Who Are the Best Video Game Icons?
Videogames culture has never yet made a household name of it's designers, producers or Directors. A famous name is justified by some genuinely game defining work. The list of these industry players is endless but the limelight always goes to the character that has been created in the video game.
Console game designers have changed the actual characters over time. This is done with advancing technology. What is good is that the designers have aimed to preserve the iconography while making the stars of their games more three -dimensional. Who is your favorite game icon? How many of these can you remember?
Pac-man 1980 Once king of the arcade and originally called Puck man. A yellow munching machine that looked like a Pizza with a missing slice.
Sonic the Hedgehog 1991 The spiky blue mascot has been almost prolific as his rival Mario. Sonic was all about one thing, Speed.
Lara Croft 2001 England's favorite pistol firing treasure hunter. The top heavy original was later turned into an elegantly athletic model.
Pikachu 1998 The most famous of all Pokemon. The super fast mascot is still catchable in Pokemon games and has been spotted in other video games.
Console makers are also associated by Mascot characters. Nintendo has Mario who has starred in well over a hundred games. His first appearance was in the platform game Donkey Kong in 1980. PlayStation, Xbox, Gamecube, Gameboy, Wii, and DS, they all have their favorite character
As long as new console games are being invented, more iconic characters will appear. Enjoy your gaming.

First Move Advantage in Chess
Belated pop star Michael Jackson coined the immortal words "It doesn't mater if you are black or white". The world is certainly rallying to make this true in everyday life, but is it true for a game of chess? Many chess players have at one point questioned whether moving first is an advantage. This article attempts to put this question to rest.
Introduction
Chess has been played for more than 1500 years. Although the piece names, colors and moves have changed, the fact that somebody must move first has always remained constant. A game of chess between well versed players relies solely on skill, and skill alone. With the element of luck removed, it would seem plausible that the player who moves first would have significant advantage. Gratefully, that is not always the case.
Statistics
Statistically, white does win more often than black. The advantage is very small though. Reviews of chess games played at tournaments and online chess sites show that white has an approximate 2% advantage over black. Many argue that this variation is so small that it could be attributed to other factors. The psychology of moving second for example may tempt a player to begin on a defensive footing. This alone could attribute to the variation.
Most statistics have borrowed from games played at the elite level. Anecdotally, it appears that first-move advantage reduces as the experience of the player reduces. The white advantage of those who play casually appears to be minuscule.
Furthermore, most players do not worry about the first-move advantage as statistically a player will play both black and white an equal number of times. A player's win/lose ratio will reflect this fact.
Black Advocates
There have been many protesters denying the existence of first-move advantage. Most notably is Adreas Adorhan. Andreas is a Grandmaster of Chess who has written several books on first-move advantage. His famous work "Black is OK!" proposes aggressive opening ideas for black in an attempt to eradicate first-move advantage. An excerpt of his latest edition "Black is OK forever!" can be found at Google Books.
Conclusion
It does certainly appear that white has a slight advantage over black. The advantage is so small, however, that it could be easily attributed to psychology alone. Unless you are an expert player, first-move advantage can generally be ignored.

The Dark Magician Girl
If you are one of the millions who watched the cartoon series, then you probably already know about Yugi's Dark Magician. A few players reading this article may even have entire decks formed around Black Chaos or Dark Magicians. In case you have done the latter, you will probably want to make sure you a particular card in your deck: The Dark Magician Girl.
The card can and may be the perfect card to compliment your magician based deck. Why? Because, Dark Magician Girl not only starts with 2000 attack power, but the card also gives a special ability. The special ability is that it's attack power is raised by 300 for every single magician card in either player's graveyard, or both!
Think about going head to head against a player with a magician deck while you simultaneously use your own magician deck. Playing this card after a few magician cards have hit the graveyard can help your Dark Magician Girl easily break 3000 attack power and become a super powerful monster.
The card might be a rare, but it can easily be worth paying more to get a hold of just to add to your duelist arsenal.
Clearly the actual Dark Magician card is still more powerful than "the girl version" since it has the same special ability in addition to being able to increase attack power for all dragon cards. However, using both cards in combination can make either considerably stronger. Owning one or the other should cause you to consider getting the other card since they compliment each other so well.
Even more powerful are the Chaos Magicians. Despite the fact that these magicians have higher attack power, if you lose them in play they can each add 300 attack power to your Magician Girl. Using these magicians first can be a strong way to open an attack while using your girl card to bat clean up after losing them, and make her comparably as strong as each of the Chaos Magicians. Finally, you can follow up with a Dark Magician and have an attack power of 3700!
Clearly there are many ways to play these cards in combination and you are encouraged to try them out on your own.

How to Play Bakugan Battle Brawlers Card Game
Setup of the Bakugan
Each player will need to choose at least 3 of any color Bakugan (originally in their closed form that resembles a marble). When they are in their open form they are battle ready creatures. Preferably you would choose the higher "G-Power" Bakugan (located on the Bakugan itself), because usually the higher the G-Power the better. There are exceptions, but I will explain that later.
Every Bakugan will also have a Gate Card (1 of each color) and an Ability Card (1 of each color). For example, if you are playing with 3 Bakugan. You will have a total of 3 Gate Cards and 3 Ability Cards.
A Gate Card will be the card that contains a heavy metal in it. The card itself has bonus attributes for each color and instructions. So be careful in reading what extra instructions you have to do.
An Ability Card will not have a heavy metal in it. It will be a lighter card. These cards have specific instructions on when to be played and how they are played. So carefully read these cards before you choose to play them. These cards if used effectively can sway the battle in your favor. Some Ability Cards also have bonus attributes as well.
Have all the Bakugan closed at the beginning of the game and do not show your Gate Cards or Ability Cards to your opponents.
You will need find a smooth and leveled playing surface or use a Bakugan Battle Arena. Whatever you use make sure it is a medium-large sized area.
Playing the Bakugan Game
The most important part of the whole game. Who goes first. It is usually the youngest person goes first. But to make things fair you can roll a dice or however you want to decide who goes first. Once the person is chosen the game can officially begin.
Each player puts one Gate Card face down onto the field furthest from themselves. The cards have to touch each other.
The first person will start rolling their Bakugan onto the field (you cannot toss the Bakugan). You can roll it like a marble or you can use a specially made Bakugan hand launcher. Once the Bakugan opens up (called "standing") on a Gate Card it is the next person's turn. Even if the Bakugan does not open up, but is still on a Gate Card it is still considered standing.
If you have two Bakugan that is on the same card, then the first Bakugan on the card has to move to another Gate Card. It can be moved to an empty Gate Card or it can be moved to a Gate Card that has an opponent's Bakugan on it.
If there is no possible way the Bakugan can be moved, then you automatically win that Gate Card and you place it in your use pile. You will also need to remove the two Bakugan from play as well.
If your Bakugan knocks off your opponents Bakugan off of the card, then you automatically get the Gate Card.
If there are two Bakugans on a Gate Card, one from you and one from your opponent, then you battle for the Gate Card.
Compare both of the G-Powers on the Bakugan. Then flip the Gate Card over. Read and follow the instructions.
If you want you can use your Ability Cards at this time. The player that started the battle will get to play their Ability Cards Card first. Remember to follow the instructions on the Ability Card, because it is very specific. If there is a bonus attribute on the card, then apply it at this time. Remember Ability Cards can only be used once the entire game. Once it is used it will go into the used pile.
After that is done, then apply the final attribute bonuses on the Gate Card and calculate the G-Power for both the battling Bakugan. The colors indicate how much G-Power to add to which colored Bakugan. The highest G-Powered Bakugan wins the Gate Card. An exception is that some Gate Cards have instructions that say the lowest G-Power Bakugan wins.
If there is a tie, then each person will close their Bakugan and roll it. Whoever is the first person to roll their Bakugan onto the same card will win the Gate Card.
The Gate Card and the Bakugan are placed into each other's respective used pile. If any Bakugan is in the used pile, then you cannot use them again until all your Bakugan are in the used pile. This prevents players from using the same Bakugan over and over again.
The game continues on until there are no more Gate Cards on the field. Once there are no more Gate Cards then you will set up the field again. Use only Gate Cards that have not been placed in the used pile.
*(Series 2) the winner is the player who captures 3 Gate Cards first.
^ (Series 1) everyone battles until all the Gate Cards are captured. Each player adds up all the HSP (Hole Sector Points) from their captured Gate Cards. It will be marked on the Gate Cards itself (Series 1 Only). Each Bakugan is worth 100 HSP. Add them all up and the player with the most HSP wins the game. ^
Each player will need to choose at least 3 of any color Bakugan (originally in their closed form that resembles a marble). When they are in their open form they are battle ready creatures.

How to Solve a Rubix Cube Revenge 4x4x4
The Rubix cube is the second easiest puzzle in the world. The first easiest is the Rubix Pocket Cube, which is just the corner solution algorithm. Actually, Pyraminx and a couple of others that were popular around the time of Rubix Cube are much, much easier than even the Pocket Cube. But once you have mastered the Cube, a lot of others become much easier for you.
Coming up with your own algorithms for moving things around when the cube is half-solved (so that nothing that has already been accomplished is destroyed) is mind numbingly complicated. Making these algorithms very short is even more difficult. Personally, I figured out my own algorithms for the top and bottom layers, but for the bottom layer I had to resort to algorithms I had memorized from a solution book.
I finally had a breakthrough on Rubix Revenge (4x4x4), which I never actually figured out how to solve on my own, although admittedly I needed a few hints from a Web site before I saw how it could be done. My basic strategy is to match up all the centers and edge pieces, and then solve it as if it were a regular 3x3x3 rubix cube. What's really aggravating about the Revenge, however, is that using this strategy it is possible to get down to the very end and discover a situation that is simply impossible on a 3x3x3 cube (e.g. one edge piece that needs to be flipped, or two edge pieces that need to be exchanged - or, worse, both). The former requires going back almost to the beginning of edge-piece matching and the latter requires going back to about the middle of the 3x3x3 solution, and you can't tell which you need to do (or both!) until you are almost done with the last layer.
There are probably more efficient ways to solve the 4x4x4 rubix cube in fact, I have a solution book for it that is much shorter - but frankly I prefer a solution I can understand to one I must memorize.

Get Paid For Playing Videos Games
If you want to do this, there's only rule for this to work, is that you have to enjoy playing video games, if this is you, then you can get paid for playing video games. Imagine that you are getting paid for sitting down and doing one of you favorite hobbies playing video games.
The great thing about being a game tester is that you have multiple options too choose from:
· You can play games on your computer (offline and offline games)
· You can play games on your favorite console (playstation, xbox, wii, etc...)
· You can play games on your favorite handheld (psp, nds, etc...)
· You can play games no matter what type is your favorite (shooting, action, role playing games, etc...)
I'm going to tell how this is possible. You know that companies make money when people buy their games; these companies are always competing to make the best games so they can have more sales and build their reputation. For this they need gamers to try out their games and give their opinion about it. That's why these companies looking for gamers like you.
This is a dream that just became a reality; imagine being a game tester, where you have the ability to try out games before they come out, give your opinion to the company so they know how the make the game you're are trying out. Imagine how much other gamers like you are going to be happy when they play the same game you tested and they enjoy the game because of you.
You don't need any experience to become a game tester, just love and passion for video games. Now is time to turn that dream a reality like I did and you'll be responsible for companies making top quality games.

How to Be an SEO Guru
SEO is not rocket science; it's much more difficult than rocket science. To become a ninja-level SEO master takes years of practice for most people, and like a ninja if you don't practice, one quickly loses one's skills. The reason for this is that the search algorithms shift constantly, and as they are well guarded secrets, you never know what the search engineers are up to. No, it's not rocket science; It's more like reverse engineering a UFO that you can only see off in the distance and whose propulsion system constantly shifts gears.
It is extremely difficult to be a true expert in this field. The competition is fierce, and one mistake can cost you months of work. If you are working for a client, you had better be certain that you do not get their site thrown into the "sandbox," meaning that it will never be found. This is like being exiled to the far reaches of the Internet where only the most intrepid explorers will ever find them. It's not good for business.
For this reason, it is extremely important to choose the right SEO company or employee if you are in business. If you want to become that person (the right SEO company or employee), here is what you need to do:
Administer at least five websites for at least a year. Do not link them to each other. Each is its own little petri dish that must not be contaminated.
Be scientific about it. Develop theories and test them rigorously. Keep track of results. Note changes in the way the search engines index your site and in the way your visitors find it, and connect those changes to actions that you have taken (link building, keyword weight, social networking, etc.)
Learn how to find the right keywords. This is not as simple as finding words that people search for and that are not insanely competitive. In this, you have to be somewhat intuitive. What keyword combination is a potential customer likely to use as opposed to a bored web surfer?
Use different tools until you find one that works. I have my favorite, but I'm not allowed to mention it. Follow the link in the resource box and surf around my blog. You'll figure out what it is. It may not be for you, but you can try it free.
Get at least 20 pages to the top for fairly competitive keywords. This is what turns prospects into clients.
Be a ninja. Once you figure out how to do it, take a cue from the people who write the search algorithms and keep it to yourself. Also train and improve continuously so that your skills do not slip.
That is how to become an SEO guru who commands top dollar with good reason, the good reason being that you know how to attract the right people, not just the most people. More on that later.

WordPress Plugins and Themes Can Work Against SEO
In SEO, less is often more. There are certain Search Engine Optimization (SEO) WordPress options, Themes and Plugins which significantly enhance SEO. These same factors may also work against visits from Search Engines.
SEO is so much more than purely links to your site and content. SEO is qualitative more than quantitative; the quality is much more important than the amount of optimization performed. It is also about making it easy for the Search Engines to understand your content.
Help, SERP Descriptions are Wrong!
I was recently asked to assist a new client as they had employed an SEO consultant who had performed a mass of SEO tasks however visits from Google, Bing, Yahoo and Ask were falling fast. The SEO basics were certainly in place; inlinks, meta elements (description, title and keywords in the HTML head section of the page / document), fresh content etc. But something was wrong! I then looked at the Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs) on the main engines and noticed that the description of the pages and posts were not what it should have been. The major Search Engines do occasionally use text from the page itself as well as from DMOZ and the like for the SERP descriptions however it is most common that the description meta element text will be used if available on the page or post.
Why are the Page and Post Descriptions Incorrect?
So why was the wrong description text in the SERPs? For this we need to understand the architecture of the Website itself; the Website is running WordPress with a popular Theme framework. There are also numerous active Plugins (most are very widely used Plugins). Looking at the WordPress options and general setup all appeared fine. Investigating the variables on the numerous Plugins and the Theme also proved that the options were acceptable (and enhanced toward optimal SEO). Taking a more thorough look at the HTML of the pages and posts revealed why the SERP descriptions were incorrect; there were at least two description meta elements on every page and post.
Multiple Description Meta in WordPress
Google and some other Search Engines take notice only of the first description meta element so if the text in that element is incorrect then the description in the SERP will likely be incorrect. What was happening on this particular Site was that the head section of the HTML page / document was attaining multiple description text from the numerous SEO WordPress options, Theme and Plugins. Some of these are better than others at auto-creating description meta element text so whichever was the first description text in the HTML head section became what the appeared in the SERPS (for example, the 'related posts' text was often being populated as the description meta text).
WordPress, Themes and Plugins Creating Bad SEO
It was obvious that the Website had been over optimized and the SEO consultant didn't fully understand how the technology / architecture fits together; WordPress, the Theme and the Plugins need to be considered as a comprehensive whole rather than individually. Individually, the SEO aspects of the Website were optimized however once each of the 'bits' (e.g. the Wordpress Options, plugins etc.) were working together they actually caused more SEO harm than good. If the SEO consultant had disabled all SEO options he or she didn't specifically need instead of enabling every SEO option available then the destructive SERP problem wouldn't have occurred.
Problem Resolved - SEO Paying Dividends
The end result is that the damage has been reversed. Through focusing on SEO objectives and SEO quality, the number of visits directed from the Search Engines is improving. The damage however was totally avoidable.
As a note, I intentionally haven't named the theme nor plugins being used as the SEO deficiencies were caused through inadequate Site setup and testing and not through WordPress or the theme or Plugins.

Insider Secrets to Getting Ranked in Google
If you have a website, you need traffic. In today's world, that means you need Google. But Google just doesn't give out the G love to anyone. No, big G is a lot like those popular girls you remember from high school. They only respected you if another pretty girl gave you some props.
For example, if you were ever lucky enough to have a pretty friend or cousin go with you to the mall or out somewhere where the popular girls from your high school might be, then your popularity would really get a lift if one of these girls happened to see you. It's as if the attractiveness of your companion is somehow miraculously transferred over to you.
That, in a nutshell, is how the big G works.
Instead of physical attractiveness, Google likes something called "PR". Not the PR you might be thinking, but Google's PR is called "Page Rank". The term, named for one of Google's original founders, Larry Page, is essentially a popularity score (there's more to it than that, but popularity is a huge piece of the puzzle).
The Google PR Score
The main driver of your Google PR score is the number of links your site has on other sites that have a higher PR score than your own. PR scores range from 0 which is essentially no PR, to 10, which is unheard of, off the charts PR. Google themselves have a 10, so does Adobe. Microsoft has an 8, most all sites fall below 8. If you have a PR rank of 6 or better, you are considered an "Authority site" in Google's eyes.
So, in essence, your site will rank higher in most cases, if its PR score is higher than another site that is optimized for the same keywords as your site. This is not always the case however; I've seen sites with lower PR scores outrank sites with higher PR scores for a given keyword. This is where the "Secrets to getting ranked in Google" part comes into play.
It takes a few years and many backlinks from higher PR sites than your own in order to build up your site's PR score. In most cases, you can get to a PR3 in about a year or so with a moderate amount of backlinks, but it much harder to get to PR4 than PR1-3 combined.
So, what is the secret that allows sites with lower PR scores to outrank sites with higher PR scores? The answer is on-site SEO (Search Engine Optimization). SEO tends to get a bad name in some circles because it denotes building sites for search engines rather than for humans, which is a definite "NO, NO" in the eyes of Google (though their WebCrawler certainly appreciates and rewards those that do).
First you need a great Title
For your site to excel at on-page SEO, you need to have a great TITLE, H1 tag and a keyword density of between 6-12% for your main keyword phrase. Do this and you can consistently outrank higher PR sites for the same searches in many niches (A niche, or even micro niche is a highly defined market and is usually identified with 3 or more keywords, "alienware gaming pcs" for example, rather than "computers")
What makes a great title?
A great title needs to match, as closely as possible, the exact keyword phrase someone is likely to type into the Google search field when you want your site to appear in the top search results. For example, if your want your site to appear at the top of Google's SERPS (Search Engine Results Pages) when someone types "alienware gaming pcs", then your main page title needs to be "Alienware Gaming PCs". Another facet of a great title is something I like to call it's Tabloid factor. If you saw your title on the cover of a supermarket tabloid, would you be likely to pick up the tabloid to read it?
Next you need a great domain name
A great search engine friendly domain name will ideally contain the exact search term used when you want your site to appear in the SERPS for that phrase. In our example, your best domain name would be alienwaregamingpcs.com (it's usually best to get the .com, but .net and .org rank equally well all things being equal). If you don't believe the power of a good domain name lies in its keywords, then just do a search in Google for the term "Search". One would expect that Google itself would get top billing there, especially from its own search engine, right? Nope. Check it for yourself, the top listing (as of this writing) goes to search.yahoo.com. See the power of a keyword rich domain name now?

Tips on Making Sure Your Website Gets Listed on the Search Engines
Have you ever wondered why your website did not appear on the top list when searched using the search engine? Did you consider any website optimization techniques that can help you to bring it to the top list? Here is a short discussion on Google Search Engine Optimization that you can use in order to make your site searchable using popular search engines. These tips will guide you to better understand the basics of Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
In short, Google Search Engine Optimization is basically the process of reconstructing your site so that it has higher probability to be listed among the top list when searched through the search engines. This way, it is likely that your site will be found and it could bring in more traffic to your website.
The first step in optimizing your site for search engines is to carefully consider the keywords used in defining your site. These are key phrases that best describe your business, and include them in the text on the following pages. You can use one keyword per page. Enter your keywords in places so that it is also included in the text. You can include the keyword in the page title, followed by the content page.
Next, make your site and its content visible. This way, it helps the search engine to determine the relevance of keywords. A flash website which generally has more appealing looks compared to basic HTML pages is not visible to the search engines. Note also that text you use in naming your files, links as well as tags can affect your page ranking in search engines.
Including links to other website can also improve your ranking in the search engine. Carefully choose the right website to increase your ranking. You can consider other websites that highlight the same keywords that you use, or links from relevant categories in the industry.
You can hire someone to optimize your site, but you can do it yourself if you know the tricks.

How Search Engines and Link Building Work Together
In a world where competition is at its peak, where the Internet has made irreversible changes to the way business works, the only way to thrive is through link building and SEO services.
Why does my company/website need SEO?
It doesn't matter how great your content, or how beautiful your web design is, if you don't have enough traffic to your site, then it's useless. With 20 billion sites online today, there's a big chance that your site won't be discovered unless you hire SEO services which can help you get the word out about your products or service.
The majority of traffic to any website is driven by the search engines - Google, MSN (now Bing), Yahoo and Ask Jeeves. People go to these sites in order to search for the information that they need. If your website is not in the database of these search engines, then you are missing out a great opportunity.
Keep in mind, however, that the goal of SEO is not just to get your site indexed, but also, to get you on the top of the search engine results page (SERPs). According to many studies, when your site is listed in the top 10 of the SERPs, then its highly likely that people will visit your site. What does this mean for you? Well, it's pretty simple: the more people who visit your site, the greater your chances of making a sale. The more people who know about you, the greater your chances of creating a loyal customer base - repeat customers who will definitely refer you to their family and friends.
How do search engines work?
Perhaps you're asking yourself, "What does link building have to do with SEO?" Before we can answer that question, we will first need to understand how the search engines (SE) work. SEs are responsible for three operations:
Crawling the web using their spiders. These bots use the hyperlink structure of the web to crawl from one page to another.
Indexing of documents. Once a page has been crawled, the bots save these pages in a giant database of documents. They are sorted according to the keywords found in the pages.
Processing queries. When an Internet user goes to the SE and types in his/her keywords, it is the SE's task to retrieve the information that is related to the keywords used.
Ranking results. A list of websites will be returned to the Internet user. The list is arranged according to the order of importance, as ranked by the search engine.
From these 4 processes alone, we can already see how link building services is important. First, in order for your site to be crawled, you need to get more backlinks - those links from one website pointing to your site. According to estimates, only 8 - 10 billion out of the 20 billion WebPages today have been crawled and indexed. There are several sites that cannot be visited because there is no way for the search engines to discover them.
Second, website ranking in the SERPs is determined through a special algorithm known only to the search engines. While no one knows what are the exact factors that can get you placed high on the list, we know that search engines give importance to the relevance and popularity of a website. Popularity in this case refers to the number of backlinks to your site. The more backlinks you have, the more popular your site is. But millions of backlinks do not guarantee a front page listing in the SERPs. You also have to consider the relevance of your backlinks.
If your site is about computer tutorials, then you need to get backlink from sites which are related to your niche. For example, a link from a Photoshop tutorials site can help you gain greater authority but a backlink from a furniture dealer will not count.
If you have been working with a link building services for quite some time now and you haven't reached the first page of the SERPs, then you had better start evaluating the kind of links you are getting. Check for the relevance, as well as the quality of the links. High PR, .gov and .edu sites are considered as sites of high authority. If you are not getting backlinks from them, then you had better switch your SEO services today.
Why does my company/website need SEO?
It doesn't matter how great your content, or how beautiful your web design is, if you don't have enough traffic to your site, then it's useless. With 20 billion sites online today, there's a big chance that your site won't be discovered unless you hire SEO services which can help you get the word out about your products or service.
The majority of traffic to any website is driven by the search engines - Google, MSN (now Bing), Yahoo and Ask Jeeves. People go to these sites in order to search for the information that they need. If your website is not in the database of these search engines, then you are missing out a great opportunity.
