An urban game that is similar to baseball or cricket that was popular among African Americans in Virginia's (Jackson Ward/Gilpin Court)area during the 60's and 70's. It is considered a baseball/stickball game played on the streets or in vacant lots. The game consisted of a pitcher, hitter and a back catcher and a lot of outfielders(as many as you can handle).Under hand pitching was allowed. After a succesful hit, the outfielder must retrieve the ball and advance toward the hitter at home plate. As soon as the bat touches the ground, the outfielder had to throw or roll the ball towards the bat. The ball must make contact with the bat/stick. If the ball is caught by the outfielder with out touching the ground then it is automatically your choice of hitting, pitching or back catching. The pitcher and the backcatcher often rotate if the pitcher strikes out the bat.

Review: 5 Barrel Rum (Travellers)
Posted by Arctic Wolf on January 29, 2012
Travellers' 5 Barrel Rum is a premium aged rum brand produced in Belize, (the northernmost mainland country of Central America). Belize is a former British Colony, and lies just south of Mexico with the Caribbean Sea to the east and Guatemala to the west and south. The producer of 5 Barrel Rum, Travellers Liquors Limited has been involved in the production of rum in Belize since the early 1960′s originally working with independent distillers. In 1989, Travellers acquired full control of their own distillery, and they have remained in full control of their own brands ever since.
The 5 Barrel Rum is made from locally grown Belize sugar cane. According to the Travellers website, this cane is cut and crushed in a manner which retains its natural flavors, and the all of the rum is aged in Kentucky oak barrels for a full 5 years. It is blended to be a full-bodied rum with the well-rounded taste which results from oak barrel aging.
Recently, I was given a bottle of 5 Barrel Rum by a representative of Travellers Liquor Canada for the purpose of this review. Here is an excerpt:

Sometimes in the sport of Urban Fly Fishing, a little comfort goes a long way.
What I mean by comfort fishing is getting out to one of your Honey Holes. A place where no matter what the conditions, you are going to catch something!
Lately the Winter Fishing Blues have got me dreaming of big bedding Largemouth Bass, although I don't mind catching a Rainbow Trout or two as evident in my last post Timing is Everything.
Micropterus salmoides of the Black Bass family is defintely the species closest to my Fly Fishing Heart.
Being the stubborn person that I am, I've been hitting the local Park Lakes in hopes of sneaking in a couple of fish before early spring.
However the fishing has been slow, and the couple of Bass that I've been able to get on the other end of the line are on let's just say the "Small Side".
So what is an Urban Bass Fly Fishing Fanatic to do?
I'll tell you what I'm to do, head to a little stream Honey Hole in Northern Orange County that produces Green Sunfish all year long.
Okay they're not Largemouth Bass, but they look similar and they are a ton of fun to catch.
I arrived at my Honey Hole dusting off my 3 weight and pulling out an assortment of Trout Flies.
A little size 16 Caddis with a dropper 18 Red Copper John tied on and I was off to the races. I'm talking fish, after fish, after fish!
After about an hour. I had pulled in over 40 Greenies and I decided I had all the comfort I needed.
Refreshed, I drove away already drifting off into thoughts of what the spring Bass Fishing of 2012 will have to offer.
I know the fish I caught were small, and most people want to see us catching some huge 10 pound Largemouth Bass out of Castaic Lake with Larry Kurosaki in the front of the boat.
Trust me, so would I!
But that's just not us. We are just a couple of regular guys that love Fly Fishing, and love to catch fish no matter how big or small.
It's just about the Urban Fly Venturing, a Disease Worth Catching!
4 Responses to "COMFORT FISHING"
I love that creek. I've only caught a couple out of it, looks like you did quite well!
Last time I was there, several people were fishing with cane poles and worms in the small pond at the far end. They did better than me -
Hey Sean,
I'm going through the same thing here in Texas. Most of the days this "Winter" have been a little to warm for the stocked Trout but to cold for all the other freshwater fish. Looking forward to the fishing that the spring will bring, but not the 9 months of heat that comes with it.
In preparation for sunfish season, i recently did some Über Urban Fishing on my lunch break at work in downtown Austin. Check it out at
take care,
die Fische -
just fished in the same honey hole Saturday 2/4, it was not on fire, but I managed to land 7 on a #16 olive beadhead caddis, and one was a trophy Greeny – about 7″ long. I think that those fish don't have any pressure/competitiion (i.e. LB bass) that is why the numbers are so high. Great fun – let's keep the secret safe with us fly guys. I've never even seen anyone else fish there besides myself in the 4 or 5 times I've been there.

JeffWashington StateHairAuburnNormal HairFine or Thin HairWhen You Want Something That Works... But Don't Have To Admit It...I was extremely skeptical about this kind of thing. However, couldn't be more satisfied with the results. Working with the public on a daily basis, I am not one of those people that is willing to go around with something that is obviously not natural. After all, I still have hair. But recently I have not had the density of my youth. Secondarily there is the issue of color. What about a real solution for someone with reddish blonde hair? Looking at it all, what to do? So I decided to try Hair Cubed. Works amazingly as promised. Waterproof & sweat proof. No worry about rain, or working out. Won't even come out in the shower until applying shampoo. I like that it sprays into your hair, rather than a scalp coloring coverage product. And color? I am not blonde, or auburn... So I bought both. The auburn makes a great base color, and then add a touch of blonde on top... I can't even tell where my natural color begins or ends. How can it get any better than that?? Oh, yes it can... I get compliments on my "haircut", without any embarrassing negative attention. This has been a seriously realistic no-hassle solution, where you can look someone in the eye and feel good about it. Thanks so much, but I will never cop to it. Thankfully, I won't have to.posted Oct 7, 2011Link to this post

Consumer Protection
PROTECTING CONSUMER SAFETY—Toys should not be toxic or dangerous for children to play with. Our food should not make us sick. The terms for banking and credit accounts should be clear and easy to understand.
U.S. PIRG's consumer program works to alert the public to hidden dangers and scams and to ban anti-consumer practices and unsafe products.
For 27 years, U.S. PIRG's "Trouble In Toyland" report has surveyed store shelves and identified choking hazards, noise hazards and other dangers. Our report has led to at least 150 recalls and other regulatory actions over the years.
Get our tips for buying safer toys.
In April, U.S. PIRG released a report in which we surveyed more than 350 bank branches and revealed that fewer than half of branches obeyed their legal duty to fully disclose fees to prospective customers, while one in four provided no fee information at all. We also found that despite widespread stories about the "death" of free checking, free and low-cost checking choices are still widely available, if consumers shop around.

I listed some of them here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic....28619#p1228619 . It's not my distros fault, it's reproducible on Windows even.
that's "funny" but none of these issues seems to trigger for me. i'm using arch as well. i'm not saying those issues don't happen, but it might be a minority of the cases.
i have issues with chromes and firefox alike, from time to time - cuz yeah, chrome is also a great browser, but actually FAR from fault free. You'll figure out as you use it.
The memory used by Chrome/ium is really too much (with several tabs open it can be 4x the ram taken by firefox), so it will never be an option for me.
Chromium used to open very fast in the initial releases, but now is a PIG!
Firefox is becoming better,faster and more efficient from release to release... can't wait for ionmonkey!
Michael, there's a typo in your news. More important than slower ARMv7 processors is support for even slower ARMv6 (which is what the big news is about).
Compared to the typical firefox release it has many new features indeed. In my opinion the most important by far is H.264 support. With that feature and an addon to change the user agent on a per website basis I can have flash disabled most of the time at last. I hope the guys at mozilla bring this support on all os soon.
By the way, I don't know why these guys are investing time in supporting ARMv6 when firefox is obviously a resource hungry browser. Minimum RAM required is 384 MB so I don't think there will be many ARMv6 devices out there that can use firefox.

what exactly is private browsing?
It's a mode that firefox wont save any information at all about what you did while in that session. No cache, no temp files, no history.
Great for keeping my old lady from knowing about *hub

I request Economist Magazine to have a sub-title video . I am from India and sometimes it is difficult to understand the way the other people speak. You can have Sub-title language as English. That is pretty Enough. I further would say that all the videos should be in sub-title ( language : English) so that it becomes easy to understand.
Thanks, hope you get the point.

Introducing Connectivity from CQ Roll Call
Earlier this month CQ Roll Call introduced Connectivity, a new blog on issue advocacy and engagement, bringing much-needed coverage to the vital and fast-changing aspect of political activism.
Launching this blog was a natural fit for the company.

Preventing, living with eye problems
(NewsUSA) - Approximately fifty million Americans suffer allergy symptoms like runny or itchy noses, sneezing, coughing and sinus infection. But an unlucky 4 percent of allergy sufferers experience most of their symptoms in their eyes.
In eye allergies, also called "allergic conjunctivitis," exposure to allergens like dust mites, pet dander, pollen and mold inflame the tissue that lines the inside of the eyelid. Symptoms include burning, itchiness, tearing, swelling and a gritty sensation. Some patients report blurred vision and fatigue. Eyes can become so painful and irritated that they disrupt everyday life.
What's the best way to avoid eye allergies? Avoid eye allergens. Of course, it's impossible to completely avoid allergens like dust. For this reason, most people turn to over-the-counter or prescription medications.
Eye allergies can be especially challenging for Americans who wear contact lenses. Some people will simply avoid wearing contacts during allergy season. Others opt for allergy-friendly lenses, like daily disposables. In particular, one-day contact lenses avoid build-up and eliminate exposure to irritating cleaning and disinfecting solutions.
The American Optometric Association offers the following tips for Americans living with eye allergies:
- Don't touch or rub your eyes. Rubbing your eyes can damage tissue. Also, if you have anything on your hands, you risk getting it in your eyes.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water. If you do happen to touch your eyes with your hands, it is safer if your hands are clean.
- Wash your bed linens and pillowcases often. At least once a week, wash your sheets and pillowcases in hot water and detergent. The hot water will help remove airborne allergens that have fallen on you sheets and will kill dust mites.
- Avoid wearing eye makeup. Cosmetics can cause eye allergy symptoms or further irritate eyes that are already experiencing an allergic reaction.
- Don't share eye makeup. You can easily transfer infectious bacteria through shared makeup tools.
You do not have to tolerate itchy, watery eyes. If you suffer from eye allergies, see your optometrist about possible treatment options.

History on Tribe's side in crucial set vs. White Sox
Hoping to hold onto AL Wild Card, Indians enter series with 15-2 edge
The Indians are finally in prime position. But now they have to keep it.
Cleveland holds the second American League Wild Card slot and sits a game behind Tampa Bay for the first one, setting the stage for the season's final six days. The Indians own the league's best record (50-18) against sub-.500 teams and play against struggling teams the rest of the way.
The Indians, who have won eight straight games against teams that are currently below .500, will face the White Sox on Tuesday and Wednesday at Progressive Field before closing out the regular season with a four-game road set against the Twins. The White Sox -- who beat Toronto on Monday, 3-2 -- have lost nine of their last 13 games.
Cleveland will start Ubaldo Jimenez on Tuesday, and the right-hander has been in top form in the second half. The 29-year-old is 5-5 with a 1.77 ERA in 11 outings since the All-Star break, and for the season he is 6-5 with a 3.72 ERA in 15 starts at home.
Chicago has decided to counter with Hector Santiago, who has been kept off the mound since Sept. 13 primarily to rest. The lefty, who has doubled his innings total from last year by tossing 142 2/3 frames, is 4-7 with with a 2.47 ERA in 22 starts. He also has made 11 relief appearances.
The Indians and the Rays are in the lead for the AL Wild Card, but there are four teams -- Baltimore, New York, Kansas City and Texas -- within five games of the second spot. The Rangers are just a game behind Cleveland.
"We're in a fun spot," said Indians manager Terry Francona, whose club has won nine of 11 and 14 of 19. "We have to keep winning. It's a fun way to come to the ballpark. We're playing pretty good baseball, and we need to."
Cleveland is 15-2 against the White Sox and has outscored Chicago by a margin of 106-51 this season, and that tally includes back-to-back four-game road sweeps at U.S. Cellular Field. The Indians outscored the White Sox by 36-21 in a four-game sweep in June and by 32-6 in a four-game set earlier in September. The Tribe also swept a four-game series from the White Sox at Progressive Field on July 29-Aug. 1.
"We've single-handedly put them in the playoff race basically," White Sox catcher Josh Phegley said after the Indians routed Chicago on Sept. 14. "I don't know. They've got our number and it's something."
Chicago has gone 26-53 on the road this season, and it has racked up a 24-45 record against AL Central opponents. The Indians, meanwhile, are 49-30 at home and 38-32 against the division.
Michael Brantley has been red hot for the Indians of late, and he went 3-for-4 in Sunday's victory over Houston. Brantley has hit in seven straight games, batting .423 (11-for-26) over that span. Over his last 20, he's hitting .338.
White Sox: Garcia on roll with new team
• Avisail Garcia has hit the ground running in his audition with the White Sox. Garcia, acquired from Detroit as part of the three-way trade that sent Jake Peavy to Boston, has batted .317 (44-for-139) with 19 RBIs for the White Sox. The 22-year-old has six homers in 89 career games in the Major Leagues, including a solo shot on Monday.
• Adam Dunn hasn't been in the starting lineup for three straight games, but he should be back on Tuesday. Dunn, who's batting .218 with 32 homers and 83 RBIs, has looked tired, according to manager Robin Ventura, who has also sat Dunn so he can give playing time to some of the team's younger players.
Indians: Kipnis hints at offensive resurgence
• Jason Kipnis went 3-for-5 in Sunday's victory, giving the Indians hope that he will ignite in time for the playoffs. Cleveland's second baseman ranks among the league leaders in steals (28) and walks (73), but he is also hitting just .237 (50-for-211) with two home runs and 18 RBIs since July 22.
• The Indians are the first team in the Major Leagues to execute six four-game series sweeps in one season since the 1961 Yankees.
Worth noting
• Cleveland is guaranteed to finish with a winning record for the first time since 2007, when the Indians won the AL Central and came within a game of the World Series.
• The White Sox were 37-55 at the All-Star break and have gone 24-40 after it.

Street-legal golf carts gain traction at City Hall
It's illegal to drive golf carts on most roads in South Dakota, but Dell Rapids streets might soon be the anomaly.The city council here is mulling the idea of establishing a licensing system to allow golf carts to be operated on city streets."This was brought to me by a small group of people who drive their golf carts around town all the time right now anyway," said Councilor Lee Burggraff at the city council's Nov. 18 meeting. "So they said, 'why don't you make it legal for us.' Cops pretty much look the other way but they don't have to."Golf carts would still be illegal on county and state roads like Highway 115, but when it comes to municipal roads, the matter is entirely up to the council, said Dean Hammer, city attorney. "There are only three sections of state law dealing with golf carts," he said. "It must be insured and the driver must hold a drivers license. It doesn't have any restrictions on age or turn signals or headlights."The proposed ordinance would require licensed golf carts to be equipped with a slow-moving emblem and a warning light.The council approved a first reading of the ordinance on a 6-1 vote. Councilor Chad Andrews voted nay and councilor Dave Sommerveld was not present.The council was expected to set the rate for the licensing fee during the second reading Monday.

What is the Who's Who Legal 100?
Pinsent Masons' vision of becoming a truly global firm is a top priority for senior management. Most recently the firm engaged the services of former Maddocks partner David Rennick as a consultant to assist in evaluating the opportunities in the Australian market and to make recommendations to the firm's partnership.
Arbitration | 1 | Life Sciences | 4 |
Asset Recovery | 2 | Mediation | 3 |

Environment | 2 | Real Estate | 2 |
Information Technology | 8 | Sports & Entertainment | 1 |
Insolvency & Restructuring | 1 | Telecoms and Media | 3 |
Insurance & Reinsurance | 1 | ||
At present, the firm is unsure what the outcome of the review will be, but it does signify Pinsent Masons' interest in the Australian legal market, largely due to its close ties to Asia where the firm already has a considerable presence.
Total Listings in WWL | 53 | Established | 1850 |
Home jurisdiction | UK | Total size of firm | 1,200 |
Number of partners | 365 | Number of offices | 19 |
Pinsent Masons is our construction law firm of the year in recognition of its "unrivalled" depth of expertise in this area. The firm garners more listings in our research than any other firm. John Bishop is head of the Beijing office and specialises in construction and engineering law. He is an arbitrator, adjudicator and mediator and his "reputation spans the globe". Mohan Pillay is the joint head of the Singapore office. His disputes practice focuses on construction and engineering projects and he has appeared as lead counsel before the High Court and Court of Appeal in Singapore. Martin Harman has almost 40 years' experience advising contractors, owners and consultants on major infrastructure projects. His recent experience includes advising on airports, motorways, sports stadia and high-rise buildings in the Middle East, India and the Far East. Michelle Nelson is known for her "careful handling" of disputes in the construction sector. Fraser McMillan is head of the Glasgow office and is noted for his "solutions-oriented" approach to matters arising in construction and engineering projects. Vincent Connor is head of office in Hong Kong and head of sectors – Asia. His practice includes strategic advice during projects and representation of clients in arbitration and litigation. In addition, he has experience of adjudication under security of payment legislation.
Clive Seddon heads the firm's TMT team and is "world class" according to sources. He advises on transformational change projects, disputes and renegotiation of contracts. The firm recently enhanced its TMT practice with the acquisition of a team of six lawyers in Paris led by partners Diane Mullenex and Frédéric Ichay. Mullenex is recognised for her telecoms and media, IT and gambling and gaming expertise while Ichay is noted for his M&A experience in the telecoms and media field. Marc Dautlich is head of the information law team and focuses on data protection, freedom of information, technology and e-commerce matters. Annabelle Richard is admitted to practice in France and New York and is noted for her experience in e-commerce, online gaming and gambling, data protection and cyber-security.
Pinsent Masons' life sciences practice expanded in 2013 with a team hire including Paul Ranson and Allistair Booth. The hire completes the firm's full-service offering in the sector. Ranson advises on the regulatory and commercial needs of the industry and is an "authority" on marketing authorisation, pricing and reimbursement issues. Booth focuses on commercial transactions in the sector including licensing, collaboration and partnering deals. Clare Tunstall is singled out for her "sensational" work in the area of patent litigation. Her recent cases include acting for Teva in patent revocation proceedings against Lundbeck.
The firm's corporate responsibility programme named Starfish, which takes its inspiration from the writings of Loren Eiseley, focuses on two areas: partnering with local communities and SOS Children's villages. Pinsent Mason's global partner SOS Children looks after children who as a result of disease, war, natural disaster or abandonment have lost their parents. Each village supports up to 150 children and contains educational, medical and social facilities. The firm assists by supporting the UK headquarters, raising funds for villages and visiting the sites.
According to Pinsent Masons, a diverse workforce allows clients to benefit from a range and depth of knowledge and experience. In recent years the firm has created an in-house diversity employee network that spans offices, practice groups and roles. Gender balance is a key focus and currently over 20 per cent of partners are female, despite this being above average for top 20 law firms the firm is keen to improve the figure.
Following the firm's 2012 merger with Scottish firm McGrigors, the firm has increased its global presence with offices in Munich, Paris and Istanbul. The goal is to be truly global by 2020 and at present the firm certainly appears to be on track.

Alice's Attic: Wise old tree survived mishap as sapling
When we lived on Fifth Street, I took care of several sweet children. I guess our small apartment was a daycare, except it was more like a birthday party every day!Two of the children lived right across the street. Todd became one of Scott's best friends. They never did anything wrong. I bet your children didn't either.When an elderly neighbor lady phoned one day to tell me that they were cutting down her newly planted tree with a knife, I was really taken aback."No, it must be someone else," I said.After all, this lady was very old and probably didn't see too well, and maybe was senile. Otherwise, she would never have thought that two cute little four-year-old boys could be trying to cut down her tree.But, it was possible that no one had told them that it was wrong to do. I needed to sit down and have the conversation. "We have to talk, so, listen very carefully; this is hard for me to do, and I'm only explaining it once."I told the story how a tree is planted. Roots firmly in the ground, water often, fertilize, and it will live for many years.Both of the boys sat listening with wide eyes, opened their little fingers, and handed me the table knife.The sapling survived and has long ago, grown into a big, beautiful tree.I chuckle every time I drive by.

Top 10 things you CAN'T have for Christmas 2011
Article Summary
With Christmas fast approaching it means it's time for our annual look back at some of the technology that caught our eye and had us wishing our fortunes didn't match that of the Greek economy. While not all of the items on this list can be had for an extremely large wad of cash, those that are available for purchase will only find their way down the chimneys of those with a lottery winning or ultra-wealthy - and ultra-generous - family member or friend. Still, Christmas is a time for miracles so it is in that spirit that Gizmag presents its 2010 top 10 list of things you can't have for Christmas this year.

I agree. I don't want to authenticate using Steam, so I won't buy the game. I know though I will be in the huge minority, and the number of people that don't buy it will be hugely,massively outnumbered by the number of people that grumble, but buy it anyway.
I know I'm an exception. I've harboured a long (partly irrational) grudge against SI since CM4 due to the way that was handled. I've only bought 2 versions of the game since (despite swearing I wouldn't buy any ever again....).
With a game as popular as this, SI will do as they please, and people will still buy it. It's like any business or industry. Why would SI change if people are still buying in large numbers? I guess they've done the maths and worked out the number of people that will stick to their guns (like me) will be outnumbered by the increase of sales due to increased piracy protection. They might be right, they might be wrong. But it is their decision to make.
I don't have faith in SI to get it right (or is it SEGA, I'm not sure where the line is drawn these days). I lost faith in them over CM4, and I can remember the last time they tried to enforce something through Steam was a total and utter b@lls up.

Poas Volcano
Trip Start
Jul 02, 2012
Trip End
Jul 02, 2014
Where I stayed
What I did
By about 07:00 the others arrived. At about that same time the two buses arrived. By the time we were all seated and the buses began to roll it was 07:30. That meant it was the beginning of rush hour in San Jose. With one exception, we were going against traffic so the ride was not too bad.
We found ourselves with Marbella Tours. Our tour guide was Eddie and our driver was Alonso. The route took us northwest out of San Jose along the Pan American Highway. Turning almost due north we went through the small town of Alajuela.
Continuing north we could see the rising volcanic mountain range ahead of us blanketed with clouds. Since it was sunny and clear at the lower elevations we were hopeful the clouds would dissipate by the time we reached the crater.
Our first stop was to be he Doka Coffee Estate. Eddie mentioned that coffee was the number one crop in Costa Rica since the 1700's. In fact he referred to the painting in the National Theater that Leslie and I saw the previous Sunday.
Riding along I was struck with the road construction. In many places it literally sliced right through the mountain side. The very steep sides that were created as a result were not reinforced at all. Because of that, Eddie informed us that mudslides happen frequently when there are periods of prolonged rain showers.
About 300 meters from the coffee plantation we passed "Juan Dolar" on the side of the road. He was walking along with a very colorfully painted cart and two large oxen.
The buses pulled over at the coffee estate and let everyone out. We had parked in front of a small building that served as a coffee bar and gift shop. The name of it was La Casa del Caf� la Luisa. Below and behind the building were the fields of coffee plants. To me, the plants looked like small, full trees. Most of them seemed to be seven or eight feet tall. There were some blossoms and some coffee beans still on the plants. Eddie had mentioned the annual harvest goes from roughly November to February.
After wandering around a bit, taking photos, I met Leslie back in the coffee/gift shop. Of course we had to get a couple magnets and a pound of coffee. That made us anxious to get home so we could try the coffee and add the magnets to our refrigerator collection. So we would not have to wait quite so long we bought and shared a cup of coffee there.
We emerged from the shop to find "Juan Dolar" across the street. Eddie said that was the man's nickname. He lets people take pictures of him, his oxen, and cart. For every person clicking the camera he asks for one dollar.
As our trip continued, Eddie regaled us with one story after another and one fact after another. He made the trip quite interesting. One of the factoids he shared was that the minimum wage in Costa Rica is $315 U.S. per month. I think he meant the average wage. He also talked about the typical morning meal of rice and beans called Gallo Pinto.
The higher we went the darker, cloudier, and cooler it became. As we traveled along Eddie collected our fee for the day's activities, $75 each.
We arrived at the bus parking area at Poas Volcano National Park and disembarked. It was very foggy, cool, and misty. At times visibility was between 100 and 200 feet.
The walk from the parking area to the crater was probably 600 or 700 meters. It was a steady uphill climb but it was not too steep.
At the crater overlook all we could see were clouds. Along our way back there were all sorts of very colorful flowers and beautiful green foliage.
Thankfully it never really rained on us while we were there.
On the trip down the mountain we stopped at a little tourist spot, Fresas de Volcan (Volcano Strawberries). They specialized in fresh strawberries as well as strawberry wine. Oddly enough we did not care for the wine; it was very sweet. At that location we were back below the clouds.
Everyone got back on the bus and our adventure continued.

Shopping Cart Usability
When it comes to e-commerce sites and shopping cart flows, usability testing is more than good practice. It's a precious tool that helps uncover missed opportunities and dollars left on the table.
I'd like to present a handful of case studies and A/B tests that indicate a streamlined, "no BS" e-commerce flow with elegant user experience—where the site is honest and clear with visitors about how checkout works and what happens next—usually takes the cake for best conversion rate. The caveat is, keep on testing. As the last case study will suggest, there are always surprises.
Lesson 1: Do what you say you're going to do
In business and in life, integrity is key and we often prefer people who do what they say they're going to do. Why should buttons be any different?
Curious Country Creations, with the help of their digital agency, benefited from a nearly 88% lift in clickthroughs to the next page in the purchase process when they swapped their original button text on the page below from "Submit" to "Go to Payment Options."
What do they sell? Dried plants and flowers for home decor.
"Submit" button
"Go to Payment Options" button
The takeaway here is, if you're wondering what'll convert best on that button, ask yourself: does this button do exactly what its text suggests? The visitors in this test knew exactly what they were in for when they clicked the "Go to Payment Options" button, and I'll bet when they hit the payment options page, they were anything but surprised, which recalls another powerful checkout usability maxim: keep the surprise factor low! It's a shopping cart, not a birthday party.
Lesson 2: Eliminate distractions, tempting as they may be
It's a tough choice. You know it's useful for your customer to see an order summary before checkout—perhaps it's even the more transparent and "honest" approach to checkout UX—but it dominates a large swath of real estate.
Is it better to provide an order summary during checkout, or minimize distractions during the purchase process?
In this case study, Windstream, a provider of high-speed Internet service, saw a 5% increase in purchases when they removed an inline order summary sidebar on their final checkout page.
Inline order summary
No order summary
This single study doesn't tell the whole story when it comes to order summaries (we all know Amazon swears by theirs) but it's important to consider what your site visitors might consider distracting. For Windstream, it turned out the summary was just that: a distraction.
Lesson 3: Give them the whole enchilada
There are good reasons to break the order process into bite-size pieces: it's less overwhelming, more organized, and cleaner in the design phase. But a number of studies like this one have shown that, perhaps counter-intuitively, a single-page checkout can perform better than a multi-step purchase process.
Charmandising, a French e-commerce site that sells pop music memorabilia, discovered that a single-page checkout process increased purchases by a whopping 67%.
Single-page checkout
Multi-step checkout
Lesson 4: Surprises lurk, so keep on testing
Yes, much of the common (empirical) lore suggests that your e-commerce site will convert better if you keep a streamlined, clean checkout flow with minimal distractions and no friction. But Dell ran quite an interesting test to the contrary.
The Dell team decided to test whether sales might be helped by a small lightbox creating some friction for users who decide to leave the shopping cart screen. As it turned out, the triggered overlay increased Dell's sales by 4.4% while decreasing the number of items being removed from the cart.
Triggered "are you sure" overlay
No overlay
One nuance to consider in this test is that most of Dell's products are "high consideration" products. People tend to research the computer they're going to buy with some gravity and time investment as compared to, say, a t-shirt or a toaster. So the "are you sure" triggered overlay for this type of customer may help create real second-guessing and embattle the decision a bit, whereas a buyer of products of "lower consideration" may not behave the same way.
In these case studies, three companies won customers by: setting and fulfilling clear expectations of how their e-commerce website will behave; favoring a clean house free of distractions over increased detail about the purchase; and doing on a single web page what many shopping cart flows insist on doing over several.
It's important to remember that, between retail category, visitor demographics and savvy, and changing trends over time, there's a lot of idiosyncrasy to any single case study. And of course, as Dell's bold triggered overlay test illustrates, there are exceptions and surprises, and we have to keep on testing to uncover them.

Add new comment
It's not indicated if these percentages are absolute or relative. Did a UI change lead to a 5% increase in conversion *rate* or in overall *conversions*? Huge difference. I suspect it's the former but the article wants readers to think it's the latter.
I agree with Carri Craver. When a user bails after the inline order summary, the likeliest explanation is that they've had second thoughts about making the purchase. It's a case where the interests of the buyer clash with the interests (short-term interests, at least) of the seller.
Removing the summary may increase sales, and I'm sure the implicit philosophy (Don't give the customer a chance for second thoughts) has been part of the art of salesmanship for millennia. But it doesn't really fit your headline about simple, honest checkout sequences usually winning.
Regarding the inline order summary being "just a distraction". Increasing purchases is obviously the name of the game in ecommerce. However, in removing the order summary for review during the checkout page, do returns go up too? Do mistakes and user frustration go up? These things have a longer term impact on purchases. I would caution you to make sure you are not increasing sales today but decreasing sales tomorrow. These may not be something that will be easy to measure with traditional analytics either. But keeping a pulse on this may still be possible through return surveys before and after the change.

this is unbelievable, almost literally speaking. imagine how much performance would come out of a quad core - tegra 3 would be obliterated. intel is under some serious treat with this CPU. even the A9 was close in performance.
Phoronix: The Cortex-A15 Continues Running Strong On Linux
Over the past several weeks of running the Samsung Chromebook with its Exynos 5 Dual SoC that is comprised of an ARM Cortex-A15 dual-core processor, I've grown quite fond of this latest ARM processor...
this is unbelievable, almost literally speaking. imagine how much performance would come out of a quad core - tegra 3 would be obliterated. intel is under some serious treat with this CPU. even the A9 was close in performance.
should be close to the i3 something but then even the new current http://phoronix.com/forums/showthrea...621#post300621 Exynos 4 ODROID-U2 Prime 1.7GHz quad (up to 2GHz Over-Clock ) Mali-400 440MHz (600MHz), 2 GB of memory $89
would probably get there already before the Exynos 5 quad/Octo core arrives at least... but then they will finally have the Intel ivy atom refresh by then too i think !

In terms of performance, ARM is nowhere close to Intel. The lowest end (non-Atom) Intel CPUs blow the ARM CPUs out of the water, and the Intel CPUs are getting better at almost the same rate as the ARM CPUs are (despite being so far ahead).
Of course, the ARMs aren't trying to compete with desktop Intel CPUs. Intel CPUs are made to be _fast_. ARM CPUs are made to be _efficient_, which means balancing fast with a very low power envelop. Intel's Atom CPUs might be in trouble, but I don't think that'll be a big problem; if Atom loses out, Intel will just start making ARM CPUs (which they used to, years and years and years ago, iirc; as did AMD).
Tegra is getting its ass kicked because Tegra is a piece of crap, which is 100% on NVIDIA, and has nothing to do with Intel. Tegra is an ARM core and a custom NVIDIA GPU (which has no relation to the GPU parts in your desktop/laptop GPUs), and has been kind of a baffling flop its whole life. The Tegra 1 and 2 didn't even have a SIMD unit, and the Tegra 3 has an 8+8 non-unified ALU cores in its GPU ("8+8 non-unified" meaning that the GPU is horribly under-utilized unless you have a perfectly balanced GPU workload), compared to a PowerVR *MP8 which has 8 unified SIMD cores (e.g. 2x as much processing power plus the capability to get closer to 100% utilization on the usual mixed GPU workloads). Even the PowerVR *MP4 GPUs get somewhere close to 4x the GFLOPS of the Tegra 3's GPU, due to a combination of better utilization of the hardware and the native SIMD-approach. People put a lot of hype around Tegra ("omg it's NVIDIA it's gonna be so fast and I'll have a GeForce in my phone!!~`1!1") but the reality is that it's just a mediocre ARM CPU with an even worse GPU. NVIDIA's expertise is not transitioning well to moble, and it's no surprise: how you make a power-hungry 1500-core high-bandwidth desktop GPU fast has absolutely nothing to do with how you make a power-efficient 8-core bandwidth-starved mobile GPU fast.
well CO elanthis, you did take into consideration that the older tests show this first foundry run (TRAY priced at $20-$30 ?) slower clocked dual core A15 with slower RAM etc was still doing rather well at 50% or more against the i3-330M, 2.13 GHz, 4 Threads, 1066 DDR3, 35 W,TRAY priced at $225.00
i forget is this Samsung A15 a dual channel or single channel ram SOC ! so potentially artificially slowed down throughput by a lot there too, and its not like they even have any Samsung wideIO mobile ram on there yet ether, so theres a potential massive throughput speed boost in the future for any SOC using that OC, (supposed to be available in 2013 but possibly delayed 2 years now).

Right, where are the power consupmtion and performance per watt benchmarks? Especially compared to Intel / x86(-64).
Or are they not coming seeing Intel i7 (I think) embarrassed the ARM processors last time?
maybe they dont try to but they do... I will not be overduing it arm is such long crap as the opensource grafics drivers are worse than lets say the amd-driver or maybe even the nouvou driver... it stands and falls with that.
That is btw also my most important question can you view 1080p videos with the free drivers with doing by some hardware-parts not the cpu? I mean is there something like va-api working?
So for what desktop operation is a amd x2 3800+ not fast enough? current games... that is all... all other tasks are some specialist things... I would not call that desktop I would call that workstation or something like that. The same is true for my E350 Systems they are aproximitly nearly at the same speed. So if there would be quadcore version of this cpu here... I think its fast enough for desktop or call it office... it would be not fast enough for gaming what maybe 5% of the "desktop" systems are used to... so replace gaming for your desktop and your statement is true...
while the Krait' With (quad?) Adreno 320 smartphone seems fine even though its not a real Corex core, it would be far more cost effective to buy 2 of those cheap Exynos 4 quad ODROID-U2 Prime with quad Mali-400 440MHz (600MHz) for linux use at the same price as the single phone ,and OC you get to use HW assisted driver blob's when they make them generally available perhaps this month! or at least before march/April when the real cortex A15 quad should be available, the question is also which OSS 2d/3d driver gets released first OC and do you want to be messing around rooting your device etc....

Any idea why the LAME results are so poor? Is this a threaded version of LAME (LAME-MP) or the normal single threaded version. If the latter, then I'm very confused why the A15 does so poorly.
