Weaknesses of the Articles of the Confederation and the reasons why the founding fathers created a weak national government
After the American Revolution it was up to congress to establish an organized government so that the United States would not fail. In a quick attempt to do this congress approved the first nation contistution- the Articles of Confederation. The Articles of Confederation, however, was anything but perfect. This "constitution" did not give the national government the power to tax its citizens and regulate trade in order to reduce the national debt. It also got rid of a strong executive branch and gave little power to congress and more power to the states. All of these factors played a role in the weakness and failure of the Articles of Confederation.
The Articles of Confederation never gave congress the right to tax U.S. citizens or regulate trade nationally or internationally. With no power to tax U.S. citizens, congress could not reduce the national debt, and with no pwer to regulate trade it could not have hault imported goods or the flow of gold and silver to Europe. In a desprate attempt to help this situation congress and the states printed paper money during the war. The government promised to redeem the bills with money from future taxes. However, since congress did not have the authority to tax, the value of the dollar plunged. This caused inflation, one of the reasons Shays' Rebellion occured. Since farm wages and prices had falled sharply the farmers were selling little produce but they still had to pay morgages on their farms and other debts. When Shays' Rebellion took place it sent a message to congress showing them how horrible the debt really was huring the American citizens and the country as a whole. This showed how the national government needed to take charge and be granted more power in order to take better care of their people.
Americans feared the threat of monarchy. As a result of this the Articles of Confederation did not grant the executive branch much pwoer over the states. This made it difficult to carry out foreign policy. In effect states took this issue into their own hands. When John Jay and Don Diegode Gardoqui agreed on the Jay-Gardoqui Treaty this was an example of that very problem. Being that congress hand no authority over foreign policy because it lacked executive power, Jay decided to take action. Jay was supposed to draw up a negotiation with Spain to preserve American rights to navigate the Mississippi. However, Gardoqui persuaded Jay to give up all American rights to the Mississippi in exchange for trading privledges to American merchants. The public became hostile and felt betrayed by the Treaty. There was no assembly to make the decision, just one person. This would have been a good time for executive power to step in.
Lastly, the Articles of Confederation gave congress very little power overall. This left voters within a state to do whatever they wanted. Shays' Rebellion, lead by Captain Daniel Shays', revolted against the Massachusetts government. This sent a message to the national government to take care of their people and regulate their actions. With little power congress could do little about their nations' behavior, but with power they could control it. In a sense, this was the "straw that broke the camels' back" because shortly after the new constitution was drawn up.
The Articles of Confederation did not let the national government regulate trade or levy taxes, it got rid of a strong executive power and it gave congress minimal power over citizens. All of these things contributed to its weakness as well as its failure. This benefited the contry in the long run, however, because it showed congress what was wrong which helped create a final constitution.

Dog Worms: Understand Dog Worms Symptoms and Infestation
Until a very recent period, dog worms were thought to be of a spontaneous origin, brought about by the influence of heat upon decaying vegetable matter, and it was and still is freely asserted that puppies are born with dog worms inherited from the mother in some mysterious manner while still in uterus. This has been conclusively proven an error and in the minds of all scientists there is no question about dog worms springing from individual eggs and having a complete life history of their own.
The principal worm species with which dog owners have to contend are round worms and tape worms. The first named commonly infest puppies and consequently are most dreaded by breeders. In shape and size these worms resemble common angle worms, but in color are lighter, being almost white or only a pale pink.
In adult dogs these worms, when full grown, are from three to seven inches long. In puppies they are about half that length, and as thick as common white string. Round worms live in the small intestines, sometimes coiled in such masses as to obstruct the passage, and occasionally they wander into the stomach or are passed by the bowels.
It is easy to understand that when one dog in a kennel is infected with worms, millions of eggs will be passed with the feces. These are scattered all over the floors, bedding, feeding and drinking pans. They get on the dog’s coat, are licked off and swallowed and in numbers of ways gain entrance to the digestive tracts of other dogs, where they soon hatch out and in ten days are fully developed.
This rapid development account for the popular belief that puppies are born with worms, for breeders who have held post-mortems on puppies scarcely ten days old and have found in their stomachs fully developed round worms could account for their presence in no other way. They overlooked the fact that the prospective mother, confined in a kennel infested with worms, would get these eggs attached to her coat, belly and breasts, and the young, as soon as born, would take these eggs into their stomachs with the first mouthfuls of milk.
Symptoms Of Dog Worms Attack
Dog worms are responsible for so much sickness and so many symptoms that it is practically impossible to mention all of them, but their presence can safely be suspected in all dogs which have not been recently treated for them, as well as in cases where the patient is run down, unthrifty and out of sorts.
Other symptoms are a hot, dry nose, weak, watery eyes, pale lips and gums, foul breath, mean hacking cough and a red, scurfy, pimply or irritated condition of the skin and harsh, dry, staring coat that is constantly being shed.
Wormy dogs sometimes have a depraved appetite and will eat dirt and rubbish. Some days they are ravenously hungry, the next day they will not eat at all; their sleep is disturbed by dreams and intestinal rumbling, the urine is high colored and frequently passed, bowels irregular, stomach easily unsettled, watery mucus is frequently vomited and the mouth is hot, sticky and full of ropy saliva.
Puppies which are full of worms bloat easily and are pot-bellied. After feeding their stomachs distend disproportionately to the amount of food consumed. Their bodies are also subject to scaly eruptions and their bowels to colicky pains; they do not grow as rapidly as healthy puppies should and instead of playing with each other they curl up and sleep hour after hour; they get thinner, weaker and more lifeless from day to day and if they do not waste away or die in fits and convulsions with frothing at the mouth and champing of the jaws, grow up coarse-jointed, rickety and misshapen. Puppies with worms are also liable to paralysis of their rear limbs and on removal of the worms the puppies regain control of the affected parts.
A wormy dog is usually an unhealthy and unhappy dog who leads a miserable life. It could even be deadly, especially so for young puppies. Bring your dog to a veterinarian if you are unsure. Your dog will certainly thank you for that.

Increase Your SE Ranking By Promoting Inner Blog Pages
Link popularity is a big factor in search engine rankings. The tendency of blog authors is to promote only the main url of their blog unaware that a large amount of traffic also comes from inner pages or deep links as it is popularly called. How to determine which pages needs to be promoted so that you will increase your blog or website traffic will be discussed later but first we’ll touch on the topic about what keywords are searched in the main url of your blog.
Keywords in the home page
Your home page is limited only to a few blog posts. Blogger defaults to 7 pages but you can assign any number from 1 to 99. Individual pages are created for each blog posts if you selected yes to ‘enabled post pages’ in the settings/archiving page of your dashboard. Therefore the keyword relevance in your home page may vary but not on your individual pages or deep link. Blogger assigns a unique url for individual pages.
For example if your home page contains 7 posts, then the 7th post will no longer be in your home page if you create another post. Keyword density which is a factor in search engine rankings will not be the same as the one before you created a new post.
Promoting your deep links is a good option to increase your overall page rank. Page rank for your deep links can be passed to your home page. Among the many deep links which you can see from your archive, which of them should take priority in promoting?
How to determine which pages to promote first
We’ll use Google as the search engine and you’ll need either a Google Websmasters tool to do this or a statistical counter like StatCounter. If you don’t have a Google Webmasters tool account, open one now.
Using Google Webmasters Tools
In your dashboard click on the name of your blog. A page will open that will have several menu items on the left. Click on ‘Statistics’ then on the ‘Top search queries’ on the submenu. You will be presented with two data groups: Top search queries and Top clicked queries. Both have the same column headings.
The ‘%’ column is the percentage of a search term from the total number of search terms that your website or blog received for a specified time period, that’s 1 week.
The ‘Query’ column is the keyword that searchers typed on the search box.
The ‘Position’ column is where your page is located in the search result. Google displays 10 results for each page. If your position of your page is 11, then that page is the first item of the second page of the search result.
If your page is listed in the first 10 results, then it must be having good traffic. If the position is more than 10, then its a candidate for further promotion so that it will go to the top 10.
To know what the url of the page the search query is pointing to, right click on the search query and select ‘open in new tab’ if you are using Firefox. The Google search results page will open, find your page basing on the ‘Position’ column. Once you find it, get it’s link location by right clicking and selecting ‘copy link location’ then paste it in notepad. The further your page from the top 10, the more promotion it needs to reach the top 10.
That’s it, you now know what deep link pages that needs promoting. Promote it using the searched term as the anchor text. Write articles, post blog comments, participate in forums using that url. Push it forward and you’ll increase your website or blog traffic.

Benefits Of Article Marketing - #9 Traffic From Your Blog
We have to discuss blogging when we talk about the benefits of article marketing. Blogging is an excellent way to build your business writing articles.
Certainly, if you have a blog of your own you should be posting articles in those. I personally think you should vary the content a little so that you are not posting the exact same article in your blog that you are also submitting to various article directories.
You do not have to rewrite the whole article, but you do want to make it a little bit unique. This gives you an opportunity to attract new readers when you social bookmark your blog post.
You should do this without changing the meaning of the article. You will find it will become second nature to you and is not hard to do at all, as you work at doing rewriting to make each article unique.
Another idea that people do not often think of is to become a guest blogger and write for other blogs. One problem that all bloggers face is how do they keep their blogs current and fresh content coming into it on a consistent basis.
This is especially true during the vacation season when people want to take some time off and they don’t want to have to stop what they are doing and post in their blog. This gives you an opportunity to use your article writing talents and blog for them.
You could offer to do it for free in exchange for allowing you post back links in the articles to your website or blog of your own.
Another thing you could do is trade blog articles with bloggers and give each of you additional exposure. This is a form of a link trade from the old reciprocal linking days.
You write a blog article for them and link back to your blog and they write a blog article for you and link back to yours.
One final point to keep in mind is many article directories want articles of 400 words or more. When you blog you are not under any word count minimum. As a matter of fact if you can often get your point across in 250 word blog articles!
Article marketing definitely has many benefits as we have seen. Becoming a blogger is another one of them and a great way to add content to any site.

You should do this without changing the meaning of the article. You will find it will become second nature to you and is not hard to do at all, as you work at doing rewriting to make each article unique.
Another idea that people do not often think of is to become a guest blogger and write for other blogs. One problem that all bloggers face is how do they keep their blogs current and fresh content coming into it on a consistent basis.
This is especially true during the vacation season when people want to take some time off and they don’t want to have to stop what they are doing and post in their blog. This gives you an opportunity to use your article writing talents and blog for them.
You could offer to do it for free in exchange for allowing you post back links in the articles to your website or blog of your own.
Another thing you could do is trade blog articles with bloggers and give each of you additional exposure. This is a form of a link trade from the old reciprocal linking days.
You write a blog article for them and link back to your blog and they write a blog article for you and link back to yours.
One final point to keep in mind is many article directories want articles of 400 words or more. When you blog you are not under any word count minimum. As a matter of fact if you can often get your point across in 250 word blog articles!
Article marketing definitely has many benefits as we have seen. Becoming a blogger is another one of them and a great way to add content to any site.
We have to discuss blogging when we talk about the benefits of article marketing. Blogging is an excellent way to build your business writing articles.

Traits of a Successful Blogger
Blogging is definitely a very powerful way of building your business online, but you need to have some important traits if you want to really milk this cow. The following are some of the important traits that you need to have to make your blogging a significant driving force in your business promotion.
Give time to your blogging campaign
Most people flounder in their blogging campaigns because they do not set an adequate amount of time for blogging. You must spend at least two days blogging for your business and you must do it yourself, without delegating it to anyone else. Why will you need two hours? One hour you can keep aside for finding new blogs to make posts on each day (trust me, I have lived through this and I know for a fact that it is not easy to find new blogs each day) and the other hour you should keep aside for actually making the posts. Since blogging is actually a fun activity (at least I think so), you can keep it for the times in your day when you feel like you want a diversion from your other brain-deadening work.
Mingle with the crowd
It is very important when you are blogging to go with the drift. Read the previous posts to understand what people are talking about, and when you make a post yourself, you must take care to continue with the conversation and not put a break in it. In every post, make sure that you put your perspective across. This is what people really want to read.
Have your own blog too
This is quite obvious, but you will be amazed at the number of people who simply scavenge on other blogs with their business website link but do not maintain blogs of their own. This is a very serious fallacy. First make a blog of your own and then start blogging on other blogs. This way, you will be able to promote your blog, and through that your website in your posts. You can realize how much better that will be for bringing in targeted traffic to your website, can’t you?
Be well informed
When making your posts, do not come across like a nerd. First, research on what you are going to write about and make sure of the facts. Then, and only then, make your post. If you write something that’s an obvious mistake, it will definitely create a bad impression on the reader and will do more harm than good.
Write in an appealing manner
You do not have to be a literary genius to make a blog post, but you sure must have the writing skills to get your point across. Write in a friendly tone because blog-savvy people like to read such language.
Educate yourself on blog marketing methods
You will need to learn what link sharing is. This is the process of writing on other people’s blogs so that they write on yours and you can promote each other’s links. That way you are both mutually benefiting because the traffic is increasing. You have to do this kind of link sharing quite frequently with different blogs so that you increase your chances of getting visitors.
These were some of the most essential points you need to remember when you are promoting your website through blogging. However, these are by no means exhaustive. As you blog more and more you will learn many more strategies that put your blogging strategy at the top spot of your web marketing campaign.

The Best Means For Internet Marketing Is Blogging
Post to your blog at least three times a week to keep human visitors and search engine spiders coming back. Posts have images and even a complimentary podcast. This blog strategy reminds me of what Lee Iococca did for Chrysler in the 80’s where the man behind the brand put himself in front of it.
Search engines cannot read image files. While there is a filename associated with every image on the internet, chances are, these filenames do not contain a sensible title or description of the image. Search engine marketing is one of the best marketing methods to enhance your web presence and your business opportunities thereby. Internet marketing strategies comprise of various services like website optimization, keyword analysis, SEO content writing, link building, ppc and lot more. Search is driven by the feedback loop of data. About half of users are doing long research sessions of 30 minutes or more.
Search engines look for sites that are adding value to the community. If you are presenting information that has been presented 100 times by others, it is going to be tough for you to get ranked. Search engine optimization is an integral part of Internet marketing way of life. And a typical part of this SEO strategy is link exchange - you can put links to your primary resource to increase ranking in search engine to do a better Internet marketing.
Article marketing helps you establish your authority by showing potential customers that you know what you are talking about. People want to do business with a recognized authority. Article writing, blog production and content creation for e-portals and podcasts are just some of the examples whereby all you need is a creative mind and a deft hand that can write? Affiliate marketers pay top dollar for good content ?
Researching Internet marketing online is one method which can be used for learning more about this topic. This type of research can be very informative and can provide the business owner with a great deal of advice and other information. Research has proven that the most effective affiliate links are text links. They far exceed banners and flash animations when it comes to click through rates. Research has shown that the longer you keep people in shopping malls, the more likely they are to buy something. Shopping mall designers know things like you will almost always turn right when you enter a mall.
Links bring top rankings and traffic! You need fresh links! Link exchange - Getting links from other known sites would give the best traffic that you will ever need. But can you sacrifice your time in looking for webmasters who can accept your site? Link building services and website promotion are essential to grow your business on the web. Blog Marketing and Promotion have proven to be a highly successful method of driving targeted traffic and relevant search engine indexed text links straight to your web site!
Creating a blog, maintaining it or posting an article to a prevailing blog is known as blogging. Individual articles on a blog are known as blog posts, posts or entries. Creating PDF’s is a lot more straightforward than it used to be. I prefer to use eWriterPro because you can write and edit the book, insert all your hyperlinks and convert the finished product to PDF all with one program. Create an image that appeals to your target market and promotes credibility for your business. Choose fonts and colors for your website that are clean and friendly to the viewer.
Web analytical tools are a must to improve conversion rates for your website. Website visitors are potentially the life blood of your internet based business.
