Magazine article Oceanus
Workers Reveal Historical Formulas Sealed Behind a Wall
Article excerpt
Twenty-two years ago, workers renovating a WHOI conference room decided that two chalkboards covered in mathematical formulas looked too interesting to throw away. In a corner of one board, they added a few notes, then sealed the boards behind a new wall.
The formulas provide the theoretical underpinnings of a significant advance in the performance of a type of sonar that has become a staple of oceanographic research: the broadband acoustic Doppler current profiler, or ADCR The instrument, which measures water velocity and direction over a range of depths, is widely used by scientists worldwide to measure currents and surface waves and is routinely deployed on ships, moorings, and seafloor installations.
On May 6--exactly 22 years to the day after they were covered up--the long-forgotten boards were found by construction workers renovating the same conference room. The ADCP's success made the rediscovery of the long-hidden formulas akin to finding an original recipe or music recording. They propped the chalkboards in the lobby of the Smith Building, where they caught Gene Terray's attention.
"I took a look and said, 'Gee, that looks familiar,' " said Terray, a researcher in the Department of Applied Ocean Physics and Engineering. …

|Mark 9:47-48 English Standard Version (ESV)
47 And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell, 48 'where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.'
|Mark 9:47-48 Good News Translation (GNT)
47 And if your eye makes you lose your faith, take it out! It is better for you to enter the Kingdom of God with only one eye than to keep both eyes and be thrown into hell.48 There 'the worms that eat them never die, and the fire that burns them is never put out.'
|Mark 9:47-48 Updated American Standard Version (UASV)
47 And if your eye makes you stumble, throw it out, it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, than, having two eyes, to be cast into Gehenna,[1] 48 where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.
About one year later, Nisan 11th 33 C.E. on the Mount of Olives, Jesus spoke prophetically of a future time when he would say to the wicked,
|Matthew 25:41, 46 English Standard Version (ESV)
41 "Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
|Matthew 25:41, 46 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
41 "Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; 46 These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
If we were to take Jesus' words in the above in isolation without looking at the Bible backgrounds or any of the original language words, it might seem like Jesus was teaching a hellfire doctrine of eternal torment. However, this would contradict other parts of Scripture that clearly teaches the punishment of eternal destruction." – 2 Thessalonians 1:9, ESV.
What did Jesus mean in the above text when he said people would be 'thrown into hell?' How are we to understand "the eternal fire" that Jesus warned us about, is it literal or symbolic? The original Greek word translated "hell" at Mark 9:47 is Geenna.
Gehenna Hebrew Ge' Hinnom, literally, valley of Hinnom appears 12 times in the Greek New Testament books, and many translators render it by the word "hell." Most translations have chosen poorly not to use a transliteration, Gehenna or Geenna, as opposed to the English hell, ASV, AT, RSV, ESV, LEB, HCSB, and NASB. There is little doubt that the New Testament writers and Jesus used "Gehenna" to speak of the place of final punishment. What was Gehenna?
According to the Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary (p. 632), Gehenna or the Valley of Hinnom was "the valley south of Jerusalem now called the Wadi er-Rababi (Josh. 15:8; 18:16; 2 Chron. 33:6; Jer. 32:35) became the place of child sacrifice to foreign gods. The Jews later used the valley for the dumping of refuse, the dead bodies of animals, and executed criminals."[2] We would disagree with the other comments by the Holman Illustrated Dictionary, "The continuing fires in the valley (to consume the refuse and dead bodies) apparently led the people to transfer the name to the place where the wicked dead suffer." This just is not the case.
In the Old Testament, the Israelites did burn sons in the fires as part of a sacrifice to false gods, but not for the purpose of punishment or torture. By the time of the New Testament period, hundreds of years later, the only thing thrown in Gehenna was trash and the dead bodies of executed criminals. For what purpose were these thrown into Gehenna? It was used as an incinerator, a furnace for destroying things by burning them. Notice that any bodies thrown in Gehenna during the New Testament period were already dead. Thus, if anything, these people saw Gehenna as a place where they destroyed their trash and the bodies of dead criminals. Thus, if Jesus used this to illustrate as the place of the wicked, it would have represented destruction as the punishment.
The Valley of Slaughter
Jeremiah 7:30-34 English Standard Version (ESV)
30 "For the sons of Judah have done evil in my sight, declares the Lord. They have set their detestable things in the house that is called by my name, to defile it.31 And they have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I did not command, nor did it come into my mind. 32 Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when it will no more be called Topheth, or the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter; for they will bury in Topheth, because there is no room elsewhere. 33 And the dead bodies of this people will be food for the birds of the air, and for the beasts of the earth, and none will frighten them away. 34 And I will silence in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, for the land shall become a waste.
This valley of Hinnom was on the outskirts of ancient Jerusalem. As we can see from the above text in Jeremiah, it was used for the practice of child sacrifice, a sickening and abhorrent practice that God condemned. God had said the idea of burning someone alive, 'did even come into his mind,' and he would execute such ones, not even torture these wicked ones. Therefore, God foretold that the Valley of Hinnom would become a place for the destruction of dead bodies, not to torture live victims.
Jesus reference to 'the worms that eat them never die, and the fire that burns them is never put out,' he was alluding to Isaiah 66:24. (See cross-reference NASB) Regarding "the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against [God]," Isaiah says that "their worm will not die And their fire will not be quenched." (NASB) Those listening to Jesus would have been very familiar with the book of Isaiah, knowing his reference was to the treatment of "the corpses of the men," who did not deserve to be buried.
Thus, it is all too clear that Jesus was using the Valley of Hinnom, or Gehenna, as a symbol of eternal destruction for those who would never receive a resurrection. He made this, even more, clear when he said, "fear [God] who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell [Gr Gehenna]." (Matt. 10:28, NASB) Therefore, Gehenna is a symbol of eternal death, not eternal torment in some eternal hellfire.
What about Jesus mention of "the eternal fire," is it literal or symbolic? (Matt 25:41) If we look at the whole verse, we can see that this eternal fire is "prepared for the devil and his angels." Is it possible for literal fire to burn spirit persons? Clearly, Jesus was using symbolism here, as we also consider the fact that the mention of "the sheep" and "the goats" mentioned in the same section of verses are not literal. The sheep and the goats are word pictures used to symbolize two groups of peoples. (Matt. 25:32-33) The "eternal fire" that Jesus spoke of is used as a symbol for the burning up of the wicked in a figurative sense.
Well, some might ask, what about the wicked, who "will go away into eternal punishment"? First, eternal punishment does not automatically equate into eternal torment by eternal fire.
The basic meaning of the Greek word kolasin "akin to kolazoo,"[3] "means 'to cut short,' 'to lop,' 'to trim,' and figuratively a. 'to impede,' 'restrain,' and b. 'to punish,' and in the passive 'to suffer loss.'[4] The first part of the sentence is only in harmony with the second part of the sentence, if the eternal punishment is eternal death. The wicked receive eternal death and the righteous eternal life. We might at that Matthews Gospel was primarily for the Jewish Christians, and under the Mosaic Law, God would punish those who violated the law, saying they "shall be cut off [penalty of death] from Israel." (Ex 12:15; Lev 20:2-3) We need further to consider,
2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 English Standard Version (ESV)
8 in flaming fire, inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might
Notice that Paul says too that the punishment for the wicked is "eternal destruction." Many times in talking with those that support the position of eternal torment in some hellfire, they will add a word to Matthew 25:46 in their paraphrase of the verse, 'conscious eternal punishment.' However, Jesus does not tell us what the eternal punishment is, just that it is a punishment and it is eternal. Therefore, those who support eternal conscious fiery torment will read the verse to mean just that, while those, who hold the position of eternal destruction, will take Matthew 25:46 to mean that. Considering that Jesus does not define what the eternal punishment is, this verse is not a proof text for either side of the argument.
Therefore, Jesus did not teach that God was going to torture the wicked in some eternal hellfire forever. Rather, Jesus said, "God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life." (John 3:16, NASB) Implied in this verse is if we think we will receive eternal life, if we do not, we will not, which means we will die. If Jesus meant that, the wicked received eternal life of another kind, suffering torment in a fiery hell, why not state so here. Rather, he says, if 'we do not believe, we will perish.' Let us look at verse 36, which informs us what the believer and the unbeliever will receive, "He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." If we refuse to accept Jesus, then we will not receive life. One has to be alive to receive eternal torment in some hellfire.
Short History of Hell as Eternal Torment
Greek Mythology (900 – 500 B.C.E.)
The Encarta Encyclopedia says, "Hades, in Greek mythology, god of the dead. He was the son of the Titans Cronus and Rhea and the brother of Zeus and Poseidon. When the three brothers divided up the universe after they had deposed their father, Cronus, Hades was awarded the underworld. There, with his queen, Persephone, whom he had abducted from the world above, he ruled the kingdom of the dead. Although he was a grim and pitiless god, unappeased by either prayer or sacrifice, he was not evil. In fact, he was known also as Pluto, lord of riches, because both crops and precious metals were believed to come from his kingdom below ground."
"The underworld itself was often called Hades. It was divided into two regions: Erebus, where the dead pass as soon as they die, and Tartarus, the deeper region, where the Titans had been imprisoned. It was a dim and unhappy place, inhabited by vague forms and shadows and guarded by Cerberus, the three-headed, dragon-tailed dog. Sinister rivers separated the underworld from the world above, and the aged boatman Charon ferried the souls of the dead across these waters. Somewhere in the darkness of the underworld Hades' palace was located. It was represented as a many-gated, dark and gloomy place, thronged with guests, and set in the midst of shadowy fields and an apparition-haunted landscape. In later legends the underworld is described as the place where the good are rewarded and the wicked punished."
"Eurydice, in Greek mythology, a beautiful nymph, and wife of Orpheus, the master musician. Shortly after their marriage Eurydice was bitten in the foot by a snake and died. Grief-stricken, Orpheus descended into the underworld to seek his wife. Accompanying his song with the strains of his lyre, he begged Hades, god of the dead, to relinquish Eurydice. His music so touched Hades that Orpheus was permitted to take his wife back with him on the condition that he would not turn around to look at her until they had reached the upper air. They had almost completed their ascent when Orpheus, overwhelmed by love and anxiety, looked back to see if Eurydice was following him. The promise broken, Eurydice vanished forever to the regions of the dead."
"Tartarus, in Greek mythology, the lowest region of the underworld. According to Hesiod and Virgil, Tartarus is as far below Hades as the earth is below the heavens and is closed in by iron gates. In some accounts Zeus, the father of the gods, after leading the gods to victory over the Titans, banished his father, Cronus, and the other Titans to Tartarus. The name Tartarus was later employed sometimes as a synonym for Hades, or the underworld in general, but more frequently for the place of damnation where the wicked were punished after death. Such legendary sinners as Ixion, king of the Lapiths, Sisyphus, king of Corinth, and Tantalus, a mortal son of Zeus, were placed in Tartarus."
Scandinavian Mythology (450 B.C.E. – 100 C.E.
The Encarta Encyclopedia says, "Many ancient mythological heroes, some of whom may have been derived from real persons, were believed to be descendants of the gods; among them were Sigurd the Dragon-slayer; Helgi Thrice-Born, Harald Wartooth, Hadding, Starkad, and the Valkyries. The Valkyries, a band of warrior-maidens that included Svava and Brunhild, served Odin as choosers of slain warriors, who were taken to reside in Valhalla. There the warriors would spend their days fighting and nights feasting until Ragnarok, the day of the final world battle, in which the old gods would perish and a new reign of peace and love would be instituted. Ordinary individuals were received after death by the goddess Hel in a cheerless underground world."
Zoroastrianism Mythology (650 – 330 B.C.E.
The Encarta Encyclopedia says, "Zoroastrianism, religion that arose from the teachings of the devotional poet Zoroaster, known as Zarathushtra to ancient Iranians, who is regarded as the faith's founding prophet. Scholars believe that Zoroaster lived sometime between 1750 and 1500 BC or 1400 and 1200 BC. The Zoroastrian scripture, called the Avesta, includes poems attributed to Zoroaster. The religion continues to be practiced today by Zoroastrian communities in India, Iran, the United States, Canada, and other countries."
"Zoroastrians believe that Ahura Mazda created humans as allies in the cosmic struggle against evil and that humanity will be resurrected and granted immortality once evil has been defeated. They further view the material world as a trap into which evil has been lured and in which evil will undergo defeat by divinities and humans working together. Zoroastrianism preaches that when someone dies his or her soul undergoes individual judgment based on actions while alive. If the soul's good deeds are greater than its evil deeds, it enters paradise. If the soul's evil deeds outweigh the good done while alive, it is cast into hell to await the day of universal judgment. In cases where a soul's good deeds equal its evil deeds, it is consigned to limbo."
"Close to the end of time a savior will resurrect the dead, Zoroastrianism claims. Ahura Mazda will descend to earth with the other good spirits. Each sinner, having already suffered in hell or limbo after death, will be purified. Thereafter, immortality will be granted to all humans. Ahura Mazda, the holy immortals, and other divine beings will annihilate the demons and force Angra Mainyu to scuttle back into hell, which will then be sealed."
"The Zoroastrian doctrine of heaven, hell, and limbo influenced other faiths. Islam absorbed not only the ideas of heaven, hell, and limbo, but also the scheme of individual judgment at a celestial bridge and the notion of final, universal judgment. Christianity further assimilated the Zoroastrian belief of the soul's afterlife and the appearance of a savior, resurrection, and eternal life at the end of the world. "[5]
Learning the Truth About Hell
Church leaders who teach that hell is is a place of some fiery torment where the wicked burn for eternity are supporting a gross distortion of God and his qualities. True enough, the Bible does say that God will destroy the wicked. (2 Thess. 1:6-9) Nevertheless, God's righteous indignation is not such, that it becomes unjust, out of balance with his other qualities.
God is not hateful, spiteful or bitter. He asks, "Do I have any pleasure in the death of the wicked?" (Eze. 18:23, NASB) Think it through, if God has no please in the death of the wick, how are we to believe he would find justice, joy, happiness, and delight in an eternity of horrific torture? God's outstanding quality is love. (1 John 4:8) He has even commanded us to love our enemies (Matt 5:44), i.e., be willing to share the gospel with them if their heart condition should change. This mindset seems completely out of place with the idea of eternal torment.
Being Released from Hell?
Much confusion and misunderstanding has been caused through some Bible translations like the King James Version, which renders all of our original language words as hell: Sheol, Hades, Gehenna, and Tartarus. If we have a correct understanding of Gehenna and Hades, we will discover a truth that we never knew before. Gehenna is pictorial of a place where the dead go, who receive total destruction, with no hope of a resurrection, as Gehenna was an incinerator. Hades, on the other hand, is the grave, where there is the hope of a future resurrection.
After Jesus died and was resurrected, the apostle Peter stated the following about Jesus,
Acts 2:27 English Standard Version (ESV)
27 For you will not abandon my soul to Hades [hell KJV],
or let your Holy One see corruption.
Acts 2:31-32 English Standard Version (ESV)
31 he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that he was not abandoned to Hades [hell KJV], nor did his flesh see corruption. 32 This Jesus God raised up, and of that we all are witnesses.
Peter was quoting Psalm 16:10 in verse 31 of Acts 2, where he clearly stated Jesus was resurrected from hades,
Psalm 16:10 English Standard Version (ESV)
10 For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol [hell KJV],
or let your holy one see corruption.
As we can see the transliteration of original language word, in Psalm is Sheol and in Acts, it is Hades, which is rendered by just one word in the King James Version. The King James Version renders Sheol as "hell," "the grave," and "the pit;" Hades is therein rendered both "hell" and "grave;" Gehenna is also translated "hell;" and Tartarus is rendered as "hell." When Jesus was in Hades for three days, he was not in some fiery place of torment. Hades [hell KJV] was the grave from which Jesus received a resurrection. Moreover, Jesus is not the only person who will receive a resurrection from Hades [hell KJV].
In connection with the resurrection, the Bible says, "Death and Hades [hell KJV] gave up the dead who were in them." (Rev. 20:13, 14, ESV) Here we see God emptying Hades, i.e., hell, which will mean that those who are worthy will be restored to life in a resurrection. (John 5:28-29; Acts 24:15) This is the great hope that should be in every Christian heart and mind, seeing those that we loved return from Hades [hell, KJV], namely, the grave! The God of infinite love will carry this out.

Whether you are one who favors the King James Version or one who prefers a modern translation, Andrews will answer the questions that have long been asked for centuries about the King James Bible and far more.

It's not so much that I'm concerned that it will flip, but it's enough that I paused the first few times it happened. All that said, my two year old loves it so much and it's great for expending energy when he's stuck inside. Easy enough take the handle off and fold the legs for storage. I would purchase again, but I do wish it was a little more secure on the ground.
I love the Little tikes trampoline line. So of course I love the biggest version. We are a trampoline family! It's our favorite pass time during the summer and fall months. Trust me when I say the quality is a big deal with trampolines. We've had many break at the seam after only a month or so of use. This material feels strong and the stitching is well done. Looking forward to a fun summer with screams of joy from the kiddos jumping on this! Please note I am writing this review as a part of a contest but my statements are true!
Over the past several decades, national estimates of trampoline injury numbers have been generated annually by using the US Consumer Product Safety Commission's (USCPSC) National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS).6 Trampoline injuries increased throughout the 1990s, with case numbers more than doubling between 1991 and 1996 (from approx 39 000 to >83 000 injuries per year). Injury rates and trampoline sales both peaked in 2004 and have been decreasing since then (Table 1).6,7 As home trampoline use appears to be waning, commercial trampoline parks and other trampoline installations have been emerging over the past several years. Although indoor commercial parks typically consist of multiple contiguous trampoline mats with padded borders, other setups are highly variable. Any effect of these facilities on trampoline injury trends should be monitored but is not yet evident.
Trampoline Net/Trampoline Enclosure: The trampoline net can become damaged in high winds if garden debris is blown into it or maybe the trampoline has been blown over and the safety enclosure got damaged in the process. The net can also be damaged by children gabbing it while they are jumping and pulling it down.
With 5 separate patents and over 25 trampoline safety innovations, AlleyOOP by JumpSport makes the only advanced, safety-engineered trampolines in the world. The average car buyer spends over $2000 for a full set of airbags that will probably never be used, but every time your kids jump on an AlleyOOP trampoline, their growing bodies and your peace of mind will benefit from ALL our proven safety systems.
In a world where we're increasingly distracted by technology, keeping us glued to our couches and our screens, we have to remember to encourage physical activity. Having a trampoline is an easy way to get fun, accessible exercise for the whole family! If you're considering buying a bouncy addition for your backyard, you might be concerned about how to keep your children safe on the trampoline.

The lower extremity is the most common site of trampoline injury, accounting for 34% to 50% of injuries.11,20 Of these injuries, 1 study revealed that >60% involved the ankle,20 and approximately three-quarters of ankle injuries were sprains.6 The upper extremities were injured in 24% to 36% of cases. Of these, approximately 60% were fractures.3,11 Upper extremity injuries were more common in participants who fell off the trampoline.12
"If a child is on a trampoline with other users, especially if the other users are heavier than the child, as the other individuals come down and recoil back up, if the child at that very moment is coming down and their body meets this trampoline mat coming up with great velocity, there'll be a tremendous amount of energy transferred to that child's foot and ankle and leg. And that's a setup for injury.
However, rebounder trampolines are normally only two to four feet in diameter and only a couple feet off the ground. This means you can store them in your house and use them for exercise purposes. After all, it is a lot more fun to jump on a big trampoline than a rebounder trampoline. However, rebounder trampolines are designed for exercise, not for fun.
On your mark, get set and bounce! This Little Tikes Easy Store 3ft Folding Trampoline is all you need to keep your little one jumping no matter what time of the year. It is easy to move and set-up, so that kids can bounce anytime they like. This fun mini trampoline comes with a padded bar that stabilizes the bouncer as kids play, and a soft, padded cover protects your little ones as they climb on and off the trampoline.
Type of bounce: Some rebounders will give you a lot of bounce, and others will give you barely any at all. Don't be tricked into thinking that the more bounce, the better the rebounder is. It really depends on what you're using the rebounder for - if it's mainly for cardio, then get a lot of bounce; if it's mainly for lymphatic system "cleanup", get one with not a lot of bounce. The latter will be easier to do and you won't get as tired.
Destini had been showing her mom gymnastics moves she'd been practicing when the accident happened. Like many parents, Prouty had assumed that as long as her daughter followed general safety rules such as only one child on the trampoline at a time, Destini would be fine. But even when safety precautions are taken, trampolines can still be dangerous, said Dr. Michele LaBotz, a lead author of the new AAP statement and a sports medicine physician at Intermed Sports Medicine in Portland, Me.
A comparison of trampoline injury prevalence with those from other sports and recreational activities provides a sense of the societal burden of injury; however, it does not reflect the true risk of trampoline use by an individual. Risk takes into account the exposure or frequency of a given activity, and unfortunately, exposure data for many recreational activities, including trampoline use, are difficult to define and measure. Trampoline injury rates for 2009 were 70 per 100 000 for 0- to 4-year-olds6 and increased to 160 per 100 000 for 5- to 14-year-olds. Injury rates attributable to bicycling and use of playground equipment were higher in these age groups, but population exposure was likely significantly greater in these 2 activities as well.
Type of bounce: Some rebounders will give you a lot of bounce, and others will give you barely any at all. Don't be tricked into thinking that the more bounce, the better the rebounder is. It really depends on what you're using the rebounder for - if it's mainly for cardio, then get a lot of bounce; if it's mainly for lymphatic system "cleanup", get one with not a lot of bounce. The latter will be easier to do and you won't get as tired.

In 2012, a former employee claimed in a lawsuit that she was requested to create thousands of fake female accounts attractive to male customers, resulting in repetitive stress injury. In July 2016, CEO Rob Segal and newly appointed President James Millership told Reuters that the company had phased out bots by late 2015.Segal shared an independent report by EY (Ernst & Young) which verified the phase-out.She had previously released an analysis purporting to show that only a minuscule proportion (12,000 out of 5.5 million) registered female accounts were used on a regular basis, Newitz noted a clause in the terms of service which states that some accounts are for amusement purposes only.
The release included data from customers who had previously paid a fee to Ashley Madison to supposedly have their data deleted.In 2015, the Ontario Superior Court dismissed the case without costs, a result with which Avi Weisman, vice-president and general counsel for Avid Life Media, said the company was "very pleased".the site was hacked by a group known as "The Impact Team".Chinese (simplified and traditional), Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazilian and European), Russian, Slovenian, Spanish (European, American), Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian Ashley Madison, or The Ashley Madison Agency, is a Canadian online dating service and social networking service marketed to people who are married or in relationships.It was founded in 2002 by Darren Morgenstern, with the slogan: "Life is short.

Springtime spinner baits are perfect in cloudy water
By Mike Sweeney
Saturday, April 7, 2018
When it comes to spring time bass fishing the weather controls what and where we fish and with the rain and wind the water clouds up on us and we end up fishing muddy water even if we don't want it.
The thing about cloudy water is the fish are still biting but they tune into different things other than sight to find their prey.
They rely more on vibration and smell to find their bait and for that the spinner bait shines.
The spinner bait is an old school bait around here and almost nobody throws it anymore but that is exactly why we want to have one tied onto our rod.
This bait is perfect in cloudy or muddy water and the vibration and sound will attract a bite when no other bait will.
Because it is not a popular bait makes it that much better with fish that have never seen the bait before and it will attract the fish when other baits may not.
A spinner bait shines in dirty water with flash and vibration that cannot be duplicated by other baits.
You want a bait that has Colorado or Indiana blades which are more round and vibrate more in the water.
These blades fished just under the surface will bring a strike that will make your heart stop and when they do strike you want to set the hook with everything you have on that rod.
I grew up fishing spinner baits on the Potomac River in the grass beds and pads so when you fish a bait that long you learn a few tricks that will put you in a better position to draw a strike.
A spinner bait can be worked at different depths and speeds to match what the fish wants so I usually fish a 3/8 ounce first in either white or white and chartreuse.
I throw the bait up to the bank and work it back to the boat just below the surface if the water temps are high and just out of sight if the water is cold.
I like to let the fish tell me what they want for depth and speed so I change up till I find the right combination in order to get a strike.
So when the big rains come in and dirty up the water don't forget the spinner bait when you leave the dock.
What's biting, where...
The offshore report is looking up with lots of tuna action coming into all the marinas.
The yellowfin have begun to show up in good numbers along with some blackfin.
Throw in some good bottom fishing and the occasional king fish and you have a good day on the blue water.
The big thing is the wind has finally slowed down enough to get out so now we can reach these fish.
On the beaches and piers we have skate and dogfish showing up on the northern shorelines but the best bet is still the point.
It is such a dynamic place to fish with the sweeping tides and constantly moving water there is always a place to catch fish.
Right now the sharks have moved in on the south side but if you go to the end of the island at ramp 49 or 50 you still have a shot at a puppy drum or two.
We also have the blow toads showing up which means the rest of the species will be right behind them.
Locally we have been on the largemouth bite with some nice fish coming into the boats.
I have a report that Bobby Moore and Vince Hoium from Moyock was fishing the Northwest River and Vince caught an 8.4-pound largemouth on a spinner bait.
Those guys are the kings of that river and have been on the fish for the past couple of years.
The bass are loving this warmer weather and the water temps are rising so the fishing will only get better.
The striper are still around with the sound bridge paying off on stretch lures and umbrella rigs.
The crappie have been moving up to spawn also with creeks being your best bet from the reports I have been getting.
If anyone gets out this week send me a report and some bragging pictures to firstname.lastname@example.com or hit me up on Facebook at Fishing with Mike and let me know how you did.

Choose The Right eCommerce Platform From Woocommerce And Magento!

With the boom of digital marketing, more and more companies are exploring various e-commerce platforms for better business prospects. Among two of the most popular e-commerce platforms are Woocommerce and Magento.
Choose The Right eCommerce Platform From Woocommerce And Magento!
With the boom of digital marketing, more and more companies are exploring various e-commerce platforms for better business prospects. Among two of the most popular e-commerce platforms are Woocommerce and Magento. With individual strengths and suitability of both these platforms, Magento vs Woocommerce have always been a constant topic of debate. Although both platforms are quite popular among the individual set of users, to make a choice out of them you need to determine your overall business needs and answer the important questions such as-
Is your business in need of a platform to run a fast, customized, scalable and flexible e-Commerce store?
Or it is in need of more a content-based website with limited e-Commerce functions?
Understanding Woocommerce (WordPress)
Woocommerce is essentially a plug-in for the WordPress that allows the website owners to have a set of e-Commerce functions built into WordPress. It is important to note here that WordPress is an open source content management system and is considered extremely user-friendly. Although plugin through Woocommerce allows having certain e-Commerce functionality on a WordPress site, it is still very basic and its limited feature set might not be sufficient for the growing needs of an expanding online store/ business.
Understanding Magento
A widely used platform by businesses worldwide, Magento is also an open source e-Commerce platform that comes with various features and enterprise level options through extensive Magento Commerce suite including following models-
* Magento Custom Development
If you wish to integrate customized functionality in any of the existing projects, custom solutions will allow you to do that. Qualified service provider offer assistance to online merchants in order to transform Magento into the best and tailor fit for their business.
* Magento Enterprise Development
Magento Enterprise development solutions offer robust flexibility & control over the content along with performance optimization.
The main aim of Magento as an e-commerce platform is to provide extensive set of features dedicated to better facilitate e-Commerce functions. One of the primary advantages of Magento is that it is able to support a wide range of e-Commerce sites and also cater to the demands of growing businesses. Furthermore, Magento is customizable to fit varied needs of e-Commerce businesses and functionality. Magento also allows the option of creating and managing websites through integrated content management system (CMS) along with selecting and controlling information to share across multiple online forums.
So what are the differences between Magento and Woocommerce?
The main difference between the two is the fact that while Magento is a standalone product, Woocommerce is a plugin for WordPress. Woocommerce is mainly supported and used by the WordPress users whereas Magento is backed mainly by eBay.
Another the other difference between the two platforms is costing involved. Although both e-commerce platforms are free at the beginning and can be downloaded to get started by the online stores; with the growing demands of business, there are various payments required to use the platforms. Woocommerce is limited to basic options and the plugin and extensions that users buy will add up to the costing.
Woocommerce is easy to use and cheap to set up, which makes it ideal for small operations whereas Magento is a dedicated e-commerce platform tailored to web development professionals and medium to large online stores that comes with robust feature sets.
Strengths of Magento over Woocommerce
Magneto's E-commerce website development solution is gaining a lot of popularity in web development space as it is a robust e-commerce platform that provides online stores/retailers a strong system to scale & rapidly grow their online business. However, choosing a professionally qualified Magento Development Company is crucial for the online businesses as it can bring the strategic advantage of Magento platform to achieve integration of various solutions and multiple extensions to a single platform.
Various other benefits of Magento e-commerce platform include-
* Excellent flexibility to cater to unique needs of individual businesses
* Mobile compatible features for superior customer experience
* An open source e-Commerce platform that comes with various features and enterprise level options through extensive Magento Commerce suite
* Able to support a wide range of e-Commerce sites and also cater to the demands of growing businesses
* Customizable to fit varied needs of e-Commerce businesses and functionality
Last Thoughts
Woocommerce and Magento both are great e-commerce platforms with different features and functions. The need is to identify the primary function of your online store/website and accordingly make your pick. Magento makes an ideal choice if the main function of the website is to sell products online as it offers great versatility and scalability. Whereas if you're looking for a platform to suit small-scale business needs such as selling digital products without any complex shipping, you can choose Woocommerce plugin.
