Golf is an intricate game. Many studies have found that a professional golfer’s skill level in each aspect of golf (putting, driving distance, short game) have a direct impact on his or her performance and prize earnings.
Imagine you are a professional golfer or at least an aspiring one. You want to know which aspect of golf is most payable so you can refine your game to maximize your prize earnings. Without looking at the actual results, please vote in the poll below. It will be interesting to see how the poll results fare against the actual empirical results.

Open Forum: National Flags
October 14, 2008 § 4 Comments
I am a big fan of the Olympics. My favorite part of the Olympics is the parade of nations–a showcase of all the countries in the world, their national flags, and the best athletes on earth. One can learn so much about a country’s history and culture just by observing its national flag. A national flag can help inspire a nation; it is the greatest of treasures. This begs the following question:
Which country has the best national flag, asthetically and symbolically? Explain why.
Good Morning, Mr. Simon
