			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today, I was doing some research on how to get my website to the top of the search engines.&nbsp; After reading an article called the <a href="http://thebestseotools.org/the-seo-system-review-winner-of-best-seo-tool/">best seo tool</a>, I have come across something that I have been looking for for a long time:&nbsp; <a href="../">The SEO System</a>.</p>
<p>Why is this tool so great?</p>
<p>Well, first off, let me tell you that I have been trying to learn this idea of SEO ever since I started my blog.&nbsp; And I have to say, I have met with little success.&nbsp; The reason is that I don&#8217;t want to spend all of my time learning all of the science behind SEO.&nbsp;</p>
<p>To effectively learn SEO on the surface is simple, but it gets complex very quickly.&nbsp; You need to learn all about inbound linking, a href syntax, and a hundred other things.</p>
<p>The SEO System does all of this for you.&nbsp; You literally do not need to know anything.&nbsp; It tells you what you need to do to get your website to the top.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Everyday when you login to The SEO System, you are given tasks that you need to complete.&nbsp; Some days, I do all of the tasks while other days I just do not have time.&nbsp; But, it gives me a system to succeed.</p>
<p>This is what was lacking in my approach before.&nbsp; I had no system, simply a haphazard approach that got me nowhere.</p>
<p>The SEO System has given me the direction I need to take my blog to new places.</p>
<p>On top of that, it&#8217;s extremely easy to use and directs you to the exact pages and places that you need to be.&nbsp; Now, when I want to include a hyperlink somewhere, it&#8217;s simple.&nbsp; I just copy and paste from the system without problems.</p>
<p>For anybody who want to get their website to the top without having to learn SEO, The SEO System is&nbsp; a solution that you need right away.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was doing some research on <a href="http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/electronics-computers/index.htm">Consumer Reports </a>electronic section about my TIVO.&nbsp; You see I have all of these shows on TIVO that I would love to put on my laptop so I can watch them anywhere and everywhere that I go.</p>
<p>Imagine that?&nbsp; A roaming TIVO.&nbsp; How sweet would that be?</p>
<p>Anyway, I found one article entitled <a href="http://www.thisishowyoudoit.com/dvr-computer-record-transfer-movie-show/">how to record a show from dvr to a computer</a> which aspires to explain exactly what I want to do and I think that I got the grasp of what is required.&nbsp; After this article, and the many more out there. I have somewhat learned the process.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I am like many of you who look at the back of their TV and think <a href="http://tommyboyblog.blogetery.com/2009/12/01/what-are-these-inputs-on-the-back-of-my-tv/">What Are These Inputs on the Back of My TV</a>&#8230;seriously, it&#8217;s like a jungle behind my TV.  Not only a jungle of wires but a jungle of input devices.</p>
<p>My strategy had to be to take it one by one.&nbsp; Figure out what one is, mark it down, and then go off to the next.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In the end, I figured out how to hook up my DVR to my computer to record shows.&nbsp; It&#8217;s not as easy as one might suspect but not near as difficult either.&nbsp;</p>
<p>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok, I am at work right now and my computer is acting slow.&nbsp; So, I need to let my boss know that I need a new machine.&nbsp; I have been investigating this new processor called the Intel i7 and, apparently, this thing rules the roost.&nbsp; Thus, I have found a list of the&nbsp; <a href="http://astore.amazon.com/cheapestlaptopscomputers-20?_encoding=UTF8&amp;node=2">cheapest i7 laptops </a>and will be presenting it to my boss.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, normally I do not care about <strong>sales taxes</strong> but the other day I was looking into buying a new kick ass refrigerator and I had set aside about $1,200 to make this purchase.</p>
<p>So, what does that mean?&nbsp;</p>
<p>Well, of course it means that I was looking at all of the refrigerators $1,199 and under.&nbsp; However, I always neglect to think about the sales tax, which on big items can really add up.&nbsp;</p>
<p>So, for example in <em>California it is 8.25%</em> or something like that.&nbsp; Well, <em>how do you calculate a sales tax</em> of 8.25%?&nbsp;</p>
<p>I have always struggled with calculating tax of all varieties especially my April 15th tax bill.</p>
<p>Anyway, so I found this page called <a href="http://www.thisishowyoudoit.com/how-do-i-figure-sales-tax/">how do I figure sales tax</a> which answered my very question and it made the math really easy to do.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Basically, while at the store, I realized that I could only buy a fridge for $1,099 because sales tax was going to be in the neighborhood of $100.&nbsp;</p>
<p>While there with my iPad, the man at the store told me that I could even do <a href="http://sarahbraxtel.blogetery.com/2011/01/24/doing-taxes-on-my-ipad/">tax on my iPad </a>when it came time to do Federal Taxes.</p>
<p>How swee is that?</p>
<p>I might now just do my Federal Tax while I am shopping for the fridge!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My last post was in January where I wrote about how I have been <b>listening to country music</b>.&nbsp; Well, maybe I have not written in awhile because I have not stopped listening to these <a href="http://thetoplistonline.com/top-country-songs/">top country hits</a> especially Lady Antebellum.&nbsp; </p>
<p>Like my peeps, I have been <a href="http://mydailymusings.blogsome.com/2009/12/31/kickin-it-country-style-this-new-year/">Kickin’ It Country Style This New Year</a> and my new favorite group is consuming the charts.&nbsp; Right now, Lad Antebellum is taking up like 4 places on the country Top 10 list.</p>
<p>Of course, the song that everyone is raving about right now is the one called Need You Now.&nbsp; It is a beautiful piece of music without a doubt and this song is one of everybody&#8217;s favorites.</p>
<p>However, my favorite country song right now of any group has got to this one called American Honey by LA.&nbsp; This rules over the Need You Now track as it shows the groups diversity and exposes their true raw talent.</p>
<p>Plus, I fancy myself a bit of an American Honey&nbsp; <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll start writing more lately guys and girls&#8230;I Promise!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Music needs to be an essential part of your life.  I swear&#8230;it does.  And this morning, I am listening to the <a href="http://thetoplistonline.com/top-country-songs/">top country hits</a> and buying a few of them.</p>
<p>We all have our preferred type of music.&nbsp; Mine is classic rock.&nbsp; But just because it is your preference, this does not mean that you should be exclusive with THAT type of music.&nbsp; You must broaden your horizons.&nbsp; It&#8217;s a must!!!</p>
<p>For instance, I read an article called <a href="http://hallsofhank.blogspot.com/2010/01/lady-antebellum-on-top-of-charts.html">Lady Antebellum on Top of the Charts</a> and, frankly, I had never hear of Lady Antebellum.&nbsp; However, I gave them a listen and realized that I was missing out on something great.&nbsp;&nbsp; You simply cannot limit yourself to one type of music.</p>
<p>There is another band that has piqued my interest this Sunday morning as well called Zac Brown Band.&nbsp; I am not sure this fits in the country category as it sounds a bit bluegrass Rock N Roll to me.&nbsp; Either way, I love it.&nbsp; I also found some &#8220;live recordings&#8221; of Zac Brown and absolutely loved what they were putting out.</p>
<p>My point?&nbsp; Music can drastically improve how you feel everyday.&nbsp; If you are down, listen to some music&#8211;and music outside of your comfort zone&#8211;to really expand who you are and make you happier.</p>
<p>Trust me; it works.&nbsp; After <i>goin&#8217; country</i> this morning, I might just stay here for a bit <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lately, I have been investigating <a href="http://www.thisishowyoudoit.com/how-to-open-a-roth-ira/">How To Open A Roth IRA</a> as I am exploring my retirement options.&nbsp; </p>
<p>Currently, I contribute almost the maximum to my 401k but do not save much beyond that so I am looking for other retirement vehicles.&nbsp; It&#8217;s just hard to save money outside of my retirement fund because I like to spend it <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> &nbsp; Who doesn&#8217;t?</p>
<p>Anyway, if you do your retirement fund right, you will have a lot of money for your retirement years.&nbsp; This is why I am trying to max out my 401k every year and looking for other vehicles as well so that I will have money when I retire.&nbsp; </p>
<p>Thus, as I am <a href="http://blicious.blogsome.com/2009/12/12/investigating-retirement-options/">investigating retirement options</a>, two possibilities stick out:&nbsp; an IRA or a Roth IRA.</p>
<p>I have realized that I can choose either of these and the main difference is that, with the IRA, the money is taxed when I take it and with the Roth IRA, the money is taxed before I put it in.&nbsp; </p>
<p>This is a hard decision.&nbsp; If I go with regular Roth, I have more money in my pocket now.&nbsp; And if I go with Roth, I have more money in my pocket later and less now.&nbsp; But retirement is for later, right?</p>
<p>Thus, I am going to open a Roth IRA and contribute the max each year of $5,000.&nbsp; This will be less than $500 a month and will set me up nicely in my retirement years.&nbsp; I will have to sacrifice a little right now but will have nothing to worry about later in life!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday, I went to the market and wanted to cook something good because I am on a health kick.&nbsp; So, what to cook I wondered?&nbsp; </p>
<p>Well, I had read that Salmon is very good for you.&nbsp; On a recent trip to Alaska, I actually went to a Salmon factory where they show you how the salmon are raised. </p>
<p>This is truly cool.&nbsp; The Salmon are born, go live their lives, and then return to where they were born to die.&nbsp; They have like a homing device.&nbsp; I fully recommend this factory tour when you go to Alaska.</p>
<p>So, I am in the supermarket yesterday and I asked for Salmon.&nbsp; They pointed me to the salmon and I chose one.&nbsp; Then, a lady appeared behind me and said, &#8220;Don&#8217;t get that.&nbsp; It&#8217;s farmed and not good for you.&#8221;&nbsp; </p>
<p>I had read about this but almost accidentally bought farmed salmon which is not healthy and thus against my rules.&nbsp; I finally found the fresh salmon and a detailed page on <a href="http://www.thisishowyoudoit.com/how-to-cook-salmon/">how to cook salmon</a> and then I set about the process.&nbsp; </p>
<p>Salmon is so delicate, much more so that steak.&nbsp; But, in the end, I did an ok job and pleased myself and others.&nbsp; With a little more practice, I think I&#8217;ll be able to make the perfect salmon!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How &#8217;bout that?&nbsp; </p>
<p>Martha is learning Spanish.&nbsp; Got to throw everything in the mix right.&nbsp; Where I live the population is now more than 20% Spanish but that is not really why I want to learn to speak Spanish.&nbsp; It&#8217;s a reason but its not the main reason.</p>
<p>People have reasons for <a href="http://richardinthemoment.wordpress.com/2009/04/18/expanding-my-horizons-with-spanish/">Expanding Their Horizons With Spanish</a> and I have my own.&nbsp; And they involve travel.&nbsp; Recently, I was reviewing a <a href="http://thebestlistonline.com/best-way-to-learn-spanish/">list of countries that speak spanish</a> and was quite enthused to realize that all of the places that I want to travel are Spanish speaking countries.</p>
<p>I mean, check this out:&nbsp; Agentina, Columbia, Costa Rica, Chile, Panama&#8230;the only one missing will be Brazil and I hear that you can get by pretty well there too.&nbsp; So, all of that is why I am learning Spanish.</p>
<p>I took a bunch of Spanish when I was younger&#8211;probably 9 years&#8211;and I don&#8217;t remember much more than Cerveza.&nbsp; Pero, no importa!</p>
<p>Voy a aprender espanol amigos?&nbsp; Que pienses en eso?&nbsp; <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
