Brides of Spring will no doubt be flipping through magazines and/or scouring the net for some ideas on which hairstyle would suit them best for their wedding day. Let me throw some in for you, courtesy of Complete Wedding Hair & Beauty 2008 magazine.
Big Gothic
Big gothic hairstyles since the eighties emphasized height or largely styled hair that is both romantic and mysterious. Crimping or curling and backcombing are the major ways to achieve such big hair for certain gothic hairstyles.
Depending on the specific style, hairstyles in the big hair categories may require styling, cutting, or treatment techniques. Big gothic hair styles often requires backcombing or teasing and the liberal application of styling aids such as moulding mud, hair spray and hair gel, often in combination with the use of hair dryers. Crimping irons, curling irons, perms, hair rollers or other techniques may also be required for longer hair to help it stay big.
Fast Link Building Techniques
When you are working on a website's search engine optimization, link building probably is the most important task you need to do. Link building is a pretty general term used to describe anything you do to build links to a website. Even though link building is relatively easy process it requires dedication and consistent effort.
Your website positions in SEPRs heavily depend on a number of links pointing back to you site. This is why all webmasters and internet marketers spend most of their time on this crucial but often very time consuming task.
More experienced online marketers sometimes outsource link building to other webmasters or SEO companies. These companies can do most of the search engine optimization work for you, so you can spend you valuable time on other more important tasks.
The downside of outsourcing is that SEO companies charge for their service good fees and not all webmasters can afford it. Internet marketing beginners need to spend some extra time to find trusted websites where they can leave a link pointing back to their websites. So what is the fastest and easiest way to build backlinks? I am going to show you few methods you can use to obtain quality backlins without spending a lot of time on it.
Directory submission
There is a controversial discussion about how good links from directories are. There are trusted directories like DMOZ and Yahoo are getting a link from them is a great way to boost your link popularity. Also there thousands other directories and you can get links from and many of them are free of charge. I believe that all links count and if you can automate directory submission, then the effort well worth it.
Social Bookmarking Sites
Social bookmarking sites are another great way to increase your website ranking by building big number of backlinks pointing to your site. There are hundreds if not thousands of social bookmarking websites where you can create free accounts and post links to your domains.
Blog and Forum posting.
Blog and forum commenting is a very popular way to acquire backlinks very fast. You can find many blogs related to your website and post comments, leaving a link to your site. But make sure not to spam and leave useful comments that bring something of value to the blog.
Article submission
This is the best way to get many quality backlinks, improve your website rankings and increase traffic. The best part of article submission is that many websites and blogs are using content from articles. A single article written by you can appear on hundreds other websites which means hundreds of links for your site.
Using just these three methods you can build many backlinks to your website and improve your search engine positions. Try to get as many as possible links from trusted and established websites that have some authority in your niche. But don't try to get links ONLY from related websites. The more backlinks for your site, the better !

Thanks!
Every year I make cranberry bread for Thanksgiving, specifically "Grandma's famous cranberry bread" from the above treasured book of my youth Cranberry Thanksgiving by Wendy and harry Devlin.
This year, while gathering all the ingredients and mixing them up I paused to gather a few blessings to be tha thankful for:
1.) I am grateful for my health, complete use of limbs and mind! Sadly, so many people in this world don't have even that.
2.) I am grateful for all the people in my life who see me through, friends, family, online readers/posters, any kind soul who stopped to drop a kind word, every little bit has helped!
3.) I am grateful that I've been able to keep my head above water(thus far!) in this economy, although check on this one next year to see if it's still holding!
4.) I'm grateful I live in a country that has such a high comfortable standard of living. let's not forget even the poorest of the poor here in the US have it better than a great deal fo the population elsewhere on the planet. I bitch and moan when my water isn't hot enough!!! How many human beings on this planet have no home, let alone running water and/or a toilet!
And I'm grateful for continuity and tradition in my life. For those of you that would like to try a little cranberry bread, I am glad to share the recipe:
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour

- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
