Connecting RStudio and MySQL Docker Containers – an example using the ergast db
building on Dockerising Open Data Databases – First Fumblings and my Book Extras – Data Files, Code Files and a Dockerised Application, I just figured out how to get the ergast db into a MySQL docker container and then query it from RStudio:
- Download and unzip the f1db.sql.gz file to f1db.sql
- install these docker-mysql-scripts
- run boot2docker
- from the boot2docker shell, start up a MySQL server (ergastdb) with password f1: dmysql-server ergastdb f1 By default, this exposes port 3306
- create an new empty database (f1db): dmysql-create-database ergastdb f1db
- add the ergast data to it: dmysql-import-database ergastdb /path/to/ergastdb/f1db.sql --database f1db
- fire up a copy of RStudio, in this case using my psychemedia/wranglingf1data container, linking it to the MySQL database which has the alias db: docker run --name f1djd -p 8788:8787 --link ergastdb:db -d psychemedia/wranglingf1data
- run boot2docker ip to find where RStudio is running (IPADDRESS) and in your browser go to: http://IPADDRESS:8788, logging in with username rstudio and password rstudio
- in RStudio, import the RMySQL library: library(RMySQL)
- in RStudio, connect to the database: con=dbConnect(MySQL(),user='root',password='f1',host='db',port=3306,dbname='f1db')
- in RStudio, run a test query: dbQuery(con,'SHOW TABLES');
I guess what I need to do now is pull the various bits into another script to make it a one-liner, perhaps with a few switches? For example, to create the database if it doesn't exist, to download the ergast database file automatically, to populate the database for the first time, or update it with a more recent copy of the database, to fire up both containers and make sure they are appropriately linked etc. This would dramatically simplify things for use in the context of the Wrangling F1 Data With R book, for example. (If you beat me to it, please post details in the comments below.)
PS Hmm…. seems I get a UTF-8 encoding issue:
Not sure if this is with the database, or the RMySQL connector? Anyone got any ideas of a fix?
Ah ha – sort of via SO:
Running dbGetQuery(con,'SET NAMES utf8;') before querying seems to do the trick…
Calculating Churn in Seasonal Leagues
One of the things I wanted to explore in the production of the Wrangling F1 Data With R book was the extent to which I could draw on published academic papers for inspiration in exploring the the various results and timing datasets.
In a chapter published earlier this week, I explored the notion of churn, as described in Mizak, D, Neral, J & Stair, A (2007) The adjusted churn: an index of competitive balance for sports leagues based on changes in team standings over time. Economics Bulletin, Vol. 26, No. 3 pp. 1-7, and further appropriated by Berkowitz, J. P., Depken, C. A., & Wilson, D. P. (2011). When going in circles is going backward: Outcome uncertainty in NASCAR. Journal of Sports Economics, 12(3), 253-283.
In a competitive league, churn is defined as:
where is the churn in team standings for year , is the absolute value of the -th team's change in finishing position going from season to season , and is the number of teams.
The adjusted churn is defined as an indicator with the range 0..1 by dividing the churn, , by the maximum churn, . The value of the maximum churn depends on whether there is an even or odd number of competitors:
Berkowitz et al. reconsidered churn as applied to an individual NASCAR race (that is, at the event level). In this case, is the position of driver at the end of race , is the starting position of driver at the beginning of that race (that is, race ) and is the number of drivers participating in the race. Once again, the authors recognise the utility of normalising the churn value to give an *adjusted churn* in the range 0..1 by dividing through by the maximum churn value.
Using these models, I created churn function of the form:
is.even = function(x) x %% 2 == 0 churnmax=function(N) if (is.even(N)) return(N/2) else return(((N*N)-1)/(2*N)) churn=function(d) sum(d)/length(d) adjchurn = function(d) churn(d)/churnmax(length(d))
and then used it to explore churn in a variety of contexts:
- comparing grid positions vs race classifications across a season (cf. Berkowitz et al.)
- churn in Drivers' Championship standings over several seasons (cf. Mizak et al.)
- churn in Constructors' Championship standings over several seasons (cf. Mizak et al.)
For example, in the first case, we can process data from the ergast database as follows:
library(DBI) ergastdb = dbConnect(RSQLite::SQLite(), './ergastdb13.sqlite') q=paste('SELECT round, name, driverRef, code, grid, position, positionText, positionOrder FROM results rs JOIN drivers d JOIN races r ON rs.driverId=d.driverId AND rs.raceId=r.raceId WHERE r.year=2013',sep='') results=dbGetQuery(ergastdb,q) library(plyr) results['delta'] = abs(results['grid']-results['positionOrder']) churn.df = ddply(results[,c('round','name','delta')], .(round,name), summarise, churn = churn(delta), adjchurn = adjchurn(delta) )
For more details, see this first release of the Keeping an Eye on Competitiveness – Tracking Churn chapter of the Wrangling F1 Data With R book.
Book Extras – Data Files, Code Files and a Dockerised Application
Idling through the LeanPub documentation last night, I noticed that they support the ability to sell digital extras, such as bundled code files or datafiles. Along with the base book sold at one price, additional extras can be bundled into packages alongside the original book and sold at another (higher) price. As with the book sales, two price points are supported: the minimum price and a recommended price.
It was easy enough to create a bundle of sample code and data files to support the Wrangling F1 Data With R book and add them as an extras package bundled with the book for an extra dollar or so.
This approach makes it slightly easier to distribute file bundles to support a book, but it still requires a reader to do some work in configuring their own development environment.
In an attempt to make this slightly easier, I also started exploring ways of packaging and distributing a preconfigured virtual machine that contains the tools – as well as code and data examples – that are required in order to try out the data wrangling approaches described in the book. (I'm starting to see more and more technical books supported by virtual machines, and can imagine this approach becoming a standard way of augmenting practical texts.) In particular, I needed a virtual machine that could run RStudio and that would be preloaded with libraries that would support working with SQLite data files and generating ggplot2 charts.
The route I opted for was to try out a dockerised application. The rocker/hadleyverse Docker image bundles a wide variety of useful R packages into a container along with RStudio and a base R installation. Building on top of this image, I created a small Dockerfile that additionally loaded in the example code and data files from the book extras package – psychemedia/wranglingf1data.
# Wrangling F1 Data Dockerfile # # https://github.com/psychemedia/wranglingf1data-docker # # Pull RStudio base image with handy packages... FROM rocker/hadleyverse #Create a directory to create a new project from RUN mkdir -p /home/rstudio/wranglingf1data RUN chmod a+rw /home/rstudio/wranglingf1data #Populate the project-directory-to-be with ergast API supporting code and data ADD ergastR-core.R /home/rstudio/wranglingf1data/ergastR-core.R ADD ergastdb13.sqlite /home/rstudio/wranglingf1data/ergastdb13.sqlite #Populate the project-directory-to-be with an additional data source ADD scraperwiki.sqlite /home/rstudio/wranglingf1data/scraperwiki.sqlite
Running this Dockerfile (for example, using boot2docker) downloads and builds a containerised application preconfigured to support the book and available via a web browser. Instructions for downloading, and running the container can be found here: psychemedia/wranglingf1data-docker repository.
I also added instructions for using the Dockerised application to the book extras package as part of its README file.
Custom Gridlines and Line Guides in R/ggplot Charts
In the last quarter of last year, I started paying more attention to the use of custom grid lines and line guides in charts I've been developing for the Wrangling F1 Data With R book.
The use of line guides was in part inspired by canopy views from within the cockpit of one of the planes that makes up the Red Arrows aerobatic display team.
A little bit of digging suggested that the lines on the cockpit are actually an explosive cord used to shatter the cockpit if a pilot needs to eject from the aircraft – but I can't believe that the pilots don't also use the lines as a crib for helping position themselves with respect to the other aircraft in the team? (I emailed the Red Arrows press office to ask about the extent to which the cockpit lines are used in this way but got what amounted to a NULL response.)
Whatever the case, it seems eminently sensible to me that we make use of line guides to help us read charts more effectively, where it makes sense to, or to use guides as stepping stones to more refined data views.
The following example shows how we can generate a 2 dimensional grid based on the discrete points allocations possible for being placed in the top 10 positions of a Formula One race.
The grid lines show allowable points values, and are constructed as follows:
NEWPOINTS =c(25,18,15,12,10,8,6,4,2,1) #The newpoints dataframe has two columns #The first column indicates points available, in order #The second column is the maximum number of points the lower placed driver could score newpoints=data.frame(x=c(NEWPOINTS,0),y=c(NEWPOINTS[-1],0,0)) baseplot_singleWay=function(g){ g=g+xlab('Highest placed driver points')+ylab('Lower placed driver points') g=g+scale_y_continuous(breaks = newpoints$x,minor_breaks=NULL) g=g+scale_x_continuous(breaks = newpoints$x,minor_breaks=NULL) g=g+coord_fixed() g=g+guides(size=FALSE)+theme_bw() g } g=baseplot_singleWay(ggplot()) g
The final chart (of which this is a "one-sided" example) is used to display a count of the number of races in which at least one of the two drivers in a particular team scores points in a race. The horizontal x-axis represents the number of points scored by the highest placed driver in the race, and the y-axis the number of points scored by their lower placed team mate.
A fixed co-ordinate scheme is adopted to ensure that points are separated consistently on the x and y axes. A dotted red line shows the maximum number of points the lower placed driver in a team could scored depending on the number of points scored by their higher placed team mate.
#Add in the maximum points line guide g+geom_line(data=newpoints,aes(x=x,y=y),col='red',linetype='dotted')
A two-sided version of the chart is also possible in which the x-axis represents the points scored in a particular race by one name driver and the y-axis represents the points scored by another named driver in the same race. The two-sided chart has two guidelines, representing the maximum points that can be scored by the other driver in the event of one particular driver being higher placed in a race.
A full description can be found in the Points Performance Charts chapter of the Wrangling F1 Data With R book.
Sketching Scatterplots to Demonstrate Different Correlations
Looking just now for an openly licensed graphic showing a set of scatterplots that demonstrate different correlations between X and Y values, I couldn't find one.
[UPDATE: following a comment, Rich Seiter has posted a much cleaner – and general – method here: NORTA Algorithm Examples; refer to that post – rather than this – for the method…(my archival copy of rseiter's algorithm)]
So here's a quick R script for constructing one, based on a Cross Validated question/answer (Generate two variables with precise pre-specified correlation):
library(MASS) corrdata=function(samples=200,r=0){ data = mvrnorm(n=samples, mu=c(0, 0), Sigma=matrix(c(1, r, r, 1), nrow=2), empirical=TRUE) X = data[, 1] # standard normal (mu=0, sd=1) Y = data[, 2] # standard normal (mu=0, sd=1) data.frame(x=X,y=Y) } df=data.frame() for (i in c(1,0.8,0.5,0.2,0,-0.2,-0.5,-0.8,-1)){ tmp=corrdata(200,i) tmp['corr']=i df=rbind(df,tmp) } library(ggplot2) g=ggplot(df,aes(x=x,y=y))+geom_point(size=1) g+facet_wrap(~corr)+ stat_smooth(method='lm',se=FALSE,color='red')
And here's an example of the result:
It's actually a little tidier if we also add in + coord_fixed() to fix up the geometry/aspect ratio of the chart so the axes are of the same length:
So what sort of OER does that make this post?!;-)
PS methinks it would be nice to be able to use different distributions, such as a uniform distribution across x. Is there a similarly straightforward way of doing that?
UPDATE: via comments, rseiter (maybe Rich Seiter?) suggests the NORmal-To-Anything (NORTA) algorithm (about, also here). I have no idea what it does, but here's what it looks like!;-)
//based on http://blog.ouseful.info/2014/12/17/sketching-scatterplots-to-demonstrate-different-correlations/#comment-69184 #The NORmal-To-Anything (NORTA) algorithm library(MASS) library(ggplot2) #NORTA - h/t rseiter corrdata2=function(samples, r){ mu <- rep(0,4) Sigma <- matrix(r, nrow=4, ncol=4) + diag(4)*(1-r) rawvars <- mvrnorm(n=samples, mu=mu, Sigma=Sigma) #unifvars <- pnorm(rawvars) unifvars <- qunif(pnorm(rawvars)) # qunif not needed, but shows how to convert to other distributions print(cor(unifvars)) unifvars } df2=data.frame() for (i in c(1,0.9,0.6,0.4,0)){ tmp=data.frame(corrdata2(200,i)[,1:2]) tmp['corr']=i df2=rbind(df2,tmp) } g=ggplot(df2,aes(x=X1,y=X2))+geom_point(size=1)+facet_wrap(~corr) g+ stat_smooth(method='lm',se=FALSE,color='red')+ coord_fixed()
Here's what it looks like with 1000 points:
Note that with smaller samples, for the correlation at zero, the best fit line may wobble and may not have zero gradient, though in the following case, with 200 points, it looks okay…
The method breaks if I set the correlation (r parameter) values to less than zero – Error in mvrnorm(n = samples, mu = mu, Sigma = Sigma) : 'Sigma' is not positive definite – but we can just negate the y-values (unifvars[,2]=-unifvars[,2]) and it seems to work…
If in the corrdata2 function we stick with the pnorm(rawvars) distribution rather than the uniform (qunif(pnorm(rawvars))) one, we get something that looks like this:
Hmmm. Not sure about that…?
Identifying Position Change Groupings in Rank Ordered Lists
The title says it all, doesn't it?!
Take the following example – it happens to show race positions by driver for each lap of a particular F1 grand prix, but it could be the evolution over time of any rank-based population.
The question I had in mind was – how can I identify positions that are being contested during a particular window of time, where by contested I mean that the particular position was held by more than one person in a particular window of time?
Let's zoom in to look at a couple of particular steps.
We see distinct groups of individuals who swap positions with each other between those two consecutive steps, so how can we automatically detect the positions that these drivers are fighting over?
A solution given to a Stack Overflow question on how to get disjoint sets from a list in R gives what I thought was a really nice solution: treat it as a graph, and then grab the connected components.
Here's my working of it. Start by getting a list of results that show a particular driver held different positions in the window selected – each row in the original dataframe identifies the position held by a particular driver at the end of a particular lap:
library(DBI) ergastdb =dbConnect(RSQLite::SQLite(), './ergastdb13.sqlite') #Get a race identifier for a specific race raceId=dbGetQuery(ergastdb, 'SELECT raceId FROM races WHERE year="2012" AND round="1"') q=paste('SELECT * FROM lapTimes WHERE raceId=',raceId[[1]]) lapTimes=dbGetQuery(ergastdb,q) lapTimes$position=as.integer(lapTimes$position) library(plyr) #Sort by lap first just in case lapTimes=arrange(lapTimes,driverId,lap) #Create a couple of new columns #pre is previous lap position held by a driver given their current lap #ch is position change between the current and previous lap tlx=ddply(lapTimes,.(driverId),transform,pre=(c(0,position[-length(position)])),ch=diff(c(0,position))) #Find rows where there is a change between a given lap and its previous lap #In particular, focus on lap 17 llx=tlx[tlx['ch']!=0 & tlx['lap']==17,c("position","pre")] llx
This filters the complete set of data to just those rows where there is a difference between a driver's current position and previous position (the first column in the result just shows row numbers and can be ignored).
## position pre ## 17 2 1 ## 191 17 18 ## 390 9 10 ## 448 1 2 ## 506 6 4 ## 719 10 9 ## 834 4 5 ## 892 18 19 ## 950 5 6 ## 1008 19 17
We can now create a graph in which nodes represent positions (position or pre values) and edges connect a current and previous position.
#install.packages("igraph") #http://stackoverflow.com/a/25130575/454773 library(igraph) posGraph = graph.data.frame(llx) } plot(posGraph)
The resulting graph is split into several components:
We can then identify the connected components:
posBattles=split(V(posGraph)$name, clusters(posGraph)$membership) #Find the position change battles for (i in 1:length(posBattles)) print(posBattles[[i]])
This gives the following clusters, and their corresponding members:
## [1] "2" "1" ## [1] "17" "18" "19" ## [1] "9" "10" ## [1] "6" "4" "5"
To generalise this approach, I think we need to do a couple of things:
- allow a wider window within which to identify battles (so look over groups of three or more consecutive laps);
- simplify the way we detect position changes for a particular driver; for example, if we take the set of positions held by a driver within the desired window, if the cardinality of the set (that is, its size) is greater than one, then we have had at least one position change for that driver within that window. Each set of size > 1 of unique positions held by different drivers can be used to generate a set of distinct, unordered pairs that connect the positions (I think it only matters that they are connected, not that a driver specifically went from position x to position y going from one lap to the next?). If we generate the graph from the set of distinct unordered pairs taken across all drivers, we should then be able to identify the contested/driver change position clusters.
Hmm… I need to try that out… And when I do, if and when it works(?!), I'll add a complete demonstration of it – and how we might make use of it – to the Wrangling F1 Data With R book.
Information Density and Custom Chart Designs
I've been doodling today with a some charts for the Wrangling F1 Data With R living book, trying to see how much information I can start trying to pack into a single chart.
The initial impetus came simply from thinking about a count of laps led in a particular race by each drive; this morphed into charting the number of laps in each position for each driver, and then onto a more comprehensive race summary chart (see More Shiny Goodness – Tinkering With the Ergast Motor Racing Data API for an earlier graphical attempt at producing a race summary chart).
The chart shows:
– grid position: identified using an empty grey square;
– race position after the first lap: identified using an empty grey circle;
– race position on each driver's last lap: y-value (position) of corresponding pink circle;
– points cutoff line: a faint grey dotted line to show which positions are inside – or out of – the points;
– number of laps completed by each driver: size of pink circle;
– total laps completed by driver: greyed annotation at the bottom of the chart;
– whether a driver was classified or not: the total lap count is displayed using a bold font for classified drivers, and in italics for unclassified drivers;
– finishing status of each driver: classification statuses other than *Finished* are also recorded at the bottom of the chart.
The chart also shows drivers who started the race but did not complete the first lap.
What the chart doesn't show is what stage of the race the driver was in each position, and how long for. But I have an idea for another chart that could help there, as well as being able to reuse elements used in the chart shown here.
FWIW, the following fragment of R code shows the ggplot function used to create the chart. The data came from the ergast API, though it did require a bit of wrangling to get it into a shape that I could use to power the chart.
#Reorder the drivers according to a final ranked position g=ggplot(finalPos,aes(x=reorder(driverRef,finalPos))) #Highlight the points cutoff g=g+geom_hline(yintercept=10.5,colour='lightgrey',linetype='dotted') #Highlight the position each driver was in on their final lap g=g+geom_point(aes(y=position,size=lap),colour='red',alpha=0.15) #Highlight the grid position of each driver g=g+geom_point(aes(y=grid),shape=0,size=7,alpha=0.2) #Highlight the position of each driver at the end of the first lap g=g+geom_point(aes(y=lap1pos),shape=1,size=7,alpha=0.2) #Provide a count of how many laps each driver held each position for g=g+geom_text(data=posCounts, aes(x=driverRef,y=position,label=poscount,alpha=alpha(poscount)), size=4) #Number of laps completed by driver g=g+geom_text(aes(x=driverRef,y=-1,label=lap,fontface=ifelse(is.na(classification), 'italic' , 'bold')),size=3,colour='grey') #Record the status of each driver g=g+geom_text(aes(x=driverRef,y=-2,label=ifelse(status!='Finished', status,'')),size=2,angle=30,colour='grey') #Styling - tidy the chart by removing the transparency legend g+theme_bw()+xRotn()+xlab(NULL)+ylab("Race Position")+guides(alpha=FALSE)
The fully worked code can be found in forthcoming update to the Wrangling F1 Data With R living book.

Hopscotch, Programming Designed for Everyone: coding for kids
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Hopscotch HD is a drag and drop programming app for kids to write their own programs. Kids need to be independent readers in order to follow the instructions and commands and "write" their code, but there is no objectionable content in the app. Kids are empowered to create programs that control characters and can add text to their programs. While Hopscotch HD will appeal to all kids, the character-based design may be especially appealing to girls (or boys) who may not be as drawn to the industrial-looking designs of programming apps like Cargo-Bot. Kids can view programs created by other kids in or upload their own programs to the community. Kids are instructed not to use their real names. Postings appear immediately with no moderation.
What kids can learn
- engineering
Thinking & Reasoning
- logic
- strategy
- combining knowledge
- producing new content
Tech Skills
- digital creation
Engagement, Approach, Support
The characters and colors are fun and vibrant, and the app empowers kids to create open-ended options.
Hopscotch HD is a good example of scaffolded learning. Kids get the support they need to create programs and build confidence before they encounter the intricacies of coding.
More tutorials or sample programs would help kids grasp the concepts more quickly, but the interface is intuitive and each control is defined in the help section.
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
What's it about?
Kids create games and animations with HOPSCOTCH HD by dragging and dropping commands and instructions into a script. Kids choose characters -- colorful monsters or animals -- and customize commands to make the characters move where they want or do what they want. Kids are empowered to determine specifics -- like how far their character moves, the color and size of trail it leaves, creating a line or shape, changing its size and costume, etc. Kids can share their programs with others via a link or on the Hopscotch community board in-app.
Is it any good?
Hopscotch HD is a great introduction to hands-on visual programming. Kids don't have to worry about missing intricate details like a closing parenthesis just yet, but they can see how each command is carried out and the importance of each step and its placement. Unlike the few other early programming apps currently available, Hopscotch is open-ended, so kids can create what they want rather than writing the code to make a character do what they are told to have it do. This option may be paralyzing to some kids at first, but they'll just need some encouragement to take some risks and have some fun. The app only offers one tutorial example, though, and then kids have to create the actions on their own. More examples or even some step-by-step guided programs that kids could copy would enrich the learning value of the app. The community features some great examples of what kids can create, along with some not-so-stellar examples, as everything uploaded appears instantly with no moderation. Many posts feature kids begging for "stars," the say to show appreciation for a program. At the time of review, there were was objectionable content in the programs, but that is certainly a possibility in an unmoderated community.
Families can talk about...
Once kids have mastered Hopscotch HD, steer them to MIT's online application development tool, Scratch.
Talk to kids about the growing STEM fields and the evolution of computers, programming, and mobile devices. As digital natives, they are often unaware of just how new mobile technology is.
Start kids off with step-by-step logic apps like Kodable Pro or Tynker and then move them to Hopscotch to create their own programs.

Alex boys' soccer: Crowe's late goal leads to tie
The Alexandria boys' soccer team escaped Willmar with a 1-1 tie after Devin Crowe scored in the 75th minute to force overtime on Monday night.
Neither team could find the back of the net in the extra session as Alexandria moved to 4-8-2 overall and 3-6-1 in the Central Lakes Conference. It was a solid performance for the Alexandria boys against a Willmar team that is averaging almost three goals per game, which is second most of any team in the CLC.

Belgian divorced mother, teacher, singer, texas hold'em player... I love travelling when my daughter is not with me. Listening to some music in different cities is a thing I'll never get tired of ;-)

Vanessa was a real friend for the weekend she stayed. It was pleasure to host her and share a pint and some great conversation. She even was very happy with my Irish breakfast, would be delighted to host her again.
It was the second time that Vanessa stayed and it was great to see her again. She is charming, very thoughtful and a perfect guest, totally recommended!!
Vanessa is very easy going, friendly, a good laugh, entertaining and a great guest. She is a great singer too, ending up playing a few tunes on my guitar keeping us entertained while the wine flowed.
It was an absolute pleasure having Vanessa stay with us, it was a pity that it was only for a night but look forward to catching up again whether it be here or in Brussels !
Vanessa came to stay with us for the 2nd time and again it was a pleasure :)
Would recommend 100%.
Vanessa is a very flexible person. I met her one before her stay at my place and it was like I knew her for a lifetime.
We had some good time together out. Talkative, good communication, happy... that's Vanessa.
Vanessa was a great guest - very friendly, sociable, pleasant, interesting, very neat and tidy; we were delighted to host her.
Would recommend 100% :).

I received my first tablet in 2009 and have been drawing digitally ever since. I love traditional art as well but I rarely put photos of it up.
My wish is to do an art related job. I want to be a game artist, but there is limited space I have heard. I am trying to look for a different type of carrier that incorporates designing characters and digital art. I'm cool with illustrating too.

We are aware of the short comings of the indentation. We have yet to come
up with a better way of describing the indentation in terms of its
grammer. At the moment we seem to do reasonably well with very little
knowledge of the language in the template. All of the items that you have
raised above require a little more information about the syntax in order
to make them work properly. This is actually why C is burnt in because it
is easier to handle it like this than coming up with all of the correct
rules that are programmable.
We have considered how we might express this, but so far have not come up
with a sufficiently good way of minimally and generically describing the
syntax of the target language for indentation.
If anybody has any thoughts on how we can do this I would like to hear
them because it is not trivial.
Anybody looking for a Comp. Sci. project at University????

I have two beer distributors listed for sale in Western PA. One has a license that allows you to be the master distributor for micro-brews so you can sell micro-brews to other distributors. Please contact us for more details by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com If you know someone that may be interested, please refer them to me and you will get a nice referral fee. Just make sure they provide me your information.
Sounds fishy!
What is fishy about it. Businesses are bought and sold all the time. This is an opportunity to buy something that you would have an interest in and make a living without the startup fears.
Just out of curiousity, why are you selling?
He/she is a business broker, nothing wrong with that. Sold a business using a business broker in the past and was a happy camper.

Attempt To Smuggle Drugs Into Jail Foiled
Story By: Brad Francis
|otc abortion pill abortion support open &Body=Thought you would like to seet this from WMFD.com http://www.wmfd.com/newsboard/single.asp?story=54431" target="_blank">Email Story to Friend
Originally Published on: 5/9/2013
A Mansfield woman is charged with trying to smuggle marijuana and tobacco into the Richland County Jail. On May 1, the Richland County Sheriff's Office, working in conjunction with the Richland County Prosecutor's Office discovered a plot to smuggle contraband into the jail. �On the morning of May 7, detectives intercepted the courier, who had placed the contraband in a trash can inside the men's restroom of the Mansfield Municipal Court. �That contraband included four bags containing tobacco and packages of what appeared to be marijuana. �That evidence was then turned over to the crime lab. �Investigators say an inmate was supposed to retrieve the package and smuggle it into the jail. Detectives then executed a search warrant at 115 1/2 Lind Avenue -- the residence of Lori White-Cortez -- to obtain additional contraband. �Detectives and deputies discovered and seized additional marijuana, packaging materials matching that seized during the drop, and two handguns. �All of those items were turned into the crime lab. An arrest warrant was then issued for White-Cortez. � She was arrested Tuesday at a relative's house in the 400 block of South Diamond Street in Mansfield. �White-Cortez is charged with Attempted Illegal Conveyance onto the Grounds of a Detention Facility any Drug of Abuse, a third-degree felony. �She is incarcerated in the Richland County Jail, awaiting an initial court appearance and establishment of bond. The investigation is continuing. �The case will be presented to the Richland County Grand Jury, where additional suspects may be charged.

My dealership said it would cost $565. I bought the part on mopar overstock for $44, removed the intake manifold, (very carefully) pulled the not working MDS solenoid and placed the new one in the block. I was getting error code P3441 and P3497.

One of my favorite catalogs for all things babies and kids is One Step Ahead, so I was really excited when they sent me The Powder Pouch Sand Removal System to review. The Powder Pouch is just that - a small little pouch (in a cute beach pattern) with talcum powder inside, but it works wonders and is my new beach bag essential. It really helps to get the sand OFF easily, unlike using a towel or wipes that just seem to push the sand around. It is great to pull out when your little one needs to clean up before having a snack, or getting into the car, or if they just don't like the feeling of sand on them. We took it to our preschool beach clean-up last weekend and it was a hit with all the sand covered kids. It was also super easy to use with the baby too; he gets sand stuck in all those cute little chubby leg and arm creases.
The pouch can easily be refilled with talc or baby powder and is machine washable. A pleather carry bag is also included so you won't have a beach bag full of baby powder either!
