Is Your Golf Swing Letting You Down on the Golf Course?
Golf Swing Inconsistent?
Learn the Ben Hogan golf swing secret.
Find the fairway in 15 minutes.
How a new twist on the golf stance and setup can straighten out your golf swing.
Tracy Reed here...
You are probably thinking, "Control the Golf Swing?... BULL..." But once I discovered this breakthrough I couldn't think of anything else I could name it!
I'd like to share with you the simple approach to Ben Hogan's golf swing secret that I've used to help over 10,000 golfers world-wide make their golf swing and golf game work consistently... with distance!
First, tell me if I'm close… The most aggravating issue with almost every golfer I talk to is that they never really know for sure where the ball will go when they strike it.
To make matters worse many of the golfers I talk to have taken lessons, sometimes for years and STILL aren't sure how any shot will turn out!
Tracy Reed is a Golf Biomechanic, former Military Interrogator and author of Breaking Golf's Last Barrier who has taught over 10,000 golfers in 51 countries a simple and reliable method to play consistent golf with less practice and less frustration.
I started out like most golfers... Once I was hooked on the game, I tried every bit of golf instruction I could get my hands on to improve and become a consistently better golfer. I also saw very good instructors, but in the end, when I stepped up to hit a shot, I too never knew for sure where the golf ball would go once I hit it.
And I must confess... when I hit a bad shot I would be Sooooo frustrated, I would sometimes throw my club. I'm not proud of it, but I was that mad. I even broke a few clubs because I knew there was something I was missing and all of the instruction I took just didn't solve the real problem!
To make matters worse, I had a bad back injury from my military days that drove me off the golf course after one or two bad golf swings. So I had to find a solution that also worked with minimum practice, because I couldn't spend hours on the range if I wanted to walk to the car when I was done.
I wanted to find a solution for the
following problems:
How to swing the golf club without aggravating my back injury...But still have enough distance to play well.
How to
keep from

until you
get to the
golf game
you really

How to

golf swing, or constantly

golf swing.
How to

course - No

that makes

what is
I wanted to find a solution for the
following problems:
To sort out all of the golf swing complications and allow me to play without hurting myself further, I learned Golf Biomechanics. I also learned that there are so many variables in the human body build from person to person, its staggering!
But after I sorted out all of the golf swing myths and facts, there was still one question that drove me crazy and ultimately led me to create Golf Swing Control. That question is: "How do I know if I'm doing it right when I'm on the golf course?"
Finding THAT answer was the real breakthrough and now, after 20+ years of research and testing, I can confidently say that you no longer have to accept inconsistency in your golf game.
This solution is based on a deep study of Ben Hogan's success and it applies to nearly all swing methods.
After all my study and research, the answer to my problems was so simple I could hardly believe it... but I would not have found it any other way.
And this secret also helped me play without aggravating my lower back... or my ego! I could finally just relax and play great golf.
Best of all, you don't need a new golf swing.(I
Hogan's secret may automatically

adjustments to your golf swing... But
the final product will be YOUR
true golf swing... The golf swing that fits your particular body design.

At first I was just showing local golfers my new discovery with amazing results. I quickly relized that I found something that any golfer could use to build consistency. So when I realized the true power of my discovery, I created Golf Swing Control based on the simple genius of this one secret as a way any golfer can greatly improve his or her golf game without lengthy, costly technical golf lessons.
It's been argued
for years that Hogan's golf swing secret was in his wrists, his right knee action, his left knee action, his rotary motion, the swing plane, etc. Even the Stack and Tilt claims to be Hogan's secret.
Over 25 years, I've been through them all and I can tell you that watching Hogan's golf swing, you'll see every one of those parts. You can try them together or apart and you'll still have the same inconsistency issues when you play on the golf course because that was Hogan's golf swing... Hogan's golf swing was just the tool he used to play golf...
But that isn't why Hogan won so much and it's not why he was famous...
Hogan was famous because he was CONSISTENT... His secret helped him repeat his results day in and day out.
If you apply Hogan's secret of consistency to your golf swing, it
fixes most golf swing mistakes automatically!
Click on the video to see Ben Hogan's golf swing secret and then stick around, because I'll explain just how this secret
also works to cure your slice and adds power and consistency.
One more thing(in case you missed it) - further down I'm
giving you this
the secret
behind this cure for free.
As you can see from the video, Ben Hogan's untold secret was his mastery of balance... I know...BORING! So, why is Balance more important for Golf than other sports?
You have to look at the DIFFERENCE between Balance in Golf and Balance in every other sport...
Over 25 years, I've seen just about every swing flaw you can imagine, but in every case,
if you pay attention to the details of Hogan's balance secret each flaw can be corrected SO IT DOESN'T COME BACK to haunt you every season.
Whenever I show ANY golfer Hogan's secret and they start using it in their golf game, their own golf swing slowly adapts to fit their body and becomes more efficient. Golfers who were losing golf balls on the front 9, are counting fairways and using only one golf ball for the back 9.
And that's just the start of what Hogan' secret and Golf Swing Control does for your golf game...

And that's just the start of what Hogan' secret and Golf Swing Control does for your golf game...
Even the best golf academies in the country somehow overlook this crucial element of the golf swing.
I recently walked 9 holes with a college recruit who spent the last 5 years at a big name golf academy and I must say, his golf swing was as good as it gets. The problem was that he still missed crucial shots. When I asked him what he learned about balance, he said he was sure he didn't have a balance problem. When I pressed the question, he couldn't tell me much about balance. Yet, every shot he missed, I predicted to my co-coach the miss AND where the ball would go before the ball was struck... And I was only watching the golfer's balance.
Once I showed this golfer how simple balance was to achieve before the shot, he didn't miss any more shots. It took 5 minutes on the golf course to fix this golfer's ONLY issue which he had no idea about after YEARS going to the same golf swing acadamy...
How does having Hogan's secret cure a slice and add power and consistency to your golf game??
Let's start with the slice...
First, why do you slice?
A slice is caused by hitting the golf ball with a club face that is traveling out to in, or from outside the target line to inside the target line. If the ball starts out on target, it means the face was square to the target and if the ball starts right, it means the face was open.
That's the technical stuff, which doesn't mean much until you can change it, so let me try to simplify and get to the core issue that you CAN FIX...
Remember the law of dynamic balance from the video? Well, for slicers, the reason they slice is that during the downswing, the upper body starts the downswing before the lower body... The lower body should start first, but most slicers have NO CHOICE... Because they usually start their swing out of balance and once the body starts moving during the backswing, the brain locks up the lower body for fear that you will lose balance. Without the proper body sequence, you have no choice but to swing over the top.
What amazes me every time I show a slicer Hogan's secret to correct their stance is watching their body automatically start correcting the golf swing and club path without any thought or effort by the golfer.
After years of doing only this to start during lessons, I can assure you, you'll be amazed when you start paying better attention to the details of this simple secret.
Further down, you'll have the opportunity to sign up to get free lessons that will show you how to find that perfect stance every time.

How about power?
A great amount of power for the golf swing comes from the proper coil and release of the core and leg muscles. If you are out of balance, the legs can't move when they should, so they aren't in a position to build power and can't contribute their part to the power picture.
Hogan's secret allows your leg muscles to coil and release power at the proper time during the golf swing.

Hogan's secret allows your leg muscles to coil and release power at the proper time during the golf swing.
And Consistency?
Well, there are an infinite number of out of balance ways to make your golf swing... But there is only one swing path your body moves in when you are moving in balance. When you start and move in dynamic balance, the body always moves on that path. Hogan's secret shows you how to take advantage of this simple law of nature to create absolute consistency in your golf game.

I have proven all of this with 1000's of golfers around the globe AND this works when applied to just about every swing method.

I tried to get out of the bet as I'm working on my game...
I don't even know where to start. I sent off for your manual Monday night the 9th, got home Thursday from work and there it was. I started to read it when I went to bed that night and by midnight, I was out in the front yard swinging the club. Your setup routine really got a grip of me from the start.
I have been playing golf for a long while and the best I have shot is an 88 from the championship tees. My norm is about 90 - 93. Well, I got a phone call this morning at 8am (Sunday 15th) from one of the guys I play with. He said, "I have 2 tee times at 9:30 do you want to play?"
Well sure I did. I got to the course and the other guys are all low handicaps. They all asked what the bet was as we went to the first tee, and as norm its $20 a man winner takes all. I tried to get out of the bet as I'm working on my game, but all I got was a whole lot of boos, so I said ok, I'm in.
Well, from the first tee I never looked back. Your setup routine, along with the dynamic balance put me in a whole new zone. I was hitting my driver 260+ and picking the line I wanted every time. I hit one drive into the green side bunker, 337 yards, (a slight pull left) but the thing that stands out the most for my game was the visualization.
It put the ball where I wanted it all day long. I was playing off a 19 handicap and one of the guys with me was playing off 7. Well, I shot a 78, and so did he. I creamed them all....no one else came close.
Jamie, the 7 handicap asked me at the end, "How did you turn it around like that! You really gave me a game there!"
I said its only going to get better from here, and the best thing of all is.....I'm only on page 56 of the manual and I still have the ball I started with on the first tee!
Thanks for letting me enjoy my game again,
John McGeary,

He wasn't sure, so he just tried the setup routine...
......I hit balls today and used the setup technique on the website.
All I can say is WOW!
I was hitting the ball consistently on the sweet spot and hitting really nice golf shots. I used some Titleist club fitting stickers my club has and that is how I was noticing how pure I was striking the ball. I could also feel when it wasn't right and when a shot didn't go where I had intended, I could feel why.
Just on that alone I offer my thanks.

The secret of the transition from the backswing to the downswing... In a single paragraph...
When 6 Top instructors could not answer it in person... And it worked!
...I have attended Mclean in NYC, Leadbetter in South Carolina, Gravity Golf in Florida, Golf Tek in Atlanta and Pennick in Austin and gone to that golf camp in Tampa that teaches you on their course for not one, but two weeks.
I have read Pennick, Hogan, Mclean, Leadbetter, Woods, and Faldo's books. I have watched the Golf Channel religiously. I subscribe to both Golf Mag and Golf Digest.
The point I am making is that I searched the entire golf instruction industry for the answer to the question that you gave me in a paragraph.
Until you, no one else could give me the simple movement solution you did and I obviously could not "find" it on my own....
You made something that has eluded me, and any instructor who has ever evaluated me, come together in an instant.
Maybe I was on the verge of a "breakthrough", but it wouldn't have happened without your insight.

...during tournaments I could never break 80...
I'm 15 years old and golf every single day. Occasionally I would fire some rounds in the low 70s, but during tournaments I could never break 80.
I first read your information about a week ago and the first day I tried your setup routine. I was hitting the ball awesome, consistently.
From that day I had 4 days to prepare for my tournament. All 4 days of practice I shot in the mid to low 70s. Then the real test came. The first day of the tournament I played great. I hit 13 greens, missed only 2 fairways, and was averaging about 270 per drive. My driving distance went up about 50 yards and I hit 8 more greens than my average. I shot a 77 missing 4 birdies inside ten feet, 3 3-putts, and 3 missed 3-footers. I could have easily shot under par.
The second day I putted a little better and struck the ball about the same. I shot a 74 missing 3 3-footers and won my tournament by 7 strokes. I had finally broke 80 in a tournament.
Thanks for helping me win a trophy and a $320 gift certificate to the pro shop!

At first I said no, but he persisted...
Hello Tracy,
I was wowed today.
I was practicing at my local driving range and one of my teachers (this guy gave me one 30 minutes lesson once) was going to the course with another guy. It's a 9 holes course, all Par 3. Anyway, I was just warming up and he turned to me and said, "Jo, come play with us." I had just arrived and made probably less then 10 warm up shots with my 8 iron. At first I said no, but he persisted so I went off with them.
Thank you so much for these routines. I didn't slice a single shot today.
I was wowed at a 145 meters PAR 3 hole, when I hit my 6 Iron against a strong wind and the ball landed on the green and stopped immediately, digging a small hole in it. I scored 3 strokes on that hole and my teacher scored 4. He looked at me and said, "You're handicap 28 my a$$!".
This was already the best hole of my short golf life. You cannot imagine the wind! I finished an amazing +7, my teacher +2, and the other guy, handicap 15 finished +12!
Your manual is my bible! Thank you so much for this REALLY impressive and valuable info.
Best regards,
Joao Vaz,
Is Golf Instruction Messing Up Your Game?
I wanted to pass on a GREAT story that happened to me today at the range.
I was going through my routine, hitting some good shots, and the person next to me was receiving an hour of instruction. He wasn't getting anywhere, and to be real honest the instruction wasn't very good.
Well, when I'd glance over and watch this guy swing I could SEE his right foot rolling over and his right knee straightening and going to the right and then I could SEE his weight dramatically shift to outside his left foot and his left knee would swing out.
His instructor outfitted him with some weird contraption and told him to swing it back because, "he had to build muscle memory." When he did this, you could still SEE his balance way off.
Basically, the instructor was saying EVERYTHING that you don't! It was sadly comical. The instruction was going nowhere.
You could tell the poor sap was frustrated (I know I've been there).
So his instruction finishes and he decides he's going to hit another bucket to work on it all . He turns to me and says, "I see you hit the ball pretty well, do you notice anything?" (I promise this story is real) I say, suppressing laughter because a mere four days ago I was in the same boat as this guy, "Why don't you try this......."
To nobody's surprise but this guy's, he sends a beautiful 8-iron shot high in the air and straight. I then proceeded to tell him my story about how your's is the greatest golf instruction I've ever received and 4 days ago my shots were uglier than his and I gave him the web site address. Now he's hitting some good looking golf shots.
Now here's the kicker...he pulls out his wallet and offers ME $70 and says, "I just paid that bastard in there $70 and he didn't do a damn thing so I might as well pay it to somebody that helped!" I politely refused and told him to visit your site.
If going from a hack to a "golf instructor" in 4-days isn't the best testimony to your instruction, then I don't know what is!!!
Thanks again!

Hi Tracy,
I am a golfer playing off a 3 handicap who plays on average once every 5 weeks, so it sometimes difficult to maintain the handicap. However, I regularly get comments from my fellow peers asking how I maintain a good strike/control whilst playing minimal golf.
I have read many books over the years, and all have been of benefit, but I think the way you have explained the effectiveness of the swing is simple and easy to digest.
I now enjoy my golf more than ever, having developed a mental attitude that used to come as second nature when I was playing a lot of amateur golf in my younger days.
The benefits have been forthcoming, winning back to back club championships (at my local course) and the handicap match play title in the same year.
I used to play golf with Phil Price at junior level (European PGA pro)back in the 80's and almost feel that I could now give him a run for his money!

Maybe you don't need any more instruction...
Hi Tracy,
I just wanted to start off by saying that I am progressing very nicely. I am making shots like never before. I went from 220-250 off of the tee to 270-290 almost religiously. I cracked one 329 the other day as well (although it was down hill). My iron play has dramatically changed as well; on target and a lot longer.
I thought I was a good player before this but now I realize there is much more out there.
Thank you,

Too old to improve your golf game?
Hi Tracy,
The Golf Swing Control manual has been a revelation to my golf game. I am a 15.8 index but not for long. I am hitting the ball off the tee 50 yards further than I ever have in my life and my irons are now 10-15 yards longer.
The funny part is that I am 63 and playing the longest golf of my life.
I am now hitting my drives 280+ and in the fairway. My length is now allowing me to hit 9s and PWs rather than 5 or 6s.
Well that is it from Northern Illinois. The weather is finally getting warm after a miserable winter and it is time to lower my index to single digits.
Thanks for connecting to my brain,

"Dropped from an 18 handicap, struggling to catch a par now and then... down to scratch golf."
At the end of the golf season last fall, shooting sub par was as easy as walking down the street to get a beer (this IS Milwaukee).
I played no less than 5 rounds a week for three weeks right before it turned cold (a guy has to have his priorities in order). Each time I played during that streak, I was below par by anywhere from two to three strokes (depending on the course). I didn't lose a single golf ball for the entire run.
My shot was so smooth and so effortless that I tried hitting over a water obstacle to shorten a long par 5 one day. That very same hole previously cost me three golf balls and six strokes over three separate rounds this past spring. The tee shot for that hole has to be no less than 320 yards (a conservative estimate). There's not many golfers that haven't tried and failed to overcome the water on that hole. I can still feel the shot because it was like nothing I've ever felt before. An easy as pie swing that was as smooth as glass. When the ball left I thought I could hear it sizzle. When it landed and finished its roll out, I was WAY out past the water sitting in the fairway about 60 yards from the green looking at an eagle approach (yes sir, I eagled THAT hole).
It gets better...the last round I played before everything closed down for the winter was up at Fire Ridge (North of Milwaukee). I played in the short grass the entire round. Killed another eagle and put down five birdies. Best of all, no bogey holes for the entire round (that's seven under par). The longest putt I had was a 30 footer, uphill, against the grain on 15 and I drained it like a sink.
My score at the end of the round was 65. That 18 hole score was better than my all time best 66, 22 years ago and this was a tougher course.
I know that you get letters all the time telling you how much of an improvement your golf philosophy makes in someone's game. Just wanted you to know that what you have taken the time to share with us hacks out here works as advertised.
Your philosophy works like nothing else I've ever tried or read about and I am just glad you took the time to share it with the rest of us. That is what's important in all this.
Looking forward to hot weather, fast greens,

I'm not asking you to abandon traditional instruction...
I put my reputation on the line Saturday and decided that the first thing that I would address with each pupil at the clinic was their balance throughout the swing.
Normally, the first thing I address is their grip, then stance, then posture, etc...
I must admit that they got results quicker using the dynamic balance approach than I get normally.
And the magnitude of the improvement was such that they were amazed at their shot consistency.
While the other fundamentals are still very important to the golf swing, and I will never abandon them. I will be using your techniques with all my students from now on.
Thank you,

13+ years chasing a golf swing...
Hi Tracy,
After 13+ years of chasing a golf swing, for the first time I feel like I know what to look for and feel in my golf swing.
Your information makes sense, your drills are helpful, and the way you hammer home the same consistent message is much appreciated. What is interesting is my focus is better and centered on the right thing and my practices are more productive...
I feel like a student studying hard and learning about something that excites me.
Thanks for the direction and support.

John Butcher shot an opening round 65 to win his Club Championship just 2 weeks after starting Golf Swing Control.....
Hi Tracy,
I am a delighted customer....
I spent more time with my setup routine and visualization techniques than anything else. But what you managed to teach me in the course of a few days over the Internet is simply amazing!
I couldn't quite figure out why I wasn't getting that "spank the back of the ball" feeling with my driver and that little draw that comes from a well-struck inside-out swing. Well, it's back. And if I lose it on the course, I can make and feel the adjustments to get back on track.
Thanks for everything. Best,

Bill won The Kentucky State Seniors his first time out.....
What can I say? When I started your program, I was inconsistent to say the least but had a goal to reach 3 handicap from a 5. My last 6 scores are 72 from the tips (7000 yard course), 72, 74 with a triple bogey (dumb mental mistake), 69 and 70.
My index is now 2.7 and I have more confidence that I am going down even more, possibly scratch. Every aspect from driving, iron play, chipping, putting and bunker play has improved immeasurably.
This is getting fun again and I am 57 years old. I have never driven the ball as far as I am now. I am 5'8" and 155 lbs and out-drive my playing competitors who are much, much bigger than me. They can't believe what they see but are getting use to it.
Thanks so much for your efforts as I am having the ball of my life.

Hi Tracy,
Just a quick update on where my game is.
For the past 10 weeks, I am getting much more consistent and am regularly playing to my handicap of 13. However the last 2 rounds have been very special.
I shot 7 over 79 gross on a course I never played before. This included two bad double bogeys on 9 and 18. Then last Sunday, I shot 36 points for 15 holes in the club winter competition, with no score on the 1st hole. I played 2 to 11 in 2 under par!
Thanks for all the help. I can't wait for the new season to start next March.
John O'Shea
Roy dropped 11 strokes after a 6 year layoff from golf.....
Great Book. The 1st time I tried it, I shot 86 which was 11-12 strokes under what I've been shooting recently since I re-started playing after laying off 6 yrs.....Then a 90 and then only 7 over on 9 holes.
What I find SO GREAT is that the power generated is unbelievable and again like you said... after the magic move... the swing is over so quickly with astonishing results and WITH NO EFFORT AT ALL. I cannot believe how easily I am hitting all my clubs and with EFFORTLESS POWER.
No more hitting buckets of balls to keep my swing...just those swing exercises you recommend and a couple times at the range. That is the reason I am happy. I don't have to struggle with this game and I can still be a decent player without having to play so often.

...After receiving your Golf Swing Control Course, I did as you advised and read through it without doing the drills. Since reading it I have played two rounds on two of the most difficult par three courses where I live. One course is long by design and the other, due to the wind Gods.
Thanks to the Golf Swing Control Course I shot a 32 and a 33, (5 and 6 over par) concentrating on nothing but balance. My pitching and chipping have improved dramatically, but more impressive to me is how confident I feel standing over a shot.
What my score does not indicate is the fact that I am legally blind and have played golf for only a year.
I play with a coach who lines me up on the tee and advises me on wind, hole placement and any other matters of importance. She lines up my putts after I have walked them for distance. I mention this because my coach was not available for the two rounds I spoke of earlier. I played with two neighbors who have been golfing for three months and neither had ever helped me play.
But, the fact is without your Course I would never have had the confidence to feel comfortable playing without my golf coach.
Thank you

I have received your Golf Swing Control Course and it is great!
It is the perfect learning tool.
You have the wonderful ability as an author to take words and transform them into pictures in the mind for easy learning. And of course, make it simple to transform into a perfect golf swing. It's truly exciting. I couldn't put it down. It is a most valuable tool for finally doing it the right way on the golf course and being able to get the true feel of how it should be done.
Thank you Tracy for finally putting it all into a form that can be learned.

...fighting years of poor swing habits...
...I've gone through the book and I like it. I have at least a half dozen swing books, and I subscribe to a couple of golf magazines. The basic full swing as described in these books is correct, but each author uses his own words to give the reader an image of what point he is trying to teach.
I find that your description is the best and most detailed that I have seen. It fills in a lot of gaps that the other books skip over. Great job.
As for my game, I am fighting years of poor swing habits and as I seek to rebuild my swing, I am inconsistent. When I do execute the swing the way I am trying to, it feels great and my goal is to capture that feeling.
Your book has given me renewed inspiration to keep at it.

I used to struggle with the game because I really did not understand the mechanics...
...I worked with your book from Sept to early October. (It's getting too cold to play outside now). I used to struggle with the game because I really did not understand the mechanics of the swing.
Not only do I understand the mechanics now, but you have also highlighted all the subtle points of a golf swing that really make the mechanics work.
I truly believe you have captured this complex swing in its simplest steps.
I am going to work through the winter on my swing so I may have some questions but so far I am still trying to integrate your concepts into the swing. The scores are improving but the best part is that I am not so frustrated by the game.
It is a wonderful book and I hope you have much success with it.

I started reading your book and could not put it down for hours. You are the first person I have taken lessons from that has a complete understanding of the golf swing and how to play the game.
I have a 13 handicap and shot 5 over par today on a very difficult golf course. I kept one thought in mind, balance, balance, balance!! I hit the ball so pure, straight, and long.
I still have a minor problem moving off the ball on the backswing but I am sure your book will answer that question.
Thanks so much.

But will the results last?
Last winter I attended a very well known golf school for 5 days. The results were amazing, but they seemed to disappear once I left the school.
Your program has been a godsend. I cannot tell you how much it has helped me and how quickly it helped. The results are repeatable and consistent.
I have been so impressed with your program that I have suggested it to many friends. I hope that they get as much benefit as I did.
Keep up the good work.

So is it really worth it?......
I have read the books of every major instructor in the country. I have also taken lessons from some of the top teachers notably Harmon and Ballard. As a solid 7 handicap, using your book finally helped me break through.
I have had your book 2 days and I already have grasped it and can do it.
It came faster for me because some of the stuff is what Jimmy Ballard showed me, which is great stuff. The problem I had with Jimmy was that I could hit it straight but not long. Now I know why.....
I went to the driving range and did what you said and the ball exploded off the club face. I have many friends on the PGA tour and have played rounds with many of them. So I know what "tour" shots look like. I personally have hit many great shots, but your method has me knocking the fire out of the ball every single time. My old swing focused on guiding the hands to the right position at impact. With your method the golf ball is gone so fast I could not do that if I tried.
I just wanted to say thank you and I will be telling my friends about your book.
Thank you for everything.

I consider myself a complete golf novice...
Your information is amazing! It's like magic!
I consider myself a complete golf novice. I started like you. Somebody suggested I should try it. I did and I was hooked. I took 3 golf lessons (most of the information I have already forgotten) I have played a few times on some 9 hole golf courses and 1 time on a municipal golf course, which was more frustrating than I want to admit; but still had fun. For the most part I was happy if I just hit the golf ball at all.
I have read your first 4 chapters and have applied them to my golf swing and without fail I hit the golf ball dead on every time...
Thank you.

He has "It" in just 2 weeks......
I just wanted to update you on my progress. I ordered the manual and before it could come I had the 3 worst rounds of my career. I was playing 5-6 times a week and decided to give it a rest. I took 2 weeks off and read the entire manual twice just to make sure I didn't miss anything. I started working with the drills and re-reading the parts I felt were most important.
So after my 2-week break I came back on fire! I shot 68, 72, and 73 last weekend.
My handicap has dropped from a 7 to a 4 in under 2 weeks.
I missed the course record by 1 stroke, due to a missed eagle that came up less than an inch short.
I hit 94% greens and 98% fairways on my last round. I have also lost the fade that has been there for nearly 18 years.
So far the only downside is I have discovered that I need to get my clubs fitted again. I plan on taking (and passing) the PGA Playing Ability Test in the fall of 2006.

Scott still isn't sure how I knew.....
One word... Wow! That is pretty darn impressive. You are right on the money with the setup.....
But what really blows my mind is that you knew I was straightening up as I looked at the target. I thought you were nuts until I teed it up in my living room and went through the routine without thinking about it. Sure enough, knee bend while stepping up to the ball, and adjusting my height as I looked down the hall. Can't wait to give it a swing outside.

Hi Tracy!
I started playing golf when I was 13. I am now 57. I've played on and off the whole time (mostly off during college and the first 15 or so years after that), but without much instruction. In the last few years I started paying close attention to watching the pros to improve my swing. The first thing I noticed was their feet. For the vast majority, except during the follow-thru, they didn't move as mine were! About 3 years ago I had an instructor put a small piece of wood under my right arch (I'm a right-hander) and told me to keep the pressure on that piece of wood because my right foot was rolling out during my backswing. That's when I started to realize the importance of keeping the weight on the arches. But...I wasn't instructed as to why and therefore didn't realize the huge important part that balance played in the entire swing.
Fast forward. I happened upon your course on the Net and watched your critique of Sergio Garcia's swing and his imbalance that resulted in a two-plane swing that he had to correct on his downswing. My mind lit up when I got to your website and listened to the free clips. I had already bought into the theory of a good swing coming from the ground up, but didn't know exactly why or how to visualize the components into an entire swing without consciously thinking of each part.
I ordered your course a few weeks ago and did exactly as you suggested. Completely read through all 215 pages before watching the DVD's. What I didn't expect was how completely I understood what you were talking about and how it all made such good sense. There is no mystery, just body mechanics and pure facts. I began to practice the setup, paying attention to my balance, arches, pre-setting the right hip, and the backswing. Before the course, I dreaded the take-away because I couldn't seem to ever get a coordinated feeling when starting the move. BUT, by pre-setting the right hip by slightly leaning to the right, the take-away immediately felt coordinated and "right" by simply turning the chest. In addition, being aware of the connection factor of your arms and chest makes the backswing nearly as automatic as the downswing when you simply turn your chest to start the backswing.
You mentioned your back problems in your blog. I had been a runner since 1984. Since that time, I've had 8 surgeries. Four knee surgeries (torn medial meniscus), one shoulder surgery (2 bones were not clearing and they were shaved back), a ruptured plantar fascia in my right foot (from 21 years of running), and two back surgeries. The plantar fascia surgery required 6 weeks on 2 crutches without ever allowing the right foot to touch the ground. In my first back surgery in 2005 the disc between L4 and L5 was trimmed. And to round out my back problems, a major back surgery in February of 2007 where the discs between L4-L5 and L5-S1 ruptured and I had to have a double fusion of the vertebrae with bone from my right hip. I now have 2 titanium rods and 6 screws still in my back. I kept breaking and they kept fixing me. I gave up the impact of running after the first back surgery in 2005 and took up swimming and limited weight lifting to continue strengthening my upper body and muscles surrounding my lower back.
With all those surgeries you would think I couldn't even swing a club. But through rehab, swimming and strength training I've kept in the game. My scores were consistently in the lower 80's. I could never reach the 70's. After finishing your course, with review and practice at home, my first three rounds resulted in scores of 78, 75 and 76. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the amount of work you have put into this and how easy it is to grasp and understand.
Many golfers have long since given up on improving their game and have resigned themselves to higher scores and frustrating rounds. I know because I have played with them and I'm sure you have as well. Your course isn't based on just your personal experience in the game, but rather with researched facts on how you can achieve a desired goal by understanding how the human body responds mentally and physically to visualized movements based on balance and proper mechanics. This is what sets your course apart from all the rest. Its not a compilation of "tricks and tips". Its a complete understanding of how and why our bodies and minds work as they do. Its the basis for understanding why and with understanding, you don't need a "trick" to improve, just practice doing what your body is built to accomplish by working in harmony with gravity and balance. Above all, it makes perfect sense.
Thank you.

Let's face it: There are literally dozens of possible distribution platforms available to self-publish games, with new platforms popping up every month. Unfortunately, this does not always equate to more profit for developers. Porting to multiple platforms can cause serious headaches if not done properly, done too late in the development process, or done without careful consideration; and the overhead and costs associated with this cannot be overstated. Owlchemy Labs discusses its business and technical considerations for building and distributing games with multi-platform in mind, including leveraging Unity, how to evaluate new platforms, production challenges with multiple simultaneous SKUs, mitigating new platform risk, building a team with multiplatform in mind, how multi-platform affects cash flow, how press plays a part in the process, and the possible negative side effects of getting too deep into cross-platform development.
Attendees will walk away with a better understanding of cross-platform game development and learn through many direct examples how multi-platform development can be a boon for your company, as well as pose some unexpected headaches if not properly accounted for ahead of time.

Merrill Lynch recruited a team from Morgan Stanley that managed $1.2 billion in client assets.
The nine-person team, led by Bruce Munster, generated $5.8 million in annual revenue while at Morgan. They join Merrill's elite Private Banking & Investment Group in Century City, Calif., where they report to Michael Rogers, managing director.
A top producer, Munster was recently featured as No. 7 in On Wall Street's annual ranking of the Top 40 Advisors Under 40.
The move represents Merrill's biggest grab of the year so far. Last year, the firm recruited two advisors who collectively managed $3 billion in assets. Advisors Howard Rowen and Halsey Smith, who formed a team after leaving UBS and Deutsche Bank respectively, also joined Merrill's Private Banking & Investment Group in April last year.
A notable grab at the start of the year augurs well for Merrill's recruiting efforts, says Mickey Wasserman, head of recruiting firm Michael Wasserman & Associates.
"Merrill is being very aggressive. They need to recruit and to pick up the numbers. A team like this is evidence of Merrill's ability to get large teams and you're going to see more to come," he says.
Wasserman says the firm is offering enticing recruiting packages and also has strong product and technology capabilities, both of which may appeal to prospective recruits.
"They've recruited large teams in the past, but for this year this is the gateway team. You're going to see more teams coming over to Merrill as the year progresses," says Wasserman.
In an interview for the Top 40 Under 40 list, Munster told On Wall Street that his team served wealthy families and professionals who worked in industries such as aerospace, real estate and entertainment. One client is a Hollywood movie star.
"It's very much a reflection of Southern California," Munster said.
He said that the nearly all of the clients were self-made. "It's this interesting collection of Horatio Alger stories, which really makes it amazing to go to work every day," he said.
Of his recent move, Munster said in a statement that he switched firms because of the capabilities offered by Merrill Lynch and Bank of America.
"Bank of America can be a party to any sized deal -- whether a client needs corporate finance, investment banking or M&A counsel," he said.
Munster started his career in 1999 with Paine Webber, which was acquired by UBS, according to FINRA records. He moved to Morgan Stanley in 2007.
Munster's fellow team members also include his partners John Paffendorf, senior vice president, and David Freeman, vice president.
Paffendorf began his advisory career in 2001 at Merrill Lynch. He moved to UBS in 2003, and then to Morgan Stanley in 2007. Freeman, who joined UBS in 2006, also made the move to Morgan in the same year.
Paffendorf is the third generation of his family to work in the business, according to a Merrill spokeswoman. His father, John Gregory Paffendorf Sr., is an advisor at UBS, according to FINRA records. The senior Paffendorf worked at Merrill Lynch from 1989 to 2011.

No. 22 MIT upsets No. 5 WPI to capture share of NEWMAC regular-season title
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- No. 22 MIT claimed at least a share of the regular-season New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference title with a 69-60 upset of No. 5 WPI.
Sophomore Justin Pedley came off the bench to hit 6 of 8 3-point attempts and led the Engineers with a career-high 20 points. Sophomore Marco Coppola led all scorers with 22 points for WPI.
Defense was a big aspect of the game early on as both teams combined to shoot less than 40 percent from the field. WPI (21-2, 9-2 NEWMAC) had an early 6-2 advantage after a jumper by junior Ryan Kolb at the 16:22 mark. Two minutes later, a 3-pointer by senior Mitchell Kates gave MIT its first lead of the night at 7-6. Three-point shooting proved to be a crucial factor as MIT hit on 9 of 17 attempts, while WPI struggled with its long-range shooting, hitting just 3 of 21 attempts.
MIT twice pushed its advantage to six points, holding a 16-10 lead after a Kates layup at the 6:04 mark. WPI came back with six consecutive points to tie things up on a layup by Coppola. MIT responded with a 8-2 run to end the half, getting 3-pointers from Pedley and senior James Burke to take a 27-21 lead at the half.
During the first five minutes of the second half, MIT slowly built a 10-point advantage, going up 40-30 following a Pedley 3-pointer. MIT still led by 10 with 14:08 left when WPI saw Kolb go on a personal 5-0 run that made it 43-38 with 12:46 to go. MIT pushed its lead back to 10, again on a Pedley 3-pointer, midway through the final 20 minutes. WPI made little headway at that point and MIT moved out to its biggest lead of the game at 60-46 on a bucket by Kates with six minutes left.
With a pair of starters on the bench with four fouls, MIT saw WPI slowly inch its way back into the game during the next five minutes. Coppola and Kolb led the charge with six points apiece, guiding the Engineers on a 14-5 run. Coppola finished the run with a layup that brought WPI back to within five at 65-60 with a minute left.
Pressing, WPI picked up a steal by Kolb on the next MIT possession, but a 3-pointer by freshman Zach Karalis was off the mark. WPI missed its final two shot attempts as well, and a pair of free throws by Pedley and Kates iced the win for MIT.
Kates finished with 16 points and nine assists as MIT extended its season-best win streak to seven games. Senior Will Tashman contributed 13 points and 10 rebounds for MIT, which shot 53.5 percent for the game. Kolb led WPI in rebounding with eight.

Sorry it's been awhile since my last post, you see, I've been on vacation. It's this wonderful time where I like to unplug from the internet world and play in in the real one. It was wonderful, thank you for asking! I went up to Virginia to visit some friends and further fell in love with the Hampton Roads area. I also drank a lot, ate a lot and had lots of fun. However, that is not the point of this entry today.
Netflix is ruining my life. Seriously. I used to be a productive person. I used to do crafts, write, read, leave my house on my days off...all great things. Then, I got Netflix.
It began simple enough, I watched Season 1 of Wilfred, it didn't take long since it's only a 30 minute show. Only 20 something without commercials.
Then I didn't watch for awhile, then I got hooked on Revenge and Scandal. I couldn't stop watching. MUST SEE ALL EPISODES OF EVERYTHING!
Life began to revolve around how many episodes I could get in a night. I had to know what happened next. To the point that I began to lose interest in shows that had the audacity to make me wait an entire week for an episode. How dare they! Orange is the New Black would never do that to me.
When I finished Bomb Girls, I said I was done for awhile. I was going to take a break. I needed to take a break. But I'm weak. Last night I was bored, there was nothing on TV...instead of opening a book like I should have done, I grabbed my Wii remote, opened up Netflix and dove into the first 6 episodes of The Fosters.
I just couldn't help it. I'm ashamed. I have no control.
I'm Tonyne and I'm a Netflix addict. While I'm ashamed of my addiction to binge watching TV dramas I feel as if I have learned some useful things. I am fully confident that my schnauzers understand me in ways no one else does, that in jail I could not only survive but actually do well making toiletries for other inmates and when I got out I could go live in the Hamptons and revenge something with epic flair. I could then spin myself out of trouble while wearing fantastic clothes and if that didn't work I could build a bomb to blow up everyone that didn't go along with my carefully crated spin. Then, I could live happily ever after with my lesbian wife that I probably meet during my stint in prison while raising our 12 foster children.
So, what are you watching these days? What should I place next in my Netflix List?

Hey aasoror,
Was wondering if you could update your wiki to include the Android and Playbook app found here. I have been using for the past few days and it works pretty well. Definitely a time saver.
Do you know were the "Black Box" image comes from while viewing some RSS, and Jukebox feeds? I think it is part of the threePartsView mediaDisplay function.
The "box" is in the upper-right corner. Sometimes (some RSS Feeds) it has a logo of a "Folder" in it.
What controls this image? Where is it located, what is it's name? What is the element name and attributes?
I asked snappy and he thought you might know.
Hi! How are you.
I read your post about unbrick PBO to try fix my brick PBO. However, my PBO had different message when I used TTL cable. There is only "?Hello World!" displayed, no any other prompt. Is there way to fix it? Thank you so much.

'This validates the work that each member of our staff does. They want to make the guest experience better today than yesterday. I thank them for their positive attitudes, and am grateful to our visitors who think so highly of us.' - owner Ed Weibrecht
(PRWEB) October 21, 2013
It's the survey that means the most: readers who rank a property by the experiences they have had at that hotel.
Such is the nature of the Conde Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Awards, and for the second consecutive year, those discerning guests have placed Mirror Lake Inn Resort and Spa in Lake Placid, N.Y. at the top of the list in the Northeast.
In its rating of the 20 best properties in the region, the AAA-rated Four Diamond resort, and accompanying Four Diamond dining establishment, The View Restaurant, on the shores of Mirror Lake in Lake Placid, received the highest honors.
The magazine's Readers' Choice Rating scored the Mirror Lake Inn at 93.8 out of 100 points. This number one listing will be found in Conde Nast Traveler's Best in the World issue, soon to appear on newsstands.
"When guests tell you that you are the best at what you do, they are recognizing the level of commitment and respect that our employees have for them," said Mirror Lake Inn owner Ed Weibrecht. "This honor validates the work that each member of our staff does. They want to make the guest experience better today than yesterday. I thank them for their positive attitudes, and am grateful to our visitors who think so highly of us."
One year ago, Mirror Lake Inn was also named Conde Nast's top ski hotel in the Northeast and was included in the publication's 2013 Gold List.
"As years go by guests at Mirror Lake Inn become family, not only to Ed and me, but our staff as well," stated owner Lisa Weibrecht, Ed's wife. "Their experience is created by our wonderful employees that make sure each visitor has the best experience possible."
Mirror Lake Inn Resort and Spa's overall reader rating of 93.8 placed it ahead of such iconic Northeastern properties as the Stowe Mountain Lodge and Stoweflake Mountain Resort and Spa, both in Vermont; The Sagamore in Lake George, N.Y.; and the Omni Mount Washington Resort in N.H.

The Artsy Guide to Moving Image Istanbul
Artsy Editorial
Empire #2, 2012 comes from Lê's Remnants, Ruins, Civilization, and Empire series. Known for his techniue of weaving photographic images together, Lê continues in this tradition for this series as he investigates two highly intelligent cultures of the past: one of ancient Sumer, the other 12th century Cambodia. In his travels to Angkor Wat, Lê photographed the relics of once majestic temples. In this work, he focuses on the rubble that now exists, stacking several images together one on top of the another like rocks. Interwoven with the temple imagery are images of Cambodian citizens who were killed by the Khmer Rouge.

Waterfowl are and most likely always will be my favorite birds. Yes chickens are cool, yes turkeys have some merit, and guinea fowl and peafowl are always fun to watch. But waterfowl, specifically Geese (and some Ducks) are my absolute favorites. They were among the first fowl I bought with my own money as a child and they will always have a place on my farm.
Duke (my Pekin drake) and co. Saying "FEED ME WOMAN!"
My Pekin duck is quite happy to supply me with eggs, so four weeks ago I set Duchess's first clutch in my incubator. There were six, two of which turned out to be infertile and one that died approximately 3-4 days before hatch. The other three hatched the day before Easter. They're about the tiniest ducklings you can imagine. Most ducks are bought at about a week old and are quite a bit larger by then.
Teeny Tiny Duckies
Waterfowl, despite a stigma of being bad tempered, can be great pets and wonderful watchdogs. One thing you don't find enough when people raise waterfowl is socialization. I've noticed a trend when I buy adults rather than ducklings and goslings that the bought adults are more suspicious and aggressive than the adults I've raised myself. The best way to deal with aggression is to prevent it. When you bring your waterfowl home (especially with goslings, ducklings not so much) spend time with them. Goslings imprint on their parents and a when you are the one raising them you become the parent. Talk to them, let them nibble your clothing, the very young ones may try to burrow under your clothing, let them. Do this at least 4 times a week if not every day. Once geese associate you as a flock member at a very young age they will remember for the rest of their lives. The same goes for if the gosling had a bad experience when it was young. My Brown Chinese gander was badly injured by some puppies when he was about a week old. The puppies were just trying to play but they ended up ripping a hole in his neck a couple of inches wide, which for a week old gosling is a pretty big deal. To this day he hates dogs and will hiss and go out of his way to bully them if they come near.
Grey the Gander at 4 weeks
Going back to baby waterfowl in general though, here's a few things you should know:
- Set up a brooder like for chicks but under no circumstances allow access to open water. Baby waterfowl do not have the waterproofing oil in their feathers yet. Ducks (especially) and goslings love to play in water and will not come out unless you make them. If they were with their parents the parents would limit the access to water and have some of the mother's waterproofing rubbed on the babies. Supervise the babies when they're in water and make sure they're dry afterwards. They should be fine with full access to water by 6 weeks when they start to feather out.
- Waterfowl poop, a lot. The average duck poops every 15-20 minutes, the average goose every 12. An adult goose is capable of producing 2 lbs of droppings a day. Keep this in mind when setting up a brooder. The babies are fine in a normal brooder for about 1-2 weeks but after that production outpaces the sanitation. A rabbit hutch with a very small gauge wire floor set up a bit from the ground works well for young waterfowl.
- Warmth. Ducklings and goslings feather out much quicker and require much less brooding than baby chickens. Start them at about 90° F and decrease by 5°-10° Each week until you reach outside temperature, after that they don't require anymore heat. Use the birds reactions as a guide to where you should have the light. If it's at 90° and they're panting and trying to get away from the heat, you need to raise the light.
Peeps at a recent photo shoot
Raising waterfowl is a unique and rewarding experience. Well socialized birds (geese and ducks) will come up and "talk" to you when ever you're in the yard, honk and quack when somebody they don't know is there, and produce a lot of eggs perfect for baking (not to mention meat and feathers). I hope that this something you'll consider in the future.
Have fun!

Yes, it happened. It is different from what I thought. I had a bad ski accident a few years ago and dislocated my left shoulder. This impingement happened as a result of instable/unstable shoulder. Shoulder is the most wonderous joint of your body. It is held in space perfectly balanced to provide amazing degree of freedom.
I thought it is like normal shoulder pain I know. Now I know shoulder impingement is result of over-use and inflamed tendons and such. It is more like random pain here and there as the nerve gets pinched. It feels like burning, hot, upper arm, in the elbow, in the fingers. It is strange kind of pain where you can't pin point.
I did V5 and dyno on left hand reaching overhead. I put my weight on that shoulder after wide gaston. Well, it felt weird and I sat nursing it.
That night, I have this pain in the socket and elbow. I had shoulder pain before but this is different. It is like hot wire running through my arm. Shortening this story, after a visit to an orthopedic doctor and two shots of cortisone on my left shoulder. They give these shots as a way to prevent further nerve damage. There are two basic problems. One, those shots hurt for two days, just mild pain but present. Two, the shoulder is doing its own thing to settle back. On the third day, it feels good. I am doing rehab exercises.
Climbing wise, I know is that I am doing something wrong. I put too much stresses on same joints in same fashion repeatedly. The big question is how to recycle things; hands, feet, arms and shoulders. My trouble is I keep the same grips instead of switching and using different positions including getting used to utilize as little force as possible.
Spread tension; body tension but it means positioning one's body to reduce stress on feet and hands same way over and over again.
Rehabilitation! I am doing scapular stabilization first and doing no weight ROM exercises. ROM stands for Range Of Movement. Without using weight, one needs to stretch these tiny muscles and maintain or increase ROM. Once, I am warmed up and I am exercising general opposing muscles.
One thing one needs to be careful with is to exercise these shoulder muscles, one needs not to exceed 2 or 3 pounds weight. It is better to do free weight than elastic.
Despite of opposing muscle training, I neglected pectoral muscles and MD Peter Re of the Sports Medicine, the good doctor mentioned about my shoulder curvature. I suppose it tightens and makes you prone to shoulder problems. I remember pain around scapula, aka shoulder blade a few weeks ago. Listening to one's pain is an art.

Be well.

Heads up! Come check out our new forums, CurlTalk.
What hair care line is best for texturized hair?
I've been texturizing my hair for about two years now and so far so good but I'm having trouble finding a line that keeps my hair looking the way I want it and keeping it moisturized without piling gunk onto my head. I've been using the Soft and Beautiful line since that's the texturizer brand I buy as well as a couple other brands, but I wanted to know if there was something better. Also, I suffer from acne and my dermatologist recommends non-comedogenic products, but I have no idea if a line exists for that. Thanks for the help. (also, a line that doesn't burn a whole in my pocket? I'm a broke college student :/ )

|ps2pdf: PostScript-to-PDF converter
For other information, see the Ghostscript overview.
ps2pdf is implemented as a very small command script (batch file) that invokes Ghostscript, selecting a special "output device" called pdfwrite. In order to use ps2pdf, the pdfwrite device must be included as a device list when Ghostscript was built; see the documentation on building Ghostscript for details. The pdfwrite device is currently included in the makefiles for all platforms.
The usage for ps2pdf is
ps2pdf input.ps output.pdf
or, on Unix systems and some versions of Windows NT and OS/2
ps2pdf input.ps
which is equivalent to
ps2pdf input.ps input.pdf
The ps2pdf command script assumes that the Ghostscript executable is named gs. On DOS and MS Windows where the command-line executable has a different name, you must edit the script ps2pdf.bat if the DOS executable is named gs386: look for the line that says
set PS2PDFGS=gs
and change it to
set PS2PDFGS=gs386
Note that to run ps2pdf on MS Windows, you need the DOS executable: the Windows Program Manager's "run command doesn't allow you to run .bat files. Alternatively you can run the "console mode" Windows executable by changing the line above to
set PS2PDFGS=gswin32c
The most serious limitation of ps2pdf is that text in any font other than the fourteen Adobe base fonts (Courier, Times, and Helvetica families, Symbol, and Zapf Dingbats) is converted to bitmaps. ps2pdf also may convert strings to bitmaps if the string is in one of those base fonts but contains a character that uses a non-standard encoding.
ps2pdf implements setdistillerparams, and recognizes all of the parameters documented in Adobe Technical Note #5151 except for the ImageDict parameters, but only a subset have an effect:
Parameters Effective Ignored
General ASCII85EncodePages, CompatibilityLevel, CompressPages, CoreDistVersion, LZWEncodePages (see below), UseFlateCompression AutoRotatePages, ImageMemory, PreserveHalftoneInfo, PreserveOPIComments, PreserveOverprintSettings, TransferFunctionInfo, UCRandBGInfo General image AutoFilterxxxImages (see below), xxxImageDepth, xxxImageDownsampleType, xxxImageFilter, xxxImageResolution, DownsamplexxxImages, EncodexxxImages, MonoImageDict AntiAliasxxxImages, xxxACSImageDict, ColorImageDict, GrayImageDict Color image ConvertCMYKImagesToRGB ColorConversionStrategy, ConvertImagesToIndexed
Because of Unisys's threats regarding the Welch patent, ps2pdf cannot actually use LZW compression: instead, it treats all requests for LZW compression as calling for Flate compression if UseFlateCompression is true and CompatibilityLevel >= 1.2, and ignores them otherwise.
AutoFilterxxxImages doesn't examine the image to decide between JPEG and LZW/Flate compression: it always uses LZW/Flate compression.
Some PDF files created using ps2pdf work with Adobe Acrobat on Unix but fail using the MS Windows version of Acrobat. One error that has been observed using versions of Acrobat reader for Windows is: "There was an error processing a page. A rasterizer error occurred." This error has been observed using both Acrobat version 2.1 and the Alpha 2 release of Adobe Amber. (Adobe may have fixed this problem by now.)
ps2pdf does not yet process the new PDF 1.2 (Acrobat 3.x) BP, EP, SP, and OBJ and related pdfmarks. If the application uses these pdfmark commands (and few applications do), some material may be lost from the output file.
Despite the limitations of ps2pdf, the class of "suitable" documents is a large one. Many users report that the combination of ps2pdf with Acrobat is superior to using a generic PostScript viewer (psview or ghostview), particularly for documents with many pages where the navigational support in PDF files reduces the overhead involved in navigating conventional PostScript documents.
For certain documents, ps2pdf is much faster than Adobe Distiller, and may be suitable for run-time conversions. [George White remarks "I haven't seen a head to head comparison, but Distiller seems slower when running on what should be a faster system (for instance, Distiller on a PPC Mac vs a 25 MHz 68040 NeXT running ps2pdf), so I think this is fair -- also, one of Mark Doyle's postings indicated that Distiller was not fast enough for use as a run-time server. In contrast, I find that I can use ps2pdf as a post-processor during routine document creation."]
Thanks to George N. White III <email@example.com> of the Ocean Sciences Division of the Bedford Institute of Oceanography in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia for extensive testing of early versions of ps2pdf, and for contributing most of this writeup.

Social Media Marketing
Social Media Marketing is different than just the branding point of view. In this section we can dive deeper into how to use a platform to build an audience by marketing or sharing data that they enjoy. Most of us do each day with friends and family and in a lot of ways it comes natural. If you are trying to create a business or you have owned one for years and want some good insight then this is the section for that. Learning how to marketing using Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat or any of the ones that are commonly used can be a difficult proposition and one that I enjoy writing about.
There are companies that have teams to be on every social platform possible and the majority of businesses have no one except maybe the owner posts on a Facebook page or a teenager down the road set up their Twitter profile. If that describes you then I hope to help you get past that and look at social in a new way. It's possible to enjoy it and do business at the same time.

Taco Marine: Offering Boaters Unprecedented Interchangeable Accessorizing Capability
Over the past half century, TACO® Metals has developed a reputation for introducing innovative new products and concepts to the marine marketplace that have greatly enhanced boating and fishing lifestyles. TACO's engineers work closely with its OEMs, dealers and end-users at the outset of each new design to ensure the finished product offers outstanding value, performance and uncompromising quality. From towers and T-tops, to rub rails, to one of the most extensive lines of sportfishing equipment and accessories available today, Boat Depot relies on TACO's expertise to help them make their own businesses succeed.
Now, the Miami-based company has expanded its product offerings to include a comprehensive, ground-breaking product line that gives boaters and anglers the unprecedented capability to accessorize and personalize their boats to suit their individual needs. TACO's Accessory-ReadyTM cockpit system offers boaters a virtually unlimited choice of fully interchangeable, high quality products and accessories that can be used throughout their craft. Accessories can then be "swapped out" for different missions.
"Accessories can be added or removed depending on the purpose of the voyage. Fish during the day…cruise at night," said Mary Ellen Thomas, TACO Metals marketing director.
How it works :
At the heart of the innovative system are TACO's specially designed, patent-pending male and female Accessory-Ready Adapters, which "mate" to securely mount accessories where desired; they incorporate specially engineered splines that ensure precisely angled positioning. The adapters are incorporated into TACO's Accessory- Ready T-top and Leaning Post, as well as being offered as an add-on for accessorizing any boat, T-top, poling platform, console or transom. These portable adapters can be clamped-on or flushmounted; the only tool required is a standard Allen wrench for tightening the locking pin and for adding and positioning the accessory. Installing and removing accessories takes just a few seconds.
TACO's Accessory-Ready Adapters are available for multiple applications in multiple variations. Weld-on adapters allow fabricators and other OEM's to incorporate the adapters directly into the boat, tower, bridge, arch or just about anywhere an accessory could be utilized. Portable adapters also are available in a wide assortment. Clamp-on adapters are offered in multiple sizes designed to fit pipe and tube commonly found on T-tops, railings, poling platforms and ski arches. There is also a series of adapters for mounting to flat surfaces, such as hard tops, consoles, bridges, gunwales, bulkheads, transoms, etc.
Widespread benefits:
The Accessory-Ready system offers a wealth of benefits for OEM's, dealers, retailers and ultimately boat owners. OEM's can add immediate value to their products by offering Accessory-Ready Adapters, allowing for customization. This system also can help to prevent damage to accessories during shipment. Unlike conventional designs with accessories welded in place, Accessory-Ready accessories can be removed prior to shipping and reinstalled once delivered. Boat dealers can readily demonstrate to their customers, right on the showroom floor, how an Accessory-Ready boat can transform from a fish boat to a cruiser in a matter of minutes. An accessory can be changed without the customer having to change the mount.
TACO offers an assortment of Accessory- Ready accessories (with adapter included), including drink holders, filet tables, knife and pliers holders. There are also a countless number of readily available marine accessories that can be conveniently added with the help of TACO Accessory-Ready Adapters, and offer cross-selling benefits to the retailer, including:
• Mounts for navigation equipment, LED displays, binoculars, camera and antennas
• Speakers, mirrors for watching towed skiers, portable fans.
Boat Depot is an authorized distributor of Taco® Metals marine products.

Just as it began to pull itself together after the departure of its two best football programs, the Southern Conference now faces the loss of its premier basketball team.
Reports surfaced today that Davidson College, winner of the last two and five of the last eight SoCon tournament titles, will announce its move to the Atlantic 10 on Wednesday.
The reports from Sports Illustrated and ESPN took SoCon commissioner John Iamarino by surprise. But they were not denied by Davidson officials, who advised media "to keep mid-morning open" on Wednesday.
"I have heard nothing from Davidson," Iamarino said this afternoon. "That would surprise me. Other than that, I have no comment."
The SoCon already is losing football powers Georgia Southern and Appalachian State, with nine FCS titles between them, to the FBS Sun Belt Conference. College of Charleston is heading to the Colonial Athletic Association.
Last week, Iamarino said the SoCon will pay campus visits to Mercer, East Tennessee State and VMI as part of a process that could result in invitations to those schools. Mercer and ETSU, a former SoCon member, are part of the Atlantic Sun. VMI, another former SoCon member, plays in the Big South.

Indiana (Pa.) Falls, 1-0, To No. 1 Shippensburg On Disputed Goal
Sept. 23, 2009
Courtesy of Indiana (Pa.)
The IUP field hockey concluded one of the most difficult road swings in program history with a 1-0 loss at Shippensburg on a controversial goal by Laura Wylde with nine minutes expired in overtime.
The Crimson Hawks lost to Bloomsburg, East Stroudsburg and Shippensburg in their last three games by a combined total of four goals. Shippensburg is ranked No. 1 in the latest National Field Hockey Coaches Association poll, Bloomsburg is No. 2 and East Stroudsburg is ranked third. The three teams had a combined record of 25-2 entering Tuesday's action.
IUP dropped to 2-6 overall and 2-2 in the PSAC West and is two games behind division leader Shippensburg, which remained undefeated at 10-0 overall and 3-0 in conference play.
Shippensburg outshot IUP 11-6 and took eight penalty corners to four for the Crimson Hawks but was unable to score until Ashley Taylor took a shot that Wylde deflected in chest high for the game winner despite protests from the IUP bench that it should have been ruled a dangerous play.
The Crimson Hawks had a chance to win the game just a minute and a half earlier but a shot by Anouk Sickman was saved by Raider goalkeeper Amanda Houser, her fifth of the game. Renee Lustenhouwer made three saves for IUP and Trish Morris made a defensive save.
IUP is off until October 3 when Mercyhurst visits Miller Stadium for a 7 p.m. contest. The Crimson Hawks will be looking to avenge a 1-0 loss to the Lakers September 5 in Erie.
