    SOLAR HEATED HOUSE
    January 15, 1955 - Tucson, Arizona, U.S.A.

    The first U.S. house to be both solar-heated and radiation-cooled started its system. It was built in Tucson, Arizona by solar physicist Raymond W. Bliss, Jr. (6 Oct 1915 - 7 Nov 2004). The system was built at a cost of nearly $4,000 for labor and materials. It was made using a large slanted slab of steel and glass that converted sunlight into heat, which was directed into the house. Summer cooling used the same ducts and associated fans and controls. The first U.S. house to be completely solar heated was occupied in Dover, Mass. On 24 Dec 1948. That heating system was designed by Dr. Maria Telkes from the MIT Solar Laboratory, used black sheet metal collectors to capture solar energy, stored by the phase-change of sodium sulfate decahydrate in “heat bins.”

    RAZING OF JERUSALEM
    January 15, 1970 - Israel

    The first evidence was uncovered of the razing by fire, of Jerusalem by Roman troops led by General Titus in 70 A.D. upon orders from Caesar. Israeli archaeologist Prof. Nahumn Avigad excavated ruins in the Jewish Quarter of Old Jerusalem, a few hundred yards from the Wailing Wall. Three meters (10 feet) under the earth, he found two rooms with evidence of intense heat and ashes. One was apparently a pharmacy, with beautifully carved stone jars, stone weights, and measuring cups. The second was perhaps a woodworking shop. The coins were found which helped precisely date the event. Despite the destruction, the site was valuable because the objects were found buried there as they had been used.

  • A Change is Gonna Come
    by Meredith Grey

    "...Change; we don't like it, we fear it, but we can't stop it from coming. We either adapt to change, or we get left behind. It hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn't is lying. But here's the truth: Sometimes the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Sometimes change is everything...."

Getting the desired traffic is very important when putting up a site online. After all, it would be worthless to put up a site with all sorts of attractions, if no one will even visit for a peek. Thus, many online sites have invested greatly on ways to get traffic flowing.

One of methods that is often employed in traffic generation is link building. To the layman, link building is basically the creation of links in various websites that would then lead back to your sites. This means that you will be able to get traffic coming to you even if users don't directly go to your site. As in any other SEO techniques, link building is not a simple task.

In fact it can rather pretty complex. However, there are some useful strategies that you can do to make link building not only easier, but also more effective.First up you need to know your target market. Be familiar with their interests and also know where they are most commonly found online. This will help you in determining how you will put up branch your links to reach your target. In order to get more information about the target for link building purposes, you need to interact with them by engaging in online conversation.

This will augment what you have gathered from outside sources.Once you have all your information, then it's time to put up your links. Your goal here is to reach a wide share of your target, while at the same time, be able to snag at least a bit of those from the outside. Social networking sites are indispensable when it comes to link building. Here you can put up an article, place comments or simply do anything that will get your links noticed.

However, you need to be sure that your contents actually do have something to say and not just contain gibberish for the sake of linking. This way, you will genuinely get the attention of your audience enough that they actually click on your links, and thus, generate the traffic you want.A good strategy to use when link building is to let other people distribute your links for you. This will even work better if you pair it with good content as people will automatically put up your links on their own pages if they like it, even without you asking them.

Thus be sure to provide your viewers with the exact information, such as your site's complete address, so that they can post it up. Better yet, you can also give them the code for the link so that they can just past it to their HTML code and it will automatically show up on their pages.However, while you are out posting links, you will also receive requests from others to put up links of their own on your site. The best thing here is to allow as many as you can. It is not only a sign of goodwill, but linking out is also a good way to get traffic. People going on to the other sites will more likely to come across you more when you serve as a route to get there.
