I've created a single-page app. All deep links are in the form of mysite.com/#!/entry_title. This allows Google (and Facebook) to check an alternate URL for the content of that page.
I've setup a server-side check to determine if Google or Facebook is looking for the HTML snapshot of this page. If so, it sends a different header containing the necessary Facebook og meta tags.
Here's the problem. If I paste one of my URLs (mysite.com/#!/entry_title) into my status box the URL that gets displayed is the HTML snapshot URL (mysite.com/?_escaped_fragment_/entry_title).
The og:url meta tag on the HTML snapshot page is set to mysite.com/#!/entry_title.
How can I make the Sharer display the mysite.com/#!/entry_title version of the URL instead of the HTML snapshot version?
Thanks in advance!

OK! Think, 'Ball & Dummy Drill'.
Add a few snap caps to the live ammo mix. When you drop the hammer on the snap cap you should quickly see what you're doing wrong. Other than this: Remember what I said about, first, controlling the backstap BEFORE you attempt to concentrate on the front sight.
I've been training young and old to shoot for many years. I'll tell you for a fact: Most people don't really have a problem with watching the front sight. They will - and do - watch the front sight. Instead, they have a larger problem with their grip, and with controlling the pistol's backstrap.
(Pulling a pistol's trigger correctly isn't that tough to learn!)
10 or 15 minutes practice, twice a day, with snap caps can work wonders for your pistol shooting skills. Even after a lifetime of pistol shooting I still begin each range session with a magazine full of snap caps whenever I can. (Clears the mind and connects the brain with the hand!)
Gentlemen I think what we have here is a failure to communicate !!
The one thing that I've noticed over the years from watching people who instruct and those being instructed as well as being on both ends of it is that while advanced instructors are good the truly great instructors keep in touch with the basics of whatever is being taught .
Often a problem is a simple loss of a basic principal of any skill .
G21's post was just that one designed to help a novice build a solid foundation of skills from which they can improve upon with perhaps the advanced skills a person with the credentials of Mr. Perroni may have .
Every skill has a starting place just as a building has a foundation without that solid foundation few will ever be able to reach or comprehend the finer more difficult advanced levels .
Mr. Perroni I think in years of working with those that have their basics down and are at or on the cusp of already being advanced shooters you have become accustom to thinking and speaking at the advanced levels and have forgotten how to teach at the most basic of levels .
After all the 6 o clock hold is the very first one a new shooter should master .
You ask me to answer:
Waiting to hear from you, fella. [/QUOTE]
The when I do...
Don't you worry about me. I ain't nobody; but, someone you chose to insult on the internet; and, common sense, would indicate that's the way we should keep it. In the future, if you stay away from my posts in the same way I've been staying away from yours, well then, we'll get along fine.
I have no problem with anyone questioning my teaching methods.....
I havent heard your teaching points just your lame attempt at insulting me..
SOOOOO...Again I will make you an offer or for that matter any of your students. If I can not make them a better shooter at the end of one day of training. They do not have to pay for the course.
I am not bashing you I just don't agree with everything you post.
OK, fine, are you also the guy who trained that other famous government agent .... What's his name, again, Lee Paige? (Hard to believe that public tax dollars actually paid for that kind of crappy government firearms training, isn't it!) By the way, there isn't a certified NRA firearms instructor on the planet who would have made the series of dangerous and stupid mistakes that DEA agent made with a gun - Not one!
Well let me help you out on this one I was told not only was he a former Tampa Bay BucK'S Football Player he was an NRA Instructor and He was not a FED (DEA) just on the task force.
ANY human can make a mistake even if they have a card in thier pocket that says NRA Instructor or not.
First, no two pistols will shoot quite the same way. So, before you make an irrevocable statement on, 'exactly' where the sights should be, the first thing you need to know is the gun you're using. (They don't all shoot to the same point-of-aim!)
Point of AIM is point of IMPACT on any firearm.
I'd like to know: Where are you getting that sight picture spiel from anyway? Forgive me for being so blunt; but, it's pure corn!
James Yeager, Iggy Piazza Front Sight, Jim Corillo, Masad Ayoob, Pat Goodale, John Farnham etc.etc.
If you really were an expert pistol instructor you'd already know that it takes well developed proprioceptive reflexes, fast hands, and a well conditioned recoil response in order to SETTLE THE FRONT SIGHT INTO THE REAR NOTCH before you take any rapid fire follow-up shot. (You know what I'm talking about .... the shots that better than 90% of pistol shooters always throw away!)
I let the Front Sight dictate the speed or rate of fire.
I would love for you to respond so we can discuss our diffrent view points.
I tell my students to take as much training as they can from as many instructors as they can. They need to put as many tools in thier tactical tool box as they can.
Baskin Robins has 31 flavors for a reason.
Offer still stand for the free training.....Maybe you can teach me a thing or two.....

(This could probably go into Drunken Ramblings...)
Well, perhaps not total fail, but the end result wasn't what I had hoped for.
My wife (I got a good one. Yes she has a sister, but I wouldn't wish her on my worst enemy) bought me one of Midwest Supplies MLT conversions, probably so I'd stop whining about being restricted to extract brewing. Today was it's inaugural voyage, figured I'd start simple and try my hand at BierMuncher's Centennial Blonde. A beautiful day to brew, to be sure... 65 degrees and not a cloud in the sky.
I read, re-read and printed Bobby_M's AG primer, had my BeerSmtih brewsheet on a clipboard, had hops premeasured and bagged, Irish Moss laid out, the carboy was sanitized, backup tank of propane at the ready. I even decided to try out Jamil's secret weapon of tying the little goat statue from a Ayinger's Celebrator bottle onto my MLT. Fat lot of good that did me.
Dumped the required amount of water into the MLT, let it heat up and dumped the grain at 166F. The mash went well, only lost a couple degrees. Vorlaufed and drained the runnings into my kettle. Started the batch sparge and was just having a good ole time. Ended up with right at seven gallons in the kettle (I have a wide, fat kettle and tend to boil off more than normal). I was really digging the whole AG thing. Drew off a sample to measure my pre-boil gravity and started the boil.
Well, that's where the sinking feeling started. Dropped the hydrometer into the sample. BeerSmith said I should be around 1.034... "Hmm, that's odd, I'm at 1.022. WTF?" Checked the temp, nope, that's spot on 60F. Double checked the hydrometer, spun it, set it on a level table... 1.022.
Rather than start a "Where did I screw up?" thread, I'll tell you exactly where I screwed up... I was following my brewsheet which told me to sparge at 168F. Well, rather than taking into account that my grain was colder and that my water needed to be hotter to raise the entire mass to 168F, my stupid ass sparged with 168F water. Needless to say, my efficiency sucked...sucked to the point where I don't even want to calculate it as I'd probably just hang my head in shame. I suppose the bright spot in all of this is that I know what I did wrong and can correct it next time.
BierMuncher, sir, I apologize for butchering your recipe. Hopefully it will still be tasty, even at 2.9% ABV. And Bobby_M, thanks for the guidance, even if I was too thick to follow your directions more closely. I'll try harder next time.
Your starch-sugar conversion happens during the mash. The higher sparge temp is to stop the mash. A low sparge temp should allow a longer mash than scheduled and an increased OG.
I'd look at your grain bill, water volume, and the possibly of a poorly mixed sample for answers.
That sucks!
I think bobby_M says to use 185dF for sparge water in his all-grain primer!
What I do is heat my sparge water to 185df (I do the double sparge method) and by the time the first sparge is done, my sparge water is cooled off a bit (around 180df) and then I use that for my second sparge. I find that turning off the heat to the HLT when you are on your first sparge is perfect because I find that if I keep it at 185df and sparge the grain bed temperature will go past the magic 170df.
good luck on your next brew!

extraction calculator
grains in pounds(G) X 36(average points per gallon of grains) / batch size in gallons(g) = maximum efficiency(ME)
OG / ME = brewhouse efficiency
ive been brewing for a while now and i just brewed this same recipe last week- its fermenting as we speak. My efficiency has been hovering right around the high 70's and this recipe (wheat is a bitch) has me around low 60's. I ended up adding DME tyo get my sample up to the desired SG. My advice for you is to always mash longer with wheat and check for starch conversion using iodine. Either way my efficnecy always sucks (we have the same setup) with wheat. Oh and keep DME on hand so you can adjust if you come in low grav. Better luck next time
I brewer BM centinneal blonde also for my first AG and it went great for me. Sorry it didn't work out for you...it is a really great beer

Thinking About: Tripple Bock, Chocolate Stout, open to suggestions"Every beer is a good beer if I can taste the brewer's intent"
-Jim Koch
Is this guy serious??:
Once your grains were doughed in, did you check the temp of the grain bed?
Did you check at all during the mash and give the bed a stir to prevent cold spots?
Could be mash temp problems. Doing partial mashes and now doing my all grain this last weekend has made me not trust any of my thermometers
6g Better Bottle: Belgian Abt 12 Style
Kegged: English Barleywine, debaniel's Bananas Foster
Bottled: Dude's Fat Tire Clone, Belgian Pale Ale, Orange Blossom Mead
Pvtskippy - bloke, HTFU.
Not everything goes to plan. A few too many beers while brewing, premature ejectulation .. whatever.
many brewers have stuffed up (and as in your case, when rarely under pressure - though self pressure is almost certainly the worst kind).
Few brewers can say they have never done what you have done (a good old fashioned stuff up). Solutions though are real easy and you should not be embarassed to do them.
1. Keep going. As you said, a low alcohol beer aint all bad. Americans have been drinking them for years now.
2. The first AG should be a learning curve. Low OG - add sugar or malt extract to get to your required / perceived recommended OG. Struth, I do the same now after mobs of AG - gravity too low ?? .. add sugar / malt. I work on the principle that I'm the only bugger who will know.
3. Next time you stuff up and you know it - it aint no badge of honour to tell the world you are a goose. Man, we feel your pain at missing out on a fantastic first AG experience, but frankly, we don't need to know.
So now you are here with the big boys, no more whinging at your own stupidity. You stuffed up, put it down to experience and get back on that horse again. When you start brewing award winning beers, remember this advice and send me a few brews through the mail.

White Paper RARC-WP-14-013 - 9/22/2014
eCommerce Customer Registration Needs to Improve
Audit Report IT-AR-14-008 – 8/15/2014
Postal Service customers create accounts through USPS.com to purchase products and services from more than 40 eCommerce applications. But is the personal information of the 24 million Customer Registration users of those applications adequately protected?
Concerns With Carriers Delivering After Dark
Audit Report DR-AR-14-006 – 07/21/2014
From fiscal year (FY) 2011 to FY 2013, the percentage of city letter carriers returning after 5 p.m. nationwide grew from 25 to 38 percent. This raises concerns for carriers' safety and media reports suggest customers are not happy when their mail arrives after dark.
Government as a Postal Customer and Partner: International Round Table Recap
August 11, 2014 (RARC-IB-14-003-DR)
Package Services: Get Ready, Set, Grow!
July 21, 2014 (RARC-WP-14-015)
The package delivery market has been growing considerably. Between 2008 and 2013, the U.S. Postal Service experienced a more than 20 percent increase in package volume. The main reason is the growing popularity of e-commerce, particularly online shopping. American businesses and consumers spent more than $68 billion to ship packages domestically in 2013. E-commerce sales in the U.S. alone this year will top $430 billion; global e-commerce will exceed $1.5 trillion.
BSN Could Do More to Serve Largest Customers
Audit Report – MS-AR-14-005 – July 9, 2014
The Business Service Network (BSN), the U.S. Postal Service's one-stop shop for its largest customers' questions and concerns, could generate an additional $382 million in fiscal year 2014 by increasing customer outreach to all of the roughly 23,000 organizations the network serves.
If It Prints, It Ships: 3D Printing and the Postal Service
July 7, 2014 (RARC-WP-14-011)
3D printers build physical objects out of digital designs, usually by assembling powders, metals, plastics, and other materials layer-by-layer with tremendous precision. Because the digital designs can be endlessly tweaked and modified, 3D printing turns customers into creators and taps into the current trend of mass customization. The technology is starting to have a significant impact on the $10.5 trillion global manufacturing sector, and promises to democratize production and fundamentally change the supply chains of today.
Postal Service Should Act Now on Vehicle Replacement Plan
The U.S. Postal Service has one of the largest civilian vehicle fleets in the world, with more than 190,000 vans and other vehicles used to collect and deliver mail. But the fleet is aging and 142,000 long-life vehicles are near or past their expected service life. The Postal Service has taken a fix as fail approach to servicing its delivery fleet, even though it would sometimes be more efficient to replace vehicles when they break down. At the same time, the agency has an acquisition strategy but it lacks detail and has not been implemented due to financial constraints.
Protecting Mail Covers in Law Enforcement Investigations
Audit Report – HR-AR-14-001 – May 28, 2014
The outside of an envelope can be an effective tool in law enforcement investigations. In fiscal year 2013 alone, the Postal Inspection Service processed about 49,000 mail covers that were used to protect national security, locate fugitives, obtain evidence, or help locate stolen property.
But significant privacy issues govern the handling of mailpieces and the information on them. For that reason, the Postal Service and Postal Inspection Service must follow detailed procedures before allowing a mail cover.
Lack of Proper Scanning Caused Missed Savings Opportunities
Audit Report - NO-AR-14-004 - May 5, 2014
The U.S. Postal Service missed the opportunity to save more than $2 million annually in transportation-related costs in southern Florida because management did not have surface visibility (SV) system data it could rely on to identify unnecessary transportation and driver workhours, our recent audit found.
Semiannual Report to Congress
Benchmarking Postal Service Retirement Benefits
White Paper – HR-WP-14-002 - May 1, 2014
The U.S. Postal Service is a labor-intensive organization; it spent about $47 billion on compensation and benefits in FY 2013, including about $6 billion for retirement benefits. As part of its effort to control personnel costs, the Postal Service has identified the need to create a new retirement plan for future employees.
Security Lapses Put Vehicle Parts Stock at Risk
Audit Report – DR-AR-14-005 - March 26, 2014
It takes a lot of repair work to keep one of the nation's largest vehicle fleets up and running. Make that 321 repair garages – or vehicle maintenance facilities – the U.S. Postal Service needs to keep its 211,000 aging vehicles in working order.
These garages must keep well stocked with a wide range of parts – everything from motors and transmissions to nuts and bolts – and maintenance personnel need to follow a number of safety procedures to protect these supplies.
International Postal Big Data: Discussion Forum Recap
May 12, 2014 (RARC-IB-14-002)
"Big Data" — large, complex datasets combined with sophisticated, powerful analytics — is helping transform science, research, and many industries by providing a level of insights previously unavailable at unprecedented speed. For businesses in particular – including the mail and shipping industries – the knowledge gained from the real-time analysis of vast quantities of data has the potential to spur innovation on a higher scale as well as improve efficiencies and customer satisfaction.
Like, Share, Tweet: Social Media and the Postal Service
April 21, 2014 (RARC-WP-14-010)
No doubt about it, social media has revolutionized the world of communication and commerce, radically changing the way people decide what, where, and when to buy. Accordingly, most businesses and organizations now view social media as an opportunity to reach and engage large customer audiences in ways impossible before: directly, in-real time, and at lower cost.
Enhancing the Value of Mail Follow Up: Discussion Forum Recap
April 3, 2014 (RARC-IB-14-001)
Hard copy communications, and mail specifically, are not not the relic some claim them to be. Mail can still create a powerful connection with people of all ages. This is especially true when it is well designed and digitally interactive. Although senders pay for mail to be sent, catching recipients' eyes determines the value of the communication. Without consumer interest in mailpieces like direct mail, catalogs, or bill reminders, the mail value chain breaks down.
Downsizing Postal Service Should Step Up Knowledge Management
Audit Report - DP-AR-14-002 - 03/07/2014
The Postal Service is getting leaner. But as it trims its workforce it is also losing some of its most valuable resources: long- term employees with extensive knowledge that is vital to running a vast organization.
