Players enjoy week off after amazing International Crown weekend
Next week, the LPGA Tour gets back in the swing with the Meijer LPGA Classic presented by Kraft in Grand Rapids, Mich., but first, it's a week off to rest, relax and work on one's game, and players have been doing just that.
Spain's Azahara Munoz, Beatriz Recari, Belen Mozo and Carlota Ciganda won the inaugural International Crown by four points on Sunday, as they swept all four singles matches en route to a 15-point total. Sweden was second, while the Republic of Korea and Japan tied for third.
The tournament was highly successful, a hit with the players and the beginning of something I think will stick around for quite a long time. Twenty years from now, people will refer back to the first staging of the event at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Md., with fond memories.
Here are some highlights from the weekend that was. Spain took home a cool trophy and awesome crowns from Tiffany, and the close-knit group was over the moon with joy after their victory.
Saturday was a huge day, as the top-seeded United States team and second-seeded Republic of Korea had to face off in a sudden-death playoff to determine the fifth and final team that would advance to Sunday's singles. It was great theater on Golf Channel and in the press room – where Team Sweden stayed to watch after their press conference – and even though the Americans fell on the first extra hole, they were proud of their effort during the week.
The Republic of Korea celebrated the playoff win with some fans at Caves Valley, Na Yeon Choi and other players really got into the spirit of representing their countries, and this cutie was at the LPGA-USGA Girls Golf booth at the tournament. Fans were able to check out the world of social media at the LPGA's Social Media Lounge close to the 17th green at the course, Paula Creamer put together a cool Flipagram about the week in suburban Baltimore, and Stacy Lewis came to the course on Sunday, where she did a couple of Golf Channel interviews and hung out in the press room to answer fans' questions on Facebook for a bit.
Germany's Sandra Gal watched the event and hopes to be able to play in it in 2016 in Chicago, and the LPGA Communications team did a bang-up job at the tournament.
Elsewhere, Mina Harigae checked out an air show, Brittany Lincicome spent a ton on gas and took a walk down Memory Lane, and Michelle Wie hung out with old friends at a wedding. Brittany Lang and a slew of other pros were in lovely Long Island on Monday to support Hall of Famer Betsy King's GolfForeAfrica charity on Monday, while Lincicome played a round of golf solo and Natalie Gulbis got in some practice before playing in a charity event.
Cristie Kerr, Marina Alex, Victoria Elizabeth and Katherine Ekey played in an outing as well and were treated to views like this, Jane Park played a round left-handed, and Lexi Thompson carded yet another eagle. Munoz spent some touristy time in Washington, D.C., with family on Monday, and Wie curled up with her puppy pal.
Mariajo Uribe was hard at work in the gym, where she did a lot of upper-body work, on Monday, Thompson added some purple to her hair, and Gerina Piller and Gal played a demonstration match at Lancaster (Pa.) Country Club, site of next year's U.S. Women's Open, and also signed autographs and checked out a local market. Laura Diaz enjoyed a fun round of golf on Tuesday, Creamer is in the new issue of SHAPE magazine, and LPGA Chief Communications Officer Kraig Kann talked to Symetra Tour players about social media, media training and marketing themselves.
Danielle Kang captured this amazing photo of lightning at an airport, Kristy McPherson took in a baseball game, and Thompson spent some quality time with loved ones.
In other news, the LPGA announced on Tuesday that the 2015 season will begin in Florida at the Coates Golf Championship presented by R+L Carriers Jan. 28-31 at the Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club in Ocala. This should provide a quality crowd, as the Tour has not kicked off a season in its home state in more than a decade.
The bigger picture is that it is another full-field domestic event on the LPGA schedule, and that's a great addition. The LPGA just keeps getting stronger and stronger, and adding tournaments like this is just the latest example of one heck of an upswing.
Until next time….
The Social Scene: International Crown edition
Interesting start to inaugural event
The International Crown has enjoyed a rousing start to its inaugural competition at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Md.
The atmosphere has been festive and the action intense so far as teams jockey for position in pool play, and only one more day of that preliminary jousting remains before the four semifinalists are determined. Here's a look at the non-stop week the LPGA has enjoyed in the Baltimore suburbs.
The Jutanugarn sisters, Ariya and Moriya, of Thailand took a very cool "golfie" on Wednesday and have had a great start to the tournament so far. Here is a look at crowns each of the four winning players will receive on Sunday (here's the trophy again), and Anna Nordqvist of Sweden has been rocking some sweet shoes this week, courtesy of Adidas.
Lexi Thompson took over the LPGA's Instagram account on Tuesday, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake attended the tournament's gala dinner Tuesday night, and Ron Sirak of Golf World gave Golf Channel viewers tips on what they need to know about the event.
Japan has been pretty in pink this week and leads all teams with six points through the first two days, here's a trivia fact about displaying the U.S. flag, and Morgan Pressel showed her support for Team USA. The Republic of Korea has had a strong showing from fans this week and recharged from a solid Day One with a nice dinner on Thursday night, while former U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge helped lead the U.S. team to the first tee.
Azahara Munoz's parents are with her this week, Team USA bonded at a team dinner after a rough opening day, and this is a pretty moving photo of Paula Creamer on the first tee on Thursday morning. Here's a look at Team USA's caddies, this is an awesome throwback look by Golfweek's Beth Ann Nichols at a couple of Aussie mates who have played together a long time, and the crowds were great on a gorgeous Friday.
The U.S.' victories on Friday set off a Twitter frenzy, and the squad was all smiles in the interview room afterward. Sirak gave his seal of approval to the International Crown as a concept in this column, while GolfChannel.com's Randall Mell did a great job on this piece about Sweden's Mikaela Parmlid playing in this week's event while being nearly six months pregnant.
Elsewhere, Amanda Blumenherst gave a clinic for kids in Fort Wayne, Ind., Natalie Gulbis spent Wednesday at lovely Whistling Straits and found the course's famous sheep, and Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam posted this and this teaser showing what part of her new house in Lake Tahoe, Nev., will look like. Here's video of Danielle Kang playing the piano, Sophie Gustafson got a sampling of her favorite beer at a brewery, and Mina Harigae went kayaking for the first time.
Lizette Salas had a blast with The First Tee of South Los Angeles, Mariajo Uribe worked out hard on Thursday, and Michelle Wie posted this cool aerial view of Miami and spent time with friends in San Francisco. Sandra Gal rode a horse for the first time, Brittany Lincicome played some tennis in the heat, and Jessica Korda was as happy as a clam in a bookstore on Friday.
It's been a great week so far, and we still have the weekend to provide an exclamation point.
Until next time….
The Social Scene: International Crown edition
Players take to course at inaugural event
You could feel the excitement begin to build for the International Crown at a green and lush Caves Valley Golf Club on Tuesday. I arrived at the course early to get a feel for the tournament grounds and was pleased to discover how jazzed everyone is to be here in Owings Mills, Md., playing for their countries and this amazing trophy.
It's going to be a heck of a week, and players were already busy peppering the social media sites with photos and posts. Here is a somewhat comprehensive sampling.
The Commish, Mike Whan, is ready, staff was busy getting players' gear organized, and American Lexi Thompson checked out the course, met some eager young fans and hit the range. Team USA had a lot of fun at an online hangout on Monday night, this is the Republic of Korea's area in the locker room, and waiters from nearby Sullivan's Steakhouse made the Koreans feel welcomed on Monday night.
The teams took photos on Tuesday morning, from a complete group shot of all 32 players to individual photos. Here is Sweden, Thailand, Australia and United States, just to show a few. Thompson will have these new Pumas to wear this week and didn't miss her workout on Tuesday, and Paula Creamer has some new kicks to wear, as well.
Here is the tournament's virtual magazine, Australia's team bag, Creamer's bag, and Beatriz Recari's patriotic team bag. Some members of Team Spain were among the players who did a live remote interview with Golf Channel, and the media center is ready to go.
Tuesday was LPGA Executive Women's Day at the course, the LPGA's Heather Daly-Donofrio took over the Tour's Social Lounge at the course and answered fans' questions, and players got dolled up for the tournament's gala dinner. Republic of Korea team member I.K. Kim is amazingly multitalented and can play the guitar, as everyone learned on "Morning Drive."
The Tour wrapped up a wonderful week in Ohio on Sunday, with 17-year-old Lydia Ko winning the Marathon Classic Presented by Owens Corning and OI. I felt bad for Laura Diaz, who led or shared the lead after each of the first three rounds, but I'm sure she enjoyed being in the hunt again.
Ko took time to write out her winner's speech, received praise from tournament staff and volunteers, and became the Tour's youngest millionaire of all time. ANZ Bank is doing a cool Lydia Ko Challenge that fans can be a part of, which is further proof that the young star has major cache globally.
So Yeon Ryu, who is representing the Republic of Korea this week, finished second after missing this birdie putt to tie on 18, but the good news is she continued her stellar play from this year.
Brooke Pancake's caddie raced a bear, Creamer was swifter of foot than Thompson and Angela Stanford, and Danielle Kang went Christmas tree shopping a few months early and had a great meal at Hollywood Casino. Creamer saw Lindsey Stirling in concert and bonded with a cute young fan, while Brittany Lincicome's caddie found a buddy of his own.
Christina Kim made friends as well, a bison got too up close and personal with Jane Park, and Brittany Lang took time to sign autographs. Defending champion Recari had a nice Sunday breakfast, Mariajo Uribe celebrated Colombia's independence day on Sunday, and Michelle Wie dyed her hair after missing the cut.
Thompson made this girl's day by giving her a signed golf glove, Morgan Pressel posed for a photo with a young fan, and LPGA players hit the $200,000 mark for donations for the Wounded Warrior project thanks to a slew of eagles in Ohio. Here is a cool article on Cristie Kerr's balanced life on and off the course.
Elsewhere, Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam played in the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe, Nev., and got to rub shoulders with the likes of NBA star Stephen Curry and got swing advice from Hall of Famer Charles Barkley. Jessica Korda experienced one of the potential perils of traveling and had an interesting night in Sarasota, Fla., while Natalie Gulbis returned to putting and enjoyed some amazing views.
Lizette Salas attended the NCLR annual brunch, Sandra Gal enjoyed a peaceful vacation in Bavaria after a solid finish at the Ladies German Open, and Lincicome was part of a charity outing in West Virginia on Monday. Suzann Pettersen got to share some time with legend Gary Player on Monday, Angela Stanford completed her tour of all of Major League Baseball's ballparks, Sophie Gustafson took a "selfie" in Prague and Kang and Lizette Salas did a pottery class.
There's never a dull moment when it comes to the LPGA and its players, and this week is a huge example of that.
Until next time….
Birdie-fest heats up in Ohio
The scoreboard workers at the Marathon Classic Presented by Owens Corning & OI may need to track down some more red numbers after the first two rounds.
LPGA players are torching the par-71, 6,512-yard Highland Meadows Golf Club again this year, collecting birdies as quick as they can in the $1.4 million event. Laura Diaz carded a career-low 62 on Thursday after posting nine birdies and no bogeys, and she holds a three-stroke advantage at 11-under heading into the weekend.
Lydia Ko is in the mix at 8-under along with Lee-Anne Pace after consecutive 67s, while Rebecca Lee-Bentham and So Yeon Ryu are at 7-under. Anyone within 10 strokes of the lead has a chance to become a factor over the weekend, so the final 36 holes should be a compelling sprint to the finish.
RICOH Women's British Open champion Mo Martin has continued her stellar play and is at 4-under heading into the weekend. Here's a very cool video chronicling the LPGA's third major of the season, and here is a photo of Martin being interviewed for Golf Channel by Hall of Famer Juli Inkster.
It has been a busy week in Ohio, especially in the social media realm. On Wednesday, Michelle Wie did a takeover of the LPGA's Instagram account, and it was a big hit.
Here is a link to the page, showing Wie's takeover, and some of her posts were hilarious.
Wie was at it early on a beautiful Wednesday morning in preparation for the tournament's pro-am, hung out with members of the National Women's Football League at the turn and goofed off with good friend Christina Kim. Lexi Thompson posted this shot of her with her group and this one of her meeting some pint-sized fans, this picture of Wie shows the cool tee markers at this week's event, and this post shows the amount of media covering the tournament.
Defending champion Beatriz Recari has a street named after her in Sylvania, Ryu didn't get the memo about which shirt to wear in the pro-am, and Wie won the Kia Most Compelling Award for June and also won the ESPY for Best Female Golfer on Wednesday night and celebrated by chowing down on some ribs. Ryann O'Toole made these girls' day, the Toledo Blade published this article about Paula Creamer, and the crowds were quite large on Thursday.
World No. 1 Stacy Lewis got her picture taken with NASCAR legend Richard Petty, Cristie Kerr tossed her golf ball to a fan after acing the sixth hole on Thursday, Kristy McPherson relaxed on Friday after making the cut at 3-under, and here's a close-up view of this week's tee markers. Brittany Lincicome took in a Toledo Mud Hens baseball game Thursday night, Jane Park recovered from a tough day on the course with some sushi, and this week's tournament got a visit from a famous bovine, who made friends with Brittany Lang.
Elsewhere, Suzann Pettersen enjoyed a relaxing day at the course with friends, Mechelle Voepel wrote this nice piece on Mo Martin for ESPNW, and Sandra Gal found a furry friend at the Ladies European Tour's German Ladies Open in her home country. Natalie Gulbis enjoyed spending the week in California, Lizette Salas continued her decorating projects at home and got some cool gifts for her birthday on Thursday, Jessica Korda finished a trip to Prague and enjoyed a snack while watching The Open Championship and Anna Nordqvist teed it up back home in beautiful Sweden. Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam was back in action this week playing with the men in the American Century Celebrity Golf Challenge.
Also, the Ice Bucket Challenge has made it to the big time. Pretty cool stuff.
Until next time….
Plenty of action in Ohio this week for LPGA players
The Tour is still buzzing about Mo Martin's huge win at the RICOH Women's British Open on Sunday (photo), and she's been a major topic of discussion this week.
Martin was the subject of one of the pre-tournament press conferences for the Marathon Classic Presented by Owens Corning and OI, and the golf world is still talking about her amazing shot (photo) on 18 that set up an eagle putt. Martin is extremely well-liked on Tour and is known for her positive attitude, fun-loving personality and quick smile, so dozens of players like MariaJo Uribe were overjoyed to see her win.
Martin was a much sought-after photo subject and received a great deal of media coverage for her win, both early in the week and on Sunday. Ron Sirak of Golf World wrote about Charley Hull shooting a 66 in the third round to get into contention.
World No. 1 Stacy Lewis returns to Toledo, where she was born, holding the top ranking, and she should have a strong gallery this week. Before looking ahead to this weekend, there is plenty to report from the weekend that was in England.
Players were busy on social media, and they helped chronicle history along the way.
It was a heck of a weekend for the Tour, with 2015 European Solheim Cup Captain Carin Koch making an appearance with the Cup, talented photographer Tristan Jones got this shot of Brittany Lang hitting out of one of Royal Birkdale's many bunkers, and Inbee Park celebrated her birthday on Saturday by taking the 54-hole lead before coming up just short of completing a career Grand Slam on Sunday.
Paula Creamer made time for fans, as she always does, LPGA Chief Communications Officer Kraig Kann attended the tournament's partner dinner on Saturday night, and some of the event's female media received some pampering. Michelle Wie dealt with missing the cut by going to London with friends for some fun and an Eminem concert, while the Mobile Weather Team was busy measuring wind gusts at the tournament on Sunday.
Kristy McPherson wore her golf shoes to watch the final round, Anna Nordqvist talked about the grind of playing in the wind in this Tweet, and Jessica Korda chronicled her gritty week on social media as well. Creamer used Flipagram to do the same, a determined Lexi Thompson even practiced in her hotel room after the final round, and Korda traveled with a gift bag courtesy of IMG Golf.
Danielle Kang is working to get to her father's level with one-handed push-ups, Creamer made the trek back to the States, and Wie read a book to help pass the time when not snapping amazing photos from the air like this. Sandra Gal found some inspiration at a gym in Munich, Germany, Kang and Mina Harigae confirmed yet again that they are just plain weird, and Korda did some sightseeing in Prague.
Lang returned to the gym on Tuesday to shake off the cobwebs from a long flight and relaxed thanks to this view from where she's staying for the week, and Cristie Kerr was proud to announce a new partnership, was included in this Forbes article and also posted a new blog for the Baltimore Sun. Uribe loves her new golf shoes, Harigae helped Kang out in a pinch, and Wie had fun with Christina Kim during a practice round.
Amanda Blumenherst had her dad on the bag on Monday for the pro-am in Ohio, Thompson looked good for the Marathon's gala dinner, and Creamer made friends there.
In other corners of the globe, Natalie Gulbis hit the gym to continue her comeback from a wrist injury on Sunday and has some new golf bags to get in the mix. Here's hoping she is able to return to action soon.
Until next time….
Martin leads RICOH Women's British Open at midway point
Third-year pro Mo Martin may be ranked just inside the top 100, but she's been No. 1 through 36 holes at the RICOH Women's British Open.
No one has navigated Royal Birkdale Golf Club and its narrow fairways better than Martin so far, and her 6-under 138 total is three strokes clear of Beatriz Recari (photo) and So Yeon Ryu heading into the final two rounds. The 31-year-old American will have to remain in top form this weekend if she is to earn her first career victory, and it will all play out on ESPN2.
Martin has just one top-10 in her LPGA career, so it would be a great story if she was to hold on down the stretch. Plently of other players would love to write their own dream scenario, and there are numerous golfers with a fighting chance heading into the weekend.
Ayako Uehara led after the first round thanks to a 4-under 68, but shot a 79 on Friday to fall out of contention. Here's a beautiful picture of her hitting an approach shot.
Players have thoroughly enjoyed their time at the scenic locale, and there have been plenty of social media posts to prove it. On Wednesday, Paula Creamer and Charley Hull were part of the tournament's announcement that next year's Open will take place at Woburn Golf Club, which is good news for the LPGA.
Creamer found the deep weeds during the first round, 2015 European Solheim Cup Captain Carin Koch is at the tournament and talked with Lady Golfer Magazine, and Dottie Pepper has been working with Hall of Famer Judy Rankin and Tom Rinaldi on ESPN2's coverage of the tournament. The weather has been pretty spectacular this week, especially for a Women's British Open, and players no doubt are enjoying that rarity.
Michelle Wie has struggled with the course this week, causing her to post this comical description of her feelings, Danielle Kang did a YouTube promo video for the LPGA's social media reach for fans, Christina Kim gave out some props to Georgia Hall on Twitter, and this sunset helped Sandra Gal deal with missing the cut. Here is a great photo of Ryu hitting out of a Royal Birkdale bunker, while Alena Sharp captured this early morning scenic shot.
In the media world, longtime New York Daily News writer Hank Gola wrote this piece about Wie, Golf World's Ron Sirak got some great insight from Dame Laura Davies, and this big news came out about Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam playing in a men's celebrity event. The Global Golf Post Daily had some RICOH coverage in it this week, and rightly so, and Alistair Tait wrote this nice Golfweek article about Karen Stupples playing in her final RICOH Women's British Open.
And that's just part of one week on the LPGA Tour! Gotta love it!
Until next time….
LPGA players getting 'Royal' treatment in England
The mystique and majesty of the RICOH Women's British Open is upon us, and LPGA stars are ready and raring to go in England.
Royal Birkdale Golf Club in Southport, Lancashire, sets a stellar stage for 72 holes of links golf this week, and the top female golfers on the planet are primed and eager to chase after the LPGA's third major of the season. They have enjoyed themselves in the UK while preparing for what awaits on Thursday, and social media has been all a flurry as a result.
Scotland's Catriona Matthew participated in the Queen's Baton Relay on Saturday, Paula Creamer was one of a number of players who took to the skies on the way to the tournament, and Christina Kim enjoyed this awesome view from the Dales while on a sightseeing trip. Sandra Gal arrived on Saturday, Angela Stanford took in a Mets' baseball game, and Rebecca Lee-Bentham did a rock climbing workout.
Jenny Shin picked up her courtesy car, Michelle Wie said hi to England, and Tiffany Joh captured this shot of Austin Ernst and Brooke Pancake dealing with jet lag. Beatriz Recari was part of the Allianz Golf Camp at St. Andrews over the weekend, Gal had great weather during a Sunday practice round, and Danielle Kang found the driving range along with Lexi Thompson (video).
Wie was practicing her unmistakable putting stroke at Royal Birkdale on Sunday and did her best Dr. Who impression with friends, World War II buff Dottie Pepper did some historical sightseeing, and Cristie Kerr wrote a guest column on international competition for the Baltimore Sun. The television trucks arrived on Monday, Mariajo Uribe took this cool shot of herself in front of the tournament's big board, and Kristy McPherson enjoyed a burrito brought all the way from New Mexico and found an interesting statue outside the hotel.
Anna Nordqvist's photos show just how scenic this week's course is, Wie played the role of spectator during the Monday qualifier, and this is a photo you don't see every day. Golf World's Ron Sirak shared this great scenic photo, Kang showed off her flexibility, and Karen Stupples stopped by Sky Sports' Shot Centre to give some tips.
Fans can still vote for Creamer's 75-foot putt to win HSBC Women's Champions in Singapore as "Best Play" in this year's ESPY awards, Jessica Korda teed off near an IMG Golf banner, and defending champion Stacy Lewis talked about her 2013 triumph in the media center on Tuesday. Wie was there for a press conference of her own, Brittany Lang posted photos like this, this and this one of Southport, and Sirak wrote this piece about Wie and Lewis.
Thompson and her pro-am group won Tuesday's event, photographer extraordinaire Tristan Jones snapped this sweet shot of Carlota Ciganda teeing off on the first tee, and Pancake visited a famous pub in Liverpool. Kang and Creamer modeled some interesting hoodies, ESPN aired this fabulous and insightful video piece by Gene Wojciechowski with Wie in preparation of televising the tournament, and Dame Laura Davies and Sophie Gustafson are now members at Royal Birkdale.
Sports Illustrated's Alan Shipnuck wrote this piece about Wie for Golf.com, and Ciganda watched Germany dispatch Brazil from the World Cup with a group of friends.
In other news, legend Arnold Palmer kicked off the countdown for the 2015 U.S. Women's Open since he is serving as the event's honorary chairman, and fellow Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam spoke eloquently about what it means to her to have her name on the Rolex Annika Major Award. Pretty cool stuff there.
Until next time….
Festive week off for LPGA players
As everyone across the country gathered together with loved ones and friends, fired up the barbecue grills and basked in the patriotic glow of fireworks, LPGA players did so while enjoying a week off from competition before turning their attention to the third major of the year.
Here's a look at some of the social media highlights from the last few days.
Karin Sjodin shared this amazing scenic shot, So Yeon Ryu did some pilates at this gym on Wednesday, and the LPGA posted this great story about Nicole Castrale's outside-the-ropes hero. Amanda Blumenherst had this great view from the ballpark in Detroit on Wednesday and this one from Oakland on Thursday, 2015 European Solheim Cup Captain Carin Koch played 18 holes with Women & Golf magazine, and Lexi Thompson played in the rain and wore this Puma gear to the gym.
Hall of Famer Karrie Webb teed it up with some lucky guys, Kristy McPherson has plenty of new, white shoes to use, and Michelle Wie lost a doggie paddle race…to an actual dog. Wie enjoyed her pool time after a practice session on Wednesday, Alena Sharp had a furry practice buddy, and MariaJo Uribe sipped some fine wine.
Lizette Salas added some living room décor, Brittany Lincicome experimented with science at home, and Brittany Lang got some help from her pooch while putting. Nicole Hage was part of a Lexus photo shoot, Felicity Johnson was in England doing some sightseeing, and Wie gave a master class as part of her role as Youth Olympics ambassador.
Wie also practiced hitting low shots with her driver in preparation for next week's RICOH Women's British Open, Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam had a healthy breakfast on Thursday, and Lydia Ko showed wisdom beyond her years in this article on GolfWRX.com. Gulbis got her mother some new Taylor Made clubs, Jessica Korda loves her new Adidas kicks and had one last practice session in the U.S. before heading overseas, and Christina Kim enjoyed a nice drive through the English countryside.
Gulbis sold fireworks on Thursday to benefit the Las Vegas-area Boys & Girls Club she's associated with, Mina Harigae caught some video of a wicked dust storm, and Vicky Hurst was part of a beach training session. Danielle Kang had fun at a night range practice session, Wie practiced a bit on the Fourth of July, and players like Gulbis posted photos like this one to celebrate the special holiday.
Salas went on an Independence Day hike with Kang and others, Suzann Pettersen did this interview for the "GW My Best Shot" series, and Na Yeon Choi played golf with her caddie at Royal Portrush. Wie set off some fireworks, as did Paula Creamer, while Gulbis stuck to sparklers.
The "Ice Bucket Challenge" continued with Sandra Gal (video), Becky Morgan (video), Kim (video), Blair O'Neal (video), and Charley Hull and Camilla Lennarth. Mo Martin upped the ante, McPherson added a dive to her challenge, and Salas had some help from above to complete her challenge.
Lang did the challenge and called out LPGA Commissioner Mike Whan – who may or may not have been aware he was challenged – Jane Park stepped up as well, and Lincicome completed it in the dark. Koch upstaged everyone by using the actual Solheim Cup to finish the challenge,
The Tour's great news continued on Thursday, when Shanshan Feng attended an announcement in Beijing about a purse increase to $2.1 million for the Reignwood LPGA Classic. The defending champion helped kick off the tournament's second year in style.
Next week, everything intensifies a bit as the Tour hosts its third of five majors of 2014 with a stop in England. It should be a heck of a week!
Until next time….
Plenty of activity for Tour players during week off
Stacy Lewis' victory at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship Presented by P&G on Sunday was the latest in a long line of awesome storylines the Tour has enjoyed in 2014.
As the players catch their breath with some time off this week before heading to the RICOH Women's British Open, where Lewis is the defending champ, they have been active in a number of pursuits. Here's a sampling of what's been going on, as well as a look back to last weekend, in the latest installment of "Twitter Theater."
Over the weekend, Natalie Gulbis did an autograph signing for her sponsor Michelob Ultra before catching a Dierks Bentley concert with family and friends, Hall of Famer Juli Inkster was at the same concert, and so was Karen Stupples and Becky Morgan (photo). Brittany Lang found some short fans for a picture pose, Brittany Lincicome also made time for fans, and so did Morgan Pressel.
The second round had to be completed on Sunday morning due to rain, with Michelle Wie holding the 36-hole lead and sharing her success with her standard bearer via a fist bump and a young fan with a low-five. Wie shot a 73 on Sunday, while Lewis' seven-footer for birdie on the final hole gave her a 65, her 11th career LPGA victory and helped her avoid a playoff.
Lewis posed with Arkansas Rep. Steve Womack after her big win, took a "selfie" and received this rousing tribute from fans. Here's a great shot of Pinnacle Country Club at sunset.
The lovely So Yeon Ryu celebrated her birthday on Sunday by shooting a 2-under 69 to finish fifth, Lexi Thompson put in some time on the range after missing the cut, and Wie flew home in style. Lydia Ko made some new friends in Arkansas, Danielle Kang learned how to ride a Vespa scooter, Sandra Gal signed autographs during the tournament, and Wie turned to painting to help her battle insomnia on Sunday night.
Players participated in the "Ice Bucket Challenge," in which they dared each other to douse themselves with ice-cold water in a 24-hour period or pay $100 to the other's favorite charity. Jessica Korda took Wie up on her challenge, Lewis gave in to Wie's challenge and then threw down the gauntlet for Ko (who did it) and Hall of Famer Karrie Webb, who also did it and then challenged Sarah Kemp and Inkster.
Korda called out Suzann Pettersen, who did her duty and then turned the focus to Paula Creamer, who obliged her and called out Laura Davies, Pressel and Justin Rose. Although it was a small "bucket," Thompson completed the challenge as well and turned her sights on Austin Ernst and Jaye Marie Green, while Jennie Lee was up to the challenge of Jodi Ewart.
The challenge just went on and on and on and on, and it'll be interesting to see how this progresses in the future.
Ryu found a healthy airport breakfast on Monday morning and a tasty snack later that day, Gulbis visited Winged Foot Golf Club in New York, and Wie spent some time at the pool. Pressel is auctioning off a signed golf bag, Mariajo Uribe can practice in her back yard, and Alena Sharp was thrilled to help the Wounded Warrior project and get this nice pin flag for recording two eagles in Arkansas.
Creamer didn't play in Arkansas, so she had time to demonstrate how she prepares to lay out by the pool. Fans can vote for Wie as Sports Woman of the Month on SkySports.com by going here, and Yani Tseng had fun hosting the Yani Tseng Invitational Presented by the Swinging Skirts on Tuesday, an AJGA event enjoyed by all.
Creamer was training hard on Monday, Wie enjoyed some R&R on the beach with her dog when she wasn't busy filming a piece with ESPN that included a look at some of her artwork, and Lang was in Branson, Mo., to take in views like this and enjoy a fish pond at a special golf course, visit the in-laws and do some fishing and take in a concert with her hubby.
Pressel did this LPGA player spotlight video and talked about how to eat gluten-free, while Wie got some sweet patriotic Nikes just in time for the Fourth of July and wore a soccer jersey while watching the USA take on Belgium in the World Cup on Tuesday. Fans can vote for Creamer's 75-foot putt from earlier this year for an ESPY, and Lee enjoyed some new Cutter & Buck clothing.
If this is any indication how the off week is going, next week's major championship week in England should be a hoot!

I know living at the shelter is only a temporary situation for me but I cannot wait to find my forever home! I was dropped off at ACCT by a nice person because I was wondering around as a stray. Now I am ready to meet my new family, could it be you?
I am friendly with the people and dogs that I meet. If you have a dog already bring them to ACCT to meet meet me! Heck, bring the whole family! I want to make sure I am the right fit for you.
My buddies at ACCT are teaching me the basics. I walk well on a harness and I love practicing my new tricks and commands! I will have something to show you when you get here. Although I am learning a lot, one of my favorite pasttimes is sunggling. Do you have a favorite TV show? I would love to watch it with you!
Effie is a part of the Pen Pal program! Sh has not one but two Pen Pals who are volunteers committed to his well being while he lives at ACCT. Effie's Pen Pals are dedicated to helping her learn basic commands, keeping him stress-free while in the shelter, and market her to potential foster parents and adopters. If you want to know more about Effie or see if she is a good fit for you, please contact his Pen Pals at
ashearin @vet. upenn.edu and email@example.com
They have lots of great things to tell you.
Act quickly to adopt Effie. Pets at this Shelter may be held for only a short time.
Other Pets at Animal Care & Control Team
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Effie, a Philadelphia Labrador Retriever/Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever/Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) for sale in Philadelphia, or seeking a Labrador Retriever/Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) dog from a breeder in Philadelphia.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Philadelphia already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Philadelphia breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever/Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) breeders who help with Labrador Retriever/Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Philadelphia paves the way for another one to be saved.

Every year I make a list for my birthday. Then I try to cross off as many things as I can. I'm always surprised by how many I do achieve; often it's the outliers and far fetched ones that end up miraculously manifesting. Others seem to show up again and again as works in progress. I'm never discouraged by the things I don't finish, for I often find myself looking back on previous lists, and realize that though something maybe didn't happen in a particular year–many do happen sooner or later.
There's a chapter in my book about writing lists. I think there's magic in the process. Listing for something makes it so much more likely to become real. And every year I'm reminded of this as I've had friends and strangers email me with opportunities to make items on my list come true.

We choosed this becasuse the high traffic capacity and it seems to keep the promises.
@ Augustus you don't need so write this three times
@ Putte thanks for letting us know! Great job!
Can there be an update for the "Social Media Support" feature to add Pin Interest as another form of social media sharing option to our articles and what not? I think it'd be a great way to modernize a great theme like this with it's fullest potential. Definitely love the theme, thanks ThemeSector!
Is there a way to, on the homepage, just show the latest posts listed downwards? (no other category)
Thanks, Daven
I'm finding terrible and totally unacceptable problems to edit and program the "Broadway" theme. The theme seems to be sort of incomplete. We demand that to be fixed immediately or I will cancel the payment.
What is it happening?
1. I'm not being able to work with both menu, I cannot even develop the superior menu that was supposedly to be on top.
2. The footer looks to be corrupted. The screen visualization is NOT at all configurated.
How and when are you gonna be able to solve those problems? We are using the theme to develop a work for one of our clients, so it's extremely URGENT !
@ Californiaa Thanks for the feedback, at the moment this is not in the pipeline but we will consider it!
@ WunDaii You can always use the blog page as your homepage!
@ wepost Hi wepost, first of all please remain polite and dont' "demand".
Before we will agree to check if there is an update needed we will have to figure out that the problem is really on our side and not on yours.
Maybe you just set the theme up wrong, because as you can see we have never had such a terrible feedback like yours and the theme has a 5 star rating. So honestly, I doubt there is a problem with the theme, especially not being incomplete or corrupt.
Please head over to our ticket system and open a ticket where you will show me your website url and attach your wp-admin login details.
Make sure you read the entire documentation as well.
PS: If you cancel the payment you will get blocked by themeforest forever That's how the marketplace works, feel free to check the policies.
All the best,
Very nice theme, I really want to buy it… when do you think this theme will be responsive.
Also can you do the top Product Slider To Use 'Auto Scroll' on your next update…
Theme is nice but the service in the support forum sucks! If you have CSS knowledge and know PHP and HTML this is a good theme for you but if you don't you you will have issues with the support people. To help me they have asked me three times to enter my purchased code to answered a question about a missing attachement page for images. All wordpress themes come with an image.php page for you pictures to show in an attachment page instead of the lightbox this one doesn't have one and the owner or who ever it is that runs the forum can't tell me where it is after entering the purchase code three time.
Very disapointing.
Hi there, I really love this theme. Is there a photo gallery page? I lvoe the entire layout but need a photo gallery for my website. Please could you confirm before I buy the theme. Thanks. Katherine
Need help a newbie with WP and I would like to build the site to look like the demo. Any manual that I can go through?
@ buju thanks for your feedback! I don't think "responsive" is in the pipeline at the moment.
@ eeb1 the reason for this is mainly that we have to verify that you actually purchased the item. If you refuse to enter the correct purchase code in order to verify your legal purchase I cannot help you. Sorry that's the rules
Anyhow, since I see that you are verified here I can tell you that I am working for three elite authors at the moment and none of them have one theme with an image.php file
I also was an author on here and did never create such a thing myself since the themes automatically use either archive.php or attachment.php
@ kapcha There are tons of plugins out there for galleries, also WordPress has a native feature you can use without even installing a plugin
@ nitepiper Please open a ticket in our ticket system, I can send you demo content
Hey I have two questions, 1) When I upload my own logo, the banner ad at the top gets thrown underneath the logo, which is weird. 2) Is there a way to take off the author tag and date posted on the posts on the homepage? I would rather not display that seeing how my name says, "admin."
have this theme a mobile version?
Hi there, On the home page when I enable "Show Featured Slider" all the images come up on the screen full size where they should be thumbnails beneath the slider. Any Ideas?
I'm having the same issue as brownd92. This theme looks fabulous but the image resizing doesn't work. Also, the 728×90 banner gets pushed down behind the menu area. Hope these are simple fixes!
Please let me know how to get the demo content for this theme?
Last time i bought a theme from themesector(boulevard theme) , the fonts messed up in firefox when used along with CDN network and its plugin (any cache plugin).
Is this broadway theme the same ? Anyone tested this in Firefox with any CDN plugin? Hello admin will you check and tell ?


text: Hi im in the process of droping my engine in my 95 formula. I have taken out the drive shaft and the torque arm as well as the driveshaft yoke. The other day i had to move my car out of the garage and the car wont roll forward. So i looked under while someone else pushed and i saw the diff kinda twisting with the movement of the wheels so ifigured i had to put the torque arm back in. I put the torque arm back in and now it just wont roll forward at all but it will roll backwards without problem. I am very confused why its doing this. I also took off the diff cover and there was no metal filings in the fluid and i just wiped my finger on the bottom of the axle housing and still no filings. So my question is why wont my car roll forward???? I have made sure that my ebrake is off so i have absolutly no idead why the car wont roll forward. Any help is appreciated

Harry: It only takes two big names
Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp believes two world-class new signings would make his team genuine contenders for the Premier League title. The 63-year-old, who took over at White Hart Lane two years ago with Spurs bottom of the table on two points from eight games, last term led his side to a fourth-place finish and a Champions League spot. And he thinks a couple more high-quality additions would help the north London club take the next step. Quoted in several newspapers, he said: "I think Tottenham may be one or two big signings away from being a team that could win the championship. "One or two players in the right positions - and I'm talking about two top, top players in the right positions. "If we could go and do that I think Tottenham are a team that could win the championship in a couple of years. "This squad is just so full of talent anyway, players who have made their mark and (chairman) Daniel Levy has done a great job backing my judgment and improving the squad and the club, that I really believe we're not far away from that level." He added: "We've got a lot of players here who could play for any club," he added. "There are an awful lot of them who could. You've seen their performances. That includes the left-back (Benoit Assou-Ekotto) who you don't hear much about but has everything to be as good a left-back as there is around. "He's a fantastic player, Benoit. When he's on it, he's an unbelievable talent."

[P3.262] Adverse Event Profile of USL255 in Patients with Refractory Partial-Onset Seizures: The PREVAIL Study
Robert Hogan,1Stephan Arnold,2Toufic Fakhoury,3Bob Anders4
1Saint Louis, MO, USA, 2München, Germany, 3Lexington, KY, USA, 4Maple Grove, MN, USA
OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the adverse event profile of USL255, once-daily extended-release (XR) topiramate, in adults with refractory partial-onset seizures (POS).
BACKGROUND: Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) affecting the central nervous system can be associated with antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment. Immediate-release (IR) topiramate is an AED that is efficacious for the management of epilepsy, but requires twice-daily dosing. USL255 can be given once daily, is pharmacokinetically equivalent to IR topiramate at the same daily dose, and has reduced plasma fluctuations, which may result in decreased incidence of TEAEs caused by high peak drug levels.
DESIGN/METHODS: In this double-blind, phase 3 study (PREVAIL; NCT01142193), patients taking 1-3 concomitant AEDs were randomized to placebo (n=125) or USL255 (n=124), titrated over 3 weeks (50 mg/week), and maintained at 200 mg/day for 8 weeks. Incidence of spontaneously-reported TEAEs was assessed by study phase and severity. Neurocognitive adverse events were also summarized.
RESULTS: Overall, the incidence of TEAEs was 66% with USL255 and 50% with placebo treatment (P=.015), and the majority were mild-to-moderate in intensity. A higher proportion of patients reported TEAE onset during the 3-week titration phase than during the first or last 4 weeks of the maintenance phase. Somnolence, dizziness, paraesthesia, weight decrease, fatigue, and headache were the most commonly reported TEAEs. The proportion of patients reporting a neurocognitive/neuropsychiatric TEAE (eg, memory impairment, psychomotor slowing) was less than 3% in both treatment groups, with the exception of disturbance in attention (2.4% [USL255]; 3.2% [placebo]). A majority of these events resolved before completion of maintenance. No deaths were reported and none of the serious TEAEs with USL255 were considered treatment related (USL255, 1.6%; placebo, 1.6%).
CONCLUSIONS: USL255 demonstrated a favorable adverse event profile in patients with refractory POS with low incidence of neurocognitive adverse events, suggesting USL255 may provide a significant benefit to patients with epilepsy.

Personal Loans
We all have different needs. That's why Farmers & Merchants Bank provides a full range of personal loans with flexible terms and competitive rates. Our loans offer convenience and fast, friendly service from knowledgeable professionals.
Consider an installment loan to finance a new car, go on a dream vacation or indulge yourself with a luxury purchase by taking out a secured or unsecured installment loan.
What options and advantages do our installment loans offer?
- A Farmers & Merchants Bank installment loan can offer you a structured loan to be paid back in a specified time.
- Your loan term can be for a few months or a few years.
- Obtain competitive rates that reward your strong payment history.
- Since all Farmers & Merchants Bank Installment Loans are simple interest loans, you pay interest only on the outstanding balance. You can reduce your interest cost if you choose to repay early.
Auto Loans
Financing for the vehicle that you need - anything on four wheels. It's quick and easy to get the new or used vehicle that you've had your eye on. We have financing for new current year models and older models too, with convenient terms. Automatic payment deduction from your Farmers & Merchants Bank Checking account makes your payments very convenient and you wont forget by accident!
Unsecured Loans
A Farmers & Merchants Bank fixed rate loan is the ideal way to finance a one-time expense and give you the benefit of a fixed monthly payment. The minimum loan size on these loans is $2,000, and the interest rate is fixed.
Lending programs, including rates and terms, are subject to change without notice.
Farmers & Merchants Bank makes loans without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, or age (provided the applicant has the capacity to contract).
Home Equity Financing
If you're like most people, your home is your biggest asset. We offer you the opportunity to put the equity in your home to work for you. Updating your home, consolidating bills, investment opportunities, or paying school tuition are a few of the many important reasons to borrow. When one comes your way, choose a fixed rate Home Equity Loan or a variable rate Home Equity Line of Credit. The Home Equity Loan gives you a lump sum for a major expenditure, and the Line of Credit makes ready cash available when you need it. In addition, you may be able to cash in on real tax savings. Because your Farmers & Merchants Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit is secured by your home, the interest you pay may be tax deductible! Consult your tax advisor regarding the deductibility of interest.
Home Equity Lines of Credit
Cash on hand, whenever you need it! With a Farmers & Merchants Bank Home Equity Line of Credit, you'll receive the advantages of a loan with the flexibility of a reusable line of credit. Apply only once and use it over and over:
- The maximum amount you can borrow depends on the appraised value of your home and the balance of your first mortgage. If your first mortgage is also with Farmers & Merchants, we can lend even more.
- Instant access by writing a check anytime you like (subject to terms of your line), or use a special debit card to make purchases.
- Save interest. Compare our low rate with your present credit cards. You'll find our variable rate much lower. Plus, current federal tax laws make home equity credit one of the few remaining loans with tax deductible interest. Consult your tax advisor for your individual situation.
- Our interest rates are variable, and are tied to the Prime Rate.
- Payments are low and we even offer an "interest only" option.
- No points. No application fee. And ask about special programs offerings no closing costs.
- Interest rate protection -- Farmers & Merchants Bank offers a lifetime cap on increases in your interest rate.
Home Equity Loans

As you are completing the Consumer Loan Application, please gather up the following documents, which will speed along the processing of your request:

Flood Insurance:
If it is determined that your property is in a flood zone, you will be required to carry flood insurance in the same amount of coverage as required for hazard insurance ($250,000 maximum).
To apply for a Farmers & Merchants Bank home equity loan or line of credit, contact us and we'll start the process. Or, visit your local branch office to speak with a loan officer.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Romeo!
Facts about Romeo
- Breed: Chihuahua
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Romeo's Info...
I am already neutered, purebred, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
Romeo is a sweet 4 year old, less than 10 pound, male chi. He loves to cuddle and snuggles with me and my 2 female dogs. Romeo, like most chi's get nervous in new situations, but once he is comfortable, is full of life and personality. He is doing well with his house training. He needs a secure fenced in yard. If you are interested in Romeo, please email him at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 270-684-4787.
Other Pets at Saving Paws Animal Rescue of KY
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Romeo, a Owensboro Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Owensboro, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in Owensboro.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Owensboro already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Owensboro breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Owensboro paves the way for another one to be saved.

Hi, welcome to my website!
This website is hopefully just a starting point. As my favorite professor Patrick Winston says, you should talk to people! If you're interested in any of this stuff you see here (or fiercely opposed to anything), then I'd probably be interested in what you have to say! Shoot me an email at email@example.com. (When you're deciding whether or not to talk to people, you should keep three things in mind.) The picture is from California, by the way. |

Attachment 5407A little late but I have been busy, inspired by taminca's really cool post about their new Aeronaut and accessories I decided to order a few more goodies with the intention of taming the "tech" pocket of my Aeronaut. It was beginning to look like a Best Buy exploded in there. I even carried over the wasabi/ultraviolet colour scheme.
Attachment 5408
I also ordered a black dyneema/wasabi side effect to use as a toiletries kit as my new toothbrush's travel case doesn't fit in the 3D organizer cubes. I knew I would miss the ability to hang it up so I ordered a hanger like the 3D cubes use. My shipment arrived just as I was about to head out of town for the week so I quickly shuffled the gear that needed to be shuffled into new accessories and fabricated this part from the hook and a utility key strap
Attachment 5409
Excuse the horrible red stitching, I was in a hurry and it was what my machine already had loaded in it. I don't think Kieu needs to fear for her job...

- History
For 36 years, the College Senate has guided, informed, and decisively acted upon issues of primary concern to SUNY Buffalo State's academic community. In the early 1970s, the College Senate evolved from a triumvirate comprised of a Faculty Council, Student Council, and an Administrative Council to its current form including stronger student representation and expansive discourse between administration and faculty.
- Status
As the key consultive directorate on campus, the College Senate is guided by a strictly adhered to set of standing rules and derives its authority from the College By-Laws. Simply stated, the College Senate is designed to provide organizational structure for issues concerning the college and act as a forum, agent, and advocate for faculty, staff, and students.
- Organization and Structure
Membership in the Senate and the organizational structure of the Senate are specified in the College By-Laws. The College Senate's roster presently includes the President and Provost of the college, members of the faculty and professional staff, representation from each of the four schools, a delegate from the library, one member from the support staff, 12 students, and two non-voting members appointed by the President of the college.

You're probably wondering what you're looking at right now. This is what Miss USA, Erin Brady, wore for the Miss Universe national costume competition, which took place on Sunday in Moscow. (The actual pageant happens this Saturday.) Since Brady hit the stage as the "Miss USA transformer," made by Martin Izquierdo, a costume designer for Victoria's Secret, the look has been called everything from a "travesty" to something preschoolers made from "some left over washing-up liquid bottles, yogurt pots, cardboard boxes and a lot of glitter." Oof. That's a lot of vitriol for a pageant costume. Keep reading »

TagMan Consumer Privacy Guidelines
TagMan facilitates data management for website owners and provides them with tools to manage their own data collection and privacy practices. As such, TagMan is a 'data processor' not a 'data owner', meaning that we do not own or sell any data which passes through the TagMan system. Our clients are passionate about protecting consumer privacy and being open and transparent with their customers. To that end, we encourage you to review the following guidelines, which explain how we manage online data and the controls we offer to help our clients and consumers manage how information is collected and used.
TagMan helps its clients to manage their own data collection and privacy practices, but does not control these practices. As such, we encourage users to review the privacy policies on the websites they visit to discover how each collects, stores and uses customer data. Remember that all website owners have obligations to comply with applicable privacy guidelines and legislation
However, TagMan does collect data on its own website TagMan.com and publishes a privacy policy for how we use this data.
TagMan provides functionality to our clients so that they can offer consumers specific opt-outs according to how data will be collected, used and/or shared with 3rd parties. These allow our clients' customers to opt-out from 1st party cookies (cookies placed on users' computers by the owners of the sites they visit) or 3rd-party cookies (cookies placed on users' computer by other companies via the sites they visit). Sites may also operate on an opt-in only basis, allowing them to collect and use customer data only where they have explicit permission to do so
TagMan also provides functionality that allows clients to determine for themselves how long they retain consumer data according to their own data policies, information on which we recommend they make freely available in their respective privacy policies.
To provide this functionality, the TagMan cookie does not expire, though it may be deleted in the usual way. This allows us and our clients to retain users' opt-out preferences. However all data relating to consumer behavior, for example, is deleted from our servers three months after collection
Because we only process data on behalf of the client, we do not own or sell any data which passes through the TagMan system. We may store some data for a limited period of time in order to facilitate reporting to our clients but we regularly purge all consumer and campaign data from our systems. The only piece of data which the TagMan system applies to your data record is our Global User ID (GUID) which allows our clients to unify data from various systems into one single view of your anonymized online marketing behavior. Our clients may instruct us to share this data with other parties, and we do this only on the basis that they have suitable consent to do so.
Your TagMan settings, including any opt-out records, are held in browser cookies which do not expire. As such, if you delete our cookie, your opt-out preference will be lost and a new cookie and GUID would be assigned to you should you next be exposed to a TagMan tag on a website you may visit.
TagMan offers clients the option to use 1st party tracking cookies on their website. If the client selects this option then the data stored in the 3rd party TagMan cookie which is specific to that client is synchronized with a 1st party cookie. Each client's TagMan cookie is stored under a path, with the pathname indicating the specific client. In this way the 3rd party can be considered 1st party data storage.
TagMan provides tracking services via a number of domains, primarily tagman.com and levexis.com. For the sake of transparency, any such TagMan tracking domain redirects to the TagMan.com website, meaning it is always identifiable as belonging to us.
Where applicable, we adhere to the IAB's Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising, which provide for consumer notice and choice in the collection of information about users' interests and activities
Some of our clients may work with data companies to increase campaign targeting capabilities by anonymously exchanging data via synchronized cookie IDs. In order to achieve this, TagMan maintains a list of cookie IDs for our clients' site visitors in a 1st party cookie from the client website (this is known as the 'cookie dictionary'). We are then able to pass targeting data between data companies from server to server rather than via the cookies and tags in your browser. In this way we share anonymous information by allowing our clients to associate shared anonymous profile information with their own cookie on your computer. You can opt out from this data sharing here. The campaign data we collect on behalf of our clients is specific to each client and is not shared between clients. This campaign data may include search keyword data (both from external search referrals and from site search on the client's website).
We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards that are designed to protect the security and integrity of collected information, to protect against anticipated threats and hazards, and to protect against loss, misuse, alteration or destruction Although there can be no guarantee that these safeguards will work against all threats, we believe they provide reasonable protection.
TagMan provides a universal opt-out for consumers, allowing them to opt out from all tracking, not just by TagMan, but by our clients through the TagMan system Click here to opt out from all data collection via the TagMan system.
To choose which 3rd party companies you share data with, both within and without the TagMan platform, we recommend you visit PrivacyChoice To see which companies tags are in the web pages you visit, we recommend the Ghostery browser plug-in from BetterAdvertising.
For more information about managing browser cookies, please visit AboutCookies.org. If you are generally concerned about your online privacy then we recommend you visit the National Advertising Initiative NAI and the Digital Advertising Alliance DAA.

You have so many pretty passies! Did you ever get your zone9tropicals blue ginger to bloom? Mine bloomed but it is more of a light lavender than blue I think...hope they sent the right kind. The sanguinea one has nice pink red foilage and a dark reddish pink flower/inflo. |
I was just going to email you about the globba. Mine appears to be solid white. The inflo just emerged and the individual blooms haven't opened but they are stark white. I'll wait until they open and if they aren't blue I'm sending a pic to Wayne. |
OOO!! Lots of Passi's at your house.. NICE!!!!! |
- Posted by MsMorningSong 9 (My Page) on Tue, Jul 26, 11 at 20:13
Oh, they are so lovely Karyn. ANd they all look so healthy too. DO you use any fertilizer with them, or special soil mixes? |
So beautiful! I just started the base for a lasagna garden. Going to get myself into brugs. *g* But these are so beautiful! thank you for sharing them! :) I did get blessed with a white poppy today. It was in a butterfly mix I bought and sprinkled in a ratty rocky area. Heh ~Tina Marie |
I have about 25 varieties of passifloras and don't feed any of them a lot, maybe every 6 weeks but they do get extra potassium. The decaloba and passiflora group bloom the easiest here. I have the most difficulty with the tasconias because they are cloudforest and like the same conditions as the Sphaerocarpium brug group. Of course the tasconias are my favorites. lol At least they will bloom unlike 2/3's of the cold group brugs. I've killed too many vulcanicolas (terribly heat sensitive). Sanguineas will grow but not bloom. The arborea actually does alright and seems the most heat tolerant of the group. Tina I can include some passie seeds I recently harvested with the others I'm sending. Remember that they need winter protection in your zone. You might want to invest in a small grow light system for the winter : ) |
Karyn, You are such a sweetheart! I will request that as a gift from the family for me. Hehe! I will be sure to pass the gift of seeds you are sharing on to another like you are doing for me Karyn. I promise you that. :) |

Karyn Did I notice that you have blue ginger that has flowered I am a Canadian but have a home, six months of the year, I am there, in FLorida. I have Blue Ginger in the garden there and I know it has bloomed as I see the remains of the bloom and plant when I get down in November. Never have seen the bloom |
Beautiful Karyn. Where do you grow all these passis? Do you have them in pots or in ground? I had a seedling of pasi Incarnata alba from last year but it died while I was gone. I had left 2 seeds and I planted them. Hope they will germinate. |

Dress up or dress down -- that's the calling of the Kenna. The luxurious black genuine suede upper provides a lovely contrast to the brown oiled leather foot, top cuff, and accent strips. The Freudenberg German-made waterproof/breathable membrane assures all weather comfort that lasts, rather than a waterproof coating that can wear out. Also features a rugged, grippy outsole and cute brass button accent.
