Internet technology offers vast opportunities to promote your business with virtually no advertising borders, and you can find countless sources online directing you towards budget marketing via pay-per-click search engines for maximum effectiveness in the information age.

Enterprising people know all the benefits of optimizing their online advertising, and because of this fact the pay-per-click (PPC) technique has been developed to meet the need. PPC is certainly at the cutting edge of Internet advertising today, because you bid or budget on the exact amount you want to put into your advertising campaign, giving you the choice to state just how much youll pay each time someone clicks on your ad.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbYTiqZBpi0[/youtube]

For instance, if you bid five cents a click, thats how little youll pay for your advertising – and youll only have to pay that five cents each time a consumer clicks on your ad! Budget marketing via pay-per-click search engines should encompass the following integral steps of creating, optimizing and managing your advertising campaign or sponsored search on the most widely used search engines including Google, Yahoo, MSN, Earthlink, American Online, Ask Jeeves and CNN.com – just to name a famous few!

The most widely touted benefit of budget marketing via pay-per-click search engines is that it delivers your product information and your web site to the very consumers online who are searching for such products, be it business, science or technology-related, trips and travel, car buying, entertainment ideas or wedding planning! Your business specifically reaches those already interested in knowing more, and enthusiasts of budget marketing via pay-per-click search engines will tell you that no other advertising medium can give you that kind of bang for your advertising buck.

Other pluses of budgeting via PPC are that your ad can be targeted to regions you specify, whether you want the entire world to know, or just focus on your local area at the moment. Your ad can also be tracked towards search engines that receive the highest amount of keywords specific to the product or service on your website. Whether you have a home based business or youve just been appointed Director of a countrywide multi-national, your business will benefit from budget marketing via pay-per-click search engines.

Today’s ruling from Thailand’s Constitutional Court sees the Prime Minister, Somchai Wongsawat, removed from office, barred from politics, and the People’s Power Party (PPP) dissolved. The allegations leading to this were of vote buying in the last election.

The decision has already eased tension in the country, with the anti-government People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) announcing they will end their siege of Bangkok’s two main international airports. Red-shirted pro-government protesters were dismayed at the court’s decision. Initially they blockaded the Constitutional Court buildings to try and prevent the case being heard; following its relocation they moved on to the Administrative Court to protest a decision they claim is anti-democratic.

In addition to the PPP being disbanded and outlawed, two other parties in the ruling coalition were found guilty. The Chart Thai and Matchimathipataya parties were also outlawed and, between the three parties, 109 members barred from all involvement in the electoral process – including the right to vote. Among those disenfranchised were three ex-Prime Ministers. Those remaining from the executive of the outlawed parties have stated their intention to reform under a new name and attempt to continue in government.

HAVE YOUR SAY
Should those not disbarred hold a general election or, as reported, try to carry on in government?
Add or view comments

Prior to the PAD announcing that their airport blockades would end, another grenade attack at one of the airports killed one and injured around 20 other protesters. Yesterday saw the PAD announce plans to abandon the Government House compound they have occupied since August. Following numerous grenade attacks on their encampment there, they elected to move to the airport protest sites and leave what has become a regular target; it is expected to take until Thursday to remove all belongings accumulated at the key site since the August invasion.

Somchai, brother-in-law to the fugitive ex-PM Thaksin Shinawatra, has been a target of the PAD since he assumed the office following his predecessor being ousted over a conflict of interest issue. The PPP and Somchai are seen as a proxy for Thaksin and his banned Thai Rak Thai party, which the military overthrew in a bloodless coup in 2006.

What could be better than hanging out a brand new deck grilling and entertaining friends and family this summer? Not much. Adding a deck to the backyard is a great way to spruce up the house and provide entertaining space. The best part is that building a deck is a do-it-yourself project as long as you have the proper power tools.

Here are some of the basic pieces you can easily rent at your local equipment rental store to build a beautiful deck your family and friends can enjoy this summer and year round:

1. Miter Saw – This is the most important power tool to have in your deck-building arsenal. Building a deck is much more than throwing down some planks, it is a precise business. The miter saw makes sure that your cuts and angles are precise for a perfect fit. It also gives you the freedom to build your deck in a patterned design instead of just vertical or horizontal planks. Cutting angles in the planks with a miter saw allows you to do this with ease.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBA3_-rYrLA[/youtube]

2. Circular Saw – Need to trim the ends of the planks after you’ve screwed them down? A circular saw is easy to simply run down the length of the deck, making the necessary cuts.

3. Sander – Unless you are using composite materials, you will definitely need a reliable and strong orbital sander to make sure the planks and railings are smooth and splinter-free. For composite materials, you will still want to sand the ends of the planks if you’ve had to cut them.

4. Reciprocating Saw – This is also called a sawzall. It is a long thin saw that can reach into those difficult to reach places. It is especially important for making those cuts where your circular saw won’t reach like under the decking.

5. Router – This power tool is great for putting the finishing touches on your deck. Using a router, you can add some scroll work or other decorative touches to your railings or curve the ends of the planks. It allows you to spice up the design and give it your personal touch.

6. Drill – A sturdy reliable power drill is essential to driving the hundreds of screws that secure the planks to the frame. Your drill will need a lot of torque to get the long decking screws through the planks and into the frame.

7. Auger – Yes, you can use a manual hole digger for the anchors. But, if your ground is too hard or you just want to make it easier, an auger can make faster work of the holes.

You can easily rent tools to get your project done. When working outside with these power tools, always use precaution. Wear your safety glasses and keep track of where the power cords are so you don’t cut them. Make sure they aren’t anywhere near standing water too.

Use the right power tools and you can have a brand new deck in not time. Oh, it also makes a great opportunity for some guy-bonding time so solicit help from your buddies to make the work go by faster and make it more fun!

Major League Baseball is moving the upcoming Anaheim Angels at Cleveland Indians series to Miller Park in Milwaukee after snow and cold has led to the cancellation of the Tribe’s four-game home opener against the Seattle Mariners at Jacobs Field. The games, which were rescheduled to be played in double-headers on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, will need to be made-up later this season. A venue change was needed to prevent more postponed games; cold temperatures in Cleveland are forecasted throughout the week, and precipitation is expected Wednesday.

The snow started falling Friday, the day of the Indians home opener against the Mariners, and never let up. After three “snow delays”, the game was postponed, just one out away from being considered an “official game”. The ground crew has been working nonstop, on Saturday clearing 10 inches off the field only to have it begin to snow heavily just hours before the game, leading to another postponement.

“ This is an unbelievable situation; We’ve had snow, we’ve had cold weather, but not everything at once, backing it up from day to day to day. The great uncertainty is still the lake-effect [snow] and the weather. Until the temperature gets above freezing, we’re not going to be able to do anything. Obviously the field underneath is iffy, at best, with all this snow and the way everything played out, trying to get the field ready. Everybody’s going to pitch, but it’s just a matter of when. The challenge is to keep these guys ready and know when to have them throw a side. Obviously, they can come in and play catch. With a foot of snow on the field, no one’s going outside to play catch. ”
 

Further complicating matters is the fact that Seattle is not scheduled to return to Cleveland during the regular season, so make-up games would need to be played during the teams’ off-days. The Tribe, who haven’t played since Wednesday’s loss to the White Sox, haven’t been resting either. All players reported Sunday for indoor practice. Cleveland outfielder David Dellucci said “I’ve been trying to get a partner to play long toss on the field, and nobody wants to throw with me. I think this is the first time in my career I’ve wanted to throw and no one wanted to. Usually, it’s the other way around.”

Neurofibromatosis (NF) is a genetic condition causing benign tumors (neurofibromas) to grow along certain types of nerves and, in addition, it can affect the development of bones or skin. There are several variants of the disease but type 1 and type 2 NF account for the vast majority of cases.

The disease manifestations can vary from very mild to severe. Major symptoms include growths on and under the skin; skin pigmentations called café au lait spots in type 1; acoustic nerve tumors and consequent hearing loss in type 2. Growths can affect nearly all parts of the body, and pressure on nearby structures can cause a wide variety of complications. There is a small risk that the tumors transform into malignant cancerous lesions.

NF is one of the most common single-gene human diseases; around 1 in 2,500-4,000 live births are affected by NF-1, whereas NF-2 occurs in about 1 in 50,000-120,000. Both type 1 and 2 are autosomal dominant conditions, meaning that only one copy of the mutated gene need be inherited to pass the disorder. A child of a parent with neurofibromatosis and an unaffected parent will have a 50% chance of inheriting the disorder. The gene responsible for NF-1 and possibly NF-2 is thought to function as a tumor suppressor gene.

In most cases of neurofibromatosis 1, patients can live normal and productive lives. In about 25-40% of patients there is an associated learning disability with or without ADHD. In some cases of neurofibromatosis 2, the damage to nearby vital structures, such as the cranial nerves and the brainstem, can be life-threatening. When tumors are causing pain or disfiguration, surgery is thus far the only proven beneficial treatment option.

Reggie Bibbs is a 43-year-old-man living in Houston, Texas. Mr Bibbs was born with a genetic disease called neurofibromatosis (NF), which causes him to develop tumors on his body (see infobox on the right). NF can be a subtle disease, but in Bibbs’ case it has left him with a disfigured face and deformed leg. But he is happy with the way he looks, and doesn’t want to change his appearance to please other people. He has launched a successful campaign entitled “Just Ask”, and that’s just what Wikinews did in a video-interview.

The interview was prepared by Wikinews reporter Michaël Laurent with the help of Bertalan Meskó (who has a popular genetics and web 2.0 blog). Their questions were sent to a close friend of Mr. Bibbs, Lou Congelio, who kindly conducted the interview.

The Canadian PM Stephen Harper spoke with astronaut Steve MacLean over the phone yesterday from Ottawa. MacLean was on the STS-115 (space shuttle Atlantis). He is also the second Canadian to walk in space.

Harper congratulated MacLean and asked him questions, including one from Harper’s son, Ben. The question was: “What time do the astronauts go to bed?” “On our mission, with where the sun is, we have 55 minutes of daylight followed by 75 minutes of darkness … and that does affect your circadian rhythm,” MacLean replied. The astronauts’ sleep pattern “is driven by the rendezvous that we do with the station. That time is the key milestone and then we arrange our sleep schedules around that.” “But you can tell your son that sleeping in space is wonderful. We all sleep down on the main deck, some of us right side up, some of us are on the side and some of us are upside down. There’s more orientations up here, basically.”

Harper told MacLean that the country is proud of his achievements. “I’m sure it’s an adventure of a lifetime and … I expect your mission will inspire millions of Canadians, young people, and even some who are talking to you today to become interested in space and science and technology,” Harper said.

Harper wished MacLean well as the mission winds down. “I know you said … you wanted to bring home a gold medal for Canada, from everything I’ve seen on your performance yesterday, you are well on your way,” Harper said.

Canadian school children also got a chance to ask MacLean about his time aboard the shuttle.

MacLean walked in space on Wednesday. MacLean, with fellow Atlantis crew member Dan Burbank started their six-hour spacewalk at the international space station at 5:05 am ET. They are focusing their attention and tools on a ferris-wheel-like rotary joint that will allow two solar arrays, once unfurled, to always face the sun as the space station circles Earth. The solar arrays will supply a quarter of the space lab’s power when it is completed by 2010.

The key to a country cottage theme is flowers. Use wallpaper borders with flowers or outdoor cutouts on the walls. Other options include stencils to create various outdoor scenes. Only include a tree if the room is relatively large. Items to add include butterflies, birds, bunnies, cats, and a picket fence.

Use beddings, throw rugs, and curtains with flowers, flower flowers (and perhaps some butterflies as well). The key is to keep everything light and flowery.

2. Chase the blues away, with blue walls, wallpaper and wall art

Consider painting the walls sky blue, to represent-well, the sky. You can further embellish the walls with a variety of wall art, such as leaves metal wall hangings. This will help to create the aura of a garden. Such wall art is available in a variety of shapes and sizes. Make sure that the wall art complements other elements in the room, such as the carpeting, furniture, drapes, and beddings.

3. Catch butterfly items for a butterfly garden theme

Use wallpaper cutouts of butterflies and flowers, and then attach them in various places on the bedroom’s walls. Another idea is to paint grass or a pond at the base of the walls, to emphasize the garden theme. You can also find a wide variety of butterfly items in department stores, such as comforters, drawer pulls, lamps, pillows, rugs, and sheets.

4. Let your imagination run wild with a fairy garden theme.

Ben Shephard has announced his departure from GMTV, the current television breakfast programme on ITV in the United Kingdom, having been a presenter on the programme for ten years. His current contract ends in April 2010, but he is expected to leave by the end of the Summer of 2010, according to the Press Association.

Initially, Shephard only presented an entertainment section of the television programme before being given a promotion to the sofa in 2005. He is the third presenter to leave GMTV within the last year, after the departures of Fiona Phillips and Penny Smith.

According to a statement released from Ben Shephard’s agent: “Ben’s two-year contract with GMTV is up at the end of April. Earlier this year, his management made it clear that he would not be renewing it, but would be happy to stay on temporarily during this transitional period. Ben is excited about moving on after 10 incredible years and will be focusing on a number of new projects with ITV and other channels.”

Adrian Chiles, who recently announced his departure from the BBC after modifications were made to The One Show — a show that he presented with Christine Bleakley — was recently reported to be appearing as a presenter on GMTV in the future.
