Easton Maple Composite Wood BBCOR Bat: MC271 Adult |
Average Customer Review
Easy Swinging, fairly large sweet spot considering the shape. Nicely finished and durable. Surprisingly balanced feel for a wood bat. The tapered grip is great. I have been taking weekly batting practice with it for the last 3 months and hit plenty of balls of the hand of the bat without it breaking. I would definitely buy again.
Very slick coating on the handle, but a little pine tar solves that.

Ask A Question ORWhat style of knob is on this bat?
The Easton Maple Composite Wood BBCOR Bat: MC271 Adult features a medium flare knob.
Is the barrel 2 and one half inches?
The barrel of the Easton Maple Composite Wood BBCOR Bat will be 2 1/4 inches. All 271 models will have 2 1/4 inch barrels.
What is the difference between a long taper and a short or medium taper bat? Does a short taper make the barrel part of the bat longer?
The taper refers to how quickly the barrel tapers, or "levels out", into the handle. It doesn't necessarily reflect barrel length, but the meaty part of the barrel on bats with short tapers is typically a little more even as the taper doesn't begin it's transition until below the middle of the barrel. Bats with longer tapers are often a little more balanced in weight and the barrel begins it's transition, or taper, into the handle higher up on the bat.
As the industry leader for over 30 years, Easton Baseball/Softball has continued to raise the bar with innovation, originality and ingenuity. It began in 1969, when Easton produced the first true aluminum bat, and has continued throughout the past three decades with virtually all significant industry "firsts" having been pioneered by Easton: first CU31 bat; first C405 bat; first titanium bat; first Carbon Core bat; first Scandium bat; etc. The trend continues today with bats such as the Tri-Shell and the ConneXion.

Taking accuracy, distance and forgiveness to new highs, RAZR X HL Irons have a low center of gravity so golfers can launch shots higher, even on impacts low on the clubface, so golf balls fly consistently longer and land softer on the greens. RAZR Technology makes the sweet spot more accessible at lower impacts, where most golfers tend to hit the ball. Customized Set Options are also available for golfers who want to substitute RAZR X HL Hybrids into their set.
RAZR Technology shifts the center of gravity lower and deeper by redistributing weight in the back cavity; providing the power and forgiveness of a wide-sole iron with the precision and playability of a thin-sole iron.
Creates smooth turf interaction for better distance, accuracy and distance.
Fully integrated clubface/undercut cavity system that enables engineers to precisely position the CG and engineer the face of each individual iron to maximize ball speed.
Constructed of aluminum and thermoplastic polyurethane, it fine-tunes sound and enhances feel off the clubface.

Here is Nev's detailed breakdown of the differences between the Dominator/ Spitfire/ El Fuego and Futura from the old forum.
I know a couple of people wanted it brought across to this forum and I agree, it's a great insight that is still very useful.
I have been surfing my Dominator and El Fuego a lot recently in all sorts of waves. I have been unusually quiet and hesitant to give my opinion until now. There have been many posts requesting feedback and guidance and at last I feel I have a reasonably clear perspective on the pros and cons of these two models in relation to other boards in our range and in comparison to similar board by other manufacturers .
Firstly let me say that the Futura is not really in the same genre as the El Fuego, Dominator (or Pod etc). It is inherently more high performance in its rocker and volume. The El Fuego and Dominator/Spitfire, are more performance fish style boards.
Regarding the Futura, John Gannon who is Tajs PT and coach surfs the FA602 exclusively. For him there is no need for two or more boards. I believe it is the most under appreciated board in our range.
The quest for ultra performance in a fish/retro board has thankfully led us to the Dominator/Spitfire/El Fuego range of boards that remove that compromised, out on the face, flatter style surfing of most wide tailed board, especially classic fishes. Clearly the Dominator has blown doors with regard to meeting the criteria of having the same paddle and glide as a fat thick short fish, pod biscuit, nitro etc, but also having remarkable square off the bottom, vertical in the pocket ability definitely lacking in these other designs. I have never surfed such a small board that had such solid directional control through turns. Amazing!
Anyway, enough about the Dominator/Spitfire.
Keep in mind that if you can only afford one board in this hybrid genre, ultimately either one will go unreal. You will develop that intimate connection that happens with much surfing and recognize the positive attributes of the design.
However when there is CHOICE, one has the privilege of being critical, putting various designs in particular boxes, which is what I am about to do.
I have 4 boards now in my truck. A 62 x 18 3/4 x 2 7/16Flexfire, 511 El Fuego, 58 Spitfire and the 66 Addvance...(Soon there with the Sweet Potato designed by Dan Mann!!!! Mark Price says it will be my 1-2ft board...I am going crazy...How are you all holding up???)
Over the past couple of months I have had some magic sessions on my El Fuego, and I have determined that it surfs exactly as I expected, which IS clearly different to the Dominator / Spitfire.
Here are my experiences, keeping in mind I am average Joe in ability @ 51yrs, 70kg and 511 tall and I am referring to 1 to 5ft waves.
Yalingup, super fun 4 to 5ft lefts after the Taj Small Fries event. I needed to out paddle 6 to 10 competent longboarders and thankfully got a ridiculous amount of waves...I could not believe how fast and drivey it felt. As positive off the bottom as my 62 Flexfire. Big full loopy on rail cutbacks. The board had that rail to rail glide that a fish has, not so square off the bottom but sensational when you leaned into the turn. I felt that if I was on my 58 Dom, turns would have been a tad too quick and short..I think I could have gone a bit more vertical in certain sections, but most likely I would have nursed it through turns in that mid strength offshore wind. No worries though, with the El Fuego.
Snapper...Easter weekend before heading to Bells. 4ft and packed, but...O.M.G! I swear I have never gone that fast. I could pump it rail to rail and just keep winding up the dial...Then into speed shedding roundhouses or long floaters. I got one wave from this side of the behind the rock to the middle of Cooly.....Slaloming though the manic crowd.
I do not think that he Dominator would have gone that quick down the line. It would have surfed tighter to the pocket and I might have pulled some more vertical maneuvers, but not made as many waves. The El Fuegos feeling of forward momentum/glide at warp speed, but with back foot control, is I believe unique to this board.
Rincon / Bells bowl 2 to 4ft 2 sessions. Morning was clean and fun... Rincon is one of those point waves that requires quick down the line speed from takeoff, BUT with a more vertical approach to that often crumbly foamy lip always coming at you. I felt I would have been much better on my Dominator but there was literally no-one out!! Everyone was heading to pre heat surf or get a spot to watch the event. There was no way I was going to run up to my car parked at Winki to swap as I was having too much fun. If this was my only hybrid I would have been satisfied that the board went so well... However I gotta admit that all I could think of was how well my Spitfire would be going! Ha!
Late arvo sesh and I grabbed the Spitfire and the thing went mental...Case closed.
Now I am really starting to understand these boards.
Fat open faces where you need rail in the water holding its line?...El Fuego
Racy walls where speed is king and you have the section ahead to shed all that speed via sweet roundhouse, extended re-entry floater or boost for a air?...El Fuego
Beachies where front foot drive/resistance is required to maintain speed to get to the next foam ball coming at you?... El Fuego
Reefs that are bumpy, strong offshore where you need glide with inherent speed to gracefully go from rail to rail, so as to figure what the heck the wave is gunna do?...El Fuego.
I foot peelers when all you want to do is do the Reno Abellira...Do a cheater five.... Forever? ( Surfabout circa 1977?) El Fuego
So where does the Dominator/Spitfire fit in now??? Everywhere else where you need to turn on a dime with speed.
Sucky racing walls that give you plenty of ops for a vertical snap here and there...Quick off the mark high line drives, drop into the bowl, square off the bottom and up into the lip....Up and down with rhythm and control ,and plenty of speed and forgiveness to boot. Dominator/Spitfire.
Punchy peaky beachies, where you take off late, square it off the bottom with speed into a snap. Surfing tight to the power in waves that require spontaneity and the need to keep moving rail to rail... Dominator/Spitfire
Reefs that beg you to go top to bottom, pull in and come out into a gouge...Immediate recovery underfoot, back on plane and into the next turn....Can you feel it? Dominator/Spitfire
One foot peelers when you wind up sooooo much speed, whilst still doing tight little hacks...no cheater fives, just full tilt windup Energizer rabbit amp-out.... Dominator/Spitfire
The verdict if you have to choose? (what a bummer!)
Generally, Id go with the Dominator/Spitfire, if you have a normal board to back you up for those more open faced days when you need draw/length in your turns.
The El Fuego could almost be an all round board, one board option as it holds a longer line when needed but still rips when conditions are marginal. (but not quite as vertical/tight as the Dom/ spitfire)
It is a no brainer if you love that inherent fish feel, but still want to TURN!
The Dominator/Spitfire as a one board option would be leaving yourself short.
The El Fuego?..maybe not as much, but I reckon youd still need your trusty normal board.
and the Futura?..Yes, you could definitely surf this as a one board option, albeit not as good in the particular areas of strength of the Dom/Spitfire/El Fuego.
The El Fuego will not make the Futura redundant...No way.
Clear as mud?

It's hard to believe that it's been a year already since I got my RRR, which is going to be joined by a birthday Trem!
Ryan, thanks again for doing this, it's great. I think this has become a grand new tradition for me, every birthday I'll buy a pedal from the good Doctor. And by the time I'm an old man, my entire house will be taken over with awesome pedals. It'll be like an episode of hoarders, but with less feces and more rockin' out.

My family and I, including our three sons, ages 23-26, and my mother-in-law, had an extraordinary time at Le Capanne. Our hosts made the trip extremely memorable. The villa has been in their family for 200 years, and their hospitality and attention to detail were remarkable in perfecting our stay. Our tour of Florence was remarkable - our knowledgeable tour guide had a PHD in Art History, and provided us a great context for what we were seeing! Our cooking class at the villa was the highlight of our trip. We have traveled to many places around the world. This was very special, partly for the beauty of the villa and Tuscany, but mostly because of the great people we found there. We strongly recommend it!
-M. Johnson
Anonymous· 2 years agoMy friends and I had a great time at Le Capanne. From this location we had a number of great day trips in Tuscany. We also did a bunch of bike rides using the villa as our base. Our hosts were on top of everything. The villa is extremely well maintained with great space and comforts at hand. We especially enjoyed our cooking class at the villa (and we are four novice cooks). This was a special trip, Tuscany is so beautiful, and the special people who run the villa make it very highly rated. It was fantastic!

Le Capanne
Camporsevoli, Tuscany, ItalyTuscany is filled with surprises, and revealing its secrets is the magnificent Le Capanne villa. This unique villa is ideal for travelers who desire to immerse themselves in a country's culture and history. Among the region's many surprises is the hamlet of Camporsevoli. Consisting of just five hilltop buildings, it boasts a long history - the cellar of its main villa was once an ancient Etruscan tomb. It also shelters the lovingly restored Le Capanne farmhouse, which you are invited to make your enchanting home away from home.
Original charm blends with modern comfort in this five-bedroom retreat. Spend the morning exploring a local market, then return to the kitchen, complete with a fireplace for indoor barbecues, to whip up a Tuscan feast. Boasting its own pool, the three-story farmhouse features a top floor master bedroom with fantastic valley views. As you gaze across the landscape, you are sure to be enticed outdoors with wine tasting at the Brunello winery in Montalcino or a visit to Piero della Francesca's mystical frescoes in Arezzo.

The Bearcats lost their final home game of the season with a crushing 55-0 loss Friday night against the Porter Ridge Pirates, bringing the Bearcats' season record to 2-8.
Following their disappointing defeat at the Homecoming game Oct. 12, hopes were high for a win Friday but those hopes dwindled as the game went on: by the end of the first quarter, the Bearcats were already down 14-0. The game went downhill from there, with the Pirates gaining 7, 21, and 13 points in the next three quarters respectively, resulting in a final score of a devastating 55-0.
Manuel Alonso kicked off for the Bearcats to open the game. About eight minutes were left in the first quarter when the Pirates scored their first touchdown and received the extra point. The Bearcats held them off for the next several minutes until the Pirates scored a 22-yard rushing touchdown and scored the point after touchdown with one minute left in the quarter. Porter Ridge's Matt Wogan made the PAT only following a series of penalty flags against the teams for offside against Bearcats (declined), a false start, and unsportsmanlike conduct that delayed the PAT.
The second quarter opened a little more strongly; although the Bearcats didn't score, they were able to hold off the Pirates until the last three minutes of the quarter when the Pirates again scored a touchdown and gained the PAT.
Down 21-0, the disappointed Bearcats left the field and the Anson High School Band, together with the color guard, played its rendition of "Earth, Wind and Fire." The singers were introduced along with their parents or guardians.
The third quarter opened as Porter Ridge kicked off to Anson; just minutes later, the Pirates scored another three yard rushing touchdown and PAT with 10:22 still left in the quarter. This set the trend for the rest of the game: the Pirates completed a 25 yard pass for a touchdown and kicked the PAT with eight minutes left in the quarter before scoring a 40 yard defensive touchdown and PAT with three minutes left.
The fourth quarter had barely started when the Pirates made a 25-yard rushing touchdown and PAT, bringing the score to 49-0 with 10 minutes left in the game. The final points of the game were made with the Pirates' 22-yard rushing touchdown scored with three minutes left. The Bearcats' only consolation was that the PAT was bad, making the final score 55-0.
The Bearcats will play their final game of the season on Oct. 26 at 7:30 p.m. at Parkwood in a 4A/3A Southern Carolina contest.

Lake Fort Phantom Hill Sees Record Lows; What It Means For Our Water Supply
By: Gina Benitez
Updated: August 16, 2012
It doesn't take an expert to realize something is off.
"Our lakes and reservoirs are being hit harder than they have in recent history, from the climate forces mostly," says Wayne Lisenbee, Abilene's Assistant Director of Water Utilities.
Lake Fort Phantom Hill, Abilene's main source of water, is nearly 13 feet below the spillway and a little over 44% filled. The city provided us with records from 2005 and this the lowest lake levels have been since then.
Lisenbee says, "The ground is so dry, that when it does rain, the ground soaks up most of that rain and it doesn't get to our resevoirs."
Though levels are frighteningly low, many residents living along the lake believe there is no cause for concern.
"I think it's very normal. I think the water level rises and falls every several years so this really isn't unusual," says David Womack, whose family has been living on the lake for decades.
And the city estimates the life expectancy of our reservoir looking at the worst drought conditions in history. In short: even if we were faced with them, we'd still have enough water for at least two years, before more desperate measures needed to be put in place. But conservation efforts still must be actively used.
"The lakes are depressed. They're not as bad as they've historically been but we could be there pretty soon. If we have 2 or 3 years in a row like 2011 we could be entering a record breaking area where we haven't seen in a really long time," says Lisenbee.

Farmers' Market Recipes: Yellow Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons
This recipe was inspired by one shared by Chef Carla Hall on ABC's "The Chew." It uses ingredients purchased at the Newton Farmers' Market, including sweet end-of-summer yellow tomatoes and white wine, and is topped by crunchy Gouda-and-rye-bread croutons
This will be the last "Newton at the Farmers' Market" column of the season, but the Newton Farmers' Markets will continue running on Tuesdays from 1:30 p.m. – 6 p.m. at Cold Spring Park until October 30 and on Fridays from noon - 5 p.m. at the Post 440 until October 5.
According to Parks & Recreation Market Manager Judy Dore, a brand new Newton Winter Famers' Market will set up at the Hyde Community Center on Tuesdays starting Nov. 13. The market, which will run through June, will include winter vegtables, wine, cheese, fresh eggs, coffee, maple syrup,
baked goods and demonstrations from local chefs.
Merchant: Turtle Creek Winery, Lincoln, MA
What they sell: Burgundy-style wines (red and white)
About the winery: Owned by Kip Kumler, Turtle Creek produces about 900 cases of wine per year. According to their website, they grow Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir and Riesling grapes here in Massachusetts, as well as purchasing grapes from growers in California.
Coming soon: Turtle Creek's 2011 Riesling will be released in October.
Merchant: Cannistraci Fine Foods, Melrose, MA
About the vendor: Naomi Cannistraci, whose fiancé Jay MacNevin mans the booth at the Newton Farmers' Market, is the baker. The business has been in her family of Sicilian bakers for over 100 years.
What they sell: Traditional, Italian rustic bread sliced, whole and in batone form; popovers, cinnamon-raisin bread, rye bread and multigrain bread.
Merchant: Foxboro Cheese Company, Foxboro, MA
About the vendor: The Foxboro Cheese Company is owned and operated by Ed and Nancy Lawton and is part of Lawton's Family Farm, which has been in Ed's family for almost 300 years. The cheese room and aging cave, located in a barn that is over 180 years old, started producing cheeses in 2009.
What they sell: Asiago, and flavored and plain Fromage Blanc cheeses. They also sell cheeses from other local artisan producers, including fresh mozzarella, cheddar and plain and flavored Goudas.
Yellow Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons
(serves 6 – 8)
- ½ large sweet onion, chopped to a medium dice
- 1 yellow pepper, chopped to a medium dice
- 1 rib celery, chopped to a medium dice
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 ½ lbs. ripe yellow tomatoes, cored, seeded and roughly chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, chopped
- ½ cup dry white wine
- ½ cup dry sherry
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 1 cup heavy cream
- salt and pepper to taste
- 6-8 slices rye bread
- 8 oz. Gouda or other semi-soft cheese (I used chipotle Gouda), sliced
- 4 tablespoons butter at room temperature
- extra sprigs of thyme as garnish (optional)
- In a large pot, sauté the onions, celery and yellow pepper in the olive oil until the onions are translucent and all of the vegetables are soft.
- Add the tomatoes, garlic and the chopped thyme and simmer on low heat, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
- Add the white wine and sherry and simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Add the stock and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
- When you have about 8 minutes of cooking time left, make the grilled cheese croutons:
- Place slices of cheese between two pieces of the rye bread; repeat until all bread and cheese are used.
- Butter the upper pieces of the bread using 2 tablespoons of the butter.
- Put the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a large frying pan and heat over medium-high heat until butter is melted.
- Place sandwiches in pan with the unbuttered side down and cook for 2 minutes or until golden brown, then flip and brown on other side until cheese is melted.
- Let cool for a minute or two, then cut into 1-inch croutons, "discarding" the crust pieces (meaning "nibble on these at your leisure").
- Using a stick blender in the pot (or by putting soup in small batches into a regular blender), puree the soup until smooth. NOTE: If you are using a regular blender, take off the center "cup" and cover with a towel while blending. Start at a low speed and gradually increase since soup will be hot and you don't want an explosion.
- Add the cream, stir well and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve into wide-mouthed bowls, adding 3 – 4 croutons per bowl. Garnish with sprig of thyme as desired.

Google's Enhanced AdWords Campaigns
You can almost feel it building up every time it comes around.
That almost electric tingle in your fingertips and rapidly growing itch in the back of your brain that lights the fuse on your hand's afterburners and rockets it to your device. The race is never acknowledged, but it's always on. The finish line can be anything. And your answer-loaded info-missile is being constructed as fast as your network will allow. For something that hits so frequently, it's amazing how you still get excited when you can be the fastest one to an answer to whatever question is on your "dot-com generation" friends' predictably impatient minds. For those gathered, this whole unspoken information retrieving Olympics often becomes a spectator's sport. Others often just think it's stupid until the pressure is on and they're in heat of the moment.
As of this very moment, AutoResponderMax has sent out more than 2.5 MILLION customized emails on behalf of its growing list of clients. That's 2.5 MILLION personalized connections between our retailers and their customers and no one had to lift a finger.
Now let's do a little creative math* (*wild speculation) based on this post. Extrapolating from that single anecdote we can say with absolute certainty* that those emails have generated at least $1,297,585.88*. Heck… while we're guessing, let's say it it was a billion dollars*! Because it totally could have been*.
Regardless, the fact is that AutoResponderMax is easily one of the easiest, most affordable, most effective marketing tools for your Volusion store – did you notice how there was no asterisk* on that statement? That's because it's completely true! Seriously. ARMax is crazy good and the first month is free. Go sign up. Now.
This is an actual, unretouched screen shot from our boss's iPhone showing that as yesterday, The Red Hat Society's online store had made $1,118 in April by using AutoResponderMax – that's a 2,281% ROI. If you haven't already clicked over to AutoResponderMax to start your free trial, then allow us to give you all the details…
We own and operate The Red Hat Society Store. That gives us a lot of first-person insight into the needs of the average Volusion retailer. That insight led us to build AutoResponderMax – the email marketing tool for Volusion. We built it to meet a lot of the communication needs we have with our own online store. The screen shot here proves that we were pretty successful.
What you see here is a shot of the AutoResponderMax Dashboard app for iPhone. (Which is totally free, by the way.) It shows April's usage data. Stated simply, ARMax sent 2,154 event-triggered (and personalized) emails to Red Hat customers. A remarkable 70% were opened and 41% of those resulted in click throughs. Those are all really good numbers if your only goal is to build your relationship with your customers. If, on the other hand, you'd also like to make money, the real number to look at is this month's revenue – $1,118. That's over a thousand dollars of revenue that is directly related to emails sent by AutoResponderMax. The Red Hat Society Store is on the Plus Plan (the most popular level) which means that thousand dollars cost us exactly $49 – bringing us back to that incredible 2,281% ROI – except that it isn't incredible. It's credible – and provable.
We have trouble talking about AutoResponderMax sometimes because basically we always just want to say, "Try it, for crying out loud! The first 30 days are free and it's awesome and it totally pays for itself over and over and it's so easy and what are you waiting for? DO IT, DO IT, DO IT!" Now, with this photographic proof that it works so dramatically well, we're almost overwhelmed with the desire to reach out of the screen, grab your mouse and sign you up ourselves. Of course, that would be rude, so we'll just strongly suggest that if you're a Volusion retailer and you don't have AutoResponderMax, you're almost certainly leaving money on the table and that's just crazy. Go sign up right now!
We're Going to Make You Cry, Then (While You're Emotionally Vulnerable) We're Going to Talk About Ecommerce In a Way That May Seem Crass In Context, But We Assure You That Our Motives Are Pure, So Just Go With It
While searching the Internet this morning for important new pictures of baby sloths, we stumbled on the video we've posted below. Before you play it, we'd like to warn you about a few things. First, it's eleven minutes long. Second, you're going to want to watch all of it. Finally, unless your heart is a tiny, ice-cold cinder, you're going to cry. We're misting up just thinking about it, but that might be because we're also listening to Sarah McLachlan, so we're probably thinking about that frigging animal shelter commercial that always drops like a bomb into the middle of whatever lighthearted romp you're watching on TV and brings your life to a screeching halt while you scrape together all of your change to donate just so you can make all the big-eyed homeless puppies stop crying in HD all up in your grill.
The video below is the opposite of that. Enjoy.
Caine's Arcade from Nirvan Mullick on Vimeo.
Okay… now just pull yourself together now so we can talk about this like the totally composed businesspeople we are. So, that was deeply charming on a lot of levels – the boundless and inspiring enthusiasm of youth, the near-universal love of The Arcade and the way that something so frivolous can bind us all at such a basic level, the unqualified support of a working class father for his son's passion project, the pride of accomplishment – there's a lot of real genuine heart-string-plucking going on here.
… but did you notice how no one gave a crap about Caine's Arcade until a savvy outsider stepped in and started a social media campaign in support of it? Did you further notice that Caine's Arcade also benefited from the Holy Grail of viral luck – an appearance on the front page of reddit? The Internet basically prevented this from being an incredibly sad or possibly even heart-crushingly tragic story. Let's talk about how all of this could have played out after the jump…
Meet AutoResponderMax
Six months ago Google released a major improvement to Google Analytics: Multi-Channel Funnels. With this new feature, we now have deeper insight into conversion attribution and we can improve overall sales tracking.
Previous to this release, a fundamental problem with web tracking was that it only credited the last link clicked prior to the conversion. Marketers using the last click methodology were not able to provide a complete view of the customer's journey through the entire digital buying process. With Multi-Channel Funnels we're able to generate reports showing the full path to conversion over a 30 day period. Analyzing a customer's path across multiple digital channels (organic searches, paid searches, referrals, social networks, email etc.) has given Brand Labs a much clearer understanding of how all channels can assist each other in driving a conversion.
Since their release the assisted conversion attribution reports have lived up to the hype with their ability to connect the conversion path dots in ways we previously could only guesstimate. This has resulted in the ability to make more informed business decisions and better allocate resources on behalf of our clients. The best way for me to illustrate the value of these reports without getting anymore technical is to turn the microscope on my own buying behaviors and processes. The info graphic below shows how I jumped from channel to channel on my quest to purchase a Marmot brand jacket. Hopefully the value and insight gained from attributing assists to each channel involved in the conversion is more clearly illustrated in this graphical format.
Once the leaves fall of the trees, it's too late to completely redo your online store in time for the holidays, but you can make a little holiday magic with these three down and dirty tips.
1. Do you have clear calls to action? Be sure that emails and banners tell shoppers exactly what to do. While you're at it, have fun with calls to action. Selling gift-wrapping? How about "Wrap it up?" Have free shipping? Go for "Send it free!" And of course, there is always the clear and concise (but boring), "Shop Now."
2. Test your ideas: A/B tests are great ways to discover what's working with your holiday strategy. Test subject lines, calls to action, buttons – anything, really. Once you have the result, optimize your holiday campaign.
3. Tell customers about shipping: Shipping is very important during the holidays. Make sure your customers know that gifts will arrive on time with shipping calculators or free shipping. And do you have free shipping? Tell them loud and clear. Be borderline obnoxious about this one. People don't like paying for shipping when they have to send fruitcake to their "favorite" uncle.
5 Secrets to Writing Good SEO
First of all, come up with a title like that. Second, forget about SEO and think about content. Two sentences in, and you've already got two tips! But we've got 5 more that we've learned in our time improving our clients' search-engine rankings.
1. Write well: Write really, really well. You don't have to aim for Faulkner (actually, aim for anyone but Faulkner) but you do need to create content that people want to read.
2. Content is king: You can have a dozen SEO keywords, but if you don't have good content, you've got nothing. How many times have you searched for information only to find some dubious web-page that's only around for Google to find? What you really want is good information. Assume your customers want good information and give it to them.
Read the rest after the jump…
You're an ecommerce merchant. Let's say that your store has been up and running for a while. Let's also say that it's doing well. Of course, it may not be doing as well as you'd like, but if that's the case, you sure don't need a list of reasons to reexamine your site. If your store isn't doing what you'd like it to do, you should be going over it with a fine-toothed comb. On the other hand, if your store is doing well, it's easy to get complacent. If you fall into that group, this article is for you.
We've said it a bazillion times: a website is a living thing. You have to nurture it – help it grow. If you neglect it, it'll die… or worse. It'll grow beyond your control until it's a huge, rambling jumble of awkward navigation, dead ends and baffling content. Still unconvinced? Check out the list for the scolding you so richly deserve.
Read the rest after the jump…
We'd like to talk a little bit about naming strategies. For the sake of today's discussion, we'll be using a handy example – ecommerce powerhouse: Volusion.
Clearly, Volusion isn't a "real" word – at least in the sense that it doesn't mean anything other than "ecommerce powerhouse" (as we just mentioned). Now we don't know exactly what led Volusion to choose their name and we really don't like to look things up, so we're just going to wildly speculate about Volusion's decision process without a trace of factual information whilst at the same time deftly avoiding all research. You may not want to quote us. (Seriously. Don't quote us.)
See our unsubstantiated theories after the jump…

UNION — A restaurant, a home care service, a state agency, and the National Guard are among the newest members of the Union County Chamber of Commerce.
Torance Inman, chamber executive director, announced this week that Young Office Supply, the South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation Department, Ambassador Personnel, Home Helpers of Spartanburg, the S.C. Army National Guard, and Cherry Blossom Asian Cuisine have joined the chamber.
Inman recently presented membership plaques to the owners, staff or representatives of Cherry Blossom Asian Cuisine, Home Helpers of Spartanburg, South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation Department, and the S.C. Army National Guard. He said plaques will be presented to Young Office Supply and Ambassador Personnel at a later date.
With the new members, the chamber's membership now stands at approximately 230.
"It's encouraging that we continue to attract new members from a very diverse group of businesses," Inman said Friday. "Each of them has researched the chamber and realized the benefits of chamber membership.
"The chamber offers its members information related to doing business in Union County including statistics, demographics, availability of property and other resources," he said. "In addition, the chamber offers networking opportunities through Business After Hours and information about other opportunities such as Human Resources Association as well other events that take place in the City of Union and throughout the county."
Cherry Blossom Asian Cuisine is located at 441 N. Duncan Bypass, Suite #12, Union, while the S.C. Army National Guard is located at 165 Industrial Park Road, Union, and the S.C. Vocational Rehabilitation Department is located 353 S. Church St., Union. Home Helpers of Spartanburg, however, is located 1855 E. Main St., Suite #14 and #134, Spartanburg.
Inman said chamber membership is not only open to businesses and other organizations in Union County but to those in adjoining counties that do business here.
"Membership is open to businesses from outside the county if they do business here," Inman said. "If it is a retail business or service group or a financial agency or non-profit organization located outside the county that does business here they can join the chamber."
Inman said at least 20 percent of the chamber members are located outside Union County.
For more information about the Union County Chamber of Commerce and opportunities to join, contact 864-427-9039 or log on at www.unionsc.com.
Editor Charles Warner can be reached at 864-427-1234, ext. 14, or by email at email@example.com.

Hi I am using int-ws as a ws client to connect a remote .NET WCF WS server module.
As the remote WS servers uses ws-addressing. I have to manually set the SoapAction header enrichment using the the config below before I pass the request message to the ws outbound gateway.
<ws:header-enricher input-channel="in" output-channel="out">
<ws:soap-action value="http://someURI"/>
My questions is, Can this enrichment done automatically by Spring integration, as the WSDL has all the soap-action URI defined anyway, Is there a setting anyway I could use?
If above is not possible? Is there any simple way I could simplfy the maintenance of the list of soap-action URIs? as I do not really want to "hard code" them in my config files. I suppose I could parse through the WSDL file and get a list of SoapAction URI in a custom enricher class.
What's the aim of setting soap-action enrichment manually in spring config? Is it a because of spring integration could not auto handle ws-addressing? I really do not see the point of setting it manually for every web method?
Your thoughts are very welcome...

A great little bag:
By Rapsfan905
from Richmond HIll (Ontario)
The photo does not do it justice! A very well-made and well-designed bag that is perfect for an evening out, casual or upscale. A perfect accent piece for any outfit. I wore it over a black coat and the bag popped!

Amazing small, elegant purse
By Lucia
from Pointe Claire, Quebec
I was watching the Barr + Barr collection all the time and finally I took the decision to buy this small, elegant, over the shoulder or cross-body purse in black. Well it is a high end small purse perfect for walking the town or take it to the opera or the Xmas party. You can fit all the necessities (without the regular things we carry "just in case" and forget about).

Genre: Reality, Dance
Premise: The seventh season of ``America's Best Dance Crew'' features 10 dance crews competing for the title and a cash prize of $100,000. There are nine all-new hip-hop crews plus a returning crew from season two, ``Fanny Pak,'' the first time in the series' history a crew from a prior season returns to the ``ABDC'' stage. Each episode features performances inspired by the music and persona of the artist of the week, and one of the two crews with the least number of viewer votes is eliminated by returning judges JC Chasez, Lil Mama and Dominic ``D-Trix'' Sandoval. Mario Lopez once again is the host.

Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
I've had the SPOT out a few times to play and it worked great right from the start. I plan on using it in a 340 kayak race so my crew and family can track my progress and find me. So far in all the test including full underwater, forgot it was on my pfd when I was working on rolls in the pool it has passed.
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
I do a lot of solo backpacking and I wanted a device that could be used in an emergency situation to get help as well as give my wife peace of mind while I was out of cell phone contact.
The device is simple to use and can be configured to send a pre-formatted text message that you have arrived at a checkpoint with the push of a button. The device can also upload your GPS coordinates/position to allow others to track your progress and, of course, it can be used to summon emergency help.
I used this device on roughly 2 dozen solo trips over an 18 month period in northern Michigan and Colorado. Without fail, it performed flawlessly. Battery life is good. Signal was good. It felt like a nice blanket on a cold night. Things were great until I went to cancel the service.
While I found the device to be useful, it was nearly impossible to cancel the subscription service. The company (at the time and perhaps currently) requires an annual subscription that is automatically set to auto-renew on a yearly basis. In order to cancel the subscription, SPOT requires a mile of red tape and seemingly impossible tasks to accomplish in a timely manner. In short, you can't just cancel. The customer service department is not at all helpful and after several calls trying to cancel without luck, I finally canceled the credit card associated with the subscription so it would not auto-renew.
If the company would allow a monthly subscription or a better way to cancel the service then my rating would be higher. As it stands now, SPOT is like a bad marriage.
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
Don't trust your life to this product. Usually unable to connect to satellite even on clear level terrain. Activation fee not even partially refundable after 45 days. This could cost you more than money.
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
I like it.
If you want just an S.O.S., go with the Resquelink etc. I backpack with Scouts. The Scouts Mom's love getting camp location at night as does my wife when I am packing alone.
If your a big boy, read the fine print, understand this comes with yearly fees and must notify them to terminate months before renewal. I read it, understood it and got the full deal.
When sending, do not rush the unit. If sending location, set it down and let it do it's thing. It worked every time for me when I STOPPED and had Southern exposure. Moving it was more hit and miss (track) mode. So it isn't perfect..
If you want just an SOS this is not the unit you want as I believe there are better quality units for just that purpose. (no fee for just S.O.S operation)
The canned (pre-made messages) are fine for me right now. To send messages I will wait for the units to get smarter as it appears to cumbersome to tie to smart phone etc... To toss this unit in a bag and hike with... sure.
In 4 years this unit will be obsolete. Smarter, faster, easier devices are coming with two-way messaging. For now, if you want hands on communication look at renting a satellite phone or go to more costly one piece units.
This little unit worked great for me as I grasp that we are dealing with multiple communications systems, inter linked to send a message from varying geographic conditions... give the little guy a chance to do it's thing. I spent 2 weeks in the back country and it worked great.
Never pushed the sos, and have confidence it will work and hope I never have to.
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
I originally owned the original SPOT, and now own the SPOT II. I upgraded purely due to the size, weight, and the addition of the custom message button on the SPOT II. I do not understand all the negative comments this device gets, as I have had nothing but positive experiences with my device, and the SPOT service over the past five years or so.
On usability:
The original SPOT I took a tiny bit of memorization, or notes scribbled in sharpie on the device itself, to remember what long and short presses did with each button. This was eliminated with the addition of buttons on the SPOT II - very easy to use.
On Reliability:
Maybe I'm just lucky, but I haven't had any connectivity issues with either the SPOT I or the SPOT II. every ok message I've ever sent weather it be in an open field, or in a forest of trees has gone through. My original SPOT I allowed my friends and family to track me along the highline trail in the high Uinta's of Utah for 10 days from under forest pines as well as high ridges. I even lost my SPOT once in the woods! Got home, got the coordinates it was broadcasting (it was in tracking mode), and found it within 9 feet of the coordinates it was broadcasting under a tree!
As a paraglider pilot I depend on this device to send ok and help messages to my fellow pilots when I land in remote areas and need a ride, or to just tell my fellow pilots and family I'm ok after a day of flying. Again - every one of my sent messages have been received.
On SPOT service:
The only time I've had to contact customer service was a positive experience. I was flying one day with a group of pilots, and one of the pilots in our group didn't check in, or land in the area we planned to meet. We got excessively worried about him, but since he had not included us in his SPOT message list, or given us his SPOT URL we had no way of looking to see if he was ok, or was having an emergency. We called SPOT customer service, and with nothing other than his name they were able to tell us that NO, he had not activated "help" or "SOS", and that YES his spot device was still moving. To there credit they would NOT tell us where he was since they had no idea who we were. That's good customer service in my opinion.
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
I love the simplicity of the device. Fire it up, send a message (choice of two presets). Usually it sends within a few minutes after acquiring a good signal. The tracking mode is cool to let people watch your tracks - updated every ten minutes. Comes with a handy holster and strap, Velcro, etc. for mounting it.
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
Annual renewal is expensive ($100). They put on a hidden $50 fee. They charge your credit card automatically every year. Expect to pay $300 before you catch on.
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
Works most of the time. My complaints are with customer service and its shady business practices.
Service and delivery comments:
I would like to reiterate what other reviews are saying about the customer service and service plans. The customer service is rude and unhelpful. The website is painfully slow and difficult to navigate. The auto-renewal policy is only mentioned in the fine print, which is difficult to find and full of legal jargon. There is no opt-in or opt-out option. There is no paper or electronic billing. There is no effort on their end to alert you when money is due or when the credit card on file is no longer valid.
I'm very disappointed that REI would promote a product with such horrible customer service and shady business practices. I would not recommend this product to anyone.
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
Don't buy if you expect this will send a message to save you in an emergency. It's a toy that will update your location via satellite maybe a quarter of the time; the rest of the signals will never make it though. This is what I found using it on several mountaineering and backpacking trips.
Also, if you want to buy this toy (which I don't recommend), VERY CAREFULLY read their full Terms and Conditions which is hidden deep in their web site. You'll find pages and pages of legal contract terms that gives them right to bill you for many additional charges to you fail to follow their terms to the letter.
Stay away from this operation!
Best Uses
Comments about SPOT II Satellite GPS Messenger:
I purchased a Spot II about three years ago to track my progress during the Colorado Trail Race. Over the years, I've used it for hundreds of hours (racing and training), and it has performed as expected. Tracking is good, but not perfect--if not facing directly skyward, some tracking points won't get through. Two summers ago, I used the 911 feature in Canyonlands National Park when I came across an elderly man who was suffering from a heart attack--and it worked flawlessly.
Note that vibrations may kill your Spot. Friends who have carried Spots on their handlebars seem to have far more failures than those who carry them in their packs. I carry mine in a small pouch on the top of my shoulder strap, so that it more-or-less faces up whether I'm riding or hiking.
Especially for multi-day solo races and rides, my Spot is mandatory equipment. It provides a healthy degree of security, while allowing friends and family to follow along. I also pop it into my pack for longer day rides and other adventures.

PEJ New Media Index: December 5-9, 2011
Most Viewed News & Politics Videos on YouTube For the Week of December 3 - 9, 2011 |
1. A Spanish-language video of Enrique Peña Nieto, the front-runner in Mexico's presidential race, stumbling over a book question at a book fair in Guadalajara |

The New Media Index is a weekly report that captures the news agenda of social media, with a focus on blogs, Twitter and YouTube. These platforms are an important part of today's news information narrative and shape the way Americans interact with the news. The expansion of blogs and other social media sites has allowed news-consumers and others outside the mainstream press to have more of a role in agenda setting, dissemination and interpretation. Through this New Media Index PEJ aims to find out what subjects in the national news the online sites focus on, and how that compares with the narrative in the traditional press.
A detailed description of the NMI methodology, which was modified in August 2011, is available here.

My advice would be to stay in a Walmart parking lot in your car. This room was dirty, the beds are old, the pillows are TERRIBLE. And don't take your shoes off, the carpet is filthy. The manager (I assume) was a sourpuss checking us in. Overall a bad experience. We're done with Motel 6.

Are you feeling the tell-tale signs of winter? Well so is your pet! Just like you or me, animals are strongly affected by cold temperatures, so now is the time to start thinking about how you can keep them comfortable and healthy during these cold days of winter.
It's a great idea to take your pet to your veterinarian for a check- up. Better to take preventative measures to pre-empt any problems that could worsen as temperatures continue to drop. This is especially important for older pets, as they often have conditions like arthritis that makes their joints very sensitive and tender in colder months.
During the colder temperatures of a Massachusetts winter, keep your pet indoors as much as possible. When on walks, keep them on a leash and close to you at all times. This way you can make sure that they aren't going to get into anything dangerous, like anti-freeze or rock salt. Keeping you furry friends on a leash prevents them from wondering too close to frozen ponds or lakes with thin ice. When you return from home your walk, wipe off your dog's feet. He can ingest road salt, antifreeze, or other chemicals while licking his paws.
Did you know that Antifreeze is like maple syrup to animals? Its sweet smell and taste can be attractive and LETHAL to pets. Anti-freeze is poisonous to your pets, so be sure all antifreeze containers are tightly closed and placed on a high shelf.
Whether it is for a cat or dog, make sure your pet has a warm place to sleep, away from any drafts. We all know not to leave our pet in a car during summer, but you may not realize that the same goes for the winter-when a car basically acts as a refrigerator!
If you keep your pet outside, make sure he has adequate shelter from the winter elements, and regularly check your pet's water bowl to make sure it isn't frozen. Know the signs of hypothermia and frostbite. Here's a great article that will help you out, http://hypothermia.org/animalhypo.htm. On particularly cold days or nights, bring your pet indoors where it is warm.

My Brother has a wheaton Terrier. no matter the time of year he goes into the water for a dip. The coldest day in janurary to February he will go into the water. Hw has done this since a puppy and is now around 5 years old. Cold weather does not bother him. He does not stay outside at night.

I just had a coyote in my back yard. Another good reason for keeping dogs on a leash. This is the second time we saw him.

Yikes! Did the coyote seem aggressive? Where abouts in Sharon did you see it?! I am always cautious while walking my dog at night! Someone mentioned seeing a few loose dogs (he wasnt sure if they were coyotes because it was dark) near the Salvation Army late at night too!

Animals have survived outdoors just fine for all of creation. If I coyote can survive outside all winter so can your dog (unless you have one of those breeds that have been genetically altered to be a pansy). I am not saying leave your dog outside 24 hours a day but geez, let them go out and play for as long as they want. Trust me they will love it and they will love you for it.

Had 2 dogs killed by cars so I will be happy to keep them in the kennel or on a leash. One chased a deer down to the highway after getting away from me, on Christmas Eve. So much for free roaming fun.
PS My dogs are not neutered if that is your definition of "pansy", and I am rewarded by the town by an extra fee for that.

HAHA no I have no problem with dogs not being neutered. I meant dogs that are specifically breed to have features that will hurt them in the long run, ie no hair, short noses, etc.
We have always provided a outdoor kennel for our dogs to run around in. It keeps them safe yet lets them enjoy being outside.
