Whoa. Somebody from MS is on the board??? Sweet.
Jenny, can you at least tell us if someone is going to update Wincache to compile under PHP 5.4.0? I am prepared if I have to do it, but it throws tons of error and not knowing the build very well, you know....

Thank you for your response though. Too little too late :(

I'm just started to look into the various issues. If this is one of the required things to be done, I'll sure do it. I need some time to get familiar with the code and environment.

Thanks for responding Jenny, good to see that somebody is on this. I'm seeing file locking problems on PHP 5.3.6 nts vc9 running on IIS 6 in fastcgi mode, with WinCache 1.2.614 when using the Drupal 7 update manager. PHP complains that it can't remove directories
(but it empties them ok), and it is possible to delete the emptied directories via Windows Explorer (which was not possible under older versions of WinCache, without an app pool recycle). I don't think Drupal is the culprit, I've seen the same behavior with

We have uploaded a development build which includes the fix for the drupal upgrade bug. https://sourceforge.net/projects/wincache/files/development/

The PHP 5.3 version works great in both my development and production environments. Thanks Jenny!
I'm also looking forward to the 5.2 version.

Russia's Mikhail Youzhny was so outclassed by Roger Federer at Wimbledon on Wednesday that he turned to the Centre Court Royal Box for help.
After slipping two sets to love down in his quarter-final, Youzhny appealed to tennis legends Rod Laver and Andre Agassi who were watching from their privileged positions alongside Prince William and wife Catherine.
"Can you tell me what I'm supposed to do out here?," said the 30-year-old, who went into Wednesday's match having lost all of his previous 13 meetings with Federer.

Oops Freudian slip there- I mean counseling.
Are there particular resources you guys like over others?
Oops Freudian slip there- I mean counseling.
Are there particular resources you guys like over others?
Last edited by Gary Creely; July 26th, 2012 at 01:37 PM.
My Dad uses the Prepare/Enrich assessment (which requires training and, I think, has a new name now). I think that works pretty well as an initial assessment - he generally uses it to find the areas where the actual counseling should focus.
I've not done extensive counseling and generally had pretty solid relationships with people ahead of time. I've used more discussion based processes - usually involving the books Real Sex by Lauren Winner and Sex God by Rob Bell. I've found those are great starting points for looking at Christian marriage, especially for younger couples.
...just my $.02.Post Thanks / Like - 3 Thanks, 0 Laughing
I'm still looking for a study that shows the success rates of people who had
1) No premarital counseling
2) Clergy led premarital counseling
3) Professional Christian premarital counseling
4) Professional Non-Christian premarital counseling
I'd be really interested to know if there is a quantifiable difference in divorce rates...
Post Thanks / Like - 3 Thanks, 0 Laughing
If there is pre-marital concealing, we will also need resources for marital counseling.
On second thought, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place.
I have been using the Prepare / Enrich material for a couple of years now and have found it the better than anything I've used in my previous 30 years of pastoring. My daughter is a licensed Counselor/Therapist and speaks highly of it also. The websight for it is www.prepare-enrich.com
Post Thanks / Like - 3 Thanks, 0 Laughing
That is a fair question, but I am not convinced reducing the divorce rate is the only worthwhile outcome of counseling. I would also imagine it would depend on who the counselor is and and the type of program they are using.
Maybe the successes of premarital counseling could be best measured by the number of couple who decide not to get married at the end of it.
Overall I believe it does more good than harm, and most couples take it very seriously.
Although I have not done a wedding yet, I took the Prepare-Enrich course. My pastor recommended it. I hope to use it at some point.
I am the Lone Locust of the Apocalypse! Think of me when you look to the night sky!
I use an approach that has evolved over the years. It begins with a Taylor-Johnson Temperament Analysis and then goes on to address the issues the TJTA brings forward. Couples I've used it with have seemed to found it beneficial.
Loving God . . . Loving others.
I too use Prepare/Enrich. The Air Force makes sure every chaplain goes through the training and can facilitate premarital counseling with it. In my experience, it is one of the most thorough resources out there. Each person takes an inventory and then both their answers are scored and placed in a report. The report displays areas where the couple has relationship strengths, possible strengths, possible growth areas, and growth areas. They cover topics like communication, conflict resolution, family & friends, spiritual beliefs, and more. From the report, I can then guide the couple through a workbook and sessions that are tied to their responses for counseling.
Ideally, with Prepare/Enrich you would meet with the couple for 6-8 weeks. Prepare is more for premarital and enrich focuses on already married. The only differences are some of the questions in the survey. Personally, I usually find that I do premarital for about four sessions. I find the full report more useful for enrich (or couples that are devitalized).
I have also worked out a very simple premarital document with some other military chaplains (1 page) that I will use for those instances when time is of the essence. For example, last summer we had a window of 72 hours where a soldier was back on R&R and his girlfriend, who lived in a different state, would be at the base so they could be married before he deployed again overseas. We also knew that the soldier had been talking with a chaplain down-range and his fiance was working with her local pastor as well. But I usually default to Prepare/Enrich.
I have the couple pay for the survey themselves. They do it online when they take the survey. In the weddings I have done, couples were more amenable to paying and taking the survey than reading a book.
Post Thanks / Like - 2 Thanks, 0 LaughingRich Schmidt, Gary Creely - "thanks" for this post
I was certified to use Prepare/Enrich as part of my MA studies at ONU. It is also what my wife and I went through in our premarital counseling this spring. It was very helpful to us as we saw the areas of strength in our relationship and discovered some areas that need particular attention. It will likely be the program that I default to using throughout my ministry, unless something better is made available to me.
It would be interesting to see that one page document though.
Just recalled a conversation with a colleague in Pittsburgh. When a couple asks him to marry them, he gives them three certificates they must get signed and return to him before he'll proceed any further.
1) A certificate of completion from a professional, licensed counsellor
2) A certificate of completion from a Dave Ramsey FinancialPeace course
3) A certificate of completion from an ALPHA course
Until they've done those things, he won't even consider it. As much as I like it, it would never work around here, 2 of the 3 are not available nearby that I am aware of.
Well... I just sent in a check and registration form for a P/E training session next month. I confess that I've been a bit scattershot with premarital enrichment... and this may at least provide a bit more structure for me. As the local "funeral guy," weddings are just not as much my cup of tea.
Grace and Peace,

Did I mention "Saving Your Marriage Before it Starts" by Parrott and Parrott. Problem is not too many couples wait to start their marriage before pre marriage counseling. By the time of the wedding they are already married and there is really no surprises. SO we now go on to the Parrott's second book, "Saving your Second Marriage Before it Starts" but once again not too many couples wait to start their second marriage before the wedding.
I used to use that with couples, VHS tapes and all. I really liked some of it. But it assumed that you're working with young Christian couples with limited experience, so it wasn't fitting a lot of the couples I was working with.
Then I started using a book by Family Life. I forget the title. It was good, except for the chapter on roles in marriage, which took a pretty strong complementarian view.
My Dad used to use Foccus for the couples questionnaire/inventory portion and seemed to really like it. I used it with a couple of couples... and it wasn't especially helpful. Seemed like if there weren't any big red flags, it didn't have much to offer... but that failing might have been mine, not the instrument's.
Now I'm going to find and sign up for a Prepare/Enrich training. I need a tool to use, and this sounds like a good one.

You might check with Olivet and find out if Dr. Max Reams is going to be offering any training. He is the one who trained my class a year ago for my MA. I don't know how often he does it outside of that class but he might also know if anyone else is offering training in the immediate area of ONU (within an hour or so).

Southern Gospel style music has been popular in the south, where it was born, for over 60 years. The origional Crossroads Quartet and Don Olson, our baritone, and his family were responsonsible for bringing it to the Northwest. In the 40's the origional Olson Brothers Quartet was singing Southern Gospel throughout the country and were a regular featured group on local radio programs out of Seattle. In the 60's the origional Crossroads Quartet was formed and joined with the Olson Brothers Quartet to promote Gospel Concerts in the major cities of the Northwest and Western Canada. It is our desire to be a ministry that is edifying to our audiances and draws each person closer to Jesus. We sing because he lives in our hearts and gives us a reason to rejoyce in song. We will sing for any group that will stand still long enough to listen. Come and enjoy one of our concerts or invite us to sing for your chuch or function.

It was very difficult to tell the detainees that, in fact, there is virtually no international body that can compel the government to release them. It now depends on the king to realize that their ongoing imprisonment will keep the country imprisoned in conflict as well.

Warnings: The True Story of How Science Tamed the Weather ReviewWhen cutting edge technology works and lives are saved it rapidly becomes ho-hum; violent death that did not happen doesn't make the television news or newspaper headlines. How many recall that a three-day storm over the Great Lakes in the 1800s would routinely kill 500 people, a hurricane in Galveston in 1900 killed more than 6,000, or that before 1960 a strong cold front spawning tornadoes could kill or mutilate a few thousand as it raced across the country? We have a short national memory, which is probably why weather scientists have not been heaped with more medals than they could carry for the lives they've saved in the last sixty years.Mike Smith grew up at precisely the right time to become an intimate part of the revolution in weather analysis and forecasting that, outside the public eye, surged through this country. He writes of the efforts of weather scientists who not only did the research that allowed accurate forecasts of severe weather but took the steps to create a warning system that meant scores of Americans didn't die in their beds each year as their houses blew up around them in tornadoes. It is a story of creativity and determination fighting bureaucracy and of humanity at its best as ad hoc teams formed between meteorologists who had learned to forecast severe storms and TV and radio broadcasters who had enough foresight and willingness to come up with new and faster ways to get word to the people that bad things were about to happen in their world and how to protect themselves.
This year when tornadoes hit Kentucky and five people died, we didn't stop to think that before our modern warning systems the death toll would probably have been 100; we don't remember that we would lose one or two airliners full of passengers each year in wind shear crashes on takeoff or landing - we've only had one in the last 20 years because the meteorologists we are so quick to castigate figured out what a downburst was, how intensely powerful it could be and how to accurately forecast one and get a warning out so that airplanes stayed away from them. We also don't know how stupidly resistant the Federal Aviation Administration was to allowing such warnings to be transmitted or to sharing severe weather information it had with the non-aviation community. Mike Smith tells these stories in a riveting fashion.
Mike Smith had personal involvement in the rapidly developing world of saving lives by forecasting severe weather and warning people where it was going to hit. He writes about it in a style that is exciting; I found myself rescheduling appointments because I wasn't willing to stop reading. When I was done, I was convinced there should be a Nobel Prize for weather analysis and forecasting because it's saved so many lives.Warnings: The True Story of How Science Tamed the Weather OverviewExperience the most devastating storms of the last fifty years through the eyes of the scientific visionaries who took them on and tamed them.
For decades, the author, a pioneering meteorologist, has dedicated himself to saving lives by combining science, experience, and instinct. The struggle to understand nature's fury provides fascinating insights into the natural forces that shape our world, and the turbulent politics that influence our scientific establishment.
Tracing the Herculean effort to improve weather forecasting and advanced warning systems, the author draws fascinating biographical sketches of the scientists behind the breakthroughs, such as Dr. Theodore Fujita, creator of the Fujita Scale for tornado measurement.
With its gripping story-telling approach to major natural disasters, Warnings is narrative nonfiction at its heart-pounding best.
''I highly recommend this exceptional book.'' --Roger Pielke, Sr., Pielke Climate Science blog
''The weatherman's version of The Right Stuff--Mike Smith's Warnings. I recommend it highly.'' --Tom Fuller, The Examiner
''A fascinating journey inside the world of weather and the mind and heart of the meteorologist. A great read for anyone.'' --Bob Ryan, chief meteorologist, WRC TV (NBC), Washington DC, former president, American Meteorological Society
''This book chronicles the remarkable advances that have occurred in meteorology over the past 50 years--not through dry statistics but through very personal stories. The book discusses the virtual elimination of airline crashes due to wind shear and the thousands of lives saved by hurricane warnings. Its primary focus is on severe storms in the Midwestern U.S., but the issues raised about the evolution of forecasting the weather, and the impact those forecasts have on the people and commerce, are much more universal. The narrative throughout the book is engaging and compelling, and I found it very hard to put down after reading just the first few pages.This book is not just for hard-core weather enthusiasts or those who work in weather-related fields (though they will love it). Anyone who has ever watched a stormy sky on warm afternoon or felt moved by the images on the news following the Greensburg tornado or Hurricane Katrina (both of which are covered in this book) will get pulled into the narrative of this book.'' --Keith Seitter, Executive Director, American Meteorological Society Boston

The electrophysiological ups and downs of incremental sentence processing
: Event related brain potentials (ERPs) are an excellent measure of brain sensitivities during online sentence processing. They have provided insight into the nature of incremental interpretation of written sentences, which they (among other online measures) have revealed to be inherently predictive, at times less than fully incremental, and routinely subject to not only the contents but the functional organization (e.g., categories, events) of semantic memory. I will describe the logic and particulars of some of our electrophysiological studies that have led to these conclusions.

It's unlikely that any of the 70 or so adults and young people who attended Sunday's "Hope for Water" event at Sir Francis Drake High School ever missed a day of school because they had to gather water for their families.
Nevertheless, the five Ross Valley girls gathered at one table in the Drake cafeteria Sunday found it easy to sympathize with "Sia," a 13-year-old Liberian girl who found herself in exactly that situation.
"Maybe she has a sister or an older sibling who could get water for her, so that she could go to school," suggested seven-year-old Gloria Miros of Fairfax.
"Or maybe she could figure out a way to carry more than one load of water at a time," added seven-year-old Piper Bruner of San Anselmo.
The conversation — based on a hypothetical situation provided by the Global Fund for Women — ranged from the question of how to help Sia (most of the girls eventually agreed that digging a well closer to the center of her village would make her life easier) to the question of how anyone receives the water they need to live.
"We get our water from the reservoir, up at the lake, and from up in the Sierra mountains," said 10-year-old Cassidy Bruner of San Anselmo.
"But how could Sia get the water, if (Liberia) doesn't have pipes like we do?" Gloria asked.
That discussion is exactly the kind of conversation "Hope for Water" organizer Stephanie Hellman hoped would come of Sunday's
"I felt that my kids are so privileged, and I wanted to create an experience for them that would enable them to see that, and to realize what it means," Hellman said. "I think our public schools do a great job of including social, environmental and global issues into the curriculum for older (middle and high school) students, but younger students don't get that as much."
At first, Hellman said, she wanted to focus on problems of gender inequality.
"My daughters grow up feeling they can compete with boys," Hellman said. "They don't understand that that kind of equality isn't there for girls in most of the world."
After talking with a friend at Blue Planet Network — a Redwood City-based nonprofit that works to bring clean water to rural residents of developing nations — Hellman decided to highlight the need for access to fresh water.
"Water was something everyone could understand," said Hellman, noting that more than a billion people — one out of six people living on Earth — lack access to clean, safe drinking water.
Hellman also reached out to EcoMom Alliance founder Kimberly Danek Pinkson and members of the Global Fund for Women, a nonprofit organization that distributes grants to women's groups in 172 countries. Officials with Drake High School and the Ross Valley School District were more than happy to accommodate the event that resulted from their collaboration, Hellman said.
The event included presentations by each group, illustrating the difficulties faced by people worldwide in gaining access to water. Donations collected during the event, collected by the Global Fund for Women, will go towards digging five wells in the Nadia district of West Bengal, India — wells that will eventually bring water to five families.
"It would be great if we could build a pipe to the creek, and make a faucet for Sia's family," Piper said, during her group's discussion. "Then they could just turn on the faucet and get water, like we do."
Hellman hopes to continue that conversation by organizing future events.
"I've worked in corporate America for 20 years, working in financial services," Hellman said. "This is the most rewarding work I have ever done. My (nine-year-old) daughter and I were painting a poster together, and she turned to me and said 'Mom, what's our next project going to be?' "

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, which adopted measures to discourage a buyer amid
speculation it's an acquisition target, plans a 71 percent increase in its U.S. shop network by
2017 after restraining growth this fiscal year.
Krispy Kreme is targeting 400 outlets domestically, compared with a 234-store network in the
12 months through January 2012 and 240 in the year ending this month, the Winston- Salem,
N.C.-based retailer said yesterday in a statement.
The company reiterated a target set a year ago of expanding franchises abroad to 900 outlets in 2017 from 506 currently.

Posted: Sep 5, 2012 9:12 PM by Melissa Anderson - MTN News
One of the largest animal rescue missions in Montana is wreaking havoc for some Helena area neighbors.
Neighbors living across the street from more than 160 confiscated Malamutes are frustrated over the noise they have to put up with day and night.
But the Lewis and Clark Humane Society says its living up to the mission of taking care of the dogs and not breaking any laws.
For the past three months, the Lode family has been living with the howling and barking of dozens of Malamutes. The rescued animals are considered evidence in an animal cruelty case in Jefferson County.
The dogs are housed in a greenhouse across the street from the Lode family.
Theresa Lode says they bark during feeding times and even in the middle of the night.
"We're awakened at 5:30 in the morning, 4:30 in the morning, during the day. I work from home so this has been very challenging having this distraction constantly in the background," said Theresa.
The Lodes have complained about the noise, but were told there is nothing that can be done, since there is no zoning in the area, and no noise ordinance.
"The Humane Society, as we understand it so far, falls under this category of animal boarding facility and so they are exempted from the dog control ordinance," said Jay Lode.
Gina Wiest of the Lewis and Clark Humane Society said, "We are within our rights to have those animals there. I'm sorry that he is being disturbed in his home."
But the Lodes say the barking has got to stop.
They have been keeping a "barking log" to document their situation.
Wiest said that the Humane Society has tried to mitigate the noise: "We did put up styrofoam insulating board on the windows. And that was to the tune of probably about $300. We did paint the ceiling trying to do some sound behavior mitigation there as well. These poor animals have been, you know, through the ringer and we really really want to do the best for them. Unfortunately the wheels of justice do not move fast."
After the court case they hope to adopt out all of the dogs; once they get the count down to about 40 dogs, they will have room to relocate them back at the animal shelter in Helena.
In the meantime neighbors in the area will have to either turn a deaf ear or continue to shut the windows until the court case in October.
The court date for the dogs' owner, Mike Chillinski, is scheduled for Oct. 15.

Denmark Tax Alert - 18 January 2012Tax authorities lose another beneficial ownership case |
By Jens Wittendorff, Birgitte Tabbert and Kim Wind Andersen
The Danish National Tax Tribunal published its decision on 13 January 2012 in the fourth of a series of cases dealing with the beneficial ownership of dividends and interest paid by a Danish company to a nonresident holding company (SKM2012.26.LSR). The tribunal ruled in favor of the taxpayer, with the result that the dividends could be paid from Denmark free from Danish withholding tax.
This is the first case in which the National Tax Tribunal has found that an EU parent company was the beneficial owner of dividends covered by the EU Parent-Subsidiary Directive (PSD).
Under Danish tax law, dividends and interest paid to a nonresident company are subject to withholding tax unless certain conditions are satisfied. The withholding tax is currently 27% (28% before 1 January 2012) on dividends paid to a parent company, and 25% on interest. The rate may be reduced or eliminated if a taxpayer is entitled to invoke the benefits of a tax treaty or the PSD or the Interest and Royalties Directive. To benefit from treaty protection, the taxpayer normally must be the beneficial owner of the relevant income.
The acquisition of many Danish companies by corporate investors and private equity funds in recent years has prompted the Danish tax authorities to examine the structuring and fund flows of such acquisitions. These tax audits have given rise to a number of cases where the tax authorities have asserted that nonresident holding companies located within the EU or in treaty countries are not the beneficial owners of dividends and interest paid by Danish companies. The tax authorities have taken the position that the payments were subject to withholding tax and charged the Danish companies for failing to meet their withholding tax obligations.
Facts of the case
The most recent beneficial ownership case involved a U.S. listed company that owned a Danish company (Denmark ApS) through its subsidiary in Bermuda (Bermuda Ltd.). A dividend distribution from Denmark ApS to Bermuda Ltd. would trigger Danish withholding tax of 28%. To avoid the withholding tax, Bermuda Ltd. established a subsidiary in Cyprus (Cyprus Ltd.) that acquired all the shares in Denmark ApS for EUR 90 million. Shortly thereafter, Denmark ApS distributed dividends in the amount of approximately EUR 76 million to its new parent company, Cyprus Ltd. Cyprus Ltd. used the funds to repay the EUR 76 million to its parent company, Bermuda Ltd., which Bermuda Ltd. had loaned to Cyprus Ltd. to enable it to acquire the shares in Denmark ApS. One year later, Denmark ApS distributed another dividend of approximately EUR 12 million to Cyprus Ltd., which again was passed on to Bermuda Ltd.
The main function of Cyprus Ltd. in the years at issue was to own shares in Denmark ApS. Cyprus Ltd. did not have an office or any personnel in Cyprus.
The legal structure after the reorganization was as follows:
Arguments of the parties
The Danish tax authorities took the position Cyprus Ltd. was not the beneficial owner of the dividends under article 10 of the Denmark-Cyprus tax treaty and, therefore, the dividends should be subject to the 28% withholding tax. According to the authorities, the Cyprus holding company was a mere conduit company and the sole purpose of the arrangement was to circumvent Danish withholding tax on dividends. The tax authorities also argued that neither EU law nor article 5 of the PSD prevented Denmark from levying withholding tax on the dividends.
The taxpayer claimed that article 1(2) of the PSD, which authorizes Member States to apply anti-avoidance measures, requires that such measures be set forth in domestic tax law. Denmark does not have any specific anti-avoidance rules on beneficial ownership, so Denmark would have to rely on domestic substance-over-form or assignment of income doctrines. The taxpayer argued that the requirements for invoking these doctrines were not met in the case.
The taxpayer also argued that Cyprus Ltd. was the beneficial owner of the dividends because it could not be considered a conduit company. Alternatively, if Cyprus Ltd. could not be considered the beneficial owner, US Inc. would have to be considered the beneficial owner of the dividends because Bermuda Ltd. had redistributed the dividends to its ultimate parent company, US Inc. in 2005. As a result, the Denmark-U.S. treaty should apply, which would also result in no Danish withholding tax.
Decision of the tribunal
The National Tax Tribunal concluded that Cyprus Ltd. could not be considered the beneficial owner of the dividends under article 10 of the Denmark-Cyprus treaty because the dividend distributions made by Denmark ApS to Cyprus Ltd. were subsequently passed on to Bermuda Ltd.
The tribunal held that, regardless of the possible onward distribution of the dividends to the U.S. company, the Denmark-Cyprus treaty is the applicable treaty for purposes of determining the withholding tax consequences. Neither the Denmark-Cyprus treaty (or commentary thereto) nor the commentary to the OECD model treaty seems to allow the application of another tax treaty.
The tribunal stated that article 5 of the PSD exempts dividends distributed by an EU subsidiary to its EU parent company from withholding tax. No anti-abuse concept can be inferred from the general rule in the PSD. Article 1(2) gives Member States the discretion to deviate from the directive in cases of abuse, etc.; the PSD does not preclude the application of domestic law or treaty provisions necessary to prevent fraud and abuse. Although Denmark has not adopted any legislation to this effect, it relies on its general principles, including case law, to disregard abusive arrangements.
However, in the present case, the Cypriot company was a legally established and properly functioning company, and by virtue of its ownership of the shares in the Danish company, was the proper recipient of the dividends distributed by the Danish company. The fact that the main activity of Cyprus Ltd. was to hold shares in the Danish company did not necessarily imply that it was not a commercial operation and, thus, the case differed from other cases in which the Danish Supreme Court has ruled that an arrangement was abusive and, therefore, should be disregarded. As a result, under article 5 of the PSD, the distributions by the Danish company are exempt from withholding tax.
Although the facts of this case are somewhat different from the facts of the other cases involving dividend distributions, the decision seems to indicate the tribunal's position on the application of tax treaties and the PSD to withholding tax on dividends. The Ministry of Taxation is considering whether to appeal the case to the High Court.

B and he has an unusual looking swing. He had such a phenomenal year last year, I think he gets a tremendous amount out of what he does and how he plays. I think he gets the max out of it.
(On Bubba Watson): "I'd have to say he's got the most phenomenal hands of anyone I have ever seen."
THE POST And then the flip side of the question is, who's getting the least out of the most talent?
HARMON I think the biggest underachiever that I know is Darren Clarke, and I say that affectionately. Darren is a dear friend of mine. I love Clarkie and I was so, so happy for him when he won the Open Championship last year, but this man is a tremendous talent and I don't think he has ever achieved the status that those of us who know him, those of us that have worked with him, ever thought that he could because he has so much talent. But you know, it's just his nature and personality but I think he's probably the biggest underachiever of all the players.
HARMON Of modern-day players, it would have to be Bubba Watson. When you look at his swing on film, you wouldn't think that he could break
80. Watch him play and he is a phenomenal player. He does it all with his hands. From what I understand, he learned how to play golf as a kid with a whiffle ball. Where he would just curve it around trees in the backyard and around everything. And so I'd have to say he's got the most phenomenal hands of anyone I have ever seen.
THE POST There are Seve fans who would read that and cringe. HARMON Well, but we're not just talking about the short game, we're not talking about hitting shots out of trouble, we're talking about every shot he hits.
THE POST Finally, your new video – "Harmon About Golf." It's unique.
It's almost like a reference library. A player can come in after a round and find the area that covers what he or she was struggling with and watch that part of the video.
HARMON It's an accumulation of every-thing I've tried to learn in my life, fromthe golf swing to about how to play golf.I'm very happy with how it turned out.Normally, when you do videos, and I'vedone a bunch of them, when you finallyget it out there, you always wish youcould have done this, or wish I couldhave done that. I don't think there'sanything in there that I wished that wecould have done that we didn't do. l Butch on Bubba: "You wouldn't think he could break 80."
simple. It's probably the simplest swing I've ever seen as far as someone could copy it. The best swing that I'd ever seen was Tiger Woods in 2000. Technically, it was the most sound swing I think I'd ever seen. If you watch it on film and you watch the positions he was in, you can't find a flaw with it. Of the modern-day players, I'd say Adam Scott probably fundamentally has as good a swing as anybody in the game.
THE POST Couple of quick hitters: Who has the best golf mind of anybody – player or teacher – you've ever seen? HARMON I would have to say my father had the best. He was phenomenal. Not only was he a phenomenal player, he was a phenomenal teacher. He had the ability to see and diagnose, teaching faster than anyone I have ever seen and he had the credibility. He would have to be at the pinnacle for me.
THE POST Got it.
HARMON Yeah, I wouldn't disagree about Seve or Olazabal. You'd have to put Seve and Olazabal on the same boat there as far as the way their creativity was, that was more when they were in trouble or with the short game. Bubba Watson does it on every swing. And with modern equipment and these modern balls, they don't curve nearly as much as they used to and he has the ability to curve the heck out of them.
THE POST The best hands in golf that you have ever seen?
THE POST Who has the best swing in golf? HARMON The swing that I like the most, that if I could imitate it myself or of anyone, is Jeff Sluman's swing. It's very

1. | ginger kids | ||
Red haired, freckled faced, and light skinned youths. They have no soul, must stay away from sun, are creepy, and... in the middle of the night, will come to get you. The gene is recessive, and can remain dormant until adolescence. Stay away from ginger kids. In the 9th season of South Park, Eric became what he despised: a ginger kid. He then became the leader of the ginger kids supremacist group, whose main intent was to exterminate all non-gingers.
2. | ginger kids | ||
they have red hair,freckles,pale skin. but they make amazing friends. and all those haters need to shut they're faces because they are idiots and don't know what they are talking about. so get a life and stop insulting gingers. and by the way gingers are people too. so stop insulting them. do you know how bad that can feel. my BFF is a ginger and she is nice friendly and definetly has a soul. ginger kids are also really fun to hang out with
3. | Ginger kids | ||
Ginger is a derogatory racial slur made popular by the cartoon South Park. The term ginger refers to people, particularly children, who have fair skin, red hair, and often freckles. It is most often used by young people of Caucasian decent. The use of this term is growing as the use of the word 'nigga' and other derogatory terms describing African Americans are becoming more socially unacceptable. "Look at this psycho red headed guy snowboarding off a 80 ft. cliff. Just another reason why we should kill all ginger kids."
4. | Ginger Kids | ||
Children with red hair, light skin, and freckles. We've all seen them. On the playground, at the store, walking on the streets. They creep us out, and make us sick to our stomachs. I'm talking, of course, about Ginger kids. Ginger kids are born with a disease which causes very light skin , red hair, and freckles. This disease is called "gingervitis." Kids who have gingervitis cannot be cured. Because their skin is so light, ginger kids must avoid the sun, not unlike... vampires. Some people have red hair, but not light skin and freckles. These people are called "daywalkers." Like vampires, the ginger gene is a curse, and unless we work to rid the earth of that curse, the gingers could envelop our lives in blackness for all time. It is time that we all admit to ourselves that gingers are vile and disgusting. In conclusion, I will leave you with this: if you think that the ginger problem is not a serious one, think again... Ginger kids have no souls.
We must rid the earth of ginger kids. |
5. | Ginger Kids | ||
A collection of individuals that either have Ginger Hair or like ginger haired people. They respect all but do not get respect back. It is these People who will collaborate to rid the world of Gingerism. These Brave souls fight for destiny. Many of them are in fact gingers and they are of the higher ranks in the Ginger Rage Campaign. Look over there the Ginger Kids!
6. | Ginger Kids | ||
A person with pale skin, RED HAIR and freckles also they can only com out at night and will eat u when u sleep
Daywalker is a Red hair person who has no freckles or pale skin and can come out in the day there both also known as RANGAS!!!! Example: Lachlan:Hey dude check out that Ginger Kid Other person:wow hes out at day time he must be a day walker Lachlan:probably...... Lachlan:Hey dude check out those Ginger Kids
Other person:wow hes out at day time he must be a day walker Lachlan:probably...... |
7. | Ginger kids | ||
The most despicable life form on the planet of the earth. They are responsible for all the wars in history and must be eradicated from the face of the earth. They are identifiable by there pale skin, freckles and red hair, they also have no Sole. Es ist Zeit für Rache!
Wir müssen die Gingers ausrotten!! It is time for revenge! We must eradicate the ginger kids! |

I spoke this afternoon at the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco to a room full of curious marketers & site owners. After the session, there was a lot of requests for the slide deck and thus I've shared it below.
Web20 Fishkin Search Landscape
I've also added Stephan Spencer's presentation on technical SEO, keyword research & targeting below:
SEO_ From Soup to Nuts Presentation 1
And, last, but not least, Eric Enge's presentatino on link building from the conference as well
Link Building: The Key to Rankings by Eric Enge
This presentation opportunity comes courtesy of O'Reilly, who published The Art of SEO late last year (somehow, I've neglected to mention it on SEOmoz until now). Big thanks to my co-authors, Eric Enge, Stephan Spencer & Jessie Stricchiola for helping out.
Thanks Rand for sharing.
Surely would have been better to be in person attending at your conference, so to give an audio to the excellent slide deck.
I am quite surprised by the graphic on the 5th slide (Global Share of Searches). Honestly I wasn't aware us European were first in Searches (I was imagining one between USA and Asia/Pacific, at least for the population factor).
I don't know if you can help in this, but it would be interesting to see the trends for the future and if exists a deeper research by countries.
And about the Art of SEO: great book that I bought personally while in NY. It has the not so common quality to make you understand easily something that easy is not that much.
Thanks for sharing this presentation Rand! :-)
It's amazing that Asia Pacific gains ~30% searches of the world. But does it include China's market where Baidu's no.1 SE? Or did ComScore count all LOCAL data of each country's SE?
Best regards,
Agree. Have started to focus on four and five word keywords myself - they are easier to rank for if you are specifically targetting them, plus they seem to convert better than the trophy keywords.
I was surprised to learn that conversion rate grows with search phrase length till the latter reaches 4 words, and then drops off sharply for 5-6 word phrases. Does this make intuitive sense to people?
Also susprised that the PR of any page is non-zero (although it can be tiny): slide 25. What is the evidence for that?
Slide 29. PR hoarding is bad for your site. Could you elaborate please? Do you mean that it's good for SEO to link out to other relevant sites, or is there mother/something else to this claim?
Thanks as always, Rand! (P.S. The Art of SEO is the best SEO book out there, and I've read them all.)
Hey Philip:
Conversion rate - I think this makes fairly good, intuitive sense for keyword phrase length. Up to 4 keywords are getting more specific without becoming super long tail. Once you go to 5+ terms in a search phrase, the commercial intent is often going down (more research queries) and the ability of the engine to actually find (or the www to deliver) the exact answer gets tougher. e.g. "link building analysis tool" vs. "link analysis tool google brazil"
PR - in order to work at all,the PR formula assigns every page on the web with a tiny, innate amount of PR for the initial calculations so that links pass some small amount of juice. This is likely significantly under something like a "PR 1" via the toolbar. You can read more here - http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-pagerank-works-why-the-original-pr-formula-may-be-flawed
PR hoarding is something we don't recommend and neither do the search engines. As a good example, in this WB Friday, the NYTimes SEO, Marshall Simmonds, talked about how their sites benefitted in rankings/traffic by expanding their links out to source material. In my opinion, the engines look at this as part of relevancy and quality content.
Thanks Rand for the infos and for correcting my indication (when I was saying WBF I was meaning exactly the one you link to).
Forgive me all for the bad copy & paste from my fav's carpet :)
I like this particular article it gives me an additional input on the information around the world. thanks a lot and keep giving with posting such information.

Great presentation Rand
Regarding slide 17, the data has changed dramatically since Google Suggest graduated from the Labs and became default.
The number of 4+ word searches are steadily trending upwards.
Here's the latest data from marketing pilgrim:
Very interesting, thanks for this. Curiously, the % of 1-word searches is pretty stable.
I wonder if there is newer conversion rate data that can be correlated with these new stats.
Great presentation as usual.
I have read the book ' The Art Of SEO' and must say that I do not think all the SEO aspects could have been explained in a more simple way.
Looking forward for reading more on social graphs in future.
Are there any plans of conducting any SEO conferences by SeoMoz in India in the near future?
Hey, how did that comment spam above me get through?! Ahem.
As a side note to the focus of this discussion, I would like to say that I really like the design of your book's cover, Rand. So many books written about SEO, and online marketing in general, have unattractive covers. This is a book I would pick off the shelf to look at more closely even if I didn't know what SEO was.
Conversion Rate Optimization... don't blame yourself... I didn't really know this acronym (and many others) when I started to learn SEO :).
Surely in the very next future you will dominate the 'slang'.
Thanks for sharing this Rand. It's nice to see a deck that is a bit more self-explanatory than some of the others... I find that a lot of times I try to check these out and it's just a couple of pictures without the audio- not too terribly helpful.
This one would, obviously, be even more helpful with the audio but it is certainly self-explanatory enough to provide some value.
Thanks :)
Great Presentation, Rand.
Would have loved to actually listen on in the presentation though. The slide covered lots of interesting aspects, especially about Page ranking and Indexing; doing some research into that right now. Will go have a look for the book and read it up.
Hi Rand you just freaked me out. I own the running shoes site you used as on-site optimazation example in slide 44 and was just working on it when I saw your slide :) Anyway, thanks for an excellent presentation and all the valuable information you've provided over the years.
kind regards, bakken
Hey Rand, thanks for making the deck available! This is fantastic. I did have a couple questions, though, if you wouldn't mind addressing:
On slide 29, it states "PageRank is just 1 of 200+ factors for ranking". I was under the impression that since the removal of PR from Webmaster Tools, that Google removed PR as a multiplier from the ranking algorithm (although still used for indexation, obviously). Am I mistaken?
On slide 35, it shows traffic + CTR data as a crowdsourced ranking factor. In http://www.seomoz.org/blog/whiteboard-friday-influence-of-usage-data you mentioned specifically that CTR data isn't taken into account because it's too easy to MTurk. I understand that this is a crowdsourced guess, but my guess is that you wouldn't have shown the slide if there wasn't something more to it. What am I missing?
The Art of SEO is really an awesome book, with a ton of useful information.
I keep using it as a reference when producing content that is related to SEO. The part on linkbuilding and ranking factors are two must-have in my collection.
Thanks to Rand and all of the co-authors for it!
Regarding slides 9 and 10 - "Probably doesn't get 42% CTR"
I think that the AOL release now needs to be taken with a pinch of salt whenever we use it, given the proliferation of local results etc which are now on the 1st pages of the SERPs. Any chances of SEOMoz updating these results in the future? :-p
Interesting to see the online/offline mix illustrated in slide 19. I think there are still far too many people ignoring the influence of the web in offline purchases and decision making.
Very interesting stats.
I would be interested to see the comparion of PPC clicks versus organic clicks specifically for terms that very competitive. I would assume the figure you have is helped a lot by terms that do not have PPCs.
Full Disclosure: I havent viewed the slides yet. I have just read all of the comments and its very late so the slides will have to wait until tomorrow.
However, I did want to share my takeaway from this post so far...
I think I am going to buy "The Art of SEO".
@hedden19 - REALLY?! Here?! Where do we start? There are so many things wrong with this.
SEOmoz doesn't provide consulting, but our friends at Distilled still do. Rock on!

You need to understand that an injury should be completely healed before returning to play.
You risk re-injury and possibly more serious injuries, if you return to the game before completely recovering.
Compared to other sports, soccer requires greater physical conditioning. The games are long, physically demanding and played at a high intensity.
A soccer player's body is subjected to a lot of stress and the result could mean an increase in soccer related injuries. The solution to preventing these injuries is to incorporate an "off-season."
For example:
For example, a soccer player that returns to play too soon following a serious ankle sprain could possibly be setting themselves up for an ACL tear.
If the player jumps up to head the ball and lands incorrectly on the bad ankle, the force the ankle would have absorbed is now shifted to the knee. This extra force to the knee could cause a more severe injury than the initial sprain, such as a ligamentous tear, meniscus tear, patellar dislocation, etc. Athletes must recognize the importance of letting their injuries heal completely before returning to the game. Again, failure to heal can result in more traumatic injuries and a longer time away from the game and the injuries were most likely preventable by taking some time off.
In addition to preventing injuries, recent research has shown that a designated "off season" for soccer players, results in an increased physical performance!

Southend schoolgirl found by police after she vanished last Friday
11:10am Thursday 27th September 2012 in News By Emma Thomas
A troubled 13-year-old girl, who was missing since last week, has been found.
Chloe Jones had not been seen since leaving her home in Ilfracombe Road, Southend at 8.30am on Friday.
The teenager has run away before but has never been gone for more than a day. Her family fear the vulnerable youngster may have fallen in with a bad crowd and could be at risk.
Her worried mother, Lynn Jones, 40, has been scouring the streets for the teenager. She says she has had Facebook messages which she believes were sent by someone else.
She said: "We have been through a difficult patch, as parents do. She has been knocking about with some horrible people and we have had a few arguments.
"She is acting so out of character. I have been putting messages on Facebook to find her.
"I heard something from her on Facebook but she was using words she doesn't use. I don't think it was her. She was coming out with things she has never said to me in her life."
Officers say she was found by police and is now back with her family.
