Georgia school officials defend football coach after prayer complaint

Published August 30, 2012

Associated Press

  • School officials rally around Ridgeland High School football coach.MyFoxAtlanta.com

Officials at a northwest Georgia high school are defending its football team's practice of having student-led prayers and church-held meals before games.

Walker County Superintendent Damon Raines said at a Wednesday news conference that Ridgeland High School isn't violating the First Amendment rights of the players and that its football team will continue having the prayers and meals.

The Chattanooga Times Free Press reports that the Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation accused football coach Mark Mariakis of taking athletes to church where a Christian message was preached, of leading postgame prayers and pressuring team members to attend a Christian football camp, along with other accusations.

Raines said he believes the coach is only using motivational speeches to encourage the athletes to display upstanding character on and off the field.

Should the Apollo moon landing site be a National Historic Landmark?

The passing of Neil Armstrong, the first human to set foot on the moon, could energize the movement to preserve Tranquility Base and the NASA artifacts that remain there.?

By Leonard David,?SPACE.com / August 29, 2012

On July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon. Armstrong is pictured here, shortly after collecting a sample of lunar dust and rocks. At his feet is the handle for the sample collection tool.

The passing of famed astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon and commander of Apollo 11, may strengthen the movement to designate the Tranquility Base lunar landing site as a National Historic Landmark.

The field of space heritage preservation is gaining momentum, and a recently authored bill aims protect the Apollo 11?s Eagle lunar lander touchdown site and all the artifacts that astronauts?Neil Armstrong?and Buzz Aldrin left behind on the lunar surface.

A leading champion of the?moon landing site preservation?campaign is Beth O?Leary, an associate professor of anthropology in New Mexico State University?s College of Arts and Sciences. ?I had one sad thought that with his passing, people may consider the site on the moon more ?historic,?" she told SPACE.com.

O?Leary and Chico State University archaeology professor Lisa Westwood worked with California Congressman Dan Lungren and his staff to write the bill. [Photos: Neil Armstrong Remembered]

Cultural material

There?s a total of 190 tons of cultural material on the moon, O'Leary said, and there are about 106 artifacts that are specific to the?Apollo 11?site. The effort under way is to preserve the significant technological objects that got Armstrong and Aldrin to the moon for that historic flight.

California and New Mexico have already listed Tranquility Base on their state historic registers. The next step would be the National Historic Landmark designation.

Once a property is designated a National Historic Landmark, it can be nominated for inclusion on the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization?s (UNESCO) World Heritage List. [New Photos of Apollo Moon Landing Sittes]

Westwood and O?Leary also have been working with the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS), the World Heritage List?s advisory body, over the last three years to make the case for the Apollo sites to be added to this list.

?Sites on the list now include Chaco Canyon, the Pyramids at Giza, Stonehenge,? O?Leary said in a press statement, ?so there are many sites on the Earth that are recognized by this group of people. Putting the first lunar landing on the list means we recognize this is an achievement for humanity.?

Tangible memory

?The passing of an American hero, Neil Armstrong, saddened the world," Westwood said. "It also brings to light the importance of preserving Apollo sites on the moon, because the human experience on the lunar surface was realized by only 12 humans ? a staggeringly slim percentage of humankind.? Westwood said that these brave astronauts are only with us for a brief period of time, and a generation from now, they will have passed on, no longer able to speak to their experiences and the historical significance of their achievement.

?By preserving the sites they left behind on?the moon, we are, in a sense, preserving not only the historical event of the first lunar landing, but the tangible memory of the Apollo astronauts,? Westwood said.

Legal gray area

?Our ideas on lunar preservation were presented by our ICOMOS ?caseworker? ? for lack of a better word ? in Helsinki a month ago,? O?Leary said. She and Westwood are working on getting the Tranquility Base Act in front of Congress to secure National Historic Landmark status; co-sponsors for Lundgren?s bill are still needed.

Objects at Tranquility Base are in a legal gray area. O?Leary said. By treaty, however, countries own the property they have placed on the moon, but no one can own the lunar surface.

Increased risk of prematurity and low birth weight in babies born after three or more abortions

ScienceDaily (Aug. 28, 2012) ? One of the largest studies to look at the effect of induced abortions on a subsequent first birth has found that women who have had three or more abortions have a higher risk of some adverse birth outcomes, such as delivering a baby prematurely and with a low birth weight.

The research, which is published online in Europe's leading reproductive medicine journal Human Reproduction Aug. 29, found that among 300,858 Finnish mothers, 31,083 (10.3%) had had one induced abortion between 1996-2008, 4,417 (1.5%) had two, and 942 (0.3%) had three or more induced abortions before a first birth (excluding twins and triplets). Those who had had three or more induced abortions had a small, but statistically significant increased risk of having a baby with very low birth weight (less than 1500g), low birth weight (less than 2500g), or of a preterm birth (before 37 weeks), or very preterm birth (before 28 weeks), compared to women who had had no abortions. There was a slightly increased risk of a very preterm birth for women who had had two induced abortions.

Dr Reija Klemetti, an associate professor and senior researcher in public health at the National Institute for Health and Welfare in Helsinki, Finland, who led the research, said: "Our results suggest that induced abortions before the first birth, particularly three or more abortions, are associated with a marginally increased risk during the first birth. However, the increased risk is very small, particularly after only one or even two abortions, and women should not be alarmed by our findings."

Most of the induced abortions (88%) were surgically performed and nearly all (91%) were performed before 12 weeks gestation. The researchers adjusted their findings to take account of various factors that could affect birth outcomes, such as social background, marital status, age, smoking, previous ectopic pregnancies and miscarriages. Multiple births (twins and triplets) were excluded.

The risk of having a baby born very preterm appeared to increase slightly with each induced abortion, but only the risk from two abortions or more was statistically significant.

"To put these risks into perspective, for every 1000 women, three who have had no abortion will have a baby born under 28 weeks," said Dr Klemetti. "This rises to four women among those who have had one abortion, six women who have had two abortions, and 11 women who have had three or more."

Among women who had had three or more abortions, there was a statistically significant increased risk of a third (35%) of having a baby born preterm (before 37 weeks), a two-fold (225%) increased risk of very low birth weight, and a two-fifths (43%) increased risk of low birth weight.

The study also showed a small increased risk of a baby's death around the time of birth. However, the numbers for this finding were very low (1498 births or five per 1000 babies) and so should be treated with caution. In addition, the authors say they might not have been able to fully adjust for all the factors that could affect this result and perinatal deaths are sensitive to social factors such as poverty.

"Our study is the first large study to look at a broad set of perinatal outcomes and to control, at least partly, for the most important confounding factors such as smoking and socioeconomic position," said Dr Klemetti. "However, it is important to say that even though we adjusted for these factors, and also ectopic pregnancies and miscarriages, there might be some confounding for social class that we could not control for. Most probably, this may be related to women's (or some of these women's) way of life, life habits, and sexual and reproductive health.

"Furthermore, this is an observational study and, however large and well-controlled, it only shows there is a link between abortion and some adverse birth outcomes -- it cannot prove that abortions are the cause.

"Finland has one of the lowest rates of induced abortion in Europe*, but even so, a large number are carried out every year. In addition, Finland has good quality abortion and maternity care, and in other contexts, particularly in poorer countries, the situation may be different. For these reasons, even a very small increase in the risk of poor birth outcomes could have significant health implications, as preterm births and low birth weight can have serious, adverse effects on the health and well-being of both babies and mothers.

"We suggest that the potential for increased risks for subsequent births should be included in sex education, especially as there are other, good reasons to avoid induced abortions. Health professionals should also be informed about the potential risks of repeat abortions."

* In 2011 there were 10,108 induced abortions in Finland, which translates to 8.7 per 1000 women aged between 15-49.

Competition under way at Paralympics

Eleven days of top-class sport for athletes with disabilities got under way on Thursday on the first full day of the London Paralympics, with 28 gold medals up for grabs, among them cycling and swimming.

At the Velodrome on the Olympic Park in east London, five medals were to be contested in the men's and women's individual pursuit, while there were 15 finals at the Aquatics Centre after a day of swimming heats.

Judo and powerlifting also had finals but shooting was set to provide the first gold, with Britain's Di Coates -- aiming for her fourth Paralympic gold in eight Games -- favourite in the women's 10m standing air rifle.

The day's programme also includes heats in archery, equestrian, goalball, table tennis, sitting volleyball and wheelchair basketball.

Britain's Nyree Kindred set a new Paralympic record in the second heat of the women's 100m backstroke S6 in 1min 27.96secs in a race that included the world record holder Mirjam de Koning-Peper, of the Netherlands.

Kindred, 31, a veteran of three previous Games, won the event at Athens in 2004. The event's final takes place on Thursday evening.

Among the other top swimmers beginning their gold hunt were Jessica Long of the United States and South Africa's Natalie du Toit, who is competing in seven events before retiring from the sport she has dominated for the last decade.

Multiple-medallist Long is defending her 100m butterfly S8 title from Beijing, while Du Toit is out to grab gold again in the S9 race over the same distance.

Britain's world record holder in the men's 100m backstroke S7, Jonathan Fox, was hoping to improve on his silver behind the USA's Lantz Lamback in Beijing.

In track cycling, Australia's women were aiming to stamp their authority on the individual pursuit but will face a strong challenge from the United States and the Netherlands.

But the host nation is out to emulate their Olympic counterparts, after they dominated the track cycling, winning seven of the 10 golds available, spurred on by victory in the men's time-trial for Tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins.

Hopes are riding on seven-time Paralympic champion Sarah Storey -- who switched to cycling in 2008 and won two gold after winning five swimming titles -- to get the team off to a good start in the C5 3km individual pursuit.

"It's a big bonus for us that she (Storey) is our first rider on track because we saw in the Olympics that that momentum, from Bradley Wiggins' win, is all-important to the squad," said British para-cycling lead coach Chris Furber.

"That will be great for us to get her in action on day one in arguably her strongest event."

Queen Elizabeth II officially opened the Games at a showpiece ceremony on Wednesday involving more than 3,000 volunteer and professional performers, many of them with a disability, combining music, dance and aerial acrobatics.

British scientist Stephen Hawking, described by organisers as "the most famous disabled person anywhere on the planet", narrated parts of the ceremony, which was aimed at challenging perceptions about disability and changing attitudes.

A peak audience of 11.2 million watched the ceremony in Britain, host broadcaster Channel 4 said, four times as many as those who watched the equivalent in Beijing four years ago.

Ghana Business News ? Experts call for attractive tax laws

You Are Here: Home ? General News, Second Lead ? Experts call for attractive tax laws

Page last updated at Thursday, August 30, 2012 8:08 AM //

The 2012 Chartered Institute of Taxation, Ghana (CITG) Annual Conference to create awareness on tax policies and compliance, opened in Accra on Wednesday with a call on policy makers to make tax laws attractive for effective compliance.

Professor Riel C.D. Franzsen, Director of the African Tax Institute, Department of Economics, University of Pretoria, South Africa, who made the call, said although no one liked taxes they were important tool for national development.

He said taxes were necessary both to finance desired public spending in a non-inflationary way and also to ensure that the burden of paying for such spending was fairly distributed.

??While necessary, taxes impose real costs on society and good tax policy sought to minimize those costs,? he added.

The three-day conference forms part of the CITG?s awareness drive in the field of taxation and also as a? platform for interactions between tax administrators, taxpayers, the Institute, tax practitioners, students and the public.

Over 300 delegates from Ghana, Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Mali, Liberia, Sierra Leone, La Cote d? Ivoire, Burkina Faso and Niger are attending the conference under the theme: ?Taxation and National Development: Challenges and Perspectives.?

Prof? Franzsen said tax policies must translate into good laws which could be administrated in practice, adding that complexity of laws and regulations increased compliance cost and led to evasion.

That, he said, could be achieved through creating the appropriate environments such as political, policy, legal, institutional and administrative environment.

He said institutional structures needed to be strengthened to collate good data, proper processes, and efficient collection of due taxes and provision of taxpayer support services.

?We must also put in place appropriate penalty structures to reduce evasion as well as appropriate relief and enforcement mechanism and support to ensure compliance,? he said.

On taxpayers, the Professor said taxpayers? morality, compliance behaviour, perceptions or voluntary compliance would depend on efficiency and efficacy of government services ? whether revenue was spent appropriately in accountable manner among the citizenry and levels of trust in the administration of the policy.

Prof. Franzsen mentioned complexity of tax system, taxpayer?s trust/confidence, and perceptions on the fairness of the system, social setting and norms, effective administration and enforcement as factors impacting on compliance.

Mr Lee Ocran, Minister for Education, in a speech read for him, said the conference was a suitable platform where tax experts met to discuss issues and stressed the need to encourage such meetings to improve tax compliance in the sub region.

He urged CITG to institute schemes that would accelerate growth while increasing tax revenue.

The Minister announced that the Chartered Institute of Taxation Bill would soon be laid in Parliament and expressed the hope that when passed it would help improve compliance level in the country.

Mr Felix Ahima-Adonteng, President of CITG, said the fora would enable delegates to discuss, share ideas, learn new ways and add improved and innovative dimensions to doing old things, a process that should benefit the taxpayer, the tax collector and the tax adviser.

He, therefore, urged the public to cultivate the habit of paying their taxes to empower government to improve lives of the citizenry.

Obama Recovery an 'Insult to Recoveries' Says McConnell

If Tuesday night at the Republican National Convention showcased many of the new faces of the Republican Party - including Mia Love, the Utah congressional candidate, and Ted Cruz, the Texas Senate candidate - today will bring some of the GOP old guard clearly into public view, featuring a slew of sitting senators and former members of the Bush administration.

But the old hands might bring fresh criticism of President Obama onto the stage. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, for instance, is the lead-off speaker during prime time today and will unleash a barrage of criticisms and one-liners on Obama, attacking what he sees as failed policies, according to excerpts obtained by ABC News.

"We're here this week for the simple reason that our nation is in desperate need of leadership," the 27-year Kentucky senator will say, according to the excerpt. "And we believe Mitt Romney is the man for the moment."

McConnell, 70, has been a thorn in the side of the White House. With few exceptions, he kept Republicans in the Senate united against the White House even when Democrats controlled the House and had a nearly filibuster-proof majority during the first two years of the Obama administration.

It was McConnell who famously said in 2010 that his party's singular focus would be to make Obama a one-term president.

"As we meet here tonight, America is suffering through an economic calamity of truly historic dimensions," McConnell will say. "Some are calling it the slowest recovery in our nation's entire 236-year history. To call this a recovery is an insult to recoveries."

The pointed speech will go on from there to criticize the president's penchant for playing golf on the weekend, a subject on which GOP Ohio Gov. John Kasich also touched Tuesday.

"For four years, Barack Obama has been running from the nation's problems," McConnell will say. "He hasn't been working to earn re-election. He's been working to earn a spot on the PGA tour."

And he'll make fun of a string of recent interviews the president has given to celebrity and entertainment magazines while avoiding the White House press corps.

"We know what the president's got on his iPod, but we don't know what he plans to do about a looming tax hike that could trigger yet another serious recession that would result in even more Americans losing their jobs. Ladies and Gentlemen: America cannot afford another four years of this."

Back on policy, McConnell, alluding to the "We built this" theme of the convention, will repeat his argument that the president has a sort of European socialism in mind for America.

"What this administration has in mind for America isn't a renewal, it's a great leveling out," he'll say, pointing to debt and entitlement problems in Europe.

"It wants the kind of government-imposed equality that in a single generation transformed Western Europe from a place where for centuries high achievement and discovery and innovation were celebrated and prized, to a place where they have elections about whether people should have to work. Where they make promises they can't keep and write checks they can't cash."

Dozens feared drowned off Libya-Egypt coast

Egypt on Monday launched search and rescue operations with the help of Libyan coastal authorities after dozens of people were feared drowned when their boat capsized, officials said.

Three bodies were recovered and five people plucked alive from the Mediterranean near the maritime border between the two countries, Egyptian security officials said, adding that Libya had alerted Egypt of the disaster.

The search for survivors was continuing in the Burdi area, the officials in Cairo said.

In Libya, the state news agency Lana reported that the boat was carrying around 40 illegal migrants and capsized off Libya's east coast near the border with Egypt, with only one passenger surviving the tragedy.

"All the migrants who were on board died, except for one person who survived and was able to alert local authorities and inform them of the tragedy," Lana said, quoting a local official.

It was not immediately clear who the passengers of the boat were but they are widely believed to be asylum seekers trying to get to Europe in search of jobs and a better life.

Lana did not give the nationalities of the passengers but said the boat sunk some three kilometres (almost two miles) off the Libya coast.

In April last year, scores of people went missing at sea after a tiny boat carrying more than 200 African migrants fleeing unrest-hit Libya capsized in the night in three-metre-high waves.

Libya has been traditionally a launchpad for African refugees and migrants seeking to make an illegal run across the sea to Europe, with many landing in Italy.

Migrants and refugees often travel in rickety and overcrowded wooden fishing boats and there have been several accidents at sea.

Police: arrested miners say beaten in custody

JOHANNESBURG (AP) ? South Africa's police directorate of complaints says it is investigating charges that more than 150 arrested striking miners have been beaten in police custody.

The news comes as President Jacob Zuma is being grilled by his African National Congress executive over the police shootings of 112 striking miners including 34 who died at Lonmin PLC platinum mine on Aug. 16. More than 250 arrested miners face charges from murder to public violence.

Directorate spokesman Moses Dlamini said miners allege they were beaten with batons and fists and kicked in efforts to get the names of miners involved in the killings of two police officers hacked to death in violence before the shootings.

Dlamini refused to comment on local reports that autopsies show most miners killed were shot in the back.

Midlife fitness delays chronic disease ? The Chart - CNN.com Blogs

We all know that exercise and fitness are key components to healthy living. Now new research is adding further proof that it will increase your quality of life.

The study, published in this week?s Archive of Internal Medicine, finds that being fit in the middle of your life not only delays the onset of chronic diseases later in life, but also shortens the duration?of disease.

?We?ve known for years that exercise is good for you, but what?s not been clear is to what extent the health benefits persist across a lifespan,? said study author Dr. Jarrett Berry, associate professor of medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.

Berry and his co-authors surveyed 18,670 patients, from the Cooper Center Longitudinal Study, one of the largest patient databases in the world looking at fitness indicators. The Cooper Center began collecting patient information in 1970, and now has more than 100,000 patients enrolled in its database.

The study selected patients who were 65 years or older as of January 1, 1999, and measured their fitness level by having them walk on a treadmill. The patients were then organized by sex, age, and divided into five different fitness levels ranging from very low to very high.

For the next 25 years, study authors followed up on their fitness levels and recorded any chronic disease.

?It?s not just heart disease and just cancer ? it?s all kinds of chronic diseases, ? said Berry.

Patients' Medicare records were assessed for the following conditions: Congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, stroke, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, Alzheimer?s, and colon or lung cancer.

When looking at men, the incidences of chronic disease was reduced by 45% between the group with the highest fitness levels, and those with the lowest. For women, the difference between the two groups was 43%.

Not only were people with higher fitness levels less likely to have chronic diseases, but they were also able to delay the disease and minimize how long they had it.

During the course of the study, 2,406 patients died. Out of the 711 people in the fittest group, only 9.5% of them had four or more chronic diseases in the last 5 years of their life. That percentage almost doubled to 18.3% when looking at the least fit group.

In other words, Berry explained, ?Individuals who had high fitness spent less of the last 5 years with chronic disease."

Dr. Diane Beld, who is not associated with the study, said, ?This study seems to support, that through fitness people might delay morbidity ? may not just live longer, but live longer with less chronic disease.?

Beld, who is the associate director for the Prevention and Population Sciences Program at National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, wrote a commentary on the study and warned that the patients from the CCLS may not be the most representative of the country, as 98% of them were white and well-educated.

?More data in other population groups, would be good,? said Beld. ?That would help for better reflection of the general population.?

She also warned that fitness wasn?t just a matter of exercise but also genetics.

Despite these limitations, though, Beld emphasized that none of the considerations?should take away from the importance of this study.

"This is just another piece of evidence that being physically fit, is good at preventing chronic disease," said Beld.

Staging Your Home to Sell - Madison Real Estate Cafe

While most homeowners are aware that making simple repairs and upgrades are an essential part of getting their home sold, many overlook the important step of staging their home. Through the staging process, you add the little ?extras? that make your house more appealing and welcoming to potential buyers. Staging also involves taking the steps necessary to allow the potential buyer to visualize himself living in the house and making it his home. By keeping these simple staging tips in mind, you will achieve these goals while also increasing your chances of getting your home sold quickly and at a price that will make you happy.

Make it Open and Airy

The first step to staging your home is to make it look open, clean and spacious. To do this, you will first need to remove any clutter from your home. Remember, things that are not clutter to you may appear like clutter to other people. This includes things like extra books and magazines, knick-knacks, collectables and children?s toys. You may also need to remove a few pieces of furniture so the house doesn?t seem cramped and too small to enjoy. If you do not already have another place ready for you to move into, you may need to rent some storage space in order to clear out your house and make it more attractive to potential buyers.

Appeal to the Senses

?When staging a home, you also need to think of ways to engage all five of the potential buyer?s senses,? states Josh Anderson, Nashville Realtor. The more you can appeal to all of these senses, the more fondly the buyer will remember your home. Baking chocolate chip cookies and setting them out for the potential buyer to enjoy is one great way to engage the senses of smell and taste. Not only are chocolate chip cookies tasty to eat and enjoyable to smell, but the smell and taste will create the sense of home that you are trying to create. Setting out flowers in vases, opening windows to allow the sun to shine in and carefully placing throw pillows in the perfect location are other ways to stage your home for sale.

Take Yourself Out of the Equation

When tidying and decorating your home in preparation for a viewing, you should also remove any personal items that you may have placed throughout the home. Family photos, souvenirs and keepsakes are all things that transform a house into a home. Yet, if you keep your personal items on display, it will make it far more difficult for the potential buyer to visualize anyone other than you living in the home. By removing this obstacle, it will be far easier for the buyer to visualize herself making your home a happy nest for her family.

Maddy Budd's Blog: Hey Louis - Home Brew, Sydney

Louis Moore is a very good friend of mine who lives over in Sydney. He has been over there for a while and is just starting to get settled in. We?Skype?all the time so he can tell me all about the cool things he gets up to over there. I love hearing about what life is like living in a city other than Auckland. I have never even moved house let alone cities. He's a brave kid.

Louis and I like all the same stuff we might as well be one person so this makes him the perfect?contributor?to my blog!

So 'Hey Louis' is basically going to be where my boy Lou will write about all the cool and exciting things he gets up to in Sydney so I can live?vicariously through him.

Home Brew played in Sydney on August 11th at The Factory Theatre - quite a few weeks back now. Show was sick!

There were quite a lot of Kiwis there (as expected) so it made me feel right at home. Also, went with a big group of Kiwis so felt like we were all back in Auckland again.

Was definitely quite different to any of their shows in NZ as the crowd was a little smaller. But if anything just meant the drink lines were a lot shorter - winning.

Show lasted for a good couple of hours and then took a few photos and had a few drinks.

The venue was pretty cool too, about half an hour out of the city in Marrickville.

While they were over they also played in Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane. Was a dope show and I hope to see them back over again soon!

Ready To Grow Your Company Online? Try These Great Internet ...

It may seem relatively easy to jump in with Internet marketing without researching, but it?s vital that you understand the way to do it right. Look through the contents of this article to learn a thing or two.

Complement your online marketing campaign with direct marketing techniques. You could call, email or send a fax to your customers to advertise a special offer. You may find their contact information in the phone book or online, but it?s even better if they have trusted you with their numbers so they will not feel like you are spamming them.

TIP! Always pay attention to your competitors to be successful in an internet business. Check out what other businesses are doing, and see what improvements they need to make.

Hosting an section on your site where people can create reviews is a powerful marketing tool. User reviews can help boost sales as well as increase your online presence.

An Internet marketing trick everyone should know, is to give people the choice of paying wholesale or retail, according to how much they buy. You should still be making a profit on wholesale items you sell but this is a great way to increase the amount of product you sell.

Design your emails so that they create a sense of urgency to act in your customers. These actions could be anything from visiting your website to purchasing a product from you. Since you can track these actions, you will be able to see how effective your marketing efforts are.

TIP! Use tools that can determine how many of your visitors become paying customers so that you can see if your marketing efforts are working. There are a variety of companies that offer website evaluations and reporting.

Never simply give up on an approach if it does not immediately produce the desired results. A niche that did not spark then, might now! The Internet regularly changes every day, and people are always coming up with new ways to utilize it. So don?t spend too much time on the plans and ideas that don?t work, but understand that you may be able to use them later.

If you intend for it to be a marketing tool, your website has to meet your customers? needs. Just providing a one page website that gives your hours and address is not going to attract customers. Provide accurate content that will make you become the authority in the eyes of your customers.

To grab the right domain name, you should be willing to spend some money. It is extremely unlikely you?ll be able to register a domain name exactly matching your company name. You can get any domain name you want if you have over a thousand dollars to spend. You should definitely weigh the pros and cons of this investment.

TIP! If you have free products to offer, get them listed in directories of freebies so more visitors will come to your site. If you are offering just a free e-zine, try submitting it to multiple directories that specialize in free e-zines on the net.

Your website can be marketed as a club or other social gathering instead of a business website. Visitors are more likely to return to your site to keep in touch with other customers, thereby increasing the traffic to your website. It also helps increase engagement with you website visitors, so they?ll view your brand as more than a company. Include graphics that people can copy and use on their sites to advertise yours.

If you want to get the most out of your Internet marketing efforts today, they need to include social media sites. Creating a Facebook page allows your customers to provide you with feedback that you can use and that other customers can see. A good site that will let you have interaction with customers is Twitter.

Avoid believing that Internet marketing is going to replace your day job right from the get go. If you are skilled with Internet marketing, you can consider turning it into a career.

TIP! Always try to keep your content fresh and current on your website. Outdated information will make you look lazy and unprofessional, reducing your chance at a sale.

Consider adding special promotions on every check-out order page. For example, give customers the option to add similar items at a discounted price as a kind of ?thank-you.? You can really thin out your extra merchandise and boost your sales by doing this while simultaneously promoting goodwill from your customer who will feel he or she is getting a really great deal.

Developing a high-quality website is the first step to securing high ranking on search engines? results pages. This must be your first step in starting an online business. The better your site looks and operates, the less work you will have to do going forward.

With most cell phone companies, it is possible to get a second number linked onto a single device. So get that new number today.

TIP! If your potential or current customers seem interested in making donations to charity, offer to give profits to that charity every time they buy. You need to make a point to note this on your site so your customers feel they are contributing.

On all emails you send out add your own personal signature. This is your business card in the cyber-world, and you should spread it far and wide. You can increase traffic and revenue to your site by offering to show people your business via email.

When you look at successful internet marketers, one thing you will find in common is that they carry a high level of enthusiasm for the business. Make sure you communicate your confidence in your products. If you are believable, you will get them as excited as you are. This can boost sales and profits for your business.

Good advertising is the key to growing your business fast. When you market your niche, you will see how much of a success it will create. This is a great tool to reach customers who may not have found you otherwise.

TIP! Stay abreast of what your competition is doing. Make the effort to look at the websites and social networking accounts belonging to your competition.

The most important thing about a website is clear, solid content. You must be able to know how to present information within a short amount of time. This way your customer will be able to make a decision based on your information. Do not use the same content or fill your site up with useless data that does not catch the fancy of the reader.

Try and implement emotional descriptors in your ads as a means of selling more products. If people can attach a product directly to you and your website, your company will began to increase in brand recognition. Utilize language like ?security,? ?relief? and other desirable description words.

It might seem useful to have 256 different social media accounts, but if you let them stagnate, they could become liabilities. No one is interested in visiting a profile that has not been updated in months.

TIP! Give something away. A download of information relevant to your niche can be very effective.

If your website looks and works well it will give you a better online experience. Test ads, graphics, links and your checkout system on a regular basis. Think of your website as a store; help people shop around by providing them with the information they want and making your products easy to find.

Be sure to back up any claims about your business or products that you make with cold hard facts. If you can prove the effectiveness of your product through videos or testimonials, your customers will be more apt to believe in your products and services. Real life videos and images can be a great boost to your Internet marketing campaign.

Internet marketing should lead to further Internet marketing. This is counter intuitive, but the ideas is to build a feedback loop of customers generating business which generates more customers.

TIP! Always use clear, high quality pictures that show off the products your site is selling. Clients generally like to be able to see the product in detail so that they know what they are getting.

Ponder what strategies you will use to promote your site. Excellent sources of advertising your site include blog promotion, posting to them, and hanging around all the social networking sites. There are quite a few ways to drive traffic to your website. The more creative you are, the more likely you are to get their interest.

To increase your income, you must generate more subscribers. You can do a split test, where you try different versions of an ad on different groups, to see which ad is best. Then you choose the best one based on new subscriptions.

A tip that needs consideration when marketing on the Internet is to try different ideas and strategies constantly. This is critical because your income may be slow when you start, and not pick up until you are already established. Hold on to your current job until you start to make considerable profits.

TIP! A 500 error page that is user-friendly is an important tool to have. Visitors will see this page when something goes haywire with your site?s automated database code.

Upload a viral video. Be sure you include appropriate tags, too. Also put a link back to your site within the description of the video. You can significantly increase your website traffic by using this strategy.

Give your business more legitimacy by using your real name along with a title. If you?re a business owner, become CEO. If you are not owner, try finding a good title that shows power and authority. Always sign any emails and articles with your title and your name.

Internet marketing has some characteristics common to most other markets, but also has big differences. For example, what if search engines suddenly stopped using title tags as a means of determining search ranking? If this happened, you?d have to quickly shift your focus to something else, like video marketing.

TIP! To encourage people to visit your site over others, work to offer something unique. Relevant articles will also improve your visibility to the major search engines.

Internet marketing is a very complex topic, but you will learn more as you develop your own strategies. The more you open yourself up to learning, the better your odds are of ultimately profiting in this game. Use every tip to your utmost advantage

Top ally of former Ivorian president arrested in Ghana

ABIDJAN (Reuters) - Ghana has arrested a top ally of Ivory Coast's former President Laurent Gbagbo after weeks of deadly attacks on Ivorian police and military installations, officials from the two neighboring West African countries said on Saturday.

Gbagbo is awaiting trial at the International Criminal Court in The Hague on charges of crimes against humanity committed during a brief 2011 civil war.

Justin Kone Katinan served as Gbagbo's budget minister during the conflict, which erupted in the world's top cocoa grower after Gbagbo rejected the election victory in late 2010 of his rival, current President Alassane Ouattara. More than 3,000 people were killed.

Katinan had been living as a political refugee in Ghana but remained a vocal supporter of Gbagbo and a critic of Ouattara's government. Ivory Coast issued an international warrant for his arrest last year, accusing him of economic crimes.

"He has indeed been arrested in Ghana. Discussions are under way with the Ghanaian authorities over the principle and terms of his extradition," Ivorian government spokesman Bruno Kone told Reuters.

Ghana's Deputy Information Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa confirmed Katinan's arrest.

Ivory Coast has been struggling to cope with a series of armed raids targeted against the country's security services that began earlier this month. At least 15 people have been killed, stoking fears of renewed instability.

The government has accused a network of Gbagbo's supporters both within Ivory Coast and abroad of organizing the attacks, which it says are designed to unsettle the population and foreign investors.

Gbagbo's political allies deny being behind the raids and accuse the authorities of using the attacks as a pretext for a crackdown on the opposition.

Last year, Ouattara's government issued around two dozen international warrants against former high-ranking military and political officials close to Gbagbo, most of whom were believed to be living in exile in Ghana, Benin and Togo.

Katinan is the second top official in Gbagbo's government to be arrested while living in exile following the extradition of Moise Lida Kouassi, a former defense minister, from Togo in June.

Ivory Coast has criticized its neighbors, particularly Ghana, for failing to honor the warrants. Katinan's arrest occurred just weeks after the death of Ghanaian President John Atta-Mills, generally seen as friendly towards Gbagbo's administration.

Yemeni minister survives assassination attempt

ADEN (Reuters) - Yemen's Transport Minister Waed Abdullah Bathib survived an assassination attempt on Saturday when shots were fired at his car, a local government official said.

Nobody was hurt in the attack in the southern city of Aden, but Bathib's car was pockmarked by bullets, the official told Reuters.

He said that the shots were fired from another car. It was not clear who was behind the attack in the Khormaksar district of the city or how many gunmen were involved.

Bathib is a member of the Yemen Socialist Party, the former ruling party of South Yemen, of which Aden was the capital, before its unification with the north in 1990.

The Middle East's poorest country, where guns outnumber people by a ratio of three to one, is grappling with an insurgency by al Qaeda sympathisers in the south and a conflict in the north with the militant Houthi group of Zaydi Shi'ite Muslims.

It also faces a southern separatist movement aimed at establishing a new state of south Yemen with Aden as the capital.

Former president Ali Abdullah Saleh, who had ruled in north Yemen since 1978, was forced from power early this year after a year-long popular uprising that caused splits in the military and divided the country's powerful tribes.

Bill Clinton touts Obama jobs record in new ad

Former president Bill Clinton is stumping for Barack Obama in a new campaign ad, saying the president has a stronger plan to return the US to "full employment" than his Republican rival Mitt Romney.

In addressing the top issue on voters' minds -- the sour US economy -- the Democratic Party stalwart lashed out at Republicans in the 30-second spot for planning to "cut more taxes on upper-income people and go back to deregulation."

"That's what got us into trouble in the first place," said Clinton, who was in office from 1993 to 2001.

The video, in which the man some Democrats still call the "Big Dog" speaks throughout, is slated for broadcast in key states ahead of the November 6 election.

"This election, to me, is about which candidate is more likely to return us to full employment," said Clinton, 66.

"President Obama has a plan to rebuild America from the ground up, investing in innovation, education and job training. It only works if there is a strong middle class."

Romney, a multimillionaire former entrepreneur, says his business success qualifies him to save the US from unemployment, stagnating around eight percent. Unemployment before the 2008 economic crisis was only five percent.

When Obama was running against Clinton's wife Hillary in the 2008 presidential election, the former president criticized him for his lack of experience.

But the attacks were largely forgotten when Obama named Hillary Clinton his chief diplomat in 2009. And Bill Clinton is now regularly deployed by the Obama team to defend its platform.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet: The tablet with a crowning feature S-Pen..

The S-Pen equipped Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet has recently hit the US markets with a bang! So here is a review on how the tablet (the alleged ?copied version of Apple?s iPad and iPhone!) actually feels like!

Nothing new in the design!

First let us talk about the design. As far as what we reviewed, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet is quite an identical twin of Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Tablet. It has the identical features such as silver bezel at the sides, speaker placement, virtual button placement and all. The only difference in the design is that from the rear. Here, the new device has silver rear which drops till the bottom and highlights the camera. We must say that we felt a little disappointed on the build quality. Even though, we appreciate its light weight, but still it does not impress us on cheapness and nastiness. Considering the high price tag, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet feels a bit hollow to us!

It?s all about S-Pen!

The glorious feature of Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet is its S-pen which makes Samsung tablet all the more stylish! You will find it sitting in its ?own room?, viz. compartment at the bottom right. This S-pen is far more comfortable in hand than what we saw in the Galaxy Note Smartphone. We had pretty positive impressions about the S-Pen! ?It is pretty much responsive and also does not lag while you are writing or drawing something on that screen. As soon as the pen even closes the distance between the screen, you will find an on-screen cursor appearing without having the need to touch it! Samsung has also enabled a palm-rejection support which means that you can rest the palm on screen comfortably without stumbling on anything.

Split- Screen

The gadget has derived its name from the size of its screen. The screen also comes with an impressive feature of split screen which enables you to operate on two applications or windows side-by-side.

Conclusion

Now that we have discussed about the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet, the main question needs to be answered- is it worth buying the device? We would rather put it in a way that a lot of people will buy the gadget because of being a nifty processor, light-weight and slim bodied device. The main factor or decider will surely be its crowning feature ? the S-Pen!

It would also be worth mentioning that gadgets like Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet do not exist all alone. In order to compete with the device is the 16 GB Apple iPad too which has truly brilliant display. However, what might compel you too go for Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet is the better resolution screen, S-pen compatibility with the apps and a lot more other factors.

In India it?s priced at Rs 39,990/-

Rumor Roundup: BlackBerry 10

Research In Motion CEO Thorsten Heins gave the world a peek at what the upcoming BlackBerry 10 smartphones will offer customers.

The new system, announced Tuesday at BlackBerry World in Orlando, has some novel features. It emphasizes what Heins calls "flow" between applications, as well as social integration and multitasking. We've collected the best new aspects in the gallery.

One of the key differentiators of BlackBerry 10: how applications interact with each other. Heins said the new OS would let users transition between various activities without having to return to a home screen and completely switch apps.

Instead, users will be able to "glance" at apps that are running in the background by swiping windows and menus from the side.

"No one has time to pop in and out of applications every time they want to change an application," Heins said. "We want to use a paradigm that is easy and fast. It's all about the flow."

Heins also showed off how the camera on BlackBerry 10 devices would work. When a user takes a photo, they'll be able to "go back in time" (presumably via an image buffer) to select the best shot, even if it happened before the shutter was pressed.

The functionality isn't completely new, but RIM showed off a novel variation - you can limit the temporal shift to a specific area. So if you have the perfect shot, except your drunken aunt had her eyes closed at one moment, you can apply the effect just to her.

With the disaster that was the BlackBerry Storm a distant memory, Heins showed what RIM has in store for onscreen keyboards in BlackBerry 10. While typing, BB10 devices will predict the next word you want to type, presenting it above the letter key it starts with. To type that word, just swipe up.

Although RIM gave out prototype devices to every developer in attendance here at BlackBerry World in Orlando, the features Heins showed will only be available on consumer devices, which are due in the fall.

What do you think of BlackBerry 10's abilities? Does RIM have a shot at getting back in the smartphone game with them, or is it too little, too late?

Jasper Gratwick has been writing computer and technology articles online for nearly 3 years now. Find more about the newest, useful and interesting Blackberry news such as the BlackBerry 10.
