Firstly, cover a suitably large area with a dust cover. It can be very messy indeed!

Then get a strong balloon. The type of balloon you choose is crucial. Do not choose a modelling balloon as they tend to burst very easily. It is important to choose a thick, rubber balloon. Any shape will do although round is probably easiest.

Next, half blow up the balloon. Pinch and hold it closed at the neck with your fingers. Then insert a small filling funnel into the neck. Partly fill it with flour, gravy granules or similar. Finally, gently let go of the neck allowing some air to escape gently up the outside of the funnel. As it does so, your chosen stress ball filling will disappear into the balloon. Be patient! This step takes some practise and can get quite messy!

Gently re-inflate the partly filled balloon and repeat until the balloon is filled to the required extent with the filling.

The long-hair styles of the nineteenth century began to give way to shorter hairstyles like “the bob” during the early 1920′s, a trend which continued to grow in popularity. The original straight, plain, and relatively simple short bobbed hair styles of the early 1920′s were transformed into much more interesting and feminine bobs (with stylish curls and waves) in the middle to late twenties. The stylish bobbed hairstyles of the late nineteen twenties continued their popularity well into the 1930′s. The beautiful short hairstyles of this trend setting era have enjoyed a revival in modern times as hair stylists look back to this period for inspiration.

The most popular hairstyles of the nineteen twenties included the bob, marcel wave, finger wave, and shingle, all of which came with numerous variations. Other hairstyles like the Eton Crop were only temporary phenomenons. Barbers and hairdressers were in competition with each other for the cream of this booming hairdressing business, as women of all ages sacrificed their long tresses on the altar of fashion.

As early adopters of the new shorter hair styles, 1920′s movie stars and other celebrities played a big part in popularizing the new hair fashions through appearances in movies and stage shows, the new hairstyles they sported being eagerly copied by their adoring fans. The high cost of permanent waves when they first became commonly available did not put off women seeking a more permanent hair styling treatment.

In the 1920′s short hair for women was “in” and rapidly took over from the previously fashionable long hair styles. Bobbed hairstyles were considered extremely radical and unattractive by many to begin with but young women and middle aged women embraced the style in increasing numbers. The initial plain bobs were eventually replaced by more stylish and sophisticated bobs that featured waves and curls to add style and interest. Early critics predicted that bobs would be a short-lived fad that would last a couple of years at most and were surprised to find that they continued to grow in popularity well into the 1930′s. In actual fact, the mass migration to bobbed hairstyles turned out to be part of a major revolution in womens hairstyling.

Stress balls are squishy balls, which are repeatedly squeezed and rolled between the hands by stressed out users to relieve pent up stress and tension. They are also known as stress relievers, stress toys or stress relief balls.

In the original stress balls, which were made of robust polyurethane foam rubber, the bubbles created during the production of the foam itself produced the necessary “squidgy” feel. However there are increasingly different versions around these days. The texture and robustness of the stress ball is essential to its proper use. And whilst the most common shape for a stress ball is spherical, they can come in virtually any shape, sizes and color. The different shapes are particularly used for promotional stress balls.  The wide variations between different types of stress ball means it is important to choose one that suits your needs.

Many people buy stress balls because they are simple, small and portable. They are affordable and come in lots of cheery bight colours. Some come with integral sparkle glitter and some even vibrate. Despite their bright colors, stress balls are not toys and are never recommended for children.

Simply squeezing on a stress ball can ease the tension and stress which has built up during the day. However stress balls can only be used as effective stress relievers as part of an active stress management program.

In my last post I had a section regarding on page SEO and in particular some information on controlling how ranking is passed from a website. If you are spending any money on affiliate marketing you should be aware of the ranking flow on your site.

The ranking or authority of a website is determined on such aspects as popularity of the website (amount of traffic), number of income links and their quality, number of pages and on page SEO factors. Before I carry on, when I talk about ranking I am not referring to google page ranking, I am referring to the general ranking of a website for all search engines.

As all search engines have their own algorithm’s for ranking websites and unfortunately they don’t share that with the general public, it is impossible to determine exactly how website ranking is worked out. The only thing that is known for certain is onpage SEO, incoming links and amount of pages of a website, play a big part in a websites ranking.

The ranking of a website is probably the most valuable asset to a site owner, it can mean the difference between making a fortune on the Internet or just making some pocket change. Why is it so important? Well the ranking determines where a website is displayed in the search engines, a better ranking equals better placement and in turn better placement equals more clicks.

Like I explained in the previous post, imagine a website main webpage is a bucket which is filled with ranking from SEO effects and there are holes at the bottom of the bucket were the ranking flows out. As ranking is such a valuable asset it’s wise to direct the ranking to were you want it to go by blocking off those holes were the rankings not needed. I am talking about such pages as contact us, terms and condition, disclaimer, category pages, terms of use and pages along those lines. As those kind of pages are designed to improve the customer experience they won’t need SEO on them, so why waste the precious ranking on them.

The two methods I am going to use to control the ranking flow on my website are the html statement ‘nofollow’ and robots.txt. Both of these methods are very simple but very powerful in helping search engines figure out how you want them to see your website and were to direct the ranking.

The ‘nofollow’ statement tells the search engine to ignore the link it is associated with and not to pass any ranking through it. It was first created to help tackle spam comments on blogs but was quickly taken up by website owners when it became common knowledge that it was significant in controlling the flow of ranking on a website.

robots.txt is used to control the spiders that visit a website. A large part of a website traffic comes from programs called spiders, these spiders are used by thousands of companies for many different reasons on the Internet. So if a website is just left open for spiders they can eat up the bandwidth, slow a site down, look at and log information which a site owner may not want to publish and at the very worse mess up a site completely. How does robots.txt help with ranking control? Well it can be used to block off areas of a website were site owners don’t want the spiders to go and by doing so stops the flow of ranking to those areas.

The two methods above are not difficult to implement and are a good way to control the flow of ranking on a website, yet so many website owners overlook this when designing their sites. Having the power to shift ranking around a website will enable a site owner to rank the pages of their choosing with a lot less work and hassle.
