			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that there is convincing evidence that &#8220;low to moderate alcohol intake&#8221; results in a decreased risk of coronary heart disease. However, the WHO cautions that &#8220;other cardiovascular and health risks associated with alcohol do not favour a general recommendation for its use.&#8221;</p>
<p>Moderate alcohol consumption has been found to be associated with a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia, angina pectoris, bone fractures and osteoporosis, diabetes, duodenal ulcer, gallstones, hepatitis A, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, intermittent claudicating (IC), kidney stones, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, metabolic syndrome, pancreatic cancer, Parkinson&#8217;s Disease, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), rheumatoid arthritis, and type B gastritis.  Also it has been suggested that moderate consumption can reduce dementia risk, facilitate memory and learning, and even improve IQ scores.</p>
<p>However, a study of red wine published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, found that alcohol-free red wine had the same health benefits as the alcoholic wine, and that the alcohol may actually shorten the benefits.Flavonoids believed to be protective against coronary heart disease and some types of cancer, are present in wine due to its fermentation from grapes. These left the blood more quickly when alcohol was consumed.</p>
<p>Moderate drinkers tend to have better health and live longer than those who abstain from alcohol or are heavy drinkers[citation needed], but this average difference may possibly be explained in part by the fact that a fraction of abstainers from alcohol are ex-alcoholics or those who have health problems or take drugs that preclude the use of alcohol.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For newbies in monetized-blogging, learning Adsense tricks is very essential. The best tip and trick is  to  simply stick with the basics. Like what i kept on stressing out, one should know what the site or blog would be all about.  The content of the blog would decide the fate of your blog monetization since they would be the basis of all the ads that would appear on the blog/site and of course the biggest traffic-magnet-factor.</p>
<p>If the site is ready, and you have an approved adsense ID it&#8217;s time to apply it! The first thing to do when incorporating Adsense into your blog is to get high hit keywords which brings more revenue to your blog. For there are some keywords don&#8217;t really earn anything and just blocks traffic, takes up the spaces where a better revenue generating ad should be. Sometimes those keyword even shows irrelevant ads which is too far off from your main topic thus  making the readers annoyed. Those excess baggage keywords must be removed from the blog to give way to more important ones.</p>
<p>Another trick is you can try to create more than one site/blog. But that would mean you have to give more time and maintain each site. Most especially if each site/blog has a different theme/topic. This technique works for a lot of bloggers. It personally is working for me. But there is also a huge advantage in sticking toone site/blog with a single topic since your attention wont be divided and you can maximize every possible resource from it. Its simply the same as having a child. Some prefer to have a lot, and some prefer to have just one or two.</p>
<p>Having more than one site can actually let you reach out to more readers.Although it would require a lot of effort since you have to satisfy each type with the content that you provide them in order for them to keep coming back for more. If you think you can handle that, go for it! Have more kids&#8230;&#8230;.for more offsprings in the future.<br />But If you&#8217;re just starting out, I suggest that you focus on one first and give it your best shot!</p>
<p>Another Adsense technique would be proper ad placement + ad sizes.<br />As per Google,  ads should be on the spots where they could be easily seen.<br />You have to put them on the sidebar next to an element that attracts readers.<br />And the color of the ads should perfectly blend with that of the blog theme itself.</p>
<p>there are a lot of ad formats to choose from depending on the format of your blog.<br />But large rectangle 336×280, inline rectangle 300×250, or wide skyscraper 160×600, would be the most advisable ad format to use. Site viewers would notice them almost immediately.</p>
<p>Plus to make this trick work, try placing images on top of the ads on the sidebar. Pictures attracts the eye more than ordinary texts does. You may also use those picture-ads that would link to your referrals or affiliates for additional revenue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lets make this pretty simple.</p>
<p>First, think of a <span style="font-weight:bold;">&#8220;topic&#8221; </span>that you could talk and blog about forever and ever if possible. Now be sure on that certain topic, know why? because most successful blog earners focus on a single topic. Though its alright if you just wanna blog about whatever for as long as you can drive &#8220;<span style="font-weight:bold;">traffic</span>&#8221; <span style="font-size:78%;">(number of people visiting your blog/</span> <span style="font-size:78%;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">lets discuss this later</span></span>) to your blog and get people to read your content, and make them interested in returning back to your blog to read your future entries.</p>
<p>Second, you have to <span style="font-weight:bold;">sign-up for a free accoun</span>t but if you can afford to pay or host one in your own .com, .net or what have you, You can use the previous entry with <a href="http://moneymechanics.blogspot.com/2007/08/list-of-free-blog-providers.html">the short list of blog</a> as a reference.</p>
<p>Ok. Let&#8217;s get started! (for free blogging)<br />I highly recommend blogger. Why? Simply because its user-friendly, and not just that! <span style="font-style:italic;">Blogger is Powered by Google</span>. If you want adsense easily incorporated in your blog, blogger is the right one to use. You can even have one log-in for your google adsense account, google mail (gmail), as well as your blogger(blogspot).</p>
<p>So first step is&#8230;  <span>you could either just use whatever e-mail address you have to sign up for a google account</span><span style="font-weight:bold;"> or Set-up a new google account. (yourname@gmail.com </span>for instance<span style="font-weight:bold;">) </span>If you already have one then lets go ahead.</p>
<p>Point your browser to <span style="font-weight:bold;">blogger.com</span><br />Currently google has its feature that if you&#8217;re logged in to one of its programs, i.e. gmail. Once you browse to blogger it would automatically log you in using that username and password. If not, then just do the normal log-in procedure. Then, it would prompt you to create your blog.</p>
<p>It will ask you certain information, just follow all the steps. Then it would ask you for the title that you want, description, and the&#8221;<span style="font-weight:bold;">name of your blog</span>&#8220;.</p>
<p>You have to consider choosing a good name for your blog. Example:  http://<span style="color:rgb(255, 0, 0);font-weight:bold;">moneymechanics</span>.blogspot.com (<span style="font-size:78%;">thats my blogs&#8217; name</span>)<br />Be sure to choose a name that people would easily remember and if possible something that is connected to your topic.<span style="font-style:italic;"> But of course you can choose any name for as long as its available</p>
<p></span>Once you&#8217;re done with that part you just continue to the next step which is choosing the template. Later on you&#8217;ll have a lot of choices, and you can customize your templates the way you want them to look like, but for a start, choose a template that you like.</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;re done, You can start creating posts and publishing them.<br />Blogger makes it easy for you do so.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">&#8220;Content&#8221;</span> is  a very important factor for your adsense application to be approved. You must have at least a few solid contents that google can review. Avoid copying and pasting from other websites at this point. If possible write you own original posts from scratch.</p>
<p>Blogger makes it easy for you to customize the look of your blog and to add widgets. Give it a week or two until you have a number of posts that you think would qualify. Remember it&#8217;s a critical point and google could either approve or disapprove your adsense application depending on the results of their reviews.</p>
<p>Once you think your blog is ready. You can go to <span style="font-weight:bold;">adsense.google.com </span><span>or right from your blog you can simply place adsense widget into your blog, it would prompt you if you already have an adsense account then if not it will give you an option to sign-up for one. Once you submit that request, google will process it and will get back to you through e-mail. Google will ask you to provide personal information, be sure to type in your information correctly for there are certain info you can no longer change like your <span style="font-weight:bold;">name, </span><span style="font-style:italic;">which is the most important of all to get the payment</span>.</p>
<p>Give google a couple of days to review your application and your site, then they will send you a feedback if your application was approved. If it is, then you&#8217;re lucky! You can start making money thru adsense! just get your &#8220;pub-xxxxxxxxxxxx&#8221; code and customize the look of your ads to fit your blog.</p>
<p><span style="font-style:italic;">IF your application was not approved  maybe you can ask google why or you can ask yourself why and try to review your own blog.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">Now, the next thing is driving traffic to your blog&#8230;.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size:78%;">AdSense &#8211; From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">AdSense</span> is an ad serving program run by Google. Website owners can enroll in this program to enable text, image and, more recently, video advertisements on their sites. These ads are administered by Google and generate revenue on either a per-click or per-thousand-impressions basis. Google is also currently beta-testing a cost-per-action based service.</p>
<p>Google utilizes its search technology to serve ads based on website content, the user&#8217;s geographical location, and other factors. Those wanting to advertise with Google&#8217;s targeted ad system may sign up through AdWords. AdSense has become a popular method of placing advertising on a website because the ads are less intrusive than most banners, and the content of the ads is often relevant to the website.</p>
<p>Currently, the AdSense uses JavaScript code to incorporate the advertisements into a participating site. If it is included on a site which has not yet been crawled by the Mediabot, it will temporarily display advertisements for charitable causes known as public service announcements (PSAs). (Note that the Mediabot is a separate crawler from the Googlebot that maintains Google&#8217;s search index.)</p>
<p>Many sites use AdSense to monetize their content and some webmasters work hard to maximize their own AdSense income. They do this in three ways:</p>
<p> 1. They use a wide range of traffic generating techniques including but not limited to online advertising.<br /> 2. They build valuable content on their sites which attracts AdSense ads which pay out the most when they get clicked.<br /> 3. They use copy on their websites that encourage clicks on ads. Note that Google prohibits people from using phrases like &#8220;<span style="font-style:italic;">Click on my adX3N53 ads</span>&#8221; to increase click rates. Phrases accepted are &#8220;Sponsored Links&#8221; and &#8220;Advertisements&#8221;.</p>
<p>The source of all AdSense income is the AdWords program which in turn has a complex pricing model based on a Vickrey second price auction, in that it commands an advertiser to submit a sealed bid (not observable by competitors). Additionally, for any given click received, advertisers only pay one bid increment above the second-highest bid.</p>
