A total of 6000 km2 is land, 85% were dalah ocean. Wow! Approximately there are 610 islands, only about 35 inhabited islands only. The rest have not inhabited, but already have a name, but there are also some who do not yet have a name. There are 4 here the largest group of islands, namely Pulau Misool, Salawati Island, Batanta Island, and Island Waigeo.

Halmahera Edy, hell is that?

There was Halmahera Edy! Hell hell, Halmahera Edy's?

More precisely this way, the condition of the waters of the Raja Ampat Islands are influenced by water masses from the western Pacific Ocean. The proof is, the current that moves from east to northeast direction (North-East) and parallel to the northern mainland of Papua.

When we reached the Sea Halmahera in the north of Raja Ampat, most current moving southward and toward shipping lanes Jailolo. There is also a small flow turning towards Dampier Strait. Just info, Dampier Strait is the strait that connects the Island and Island Batanta Waigeo.

Most of the flow is then turned toward the Pacific Ocean. Well, this is the current named Edy Halmahera by the researchers. The existence of these currents makes the waters of the Raja Ampat to be very fertile. Plus, the seawater surface temperature around 28 o C to 27oC at a certain depth. Light can penetrate up to 30-37 meters with a very high salinity. That is why, very abundant coral reefs in Raja Ampat. Plankton that are part of coral reef ecosystems are also abundant.

Coral reef ecosystems were able to actively manage its own food for organsisme-organisms in it. Although coral reefs are usually grown in sea waters which oligoptrik (which has the nutrients and very little nutrients.) So no wonder, when the waters of Raja Ampat is the gathering place a variety of fish species because of the needs of producers of food (plankton) to consumers (the fish) are met.

How to Create Google Adsense Pages
First let me preface this article by stating that you should NOT create pages for the "gaming" of AdSense. Most companies who use AdWords are small to medium sized businesses trying to grow.

With rampant click fraud, those advertisers won't be able to advertise, and AdSense won't pay out as well.

That said, let's begin the process.

For our example, our topic is that of "widgets", so where do get started?

Create the page - Sounds simple enough, but there are some coding standards you should always use. They are:
Name of the page - Use the name of the keyword you are targeting. So, in this example it would be widget.htm. You can use your web server's technology as well, but if in doubt, you can never go wrong with the .htm
Title the page - Use the keyword again for the title.
Meta Tags - Yes, they are still used. Make sure you include the keywords in your meta keyword list, and give a definition of the word in your meta description tag
H1 - Put your keyword in stylized H1 tags. Use CSS to make the tag look consistent to the rest of your site
Content - This is often the biggest obstacle non-writers have. Don't worry, follow these steps and you'll soon be on your way to original content.
Go to MSN, Yahoo and Google
Enter your keyword into the search box
Look at the top 5 sites listed from each search engine
Educate yourself on the topic from the content found on these sites
Page Copy - Now that you've absorbed more information, compose your own page of ORIGINAL content. You can take bits and pieces from the other pages, but be sure to inject your personality into your writing. That will make it uniquely yours.

Links - Don't forget to link to authority sites about your subject. It's very natural for web pages to have links to other sites, don't forget about this key point. Take a moment to see why you need outbound links.

Traffic - The most obvious is getting traffic to your site. Your site will have higher paying ads if your page gets more traffic. If you need help with this, be sure to visit the SEO resources section.

Personally, I tried using the traffic generating sites, and quite frankly, they are a waste of time. Sure you'll build up your traffic numbers, but it's usually from an autosurfing program.

One last note. On September 1st, 2005 Google shut down my account because they suspected click fraud. I really don't have a problem with them shutting me down, because as an advertiser I want to know that they are watching my money. However, I believe they should show proof of the supposed fraudulent activity. I was even proactive in letting them know when I saw suspicious activity, but they never replied to my inquires.

Here's a great article on what to watch for, and how click fraud is committed.

I hope you have better luck than I did.

Ramayana Ballet, Drama in Typical Javanese Dance



Ramayana ballet is an art show beautiful, amazing and difficult to compare. This performance is able to unite various Javanese arts such as dance, drama and music on one stage and one momentum to present the Ramayana story, legendary epic written by Valmiki in Sanskrit.

Protection failed because after Ravana kidnapped Shinta successfully transform themselves into Durna character.

But when brought back, Rama Shinta just do not believe anymore and consider it has been tainted. To prove the holiness, Shinta asked to burn herself.
