	At the beginning of Twilight, when Edward Cullen first states his attraction towards Bella Swan, Alice is interested. She had a vision about she and Bella becoming friends and knew there was a distinct possibility that it would one day happen. Therefore, she is very supportive of the relationship between Edward and Bella. When Bella comes to visit the Cullens' house, Alice is polite and friendly, acting as if Bella is already a member of her family. With her mental powers, Alice also knows that Bella could very well become a vampire and the spouse of her adopted brother.

Jasper Hale

2010-09-09T17:59:53Z

New page

'''Jasper Hale''' (born '''Jasper Whitlock''') is a fictional character from [[Stephenie Meyer|Stephenie Meyer's]] ''[[Twilight (series)|Twilight]]'' series.

== Personal History ==
Jasper Hale, formally known as Jasper Whitlock, was born in [[1843]] and grew up in Houston, Texas. In 1861 when he was almost seventeen, he lied about his age, stating he was 20, and joined the [[Confederate States Army]] to serve in the [[Civil War]]. Due to his intense charisma, he quickly rose through the ranks, and became the youngest [[Major]] in the [[Confederate Army]].

Jasper was turned into a [[vampire]] in 1863 by a vampire named Maria, when he was 20 years old. Maria was fighting a territorial war for claim on big cities in the south, such as [[Mexico City]]. Maria recognized that Jasper he was high-ranking in the army, and therefore already had some knowledge of combat skills. She wanted a strong male vampire who could fight alongside her. When Maria found out about his peculiar ability to control the emotions of those around him, she found him even more useful.

Jasper's responsibility was to train the young vampires and then kill them when they were no longer useful to Maria, usually after about a year when their strength had begun to fade. After about a century of this, he grew wary of the lifestyle. An old vampire colleague of his, named Peter, persuaded him to escape from Maria. For a time, he wandered with Peter and his companion, Charlotte, but soon came to feel remorse for his prey because he lived their emotions as he took their lives. As a result, he ran away and wandered on his own until he found [[Mary Alice Cullen|Alice Cullen]], who he later recognized as his true love, waiting for him in a half-empty diner in [[Philadelphia]]. She had seen through her prescience they would find the Cullens and live there together in relative peace.

The Cullens tell humans that Jasper is [[Rosalie Hale|Rosalie's]] twin brother; for this purpose, they both use Rosalie's surname of "Hale". Out of the whole coven, Jasper has the hardest time being around humans, due to his untrained upbringing as a young vampire in an army environment. He was not taught control or how to regulate his blood lust. [[Edward Cullen (Twilight)|Edward]] states that all human blood is equally tempting to Jasper, unlike the rest of the family, who can notice the variations in blood scent in different humans.

== Appearance ==
Jasper is 6'3" and has golden honey blond hair. He is muscular but lean. Like the other Cullens, he has pale, marble-like skin and bruise-like purple shadows under his eyes,which appear gradually as his thirst increases. He has golden eyes, like all animal-feeding ("vegetarian") vampires, which turn darker, eventually becoming black, as he grows thirstier. He has many crescent-shaped scars on his arms from the bites of vampires he fought on Maria's behalf. The white scars are invisible unless contrasted by a strong light, and then only because they are slightly raised against his skin and cast a shadow.

== Romantic Relationships ==

===Alice Cullen===
Jasper first met Alice after escaping the vampire wars he had been involved in. Alice was sitting on a stool in a diner in Philadelphia waiting for him, having used her ability to see into the future to foresee that they would meet there. Jasper, a little taken aback by her knowing him, apologized sheepishly to her when she teased him about how long she had been waiting for him. Alice offered him her hand in a silent request to leave the diner and start a new life together. Jasper, as quoted from ''[[Eclipse (novel)|Eclipse]]'', "For the first time in almost a century...felt hope" at this gesture, and accepted her hand They fell in love and eventually found the Cullen family together. They have been a part of the Cullen family ever since.

It is stated throughout the ''Twilight'' series that Alice and Jasper have a special, somewhat private relationship. Their distinctly understanding love is what separates them from the other couples in the Cullen family. They aren't as flamboyant about their relationship as [[Rosalie Hale|Rosalie]] and [[Emmett Cullen|Emmett]] are. The two are very committed and protective of each other, and have been married legally.

== Vampire Abilities ==
Some vampires have extra abilities beyond the norm which are an amplification of an ability they had as a human (e.g. an intuitive mind could be able to read minds as a vampire). Because he was charismatic as a human, Jasper can feel and manipulate the emotions of others. Like other vampires in the ''Twilight'' series, he also has super strength and speed, granite hard skin, immortality, and a keen sense of smell and hearing. In [[Eclipse (novel)|Eclipse]], during the training Jasper gives the Cullens and [[Quileutes]], it is noted that Jasper was on par with Edward's skills despite Edward's mind reading ability. This is seen during their sparring, which only stopped when Carlisle told them to, suggesting that it could have continued perhaps indefinitely.

==Personality==
Jasper could be mistaken for cold because of his highly analytical and military mindset. However, his relationship with Alice displays his warmer side. The fact that he suffered depression after his years in Maria's service suggests a strong sense of conscience and grief over his perceived wrong-doings. When he was human he was described as being extremely charismatic, and therefore very likable. He has also been shown to be a strong and forceful leader through his rapid ascent through the ranks of the Confederate Army. The fact that he is always a soothing presence shows that he wishes others to feel well and at ease, and will do his best to make that occur. Jasper is highly intuitive but also never takes advantage of his miraculous gift, showing that he is not malicious and chooses not to manipulate others. While the Cullens are gone in ''[[New Moon (novel)|New Moon]]'', Jasper studies [[philosophy]] at [[Cornell University]]. In the opening chapter of the yet to be published ''[[Midnight Sun (novel)|Midnight Sun]]'', Jasper is shown as being deeply ashamed of his urge to drain the life from the humans around him.<ref>[http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/pdf/midnightsun_chapter1.pdf StephenieMeyer.com | Midnight Sun]</ref> It also shows that he has what could be described as a lower thirst threshold, in that he has trouble controlling his thirst sooner after feeding than the other Cullens.

== Movie Portrayal ==
On February 15, 2008 it was announced that [[Jackson Rathbone]] will be playing the role of Jasper Hale in the upcoming [[Twilight (2008 film)|''Twilight'']] film.<ref>[http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/twilight_movie.html StephenieMeyer.com | Twilight Series | Twilight | Twilight the Movie]</ref>

SEO 2.0

SEO 2.0, original material provided by G. Kohs, posted to Wikipedia under Creative Commons By-Sa 3.0

'''SEO 2.0''' (''Search Engine Optimization 2.0'') refers to newer [[search engine optimization]] strategies in the era of [[Web 2.0]]. While a more traditional search engine optimization objective is to achieve first-page or even top-result for a single web page or domain in [[search engine results page]]s (SERPs), the newer SEO 2.0 strategy includes saturating the first page of SERPs with related targeted content from various Web 2.0 venues like video sites (for example [[YouTube]]), social networks (for example [[MySpace]]), blogs, and image hosting sites (such as [[Flickr]]). It also entails exploiting the nature of Web 2.0 networks to gain more [[user-generated content|user-generated]] backlinks and traffic to a target site or brand.

==History==
While the prevalence of adding "2.0" to a common term to form a new moniker is widespread, the phrase SEO 2.0 dates to 2006 and is credited to C. Cimring, a co-founder of [[Search Engine Partner]]. When SEO 2.0 was first described in [[New Media Age]] in May 2006, [[SEO specialist]]s were "expanding out of their silos and moving into [[Public Relations|PR]] and broader [[marketing communication]]s". The article explained that "the explosion of [[blog]]s, [[podcast]]s and community sites is giving [[customer]]s the power to make or break [[reputation]]s, so they can’t be ignored."

Later in 2006, [[Media Post]]'s R. Garner associated SEO 2.0 with "new difficulties" presented to webmasters and search optimizers by rich [[Internet application]]s such as [[Flash]], [[JavaScript]], and [[XML]] (including [[AJAX]]) that don't produce indexed pages with a unique [[Uniform Resource Locator|URL]] address.

In May 2007, [[Google]] introduced its "Universal search" program, making even more important the implications of search optimization across news, images, video, and groups.

By December 2007, SEO 2.0 had become a topic of expertise and debate at a professional trade conference.

==Techniques==
SEO 2.0 techniques may include a wide range of practices, ranging from [[white hat]] to [[black hat]] tactics. One described technique involved a commercial wedding stationer that set up a deliberately humorous gallery of wedding photos that they hoped other sites would make fun of. In only two days, thanks to posts at social bookmarking sites like [[Digg]] and [[Del.icio.us]], the album had spawned 1,440 backlinks to the stationer’s site.

==Criticism==
Some have questioned whether SEO 2.0 is a completely new function, or whether it is merely a change of names intended only for promotion to attract new customers, similar to how businesses might try to build their environmental image by labeling themselves "green", without really making any substantive changes in practice. Breathless press releases that claim SEO 2.0 will "pull the U.S. out of recession" do not add to the legitimacy of the strategy.

A '''command and control economy''' is one in which the government makes the decisions. For example, one might look to a central planner to increase production of widgets. In its more insidious form the populace looks to the government for more jobs, hiring, and "stimulus" projects. These are all paid for by taking money out of the economy in the form of taxes.

[[Joe Craig]], award-winning author of the ''[[Jimmy Coates]]'' teen spy series, reviewed the new version in July 2010 and wrote: "The pace is unlike any thriller I’ve read before, while the period setting and the backstory built up around the characters mark it out as something different from other action adventure books for a young audience. Basically, you have to check out ''Fledgling: Jason Steed''. He’ll win your heart, then get it pumping with adrenalin. It’s [[James Bond]] meets [[Karate Kid]], and if either of them ever met Jason Steed, they’d be in big trouble."<ref name="joecraig">{{cite web|url=http://markacooper.com/Reviews.aspx|accessdate=2010-07-01 |author=Mark Cooper website|title=Joe Craig review |year=2010}}</ref>
