Worse yet, there are many mistakes that are both devastating and common, and which you may well be doing yourself. Heres a list of five of the most common ways that bloggers ruin their own success.#1 Picking the Wrong ThemeThere are some themes that have truly obvious issues, there are more nefarious blog issues that you need to avoid. The default theme for WordPress, is problematic because its in such common use and is â" lets face it â" boring. Other tricky to spot issues include having white text on a dark background, which is both harder to read and a pain to print; ha ving a cluttered design; and having large design elements that take up far too much of the space above the fold on your website.Related Useful Posts : Why Use A WordPress Theme Framework For Your Blog?Choosing A Top Grade Theme For Your Blog 25+ Free Awesome Thesis Skins That Dont Suck5 Simple Steps To An Original Blog Design#2 Using Distracting ElementsStart your entire blog layout and design with the question What do I want people to focus on? Then make sure that your target content is the most visually appealing, dynamically presented, and clearly laid-out.Far too often, beautiful but irrelevant design elements or flashy add-ons (the worst of them actually using flash) take up your users attention and distract from your actual blog.#3 Making Sharing ComplicatedIf youve visited successful blogs, youve almost certainly seen the small widget next to each post that lets you share the post with a single click. (For those who need further examples, were referring to widgets like AddThis and ShareThis.) Honestly, these widgets are so essential to blogging success that its surprising this feature hasnt been integrated into the defaults. Be sure you have your sharing widget installed and plainly visible.READThe Shift To Interactive Advertising And Apps#4 Slowing Your Blog DownYour blogs loading time impact both your visitor experience and your search engine ranking. Dont add unnecessary plugins and widgets to your posts, dont integrate pictures without optimizing them for load speeds first, and make sure that you have hosting that takes care of your audiences bandwidth demands.For those who want to go the extra mile, several plugins can be found which effectively speed up your blogs load times.Related Useful Posts : 5 Easy Steps To Speed Up Your Website20+ Tips To Improve And Increase Your Blogâs Loading Speed7 Free Best Tools To Check Website Loading Speed#5 Making Communication DifficultIf you want to build a sense of community and a relati onship with your visitors, you need to make communication â" whether through blog comments or direct messages â" as easy as possible. Simple plugins like WordPress-to-Lead or Contact Form 7 can add a simple and intuitive form for messages, and comment plugins like OpenID are a must for reducing the hurdles between a visitor and their comment.While there are plenty of other mistakes you can make with your blog, these five can be found both in the list of the most frequent and most disastrous choices. By evading these problems, you will decrease your chances of self-sabotage immensely.This article is written by Lorna Li. She is the Founder and Editor in Chief of Green Marketing TV.

Cooking up an entrepreneurial storm Hult Blog
We caught up with some key members of our Hult Alumni Association to explore how they started their own ventures in the Food and Beverage industry and how they managed to maintain their run of success in this famously fast-moving industry. Discover Cynthia Kaplanââ¬â¢s (MBA Class of 1992) natural dog food company, Lucky Dog; Bryan Delaneyââ¬â¢s (MBA Class of 1993) New York beer bars; and Roz Edisonââ¬â¢s (MBA Class of 1998) Marination food trucks and stations. Itââ¬â¢s enough to make your mouth water with entrepreneurial appetite! Cynthia Kaplan, MBA Class of 1992, Founder of Lucky Dog, and Hult Alumnus of the Year Lucky Dog was set up through a series of fortunate circumstances. I truly believe in networking ââ¬â not just for the sake of getting something out of it for yourself. Itââ¬â¢s also about offering something to somebody, meeting people, and making connections. You never know where these connections may take you. I met both my current business partner and chef through networking and would not be where I am today without having networked. Weââ¬â¢re living in an age where everything is interlinked. I would say alums should really pursue their dreams and take advantage of their alumni network. My time at Hult exposed me to different global perspectives.à It was the whole multicultural experience that I really enjoyed and benefited from and still do. My advice to alums after their time at Hult would be to follow your dreams and your passion. Work in an industry where you know youââ¬â¢re going to gain experience. If you want to become an entrepreneur, save more money than you think you will need because itââ¬â¢s always going to be more expensive than you anticipated. Bryan Delaney, MBA Class of 1993, Owner of some of New Yorkââ¬â¢s exciting beer bars: Blind Tiger, The Gate, Birdsall House, and Gleasons Peekskill One of the real positives of the bar and restaurant business is that it gives you a chance to bring joy and a sense of community to your customers. However, a common mistake often made about this industry is that it is all fun. We feel that our love of cooking tuna casserole should easily translate into a successful restaurant that will run as smoothly as our comfy home kitchen. This is one of the reasons the failure rate in the industry is so high. Itââ¬â¢s a lot of work just like any other business, and requires skills, expertise, and passion. The secret to my success has been to create a local connection that attracts repeat customer and has staying power ââ¬â becoming a ââ¬Ëfixtureââ¬â¢ in the neighborhood that is above trends and fads. Most important, however, is the attention given to the hiring and training of excellent staff. They can make or break your place despite how good your food is or how nice your place looks. I continually train staff and build loyalty. Hult provided me with skills that enabled me to turn a vision into a real career that I am still enjoying today. Roz Edison, MBA Class of 1998, Owner of Marination food trucks and stations Marination Station and Marination Ma Kai were the result of extraordinary luck. Once the truck operation was up and running we knew that it would be desirable to have a place with a few seats, that would operate longer than three hours per day, and that might even out some of the seasonability of the truck business. We heard about a retail space in a neighborhood we wanted to be in, via a friend. We would not have stood a chance with the building owner if we hadnââ¬â¢t been lucky enough to have a colleague in common. The highs and lows of my entrepreneurial journey have come from customers. The highs are all the customers who write us nice notes, send us pictures of their kids eating tacos, and tell us how they miss us when they move or travel. All of those interactions have been so fun and flattering. The lows come when customers remind us that we have not delivered the perfect product or service that we want to. We deal with the lows with humility, internal reviews of our processes/ products, and usually a couple of gift cards. Hult taught me business fundamentals and more importantly exposed me to the myriad of business considerations involved. It has taught me to ask questions and use the answers to ask more questions or make a decision. For the full story on how they are cooking up an entrepreneurial storm and to find out more about what lessons can be learned, read the latest edition of our alumni magazine here.

Adolf Hitler and the Holocaust Essay - 1914 Words
The Holocaust is a tragic event that happened not so long ago, but many people have already forgotten about this horrible event. Today, there are only few survivors left to tell their own personal stories of the Holocaust and what they had to go through. But what will happen when theres no survivor left to tell his/her story or speak of the truth that the Holocaust really did happen? Who will speak out for them and millions of Jews who had died in the Holocaust? Who will help defend them? Like many historian events, the Holocaust will become history and will be forgotten.

The Role of Bells Theorem in Quantum Physics
Bells Theorem was devised by Irish physicist John Stewart Bell (1928-1990) as a means of testing whether or not particles connected through quantum entanglement communicate information faster than the speed of light. Specifically, the theorem says that no theory of local hidden variables can account for all of the predictions of quantum mechanics. Bell proves this theorem through the creation of Bell inequalities, which are shown by experiment to be violated in quantum physics systems, thus proving that some idea at the heart of local hidden variables theories has to be false. The property which usually takes the fall is locality - the idea that no physical effects move faster than the ââ¬â¹speed of light. Quantum Entanglement In a situation where you have two particles, A and B, which are connected through quantum entanglement, then the properties of A and B are correlated. For example, the spin of A may be 1/2 and the spin of B may be -1/2, or vice versa. Quantum physics tells us that until a measurement is made, these particles are in a superposition of possible states. The spin of A is both 1/2 and -1/2. (See our article on the Schroedingers Cat thought experiment for more on this idea. This particular example with particles A and B is a variant of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox, often called the EPR Paradox.) However, once you measure the spin of A, you know for sure the value of Bs spin without ever having to measure it directly. (If A has spin 1/2, then Bs spin has to be -1/2. If A has spin -1/2, then Bs spin has to be 1/2. There are no other alternatives.) The riddle at the heart of Bells Theorem is how that information gets communicated from particle A to particle B. Bells Theorem at Work John Stewart Bell originally proposed the idea for Bells Theorem in his 1964 paper On the Einstein Podolsky Rosen paradox. In his analysis, he derived formulas called the Bell inequalities, which are probabilistic statements about how often the spin of particle A and particle B should correlate with each other if normal probability (as opposed to quantum entanglement) were working. These Bell inequalities are violated by quantum physics experiments, which means that one of his basic assumptions had to be false, and there were only two assumptions that fit the bill - either physical reality or locality was failing. To understand what this means, go back to the experiment described above. You measure particle As spin. There are two situations that could be the result - either particle B immediately has the opposite spin, or particle B is still in a superposition of states. If particle B is affected immediately by the measurement of particle A, then this means that the assumption of locality is violated. In other words, somehow a message got from particle A to particle B instantaneously, even though they can be separated by a great distance. This would mean that quantum mechanics displays the property of non-locality. If this instantaneous message (i.e., non-locality) doesnt take place, then the only other option is that particle B is still in a superposition of states. The measurement of particle Bs spin should, therefore, be completely independent of the measurement of particle A, and the Bell inequalities represent the percent of the time when the spins of A and B should be correlated in this situation. Experiments have overwhelmingly shown that the Bell inequalities are violated. The most common interpretation of this result is that the message between A and B is instantaneous. (The alternative would be to invalidate the physical reality of Bs spin.) Therefore, quantum mechanics seems to display non-locality. Note: This non-locality in quantum mechanics only relates to the specific information that is entangled between the two particles - the spin in the above example. The measurement of A cannot be used to instantly transmit any sort of other information to B at great distances, and no one observing B will be able to tell independently whether or not A was measured. Under the vast majority of interpretations by respected physicists, this does not allow communication faster than the speed of light.

Fran Smith chimes in that ââ¬Å"arts learning can also improve motivation, concentration, confidence, and teamworkâ⬠(2). Being able to open up and verbalize feelings through the art of drama will give students a different perspective on the outlook of life. The world is always telling students what to be, how to look, what to wear, what is cool and what is not; however, being able to express oneself through the Fine Arts can let the youth shine their own light. ââ¬Å"We have music rooms where instead of there being kids and instruments, we have instruments locked in closets with dust all over them. It really is shameful whatââ¬â¢s going on with [the] arts education these days,â⬠sadly observes Maiers (1). Music is really taken for granted and needs to be more appreciated. Duncan Asiedu believes: Itââ¬â¢s a shame though, that music programs are been[sic] scrapped considering the proven benefits, education and otherwise, that has been associated with music and its potential to help alleviate some of the education deficiencies that have plagued inner city students for decades (2).

Religion in Latin America; the Age of Discovery and...
Religion played a big role in shaping the values, attitudes, and conduct of the Spanish during the Age of Discovery and Conquest (1492-1579). The colonial church provided control and a standard of conduct and living for the new world. In fact, the colonial church had even more power in Spanish America then it did in Spain. Why this is important though, is because it limited the possibility of rebellion and opposition. As long as the church was in place, there was Spanish order, and as long as there was Spanish order, the colonization process could continue to run smoothly and prosper. Nurtured by the crown, the colonial church thrived. Its main priorities were to convert the Indians, and to theoretically justify the Iberian presence inâ⬠¦show more contentâ⬠¦The conversion process did not go on without a hitch though, throughout the new world missionaries had many obstacles to overcome. The first problem they ran into was the vast number of native languages they encountered. A nother is the scattered geographical locations of many tribes, because there wasnââ¬â¢t an easy pattern to follow, Christianity and conversion could not spread as rapidly as they wouldââ¬â¢ve liked it to. A third way in which the conversion was more difficult than intended, was when they came across native religions that shared some of the same beliefs, although it helped that some basic ideologies were already in place, it was much harder for Christianity to be seen as new and unique. Unlike the original settlers, evangelicals who traveled to convert did not show the same respect for the indigenous g-ds; the Christian g-d was to stand alone. The native religions were destructed very systematically; natives who practiced their religions instead of converting were also prosecuted, and many times by the priests themselves. In these areas of evangelical settlers who would conquest throughout Latin America, laws were even put in place to ensure the practicing of Christianity. As d eclared by Prudence, the law dictated that ââ¬Å"Natives, whatever their private beliefs, publicly comply with their conquerorââ¬â¢s religionâ⬠(Burkholder Johnson 109). So much for separation of church and state- in the Age of Discovery and Conquest,
Why Was The Atomic Bomb First - 2808 Words
Why was the US able to develop the atomic bomb first? The United States of America was able to develop 67,000 types of atomic bombs since 1951. They have achieved the greatest production of nuclear weaponry. The United States was not just successful in being a nation to construct an atomic bomb but more importantly was the first nation because of formidable events. The development of the atomic bomb was important during the onset of World War 2 (WW2) as it instilled confidence in the home country and nobody had attained a weapon like this. This gave whoever had possession of the atomic bomb ultimate power. Nowadays, it is important to realize that had the US not developed the atomic bomb first, Germany could have. Our world would be muchâ⬠¦show more contentâ⬠¦The fear of other nations developing a weapon powerful enough to decimate the US led to the authorization of research to develop an Atomic bomb in 1939. Before WWII people were fearful of the involvement of nuclear science in war because of itsââ¬â¢ unfamiliarity. Physicists knew that if Hitler developed the technology that could potentially begot the development of an Atomic bomb, mass destruction would occur. Upon realizing the necessity of nuclear involvement in war, Albert Einstein signed a letter to the U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt (FDR) addressing his concerns that Germany was developing a nuclear bomb. Einstein urged FDR to fund a research program, Roosevelt agreed and the U.S. set out in October 1939 to study the recent advances in nuclear fission. One key factor that cannot be ignored was that from 1941 th e US was involved in war with Japan and because of the attacks on pearl harbour it seemed necessary to develop a weapon of this caliber. Advantages of possessing an Atomic bomb One would think that going to war and (hopefully winning) would bring happiness and peace to a country, but after winning the losses are overwhelming. It is evident from the military history of the USA the involvement in war can pose many problems for a countryââ¬â¢s stability. An economically stable country can be launched into depression over a few short years. However, with the possession of a weapon that
