   The only similar 'service' I've seen - we were contacted about a week ago by Distinctive Assets in LA - they put together the bags for the Oscar nominees (non-winner nominees) and will get your product in there for $5k, or will introduce yo

    You could do something with high/low to bet if a water temp is going to be hotter or colder than a starting temp if you wanted to make it a game of chance. You could do something as basic as rock/paper/scissors, or tic tac toe. Pick n games

    Looking on Charity Water's site, backing out the math, your per-week cost is a little less than $0.02? If you're looking to mimic to some small extent the success of FreeRice.com you're going to want to make the action trivial - looking at

    Incidentally, for those who don't know, Graham and Dodd's Security Analysis is one of -the- books on value-based investing, equivalent to K&R for C programmers. Further, the 'g' of g&d has nothing to do with the 'g' in 'pg.'

    Thanks! This is exactly what we need to hear. I'll make a point of updating copy and getting a new video in place shortly (we're definitely experiencing some temp slowdowns due to traffic).
