EUGENE, Ore. (AP) ? Maybe the response just slipped. Or maybe the question completely caught her off guard.
As Allyson Felix sauntered away from the crowd and on to safety, she actually broke her vow of silence.
Only two words ? "Feeling good." ? and then she was off again.
Felix is looking solid on the track even in the midst of controversy, winning her semifinal heat at Olympic trials on Friday.
Same with training partner Jeneba Tarmoh, who moments earlier captured her race convincingly, too.
After the 200 final Saturday, these two sprinters will finally address what everyone is anxious to know: Just how they will break their third-place tie in the 100.
A runoff? A flip of the coin?
Soon, there will be a resolution.

How to bend it like Beckham: Physics students calculate perfect soccer ball kicking formula
ScienceDaily (June 29, 2012) ? Now that David Beckham won't be appearing at the London 2012 Olympics, other members of Team GB wanting to brush up on their free-kicks can rest easy.
University of Leicester physics students have published a paper which sets out the optimum way of kicking a football (soccer ball) in order to make it bend into the goal.
The ex-England captain's curling free-kicks became legendary, and even inspired the title of the 2002 film Bend It Like Beckham.
Now, four master's students at the University of Leicester's Department of Physics and Astronomy believe they have discovered a formula to explain how the football curves when a player puts spin on it.
Jasmine Sandhu, Amy Edgington, Matthew Grant and Naomi Rowe-Gurney found a relationship between the amount a football bends in the air, the speed it is travelling and the angular velocity -- or "spin" -- applied to the ball.
When a football spins in the air, it is subjected to a force called the Magnus force -- which causes it to curl sideways from the direction it was originally kicked.
The group found that the distance a ball bends (D) as a result of this force is related to the ball's radius (R), the density of air (?), the ball's angular velocity (?), it's velocity through the air (v), it's mass (m) and the distance travelled by the ball in the direction it was kicked (x).
For instance, if a player standing 15 metres away from the byline kicked an average football so that it was travelling at a velocity of 35 metres per second and had an angular velocity of 10 revolutions per second, the ball would bend around 5 metres towards the goal.
As a result, the player would probably need to bring a tape measure -- as well as a measure of their own abilities -- if they wanted to put the theory into practice during a game!
Jasmine Sandhu, 22, who studies Physics with Space Science and Technology, said: "Whilst researching new ideas for a paper I read about how physics influences various aspects of football, from the clothing they wear to the effects of playing at high altitude.
"The article discussed how a new design of ball, used in the 2010 World Cup, has three dimensional moulding of the panels in order to produce a more rounded ball, thus affecting the spin that can be imparted.
"This prompted us to examine how footballers use spin on the ball, and the factors which influence how much the path of the ball would bend.
"These findings made me more aware of how I can use spin to bend the ball in a game of football. In addition, this research is also relevant to other sports, such as tennis, which shows that physics definitely gives you the edge!"
The paper was published in this year's University of Leicester Journal of Special Physics Topics, which features original short papers written by students in the final year of their four-year Master of Physics degree.

High-tech warhead intercepts ballistic missile in test
7 hrs.
A high-tech warhead successfully destroyed a separating ballistic missile in a crucial test of technology to protect against more sophisticated regional ballistic missile threats from North Korea and Iran, the U.S. military reports.
The Standard Missile-3 Block IB interceptor is an upgrade to current ballistic missile defense system technology and part of President Barack Obama's plan to guard NATO's European territory.
For the test, a target missile was launched at 11:15 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time on Tuesday from a missile range on Kauai.?
Following the target launch, a U.S. Navy warship, the USS Lake Erie, in a remote patch of the mid-Pacific Ocean, detected and tracked the missile with its onboard radar, developed a fire control solution and launched the SM-3 Block IB interceptor.
The warship continued to track the target and send trajectory information to the interceptor in-flight.
?The SM-3 maneuvered to a point in space, as designated by the fire control solution, and released its kinectic warhead,? the Department of Defense said in a news release.
?The kinetic warhead acquired the target, diverted into its path, and, using only the force of a direct impact, engaged and destroyed the threat in a hit-to-kill intercept.?
This was the second successful test of the system, following an earlier success in May.?
?Initial indications are that all components performed as designed, resulting in a very accurate intercept,? the military said.

Colorado wildfire intensifies, consumes 15,000 acres
COLORADO SPRINGS (Reuters) - Firefighters struggled on Wednesday against a wildfire at the edge of Colorado Springs that forced 32,000 people from their homes, prompted evacuations from the U.S. Air Force Academy and consumed an unknown number of homes.
The Waldo Canyon Fire, which has grabbed attention for days because of its proximity to landmarks like the famed mountaintop of Pikes Peak and the Air Force Academy, has now burned through 15,375 acres, fire information officer Rob Deyerberg told Reuters.
"That means it made a run of roughly 9,000 acres in a matter of hours yesterday afternoon," he said.
The fire was not as intense early on Wednesday but will likely build up again as the temperature rises during the day, Deyerberg said.
Officials were assessing damage a day after wind-driven flames swept over containment lines into Colorado's second-most populous city, consuming an unknown number of homes on the town's outskirts as authorities hurried to evacuate residents.
"This area that we're in is extremely dense," Colorado Springs Fire Department spokeswoman Sunny Smaldino told CNN on Wednesday. "It's one of our worst scenarios in our city to have that many homes effected."
Deyerberg said a spot fire may have touched a vacant, southwest corner of the Air Force Academy grounds. No serious injuries were reported as of Wednesday morning, he said.
As the wildfire suddenly grew more ferocious on Tuesday, the entire community of Mountain Shadows, a northwest subdivision, appeared to be enveloped in an orange glow after dark.
"This is a fire of epic proportions," Colorado Springs Fire Chief Rich Brown said as ash drifted down on the city, sirens wailed and the thick smell of smoke permeated the air.
Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper flew into the city Tuesday night by helicopter to meet with fire commanders and tour the fire zone first-hand. He noted that the blaze was one of at least a dozen burning throughout the state. Four people have died in Colorado wildfires so far this year.
"This is the worst fire season in the history of Colorado," he said during an impromptu news conference, adding that from the air he saw many homes destroyed in a glowing landscape that looked "surreal."
El Paso County Sheriff Terry Maketa said 32,000 people had been evacuated, and an Air Force Academy spokesman said the evacuation zone included two communities of single-family homes on academy grounds housing civilian and military personnel and their families.
Columns of vehicles carrying evacuees and hastily packed belongings stretched bumper-to-bumper for miles on Tuesday, crawling slowly southward out of town along Interstate 25.
Closer to the blaze, which has been fanned by winds blowing into the southern Rockies from the prairies to the east, trees were visibly twisting from the heat of the flames.
"It's a very hostile environment out there," fire information officer Anne Rys-Sikora said.
Hickenlooper said he was consulting with Pentagon officials. The Air Force Academy issued a statement saying the military was preparing to dispatch up to 25 more helicopters to join the firefighting effort.
Authorities earlier said that half of the fleet of eight Air Force C-130 cargo planes equipped as air tankers were already at work, dropping flame-retardant chemicals over the blaze.
DEATH IN UTAH
The Waldo Canyon Fire, burning primarily within the Pike National Forest on the western fringe of Colorado City, was dwarfed in size by wildfires elsewhere across the state, and by a fatal blaze that flared with renewed intensity in Utah.
Authorities said on Tuesday a body was found in the ashes the fast-moving Wood Hollow Fire about 100 miles south of Salt Lake City, marking the first fatality in a blaze that has scorched over 39,000 acres of rolling hills covered by parched cheat grass and sagebrush.
Flames fanned by high winds into a second county forced the closure of Utah's state Route 89 for a second time and prompted the evacuation of the entire town Fairview, a community of more than 1,200 residents according to the latest census, state emergency managers said.
The blaze already has leveled an estimated 30 homes and killed 75 sheep, authorities said.
The Wood Hollow Fire is believed to be one of just two western wildfires that have claimed lives in recent weeks.
The other is the High Park Fire near Fort Collins, Colorado, north of Denver, which now ranks as that state's second-largest blaze on record and its most destructive ever, having consumed 87,250 acres in steep mountain canyons since it was sparked by lightning two weeks ago.
The High Park has destroyed 248 homes and killed a 62-year-old grandmother, whose body was found in the ashes of her cabin, while leaving an estimated 4,300 residents displaced by evacuations.
Colorado accounts for several of the 29 large active wildfires being fought across the country. The bulk of them were in seven western states - Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, New Mexico, Arizona and California, the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, reported.
Although federal authorities say the fire season got off to an early start in parts of the northern Rockies, the number of fires and acreage burned nationwide is still below the 10-year average for this time of year, according to fire agency records.

DIY and budgeting
DIY is an excellent way to save money as it enables people to carry out jobs without having to pay someone else to do them. Before anyone undertakes any kind of DIY project, they should first check if they can really afford to do it.
DIY can save on expense, but any project has to be budgeted. There is nothing worse than starting a project then running out of cash before it has been completed.
The best way to complete a project and remain within the budget is to source the materials and tools as cheaply as possible. It is important to remember that quality should never be sacrificed due to cost.
Before buying anything, it is important to check whether any of the tools and materials are already to hand. If purchases have to be made, it is then a case of finding where they can be bought at an affordable price.
Many of the big DIY stores offer good deals. Another option is to shop online. If items have to be ordered, the cost of delivery should be factored into the budget.

Wall Street Winces At Zynga Event As Shares Tumble Nearly 5%
It's been a super tough few months for Zynga and internal morale at the company. After Facebook's lackluster IPO and the lock-up period for employees broke, Zynga shares have slipped more than 30 percent since May. Today could have been a reprieve for the company, which had its big annual launch event today in San Francisco. Shares were up early in the morning, but they dramatically sold off around 11:30 a.m. Pacific time by about 5 percent to $5.79. I'm not sure exactly why this happened -- as no one can ever fully understand the logic (or illogic) of the market -- but it was around the time that the company talked about casino games. It's possible that investors wanted something more certain about the future of Zynga's online gambling and casino revenues.david archuleta david archuleta hobbit trailer greenhill nj plane crash plane crash new jersey beef o bradys bowl

Stocks edge higher amid EU leaders meeting
By msnbc.com news services
Stocks moved higher Wednesday as investors had few reasons to act ahead of another meeting of EU leaders expected to do little to solve the region's debt crisis.
The euro was also little changed against the U.S. dollar while European equities rose in choppy trade.
Few anticipate anything concrete to emerge from the two-day European Union meeting that kicks off Thursday after German Chancellor Angela Merkel said debt sharing, an idea backed by France, Italy and Spain, would not happen in her lifetime.
"This is like a slow motion car accident occurring over there and the market has certainly set this into prices," said Robert Pavlik, chief market strategist at Banyan Partners LLC in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
"The impact of lasting and additional austerity may not have been fully priced in though," he said. "That could keep the euro zone in an extended period of recession that could continue to drag on (U.S.) earnings."
In economic news, demand for long-lasting U.S. manufactured goods rebounded more than expected in May and a gauge of business spending plans increased, but slowing global growth suggest the momentum might not be sustained.
Some of Wall Street's top analysts have published their research on Facebook Inc and most are cautiously optimistic. Facebook shares fell 2 percent to $32.43 after gaining more than 20 percent in the past two weeks.
Shares of Lennar Corp rose 3.6 percent to $28.37 after the U.S. homebuilder reported a rise in new orders for the fifth straight quarter and said a slow and steady recovery was underway in the housing market.
A U.S. judge on Tuesday backed Apple's request to stop Samsung selling its Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet in the United States, giving the iPhone maker a significant win in the global smartphone and tablet patent wars. Apple shares edged up in light premarket trading.
Google will soon unveil a tablet co-branded with Taiwan's Asustek Computer and priced to compete with Amazon's Kindle Fire device, an Asustek executive said.

Rewriting quantum chips with a beam of light
Tuesday, June 26, 2012
The promise of ultrafast quantum computing has moved a step closer to reality with a technique to create rewritable computer chips using a beam of light. Researchers from The City College of New York (CCNY) and the University of California Berkeley (UCB) used light to control the spin of an atom's nucleus in order to encode information.
The technique could pave the way for quantum computing, a long-sought leap forward toward computers with processing speeds many times faster than today's. The group will publish their results on June 26 in Nature Communications.
Current electronic devices are approaching the upper limits in processing speed, and they rely on etching a pattern into a semiconductor to create a chip or integrated circuit. These patterns of interconnections serve as highways to shuttle information around the circuit, but there is a drawback.
"Once the chip is printed, it can only be used one way," explained Dr. Jeffrey Reimer, UCB professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering and the study co-author.
The team ? including CCNY Professor of Physics Carlos Meriles and PhD graduate students Jonathan King of UCB and Yunpu Li of CCNY? saw a remedy for these problems in the emerging sciences of spintronics and quantum computing.
They have developed a technique to use laser light to pattern the alignment of "spin" within atoms so that the pattern can be rewritten on the fly. Such a technique may one day lead to rewritable spintronic circuits.
Digital electronics and conventional computing rely on translating electrical charges into the zeros and ones of binary code. A "spintronics" computer, on the other hand, would use the quantum property of electron spin, which enables the electron to store any number between zero and one.
Imagine this as if the electron were a "yin-yang" symbol in which the proportions of the dark and light areas?representing values from zero to one?could vary at will. This would mean that multiple computations could be done simultaneously, which would amp up processing power.
Attempts at using electrons for quantum computing have been plagued, however, by the fact that electron spins switch back and forth rapidly. Thus, they make very unstable vehicles to hold information. To suppress the random switching back and forth of electrons, the UCB and CCNY researchers used laser light to produce long-lasting nuclear spin "magnets" that can pull, push, or stabilize the spins of the electrons.
They did this by illuminating a sample of gallium arsenide ? the same semiconductor used in cell phone chips ? with a pattern of light, much as lithography etches a physical pattern onto a traditional integrated circuit. The illuminated pattern aligned the spins of all the atomic nuclei, and, thus, their electrons, at once, creating a spintronic circuit.
"What you could have is a chip you can erase and rewrite on the fly with just the use of a light beam," said Professor Meriles. Changing the pattern of light altered the layout of the circuit instantly.
"If you can actually rewrite with a beam of light and alter this pattern, you can make the circuit morph to adapt to different requirements," he added. "Imagine what you can make a system like that do for you!"

The Phoenix Conservatory of Music | Scottsdale, Arizona
The Phoenix Conservatory of Music doesn?t care where someone lives, how much talent they have, or how much money is in the bank account. The nonprofit organization?s mission is simply to deliver the power of music to everyone.
Besides private lessons in many areas of music, the Conservatory branches out to the community to fill in the gaps of music education where needed. The Conservatory moved into a different facility three years ago, and it now reaches out to 46 different sites, including schools, parks and recreation departments, libraries, and museums.
?We?ve been around since 1998,? says the Conservatory?s executive director, Regina Nixon. ?Our founder, Bonnie Lou Toigo Coleman, was the head of guitar studies at Glendale Community College, and she was seeing a gradual decrease in the readiness of college-level students preparing for a professional career in music education or performance.?
Back then, the organization operated from the back of Music and Record Surplus by the Metro Center. They offered private lessons and facilitated a small amount of community programming. In 2004, Coleman retired, and Nixon was promoted to head the organization. Now, programming extends from 6-month-old babies and their families through senior citizens.
?We believe every person has the potential to enjoy and create music,? Nixon says. ?Arizona schools do not offer music instruction until fourth through sixth grades. It?s not bad, but not great. We all know the developmental assets when babies? brains are still developing are huge. We want parents to learn to interact with their children in a musical way for a building of a lifelong love for music.?
Two years ago, the Conservatory branched out even more and became a Berklee City Music Network School. At the heart of the partnership with this Boston-based college is PULSE (Pre-University Learning Systems Experience). This opportunity gives students a hip urban college preparatory curriculum that is completely interactive. Online instruction is readily available wherever the students are located. All it takes is a log-in, and they?re ready to take notes and learn about them.
The Conservatory competitively prices private and group lessons, and they can be considerably lower than other community programs. For instance, for-profit music teachers charge $30 to $40 for a half-hour lesson; the Conservatory?s rate is $18. The group lessons are even less?$10 to $12 a week, with small class sizes. Students get additional benefits such as the PULSE program, free tickets to events, and discounted prices to seasonal events, many performances, and recitals.
The programming is available to the students in their own neighborhoods and communities. More than 2,000 students throughout the area are involved in the Conservatory?s programming each year. Of those, only 300 are enrolled in private lessons. Many of the music programs are brought to the students inside their own schools or as after-school programs in nearby recreation and community centers.
?One of our goals is to build skills sets to make these students better people and give them the skills to be successful for the workforce of the future,? Nixon says. She comments that in today?s school systems, too much focus is placed on tests in which only one answer can be correct.
?In the real world, there are lots of answers and lots of questions we are still discovering,? Nixon says. ?The arts, including music, teach all of that. It makes students think creatively and outside the box.?
The Phoenix Conservatory of Music is located at 7801 N. Black Canyon Hwy., Ste. 6, in Phoenix. (602) 353-9900. phoenixconservatoryofmusic.org

OLED Lego train station emerges from Adafruit and Arduino gear, minifigs to get home on time
Who knew Lego characters had to be somewhere in a hurry? Adafruit did, as it just whipped up a minifig-sized train schedule. The invention mates one of Adafruit's own 1-inch OLED boards with an Arduino Uno controlling the schedule behind the scenes. It looks to be a straightforward project for the DIY types, although the display is currently all show: the schedule doesn't (yet) pair up with the train tracks to automatically let your minifigs know if their trip to the pirate spaceship castle has been delayed by ghosts. You can check the source link for the full instructions. Duplo builders, alas, are kept out of the loop.

Deeds unknown, yet never forgotten.
These are the Duranin!
Of honor within and of fear without.
Remember them, when in hope you doubt.

Hi! I'm sorry, somebody already private messaged me and reserved the waterbender. Yes you can blood bend, and you don't have to do it on a full moon if you're a strong waterbender. Relationahip Status means if you're single or taken by another character. I'm sorry that it's been reserved. You can try one of the other characters who can tag along with Team Avatar.

Well, it's pretty much just like the TV Show, Avatar the Last Airbender. Except, instead of their characters you create your own. Right now a 100 Year War has started and the Avatar is the only one who can stop it. He is found, but he only knows the element of air and he has to learn the rest of the elements. Many people he meets will help him, many others will despise him. He must stay hidden and travel around the Four Nations to learn the elements along with his new friends who will help. His destiny is to defeat Fire Lord Ozai.

The Marshall Reddick BlogSolo 401(k) ? The Ultimate Retirement ...
A Solo 401(k) Plan is designed for the self-employed and offers powerful features that are not found in conventional IRA or 401(k) plans.? It is a flexible and tax efficient retirement solution that will open up a world of investment opportunity with unlimited potential.? You can use your retirement account to invest in Real Estate, Notes, Tax Deeds, Tax Liens and much more.?
The Solo 401(k) plan is unique and becoming very popular because it is designed explicitly for small business owners. It?s a tax efficient and cost effective plan that offers all the benefits of a Self-Directed IRA plan but includes additional benefits.
Checkbook Control without Custodian Fees:
In a Solo 401(k) Plan, you serve as trustee of the Plan which gives you ?checkbook control? over the Plan?s assets.? Making an investment with a Solo 401(k) Plan is as easy as writing a check, meaning that ?you do not have to hire a bank or trust company to serve as trustee. All assets of the Solo 401(k) trust are under the sole authority of the Solo 401(k) participant, eliminating the expenses and delays associated with an IRA custodian and enabling you to act quickly when the right investment opportunity presents itself.
High Contribution Limits:
While an IRA only allows a $5,000/yr. contribution limit ($6,000 for those over age 50), the Solo 401(k) annual contribution limits are significantly higher, up to $55,500/yr. That?s nearly 10 times more compared to an IRA!? Also, if your spouse generates compensation from the business, he or she can make contributions to the Plan.
Flexibility:
While you have the option to shelter a large portion of your income, contributions to a Solo 401(k) plan are completely discretionary. You have the option of contributing as much as legally possible, but you also have the option of reducing or even suspending plan contributions if necessary. In other words, you have the ability to make contributions to your Solo 401(k) Plan but are not required to do so.
Roth Sub-Account:
With an IRAs, those who earn high incomes are disallowed from contributing to a Roth IRA.? The Solo 401(k) plan contains a built-in Roth Sub-Account which gives you the ability to make Roth type contributions (after tax) significantly greater than with an IRA, without any income restrictions (for 2012 Roth Solo 401(k) maximum contribution is $22,500). ??This allows you to grow your investments tax-free!
Loan Feature:
While an IRA offers no participant loan feature, the Solo 401(k) allows participants to borrow up to $50,000 or 50% of their account value (whichever is less). This offers a Solo 401(k) Plan participant the ability to access up to $50,000 for any purpose, including paying personal debt, funding a business, or investing in real estate.
Exempt from UDFI:
When an IRA buys real estate that is leveraged with mortgage financing, it creates Unrelated Debt Financed Income (?UDFI?) ? a type of Unrelated Business Taxable Income (also known as ?UBTI?) in which taxes must be paid. The UBTI tax is approximately 35%. ?With a Solo 401(k) plan, you can use leverage without being subject to the UDFI rules and UBTI tax. This exemption provides significant tax advantages for using a Solo 401(k) Plan versus an IRA to purchase leveraged real estate.
Cost Effective Administration:
Generally, Solo 401(k) plans are easy to operate. There is no annual filing requirement unless your Solo 401(k) plan exceeds $250,000 in assets, in which case you will need to file a short information return with the IRS (Form 5500-EZ).

Solid Advice On How To Succeed In Article Marketing, Writing - Tera88
Top Article Marketing Tips For Maximum Success
Always strive to use simple language that people will easily understand when writing your articles. Don?t use complicated phrases that will confuse people or send them looking for a dictionary. Also, avoid jargon, slang or humor because you want a clear communication style. So, use plain language and your articles will get noticed and published.
Adding in links to your other articles that are helpful and related can be a huge benefit for your article marketing. The benefit behind adding in link backs is that it will help you in the search rankings and it will get readers to more and more of your articles.
Avoid offering your affiliate customers discounts. This is a tempting strategy many people go to in an effort to drive more sales. Problem is, people buy things because they need them, and because the item is top quality. Continually remind yourself that people buy based on value ? then build value into every part of your business.
Use numbers, bullets and lists. Readers want to scan articles and grab information quickly. Write your articles so your readers can pull out the important information as quickly as possible. Lists and bullets also keep your writing concise, which helps keep your articles packed with more information and value for your readers. Add numbers in your titles, such as ?4 Secrets for?? or ?5 Top Tips to??
Consider including images with your articles, in order to attract more attention. Images can immediately draw the eye and incorporating them in your articles is a guaranteed way of getting the articles noticed. However, just be careful that you don?t use copyrighted images or images for which you don?t have the rights.
Instead of designing and distributing a traditional e-mail ad, mold your pitch into an article format. The article can take the form a story, editorial or informative piece. Disguising your ad as an interesting, objective feature, invites readers to be drawn into the piece, without immediately perceiving it to be an advertisement or sales pitch.
Be bold and powerful with your words. Readers want to know that the writer is really speaking their mind. To influence them even more, use strong wording to prove your point. Bold your most powerful words, and use bullet points to draw their eyes to the places you want them to focus most.
Reaching success in article marketing should be your ultimate goal, and everything you learn and put into action from here on out should be to reach that goal. Now that you are informed with what you have just learned is an invaluable piece of the puzzle, so never neglect to absorb and use this information to the best of your ability.

Article Marketing ? What You Need to Know
You do not have to be a terrific writer to have success with article marketing, although that quality sure would not hurt. We do recommend that you publish to your own site, first, and once indexed you can submit your content to article directories. Later on once you start making a profit you can use other paid marketing methods. You can also take the following article marketing tips to the bank after you put them in action.
One of the first things that you need to keep in mind is that article marketing is all about delivering quality information to your readers. It doesn?t matter how many articles you?re submitting, as long as you are balancing quality with quantity, you?ll see results. It is not difficult or time-consuming to write unique articles, and for the best results that is what you should always do. All people have a writing ?voice,? and that is what you need to inject into all you write. All of your articles need to stand on their own and be able to give something worthwhile. Focus on solid and useful information that is properly structured according to where you will be publishing and you will be fine.
You cannot afford to lose anyone in the early stages of your article, so be sure your introduction paragraph is tight and compelling. Your articles will flourish or perish on the strength of the first few sentences in the opening paragraph. So if you want a high open rate then work on the summary and make it interesting. Never include any hype words in your summary because that will turn-off many people. But there is nothing wrong with stirring the imaginations and curious nature of people in the summary and closing paragraph of the article.
Once they click through and start reading your article, the beginning of your article should let them know about the purpose of your article. All of that may sound hard to do, but that is not the case at all.
However, you do want to fulfill the promise you make in the title of your article. Each article is an opportunity for you, and that is why delivering on the promise in the title is so important. This will make it easy for you to get a higher open rate for your article, which means your article gets read more. Your title is where your focus should be when you?re starting the article. It is exactly like the title is the ad for your article. The most important component in any title is what they reader will gain by reading your article.
In conclusion, article marketing can be seen as the grounding force for many new online marketers. In some ways, article marketing is the ultimate model whereby you start with very little and can quickly be on your way to a six figure income. The sooner you take action, the sooner you will see something positive happening. You never know what may happen, and you can succeed with it.

You do have the power and resources to take your affiliate marketing to an entirely new level. If you need help to turn you into a profitable blogger, then this article was written for you.
One of the best things to remember when you take on affiliate marketing is your network. The bigger your network is, the more you will be able to do as an affiliate marketer.

Whether you build it from your blog readers, your RSS subscribers or your Facebook fans, a network is incredibly important if you want to succeed with affiliate marketing. Do not think that you will have to go a really long way before you can profit from your network. Size is not nearly as important as quality.
It will, however, take some time before you have built a solid network. Do not expect it to start happening overnight.

So your efforts should be focused on building readership on your blog by getting relevant traffic. This will automatically improve your chances of finding long term success with affiliate marketing. It will give you the leverage you really need.
Another curious aspect of IM is that there are the ups and downs of traffic and buying which is totally normal. What tends to happen a lot of the times are the bulk of sales coming in during regular hours of the day. If you have not noticed this trend, then you have to verify it for yourself so you know what you are doing. If you observe your audience long enough, then you will see the trends and patterns of the traffic. All of the things you do to help your blog earn more money are important. Growing your affiliate commissions through your blog is not rocket science. As you can see from this article, it?s pretty simple if you just put your mind to it. Lots of affiliate marketers have used blogs to increase their incomes. Why can?t you do it too? You only need to take it more seriously. Focus on making sure that the products you offer to your readers are of the highest quality. Give them true value not just with your content but with the products you want them to buy through you. Basically, take care of your readers and help them find the solutions they need and, in the process, make some money for yourself as well.

Article Writing Tips That Are Easy, Fast, and Effective
If you understand how to go about it, article writing can be immensely enjoyable and you can make money with it, too. In order to help you, we?ll discuss some article writing tips that can set you on the right path.
The first and foremost thing that you need to keep in mind when writing articles is to focus on giving targeted information to your readers, something they can use. It?s extremely easy to find articles published in directories that are vague and really do not offer anything substantial to the reader. Simple question, would any readers in your own market have good reasons to read your articles? In online marketing, and in any business actually, if you provide your market with what they?re seeking, then often times they will reciprocate by giving you what you?re seeking. Do a little research, it?s not hard, and add something new to your articles instead of rearranging other articles you find out of convenience. You?ll find that highly original and informative articles spread around the web like wildfire. You?ll see them picked up by webmasters, newsletter publishers, etc. Another reason to write excellent and informative articles is because people may bookmark them to social bookmarking websites and some receive a ton of traffic. There are many benefits of creating valuable articles, because you?ll not only be receiving high quality traffic but will also be able to build credibility. When you write articles, be sure to answer certain questions you know, through research, that your audience wants to know about. The writer?s most effective weapon is possibly not what you?re thinking. Ok, we?re going to say that the best weapon is the ability for the writer to focus and stay that way. Keeping a good focus can be very tough, and that is even moreso true if there are a lot of potential distractions. No matter what you do, you will always produce better results if you are focused. A good way to garner focus is to first get into the flow and keep on going with it uninterrupted. Naturally, you need to take some time to do this, but just have patience and keep working at it.
You have to focus on making your reader feel comfortable reading your article. Keep your writing style smooth and simple. Don?t include a lot of unnecessary jargon and write like you speak. You?ll always want to write like you?re talking to the average person on the street. Never write in a condescending manner to your audience, and avoid the expensive words because that approach will not work. In conclusion, the only way to become a good article writer is to read and practice writing. You?ll improve as a writer if you can teach your mind to focus and relax.

3 Simple Article Marketing Tips that Work
Of course article marketing can work very well, but it is especially well-suited for more inexperienced marketers because the learning curve is not so bad. In the following article we shall be looking into three simple to apply article marketing tips that will help you boost your website traffic and get more exposure to your online business.
The main purpose of all your articles is to provide valuable content to your readers. It is possible to produce a lot of articles and submit them, but just keep in mind that you should maintain a good level of quality in your articles.

Online readers scan and skim, notoriously, and that is what they do to the opening of your article. Be sure to have a solid summary in place because some percentage of people do base a decision on it. Never include any hype words in your summary because that will turn-off many people. Put a little bit of teaser copy in the summary and allude to something they must know about.
Always let people know early in your article about what they can expect to find out. If you want, you can search for most viewed articles, this is at Ezinearticles, and then study how they wrote their introductory paragraph.
Consider taking your best articles and compiling them into a short ebook that can be given away. This could be a collection of all your best articles or the ones that are focused on a similar topic. You just never know what can happen until you give something a try. Yes of course this will also serve as a promotional ebook so be sure to add your links in the right places. In the case of affiliates you may have, then this will be perfect for them to serve as optin material with their affiliate links.

It can help you get started without much in your kitty, which makes the whole idea of writing, submitting and generating traffic from your articles so appealing. The sooner you take action, the sooner you will see something positive happening. The more you learn, the better your chances of success.

Effective Article Marketing With These Time Tested Tips!
Endeavor to write something new, even if the topic has been covered hundreds of times. If you are different, you will be better at marketing. Regurgitating content is not going to help your site based on the ongoing evolution of duplicate content filters.
Do not post a stock article on your website that is already posted in a million places all over the Internet. Article marketing is all about being unique and rising above the crowd. If you just follow the crowd when posting articles, your voice gets lost in that crowd. Using an original article will provide new perspective to the reader that they will associate with your site.
Use your own style and voice when writing articles. If you are having to use something like a thesaurus or dictionary for almost every word that you are writing, do not go through with submitting it. Readers are smart. They can tell if you?re trying to sound smart by using big words or overly complex sentence structure.
Remember to maintain a high quantity of article submissions. If you post your articles on blog networks, you should submit your work in a consistent and regular manner. To promote a specific keyword, it is necessary to submit a lot of articles that contain the keyword. For particularly competitive keywords, you should submit about five articles to directories and about ten to blog networks. Then you must make fifty posts to a private blog network if you want to get a relatively high ranking.
Before marketing an article, one must review previously published articles, in order to maintain originality. This way, it is easy to identify and customize topics and approaches that will be successful.
Improvement to the style in which articles are written can be achieved by staying current with the available online tools. New innovations are being created all the time to help you become more efficient with your article marketing. You need as much help as you can get. You must be competitive to succeed with article marketing!
A good title should attract and engage readers. You will want to ensure that you are unique and stand out when it comes to article marketing.
Again, you want to remain on top of your game when it comes to your marketing strategies and methods, but without first learning about these methods, you won?t be as successful as you would like. With the help of this article and the tips provided, you could learn about article marketing and gain a better understanding of a highly effective method of marketing online today.
