From the Back Cover
—Gregory V. Wilson, Dr. Dobbs Journal (October 2004)
No one can disparage the ability to write good code. At its highest levels, it is an art.
But no one can confuse writing good code with developing good software. The difference—in terms of challenges, skills, and compensation—is immense.
Coder to Developer helps you excel at the many non-coding tasks entailed, from start to finish, in just about any successful development project. What's more, it equips you with the mindset and self-assurance required to pull it all together, so that you see every piece of your work as part of a coherent process. Inside, you'll find plenty of technical guidance on such topics as:
- Choosing and using a source code control system
- Code generation tools—when and why
- Preventing bugs with unit testing
- Tracking, fixing, and learning from bugs
- Application activity logging
- Streamlining and systematizing the build process
- Traditional installations and alternative approaches

3.3: Subtracting Fractions
Plenty of Peaches
Jesse has decided to make peach pie for the bake sale. His recipe calls for \begin{align*}2 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*} pounds of peaches. Jesse's older brother Jeff drives him to the farmer's market to pick up his peaches. When Jesse gets there, he is amazed at how fast paced the market is. There are several people working behind the counter and they seem to be adding up all of the figures in their heads. Jesse is amazed. He loves math but he can't even imagine adding up so many numbers in his head at one time.
Jesse is fascinated. So much so that he loses his focus and puts many, many peaches in his cloth bag. When the girl weighs it, Jesse watches her do the math in her head. She tells Jesse how much he owes and he pays her. Then she hands Jesse back the bag.
"How many pounds is this?" Jesse asks.
"You bought \begin{align*}6 \frac{1}{4}\end{align*} pounds of peaches," She says focusing on another customer.
Jesse is surprised. He knows that he wasn't paying very good attention, but he has a lot more peaches than he needs. How much more does he have? After Jesse makes his pie, how many pounds of peaches will be left over?
To figure this out, you will need to understand how to subtract fractions and mixed numbers. Pay close attention because this lesson will cover all that you need to know. You will see this problem again at the end of the lesson and you will be ready to solve it!

Teaching Time
I. Subtract Fractions and Mixed Numbers
In real life, we use fractions all the time. Let's say you are cutting a piece of wood that is \begin{align*}3 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*} feet long and you need to cut \begin{align*}\frac{1}{2}\end{align*} foot off of the piece of wood. What do you need to do to figure out how much wood you have left, after you make the cut? You guessed it. Subtraction is the key. Subtracting fractions and mixed numbers is a skill that you will use all the time.
How do we subtract fractions and mixed numbers?
If you know how to add fractions, then you already know how to subtract them. The key is to make sure that the fractions that you are subtracting have the same denominator. If the fractions have the same denominator, then subtract the numerators just like you subtract whole numbers and keep the denominator the same in your answer.
Notice that the denominators are the same, so we can simply subtract the numerators.
\begin{align*}6 - 2 = 4\end{align*}
Our answer is \begin{align*}\frac{4}{9}\end{align*}.
If the denominators are not the same, make sure to find the lowest or least common denominator first and then do your subtracting. Think about the first example with sawing wood. If you want to subtract \begin{align*}\frac{1}{2}\end{align*} foot from a piece of wood that is \begin{align*}3 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*} feet long, you have to find a common denominator first.
We can choose 4 as the least common denominator and rename each fraction in terms of fourths. To do this, we create equivalent fractions. If you use the equivalent fraction \begin{align*}\frac{2}{4}\end{align*} for \begin{align*}\frac{1}{2}\end{align*}, then you have the same denominator as the fraction in \begin{align*}3 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*}.
\begin{align*}3 \frac{3}{4}-\frac{2}{4} = 3 \frac{1}{4}\end{align*}
This example actually uses a mixed number and a fraction. We can also subtract two mixed numbers. We do this in the same way. We subtract the fractions and then subtract the whole numbers.
\begin{align*}4 \frac{5}{6}-1 \frac{4}{6}\end{align*}
First, we subtract the fraction parts. These fractions have the same denominator, so we can simply subtract the numerators.
\begin{align*}5 - 4 = 1\end{align*} the fraction here is \begin{align*}\frac{1}{6}\end{align*}
Next, we subtract the whole numbers.
\begin{align*}4 - 1\end{align*}
Our final answer is \begin{align*}3 \frac{1}{6}\end{align*}.
Sometimes, when you subtract mixed numbers, you will have to do an extra step. Think about this example.
Imagine you are cutting, or subtracting, \begin{align*}1 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*} feet of wood from a piece of wood that is \begin{align*}3 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*} feet long. Your subtraction problem looks like this: \begin{align*}3 \frac{1}{2} - 1 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*}.
After you find a common denominator, your subtraction problem now looks like this.
\begin{align*}3 \frac{2}{4} - 1 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*}
Take a deep breath and don't panic! This is where you use your expertise at converting mixed numbers to improper fractions. After you have a common denominator for the fractions, multiply the whole number of the mixed number by the denominator of the fraction. Add this product to the numerator of the fraction.
\begin{align*}3 \frac{2}{4} &= \frac{(3 \times 4)+2}{4}=\frac{14}{4}\\ 1 \frac{3}{4} &= \frac{(4 \times 1)+3}{4}=\frac{7}{4}\end{align*}
Your new subtraction problem for the example looks like this.
\begin{align*}\frac{14}{4} -\frac{7}{4}\end{align*}
Now you simply subtract the numerators and you get \begin{align*}\frac{7}{4}\end{align*}. Now you convert this back into a mixed number. Do you remember how to do this?
Don't forget to rewrite the difference as a mixed number and keep the fraction in lowest terms.
Here are the steps for subtracting mixed numbers.
Subtracting Mixed Numbers:
- Make sure the fractions have a common denominator.
- If the fraction to the left of the minus sign is smaller than the fraction to the right of the minus sign – convert both mixed numbers into improper fractions
- Subtract the improper fractions
- Rewrite the difference as a mixed number.
Take a few minutes to write these steps down in your notebooks.
3G. Lesson Exercises
Subtract the following fractions and mixed numbers. Be sure that your answer is in lowest terms.
- \begin{align*}\frac{10}{12}-\frac{6}{12}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\frac{6}{7}-\frac{3}{4}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}4 \frac{1}{4}-\frac{3}{4}\end{align*}
Take a few minutes to check your answers with a partner. Is your work accurate?
II. Estimate Differences of Fractions and Mixed Numbers
Estimation is a method for finding an approximate solution to a problem. For example, \begin{align*}52 - 21\end{align*} is exactly 31. We can estimate the difference by rounding to the tens place and subtracting \begin{align*}50 - 20\end{align*}. Then we can say that \begin{align*}52 - 21\end{align*} is "about 30."
To approximate the values of fractions, we compare the fractions in relation to three benchmarks, 0, \begin{align*}\frac{1}{2}\end{align*} and 1. Is the fraction closer to 0, \begin{align*}\frac{1}{2}\end{align*} or 1? If it's closer to 1, we say that the value of the fraction is "about 1."
We can use these approximate values of fractions to estimate the differences of fractions and mixed numbers.
First, we approximate the value of each fraction or mixed number using the benchmarks 0, \begin{align*}\frac{1}{2}\end{align*} and 1.
Next, we find the difference between the approximate values.
Even when you are asked to find an exact answer, estimation is a useful way to get an idea of a reasonable solution to a problem. Once you have finished solving for an exact answer of a problem, you can check your answer against the estimate. Refer back to the following steps if necessary.
Estimate the difference between \begin{align*}\frac{7}{8}-\frac{4}{9}\end{align*}
First, we need to rewrite each fraction in terms of its benchmark. Seven-eighths is almost one, so we can say that the best benchmark is 1. Four - ninths is a little less than one-half, so we can use one-half as the benchmark.
Next, to find the best estimate, we subtract the benchmarks.
\begin{align*}1 - \frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\end{align*}
Our estimate is one-half.
We can also estimate differences of mixed numbers.
Estimate the difference between \begin{align*}5 \frac{14}{16}-5 \frac{1}{16}\end{align*}
First, we need to rewrite each of these in terms of a benchmark. Now we use the whole numbers of 5 and 6 as our starting points. Five and fourteen-sixteenths is close to 6. We use 6 as our benchmark for the first mixed number.
Five and one-sixteenth is closest to five. We use 5 as our second benchmark.
Now we subtract the benchmarks to find an accurate estimate.
\begin{align*}6 - 5 = 1\end{align*}
Our estimate is 1.
3H. Lesson Exercises
Use benchmarks to estimate the differences.
- \begin{align*}6 \frac{5}{6}-\frac{1}{10}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\frac{8}{9}-\frac{3}{7}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}4 \frac{4}{5}-1 \frac{3}{5}\end{align*}
Take a few minutes to check your work with a partner.
III. Identify and Apply the Inverse Property of Addition in Fraction Operations, using Numerical and Variable Expressions
Think back to the last lesson where Teri was making the blueberry pie. Imagine that the recipe called for \begin{align*}3 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*} cups of blueberries. You looked in the refrigerator and you find \begin{align*}1 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*} cups of blueberries. You needed to go to the store to buy the rest of the blueberries you need for the recipe.
Identify the information that you know and the information that you don't know. You know: the amount of blueberries required by the recipe \begin{align*}= 3 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*} cups; the amount of blueberries in your refrigerator \begin{align*}= 1 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*} cups. You don't know the amount of blueberries you need to buy at the store. Let's call that \begin{align*}x\end{align*}, since it's an unknown. If we write an equation to model the relationship between these amounts, it looks like this.
blueberries in refrigerator + blueberries you buy at the store = blueberries required for the pie recipe
When you insert the values (numerical and unknown) into the equation, it looks like this.
\begin{align*}1 \frac{1}{2} + x = 3 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*}
This is how we can write an equation to solve a real-world problem.
How do we solve this equation and figure out the value of the variable?
We can use the Inverse Property of Addition to help us in solving equations.
The Inverse Property of Addition states that the sum of a number and its opposite are equal to 0. Let's test it out.
\begin{align*}5 + (-5) = 0\end{align*}
Even if you can't remember how to work with negative numbers, you can still think this through and it will make sense. We have five and we take away five. Well, that answer is 0.
What does this have to do with solving equations?
To solve an equation, we need to get the variable by itself on one side of the equals. In the example above, the \begin{align*}x\end{align*} is on one side with one and one-half. We need to move one and one-half to the other side of the equals. We can do this by using the Inverse Property of Addition. To get the \begin{align*}x\end{align*} alone, we need to have zero on the same side of the equation as the \begin{align*}x\end{align*}. Here is how we use the Inverse Property of Addition.
\begin{align*}1 \ \frac{1}{2} + x &= 3 \ \frac{3}{4}\\ \left(-1 \ \frac{1}{2}\right)+1 \ \frac{1}{2} + x &= 3 \ \frac{3}{4}-1 \frac{1}{2}\\ 0+x &= 3 \ \frac{3}{4}-1 \ \frac{1}{2}\\ x &= 3 \ \frac{3}{4}-1 \ \frac{1}{2}\end{align*}
Now we can simply subtract the mixed numbers. First, we need to rename each fraction in terms of fourths. Three and three-fourths is all set. We convert one and one-half to one and two-fourths and subtract.
Our answer is \begin{align*}2 \frac{1}{4}\end{align*}.
3I. Lesson Exercises
Solve each equation using the Inverse Property of Addition. Be sure that your answer is in simplest form.
- \begin{align*}\frac{1}{6}+x=\frac{5}{6}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\frac{4}{5}+ y=2 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*}
Take a few minutes to check your answers with a partner. Question 2 had a lot of steps to it. Did you get all of them? Is your answer in simplest form?
IV. Model and Solve Real-World Problems Using Simple Equations Involving Sums and Differences of Fractions or Mixed Numbers
Have you begun to realize how useful fractions can be in everyday life? Jorge drinks \begin{align*}\frac{2}{3}\end{align*} of a glass of lemonade. Ursula and Andy will meet in \begin{align*}\frac{1}{4}\end{align*} of an hour.
In this section, we'll look at some real-world problems which involve adding and subtracting fractions. When solving real-world problems, it's important to first define terms. What information does the problem give us? What information does the problem ask us to find out? Once we know where we are and where we want to go, we can figure out how to get there.
Benito works in a bakery and has baked the world's longest loaf of cinnamon bread. His loaf measures \begin{align*}11 \frac{5}{8}\end{align*} feet. He cuts a piece that measures \begin{align*}1 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*} feet long, and gives it to his friend Pamela. He then cuts another piece \begin{align*}2 \frac{2}{3}\end{align*} feet long for his friend Serena. How much bread does he have left?
Let's take careful inventory of the information that the problem gives us. We know that the whole loaf of bread is \begin{align*}11 \frac{5}{8}\end{align*} feet long. Pamela gets a piece \begin{align*}1 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*} feet long, that is her piece and Serena gets a piece \begin{align*}2 \frac{2}{3}\end{align*} feet long. This is the given information.
What do we want to find out? We want to know the length of the bread after he cuts Pamela and Serena's pieces (loaf after cutting \begin{align*}= x\end{align*}). Let's write an equation to show the relationship between the values:
Whole loaf – Pamela's piece – Serena's piece = loaf after cutting
When we substitute the given values, we have the following equation.
\begin{align*}11 \frac{5}{8} - 1 \frac{1}{2}-2 \frac{2}{3} = x\end{align*}
Now, we simply solve from left to right. First, find a common denominator between the fractions in \begin{align*}11 \frac{5}{8}\end{align*} and \begin{align*}1 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*}. Let's use 8, so we solve \begin{align*}11 \frac{5}{8}-1 \frac{4}{8} = 10 \frac{1}{8}\end{align*}.
Next, we can simplify the problem.
\begin{align*}10 \frac{1}{8} - 2 \frac{2}{3} = x\end{align*}
The lowest common denominator for the fractions is going to be 24. We simplify the problem further.
\begin{align*}10 \frac{3}{24} - 2 \frac{16}{24} = x\end{align*}
I can already see that I will have to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions. Simplify again.
\begin{align*}\frac{243}{24}-\frac{64}{24} &= x\\ x &= \frac{179}{24}\end{align*}
Next, we just convert the answer to a mixed number and write in simplest terms.
Solution: \begin{align*}7 \frac{11}{24}\end{align*} feet or about \begin{align*}7 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*} feet
Now let's go back to the introduction problem and help Jesse with his peach problem.
Real Life Example Completed
Plenty of Peaches
Here is the original problem once again. Read it and underline any important information.
Jesse has decided to make peach pie for the bake sale. His recipe calls for \begin{align*}2 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*} pounds of peaches. Jesse's older brother Jeff drives him to the farmer's market to pick up his peaches. When Jesse gets there, he is amazed at how fast paced the market is. There are several people working behind the counter and they seem to be adding up all of the figures in their heads. Jesse is amazed. He loves math but he can't even imagine adding up so many numbers in his head at one time.
Jesse is fascinated. So much so that he loses his focus and puts many, many peaches in his cloth bag. When the girl weighs it, Jesse watches her do the math in her head. She tells Jesse how much he owes and he pays her. Then she hands Jesse back the bag.
"How many pounds is this?" Jesse asks.
"You bought \begin{align*}6 \frac{1}{4}\end{align*} pounds of peaches," She says focusing on another customer.
Jesse is surprised. He knows that he wasn't paying very good attention, but he has a lot more peaches than he needs. How much does he have? After Jesse makes his pie, how many pounds of peaches will be left over?
To solve this problem, we will need to subtract the number of pounds that Jesse needs for his recipe from the number of pounds that he purchases.
\begin{align*}6 \frac{1}{4}-2 \frac{1}{2}\end{align*}
These fractions have different denominators, so we need to rename them using a common denominator. The lowest common denominator here is 4.
\begin{align*}6 \frac{1}{4}\end{align*} is all set.
\begin{align*}2 \frac{1}{2}=2 \frac{2}{4}\end{align*}
We can rewrite the problem.
\begin{align*}6 \frac{1}{4}-2 \frac{2}{4}\end{align*}
Next, we have to convert these to improper fractions because we can't subtract two-fourths from one-fourth.
To write it in simplest form, we convert this improper fraction to a mixed number.
Our answer is \begin{align*}3 \frac{3}{4}\end{align*} pounds of peaches left over.
Here are the vocabulary words that are found in this lesson.
- Lowest Common Denominator
- when two fractions have different denominators, we use the lowest common denominator to rename each fraction in terms of that common number. The lowest common denominator is also a least common multiple of the denominators.
- Equivalent Fractions
- equal fractions
- Improper Fractions
- when the numerator of a fraction is larger than the denominator
- Estimation
- finding an approximate answer
- Inverse Property of Addition
- when you add the inverse of a number, the answer is zero.

Comcast SportsNet Houston Debacle Keeping Buzz-Worthy Rockets from Getting Buzz
What if the Rockets won in a forest and no one was there to see it? These are the kinds of philosophical questions many fans must ask themselves this year because the vast majority don't have access to games on TV thanks to an apparent impasse between Comcast SportsNet Houston, the official home of the Rockets and Astros, and major cable and satellite providers without the word Comcast in their names.
The problem over how much carriers should pay per subscriber is apparently at the heart of the matter. More simply put: Money is the root of all blackouts and fans are caught in the crosshairs.
It's unfortunate that the sides involved in this mess, which includes everyone from the team to the providers to CSN Houston, chose this particular year to make it happen. This time last year, the NBA hadn't even started playing games yet and the Rockets were still mired in mediocrity when the season did start. Now they have an almost entirely new team that is shockingly young and, dare I say it, exciting to watch...and still no TV deals.
But the lack of TV goes well beyond just preventing fans from watching. Routinely, I have heard sports radio hosts say they weren't able to see road games because they don't have Comcast, like more than half of the Houston area. Since the fans for the most part are unable to watch as well and the Texans are 11-1, there is very little buzz about a team that really deserves it.

I said last year that the Rockets were a very easy team to root for. They worked hard, played unselfish basketball and won more than not despite their athletic and talent deficiencies. This year, the talent level has improved (if not dramatically) and they still play hard, unselfish basketball. They also have fun doing it with a cast of extremely young characters leading the charge. Ostensibly, this youth movement means we'll have at least a handful of these core players around for quite some time and now is when we get to see them grow...if we could actually, you know, see them.
Currently, the Rockets are 9-8, coming off a stunning, come-from-behind win against the Lakers and heading into a stretch of three games against division and interstate rivals San Antonio and Dallas. There is every reason to believe, barring major injury, that they will be better, maybe substantially so, in January and February than they are in December. They might even challenge for a playoff spot.
Off the court, things are improving for the team as well. Season ticket sales are reportedly up 25 percent and the NBA All Star game will be in Houston this February. Routinely, there are Texans players in the stands -- good athletes like watching other good athletes. All that and yet, it's as if they are locked out for many Houstonians thanks to a fight over money.
It's ironic that perhaps the only way fans will get to see one or more of the Rockets' star players this year is if they end up on the Western Conference All Star team. Good thing it's on TNT.

Beyonce and sister all smiles in Instagram pic following infamous elevator fight
- From: News Corp Australia
- May 19, 2014
IN THE wake of the infamous "elevator-gate" incident, Beyonce is showing nothing but big love for little sister Solange. To prove all is well in the Knowles family, the superstar posted a photo of the siblings looking happy and relaxed in New Orleans.
"New Orleans May17th 2014," Beyonce wrote via Instagram.
As previously reported by Us Magazine, Solange has been back in New Orleans where she has been spending time with music exec boyfriend Alan Ferguson (she also owns a home there).
The show of sisterly love comes in the wake of a statement released by Beyonce, Solange and Jay Z, who all said the elevator dust-up was just part and parcel of being a family.
"As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it," the trio told the Associated Press in an exclusive statement.
"Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public," the statement continued. "They both have apologised to each other and we have moved forward as a united family."
Meanwhile, Beyonce and Jay Z are headed to the Kimye wedding, but have refused requests to for them to be filmed as part of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

I have found three different birthstones for June... the pearl, alexandrite and moonstone. Does anyone know why June has 3 and other months only have one? Trying to figure out which one to use as Noah's stone.....
June's birthstone?
and Oragami owl has a pinkish looking one listed but doesnt say what it is.
I've seen other months with multiples as well. I have Feb as amethyst (DD), March as aquamarine (me) and July as Ruby (DH) and in this same set June is pearl. So when I get around to getting my ring updated, I will use pearl. I would say go with whatever "set" you've gone with before since there are lots of different interpretations.
I dont really have a set... I have a ruby ring because I hated not wearing a ring with DS so we bought a ruby one. I was searching and even the major jewelry stores don't agree. Kays has alexandrite and pearl. (and the alexandrite is VERY pretty.. a dark blue/purpley type color.. .and Zales lists Smokey quartz. SIGH.
I just ordered a new gem for my mom's grandchild necklace to add Marshall. I was given the choice of pearl or alexandrite. I went with alexandrite because my nephew is June too and so I wanted it to match the other gem already on there. The other two gems, January and February, are also translucent so I thought Pearl would look weird.
Lucky u guys, I got November and may, topaz and emerald. Green and gold, works well for dh, a die hard packer fan. I'd go with what looks good
The one and only reason I'm glad Oliver held out to July 1!!! I love rubies!!! Now my kids are emerald, sapphire and ruby. I'm working on finding the ring I want. I found one that is exactly the same as my wedding band only with the birthstones instead of diamonds. But for some reason, it's silver and I want it in white gold. I can't find anyone who makes it in gold!
Yep, I have a June birthday and was always confused LOL.

Eshe is a Kiwi brand of decks and skater clothing.
Four of these posters are from 2010.
The bottom four were just released this week.
I'm only posting the old ones because of the recent Muhammad kerfuffle.
Posters were done in-house.
They appear to be heavily influenced by the Garbage Pail Kids cards.
I, for one, am outraged at the weak, hackneyed creativity.
"Scientolo G" looks a tad like Tom Cruise (not the "Maverick" bling).
Gandhi getting a hummer. This image, in particular, has upset a couple of commenters on Ads of the World.

Yeah, I was interpreting the original post as being like my niece who I have never seen eat anything except spaghetti-ohs and white bread. I don't think she has ever eaten anything else. I just don't understand how that happens (well obviously, it's parenting), but more than that, why doesn't it clear up on its own?
Female, 5'3", 50, Max squat: 202.5lbs. Max deadlift: 225 x 3.
I have a very sensitive palate and a crazy sensitive sense of smell. I can become nauseated and get a blistering headache from smell that other people barely register. It's not because I'm a "crybaby". Just because you don't experience something yourself, it doesn't mean its not real.
Using low lectin/nightshade free primal to control autoimmune arthritis. (And lost 50 lbs along the way )
Is my aversion to the mouthfeel of vegetables related? Probably. I can't handle many flavors and textures, and I kind of resent being told to grow up and start liking things that frankly freak my senses out. I think some things are just objectively horrible and sometimes I would rather eat straight-up dirt. But no one has a gun to my head, forcing me to enjoy liver. So I just eat what works for me and shrug it off.

You have done a freakin' fantastic job of developing coping skills with the food challenges yourself!!
I actually wondered myself if the OP has this issue. If he writes back, I just may suggest he be evaluated by an OT. For these kinds of neurological issues, therapy is sooooo worth it!
It's never been anything that severely affects my ability to live life, I just have to do things a little differently sometimes. And I get a little sick of hearing things like "WELL YOU WOULDN'T GET BLISTERS ON YOUR FEET IF YOU WORE SOCKS!!!"

Level 2 Steakhouse: Branson, Missouri is now a food town
There are 12 comments on the Washington Times story from Nov 2, 2012, titled Level 2 Steakhouse: Branson, Missouri is now a food town. In it, Washington Times reports that:
BRANSON , Mo With over 15 years of traveling back to Missourri for family, Branson has never been on the top of my "foodie" list.
Join the discussion below, or Read more at Washington Times.
#1 Nov 4, 2012
I have not ate at this steak house but I plan on trying it soon. Branson lacks in anything decent for food unless you enjoy chain restaurants. There are only a handful of places I would eat at. It sure would be nice if someone would open a deli.
#2 Nov 4, 2012
I think Cantina Laredo at the landing is fabulous. Famous Dave's is pretty good too. I've even got some good cannelloni at Rocky's before. And don't forget Danna's.
If you want a deli, try Panera.
Of course you can always drive to Springfield and eat at some chain restaurants there. Or just stay home and pop a pot pie in the microwave like you usually do.

Pillow Talk Gal, you are a great writer, I enjoy your posts.
Please do some more writing. Thank You, pretty one.
I eat some food everytime I go down visit Branson-
Branson is definitely becoming a FOOD TOWN.
We got one Rest-a-Runt here in Seymour, which is an Amish town with plenty of horses & buggies.
They call it Diesel & Eats Truck Stop Cafe owned by Johnny Orbison.
It's a nice clean place too, they got clean bathrooms there all the time.
They even got condom machines in the women's bathrooms too!
This makes all the girls happy so they don't get knocked up.
If they don't leak! You know,...... bust a hole.
If you ever cum from Elmhurst, Illinois to Seymour,Mo, be sure to stop and eat a bite @ Johnny Orbison's Diesel & Eats Rest-a-Runt Cafe & Truck stop.
It's a cool place. They'd luv you too, just like I do.
Thanks Hon & bye bye 4 now.
See Ya' Later alligator

Generations in Waukesha shifting focus to pasta
Generations at Five Points, 294 W. Main St. in Waukesha, is making the transition from a strictly small-plates format to mainly pastas and a few other entrees.

A $459.92 Case Study & Journey To PPV Success with 50onRed
Hey, I'm about to attempt to add at least 20-50% ROI on a PPV (Pay Per View) advertising campaign using the company 50 on Red (50onred.com). I pissed away a couple of bucks already trying some random stuff that hasn't panned out yet – but still have a balance of $459.92. As I said, my goal is to get at least a 20% ROI on this money, then reinvest, and try to raise that ROI as much as possible.
I'm using a couple of clickbank products on gambling methods as my 'products'.
My setup is simple. Doing 'category' targeting for 50onred in the "games/gambling" section.
My lander is just a clickable image that leads to an opt-in page. After the opt-in page, I have an offer-wall.
Above you can see an image of the lander. It's super shitty, but the goal was just to see if traffic was even clicking – or if it's simply bot traffic.
A bunch of these networks have been accused of running mass amounts of bot traffic – which is fraudulent to say the least.
I'm going to need to set up some better IP tracking and whatnot to see if there is repeat. For now, I'll just check my traffic logs. That'll tell me if there are a ton of repeat IP's. From there, I can see if they're bots using some Google sleuthing skills I picked up from my SEO days.
For my squeeze page after they click through that lander page, I'm just using ClickFunnels. I really hate using these funnel services, but because I just had spine surgery, and have been in tons of pain, and very sick – I don't have the mental capacity to continue building everything myself from scratch. So, for ease of use – I'm using ClickFunnels to build my squeeze page and offer wall / thank you page.
I'm using MailChimp as my autoresponder because ClickFunnels makes it damn near impossible to link up with my regular (and far superior) autoresponder Global NPN.
Here's a shot of my squeeze page:
Keep in mind, you can click any of the images in this post to see a larger / more readable version.
As you can see, I'm keeping the copy fairly simple and to the point. Anyone can write copy like this, didn't want to over-complicate or make this into something that isn't something that anyone could do.
Once they opt-in on this squeeze page the visitor is taken to an offer wall that looks (at the moment) something like this:
Basically the idea is – the user can click which ever offer they want to (or possibly more than one) which will increase your earnings substantially according to a bunch of stuff I've been reading online (in forums and Q&A sections for PPV specific traffic).
There are also some pixels installed on this page (conversion pixel and cookies to ensure I actually get paid on these offers).
At the end of this, hopefully they results in a sale – but they absolutely result in an opt-in. I'm building a list in every niche that I do PPV advertising with – because then you can hit them up again and again, and sell them stuff more than once. It simply makes more sense and is something I really should've done in the past during my SEO days.
I will simply plug in the email autoresponder series' that are provided by the ClickBank vendors – making this all really easy, and virtually autopilot after the setup stage.
Those followups, I will simply queue one after the other, emailing daily ala: Ben Settle style.
If they unsubscribe, I don't really care. I'm not trying to build a list of adoring fans – I'm concerned only with profit for this venture. Relentless email followup has proven time and time again to get the sale.
Some initial notes:
After running $11.20 in traffic today to this offer (as structured above) the numbers are not great – but they are a starting point.
The $11.20 has resulted in 291 impressions of the lander page for an average (cost per thousand impressions) of $38.476CPM (we don't round – because specifics are what make more money in marketing).
This is an average of $0.038CPV (Cost Per View / Impression).
So, not too shabby – approximately 4 cents per view. We can work with that.
Of those 291 impressions, next we need to find out exactly how many actually clicked the lander image and went on to the squeeze page. Thankfully ClickFunnels makes that really easy.
Of the 291 impressions, only 4 people clicked through to the squeeze page (that sucks).
4 / 291 = 0.013745704467354 or 1.37% CTR.
We need this number to be at LEAST 10% before we can consider it even 'acceptable'.
Good would be 30-40%. Keep in mind – I've heard PPV is actually classically horrible for CTR's and conversions rates.
With the PPV traffic I've ran for clients, it's actually been way better than what others claim as average for PPV / CPV traffic. So, we'll try to get it to those levels. Fuck the norm.
Now then, of those 4 people who clicked through to the squeeze page – only 1 opted in.
1 / 4 = 0.25 or 25% Opt In Rate.
That's actually not too bad, but could definitely be better. Since this is our baseline – I'd like to shoot for about 50%.
The next number we need to know is our average amount earned per sale.
For the main ClickBank product we're promoting, that would be $336.70CPA (cost per acquisition).
An average sales percentage is anywhere from 2 – 10%, we'll go for the low end of 2% to be conservative and to make sure the numbers work out in our favor.
So let's boil this all down, shall we?
(I will be rounding numbers – to be conservative – though I highly suggest you use EXACT numbers if you're trying to copy this. Accuracy is key. I'm more of a conservative type of guy – hence the pessimistic, conservative rounding of numbers)
$0.04 / view
So that would be 1.37 clicks / 100 views.
100 views will cost $0.40
25% of those views will become an opt-in
1.37 / 4 ( or 1.37 x .25) = 0.3425
1 / 0.3425 = 2.9197 units of 100 views to get one full opt-in.
2.9197 x $0.40 (cost per unit of 100 views) = $1.17 / opt-in
If we assume a 2% conversion to sale percentage, that means we need 50 opt-ins to get one sale.
50 x $1.17 = $58.50 COST PER SALE
$336.70 / $58.50 = 5.756 or 575.6% ROI
So basically, this campaign SHOULD be highly successful.
It took 10 minutes to setup (while watching Netflix).
The truly disgusting part is that we can drastically improve a bunch of the numbers in this campaign with very little effort.
The more we improve those numbers, the better profits we'll see.
..and that kids, is how you (theoretically) set up a successful PPV affiliate campaign. (Let's see if it pans out how it should)
If you sign up for 50onRed through my affiliate link – you will receive a free $50 bonus when you deposit your initial $500.
(Disclaimer: I too, will receive a bonus $50 as my payment for referring someone to their network)
I wouldn't suggest you simply copy this campaign, or you'll drive up prices – and neither of us will make any money.
Find a different niche, a different product, and structure your campaign in a similar styling – and we'll both make easy-peasy money.
Your pal,

Dirtbags get a much-needed sweep
Honolulu – Long Beach State did what it needed to do this weekend and hadn't done all season – sweep a series.
Nick Sabo and Ryan Millison combined on a three-hitter, and the Dirtbags turned two walks in the eighth into two runs for a 3-1 win Sunday against the Rainbows to complete a sweep, secure their third place status in the Big West and enhance their profile for a NCAA bid.
The sweep improved the team's record to 26-23 and 12-6 in the Big West – two games ahead of fourth place UC Riverside (22-24, 10-8), four games ahead of Fullerton (25-22, 8-10) and 4 1/2 on UC Santa Barbara (29-15, 9-12).
The Dirtbags (26-23, 12-6) are in third, three games behind UC Irvine (34-16, 15-3) and 2 1/2 behind Cal Poly (41-10, 16-5).
The Dirtbags visit Riverside this weekend – after a Tuesday date with San Diego at Blair Field – and host UC Irvine in the season finale.
On Sunday, Long Beach took a 1-0 lead in the fifth on back-to-back doubles by Cameron Pongs and Johnny Bekakis. Hawaii tied it in the seventh when Sabo walked the lead off hitter and the run came around on the only hit Millison allowed.
In the eighth, scored two runs on two walks, a sacrifice, Garrett Hampson's fly ball and a wild pitch.
The Dirtbags won the first game of the series, 3-1, behind a superb complete-game five-hitter by Andrew Rohrbach, who improved his season record to 6-1. He walked just two and struck out nine.
The teams were tied 1-1 heading into the ninth when Hawaii wildness gifted two runs. Two walks, an Ino Patron bunt single and two RBI walks made it 3-1.
On Saturday, second baseman Colton Vaughn was 4-for-5 with two runs scored and four RBI in a 11-5 Long Beach win. Hampson and Patron each had three hits.
Vaughn doubled home two runs in the second and the Dirtbags dropped seven runs in the fifth on seven hits and two sacrifice fly balls. Hawaii KO'd Josh Frye with a five-run sixth, but Ty Provencher got the last out of the inning and shutout the home team the rest of the way, allowing just two hits.
While the Dirtbags are at UC Riverside next weekend, UC Irvine will be hosting Fullerton and Cal Poly will be playing its final league series at Northridge.

Looks like they are now saying that the earnings call will be the morning of April 16th.
last year they were released on April 10th....they have until April 15th to get the 10k filed. i think we might get a surprise upside, based on how the share's have been so strong. There is always someone in the know that is benefitting. I think they will beat estimates by two pennies for the fourth quarter ( partially due to the reduction in shares because of the stock buyback) and by $3 million on the top line. Estimates are 5 cents eps on sales of $507 million
They usually announce 8:30 pm eastern time
Sentiment: Strong Buy
