Yes it may seem strange but these techniques are not new.

How do they do it?

These “make money with no advertising” strategies are done with the help of a search engine. You see everyday people are searching for information online. It could be anything from pain relief to the newest game console.

Sometimes when a person types in a keyword at the search engines the “sorry no results were found” appears. Does it mean that there isint any answer to that question. Sure there is but the search engines are machines and cannot think.

The way you can make money on this is simple. They try to find a search term that has little or no search results. Once they have found a “low competition keyword phrase” they take advantage of other websites ranking.

There are countless blogs and classifieds out there that allows you to put together a small personal page for free. They then write an article,ad or a small paragraph with text that contains the keyword phrase. Then they link to a product that is related to the searchers problem.

Their goal is to get the search engines attention and get indexed under those keywords. Because next time someone searches that keyword phrase. Their ad, article or text will show up allowing them to make money if someone buys the offered product.

This is one of the techniques that you will learn in the who loves money ebook. The difference is that all have their different ways of doing it. Some more effective than others.

Using Blogs In School

Pitfalls

There are some pitfalls ahead if you decide to approach blogging in a genuine way. Blogging is both a way to publish stuff very quickly, and to comment on other people’s views very quickly. Like any conversation, you can’t predict the direction it will take. And also, like any conversation, other people will be mentioned and referred to as a matter of course.

Viewpoints

So, the first thing you need to know and be prepared for is that students will come across and be exposed to points of view that may lie outside their usual circle of friends, family and acquaintances. They need strategies and tools to help them make sense of these new, perhaps “heretical”, thoughts. In other words, they need to be able to start to evaluate information as to its plausibility and accuracy. How fortunate that these are precisely two of the skills that the UK National Curriculum, and other curricula around the world, require students to possess!

Genuine blogging also entails expressing views. You will need to decide whether you wish to take the risk, because there is a chance that they will say detrimental things about other students, teachers and the school.

Rules

You will need a set of rules to which everyone adheres. For example, using a blog to launch a personal attack on someone is not only potentially libellous, but even potentially criminal. Even if it is neither of those things, it could amount to cyberbullying, which is a nasty and irresponsible use of the medium. As for complaining about the school, it may be diplomatic to keep such conversations private, ie not accessible to the general public. After all, all families have arguments, but that’s no reason to make it a spectator sport!

In my experience, however, the most hardline thought police come in the guise of teachers of English. These people (rightly) believe that the English language is to be cherished and respected, but sometimes seem to lose sight of the fact that the whole point of language is to facilitate communication.

Now, when I am reading a book or a newspaper article and discover a misspelling or the incorrect use of an apostrophe, I get slightly apoplectic. But as far as I am concerned, that kind of thing in blogs (and, for that matter, emails and discussion forums) not only doesn’t detract from the message, but in a strange way enhances it. It conveys an air of urgency: that it was far more important to get the message out quickly than to worry about niceties like spelling!

Yet another thing which will be likely to upset the guardians of English is the fact that it is OK, in this context, to publish half-formed thoughts, ie the equivalent of thinking aloud. That is, the usual process of drafting and redrafting before publication may be swept aside as the thoughts are refined publicly, with the assistance of other people and their comments.

And why not? Web 2.0 is all about collaboration, which is exactly what this is.

But of course, the caveat is that students also know when such cavalier attitudes are not appropriate. Spelling and grammatical errors in an interview-seeking email (increasingly common these days) is unlikely to guarantee success, whist including half-formed thoughts in an exam situation has tended not to be recommended as a strategy.

Commenting on blogs

As for commenting, I would suggest that bloggers should make it both possible and easy for people to comment on their blogs, in order to encourage the online conversation. Unfortunately, though, some people’s conduct is such that it’s necessary to either moderate comments before they go live, or have some kind of registration system that people have to go through before being permitted to make comments (though this isn’t foolproof).

The corollary of this, of course, is to ask would-be commenters to make comments which are both polite and useful. For example, simply saying “You are wrong”, is a pretty pointless exercise because it does nothing to move the argument on.

A good rule of thumb, not just for blogging but for any online activity, is: if it’s not acceptable in the physical world, then it’s not acceptable in the virtual one.

Get Rich Quick Scams

The term “get rich quick scam” is actually an oxymoron. The truth is, with these scams, the last thing that’s going to happen is you getting rich quick. The problem is recognizing these scams. Hopefully, after reading this article, you’ll have a pretty good idea of how to recognize one of these scams when they cross your path.

The best thing about a get rich quick scam is that most are really pretty transparent when all is said and done. Most of the websites that promote these scams have headers that read something like “Turn $20 Into $20,000 In 30 Days” or “Make $30,000 In 30 Days, GUARANTEED!” You know the ones that I’m talking about. They seem to be all over the Internet.

Well, over the course of the 4 years plus that I have been online, I have tested out over 150 of these get rich quick scams. Of all the ones I tried, only one made me any money at all and that was $28 that took me 5 months to earn. The sad part was that many of the programs actually turned out to be fraudulent altogether. They would take off with your money and you’d never hear from them again no matter how many times you emailed them.

Then there are the get rich quick scams that get sent to your email box. You know the ones that I’m talking about. Some lady out in Nigeria just lost her dear husband and she wants you to help her get all this money. In helping her, she’ll send you something like $10 million or some insane amount. All you have to do is give this person your personal bank account information and in 24 hours you’ll be a millionaire. I sometimes wonder about the person’s intelligence who actually falls for something like this.

Get rich quick scams come in all shapes and sizes, which is what makes spotting them all so hard. So the easiest way to spot one is to simply ask yourself one question. “Does this sound too good to be true?” If the answer to this question is a resounding “YES!” then most likely the “opportunity” in question is a scam and should be avoided at all costs.

If by some chance you stumble upon one of these scams and get taken in, don’t just chalk it up to a bad experience. The only way to stop these scams is to report them. So go to the BBB and file a complaint against the company. If more people were to do this, these companies would be shut down quickly and there wouldn’t be as many scams going around. Problem is, most people are just too lazy to do anything about it.

I’ve long stopped falling for these scams and now enjoy making a comfortable living from home with my own business. If you want to actually earn an honest income at home and not have to worry about being taken in, check out the site in my signature.

You don’t have to go on being a victim.

Fun Foods - Snow Cones

Who can resist an icy, frosty cold beverage on a hot day? There is nothing like a freezing cold, multi-flavored concoction such as a snow cone to bring cheer to your heart and a smile to your face on a sweltering day. So many flavor selections to make, so many varied combinations of syrups from which to choose. Where do you start? How daring do you want to be?

The basic snow cone is a sweet treat made with tightly packed, shaved ice flavored with one or more vividly colored, sugary syrups, generally fruit-flavored. One of many variations, the “stuffed” snow cone has a layer of soft-serve vanilla ice cream in the middle. Some snow cones need a spoon for them to be consumed, while others are meant to be held like an ice cream cone.

The snow cone is a remainder from the Roman Empire (27 BCE to CE 395). Loads of snow were lugged down the mountain tops to the city. Syrup was added to scooped snow to make possibly the world’s first frozen dessert. Enter the snow cone or snow ball.

Skipping approximately 1,500 years, we arrive at the snow cone’s next milestone. At that time, hand tools, such as hand-held ice shavers, were designed specifically to produce snow balls. By the late 1800s, numerous manufacturers were turning out ice shavers having the ability to shave a block of ice into soft, fluffy “snow.” It wasn’t until the 1920s that this icy treat became popular in locales such as New Orleans.

In 1919, at the State Fair of Texas, an enthusiastic crowd was able to buy handmade snow cones from Samuel Bert of Dallas. By 1920, he had invented a snow cone-making machine. He continued selling his snow cones there, plus selling his machines worldwide, until his death in 1984.

The first known, patented motorized ice block shaver to produce New Orleans-style shaved ice, was, in 1934, created by inventor Ernest Hansen of New Orleans, Louisiana. This machine motivated him to invent a more refined and hygienic version of the already popular Italian ice sold by pushcart vendors in New Orleans. Wife Mary concocted several flavors of fresh syrups to be used in flavoring Hansen’s finely shaved artificial “snow.” Snow balls have been a popular dessert in New Orleans ever since.

Snow balls have gained popularity worldwide, but outside of New Orleans they are sometimes known as snow cones.

Names and Variations:

Snow cones produced in the United States are generally produced in the shape of a ball. However, in Puerto Rico, they are called piraqua, as they were formed in the shape of a pyramid. The majority of Puerto Rican snow cone peddlers sell their wares out of their cars.

Mexicans and those living in the adjoining Texas border area eat raspados (raspas for short). The word raspar means “scrape;” the name raspado can be translated into English as “scraped ice.”

A favorite Hawaiian treat is called shaved ice and i sold in cone-shaped paper cups. The “Rainbow,” a favorite flavor, is made with three flavors that are usually chosen for their color and aesthetics rather than for the flavor compatibility. (Beauty vs. taste? Is something backwards here?) Hawaiian ice is ordinarily shaved to a finer texture than is found with other snow cones so that the syrup colors are retained longer and more intensely, again striving for an improved presentation. As mentioned at the top of this article, it is not uncommon to find a scoop of vanilla ice cream at the bottom of the paper cup.

On occasion, a snow cone fan can find a small gum ball at the bottom of the paper cone.

Sometimes, snow cones are confused with Italian ices or water ices. However, water ice purists insist that snow cones must be flavored after production, at the point of sale, while flavor is added to water ices as the ice itself is being made. Italian ice is a favorite in New York City. Although it is generally sold in Pizzerias or Italian Ice Shops, street vendors throughout the city peddle this sweet treat all over the city.

Nonetheless, southwest of New York City sits Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with its specialty, water ice, which is made of combining flavorings (usually fruit juices or coffee and chocolate). A variation on this frozen dessert is gelato, popular across the United States. Gelato layers water ice and frozen yogurt, frozen custard, or soft-serve ice cream, into a parfait.

Snow cones and water ices should not be confused with one another; snow cones have a harder consistency and are sometimes crunchy, while water ices have a more pronounced smoothness and a wetter consistency.

There is a vast number of syrup flavorings, which can be combined for some exceptionally unusual mixtures. There are many standard flavors for the timid while, on the other hand, there are flavors that, when put together in one treat, may grow hair on your fingernails.

Here is a sampling of the myriad flavorings available.

For the faint of heart:

  • Banana Bubble Gum
  • Blueberry
  • Blue Raspberry
  • Butterscotch
  • Cherry Cola
  • Coconut
  • Grape
  • Guava
  • Lemonade
  • Peanut Butter
  • Peppermint
  • Root Beer
  • Spearmint
  • Strawberry
  • Watermelon

For those who dare to be different:

  • Amaretto
  • Anisette
  • Cranberry
  • -

  • Cream Cheese
  • Crème de Menthe
  • Dill Pickle
  • Egg Custard
  • Leche
  • Mai Tai
  • Maple
  • Orchid
  • Pineapple
  • Pink Champagne
  • Tamarind
  • Vanilla Malt

Playstation 3 “Flow” Game Review

(>) Start

I will be reviewing the downloadable game Flow available from the Playstation 3 website. Flow is one of the best Playstation 3 downloadable games that is currently available through the Playstation 3 online store service.

(X) Reviews

Flow : 10/10

My Overview

Flow is certainly the most innovative game on the market today. Finally, a title to take full advantage of the Saxxis controller, and perfectly!

Gameplay is simple, satisfying, and beautiful. The graphics are flawless, pure 1080i delight, and the detail is meticulously entrancing.

At the most abstract level, the game is Pac-Man 2007, as you gobble up pretty little power pellets, as well as your enemies. The big difference (besides the completely different graphical elements) is that in Flow, you evolve your creature as you progress.

Progression through levels is achieved via diving deeper and deeper into a 3 dimensional abyss. The deeper you get, the more difficult the enemies become.

Once you finish a set of levels as one particular species of creature, you reach an egg for the next creature. It is important to note that, at this point only, the game automatically saves so that the next time that you play, you can choose to play as the new species, or any other previous species that you had gotten as deep with.

My Complaints

It’s not obvious as to what you should do when you begin. A respect for Flow’s simplicity and the awe of discovery fade quickly when you just want to go to bed, can’t figure out how to save the game, and become concerned about loosing your last hour’s worth of gameplay.

It turns out that if you quit before you complete a set of levels, you will have to start from the beginning with that creature.

Do not let this slow you from getting the game, it’s uniqueness and detailed beauty far outweigh this one complaint.

Also, finishing any particular level only takes about fifteen minutes to one half hour to complete.

My Tip

To change creatures during gameplay (After you have gotten through the first creature) press start, then find the blue-up, ring to choose a different creature.

My Rating

10/10

Change - Just Do It!

“Outsourcing,” even in the most simple examples — like that of sending an e-mail campaign by a third party — requires alignment just as any other business activity. In this business case the supplier of the e-mail campaign had just changed their approach. Since last month it is no longer “possible” to send html-e-mail that take more than X. kbyte. The chat feature worked fine and from “Jim” I learned that newsletters are now bounded to a content limit. But he made an exception…

Whatever the reason was for this change, the approach to handle the change is quite clear: Just do it and wait for the consequences. This is the same strategy that Google uses for the You-Tube video content: just allow every content uncertain of copyrights and wait what happens. The difference is that the you-tube case is operational and the e-mail campaign directive concerns a change of tactics, but the idea is the same.

Exceptions are a pain. So in order to gain more efficiency organization will try to create standards to which clients will “have to comply” to. Of course there is always the possibility to complain and those individual cases will be handled case-wise. To approve too many exception will make that the new standard will loose credibility, but a limited set of exceptions can be handled and will not weaken the main standard. There are always some exceptions, they will not disorganize your business.

Another advantage if this method is that the information value of the exception. If clients do not massively complain about the new rule, than the dropped feature wasn’t too highly valued anyway. If clients do complain than there is a problem. A simple test (the launch of a balloon) amongst a client panel will clear this issue.

In this way you have managed your clients into a new direction. And this pattern is equally powerful to handle internal clients in accepting a change. The main recipe for this approach is: just do it. This is possible if the impact of the change is (below) average. In that case: put on your shoes and go and see where the resistance takes a certain volume so that you have to reconsider your tactics. In many other cases: Well begun is half done.

Different Types of Poker Games

Most everyone is familiar with Texas Hold’em, which has become commonly referred to as the Cadillac of Poker, thanks to it’s widespread popularity on television programs. From regularly scheduled programs such as the World Poker Tour to the televised final table match of the World Series of Poker, most everyone has become familiar with how to play Texas Hold’em, particularly the No Limit variety.

However, Texas Hold’em is not the only version of poker, and until recently it was not even the most popular version of the game. There are many different types of poker that can be played. Here is a brief look at the different options that are available in card rooms around the world.

Five Card Draw Poker

Five Card Draw Poker is the traditional favorite when it comes to playing poker at home. The game is typically played with up to five players. Betting in five card draw consists of an initial ante plus two additional betting rounds. Each player is dealt five cards face down, and may discard/replace as many (or all) of the cards as they wish during the initial betting round.

Omaha Poker

The Omaha version of poker is played with up to ten players. Each player is dealt four cards face down. After four rounds of betting, there are five community cards face up on the table, which are shared by all players. The player combines any two (of the four) cards from their hand with the community cards to make the best possible poker hand.

Omaha Hi/Lo Poker

There is also a version of Omaha poker called Hi/Lo. In this version, a player can also win with a “lo/low” hand by holding complete garbage, with cards no higher than 8. For example, a player holding A, 2, 3, 4, 6 would likely have a lo hand and win the pot. If another player also had the high hand (for example, two pair), the pot would be split between them.

Seven Card Stud Poker

Seven Card Stud is another popular variation of poker. Seven Card Stud is usually played with up to eight people. The game carries an initial ante, followed by five rounds of betting. There are no community cards in Seven Card Stud. Each player is dealt a total of seven cards, with three being face down so that only the player can see, and the remaining four being dealt face up so that everyone can see. Players use any five of the seven cards they hold to make the best possible poker hand. There is also a hi/lo version of the game.

There are a number of other poker variations that are worth getting to know. Caribbean Stud Poker, Razz Poker, 3-Card Poker and Pineapple make just a few. There are many poker variations aside from Texas Hold’em, each requiring a different strategy to be successful in the game. The many different poker variations provide ample opportunities for a lifetime of exploring the game without ever getting bored.

Bodybuilding - A Complete Discipline

Bodybuilding has been around since 1880, but grew to be a competitive sport around 1930. Eugen Sandow is known as one of the pioneer of Modern Bodybuilding. He was a bodybuilder who took his workouts very seriously and made a science out of bodybuilding. He then later competed in tournaments against other men to display their strength. He is also known to have invented the first dumbbells and exercise machines. Sandow his said to be the inventor of the formula for the ideal physique based upon his own body’s criterias.

The most prestigious body building competition today is Mr. Olympia. It started in 1965. The winner receives a bronze statue of Sandow. Serious bodybuilders from all over the world compete in this much publicized event. This competition has taken an expansion in 1980 when they introduced the feminine part of it with Ms. Olympia contests in 1980. Every year, limits are pushed back as the quest for the best and strongest bodies continues.

Rules and regulations for competition bodybuilding are getting tighter every year. Drugs and illicit substances are being controlled and anyone caught using them in a competition is automatically disqualified. Bodybuilding is becoming more and more a discipline of endurance and health. During bodybuilding competitions, the same strict testing as the ones use during the Olympics is used.
Severe criteria are applied in judging bodybuilding competition. The size and shape of muscles are a very important part of the judging process. The size should be exceptional and the shape should be appealing. Muscles that are well defined and good looking will get a good rating from the judges.

Anyone interested in engaging in serious bodybuilding should always consult their physician first. Never exercising beyond one’s physical tolerance is a must. Patience is a must as it takes long time to build the body you want. After a certain point though, the rewards will start to poor in and it gets easier as the muscle mass is increasing.

A particular situation is for teenagers to start bodybuilding. When starting a bodybuilding program, a teenager must respect his own growing needs and never exert beyond physical tiredness. Teen bodybuilders should only train 3 to 5 days per week. The body needs to rest because it is still growing. The caloric intake should be calculated according to the growing needs of the teenager body plus the needs form the bodybuilding program.

When engaging in bodybuilding, a teenager should know that the rate of growth of his muscle can be less than one of an adult bodybuilder. It is recommended to train each part of the body only 1 time per week. Compound exercises such as bench pressing, squats, shoulder press, rowing, and deadlights will yield the best benefits. The key to a successful bodybuilding program for teenagers is to balance volume and intensity. The higher the volume, the lower the intensity should be. If one is working at a high intensity level, then the volume should decrease.

Bodybuilding requires patience and commitment for anyone to see tangible results. After a certain point though, the results can be impressive and daily compliments are a guaranteed reward.

Planning Your Dream Wedding in Mexico

Honestly, I am not sure what made me think I could do this. Well, actually, I have always considered myself a relatively competent and somewhat intelligent person. I am in my thirties with children and a career, I even speak a little Spanish, so how hard could it be to plan a wedding in Mexico?

Apparently, connecting with a wedding coordinator online (my preferred method of communication) is not as easy as it appears. Most of my requests sent through the resorts’ websites went without response. The one (yes, one) who did respond set up a date and time along with a deadline for signing a contract to hold it. Then nothing. I called, I emailed, I even flew down there and tried to meet with her just prior to the deadline… nothing. I started to panic. I had let all our family and friends know our plans in advance since a destination wedding requires more preparation.

Finally, I sent an email to the corporate headquarters here in the U.S. for a resort where I really wanted to have our wedding. They put me in touch with their wedding coordinator at the resort in Cancun, who has been a blessing. She asked questions, then I asked questions and emailed pictures I had found online of things I wanted like menus, flowers and cake. She has really gone above and beyond to give me everything I want, exactly how I want it for this very important day.

When planning a wedding in Mexico, getting in touch with the proper person is key. The right person will make your dream wedding come true. Find someone who is genuinely interested in your wedding day planning.

Managing Between The Process and The Output

One of the main roles of a judge in a trial is to defend the (fair) process. The judge has only a minor influence in the outcome (or result) of every trial…
Business management is much more output driven. This is because people — most of the time — know WHAT they want and this knowledge is a bases to guide the management process. Specification of the output is the main ingredient in project management, but also for operational management.

Yet it is not always clear how this output should look like. Take for example a pure innovative activity in which a new concept should be elaborated unlike everything currently existing. In such a case it is difficult to guide the output because its form is still uncertain. Such cases require a process approach. A prototype fits such a practice; in a few recurring steps the output will be designed and this will be communicated to different stakeholders in the organization. The number of interactions is important, the amount of feedback, the number of changes or enhancements, the number of experts that have given an opinion on the matter… all kinds of elements that guide the (management) process but have little to do with the output or the result.

The role of a manager is to offer some security. A project manager should guide the process from an abstract concept to a specific end-result. An operational manager should work towards an operational target from an initial budget (of the same target).

But both managers should concentrate on one management approach. The manager should focus either on the process or on the specification of the result, but not on both at the same time. Doing so will leave the individual team member to choose the best approach. Both approaches in one method will suffocate the project or the team with too many rules and directives which are hard to align.

If you focus on the process you should set process targets and use process-indicators, if you manage by objectives you should set these objects clearly. By doing both you will need a third task to control whether the two are in line.

In a normal business approach (launching a new product) the result targets are set first and as a next (fine-tuning) step the process is evaluated.
