For the second week in a row, it is the women who turned in the most significant hoops results around the conference. With one week to go before the start of conference season on the 21st, six teams have won at least eight games and seven have winning records.
WCC women went 11-5 last week, with three of those five defeats to schools in the Power 5 conferences, all on the road. Of the victories, Saint Mary's bested Washington State 75-71, BYU dispatched Utah 73-59 and Santa Clara, the Little Engine That Could, topped Texas Tech 75-70.
Meanwhile, San Diego is sailing along at 9-1 under coach Cindy Fisher, now in her 11th season in America's Finest City. The Toreros have compiled four straight 20-win seasons and with their start in 2015-16 are almost halfway to a fifth.
Beneath San Diego in the standings, Saint Mary's, San Francisco and Santa Clara are all 8-2, with BYU at 8-3, Gonzaga at 8-4 and Pacific at 5-4.
Fueling these teams are a trio of big-time scorers who look like they will wage a season-long contest for top scorer in the conference. USF's Taylor Proctor is at the top of the list now at 23.9 points per game, followed by BYU's Lexi Rydalch at 23.4 and San Diego's Malina Hood at 22.3. Rydalch and Hood both roam the backcourt while Proctor is a forward.
In BYU's next game, its WCC opener at San Diego on the 23rd, Rydalch should become her school's fifth player, male and female, to hit 2,000 career points. At the moment she is at 1,994. Cougars to most recently crack 2,000 are men's stalwarts Tyler Haws in 2015 and Jimmer Fredette in 2011. Rydalch needs 226 points the rest of season to become the conference's career leading scorer among women.
On the men's side of things, here's What We Learned from last week's non-conference games:
All-Kyle team
Those of you who read this humble offering on a regular basis know I am fixated on names, whether unusual or usual but humorously repetitive. In the latter case, it's the first name Kyle. It seems like every team in the conference has a Kyle on its roster, but in reality only three do: Gonzaga, BYU and Saint Mary's.
However, Gonzaga and BYU have two Kyles each. Saint Mary's has one. At the end of the season, it's quite possible that the WCC All-Conference team could have three Kyles on it. In that spirit, we present our All-Kyle team, heavy on forwards and bereft of a center, with their season stats to date.
F – Kyle Wiltjer, Gonzaga, 20.6 points per game, 7.4 rebounds per game, .903 from the free-throw line.
F – Kyle Davis, BYU, 12.4 ppg, 11.2 rpg, 1.1 blocks per game.
F – Kyle Clark, Saint Mary's, 8.7 ppg.
G – Kyle Collinsworth, BYU, 14.8 ppg, 8.0 rpg, 7.0 assists per game, 1.8 steals per game.
G – Kyle Dranginis, Gonzaga, 4.3 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 3.9 assists, 1.1 steals.
Alas, there is not a single Kyle on any of the conference's 10 coaching staffs to guide these fellows. Applications are currently being accepted.
Wrong Arkansas school
As I was looking at the week ahead for WCC men's teams, I saw that Santa Clara hosts Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Tuesday at 7 p.m. at the Leavey Center. For a moment, my pulse quickened. In addition to being fixated on names, I am also mascot-obsessed, but in a good way. I only bother with the most unusual mascot names, like the Anteaters of UC Irvine, the Banana Slugs of UC Santa Cruz, the Stormy Petrels of Oglethorpe University and the Student Princes of Heidelberg, to name a few. To that list, add the Boll Weevils of … I thought it was Pine Bluff but I was wrong. The Boll Weevils belong to Arkansas-Monticello, the only school in the NCAA with a crop pest as a mascot. Oh, well. Play on.
Stat line of the week
In a 72-63 victory at Ball State, alma mater of David Letterman, Pepperdine's Stacy Davis had 16 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 blocked shot. In Pepperdine's two wins last week (Long Beach State was the other) Davis averaged 15.0 points, 11.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.5 blocks and recorded the 23rd and 24th double-doubles of his career. For that, the senior forward was named WCC Player of the Week.
Tweet of the week
Here's a member of Gonzaga's Kennel Club, Samantha Romeo, posing an interesting assignment:
Someone needs to make a collage of all of @kwiltj's game faces #GonzagaProblems
Quote of the week
"The win is huge considering all the things we had to go through -- long trip, lose three hours, short day, quick turnaround, game's at 1 o'clock. We talked about adversity at practice and our guys were mentally tough enough to fight through it."
That's Pepperdine's Davis, talking about his team's trip to Muncie IN., to play, and beat, Ball State.

SAN DIEGO, CALIF. (TheStreet) -- Thus far, Facebook (FB) is proving to be social media's overachiever for the digital holiday shopping season, driving higher average order values for online retailers at materially higher conversion rates than its seemingly more shopping-attuned rival Pinterest, according to the latest data compiled by IBM's (IBM) Digital Analytics Benchmark Hub.
Specifically, on Cyber Monday, Facebook referrals resulted in an average of $123.44 per order versus Pinterest referrals, which drove an average of $97.78 per order, for a difference 26.2%. The world's largest social network also converted digital browsers into buyers at a rate of 2.3% compared to 1.6% for Pinterest.

"Last holiday season, Pinterest really rose to prominence with a lot of fanfare. It is absolutely now a mainstay in the retailer's social media arsenal, but Facebook continues to be a workhorse from a social media perspective in terms of being able to drive conversion and drive high average order values," Jay Henderson, Director of IBM Smarter Commerce, told TheStreet.
To arrive at its data points, IBM gathered real-time transaction data across roughly 800 U.S. retail websites. The Cyber Monday data reflects transactions taking place during a 24-hour online shopping period between 12:00 a.m. PST (3:00 a.m. EST) and 12:00 a.m. PST (3:00 a.m. EST). The referral values for Facebook and Pinterest represent the average ticket price for purchases where a consumer started on a Facebook or Pinterest page and clicked through to a retailer site where he or she made a purchase. IBM did not measure Twitter (TWTR) referrals, Henderson said, because comparable data around same-session conversions was not available for tracking purposes.
Both Facebook and Pinterest improved the average order value of their referrals over Cyber Monday last year. In 2013, Facebook referrals drove an average of $97.81 per order while Pinterest referrals resulted an average of $92.40 per order on the online holiday, Henderson said.

A Super-Lightweight jQuery Toast Plugin
Looking for a lightweight toast jQuery plugin? Here's a super simple one I wrote for this site, called gtqToast. It minifies to just 520 bytes.
(function($) { 'use strict'; var $toastList = $('

').appendTo('body'); //register the plugin $.fn.gtqToast = function(options) { var settings = $.extend({}, {fade: 500, linger: 4000}, options), $toast = $('

') .appendTo($toastList), $container = $('

') .html(this) .appendTo($toast), height = $toast.height(); $container.hide(); $toast.css({display: 'none', position: 'static', visibility: 'visible', height: height}) .slideDown(160, function() { $container.fadeIn(settings.fade) .delay(settings.linger) .fadeOut(settings.fade, function() { $toast.remove(); }); }); }; $.gtqToast = function(text, options) { $('').text(text).gtqToast(options); }; })(jQuery);
It needs this bit of CSS as well (note that I assume you use a CSS reset, otherwise you'll want to add properties like
list-style: none):
#gtqToast { position: fixed; bottom: 10%; z-index: 102; text-align: center; width: 100%; } #gtqToast div { display: inline-block; background: rgba(0,0,0,0.75); color: #fff; font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; padding: 14px 20px; border-radius: 20px; box-shadow: 3px 3px 9px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.3); margin-top: 8px; }
What the plugin does: inserts an empty
ul (unordered list) tag into the DOM with a fixed bottom position 10% up from the bottom of the viewport. This list will hold the toasts. You can trigger a toast in two ways.
// #1, call on a jQuery object $('This is my toast').gtqToast(); // #2 call with text $.gtqToast('Another toast, yay!');
These calls will add the toast to our list and fade them in. If you look at the plugin code, I actually add a
div inside the
li to contain the toast message. Plus you'll notice some weird CSS changing. I did this to account for multiple toasts becoming visible at the same time. What will happen is, existing toasts will slide upward when a new toast is added, then the new toast will fade in.
There are only two settings you can change on this basic plugin: fade is the fade in/out speed, and linger is the length of time the toast will stay on the screen. The defaults should be fine for most cases.
Feel free to use this if it fits your needs!
New Project Launched: Spectacular.Gift
It began like this: Amazon.com's vast product catalog contains many clever and unique items, the sort that you may not know you wanted until you've heard of it. Alternately, these items might make an ideal gift when shopping for the person "who already has everything". So I figured it would be a neat idea to curate a collection of these items and build a gift recommendation site around them. Doing so would allow me to explore some new server-side technologies and help keep my skills fresh.
Technologies used:
- Ubuntu VPS from Linode
- Apache2 HTTP server
- Apache Tomcat 7
- Apache ActiveMQ
- Spring 3.1 with Spring MVC
- PostgreSQL 9.3
- jQuery, flot, TinyMCE
- Java libraries such as Joda Time, Jsoup, Jackson, Logback, and Commons DBCP
- Amazon Product Advertising API
- Reddit REST API
To get some data populated in the database as a starting point, I set up a scheduled task to pull data from several Reddit forums where Amazon links are shared. Reddit conveniently makes this data available via their REST API. All products discovered in this way are set to unapproved status pending manual review.
Next, I set up another scheduled task to populate and refresh metadata about the products via Amazon's Product Advertising API. Per Amazon's terms in order to display price information, this data has to be refreshed hourly. For efficiency I request data on batches of ten products at a time, which is the maximum limit.
I created a manual process for reviewing and approving products to be shown. This process includes writing a custom description, adding relevant tags (e.g. "For Kids" or "Gadget Lovers"), and setting an age range and gender specificity (if applicable).
The UI is written in JSP and outputs HTML5. Some features are powered by javascript, such as the price history button which uses flot to render the graph of historical price data.
Spring 3.1 ties it all together. Spring MVC handles the front-end. Spring JDBC is used for interacting with PostgreSQL. I could have used Spring's event system, but I wanted to get some experience with ActiveMQ. There are a number of message senders and listeners set up for events such as "price changed" or "product suggested".
I'll probably think of a snappier name eventually, but for now I registered http://spectacular.gift (new ".gift" TLD). Have a look if you like! It's basically in beta, and I'm still adding new products and tags.
Web Page Optimization – Changes I Made for Page Loading Speed
It has been years since I optimized the page loading speed at GoToQuiz. At that time, image sprites and CSS/javascript minification were the state of the art. In the intervening years, though, further progress has been made. Of particular note is the "retirement" of older versions of Internet Explorer, and the emergence of CSS3 and HTML5, which allows developers the ability to further streamline their sites. So as I am in the process of revamping the UI, I'm taking advantage of the latest techniques to boost page loading speed. Be aware, this is nothing revolutionary–this blog post is simply an overview of which changes I'm making, and why.
Migrating pages over to HTML5 allows the markup to be more semantic while taking fewer bytes–a double win. Using tags such as nav, section and article helps alleviate so-called "div-itis", allowing cleaner markup and a smaller overall filesize. HTML5 also follows the maxim of "convention over configuration", letting you eliminate unnecessary attributes like type="text/javascript" on script tags, for example.
The adoption of CSS3 has provided many possibilities for creating beautiful visual effects without using image files. Here is an example: on an early iteration of the design of the various headings on GoToQuiz, I used this sprite combined with CSS to create the rounded color bar appearance.
Simple, Light-Weight Radio Button Replacement jQuery Plugin
Here's the plugin code, with comments:
(function($) { // source: http://www.gotoquiz.com/web-coding/ 'use strict'; //the plugin $.fn.niceRadio = function(options) { if (this.length !== 0) { //initialize settings & vars var settings = $.extend( { baseClass: 'nr_base', focusClass: 'nr_focus', checkedClass: 'nr_checked'}, options), $radios = this, $aset = $(); $radios.each(function(i, el) { var $radio = $(el), //create an anchor per radio that will be our radio replacement $a = $(''); //give each radio a custom class with a counter (nr_r#) for easy lookup $radio.addClass('nr_r'+ i) //store the counter value as data as well .data('nrId', i) //insert the anchor immediately after the radio .after($a) //hide the radio visually .css({position: 'absolute', 'margin-left': -2999}); //if radio was already checked, add the checked class to it's replacement if ($radio.is(':checked')) $a.addClass(settings.checkedClass); //collect the set of anchors as they are created $aset = $aset.add($a); }); //when an anchor is clicked... $aset.click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); //$clicked is the anchor var $clicked = $(this), //$checked is the radio to be checked $checked = $('.nr_r'+ $clicked.data('nrId')); //check it $checked.prop('checked', true) //focus it .focus() //trigger the change event on it .change(); }); //when a radio received focus, add the focus class to its replacement $radios.focus(function() { $('#nr_a'+ $(this).data('nrId')).addClass(settings.focusClass); }) //when a radio loses focus, remove the focus class from it's replacement .blur(function() { $('#nr_a'+ $(this).data('nrId')).removeClass(settings.focusClass); }) //when a radio is changed, call the changeEvent function .change(function() { changeEvent($(this)); }); return $radios; } //called when a radio selection changes function changeEvent($radio) { //if $radio is checked... if ($radio.prop('checked')) { //remove checked class from any other anchor associated with //radios of the same name $('.nr_for_'+ $radio.attr('name')).removeClass(settings.checkedClass); //add checked class to this radio's replacement $('#nr_a'+ $radio.data('nrId')).addClass(settings.checkedClass); } else $('#nr_a'+ $radio.data('nrId')).removeClass(settings.checkedClass); } }; })(jQuery);
This requires some CSS rules, which might look like:
.nr_base { display: inline-block; height: 16px; width: 16px; background: transparent url(radio_sprite.png) no-repeat 0 0; vertical-align: middle; } .nr_checked { background-position: -16px 0; } .nr_focus { outline: 1px dotted #555; } .nr_checked.nr_focus { outline: none; }
Minified, this radio replacement plugin shrinks to under 1KB. It handles tabbing and focus properly, for both screen readers and keyboard users. It handles radio changes via clicking associated labels. And by using an anchor tag to hold the radio replacement image, it handles the odd browser that does not treat labels as clickable (a problem with some of the other radio replacement plugins I encountered).
Feel free to use this plugin as you like, and I hope it proves useful! Let me know if you find any bugs or particular browser quirks.
Log SQL Statements With Parameter Values Filled In (Spring JDBC)
If you're using parameterized queries with Spring JDBC (and why wouldn't you?), it's easy to log them with a simple
log.debug() statement. But your logged statements will be full of ?'s instead of the values, which makes them much less useful. Suppose you'd like to know what was substituted for those question marks. It's not so difficult if you use AspectJ. Here is what is needed:
- aspectjrt.jar and aspectjweaver.jar from here.
- An aspect with a pointcut on the JdbcOperations interface, which
@Beforeadvice that intercepts the execution of
JdbcTemplatemethods and logs de-parameterized SQL statements.
- Configuration of Spring applicationContext.xml to get it working.
Let's start off with our class:
@Aspect public class SqlLogger { private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(SqlLogger.class);
Here, I'm using an
org.slf4j.Logger, but any logging framework will work.
Next step is to add the method that will capture the SQL and parameters as they are executed. Again, I'm using Spring JDBC, so all calls are made to an object that implements
JdbcOperations. We can set up our class to spy on all relevant calls by defining our method like so:
Make Rainbow-Colored Lists (and other HTML elements) – jQuery plugin
How to make rainbow-colored lists? I started searching for a solution and found a plugin for rainbow text, which inspired me to write my own jQuery plugin to rainbow-ify lists and other sets of HTML elements.
I'm used to working with RGB hex color codes. But there is no intuitive way to generate a spectrum of color using RGB, so I turned to HSL (hue, saturation and lightness). Most modern browsers support colors specified with
hsl(hue, saturation%, lightness%), although IE versions prior to 9 do not. So I started out using HSL, adding IE support later. I found that keeping the saturation and lightness constant at 100% and 80% respectively while increasing the hue in steps produces a really nice rainbow effect.
Let's back up a bit. Consider the following styled list:
I'd like to color this list to look like a rainbow. Using CSS alone is unwieldy; without knowing in advance the number of elements in the list, it's impossible. We need to use Javascript to get this result:
Here's how I did it–my rainbow plugin code (~1KB when minified):
jQuery Shake Plugin to, er, Make Elements Shake
I wanted to make a submit button shake back and forth when the form input is invalid, signaling the user that there was a problem. Simple enough. So I googled around for an existing solution, but the jquery plugins I found only made elements vibrate like crazy. I wanted a left-right shake.
Well it turned out to be very easy to implement myself. Minified, my shake jquery plugin is less than 0.5KB. Here's a demo page. Here's the code:
(function($) { 'use strict'; //the plugin call $.shake = $.fn.shake = function(options) { if (this.length !== 0) { //initialize settings & vars var settings = $.extend( { distance: 12, iterations: 3, duration: 160, easing: 'swing'}, options), $shakeThis = this; return $shakeThis.each(function(i, el) { var $el = $(el), marg = ($el.parent().width() / 2) - ($el.outerWidth() / 2); $el.css('margin-left', marg); for (var j = 0; j < settings.iterations; j++) leftRight($el, marg); $el.animate({'margin-left': marg}, settings); }); } function leftRight($el, marg) { $el.animate({'margin-left': (marg - settings.distance)}, settings) .animate({'margin-left': (marg + settings.distance)}, settings); } }; })(jQuery);
Distribute Android App From Your Own Web Server
Listing your app on Google Play or another centralized app store may not make sense for your situation. This was the case for me when I created an app for small web community, which would be meaningless for anyone else. There's nothing stopping you from simply uploading the .apk file to your web server and linking to it, though. And that's what I did.
One thing I discovered is that not all devices will recognize the file as an installable app based on the file extension alone. You must ensure you send the proper mime type. You can achieve this for Apache by associating the correct mime type with .apk files. Adding this line to .htaccess will do the trick:
AddType application/vnd.android.package-archive apk
When a user clicks a link to the file, their device will download it. There will be a "download complete" notification when completed. Clicking this will grant the option to install the app. It's a process that is likely to be unfamiliar to your users, but it's not too complicated.
One thing you lose is the automatic management of app updates that Google Play provides. Your users will have to manually download the latest version of the app and install again, which thankfully is handled properly at that point by Android–that is to say, it's treated as an upgrade to a newer version rather than a clean install. Consider adding some type of notification to the app's functionality that will alert users to perform an update if their app version is not the latest.
How To Make an Android Home Screen Widget Update Only When Visible
Depending on the nature of your home screen widget, you may want it to stay closely synched to real-time data. It would be nice if Android fired a system event that you could register for whenever your widget is visible on the screen. However, Android does not do this, and could not be counted upon to do so in any case because some users may be using a 3rd party alternative to the default home screen.
You'd like to update your widget early and often, at times when the user might be looking at it. But you want to prevent it from updating (and wasting resources) when the user is not engaged. There is a way to achieve this. This technique isn't perfect, because it will cause your widget to update even when hidden behind another running app, but that much is unavoidable. (Note to Google: an isWidgetVisible() method would be great!)
I'm going to describe how I used a Service to update my web community widget only when the screen is on. The java classes involved are:
- MRPWidget (extends AppWidgetProvider)
- WidgetUpdate (extends IntentService)
- MRPAlarmReceiver (extends BroadcastReceiver)
I described the MRPWidget class here: creating an Android home screen widget. Now I will describe how the Service is used to update the widget.
Android Home Screen Widget: Creating the AppWidgetProvider
Extending AppWidgetProvider is a simple way to encapsulate your app's management of your home screen widget. It provides several widget life cycle methods you can override to handle such events as a user adding or removing the widget from their home screen. It also provides an onUpdate method that ties into the periodic updates the Android system will trigger for your widget. For my purposes, I disabled this periodic updating because I wanted to control it myself via a Service.
Your AppWidgetProvider interacts with the widget via the RemoteViews class. The widget is itself hosted in a separate process from the one in which your app runs, and RemoteViews provides methods to cross that gap, update the views and add click listeners. Note that RemoteViews methods provide only a limited subset of view functionality, and this may restrict what you'd like to do with your widget. For example, animations are not supported.
I'm going to describe how I created my web community widget. The java classes involved are:
- MRPWidget (extends AppWidgetProvider)
- WidgetUpdate (extends IntentService)
- MRPAlarmReceiver (extends BroadcastReceiver)
My widget class is named MRPWidget, and it extends AppWidgetProvider. All visual updates to the widget are handled by this class, as well as starting the service that will perform the updates. For example, when the widget is enabled it should start the service: Read more
Creating an Android Home Screen Widget
The home screen of a smartphone is precious real estate. As users interact with their phone throughout the day, the icons and widgets on the home screen are constantly seen and ready to be interacted with at a moment's notice. Offering a widget for your app, service or web site is therefore a uniquely compelling way to to boost its visibility and "stickiness."
One site that I've built is a small online community where people interact mainly via message boards and private messages. I had already built a simple Android app that users could install to notify them whenever there is a new reply or message. But to take this app to the next level, I needed to add a home screen widget.
This widget would stay updated with the most recent post made on the site as well as show the names of the users currently active. In this way, the widget would effectively be a small window into what was going on at the site at any given moment. Clicking the widget should take you directly to that latest post, logging you in automatically. Finally, the widget should also visually alert you to any pending unread messages. It should do all this while taking up as small a footprint as possible, as smartphone users are reluctant to give up too much of their screen to a single widget.
So there are a number of challenges, each of which must be resolved. Which specific data must be displayed on the widget (we want as much as possible without forcing a larger footprint)? How to retrieve that data from the web site? How to keep the data fresh while minimizing battery and data usage? How to take the user to the correct page when the widget is clicked? How to make the widget visually appealing? This last one is difficult, speaking as someone who is not a graphic designer, but I gave it a solid try. 🙂
So in the next few posts I'll go into how I created an Android widget. But first please have a look at it:
The footprint is 2×1 cells on the home screen. The top half displays the latest post on the site, alongside the user's icon, with the user's name ("Example User") followed by the message board it was posted to. The bottom half lists the names of currently-active users. Had there been more than can fit on one line, the text here would scroll as a marquee. Not shown is a hidden middle section that expands to notify of unread post replies and private messages. All of this is displayed atop a semi-transparent 9-patch image that stretches to encompass the content.
More details on crafting this widget to follow.
Configure Lucene IndexWriter and IndexSearcher in Spring applicationContext.xml
Problem: you want to define Lucene IndexWriter and IndexSearcher as beans inside your Spring application to be injected/autowired into other beans.
Solution: follow the following steps.
- define the Lucene version as a constant
- define a Lucene analyzer (StandardAnalyzer) as a bean
- define a Lucene directory as a bean, using a factory-method for instantiation
- define an IndexWriter, wiring in the Lucene directory and an IndexWriterConfig set to use your previously-defined analyzer
- define an IndexSearcher, wiring in the Lucene directory
- define also a query parser (StandardQueryParser), wiring in the analyzer bean
You can then wire/autowire these beans into your application beans, for example:

…what if you could fill those empty tee times within the next 10 minutes. Imagine having a list of eager golfers who can't wait to book your tee times… that are loyal patrons of your club week in and week out… And the best part is—you don't risk a dime for trying out this new trademarked system...
Perhaps this is you ...
- …YOU are sick of third parties stealing your tee times and selling them for dirt-cheap... YOU want to book more tee times for the price you choose…
- …YOU are tired of golfers playing your competitors—and you're ready to see better golfers playing your course more often…
- …YOU feel that heavy third party discounting is killing the price you can charge for a round of golf... Imagine attracting more golfers that are NOT price sensitive … and willing to pay more for a round at your course…
- …YOU are worried golfers are turning to GolfNow.com, and other discounters to buy tee times rather than you. Imagine filling 80% of your tee sheet without using these rack rate vampires…
- …YOU use GolfNow.com, golf18network.com, teeoff.com, lastminutegolfer.com, groupon.com, and other discounters because you need help filling tee times. Soon you'll be waving goodbye FOREVER to all the money-sucking discounters…
- …YOU may be concerned about the financial instability of your golf course... Finally YOU can do something about it … —YOU can start making a good living in the golf business starting today…
But I must warn you, what you're about to read next may shock you…
What every golf course operator ought to know about "Old Tom Morris"
GolfNow.com's "Old Tom Morris" continues to cause irreversible damage to the price course operators can charge for a round of golf. In a recent advertisement on national TV, Old Tom Morris describes golf course rates as "preposterous"…
…Old Tom Morris is criticizing golf course pricing. And as you may know, GolfNow.com is owned by Golf Channel who is owned by multi-billion dollar media GIANT NBC… With a bottomless advertising budget to implant negative pricing perceptions in the minds of millions of golfers… it's like David against Goliath…
...More, GolfNow.com bought out LastMinuteGolfer.com which will be used as GolfNow.com's sister website to sell tee times within 48 hours for as low as $4/player. These courses normally charge $40, $50, or $60+ (Now that's "preposterous"(!). Profitability is dead as a dodo so long as you participate in this discount war.
But it's not your fault that GolfNow.com's multimillion-dollar budget is stealing your golfers with clever advertising, sneaky salesmen, and ridiculously cheap golf... They are part of a global, multi-billion dollar media company with a bottomless budget…
Here's the good news: You can beat GolfNow.com at their own game … you can attract golfers that are not price shoppers … and you can watch your profits skyrocket.
Course Owner Cracks the Code
You may not know me, but by the time you're done reading this page you'll be glad we met.
I am a golf course owner as well. My family has been in the golf business for over 20 years. I know what you're going through... and right now I am helping golf course owners and operators like you beat GolfNow.com and you can join these courses.
I've worked with golf courses across the globe, from Golf Digest Top 100 Courses to Mom and Pop Clubs, created over $500,000 worth of marketing and advertising, and, in many cases, turned each $100 into $600, $700, and even $1,000.
Today I am the most sought after golf course marketing consultant famous for creating wildly profitable promotions with NO money out of pocket…
I help golf courses eliminate wasted marketing spend, tear away from third party discounters, and STOP making stupid, costly marketing mistakes...
Now you know who I am, and who I help… Let me explain how we can add more golfers to your tee sheet daily.
Apply this course-tested system
to start filling tee times tomorrow
The system I am about to give you is quite simple … It is clever. It is powered by the most intimate form of communication, yet most underused... (It's NOT what you think!)
…which creates an incredible advantage for you.
Imagine selling tee times ON-DEMAND. Whenever you want... Imagine golfers so loyal they rarely want to play anywhere else…
Plus, get these benefits:
- Say goodbye to time consuming emails.
- Do AWAY with costly advertising.
- Stop spending money on expensive marketing.
- QUIT trading tee times.
- No gimmicks. No catch. EVER.
Attract Golfers That Want to Play YOUR COURSE
…at the price and times you choose!
Imagine how good you will feel beating golfnow.com … with your own genius tee time selling system. (So you're NOT giving away golf through a third party... you can STOP destroying your price integrity… and QUIT eroding your profits.)
You can finally watch play and profits stack-up by...
Leveraging what may be the Most Powerful "FORGOTTEN" Business Principal Known to Mankind
In 1906 Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto discovered the "law of the vital few". The 80/20 Power Principal applies to almost everything you can count…
Here's a great example.
Studies conducted by the Boston Consulting Group in 2012 reveal the 80/20 principal holds true with golfers… According to the recent study, 26% of golfers are "Avid" playing 25+ rounds per year. Consequently, that 26% of golfers account for 76% of total rounds played.
Think about your best customers … approximately 20% are responsible for 80% of your revenue … now imagine if you could double, triple, or even quadruple these core customers.
What would your bottom line look like? At the very least it would double, wouldn't it?
This is your chance to discover a system that identifies 20% of customers that drive 80% of your revenues… and DOUBLE this customer segment—resulting in more "Avid" golfers in your area preferring your course and spending more money with you… turning your customers into course evangelists …
The Masters Club™ is a loyalty program, similar to the model used by billion dollar companies such as AAA, Sam's Club, and Costo but for golfers–and much more lucrative … immediately The Masters Club identifies your very best customers … it seeks out enthusiastic golfers in your area and it positions your golf course as the "go-to" place to play, find a game, and to meet other golfers.
As you can imagine … when you have a club where golfers meet other golfers, where you can communicate offers with these core clients within 5 minutes on an intimate level … you can sell more tee times and bring more golfers through your door than you ever thought possible!
The Masters Club weeds out the discount seekers and creates loyal patrons… Lessening price resistance—so you can charge more for golf. It eliminates middlemen rack rate vampires… and creates a social network of golfers who want to meet other golfers and play your course…
… The benefits to your golf course are nearly endless if you are the first in your area to rollout The Masters Club™.
Golfers won't want to play anywhere else!
If you go on doing what you're doing now
you are very likely to go on getting the
same results you are getting now
You can't rely on third parties; on the economy to rebound, and hope more people take of up the game to pay your bills and your salary. It's not a safe bet … 400,000 golfers quit in 2014. Five hundred golf pros fired from Dick's… Wouldn't you like to take matters into your own hands?
Listen: We are all in the golf business for ONE REASON … to make a good living, live a good life, and provide for our families and ourselves.
This is your turn to control your destiny in the golf business just like Jim, Dave, Scott, Mark, Jessica, and many others have…
Jim was a lot like you and I… He had his doubts. He had been burnt in the past by "gurus" and "consultants" and the local ad reps… But Jim couldn't pass up my I-R-R-E-S-I-S-T-I-B-L-E risk free offer. He sat his doubts aside and watched $29,743.00 accumulate in his bank account over 29 days. ALL PROFIT.Jim Mason
Pendleton Golf Club
Dave was also skeptical at first. He didn't have a penny to waste on marketing that would not bring him a good Return On Investment… but he needed help selling his program, fast! Dave hired me and as a result we were able to sell $24,753.00 worth of golf in 10 days… in the middle of winter online!Dave Bachmann Jr.
The Bull at Pinehurst Farms
Are these course owners and operators any different than you? No they are not. They represent people just like you and I who want a better way to make a good living in the golf business. The one thing they did was put their doubts aside and gave working with me a try.
If you too can sit your doubts aside for a short time, you will soon discover the power of The Masters Club™
Your message will NO LONGER fall on deaf ears as with old email inboxes... Opt-outs. Spam complaints … and emails that are not read for days… by that time your unfilled tee times are long passed... You missed your opportunity to sell those tee times ... and as a result you lost $1,000s...
When you match the right offer to the right golfers at exactly the right time with the right medium you will EXPERIENCE TEE TIME SELLING POWER like never before… without high pressure sales, without annoying emails, and without heavy discounting!!!
At Last! You will have complete control to fill your tee sheet when you want!

... And if you are wondering whether or not I can get you results, you might want to watch this video before you apply...
This Is NOT For Everybody.
Here's Who I CAN Help:
I'm very happy to sit aside time to give you The Masters Club blueprint. However, I want to be sure you meet the criteria below before scheduling a call with me … so our time is NOT wasted:
You must be willing to take my advice.
If your tee sheet is already full, you don't need me. However, if you have gaps in your tee sheet, if you want to charge more for golf, and if you want stronger loyalty and greater share of wallet, I can help.
You must have a good golf course.
This offer is for courses who have a nice facility. If your course is without grass, has a bad reputation, or not "up to par" this opportunity is not for you.
You must have at least 2,000 emails.
The larger your list, the better. As long as you have at least 2,000 responsive golfers on your email list, we can easily sign up Masters Club Members by the droves. These new Members will be eager to meet other golfers, play more, and refer their friends to your course.
You must be the decision maker.
That means you must be the General Manager, Director, Owner, etc., and have the authority to hire me if we choose to work together. As much as I'd like to talk to everyone who requests a call, I just don't have time.
That's it! Those are all my requirements...
Here's What I Want You To Do Next
If you meet the criteria above and would like for me to give you my blueprint so you can beat all the third party discounters, eliminate your competition, and create a sustainable advantage for decades to come, then I'll happily set aside some time for you.
Here's how the process works:
First, you'll need to fill out an application. Don't worry, it's simple and takes less than two minutes. I just need to know more about your golf course, website, facebook page, and current list.
Here's What Will Happen After That
Once I have your application, you will have the opportunity to schedule a 45 – 60 minute call with me—NO COST. NO OBLIGATION.
During our call I reveal The Masters Club blueprint and deliver a plan to bring you more eager golfers and profits immediately. If you see value in the system, the plan, and working with me, personally, great! We can talk about you becoming a client.
And if you don't want to become a client, that's okay too. Rest assured, your time will not be wasted either way… You're backed by my:
Schedule a call with me, 100% at my risk. If the plan doesn't have you tickled pink, ready to do away with third party discounters, and eager to start selling more tee times next week… free your mind from worry forever… you will have my blueprint so you can roll out the plan yourself… and there will NEVER be pressure from me to become a client…
… And in the HIGHLY UNLIKELY EVENT you feel I wasted your time, I'll write you a check for $200 immediately.
You literally cannot lose here.
(By the way – I've never had anyone feel like his or her time was wasted. EVER. That's why I continue to make this offer.)
This opportunity is extremely limited because of the intense one-on-one time needed in order to rollout The Masters Club at your course. By next week you can start selling more tee times … and have an edge over competitors that will keep them baffled for years if you take action now.
It is physically impossible for me to work with more than a handful of clients … therefore only a small number of course owners can benefit.
You will have a great ADVANTAGE if your golf course is the first to rollout The Masters Club.
Also, you should realize there's a very large demand for personal one-on-one help from me, therefore:
What I'm offering you is
If YOU would like to double, triple, or quadruple the top 20% of your customers that are responsible for 80% of your revenue…
…If YOU are ready to take your tee sheet back into your own hands and STOP trading away your inventory allowing third parties determine the value of your course…
…. If YOU are ready to REPLACE EMPTY tee times quickly and easily with 10, 20, 50 or even 100 or more golfers EVERY WEEK …
… If YOU are ready to quit wasting money on marketing and advertising that doesn't work and RISK NOTHING by adding a new system you can use to immediately start selling more tee times for absolutely NO COST from your pocket…
I would like to invite you to get on a
FREE call with me
I give you a blueprint to finally beat GolfNow.com at their own game, so you can sell more tee times quickly, easily, and cheaply without third parties. At the end of this planning session, one of three things will happen:
You will love the plan
and choose to implement it on your own. In which case, I wish you the best, and I hope you will keep in touch and let me know how it goes.
You will love the plan
and ask to become my client, so I can personally execute the plan for you, maximize your results, and you can start to profit from The Masters Club system by the end of next week. If that's the case, we will knock it out of the park… and that's a promise. You will see the gaps in your tee sheet disappear—tee times pouring in … and eager golfers coming through your doors by the droves…
If you feel I wasted your time, I will send you $200 as payment immediately
No questions asked. Your time is the most valuable asset you have, and I promise not to waste it.
It really is that simple
and there's NO OBLIGATION
Think about this.
The "worst" that can happen is you get $200 for "wasting" 45-60 minutes of your time.
The best thing that can happen is we quadruple your core customer base, lowering price resistance—allowing you to sell more tee times, faster, for more than you are charging now.
As you can imagine, I will get a lot of interest from this offer.
If you want to implement a system that will benefit your golf course for many years to come with absolutely NO RISK TO YOU, click here. Leave your application with me and lets talk.
Talk soon,
Jordan Hansen, President
Ace Golf Marketing
You're still reading, which leads me to believe you would like to create a competitive advantage for your course… Selling more tee times, closing those costly gaps, strengthening golfer loyalty, and increasing the number of avid golfers that prefer your course—doubling your share of wallet…
… Imagine how much more you will profit from an extra 10, 20, or 30 golfers everyday. You can have more golfers when you sit your doubts aside for a short time. I give you the blueprint, for FREE. All the risk is on me here. If you love The Masters Club, we can talk about working together. If you want to implement the system on your own, that's fine too. Either way you come out ahead and there won't be any pressure from me.
If you are like me, very busy, and scrolled to the bottom of this page without reading... here's the deal:
- You're about to discover a new system to beat golfnow.com. You can leverage this system in house quickly, easily, and it won't cost you anything to get the blueprint.
- Finally—You can double your core customer base over the next 30 days… and double, triple, or quadruple your profits without spending a dollar out of pocket.
- Leverage the most powerful "forgotten" business principal ever discovered to attract droves of avid golfers to your course – making other courses become irrelevant while increasing your share of wallet…
- Fill empty tee times faster than a speeding bullet with this unconventional (and overlooked) method your competitors probably aren't using YET!
- I have set aside some time to talk to you, personally. On our call, I GIVE YOU the blueprint to boost your course's profits immediately. You will sustain a competitive advantage over your competitors for many years to come…
- There is NO OBLIGATION… if you like the system, we can talk about working together. If you feel like I wasted your time on the call, I will pay you $200 immediately. You simply cannot lose.
You should know that the reason I'm able to do such a good job and get such great results for my clients is because I only work with a small handful of them at a time.
As much as I'd like to work with "everyone", I simply cannot accept more than a few clients and still maintain the level of service you NEED to get the results we want.
There are close to 30,000 golf course owners, operators, and managers in my network, and my time to work privately with clients is extremely limited.
I have a few spots available to help serious golf course owners and operators.
I'm sure you are excited to sell more tee times, attract better players, become the Social HUB for golfers throughout your area, and dominate your competition without risking anything and without paying a penny from your pocket…
…Click here, leave your application—get my blueprint for free—you'll wonder how you ever managed without it…
*** Conversations are granted on first come, first serve basis. ***

Let me introduce myself. My name is Mark Sisson. I'm 63 years young. I live and work in Malibu, California. In a past life I was a professional marathoner and triathlete. Now my life goal is to help 100 million people get healthy. I started this blog in 2006 to empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigating, discussing, and critically rethinking everything we've assumed to be true about health and wellness...Tell Me More
This week's award goes to Chili's for something unusual they have included on their menu. We aren't about to suggest you go out and order their baby back ribs with a side of cheesecake. What we are excited about is that they actually list nutritional information for some of their entrees right on the menu. In the "Guiltless Grill" section they list calories, total carbs, total fat, saturated fat, and fiber for each item. Now if we could only persuade them to make the nutritional facts for the rest of their menu items as accessible. "Fat chance," you say? Well, we won't hold our breath, but we would love to see this kind of openness become a trend at all major restaurants. As long as the purveyors of food make it difficult to access nutritional info for their menu items, we can only assume they have something to hide. I don't know about you, but I'm not too keen on eating food from an establishment that has something to hide.
What do you think?

She is in her diaper in the a/c she seems fine now.
My little ones always got hot during the night. Our youngest still does. We call him a little toaster oven.
She seems fuzzy and wont eat, just breast milk, crackers and a little of juice. I did notice she has a top tooth coming in.
Teething could keep her from eating if she's in pain. As long as she continues to drink and eat a little bit...just watch her and call your doctor with any concerns. Is she still playing and doing normal baby things?
Yea she still plays and seems active.

While many ways exist to deter deer from eating weeping trees, such as fencing and sprays, they tend to be costly and time consuming. The easiest method is to select varieties of weeping trees unappealing to deer.
Weeping Tree Characteristics
Trees with a weeping growth habit have an arching form, with branches cascading from the crown. Their unusual form lends a note of grace to a landscape, and they are frequently used as accent plants.
Deer-Resistant Trees
Deer-resistant trees are those that deer do not prefer to eat, due to an unpleasant flavor or odor, thorns or sharp leaves. These plants survive easier in areas with a high deer population.
Varieties of deer-resistant weeping trees include golden weeping willow, flowering dogwood, weeping cherry, weeping European beech, weeping Candied Red crabapple, weeping white pines and weeping Norway spruce. These varieties are eaten infrequently by deer and are good choices for a landscape where deer browsing is a problem.

Employment can offer many more advantages to a person with Down syndrome than simply a source of income. Work gives structure, a sense of purpose, feelings of competency and pride whilst offering an opportunity to learn new things and meet new people. Work can fulfil the need for an individual to be productive, can promote independence, enhance self-esteem, and allow for participation in the mainstream of life.
There are several options to consider when thinking about employment. The different employment styles have advantages and disadvantages that will need to be considered when deciding on a suitable employment pathway. Different styles of employment schemes have been implemented to provide training and support to enable adults with intellectual disabilities to work in ordinary work situations with varying levels of inclusion. Some individuals with Down syndrome are working full time others have a mixture of activities during the week.
For a person who is interested in employment in a mainstream job in the open job market, Centrelink should be contacted for an assessment of capacity to work, to register as interested in work and to determine the supports needed to achieve this goal.
Employment in the open market is commonly obtained through the support of a Disability Employment Services (DES). DES provider organisations are contracted by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations.
A DES can assist job seekers to gain and maintain employment in the open employment market. They provide training, job placement and on-the-job support.

Job Access is an Australian Government initiative which provides workplace adjustments and solutions for open employment.
Some school leavers undertake a course in Transition to Employment (TTE) to gain additional skills to become work ready.
Formerly referred to as Sheltered Workshops. Find an ADE http://www.ade.org.au/ades-directory/ade-interactive-map ADE's are organisations that provide employment opportunities for people with a disability or disadvantaged people to work in a protective, segregated environment. While there are opportunities to complete real work and be taught new skills, the work is often described as repetitive and unchallenging and the wages are remarkably low.
A group of people with disabilities who visit different work sites in the local community undertaking a variety of different tasks, with a supervisor. These may be primarily in one skill area, like lawn mowing crews, or may be across a range of activities e.g. in the horticultural and agricultural area, or cleaning services. These crews are usually part of an ADE.
A group of people with disabilities work in one company. The work enclave model is similar to that of mobile work crews except that work enclaves are not mobile. Both Mobile Work Crews and Work Enclaves predominantly run on a co-operative basis, with monies earned being shared amongst the crew after expenses have been deducted.
Youth Point is a free early intervention employment initiative developed by the IMVC. It aims to support young people to access real jobs - and improve their opportunity to build relationships and linkages with employers.
Youth Point will provide 15-25 year olds with direct access to casual, part-time, full-time, traineeship, apprenticeship, volunteering and work experience opportunities.

Down Syndrome Victoria is working to improve access to employment for people who have Down Syndrome. Thanks to the Sunsuper Dreams for a better world campaign in early 2015, we have been able to develop a resource to assist employers to consider employing people who have Down syndrome.

What I dislike about the company
So many things taken away. Hundreds of sick leave hours taken away, same with vacation. People worked for many years to earn those hours. Now short term disability starts at just two weeks. Hours extended with no increase in staff. Now they are charging for checking accounts and credit cards if you don't have credit. Not bad credit, no credit. May as well go to a bank.

Fleming Names New CFO
DALLAS - Leading grocery distributor Fleming Cos. Inc. has named Mark Shapiro as its chief financial officer, the company said last week.
DALLAS - Leading grocery distributor Fleming Cos. Inc. has named Mark Shapiro as its chief financial officer, the company said last week. Shapiro, 43, will replace current CFO Neal Rider, who was named to the new position of executive vice president, business and operations development.
Shapiro joined the company last year after serving as CFO of Big Lots Inc.
Supporting Rider will be Matt Hildreth, 37, who will become the senior VP of business development, and Chris Walsh, 38, VP, marketing, convenience distribution. Hildreth, currently the senior VP, finance and treasurer, will focus on designing new sales structures and helping to lead new sales growth. Walsh will focus on advancing and improving procurement processes.
Rider, Hildreth, Walsh and Shapiro will assume their new positions as of February 2003.
"These management appointments are the next logical step in our strategic plan," said chairman and CEO Mark Hansen. "By making these appointments, and preserving our flat organizational structure, we can better capitalize on the depth and experience of our management team. We will also be in a better position to implement our objectives of growing the core business, paying down debt by generating free cash flow and optimizing centralized procurement and the integration of our technology investments," he said.
In November Fleming said the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission had begun an informal inquiry, including examining several accounting issues.
Fleming has said it would cooperate fully with the SEC.

About last night...
I'm doing some business with a bunch of Japanese bankers over in Bangkok right now, and this includes hosting the evening activities.
They've slowly progressed into more debauchery as the week has moved on, with last nights achievement being one of the senior bods catching ping pong balls shot out of a birds minge into his pint glass, and then drinking from it. He then pocketed the balls to give to his daughter in Tokyo as she "likes ping pong".
They've said to me today that we should "go for a drink", which basically means that in about 3 hours time, they're going to be absolutely ****-faced with a ladyboys c0ck smacking on the back of their heads whilst standing up and toasting anything and everything.
What gets me is that next morning, they're all suited and booted and continuing as if nothing has happened, where I'm getting more and more red-eyed, stinking like a tramp and sh1tting through the eye of a needle.
Truthfully never seen anything like it. Absolutely bonkers.

They're weird that's why.
Re: About last night...
Memories of breakfasting on a Korean/Japanese compound in Vietnam and they were passing round beer and vodka. Pisshead as I am they thought I was a lightweight for not joining in. I mean I've gone to work still sloshed from the night before but to start with it
Re: About last night...
Worse. Far, far worse. I lost the youngster about 2am, and found him in the corner of Old Skool (if you know the Soi's, you know what I mean).
A few high fives and waiting awkwardly until he'd finished was a unique experience, especially as started talking about securing the deal whilst he pulled up his trousers.
One of them managed to rip (or cut, not sure) open his loafers, and reanacted a puppet show that must be popular in Japan by sticking them on his hands and shouting at the top of lungs. Pretty normal drunken behaviour that tbf, unless of course you're sitting in a Michelin restaurant at 20.30 in the evening.
Re: About last night...
"I was so surprised by what a party of men did whilst on business in Bangkok. And at no point did I join in, honest".
Does Mrs PF ever browse this forum?
Good work, by the way

Legend of the Five Rings History
This is the first part of a concise, if necessarily imprecise, history of Rokugan
At the dawn of time, the nine children of the Sun and Moon fell to earth, becoming at that moment less than gods, but still far more than mortals. Eight of them fell together; the ninth, Fu Leng, fell some distance from the others. The first eight formed an empire, installing Hantei I as the Emperor. The other seven brothers and sisters gathered clans about themselves, naming them the Crab, the Crane, the Dragon, the Lion, the Phoenix, the Scorpion and the Unicorn.
Suddenly, Fu Leng reappeared at the border of the Empire leading a huge army of goblins, undead, and foul creatures from the Shadowlands, the dark place where he had fallen. Fu Leng's army attacked the fledgling Empire, defeating the clan armies again and again.
When complete defeat looked inevitable, a mortal man named Shinsei approached Emperor Hantei and asked for seven mortals, one from each clan, to follow him into the Shadowlands to defeat Fu Leng. These seven brave warriors became known as the Seven Thunders, and, together with Shinsei, they embarked upon their hopeless quest.
Fu Leng's forces continued to crush all opposition, but when they reached the gates of Otosan Uchi, they suddenly faltered. The Thunders had achieved their goal! The Shadowlands forces broke and fled back to their miserable home.
Of the Seven Thunders and Shinsei, only the Scorpion Thunder returned, near death, and bearing twelve Black Scrolls. "Guard these carefully," he said as he died, "for they were the defeat of Fu Leng."
Errors Edit
- There were ten Kami, but Ryoshun was forgotten from history for over a milennia. So his omission is understandable.
- The Unicorn Clan were initially named the Ki-Rin Clan.
- The Scorpion thunder was a female, Shosuro.
- Shinsei survived the defeat of Fu Leng.

How Do I Spike A Cake Without Alcohol,getting The Same Moist
Decorating By mariarosa Updated 6 Feb 2009 , 3:55pm by karateka
Maybe doesn't anything to do the moisture of the cake with the spike thing, but I always spike my cakes with rum ,brandy or whatever.since in the boilng process the alcohol is evaporated, I didn't have big concerns to use it in my family.But today I am going to make a cake for my friend's 5 years old daugther birthday party, and I wanted to spike the cake with the same moisture effect but without alcohol... Can somebody give some brilliant ideas, help me PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Thank you in advance,
I'd make a sugar syrup and flavor it with a clear extract, or just use it plain.
If you are making a dark cake, it won't hurt for the extract to be colored, either. Just don't use real vanilla on a white cake....it will show.

Most Helpful Guy
the ones I'm watching lately are
Who's the Boss it's a classic from the 80s and it's just good clean, funny humor for the most part.
Mad about you, it's another classic from I think the 90s or 80s about a married couple, like the kind of couple everyone want's to be like.
Psych, super funny show about a guy with crazy detective and problem solving ability's who pretends to be a psychic private detective he has his own little building for his PI stuff and he works as a PI for the police in his city, he has a black sidekick named Gus who's his best friend since birth. Though he never calls Gus by his actual name, instead calls him by 80 movie character names, singers and just goofy names in general and he loves making obscure 80s references. It's just a really funny show you can't help but love and laugh at the humor is clean and the whole family can watch it.
Firefly, another great TV series that was sadly canceled after one season -_- but it's about a group of smugglers that pulls jobs and commits crime, but they're good guys, kind of like anti hero's I guess since the government in the series is majorly corrupt and evil. But it's really good, it's got action, romance, it's funny and witty and stars Nathan Fillion
and finally Castle, again staring Nathan Fillion were he plays a rich and successful crime author who writes private detective crime novels. He's funny, witty, a bit immature but serious when he needs to be and he helps solves crimes with the New York Police by using his skills as a crime author and his tries within New York to solve crimes as a consultant with the police, his partner is a attractive lady detective, it's a great show, especially if your a writer like me ^^00|00|0

Just finished Pretty Little Liars. I love that.
Again finished last night How To Get Away With Murder.
Tried Stranger Things and not sure. trying Scream and that's like a more extreme PLL... I liked PLL because it was full of drama with a hint of mystery, it wasn't scary. Scream had made me uncomfortable a couple of times.
Looking for something similar to PLL and HTGAWM but not doing well :/
Blackadder IV is good but probably not for you. Likewise Bluestone 42 is amazing but probably not for you.00|00|0

Protectionism, agricultural prices and relative factor incomes: Sweden's wage-rental ratio, 1877-1926
Trends in wage-rental ratios have figured prominently in the recent literature on factor price convergence and globalisation in the late nineteenth century. In that literature Sweden has been described as a free trade country whose wage-rental ratio exhibited a distinguished upward trend before World War I. This article presents a new series of land prices which indicates an increase in land rentals and an evolution of the wage-rental ratio more in line with other European protectionist countries. We explore the determinants of the Swedish wage-rental ratio and assess the relative importance of protectionism and the change in the product mix from arable to animal products in Swedish agriculture.

There were still a lot of bugs in it but the one thing that really caught my attention is that it is based on Firefox 2 now. After doing a little research I realized that they did this a few months back but I must have never realized it.
Some of the things it does make it pretty obvious that it is running Firefox 2 such as the feed preview, but it is also missing some things that are vital in my opinion. One of those things that apparently didn't work was the inline spell check. I use that all of the time now and it would be tough to switch to any browser that doesn't have it. There was a lot of other things that they still needed to be worked on but I didn't play with the trunk build for too long.
I am just glad to see that they are planning to use Firefox 2 as a backbone to their browser. It has a lot of nice features and merging it with Flock will help draw some of the Firefox users over to their side. Hopefully they get some of the kinks worked out soon because Flock+Firefox 2 will be pretty amazing.
