Write Epic Shit
http://thinktraffic.net/write-epic-shit
Guess what percentage of our conversations so far have been spent discussing promotional strategies. Seriously, make a guess.
The answer? Less than 20%. In every conversation I’ve had with wildly successful entrepreneurs and bloggers about building website traffic, promotional tactics only make up 20% of our talks. So, what is the other 80% of building a popular site about? Building a raving audience online all starts with writing epic shit. Period. Hands down. End of story. (If you aren’t building a blog, substitute the word “create” for “write.” Create epic shit. Either way, the formula is the same.) Write things that make people think. Inspire people. Change lives. Create value. Blow people away with your usefulness.

Google Trends And Why You Should Use It.
First what is google trends, to me google trends helps track what people have done in the past. If you know what people have done before, then you have a good idea of what they will do in the future.
This helps you make an educated guess of how to make your next move.
A quick silly example is Halloween. If you check when people start to type in the word Halloween it would be a good indicator of when people are interested in halloween stuff. So you could start to make an educated guess on when to start a ppc campaign.
So when you don't know for sure it gives you a place to start.
In this video you will learn how to use google trends

A nameserver is what connects your domain name and your hosting account.
For example: if you buy a domain from godaddy called example.com and you have a hosting service from hostgator, when someone types example.com in the url bar they will land on your site.

Are You Raising a Douchebag?: Marriage + Kids : Details
http://www.details.com/sex-relationships/marriage-and-kids/200711/are-you-raising-a-douchebag
It’s then that you must reckon with the real possibility that your drive to make little Johnny better, smarter, and hipper has merely turned him into a douchebag. Put it this way: If it’s your child, not you, who gets to choose your weekend brunch spot, or if he’s the one asking how the branzino is prepared, it’s probably time to take a hard look at your own behavior.

Hole No. 9 at Shadow Creek Golf Course. So vast. So mysterious.
By Robin Leach (contact)
Thursday, Jan. 20, 2011 | 2:13 p.m.
Superstars from the entertainment and sports worlds will collide at Michael Jordan’s 10th annual celebrity invitational golf tournament to be played over four days in Las Vegas for the first time starting March 31. It coincides with the Academy of Country Music Awards, so expect a real cavalcade of headline names.
The tournament will be played at the prestigious private golf course Shadow Creek, which is being opened to the public for the first time. The course, built by Steve Wynn, has been available only to MGM Resorts’ high rollers and VIPS, and then eventually to casino resort guests.

Michael has set a target of more than $5 million for his event, with funds going to Make-A-Wish Foundation and Nevada Cancer Institute, among others. The all-star roster has included Wayne Gretzky, Charles Barkley, Mario Lemieux, Julius Irving, Mark Wahlberg, Samuel L. Jackson and Kurt Russell.
VIPs will have their own party deck at the Par 5 128th hole to watch the celebrities take their final shots. Tickets went on sale yesterday and are available at the Viva Elvis box office at Aria and online at MJCIGolf.com.

It’s part of a nationwide network of fundraising parties and includes the live broadcast of the show on ABC. Expect an official announcement next week that the Palms will play host to a gala black-tie dinner on Oscar night, with the telecast played on a big screen at Brenden Theaters.
It’s an officially sanctioned Academy event, so guests receive an official Oscar show program and the nominees and winners commemorative poster.

WBC/WBO bantamweight champion Fernando Montiel, left, of Mexico and Nonito Donaire of the Philippines pose during a news conference at the Mandalay Monday, January 10, 2011. Montiel will defend his titles against Donaire at the Mandalay Bay Events Center on February 19.

It's very rare for a boxing championship-belt holder to be an underdog in his title-defense fight.
But Fernando Montiel, the WBC and WBO bantamweight champion, is listed as a +220 underdog (win $2.20 for a $1 wager) for his Feb. 19 title defense against heralded Nonito Donaire at the Mandalay Bay Events Center.
After hearing the odds Monday during a press event at Mandalay Bay, the veteran Montiel (43-2-2 with 33 KOs) jokingly offered some words of advice for bettors.
"The only advice I can tell you is to run to the sports books and try to win some money with me," Montiel said.
Those affiliated with the fight are billing it as one of the most intriguing of the year thanks to its two accomplished fighters.
"We think they are the two best bantamweights in the world," said Bruce Trampler, Top Rank's matchmaker. "When you look at pound-for-pound fighters, and you see two guys like this who can box, who can punch and who can take a punch, it's just a dream matchup. As a fan, it's just a fight I'm looking forward to."
The fight is scheduled for 12 rounds, but don't expect it to go the distance, both fighters warned.
"It will not go 12 rounds," Donaire said. "He has tremendous power. I have tremendous power. May the best man win.
"I want to win by knockout. He wants to win by knockout," Donaire continued. "That's why I think this fight will not go 12 rounds."
The 28-year-old Donaire (25-1, 17 KOs) is widely considered one of the sport's top-10 pound-for-pound fighters. Nine of this last 10 victories have come by knockout, and he enters the fight with a nine-year, 24-fight winning streak.
In his most recent fight, Donaire floored for WBA champion Wladimir Sidorenko in the fourth-round Dec. 4, battering the overmatched fighter from start to finish in a convincing win.
"He can talk all day and he can fight all night. He is a terrific star," Trampler said. "A lot of people have said to us, 'Is he going to be the next Manny Pacquiao?' because both are Filipino. I would rather have him be the first Nonito Donaire. I think he is terrific. He is a big fan favorite and he can back it up with his fists."
The 31-year-old Montiel, however, is no slouch.
Eight of his last 10 victories have come by stoppage, including eight world title fights. He's the fourth Mexican fighter to win titles in three different weight divisions, joining the likes of legends Julio Cesar Chavez, Erik Morales and Marco Antonio Barrera.
Donaire surely will be one of the toughest challengers in Montiel's lengthy career.
"The only thing I can tell you is that it won't last 36 minutes," Montiel said.
"It will be a night of power. He has power, and I have power."
I've been know to seek into many places in Las Vegas, but since growing older and wiser, I now just ask my friends for a casual entrance.
No more back alleys and back doors. Now I just walk up to my buddies and say "What'sup"
But sadly I no longer know anyone at the Mandalay Bay Events Center.
I'm going to start working a new angle stay tuned for my progress...

SpectaRuler is a very clever utility that allows the user to measure the distance, height, and elevation of objects. How is this possible without actually walking up to the object with a massive tape measure? Through a combination of the iPhone’s camera, accelerometer, touch-screen display, and the addition of a little triangulation (and other difficult math type stuff) SpectaRuler is able to make estimates that are apparently pretty accurate.
The way to use the app is very particular– and a little surprising– so it’s very important to configure SpectaRuler properly and read through all the instructions before you begin. In a nutshell, this means configuring the accelerometer and telling the app what size shoe you wear. That’s right: your shoes are of the utmost importance.
Here’s why: SpectaRuler works by recording the relative size and angle of objects that are captured with the camera. Then, the user has to carefully walk either three or six steps, placing one foot in front of the other, so that the app can then record the difference as it appears through the camera. By analyzing the difference between these two images, and by knowing the precise distance between where the two were recorded, SpectaRuler can figure out all the relevant measurements.
So, how accurate is SpectaRuler, anyway? That depends, first of all, on how meticulously the app was calibrated, how steady the user’s hands are, and just how much the user’s shoes conform to the standard. The math behind the program is sound, so in ideal conditions one can expect the end result to be somewhere between “pretty close” and “that seems about right.” Unfortunately, if you’re in the position to estimate the height of an object with your iPhone, chances are there’s no way to confirm how close SpectaRuler’s final estimate is.
The good new is, it doesn’t need to be exact. This is an app that is intended to entertain, to satisfy one’s curiosity, and to add to the ever-growing list of all the cool things a smartphone to do. If you want to use this app for professional land surveying purposes, well… don’t. If you just want to make your buddy raise an eyebrow, or figure out roughly how far you’d plummet if you were to step out your apartment window, SpectaRuler is easily worth the price.
