The gays behind Chances Dances presents Queeroake tonight
2009-08-03 19:46:00 You're probably used to heading down to Subtearranean (2011 North Ave.) for good queer fun by now, so add the first Monday of every month to your list. Mel Racho and Latham Zeafoss of Chances Dances present Queeroake, which is exactly what you think it is, and tonight its the event's debut.For $1 admission, you can sign up to sing songs by Mariah Carey, Lady Gaga and the like. Since it's Queeroake, I can only hope they have songs by Tegan and Sara, Le Tigre, the Gossip and some oldies but goodies such as Tracy Chapman's "Fast Car." Mel Racho's Twitter hints at a few of the tracks she's got for the night, though, including Monica and 112's cover of...
Assessing The Cubs' Chances Using Black Jack's Formula
2009-07-09 18:33:00 Because most Cubs fans have never had the occasion to see one, this is what the World Series Trophy looks like There have been a lot of good things about the move to ChicagoNow, mostly involving me now getting to bug the Trib's Jimmy Greenfield with tech issues rather than gravedigger, who was prone to foul language and throwing things in my direction. Oh, and there's the avatars! And getting to use all Trib Co's photos without licensing issues! And, of course, there's Jack. Though I've spent the majority of my life hating the White Sox and their fans, I never thought I'd develop a relationship with one of them that would allow me to harass him on a...
The McDowell Formula and the Sox' Chances
2009-07-07 19:25:00 One of my first ChicagoNow blogs discussed the "McDowell formula" for a successful season and a potential World series run while explaining why Sox fans shouldn't worry about the Royals!As we approach the season's half way point, the pieces to this Championship formula seems to be almost falling into place for the Sox.With two first half starts remaining, Mark Buerhle is on a 20 win pace and his ERA remains solidly around 3.00. He's on a pace for 220 or so innings. So, 18-20 wins, 3.00 ERA and 220 innings. Cy Young potential. And being at least a top CY finisher will add MVP votes as well.And if Bobby Jenks rolls out 45-50 saves, which is in reach, and chips...
Direct Affiliate Marketing Will Decrease Your Chances of Online Success
2009-06-24 13:52:00 Affiliate marketing is the simplest way to get up and running online and start making money. It also has the lowest start up costs because you don't have to create your own product, ship, or fulfill. You don't need any staff because, well, you don't deal with customers either. But as simple as it is, some people think direct affiliate marketing is the best way to go. It isn't. But first, let me define what I mean by direct affiliate marketing because you may be thinking something differently than I am.When you sign up for an affiliate opportunity, the company gives you an affiliate link. That link, of course, goes right to the corporate website so it looks just like their own site, only it's got some ID tags at the end that signifies it's your visitor if a sale happens.Now, the biggest mistake you can make -- and this is how I define direct affiliate marketing -- is thinking you can just promote that link without building a web site first. People will just spam it on craigslis...

Why Your Chances Of Not Getting Your First China Order Are So High.
2008-11-17 16:42:00 Just about every week, my firm gets contacted by a US company that ordered product from China and never got anything or got something multiple levels of magnitude less than what they ordered. Much of the time, this is a first order from China. The US company is usually asking us what they can do to recover and most of the time (because the amount at stake is too little to hire an American law firm), I tell them to keep trying to recover and to retain a Chinese law firm to assist. I also tell them not to order from China again without knowing exactly from whom they are ordering and without having someone on their side monitoring product quality. I also suggest they have a contract on their next go round that will increase the likelihood of their getting good quality and decrease the degree of difficulty in their recovering if they do not. David Dayton over at the Silk Road International Blog, who knows as much about the nitty gritty of Chinese factories as anyone, just did a p...

In a series of innovative and gutsy marketing moves, first he invited people to join a new networking site called Triiibes if they would preorder his book. Then, before the book was officially published, he sent a free copy to everyone who had ordered and paid for a book. With that surprise copy came a letter of thanks, and a request that everyone keep and read the free copy, but give the one they paid for to someone else. Absolutely stunning!

TPS resuscitates Huckabee?s veep chances
2008-06-09 17:51:00 MAKES MIKE CAMPBELL LT. GOV. OF NORTH CAROLINA The story we broke Saturday of former presidential candidate Mike Huckabee’s breakfast table heroics has been making its way through pretty much every major news source in the country. That includes FoxNews, which had Huckabee and the man he performed the Heimlich maneuver on, Mike Pittenger, on Fox & Friends this morning. Although they initially cited The Palmetto Scoop on their online coverage, this morning’s FoxNews broadcast showed me no love. But they did refer to former South Carolina Lieutenant Governor candidate Mike Campbell — who I quoted in my story — as the man Huckabee saved. They also said he is the Lt. Gov. of North Carolina, which I guess would be a promotion. But while FoxNews skimped on using TPS as their source, a number of others were more generous. Among those attributing TPS with the news were John Boy and Billy on The Big Show, which means our site has made new inroads with the die-...

Bad Bounce Sinks Kenny Perry's Chances
2008-05-20 06:57:00 Kenny Perry got a bad bounce Sunday at the AT&T Classic at the TPC Sugarloaf last year Ryuji Imada put his ball in the water on the 18th hole to lose to Zach Johnson this year Perry got a bad bounce off a tree as his ball ended up bouncing off the tree right across the green into the pond that guards the 18th hole. Perry who's been playing well lately couldn't pull out any miracles and Ryuji Imada won with a par on the first sudden death hole. Next year it will be Perry turn to win I wonder who'll be the won he beats. Check out the video of his shot below.

Memorial Cup chances unchanged for Rangers with Steve Mason on shelf
2008-04-23 16:05:00 The hockey gods weren't looking too kindly on Kitchener Rangers fans last week. When news came out that Steve Mason, a Columbus Blue Jackets prospect and hotshot Rangers goaltender, was going under the knife for a knee issue, you could hear the collective groan coming from fans and management.The prognosis, post-surgery? Four-to-six weeks recovery with the Memorial Cup slated to start only four weeks from now. Yes, the math sucks.Luckily for the Rangers, they've got another stud in net, a diamond-in-the-rough if you will, that has stepped up to the plate.Rookie Josh Unice has been just short of spectacular since replacing Mason against the Sarnia Sting and Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. He's won 6 of 7 and sports a 2.35 GAA in that span.‘Hounds fans must have thought they hit paydirt with the switch. Monday night, during Game 4, fans were heard chanting ‘You're not Mason' towards Unice. They're right, he's not, but that's not the greatest of news for Soo fans.As I ...

How Is It Possible To Increase Chances of Conceiving a Boy?
2008-04-12 15:54:00 Gender selection of your un-conceived child is a very hot topic nowadays. There are several different methods out there that increase chances of conceiving a boy, many of which have shown some very interesting results. Of course, as with all natural treatments, there are some that are not based in any scientific fact whatsoever. Regardless of this, however, whether you are trying to conceive boy or girl, you can increase your chances by following a few simple steps. It used to be that you did not even know the sex of the child until it was born. Within the past couple of decades, determining the sex of the unborn baby has become very easy thanks to sonograms and other tests that can be done. What if there was a way, however, that you could know before the child was even conceived that it was going to be a boy? This can be accomplished by following a simple program. It may take a few months leading up into the conception of the child, in order to determine accurately when the best t...

Chelsea’s Chances Decline With Pantomime Dames In Charge
2008-04-04 18:40:00 “It’s just not fair,” seemed to be the biggest criticism a United fan could fling in to the face of a Chelsea fan on the attack, and it felt pitiful and weak. The press told us United were in decline whilst Chelsea were playing arguably the most efficient football the Premiership had ever seen. The opposition didn’t have a go at Chelsea, the same way they do against United, because it seemed a helpless task. This side were solid, capable of luring you in to a sense of false security, and then they’d pounce, score a goal or two, and it was game over. In the 2004-2005 season, they won an impressive 29 league games, but only on 17 occasions were they winning at half time. In fact, if the league was done on half time scores, Chelsea would have been some 8 points behind the leaders, not the 12 points in front that they finished. But that’s what made them so scary. They were so relaxed, so self composed, that they wouldn’t really turn it on until ...
