5 Jan 2010Using a special animated logo, Google has paid tribute today to the English physicist, mathematician and astronomer Sir Isaac Newton who was born on this day in 1643.
It’s widely recorded that Newton *discovered* the concept of gravity (and the resulting science of physics) as a result of observing apples falling from a tree.
In tribute, the drop apple theme is mimicked on Google’s global Home Page today.
The Google logo is partly obscured by the branch of an apple tree. After a second or so, an apple drops from the branch to the bottom of the home page. It’s unusual for Google to create an animated tribute Doodle and it makes a nice change from the static images.
Clicking on the logo takes you to SERPs for the search query “Isaac Newton”.
Apart from his wide influence on modern physical science, Newton also made great strides in mathematical research, chemistry, history and theology. See the logo in action below:

It looks to me that if you are weak in math you will have very little chance to be a Physicist. Why aren't you studying Physics right now if that is your interest? For Physics you need advanced Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and probably Calculus, at least in the USA.

Speech of tribute…hmmm…well I don't know exactly what everyone in your class is doing, but here are some ideas
The Truth group ( the ones on MTV, who are against the tobacco companies). They work REALLY hard and come up with very interesting ideas to get people to be aware of greedy executives and harmful effectives of their products.
Martin Luther King Jr. Stood up for equal rights and did it non-violently, even when he was attacked violently. Died for his rights to be equal. That deserves tribute right there.
Jesus…who better to give tribute to, but you probably can't do that in school.
George Washington…first president…first man to stand up and represent our great country.
Firefighters, policemen, soliders…they put themselves in harms way to protect us! They are very courageous! Probably the easiest to do too.
Doctors, nurses…take care of people day in and day out and give everyday to save lives.
Teachers…they are educating the future leaders of tomorrow and they never get enough credit for it, ever!
Last that I can think of is volunteers…in the community or ones that go to greater lengths like helping evacuees of natural disasters.

That proves nothing. A great percentage of the people on that list lived one or two generations ago, when atheism was a taboo subject. Your religion was as much a part of your identity as your nationality.

Read the old testament.God forbid the eating of a animal with a split Huff. He said it was unclean. A pig was one of them.
Acts 10. Paul had a dream and these foods were used as an example to say unclean associations. Spoke about prejudices in religion.
The Jews were forbidden to eat anything impure or unclean.
But he heard God's voice and he said "Do not call anything impure or unclean that God has made clean."
God has never played favorites but because of the sins of men and the hardness of their hearts he allowed many prejudices in the old testaments.
Now God says old things have passed away and behold now old things have become new. It makes no difference who you are or where you come from,if you want God and are ready to do as he says,the door is open.

the size range comes from printing, not taking the picture.
Now, if you are printing at home, paste teh image on a larger white page, then print, or crop the image, then print. Either way, when you are done, cut the image to the size you want.
If you are having them printed, do the same thing, but you have to wait.

It depends on what you have your site map set on. You can tell google to come back hourly, daily, weekly or monthly. You also need to make sure you have an allow robot.txt in your header.
If you have neither, then google will crawl you usually with in 2 weeks or sooner. Let's say you have a link on my site and I get crawled tomorrow. If you are not telling google when, then your link will be followed from my site and crawled tomorrow.
Also remember, being crawled does not reflect your ranking.
Always update your Google site map any time you make any page ext changes as well. Change, delete or add and update site map.
this is all with google webmasters

Apple juice: juice of apples.
Apple cider: may contain some apple bits, but pretty much the same thing.
I like my cider warm with nutmeg and a cinnamon stick to swirl.
