Drudge Report: News Site That Sends Readers Away With Links Has Highest Engagement There are two main reasons why news sites are reluctant to send readers away by linking to third-party content. First, you shouldn’t send people away or else they won’t come back to your site. Second, a page with links that sends people away has low engagement, which doesn’t serve advertisers well. But if you actually look at the data, both of these assumptions are completely wrong. Here’s a list of the top 30 news sites for May 2008, ranked by sessions per person (source: Nielsen Online):

When people rent a self storage unit for the first time it is rare that they think about the aspect of purchasing insurance for their possessions within the unit. Realistically, it is a great idea to purchase insurance for your items within your self storage unit simply because if it is worth storing it is worth protecting. Insurance for your self storage unit is really affordable and it is almost a no brainer to purchase insurance for just a few dollars a month for the protection of your items. Self Storage Facility Wouldn't Worsen Flooding, Engineer Says - Government - Fair Lawn-Saddle Brook, NJ Patch A developer has applied to build a new Lackland Self Storage on the border of Saddle Brook and Fair Lawn, near flood-prone homes. The developer of a proposed 121,275-square-foot Midland Avenue self storage facility in Saddle Brook next to Fair Lawn will give easements to the county for drainage systems, but that won't necessarily fix nearby residents' flooding problem. Mark Madaio, the attorney representing Storage Assets, LLC 's application to build the Lackland Self Storage and truck rental facility, said during a special Saddle Brook Zoning Board meeting Tuesday that they would agree to give the easement to Bergen County as a condition of the plan's approval. The easement would cross both pieces of the proposed-to-be subdivided property and another neighboring property with the same owner. For flood-prone residents, that means relief from rising waters may not be coming anytime soon, even if the self storage plan is approved.

What a Week Wasn’t it just last week that we were digging out from a heavy wet snow that had electricity off to millions of our neighbors in the Tri State area? I was very lucky although we lost power at my house at least a half a dozen times, we did not lose it for very long. I have friends and co workers that were not that lucky. On Sunday I went to the facility in Wayne to check on things and was happy to see that although Wayne did lose power on Sunday, we did not have any damage to the property. It wasn’t long after the last snow flake fell that the property was clear of snow. While I was checking on things in Wayne my daughter was kind enough to use the snow blower and clean my driveway.

Americans are choking in clutter and defined by storage units They have become a defining characteristic of the roadside, wedged in among the malls and fast-food franchises, barracks-like rows of buildings with small garage doors, surrounded by a fence. A gated enclave for excess stuff. There are 2.3 billion square feet of self-storage space in America, or more than 7 square feet for every, man, woman and child in the country. Renting a Storage Station is no longer a luxury Years ago having more than 1 car in a family was a luxury. You were classified as very rich to be blessed with this advantage. Today almost every driver in a household has a car. This is largely due to our lifestyles today and the importance of being independent to come and go as needed and not have to rely on anyone person to take us here and there. Well, the same goes with storage. We have run out of storage spaces in our homes, due to the fact that most of us keep anything and everything.
