for further action."
As documented by Infowars.com and others, fusion centers serve primarily to surveil political groups and individuals considered threatening to the establishment. For instance, in 2009, we examined a Missouri fusion center report describing supporters of presidential candidates Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, and Bob Barr as "militia" influenced terrorists.
In March, the director of the Arkansas State Fusion Center, Richard Davis, said the fusion center in Little Rock does not monitor the activity of al-Qaeda, but rather "domestic terrorism and certain groups that are anti-government."
The FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) includes over 600 state, local and federal agencies, the U.S. military and the CIA. Following a Freedom of Information Act request filed by the American Civil Liberties Union, a follow-up report by the Inspector General revealed that the JTTF and the FBI conduct widespread surveillance of political groups exercising their right to free speech and freedom of assembly under the Fist Amendment. The report also proved the FBI lied to hide its improper activities from Congress and the American public.
The Boston bombing will allow the FBI's latest iteration of COINTELPRO – a surveillance and agent provocateur program that has operated uninterrupted for more than 40 years – to expand and flourish. The Department of Homeland Security and the FBI are not primarily concerned with al-Qaeda or even homegrown supposed jihadi terrorism, but political activity that threatens the establishment and the global elite's political status quo. The Tsarnaev brothers, who are obvious patsies, are being exploited in order to push police state propaganda.
In the weeks and months ahead, we should expect more FBI and DHS bulletins calling into question activity previously considered normal and non-threatening. The point is to create an atmosphere of paranoia and suspicion on the part of law enforcement and emergency response personnel. The government will continue to exploit this manufactured fear and paranoia and direct a response against it in the direction of its political enemies.

We've all encountered some pretty hilarious gamers on Xbox Live, whether they're intentionally comedic or not. The diverse age range means that many of these encounters involve some kid battling with his mom or dad to stay online for just a little bit longer.
Two guys camp out in an airplane in Call of Duty, and the star of our video apparently has the wherewithal to take them out, so he's obviously frustrated at his mother's incessant shouting. She really, really wants him at the dinner table (or some other request that I can't make out through her shrill shouting). Listen as her son absolutely loses it in a wild anxiety attack.

The Delaware Senate defeated a proposed constitutional amendment March 26 that would have defined marriage in the state as between one man and one woman. Hundreds of people gathered on the east front of Legislative Hall to show their support for the amendment, introduced by Sen. Robert L. Venables Sr., D-Laurel.
The Delaware Senate defeated a proposed constitutional amendment Thursday that would have defined marriage in the state as between one man and one woman.Hundreds of people gathered on the east front of Legislative Hall to show their support for the amendment, introduced by Sen. Robert L. Venables Sr., D-Laurel.
The demonstrators sang hymns and hoisted banners urging senators to vote yes on SB 27, but it was not enough to persuade the required two-thirds majority needed to pass a constitutional amendment.
In debate on the senate floor, Venables argued that the amendment was necessary to prevent judges from potentially overturning the state's 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, which states that Delaware recognizes only marriages between one man and one woman. "Maybe not the judges we have now, but I don't know what's going to happen in the future," he said.
Venebles also said he and his supporters worry about what might happen if Delaware begins recognizing same-sex marriages down the road, either by statute or a court's decision.
"If we allow gay marriage, then why not for polygamists? Or, as you could certainly stretch it to say, why not pedophiles," he said.
Drew Fennell, executive director of ACLU Delaware, testified in opposition to the bill and said she finds the comparison of same-sex couples to criminals offensive, and that raising the issue to a constitutional level is tantamount to condemnation.
"The only reason to elevate this is to send a message of distaste," she said.
Other senators argued that the current law is sufficient, and that a constitutional amendment is not necessary.
"My view of the constitution is that it is a document that should be a positive affirmation of the rights of people, as opposed to a document that restricts or denies the rights of the people," said Sen. Brian J. Bushweller, D-Dover North.
In an interview earlier in the day, Gov. Jack Markell said he did not support SB 27.
"I don't think it's necessary," he said. "We ought to be more focused on bringing people together rather than keeping them apart."
After the amendment was defeated with a vote of nine yeas and 11 nays, supporters said they were not surprised.
"This was expected, it allows us to see where people are," said Nicole Theis, executive director of the Delaware Family Policy Council. "[Supporters] understand that this is the beginning, they wanted people to go on the record."
Venebles also said he expected the measure to fail, and that, at least for him, the matter is closed.
"We've got an awful lot of liberal people in there, the makeup is a lot different than when I came up here," said Venebles, who began his legislative career in 1988. "It's doubtful that I'll do anything next year because that would go into another general assembly. That's three or four more years away and I probably won't be here then. So the issue is probably going to be dead."
In order to pass, a constitutional amendment requires a two-thirds vote of both legislative houses in two successive general assemblies.

text: Mammoth sports stadiums and venues are always a sight to behold when you're sitting in them, but what if you're looking at them from space? That's a whole new perspective that we rarely see, but our friends at NASA and GeoEye have eyes in the sky that allow for us to gain a new appreciation for these architectural and natural landscapes that are more just hulking steel structures or sand traps by the sea. Indeed, looking at these monuments of sport from above makes you think differently when you're visiting down below. Here are 12 notable venues that stretch across all periods of history to show us that times may change but our societal love of sports is endless. Above: The Colosseum, Rome The emperor Vespasian not only brought stability and order to a dysfunctional Roman Empire during his 10-year reign, but he also commissioned what would become the lasting inspiration for so many sports stadiums built milleniums afterwards. The Colosseum took eight years to build and was finished by his son Titus, but this behemoth was unlike any structure of its kind. (Still, it was nowhere as big as the Circus Maximus, which held more than 150,000 spectators and more closely resembled modern-day horse racing venues than circular sports stadiums.) Now a popular Roman tourist attraction, the Colosseum held 55,000 fans who came to see gladiators, public executions and theatrical performances. Image: GeoEye (high-res version)Augusta National Golf Course, Augusta, Georgia So scenic and yet so controversial, Augusta National has long been home to the prestigious Masters golf tournament as well as a stubborn refusal to admit women as full members. And yet, the 7,435-yard, par-72 course remains one of the jewels of the PGA Tour season. Odd then that, despite its enduring prestige, what is the arguably the most famous golf course in the world only just got ported to videogamedom with the release of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 this past spring. Now if you want to try your hand steering your iron shots through Augusta's tight turns, all you have to do is fire up your gaming console of choice. Image: GeoEye (high-res version)Invesco Field at Mile High, Denver In the fall of 2001, Denver's Invesco Field officially joined the mile-high club, replacing Mile High Stadium, whose exterior had to be slightly carved away to even make room for this $365 behemoth. (Although, financial firm Invesco's $120 million naming rights deal helped offset some of that cost.) Invesco Field is also home to the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame, and has hosted U2, the AFC Championship Game and the 2008 Democratic National Convention. Image: GeoEye (high-res version)The Bird's Nest, Beijing Beijing's National Stadium, more commonly regarded as "the Bird's Nest" for obvious aesthetic reasons, was the public face of the 2008 Summer Olympics, playing host to the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as the track and field events and the men's and women's gold medal soccer matches. With a reported cost of more than $400 million, the stadium -- like many venues in their post-Olympic lives -- has hosted nothing resembling the pomp of those 16 days in the summer of '08. Low-level soccer matches, and even lower attendance, plague this stadium, although the 2015 World Championships in Athletics is slated to be held there in four years' time. Image: Digital Globe (high-res version)Busch Stadium, St. Louis, Missouri The center of St. Louis sports since it opened in 1966, Busch Stadium -- which closed in 2005-- sat just under 50,000 fans, saw six World Series, as well as the 1966 All-Star Game, and was known for its signature 96 white arches which encircled the upper rim of the stadium. The above photo, taken in September 2004, also shows the earliest stages of construction on the new Busch Stadium, which opened in April 2006. Even better, the 46,000-seat replacement offers a much nicer view into the ballpark when you're looking out the top floor of the Gateway Arch. Image: Digital Globe (high-res version)Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles Walter O'Malley's dream of bringing baseball to the west finally materialized in 1958, when he moved the Brooklyn Dodgers to Los Angeles, but it would be another four years before the team could play in Dodger Stadium, which has hosted more than 130 million fans over 50 seasons of baseball. (The team played home games at the LA Memorial Coliseum while Dodger Stadium was under construction.) Although, with a team that's currently more than 14 games out of first place and an ownership situation that is in complete financial shambles, Dodgers fans headed to Chavez Ravine can only hope for better days ahead. Image: GeoEye (high-res version)FedEx Field, Landover, Maryland Sure, the Washington Redskins have seen better days. They've only won 10 games in a season once in the past decade, and billionaire Dan Snyder is perhaps the most hated owner in all of football. (He still has a way to go before reaching Donald Sterling levels.) However, the Redskins are still the fourth most-valuable sports franchise in the world, according to Forbes, owed in large part to FedEx Field, which turns 14 years old this fall. Built for $250 million, the stadium also hosts Major League Soccer, concerts and international soccer friendlies. Image: GeoEye (high-res version)Fenway Park, Boston Surrounded by Lansdowne Street, Kenmore Square and the campus of Boston University, the pride of Boston's Back Bay neighborhood has always been one of Major League Baseball quirkiest stadiums since opening in 1912. The 37-foot-high wall in left field, known lovingly as the Green Monster, stands as a perpetual tease to right-handed pull hitters and poor, unfortunate left fielders. Although, it's still not half as weird as the long-gone Huntington Avenue Grounds, where the Red Sox played from 1901 to 1911. With a capacity of 11,500, that field (located near, what is today, Northeastern University), featured a center field wall that measured 635 feet from home plate. The right field wall? A mere 320 feet away. Image: Digital Globe (high-res version)Soccer City Stadium, Johannesburg, South Africa Last summer's World Cup in South Africa was historic not just for Spain's finals victory over the Netherlands, marking the first time a team had lost its opening match and gone on to win the whole shebang. It was also the first time either the World Cup or the Olympics, the largest sporting events on the planet, was held in Africa. Although, the tournament itself was marred by controversial refereeing, which may eventually lead to the implementation of goal-line technology, the spectacle of nearly 95,000 fans cheering on soccer's elite players was the ultimate takeaway from this battle between futbol's finest. Image: GeoEye (high-res version)Arrowhead Stadium & Kauffman Stadium, Kansas City, Missouri Kauffman Stadium (right), home to the Kansas City Royals, has long been regarded as one of the hidden gems of Major League Baseball. Not flashy or retro cool, Kauffman has played host to Royals baseball for 39 seasons and despite being the sixth-oldest structure in the league, raves for the stadium continuously flow in from fans. Compare that to its neighbor to the immediate west, Arrowhead Stadium, which is famous for its extreme loudness -- as high as 116 decibels -- and ever-loyal fan base; the team sold out 155 consecutive home games from 1991 to 2009). Image: GeoEye (high-res version)Pebble Beach Golf Links, Monterey, California If Augusta National is the jewel of the East Coast golf scene, then Pebble Beach in northern California is tops west of the Rockies. Located on picturesque Monterey Bay, Pebble Beach has hosted the US Open five times since 1972 and most recently in 2010. Just watch out for the infamous par-3 17th hole. It's that little bit of land that juts into the water, with a sand trap that resembles an octopus. Image: GeoEye (high-res version)University of Phoenix Stadium, Glendale, Arizona Let's be clear: Domed stadiums should always be the exception, not the rule, concerning sports venues. However, when you're an NFL team in an areas that boasts an average temperature of 99 degrees on opening day, a domed building is an absolute necessity. So it is with the unfortunately named University of Phoenix Stadium, which typically hosts the Arizona Cardinals. Just under five years old, this $455 million structure has already Wrestlemania, the BCS National Championship Game and Super Bowl XLII, which saw the New York Giants knock off the undefeated New England Patriots in one of the greatest upsets in NFL history.

Consumer Alert
Consumer Tips for the Holidays
The holiday season is the busiest time of year for most shoppers and retail stores, and it is an important time to be a smart shopper. It's also the time of year when many people contribute to charities in the spirit of holiday giving. The Consumer Protection Unit of the Alaska Attorney General's Office offers the following tips for the holiday season:
Charitable Donations: Know where and how the money you donate will be used. Remember that charities often use paid fundraisers to raise money, so it is important to know how much of your donation will actually go to the charity. In Alaska, paid fundraisers (paid solicitors) who solicit over the phone must tell you the following before they ask for a donation: their real names, the name and address of the charity they are soliciting for, the name of the fundraising business they are working for, how and where the contributions will be used, and that a copy of the charity's financial statement and its contract with the paid solicitor are available upon request. To see if a charity is registered in Alaska, go to the Consumer Protection Unit Charities page or to find out more about a particular charity go to guidestar.org.
Buying Online: Be sure to shop with reputable companies and use only secure web sites. Be aware of all details on shipping and handling fees and return/exchange policies. Review the Federal Trade Commission's new online shopping webpage for more information.
Mail Order Purchases: If you order gifts by mail or telephone or over the Internet, you have certain protections. Federal law requires the seller to ship your purchase within 30 days, unless a later date is specified in the advertisement. If there is a delay, the seller must notify you, give you a chance to cancel your order, and send a full refund if you decide to cancel. The safest way to pay for mail order purchases is by credit card.
Gift Certificates: Check the fine print before buying a store's or mall's gift certificate. Look to see if there are any fees associated with using the card and if the card has an expiration date.
Sale Prices: Be sure that a sale is really a sale. Just because it's "on sale" does not mean it's a good deal. Retailers sometimes inflate the "original price" of an item and then reduce the price to make it look like a bargain. Check to see if the item has a manufacturer's suggested retail price ("MSRP") that is established by the manufacturer, not the retailer. Shop around to see what other stores are selling the product for, or do a search on the internet to see what on-line retailers are charging (and don't forget to factor in shipping costs to Alaska). Shopping on line isn't always the best option, but it can help you compare prices.
If you believe that you have been the victim of unfair business practice, we encourage you to file a consumer complaint with the Alaska Attorney General's Office.
You can call (907) 269-5200 or hit your browser's back button and click on "File a Consumer Complaint" to download the complaint form.

Germany is an excellent place to get started in the global economy and gain experience. Interning abroad is highly looked upon across all job markets, and there's no better place than Germany to start.
Germany boasts the third most Nobel Laureates, ranging from Albert Einstein for Physics to Herman Hesse for Literature. Also among Germany's famous are some of the greatest thinkers and philosophers like Immanuel Kant, Karl Marx, are Friedrich Nietzsche. German companies are no less impressive: Adidas, BMW, Porsche, Siemens, Volkswagen, and Bayer to name a few.
With all these big names and accomplishments coming out of Germany, isn't it time you experienced the country yourself with an internship?
Business: With 34 Global Fortune 500 companies that call Germany home, the opportunities for a business-minded individual in Germany are endless. Interns could work with multinational pu companies headquartered in Germany, smaller private companies, and even local, regional businesses. Different types of companies will have different needs, but interns can expect to develop an international perspective on business after completion.
Health and Social Sciences: Internships are available for those interested in psychology in psychiatry and social services institutions, hospitals, and ics throughout Germany. Interns could work with battered women, fams, children and adolescents in therapy, the elderly, substance abusers, and refugees. The possibies are abundant for interns to make contributions to the German community.
Law: Delving into the German legal system is a unique experience, full of intricacies and intrigue. Interns could be placed in major corporate law firms, learning about taxation, mergers, acquisitions, antitrust and EU laws, labor laws, environmental laws, banking, and media. Sounde a lot? It's worth it.
Marketing: Germany has a population of over 80 min people, and with so many people come so many different marketing tactics and opportunities. Interns can expect to conduct market research, work with pu relations and communications, and develop competitive analyses. Depending on personal preference, skill sets and specific company needs, marketing interns in Germany could also work with social media and web design.
Pics: Germany has been caught in the eye of pics these days due to its influence in the European Union. Pical internships in Germany are a great way to experience the country's unique pical tendencies and structure. Placements can be found in mayor's offices, municipal offices, lobby groups, as well as the Bundestag, the Federal Pament of Germany.
When and Where to Look for an Internship:
As Germany's capital city, Berlin is home to many major companies and will definitely be an important place for anyone looking to intern in Germany. However, other smaller cities such as Cologne and Bonn also present great opportunities. Cologne has a large metropolitan and industrial area. Bonn is home to beautiful art and architecture for those interested in museum internships. Internships are available throughout the year, depending on your placement program.
Cost of Living in Germany:
According to Numbeo, an average one-bedroom apartment in the city center will cost about 500 € per month, while a similar apartment will cost about 370 € per month outside the city. Similar patterns occur with larger sized apartments. Some placement programs offer their own housing, check with your provider regarding living arrangements.
Work Culture in Germany:
- Etiquette: Germans often work a much shorter week, usually about 35 hours. However, there is a strong culture of high productivity - there is very little time spent socializing or chatting. Management culture is often very hierarchical. Meetings run on strict agendas and schedules; lateness is generally not tolerated in the German business environment. There is also an emphasis on group efforts and teamwork; attempts to advance individually may be looked down on. Dressing for business situations is often quite conservative and muted; accessories should be kept to a mild minimum.
- Language: Because Germans learn English in school and many Germans speak English quite well, it is generally the language of choice for business. However, this may also depend on the company you work at and your program's requirements. It is always useful to have a simple understanding of the language and learn a few basic phrases.
- Networking: There are many professional networking organizations in Germany that may fit your needs, such as Wirtschaftsjunioren, Marketing Club and Business and Professional Women Germany e.V. More information about networking in Germany can be found at Managementwissen Online.
Work and Labor Laws in Germany
Currently, there are no legal regulations for internships in Germany. There are talks within the German government to outline specifics for internships, but nothing has substantiated as of now.

Norway and Indonesia are about to make history. A 1 billion USD forest protection deal between these two countries could help set Indonesia on a low-carbon development pathway and become a positive model for the rest of the world. It could clearly demonstrate that lowering carbon emissions to address climate change does not mean sacrificing economic growth and prosperity. What's more, this prosperous low-carbon development does not need to come at the expense of Indonesia's natural forests and peatlands.
But this deal is at risk. Today we released a report - 'Protection Money' - which outlines how the deal is in danger of being undermined, unless action is taken to protect it from notorious industrial forest destroyers in the palm oil, paper and pulp sectors. There is a potential that international money intended for the protection of Indonesia's forests and peatlands could end up being used to support their destruction.
The 1 billion USD pledged by Norway is meant to support the Indonesian President's commitment to lead global efforts in shifting to a low-carbon development model and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The deal includes a two-year moratorium on the allocation of carbon-rich peatlands and natural forests for industrial expansion, and could also include a review of the lands already held by various industries.
These industries, including palm oil, pulp and paper, have ambitious expansion plans. If these plans go ahead in their current form it could lead to the loss of 40% of Indonesia's remaining natural forest – an area around the size of Norway and Denmark combined - as well as the loss of half of all remaining forested orang-utan habitat in Kalimantan. Not to mention the additional GHG emissions that would result from continued destruction of carbon-rich peatlands and forest.
Tragically, some of this destruction could actually go forward in the name of climate and forest protection if the negative influence of industry isn't curbed. Industry who have interests in supporting business-as-usual are looking to rebrand industrial activities that drive deforestation as 'rehabilitation of degraded' lands. This 'degraded' land is often actually natural, carbon-rich forest or peatland merely given that label, as there is no clear definition of 'degraded'.
Calling this 'rehabilitation' implies that replacing natural forests with plantations is good for the climate, for biodiversity, and for local communities and low-carbon development. In reality this 'rehabilitation' means loss of natural forests, loss of the economic and social value that those forests have for local communities, and results in habitat destruction and further GHG emissions.
This continued destruction goes against the low-carbon development model that Indonesia's President aims to champion - with the support of forest protection deals like the one with Norway – and it is also completely unnecessary.
The key lies in improving the productivity of the land already held by industry. With improved productivity - according to Government figures - no additional land would be needed to meet production targets in the pulp, paper and palm oil sectors. They should be able to meet their economic targets, which include doubling palm oil production and a four-fold increase in pulp production, without further forest destruction. It means making better of use of the land already held by industry, rather than allowing continual expansion into ever more forested areas.
How can we ensure that the palm oil, paper and pulp industries make better use of the land already allocated to them in Indonesia? A strong moratorium on deforestation and peatland clearance would push industry to dramatically increase productivity within existing plantation areas – because it would remove the option of further expansion into forests - and therefore remove the option for further forest and peatland destruction.
The announcement of the Indonesia-Norway forest deal is due to be made during international climate negotiations beginning in Cancun, Mexico next week. It has the potential to usher in an historic era of low-carbon development in Indonesia – and in a world facing runaway climate change this has global implications. A strong moratorium is the best way to ensure that this fund does not become 'protection money' for forest destroying industry, and remains 'protection money' for Indonesia's bio-diverse and carbon-rich peatlands and forests.
Greenpeace is calling for immediate protection of all peatlands and a temporary halt on all further natural forest clearance, not only in new areas, but also in areas already held by industry.

On the press conference and report launch in Indonesia - November 23, 2010:
Pak Heru, an Indonesian Minister from Indonesia's REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) Task Force went as far as rescheduling a flight to Oslo to attend the press conference, and following a presentation from Greenpeace Southeast Asia Forests Campaigner Bustar Maitar he stood to give his opinion of the report. Heru gave some general updates on the REDD+ task force and its challenges before voicing his appreciation of Greenpeace's work, and stating that he shares the same views. He applauded the 'Protection Money' report and Greenpeace's efforts to expose some of the inconsistencies in government policy, and added that Greenpeace's position and commitment to save Indonesian forests is in line with Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's vision. As reported by AFP this morning, Greenpeace is very supportive of the deal between Indonesia and Norway, provided the issues raised in the report are addressed. At the press conference Heru also remarked that although a lot of work is required to save Indonesian forests, we need to be optimistic, ending his remarks with the latin "Si vis pacem, para bellum", meaning: "If you wish for peace, prepare for war." Peace through strength, and forest protection through formidable policy, financial support and good governance.
Many people around the world are suffering from the "Wrath of Nature", we should help conserving nature instead of putting at risk. Global Warmin...
Many people around the world are suffering from the "Wrath of Nature", we should help conserving nature instead of putting at risk. Global Warming is already making it's way by frequent tropical storms, landslides and the exaggerated greenhouse effect. We must make our move now and conserve nature. How I wish, years from now there are still native wildflowers, wild life and exotic beauty of nature. I wish the next generation will still experience the beauty of nature. And as people of today it's our duty to ensure that the next generation will still witness it.

GloriaMark Hayes - Lorenz Corporation
Click to review
Mark Hayes' unique and distinctive blending of contemporary rhythms and harmonies with more traditional elements is a hallmark of his style, and one of the many qualities that has endeared his choral music to singers of all levels and genres. With this three-movement Gloria for SATB divisi choir, solo quartet, and orchestra, Hayes has made yet another important contribution to the serious concert repertoire. The chamber orchestra accompaniment is an exceptional complement to the choral writing while also allowing for a more accessible performance option, and the full orchestral version makes a first-rate concert showpiece worthy of all fine choirs and orchestras. Instrumentation: Fl./Picc., Ob./Eng. Hn., Cl., Bsn., Hn., Tpt., Perc., Harp., Pno. (for rehearsal only), Vln. 1 & 2, Vla., Cello, Bass

With a growing roster of blogs as a crucial element of its customer and developer relations, Adobe outsourced its blog operation to Blog Consulting. In 2009 we upgraded all 330 of Adobe's blogs to the latest version of Movable Type, and moved them to our high availability cluster.
In 2010 we helped Adobe migrate total of 1,200 blogs from Movable Type to WordPress. The project was successfully completed within 2 months.
National Geographic wanted to launch a new online community for the National Geographic Channel, and it approached Blog Consulting to assist with the project.
Working under a tight schedule, we helped launch the project on time and on budget, and the client attributed the project's success in large part to its interactions with our team.
Harvard Business Publishing wanted to find a one stop shop for all of its blog-related needs.
Blog Consulting migrated its blogs to one of our high availability clusters, upgraded its Movable Type installation to the latest version and continues to provide blog support on a daily basis.
O'Reilly Media is a popular destination for how-to content. With over 2 million visitors and 6 million page views a month, O'Reilly needed a reliable partner to host and support its WordPress platform.
Blog Consulting designed a number of custom features for O'Reilly's readers, optimized its blog templates and converted them to work with the latest version of WordPress. We now host all of O'Reilly's blogs, and continue to support them.
SAP – the world's leading provider of business software solutions wanted to outsource its blog operation to Blog Consulting. Our team migrated their blog setup from an older version of WordPress MU to WordPress 3.0 Multisite.
During the migrating process we created a blog theme that matched SAP's overall marketing and branding. SAP outsources all their blog support requests to our consultants, available 24 hours a day.
Dolby Laboratories was looking to expand their online presence and reach out to their consumers in a broader scale. They approached Blog Consulting to help them start their first blog.
Taking on this task, we needed to match the blog design to Dolby's overall branding. They now have a fully functioning blog that captures the look and feel that is Dolby. Blog Consulting also hosts and supports the Dolby blog 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Looking to offer more to their readers, Fanhattan approached Blog Consulting for help building an interactive WordPress based TV Guide. With our help, their users are now able to add TV shows to their wish lists and sync them to their iOS apps through Facebook.
A step futher, their site now has an infinitive scrolling feature to displaying various TV shows which can be sorted by TV network.
But don't just take our word for it, read what our clients have to say.

We're passionate about helping bloggers find their true voice.
Blogs are a common fixture of the Internet today — nearly everyone reads blogs, and more people write them every day. But when we started in 2002, blogs were still a new phenomenon. BlogConsulting.com was founded in 2002 by Pavel Ushakov, an entrepreneur in the blog industry whose accomplishments already have been recognized by such publications as The New York Times, Entrepreneur, and the widely-read book, Blogging for Dummies.
In the last 16 years, we've learned a lot about blogs and the people who write them. We've watched the blog technology develop, so we know the tools and how to get the most out of blogs. We've seen trends come and go, so we know where blogging has been, and we're paying attention to the trendsetters of today (and tomorrow). And we've met quite a few bloggers, and helped them create their own corner of the blogosphere. Now we'd like to meet you, and find out how we can make your blog better.

The Qashqai also got a maximum five-star crash test rating from Euro NCAP. An engine immobiliser helps protect against thieves.
Engine Range
The new 2015 Nissan Qashqai is available in a range of new turbo charged petrol engines which give
improved fuel economy and lower CO2 emissions compared to their predecessors. The entry-level 1.2 DIG-T petrol engine emits 129g/km of CO2, and will be joined in autumn 2014 by the 1.6 DIG-T, which develops 148bhp whilst emitting just 132g/km CO2 emissions.
The latest 1.5 dCi Diesel unit is the entry-level diesel engine. CO2 emissions for this model have dropped to 99g/km and with EU Combined fuel economy of 74.3mpg which in real world terms should provide at least 50 mpg.
The Nissan Qashqai is well suited to family life, thanks to the Qashqai's huge boot and spacious feeling interior. The rear seats don't do anything particularly clever, but they do fold flat without the need to flip up the seatbases first. All model aprt from the entry-level Visia also come with a false boot floor, under which you can store your parcel shelf when you're not using it.
Nissan's latest Qashqai gets the basic things right, by having lots of adjustment to the driver's seat and even the steering wheel. The driver interface and console are very easy to use. One drawback is that the thick front and rear pillars can obstruct view, and adjustable lumbar support only come with the top models.
The New Nissan Qashqai is a stylish, sleek looking crossover with aerodynamic looks. It has prominent wheel arches, a sculpted body this helps appeal to the average customer, whether it family or anything else. The Nissan Qashqai is one of the best-selling vehicles in the UK; also it's the bestselling SUV Crossover in the UK. The latest generation 2015 Nissan Qashqai is on sale now, with Nissan order banks filling up very fast. There are some exterior tweaks that will be consistent with the all new Nissan X-Trail model. The Qashqai's features include new larger headlights, a curvy new front fascia and grille. A new more desirable spoiler adds a little bit of a sporty feeling. On the whole the new Nissan Qashqai has been designed better than anyone could have imagined and also has engines to avoid any road tax whatsoever, What more could you need?

|Moral :
|Supposedly, the aliens transfer their host's personality into the spherical containers when they take control of the body. Yet at the end Sargon and Thalassa occupy Kirk and Mulhall for a last moment, after all the containers have been destroyed. So where do the host's minds go?
In Kirk's quote, he asks whether McCoy wishes that the first Apollo mission hadn't reached the moon. In point of fact the first Apollo mission didn't reach the moon - it never even launched, thanks to the tragic fire which killed the astronauts. Several more flights tested various systems and procedures, and although some of these orbited the moon - which may be close enough to count as reaching it, in Kirk's mind - it was not until Apollo 11 that a landing took place.
|Great Moment :
|Scotty's incredulity at the plan to lend Sargon his friend's body.
|Body Count :
|Kirk, but he comes back alive again. All three of the super-aliens end up dead.
|Factoid :
|Diana Muldaur who plays Dr. Mulhall and Thalassa in this episode, will later play Dr. Pulaski in TNG season 2. She also appears as Dr. Miranda Jones in TOS episode "Is There In Truth No Beauty".
Writer John T. Dugan's original script had Sargon and Thalassa become disembodied spirits who would float around the universe. Roddenberry changed the ending to have them fade into oblivion instead, which prompted Dugan to use his pen name John Kingsbridge for the episode.
George Takei's returned to Star Trek in this episode, having taken a few months off to film his role in the John Wayne movie "The Green Berets". In all he missed ten episodes following his appearance in "I, Mudd".
James Doohan performed the voice of Sargon, one of many voiced he did during the series.

The new 2014 Ford Fiesta on sale next year will be the first vehicle available in the United States with Ford's award-winning 1.0-liter EcoBoost((R)) engine. Though the car has not yet undergone EPA testing, it is expected to be certified as the most fuel-efficient non-hybrid car available in the United States.
The smallest engine available in its class, Ford's patented 1.0-liter EcoBoost won't be short on power, torque or refinement. The smooth, quiet-running engine is projected to produce 123 horsepower and peak torque of 148 lb.-ft.
"Customers are going to be pleasantly surprised at what the smallest member of the EcoBoost engine family can do," said Joe Bakaj, Ford vice president of Powertrain Engineering. "Most customers are not going to be thinking about the number of cylinders under the hood when they drive the new 1.0-liter EcoBoost Fiesta. They'll notice an extremely smooth and quiet idle, terrific acceleration accompanied by a sporty sound at high revs, and - most importantly - outstanding fuel economy."
The newest member of Ford's global EcoBoost engine family, the 1.0-liter will join the most fuel-efficient lineup in Ford Motor Company's history. Next year, Ford will offer eight vehicles rated at 40 mpg or higher - double today's total, and more than any other automaker. Ford tops Toyota in fuel economy in every segment in which both companies compete.
The 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine in the Fiesta expands Ford's power of choice strategy by giving customers interested in a very fuel-efficient car a new alternative.
Pricing is not yet set, but as with the other EcoBoost engines available across Ford's car, truck, SUV and crossover lineup, the 1.0-liter will be a very affordable option. Adding an EcoBoost engine costs about $995 in most Ford vehicles.
"Many customers would like the fuel efficiency of a modern diesel or a hybrid, but can't stretch their budgets to cover the cost premium," said Bakaj. "That's where the EcoBoost Fiesta fits in. It will offer a highly fuel-efficient alternative at a lower cost."
Newest EcoBoost engine - a game changer
The 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine is unlike any engine in Ford's 109-year history. Not only is it the company's first three-cylinder engine, but it debuts many new technologies never before seen in a Ford vehicle. These include an offset crankshaft; variable oil pump; split cooling system; external-balancing, super-small, responsive turbocharger; and a timing belt immersed in engine oil.
The result of the 1.0-liter's advanced design is a quiet, smooth-running engine that develops roughly the same output as a 1.6-liter four-cylinder. But with about 25 percent fewer moving parts, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is able to deliver higher fuel economy and lower emissions.
"We really focused on reducing the amount of energy the 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine uses by paying very close attention to such things as bearing sizes, piston ring tension and thermal management," said Bob Fascetti, director, Ford Global Engine Engineering. "For instance, we decided not to use a balance shaft in the engine because it adds weight and increases friction or parasitic losses. So we balance the engine externally with the crankshaft pulley and flywheel."
Super-successful debut
Since being launched in the spring in the Ford Focus in Europe, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine has established itself as one of the most noteworthy engines of 2012. In April it was voted International Engine of the Year by a jury of 76 journalists from 36 countries. In June it set 16 land speed records at a racetrack in France. In October the 1.0-liter EcoBoost was given a Breakthrough Award from Popular Mechanics magazine, and this month the engine won the prestigious DeWar Trophy in Great Britain.
In Europe, where the diesel engine is king, the 1.0-liter engine now accounts for about 30 percent of sales in the Focus. The 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine is just now launching in the B-MAX and C-MAX, and will also be offered in the all-new Mondeo.
The 1.0-liter engine is the fourth member of Ford's global EcoBoost engine family. Since launch in 2009, Ford has sold more than 520,000 EcoBoost-equipped vehicles globally and expects volume to grow to 1.6 million in 2013.
Ford has more than 125 patents on its EcoBoost engine technology, and the number of patents continues to grow.
EcoBoost combines turbocharging with gasoline direct injection and variable valve timing to allow a smaller engine to replace a larger one with no loss of performance and at least a 20 percent gain in fuel economy.
"We're extremely proud of the amazing success the 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine has achieved in such a short time," said Bakaj. "We think it will do extremely well here in the United States. With the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine in the F-150, we learned customers will embrace smaller engines as long as you don't ask them to sacrifice performance. The 1.0-liter will deliver three things that matter most to our customers - value for the dollar, terrific fuel economy and great performance."
