			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Search engines see different domains as different sites. For instance:<br />
&#8220;www.attorneyproz.com&#8221; is different from &#8220;attorneyproz.com.&#8221;</p>
<p>The www part of the url (referred to as the subdomain) is important when considering how to structure your URL&#8217;s.  So its important to make all of you URLS redirect to one place. Below is a chunk of code you can add to your .htaccess file in your root directory to clean up this multi-domain issue known as <a href="http://www.searchenginejournal.com/canonicalization-seo-should-i-use-www-or-not/6950/">Canonicalization</a>.</p>
<p>RewriteEngine On<br />
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^socialpatterns\.com$ [NC]<br />
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.socialpatterns.com/$1 [R=301,L]</p>
<p>To learn more about what this code means and what it does checkout <a href="http://www.socialpatterns.com/search-engine-marketing/cleaning-up-canonical-urls-with-redirects/">SEO marketing tips from www.socialpatterns.com</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The wild things were cool, but the story was pointless. They got too artsy with it; there was no purpose, no meaning, no lesson learned, nothing to take away. The story just didn&#8217;t resolve, or connect, or mature into anything. It was a 2 hour display of human negativity.</p>
<p>The emotions of the creatures and max were to complicated, mixed, and obscure for a child to get let alone an adult.</p>
<p>The movie was very depressing and treated emotions like they were a depressing part of life that you just had to put up with. And the movie focused almost completely on the negative emotions. Very little was positive and if there was something positive iit was short lived because something negative would always come wipe it away.</p>
<p> It was very disappointing watching this film. I expected something better, something simpler for a book that was a big part of my childhood.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t take your kids they will be bored to death watching this film.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I have recently started playing with Twitter again. I signed up for an account long ago but never made anything of it. I have been waiting to find a decent use for it before I started investing any real time into it.</p>
<p>Well, I&#8217;ve found a use. And now Twitter has jump started me into a whole new realm of prospects and potential. Maybe not in the ways I would have initially thought but its definitely been eye opening.</p>
<p>I am still trying to find Twitters real value. And its not been easy sifting through the mounds of tweeting  garbage being posted everyday. But I am certain that if I keep mining through the data we will eventually find a few nuggets of wisdom and value.</p>
<p>Follow me on twitter and lets see what we can find.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you seen the Ads for the new terminator ride at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia? Did you notice how they don&#8217;t actually show you the roller coaster? Well thats because they don&#8217;t want you to know their dirty little secret. The new Terminator is the old Psychlone roller coaster. They just changed the name!</p>
<p>Imagine how disappointed my whole family was when we went to six flags to check it out. What a scam. Don&#8217;t waste your time if your looking for a new ride.</p>
