The Pro $12.98 Butch Harmon is the world’s number one golf coach. He taught Tiger Woods through one of the greatest stretches of victories in golf history (and, perhaps even more conspicuously, did not teach Tiger Woods following his unprecedented run), as well as superstars like Greg Norman, Adam Scott, Fred Couples, Darren Clarke, Natalie Gulbis, and Davis Love III. How did he become such a legendary teacher and mentor? The answer is simple: He learned from watching his father.The Harmons are the First Family of golf, and Claude Harmon, Sr., was the greatest of them all. His skill as a player, an innovator, a teacher, a devoted father, a loyal friend, and a peer of giants such as Ben Hogan has gone largely unappreciated by all but those who knew him best. In this book by his son, he finally gets his due. In The Pro, Butch Harmon paints a compelling portrait of an era in sports before the emergence of big media and bigger money, and shows how the lessons he learned about life and golf at his father’s knee made him the man he is today.The Pro is both a family and a golf memoir, as well as an inside look at what it takes to teach the Tigers of the world. It describes how Butch and his brothers, who are also teachers, transfer their father’s unique wit, wisdom, and philosophy to the next generation of golfers. Sometimes their advice relates to the game, sometimes they simply offer words of encouragement and motivation, sometimes they make pointed criticisms intended to shock their students into focus, and sometimes they try to impart simple advice about “walking around through life.” The Harmon brothers are teachers who share a special quality: All of their lessons are passed down from their father.Millions of golf fans know Butch Harmon; many are even familiar with his father and brothers. But never before have we been given such an intimate look at life among the legends of golf. The Pro is the story of an extraordinary father and son that will resonate with anyone who has ever looked back on life and recognized the wisdom of their parents’ teachings."Golf's hard," Dad would say, pointing a meaty finger at me as if he were about to reveal the secret of the Rosetta Stone. “Good golf is damn hard, and championship golf is something only a few will ever see. But that’s how it should be. If it were easy, everybody would do it. And where’s the fun in that?”From Butch Harmon, the world’s number one golf coach, comes the inside story of how he learned everything he knows about golf and life from his father, Claude Harmon, Sr. Both a family memoir and a reminiscence of growing up among the legends of sport, The Pro is a portrait of one extraordinary family and the game that will carry their legacy for years to come.From the Hardcover edition.

Digital Drum




Does anyone know about the OSP DD-502 DIGITAL Drum Kit that's advertised on Ebay?

I just wanted to know if anyone has any info on this kit,since there isn't any out there on the web.Is it worth the money,does it sound good,etc.Thank you.

This is almost the same kit as Guitar Center's "Simmons" set. Same brain, slightly different pads. I played this kit in a store awhile back. The pads are like remo Practice Pads - loud! - much louder than the rubber ones on the "Simmons" set and ten times louder than mesh. Acoustic noise will probably be an issue with this one but it is cheap and great for a beginner with a limited budget.

USB Drive and Data Failure

Globalization is the biggest achievement of human beings in this era and for upcoming generations. It has changed the entire perception of every individual relating to human needs and civilizations. A Chinese citizen asking for a Coke, an African enjoying his lunch at McDonald’s and an American child playing Japanese video games are all examples of globalization. Thus, no organization wants to contract its limit over the boundaries of its nation, going global has become the limit.

We all know globalization is only possible with a strong IT backbone. Therefore, information should be transferred within seconds, able to be shared simultaneously around the globe, should be portable and easily accessible. Hence, to meet this stance in IT, storage devices with lightning fast data transferring have been introduced.

USB Flash Drives:

A USB flash drive which is also known as a flash drive, flash stick or thumb drive was commercially introduced by trek technology and IBM in 2000. These USB drives are composed of NAND flash memory data storage wafers in devices that are typically of low cost and are easily removable/rewriteable and weigh less than an ounce, all that with a USB (universal serial bus) interface.

USB flash drives are the new age replacements of older storage devices like: floppy disks, CD’s and Zip drives which were extremely small, slow to transfer data and had low storage capacity as compared to flash drives. A survey made on thumb drives and its uses around the world showed that approximately 88.22 million USB drives were shipped around the globe in the year 2005, in 2006 this increased to 115.7 million. Similarly, Gartner Dataquest statistics shows that on average there is a 100% rise in the number of USB drives users purchased worldwide.

The Merits of USB Flash Drives:

• USB drives are very economical as they are very cheap and easily accessible.
• USB drives have zero possibility of dust and scratches of the saved data as these devices have zero moving parts.
• The data storing capability is enormously as compared to CD/DVD’s, floppy disk and other storage devices.
• They are extremely handy and lightweight so they are a good portable device.
• As compared to hard drives these USB drives use very little power for storing and removing data.
• Booting up a computer is possible with flash drives.

The Demerits of USB Flash Drives:

• Every flash drives depending upon its memory and function has limited cycles of data writes and removes. Thus, they cannot be made a primary storage device as they will render useless over time.
• Although these drives are very handy, the risk of virus attack and data failure is a major problem seen in flash drives.
• USB drives are made fragile, they are lightweight. Thus, the possibility of external damages and getting crushed is unquestionable.
• Being small in size the risk of misplacing, theft or lost is likely.
• Most flash drives ignore the write-protect mechanism.
• Being small and portable the risk of storing confidential information is not applicable in these devices because they can be easily stolen and smuggled. Huge business organizations have to deal with this issue.

USB Data Failure and Data Recovery:

USB drives have become one of the major sources of data transferring  sources since 2000. And along with this, the rate of data failure due to virus attacks and device failures is also increasing day by day. Many data recovering software products are available in the market but due to the lack of knowledge and mishandling even a simple recovery becomes a nightmare for the user.

Data recovery is possible via data recovery software but knowing the right software for the recovery and using its functions correctly is very important for a success in recovering the data. Sixty-five percent of data loss falls under a Tier 1 type recovery process; data loss case can easily be fixed economically as compared to Tier 2. It is often observed that each case becomes much more difficult to recover from due to mishandling by end users.

Data recovery handled professionally is the best solution for any kind of data loss from your pen drive, hard drive, memory stick or any other storage device. A systematic scan of the damaged device is essential for starting the right type of action for each attempt at data recovery. Depending on your file system combination, the drives operating system and document types there are different ways to handle data loss.

It is always best to consult with expert guidance for scanning and determining your data loss type and severity because even a minor mistake can permanently erase your files and data forever.

Data Recovery From Logically Damaged Flash Drives:

Logical damage is usually caused by virus attacks and power outages. A virus attack on your device corrupts your stored data and hampers the file system which leads to the absence of data in your device or problems in showing you the corrupt files. Similarly, power outages prevent data being completely transferred to your device. Hence, different options are  used to get these errors under control.

In some cases, logical damage is considered to be the main problem leading to the wrong actions taken which creates serious data loss. All data recovery operations are carried out in special labs where humidity, pressure and temperature are maintained.

Data Recovery From Physically Damaged Flash Drives:

Flash drives are fragile and one of the benefits of its fragileness is its lightweight which makes these drives handy and portable. But the risk of these drives becoming broken and damaged is high.

A physically damaged drive if managed properly can have a 100% success in data recovery. Recovering data from a physically injured device requires multiple techniques. Some recoveries include simple scanning and data reading whereas in other complicated losses a special disk-imaging procedure is used. Specialized microscopes are often used for physically injured devices & data recovery.

This procedure is complicated; every readable bit from the surface needs to be retrieved. Once the data is recovered all of it is transferred to a safe medium; experts perform different tests to determine the logical damage on the device if there is any.

The Inventive Spirit of African Americans $27.48 In this important study, former United States primary patent examiner Patricia Carter Sluby pays homage to the inventive spirit of African Americans. Beginning with the contributions of enslaved Africans brought to American shores, Sluby introduces inventors and patent holders from all fields up to and including the leading edge of today's technology. Along with such recognizable figures as George Washington Carver and Madam C. J. Walker, readers will discover little-known or forgotten pioneers of devices such as a tobacco substitute, a home security system, and a portable heart monitor. Particular attention is given to the innovations of women inventors and scientists. Products to ease domestic life, promote the efficiency of industrial processes, and improve the safety of leisure activities all bear the hallmarks of these creative minds. Sluby details the plight of inventive slaves during the antebellum and Civil War eras. She juxtaposes their efforts with those of free blacks of the same period. Reconstruction saw significant agricultural and industrial innovations by African Americans, some of which would permanently change American industry. Military inventions during the course and aftermath of both world wars showcase the diversity of minority ideas in an age of rapid technological advances. The closing chapter recounts the ongoing efforts of modern thinkers and their contributions in the high-tech and medical fields at the vanguard of the new century.

The Portable American Realism Reader $10.69 The Portable American Realism Reader collects forty-seven of the best stories published in the United States between 1865 and 1918 - the most celebrated period of short fiction in American literary history.

The volume`s editors have also expanded the sweep of American Realism to embrace works by less well known African-American, Asian-American, and Native-American writers. In addition, there is a special emphasis on the contributions of women writers to this crucial period of American letters, with stories by Kate Chopin, Willa Cather, Edith Wharton, Sarah Orne Jewett, and Mary Austin, among others.

Tony Williams (Drums) - Spring $9.83 Personnel: Tony Williams (drums); Wayne Shorter, Sam Rivers (tenor saxophone); Herbie Hancock (piano); Gary Peacock (bass).Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey on August 12, 1965.Personnel: Tony Williams (drums); Sam Ribers, Sam Rivers, Wayne Shorter (tenor saxophone); Herbie Hancock (piano); Gary Peacock (bass instrument, bass guitar).Audio Remasterer: Rudy Van Gelder.Drummer Tony Williams recorded SPRING, his groundbreaking sophomore LP, when he was only 19 years old. Despite his youth, however, he was already a veteran of the jazz scene, having played with luminaries such as Miles Davis, Jackie Maclean, and Eric Dolphy. His played all over the kit, and though his tricky, unorthodox time-keeping might sometimes give the impression of wild unpredictability, he always managed to keep a tight rein over the momentum of any session in which he participated. His work on SPRING is only surpassed by his equally mesmerizing playing on Eric Dolphy`s seminal OUT TO LUNCH, to which SPRING is often compared. He is accompanied here by Wayne Shorter, Gary Peacock, and Sam Rivers. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.

Distant Bugles, Distant Drums $17.98 Winner of a Southwest Book Award for Nonfiction. Although most accounts of the Civil War's New Mexico campaign have focused on the Confederate effort, Distant Bugles, Distant Drums brings to life the epic march of 1,000 men recruited from Colorado's towns, farms, and mining camps to fight 3,000 Confederate soldiers in New Mexico. Drawing on a host of previously overlooked diaries, letters, and contemporary newspaper accounts, military historian Flint Whitlock tells the stories of Union heroes such as Colorado governor William Gilpin and Colonels John Slough, John Chivington, Kit Carson, and Edward Canby, along with average soldiers—men on both sides who marched, fought, and overcame immense distances and privations. On their way to Colorado's rich mines in search of gold and silver for the Confederacy's dwindling coffers, Confederate leader Henry Hopkins Sibley and his 3,000 Texans won a series of engagements with Union troops along the Rio Grande until they were turned back by the ragtag, hastily assembled Coloradoans in an epic conflict at Glorieta Pass, just east of Santa Fe. The western theater shaped the fate of the West and of the nation, and its story is a powerful one of miners, farmers, and peacetime officers turning themselves overnight into soldiers and combat leaders. Distant Bugles, Distant Drums looks into the soldiers' lives, providing a detailed look at life on the Western frontier missing from other books on the Civil War. Historians and readers will find in Distant Bugles, Distant Drums a fresh perspective on the battle for the nation and on the nineteenth-century West
