I wanted to test if indeed blogger has some special power when it comes to indexing a new blog post in Google. so here is my test.
I will report on this experiment at a later time but stay posted:

we all know indexing is critical in seo..
After waiting overnight all of them indexed but the dailystrenght.org and live journal.com
Still a very exciting test and very promising.

Janka Hardness Scale-what is it?
Janka Hardness Scale
In order to help customers navigate their way securely thru the many options available to them when they choose their floor coverings or hardwood flooring like in this case, one of the many metrics used today is a measure form called Janka Hardness Rating, or scale.What is it?
The Janka hardness test measures the resistance of a type of wood to withstand denting and wear. It measures the force required to embed an 11.28 mm (0.444 in) steel ball into wood to half the ball's diameter. This method leaves an indentation. A common use of Janka hardness ratings is to determine whether a species is suitable for use as flooring. As so aptly described here by wikipediahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janka_hardness_test .
If me and You were engineers, (we are not), we would measure that force required, and than determine which Hardwood Flooring is harder.
For that purpose we commonly use this Rating - Scale - Chart.
Here is some charts I took from the web, some are more descriptive than others...Some are more colorful than others.In this chart you see Higher Ratings toward the bottom...a bit counter intuitive if you ask me..
Red oak is considered the standard and it gives us a result of 1,290 on the Janka scale, and is considered to be the standard. White oak is a little harder coming in at 1,360. Bamboo is also harder at 1,380 and Maple shows a rating of 1,450.<
>
Here is another interesting picture, and it tells the story very effectively:
In this particular chart you see that harder woods are set up at the top of the chart.
Did you notice? Most if not all of the hardest woods in the world come from South America.
The popular Brazilian Cherry is 2,350 - almost twice as hard as red oak. And, Brazilian walnut
also named Ipe, comes in at 3,684 - nearly triple the hardness of red oak.

Maple, a beautiful hardwood flooring
Maple
comes primarily form the northern United states and Canada.
Maple flooring has numerous benefits for homeowners
looking for a new floor – not least its sturdiness and aesthetic appeal.
The maple tree comes in many different types with varying wood grain
patterns and is perhaps best known for being the source of that Canadian
favourite, maple syrup.
However, it is the maple wood itself that tends to attract
attention from those looking to update their homes. Maple is usually
relatively light in colour, but its markings can be significantly darker
– making for a particularly striking appearance. The wood is also very
strong, meaning that homeowners can be confident they are investing in
flooring that will last for years to come.
As you can see in this chart Sugar Maple also called Hard Maple or
Rock Maple has a Janka hardness rating of 1450. By comparison Red Oak
has a hardness rating of 1290, making Maple 13% harder than Oak….That
means a more durable and dent resistant type of floor. A true domestic
exotic. It is this quality along with the clear light color that makes
Maple flooring a favorite of contractors for gymnasiums, bowling alleys
and dance floors.
The way Maple looks, and therefore it’s grading are primarily related
to the zone of the United States where the material comes from. Check
out this informative video from Carlisle floors, and see them explain
how it’s all about location, location, location!! Yes the northern grown
species are preferred to the southern grown species.

Appearance
Maple
wood flooring also has a wonderful appearance. Due to the fact that
Maple is nonporous it takes very good to the finishing process, giving
it a glistening appearance. Other Hardwoods by contrast sometime show a
bit of a rough look due to the fact they are a lot more porous.
