SEC487: Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) Gathering and Analysis
Mon, August 12 - Sat, August 17, 2019
This course sets up the student with a whole range of OSINT tools that are essential for many investigation!
Everyday there is something new that surprises me. An amazing course with practical tools and skills.
Immeasurable amounts of personal and potentially incriminating data are currently stored in the websites, apps, and social media platforms that people access and update daily via their devices. Those data can become evidence for citizens, governments, and businesses to use in solving real financial, employment, and criminal issues with the help of a professional information gatherer.
Many people think using their favorite Internet search engine is sufficient to find the data they need and do not realize that most of the Internet is not indexed by search engines. SEC487 teaches students legitimate and effective ways to find, gather, and analyze this data from the Internet. You'll learn about reliable places to harvest data using manual and automated methods and tools. Once you have the information, we'll show you how to ensure that it is sound, how to analyze what you've gathered, and how to make it is useful to your investigations.
This is an entry-level, introduction to open-source intelligence (OSINT) course and, as such, will move quickly through many areas of the field. You will learn current, real-world skills, techniques, and tools that law enforcement, private investigators, cyber attackers, and defenders use to scour the massive amount of information across the Internet, analyze the results, and pivot on interesting pieces of data to find other areas for investigation. Our goal is to provide the OSINT knowledge base for students to be successful in their fields whether they are cyber defenders, threat intelligence analysts, private investigators, insurance claims investigators, intelligence analysts, law enforcement personnel, or just someone curious about OSINT.
Throughout the course week, students will participate in numerous hands-on labs using the tools and techniques that are the basis for gathering free data from the Internet. More than 20 labs in this course use the live Internet and dark web to help students gain real-world confidence. You'll leave the course knowing not just how to use search features on a website, but all of the scenario-based requirements and OSINT techniques needed to gather truly important OSINT data.
SEC487 students will receive licensing information in the SANS portal account that is linked to their registration. Please ensure that you can access the SANS portal account that is linked to your registration at the start of your course.
If you are registering another individual on behalf of your organization, you must register that individual using the email address that is linked to his or her SANS portal account. That will ensure that the individual can receive licensing information in his or her SANS portal account in order to be prepared with the proper equipment to complete the course (SEC487).
Course Syllabus
SEC487.1: Foundations of OSINT
Michael Murr
Mon Aug 12th, 2019
We begin with the basics and answer the questions "what is OSINT" and "how do people use it." This first day is about level-setting and ensuring that all students understand the background behind what we do in the OSINT field. We also establish the foundation for the rest of the week by learning how to document findings and set up an OSINT platform, and we discuss effective research habits for OSINT analysts. This day is a key component for the success of an OSINT analyst because without these concepts and processes in place, researchers can get themselves into serious trouble during assessments by inadvertently alerting their targets or improperly collecting data, making them less useful when delivered to the customer.
During the first half of the day we work through the pieces of the OSINT cycle to understand what our process might look like. Then we move into how law-abiding people use OSINT to get the data they need, be it parents trying to figure out if the person they want to hire as a child care worker is trustworthy, a person "googling" someone they are going out with on a date, businesses looking for information about a rival company, or law enforcement using social media and OSINT to capture criminals. We then move into how criminals use OSINT to target victims and conduct other attacks against people and their electronic data. We finish the morning with a review of documentation tools for creating MindMaps, compiling notes, creating timelines, and analyzing relationships within data.
The day continues by jumping into understanding threat profiles so that we can protect ourselves and infiltrate the places we need to gather the data our customers want. Recognizing that some students will be creating their own OSINT collection platforms, we move into what that may look like, covering topics such as the platform, operating system, networks, tools, and plugins. At the end of the day, students learn about the use of sock puppet (false accounts) and set up their own account for the labs in the course.

SEC487.2: Gathering, Searching, and Analyzing OSINT
Michael Murr
Tue Aug 13th, 2019
OSINT data collection begins on day two after we get a glimpse of some of the fallacies that could influence our conclusions and recommendations. From this point in the class forward, we examine distinct categories of data and think about what it could mean for our investigations. Retrieving data from the Internet could mean using a web browser to view a page or, as we learn in this section, using command line tools, scripts, and helper applications.
Our focus for day 2 begins with creating an OSINT assessment process and examining several OSINT frameworks that will help us while conducting our assessments. We then move to harvesting data from and about websites. Analyzing data such as SSL/TLS certificates and Google analytics IDs can be important to our assessments. Shifting from systems to people, we examine different methods for finding and validating basic data about people such as home addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses. These pieces of data become "pivot points" for our investigations, as we can often perform additional searches using these key data points to discover additional data that may be useful in our work. Students learn how to harvest user names and avatars and how they tie a single user to multiple user profiles across sites.
With user avatar images fresh in our minds, we pivot and consider how to perform reverse image searches. Day two concludes with a deep look at how we can execute advanced search engine queries to increase our chances of getting meaningful results.

SEC487.3: Social Media and Geolocation
Michael Murr
Wed Aug 14th, 2019
Finding data on people, especially basic content such as email addresses, home addresses, and phone numbers, can be made easier using online people search engines. This is how day three kicks off, examining free and paid choices in this data aggregator area and understanding how to use the data we receive from them. Some of these engines provide social media content in their results. This makes a terrific transition for us to move into social media data.
The first social media site we look at from an OSINT perspective is Facebook, with its worldwide reach. Students explore Facebook profiles, groups, events, and other Facebook objects using graph searches and Facebook query techniques. We then move to detailed examinations of LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram, and what OSINT data can be found in each of them.
An increasing number of social media sites allow users to geolocate themselves. The afternoon of day 3 starts with an examination of how to harvest and use this content for OSINT. Then, focusing on the "social" aspect of social media, we dive into the content on dating and adult websites. A natural progression from dating is sometimes a wedding, so we inspect wedding websites and registries for OSINT data. Next, we see how we can use web and traffic cameras for remote reconnaissance. We finish the day by examining document and image metadata to glean interesting data points from different document types.

SEC487.4: Imagery, Networks, Government, and Business
Michael Murr
Thu Aug 15th, 2019
Day four focuses on many different but related OSINT issues. We begin by looking at how various mapping sites can assist our assessments with aerial data, distance-measuring, and "street view" imagery. Moving beyond using just one vendor's mapping system, students will work with a variety of free, online mapping resources.
We then shift from OSINT about people and locations to OSINT about networks and computers, as researching IP addresses, domain names, and related content can be important aspects of our investigations. Starting with the basics, we get comfortable retrieving information about IP addresses, network blocks, and using the whois protocol. Students then move to making advanced queries to the domain name system (DNS) to grab subdomains and other domain data. To complete our work looking at computers, we examine how we use wireless network data in our work.
The second portion of the day has three modules. The first covers OSINT framework tool suites. These tools can accelerate our OSINT research by very rapidly acquiring data about people, networks, hosts, and more. We examine three frameworks in-depth during class. The next module covers harvesting information from federal, state, and local government web pages within the United States. The public data on these sites can help us research people and businesses. Completing the day, we look at the methods that can be used to gather data about businesses.

SEC487.5: The Dark Web and International Issues
Michael Murr
Fri Aug 16th, 2019
The entire morning of day five focuses on understanding and using three of the most popular dark web networks for OSINT purposes. Students will learn why people use Freenet, I2P, and Tor. Each network is discussed at length so that students don't just know how and why to use it, but also gain an understanding of how those networks work. With the Tor network being such a big player in the dark web, the course spends extra time diving into its resources.
The first module in the afternoon examines how blue teamers (cyber defenders) can use monitoring to receive alerts when data of interest appears on the Internet. We then shift our focus to data found on "paste" sites. These websites sometimes contain content such as user names and passwords of compromised user accounts, detailed network information about our target's systems, or just data that our customers need to know.
Considering that a big barrier to using non-English websites can be the language, students learn how to use techniques to translate content and search locally for relevant information in our international OSINT section. We also examine how to discover popular websites and applications used in foreign countries. Since we talk about international data and traveling around the world, our courseware finishes up with an examination of how we track transportation (planes, boats, cars, etc.).
We leave some time at the end of the day for a massive lab, the "Solo CTF," which helps students put together all that they have learned in a semi-guided walk-through that touches on many of the concepts taught throughout the week. Setting aside time to work through our OSINT process in an organized manner reinforces key concepts and allows students to practice executing OSINT process, procedures, and techniques.

SEC487.6: Capstone: Capture (and Present) the Flag
Michael Murr
Sat Aug 17th, 2019
The capstone for the course is a group event that brings together everything that students learned throughout the week. This is not a "canned" Capture the Flag event where specific flags are planted and your team must find them. It is a competition where each team will collect specific OSINT data about a certain group of people. The output from this work will be turned in as a "deliverable" to the "client" (the instructor), and then the three teams with the most-complete work will present their research to the class for voting.
This multi-hour, hands-on event will reinforce what the students practiced in the Solo CTF the day before and add the complexity of performing OSINT assessments under pressure and in a group.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6

Author Statement
"I have always been intrigued by the types and amount of data that are available on the Internet. From researching the best restaurants in a foreign town to watching people via video cameras, it all fascinates me. As the Internet evolved, more high-quality, real-time resources became available and every day was like a holiday, with new and wondrous tools and sites coming online and freely accessible.
"At a certain point, I was no longer in awe of the great resources on the web and, instead, transitioned to being surprised that people would post images of themselves in illegal or compromising positions or that a user profile contained such explicit, detailed content. My wonder shifted to concern for these people. Didn't they know that their (profiles, images, videos, comments, etc.) were publicly accessible? Didn't they care about it? What I found was that, if you looked in the right places, you could find almost anything about a person, a network, or a company. Piecing together seemingly random pieces of data into meaningful stories became my passion and, ultimately, the reason for this course.
"I recognized that the barrier to performing excellent OSINT was not that there was no free data on the Internet. It was that there was too much data on the Internet. The challenge transitioned from 'how do I find something' to 'how do I find only what I need?' This course was born from this need to help others learn the tools and techniques to effectively gather and analyze OSINT data from the Internet."

Christian Louboutin Boots
After years developing his craft while working for Charles Jourdan, an apprenticeship with Roger Vivier, and freelancing for Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent and Vogue, Paris-born shoemaker Christian Louboutin established his eponymous label in 1992. His iconic shiny red lacquered sole, an idea born a year later when an assistant applying red nail polish inspired him, instantly became the label's signature. His coveted "Louboutins" have since become synonymous with commanding empowerment, solidifying his notoriety as one of today's leading luxury footwear designers. Following creative partnerships including a collaboration with David Lynch, a men's line was introduced in 2010, where the label's attention to detail and vision of glamour are translated through plush velvet loafers, formal brogues, and spiked leather sneakers.

NJ Water and Mold is a preferred service provider for many major insurance companies. If your loss is not covered by the insurance company for any reason we can still provide free estimates for flood damage service.
Basements are the lowest point in a home and tend to flood first during any kind of water damage emergency. Water intrusions can occur in basements from sources inside and outside the home. Excessive rain can over saturate the ground, resulting in hydrostatic pressure – which occurs when moisture outside of the basement or foundational wall exceeds the pressure inside. Water will naturally seek the lower pressure, resulting in leaks and even cracks. Hidden moisture can lead to mold and mildew that can invade and ruin your stored contents and valuables. We will detect the water in your basement quickly and handle the water removal completely. Do not wait to call if you have basement water damage or flood damage.
Winter can be the most devastating time of year for water damage. When temperatures drop well below freezing, pipes will often freeze and expand until they burst. Homes that are left empty with no regulating of heat or poorly insulated walls can be a common culprit of frozen water pipes and frozen water lines in the winter time. A broken pipe or pipe burst in your attic can cause gallons of water to come rushing down into your living rooms, bedrooms, kitchen, and bathrooms. A broken or frozen pipe burst in a basement can often go unnoticed. If you discover a pipe burst in your home, contact us right away and we will get your water damage repaired immediately.
If you have found yourself dealing with sewage damage, we also provide safe sewage cleanup and sewage removal to keep you and your loved ones safe. Our team of professionally certified experts have years of experience resolving various sewage cleanup and repair problems. Raw sewage is difficult to cleanup and can be extremely hazardous. Sewage can contain high amounts of harmful bacteria and there are serious health risks associated with it. It's critical that you do not try to clean up a mess from broken pipes that are connected to a sewage line. Coming in contact with raw sewage can cause disease, can destroy your valuables and cause severe damage to your property. Only trained professionals with the right equipment should handle sewage removal.
There are some simple steps to take in every situation to prevent water damage:
We are a Wyckoff Water Damage Company that provides services to residential and commercial water damage victims. If you are suffering from an emergency water damage incident, don't hesitate to call right away so we can start the water damage repairs as soon as possible.
The first recorded permanent settlers were John and William Van Voor Haze (Voorhees), who purchased 550 acres of land in the area in 1720. In 1940 the population was just under 4,000 consisting of roughly 100 families with 30% of the land devoted to farming.

Using color-coded flat mop heads is one of the most hygienic ways to clean floors as tasks can be organized by location, project or area. However, using color-coded pads usually means selecting different colored pads — which is costly and causes storage problems. Kaivac solves this problem with its all-new SmartFloor Pad system. Each pad comes with four colored strips — red, yellow, blue and green. This system saves money, reduces inventory and promotes hygienic cleaning.

Some places are a natural for flirting. If you happen to be in a social function, everyone is already mixing it also it isn't hard to find an opening to go to a man you could be interested in. On the other hand, you might have to be described as a extra creative in certain other places. For example, you happen to be with the market and searching at produce. A cute guy pulls his cart up near yours. You'd like to get acquainted with him, but it seems awkward. It doesn't need to be. Ask him if he knows what aisle the spices have been in. Keep the conversation going and enquire of him if he's ever tried brand X. You can be bolder and bump into his cart, but that will not necessarily help find a conversation. One of the best flirting methods for women is usually to try to be creative.
The third tip is to understand how to create great rapport. Building rapport prematurely is to produce friends. You will not cause them to become fall in love with you by telling them everything with regards to you. Do not take away the middle of attention. You want the two of you to offer equal value in the partnership. Don't carry on bragging and complaining and whining. Let the other person talk.
Online paid dating sites have become in popularity and so One Night Hook Up are the best way to meet other well suited local singles. Some with the very popular dating sites incorporate some very unique matchmaking tools that will aid find which you match. Typically, these sites let you join the website free after which give which you free trial period by it.
Never produce a rude comment or bring up a controversial subject when approaching a girl. Most females are out for the fun night around the town and don't need to mention their stance on taxes or abortion. In addition, stay clear of subjects including religion or politics. Instead, create a nice comment and it is possible to always find another thing to discuss. If all else Hook Me Up By fails, you can even produce a comment about the weather.
Russian women also expect their men to become intelligent. So you may win them over by talking on all topics whether or not it's the existing affairs or regarding the updates making the rounds the planet. You'd better mention something which interests her and will not increase the risk for conversation boring. It is often seen that men keep boasting about themselves and that helps it be boring for Russian women to hear.
Becoming vulnerable you are getting into a phase that will be scary to suit your 2 Hook Up needs. But its also to be able to become intimate in several ways which has a person. You will possess a deep trust of anybody which team you are becoming vulnerable as well. They will be able to see everything with regards to you and you might be going to hope that they'll still love you once you have shown them those deep elements of you.
Surfing the Internet I have seen a large number of paid dating sites Hook Up S flashing with bosomy beauties just as if from screensavers. My eyes got sick and tired with such fake profiles stating: "I am searching for my prince...", "I am searching for that special man that happen to be my heart and my soul", "I dream of happy future which has a lovely man". It became my obsession to serve them with a web site with real Russian brides. I discovered that very few internet dating sites, dating agencies I would give them a call, have genuine girls in their catalogues. In order not to sound proofless, I decided to produce my own, personal investigation. I referred to as office of a single of which agencies and asked the administrator if they might help me in my research. This agency's motto is "We are against Photoshop". There are 2 components that make your image at the photo: professional work from the photographer and also the inner attractiveness of a lady. If you have a glance at their photos - No Photoshop is applied there. Natural beauty may be the guarantee of success. When you arrived at meet any lady you will observe just the same girl in the meeting. Such real girls are interested in finding their soul mates indeed.
Basically in this article you'll discover the true secret to meeting Get The Hook Up and attracting women, whenever and wherever you would like.
3. Make her see YOU as irresistible. You can virtually bypass any obstacle that Hook Up Women you want if you can make a female have a look at you and also help you as being irresistible. How do you try this? Well, you must begin by making a strong and natural approach that is going to hook her right away and BUILD on that attraction little by little and then you can make her think about you being irresistible.
•A�A�A�A�A�A�A�A�A�A�A�A� Their profile pictures may look professional, almost "too good to be real." These pictures seem like they are taken by By Hook Me Up the professional photographer along with the person featured looks like a model.
This sounds really confusing to some guys in the beginning - how do trying to be interesting to a woman actually ruin my chances having a woman? There are two major causes behind this, the first is plenty of guys tend to talk a lot a little more about himself than he or she is paying attention to her which is a turnoff for anyone, whether he or she is a man or possibly a girl. We have a tendency to talk more about ourselves because we feel a necessity to become heard and acknowledged which is perfectly normal, but we need to try to keep it into an ordinary extent. The other reason will be guys usually use items that would impress guys to impress a female, including such things as his career, car and income. Hook Me Up The But women aren't really considering these things, what they are more thinking about are such things as relationships and connections!
While there's an increasing trend for couples to become unfaithful for their partners, it's not always true. And making false accusations Hook Up At Work of infidelity can cause irreparable damage to your marriage, the maximum amount of damage the truth is, as that a result of a genuine affair.
Track their Facebook activity for trends, when would they go surfing frequently? For the majority of people its 7.30pm through the night. With activity dipping on Tuesdays and Saturdays; however it effects everyone differently, track the game from the girl that suits you by investigating what times she wrote her previous statuses, or commented on friends pages, this is a good indicator of when she's online.
1. You want to set up a standard for which type of relationship that you would like to be before you go out and try to attract a lady.
For starters, if you've got pets, you won't need to concern yourself with leaving them in your house as you go out on to start a date. Hook Me Up Your cat can have is bedtime snacks and you'll let your puppy out when she needs to visit out. You don't have to rush via your date knowing you might have an animal which has a full bladder at home.
- Smoking and drinking are not liked by women therefore you must quit these habits if you possibly could. The least you can do is avoid smoking or drinking before going to fulfill her.
I understand it will not be uncomplicated to convince women to do this. However, I am positive about the fact this could be the only approach to make sure that communication is magnificent between both partners. Misunderstandings are the primary challenges for any long-term relationship.
Turn that frown the other way up. One of the effective tools in flirting is smiling. Nobody can resist an optimistic image. A reminder, in the Hook Them Up event you smile, smile with authenticity, because when you do it with sincerity, up your eyes smiles, too, also it can brighten anyone's mood at any time.
Before other things, you must first understand what fast flirting is. This sort of flirting basically includes meeting women and wanting to do your very best self to seduce them in the shortest period of time. It may sound shallow for some you, however, many people function not need the luxurious of taking things slow. The typical time limit clause on this kind of flirting is often ten to twelve hours. If you have gone nowhere by that time, then there exists just no reason in going further.
4. Yes, there are other real profiles on paid sites than free websites. The very nature of men and women putting their cash for the service will more inclined create more honest profiles. I did not say completely honest, but will be more honest. Free sites around the hand offer less incentive for individuals being completely honest unless they are seriously trying to find people to meet. Some people post fake profile on free services because it is free, heck, nothing to loose!
The most powerful feeling that any man will give a lady as well as the one that makes her have the most amount of attraction is usually to be able to make her feel as if you're the 'one.' Women dream of finding that guy that offers them that feeling and The Hook Up Com quite a few of times, no happen for the kids. When you approach a lady to make her think way, then getting a date is really a cinch. Most guys don't make a female feel that way though, they often make her feel a bit uncomfortable. What can YOU do so that you simply make a female feel like you might be the one she has been looking forward to?
However, if the man is faced with a cheerful, confident partner that Girls Hook Up is a pleasure to invest time with, he's unlikely to withdraw. In fact, he'll likely draw even closer because he enjoys being around that individual. Men in this situation will most likely end up doing what you can to be sure their date stays happy.
Maybe you might have already tried to meet someone special inside Jewish faith, perhaps at Temple, however with no luck thus far.

Clinical Trials
Multi-vitamins, HAART and HIV/AIDS in Uganda
Harvard School of Public Health
Makerere University
Infectious Disease Institute, Kampala, Uganda
Information provided by (Responsible Party)
Wafaie Fawzi, Harvard School of Public Health
First received: October 15, 2010
Last updated: May 20, 2014
Last Verified: May 2014
History of Changes
The investigators are conducting a double-blind, placebo controlled,randomized trial of
multivitamin supplements(containing B-vitamins, C, and E) to determine their efficacy in
slowing disease progression, indicated by increased CD4 count, weight gain, and improved
quality of life, and decreased morbidity, mortality, and drug-related adverse events (i.e.
peripheral neuropathy, anemia, and diarrhea).
The investigators hypothesize that daily multivitamin supplementation will: (1) improve immune reconstitution; (2) improve weight gain, and (3) improve quality of life.
Dietary Supplement : Multivitamin supplements B,C and E
Phase 3
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|Multi-vitamins, HAART and HIV/AIDS in Uganda
Further study details as provided by Wafaie Fawzi, Harvard School of Public Health:
Primary Outcome Measures
- Weight Gain [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
Immune Reconstitution
[ Time Frame: 18 months ]
Immune Reconstitution is measured by change in CD4 cell count
- Improved Quality of Life [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
- New or recurrent disease progression event [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
- Reduce the probability of changing drug therapy (indicated by switching from first- to second-line therapy) [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
- Reduce HAART-associated adverse events (indicated by incident peripheral neuropathy, severe anemia, or diarrhea). [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
|Study Start Date:
|April 2010
|Study Completion Date:
|November 2013
|Primary Completion Date:
|November 2013 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Multivitamins (B,C,E)
Dietary Supplement:
Multivitamin supplements B,C and E
One daily recommended dietary allowance of multivitamins B,C and E or placebo taken daily for 18 months
Placebo Comparator:
Dietary Supplement:
Multivitamin supplements B,C and E
One daily recommended dietary allowance of multivitamins B,C and E or placebo taken daily for 18 months
Detailed Description:
Antiretroviral therapy, gradually becoming the standard of care in developing countries,
confers enormous benefits and yet substantial morbidity remains in human immunodeficiency
virus (HIV) positive populations. Multivitamin supplements have immune-enhancing effects, and
supplements were found to improve immunologic status and reduce morbidity and mortality among
HIV-positive Tanzanian women in pre-highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) stages of
disease. These supplements are thought to be required to restore adequate nutrient levels in
the context of HIV infection.
This study will enroll 400 men and women in the Kampala district of Uganda, who are receiving or have recently initiated HAART. At baseline and monthly thereafter, research physicians and nurses at study clinics will assess each participant's clinical status and undertake study procedures. Each participant will be followed for 18 months, or until his/her death or loss to follow-up. Home visits will be conducted if participants miss their scheduled clinic appointments. We will perform nutritional assessments (anthropometry and dietary intake) at enrollment and several follow-up points, and laboratory measurements (CD4 cell counts and complete blood counts) every six months.
Importantly, all study participants will continue receiving the standard of care according to national guidelines for the entire study period. Multivitamins could be a low-cost, adjunct therapy for helping to alleviate disease burden and elevate quality of life in HIV-infected individuals on HAART. At the same time, their efficacy could help preserve limited drug regimens in developing settings by postponing the need for switches to second line regimens of HAART.
Our proposal represents a collaboration between the Harvard School of Public Health, Infectious Disease Institute and Makerere University School of Public Health in Kampala, Uganda.

Enormous thanks, guys. Your instruction is accessible and easy-to-digest without the unrealistic claims found elsewhere. I just broke 80 for the first... time ( 2 times this week!! ) due in no small part to you. enjoy your lessons and your course vlogs. keep it up.
Simo L. -
I joined meandmygolf just under a month ago, after I saw the free videos on YouTube. I liked the way Piers & Andy explained the concepts, and sign... ed up for the free 30-days. I've played one year previously (2008), before I went to university, and had to drop this expensive hobby. I started playing golf again this summer, and was playing somewhere around 95-110 shots. I wanted to get better fast, and started the Break100-plan to get under 100 constently. I went through the plan a bit quicker, 2 weeks of the plan in one week, and just after I finished the last week, I pulled an amazing score of 84!!! That is absolutely insane. Something just clicked. If you want to build your game back up, or just go back to the basics, don't skip the drills. They may sound tedious and lame, but they actually help. Stick with the plan, and I guarantee it will work! Can't wait for the Break90 plan! Awesome job Piers & Andy!
Kevin Daly -
Best $100 I've ever spent on golf. The guys continue to bring valuable advice and perspective on common swing faults through relatable drills and me... thods. Andy and Piers' use of social media make them accessible and ahead of their peers. I believe they are innovators in the future of digital golf instruction
Connor H. -
I learned to play golf at a very young age and at my best I was around a 12 handicap. After college I started to play golf more frequently again and w... as struggling the past two years to get under a 14 handicap. Thanks to Andy and Piers I am down to an 11in the past month and trending down. It had been years since I revisited the basics (i.e. chip vs. pitch, how one should address the ball, finishing your swing). It is because of this I have been able to shave strokes off my game. Whether you are a 24 or a 4 there is something Me and My Golf can teach you! I missed a 15 foot birdie the other day to break 80 for the first time ever! With their help, I hope to accomplish that goal before the snow sets in.
Paul Sy -
Huge Thank You to you guys! First time I've ever broken 90 (I' usually on the upper 90s, low 100s), and it's because of the awesome videos and t... ips - I just started this week and have been on the range practicing the drills. Then boom, the next time I played I broke 90. So Thanks again! :) More power to you guys!
Michael Burbano -
I feel bad for my golf instructor! After finding out about the guys at "me and my golf", i've learned more watching their videos than I ever could hav... e with an instructor. 30 minute sessions compared to constant videos at my leisure have given me more time to learn and practice my swings. You guys truly provide easy to understand lessons for golfers at any level. Thank you so much, you guys are a blessing for the golfing community!
Salvatore Cuccia -
These two are officially my favorite golfers in the world! Never before have I seen such detailed yet comprehensive instruction. I've taken lessons wi... th several local pros, but nothing they'd shown me compared to the knowledge and instruction I've been given by Piers and Andy. The information is given in an easily digestible and light hearted manner, making it very easy to retain and focus on. My brother makes fun of me for watching too many videos, but the change in my game has proven its value. A month of viewing and practice brought me from a 105-115 average to five rounds in a row averaging 95! This made me a true believer in their understanding of the game, so I recently committed to the official site. The site is so helpful and easy to navigate. The subdivided sections that focus on specific issues and the ability to create your own playlist make this site a useful tool for players of all skill levels. I continue to learn from these videos and am continuing to improve. Aiming for the 80s next season. Thank you so much, gentlemen. You've made such a difference in this golfer's game, so please keep it up!
Brett Mackin -
Can't recommend Andy and Piers highly enough. Was shooting around 100 at my local course.. Solely due to meandmygolf.com I have now shot as low as 80.... . Number 1 golfing instruction I have come across. Big thank you to you guys all the way from Sydney, Australia
Craig P. -
Hands down you both are providing the best techniques to master the mechanics of the golf swing. It feels Hogan, but modified for modern equipment due... to technology. Efficient, repeatable, powerful. It's just physics. Thanks for playing Taylormade!
Beau S. -
Some of the Best teachers, they keep it simple, helped my game. Shooting in mid 90's
Greg T. -
I love your site. Your instruction is just fantastic. The combination of video with explanation and correction drills is superb. I am a single digit h... andicapper who basically knows my swing and its faults. Your videos have really helped my ball striking and short game. You guys are such good teachers. You teach directly and plainly without all the nonsense, plus you both have beautiful swings which helps a visual learner like me to emulate. I am so glad that I joined. Your site is very well organized and easy to navigate. I love the fact that I can create my own categories and save videos to refer back to later. I am so glad that I found this. Thanks a bunch!
Chris K. -
These guys and their videos are awesome. Really helped me out of a funk and got me back on track!
Scott W. -
Start with the grip video, go to ball position, address your posture, get the timing down, and then watch your score go down. Just that easy! These gu... ys are great!
Thomas J. -
Thanks for giving me something to do and learn while deployed in the military. Can't wait to apply what I have learned to courses all around the world... .
GolfTeam Powell Kent, UK -
We at Team Powell have been watching the videos and instructions of these for guys for some while and can honestly say they are the best for no nonsen... se easy to understand golf instruction. There tips have helped us reduce our handicaps and we have now won 3 monthly medals in a row which is fantastic. There website is easy to use and packed with loads of stuff to help your game, so don't delay get signed up today and as the guys say "take charge of your game".
Neil C. -
As a high handicapper I often get confused by some of the more technical and not so relevant teaching out there, but not so with meandmygolf. Excellen... t practical tips delivered clearly and easy to understand. Already helped me to improve and certainly understand what I'm doing wrong.
Jack M. -
I have recently joined, but I have been watching the videos for a few months now and they really have made an impact on my game. The level of instruct... ion given in such short videos is the perfect combination. I have learned a lot from the website and videos and I do feel that I am taking charge of my game. Thanks for your videos and instruction.
Nuwan A. -
I have followed meandmygolf for some time. Andy and Piers have a great approach to the game. Their videos are simple to understand and well presented.... Their approach focuses on the whole game and having a tailored plan for each golfer makes so much sense. They always make an effort to reply to the many questions they get asked. Thanks so much. Keep up all your good work and look forward to seeing more great videos!
Roberto E. -
Meandmygolf.com is not only a complete book of concepts and drills properly organized and explained in a highly didactic way. It is also a demonstrati... on that golf knowledge can be spread in a friendly and funny manner. There is no doubt that watching the videos from Piers and Andy golfers of any level will shoot better scores very soon. I decreased my handicap from 11 to 7 in only 6 months!
Richard D. -
As with many instructional videos they can leave you puzzled and sometimes frustrated, but you guys at Meandmygolf are thourugh and your videos are br... illiantly illustrated, I know your drills and methods have helped my game in abundance looking forward to you and your team getting me to single figures this year.
Thomas M. -
Joined a few days ago, had watched many of your clip in past year, spot on, no blab, exact help in all areas, thank you two guys a lot. thomas
Tony A. -
I started to play golf more seriously over the last couple of years. I needed to look at my swing and how to be more consistent. I viewed a lot of on-... line coaching videos, but nothing seemed to connect with me until I came across "Meandmygolf". Both Piers and Andy seems to explain the fundamentals in a way I understand. All the help and practice has taken me from a 24 handicap to a 16, and I am looking to get down to single figures this year with the help of Meandmygolf #takecharge.
Atilio Josué -
Thanks to Me and My Golf.com I've been able to improve my long and short game. I've scouted over the internet, and haven´t found a better source of t... ips and drills. It's amazing the way Piers and Andy make it easy to understand, therefore, easy to apply. Thanks again guys for such amazing job and help, you give me everyday.
Sam H. -
Excellent, easy to follow advice that has helped all aspects of my golf game tremendously!
Bryan K. -
These guys are awesome, watched a driver tip video and shot 71 the next day after hitting almost every fairway! Thanks guys! #kbomb
Dean G. -
I was a bit skeptical about spending $10 or so a month on two blokes telling me how to swing a golf club on the net, how wrong was I. I just wanted to... say a massive thank you to you both, my game has improved so much in the 4 months that I've been a member and now all I want to do is play or hit balls at the range. Also, Andy did a little segment on chipping from the rough and coming down onto the ball.....well anyway I had a shot like that and I thought to myself what did the boys tell me to do. I was literally 5cm away from the water in sand with little back swing, so I've come down on to the ball and I got out (it didn't go far, but I got out) with out dropping a shot, so again thank you so so much for your great videos, loving every one of them. Cheers!
Ross Whitaker -
Excellent. Glued to it. Dropped three shots in 4 weeks due to previous videos, hopefully something similar will happen because of this website!
Stephen Ractliffe -
Progress! My handicap has come down from 11 (11.0) to 9 (9.2) in August 2017 across a run of three competition rounds out of four. Back in December 20... 16 I used the fault fixer to help improve ball-striking of my irons. MeAndMyGolf provided me with some videos to help with lag. And in August this started to feed through. MeAndMyGolf works for me better than one-on-one tuition with a teaching pro. I think this is because with the latter my swing is like a house of cards; all parts of the swing become up for grabs and I end up with no swing for at least a year. With MeAndMyGolf, I keep my swing private and only I know how to piece it all together; I can fix one thing at a time and integrate the change into my whole swing. So, on to the next fault to fix for 2018...
Robert H. -
I hadn't played golf in almost 20 years. But started playing again when my oldest daughter started playing on the high school golf team (she just lite... rally started playing golf in April of 2017 when she joined the team). So I was looking for help to get my game back in form, so I could practice with her. I watched a bunch of videos on youtube and even joined some sites, including this one. But Me and My Golf has been the easiest for me to follow, with simple to duplicate drills, and no super long winded mumbo jumbo in between. Plus, they show they like to have a little fun and that's what golf should be about. It has really helped me with my game and I keep improving. Thanks Andy and Piers!
Gabriel A. -
I am still recently new to golf (8-21-2017) is only my 3rd year of golfing more than 3 times a year. I have been following Me and my golf first on you... tube, then for the last year as a member. Knowing my swing faults, and being able to have them, through their videos, show me drills to fix them has helped me improve my game and enjoyment level of golf even more. I highly recommend this site to anyone, whether beginner or not if you want to improve you golf game.
Britten Goldhardt -
Love your stuff guys. I've learned more this summer with your videos than the last 3 years with my old swing coach. Biggest telling point, dropped a... lmost 5 strokes off my score. Huge! Thanks!!!
Jeff Wilson -
Love this website! I have only been golfing for a few months and I have looked at several other websites and programs before this one, and meandmygolf... was easily the most comprehensive and helpful resource I have found. I went from barely getting the ball in the air to quickly hitting quality golf shots fairly consistently. Thanks to your website, I already feel like a pretty educated golfer. Can't wait to watch more and continue to improve. Thanks guys!
Joe C. -
Awesome. These guys have been YouTube/Instagram favorites for some time, so expanding my access to their knowledge was a easy call. Their knowledge of... golf is simply brilliant, and their personalities are great learning platforms. Wether you're also working with an in-person pro, someone balling on a budget (it's a great value), or even the 8 handicap looking to get scratch, it's with it!
Stephen T. -
Top content really helped me with my game!
Simon R. -
Really good website with a lot of variety of videos and texts. Today I trained with my chipping using your website and I saw difference when I went ou... t playing the course. Hope I can get an even better handicap with you guys currently at 9 :)
Carlo Chidrome -
Great prizes to motivate on improving to lower your score!! Plus the videos are high quality. You can tell it took a lot of work and effort making eac... h videos. Amazing job team.

I've been playing golf my whole life. I've always hit a high, short, slice. I also typically hit everything fat. I joined Me and My Golf several month... s ago and began watching the videos on striking the ball pure. It was a light bulb moment for me. The golf swing finally made sense. After working through the drills, my game has totally changed. I'm hitting a draw. I'm making solid contact, and I've added about 45 yards to my five iron. I can't say thank you enough.

Hey guys, Love your videos and tips. Only started playing golf 2 weeks ago and I've never had any lessons as such. Love how detailed you guys get in ... your analysis from a technical point of view. I've basically learnt how to hit irons, and fixed a right-to-left slice in my drive (left hander) in the matter of 10 minutes from watching your videos. Give up the great work and hopefully i can become a complete player like you guys. Cheers PJ

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Portland State University is pleased to announce that Judy Bluehorse Skelton, a Senior Instructor in the Indigenous Nations Studies Program and alumna of PSU, was named the 2014 recipient of the Outstanding Teacher of the Year Award by the Oregon Indian Education Association at their annual conference in Warm Springs, OR on April 11, 2014. Bluehorse Skelton is Nez Perce and Cherokee.
Bluehorse Skelton joined the Indigenous Nations Studies Program in 2013, and from 2010–2013 she taught capstone courses in University Studies at PSU. Bluehorse Skelton has created innovative courses that demonstrate the cultural relevance of indigenous ways of knowing to a broad audience, including undergraduates, high school teachers and post-bachelor scholars. She developed a variety of memorable demonstrations, stories and songs to help students understand and remember the concepts and ideas she teaches.
In addition to her award-winning role as an outstanding teacher, Bluehorse Skelton spends much of her time in the local community. She has a strong interest in university-community research linkages, service learning, and boundary organizations between the university and tribal communities and sovereign governments. She is also a member of the Community Engagement Committee for the School of Gender, Race and Nations.
Judy Bluehorse Skelton earned her B.A. and M.A. from Portland State University.
The mission of the Oregon Indian Education Association is to promote quality educational services for Indian people in the state of Oregon. The OIEA Outstanding Teacher of the Year is selected after a voting process at the annual statewide conference. Nominees from schools throughout Oregon submitted packets of information that included testimonials and letters of support from their students and colleagues. From the written material, nomination applicants were judged by their contribution to American Indian education in Oregon. As part of her recognition, Bluehorse Skelton will receive an inscription plaque award sponsored by the OIEA.

Many of us may question purchasing seafood after the recent news that 84 percent of fish worldwide is too high in mercury. We know that certain seafood items can be an important food source of omega 3 fatty acids, but we certainly don't want too much mercury in our systems.
Thankfully, there are seafood choices that aren't high in mercury (and other toxins), but are high in nutrients.
The American Pregnancy Association gives good guidelines for eating seafood low in mercury. When pregnant, breastfeeding, or feeding children, it is especially important that you don't eat too much mercury as it can effect the brain and nerve development of children. Go to the website to see the whole list, but I've also listed the best choices for low-mercury seafood options below.
According to the group, the safest seafood (of which you can consume two 6-ounces servings per week) include: anchovies, butterfish, catfish, clam, crab (domestic), crawfish/crayfish, croaker, flounder, haddock, hake, herring, mackerel (North Atlantic, Chub), mullet, oysters, perch, plaice, salmon (canned, fresh), sardines, scallops, shad (American), shrimp, sole, squid, tilapia, trout (freshwater), whitefish, whiting.
This list is a helpful start. But it doesn't give the whole story. I also want to know how sustainable my seafood choices are, and how high in nutrients they are — especially the important omega 3 fatty-acids. For that I look to the "The Super Green list" seafood list put out by MontereyBayAquarium.org. The group hasn't updated the list for the last two years, but you can use the website to look up individual fish to make sure that the status hasn't changed in the last two years. The seafood on this list has to fit the following criteria:
- Low levels of contaminants (below 216 parts per billion [ppb] mercury and 11 ppb PCBs)
- The daily minimum of omega-3s (at least 250 milligrams per day [mg/d])
- Classified as a Seafood Watch "Best Choice" (green) — this indicates that this seafood choice is sustainable.
Their "best of the best" list includes:
- Albacore tuna (troll- or pole-caught, from the U.S. or British Columbia
- Freshwater Coho salmon (farmed in tank systems, from the U.S.)
- Oysters (farmed)
- Pacific sardines (wild-caught)
- Rainbow trout (farmed)
- Salmon (wild-caught, from Alaska)
Other healthy choices:
- Arctic char (farmed)
- Barramundi (farmed, from the U.S.)
- Dungeness crab (wild-caught, from California, Oregon or Washington)
- Longfin squid (wild-caught, from the U.S. Atlantic)
- Mussels (farmed)
Fish, Mercury and Nutrition: The Net Effects has a lot of information, including how the high selenium content of seafood can help the body safely process mercury, and how important nutrient-rich seafood is to our diets.
And, finally, I think it's important to follow local guidelines and the most updated data possible. Mercury levels, the sustainability of certain seafood, and other factors may change with time.

8 Tricks Found -- Page 1
|The magician unfolds and then shows empty a heavy kraft paper type lunch bag, a big similar to a gift bag. He reaches inside the bag and pulls out a box of flowers! The bag is shown empty again, and then again the magician reaches inside the bag and pull out another box of flowers! This is repeated a third time. This is a beautiful production item that is very easy to do, even surrounded, and is well made. This is simple, direct, and very good magic. This is the large stage size version of the effect. 009FOLlf-0631
|You reach up to the flower lapel on your jacket or costume and pull the flower away. As it is pulled away it transforms into a silk handkerchief that can be used for your next effect! Will take either 12 inch or 18 inch silk hanks. Spider wire gimmick only, use your own hanks.
|The magician displays an octagon-shaped tray. He ignites a piece of paper (flashpaper) on the tray, there is a flash and on the tray is now a bouquet of flowers. The magician can repeat the trick, but this time there is a huge bouquet of flowers, or anything else that will fit the load chambers! Use this tray to produce silk hanks, sponge balls, sponge eggs, etc, up to FOUR TIMES! The beautiful wooden tray is finely crafted.
|The magician shows a stalk with six flowers. The top three flowers are yellow and the bottom three flowers are red. The magician moves his hand up the stalk and the flower order magically changes until finally he is left with alternating flowers; red, yellow, red, yellow, red, yellow. The magician has complete control to develop an entire routine over each flower's mysterious transformation. For an alternate handling, the magician can use red and yellow handkerchiefs to rub the flowers. He takes a red hank and rubs one of the yellow flowers and the yellow flower turns red! The stalk screws together in the middle for performance, and can unscrew of course for packing if needed. Yep, it's made in India and Future Fungus may be a very strange name for a flower effect, but the effect itself is really quite pretty and amazing.
|The removes a match from a large matchbox. He strikes the match lit. When he blows the match out, the match suddenly turns into a flower! This is a very old, simply, and very effective magic trick that is often overlooked. It is instantaneous, surprising, and fun to perform. This is a great way to light a Fantasio Vanishing Candle. Comes complete with instructions. 004nuffi00960
|These paper spring flowers provide a beautiful production. Each flower has a string attached to it's "stem." With the strings tied together, a beautiful bouquet as per the picture can be instantly produced. Or without tying the strings together, produce the flowers one at a time. Each flower folds flat. When stacked together they make a packet a little less than an inch thick. The flowers are easy to conceal and yet expand instantly when released. Comes as a package of 25 individual flowers. Use a Devil's Handkerchief (see Silk Hanks) and place a couple of bouquets in the secret compartments. The magician can then show a handkerchief on both sides, fold it up into quarters, reach inside and produce the bouquets of flowers!
|The magician holds in his hand a torch that blazes with fire. He runs his hand up the shank of the torch to the fire and instantly the fire is transformed into a red rose! Easy to do magic, but be careful. Remember that it is real fire! 005nufmc00020
|A single stem flower is displayed. When the spectator throws a kiss toward the flower, it wilts away! Sprinkle woofle dust on the flower and it restores! Can be used in a variety of ways. Inexpensive "silk flower" variety. 052nufud00220

Story highlights
- "We are terribly saddened by the incident," the store's operating company said Friday
- The shooting occurred in Old Bridge, in central New Jersey, about 30 miles south of Newark
- "I believe everyone in the store was a target," said official, who said gunman fired 16 rounds
- N.J. transit agency says some bus parking lots remain closed because of police activity
A 23-year-old gunman killed two co-workers early Friday at a Pathmark supermarket in Old Bridge, New Jersey, and then shot himself to death, Middlesex County Prosecutor Bruce J. Kaplan said.
The shooter wielded an AK-47 assault rifle and a handgun, and was carrying multiple ammunition magazines, he added.
"I believe everyone in the store was a target," said Kaplan, who noted that the gunman fired 16 rounds during his attack.
The gunman killed an 18-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man, and may have opened fire just before he walked into the store, he said, citing broken glass in front.
There were between 12 and 14 night shift workers in the store, Kaplan said. The man opened fire around 4 a.m.
CNN affiliate WABC broadcast aerial footage of at least three police cruisers in front of the supermarket, while several people gathered outside an adjacent restaurant.
"We are terribly saddened by the incident at our Old Bridge Pathmark store this morning," The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. said in a statement. "We express our deepest sympathies to the families of the victims and our appreciation to local law enforcement."
NJ Transit reported that parking lots for its buses remain closed on the northbound side of route 9 in Old Bridge because of police activity.
Old Bridge is in central New Jersey, roughly 30 miles south of Newark.
