I remember my time as a child and my efforts to please and emulate the actions of my dad. Although we were not the same, every effort was made on my part to copy his every action. My dad was a tough act to follow. He was beloved by all the members of the family. He had a true sense of honesty and seemed to know instinctively the right path in life to follow. I knew that I would always fall short in my efforts to copy his very essence. He seemed to never falter when everything around him was falling to pieces. He was a good man in the strictest sense. I always wondered at the fact that while dad was a moral and upright man he could be an immoveable object who refused to give ground to anyone when he knew he was right. My feeling when I was growing up was that my dad, uncles and almost every male figure in the family lived by a code that I had trouble understanding. Dad could be the kindest man on the face of the earth while still being the most stubborn man that I had ever faced.

At his funeral most of the family was torn to bits emotionally. My mother showed her strong side refusing to show most signs of weakness. The men in the family were affected in the most severe fashion. Several of dad’s grandsons broke down emotionally and some went into hiding for several weeks. It was next to impossible for me to work. It was all that I could do to even function at minimal capacities. There were people crying and wailing during the service. The preacher offered his take on dad. I remember the words echoing the fact that throughout the turmoil and storms in the family that dad behaved like a rock.He was unshakeable. That was true but I knew that dad had another side to his character. After watching his every action while growing up I knew that he could not be intimidated by anyone. He loved his family more than he could put into words. I knew that if anyone made the mistake of threatening his family they would be sure to live to regret that mistake. He had no fear of anyone. Although he exhibited high moral standing in most areas anyone threatening his family became his achilles heel. He could be forced into situations that could end up badly for his antagonist. I don’t know how but everyone survived these encounters.

While moving my mother from one house to another I encountered an old gentleman who had known dad all of his life. In answer to his inquiries I responded that I was his son. The old man had told me of his respect and admiration for my dad and offered his condolences concerning his death. He then added that he believed dad to be the most honest person he had ever met during his long life. Dad was a hard act to follow. I believe that dad came from an era that appreciated and put much faith in the attributes that he exhibited during his life. The only sure thing in life is change.

I married a fine woman and we had children. I had tried to be a role model like my dad had been for me. I had sons. Distractions became a major factor in our relationships. I gave time and effort into my childrens upbringing. I felt that my sons and I did not have the same connection as my father and I had enjoyed. Many factors lead to this distraction. Bad television, peer pressure, alcohol and drugs condoned for use and consumption by our children by outside influences led to a dysfunctional attitude in our family. I could never reach my children concerning their correct moral and ethical behavior on a full time basis. They exhibited great behavior in most instances but always weakness forced them into bad behavior. Viewing the television news and accepting reports of sons killing their families and other hideous acts perpetrated by these kids made me feel lucky. Everyone is doing it. Drugs, alcohol and bad behavior have led to a degradation in our society. Role models are few. Kids sometimes rebel against their parents’ wishes. The only hope that we can cling to is time. In time our kids will hopefully understand the life lessons that have been taught to them and will act accordingly. We can only hope that the scriptures in the bible will ring true and that our kids will return to the initial teachings offered by their parents even though they have strayed momentarily from the truth. Time may be our best friend or our worst enemy. Time will tell.

Submitting sitemap to major search engines is an important and effective way to get indexed all of web pages quickly. Often webmaster has two types of sitemaps- HTML sitemap and XML sitemap.

HTML Sitemap is for user benefit and not for to submit it to search engines. Having an html sitemap on a site makes it easy to access to its users as if a user looking for any page of your website then he can click on sitemap to get all links for internal web pages.

XML sitemap is for Search engines it helps search engine spider to crawl all the URLs more frequently at the same place because it provides more information to search engine spider. An XML sitemap includes list of all URLs of a site with information like when it was updated, how much time it usually takes to have some change, what is the importance of a particular page in comparison to others.

Creating an XML Sitemap:

Creating an error free sitemap is also so important because if you have even a little error it may cause of indexing problems. So if your hosting providers provide utilities to create your sitemap then its good and if not then also no need to worry as some free or paid tools are also available on the web.

For creating XML sitemap you can use xml-sitemaps.com. It is really a better option to create XML sitemap to a website. It is so easy to just go to site and enter your site URL into the generator box you also have options to change frequency, last modification date and priority and then click on start. In a few minutes, XML sitemap will generate. Just copy-and-paste the resulting sitemap into notepad, save it and upload to your site with the file name: sitemap.xml

If you want to validate the XML prior uploading to the search engines look at the XML validator where you can put in the URL of your sitemap and check it according to the standard.

Submitting sitemap to Google:

Google originally developed the XML schema which defines the structure of an XML document for sitemaps. You can submit your XML sitemap to Google through Google webmaster tools at by creating an account at-

www.google.com/webmasters/tools

To submit a sitemap to Google you also have to prove that you are the owner of the particular website. The verification is achieved by adding a meta tag between the head tags on your site homepage.

Submitting site/sitemap to Yahoo:

Submitting sitemap to Yahoo is not very different from submitting a sitemap to Google. Yahoo! Site Explorer is a dedicated service for webmasters from Yahoo. First you need to create a yahoo account to submit a site/sitemap to yahoo then go to-

siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/

and submit your website URL and click to “add my site” button. After that click on verification button then you get an option to download a verification key html file which you will need to upload to root directory of your web server.

You can then download a verification key html file – which you will need to upload to the root directory of your web server. After uploading verification key, come back to Site Explorer and click to start authentication. Verification process may take up to 24 hours. Here you can also add your sitemap by clicking on the manage button and then adding the sitemap as a feed.

Submit site to MSN:

Like yahoo you need not to have an msn account to submit your site you can submit your site URL to MSN just by going to-

http://search.msn.com.my/docs/submit.aspx?FORM=WSUT

MSN do not support direct submission of sitemap, they do suggest on their blog that you add a reference to your Sitemap into your robots.txt file.

For example:

User-agent: * Sitemap: http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml

Disallow: /cgi-bin/

This would tell MSN and also to other search engines to crawl your sitemap file but not to crawl your cgi-bin directory.

Above information will sure help you in creating and submitting your sitemap to major search engines. If you have any comments or queries feel free to send it to me.
