Have you ever heard of aliens or watched a movie of something totally not in existence in real life? Leave alone aliens, have you ever heard of a story that is totally out of reality, maybe something to do with ogres or animals talking?
All the ideologies mentioned above or occurrences are totally far away from reality; they are simply human imaginations that have never been in existences or will barely ever been in existence. Fiction is something imaginative, it mostly comes out as an artwork work informs of novels, short stories, novellas, and movies.
eBook stands for electronic book. The publishing industry is currently under transformation; electronic books are fast replacing the traditional print books. This does not mean that electronic books and print books differ in content; the only difference is their mode of presentation. The contents of an eBook are presented on electronic devices such as e-readers, tablets, iPad, phones, laptops, and desktops.
From the above knowledge, it is now high time to put different facts together and define a fiction eBook. A fiction eBook is an original artwork inform of a plot or a storyline, presented in an electronic file format which is readable on different electronic devices.
Know a few samples of fiction eBooks
Science Fiction eBooks; these are based on imaginary. They are really interesting to explore and mainly target the audience in love with science. The plot of such fiction books involve a lot of creativity and can range from solution oriented science to destructive science; it all depends with what the author has for the readers. If you are a fun of technology, science fiction can take you miles to technological worlds of imaginations.
Horror fiction eBooks; as the title suggests, such eBooks have a plot that is scary in nature. Blood, death, and much more fear generating circumstances fill the pages of Horror Fiction electronic books.
Romance fiction eBooks; this category of eBooks are all about love, and love escapades. They target readers who enjoy lots of romantic content especially ladies.
Mystery fiction eBooks; eBooks mainly focus on crime. The plot is usually centered on detectives and criminals; criminals go round committing series of crimes as detective go in pursuit of them. The circle continues until the criminals are brought apprehended and brought to book. Mystery fiction books can also carry the theme of 'justice' whereby characters are illegally made answerable for mistakes they did not commit; the climax of the plot is reached when justice is finally realized.
What are the advantages of non-fiction eBooks?
Portability; readers are in a position to carry their fiction eBooks around and read them anywhere on their devices compared to print books which occupy space.
Enhances creativity; Plots in fiction books are mainly imaginative in nature, and imaginations enhance creativity in human beings.
Generates happiness among readers; a majority of readers would testify that reading gives them a feeling of relaxation and satisfaction in life making them happier. Various studies have proven this beyond reasonable doubts.
Fiction eBooks build language and vocabulary; most readers if not all usually get to enhance their vocabulary from the good English used in fiction eBooks; as a result, they get to boost their language.
Boosts memory; regular readers get to digest and retain a lot of content in their brains. Fiction eBook readers are not an exception to this principle.

CHWs have a huge evidence base showing their contribution to the improvement and management of obesity. Download our CHW Impact on Obesity fact sheet and share how CHWs make an impact!
The Role of CHWs in Combating Obesity
Community Health Workers (CHWs) are public health workers with strong connections to the communities they serve. Their close bonds with community members allow them to serve as liaisons between health/social services and the community, facilitating access to services and improving service delivery to better meet community needs.3 CHWs help patients navigate the healthcare system, communicate with providers, set goals, and adhere to lifestyle changes through meetings and home visits.3
Through community education, informal counseling, social support, and the promotion of healthy lifestyle habits such as healthy eating and physical activity, CHWs help reduce obesity in the communities that they serve.4 Community-based CHW interventions result in improved dietary habits and increased physical activity.5,6 Several studies have shown that patients who receive support and health education from CHWs experience significant improvements in weight control,4,7,8 BMI,4 and waist circumference.4,5 The positive effect of CHWs on weight control has been documented in a variety contexts, including high-risk Black and Latino communities. 5,7,8
In its 2011 report, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends expanding CHW workforce, especially to reach racial and ethnic minorities and other underserved populations, to improve health outcomes and reduce healthcare disparities.9 The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act similarly recognizes CHWs as valuable members of care teams, and allocates funds to support and expand CHW programming.10
CHWs Addressing Obesity in Michigan
A variety of CHW-led obesity interventions are being developed, implemented, and evaluated in Michigan. A CHW intervention in Southwest Detroit called Healthy Mothers on the Move (MOMs) successfully improved pregnant Latinas' dietary habits.11 The Walk Your Heart to Health program established walking groups for Black and Latino residents of Detroit and significantly lowered participants' BMI and waist circumference.8 MiCHWA continues to work with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services' (MDHHS) Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention Unit to help agencies hire, train, and support CHWs so they can better support individuals and communities with obesity.

Dir: Matthew Gordon. US. 2011. 73mins
The big bold title of The Dynamiter – big white lettering against a black background – just a minute in to Matthew Gordon's nicely stager Mississippi mood melodrama hints that there could be something explosive and shocking to come. But while it is delightfully observed and nicely performed by its non-professional cast, it lacks the dramatic bite to go along with the low-key observation.
William Patrick Ruffin is an engaging enough presence, far better at portraying the gentler side of Robbie, but not so at ease when it comes to his feelings of conflict and anger.
The film is a nicely stage delve into the life of self-assured though frustrated Mississippi teenager Robbie Hendrick (William Patrick Ruffin), and while it could fit easily into indie film festivals – especially those with a teen section, similar to the Generation14 where it screened on Berlin – theatrical release might be difficult.
The film opens with Robbie and his young stepbrother Fess (John Alex Nunnery) playing in a hayfield, but soon it appears this his life is anything but carefree. Caught stealing at school, he is told to spend the summer writing an essay – though this is mainly a plot device for him to offer up bits of youthful narration during the film.
His is beaten up at a schoolfriend's party, then promptly steals money from her when she is trying to be kind to him. He looks after Fess and his elderly grandmother while his mother is away in California, and also cleans up the house and paints the front porch. He is a bundle of contradictions – genial and caring but also angry and given to stealing things.
The film potters along is engaging fashion – his older brother Lucas returns for a while, but just hangs around aiming to pick up local women – but there is an expectation for a major dramatic incident that never really emerges.
William Patrick Ruffin is an engaging enough presence, far better at portraying the gentler side of Robbie, but not so at ease when it comes to his feelings of conflict and anger. He achieves a happiness of sorts at the end of the film as he drives off with a girl he befriended. The final shot sees a repeat of the title The Dynamiter…that rather annoyingly just confirms the lack of anything explosive or dynamic.
But despite that, this low-budget film is engagingly watchable, nicely shot with good use of locations and a suitably warm folksy soundtrack with a game series of performances from the predominantly young cast to be admired.

Cancer cells with a long breath:
Seeking the origin of brain tumours in children
Munich, 08/12/2008
When children develop cancer, about every fifth tumour is a brain tumour – and every fifth of those in turn is a medulloblastoma. This common tumour occurs most of all in children under ten years of age, but also occurs in adults, albeit very infrequently. Up to now, medulloblastomas have only been treatable with the standard tools of cancer medicine: operation, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Surgical interventions to treat this condition, like all operations on the brain, are particularly delicate, since it is difficult to remove the tumour completely without affecting healthy tissue. Because these cerebellar tumours scatter easily throughout the brain and even in the medullary canal, many cases result in metastases, that is the growth of secondary tumours, and not infrequently to a relapse of the original tumour – often even after successful conclusion of the treatment.
That is why patients and doctors are hoping for more targeted therapies that promise better therapeutic outcomes. "But for that to be possible, we first need to understand the principles of how the tumours develop," says Schüller. "If we know how a tumour arises at the molecular level, we can also develop specific therapies that actually treat the cause of that particular condition." Since it was still unknown from what type of cell and at what stage of development medulloblastomas arise, the researchers induced specific genetic changes in various cell populations in the brains of mice. This "conditional knock-out" method provoked changes in the so-called sonic hedgehog signalling pathway. Various processes in the development of nerve cells are controlled by this molecular signalling cascade. "Normally, the signalling pathway ensures a balance of growth and maturation of cells," says Schüller. "But if disrupted, it can lead to uncontrolled growth of cells – and thus the onset of cancer".
In another step, the research team investigated the effects of mutations on nerve cells in various stages of development. Multipotent progenitor cells have the ability – almost like stem cells – to develop into many different types of cell, while "unipotent" progenitor cells can only develop into one specific type of cell. "All of our studies have shown that medulloblastomas can only develop from granule cells and their progenitors," Schüller tells us. "Other cells on the other hand, such as the large Purkinje cells of the cerebellum, do not become tumourigenic. They don't seem bothered by these mutations at all." And there is yet another distinctive result that the researchers achieved: the genetic changes only triggered one specific type of tumour: the medulloblastoma. Other brain tumours such as astrocytomas or oligodendrogliomas did not occur, even though, normally, the genetically attacked multipotent progenitors could have just as easily developed into astrocytes or oligodendrocytes.
It was especially surprising that even mutations in very early, immature cells triggered corresponding changes that only became tumourigenic if and when the cells had developed the characteristics of granule cells. The researchers were also surprised to find that the medulloblastomas appeared completely identical both morphologically and molecularly, no matter what stage of development they were triggered at. The researchers identified yet another factor in the development of medulloblastomas: the protein Olig2 has so far only been linked to the formation of glial cells in the brain, which primarily provide support for neurons. "But we also found Olig2 in progenitors of the granule cells of the cerebellum and in tumour cells," reports neuropathologist Schüller. "That means this protein also influences the formation and multiplication of cancer cells – which makes it clear once again just how closely normal and malignant development processes resemble one another. We hope our results will contribute to a targeted therapy for medulloblastomas. That will require further research, however, which we already have in the planning."
One of the funders of the studies was the German Cancer Aid, with whose assistance Schüller established one of two Max-Eder Young Investigator Groups at LMU. (ca/suwe)

I don't particularly like sit-coms. I can't remember the last one that I watched regularly… it had to be in the early 90's. Frasier maybe?
It's been a while.
I don't know why I don't like them. I think I have a relatively well-developed sense of humor, and other people laugh at me all the time. (hmm…) I think, in general, they bore me for one reason or another. No, not other people, sit-coms. Other people are fascinating!
So it takes a lot for me to recommend a sit-com. I'm recommending Big Bang Theory, and I'm shouting it from the rooftops!
The series revolves around a pair of young physicists – Sheldon and Leonard – who share an apartment. They are, I'm sorry to say, somewhat stereotypical geek men who are brilliant in a lab but otherwise socially stunted. Sheldon is so brilliant, technically-minded, and socially inept that he's almost robotic. Leonard is more of a warm/fuzzy physicist who has problems socially, but recognizes concepts like tact and friendship and does his best to help Sheldon with them. They are joined in just about every episode by two scientist friends — Wolowitz, a smarmy, self-described ladies-man who is so still lives with his mother (represented in the series only by a loud, obnoxious "Jewish mother" voice), and Koothrappali, a young Indian scientist who goes completely mute in the presence of the opposite sex. The foursome is off-set by Penny, a beautiful blonde Cheesecake Factory waitress from Nebraska who lives in the apartment across the hall. She is a social butterfly and the perfect foil for the four geeks.
The writing for the show is excellent, and the comedic timing of Sheldon in particular is absolutely perfect. I can't tell you how many times I've had to hit the REWIND button (thank God for TiVo!) because The Man and I were laughing so hard about something that we couldn't hear what happened next.
The show starts Season 2 on Monday, September 22nd at 8pm ET. There are a couple of episodes available for viewing on the CBS web site, and season one is currently available on DVD for purchase or rental. Check it out!

The school's work to promote pupils' personal development and welfare is outstanding. School leaders' and staff's commitment to inclusive values, mutual support and consideration for others is reflected in pupils' attitudes throughout the school.
This is to inform in writing although MGS is already aware; post GCSE result, our son has joined Welbeck, The Defence 6th Form College for his A Level Education.We are very thankful to Management Staff and Tutors of MGS for providing a top class secondary education for our son.
My son was skipping and jumping through the halls, and his excitement to show off his school and his lessons was very heart warming. He comes home daily with happy stories about his day at school.
I'd like to send a quick note on behalf of my son, who attended the Brazil fair (Year 6 outreach event) yesterday. He had a great time and was so excited when he came home and couldn't stop talking about the amazing things that he did whilst at the school.
My husband and I wanted to send a message to say how very impressed we were with our guide on Thursday evening and what a wonderful ambassador he was for your school. His manners were impeccable and he conversed confidently and informatively with us both.

Brett Henson vs Wade Ripple- Possible Semi State Finals match and top ten hwts Question to be answered 1. Can Hinderlifter or Rioux give Kentucky's stud middle schooler a match at 106? 2. Will Van Horn or Lee bump up or down to avoid facing each other? 3. Can Mason Miranda pull the upset of Ervin or Luigis? 4. How good is Sellmer? He is having a great year in beating Melloh of Cathedral and losing to Rumph in OT. I can see him getting 1st or 5th as 138 is loaded! 5. Who from Avon will have a mediocre tournament but make it to state? Last year Jacob Clark finished 5th at Mater Dei but 7th at state. Conley finished 5th at Mater Dei and was a SQ. 6. Most importantly, who wins the team race?? Union County beat Castle worse than Mater Dei did. Team Rankings- Union County #1, Avon #2, Mater Dei #3. How many state champs will come from the classic? Every year seems to produce around 3-7 state champs. Predictions- I say 9 state champs #1 (KY) Union Zeke Escalena #1 Avon Asa Garcia #2 (KY) St. X Nate Wheeler #1 (KY) Union Saul Ervin #1 (KY) Union Bryce Sheffer #1 MD Joe Lee #2 FC.

Book: Weeders - In the Year 2125 Only the Best Survive (Wonderfully Short Series) by Cristiano Caffiericategories: Book, Science Fiction, Intense Love Affair, Romance, Survival, Love, Lust, Sex, Maiden in Distress, Loving Relationship, Future World, Cruel Regime, Erotica
Cristiano Caffieriabout this book: Weeders is Book 2 in my Wonderfully Short Series, it takes around an hour to read and is priced accordingly. This is a Science Fiction Novelette and the story takes place in the year 2125. To control population growth, ease the demand on food supplies and eliminate undesirables, at the age of eighteen everyone must appear before the Auditors. They assess your suitability to remain a member of society, weeding out those who do not measure up based on their health, behaviour and academic achievements. Those who fail the audit are terminated.
There is a short appeal period but few succeed in changing the minds of the Auditors, but there is another way. A person who has scored lower that the hundred points required can marry someone that has a higher than average score and be allowed to live. These single high scorers are referred to as Angels, because they can save your life. Those who pursue them, almost begging for marriage, are called Chasers.
Darred Jamieson is an Angel and women throw themselves at his feet, but in spite of feeling desperately sorry for their plight, he's not ready to marry and settle down. The question is - can he be persuaded?
This book contains strong language and explicit sexual scenes.

Hello. This is Dan Stratford. I am a digital marketing consultant. I always hesitate to call myself an expert because as we all know, you are an expert in this industry today. You may be nobody tomorrow if you don't keep up on the latest and greatest. I do own a consulting and training company called Stratex Digital Marketing. One of my partners is Peter Kent who's the author of SEO for Dummies and one of the leaders in the industry. Today, what I'm going to be doing is going through how I quickly begin to analyze the current status of a business from a search engine optimization perspective, specifically start to analyze where they are now, where their opportunities are and begin to develop a little bit of a strategy.
This first piece though is going to be mostly about where they are and where the opportunities are before we get in to developing strategy. In this example, I'm going to use a company called Optic Nerve. Now, Optic Nerve is a competitor to Oakley and Smith and Rudy Project and those types of companies. They may need some help with their search engine optimization and we're going to find out how they're doing and how we can improve it. The first thing I'm going to do is search for them by name. One of the reasons that this is important is because if your website is not ranked for your branded search terms, your branded name, you're not likely to be able to rank it for other more competitive search terms. The foundation of any SEO strategy is ranking for your branded searches and specifically, your business name in the case.
Good news for them. Outside of this definition of optic nerve that Google has provided at the top of the search engine, we have a number one position for optic nerve. Optic Nerve.com is right here at the top. I'm using Mozilla Firefox browser and I have a bunch of plugins which is why you see this extra information here, but the tool we're going to highlight today is SEMrush, which we're going to use, again, SEO analysis, as well as keyword analysis. I find this to be a good tool. In some situations and in many situations to start to begin a keyword research. You could just go to SEMrush.com, but if you have the SEO book plugin on your Firefox browser, you'll see this icon here and you can just, after going to the website that you're going to be analyzing, you can just click on this icon.
First, we'll go to the website and we're not going to talk too much here about onsite optimization. There certainly looks to be some reason for updating or upgrading this website, but we're not going to talk too much about it. I will say that onsite SEO is a vital component of any search engine optimization, digital marketing strategy and having a website that converts. That is, engaging is vital to market success in general, but is becoming more and more, has become more and more important to success in SEO, but we're not going to talk about that now. Let's look at how these guys rank currently. If I click this little icon, it'll pop up another browser here that is SEMrush and probably stands for search engine marketing rush for the uninitiated.
The first thing that SEMrush presents is what they would predict this business's historical search engine, organic search engine traffic to be. One thing I've noticed with this tool is it may or may not be accurate when you're dealing with local search because they don't always seem to give a business credit for showing up in the local map section of the Google Search that appears, that puts them at the top of the page, but for general search engine optimization, it's usually a good indicator and it tells me some trends of this website over time. This website was established or at least crawled, according to SEMrush, as early as December of 2009. They spent a little bit of money on Google AdWords as this yellow orange line would indicate. This blue line indicates their estimated search engine traffic based on some factors that we'll discuss in a moment.
You can see, over time in general, this website's credit or equity with Google has improved, had some ups and downs and one thing I might ask this business or business owner or marketing person, whoever is marketing this business is, have they engaged in any proactive search engine optimization strategies over the years and during these specific time frames where they seem to have gained a significant amount of traffic or lost a significant amount of traffic? Back in May of 2012, it looks like they took a … had some significant increase to their traffic, although it dropped down a bit. Went up from 90 searches or 90 visits a day or a month from organic searches to over 1,300 visits a month from organic searches and then dropped back down to 700 or so, and then again, took another bump here in December of 2013. A little bit of a bump in February. Even a positive large bump, probably their most significant increase since 2012, they experienced in August of 2014.
One thing this may indicate is they have engaged in some proactive search engine optimization strategies or maybe they haven't. Maybe it's just dumb luck. Over time, they've been adding content to their site. They've been gaining links because of their reputation in the marketplace or doing press releases and maybe those things. Maybe engaging in social media have had a positive impact on their rankings. We'll talk a little bit more about traffic with this tool here in a moment, but let's go ahead and page down a bit. The most useful information for me in this conversation is looking at really their organic keywords. One thing that SEMrush tries to do is show you who their competitors are in organic search, but I don't think they necessarily do a great job of this. Unless the site is already really, really well-optimized and targeting the right terms for the business.
As you can see, this is telling me here that they're ranked number three nationwide for the search term "optic nerve" which is probably not that relevant to their business. Let's look at this full keyword list. I'm going to click on "full report." Let's talk about this and how we can use this data here constructively. What SEMrush does by default, at least they did on this search is they sorted the keywords in the order that they believe is driving the most traffic to the website. They determine that by looking at, first of all, they only look at search terms that they have deemed to have some kind of search volumes. Sometimes, the search term may only have ten searches a month. Here's some with only 40 or 70. This search term, "optic nerve" has over 14,800 searches a month. If a search term out there that maybe only get searched once a month or maybe five times a month, it may not even show up in this list. That's one of the caveats.
This is telling me that these guys rank somewhere in Google for 1,155 different keywords, but that by no means is all the search terms for which they rank. In fact, if you were to look in Google Webmaster Tools, which is now called Google Search Console, you would probably see that they actually have a presence or some kind of equity for two to three to five to ten times more than this number of keywords, but a lot of those may only have one search a month. Let's look at this. How they determine that "optic nerve" drives the most amount of traffic to the website is they say, "Okay. They're in position three." If I'm position three, I probably have a fairly high click through rate. That is for every 100 searches on that term, I'm probably getting somewhere between five and maybe twenty visits where people page down just a bit and click and go to my website, so 5 to maybe say 15% of the time if I'm on position three, people are going to click on my website.
Since it has a search volume of 14,800 searches a month, that could drive a lot of traffic as you can imagine. If you look at the second term here, "optic nerve sunglasses" which brings 24% of traffic extensively according to SEMrush versus 46, 47% of traffic of "optic nerve," you'll see that they're in position one. Position one can have as high as say, 30 to 35% click through rates, depending of course. All relative type of search and many other factors, but it can have a very high click through rate. We're estimating that even though this only has 880 searches a month, currently ranked number one. This is their second leading driver of traffic, organic traffic to the website. You can see this term here which is another branded term for them, if you will. They're also ranked number one, but it only has 210 searches a month. You can see, it dropped down significantly to only 3 or 4%, between 3 and 4% of traffic.
"Optic" on the other hand, the word "optic" has over 12,000 searches, but since they're on the second page of Google, it's not driving a lot of traffic for them and to be frank, they probably don't care for a lot of traffic from that kind of less relevant search term, but because it has such a high search volume, even though it has a relatively low ranking being on the second page of the 14th position in the search results, they only have about a 3% to their … 3% of their traffic is coming from this search term. "Optic nerve glasses," which is again, branded term and by the way, we call these branded when they have the business name on them or the product name on them. Optic Nerve sells ONE sunglasses, so you could argue that's a branded term. They're ranking really well for branded terms.
"Optic nerve sunglasses" only has 70 searches a month, but they're ranking number one, so they're likely to get a significant number of searches from it. A little bit of an anomaly here for some reason, even though there's more searches for this and they're position one for both of these terms. They're positioning "optic nerve glasses" above "optic nerve goggles." Again, that's why we look at this data and we don't look at it as the gospel, but as things that we can look at and discover trends and help us research current statuses of a website and a business online and look for opportunities. If you consider this data here and then go over here again to this traffic tool. I'm going to change this to …
Remember, we clicked on "traffic" and I opened it up in a back … When I opened it up on a different tab and we can change this from "traffic" to "traffic price," or from "organic searches" and "traffic price" that the value of the traffic essentially from paid traffic and I can plot this data and I can look at it historically from an all time perspective. Again, it looks like they may have spent some money on Google AdWords back in December 2012 to January of '13, but kind of the same trends. The difference in traffic price is, this factors in a couple of things here. First of all, how they're ranking on the search terms, for the terms that they're ranking, what's the search volume and then what is the cost per click that Google would charge if they were to be up 24-7 in Google AdWords?
Again, their click through rate is going to be a factor of maybe 5 to 10% because they're in position three, times 14,000 times .76, so you could see that the value of that is going to be pretty high. It's going to be lower for this one. Even though they're in position one, there's only 880 searches and so they go to this whole list and they'd look at what's the cost per click, what's the ranking and what is the search volume? They take that data and they put it here and they estimate what the organic traffic value is. I personally don't find this incredibly useful for me to really say, "Hey, your website has $3,000 worth of traffic every month for organic." Or, "Your website has," in this case, "$1,100 a month in traffic from organic."
What I do find it helpful for is trends and then if I do a competitive comparison. I might put in Oakley.com, who is one of their competitors for example and discover that Oakley has, from an organic perspective, how they're doing versus how they're doing from a paid perspective and I may be able to compare Oakley.com to Optic Nerve.com. I'm using this tool to identify trends. Here's a little bit of a deep for example in their rankings, as if something bad happened here, maybe, maybe not, but here, I can use it for a competitive comparison. I can see that Oakley has relatively much, not only do they have higher site value organically, but they've actually spent more on paid search and then Optic Nerve has gotten, according to this tool, in organic search month over month.
It's a useful tool for relative comparisons and it also tells me that, well, I can't depend on knowing that Oakley has spent 700 … I'm sorry. How much is that? $53,000 a month in Google AdWords. I do know that they're investing something likely in Google AdWords. One way to use this tool, compare yourself to your competitors, identify trends, great for that. Let's go back to the keyword analysis. I find it much easier to do keyword analysis in an Excel document, so I'm going to open up here an Excel document. I'm going to export this data from SEMrush into Excel and then I have already started to develop a workbook for my analysis of this company. I'm going to take this data. I'm going to paste it into page one of the workbook and I'm going to name this worksheet "All SEMrush keyword data for Optic N."
Now, I'm also going to just get rid of this extra spreadsheet. I could have just started out with this in my basic spreadsheet, but I've already saved this into a folder for this analysis so it'd be handier there. I'm going to make this look a little bit bigger so you can see it much more clearly. Now, one thing I'm going to do is let's review this data a little bit more in depth. It tells me their current position, their previous position which may have just been a few weeks back. The search volume of the keyword, the estimated cost per click and that's what makes that look like dollars. Dress this up a little bit if I wanted to, but the other thing it tells me is what page is Google bringing back in the search results when people search on this term? We'll get a little bit more into why that's important later.
Looking at traffic percentage there, of course, and then traffic cost percentage, competition and trends and all that stuff which we won't get into for what we're doing today. One thing that I want to do now is start to look at the keywords that are not branded, because most of these at the top are branded keywords and I want to start to look at keywords that are going to drive new business for this prospect. First thing I'm going to do in this case is I'm going to sort this data by search volume, largest to smallest. Now, I have these keywords organized from most searched to least searched regardless of their rankings for the search term and I would look at this first term here, Cabelas.com and that would lead me to believe that somewhere on the Optic Nerve site, they mentioned Cabelas. Maybe they sell their products through Cabelas, but in fact, if you look at this URL, we'd probably go to this URL and see that the Optic Nerve website is referring to Cabelas, obviously.
That's not a branded term and it's not really doing much for their business because they're in position thirty seven. It might drive a little bit of traffic as you can see here. Now this term, "polarized sunglasses," that looks like a very valuable term for this business as they sell polarized sunglasses and polarized sunglasses are relatively expensive. I was buying a pair of Oakley sunglasses a few weeks ago and the non-polarized lens version of the sunglasses was $100 less than the polarize lens version of the sunglasses. These are high value keyword for a good product. What I would like to do is start to have a list of keywords that are around polarized sunglasses. What I'm going to do is I'm going to add a filter here to just this column.
I work on a Mac so how you add a filter might be different on the Mac version of Excel than a PC, but you've got to be a little bit familiar with excel to do a great job of keyword research. Now, I'm going to type in, I'm going to filter out SUNG, short for sunglasses and I'm starting to see that, okay, now I've got a bunch of keywords that many of which are going to be targeted. I'm going to take this list and I'm just about to. I'm going to grab it all. Again, this is filtering just the sunglass list and I'm going to copy it. Copy, and I'm going to open up another tab here and I'm going to paste it by hitting Command+V on my keyboard. Now, I've got a list of the keywords that just have the word "sunglasses" in them and they're already ranked from most searched to least searched, because I just copied it right over, but let's get a little more specific. Let's look at polarized.
I'm going to do POL. Some people spell polarized P-O-L-A-R, which is correct, but some people might put a different vowel in there, so I want to get all of these here and maybe catch misspellings if there are any. Now, I'm getting to very, very targeted keywords for this business. When I look at this, as I start to think about a strategy for this business, I look at, this is a great buying signal keyword. This right here, probably a good buy and to know, right here, "polarized women sunglasses," a great buy and to know keyword. "Polarized sunglasses," buying signal keywords. These are great keywords that I might want to target as part of my SEO campaign for my most aggressive, what I would call my head terms, "polarized sunglasses for kids," "polarized sunglasses," but I see some really helpful information here as well which is, there is a search for what are polarized sunglasses? What is polarized sunglasses? Why polarized sunglasses?
I look at these as very good blog topics. In other words, if I ranked a website for this term and this term and this term, put a lot of effort into the and then I write blog post on these types of questions, what I'd like to find is that I'm not only ranking for these terms, but I very quickly rank for these blog posts and drive some excellent traffic to my website where I am establishing my business as the authority in the market and giving a reason why people would want to buy my polarized sunglasses versus someone else's. Very good search data here, and I colored these for a couple of reasons. If we clear this filter out, we can sort this further. I like to sort things and go, "Okay. We're going to maintain a search volume, but first, let's sort these by color."
I'm going to put my most valuable ones there highlighted in green at the top. I'm going to put the blog questions that I liked in yellow just below that and then I still want to maintain search volume as the order that I put these in because I probably don't want to look through 500. I want to identify some quick opportunities. Again, now we have blog topic, keyword research combined with some really solid beginnings of keyword research. These are good targeted terms with a lot of search volume. If we could get their website ranked via a solid search engine optimization strategy on the first page of Google on a term that has 27,000 searches a month, they can have a huge impact on their business or [inaudible 00:23:35] to drive revenue, quality traffic to their website and revenue for their business provided that the website does a good job of converting and capturing leads and sales.
The other thing that's good here is that these guys already have some equity with Google. Meaning that Google already brings them back on the fifth page of Google and the third page of Google and the sixth page of Google and the seventh page of Google for these search terms. Which isn't great and that it's not driving a whole lot of traffic for them right now, but it tells me that they've already been identified as relevant for these search terms and with the right strategy and the right amount of work, we have a good opportunity to get them ranked for this over the next probably six to twelve months. It does take some time, but it could happen and maybe this keyword, maybe we can make some ground on that in the next three to six months if we have a good strategy.
It also helps me out by showing me what keywords are targeting what pages. Google seems to like these two keywords for this page, which makes sense. Google seems to like this keyword, this page rather for this keyword search. It makes sense. It's got … Definitely went to this page, it talked about women's polarized sunglasses. Then I might at some point want to start creating individual pages for some of these other keywords if I deemed them valuable. Like a "ski sunglasses" for example, that's a valuable … If we sell ski sunglasses and we want to rank for ski sunglasses and we may want to build some content because the homepage is probably not the best place for people to land on when they're looking for ski sunglasses. It becomes a quality experience for the user, which is very important for SEO.
I mean, I did this one more time because we have found one keyword for this business which is the "polarized sunglasses" and maybe, we just target sunglasses, but I would argue that polarized sunglasses are more valuable targeted term for a high end company that produces high end sunglasses. Let's look at another one. As I went down this list earlier, I saw "snowboarding goggles." I will bet that these guys sells goggles. I am going to filter out the goggle search phrases, the keyword phrases that contain the word "goggle" and I'm going to copy these and I am going to paste these now on a different sheet. I'm accomplishing a number of things there. First of all, I am identifying how they're ranked on current terms, identifying keywords that could be really good opportunities for them. I'm also starting to develop a strategy of maybe bucketing keywords.
I have a bucket of keywords they want to target to certain pages. Another bucket of keywords that I want to build content for on different pages. We've got snowboarding is one type of goggle that they sell so we could, if we wanted to quickly to do this is maybe I just want to move all the snowboarding keywords to the top. Maybe I want to take this keyword list and I want to add it over here so we have snowboarding goggles on this page. Then from an SEO perspective, again, I want to look for different opportunities to rank the website, drive traffic, drive revenue, drive business for these guys. Maybe I'll look at ski goggles. Those could arguably be two different types of content that we want to develop and at the very least, could be a lot more or even subsets of ski and snowboard goggles for it and since we might have polarized here, snowboard goggles.
Now, we have ski goggles. We see that even for goggles, they have some equity on a bunch of search terms and they have equity for snowboarding goggles as well. It could be a tougher hill to climb for goggles as they … Well, they're in the fifth page, the fourth page where there's still some good opportunities for them. As I begin to the, A, develop keywords, this is a great tool with SEMrush to look for keywords for this business and look for opportunities and I have reason to be optimistic with this website that given the right strategy in relatively short order within the next year could be a realistic goal to start ranking and dominating even the market for these search terms.
Hope this has been helpful. If you would like any more information on keyword research and you need help learning how to do search engine optimization or any kind of digital marketing, don't hesitate to reach out to me, Dan Stratford at Stratex Digital Marketing. Thank you and have a great day.

Find a strategic buyer for your business for sale in Montreal
Any business owner who has sold an enterprise on their own will attest to the tedious process that consumes both time and energy while creating unnecessary distractions from the day-to-day operations of the business. A business owner's focus should be on maintaining or increasing the enterprise's value, not finding the right buyer.
The majority of small to medium sized businesses today are sold by word of mouth and without the intervention of a professional business broker. A buyer contacts a business owner directly and makes an offer for the business. After some negotiation, the buyer and seller arrive at a price. The transaction is then concluded.
While this approach seems simple and less costly for the seller, it generally ends up costing the seller much more than a broker's commission, because the majority of sellers are not financial experts. Most business owners have never sold a business before and do not know how much their business is really worth in the market.
Furthermore, since the business has not been exposed to other potential buyers, there is no way to know exactly what the business would be worth on the market. The result of this approach is that businesses are sold at a price below their true market value.
Being professional, knowledgeable and discrete, we help business owners minimize distractions during the sale of their business.

Om Sathguru Sri Seshadhri Swamigal Thiruvadikkae
SathGuru Sri Gnanananda Swamigal attained Jeeva Samadhi at the Tapovanam at the town of Thirukoilur (situated 39 kms. From Thiruvannamalai, TamilNadu).
SathGuru Gnanananda, was a Siddhapurusha, operating on different planes of consciousness. With his matchless intuition he could sense the latent capacities and talents of his devotees and make them flower forth, to the astonishment of all. And that would be as natural and organic, as a caterpillar turning into a butterfly, a flower into a fruit. But what is more wondrous is that he could make a 'rainbow out of granite!'
Most people operate at the level of their surface or gross consciousness. One cannot fail to take note of Swami's mystifying and unpredictable treatment of his disciples. For instance, Swami had given a lamp to a young mother and asked er to keep it under her son's cot. Her failure to do it continually, resulted in the loss of the child.
What may be considered a pleasing prospect at the surface level, may not necessarily be always good. Gnanananda Swamigal being a Siddhapurusha, operated from an absolute plane and therefore reacted differently at different points of time.
One should not seek the reason behind it. What needs to be understood is that whatever is laid down by the Guru, is essentially dictated by the need of the occasion, not as the onlooker sees it, but as it should be.
Once, a child of a close devotee of the Swami developed acute stomach complications. The Swami, by merely offering of a banana cured it. On another occasion, when someone, assuming the ashram to be some kind of a clinic, sought the Swami's help was turned away by the reply: "There are plenty of professional doctors to treat the sick. They are jobless. You need not come here for that."
On Daana (Charity):
SathGuru Gnanananda laid great emphasis on charity, more particularly on Anna Daana (offering of food). This would remind us of the esoteric significance of food, which is explained in the Taitiriyopanishad in these words:
"Whatsoever creatures the earth contain, truly all of them are born from food, kept alive by food and return with it in the end. Food is the first creation. Food is called 'annam' because creatures both consume it and are consumed by it."
SathGuru Gnanananda frequently echoed Yoga Vasishta:
"The root of the mind and the root of the Prana are the same; controlling one, one could control the other." Control of breath means merely watching the mind, the flow of breath.
"Thought is that which activates the mind." Without thought, the mind does not function and may then be said to cease to exist. Grief, mental distress, nervousness and irregular breathing are the symptoms of a distracted condition of the mind. The mind that is only a bundle of thoughts thus becomes extinct, like a fire not fed by fuel.

Something I might not have told you about myself: I am a potato-aholic…Any way you want to make them; mashed, fried, gratin-ed, you name it, I will eat it. On the flip side, my husband sees potatoes as a delivery vehicle for ketchup or gravy, (oh, the blasphemy!) so it must be a pretty special recipe where he does not even contemplate reaching for either. This is such a recipe. In short, it is fantabulous!
To be honest, I came across this recipe because I had some heavy cream left over that needed to be used. Who knew, I would find a wondrous taste sensation for breakfast, lunch, or dinner as well as a geeky kind of cooking experiment. You see, the cream, once its fat is rendered, will brown up potatoes just as well as butter and leave behind little squares from heaven. I am telling you, get some gold potatoes and make this immediately (well on Tuesday…)
- 2 1/2pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper
Bring potatoes, cream, and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt to boil in 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until nearly tender, about 10 minutes.
Remove lid, increase heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid evaporates and potatoes are well browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve.

Isn't that how it is? When we get honest...share our weaknesses, our despair, our failings.
We share them simply,
we share them heartfelt,
we share our weakness in fear...
and somebody who hears, prays...and God answers.
This study in Galatians is going to be life changing,
IF we let it....
IF we listen,
IF we listen closely to the Spirit,
IF we hear.
You see Galatians is about God alone, Christ alone, Faith alone. Paul is forceful, even angry about getting the gospel right so God gets the glory...so all the honor and praise and glory go to Christ for what he did on the cross.
And we get it wrong...
we want to add something...
we want religion....
we want a list...
we want to look good...
we want to do faith right...
we don't want to be needy...
Trouble is when we aren't honest our sisters can't pray. Sisters, our faith sisters, don't know they need to pray.
When someone has cancer, or an at-risk pregnancy, or a child who just died, or a parent who is in the grip of Alzheimers, we pray. We know what to pray for because we see their pain, their fear, their deep need. We ask for them because we know that God tells us to "ask."
But when it is sin someone is dealing with, we don't necessarily want to know. That can get messy. But when we don't know that someone is struggling with something "sinful," we won't be praying.
So last week, in preparing the lecture for the first lesson in Galatians, I was hit by truth--about my sin.
How in the world can we know grace, really know and understand grace, if we don't sin. After all if we don't know/acknowledge our sin, how can we admit we need grace? But since we do sin, and like Luther said, we won't stop this side of eternity, we need grace. Oh, how I need grace.
So how do we get there? God does it once again.
Sometimes we begin to think we have arrived...we are doing things pretty well...we don't sin much...and then God allows sin, brings sin so I have to turn to him. I can't stop on my own, it will take his power, his strength, his presence to deal with this sin.
I have to realize, hold on to the fact that I need grace more than ever.
I need to realize that I cannot do this alone.
I must depend on Christ alone.
I must depend on his sacrifice for me on the cross.
You see I am forgiven. Yes, I was FORGIVEN of all my sins at the cross, and now I live knowing that there is nothing, absolutely nothing I can or can't do that will separate me from the love of God because I am justified in Christ.
Thank God, in realizing my total dependence on Christ, I understand more about grace.
So...how do I know someone prayed? Last week I shared my sin, the thing that keeps me going back to Christ, to the cross, to grace because I know I'm forgiven, I'm redeemed, and yet.........I struggle. I desire change but I can't change me.
And then today at aholyexperience.com, Ann said something that I needed. Something huge for me, something very freeing.
"'It is more noble to give yourself completely to one individual than to labor diligently for...the masses.' Christ left the ninety-nine for the one."
You see, these last few years I find myself getting really frustrated with Larry and all that he can't do and sometimess I get plain angry. Oh, I know....believe me I know.....he can't help it. He does the best he can but the slower walking, the bathroom trips that I need to take with him, the cleanup times when I don't, and on and on and on get to me, and I sin.
The truth is, I'm selfish. I want to spend time as I choose...isn't it easier to labor for the masses instead of just for one behind closed doors? But Ann's blog today is what I needed to hear. I printed it off and plan to read it again and again and again.
She wrote that because someone prayed after I was honest. Thank you...
We want you to get all the glory because of what you are doing in our lives and the lives of our brothers and sisters in you. Help us to not just listen to our sisters but to pray for them; to bring them before you asking you to use their sin, their fears, their weaknesses to draw them to you.
Oh, God, we thank you that you put us in family to share our hurts, our struggles, our failures. Continue your work of sanctification that will make us like Jesus when we see him in heaven.
And Lord, please help others to pray for me.
This was taken in September at a 35th wedding anniversary party for my sister and her husband.

Hard to Imagine Living in Mississippi Without Air Conditioning
Neither the temperature nor the humidity changes much at night this time of year, so opening all the windows brought little relief. Still, I felt like I had to try. Sticking the one electric fan I could find in front of an open window had to be better than nothing. As I lay in bed sweating and drifting in and out of consciousness, I heard a strange noise. I figured it had to be the insects outside, but it wasn't. It turns out it was me.
I've had asthma since I was an infant, but it has been fairly well controlled by medication for most of my adult years. Not that night. With all the windows open, it wasn't long before I could hear myself wheezing. Evidently, the air conditioning had been doing a good job of separating me from the many things I'm allergic to. It has been so long since I had to use one of the inhalers my allergist prescribes that I wasn't sure I had one. Fortunately, I found one without too much difficulty and it allowed me to breathe almost normally.
It was 85 and humid as I tried to sleep and 82 and humid as I finally gave up in the morning. Fortunately, I was able to get a repair guy to come out early on a Sunday morning and fix it. I was pleasantly surprised to find a local business in this part of the country willing to work on Sunday. They made me pay extra for it, of course, but at least they were willing to do it. With warmer weather in the forecast, I wasn't interested in waiting another day.
Fortunately, the fix was not too expensive or time-consuming. The repair guy identified the problem quickly and had the part he needed. Getting it back on made a difference within just a few minutes. As the repairman pointed out, taking the humidity out of the air is what makes the difference. I'm thrilled to have my sexist air conditioning back.

Virtual event
When you walk down the "shr-e-bangla road " in the old tannery district of Hazaribagh in the Bangladeshi capital of Dhaka you can smell waste from the garbage all around. Some people collect left over items and walk up and down the street in dirty clothes and slippers. When I walk along I see some people that I do business with and friends. It's a kind of a village life with many colourful rickshaws, within one of the most overcrowded places in the world.
The tanneries have major challenges working with the local raw materials. The local cow hides have a fine and beautiful grain but the tightness over the skin is very uneven! There is a tendency for looseness, which might be considered as some of the worse with the highest proportion of looseness in the world. Less than 30% retain a tight grain and it is not possible to produce a really tight article in my opinion. It is also true to say that the slaughtering in the area is not really well organised by big slaughter companies, but instead is carried out by small operations. This makes it difficult to get the most out of the hides during the beamhouse operations and obtain consistent results.
Forward steps
Having outlined the processing difficulties working with the tanners in Hazaribagh there is also another side to the story. In the past few years there has been many articles written about the poor environmental and working conditions in the area. The wastewater treatment problem has been highlighted and presented to the Bangladeshi government. However, there are only two main reasons why the pressure for the relocation to the new tannery area in Savar near Dhaka has really increased in recent months.
An initial recommendation to relocate the tanneries was submitted by Unido experts in 1996. Since then many deadlines have been missed for the relocation of the tanneries. There have been many reasons for this but the three core issues are:
- Up to now no wastewater treatment plant has established in Savar supported by the government.
- The value of the compensation payments to tannery owners was not properly negotiated.
- There have not been any long-term bank loans available to tanners at a reasonable interest/repayment levels.
The construction work of the central effluent treatment plant (CETP) was started at the beginning of March 2014. When I initially heard this, for me, it was a big surprise. I went to Savar at the end of March to see for myself if something was really happening regarding the construction of the CEPT. And yes, they have started to build a wastewater treatment plant to handle 25,000m³ per day. The wastewater volume at the moment from the tanneries in Hazaribagh is currently around 22,000m³ per day.
Some tanners see the relocation as a good opportunity, for example Momtazul Karim Ansari Russel from Karim Leather. He sees the move as a great opportunity to set-up a modern tannery with new business possibilities for the future. There are also other voices who worry about their future competitiveness in terms of increasing costs for the wastewater treatment and the stoppages in production during the relocation.
Some local government people state that they want to see the relocation to be complete by the end of 2014, but to relocate such amount of tanneries (around 127) in a country such as Bangladesh will take a while. In my opinion, the first tannery will open in the new tannery district in Savar in 2016 at best.
I come back to the rickshaws as a good example of the small steps being taken forward in Bangladesh. When I first visited in 2012, all the rickshaws were driven by manpower. Nowadays you can see slowly more and more driven by battery.
How fast change is possible in a country like Bangladesh where the most of the people are uneducated and do not really think about or consider environmental issues is limited. The world is watching and criticising the current condition of the tanneries in Dhaka, especially Hazaribagh. But remember one thing! So long as consumers want to buy the cheapest products possible without asking too many questions about where and how they were made then places such as Dhaka in developing countries will continue to exist.

My sole motivation is to help families plan their retirement.
Since most retirement plans are through the employer, I specialize in helping business owners start and manage 401 (k)s, SIMPLE IRAs, etc.
One remark I often hear from employees is they have no idea who handles their employer's retirement plan. One person put it succinctly:
This retirement advisor shows up once a year, tells me to sign his form, then I do not see him until next year."
My clients do not have that problem because when I become the personal financial advisor for the employees, as well as you, the business owner.

In Rawalpindi (or Pindi) I see many exciting things besides the profound car-stickers and burning tires. The following is my latest discovery:
What is that?
I was born and raised in Karachi and I've always lived in cities. I'm not very familiar with animals that have aunty-like asses stuck to their tails. I watched this animal closely – it looked like a cross between a dog, a goat and an aunty. But it had testicles so it must be an uncle instead. One couldn't be sure. Maybe it was as uncle on his way to becoming an aunty.
Anyway, since I write commentaries on aunties often, this image seemed very relevant to my research on Pakistani Aunties (and now Uncles).

To be honest, based on what it looks like from the outside, I really thought this was a fancy tea shop for the longest time. Which is why I never bothered to try it. Until recently.
Uncle Lu aka sister store of Corner 23 is always packed with people. At times you really have to seat yourself, and the food takes a while to come out, so I would not suggest coming here if you are in a rush.
They tend to alternate their teas (sometimes within the hour which bugs me as I do not appreciate drinking a mixture of red and green tea, I am a food purist in that sense) but I absolutely love the aroma of their red tea.
Below is a compilation of the foods we have eaten as I have been here too many times.
Chicken With Thai Style Spicy Chili Sauce
I expected some special Thai sauce made in house, but this was literally the Thai Spicy Chili Sauce you can buy at the market
Fried Pork With Sweet and Sour Sauce
Taiwanese Style Pork Sausage
Sliced Pork With Garlic Sauce
Classic Taiwanese Dish! :)
Wan Luan Pork Hock
First time having this dish so I can't compare it to much, but very well marinated and the sauce definitely hit the spot.
Chicken With Three Spice Sauce
My All Time Favourite, Really impressed as I can say Uncle Lu is probably one of my top 3 go to places for this dish
